Transcribed By: Moron4392
Date Added: 2008-08-11

Would like to add this additional note:  (In this feature, "Soup To Nuts", Moe was credited and used his second name which is "Harry."

The Feature Opens With This Quote By "Rube Goldberg:"

"There can never be harmony in the home while people loudly gurlge their soup."

"There can never be peace in matrimony while wives throw broken nutshells on the floor for their husbands to step on with their bare feet."

"Somewhere between the soup and the nuts .... perhaps in the fish or the applesauce .... there must be joy and contentment."

 

The feature opens with an outside shot of the fire barn.  With pedestrians walking by and two fire engines in the garage.

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON SHEMP, HARRY, AND LARRY:

They are dressed in their firemans uniforms, sitting at a table with happy and contented looks on their faces and their feet propped up on the table top.

Shemp has a telephone in his hand and he is getting ready to answer it.

SHEMP to HARRY and LARRY:  (Just before he answers the telephone with a look of dismay on his face).  "It's getting so a guy can't sing!"

SHEMP to the TELEPHONE:  (As he is shouting into it with disgust in his voice).  "Hello, who?  Hey, Ted?"

Shemp, Harry, and Larry are looking at the firemans pole.

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON THE FIREMANS POLE:

Shemp still has the telephone receiver at his ear while he shouts up the firemans pole (with Larry and Harry watching).

SHEMP to TED:  (Shouting at the pole loudly).  "Hey, Ted?"

TED to SHEMP:  (Ted is off camera and shouting back at Shemp with madness in his voice in reference to the telephone call).  "All right, comin' right down!"

Ted is now coming down the pole sitting at a table playing checkers with another fireman.  Ted is happily singing La-De-Da, La-De-Da, La-De-Da, La-De-Da.

Shemp is again shouting to Ted as he is coming down the pole still singing happily, La-De-Da, La-De-Da, La-De-Da, La-De-Da, with a look of glee on his face still playing checkers.

SHEMP to TED:  (With a look of wonderment on his face and question in his voice as his signals with his had to Ted about the telephone).  "You're wanted on the phone."

Ted then gives Shemp a quick glance as he resumes coming down the pole, singing happily and playing checkers.

TED to SHEMP:  (With a look of dismay on his face and waves his hand at Shemp, as Shemp once again yells that he is wanted on the telephone).  "All right, all right, all right, all right!"

Ted is still sitting there playing checkers, singing in a gleeful voice La-De-Da, La-De-Da, La-De-Da, La-De-Da.  He has his hands crossed in front of him.  He then makes a move that he is happy with, points at his move gleefully to the other fireman and says, 'Ha-ha, hee-hee.'  The other fireman, slightly leaning forward, jumps the checker that Ted just had moved.

TED to the OTHER FIREMAN:  (Whe he realized his move was not a good one, and with a look of question on his face and wonderment in his voice.  Laughing slightly and waving his hand says).  "I didn't see that, that was a good one, I didn't see that at all, I just could of as well moved over there."

The Little Fireman is now approaching Ted and taps him on the shoulder.  Ted then turns around and gives him a look of madness.  The Little Fireman with a look of happiness on his face as he is pointing to the checkers gam says to Ted with a look of glee on his face.

LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (Raising his eyebrows and a look of glee on his face whispers to Ted).  "I see a move right over there."

TED to the LITTLE FIREMAN:  (With question on his face as he point to a checker and says).  "That one?"

LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (With a look of disagreement on his face shakes his head in).  "No!"

TED to the LITTLE FIREMAN:  (As he points to another checker and looks at him in question asks).  "That one?"

LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (Raising his eyebrows and clapping his hands and has a look of glee on his face says).  "Yes!"

Ted then follows the Little Firemans advice and makes that move, which turns out to be a very bad move.  It caused the other fireman to make a five jump move causing his to win the game.

After the game ended.  The Little Fireman still standing by Ted has a look of wonderment on his face, and Ted has a look of dismay on his face.  The other fireman is grining ear to ear with his victory.

TED to the OTHER FIREMAN:  (Laughing and pointing his finger at the game says).  "Ha-ha, that was good, ha-ha sorry."

Ted is now standing up and leaving the checkers game with the other fireman still sitting there and the Little Fireman at Ted's side with an apologetic look on his face.

As Ted is standing up, thoroughly mad at the Little Fireman for telling him the wrong move, shoves him backwards by the face causing him to fall into a wall.  Ted then walks over to a drinking fountain and takes a drink.  The Little Fireman is getting up with a hurt look on his face and is rubbing it.  The other checkers partner fireman is still sitting there in glee at the table enjoying his win.

SHEMP to TED:  (Yelling at him and still holding the telephone).  "Hey, ain't you gonna answer that phone?"

Ted is looking at Shemp (off camera), with a look of dismay on his face as he is approaching the telephone.

TED to SHEMP:  (As Shemp is still yelling at him and a mad look on his face about answering the telephone).  "All right, all right!"

Ted is now approaching the table and is sitting down, getting ready to answer the telephone while Harry, Shemp, and Larry are sitting contently at the table still with ther feet propped up.

