MARTIN. Kate is really showing remarkable restraint. I'd have expected her to squeeze enough out of a mink coat to dress Ted up a bit. [_All this time_ TIPPY _has been wiping dog with one towel after another. He now gets up and leads dog to yard._] TIPPY. Now I must hang Itzy out to dry. MARTIN. God, haven't you dried that cur enough? TIPPY. Him must be ventilated so him will smell sweet. Him's mama rubs her nose in him and her is very particular. [_He goes out with dog_. MARTIN _begins picking up the strewn array of used towels_, TIPPY _comes back._] Thanks, old man. [_Takes the towels._] Want to dump the tub for me? [MARTIN _carries tub into kitchen,_ TIPPY _continues cleaning up_. TED _enters with_ KATE. _She is richly dressed and has the mink coat_, TED _has on a complete new outfit: suit, hat shoes, topcoat. Everything. The coat is gray; suit brown; hat gray. And there is a price tag on tail of overcoat._ TIPPY _stares in astonishment._] Do my eyes deceive me? KATE. Hello, flea-killer.--How do you like it? TIPPY. I must have slept a few years. [TED _removes coat and lays it on table with hat._] KATE. Slept? |
