Hello?

Beverly

Is this the C*cksucker residence?

Dottie

God damn you. Stop calling here.

Beverly

Isn't this 4215 Pu**y Way?

Dottie

You... B**CH!

Beverly

Now let me check the zip code. 212-FU*K-YOU?

Rosemary

[Arriving at the Sutphin residence unannounced and letting herself in]

Beverly. Beverly darling. You home?

Dottie

The police are tracing this call this very minute.

Beverly

Well, Dottie Hinkle, then why aren't they here, huh? Fu*kface!

Dottie

Fu*k you!

[She slams the phone down]

Beverly

[Laughs and then re-dials]

Dottie

[Answering the phone]

Didn't I just say "fu*k you"?

Beverly

[Putting on a different voice]

I beg your pardon?

Dottie

Who is this?

Beverly

Mrs. Wilson from the telephone company. I understand you're having problems with an obscene phone caller?

Dottie

Yes, I am. I'm sorry, Mrs. Wilson but this is driving me crazy. I've had my number changed twice already. I'm a divorced woman. Please help me.

Beverly

What, exactly does this sick individual say to you?

Dottie

I can't say the words out loud. I don't use bad language.

Beverly

Oh, well I know it's difficult but we need to know the exact words.

Dottie

I'll try. "C*cksucker". That's what she calls me.

Beverly

[Breaking cover]

Listen to your filthy mouth, you fu*king whore!

Dottie

God damn you!

Beverly

Mother fu*ker!

Dottie

C*ck sucker!

[They both slam the phone down]

Rosemary

Beverly? Beverly. Are you all right?

Carl makes me happy and that threatens this family, doesn't it?

Beverly

I'm happy too. We just want you to be happy.

Chip

I'm so happy I could sh*t!

[Speaking into his radio]

All units, Serial Mom is headed South on Keswick. Proceed with caution. She is armed. And fu*king nuts!

Clip 4

Beverly is conducting her own defence at her trial for multiple murder. She has Dottie Hinkle on the stand and she knows how to push her buttons.

Beverly

So, you do drink?

Dottie

Socially. I'll have a beer.

Beverly

So you admit you just lied?

Dottie

No I don't, you b**ch.

Judge

Watch your mouth, Mrs. Hinkle.

[BEVERLY cups her mouth and, out of sight of the jury, mouths the words "fu*k you" toward DOTTIE]

Dottie

Did you see that? She just said "fu*k you" to me.

Beverly

Let the record show I am merely standing here.

Dottie

Fu*k you too!

Judge

I'm warning you, Mrs. Hinkle. One more obscenity and I'm gonna charge you with contempt of court.

Beverly

Mrs. Hinkle... are you insane?

Dottie

No, I'm not you mother fu*ker.

Judge

Mrs. Hinkle, I find you guilty of contempt and I sentence you to a thousand dollar fine and five days in jail.

Dottie

[Getting dragged away by court bailiffs]

C*ck sucker! You lousy pig fu*ker! You b**ch! You ugly whore! Let go of me.

Clip 5

It's handy having two friendly refuse collectors in your pocket. Especially when your defence relies on magazines found in your trash.

Beverly

Uh, Detective Gracey. If I were to look through your trash, what reading materials would I find?

Prosecutor

Objection. Immaterial.

Judge

You may answer.

Detective Gracey

Time, Sports Illustrated, National Geographic. My wife gets Ladies' Home Journal.

Beverly

Yet, last night. we found in your trash can this magazine. Chicks with Dicks.

[There's laughter from the public gallery]
