You see, I understand you men were just playin' around, but the mule, he just doesn't get it. Course, if you were to all apologize... [the men laugh] I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. Gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it...

Don't you know all our men sleep here with us?
Joe Well, that's all very cozy, but I don't find you men all that appealing. Besides, your brother said he didn't have any need for me anymore right now.

Where you do what?

Adios.
