Her father sits down disapproving ,she follows,and says'' c'mon Samara was a necessery life experience''she continues''my toast is to moving on''raising her glass and taking a zip.
''ah,right,the timeline''Wayen realizing what she's talking about.
''yeah,the timeline,c'mon dad you can't deny that every single thing mom told me to do was the right thing''as she leans closer she goes''summer camp,student counselor,trip to europe,i mean c'mon,it's the magic of my life''she finishes raising her glass once again.
