Merab:
You ain't here for trouble, are you?

Ree:
No, ma'am.

Merab:
Cause one of my nephews is Buster Leroy, and didn't he shoot your daddy one time?

Ree:
Yes'm, but that ain't got nothing to do with me. They settled all that theirselves, I think.

Merab:
Shooting him likely settled it. What is it you want?

Ree:
I got a real bad need to talk with Thump.

Merab:
And he ain't got no need to talk to you.

[Merab turns away towards her doorway]

Ree:
But I need to. I really, really got to ma'am. Please!

[Merab turns around to face Ree]

Ree:
Some of our blood at least is the same. Ain't that s'posed to mean somethin' - isn't that what is always said?

Merab:
[irritated] Ain't you got no men could do this?

Ree:
No, Ma'am, I don't.
