(Ralph & Ed have just watched the game from Norton’s apartment.)

Ed: “Oh, those Yankees really got their clocks cleaned.”

Ralph: “They sure did boy. Now the Yankees are down 3-0, and now have to win the next four games. I soooo wanted to go to a Yankee World Series. I had tickets to a game 5 World Series but that series ended in four games."

(Ed blows his nose in sadness.)

Ed: “I want to go to pal. I don’t care who they face. It could have been a great matchup seeing a National League team at Yankee Stadium.”

Ralph: “I bet that Joe Fenstablau and Garrity are happy. They soooo wanted the Yankees to lose tonight.”

(Phone rings. Ed answers.)

Ed: “Hello?”

Joe (over phone): “Hello Norton! Is Ralph up there?”

Ed: “Yeah, he is.” (to Ralph): “It’s for you Ralphie.”

(Ralph gets the phone.)

Ralph: “Hello?”

Joe (over phone): “Ralph, I got it on good authority that the Yankees will lose.”

Ralph: “You wanna bet?”

Joe (over phone): “Since the Yankees are down 3-0, yes. If they lose, you owe me $30. If they win, I owe you $30.”

Ralph: “Deal pal.”

Ralph (to Ed): “See, unlike Garrity, I am not dumb. I like the Yankees.”

(Ralph goes to the window and sticks his head out.)

Ralph (yells): “HEY GARRITY, BECAUSE I AM A YANKEE FAN, I WILL MAKE MONEY. I MADE A BET WITH SONEONE THAT IF THEY YANKEES WIN, THEY OWE ME MONEY AND IF THEY DON’T, I OWE THEM MONEY. UNLIKE YOU, I HAVE A BRAIN.”

(Ralph gets hit with a pie from Garrity.)

Ralph (yells): “GARRITY, YOU ARE A LOSER.”

(Ralph gets doused with water.)

(Ralph & Garrity get into a fight. Ralph comes home with a black eye.)

Alice: “Ralph, what happened.”

Ralph: “I got into a fight with Garrity because I have a BIIIIG MOUTH.”

(Jackie Gleason walks on stage. Audience applauds.)

Jackie: ‘Thank you. GOOD NIGHT.”

(Audience cheers.)
