Blanche, I dropped by to ask your advice about something. I've got a problem. Yes, I know. What's he don't know? Oh, he hasn't done anything yet. But Saturday he's gonna have a birthday. birthday. Would you have a party? Oh no, no. Just a usual cry of celebration. George and me and a zombie cake.

Can't you bake a good cake? Oh, the cake isn't a zombie when I bake it. It's just that George has so many candles on his cake now, and he can't blow them out. He has to throw water on him.

I see. Poor George. Every year he has less and less wind and more and more candles. But that didn't sound like my problem. What will I get for him? Gracie, why don't you give George something different than original this birthday?

Like I did Harry. What did you get Harry? Well, we have a movie camera, so I took pictures of our little one and called it a day in the life of our baby. Then I gave the film to Harry.
