Helen:
My mother was very beautiful, wasn't she, Cap? Capt. January: Mighty pretty, Star, according to her pictures. Helen: We're awfully lucky, aren't we? Capt. January: Lucky? Helen: I'd never have known what my mother looked like if it wasn't for that trunk. Did you swim out to get it, too? Capt. January: No, it just washed ashore. See more » |
