You Can't Do That on Television1979
Alasdair Gillis:
Can I please borrow three dollars?
Gramma:
What?
Lance Prevort:
Hey, w-w-watch it, Alasdair. If I'd asked your gramma for the loan of three dollars when I was a kid, she woulda grabbed me by the ear and dragged me around the room tellin' me her life story.
Gramma:
[chuckling] Oh, now, Lance, you are a one.
[Lance and gramma chuckle]
Gramma:
Here you are, grandson - one, two and three. Have a good time. You don't have to pay me back.
Alasdair Gillis:
Thanks, Gramma. Thank you.
[Alasdair exits]
Lance Prevort:
Boy-oh-boy! How times have changed, aye? Heh-heh-heh.
Gramma:
Oh, well...
Lance Prevort:
Hey, Mom? Ma, could you, uh, let me have three bucks?
Gramma:
[disbelieving what she's hearing] Could I let you have have three bucks?
Lance Prevort:
Yeah.
Gramma:
[disapprovingly] Look it here, young man. Do you think that money grows on trees.
Lance Prevort:
Oh, no. Oh, no.
[Gramma grabs Lance's ear and starts leading him around the room, tellin' him her life story]
