 　　[00:01.76]I used to sit there and think,

 

　　[00:06.24]"I hope to Christ¹ I don’t end up like you."

 

　　[00:12.56]Now, here I am, a 30-year-old Knox man.

 

　　[00:19.44]Can you beat that?

 

　　[00:23.16]I think I kind of lost you...

 

　　[00:28.44]Your father worked for Knox?

 

　　[00:30.60]I’m sorry, everything’s just kind of going out of focus.

 

　　[00:42.88]Why don’t we get some air, you and me?

 

　　[01:25.00]Is this you?

 

　　[01:28.48]Yeah.

 

　　[01:29.72]- You been to Paris? - I’ve never really been anywhere.

 

　　[01:33.80]Maybe I’ll take you with me then.

 

　　[01:36.56]I’m going back the first chance I get, I tell you.

 

　　[01:39.40]People are alive there. Not like here.

 

　　[01:49.68]All I know, April, is I want to feel things.

 

　　[01:55.56]Really feel them, you know.

 

　　[02:00.88]How’s that for an ambition?

 

　　[02:04.60]Frank² Wheeler? I think you’re the most interesting person I’ve ever met.

 

　　[02:18.20]I guess this wasn’t what you had in mind when you went to work this morning?

 

　　[02:22.88]No. It certainly wasn’t.

 

　　[02:43.32]Do you have a cigarette, Frank?

 

　　[02:47.12]Yeah, sure.

 

　　[02:56.04]There you go.

 

　　[02:59.76]Can I get you a drink or anything?

 

　　[03:02.52]No thanks, Maureen. Actually, it’s...

 

　　[03:04.92]It’s getting kind of late. I guess I’d better be cutting out.

 

　　[03:09.56]Gee, that’s right. Did you miss your train?

 

　　[03:14.80]That’s all right, I’ll catch the next one.

 

　　[03:18.72]Listen, you were swell³.

 

　　[03:28.52]Take care now.

 

　　[04:02.84]- Frank. - Why are you all dressed up?

 

　　[04:06.48]First of all, I missed you all day and I want to say I’m sorry.

 

　　[04:10.88]I’m sorry for the way I’ve been since the play.

 

　　[04:14.20]I’m sorry for everything, and I love you.

 

　　[04:19.92]The rest can wait.

 

　　[04:21.48]Now, you just wait here till I call you. Okay?

 

　　[04:27.52]Okay.

 

　　[04:37.80]All right, Frank. You can come in now.

 

　　[04:54.08]Happy birthday to you

 

　　[04:57.28]Happy birthday to you

 

　　[05:00.52]Happy birthday, dear Daddy

 

　　[05:04.80]Happy birthday to you

 

　　[05:12.96]- I love you, Daddy. - I love you, too.

 

　　[05:31.68]Frank.

 

　　[05:39.64]Frank. I have had the most wonderful idea.

 

　　[05:44.60]- I’ve been thinking about it all day. - Baby, what’s all this about?

 

　　[05:48.12]Do you know how much money we have saved?

 

　　[05:50.16]Enough to live on for six months without you earning another dime⁴.

 

　　[05:53.36]And with the money we could get from the house and the car, longer than that.

 

　　[05:56.44]"What we could get for the house"?

 

　　[05:58.36]Sweetheart, what are you talking about? Where are we going to live?

 

　　[06:02.92]Paris.

 

　　[06:05.12]What?

 

　　[06:06.20]You always said it was the only place you’d ever been

 

　　[06:08.36]that you wanted to go back to, the only place that was worth living.

 

　　[06:11.96]So why don’t we go there?

 

　　[06:13.56]- You’re serious? - Yes. What’s stopping us?

 

　　[06:18.16]What’s stopping us? Well, I can think of a number of different things.

 

　　[06:21.60]For example, what kind of a job could I possibly get?

 

　　[06:25.28]You won’t be getting any kind of a job, because I will.

 

　　[06:29.84]Oh, right, right.

 

　　[06:31.48]Don’t laugh at me. Listen a minute.

 

　　[06:33.92]Do you know what they pay for secretarial positions

 

　　[06:36.64]- in government agencies⁵ in Europe? - No, I don’t.

 

　　[06:38.72]Listen, Frank, I’m serious about this. Do you think I’m kidding or something?

 

　　[06:41.76]Okay, okay. I just have a couple of questions, is all.

 

　　[06:44.24]For one thing, what exactly am I supposed to be doing

 

　　[06:46.96]while you’re out earning all this money?

 

　　[06:49.24]Don’t you see? That’s the whole idea.

 

　　[06:53.24]You’ll be doing what you should’ve been allowed to do seven years ago.

 

　　[06:56.64]You’ll have time.

 

　　[06:58.48]For the first time in your life you’ll have time to find out

 

　　[07:00.60]what it is that you actually want to do.

 

　　[07:02.84]And when you figure it out,

 

　　[07:04.24]you’ll have the time and the freedom to start doing it.

 

　　[07:10.60]Sweetheart, it’s just not very realistic, is all.

 

　　[07:17.88]No, Frank. This is what’s unrealistic.

 

　　[07:22.64]It’s unrealistic for a man with a fine mind to go on working

 

　　[07:26.28]year after year at a job he can’t stand,

 

　　[07:28.92]coming home to a place he can’t stand,

 

　　[07:30.72]to a wife who’s equally unable to stand the same things.

 

　　[07:35.48]Do you want to know the worst part?

 

　　[07:38.80]Our whole existence here is based on this great premise⁶

 

　　[07:42.24]that we’re special and superior⁷ to the whole thing.

 

　　[07:46.60]But we’re not.

 

　　[07:48.68]We’re just like everyone else.

 

　　[07:50.76]Look at us. We’ve bought into the same ridiculous delusion⁸.

 

　　[07:54.68]This idea that you have to resign from life

 

　　[07:56.80]and settle down the moment you have children.

 

　　[08:00.92]And we’ve been punishing each other for it.

 

　　[08:03.48]Listen, we decided⁹ to move out here.

 

　　[08:06.48]No one forced me to take the job at Knox.

 

　　[08:08.44]I mean, whoever said I was meant to be a big deal, anyway?

 

　　[08:11.16]When I first met you, there was nothing in the world you couldn’t do or be.

 

　　[08:15.24]When you first met me I was a little wise guy

 

　　[08:17.08]with a big mouth, that’s all.

 

　　[08:18.16]You were not. How can you even say that?

 

　　[08:23.24]Okay. Okay, so I’ll have time.

 

　　[08:27.12]And God knows that’s appealing. It’s very appealing.

 

　　[08:30.64]And everything you’re saying makes sense

 

　　[08:32.92]if I had a definite talent, if I were a writer or an artist.

 

　　[08:35.96]No. But, Frank, listen. Listen to me.

 

　　[08:38.84]It’s what you are that’s being stifled¹⁰.

 

　　[08:41.32]It’s what you are that’s being denied and denied in this kind of life.

 

　　[08:47.92]And what’s that?

 

　　[08:52.28]Don’t you know?

 

　　[08:56.12]You’re the most beautiful and wonderful thing in the world.

 

　　[09:03.64]You’re a man.

 

　　[09:23.24]This is our chance, Frank. This is our one chance.

 

　　[09:34.40]Okay.

 

　　[09:39.24]Okay?

 

　　[09:42.68]Why not? Why the hell¹¹ not?

 

　　[05:10.80]Happy birthday, darling.
