1
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,540
Seems ridiculous to me that a man of
your age should be arrested for kissing

2
00:01:01,540 --> 00:01:02,860
young lady in a parked car.

3
00:01:03,300 --> 00:01:07,420
Yes, sir. This is not only a legal
question, it's a question of good taste.

4
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,120
I fine you ten dollars.

5
00:01:13,580 --> 00:01:15,120
What's that nice smell?

6
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:16,720
Lilacs, Judge. It's spring.

7
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:27,760
Fine suspended.

8
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,160
Gee, thanks, Judge.

9
00:01:30,060 --> 00:01:31,060
Court's dismissed.

10
00:01:34,220 --> 00:01:35,220
Nihilists.

11
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:36,760
Spring.

12
00:01:39,940 --> 00:01:41,480
Look here, Henry, what's this?

13
00:01:41,940 --> 00:01:43,540
It's spring, all right, Judge.

14
00:01:44,420 --> 00:01:46,420
Taxes are due again on that aqueduct
land.

15
00:01:47,060 --> 00:01:51,800
Ah, $286 .53 taxes on that pile of
gravel.

16
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,160
Well, it's like buying hay for a dead
horse.

17
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,160
Helped you out of a tough spot once,
that property.

18
00:01:57,780 --> 00:01:59,480
I've been paying on it ever since.

19
00:02:00,060 --> 00:02:01,060
Oh, well.

20
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:03,359
Anything else?

21
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,460
There are two men here to see you.

22
00:02:04,700 --> 00:02:05,740
All right, show them in.

23
00:02:07,060 --> 00:02:08,060
Step in, please.

24
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,360
How do you do, gentlemen?

25
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,520
How do you do, Judge?

26
00:02:12,660 --> 00:02:16,740
My name is Willett. Mr. Willett. And
this is Mr. Hanson. Mr. Hanson, how do

27
00:02:16,740 --> 00:02:19,280
do? Well, sit down, gentlemen, sit down.
Oh, thank you, Judge.

28
00:02:19,920 --> 00:02:22,120
I'm from the northern part of the state
in business there.

29
00:02:22,650 --> 00:02:23,870
Hanson here is a friend of mine.

30
00:02:24,190 --> 00:02:29,090
I might add that he's a genius in his
own field, a chemist. And he stumbled

31
00:02:29,090 --> 00:02:30,090
something remarkable.

32
00:02:30,410 --> 00:02:35,650
Really? But first, I'll have to ask you
for a promise to deal with us fairly

33
00:02:35,650 --> 00:02:37,010
after we tell you what we've discovered.

34
00:02:37,490 --> 00:02:42,570
Well, my integrity is fairly well
established here in common. We know

35
00:02:42,750 --> 00:02:46,490
Judge, do you realize that one of the
most important factors in life today is

36
00:02:46,490 --> 00:02:47,490
the metal aluminum?

37
00:02:47,850 --> 00:02:48,850
No, is it?

38
00:02:49,290 --> 00:02:52,030
And aluminum comes from the mineral
bauxite.

39
00:02:53,030 --> 00:02:56,390
This soil contains 8 % aluminum bauxite.

40
00:02:56,690 --> 00:03:01,250
Where did it come from?

41
00:03:01,510 --> 00:03:03,790
A piece of property north of Carvel.

42
00:03:04,110 --> 00:03:05,290
You own it.

43
00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:09,050
What? You mean my aqueduct property?

44
00:03:09,610 --> 00:03:10,750
That's why we're here.

45
00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:12,250
Here's an analysis of it.

46
00:03:12,810 --> 00:03:17,090
In other words, that land's really worth
money? That's right. You can have that

47
00:03:17,090 --> 00:03:18,710
sample put to any test you like.

48
00:03:21,610 --> 00:03:27,230
Gentlemen, those are the pleasantest
words I've heard in a long while.

49
00:04:04,430 --> 00:04:05,710
you Polly -o -pallow -pallow.

