00:00:47 It was him!
00:00:50 Then his hog got
00:00:54 He had no fence that would hold it,
00:00:58 I told him he could have his hog back
00:01:02 - What did he say to that?
00:01:05 But yesterday
00:01:08 My barn burned!
00:01:10 A barn burner is the meanest,
00:01:14 I can't find against you,
00:01:17 But I can give you
00:01:20 Leave this county

00:01:25 That'll do. Take your belongings
00:01:35 [Quiet Murmuring]
00:02:04 [Man]
00:02:07 Hot summer
00:02:11 Seems to know every time
00:02:14 You're near
00:02:17 And the touch of a breeze
00:02:20 Gently stirs all the trees
00:02:23 And a bird wants to please
00:02:26 My ear
00:02:29 The long

00:02:35 Seems to know what a flirt
00:02:38 You are
00:02:41 Seems to know your caress

00:02:48 How could someone possess

00:02:54 But you may long for me
00:03:00 Long before the fall
00:03:06 Long before
00:03:11 That winter's come to call
00:03:16 And meanwhile
00:03:19 I'll court you
00:03:22 And meanwhile
00:03:25 I'll kiss you
00:03:29 Meanwhile
00:03:33 Will hold you
00:03:36 Strong
00:03:41 And meanwhile
00:03:45 The long
00:03:49 Hot summer
00:03:52 Slowly moves along
00:03:58 Oh, so slowly
00:04:00 Moves along

00:04:28 [Horn Blows]
00:04:39 [Horn Blows]
00:04:57 - "[Vehicle Approaching]"
00:05:15 - "[Tires Screech]"
00:05:27 You like a lift
00:05:29 Never walk
00:05:33 - Just push 'em out of your way.
00:05:37 [Laughing]
00:05:42 I went shopping in those Memphis stores
00:05:46 Alligator bag, figured print,
00:05:49 Which is all a laugh considering
00:05:51 and nobody's gonna see 'em but
00:05:55 I don't care though.
00:05:58 - Are you two country girls?
00:05:59 - Are you two country girls?
00:06:01 Our little town's the most nowhere place
00:06:04 You can believe me when I tell you
00:06:07 And as far as social amusements
00:06:10 Well, that's all right.
00:06:13 I only know one reason
00:06:16 That's if you're too old
00:06:18 In other words, you two girls just
00:06:22 Don't jump to any conclusions,
00:06:25 - We're giving you a ride, that's all.
00:06:29 I go as far as you go,
00:06:31 You sound free as a bird.
00:06:35 Clara's wondering what kind of a bird,
00:06:37 If you aren't
00:06:40 Clara here's a schoolteacher
00:06:43 She didn't want
00:06:45 I said, "Why not?
00:06:48 She said, "'Cause he

00:07:54 You two girls
00:07:56 We two girls most particularly
00:07:59 [Tires Screeching]
00:08:33 How does a man make a living
00:08:36 - Honest or dishonest?
00:08:40 Now, a fella that's hardworkin'
00:08:43 can plant cotton
00:08:46 corn along the edge
00:08:48 If he ain't particular, he can
00:08:51 And what he don't drink,
00:08:55 Well, what happens
00:08:58 Ooh, they've been known
00:09:00 Also been known
00:09:03 Hey, um, not entirely.
00:09:05 No, not entirely.
00:09:08 Missing man's shoes might show up,
00:09:11 maybe even
00:09:13 'Course somebody else
00:09:19 You a federal man?
00:09:24 Well, let's say
00:09:26 Uh-huh.

00:09:40 What's your name, boy?
00:09:43 Quick. Ben Quick.
00:09:47 Quick?
00:09:49 Sure now.
00:10:07 Heavenly days!
00:10:10 She called up all nervous and fluttery
00:10:13 I forgot to tell you about it.

00:10:39 Whole bunch of new records
00:10:41 [Instrumental]
00:10:42 - All sorts of things!
00:10:45 I just wanted you to know you was
00:10:49 You just sit down and close your eyes.
00:10:52 You wanna know something,

00:11:02 Wait till you see
00:11:04 They show the same one
00:11:06 only without these
00:11:09 Salesgirl said to me,

00:11:19 and I was the only one
00:11:21 You like it?
00:11:24 What I like is you,
00:11:26 - "There's more."
00:11:29 And all of it
00:11:33 Ooh! Oh, now.
00:11:36 - You come to your daddy. Come on now.
00:11:39 - Come to your daddy! I got you!

