Mary:
We would, we would, uh, start doin' it, and he reached over... and he touched my baby. And I asked him, and I said "Carl, what are you doing"? And he told me to shut, to shut my fat ass up, and it was good for her.

Mrs. Weiss:
And what did you do then?

Mary:
I shut my fat ass up. And I don't want you to sit there and judge me, Miss Weiss.

Mrs. Weiss:
[Angrily] You shut up and you let him abuse your daughter.

Mary:
I didi not want him to abuse my daughter. I did not want him to hurt her.

Mrs. Weiss:
[Overlapping with Mary's voice] But you ALLOWED him to hurt her!

Mary:
I did not want him to do nothin' to her. I wanted him to make love to me. That was my man. That was my f***in' man. That was my man, and he wanted my daughter. And that's why I hated her. Because my man who was supposed to be loving me, who was supposed to be making love to me was f***ing my baby. And she made him leave. She made him go away.

Mrs. Weiss:
So whose fault was that?

Mary:
It's this b*tch's fault, because she let my man have her. And she didn't say nothin', she didn't scream, she didn't do nothin'. So, those things that she told you I did to her? Who... who... who else was going to love me? Hmmm? Since you got your degree, and you know every f***in' thing, who was gonna love me? Who... who... was gonna make me feel good? Who was gonna touch me, and make me feel good late at night? And she made him go away. So... when you sit there, and you writin' them f***in' notes on your pad about who you think I am, and why I did it and all of that... because I didn't have a man.

Mary:
Precious! PRECIOUS! PRECIOUS! Get down here, b*tch! You brought that white b*tch up in my house? You wrong to bring that b*tch up in here!

Clareece 'Precious' Jones:
I ain't bring her in here.

Mary:
Well, why the f*** did she ring my buzzer? I can't here you, Precious. Since you got so much mothaf***in' mouth and you gon' bring a b*tch up in my house... why did that b*tch ring my goddamn buzzer?

Clareece 'Precious' Jones:
I ain't tell her to come here!

Mary:
See, I think right now you think you becomin' a grown woman. 'Cause that sh*t you pulled in the kitchen... I shoulda f***ed you up. But I let you walk away. And I let you get yourself together. But, b*tch, I'mma let you know, don't you ever pull that sh*t again. That'll be your last mothaf***in' day stayin here. I promise you that. You gon' send a white b*tch to my mothaf***in' buzzer? Talkin' 'bout some higher education? You're a dummy, b*tch! You will never know sh*t! Don't nobody want you, don't nobody need you! You done f***ed around and f***ed my mothaf***in' man? And had two mothaf***in' children? And one of 'ems a goddamn animal, runnin' 'round lookin' crazy as a mothaf***a? B*tch, you know what? See, I think you... I think you tryin' me. I think you tryin' to f*** with me. You f***in' with my money... and you gon' stand up there and look at me like you a mothaf***in' woman? I'mma show you what real women do, b*tch. See, you don't know what real mothaf***in' women do. Real mothaf***in' women sacrafice! I shoulda aborter your mothaf***in' ass! 'Cause you ain't sh*t! I knew it when the doctor put you in my goddamn hand you wasn't a goddamn thing! You wear that smirk on your face, b*tch? Get outta...! [throws object at Precious] Now smile about that! Smile about that, you fat bi - [Precious kicks a shoe at Mary] I'mma kill you, b*tch! [Mary chases Precious up the stairs] F***!
