She basically cut my cheekCopy !req

62. I don't know.
- I think she came
at the wrong category.Copy !req
63. This was not Butch Queen Up
in Drags, right? Uh...Copy !req
64. Butch queen, huh? So is this
what sisterhood looks like?Copy !req
65. A bunch of birds
clipping each other's wings?Copy !req
66. Well, first off,
you have to be a girlCopy !req
67. to be a sister, mister.Copy !req
68. And who are you to talk?Copy !req
69. You are so ghastly,Copy !req
70. you could walk into
the haunted houseCopy !req
71. and leave with
a job application.Copy !req
72. Those reads are so tired,Copy !req
73. - like that sad rag
on top of your head. Ah!Copy !req
74. Those are fighting words.
You want to brawl?Copy !req
75. - Boy, bring it.
- Now, Kisha.Copy !req
76. Who are you calling a boy?Copy !req
77. Your real hair's so short,
you could roll it with rice.Copy !req
78. - And what is that
on your lips, Leesa?Copy !req
79. Oh, it's just your favorite
lip gloss. Sperm.Copy !req
80. Why don't you low-rent,
bad-handjob-giving hookersCopy !req
81. run back to the pier
where you belongCopy !req
82. with the rest
of the city vermin.Copy !req
83. Um... thank you, Miss Elektra.Copy !req
84. I'm sorry a legend like you
had to beCopy !req
85. in the presence
of such pettiness.Copy !req
86. I'm surprised you know who I am.Copy !req
87. Clearly, this was
your first ball.Copy !req
88. I'm grateful
you came to my rescue,Copy !req
89. considering how poorly I scored.Copy !req
90. Anyways, I'll get out of your
hair and I'll be on my way.Copy !req
91. I cannot hear
a thing you're sayingCopy !req
92. over the protests
of your stomach.Copy !req
93. When did you last eat?Copy !req
94. Mmm.Copy !req
95. There really is no rush.Copy !req
96. Indigestion isn't flattering.Copy !req
97. I'm sorry.Copy !req
98. I haven't had something warm
in a minute.Copy !req
99. So what's your story?Copy !req
100. Let me guess.Copy !req
101. Mommy kicked you out
after catching you in a dress.Copy !req
102. Where are you staying?Copy !req
103. Usually at Washington Square.Copy !req
104. Some nights I get a bed
at the youth shelter.Copy !req
105. What possessed you tonight?Copy !req
106. I wanted to be pretty,
to be seen.Copy !req
107. To belong, I guess.Copy !req
108. I thought this community
would see me and want me.Copy !req
109. I know I wasn't great,Copy !req
110. and I know I don't have my look
all the way put together,Copy !req
111. but it felt warm
under those lights.Copy !req
112. You do have potential.Copy !req
113. We just have to work on
your look before you everCopy !req
114. step foot in front of
those shady bitches.Copy !req
115. Can I be honest with you?Copy !req
116. I don't think I'll ever be
as real as you.Copy !req
117. No one questions you
or looks at you like they do me.Copy !req
118. It's not that I give a fuck
about what people think,Copy !req
119. but I do want to be seen
and respected as a woman.Copy !req
120. That's who I see myself to be.Copy !req
121. You think I just woke up one day
and poof, I look like this? No.Copy !req
122. It takes work, drive,
sacrifice to be a woman.Copy !req
123. You have something
rarer than beauty, though.Copy !req
124. You have heart, and you're not
afraid to lead with it.Copy !req
125. That quality
will get you everything.Copy !req
126. Now, what is it you want,
my child?Copy !req
127. I don't want to be cold again.Copy !req
128. And I don't want to be
laughed at again.Copy !req
129. I want to be real.Copy !req
130. You're coming home with mother.Copy !req
131. - Check, please.Copy !req
132. No.Copy !req
133. I am your mother.Copy !req
134. The category is...Copy !req
135. Live...Copy !req
136. Work...Copy !req
137. Pose!Copy !req
138. Damn socks.Copy !req
139. Papi.Copy !req
140. - Papi.Copy !req
141. - I told you to dust out
the living area.
