boots
1238
00:09:13,769 --> 00:09:14,159:
nearly
1239
00:09:14,159 --> 00:09:14,549:
touching
1240
00:09:14,549 --> 00:09:16,169:
mine.
I
1241
00:09:16,169 --> 00:09:16,379:
have
1242
00:09:16,379 --> 00:09:16,500:
to
1243
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:16,679:
say
1244
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:17,879:
something.
1245
00:09:17,879 --> 00:09:17,940:
I
1246
00:09:17,940 --> 00:09:18,179:
want
1247
00:09:18,179 --> 00:09:18,240:
to
1248
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:18,480:
reach
1249
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:18,659:
out
1250
00:09:18,659 --> 00:09:18,750:
and
1251
00:09:18,750 --> 00:09:18,990:
shake
1252
00:09:18,990 --> 00:09:19,110:
her
1253
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:20,039:
awake.
1254
00:09:20,039 --> 00:09:20,159:
I
1255
00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:20,460:
can’t
1256
00:09:20,460 --> 00:09:20,610:
let
1257
00:09:20,610 --> 00:09:20,730:
her
1258
00:09:20,730 --> 00:09:21,000:
leave
1259
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:21,299:
without
1260
00:09:21,299 --> 00:09:23,819:
knowing.
And
1261
00:09:23,819 --> 00:09:23,879:
I
1262
00:09:23,879 --> 00:09:24,570:
think
1263
00:09:24,570 --> 00:09:24,899:
about
1264
00:09:24,899 --> 00:09:25,019:
how
1265
00:09:25,019 --> 00:09:25,230:
she
1266
00:09:25,230 --> 00:09:25,559:
said
1267
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:25,740:
she
1268
00:09:25,740 --> 00:09:25,950:
was
1269
00:09:25,950 --> 00:09:26,220:
moving
1270
00:09:26,220 --> 00:09:26,340:
to
1271
00:09:26,340 --> 00:09:26,429:
be
1272
00:09:26,429 --> 00:09:26,610:
with
1273
00:09:26,610 --> 00:09:26,730:
her
1274
00:09:26,730 --> 00:09:28,139:
mother.
1275
00:09:28,139 --> 00:09:28,259:
How
1276
00:09:28,259 --> 00:09:28,409:
she
1277
00:09:28,409 --> 00:09:28,710:
talked
1278
00:09:28,710 --> 00:09:28,889:
about
1279
00:09:28,889 --> 00:09:29,250:
missing
1280
00:09:29,250 --> 00:09:30,750:
home.
1281
00:09:30,750 --> 00:09:30,870:
How
1282
00:09:30,870 --> 00:09:31,110:
she
1283
00:09:31,110 --> 00:09:31,230:
had
1284
00:09:31,230 --> 00:09:31,529:
felt
1285
00:09:31,529 --> 00:09:31,950:
cooped
1286
00:09:31,950 --> 00:09:32,279:
up,
1287
00:09:32,279 --> 00:09:32,759:
trapped
1288
00:09:32,759 --> 00:09:33,059:
behind
1289
00:09:33,059 --> 00:09:33,149:
the
1290
00:09:33,149 --> 00:09:34,320:
mountains,
1291
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:34,440:
how
1292
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:34,649:
she
1293
00:09:34,649 --> 00:09:35,009:
longed
1294
00:09:35,009 --> 00:09:35,129:
for
1295
00:09:35,129 --> 00:09:35,250:
the
1296
00:09:35,250 --> 00:09:35,639:
freedom
1297
00:09:35,639 --> 00:09:35,759:

1298
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:36,000:
clear
1299
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,399:
skies.
I
1300
00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:38,700:
want
1301
00:09:38,700 --> 00:09:38,820:

1303
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:39,210:

1304
00:09:39,210 --> 00:09:39,389:
her,
1305
00:09:39,389 --> 00:09:39,480:
to
1306
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:39,809:

1307
00:09:39,809 --> 00:09:39,960:
with
1308
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:40,110:
her
1309
00:09:40,110 --> 00:09:40,169:

