You're going to get the belt for that."
Yeah, mine was a bastard, too.
Or I guess so.
I don't know.
You going to be going to school
in Tucson?
No. My mom says
we're going to Monterey.
Monterey? You know,
you're lucky to get out of Tucson.
The school here is weird, let me tell you.
Mr. Emmet, the science teacher,
wears a hairnet.
Scary. Really scary.
Can I have some more wine?
Tommy, are you in there?
What did I do?
Come on, honey, let's do something.
I don't feel so wonderful.
Put another quarter in and try again.
Hello? Yes?
Is he okay?
Thank God.
Sure.
Thank you.
The market's not going to
press any charges, Mrs. Hyatt.
- Thank God.
- They had a nice long talk with Tommy.
He's right over there.
- What's he wearing?
- He's got a sweatshirt on.
He got a little sick. Here are his things.
- He was sick?
- Too much wine.
I see.
You're the singing waitress?
- I'm Tommy's mother.
- I'm Audrey. It's nice to meet you.
It's nice to meet you, Audrey.
Tell me, how did all this happen?
It was just a big mistake.
- Big mistake.
- Whose?
The store's.
Doris, come on, let's go.
I got to go.
Ramada Rose is upset,
so you tell Tommy I said goodbye.
Yes, I will.
Would you come on?
So long, suckers!
He's all yours.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
You look like you've been embalmed.
- What happened?
- It's all right. Go back to sleep.
What?
- Yeah?
- You're late for work.
I know. I'm sorry, I overslept.
I'll be right there.
You okay?
Isn't David coming in today?
You want to talk about it?
Alice, come here, honey.
Come on. Come here.
Come on, sugar, right now.
Come on, honey.
- Flo, the combinations are ready.
- Mel!
We're going right here
and have us a little talk. Come on.
Come on in here, Alice.
Shut that door.
Everything gets so screwed up.
I know.
I don't know. I just... I tried and...
I don't know. I met David, and then...
I spent all the money
I had saved to get to Monterey...
for Tommy's birthday present.
You know, his cowboy outfit.
I don't know. I got sidetracked, and then...
Gosh, I was so...
I was so scared of Donald, you know?
I was always trying to please him.
I was so afraid not to please him.
- You were scared of him?
- God, yes.
And now I'm without him.
I mean, it's like I always felt
that he was taking care of me...
and now I just don't know what to do.
Honey, it's nice
to have somebody take care of you.
But he didn't.
I just felt like he did
just because he was there.
I don't know how to live without a man,
that's what it is.
I want to tell you something.
My life ain't exactly a bed of petunias.
I got me a daughter,
cutest little thing you ever saw.
She needs about $4,000 worth
of dental work...
else she's going to have buck teeth.
What am I going to do?
I ain't got any money.
My old man...
Honey, he ain't talked to me
since the day Kennedy got shot.
What, did he think you had
something to do with it?
Look at that face. Look at that body.
Honey, the Lord blessed you with talent.
You can sing.
I don't know about that.
You never heard me sing.
You got to be good at it. You had a job.
I used to be good when I was a kid.
But I'm not good anymore.
- My voice has a wiggle in it.
- I won't bullshit you.
You better get that wiggle out of
your voice or take up something else.
I'm so mad at David, I could just kill him.
I really could.
I could just kill him.
- Sounds to me like you love him.
- No.
I do.
Flo, what the hell is going on in there?
- Mel, beat it. We'll be back in a minute.
- Vera's going crazy in there!
- Give us a minute.
- I won't give you a minute...
Open that door again, you'll run
a 3-legged race to the undertaker.
You don't know what's going on.
You want to get through the day
with just Vera?
Don't do this to me.
Will you please tell him...
Yeah, I know, but it's my life.
It's not some man's life
that I'll help him out with.
No, ma'am.
I can't help it. That's the way I feel.
