LAURA. They're ornaments mostly! Most of them are little animals made out of glass, the tiniest little animals in the world. Mother calls them a glass menagerie! Here's an example of one... Oh, be careful—if you breathe, it breaks! [...] I shouldn't be partial, but he is my favorite one.
JIM. What kind of a thing is this one supposed to be?
LAURA. Haven't you noticed the single horn on his forehead?
JIM. A unicorn, huh? [...] Unicorns, aren't they extinct in the modern world?
LAURA. I know!

what can i say? this is a classic and tenn is a visionary. n-word jump scare though. also i identify too much with laura... should probably bring that up in my next therapy session :/ four and a half stars.
