STARRING ANDY GRIFFITH...

WITH RONNY HOWARD...

ALSO STARRING DON KNOTTS.

PA, WHAT KIND OF BAIT ARE YOU PUTTING ON MY LINE?

WHY, THAT'S FISH-CATCHING BAIT.

THAT'S THE IDEA, YOU KNOW, TO CATCH FISH.

THAT LOOKS MORE LIKE A PIECE OF HAM FROM OUR LUNCH.

IS THAT RIGHT?

WELL, NOW, THAT'S PROBABLY

'CAUSE IT'S A PIECE OF HAM FROM OUR LUNCH.

PA, YOU'RE S'POSED TO USE FISH BAIT.

WELL, NOW, SON, ALL THEM FISH EVER SEE

DOWN THERE ALL DAY LONG IS OTHER FISH

AND THEY GET MIGHTY SICK OF IT, TOO.

NOW, DON'T IT JUST STAND TO REASON

THAT THEY MIGHT JUST PERK UP AT THE SIGHT OF A PIECE OF MEAT?

AW, BUT, PA --

PA, I GOT ONE!

I GOT A BITE!

ALL RIGHT. NOW, JUST SIMMER DOWN.

NOW, JUST TAKE IT EASY.

REEL HER IN NICE AND EASY.

COME ON, THAT'S A BOY.

HEY, YOU GOT A NICE ONE.

YOU WERE RIGHT, PA.

HE SURE WENT FOR THE HAM.

HE SURE DID. LOOKIT THERE.

HE'S STILL SMACKIN' HIS LIPS.

GOLLY, PA, YOU KNOW JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING, DON'T YOU?

OH, I DON'T EXPECT I KNOW EVERYTHING.

I MEAN IT, PA.

YOU NOT ONLY KNOW EVERYTHING, BUT YOU'RE THE SHERIFF

YOU'RE THE JUSTICE OF THE PEACE...

YOU'RE JUST ABOUT THE MOST IMPORTANT MAN

IN MAYBERRY, IN THE STATE.

WHY, I BET YOU'RE THE MOST IMPORTANT MAN

IN THE WHOLE WORLD.

OH, WELL, NOW, IT COULD BE

A FEW FOLKS YOU MIGHT HAVE TO PUT ON THE LIST AHEAD OF ME

LIKE THE PRESIDENT AND THE QUEEN O' ENGLAND.

I BET THAT QUEEN DON'T KNOW

ABOUT PUTTING HAM ON A FISHHOOK.

WELL, NOW, LET'S BE FAIR ABOUT THAT THING.

SEE, WE DON'T KNOW THAT HAM WOULD WORK OVER THERE.

SEE, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF FISH THEY GOT IN THEM MOATS.

UH-OH.

WHAT'S THE MATTER, PA?

GERTRUDE SPRUNG ANOTHER LEAK.

I THOUGHT I'D CAULKED HER UP GOOD ENOUGH

BUT I DECLARE, IT SEEMS LIKE

AS FAST AS I FIX ONE SEAM, TWO MORE OPEN UP.

PA, CAN'T WE PLEASE FISH A LITTLE LONGER?

WELL, WE CAN IF YOU'VE GOT A MIND TO SWIM BACK.

WE COME VERY NEAR TO NOT MAKING IT.

I'LL SAY ONE THING FOR HER.

ONCE SHE LETS WATER LEAK IN

SHE DON'T LET IT LEAK BACK OUT AGAIN VERY EASY.

CAN I HELP YOU, PA?

WELL, YEAH, YOU CAN HELP ME STORE HER UP

OVER UNDERNEATH THESE BUSHES HERE.

WE DON'T WANT SOME STRANGER

TAKING A RIDE IN HER.

HE'D PROBABLY HAVE A MIGHTY DAMP TRIP

BEFORE HE WENT MORE THAN A FEW YARDS.

SHERIFF!

SHERIFF!

SHERIFF...

YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHAT'S HAPPENED.

SOMETHING BIG. WELL, WHAT IS IT?

THE BIGGEST THING EVER HAPPENED IN MAYBERRY.

REAL BIG, BIG, BIG BIG.

WELL, NOW, JUST SIMMER DOWN, BARNEY.