- I did.Copy !req
142. So how come those shelves still
got an inch of filth on them?Copy !req
143. You wanted me to do
the shelves, too?Copy !req
144. I'm your mother, not your maid.Copy !req
145. Spring cleaning is gonna be
a tradition around hereCopy !req
146. just like any other holiday.Copy !req
147. I like Christmas better.Copy !req
148. How'd you clean this room
so fast?Copy !req
149. I'm efficient.Copy !req
150. - Oh, get your ass up
and clean this room right.Copy !req
151. And why are you back?Copy !req
152. I thought your yuppie white boy
got you a fancy apartment.Copy !req
153. She mad at him 'cause he lame.Copy !req
154. This is a A-B conversation,Copy !req
155. so "C" your way out.Copy !req
156. No, don't tell me.Copy !req
157. You asked him to leave his wife
and he said no.Copy !req
158. Not exactly.Copy !req
159. He's committed to her.
And that's the problem.Copy !req
160. He needs to know
I ain't no side chick.Copy !req
161. And if he wants Angel,
he needs to commit, full time.Copy !req
162. So let me get this straight.Copy !req
163. To prove how mad you are,Copy !req
164. you moved out of
your luxury co-opCopy !req
165. to come back here
in this creakyCopy !req
166. Yup. I'm playing hard to get.Copy !req
167. And how does that affect him?Copy !req
168. He's gonna miss me so bad,Copy !req
169. he is going to beg me
to come back.Copy !req
170. We're not done here.Copy !req
171. Hello?Copy !req
172. Are you okay?
WhatCopy !req
173. That was a ca...Copy !req
174. a call from my friend
from-from my old hood.Copy !req
175. My mother died.Copy !req
176. My mother died.Copy !req
177. Is Carmen home?Copy !req
178. Ma!Copy !req
179. Some lady's at the door for you.Copy !req
180. Who is it?Copy !req
181. Not sure I'd recognize youCopy !req
182. if we walked past each other
in Key Food.Copy !req
183. - It's my brother!Copy !req
184. Why didn't you call
to tell me that Mami died?Copy !req
185. I sent you a Christmas card
with my number and everything.Copy !req
186. Must've got lost in the mail.Copy !req
187. I'll be there at
the funeral home on Thursday.Copy !req
188. I was one of her kids, too.Copy !req
189. You made your choice, Mateo.Copy !req
190. - That's not my name, Carmen.
- Whatever you're
calling yourself,Copy !req
191. this ain't the time
for your confusion.Copy !req
192. Mami suffered enough.Copy !req
193. You're still blaming me
for her pain.Copy !req
194. Where were you when Mami
had all her appointments?Copy !req
195. - Or when she was up
all night in pain?
