Harry!

Hold on.

Hey, you hoboes. Where

do you think you're going?

Get off

before I throw you off.

Come on, Willie,

take it easy, boy.

What are you doing?

Come on, we can hide in here.

Jump.

What're you doing?

Stay down there!

Hey, you,

don't try to get away.

Here I come.

Hey, Willie, where are you?

Between the porterhouse

and the short ribs.

All right, you fellows, I know

you're in here. Come on, speak up!

Where do you fellows think

you're going? California.

Well, I hate

to disappoint you. Come on.

Wait a minute. You're not

gonna throw us off, are you?

Of course not.

Oh, pardon us, gentlemen, for

dropping in on your lunchtime.

Boy, that smells good.

That's more than

we can say for you.

Boy, do they need deodorizing.

Hey, they forgot the bread.

Wait a minute. Think of me once

in a while. I'm hungry, too.

Come here.

What's the matter?

Sit down and relax.

What's the matter?

Something happen?

I want to trade bread with you. Here.

How come you give me the biggest piece?

My mother told me to always give

my friends the biggest piece.

It's not like you.

Yes.

No.

Good, though.

Taste any meat?

I don't expect to taste meat

in a loaf of bread.

Try the other end.

Both ends are alike.

Try that one over there.

What're you gonna do? I'm

gonna look for that squirrel.

What's the matter?

What happened?

Hey, can I use your gun?

No.

I win. Excuse me.

Hey, get

a load of these dice.

One has all sixes and the

other one has all fives.

Those tramps. I think they're crooked.

I don't think they were branged up right.

Whoa.

Well, what happened

to you fellows?

Well, some tramps, they stole our

money and took away our clothes from us.

Well, hop in,

I'll get you to California.

No, thanks, we're still in a hurry.

But you could loan us some money.

Well, I can only spare $20.

I'll see that you get it back.

You keep quiet.

I'll give you an IOU for it.

All righty.

Just make the IOU out

right on that piece of paper.

Well. "I owe you $30."

But, I only gave you $20.

Well, $10 is for interest.

Here you are. Sign it.

It sure is nice to do business

with fellows like you.

So, good...

Good bye?

So long.

Don't try to figure it out.

I wonder how far $20

will take us on that train.

Hold it. No tramps allowed on here.

Beat it. Wait a minute. We're not tramps.

We got money. We want to pay our

way. How far will $20 take us?

This is no passenger train. I can't

collect fares, so it's no dice.

Say, there's nothing in

your regulations that says...

we can't gamble to see whether

we ride or not, is there?

Do you know how to shoot dice? No.

Do you know how to shoot dice?

Not with his dice. They've only got
