1
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:09,800


2
00:00:43,275 --> 00:00:45,539
Hey, buddy.

3
00:00:45,578 --> 00:00:47,569
You don't waste time, do you?

4
00:00:47,646 --> 00:00:49,273
I try not to.

5
00:00:49,348 --> 00:00:50,645
Well, you need help?

6
00:00:50,683 --> 00:00:51,741
Sure.

7
00:00:55,487 --> 00:00:57,546
Would you like to tell us

8
00:00:57,590 --> 00:00:59,581
what the hell that was all about?

9
00:00:59,658 --> 00:01:00,886
I don't like good-byes.

10
00:01:00,926 --> 00:01:03,724
Kind of the point of
a good-bye party, John.

11
00:01:03,796 --> 00:01:06,287
Went to a certain amount
of trouble, you know?

12
00:01:06,332 --> 00:01:08,800
Could've at least stayed
a few minutes, huh?

13
00:01:08,834 --> 00:01:12,736
Eaten some of the food
we so feverishly prepared?

14
00:01:12,805 --> 00:01:14,295
I apologize, Harry.

15
00:01:14,406 --> 00:01:15,896
But why are you moving so quickly?

16
00:01:16,008 --> 00:01:18,067
You only resigned a couple of days ago.

17
00:01:18,110 --> 00:01:20,169
You got the history chair at Stanford.

18
00:01:20,212 --> 00:01:21,236
I wish.

19
00:01:21,313 --> 00:01:23,440
Well, taquitos, chicken wings,

20
00:01:23,515 --> 00:01:25,346
Roastie-Toasties and beer.

21
00:01:25,417 --> 00:01:27,146
If we'd had more time,

22
00:01:27,219 --> 00:01:29,244
we'd have done something
a little more grandiose.

23
00:01:29,321 --> 00:01:31,016
Candlelight dinner at McDonald's.

24
00:01:31,056 --> 00:01:32,546
Strippers.

25
00:01:32,625 --> 00:01:34,422
Taquitos are fine.

26
00:01:34,460 --> 00:01:36,325
A'right.

27
00:01:36,428 --> 00:01:38,123
Art's gonna be along, too.

28
00:01:38,230 --> 00:01:39,959
He's, uh, talking to a student. Pfft.

29
00:01:40,032 --> 00:01:41,829
Is George taking over for you?

30
00:01:41,934 --> 00:01:44,562
- George or Trimbell.
- Has the dean made up his mind?

31
00:01:44,637 --> 00:01:45,661
He hasn't called.

32
00:01:45,738 --> 00:01:46,670
My god!

33
00:01:46,739 --> 00:01:48,138
Wh-What is this?

34
00:01:48,173 --> 00:01:49,435
It looks like a Van Gogh,

35
00:01:49,475 --> 00:01:50,908
But I've never seen it before.

36
00:01:50,943 --> 00:01:52,342
Is that an original, John?

37
00:01:52,378 --> 00:01:54,676
No, it's just a gift someone gave me.

38
00:01:54,747 --> 00:01:56,681
Still, it's a superb copy.

39
00:01:56,749 --> 00:01:58,649
Contemporaneous, I think,

40
00:01:58,684 --> 00:02:00,584
May I take a closer look?

41
00:02:00,653 --> 00:02:01,620
Please, yeah.

42
00:02:03,889 --> 00:02:06,449
Yeah, it's the same
stretcher as Van Gogh used.

43
00:02:06,492 --> 00:02:09,052
Yeah, there's writing
on the back in French.

44
00:02:09,094 --> 00:02:11,494
Oh, "to my friend Jacques Borne."

45
00:02:11,530 --> 00:02:12,690
Wonder who that was?

46
00:02:12,798 --> 00:02:14,197
Someone he knew, I guess.

47
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:15,892
Brilliant deduction, Sherlock.

48
00:02:15,968 --> 00:02:18,869
Surely you'll have this
looked at, appraised?

49
00:02:18,904 --> 00:02:20,838
Well, maybe sometime,

50
00:02:20,906 --> 00:02:24,137
but I wouldn't really want money for it.

51
00:02:25,644 --> 00:02:27,805
That does it.

52
00:02:27,913 --> 00:02:29,710
Put that stuff in the kitchen.

53
00:02:29,748 --> 00:02:33,240
No, I'm gonna put it
in the bathroom, John.

54
00:02:33,319 --> 00:02:35,514
Gas is off, electricity's on.

55
00:02:37,222 --> 00:02:38,712
Get comfortable while you can.

56
00:02:38,824 --> 00:02:41,292
The furniture's going this afternoon.

57
00:02:41,327 --> 00:02:43,795
It's been years since I sat on a floor.

58
00:02:43,829 --> 00:02:45,729
Heh. I can't remember her name.

59
00:02:45,764 --> 00:02:47,356
Eh, it's good for the back.

60
00:02:47,433 --> 00:02:49,264
Can we do yoga exercises?

61
00:02:49,335 --> 00:02:51,132
Tantric yoga, we can.

62
00:02:52,538 --> 00:02:55,098
So you're leaving
good old "we teach you."

63
00:02:55,140 --> 00:02:58,166
Rather suddenly, you must admit.

64
00:02:58,243 --> 00:02:59,835
Truth time, John.

65
00:02:59,878 --> 00:03:01,436
Is there a problem?

66
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:02,777
No.

67
00:03:02,881 --> 00:03:05,008
Oh, come on, you know we wanna help.

68
00:03:05,084 --> 00:03:07,211
That's appreciated, but really...

69
00:03:07,286 --> 00:03:09,254
There's no problem.

70
00:03:09,288 --> 00:03:10,846
Well, now I am curious.

71
00:03:10,889 --> 00:03:12,151
Where are you going?

72
00:03:12,191 --> 00:03:13,385
Givin' up tenure...

73
00:03:13,492 --> 00:03:15,392
A decade of professorship,

74
00:03:15,494 --> 00:03:17,826
in line to chain' the department,

75
00:03:17,896 --> 00:03:20,729
and you don't know where you're going?

76
00:03:20,799 --> 00:03:22,198
Call it cabin fever.

77
00:03:22,234 --> 00:03:24,725
After a while, I get itchy feet.

78
00:03:24,803 --> 00:03:25,997
I've done this before.

79
00:03:26,105 --> 00:03:29,131
No, no, no, you're too young
to have done this before.

80
00:03:29,208 --> 00:03:31,438
And he hasn't aged a day in ten years.

81
00:03:31,510 --> 00:03:32,943
Every woman on the faculty

82
00:03:33,012 --> 00:03:35,537
would give anything to have that secret.

83
00:03:35,614 --> 00:03:37,172
Is that what they're after, Edith?

84
00:03:37,216 --> 00:03:38,843
Oh, stop, Harry.

85
00:03:41,653 --> 00:03:43,245
Wow, can you pull this?

86
00:03:45,024 --> 00:03:46,252
What the hell?

87
00:03:46,325 --> 00:03:47,587
What do you hunt?

88
00:03:47,626 --> 00:03:48,820
Deer, mostly.

89
00:03:48,861 --> 00:03:50,021
Around big bear.

90
00:03:50,062 --> 00:03:51,427
With a bow and arrow?

91
00:03:51,463 --> 00:03:53,158
Most people can't bag a deer

92
00:03:53,232 --> 00:03:55,223
with a rifle and a telescopic sight.

93
00:03:55,267 --> 00:03:56,825
Though, good eatin'.

94
00:03:56,869 --> 00:03:58,359
The best wild game.

95
00:03:58,437 --> 00:03:59,995
Lives naturally, eats naturally.

96
00:04:00,039 --> 00:04:01,506
Well, it's beautiful.

97
00:04:04,676 --> 00:04:06,371
Art.

98
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,672
Ah.

99
00:04:09,715 --> 00:04:12,980
So, can I get an "a" for awesome?

100
00:04:13,018 --> 00:04:14,007
Oh, my gosh.

101
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:16,787
That was fun.

102
00:04:16,822 --> 00:04:18,221
Hey, John.

103
00:04:18,290 --> 00:04:20,724
You know Linda.
You had her last semester.

104
00:04:20,793 --> 00:04:22,090
Hi. Hey.

105
00:04:22,127 --> 00:04:24,047
She's one of my victims now.
I'm taking her home.

106
00:04:24,096 --> 00:04:25,927
She wanted to come by
and say hello good-bye.

107
00:04:25,998 --> 00:04:27,397
Is Art as tough as I hear?

108
00:04:27,433 --> 00:04:28,798
Oh, archaeology's tough.

109
00:04:28,834 --> 00:04:30,825
Dr. Jenkins is a fine teacher.

110
00:04:30,903 --> 00:04:32,837
Oh, that's very politic.

111
00:04:32,905 --> 00:04:34,395
It's very true. Uh-huh.

112
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,908
Something for you to
read on the road, pal.

113
00:04:36,942 --> 00:04:39,843
"Shadows of the cave:
parallels to early man."

114
00:04:39,912 --> 00:04:41,277
M. Jenkins.

115
00:04:41,313 --> 00:04:42,473
Publish or perish.

116
00:04:42,514 --> 00:04:43,606
I'd rather read

117
00:04:43,649 --> 00:04:44,741
than write another one.

118
00:04:44,817 --> 00:04:46,648
Thank you.

119
00:04:46,718 --> 00:04:47,912
Hi.

120
00:04:48,020 --> 00:04:50,215
Oh, everybody, this is Linda.

121
00:04:50,255 --> 00:04:52,485
Linda, this is everybody.

122
00:04:52,524 --> 00:04:54,048
Linda. Hi.

123
00:04:54,126 --> 00:04:56,321
So.

124
00:04:56,361 --> 00:04:58,852
Where you going, John,
like we give a damn?

125
00:04:58,931 --> 00:05:00,057
We've already covered that.

126
00:05:00,132 --> 00:05:02,464
John's got itchy feet.

127
00:05:02,501 --> 00:05:04,799
There are over-the-counter
remedies for that, John.

128
00:05:07,773 --> 00:05:09,070
So there is a problem.

129
00:05:09,108 --> 00:05:10,871
No.

130
00:05:10,909 --> 00:05:13,207
I just like to move on now and then.

131
00:05:13,278 --> 00:05:14,575
It's a personal thing.

132
00:05:16,081 --> 00:05:18,072
Well, not to pry.

133
00:05:25,624 --> 00:05:28,491
I'm sorry I don't
have more to offer you.

134
00:05:28,527 --> 00:05:31,052
Got conversation, some
seats for your behinds,

135
00:05:31,096 --> 00:05:32,120
And, uh...

136
00:05:35,901 --> 00:05:38,392
Is he ducking out on us again?

137
00:05:39,838 --> 00:05:41,499
...I do have this.

138
00:05:41,540 --> 00:05:46,136
Oh ho ho! Johnny Walker green!

139
00:05:46,211 --> 00:05:48,975
Didn't even
know they made it in green.

140
00:05:49,014 --> 00:05:50,413
What do they pay you?

141
00:05:50,516 --> 00:05:52,416
Nothing is too good for my friends.

142
00:05:52,451 --> 00:05:55,420
But I'm sorry,
we are down to plastic cups now.

143
00:05:55,454 --> 00:05:57,422
That's a sacrilege I'll tolerate.

144
00:05:57,456 --> 00:05:59,083
I will do the honors.

145
00:05:59,124 --> 00:06:00,751
Oh, come to papa.

146
00:06:02,294 --> 00:06:03,784
Ooh! Here, cups, cups.

147
00:06:03,862 --> 00:06:04,851
There we go.

148
00:06:04,897 --> 00:06:05,989
Step on in here.

149
00:06:06,064 --> 00:06:07,053
There ya go...

150
00:06:07,099 --> 00:06:09,567
One for the birthday boy...
Excuse me. Art?

151
00:06:09,601 --> 00:06:10,659
No, not for me.

152
00:06:10,769 --> 00:06:12,066
Oh, no, I don't drink.

153
00:06:12,171 --> 00:06:14,162
We're not
gonna card you, darling.

154
00:06:14,206 --> 00:06:16,197
All right, here, join
the circle at least.

155
00:06:16,275 --> 00:06:20,905
Well, to long life and good fortune.

156
00:06:20,979 --> 00:06:22,469
To our esteemed friend

157
00:06:22,514 --> 00:06:24,414
and colleague, John Oldman.

158
00:06:24,483 --> 00:06:26,348
May he find undeserved bliss

159
00:06:26,385 --> 00:06:27,579
wherever he goes.

160
00:06:27,619 --> 00:06:28,586
Hear, hear.

161
00:06:28,620 --> 00:06:30,485
Skol. Na zdorovye.

162
00:06:30,522 --> 00:06:32,387
One off the top, John.

163
00:06:37,496 --> 00:06:39,225
Mm! Oh, that's good.

164
00:06:39,298 --> 00:06:40,424
Excuse me.

165
00:06:42,634 --> 00:06:46,035
John, we're all sorry to see you go.

166
00:06:46,104 --> 00:06:47,128
Truly.

167
00:06:49,641 --> 00:06:51,700
Okay. Now we're done with that,

168
00:06:51,810 --> 00:06:53,778
what do we do for the
rest of the afternoon?

169
00:06:53,812 --> 00:06:55,575
Anyone got a good topic?

170
00:06:55,614 --> 00:06:57,377
Like this, maybe? Heh.

171
00:06:57,416 --> 00:06:58,405
What is that?

172
00:06:58,450 --> 00:07:01,112
It's a burin off a parrot beak.

173
00:07:01,153 --> 00:07:02,950
Inclined chisel point...

174
00:07:02,988 --> 00:07:04,988
Probably early Magdalenian.

175
00:07:05,057 --> 00:07:07,357
<i>- May I see that?</i>
- Sure.

176
00:07:13,165 --> 00:07:14,894
Yes indeed, that's what it is.

177
00:07:16,168 --> 00:07:17,294
What's a burin?

178
00:07:17,369 --> 00:07:18,961
A burin is a flint tool

179
00:07:19,071 --> 00:07:21,596
for grooving wood and
bone, antlers especially,

180
00:07:21,673 --> 00:07:24,107
to make spear and harpoon points.

181
00:07:24,176 --> 00:07:26,167
Magdalenians weren't
noted for flint work,

182
00:07:26,211 --> 00:07:27,940
so this is a very nice specimen.

183
00:07:27,980 --> 00:07:30,448
Okay, what's a Magdalenian?

184
00:07:30,482 --> 00:07:31,881
A later Cro-Magnon,

185
00:07:31,917 --> 00:07:33,179
without gettin' technical.

186
00:07:33,285 --> 00:07:36,379
It's the final culture
of the upper Paleolithic.

187
00:07:36,421 --> 00:07:38,184
If stones could speak, eh, Art?

188
00:07:38,223 --> 00:07:39,918
So where'd you get that, John?

189
00:07:39,992 --> 00:07:42,517
Believe it or not, from a thrift shop.
A quarter.

190
00:07:42,594 --> 00:07:44,084
You lucky dog!

191
00:07:44,196 --> 00:07:46,426
I gotta go digging
for this kind of stuff.

192
00:07:46,498 --> 00:07:47,624
Can I, uh?

193
00:07:47,699 --> 00:07:48,688
Yeah.

194
00:07:52,104 --> 00:07:53,230
Huh.

195
00:07:58,310 --> 00:07:59,937
Maybe...

196
00:08:00,012 --> 00:08:01,479
I'm glad you did this.

197
00:08:01,546 --> 00:08:04,344
Did what? You mean come over?

198
00:08:04,383 --> 00:08:06,044
Maybe?

199
00:08:06,151 --> 00:08:07,379
Definitely.

200
00:08:07,452 --> 00:08:08,749
Gee, thanks.

201
00:08:08,787 --> 00:08:10,084
Well, so are we.

202
00:08:10,155 --> 00:08:11,486
So are we.

203
00:08:11,556 --> 00:08:13,683
We couldn't let you just run off.

204
00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:14,885
Thanks.

205
00:08:16,962 --> 00:08:18,657
John, what is up, huh?

206
00:08:18,764 --> 00:08:20,231
Are you on America's most wanted?

207
00:08:20,265 --> 00:08:21,357
We won't turn you in.

208
00:08:21,466 --> 00:08:22,797
Yeah, come on, out with it.

209
00:08:22,868 --> 00:08:23,800
You're among friends.

210
00:08:23,869 --> 00:08:25,063
Snoopy friends.

211
00:08:25,103 --> 00:08:26,070
Forget it.

212
00:08:26,171 --> 00:08:27,763
You are creating the mystery here.

213
00:08:27,806 --> 00:08:30,104
Obviously, you have something
you'd like to say. Say it!

214
00:08:31,777 --> 00:08:33,369
Well, maybe I...

215
00:08:34,513 --> 00:08:35,741
Ten, nine, eight, seven...

216
00:08:35,781 --> 00:08:36,805
Harry, stop.

217
00:08:38,317 --> 00:08:41,184
There is something I'm
tempted to tell you, I think.

218
00:08:41,219 --> 00:08:44,814
I've never done this before,
and I wonder how it'll pan out.

219
00:08:47,993 --> 00:08:50,291
I wonder if I could ask
you a silly question.

220
00:08:50,329 --> 00:08:51,296
John, we're teachers.

221
00:08:51,330 --> 00:08:53,264
We answer silly questions all the time.

222
00:08:53,298 --> 00:08:54,322
Hey!

223
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:58,062
What if a man from the upper Paleolithic

224
00:08:58,103 --> 00:08:59,900
survived until the present day?

225
00:08:59,938 --> 00:09:01,633
What do you mean, survived?

226
00:09:01,673 --> 00:09:02,935
Never died?

227
00:09:03,008 --> 00:09:05,067
Yes. What would he be like?

228
00:09:05,143 --> 00:09:06,576
Well, I know some guys.

229
00:09:06,645 --> 00:09:08,442
You ever been to the Ozarks?

230
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,243
It's an interesting idea.

231
00:09:10,282 --> 00:09:12,773
What, are you working on
a science fiction story?

232
00:09:12,851 --> 00:09:15,046
Say I am. What would he be like?

233
00:09:15,087 --> 00:09:16,349
Pretty tired.

234
00:09:18,256 --> 00:09:19,985
Well, seriously,

235
00:09:20,058 --> 00:09:22,219
As Art's book title suggests,

236
00:09:22,260 --> 00:09:24,387
he might be like any of us.

237
00:09:24,463 --> 00:09:25,657
Dan. A caveman?

238
00:09:25,764 --> 00:09:27,527
Well, there's no anatomical difference

239
00:09:27,566 --> 00:09:29,295
between, say, a Cro-Magnon and us.

240
00:09:29,368 --> 00:09:31,768
Except that as a rule,
we've grown taller.

241
00:09:31,803 --> 00:09:34,101
What's the selective
advantage of height?

242
00:09:34,172 --> 00:09:36,902
Better to see predators
in tall grass, my dear.

243
00:09:36,975 --> 00:09:39,170
Actually, tall and skinny

244
00:09:39,277 --> 00:09:42,110
radiates heat more
effectively in warmer climates.

245
00:09:42,180 --> 00:09:43,374
And as for Neanderthals,

246
00:09:43,482 --> 00:09:45,143
I mean, we've all seen apish people.

247
00:09:45,183 --> 00:09:46,377
That strain's still with us.

