25
You call that help? Did you think I would be impressed?
Why would I wanna impress you?
26
Let me win? Lady I could mop up this floor with you, any time you want. Like I been doin' with Monty all day long.
Oh that's right, Flick. [Patrician accent] We're traveling together. He's been in the family generations.
27
You better watch your mouth corporal.
Yes sir! [Derisive, mocking]
28
Wanna take this outside?
Any time you want.
29
Stop it! Coupla barnyard cocks. Ever chop the head off one? Brain the size of a walnut. Tiny little peckers too.
You're a kick. [Looks quizzically]
30
Montgomery? I'm so sorry I haven't been calling you by your proper name.
Flick, you are in so much trouble now.
31
Twelve years of ugly oughta be worth something.
You gonna mix and match?
32
I'm not tellin. You'll only make fun.
Someone's gone fishing.
33
Promise, Mont-gomery?
Long as you don't call me that.
34
But I'm not telling you, at least till you stop squabbling and pretend you're actually listening.
Pretty, please. Vii-lut. Sugar on top?
35
[Music] From no big deal to the star of a picture show
You should ask that Preacher for some Ursula Andress legs.
36
I think my legs are fine.
No but, rising outta the ocean in that white Dr. No bikini?
37
What's the matter with my legs?
Nothing! They're... long.
38
[Music] All I need is someone, to wonder, who is she to ask how to meet me
St Louis? Nah.
39
[Music] To love me all to pieces
They're 8 games out with 30 to go.
40
But look at that Lou Brock. His legs belong in a museum somewhere. And Bob Gibson? The man has an arm of steel.
Thirty to go, like I said. [Notice Violet shifts, look up] Say, Viii-lut, if you're gon' be Bridget Bardot, why stay in Tulsa? Why not go all the way to Hollywood, Californ-i-ay
41
[Music] Mama, Why's a Man Have Eyes?
If you're gon' be pretty, I'll tell you what, I'll go AWOL, I'll go right along with you, Right Flick?
42
[Music] You got to give it room, and let it sing
Comfy, you two?
43
Montgomery.
It's Monty.
44
Memphis, last stop. Check inside the station for connection times.
I was thinking, Flick. It's Friday night in Memphis! How 'bout we get some rooms at that place you showed me?
45
Sure. Wanna join us, Violet?
Flick. Viii-lut's got a big day ahead of her tomorrow, with that preacher pulling rabbits outta hats and all.
46
These kinfolk expecting you, Vi-oh-lette?
You prob'ly know us by now, better 'n them
47
I don't know.... I don't think it would be right.
Oh c'mon, Viii-lut, I dare you to have some fun. That would be the real miracle, right?
48
I never said I was afraid to have fun.
Didn't have to, it was written all over your face
49
But I'm taking the 6AM bus outta here, with or without you two. [Glares at Monty]
There's your first miracle, right there. I called it.
50
Forget about Elvis. Memphis is Beale Street, and Beale Street is the blues! [Violet kicks off shoes and steps onto the bed]
How's the bed. Comfy?
51
Maybe this was a bad idea.
Naaah. You wash up, come down the hall, we'll get throw-a-baby-to-the-hogs drunk, ya hear? Do sump'n we can write in that book of yours.
52
[Music] Rooster Go Cock-A-Doodle-Ooo, Cock-A-Doodle-Oodle-Ive
Ladies, ladies! Who here feels like dancing?
53
[Music] Wake up my dear, It's a Quarter to-five, Who'll be the one, if not-a-me
Little sister, care for a spin?
54
Man like that asks you to dance, you dance.
Who's that over there, little sister -
55
[Music] Who'll be the one if not me
Look at her, lying there all defenseless like that.
56
You shouldn't read that.
"Praise God for Memphis and for two new friends." One a them is me! Maybe you're dreaming about me right now. I hope we're up to no good!
57
I don't think I want to hear this.
"There's a Gideon Bible in my room, and inside it are a lot of dirty words somebody wrote. / It's like something...
58
It's like something Montgomery would do.
You think you're so smart.
59
Smarter'n you.
You are so fulla shit.
