Transcript

I believe that's our ring. I know it, lama. I believe you're right. No, see. Hello, Johnum Downstorm. This is Ramen Abner. And now... Let's see what's going on down in Pine Ridge. Whom's big hunting expedition failed utterly yesterday when Cedric brought a wild mountain lion out of a cave sneaking it to be urban, the escape line.

So urban is still running loose. Cedric is badly scratched up and the two big game hunters have moved from their tent back to the Johnham Down store. As we look in on the little community today, we find Lum and Abner in the store. Grandpappy Spears is just entering.

Yeah, honey. Hey, honey. Hey, anybody here? Oh, hello Grandpap. Come on back. Yeah, here we are back here, Grandpap. Proud to see you. Come on back and sit with us. Hey, what would you fella doing out in that tin you can't yes you did.

Was you ever camping? No, he was on a sofairy. Sofairy? Yeah. Sofairy. Grandpa, that's a big game hunting thing. You wouldn't understand it. Oh, hunting, huh? What'd you get? Well, Cedric got a wild mountain lion by mistake and well, he got himself skinned up, pulling out of a tree, and I got sick from eating raw cranberries all day.

You don't have to tell all that to everybody comes in here. Well, it's a true thing, Nick. Well, just forget about it. Better not discuss it no more. Oh, why don't you and Grandpa play checkers or something?

Why, sure. How about it, Grandpa? Why, sure. Love two. Love two. Get out the board. Now, wait a minute. So, what's the matter with me? This is my busy day. You're a busy day. Yeah, I forgot what to come in here for.
