- Hello.

- Oh, hello. Say, better you hurry and get dressed. And wear your new suit. We're going out to dinner at the Embassy Club.

- Oh, don't worry, it won't cost us a nickel. We got invited.

- Who invited us?

- Ms. Peggy Stephenson.

- She called up a little while ago and said her father was a friend of yours. She sounded like a nice kid.

- She's going with some boyfriend of hers and asked us to come on a double date, as guests.

- You told her we could go?

- You bet I did.

- Well, call her up and tell her we can't go. Tell her I made another engagement. Tell her anything.

- Say, who is this Peggy Stephenson?

- She's a girl.

- I didn't think she was a kangaroo.

- Where did you meet her?

- I told you, the night I got back and you weren't here. Al Stephenson and his wife took me home. She's their daughter.

- I'd never seen her before.

- Or since?

- Listen, babe, if you think you're gonna make anything out of this, you're due for a big disappointment.

- I just don't like to be accepting handouts when we're broke.

- Well, if that's it, you better get used to it, because I don't see how we're gonna get much fun on your 32.50 a week.