- You're right!Copy !req
196. I wasn't around, and I'm sorry.Copy !req
197. But how am I
supposed to show up?Copy !req
198. You won't even invite me in.Copy !req
199. I don't know what you are.Copy !req
200. Tell me how to explainCopy !req
201. to a ten-year-old
that her uncle is gay,Copy !req
202. and runs around
in women's clothes.Copy !req
203. You tell her the truth.Copy !req
204. You tell her that I am a woman.Copy !req
205. And how am I supposed
to explain to the familyCopy !req
206. that you're not dead?Copy !req
207. You told them I died?Copy !req
208. No. Mami did.Copy !req
209. Right.Copy !req
210. I pray for you, Mateo.Copy !req
211. You save your prayers for
someone who actually needs them.Copy !req
212. Ooh, ooh!Copy !req
213. My cooking is as good
as the Puerto Rican restaurant.Copy !req
214. Yeah. It's just missing
a little something.Copy !req
215. This is the recipe you gave me.Copy !req
216. It takes a couple
of times to perfect.Copy !req
217. My mother made
the best pasteles.Copy !req
218. I loved our kitchen time.Copy !req
219. When you're competing with two
older siblings for attention,Copy !req
220. you don't get
a lot of alone moments.Copy !req
221. But cooking?Copy !req
222. That was our special time.Copy !req
223. Girl, it can't taste that bad.Copy !req
224. I miss her.Copy !req
225. You'll always have the memories.Copy !req
226. Yeah. The good and the bad.Copy !req
227. Yes, ma'am.Copy !req
228. You know, that's the burden
of having a parent.Copy !req
229. They haven't a clue
what they're doing.Copy !req
230. And every mistake they make
chips away at us.Copy !req
231. As we get older, we got to glue
the pieces back together.Copy !req
232. And we can blame them.Copy !req
233. But here's the thing.Copy !req
234. They're human.Copy !req
235. They make mistakes.Copy !req
236. When my daddy died, I...Copy !req
237. I went through it.Copy !req
238. I blamed myself for all the...Copy !req
239. black eyesCopy !req
240. and lost time.Copy !req
241. Have you found forgiveness?Copy !req
242. Oh, it depends on the day.Copy !req
243. I feel you.Copy !req
244. I don't know, Pray, it just...Copy !req
245. it don't feel right,
attending the funeralCopy !req
246. of a woman who rejected me.Copy !req
247. You're a mother now.
You have to be an example.Copy !req
248. You got to teach these kids
how to handle death.Copy !req
249. Pray Tell, all my relatives
will be there.Copy !req
250. I don't need the drama.Copy !req
251. You have us now.Copy !req
252. Your real family.Copy !req
253. And we will be standing there
right beside you.Copy !req
254. Girl...Copy !req
255. Oh, God, I wish that I would've
gone to my father's funeral.Copy !req
256. Maybe the wounds
would've healed quicker.Copy !req
257. They started a while ago.Copy !req
258. No such thing as late
when you close like I do.Copy !req
259. Mr. Trump decided
to join the meeting.Copy !req
260. Shit.Copy !req
261. Shit, shit, shit, shit.Copy !req
262. Hey. Boss still in there?Copy !req
263. No. He asked about you, though.Copy !req
264. Nice work, Stan. Congrats.Copy !req
265. Thanks.
- Let's get a bite at
the Oak Room later this week.Copy !req
266. Congrats for what?Copy !req
267. The boy wonder got a promotion.Copy !req
268. We get to see how big
his dick is in the VP bathroom.Copy !req
269. - See you.Copy !req
270. How long has this been

273. I hired you, New Jersey.Copy !req
274. Are you in on
the Plaza Hotel deal now?Copy !req
275. Yeah.Copy !req
276. I thought you would
be happy about it.Copy !req
277. It's good when a bet
you make pays off.Copy !req
278. Why the fuck
would I be happy about it?Copy !req
279. Do you fucking know me at all?Copy !req
280. There are only so many points
in a deal like the Plaza.Copy !req
281. You coming on that dealCopy !req
282. is you literally stealing money
from my pocket.Copy !req
283. This is a zero-sum game to me.Copy !req
284. Matt.Copy !req
285. I'm grateful to you.Copy !req
286. I learn a lot from you,Copy !req
287. and the last thing
I wanted to do hereCopy !req

297. Your hair has to pass.Copy !req
298. Your clothes have to pass.Copy !req
299. Your makeup has to pass.Copy !req
300. Your face has to pass.Copy !req
301. Passing is your gateway
into the mainstream.Copy !req
302. You want an invitation
into that magical world?Copy !req
303. You had best come immaculate.Copy !req
304. This is a category
for real women only.Copy !req

306. ready to sing
the "Theme to Mahogany,"Copy !req
307. don't you step foot
on that floor.Copy !req
308. God hath bestowed upon you
a great many gifts.Copy !req
309. Charm, beauty, sensuality.Copy !req
310. But the thing
that you can thank Him forCopy !req
311. is that He made you a woman.Copy !req

he's leaving early.Copy !req
324. Sloppiness.Copy !req
325. Don't act like this
is coming out of the blue.Copy !req
326. When I was here at Christmas,
you were suspecting something.Copy !req
327. When you were here on Christmas,
you kissed me.Copy !req
328. I believe you,
I just don't trust you.Copy !req
329. That's where she lives.Copy !req
330. I followed him after work.Copy !req
331. My number's on the other side
of that card.Copy !req
332. Call me if you need to talk.Copy !req
333. Or if you just want to come
into the city and grab a drink.Copy !req
334. Even if I wasn't with Stan,Copy !req
335. I would never be with you.Copy !req
336. I want you to know that.Copy !req
337. I'm not just some
dopey Jersey housewife.Copy !req

423. Ten, ten, ten, ten, ten.Copy !req
424. Oh, work it out.Copy !req
425. First runner up,
House of Mugler.Copy !req
426. Grand prize, House of Abundance.Copy !req
427. Yes, motherfuckers!Copy !req
428. We did it.Copy !req
429. The cards never lie, my darling.Copy !req
430. The cards never lie.Copy !req
431. Behold, Miss Lulu
and Miss Candy,Copy !req
432. two up-and-coming mothers
in the making.Copy !req
433. Miss Elektra,Copy !req
434. you better get on up
out of that hospital bedCopy !req
435. and come on
and reclaim your house.Copy !req
436. Miss Elektra,
you have a visitor.Copy !req
437. Is now a good time?Copy !req
438. Good time?
More like it's about time.Copy !req
439. What the fuck
are you doing here?Copy !req
440. Is there a problem?Copy !req
441. No problem. That's just the way
she speaks when she's happy.Copy !req
442. She can stay.
As the World Turns is overCopy !req
443. and television is a wasteland
until the evening news.Copy !req
444. Who sent you these?Copy !req
445. - My gentleman friend.
