"D" is drives
« Reply #12410 on: April 08, 2007, 07:15:38 pm »
After getting the message that Ennis's divorce came through, Jack drives northwest to Riverton, asks "about 10 different people in Riverton where you'd moved to," gets rejected by Ennis for that weekend and then drives all the way to Mexico.  Señor Jack is not a happy john.

Post-divorce, Jack drives ebulliently from Texas to Wyoming; only to be told to simmer down by Ennis.

"H" is hopeless
« Reply #12414 on: April 08, 2007, 10:49:05 pm »
Through the years, Jack resisted being entirely hopeless that Ennis would someday see the light and ranch up with him, and after the divorce, things looked brighter to him as he made the familiar trip north.

"I" is itty-bitty

While Jack and Ennis were arguing about the former's trips to Mexico, the latter didn't react to the itty-bitty insect crawling along his jawbone.

Ennis:  "Then why don't you?! Why don't you let me be, huh?  It's because of you, Jack, that I'm like this. I'm
nothin'... I'm nowhere…

Ennis groans in despair, pressing his hands against his forehead. Jack starts towards him, reaches for him.

Jack:  "Ennis… it’s okay… "

Ennis jerkily moves away, pushing Jack back.

Several times a year, Jack left his life in the fast lane and got in the express lane in order to be able to take a stroll down memory lane with Ennis.

Desolate but determined, Jack passes a milepost sign indicating that he'll be crossing the border into Mexico in 68 miles.

"N" is nosey

Lest anyone get nosey about the nature of their relationship, Ennis and Jack got together "way the hell out in the back of nowhere" a few times a year.
