:19:00
we aren't your family
and you're not our mother.
:19:06
Hello?
:19:08
Of course, I don't see what else we can do.
:19:13
Do you, Sara?
:19:17
Yes, a lot has happened
since this afternoon.
:19:21
Certainly. Goodbye.
:19:23
Honestly, Henry,
I thought you knew all about the letter.
:19:26
- If I had dreamed how Joyce felt...
- Only Joyce?
:19:29
Thank you for not making a scene.
:19:31
How could I in front of Lily?
She idolises you, Naomi.
:19:34
Joyce is different, she's more like me.
:19:37
I don't think she'll forgive years of desertion
for a few minutes of charm.
:19:40
I'm sorry. It's a good thing
I'm leaving right after the play.
:19:44
Naomi, honestly, why did you come back?
You hate this town.
:19:47
I told you. Lily.
It was an impulse. I couldn't help it.
:19:50
Are you trying to tell me after all these years,
:19:52
you were suddenly seized
with an irresistible impulse?
:19:54
Don't you think
I wanted to see the children before?
:19:56
- You never tried!
- Nobody asked me!
:19:58
- Would it have mattered if we had?
- Naomi, your supper's ready.
:20:03
Don't let it get cold.
:20:08
I'm sorry,
I don't think I've shouted since you left.
:20:12
- You could always do that to me.
- Do you hate me this much, Henry?
:20:15
I'm thinking of the children.
Our lives are settled now.
:20:18
We've lived down the talk, the scandal.
:20:20
If you've lived it down, fine,
it won't start up again.
:20:23
- It won't.
- Ill go to the play alone.
:20:25
- You needn't see me again.
- No, we'll go together.
:20:29
We'll make everything seem perfectly normal
:20:31
then you'll come back here to the party
and you can catch the 12:15 for Chicago.
:20:36
That suits me.
:20:38
Er, one other thing.
:20:41
- That was Sara on the telephone.
- Sara?
:20:43
Sara Harper. She's the drama teacher.
:20:46
They're putting additional chairs
in the auditorium.
:20:48
- Seems there's a sudden demand for seats.
- At least Lily will have a good house.
:20:53
And you'll be the centre of attention.
:20:56
Ill make a good impression.
:20:58
That's all you care about, isn't it?
What other people will think?
