Jesse: There it is.
[Pointing to a mountain]
Winnie: This is the Eiffel Tower?
Jesse: The one in Paris - it's pretty tall. Mine is two feet higher.
Winnie: [They start to climb the mountain] Have you really seen the real one in Paris?
Jesse: Yes I have. And climbed 1.652 stairs to the top. Much easier than this. You doin' all right?
Winnie: I think so
Jesse: You're doin' great. Here
[Gives her a helping hand]
Winnie: If I went to the Eiffel Tower I would take one of those elevators.
Jesse: Not with me! You'd take of your shoes and walk up every single, solitary step.
Winnie: How old are you?
Jesse: You really wanna know?
Winnie: Yes.
Jesse: 104
Winnie: I'm serious.
Jesse: So am I!
[Thinks about it]
Jesse: Let's just call it 17.

Narrator: Winnie Foster was beginning to lose track of time. Had she been there a day? A week? A month? It seemed to Winnie that the Tucks lived in a way the rest of the world had forgotten. They where never in a hurry and did things the slow way. For the first time Winnie felt free to explore, to ask questions, to play.
