" Legs need exercise." "Yeah." " Yeah." "Huh?" "Come on over here." "Let's sit with Mr. Hollingworth." "This is our indoor therapy pool." "You'll probably be doing most of your work in here." "None of our patients can really stand the sun." "Millie." "Yes, Miss Bunweill?" " This is Pinky Rose." "She'll be starting with us today." " Hi." " Hi." " I want you to get her a suit and a locker... and show her the routine the way you did with Alcira." "Okay, but I got Mr. Shaw for after lunch." "Peggy can take over for you." "Millie's one of our best girls." " She'll show you how simple it really is." " Okay." "Okay, after lunch." " What'll I do till then?" " You can have lunch in the café... and meet Millie in the locker room afterwards." "I wanna see you before you leave tonight." "Ten more and you're finished." "Yep." "Just keep 'em movin'." " You could do some of these, too, Mr. Hollingworth, you know?" " I've done 'em." " No, it doesn't." " It's $ 100 a day." " No, it's $50 a day." " Since when?" "I'm savin'for one of those new microwave ovens I've been readin'about." "You can cook a hot dog in three minutes." "I like mine burned crisp, and you can set it to burn food just like ya like it." "I've already got 43 and a half books saved up." " Hi." " Hi." "I think I'll have the..." "chicken-fried steak with gravy." "You know the Breck girl?" "Well, they're havin' a contest to find a new one... and I'm gonna send my best picture in." "Hi." "I'm Pinky." "Remember me?" "At lunch?" "That wasn't me." " I thought you had the day off." " I did." "Old Big-Buns called me in to work for her." "Mmm, sorry." "I gotta break in a new girl." " Hi." " Hi." "I don't know why she picks me." "There's nothin'to teach." "That's probably why." " Do you guys know how to play Scrabble?" " No." "It's a real good game." "You can learn a lot of new words." "My roommate's got this boyfriend who's really good at it." "What's that supposed to mean?" "He knows some words I've never even heard of before." " Well, they say they want a receptionist." " "Orator."" " It's in the dictionary, all right." " Two of'em or one?" " Two." " I think it's some kind of, oh, professional talker or something." " That's where I could've worked." " You're too short." " You know what zebus are?" " Mm-mmm." " No." " The humps on a camel's back." " Ohh." "I didn't like the guy that I was with too much, though." "All he wanted to do was make up dirty words." "We weren't gonna play that way." " You know what we had for dinner?" " What'd you have?" "Tuna casserole." "I cooked it." " Was it any good?" " Yeah." "I got this whole book of recipes that I'm keepin'." "And I list 'em by how long they take to make." "You know, if you only have 20 minutes, you just look under 20 minutes... and it tells ya all the kind of things that you can make in that amount of time." "That makes sense." "It's real good." "It's really not a book, but a kind of file with times marked on it." "You don't say." " Pretty good." " Uh-huh." "Couldn't improve it" "Oh, um Polly, this is Pinky." "Pinky, that's Polly." " Hi, Millie." " Hi." " It is Pinky, isn't it?" " Yeah." " Okay, let's go get you a suit that fits." " Okay." "You ever worked in these kind of places before?" "No." "This is my first job in California." "They're not very big with the salaries here." "Oof." " You're a little like me, aren't ya?" " Yeah." "This looks like it's about as best as we can do." " Why don't you put this on?" "I'll wait for you outside." " Okay." "After you've checked the list in the morning, you'll know who you're supposed to have." "There'll be a time written right by each name." "You'll meet 'em here and they'll give you their cards." "Okay, suppose you got Mr. Shaw and it says, on his card, uh, "Mineral pool and rest."" "Well, you get him to enter the water right away." "Ten minutes is the max, though, like it says on that wall." "Then you get him out, wrap him up and put him on a chaise lounge... and he's gotta stay there for at least 20 minutes before he can go back in." "Now, you're gonna play the patient... and I'm gonna take ya in." "First we gotta take off our robes and our shoes." "Okay." "Robe." "Take off our shoes." "Okay, now, what's wrong with ya?" " Nothin'?" " Well, there's gotta be somethin'wrong with ya." " My bathing suit's too big?" " No." "I mean, why else would you be here if it weren't somethin' like your legs or your arms or" "There's gotta be somethin'wrong with ya." "Oh, my back!" "Oh, my back." " And my leg." "My leg." "My leg hurts." " Okay, your back and your legs." " This is for people with bad backs and legs." " Thank you." " Now, you're gonna have to take it real slow and easy now." " Okay." " We don't want you to get hurt." " Okay." " Just