SHEMP to TED:  (With a look of mischief on his face, refering to Ted's girlfriend).  "I think it's that loud speaker again!"

Ted is now taking the telephone from Shemp.

TED to SHEMP:  (As he is sitting down to answer the telephone, with a mad look on his face, says in reference to what Shemp said about his girlfrien).  "Don't say that!"

Ted is now answering the telephone and finds out it is his girlfriend Qeenie.

TED to QUEENIE:  (His girlfriend, with happiness in his voice and a look of glee on his face).  "Hello, hello, hello, how are you Queenie?"

QUEENIE to TED:  (Yelling at him at the top of her lungs and madness on her face).  "Oh, is that you Ted?  Listen, palooka, you outta be ashamed of yourself.  Taking money for working at "Schmidt's Costume Shoppe", and hanging out at the firehouse all day long, you big donkey, you!"

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON TED AT THE FIRE BARN:

TED to QUEENIE:  (Yelling at her and dismay on his face).  "Don't call me a donkey, you big ox."

Ted then puts his hand over the telephone so she cannot hear him.

TED to SHEMP, HARRY, and LARRY:  (With a look of happiness on his face and waving his hands says).  "It's the girlfriend, a lady of very few words."

Harry, Shemp, and Larry are still sitting at the table, in a total state of contentment and their feet propped up on a lower board underneath the table.

THE STOOGES to TED:  (In their small part about Ted's telephone conversation with Queenie in happy voices).
 SHEMP: "Say hello for me."
 HARRY: "Give her my regards."
 LARRY: "Me too!"

Ted is now resuming his telephone conversation with Queenie.

TED to QUEENIE:  "The boys say hello!"

QUEENIE to TED:  (Chewing on a stick of gum and still yelling and with dismay on her face says).  "Oh, yeah, those three mugs are the scum of the earth!"

Ted is now again covering the telephone and is looking at Harry, Shemp, and Larry with wonderment.

TED to THE STOOGES:  (With a happy look on his face and waving his hands says).  "She speaks highly of you boys."

Larry, Shemp, and Harry are sitting there with happy and proud looks on their faces.

SHEMP to TED:  (Smiling happily about his telephone conversation with Queenie).  "She always did like us."

TED to HARRY, SHEMP, and LARRY:  (Smiling proudly and supporting a glad look on his face).  "Yeah, she likes ya.  Someday she'll make a great little wife for me."

TED to QUEENIE:  (With a look of madness on his face and shouting at her).  "Shut up, you pest, you're breaking my eardrums."

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON QUEENIE:

She is sitting at the receptionist desk of "Schmidt's Costume Shopp."  She has her hand over the telephone and has a happy look on her face and is talking to a very irate customer, (D. Quincy Throckmorton), who has been patiently waiting for service at the costume shoppe.

QUEENIE to the CUSTOMER:  (Winking at him and still chewing her gum and smiling says happily).  "I'm talking to Ted, my boyfriend, he's a darling, I'm crazy about him!"

QUEENIE to TED:  (Yelling at him at the top of her lungs).  "I'll break your head when you get over here!"

Ted is still on the telephone listening to Queenie.  Harry, Shemp, and Larry are still sitting at the table with Ted giving glances of wonderment at Ted and the telephone conversation with Queenie.

SHEMP, to HARRY, and LARRY:  (With a look of glee on his face).  "Say boys, let's rehearse that number for the firemans ball, come on, let's try it again."

SHEMP to LARRY:  (With a mischievous look on his face says).  "Sound your A."

Larry tries to sing but is pitiful off key.

HARRY to LARRY:  (With a look of question on his face says to Larry).  "Give it to me again!"

Larry then tries to sound his "A" again but is still off key.

SHEMP to LARRY:  (With a dumbfounded look on his face and waving his hand says).  "That's near enough!"

THE STOOGES ARE NOW REHEARSING THEIR SONG:  "YOU'LL NEVER KNOW:"

They are still sitting at the table with looks of joy and contentment on their faces as they close their eyes in relaxation as they start to sing.

"You'll never know, just what tears are.  Till you cried like you made me cry.  How a broken heart aches, though it's broken in fun.  You'll never know, till you've met the wrong one.  To love and kiss, and lose it all.  And to find every promise a lie.  You ---- You'll never know just what tears are, till you've cried, like you've made me cry!"

ALL THE WHILE THE STOOGES ARE SINGING TED IS STILL TRYING TO HOLD A TELEPHONE CONVERSATION WITH QUEENIE:

TED to THE SINGING STOOGES:  (Yelling at them to shut up).  "Hey fellas, I can't hear a thing.  Wait, will ya?  Listen, I can't hear, listen, I can't hear.  Will you please shut up, I can't hear a thing."

Ted tries to return to the telephone with Queenie on the other end.

TED to QUEENIE:  (Shouting at her).  "I can't hear with them singing!"

TED to THE SINGING STOOGES:  (With a mad look on his face and yelling at them).  "Fellas, will you wait a minute please?"