248
00:09:46,418 --> 00:09:48,511
But he'd be a caveman.

249
00:09:48,587 --> 00:09:49,519
No, he wouldn't.

250
00:09:49,588 --> 00:09:50,577
John's hypothetical man

251
00:09:50,622 --> 00:09:52,385
would have lived
through 140 centuries...

252
00:09:52,424 --> 00:09:53,789
Yeah, roughly.

253
00:09:53,825 --> 00:09:56,191
...and changed with every one of them.

254
00:09:56,228 --> 00:09:58,526
I mean, assuming normal intelligence.

255
00:09:58,597 --> 00:10:01,065
Well, we think men of
the upper Paleolithic

256
00:10:01,099 --> 00:10:02,930
were as intelligent as we are.

257
00:10:03,001 --> 00:10:04,696
They just didn't know as much.

258
00:10:04,803 --> 00:10:07,738
John's man would have
learned as the race learned.

259
00:10:07,806 --> 00:10:10,900
In fact, if he had an inquiring mind,

260
00:10:10,942 --> 00:10:14,002
his knowledge might be astonishing.

261
00:10:14,045 --> 00:10:16,309
If you do write that,
let me have a look at it.

262
00:10:16,348 --> 00:10:18,543
I'm sure you'll make some
anthropological boners.

263
00:10:18,617 --> 00:10:19,641
It's a deal.

264
00:10:19,718 --> 00:10:21,549
What would keep him alive?

265
00:10:21,620 --> 00:10:23,417
What does the biologist say?

266
00:10:23,455 --> 00:10:25,047
Cigarettes.

267
00:10:25,123 --> 00:10:26,920
And ice cream.

268
00:10:26,958 --> 00:10:29,017
All right, all right, I'll play.

269
00:10:29,127 --> 00:10:32,790
All right, um, in science fiction terms,

270
00:10:32,831 --> 00:10:34,458
I would say...

271
00:10:36,034 --> 00:10:39,800
Perfect regeneration
of the body's cells,

272
00:10:39,838 --> 00:10:41,931
especially in the vital organs.

273
00:10:41,973 --> 00:10:43,838
Actually, the human
body appears designed

274
00:10:43,875 --> 00:10:45,934
to live about 190 years.

275
00:10:45,977 --> 00:10:49,811
Most of us just die of slow poisoning.

276
00:10:49,848 --> 00:10:51,338
Maybe he did something right,

277
00:10:51,383 --> 00:10:54,682
something everybody else
in history had done wrong.

278
00:10:54,753 --> 00:10:56,084
What, like eat the food,

279
00:10:56,154 --> 00:10:58,145
drink the water, and breathe the air?

280
00:10:58,190 --> 00:11:00,124
Prior to modern times,

281
00:11:00,158 --> 00:11:01,989
those were pristine.

282
00:11:02,027 --> 00:11:06,487
We've extended our lifespan
in a world that's, uh...

283
00:11:06,531 --> 00:11:08,396
not fit to live in.

284
00:11:08,433 --> 00:11:09,900
You know, it could happen.

285
00:11:09,935 --> 00:11:12,233
The pancreas turns over
cells every 24 hours,

286
00:11:12,304 --> 00:11:13,862
the stomach lining in three days,

287
00:11:13,905 --> 00:11:15,463
the entire body in seven years,

288
00:11:15,507 --> 00:11:16,997
but the process falters.

289
00:11:17,108 --> 00:11:19,872
Waste accumulates, eventually
proves fatal to function.

290
00:11:19,911 --> 00:11:22,539
Now if a quirk in his immune system

291
00:11:22,614 --> 00:11:24,309
led to perfect detox,

292
00:11:24,349 --> 00:11:26,317
perfect renewal, then yeah.

293
00:11:26,351 --> 00:11:28,546
He could duck decay.

294
00:11:28,620 --> 00:11:30,850
Mm, that's a secret
we'd all love to have.

295
00:11:30,922 --> 00:11:33,823
Would you really want to do that?

296
00:11:33,859 --> 00:11:35,724
Live 14,000 years?

297
00:11:35,827 --> 00:11:38,557
Well, if I could stay
healthy and I didn't age,

298
00:11:38,630 --> 00:11:39,722
I mean, why not?

299
00:11:39,831 --> 00:11:41,958
Yeah. What a chance to learn.

300
00:11:42,033 --> 00:11:44,831
Is anyone hungry?

301
00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:47,737
You know, the more I think
about it, yeah, it's possible.

302
00:11:47,772 --> 00:11:49,330
Anything is possible, right?

303
00:11:49,374 --> 00:11:52,639
After all, one century's magic,
another century's science.

304
00:11:52,677 --> 00:11:54,804
They thought Columbus
was a nut job, right?

305
00:11:54,846 --> 00:11:55,870
Pasteur, Copernicus?

306
00:11:55,947 --> 00:11:57,574
Aristarchus long before that.

307
00:11:57,649 --> 00:11:58,673
Right.

308
00:11:58,750 --> 00:12:00,980
I had a chance to sail with Columbus,

309
00:12:01,019 --> 00:12:03,385
Only I'm not the adventurous type.

310
00:12:03,421 --> 00:12:06,356
I was pretty sure the Earth was round,

311
00:12:06,391 --> 00:12:09,121
but at that point, I still thought

312
00:12:09,194 --> 00:12:11,890
he might fall off an edge someplace...

313
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,206
Look around, John.

314
00:12:24,242 --> 00:12:25,607
We just did.

315
00:12:25,644 --> 00:12:28,010
I suppose there's a
joke in there somewhere,

316
00:12:28,046 --> 00:12:29,308
but I don't get it.

317
00:12:29,347 --> 00:12:31,212
There's nothing to get.

318
00:12:31,249 --> 00:12:33,012
What are we talking about?

319
00:12:33,118 --> 00:12:34,983
We were just talking about a caveman

320
00:12:35,020 --> 00:12:37,386
who survives until the present time.

321
00:12:37,422 --> 00:12:39,754
As you said, what a chance to learn,

322
00:12:39,824 --> 00:12:41,223
once I learned to learn.

323
00:12:43,428 --> 00:12:45,419
Did you start the whiskey
before we got here?

324
00:12:47,465 --> 00:12:50,400
Pretend it's science fiction.

325
00:12:50,435 --> 00:12:52,164
Figure it out.

326
00:12:52,237 --> 00:12:56,731
Okay, a...
very old Cro-Magnon

327
00:12:56,775 --> 00:12:58,333
living until the present.

328
00:13:00,879 --> 00:13:01,811
Oh!

329
00:13:06,084 --> 00:13:08,075
What?

330
00:13:08,186 --> 00:13:11,053
John just confided that
he's 14,000 years old.

331
00:13:11,089 --> 00:13:14,684
Oh, John, you don't look a day over 900.

332
00:13:14,726 --> 00:13:15,920
Okay, okay.

333
00:13:15,994 --> 00:13:17,774
All right, Spock, I'll
play your little game.

334
00:13:17,796 --> 00:13:20,424
What do you want? What's the punch line?

335
00:13:20,498 --> 00:13:23,126
Every ten years or so, when people start

336
00:13:23,201 --> 00:13:24,896
to notice I don't age, I move on.

337
00:13:27,505 --> 00:13:29,905
That's very good,
that's very quick, John.

338
00:13:29,941 --> 00:13:32,341
I wanna read that
story when you're done.

339
00:13:32,410 --> 00:13:33,843
You want more?

340
00:13:33,912 --> 00:13:35,777
By all means. This is great.

341
00:13:35,814 --> 00:13:36,803
All right, now...

342
00:13:37,916 --> 00:13:40,510
So you think that you are a...

343
00:13:40,552 --> 00:13:41,610
A, uh, Cro-Magnon.

344
00:13:41,653 --> 00:13:43,211
Well, I didn't learn it in school.

345
00:13:43,254 --> 00:13:44,915
That's my best guess,

346
00:13:45,023 --> 00:13:49,460
based on archaeological data,
maps, anthropological research.

347
00:13:49,527 --> 00:13:50,824
Since Mesopotamia,

348
00:13:50,929 --> 00:13:54,057
I've got the last...
4,000 years straight.

349
00:13:54,132 --> 00:13:57,226
You're ahead of most
people, so please, go on.

350
00:13:57,268 --> 00:13:58,826
Well, you know the background stuff,

351
00:13:58,870 --> 00:14:00,269
so I'll make it brief.

352
00:14:00,338 --> 00:14:02,738
In what I call my first lifetime,

353
00:14:02,774 --> 00:14:04,469
I aged to about 35...

354
00:14:04,509 --> 00:14:06,101
what you see.

355
00:14:06,177 --> 00:14:08,304
I ended up leading my group.

356
00:14:08,380 --> 00:14:10,177
They saw me as magical.

357
00:14:10,215 --> 00:14:13,207
I didn't even have to fight for it.

358
00:14:13,284 --> 00:14:16,151
Then fear came, and they chased me away.

359
00:14:16,187 --> 00:14:17,677
They thought that I was

360
00:14:17,722 --> 00:14:20,054
stealing their lives away to stay young.

361
00:14:20,091 --> 00:14:22,389
The prehistoric origin
of the vampire myth.

362
00:14:22,427 --> 00:14:23,325
That is good!

363
00:14:23,395 --> 00:14:24,384
First thousand years,

364
00:14:24,496 --> 00:14:26,521
I didn't know up from sideways.

365
00:14:26,598 --> 00:14:29,032
How do you know the
first thousand years?

366
00:14:29,100 --> 00:14:30,590
An informed guess, based on what

367
00:14:30,635 --> 00:14:32,102
I've learned in my memories.

368
00:14:32,137 --> 00:14:34,196
Most people can scarcely
remember their childhood,

369
00:14:34,239 --> 00:14:36,298
but you have memories of that time?

370
00:14:36,341 --> 00:14:37,899
Like yours, selective.

371
00:14:37,942 --> 00:14:41,309
You know, the high points,
the low points, traumas.

372
00:14:41,346 --> 00:14:43,041
They stick in the mind forever.

373
00:14:43,114 --> 00:14:47,016
Put down at 3 or 35,
you still feel a twinge.

374
00:14:49,521 --> 00:14:50,818
Go on.

375
00:14:50,855 --> 00:14:53,881
I kept getting chased
because I wouldn't die,

376
00:14:53,925 --> 00:14:57,326
so I got the hang of
joining new groups I found.

377
00:14:57,362 --> 00:15:00,729
I also got the idea of
periodically moving on.

378
00:15:01,766 --> 00:15:03,256
We were semi-nomadic, of course,

379
00:15:03,368 --> 00:15:06,303
following the weather
and the game we hunted.

380
00:15:06,371 --> 00:15:08,271
The first 2,000 years were cold.

381
00:15:08,373 --> 00:15:10,933
We learned it was warmer
at lower elevations.

382
00:15:10,975 --> 00:15:13,569
Late glacial period, I assume.

383
00:15:13,611 --> 00:15:16,171
What was the terrain like?

384
00:15:16,214 --> 00:15:19,308
Mountainous.

385
00:15:19,384 --> 00:15:21,284
Vast plains to the west.

386
00:15:22,487 --> 00:15:25,388
West - something you learned in school.

387
00:15:25,423 --> 00:15:27,983
Towards the setting sun.

388
00:15:28,093 --> 00:15:30,391
I suspect I saw the British isles

389
00:15:30,428 --> 00:15:32,726
from what is now the French coast.

390
00:15:32,797 --> 00:15:34,389
Huge mountains...

391
00:15:34,432 --> 00:15:37,162
on the other side of
an enormous deep valley

392
00:15:37,202 --> 00:15:39,102
that was shadowed by the setting sun.

393
00:15:39,137 --> 00:15:41,002
This is before they were separated

394
00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:43,633
from the continent by rising
seas, as glaciers melted.

395
00:15:44,809 --> 00:15:46,242
That happened?

396
00:15:46,311 --> 00:15:48,438
Yes, the end of the Pleistocene.

397
00:15:48,513 --> 00:15:50,504
So far, what he says fits.

398
00:15:50,548 --> 00:15:52,573
Oh, yeah, into any textbook.

399
00:15:52,617 --> 00:15:54,551
And that's where I found it.

400
00:15:54,619 --> 00:15:56,484
How can I have knowledgeable recall

401
00:15:56,521 --> 00:15:58,352
if I didn't have knowledge?

402
00:15:58,423 --> 00:16:00,357
It's all retrospective.

403
00:16:00,425 --> 00:16:02,825
All I can do is
integrate my recollections

404
00:16:02,861 --> 00:16:04,590
with modern findings.

405
00:16:04,662 --> 00:16:07,324
Caveman, you gonna hit me
over the head with a club

406
00:16:07,365 --> 00:16:08,992
and drag me into the bedroom?

407
00:16:09,067 --> 00:16:10,659
You'd be more fun conscious.

408
00:16:10,702 --> 00:16:11,600
Oh, John.

409
00:16:11,669 --> 00:16:12,897
Let me get this straight.

410
00:16:12,971 --> 00:16:14,802
We're not talking about reincarnation.

411
00:16:14,873 --> 00:16:16,670
You're not saying that you remember

412
00:16:16,708 --> 00:16:18,107
whatever the hell it would be,

413
00:16:18,176 --> 00:16:19,473
200 separate lifetimes, dying

414
00:16:19,511 --> 00:16:21,911
and being born again and yada yada?

415
00:16:21,980 --> 00:16:23,413
One lifetime.

416
00:16:24,582 --> 00:16:25,947
Some lifetime.

417
00:16:25,984 --> 00:16:27,281
Wow.

418
00:16:27,318 --> 00:16:29,786
Maybe there is something
to this reincarnation thing.

419
00:16:29,821 --> 00:16:31,083
You're supposed to come back

420
00:16:31,122 --> 00:16:32,714
again and again, learn and learn,

421
00:16:32,791 --> 00:16:34,315
and somehow, John, you just managed

422
00:16:34,392 --> 00:16:35,882
to bypass all the other bodies.

423
00:16:35,927 --> 00:16:38,191
Well, what's the point?

424
00:16:41,232 --> 00:16:43,029
What about oceans?

425
00:16:43,101 --> 00:16:45,399
Didn't see them till much later.

426
00:16:45,436 --> 00:16:47,768
So how would you know
an ocean from a lake?

427
00:16:47,806 --> 00:16:49,603
Big waves - something else.

428
00:16:49,641 --> 00:16:51,836
I can only surmise in retrospect.

429
00:16:51,910 --> 00:16:53,901
Were you curious about
where it all came from?

430
00:16:55,413 --> 00:16:57,574
We would look up at the sky and wonder.

431
00:16:57,615 --> 00:16:59,776
"There's gotta be
some big guys up there.

432
00:16:59,818 --> 00:17:01,479
What else made all this down here?"

433
00:17:01,553 --> 00:17:03,043
At first I thought

434
00:17:03,087 --> 00:17:05,681
there was something wrong with me -

435
00:17:05,757 --> 00:17:08,282
maybe I was a bad guy for not dying.

436
00:17:09,460 --> 00:17:12,691
Then I began to wonder if I was cursed

437
00:17:12,764 --> 00:17:14,959
or perhaps blessed.

438
00:17:15,066 --> 00:17:18,695
Then I thought maybe I had a mission.

439
00:17:18,770 --> 00:17:20,465
Do you still think you do?

440
00:17:20,505 --> 00:17:22,234
God works in mysterious ways.

441
00:17:22,273 --> 00:17:25,606
I think I just happened.

442
00:17:33,384 --> 00:17:34,476
Wow.

443
00:17:34,519 --> 00:17:35,577
Hello?

444
00:17:36,621 --> 00:17:38,486
Yes, Ellie?

445
00:17:38,523 --> 00:17:40,354
What's wrong?

446
00:17:40,391 --> 00:17:41,483
Sandy?

447
00:17:41,526 --> 00:17:42,618
Coming.

448
00:17:45,530 --> 00:17:46,861
Yeah?

449
00:17:46,931 --> 00:17:48,626
Do we have Ellie's midterm here?

450
00:17:51,102 --> 00:17:52,091
Yeah, sorry.

451
00:17:52,203 --> 00:17:54,637
I picked it up with the periodicals.

452
00:17:54,706 --> 00:17:55,934
Got it.

453
00:17:56,007 --> 00:17:57,702
No, you're worried about your parents?

454
00:17:57,742 --> 00:17:59,141
Don't... don't worry.

455
00:17:59,210 --> 00:18:00,507
You passed, C+.

456
00:18:00,545 --> 00:18:02,877
Take care of yourself.

457
00:18:02,947 --> 00:18:04,278
Good kid.

458
00:18:04,349 --> 00:18:06,180
What does pre-med need with history?

459
00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:07,548
Got it.

460
00:18:07,585 --> 00:18:08,882
Thank you.

461
00:18:11,155 --> 00:18:12,315
Sorry, guys.

462
00:18:12,390 --> 00:18:14,051
John, please continue.

463
00:18:14,158 --> 00:18:16,353
Come on, I thought we
were done with that.

464
00:18:16,394 --> 00:18:17,986
No! Let's go on with it.

465
00:18:18,062 --> 00:18:19,359
It's interesting.

466
00:18:19,464 --> 00:18:22,262
Besides, I think he's making
a certain amount of sense.

467
00:18:22,300 --> 00:18:24,860
Like Hegel.
Logic from absurd premises.

468
00:18:24,903 --> 00:18:26,200
That Van Gogh?

469
00:18:26,271 --> 00:18:28,398
He gave it to me.

470
00:18:28,473 --> 00:18:31,169
I was, uh, Jacques Bourne at the time,

471
00:18:31,209 --> 00:18:32,403
A pig farmer.

472
00:18:32,477 --> 00:18:33,774
A pig farmer?

473
00:18:35,079 --> 00:18:37,104
I like to work with my hands.

474
00:18:37,181 --> 00:18:39,274
He would come out to the place, paint.

475
00:18:39,317 --> 00:18:41,376
We talked about capturing nature in art.

476
00:18:41,419 --> 00:18:43,546
Turner, Cezanne, Pissarro.

477
00:18:43,588 --> 00:18:45,522
Oh, the Nolde landscapes.

478
00:18:45,590 --> 00:18:47,387
Not in Van Gogh's time.

479
00:18:47,492 --> 00:18:48,982
He would have loved them, though.

480
00:18:49,027 --> 00:18:49,994
Yes.

481
00:18:50,094 --> 00:18:51,721
Well, I don't understand

482
00:18:51,796 --> 00:18:53,957
why you can't remember
where you're from.

483
00:18:53,998 --> 00:18:55,758
Geography hasn't changed.

484
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,220
I learned that in...

485
00:18:57,226 --> 00:18:58,826
Professor Hensen's tepid lectures.

486
00:18:58,836 --> 00:19:00,201
But you're right.

487
00:19:00,305 --> 00:19:02,330
Where did you live when
you were five years old?

488
00:19:02,373 --> 00:19:03,431
Little Rock.

489
00:19:03,474 --> 00:19:05,465
Your mother, she took you to the market?

490
00:19:05,543 --> 00:19:06,840
Mm-Hmm. What direction was it?

491
00:19:06,878 --> 00:19:08,243
From your house.

492
00:19:08,279 --> 00:19:09,644
I don't know.

