Thelma:
[Willona opens the back of Penny's dress, revealing her back's covered in bruises] Oh no!

Willona:
Wha - what happened?

Penny:
[turning around quickly] Uh, I fell, I always fall, my feet are all thumbs.

Willona:
Baby, come here. Now I know you like to make up stories, but I need you to tell me the truth. Who gave you those bruises? Baby, who did those awful things to you?

Lenella Gordon:
[enters and sees Penny's dress open] What's going on?

Penny:
[turns around] I didn't tell them a thing, momma, honest I didn't.

[goes to her mother]

Lenella Gordon:
[hastily ties up Penny's dress and trying to act innocent] What would you have to tell them, sweetheart?
