Lulu Bains : Oh, he gave me special instructions back of the pulpit Christmas Eve. He got to howlin' "Repent! Repent!" and I got to moanin' "Save me! Save me!" and the first thing I know he rammed the fear of God into me so fast I never heard my old man's footsteps!

Elmer Gantry : I did run out on you back there in Kansas, didn't I?
Lulu Bains : It's nobody's fault. Except maybe my old man's.
Elmer Gantry : Ever hear from him?
Lulu Bains : Once, last Christmas. The letter said "Daughter, read 1st Kings, Chapter 21 Verse 23." I looked it up. It said "And the dogs in the street shall eat Jezebel." My old man and his Bible.
