Pass With Distinction
7. Pass With Distinction
The girl Stephen (pretends to make a pass) Excuse me, have you got the time please? I make it half past seven. What time do you make it? (rejecting what she sees as an inappropriate advance) You already know the time (setting up a trap for her) I know my time. (trying to brush him off) Are you trying to be funny? Time's not a universal quantity. We used to think that it was, we used to think that it was just there, marching on at the same pace for everyone everywhere... ...like a railway track that stretched to infinity. Time was eternal. Now we know that it isn't. (impressed) Wow. (urgently) You have to know this is incredibly important. Time's not a background thing, it's not an absolute, against which everything else is measured. It's dynamic. Dynamic? Active! Active? Wonderful - ! If you were to travel East very very quickly - (she is a simple girl, and she is enthralled by the idea of traveling to the East. ['Out of sight' is a 1960s way of saying, 'amazing']) Out of sight, to the Far East? ('laying it on with a trowel' - as we say 阿谀奉承 The Far far East. (ecstatic) Oh completely out of sight. (making a pun/joke) Yes, completely out of sight. And I stayed here your time would slow down relative to mine. (understanding the point) Like I'd get really really slow... If you went very very fast. (excited) If I went very very fast, I'd get really really slow....? Your time would, relative to mine. Totally out of sight! (concluding) Time's very important.
