"Disgraceful!" Lucy comments disdainfully. She stands in the living room and looks at Linus, who sits on the floor, sucking his thumb and holding his blanket. "Oh, go away!" He says.<br> <br> She turns to face him: "Disgraceful!" she repeats.<br> <br> She throws up her hands: "When are you going to learn to stand on your own two feet?" Linus shouts: "WADDYA MEAN?"<br> <br> He stands up and tosses the blanket: "I've got just as much will power as anyone else! SEE? I don't need this blanket! I can thorw it away anytime I want to! ANYTIME!" <br> <br> Linus starts to shake: "Good grief!" he exclaims, clutching his stomach.<br> <br> Lucy watches as Linus takes a flying leap towards the blanket.<br> <br> "You're a hopeless case, Linus..." Lucy comments as she walks off. Linus sits on the floor, sweating and holding the blabnket tightly: "I thought I could do it..I actually thought I could do it..." he says.<br> <br>