50
00:04:06,890 --> 00:04:10,030
Oh, gee, it's a swell day, isn't it?

51
00:04:10,630 --> 00:04:11,690
I feel swell.

52
00:04:12,050 --> 00:04:13,050
Hello, Andy.

53
00:04:13,310 --> 00:04:15,290
This is Andrew Hardy, a friend of mine.

54
00:04:15,830 --> 00:04:18,769
Lieutenant Charles Colton of the United
States Navy.

55
00:04:19,390 --> 00:04:20,390
How do you do, sir?

56
00:04:21,350 --> 00:04:23,690
How do you do, sir? Won't you sit down,
Andy?

57
00:04:26,570 --> 00:04:27,570
Gosh,

58
00:04:28,030 --> 00:04:31,650
it's a swell day, isn't it? I thought if
you weren't busy that I'd take you down

59
00:04:31,650 --> 00:04:32,650
and treat you to a soda.

60
00:04:32,830 --> 00:04:35,690
Oh, that's sweet of you, Andy. But
Charlie's taking me out to dinner.

61
00:04:36,370 --> 00:04:40,030
Oh. Charlie's staying at our house now.
Yes, Polly's dad and mine are old

62
00:04:40,030 --> 00:04:42,870
friends. Oh, but it's not purely a
social visit. Oh, my, no.

63
00:04:43,450 --> 00:04:45,610
Charlie's here on official business for
the Navy.

64
00:04:46,190 --> 00:04:48,730
Oh, official business for the Navy.
Indeed, yes.

65
00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:50,630
Well, just guess who we're having dinner
with.

66
00:04:51,190 --> 00:04:52,370
The Rear Admiral.

67
00:04:52,590 --> 00:04:57,430
The Rear Admiral. Oh, Rear Admiral and
Carvel. We're here to supervise the

68
00:04:57,430 --> 00:04:58,450
Carvel road construction.

69
00:04:58,890 --> 00:05:02,030
Am I crazy or what? Since when have they
been running battleships on roads?

70
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:03,920
It's a little different than that.

71
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,640
See, over there, the government's
building a huge training school for the

72
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:12,880
Reserve. Our job is to see that the
Carmel Street paving program includes a

73
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,640
highway of the proper width and grading.

74
00:05:15,060 --> 00:05:19,540
Then, in national emergency, we can move
thousands of men and supplies.

75
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:21,720
Isn't that simply terrific?

76
00:05:22,420 --> 00:05:24,480
Yeah, that's plenty big job, all right.

77
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,620
Oh, it won't take you long, will it?
Will it?

78
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:28,960
About six weeks.

79
00:05:29,220 --> 00:05:30,159
It will.

80
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,420
About six weeks.

81
00:05:31,950 --> 00:05:34,710
Oh, that's great. That's swell. Then
you're going to be around for our track

82
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:38,150
meet. I run the 440 -yard dash. Pull the
school record, too.

83
00:05:38,630 --> 00:05:41,890
Why, Andy, isn't Charlie's name
familiar?

84
00:05:42,850 --> 00:05:45,990
Charles Copley. Oh, my goodness.

85
00:05:46,330 --> 00:05:48,530
Haven't you read about Charles Copley?

86
00:05:48,810 --> 00:05:51,130
Two firsts in the last Olympic Games.

87
00:05:51,530 --> 00:05:53,790
Two firsts in the last Olympic Games?

88
00:05:54,090 --> 00:05:55,090
That's right.

89
00:05:55,350 --> 00:05:58,510
Well, I think I'll be going now.

90
00:05:58,890 --> 00:05:59,890
I've got to...

91
00:06:00,280 --> 00:06:02,940
Something important to do that my father
wants me to do for him.

92
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:05,280
You mean mow the lawn?

93
00:06:05,980 --> 00:06:08,040
Kids have a funny sense of humor, don't
they?

94
00:06:08,620 --> 00:06:09,640
Well, goodbye.

95
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:10,920
Nice to have met you.

