A Very Merry Toy Store Page #2

---

- Have a nice evening.

- Good evening, Pam.

- Hello, Joe.

- My, what do we have here?

Three turkey specials,

one roast beef and gravy.

Sounds good to me.

Francine, we're going to need

four slices of pecan pie.

- Coming right up.

- Oh, Joe, we didn't

order the pie.

- Compliments of the chef, me.

- Oh, you don't

have to do that.

- I changed the recipe.

I want to hear what you think.

Unless, of course,

you hate it.

Then don't tell me.

- That's not likely.

Thank you very much.

- Let me ask you a question.

Are you still giving those

piano lessons

out of your house?

- Every day. Why?

- You got room for

another student?

- Grandchild?

- Not quite.

This one is 68 years old,

but he's very eager

to learn.

What do you think?

Am I too late?

- Well, it's never too late.

But why the sudden interest?

- Uh, it's my niece.

- Your niece.

- Yeah, my niece Tilly,

actually.

She's getting married

in six weeks down in Baltimore.

I'd like to be able to play the

Wedding March at her ceremony.

- Six weeks?

Doesn't leave us

much time, does it?

- Is it impossible?

- Not if you work hard.

- So that means

it's impossible.

- [laughs]

- I was afraid of that.

Kidding.

When do we start?

- Call me.

Thanks, Francine.

- Say hi to Randy for me.

- All right, darling.

- Bye.

- Good night, you two.

- Bye-bye.

- I will call you.

- Okay.

- Hello, house.

- Mm, smells good.

- Well, let's hope

it tastes good too,

because this will be our last

takeout for a while.

- Listen, sis,

if money's a problem,

I just got invited to a poker

game at Lou Gallano's place.

- No, Randy. No more poker,

please. I beg you.

- How come?

- Um, because...

I forgot the most delicate way

to say this. You stink at it.

- Connie, if I am

so bad at poker,

how come everybody in town

wants to play it with me?

- Here we go.

- Pecan pie? Mom!

- He didn't

charge us for it.

- Small mercies.

- Still worried

about your loan payment?

- Oh, no more than Dorothy was

worried about the Wicked Witch.

- Connie, level with me.

- Well, if business

stays brisk

and the bank extends

my loan deadline,

then we'll be okay.

But it wouldn't hurt

if DiNova's would

pull up stakes and move

to Alaska this month.

But I'm not

counting on that.

Teej, dinner.

Turn of the TV

and go wash your hands.

- Hey, kids, what store

has all your favorite toys

for Christmas this year?

- Roy's!

- I can't hear you.

- Roy's!

- Still can't hear you.

- Honey, what...?

- Roy's!

- Why are you whispering?

- You have your earmuffs on.

- Oh. I knew that.

- [all laugh]
