:12:53
Thats very interesting.
:12:55

:12:58
Yeah. If theres anything I can do
for you girls, you just whistle.

I dont like to disturb her during the day.
:13:20
- Helen?
- Yeah.

I dont want you to get the wrong idea.
Its just that we cant afford to get married...

:13:30
and we cant afford two apartments.
Im out of work right now.

:13:33
So when Helens at work, I sleep...
:13:35
and then when she sleeps,
I do the housework.

:13:38
We dont see much of each other,
so we get along just great.

:13:42
I can see you girls still think
thats a little strange?

:13:45
- Only because were from Ohio.
- Yeah. I guess that would make a difference.

:13:49
- Violet was from Brooklyn.

before they started blasting for the subway.

:13:56
- It was bad for business.