00:11:49 [Woman] Where did you get
00:11:52 That party has been going on
00:11:55 I don't see how you can stand all that
00:11:59 - It would turn me into a nervous wreck.
00:12:03 "They're young."
00:12:05 For your information, we're still
00:12:09 for all the good
00:12:11 Oh, Clara, that baby brother of yours
00:12:15 You know what we were doing in there?
00:12:18 I hit him so hard, I knocked
00:12:22 - Hello, Agnes sweetie.
00:12:24 You sure do look calm and collected
00:12:27 Well, I'm not.
00:12:30 I know what you mean. I'm going

00:12:46 My phone rang
00:12:49 Just one time.
00:12:51 And this man with a deep,

00:13:16 and put kids in a bathtub
00:13:20 and... think about
00:13:24 Why aren't there enough men
00:13:28 There's no shortage.
00:13:31 - Ooh, I'm not fussy on that subject.
00:13:35 Tell me just one thing. Have you ever,
00:13:39 - "I have."
00:13:42 No, I didn't let him go.
00:13:45 Hmm, he came to call on me,
00:13:50 Then he didn't come calling
00:13:52 Speaking of your father, when's

00:14:09 He's sick in bed,
00:14:12 all dreamy with temperature.

00:14:17 I'd give something to know what goes on
00:14:23 I know what goes on
00:14:30 Uh, don't swivel around.
00:14:33 There's someone comin'.

00:15:30 Same amount of wind.
00:15:39 Where did you find him?
00:15:41 Out on the road.
00:15:44 Why did you have to go
00:15:47 Agnes, the last, desperate
00:15:49 - We haven't come to that yet.

00:27:08 Yeah, I already met
00:27:10 I'm the other.
00:27:12 Just driving by. Thought I'd stop

00:27:19 but I can get along with it.
00:27:22 Well, we can
00:27:25 Way I hear it, you're a boy that gets
00:27:29 The kind of trouble that might need
00:27:32 If you scared of me, mister, why don't
00:27:36 Huh!
00:27:38 Son, why should I
00:27:43 'Cause I got a reputation
00:27:48 Hmm.

00:27:55 I'm an old one.
00:27:58 You don't know who I am.

00:28:04 I'm commissioner of elections
00:28:08 I own the store
00:28:10 and the grist mill,
00:28:13 It's considered unlucky for a man
00:28:16 or grind his meal or shoe his stock...
00:28:20 Now, that's who I am.
00:28:22 You talk a lot.
00:28:24 Yes, I do, son.
00:28:27 But I'm done
00:28:29 except for passing you on
00:28:32 I built me a new jail
00:28:36 and if during the course of your stay
00:28:39 should happen to catch fire...
00:28:41 I think you oughta know
00:28:45 we never heard of the words
00:28:49 You'd rot.

00:29:04 and a black tie

00:29:11 You'd be writing yourself a fire
00:29:15 I'll give it some thought.
00:29:17 Yes or no, mister.
00:29:19 - You're mighty bushy-tailed
00:29:23 You're wasting your time.
00:29:27 - But like you said, you're an old man.
00:29:32 You bear that in mind.
00:29:34 Be respectful.
00:29:36 Yes, sir, Mr. Varner.

