Charisse Slocumb
- Charisse Slocumb: Bernice Talbot? My-my husband done did it wit' that child in that "Shop-Well" parking lot? LORD TAKE ME NOW!
- Charisse Slocumb: My husband done did it with that child in the Shopwell parking lot? Lord, Take me now!
- [falls to the floor screaming in hysterics]
- Marguerite Slocumb: Don't nobody mind her, she just likes attention.
- Juanita Slocumb: Charisse, honey, where is Junior?
- Charisse Slocumb: I don't know, ask Bernice Talbot.
- Juanita Slocumb: [laughs] Girl, you so funny. You want some gum?
- Charisse Slocumb: [Coldly] No thank you.
- Juanita Slocumb: I always crave a pack of sweet gum before weddings and funerals. I think it's something about the rhythm of it that sort of lulls me, helps my mind wander. You wanna know what I think about when my mind wanders?
- Charisse Slocumb: Well I'm sure you gon tell me.
- Juanita Slocumb: I think about my life. How at the end of each day I tuck my precious boy into bed. Turn off the lights in my $80,000 home. Crawl into my king-sized bed. And lie there and wonder. Where the hell my husband is.
- [pause]
- Juanita Slocumb: You sure you don't want a piece?
- Charisse Slocumb: [Surprised. Takes a piece of gum] Why don't you leave him?
- Juanita Slocumb: And go where? Charisse, I got everything I ever asked for.
- Charisse Slocumb: But if he really loves you...
- Juanita Slocumb: Then I might be forced into that God-awful position of having to love him back.
- [pause]
- Juanita Slocumb: Do you love Junior?
- Charisse Slocumb: I just...
- Juanita Slocumb: [Interrupts] No. Do you want him back?
- [pause]
- Juanita Slocumb: You don't have to answer that honey. Just sit back and let the sweet gum take its effect. It'll come to you.
- Juanita Slocumb: Whew. Hot in here.
- Charisse Slocumb: Are my kids drivin' you crazy?
- Lucille: Oh, no, honey; we locked them outside.
- Royce: [whilst trying to hit Charisse's kids with a pillow as they laugh at him outside near the window] Hey Get your little ass away! Stop Banging on the window before you break it! I'm not playing don't make me come out there. I'll beat your ass if your daddy won't.