493
00:19:09,681 --> 00:19:10,579
How far?

494
00:19:10,648 --> 00:19:12,479
Um, three blocks.

495
00:19:12,550 --> 00:19:14,040
Were there any references

496
00:19:14,085 --> 00:19:15,484
that stuck in your mind?

497
00:19:15,553 --> 00:19:17,020
Well, there was a gas station

498
00:19:17,055 --> 00:19:18,579
and a big field.

499
00:19:18,656 --> 00:19:20,783
I was told I could never go there alone.

500
00:19:20,858 --> 00:19:22,450
And if you went back there today,

501
00:19:22,493 --> 00:19:23,960
Would it be the same?

502
00:19:23,995 --> 00:19:26,862
No. I'm sure it's all
different and built up.

503
00:19:26,898 --> 00:19:29,731
Thus the saying
"You can't go home again".

504
00:19:29,767 --> 00:19:31,029
Because it isn't there anymore.

505
00:19:31,069 --> 00:19:32,798
Picture it on my scale.

506
00:19:32,870 --> 00:19:36,169
I migrated through an endless flat space

507
00:19:36,207 --> 00:19:38,573
full of endless new things.

508
00:19:38,609 --> 00:19:43,478
Forests, mountains, tundra, canyons.

509
00:19:43,514 --> 00:19:47,041
My memory sees what I saw then.

510
00:19:47,085 --> 00:19:50,384
My eye sees freeways, urban sprawl,

511
00:19:50,421 --> 00:19:53,618
Big Macs under the Eiffel tower.

512
00:19:53,691 --> 00:19:56,387
Early on, the world
got bigger and bigger,

513
00:19:56,427 --> 00:19:58,691
and then...

514
00:19:58,796 --> 00:20:00,525
Think what I've had to unlearn.

515
00:20:00,598 --> 00:20:02,395
And now you're moving on.

516
00:20:02,500 --> 00:20:05,162
As you've said, there's
talk of my not aging,

517
00:20:05,203 --> 00:20:07,933
And when that happens, I move on.

518
00:20:08,006 --> 00:20:11,533
Well, it might make sense
to set up your next identity,

519
00:20:11,609 --> 00:20:14,874
Your next ten years, and
then just drop into it.

520
00:20:14,912 --> 00:20:16,641
I've done that a few times,

521
00:20:16,714 --> 00:20:18,511
even passed as my own son.

522
00:20:18,549 --> 00:20:20,312
"Oh, you're an engineer, too?

523
00:20:20,351 --> 00:20:22,819
You're Ben's son. He was a good man."

524
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,514
Saves trouble with
credentials and references.

525
00:20:25,556 --> 00:20:28,184
On the other hand, I've
been busted a few times.

526
00:20:28,226 --> 00:20:31,252
Spent a year in jail, Belgium, 1862...

527
00:20:31,329 --> 00:20:32,921
I won't forget that...

528
00:20:32,964 --> 00:20:34,955
for faking a government application.

529
00:20:35,033 --> 00:20:36,830
When'd you come to America?

530
00:20:36,934 --> 00:20:39,027
1890, right after Van Gogh's death,

531
00:20:39,070 --> 00:20:41,095
With some French immigrants...

532
00:20:41,139 --> 00:20:42,663
Moving on.

533
00:20:45,476 --> 00:20:48,536
An answer for every question.

534
00:20:48,579 --> 00:20:50,274
Except one, John.

535
00:20:50,348 --> 00:20:51,679
Why're you doing this?

536
00:20:54,252 --> 00:20:56,686
A whim. Maybe not such a good idea.

537
00:20:56,754 --> 00:20:58,244
I...

538
00:20:58,289 --> 00:21:01,315
Wanted to say good-bye to you as me,

539
00:21:01,392 --> 00:21:03,257
not what you thought I was.

540
00:21:03,294 --> 00:21:05,125
Well, since this isn't funny,

541
00:21:05,196 --> 00:21:07,630
we think you might have a problem.

542
00:21:07,698 --> 00:21:09,427
A very serious problem.

543
00:21:10,735 --> 00:21:12,498
I've got boxes to move.

544
00:21:12,537 --> 00:21:14,300
I'll give you a hand.

545
00:21:15,506 --> 00:21:20,307
Wouldn't you have
some relic, an artifact

546
00:21:20,344 --> 00:21:22,744
to remind you of your early life?

547
00:21:22,814 --> 00:21:24,247
Like this, maybe?

548
00:21:24,315 --> 00:21:25,646
Thrift shop.

549
00:21:25,716 --> 00:21:26,740
Really.

550
00:21:29,053 --> 00:21:31,419
If you lived 100... 1,000 years...

551
00:21:34,025 --> 00:21:35,424
Would you still have this?

552
00:21:35,460 --> 00:21:37,428
What would cause you to keep it?

553
00:21:37,462 --> 00:21:39,396
As a memento to your beginnings,

554
00:21:39,430 --> 00:21:40,920
even if you didn't have

555
00:21:40,965 --> 00:21:42,990
the concept of beginnings?

556
00:21:43,034 --> 00:21:45,025
It would be gone, lost.

557
00:21:46,170 --> 00:21:47,228
No.

558
00:21:47,271 --> 00:21:49,068
I don't have artifacts.

559
00:21:51,542 --> 00:21:52,941
Keep that.

560
00:21:55,079 --> 00:21:56,341
Interesting.

561
00:21:57,949 --> 00:22:00,076
You could have lied about that.

562
00:22:00,151 --> 00:22:02,176
Don't talk about me while I'm gone.

563
00:22:10,194 --> 00:22:11,991
Is he serious?

564
00:22:12,029 --> 00:22:14,793
If he is, I'm sorry to say he's...

565
00:22:14,832 --> 00:22:17,733
Oh, how could he have
concealed that for ten years?

566
00:22:17,802 --> 00:22:19,895
Least he doesn't appear to be dangerous.

567
00:22:22,540 --> 00:22:23,700
What are you doing?

568
00:22:23,808 --> 00:22:25,776
Checkin' for a hidden mic.

569
00:22:25,810 --> 00:22:27,141
Candid camera.

570
00:22:29,013 --> 00:22:30,913
He's fabricating these wild stories.

571
00:22:30,948 --> 00:22:32,882
I've never seen him acting like this.

572
00:22:32,917 --> 00:22:35,010
Oh, it's crazy.

573
00:22:35,052 --> 00:22:38,510
All right, all right,
as soon as you can, then.

574
00:22:45,062 --> 00:22:46,723
I love you, you know.

575
00:22:48,065 --> 00:22:49,532
I know.

576
00:22:51,335 --> 00:22:54,065
Since my first week at the office.

577
00:22:58,142 --> 00:22:59,074
And?

578
00:22:59,143 --> 00:23:02,374
I care very much about you,

579
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,005
but now you know what
you'd be getting into.

580
00:23:05,082 --> 00:23:06,947
Do you really think you're a caveman?

581
00:23:06,984 --> 00:23:08,508
Do you?

582
00:23:14,592 --> 00:23:15,786
Could you love me,

583
00:23:15,893 --> 00:23:18,293
or don't you believe in that anymore?

584
00:23:19,697 --> 00:23:21,927
I've gotten over it too many times.

585
00:23:23,501 --> 00:23:24,991
Fond of you...

586
00:23:26,304 --> 00:23:28,636
certainly attracted to you.

587
00:23:31,042 --> 00:23:32,009
That's it?

588
00:23:36,113 --> 00:23:37,546
I can work with that.

589
00:23:40,751 --> 00:23:43,276
If what I'm saying is true,

590
00:23:43,321 --> 00:23:45,846
you and any children will age.

591
00:23:45,923 --> 00:23:47,117
I won't.

592
00:23:47,225 --> 00:23:49,125
And one day I'll leave.

593
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,129
You'll go back to your
May-December romances.

594
00:23:52,163 --> 00:23:53,255
The simple fact is

595
00:23:53,331 --> 00:23:55,322
that I can't give you forever.

596
00:23:57,335 --> 00:23:58,734
How long's forever?

597
00:24:00,771 --> 00:24:02,602
Who ever really has it?

598
00:24:06,277 --> 00:24:09,178
My parents split up before I was born,

599
00:24:09,213 --> 00:24:12,148
And then my mom's next marriage lasted

600
00:24:12,183 --> 00:24:13,616
what, a whole three years?

601
00:24:15,620 --> 00:24:18,521
Then there's death,
illness, acts of god...

602
00:24:20,691 --> 00:24:22,716
No one knows how long they have.

603
00:24:24,495 --> 00:24:26,190
Or how little.

604
00:24:29,634 --> 00:24:30,999
I love you.

605
00:24:32,903 --> 00:24:34,495
Take whatever you can get.

606
00:24:37,541 --> 00:24:39,099
Like ten years?

607
00:24:45,116 --> 00:24:46,515
Ah! Ha ha ha!

608
00:24:48,019 --> 00:24:48,951
Uhn!

609
00:24:49,020 --> 00:24:49,918
Oh.

610
00:24:49,954 --> 00:24:51,945
Why did you do that?

611
00:24:52,023 --> 00:24:54,651
I wanted to see how fast you
were. Check your reflexes.

612
00:24:54,725 --> 00:24:56,818
I don't have eyes in
the back of my head,

613
00:24:56,861 --> 00:24:58,624
I can't hear a flea walking,

614
00:24:58,663 --> 00:25:00,324
I am not in any way superman.

615
00:25:00,431 --> 00:25:02,763
Well, I'm a second-degree black belt.

616
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,597
Give it another thousand years.

617
00:25:06,270 --> 00:25:08,261
Well. I got it, I got it, I got it.

618
00:25:09,874 --> 00:25:10,806
Jesus.

619
00:25:10,875 --> 00:25:12,740
Smooth demonstration, Harry.

620
00:25:12,777 --> 00:25:14,768
Sit on it, Dan.

621
00:25:15,980 --> 00:25:17,504
I still have questions.

622
00:25:17,581 --> 00:25:19,310
I-I do too, John.

623
00:25:19,383 --> 00:25:21,977
I mean, are we done with prehistory yet?

624
00:25:22,019 --> 00:25:24,886
Remember any of your original language?

625
00:25:24,922 --> 00:25:27,789
A little. One thing
hasn't changed much...

626
00:25:31,495 --> 00:25:33,395
Did you ever do any cave art?

627
00:25:33,431 --> 00:25:35,456
Do you know the rock art at Les Eyzies?

628
00:25:35,499 --> 00:25:36,591
Mm-Hmm.

629
00:25:36,634 --> 00:25:39,000
It was the work of a man named...

630
00:25:40,538 --> 00:25:41,596
Giraud.

631
00:25:41,639 --> 00:25:43,266
He did a pretty good job.

632
00:25:43,307 --> 00:25:45,741
He would draw the animals

633
00:25:45,810 --> 00:25:48,108
that we hoped to find to eat.

634
00:25:48,145 --> 00:25:50,204
One day after a fruitless hunt,

635
00:25:50,247 --> 00:25:52,374
our chief stomped his teeth out

636
00:25:52,416 --> 00:25:54,441
because his magic had failed him.

637
00:25:54,518 --> 00:25:57,544
After that, someone had
to chew his food for him.

638
00:25:57,621 --> 00:25:59,418
Finally, he got, I suspect,

639
00:25:59,457 --> 00:26:01,448
an infected jaw,

640
00:26:01,492 --> 00:26:03,153
and he was abandoned.

641
00:26:03,194 --> 00:26:04,957
That's awful.

642
00:26:04,995 --> 00:26:06,792
You have to know what to kill.

643
00:26:06,864 --> 00:26:08,559
Is this why all your students

644
00:26:08,599 --> 00:26:10,965
say your knowledge of history is...

645
00:26:11,001 --> 00:26:11,990
so amazing?

646
00:26:12,069 --> 00:26:14,094
No, that's mostly based on study.

647
00:26:14,171 --> 00:26:18,437
Remember, it's one man,
one place at a time,

648
00:26:18,476 --> 00:26:20,706
My solitary viewpoint

649
00:26:20,778 --> 00:26:23,474
of a world I knew almost nothing about.

650
00:26:23,514 --> 00:26:24,674
Well, let's talk about

651
00:26:24,782 --> 00:26:26,773
what you say you do know about:

652
00:26:26,817 --> 00:26:28,216
Historical times.

653
00:26:28,285 --> 00:26:29,616
Don't encourage him.

654
00:26:29,687 --> 00:26:30,813
Edith.

655
00:26:30,888 --> 00:26:33,721
Next few thousand years, it got warmer.

656
00:26:33,791 --> 00:26:35,088
A few thousand years...

657
00:26:35,192 --> 00:26:37,660
See, now I know you're guessing.

658
00:26:37,695 --> 00:26:40,163
You can't get there from here, Art.

659
00:26:40,197 --> 00:26:42,529
Well then, pray, continue.

660
00:26:43,634 --> 00:26:45,534
We hunted reindeer, mammoths,

661
00:26:45,603 --> 00:26:47,503
bison, horses,

662
00:26:47,538 --> 00:26:49,062
The game retreated northward

663
00:26:49,106 --> 00:26:50,232
as the climate changed.

664
00:26:50,307 --> 00:26:52,400
You got the idea of growing food

665
00:26:52,443 --> 00:26:54,206
rather than gathering it,

666
00:26:54,245 --> 00:26:56,372
raising animals rather
than hunting them.

667
00:26:56,414 --> 00:26:58,006
Am-Am I getting warm, here?

668
00:26:58,048 --> 00:26:59,515
I bet I am.

669
00:26:59,550 --> 00:27:01,984
Lakeside living becomes commonplace,

670
00:27:02,052 --> 00:27:03,576
fishing, fowling...
come on!

671
00:27:04,755 --> 00:27:06,882
John, this is out of any textbook.

672
00:27:06,957 --> 00:27:07,889
Even yours.

673
00:27:07,958 --> 00:27:10,756
You got most of it right.

674
00:27:10,861 --> 00:27:12,829
Eventually I headed to the east.

675
00:27:12,863 --> 00:27:15,024
I'd grown curious about the world.

676
00:27:15,065 --> 00:27:17,625
I'd gotten the hang of going it alone,

677
00:27:17,668 --> 00:27:20,228
Learning how to fit in when I wanted to.

678
00:27:20,271 --> 00:27:22,068
East.

679
00:27:22,173 --> 00:27:23,970
Towards the rising sun?

680
00:27:24,074 --> 00:27:26,804
Yes. I thought it might be warmer there.

681
00:27:28,078 --> 00:27:30,979
That's when I saw an ocean.

682
00:27:32,483 --> 00:27:34,917
The Mediterranean, probably.

683
00:27:34,985 --> 00:27:37,317
It was around the
beginning of the bronze age,

684
00:27:37,388 --> 00:27:39,618
So I followed the trade
routes from the east,

685
00:27:39,690 --> 00:27:40,884
Copper, tin,

686
00:27:40,925 --> 00:27:44,019
Learning languages as I went.

687
00:27:44,094 --> 00:27:47,120
Everywhere, creation myths,

688
00:27:47,198 --> 00:27:49,928
new gods, so many, so different.

689
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,628
I finally realized that it was...

690
00:27:52,703 --> 00:27:55,194
probably all hogwash,

691
00:27:55,306 --> 00:27:57,797
So I was Sumerian for 2,000 years,

692
00:27:57,908 --> 00:28:00,172
Then finally Babylonian under Hammurabi.

693
00:28:00,211 --> 00:28:01,644
Great man.

694
00:28:01,679 --> 00:28:04,170
And I sailed as a Phoenician for a time.

695
00:28:04,248 --> 00:28:07,445
See, moving on had been
easier as a hunter-gatherer...

696
00:28:09,086 --> 00:28:11,486
Difficult when villages emerged,

697
00:28:11,555 --> 00:28:14,991
tougher still in city states
where authority was centralized.

698
00:28:15,059 --> 00:28:16,754
Strangers were suspect.

699
00:28:16,861 --> 00:28:20,490
It seemed as though I
was always moving on.

700
00:28:20,564 --> 00:28:22,464
I learned some new tricks...

701
00:28:22,500 --> 00:28:25,162
even faked my death a couple of times.

702
00:28:27,371 --> 00:28:29,464
I continued east

703
00:28:29,507 --> 00:28:31,270
to India,

704
00:28:31,308 --> 00:28:34,766
luckily at the time of the Buddha.

705
00:28:34,812 --> 00:28:35,972
Luckily.

706
00:28:38,716 --> 00:28:41,446
Most extraordinary man I've ever known.

707
00:28:41,485 --> 00:28:42,577
He taught me things

708
00:28:42,620 --> 00:28:44,952
I'd never thought about before.

709
00:28:44,989 --> 00:28:47,287
You studied... with the Buddha?

710
00:28:47,324 --> 00:28:48,791
Until he died.

711
00:28:50,094 --> 00:28:53,029
He knew there was something
different about me.

712
00:28:53,097 --> 00:28:55,463
I never told him.

713
00:28:55,499 --> 00:28:57,831
This is fascinating.

714
00:28:57,902 --> 00:29:00,132
I almost wish it were true.

715
00:29:00,204 --> 00:29:03,867
Yeah, if it was true,
why are you telling us?

716
00:29:03,941 --> 00:29:05,568
I mean, we might leave here today,

717
00:29:05,643 --> 00:29:07,167
Go out there, tell everybody.

718
00:29:07,244 --> 00:29:08,734
It would vanish in disbelief.

719
00:29:09,947 --> 00:29:12,381
A story that goes around the room.

720
00:29:12,449 --> 00:29:14,440
No credibility.

721
00:29:14,485 --> 00:29:17,579
Even if I could make you believe me,

722
00:29:17,655 --> 00:29:19,282
in a month, you wouldn't.

723
00:29:19,356 --> 00:29:21,847
Some of you would call me a psychopath,

724
00:29:21,892 --> 00:29:24,360
Others would be angry
at a pointless joke.

725
00:29:24,395 --> 00:29:26,386
Some of us are angry now.

726
00:29:26,463 --> 00:29:28,363
This-this was a bad idea.

727
00:29:28,399 --> 00:29:31,129
Uh, I love you all, and I do not want

728
00:29:31,168 --> 00:29:32,499
to put you through anything.

729
00:29:32,570 --> 00:29:33,764
Then why are you doing it?

730
00:29:33,871 --> 00:29:36,135
'Cause I wanted
to say good-bye...

731
00:29:36,173 --> 00:29:37,071
As yourself.

732
00:29:37,174 --> 00:29:38,664
I think you've done that,

733
00:29:38,709 --> 00:29:39,767
whoever that self is.

734
00:29:39,810 --> 00:29:40,970
Easy, Edith.

735
00:29:41,078 --> 00:29:42,670
We're just grading his homework.

736
00:29:42,713 --> 00:29:45,511
I see what's going on. You're
playing the good cop, Dan.

737
00:29:45,583 --> 00:29:46,811
That's fine. Just enjoy it.

738
00:29:46,884 --> 00:29:49,512
All right, I think this
whole thing is just a crock!

739
00:29:49,587 --> 00:29:51,282
I should leave, but I'm gonna stay.

740
00:29:51,322 --> 00:29:54,018
You know why? 'Cause I wanna
see what this is all about.

741
00:29:54,091 --> 00:29:55,524
So do I. What is this all about?

