Steyn:
Morning, Miss Thompson.
Kate Thompson:
Morning.
Steyn:
How are you?
Kate Thompson:
Fine, thanks. How are you?
Steyn:
Fine, thanks, and how are you?
[Mpudi groans]
Kate Thompson:
I'm fine, thank you.
Steyn:
Kate... I know you think I'm an idiot but I'm not really like that. It's only when I'm around wom... around you. I'm sorry. Normally, I'm quite normal. But whenever I'm in the presence of a lady my fingers turn into thumbs, my brain switches off...
Kate Thompson:
[Steyn drops the cup he's picked up, tries to catch it, and knocks it into Kate's face]
Watch it!
[Steyn crawls under a table to pick up the cup he's dropped, only to knock over several items on the table, including a bag of flour onto his face]
Steyn:
It's flour.
Kate Thompson:
I noticed.
Steyn:
[Tries to stand up but knocks the entire table over. He picks up the table and tries to pick up all the items and put them back on the table while he speaks, but is unsuccessful...]
It's actually... actually, it's really only an interesting psychological phenomenon. Perhaps it's some Freudian syndrome. When I brought you your shoes, I came to apologize for the stupid things I did when I met you at Mabula. To explain that I'm not as stupid as that. But then, of course, I blew it, and I... so I don't blame you if you think... but it's really only an interesting psychological. When you get to know me better, you'll see that I'm not always stumbling. It's really just an interesting psychological phenomenon.
Kate Thompson:
Yes, you are a very interesting psychological phenomenon. And I think you're very sweet.

Tell her you were
the big hero.
00:00:02.591 --> 00:00:06.094
No, I can't do that,
but I do want to talk to her.
00:00:06.094 --> 00:00:08.831
I'll tell her...
00:00:08.831 --> 00:00:12.000
I'll say,
"Look, Miss Thompson,
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:16.038
"I know you think I'm an idiot,
but normally, I'm quite normal.
00:00:16.038 --> 00:00:18.241
"It's only when I'm
in the presence of a lady
00:00:18.241 --> 00:00:20.108
"that I, uh...
00:00:20.108 --> 00:00:23.546
"It's really just an interesting
psychological phenomenon.
00:00:23.546 --> 00:00:25.548
"If a man who is susceptible
00:00:25.548 --> 00:00:28.217
"to a type of para-Freudian
syndrome like this
00:00:28.217 --> 00:00:30.686
encounters a nubile female,
what happens?"
00:00:30.686 --> 00:00:34.523
I suppose another
big word happens.
00:00:34.523 --> 00:00:36.001
Too erudite, huh?
00:00:36.001 --> 00:00:37.086
Yeah,
whatever that means.
00:00:37.086 --> 00:00:41.964
Okay. I'll put it more simply.
I'll say--
00:00:41.964 --> 00:00:43.366
"Look, Miss Thompson--
00:00:43.366 --> 00:00:46.935
"Kate, Kate.
00:00:46.935 --> 00:00:50.773
It's really only an interesting
psychological phenomenon."
00:00:50.773 --> 00:00:53.997
She'll understand that bit.
She's a schoolteacher.
00:00:53.997 --> 00:00:56.612
I'll say,
"When there's no lady present,
00:00:56.612 --> 00:00:59.315
I can catch the tiniest insect
without hurting it."
00:00:59.315 --> 00:01:00.749
If she gets to know me better,
00:01:00.749 --> 00:01:02.385
she'll see
I'm not such a stumblebum.
00:01:02.385 --> 00:01:05.997
All I need is a little practice.
If I could just--
00:01:05.997 --> 00:01:07.756
Wait for me.
You need some moral support.
00:01:27.081 --> 00:01:29.999
There she is.
00:01:33.999 --> 00:01:36.251
You better do your thing
before the pupils come.
00:01:36.251 --> 00:01:38.354
Yeah.
00:01:44.001 --> 00:01:47.033
Good morning.
00:01:47.033 --> 00:01:49.006
Morning,
Miss Thompson.
00:01:49.006 --> 00:01:51.233
Morning.
00:01:51.233 --> 00:01:53.569
How are you?
Fine, thanks. How are you?
00:01:53.569 --> 00:01:55.999
Fine, thanks,
and how are you?
00:01:56.372 --> 00:01:58.999
I'm fine, thank you.
00:02:00.443 --> 00:02:04.547
Uh, Kate, I know
you think I'm an idiot...
00:02:04.547 --> 00:02:07.075
but I'm not
really like that.
00:02:07.075 --> 00:02:10.999
It's...
only when I'm around wom--
00:02:12.002 --> 00:02:14.999
Around you. I'm sorry.
00:02:14.999 --> 00:02:17.999
Normally, I'm quite normal,
00:02:17.999 --> 00:02:19.995
but whenever
I'm in the presence of a lady,
00:02:19.995 --> 00:02:26.048
my fingers turn into thumbs,
my brain switches off.
00:02:26.048 --> 00:02:27.999
Watch it!
00:02:31.999 --> 00:02:33.001
It's flour.
00:02:33.001 --> 00:02:35.578
I noticed.
