"You're weak, you're wishy-washy, you're dull, and you're boring!" Lucy announces to Charlie Brown. They stand outside.<br> <br> "I don't know what else I can say..." she concludes.<br> <br> "The way I see it, Charlie Brown, your faults simply outweigh your virtues!" Lucy opens her arms.<br> <br>"I wish there were some way to demonstrate what I mean.." she adds thoughtfully, holding her hand to her chin.<br> <br> "I have it! I think I can give you a graphic presentaion which will help you to see yourself as you really are!" Lucy anounces as she wlaks off. Charlie Brown watches her.<br> <br> "This board will represent an evenly balanced personality...Now, on one side I'll place this pebble which represents all your virtues..." Charlie Brown watches as Lucy places a pebble on top of a board, which is balanced on a log.<br> <br> "On the other side I'll place this boulder which represents your countless faults..." Lucy explains as she hauls a huge stone towards the plank.<br> <br> WUMP! BOING! As Lucy places the heavy boulder on the plank, the pebble catapults through the air in an arc. Charlie Brown watches it soar past him.<br> <br> "Don't you think you're lucky to have me around to point up these things in such a graphic manner?" Lucy asks as Charlie Brown slumps off.<br> <br>
