      Spike Thomson: [about Mary] I'd never actually spoken to her at school. I'd seen her, I knew who she was, but I never actually spoke to her. It's strange, I'm talking about a girl I've never even really met,

      [holding back tears]

      Spike Thomson: , but I feel like I've known her...

      Lynda Day: For years, right?

      [Spike is silent]

      Lynda Day: Forever?

      Spike Thomson: [breathing heavily] For the rest of my life.
