The Dark At The Top Of The Stairs.

During Prohibition in Oklahoma, Rubin Flood is a successful harness and saddle salesman. He is married to Cora Flood, who he considers a demanding wife and over-protective mother. They argue about how much Cora has spent on Reenie's dress, with Cora lamenting that she always has to watch every penny. Cora accuses Rubin of having an affair with Mavis Pruitt, a local widow, then slaps Cora, then storms out of the house. In the meantime, Rubin has lost his job.
