Storyline
Plot Summary |
Working in an Austin, Texas, beauty parlour in 1954, Nadine Hightower endeavours to retrieve some 'art studies' she injudiciously had taken. Her visit to the photographer leaves her in possession of highly valuable plans. With both the police and the murderous villains after her, she enlists the help of her (almost) ex-husband Vernon, the none too successful owner of the Bluebonnet Bar. Written by Jeremy Perkins {J-26} |

Vernon Hightower:
You mind tellin' me what the hell was goin' on back there? Nadine Hightower: Well, it's sort of like this. One of the girls down at the shop -- and don't ask who it is, 'cause I ain't gonna tell ya -- anyway, this guy Escobar took some, uh, pictures, I mean, some "art studies" of her... Vernon Hightower: What you MEAN is: this old boy talked her into posin' bare-ass for a bunch of pictures. And I bet that's not all they done. Nadine Hightower: [miffed] Vernon Hightower, you got a dirty mind! For your information, Mr. Escobar was in the Army with Hugh Hefner of Playboy magazine fame. How about that? Vernon Hightower: He pulled that one on her? I knew those gals in the shop wasn't the smartest things in the world, but I did give 'em more credit than that. And I'll bet you, that she's got a husband that's even dumber than she is. Nadine Hightower: [ironically] Hmm. See more » |
