The court decision seems behind them, and today we find Lum and Abner enjoying booming ticket sales in the movie theater. Lizabeth fills in for Abner in taking tickets inside the lobby, to give him a break. The gents greet townsfolk as they pass by to buy tickets.
US Quincey admires the paint job ion the theater. Maybe he’s looking for some to paint his perpetually unpainted barn. Lum shares a complaint about the way Abner runs the projector. Mousey and Gussie, Earl Butler and his family, and even Squire Skimp all pass through the box office line. Has Squire actually let bygones be bygones? Lum is convinced, but Abner feels more safe to hide under the counter.
Grandpap rushes out to tell about an accident. Who’s hurt? How did it happen? Get ready for the story to take a whole other direction.
Note a guest voice in the ticket line appears, but not sure who she might be.
