:03:02
You know, Homer, of course?
:03:05
And I made his name Wells
because I could tell he was...
:03:10
very deep.
:03:13
In truth,
Nurse Angela named him.
:03:15
Her father drilled wells, and she once
owned a cat named Homer.
:03:18
Bye-bye, Homer.
:03:25
- Good night,
you Princes of Maine,
- Can we see the doctor?
:03:28
You Kings of New England.
:03:30
- Good night.
- Doctor?
:03:33
Doctor?
There's something wrong with him.
:03:36
- He never makes a sound.
- He didn't cry.
:03:39
Orphan babies learn
there's no point in it.
:03:43
Do you think we could have a look
at someone a little different?
:03:52
Thus was Homer Wells returned.
He was too happy a baby.
:03:56
- Bye, Homer.
:03:58

:04:05

:04:16
Nobody's gonna hurt you
any more.
:04:19
Here in St.
Cloud's, I try to consider with
each rule I make or break...
:04:23
that my first priority
is an orphan's future.
:04:26
Twice adopted,
twice returned.
:04:30
It didn't bode well.
:04:36
And yet it was always clear to
me that he was a special boy.
:04:40
- Near the angle of the rib. And...
:04:44
- It was with
Homer's future in mind...
- Homer?
:04:46
- That I began his tutorials.
- If you're going to stay at St. Cloud's,
:04:50
I expect you to be of use.
:04:52
I admit
that our lessons were, in part,
:04:55
- the simple expression
of a father's love.
- Homer.
:04:59
But in failing to
withhold love...
