00:00 -Whereas, you know, Kierkegaard argued that life is struggle.
00:05 So the very act of searching for his son
00:07 is, in essence, nothing more than a reclamation of purpose.
00:11 But, but, but, but...
00:13 once completed, life...
00:17 loses all meaning.
00:20 [ Laughter ]
00:21 -Wow.
00:22 And I thought finding Nemo was just about fish.
00:25 [ Laughter ]
00:27 -Freddy, what's going on? Are you okay?
00:29 -Are you pontificating?
00:32 -When Freddy gets drunk, he gets wicked smart.
00:35 -That's so reductive.
00:37 -See? Sounds like you.

01:04 -Okay, guys, look, just 'cause on occasion,
01:08 I will extemporaneously engage in a chat.
01:11 -Oh! Oh, my son.
01:14 My beautiful boy.
01:16 I knew you were still in there somewhere.
01:18 Tell me, do you still remember French?
01:22 -[ Speaking French ]

01:26 -Oh!
01:28 Holy crap!
01:30 He sounds like the candle from that movie.
