  Keechie : [reading Bowie's letter to herself, as she walks back to her cabin]  "Hello girl. I'm gonna miss you, but I got to do it this way. I'll send for both of you when I can. No matter how long it takes, I got to see that kid. He's lucky. He'll have you to keep him squared around. I love you, Bowie."

  [turns to look at Bowie's lifeless body on the ground, whispers] 

  Keechie : I love you.

• Bowie : You said you weren't here when the pipes bust. Where were you?

  [Keechie gives no response] 

  Bowie : I asked you where you were!

  Keechie : Seein' a doctor.

  Bowie : About what?

  Keechie : The baby we're gonna have.

  Bowie : [angry]  Well, that's just fine. That's all I need!

  Keechie : You don't see me knittin' anything, do you?
