Bonnie and Clyde Scene 4 Summary

  • Clyde continues to charm Bonnie as they eat burgers.
  • He seems to be able to understand just about everything about her just by looking at her: he knows that she was born into a big family and that she dropped out of school because she was so much smarter than everyone else.
  • He's even is able to figure out that, in her mid-teens, there was a guy who she briefly considered marrying.
  • "So then you got you your job in the café, and now you wake up every morning and you hate it. […] And you go on home and you sit in your room and you think when and how am I ever going to get away from this? And now you know."
  • She's super-impressed by this.
  • He orders her to change her hair (he's bossy like that) and then tells her she's "a knockout."
  • They leave the burger joint, and Clyde steals a stylish convertible for them to drive away in.
