THE OLD BOY! Strongest branch water that ever wet my whistle. Must of come out of Tiger Tail Bayou. There is a great haw-haw. THE OLD BOY: {Continues) Young man? Mr. Vacarro. This is a mighty fine party you're throwing tonight to celebrate your first anniversary as superintendent of the Syndicate Plantation and Gin. And I want you to know that all of us good neighbors are proud of your achievement, bringin' in the biggest cotton crop ever picked off the blessed soil of Two River County. The camera has picked up a handsome, coc\y young Italian, Silva Vacarro. His affability is not put on, but he has a way of darting glances right and left as he chuckles and drin\s beer which indicates a certain watchfulness, a certain reserve. The camera has also picked up, among the other listeners, some uninvited guests . . . including Archie Lee and his friend from the Brite Spot. Archie Lee is well on the way and, of course, his resentment and bitterness are much more obvious. THE OLD BOY: Now when you first come here, well, we didn't know you yet and some of us old-timers were a litde standoffish, at first. Vacarro'.? face has suddenly gone dar\ and sober. In his watchfulness he has noticed the hostile guests. With a sharp gesture of his head, he summons a man who wor\s for him — Rock — who comes up and kneels alongside. The following colloquy ta\es place right through The Old Boy's lines. Page 28