742
00:29:55,593 --> 00:29:57,686
Let's ask Dr. Freud,
who's just arrived.

743
00:29:57,728 --> 00:29:59,093
Hey, Will! Will!

744
00:30:01,098 --> 00:30:02,030
Art. Hey.

745
00:30:03,334 --> 00:30:04,392
John!

746
00:30:04,435 --> 00:30:05,902
I'm glad I caught you.

747
00:30:05,936 --> 00:30:07,836
Someone mentioned
that you were leaving...

748
00:30:07,905 --> 00:30:09,736
Called you, told you that I've lost it.

749
00:30:09,807 --> 00:30:12,537
Glad you're here. Things are
going in unexpected directions.

750
00:30:12,610 --> 00:30:13,838
Yes, so I hear.

751
00:30:13,911 --> 00:30:15,105
Hi.

752
00:30:15,145 --> 00:30:16,703
Are you hungry?

753
00:30:16,747 --> 00:30:18,237
Uh, thank you, no.

754
00:30:18,315 --> 00:30:20,476
Whiskey? Johnny Walker green.

755
00:30:20,517 --> 00:30:22,508
Oh, yes.

756
00:30:25,923 --> 00:30:28,483
You look very familiar,
my dear. Linda Murphy.

757
00:30:28,525 --> 00:30:31,085
I'm in your Tuesday
psych 1 class, Dr. Gruber.

758
00:30:31,128 --> 00:30:33,653
Ah, well, this lesson may be something

759
00:30:33,731 --> 00:30:36,723
I could not have imagined.

760
00:30:36,767 --> 00:30:41,067
I regret being so
obvious about this, John,

761
00:30:41,138 --> 00:30:44,403
but these people are all
very concerned for you.

762
00:30:44,441 --> 00:30:47,035
Yes, I'm cutting out paper dinosaurs.

763
00:30:47,077 --> 00:30:50,240
I really wish I'd been
here from the beginning.

764
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:51,247
Me too.

765
00:30:51,348 --> 00:30:53,282
Let me just say something right now.

766
00:30:53,350 --> 00:30:55,682
There's absolutely no
way in the whole world

767
00:30:55,753 --> 00:30:58,449
for John to prove this story to us,

768
00:30:58,489 --> 00:31:01,390
just like there's no way
for us to disprove it.

769
00:31:01,425 --> 00:31:03,586
No matter how outrageous we think it is,

770
00:31:03,627 --> 00:31:06,892
no matter how highly trained
some of us think we are,

771
00:31:06,930 --> 00:31:09,091
there's absolutely
no way to disprove it.

772
00:31:09,133 --> 00:31:13,593
Our friend is either a
caveman, a liar, or a nut.

773
00:31:13,637 --> 00:31:15,104
So while we're thinking about that,

774
00:31:15,139 --> 00:31:17,767
why don't we just go with it?

775
00:31:17,808 --> 00:31:19,207
I mean, hell, who knows,

776
00:31:19,309 --> 00:31:21,277
he might jolt us into believing him,

777
00:31:21,311 --> 00:31:23,302
or we might jolt him back to reality.

778
00:31:23,347 --> 00:31:25,815
Believing? Whose reality?

779
00:31:25,849 --> 00:31:28,317
So... you're a caveman.

780
00:31:28,352 --> 00:31:29,614
Yes. Uh...

781
00:31:29,653 --> 00:31:33,054
Uh, I was a Cro-Magnon, I think.

782
00:31:33,123 --> 00:31:35,887
You don't know if
you're a caveman or not?

783
00:31:35,926 --> 00:31:37,188
No, I'm sure about that.

784
00:31:37,227 --> 00:31:38,319
A Cro-Magnon, then.

785
00:31:38,362 --> 00:31:40,421
When did you first realize this?

786
00:31:40,531 --> 00:31:42,658
When the Cro-Magnon
was first identified,

787
00:31:42,733 --> 00:31:44,792
when anthropology gave them a name,

788
00:31:44,835 --> 00:31:46,268
I had mine.

789
00:31:46,336 --> 00:31:47,735
Well, please continue.

790
00:31:47,771 --> 00:31:49,671
I'm sure you must have more to say.

791
00:31:49,740 --> 00:31:51,640
Would you like me to lie on the couch?

792
00:31:51,675 --> 00:31:54,235
As you wish.

793
00:31:56,146 --> 00:31:58,671
As a physician, I'm curious.

794
00:31:58,749 --> 00:32:02,014
In this enormous lifetime you describe,

795
00:32:02,086 --> 00:32:03,849
have you ever been ill?

796
00:32:03,887 --> 00:32:05,684
Sure, as much as anyone.

797
00:32:05,723 --> 00:32:07,247
Seriously ill?

798
00:32:07,291 --> 00:32:08,724
Sometimes.

799
00:32:08,792 --> 00:32:10,692
Of what? Do you know?

800
00:32:10,794 --> 00:32:12,318
In prehistory, I can't tell you.

801
00:32:12,396 --> 00:32:13,886
Maybe pneumonia once or twice.

802
00:32:15,933 --> 00:32:17,798
Last few hundred years,

803
00:32:17,835 --> 00:32:20,998
I've gotten over typhoid, yellow fever,

804
00:32:21,038 --> 00:32:24,166
smallpox... I survived the black plague.

805
00:32:24,208 --> 00:32:25,436
Bubonic?

806
00:32:25,509 --> 00:32:26,840
Oh, that's terrible.

807
00:32:26,910 --> 00:32:28,605
More so than history describes.

808
00:32:28,645 --> 00:32:32,172
And smallpox...
But you're not scarred.

809
00:32:32,216 --> 00:32:33,342
I don't scar.

810
00:32:33,417 --> 00:32:34,782
No, John, that is not possible.

811
00:32:34,818 --> 00:32:36,115
Please, let's take John's story

812
00:32:36,153 --> 00:32:39,247
at face value and explore
it from that perspective.

813
00:32:39,323 --> 00:32:42,383
If he doesn't scar, it's
no stranger than the rest.

814
00:32:42,426 --> 00:32:44,860
John, would you please stop by my lab,

815
00:32:44,928 --> 00:32:46,657
suffer a few tests from

816
00:32:46,730 --> 00:32:48,561
your friendly neighborhood biologist.

817
00:32:48,632 --> 00:32:49,860
I'm leery of labs.

818
00:32:49,933 --> 00:32:52,231
Afraid I might go in and
stay for a thousand years

819
00:32:52,269 --> 00:32:54,567
while cigarette smoking
men try to figure me out.

820
00:32:54,638 --> 00:32:56,435
You don't think that I would betray you?

821
00:32:56,473 --> 00:32:57,872
Walls have ears.

822
00:32:57,941 --> 00:33:00,432
Medical tests might be a
way of proving what you say.

823
00:33:00,477 --> 00:33:01,569
I don't wanna prove it.

824
00:33:01,612 --> 00:33:02,738
So you're telling us this,

825
00:33:02,780 --> 00:33:03,872
the yarn of the century,

826
00:33:03,914 --> 00:33:05,643
And you don't care if
we believe it or not?

827
00:33:05,682 --> 00:33:07,343
I guess I shouldn't
have expected you to.

828
00:33:07,384 --> 00:33:09,011
You're not as crazy as you think I am.

829
00:33:09,086 --> 00:33:09,984
Amen.

830
00:33:10,020 --> 00:33:11,487
I've always liked you.

831
00:33:11,522 --> 00:33:12,921
Why, thank you, dear.

832
00:33:12,990 --> 00:33:14,290
Now that's changing.

833
00:33:14,291 --> 00:33:15,891
Surely you don't believe this nonsense.

834
00:33:15,893 --> 00:33:17,918
I think we should remain
courteous to someone

835
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,520
who we've known and trusted, Edith.

836
00:33:19,596 --> 00:33:22,292
Here you sit.
You can't break his story.

837
00:33:22,332 --> 00:33:24,994
All you can do is thumb your nose at it.

838
00:33:25,035 --> 00:33:27,026
Is that what you're doing, John?

839
00:33:27,104 --> 00:33:28,696
Are you laughing at us inside?

840
00:33:28,739 --> 00:33:30,297
I wish you didn't feel that way.

841
00:33:30,407 --> 00:33:33,740
What you're saying,
it offends common sense.

842
00:33:33,811 --> 00:33:35,540
So does relativity, quantum mechanics...

843
00:33:35,612 --> 00:33:37,204
That's the way nature works.

844
00:33:37,314 --> 00:33:41,648
But your story doesn't fit
into nature as we know it.

845
00:33:41,718 --> 00:33:43,413
But we know so little, Dan.

846
00:33:44,521 --> 00:33:45,715
We know so little.

847
00:33:45,756 --> 00:33:46,916
How many of you know

848
00:33:46,957 --> 00:33:48,219
five geniuses in your field

849
00:33:48,258 --> 00:33:49,452
that you disagree with...

850
00:33:49,526 --> 00:33:51,118
One you would like to strangle?

851
00:33:51,161 --> 00:33:53,254
Strangle them all.

852
00:33:53,330 --> 00:33:54,957
It's bad enough we have to listen

853
00:33:55,032 --> 00:33:56,226
to Harry's idiotic jokes.

854
00:33:56,266 --> 00:33:57,426
Thank you very much, Edith.

855
00:33:57,467 --> 00:33:59,867
Maybe when I'm 110, I'll
be as smart as you are.

856
00:33:59,937 --> 00:34:01,268
If you lived as long as John did,

857
00:34:01,305 --> 00:34:02,932
you still wouldn't grow up.

858
00:34:02,973 --> 00:34:04,565
Come on, guys. Take it easy.

859
00:34:04,608 --> 00:34:07,076
How often do we get to meet someone

860
00:34:07,110 --> 00:34:10,511
who says he's a stone age man?

861
00:34:10,581 --> 00:34:11,809
Well, once is enough.

862
00:34:11,882 --> 00:34:13,179
Edith.

863
00:34:13,283 --> 00:34:15,342
All right. A guy with your mind...

864
00:34:15,385 --> 00:34:17,376
you'd have studied a great deal.

865
00:34:17,454 --> 00:34:20,890
I have ten degrees,
including all of yours...

866
00:34:20,924 --> 00:34:23,290
Except yours, Will.

867
00:34:23,327 --> 00:34:25,488
That makes me feel a trifle Lilliputian.

868
00:34:25,529 --> 00:34:27,827
That's over the span of 170 years.

869
00:34:27,898 --> 00:34:31,128
I got my biology degree
at Oxford in 1840.

870
00:34:31,201 --> 00:34:32,901
So I'm a little behind the times.

871
00:34:32,902 --> 00:34:34,402
The same in other areas...

872
00:34:34,404 --> 00:34:36,804
I can't keep up with the
new stuff that comes along.

873
00:34:36,807 --> 00:34:37,807
No one can.

874
00:34:37,875 --> 00:34:39,225
Not even in their specialty.

875
00:34:39,300 --> 00:34:40,500
So much for the myth

876
00:34:40,502 --> 00:34:42,302
of the super-wise,
all-knowing immortal.

877
00:34:42,546 --> 00:34:44,346
I see your point, John.

878
00:34:44,548 --> 00:34:46,140
No matter how long a man lives,

879
00:34:46,216 --> 00:34:48,309
he can't be in advance of his times.

880
00:34:48,352 --> 00:34:51,344
He can't know more than
the best of the race knows.

881
00:34:51,421 --> 00:34:54,356
If that. I mean, when the
world learned it was round,

882
00:34:54,424 --> 00:34:55,686
you learned it.

883
00:34:55,726 --> 00:34:57,057
It took some time.

884
00:34:57,127 --> 00:34:58,321
News traveled slowly

885
00:34:58,428 --> 00:35:00,293
before communications were fancy.

886
00:35:00,330 --> 00:35:02,855
There were social obstacles,

887
00:35:02,900 --> 00:35:06,097
preconceptions, screams from the church.

888
00:35:06,169 --> 00:35:07,269
Ten doctorates.

889
00:35:07,304 --> 00:35:09,169
That's impressive, John.
Did you teach them?

890
00:35:09,206 --> 00:35:10,503
Some.

891
00:35:10,574 --> 00:35:13,168
You might have all done the same.

892
00:35:13,210 --> 00:35:16,338
Living 14,000 years
didn't make me a genius.

893
00:35:16,380 --> 00:35:17,677
I just had time.

894
00:35:17,714 --> 00:35:19,272
Time.

895
00:35:19,383 --> 00:35:21,283
We can't see it, we can't hear it,

896
00:35:21,385 --> 00:35:25,048
we can't weigh it, we can't
measure it in a laboratory.

897
00:35:25,088 --> 00:35:27,283
It's a subjective sense of becoming

898
00:35:27,391 --> 00:35:31,828
what we are instead of what
we were a nanosecond ago,

899
00:35:31,895 --> 00:35:34,261
becoming what we will
be in another nanosecond.

900
00:35:34,298 --> 00:35:36,289
The Hopis see time as a landscape,

901
00:35:36,333 --> 00:35:38,767
existing before and behind us,

902
00:35:38,802 --> 00:35:41,236
and we move...
we move through it,

903
00:35:41,305 --> 00:35:43,000
slice by slice.

904
00:35:43,106 --> 00:35:44,300
Clocks measure time.

905
00:35:44,408 --> 00:35:45,705
No, they measure themselves.

906
00:35:45,809 --> 00:35:48,107
The objective referent
of clock is another clock.

907
00:35:48,211 --> 00:35:50,543
How very interesting. What
has it got to do with John?

908
00:35:50,614 --> 00:35:52,605
Oh, he... he might be a man

909
00:35:52,649 --> 00:35:57,643
who lives outside of time as we know it.

910
00:36:00,223 --> 00:36:02,589
Yes, uh, well.

911
00:36:02,659 --> 00:36:05,753
People do go around armed these days.

912
00:36:05,796 --> 00:36:08,890
If I shot you, John...
You're immortal?

913
00:36:08,932 --> 00:36:10,866
Would you survive this?

914
00:36:10,901 --> 00:36:13,665
I never said I was immortal, just old.

915
00:36:13,704 --> 00:36:14,864
I might die.

916
00:36:14,905 --> 00:36:16,270
And then you could wonder

917
00:36:16,373 --> 00:36:18,705
the rest of your incarcerated
life what you shot.

918
00:36:20,410 --> 00:36:23,174
Well, uh, may I?

919
00:36:24,881 --> 00:36:26,473
Preferable to a gun.

920
00:36:26,516 --> 00:36:29,815
Will, that was a bit much.

921
00:36:29,886 --> 00:36:32,446
Ooh. Books.

922
00:36:32,489 --> 00:36:35,014
Doctorates.

923
00:36:35,092 --> 00:36:38,289
Yes, you have grown and changed.

924
00:36:38,328 --> 00:36:40,728
But there is always innate nature.

925
00:36:40,797 --> 00:36:43,129
Wouldn't you be more comfortable

926
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:44,758
squatting in the backyard?

927
00:36:44,801 --> 00:36:46,268
Sometimes I do, Will.

928
00:36:46,303 --> 00:36:47,770
Look up at the stars.

929
00:36:47,804 --> 00:36:48,793
Wonder.

930
00:36:48,839 --> 00:36:51,239
And what did primitive man make of them?

931
00:36:51,308 --> 00:36:53,139
A great mystery.

932
00:36:53,210 --> 00:36:55,610
There were gods up there then.

933
00:36:55,645 --> 00:36:58,136
Shamans who knew about them told us.

934
00:36:58,215 --> 00:36:59,409
They still do.

935
00:37:00,951 --> 00:37:02,851
Have you ever wished it would end?

936
00:37:05,455 --> 00:37:06,387
No.

937
00:37:06,456 --> 00:37:08,788
Fourteen thousand years.

938
00:37:08,859 --> 00:37:11,487
Injuries, illness, disasters.

939
00:37:11,561 --> 00:37:13,859
You've survived them all.

940
00:37:13,897 --> 00:37:16,195
You're a very lucky man.

941
00:37:21,505 --> 00:37:22,767
Come in.

942
00:37:25,709 --> 00:37:26,801
John Oldman?

943
00:37:26,877 --> 00:37:28,174
Yes.

944
00:37:28,211 --> 00:37:30,131
Charity now. We're here
to pick up the furniture.

945
00:37:30,180 --> 00:37:31,875
It's all yours.

946
00:37:31,982 --> 00:37:33,176
Here, take this chair.

947
00:37:33,216 --> 00:37:35,184
I'm gonna go drink in the corner.

948
00:37:37,187 --> 00:37:39,747
You're, uh... you're donating it?

949
00:37:39,790 --> 00:37:40,984
Everything?

950
00:37:41,024 --> 00:37:42,116
I'll get more.

951
00:37:42,192 --> 00:37:43,716
Do you always travel this light?

952
00:37:43,794 --> 00:37:45,887
It's the only way to move.

953
00:37:47,531 --> 00:37:49,331
Oh, you...

954
00:37:49,499 --> 00:37:50,989
you've talked a good deal

955
00:37:51,034 --> 00:37:54,265
about your extraordinary
amount of living.

956
00:37:54,304 --> 00:37:56,465
What do you think of dying, John?

957
00:37:56,506 --> 00:37:58,098
Do you fear death?

958
00:37:58,141 --> 00:37:59,403
Who wouldn't?

959
00:37:59,443 --> 00:38:01,502
How did primitive man regard death?

960
00:38:01,545 --> 00:38:03,638
Well, we had the practical concept.

961
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,614
You know, we stopped,

962
00:38:05,649 --> 00:38:07,480
fell down, didn't get up,

963
00:38:07,551 --> 00:38:09,746
Started to smell bad, come apart.

964
00:38:09,786 --> 00:38:11,879
Injuries we could understand.

965
00:38:11,955 --> 00:38:14,480
If someone's insides
were all over the ground.

966
00:38:14,558 --> 00:38:15,855
Infections...

967
00:38:15,892 --> 00:38:20,352
They were, uh, mysterious.

968
00:38:21,498 --> 00:38:22,897
Aging...

969
00:38:22,966 --> 00:38:24,456
The biggest mystery of all.

970
00:38:24,501 --> 00:38:26,492
You realized you were different.

971
00:38:26,570 --> 00:38:29,596
Longer to realize how I was different,

972
00:38:29,673 --> 00:38:31,470
to find a way to synthesize

973
00:38:31,508 --> 00:38:33,999
my experience into a view of myself.

974
00:38:34,077 --> 00:38:36,511
At first, I thought everybody had

975
00:38:36,580 --> 00:38:38,275
something wrong with them.

976
00:38:38,381 --> 00:38:41,942
They got old and they
died, animals, too...

977
00:38:41,985 --> 00:38:42,974
but not me.

978
00:38:45,989 --> 00:38:48,822
Oh, forgive me, my dear.

979
00:38:48,892 --> 00:38:50,484
You live simply.

980
00:38:50,527 --> 00:38:53,018
I've owned castles, but why leave a lot

981
00:38:53,096 --> 00:38:54,324
if you're always leaving?

982
00:38:54,397 --> 00:38:55,523
I have money.

983
00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:58,329
What, you get into
AT&T at 50 cents, John?

984
00:39:00,537 --> 00:39:02,164
As one grows older,

985
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:07,575
the days, weeks, months
go by more quickly.

