Transcript:
"Linus is sitting in front of the television and Lucy is standing next to him asking, “ What are we watching?” <br> <br> Linus looks up at Lucy saying, “Well, for once we’re watching what I wanna watch!” <br> <br> Linus holds his hands up to his chest and is saying to Lucy, “I got the TV first so we’re gonna watch MY program!” Lucy holds her arms out and responses, “All right! All right! I’m not saying a word!” <br> <br> Linus goes on watching the TV and Lucy starts to walk towards the TV saying, “Can you see sitting way back there? How about the volume? Is it loud enough?” <br> <br> Linus still sitting has a questioning look as Lucy kneels in front of the TYV saying, “Why don’t I just try to get the picture a little clearer…. I think it needs more contrast..” <br> <br> Lucy sits next to Linus and grabs his elbow saying, “Why don’t you move up closer? A recent ophthalmologist” report said that it’s all right to sit up close…” Linus has a startled look on his face. <br> <br> Linus turns and looks at Lucy as she goes on saying, “ This is a good program… You were smart to want to watch this program… It’s very good…” <br> <br> Lucy gets up and says, “Why don’t I move the aerial a little? I think we can get a better picture if I jiggle it just a little..” <br> <br> Lucy turns to Linus and says, “How about the sound now? Is it too loud or is it just about the way you like it? If you’d like, I can…” <br> <br> Lucy sits back down and Linus screams, “ALL RIGHT! I GIVE UP! YOU CAN WATCH YOUR OWN PROGRAM!” Lucy turns to Linus saying, “You mean it?” <br> <br> Linus is leaning on a cushion looking a bit upset while saying, “Sure, I mean it! Go ahead…change the channel…” Lucy is kneeling in front of the TV saying, “Good!” <br> <br> Linus is now sitting back in front of the TV with a “SIGH” as Lucy is standing over him saying, “Now, look…this is MY program we’re gonna watch so let’s have it quiet in here! No talking! Understand?!!” <br> <br>" dialogue-text,"Linus is sitting in front of the television and Lucy is standing next to him asking, “ What are we watching?” <br> <br> Linus looks up at Lucy saying, “Well, for once we’re watching what I wanna watch!” <br> <br> Linus holds his hands up to his chest and is saying to Lucy, “I got the TV first so we’re gonna watch MY program!” Lucy holds her arms out and responses, “All right!

And this would be the reason the mother would deprive them of TV for a while, in four years, for constantly fighting over the TV set.
