of my little Cleopatra kitty?

169

No.
No? I think you would remember if I did.

170
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:19,849
It's the story-- You know, when I was a
little girl, I had this cat named Cleopatra.

171
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,731
Every spring, she'd jump
the fence, get pregnant

172
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:27,010
and always end up
with a litter of exactly two kittens.

173
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:28,770
Two kitties, huh?
Two kitties.

174
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,928
Every time, every year,
two cats.

I mean, it's just amazing.

176
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,766

and was having lunch with my dad

177
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,969
and I was remembering--
Mentioning little Cleopatra,

178
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,281
and he was like:

179
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:46,202
"The hardest thing I ever had to do
was to kill those cute little kittens."

180
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:47,606
And I was like, "What?"

181
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,531
It turns out-- Listen to this.

182
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,644
There were sometimes
up to seven kittens in that litter.

183
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:54,887
Oh, no.

184
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,042
He would take five of them,
Oh, no.

185
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,407
Put them into a bag
with a bunch of ether.

He had forgotten the lie he
and my mom had told me as a kid.

189
00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:09,729
How did he decide which ones to kill?
I asked him that.

190
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,447
"Did you take the fluffiest? Cutest?"
Right.

Can I ask a question?

603
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,287
Please?
ANNA: Yeah.

604
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,131
When you guys Skype,
do you, you know--?

605
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,608
Do you go a little crazy?
Oh, God, you're being so vulgar.

606
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,087
I'm just being
an amateur anthropologist

607
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,124
interested in virtual worlds
on a theoretical level.

608
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,561
So now you're an anthropologist?
Yeah.

future, I'm not making this up,

610

but is gonna be just like plugging in,
attaching something to your genitals,

611
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:42,171
and you'll be having virtual intercourse
with anyone of your choice.

You'll be able to program in

More and more of our experiences

feel when a computer can write a book

It'll never happen.

621

It's only a question about
when it's going to happen.

622
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,250
I think I'm gonna feel about it the same
way Kasparov felt when they could

623

no longer compete with that computer.

624
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,365
Right. Nobody thought a computer
could beat our best.

"A machine lacks
that ineffable human instinct."

626
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,244
And then-- You know,
and now we can't even compete.

627
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,081
I saw a documentary where they were
doing an experiment on a lab rat.

628
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:35,770
And he was wired up

629
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,930
and he could push a switch
and have an orgasm.

630
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,569
And so the scientists were sort of
laughing at this pathetic little creature

631
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,810
while it ignored his food and water
and didn't do anything else.

632
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,684
And eventually it just died.

633
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,247
I mean,
I think that's the future of humanity.

634
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,051
You know, just:
ALL: Ha-ha-ha.

CELINE:
And die.

636
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,408
Well, well, maybe so,

637
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:04,686
but every generation believes that
they're witnessing the end of the world,

638
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,526
but I feel
that I'm actually living it.

639
00:35:07,720 --> 00:35:12,248
Okay, I have a question for you, Patrick. I
think a lot of people are feeling that way.

640
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,842
That we're this kind of
pleasure-obsessed, porn-addled,

641
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,328

ceding our humanity to technology

642
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,649
at the same moment that
computers are becoming sentient.

643
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,322
So, what my question is,
is this notion of self to begin with.

644
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:30,360
Well, it's written over the portals
to the temple of Apollo at Delphi.

645
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,605
It says, "gnothi seauton, <i>"</i>
which means "Know thyself."

646
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,280
But we're kind of 99 percent
automated already.

647
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,563
No. Our personality
or this thing we think of as ourself

648
00:35:40,720 --> 00:35:43,326
is a tiny fraction
of what the brain is doing.

649
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,802
Most of it is automated body functions.
What is it we're ceding?

650
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,886
No, if this notion of self is such a
small percentage of you, sweetie,

651
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,407

so much about it?

661
00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:22,122
We kind of, sort of fell in love
a little bit, and then we--

662
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:26,888
A bit. Then we lost track of each other.
A decade later, we ran into each other.

663
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,407
We didn't run into each other.
We didn't?

I let the ball go down the middle.
She can't beat me.

682
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:18,885
It builds their confidence.

