Florence! I'm goin' to tell you some things I never thought I would. You're just a plain, common, selfish, vulgar woman! You don't care one penny for anybody except yourself. You an' your clothes an' your movies an' your sodas an' your candy! Look at the way you been leavin' this house lately. The four years I've lived with you would drive a saint to Hell! I wish I'd never seen you! Mrs. Madden. D' y' think I'm goin' t' stay in this house t' be talked to like that? D' y' think I'm goin' t' stand that kind of a thing? I guess... you'll be... pretty sorry when I've... gone. If... if I did somethin'... if somethin'... happened t' me... I guess you... you wouldn't never... f'give yerself! Madden. I don't worry about you. You wouldn't do anything like that. You're too yellow! Mrs. Madden. You'll... see!
