Night Shift Page #2

This is my one night off.

I look forward to this all week.

Why don't you come to bed?

I just want to lose six more pounds.

Tonight?

Why don't you run into bed?

Maybe you'll lose pounds along the way.

All right, Chuck.

Just don't look at me.

Are the lights out?

Are the lights out?

Could you close the drapes?

Sure.

Could you just check

the apartment?

Why do I have to check

the apartment every time?

Would you, please? If you check

the apartment, then I can relax.

Nobody here.

Are you excited?

Like the French when Lindbergh landed.

Am I fat?

Am I fat?

You're a willow.

You're a reed.

You're Audrey Hepburn.

You're not fat.

That music.

What music?

That music.

What music?

It's just a little loud music.

Well, it bothers me.

You let too many things bother you.

That way you'll never

have an orgas--

Don't you say that word!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Who the hell is that?

Did you knock on that door?

Well?

Mistake.

It's a very big mistake.

Luke, who is it?

Some dwarf.

Thank you.

What's taking so long?

Will he stop playing that awful music?

- We were just getting to that--

- What's she mean, "awful music"?

Awful good.

She meant awful good.

Why don't you go back inside?

I'll be right in.

Go play with your rope.

Don't be long, now.

Sorry.

We'll keep it down, okay?

I knew I recognized you!

Last week, at the morgue.

I knew I recognized you.

I'd probably seen you

in the building when I moved in.

You live here?

But don't worry.

Luke is leaving town

with the rodeo, and I...

...hardly ever do business up here.

What kind of business are they doing?

She sells cowboy hats.

The man was in his underwear.

And cowboy underwear.

Belinda! Come on, darling.

Haul it in here, now.

I'll be right in.

I've got to go.

We'll keep it down.

See you around, neighbor.

I took care of that.

Let's go back inside.

I think I should go home.

Why? They said they'll keep it down.

When did you get dressed?

It wasn't going to be any good

tonight anyway. I feel so guilty!

I cheated today.

- You're kidding.

- I had a Nestle's Crunch bar.

Food.

I feel like dirt.

I am really sorry.

No one else would be

this patient with me.

I'll see you next Sunday.

Food came.

You owe me three dollars.

I'm really getting good

at remembering these cards.

Twenty-one.

Boy, I tell you...

...this weekend is it.

This weekend,

I go to Atlantic City...

...and I do nothing but play blackjack

straight through.

I won't even get a room,

I'll just get those Wash 'N Drys.

You know? Did I tell you

I thought of them first?

Only they already had them.

Twenty-one.

What's the matter?

I ordered egg salad

and they sent me tuna fish.
