The Frontier Page #2
I'm sorry, Luanne.
I was wrong.
I was hurting
and... and tired.
I couldn't think past
getting some rest.
It was very kind of you to
make the offer. I'll say.
Please.
I'm afraid if I don't have
something to cling to right now,
I'll run back to him
all over again.
You're not missing him,
are you'?
It's a vicious cycle.
What about your mother
in Minneapolis?
To be honest,
she doesn't have much.
She drinks.
I suppose I'll just be a burden.
You sure have an odd way
of showing gratitude.
Is that the blouse
you wore yesterday'?
Yeah. I washed it
in the sink.
Well, we'll have to do
something about that.
Where should I start'?
Well...
(mug thuds)
Who put the noose
around your neck'?
Hey, goddamn it, Lee!
Leave her alone.
She's a good kid.
(door opens)
Good morning.
LUANNE:
Morning.(door closes)
Hi. Would you like
some coffee?
If you're pouring, I shall
drink whatever you've got.
Good morning.
Morning.
On vacation'?
Headed for Palm Springs.
My wife likes to think
that she can golf.
Can't she'?
She can swing.
Can't hit the ball,
but she can swing.
LUANNE:
Put on a fresh pot,will ya, doll'?
of those to go, for the wife.
She has a tough time
falling asleep,
but once she goes down,
a cadaver is easier to wake up.
And how long will you
stay in Palm Springs?
Shouldn't you be scrubbing
a toilet or something'?
(door opens, closes)
- Well, look who stayed.
- Good morning.
I was driving by and saw that Nova
still out there. I had a hunch.
Well, I best check on the wife.
Oh, hey, mister,
do I know you from somewhere?
Excuse me. Didn't you want a
to-go cup for your wife'?
- Oh, yes. Thank you.
- (door opens)
They took 'em!
(panting)
The diamonds!
FLYNN:
What'?They took my diamond necklace!
Now, sweetie, will you
try and calm down?
Oh, thank God, Officer.
Someone broke into my room
and stole my diamond necklace.
Officer, my wife
is obviously mistaken.
I am not mistaken.
Don't you call me mistaken!
I always put it in the side
pocket of my suitcase.
You! I bet you know
where they are!
your husband and calm down.
FLYNN:
Now, Officer, I'm dreadfully sorrythat you've been pulled into this.
- GLORIA:
He's trying to help!- But this is the third time this week
that my wife has misplaced
her zirconia necklace.
so she hides it so well
that she can't find it.
I most certainly did not hide it!
And besides...
No, darling, why don't you and
I just go search the room'?
and double-check
before you trouble
the officer any further.
