Candy has little respect for Curley's wife and speaks about her accordingly. He is very critical and demeaning.

Well, I tell ya what- Curley says he's keepin' that hand soft for his wife."

George studied the cards absorbedly. "That's a dirty thing to tell around," he said.

I seen her give Slim the eye. Curley never seen it. An' I seen her give Carlson the eye."

"Well, I think Curley's married... a tart."
