[Voiced – Evelyn, Evelyn, both]
Are you there, Evelyn?
Yes, of course I am, I'm always here. What's the matter, Evelyn?
I'm frightened. It's that time of year again, isn't it, Evelyn?
Yes, it is that time of year again, Evelyn
Tell me once more how it all happened, Evelyn
Hush now. We don't talk about that because it makes us sad, Evelyn
I won't be sad this time. I promise. Please?
Tell me again about the tragic events of September, Evelyn
The year is 1985. ”St. Elmo's Fire” is at the top of the charts
The wreckage of the Titanic has just been discovered at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean
And on a small farm on the Kansas-Colorado border
A young mother is about to give birth
The local doctor has predicted twins
Which gladdens the hearts of the woman and her husband
Who could certainly use the extra help around the farm
But the birth does not go well
The terrified father drives his screaming, hemorrhaging wife to the local clinic
A poorly funded facility housed in a converted Airstream trailer
The presiding physician is Dr. Charlie Von Kook
A local denture maker of dubious training with eccentric religious beliefs
The labor is long and painful, and Louisa Neville, a Mennonite girl
Who had given up a promising career as a legal assistant
To join her first and only love on the rundown farm that was his only inheritance
May her soul rest forever in peace
Is pronounced dead by the doctor
“She has died”
At 11:23 AM, on the 11th day of September, precisely 12 minutes after the birth of her twin daughters
