SCENE 1 | Oscar asks Bob, who's waiting for Linda, to teach him some sign language so he can talk to Linda more effectively. He gets Bob to nonchalantly teach him the signs for "away" and "go." When Linda arrives, Oscar of course uses what he's learned to tell her to go away. Instead of being insulted, Linda applauds his signing ability for a beginner. Oscar, soaking in the compliment, asks to be taught more grouchy signs. |
