Ellen Rash

You're supposed to have that thing in your head that says, "BAD **** IDEA, BOBBY!"

I do have it! It just didn't work!

Mona Dearly's dead.

Ellen Rash

What?

She's dead- It was just a- car accident.

Ellen Rash

You gotta be kiddin' me. Well- We gotta celebrate!

Jesus, God, Ellie she's a human being. Have a little respect.

Ellen Rash

I don't gotta have respect for no one in that family. Think how they treated you.

How did they treat me?

Ellen Rash

Badly, they're a houseful of freaks.

[after Ellen slaps him after explaining what he did]

What you do that for?

Ellen Rash
[outraged]

You killed Mona Dearly!

[chastened]

I know.

Ellen Rash

BUT WHY?!

Because I thought I was killing Jeff!

Ellen Rash

Bobby, my dad is the chief of police!

I know, but I wasn't gonna go through with it.

Ellen Rash

It doesn't matter; you killed someone!

I know, but I was doing it for us. Jeff was killing the business, and Mona wasn't gonna let me out of the partnership, so - Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Ellen Rash

A good idea at the time? 'Cut the grass at 6:00, lay sod at 7:00, DROWN THE DEARLYS AT 8:00'!

Ellen Rash

Yeah, but you're not even supposed to get that far, you're supposed to have that thing in your head that goes off and says, 'bad **** idea, Bobby!'

I have that thing! I have that thing. It just didn't go off.

Ellen Rash
[pause]

Yeah, well, I'm pregnant.

What? You're pregnant? That's great!

Ellen Rash

Uh huh! I thought so too, till a moment ago. I can't believe you killed someone!

[she walks off]

Where ya goin?

Ellen Rash

Home!

[quietly]

We need milk.
