It All Comes Back (Opening) - Michael Cerveris/Sydney Lucas.mp3

[00:12.05]Daddy!
[00:15.92]Hey, Daddy, come here, okay?
[00:17.76]I need you.
[00:19.75]What are you doing?
[00:20.92]I said come here.
[00:22.17]You need to do what I tell you to do.
[00:24.97]Listen to me.
[00:26.03]Daddy!
[00:26.94]Come here!
[00:27.70]Hey, right here!
[00:28.72]Right now!
[00:29.48]You’re making mad.
[00:30.71]Listen to me.
[00:31.69]Listen to me.
[00:33.78]Listen to me....
[00:36.34]I wanna play airplane.
[00:40.05]I wanna play airplane.
[00:42.72]I wanna play airplane!
[00:46.96]I wanna put my arms out and fly...
[00:49.61]Like the Red Baron in the Sopwith Camel!
[00:51.84]No, wait—
[00:52.63]Like Superman!
[00:54.24]Up in the sky
[00:56.22]Till I can see all of Pennsylvania...
[01:00.93]Hey! Gimme a hand.
[01:02.10]What’d you get, Daddy?
[01:03.29]Right, right right.
[01:04.60]It’s from Clyde Gibbon’s barn. What a haul!
[01:07.21]He said, “Take what you want.”
[01:08.82]I said, “Clyde, are you sure?”
[01:10.24]He said, “It’s all junk to me.”
[01:11.70]I said, “Okay, Clyde, okay!”
[01:13.66]C’mon. Take a look.
[01:15.72]You go to auctions,
[01:18.02]yard sales, comb the dump.
[01:19.67]There’s crap, there’s crap,
[01:22.33]there’s— hey.
[01:24.61]What’s this?
[01:26.61]More crap?
[01:28.31]No.
[01:29.22][sung] Linen!
[01:31.07]This is linen!
[01:34.02]Gorgeous Irish linen!
[01:36.58]See how I can tell?
[01:38.86]Right here,
[01:40.47]this floating thread, you see
[01:42.30]That’s what makes it damask.
[01:45.58]And the weight, the weight, this drape!
[01:48.64]And the pattern, crisp and clear!
[01:51.55]See how it’s made from
[01:53.48]Matte and shine?
[01:54.51]It’s tattered here, but all the rest—
[01:56.76]How beautiful!
[01:58.52]How fine!
[02:01.21]Okay, okay. What else?
[02:03.67]Crap... crap... dead mouse...
[02:09.82]Ooh, can I have it?
[02:10.90]It’s all yours.
[02:13.52]What’s this?
[02:16.02]Silver?
[02:19.00]Is this silver?
[02:22.25]Is this junk, or silver?
[02:24.64]With polish, we can tell.
[02:26.56]I love how tarnish melts away,
[02:30.00]Opening to luster.
[02:33.17]And the mark, is there a mark?
[02:36.12]Yes, this stamp, you see? Right here!
[02:38.77]That’s how the craftsman leaves a sign
[02:42.28]That he was here and made his work
[02:44.60]So beautiful,
[02:46.15]So fine...
[02:49.23]This has traveled continents to get here,
[02:52.06]And crossed an ocean of time,
[02:54.59]And somehow landed in this box
[02:57.15]Under a layer of grime.
[02:59.70]I can’t abide romantic notions
[03:02.14]Of some vague long ago.
[03:04.69]I want to know what’s true,
[03:06.11]Dig deep into who
[03:07.32]And what
[03:08.08]And why
[03:08.76]And when
[03:09.38]Until now gives way to then.
[03:18.60]Did you ever imagine I’d hang on to your stuff, Dad?
[03:22.71]Me either.
[03:24.20]But I guess I always knew
[03:26.15]that someday I was going to draw you...
[03:28.60]In cartoons.
[03:30.02]Yes, Dad, I know.
[03:32.34]You think cartoons are silly.
[03:33.83]But I draw cartoons,
[03:35.51]and I need real things to draw from,
[03:38.32]‘cause I don’t trust memory.
[03:39.88]But, god, this thing is ghastly!
[03:43.49]You were so ecstatic when you found it
[03:46.20]At a yard sale.
[03:47.46]No, no, wait—
[03:48.61]In Mr. Gibbon’s barn.
[03:52.04]It all comes back,
[03:53.07]It all comes back,
[03:54.14]It all comes back!
[03:55.58]There’s you.
[03:57.42]And there’s me.
[03:58.61]But now I’m the one who’s forty-three
[04:01.57]And stuck.
[04:02.76]I can’t find my way through.
[04:05.37]Just like you.
[04:07.51]Am I just like you?
[04:10.22]A sign that he was here I can’t abide romantic notions
[04:14.36]And made his work. Of some vague long ago.
[04:16.79]I want to know what’s true,
[04:18.15]Dig deep into who
[04:19.29]And what
[04:20.15]And why
[04:20.95]And when
[04:21.82]Until now gives way to then.
[04:30.88]Daddy!
[04:32.26]Hey Daddy, come here, okay?
[04:33.57]I need you.
[04:34.90]What are you doing? I said come here.
[04:37.36]I wanna play airplane.
[04:41.94]I wanna play airplane.
[04:44.48]I wanna play airplane!
[04:50.48]Caption—
[04:53.02]My dad and I were exactly alike.
[04:55.82]I see everything!
[04:57.40]Caption—
[04:58.43]My dad and I were nothing alike.
[05:01.04]I’m Superman.
[05:02.30]My dad and—
[05:03.46]My dad and I—
[05:04.35]But, Daddy, come back!
