1:04:00
even if it looks like an accident
or natural causes?
1:04:03
- Would you promise me that?
- Yes.
1:04:08
Even if I do return alive, I don't think I'll be
attending any more dances after this one.
1:04:13
With everything that's going on, this is
probably the last deb season as we know it.
1:04:16
I don't want to just hang around,
watching the decline.
1:04:19
- Everyone's going tonight?
- No.Just me.
1:04:23
The International
is an inorganic debutante ball.
1:04:27
The others were natural outgrowths
of local UHB formations.
1:04:30
This was assembled
like a tourist attraction.
1:04:34
Each girl has two escorts -
1:04:37
one, a cadet in uniform
from one of the service academies...
1:04:40
the other a civilian like myself.
1:04:43
And the whole thing's televised
on Channel 9.
1:04:45
- You're kidding.
- No.
1:04:48
I guess you could say
it's extremely vulgar.
1:04:51
I like it a lot.
1:04:54
And these Texas and Oklahoma debs
are really nice...
1:04:58
a real relief from
these hypercritical New York girls.
1:05:02
What's everyone else doing then?
1:05:04
I imagine they'll be glued
to the set.
1:05:07
( TV;Male Announcer )
From the state of Texas, Miss Sabina Johnston...
1:05:11
daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. RoderickJohnston.
1:05:13
- She's cute.
- But what about the dress?
1:05:16
Nick said he thought this would be
the last real deb season.
1:05:20
- How come?
- Because of everything going on.
1:05:23
- Like what?
- Well, everything.
1:05:29
The stock market, the economy,
c-contemporary social attitudes.
1:05:33
Is Audrey coming tonight?
1:05:36
She said she felt tired
and thought she'd stay at home.
1:05:39
She can watch Channel 9
equally well from there.
