[00:02.538] MEDIUM ALISON: Dear Mom and Dad,
[00:03.844] Thanks for the care package. I was running out of granola bars so it came just in the nick of time.
[00:09.836] They sell a kind here I swear is made of paste...
[00:15.736] Nothing else worth writing home about. Har-Har.
[00:20.451] Al
[00:23.610] I could draw you some posters.
[00:25.723] JOAN: Nah, we need them tomorrow night.
[00:28.045] MEDIUM ALISON: I could do it right now!
[00:29.346] JOAN: Really?
[00:30.901] MEDIUM ALLISON: Yeah, just some simple drawing, right?
[00:33.786] JOAN: Sure.
[00:34.823] MEDIUM ALLISON: So, you want them to say...?
[00:37.421] JOAN: We just need some really good "No Nukes" posters.
[00:40.302] MEDIUM ALISON: Right. Okay.
[00:43.678] So I was thinking...maybe...maybe something like...
[00:49.187] JOAN: Oh. That's funny. That's really good.
[01:01.089] MEDIUM ALISON: This? No, this is just quick and stupid...
[01:08.301] JOAN: Who's this? In the photo?
[01:11.980] MEDIUM ALISON: My dad.
[01:13.023] JOAN: That's your dad?
[01:14.319] MEDIUM ALISON: Yeah!
[01:14.830] JOAN: He looks cool. Did he teach you how to draw cartoons?
[01:19.042] MEDIUM ALISON: Ooh, definitely not.
[01:21.127] JOAN: Why's that funny?
[01:22.697] MEDIUM ALISON: Oh, it's not funny; he's just more, I don't know, uh, refined?
[01:28.745] JOAN: I think it's amazing he's cool with you being a dyke.
[01:31.907] MEDIUM ALISON: What? Could we talk about something else?
[01:34.804] JOAN: Sure... Why?
[01:39.761] MEDIUM ALISON: Because I don't know how my parents feel about... I just figured it out myself.
[01:48.893] JOAN: Oh.
[01:50.463] MEDIUM ALISON: About two weeks ago...
[01:52.741] JOAN: Huh... With who?
[01:56.121] MEDIUM ALISON: "With who" what?
[01:57.918] JOAN: Who were you with?
[02:00.511] MEDIUM ALISON: Oh, nobody... Nobody! Oh my God. I'm so embarrassed. I was in a bookstore...
[02:07.355] JOAN: In a bookstore?! Nice!
[02:10.491] MEDIUM ALISON: What? No! Two weeks ago I was downtown. I just wandered into the bookstore. I was just browsing, and I picked up this book.
[02:19.213] JOAN: Oh! Word is out.
[02:22.094] MEDIUM ALISON: I was like, "Oh interviews, this looks interesting" then I was like, "These people are all..uh..."
[02:31.483] JOAN: Gay?
[02:32.499] MEDIUM ALISON: Yes, gay. And then I was like "Oh my God.
[02:36.619] I'm a lesbian." (JOAN: A dyke.) —Yes, a dyke. Yes.
[02:40.006] And I totally flipped out and shoved the book back on the shelf and then I left... But then I came the next day and bought the book, and then I came back the next day and bought all the other books in that section, and then I made myself go to the meeting at the Gay Union, and then, uh well...and then... it's now...
[02:58.103] Hi.
[03:03.551] JOAN: Hello.
[03:05.639] That's a powerful book.
[03:07.473] MEDIUM ALISON: It is.
[03:13.510] JOAN: So, I should probably go.
[03:15.597] MEDIUM ALISON: Okay.
[03:17.677] JOAN: Will I see you at the union meeting tomorrow afternoon?
[03:20.749] MEDIUM ALISON: Uh, yeah. I'll be at the meeting. I'll bring those posters. Finish 'em up.
[03:25.714] JOAN: Cool. See you then. Bye, Alison.
[03:29.909] MEDIUM ALISON: Bye, Joan.
