When the sun does come up high

Then that day someone will die.

Then that day someone will die.

When the sun does come up high

Then that day someone will die.

Julio!

Julio!

Hi, Caesar said I should stop.
That you looked half baked.

About medium rare.

- Where are you going?
- Wherever you are.

If, uh, Caesar, said you
should give me a lift too.

That's exactly what she said.

I'm Mickey Terry.

- I'm Symcha Lipa.
- I beg your pardon?

Symcha Lipa.

- I am from Hungary.
- Really?

Hey, I've never met anyone from
Hungary before, that's great.

- Do you...
- Fine. Just call me Sym, huh?

Okay Sym. Hop in.

How far are you going?

It's a little further on
the main road and

then I turn offfor Jerome.

Jerome, that is a town?

That is a corpse.

That is a pile of dead dreams.

We run a filling station there.

- We?
- My family.

My mother and 2 sisters.

Oh, that is rough work
for women, is it not?

- It's a living.
- Dangerous too.

I mean out in this
part of the country,

the chance of robbery and all.

We can take care of ourselves.

Anyway, there's not much
around here except the past.

And the past can't hurt you.

At times the past can
be your worst enemy.

What is wrong?

Among other things it
needs a new water pump.

I've got to get some water.

This used to be the most
elegant hotel in the state.

What happened?

Well, everyone went broke, I guess.

Oh?

Oh!

I'm not going to be able to put
water in that until it cools off

Hey, I'm sorry you have to wait.

- Patience bears roses.
- What?

Patience bears roses.

Oh.

I think that's cooled off
enough to put the water in it.

The well is over that way.

I think one bucket will do.

Mickey!

Mickey?

Mickey.

Mickey.

Is the water okay?

Y es, the water is okay.

Good.

It's the end of the line.

You like animals?

They attract tourists.

Anyone's, uh, poisoning?

- Carl is, he's a rattler.
- Carl?

My sister, Nan, takes care of
them and she gave them all names

What is in there?

That's Nan's favorite pet.

Meet Reginald.

A tarantula for a pet?

Oh, he can even do tricks.

No thanks, I will stick
to dogs and cats.

Well, uh, thanks
for the lift Mickey.

Sym, there's no
place to stay in town.

Where do the tourists stay?

They don't.
They come and they go.

Mickey, about time you got back.

Who's this?

This is a friend of mine, Sym...

- Symcha Lipa.
- My sister, Diz.

How do you do?
I am pleased to meet you.

Well?

Sym's a Hungarian and
he's out seeing the country

and I thought it would be great
if I could show him Jarome.

I thought maybe he
could spend the night.

Spend the night?

Well, why not?

Come on, Mickey, you
know better than that.

Uh, truely, I do not want
to cause any trouble.

Please, Sym. Where's Mother?

She had to go pick up Nan, she's
been expelled from school again.

They said she set a cat on fire.

- Your sister set a cat on fire?
- Oh, I doubt it.

Look, wouldn't you
like to take a shower

and wash some of
that road dirt off?

No, no, I think I had better go.

- So do l.
- Well I don't!

Come on, why give up a shower,

and a hot meal and a
roof over your head?

All right, thank you.

Which way to the shower?

It's right around back.

Well, you had to do
it again, didn't you?

First that Lamberto guy
and now this one.

Don't Diz.

Listen, I don't care how many
guys you mess around with

just stop bringing
them around here.

- Please, Diz!
- Remember Julio Lamberto?

I warned you about him, didn't l?

He said he was going to
marry you and off he ran.

- We did love each other.
- Oh yeah!

Then where is he now?

He's in bed with some other fool

telling her they're
going to get married.

- You have a sick mind.
- No, I have a sick sister.

Why do you have to be so mean?

You remember when father left us?

We promised we'd
never talk about that.

I didn't.

Well, they've expelled
her for good, this time.

They recommend psychiatric aid.

Can you imagine?
I should sue them.

I mean defamation of character
or something like that.

- Mother, l...
- It scratched me.

Well, I had to get even.

It won't ever scratch me again.

They said little boys were
teasing her with the cat.