00:30:31 Well, it's unnatural to keep kids
00:30:34 In the winter they gotta
00:30:36 Somewhere along the line,
00:30:39 Besides, who knows?
00:30:41 I don't have much hope, but maybe I have
00:30:47 Oh, Alan,
00:30:52 Grace, dignity,
00:30:55 Just the way they were
00:30:58 Most people say
00:31:02 I suppose I oughta
00:31:04 put it to corn and cotton,
00:31:07 but I wouldn't be
00:31:09 - I'd hate it and make a mess of it.
00:31:12 There are enough hustlers around here
00:31:15 - You hold on to it.
00:31:20 [Chuckling] That's because
00:31:24 You listen here. He would
00:31:28 Wouldn't he just love to have
00:31:31 He can put up all those billboards
00:31:35 but quality is one thing
00:31:38 He has quality, Clara...
00:31:40 in you.
00:31:45 That's what I came through
00:31:49 I want you to be hale
00:31:51 I want you to be your courtly, gallant
00:31:55 - Very soon, ma'am.
00:31:58 Girls get all fidgety and looked at
00:32:01 - when they don't have
00:32:04 Besides, I've missed you.
00:32:09 That boy's temperature
00:32:11 between 100 and 100 and two-tenths
00:32:13 so none of that now.
00:32:16 - I just brought over
00:32:19 He won't eat a bite
00:32:22 I'm gonna hustle you right along,
00:32:28 All right, Miss Stewart.

