00:00I remember my mother and father, but I can't picture them.
00:07You see, I was taken away from them when I was very young.
00:12And told that someday I would see them again.
00:16But that was a lie.
00:19The doctors and nurses here.
00:23They want to give you hope.
00:27That one day you can leave here.
00:33But you deserve someone to show you mercy.
00:38How different I would be if someone had.
00:44Looking good today, Meldrick.
00:51Ladies and gentlemen, you're about to witness history.
00:56I present to you the lobotomy.
01:00Juvenile distraction.
01:02Lesbianism.
01:03Mania.
01:04All of these maladies can be reversed.
01:07But then, aren't we playing God?
01:11Aren't we saying there's one feeling that's right, and another feeling that's wrong?
01:19Well, there are rights, and there are wrongs.
01:25I want to be normal.
01:26I believe that.
01:27I believe there are some things that are worse to feel than simply feeling nothing.
01:31Try your tears.
01:32There will be no death today.
01:33I'm going to help you.
01:35I don't know what you're after.
01:36I don't know what you're after.
01:37I'm going to help you.
01:38I don't know what you're after.
01:39But I will not stand for this.
01:40If I were you, I would choose my life.
01:41I don't know what you're after.
01:42I don't know what you're after.
01:43But I will not stand for this.
01:44If I were you, I would choose my next words very carefully.
02:12Allow me to warn you that you have found yourself in the most unenviable of positions.
02:26Oh, I beg to differ.
02:31People like us, places like this, are maybe where we belong.
02:42I don't know what people like.
02:43I can't explain anything but I can't explain nothing.
02:46I just want to ask for that.
02:48No doubt.
02:50Don't try or not understand anything because...
02:52I don't know if you're after that.
02:53I think...
02:54I could tell you and I just want to ask for a few questions.
02:58If you're after that, which I want to ask for the other questions,
03:01I would be after that.
03:03The question is, how will I think about the questions?
