**Fine, go up on Brokeback and straighten out the snow, it looks rough in places.**

NEW ACTOR PLAYING ENNIS:  Uh...  Is there some reason why there're no beans at the crafts table?  My contract specifically stipulates that there must be a supply of Grandma Brown's Baked Beans shipped directly from Rochester, NY, (please see below) on hand and readily available at all times.  I need them to get into character.  Anyone listening?  I can't work like this!

No more beans!

Ennis



Jack, I got something t’ tell you. Thought it would be a cold day in hell when I said these words out loud but well, come t’ find out it IS a cold day in hell.  ((Takes a deep breath.)) Jack, what if you ‘n me took a chance on that sweet life together you was talkin' about ‘n start us our own little calf ‘n cow operation.

((Takes another deep breath and looks straight into those trusting sky-blue eyes.))

I love you Jack Fuckin’ Twist.

JACK:

((completely flabbergasted by Ennis's sudden and very pronounced interest in him and his rapidly increasing emotional availability, Jack has been grinning nonstop since arriving at Ennis's place. He wasn't expecting this at all.))

((Jack mutters something under his breath:))

**Guess that makes two of us.**



JACK:

((Jack looks away for a moment, tears stinging his eyes... He blinks a few times.))

**What the hell is that supposed ta mean, Ennis?! You love me?!?! After all this effin' time, when you had all those chances to say something, do something to really show it, and now you think you can just get by with a coupla words.
Well I'll tell ya sumthin, boy. It don't work that way. After everything we been through, and all you can say is 'I love you' like that's supposed to fix everything. That ain't gonna cut it.**


((Jack turns away back toward his truck for a minute, barely able to sustain his own tears. He turns back, as though he's about to change his mind, then turns back around and gets in the truck, starts the ignition, and pulls out faster than he pulled in.))