Then you did set a cat on fire.

Of course not.

They said she killed the animal

and threw the little boy
down a flight of stairs.

Now that's ridiculous.

You know how Nan adores pets.

Nan go inside and wash that
scratch and then start dinner.

- I'll be in a moment.
- Y es, Mother.

Oh that poor child.

They blame her for everything
that happens at that school.

- Mother...
- Mickey has something she

- wants to tell you.
- Oh.

You're in a great mood
today, aren't you?

Oh now girls, no more
fighting, please.

Can't we have a little bit
of love? Just a little bit?

Mickey loves everyone. She
has enough love for all of us.

Well he's not going
to sleep in the house.

He can sleep on the old
army cot in the garage.

You sure that's all he's
going to sleep on?

- Oh shut up, Diz.
- Diz!

Go inside and help your sister.

Yes, Mom.

Now what is this talk about
the army cot in the garage?

- There's this friend of mine...
- Oh, I bought some groceries

in Clarksdale, would you get
them out of the car for me dear?

Y es, Mother.

I think I'll go inside and wash
away some of my grease.

- Aah!
- Oh no!

There's a man in the shower!

- I know Mother. I...
- Get him out!

- Get him out of there!
- Oh!

That was a fine
meal, Mrs. Terry.

I guess you were really surprised

when you looked in the shower
and there I was, huh?

Surprised is hardly the word.
Shocked is a better one.

- Sickened maybe.
- I like shocked.

Y es, I think Mother
was really shocked

when she saw you in
the shower there, Sym.

Gracious when I saw
you standing there

I thought you were Julio Lamberto.

Who?

Well, let's finish our
tea in the living room.

You be nice girls
and clear the table.

We are nice girls, Mother.

Oh please, I'd rather
you didn't touch that.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Well it's just that it has
great sentimental value.

I wouldn't want anything
to happen to it.

Come on, Sym, sit down.

Just put those things anyplace.

They are old Halloween costumes.

Nan's birthday is
the first of October.

So we celebrate on Halloween.

Y es, it makes her really happy.

It's a fine idea.

Oh, don't let me forget, Mickey,
I must do some repairs on those.

We've all grown a
little bit since last year.

We've been wearing the same
costumes for years and years.

- Oh really?
- Really.

Would you like the grand
exotic tour of Jerome?

Well fine, fine.

I'll get my sweater.

Dishes are cleared Mother.

I know what you're thinking Diz.

Well I don't have
to say it then, do l?

No, thinking it is bad enough.

How do you like
American girls, Mr. Lipa?

Please, call me Sym.

Anything you say, Mr. Lipa.

Don't wait up.

Goodnight, everyone.

- Don't be to late dear.
- I won't.

Diz, really!

When the sun does come up high

Then that day someone will die.

Then that day someone will die.

What a beautiful night.

Am I safe out here
alone with you Sym?

You want to be?

I've heard how dangerous
you Europeans are.

Dangerous, in what way?

You are notoriously great lovers.

What is dangerous about
being a great lover?

Ah, a town without people is
a strange thing to see, huh?

You've must have been all over.

Have you ever been
to San Francisco?

Once. And you?

I haven't been anywhere
in the past 10 years

but Clarksdale, Prescott, and here.

But I've must of read about 100
articles about San Francisco.

And I'm going to go there
one day and leave this behind.

What about your Mother and sisters?

What about them?

Well you seem like a close family.

We are a close family.

Don't, please.

- Hi, Mickey.
- Hi.

I'm going to have a beer.
What do you want?

- Oh, beer's fine.
- John, 2 beers.

Do you have any
brothers or sisters?

- Not anymore. No.
- What happened?

All my family, the er...

the girl I was going to marry,

they were all killed
in the revolution.

I'm sorry.

When someone you love dies...

The first thing you want to
forget is how they died.

You must never
remember them in death.

Only how they were when
they were vital in the life.

Mickey, the revolution
was a terrible thing.

A nightmare.

And if I am to remain sane
I must not dwell on it.

I didn't mean to
bring up anything...

