"At ease." "Take a break." "Oh, Dyer..." "I'm awful sorry." "I got a big mouth." "Gee, it's kind of nice in here." "Are all steam rooms like this?" "Mm-hmm." "Why do you want to walk out on me?" "It ain't you." "It's your life." "It's like a grenade range." "And it's me, too." "Lordy." "What do you mean it's you, too?" "Ooh, a mystery!" "Come on." "I told you about the football team." "See..." "I'm a sergeant in the fucking army." "I'm A.W.O.L." "I should've been back three weeks ago." "You ain't no chauffeur?" "No, ma'am!" "No, ma'am." "No chauffeur, not the Lone Ranger." "I been had." "Sometimes I get scared maybe the army's all I know." "I've been in since I was 1 8." "1 8?" "Yeah, I joined on my birthday." "You know... hot food, roof over my head, socks all lined up in a row." "It was a beautiful thing." "And then it kind of went sour." "Are you thinking about walking away for good?" "Yeah."

"Well, that's specific!" "I'm gonna wait in the car." "Rose, can I have your autograph?" "You find some hustler." "You're with him 1 0 minutes, and just because he hasn't picked your pocket yet, or said you look like Petunia Pig" "You think he's the white knight!" "There's few real men left." "I got one, and I'm gonna hang on." "After that Florida show, he and I are going away together." "They'll bury you in the remainder racks!" "Yeah?" "Well, I'll take my chances!" "What does he feel about it?" "He don't know about it yet." "Let's get out of here." "You can't just leave." "You got to be crazy!" "You got your whole career!" "Stay until after that show back home, and I'll go anywhere with you." "I'll go to the woods or to the mountain top, out of sight." "Out of the country." "Out of the world." "Oh, Rose." "Rose!"

"Step right up, ladies and gentlemen." "See the show." "It's about to start." "Five minutes to show time." "Hey!" "Hey." "Is there a dude in here by the name of Houston Dyer?" "Dyer?" "Get out!" "I hope your goddamn chickens die!" "You lousy farmers!" "What the hell was that?" "Did you see her hair?" "Oh, God, I was such a good lay." "How could he leave me?" "Mal, what's wrong with me?" "Nothing." "Should've..." "I should've gone to college." "Wait a minute, fella." "Whoa!" "I'll clear the area." "Ah, to hell with him." "I don't give a damn about him anyway." "You positive?" "Nope." "What do we do now?" "There's only one thing left to do." "What's that?" "Go home." "Did you find her?" "No." "The only thing I do have is she and the kid tore up Memphis looking for Dyer." "They never went back to the hotel." "Black coffee, honey." "She better show tonight, or I'll break her fucking feathers for her." "God, look at this." "Oh, lord." "Feels funny, huh?" "It sure feels funny." "It look littler?" "You said it." "Littler and poorer... and dirtier... and meaner." "This is where I went to high school." "The football field." "Got me some memories of the football field." "This is the vacant lot where I got my first kiss." "Eddie Pompadour was his name." "Eddie Pompadour?" "Eddie fucking Pompadour, dear." "I was 1 2 years old." "His name wasn't Eddie Pompadour, but I called him that because he had this Elvis Presley complex." "It went to his hair." "There was a swoop in the front." "I thought he was it, man." "See that?" "That's my house over there." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "See those two people in the yard?" "That's my mother and father." "Come on, man, let's go." "Can you get the phone?" "Can't you get it?" "What a wonderful answer!" "Oh, there's Leonard's Grocery!" "You feel like a Dr. Pepper?" "Sure." "Is there something I can do for you?" "Don't you know who I am?" "Nope." "I can't say I do." "Give me a Moon Pie and a Dr. Pepper, Mr. Leonard." "Oh, it's MaryJo-- Rose Foster!" "How you been, Mary Rose?" "What brings you back to these parts?" "Jeez!" "Maybe next time you'll know who I am." "I am the Rose." "The Rose!" "My God, this is her!" "Look at her." "It looks exactly like her." "I don't believe it!" "49 is good." "49, please." "51 , please." "Check, one, two." "Send." "Test." "O.K., that's good." "Check the crossover, then bring it up around 300." "Boost, bottom." "Boost, test." "O.K., that seems real close." "We need more volume." "Will you show 53 up?" "Thank you." "I checked out every hospital and sheriff's office from here to Memphis." "She'll be here." "I'm worried about her, man." "Don't worry." "She'll be here." "She needs this concert." "She'll crawl on her hands and knees to get here." "Hold it!" "Hold it!" "Hold it!" "You can't go in there, lady." "Aah!" "Hey!" "Hey, stop that woman!" "Stop that car!" "Well, I'll be damned!" "What did I tell you?" "I made it." "Yeah." "Yeah, I see." "Yeah, and, uh..." "I been doing some thinking." "Oh, yeah?" "Yeah." "And... it's definite, Rudge." "I'm gonna take a year off." "Uh-huh." "And, uh... yeah, go ahead." "Uh..." "I, uh..." "I don't want to hurt the band, so..." "I think..." "I think it's a good idea if we keep them on salary... after tonight, just until I..." "I can decide when... when to come back." "Stuff like that." "You finished?" "Yeah, I'm finished." "Do you know