Mary's horrendous and shameful fate without George Bailey.

George:Clarence, where's Mary?

Clarence:"She's just about to close up the library!!!"

Watching this scene as an adult and laughing my ass off every time has become one of my favorite holiday traditions.

Honestly imagine being Mary and just trying to leave work after a long day, when this weird shit happens.

Mary it's George! Don't you know me?!

My biggest issue with that movie is that George’s problem isn’t that he thinks everybody else would be better off without him alive. It’s that he doesn’t want to be alive cause his life is too stressful. Clarence doesn’t really get that.

That, and, Mary was happy as an old maid.