I know. I know you did not.

I've seen things
I'd rather forget too.

- Horrible things.
- What things?

Let's not talk about it.

We can't forget the past
whether it's good or bad

so you might as well
try and live with it.

- T o us, hm?
- Okay.

Please, let's go.

Those people down there are dead.

They just stopped living
and seem to only exist.

- Mickey...
- I don't ever

want to be like that.

Do not be to disappointed
when you realize

that life can never be as
wonderful as you want it to be.

I think you have the
wrong idea about me.

To me it is the right idea.

We'd better go back to the station.

Do not be ashamed.
Living in a house full of women,

of course you hunt for a
man so you can be a woman.

I'm sorry, but you're wrong.

Then why did you pick me up?

Practically begging me to
spend the night with you.

I picked you up because
you looked like

a dried up old prune
sitting there by the road.

And I figured you maybe
needed a shower and a meal

and I thought l'd ask you to stay

and maybe work for room and board.

That's why I picked you up.

- Job?
- People do work, you know.

Admit it, all you want
is a long term affair.

Now we are going
back to the filling station

and I'm going to try to make life

as wonderful as
you think it can be.

Mickey.

Mickey!

I just wanted to be friends.

Give Nan a big kiss and
show her that you love her.

Goodnight, Reginald.

- Nan.
- Hi, Sym.

I was just saying
goodnight to Reginald.

Would you like to say
goodnight to him too?

I would rather not,
if you don't mind.

Get out of here! Get!

Get away! Get! Get!

Poor Reginald, don't be afraid.

Everything's going to be all right.

Don't be afraid.

There.

Goodnight, Reginald.

Goodnight, Sym.

Goodnight.

Hey, hey, hey, come here.

You tell everybody
goodbye for me, huh?

Aaaaah!

Will it be okay to talk to him?

Yeah, he's out of danger now.

He'll be as good as new in a week.

Most likely some damn
tourist ran him down.

You're the doctor.
You fixed him up.

I'm the Chief of Police, I'll
find out what happened to him.

You're sure he's okay?

Yeah, he's fine.
You remember Georgia Harrington?

When she fell down
two flights of stairs

over at Joe's Cocktail
Lounge last year.

Well, she had a few bruises
and a bump on the head.

That's the best place to
get hit is on the head.

But Georgia Harrington died.

Oh, that's right.
Well that's what I said.

It can be a dangerous
thing to get hit on the head.

I'll see you at the
party tonight, Fred.

Sure hope I stay healthy.

What happened?

Well that's what I want to know.

The doc says you ought
to be able to talk now, Syn...

How the hell do you
pronounce your name?

Symcha Lipa.

Foreigner, huh?

- Who are you?
- Fred Kendall's, the name.

I'm the Chief of Police
here in Clarkdale.

- How did I get here?
- A couple of tourists.

Found you 3 days ago
with your head busted in.

Three days ago?

That's right and you've
been out ever since.

Now what I want to know
is what happened?

- Happened?
- That's right, happened.

Something sure did to
lay you up this way.

Well I was just leaving
the Terry Filling Station.

You mean the place those
4 women run up in Jarome?

Mickey Terry, one of
Mrs. Terry's daughters,

gave me a ride to the station.

Then they invited me to stay
for dinner and spend the night.

Go on, what happened then?

Well, I got up early the next
morning. I started to leave...

I did not get to far, uh,
a car ran over me.

Can you describe the vehicle
or what the driver looked like?

No, it happened so fast,
I can't remember.

This area around here has been
dying for quite sometime now.

Mostly attracting tourists lately.

They're a pain in the ass
but at least they're harmless.

The other people seem to
be divided into 2 groups.

Those running away from something

or those staying away
from something.

- So?
- So,

I'm just trying to tell you
about that Terry bunch.

Like what?

Well, Nan Terry's been kicked
out of every school in the area.

There's been 3 charges
filed against her for assault

with attempt to commit bodily
harm on children her own age.

There come near being a
attempted murder charge

against Diz Terry up in Prescott.

- Why?
- Oh, she was in a restaurant

up there. A guy got fresh
with her and she left.