WHAT IS IT?

WELL, I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU.

WELL, SO FAR, ALL I KNOW IS IT'S SOMETHING BIG.

OH, "BIG" AIN'T THE WORD FOR IT.

WELL, FOR SOMETHING IT AIN'T THE WORD FOR

YOU SURE ARE USING IT A LOT.

NOW, WHAT IS IT?

WELL, I JUST GOT IT ON THE RADIO

DIRECT FROM THE STATE POLICE, SPECIAL FOR US.

W-WELL, WHAT IS IT?

SOMETHING BIG.

BARNEY...

OH, I'M SORRY, BUT THIS IS SO BIG.

I-I MEAN, WELL... IT'S THIS FELLER, SEE?

HE ESCAPED FROM THE STATE PRISON--

A DANGEROUS CRIMINAL--

AND THEY GOT REASON TO BELIEVE HE'S ON HIS WAY HERE.

SO THEY WANT TO SET UP A ROADBLOCK.

THEY'RE GONNA HAVE A REAL FULL-SCALE MANHUNT, A DRAGNET!

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?

ONLY ONE WORD I CAN THINK OF -- BIG.

OH, YOU TOOK THE WORD RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH.

I TOLD THEM THEY COULD EXPECT 100% COOPERATION

FROM THE LOCAL AUTHORITIES, MEANING US.

OKAY, SHERIFF?

YOU DONE FINE, BARNEY.

I NEVER DID THINK

MY OWN COUSIN COULD MAKE SUCH A FINE DEPUTY.

WELL...OH, MY GOSH, I FORGOT TO SIGN OFF.

EVERYBODY OFF THE STREETS!

THERE'S GONNA BE TROUBLE!

BARNEY... EVERYBOD--

BARNEY...AIN'T NO CAUSE TO ALARM THE CITIZENS.

NOW, OPIE, YOU RUN ON HOME, PUT ON SOME DRY CLOTHES,

AND HOW ABOUT CLEANING THEM FISH, ALL RIGHT?

OKAY, PA.

YOU'LL CATCH THAT OL' CRIMINAL EASY, WON'T YOU, PA?

WELL, I HOPE SO.

YOU'LL SEE, YOU TWO.

THIS IS GONNA BE BIG. REAL BIG.

'BOUT TIME YOU GOT HERE, SHERIFF.

PRETTY NEAR 12:00.

YEAH, YOUR 24 HOURS IS ABOUT UP.

YOU CAN GO ON HOME NOW, OTIS.

ANDY, YOU CAN'T LET OTIS GO.

WELL, I HAVE TO. HIS SENTENCE IS UP.

BUT HE'S THE ONLY PRISONER WE GOT!

WELL?

WELL, WHAT ARE THE STATE POLICE GONNA THINK

WHEN THEY GET HERE AND FIND WE GOT AN EMPTY JAIL?

THEY'RE GONNA THINK THIS IS JUST A HICK TOWN

WHERE NOTHIN' EVER HAPPENS.

WELL, NOW, YOU GOT TO ADMIT --

THAT'S ABOUT THE SIZE OF IT.

Otis: SEE YOU LATER, ANDY!

I'LL SEE YOU, OTIS. AND TRY NOT TO DRINK AT ALL.

UH, OTIS -- OTIS.

WAIT JUST A SECOND, WILL YA?

UH, LISTEN, OTIS --

YOU'VE GOT CIVIC SPIRIT, AIN'T YA?

WELL, HOW 'BOUT JUST STAYING ONE MORE NIGHT --

KIND OF LET THE JAIL PUT ITS BEST FOOT FORWARD?

SORRY. TONIGHT'S CHOIR PRACTICE.

DARN.

OH, NOW, SIMMER DOWN, BARNEY.

WE'LL BE A-FILLIN' UP THAT CELL SPACE

SOON AS WE CAPTURE THAT ESCAPED CRIMINAL.

YEAH. YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT!

WE WILL, WON'T WE? [ CHUCKLES ]

YEAH. I BETTER CHECK MY ARMS.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

I CAN'T FIND MY BULLET.

OH, WELL, HERE.

FILL 'ER UP.

