Dad:There’s my girl. Honey, I want you to meet a friend of mine. Hal, this is Meredith Blake.

Meredith:Hi.

Annie:Hi, Meredith Blake.

Meredith:Wow. I can’t believe I’m finally meeting the famous Hallie. I have looked forward to this all summer.

Annie:Really? Well, here I am.

Meredith:Oh, Nicky, she’s adorable! You know, the way your father talked about you, I expected to meet a little girl, but you are so grown-up.

Annie:I’ll be 12 soon. How old are you?

Meredith:Twenty-six.

Annie:Only 15 years older than me. How old are you, again, Dad?

Dad:Wow! Suddenly, you’re so interested in math. Look, I’m gonna go inside. I’m gonna get some more chili, maybe a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

Annie:What are we celebrating?

Meredith:Your homecoming, of course.

Dad:Be right back.

Meredith:Meredith Blake. Hello, Reverend Mosby.

Meredith:Mm-hmm. Of course. No, I understand it’s for a local charity? Oh, yes. I am writing it all down.

Meredith:Okay, it sounds very worthwhile. I agree. But, unfortunately, I see that Mr. Parker is going to be out of the country on those days.

Meredith:Yes. Absolutely. l will be sure to mention it to him. Thank you.

Meredith:So, how was camp, Hal? Was it fabulous?

Annie:My dad’s going out of the country?

Meredith:Oh, no. I just had to tell a little white lie to get him out of something.

Meredith:You know, I have never heard a man talk about his daughter the way Nicky talks about you. You two are obviously incredibly close.

Annie:Well, you know, we’re closer than close. We’re all each other has.

Annie:Sorry. Did I get you wet, Mer?

Meredith:Just a little, Hal.

Meredith:Hey. Guess what? Your daddy took me riding the other day, and he let me ride your horse. I hope that’s okay with you.

Annie:Oh, sure. She’s probably used to strange women riding her. Not that you’re strange or anything. Actually, compared to the others, you are relatively normal.

Meredith:Others? What others?

Annie:You want the 411?

Meredith:What’s the 411?

Annie:The information, the lowdown on other women. Can’t say I blame you. I’d wanna know if I was number 28, I mean, 29 in a man’s life.

Meredith:I’m number 29?

Annie:Yeah. It’s always the same routine, horseback riding through the vineyards, romantic dinners with his special reserved label wine, moonlight swims.

Dad:Here we go, a bottle of my special reserve label. So, did you girls find something to talk about while I was gone?

Dad:So mean yes?

Meredith:It sure does.

Mom:Will somebody grab that, please?

Martin:James residence. Annie?

Hallie:Yes, Martin.

Martin:Dear. It sounds just like you on the phone. I’m sorry. To whom did you wish to speak?

Martin:Annie? Of course. One moment, please. A Mildred Plotker for you. Sounds just like your twin.

Hallie:My twin? Very funny. Good one, Martin. Hello.

Hallie:Oh, Mildred, darling. Hi. How are you?
