There you are. Now it's bound

to be under one of them.

There's one, there's two,

and there's three.

Now we'll shuffle them just a

little bit, just to confuse you.

And take your choice.

Now wait, I show you.

Here, I bet you two dollars.

Two dollars. Covered.

I always do that

for good luck.

Now wait. I show you.

Now watch.

Ah, you see, Gussie, the

hand is faster than the eye.

Better luck next time.

Oh, here. Who wants to buy

my mother-in-law's stocking?

Gus!

Oh, there you are. What do you

mean by spending my money?

But, Mama, I'm going

to give you half.

Give me my money.

Give it to her.

Hurry UP-

Give me the rest of it.

Why, madam,

that's my own money.

That's my money.

No, no, Mama.

That's his money.

Captain, I demand that

that man give me my money.

Hand it over.

See, Mama? Didn't I

tell you we would win?

Why, you big loafer! Get out of here!

Spending my life's earnings!

Now, Thorpe,

you get off of my boat.

If you set foot on it again,

I'll put you in irons

and land you at St. Charles

on my way back.

Davey, I think I better

go find Mrs. Riggs,

that lady Captain Hollister

told us about.

Come on, Honey Girl.

No. I want to stay here with

Davey and watch them unload.

Well, you take good

care of her, Davey.

I will.

I'll be right back,

Honey Girl.

It's a nice place, ain't it, Mama?

It's terrible!

Look at the mud!

Well, listen, Mama, I gonna

go see if I can buy a horse.

Come on. Come on.

I carry you over there.

I don't want you to get your feet wet.

That's it. Here we go.

Now you stay there.

I bring Abbie over.

Come on, Abbie. I don't want you

to get your shoes all muddy.

That's it.

Come on. Here we go.

Oh, stop laughing,

will you, Abbie?

That's it. Now you wait here.

I bring Mama.

Come on, Mama.

I take you over, Mama.

Come on, Mama.

Come on, Mama. It's...

Here! What are

you trying to do?

But, Mama,

I want to carry you across

so you won't

get your feet wet.

You? I'll cross

my own mud.

All right then, Mama, but let me help you.

That's it, Mama. Come on now.

Okay, step on that board, Mama.

That's it, Mama.

Ohh!

Say, I come right back.

Ohh! Oh, Gus!

Uh, Mrs. Riggs?

Yes, miss. That's me.

Well, I'm Miss Cameron. Captain

Hollister told me to see you.

Friend of

Captain Hollister?

Yes, lam.

Come right on in.

Oh, thank you.

Now don't tear your pretty

dress on them logs.

Oh, it's nice and cool

Now you sit down,

make yourself easy,

and I'll brew
