Jimmy P. Page #5

---

I changed names.

I don't believe it!

You didn't tell your patient

you're French, did you?

My place of birth has no

bearing on Jimmy's cure.

You lied.

He was supposed to be here at 5.

Well, if you went back

and get him away.

- Sorry.

- Oh, this is my friend, Madeleine.

Un bon ami.

(A good friend)

- Jimmy has been to France.

- Enchant. (Nice to meet you)

So, you like museums.

Yeah, um...

Admittance was free.

We're heading back to the hospital.

Can we offer you a ride?

You smoke?

Smoke.

I got secrets, cousin.

Tonight...

I'll be...

flying among the pine trees...

like fire!

You keep on crowning cousin.

Keep on crowning.

- George?

- Oh God.

Lost in your thoughts?

Just loafing.

You know, free associating...

- Are you busy?

- Well...

Not at all.

You know this Blackfoot practice

we call "Pisting"?

The husbands used to

pull the labia of their wives.

Some of the old ladies

had 3 inches long labia!

Alas, no one's playing

this game anymore.

That's a pity!

Jimmy and I, both would

give anything to see just one.

- Can you imagine?

- No.

Listen...

You got a letter this morning.

From France.

Not a very nice letter.

A copy was sent to the American

Psychoanalytic Association.

They don't recommend

accepting you as an analyst.

If you went back to

France, could you work it out?

I don't even know.

Well, at least,

you have worked here.

One patient?

And take good care of him.

Don't be ashamed.

It is important that you

depend on me to access.

It is also important that you

understand it and fix it.

That is what cures you.

If only I knew...

Is there anything that

suggests childhood?

Well, there are things that happened

when I was real small...

that no one knows about.

There were two girls

that lived nearby.

They were sisters.

One of them was younger than me

and the other one was older.

We were playing on the ice

and the younger one fell.

I didn't help for I was so scared.

I ran away.

She drowned.

How old were you then?

I was five or six...

before my father died.

It was bad.

The older sister...

of the girl that drowned...

she used to go and play in the shed.

And she would call me in.

Make me play with her vagina.

I didn't know what it was for.

How old was this girl?

She was about six years older than me.

Did you put it in?

No.

Just your hand?

I always wanted to leave.

But she would drag me back in

and forced me to do it again.

Then one day, my sister caught us.

She beat the living tar

out of me right there.

Filthy!

Filthy!

Then she told my mother.

But I lied.

I never admitted it.

This first, you mentioned

the drowning and fear.

Then

sex and lie.

When you were a, be the

as a sniper, in the army.

Did you have a

telescope on your rifle?

Yes, I did.

Did you ever...

spy on anyone during your childhood?

Sex spying?

About a year after my father died,

one day... I came home from school

and when I went in, I saw...

a woman...

My mother.

In bed with another man.

I don't know who the other man was.

I left her and ran away.

I got to my sister's house.

She was married already.

I was never with

my mother ever since.

Gayle raised me up from then on.

Well, you were punished

for playing with the girl,

whose sister died.

But this man didn't get punished

for being with your mother,

when your father died.

I guess all my thoughts are mixed up.

The child saw himself naturally

replacing his dead

father in the parental bed.

But what a disappointment when he

finds his mother in someone else's arms.

"That's my place!"

The boy sees the lover's penis.

He can't stop looking at the fascin.

I don't believe the little

boy desires that penis.

No, he's Hamlet. He wishes

to take the place of the lover!

Congratulations!

So now, you should shift

to the passive technique.

Just stop interfering.

Jimmy will find his way

through the dark forest.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Atterr.

Busy?

Come on!

Wait.

- Hurry up!

- Yup!

My husband wrote...

- Anything wrong?

- No.

Lukasz and his friends.

He is lost without me.

Last year I was sure he had

an affair with this blonde.

I don't blame him.

Around him I'm so happy.

With you, I'm light.

But in real life I'm heavy.

You don't seem so light to me.

He sent me this ticket.

Your husband is a great man.

FIRST CLASS:

The Queen Ann

The Queen Anne leaves

for France from New York

the first Friday of next month.

Madeleine I'm never

go back to France.

Let the stick decide...

Falls back toward me, and

I stay here, as I always do.

Falls forward toward you...

Well, that's the law.

Here it goes Ann.

Well Ann, you win.

It's in the law.

I have always been a

man who let a woman die.

We talked about my

daughter's mother, right?

Jane's family came to

Browning for the winter.

When they started school,

they have charity balls,

card parties, anything

to raise money.

That night there was to be a dance.

That same afternoon, Jane told

me she was gonna have a baby.

She was two months along.

It was our secret.

She asked me to come to the dance.

She was coming with her folks.

I need my best horse tonight.

I got on my good clothes

...and told my sister

I was going to the ball.

Make us all proud.

Come on!

I looked across the room

and saw Jane in the

back with her mother.

She was pointing at me.

I was in the doorway

and another girl said to me:

"I'm sick. I gotta go home..."

"Can you take me back?"

I said sure.

I took the girl to the house,

I rode right back to the dance.

As I tied up my horse

behind a round horn,

I saw a man and a boy...

I mean...

a man and a girl

along the trail coming

from behind the haystack.

At first, I paid no attention.

But then I walked in

and they were right behind me.

My daughter's mother

with another boy.

Then she came to me and started

talking about us having to marry.

Jimmy! I've been looking

for you everywhere.

I had to go.

This afternoon you said you would talk

about marriage. My mother is waiting.

I thought. "Why was she

behind the haystack?"

I felt bad...

I said:
"Tomorrow I have to help

my brother-in-law feed the sheep".

And I went home.

Fine, leave!

You can't dance anyway!

After that night, I ducked

every time I saw her in town.

Then the school found out about Jane

and they kicked me out.

When her family asked,

I refused to marry her.

We had a trial.

The first time I met Jimmy,

it was at my uncle's house.

They said the child was mine.

Our cousin Jack was visiting.

It was a sunny day.

And he came to me.

And we knew each other.

Your Honor,

my client comes from one of the

most respected families in the...

Well, I had this lawyer.

He must have been really good

because he won.

He beat that case.

I was free.

But I felt like hell.

Paternity has not been established.

Therefore, in the case of

WhiteCloud versus Picard

a suit of custody brought by

the plaintiff Jane WhiteCloud,

the court finds the defendant.

We say that James Picard is not
