Chapter 21: Here’s Mud in Your Eye

Buster reached the Kingman Hotel at one in the morning. He was still tired after his train ride but still had the energy to carry his suitcase. With a slap on the desk bell, he summoned the clerk. “Welcome back Mr. Keaton,” he said with his pleasant tone. “Did you have a nice trip?”

Buster let out a soft yawn. "Sure have," he managed, his words muffled by his hand.

With a warm smile, the clerk handed him the key to his room that they had held on for him while he was away. "Have a restful night, sir," the clerk bid him farewell.

Ascending a few floors, Buster entered his room. The dim glow of the lamp revealed a cozy space, a welcome sight after the day's travels. After completing his usual nightly routine, he sank into bed, the exhaustion finally catching up to him.

The sun was peeking up when the phone rang hours later. Buster took the appliance with only his arms. He answered to find it was his brother-in-law from the east. “Who died?”

“Nobody. What is this I hear about the production being halted?” Buster sat up, his mind racing. He had planned to discuss this with Joe once everything was sorted – clearly, someone had beaten him to it. “Well, What the hell is going on?”

"Just give me a moment," he replied tersely. "I'll fill you in."

"Make it quick, Buster. This is causing quite a stir," his brother-in-law pressed.

Buster explained. “It was Brown Eyes, the cow. She had gone on heat and she’s impossible to obey. You know about animals, they're not always easy to manage.”

“Have you tried to pair her up with one of the bulls?” Joe asked.

“Yes, but it didn't go well and I don't want to replace her so we chose to wait until she gets over it. I had the cameraman film some landscapes but don't worry we’ll get back on track as soon as our cow is herself again.”

Buster felt tense when hearing a pause on the other end, hoping it was at least a what for from his boss. To his relief, Joe responded, “I’m not mad but we cannot afford any more setbacks. We’ll be losing our budget. Please make sure to keep things on track.”

Buster gave a nod, “I understand.”

With that, they exchanged final words and hung up. The sunlight beaming from the window encouraged Buster to start his day. He got out of bed to head toward his briefcase because he was in the mood for a morning swim. He entered a pool room only wearing his swimsuit under the robe. He shed off the outer layer and then dove into the water. His strokes were more tranquil and slow. He spent minutes reaching every corner and taking in the temperature of the water. The peace was interrupted when Buster sensed the presence of another person.

“Buster, welcome back!” the voice came from Lex Neal who had just been in the same room.

“Hey, good morning!” Buster grabbed the edge to wave at him. “Have you heard any news about Brown Eyes?”

“The ranch hands said she seems improving well so we're hoping we’ll be back on track in the next day or two. Say how did the weekend go?”

Buster thought of the premiere, his encounters at the reception that were pleasant to him, while some others he had to tolerate through his shyness. He spent time with his family as much as he could. He also had to endure the in-laws that came over. He went home Saturday morning with an afterglow due to his encounter with Gail. He hid it so well that Natalie didn't suspect a thing.

A blush reappeared when his mind wandered to Gail, their lovemaking, her lips, tongue, her bosom, and womanhood.

He said with a grin, “It was wonderful.”

***********************

July had arrived when the scene filmed in Sennett’s Studio had the hero (Maxwell) competing in the town’s bike race to impress his girl (Gail). He was wearing mismatched biking gear with a bouquet taped to his back. Crew members poured water on the race track to muddy it, and live chickens in crates were brought in as a gag.

Gail was at the sidelines with the background actors when Del instructed her, as the camera began rolling, “Okay Miss, you are searching for your sweetheart in the race.” On his cue, Gail pantomimed and pretended to look for Maxwell on the line. She smiled while waving. Her reactions had to be filmed 3 times. Del did it to see whichever shot looked good on her. Gail didn't like to ham it up, although she avoided underacting. As Del's exclamation of "Cut" rang out, the cameraman's hands stilled, capturing the scene's final moments. Gail relaxed her facial muscles, her breath slowing as she stepped out of the character's shoes she had temporarily inhabited. She looked to Del, her question reflecting her desire for perfection.

“Is this good enough Mr. Lord?”

“That should be plenty, Miss,” he answered, his tone carrying a subtle hint of satisfaction.

Later on, another scene had a gag where Gail and the spectators were going to be splashed with a combination of mud and water by one of the racing bikers. They were all notified beforehand, Gail wasn't happy, but she knew in a silent comedy, actors sometimes had to be the butt of a joke. A take was performed where that biker rode close to them but they were only splashed up to their ankles. The crew fixed that situation by dumping excess water into the same area. Another take was done again with successful results as the mud and water landed on their faces. Gail’s reaction was a mix of shock and amusement. Her eyelids kept the wet dirt from entering her eyes, and she sputtered the contents off her lips. It wasn't long until she was given a towel after the take. She looked out for the director to see if he was satisfied with the shot or if they had to do it again.

