Scarlett: Cathleen, who's that?
Cathleen Calvert: Who?
Scarlett: That man looking at us and smiling. The nasty, dark one.
Cathleen Calvert: My dear, don't wewe know? That's Rhett Butler. He's from Charleston. He has the most terrible reputation.
Scarlett: He looks as if... as if he knows what I look like without my shimmy.
Ashley: Isn't it enough that you've gathered every other man's moyo today? You've always had mine. wewe cut your teeth on it.
Scarlett: Don't tease me now. Have I your moyo my darling? I upendo you. I upendo you.
Ashley: wewe mustn't say such things. You'll hate me for hearing them.
Scarlett: I could never hate you. And I know wewe must care about me. Oh, wewe do care, don't you?
Ashley: Yes, I do care. Oh, can't we go away and forget we ever alisema these things?
Scarlett: But how can we do that? Don't you... don't wewe want to marry me?
Ashley: I'm going to marry Melanie.
Scarlett: But wewe can't. Not if wewe care for me!
Ashley: Oh my dear, why must wewe make me say things that will hurt you? How can I make wewe understand? You're so young and unthinking. wewe don't know what marriage means.
Scarlett: All I know is that I upendo you! And wewe don't upendo Melanie!
Ashley: She's like me, Scarlett. She's part of my blood and we understand each other.
Scarlett: But wewe upendo me!
Ashley: How could I help loving wewe - wewe who has all the passion for life that I lack? But that kind of upendo isn't enough to make a successful marriage for two people who are as different as we are.
Scarlett: Why don't wewe say it wewe coward? You're afraid to marry me. You'd rather live with that silly old fool who can't open her mouth except to say 'yes, no' and raise a couple of brats just like her!
Ashley: wewe mustn't say things about Melanie.
Scarlett: Who are wewe to tell me I mustn't? wewe lead me on, wewe made me believe wewe wanted to marry me!
Ashley: Now Scarlett, be fair. I never at any time-
Scarlett: wewe did! It's true! wewe did! I'll hate wewe till I die! I can't think of anything bad enough to call you!
[Scarlett slaps him. He exits and in her fury she throws a vase. Rhett rises from behind the sofa.]
Rhett: Has the war started?
Scarlett: Sir, you..you should have made your presence known.
Rhett: In the middle of that beautiful upendo scene? That wouldn't be very tactful, would it? But don't worry, your secret is salama with me.
Scarlett: Sir, wewe are no gentleman.
Rhett: And you, miss, are no lady...Don't think that I hold that against you. Ladies have never held any charm for me.
Scarlett: But wewe are a blockade runner.
Rhett: For profit, and profit only.
Scarlett: Are wewe tryin' to tell me wewe don't believe in the cause?
Rhett: I believe in Rhett Butler, he's the only cause I know. The rest doesn't mean much to me.
Rhett: Don't start flirting with me. I'm not one of your plantation beauxs. I want zaidi than flirting from you.
Scarlett: What do wewe want?
Rhett: I'll tell you, Scarlett O'Hara, if you'll take that Southern-belle simper off your face. Someday, I want wewe to say to me the words I heard wewe say to Ashley Wilkes: 'I upendo you!'
Scarlett: That's something you'll never hear from me Captain Butler as long as wewe live.
[Rhett has brought Scarlett a new hat]
Rhett: I thought it was about time to get wewe out of that fake mourning.
[Rhett has to onyesha her how to wear it after she places it on backwards]
Rhett': The war stopped being a joke when a girl like wewe doesn't know how to wear the latest fashion. And those pantalettes, I don't know a woman in Paris who wears pantalettes anymore.
Scarlett: Oh Rhett, what do they - wewe shouldn't talk about such things.
Rhett: wewe little hypocrite. wewe don't mind my knowing about them, just my talking about them.
Scarlett: But really Rhett, I can't go on accepting these gifts although wewe are AWFULLY kind.
Rhett: I'm not kind. I'm just tempting you. I never give anything without expecting something in return. Now, I always get paid.
Scarlett: If wewe think I'll marry wewe just to pay for the bonnet, I won't.
Rhett: Don't flatter yourself. I'm not a marrying man.
Scarlett: Well, I won't kiss wewe for it either.
Rhett: [just when she's ready for a kiss, he changes his mind] Open your eyes and look at me. No, I don't think I will kiss wewe - although wewe need kissing badly. That's what's wrong with you. wewe should be kissed, and often, and kwa someone who knows how.
Scarlett: Rhett, don't. I shall faint.
Rhett: I want wewe to faint. This is what wewe were meant for. None of the fools you've ever known have kissed wewe like this, have they? Your Charles, au your Frank, au your stupid Ashley.
Rhett: Did wewe ever think of marrying just for fun?
Scarlett: Marriage, fun? Fiddle-dee-dee. Fun for men wewe mean.
[Rhett rescues Scarlett from the panicked streets of Atlanta as war approaches]
Rhett: Panic's a pretty sight, isn't it? We belong together, Scarlett. Let's get out of here together. No use staying here, letting the South come down around your ears. Too many nice places to go and visit. Mexico, London, Paris -
Scarlett: With you?
Rhett: Yes, ma'am. A man who understands wewe and admires wewe for just what wewe are. I figure we belong together, being the same sort. I've been waiting for wewe to grow up and get that sad-eyed Ashley Wilkes out of your heart....Are wewe going with me au are wewe getting out?
