(The Norton’s are having a New Years Eve Party in the Norton’s apartment with the members of the Raccoon Lodge. Ed is having refreshments with Ralph and Freddie Muller.)

Ed: “This was a great idea of yours Ralph. Having a party in MY place.”

Ralph: “Alice said that I imposed but she says a lot of things.”

Freddie: “And you EAT a lot of things.”

(Ed laughs.)

Ralph (yells): “SHUT UP NORTON!”

Freddie: “Ed I see that you are teasing the fact that you are going to drop a bag full of water out the window like we do at Raccoon conventions.”

Ed: “Yeah, I got that bag of water there. I tried doing that during our Raccoon Convention and I almost drowned. The window was closed.”

Ralph: “With you doing that that figures.”

Alice: “Ralph, don’t act crazy and drink too much.”

Ralph: “Are you saying that I get drunk?”

Alice: “I suppose you were sober the night you came home with your Raccoon cap on, opened the window and yelled at Mrs. Gallagher to get her cat out of our apartment. It wasn’t her cat. You had your Raccoon hat on backwards.”

(Ed & Freddie laugh.)

Ralph (yells): “SHUT UP. TIME TO SAY GOODBYE TO THIS AWFUL YEAR. THE BALL IS DROPPING.”

All (yell): “10...9...8...7...6...”

Ed (yells): “THE CHAMPAGNE IS NOT KORBEL.”

(Ralph laughs.)

All (yell): “...1...”
