- 496
- 00:30:18,608 --> 00:30:20,150
- ...how they did without us.

- How's the children's department?

- I have in my possession the secret
- printout of the sales figures...

- ...of a bookstore so inconsequential,
- yet full of its own virtue...

- it will put me out of business.

- Tell me something, really.
- How do you sleep at night?

- I use a wonderful over-the-counter drug:

- Ultra-dorm.

- for $600,000 and I said to her:

- 01:08:46,497 --> 01:08:49,082
- "If you think I'm even
- going to talk to you...
- 1127

- ...about paying that kind

- She was insulting and provocative
- and the only thing pleasant about her...
- 1131

- ...was the way her hair
- fell across her forehead.

- What if he showed up,
- took one look at me and left?
- 1144

- Not possible.
- 1145

- Maybe there was a subway accident.
- 1146

- Absolutely.
- 1147
- 01:09:48,475 --> 01:09:50,768

- 01:10:02,364 --> 01:10:03,615
- He was unable to make it.
- 1155
- 01:10:04,366 --> 01:10:05,575
- He stood you up?
- 1156
- 01:10:08,704 --> 01:10:13,249
- Maybe he had a car accident.
- Those cab drivers are maniacs.
- 1157

- They hit something and you slam
- into that plastic partition.

- Or his elbows could be in splints,
- so he couldn't dial.

- Is there a picture?

- So that explains it.
- 1171
- 01:10:54,166 --> 01:10:55,500
- He was in jail.
- 1172
- 01:10:55,793 --> 01:10:57,669
- And there was a phone.
- 1173
- 01:10:57,878 --> 01:11:00,046
- He only got one call,
- so he called his lawyer.

- You are so lucky.
- 1175
- 01:11:01,882 --> 01:11:03,508
- You could be dead.

- Last night I went to meet you,

- I wish I knew why. I felt so foolish.

- A man who has made
- my professional life a misery.

- 1194
- 01:12:09,992 --> 01:12:11,659
- I was able, for the first time...
- 1195
- 01:12:11,910 --> 01:12:14,078

- ...at the exact moment

- And of course, afterwards I felt terrible...

- ...just as you said I would.

- I was cruel, and I'm never cruel.

- Though I hardly believe

- The odd thing about this
- form of communication...
- 1209

- ...is that you're more likely to talk

- For what happened.
- 1230
- 01:16:04,810 --> 01:16:08,396
- I feel terrible that you
- found yourself in a situation...
- 1231
- 01:16:08,564 --> 01:16:11,440
- ...that caused you additional pain.
- 1232
- 01:16:13,694 --> 01:16:15,653
- But I'm absolutely sure...
- 1233
- 01:16:15,988 --> 01:16:19,532
- ...that whatever you said last night
- was provoked.
- 1234
- 01:16:19,825 --> 01:16:21,450
- Even deserved.
- 1235
- 01:16:24,955 --> 01:16:29,208
- Everyone says things they regret
- when they're worried or stressed.
- 1236
- 01:16:31,253 --> 01:16:34,630
- You were expecting to see
- someone you trusted...
- 1237
- 01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:37,258
- ...and met the enemy instead.
- 1238
- 01:16:40,887 --> 01:16:42,763
- The fault is mine.
- 1239
- 01:16:45,267 --> 01:16:47,935

- ...nothing.
- 1262
- 01:17:53,627 --> 01:17:55,336
- Have a sandwich.
- 1263
- 01:17:56,463 --> 01:17:59,882
- Not nothing. I have a little money saved.
- 1264
- 01:18:00,050 --> 01:18:03,928
- If you need more, ask me. I'm very rich.
- 1265