be careful 'cause it's real slippery." " Okay." "Just take it easy." " Okay." " Doesn't that feel good?" "Mm-hmm." " Oh, it's hot." " Come on back up." "It's 106º." "You know, my grandmother had a bad back and leg, too." " She did?" " Yeah." "Okay, now, do you wanna stoop and get all the way in?" "I don't know." "Am I supposed to?" " Not you." "That's what you're supposed to ask them." " Oh." " You have to kind of humor 'em." " Oh." " Sort of talk 'em into what they're supposed to do." " Yeah." "Okay, now, follow me." "I don't believe it." " If Bunweill had seen that you'd be in hot trouble." " You said all the way." "Well, now let's go do some exercises over here." "It's okay." "Now we're gonna exercise these hurt legs." "What's the matter?" "Haven't ya ever seen twins before?" "These are our individual hot tubs." "The water comes directly from the springs to here." "And over here ya got your rest area." "They probably won't let ya work the tubs until you've been here a week or two." "There's really nothin' to it... but ya just gotta know when somebody's gettin' a bad reaction." "Sometimes they can't get out by themselves, and if you leave 'em in too long they could die." " They could die?" " Yeah." "Uh-oh." "About that floater we had yesterday" "Oh, Graham, I don't know how that happened." "Took her blood pressure and she was fine." "Next she's floating face down in the pool." " Is our, uh, malpractice premium for this quarter paid?" " Yeah." " Lammoreaux?" " Yes, Dr. Maas?" " How is Miss Rose doing?" " Just fine, Dr. Maas." "Well, good." "You two should, uh, get along very well." " Don't you have something in common?" " What?" "I don't know." "Aren't you both from Texas or something?" " Couldn't you find a suit that fits you better, Rose?" " Oh, yeah." " No, ma'am." " Well, try." "Vivian, have you ever been to Texas?" " Is your name Lammoreaux?" " Uh-huh." " You French?" " Nah, I'm American." " Are you from Texas?" " Yeah, near Longview." "You?" "I'm from Houston, but I've been in California for about three years now." "You can have this locker right over here next to mine." "Thank you." "Here's your card, Rose." "Do not punch in until you are dressed." "Same thing in the evening when you punch out." "You punch first, change after and be punctual." " Good night." " Good night." "The Wurtzes went to Hawaii on a real ocean liner." "Like the kind you see on The Late Show." "They brought me a whole pamphlet full of color pictures." "They had a lei for me, too, but... it wilted by the time they got here." "It's all so colorful and exotic." " Everything from the sky at sunset to the Hilton Hotel." " It's too hot there." "Someday I'm gonna go there." "A boyfriend of mine used to live there." "He even dated a hula dancer." " You wouldn't believe some stories I've heard about hula dancers." "They're real exotic, too." "You can take hula dancing' lessons now down at Macy's Salon of Dance." "I might do it." "I like it." "It's only $12." "I think it's sexy." "All you get is a bunch of lettuce and a taco shell." " Lettuce is right." "You won't gain weight." " That's not nutrition." " A little bit ofbeans" " But that gives you gas." "There you are, Rose." "Who's breaking you in, Alcira or Doris?" " Millie Lammoreaux." " Did she show you the tubs?" " I saw them." " Did she show you the routine in the tubs?" " I think I know what to do." " You do, do you?" "Alcira will show you." "In case I don't see her, you tell her." " Is that clear?" " Yes, ma'am." "Is Millie here?" "Millie most definitely is not here, and I need every girl I've got tomorrow." " Is he asleep?" " Probably." "Can he hear us?" " His hearing aid's out." " Oh." "How long have you known Millie?" "Millie?" " You know, Millie Lammoreaux?" " Mmm." "I don't know." "A few months, I suppose." "Why?" "I don't know." "Just wondered." "She sure is nice, isn't she?" "I don't see her too much." "Just seems like she always does everything right." "Doris, the Chinese one?" "She and I are best friends." "Wonder where she is today." "We don't like the twins." "You'll learn about them soon enough." "Hope she's not sick." "I sure do miss her." "Miss Lombardi?" "You asleep?" "Guess you are." "And she came into my room with a whole bushel basket full of tomatoes." "I hardly ever dream about her, but when I do, she's always bringin' me somethin'." "But tomatoes?" "I don't even like tomatoes." "Whenever I cook spaghetti I just cook it with butter and garlic and salt." "Can't understand it." "You all ready for your bath?" " Yeah." " Okay." "Just be real careful." "I haven't seen her since I was 11." "But tomatoes?" "I mean, why would my mother bring me tomatoes?" "Okay, you just stay right here and I'll be right back." "I have to go to