Thanksgiving at Monroe's was going just dandy until Alma and Ennis met up for a chat in the kitchen.

In the Riverton supermarket.

Ennis:  "Hey, Monroe."
Monroe:  "Hey, En."
Ennis:  "Is Alma here?"
Monroe:  "Oh yes, she's in the condiments aisle."
Ennis:  "The what?"
Monroe:  "Ketchup."   [movie]

"F" is fighting

"Ennis, high-arched nose and narrow face, was scruffy and a little cave-chested, balanced a small torso on long, caliper legs, possessed a muscular and supple body made for the horse and for fighting."  [story]

When Alma asked Ennis if he still went fishing with Jack Twist, she was guessing that he did.  Then she let him have it.

"H" is highfalutin
« Reply #8624 on: November 16, 2006, 04:11:27 pm »
The Monroe family was more highfalutin than the Del Mar family, but the Twist family of Texas was the most highfalutin of all at Thanksgiving.

It will be a cold day in Riverton before the Monroe family invites En back for a meal.

"J" is jazzier

The color of the Twists' dining room chairs was jazzier than anything in Monroe's house.

"L" is leaving

Ennis found that Thanksgiving dinner at the Monroes' was leaving a very bad taste in his mouth, not knowing he would have a worse taste in his mouth later that night.

Ennis managed to get Alma all riled up when he responded "once burned" to her comment about getting remarried.

We've managed to get a lot of mileage out of this scene!
