He says...

He says that your mind is such

that many thoughts may, uh...

Come and, um, many deliberations

might happen in one's thought,

And the truth of the matter is

that he has to confess that,

Yes indeed, he has had

a feeling of desire towards me,

But he also has consciously, not

unconsciously, tried to, um...

Get rid of those thoughts.

No, it was really

difficult in the beginning.

I actually didn't

speak any English.

I can remember this one time,

I was on a beach,

and there are all these kids

And they're all singing,

yellow submarine.

I didn't know the words

and all I could hear was like,

Yell-A submarine,

yell-A submarine.

So, I started singing with them

and I was going, like...

Yell-A submarine...

yell-A submarine.

I mean, you're so vulnerable to

that, right, when you're a kid.

You just sort of, like...

you just sort of imitate, like,

What you think other people

w... want to hear,

But it doesn't necessarily have

anything to do with what you're

Feeling or, you know, what's

going through your mind.

Is there a phone

that I could use?

Oh, yeah, um...

Just on top of

the water cooler, there.

"I don't know

Another way it could go

I'm living my life...

Without you.

I miss you, baby.

I miss you so.

How much I love you..."

What's so funny?

He knows how to do a kgb thing.

What do you mean?

Checking your passport.

You want him to do it?

You want to see that?

Yes.

So, this is going to be him

Checking my passport

like he's a KGB agent.

- He's checking my passport as...

- Ok.

- He was a kgb agent.

- Ok, ok.

Let him do it to me.

Let him do it to the camer.

- Let him do it to the camer?

- Yeah.

Ok.

Try it.

He wants your passport.

My passport.

Ok.

Here we go.

"Surrounded by darkness,

Even in broad daylight

I keep on trying, but I...

Feel like Im losing the fight,

Tell me what's right,

Tell me what's wrong,

Only got one life,

It's only for so long,

I'm living my life,

Without you,

Without you"

Are you still listening?

You can put down the phone now.

Yeah, it's ok. Its enough.

Is everything all right?

Yeah, everything's fine.

So when you said before that

your father was Armenian,

I mean, he's not really

Armenian, or, like...

Well, he considers

himself to be...

Well, why would he...

I mean, it's ridiculous

I mean, that's like saying,

I consider myself Yugoslavian,,,

Or inuit or something.

I mean it's like...

I mean that, just

because he has...

I mean... I mean, because his

grandfather was Armenian...

Yeah, I suppose

it is strange.

Yeah, I mean, my...

I don't know, it's kind

of weird, I mean...

I mean, I consider myself

to be Egyptian

And I grew up in Canada,

born in Canada.

And I still trace myself,

you know...

Yeah, but you act Egyptian.

And like, the way you

walked in here and stuff.

How does one act Egyptian?

Just sort of like

the way you moved around.

It's kind of... like,

I can tell...

Kind of the way you...

I don't know, just the perfume.

...carry myself?

Well, the perfume and stuff.

And just sort of...

You know there's a kind of,

uh, a tendency you have towards,

Kind of appearing

in profile all the time.

You know like they do on...

kind of like cryptic...

- Nefertiti, ha, ha.

- Well, sort of, yeah. Sort of...

Oh, I see... I see.

But you wouldn't

probably get that in me

- I wouldn't think, right?

- Well, I can see it in you.

I wouldn't think

you were Canadian.

- You "conceive" in me?

- I can "see" it in you.

Oh, you can see it.

Hi,

Im not in at the present time.

Please leave a message at the

sound of the tone. Thank you.

Today is the last day

of the year.

I'm about to take

our calendar off the wall.

I looked at all

the pictures again.

I was surprised to remember

what happened in each place.

It's strange, but the strongest

memory I have has nothing,

To do with any of the churches.

It was that time we drove into

that huge flock of sheep.

The one that never

seemed to end.

You took out your camer,

and as you were taping,

He placed his hand on mine.

I remember because

I gripped his hand...

Watching you grip your

camer so tightly,

Like you knew what was

happening behind you.

Did you know?

Were you there?

Are you there?