"FILL 'ER UP"?

WELL, YOU CAN'T TELL.

THIS MIGHT CALL FOR SOME SHOOTIN'.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

[ SIRENS WAIL ]

HOOEY! LOOKY YONDER.

LOOKS LIKE THEY'VE SENT A WHOLE REGIMENT.

CAPTAIN BARKER, STATE POLICE.

HOWDY. WELCOME TO MAY--

HOWDY.

HOW DO?

WELL, WE'RE, UH, GLAD...

THAT'S RIGHT, OPERATOR.

I WANT THIS LINE KEPT OPEN TO THE STATE CAPITAL.

CAPTAIN BARKER, STATE POLICE. THAT'S WHO SAYS SO.

UH, UH...

YEAH. IT'S ALL RIGHT.

ANY SHERIFF BUSINESS COMES UP,

ALL RIGHT.

OH, SHE'S FINE.

UH, CAPTAIN, I'M-- I'M SHERIFF TAYLOR.

GOOD. GOOD.

IF THERE'S ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO...

WALTERS, THE MAP.

WELL, NOW, THAT'S A NICE, SHINY, NEW MAP THERE,

BUT IT AIN'T MUCH DIFFERENT

THAN THE ONE WE HAD UP THERE BEFORE.

MEN, THIS IS WHERE WE ARE -- MAYBERRY.

YEAH, THAT'S HER, ALL RIGHT.

WALTERS, MARKERS.

WELL, NOW, THAT'S A DANDY LITTLE ITEM THERE.

LOOK AT THAT.

LITTLE BUTTON THAT JUST STICKS THERE AND DON'T FALL OFF.

WE'RE STILL USING PINS.

THERE AIN'T TOO MANY OF THEM LEFT EITHER.

THE WOMAN'S CLUB, THEY PUT ON A HALLOWEEN PLAY

AND THEY USED THIS FOR THE DRESSING ROOM.

THEY DONE NEAR USED EVERY PIN WE HAD

HEMMING UP COSTUMES.

OH, I'M SORRY. WE INTERRUPTED YOUR LITTLE TALK.

YOU GO RIGHT AHEAD. THANK YOU.

NOW, WE'LL HAVE BLOCKADES HERE...

HERE...

HERE...

AND HERE.

NOW, ON EACH BLOCKADE, I WANT A FULL COMPLEMENT

AROUND THE CLOCK AND FULLY ARMED.

TOMMY GUNS, TEAR GAS, FLARES, LOUDSPEAKERS, SPOTLIGHTS.

ANY QUESTIONS?

I GOT ONE LITTLE BITTY ONE.

YOU?

YES, SIR.

YOU'RE GUARDING ALL THE MAIN ROADS.

SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT?

WELL, NO, NOT IF YOU EXPECTING THAT CRIMINAL

TO COME THROUGH HERE ON THE BUS.

BUT YOU GOT TO GIVE SOME THOUGHT TO THE IDEA

THAT HE MIGHT GET SNEAKY ABOUT THAT THING --

COME DOWN ONE OF THE SIDE ROADS.

WE GOT ONE ROAD DOWN THERE BY THE LAKE

THAT AIN'T EVEN MARKED.

THANK YOU FOR THAT VALUABLE SUGGESTION.

OH, YOU'RE WELCOME.

AND IF THERE'S ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO TO HELP

WE'RE AT YOUR DISPOSAL, ME AND MY DEPUTY HERE.

OH, THIS IS, THIS IS DEPUTY FIFE.

HELLO, FELLAS.

YOU MIGHT JUST WELL CALL ME BARNEY.

WE'RE ALL IN THIS MANHUNT TOGETHER.

WALTERS, PASS OUT THOSE PICTURES.

THAT'S DEREKSON, THE MAN WE'RE AFTER.

YOU MEMORIZE THAT FACE WELL. LEARN EVERY LINE OF IT.

THAT'S A NICE SNAPSHOT OF HIM.

HI, PA! DID YOU CATCH THE CRIMINAL YET?

OH, HI, OPIE. NO, NOT YET,

BUT THE CAPTAIN AND ME -- WE'RE TALKING OVER PLANS.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY, SIR. MY PA WILL CATCH HIM FOR SURE.

