:22:01
Oh, my Lord.
I saw Vera today.

:22:03
I stopped by the Corner Stop
to get a cold drink.

:22:06
I had a craving for something sweet.
:22:08
- My Lord, she's gotten big.
- You could move in.

:22:12
Well, I almost didn't recognize her.
:22:14
Do you know that she can't even
stand up behind that cash register
no more?

:22:19
They had to put in a bar stool
for her to sit on.

:22:23
And Leticia Bustamante,
that sweet, little Mexican girl
that stocks the shelves...

:22:27
told me that Tom Ed had to
reinforce that stool with lug nuts.

:22:32
I swear!
:22:35
Oh, Vera's
so sweet though.

:22:37
She used to always slip me
a few extra Green Stamps.

:22:41
And she never bothers to look
at the expiration date on my coupons.

:22:45
She's my best friend.
:22:49
But why on God's green Earth would
anyone let themselves get that big?

:22:52
Well, she says it's glandular.
[ Laughs ]

:22:56
Glandular.
:23:00
Oh! Oh, I saw Ty's Alpo commercial...
:23:05
the one where the dog licks his face.
:23:08
Ooh, that is real cute.
He is so good-lookin'.

:23:11
- Y'all must be proud.
- Well, we're not.

:23:14
When I got off the soap,
I rebelled...

:23:18
and started seeking out gay roles.
:23:22
I was always so scared to play gay.
:23:25
Scared someone would...
:23:28
you know, suspect.
:23:30
After he got off the soap opera,
he started doing theater, Sissy.

:23:35
Awful. Awful stuff.
:23:37
I got this play
in this tiny, little theater
known for doing gay plays.

:23:41
Male nudity, the works.
:23:44
Every night the theater
was just packed. It was just
one big, old homo hoedown.

:23:49
He calls it art.
:23:51
I call it trash.
Did this one play--

:23:55
begged me and Wilson to come out
to Los Angeles and see him in it.

:23:59
Well, I was just dying
to see Bernadette Peters
in Annie Get Your Gun.
