Act 2, Scene 6 Flashcards
(1) Emily: Hello. I’m Emily.
Well, hi there, sugar. I’m Norma. I like your dress, Emily, it’s real pretty.
(2) Emily: My mom made it!
Well, your mom’s real talented, and you are a very lucky girl.
(3) Emily: Your top is pretty too.
This ole thing?
(4) Sarah: stomach for it.
Oh, don’t mind her. She don’t know kids. Would you like a charm, Emily?
(5) Emily: Yes please!
Uh, oh. Fraid all I got is a breath mint.
(6) Emily: Thank you very much.
Who does your hair like that Emily, you or your mom?
(7) Emily: my own braid.
Right. You’d have to have some long arms! Like a monkey. You got any pets, Emily?
(8) Emily: veterinarian.
That so? Man, I always wanted a dog. But my mom didn’t care for animals. I don’t understand that. I mean, all a dog wants is to love you. All kids should have a dog. Should be a law, right?
(9) Emily: your kids have?
Well, my daughter, Melissa…She’s grown now…But she had a dachshund. Just loved her to bits. Followed her everywhere. Like a little sausage on legs. She loved that dog and that precious dog loved her.
(10) Emily: He died?
Yeah.
(11) Ronda: I know who she is.
Well, I better get back to…work.
(12) Ronda: bothering you, Miss Norma.
No.
(13) Emily: Norma? Please? Please?
I don’t think so sugar. But thanks.
Did you see that?
(14) Connie: Uh-huh.
Just like a precious angel, wasn’t she? I think she really liked me.
