And she met somebody
in the hospital.

:33:03
She was working for the Red Cross,
and she never came back to New York.

:33:08
But I never had a chance
to do anything like that...

:33:11
'cause Mother wasn't well
during the war.

:33:14
She had her eye operation.
:33:17
I missed out on everything.
:33:20
I missed out on the reunion
of my graduating class in Farmington...

:33:24
because that was the fall that
Jack Kennedy campaigned to get in...

:33:29
and I was stuck here with Mother,
the cats, the house and T. Logan...

:33:33
and I couldn't go.
:33:35
- No, you said you didn't want them
to know how old you were.
- The 25th reunion of my class.

:33:40
- No; I think--
- ''Well, I didn't want them
to know my age,'' says Edie.

:33:43
No; I would have enjoyed that; Mother;
becauseJack Kennedy campaigned
to get in and won.

:33:48
Get in the Farmington School ?
That'd be a good place for him.

:33:52
I don't know. I think
it would have been a lot of fun.

:33:55
Yeah, everything's good
that you didn't do.

:33:58
At the time,
you didn't want it.

:34:01
- I couldn't get away.
- Well, that's the choice.

:34:04
- You can't go back and say--
feel gorgeous right now...
- I couldn't leave.

:34:07
-and say; ''Oh; why didn't I do this ?''
- I couldn't leave.

:34:10
Because you didn't feel then
the way you do now.

:34:14
Everybody thinks and feels differently
as the years go by; don't they?

:34:18
- Yeah.
- Yes.

:34:20
- What time is it, chickens ?
-[ David ] What time is it ?

:34:23
- I want to go in now.
- It's; uh; 1.:30.

:34:25
- I may need David's hand to get up.
- You have it.

:34:28
Where is it ?
Can you come around this way ?

:34:31
- Sure.
- Are you taking pictures ?

:34:33
Always. Here.

[ Edie ]
''Two roads diverged in yellow wood...

:34:40
''and pondering; pondering both
or pondering each--

:34:45
''pondering one I took the other...
:34:50
and that made all the difference.''
:34:52
-[ Mrs. Beale ] Robert Frost.
- Isn't that wonderful ?

:34:55
- Did he say that ?
- That's all you need--
just three lines like that.

:34:58
- Come on; Edie; is that Robert Frost ?
- Who else ?