- Nah, if they were from him,Copy !req
446. this whole room would be
filled with them.Copy !req
447. I'm guessing you bought those
for yourself.Copy !req
448. You're the last person
I expected to see here.Copy !req
449. Isn't there a sale going on
down at the PaylessCopy !req
450. you should be attending?Copy !req
451. Oh, look at you.
Still talking big gameCopy !req
452. even though you just
went through the mostCopy !req
453. meaningful experience
in your lifeCopy !req
454. and not one person has come
to celebrate with youCopy !req
455. or look after you
while you're in pain.Copy !req
456. Don't think they won't pay
for their mistreatment.Copy !req
457. See, that's your problem.Copy !req
458. This whole room should be filled
with laughing girlsCopy !req
459. and balloons and children
doing their mother's hair.Copy !req
460. But all anyone wants
to give you is payback.Copy !req
461. You're a terrible mother.Copy !req
462. And that's exactly what you get.Copy !req
463. My legendary house
and its childrenCopy !req
464. have snagged more trophies
than anyone.Copy !req
465. But you're not kind.Copy !req
466. You don't care
for them, Elektra.Copy !req
467. You're not walking the walk
in our community.Copy !req
468. You're rich. You're beautiful.Copy !req
469. You pass.Copy !req
470. And you think that makes you
better than us.Copy !req
471. Because I am.Copy !req
472. I have always been a survivor.Copy !req
473. - I wouldn't bet against me.
- I pity you.Copy !req
474. Life comes
for all of us, Elektra.Copy !req
475. And it comes hardest
for the onesCopy !req
476. who think they're above it all.Copy !req
477. Is this why you're here?Copy !req
478. To be the little devil
on my shoulderCopy !req
479. - No.Copy !req
480. I'm here because in my life
I've had two mothers.Copy !req
481. The one that brought me
into this world and you.Copy !req
482. The first one...Copy !req
483. the first one died
just this week...Copy !req
484. before she could forgive me,
before I could forgive her.Copy !req
485. And you and I,
we got our problems.Copy !req
486. Enough water under the bridge
to drown this whole city.Copy !req
487. And the world may have
destroyed the version of youCopy !req
488. who saved me that night
outside the ballCopy !req
489. and took me under your wing,Copy !req
490. but you're the only mother
I have left.Copy !req
491. You may be a terrible mother,
but that don't meanCopy !req
492. I can't be the loving daughter
I want to be.Copy !req
493. I'll call a nurse to get a vase
for those flowers,Copy !req
494. even though they're from a deli.Copy !req
495. So how does it feel?Copy !req
496. It hurts worse
than I ever imagined.Copy !req
497. But it also feels betterCopy !req
498. than I've ever dreamed.Copy !req
499. We made a mistake coming.Copy !req
500. This is not about them.Copy !req
501. You came to make peace
with your mama.Copy !req
502. Come on.Copy !req
503. Come on, come on, come on.Copy !req
504. What are you doing here?Copy !req
505. I have a right to be here
to say good-bye.Copy !req
506. You need to go. Now.Copy !req
507. Manuel, get off.Copy !req
508. Manny, por favor, not today.Copy !req
509. Let him say good-bye
and then he'll go.Copy !req
510. Kindness doesn't
cost you anything.Copy !req
511. Let her say good-bye.Copy !req
512. Take your time, baby.Copy !req
513. Hi, Mami.Copy !req
514. It's been a while.Copy !req
515. I'm... I'm a mother now.Copy !req
516. I got a house of kids.Copy !req
517. Pains in my ass, too.Copy !req
518. So I hope, finally,
you're proud of me,Copy !req
519. wherever you are.Copy !req
520. I said some messed-up thingsCopy !req
521. the last time we spoke.Copy !req
522. And I hope you know
that I'll always love you.Copy !req
523. I know you didn't know
how to raise a child like me.Copy !req
524. You tried your best,Copy !req
525. and I want you to know
that I forgive youCopy !req
526. and... I love you.Copy !req
527. Let's go.Copy !req
528. I can't believe Mateo grew up
to be a transvestite.Copy !req
529. - Pobrecito needs a better wig.