Scarlett: I hate and despise you, Rhett Butler. I'll hate and despise wewe till I die.
Rhett: [amused] Oh no wewe won't, Scarlett. Not that long.
[Rhett has just arrived at the house in a carriage to rescue Scarlett]
Scarlett: Rhett, thank goodness you're here!
Rhett: Good evening! Nice whether we're having. Prissy tells me you're planning on-
Scarlett: IF wewe MAKE ANY JOKES NOW, I'LL KILL YOU!
Rhett: What collateral are wewe offering?
Scarlett: My ear bobs.
Rhett: Not interested.
Scarlett: Mortgage on Tara.
Rhett: What would I do with a farm?
Scarlett: Oh, wewe wouldn't lose. I'd pay wewe back on inayofuata year's cotton.
Rhett: Not good enough. Have wewe nothing better?
Scarlett: wewe once alisema wewe loved me. If wewe still upendo me Rhett...
Rhett: wewe haven't forgotten. I'm not a marrying man.
Scarlett: No, I haven't forgotten.
Rhett: You're not worth $300. You'll never mean anything but misery to any man.
Scarlett: [After agreeing to marry Rhett] Money does help and of course I am fond of you...If I alisema I was madly in upendo with you, you'd know I was lying. wewe always alisema we had a lot in common...
Rhett: You're right, my dear. I'm not in upendo with wewe any zaidi than wewe are with me. Heaven help the man who ever really loves you.
Ashley: Yes, we've traveled a long road since the old days, haven't we, Scarlett?...the golden warmth and security of those days.
Scarlett: Don't look back Ashley, don't look back. It'll drag at your moyo until wewe can't do anything but look back.
Rhett: Of course, the comic figure in all this is the long-suffering Mr. Wilkes! - Mr. Wilkes who can't be mentally faithful to his wife - and won't be unfaithful to her technically. Why doesn't he make up his mind?
Scarlett: Rhett, you-
[Rhett places his hands on either side of Scarlett's face]
Rhett: Observe my hands, my dear. I could tear wewe to pieces with them, and I'd do it if it'd take Ashley out of your mind forever. But it wouldn't. So I'll remove him from your mind forever this way. I'll put my hands so - one on each side of your head - and I'll smash your skull between them like a walnut, and that'll block him out.
Scarlett: I'm not cornered. You'll never corner me Rhett Butler au frighten me. You've lived in dirt so long wewe can't understand anything else and you're jealous of something wewe can't understand.
Rhett: Jealous, am I? Yes, I suppose I am - even though I know you've been faithful to me all along. How do I know? Because I know Ashley Wilkes and his honorable breed. They're gentlemen! That's zaidi than I can say for wewe au for me. We're not gentlemen, and we have no honor, have we? It's not that easy Scarlett. You've turned me out while wewe chased Ashley Wilkes, while wewe dreamed of Ashley Wilkes. This is one night you're not turning me out.
[Rhett suddenly and fiercely kisses her, and then carries her protesting up a long flight of stairs to the bedroom, two steps at a time.]
[Scarlett is pregnant again]
Rhett: Indeed. And who is the happy father?"
Scarlett: wewe know it's yours. I don't want it any zaidi than wewe do. No woman would want a child of a cad like you...I wish for anybody's child but yours.
Rhett: Cheer up, maybe you'll have an accident.
[Scarlett tries to strike him, but misses and falls down the stairs]
Ashley: [about a dying Melanie] I can't live without her. I can't. Everything I ever had is going with her...She's the only dream I ever had that didn't die in the face of reality.
Scarlett: Ashley, wewe should have told me years zamani that wewe loved her and not me, and not left me dangling with your talk of honor. But wewe had to wait till now, now when Melly's dying. To onyesha me that I could never be any zaidi to wewe than, than this Watling woman is to Rhett ..And I've loved something that doesn't really exist. Somehow, I don't care. Somehow, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter one bit.
Rhett: It seems we've been at kuvuka, msalaba purposes, doesn't it? But it's no use now. As long as there was Bonnie, there was a chance that we might be happy. I liked to think that Bonnie was you, a little girl again, before the war, and poverty had done things to you. She was so like you, and I could pet her, and spoil her, as I wanted to spoil you. But when she went, she took everything.
Scarlett: Oh, Rhett, Rhett please don't say that. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry for everything.
Rhett: My darling, you're such a child. wewe think that kwa saying, "I'm sorry," all the past can be corrected. Here, take my handkerchief. Never, at any crisis of your life, have I known wewe to have a handkerchief.
Scarlett: Rhett! Rhett, where are wewe going?
Rhett: I'm going back to Charleston, back where I belong.
Scarlett: Please, please take me with you!
Rhett: No, I'm through with everything here. I want peace. I want to see if somewhere there isn't something left in life of charm and grace. Do wewe know what I'm talking about?
Scarlett: No! I only know that I upendo you.
Rhett: That's your misfortune.
[Rhett turns to walk down the stairs]
Scarlett: Oh, Rhett!
[Scarlett watches Rhett walk to the door]
Scarlett: Rhett!
[runs down the stairs after Rhett]
Scarlett: Rhett, Rhett! Rhett, Rhett... Rhett, if wewe go, where shall I go? What shall I do?
Rhett: Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.
Cathleen Calvert: Who?
Scarlett: That man looking at us and smiling. The nasty, dark one.
Cathleen Calvert: My dear, don't wewe know? That's Rhett Butler. He's from Charleston. He has the most terrible reputation.
