(The Houston Astros beat the NY Yankees 2-1.)

(Ralph comes home. He is all upset.)

Alice: "I take it that the Yankees lost, huh?"

Ralph: "What a bad game. The Yankees were down 2-0 for the longest time. At the last second, it looked like they would tie it. They didn't. I had to hear the stupid train sound effects at Minute Maid Field on TV."

(Ed comes in. He blows his nose out of sadness.)

Ed: "Hiya Alice! What a bad game Ralph-ie boy."

Ralph: "At least the Yankees got more wiggle room this series. Now, they only have THREE games to lose instead of let's say two."

Alice: "I am pretty sure that the Yankees will win at least one game."

Ed: "She's right Ralph. You got to pick your chin up. You got to smile."

Ralph: "What do I have got to smile for?"

Ed: "It's easy to smile when things are good but now it's a challenge. Come on Ralph. Show me that smile there. Show me the white ivories. Show me the smile."

(Ralph smiles. Ed notices.)

Ed: "Beautiful. Beautiful. Now that's perfect. Now, don't think of tonight. Think of happier times. Think of how you thought the Yankees would SWEEP AND OWN the Astros and how they would pile up run-after-run-after-run. You got to smile. Smile."

Ralph (yells): "GET OUT! GET OUT!"

(Ed leaves.)

Ralph: "Alice, somewhere there is a straightjacket waiting for that man."

(Jackie walks on stage. Crowd cheers.)

Jackie: "As always, the Miami Beach audiences are the BEST! GOOD NIGHT!"

(Crowd cheers.)
