• [Cookie is cooking steaks over open fire for the camp and guests] 

  Sam : For me, less fire.

  Cookie : Yeah, I've cooked for you Comanche before. I know how you like it.

  [Cookie carrys a pot of cooked steaks from the fire to the cook's wagon. Immigrants are lined up and the first begins taking steaks. Cookie sees immigrant helping his self] 

  Cookie : [loud and menacingly]  What the fuck do you think you're doin'? Huh? What the fuck do you think you're doing! Do you speak English? Who speaks English for this fucking circus?

  Josef : I do.

  Cookie : I'm only going to tell you this once! All right, y'all get in line, you stand in a line besides the table! You grab a plate, you grab a fork, then I give you the food! When you're done you keep the plate, you keep the fork! Go clean 'em in the creek but don't lose 'em! Lose 'em you owe me three dollars then you're eating with yer fucking hands.

  Josef : [bewildered]  What is this "fuck?"

  Cookie : [stops dead in his tracks, turns and walks deliberately with cooking fork extended]  Fuck did you just call me?

  Josef : [backing away]  Yes, what is this fuck?

  Shea Brennan : [stepping in, to Cookie]  He don't know what that word means.

  Shea Brennan : [points to John]  Neither does he. But he's about to ask her. Then Lord help you. So, maybe just don't use it. Hmm?

  Cookie : [to Shea]  It's a hard one to shake.

  Shea Brennan : Well, start shaking.

  [Josef addresses immigrants regarding the cook's rules] 

  Cookie : [begins divvying the food]  Now!

  John Dutton Sr. : What does "fuck" mean, Mama?

  Margaret Dutton : It means a spanking, and a good one, if you say it again.

  John Dutton Sr. : Is he getting a spanking?

  James Dutton : [stifling a smile]  Some form of one is probably headed his way, son.
