I guess,... you know, she and Hank are...

You're in my chair.

Slide a bit, Nancy Lee.

There's a man in the toilet selling

aftershave. Now, what's that all about?

Hank.

What are doing here?

Took my own advice, Doc.

Knowing when to stay, when to get out.

Yeah, I... I thought you and

Lou were gonna get...

Oh, Lou was never gonna marry me.

So I broke it off clean.

You, you dumped her?

A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

Even if it's in California.

Sense of higher purpose, you know.

Is that, is that a star?

No, that's Ted Danson.

I'm going for breakfast. You want anything.

How 'bout Bob Barker?

I'll see what I can do.

Howdy.

You steal that pig?

Well, I heard she was wasting away

in this one-pig town so...

And you thought you'd

come back and rescue her.

Yeah, something like that.

And what makes you think

she'll take you back?

Because I love her.

Go back to Los Angeles.

I don't want Los Angeles.

I want you.

You got great tonsils.

That ain't all.

You know, I just thought of something.

I guess I'm gonna have time to

collect that ten dollars from Nicholson.

You lost that bet.

I did not lose. Says who?

Says me.

Says you?

You have no say in this bet.

You are the bet.

I don't care. The bet was

for one week. You lost.

Uh, it's your word against mine.

You mean you would sully my

reputation for ten measly dollars?

Absolutely.

I don't even know what sully means.
