3 Women Page #3

All you get is a bunch of lettuce

and a taco shell.

- Lettuce is right. You won't gain weight.

- That's not nutrition.

- A little bit ofbeans

- But that gives you gas.

[Sighs]

There you are, Rose.

Who's breaking you in, Alcira or Doris?

- Millie Lammoreaux.

- Did she show you the tubs?

- I saw them.

- Did she show you the routine in the tubs?

- I think I know what to do.

- You do, do you?

Alcira will show you.

In case I don't see her, you tell her.

- Is that clear?

- Yes, ma'am. Is Millie here?

Millie most definitely is not here,

and I need every girl I've got tomorrow.

[Snoring]

- Is he asleep?

- Probably.

Can he hear us?

- His hearing aid's out.

- Oh.

How long have you known Millie?

Millie?

- You know, Millie Lammoreaux?

- Mmm.

I don't know.

A few months, I suppose. Why?

I don't know.

Just wondered.

She sure is nice,

isn't she?

I don't see her too much.

Just seems like she always does

everything right.

Doris, the Chinese one?

She and I are best friends.

[Snoring]

Wonder where she is today.

We don't like the twins.

You'll learn about them soon enough.

Hope she's not sick.

I sure do miss her.

[Sighs]

[Exhales]

[Snoring]

Miss Lombardi?

You asleep?

Guess you are.

[Sighs]

And she came into my room with

a whole bushel basket full of tomatoes.

I hardly ever dream about her, but when I do,

she's always bringin' me somethin'.

But tomatoes?

I don't even like tomatoes.

Whenever I cook spaghetti I just cook it

with butter and garlic and salt.

Can't understand it.

You all ready for your bath?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- [Snoring]

- Just be real careful.

I haven't seen her

since I was 11.

But tomatoes?

I mean, why would my mother

bring me tomatoes?

[Sighs]

Okay, you just stay right here and I'll be right back.

I have to go

to the little girls' room.

[Pinky] Okay, Miss Lombardi,

you wait right here. I'll be right back.

Gotta go

to the little girls'room.

- Hi, Millie. Remember me, Pinky?

- Sure I do.

Where you been the last couple of days?

I thought maybe you were sick.

No, my roommate moved in with her boyfriend.

I had to help 'em.

- All the way to Riverside.

- Oh.

- Wanna go to lunch with me?

- It's okay with me.

They had really good tamales yesterday.

- They were canned but tasted

just like Texas to me - Uh-oh.

[Running]

- Rose.

- Yes, ma'am.

- You left Miss Lombardi alone.

- Only for a minute.

I wanna see you in my office

before you go to lunch.

- Do you understand?

- Yes, ma'am.

- [Chattering]

- It won't happen again, Miss Bunweill.

- Have you seen Millie?

- No. - Wanna have lunch?

- No, I'm supposed to eat with Millie.

- She eats at the hospital.

I don't think this is good enough for her.
