You know the floor is missing?

Willy Jack got the whole car for 80 bucks. He had to fix everything on it. And here's the best part.

No fives!

You and your fives.
Rhonda:
What fives?
Novalee Nation:
On my fifth birthday my mama ran off with a baseball umpire named Fred and never came back. And after I dropped out of school and was waiting tables at Red's, one of the regulars there named Gladys went crazy. When I tried to calm her down she jumped at me with a steak knife and cut me from my wrist to my elbow.
Rhonda:
And what's that got to do with fives?
Nicki:
It took 55 stitches to close her up.
Novalee Nation:
I don't like fives.

On my fifth birthday, my mama ran off with a
baseball umpire named Fred and never came back.
After I dropped out of school
and was waitin'tables at Red's,
one of the regulars there
named Gladys went crazy.
When I tried to calm her down
she jumped at me with a steak knife...
and cut me from my wrist to my elbow.
And what's that
got to do with fives?
It took 55 stitches
to close her up.
I don't like fives.
- That's it. Let's hit it. Let's go, let's go!
- Hon,
will you take a picture of us
with my new camera?
- Wait!
- All around, let's go. Come on, come on!
- I'm gonna miss you. Call me, okay?
- All right. Bye.
All right. Bye.
- Jesus, finally. It's already 5:00.
- 5:00?
I hope we can a place to live
that overlooks the ocean.
Hell, Novalee, you can't see
the ocean from Bakersfield.
Well, well, maybe a pond then.
I wanna get one of those patio tables
with an umbrella over it...
where we can sit with the baby and drink
chocolate milk and watch the sun go down.
