β€œWell, here we are, Chip. Back in Beech Grove, Indiana!”

β€œYou know, Babs. The old homestead really hasn’t changed much.”

β€œThe Colonial Movie House is still open! Man, I’m so happy they didn’t get rid of that beautiful faΓ§ade. Mom hated it, always saying it looked like a widow’s walk.”

β€œI bet you can’t remember the first movie we saw there, sis. Loser buys lunch.”

β€œAre you kidding me? It was β€œThe Blob” with Steve McQueen. God, I loved that man!”

β€œThat’s right! I forgot about your crush!”

β€œLook! Fire Station #1910 is now a burger joint. You’re buying, bro!”
