:15:00
He's married again
and got a couple of kids.

:15:03
- But how do you know he's happy?
- He's crazy about her.

:15:08
I know, but...
just suppose he suddenly realised

:15:11
his second marriage was a tragic mistake.
:15:14
His eyes are opened at last
and he knows now that your mother

:15:17
is the only woman
he's ever loved in his whole life.

:15:21
I don't think there's much chance of that.
:15:23
So there's nothing to do but to tell her
the truth. The second wife, I mean.

:15:28
He's simply got to go back to the only
woman he's ever loved in his whole life.

:15:32
Goodbye, second wife.
:15:35
- You think that's possible?
- He's got no choice.

:15:37
He can't live a lie, can he?
He's got to go back to his one true love.

:15:43
Maybe... during Christmas.
:15:46
- Christmas Eve, maybe.
- About six o'clock.

:15:49
You and your mother are all alone
trimming the tree when the doorbell rings.

:15:54
- I'd be the one to answer it.
- You'd be wondering who it could be.

:15:58
You weren't expecting anyone.
:16:00
You'd open the door and he'd be standing
there, simply loaded with presents.

:16:05
Before you could say anything,
he'd say "Sh",

:16:09
because he wants
to surprise your mother.

:16:12
But first he'd give you a big hug
just as tight as he could.

:16:16
Then Mom would come to see who it was.
:16:18
She'd been wondering why
she didn't hear anybody say anything.

:16:21
For a long time they'd just stand there and
stare at each other, not saying anything.

:16:26
They wouldn't have to.
:16:29
And then he'd take her in his arms
and rain kisses on her upturned face.

:16:36
And they'd just love each other to death
right there in the front door.

:16:41
Do you really think...
:16:43
- Who'd like some clam chowder?
- Clam chowder!

:16:46
Wash your hands first.
:16:52
Then two small bladders
came out of their mouths.

:16:55
- If you'd been at rehearsals...
- Just as she was beginning to hum.

:16:58
Henry, you've got to remember
you're not Van Cliburn.
