A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in their bed. 
"What's the matter, dear?" she whispers as she steps into the room. "Why are you down here at this time of night?"
The husband looks up, "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and
you were only 17?" he asks solemnly.
The wife is touched  thinking her husband is so caring and sensitive. "Yes, I do," she  replies.
The husband pauses. The words are not coming easily. "Do you  remember when
you father caught us in the back seat of my car?" 
"Yes,  I remember," says the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.
The  husband continues..."Do you remember when he shoved a shotgun in my face and  said, "Either you marry my daughter, or I will send you to jail for 20  years".
"I remember that too", she replies softly.
He wipes another tear from his cheek and says... "I would have gotten out today!"
