worry, the entire floor is a tomb.

202

00:
18:12,950 -- 00:18:15,325

What this?

203

00:
18:15,326 -- 00:18:17,700

212

00:
20:02,050 -- 00:20:04,250

Damn it! Write it!

213

00:
20:04,400 -- 00:20:08,800

The time it bit you at 4:00.

- It is 4:
00.

214

00:
20:09,000 -- 00:20:11,948

The clock says 4:00.

Why are you here?

219

00:
21:33,800 -- 00:21:37,600

What did he say?

- Nothing what should I say?

220

00:
21:37,850 -- 00:21:41,750

Get out of here, man!

You know what you did.

221

00:
21:46,800 -- 00:21:49,000

Kids! A hurry!

222

00:
21:50,000 -- 00:21:52,211

The moon goes, it's nap time.

223

00:
21:56,600 -- 00:22:00,350

Go! Come on, now!

224

00:

Oh, Jamie ...

225

00:
22:21,600 -- 00:22:23,800

My God, I am lost.

226

00:
22:25,900 -- 00:22:29,650

Perhaps this is what

need? My story.

227

00:
22:40,650 -- 00:22:42,850

Wait! Where are you going?

228

00:
22:50,800 -- 00:22:53,050

Help me ...

229

00:
23:01,000 -- 00:23:04,150

You? My God, Edgar Poe.

230

00:
23:07,600 -- 00:23:09,800

Show me the way.

231

00:
23:19,850 -- 00:23:22,050

Hall, wake up!

232

00:
23:22,400 -- 00:23:25,450

Are you still in bed? Wake up.

- What? It was not me.

233

00:
23:25,600 -- 00:23:29,350

It's me, is your wife. Hello!

234

00:
23:33,200 -- 00:23:36,350

Hall, wake up. I know you're there.

235

00:
23:36,500 -- 00:23:38,500

What is that?

- Have you woke up? I am.

236

00:
23:38,650 -- 00:23:40,650

What? Are you okay?

237

00:
23:40,800 -- 00:23:43,050

I'm your wife.

- Yes, I know who you are.

238

00:
23:43,800 -- 00:23:45,850

I need ...

239

00:
23:46,000 -- 00:23:49,650

A second. That ... God

my, what have you done?

240

00:
23:50,650 -- 00:23:52,650

Yes? That?

241

00:
23:52,800 -- 00:23:54,800

Do you know how much it costs?

- I know.

242

00:
23:54,950 -- 00:23:57,150

$ 160 thousand dollars.

243

00:
23:57,300 -- 00:24:00,000

No, it costs more than that, is invaluable.

244

00:
24:00,150 -- 00:24:03,750

Should not touch. How

I got there? Calm down.

245

00:
24:03,900 -- 00:24:09,600

For, whatever you do,

keep it, this is not a joke.

246

00:
24:10,150 -- 00:24:12,850

You think ... It scarcely

funny. It is a good book, right?

247

00:
24:13,050 -- 00:24:15,050

Yes, it is Whitman ...

248

00:
24:15,200 -- 00:24:16,975

that with collectors

249

00:
24:16,976 -- 00:24:18,750

private, you understand what that means?

250

00:
24:19,000 -- 00:24:21,700

He did the typography for yourself!

- You think I'm kidding?

251

00:
24:21,850 -- 00:24:22,875

Please ...

252

00:

24:24,050 -- 00:24:26,850

than your own family.

254

00:
24:27,050 -- 00:24:29,350

You need gloves to touch him.

255

00:
24:29,500 -- 00:24:31,700

Get me the advancement

or say goodbye to him.

256

00:
24:31,850 -- 00:24:34,800

Please ...

- Do not make me do it.

Where is the Sheriff?

- It's Sunday, is in the church.

283

00:
28:46,250 -- 00:28:50,900

It's a mystery, is not very religious.
