:44:04
- l wonder if he's come to ask us again.
- He'll get the same answer.
:44:09
- Oh, dear. lt seems a little mean.
- He's not going to get a penny.
:44:14
Couldn't we help him a little?
:44:16
For old times' sake?
After all, he's a friend.
:44:19
Friends are not deductible.
:44:21
- Hello, Neddy dear!
- How are you, my boy?
:44:24
- l'm swimming across the county.
- l didn't know one could.
:44:28
- l met your new chauffeur.
- Nice boy. Sense of personal worth.
:44:32
- l got a lot of laughs out of Steve.
- Steve had no sense of personal worth.
:44:37
What does it say?
:44:39
"At the zoning board meeting,
local property owners objected...
:44:43
...to the Halloran proposal on the basis
it would overcrowd public schools."
:44:47
We petitioned to cut the Driscoll estate
into two-acre lots, instead of five.
:44:52
They're practically
calling us communists.
:44:54
- Sticks and stones, sticks and stones.
- lt'll be a tough fight, Chester.
:44:59
- Why is that tree bare?
- Oh, that's an ash.
:45:04
Well, it must be blighted.
:45:06
No. Ashes are the last to get their
leaves and the first to lose them.
:45:12
Overcrowding
the public schools, indeed.
:45:15
As though people with two acres
propagate more than people with five.
:45:19
That's not even a biological fact.
:45:22
- Safari Ball. Put me down for a table.
- Oh, Neddy.
:45:27
What's the matter?
Don't l always support your benefits?
:45:32
- A table costs $ 1000.
- Okay, put me down.
:45:48
By the way, my boy, l was awfully
sorry that we couldn't be of help.
:45:54
l don't recall asking you for help.
:45:57
How are Lucinda and the girls?
:45:59
Lucinda's fine and the girls are
home playing tennis.
