After Alma xcoriates him and his choice of a nasty fishing buddy, Ennis puts on his hardest exterior and heads for a bar.

Ennis' year-after-year "fishing trips" were the cause of much nastiness after Thanksgiving dinner.

Thanks for the welcome back.

"Z" is Zhivago

"'Brokeback' is not just about gays and roaming cowboys; it is an epic about the futile quest of love and the film speaks a universal language.  I hope it will be regarded as one of the greatest American romances one day –- in the same league as 'Doctor Zhivago' and 'Casablanca.'"
-- Ang Lee as quoted in East West Magazine

"A" is angels

Ennis tells his daughters that they are angels on Thanksgiving night as he tries not to be a sad Daddy to them.  Probably his last supper with them ever as kids.

After eating Thanksgiving dinner, Ennis got a bellyful of Alma's insinuations about his "fishing trips" with Jack.

Alma had been harbouring a grudge about Ennis's supposedly dastardly behaviour with Jack Nasty all these years.

The faces of Alma Jr. and Jenny are rapt when Ennis tells his short story about riding broncs in the rodeo.
