MOE:

Now, let me see... we gotta be

at the Hickey house at four.

(he looks at

his watch)

It's about three-twenty now...

we've got some time on our hands.

You want to get some coffee?

BB:

No, I'm up to here with the

coffee.

He indicates his throat.

MOE:

They got any good pool halls

around here?

BB:

I don't know.

(beat)

You know what would be fun to do..?

Let's try the Life Magazine

routine.

MOE:

(smiles)

Yeah.

CUT TO:

22 EXT. WOODEN FRAMED HOUSE - DAY 22

Slightly run-down. We're looking THROUGH the LENS of a

35mm camera.

BB (O.S.)

You know, I think we've got to

come over about two feet.

The SCREEN SHAKES as BB moves the camera.

CUT TO:

23 INT. WOODEN FRAMED HOUSE - DAY 23

A HOUSEWIFE is looking through the curtains, suspiciously.

CAMERA MOVES TOWARDS the window and we see Moe and BB

moving the 35mm camera around on a tripod. We can

faintly hear their talk.

BB:

I think this is a better position...

the light is hitting it, which is

accentuating the effect we're

going for. It's very good...

very good.

MOE:

(in a creative pose)

This shows the flaws in the

structure...

CUT TO:

24 EXT. WOODEN FRAMED HOUSE - DAY 24

BB and Moe at the camera and tripod.

BB:

(under his breath,

to Moe)

She's at the window.

MOE:

Yeah.

BB:

(in a loud voice)

This is going to be terrific in

Life Magazine.

(even louder)

Terrific in Life Magazine!

(under his breath)

Come on outside, honey.

MOE:

(in loud voice)

This should be our single biggest

issue of Life Magazine.

We see the Housewife coming out of her front door.

BB:

(quietly)

Bingo!

The Housewife approaches BB and Moe suspiciously.

HOUSEWIFE:

Excuse me. What are you doing?

(CONTINUED)

MOE:

Oh, I hope we're not disturbing

you, ma'am. We're with Life

Magazine... we'll be out of here

in just a minute.

BB:

(still looking through

camera; to Moe)

Move the tripod another foot...

another foot.

Moe moves the tripod.

HOUSEWIFE:

What do you mean, Life Magazine?

BB:

(looking up

from camera)

Two minutes, ma'am, and we'll be

out of here. We just need the

picture for Life Magazine, and

we'll be out of here.
