Maggie Carpenter When I was walking down the aisle, I was walking toward somebody who didn't have any idea who I really was. And it was only half the other person's fault, because I had done everything to convince him that I was exactly what he wanted. So it was good that I didn't go through with it because it would have been a lie. But you - you knew the real me.
Ike Graham Yes, I did.
Maggie Carpenter I didn't. And you being the one at the end of the aisle didn't just fix that.

Maggie Carpenter Benedict.
Ike Graham Arnold.
Maggie Carpenter I love Eggs Benedict. I hate all the other kinds of eggs. I hate big weddings, with everybody staring. I'd like to get married on a weekday while everybody's at work. And if I ride off into the sunset, I want my own horse.

Ike Graham You're so lost, you don't even know what kind of eggs you like!
Ike Graham Yes! Yes! That's right, with the priest, you wanted scrambled. With the Dead Head, it was fried. With the other guy, the bug guy, it was poached. Now it's like, "Oh, egg whites only, thank you very much."

Ike Graham Maggie, what are you doing? You really want that guy up there to drag you up Annapurna for your honeymoon? You do not want to climb Annapurna!
Maggie Carpenter Yes, I do!
Ike Graham No, you don't. You want a man who'll lead you down the beach with his hands over your eyes, just so you can discover the feel of the sand under your feet. You want a guy that'll wake you up at dawn. He's just bursting to talk to you, can't wait another minute... just to find out what you'll say. Am I right?
[pause]
Maggie Carpenter Stop it. I am getting married on Sunday, and you are just trying to make me run. Because you're a cynical, exploitive, mean-hearted creep who wouldn't know real love if it bit him in the armpit! All you do is... is tear others down and laugh at them and criticize what they do because you're too afraid to do anything yourself. I read your columns. You never once wrote anything about yourself. I am not the only one that is lost, and you know it. Am I right?

Maggie Carpenter [beat] Stop.
Walter Carpenter What?
Maggie Carpenter Stop. Don't say another word like that.
Walter Carpenter Maggie, it was just a joke.
Maggie Carpenter No! It's humiliating, and it's gone on long enough. You may not like that you have a daughter with problems, but guess what? I don't like that I have a father who's drunk all the time.
