When Ennis quickly did what Alma hated, it rubbed her the wrong way.

Riverton: Evening: 1967:
Ennis comes in, dusty, dirty.
Two little girls, one running, one toddling: Alma Jr. , and little Francine, eager to see their daddy. 
Alma is at the stove, has made chicken fried steak. Makes gravy.
Alma (stirring):  "Ennis, you know somebody name a Jack? From Texas?"
Ennis, about to pick up Francine, stops.
Ennis:  "I might.  Why?"
Alma (gestures toward the kitchen table):  "You got a postcard. It come General Delivery."   [2003 screenplay]

"W" is willfulness
« Reply #9275 on: December 08, 2006, 10:20:12 am »
L.D. Newsome lost his willfulness and his desire to be the stud carver when Jack told him: "Like Hell.  He's gonna finish eatin' a meal that his mama took three hours fixin'.  You sit down, you old son-of-a-bitch! This is my house, this is my child and you are my guest.  Now you sit down before I knock your ignorant ass into next week."     [movie]

Ennis felt that he was out on a limb because his actions in TSI resulted in an xtremity of confusion and fear.

"Y" is yoo-hooing

By whistling, Ennis could get the blue heelers to follow directions without a lot of yoo-hooing.
