[0:05] Hold on, sir.
[0:05] Did you, uh, watch your ears?
[0:07] I'm trying to understand.
[1:58] Oh, my God.
[3:31] Yeah.
[3:31] Yeah.
[3:34] Yeah.
[3:55] This is a bottle of ocean air.
[4:25] And so that's the only fact that they've been able to attempt to do anything else.
[4:47] Well, I guess once, I'm so sorry, Mr. Malick, you had to stay in the bed, but I wish you well.
[4:53] I'll tell Carol to bring your booze.
[4:55] Right, right.
[4:55] Well, yeah.
[4:56] You were getting it out of you.
[4:58] But thank God.
[4:59] Don't go.

[5:34] Yeah.
[5:45] Oh, boy.
[5:46] Well, you take care.
[5:47] You take care.

[5:56] Okay.
