Gracie Martin:
My uncle is a hunter.
George Martin: I'd rather not hear about it. Gracie Martin: My uncle always goes out duck hunting. Now, Monday he takes four dogs, and Tuesday he takes three dogs, and Wednesday... George Martin: Gracie! Gracie, why does he take four dogs Monday and three dogs Tuesday? Gracie Martin: Well, because the other dog won't follow him on Tuesday. George Martin: Why? Gracie Martin: Because he shot him on Monday. George Martin: Nice work. He aims at little innocent birds and shoots dogs. Gracie Martin: Yeah, all except one dog. His favorite dog. His name is Scram. George Martin: Your uncle's name is Scram? Gracie Martin: Oh stop, no, the *dog's* name is Scram. You see, that saves my uncle a lot of money calling him Scram. George Martin: Because the dog's name is Scram that saves your uncle a lot of money? Gracie Martin: For sure. You see, when he calls the dog to feed, he hollers "Scram, Scram" and the dog runs away.

George Martin:
[watching through binoculars] Gracie, my gun! A bird!
Gracie Martin: What? George Martin: A bird! A bird! Gracie Martin: O, my goodness. Here. [hands him a live duck] George Martin: Not a duck. My gun! How can you shoot with a duck? Gracie Martin: Well, my father used to shoot ducks. But maybe that duck wasn't loaded, eh? George Martin: The duck wasn't loaded but I'd like to bet that your father was. Gracie Martin: Well, if he wasn't then why did the duck shoot my father because I always thought... George Martin: Quiet! Quiet! Well, I missed him. He's gone and that was a stratospheric duck and very rare. Gracie Martin: Well, I am just as glad that you missed him because I don't like rare ducks. I like my ducks well-done. Gracie Martin: Now, take my uncle. George Martin: *You* take your uncle. Gracie Martin: They did.
