Gertrude: an alien
could come here and
be afraid. I never
heard anyone say that
and I'm part of the Pattern,
people think we're tough,
people who know us.
Ima: What did you
say, Gertrude?
Gertrude: Are you
mad at me?
Ima: I'm sorry, no, your
dress is beautiful. What did
you say about an alien?
Gertrude: I'm worried they'll
                           get hurt...
