-ls that what you learned at ballet?
-Do you like it?

:36:26
-What have you got on your face?
-lt's just some lipstick.

:36:29
-Lottie!
-Yes?

:36:31
Take Kay upstairs and wash her face
and give her a good scrubbing.

:36:34
My face don't need scrubbing.
l washed it this morning.

:36:37
-Go on, hurry up.
-lt can stand more soap and water.

:36:47
-Veda.
-Yes, Mother, what is it?

:36:49
-Where did you find the uniform?
-l was looking for a handkerchief.

:36:53
-ln my closet?
-l looked everywhere.

:36:55
Your handkerchiefs are always in your
top drawer. Why were you in my closet?

:36:59
You're making quite a fuss about
something which doesn't matter.

:37:03
lf you bought the uniform for Lottie,
and l can't imagine who else it would it be for...

:37:07
...then why shouldn't she wear it?
:37:09
You've been snooping since l got this
job trying to find out what it is.

:37:13
And now you know, don't you?
:37:16
Know what? Know what, Mother?
:37:19
You knew that uniform was mine,
didn't you?

:37:22
-Your uniform?
-Yes. l'm waiting tables downtown.

:37:26
My mother. A waitress.
:37:28
l took that job so you and your sister
could eat, sleep and have clothes.

:37:33
Did you have to degrade us?
:37:35
-Don't talk like that!
-l'm not surprised.

:37:37
You've never spoken of your people,
where you came from, so perhaps it's natural.

:37:41
Maybe that's why Father--
:37:52
l'm sorry l did that.
l'd have rather cut off my hand.

:37:58
l'd never have taken the job
if l hadn't wanted to keep us all together.
