Adult Adam: [v.o.] Yeah, there was one more good thing about being a non-athlete.
Beverly: He's not here.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] I knew how to make a dramatic entrance. [cheers and applause]
Adam: Thank you. Thank you. But, most of all, Mom, would you please... [Beverly appears next to Adam] Whoa. I'd just like to thank the greatest, most supportive mom in the world. Mom...
Beverly: Yes. I've got a half-inch-deep thorn in my hand, and I don't even feel it.
Adam: Sorry, Mom. I realized I didn't get through high school all by myself.
Beverly: My baby cherishes me and puts me on a pedestal! [breathes sharply] [cheers and applause] Oh! [both laugh]
