Hi, Rose-Ann. It can't be that late.
You're early.
Early? I feel like I've been standing
on my feet for a week.
Cleaning up after a bunch of slobs!
Hey, what you been up to?
Where's my supper?
- I'm just gonna get it.
- "I'm just gonna get it," what?
- I'm just gonna get it, Rose-Ann.
- That's better!
I can't have some proper respect
in my own home!
- Who's been guzzling my gin?
- I don't know, Rose-Ann.
I know there was a slug or two
in the bottom of this.
The old bum! When he gets home,
I'm gonna pin his ugly ears back!
Why did you have to leave
that thing there?
And they're all loose!
Why ain't they been strung together?
Answer me!
Or would you like a slug in the puss?
Quiet, bigmouth!
Button it up for once in your life!
You no-good drunk,
you've been guzzling my gin again.
Get lost!
For crying out loud!
Could have broken my lousy neck.
- How did all that junk get on the floor?
- Ask her! Ask Lady Selina!
Come on, now! No dinner ready?
No beads strung? What's with you?
I'm sorry.
I went out today, and the time...
- You went out! Where?
- Just in the park.
The park? How in the hell
did you get yourself to the park?
Mr. Faber took me
after he come with the beads.
Faber? He's got a nerve!
Wasn't his idea.
I've been at him for ages.
You've been scheming behind my back?
Listen, you get any more big ideas
like that, and you tell me about them!
You understand?
I'm sorry, Rose-Ann.
I didn't think you'd mind.
Well, I do. I do mind, see?
- Did you see my specs anywheres?
- No, Ole Pa.
Rose-Ann?
- Rose-Ann?
- What?
If I promise to get all my work done
on time, couldn't I go again tomorrow?
Who do you think here has got time
to take you to the park?
- Old Faber don't come tomorrow.
- You could take me, Ole Pa.
- No, he can't. You ain't going.
- Please! What you got against it?
It sticks out a mile!
When will you do your beads?
I'll take them.
I'll work double-quick in the park.
If I don't do twice as much work,
I'll give up the idea. I promise.
Says you!
When will you do your work here?
I'll get up earlier
and stay up longer.
I want my supper on time,
like I'm used to.
Do you good to skip supper
once in a while, blubber belly!
- Old beer belly talking about blubber.
- Only one thing messing up your idea...
...and it ain't fatso's supper.
- What, then?
- You could. I can wait!
Many a time, I'm not on my way
until it's good and dark.
Is that all? Dark's nothing to me.
I'm always in the dark.
How about that.
So you are.
You hear that, Rose-Ann?
With her face,
I wouldn't parade around the street.
What's wrong with my face?
- Lf you could see, you'd know.
- It ain't true.
- Is there something wrong with my face?
- No. Pay no attention to her.
Her face is a mess! Now, come on,
get moving with the supper.
I got a heavy night in front of me.
And would you clean up those beads?
Forget about the park, Selina.
You got a nice, quiet life here.
No problems. Where's my purse?
Have supper on time tonight.
And as for you, try and get home
sober for once, pig face!
Go jump in the lake.
Ole Pa?
Does this look better, Ole Pa?
Will you take me if I wear this?
Okay.
Get some clothes on you, then,
and take that God-awful hat off.
You don't want none
of Rose-Ann's trappings.
You sure, Ole Pa?
I mean, if my face is so bad?
It ain't bad. It's just your eyes.
It's only that people are so nosy.
When you was a kid,
they was always at it.
"Poor little girl," they'd say.
"What happened?"
Rose-Ann used to get so mad.
Well, come on. Get a move on.
