Ray - Unexpected News Amidst Tension and Conflict
Ray Charles:
You know what they're saying about me? Said I lost something. Said I've gone middle-of-the-road. They might as well say the same thing about you. You were the soul of this band, now every time you're around, you're just drunk. The drunk soul of a blind junkie. What a lovely couple. Why don't you just get outta here?
Margie Hendricks:
I ain't drunk, Ray. I'm pregnant. Yeah, that's right. I'm having your baby.
