JACK:

((grins over at Ennis, who has suddenly reappeared))

**So you like the sock puppet, huh?**

((Jack looks at the puppet again.))

**Well. Don' know if I'd call it high class, but it's some kind of entertainment, fer what its worth.**

STAND-IN ENNIS~

((finally  a line I can reply to!))

**Still page 71 from the Screenplay:**

Lureen.  You and her, it's normal and all?

JACK:

**Normal? Hell, don't know what ya call normal. She's off huntin' half the time when she ain't figgerin' numbers. 'parently she goes after big game from time ta time, knows what she wants...**

((Jack reaches into his truck and pulls out a bottle of whiskey, takes a swig.))

**And she's spoilin' our kid... which I guess a lot of mamas do, but still it's kinda odd if ya ask me. Well, if she can teack Bobby ta use a gun... may be some hope fer the boy yet.  But if Lureen'n me 'r normal, I'm guessin' that L.D. and Fayette are off the wall. L.D.'s got metal claws imbedded in his fingers and Fayette's wastin' away last I seen her... so not sure they're normal, that's fer sure.**

STAND-IN ENNIS~

%%what in Jake's name is he doing??  I can't foller this existential abstract stream-of-conscienceness jibber-jabber!!  Hell I don't even know if I can spell it!  What
do I say now??  ???  .....well I guess I gotta just stick to the script, cain't go too far wrong
with that....hmmmm....%%

**Screenplay, page 71:**

You ever get the feelin’, I don’t know,
when you’re in town, and someone looks at
you, suspicious…like he knows.  And then
you get out on the pavement, and
everyone, lookin’ at you, and maybe they
all know too?

DIRECTOR WELLIWONT~

%%This is the hardest part of this job, but I gotta do it. :-\%%

Hello-ooo, Stand-In Ennis, could I have a word with you?  It’s ok, you can step away from the stage, Daniel is in his trailer at the moment…

It’s been great having you, even though you cain’t really act worth a damn, now I’m gonna have to bump you back down to your old position as Stand-In Ennis, minus the speaking part that is….  But thanks for helping us out of this pinch we were in....

((shuffles feet uncomfortably))

We emmm, just got ourselves a new Ennis, she will be here tonight.  So, uhmmm, thanks, I guess….

%%Damn I hate doin’ this, Schamus got no right to make me do this.%%

JACK:

((Jack freshens up his makeup quickly than runs back out to the campsite. His stache was startin' ta peel off. He looks over at Ennis knowingly. His smile is a little less apparent now.))

**Don't sound like yer livin' a normal life yerself.... why don't ya get out of Dodge, head down with me ta Texas. Could prolly find ya a place easy.**

((Jack hesitates with a hopeful look on his face.))

**Wouldn't mind puttin' ya up if Lureen don't mind. She's probably off huntin' now anyways. Big game season, I reckon. She don't quite get fishin'.**

ENNIS:  . . . and maybe you'll convince Alma to let you and Lureen adopt my girls, and then we could all live together herdin' sheep, and it'll just rain money from L.D. Newsome, and whiskey'll flow in the streams and . . .  and . . . pigs'll fly!!


** Oh SHEEit, done summoned the flyin' pigs again!! **
