1:53:00
You were right.
I never thought I could say it...
1:53:03
...but you were right.
- About what?
1:53:05
During the past months, I've been able to
come to a few conclusions about myself.
1:53:09
- And what were they?
- Well, Michael, I've lied so long.
1:53:13
I was everything you said,
especially that night in the kitchen.
1:53:18
I wanted you more
than you wanted me.
1:53:20
- I had no right to say those things.
- Yes, you did.
1:53:23
- I came to tell you the truth.
- You don't owe me an explanation.
1:53:27
Allison didn't leave home because
of Nellie's suicide...
1:53:30
...but because she hated me.
1:53:32
- She won't answer my letters or calls.
- Why not?
1:53:36
The night you walked out,
Marion Partridge called me.
1:53:39
She told me Allison and Norman...
1:53:41
I heard about that woman
and her phone calls.
1:53:44
Well, I've always been
so afraid of scandal.
1:53:47
I believed Marion.
I believed that phone call.
1:53:52
Without thinking, when Allison returned,
I told her some terrible things.
1:53:56
What things?
1:53:58
Come on, Connie, what things?
1:54:03
I'm Allison's mother,
but I've never been married.
1:54:07
Not to Angus MacKenzie,
not to anyone.
1:54:11
I went to New York
and lived with a married man.
1:54:15
After he died, I came back here
and lied...
1:54:19
...and I've been lying ever since.
1:54:36
You want the truth...
1:54:38
...and when you get it,
you're just like everybody else.
1:54:42
- They want anything but the truth.
- Connie. Connie!
1:54:48
I told you once that
the offer was always open.
1:54:51
That I'm committing myself
to you all the way...
1:54:53
...and that I plan to worry about you,
and take care of you. I meant that.
