- I'm listening.

- You wrote me that when you got home you and I were going to be married. If you wrote that once, you wrote it a hundred times. Isn't that true?

- Yes, but things are different now.

- I'll be all right. I just gotta work it out myself.

- I could help you, Homer, if you'd let me.

- I've gotta work it out myself.
