Eddie Bartlett:
[Eddie, in his Army uniform, returns to his old place of employment - a garage - seeking to get his job back. He speaks to his former boss] Hello, Mr. Fletcher.

Mr. Fletcher:
[Surprised to see Eddie] Why, when did you blow in?

Eddie Bartlett:
Just now. Sure good to be back.

Mr. Fletcher:
I'll bet it is. What are you gonna' do?

Eddie Bartlett:
Oh, rest up a couple of days, see a few of the boys, and then I'm ready to go to work.

Mr. Fletcher:
That's fine. Whaddya' gonna' do? Where ya' gonna' work?

Eddie Bartlett:
[Confused] Whaddya' mean, "Where am I gonna' work"? I was gonna' come back here.

Mr. Fletcher:
Sorry, Eddie, I haven't got anything for you.

Eddie Bartlett:
Now wait a minute. Maybe I'm in the wrong garage. What was that line you handed me about my job always waiting for me when I got back?

Mr. Fletcher:
Times have changed, Eddie. That boy over there's been working almost two years. Whaddya' want me to do, can him just because you came back?

Eddie Bartlett:
No... no, I couldn't ask you to do that, could I? All right... Thanks.
