The disagreement between Jack and LD about what should be done with the TV was much ado about nothing.

The minister encourages Ennis to kiss the bride by saying: "You may kiss the bride. If you don't, I will."

Jack said, "I don't know. I don't know what the Pentecost is...Mama never explained it. I guess it's when the world ends and fellas like you and me march off to hell."

After Cassie asked, "What do you do, Ennis del Mar?" Ennis told her that he had been gelding calves earlier that day.

"H" is hackles

The spat between the stud duck and Jack raised some hackles, especially when L.D. remarked to Lureen, "Hell, we don't eat with our eyes.  You want your son to grow up to be a man, don't you, daughter?"

LD instigates the stud duck spat with Jack when he turns on the TV, saying, "Hell, we don't eat with our eyes.  You want your son to grow up to be a man, don't you, daughter?"

During the dozy embrace, Ennis, dredging up a phrase from a long-ago memory, says to Jack, "Come on now, you're sleepin' on your feet like a horse."
