1:04:05
No, I ain't going.
1:04:09
I ain't going, Louis.
1:04:15
Billie, listen to me.
1:04:20
All right.
1:04:27
Billie, it...
1:04:29
Believe me when I tell you
that this is for your own good.

1:04:33
Don't preach to me, Louis.
1:04:35
All that I plan for you
is done with you in mind.

1:04:38
You affect my whole life, baby.
I love you.

1:04:41
- Lf you go down, baby. I go down, too.
- I'm not going down...

1:04:46
because there ain't no place down there
I wanna be.

1:04:51
Be going up, baby.
It'll just take a little time.

1:04:55
I love you, too. I love you.
1:04:59
Sure, I've taken a few shots,
but only when I needed it...

1:05:02
and I'm not hooked, Louis. Wait, baby.
1:05:04
Only when you needed it.
What do you think hooked is?

1:05:10
All I had to do is listen to your voice
on the telephone, and I knew.

1:05:14
Who do you think you're talking to?
1:05:15
One of those old fake cats
you be running around with?

1:05:17
I've been on those streets all of my life.
I know what that shit is.

1:05:24
It's good, ain't it?
1:05:27
Wait. Wait, wait.
1:05:31
We're going home, now.
1:05:35
Wait, hey, baby, wait.
1:05:36
See? You don't understand.
1:05:39
Now, you don't know how it is...
1:05:42
when people are looking down at you
and laughing at you...

1:05:45
and think that I'm a loser.
1:05:47
And if I go home now,
I'll think that I'm one, too.

1:05:50
I gotta prove it to them,
I gotta prove it to myself.

1:05:53
What're you proving with that needle?
1:05:55
That you're not woman enough
to make it without a crutch...

1:05:59
a magic way out
when the going gets a little too rough?