what this is?" "No." "You ought to." "You signed it." "It must be my contract." "Right." "Good." "Been reading it." "I've been reading it and thinking about it." "I've been thinking about us." "All those filthy holes we played." "All those nickel and dime hustlers" "I had to bargain with every time you opened your mouth." "And not all for you." "For me, too." "Because I loved it." "I loved it!" "I loved getting hold of a selfish, hopeless junkie and turning her into a performer that they're willing to mortgage Australia for." "You want to play Brisbane?" "London?" "Do you want to play Paris, Tokyo?" "When last night I woke up, and I thought... fuck all this." "Did we go down the road together, or didn't we?" "I came to a decision." "Either you fulfill all the commitments you asked me to make for you, or you fulfill none of them." "Do you get it?" "You're not singing tonight." "You're crazy." "The concert's off." "What do you mean?" "It's my show." "I'm the promoter." "If I want to blow it I'll damn well blow it." "Everyone will get their money back." "I'll pay them myself." "By the way... uh... get yourself another manager." "I don't want you in my life anymore." "You can start your vacation right now." "You're fired." "Can I have your attention, please." "I want all stadium personnel to meet with the production crew in five minutes at the north end of the stadium." "Thank you." "Rudge!" "Rudge!" "Rudge!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "Where are you going?" "Turn around, motherfucker!" "Stop!" "Turn around!" "Don't you walk out on me!" "Listen to me." "I'm talking to you!" "Come back here!" "Come back!" "Come back!" "I'm talking to you!" "Where are you going?" "Where are you going?" "Where are you going?" "Where is everybody going?" "Oh, Rose!" "Oh, I missed you." "Houston, Houston!" "I thought I'd never see you again." "I missed you." "Oh." "Just so much." "I tried to stay away." "Houston, Houston." "Where have you been?" "I was taking care of some business." "Houston, Rudge fired me!" "Fired you?" "He fired me." "I came all this way to get everything straightened out, and he fired me!" "He can't fire you." "He works for you!" "You don't understand." "He's a promoter." "He pulled the rug right out from under me." "What am I talking to you for?" "Who the hell are you, anyway?" "God!" "I'm your own private brown-eyed motherfucker!" "Oh, you..." "Oh, you... what am I gonna do now?" "Where am I gonna go?" "I got nowhere to go." "Shit!" "I'm so goddamn mad!" "I feel so bad." "I feel so bad." "We'll go away from here, someplace where we can breathe." "All I know is how to sing." "I can't walk out on that for something that I don't know nothing about." "My whole life is falling apart, and you want to buy me a sleeping bag." "Sleeping bags are nice." "Cozy." "We'll just go till we don't want to go anymore." "Where we gonna go?" "How's Mexico grab you?" "I'm a sucker for adventure." "I really am." "Houston... there's something I want to tell you." "Come here." "Come here." "I want to whisper." "Oh, Rose." "I don't even have a sound check on her." "We have to go out and find her, get her to this concert, and forget these other goddamn commitments." "I don't pay you to think." "Are you insane?" "You want to tell these people you don't know where she is?" "Am I insane?" "I spent four years in the trenches with a certifiable section eight." "I won all the marbles." "I played my ace in the hole." "Yeah." "Maybe you'll end up winning, Rudge, but I think your little game stinks." "Oh!" "Whoa, whoa!" "Ain't nature wonderful!" "Hauling ass down to Mexico!" "Got to make myself beautiful." "You're already beautiful." "You supposed to wear glasses or what?" "Oh, look at that." "Look!" "See that neon sign?" "Pull up over there." "What for?" "That's the first place I ever sang." "We're going to Mexico." "Come on." "Please?" "I just want to see if they still know who I am." "Whoa!" "The Rose is back!" "Rosie!" "Rosie!" "How are you, sweetheart?" "Monte!" "Ooh!" "Goddamn!" "Good to see you!" "You look wonderful." "Thank you." "You're a big star now." "Don't go away." "Stay right there." "All right." "Hiya, Rose." "Hello, Billy!" "Honey, you still in town?" "Does your mother know you're out with a hippie?" "Christ, some things never change." "Now, now, now." "Heard you were in town, Rose." "Yeah, I'm in town." "Monte!" "Yeah, yeah." "Here I come!" "Come on." "Bourbon...double." "O.K. A shot glass for you, right?" "And a little bourbon." "What are you doing here?" "Came to see you." "I miss you." "You're wonderful." "What's your boyfriend want?" "He don't look happy." "Give him a Thunderbird and a ginger ale." "What do you want?" "Give me a beer." "Yeah, beer, beer." "Coming up." "All right, beer." "There you go." "Here's the bottle, and there's the beer." "Do that for me again." "A big one?" "A great big one." "Sing and the drinks are on the house." "You got it!" "O.K." "Ladies and gentlemen... the Rose is going to sing a song for us." "Give her a big hand!" "1 2 bar blues in E." "Hey, where are you going?" "To do what I do." "Hey, you with her, man?" "Yeah."
