:19:01
Everything was happening
to all of us for the first time.
:19:03
Mm. And here you're
the only new girl, is that it?
:19:08
Look. You're Brad's wife
and our friend.
:19:12
We want you here
and we've waited for you.
:19:14
Now, why shouldn't that make you feel
safe and secure instead of being scared?
:19:18
You can't be safe and secure
by just telling yourself to feel it.
:19:22
Unless, maybe, you've got twins
and a job of your own...
:19:25
and grown up with your husband
and friends.
:19:29
Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean that.
:19:32
Blame it on the martinis.
:19:34
You know, counting ice water...
:19:36
we could squeeze two more
out of this shaker.
:19:38
Oh, no. No.
:19:42
I've had more tonight than all the rest
of my life put together.
:19:47
What was it like at home?
:19:49
Or should I mind my own business?
:19:54
Ever read in the picture magazines
about Farmer So-and-so...
:19:57
and his model farm,
kitchen and life?
:19:59
Well, it wasn't us
or anybody we knew.
:20:02
Papa'd just get through
paying for the thresher...
:20:04
in time to start paying
on the new separator.
:20:06
Till I was 13, a bus took me three miles
that way to grammar school.
:20:10
Till I was 17, another bus took me
11 miles that way to high school.
:20:14
And after that, I stayed home.
:20:16
Till one day I took a bus
58 miles that way...
:20:18
to join the navy
and see the worid.
:20:22
And meet Brad "Bripaship."
:20:25
Fall in love
and marry Brad "Bripaship."
:20:31
Why not?
:20:34
"Why not?" I said to myself. I was quite a girl
in the navy. Head of my class. Hooray for me.
:20:39
And pretty cute in that uniform.
:20:41
That uniform...
it's the great "leveleller."
:20:46
You couldn't tell me
from Vassar or Smith or Long Island.
:20:49
That was the girl in the picture on the piano.
That isn't me. This is me.
:20:56
What do you people talk about?
:20:58
Years of growing up together. Thousands
of first names and private memories.
