Freaks Page #5

Hear that crowd out there again tonight?

I bet you thought the tent was on fire.

Well, it wasn't.

Just the Rollo Brothers

panicking them again.

But then, we do it in every town.

We're so used to it,

it's getting monotonous.

You want to take a look

at our act tomorrow night.

Careful. Don't waste any of it.

- Look how it sparkles.

- Like your eyes.

Dancing, gay, like bubbles.

It's delicious.

Nice.

It comes by the finest vineyards of France.

And you sent for it especially for me?

For the most beautiful woman

in all the world.

Darling.

Hello there, baby.

Where have you been so long?

You're a funny guy, Phroso.

- Sometimes, you panic me.

- Don't I know it?

I panic the world because I use my noodle.

I think up funny gags.

I make the world laugh.

With me, clowning is an art.

Why the hat? The head cold?

- Thought you and me had a date to go out.

- I forgot all about it.

Well, I'm into this now.

I've got to go through with it.

Make it snappy, will you?

I'm all dolled up for the occasion.

Sorry, kid. Can't do it now.

We'll make it some other time.

Don't feel that way about it.

I just got this idea all of a sudden.

I've got to finish it.

- Funny gag, isn't it?

- Yeah, I'm laughing myself sick.

Come on.

Honey, come on.

Now, now.

That's much better.

That's the first time you've ever done that.

- Ain't the first time I felt like doing it.

- Yeah?

I don't mind telling you

I've wanted to do this for a long time.

- We're all set now, Venus?

- Yeah.

- All set now.

- Yeah.

Please do.

Don't you want to make me happy?

- Yes, but I don't know what to say.

- Just say yes, dear.

Will you?

- Yes.

- Violet.

What are your kicking about?

You've got a good wife. You're happy.

It's that sister-in-law of mine.

She wants to sit up half the night, reading.

- That's tough.

- Tough? You...

- Good night, darling.

- Good night, Frulein.

Cleo's gone on a diet.

- It's awfully sweet of you to say that.

- And I know Violet will be happy.

Here's Roscoe.

- Hello.

- Roscoe, this is Mr. Rogers.

Glad to meet you.

- Violet and he are engaged to be married.

- Yeah?

Yes, and you must come

to see us sometime.

Thanks.

You must come to visit...

Come to see us sometime, too.

I certainly will. Thanks.

Who is it?

It's Frieda, Hans.

May I come in?

Yes, Frieda.

Now that I'm here,

I don't know how to say it...

how to make you understand.

If you knew how I feel, Hans...

to come to you about her.

Frieda, I'm so sorry.

I don't want to hurt you,

but ich kann es nicht helfen.

If you could be happy, Hans...

I would not care.

But I am happy, Frieda.

Never in my life was I so happy.

No, Hans. You think it only.
