"Liz, we forgot the pistols."
if you do what you did today, Miss Judith will send you away, warns Beth. Jenny insists Judith can't do anything; she's nobody. Beth says that's not true anymore--she owns the house now, everything, gives all the orders, even to her brothers-- everyone! says Beth bitterly--and you must, too--you have got to be good, and quiet and try to understand or she'll send you far away.This upsets Jenny, who asks, Will she let me take my babies with me? Yes, Beth assures her. Jenny calms again--that's all that matters. No, says Beth, try to understand--you must be good!--will you be good? Yes, says Jenny, covering her "babies"--the climate I used to live in was warmer than here--do you think my babies will get a chill? Resigned to the madwoman's inattention, Beth assures her they will be fine.
There's a knock at the door. Carolyn goes to answer. It's Joe and Burke, reporting they didn't find a trace of Vicki. Roger, left alone in the drawing room, looks pissed off at the sound of Burke's voice. We searched just about everyplace, says Joe. You must be frozen, says Liz, come on inside. I could stand to thaw out a little, agrees Burke. They troop into the drawing room and Burke spots Roger. What do you have there? Roger demands of Burke. A weapon, says Burke, holding up the rifle. It's mine, isn't it? asks Roger. I didn't want them to go out without some protection, says Liz, sitting on the sofa. It could be dangerous in here, as we'll as outside, quips Burke, handing Roger back his rifle. If you don't mind, says Roger, the sight of you with a loaded gun is not a very comfortable picture.
I also want to add that I'm glad Stake Land was on the list. It's a powerful film that bowled me over. If there's an opportunity to watch it (it does pop up on cable every once in awhile), do so.
