Week 07, Wednesday, Day 033

Precious is feeling sorry for Monching, who is sitting by himself getting drunk. When Misty comes by, Precious asks her sister if there's any chance that Monching really was telling the truth.




Misty says there's no denying what she heard in the bathroom; there was something perverted going on. She says she should have known there was something strange about the old bachelor.




When Precious reproaches Misty for making the situation worse by goading Mrs. Reyes, Misty asks her how she could possibly believe a dirty old man like Monching over her own sister. She turns to look at Monching and says he's just trying to gain people's sympathy with his act.




Misty says who would have thought Monching preferred men. When Precious says nothing, Misty says she's tired and heads to bed. Monching gives Misty a baleful look as she walks past him.



Later that night, Rita returns home and is surprised when Monching does not return her greeting.



When Rita cheerfully tries to get Monching to respond, Precious drags her out the door and says it's just a waste of time trying to get him to answer.




Rita asks if there's trouble and asks Precious to give her the juicy gossip. When Precious whispers the news, Rita is shocked and turns to Monching and loudly asks him if he's really gay.




Precious tries to shush her, but it's too late. Monching has heard and he unsteadily rises to his feet while shouting that he's not gay.




The two girls are shocked into silence when Monching suddenly upends the table and sends all the beer bottles crashing to the floor.
