00:49:51,643 --> 00:49:53,611
and I'd have been
screaming, calling 911.

1027
00:49:53,645 --> 00:49:57,373
At my age,
a knock after dark
is a dream come true.

1028
00:49:57,408 --> 00:50:01,239
When I saw my nephew's face,
it was a major letdown.

TRUVY: I think it's awful
of Drew to throw his son
out of the house.

00:50:03,793 --> 00:50:05,554
My brother
can be a hothead.

1031
00:50:05,588 --> 00:50:09,247
And you know Marshall,
he marches in from
New York, unexpected,

1032
00:50:09,282 --> 00:50:11,387
without so much as a hello.

1033
00:50:11,422 --> 00:50:16,910
"Mama, Daddy, they found
a tumor in my brain.
I have six weeks to live."

1034
00:50:16,944 --> 00:50:19,740
Naturally, they
were hysterical. TRUVY: Naturally.

1035
00:50:19,775 --> 00:50:22,260
And then he says,
"Calm down,
I'm just joking.

"The real news is,
I'm gay."

[ALL CHUCKLING]

TRUVY: But that's
a relief, isn't it?

1039
00:50:28,301 --> 00:50:30,096
It apparently was not.

1040
00:50:30,130 --> 00:50:33,789
Drew got to carrying on,
throwing wet shrimp.
[CHUCKLING]

1041
00:50:33,823 --> 00:50:35,618
I adore Marshall.

half the night talking.

Oh, wow.

didn't I?

Yes, you know,
you did a beautiful job.
It's just...

Come here, baby.

00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:55,983
It's perfect.

1049

It's gonna look
so cute when it's wet.
It's gonna curl right up.

mine like that.

put him down
for his nap for me?

he's tired.

I would love a manicure

have one, too. Oh!

I don't need one. Yes, you do.

00:51:51,177 --> 00:51:55,008
Well, maybe I'll add a sauna
and call this place a spa.

please fill the tub
for a pedicure?

Maybe she was praying
for Drew and Marshall.

Maybe she was praying for us
because we're gossiping.

Maybe she was praying
'cause her panties
are too tight.

at the drop of a hat.

Since when? CLAIREE: Since Mardi Gras.

She had a choice of going
for a Bible weekend with
her Sunday school class,

or going to New Orleans with
me and two other sinners. Mmm-hmm.

She left that Friday
a pleasant,

to scratch his watch
or wind his butt. [ALL LAUGHING]

He says he can
compete with a suitor,

fight off the Father,

find one, Ouiser.

Are you high?

Clairee, have you
lost your mind?

01:24:36,312 --> 01:24:38,970
We could sell t-shirts
saying, "I slapped
Ouiser Boudreaux."

You missed the chance

I'll admit, I'll admit.
I laughed.

But Miss Clairee,
that wasn't a very
Christian thing to do.

Annelle, honey,
you're gonna
have to lighten up.

the same thing.

too heavy in here,

I love you more than
I love my luggage.