986
00:39:07,644 --> 00:39:10,670
What does a day or a year

987
00:39:10,747 --> 00:39:13,272
or a century mean to you?

988
00:39:13,350 --> 00:39:15,875
The birth-death cycle?

989
00:39:15,952 --> 00:39:17,510
Turbulence.

990
00:39:17,554 --> 00:39:19,078
I meet someone,

991
00:39:19,156 --> 00:39:21,989
learn their name, say
a word, they're gone.

992
00:39:22,058 --> 00:39:26,461
Others come like waves. Rise, fall.

993
00:39:27,998 --> 00:39:30,398
Ripples in a wheat
field, blown by the wind.

994
00:39:30,467 --> 00:39:33,129
Do you ever get tired of it all?

995
00:39:33,170 --> 00:39:34,569
I get bored now and then.

996
00:39:34,604 --> 00:39:37,869
They keep making the same
stupid mistakes over and over.

997
00:39:37,908 --> 00:39:38,806
They.

998
00:39:39,876 --> 00:39:41,070
Then you see yourself

999
00:39:41,178 --> 00:39:43,373
as separate from the rest of humanity.

1000
00:39:44,414 --> 00:39:46,177
I didn't mean it that way.

1001
00:39:47,484 --> 00:39:48,610
But of course...

1002
00:39:49,786 --> 00:39:50,775
I am.

1003
00:39:52,189 --> 00:39:54,987
Are you comfortable
knowing that you have lived

1004
00:39:55,091 --> 00:39:58,925
while everyone you knew,
everyone you knew, John,

1005
00:39:58,995 --> 00:40:00,087
has died?

1006
00:40:00,130 --> 00:40:01,893
I've regretted losing people...

1007
00:40:01,932 --> 00:40:02,899
often.

1008
00:40:02,999 --> 00:40:05,365
Have you ever felt guilt about that,

1009
00:40:05,402 --> 00:40:07,632
something akin to survivor's guilt?

1010
00:40:07,704 --> 00:40:09,899
In the strict psychological sense?

1011
00:40:09,940 --> 00:40:11,271
I suppose I have.

1012
00:40:11,308 --> 00:40:12,400
Yeah.

1013
00:40:13,910 --> 00:40:16,003
But what can I do about it?

1014
00:40:18,014 --> 00:40:19,504
Indeed.

1015
00:40:20,550 --> 00:40:21,812
I'm sorry, ma'am.

1016
00:40:21,851 --> 00:40:23,011
Gentlemen, I'm-

1017
00:40:23,053 --> 00:40:24,987
I'm gonna keep the couch.

1018
00:40:25,021 --> 00:40:25,919
Thanks.

1019
00:40:26,022 --> 00:40:28,115
Ladies? Will? Oh, no...

1020
00:40:28,225 --> 00:40:30,819
You've got a heart condition.
Don't grump about it.

1021
00:40:30,860 --> 00:40:32,623
Hey, how about changing
the subject, Will?

1022
00:40:32,662 --> 00:40:34,425
Enough with the... with the dying.

1023
00:40:34,464 --> 00:40:38,161
But this is the flip
side of his coin, Harry.

1024
00:40:38,235 --> 00:40:40,925
I'm very curious to know his feelings.

1025
00:40:40,937 --> 00:40:43,437
Would you prefer I asked
him about his father?

1026
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:44,790
I thought you always started with

1027
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,000
"Tell me about your mother."

1028
00:40:46,010 --> 00:40:49,210
Yes, but prehistory was
strongly patriarchal.

1029
00:40:49,846 --> 00:40:52,906
Surely you remember your father.

1030
00:40:52,949 --> 00:40:55,975
I seem to remember a figure,

1031
00:40:56,052 --> 00:40:58,987
Perhaps an older brother,
a social father, maybe.

1032
00:40:59,055 --> 00:41:00,647
Well, no matter.

1033
00:41:00,690 --> 00:41:03,022
I can scarcely remember mine.

1034
00:41:04,527 --> 00:41:07,018
Do you feel a vacancy

1035
00:41:07,097 --> 00:41:09,088
in your life about that, John,

1036
00:41:09,132 --> 00:41:11,123
something you wish could be filled

1037
00:41:11,201 --> 00:41:14,034
by a face, a voice, an image?

1038
00:41:16,439 --> 00:41:17,906
Not at this late date.

1039
00:41:17,941 --> 00:41:20,239
There must be someone,
probably many,

1040
00:41:20,310 --> 00:41:21,971
that you valued intensely.

1041
00:41:22,012 --> 00:41:23,343
Loved.

1042
00:41:23,413 --> 00:41:26,905
You saw them age and die...

1043
00:41:26,950 --> 00:41:30,351
a friend, a colleague, a wife.

1044
00:41:30,420 --> 00:41:33,719
Certainly you've had wives and children?

1045
00:41:33,757 --> 00:41:35,122
I'd move on.

1046
00:41:35,158 --> 00:41:36,921
I had to move on.

1047
00:41:37,027 --> 00:41:39,655
Making him history's biggest bigamist.

1048
00:41:40,830 --> 00:41:43,458
Have you ever in your life thought

1049
00:41:43,533 --> 00:41:45,125
"It should have been me"?

1050
00:41:47,370 --> 00:41:48,428
Maybe.

1051
00:41:48,471 --> 00:41:49,938
Yeah, Art has told me

1052
00:41:49,973 --> 00:41:51,736
that some of your early fellows

1053
00:41:51,775 --> 00:41:54,437
feared you were stealing their lives.

1054
00:41:54,477 --> 00:41:57,139
Have you thought that perhaps you were?

1055
00:41:57,180 --> 00:41:58,579
Perhaps you are!

1056
00:41:58,648 --> 00:42:01,776
There have always been
legends of such a thing,

1057
00:42:01,818 --> 00:42:03,809
a creature not quite human

1058
00:42:03,887 --> 00:42:07,948
taking not the blood,
but the life force itself?

1059
00:42:07,991 --> 00:42:09,219
My God, Will.

1060
00:42:09,292 --> 00:42:11,692
Unconsciously, perhaps,

1061
00:42:11,795 --> 00:42:15,754
by some biological or psychic mechanism

1062
00:42:15,799 --> 00:42:17,733
that we can only guess at.

1063
00:42:17,801 --> 00:42:20,793
I'm not saying you would do
such a thing deliberately.

1064
00:42:20,837 --> 00:42:23,863
I'm not saying that you
would even know how to...

1065
00:42:23,907 --> 00:42:25,204
Would you?

1066
00:42:26,743 --> 00:42:29,644
But would such a thing be fair?

1067
00:42:29,713 --> 00:42:31,305
So you believe me now?

1068
00:42:31,348 --> 00:42:34,647
I'm only exploring what you have said.

1069
00:42:34,718 --> 00:42:38,620
Whether I believe it or
not is of no importance.

1070
00:42:38,655 --> 00:42:40,418
We will die.

1071
00:42:40,457 --> 00:42:42,152
You will live.

1072
00:42:42,225 --> 00:42:44,352
Will you come to my funeral, John?

1073
00:42:44,427 --> 00:42:45,621
Hey, Will...

1074
00:42:45,662 --> 00:42:46,822
You've gone too far.

1075
00:42:46,930 --> 00:42:49,558
John didn't ask to be what he is.

1076
00:42:49,632 --> 00:42:52,226
And we did not ask to hear about it.

1077
00:42:52,268 --> 00:42:53,735
But if it were true,

1078
00:42:53,837 --> 00:42:56,863
is there one among us
who would not feel envy,

1079
00:42:56,940 --> 00:42:59,374
even perhaps a touch of hatred?

1080
00:43:01,077 --> 00:43:03,011
You told us of yourself, John.

1081
00:43:03,079 --> 00:43:04,979
Can you imagine how we feel?

1082
00:43:05,014 --> 00:43:07,073
I never thought of that.

1083
00:43:07,117 --> 00:43:09,108
Since you may not die,

1084
00:43:09,185 --> 00:43:11,915
while we most assuredly will...

1085
00:43:11,988 --> 00:43:14,149
There must be a reason for that, no?

1086
00:43:14,190 --> 00:43:16,021
Perhaps you are an expert.

1087
00:43:17,427 --> 00:43:19,952
Uh, that's it, Mr. Oldman.
Have a good one.

1088
00:43:19,996 --> 00:43:21,691
Thank you. You too.

1089
00:43:25,502 --> 00:43:27,527
Or are you a vampire, John?

1090
00:43:28,638 --> 00:43:30,299
Even an unknowing one.

1091
00:43:31,408 --> 00:43:33,000
Do you stand alive and tall

1092
00:43:33,109 --> 00:43:35,202
in a graveyard that you helped to fill?

1093
00:43:35,245 --> 00:43:36,712
That's going too far.

1094
00:43:36,746 --> 00:43:39,647
Bored, perhaps lonely,
because your heart

1095
00:43:39,716 --> 00:43:41,684
cannot keep its treasures.

1096
00:43:41,718 --> 00:43:43,709
Is that what you're doing?

1097
00:43:45,121 --> 00:43:47,112
Have you led a wrongful life?

1098
00:43:48,224 --> 00:43:50,215
Well, then, perhaps

1099
00:43:51,327 --> 00:43:53,124
it is time to die.

1100
00:43:54,931 --> 00:43:56,125
Wait a minute, now.

1101
00:43:56,166 --> 00:43:58,134
Look, I don't know what John is doing,

1102
00:43:58,168 --> 00:44:00,568
But I sure as hell don't
like what you're doing.

1103
00:44:00,637 --> 00:44:03,003
Give me that gun or I'm
gonna break your goddamn arm.

1104
00:44:03,072 --> 00:44:06,337
You sound like our football coach, Dan.

1105
00:44:06,376 --> 00:44:08,310
What do you think, John?

1106
00:44:08,378 --> 00:44:10,278
A shot to the arm?

1107
00:44:10,313 --> 00:44:13,214
Perhaps we could watch it heal.

1108
00:44:13,283 --> 00:44:15,376
A bullet in the head...

1109
00:44:15,418 --> 00:44:17,511
What exactly will happen?

1110
00:44:23,526 --> 00:44:25,687
I have papers to correct.

1111
00:44:25,728 --> 00:44:28,424
As much as I dislike that job,

1112
00:44:28,498 --> 00:44:31,194
it'll be preferable to this.

1113
00:44:32,802 --> 00:44:34,827
I leave you with it.

1114
00:44:37,207 --> 00:44:39,437
Jesus Christ.

1115
00:44:39,509 --> 00:44:41,443
What the hell was that all about?

1116
00:44:41,511 --> 00:44:42,705
Where'd he get a gun?

1117
00:44:42,812 --> 00:44:44,336
He had you on the ropes, John.

1118
00:44:44,414 --> 00:44:45,938
Are you really so damn smart?

1119
00:44:46,015 --> 00:44:47,312
It's not like Will.

1120
00:44:49,219 --> 00:44:51,016
Mary passed away yesterday.

1121
00:44:53,523 --> 00:44:54,717
Who?

1122
00:44:54,824 --> 00:44:57,224
His wife.

1123
00:44:58,661 --> 00:45:00,424
She had, uh, pancreatic cancer.

1124
00:45:02,265 --> 00:45:03,289
Will!

1125
00:45:04,968 --> 00:45:06,595
I didn't know about Mary.

1126
00:45:06,669 --> 00:45:10,070
I'm sorry. I can see how
this might have hit you.

1127
00:45:10,106 --> 00:45:14,008
Please, permit me to
be infantile by myself.

1128
00:45:14,077 --> 00:45:16,375
Will, please.

1129
00:45:32,996 --> 00:45:34,793
What the hell were you thinking, Art?

1130
00:45:34,831 --> 00:45:36,628
Oh, come on. Something had to be done.

1131
00:45:36,699 --> 00:45:38,064
I have to say I agree.

1132
00:45:38,101 --> 00:45:39,398
And he's our friend.

1133
00:45:39,502 --> 00:45:41,697
Whatever else on Earth is going on,

1134
00:45:41,738 --> 00:45:42,796
He's our friend!

1135
00:45:42,839 --> 00:45:43,806
You sure about that?

1136
00:45:43,907 --> 00:45:45,397
Why are you being so hard on him?

1137
00:45:45,508 --> 00:45:48,170
One of my favorite
people has disappeared.

1138
00:45:48,211 --> 00:45:51,544
Can you get Alzheimer's at 35?

1139
00:45:51,614 --> 00:45:54,879
Maybe I'm trying to wake him up.

1140
00:45:54,918 --> 00:45:58,513
Maybe I'm too sad to cry.

1141
00:46:02,759 --> 00:46:05,728
What I said about myself hurt him.

1142
00:46:05,762 --> 00:46:08,094
He struck back expertly.

1143
00:46:08,164 --> 00:46:10,894
That stuff about stealing life forces?

1144
00:46:10,967 --> 00:46:13,697
I've always wondered about the reasons.

1145
00:46:20,076 --> 00:46:23,375
Well, we still have an
afternoon to kill, right?

1146
00:46:25,515 --> 00:46:27,278
Charades?

1147
00:46:29,485 --> 00:46:31,680
No. John?

1148
00:46:31,721 --> 00:46:34,383
I have a charade, and
it is just for you.

1149
00:46:34,424 --> 00:46:35,391
Sandy, come here.

1150
00:46:35,491 --> 00:46:37,083
Come on, come on, come on.

1151
00:46:37,126 --> 00:46:38,753
Okay, this one's for you.

1152
00:46:38,795 --> 00:46:40,695
Ready?

1153
00:46:51,741 --> 00:46:53,231
Ooh!

1154
00:46:53,309 --> 00:46:54,708
Unh.

1155
00:46:54,811 --> 00:46:56,369
My first wedding?

1156
00:46:56,412 --> 00:46:57,902
There you go.

1157
00:46:57,947 --> 00:46:59,414
There you go!

1158
00:46:59,449 --> 00:47:02,077
Very good, and I bet at least one of us

1159
00:47:02,151 --> 00:47:03,243
is your direct descendent.

1160
00:47:03,286 --> 00:47:05,345
And I didn't even send a Christmas card.

1161
00:47:05,388 --> 00:47:07,549
Christmas card? What
about a birthday card?

1162
00:47:07,590 --> 00:47:09,717
And don't even get me
started on the candles...

1163
00:47:09,759 --> 00:47:11,727
with the blowing and the

1164
00:47:11,761 --> 00:47:13,592
for years with the blowing.

1165
00:47:15,665 --> 00:47:17,599
Yeah, all right. I tried.

1166
00:47:17,667 --> 00:47:20,932
Well, uh, call me underdeveloped,

1167
00:47:20,970 --> 00:47:23,302
but I'd like to hear more.

1168
00:47:25,508 --> 00:47:26,839
Me too.

1169
00:47:26,876 --> 00:47:28,104
More.

1170
00:47:28,177 --> 00:47:30,509
You double-damn swear
this isn't some cockamamie

1171
00:47:30,580 --> 00:47:32,741
science fiction story or...

1172
00:47:32,782 --> 00:47:34,113
you're pulling on us?

1173
00:47:34,183 --> 00:47:36,583
Next question.

1174
00:47:36,619 --> 00:47:37,984
You-You-You realize

1175
00:47:38,021 --> 00:47:39,283
this is an invitation

1176
00:47:39,322 --> 00:47:41,483
to men in white suits with happy pills.

1177
00:47:41,524 --> 00:47:42,491
Think about it.

1178
00:47:42,525 --> 00:47:44,390
A mechanism allowing survival

1179
00:47:44,427 --> 00:47:45,724
for thousands of years?

1180
00:47:45,795 --> 00:47:47,990
Run out of room even faster.

1181
00:47:48,097 --> 00:47:50,327
Then we'd have to go to Mars as a colony

1182
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,231
as we expanded, as we'd have to.

1183
00:47:52,301 --> 00:47:54,132
I'd like that.

1184
00:47:54,203 --> 00:47:56,171
On a planet of another star.

1185
00:47:56,205 --> 00:47:58,002
I envy you.

1186
00:47:58,107 --> 00:48:00,405
Did you have a pet dinosaur?

1187
00:48:00,443 --> 00:48:02,741
They were a little bit before my time.

1188
00:48:02,779 --> 00:48:03,939
At least something is.

1189
00:48:04,047 --> 00:48:07,073
No doubt you could give us
a thousand details, John,

1190
00:48:07,150 --> 00:48:08,150
corroborating your story,

1191
00:48:08,184 --> 00:48:10,652
from the Magdalene to the Buddha to now.

1192
00:48:10,687 --> 00:48:11,779
Ten thousand,

1193
00:48:11,854 --> 00:48:13,446
and you could stay out of the books.

1194
00:48:13,489 --> 00:48:15,889
Oh, it's getting chilly.

1195
00:48:15,958 --> 00:48:18,153
Here, come over here. Join me.

1196
00:48:20,496 --> 00:48:24,159
That, uh, raises an
interesting question, John.

1197
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:25,667
Could there be others like you

1198
00:48:25,702 --> 00:48:27,892
who escaped the aging
process as you have?

1199
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:29,220
Representing something terrific

1200
00:48:29,230 --> 00:48:30,670
we don't even know about in biology.

1201
00:48:30,673 --> 00:48:31,893
We're learning all the time.

1202
00:48:31,910 --> 00:48:33,030
Yeah, but how would he know?

1203
00:48:33,100 --> 00:48:36,092
He doesn't wear an ID badge
saying "yabba dabba doo".

1204
00:48:36,212 --> 00:48:38,806
There was a man in the 1600s.

1205
00:48:38,881 --> 00:48:41,372
Where were you in 1292 A.D.?

1206
00:48:41,484 --> 00:48:44,078
Where were you a year ago on this date?

1207
00:48:46,723 --> 00:48:49,487
Anyway, it was the
1600s, and I met a man,

1208
00:48:49,525 --> 00:48:52,221
and I had a hunch that he was...

1209
00:48:52,295 --> 00:48:54,126
like me, so I told him.

1210
00:48:54,197 --> 00:48:57,963
Ah. See, you said this was a first.

1211
00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:58,932
I forgot.

1212
00:48:59,001 --> 00:49:00,798
A crack in your story, John?

1213
00:49:00,837 --> 00:49:02,828
A touch of senility.

1214
00:49:02,872 --> 00:49:04,772
Anyway, he said yes,

1215
00:49:04,841 --> 00:49:06,832
but from another time, another place.

1216
00:49:06,876 --> 00:49:08,343
We talked for two days.

1217
00:49:08,444 --> 00:49:10,378
It was all pretty convincing,

1218
00:49:10,446 --> 00:49:12,641
But we couldn't be sure.

1219
00:49:12,682 --> 00:49:14,946
We each confirmed what the other said,

1220
00:49:14,984 --> 00:49:17,214
but how do we know if the confirmation

1221
00:49:17,253 --> 00:49:19,016
was genuine or an echo?

1222
00:49:19,055 --> 00:49:20,750
I knew I was kosher,

1223
00:49:20,790 --> 00:49:24,692
but I thought, "maybe he's
playing a game on me."

1224
00:49:24,761 --> 00:49:28,060
You know, a scholar
of all we spoke about.

1225
00:49:28,164 --> 00:49:31,156
He said he was inclined
with the same reservation.

1226
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:32,360
Now, that's interesting.