the little girls' room." "Okay, Miss Lombardi, you wait right here." "I'll be right back." "Gotta go to the little girls'room." " Hi, Millie." "Remember me, Pinky?" " Sure I do." "Where you been the last couple of days?" "I thought maybe you were sick." "No, my roommate moved in with her boyfriend." "I had to help 'em." " All the way to Riverside." " Oh." " Wanna go to lunch with me?" " It's okay with me." "They had really good tamales yesterday." " They were canned but tasted just like Texas to me" " Uh-oh." " Rose." " Yes, ma'am." " You left Miss Lombardi alone." " Only for a minute." "I wanna see you in my office before you go to lunch." " Do you understand?" " Yes, ma'am." "It won't happen again, Miss Bunweill." " Have you seen Millie?" " No." " Wanna have lunch?" " No, I'm supposed to eat with Millie." " She eats at the hospital." "I don't think this is good enough for her." "Right, Alcira?" "No interns here." "That's for sure." " The hospital?" " Across the street, but it costs twice as much." "Say, there's a pool where I live and I don't have a roommate anymore." "So why don't y'all come over for dinner one night?" "We could play a great game of Scrabble." "I've got this new recipe I've been wantin' to try out." "It's called penthouse chicken." "You make it with a can of tomato soup." "Takes a whole hour to cook, but believe me, it's worth it." " Say, would you check my glands for me?" " What?" "My neck glands." " They've really been swollen all week." " They look like they're fine." "Are you sure?" "I've really been feeling sluggish a lot lately." " What's a French dip sandwich?" " A French roll with beef and juice on the side." " Would you like one?" " I'll just take melon... or pie." "Oh, I forgot to tell you about dessert." "We're having banana pops." "You ever had those before?" "They're frozen bananas dipped in hot chocolate, and then before they get too dry... you roll 'em around real quick in Rice Krispies." "Read about it in McCall's." "They give you a whole bunch of recipes you can make with Rice Krispies." " Hi, Morley." " Hi." "Good enough." "What are you reading?" " The want ads." " What for?" "You're not gonna changejobs, are ya?" "For my wife." " What does she want?" " A new sofa." "I just got a new sofa, too." "Actually it's an old sofa, but I repainted it and re-covered it and everything so it looks new." " You lookin' for anything else?" " No." " A gun for your wife?" " Mm-hmm." "Last week." "Instructed her." "Took her out on the shooting range." "She feels safe now." "Guess I better be goin'." "See ya later." "Sure was nice talkin' to you guys." "I'll probably see ya tomorrow." "Judith Goldstein, 6181." " Bye." "Judith Goldstein, 6181." " Quiet lady, very quiet." " That's good for you." "I think you're a fool." " This peach pie is really stale." " Bye." "Wonder if they'd give me a fresh piece if I took it back." "You're really a fool." "She feels protected by the gun, right?" "She felt totally intimidated." "Boy" " Do you like yellow and purple?" " Mm-hmm." "They're my favorite colors." "Like irises." "I love irises." "I love flowers." "And candlelight." "They're so romantic." " It's a surefire way to win a man in one night." " Oh." "Good atmosphere and food." "You remember that old sayin'?" ""The way to a man's heart is through his stomach."" "Well, it's true a lot of times." "Boy, it sure was lucky for me you needed a roommate." "Ooh!" "What is this place?" "Disneyland?" "Nah, it's a bar." "This is my hangout." " Lot of guys hang out here, too." "Mostly cops." " Oh, a tepee!" "Oh!" "Oh, great." "Come on." "A miniature golf course!" "Oh!" "I love miniature golf!" "I do, too, but it's been closed for years." "Come on." "Look, Millie." "They caught up with me." " God." " They caught up with me." " Come on, will ya?" "I told ya there's cops in here." " Oh." "Oh." "Cops." "Let's go get a beer and see who's here." "You'll like it." "It's air-conditioned." "Looks deserted." "Some of the guys are probably out back riding' dirt bikes, though." "Yep." "What's that?" "Oh." "That's just Willie." "She paints those weird things all over the place." " She paint this, too?" " Yeah." "It's a sand painting' with bullet holes." " Want a cigarette?" " Yeah." "You hadn't seen Dirty Gertie yet." "Pull her bow and she'll say hello." "I'm gonna go put on some music." "She spit on me!" "Millie." "Millie." "Hi, Willie." "This is my new roommate, Pinky." "This is Willie." "We'll have a couple of beers." "She and Edgar run this place." "They live in that house out back." "She's gonna have a baby." "Don't pay any attention to her." "She never says much." "Wait'll you meet Edgar." "He's really funny." "He used to be on the Wyatt Earp TV show." "He knows Hugh O'Brian."

