FELIX: (Aside.) No; I ain't that kind of a dog.
VIOLA: I wonder if the dog is hungry?
MAYNARD: I'll go into the house and get him a bone. (Exits into house.)
(FELIX starts rubbing his dog's head against VIOLA'S hip. She screams and exits into house.)
(CHARLIE DOOLITTLE enters from Right.)
CHARLIE: I haven't seen Viola for half an hour, so I think I'll serenade her.
(Starts in singing chorus of song, "Only One Girl in This World for Me.")
(FELIX howls accompaniment. CHARLIE sees dog, who tries to grab him.)
CHARLIE: I'll get a pistol and shoot the beast.
FELIX: Gee, but he's got a nasty disposition!
