I Heart Huckabees Page #2

---

You want us to stay

away from your job?

Yeah. If you come snooping

around my office...

it could make me look unstable

and it could hurt me.

I want you

to meet my colleague.

- Bernard?

- Uh-huh.

- This is Mr. Markovski.

- Hi.

- He's going to have to be pro bono.

- Okay. Sounds good.

Thank you very much

for taking on my case.

- Oh, you're welcome. You're welcome.

- Hold on.

- He hasn't signed a contract.

- Let's do this and then we'll get to the contract.

- It's too much too soon.

- It's always too much too soon.

That's the nature of the beast.

- Approach, patience, finesse.

- Will you stop?

- Come on.

- We need to start with his specifics, Bernard.

We need to go past logic though.

Come on. Let's go.

- Give me a kiss. Come on.

- Okay.

Will you tell me where

we're having dinner tonight?

- Korean barbecue.

- Really?

Okay, let's get started.

Is this part

of my investigation?

Yes. Say this blanket represents all the matter

and energy in the universe, okay?

You, me, everything.

Nothing has been left out, all right?

All the particles, everything.

- What's outside this blanket?

- More blankets. That's the point.

- Blanket's everything.

- Exactly. This is everything.

Let's just say

that this is me, all right?

And I'm, what, 60-odd years old

and I'm wearing a gray suit.

Blah, blah, blah.

And let's say over here, this is you.

And, you're-- I don't know,

you're 21 . You got dark hair, etc.

And over here, this is Vivian,

my wife and colleague.

Then over here, this is

the Eiffel tower, right? It's Paris.

And this is a war.

And this is, uh, a museum.

And this is a disease.

And this is an orgasm.

And this is a hamburger.

- Everything is the same even if it's different.

- Exactly.

But our everyday mind forgets this.

We think everything is separate.

Limited. I'm over here.

You're over there. Which is true.

But it's not the whole truth

because we're all connected.

Because we... are connected.

- Sure. Sure. Sure. Sure.

- Okay?

- Yeah.

- All right, now, we need to learn...

how to see the blanket truth

all the time.

Right in the everyday stuff.

And that's what this is for.

- Why?

- Why what?

Why do I need to learn how to see the blanket

thing all the time in the everyday stuff?

You wouldn't want to miss out

on the big picture, would you?

- Uh-uh.

- That's partly why you're here, right?

And this is it. I'm talking

about it right now.

It will take a while

for you to get it, you know?

- But... it will help you.

- [ Zipper Unzipping ]

- How?

- When you get the blanket thing you can relax...

because everything you could ever want

or be, you already have and are.

- That sound pretty good?
