What do you mean
by that?

Nothing. All I meant
was nobody's indispensable.

You can write it down there.
704 Hauser Street.

528
00:22:26,278 --> 00:22:29,412
Uh, hold it, Archie,
I don't have a pen.

529
00:22:29,414 --> 00:22:31,315
Oh, well, I got one
over here, John,

530
00:22:31,317 --> 00:22:33,851
but, jeez, I can't reach it
with the pain.

531
00:22:33,853 --> 00:22:35,853
Okay, Archie, I'll get it.

532
00:22:37,421 --> 00:22:39,256
And they let you
get out of bed, huh?

533
00:22:39,258 --> 00:22:40,423
<i>Certainement.</i>

534
00:22:40,425 --> 00:22:42,559
They say I should walk
a little now every day.

535
00:22:42,561 --> 00:22:45,695
[MOANS]
Oh, lucky you.

536
00:22:45,697 --> 00:22:46,563
Ready.

537
00:23:03,547 --> 00:23:04,481
Who are you?

538
00:23:09,287 --> 00:23:10,854
Jean Duval.

539
00:23:12,323 --> 00:23:13,891
Wait a minute,
wait a minute.

540
00:23:13,893 --> 00:23:16,793
Wait a minute!

541
00:23:16,795 --> 00:23:18,362
You said
you was a Frenchman.

542
00:23:18,364 --> 00:23:19,229
<i>Oui.</i>

543
00:23:20,765 --> 00:23:22,366
Well, you didn't tell me
you was black.

544
00:23:22,368 --> 00:23:24,067
You didn't tell me
you was white.

545
00:23:28,006 --> 00:23:30,107
Well, white people
don't have to go around

546
00:23:30,109 --> 00:23:33,043
telling other people that.

547
00:23:33,045 --> 00:23:36,179
I shall remember that
for future reference.

548
00:23:36,181 --> 00:23:37,981
Oh, nurse.

549
00:23:37,983 --> 00:23:39,182
Nurse, hey, nurse.

550
00:23:39,184 --> 00:23:41,218
Archie, we can't
find Dr. Spence.

551
00:23:41,220 --> 00:23:43,086
Oh, I don't care nothing
about Dr. Spence

552
00:23:43,088 --> 00:23:44,187
or this hospital!

553
00:23:44,189 --> 00:23:45,588
I'm getting
the hell out of here!

554
00:23:45,590 --> 00:23:46,589
I'm going back to work!

555
00:23:46,591 --> 00:23:47,991
Archie!
Look, Archie.

556
00:23:47,993 --> 00:23:49,859
Look, he's
moving around!

557
00:23:49,861 --> 00:23:51,228
I told you, psychosomatic!

558
00:23:51,230 --> 00:23:52,229
ARCHIE:
Ah...

559
00:23:52,231 --> 00:23:54,664
You! Psycho, psycho...

560
00:23:54,666 --> 00:23:56,266
You and this guy ought
to get together

561
00:23:56,268 --> 00:23:57,267
and make a record.

562
00:23:57,269 --> 00:23:59,469
No, no, no, no, no.
He is right.

563
00:23:59,471 --> 00:24:01,805
Your illness was psychosomatic.
It is, in fact.

564
00:24:01,807 --> 00:24:04,374
But that is not what got you
up on your feet again.

565
00:24:04,376 --> 00:24:05,375
Huh?

566
00:24:05,377 --> 00:24:08,711
It was...that old black magic.

567
00:24:27,531 --> 00:24:28,966
