INT: JAIL HOUSE
KITTY MARCHES OVER TO THE JAIL HOUSE WHERE SHE FINDS MATT AND CHESTER KICKED BACK ASLEEP.
KITTY
Matt! Wake up, Matt! Chester!
MATT AND CHESTER SLOWLY AWAKEN FROM THEIR SIESTAS.
KITTY
Matt, what's this I hear about you putting the move on
that woman from Dr. Feelgood's show? Please tell me it
isn't true!
MATT
Well, I wish I could tell you I'm innocent, but I can't. And I'm not.
(beat)
Yes, I did go over and see her the other night.
KITTY
(Kitty huffs.)
Well! Of all the dirty deals you've ever done, this is the worst!
Sneaking off behind my back and making time with another
woman! And a stranger, too!
MATT
(smirking)
A stranger she's not. Now.
KITTY
I heard that! Matt, I thought you and I had something going. Albeit
discrete, I thought our little talks and pleasantries when we see
each other in the Long Branch were enough for you. I see now that they
weren't. You need more.
MATT
KITTY
I heard that too! Suppose I agree to not only give you discounts
at the bar but smile at you once in a while, even when no one's
looking? Will that satisfy you?
MATT WINKS AT CHESTER.
MATT
Yeah. But how much of a discount?
KITTY
How about 50 percent off?
MATT
How about 100 percent off?
KITTY
MATT WINKS AT CHESTER AGAIN.
MATT
Ok. And when I'm not around, Chester can be your man.
You know. Keep it all going to us jail folk.
KITTY
(seductively teased)
Matt, that crude talk is getting me turned on! Suppose you and
go over to the Long Branch and I get you one of those free
drinks now? I think you would enjoy a tin roof.
MATT
KITTY
You know. It's on the house!
ALL YUK IT UP AT THE OLD WEST HUMOR.
KITTY
MATT
Kitty, I'm just putting you on. I'm not giving up my other
honey no matter how many free drinks and smiles you hand over.
KITTY
Well! I guess I see where I stand! Ok Matt Dillon. You just
keep on visiting that woman! But you just better hope you never
need a stiff belt, cause I'm the keeper of the booze around here!
Or did you forget that?!
MATT
Chester, show Miss Kitty.
CHESTER HOBBLES OVER TO THE CLOSET AND OPENS THE DOOR TO REVEAL CASES OF WHISKEY AND OTHER SPRITS.