AW, NOW, OPIE, THE STATE PATROLMEN

THEY'RE GOING TO DO THEIR PART IN THIS, TOO.

THAT'S MY BOY, OPIE.

HE'S JUST A LITTLE BIT PREJUDICED.

OH, AND THIS IS MY AUNT BEE.

HOW DO, CAPTAIN?

ANDY, BEFORE YOU GO TRAIPSING AROUND ON ANY MANHUNT,

YOU COME ALONG HOME AND HAVE DINNER FIRST.

OH, WELL, THIS IS KIND OF IMPORTANT, AUNT BEE.

I'M LIABLE TO HAVE TO EAT A BIT LATER ON.

ANDY, DO YOU REALIZE I HAVE A ROAST IN THE OVEN?

AND IT'S DRYING UP UNLESS YOU COME AND EAT IT.

AUNT BEE, YOU'RE INTERRUPTING OFFICIAL BUSINESS.

ANDY, YOU KNOW HOW YOU ARE WHEN YOU MISS A MEAL.

HE'S MEANER THAN A BEAR BACKED INTO A BEEHIVE.

I DON'T ENVY YOU MEN WORKING UNDER HIM.

AUNT BEE, NOBODY'S WORKING UNDER ANYBODY.

BUT, PA, YOU'RE THE SHERIFF.

HE'S ONLY A CAPTAIN.

YEAH, WELL, THIS IS KIND OF A JOINT OPERATION

YOU MIGHT SAY --

STATE AND COUNTY WORKING AS A TEAM.

GENTLEMEN, SHALL WE GET ON WITH IT?

WHY DON'T YOU JUST STAY HERE

AND HANDLE YOUR LOCAL AFFAIRS?

WE'LL SET UP THE ROADBLOCKS.

LET'S GO, MEN.

ANDY, THEY'RE LEAVING US PLUMB OUT OF IT.

YEAH, IT LOOKS LIKE IT.

DON'T THEY KNOW HOW IMPORTANT YOU ARE?

YEAH, WELL, THEY'RE PROBABLY SAVING US

FOR A SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT,

LIKE WHEN THE BIG SHOWDOWN COMES.

YEAH. YEAH, OF COURSE. THAT'S IT.

WELL, WE'LL BE READY FOR THEM.

[ GUNSHOT ]

MAN: R.B.-one to R.B.-two.

R.B.-one to R.B.-two. Come in, please.

MAN #2: R.B.-two.

Any action?

Nothing here, sir.

Traffic's been light the past hour.

Picking up a little now.

Okay, keep your eyes open.

DOGGONE IT, ANDY.

IT'S BAD ENOUGH US JUST SETTIN' HERE HELPLESS.

WE CAN'T EVEN GET INTO THE CONVERSATION.

YEAH.

MAYBE WE BETTER NOT JUST SET HERE.

INSIDE WE CAN AT LEAST LOOK BUSY.

HOW COME YOU'RE NOT TO BE OUT ON THE ROADBLOCK?

THAT'S RIGHT.

IF A CRIMINAL'S HEADED TOWARD MAYBERRY

THE SHERIFF OF MAYBERRY

CERTAINLY OUGHT TO BE THERE TO STOP HIM.

YEAH. WELL, THAT'S STATE BUSINESS, YOU MIGHT SAY

AND I STILL GOT A DUTY TO KEEP ORDER HERE IN TOWN.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL MY PA ANYTHING.

HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING.

COME ON, OPIE.

NOW, OPIE, YOU KNOW I MAKE IT A POINT

NEVER TO DISCUSS OFFICIAL BUSINESS WITH THE PUBLIC.

NOW YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, DON'T YOU?

BUT, PA, YOU KNOW WHAT THEY'RE SAYING?

THEY'RE SAYING YOU'RE NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH

TO BE IN ON A MANHUNT.

CAN I JUST TELL RALPHIE AND TOMMY

THAT THEY'RE SAVING YOU FOR THE BIG SHOWDOWN?

NOW, POLICE BUSINESS HAS GOT TO BE KEPT CONFIDENTIAL.

YEAH.

