A Guy Named Joe Page #6

Pestered with you

For a while,

So let's drink

To that.

Good idea. May be your

Last before you go.

Before I go where?

Scotland.

Scotland?

That's reconnaissance.

You can't do that

To me, nails.

Reconnaissance

Is important.

There's nothing to do there.

It's like being retired.

There is an element

Of rest in it.

You've been trying to do

This to me for a long time.

You won't get

Away with it.

I'll go over your head

To general sloan.

This is funny.

Because here's an order

Signed by general sloan

That says you are

Going to scotland.

Nails, you can't

Do this to Pete.

We've been flying

Together ever since-

Isn't this touching?

And really in the best

Tradition of the air force.

Just so you don't feel

You've been forgotten, al,

The general doesn't want any

Broken hearts in the outfit.

Air transport'll have

A ship waiting at 5 a.m.

O.k.

We'll be there.

That's awfully good

Of you, major.

Good night.

Oh, uh...

And thanks for

The drink.

He won't get away

With this.

Sometimes I wonder who he's

Fighting, us or the nazis.

He's just like all the rest

Of these armchair pilots.

He hasn't flown anything faster

Than a bathtub for 30 years.

He's afraid to walk upstairs without

A parachute strapped to his back.

Well, I'm going to beat

This rap.

I'll beat it if I

Have to go to the-

Say...

Look at that!

That's o.k.

You like it?

Dorinda,

You're as pretty as

A pair of

Yellow shoes.

Thanks, al.

And you, Pete, my boy?

Gosh.

Have a drink.

I want to dance.

Come on. Let's dance.

It's a lovely dress, Pete.

Yeah, it's pretty.

Makes me realize

You're a girl

Instead of

A sky-flying cowboy.

I feel like a girl,

Too.

I feel like

My 16th birthday

And the time I graduated

From high school

And the first time I flew

Solo all wrapped up in one.

Do you?

That's a pretty

Large order.

Yeah.

How do you feel?

I feel fine.

Did you pick out this

Dress all by yourself?

What? Me pick out

A dress?

Are you crazy?

Ha ha. Did they

Model it for you?

The girls?

No!

I wish I'd been there.

Why, what's so

Funny about it?

Oh, nothing, I suppose.

Pete.

Hmm.

How'd you know what size shoes to get?

Do you want to

Dance or talk?

I wanna bite

Your ear.

Let me bite your ear.

Stop that.

People are looking.

Let's just dance.

Come on.

You know that guy?

Pete, old man, I never

Saw him before in my life.

Did you smile

At him?

I think I did. Yes.

Yes, I did.

Why?

Because

I'm so happy.

That was a pretty

Stupid thing to do.

Why, Pete,

You're jealous.

I am not jealous.

Don't want you giving the

Guy the wrong impression.

Oh. Pete.

Hmm.

Did I ever give you

The wrong impression?

Why?

Well... Don't watch me
