Krapp is initially motionless and then the comic business with bananas and ledgers.

08.18
Krapp: [Briskly.] Ah! [He bends over ledger, turns the pages, finds the entry he wants, reads.] Box … thrree … spool … five…

13.55
Krapp begins the tape replay.
Tape: [Strong voice, rather pompous, clearly Krapp's at a much earlier time.] Thirty-nine today, sound as a -

18.15
Recording continues: 'Just been listening to an old year …' with mentions of Bianca [18.30], drinking [20.48] and 'the opus … magnum' [21.40].

24.30
Krapp resumes listening (to the account of his mother's death and 'long viduity').

27.12
Having consulted the dictionary, Krapp resumes listening to the account of his mother's death:
Tape: - bench by the weir from where I could see her window …

30.42
The 'memorable equinox' is recalled and [at 32.10] an excerpt is found of his 'farewell to love'.

Tape: Spiritually a year of profound gloom …

Krapp rewinds to play full context of the 'farewell to love' account.
Tape: -upper lake, with the punt, bathed off the bank, then pushed out into the stream and drifted …

Krapp loads a virgin 'spool' and begins to record his last tape …

Krapp: Just been listening to that stupid bastard I took myself for thirty years ago, hard to believe I was ever as bad as that. Thank God that's all done with anyway.

Tape: - gooseberries, she said. I said again I thought it was hopeless and no good going on and she agreed, without opening her eyes …

Tape: Here I end this reel. Box - [Pause.] - three, spool - [Pause.] - five. [Pause.] Perhaps my best years are gone. When there was a chance of happiness. But I wouldn't want them back. Not with the fire in me now. No, I wouldn't want them back.

The recording ends and Krapp is left 'motionless, staring before him'.
