He would've followed us, and he would have found us.
Don't lose sleep over it, Cora. I'm just disappointed.
I thought we had somethin'.
You just don't know what it's like.
Bein' a woman, trapped in this kind of...
You don't, you don't know.
There's always a way, Cora.
If we stick together.
I didn't know what to do.
Cora!

We'll know for sure after we see the tests.
It'll be about a week. All of a week.
Can I have the book, please?
Thanks.
All he knows, it went dark.
If he'd have turned around, Frank, they'd have hanged us for it.
And something, something put that cop there.
It's an act of God, those lights went out.
Don't look back.

Yeah.
Sounds like that.
Sorry about your husband, ma'am.
Thank you.
Thanks a lot.

Yeah, you're right.
Me neither.

It's all in the feet. You must watch the feet.
-Can I talk to you a minute? -It is beautiful, believe me.
-You just watch your feet... -Can I talk to you for a minute?
-And you will learn... -Excuse me.
I can't talk about it now.
What do you mean, you can't talk about it now?
Four days already, you can't talk about it.
Yeah, and you don't understand.
I can't do it anymore, Frank. You understand?
Why can't you do it anymore?
What does that mean? You can't do it anymore?
-It's over. -Come dance.
What? What are you talkin' about?
Bravo, Nicko.
Come here.
This man saved my life. I'm fond this man.
Cora, my feets, you know.
My feets. They're beautiful, huh?
-Beautiful. -You say it.
You say it Greek.
Nick, I can't say it in Greek.
Come on, you say it.
Say it.
That's it.
Come here. Now, you say it. Is beautiful.
Tonight.
What?
What're you doing?
You're the guy's wife, Cora.
You told me that.
You were gonna leave me?
-I was writing you a note. -Were you writing me a thank-you note?
-Is that what you were doing? -Cora, look.
Live here.
Live with the guy.
Took a chance, we didn't make it.
Live with the man.
He wants to have a baby. You understand?
He's changed.
He says the accident changed him and now I'm supposed to have his kid.
How am I gonna do that, Frank?
How am I supposed to have his baby?
I can't have his baby.
The only one I could have a baby by is you.
Okay.
Say you won't leave me. Please.
Just stall him, babe.
Just stall him.

-What, do you own this car, big fella?
-Get in the back. -Just get in the back.
That's it.
You drive safely now, okay? Goodnight.
-Good wine. -C'mon, Nick.
Is nothing like to have a wife.
-Cut it out, Nick. -Don't worry. He's drunk.
-Shit! -Don't talk like that.
It's boiling over, Nick. I gotta pull over.
Hey, wake 'im up.
Wake up. The car's stopped.
Come on, wake up. You gotta fix it.
Frank, get out of the car.
Shit.
