So, are you two serious?
[She realizes he's talking to her more than Johnnie.]
Oh, I'm Chrissy. Me and Johnnie have been together for...oh gosh, about four months now, I guess.
[Ed takes this in and slowly nods in response.]
So you're not married.
[That makes Chrissy laugh, and she gives Johnnie a small nudge beneath the table.]
No, not yet.
