and the outlet again."
:50:02
I can't believe
this book is in our high school.

:50:05
Yeah, but they usually leave
out all the good parts.

:50:08
This edition is unexpurgated.
:50:10
Un what?
:50:12
It means it's the whole thing.
:50:14
"This is the touch
of my lips to yours."

:50:16
I think what happens in high school
probably ends up

:50:18
being pretty irrelevant
later on in life.

:50:20
"This is the far off depth..."
:50:21
It's not as if people
check your math grades

:50:24
when you're 30 years old.
:50:26
Really. It's not like people
remember stuff like that

:50:29
when you're 30.
:50:31
- 30!
- 30!

:50:33
Do you think we'll still know
each other when we're 30?

:50:39
Do you?
:50:41
I don't know.
:50:43
It seems so far from now.
:50:46
But I hope so.
:50:48
Me, too.
:50:53
Evie, do you have something
you want to tell me?

:50:59
What?
:51:00
No.
:51:02
Honey,
if you can't tell me,

:51:03
you can't tell anyone,
you know that.

:51:05
Mom, why is it that every time
:51:07
I try and separate from you,
:51:08
which is a totally normal
adolescent impulse,

:51:10
and in fact, crucial
to my adult development,

:51:12
you come back
with that weird thing

:51:14
about me telling you what
I can't tell the rest of the world?

:51:16
Okay, okay, fine.
Forget it.

:51:18
Forget it.
Absolutely fine.

:51:26
Thank you.
:51:28
You know, if you want
to shut me out

:51:30
during our final
weeks together

:51:32
before you go off to college,
:51:34
then you go right ahead.
:51:36
Mom, I'm not leaving
for, like, four months.

:51:38
You're going to your father's
for the whole summer, Evie.

:51:41
Mom, you're experiencing
empty-nest syndrome

:51:43
before I'm even gone.
:51:45
I'm an adult now.
:51:46
Oh, really?
:51:48
And I have to traverse
my own landscape.

:51:52
Call me old fashioned, but I thought that
was the sort of situation

:51:55
where a person goes
home to their ma,

:51:56
not their ex-lover
from seven years ago.

:51:59
You are old fashioned.
