00:22 - I'm supposed to lead to the finale of my show right now,
00:46 but I'm having such a wonderful time,
00:48 and I have no idea where to go. - Paul.
00:51 - So if you'd like me to stay in place tomorrow for you,
00:53 I'd love to.
00:54 - Hmm?
00:55 - I know you've been out.
00:58 - What?
01:04 - You've been out of your room.
01:06 - No, I haven't.
01:08 - Paul, my little ceramic penguin in the study
01:13 always faces due south.
01:17 - I don't know what you're talking about.
01:19 Ceramic penguin.
01:21 - Is this what you're looking for?
01:25 I know you've been out twice, Paul.
01:30 First I couldn't figure out how you did it,
01:32 but last night I found your key.
01:35 I know I left my scrapbook out,
01:42 I can imagine what you might be thinking of me,
01:44 but you see, Paul, it's all okay.
01:47 Last night it came so clear.
01:49 I realize you just need more time.
01:51 Eventually you'll come to accept the idea of being here.
01:54 Paul, do you know about the early days
01:57 of the Kimberly diamond mines?
01:59 Do you know what they did to the native workers
02:01 who stole diamonds?
02:02 Don't worry, they didn't kill them.
02:06 That would be like junking a Mercedes
02:07 just because it had a broken spring.
02:09 No, if they caught them,
02:10 they had to make sure they could go on working,
02:12 but they also had to make sure they could never run away.
02:15 The operation was called hobbling.
02:17 - Annie, whatever you think I'm not doing,
02:31 please don't do it.
02:32 Annie, for God's...
02:39 - Shh, darling, trust me.
02:42 - For God's sake.
02:43 - It's for the best.
02:44 - Annie, please!
02:45 (Paul screaming)
02:49 - Almost done.
02:50 Just one more.
02:51 God, I love you.
