I just call it rheumatism medicine.

Don't make it legal.

It ain't rheumatism medicine neither.

But it's only to be used when a woman is too old to get a man any other way.

Oh, now, Granny, you're still a fine figure of a woman.

It ain't for me.

It's for Ellie Mae.

Out here, girls seem to reach their prime might later.

Now, Jed, let's not fool ourselves with city talk.

I got a conjure, uh, cooking to do.

What's cooking?

I'm steaming some grits.

What's all that for?

Gravy.

Hurry up.

What you sniffling about?

Is there any sadder sight than an old maid?

Granny, just for what it's worth, I had another talk with Mr. Drysdale about Ellie meeting a fella.

Well, I'll tell you what it's worth.

We've done talked away her golden years.
