Wings in the Dark Page #5

All right, Mr. Kelter.

Thanks for not trying

to tell me that everything

will work out swell.

Right.

L"m going away, Mac.

Away?

Yes, I have to.

I don"t want charity

and I won"t stand

being pitied.

L"m not down yet.

Of course you"re not.

You"ll have to get

another job, Mac.

But I wish you"d keep

an eye on the ship.

Right.

I don"t want you to tell

anybody where I am, nobody.

L"ve got to have time

to think this thing out alone.

Right.

No, Mac. He"d rather

do it himself.

You all right, Mr. Gordon?

Certainly l"m all right.

What are you doing out here?

I told you I didn"t want you

following me around, Waring.

I only came out to get

some wood, Mr. Gordon.

All right, get the wood.

Yes, sir, Mr. Gordon.

Here, Mac, you take him in.

L"ll wait out here.

Right.

What is it, Waring?

Well, what do you want?

Lt"s me, Chief.

Mac?

Yes, Ken.

What are you doing here?

The ship"s all right,

isn"t it?

Sure, the ship"s fine.

Well, then?

I knew you wanted

to be alone but, well,

I brought you something.

Thanks, Mac,

I don"t need a thing.

L"m getting along fine.

Of course you are, Ken,

but this is a dog.

That"s very thoughtful of you,

Mac, but don"t need a dog.

But this is not an ordinary

dog, Ken. He"ll help.

He"s a German shepherd.

He"ll lead you around.

He"s from the

Seeing Eye school.

I see.

A dog to lead the blind.

Just the thing, isn"t it?

Now, Ken.

All I need is a tin cup

and some pencils.

Congratulations, Mac,

that"s a swell idea.

Ken, it"s nothing like that.

You don"t understand. Here.

Meet him,

get to know him like I did.

Here, this is his harness.

All you have to do

is to snap it on him.

Get him out of here.

Now, Ken.

(YELLING)

Get him out!

Come on, Lightning.

Come on.

What"s the idea?

Let Lightning try.

Waring!

Waring!

No. Don"t go.

Waring!

So he left you here anyway.

Keep quiet.

Go away.

Get away!

GORDON:
Waring! Waring!

Come and take this dog

out of here!

Waring!

Get away!

You"re a determined cuss,

aren"t you?

Now what are you trying to do,

talk to me?

Well, you"re an awful lot

of dog, big fellow.

L"ll bet you could put up

a whale of a fight.

What do you want to do,

go for a walk?

What"s this?

Oh, your harness.

All right, how does it work?

Keep your fingers crossed,

Sheila. I believe he"s

going to do it.

So that"s it.

Come on, boy.

Well, how about

that walk, boy?

You still feel like it?

Okay. Contact.

Easy, fellow.

This is a new kind

of take-off for me.

Now, we"re ready.

Give it the gun.

Hey, let me learn to fly

this ship, will you?

(DOG WHINING)

What"s the matter, fellow?

What is it?

(DOG BARKING)

Who is it?

Who is it? Who"s there?