BUT WAIT TILL YOU CATCH THAT OLD CRIMINAL--

BAREHANDED MAYBE.

THEN I'LL TELL 'EM.

NOW, DOG, BARNEY, I GOT TO DO SOMETHING.

A LAW OFFICER JUST CAN'T SIT AROUND

AND LET HISSELF BECOME A LAUGHINGSTOCK.

HERE.

PUT THEM BULLETS BACK IN YOUR GUN.

NOW LISTEN, YOU KEEP THEM 20/20 EYES OF YOURS

GLUED ON THIS ROAD

AND DON'T LET ANYTHING PASS WITHOUT YOUR CHECKING IT.

YOU CAN TRUST ME, SHERIFF.

YOU'RE TALKING TO RELIABLE BARNEY FIFE, YOU KNOW.

ALL RIGHT. IF YOU NEED ME, FIRE THREE SHOTS.

RIGHT.

OH, UH, 10-4.

OH, HOWDY, CAL.

HI, BARNEY. WHAT'S UP?

ROADBLOCK. AIN'T YOU HEARD?

THERE'S AN ESCAPED CRIMINAL ON THE LOOSE.

OH, YEAH, I HEARD ABOUT IT. I HOPE YOU CATCH HIM.

HALT!

GET OUT, CAL.

WHAT FER?

I GOT TO FRISK YOU. I GOT TO FRISK EVERYBODY.

WELL, I AIN'T THE CRIMINAL.

WELL, YOU COULD BE.

YOU COULD BE THE CRIMINAL DISGUISED AS YOU.

US LAWMEN CAN'T TAKE CHANCES.

WELL, I NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A...

NOW FACE YOUR TRUCK AND LEAN AGAINST IT.

ALL RIGHT, I GUESS THAT'LL DO IT.

BE SURE AND SAY HELLO TO THE LITTLE WOMAN, MAYOR.

I'M SORRY ABOUT THIS

BUT US LAWMEN CAN'T TAKE CHANCES.

BUT, BARNEY, I'M YOUR MOTHER.

OH, WELL, AT LAST. SOMEBODY I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S YOU!

HERE, LET ME HELP YOU.

I'M GONNA ARREST YOU!

10-4...

BARNEY!

BARNEY, WHAT...?

WHAT IN THE WORLD HAPPENED?

HE WAS HERE, ANDY.

DEREKSON?

YEAH. HE GOT THE DROP ON ME.

YOU MEAN HE HAD A GUN?

UH... WELL, HE...

HE HAS NOW.

I BETTER REPORT THIS.

MAYBERRY TO HEADQUARTERS.

THAT'S PA.

Mayberry to headquarters. Come in, please.

THIS IS HEADQUARTERS, MAYBERRY. GO AHEAD.

Deputy Barney Fife made contact with the escapee.

HE HAS?

YEAH.

ONLY TROUBLE IS, HE KIND OF GOT UN-CONTACTED.

What?

WELL, HE GOT AWAY IS WHAT HE DONE.

WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE UP TO? I TOLD YOU WE'D HANDLE THIS.

WELL, WE JUST THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL

IF SOMEBODY WATCHED THE OLD ROAD DOWN BY THE LAKE.

IT NEARLY WORKED, TOO.

BUT I RECKON THAT'S THE WAY IT IS

IN THE MANHUNT GAME --

SOMETIMES YOU BAG 'EM, SOMETIMES YOU DON'T.

NOW, I, I... GOT A IDEA.

SHERIFF, WE'RE TRYING TO APPREHEND

A DANGEROUS CRIMINAL.

PLEASE DON'T HINDER US WITH YOUR BUMBLING IDEAS.

10-4.

BUT, CAPTAIN -- HEL-- HEL--

10-4.

I'M DOGGED IF IT DON'T MAKE A FELLA FEEL RIGHT BAD

TO GET TEN-FOURED RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A IDEA.

I'D BE GLAD TO LISTEN TO YOUR IDEA, SHERIFF.

WHY, THANK YOU, DEPUTY.

WELL, NOW, MY IDEA IS THIS --

IF I WAS A CRIMINAL

AND I WAS HEADING THROUGH THEM WOODS

I'D STOP OFF AT EMMA BRAND'S HOUSE.