00:32:45 [Horses Whinnying]
00:32:52 - Why, you old crook, you.
00:32:55 - Them's horses out of hell.
00:32:58 Them ponies never had a rope on 'em.
00:33:02 Well, you knowin' that,
00:33:04 kinda gives you the edge
00:33:08 [Whinnying Continues]
00:33:24 Minnie Littlejohn...
00:33:27 I'm gettin' thirsty
00:33:30 Since when you been
00:33:33 Ain't no kind of business.
00:33:38 So, of course,
00:33:41 - You hired that boy to fleece 'em?
00:33:44 Tell you the truth, I don't know why
00:33:48 Okay, come on now.
00:33:51 Come on. Let's move in here.
00:33:54 Bring your whole family down.
00:33:57 Let's go. We gonna get goin'.
00:33:59 Mr. Armistead, I heard what you
00:34:02 I wouldn't hesitate to put my own sister
00:34:05 You there.
00:34:07 How'd you like to be the proud owner
00:34:12 I can see you've got "no" written
00:34:15 You stop and think a minute.
00:34:17 You can pack yourself a picnic basket
00:34:22 You can ride off steam and bad temper
00:34:26 If you see a young fellow along the way
00:34:29 - you can put him behind you
00:34:33 Uh, what's your answer,
00:34:37 You were right the first time.
00:34:41 - [Laughing]
00:34:44 - A lot of women say "no"
00:34:48 I ain't foolin'
00:34:50 The man that buys one of these
00:34:54 Naturally they got spirit.
00:34:58 Tell you what I'll do. I'll give you
00:35:02 Ten dollars? You couldn't buy
00:35:06 There isn't a horse in there
00:35:09 You put 'em out to pasture,
00:35:12 Work 'em all day long,
00:35:14 Pretty soon every one of them
00:35:17 you'll have to put 'em out of the house
00:35:20 - Buzz!
00:35:27 - Minnie, what are you doin'?
00:35:29 I got a hum in my blood,
00:35:33 You swallowed five bottles of beer in
00:35:37 - Who's gonna give me $40 for that horse?
00:35:40 - Eleven.
00:35:42 - Shut up, son.
00:35:44 - Wait a minute. What are you doin'?
00:35:48 Fifteen dollars. I got fifteen dollars
00:35:51 Who's gonna make it 20?
00:35:53 Kiss me, Will.
00:35:57 I got a number
00:35:59 and, uh,
00:36:02 I'm your friend. I'm your associate.
00:36:05 Then what's the matter?
00:36:07 Will, all this time,
00:36:11 all I've done is put up
00:36:14 and I put down a corn beef
00:36:18 And I say to myself...
00:36:20 "Minnie, where is it all
00:36:23 It's gonna end with me eatin'
00:36:27 At midnight suppers after you've
00:36:31 I want to serve it to you
00:36:35 - Minnie.
00:36:37 What are you tryin'
00:36:40 I made plans, Will.
00:36:42 Matrimonial plans.
00:36:43 Matrimonial plans.
00:36:45 Now, you ain't ever heard me
00:36:50 Now, I'm willin'
00:36:53 - You know my married sister
00:36:56 Well, she's makin' me up
00:36:59 And I've sent away for some flatware
00:37:04 Minnie...
00:37:07 I'm 61 years old.
00:37:10 Look, honey, it's no good
00:37:15 I happen to be in a position
00:37:20 Hmm.
00:37:22 Just hand it over here. Thank you,
00:37:26 Twenty-five from you. Thirty-two
00:37:29 Thank you,
00:37:31 Don't forget 'bout bangin' them horses
00:37:35 - They won't give you any trouble.
00:37:38 - That's it.
00:37:40 Yeah. Get yourself a rope
00:37:44 All right, we'll need some rope.
00:37:52 You're not much of a prospect,
00:37:55 You don't need my money.
00:37:58 Yeah, but it's the holdout
00:38:00 I'll tell you, Mr. Quick.
00:38:02 The last time I parted with my money
00:38:06 - And nobody's ever taken you since.
00:38:09 Nobody ever will.
00:38:11 Well, life's very long
00:38:14 You might
00:38:24 Here they come!
00:38:27 - [Whinnying]
00:38:33 [All Shouting]
00:38:40 - Oh!
00:38:43 [Laughing]
00:38:45 That's a musical horse.
00:38:48 [Clattering]
00:38:50 Here, don't you bring
00:38:53 - [Laughing]
00:38:56 They'll go on all night
00:39:00 [Shouting Continues]
00:39:03 Boy, you got something
00:39:06 You ain't no better
00:39:08 Well, you ain't nothin' better
00:39:12 You sell
00:39:14 Never mind the name-calling.
00:39:17 I got somethin'
00:39:21 Come on.
00:39:26 - Whoa, you!
00:39:33 Whoa!
00:39:35 Ah, you wild-eyed
00:39:53 The man that built this place,
00:39:59 This was his dream
00:40:02 [Chuckles]
00:40:06 Must be a moral
00:40:08 - Looks like that's about all there is.
00:40:10 They got a legend
00:40:13 They do say there's money buried
00:40:15 at the time Grant overrun the country
00:40:19 - What's that got to do with me?
00:40:22 I like your push.
00:40:24 Yes, I like your style.
00:40:28 It ain't too dissimilar
00:40:31 You've been here a few days,
00:40:34 That's 'cause you
00:40:36 You go on listenin' to me, and someday,
00:40:40 I might just make you a present
00:40:43 Thank you for nothing.