A while later he came out
and started across the street,

she tried to run him
down with her car.

What are you trying to say?

Just what you think
I'm trying to say.

You mean that, one of
the Terry's tried to kill me?

Now you said that, I didn't.

Who... What reason there to be?

Everybody whose had
anything to do with them

has wound up in trouble.

Now, you take Julio Lamberto.

Oh, you know about him.

No, no, I just heard his
name mentioned once.

Who was he?

Mickey was engaged to him.

And what happened?

Just about the time
they're going to get

married Julio disappeared.

I knew him. You'd never
want to meet a nicer fellow.

What happened to him?

You r guess is as good as mine.

I've got my suspicions but
I just can't prove anything.

Now a little friendly advise.

When you get out of this hospital,

you go the opposite way from Jerome

and that Terry Filling Station.

You know what I mean?

- Well thanks for the lift.
- You're welcome.

Diz.

It is me, Sym.

Why did you run away
from me when I called you?

You're the one who ran away.

Week and a half ago.

Didn't even say goodbye.

What happened to your head?

While I was walking down
the bridge out of Jerome

someone ran over me.

- That's terrible.
- Y es, it was terrible.

Especially for me.
Where is your Mother and sister?

They went to Prescott to...

Why you looking at me like that?

Like what?

You're looking for some
kind of trouble, what is it?

Someone was driving
the car that hit me.

I...

I certainly hope you...

don't think it was me.

I do not know who it was.

Is that why you came
back here to find out?

No, I want to see Mickey again.

You're a fool.

Sym...

I want to tell you something.

Something that...

no one outside my family
has ever known.

But first I want you to promise

it's never going to go
beyond the two of us.

I promise.

I was 12 years old.

Mickey was 5.

Nan was only 3.

It was Mickey who first heard
Mother and Father arguing.

She woke us up. We crept
down the stairway to watch.

Father was a bad tempered artist.

But he'd never beaten
Mother that way before.

He ripped off all her clothes.

And then he hit her.

And he kept hitting her
until she fell to the floor.

I thought she was unconscious.

Then he went to the fireplace

picked up a poker,
started to heat it.

I guess he was going to burn her.

Somehow Mother got to her feet.

And she picked up the
Venus de Milo and she hit Father

She knocked him out.

But she kept right on hitting him.

Nine times.

She hit him nine times.

Beat his head to a pulp.

She looked up and she
saw us on the stairway.

At first I thought she
was going to kill us too.

Then her expression changed.

After she sent Mickey
and Nan to bed,

I helped her carry Father
out of the house.

We dragged him over
to the incinerator

Then Mother sent me to my room.

I held my hands over my ears
for what seemed like hours.

But I couldn't shut out
the sound of the axe.

And the crackle of the fire.

All night long it seemed.

Later Mother burnt
all his paintings.

Anything, everything
that pertained to him.

The only thing she kept was
the Venus de Milo statue.

I... I cannot believe
your Mother...

No.

After Father's death we made a
down payment on the business.

This place, here?

It's not much, we survive.

Mother hoped that
in new surroundings

we'd forget what
happened that night.

But we never have
and we never will.

Sym, l...

I don't resent you, l...

There's always been
something strange

in our family.

And with Mickey, it's
come out the worst of all.

What about Mickey?

Someone in town must have
told you about her by now.

What do you mean?

Mickey's a cheap lay for any
man passing through wants her.

Oh, I suppose you're
fooled by her cool attitude.

Just makes men want
her more, doesn't it?

It's all a game to her.

Please be careful.

She's dangerous in other ways too.

What ways?

The night that you
were staying here, l...

I happened to be
looking out the window

and I saw Mickey walk
to the rattlesnake cage

take out a snake, put it in a bag

and walk into the garage with it.

I do not believe you.

You've got to believe me.

For all our sakes you've
got to believe me and leave.

- Do you love Mickey?
- That is none of your business.

Please...

If you do love her...

If you do, you've got to
leave for her own good.

Otherwise she's only
going to destroy you.

Just the way she
destroyed the others.

