Observations- Dry grass. Rundown town. Unstable Wife. Horrible neighbors. Plain. Drug dealers. trailer parks. Woman working at grocery store. Ray working in a tollbooth in a parking garage.Unfulfilling life. Repeats "don't forget a mint". Turtle eating bright green lettuce. "American Dream". Edward wants to lose his virginity desperately. Ray leaves his wife
Inferences- Ray repeats "don't forget a mint" could mean improve your day. Drug dealers have power and control everyone. Green lettuce means "life". Nora is thin, unstable and cannot go out outside. Edward wants to be a man. Nora confesses that Edward is not his son.
