M'Lynn:
[crying]
I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine. [screaming] M'Lynn:
I'm fine! I can jog all the way to Texas and back, but my daughter can't! She never could! Oh God! I am so mad I don't know what to do! I wanna know why! I wanna know *why* Shelby's life is over! I wanna know how that baby will *ever* know how wonderful his mother was! Will he *ever* know what she went through for him! Oh *God* I wanna know *why*? *Why*? Lord, I wish I could understand! [in a firm tone] M'Lynn:
No! No! No! It's not supposed to happen this way! I'm supposed to go first. I've always been ready to go first! I-I don't think I can take this! I-I don't think I can take this! I-I just wanna *hit* somebody 'til they feel as bad as I do! I just wanna hit something! I wanna hit it hard! [continues sobbing] Clairee:
Here! [grabs Ouiser by the shoulder and positions her in front of M'Lynn] Clairee:
Hit this! Go ahead M'Lynn, slap her! Ouiser Boudreaux:
[taken aback and confused]
Are you crazy? Clairee:
Hit her! Ouiser Boudreaux:
Are you *high*, Clairee? Truvy:
[in a frightened tone]
Clairee, have you lost your mind? Clairee:
We'll sell t-shirts sayin' "I SLAPPED OUISER BOUDREAUX!" Hit her! Annelle:
[in a scared tone]
Ms. Clairee, enough! Clairee:
Ouiser, this is your chance to do something for your fellow man! Knock her lights out, M'Lynn! Ouiser Boudreaux:
[snatches away]
Let go o' me! Clairee:
M'Lynn, you just missed the chance of a lifetime! Half o' Chiquapin Parish'd give their eye teeth to take a whack at Ouiser!