LITTLE FIREMAN'S SUGGESTION ON HOW TO SHUT UP THE STOOGES SO TED CAN HOLD HIS TELEPHONE CONVERSATION WITH QUEENIE:

The Stooges are sitting at the table in total contentment and enjoying their song.  The Little Fireman then approaches Ted who still is on the telephone. 
LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (With a happy look on his face and waves his eyebrows as he points to a weight bag set above them says).  "I'll pull the string and on of the bags will come down!"

Ted then puts down the telephone receiver and looks at the Little Fireman and motions with his finger at what the Little Fireman suggested and shook his head in agreement.

TED to THE LITTLE FIREMAN:  (Points at the weight bags and says with glee on his face).  "Yes!"

The Little Fireman then goes over and pulls a rope that is connected to one of the weight bags as Ted is looking up at it.

TED to THE LITTLE FIREMAN:  (With glee in his eyes and mischief on his face as he waves his hand at the Little Fireman).  "Okay!"

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON THE LITTLE FIREMAN:

The Little Fireman with a look of mischief on his face and goes over and pulls on a rope that is connected to one of the weight bags, it comes crashing down, and is suppose to hit "The Singing Stooges."  It misses them and lands on the table top.

The Little Fireman is sitting on a chair with a look of madness on his face and the weight bag missing "The Singing Stooges."

TED to THE LITTLE FIREMAN:  (With wonderment in his eyes and a perplexed look on his face says).  "Come here, come here!"

The Little Fireman gets out of his chair and happily walks over to Ted.

LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (As he points to another weight bag and has a suggestive look on his face says as he points to another weight bag).  "Why don't you bring them under the weight bags and I'll pull the rope and it will hit them."

Ted then agrees happily with the Little Fireman at his suggestion.

Ted the grabs the happily singing Shemp with his eyes closed and a contented look on his face enjoying the song, Shemp who in return brings with him Harry who brings with him Larry.  The Stooges are still standing their really wrapped in their song and have no recollection at all what is about to take place walk under the weight bags.

TED to THE LITTLE FIREMAN:  (With happiness on his face as he points to the weight bags).  "All right!"

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON THE LITTLE FIREMAN:

The Little Fireman with glee in his eyes and mischief on his face once again happily pulls a rope that is connected to the weight bags.  Again another weight bag comes crashing down to hit "The Singing Stooges", but once again it misses its mark and comes crashing onto the floor just in front of them.

When this weight bag has misses "The Singing Stooges" Ted now has look on his face of what to do next.

TED to THE LITTLE FIREMAN:  (As he has thought of his suggestion and is totally happy with his idea says).  "Come here a minute will you please, Deke!"

The Little Fireman once again gets up from his chair and happy walks over to Ted and raises his eyebrows and looks at Ted happily.

LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (With one last feeble suggestion as he has a look of mischief on his face suggests).  "Why don't you back them up more under the weight bags!"

Ted then really happy and has a look of glee in his eyes waves his hands at the Little Fireman in total agreement.

Once again, "The Singing Stooges" who are still standing there with their eyes closed, in a total state of contentment, still not knowing what is happening around them.  Ted then pushes back "The Singing Stooges", and lower their heads to get them centred under the weight bags.

Ted then waves his hand at the Little Fireman in agreement and signals him to go on.  Ted the puts his hands over his ears as he signals the Little Fireman to pull the rope.

The Little Fireman is now once again sitting in his chair.  With glee in his eyes and mischief on his face and raising his eyebrows in mischief.  He pulls the rope on the last weight bag that was suppose to hit "The Singing Stooges", but instead it hits the Little Fireman right on his head which causes him to fall off his chair backwards. 

After The Stooges were done singing, they were mumbling to one another in total agreement about how their song turned out.  All the while, The Stooges had no recollection at all that Ted and the Little Fireman were trying to hit them with weight bags.

TED to THE LITTLE FIREMAN:  (Laughing and waving his hands in funess says).  "Oh, you got it, how'd ya like it?"

Ted then turns around and is looking at "The Singing Stooges".  Noticing that The Stooges had no idea at all what was going on.

TED to HARRY, SHEMP, and LARRY:  (With a look of wonderment in his eyes and on his face).  "How'd you like it, he got it instead of ----?"

SHEMP to TED:  (With worry on his face and in his eyes and trying to figure out what Ted was talking about says).  "All right?"

All the while that Ted and the Little Fireman were trying to hit "The Singing Stooges" with the weight bags.  The Stooges were so happily and contently enjoying their song they had no idea of what was going on.

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON QUEENIE:

She is still sitting at the receptionist desk of "Schmidt's Costume Shoppe".  The poor, patient Mr. D. Quincy Throckmorton is looking in a hand held mirror adjusting his glasses in a state of boredom.

The whole time that Ted and the Little Fireman were trying to hit Harry, Shemp, and Larry with the weight bags she was on the telephone yelling at Ted with no recollection at al at what just took place.

QUEENIE to TED:  (Still on the telephone, chewing her gum, mischief on her face and shouting at Ted).  "I'm sick and tired, and I'm fed up with it ...."

TED to LARRY, SHEMP, and HARRY:  Raising his hands and has a look of dismay on his face as he goes back to the telephone).  "Oh, I forgot Queenie!"

