Excerpts from the "Life Is the Tar Pits" script

Again, tempting on sale for $140....

Scene A at the La Brea Tar Pits, first Lenny & Squiggy, and then we and Lenny meet Karen Caldwell.  The guy who hits on her is described as "a somewhat gaudy looking chap," snorfle!    And, yes, Lenny sends the man to 113 1/2 Laurel Vista to ask for Laverne.  Because Laverne is all about the gaudy-looking chaps, amirite?

We jump to p. 12, where Lenny is making Karen laugh and asking her to the girls' party.

Then the boys fight on p. 24.

The boys are still stuck in tar when the tag starts, but they struggle out and decide to feather themselves and go to a fancy restaurant, because why not?  "EXTRAS STARE" is the last stage direction.

Again, nothing too surprising in the excerpts, although at 41 pages, something must've been left out for filming.  (I don't recall the tag, but I could be wrong.)