60
So what are you hangin' around my room for.
[Music] Last time I came to Memphis...
61
What happened to you two? You were gonna tell her to get ready.
But Flick, are you ready?
62
To do what?
[Music] Get Loaded, Get Plastered, Its the Principal Skill...
63
I brought you a sody pop.
Plus a little sump'n to spruce it up.
64
Mmm. Peppery. Where's that music coming from again?
Let's find out. [Music] Let's get boozy, get hazy...
65
[Violet finds her bed, gets in it]
Fuck! Viii-lut?
66
What, what! Where's Flick?
I could wake him up. Might get awful crowded though. What's at smell, licorice?
67
Anise. To keep my dreams sweet.
Honey you ain't dreaming now.
68
I'll be gentle.
You should see me race my Norton sometime, Viii-lut. Covered in mud? Black leather pants, jacket-tools stuck all over my body with duct tape -
69
The secret life of boys.
C'mon Viii-lut. One day I'll come through, um...
70
Spruce Pine.
Spruce Pine, flat out, throw you up behind me on my cycle! We'll lean all the way through them mountains. Would you like that? You can jes' holler and hang on. [Look at Violet, Pause] When I told my mama I put in for Special Forces she just burst into tears. Couldn't stop crying. I thought she'd be proud of me.
71
I bet she is though.
She coulda said so. [Too personal, pause, change subject] [While Yawning] My Norton though, she's a working piece of iron, I mean she has guts.
72
Oh, so now you're going to sleep on me?
Ain't you tired?
73
You're the one who woke me up.
Are you sorry that I did? Anyway, I wasn't the first, was I
74
So.
So I hope he was good to you. My Norton though, she's got the best front forks of anybody, she'll run you up a tree trunk and down the other side...
75
Ready or not, Montgomery.
Monty. Monty Monty Monty Mon... You're doin' that on purpose.
76
Here, take it. Have a nice life.
I better go back and get her.
77
No! Leave her be.
If she don't come out, how'm I gonna wish her luck?
78
What's the difference. We're never gonna see her again.
I don't know. Maybe.
79
If you do go back there, you better set her down gentle. She's not a one-nighter.
She might surprise you there. Anyway, it ain't so easy for me. I take one look in them sad eyes, I'm ready to promise her anything she wants.
80
Yeah but soon's you break that promise, it'll hit her twice as hard.
Least I won't be with her when it hits.
81
That's what you think? Damn. I got no time for a boy like you.
Nah, now wait a minute Flick. C'mon, you're right. What do I say?
82
[Music] But when you started to cry, boy I tell you, that was a first
Viii-lut! You all right in there? You worried / or something?
83
[Music] Made Good Time Crossin' Oklahoma
Viii-lut there you are... I wasn't sure which bus you'd be on.
84
It was all I could do not to sneak a look before I got here. Well? What do you think?
I tried to tell you what would happen. But you didn't wanna hear it.
85
Vi-oh-lette [Flick]
Sergeant Grady Fliggins. What brings you here.
86
I been waiting since daylight, scared to miss you, scared you might not...
Come with me to San Francisco. I made it, Viii-lut! I'm a Green Beret.
87
Go away. Both of you. Don't look at me!
We'll have a few days together before I go. See, I got to fly from San Francisco, I'm goin to Viet Nam.
88
Not me.
Nah, only Special Forces gets to go. And they only take the good soldiers, right? [Short laugh] Just a joke. Look, I found a ring in my Crackerjack. [Holds it out to her] I'll get you a real one in San Francisco, I promise. See I didn't know if you'd even come back for me. But you did. So what do you say, Viii-lut. Wanna hitch a ride on the Montymobile?
89
Please, I'm so ashamed.
I didn't mean to... Don't cry. Things'll be okay. It barely even counts as a war. Flick, make her stop? [Pockets ring] I'll write to you, Viii-lut. How's that? Listen, I'm gon' miss you. Wish me luck.
90
How much money did I win from you?
Gimme a break, this supposed to be a friendly game, not a killin’
91
Leave the girl in peace
What the hell is wrong with you
