happened to you?
529
00:22:27,111 --> 00:22:29,412
I married
a gourmet cook.
530
00:22:29,414 --> 00:22:30,280
[LAUGHS]
531
00:22:31,449 --> 00:22:33,450
Looks like
she's in there with you.
532
00:22:40,124 --> 00:22:43,727
Listen, I know someone
who's waiting here all night
533
00:22:43,729 --> 00:22:44,995
to meet you again.
534
00:22:44,997 --> 00:22:46,230
Yeah? Who?
535
00:22:46,232 --> 00:22:48,398
My wife.
She used to be Edith Baines.
536
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,833
Edith Baines.
537
00:22:49,835 --> 00:22:51,835
That's right. I'm gonna get her
and bring her over.
538
00:22:51,837 --> 00:22:53,403
You stay right here, see?
539
00:22:53,405 --> 00:22:54,637
Don't let nobody move you.
540
00:22:57,775 --> 00:22:58,976
Hey, Edith! Edith?
541
00:22:58,978 --> 00:23:00,377
Hey, get away
from me here, huh.
542
00:23:00,379 --> 00:23:02,479
Will you get
out of the way?
543
00:23:02,481 --> 00:23:05,682
Edith... Edith,
there's somebody over here
544
00:23:05,684 --> 00:23:08,551
that you're gonna
be very happy to see.
545
00:23:08,553 --> 00:23:10,287
Step this way.
546
00:23:10,289 --> 00:23:11,788
I'll bet you'll never
recognize him.
547
00:23:14,025 --> 00:23:15,292
Buck Evans.
548
00:23:17,228 --> 00:23:19,963
Edith Baines.
549
00:23:19,965 --> 00:23:22,766
Oh, Buck!
550
00:23:22,768 --> 00:23:24,434
How'd you recognize me?
551
00:23:24,436 --> 00:23:26,904
I'd know you anywhere.
552
00:23:26,906 --> 00:23:30,173
Your eyes.
Your eyes are just the same.
553
00:23:30,175 --> 00:23:33,310
I can still see
right inside you.
554
00:23:33,312 --> 00:23:36,579
See, Archie?
Ain't he beautiful?
555
00:23:38,783 --> 00:23:41,318
Uh, nice to meet
your acquaintanceship there.
556
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,653
Can I just take my wife
over here for a minute?
557
00:23:43,655 --> 00:23:45,022
We'll see you, huh?
558
00:23:45,024 --> 00:23:46,823
Edith, Edith.
559
00:23:46,825 --> 00:23:49,759
I will never be able
to figure you out.
560
00:23:49,761 --> 00:23:53,696
You and me,
we look at the same guy,
561
00:23:53,698 --> 00:23:55,865
and you see a beautiful person.
562
00:23:55,867 --> 00:23:57,500
I see a blimp.
563
00:23:59,971 --> 00:24:04,241
Yeah.
Ain't that too bad?
564
00:24:04,243 --> 00:24:07,110
But, then,
you're beautiful too.
565
00:24:15,586 --> 00:24:18,488
Here we are.
We're home!
566
00:24:18,490 --> 00:24:21,491
They can see
that, Edith.
567
00:24:21,493 --> 00:24:22,759
Did you have
a good time?
568
00:24:22,761 --> 00:24:25,095
Oh, it was
wonderful.
569
00:24:25,097 --> 00:24:27,497
And Amelia says
it was so much fun
570
00:24:27,499 --> 00:24:28,698
we're gonna
have a reunion
571
00:24:28,700 --> 00:24:31,601
every 30 years
from now on.
572
00:24:33,471 --> 00:24:34,871
What'd you think
of the reunion, Arch?
573
00:24:34,873 --> 00:24:36,706
Well, I'll tell
you one thing.
574
00:24:36,708 --> 00:24:38,008
Your mother-in-law
575
00:24:38,010 --> 00:24:39,776
was the prettiest lady
in the whole crowd.
576
00:24:39,778 --> 00:24:41,845
Oh, Archie.
577
00:24:41,847 --> 00:24:43,413
Aw, don't lose
your head, Edith.
578
00:24:43,415 --> 00:24:45,849
There was an awful
lot of losers there.
579
00:25:01,732 --> 00:25:04,667
