"Please see if her hair hangs long,
if it rolls and flows all down her breast,
Please, see for me if her hair is hanging long
for that's the way I remember her best"
                -       Bob Dylan, Girl From the North Country

----------------------------------------------------

"She's Victoria. And there is really no ther way I can describe her; she is everything that is beautiful and horrible in this world in an imperfect perfection of a person. Victoria. That's her."

-----------------------------------------------------

Oliver uncovers secret after secret from the girl that he falls head over heels in love with - but the more involved he gets, the more he starts to doubt if he really knows what he is doing.

Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home!