Ted then returns back and sits down at the table and picks up the telephone while Harry, Shemp, and Larry also sit back down, they are leaning slightly forward and looking a Ted.

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON QUEENIE:

QUEENIE to TED:  (Still chawing on her gum and has pure mischief on her face and she is yelling at Ted).  "So, if you're gonna hang around the firehouse, instead of being with me, i'll make it hot for you.  There's nothing you can say worth listening to.  I can, hun?  I'll show you where the right cans are.  You don't know how to treat a lady you big bozo!"

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON TED:

TED to QUEENIE:  (With a bit of madness on his face and a hint of madness in his voice and waving his hands and is yelling at her).  "Now, listen baby, hey, you can't talk to me like that, we're not married yet!"

Queenie is now so mad at Ted that she sets the telephone receiver on fire.  Ted then puts the hot receiver down on the table and reaches into his pocket and gets out a cigarette and lights it from the burning telephone.

TED to HARRY, SHEMP, and LARRY:  (Shaking his hand like they are hot and with a look of wonderment on his face says in general discussion).  "Woo, is she burning up!  Lookie here!"

Ted then sets down the 'burning telephone receiver.'

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON "THE BURNING TELEPHONE:"

TED to LARRY, SHEMP, and HARRY:  (With worry on his face and in his eyes and waving his hands at the telephone like putting out a fire).  "We gotta get over to Queenie's fast, I'm afraid this is a special alarm!  Come on boys!"

Ted, Harry, Shemp, and Larry are getting up from their table and are rushing over to one of the fire trucks and are going over to "Schmidt's Costume Shoppe" in a hurry to see Queenie and try to shut her up.

HARRY, SHEMP, and LARRY to TED:  (As they point their fingers in the air in agreement with Ted says).  "Right, I'm with you, let's get out of here, let's go over there!"

Ted and The Stooges are now on their fire truck and are rushing over to see Queenie.  The Little Fireman is following behind on foot, after he has locked the fire barn with a giant lock.

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON TED AND THE STOOGES:

HARRY to TED:  (Shemp is standing in front of Ted and Larry is behind Harry all with blank looks on their faces says in general discussion as they are on the fire truck).  "Hey, this is the hottest June we've had since last July."

TED to HARRY:  (With a look of worry on his face and wiping some sweat off of his forehead says).  "You're telling me, I know it's hot!"

SHEMP to TED, LARRY, and HARRY:  (In general discussion, slightly laughing and a mischief look on his face).  Yeah, it was so hot last night, I had to get up and take off my socks."

TED to SHEMP:  (With Larry and Harry behind him with a mischief look on his face as he taps Shemp on the shoulder laughing).  "Ah, cut it out!"

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON THE FIRE TRUCK:

It is speeding down the road with pedestrians on both sides of the street watching it go by.

As they are speeding to get to "Schmidt's Costume Shoppe" to see Queenie.  Queenie is still on the telephone yelling at who she thinks is Ted but is nothing but an empty telephone.

QUEENIE to the TELEPHONE:  (Still chewing her gum, look of mischief on her face and yelling loudly).  "If you think you're gonna get away with this you're crazy, yeah, who do you think you are anyway?"

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON THE COSTUME SHOPPE AND TED AND THE STOOGES:

The fire truck comes to a screeching hault.  Ted is standing up and Shemp, Harry, and Larry loose their balance and Ted is grabbing them to help them up.

TED to SHEMP, HARRY, and LARRY:  (Shouting in general discussion and with worry on his face and in his eyes asks).  "Okay, is everything under control?  Come on, stand up, stand up."

SHEMP to TED:  (With mischief in his eyes and on his face is slightly laughing says as they are straightening up their hats).  "Yeah!"

TED, to SHEMP, HARRY, and LARRY:  (With a look of wonderment on his face and question in his eyes as he points down the street).  "Look!"

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON SOME PEDESTRIANS:

The Little Fireman is running down the street joyfully and with a happy look on his face and is holding onto his hat.  He is catching up to Ted and The Stooges as they are approaching "Schmidt's Costume Shoppe."

As the Little Fireman reaches the fire truck with Ted, Harry, Shemp, and Larry totally tired out and raising his eyebrows in happiness as he is getting laughed at by Ted and The Stooges.

TED to HARRY, SHEMP, and LARRY:  (About the Little Fireman always catching up and in determination wanting to be part of their team, laughs in general discussion).  "Ha, ha, maybe, I'm wrong!"

Harry, Shemp, and Larry are still on the fire truck and Ted is walking over to "Schmidt's Costume Shoppe" to see Queenie.

SHEMP to PETE THE DRIVER:  (Shouts in general discussion as he points his finger upwards towards the sky says).  "Onward, boys!"

The fire truck takes off with Harry, Shemp, and Larry falling down and the Little Fireman is trying to get on board but once again he unsuccessfully makes it and falls onto the street.

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON QUEENIE:

She is still chewing her gum, with mischief on her face and in her eyes, shouting at the empty telephone, who she thinks is Ted.

QUEENIE to TED?:  "And furthermore, you mug, as far as I am concerned, I don't care if I never see you again, do you understand?, Good-bye!"

