Before your father...

371

00:
30:45,192 -- 00:30:46,784

Yeah?

372

00:
30:47,590 -- 00:30:51,455

- there was this boy.

373

00:
30:53,241 -- 00:30:54,591

Did you love him?

374

00:
30:55,360 -- 00:30:56,951

Yeah.

375

00:
31:01,874 -- 00:31:04,260

Well, why didn't you marry him?

376

00:
31:05,528 -- 00:31:09,059

So that you could ask me

this question someday.

377

00:
31:18,400 -- 00:31:20,296

Looks smaller.

378

00:
31:22,119 -- 00:31:24,170

When did he complete it?

379

00:
31:25,127 -- 00:31:27,485

You weren't born yet,

and I was 8.

380

00:
31:31,826 -- 00:31:34,642

Corbusier meets Frank Lloyd Wright.

381

00:
31:35,294 -- 00:31:38,050

You know, Dad played cards

with both of them.

382

00:
31:39,043 -- 00:31:42,229

- Sharing a joint.

- Yeah, well...

383

00:
31:42,794 -- 00:31:44,574

Can't swim.

384

00:
31:44,911 -- 00:31:48,314

There should be a stairway

down to the water, a porch, a deck.

385

00:
31:48,843 -- 00:31:51,116

Here, you're in a...

In a box.

386

00:
31:51,302 -- 00:31:54,308

A glass box with a view

to everything that's around you...

387

00:
31:54,497 -- 00:31:55,846

...but you can't touch it.

388

00:
31:56,030 -- 00:32:00,022

No interconnection

between you and what you're looking at.

389

00:
32:00,210 -- 00:32:02,818

I don't know, you know.

He's got this big maple growing...

390

00:
32:03,005 -- 00:32:05,760

...right in the middle of the house.

- Containment.

391

00:
32:08,902 -- 00:32:12,276

Containment and control.

392

00:
32:13,942 -- 00:32:17,647

This house is about ownership,

not connection.

393

00:
32:18,210 -- 00:32:21,709

I mean, it's beautiful. Seductive, even.

394

00:
32:21,897 -- 00:32:24,631

But it's incomplete.

395

00:
32:26,750 -- 00:32:28,435

It was all about him.

396

00:
32:29,976 -- 00:32:32,187

Dad knew how to build a house,

not a home.

397

00:
32:33,110 -- 00:32:34,336

But you know...

398

00:
32:35,015 -- 00:32:37,255

...I think he wants us to do

what he couldn't.

399

00:
32:37,901 -- 00:32:39,829

But admitting that...

400

00:
32:40,482 -- 00:32:44,222

...would mean admitting

that he came up short in some way...

401

00:
32:44,415 -- 00:32:46,133

...that he could do more.

402

00:
32:46,321 -- 00:32:48,214

And that tortures him.

403

00:
32:49,451 -- 00:32:51,745

Do you remember

being here with Mom?

404

00:
32:58,054 -- 00:32:59,949

I remember she tried

to make it work here...

405

00:
33:01,125 -- 00:33:02,843

...with us...

406

00:
33:03,430 -- 00:33:04,896

...with him.

407

00:
33:06,871 -- 00:33:08,399

Hey, what about Visionary Vanguard?

408

00:
33:08,558 -- 00:33:10,979

- What about it?

- Come on.

409

00:
33:11,140 -- 00:33:14,701

You can't convince me you're gonna

be happy building saltboxes for tourists.

410

00:
33:15,165 -- 00:33:17,250

Nobody's gonna admire you for that.

411

00:
33:17,439 -- 00:33:20,253

- Admire me for that?

- Yeah, Visionary Vanguard.

412

00:
33:20,969 -- 00:33:22,803

That's your idea.

413

00:
33:22,998 -- 00:33:24,685

I can't. But you can keep the name.

414

00:
33:24,842 -- 00:33:26,831

No, come on.

It's gotta be you and me.

415

00:
33:27,023 -- 00:33:29,566

Henry, I'm sorry, I can't.

416

00:
33:29,755 -- 00:33:31,127

I just...

417

00:
33:31,352 -- 00:33:34,297

- What?

- I've got other plans.

418

00:
33:34,455 -- 00:33:36,321

You have a girlfriend?

419

00:
33:38,021 -- 00:33:38,995

No...

420

00:
33:39,157 -- 00:33:40,779

No.

421

00:
33:41,121 -- 00:33:44,002

- What is that? You hesitated.

- No, I didn't hesitate.

422

00:
33:45,669 -- 00:33:47,879

Come on, man.

I don't have any time for that.

423

00:
33:49,264 -- 00:33:51,157

What does time have to do with it?

424

00:
33:51,873 -- 00:33:54,052

Oh, you're gonna think I'm crazy.

425

00:
33:58,603 -- 00:34:00,842

iMy dearest Mr. Wyler:/i

426

00:
34:01,028 -- 00:34:03,542

iAre you willing to play a game/i

iwith me?/i

427

00:
34:04,132 -- 00:34:07,106

iTwo years ago today,/i

iI was taking the 145 train to Madison.../i

428

00:
34:07,327 -- 00:34:10,426

i... from the Riverside station/i

iand I forgot something there./i

429

00:
34:10,613 -- 00:34:12,937

iIt was a gift from my father./i

430

00:
34:13,376 -- 00:34:17,054

iIf you find it,/i

ican you please put it in the mailbox?/i

431

00:
34:17,986 -- 00:34:19,945

iIt would mean a lot./i

432

00:
34:20,230 -- 00:34:23,202

iYours, Kate./i

433

00:
34:37,707 -- 00:34:42,304

- Final call for the 5:46 to Madison.

- Do you really wanna know? Come on.

434

00:
34:42,499 -- 00:34:44,519

- All aboard.

- Okay.

435

00:
34:53,834 -- 00:34:55,300

I'll call you.

436

00:
35:33,340 -- 00:35:36,438

iKate, I found it. I have it with me./i

437

00:
35:36,626 -- 00:35:39,109

iOne day I'll get it to you. Trust me./i

438

00:
35:39,331 -- 00:35:42,086

iI know how important it is to you./i

439

00:
35:43,263 -- 00:35:46,425

iYou might not remember,/i

ibut we saw each other./i

440

00:
35:46,610 -- 00:35:48,538

iAt least, I saw you./i

441

00:
35:49,683 -- 00:35:53,517

iYou never told me/i

ihow beautiful you are./i

442

00:
35:53,739 -- 00:35:56,030

iWell, maybe you saw somebody else./i

443

00:
35:56,225 -- 00:35:58,519

iThat was a bad hair year for me./i

444

00:
35:58,713 -- 00:36:01,783

iLong brown hair./i

iGentle, unguarded eyes./i

445

00:
36:01,971 -- 00:36:03,688

iOkay, okay, okay./i

446

00:
36:03,906 -- 00:36:05,590

iYou saw me./i

447

00:
36:06,209 -- 00:36:08,198

iBut I still don't know/i

iwhat you look like./i

448

00:
36:09,650 -- 00:36:12,834

iWell, why don't we just get together/i

iin the future.../i

449

00:
36:13,030 -- 00:36:15,479

i... and you can let me know/i

iwhat you think./i

450

00:
36:16,376 -- 00:36:18,031

It's a date.

451

00:
36:20,986 -- 00:36:22,358

Okay.

452

00:
36:22,553 -- 00:36:26,541

Why don't you call me

July 10th, 2006...

453

00:
36:26,729 -- 00:36:31,548

...at 9:
05 p.m.

454

00:
36:45,072 -- 00:36:47,246

- Hello.

i- Kate?/i

455

00:
36:47,434 -- 00:36:50,043

- Yes.

i- It's Morgan./i

456

00:
36:52,719 -- 00:36:54,185

Morgan.

457

00:
36:54,378 -- 00:36:57,047

iI'm in Chicago. I came for a meeting,/i

ibut it was canceled.../i

458

00:
36:57,234 -- 00:36:58,825

i... so I thought I'd give you a call./i

459

00:
36:59,568 -- 00:37:01,527

Hey, have you eaten?

460

00:
37:01,719 -- 00:37:04,935

- No, but I'm not...

- Neither have I. I realized I'm starving.

461

00:
37:05,161 -- 00:37:07,515

- We could grab a quick bite.

- Okay.

462

00:
37:07,709 -- 00:37:09,426

- Yeah?

- All right.

463

00:
37:09,644 -- 00:37:12,986

- Hey, wait up.

- Watch out, man.

464

00:
37:13,270 -- 00:37:15,815

- All right.

- Looks pretty good.

465

00:
37:16,006 -- 00:37:17,354

- Perfect.

- No, Morgan, it's...

466

00:
37:17,540 -- 00:37:18,764

- It's not.

- No, no, trust me.

467

00:
37:18,982 -- 00:37:21,256

It's... Okay.

468

00:
37:22,609 -- 00:37:23,771

Hi there.

469

00:
37:23,961 -- 00:37:25,951

One sec.

Could you hold on for a moment?
