Hello? Oh, hello, Lucille.
Tell me - how's your brother Zack?
Have they got the x-rays back?
What did they say?
Oh, my! What? Yes, she's on her
way.
You've taken this so well, my dear.
Oh, now, I'm sure she'd want to hear
That he's O.K. . . .
She's still his wife! What's
that you say?
His liver's saved? Well that's good news!
I mean, I'd hate to see him lose. . .
I mean, thank God.
Huh? It does. It does seem odd.
I'm sure she wasn't aiming for. . .
No, nothing makes sense any more. . .
It's all a mess.
Yes, yes.
I understand just how you feel.
Goodbye, Lucille.
What? How does Granddaddy feel?
Not well. I mean, he's gotten worse.
I talked this morning to his nurse. . .
Oh, thanks. I will. I'll tell him so.
Lucille, I'd better let you go.
Goodbye, Lucille.
What's that? The horse? How did
you know?
Yes, Billy Boy. No, lightning. Yes!
No, no suffering, I would guess.
Yes, quite a shock. . .
(Hmm?) Thank you dear, that means
a lot.
Now, I should. . .I've got to. . .what?
The liver? Yes, I'll tell Babe
that.
His spine?. . .I'll tell her that, as well.
This must be hell for you. Just hell. . .
Yes, I'll tell her.
No big deal.
Goodbye, Lucille.
(Lenny hangs up and promptly
breaks down.)
