【Transcript】(For reference only)--jmmom
Last year, I spent 322 days on the road. I flew 350,000 miles. The moon is 250. All the things you probably hate about traveling are warm reminders that I am home.
Welcome back, Mr. Bingham.
I work for a company that lends me out to cowards that don't have the courage to sack their own employees and for a good reason.
Who are you, man?
Because people do crazy stuff when they get fired.
I’m gonna need your key card.
We've received a dynamite young woman from Cornell--Natalie Keena.
I want you to show her the ropes.
I am not a tour guide.
This is the boat. This is you. You want to be in the boat?
Yeah, alone.
Show her the magic. Take her through paces.
What?
Follow me.
Never get behind old people. Their bodies are littered with hidden
metal and they never seem to appreciate how little time they have left.
Bingo! Asians, they pack light, travel efficiently and they got a thing
for slip-on shoes. God! Love 'em!
That's racist.
I'm like my grandmother--I stereotype. It’s faster.
You've gotta fill me in on the miles thing. What is that about?
I’ve flown and grabbed as many miles as I can.
What did you tell her? Is this big?
Um, uh.
This big?
I don't want to brag.
This is pretty sexy. We're two people who get turned on by elite status.
Good call on that towel.
Shame we didn't make it to the closet.
Umm, we've gotta do this again.
What kind of relationship do you have?
You know that moment when you look into somebody's eyes and you can
feel them staring into your soul, the whole world goes quiet?
Yes.
Right, well, I don't.
You're awfully isolated the way you live.
Isolated? I’m surrounded.
Aren't you supposed to be consoling me?
I'm a wake-up call. This is a rebirth.
You have a style of a way of life that basically makes it impossible for you to have any kind of human connection.
You're grounded. Everybody's grounded.
They're pulling us off the road; we are going home.
If you think about it, your relationships are the heaviest components
in your life, your husband, your wife, your home. We weigh ourselves
down until we can't even move. Make no mistake: living is living.
I’m not really sure how long his watch is supposed to last.
No, I don't even think of him that way. He's old.
Note:
"The moon is 250": I think he is talking about the distance between
the moon and the earth is about 250,000 miles (238,857 to 252,088 miles
to be exact).
the ropes: all the things someone needs to know to do a job or deal with a system.
fill in: to supply (someone) with information. |
