Remember — all this week is National Pharmacy Week! Music. — “Stop, You're Breaking My Heart” . . . play on. Goodwin. — And now Bob Hope brings you his version of the new song hit “Stop Kickin’ My Heart Around” Music. — Up and down. Hope. — Gosh, I’m so excited, Bill. Imagine us having a date to go out tonight . . . and with girls, too! Goodwin. — Yeah, Bob. Gee, if we’d only known about Mother Mirandy’s Golden Hair Wash 5 years ago! Hope. — ( Nervous laugh) I’m actually going out with a girl! Where’ll we take ’em, Bill ? All the poolrooms are closed. Goodwin. — Don’t worry about that, Bob. These girls are class. We’ll take ’em for a ride on the Glendale bus. Hope. — ( Nervous laugh ) Am I dressed all right ? Goodwin. — You shouldn’t have worn those socks, Bob. Hope. — What’s the matter with these socks? Goodwin. — One of them has a hole in the knee. And those opentoe shoes . . . why did you buy that kind ? Hope. — I didn’t buy them that way. It’s just that my big toe is always in there punching ! Say, how long are we gonna have to wait for those girls ? What time is it, anyway ? Goodwin. — It’s a little after Tuesday. Hope. — Well, let’s wait till a quarter to Thursday; and if they don’t show up, we’ll go stag ! Goodwin. — I can’t understand this, Bob. Hope. — Yeah, this is the third time this week I’ve been turned down. Gosh, what can be the matter ? I read all the ads ! Goodwin. — Well, Bob, there’s something I ought to tell you, but you’re an “unconscious offender.” Hope. — I’m an unconscious offender?