- I bought Intel at six.
- 1266

- 1603
- 01:40:18,762 --> 01:40:21,264
- ...and Mr. Darcy is too proud?
- 1604
- 01:40:21,473 --> 01:40:22,849
- I can't remember.
- 1605
- 01:40:29,440 --> 01:40:31,024
- It wasn't personal.
- 1606
- 01:40:31,316 --> 01:40:34,652
- What is that supposed to mean?
- I'm so sick of that.
- 1607
- 01:40:34,903 --> 01:40:38,281
- All that means is that
- it wasn't personal to you.
- 1608
- 01:40:38,490 --> 01:40:40,283
- But it was personal to me.
- 1609
- 01:40:40,492 --> 01:40:42,785
- It's personal to a lot of people.
- 1610
- 01:40:42,995 --> 01:40:46,039
- What is so wrong
- with being personal anyway?
- 1611
- 01:40:47,207 --> 01:40:48,541
- Nothing.
- 1612
- 01:40:48,792 --> 01:40:52,920
- Whatever else anything is,
- it ought to begin by being personal.
- 1613
- 01:40:56,300 --> 01:40:58,676
- My head is starting to get fuzzy.
- 1614
- 01:41:03,974 --> 01:41:05,933
- Why did you stop by again? I forget.
- 1615
- 01:41:07,478 --> 01:41:08,728
- I wanted to be your friend.
- 1616
- 01:41:09,938 --> 01:41:11,314
- Oh.
- 1617
- 01:41:12,149 --> 01:41:14,275
- I knew it wasn't possible.
- 1618
- 01:41:15,360 --> 01:41:18,446
- Sometimes a guy
- just wants the impossible.
- 1619
- 01:41:28,373 --> 01:41:30,291
- Can I ask you a question?
- 1620
- 01:41:30,501 --> 01:41:31,667
- What?
- 1621
- 01:41:33,504 --> 01:41:36,172
- What happened with that guy
- at the café?
- 1622
- 01:41:37,049 --> 01:41:38,174
- Nothing.
- 1623
- 01:41:38,383 --> 01:41:40,259
- But you're crazy about him?
- 1624
- 01:41:41,637 --> 01:41:42,678
- Yes, I am.
- 1625
- 01:41:42,846 --> 01:41:46,265
- Why don't you run off with him?
- What are you waiting for?
- 1626
- 01:41:48,685 --> 01:41:50,645
- I don't actually know him.
- 1627
- 01:41:51,188 --> 01:41:52,271
- Really?
- 1628
- 01:41:54,858 --> 01:41:57,527
- I only know him through....
- 1629
- 01:41:58,362 --> 01:41:59,821
- You won't believe this.
- 1630
- 01:41:59,988 --> 01:42:01,656
- JOE:
- Let me guess.
- 1631
- 01:42:02,199 --> 01:42:03,533
- Through the Internet?
- 1632
- 01:42:05,035 --> 01:42:06,577
- Yes.
- 1633
- 01:42:08,497 --> 01:42:09,580
- JOE:
- Hmm.
- 1634
- 01:42:09,790 --> 01:42:12,250
- "You've got mail."
- 1635
- 01:42:12,417 --> 01:42:13,876
- Yes.
- 1636
- 01:42:16,213 --> 01:42:17,588
- Those are very powerful words.
- 1637
- 01:42:18,215 --> 01:42:19,715
- Yes.
- 1638
- 01:42:22,803 --> 01:42:24,554
