:19:02
"Born into one of the wealthiest
families of Greenville, Alabama,
:19:07
her daddy's in cotton and
all that that implies."
:19:10
There's no listing for an
Earl Carmichael in Greenville.
:19:14
How about her local high school?
:19:15
No record of a Melanie
Carmichael attending... ever.
:19:18
Jesus! Whatever happened
to responsible journalism?
:19:26
There's something wrong here.
:19:28
Why would my son do this to me?
:19:31
Maybe he, um, loves her.
:19:33
Oh, please!
This is classic rebound.
:19:36
He's still wounded from...
who was his last girlfriend?
:19:39
Whitney Truesdale,
lawyer, San Francisco.
:19:41
Yeah, well, there was
a match made in Heaven...
:19:44
society, political family,
California...
:19:48
all those electoral votes.
:19:51
Get Andrew on the phone.
:19:53
Since we have a small window
for the Secretary of Housing,
:19:57
please hold your questions
until after the presentation.
:19:59
Gentlemen.
:20:01
Did you see the look
on my mom's face?
:20:02
I thought her head
was going to explode.
:20:04
Yeah, what did she say?
:20:05
That I should date women
like Melanie, not marry them.
:20:07
That's harsh.
- That's Mom.
:20:10
Thank you.
- Thanks a lot.
:20:12
We hope to have the Bronx Children's Hospital
open by fall 2003.
:20:15
Oh, speak of the devil.
Hello?
:20:18
So, have you two lovebirds
set a date?
:20:21
I'm pleading the Fifth.
:20:22
Okay, fine, just try to keep
your secrets. I dare you.
:20:24
Oh, at least you sound like
you're in a better mood.
:20:26
My approval rating
went up 2 points.
:20:28
It seems the public likes
being reminded I am a mother.
:20:31
God, always running for office.
:20:32
I'm only thinking of you.
Say, um...
:20:36
do you happen to have the Carmichaels'
number down there in Greenville?
:20:41
I thought perhaps
I should introduce myself.
:20:44
I would like to meet them first,
if you don't mind.
:20:46
You do realize the press
is going to be all over this.
:20:49
Happy couples don't sell.
:20:50
So if there are any skeletons
in her closet, Andrew,...
:20:54
we need to know about them.
