Dare To Be Stupid IIIa

The Heartbreak of Pstupidity
A Radio Drama of Agonizing Acts 
Scene 2: 
Narrator:     In no time at all, thanks to the magic of radio, our intrepid trio was hungrily noshing their way through a sampler plate of tripe, headcheese, haggis, and other foods too disgusting to even name on a family program such as this. 

    Boom-Boom wasted no time in getting to the heart of the matter:

   
Boom-Boom: 
 
    Look, lady, where's the men's room? This stuff tastes good, but it ain't restin' easy - right, Shingles?
   
Shingles:     You said a mouthful, Boom-Boom.
   
Narrator: Maybe more than a mouthful, for at that moment, the phone rang. 
(SFX: Phone Ring)
   
Louise: 
 
    Hello, Louise Lake's Diner an... oh, it's you Doctor. 
    No, I'm afraid I can't send over your regular order - my delivery boy seems to have vanished. ... No, I haven't put an ad in the paper for a new one  ...  well, I've just hired some Private Eyes (SFX: Peter Gunn theme) to try to find out what's happening ... I don't know, I'll ask them, just hold on a moment. 
    Oh boys, would you mind dropping off an order to one of my best customers? It's probably right on your way to someplace. It would be a huge help.
   
Bolt:      Well, I guess we could do it. Shingles, make sure we put this on the lady's bill, OK?
   
Shingles: 
 
    Yeah, sure, Bolt, but we gotta wait till Boom-Boom gets back from the can - it didn't sound too good in there.
