Family Theater presents Morino Sullivan and Raymond Burr. From Hollywood, the mutual network in cooperation with Family Theater presents Sylvia starring Morino Sullivan. And now to our transcribed drama, Sylvia starring Morino Sullivan as Mary.
Before I tell you who Sylvia is and how we miss, and the way she affected my life in a way I'll never forget, Let me tell you how it all began.
I was working in the garden in the back of our house, looking out towards the elms and the oaks that filled a good portion of our 20 acres. The summer grass was so thick and luxuriant underfoot, that I didn't hear Greg until he was practically beside me.
What's the big dream, Mary? Oh, Greg! Aren't you of home early, dear? I didn't plan supper until soon. Oh, I took off early because there's a new project breaking at the office. Oh, again? Oh, Greg.
Here means I'll be working all kinds of strange hours and probably have to fly out to Hollywood. To Hollywood? Whatever, fall. Some film commercials for our very important client. The one who makes it possible for us to live in a style we couldn't afford otherwise.
And do they have to be made in Hollywood? Well, let's not put the kite before the horse, honey. The commercials and storyboards have to be made up first, and that's going to take at least a month.
Are you going to have to write them too? Uh-uh. Not this time. I'm tired a new copywriter today. Well, at least that'll be that off your shoulders. I'll have to work pretty closely with her, but she's awfully good, Mary. Almost too good to be true.
