Your father will lose quite a lot of money
if it doesn't.

:37:04
Just about all he's got.
:37:07
I like your father.
:37:10
Do you?
:37:16
I threw away about $3,000 once.
:37:19
CAL: Yeah?
:37:22
ABRA: When I was 13.
CAL: You threw it away?

:37:24
It was a diamond ring worth about that.
:37:26
At least, my father told me
that's what he paid for it.

:37:28
I threw it in the river.
Made Dad terribly angry.

:37:32
[Abra laughing]
:37:34
I reckon it would.
:37:36
But I forgave him.
And it's been all right ever since.

:37:39
CAL: You forgave him?
ABRA: Yes.

:37:43
You forgave him 'cause you threw
a ring of his worth $3,000 into the river?

:37:47
ABRA: That's right.
CAL: You forgave him?

:37:49
ABRA: [Laughing] That's right.
:37:50
CAL: Is there an egg in this basket?
:37:54
You see, I thought he didn't love me.
That made me feel awful.

:37:59
Girls love their fathers terribly.
:38:02
CAL: Do they?
:38:05
My mother died when I was 13...
:38:06
and Dad got married again soon after that.
Did you know that?

:38:10
CAL: No, I didn't know that.
:38:13
Are you interested in hearing about me?
:38:15
Yeah.
:38:20
When Dad got married again,
it made me sick.

:38:25
I just hated everybody.
:38:27
I used to sit and just glare at people...
:38:29
or I wouldn't even answer
when they spoke to me.

:38:34
- Why you telling me all this?
- I want to.

:38:38
I was that way for months.
I just hated everybody.

:38:41
I thought nobody in the world loved me.
:38:46
ABRA: And it was awful.
:38:50
Then I found this ring
that Dad gave my new mother...

:38:55
- so I took it and threw it in the river.
- Good.

:38:57
[Abra laughing]
:38:59
ABRA: I thought you'd like that.
