LEXI: Always keepin’ score.
RONDA: Thought we had somethin’ goin’ on.
LEXI: What does that mean?
RONDA: You and me.
LEXI: Don’t mean nothin’ to me when it comes to tappin’ into my assets.
RONDA: Assets? You call a couple a beers and a few smokes assets?
LEXI: Anything I part ways with.
RONDA: I’d give you the shirt off my back and wouldn’t expect anything in return.
LEXI: Should give me the sweater on your back, that’s mine too.
RONDA: You’re mean Lexi.
LEXI: I’m honest.
RONDA: But you’re still mean.
LEXI: Sometimes a person’s gotta be mean in order to be honest.
RONDA: You could say things nicely and still make your point.

LEXI: Nobody got anythin’. We all die with nothin’ anyway, so what’s the point. Not like we can take it with us.

LEXI: I said don’t do it.
RONDA: (Shrugs her shoulders.) Gotta do somethin’.
LEXI: Thought you said you were takin’ the bus back home.
RONDA: Not now that the money’s in my hands.
LEXI: Then give it back.
RONDA: I’m undecided.
LEXI: If you ain’t goin’ then give me back my money.
RONDA: I don’t know what to do.
LEXI: You’re takin’ that damn bus!
RONDA: I don’t wanna go back home and I don’t wanna go back to the club, neither. I can’t stay on the street and you won’t let me stay at yours, so I’m all over. I got nowhere else to go tonight!
LEXI: Damn it girl…(sitting.) Just damn it…