Just after Queenie hangs up the telephone, Ted enters the shoppe.  While the poor, patient Mr. D. Quincy Throckmorton who waited through all the telephone shannigans starts to leave but returns when Ted enters in.

TED to QUEENIE:  (Holding his hat, smiling and with glee in his eyes, states as he waves his hands).  "Hello!"

QUEENIE to TED:  (Sitting in her chair at the receptionist desk with her hands on her waist, madness in her eyes and on her face, still chewing her gum, shouts).  "So, I've been talking to myself, why you great big ----, Oh, I want you to meet Mr. Throckmorton, he's an aviator".  (refering to the customer who waited throught the entire telephone tit-for-tat).  

Ted has a perplexed look on his face and madness in his voice as he is holding his hat shouts to Queenie.

TED to QUEENIE:  (In a thorough state of madness).  "And you called out the fire department to tell me taht?"  What did you say his name was?"

CUSTOMER to TED:  (As he tips his hat at Ted and has sound of pride in his voice).  "Throckmorton, The Quincy Throckmorton."

TED to MR. THROCKMORTON:  (With his hands on his waist and determined look on his face and smiling and slightly laughing).  "But what's the name in the old country?"

MR. THROCKMORTON to TED:  (In pride and with Queenie sitting at her desk listening).  "Why, I was born here!"

TED to MR. THROCKMORTON:  (Supporting a blank look on his face and mischief in his voice and smiling says).  "Oh, one of the old Gashouse Throckmortons?"

Ted the with a happy look on his face, pats him on the shoulder and shakes his hand in friendship.

QUEENIE to TED:  (Shouting, and look at him longinly says).  "Oh, I forgot to tell you Mr. Schmidt wants to see you right away!"

TED to QUEENIE:  (Bending down to her and patting her on the back whispers).  "Get him out of here as soon as possible."

CAMERA CLOSE-UP ON MR. THROCKMORTON:

He is still standing by the front desk holding onto his cane.  The Little Fireman is now entering the shoppe.

As Ted is going to see Mr. Schmidt, the Little Fireman approaches Ted and reaches into his uniform suit jacket to remove a piece of paper.

LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (With a look of happiness on his face and smiling and raising his eyebrows in glee says).  "I've got something very important that I want to show you!"

Ted then pushes the paper back into the Little Firemans uniform, pats him on the shoulder while the two of them have worried looks on their faces.

TED to THE LITTLE FIREMAN:  (With a scared look on his face and question in his eyes says madly).  "If you keep this up, I'll have you put back into your cage!"

The Little Fireman is now putting the piece of paper back into his uniform suit jacket.  Has a sad look on his face and shiskfully walks away.

Ted is now entering Mr. Schmidt's office, where Mr. Schmidt is sitting at his desk with some of his inventions and statues on the desk has a really sad look on his face and in his voice.

TED to OTTO, (Mr. Schmidt):  (As he closes the door.  Patting him on the back in happiness and a smile on his face and glee in his voice).  "Hello, boss, what is it?"

OTTO to TED:  (With a sad look on his face and feeling totally unsuccessful and sadness in his voice says).  "Teddie, today the creditors come to take charge of the business."

TED to OTTO:  (Worried and shouting in determination and sounding reassuring says).  "No, they cannot do that to you!"

OTTO to TED:  (Sighing, sadness on his face and in his voice says).  "No, they done it all ready!"

TED to OTTO:  (As Otto starts to leave feeling hurt and unsuccessful.  Is grabbed by the arm by Ted who is supporting a look of carryingness on his face and support in his voice).  "I'll kick them outta here!"

OTTO to TED:  (Thoroughly hurt and disgusted sounding)."no, no, no, no, no, hun, a failure after twenty years."

TED to OTTO:  (With a smile on his face and reassurance in his voice says).  "Maybe, maybe, Louise can think of something!"

OTTO to TED:  (With a worried look on his face and a worried sounding voice as he waves his hands and sighs).  "no, no Louise must never know!"

TED to OTTO:  (With a look of care on his face and hurt in his voice says).  "But she's gotta find it out sooner or later."

OTTO to TED:  (In a total state of giving up and hurt in his voice sighs).  "Maybe something happens, and earthquake, or the world comes to an end!"

Otto is sitting at his desk sad and worried and looking at some of his inventions feeling totally unsuccessful and Ted is by his side feeling hurt and worried.

Ted then tries to cheer up Otto by looking at some of the things on his desk says in a happy and reassuring state with a smile on his face and glee in his eyes.

TED to OTTO:  (Smiling and laughing as he picks up some of Otto's inventions states).  "Say, how about these gadgets and inventions, someday they outta make you alot of money!"

OTTO to TED:  (In a voice and look on his face that says, I'm giving up, I am a total failure).  "No, that only happens in books, and movin' pictures."

TED to OTTO:  (Smiling and laughing and asks in a supportive voice as he picks up a "Feather Duster Type Thingie. asks).  "But, what is this boss?"

OTTO to TED:  (laughing a bit and sounding a bit more cheerie says).  "It's a little idea of mine."  I call it my "Gravy Removal Brush."

