Oh, for God's sake, Ruth. It's just a pig.

Can I share a secret with you, Pearl?

Mother would throttle me

if she knew I was planning on attending.

But there's a dance audition this Saturday at our church

for a Christmas chorus line

to bring merriment to folks

throughout the state during the holidays.

Word is, they're putting together a troupe

and will be touring seven different cities

before the year ends.

Don't that sound exciting?

I would love so much to be a part of it.

So would I.

(GASPS) We should go together then.

But you can't tell a soul.

I would never.

Splendid. It'll be our secret.

MARGARET: Mitsy!

I better skedaddle.
