Father McKee
I come up to have a serious talk with Tony.
Joe
Well, for God’s sake, don’t get him upset no more’n what he is already. He’s been stallin’ around all mornin’, afraid to go down and meet the bride. You better leave him alone.
Father McKee
I’m always glad to have your advice, Joe. I didn’t look to find you still hangin’ ’round.
Joe
Oh, didn’t you, Padre?
Father McKee
Tony told me you’d decided to go away.
Joe
Well, Padre, I’ll tell you how it is. [He grins impudently.] I don’t believe in stayin’ any one place too long. ’Tain’t fair for me not to give the rest of California a chance at my society. But I ain’t goin’ before I seen all the fun, got Tony safely married, an’ kissed the bride. [He turns to the door and Ah Gee.] That’s fine, Ah Gee. Better take these here Lily Cups in the kitchen when you get through.
