Laura Reynolds[they're on the beach, along the Big Sur]I feel as alone as Robinson Crusoe. Even with the footprints of a man beside me.
Dr. Edward HewittYou should always have a man's footprints beside you, Laura.
Laura ReynoldsHow do you know I haven't always?
Dr. Edward HewittBecause you're afraid of them...
Laura ReynoldsBut I'm not as afraid as you think.
Dr. Edward HewittDo you think that one of these days Danny's going to feel somehow that you robbed him of a father?
Laura ReynoldsWell, that's a chance I'm gonna' have to take. Do you know something? If I were a devoted widow, and Danny's father were a dead war hero, would you be pitching me this bit about finding a second father to replace the dead one?
