A Kiss Before Dying Page #2

- No.

What's with him, anyway?

I don't know.

He's... he's like that, I guess.

Now, did he say aldehydes or ketones?

Aldehydes.

I wish he wouldn't talk like

he had a mouthful of mush.

- Well, so long.

- So long.

I'm not much good without my notebook.

Let me see your notes.

Try it with ether.

I'm sure they'll fit. I made them

the same size as the other ones.

They're beautiful.

I want to do everything for you.

And I will.

Finish your hamburger, will ya?

Dory, you remember

that picture of me I gave you?

- Mm-hm.

- Could you lend it to me?

I'd like to have some copies made.

Mother wants to send some to relatives.

- Have you told her yet?

- No, I didn't think it was fair.

You're not telling your family.

I'm dying to meet her.

What's that?

That's me a couple of years ago.

Pretty skinny, huh?

That's Dad, that's Ellen.

It was her birthday. She got a hi-fi set.

She's crazy about Debussy.

Not bad. A little beat.

I think it's very handsome.

And I want it back.

Come on, honey. It's getting late.

Just a kiss before dying

When you kiss me goodbye

Darling? I've been meaning to ask you,

can we go to the prom?

But you didn't want us to be seen around.

All the out-of-the-way places

we've been to.

I just didn't want it to get back to Dad

that I was going steady.

It doesn't matter now.

Do you really wanna go to the prom?

Please.

Then that's where you're gonna go.

Hi.

I'm struggling with this Spanish.

I'll help you after class.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

Last time, I'm afraid the bell interrupted us

at a time when we were developing

several major concepts.

Because of that, it might be a good idea

if we were to review some of

the ground that we covered.

I might point out to you, if I may,

that our relationship demands eventually

a certain testing programme.

It's a good idea to pay attention

to what I'm saying,

and to this diagram on the board.

We discussed the Trinitarian aspect of it.

When we read in the works of Edwards,

particularly, we saw a painful thing.

We saw a man trying to reconcile

predestination with free will -

and not succeeding, of course.

We discussed Puritanism,

you may remember.

Remember that,

with its concept of predestination,

you have what is essentially

a pessimistic philosophy.

It might, in fact,

even be called theological determinism.

And then later we came to

what I like to call rationalism.

It's variously called other things.

The age itself is called the Age of Reason

or the Age of Enlightenment.

I think that psychologically...

- Hello?

- Dory? Me.

- Listen, I've got to see you right away.

- I can't come out. I just washed my hair.
