00:00:02.880 --> 00:00:07.160 align:middle line:84%
"She Makes a List for
the Night's Replay"

00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:12.050 align:middle line:84%
That time he buried her legs
in the sand in South Carolina

00:00:12.050 --> 00:00:15.470 align:middle line:90%
and said, "Now I've got you."

00:00:15.470 --> 00:00:17.900 align:middle line:84%
That time he flirted
with another woman

00:00:17.900 --> 00:00:21.140 align:middle line:84%
at the restaurant, and she
cried but hadn't wanted to.

00:00:21.140 --> 00:00:25.070 align:middle line:84%
How he got on his knees and
dramatically begged until she

00:00:25.070 --> 00:00:26.570 align:middle line:90%
laughed.

00:00:26.570 --> 00:00:30.800 align:middle line:84%
The way he picked bits of fuzz
off her sweater and coats,

00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.140 align:middle line:90%
meticulous love.

00:00:33.140 --> 00:00:38.930 align:middle line:84%
His annoying obsession with
canned soups and Manwich,

00:00:38.930 --> 00:00:44.540 align:middle line:84%
maroon and red cans stacked
in the garage, "just in case."

00:00:44.540 --> 00:00:50.060 align:middle line:84%
The same five flannels followed
by the same five flannels.

00:00:50.060 --> 00:00:54.230 align:middle line:84%
That time they ordered oysters
in Orange Beach, Alabama,

00:00:54.230 --> 00:00:56.180 align:middle line:90%
and they were so--

00:00:56.180 --> 00:00:58.550 align:middle line:90%
there was no other word for it--

00:00:58.550 --> 00:01:00.500 align:middle line:90%
gargantuan.

00:01:00.500 --> 00:01:03.980 align:middle line:84%
They both said the
word, gargantuan.

00:01:03.980 --> 00:01:06.170 align:middle line:90%
They couldn't eat the oysters.

00:01:06.170 --> 00:01:10.370 align:middle line:84%
They put hot sauce on Saltines
and drank clearish beer

00:01:10.370 --> 00:01:12.140 align:middle line:90%
instead.

00:01:12.140 --> 00:01:15.440 align:middle line:84%
That time the car broke
down in the parking lot

00:01:15.440 --> 00:01:19.340 align:middle line:84%
of the Bob Evans, the smoke
coming out of the hood.

00:01:19.340 --> 00:01:21.380 align:middle line:90%
How broke they were.

00:01:21.380 --> 00:01:24.650 align:middle line:84%
How somehow she had made
him laugh while they waited

00:01:24.650 --> 00:01:28.100 align:middle line:84%
for the tow truck they'd put
on the already bloated credit

00:01:28.100 --> 00:01:29.600 align:middle line:90%
card.

00:01:29.600 --> 00:01:33.440 align:middle line:84%
The way her mother once
asked, if he was romantic.

00:01:33.440 --> 00:01:36.740 align:middle line:90%
"No," she said proudly.

00:01:36.740 --> 00:01:40.480 align:middle line:84%
How at night in their cool
bedroom with the overhead fan

00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:45.960 align:middle line:84%
on, even in winter, they held
hands as they went to sleep.

00:01:45.960 --> 00:01:50.960 align:middle line:84%
How she told him once, "I like
that we hold hands at night."

00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:55.700 align:middle line:84%
How he had smiled sleepily and
said, "Yes, like the Titanic."

00:01:55.700 --> 00:01:58.400 align:middle line:90%


00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:02.330 align:middle line:84%
How now when she sleeps,
there is always the image

00:02:02.330 --> 00:02:05.510 align:middle line:90%
of a ship sinking beneath them.

00:02:05.510 --> 00:02:10.240 align:middle line:84%
She shouldn't find it
comforting, but she does.

00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:11.000 align:middle line:90%
