Hit The Ice Page #6

You couldn't whip cream

with an outboard motor.

- Is that so?

- And I'll prove it to you.

- Do you see this handkerchief?

- Do you got a cold?

Never mind the cold.

I'll place that on the floor.

I'll stand on one end of it. You stand on the

other and I'll bet you $5 you can't hit me.

You'll put

the handkerchief on the floor,

stand on one end, I stand on

the other, and I can't hit you?

- That's right.

- Both of us standing on it?

- That's right.

- Bet.

- $5. Put up your money.

- Okay.

- I'll hold it.

- All right.

There you are.

I'll put the gloves on because I

don't want to cut you when I hit you.

- Never mind that. Stand on the handkerchief.

- Okay, kid.

- Okay.

- Right, right.

Don't you hit me

until I say ready.

I'll wait

till you say it.

- And no cheating.

- No, no.

- No cheating.

- I'm standing on it. I'm standing.

I got a whole half a foot.

I got a whole half

of foot on there.

Flash:

I'm standing on the handkerchief.

Oh boy,

I'll knock him cold.

Go ahead and hit me.

What do ya got the door

here for?

- How am I gonna hit you

with the door?!

What's the idea of you playing

that kind of trick on me?

After all, I... don't tell

me you're scared of that?

- Don't... don't...

- Come on, come on.

It's only a bearskin.

Look.

No, you don't.

No, you don't.

What kept you?

That was a close shave.

I think someone's knocking

at the cabin door.

I don't see anybody

knocking at the door.

Are you sure?

I must be hearing things.

Hey, Flash,

does this

high altitude get you?

- No.

- It's getting me.

I've got the funniest pounding

going inside of my head.

Just like I had

a couple of those...

popsicles.

You know how I feel

when I have those things?

- Oh, behave.

- Little elves hit me in the head all the time.

Hey.

- What's the matter?

- Now I hear bells.

- Dr. Burns:
Let me help you, Mr. Fellowsby.

- Thank you.

There we are.

- Come on.

- Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Whoa, boy.

As long as you

have the negative

we hold the whip hand.

I think so.

You know what I'm gonna do?

- What?

- I'm gonna bluff 'em.

- What are you doing here?

- Well, I...

Sorry to have to do this, Doc,

but we can't take any chances.

- Take care of the doctor, boys.

- Yeah, come on.

- Oooh!

- Look out!

You must be

getting old.

Keep an eye on 'em. When

those Detroit boys show up,

we'll get rid

of the whole lot.

Come on!

Drop that gun or I'll drill you!

I got a gun here

shoots bullets for 12 miles

and throws rocks the rest

of the way.

Do you want him to drill you,

or do you want to play ball?

We'll play ball.

I'm a pretty good shortstop.

Thattaboy!

Get out of the way!

You ain't so tough,

you little pig!

- Who are you calling a pig?

- You!

With the price of pork

nowadays, is that an insult?

- Now boys, let's talk it over, eh?

- Okay.

You're talking

to a pretty tough hombre.

Hey, ain't that the dame that

spotted us from the hospital?

Don't worry about her, pal.

She won't identify anybody.

Good. Hey you,

pick up that gun.

Come on, pick it up!

Let's have it.

Here you are, killer.

Take this gun.

Take them outside,

use them bullets on them.

If you come back with any,

I'll use them on you.

Okay, Boss.

Stand up, or I'll let

you have it sitting down.

On your feet.

Come on, get with it!

- I'll go along with you.

- No, you don't.

I'll handle

this myself.

Excuse me.

And when the killer gets back,

all witnesses wiped out,

we'll talk business.

What are you...

... ing about?

Tubby and me'll try

and bluff 'em until you get back.

Well, it's all over.

Okay, put the negative on the

table and we'll close the deal.

Where's the money?

Okay, I'll get it.

- Step aside.

- I ought to take a poke at you.

Why, you couldn't fight your way out

of an outboard motor

with whipped cream.

Whipped cream?

On second thought,

I don't think

you can do it.

- Do what?

- Poke me in the nose.

- Oh, can't I?

- No.

- Just stand there.

- You want to make a wager?

- Sure, I'll make a wager.

- What's your share of the cut?

- 10 Gs.

- That's all I wanted to know. 10 Gs, brother.

Here's your 10 Gs.

Put it on the table.

Put it on the table.

Don't count it. It's there.

- Here's mine. You got it?

- Yeah.

I'm going to get

a handkerchief.

Who's got one? Thank you.

Thank you ever so much, kid.

- See this handkerchief?

- Yeah.

I'm going to put it

on the floor.

You stand on one end,

I'll stand on the other.

I'll bet you can't touch me.

You'll bet your cut against mine that

if we both stand on the handkerchief

I can't touch you?

- You got the idea. Wanna make a bet?

- Yeah.

That's all I wanted to know,

brother. You'll get a bet.

That's all.

Now listen, shorty,

don't push.

You're going

to get your chance.

Here, you hold

the stakes.

I hope you know

what you're doing.

I'm going to outsmart them.

Now, Mr. Wise Guy,

I'm gonna show you.

I'll put the handkerchief on the

floor. You stand on that edge.

Stand on the edge of the

handkerchief. That's it.

I put my two feet here. When

I say ready, try and touch me.

Ready... wait a minute!

Wait a minute.

I forgot something.

Wait a minute.

Not here, not here.

Come on.

You stand over there...

by there.

I came pretty near

to getting killed. Wait a minute.

I got you all fixed.

Stand on the edge of the

handkerchief right there.

I'll stand on the edge here, and when

I say ready, you try and touch me.

Ready?

Get his gun.

- A banana!

- Why, the little monkey!

Find that negative.

Hey, here it is.

- Why, our faces aren't even in it!

- Now can I give it to him?

But you can't shoot

an unconscious man!

They're the best kind.

Well, that's that.

Now do you want

to talk business?

Cut it out or I'll show

your picture to the cops.

We saw that picture, friend.

It ain't a good likeness.

Nope, not at all.

- Hey, he's not...

- He will be.

Uh-oh.

Carry him upstairs.

I'll take care of you later.

Come on, honey.

Here, take my hand.

Ooh, take my arm...

Oooh.

Well, that's that!

Give me your hand.

Wait a minute.

What did I do?

Tubby, I'm so...

I'm sorry.

- Tubby...

- Oh, oh, oh!

Come... come on.

Get down! Get down!

Turn it around.

- Turn it around?

- Turn it around. Come here.

Get in your harness.

Get in your harness.

Do you think the boys

will be able to bluff them?

I hope so... at least until

we get back.

- I'll take the money.

- Ready.

Ready? Mush.

Will you ever

do anything right?

Why, you...! How are we

going to make our getaway now?

Wait a minute.

- A ski hut!

- Is that what you call it?

- Yes. We'll get away on skis. Come on!

- Okay, come on.

Oh.

Come on, let's get out of here

before those guys come to.

Hurry up!

I'm going fast, boy!

Out of the way!

Gang way!

Gang way!

Come on, you lugs, snap out of it!

They're getting away with our money.

- Wait a minute. Where's the money?

- Money?

- What do you think,

money grows on trees?

I think you got
