There was Askia Ben Kenobi throwing karate chops upstairs, Petey Darden making booze downstairs, and Mrs. Brown grieving for Jack Johnson, whoad died for the third time in a monthaand not a rent payer in the bunch. Still, when Paul Williams and the Action Group got the Arms for one dollar, they thought they had it made. But when their friend Chris was arrested for stealing stereos and Deanas dog started biting fire hydrants and Gloria started kissing, being a landlord turned out to be a lot more work than being a kid.