Otto is now happily demonstrating it with pride and joy and laughing a tad.  He hooks it Ted's wrist with the clamp.

Otto tells Ted you use it to wipe the gravy off of your lapel when you are eating stew.

OTTO to TED:  (As he happily has his invention hooked onto Ted's wrist and puts a spoon in Ted's hand says).  "I'll show you!"

TED to OTTO:  (With a dumbfounded look on his face and question in his voice says).  "I must eat?"

Ted then takes the spoon and pretends to be taking a bite of stew, then as he is going for his second bite, his lapel is being wiped off with the "Gravy Removal Brush."

OTTO to TED:  (Smiling and has a look of glee in his eyes and pride in his voice says).  "You see, when you spill the gravy, it wipes it off on the down stroke."

TED to OTTO:  (Laughing and showing happiness on his face as he tries it again as he takes his third bite of stew).  "That's very good, good, that's very good!"

Ted then takes his fourth bite of stew using "The Gravy Removal Brush" one mor time saysin happiness and agreement).  "On the down stroke that's very, very, good!"

TED to OTTO:  (Laughing and waving his hands happily and showing glee in his eyes and on his face says).  "But you haven't a couple of sponges that I can put over my eyes in case that I eat grapefruit?"

Otto then laughs with Ted loudly and with happiness on his face and glee in his voice.

OTTO to TED:  (At the time forgetting about the creditors, laughs out loudly and is in a total state of glee says).  "Ah, here is my pet!"

Otto with a look of glee on his face and laughing and totally full of pride, as he picks up a top hat on a plastic base and explains to Ted what it is.

TED to OTTO:  (With his hands on his waist and a look of question on his face and has a questionable sounding voice says).  "That's the pet?"

OTTO to TED:  (Stands up with a proud look on his face and a sound of proudness in his voice says).  "Wait, I show you."

Otto then takes the top hat on the plastic base and demonstrated it.  He puts in on his head and says this is "My Self Tipping Hat."

TED to OTTO:  (Waving his hands and has a sound of glee in his voice and in his eyes laughingly states).  "What I am looking for is a self tipping waiter."

Otto then laughs with Ted about the waiter joke.

TED to OTTO:  (With his hands behind his back and a happy look on his face and laughing slightly asks).  "What's the idea, what's the idea with the high hat?"

Otto says to Ted, I call it "My Self Tipping Hat Invention."

OTTO to TED:  (With a look of pride on his face and a proud sounding voice as he demonstrates it, he backs up a bit).  "When you're walking down the street, on a cold winters day, when you meet a lady, you don't have to take the hands out of the pockets to tip your hat."

Otto then pulls a string on the back on the hat that raises it up off the plastic pedestal.

The mean and nasty customer is now gone.  Gus and Otto are standing there with deep hurtful looks on their faces and sounds of hurt and unsuccessfulness in their voices.

OTTO to GUS:  (Reaches over and pats Gus on his shoulder apologetically and saying in a low voice tone in apology).  "I'm sorry Gus, I loose my temper!"

GUS to OTTO:  (In a reassuring sounding voice and look of understanding on his face as he pats Otto on the shoulder).  "It's all right Otto, I don't blame you!"

OTTO to GUS:  (Being mad at himself and has madness and dismay and give up  in his voice says).  "Couple of fine businessmen we are.  My place is gone, and your's is going!"  

GUS to OTTO:  (Sitting in a chair next to Otto says in agreement to Otto's statement as he is looking at the floor).  "Yeah, yeah!"

GUS to OTTO:  (Really hurt and forlorned says in a quiet pitch voice).  "You remember how mad we was when we landed from the other side, when they told us we could never be president because we wasn't born in the country?"

OTTO to GUS:  (Shaking his head in agreement to Gus' statement as he is folding up the tablecloth that he is holding and says mornfully).  "Hun, we could be born anyplace, and we'd still be a couple of chumps.  You know, this restaurant business that's getting to be a racket, the people, they want something different, New!, Look it!"

Otto is pointing over to a new restaurant that is called "Spaghetti Joe's."  The customers are going in by the droves, because the maiter-dee is a tall man that is welcoming the people at the door singing Italian opra as their sales gimmick.

OTTO to GUS:  (Patting him happily and says).  "Gustoff!"

GUS to OTTO:  (As he takes a broken stogie from his shirt pocket and says).  "What, she's slows."

OTTO to GUS:  (In reference to the Italian Singing Spaghetti Man).  "Why couldn't we do something like that!"

Gus then takes a quick look over again at "Spaghetti Joe's."

OTTO to GUS:  (With a look of determination on his face and says as he looks around the place says).  "You call this place "The Yodel Inn" don't you?"

OTTO to GUS:  (With a perplexed look on his face and a determined sounding voice says in wonderment).  "Then why don't you put some Swiss atmosphere here!"

GUS to OTTO:  (With a look of dismay on his face and a voice that sounds hurt and that he is giving up).  "Swiss cheese, is the only atmosphere I can afford!"

OTTO to GUS:  (With a look on his face and in his voice as he looks the place of reassurance and don't give up).  "Auk, look at your backyard, we can fix that up fancy, we paint fake mountains on the fence, well they'd look like mountains but these fake the we dress up the waiters like mountain climbers.