96
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,060
Yeah, it's nice to have met you, too.

97
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,040
Yeah.

98
00:06:15,740 --> 00:06:16,740
Swell.

99
00:06:34,090 --> 00:06:36,910
Darling, will you pick me some flowers
for the table? I think the violets to

100
00:06:36,910 --> 00:06:39,770
north of the house are in bloom. Mom,
can I tell you the exact truth?

101
00:06:40,530 --> 00:06:41,409
Why, yes.

102
00:06:41,410 --> 00:06:43,290
I'm in no mood for picking violets.

103
00:06:45,030 --> 00:06:46,030
There you go.

104
00:06:46,850 --> 00:06:49,890
Well, that boy now is up on another
tack.

105
00:06:50,170 --> 00:06:53,170
What's the matter now, Emily? Oh, he's
been as good as gold for two weeks. I

106
00:06:53,170 --> 00:06:54,590
might have expected a change any day.

107
00:06:54,810 --> 00:06:55,810
Well, it's come, all right.

108
00:06:57,790 --> 00:07:00,670
Just hold off dinner for a little while,
Mother. I've decided to mow the lawn.

109
00:07:04,940 --> 00:07:09,280
Didn't you think that James sounded,
um... Well... I think the word's

110
00:07:09,900 --> 00:07:10,900
Oh, my dear.

111
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,180
You don't suppose he's going to resign
from the bench, do you?

112
00:07:13,620 --> 00:07:14,940
Maybe it's just spring fever.

113
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,900
Mother! Oh, hello, Aunt Millie. Where's
Dad?

114
00:07:18,180 --> 00:07:19,159
Mowing the lawn.

115
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,300
And Harry's tall back's going to pay for
that tomorrow.

116
00:07:21,660 --> 00:07:24,480
I think I'll go out and talk to him.
Yes, for heaven's sake, distract him.

117
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,260
don't distract him too much. I'm not
going to hold up dinner. Spring fever, I

118
00:07:27,260 --> 00:07:28,260
know, spring fever.

119
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,540
I've been thinking... Hmm? I know coming
from me that sounds impossible, but

120
00:07:44,540 --> 00:07:45,419
honest is true.

121
00:07:45,420 --> 00:07:48,380
And? Well, lately my life seems so sort
of pointless.

122
00:07:48,740 --> 00:07:49,539
Mm -hmm.

123
00:07:49,540 --> 00:07:52,200
I want to be doing something. I want to
try earning my own living.

124
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,720
Well, I'd like to know you could earn
your living in case you had to, but I'd

125
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,520
hate to see you take somebody else's
paycheck and might need it, might or

126
00:07:58,720 --> 00:07:59,699
Get it ready!

127
00:07:59,700 --> 00:08:00,920
And hurry, everything's hot!

128
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,800
All right, all right.

129
00:08:04,100 --> 00:08:09,040
Well, honey, I'll put my thinking cap on
and see what we can work out.

130
00:08:18,730 --> 00:08:19,950
It's going to be a beautiful night.

131
00:08:20,250 --> 00:08:21,630
So warm for spring.

132
00:08:22,030 --> 00:08:24,210
Yeah, looks like a long, hot summer.

133
00:08:28,430 --> 00:08:29,430
Mashed potatoes?

134
00:08:30,770 --> 00:08:32,929
Andrew, Mary is offering you the mashed
potatoes.

135
00:08:33,929 --> 00:08:35,450
Your mother's speaking to you, Andrew.

136
00:08:35,730 --> 00:08:38,350
Oh, excuse me, Mom. I guess I didn't
hear you.

137
00:08:38,610 --> 00:08:40,270
Guess I was living in a different world.

138
00:08:40,950 --> 00:08:42,110
I don't care for any things.

139
00:08:42,390 --> 00:08:43,390
No mashed potatoes.

140
00:08:43,570 --> 00:08:45,350
James, Andrew doesn't want any mashed
potatoes.

