She is right,

Tell me the name of

the second lawyer.

Tell me the name of

the second layer!

No.

Please, Jesus,

f***ing, Christ.

Proceed with the burning.

No, no, wait, wait, wait!

I still have more lines.

That alone, Mrs. Oates,

is sufficient motivation

to proceed.

Mr. Cauchon, your line please.

By the authority of the holy

church, I condemn thee to death

by burning Joan maid of Orleans.

May the devil receive thy soul.

Oh God, oh God,

this is not happening.

This is just not happening!

Myron, goddamn you.

Whatever.

Pretty girl, not hurt.

Otis.

Not hurt.

Pretty girl, no burn.

House burn!

[ Noise ]

Myron,

[inaudible] your

parties like that.

You and [inaudible].

Or what big brain,

you like to thank me?

Yeah, you would, huh?

Big brain, you want to thank me?

Not if you've been

on roller coaster.

Oh, no.

'Cause I am sure

artistic connoisseur

such as yourself will

rather appreciate it.

[ Noise ]

Yup, thanks for

[Inaudible] Myron.

Lorretta!

Lorretta! Lorretta!

[Screaming]

Howard?

Lance? Lance Bogen.

What the heck is

going on around here?

Beats the royal

sh*t out on me, Howard.

I got to go.

Yeah, okay.

See you around.

Lance. Lance.

Save me Lance.

Please, help me.

Oh, Lance is coming.

And don't be playing

hard to get.

[ Noise ]

House burned.

Wasn't that just

great, isn't that perfect.

No Howard, now, no Lance.

Not that I would

have taken him back.

Of course, he did have

ambition, I'll give him that.

Now, what's a girl to do?

Pretty girl.

Yeah, well.

Thanks for everything, Otis.

I'll be seeing you around.

Otis, pretty girl.

Yeah, yeah, you

Tarzan, me, Jane.

I'm sure we just

make a swell couple.

You,

Otis Stackpool, me,

Lorretta Stackpool, you only

survived in the Stackpool heir,

me, controls Stackpool money.

Pretty Lorretta.

Otis, there comes a time

in a girl's life for a romance

and a time for practicality.

Do you understand

what I'm saying?

Uh--

Oh, that's okay honey.

Don't you worry none, your

little sweetie Lorretta is going

to take care of everything.

Do you, Lorretta

Koslowsky Oates take this man

to be your lawfully

wedded husband?

I do.

And do you, Otis

Stackpool, take this woman

to be your lawfully wedded wife?

Otis, say I do.

I, oh--

Yes. Well,

I now pronounce you man

and wife.

You may kiss the bride.

Oh, we'll skip that

part, thanks anyway.

There now Otis, we're married.

Married?

That's right.

It's going to be

you and me together.

I'm going to take

good care of you.

I'm going to be real sweet.

Sweet.

That's right.

So you see it all

worked out in the end.

Don't you just love

a happy ending?
