[00:00.01] 20-3 ACT III
[00:08.30] I love my school. I have so many good friends there now.
[00:11.78] I wouldn't miss a day even if I were really sick.
[00:15.13] Come and sit down for a minute, Michelle.
[00:20.53] I'd like to talk to you about something.
[00:23.58] Something important.
[00:25.94] What's wrong, Susan?
[00:27.33] Oh, there's nothing wrong, Michelle.
[00:29.15] But your daddy and I are talking about something
[00:31.05] that I'd like your opinion about.
[00:33.59] I know. I heard you talking about it
[00:36.76] the other night when I was trying on my new clothes.
[00:39.59] It's about moving to Los Angeles.
[00:42.87] You're right. How do you feel about it?
[00:47.17] Well, I really wouldn't want to move, but ...
[00:52.28] But?
[00:54.32] But if you and Daddy wanted to,
[00:56.37] I guess you know what's best for the family and for me.
[01:00.36] That's very considerate of you, Michelle.
[01:02.39] But what about your friends?
[01:04.21] I'd miss them a lot,
[01:06.19] but I know what it feels like to miss someone.
[01:09.51] Honey, we don't have to move
[01:12.41] if you're not going to be happy about it.
[01:14.19] Does Daddy want to move?
[01:16.06] I think so. He's going to tell us tonight about the job offer.
[01:25.68] Well, how was everybody's day today?
[01:29.76] Michelle was chosen to do
[01:31.51] the school poster for the play this year.
[01:33.61] Congratulations, Michelle! That's something!
[01:37.00] And how was your day, Susan?
[01:39.28] I see you're in a good mood.
[01:41.38] Why don't you tell us about your day.
[01:44.65] I met with Bill York.
[01:47.44] It's OK to talk about it, Harry.
[01:49.47] Michelle knows all about it.
[01:51.47] Really?
[01:52.83] Really, Harry.
[01:54.61] Michelle and I have all kinds of feelings
[01:56.60] about leaving New York, the family, and friends.
[01:59.83] But if you think you should take the job, we're behind you.
[02:04.99] What about Michelle's school?
[02:06.40] We'll move after the school term.
[02:09.15] What about her new friends?
[02:10.93] I'll make new friends wherever we are as long as we're together.
[02:17.07] We're a family, Harry.
[02:18.89] Whatever you think is right for you is right for us.
[02:23.12] I am so touched. The two of you are really something.
[02:28.69] We love you, Daddy.
[02:30.79] And I love you.
[02:32.80] OK. Now, tell us about your talk with Mr. York.
[02:37.41] Did you take the job?
[02:38.28] Nope.
[02:39.27] What?
[02:40.68] No? You didn't take it?
[02:42.83] No, I did not take the job.
[02:45.75] But, Daddy, I thought ...
[02:47.25] Harry, you didn't turn it down because of me ...
[02:48.88] Or me?
[02:50.15] No, no. I turned it down because of me.
[02:53.56] How's that?
[02:54.42] Well, I began to think about you and about Michelle,
[02:59.16] and then I asked myself,
[03:00.48] do I really want to work for the biggest company in the country?
[03:04.46] And?
[03:05.82] And I don't.
[03:07.16] I went into business for myself
[03:08.55] because I like being my own boss.
[03:11.92] I run my own company. I'm a big fish in a little pond.
[03:15.96] I'm not really sure I want to be a little fish in a big pond.
[03:18.36] Oh, Daddy, does that mean we don't have to move?
[03:22.21] That's right, sweetheart.
[03:24.34] Are you sure?
[03:26.51] I couldn't be more sure, Susan.
[03:29.94] I'm glad if you are, Harry.
[03:32.02] And besides,
[03:33.31] how could I live in Los Angeles
[03:35.43] when all my favorite people live here?
[03:38.07] Your favorite people?
[03:39.69] Who's that?
[03:41.37] The Stewart family, of course.
