| ROY: | And you didn’t say a word? |
| NORMA: | Nothing. |
| ROY: | I see. You’re trying to tell me that a normal, healthy, intelligent twenty-one-year-old college graduate has suddenly decided to spend her wedding day locked in the bathroom? You must have said something! |
| NORMA: | Roy! What are you going to do? |
| ROY: | First, I’m getting the college graduate out of the bathroom. Then you and I are going to have a big talk! |
| NORMA: | What are you doing? |
| ROY: | Mimsey! This is your father. I want you out of the bathroom in five seconds! |
| NORMA: | Don’t threaten her. She’ll never come out if you threaten her. |
| ROY: | This is no time to be nice. Mimsey! Are you coming out or are we going to have the wedding in the bathroom? |
| NORMA: | Don’t yell. Everyone will hear you. |
| ROY: | How long do you think we can keep this a secret? Mimsey, you can’t stay in there forever! |
| NORMA: | Roy, will you please control yourself. |
| ROY: | Ok. I’ll control myself. You go downstairs and marry that short, skinny kid. What’s the matter with you? Don’t you realize what’s happening? |
| NORMA: | Yes. Our daughter is nervous, frightened and scared to get married. |
| ROY: | What is she scared of? |
| NORMA: | I don’t know. Maybe she has changed her mind about the whole thing. |
| ROY: | This is no time to change her mind. It’s costing me $8,000 for this wedding. Mimsey, open this door! |
| NORMA: | Is that all you care about? What it’s costing you for the wedding? Don’t you care about your daughter? |
| ROY: | Yes. I care. Maybe she’s not in there. |
| NORMA: | She’s in there. Oh, God. I think I’m having a heart attack. |
| ROY: | I don’t hear anything. Is there a window in there? Maybe she did something crazy! |
| NORMA: | That’s right. Tell a woman who is having a heart attack that her daughter has jumped out the window. |
| ROY: | Take a look through the keyhole. I want to make sure she’s in there. |
| NORMA: | She’s in there. I’m having a heart attack. Look, my hand is bouncing off my chest. |
| ROY: | Are you going to look and see if she’s ok or should I call the police? |
| NORMA: | Why don’t you look? |
| ROY: | Maybe she’s taking a bath. |
| NORMA: | Two minutes before her wedding? |
| ROY: | I thought she wasn’t getting married. |
| NORMA: | I would hear the water running if she were taking a bath. |
| ROY: | With that hat you couldn’t hear anything. Are you going to look to see if she’s in the bathroom? |
| NORMA: | I’ll look. I’ll look. Oh, my God! |
| ROY: | What’s the matter? |
| NORMA: | I ripped my stockings. |
