Do you know where I live?

Stanley? Stanley?

Ugh. What's this?

- Dinner.

- Wait a minute.

You look like you're goin'

to Sunday services.

I have a date.

You know what, Grace?

I would never have

allowed myself to think

you and I would be sittin' here

together eatin' dinner

and bein' friends like this.

Really?

I told my sister

I had a date tonight,

and you should've seen her face.

I have to spend a lot

of time with her,

and...

focus all of my attention on her.

Stanley.

Do you think I could have

a cup of coffee?

Well, my mama liked yams.

You know, she died

when she was 89 and a half.

She was a good woman.

Did you know I...

I write poetry,

uh, song lyrics?

L... I wrote a song about you, Grace.

Burnside,

you are not going to sing to me.

I don't know what you expect,

but why don't you

just take me home

before you embarrass yourself

any more.

I'm sorry, Grace. I just... I...

I just didn't understand

what you were

lookin' for in a man.

Luau.

What's the matter with that?

Take me home, Burnside.

You just don't have it.

What... uh...

Why are you making this a problem?

I love you, Grace.

This is a pathetic joke.

I love you.

Stanley, will you just...

Stanley, my hair.

Ugh!

Aah!

Oh, Grace.

You are my love

Your eyes

Are as clear as

The sky a

Your hair is so long

Your skin is so white

Grace 4'

I love

You

$80.4'

I have an announcement.

Hold on.

Last night our own Ms. Scott

was murdered.

Strangled, dumped

in the middle of the road.

There will be services tomorrow

at Johnson's Funeral Home.

1:
00 pm. You may attend.

Ain't that some sh*t?

- Huh?

- That's a shame.

Huh.

I was thinking about

asking her out.

What the hell happened

to the side of your face anyway?

Were you choking the chicken

and fall out of bed or what?

Stanley?

Stanley?

We can't let a little thing like this

interrupt our romance,

can we, darling?

Grace.

What we should've had together.

Look at you.

Who knew you were so beautiful?

Why didn't you let anyone

really see your face?

To you and I

and our night...

together.

Hey, Stanley.

You're driving tomorrow, right?

- You better believe it, Burt.

- All right.

Hey, we goin' bowlin' Saturday?

All right.

Stanley, could you come upstairs please?

I've been wanting you all day long.

I worked for hours

to look good for you

- when you came home.

- Thank you.

You're not goin' out tonight,

are you?

Bowling or anything?

No. Tonight I'm staying home.

I hardly ever see you anymore.

Water's ready.

All right.

Aren't you gonna wash my back?

Don't forget my shoulders.

You know,

Christmas is getting so close.

We should do something nice

in Daddy's memory.
