1:20:00
I went away for a while.
I traveled, but not far enough.
1:20:04
Something kept pulling me back.
1:20:07
Finally, I gave in. I went home.
1:20:15
Why, Miss Pierce, this is a day
for rejoicing. lt certainly is.
1:20:20
-How are you?
-You look wonderful.
1:20:22
Thank you.
You been away so long.
1:20:24
-l've been to Mexico.
-ls that a fact?
1:20:27
l don't know what we would have
done if you'd stayed away longer.
1:20:31
-Thank you. lt's nice to see you too.
-Likewise, l'm sure.
1:20:34
-Welcome home.
-Thank you. Hi, lda.
1:20:36
-Well, long time no see.
-How are you?
1:20:39
-How was Mexico?
-Crowded.
1:20:40
-How's business?
-Crowded.
1:20:43
-You want your desk back?
-No, thanks. On you, it looks good.
1:20:47
You know, l like Mexico.
lt's so Mexican. Thanks.
1:20:51
Here.
1:20:54
You're in great shape.
1:20:56
There's nothing
like a nice, long rest, is there?
1:20:59
-Got a drink handy?
-Yeah. l guess so.
1:21:01
Gene, crack open the safe
and get out some of that good bourbon.
1:21:05
-You never used to drink during the day.
-l never used to drink at all.
1:21:08
-lt's a habit l picked up from men.
-Men.
1:21:11
l never yet met one who didn't
have the instincts of a heel.
1:21:15
Sometimes l wish l could
get along without them.
1:21:17
-You've never been married, have you?
-Men around me get allergic to wedding rings.
1:21:23
You know, big-sister type.
''Good old lda...
1:21:26
...you can talk it over
with her, man-to-man!''
1:21:28
l'm getting tired of men talking
to me ''man-to-man.''
1:21:31
-l'll have a drink myself.
-l'll take mine straight.
1:21:34
Well, if you can take it, l can.
1:21:41
-Seen anyone l know lately?
-You mean Veda.
1:21:44
l wondered how long it would take you
to get to that.
1:21:47
Yes, l mean Veda. Have you seen her?
ls she all right?
1:21:50
-Why don't you forget about her?
-l can't. l've tried, but l can't.
1:21:55
Well, try, try again. That's my motto.
1:21:57
You don't know what it's like being
a mother, lda. Veda's a part of me.