1227
00:49:32,468 --> 00:49:34,595
Just as we can never be sure,

1228
00:49:34,670 --> 00:49:36,160
even if we wanted to.

1229
00:49:36,205 --> 00:49:37,672
I mean, if we were sure,

1230
00:49:37,774 --> 00:49:39,366
you couldn't be sure of that.

1231
00:49:39,475 --> 00:49:41,500
We parted, agreeing to keep in touch...

1232
00:49:41,577 --> 00:49:42,976
of course, we didn't...

1233
00:49:43,012 --> 00:49:45,480
and 200 years later I thought I saw him

1234
00:49:45,515 --> 00:49:47,745
in a train station in Brussels.

1235
00:49:47,784 --> 00:49:49,308
Lost him in the crowd.

1236
00:49:49,385 --> 00:49:51,478
Oh, what a shame.

1237
00:49:51,521 --> 00:49:53,318
I-I mean, if it were true.

1238
00:49:53,389 --> 00:49:55,084
Okay, here's one for you.

1239
00:49:55,124 --> 00:49:57,422
What do you do in your spare time?

1240
00:49:58,594 --> 00:49:59,686
Every 50 years or so,

1241
00:49:59,729 --> 00:50:01,594
when I wanna get away from the rush,

1242
00:50:01,631 --> 00:50:03,997
I go down to a primitive
tribe in New Guinea

1243
00:50:04,033 --> 00:50:06,399
where I'm worshipped as an immortal god,

1244
00:50:06,435 --> 00:50:08,801
and they have a huge statue of me.

1245
00:50:08,838 --> 00:50:09,998
It's a big party.

1246
00:50:10,039 --> 00:50:12,007
Yeah, I've got a lot of pictures of it,

1247
00:50:12,041 --> 00:50:13,906
but I've already packed
them up. I'm sorry.

1248
00:50:14,010 --> 00:50:17,707
I won't make the obvious nasty
crack about more unwashed cavemen.

1249
00:50:17,747 --> 00:50:19,044
Actually, bathing was the style

1250
00:50:19,115 --> 00:50:20,980
until the middle ages
when the church told us

1251
00:50:21,017 --> 00:50:23,850
it was sinful to wash away God's dirt,

1252
00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:25,046
so people were sewn

1253
00:50:25,121 --> 00:50:26,748
into their underwear in October

1254
00:50:26,823 --> 00:50:28,484
and they popped out in April.

1255
00:50:28,524 --> 00:50:30,219
You said you just happened.

1256
00:50:30,259 --> 00:50:32,090
I don't believe that.

1257
00:50:32,128 --> 00:50:33,857
If your story's true,

1258
00:50:33,930 --> 00:50:36,831
why did God allow you to happen?

1259
00:50:36,866 --> 00:50:39,767
That makes an interesting point.

1260
00:50:39,836 --> 00:50:41,428
Are you religious, John?

1261
00:50:41,470 --> 00:50:43,995
I don't follow a known religion. No.

1262
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,029
Ever.

1263
00:50:45,141 --> 00:50:47,371
Long time ago I did,

1264
00:50:47,443 --> 00:50:49,638
like most people.

1265
00:50:49,679 --> 00:50:51,476
Some just never get over it.

1266
00:50:51,547 --> 00:50:52,878
Do you believe in God?

1267
00:50:53,983 --> 00:50:55,746
As Laplace said,

1268
00:50:55,785 --> 00:50:58,413
"I have no need of that hypothesis."

1269
00:50:58,454 --> 00:50:59,944
He may be around, though.

1270
00:50:59,989 --> 00:51:02,549
He's everywhere. We just can't see him.

1271
00:51:02,592 --> 00:51:05,220
Pfft. If this was the best I could do,

1272
00:51:05,294 --> 00:51:06,761
I'd be hiding, too.

1273
00:51:06,796 --> 00:51:08,229
And creation...

1274
00:51:08,297 --> 00:51:10,629
It's here.
I'm not so sure it was created.

1275
00:51:10,700 --> 00:51:11,928
What then?

1276
00:51:12,001 --> 00:51:15,528
Maybe it's just accumulated,
fields affecting fields.

1277
00:51:15,605 --> 00:51:18,233
What about the source
of the field energies?

1278
00:51:18,307 --> 00:51:20,207
Wouldn't that imply a prime mover?

1279
00:51:20,243 --> 00:51:22,302
I'd wonder about the
source of the prime mover,

1280
00:51:22,411 --> 00:51:25,539
infinite regress, but that
doesn't imply anything to me.

1281
00:51:25,615 --> 00:51:27,310
Back to the mystery.

1282
00:51:27,416 --> 00:51:29,407
It's a very old question,

1283
00:51:29,452 --> 00:51:33,320
But there's no answer
except in religious terms.

1284
00:51:33,356 --> 00:51:36,018
If you have faith, it's answered.

1285
00:51:36,125 --> 00:51:39,526
Did you ever meet any person
from our religious history?

1286
00:51:39,562 --> 00:51:41,553
A biblical figure?

1287
00:51:41,631 --> 00:51:42,928
In a way.

1288
00:51:42,965 --> 00:51:44,626
Who?

1289
00:51:44,667 --> 00:51:46,134
We should skip this one.

1290
00:51:46,168 --> 00:51:47,863
No, no, no skipping. Come on.

1291
00:51:47,937 --> 00:51:49,097
Next question.

1292
00:51:49,138 --> 00:51:50,537
No, come on!

1293
00:51:51,941 --> 00:51:53,135
Come on, spit it out!

1294
00:51:53,242 --> 00:51:54,834
Good lord! You were one of them!

1295
00:51:54,877 --> 00:51:58,506
This is going in a direction
that I didn't expect.

1296
00:51:58,547 --> 00:52:01,641
I hoped it wouldn't.
We... call it a night.

1297
00:52:01,684 --> 00:52:04,847
Come on! You were someone
in religious history?

1298
00:52:04,887 --> 00:52:06,081
Yes.

1299
00:52:06,122 --> 00:52:07,612
In the Bible?

1300
00:52:07,690 --> 00:52:08,588
Yes.

1301
00:52:08,624 --> 00:52:09,682
Someone we know?

1302
00:52:09,725 --> 00:52:11,750
How could we not know
someone in the Bible?

1303
00:52:11,794 --> 00:52:13,227
I mean somebody important.

1304
00:52:13,296 --> 00:52:14,627
You may think you know him,

1305
00:52:14,697 --> 00:52:16,187
but it's mostly myth.

1306
00:52:16,232 --> 00:52:19,565
The entire Bible is
mostly myth and allegory

1307
00:52:19,602 --> 00:52:22,935
with maybe some basis
in historical events.

1308
00:52:23,005 --> 00:52:27,271
You were part of that history?

1309
00:52:27,310 --> 00:52:28,402
Yes.

1310
00:52:29,512 --> 00:52:30,706
Moses.

1311
00:52:30,813 --> 00:52:34,613
Moses was based on Misis, a Syrian myth,

1312
00:52:34,650 --> 00:52:36,481
and there are earlier versions.

1313
00:52:36,519 --> 00:52:38,248
All found floating on water,

1314
00:52:38,321 --> 00:52:40,846
the staff that changed to a snake,

1315
00:52:40,923 --> 00:52:43,391
waters that were parted so followers

1316
00:52:43,426 --> 00:52:44,950
could be led to freedom

1317
00:52:45,027 --> 00:52:46,426
and even receive laws

1318
00:52:46,529 --> 00:52:48,053
on stone or wooden tablets.

1319
00:52:48,130 --> 00:52:50,928
One of the apostles.

1320
00:52:51,033 --> 00:52:53,399
They weren't really apostles.

1321
00:52:53,436 --> 00:52:55,768
They didn't do any real teaching.

1322
00:52:55,838 --> 00:52:59,137
Peter the fisherman learned
a little more about fishing.

1323
00:52:59,175 --> 00:53:01,109
How do you know that?

1324
00:53:03,512 --> 00:53:06,504
The mythical overlay is so enormous...

1325
00:53:07,917 --> 00:53:09,908
and not good.

1326
00:53:09,986 --> 00:53:16,118
The truth is so, so simple.

1327
00:53:16,192 --> 00:53:19,889
The New Testament in 100
words or less: you ready?

1328
00:53:19,929 --> 00:53:21,487
I don't think I wanna hear this.

1329
00:53:21,530 --> 00:53:22,997
Harry, will you take me home?

1330
00:53:23,099 --> 00:53:24,896
No, not right now.
I do want to hear this.

1331
00:53:24,934 --> 00:53:27,300
Sit down, Edith.
You act like you believe him.

1332
00:53:27,336 --> 00:53:28,701
It's sacrilege.

1333
00:53:28,702 --> 00:53:29,862
How can it be sacrilege?

1334
00:53:29,906 --> 00:53:31,106
He hasn't said anything yet.

1335
00:53:31,107 --> 00:53:33,701
The new New Testament is sacrilege.

1336
00:53:33,743 --> 00:53:36,610
There are a dozen new New Testaments,

1337
00:53:36,645 --> 00:53:39,478
From Hebrew to Greek
to Latin to Tyndale,

1338
00:53:39,515 --> 00:53:41,312
all the way to King James,

1339
00:53:41,350 --> 00:53:42,612
all revisionist,

1340
00:53:42,651 --> 00:53:44,915
and all called revealed truth.

1341
00:53:44,954 --> 00:53:48,117
I mean a new New Testament in 100 words.

1342
00:53:48,157 --> 00:53:50,455
I can give you the ten
commandments in ten words:

1343
00:53:50,526 --> 00:53:52,016
Don't. Don't, don't, don't,

1344
00:53:52,061 --> 00:53:53,858
Don't, don't, don't,
don't, don't, don't.

1345
00:53:53,929 --> 00:53:55,419
Don't.

1346
00:53:55,531 --> 00:53:58,557
The commandments are just modern
updates of more ancient laws.

1347
00:53:58,634 --> 00:54:00,363
Hammurabi's code.

1348
00:54:00,436 --> 00:54:02,870
That's right, they
weren't the first, right?

1349
00:54:02,905 --> 00:54:05,840
Edith, I was raised on the Torah...

1350
00:54:05,875 --> 00:54:07,274
My wife, on the Koran.

1351
00:54:07,376 --> 00:54:08,968
My oldest son is an atheist.

1352
00:54:09,011 --> 00:54:10,808
My youngest is a Scientologist.

1353
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:12,575
My daughter is studying Hinduism.

1354
00:54:12,615 --> 00:54:16,881
I imagine that there is room there
for a holy war in my living room,

1355
00:54:16,919 --> 00:54:19,080
but we practice live and let live.

1356
00:54:20,423 --> 00:54:21,890
Why don't you sit down?

1357
00:54:28,998 --> 00:54:31,899
What is your preferred
version of the Bible?

1358
00:54:31,934 --> 00:54:33,333
The King James, of course.

1359
00:54:33,402 --> 00:54:35,870
It's the most modern, the
work of great scholars.

1360
00:54:35,905 --> 00:54:37,395
Modern is good.

1361
00:54:39,208 --> 00:54:41,403
All right, John,
hit us with the short form.

1362
00:54:43,446 --> 00:54:45,471
Guy met the Buddha, liked what he heard,

1363
00:54:45,514 --> 00:54:47,311
thought about it for a while -

1364
00:54:47,349 --> 00:54:49,112
say 500 years, while he returned

1365
00:54:49,151 --> 00:54:51,119
to the Mediterranean,

1366
00:54:51,153 --> 00:54:53,018
became an Etruscan.

1367
00:54:53,122 --> 00:54:54,783
Seeped into the Roman empire.

1368
00:54:54,824 --> 00:54:56,519
He didn't like what they became -

1369
00:54:56,559 --> 00:54:58,720
A giant killing machine.

1370
00:54:58,828 --> 00:55:00,455
He went to the Near East thinking,

1371
00:55:00,529 --> 00:55:03,726
"Why not pass the Buddha's
teachings on in a modern form."

1372
00:55:03,766 --> 00:55:05,961
So he tried.

1373
00:55:06,001 --> 00:55:08,162
One dissident against Rome?

1374
00:55:08,204 --> 00:55:09,296
Rome won.

1375
00:55:09,371 --> 00:55:10,702
The rest is history.

1376
00:55:10,773 --> 00:55:13,264
Well, sort of. Lot of
fairy tales mixed in.

1377
00:55:16,078 --> 00:55:18,012
I knew it.

1378
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,014
He's saying he was Christ.

1379
00:55:20,082 --> 00:55:21,879
Oh, no. That's the medal

1380
00:55:21,984 --> 00:55:24,282
they pinned on Jesus
to fulfill prophecy.

1381
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:25,480
The crucifixion.

1382
00:55:25,521 --> 00:55:28,513
He blocked the pain
as he had learned to do

1383
00:55:28,591 --> 00:55:29,888
in Tibet and India.

1384
00:55:29,925 --> 00:55:32,291
He also learned to
slow his body processes

1385
00:55:32,328 --> 00:55:34,922
down to the point where
they were undetectable.

1386
00:55:34,997 --> 00:55:36,362
They thought he was dead.

1387
00:55:36,398 --> 00:55:37,695
So his followers pulled him

1388
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:40,030
from the cross, placed him in a cave...

1389
00:55:40,102 --> 00:55:42,730
His body normalized as
he had trained it to.

1390
00:55:44,006 --> 00:55:46,440
He attempted to go away undetected,

1391
00:55:46,509 --> 00:55:48,943
but some devotees were standing watch.

1392
00:55:50,412 --> 00:55:52,812
Tried to explain.

1393
00:55:52,848 --> 00:55:55,214
They were ecstatic.

1394
00:55:55,317 --> 00:55:57,717
Thus, I was resurrected,

1395
00:55:57,820 --> 00:55:59,788
and I ascended to central Europe

1396
00:55:59,822 --> 00:56:01,687
to get away as far as possible.

1397
00:56:01,757 --> 00:56:04,225
You don't mean a word of this, John.

1398
00:56:04,260 --> 00:56:06,228
My God, why are you doing this?

1399
00:56:06,262 --> 00:56:07,786
Let me see your wrists.

1400
00:56:07,863 --> 00:56:09,262
I don't scar.

1401
00:56:09,298 --> 00:56:10,890
Besides, they tied me...

1402
00:56:10,966 --> 00:56:14,129
but nails and blood make
better religious art.

1403
00:56:14,170 --> 00:56:17,298
All the speculations about Jesus.

1404
00:56:17,373 --> 00:56:19,068
He was black, he was Asian,

1405
00:56:19,108 --> 00:56:21,576
he was a blue-eyed Aryan
with a golden beard

1406
00:56:21,610 --> 00:56:24,010
and hair straight out
of Vidal Sassoon's,

1407
00:56:24,079 --> 00:56:27,242
He was a benevolent alien,
he never existed at all.

1408
00:56:27,283 --> 00:56:29,376
Now he's a caveman.

1409
00:56:29,418 --> 00:56:32,512
The Christ figure goes all
the way back to Krishna -

1410
00:56:32,588 --> 00:56:33,577
Hercules, of course.

1411
00:56:33,622 --> 00:56:34,589
Hercules?

1412
00:56:34,623 --> 00:56:37,319
Born of a virgin, Alcmene.

1413
00:56:37,393 --> 00:56:39,987
A god for a father, Zeus.

1414
00:56:40,029 --> 00:56:42,589
The only begotten.

1415
00:56:42,631 --> 00:56:45,191
The savior
The Greek? Soter.

1416
00:56:45,301 --> 00:56:47,394
The good shepherd, the prince of peace,

1417
00:56:47,436 --> 00:56:49,961
bringing gentle persuasion
and divine wisdom.

1418
00:56:50,005 --> 00:56:52,803
He died, joined his father on Olympus

1419
00:56:52,841 --> 00:56:55,537
a thousand years before Gethsemane.

1420
00:56:55,611 --> 00:56:59,479
How can you compare pagan
mythology to the true word?

1421
00:56:59,515 --> 00:57:01,983
Pretty damn closely, I'd say.

1422
00:57:02,051 --> 00:57:04,451
The early Christian leaders,

1423
00:57:04,486 --> 00:57:06,386
they threw away Hebrew manuscripts

1424
00:57:06,455 --> 00:57:09,356
and borrowed from pagan
sources all over the place.

1425
00:57:09,391 --> 00:57:11,951
Do you realize how...

1426
00:57:12,061 --> 00:57:14,256
inconsiderately you're
treating my feelings?

1427
00:57:14,296 --> 00:57:17,788
About as inconsiderately
as we're treating John's.

1428
00:57:17,866 --> 00:57:20,061
Well, he doesn't
believe what he's saying!

1429
00:57:20,102 --> 00:57:22,662
Do you believe literally
everything in the Bible, Edith?

1430
00:57:22,705 --> 00:57:23,763
Yes!

1431
00:57:23,872 --> 00:57:25,169
Before you say it,

1432
00:57:25,274 --> 00:57:27,902
I know it's undergone a lot of changes,

1433
00:57:27,977 --> 00:57:30,411
But God has spoken through man

1434
00:57:30,479 --> 00:57:32,413
to make his word clearer.

1435
00:57:32,481 --> 00:57:34,881
He couldn't get it right the first time?

1436
00:57:34,917 --> 00:57:38,114
We're imperfect! He had to
work to make us understand.

1437
00:57:38,187 --> 00:57:41,281
He couldn't get us right
the first time, Edith?

1438
00:57:41,323 --> 00:57:44,121
Taken alone, the
philosophical teachings of Jesus

1439
00:57:44,193 --> 00:57:46,218
are Buddhism with a Hebrew accent.

1440
00:57:46,295 --> 00:57:50,061
Kindness, tolerance, brotherhood, love,

1441
00:57:50,099 --> 00:57:51,726
a ruthless realism acknowledging

1442
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:55,031
that life is as it is here
on Earth, here and now.

1443
00:57:55,104 --> 00:57:58,164
The kingdom of God, meaning goodness,

1444
00:57:58,207 --> 00:58:01,199
is right here, where it should be.

1445
00:58:01,243 --> 00:58:03,268
"I am what I am becoming."

1446
00:58:03,345 --> 00:58:04,903
That's what the Buddha brought in.

1447
00:58:04,947 --> 00:58:06,278
And that's what I taught.

1448
00:58:06,348 --> 00:58:09,317
But a talking snake
make a lady eat an apple,

1449
00:58:09,351 --> 00:58:10,443
So we're screwed.

1450
00:58:10,486 --> 00:58:11,976
Heaven and hell were peddled

1451
00:58:12,054 --> 00:58:15,285
so priests could rule
through seduction and terror,

1452
00:58:15,357 --> 00:58:18,554
save our souls that we never
lost in the first place.

1453
00:58:18,594 --> 00:58:20,152
I threw a clean pass...

1454
00:58:20,262 --> 00:58:22,321
they ran it out of the ballpark.

1455
00:58:22,364 --> 00:58:25,060
This is blasphemy.

1456
00:58:25,100 --> 00:58:27,898
It's horrible! Who else were you?

1457
00:58:27,970 --> 00:58:30,234
Solomon, Elvis, Jack the ripper?

1458
00:58:30,272 --> 00:58:32,331
It's been said that Buddha and Jesus

1459
00:58:32,374 --> 00:58:34,433
would laugh or cry if they'd known

1460
00:58:34,476 --> 00:58:35,875
what was done in their name.

