can hardly understand me anymore.

- Harmony?

- Harmony, Texas.

- And you probably never heard of it.

- No.

Well, it's not very big.

A feller once said it's so small

that the city-limit signs are back to back.

- That's very funny.

- We laugh about it quite a bit too.

Of course,

nobody talks to that feller anymore.

We're kind of proud of Harmony.

Do you work in Hollywood?

Well, I'm in the movie business.

Really? What do you do?

Get killed, mostly. I'm a stuntman.

You silly. 204, here I am.

Here. Allow me.

Well, hello there.

Isn't this a swinging place?

- Beg your pardon, ma'am?

- Oh, no need to apologize.

Just step right in, sonny.

I appreciate the thought, ma'am,

but this here's your roommate.

- Miss Gail Lewis.

- Oh.

Hi, Gail. Amanda North.

Hi.

- Thanks, Stretch.

- Sure.

See you later, huh?

Yep.

Oh, what a rotten shame.

That cowboy yours?

Well, I'll have to think about it.

You mean, you've got a choice?

Yes, sort of.

- Oh, well, that figures.

- Hm?

Well, look at you.

You're just what they want.

Where's your fella?

That's what I keep shouting.

Where's my fella?

"Forget it!"

Come in.

This is Boom-Boom.

It bites, hits, spits and swears.

Oh, but you're only to hit back

in self-defense.

Now, shake hands and come out fighting.

My last sitter had a nervous breakdown.

Oh?

Sitter?

Well, it was the only way I could

swing the price of the room, you know?

Hey, give me that.

Stop! Or I'll disintegrate you.

Give that back.

Okay.

Let's be friends.

You win.

No hard feelings, huh?

No.

Hey, take it easy. I'm just a kid.

Never tangle with a girl

who knows judo, buster.

Wow! Will you teach me judo?

Are you gonna behave yourself?

For you, I guess I'll have to.

And what about me?

You haven't got a chance.

For this, I have to pass up a lunch date

at the Riviera.

Oh, go on, keep your date.

I'll watch the evil one.

No, I couldn't let you do that.

Oh, forget it. I've got a motive.

I'm not gonna hook a man

till all you dreamboats are taken.

- Really? You'll do it?

- Mm-hm.

Thanks. You're a doll.

Spread the word around.

Okay.

Ugh.

Let's go, Boom-Boom.

What do you do for kicks?

Come on down to my room

and I'll show you my model trains.

Are you sure you're only 9 years old?

Let's go.

Look, fellas.

Let's make a run for it.

- Okay, okay, hold it.

Hold it.

All right, come on back, you guys.

No use you guys overdoing it.

It's all right.

It's only 10 blocks from the bus depot.

Hey, how about a few times

around the motel before we check in?

No, no, no.

No, you guys look like

you've had enough.

In fact, you're starting to look

kind of fuzzy.

- You okay, coach?

- Oh, great.
