== Synopsis == | == Synopsis == | ||
Joe doesn't answer Kate's calls or e-mails. She calls at 6 AM - he | |||
picks up. She's sick, can't work, wants Joe to know how much she | |||
misses, needs him. Joe says he loves her too. They talk about how to | |||
repair their relationship. Kate visits Florence with a friend, which | |||
makes Joe jealous. | |||
4:30: Joe attributes his jealousy to his mother's 'wandering eye', her | |||
interest in men, her sexual appetite. He felt inadequate to her need, | |||
that she betrayed him; he hated her for this. About her second | |||
marriage, Joe felt that it was because he wasn't 'man enough'. | |||
6:00: Joe talks about her TV watching: old romances. One night he | |||
hears her moaning in bed. | |||
7:00: Joe describes the Big Bang, leading up to life on Earth.<ref name=nature>originally aired in [[The Nature Of Things]]</ref> | |||
8:40: Joe's mother talks about what she's watching on TV, what | |||
happened on 'Ally McBeal', 'A touch of mink'. She took her | |||
hairdresser out on Mother's Day. | |||
11:00: Kristine McKenna talks about bad relationships, mentions one of | |||
hers. She draws a parallel between romantic love and extreme | |||
performance art. She tells of [[Wikipedia:Chris Burden|Chris Burden]], the performance artist | |||
who had himself shot, crucified on a Volkswagen, sealed in a box for 3 | |||
days, then the [[Wikipedia:Viennese Actionism|Viennese Actionists]], | |||
one of whom cut off slices of his penis. (These are unpleasant to | |||
read about.) | |||
14:00: Jack Kornfield tells of a woman whose husband had died. They | |||
were involved in the spiritual community. 3 friends told her | |||
different stories about what had happened to him - they had seen him. | |||
The stories disagreed, so she asked Kornfield to sort it out. He told | |||
her to focus on what she knew. He quotes Suzuki Roshi's single | |||
comment that embodies Zen: 'Not always so.' He tells us that we | |||
should focus on what we know. | |||
21:30: Larry Block tells of a relationship with a woman 25 years ago, | |||
when he was one of the Dromios in <i>Comedy of Errors</i> in | |||
<i>Shakespeare in the Park</i> (1975). He had a brief passionate | |||
relationship with a woman, was distraught that it ended.<ref>It seems | |||
to be a different woman than the similar relationship in the same year | |||
he describes in [[Karma (Part 1)]].</ref> | |||
29:50: Joe talks about animals that eat other animals, particularly | |||
gruesomely, including the [[Wikipedia:Sternoptychidae|hatchetfish]], with its luminescent | |||
anus, and the [[Wikipedia:Recluse spider|violin spider]] - examples of God's | |||
grace.<ref name=nature /> | |||
32:30: Jack Kornfield tells of explaining a passing satellite to an | |||
old monk, who didn't even know the Earth was round. Kornfield points | |||
out that this fellow was venerated for his wisdom, how wisdom is | |||
different from knowledge.<ref name=nature /> | |||
36:50: Kornfield tells of the Korean Zen master San Se Neen (sp?) who | |||
teaches his students to cultivate 'don't know mind'. | |||
38:00: Kristine says that she spent most of her life thinking that she | |||
didn't deserve someone nice, and her relationships lived up to her | |||
expectation. Her parents had an unhappy relationship. It took a long | |||
time for her to learn that sex could contribute to her life. She | |||
remembers a girlhood crush, Bruce Lee Barnes. She got drunk and made | |||
it with a friend. After that she had 7 bad relationships in a row. | |||
43:30: Joe imagines taking a plane to Rome, all the things Kate and he | |||
will do. | |||
47:10: Kornfield tells the story of the rabbi who asked his students | |||
how they could know when night had ended and day had begun. | |||
49:50: Kornfield leads a meditation, asking how our heart responds to | |||
different circumstances. | |||
53:10: A flight attendant's instructions to passengers before | |||
take-off. | |||
54:40: Joe talks about love, that pop songs are about love, never | |||
about business affairs or unpleasant family matters. | |||
57:00: 'I've got you under my skin' (Frank Sinatra) | |||
