?【影片獨(dú)白臺詞】

Bad news travels quickly,
and when it arrives, we have to find a way to deal with it.
If our husbands tell us they've moved on...
We look for projects to distract us.
If the bills start to?stack up,...
We find ways to earn extra cash.
If we're told a secret too terrible to share...
We learn to keep it to ourselves.
But we must remember the bad news that's delivered
can sometimes be good news...In disguise.
That the guy talkin' about?
The one that killed your sister?
It certainly is.
He looks like a killer.It's a shame they let him out.
As it turns out,it's all for the best.
Paul can now receive the punishment he's entitled to.
What do you mean?
Just between us girls,
Paul Young will be dead within six months.
How you gonna make that happen?
You're in here at least two years.
True, but you see,
Paul Young doesn't have a friends on that street.
I do.
