Chili Palmer:  You had a bad day , huh ?
Karen Flores: I spent all day crawling out of a grave . The director said that I was incapable of reaching the emotional core of the character .
Chili Palmer: What ? Well , obviously he did n't see you in " Bride of the Mutant . "
Karen Flores: You saw that _ one _ ?
Chili Palmer: When you turn to the alien mother , and you tell her that her time on earth is finished , Joan Crawford , on her best day , wishes that she had , in her day , the emotion and the intensity that you brought to that scene .