GUS to OTTO:  (With a questionable look on his face and wonderment in his voice as he is agreeing with Otto and feeling a tad more upbeat voice says in reference to what Otto just said).  "Fake mountains, oh, imitation, yah, but where are we going to get the Swiss clothes?"

OTTO ot GUS:  (Smiling mischievously and with a carrying and detemined look on his face says).  "Tonight, when it's dark, I go back to the costume shoppe, I sneak in the back way, well, you leave that to me, I'll get the Swiss clothes."

Gust and Otto then walk to the back of the restaurant with supportive arms around each other.

It is now that night and Otto is now sneaking back into his own costume shoppe, through the back door to get the Swiss clothes.  He is looking around to see if anyone is watching.  He then pries open the window to a side storage area where his burglar alarm is at.  He then steps on the button and gets hit in the head with the mallet, then he gets kicked with the giant shoe and then he sets the rest on it into motion which causes Louise who is asleep in Otto's bed to get hit with the watering cand and she wakes up and goes to see what is going on.

Louise in then wakened up by the water and yells, 'oh,' she then looks out of Otto's bedroom window and notices him spinning around on the turnstable of his own invention.

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (Looking out of his window with a look of hurt on her face and question in her voice, shouts in determination).  "Uncle Otto, Uncle Otto!"

Louise then hurries down stairs to help her Uncle Otto and to see if he is all right.  Uncle Otto is trying to get up but pulls a lever that has activated a large glove device which has hit him in the face.    

Uncle Otto is now getting up and seeing stars and has a dazed look on his face and a cookoo bird is chirping in his head.

UNCLE OTTO to LOUISE:  (With mischief in his voice and a mischief look on his face whispers as he smiles).  "I've come to rob the shoppe!"

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (In a questionable state says).  "To rob the shoppe?"

Otto is now walking up the stairs of a back entrance way to enter the store with Louise by his side.

UNCLE OTTO to LOUISE:  (Explaining his "robbery" says quietly and mischievously).  "Klein and me thought we'd dress the waiters up in Tyrolean costumes, the restaurant would look more Swiss like, and we could do more business!"

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (With a scared look on her face and a tad madness in her voice and somewhat worried says).  "Oh, Uncle Otto!"

Louise is looking behind to see if anyone is watching as the two of them are sneaking into the shoppe through a back window.

UNCLE OTTO to LOUISE:  (In a low voice and dismay on his face).  "Yah, yah!"

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (In a total state of madness says).  "So you decided to steal from here?"

UNCLE OTTO to LOUISE:  (With sadness on his face and wonderment in his voice says quietly).  "Auk, Louise, that ain't stealing, this is my place, that fellow can't come in here and take this place away from me, he is the thief."

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (Leaning on his shoulder and waving her finger at him and a playful look on her face and a playful, mischievous look on her face says slightly in a stern state).  "Now you know it's wrong to take things that don't belong to you!"

UNCLE OTTO to LOUISE:  (With a look of defeat on his face and says quietly as he is glancing at the floor).  "Yeah, yeah!"

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (In a state of mischief and happiness rests her chin on his shoulder and smiling mischievously).  "How many costumes do you want?"

Louise and Otto are both in full happy moods as they sneak into the store to get the Swiss costumes.

Louise is now entering into the store getting the costumes while Uncle Otto is on look out duty.

UNCLE OTTO to LOUISE:  (Smiling from ear to ear and gleefully). "Un, hun!"

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (Happily).  "I've got 'em!"

Uncle Otto is so thoroughly happy about getting the costumes and sneaking away with them is not paying attention to where he is stepping to exit out the back window, steps on the button that activates his burglar alarm, getting hit in the head with the mallet.  He jumps out of the way just in time to void getting hit with the giant shoe.

LOUISE to UNCLE OTTO:  (As she is in a total state of happiness with the costumes in her hands and is handing them to him says).  "Becareful, Uncle Otto!"

UNCLE OTTO to LOUISE:  (Both of them laughing says in reference to his burglar alarm).  "By golly, you know that works good!"

MR. CARLSON to TED:  (Looking at him a bit madly and has a questionable sounding voice says).  "You have?"

TED to MR. CARLSON:  (With a look of friendship on his face and carryingness in his voice as he pats him on the shoulder says).  "Now, here is the idea, you and I will wear the same kind of costumes, and we'll switch at the dance."

MR. CARLSON to TED:  (With a look of thankfulness on his face and a thankful sounding voice says in friendship).  "You mean, I'll wear the same kind of costume as you, and you will let me take your place with Louise?"

TED to MR. CARLSON:  (Patting his shoulder and in a total state of happiness).  "Certainly!"

MR. CARLSON to TED:  (Thoroughly happy and smiling in glee and happiness in his eyes as he has patted Ted on the shoulder says).  "Ah, Ted, you're a peach!"

Ted is now giving Mr. Carlson a laugh and smile of friendshipness. 

Now, for the third time Ted is being approached by the same waiter in regards to Ted's meal order.  As Mr. Carlson is sitting by Ted in a thoroughly happy and "dreamy" state.

