Read this passage: WALTER (Rising and coming to (RUTH) and standing over her)
You tired, ain't you? Tired of everything. Me, the boy, the way we
live - this beat-up hole - everything. Ain't you? (She doesn't look
up, doesn't answer) So tired - moaning and groaning all the time,
but you wouldn't do nothing to help, would you? You couldn't be
on my side that long for nothing, could
you?
