Four Daughters Page #4

---

Nothing like a little home-made

blackberry to warm you up a bit.

That's what I always say.

I made it myself.

Would you like to sit down?

Thank you.

Now if you will excuse me, I will

have to go and attend to the dinner.

A rosebud garden of girls.

You're quite a poet.

That isn't original with me.

I .. I must have read that somewhere.

Well, the fellow who wrote it must

have certainly seen this family.

Come along, come along.

Dinner is all ready.

We've got duck.

I always say there is nothing like

a good, home-cooked dinner.

I think your home is charming.

Thanks. You sit here. You get

a nice view of the kitchen.

Thank you.

Oh Mr Crowley, I just can't get over it.

Thea cooked the dinner, every inch

of it herself. And just look at her.

She's as fresh and beautiful as if

she'd just stepped out of a band-box.

Yes, she is.

Beautiful.

May I have your gloves?

Yes .. oh, my gloves.

The duck smells delicious.

We thank thee Lord for the bounty we are

about to receive and ask thy blessing.

Oh .. oh!

What is it, aunt Etta?

You might as well face the situation.

Ann forgot to light the

oven under the duck.

For the sandwiches we

are about to receive ..

We thank thee oh Lord

and ask for thy blessing.

I wish I could stop lying to my diary.

You saved a little boy from

being run over today.

No, but it makes good reading.

That sounds like Thea,

It is.

I'm dying to know what's happened.

So am I.

Thea came home.

Hey ladies, wake up!

Emma, how do you spell "intoxicated"?

I.N.T.O.X.I.C.A.T.E.D.

Emma, Anne!

For heaven's sake, she'll

wake up the whole family.

I've got something to tell you.

I've got something to tell you.

What?

Whats happened?

It has happened.

Tomorrow at Tiffany's. A ring.

It must be a 100 carats.

For Pete's sake Thea, what

happened? What did he say?

Well, I was looking so beautiful

in Emma's dress. Yes.

And your hat .. and your coat.

Well, what did he say?

"Thea" he said .. oh,

I go to phone him ..

What did Ben say?

He said .. all I am,

all I ever hoped to be ..

Oh, I'll tell you later.

Ask Ben if he minds being a

bigamist. I want a ring, too.

Aunt Etta!

Aunt Etta.

Emma.

Yes?

Do you think she really loves him?

She's going to marry him.

I mean, do you think she loves

him as much as she loves us?

Well, it's a different

kind of love, Ann.

You mean a stranger could come here and

mean more to me than Dad or aunt Etta?

More than my own sisters? More than you?

Oh, you're certainly

not very worldly-wise.

Oh, Ann.

Emma.

Don't lets get married, ever.

Let Thea and Kay if they

want to, but not us.

We'll grow old together.

Beautifully, gracefully.

Wait and see. We'll both