141
00:08:45,690 --> 00:08:47,190
What's the matter, son? You're not
hungry?

142
00:08:47,470 --> 00:08:48,470
No, I ain't.

143
00:08:49,420 --> 00:08:50,420
Am not.

144
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:52,360
Am not hungry.

145
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,000
There aren't any mashed potatoes in that
other world that Andy's living in.

146
00:08:56,500 --> 00:08:57,680
Or naval officers.

147
00:08:58,780 --> 00:09:02,200
Dad, may I be excused from the table,
please? I'm not feeling so well.

148
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:03,480
Oh, James, he's ill.

149
00:09:03,680 --> 00:09:04,680
Oh, dear, dear.

150
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:05,860
Mary, and call Dr. Jones.

151
00:09:06,220 --> 00:09:08,660
I'll get a hot bath ready right away.
No, no, Mom.

152
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:10,440
Ah, mother, mother, mother.

153
00:09:10,940 --> 00:09:14,840
There's nothing wrong with the boy I saw
this afternoon leaping around like a

154
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:15,739
mountain goat.

155
00:09:15,740 --> 00:09:17,280
I can diagnose his case.

156
00:09:17,870 --> 00:09:20,050
I saw Polly Benedict this afternoon in
the drugstore.

157
00:09:20,310 --> 00:09:22,510
The handsome young officer buying her a
soda.

158
00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:25,630
What's that got to do with Andrew not
wanting any mashed potatoes?

159
00:09:26,290 --> 00:09:27,870
How long hasn't you been to the dentist?

160
00:09:28,210 --> 00:09:29,330
Oh, Mom, please.

161
00:09:30,010 --> 00:09:32,310
It's only the uniform and brass buttons,
Andy.

162
00:09:32,830 --> 00:09:33,830
It won't last.

163
00:09:34,310 --> 00:09:37,190
Don't let it get you down, Sonny. If
she's fickle, you're well rid of her.

164
00:09:37,730 --> 00:09:40,370
Dad, can I please be excused from the
table?

165
00:09:40,770 --> 00:09:43,590
Does my little man feel a toothache when
he drinks cold water?

166
00:09:44,409 --> 00:09:47,030
Little man. Oh, Mom, please.

167
00:09:47,250 --> 00:09:49,850
There's some things that are too sacred
to talk about in public.

168
00:09:50,270 --> 00:09:54,150
It isn't the dinner. Gee, Mom, you're
the best cook in the world, but you know

169
00:09:54,150 --> 00:09:55,570
what I... I know, Andy.

170
00:09:56,250 --> 00:10:00,090
Maybe it's the sudden warm weather, Dad.
All right, sonny. Run along. Run along.

171
00:10:00,590 --> 00:10:03,850
Thanks, Dad. You know, a man isn't
altogether to blame when he finds he's

172
00:10:03,850 --> 00:10:05,230
developing into a sensitive type.

173
00:10:10,990 --> 00:10:12,930
It's his tonsils, maybe.

174
00:10:13,560 --> 00:10:14,519
Or his liver.

175
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:20,300
Mother, if what's bothering Andrew is
his liver, there's a million young men

176
00:10:20,300 --> 00:10:22,080
this world taking the wrong treatment.

177
00:10:44,140 --> 00:10:50,740
With spring evident in every bird and
blossom, Carvel will

178
00:10:50,740 --> 00:10:57,660
soon present a clean new face as a
result of the annual, quote, clean

179
00:10:57,660 --> 00:11:01,120
up our streets, unquote, campaign
period.

180
00:11:01,860 --> 00:11:06,960
The receipt of material... Wait a
minute, Dad. How do you spell receipt? I

181
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:07,960
E -I?

182
00:11:08,340 --> 00:11:10,720
That always fooled me, too, when I was a
boy.

183
00:11:11,260 --> 00:11:16,500
till I made myself remember the old
rhyme about I before E except after C.

184
00:11:16,820 --> 00:11:18,120
Oh, that's marvelous.

