Dr. Frederick Steele:
[Out to dinner, after Judith has inadvertently learned the truth about her health]
Would you mind telling me what this is all about? Judith:
Why don't you tell me? Why *didn't* you tell me? [looks at the menu briefly] Judith:
Well I, I think I'll have a large order of *prognosis negative*! Ann King:
What do you mean? Judith:
You know, monsieur, s'il vous plaît. 'Prognosis negative'. You know what 'prognosis negative' means, doctor? Explain to her, or have you? It means a few months of pretending you're well, then blindness, then... Ann King:
Wait, Judith, we can't talk in here. Judith:
Oh yes we can. It was a question of humoring the patient, wasn't it? Give the poor dear anything she wants - time's so short, marry her if necessary. I know now why you went to his office that day: to beg him to marry me out of pity. You're kind, Dr. Steele, you're *both* so kind. So long my friends! [Frederick and Ann try to stop her, but she storms out of the restaurant]

Shall we order? Waiter.
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:05.275
Would you mind telling me
what this is all about?
00:00:05.044 --> 00:00:07.317
Why don't you tell me?
00:00:07.048 --> 00:00:09.789
Why didn't you tell me?
00:00:10.068 --> 00:00:11.908
Well, l... .
00:00:12.008 --> 00:00:15.197
I think I'll have a large order
of "prognosis negative."
00:00:16.064 --> 00:00:20.474
- What do you mean?
- You know. Prognosis negative.
00:00:20.064 --> 00:00:22.596
Do you know what
prognosis negative means?
00:00:23.028 --> 00:00:25.271
Explain to her. Or have you?
00:00:25.092 --> 00:00:29.999
Means a few months of pretending
you're well, then blindness, then...
00:00:29.002 --> 00:00:31.111
Wait, Judith. We can't talk in here.
00:00:31.028 --> 00:00:34.397
Oh, yes, we can. It was a question of
humoring the patient.
00:00:34.056 --> 00:00:39.554
Give the poor dear everything she wants.
Time's so short. Marry her if necessary.
00:00:39.072 --> 00:00:44.111
I know why you went to his office that
day. To beg him to marry me out of pity.
00:00:44.028 --> 00:00:47.075
The kind Dr. Steele. You're both so kind.
So long, my friends.
00:00:48.998 --> 00:00:49.752
Judith, you're wrong.
00:00:52.092 --> 00:00:57.755
Let my heart be still
And listen to one song of love
00:00:57.092 --> 00:01:00.275
Let me feel the thrill
00:01:00.044 --> 00:01:03.352
Of quiet we know nothing of
00:01:03.052 --> 00:01:08.031
Oh, give me time for tenderness
00:01:08.048 --> 00:01:12.678
To hold your hand
And understand
00:01:12.084 --> 00:01:18.233
Oh, give me time
00:01:21.999 --> 00:01:24.006
It's 4:00, sir. Last drink.
00:01:24.002 --> 00:01:27.999
- Two here, two there. Same thing.
- Yes, sir.
00:01:27.036 --> 00:01:29.003
- It's funny.
- What?
00:01:29.084 --> 00:01:31.751
Time, Alec.
00:01:31.092 --> 00:01:34.048
Did you ever think about time?
00:01:34.064 --> 00:01:36.232
It goes, Alec.
00:01:36.001 --> 00:01:38.001
That's the business of time.
00:01:38.056 --> 00:01:41.916
Tick, tick, tick.
00:01:42.072 --> 00:01:45.678
You can almost hear it go by.
00:01:45.084 --> 00:01:48.559
Before you know it, it's gone.
00:01:48.088 --> 00:01:53.067
- Then where are we, my friend?
- High and dry. That's the last drink.
00:01:55.016 --> 00:01:58.003
- I want to hear that song again.
- What song?
00:01:58.999 --> 00:02:00.435
That song about time.
