:58:01
l made a list of attorneys.
:58:04
These are all the big muscle firms
in New York.

:58:06
Now, it could take a couple of days,
that's why on Monday...

:58:08
...you're not gonna say a word.
:58:12
Take it.
:58:27
ln case you missed it,
l'm trying to help you.

:58:29
You think l give a fiddler's fuck
what anybody else says about me?

:58:32
Oh, Jesus.
:58:34
lt's you.
:58:35
What you think is the only thing left
that's important.

:58:37
l can't send you to prison.
:58:39
You think that's the end of the world?
:58:41
Gory, that'd be a relief.
:58:43
Sit and sleep...
:58:45
...three meals served every day.
:58:46
Maybe you're just happier being miserable.
ls that it?

:58:48
ls that it, Mother?
:58:51
lf it makes it easier for you.
:58:52
Vera's a bitch. She's abusive,
she's mean, she's cheap.

:58:56
Why not leave?
:58:57
Why not just walk?
:58:58
Like they do in New York?
:59:00
Someone hurts me...
:59:02
...l leave.
:59:03
Believe me, l learned that a long time
before l got to New York.

:59:07
l'm not the one that hurt you.
:59:09
What is that supposed to mean?
:59:12
You're blaming him?
:59:14
ls that what we're into now?
:59:16
He was a drunk.
:59:18
Barely got out of his own way.
:59:21
Fine...
:59:22
...maybe he hit you.
:59:24
l don't remember it.
:59:26
You don't seem to remember
much of anything.

:59:28
But then, he's not exactly around
to defend himself, is he?

:59:35
You honest to God don't remember,
do you?

:59:40
Look.
:59:44
Here's the goddamn list.
:59:46
You do what you want with it.
:59:47
That's why you're so unsettled, ain't it?
:59:49
Unsettled?
:59:50
Don't you mean ''boogery,'' Mother?
:59:53
lf you're attempting some sort
of meaningful analysis...

:59:54
...perhaps we'd best define our terms.
:59:56
lt's a cornerstone of critical thinking...
:59:58
...communicating with
an agreed upon vocabulary.
