Interview with Mrs Dubose:

GH: Mrs Dubose,thank you for accepting this invitation for an interview...
Mrs Dubose:STOP!You negro,don't talk to me!
GH: I'm sorry Mrs Dubose,I beg your pardon?
Mrs Dubose:I don't talk to negroes like you!
GH: I think you are mistaken.My skin is tanned,not black.I canoe frequently.As such,I am tanned.Can we get on with the interview?
Mrs Dubose:*Suspicious look*Sure.
GH: The first question I want to ask.What do you think of blacks?
Mrs Dubose:*Outburst*DON'T TALK ABOUT THEM!They are immoral beings,liars,liars,lust after us white women,and won't even let a young 18-year-old girl off!Blacks are the immoral beings of the society,no compassion,no...
GH: Mrs Dubose,you can stop now.We get the gist of it.Moving on.I would like to ask,what do you think of Atticus?
Mrs Dubose:Atticus?Oh,Atticus.He's a good man.A very good man.Pity he's a negro-lover,if not,he would be the best person alive on Earth.
GH: Mrs Dubose,what do you think of Jem?
Mrs Dubose:Jem,that little kid that read to me.Well,he's a good person at heart,but he's not that mature yet.What he doesn't know is that I like him very much actually.He thinks I hate him to the bone,and that's why I asked him to read to me.No,no.I like him.Him,Atticus,Scout and a few others are the only ones I will allow into my house,and see me in this...this state.
GH: Mrs Dubose,that was a very touching story.The next question would be: How did you get addicted to morphine?
Mrs Dubose:It was my husband.At that time,I annoyed him every single moment of the day.Then,he gave me this "sweet",and I drank it.I got addicted to morphine as a result.But...*coughs*
Daughter: Interviewer,clear out now!Your time is up!Please leave!

As such,due to Mrs Dubose's morphine addiction,the interview could not be continued. However,I hope that you have a better insight to Mrs Dubose now.
