It was raining on the day of the funeral of Dr. Vermilion ; the one who is crying melodramatically is Mrs. Vermilion; then to her left is her daughter, Dawn Vermilion, who tried to comfort her.
MRS.VERMILION: i can't believe it, what will we do!?
DAWN: now mother, you know just because Damian is sick doesn't mean you don't have a child who can work, now dry your tears.
MRS.VERMILION: (sniff) alright (blows into the handkerchief)
Dawn took the handkerchief with disgust and got out of the room.
And then a woman who was the "nurse" of Dr. Vermilion, Charlotte Jones, has entered the room
there's always a woman By Carol Burnett & Ruthie Henshall (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQQ15iRG0ZA)
MRS. VERMILION : (waves at Charlotte) there's always a woman, to spoil the illusion.
the rotten banana that ruins the bunch.
it's always a woman who causes confusion.
There's nothing as low as a woman.
we must lunch.
CHARLOTTE: love to.
MRS. VERMILION: tomorrow.
CHARLOTTE: Never.
MRS. VERMILION: Perfect
(change places)
CHARLOTTE: there's always a woman, the one disappointment.
the tune that goes sour and gums up the show.
the ant at the picnic.
the fly in the ointment.
there's nothing as low as a woman.
i should go.
MRS. VERMILION: Don't.
CHARLOTTE: really?
MRS. VERMILION: stay.
CHARLOTTE: thanks.
MRS. VERMILION: a minute.
BOTH: it's always a woman, the counterfeit check.
CHARLOTTE: the snake in the woodpile.
MRS. VERMILION: the pain in the neck.
BOTH: the sand in the oyster that isn't the pearl.
there's nothing as low as a woman.
