us up.
- This is not him, is it?
- Gee, I hope not.
- Are you Gus's son?
- I'm Owen.
- You the shower curtain fella?
- Yeah. Del Griffith.
How are you?
- This is Neal Page from Chicago.
- Hi.
Pleased to meet you both.
I'm to drive you to Wichita
to catch a train?
Yeah, we'd appreciate it.
- Train don't run out of Wichita.
- Hm?
'Lessen you're a hog or cattle.
People train
runs out of S-Stubbville.
That'll be fine.
That'll be just fine.
Leave it be.
Get your lazy behind out
and put that trunk in the back.
- Oh, no. We've got it.
- It's very heavy.
She don't mind. She's short
and skinny, but she's strong.
Her first baby... come out sideways.
She didn't scream or nothing.
Isn't that something?
You're a real trouper.
We've got it already. It's done.
Stubbville's
a little further than Wichita.
- How much further?
- 30 miles.
Maybe 40.
No more than 45, though,
depending on which way he goes.
On the back roads it could be 70.
Give me the glove.
Ow! Just nipped the little part. Ooh!
Give him the goddam glove!
Are we there yet?
No. A little way to go yet.
Beautiful country, though, isn't it?
What's the temperature?
One.
Thanks.
They didn't have two together.
You got to be kidding me.
Oh, I knew it.
I... The secretary was new,
and I explained it. Oh... I'm sorry.
- I think they're just full.
- It's the holidays, I guess.
Hey, we're lucky we got a ticket.
Yeah. So, if I don't see you again...
Want to get together
for a drink in the bar car?
- I'm gonna get some sleep.
- You sure?
Yeah. Anyway, it's been interesting.
That's the understatement
of the year.
And thanks for the ticket.
Neal! I need your address. I got
to pay you back for this ticket.
- Ticket's a gift.
- No, come on. What's the address?
Del, it's a gift.
Happy holidays.
Same to you.
Hi. Going home for Thanksgiving?
- Yeah.
- Me, too.
Just gonna make it.
What did you do here?
Did he say he smelled smoke?
You walk a mile and a half
to the highway,
the trucks will take you
into Jefferson City.
You're in a pretty lousy mood, huh?
To say the least.
You ever travelled by bus before?
Hm. Your mood's probably not
gonna improve much.
# Well, I got you in my sights
# Just one of those nights with you
# And if you wanna fool around
# Well, let me pin you
to the ground... #
Neal, Neal. Check that out.
# All the little boys are into soul
# And all the girls wanna rock'n'roll
# We all wanna dance... #
Beats a movie on a plane, huh?
Why don't you take a picture
You got busted.
Oh, that was good.
This is as good a time as any
to tell you,
our tickets are only good
to St Louis.
St Louis to Chi-town is booked
tighter than Tom Thumb's ass.
#... a glorious Thanksgiving day... #
All right!
That was fun, wasn't it?
All right. Who wants to sing a tune?
Who's got a song?
- I got one, uh...
- Neal Page has got one!
# Three coins in a fountain
# Each one seeking... #
You know this! #... Happiness
# Thrown by three hopeful lovers... #
No?
# Flintstones, meet the Flintstones
# They're the modern
Stone Age family
# From the town of Bedrock
# They're a page right outta history
# When you're with the Flintstones
# Have a yabba-dabba-do time
# A yabba-do time
- # You'll have a gay old time #
- Wilma!
I'm with the
American Light and Fixture Company,
jewellery division,
and I've got the deal of a lifetime.
This is your Diane Sawyer
autographed earring.
You ever watch 60 Minutes?
Thanks.
This is Czechoslovakian ivory.
That's it. That's $5.
Great.
This is your
Walter Cronkite moon ring.
Thank you.
They are filled with helium
so they're light.
Thank you.
This is a Darryl Strawberry earring.
All right!
These are very special earrings.
These were originally handcrafted
for the grand wizard of China
in the fourth century.
These aren't the originals
but they are very good replicas.
They're $5 a pair, two for $7.
