00:13:34.679 --> 00:13:37.360

00:13:58.460 --> 00:14:02.320
So<00:13:58.659><c> there's</c><00:13:58.879><c> something</c><00:13:59.100><c> about</c><00:14:00.340><c> the</c><00:14:01.240><c> features</c><00:14:01.600><c> of</c><00:14:01.879><c> it</c><00:14:02.059><c> which</c>

00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:12.580
oh<00:14:07.440><c> dear,</c><00:14:09.000><c> what</c><00:14:09.360><c> a</c><00:14:09.779><c> disappointment.</c><00:14:11.519><c> Couldn't</c><00:14:11.779><c> we</c><00:14:12.039><c> even</c><00:14:12.240><c> have</c>