If Gail had to choose to rehearse for 3 hours in the nightclub where she used to work or to be splashed in mud, she’d pick the latter.

July 4

“What’s he like in bed?” Sally questioned this to Gail when they were in her room in Lenore’s house. She finished painting a star on one of Gail’s bare knees. Hers was drying.

Gail was sitting on Sally’s bed. “Wonderful. He was considerate to me that he avoided hurting me in our lovemaking.”

Sally stood up from the floor. “Aw come on”, Sally said teasingly. “Tell me the details. Where did he lick you?” Reluctantly, Gail pointed her finger to her clothed breast. A gleeful blonde exclaimed, "Oh wow! Michael has a real knack for pleasing a lady!”

Gail was embarrassed by her answer but smiled anyway, “He has, doesn’t he?” The women were dressed for the festivities of the patriotic holiday. Gail wore a red and white striped day dress and white silk stockings. Sally was in a blue wrap dress over her white slip. 2 pairs of small-heeled shoes and a couple of hats, red and blue, were put aside until it was time for their outing.

“Did he have a great body?” Sally sat next to her in an anticipating tone.

“Why yes, he has an ideal physique,” Gail recalled. “He’s like a living Greek statue. His behind has even followed suit.”

They shrieked in excitement.

“Is everything alright?” Lenore called them from another room.

Sally reassured her, “Yes, we're only talking Auntie.”

Gail felt a bit nervous wondering if Lenore heard her niece mentioning ‘Michael’ pleasuring her. "Mike and I are wonderful." She frowned, "But Sterling and you, I'm worried about you. He’s not right in the head. Do you even know why he didn't join you?”

“He has other plans and Auntie still doesn't like him, which is for the best.”

“I’m afraid to mention this but he could be cheating on you.”

Sally took offense, “Bae, Sterling can be a fun fellow but he wouldn't have been having fun with an associate. Look, when we get together I will prove to you that Sterling has changed and is trustworthy.”

Gail hadn't said a word but only gave her a nod.

It was later that day that Gail, Sally, and Lenore were out celebrating Venice Beach. A lively scene featured a man on stilts, dressed as Uncle Sam, a band playing Stars and Stripes forever. Children ran around with wooden toys, and every area was surrounded by American flags.

As dawn peaked, they found somewhere to sit to watch the annual spectacle.

“Gail,” Lenore said to her in surprise, “Your knees are painted!”

Being seated, she noticed the rising hemline revealing her knees, “Oh forgive me, I’ll wash them off before bed.”

“I painted them myself,” Sally piped out.

Lenore raised an eyebrow, “How peculiar that you never practiced your artistry on a canvas,”

Fireworks burst, painting the dark blue sky. Gail was stuck keeping Sally’s secret from Lenore just as she kept hers from them. She wouldn't want to ruin the joyful occasion.

Happy Labor Day everyone!

Good afternoon, folks. We have a great centennial for you 100 Years Ago, Today - (Thursday) March 8th, 1923: "The Love Nest," staring silent film great Buster Keaton, debuts. If you love old maritime footage - and great deadpan comedy- this film is a must. Keaton's character is jilted by his love, and runs away to sea, ending up on a whaler with a sadistic captain who dispatches Crewmen over the side for the most menial infractions. Keaton, in true form, navigates the insanity with great hilarity. Deciding to take matters into his own hands, he scuttles the ship, and escapes in a lifeboat. He then drifts, until tying up to a floating US Navy target rack, and promptly goes fishing. There is absolutely stellar US Navy Battleship target practice footage, as Keaton is oblivious to 12 and 14-inch shells landing around him, thinking the fish are just biting well. I won't tell you how it ends- go watch for yourselves and enjoy a wonderful comedy short that, although 100 years old today, is timeless. (You can find it on youtube) 🇺🇲🇺🇲 ** Please Like & Follow "Sandy Hook History" on Facebook & Instagram for more amazing maritime and military histories of the Garden State and New York Harbor as well as a review of the 80th Anniversary of the Battle Of The Atlantic and World War 2** 🇺🇲🇺🇲 Photos: PubDom, #visitmonmouth #newjerseybuzz #thejournalnj #locallivingnj #journeythroughjersey #centraljerseyexists #discovernj #yesnj #newjerseyhistory #newjerseyforyou #sandyhookbeach #sandyhooknj #sandyhookhistory #forthancockhistory #forthancock #battleoftheatlantic #busterkeaton #thelovenest #centuryold #deadpan #deadpancomedy #vintagenavy #oldnavy #usnavy #unitedstatesnavy #battleships #greatfootage #historicfilm #classicmovie #classiccomedy (at Fort Hancock, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpiRRgyg60j/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