- I'm happy for him.
- 1639
- 01:42:25,931 --> 01:42:27,682
- Although....
- 1640
- 01:42:29,017 --> 01:42:30,935
- Could I just make a suggestion?
- 1641
- 01:42:31,562 --> 01:42:32,895
- What?
- 1642
- 01:42:33,355 --> 01:42:34,814
- I think...
- 1643
- 01:42:35,357 --> 01:42:37,066
- ...you should meet him.
- 1644
- 01:42:37,568 --> 01:42:40,027
- No, wait, I take that back.
- 1645
- 01:42:40,946 --> 01:42:43,823
- Why would you meet somebody
- you're crazy about?
- 1646
- 01:42:44,074 --> 01:42:47,743
- I hardly think I need to take advice
- from a person who--
- 1647
- 01:42:50,122 --> 01:42:52,331
- I can see I bring out the worst in you.
- 1648
- 01:42:52,583 --> 01:42:55,209
- Let me help you to not say something...
- 1649
- 01:42:55,419 --> 01:42:59,922
- ...you'll torture yourself about
- for years to come.
- 1650
- 01:43:13,103 --> 01:43:15,271
- I hope you feel better soon.
- 1651
- 01:43:16,607 --> 01:43:18,941
- It'd be a shame to miss New York
- in the spring.
- 1652
- 01:43:23,155 --> 01:43:24,739
- Thank you for the daisies.
- 1653
- 01:43:35,792 --> 01:43:38,461
- Well, you take care.
- 1654
- 01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:40,922
- I will.
- 1655
- 01:43:42,132 --> 01:43:43,257
- Goodbye.
- 1656
- 01:43:45,135 --> 01:43:46,469
- Goodbye.
- 1657
- 01:44:03,487 --> 01:44:05,696
- KATHLEEN:
- I've been thinking about this...
- 1658
- 01:44:05,948 --> 01:44:08,032
- ...and I think we should meet.
- 1659
- 01:44:14,706 --> 01:44:16,332
- JOE:
- We should meet.
- 1660
- 01:44:17,000 --> 01:44:18,793
- And we will meet.
- 1661
- 01:44:19,294 --> 01:44:23,297
- But I'm in the middle
- of a project that needs...
- 1662
- 01:44:28,512 --> 01:44:30,179
- ...tweaking.
- 1663
- 01:44:49,950 --> 01:44:51,367
- Some tweaking?
- 1664
- 01:44:52,035 --> 01:44:53,911
- A project that needed...
- 1665
- 01:44:54,079 --> 01:44:55,204
- ..."tweaking."
- 1666
- 01:44:55,372 --> 01:44:59,542
- -Yeah, that's what he said.
- -T-W-E-A-K-I-N-G? Tweaking.
- 1667
- 01:45:00,210 --> 01:45:03,212
- It sounds to me like he's married.
- 1668
- 01:45:03,380 --> 01:45:04,547
- Three kids.
- 1669
- 01:45:04,715 --> 01:45:07,717
- That's a terrible thing to say.
- He couldn't be married.
- 1670
- 01:45:08,010 --> 01:45:09,218
- How do you know?
- 1671
- 01:45:09,386 --> 01:45:11,595
- Have you said, "Are you married?"
- 1672
- 01:45:11,888 --> 01:45:14,473
