:49:01
Your husband?
:49:04
He died when Allison was 2.
:49:12
And Allison.
:49:14
- A few years ago.
- She's grown a bit since then.
:49:18
I came to tell you that Allison
has been named valedictorian.
:49:23
Wonderful. She'll be terribly pleased,
and so am I.
:49:27
She's a fine girl, bright and sensitive.
You should be very proud of her.
:49:32
Yes, I am.
:49:35
Well, that's what I came about.
:49:40
Good night, Mrs. MacKenzie.
:49:41
You are lonely here, aren't you?
:49:45
It's not the worst thing
that can happen to you.
:49:48
- Isn't it?
- You can learn to live by yourself.
:49:51
You can get used to it.
:49:53
Maybe. But that doesn't make it
the best way to live.
:49:56
The best way?
What would that be?
:50:00
People meeting, talking.
:50:04
Well, in Peyton Place,
two people talking is a conspiracy.
:50:09
A meeting is an assignation, and getting
to know one another is a scandal.
:50:14
I think you're hard on the town
and hard on yourself.
:50:17
No, I'm quite all right the way I am.
:50:20
What were you gonna do tonight?
:50:22
Wash your hair? Read a book?
Go to the movies alone?
:50:26
- Well, it makes time pass.
- Time shouldn't just pass.
:50:30
It should be used.
:50:32
I wouldn't know where to begin.
:50:34
Begin at the beginning,
begin by getting out.
:50:37
We need another chaperon
for the dance.
:50:39
Why don't you help us out?
:50:42
Will you come?
:50:49
I think I'd like that.
:50:51
Fine.
:50:54
Good night, and thanks.
