( stammering )

What did I say now?

Teenagers.

So, how are the lobsters

running, dad?

Lobsters don't run...

They crawl.

Oh...

Well, do you need

any help on the boat?

OK, what is it?

Out with it.

Well...

I want to start riding again.

Would you like some

Ice cream with your pie?

Answer's still no.

May I please be excused?

Yup.

Ay- ay- ay...

Give me patience.

Sometimes I can't help myself.

Things just pop out.

You're the bratty little sister.

That's your role

in the family unit.

I think you have a nice figure.

I hope I look like you one day.

That'll come sooner

than you think.

Don't push it.

Why do you like Darrow?

He's such a jerk.

If he's such a jerk,

then why hasn't he told dad

about you feeding the foal.

Well, he wouldn't do that...

would he?

Why do you even want to ride

after what happened to Mom?

I am glad Dad sold Twister to Blake.

I hate that horse.

It wasn't Twister's fault.

Mom told us that

at the hospital.

I know that now.

I knew that then.

( sobbing )

I just couldn't understand it.

I still don't understand it.

( whistling )

Stormy!

(whinnying )

Hey, boy.

Here you go.

Want to go for a ride tonight?

Come on, boy.

Go.

(Virginia ):

"Twister came through again. "

"Best heart and lungs"

"on any horse

you could ever find. "

"Our third Memorial Day

victory in a row. "

"Blake offered

to buy her again. "

"Ford told him he'd have to

start looking for another wife. "

"A wise man. "

"I'm thinking we should

have another baby. "

"Haven't decided

whether I should"

"let Ford in on

the scheme yet. "

"Our surprise package

arrived last night"

"at 2:
42 a. m.,"

"four days apart from Caroline. "

"They told me the second one

is always easier... they lied. "

"14 hours in labour and she came

out kicking and screaming. "

"I think she's going to be

a force of nature. "

Easy... get hold of him, boys.

Easy, fella, easy.

Keep control of him. Jeez!

We got him for you. Get on.

Take him.

Come on, let's see

what you got. Come on.

Let's go. Ha!

Go easy, Darrow, go easy.

Hey, come on. Let's go.

Tighter, let's go.

Go easy.

Just work him slower, Darrow.

Yeah! Come on.

Hey!

Come on.

Hey. Whoa!

Stormy, stop!

Whoa, boy!

Son of a...

- Come here, boy.

- You all right?

- Easy, boy.

- Get off me.

Should have that horse shot.

This is a western bit.

Does he look like

a barrel horse to you?

You might as well

have used barbed wire.

You're right... he doesn't

look like a barrel horse.

He looks like a dead horse.

It's all right.

No one's going to hurt you.

Ah, the, uh, the bottle-nosed

deer fly. They're the worst.

Excuse me?

A wide splatter pattern,

and, uh, very sticky.