TED to the WAITER:  (Looking at waiter with squinted eyes, madness on his face thinking this waiter is totally stupid as he points a finger at him)  "That roast beef still goes!"

The waiter for the third time shouts to the chef Ted's order 'beef on!'

As Ted is sitting by the out of this world happy Mr. Carlson, the Little Fireman walks in and taps Ted on his shoulder.

TED to the LITTLE FIREMAN:  (Looking at him with a perplexed look on his face says).  "Don't order roast beef, will ya?"

The Little Fireman smiles, raises his eyebrows and shakes his head in agreement to not order roast beef.

Mr. Carlson and Ted are both looking at the Little Fireman with carrying looks on their faces.

LITTLE FIREMAN to TED:  (Gives him a look of question on his face as he slightly cocks his head and tries once again to pull the same piece of paper from his uniform jacket for the sixth time says).  "Please, I have something important that I wanna show you!"

Mr. Carlson is sitting there looking blankly and a bit happy at the Little Fireman has a look of wonderment on his face.

TED to the LITTLE FIREMAN:  (Now supporting a mad mood and is squinting at him madly as he pushes the Little Firemans hand and says slightly shouting).  "Put it back, put it back!"

The Little Fireman is now leaving, giving Ted a perplexed look and showing hurt in his eyes as he gives Ted a look of grimace and Ted is looking at him madly and Mr. Carlson is looking at him in carryingness.

TED to MR. CARLSON:  (Giving Mr. Carlson a look of dumbfoundedness and says in a state of slight madness as he is pointing his finger at the Little Firman).  "How do you like that, all day I work with him and he won't leave me alone!"

Harry and Larry are arguing with each other.

LARRY to HARRY:  (Mad and waving his hands at him says).  "I'm standing right here in my position and you reach over and hit me."

HARRY to LARRY:  (With his hands on his waist looking at Larry madly says).  "The point is you should of."

SHEMP to HARRY and LARRY:  (Yelling in a perplexed state).  "Wait a minute, wait a minute, cut it out!"

LARRY to SHEMP and HARRY:  (With a hurt look on his face and is yelling).  "Wait a minute here!"

Just as Harry gets ready to hit Larry in the face Ted is yelling at them to shut them up.

The Gig and Gag Trio are still fighting as Ted is shouting at them.

TED to the GIG and GAG TRIO:  (Yelling at the top of his lungs with his arms crossed).  "Wait a minute, wait a minute boys, wait a minute, stop yelling, stop yelling, please!"

Ted is now referencing to Larry.

TED to LARRY:  (In a concerning manner).  "You on the end, say here, come here!"

Larry is now slowly walking over to Ted with a blank and dismay look on his face.

TED to LARRY:  (In a state of question with his arms crossed and pointing a finger at Larry says).  "What da, what do you do, what do you do son?"

LARRY to TED:  (In a low dragged out monotone voice says).  "I'm a dancer."

TED to LARRY:  (With a quizzical look on his face and also in a low monotone voice says).  "A what?"

LARRY to TED:  (Supporting a blank stare on his face and still in his low, dragged out monotone voice says).  "A dancer."

TED to LARRY:  (With a quizzical look on his face and question in his voice says).  "Oh, you're a dancer!"

LARRY to TED:  (In his low, dragged out monotone voice says with a blank stare on his face).  "Yeah!"

TED to LARRY:  (In a sheepish sounding, questionable tone of voice and touches Larry's shoulder in friendship says).  "Are you mad at me?"

LARRY to TED:  (With a blank stare on his face and still using his low, dragged out monotone voice says).  "No!"

TED to LARRY:  (With a look of wonderment on his face and a question in his voice asks).  "What da, what kind of dance are you going to do?"

LARRY to TED:  (Still supporting that blank stare look on his face and still using his low, dragged out monotone voice says).  "The Elevator Dance!"

TED to LARRY:  (Clutching his hands and has a questionable look on his face and question in his voice says).  "The Elevator Dance?"

LARRY to TED:  (With a blank stare on his face and still in his low, dragged out monotone voice says as he slowly pivots around and points a finger and looks at the the floor says).  "A little music, and away I'll go."

TED to LARRY:  (With a look of wonder on his face.  In a slower tone of voice says).  "The way you'll go.  You mean go about the music?"

Ted now summons the band to play as he steps in the background.

TED to the BAND LEADER:  (Pointing his finger and slightly laughing says to the band leader).  "Give him a treb!"

Larry is now performing "The Elevator Dance."  He is standing there with a sheepish smil on his face, slightly bent over and starriing into nowhere.  Harry and Shemp are playing accompament music.  Harry is dancing and playing his hands, clapping in a rhythmic manner and clapping on his mouth while he is making fish faces.  Shemp is dancing and looking sheepishly as he takes out two sheets of sandpaper from his sock and is rubbing them together that sounds like he is playing on an old "washboard".

Ted is standing there with a perplexed look on his face with his arms crossed and finger on his chin as he is trying to figure out what "The Elevator Dance" is. 

Ted has now approached Larry and puts his hand on Larrys shoulder as he summons the band.
