Laverne automatically hugs back, but she feels overwhelmed by all this. She doesn't know what they've won or which of them is actually the winner. But they should probably split the prize, whoever and whatever it is. She can't talk while Lenny is lifting her off the ground, so she'll wait until he sets her down and she can catch her breath.
"Well, do I have to do my shopping spree on my own, or could I invite a few friends?" She knows Shirley would never forgive her if she chose Lenny over Shirl, and probably Squiggy would expect to share in anything Lenny did.
Laverne is surprised that Lenny doesn't want to participate. She could use his long arms, and he seems to love doing stuff with her. But she tells Mr. Slotnick, "Uh, well, my best friend, Shirley Feeney at least."
Well, he's trying to be nice and not go where he's not invited. Yet.
Mr. Slotnick shakes his head. "She doesn't seem to be here - I'm afraid it's highly irregular to add someone who wasn't here to the contest. Aside from your young man, I wouldn't allow a second party."
Lenny shoots a wide-eyed look at Laverne. She's always so hot and cold about spending time with him, what is and is not a date, etc.
And now while their groceries are getting bagged up he'll use this as an excuse to get in more jumping up and down, because it's fun watching Laverne jump up and down and jumping up and down with her.
Laverne feels giddy, from the win and the jumping. They'll still need to pay for today's groceries of course. When she tells Shirley her news, Shirl will definitely want to make a list for the spree.
Lenny already knows that Squiggy's gonna want a lot of stuff, but he's prepared to do that hauling! In the meantime, he's just gonna enjoy himself some Laverne.

"Wait, what do we win? Which one of us is winning?"
Squiggy knows he has to split half of whatever he won with Squiggy. Then again, Mr. Slotnik might not LET him do this.
Re: For laverne_defazio
Laverne still feels like she can't breathe or think.
Re: For laverne_defazio
He really doesn't mind losing out on a spree like this, if only because he knows he can manipulate Laverne into getting him what he wants.

Mr. Slotnick responds with a "that depends on what you mean by help."

"You don't have to worry about me, Laverne. Uh, can you swing me some Bosco?"

"Yeah, that's fine if it's just the two of us. Thank you, Mr. Slotnick."
