Mr. Clydesdale: Hey, Steve.
Mailman: Hey, how ya doing, Mr. Clydesdale?
Mr. Clydesdale: Ah, not so good. Just had a fight with the wife upstairs.
Mailman: Hate to see that happen to a good guy like you.
Mr. Clydesdale: Well, thanks. Any mail for me today?
Mailman: Just a second, let me check my bag.. [ pulls out some envelopes ] Here ya go, looks to me like it's just a bunch of bills. [ hands over the letters ]
Mr. Clydesdale: [ looking through them ] Yeah, just bills.. electric.. gas.. phone.. [ reads bill ] I am gonna kill my daughter! Look at the amount of this phone bill! [ shows bill to Mailman ]
Mailman: Ah, kids. What are ya gonna do?
Mr. Clydesdale: I am so mad right now!
Mailman: Hey, hold on, I got something in here that'll cheer you up, wait.. [ pulls magazine out of his mail bag ] Here ya go.. it's Old Man Anderson's copy of Barely Legal. [ hands it to Mr. Clydesdale ]
Mr. Clydesdale: [ confused ] You're.. you're giving me someone else's mail?
Mailman: Ah, he's 90 years old - he should be reading Barely Alive! [ laughs ]
Mr. Clydesdale: [ laughs along while flipping through the magazine ] Oh, man, look at these honeys! Oh, yeahhhh..
Mailman: My treat to you! Let's see what else we got in here.. [ leafs through his mailbag ] Well, well, well.. Mrs. Taylor-Brigham in 218 received her package from the Panty-of-the-Month Club.. let's just take us a look. [ opens package, pulls out panty ] Leopard-print. Nice.
Mr. Clydesdale: Hey, why are you opening her package?
Mailman: Postal regulation, believe me. You wanna give this to your wife?
Mr. Clydesdale: Good Lord, no! First of all, she'd be suspicious. Secondly, I'm still mad at her.
Mailman: That's alright, I'll keep it. [ shoves the panty into his jacket pocket ]
Mr. Clydesdale: I didn't know you were married.
Mailman: I'm not. But I happen to think I look good in leopard-print, okay? You got a problem with it?
Mr. Clydesdale: No, no problem..
Mailman: Alright. Now, hide that magazine before anyone sees you with it. Save it for the bathroom, like everyone else.
Mr. Clydesdale: Good thinking.. [ shoves the magazine under his shirt ] Well, I'd better get going.
Mailman: Wait. You wanna see the pictures from Mrs. Peterman's vacation in the Bahamas?
Mr. Clydesdale: Uh.. I don't think that's such a good idea..
Mailman: What, is she coming?
Mr. Clydesdale: Well.. yeah!
[ Mrs. Peterman walks up ]
Mailman: Mrs. Peterman! So good to see you! I got a fresh load of mail for you today.
Mrs. Peterman: Can it, worm. I'm not interested in making small talk with you.
Mailman: Hey, now, that's no way to talk to the guy who just delivered your pictures from the Bahamas.
Mrs. Peterman: [ stern ] How did you know I went to the Bahamas? I didn't tell anyone I went to the Bahamas! Were you looking at my pictures?!
Mailman: Ah, just making sure the right photos are delivered to the right occupant. By the way, we both enjoyed the shot of you posing nude on Cutlass Bay.
Mr. Clydesdale: No! I didn't see anything, I wasn't looking!
Mrs. Peterman: [ to Mailman ] First thing tomorrow morning, I am stomping on down to the Post Office to have you fired! [ walks away ]
Mailman: Geez, what a bitch.
Mr. Clydesdale: You've got that right. So, I guess you're not going to be our mailman any more?
Mailman: [ thinking ] Nah, I guess not.. [ pause ] Hey, let me read you this letter from college from the O'Brien kid to her dad.. [ pulls out letter ] "Dear Dad: Just a note to let you and Mom know that I'm getting married. Please don't be alarmed, but he's Jewish.."
Mr. Clydesdale: [ laughing ] Oh, that's great, Fred's going to have a coronary! Keep reading, keep reading!
Mailman: Okay, okay.. "We're both dropping out of school after this semester to join the Peace Corps.."