- A child lostCopy !req
530. her mother today,
and I would expectCopy !req
531. someone who espouses
the word of the LordCopy !req
532. to have a little bit
more compassion.Copy !req
533. She's not defined
by that wig on her headCopy !req
534. any more than you are
by that frizzy perm.Copy !req
535. You're so strong.Copy !req
536. Well, I couldn't have done it.Copy !req
537. I would've been too scared.Copy !req
538. You maintained your dignity
and I'm proud of you.Copy !req
539. - It's okay. It's okay.Copy !req
540. That's all right. Let it out.Copy !req
541. - Let it out.
- Yo, I can call my homeboyCopy !req
542. to jump whoever you want
for, like, a Benjamin.Copy !req
543. - Boy.
- I'm for reals.Copy !req
544. - Nah, we good. We all good.
Mateo.Copy !req
545. My name is Blanca now.Copy !req
546. Blanca.Copy !req
547. There's a gathering
at your mother's after the wake.Copy !req
548. You should come.Copy !req
549. Have some food.Copy !req
550. So when was the last time
you were here?Copy !req
551. Um... October 30, 1982.Copy !req
552. Oh.Copy !req
553. Did she ever talk
about what happened?Copy !req
554. No. Not to me.Copy !req
555. My sister was always
very private with her emotions.Copy !req
556. Except for when
she was cooking.Copy !req
557. - That's how she expressed love.Copy !req
558. Don't I know it.
Have you seen these nalgas?Copy !req
559. But you, you're so skinny,
are you getting enough to eat?Copy !req
560. - I think I...
