Two Families
-I’ve spoken to Mrs Murphy.
-How Fifties! Mrs Murphy’s Boarding House.
-Not really. Just a pretty spacious bungalow with an empty
in-law apartment.
-I see Dad more as an intrepid captain! Pushing that shopping cart through billowing seas!
-Uh huh. Well, Mrs Murphy’ll take three hundred a month
to house him. Though Mr Murphy acidly insists, that it should
be a thousand! So, anyway, hundred from each of us, if...?.
-Have you even looked at the stock market lately?
-And Marcus wouldn’t allow me to give even a penny.
He’s, like, freedom!
-Well, perhaps we could work out a method whereby...?
...
-Well...anyway...that’s it, then? A shame you two
can’t help. But I’ll talk to her again.
And the social worker. May be other ways
to get him off the streets.
-We think he likes his life just the way it is!
-Yeah! Not really a question of money then, is it?
At The Murphy’s
-Well that’s family, isn’t it? Can you handle two hundred
on your own?
-I suppose. But Mr Murphy, now rapidly approaching us...!
-‘ll do what he’s told.
