:23:07
That is all you have to say?
What is my nationality?

You were brought up in Mexico

with a Castilian accent.

My accent has been colored
by my many travels.
:23:26
Very well, i will answer.
I was raised in Mexico.
:23:30
My father was born in Queens.

Tony DeMarco. He was ltalian.
The Dance King of Astoria.
:23:36
Excuse me.
:23:37
Your father was a dance king...
:23:40

:23:46
My father came to Mexico to work
for a pharmaceutical company.
:23:49
He had just gotten off the bus
and was walking...
:23:52
to a nearby hacienda
to rent a room,
:23:55
when he first saw my mother.
:23:58
Both her parents died
from an illness.
:24:00
My mother was stronger.
:24:02
She survived and took over
their plantation.
:24:06
Sitting in the sunlight...
:24:09
the bright rays lighting her hair,
she was so beautiful...
:24:14
that, at first, my father
could not believe his eyes.
:24:18
It was love at first sight.
:24:55
They held each other in
the moonlight, kissing and touching
:24:59
dancing until morning.
