Brian: Boopsie: Brian Mix. I'm your director on "Poppy: The War Years." Boopsie: It's nice to meet you, Mr. Mix. I'm very excited about playing Mrs. Bush! It's a wonderful part! Brian: Great. We'll be having a read-through after lunch. You have any problems with the script so far? Boopsie: Well, actually just one. I'm having a little trouble believing the shore leave scene I'm in. Brian: It's just comic relief, honey. With all the grim combat stuff, we need it! Boopsie: I know, but would I really be mistaken for Mr. Bush's mother? Brian: Sure! Remember, at the time, he was the youngest pilot in the U.S. Navy!
