Yes, Peppermint Patty, you ARE being hypocritical, by being “two-faced” here—secretly preparing this big affair for “Chuck”, as a token of appreciation for his being such a devoted manager and such, and then you turn around and call him “a terrible ball player.” So, NO WONDER Chuck never wanted anything to do with you,Patty, and instead, always preferred the “little red-haired girl.”(not that SHE exactly wanted anything to do with Charlie Brown, though, sad to say.)

Of course, don’t forget, all this was basically LINUS’ idea, Patty, so blame HIM, if anybody, if deep down inside, you never really cared for “Chuck.”

Too bad they didn’t have “pre-glued”envelopes back in 1973, then Peppermint Patty wouldn’t have gotten so sick, from all that licking.