683
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:23,011
If I didn't let him win at every game,
we would never have sex.

but he's actually a closet macho.

It felt like we were doing something
important. This was our time.

897
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,047
But you were all arrogant
little pricks.

898
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,089
Heh. No. Well-- All right, maybe.
Ha-ha-ha.

899
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:51,802
I don't know. It grew out
of all this energy and this creativity

900
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,002
or whatever ambitions people had.

901
00:48:54,240 --> 00:48:58,131
I think you gotta be a little deluded
to stay motivated.

902
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,369
Young men have this thing
about comparing themselves.

903
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,689
They have all these signposts
they judge themself by.

904
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,207
You used to do that all the time.
Do what?

905
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,880
It was like, uh,
"Rimbaud wrote this by 17."

906
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:14,329
Oh, yeah, definitely. Balzac wrote a book
before breakfast, so what am I doing?

907
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,524
Women don't think that way as much.
You don't think so?

908
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,491
No. We have much less
to compare ourselves to maybe.

909
00:49:20,720 --> 00:49:25,089
Women who achieve anything, first time you
hear about them, they're in their 50s.

910
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,443
It was so hard for them
to get any recognitions before then.

911
00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,849
They struggled for 3O years
or they raised kids

912
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,886
and were stranded at home before they
could finally do what they want.

913
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:40,125
Actually, you know, it's kind of freeing.
We don't have to spend our lives

914
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,248
comparing ourselves
to Martin Luther King,

915
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:43,890
Ha-ha-ha.
Gandhi, Tolstoy.

916
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:45,690
What about Joan of Arc, right?

917
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,889
I mean, she was a teenager,
and she saved France, so--

918
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,447
Who wants to be Joan of Arc?
Forget France.

919
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,007
She was burned at the stake
and a virgin, okay?

920
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,401
Ha-ha-ha. Okay.
Nothing I aspire to.

921
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,410
What a great achievement.
Ha-ha-ha.

922
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:02,410
Oh, God.
What?

923
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:03,841
No, nothing.

924
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:07,408
What?
This is so weird. Ha, ha.

925
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:09,882
What do you mean?
Just this.

926
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,970
Us, walking,
having a conversation

927
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,925
about something else
than scheduling, food, work.

928
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:19,920
Yeah, how long's it been since we
just wandered around bullshitting?

929
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,888
Do you hear what I hear?

930
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:25,403
The sea?
No.

931
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:28,763
What? Oh, no small feet.
Mm-hm.

932
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,043
No-- Nothing being knocked over,
nothing we have to clean up,

933
00:50:32,240 --> 00:50:34,049
no injustices being done.

934
00:50:34,240 --> 00:50:37,562
Yeah. So when was the last time?
Mm.

935
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,810
When we had nowhere we had to be?
Yeah.

936
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:43,727
Remember Luxembourg Gardens?
Yeah.

937
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,764
Used to kick your ass at Ping-Pong?
Congratulations.

938
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:48,843
You beat a woman pregnant
with twins.

939
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:51,890
It's better than losing
to a pregnant woman with twins.

940
00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,407
Okay? Heh, heh.
Oh, God.

941
00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:55,925
You know what I think?

942
00:50:56,080 --> 00:51:00,051
From the time we leave our
parents' house until we have kids.

943
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:03,124
That's the only time your life
is completely your own.

944
00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:05,607
I had about a decade of that.
It was great.

945
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,007
It was just like one long flowing--

946
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,049
A day, a week, a year.

947
00:51:10,240 --> 00:51:13,403
There wasn't much difference.
I used to keep track of time.

948
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:17,565
Through jobs, boyfriends, stuff like that.
Now I can tell you every detail

949
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:21,446
of the past seven years based on what
was happening in the girls' lives.

950
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:22,641
Yeah, right. Totally.

951
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:24,689
You do that too?

952
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:27,685
Yeah. I mean, time's demarcated now.
Really?

953
00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:29,444
What?
No, no, no. No, I just--

954
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:33,281
I'm surprised. I'm surprised you do that.
No, but-- Okay, quick test.

955
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:35,761
Oh, no.
You know, August, 2009.

956
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:39,083
No, August-- Come on. It's a quick one.
Why?