"I couldn't have imagined it being more perfect." "Thanks." " You know what?" " What?" "You're the most perfect person I ever met." "Thanks." "I don't know if I'm ever gonna have a kid." "Just depends on the guy, I think." "It's gonna have to be someone I really wanna have 'em by, though." "Like when I was born, it was just an accident." "Mother and Dad were married and everything, but... they weren't ready to have a kid." "I don't blame 'em." "It wasn't their fault." "Things were different then." "It's a lot easier to make a mistake." "And then where are you?" "Nowhere, that's where." "I plan everything I do." "I figure out what it is I want, and then I set out to do it." "Like this apartment." "I've been decorating'it ever since I moved in." "And even if I fell in love with a guy and wanted to get married..." "I wouldn't move into his place." "He'd have to move in with me." "And even then I'd wanna know everything there is to know about him." "Including'money and health." "Bathroom's empty now." "You can have it." "Okay." " What's that you're wearin'?" " My coat." " Don't you have a bathrobe?" " Not yet." " Can you sew?" " Mm-hmm." " Okay, you can have this if you can fix it." " Thanks, Millie." "Yeah." "I'm makin'us some tuna melts for dinner." "They're real easy and they only take about 15 minutes to make." "I'll tell ya how so you can make 'em yourself in case I'm out on a date or somethin'." "First you open all the cans andjars so you'll have 'em ready when you go to mix 'em." "Then you drain a can of tuna, and you dump it into a big mixing'bowl." "Now ya add a tablespoon full of mayonnaise... and some salt and pepper, and ya taste it to make sure it's okay." "It's okay." "Pretty." "Next ya dice up, not chop up, some onions and some celery... and ya mix 'em in real even so that... you don't get a big bite of onion or somethin' when you're eatin' it." "If you don't have any onions or any celery... you can just use some dehydrated onions or some celery salt." "That's what I'm doin'." "We didn't have any onions." " How'd ya like it?" " Mmm." "It's great." " It's a lot better with real onions on it." " I can't tell the difference." " You know what I like best about it, though?" " What?" " You didn't put any tomatoes in it." " Tomatoes?" "I hate tomatoes." "Even when I have spaghetti I don't put tomato sauce on it." " I just use that other white stuff." " You don't like tomatoes?" "Me either." " They call 'em love apples, but I don't love 'em." " I don't either." " You take the pill?" " Pi The pill." " Well, sometimes." " Me, too." "But you can get a bad reaction from it... so I just take it whenever I know I'm gonna do somethin'." " You know what that is?" " That?" " Yep." " A shelf." " Nope." " I give up." " It's a rollaway bed." " What for?" " For whenever we have company." " Ohh." "I slept on it a lot before my roommate, Deidre, moved out." "I fill in my diary every night, whether anything happened that day or not." "Got a lot to write about today." "You." "I have a new roommate." "Of all people, it's Pinky, the new girl at work." "She's a strange person, but it's better than waitin'around... for some fat nurse to answer the notice." "On the way home I took her to Dodge City for a beer." "All the guys were ridin'dirt bikes out back, so we didn't stay long." "Edgar pulled one ofhis tricks on Pinky." "She fell for it till the end." "She sure doesn't have much to her name, but she does have a sewing machine... and maybe will make me a new dress or somethin'." "She loves the apartment." "I guess she's never lived in a decorated place before." "Anyway, we're all settled in." "Last one in bed turns out the lights." "Good night, Millie." "I hope ya don't mind riding' the bus home tonight." "I got a hot date." " I don't mind." " Normally, I won't go out with a guy... unless he provides for the transportation, but tonight I'm makin' an exception." "Jeffo's car is in the shop." "Besides, he's worth makin' an exception for." "He's real cute." "Oh, yeah, and don't wait up for me." " I'll probably be home real late." " Okay." "Bye." " Have a good time." " I will."

" Huh?" " Twins." "Bet it'd be weird." "Do you think they know which one they are?" "Sure they do." "They'd have to, wouldn't they?" "I don't know." "Maybe they switch back and forth." "You know, one day..." "Peggy's Polly." "Another day, Polly's Peggy." "Who knows?" "Maybe they're the same one all the time." " Can we just talk about somethin' else now?" " Yeah." "What?"

" The neck." " The neck?" "You killer." "I'd rather face a thousand crazy savages than one woman who's learned how to shoot." "No, I've been up for hours." "Well, I kind of got a tentative date for tonight." "Why?" "Really?" "Well, it's nothin' I can't get out of." "I've stood this guy up so many times before and he just keeps comin' back for more."