- No, I'm not going to-- No.
- 1673
- 01:45:15,892 --> 01:45:19,270
- KATHLEEN: I know this is a little late
- to be asking but...
- 1674
- 01:45:20,397 --> 01:45:21,897
- ...are you married?
- 1675
- 01:45:25,402 --> 01:45:26,861
- JOE:
- Am I married?
- 1676
- 01:45:27,070 --> 01:45:29,030
- What kind of question is that?
- 1677
- 01:45:29,573 --> 01:45:32,491
- How can you ask me that?
- Don't you know me at all?
- 1678
- 01:45:32,743 --> 01:45:34,618
- Oh, wait, I get it.
- 1679
- 01:45:35,245 --> 01:45:38,581
- Your friends are saying the reason
- we haven't met is I'm married.
- 1680
- 01:45:38,749 --> 01:45:40,249
- Am I right?
- 1681
- 01:45:41,585 --> 01:45:43,753
- -So he didn't answer the question.
- -Yes, he did.
- 1682
- 01:45:44,046 --> 01:45:46,922
- -He did not.
- -He did. He did. He nailed me.
- 1683
- 01:45:47,215 --> 01:45:51,093
- He knew what I was after which is,
- by the way, exactly like him.
- 1684
- 01:45:51,386 --> 01:45:54,597
- He did not answer the question, did he?
- 1685
- 01:45:55,891 --> 01:45:57,266
- No.
- 1686
- 01:45:58,435 --> 01:46:00,644
- Maybe he's fat.
- 1687
- 01:46:01,313 --> 01:46:03,272
- He's fat. He's a fatty.
- 1688
- 01:46:04,024 --> 01:46:05,066
- I don't care.
- 1689
- 01:46:05,233 --> 01:46:07,151
- You don't care that he's so fat...
- 1690
- 01:46:07,402 --> 01:46:11,113
- ...he has to be removed from his house
- by a crane. You don't care.
- 1691
- 01:46:11,281 --> 01:46:12,740
- KATHLEEN:
- That is very unlikely.
- 1692
- 01:46:12,949 --> 01:46:15,284
- That is completely ridiculous.
- 1693
- 01:46:15,952 --> 01:46:17,787
- What's his handle?
- 1694
- 01:46:17,954 --> 01:46:19,288
- Uh....
- 1695
- 01:46:21,083 --> 01:46:22,583
- I'm not going to write him.
- 1696
- 01:46:22,793 --> 01:46:24,835
- You think I'm going to e-mail him?
- 1697
- 01:46:27,130 --> 01:46:28,756
- All right, N-Y-1 -5-2.
- 1698
- 01:46:29,049 --> 01:46:31,634
- N-Y-1-5-2? 152.
- 1699
- 01:46:31,927 --> 01:46:34,053
- He's 152 years old.
- 1700
- 01:46:34,805 --> 01:46:37,556
- He's had 152 moles removed...
- 1701
- 01:46:37,808 --> 01:46:40,684
- ...so now he's got
- 152 pockmarks on his....
- 1702
- 01:46:41,353 --> 01:46:42,978
- On his face.
- 1703
- 01:46:43,313 --> 01:46:46,774
- The number of people who think
- he looks like Clark Gable.
- 1704
- 01:46:47,067 --> 01:46:50,861
- 152 people who think
- he looks like a Clark Bar.