Please take me.

Please have me instead of Mickey.

Promise, promise to leave
without seeing her.

No, this is wrong.

I came back to see Mickey.

Fool!

You Damn fool.
She's going to kill you.

Just like she killed
Julio Lamberto.

He wouldn't listen either.

Why Sym, it's so nice
to see you again.

Certainly is, where have you been?

Well I did not want to disturb
you the morning I left.

Then on the bridge down
here I had an accident.

You did!

- Someone ran over me.
- They did!

As it turns out it was not
to serious, thanks God.

It wasn't!

Oh Nan can't you go someplace
and find something to do.

I'm going to play my
new record for Sym.

I'm glad it wasn't serious.

So am l. It must have
been awful for you.

Well I was wondering Mrs. Terry,

could you use some
help around here?

I would work for room and board.

Well...

Mother you know we need the help.

- Well, we could.
- It's all settled then.

Now Mickey.

Oh that child. Excuse me, Sym.

Nan Terry!

I'm glad you came back.

What made you change your mind?

Well, that morning I was
getting ready to go away, l...

I felt like I was leaving
something behind.

Oh?

Then in the hospital l...

I could not get it out of my mind.

What?

You, Mickey. I could not
get you out of my mind.

You mean, you don't think I'm just

hunting a man to make me a woman?

This is going to be the
best party Nan ever had.

Come and stand out in the light

You'll find me waiting for you

And you'll scream...

Allright, it's allright

In the darkness you
think you can hide

You can run away I know I've tried

So don't be afraid
the shadows you see

Just reach out hand
the shadow is me

It's me...

So step out off the shadows

Come and stand out in the light

You'll find me waiting for you

And you'll scream...

- Allright, it's allright
- Come on,

otherwise she'll show off all day.

It's allright

It's allright

This place gives me
a very strange feeling.

Don't be silly,
it's beautiful here.

Look at that sky!

When you came back

I knew that you loved me
as much as I loved you.

- Love is many things.
- Like what?

Loneliness, lust, beauty.

Love is love.

If you don't accept it for
what it is you destroy it.

Still the words of
a very young girl.

Damn you!

You came back because you love me.

Say it, Sym.

No, I came back because I want you.

I want you.

I want to be yours.

Sym, when you leave
Jarome, I'm going with you.

Your skin is so soft and warm.

Sym...

After we leave here, we'll
go to San Francisco and...

and we'll see the Golden Gate
Bridge and cable cars.

You'll show me everything,
won't you?

Easy Mickey, you're
going at it to fast.

No, I'm not.

Then you ask the impossible,
you know that.

Don't hurt me Sym.

If you get hurt, it could
be your own fault.

What are you waiting for?

If you don't love me, why don't
you just take what you want?

You're the first girl who ever
invited me to rape her.

You're dreaming about
a trip to San Francisco.

But actually you're
just looking for an

opportunity to get away from here.

How can you say that?

Diz told me.

What? What did Diz tell you?

Among other things that
you killed Julio Lamberto.

And you believed her.

If I did would I still be here.

This is where he lived, isn't it?

He was the first man I ever loved.

What happened?

A week before we were to be married

he disappeared without a word.

I'm sorry, Mickey.

Don't let it happen again, Sym.

Get up.

Get up.

Sym. Sym, please listen to me!

Sym, please wait. Don't! Ah!

Sym please, don't you understand
it's not right like this.

Something we both
want this much is right.

Could Julio Lamberto
tell you he loved you?

Yes, many times.

And in this bed now, who is it?

Me or him?

You! Only you!

That's why I wanted to come here
to wipe out the memory of him.

It's all you now, Sym.

Tell me that you love me.

Can you change your feelings

from one person to another so easy.

Your not a substitute.
You're Sym, and I love you.

Mickey, for the last 7 years

all I ever knew was hate and death.

My capacity for real
love is destroyed.

No, don't throw away our
future because of our past.

Mickey I want you.

I will make love to you
but I can never love you.

You do love me.

Take me with you.

Y eah.

Hello children!

Oh, it's a lovely night, isn't it?

