Blanche: What is it?
David: Did my father ever go fishing?
Blanche: What?
David: When I was a kid, I always fantasized about the kinds of things my father and I would have done together. Going fishing was always my favorite. Did he?
Blanche: No.
David: Oh. Look, I know my coming here hurt you. But this wasn't any picnic for me, either. I'm angry too. I grew up not knowing anything about my father - who he was, what he was. I wish you could just tell me something about my father. Whether you like it or not, I am his son.
Blanche: He served in Korea.
David: Really?
Blanche: Army captain. Decorated for bravery. But not before he graduated top of his class at Vanderbilt.
David: Hey, that's pretty good.
Blanche: Well, let's see. There's so much to remember. Um... Well, he was charming, and quite an athlete. Intellectual. Oh, he could match wits with anybody in town. Very handsome. The ladies loved him. Apparently so.
