No, Mort.
:18:04
What I meant was we're
not together at the moment.

:18:07
He's coming over later. He hardly ever
comes here. I usually go to his house.

:18:13
There's a useful detail.
Thanks for that.

:18:15
Don't ask, then.
It was working just fine that way.

:18:18
I think you should have him
over to the house more.

:18:20
Such a nice house. I like it.
I mean, I love it. That's why I bought it.

:18:24
Goodbye, Mort.
:18:27
Goodbye, Amy.
:18:34
Shit. Shit. Shit.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

:18:57
-You read it?
-I did.

:19:00
I imagine it rang a bell, didn't it?
:19:03
Oh, it certainly did.
:19:06
When did you write it?
:19:07
I thought you'd ask that.
:19:09
That's the whole point.
:19:11
Two writers have the same story,
it's all about who wrote the words first.

:19:14
-Wouldn't you say that's true?
-I suppose so.

:19:17
I suppose that's why I came
all the way up here from Mississippi.

:19:29
I wrote it seven years ago, 1 997.
:19:33
How'd you get it?
:19:35
That's what I really want to know.
:19:37
How in the hell did a big
money-scribbling asshole like you...

:19:41
...get down to a little shitsplat town
in Mississippi...

:19:44
...and steal my goddamn story?
:19:47
-Drop it.
-Drop it?

:19:49
Drop it. What in the hell
do you mean, drop it?

:19:53
You said you wrote your story in 1 997.
I wrote mine in late '94.

:19:57
It was published for the first time
in June 1 995 in a magazine.
