Re: Penny's place: Clem & Penny & Frannie & bacon & gelato & toe splints
[Clementine took it for a real good thing, the fact that Penny didn't go diving after that phone any.] Frannie always did have good sense.
[She finished her doctoring, and she set her medkit aside and waited to see if Penny wanted her to go on about the family her man was dating himself into.] Honey, loving ain't ever simple. Real short version is my sister, Chloe, over on my daddy's side, and was engaged to that girl's man back in college. Chloe wanted him back, and the girl wasn't real inclined to cooperate. I say the girl, because Neil Donovan, he's malleable as putty. Turned into this big old feud that ended with folks getting shot and stabbed all the Hell over. Her kin, my kin, Sam, Neil. I even got myself run over by a Hummer, and it was real ugly. Chloe ended up winning some in her own way. Got him disinherited, on account of the girl having a real long criminal record for drugging and prostitution. Chloe never did win him back, though. [She motioned toward next door.] Shane? Man living in sin with Graham over yonder, he's one of them.
