:26:01
Perhaps you could
humor us with a guess.
:26:06
-Thirty?
-Thirty.
:26:07
And of that 30, there isn't one person
who knows the author of that passage.
:26:12
l find that remarkable.
Don't you, Mr. Coleridge?
:26:17
Perhaps we should back into this.
:26:19
ln looking at this, what, if any,
conclusions might we be able to draw?
:26:26
You mean about the author?
:26:28
About anything.
:26:32
Do any of the words
strike you as unusual?
:26:38
Feel free to view this as
the appropriate time for a response.
:26:45
''Ere.''
:26:46
''Ere.'' And why is that unusual?
:26:50
Because...
:26:51
...it sounds old.
:26:53
lt does sound old, doesn't it?
:26:56
And you know why
it sounds old, Mr. Coleridge?
:27:01
Because it is old.
More than 200 years old.
:27:03
Written before your father was born,
before your father's father was born.
:27:07
But that still does not
excuse the fact...
:27:10
...that you don't know who wrote it,
now does it, Mr. Coleridge?
:27:16
l'm sorry, sir, l don't--
:27:19
You, of all people in this room,
should know who wrote that passage.
:27:23
And do you know why, Mr. Coleridge?
:27:26
l repeat, do you know why?
:27:28
Just say your name, man.
:27:32
Did you have something
to contribute, Mr. Wallace?
:27:38
l just said that
he should say his name.
:27:40
And why would it be helpful
for Mr. Coleridge to say his name?
:27:44
Because that's who wrote it.
:27:47
Very good, Mr. Wallace.
:27:51
Perhaps your skills...
:27:53
...do extend a bit farther
than basketball.
:27:57
lf we can turn to page--
You may be seated, Mr. Coleridge.
