George and Lennie arrive at the new ranch. In the bunkhouse, they meet an old guy named Candy.
His name seems especially inappropriate since he is missing a hand, has bristly white whiskers, and an ancient dog that stinks.
Candy gives George the lowdown on the ranch.
The boss shows up and questions George and Lennie about their work history. George does all the talking, which makes the boss suspicious.
He can't understand why George is looking out for Lennie, and, honestly, we're not sure either.
George lies and says he and Lennie are cousins, and that they left their last job because it was done. (He leaves out that the job ended when Lennie was accused of rape/ inappropriate petting.)
The boss leaves and Candy comes back in with his dog, who used to be a great sheepherder before he got old and stinky.
(Excuse us while we take a brief detour into the mid-90s.)
Okay, back now. Sorry about that.
The boss's son comes in. He's a small-but-cocky tough-guy type and immediately sizes up George and Lennie as potential victims.

"A girl was standing there looking in. She had full, rouged lips and wide-spaced eyes, heavily made up. Her fingernails were red. Her hair hung in little rolled clusters, like sausages. She wore a cotton house dress and red mules, on the insteps of which were little bouquets of red ostrich feathers."