- I mean, come on, look at this.Copy !req
561. There's no nalgas there.
What's going on?Copy !req
562. Come, make yourself a nice, big
plate. There's plenty of food.Copy !req
563. - I'm making a plate to go.Copy !req
564. What's that?Copy !req
565. Mami's recipes.
I'm gonna take it.Copy !req
566. Nah, put it back.Copy !req
567. Carmen and I haven't decided
what we're sellingCopy !req
568. and what we're giving away.Copy !req
569. You can do whatever you want
with the rest of her stuff.Copy !req
570. I just want the notebook.Copy !req
571. Just put the notebook back.Copy !req
572. I can't have her recipes,Copy !req
573. but you're already
sporting her jewelry?Copy !req
574. Mami gave her that
before she died.Copy !req
575. If you'd have been a better son,
she would've left you something.Copy !req
576. Aren't you the one that they had
to take to rehab twice?Copy !req
577. Nobody wants you here,
child molester.Copy !req
578. I know all about how you fags
corrupt kids.Copy !req
579. Mami, what's happening?Copy !req
580. Xiomara,
Go to your room.Copy !req
581. You see what you're doing?Copy !req
582. Upsetting everybody?Copy !req
583. Manny, that's enough.
You should go.Copy !req
584. We should have gone
to the hospital.Copy !req
585. Boy, shut up.Copy !req
586. What the hell?Copy !req
587. Look who we have here—Copy !req
588. my victorious children.Copy !req
589. What's all this?Copy !req
590. Just a little welcome-home feast
for my childrenCopy !req
591. who think so well of me
that they abandoned meCopy !req
592. after I've undergone one of
the most monumental operationsCopy !req
593. a woman could ever have.Copy !req
594. I wanted to be there,
Mother, I-I promise.Copy !req
595. My sweet child, I know.Copy !req
596. Now what say you, LuluCopy !req
597. I ain't got shit to say.Copy !req
598. Or to apologize for.Copy !req
599. I agree, daughter.Copy !req
600. At first, I must admit,
I was fuming so muchCopy !req
601. in my recovery suite
that I ran a fever.Copy !req
602. But then I realized,Copy !req
603. thanks to some guidance
from an old friend,Copy !req
604. that I was getting all of the
love and attention I deserved.Copy !req
605. None.Copy !req
606. I gave you children nothingCopy !req
607. and expected everything
in return.Copy !req
608. I'm a hard bitch.Copy !req
609. But mothers aren't supposed
to be hard all the time.Copy !req
610. They need to spread
the sugar around sometimes.Copy !req
611. That don't look like sugar.Copy !req
612. Sloppy joe.Copy !req
613. Is ground beef the only thing
you know how to cook?Copy !req
614. I feel like I'm starting
to smell like a hamburger.Copy !req
615. And that ain't cute.Copy !req
616. It sure ain't. But guess what?Copy !req
617. It's better than what you was
eating on that park bench.Copy !req
618. I like ground beef.Copy !req
619. You could do meatloaf, tacos,
Hamburger Helper.Copy !req
620. Enough about the beef.
It's time to get serious.Copy !req
621. This Mother's Day
has reminded meCopy !req
622. of how I've fallen short
with you children.Copy !req
623. I know I've lost your trust.
I'm going to earn it backCopy !req
624. the best way we,
the House of Abundance,Copy !req
625. knows how.Copy !req
626. We will be triumphant
at the Mother's Day ball.Copy !req
627. Lemar, rack, please.Copy !req
628. Bitch, what got into you?Copy !req
629. Each of my children will be
draped in luxurious fineries.Copy !req
630. Ooh, this is me.
Bitch, this is from Saks.Copy !req
631. And Bergdorf's.Copy !req
632. These feathers is mad dingy.Copy !req
633. - It's fuchsia.Copy !req
634. Where did Pray pluck them from?Copy !req
635. It looks like one
of the dead pigeonsCopy !req
636. - floating in the East River.
- Oh, y'all are really trying me.Copy !req
637. I cannot wait for our
triumphant return to the stage.Copy !req
638. We are well on our way to being
the greatest of all time.Copy !req
639. And the way to do that
is to crush our enemiesCopy !req
640. until their bones are dustCopy !req
641. and their names are forgotten.Copy !req
642. Starting with those upstarts,
Evangelista.Copy !req
643. We got to do better than thisCopy !req
644. if we're gonna beat
post-op Elektra.Copy !req
645. You know she's gonna be
flaunting her new puss smellCopy !req
646. all up in them judges' noses.Copy !req
647. Nobody in ballroom
wants to smell that.Copy !req
648. Plus, we'll have heart,
a real purpose as a house.Copy !req
649. We gonna walk the Mother's Day
ball in honor of my mother.Copy !req
650. I know she wasn't perfect,
but...Copy !req
651. she's deserving of remembrance.Copy !req
652. And I loved her.Copy !req
653. And I know my children are gonna
show out for me for her.Copy !req
654. I'm all right.Copy !req
655. We got you.Copy !req
656. I'm sure a little soak
in some DawnCopy !req
657. - will get the stains right out.Copy !req
658. Right?Copy !req
659. Blanca.Copy !req
660. We are going to have a feast
before the ball tonight.Copy !req
661. I need y'all to have y'all
energy to slay the competition.Copy !req
662. I don't think
this recipe is right.Copy !req
663. It is definitely
missing something.Copy !req
664. You added the eggs
and the butter?Copy !req
665. Yes.Copy !req
666. We should've just got
Aunt Jemima.Copy !req
667. It's two ingredients.Copy !req
668. It's too nasty is what it is.Copy !req
669. - Mm.Copy !req
670. Listen, boy, keep stirring.
It should thin out.Copy !req
671. I'll be right back.Copy !req
672. What you doing here?Copy !req
673. I wanted to bring this to you.Copy !req
674. I'm never gonna use it
and Manny don't cook.Copy !req
675. Well, don't you want to use this
to teach Xiomara?Copy !req
676. We're making our own
mother-daughter memories.Copy !req
677. You and Mami were the ones
who loved to be in the kitchen.Copy !req
678. You should have it.Copy !req
679. I lied.Copy !req
680. Mami talked about you.Copy !req
681. Right up till the end.Copy !req
682. Well, what did she say?Copy !req
683. She had a lot of regret
that she didn't get it right.Copy !req
684. She didn't believe in your
choice and what you were doing,Copy !req
685. but she loved you.Copy !req
686. I just wish
she would've told me that.Copy !req
687. That's not who she was.Copy !req
688. She never asked me to stay home
and take care of you.Copy !req
689. I made a choice.Copy !req
690. I never even got a thank-you.Copy !req
691. Thank you.Copy !req
692. For everything.Copy !req
693. Do you want to come in?Copy !req
694. - We cooking breakfast.

705. Mm. How much do you love me?Copy !req
706. This much!Copy !req
707. - Wow.
- More than the whole wide world.Copy !req
708. Ooh, hoo, hoo.Copy !req
709. Will you love me forever?Copy !req
710. I will love you forever.Copy !req
711. Don't ever forget that.Copy !req
712. Blanca, I need your help.Copy !req
713. This batter is still thick.Copy !req
714. Did you put milk?Copy !req
715. Oh, my goodness.
I forgot the milk.Copy !req
716. Ah, that's enough.Copy !req
717. Give me this.Copy !req
718. - Look at that.

what it was missing.Copy !req
719. Get ready
