Jack wanted to spend his money on a drink for Jimbo, hoping he'd be able to spend a little time with him.

"T" is top

EXT:  TEXAS:  SMALL TOWN ARENA:  SUMMER NIGHT:  1966:

ANNOUNCER:  "Let 'em rip and snort, boys!  This one'll be quick.  Jack Twist, hangin' on for dear life!"

JACK rides out of the chute.  Comes flyin off a Brahma bull.

ANNOUNCER (cont'd):  "Oh, and down he goes!"

Hits hard.  The bull, angry, slobbering, is right on top of him.

ANNOUNCER (cont'd):  "Whoa, watch out there, fella!  He's comin' for ya!  Send in the clowns!  A fine ride for Mr. Twist.  Four seconds for him."

"U" is unkind

That night in a happy friendly bar, Jack had another lesson in how unkind the whole world can seem to be.

"V" is vibrating

The frisson that was vibrating between Jack and Jimbo vanished just as quickly as it appeared.

"W" is wounded

After Jimbo helped to prevent Jack from being badly wounded, he rubbed salt in his remaining wounds by refusing Jack's offer of a drink, leaving Jack to lick his wounds.

"X" is xperts

Luckily for the bull riders, the rodeo clowns are xperts when it comes to distracting bulls.

The Lake Scene is characterized mostly by the sense of anguish.

Ennis felt that Jack was betraying him by having gone to Mexico.

Ennis feels his whole world come crashing down as he breaks the news to Jack that their time together has to take a back seat again.