1310
00:09:40,169 --> 00:09:40,259:
her
1311
00:09:40,259 --> 00:09:40,620:
mother’s
1312
00:09:40,620 --> 00:09:41,879:
cabin.
1313
00:09:41,879 --> 00:09:41,970:
To

00:09:41,970 --> 00:09:42,240:

1315
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:42,360:

stars
1317
00:09:42,750 --> 00:09:42,840:

1318
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:42,990:
way
1319
00:09:42,990 --> 00:09:43,289:
she
1320
00:09:43,289 --> 00:09:43,649:
sees
1321
00:09:43,649 --> 00:09:43,799:
them,
1322
00:09:43,799 --> 00:09:43,919:
to
1323
00:09:43,919 --> 00:09:44,070:
hear
1324
00:09:44,070 --> 00:09:44,639:
songs
1325
00:09:44,639 --> 00:09:44,759:
the
1326
00:09:44,759 --> 00:09:44,909:
way
1327
00:09:44,909 --> 00:09:45,210:
she
1328
00:09:45,210 --> 00:09:45,629:
hears
1329
00:09:45,629 --> 00:09:46,710:
them.
1330
00:09:46,710 --> 00:09:46,799:
To
1331
00:09:46,799 --> 00:09:47,070:
feel
1332
00:09:47,070 --> 00:09:47,250:
her
1333
00:09:47,250 --> 00:09:47,730:
pain,
1334
00:09:47,730 --> 00:09:47,820:
and
1335
00:09:47,820 --> 00:09:47,940:
her
1336
00:09:47,940 --> 00:09:49,200:
belonging,
1337
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:49,320:
and
1338
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:49,500:

1340
00:09:49,860 --> 00:09:49,980:
and
1341
00:09:49,980 --> 00:09:50,100:
her
1342
00:09:50,100 --> 00:09:52,379:
pride.
I
1343
00:09:52,379 --> 00:09:52,620:
look
1344
00:09:52,620 --> 00:09:52,830:
out
1345
00:09:52,830 --> 00:09:52,919:

00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:53,309:
window
1347
00:09:53,309 --> 00:09:55,200:
again.
1348
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:55,379:
I
1349
00:09:55,379 --> 00:09:55,710:
feel
1350
00:09:55,710 --> 00:09:55,860:
my
1351
00:09:55,860 --> 00:09:56,159:
mouth
1352
00:09:56,159 --> 00:09:56,399:
open,
1353
00:09:56,399 --> 00:09:56,610:
and
1354
00:09:56,610 --> 00:09:56,730:
I
1355
00:09:56,730 --> 00:09:56,970:
sit
1356
00:09:56,970 --> 00:09:57,121:
there
1357
00:09:57,121 --> 00:09:57,179:
a
1358
00:09:57,179 --> 00:09:57,630:
moment,
1359
00:09:57,630 --> 00:09:58,350:
agape,
1360
00:09:58,350 --> 00:09:58,500:
like
1361
00:09:58,500 --> 00:09:58,740:
some
1362
00:09:58,740 --> 00:09:59,399:
goldfish
1363
00:09:59,399 --> 00:09:59,490:
in
1364
00:09:59,490 --> 00:09:59,549:
a
1365
00:09:59,549 --> 00:10:00,000:
dentist’s
1366
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,629:
office.
1367
00:10:00,629 --> 00:10:03,080:
Floating.
Then
1368
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:03,169:
I
1369
00:10:03,169 --> 00:10:03,350:
hear
1370
00:10:03,350 --> 00:10:03,769:
myself
1371
00:10:03,769 --> 00:10:06,259:
speak.
“I’m
1372
00:10:06,259 --> 00:10:08,750:
lost.”
She
1373
00:10:08,750 --> 00:10:09,110:
doesn’t
1374
00:10:09,110 --> 00:10:11,539:
stir.
“I
1375
00:10:11,539 --> 00:10:11,809:
don’t
1376
00:10:11,809 --> 00:10:12,019:
know
1377
00:10:12,019 --> 00:10:12,230:
where
1378
00:10:12,230 --> 00:10:12,409:
I’m
1379
00:10:12,409 --> 00:10:12,860:
going,
1380
00:10:12,860 --> 00:10:13,009:
I’m
1381
00:10:13,009 --> 00:10:14,629:
just…
1382
00:10:14,629 --> 00:10:17,570:
empty.”
I
1383
00:10:17,570 --> 00:10:17,779:
feel
1384
00:10:17,779 --> 00:10:18,200:
pressure
1385
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:18,470:
starting
1386
00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:18,590:
to
1387
00:10:18,590 --> 00:10:18,889:
rise
1388
00:10:18,889 --> 00:10:19,159:
behind
1389
00:10:19,159 --> 00:10:19,309:
my
1390
00:10:19,309 --> 00:10:19,639:
eyes,
1391
00:10:19,639 --> 00:10:19,789:
but
1392
00:10:19,789 --> 00:10:19,850:
I
1393
00:10:19,850 --> 00:10:20,059:
can’t
1394
00:10:20,059 --> 00:10:20,330:
stop
1395
00:10:20,330 --> 00:10:22,159:
myself.
“It’s
1396
00:10:22,159 --> 00:10:22,309:
like
1397
00:10:22,309 --> 00:10:22,460:
I’m
1398
00:10:22,460 --> 00:10:22,789:

