I bet she never imagined she would live

in a room with a suitcase.

I can not believe you have not brought

the rest of their stuff.

Maybe I'll buy new things.

Start from scratch.

It is a simple reflection of light

using Internet converging lens.

Oh, I forgot to turn off.

Your husband asks you not

because you're not in the office

some afternoons?

I never asked.

- What will you do if he finds out?

- I'm not sure.

When I was diagnosed,

I said I understood

if I had to get

another company.

- But do not believe him.

- Some lie to make others happy.

Look, his health is improving.

Why should torment him

with doubts?

What the eyes do not see

can not hurt you, right?

Maybe it's better than him

living in illusions.

Your mind is your own address.

And you can make yourself a hell of heaven,

heaven and hell.

Paradise lost. I'm teaching

Milton this semester.

When I see you again?

Next Thursday, after my

class from 4:
00

I was serious,

when he said that changed my life.

I'm different now.

You set me free.

What?

In a predictable life.

From a boring routine.

I'll see you again on Thursday.

At the same time.

"What the eyes do not see

out of mind. "

Hey, Bea.

Get some rest.

I found this in the hall closet.

He had a nice red too.

It's almost 1:
00 am.

Ta in my schedule.

All right. You can go.

I clean the bathroom.

It's cold here.

How many floors are still missing?

Just two more.

You can.

Lives alone here?

Good little place here.

Family, friends ...

decorations ...

- He likes to live alone?

- Yes I could do where I wanted.

OK What is it?

I won on my birthday

at age 5.

My mother was sick

and a neighbor took me to the beach,

I sat on the peer with her to see the water ...

and the way the sun shone on

water, looked like a fire, e. ..

I strained to touch it with

feet, and fell.

- The guy had to jump to save me.

- Where is the rest of it?

Rotted. And an eye sank.

- Looks like she is flashing.

- It's a sign.

I could have drowned on that day.

But not acnteceu.

Oh, I brought you something ...

the Rudolphs sent to you.

Thanks.

Greece. I think we were here

a few months ago.

I guess we will go many places.

It has a lot of money.

- They sleep in separate bedrooms?

- Yeah, probably are also psychologists.

The rich have nothing better

to do with your money.

What to do if you had a lot

money well?

Probably would give you.

Hi, I had to sit.

My back is killing me.

- We are just finishing here.

- Oh, do not worry. I will not mess up.

His shirt is torn.

I would seam it if you want.

- If there is too much work.

- No way.

- He smiled at you.

- I've seen.

Do not judge each other not to be judged.

Beware, the judge is always watching.

As an example of suffering

and patience,

see the prophets who spoke

the name of the Lord.

Watch out, thought they were happy,

but no!

He came every night that week.

Lets all scattered everywhere.

- Did not even have to get on the bathroom this morning.

- What does your partner say?

She says she is passionate.

How can you tell who is in love

by someone who barely knew.

Ridiculous.

Not just because they will have to

leave me. You can bet on it.

- What do I do?

- You can stay with me.

Barely have room for you.

For the rich is easy. No

need to worry about anything.

The rich care about other

things, I think.

Like what?

By not becoming poor.

One day you'll see I'm right.

Life is not fair.

It may seem now.

But do not know what may yet come by

forward. Amazing things happen.

You really believe that?

Well ..

never told you this before, but ...

the day I almost drowned,

I had a view across the water.

Then I asked about what had happened

but nobody saw anything.

With what looked like?

It was white, like a candle

flutters in the wind.

And as I watched,

I had the feeling like

were floating.

Then I saw that everything was going to end well.

And for some reason I got saved.

"I once met a happy man.

Her happiness was his misfortune. "

What do you look so there

Wade attention? Your horoscope?

It will be another great day for

Bowman you?

I was watching the sports session.

My son was chosen for the swim team.

Really? Which one?

The genius of mathematics or the other?

The musician prodigy.

Both are good thanks to God.

And what God thinks of the good

about your girlfriend?

What girlfriend?

You know. That speech in which

very sweet on the phone.

Nobody talks that way even with a jailer.

Come on guys. We do not need to hear

How happy is the marriage of Bowman.

- I do.

- Will do 23 years next month.

23 years you say?

It is a coincidence.

My wife and I were happy

for 23 years. Oh we met.

What is all this excitement?

Any holiday that I'm not knowing?

No, Wade was telling us

on his luck.

Know how to tell the fortune:

Lucky for some, misery for others.

There was a disaster in the Hudson

need to give them a price.

Some idiot cut a tree

that fell into the neighbor's house.

He has our policy.

Half the roof was lost.

Lucky for him not to have happened weeks

afternoon with the rain.

Yes, absolutely. It will

love your point of view.

Take, for you Mickey. He slipped

and fell. I think it's a professional.

Has two more necklaces

Stolen on his record.

- See you guys.

- I hope you enjoy the traffic, Bowman.

I heard on the radio that the tunnels are sealed off

for at least 1 hour.

No problem. I have been in

half of those books in a k7.

- Yeah, good old smile.

Always finds a way out.

Kincannon called. The monthly meeting

if adinatou. What do you think?

and steals the paper in front of

your door every morning.

That is looking at, sir?

Want something?

I wish it were taking care of business

elsewhere. We have children here.

What are you doing old man? Going to arrest me?

Send me to jail, eh?

Arrest you for what you watch the cable tv

all day at the expense of others? Not really.

Now excuse me. Yes I am

a real job.

Our rating lowered,

and we are trying to find a

way to fix it.

So I'd like to hear from

all departments ...

and start with Gene

industry's complaints.

Well, we're having a good performance,

Costs per claim are very low

and all are legitimate.

Well, not low enough.

The obvious solution is to increase the bonuses,