00:40:45 You're a shrewd boy.
00:40:48 You'll find a way
00:40:51 Mister. You've been makin' me
00:40:55 - One of these days
00:40:58 I just ain't passin'
00:41:00 I'm aware of that.
00:41:03 [Chuckles]
00:41:06 Come to supper with me, boy,
00:41:11 You ornery critter!
00:41:14 [Horse Galloping]
00:41:16 There goes another one
00:41:19 Could be, you know,
00:41:22 could come out ahead
00:41:25 get their money's worth
00:41:28 A night like this is good for him.
00:41:32 [Alan] Oh, they'll catch
00:41:35 They'll catch them and make
00:41:38 You figure you know them redneck farmers
00:41:42 [Chuckles]
00:41:44 Suppose that's 'cause
00:41:48 been in these parts a little longer
00:41:50 About 200 years.
00:41:52 That's a long time
00:41:54 You don't believe
00:41:57 Well, my family moved.
00:42:00 They was encouraged
00:42:03 - You a hunted man or somethin'?
00:42:07 I'd like to hear
00:42:10 [Will]
00:42:13 he ain't caught.
00:42:15 Lucius, pass the drinks. Who's for
00:42:18 Alan, you're partial
00:42:21 Let's see. How many years
00:42:24 Five? Six?
00:42:26 - I've enjoyed your hospitality
00:42:29 I sometimes ask myself, do we get
00:42:33 or are you brightenin' up
00:42:36 That's Alan's
00:42:39 Don't get yourself fussed,
00:42:41 Alan knows a friendly inquiry
00:42:45 - When I hear one.
00:42:47 A friendly inquiry
00:42:50 As I understand it,
00:42:54 you keep pretty close to your house,
00:42:58 Papa, I can't stand this.
00:43:00 I think you've forgotten, Mr. Varner,
00:43:03 - She relies strongly on me.
00:43:06 Your old man ain't dead.
00:43:09 Just wandered off.
00:43:12 - The end result is the same.
00:43:15 She's got you.
00:43:17 She sure has you.
00:43:19 - I do my best.
00:43:22 [Jody Laughing]
00:43:24 Jody, you seem to enjoy
00:43:29 - Guess I'll direct a little bit at you.
00:43:32 You see Ben Quick here?
00:43:34 He's goin'to work tomorrow in the store
00:43:37 He's going to receive the same
00:43:43 That don't seem to strike you
00:43:48 It don't.
00:43:50 What I mean to say is, Jody,
00:43:53 you can sleep late mornings.
00:43:55 That is, as late as you figure
00:44:01 [Laughs]
00:44:03 Take the evenin' air.
00:44:22 Alan, I apologize
00:44:25 Don't, Clara.
00:44:27 I wouldn't blame you
00:44:30 Other young men have
00:44:32 My people have stood off Indians,
00:44:36 The least they could expect of me
00:44:40 All right then.
00:44:45 - "[Boy] Eula.! Eu-ooh-la.!"
00:44:49 Oh, listen to that.
00:44:51 If those boys don't sound like
00:44:55 [Boys Whistling]
00:44:58 Isn't it terrible the way they come
00:45:01 It's like that in town too.
00:45:04 - Don't go anywhere then. You stay put.
00:45:07 - You stay right close to home.
00:45:10 - They're only 16, 17 years old.
00:45:13 - "Eula.!"
00:45:17 You quit it out there,
00:45:20 - [Chuckling]
00:45:23 - "Eula.! Come on out.!"
00:45:26 - Come on, Eula. Get out of the light!
00:45:29 They don't have to see her.
00:45:32 - "Eula.!"
00:45:35 Tom Shortly, V.K. Bookwright,
00:45:38 Now, I know it's you out there!
00:45:40 - "[Boys] Eula.!"
00:45:43 - Just wait. I'll stop 'em.
00:45:47 It's a madhouse
00:45:49 They're just young boys.
00:45:54 How come they don't come
00:45:57 - It's just us that gets singled out.
00:46:01 It's not her fault.
00:46:04 They come here 'cause they know
00:46:07 no matter how crude
00:46:10 I was young myself once.
00:46:13 I used to hide in the greenery
00:46:17 I'll bet you did. I'll bet you
00:46:22 Your mama listened.
00:46:38 Blackjack!
00:46:40 [Chuckling]
00:46:43 All right.
00:46:46 Now let's deal 'em
00:46:49 Huh.
00:46:53 Is that the way
00:47:07 Those boys sure do make
00:47:11 Callin' and callin',
00:47:15 Wonder what would happen
00:47:18 I imagine there'd
00:47:20 Now, why did I make
00:47:24 Because
00:47:27 No, it didn't.
00:47:29 Now that's the plain,
00:47:32 No, Alan, there's no sense in pretendin'
00:47:37 They do.
00:47:39 You oughta hear some of the
00:47:42 Uh, I'd like to.
00:47:44 Well, there's nothing wrong
00:47:48 I am about mine.
00:47:53 [Chuckles]
00:47:56 This is certainly not the way I expected
00:48:01 I thought we were gonna sit here
00:48:04 and, just like those boys in the bushes,
00:48:08 Why, Clara, nature
00:48:11 You're not the kind of girl
00:48:16 You're a nice, quiet,
00:48:19 You'll see. Everything you want's
00:48:30 Oh, evening, Alice.
00:48:32 You want to see me?
00:48:34 Miss Minnie Littlejohn
00:48:37 Oh.
00:48:39 - Where I am, huh?
00:48:42 She say if you're not there
00:48:46 Triple locked, huh?
00:48:48 You tell Miss Minnie Littlejohn
