The Journey of Natty Gann

Connie

Connie: [Natty marches up the stairs with Connie behind her scolding] That is it I've had It!
Connie: I won't stand for another thing from you young lady you hear me? I'm drawing the line right now!
Connie: [sees the dog Natty is holding] and that thing better be gone by morning do you hear me?
[Natty slams the door in Connie's face]

Connie: [reopens the door and she is very furious with a finger in Natty's face] Now you listen to me you little twirp! Just one more thing from you just one and I guarantee you'll be sorry you ever laid your eyes on me! You understand me?
Connie: I'll have you so scared your going to pee in your pants! You'll crawl on the floor begging me for mercy!
Connie: So don't push me! You got it!

Sol Gann: [asking Connie to be the temporary guardian of Natty Gann] It's not going to be that hard Connie. I mean she's a good kid, practically takes care of herself. All you got to do is make sure she's eating right and she's getting her sleep in now just look after her.
Connie: Okay.
Sol Gann: Just watch over her. After I get some money I'll send it to you first thing. And all you got to do is buy her a ticket and put her on a train.
Connie: It will be extra for taking her to the station. And if your not paying me in advance Sol it will be 9 bucks not 7.
[the clock chimes]
Sol Gann: [relizes it's getting late] Okay, okay it's a deal Connie.
[puts his arm on her shoulder]
Sol Gann: You'll do it?
Connie: Sol I said I'll do it.
[puts her hand on his his chin in a reassuring gesture]
Connie: I'll do it.
Sol Gann: [smiles at her] Thanks, Connie.
[grabs his bag and leaves]