Doesn't she make a
lovely Mother Hubbard?

- Thank you, dear Mickey.
- Where's Nan and Diz?

Oh they're in their rooms
getting in their costumes.

Mother...

Sym and l...

Y es, dear.

We're in love and we're going
to San Francisco together.

Oh...

Aren't you going to wish us luck?

Oh, of course l...

I wish you both the best of luck.

- Oh, thank you Mother.
- Oh dear Mickey.

I'll go put my costume on.

See you in a little while.

Sym, there's something
I feel I must tell you.

Are you really serious
about Mickey?

Y es.

Oh, I do hope so.

I'm always afraid of what
might happen to her mind

if another man left her
like that Lamberto boy did.

You do not have to worry
about that Mrs. Terry.

If Mickey can be happy with
you Sym, then I'll be happy too.

No one seems to be happy anymore.

Oh it's only through
the grace of God

that my girls turned out to
be the angels that they are.

I've set an awful example for them.

It was not your
fault Mrs. T erry.

How could you know whether
it was my fault or not?

Diz told me the whole story.

Which story?

I promised I would not repeat it.

What did she tell you?

It's true, my husband is dead.

I don't suppose you've
ever heard of the

Thomas divorce case in Hungary?

No.

My maiden name was Jamierson.

The Jamierson's of Philadelphia.

Out of spite for my parents, l...

I married Malcolm Thomas.

He was a good for
nothing, a playboy.

We went to lots of parties and

then we found that
Diz was on her way,

why we tried to settle down.

He took up sculpting.

And they thought he'd
be a very good artist.

He carved that statue
the Venus de Milo

that you saw the first
night that you were here.

Well he began carousing
and drinking more.

Was one of our Halloween parties.

It was Nan's third birthday.

And he came home so drunk.

He beat me and he threw me down
the front steps of our house.

Poor Mickey...

Little one not
knowing any better...

She threw a toy at him and...

He started slapping her.

Diz ran down to try and stop him.

And he took the 3
children upstairs.

And he was still beating
them with a razor strap

when the police got there.

Well l...

I sued for divorce and...

Well, it would all have
been quieted down...

Except that the day my
divorce was granted...

He jumped off the top
of a 12 story building.

My parents thought it best that
I change my name and that...

I should take the girls away.

As far away from Philadelphia
as we could get and...

Well, my father, had a
grant on this filling station.

It was from an oil company...

So we went into the
filling station business.

- Mrs. Terry, l...
- What's wrong, Sym?

- Nothing, I just don't know...
- Oh, you're confused.

Cause Diz told you one story and

then you hear another one from me.

Come with me.

I want you to see something.

I keep these clippings hidden.

They'll prove to you that
I was telling you the truth.

Please, Mrs. Terry,
you do not have to...

I know.

God knows I've...
I've tried to be a good mother.

It's been so difficult

without a husband,
or without anyone.

Oh Sym, please be good to Mickey.

Please, don't cry, Mrs. T erry.

Please.

Mother!

Don't tell me you've
fallen for him too!

Well it's time for our birthday.

Happy birthday, Nan.

Dear Nan, blow out the
candles and then make a wish.

- Are they all out?
- Uh-huh.

What did you wish dear?

That Sym would take me to
San Francisco instead of Mickey.

Well that's one wish I can
guarantee you won't come true.

Because he's my prince charming.

Like hell he is!

Well it's time for our toast.

Here you are Sym.

There you are Mickey.

Here's to Mickey and Sym.

Diz you didn't touch your punch.

No! I'd choke!

Well let's have some
of your music Nan.

How about my musical
Electric Chair album?

Definitely not.

Then my Gas Chamber music.

Oh, anything you want dear.

Let's dance.

I love you.

Aaaaah!

- What happened?
- I don't know?

Nan!

- Nan!
- What is wrong?

I can't find Nan.

Nan! Where are you?

- Are you all right?
- I'll go look over here.

Nan, are you down there?

Mother?

Diz, are you teasing us?

Where's Nan?

Aaah!

Mickey!

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha...

Was that you screaming Mickey?

