The WOMAN in TROUBLE
Some posters seem to think the reason why INLAND EMPIRE also includes the description:
A WOMAN in TROUBLE
on the DVD cover means she feels GUILTY for having betrayed her husband.
But when we look at the TRANSCRIPTS ...
PLEASE NOTE the way in which we find NO EVIDENCE whatsoever that the WOMAN in TROUBLE feels GUILTY about CHEATING on her MATE:
SUE
Seen a guy come at me with a crowbar once. Guess he figured I was two-timing him. I was coming home, we were shacked up at the time. He was waiting for me in the half-light. Waiting for me to come home. Guess he had worked himself into some kind of frenzy.
I open the fking door ... and I see this fking shape burst out of the chair…
and a crowbar going up. I scream, and turn. Fking crowbar comes down, smashing in that fking door, cheap piece of *beep* It just splinters into a thousand pieces, like it was glass, *beep* flying everywhere.
I don’t take this kind of behavior. I see what this fker was up to.
BAM!
I kick him in the nuts so hard he go crawling up inside his brain for a refuge.
He goes down like a two dollar whore.
Crying and *beep* telling me he’s done nothing but love me and *beep*
MR. K
Were you in fact seeing another man?
SUE
I screwed a couple guys for drinks, no big deal.
This one guy was kinda cute. Fker had a dick like a rhinoceros. He’d fk the $hit out of you, I tell you what. He’d buy me a couple of drinks after. We’d talk, he’d tell me about the town he grew up in. All the little girls he fked.
There was a chemical factory in this town, and he’d tell me it was putting so much $hit in the air you couldn’t think straight. It got to a lot of the people. There was a lot of crazy $hit going on there. People having weird dreams, seeing things that wasn’t there. This one time, this one little girl. She was staring off at something one time. Starts screaming. The people hanging round come to her and ask what’s wrong, and uh, she says she sees the end of the world. All fire and smoke and blood running. You know, like they say, the wailing and the gnashing of the teeth.
So NOT only does this WOMAN feel NO GUILT whatsoever for having SCREWED A COUPLE of GUYS for DRINKS ...
and tell MR. K that IT WAS NO BIG DEAL ...
but she also BRAGS about what a HUGE PENIS this other guy has ...
and explains how this MAN with HUGE BODY PART would also ACTUALLY SPEND TIME with her ...
and TELL HER STORIES ...
which is probably also NOT something the other man she lives with does ...
because we also SEE the way he IGNORES HER most of the time whenever
we see her LIVING inside of SMITHY'S HOUSE.
Therefore, when someone claims this is a story about THE GUILT a WOMAN FEELS over having CHEATED on her MATE ...
and they also say that's the reason WHY they think she's a WOMAN in TROUBLE ...
this is also NOT a PERSON who PAYS CLOSE ENOUGH ATTENTION to the STORY or to what the WOMAN in TROUBLE tells MR. K.
