I Have Hope for Charlie Brown

He keeps giving her the benefit of his doubt. And just like the sun rises in the morning, Lucy pulls the ball back out of his reach. I have hope for Charlie. Charlie Brown is trusting but he is not stupid. He is not a blockhead. He will figure it out. He will come to understand that Lucy does not say what she means.
