In a parked car in front of Barbara's house...
JENELLE - I can't get you out of my head, baby Thinking about how you didn't finish high school, how you live in your car...
KEIFFER - Hey, now... I can't take all the credit. It's actually B-Dubs' car.
JENELLE - Right. I forgot. God, it gets me so hot, imagining you in front of the abandoned Blockbuster, dealing pot to sixth-graders.
KEIFFER - What can I say? Gotta make cake. **they make out**
BARBARA - **from the front door** I see you two out there!
JENELLE - Shit. It's that awful woman who took in my child when I was unwilling to care for him.
BARBARA - You damn right is it! **dumps laundry on the lawn** Fyi, this is all clean.
JENELLE - Well, was clean.
BARBARA - Say goodbye to Jace, Jenelle. It's the last time you're going to see him.
JENELLE - Goodbye, Jace.
BARBARA - Huh. I thought you were gonna put up more of fight.
JENELLE - Nah. I know where I'm meant to be. **looks to Keiffer**
KEIFFER - **winks** Ready to hit up the food pantry again?
JENELLE - Was B-Dubs ready to let you sleep in his Caprice?
KEIFFER - Not really. I left Cheeto dust in there last time.
JENELLE - Oh. Well, what I meant is, hell yeah!
KEIFFER - Hope they have some of that sweet canned ham.
JENELLE - Me too, babe. Me too.

CHELSEA'S MOM - What the fuck? He's such a dick!
CHELSEA - But he's been winking and complimenting...
CHELSEA'S MOM - Don't care. He's a scrub. And to quote Rozonda Thomas, "I don't want no scrubs".
CHELSEA - Huh?
CHELSEA'S MOM - Before your time.
CHELSEA - But mom... He said I lost weight in my perineum!
CHELSEA'S MOM - That is fucking disgusting.
CHELSEA - I think it's kind of sweet.
CHELSEA'S MOM - I know I shouldn't be saying this to my own daughter, but you are a fucking idiot.
CHELSEA - Oh yeah? If I'm such an idiot, how am I able to care for Aubree?

In West Virginny...
LEAH - So, I'm thinking about getting a job.
COREY - What? Why would you do that?
LEAH - Well, we've been living in a trailer...
COREY - This is West Virginia. Even the governor lives in a trailer.
LEAH - True.
COREY - And I prefer to call it a "manufactured home", thank you very much.
LEAH - I'm just so bored here all day.
COREY - You ingrate. So playing with beings that can't communicate with you and cooking my casseroles doesn't fulfill you? Is that what you're saying?
LEAH - No, it's very fulfilling. I'm just ready to use my brain a little more.
COREY - I bet you're ready to use your brain. On strange men, you little harlot!
LEAH - I don't understand what that means.
COREY - If I let you go out in public, next thing I know, men will be able to see you with their eyes. And then, next thing I know, you'll be talking to them with your mouth!
LEAH - No! I'd never!
COREY - Forget it. No job for you.
**silence**
LEAH - Maybe if I got a job, I could buy you a new four wheeler.
COREY - Need a ride to your interview?
