So that when the other ladies arrive,
we'll be all ready to go.

:08:05
Fine. If they'll only get here.
:08:15
Oh, I'm sorry we're late.
Rita had to go by the station.

:08:18
Oh, sure.
See anyone there you know?

:08:20
- Just a husband of mine running like mad. Why?
- Nobody else?

:08:23
Where's Addie? Weren't you
supposed to pick her up?

:08:25
Nothing's happened to her,
I hope.

:08:27
Addie Ross left town this morning.
:08:30
Left town?
:08:33
Well, what do you mean, "left town"?
:08:34
She certainly could've told someone,
at least phoned.

:08:37
- She's left for good.
- Then it must've been something
sudden, some emergency.

:08:41
What makes you so sure it's for good?
How do you know?

:08:43
Well, the doorman told me
she subleased her apartment last week...

:08:46
and yesterday she sold her car.
:08:48
So much for
your sudden emergency.

:08:50
If that isn't just like her. Why do you suppose
she had to keep it such a big secret?

:08:54
Who knows why Addie does
or doesn't do anything?

:09:06
I've got a letter for the Mesdames Bishop,
Hollingsway and Phipps.

:09:10
From the dear departed, I'll bet.
:09:12
Addie's so tactful.
She even puts us in alphabetical order.

:09:18
- Open it up.
- No, let's wait.

:09:20
- For what?
- Till we get back. Knowing Addie...

:09:23
I mean, why let her spoil our day?
:09:25
Not my day. Addie Ross never
saw the day she could spoil my day.

:09:29
Did I put enough days into that?
:09:33
Dearest Debby, Lora Mae and Rita.
:09:36
As you know by now, you'll have to
carry on without me from here.

:09:40
It isn't easy to
leave a town like our town...

:09:43
to tear myself away from you three dear,
dear friends who have meant so much to me.

:09:48
And so I consider myself
extremely lucky...

:09:50
to be able to take with me
a sort of memento.

:09:53
Something to remind me always
of the town that was my home...

:09:57
and of my three
very dearest friends...
