There’s so many things I want to say to you.
No. I love your stories. Tell me a story, Idgie. Go on, you old bee charmer. Tell me a good tall tale. Tell me the one about the lake.
What lake?
The one that used to be here.Oh. Well, that was just a lie.
I know that, fool. Tell me anyway. Tell me the story.
Well … one time … there was this lake. And, uh, it was right outside of town. We used to go fishin’ and swimmin’ and canoein’ in it. And see … one November … this big flock of ducks … came in and landed on that lake and, uh … and then the temperature dropped so fast that the lake just froze right there. And the, uh … the ducks, they … flew off, you see, and took that lke with ‘em. And, uh … now they say that lake is somewhere over in Georgia. Can you imagine?