Diz must have her little jokes.

Diz Terry!

What's the matter with everyone?

It's Halloween, remember?

Nan, come on!

Fun's over.

Come on, let's go fetch your cake.

What the hell are these?

It's a lie.
You know this is a lie.

Sym, I don't know what she told you

but these newspapers
are fake. They are fake!

That's not true.

You don't know anything about
it. You don't love me anymore!

Let go of me! Let go of me!
Let go of me!

Nan, remember what I told you?

They hate us. They hate us.

Remember that. They hate us.

I know what you're doing!

I know what your're trying to
do and it's not going to work!

You understand me!
It's not going to work!

You made Mother hate us!

Well I guess our
little party is over.

Another happy birthday
has come and gone.

Well, goodnight all.

Goodnight, love.

Mickey, what really
happened to your Father?

Just what my Mother said,
he committed suicide.

I'll see you in the morning.

I'm sorry.

For what?

I'm sorry.

About what?

About you making Mother hate us.

You do not really
believe that do you?

Diz told me.

I hate men!

- All men?
- Diz says so.

Did you hate your Father?

- No.
- Then you do not hate all men.

Diz told me l shouldn't trust men.

I would not believe everything
Diz tells me, Nan.

Well, I don't.

Then you do not believe your
Mother killed your Father

the way Diz said?

No. No, I know the
really true story.

Do you want to hear?

We, you see...

Mother and Father
yelled and screamed

at each other all the time.

She would tell him
to go and get a job

and he would yell at her that...

that writing his poems

and carving his statues
were more important to him.

He made this one.

Isn't she lovely?

Oh, and he was
such a wonderful poet.

He wrote about the
most beautiful things.

Things about... about midgets
with eye trouble and...

and little girls with bald heads.

And then one night
Mickey and I were in bed.

But we weren't asleep.

And Diz was awake because,

well she was older and
she had homework to do.

Mother and Father
were yelling again.

And she said that
if he didn't get a job,

that she would burn
all of his poems

and break all of his carvings.

And Diz came upstairs in our room

and she told us to put our
heads under the pillow.

She thought I did.

But I didn't.

And then I heard Mother
and Father run outside.

And I heard the car start.

And it made a crunching noise.

And I heard Diz scream.

And then I heard Father say,
it's all right baby.

Everythings going to be all right.

And then I didn't hear
anything for a long time.

Except Father driving
away in the car.

And Diz crying.

A long time after that...

Diz came into our room
and she sat on my bed.

And she said Father had gone away.

Forever and ever.

She said Mother was very upset

and she'd have to
rest for a few days.

And that night Diz
slept in our room.

And was very quiet.

Except once in a while
I could hear Diz crying.

All that night I could
hear the fire burning.

And I knew it was where Mother

had thrown all of Father's
poems to burn.

And he never came back.

Diz and Mother said he's dead.

And I've even seen
a newspaper story.

But I don't tell them this.

But I know he isn't dead.

He's just somewhere
writing beautiful poems

that will never burn.

A painter, a playboy,
and now he's a poet.

Uh, Mickey and I want to get
an early start, so please...

I've known one man.

What?

Diz told me he was bad
and that he would hurt me.

But he only touched me and
kissed me all over my body.

I thought he was going
to take me away with him.

But he was bad, just like Diz said.

Julio Lamberto.

Are you bad too?

Did Diz have anything to do with
Juilio Lamberto's disappearance?

Sym...

Don't do that now.

Aren't you going to
take me with you?

- No.
- Diz was right!

Be careful with that,
you might hurt someone.

You'll regret this Sym.

Goodnight.

When the sun does come up high

Then that day someone will die.

Then that day someone will die.

You sure have a lot of luggage.

Oh, it's just my junk.
Let's go right away.

Don't you want to say
goodbye to your Mother?

No, I hate goodbyes.
Come on, let's go.

We'll call her from San Francisco.

All right.

Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,

Life is but a dream.

Two blind mice

- Three blind mice, not two.
- Oh three

Three blind mice

Nan!

I'm sorry sis.

