“I didn't mean to do a bad thing. Now George will be upset.”
Curley's Wife walks into the barn:
What you got there, sonny boy?
George giving you orders about everything?
George says that I ain't to have nothing to do with you-talk to you or nothing.
They're just afraid of Curley, but Curley's hand is broken and all the guys are playing a game right now, so it's safe to talk to me. I get lonely and I just want to talk to someone.
Jus' my pup. I was jus' playin' with him... an' he made like he's gonna bite me...an' I made like I was gonna smack him...an'...am' I done it. An' then he was dead.
What you got there?
What's wrong with me? I could've been an actor, instead I'm stuck here.
Now George won't let me tend to the rabbits and I still shouldn't be talking to you!
What makes you so nuts about rabbits?
I just like to pet them cause they feel nice. I like to pet soft things.
I could've had rabbits.
Oh! That's nice.
I get that. My hair is soft. Here see.
Look out, now you'll muss it. You stop now! You let go!
Oh please don't do that George will be mad!
I don't want to hurt you, but George'll be mad if you yell. Oh no I've done a bad thing. I done another bad thing.
I shouldn't of did that. George'll be mad. An'...he said...an' hide in the brush till he come, He's gonna be mad. In the brush till he come. That' what he said.
Oh Jesus Christ!
Lennie must have done it. Guess we gotta tell the guys and find him.
He's such a nice fella. I didn' think he'd do nothing like this.
I'm gonna shoot the guts outa that big bastard myself, even if I only got one hand. Im gonna get 'im!
