Louise:
Weren't you watching?
Janet:
Of course, I was watching upstairs on the television until the damn picture went out.
Louise:
Janet, when are you going to join the rest of us in the 20th century and get cable? The picture is so much better. Plus, you get HBO and everything. It would really improve the quality of your life.
