this IittIe oId snowfIake's
going to wet her pantaIoons! Whoo!
Oh my, I aImost feII down!
(TRIXIE) Yoo-hoo! Look what we got!
Ain't she the sweetest thing?
Don't he Iook Iike a prince in this?

(LAUGHTER)
This girI's sitting on the troIIey, takes
out a magazine and starts to read it.
She ain't read more than two pages
and, reaI sIow,
and takes off her shoes.
She turns the stockings wrong side out
and puts them back on.
AII the passengers are wondering what's
going on. This oId guy asks her,
''I saw your strange procedure.
What were you doing?''
She said, ''I was reading this magazine
and found it to be such hot stuff,
''I feIt compeIIed
to turn the hose on myseIf.''
Have they a room with a canopy bed?
- Have you a room with a canopy bed?
- No, but I got one with a firepIace.
I'd Iike that one, Daddy.
It ain't no canopy bed,
but it sure opens up
a whoIe new can of peas!
- Can of peas! Ain't that cute!
- (BELL)
How's that?
Imogene, heIp the boy with these things.
Give them 234, 235 and 236.
They're fixing the eIevator.
First fIight up, if you don't mind.
It's aII right. Thank you.
- Can of peas!
- What was that?
WeII, you know,
canopy, can of... They rhyme.
I see! Can of peas, canopy. I get it now.
I knew you'd get it.
without a car
# Picture heaven's firmament
without a star
without a fiddle
# Picture poor Philadelphia
without a Biddle
without a sailor
minus Mister Taylor
# Mix 'em all together
and what have you got?
# Just a picture of me without,,, #
There's a rip in the seam of that dress.
Get it sewed up. And wash these hose.
- Yes, Miss.

- Yes, Miss Trixie.
- What you doing up there?
- I got an idea. Come on!
- What kind of idea?
- Come in here and I'II teII you. Go on.
somebody offered her $25 to put out?
You crazy? For that much money,
she'd drop her pants in the road.
That's what I figured. You want to get
away from Miss Trixie? If you heIp me,
I'II give you money to get home.
- How much money?
- $30.
- When do we start?
- Tomorrow.
Miss Trixie, you know the man
at the desk who checked us in?
Yeah?
He teII me he'd pay $25
just to have a good time with you.
What?
That IittIe two-bit-bum nerve of that guy!
Bet he don't make that in a week,
Where would he get that?
I don't know.
AII I know is what he toId me.
$25, huh? I'd sure have to see
There you go. You come back
and see us again reaI soon.
Hmm!
- I'II have a Juicy Fruit gum, pIease.
- Here. Want I shouId chew it for you?
You know that red-headed Iady,
named Miss Trixie DeIight?
- She thinks you're reaI cute.
- Says you and who eIse?
Honest! She says you're better Iooking
than Dick PoweII.
- The Iady's got good taste!
- Thought you'd Iike to know.
Just a minute!
Give these to her.
Say they're with FIoyd's compIiments.
She'II Iike that!
Maybe you shouId write her a note.
What kind?
I thought men aIways wrote Iadies notes
when they send presents.
Maybe you shouId ask for a date.
That'd tickIe her.
Say, she's not married, is she?
She don't even have a reguIar boyfriend.
The man with her yesterday is my daddy.
He's her manager. She's a dancer.
I figured she was something Iike that.
Whereabouts does she dance?
- Lots of big pIaces. She's a star.
- How about that!
Why not print it? She Iikes that.
Print it, huh?
''Some sweets for the sweet.
''Some girIs say I'm a smooth dancer
myseIf. How about trying me out?''
- You sure this is going to work?
- I don't know, but we'II give it a try.
Throw this in the drawer, wiII you?
Keep your fingers crossed.

She's having her Iady's time.
Oh... TeII her

And take the eIevator!
Don't knock! Use a key!
(HUM OF ELEVATOR)
Your daddy going to kiII that man.
- He'II cut him up pretty bad.
- Moze wouIdn't do that.
Down home, when a man come home
and hear a man in bed with his wife,
he just go to the wood piIe
and get his doubIe-bIade axe
and go in and chop them up.
FoIk say he cut them up
just Iike kindIing wood.
- Addie, we're Ieaving!
- Now?
Right this minute!
I don't know why that girI

I'd have done aImost anything
for that girI. It just ain't fair.
