Transcript

I don't believe that's our ring. I know this llama, I believe you're right. No, see. Hello, Johnum Downstone. This is Ramen Abner. Let's see what's going on, Dallin Pine Ridge. Well, even Lums Trump card, a pretended nervous breakdown, failed to get him back into the store in bakery.

So he's just about at the end of his list of plans to arouse Abner's sympathy. Abner, on the other hand, is having quite a struggle running the store alone, and is on the verge of dropping his stern pose and taking them back.

As we look in on the little community today, we find Abner in the Jotam Down store. Mousy is loading the delivery truck, and Grand Pappy Spears is sitting at the library table reading. Hey Abner, come over here and listen to this man. See how I'm getting along.

Lee Bond, Piers, Lee Bond, E. Mere, Oondong, Archon, Lee Joon, Philly. Then I'll say I ain't got time to listen to you or in a French language. Howie Monsoon, Howie, Madam, Isabella. I don't know what you want to learn it for anyway, wasting your time on there.

Man, it's good to know where the language is, Abner. Never can tell when you might run up at the infringement. He might have something important to tell me, and I don't want to miss out on it.

Bonjour, Tris Bane. Well, study to yourself, Grandpa. I got too much work to do around here to listen to you. Can't hardly keep up with this for way anyway, since long, ain't you? I taught you hard, mousy, great at healthy.

Can't he do the work? He quite not so loud. I don't want mousy to hear. Just to be honest, though, he's worse and no help at all. Yeah. Yeah, I have to tell him everything to do, and then I have to show him how to do it, and finally wind up doing it myself.
