Cristy 5 Years Old:
Mimi said that you were the one born to help carry us on to success.
Joy:
No, Christie, Mimi was wrong. The world does not *give* you opportunities, the world destroys the opportunities. It breaks the heart. I should have listened to my mother, when I was 10 years old. I should have spent the rest of my life watching TV and hiding from the world like my mother. So I don't want to hear anymore about Mimi. She was wrong, she had her head in the clouds, and it was full of stupid ideas, and it gave me stupid ideas. But this?

Joy:
This stupid, stupid idea!

Mimi said that you were the one
born to help carry us on to success.
No, Christie, Mimi was wrong.
The world does not GIVE you opportunities,

TV and hiding from the world like my mother.
So I don't want
hear anymore about Mimi.
She was wrong,
she had her head in the clouds,
and it was full of stupid ideas,
and it gave me stupid ideas.
But this?
This stupid, stupid idea!
Mommy, don't tear them, no!
Christie, I'm sorry.
Christie, I'm so sorry.
Please, go to bed,
everybody, just go to bed.
- Goodnight, Mommie.
- Good night, Sweetheart, go to bed.
- I'm so sorry I failed you, Joy, I'm so sorry.
- Please, just go.
