Well, what should I say, I'm an ignorant opinionated girl, and everything I am I owe to you? ANAGNOS [SMILES]: That is only half true, Annie. ANNIE: Which half? . . . This place gave me more than my eyes back. Or taught me how to spell, which I'll never learn anyway, but with all the fights and the trouble I've been here it taught me what help is, and how to live again, and I don't want to say goodbye. Don't open the door, I'm crying. ANAGNOS [GENTLY]: They will not see. Which tone would be most appropriate for a text trailer that includes this scene? playful formal sorrowful mysterious