00:48:52 when I'm there.
00:48:54 I'll tell her.
00:48:57 It appears
00:49:02 Are you married?
00:49:05 I live single.
00:49:07 Hmm.
00:49:10 You've known a few
00:49:13 Yeah. My fair share.
00:49:15 - [Chuckles]
00:49:59 Well, your friend left early,
00:50:03 I was kissed good night,
00:50:06 Kissed and left. That'd been me,
00:50:09 - Aren't you reckless.
00:50:11 No, I'm just skittish, Mr. Quick.
00:50:14 I have an answer for that.
00:50:16 Let's go get in that old Lincoln car
00:50:19 Let's go holler off a bridge
00:50:22 - There's been enough commotion tonight.
00:50:26 Let's go find us
00:50:28 Mr. Quick, those are all
00:50:31 but I'm afraid if I
00:50:33 I would hear the starch
00:50:36 and I'd know
00:50:38 Get out of character, lady.
00:50:41 Sudden changes
00:50:43 You'll never know
00:50:45 There's a volume ofJane Austen
00:50:48 and a glass of hot milk
00:50:51 You mean your friend would not like it
00:50:54 The idea of you and me
00:50:57 - I don't wish to discuss him with you.
00:51:00 I admire his manners
00:51:03 And I admire
00:51:06 But if you're savin' it
00:51:08 you've got your account
00:51:12 You can leave
00:51:15 Don't ask me twice.
00:51:27 Sister?
00:51:35 Oh, you are out here.
00:51:38 When did Alan leave?
00:51:41 - About 10:00.
00:51:44 Well, he's been ill.
00:51:46 Yeah? You look
00:51:49 Well, it's hot.
00:51:52 How old are you,
00:51:54 Don't you know?
00:51:56 I keep a lot of figures
00:51:58 Well, add these.
00:52:00 [Exhales]
00:52:03 Your mama was 18 when I married her.
00:52:07 - Papa, are we gonna talk
00:52:12 You know,
00:52:14 My life comes and goes,
00:52:18 Do you know I'm really quite a lively,
00:52:21 Sometimes I even
00:52:24 Yet you and I never seem to have
00:52:27 - You're unmarried.
00:52:30 What do you do out here,
00:52:35 - We talk.
00:52:39 He thinks I'm a nice, quiet,
00:52:43 Well, that ain't
00:52:48 Thousands of acres out there, millions
00:52:52 Every year
00:52:54 Life goes on.
00:52:57 Where's "my" crop, huh?
00:53:00 What follows me?
00:53:02 What happens
00:53:04 You'll probably have the biggest funeral
00:53:08 That don't scare me, so long as
00:53:11 Jody and I will be there.
00:53:13 You and Jody, and Jody's kids,
00:53:16 My descendants, sister.
00:53:18 A long line with my face stamped on 'em,
00:53:22 All of that
00:53:25 You think I'm joking.
00:53:29 You listen here to me,
00:53:32 If your blood is so frail
00:53:35 that it just calls out
00:53:38 amen, let it be him.
00:53:40 I'll give you a big weddin'.
00:53:44 I'll put money in Alan's account
00:53:47 But it's gonna be "now,"
00:53:50 No more pussyfootin',
00:53:52 and squeakin' that front porch swing
00:53:56 Six years that's all I've heard
00:53:58 Well, you can go and tell his mama...
00:54:02 You tell her you're taking over
00:54:06 If you should get "no" for an answer,
00:54:10 it's gonna be that other.
00:54:12 Which other?
00:54:14 That prize
00:54:17 that hand-grown, handpicked,
00:54:22 - You can't mean "him."
00:54:24 Listen, I'm gonna get me
00:54:27 Some good, strong,
00:54:29 Varners!
00:54:31 And more Varners.
00:54:33 Enough Varners
00:54:35 I'm gonna see that happen,
00:54:38 I'm gonna accomplish that.
00:54:40 By means of that Quick,
00:54:45 You mean you'd sell me away
00:54:48 - I'm not sellin' you.
00:54:50 Without caring what I feel
00:54:53 - I'm trying to save you.
00:54:57 Sister...
00:55:00 you're gonna
00:55:04 by way of Alan...
00:55:07 or Quick.
00:55:09 But you're gonna do it,
00:55:15 You'll get that ring
00:55:23 [Switch Clicks]
00:55:51 Here comes Jody.
00:55:54 [Chuckles]
00:55:59 What's goin' on?
00:56:01 They ain't come
00:56:03 Penny worth of candy,
00:56:06 Oh, they just come
00:56:09 What at?
00:56:11 We ain't runnin'
00:56:13 They come to look
00:56:15 Three days ago,
00:56:18 But from now on, they're gonna
00:56:21 for all the necessaries
00:56:23 Oh, no. They're gonna
00:56:27 like always.
00:56:35 Good morning, Jody.
00:56:41 Mr. Jody?
00:56:44 Mr. Jody.
00:56:46 My little chaps at home
00:56:51 We ain't got corn
00:56:54 Them $30 my husband paid
00:56:58 which he ain't even seen
00:57:01 I earned myself...
00:57:03 sewing at night
00:57:06 If that ain't the limit.
00:57:12 The trouble is
00:57:17 He don't know nothin', and he don't care
00:57:21 No, sir.
00:57:23 He don't care about anything
00:57:28 Lot of harsh things
00:57:31 And if I was to answer
00:57:34 why, that'd take up
00:57:37 All I can say, missus, is you took
00:57:40 Now, we're under new management.
00:57:44 [Bell Rings]
00:57:50 It's solved.

