1:17:00
Veda.
1:17:02
You see, $ 1 0,000
is not entirely unreasonable.

1:17:06
-This is moral blackmail, sir.
-That's no way to talk about a baby.

1:17:10
-l won't pay it.
-Yes, you will. Ask your lawyer.

1:17:13
Yes?
1:17:16
Yes.
1:17:17
l guess that's about all. You can make
out the check to Mrs. Forr-- To....

1:17:22
Miss Veda Pierce.
1:17:25
Well, that's that.
1:17:30
l'm sorry this had to happen.
Sorry for the boy. He seemed very nice.

1:17:34
Ted's all right, really.
1:17:37
Did you see the look on his face when
we told him he was going to be a father?

1:17:42
-l wish you wouldn't joke about it.
-You're a scream.

1:17:45
-Next you'll be knitting little garments.
-l don't see anything ridiculous about that.

1:17:50
lf l were you, l'd save
myself the trouble.

1:17:59
-You're not going to have a baby?
-At this stage, it's a matter of opinion.

1:18:03
ln my opinion, l'm going to have
a baby. l can always be mistaken.

1:18:08
-How could you do such a thing?
-l got the money, didn't l?

1:18:12
l see.
1:18:13
l'll have to give Wally part of it
to keep him quiet, but there's enough.

1:18:17
Money. That's what
you live for, isn't it?

1:18:19
You'd do anything for money.
Even blackmail.

1:18:22
-Grow up.
-l've never denied you anything.

1:18:25
Anything money could buy, l've given you.
But that wasn't enough, was it?

1:18:29
Things are going to be different.
1:18:31
l'll say they are.
Why do you think l went to all this trouble?

1:18:34
-Why do you think l want money so badly?
-All right, why?

1:18:38
-Are you sure you want to know?
-Yes.

1:18:41
Then l'll tell you. With this money,
l can get away from you.

1:18:45
Veda.
1:18:46
From you and your chickens, pies and
kitchens. Everything that smells of grease.

1:18:51
l can get away from this shack
and its cheap furniture. And this town....

1:18:55
lts women that wear uniforms.
lts men that wear overalls.

1:18:58
l'm seeing you for the first time
in my life. You're cheap and horrible.
