1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:05,000
Oh, I'm just sitting here kicking myself for not taking care of my gallbladder

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,800
and for going to that hospital for the operation and for letting them give me

3
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:15,000
blood without asking first. Oh, excuse me, are you sure this isn't gonna kill me one day?

4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,000
Now, now, Rose, take it easy.

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Why does everyone keep saying that? I don't feel like taking it easy.

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,000
I might have AIDS and it scares the hell out of me.

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,000
And yet every time I open my mouth to talk about it, somebody says, "There, there, Rose, take it easy."

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,000
I'm sorry, honey.

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Why me, Blanche? I'm tired of pretending I feel okay so you won't say, "Take it easy."

10
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000
And I'm tired of you saying, "Take it easy," 'cause you're afraid I'm gonna fall apart.

11
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Damn it, why is this happening to me? I mean, this isn't supposed to happen to people like me.

12
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:56,000
You must have gone to bed with hundreds of men.

13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,000
All I had was one innocent operation.

14
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Hey, wait a minute. Are you saying this should be me and not you?

15
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:11,000
No, no, I'm just saying that I am a good person.

16
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,000
Hell, I'm a goody two-shoes.

17
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:21,000
AIDS is not a bad person's disease, Rose. It is not God punishing people for their sins.

18
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:29,000
You're right, Blanche. Well, you're damn straight I'm right.

19
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,000
I'm sorry I yelled at you. Oh, don't apologize. I mean, this is what I want.

20
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Oh, God, this waiting is driving me crazy. Blanche, when you were tested, how did you make it through?

21
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Just kept it to myself and acted like a real bitch to everybody else.

22
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:52,000
No wonder we never knew.
