One Sunday Afternoon Page #4

- People that's been there a long time?

- That's it!

Want me to do spy work for you, huh?

So that's what you call it?

See, that's what I get for

trying to help him.

I didn't ask for any help.

- Loo here, Biff!

- Hugo you're making a fool of yourself!

A fool for inviting Biff to have dinner

with us!

Serves me right for trying to treat an

employee as an equal!

You don't need to try any longer!

I didn't ask you here!

Come on, Virginia!

Same old Biff Grimes.

Always looking for trouble!

Don't forget the Phoenix Buggy factory

pays you a living!

What's the use? Come on, Virginia!

Bye, Amy.

Don't worry about it. I can manage him.

I'm sorry, Amy.

Goodbye, Biff.

Goodbye.

Nice of you to tell them you were going

to get that dress for me, Biff.

I'm gonna get it for you too!

He makes me sick, coming around here

putting on airs.

Him and his

pate de foie gras and his champagne and

stopping in fine hotels.

We're gonna stop in fine hotels too.

- Sure we are, Biff.

- He heard Caruso...

We're gonna hear Caruso too! You're

gonna look as nice as Virginia does!

Makes me sick putting on airs just

because his uncle has money

and a wife like Virginia and...

If you've got anything to say, go and

see Mr. Barnstead!

I've seen enough of him to

last me the rest of my life!

And he didn't fire me!

I quit!

- Anytime Hugo Barnstead thinks...

- I'll finish it for you!

Hugo Barnstead can do anything he wants

in this factory!

You're incompetent and you're through!

Incompetent, am I?

Let me tell you something...

Hello, Amy.

Glad to see you, Ma.

You're awful good to take me in

after all I've said.

That's all right. We'll get along.

You know,

you get better looking

everytime I see you.

Biff,

you didn't have any trouble, did you?

Why no!

Shouldn't you be working?

I just came out...for a minute.

I thought maybe you'd be going by.

I'll be getting back.

My, he's nice!

Could I speak to you alone,

Mr. Barnstead?

Anything you have to say, you can say

in front of Mr. Jackson here.

Look Hugo, Mr. Barnstead, I mean.

You see,

my mother-in-law is coming to

stay with us and

I've always worked hard

and I'll work even harder if I have to.

You can have your job back.

That's fine, Mr. Barnstead.

Thanks!

Now,

what are the names of the men I ought

to get rid of?

Oh, I wouldn't do that!

- I don't want to be a...

- Go on, get out!

Get out!

- I'm going to tell you something, Hugo!

- You're going to tell me nothing!

Put him out!

Don't start anything! Out you go!

Get your hands off me or

I'll smack you!

You dirty little weasel!

What's the matter?

- Where can I put these, darling?

- In your room, Mother.

The curtains aren't up yet. When Biff

come home, he will hang them.

- Alright, Biff.

- Hello, Matt.

- What do you want?

- You better go along quietly

and not make any trouble.

Trouble? I don't know what you're

talking about.

- We know what you done!

- We can't help you, Biff.

The bullet is in the cop's leg!

Hugo Barnstead says that you done it!

He's a dirty rat! He started the

whole thing when he...

I'll do anything I can, Matt.

Hugo wanted me to bring you here, and...

Hugo says the whole factory will help.

He wanted me to talk to you

and fix things up.

- Oh, hello Amy.

- What's the matter?

Matter?

Nothing. I was just...

talking to Matt. You know

Charlie Brown and

Matthews.

You see, the police are giving a bake

next Thursday night and

Hugo says the whole factory will help.

That'll be nice, won't it?

That's fine.

Did you say you wanted me to go down

now and fix it up?

Yes.

I'll be back in just

a little while, honey.

Just a little while.

Alright, Biff.

Wait...

wait for me.

I'll wait.

Biff!

Biff!

So Amy's working in Goldstein's

Drug Store, huh?

Huh?

That's what she says here in her letter.

Oh yeah. Sure. Goldstein's.

She's doing fine there too, Biff.

It's a lie. You're all lying to me!

You and everybody else!

She probably doesn't have enough

money to buy food!

And she spends $3.00 for this!

Wait until I get out of here!

I'm going to do something besides

study to be a dentist!

And when I get a hold of that

Hugo Barnstead... - Times up!

So long, Biff. I got to be going.

Biff.

Hello.

Hello, Amy.

I didn't want anybody to see me

at the station, so

so I got off back...

Sure is mighty,

mighty nice around here.

Ain't it?

It's lovely tonight.

Seems like, seems like June.

I'm awful glad to see you, Biff.

I guess you had a pretty hard time

of it while I was gone.

I got along alright.

I'm gonna make up to you, Amy.

After all the trouble you've had.

Maybe you'd rather go away from here,

and start over somewhere else.

Where...

where nobody knows.

I'll go anywhere with you, Biff.

Just like going to sleep.

- I can't stand it, Biff! Let me go!

- You stay where you are!

Well, if it isn't Biff Grimes!

Well, Dr. Grimes, haven't you

anything to say to me?

Hello...

Virginia.

- How are you?

- Not bad, not good.

And Snappy!

Well, it does look like old times!

Still painting the town red, kiddo?

Oh, I don't paint everything red.

Sometimes I...

Say, you pulled Goofy Jake's

tooth yet?

Why, no.

I was just going to.

- Sit down?

- Don't mind if I do.

Do me a favor, Biff.

Why don't you put him out of his misery?

Hugo, are you alright?

Let him alone, Biff.

If you bring him to, he'll talk.

Here, Hugo. Water.

What an awful taste.

Feel better?

Oh, Virgie, you're here?

Yes, nature's child.

Did you think you were going

to crash the Pearly Gates?

Virgie, don't you talk that way.

Are you ready?

Yes, sweetheart.

Look, Virgie. That's where it was.

You see?

Perhaps you'll examine me sometimes,

Dr. Grimes.

By the way, how's your wife?

Very well, thanks.

Still married or...

or don't you work at it?

Mrs. Grimes is still Mrs. Grimes.

Well, Biff...

how much do I owe you?

Not a thing.

I don't understand.

No...

but you don't owe me anything, Hugo.

That's fine, thanks.

I gotta go, Biff. I gotta paint a sign

for somebody.

It's in red!

So long, Biff!

Good afternoon.

Well!

If that's the way you feel about it...

Good afternoon!

- When we get home, I must write a letter

to my dentist in Pittsburgh. - Shut up!

You and your dentist in Pittsburgh.

For heaven's sake, Biff Grimes,

what's the matter with you?

- I got something to tell you.

- You should be ashamed drinking

and raising this racket.

! am.

I don't mind you taking a drink, but

you make such a fool of yourself.

Yes, ma'am. I do.

I certainly do.

You're not even ready to go out!

No ma'am.

I will be.

- You know something about you?

- About me?

Yeah.

You're very sweet.

You're very beautiful.

And i love you.

I love you, Biff.

And now Biff Grimes and his girl are

going for a nice long walk!

- Biff, put my skirt down!

- Let them look!

Biff Grimes' girl has got the best-

looking legs in town!
