　　WILL
　　Do you ever wonder what your life would
　　be like if you never met your wife？
　　
　　SEAN
　　What？ Do I wonder if I’’d be better
　　off if I never met my wife？
　　
　　Will starts to clarify his question.
　　
　　SEAN （cont’’d）
　　No， that’’s okay. It’’s an important
　　question. ’’Cause you’’ll have your bad
　　times， which wake you up to the good
　　stuff you weren’’t paying attention to.
　　And you can fail， as long as you’’re
　　trying hard. But there’’s nothing worse
　　than regret.
　　
　　WILL
　　You don’’t regret meetin’’ your wife？
　　
　　SEAN
　　Why？ Because of the pain I feel now？
　　I have regrets Will， but I don’’t regret
　　a singel day I spent with her.
　　
　　WILL
　　When did you know she was the one？
　　
　　SEAN
　　October 21， 1975. Game six of the
　　World Series. Biggest game in Red Sox
　　history， Me and my friends slept out
　　on the sidewalk all night to get
　　tickets. We were sitting in a bar
　　waiting for the game to start and in
　　walks this girl. What a game that
　　was. Tie game in the bottom of the
　　tenth inning， in steps Carlton Fisk，
　　hit a long fly ball down the left
　　field line. Thirty-five thousand fans
　　on their feet， screamin’’ at the ball
　　to stay fair. Fisk is runnin’’ up the
　　baseline， wavin’’ at the ball like a
　　madman. It hits the foul pole， home
　　run. Thirty-five thousand people
　　went crazy. And I wasn’’t one of them.
　　
　　WILL
　　Where were you？
　　
　　SEAN
　　I was havin’’ a drink with my future
　　wife.
　　
　　WILL
　　You missed Pudge Fisk’’s homerun to
　　have a drink with a woman you had never
　　met？
　　
　　SEAN
　　That’’s right.
　　
　　WILL
　　So wait a minute. The Red Sox haven’’t
　　won a World Series since nineteen
　　eighteen， you slept out for tickets，
　　games gonna start in twenty minutes，
　　in walks a girl you never seen before，
　　and you give your ticket away？
　　
　　SEAN
　　You should have seen this girl. She
　　lit up the room.
　　
　　WILL
　　I don’’t care if Helen of Troy walked
　　into that bar! That’’s game six of the
　　World Series!
　　
　　Sean smiles.
　　
　　WILL （cont’’d）
　　And what kind of friends are these？
　　They let you get away with that？
　　
　　SEAN
　　I just slid my ticket across the table
　　and said "sorry fellas， I gotta go see
　　about a girl."
　　
　　WILL
　　"I gotta go see about a girl"？ What
　　did they say？
　　
　　SEAN
　　They could see that I meant it.
　　
　　WILL
　　You’’re kiddin’’ me.
　　
　　SEAN
　　No Will， I’’m not kiddin’’ you. If I
　　had gone to see that game I’’d be in
　　here talkin’’ abouta girl I saw at a
　　bar twenty years ago. And how I always
　　regretted not goin’’ over there and
　　talkin’’ to her. I don’’t regret the
　　eighteen years we were married. I
　　don’’t regret givin’’ up couseling for
　　six years when she got sick. I don’’t
　　regret being by her side for the last
　　two years when things got real bad.
　　And I sure as Hell don’’t regret missing
　　that damn game.
　　
　　A beat. Will is impressed.
