- Let's go get a beer and see who's here.

- [Giggles]

You'll like it.

It's air-conditioned.

[Engines Revving]

Looks deserted. Some of the guys

are probably out back ridin' dirt bikes, though.

Yep.

What's that?

Oh. That's just Willie.

She paints those weird things all over the place.

[Engines Revving]

- She paint this, too?

- Yeah. It's a sand paintin' with bullet holes.

- Want a cigarette?

- Yeah.

You hadn't seen

Dirty Gertie yet.

Pull her bow and she'll say hello.

I'm gonna go put on some music.

- [Yelps] She spit on me!

- [Mechanical Cackling]

[Cackling Continues]

[Cackling Continues]

- [Cackling Stops]

- [Whispers] Millie.

Millie.

Hi, Willie. This is my new roommate, Pinky.

This is Willie.

We'll have a couple of beers.

She and Edgar run this place.

They live in that house out back.

She's gonna have a baby.

##[Country]

Don't pay any attention to her.

She never says much.

Wait'll you meet Edgar.

He's really funny.

He used to be on the Wyatt Earp TV show.

He knows Hugh O'Brian.

[Thunder Rumbling]

[Rumbling Continues]

Edgar, this is my new roommate, Pinky.

Pinky, this is Edgar Hart.

- Hold it!

- [Laughs]

Never trust a dishonest man, my dear.

He was Hugh O'Brian's stand-in

on Wyatt Earp.

Stunt double. I did all

of Hugh's stunts for him.

- What'd you say your name was? Pinky?

- Yeah. That's my nickname.

My real name's Mildred,

but I hate it. [Laughs]

[Chuckles] Well, you, uh

You kind oflook like a Pinky to me.

Freeze! Rattlesnake.

[Grunts, Yells]

You'll be safe now, ladies.

[Pinky]

I thought that was a real rock.

- [Millie] No. Edgar's always playin'jokes on me like that.

- [Grunts]

- How come you didn't tell me your name was Mildred?

- 'Cause I hate it.

- Well, what do you think my name is?

- Millie.

- Ohh.

- Oh, yeah.

[Engine Starts]

#Ain't never gonna stop #

#I'm gonna drink

until I drop #

- Jesus Christ. Beautiful.

- #I'm gonna drink until I drop #

#I'm gonna drink #

# Until #

#I drop #

# Yeah ##

Sure does remind me of Texas.

Doesn't it you?

- I don't like Texas anymore. But I like it here.

- Me, too.

- Your folks still live in Texas?

- I don't have any folks.

Couple of aunts and uncles is all.

My mother was sick.

Couldn't keep me.

[Brakes Squeak]

[Softly]

"Purple Sage Apartments."

This is my parkin' space.

It's the best one.

Get your stuff out.

You sure don't have

very many things.

I left most of my stuff with the family

I've been livin' with.

It was old stuff anyway.

[Gasps] Oh.

This is our mailbox.

You should get yourself a little tag

and put it on here so you can get your mail.

Uck. Ugly underwear.

Oh, good. Neiman Marcus.

Another contest.

Baby stuff. I don't need that.

Millie.

Oh, yeah. Willie did that a long time ago.

She and Edgar own this place.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Oh, hi, Tom.

How's your cold?

[Coughs]

Oh, Millie.

Ohh.

Ya like it?

I love it.

It's so beautiful.

Look at that big kitchen.

I don't believe it.

This little stove. Oh.

[Sighs, Chuckles]

[Sighs]

It's perfect.

I decorated

most of it myself.

- Who was that guy out there?

- I told ya about Edgar.

No, no. That cute guy.

- Oh, you mean Tom.

- Yeah.

- Is Is he your boyfriend? He is, isn't he?

- He'd like to be.

He's always askin' me out

and everything...

but I'm not gonna go out with him

until he gets over that cold.

- Wanna go see the bedroom?

- Yeah.

This is our bedroom.

- Oh, it's so beautiful.

- And this is my closet. And that's your closet.

Oh, it's so big.

- And this is our desk.

- [Gasps] Mmm.

- [Chuckles Softly]

- And that's my bed, and that's your bed.

This is my bed. Oh, Millie.

I love it.

I couldn't have imagined it

being more perfect.

Thanks.

- You know what?

- What?

You're the most perfect person

I ever met.

Thanks.

I don't know if

I'm ever gonna have a kid.

Just depends on the guy,

I think.

It's gonna have to be someone

I really wanna have 'em by, though.

Like when I was born,

it was just an accident.

Mother and Dad were married and everything,

but... they weren't ready to have a kid.

I don't blame 'em.

It wasn't their fault.

Things were different then.

It's a lot easier

to make a mistake.

And then where are you?

Nowhere, that's where.

I plan everything I do.

I figure out what it is I want,

and then I set out to do it.

Like this apartment.

I've been decoratin'it ever since I moved in.

And even if I fell in love with a guy

and wanted to get married...

I wouldn't move into his place.

He'd have to move in with me.

And even then I'd wanna know everything

there is to know about him.

Includin'money and health.

Bathroom's empty now.

You can have it.

Okay.

- What's that you're wearin'?

- My coat.

- Don't you have a bathrobe?

- Not yet.

- Can you sew?

- Mm-hmm.

- Okay, you can have this if you can fix it.

- Thanks, Millie.

Yeah.

I'm makin'us

some tuna melts for dinner.

They're real easy and they only take

about 15 minutes to make.

I'll tell ya how so you can make 'em yourself

in case I'm out on a date or somethin'.

First you open all the cans andjars

so you'll have 'em ready when you go to mix 'em.

Then you drain a can of tuna,

and you dump it into a big mixin'bowl.

Now ya add a tablespoon full

of mayonnaise...

and some salt and pepper,

and ya taste it to make sure it's okay.

It's okay.

Pretty.

Next ya dice up, not chop up,

some onions and some celery...

and ya mix 'em in

real even so that...

you don't get a big bite of onion

or somethin' when you're eatin' it.

If you don't have

any onions or any celery...

you can just use some dehydrated onions

or some celery salt.

That's what I'm doin'.

We didn't have any onions.

- How'd ya like it?

- Mmm. It's great.

- It's a lot better with real onions on it.

- I can't tell the difference.

- You know what I like best about it, though?

- What?

- You didn't put any tomatoes in it.

- Tomatoes?

I hate tomatoes. Even when I have spaghetti

I don't put tomato sauce on it.

- I just use that other white stuff.

- You don't like tomatoes?

- [Gags, Laughs]

- Me either.

- They call 'em love apples, but I don't love 'em.

- I don't either.

- You take the pill?

- Pi The pill.

- Well, sometimes.

- Me, too.

But you can get

a bad reaction from it...
