A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Page #3

---

all those things she said.

Actually, she really likes you.

I don't feel bad for myself.

I just feel bad

because I ruined everyone's Thanksgiving.

But Thanksgiving is more

than eating, Chuck.

You heard what Linus was saying

out there.

Those early pilgrims were thankful

for what had happened to them.

And we should be thankful too.

We should just be thankful

for being together.

I think that's what they mean

by "Thanksgiving," Charlie Brown.

- Psst. Come here.

- See you later, Charles.

Charles?

He's all yours, Priscilla.

Priscilla?

Priscilla?

- Apologies accepted, Chuck old boy?

- Sure.

There's enough problems

in the world already, Chuck...

...without

these stupid misunderstandings.

Let's not play lovers' games, Chuck.

I agree.

You're holding my hand, Chuck.

You sly dog.

[CLOCK CHIMlNG]

Good grief, it's 4:00.

We're supposed to be

at Grandmother's house...

...for Thanksgiving by 4:30.

I better talk to her

and explain my dilemma.

Hello? Grandma?

This is Chuck. I mean, Charlie Brown.

We're gonna be a little late.

You see, I invited a few friends over

and they're still here.

[WOMAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY

O VER PHONE]

Well, it's just Linus

and a girl named Marcie...

...and a girl named Peppermint Patty...

She's a great baseball player.

... and a boy named Franklin.

[WOMAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY

O VER PHONE]

No, ma'am, they haven't eaten.

As a matter of fact,

they've let me know that...

...in no uncertain terms.

[WOMAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY

O VER PHONE]

What? You mean it?

Hey, Peppermint Patty, great news.

We're all invited to Charlie Brown's

grandmother's for Thanksgiving dinner.

[CHEERING]

Isn't there an old song that goes:

"Over the hills and through the woods

to Grandmother's house we go"?

Sure, only this is the way it goes:

[SINGING "O VER THE RIVER

AND THROUGH THE WOODS"]

Well, there's only one thing

wrong with that.

What's that, Charlie Brown?

My grandmother lives in a condominium.
