"Home sweet home."
1:07:06
- I know.
- You do know?

1:07:11
You're doing a swell job here
at home holding things together.

1:07:15
Those daughters of yours,
they're pretty wonderful.

1:07:18
I know Tim's going to be
mighty pleased with them.

1:07:21
I imagine he'll be a bit surprised
to see how Jane grew up

1:07:24
without so much
as a by-your-leave.

1:07:26
Yes, she grew up
while Mother knitted.

1:07:28
Or worse still,
while Mother didn't even knit.

1:07:31
That's the point, Tony.
Can't you see it?

1:07:35
Boy, I see what you mean now
about not listening.

1:07:38
- I guess I was pretty dull.
- All right, laugh at me.

1:07:41
But it's settled in my mind
once and for all.

1:07:44
I have a husband who went off
to fight for this home and for me...

1:07:47
that's what you said.
1:07:48
And I have children who had
courage and intelligence

1:07:51
while their mother
lived in a dream world.

1:07:52
I've come out of it.
1:07:54
I buy your
"Home sweet home" idea,

1:07:56
but I want
to do something about it.

1:07:59
Well, say something.
1:08:01
Don't tell me that glib
Tony Willett's at a loss for words.

1:08:07
Well, Annie, my girl,
I'm afraid you're right.

1:08:16
I hope you'll think
I was right, too, Tim,

1:08:19
and that someday you'll be
interested in reading this diary.

1:08:23
And I hope you won't be
too shocked when you hear

1:08:25
that I'm actually training
for work in a shipyard.

1:08:29
Yes, tremendous changes
have taken place

1:08:31
in the pampered woman
who was your wife.

1:08:34
It's hard even for me to realize
I'm studying to be a lady welder.

1:08:38
And doing very nicely,
so it seems.

1:08:41
Oh, Tim, I love it so,
1:08:43
and I have such admiration
for all these people.

1:08:45
There's one woman
I can't wait for you to meet.

1:08:48
Her name is nothing like we ever
heard at the country club.

1:08:51
It's Zofia Koslowska,
and she likes me

1:08:55
because she thinks I helped her
1:08:56
through a most awful
and tragic Ioneliness.

1:08:59
I wish my little boy had lived
so he could have seen America.