YOU WOULD? FOR SURE.

YOU KNOW THAT THERE AIN'T A DAY THAT GOES BY

THAT EMMA DON'T MAKE A BATCH OF PIES

AND PUT THEM OUT IN THE WINDOW TO COOL.

YOU KNOW, IT'S PRETTY HARD ON THE AVERAGE FELLA

TO PASS BY WITHOUT SNIFFING

AND HUNGERING FOR A SLICE OF PIE.

NOW YOU CAN JUST IMAGINE

WHAT THAT'S GOING TO DO TO A STARVING ESCAPEE.

YEAH.

YEAH. WELL, LET'S GO ON OVER THERE.

HOWDY, EMMA. YOU ALL RIGHT?

HOWDY, SHERIFF. I'M FINE.

WE JUST STOPPED BY TO WARN YOU TO KEEP YOUR DOORS BOLTED.

THANK YOU, SHERIFF.

THANK YOU. I WILL.

WAIT A MINUTE, EMMA.

I DIDN'T TELL YOU WHY.

OH. TH-THAT'S RIGHT.

WELL, YOU KNOW THIS ESCAPED CONVICT THAT'S ON THE LOOSE?

WELL, WE'RE STILL LOOKING FOR HIM

SO YOU BE EXTRA CAREFUL NOW, YOU HEAR?

UH, EMMA...

HOW'S YOUR SCIATICA?

O-OH, IT'S FINE. JUST FINE.

GOOD-BYE, SHERIFF.

SHE'S THE SWEETEST THING, AIN'T SHE?

UH...

BARNEY, THERE'S SOMETHING CURIOUS GOING ON IN THERE.

DID YOU EVER KNOW EMMA BRAND'S SCIATICA

TO BE JUST FINE?

OR ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT HER FOR THAT MATTER?

NO, SIRREE. SH-SHE IS TRYING TO GET RID OF US

AND I BELIEVE I KNOW WHO PUT HER UP TO IT.

YOU M-- YOU MEAN

YOU THINK HE'S IN THERE?

YEAH.

WELL, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?

WELL, I GOT A IDEA.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

YOU KNOW, SHERIFF,

I TOLD YOU THERE WAS NOBODY HERE, A-AND...

YEAH, I-I-I-I KNOW IT, EMMA.

I KNOW THAT.

I-I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU ONE THING

JUST IN CASE YOU WAS TO SEE THAT FELLA.

NOW, DON'T SAY A WORD ABOUT MY BOAT

BEING HID DOWN THERE BY THE LAKE

UNDERNEATH THAT CLUMP OF BUSHES --

YOU KNOW THAT CLUMP OF BUSHES THAT'S SO VERY NEAR YOUR DOCK?

IF THAT FELLA WAS TO FIND THAT BOAT,

HE COULD ROW CLEAR ACROSS TO SANDY POINT

AND GET AWAY AS SLICK AS A WHISTLE.

NOT A WORD ABOUT THAT NOW. YOU PROMISE?

I PROMISE.

YOU KNOW SOMETHING, LADY?

YOU GOT A MIGHTY OBLIGING SHERIFF IN THIS TOWN.

REAL HELPFUL.

[ CHUCKLES ]

[ NERVOUS LAUGH ]

MAYBERRY PATROL TO CAPTAIN, COME IN, PLEASE.

MAYBERRY PATROL TO CAPTAIN, COME IN, PLEASE!

NOW, CAPTAIN, YOU MIGHT AS WELL SAY HELLO

'CAUSE I'M GOING TO KEEP CALLING TILL YOU DO.

CAPTAIN PARKER TO MAYBERRY.

WHAT IS IT, SHERIFF?

OH, HELLO, CAPTAIN.

I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT LIKE TO KNOW WHERE

YOU CAN PICK UP YOUR CRIMINAL.

WHAT?!

You meet me down by the lake

near the old Crystal Creek Road.

I BELIEVE WE CAN WIND THIS WHOLE THING UP.

YOU'VE GOT HIM CORNERED?

LET'S JUST SAY WE'VE MADE THE NECESSARY ARRANGEMENTS.

YOU'LL BE RIGHT ALONG, WILL YOU?