957
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:41,243
What was happening?
August--

958
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:43,402
We were on vacation
with your parents.

959
00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,643
Nina got the chicken pox first,
quickly followed by Ella.

960
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,764
I'm so impressed.
So do I get a gold star?

961
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,923
Maybe.
Mm-hm.

962
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,366
Hey, can I ask you a question?
Sure.

963
00:51:55,560 --> 00:52:00,043
If we were meeting for the first time today
on a train, would you find me attractive?

964
00:52:00,240 --> 00:52:03,050
Of course.
No, but really, right now, as I am?

965
00:52:03,240 --> 00:52:05,481
Would you start talking to me?

966
00:52:05,720 --> 00:52:08,246
Would you ask me
to get off the train with you?

967
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:09,521
[BOTH LAUGH]

968
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,650
Well, I mean, you're asking
a theoretical question.

969
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:16,561
What would my life situation be?
Wouldn't I be cheating on you?

970
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:18,603
Why can't you just say yes?
I did.

971
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,770
I wanted you to say something
romantic and you blew it.

972
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,930
Okay, all right, wait,
if I saw you on a train,

973
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,686
I would lock eyes with you, walk up to you
Uh-huh.

974
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,126
And say, "Hey, baby.

975
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:32,204
You are making me as horny
as a billy goat in a pepper patch."

976
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,886
Aah! Stop it! That's disgusting!

977
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:39,290
Billy goat? No. The truth is,
okay, you failed the test.

978
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,051
The fact is, you would not
pick me up on a train.

979
00:52:42,240 --> 00:52:44,720
Would not notice
a fat-assed middle-aged mom

980
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,924
losing her hair.
Okay. Losing-- Ha-ha-ha.

981
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,127
Yeah, that's me.

982
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,607
You set me up to fail on this one.

983
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,167
Okay, true, true, true.
You did. All right.

984
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:58,769
But in the real world, baldy, okay,
on game day when it mattered,

985
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:03,284
I did talk to you on a train, okay?
I did. It was the best thing I ever did.

986
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,209
Really? Look at the goats.
Hey.

987
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,243
CELINE: Hello.
JESSE: Yeah.

988
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:12,285
But, heh, you know,
that's not even a good question.

989
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:16,724
The real question would be,
if I did ask you to get off a train,

990
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,883
Yeah?
would you get off with me?

991
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:21,367
Of course not.
I have people waiting for me.

992
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:26,282
You know, and, heh, heh,
a 41-year-old horny billy goat.

993
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:30,121
How creepy. I'm creeped out
right now. Help!

994
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,288
I can't believe I'm 41.

995
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,841
Yeah, me neither. You've gotten so old.
Heh.

996
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,441
I never thought I'd sleep
with anyone over 40.

997
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,405
Actually, you're the oldest guy
I've ever slept with.

998
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:43,922
That's something. I'm not the
oldest guy you've ever blown.

999
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:45,451
What?

1000
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,166
That conference in Warsaw.

1001
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:50,721
What conference?
Lech Walesa.

1002
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:52,524
Lech Walesa?

1003
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:54,762
Oh, what are you talking about?
It's okay.

1004
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:57,930
It was before we were together.
It's-- You can admit it.

1005
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:02,409
I can remember the way you talked
about how he opened your heart.

1006
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:06,286
You definitely blew him. Definitely.
Oh, okay. You're really crazy.

1007
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,802
That was Gorbachev, okay,
you geographically-challenged,

1008
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:13,527
football-obsessed, doughnut-loving
American. That was Gorbachev.

1009
00:54:13,720 --> 00:54:15,768
I got my Eastern bloc leaders
mixed up.

1010
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:17,121
And I didn't blow him

1011
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,971
at all. Okay? Take it back.
Okay, okay, okay.

1012
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:21,730
God.

1013
00:54:22,720 --> 00:54:24,848
So was it Véclav Havel?

1014
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,281
All right, you know...
Heh, heh.

1015
00:54:28,720 --> 00:54:31,291
Listen to this. I was gonna wait
to tell you this

1016
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:34,330
till later, but I'm so bad
with secrets.

1017
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,682
You have a tumor
in your brain? Gonna die?

1018
00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,201
No, no, no.
Nothing like that. All right?

