- Let's don't quibble over technicalities.

- Man the guns and stand by for action.

- Roger!

Never mind Roger, we'll handle it ourselves.

- Why, Pearl, what are you doing here?

- Howdy, Miss Jane.

These two gentlemen bought Aaron.

Seamen Linn and Dunnevan at your service.

- You can call me Tim.

- And me Benny darling.

What do you see in me that's so attractive?

I'm awfully pleased to meet you

but I'm kind of busy right now.

They didn't believe me

about Little Aaron being a twin

so I brought them to you.

You tell them, Miss Jane.

Why, they're twins all right, and they

have the same father and mother too.

Uh, well, wouldn't you like

to order something?

I can't talk to anybody unless I'm waiting

on them and they're in an automobile

Who wants to talk,

or sit in an automobile and wait?

Let me take that.

That's awful heavy for a pretty girl.

It's not heavy,

they cook everything light here.

Allow me.

What do you serve here? Cannonballs?

Hey, you mind if I feel your muscles?

He wants his food. Could you feel my

muscles some other time? I'm kind of busy.

What's up with the doll who took my order?

You oughta be ashamed of yourself

expecting a poor little girl to wait on you.

You dropped something.

Uh, about that horse - you still got him?

He's on a vegetable farm. I couldn't

afford to support him so I rented him out.

He works for his keep and he can eat

all the vegetables he wants.

Except he only likes hay.

Who doesn't? Especially if you're a horse.

I appreciate what you're doing but can't

you meet me later when I'm through working?

- We brought Little Aaron with us.

- You brought him here?

- Yeah.

- But we don't serve horses.

We just want you to look at him

and see if he matches your horse.

He's just around here, Miss Jane.

Yes, they both have bad ankles,

poor babies.

Hey!

You, hot number, how about some chow?

What'll you have? We're all out of it.

- We're all out of that too.

- I said "hot number".

You don't look like no hot number to me.

You don't look so hot yourself,

you've lost your looks.

I don't think we'd make a go of it,

I'll send back your presents.

Oh, a wise guy, eh?

- Wanna make something out of it?

- Sure.

Brains and brawn, huh, Benny?

Hey, he can't stay there.

That space is reserved for cars. Come on!

Police!

We'd better get out of here.

How about taking us to see

Little Shamrock?

- Right now?

- Can't think of a better time.

- They're very much alike.

- Two peas in a pod.

- And they look the same too.

- What do we want with two horses?

His feet are fine, they're not sick any more.

I wonder by any chance can he run.

Of course he can,

he's got two more legs than you.
