(Ralph & Ed are on the Raccoon Thanksgiving float.)

Ralph: “Boy, I would never think in a million years that we would be in the New York Thanksgiving Parade Norton.”

Ed: “And on a float too. We are going to be on TOP of the sewer. Just like we say in the sewer: ‘When the tides of life go against you, and the current upsets your boat, don’t waste those tears on what might have been. Just lay on your back and float.’”

(Ralph rolls his eyes.)

Ralph: “I should mention that Alice has deemed it necessary to bring her parents to watch along the barricade.”

Ed: “They will be watching along with millions and millions around the globe.”

(Ralph has got a nervous face.)

Ed: “Ralph, you are not nervous are you?”

Ralph: “I wish you would stop talking so much Nervous. You are going to get yourself all Norton.”

(They get on the parade float and they start the parade.)

(Alice, Cousin Leo, Trixie and Alice’s parents are watching.)

Alice: “The boys should be here soon. Ralph was so proud to be in the parade.”

Ed: “So is Ed. He just loves floating if you know what I mean.”

(They all laugh.)

(The Raccoon float passes by. Ralph is so nervous as he’s waving.)

Ed (yells): “HEY RALPH, YOU ARE NOW ON NATIONAL TV.”

(Ralph really throws up a lot. People laugh especially Alice’s mother.)

Alice’s Mom (yells): “YOU MAY ALWAYS BE LATE FOR THE EATS LEO, BUT YOU ARE NEVER TOO LATE TO SEE MY BIG, FAT SON-IN-LAW MAKE A FOOL OF HIMSELF.”

(Ralph angering confronts her.)

Cousin Leo: “Ralph, it’s…” (slapping Ralph on the back which causes him to throw up more): “…GOOD to see you.”

Ralph (to Alice’s Mom, yells): “YOU ARE A BLABVERMOUTH. A BLABBERMOUTH. PUT ‘EM UP!”

(A fight develops on TV. It’s a real mess. People separate them.)

(Jackie walks on stage. Crowd cheers.)

Jackie: “Time to introduce the cast. First, the lady who played Alice’s Mom, Ethel Owen.”

(The crowd cheers as Ethel comes on stage and shakes Jack’s hand.)

Jackie: “Audrey Meadows.”

(The crowd cheers as Audrey comes on stage and shakes Jack’s hand.)

Jackie: “And Art Carney.”

(The crowd cheers as Art comes on stage and shakes Jack’s hand.)

Jackie: “The Miami Beach crowds are the BEST! HAPPY THANKSGIVING! GOOD NIGHT!”

(Crowd cheers.)
