Sporting Blood

Preface:
Since the beginning of Time the Horse has been Man's loyal friend... But Man has not always been the Friend the Horse has to Man...

Uncle Ben:
Mr. Rellece, you like to make believe you ain't got no heart for horses, but I knows you. You loves that little colt.

Mr. Jim Rellence:
Oh, quit your gabbin'. Did I ever say I was gonna sell 'im?

Uncle Ben:
No, sir, you sure did not, and if ever you did, I ain't ever heard yuh.

Warren 'Rid' Riddell:
I could be crazy about you, Ruby.

Miss 'Missy' Ruby:
I could like you too, Rick, but we'd be crazy if we did. The cards are stacked against us,

Warren 'Rid' Riddell:
Yeah, I guess we need a new deal.

Warren 'Rid' Riddell:
[Seeing Ruby taking a drink out of a flask in the back of Scanlon's limo] Aw, don't do that, Ruby!

Miss 'Missy' Ruby:
Why not?

Warren 'Rid' Riddell:
I hate to see anyone hit the hootch the way you do.

Miss 'Missy' Ruby:
You don't know how bad I need this drink.

Warren 'Rid' Riddell:
It's not good medicine.

Miss 'Missy' Ruby:
It is for what ails me.

Warren 'Rid' Riddell:
What's that?

Miss 'Missy' Ruby:
You.

Warren 'Rid' Riddell:
Well, let me tell you something. Don't get too high on a horse. They'll disappoint you.

Miss 'Missy' Ruby:
Tommy couldn't disappoint as much as some men have.
