They can search for and find part of the PT 109, but they just can’t seem to find that 69 Olds.

No? If it disappeared, I presume it went to that great Car Press in the Sky.

That was an amazing time. After the Rocket 88 plunged into Poucha Pond, Teddy showed up in Edgartown later that evening (or morning). He then apparently tried to establish an alibi by impressing the time on someone at his hotel.

A week or so after Mary Jo drowned, he emerged from the family compound and delivered one of the most limp excuse speeches any politician has ever delivered. It was written by some of the best political writers of the time, but their talent didn't show up.

Teddy was not marvelously flawed. Just badly flawed.

I’D RATHER BE HUNTING WITH DICK THAN DRIVING WITH TED!

The only thing special about Ted is that his three brothers died. We wouldn’t even know his name if any of them had survived.
