Ann: Grandma always said
that my mom was a strange child.

:04:11
Oh, this is absolutely moribund.
:04:15
Gwen Purvis has cancer.
:04:16
That's worse.
:04:18
I didn't give it to her.
:04:20
You didn't give it to her.
:04:22
That's funny, Aunt Adele.
:04:24
You're gonna die
one day, too, Mom,

:04:25
just like the rest ofus.
:04:26
But not in this town.
:04:31
Ann: My mother never
wanted to stay in Bay City.

:04:33
I think she married my stepfatherTed
:04:36
because he was so nice
and so clean.

:04:40
Being an ice skating instructor
made him seem cleaner.

:04:42
She missed my real father,
who was Egyptian,

:04:46
dark, and romantic.
:04:53
One Christmas Eve
I heard my parents arguing.

[Car Door Closes]

[Engine Starts]
:05:01
I didn't know anything
until he was gone.

:05:08
He drove away in our brown Valiant.
:05:15
I'm sorry.
:05:17
Oh, I'm sorry.
:05:19
I'm so sorry.
:05:33
You're awfully quiet.
:05:37
You said we'd see
an Indian reservation.

:05:39
When we get to one,
we will see one.

:05:41
Sweetie, don't mumble.
:05:43
How are you gonna be an actress
if you can't speak clearly?

:05:46
I don't want to be an actress.
:05:48
I bet we won't even stop
in Las Vegas, will we?

:05:51
Ah, now, that's what's bothering you.
:05:53
You said you had a number on him.
:05:54
I said we would look him up, ok?
:05:58
When you were 4 years old,
:05:59
your father left you just
in the middle of the night.
