"Yeah, I'm sure she probably saw your photographs and copied them." "No, she didn't." "Kim, please, Jacoby's here." " Alex, this is your daughter!" " I know." "This is serious!" "Just because you keep denying it does not mean ...it's not happening." " Kim, I can't do..." "Excuse me, Mr. Hurst." "When should we serve dinner?" "Ten minutes, please." "Kim, everybody is waiting." "Will you come downstairs?" " We can talk about this later." " No." " I have proof, Dad." "Look!" " Not now, honey." " Please!" " Not now." "Come on!" "Welcome, everybody." "Please, have a seat." "Uh, If I could just say a few words to all of you friends of Fallen Mill, both big and small." "Thank you for joining us this evening." "It means a great deal to us." "Every aspect of this restoration has followed the exact specifications and materials used in the original construction of the house, including the wood assembling techniques, the layout in the kitchen, even the lacquering process for all the timber." "It's something Kim and I are very proud of, and I'm sure all of you, with your vast array of expertise, will appreciate the attention to detail." "The art you see on the walls, the friezes, even the furniture that you're sitting on, has all been meticulously chosen, reassembled or restored, depending on its condition, to, I think, truly represent the essence of the Blackwood collection." "So, thank you to the heritage board for their assistance, and to the historical society," "and, of course, to our guest of honor, Charles Jacoby." "Your interest in our projects is nothing short of inspirationa!" "So, thank you." "And finally, to the house itself." "May its newly restored life be long and happy."
