How It All Goes Down
- Dad tells how he met Mom.
- Dad was in the Air Force, and Mom was in the USO.
- Both were on leave and visiting some cliffs.
- Mom was cliff diving, and Dad dove in after her. He said he's going to marry her.
- Mom: "What makes you think I'd accept your proposal?" (2.5.8).
- Dad: "I didn't propose. […] I told you I was going to marry you." (2.5.9)
- We're not sure if that's romantic or creepy.
- The lovebirds got married and had Lori, then Jeannette, then Brian.
- There was also a baby who died of crib death very young, Mary Charlene.
- Mom shrugged it off, but she says Dad was never the same.
