Desperate Living Page #3

Come on, now.

I'm all dressed up

in my pretty underthings...

and I need a little lip suction.

And now for that mouth.

I'd like to stick my whole head

in your mouth...

and let you suck out

my eyeballs.

I bet you'd like that,

wouldn't you?

What are you hogs looking at?

The show's over! Beat it!

Mortville's up that way!

Follow that dirt road.

Go ahead before

I haul your ass to jail!

I'll take a slice, please.

You want

lemon meringue or chocolate?

Chocolate, honey.

That'll be 10 cents.

Could you recommend

a rooming house for the night?

I don't think I like it here.

It's filthy, and

the people are repulsive.

We have no choice, Peggy,

and it's better than jail.

I'll tell you, Grizelda,

there is something wrong here.

Look around you.

It's a village of idiots.

Somebody help me.

Can't you act normal?

Just act normal for a change.

Please. There must be

a Quality Court or something.

I can't go in that hog pen.

Oh, shut up.

Can I help you?

We were raped.

Please, give us shelter.

You were raped?

Look, don't pay

no attention to her.

- We need to rent a room.

- You got money on you?

- I'm a very wealthy woman.

- Yeah, and I'm Cybill Shepherd.

Come on in here.

We might work something out...

That is, if you got money.

My name's Mole McHenry.

I'm Peggy Gravel.

It's nice to meet you.

I'm Grizelda Brown.

I'm Peggy's psychiatric nurse.

Room's out back.

Nothing fancy,

but it's a roof over your head.

Come on, I'll show you.

Shh! My girlfriend's

sleeping.

Yeah, you're lucky it's empty.

My last tenant shot himself

in here last night.

That dumb f***

left a mess everywhere.

Damn, it stinks in here.

Well, what do you think?

Do you want it or not?

Will he be removed?

I'll get the stiff out of here,

but don't think I got time...

for all the chores

in the world.

And no linens until

I soak these in cold water.

And we ain't got

no toilets in Mortville.

How do we...

I guess you'll just have

to use your imagination.

I see.

How much cash you got?

Give me that!

Six bucks.

Hey, you are a rich one.

A lottery ticket.

I'll take that, and I'll win it.

What's this? A bank book?

A lot of good

that'll do you here.

There aren't any banks

in Mortville?

There ain't nothing

here, lady.

Nobody's got one red cent

in Mortville...

except for that Queen.

The Queen? Can she help us?

You got a lot to learn

about living in Mortville.

I think we'd like

to take the room.

It's all yours, Sweetheart.

You hungry?

Yeah.

I think I'm going

to eat myself some chow...

and I got a little extra.

Looks like you got

a big appetite.

I'd be happy to help

with the preparation.

This one takes the cake.
