[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. |