WHERE IS CRYSTAL CREEK ROAD? HOW DO I GET THERE?

WELL, YOU GO BY THE OLD SUMMER PLACE...

OH, THAT'S RIGHT.

YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET THERE EITHER, DO YOU?

I tell you what, tell you what.

You go by my house and pick up my boy, Opie --

ANYBODY CAN TELL YOU HOW TO GET THERE --

AND HE'LL SHOW YOU THE WAY.

THERE'S TIME FOR THAT?

OH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT.

10-4.

But, Sheriff...

I'M SORRY. I ALREADY TEN-FOURED YOU.

KIND OF A GOOD FEELING GETTIN' IT IN FIRST

FOR A CHANGE.

THERE HE IS.

DID YOU CATCH HIM, PA?

WELL, AS GOOD AS.

WELL, WHERE IS HE?

RIGHT OUT THERE'S YOUR MAN, CAP'N.

WALTERS, BINOCULARS.

YOU FOOL! YOU LET HIM GET AWAY.

WHY DIDN'T YOU SHOOT?

WELL, IN THE FIRST PLACE, IF I'D HAVE SHOT

I MIGHT HAVE HIT HIM

AND I FIGURED YOU'D RATHER HAVE HIM ALIVE.

IN THE SECOND PLACE, HE MIGHT HAVE SHOT BACK

AND I'D RATHER HAVE ME ALIVE.

YOU THINK YOU CAN GET HIM WITH A TELESCOPIC SIGHT?

YEAH, I CAN TRY, SIR.

WELL, THERE AIN'T ANY REAL NEED IN THAT.

WHAT?!

THAT'S A PRETTY FAR RANGE OUT THERE.

BESIDES, HE'LL COME BACK PEACEFUL ENOUGH.

I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU GOT TO BE A SHERIFF IN THIS STATE,

BUT WHEN THIS IS OVER, I'LL SEE THAT YOU'RE THROWN OUT.

THERE'S NO PLACE FOR SUCH INCOMPETENCE

IN A PEACE OFFICER.

THAT'S OUR BOAT, AIN'T IT, PA?

YOU LET HIM TAKE IT ON PURPOSE, DIDN'T YOU?

I SURE DID, SON.

LOOK!

IT'S SINKING.

Andy: YES, SIR. IT SURE IS.

THAT'S 'CAUSE IT LEAKS, AND PA KNEW IT ALL THE TIME.

CAP'N, IF YOU'LL TAKE YOUR MEN

DOWN THIS LITTLE ROAD DOWN THERE AT THE SHORE,

I IMAGINE HE'LL SWIM RIGHT TO YOU.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO, MEN.

YOU KNOW, THIS MORNING WHEN WE WAS FISHING

I SURE DIDN'T ENJOY HAVING A HOLE IN THAT BOAT.

I TELL YOU THE TRUTH RIGHT NOW --

I WOULDN'T TAKE A DOLLAR AND A QUARTER FOR IT.

SHERIFF TAYLOR, I WANT TO SAY

IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE WORKING WITH YOU.

OH, IT WAS MY PLEASURE.

MY PA IS THE BEST SHERIFF IN THE WHOLE STATE.

WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED, SON.

WHEN I GET BACK TO THE STATE CAPITAL,

I'M GONNA SEE THAT THEY SEND YOU A CITATION FOR THIS.

OH, THAT WON'T BE NECESSARY.

'COURSE IF YOU COULD SEE YOUR WAY CLEAR

TO SEND ME ONE OF THEM MAPS WITH THE STICKY BUTTONS ON IT,

I'D APPRECIATE IT.

YOU GOT IT, SHERIFF.

BYE, AND THANKS AGAIN.

YES, SIR.

WELL, YOU AIN'T SO TOUGH NOW, ARE YOU, WISE GUY?

YOU JUST BETTER STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM MAYBERRY

AS YOU CAN GET, IF YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOOD FOR YOU.

AIN'T GONNA GET THE DROP ON ME AGAIN.

UGH!

[ GRUNTING ]

EASY. EASY. NO, EASY.

MY FINGER'S PINCHED! MY FINGER'S PINCHED!

10-4! 10-4!
