Gil:
No, No, No.
Inez:
Okay. He works in a nostalgia shop.
Carol:
What's a-- What's a nostalgia shop?
Paul:
Oh, not one of those stores where they sell Shirley Temple dolls and old radios? And I never know who buys that stuff. Who'd want it?
Carol:
I don't know.
Inez:
Well, people who live in the past, people who think that their lives would be happier if they lived in an earlier time.
Paul:
And just which era would you have preferred to live in, Miniver Cheevy?
Inez:
Paris in the '20s, in the rain.
Gil:
Wouldn't have been bad.
Inez:
When the rain wasn't acid rain
Paul:
I see. And no global warming, no TV and suicide bombing, and nuclear weapons, drug cartels.
Carol:
Usual menu of cliched horror stories.
