The Golden Girls1985

Blanche:
Hi Rose, what's going on?

Rose:
Oh I'm just sitting here kicking myself for not taking care of my gallbladder, and then for going to that hospital for the operation, and letting them give me blood without asking first 'Oh excuse me, are you sure this isn't going to KILL me one day'?

Blanche:
Now now, Rose, take it easy.

Rose:
WHY does everyone keep saying take it easy? I don't FEEL like taking it easy. I might have AIDS, and it scares the HELL out of me. And yet every time I open my mouth to talk about it somebody goes 'there there, Rose, take it easy'.

Blanche:
I'm sorry, honey.

Rose:
Why ME, Blanche? I'm tired of pretending I'm feel okay so you won't say take it easy, and I'm tired of you saying take it easy because you're afraid I'm going to fall apart. Dammit, why is this happening to ME? This isn't supposed to happen to people like ME. You must've gone to bed with HUNDREDS of men. All I had was one innocent operation.

Blanche:
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE! Are you saying this should be me and not you?

Rose:
No! No, I'm just saying that I'm a good person. Hell I'm a goody two shoes!

Blanche:
AIDS is not a BAD person's disease, Rose, it is not God punishing people for their SINS.

Rose:
[quietly] You're right, Blanche.

Blanche:
Well you're damn straight I'm right! [pause] I'm sorry I yelled.

Rose:
Oh don't apologize, I mean this is what I want, oh God this waiting is driving me crazy.