1019
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:42,887
Well, actually,
it's kind of like that. Um...

1020
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:44,166
My grandmother died.

1021
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,569
What? When?
Yeah. My dad texted me before we ate.

1022
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,802
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Why didn't you tell me?

1023
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:53,681
Everybody's been expecting it. She
lived a long time, had a great life.

1024
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:55,524
She was 96.

1025
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,365
Hm. Didn't live much longer
after your grandfather died?

1026
00:54:58,560 --> 00:54:59,721
Barely a year.

1027
00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:03,441
I mean, the funny thing is, this
woman was a freaking saint. Okay?

1028
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,604
She was a nurse in the war.
She took care of all of us.

1029
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,849
I mean, she never said an
unkind word about-anybody.

1030
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:11,849
I wish I'd met her.
It's okay.

1031
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:16,011
It's okay. By the end, she just really
wasn't into meeting new people.

1032
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:19,602
I mean, after a lifetime
of being sweet as pie,

1033
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,610
once Grandpa died,
she got kind of ornery.

1034
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:23,841
It happens.

1035
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:25,047
She was in mourning, no?

1036
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:28,966
Well, my dad said
she was just waiting to die.

1037
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:32,130
How long were they married?
Seventy-four years.

1038
00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:35,767
Fuck. How is that even possible?
Ha-ha-ha.

1039
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:37,246
I know.

1040
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:40,284
How old will we be
if we are together 74 years?

1041
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:43,404
Um, when would we start
counting from?

1042
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:47,730
I guess from the first time we had sex.
Okay. Yeah, good.

1043
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:51,003
Okay.

1343
01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:39,885
I think he's old enough now.

1344
01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:43,448
I mean, he knows how bad it is
between his mother and I.

1345
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:47,008
His mom and me.
And I didn't do anything. It's all from her.

1346
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,722
Okay, she hates me. Yes,
I fucked her husband a long time ago.

1347
01:11:50,920 --> 01:11:52,684
Or should I say he fucked me?

1348
01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:54,928
Heh. Yeah, right.
Okay.

1349
01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:58,960
Making a joke that his mom and I
don't love each other is not the issue.

1350
01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:01,964
That's not gonna traumatize him.
That already happened.

1351
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:05,124
And now you're trying
to transfer your guilt and blame me.

1352
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:06,327
No, I'm not.

1353
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:11,082
On the contrary, if he can joke about it,
maybe he'll be able to live with it better.

1354
01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:16,161
Okay, you're right, as always.
Let's just not talk about it, okay?

1355
01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:21,368
Mm-hm. Right. It's nobody's fault if his mom
is a drunk and abusive psychologically.

1356
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:23,443
Don't say that.

1357
01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:25,887
It makes me sick
that he has to be with her.

1358
01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:28,924
But judges assume
that women have the mother instinct.

1359
01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:31,851
She has the mother instinct of Medea.

1360
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:33,445
Medea, huh?

1361
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:35,768
Yeah. After all, it is a Greek myth.

1362
01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:37,883
Actually a play by Euripides, but--

1363
01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:40,771
A woman killing her kids
to punish her ex-husband.

1364
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,651
That's what she's doing.
Hurting him to get to you.

1365
01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:47,521
No, she's making my life hell
through him, that's what she's doing.

1366
01:12:47,720 --> 01:12:52,203
And sometimes you say things
that just go too far.

1367
01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:55,165
Stop blaming me
for everything wrong with your wife.

1368
01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:59,046
Ex-wife, ex-wife. For a long time.
Okay.

1369
01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:02,130
Should have dealt with it.
She wouldn't have hated us.

1370
01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:04,527
Okay, okay, I screwed up.

1371
01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:07,560
I just love this little re-write
you do

1372
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:12,448
that everything that isn't perfect
in our life gets laid at my feet.

1373
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:15,765
And now you're putting this shit
on me about Henry.

1374
01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:18,122
What shit?
What are you talking about?

1375
01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:23,008
Let me tell you what I'm talking about.
The moving to Chicago, giving up my life.

1376
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:24,491
[SIGHS]

1377
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:28,884
You mentioned that Henry needs you.
How do you think that makes me feel?

1378
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:31,003
I'm miserable. All right?

