Woman: I lost my boyfriend tragically, um… a few years ago. (choking back tears) They never found him, and I've had such a hard time since. Every day.
Browne: The reason why you didn't find him is 'cause he's in water. And, find him in water…
The woman looks confused.
Browne: (to Montel) it's like the girl that's missing in Aruba. [to woman] You can't find somebody…
Woman: (interrupting) Well, it was…September eleventh. There was no… He was a fireman, but…there was no…
Browne: Well no, you see, I keep seeing him in water. The woman shakes her head angrily. There is a pause.
Browne: Is there any way he could have drowned in water, someway?
Woman: [shakes her head] They never found a piece of him. Nothing.
Montel: (to Sylvia) From 9/11.
Another pause.
Browne: 'Cause he's… he says he couldn't breathe and he was filled with water.
Another pause.
Montel: Hmm.
Browne: Well, if they were trying to put the fire out, Montel…
Montel points to another person in the audience, trying to move on.
Montel: They couldn't, you know, uh, yeah.
Another pause.
Browne: No, they won't find him, but honey that's okay, because it doesn't matter if they find him or not, he's still over there.
