Lordsy, Miss Scarlett! That's Mr. Gerald's watch! |
| SCARL |
You take it. It's for you. Pa'd want you to have it. |
| PORK |
You ain't got no business parting from this watch now, Miss Scarlett! You
needs all your valuables to sell for that tax money! |
| SCARL |
Do you think I'd sell Pa's watch? And don't cry. I can stand everybody's
tears but yours.
Oh, Mammy! Mammy! |
| MAMMY |
You been brave so long, Miss Scarlett, you just go to go on being brave.
Think about your Pa like he used to be. |
| SCARL |
I can't think about Pa.
I can't think of anything but that three hundred dollars! |
| MAMMY |
Ain't no good thinking about that, Miss Scarlett. Ain't nobody got that
much money. Nobody but Yankees and scalawags got that much money now. |
| SCARL |
Rhett! |
| MAMMY |
Who that? A Yankee? |
| SCARL |
Oh, oh, Mammy, I'm so-so thin and pale and-I haven't any clothes! Scoot
up the attic, Mammy, and get down Ma's old box of dress patterns. |
| MAMMY |
What you up to with Miss Ellen's portieres? |
| SCARL |
You're going to make me a new dress. |
| MAMMY |
Not with Miss Ellen's portieres! Not while I got breath in my body! |
| SCARL |
Great balls of fire! They's my portieres now! I'm going to Atlanta for
that three hundred dollars, and I've got to go looking like a queen, |
| MAMMY |
Who going to Atlanta with you? |
| SCARL |
I'm going alone. |
| MAMMY |
That's what you think. I's going to Atlanta with you-with you and that
new dress! |
| SCARL |
Now,Mammy, darling. |
MAMMY
|
No use to try to sweet-talk me, Miss Scarlett. I know'd you ever since
I put the first pair of diapers on you. I said I's going to Atlanta with
you, and going I is! |