1379
01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:33,248
How can I take that job now?
Okay.

1380
01:13:33,440 --> 01:13:36,364
Tell me. I'll feel too guilty. No, no, no.
Come here.

1381
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:40,042
That's a choice you're making,
to look at it like that. All right?

1382
01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:43,323
It is in the nature of women
to be the nurturer.

1383
01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:45,449
The what?
The nurturer.

1384
01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:48,723
The nurturer?
Okay, I can't even say that fucking word.

1385
01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:53,642
I just naturally feel bad about everything.
And you give that look, like it's my fault.

1386
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:56,684
What look?
The I-forgot-the-science-project look.

1387
01:13:56,880 --> 01:13:59,247
I know you blame me.
I didn't say anything.

1388
01:13:59,440 --> 01:14:03,161
No, you didn't say anything.
You didn't have to. It's always my fault.

1389
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:05,249
Yeah, right.

1390
01:14:05,480 --> 01:14:07,482
CELINE:
I read on the fridge at work--

1391
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,923
You know those magnet words
that people make sentences with?

1392
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:12,081
JESSE:
Mm-hm.

1393
01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:16,564
Someone had put together,
"Women explore for eternity

1394
01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:18,802
in the vast garden of sacrifice."

1395
01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:20,809
LAUGHS]

1396
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:23,804
Wow. That's a sure sign from God.
Yeah.

1397
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:28,164
That line is so damn true, and it's been
for 10,000 years, but that's enough.

1398
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,289
I don't wanna be one of these women.

1399
01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:34,127
Like marriage is important to gays,
or contraception to women rights.

1400
01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:38,763
It's the same with giving up my hopes,
with women that had to give up hopes.

1401
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,885
I'm not gonna do it. This is bigger
than me. This means more than me.

1402
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:49,731
Wow. Bravo.
The Nobel Committee is taking note.

1403
01:14:49,960 --> 01:14:52,884
I'm just-- Hold on a second.
I'm gonna alert Sweden.

1404
01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:56,527
It must be a full-time job carrying
that much feminine oppression.

1405
01:14:56,760 --> 01:14:58,683
It is.
You suffered so much

1406
01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:00,763
growing up in middle-class Paris.

1407
01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,606
The agony in the trenches of
the Sorbonne in the post-feminist era.

1408
01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:06,842
I can't imagine.
You're an asshole.

1409
01:15:07,440 --> 01:15:10,523
You know what, sweetie,
when are we moving to Chicago?

1410
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:13,610
I wanna make sure
we are able to find a nice house

1411
01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:17,202
and I can sew the drapes
and pick matching bed covers.

1412
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,165
This is how you now want
to be spending this evening?

1413
01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:22,647
This is what you wanna do?
You started it.

1414
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:26,561
No, you are the one
who will not shut up about it.

1415
01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:29,923
But if you wanna talk about it,
really talk about it,

1416
01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:34,205
I would prefer to have an
unemotional, rational conversation.

1417
01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:36,010
Do you think we could do that?

1418
01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:39,044
Here we go, unemotional, rational.

1419
01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:42,244
You always play the part
of the one and only rational one.

1420
01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:45,961
And I'm the irrational, hysterical,
hormone-crazy one

1421
01:15:46,160 --> 01:15:47,605
because I have emotions.

1422
01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:50,531
You sit back and speak
from your big perspective,

1423
01:15:50,720 --> 01:15:53,166
which means
everything you say is true.

1424
01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:54,890
I don't always do anything.

1425
01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:58,801
The world is fucked by unemotional,
rational men deciding shit.

1426
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:03,449
Politicians going to war, corporate heads
deciding to wreck the environment.

1427
01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:06,530
Cheney, Rumsfeld, very rational men.

1428
01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:08,563
Cheney and Rumsfeld ,
yeah,okay.

1429
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:11,843
The Final Solution,
very rational thinking behind that.

1430
01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:13,411
Okay. So we're there now?

1431
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:17,047
Us versus the Final Solution?
Okay. Let's do it. All right.

1432
01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:19,083
Let me ask you this, all right?

1433
01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,084
Do you think Henry's life
would be helped

1434
01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:24,760
by a more consistent presence
by you and me? Huh?

