9 scenes Nancy Kendricks Besides, do you realize how much the duplex is going to be worth once we get both floors?
I know how much it costs.
Nancy Kendricks Well it's going to be worth like a bazillion times that.
Really? A bazillion? That's an incredible return.
We brought you this little housewarming gift. [Gives Mrs. Connelly a bottle of wine]
Oh, that's very kind of you, thank you. I'll open it for you. I don't drink myself, it's a sin.
Sit down, dears, sit down! I brought ya a little something to nibble on as well.
Oh, Bugles. Wow, I didn't realize they even still made Bugles.
[Offering Alex a Bugle dipped in French onion dip]

Magnificent parrot.
It's not a parrot, dear. He's a macaw. He's named after my late husband, Richard. I've had Little Dick for forty years.
Nancy Kendricks Alex is a writer.
Oh, a writer. I always thought of that as more of a hobby than a real job. I suppose I'm forgettin' about Joyce.

He died drunk and penniless.
Nancy Kendricks Well, Alex's first novel was published in hardback, and he's just about to finish his second one.
Oh, what's it about?

[Bored, cutting him off]
Oh, that's nice. Let me give you a refill. Big Dick had the taste, too. He was a seaman. The drink took him from me in 1963. We'd been married for 58 years.
[Nancy counts silently]
I wonder how old she is.
Nancy Kendricks My guess is that she's somewhere between 95 and 105.
Nancy, did you finish the Celebrity Scene page?
Nancy Kendricks Oh, tickety boo.
I don't know what that means.
Nancy Kendricks It means you'll have it soon.
Well if you mean I'll have it soon, then why don't you say 'I'll have it soon'? I mean, 'tickety boo' is just confusing, for everybody!
Nancy Kendricks Were you napping?
No! I was... I was just rearranging my book collection.
Nancy Kendricks In the dark?
And then I just shut my eyes, for a second...
Nancy Kendricks Look! I got a peacock!
What does it do?
Nancy Kendricks It's there to be decorative and look pretty and be aesthetically pleasing.
I always thought it was strange, your husband staying home while you were out there, providin'.
Nancy Kendricks Well, he's a writer.
[laughs]
Writer? The man naps more than a newborn pup. What's he writing about, sheep?
Nancy Kendricks Is there something, Mrs. Connelly?
Oh, I guess ya could say there was something! I've got 'something' on display in my kitchen.
Nancy Kendricks [Cut to a scene in Connelly's kitchen]
That is not a mouse dropping, it's a raisin.
That is the leavings of a mouse.
Nancy Kendricks It's a raisin!
[Nancy puts the raisin in her mouth. Her expression turns to disgust as she hacks up the raisin]
I spayed it with Lysol.
Nancy Kendricks You were choking on a chocolate.
[Connelly looks at Alex, who has lipstick on his lips from when he was reviving her]
You choked on a chocolate.
Awww!
Officer Dan [Cut to the police station]
Go on, Mrs. Connelly.
The last thing I remember, I ate one of their chocolates. When I woke up, he was havin' his way, and she was holdin' me down!
No, no, I was trying to save her life!
He stole my drawers once. For sniffin'!
That's ridiculous! She was choking on a chocolate so I gave--
Officer Dan DO... shut up.
Nancy Kendricks Come on, come on. We don't have much time.
I know, she's running errands. That only gives us twelve hours.
Nancy Kendricks Poor Mr. Peabody!
He took one for the team.
