Why should I put you on?
I told you I like the group.
171
00:08:53,658 --> 00:08:55,452
Oh, great! And
you're really booking
172
00:08:55,452 --> 00:08:56,995
us for an on-the-air audition?
173
00:08:57,037 --> 00:08:59,497
Right.
[excited chattering]
174
00:08:59,581 --> 00:09:02,167
Okay, cool it, cool it.
And listen to your old dad.
175
00:09:02,250 --> 00:09:04,627
You kids have 10 days,
and you'd better use 'em.
176
00:09:04,669 --> 00:09:06,129
I want all the rough edges
177
00:09:06,129 --> 00:09:08,131
- smoothed off, dig?
- [all agreeing]
178
00:09:08,173 --> 00:09:10,842
Now, you show me
a little professional
179
00:09:10,842 --> 00:09:13,303
finish, and I'll
show you a career.
180
00:09:13,344 --> 00:09:15,679
Keep the good thought!
181
00:09:18,349 --> 00:09:20,977
Listen, it's a living.
182
00:09:22,270 --> 00:09:24,189
What a break!
Yeah.
183
00:09:24,272 --> 00:09:26,232
Hey, I wonder what he meant
by "professional finish."
184
00:09:26,274 --> 00:09:28,735
Probably everybody
finishing together.
185
00:09:28,777 --> 00:09:30,737
Who asked you to play so fast?
186
00:09:30,820 --> 00:09:34,949
Cut it out, you guys.
Don't you see what he meant?
187
00:09:35,033 --> 00:09:36,701
Well, look at us.
What do we look
188
00:09:36,701 --> 00:09:38,495
like? Just a regular
bunch of kids.
189
00:09:38,535 --> 00:09:43,041
Exactly. Just a regular bunch
of ordinary teenage kids.
190
00:09:43,124 --> 00:09:45,085
Now, what's so
professional about
191
00:09:45,085 --> 00:09:47,212
that? Gidge, you
know, you're right.
192
00:09:47,295 --> 00:09:49,422
And we're so wrong.
193
00:09:54,260 --> 00:09:56,679
Gidget and the Gories?
194
00:09:57,972 --> 00:09:59,766
What happened to
The Young People?
195
00:09:59,849 --> 00:10:02,143
We left them back
at the beach.
196
00:10:02,227 --> 00:10:04,979
- We've gone spooky.
- So I see.
197
00:10:05,063 --> 00:10:08,191
Well, that folk-singing stuff
is okay for school.
198
00:10:08,232 --> 00:10:09,901
But we're in a
different bag now.
199
00:10:09,943 --> 00:10:11,653
We've gotta
compete with the pros.
200
00:10:11,736 --> 00:10:15,573
The pros. Somehow, I don't
seem to remember Dinah Shore...
201
00:10:15,615 --> 00:10:19,744
or Lena Horne or even
Frank Sinatra dressed like that.
202
00:10:19,785 --> 00:10:22,747
Oh, Dad, don't put me on.
203

The kids that are making it.
207
00:10:31,422 --> 00:10:35,510
The symptoms must have been
there. Why didn't I see them?
208
00:10:35,593 --> 00:10:38,596
And this is to be
your new, uh, approach?
209
00:10:38,638 --> 00:10:40,765

The guys have put
amplifiers on their

00:10:45,061 --> 00:10:47,147
guitars, and the
sound is so out of sight.
213
00:10:47,230 --> 00:10:49,399
Why, you can't tell us
from The Rolling Stones.
214

Oh, of course.
Dad, let's face it.

Conformity is in. I'd better
refrain from comment.

Yeah, I should imagine.
294
00:15:57,790 --> 00:16:01,335

appearances if they won.
321
00:17:36,638 --> 00:17:38,432
Is all this
really on the level?
322
00:17:38,516 --> 00:17:43,646
You better believe it. New kids
are big business, Mr. Lawrence.

00:17:43,688 --> 00:17:46,190

- If they win.
324
00:17:46,273 --> 00:17:48,526
I think the network people
will like them.
325
00:17:48,609 --> 00:17:51,862
