You signed the NCNR clause here.

It's non-cancelable, non-returnable.

No.

What if everyone was doing that?

We wouldn't be in business,

would we?

Hello?

Oh, Hi, Andrea. Yeah, hi.

Uh-

Mm-hmm.

Andrea wants to see us this

weekend.

Hmm.

Are you sick? You're very pale.

Nah. Just the usual stuff. I 'm fine.

You need to look after yourself.

How is Uncle Vanya?

Can we not talk about that?

I see my feet.

I see my feet.

I have...

feet.

How do I know they're mine?

That's a silly question, Paul.

Feet are tied to your legs.

Legs... tied to your torso.

You control it.

Eh.

If I have this body...

- I must be something else.

- Mmm.

Is that something new youre

working on?

- What's up? What's going on?

- You feel strange.

- Strange?

- Your skin.

What about it?

Mmm, scaly maybe.

Scaly? What do you mean-

What do you mean, scaly?

Like a lizard or something?

Well, maybe it's just dry.

What's wrong?

Just making me

feel like a lizard doesn't really help,

hon.

I just sit there and I talk to her.

You know, uh, she can't hear me.

I mean, we, um- we tried

the cortex, uh, stimulation.

But nothing, you know.

Oh, I just feel so impotent.

You know, I mean...

I just don't know what the right

decision is.

Your brother should be part of this.

- You can't carry all this weight on

your own.

- Cynthia.

Every day I ask myself, what should

we do?

Why don't you just unplug her?

What?

Are you out of your mind?

Why would you say that?

- What did I say?

- What do you mean, what did you

say?

She was asking for advice.

She clearly doesn't know what to do.

A-And the conversation just goes on

and on.

Uh, and I'm sitting there,

and no one says anything...

and it's gonna go on for hours

if nobody says anything.

- You think it's easier

just to hurt her feelings like that?

- Oh, come on.

I had no intention of

hurting anybody's feelings.

What was all that celery munching

about?

What celery munching? What?

Why are you so upset about this?

What did I do?

I can't believe we're fighting

about a celery stick.

Paul, what is going on with you?

The rain is ending.

Oh, well,

everything will be refreshed and

breathe.

Except for me.

No, no.

No, I'll be the only one

not refreshed by the storm.

Oh, day and night a demon oppresses

me...

and I feel that my life was wasted...

that I squandered the past

on nonsense, nonsense.

And the present, the present-

Well, it's right here.

It's absurd.

Here is my life and my love.

What did I do?

Can I renounce this?

No. No.

My one true feeling in life...

and it's fading away, like-

at the bottom of a mine shaft.

Uh, when I think of your-