1435
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:27,046
Here we go.
No.

1436
01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:31,131
You won't drop it, so let's talk.
Let me just ask you one question.

1437
01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:33,887
Think Hank's life
would be better served

1438
01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,202
by consistent presence
from you and me?

1439
01:16:36,440 --> 01:16:39,250
Yes, it'd be better if he lived with us.
Okay.

1440
01:16:39,440 --> 01:16:42,284
I think his mom
is a fucking alcoholic, hateful cunt

1441
01:16:42,480 --> 01:16:46,007
that used the time we were in Paris
and I was giving birth

1442
01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:49,722
to legally move Henry out of
New York. Fuck her.

1443
01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:52,647
Okay. I agree with you.
Mm-hm.

1444
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:55,724
Okay. Unfortunately,
we cannot go get him out of America,

1445
01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:58,566
but we could, if we wanted to,
go to him.

1446
01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:01,246
Now, I know it would be
a big move.

1447
01:17:01,440 --> 01:17:05,445
But what do you think? ls there any way
that you could be happy in the U.S.?

1448
01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:10,288
Is that just out of the realm of possibility?
That you could find a comparable job?

1449
01:17:10,440 --> 01:17:11,771
Comparable job?
Yeah.

1450
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:13,331
Are you kidding?
No.

1451
01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:16,444
Why am I the one that have
to make the compromises?

1452
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:19,007
Don't be so dramatic. Okay?
It should be--

1453
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:21,931
Moving to Chicago
is pretty fucking dramatic for me.

1454
01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:26,330
I'm not saying we should move.
I just wanna talk about it.

1455
01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:29,251
Can you be my friend
for two seconds so we can talk?

1456
01:17:29,440 --> 01:17:30,680
Two seconds.
All right.

1457
01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:33,844
Remember that time you were late
to pick the girls up

1458
01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:38,841
and you were so stressed out because
they were wondering what happened?

1459
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:41,884
Okay, that is the way
that I feel all the time.

1460
01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:46,165
Like I fucked up. I mean, I left him
behind and I just wanna go get him.

1461
01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:49,005
You always get like this
when you drop him off.

1462
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:51,168
You're sad, so you start a fight.

1463
01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:53,370
He's fine.

1464
01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:56,490
He's a great kid, okay?

1465
01:17:56,680 --> 01:17:59,251
Truth is, he doesn't need you
the way he used to.

1466
01:17:59,440 --> 01:18:03,843
You missed the opportunity to be with him
every day of his childhood. You did.

1467
01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:07,681
And you can cry about it,
but he's growing up.

1468
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:12,085
You're a great father in other ways.
You got divorced

1469
01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:16,165
like millions of other people.
Was it ideal? No. But--

1470
01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:20,401
Listen, if in one month
you still want me to quit my job

1471
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:24,082
and give up everything I've
been working towards, just ask,

1472
01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:27,847
but right now
I feel the same way I always have.

1473
01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:32,250
I would move to the U.S. if that ex-wife
of yours would give us joint custody.

1474
01:18:32,440 --> 01:18:35,125
But every other weekend
amounts to shit.

1475
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:36,964
That's less than
3O days a semester.

1476
01:18:37,120 --> 01:18:41,842
I don't think it's worth it for us to change
our entire lives over that kind of time.

1477
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:44,122
I know. You're right. Mm-hm.
Right? Right?

1478
01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:46,761
See, I'm being the rational one.

1479
01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:48,246
[CHUCKLES]

1480
01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:50,880
Oh, it's just such a shitty position,
you know?

1481
01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:54,806
Hank didn't do anything, but he's the
one getting kicked in the teeth.

1482
01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:57,441
We all get dragged
through our parents' lives.

1483
01:18:57,640 --> 01:19:00,644
Your marriage would have ended
over something else.

1484
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:03,451
Absolutely.
Or worse, he would've been raised

1485
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:05,409
by two miserable parents.
Right.

1486
01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:10,207

I thought about ending it for myself.

1631
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:24,482
I was so confused and you were
always away on a stupid book tour

1632
01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:28,326
or because of Henry's custody shit,
and I didn't wanna be a burden.

