:04:03
Now Mom and Dad
really had something to fight over.
:04:06
Me.
:04:07
Then one day, my dad disappeared.
:04:10
No number, no letters, just gone.
:04:14
I wrote to Seventeen magazine.
:04:16
A long letter about us.
:04:19
They wanted to publish it
as an article but kept asking:
:04:22
"Your dad going away?
Does he come back?
:04:24
Does it have a happy ending?"
:04:26
In reality, it didn't,
but I thought, "What the hell?
:04:30
I'll give them what they want."
:04:33
This is it.
:04:34
Time to go.
:04:36
Mom, please...
:04:38
No way are we gonna be late.
:04:40
We have hours.
:04:42
Honey, honey, you've got
registration at 4.
:04:45
Come on, now.
:04:47
Oh, Lizzie, you wanna take your rug.
:04:51
- Mom!
- What? Come on.
:04:55
This is the most important day
of your life.
:04:58
I thought that's
when you got married.
:05:01
No, honey, that's
the worst day of your life.
:05:06
Yeah, she is so excited.
:05:08
Oh, Mom, she looks beautiful.
:05:10
Pity, I was aiming for psychotic.
:05:13
Well, yeah.
:05:15
Grandma's so excited she's crying.
:05:17
It's a journalism scholarship, Mom.
:05:19
Journalism, yeah.
She wants to be a writer.
:05:29
The first few days,
that's when everyone makes friends.
:05:32
I know.
:05:34
- It gets harder later.
- Mom, I think I'm old enough.
:05:38
Don't get upset.
:05:40
I'm not getting upset.
:05:42
Why are you saying that I'm upset?
:05:44
I'm just trying to help. You know that.
:05:46
You know how proud
I am of you, Lizzie.
:05:49
You have so much potential.
:05:53
Are you listening to me?
:05:55
Lizzie?
:05:57
Lizzie. Lizzie, what are you doing?
:05:59
Come on, let's get this stuff
down to the car.
