• Young Pharmacy Kid : Strong, strong stuff here. What exactly you have wrong, you need all this stuff?

  Linda Partridge : Motherfucker...

  Young Pharmacy Kid : What are you talking about?

  Linda Partridge : Who the fuck are you, who the fuck do you think you are? I come in here, you don't know me, you don't know who I am, what my life is, you have the balls, the indecency to ask me a question about my life?

  Old Pharmacist : Please, lady, why don't you calm down - ?

  Linda Partridge : Fuck you, too. Don't call me "lady". I come in here, I give these things to you, you check, you make your phone calls, look suspicious, ask questions. I'm sick. I have sickness all around me and you fucking ask me about my life? "What's wrong?" Have you seen death in your bed? In your house? Where's your fucking decency? And then I'm asked fucking questions. What's... wrong? You suck my dick. That's what's wrong. And you, you fucking call me "lady"? Shame on you. Shame on you. Shame on both of you.
