๐คซ "You swear not to tell anyone?" โ the secret that changes everythingAdded:
I've got a secret to tell you. You swear you won't give up to anyone. I got accepted early to Yale Law School. To what?
Why? You don't want to be a lawyer.
Maybe I do. You want to switch from talking without asking me, but you applied to law school? On a lark. I never thought I'd get in. Who's we? Ms. Watson. She practically filled out my application for me.
You've got to be kidding me.
What did she You're getting married.
First of all, there's no ring on this finger. Second, I can do both. I can.
How does Tommy feel about this? He doesn't know. No one does. You are this close to getting everything you ever wanted, and this close to losing it.
