Until Alma jr. and Jenny reach the age of 18 years, Alma is an obligee of Ennis - for child support.

"P" is punches

Alma didn't pull any punches when she brought up Ennis' "fishing trips" at Thanksgiving and after the truck driver threw a few punches at him, Ennis felt like a punching bag. It certainly was a day full of punches.

I see you are still packing a punch with your clever and witty posts. It's good to be back.

"Q" is quick-spoken

A quick-spoken "what’re you doin’?" by Ennis is the single line of dialogue during Ang Lee’s version of Tent Scene 1.  Jack’s "gun’s goin’ off" was not included.

Ennis and Alma both have a hard time dealing with the rage of their failed marriage.

Welcome back, I hope you aren't too punchy, today.

Ennis had a sinking feeling standing next to the kitchen sink when Alma brought up the subject of his "fishing trips" with Jack Twist.

Alma was trying to start a conversation with Ennis when she said:  "You ought to get married again, Ennis.  Me and the girls worry 'bout you bein' alone so much."

"U" is unforgotten

Ennis came to realize how unforgotten the past can be.  Every little fish, every little kiss can come back and haunt you.

At Thanksgiving Ennis "tries to be cheerful for his girls, not wanting to be a sad daddy."  [screenplay]
