- Yes.
- Good. You will repeat after me.

:34:03
- In token and pledge...
- In token and pledge...

:34:06
...of our faith...
...of our faith...

:34:09
...and abiding love.
...and abiding love.

:34:11
By authority committed unto me
as justice of the peace...

:34:14
...I declare Job Skeffington and Frances
Trellis are now husband and wife...

:34:19
...according to the laws and statutes
of the state of New Jersey.

:34:22
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

:34:24
It's a privilege of the justice
of the peace to kiss the bride.

:34:29
May I please use your phone?
:35:00
Job, I was born right across
the river there, near Grant's Tomb.

:35:05
Of course, the tomb
hadn't quite been built.

:35:07
My governess used to
take me there every day.

:35:10
That's where she met her policeman.
:35:12
Job, where were you born?
:35:14
Right here in New York.
The corner of Market and Cherry Street.

:35:18
Market and Cherry? Where's that?
:35:21
Foot of the East River. It's about 10 miles,
I should say, from the nearest governess.

:35:27
Job, do you realize I've known you
only two months?

:35:30
And that I practically know
nothing about you at all.

:35:34
Were you poor?
:35:35
You have no idea how poor.
:35:37
You weren't actually hungry?
:35:40
My father sold chocolate bars
with almond nuts on a pushcart.

:35:43
When he had a good day, we ate meat.
:35:46
When he had a bad day,
we ate chocolate bars with almond nuts.

:35:49
The bad days had a slight edge.
:35:51
You remember a lot about
when you were a little boy, don't you?

:35:55
Especially the lack of plumbing.
:35:59
Skeffington, that's a strange name
for Market and Cherry.
