You kind of like that school, don't
you, baby?

1:22:04
Yes, oh yes. And she said lots more.
l've been trying to remember.

1:22:13
She said, even if you have
imagination;

1:22:16
is better to write about
the things you know about

1:22:18
so they'll be true, and...
and the way things are only.

1:22:24
Only what, baby?
1:22:27
Papa, the people in the hall when we
brought up the tree,

1:22:30
the look on their faces
all friendly and nice.

1:22:33
Why can't people be like that all
the time? Not just on Christmas?

1:22:38
Well, l guess is because...
Well, l don't know.

1:22:47
Maybe is because Christmas is like
people really

1:22:49
are and the other part ain't true.
1:22:52
And with that imagination of yours,
if you think about it hard enough,

1:22:54
you know, like it ought to be.
1:22:57
But when you get to thinking.
1:22:58
Papa, the people in stories, they
don't just live happily ever after,

1:23:02
do they?
1:23:03
No, baby, but...
1:23:04
But the trouble is...
1:23:06
it doesn't feel good when
you think about things like that.

1:23:11
l mean, like they really are.
1:23:15
You better stick out your tongue,
Prima Donna.

1:23:21
Oh, is just like l thought. You've
got a bad case.

1:23:25
A very bad case.
1:23:27
Case of what, Papa?
1:23:29
A very bad case of growing up.
Thas all it is.

1:23:36
Oh it ain't fun some times, but,
don't you be afraid.

1:23:41
l don't want you should ever be
afraid.

1:23:47
You're so nice, Papa.
1:23:49
l guess is better if you don't
just stay young all your life.

1:23:52
lll be much nicer growing up.
