The Big House Page #5

Come on. Get in there.

I'm covering.

Say, listen, you...

what about these?

Now, you-you can't

because the hawk gave me this

to buy him a pair

of s-s-suspenders with,

and if i don't

bring them back,

he'll t-t-tear

my head off.

Aw, come on.

Get in there with them.

Oh, yeah.

S-s-s-sure.

All right. Come on, now.

All right, come on, now.

Give me the bugs.

I'll warm them up.

All right.

Watch them run.

You all ready?

You all set?

All right,

there they go.

Look at him go.

Look at him go.

Look at that bug go.

Hey, butch,

y-your-your- your b-bug

looks like it's

coming to-

there he goes. Over the line.

Over the line.

I win. I win.

That's just too bad.

Chewing gum.

Hey, no wonder that bug couldn't run.

Chewing gum.

Who done that?

Come on.

What porch-climbing

crook done that?

You did.

Who, me?

Yes, you.

What's the big idea?

You wouldn't double-cross

a pal, would you, butch?

Any more

of you guys think i pulled a phony?

Not me.

You, joe?

N-no.

You, putnam?

You can't get away

with that, butch.

No?

You're asking

for it, ain't you?

One wiggle

out of you,

and i'll give it

to you.

Listen, you guys are liable to get the hole for this.

Yeah? You'll

get the hole, just 5' 10".

They'll have to dig it

big enough for two.

Oh, yes?

Yeah.

Look out, butch!

Ditch that knife.

Here comes wallace.

Well, what's

coming off here?

Me and morgan

was just rassling a bit, sir.

Sure you weren't

mixing up a little fighting with it, huh?

Who, me? No, sir.

You better not,

or i'll fix up

a lot of dark days

for you.

Gambling, huh?

No, sir. Not me.

How did those cigarettes

and tobacco get here?

Well, uh...

i was packing them in my shirt, sir,

and... morgan and me

starts rassling, and i get sweaty,

so i lay them out

on the ground to dry.

Don't lie to me.

I wouldn't lie.

No, sir.

Let them alone.

What's that

you said?

I said,

"yes, sir."

Another move

out of you,

and you'll go

to the dungeon.

Who did that?

I did, wrestling

with butch.

Well, the next time

i see you,

you better

have it fixed.

You get me?

Bring that stuff.

I hate his guts.

It's a good thing

i warned you.

If wallace had seen

that knife...

yeah. You ain't

such a bad skunk as i thought you was.

Come on, get a move on, all of you.

I'll move.

I'll move.

Stle blows]

Fish again.

That dirty, rotten,

stinkin' codfish.

Yeah. It's spoiled.

Oh, look!

It's-it's terrible.

It's even killed one

of our poor little bu-bu-bu-

cockroaches.

Ohh...

nice tenderloin steak

with mushrooms all over it.

Gee.

I'd like to ram it

down their throat.

Pipe down.

Wallace.

You talking, butch?

Who, me?

No, sir.

I'll get them someday.
