The Happiest Millionaire Page #3

? Archie Baxter

came here twice?

? First time out,

he acted nice?

? Romance was in the air?

? Oh, they made a lovely pair?

Beautiful.

? Second date, it was a dance?

? He grabbed her tight,

this was his chance?

? Cordy only bruised

that sport?

? Father settled it

out of court?

So...

? Watch your footwork?

? Better learn

to bob and weave?

? Sister Cordy's

got dynamite up her sleeve?

? What a fake?

? Dynamite up her sleeve?

? What an uppercut?

? Dynamite up her sleeve?

Uh-oh.

- Charlie.

- Charlie?

- Hey, Charlie, wake up.

- Are you hurt?

Tony? Livingston?

Come on, it's time

for Bible class.

What happened?

He dropped his left.

Oh.

You better get some ice.

And get some beefsteak.

Charlie?

Charlie!

Well, don't you look pretty!

Papa, how could you?

How could I what?

It's no wonder

I never have any callers.

- Oh, now, wait a minute.

- People are afraid to come here.

I didn't hurt the young sap.

Sap?

Charlie Taylor's only

the most popular boy in town.

Oh, here he comes.

Charlie, are you all right?

Sure, he's all right.

Come on, Charlie.

- Thataboy.

- I'm so sorry, Charlie.

There's no serious damage.

He'll have a black eye

for a couple of days.

- Ooh!

- Can I get you something?

I sent for some raw meat.

How about a cold drink, Charlie?

Oh!

Oh, thank you.

Charlie, why don't you sit

in this comfortable chair?

And I'll see if

I can get you some iced tea.

Or would you like

a piece of chocolate cake?

Charlie!

Gee, we're sorry.

We didn't mean to do it.

We told him

to keep his guard up.

You see, Cordy, I had

nothing to do with it.

Didn't you?

Like father, like son.

You're all three the same.

Always having your sport

no matter what.

Always ready for a fight.

Oh, Cordy, we didn't...

Don't touch me.

I'll flatten you!

Cordy.

Cordy, wait.

Blast it!

? Oh,

Miss Cordelia Drexel Biddle?

? I thought I knew you well?

? But now,

Miss Cordelia Drexel Biddle?

? I just can't tell?

? Are you valentine candy

or bo xing gloves??

? Lately you seem

very strange?

? What in the world's

coming over you??

? Everything's starting

to change?

? Are you sonnets by Shelley

or Rover Boys??

? Once any answer would do?

? Why are you

suddenly wondering?

? Which kind of someone

are you??

? Is a boy meant to spar with

or gaze at a star with??

? Should you kiss him

or blacken his eye??

? Now, if he buys you roses?

? A right to the nose is really

not quite the proper reply?

? You're so lost

in the middle of in-between?

? Is your destiny canvas

or crepe de Chine??

? Will you someday be someone

that somebody loves??

? Are you valentine candy

or...?

? Bo xing gloves??
