:49:01
Give me my crutch.
:49:03
Why do you drink?
:49:04
I stepped on that foot and now I'm in pain.
:49:06
Good!
:49:14
At least you're not too numb...
:49:15
...with liquor to feel pain.
:49:20
-Why do you drink?
-Give me my crutch.

:49:22
-Tell me first.
-No, give me a drink first.

:49:28
-First you've got to tell me!
-All right! Disgust!

:49:31
-Disgust with what?
-You strike a hard bargain.

:49:34
-Boy, do you want liquor that bad?
-Yes, sir, I want liquor that bad.

:49:43
What are you disgusted with?
:49:45
Mendacity! Do you know what that is?
It's lies and liars!

:49:49
Who's been lying to you? Maggie?
:49:51
No, not one lie or one person.
The whole thing.

:49:54
-You got a headache?
-No, I'm trying--

:49:56
Trying to concentrate, but you can't
because your brain is soaked with liquor.

:50:00
Wet brain!
:50:02
Mendacity!
:50:03
What do you know about mendacity?
I could write a book on it.

:50:07
-It's your sister calling from Memphis.
-To hell with her!

:50:11
Get out of there!
:50:12
Go on. Close the door after you.
:50:15
Mendacity!
:50:16
Look at the lies I've got to put up with.
Pretenses, hypocrisy!

:50:21
Pretending like I care for Big Mama.
I haven't tolerated her in 40 years.

:50:26
Church! It bores me, but I go.
:50:30
All those swindling lodges, social clubs,
and money-grabbing auxiliaries...

:50:35
...that's got me on their number one
sucker list.

:50:37
Boy, I've lived with mendacity.
Why can't you live with it?

:50:41
You've got to. There's nothing to live with
but mendacity. Is there?

:50:47
Yes, sir, you can live with this.
:50:52
That's not living.
:50:54
-That's dodging away from life.
-I want to dodge away from it.

:50:58
Then why not kill yourself?
:50:59
Because I like to drink.
