Tony, the incorrigible, beats time. Then Joe and Ah Gee come along the porch pushing a wheelbarrow, a little flurry of the crowd in their wake. The Doctor shoos out the crowd. Joe and Ah Gee come in.]
Joe
How you makin’ out, Tony?
Tony
Verra sick, Joe. Is festa goin’ good?
Joe
Festa’s goin’ fine, Tony. Me and Ah Gee’s after more vino.
Tony
Da’s good! Da’s good!
Joe
Sure it’s good. But it’s a wonder everybody ain’t drownded already.
Tony
Italian fellas don’ get drownded in vino. Is my Amy havin’ good fun, Joe?
Joe
Sure, she is! She’s playin’ with the kids.
