The Bank Dick Page #4

Hey, you!

"Of loudmouthed McNasty,

alias the Wildcat.

Drawing his revolver...

which he carries

for such emergencies,

he struck McNasty... "

You see, putting things like that

on motorcars is what kills people.

Get outta there!

"For such emergencies... "

The Lompoc Picayune Intelligencer

just got out a special edition...

telling how I apprehended

them two crooks.

For heaven's sake, can't you see

we're playing an interesting game?

There was an article in there telling

how I apprehended a couple of crooks...

who stole $2 million

from Skinner's Lompoc Bank.

You would.

Skinner's Lompoc Bank.

Them's the shylocks that's got

the mortgage on this house, ain't they?

Haunting you from morning till night.

The old pinchpennies!

Why don't you move...

I'm sorry they didn't

get away with the bank.

Leave it to him.

He would do a thing like that.

I think I'll go up

to my room for a moment.

They want me to come down to the bank

to get a reward or job or something.

I'll go down

in the morning.

Don't you smoke

up in your room.

Oh! No, I won't, dear.

What am I doing?

- Hello!

- Hello, honey.

- That was a great stunt your father pulled today.

- Huh?

Two crooks got in the bank

and stole $25,000.

- I never knew your father had so much intestinal fortitude.

- Are you kiddin'?

- No!

- Come on. Let's talk about us.

- Your father took his pistol and hit one of the fellas.

- He hasn't got a pistol.

The paper said your father took a

double-edged assegai from one of the fellas.

- A what's-a-gai?

- An assegai. A sword!

- Where did the newspapers get the story?

- From your father.

He admitted the whole thing

to the police.

Let's talk about us, Og.

Well, I get my bonus pretty soon.

I've already picked out

your engagement ring.

Oh... oh, Oggie.

Oh, golly!

Mmm!

Shucks.

I have an appointment with Mr. Skinner,

president of the bank.

- Step to one side, please.

- Yes.

Thank you, Miss Carroll.

I had an appointment

with Mr. Skinner, the...

Please, just to one side.

Oh.

There you go.

- The president...

- Please, will you step to one side?

Just a moment.

- Nice weather we're having.

- Yes, it is.

- Yes, clever observation.

- How've you been, Mr. Penny?

- Fine, thank you.

- That's good. It's very interesting.

Ah...

Oh.

- How do you do? Oh, yeah. How do you do?

- How are you, sir?

Oh, well as can be expected after that

tussle I put up with those two bandits.

- Oh, yes.

- I went to see the doctor.

He said as a result

of that scrap,

I'll probably have to have a kidney

and gallbladder removed.

- I also may need an appendectomy.

- Mm-mmm.

I saw young Oggilby. He told me

to come up to see the president.