- [KATHLEEN LAUGHS]
- 1706
- 01:46:54,825 --> 01:46:58,411
- KATHLEEN: Why'd I even tell you?
- -152 stitches from his nose job.
- 1707
- 01:46:58,662 --> 01:47:01,705
- The number of his souvenir
- shot glasses...
- 1708
- 01:47:01,957 --> 01:47:05,459
- ...that he's collected in his travels.
- 1709
- 01:47:06,420 --> 01:47:07,962
- His address.
- 1710
- 01:47:08,213 --> 01:47:12,091
- No, he would never do
- anything that prosaic.
- 1711
- 01:47:16,138 --> 01:47:19,181
- The only thing I
- really care about is that...
- 1712
- 01:47:19,391 --> 01:47:22,560
- ...aside from the married thing
- and the jail thing...
- 1713
- 01:47:22,769 --> 01:47:25,271
- ...is the boat thing.
- 1714
- 01:47:26,106 --> 01:47:27,148
- What boat thing?
- 1715
- 01:47:27,315 --> 01:47:29,608
- I could never be
- with someone who had a boat.
- 1716
- 01:47:31,319 --> 01:47:32,778
- I have a boat.
- 1717
- 01:47:33,572 --> 01:47:35,156
- Oh.
- 1718
- 01:47:35,323 --> 01:47:37,908
- Which clinches it.
- We'll never be together.
- 1719
- 01:47:38,243 --> 01:47:39,827
- -How many?
- -Three.
- 1720
- 01:47:40,078 --> 01:47:41,454
- -Allow me.
- -Thank you.
- 1721
- 01:47:41,663 --> 01:47:45,291
- I could never be with someone
- who likes Joni Mitchell.
- 1722
- 01:47:45,542 --> 01:47:48,586
- It's cloud's illusions I recall
- I really don't know clouds at all
- 1723
- 01:47:48,795 --> 01:47:52,214
- What does that mean? Is she a pilot?
- 1724
- 01:47:52,424 --> 01:47:55,259
- It must be a metaphor,
- but I don't know what it is.
- 1725
- 01:47:57,012 --> 01:47:58,387
- JOE:
- How's your book coming?
- 1726
- 01:47:58,638 --> 01:48:01,474
- KATHLEEN: There's this
- children's book editor I know.
- 1727
- 01:48:01,725 --> 01:48:04,435
- She's excited to read it
- when I'm finished.
- 1728
- 01:48:04,644 --> 01:48:06,937
- Who would ever have thought
- that I would write?
- 1729
- 01:48:07,189 --> 01:48:09,523
- -If I hadn't had all this time....
- -Uh-huh.
- 1730
- 01:48:10,442 --> 01:48:11,859
- -You know what?
- -What?
- 1731
- 01:48:12,402 --> 01:48:16,530
- The truth is he was the one who
- started me thinking about writing.
- 1732
- 01:48:17,657 --> 01:48:20,993
- Mr. 152 Felony Indictments.
- 1733
- 01:48:22,037 --> 01:48:25,581
- Mr. 152 Insights Into My Soul.
- 1734
- 01:48:25,749 --> 01:48:28,000
- Oh. Whoa. Yeah. Oh.
- 1735
- 01:48:28,168 --> 01:48:30,294
- No competing with that.
- 1736
- 01:48:32,881 --> 01:48:35,090
- I keep on bumping into you.
- 1737
- 01:48:36,843 --> 01:48:38,135
- Hope your mango's ripe.
- 1738
- 01:48:39,137 --> 01:48:40,638
- I think it is.
- 1739
- 01:48:41,223 --> 01:48:43,349
- You want to bump into me...
- 1740
- 01:48:43,725 --> 01:48:45,976
- ...on Saturday around lunchtime?
- 1741
- 01:48:46,144 --> 01:48:47,728
- -Yeah.
- -Over there?
- 1742
- 01:48:47,896 --> 01:48:49,855
- -Uh-huh.
- -Good.
- 1743
- 01:48:54,444 --> 01:48:56,820
- JOE:
- How about meeting...
- 1744
- 01:48:57,072 --> 01:48:58,989
- ...Saturday?
- 1745
- 01:48:59,908 --> 01:49:01,700
- Four o'clock.
- 1746
- 01:49:02,077 --> 01:49:04,328
- There's a place in Riverside Park
- at 91st Street...
- 1747
- 01:49:04,496 --> 01:49:07,248
- ...where the path curves
- and there's a garden.
- 1748
- 01:49:07,499 --> 01:49:09,875
- Brinkley and I will be waiting.
- 1749
- 01:49:10,544 --> 01:49:11,835
- Okay, let's do it.
- 1750
- 01:49:12,087 --> 01:49:13,712
- Ready? And....
- 1751
- 01:49:13,964 --> 01:49:15,214
- Doot.
- 1752
- 01:49:15,382 --> 01:49:16,757
- There it goes.
- 1753
- 01:49:17,759 --> 01:49:19,635
- -Today?
- -Today.
- 1754
- 01:49:19,803 --> 01:49:20,803
- Wow.
- 1755
- 01:49:20,971 --> 01:49:23,347
- I know. In Riverside Park.
- 1756
- 01:49:24,766 --> 01:49:26,767
- That would mean he's a Westsider.
- 1757
- 01:49:26,977 --> 01:49:29,687
- Maybe I've seen him
- and don't even know it.
- 1758
- 01:49:29,896 --> 01:49:32,147
- JOE: You could have seen him every day
- and not know it.
- 1759
- 01:49:32,357 --> 01:49:33,691
- KATHLEEN:
- It's very possible.
- 1760
- 01:49:33,858 --> 01:49:35,818
- -He could be anyone.
- -He could be that guy.
- 1761
- 01:49:35,986 --> 01:49:37,987
