Epilogue – based on the teleplay “Lost Allegiance” by Dick Nelson and story by John C. Champion
(JESS HARPER is sitting in a chair with his feet up on a low table on the Sherman ranch house porch, sipping lemonade. SLIM SHERMAN brings out an upholstered chair, followed by MIKE COOPER and DAISY COOPER.)
JESS HARPER: Ya’ know, Slim, I can’t figure out why you didn’t get all this work done before I got home.
SLIM SHERMAN: Well, it seems like we wasted a lot of time looking for someone who was lost.
JESS HARPER: Is that a fact?
DAISY COOPER: (Sympathetically) Oh. Would you like a pillow?
(JESS HARPER shakes his head negatively. DAISY COOPER puts her hand on JESS HARPER’s shoulder.)
DAISY COOPER: Let me pour you some more lemonade.
JESS HARPER: (Pats DAISY COOPER’s hand) No thank you, Daisy, I’m fine.
DAISY COOPER: (Sympathetically) Oh.
MIKE WILLIAMS: Can we have some yet?
DAISY COOPER: Pretty quick, as soon as we get the cleaning done. Oh, the dust got into everything.
SLIM SHERMAN: Sure glad to hear you’re feeling better, pard. Maybe you ‘d like to help us knock some of this dust out of the furniture.
JESS HARPER: Ah, I don’t know Slim. You know, my side’s still pretty sore. I don’t know what got into Daisy anyway. The furniture looks fine to me.
SLIM SHERMAN: Oh, is that right?
JESS HARPER: Sure, women are too durn particular.
SLIM SHERMAN: What you’re try’n to say is, ah, dust doesn’t bother you, huh?
JESS HARPER: Not a bit.
SLIM SHERMAN: Well that’s good, pard. Let’s go, Mike.
(SLIM SHERMAN and MIKE WILLIAMS begin beating the furniture right next to JESS HARPER. Dust envelopes JESS HARPER.)
JESS HARPER: Aw, come, aw, what’re you doin’? (Quickly gets out of the chair and leaves)
(DAISY COOPER comes up behind SLIM SHERMAN and MIKE WILLIAMS, laughing.)