1461
00:58:35,911 --> 00:58:37,708
And if there is a creator,

1462
00:58:37,780 --> 00:58:40,578
he'd probably feel the same way.

1463
00:58:40,616 --> 00:58:43,176
I see ceremony, ritual, processions,

1464
00:58:43,218 --> 00:58:45,880
genuflecting, moaning, intoning,

1465
00:58:45,921 --> 00:58:48,583
venerating cookies and wine,

1466
00:58:48,624 --> 00:58:50,319
and I think...

1467
00:58:50,392 --> 00:58:51,757
It's not what I had in mind.

1468
00:58:51,794 --> 00:58:53,091
But that's Vatican flapdoodle.

1469
00:58:53,128 --> 00:58:55,596
It doesn't have a thing to do with God.

1470
00:58:55,631 --> 00:58:58,759
As you said, John,
everywhere, religions...

1471
00:58:58,801 --> 00:59:01,861
from exalting life to
purging joy as a sin.

1472
00:59:01,937 --> 00:59:04,531
Rome does it as grand opera.

1473
00:59:05,841 --> 00:59:07,570
A simple path to goodness needs

1474
00:59:07,643 --> 00:59:09,577
a supernatural roadmap.

1475
00:59:09,645 --> 00:59:11,670
Supernatural...

1476
00:59:11,747 --> 00:59:14,341
A stupid word, I mean...

1477
00:59:14,450 --> 00:59:16,315
Anything that happens,
happens within nature,

1478
00:59:16,352 --> 00:59:18,445
whether we believe in it or not.

1479
00:59:18,487 --> 00:59:20,546
Like a 14,000-year-old caveman.

1480
00:59:29,398 --> 00:59:31,525
I-I-I drove for a while,

1481
00:59:31,567 --> 00:59:33,694
and then I sat for a while.

1482
00:59:33,769 --> 00:59:35,066
I'm so ashamed.

1483
00:59:35,170 --> 00:59:36,831
And I'm freezing.

1484
00:59:36,872 --> 00:59:38,066
Well, come inside.

1485
00:59:38,173 --> 00:59:40,266
I still don't believe you, of course.

1486
00:59:40,309 --> 00:59:41,276
You need help.

1487
00:59:41,377 --> 00:59:42,309
Everybody needs help.

1488
00:59:42,378 --> 00:59:44,471
Yes, well, some more than others.

1489
00:59:58,494 --> 01:00:00,587
From the Buddha to the cross,

1490
01:00:00,629 --> 01:00:05,328
I have always imagined
both as entirely mythic -

1491
01:00:05,401 --> 01:00:07,699
but I would like to hear more.

1492
01:00:07,803 --> 01:00:10,431
May I lie on the couch for a moment?

1493
01:00:10,506 --> 01:00:13,100
I'm not as young as I used to be.

1494
01:00:15,811 --> 01:00:16,800
Ohh!

1495
01:00:19,014 --> 01:00:23,007
So, you were Jesus.

1496
01:00:23,051 --> 01:00:26,145
Well, perhaps somebody had to
be, for better or for worse.

1497
01:00:26,221 --> 01:00:27,848
The jury is still out.

1498
01:00:27,923 --> 01:00:30,915
When did you begin to
believe you were Jesus?

1499
01:00:30,959 --> 01:00:34,053
When did you begin to believe
you were a psychiatrist?

1500
01:00:34,129 --> 01:00:37,121
Since I graduated Harvard medical school

1501
01:00:37,232 --> 01:00:39,894
and finished my residency,
I've had that feeling.

1502
01:00:39,935 --> 01:00:42,165
Oh, I sometimes dream about it.

1503
01:00:42,237 --> 01:00:44,364
Have you acted upon this belief?

1504
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:46,806
I had a private practice for a while,

1505
01:00:46,842 --> 01:00:48,309
and then I taught.

1506
01:00:48,343 --> 01:00:49,742
Nothing unusual -

1507
01:00:49,778 --> 01:00:53,043
oh, until one day, I met a caveman

1508
01:00:53,081 --> 01:00:55,606
who thought he was Jesus.

1509
01:00:55,651 --> 01:00:58,085
Do you find that unusual?

1510
01:00:58,153 --> 01:01:00,587
Very. I would stake my reputation

1511
01:01:00,656 --> 01:01:02,886
he is as sane as I am,

1512
01:01:02,991 --> 01:01:05,892
so why does he persist in such a story?

1513
01:01:05,928 --> 01:01:08,055
There must be a reason, though.

1514
01:01:08,096 --> 01:01:09,961
Unless I imagined it all?

1515
01:01:09,998 --> 01:01:11,192
Is that possible?

1516
01:01:11,300 --> 01:01:13,097
I think you're as sane as he is.

1517
01:01:13,135 --> 01:01:14,830
Oh, God, I...

1518
01:01:14,903 --> 01:01:16,530
No.

1519
01:01:18,106 --> 01:01:21,041
Did you ever find it
prudent to worship yourself

1520
01:01:21,109 --> 01:01:22,838
rather than be thought a heretic?

1521
01:01:22,911 --> 01:01:24,037
That would be something.

1522
01:01:24,112 --> 01:01:26,637
Other times, Christianity
was considered heresy.

1523
01:01:26,715 --> 01:01:28,410
I had to pretend other faiths.

1524
01:01:28,450 --> 01:01:32,511
And what does Jesus have
to say to those present

1525
01:01:32,554 --> 01:01:34,920
who find it difficult to believe in him?

1526
01:01:34,957 --> 01:01:37,551
Believe in what he tried to teach,

1527
01:01:37,626 --> 01:01:39,526
without rigmarole.

1528
01:01:39,561 --> 01:01:42,223
Piety is not what the
lessons bring to people.

1529
01:01:42,264 --> 01:01:44,926
It's the mistake they
bring to the lessons.

1530
01:01:52,341 --> 01:01:55,071
Well, it's getting to be night.

1531
01:01:56,578 --> 01:01:58,739
I still have stuff to carry

1532
01:01:58,780 --> 01:02:01,044
and a long drive.

1533
01:02:01,083 --> 01:02:02,573
I'll help.

1534
01:02:02,618 --> 01:02:06,213
John, do you have
a destination in mind?

1535
01:02:07,589 --> 01:02:08,954
Never mind.

1536
01:02:08,991 --> 01:02:10,390
I won't ask.

1537
01:02:11,426 --> 01:02:12,415
Thank you.

1538
01:02:19,801 --> 01:02:22,599
Anyone mentally ill can imagine

1539
01:02:22,638 --> 01:02:25,630
a fantastic background,
even an entire life,

1540
01:02:25,707 --> 01:02:27,902
and sincerely believe it.

1541
01:02:28,010 --> 01:02:30,535
The man who thinks he is Napoleon

1542
01:02:30,612 --> 01:02:32,409
does believe it.

1543
01:02:32,514 --> 01:02:35,381
His true identity has taken a backseat

1544
01:02:35,417 --> 01:02:38,318
to his delusion and the need for it.

1545
01:02:38,353 --> 01:02:40,321
If that's the case with John,

1546
01:02:40,355 --> 01:02:42,323
there is a grave disorder.

1547
01:02:42,357 --> 01:02:44,723
Organized brilliantly.

1548
01:02:44,826 --> 01:02:46,817
He's got an answer for everything.

1549
01:02:46,929 --> 01:02:49,523
It might involve
rejection of his father,

1550
01:02:49,565 --> 01:02:51,192
of his entire early past,

1551
01:02:51,233 --> 01:02:52,825
replaced by this fantasy.

1552
01:02:52,868 --> 01:02:54,961
He says he can't remember his father.

1553
01:02:55,037 --> 01:02:55,935
Precisely why?

1554
01:02:56,038 --> 01:02:57,562
You said he was sane.

1555
01:02:57,639 --> 01:02:58,867
Did I?

1556
01:03:00,342 --> 01:03:02,708
Do you think that perhaps our caveman

1557
01:03:02,778 --> 01:03:04,507
has a monkey on his back?

1558
01:03:04,580 --> 01:03:06,070
Drugs?

1559
01:03:06,181 --> 01:03:07,580
No, no, no, no.

1560
01:03:07,616 --> 01:03:10,050
I've done a lot of consulting
work with narcotics.

1561
01:03:10,085 --> 01:03:12,144
I've seen people tripping, strung out...

1562
01:03:12,187 --> 01:03:14,246
Whatever's up with John, it isn't that.

1563
01:03:14,289 --> 01:03:16,120
I've looked for signs - none.

1564
01:03:16,191 --> 01:03:17,920
Could cavemen really talk?

1565
01:03:17,993 --> 01:03:20,393
We think that language
came into existence

1566
01:03:20,429 --> 01:03:21,623
60,000 years ago.

1567
01:03:21,697 --> 01:03:23,688
The structure of stone age culture

1568
01:03:23,732 --> 01:03:25,992
is evidence of the
ability to communicate...

1569
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:27,300
verbally.

1570
01:03:29,137 --> 01:03:31,298
Oh, shut up.

1571
01:03:40,449 --> 01:03:42,644
Maybe it'd be easier if I were.

1572
01:03:42,718 --> 01:03:43,810
Crazy?

1573
01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:46,610
No.

1574
01:03:59,835 --> 01:04:02,463
That is fascinating, isn't it,

1575
01:04:02,504 --> 01:04:05,598
a brave attempt to teach
Buddhism in the west.

1576
01:04:05,674 --> 01:04:07,335
It's no wonder he failed.

1577
01:04:07,376 --> 01:04:08,968
We're not ready for it.

1578
01:04:09,077 --> 01:04:11,477
You're talking
as if you believed him.

1579
01:04:11,513 --> 01:04:13,640
Well, it is possible, isn't it?

1580
01:04:13,682 --> 01:04:15,650
I mean, anything is possible.

1581
01:04:15,684 --> 01:04:17,879
Look, we have two simple choices.

1582
01:04:17,919 --> 01:04:20,080
We can get all bent out of shape

1583
01:04:20,122 --> 01:04:22,488
intellectualizing or
bench-pressing logic,

1584
01:04:22,524 --> 01:04:25,118
or we can simply relax and enjoy it.

1585
01:04:25,193 --> 01:04:26,888
I can listen critically,

1586
01:04:26,995 --> 01:04:30,328
but I don't have to make
up my mind about anything.

1587
01:04:30,399 --> 01:04:31,798
But you think you do?

1588
01:04:31,833 --> 01:04:34,529
Well, unfortunately, there's
no authorities on prehistory,

1589
01:04:34,603 --> 01:04:36,298
so we couldn't stop him there.

1590
01:04:36,405 --> 01:04:38,168
There are experts on the Bible.

1591
01:04:38,206 --> 01:04:39,730
Dream on.

1592
01:04:39,808 --> 01:04:42,106
Yeah, thus the lost years of Jesus.

1593
01:04:42,144 --> 01:04:44,806
He didn't exist until John put on a hat.

1594
01:04:44,846 --> 01:04:48,873
I don't believe in angels and the
Nativity and the star in the east,

1595
01:04:48,917 --> 01:04:52,011
but there are stories about
the childhood of Jesus.

1596
01:04:52,054 --> 01:04:54,420
History hates a vacuum.

1597
01:04:54,456 --> 01:04:57,016
Improvisation, some of it very sincere,

1598
01:04:57,059 --> 01:04:58,117
fills the gaps.

1599
01:04:58,226 --> 01:04:59,523
It would have been easy

1600
01:04:59,561 --> 01:05:02,359
to falsify a past back then.

1601
01:05:02,464 --> 01:05:05,797
A few words, credulity...
time would do the rest.

1602
01:05:05,867 --> 01:05:07,892
Now you're talking as
if you believed him.

1603
01:05:07,969 --> 01:05:10,369
Well, look at the
popular myths surrounding

1604
01:05:10,405 --> 01:05:12,805
the Kennedy assassination
in a few short years.

1605
01:05:12,874 --> 01:05:15,843
You had, uh, conspiracy, mafia, CIA.

1606
01:05:15,877 --> 01:05:18,778
That's a mystique that'll never go away.

1607
01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:22,680
It's always been a small step
from a fallen leader to a god.

1608
01:05:22,718 --> 01:05:25,516
I don't think anybody
will deify Kennedy.

1609
01:05:25,587 --> 01:05:27,521
We're more sophisticated than that.

1610
01:05:27,589 --> 01:05:29,056
We are?

1611
01:05:29,091 --> 01:05:30,683
We are.

1612
01:05:34,296 --> 01:05:36,526
Well, you're finally fulfilling

1613
01:05:36,598 --> 01:05:38,828
one prophecy about the millennium, John.

1614
01:05:38,900 --> 01:05:40,765
What's that?

1615
01:05:40,802 --> 01:05:42,633
Here you are again.

1616
01:05:52,247 --> 01:05:54,215
You like the fire, John.

1617
01:05:54,249 --> 01:05:57,741
Everywhere I've lived,
I've had a fireplace.

1618
01:05:57,819 --> 01:06:00,253
Childhood fixation, I guess.

1619
01:06:01,857 --> 01:06:03,882
Helps me to feel secure.

1620
01:06:05,293 --> 01:06:07,352
There are predators out there.

1621
01:06:09,798 --> 01:06:11,595
One thing I didn't pack...

1622
01:06:11,666 --> 01:06:13,463
I thought I might need it.

1623
01:06:20,675 --> 01:06:23,974
Wouldn't Sacre du printemps
be more appropriate?

1624
01:06:24,012 --> 01:06:25,070
What?

1625
01:06:26,681 --> 01:06:28,706
You've got...

1626
01:06:28,784 --> 01:06:31,947
four men of science
completely baffled, my friend.

1627
01:06:31,987 --> 01:06:34,478
We-We don't know what to make of you.

1628
01:06:34,523 --> 01:06:37,287
Did you know Voltaire
was the first to suggest

1629
01:06:37,325 --> 01:06:40,761
that the universe was created
by a gigantic explosion?

1630
01:06:40,796 --> 01:06:43,026
I think Paul would agree.

1631
01:06:43,098 --> 01:06:45,498
And then Goethe was the first to suggest

1632
01:06:45,534 --> 01:06:49,436
that spiral nebulae were
swirling masses of stars.

1633
01:06:49,504 --> 01:06:51,597
We now call them galaxies.

1634
01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:54,302
It's kind of funny how
often new concepts of science

1635
01:06:54,409 --> 01:06:57,276
find their first tentative
forms of expression in the arts.

1636
01:06:57,312 --> 01:07:01,339
So did Beethoven do physics on the side?

1637
01:07:01,383 --> 01:07:05,479
He spent most of his
time lying on the floor

1638
01:07:05,554 --> 01:07:07,146
in front of his legless piano

1639
01:07:07,255 --> 01:07:09,951
surrounded by orange
peels and apple cores.

1640
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,958
Now we're on the floor
listening to Beethoven.

1641
01:07:16,198 --> 01:07:17,688
Full circle.

1642
01:07:17,766 --> 01:07:20,064
Did you have, um...

1643
01:07:21,169 --> 01:07:22,864
any religious beliefs,

1644
01:07:22,904 --> 01:07:25,134
or did you give it much thought?

1645
01:07:25,173 --> 01:07:27,403
You can't get there with thought.

1646
01:07:27,475 --> 01:07:29,067
You have faith?

1647
01:07:29,110 --> 01:07:30,668
In a lot of things.

1648
01:07:30,779 --> 01:07:33,805
Do you have faith in
the future of the race?

1649
01:07:33,882 --> 01:07:35,782
I've seen species come and go.

1650
01:07:35,817 --> 01:07:37,876
Depends on their balance
with the environment.

1651
01:07:39,588 --> 01:07:41,283
We've made a mess of it.

1652
01:07:41,323 --> 01:07:42,984
There's still time,

1653
01:07:43,024 --> 01:07:44,616
if we use it well.

1654
01:07:44,693 --> 01:07:47,389
Christianity has been a worldwide belief

1655
01:07:47,429 --> 01:07:49,090
for 2,000 years.

1656
01:07:49,130 --> 01:07:51,325
How long did the Egyptians worship Isis

1657
01:07:51,399 --> 01:07:52,923
or the Sumerians Ishtar?

1658
01:07:53,001 --> 01:07:55,629
In India, sacred cows wandered freely

1659
01:07:55,704 --> 01:07:57,433
as reincarnated souls.

1660
01:07:57,505 --> 01:07:59,166
In a thousand years,
they'll be barbecued

1661
01:07:59,207 --> 01:08:00,799
and their souls will be in squirrels.

1662
01:08:00,842 --> 01:08:02,173
You weren't Jesus!

1663
01:08:04,246 --> 01:08:05,646
Oh, Edith.

1664
01:08:08,250 --> 01:08:10,980
- If it rains...
- It won't.

1665
01:08:11,052 --> 01:08:12,349
How do you know that?

1666
01:08:12,387 --> 01:08:13,752
I don't smell it.

1667
01:08:17,192 --> 01:08:18,159
Were you...

1668
01:08:19,461 --> 01:08:21,691
I guess... a medicine man?

1669
01:08:21,763 --> 01:08:23,890
I was a shaman a few times.

1670
01:08:23,965 --> 01:08:27,298
I revealed some truths
to eat a little better.

1671
01:08:27,369 --> 01:08:30,361
You think that's all
religion is about...

1672
01:08:30,405 --> 01:08:32,896
selling hope and survival?

1673
01:08:32,974 --> 01:08:35,499
The Old Testament sells fear and guilt.

1674
01:08:35,577 --> 01:08:38,045
The New Testament is
a good code of ethics,

1675
01:08:38,079 --> 01:08:40,513
put into my mouth by
poets and philosophers

1676
01:08:40,582 --> 01:08:42,641
that are much smarter than I am.

1677
01:08:42,684 --> 01:08:44,709
The message is never practiced.

1678
01:08:45,887 --> 01:08:47,514
Fairy tales build churches.

1679
01:08:48,590 --> 01:08:50,717
What about the name "Jesus"?

1680
01:08:50,792 --> 01:08:52,885
Did you pull that out of a hat?

1681
01:08:52,928 --> 01:08:55,260
I called myself John.

1682
01:08:55,297 --> 01:08:57,527
I almost always do.

1683
01:08:57,599 --> 01:08:59,590
As tales of the resurrection spread,

1684
01:08:59,634 --> 01:09:02,364
the name was confused
with the Hebrew "Yochanan,"

1685
01:09:02,437 --> 01:09:04,200
Meaning "God is gracious."

1686
01:09:04,239 --> 01:09:05,959
My stay on Earth was seen

1687
01:09:06,041 --> 01:09:09,241
as divine proof of immortality.

1688
01:09:09,244 --> 01:09:13,044
That led to "God is salvation"

1689
01:09:13,181 --> 01:09:14,648
or Hebrew "Yahshua,"

1690
01:09:14,883 --> 01:09:18,046
which in translation
became my proper name,

1691
01:09:18,086 --> 01:09:20,680
changing to late Greek, "Iesous,"

1692
01:09:20,755 --> 01:09:23,246
then to late Latin, "lesus,"

1693
01:09:23,291 --> 01:09:25,851
and finally medieval Latin, "Jesus,"

1694
01:09:25,961 --> 01:09:28,896
and it was a wonder
to watch it all happen.

