Small Town Girl Page #2

Synopsis: Kay is a girl living in a small rural town whose life is just too dull and repetitious to bear. One night, she meets young, handsome, and rich Bob Dakin, who asks her for directions while drunk and then proceeds to take her out on a night on the town. Kay likes the stranger, and when the drunken Bob decides that they should get married, Kay hesitates little before consenting. The morning after the affair, Bob, once sober, regrets his mistake. His strict and upright parents, however, insist that the young couple pretend marriage for 6 months before divorcing, in order to avoid bad publicity. Bob resents Kay for standing in the way of him and his fiancée, Priscilla, but Kay still hopes that he'd have a change of heart.

Well, you say the

darnedest things sometimes.

Hi, herb.

You keeping your chin up?

Sure am, Elmer.

Get going.

Kay, what are you doing tonight?

Well, I think I'll have

to help at the store.

Oh, I thought we might take a drive

Out toward Winsted.

That is, if you want to.

Oh, it's too cold.

Well, uh, if you're

gonna be home tonight,

I thought I'd drop around after supper.

That is, if you want me to.

Oh, of course, Elmer. Any time.

You're not company.

Well, I've got to mail these letters.

Now, wait a minute, Kay.

Listen.

You know I want to be more than that.

Every-Every time I look at you,

My heart just goes

- Just goes pop!

I'm sorry.

It's all right.

I'll see you tonight.

I, uh, didn't think what I was doing.

Oh, it's all right, Elmer.

I'll see you after supper.

All right.

Good-Bye.

Another potato, Wilbur?

I said-

Another potato.

Kay?

No, thanks.

Better put George's plate in the oven.

It will get cold.

Come, sweet. Eat some potato for mama.

Make baby grow.

No.

You and I've seen enough

potatoes for one day,

Haven't we, sweetie?

Yes.

Kay doesn't seem like herself tonight.

She didn't eat a thing.

I suppose it's hard on

her seeing all those kids

Having so much fun.

June's getting to look

more like George every day.

Kay thinks she looks like me.

Bring in the pudding, Kay.

I say, bring in the pudding.

Now, come, sweet,

Nice bread and gravy.

Eat it for mama.

No.

Oh, sweetness, June.

When all together we cheer her name

When we cheer her with heart and soul

Your father's ready

for his pudding, Kay.

I say, your father's

ready for his pudding.

I'm coming.

June's getting more

like George every day.

Do you think so, papa?

Kay thinks she looks like me.

What is the pudding, mama.

Maybe the baby can have some.

Where have you been all these years?

Saturday, rice pudding.

Sunday, snow pudding.

Monday, raisin pudding.

Oh, there's George. I'll get his dinner.

No, never mind. I'll get it.

Here, pop.

Well, for the life of me,

I can't see what folks see in football,

Riding 3 hours on a cold day,

Sitting on a cold plank,

Watching them kick a ball around.

Not my idea of fun.

Well, how's my little angel?

Ohh!

No, Junie, eat your pudding.

It's good for little girl.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk.

She's more like you every day, George.

Kay says she looks like Emily.

Here's your dinner.

Elmer will be right over.

He's at the barber shop

getting all fixed up.

I think I'll help you

at the store tonight.

No, you run along someplace with Elmer.

I'll manage.

Take a ride in his new ford.

I say, take a ride in his car.

Well, I can't see it,

Riding 3 hours both ways on a cold day,

Sitting on a cold plank...
