Stop trying to walk and

walk, walk, walk! Walk!

Don't be nervous, sweetie!

When I tap my head, you take the photo.

- Do you understand?

- Yes. - Good.

Number two, you're done.

I have one series left,

and I can't waste it on you.

I'm sorry, I can get this.

No, I don't think you can.

Complete!

Thank you.

That was a good walk.

- I'm actually proud of you, honey.

- Good job.

Eadweard, this is not a good time.

Any takers?

We need examples of athleticism.

I'm looking for animals to photograph.

Well, we got lots of those, all right.

I'd like to bring this

bear to my studio nearby,

it's not far from here,

take a series of photographs,

and then bring him back,

should only take a few hours.

- How much would something like

that trouble you? - Not sure.

Would $50 suit you?

$50?

Good.

What else do you have here?

- Well, what do you want?

- Elephants? - Yes, over there.

- Tigers? Lions? Eagles?

- Yes, sir, we got 'em all.

- I will take them all, then.

- For $50?

$50 a piece.

What's your name, sir?

Noah.

Filling up my ark.

- Eadweard, what're you doing with him?

- I need a cat.

Two men fighting in a battle...

Woman falling on ground.

Lifting...

Lifting, lifting, lifting...

Log.

Man fighting.

Man dancing.

Man performing handstand.

New series.

Are we set?

Plates are set.

Electrics.

Go!

Complete.

Let's set up for a new series.

Men boxing.

What's wrong, Tadd?

- Something on the lens, sir.

- Again?

New series.

Go!

Go!

Complete.

Complete!

Complete!

Flora?

Flora...

Flora? Flora!

Flora, open the door!

How could I not know?

We'll have another.

Flora, what are you doing?

I was imagining I was in these moments.

Which?

Alaska, San Francisco,

British Columbia...

Like memory, Flora?

No.

Are you there now?

Yes.

How do we go there?

Pennsylvania isn't where

I imagined us starting.

It will only take a couple of months

to finish these studies.

Then we can go wherever you choose.

Once I get the money,

I'll take you into town.

What the heck do we

call that last series?

It's simple, Bell.

What did we just shoot?

A man walking a goat.

That's your title, then.

- "A man walking a goat."

- Yes.

What would you have next?

We have dogs and chickens, performing

mule, woman climbs ladder.

- I think it's a little arbitrary.

- Nothing is arbitrary.

- We need to get them all, all of them.

- Which one's ready?

I have no idea.

It's impossible to keep track.

How would I know

how he wants me to climb a ladder.

- I've never climbed one till now.