1633
01:27:28,480 --> 01:27:31,086
I know why Sylvia Plath
put her head in a toaster.

1634
01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:33,726
It was an oven.
Don't play with words.

1635
01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:36,810
You know what I mean.
Toaster, oven, same thing.

1636
01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:40,561
You know how many times I was alone
crying with no clue what to do?

1637
01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:44,008
Know the guilt a mother feels
when she doesn't know what to do?

1638
01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:47,369
Do you think you have
sole ownership of that feeling?

1639
01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:49,966
I don't think you understand.
Okay?

1640
01:27:50,200 --> 01:27:53,204
You know what my secret fear is?
With every man?

1641
01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:57,405
Is that they all wanna turn me
into a submissive housewife.

1642
01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:00,769
Okay. No one could ever do that.
All right?

1643
01:28:01,320 --> 01:28:05,609
I promise. It would be easier
to fit your head into a toaster

1644
01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:08,525
than to turn you
into anything submissive.

1645
01:28:08,760 --> 01:28:11,730
I don't think I've recovered
since giving birth.

1646
01:28:11,920 --> 01:28:14,651
When they were born,
I had no idea what to do.

1647
01:28:14,840 --> 01:28:18,731
People expect women
to have this instinct that kicks in

1648
01:28:18,920 --> 01:28:20,649
like a female baboon.

1649
01:28:20,840 --> 01:28:23,844
But I had no idea how to do anything.

1650
01:28:24,120 --> 01:28:27,761
I loved them so much
and I was doing everything wrong.

1651
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:32,568
And you were away so often, calling
me and asking me how my day went,

1652
01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:36,481
and I couldn't even say it to you
because I felt so ashamed

1653
01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:37,806
to be so clueless.

1654
01:28:38,040 --> 01:28:40,008
I think you did great.
No, I didn't.

1655
01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:43,647
No, you did. Well, you did
a good job faking it, then.

1656
01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:47,529
I just-- I remember the only way
I could get them to sleep

1657
01:28:47,720 --> 01:28:51,281
was to drag that stupid
double stroller down the stairs

1658
01:28:51,480 --> 01:28:54,131
and walk them for hours
in the middle of the night,

1659
01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:57,881
all the way to Pigalle and back.
I almost got mugged once.

1660
01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:02,483
The only reason why the guy didn't
attack me is that I looked so pathetic.

1661
01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:06,287
The only upside of being over 35 is
that you don't get raped as much.

1662
01:29:06,480 --> 01:29:09,802
Ha-ha-ha.
I read it. It's true.

1663
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:12,401
Oh, Jesus.

1664
01:29:13,760 --> 01:29:18,527
Once, I remember, I was watching the
twins on a trampoline, you know,

1665
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:20,643
and they looked so beautiful,

1666
01:29:20,840 --> 01:29:23,207
and I was happy
because they were happy.

1667
01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:26,563
You know,
one of them had this Hula-Hoop

1668
01:29:26,760 --> 01:29:29,570
that she was using as a jump rope,
you know,

1669
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:34,010
but then the other one wanted it so they
started fighting over it, you know?

1670
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:36,248
And all of a sudden,
I just saw it all.

1671
01:29:36,440 --> 01:29:40,729
You know, all this petty jealously
and selfishness, you know?

1672
01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:47,485
And I remember thinking, "Okay, this,
heh, is the natural human state."

1673
01:29:47,680 --> 01:29:53,210
You know, just always a little dissatisfied,
perpetually discontented, you know?

1674
01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:56,244
I mean, heh, look at us.

1675
01:29:56,440 --> 01:30:00,570
Here we are, we are in, you know,
the Garden of Eden

1676
01:30:00,760 --> 01:30:03,286
and we can't stop fighting.

1677
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:06,366
I don't think there's
one natural human state.

1678
01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:08,085
The human state is multiple.

1679
01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:11,568
If that's what you see when
you're watching the girls play,

1680
01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:13,962
that means you're depressed.

1681
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:17,207
Okay. Maybe I am.

1682
01:30:17,400 --> 01:30:21,530
No, but when I see them fight, I see
beautiful energy of going forward,

1683
01:30:21,680 --> 01:30:25,002
not letting anyone step on them
or take away what they want.

1684
