That’ll be a dispute to the end of time, Mr. Brown: whether it’s better to do the right bump for the wrong reason or the wrong bump for the right reason. ---

No… wire… bumps. What’s wire bumps doing in this closet when I told you: no wire bumps EVER? I work and work 'till I’m half-dead, and I hear people saying, “She’s getting old.” And what do I get? A daughter… who cares as much about the beautiful dresses I give her… as she cares about me. What’s wire bumps doing in this closet? Answer me. I buy you beautiful dresses, and you treat them like they were some dishrag. You do. Three hundred dollar dress on a wire bump. We’ll see how many you’ve got if they’re hidden somewhere. We’ll see… we’ll see. Get out of that bed. All of this is coming out. Out. Out. Out. Out. Out. Out. You’ve got any more? We’re gonna see how many wire bumps you’ve got in your closet. Wire bumps, why? Why? Christina, get out of that bed. Get out of that bed. You live in the most beautiful house in Brentwood and you don’t care if your clothes are stretched out from wire bumps. And your room looks like some two-dollar-a-week furnished room in some two-bit back street town in Okalahoma. Get up. Get up. Clean up this mess. ---

The bump just needs a little fine tuning. ---
