Résumé

TLDRIn this dialogue, parents are grappling with their daughter Sondra's and her husband Elvin's life decisions. The father expresses his disappointment over Elvin's choice not to pursue a career in medicine but instead take a job ensuring safety seals on pill bottles. He also faces the shocking news that Sondra, who was expected to go to law school, has decided to work alongside Elvin in a wilderness store. The father is particularly upset, feeling it's a waste of the money spent on her Princeton education and fears for her potential as a great lawyer. The concerned mother suggests giving the young couple a year to try out their plans before making further judgments, though she is also significantly worried as she emotionally insists on how they are their children and her maternal instincts in the matter.
