What do you want me to do?

You gonna shack up here?

Well, thanks. Now the button.

We got here in the state of Louisiana what's known as the Napoleonic Code.

Mitch is a buddy of mine. We was together in the 241 st Engineers.

My youth was gone up the waterspout.

I was joking. Feebly.

You mustn't wait on me.

- Did Eunice get the police? - No, she's getting a drink...

- Is your mother well? - Why?

Now, since when are you giving me orders?

- Ha, ha, ha. - Well, of course, I could be wrong.

- But the burden fell on my shoulders. - Best I could do was make my own living.

- I'm not sure I did. - Well, that's where she's at, honey.

Look at these fine feathers and furs that she comes to preen herself in here?

because this other party is somebody...

This one here with this paper thing on it.

- Heh. As a matter of fact, my wire... - As a matter of fact...

How could you possibly wonder?

and then transfer to one called Cemeteries...

Well, what do you know?

Please... It won't be necessary.

How long's this game going to continue?

until I get in. What do you say?

She won't live long...

I put him in his place. Now he makes up stories about me.

Blanche, honey, this is Mr. Gonzalez and Mr. Hubbell.

He's not gonna marry her now.

How do you think all that sickness and dying was paid for?

Don't you get along with him?

You saw him first in uniform, an officer, not here.

I haven't put on one ounce in 10 years, Stella.

HEY MADIEEEEEEE

Does that mean...

He smashed all the light bulbs with the heel of my slipper.

You talk so seldom, when you do say anything...

but all the rest of it.

do you want him?

How's your mother?

Look, she ain't coming down and she ain't gonna talk to you neither...

You know why Mitch didn't come, but you won't tell.

On Saturday nights, they would go in town to get drunk.

I hope they haul you in, turn a fire hose on you like the last time!

- No, I better leave it on. - No. I want you to be comfortable.

You can remember it by that...

Just as phony as it... Oh, hello, Stanley.

A little bit on the primitive side, I should think.

I wish you'd stop taking it for granted I'm in something I wanna get out of.

Never arithmetic, sir. Never arithmetic.

- Oh, Blanche. - Yes, it is. Or I wouldn't say it. You...

Close the curtains before I come out.

Yeah? What happened?

I guess that's what's meant by being in love.

He came to me for help.

Blanche. You know, it's hot in there with the steam from that bathroom!

Capricorn, the goat!

Who'd you say it was from?

Is it because I've been stood up by my beau?

I tore into my trunk to see what I had that was suitable for the tropics.

And on the way back, they would stagger onto my lawn and call:

You seemed gentle.

but a little piece of eternity dropped in our hands...

- Oh, he's on the road a good deal. - Oh, he travels?

I bought some nice clothes to meet all your lovely friends in.

I didn't know that stars took up collections.

Oh, that's good.

Yes, a big spider. That's where I brought my victims.

- He's coming to make an appraisal. - Don't be such an idiot, Stanley.

On the other hand, men lose interest quickly, especially when a girl is over...

I thanked God for you.

I guess I... Young man.

- My mother is sick, and... - Oh, I'm sorry to hear it. Badly?

- Stella? - Yes, Eunice?

Oh, she's about the same, thanks.

Some of your sister's friends have stayed in the city.

But people like you abused her and forced her to change.

- Three bullets, mustache. - Straight! I gotcha!

You showed me a snapshot of a place with columns...

that he met at a hotel called the Flamingo.

I have the misfortune of being an English instructor.

Your sister hasn't turned into a drunkard. She's just all shaken up...

Not with my nerves tonight. Scotch for me, please.

Is it the gentleman I was expecting from Dallas?

Rain from heaven.

I won't stay long, I won't. I promise.

Telegram? What telegram?

- Chocolate? - No, ma'am. Cherry.

It's a French name.

Put it over the light bulb. Will you, please?

Well, I can't do no more with them.

But you were the one that abandoned Tunnel B, not I.

I was played out. You know what played out is?

And after two, three days they quit, then she goes on to another one.

I want to rest.

Yes, tell one, Blanche. You used to know a lot of good stories.

- Looks like she's staying a while. - Yeah.

Deliberate cruelty is not forgivable!

There you are. I didn't hear you name it!

Oh, no, my gracious. What a thing.

Bearing the raw meat home from the kill in the jungle. And you...

I told you at breakfast. I phoned you at lunch.

A 17-year-old kid she got mixed up with.

I got a sick mother and she don't go to sleep...

I want you to look at my figure, you know?

at the Four Deuces. That's much more practical.

It was because... on the dance floor...

These fingernails have to be trimmed. Jacket, doctor?

When I thought my luck was beginning to fail me.

Their literary heritage is not what they treasure above all else.

- All right. - I tried to gloss things over a little...

The blind are leading the blind.

It was the other little familiarity that I felt obliged to discourage.

I have all those things... Aren't taken away, but grow, increase with the years.

The guests are gathering for the poker party.

What's the matter, honey? You lost?

She knew she was dying when she give me this. A very strange girl, very sweet.

You got plenty of room to get by me now.

I hadn't seen him for a while, then just now this wire...

- What, she got this out of teacher's pay? - Oh, hush.

He hates me, or why would he insult me?

Why don't someone go to the Chinaman's and bring back a load of chop suey?

Are you gonna stay here and insult her?

I'm not properly dressed.

Now, the Flamingo is used to all kinds of goings on.

Just a plain tailored outfit.

This is Western Union.

Screaming! Screaming!

I have an acquaintance who works in a jewelry store and he's coming...
