I was able to get a ticket and found my mom. She was talking with a young lady. I think we were all talking before I got the tickets. After getting a ticket for my mom and I the young lady, who was not with us, said, "What shall I do". Referring to getting a ticket. I was like I don't know. I wished at the time I had gotten a third ticket and told her to use it to gain admission to the theatre and go to the auditorium of your movie. I hope she is well some 11 years later.
