Usually she would stop

What was it?
Whatlliked?
Spaetzles.
Oh, God.
You've had spaetzles?
Oh, sure.
You like them?
I love them.
You love spaetzles.
- Anyway, everyone is unhappy now.
- Uh-huh.
My father doesn't seem
too fond of me.
I'm not sure
if he ever was, but-
So one night I say
I'm going to the movies,
and instead,
I go to Europe.
What movie?
The Wild Bunch,
I think. Why?
Did you call them?
- Not until I got there. And I called collect.
- Europe?
- That is-
- Yeah.
- Good for you.
- Yeah.
Why did you ask me
which movie?
That is fabulous.
- That's the story.
- Oh, wow.
Then I came back
when my dad died.
Somebody call
about the ice machine?
- Tom.
- Hmm?
- This is Peter.
- Hi.
How do you do?
But I was only
in the party...
for two months.
- I've never known a communist.
- Socialist.
Socialist.
It was a strange time.
So what was
Amsterdam like?
Do you speak Dutch?
Ja.
Say something in Dutch.
Je hebt erg witte tanden.
What's that?
You have very
white teeth.
Oh, thank you.
Now you say,
"Om je beter
mee op teeten. "
Wait.
Okay.
What is it?
Om je beter
mee op teeten.
"Om me. "
- Beter.
- Beter.
- Mee op teeten.
- Mee op teeten.
Om je beter
mee op teeten.
Great.
You 've got a good ear.
- Oh, good ear, clean teeth.
- You do.
What did I say?
- I can't tell you.
- I knew you were gonna say that.
- I knew it.
- No. It's untranslatable.
I'm sure it is.
I'll tell you someday.
I will. I promise.
When you're first getting
to know someone...
and in that blissful, psychotic
first flush of love,
of their personality-
their whole demeanor, the simple
lovely twist of their ear lobes,
and their marvelous
phone voice,
and their soft,
dark, wet... whatever...
is somehow imbued
with an extra push of color-
an intensity heretofore,
you know, unknown.
You want a Molson?
- You drink Molson?
- Uh -huh.
In your own home?
I've been known to.
So why can't you sleep?
I want to solve this.
I wasn't exaggerating.
It's been since I was 14.
Aha.
That's a lot
of journal - keeping.
# Every time #
# We say good-bye #
# I die a little #
Have you seen doctors?
I've seen all the doctors.
Uh-huh.
- Right.
- And I've in gested countless pills and liquids.
- Thank you.
I've seen an acupuncturist.
You did?
What did it feel like?
Little needles in your back.
- It hurt?
- Sometimes.
You're really beautiful.
You are.
Thank you.
That's, uh-
Thank you.
What do you do
for a living?
# There's no love song finer #
