"O" is outnumbered

Even though the bikers outnumbered Ennis, he became hotheaded and confrontational after they ignored his request to keep it down.

"P" is prank

When Jack lassoed Ennis's cowboy boots, he thought it was just a harmless prank; but when Ennis shot him a baleful glare, he realized otherwise.

At the Fourth of July celebration, two loudmouthed bikers were making raunchy comments within earshot of the del Mar family.

Lureen's cold-as-snow voice slip-slid down the wire to Ennis's phone booth.

"T" is tranquilizer

Come to think, how did you manage the shot of Ennis’ elk? Was it hit with an anesthetic dart?

The elk was shot with a tranquilizer dart on an elk farm.

"U" is unshakable

While hot under the collar, Jack momentarily admits to wanting to end his unshakable connection to Ennis: 

"I wish I knew how to quit you."

"W" is woodenly

"Ennis stands as if heartshot, face gray and deep-lined"...and then he moves woodenly towards Jack, falling to his knees.

(at the lake, the part in quotes is in the screenplay, p. 83)

"A" is accommodate

Jack tried to accommodate Ennis when he was "dizzy drunk on all fours one cold hour when the moon had notched past two", by providing him with an extra blanket so he could "grab forty winks."

"B" is black-and-blue

Ennis had reflexively cold-cocked Jack as they tussled before leaving the mountain; the latter left Signal with a black-and blue mark on his face.