something,
1401
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:24,649:
grieving,
1402
00:10:24,649 --> 00:10:24,769:

what
1407
00:10:25,460 --> 00:10:26,899:
for.
1408
00:10:26,899 --> 00:10:27,049:
All
1409
00:10:27,049 --> 00:10:27,169:
the
1410
00:10:27,169 --> 00:10:27,380:
time
1411
00:10:27,380 --> 00:10:27,469:
I

00:10:30,049 --> 00:10:30,513:
something that
1419
00:10:30,513 --> 00:10:30,649:
will
1420
00:10:30,649 --> 00:10:30,919:
fill

And

never

2051
00:15:34,970 --> 00:15:35,659:
In

00:15:35,659 --> 00:15:36,559:
hindsight,
2053
00:15:36,559 --> 00:15:36,769:
that

00:15:36,769 --> 00:15:37,100:
character
2055
00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:37,309:
was
2056
00:15:37,309 --> 00:15:37,730:
a method of

different?
2065
00:15:42,110 --> 00:15:42,409:
Now
2066
00:15:42,409 --> 00:15:42,500:
I
2067
00:15:42,500 --> 00:15:42,710:

As

That

2116
00:16:06,289 --> 00:16:06,470:
The

00:16:07,580 --> 00:16:07,759:

all

00:16:13,070 --> 00:16:13,519:

00:16:13,519 --> 00:16:14,059:

00:16:14,059 --> 00:16:14,179:
with

00:16:14,179 --> 00:16:14,240:

After

writing

I

00:16:22,789 --> 00:16:24,200:
paused.
2149
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:24,350:
Though
2150
00:16:24,350 --> 00:16:24,529:
I’d
2151
00:16:24,529 --> 00:16:24,919:
begun

00:16:24,919 --> 00:16:25,039:
the

2158
00:16:26,059 --> 00:16:26,149:
of

2160
00:16:26,750 --> 00:16:27,259:
mashing
2161
00:16:27,259 --> 00:16:27,904:
backspace on
2162
00:16:27,904 --> 00:16:28,039:

2164
00:16:28,490 --> 00:16:28,879:
countless
2165
00:16:28,879 --> 00:16:29,779:
times,
2166
00:16:29,779 --> 00:16:29,870:
it
2167
00:16:29,870 --> 00:16:30,019:
was
2168
00:16:30,019 --> 00:16:30,500:
much
2169
00:16:30,500 --> 00:16:31,009:
easier
2170
00:16:31,009 --> 00:16:31,100:
to

00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:31,580:
describe
2172
00:16:31,580 --> 00:16:31,970:
that

00:16:31,970 --> 00:16:32,899:
shoebill.
2174
00:16:32,899 --> 00:16:33,019:
The
2175
00:16:33,019 --> 00:16:33,409:
words
2176
00:16:33,409 --> 00:16:33,679:

2177
00:16:33,679 --> 00:16:33,799:

00:16:34,159 --> 00:16:35,330:
effortlessly,

00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:35,990:
them
2183
00:16:35,990 --> 00:16:36,649:
felt
2184
00:16:36,649 --> 00:16:37,309:
physically
2185
00:16:37,309 --> 00:16:37,730:
different,
2186
00:16:37,730 --> 00:16:38,960:
too.
2187
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:39,350:
Instead
2188
00:16:39,350 --> 00:16:39,440:

I
2196
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:42,169:
began
2197
00:16:42,169 --> 00:16:42,529:
treating
2198
00:16:42,529 --> 00:16:42,679:
them
2199
00:16:42,679 --> 00:16:43,129:
more
2200
00:16:43,129 --> 00:16:44,210:
gently,
2201
00:16:44,210 --> 00:16:44,809:
almost
2202
00:16:44,809 --> 00:16:45,259:

so
2217
00:16:50,149 --> 00:16:51,320:
difficult–a

for
2221
00:16:52,490 --> 00:16:54,379:
perfection–but
2222
00:16:54,379 --> 00:16:54,680:
not
2223
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,330:
now. I
2224
00:16:56,330 --> 00:16:56,570:
felt
2225
00:16:56,570 --> 00:16:56,690:
like
2226
00:16:56,690 --> 00:16:56,779:
I
2227
00:16:56,779 --> 00:16:56,990:
could

00:16:58,940 --> 00:16:59,360:
freed

2242
00:17:02,419 --> 00:17:02,990:

00:17:03,049 --> 00:17:06,349:
effusive.
Confused,
2245
00:17:06,349 --> 00:17:06,500:
I
2246
00:17:06,500 --> 00:17:06,710:
looked
2247
00:17:06,710 --> 00:17:07,069:
down
2248
00:17:07,069 --> 00:17:07,160:
at
2249
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:07,220:
the
2250
00:17:07,220 --> 00:17:08,809:
keyboard.
2251
00:17:08,809 --> 00:17:09,259:
Nothing
2252
00:17:09,259 --> 00:17:10,279:
seemed
2253
00:17:10,279 --> 00:17:12,259:
unusual.
2254
00:17:12,259 --> 00:17:12,410:
But
2255
00:17:12,410 --> 00:17:12,589:
as
2256
00:17:12,589 --> 00:17:12,710:
I
2257
00:17:12,710 --> 00:17:13,069:
moved
2258
00:17:13,069 --> 00:17:13,160:

2259
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:13,640:

2260
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:13,849:
my

00:17:13,849 --> 00:17:14,750:
chin,
2262
00:17:14,750 --> 00:17:14,869:
I
2263
00:17:14,869 --> 00:17:15,170:
caught
2264
00:17:15,170 --> 00:17:15,440:
sight
2265
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:15,529:

2270
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:17,150:
and
2271
00:17:17,150 --> 00:17:18,710:
gasped.
2272
00:17:18,710 --> 00:17:18,950:
From
2273
00:17:18,950 --> 00:17:19,069:

2284
00:17:24,769 --> 00:17:25,579:
Instead
2285
00:17:25,579 --> 00:17:26,029:
there lay a

2288
00:17:26,869 --> 00:17:26,960:

inspection
2299
00:17:32,750 --> 00:17:33,859:
confirmed:

00:17:36,230 --> 00:17:37,819:
gone.
2307
00:17:37,819 --> 00:17:38,089:
In their

00:17:38,089 --> 00:17:39,470:

2310
00:17:41,420 --> 00:17:41,539:
I
2311
00:17:41,539 --> 00:17:42,200:

how
2316
00:17:43,309 --> 00:17:43,400:
I’d

this

00:17:44,059 --> 00:17:44,150:
to

2321
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:44,569:

what
2326
00:17:46,099 --> 00:17:46,220:
could
2327
00:17:46,220 --> 00:17:46,339:
have

00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:46,789:
me

00:17:46,789 --> 00:17:46,880:

2333
00:17:47,750 --> 00:17:47,839:

2337
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:50,089:
But

00:17:50,089 --> 00:17:50,240:
as
2339

sense
2343
00:17:51,319 --> 00:17:51,410:

00:17:52,549 --> 00:17:52,700:
my
2346
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:53,089:
panic
2347
00:17:53,089 --> 00:17:55,609:
abated. “Maybe

2352
00:17:57,589 --> 00:17:59,119:
