Transcript with Punctuation Added:

Now, the first couple of weeks, I wasn’t so sure about her because she was a little bit standoffish—but that’s just her personality.

She’s become softer—she won’t agree to that, she won’t admit it, but she has become softer.

And I know that when Mrs. Smith—we all know Mrs. Smith, we talk about her every day—when she opens the door, she’s not going to be scared. She’s going to feel comfortable and confident.

So, Stephanie, come on up here, please!

(Yes, really—back!)
