Miss Watson. Come in.
:28:15
Seven law schools within 45 minutes
of Philadelphia.

:28:18
You can study and get dinner
on the table by 5:00.

:28:21
- It's too late.
- No. Some accept late admissions.

:28:24
- I was upset at first.
- Joan, the guests.

:28:26
When Tommy told me that he got
accepted to Penn, I thought:

:28:29
"Her fate is sealed.
How can she throw it all away?"

:28:32
I realized you won't have to. You
could bake your cake and eat it too.

:28:35
We're married.
:28:39
We eloped over the weekend.
:28:41
Turned out he was petrified
of a big ceremony...

:28:44
...so we did a sort of
spur-of-the-moment thing.

:28:47
Very romantic.
:28:49
Look.
:28:58
It's beautiful.
:29:03
It was my choice. Not to go.
He would have supported it.

:29:09
- But you don't have to choose.
- No, I have to.

:29:12
I want a home, a family.
It's not something I'll sacrifice.

:29:15
No one's asking you
to sacrifice that, Joan.

:29:18
I just want you to understand
that you can do both.

:29:21
Think I'll wake up one day
and regret not being a lawyer?

:29:24
Yes, I'm afraid that you will.
:29:26
Not as much as I'd regret not having
a family. Not being there to raise them.

:29:30
I know exactly what I'm doing, and
it doesn't make me any less smart.

:29:35
- This must seem terrible to you.
- I didn't say that. L...

:29:38
Sure you did. You always do.
:29:41
You stand in class and tell us to look
beyond the image, but you don't.

:29:45
To you, a housewife is someone who
sold her soul for a center hall colonial.

:29:49
She has no depth,
no intellect, no interests.

:29:55
You're the one who said
I could do anything I wanted.

:29:59
This is what I want.
