I'm Marybeth.

I'm an alcoholic.

And thank you, James.

We sat up here every week for all these weeks, and I'm grateful for that.

And I also want to thank all the women that have come for me because I remember when I sat,

if you know me, I don't like to schedule things.

Like I'm not good with scheduling.

And so for me to get on the phone and call, like a million women to see if they can come

on certain dates to do certain things, it's just not my gift.

And the women made it so easy for her because

every single woman said yes right away. It was amazing. And only one person had to back out.

and I get to watch it all unfold.

And tonight I was just kind of wondering, you know, how many people, isn't tonight the last night for friends on TV or something like that?

We'll probably have two people.
