Pig

22 mins

In the restaurant's ladies' room, Mitzi proceeds to tell Jamie the story of the death of her longtime "best friend", her pig, the story which includes the new wrinkle that the pig spoke to her before he died. Meanwhile out in the dining booth, Bondurant tells William that he is in love... not with Mitzi, but with Jamie, this news which is passed along to both Mitzi and Jamie when they emerge from the ladies' room. The one person seemingly nonplussed by the news is Mitzi. In private, she later divulges to Jamie the reason partly for her reaction is a secret that she has been keeping, that secret which she has not yet told Bondurant and which she probably will not tell him based on her belief that he has been accepted into Julliard. Bondurant has told another story to William about Julliard, which leads to them breaking into Massey Hall for some emotional comfort. With Mitzi and Jamie alone at the apartment while the boys are off at the theater, Mitzi concludes the story of her pig, the punchline which has more of an emotional resonance based on the events of the evening.
