Lucy I'd like to get off the merry-go-round. Kyle Once we get up in the blue, I'm a different fella, a lot different from this character. I wouldn't admit this to anyone but you, but I drink too much. Lucy Nothing like this has ever happened to me before. It's an adventure. It's exciting. Mitch Are you looking for laughs? Or are you soul-searching? Lucy The latter, I guess. I think I'm beginning to know Kyle - and to like him. Mitch Well, in that case, I'm glad. Jasper It's about time you got hitched, isn't it? Mitch No, I-I have trouble enough finding oil. Jasper I sure wish you felt different about Marylee. Mitch We grew up together, like brother and sister. I just can't see it any other way.
