SHARI: She's tryin' not to cry.
OPRAH: No. This is the best-- this is the
best invention of-- I think of the century,
personally. I-- I-- I compare it to the car.
OPRAH: Harriet works for us behind the scenes
fearlessly for 18 years now? And she was workin' this thing.
I don't know what they were doing.
I don't even know how they did it because first
I was told it is not going to happen.
You must give up the iPad dream. It's not gonna happen.

of all time. Oh my gosh.
Here, I gotta give you a hug for that.
GROUP: Aw.

(LAUGHTER)
OPRAH: Harriet is one of the people who I trust to
represent me in a way that-- is integrity filled and--
she really gets what this show is all about and what
it stands for and what we're trying to do.
OPRAH: I gotta sit with that for a minute. I just-
SHARI: I know.
OPRAH: --can't-- I really-
SHARI: It's unbelievable.
OPRAH: --I have to tell you-
SHARI: I know.

(OFF-MIC CONVERSATION)
FEMALE VOICE: You too.
(OFF-MIC CONVERSATION)
FEMALE VOICE: I know.

SHARI: I know.
(LAUGHTER)
OPRAH: I know how life changing this is gonna be for people.
SHARI: Yeah.
OPRAH: It's--
(LAUGHTER) no, really. I know.
(LAUGHTER)
OPRAH: It was a deep reaction. You know why?
It wasn't for me, 'cause I have one.
The reaction was for everyone else now
getting to have that experience.
In case you don't know by now, I mean my greatest
joy is having other people have joy.
So I get more joy the more people have joy,
so then I'm just like Ah. Joy filled.
You know, my cup runneth over.
SHARI: I mean you're about to do the most
spectacular show in history and you're gonna be like,
Should we show it (UNINTEL PHRASE).
OPRAH: I can't be-- oh my god. I wish I had that iPad.
OPRAH: I was really like,
'Well, how am I gonna do a Favorite Things show without
my favorite, favorite, favorite, number one,
all time favorite thing? Now I don't mess
with God for things like iPads.
I use God for major issues like health
concerns or danger, safety, prayers for that.
I don't go around prayin' for iPads.
But I think God must have known.
OPRAH: It's too much.
(LAUGHTER)
SHARI: Do you need to take to your sofa?
(LAUGHTER)
OPRAH: I can't take it.
