One thing I can say for you, your approach is always different. Today, it's complete submission. I can't even get a rise out of you. You know, I think I like you better when you're sloppy drunk and violent. That's the real you, and that's the one I like, the one that hates me and gives me a chance to hate back. Well, that's a novelty - you're refusing anything with alcohol in it! I'm not used to seeing you sober this time of day. You try to hide what you are in the fumes of whisky. Old women always give me the creeps! Malla What woman lives, who has passed the prime of her life, that would not give her remaining years to reclaim even a few moments of joy and happiness and to know the worship of men? You will never escape me, you are the one in my dreams of blood!

Bertram Garvay: There's only one trouble with running away - you always meet yourself when you get there. June Talbot: Did you say whiskey? Here's to you whiskey - guardian of all frustrated wives.
