Visitor's center
Karen:
I saw her, Henry.
Henry:
What are you talking about?
Karen:
I saw her name in the register.
Henry:
Jesus Christ.
Karen:
You want her to visit you? Let her stay up all night, crying and writing letters to the parole board.
Henry:
What am I doing here? Where am I? I'm in jail. I can't stop people from coming to see me.
Karen:
Good. Let her sneak this stuff every week. [Karen dangles a bag of illegal drugs in front him] Let her fight these bastards every week!
Henry:
Look what you're doing! Stop it!
Karen:
I'm sorry. Let her sneak this sh*t in for you.
Henry:
Will you stop it, Karen? Will you stop it?
Karen:
Let her do it! Let her do it!
Henry:
STOP IT!!!
[Kids react to anger; Karen starts to sob]
Karen:
Nobody is helping me. I am all alone. Belle and Morrie are broke. I asked your friend Remo for the money that he owes you, and you know what he told me? He told me to take my kids down to the police station and get on welfare.
Henry:
Karen, It's going to be okay.
Karen:
Yeah? Even Paulie, since he got out, I've never seen him. I never see anybody anymore.
Henry:
It's only you and me. That's what happens when you go away. I told you that we're on our own. Forget everybody else. Forget Paulie. As long as he's on parole, he doesn't want anybody doing anything.
Karen:
I can't do it.
Henry:
Yes, you can. Karen, Listen to me. All I need is for you to bring me this stuff. I got a guy in here from Pittsburgh who'll help me move it. Believe me, in a month we're gonna be fine. We won't need anybody.
Karen:
I'm afraid. I'm afraid if Paulie finds out...
Henry:
Or I just say, Don't worry about him. He is not helping us out. Is he putting any food on the table? We've gotta help each other. We've just gotta-- Listen, We've gotta be really careful while we do it.
Karen:
I don't want to hear a word about her anymore, Henry.
Henry:
Never.
