Baby Take a Bow Page #2

Now look what you've done.

Say, I haven't begun to do things yet.

So far, you've made all the plans.

Got us a little flat,

and you've lined me up a nice job.

But don't forget, beginning next Monday

you quit and I get going.

Oh, I wish this could last for a year.

It's been so wonderful.

It's gonna be wonderful

all our life.

Won't it be nice when

we save some money...

- we get our little home up in Yonkers?

- Oh, Eddie.

- Say, you didn't know I was an artist, did you?

- No.

Look... just get

a load of our little dream house.

It's gonna be painted white all over

with green shutters and a red roof.

We're gonna have a bright yellow

picket fence with black tops.

- That sounds beautiful.

- The whole place is gonna be

splotched with honeysuckle.

- We could raise our own honey

if we bought a pair of bees.

- You're silly.

Now, right here is the chicken coop

where we grow our own breakfast.

Where's the doghouse

to put you in when you're bad?

Oh. Right here.

"X" marks the spot.

Who's that? You?

- No, that is a "g-nom-e."

- Hmm?

Uh, elf.

Well, it's made out of

terra... terra...

- Aw, plaster.

- It's marvelous, darling.

Let me show you what I picked out.

See, it has a real fireplace

and a master bedroom with twin beds.

- What's that?

- That's a nursery.

That's where you can put

your little "g-nom-e."

- You mean our little "g-nom-e."

- Maybe our little elf too.

I'll be in in a minute, dear.

That'll be all for today, Eddie.

- Yes, sir.

- By the way, I'm going

to give you that job I promised you.

As soon as your friend can handle

the car, you start at the factory.

Gee, Mr. Carson, I don't know

how to thank you.

But anyway, I wanna

thank you for Larry too.

- We'll make good for you, sir. Both of us.

- I'm sure you will.

- What is your friend's name?

- Larry Scott.

Oh, yes.

Thank you.

- Hiya, fella.

- Well, what's the verdict?

- Guilty. You start work tomorrow.

- Great.

Aw, gee thanks, Eddie. What a break after

unloading freight and washing dishes.

Did you say anything about me?

I mean, about Sing Sing?

I didn't tell him about myself,

so why should I tell him about you?

Do you think it would make

any difference if he knew?

- I don't think so, but why take a chance?

- Yeah, I guess you're right.

Well, I gotta run. I'm calling

forJane at the dancing school.

Now that you've got a job, I suppose

she'll lead you right up to the altar.

- Not if I can lead her first.

- Okay, kid, do your stuff.

- If you see Kay, tell her

I'm bringing home liver and onions.

- Okay. So long.

Hello, Mommy.

- Hello, precious.

- Mommy.

- Oh, don't let me interrupt, Jane.

- That's all right, Kay.
