What do you think

we'd better do, Ollie?

I expected that.

Every time you get us into a mess...

...you come to me expecting me

to get us out of it.

Well, it wasn't my fault.

What do you mean,

it wasn't your fault?

If you hadn't been so money-mad,

we wouldn't be here.

There we were,

comfortably settled in jail...

...with one more week to serve.

And you had to talk me

into breaking out...

...just to come on this wild-goose chase

of yours.

Well, I guess we'll have to stow

our way back home again.

Go to the jail and tell the warden we're

sorry for the trouble we put him to...

...and maybe we'll get our old cell back.

- Be more comfortable to be there than...

- Why, if we went back there...

...that warden would give us life.

For escaping.

Well, we could go to another jail

where the warden didn't know us.

Serve our week

and nobody would be any the wiser.

Pay our debt to society and then

we wouldn't have to worry a bit...

Why, if we went to any jail

in that state...

...the warden would give us life.

In fact, he'd hang us.

We could go to another state.

You know what we could do?

We could go way, way out west...

...where they'd never find us.

Out west where?

Oh, Philadelphia, Jersey Ci...

Any of those places where

they have no exposition laws.

What do you mean,

"no exposition laws"?

Well, if the police found out

where we were...

...they could come and get us

if we didn't want them to...

If we... If they knew.

That's a very, very, very good idea.

Just as soon as my pants are dry,

we'll formulate...

...our plans.

Step aside.

That's the only pair of pants

I've got in the world.

Alan!

Come, lass. Come, lass.

Now, hurry, hurry, hurry.

I don't want to. Alan!

- Good morning, Mr. McLaurel.

- Good morning, Mrs. Bickerdike.

Where is Mr. Hardy? I haven't seen him

in the past three weeks.

- Oh, he's awful sick.

- Is that a fact?

Hoot, ma'am. You know, the day he fell

in the water, he got an awful cold...

...and it turned into pneumatics.

- Is he very sick?

- You're darn hooting he's sick.

The only thing he can keep on

his stomach is a hot-water bottle.

- My, my, what a predicament.

- Yeah, I think he's got that too.

Well, give him my respects.

- I surely will.

- And also give him this.

It's the bill for three weeks' rent.

I'm getting very impatient waiting

for this estate to get cleared up.

We were talking about that

this morning. I'll see...

- Who's there?

- It's me.

- Come in.

- Are you dressed?

Come in.

Where have you been?

The landlady gave me this.

It's the bill for three weeks' rent.

There are more important things

than this. Did you get me any pants?

- No, but I got something to eat.
