The Twilight Zone1959

Valerie:
I've been thinking about what you said... I mean about what your father said and well, i don't see why you're so concerned about him. He's dead! I mean, surely you've had other fathers. My mother's been married 11 times and personally I've liked the stepfathers better.

Marilyn Cuberle:
Valerie, please don't.

Valerie:
Look, i know you've had nine fathers since the first one, everybody marries everybody these days.

Marilyn Cuberle:
Valerie, stop!

Valerie:
I just don't see how anybody can stay married to the same husband for a hundred years! Besides, I've heard that your father was pretty dull...

Marilyn Cuberle:
Valerie, stop it! Stop talking about my father! Can't any of you understand? I loved him, I cared about him! He was good and he was kind and he cared about me; not what I wore, not the way I looked but what I thought, what I felt! He cared about himself and his dignity as a human being! Valerie, he didn't die in the Ganymede Incident, my father KILLED HIMSELF! Because when they took away his identity he had no reason to go on living!

Valerie:
[shocked] I just don't understand you, Marilyn!

Marilyn Cuberle:
...Valerie... can't you feel ANYTHING...?

Valerie:
Well of course, silly! Why I... well I feel good! I always feel good! Life is pretty, life is fun, I am all and all is one.

Marilyn Cuberle:
[half-laughing, half-crying hysterically] You can't understand, can you?... THEY CAN'T UNDERSTAND, THEY CAN'T UNDERSTAND!
