Dan：Is he serious?

Edith：If he is, I'm sorry to say he's- Oh, how could he have concealed that for ten years?

Harry：Least he doesn't appear to be dangerous.

Dan：What are you doing?

Harry：Checkin' for a hidden mic.Candid camera.

Art：（打电话给Will）He's fabricating these wild stories.I've never seen him acting like this.Oh, it's crazy.All right, all right,as soon as you can, then.

屋外

Sandy：I love you, you know.

John：I know.

Sandy：Since my first week at the office.（John无言低头）And?

John：I care very much about you,but now you know what you'd be getting into.

Sandy：Do you really think you're a caveman?

John：Do you?

Sandy：（沉默片刻）Could you love me,or don't you believe in that anymore?

John：I've gotten over it too many times.Fond of you- certainly attracted to you.

Sandy：That's it?

John：...

Sandy：I can work with that.

John：If what I'm saying is true,you and any children will age.I won't.And one day I'll leave.

Sandy：You'll go back to your May-December romances.

John：The simple fact is that I can't give you forever.

Sandy：How long's forever?Who ever really has it?  My parents split up before I was born,And then my mom's next marriage lasted what, a whole three years?Then there's death,illness,acts of god...No one knows how long they have.Or how little.I love you.Take whatever you can get.

John：Like ten years?

Sandy：...

（两人回屋）

Harry：（偷袭John反被制服）Ah! Ha ha ha!  Uhn! Oh.

John：Why did you do that?

Harry：I wanted to see how fast you were. Check your reflexes.

John：I don't have eyes in the back of my head,I can't hear a flea walking,I am not in any way superman.

Harry：Well, I'm a second-degree black belt.

John：Give it another thousand years.

（伸手扶Harry起来）

Harry：Well. I got it, I got it, I got it.

Dan：Smooth demonstration, Harry.

Harry：Sit on it, Dan.

Linda：I still have questions.

Art：Yeah,l- I do too, John.I mean, are we done with prehistory yet?Remember any of your original language?

John：A little. One thing hasn't changed much- （向Sandy吹口哨）

Linda：Did you ever do any cave art?

John：Do you know the rock art at Les Eyzies?

Linda：Mm-Hmm.

John：It was the work of a man named... Giraud.He did a pretty good job.He would draw the animals that we hoped to find to eat.One day after a fruitless hunt,our chief stomped his teeth out because his magic had failed him.After that, someone had to chew his food for him.Finally, he got- I suspect- an infected jaw,and he was abandoned.

Edith：That's awful.

John：You have to know what to kill.
