ON-SCREEN - one of George's early stand-up specials. He's so young and naive, he seems like a completely different person. George sits on his couch watching videos of himself, reviewing his life, trying to make sense of what it all meant. We see clips of him on Conan and hosting MTV Spring Break.
ON-SCREEN - home video of George at college. George is hanging out with his friends. They are acting goofy, having the time of their lives. George looks very young, skinny,
and carefree. Life has never been better.

ANGLE ON George watching silently. He has no idea what to make of this journey of his.

INT. GEORGE’S HOUSE - LATER
George sits in his office, surrounded by photos and magazine clippings of himself at different ages. It builds to a sequence of him going through stacks of old photos.
He comes to candid photos of a young woman. This is LAURA, in her mid-twenties. George flips through photos, lost in the memory of her.

GEORGE
I was just wondering if you had a few minutes? I wanted to talk to you about something.
私はあなたが数分持っていないか丁度、考えていた。→ 少しばかりお時間がありませんか。かなりもって回った遠慮がちな表現。昔、自分が振った彼女に電話しているから。このような表現も面白いと思う。
ちょっと話したいことがあるのだが。 これも、遠慮がちな表現。

INTERCUT WITH:
EXT. MARIN STREETS - SAME
We see Laura, a very pretty woman in her mid-30s, the same woman from the photos and video. She walks down a suburban street alone, on her cell phone.

Actually I don't. I was just walking out the door. Is it okay if I get your number and call you back later?
「実際に今は（時間が）ない。私は今外出したところです。あなたの電話番号を教えてくれたら、あとで電話するけど」
今外出したところです という表現。このように言うのか、と思った。
actuallyはよく使うから。このようなタイミングで使うのだな、と。

I know I'm not supposed to call you, I just wanted to let you know that... I really am so sorry for everything. I'm sorry I screwed it up.

You don't have to call me back, I know you're not going to. I just wanted to let you know I was sorry one more time.
