My Little Margie's Boy Friends #9
In "My Little Margie's Boy Friends," a man attempts to impress Margie by purchasing her flowers at a florist shop, offering her a two-dollar bouquet. Later, two boys named Boit and Wicky create an elaborate "television set" using a cardboard cutout and hidden megaphone to stage a fake Democratic convention in their garage, complete with a shadow-picture illusion and sound effects. When a real burglar named Gentleman Mort accidentally appears on their improvised screen during a performance featuring Councilman Williams, the boys must decide whether to use their $100 reward for capturing him on a real television or a correspondence course in detective work.