1695
01:09:28,964 --> 01:09:32,024
Then you didn't claim
to be the son of God?

1696
01:09:32,067 --> 01:09:35,093
Began as a schoolhouse
and ended as a temple.

1697
01:09:35,170 --> 01:09:38,731
I said I had a master that
was greater than myself.

1698
01:09:38,773 --> 01:09:40,741
I never said he was my father.

1699
01:09:40,775 --> 01:09:42,675
I wanted to teach what I learned.

1700
01:09:42,777 --> 01:09:44,768
I never claimed to be king of the Jews,

1701
01:09:44,879 --> 01:09:47,973
I never walked on water,
I never raised the dead.

1702
01:09:48,016 --> 01:09:51,315
I never spoke of divine
except in the sense

1703
01:09:51,386 --> 01:09:53,479
of human goodness on Earth.

1704
01:09:57,025 --> 01:10:00,620
No wise men came from the
east to worship at a manger.

1705
01:10:00,662 --> 01:10:02,721
I did do a little healing

1706
01:10:02,797 --> 01:10:04,628
with some eastern medicine I'd learned.

1707
01:10:07,435 --> 01:10:08,527
That's it.

1708
01:10:12,340 --> 01:10:14,205
The three wise men began as a myth

1709
01:10:14,242 --> 01:10:16,107
about the birth of the Buddha.

1710
01:10:20,849 --> 01:10:24,808
John, I should be home,
uh, kissing my wife.

1711
01:10:27,022 --> 01:10:29,183
We're all here, trapped by your story...

1712
01:10:30,658 --> 01:10:36,426
hoping for a...
revolution? I don't know.

1713
01:10:39,768 --> 01:10:41,702
Are there any, uh...

1714
01:10:41,736 --> 01:10:43,670
more revelations for us?

1715
01:10:50,145 --> 01:10:52,045
It's just like old times.

1716
01:10:58,686 --> 01:11:00,654
You weren't Jesus.

1717
01:11:03,491 --> 01:11:05,789
Quote the sermon on the mount.

1718
01:11:05,827 --> 01:11:07,089
Which one?

1719
01:11:07,128 --> 01:11:10,325
Darby, King James,
new American standard?

1720
01:11:10,398 --> 01:11:12,161
Do you know them all?

1721
01:11:12,233 --> 01:11:15,396
No one knows the one, not even me.

1722
01:11:15,437 --> 01:11:16,699
I...

1723
01:11:16,805 --> 01:11:19,069
I did some teaching on a hill one day.

1724
01:11:19,107 --> 01:11:21,132
Not that many people stayed.

1725
01:11:21,176 --> 01:11:22,234
But you...

1726
01:11:22,310 --> 01:11:24,301
Biblical Jesus said,

1727
01:11:24,345 --> 01:11:26,779
"Who do you think I am?"

1728
01:11:26,815 --> 01:11:29,215
He gave them a choice.

1729
01:11:30,752 --> 01:11:32,117
I'm giving you one.

1730
01:11:35,123 --> 01:11:36,454
Were you?

1731
01:11:38,460 --> 01:11:41,122
If I said no, could you ever be sure?

1732
01:11:58,279 --> 01:12:00,213
Turn that off.

1733
01:12:00,248 --> 01:12:01,112
Please.

1734
01:12:04,219 --> 01:12:06,210
This has gone far enough.

1735
01:12:06,287 --> 01:12:08,187
It's gone much too far.

1736
01:12:08,289 --> 01:12:10,780
These people are very upset.

1737
01:12:10,825 --> 01:12:13,293
I don't believe you're mad,

1738
01:12:13,394 --> 01:12:15,624
But what you're saying is not true.

1739
01:12:16,798 --> 01:12:19,596
That leaves only one explanation.

1740
01:12:20,802 --> 01:12:22,861
The time has come when you must admit

1741
01:12:22,904 --> 01:12:24,098
this is a hoax...

1742
01:12:25,807 --> 01:12:27,001
A lie.

1743
01:12:27,108 --> 01:12:30,669
Isn't that true, John?

1744
01:12:30,745 --> 01:12:33,509
If you don't drop this now,
if you can,

1745
01:12:33,548 --> 01:12:35,015
I'll be convinced

1746
01:12:35,116 --> 01:12:38,017
that you need a great deal of attention.

1747
01:12:38,052 --> 01:12:40,987
I can have you committed
for observation.

1748
01:12:41,022 --> 01:12:42,649
You know that.

1749
01:12:42,690 --> 01:12:44,590
I ask you now...

1750
01:12:44,626 --> 01:12:46,457
I demand it...

1751
01:12:46,528 --> 01:12:49,554
that you tell these people the truth.

1752
01:12:49,631 --> 01:12:52,862
Give them closure.

1753
01:12:52,934 --> 01:12:56,131
It's time, John.

1754
01:12:56,171 --> 01:12:57,331
Please.

1755
01:13:10,985 --> 01:13:13,715
End of the line. Everybody off.

1756
01:13:16,991 --> 01:13:18,891
What?!

1757
01:13:18,993 --> 01:13:20,793
It was a story.

1758
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:23,100
It was all a story.

1759
01:13:24,299 --> 01:13:25,249
Good God!

1760
01:13:27,001 --> 01:13:28,764
Another fairy tale?

1761
01:13:28,803 --> 01:13:30,498
All of it? But what...?

1762
01:13:30,538 --> 01:13:31,898
What in the name of heaven?

1763
01:13:31,906 --> 01:13:34,196
John, you had us wondering
whether you were sane or not,

1764
01:13:34,242 --> 01:13:35,800
and it's just a story!

1765
01:13:35,843 --> 01:13:39,142
Where'd you come off with such
a half-baked, asinine idea?

1766
01:13:39,214 --> 01:13:40,943
At least you're relieved I'm not a nut.

1767
01:13:41,015 --> 01:13:42,607
I'd prefer you were!

1768
01:13:42,650 --> 01:13:44,242
You gave me the idea.

1769
01:13:44,319 --> 01:13:45,650
All of you.

1770
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:46,948
Come again?

1771
01:13:47,021 --> 01:13:48,579
Edith saw my fake Van Gogh.

1772
01:13:48,623 --> 01:13:50,022
You could have just told me.

1773
01:13:50,058 --> 01:13:51,650
You commented that I never age.

1774
01:13:51,726 --> 01:13:53,250
You gave me the book on early man.

1775
01:13:53,328 --> 01:13:54,818
Dan, you spotted the burin

1776
01:13:54,929 --> 01:13:56,556
and you said, "if stones could speak."

1777
01:13:56,631 --> 01:13:58,155
I knew it.

1778
01:13:58,233 --> 01:14:00,633
I got the notion, I ran it past you

1779
01:14:00,668 --> 01:14:03,193
to check your reactions,
and I took it too far.

1780
01:14:03,271 --> 01:14:04,568
Too far?

1781
01:14:04,606 --> 01:14:06,073
Check my reaction.

1782
01:14:06,107 --> 01:14:08,667
You asked if I was a figure
from religious history,

1783
01:14:08,710 --> 01:14:10,177
if there were others like me,

1784
01:14:10,211 --> 01:14:11,610
if I'd created future identities.

1785
01:14:11,679 --> 01:14:14,807
We were chasing our
tails around the maypole,

1786
01:14:14,882 --> 01:14:17,976
enjoying the mystery,
the analytical stretch.

1787
01:14:18,019 --> 01:14:19,919
You were playing my game!

1788
01:14:19,988 --> 01:14:21,478
I was playing yours.

1789
01:14:21,522 --> 01:14:24,116
Oh, man, you know,
you had us going, right?

1790
01:14:24,192 --> 01:14:25,318
You were good, man.

1791
01:14:25,393 --> 01:14:26,826
You know those Chinese boxes,

1792
01:14:26,894 --> 01:14:29,954
one inside the other inside
the other inside the other?

1793
01:14:29,998 --> 01:14:33,024
I feel like I'm in the last box.

1794
01:14:33,101 --> 01:14:35,331
You son of a...

1795
01:14:35,403 --> 01:14:36,335
bitch!

1796
01:14:36,404 --> 01:14:37,928
How could you do this to us?

1797
01:14:38,006 --> 01:14:39,997
I was worried about you.

1798
01:14:40,041 --> 01:14:42,373
I know, I was tempted
to cop out many times,

1799
01:14:42,410 --> 01:14:44,742
But I couldn't resist
seeing whether or not

1800
01:14:44,812 --> 01:14:46,507
you could refute what I was saying.

1801
01:14:46,547 --> 01:14:48,447
I had the perfect audience.

1802
01:14:48,516 --> 01:14:50,347
Anthropologist, archaeologist,

1803
01:14:50,418 --> 01:14:52,443
Christian literalist...

1804
01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:54,613
a psychologist.

1805
01:14:54,656 --> 01:14:56,715
Okay, I've had enough of this.

1806
01:14:56,758 --> 01:14:58,817
I'm outta here.
You wanna come? Let's go.

1807
01:14:59,961 --> 01:15:01,087
So, John.

1808
01:15:01,162 --> 01:15:02,754
Are you gonna write the story?

1809
01:15:02,797 --> 01:15:04,389
If I do, I'll send you copies.

1810
01:15:04,465 --> 01:15:06,626
Don't bother with mine, okay?

1811
01:15:06,668 --> 01:15:08,863
You are absolutely certifiable.

1812
01:15:08,903 --> 01:15:10,598
I don't know you!

1813
01:15:12,974 --> 01:15:15,306
It was nice seeing
you again, Dr. Oldman.

1814
01:15:16,778 --> 01:15:18,507
Your name's a pun, isn't it?

1815
01:15:18,579 --> 01:15:19,511
Old man?

1816
01:15:21,416 --> 01:15:24,010
Did that help you with your story?

1817
01:15:24,085 --> 01:15:25,609
Linda!

1818
01:15:27,288 --> 01:15:28,380
Bye.

1819
01:15:31,826 --> 01:15:33,794
Well, Art was half right.

1820
01:15:35,330 --> 01:15:36,797
Which half?

1821
01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:42,592
Well, at least I don't
have to throw away half

1822
01:15:42,637 --> 01:15:44,400
of what I know about biology.

1823
01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:46,031
Which half?

1824
01:15:47,642 --> 01:15:49,701
It's a beautiful idea,

1825
01:15:49,744 --> 01:15:53,612
so rich, so full of possibilities.

1826
01:15:54,916 --> 01:15:56,975
Perhaps you should write
a paper on it, doctor.

1827
01:15:57,018 --> 01:15:58,713
Maybe I will.

1828
01:15:58,753 --> 01:16:00,846
I'll interview you in the rubber room

1829
01:16:00,888 --> 01:16:02,355
for further details.

1830
01:16:02,390 --> 01:16:04,449
You may still need help, my friend.

1831
01:16:17,972 --> 01:16:19,371
My ass.

1832
01:16:19,474 --> 01:16:21,567
I thought it sounded pretty good.

1833
01:16:21,609 --> 01:16:23,702
They believe you because they have to.

1834
01:16:23,778 --> 01:16:25,769
But the one thing that I know about you

1835
01:16:25,813 --> 01:16:27,303
is that you would never use people

1836
01:16:27,382 --> 01:16:29,111
or abuse their goodwill and intelligence

1837
01:16:29,183 --> 01:16:30,844
like they think you've
just done to them.

1838
01:16:30,885 --> 01:16:31,977
Psych 101?

1839
01:16:32,019 --> 01:16:34,579
No, it's woman,
one-on-one.

1840
01:16:34,622 --> 01:16:37,386
So you're a pretty fast liar, Mr. Ugg,

1841
01:16:37,425 --> 01:16:40,121
But I wanna know:
What's your real name?

1842
01:16:40,194 --> 01:16:45,131
Believe it or not, the
sound was always John.

1843
01:16:45,199 --> 01:16:47,064
Why'd you cave to Gruber?

1844
01:16:47,101 --> 01:16:48,728
What happened was enough.

1845
01:16:48,803 --> 01:16:50,293
Just-just needed to stop.

1846
01:16:50,405 --> 01:16:52,532
I shouldn't have expected it to work.

1847
01:16:53,941 --> 01:16:55,875
Fourteen thousand years old.

1848
01:16:55,910 --> 01:16:57,844
I bet that's a lot of women.

1849
01:16:57,912 --> 01:16:59,846
Are we counting?

1850
01:16:59,914 --> 01:17:01,142
Maybe.

1851
01:17:03,151 --> 01:17:05,176
Well, I'm taking Edith home.

1852
01:17:05,253 --> 01:17:06,151
Sandy?

1853
01:17:07,488 --> 01:17:09,046
I'm gonna stay.

1854
01:17:13,060 --> 01:17:15,790
Are you sorry for some
of those things you said?

1855
01:17:15,863 --> 01:17:18,354
I'm sorry I said them.

1856
01:17:18,399 --> 01:17:19,798
Well.

1857
01:17:19,867 --> 01:17:21,334
Like a good Christian,

1858
01:17:21,369 --> 01:17:24,497
I... oh, John.

1859
01:17:24,572 --> 01:17:26,369
Oh! Well.

1860
01:17:27,508 --> 01:17:29,772
You did a terrible thing,

1861
01:17:29,811 --> 01:17:32,177
but we're all so
thankful you're all right.

1862
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:35,306
Even Art. He just hates
things he can't understand.

1863
01:17:35,383 --> 01:17:37,078
You're a sadist, John,

1864
01:17:37,185 --> 01:17:39,210
But I admit I got a kick out of

1865
01:17:39,287 --> 01:17:41,016
chasing my tail around your maypole...

1866
01:17:41,088 --> 01:17:43,215
Even if that is all I caught.

1867
01:17:43,291 --> 01:17:44,383
Good luck to you.

1868
01:17:44,425 --> 01:17:45,983
Wish you the best. Thank you.

1869
01:17:46,027 --> 01:17:47,016
Ready?

1870
01:17:56,103 --> 01:17:57,934
Later on.
Okay, good night.

1871
01:18:00,775 --> 01:18:01,639
Mm-hmm.

1872
01:18:05,046 --> 01:18:06,240
Mmm.

1873
01:18:06,347 --> 01:18:09,180
I don't know, man.

1874
01:18:09,250 --> 01:18:11,218
Something about this...

1875
01:18:11,252 --> 01:18:13,482
something about you, John.

1876
01:18:13,554 --> 01:18:15,681
The more I think about it,

1877
01:18:15,756 --> 01:18:18,589
the more I'm no longer
in that Chinese box.

1878
01:18:20,561 --> 01:18:22,358
I sense... space.

1879
01:18:22,396 --> 01:18:27,299
A kinda latitude of what
we happily call reality,

1880
01:18:27,368 --> 01:18:30,360
in which, as everybody keeps saying...

1881
01:18:31,706 --> 01:18:33,401
anything's possible.

1882
01:18:33,474 --> 01:18:35,339
Yes. No, no. No, no.

1883
01:18:35,376 --> 01:18:37,173
No. No more words.

1884
01:18:37,211 --> 01:18:38,906
I'm gonna go home,

1885
01:18:38,980 --> 01:18:40,777
and I'm gonna watch Star Trek

1886
01:18:40,815 --> 01:18:42,874
for a dose of sanity.

1887
01:18:42,917 --> 01:18:44,908
Good luck to you, man,

1888
01:18:44,986 --> 01:18:47,386
wherever this may lead you.

1889
01:18:47,421 --> 01:18:49,787
You drop me a line sometime.

1890
01:18:49,824 --> 01:18:51,621
Let me know how you're making out.

1891
01:18:53,227 --> 01:18:54,194
I will.

1892
01:19:05,640 --> 01:19:08,473
So, John Oldman.

1893
01:19:08,543 --> 01:19:11,103
What other pun names have you used?

1894
01:19:11,145 --> 01:19:12,442
Lots.

1895
01:19:13,981 --> 01:19:17,041
John Paley for John Paleolithic,

1896
01:19:17,084 --> 01:19:19,450
John Savage...

1897
01:19:19,487 --> 01:19:21,580
Got really crazy about 60 years ago,

1898
01:19:21,656 --> 01:19:23,453
when I was teaching at Harvard,

1899
01:19:23,491 --> 01:19:26,251
I was John Thomas Partee.

1900
01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:27,860
John T. Partee...

1901
01:19:27,924 --> 01:19:29,824
- Boston tea party.
- I get it.

1902
01:19:29,850 --> 01:19:30,950
Yeah, I know.

1903
01:19:31,065 --> 01:19:32,265
Wait, wait, wait.

1904
01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:34,400
Boston?

1905
01:19:34,902 --> 01:19:36,995
60 years ago?

1906
01:19:37,071 --> 01:19:39,164
J-John Partee?

1907
01:19:43,077 --> 01:19:47,605
You did not teach chemistry!
I do not believe you!

1908
01:19:48,883 --> 01:19:51,477
Your mother's name was Nola.

1909
01:19:51,500 --> 01:19:52,694
- No.
- Yeah.

1910
01:19:52,700 --> 01:19:54,691
No.

1911
01:19:54,822 --> 01:19:57,290
Yes, Nola.

1912
01:19:57,325 --> 01:19:58,986
My mother!

1913
01:20:00,328 --> 01:20:01,920
I reject this!

1914
01:20:03,531 --> 01:20:05,522
My-my-my dog's name.

1915
01:20:06,634 --> 01:20:08,534
We had him before I was born.

1916
01:20:08,503 --> 01:20:09,503
Woofie.

1917
01:20:09,604 --> 01:20:11,004
Woof, woof, woofie...

1918
01:20:16,444 --> 01:20:18,244
Gruber. She remarried?

1919
01:20:18,312 --> 01:20:20,312
She said you abandoned us.

1920
01:20:21,415 --> 01:20:23,042
Sorry, I had to move on.

1921
01:20:23,117 --> 01:20:24,846
You know that. I left enough.

1922
01:20:24,919 --> 01:20:27,012
- I left enough.
- I'm cold.

1923
01:20:27,054 --> 01:20:29,147
Chilly Willy, always cold.

1924
01:20:29,223 --> 01:20:31,214
Never could stand the cold.

1925
01:20:31,258 --> 01:20:34,958
Wait, you... you had a beard.

1926
01:20:35,029 --> 01:20:36,429
Yeah, you used to tug on it

1927
01:20:36,430 --> 01:20:38,030
to see if it was real.

1928
01:20:38,232 --> 01:20:39,756
- Agh!
- Will!

1929
01:20:39,834 --> 01:20:40,664
God.

1930
01:20:42,136 --> 01:20:43,535
911, now!

1931
01:20:45,539 --> 01:20:47,336
Come on, Will.

1932
01:20:47,375 --> 01:20:48,467
Will.

1933
01:20:48,542 --> 01:20:49,542
Come on, buddy.

1934
01:21:21,642 --> 01:21:23,701
You'll stay in touch, Dr. Oldman,

1935
01:21:23,744 --> 01:21:25,837
in case there are any questions.

1936
01:21:25,913 --> 01:21:27,972
I'll be back for the funeral.

1937
01:21:28,015 --> 01:21:29,004
Miss.

1938
01:21:39,326 --> 01:21:41,453
You never saw a grown child die.

1939
01:21:42,930 --> 01:21:43,862
No.