185
00:11:18,680 --> 00:11:24,920
R -E -C -E -I -P -T. I before E except
after C.

186
00:11:28,060 --> 00:11:30,720
Hey, Dad, how about weird, W -E -I -R
-D?

187
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,160
Huh?

188
00:11:33,620 --> 00:11:38,240
It's the way of the world, honey. For 30
years I've been living in a fool's

189
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,920
paradise about I and E.

190
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:41,860
Now, where were we here?

191
00:11:43,260 --> 00:11:46,160
If... It's a letter for you, Dad.

192
00:11:46,820 --> 00:11:47,960
Oh, thank you.

193
00:12:04,110 --> 00:12:07,470
in the rumba next. No, but you'll be
doing some arithmetic for me. You step

194
00:12:07,470 --> 00:12:10,070
my den and exercise that mind of yours
for a change. Do you good?

195
00:12:10,350 --> 00:12:11,710
Hop to it. Hop to it.

196
00:12:13,190 --> 00:12:16,170
You sit down to that desk and get
yourself a pencil and paper. You're

197
00:12:16,170 --> 00:12:17,390
do a lot of figuring for me.

198
00:12:19,010 --> 00:12:20,930
Now, use that pencil to write with.
Don't eat it.

199
00:12:21,750 --> 00:12:26,390
If a product sells for 20 cents a pound
in the open market... Got it. ...and is

200
00:12:26,390 --> 00:12:30,290
contained in soil that weighs
approximately one ton of the cubic

201
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,240
There's 8 % in the soil and 160 acres of
the soil.

202
00:12:34,540 --> 00:12:35,319
Mm -hmm.

203
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,300
But how far down are you going to dig?

204
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:40,620
Well, let's see. They say the depth of
the earth's crust is 100 miles deep.

205
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,480
Let's dig down 100 miles, Andy.

206
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,940
It's all right with me as long as I'm
not on the end of the shovel.

207
00:12:45,420 --> 00:12:47,880
Gee, Dad, I'm not going to have enough
paper to figure down 100 miles.

208
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,700
Well, then let's just dig down 10 miles.

209
00:12:51,020 --> 00:12:51,839
10 miles?

210
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:57,820
Yeah. 10 miles, all right. Let's see
what that is. That's 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

211
00:12:58,250 --> 00:13:01,150
That's $7 ,129 ,000 ,000 worth in that.

212
00:13:01,490 --> 00:13:03,350
Or 10 miles.

213
00:13:03,570 --> 00:13:04,950
Maybe it's $70 ,000 ,000 ,000.

214
00:13:05,390 --> 00:13:06,390
Good.

215
00:13:06,890 --> 00:13:10,250
Why, if we only dig down one foot or
five feet.

216
00:13:10,930 --> 00:13:14,810
Well, it looks to me there's only going
to be a lot of fun in this for all of us

217
00:13:14,810 --> 00:13:15,810
the next few weeks.

218
00:13:16,170 --> 00:13:17,170
$70 ,000 ,000.

219
00:13:17,570 --> 00:13:19,050
For me, it doesn't.

220
00:13:20,710 --> 00:13:27,410
Maybe your mother was right. Maybe you
do need some sulfur and

221
00:13:27,410 --> 00:13:28,410
molasses.

222
00:13:29,820 --> 00:13:33,760
Dad, sometimes I think families just lay
awake nights trying to figure out some

223
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:34,780
way to make a guy miserable.

224
00:14:14,990 --> 00:14:15,990
Class, attention, please.

225
00:14:17,110 --> 00:14:21,910
I'm sorry to say your dramatics teacher
is ill, so Miss Rose Meredith will take

226
00:14:21,910 --> 00:14:23,230
charge of the dramatics class.

227
00:14:23,830 --> 00:14:27,410
Miss Meredith comes to us from the state
university where she majored in

228
00:14:27,410 --> 00:14:31,470
dramatics. I hope you students will give
her a good impression of our school.

