That took care of the pain?
:19:20
I could kiss you.
:19:28
No food.
:19:32
I'm painless.
:19:38
What would you do if you had
three or four months to live?

:19:44
I'd eat a lot of red meat.
:19:47
Good for you.
:19:49
What would you do?
:19:53
Build a house.
:19:55
Yeah? What kind of house?
:19:59
You know what
mortise and tenon is?

:20:04
I've got every part of it ready.
It's like a jigsaw puzzle.

:20:08
Only pieces now waiting
to make sense.

:20:13
Been through design review...
:20:14
the planning commission,
city council.

:20:22
No one's really said...
:20:23
that four months
is all you have, have they?

:20:27
Nobody's even pretended
to offer treatment.

:20:34
So you tell me,
when would you start...

:20:37
eating red meat?
:20:41
Can you build a house
in four months?

:20:43
I can die trying.
:20:48
Good for you.
:20:50
I've not been touched in years.
:20:55
Really?
No, I mean, not a friend?

:20:59
Your mother?
People have to be touched.
