[last lines]
Lester Jenkins: Listen, everybody, what we need to do is put the spotlight on these pushers!
Rose Lee Holloway: That's right! You know, either they don't know or they don't care with they're doing to people, and it's getting so, I'm getting afraid to send Tiffany to school.
Tiffany Holloway: I'm not afraid of them.
Rose Lee Holloway: Well, I am!
Sandra Clark: I'll tell you another thing: drugs and men don't mix! I just say no!
Mary Jenkins: [sarcastically] To men or drugs?
Sandra Clark: To drugs. I tried to say no to men, but I can't kick that habit.
[Ron's mother arrives by the doorway looking shook up without anyone noticing]
Lester Jenkins: Well, if I ever catch any of those pushers around our place, it's over for them.
Pearl Shay: Well, I've got a baseball bat that will give them a downer they'll never forget.
Moderator: But the sad truth is: if it weren't for customer, there wouldn't be no pushers.
Mary Jenkins: That's right! Now how do we get the public to believe how bad this is?
Ann Davis: [voice shaking] I believe it.
[everyone turns to her]
Ann Davis: I... just found out that my son, Ronald, was dealing drugs. That mess was in my house. I just refuse to see it. He even had my 10-year-old delivering for him.
[Everyone goes silent, Lester shakes his head]
Ann Davis: Uh, and near as the police can tell, My son, Ronald, was dealing with a junkie tonight who probably didn't have enough money, so they figure he just took the drugs--after he stabbed my son to death!
[everyone gasps in shock and pity, Rose holds Tiffany close]
Ann Davis: I... I got three other kids at home I have to worry about... and I don't know what to do!
[turns to the moderator]
Ann Davis: [sobs desperately] Please! Tell me what to do!