- I'm sorry.
- Oh yes, I know. I know.

Now listen to me, you've got to
remember what has to be done.

Everytime one of those
men try to destroy our family.

But it's too late.
Sym's already taken Mickey

away and we'll never
see them again!

Yes we will.

Y es we will. We're going
to see them again.

- Are we going to Prescott?
- No.

- San Francisco?
- No.

We're going to wait.

We're going to wait
and sometime today

they're going to be back.

Good.

Good.

He must die.

Y es.

That's right baby...

Sym must die.

That's right, Sym must die.

Can you forget all
this about my family.

We used to have such good
times and then I don't know...

Somewhere, something went wrong.

But I know they'll be
better off without me.

- That's funny.
- What is wrong?

My billfold. I know that
I put it in my purse

and now it's not there.

Maybe you put it in
one of your suitcases.

Oh no, I distinctly remember
putting it in here. Oh!

- We'll have to go back.
- No. No please, no.

I don't want to back either

but we can't go to
San Francisco without money.

Come on, it will just
take a little time.

All right if we have to,
I guess we do.

You wait here I think l
remember where I left it.

Caesar.

Hey Caesar,

I did not figure on seeing
you so soon again.

Sym.

Sym.

Sym, please come here.

Nan? Are you there?

Maybe you can tell me, huh?

What really happened
to their Father?

Oh!

Is he dead?

Of course he's dead.
You hit him hard, didn't you?

- Y es.
- Nan.

Come on, Nan.

Come on!

I'm so excited today,
I can't remember when...

Sym? Well, where
could he have gone to?

- What's wrong with Caesar?
- I don't know?

Oh, dear God.

Oh!

Put him in!
Hurry, don't let them stop us!

Hurry, hurry, shove him in!
No Mickey!

Mickey no!
No, you don't understand!

Get back! Mother let me go!

- Help me! Help me!
- Ah!

Father!

No!

No, Fathers dead.

Yes!

Yes, Father is dead!

Mickey!

Mickey don't you understand that...

that's why we have
to get rid of Sym...

We have to get rid of Sym or

he's going to break up the family.

What have you've done!

I... I didn't mean
to kill Mother. It...

It was an...
it was an accident. The...

tires...

were just...

rolling all over her, bloody and...

She didn't have any right
to let me kill her, did she?

She... she didn't have any
right to do that, did she?

No, Diz. She was no fit Mother.

Out every night with other men.

Always embarrassing me,
always making fun of me.

I tried to help you Diz.

In a way...

She killed herself.

No she didn't.

No...

She let me kill her.

She let me kill her.

And... and the tires were
just rolling all over her.

But Mickey, you see,
everything will be all right

if we just stay together.

If we just stay together then...

then we'll be all safe.
Don't you see?

It was an accident!

No, it wasn't an accident.

I hated her!

I hated her!

That's why I killed her.

Because Mother and Father were
always fighting and yelling.

I had to kill her.

Oh, Mickey please...

Please understand...

Oh please,
you've got to understand.

You and Nan were too little
to remember that night.

I remembered that
night for 15 years.

Father, you tried to protect me!

Because... because we
wanted to save the family!

Oh Mickey, please don't hate me.

Oh please don't hate me.

I don't hate you Diz.

Sym, don't be mad at me.

Of course not.

I wanted Julio and Sym to be in
love with me and take me away.

But Diz told me they wouldn't,
so I had to get even.

Julio...

You killed Julio!

They were going to
take our sister away.

You killed Julio!

No Mickey! No, no, don't leave!

- No Mickey!
- Get away from me!

Don't leave! Don't leave!

Come on.

Take Sym to the
hospital in Clarkdale.

Wait a day and then...

then tell the sheriff to come out.

- But...
- No, no, no. No.

Don't come with him.
Promise me that.

Listen, I know you'll find
the happiness you deserve.

Father, I love you.

Go!

Go Mickey.

What do we do now?

I believe we'll have some tea.

Come along girls.

Anyone care for cream or sugar?

Who cares.

Well, it's never too late
to be a good Father.

Mickey, what really
happened to your Mother?