01:22:59 Well, now.
01:23:04 Uh, little
01:23:08 Little frosted cakes.
01:23:12 And little dainty sandwiches
01:23:15 You got a bigger appetite
01:23:18 - Hogwash.
01:23:21 You heard me.
01:23:23 That's strong language,
01:23:25 You got some foolish ideas
01:23:28 I am no tremblin' little rabbit full
01:23:31 - Is that so?
01:23:33 I'm a woman, full-grown,
01:23:35 - and not at all bad to look at.
01:23:37 I expect to live at the top of my bent
01:23:39 You're a real fire-eater,
01:23:41 You are barkin' up the wrong girl,
01:23:43 because it will
01:23:48 Never say never.
01:23:50 I don't know what arrangement
01:23:54 but you'll find you have
01:23:56 Now, we gonna be married,
01:23:59 You have been hoodwinked,
01:24:01 For once in your crafty life,
01:24:03 You mean you're turnin' me down,
01:24:07 You're too much like my father to
01:24:11 - He's a wonderful old man.
01:24:15 - Tame us.
01:24:17 I gave up on him
01:24:19 and I gave up on you the first time
01:24:24 - You got the color right.
01:24:27 Well, I can see you don't like me,
01:24:31 It's gonna be you and me.
01:24:33 - Not the longest day I live.
01:24:37 They're gonna say, "There goes
01:24:39 "whose father married her off
01:24:42 no-good farmer
01:24:44 Well, let 'em talk.
01:24:47 You gonna wake up
01:24:49 That's not enough.
01:24:52 That is not nearly enough.
01:24:55 Mr. Quick, I am a human being.
01:24:59 It means I set a price on myself,
01:25:04 You may be surprised
01:25:06 but I've got
01:25:08 I've got things I have been
01:25:11 things like love
01:25:14 and jokes and good times
01:25:18 I'm prepared to be the queen
01:25:21 or at the very least, the best wife
01:25:25 Now, that's my human history...
01:25:27 and it's not gonna be
01:25:29 and it's certainly not gonna be
01:25:33 All right. Then run, lady.
01:25:37 Buy yourself a bus ticket
01:25:39 Change your name,
01:25:41 And then maybe... just maybe...
01:25:45 Clara?
01:25:47 You, uh,
01:25:51 - Yes. Thank you, Alan.
01:25:55 With your permission,
01:26:13 - Do I look very flustered?
01:26:17 Well, I am.
01:26:23 Well, uh,

01:26:55 Well, I guess I'd better say it then,
01:26:59 But do you want me
01:27:03 What I want
01:27:06 But, Alan, that's such
01:27:12 That's such a good,

01:48:33 My old man used to
01:48:35 in case he had a grudge
01:48:38 My old man.

01:48:52 lyin' in a ditch,
01:48:56 just prayin' that God
01:49:01 That was the night that I run ahead

01:49:12 I remember...
01:49:15 just lyin' there...
01:49:18 chokin' on my own tears.
01:49:23 I remember that house burnin' and these
01:49:26 My old man was runnin'.
01:49:32 Maybe one of them shots
01:49:35 Or maybe he died
01:49:40 I don't know.
01:49:42 I never
01:49:45 How terrible
01:49:48 No, it wasn't.
