Aretha! Aretha Robinson, what do you think you're doing? Aretha Robinson:
Eula Bench, you promised me to split these washbaskets fair and square! Eula:
And I did. Aretha Robinson:
Hell, you did! You charged them white folks one thing and paid me another! Eula:
Well, now, who's gonna wash all these? Aretha Robinson:
You can! Now pay me my money! Eula:
Alright, I'm gonna pay you your two little dollars, but don't you be expecting no more work from me! Aretha Robinson:
I got all the work I need from you! Ray, George, come on! Eula:
That's right! And don't y'all ever come back! Aretha Robinson:
[to Ray and George]
Y'all got to learn to read and write real good, so you don't have to work for folks like them. Scratch a liar, find a thief. Understand? Young Ray Robinson, Young George Robinson:
Yes, ma'am
