Not Wanted Page #4

Synopsis: Twentyish Sally Kelton is unhappy at home and in the drab town in which she lives, until she meets roving musician Steve Ryan. Sally falls for Steve, but to Steve, she's just another fling before he heads to another town. Sally decides to "pull up stakes" and heads on a bus to Steve's next stop. On the road, she meets Drew Baxter, owner of a gaseteria in the town where she's heading. Drew sets Sally up with a room at a local boarding house and a job at his business. Try as he might, Drew can't win Sally's heart from Steve, who has remained indifferent to Sally since her arrival. When Steve heads off to South America, Sally is even more despondent--especially after she learns that she's pregnant with his child.

What's the money situation.

I can let you have a little.

Thanks Steve.

I'll be fine.

I guess I'd better...

go now.

What's the phone number where you're

staying? I'll remember it.

Chester 1-3-4-3.

Chester 1-3-4-3.

It's a hall phone. So, the

landlady will answer.

Hmm hmm.

Well.

I'll be running along.

You will call, won't you Steve?

What do you think?

Goodbye Steve.

So long, honey.

Well, hullo!

What will you have? Regular or rental?

Well, I thought I'd just drop

by and say hello.

Well, come on while I dump

these. We'll have a Coke,

Here. Here is a chair.

Hey, this is a wonderful surprise.

You know, I never expected to

clap eyes on you again.

Get a little sleep?

Yeah.

Here.

Hey, come on now.

Nothing's that bad...

Oh Sally...

Here, blow hard a couple of times.

You'll feel like a new person.

Thanks.

That's the stuff.

Drew.

I guess I need a job.

I hate to bother you, but ..

Well, there isn't anyone else

I can turn to.

What's the matter?

Relatives give you the brush?

Yeah, I guess you'd call it that.

Hey. I've got an idea!

One of the kids here is

getting married next week.

That makes us short a girl.

How about taking a

crack at it?

That sounds wonderful but ..

Well, I don't know anything

about that kind of thing.

You don't have to.

Look pretty ..

...smile when they hand

you the dough ..

...be sure you give the right change.

And you're in.

And have dinner with me tonight.

Gee.

Drew, I don't know how to

thank you, but.

Well, I'm going to try awfully hard.

That's all settled then.

You start Wednesday.

But tonight you got to eat so.

Well, how about my invitation?

Well ..

I'm kind of tired tonight. I think

I'll go home and take it easy.

You understand, don't you?

That's the story of my life, honey.

I always understand.

But, look I'm the boss ..

...and you're liable to lose your job.

Ah but.....

You're such a nice girl.

I'll let it go this time.

Okay?

Drink.

Yeah? Who do you want?

Is it for me Mrs. Nigh?

No... He left about a month ago.

You're welcome.

They're all alike, honey.

Never call when you want them to.

Hello.....

Granada Club?

May I speak to Steve Ryan please.

Tell him it's "Miss Kelton" calling.

Hello! Steve!

What?

Oh. He's left already?

No.....

No message.

Thanks.

Hey, I want to have a big discussion

with you during lunch-hour.

Sure Drew ..

Honey, am I tired.

Brother, this is one day I'll really

be glad to see over.

Here. Double-egg.

Good for you.

You know ..

What I wanted to talk to you about was

last Saturday night you gave me the brush.

This Saturday night, you're not

going to get away with it.

Wake up! And go on and eat.
