00:01:43 Here I am, miss.
00:05:05 When a girl goes to her wedding, she should look her best, shouldn't she?
00:09:13 - Why? Has something happened? - Yes, she, uh...
00:12:27 I can't imagine not waiting forever.
00:15:36 Funny.
00:22:35 Oh, isn't she sweet?
00:25:53 You know, Charlotte, you've changed.
00:28:57 Then shoot the whole bunch of them and be done with it and goodbye.
00:32:50 - I tried to think differently but I knew it. - Charlotte, how could you?
00:36:18 And I'd let her do it.

01:23:42 Yes, you think you ought to.
01:28:23 Thank you.
01:33:34 Bye. Bye-bye.
