00:00I have realized I do not know my granddaughter's name.
00:04Oh, we're going to name her Fern.
00:07Fern? Another plant you got growing in there?
00:11No. Used to be parents understood names gotta have power.
00:18How about a family name?
00:20Well, my mother's name was Gertrude.
00:22Gertrude? I thought you all were supposed to have more interesting names.
00:27What is that supposed to mean?
00:28I'm not trying to be insulting.
00:30No, I want to know what is a more interesting name.
00:34Your father, what was his name?
00:36Walter. But I didn't know him really well.
00:40Call that a broken family.
00:42Solange, would you please stop?
00:44They were academics. My dad did not leave. He died after I was born.
