Tis Addams Thing

TIS ADDAMS THING
(Gomez introduces Morticia)

Lurch hears rings.
heavy hands
smirk.

woman meets Thing.

Thing slaps fives
— under, overs.

Thing snaps,
waves.

outdo Thing?
trick Thing?
...gutsy!

Thing
lives
boxed.

fluke —
Gomez loves lady’s words.

“jolie femme”
Thing claps!

spicy wench 
first sight — amour

A Little Laughter Five Contest/Edward McCall

American comedy T.V. Show “The Addams Family”
Morticia would speak French and Gomez couldn’t help but be turned on,
kissing her hand and arm.  Some other crazy characters in the cast: A hand that lives in a box called “Thing” and “Lurch” the scary butler. He was famous for his deep voice “You Rang?” as he answered the door to visitors.

jolie femme — pretty wife
amour - lover