229
00:14:31,830 --> 00:14:32,830
Thank you, Mr. Davis.

230
00:14:33,830 --> 00:14:34,830
Good luck.

231
00:14:36,790 --> 00:14:40,910
I want you all to know that I'm glad to
be here with you, that I want us to be

232
00:14:40,910 --> 00:14:42,690
happy together and accomplish fine
things.

233
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,700
From your regular teacher's reports, I
see that your academic course of study

234
00:14:46,700 --> 00:14:47,820
for the term has been completed.

235
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:55,100
Leaving us for these last few weeks of
school, only the preparation of the

236
00:14:55,100 --> 00:14:56,100
annual play.

237
00:14:56,420 --> 00:14:58,260
Undoubtedly the most interesting part of
the course.

238
00:14:59,060 --> 00:15:02,980
I have, however, the permission of Mr.
Davis, our principal, to try out an

239
00:15:02,980 --> 00:15:06,500
innovation which has met with
considerable success and complete

240
00:15:06,500 --> 00:15:08,990
with... In the state university.

241
00:15:09,570 --> 00:15:12,990
In the past, your annual performance has
been of a selected choice out of the

242
00:15:12,990 --> 00:15:13,990
classics.

243
00:15:14,130 --> 00:15:17,090
Instead of presenting a published play,
I think it would be a fascinating

244
00:15:17,090 --> 00:15:20,930
experiment to have the whole project
carried out by the students so that when

245
00:15:20,930 --> 00:15:23,250
it's presented to an audience, it will
be a real accomplishment.

246
00:15:23,870 --> 00:15:25,390
The first thing is to write the play.

247
00:15:27,230 --> 00:15:30,290
For that, I'd suggest taking a well
-known drama and using it as a model.

248
00:15:31,330 --> 00:15:33,050
Try to build characters in the same way.

249
00:15:34,370 --> 00:15:37,630
I'll explain more fully tomorrow, but
please bring with you a suggestion for

250
00:15:37,630 --> 00:15:40,830
type of play you want to write and a
model from which you want to work.

251
00:15:42,070 --> 00:15:45,270
You might look up the plays of
Shakespeare, Sheridan's comedies, and so

252
00:15:45,770 --> 00:15:46,770
Thank you. Class dismissed.

253
00:15:51,470 --> 00:15:53,010
Boy, swell dish, huh, Andy?

254
00:15:53,610 --> 00:15:56,050
Looks like a lady to me. What you gonna
do now, Andy?

255
00:15:56,490 --> 00:15:58,190
I'm gonna be busy. Can I come along?

256
00:15:58,490 --> 00:16:01,050
No, now listen, stick -up buster, I've
got a lot of work to do and no time to

257
00:16:01,050 --> 00:16:02,050
spend with children.

258
00:16:02,140 --> 00:16:05,360
Say, do you suppose maybe we'll act in a
play that's got a moonlight effect in

259
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,560
it? Because I've got a swell idea how to
invent a moon.

260
00:16:08,180 --> 00:16:12,000
Gee, I'm just crazy about having a moon
in the play. I can't imagine anything

261
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,160
worse. Where are you going, B .C.? I'm
not going anyplace.

262
00:16:15,460 --> 00:16:18,180
Well, I think Camille's a little
advanced for our class, don't you?

263
00:16:18,380 --> 00:16:20,060
Well, I did it in the movies, didn't I?

264
00:16:20,460 --> 00:16:22,780
Well, yes, but you'll get another idea.

265
00:16:23,140 --> 00:16:27,220
Read Cyrano de Bergerac, or part of it,
tonight, why don't you? Yes, ma 'am. We

266
00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:28,179
sure will.

267
00:16:28,180 --> 00:16:29,640
Thank you. Thank you, Miss Meredith.

268
00:16:41,550 --> 00:16:42,550
Oh, did you want anything?

269
00:16:44,110 --> 00:16:48,430
Yeah, I wanted to ask you about that
theme you talked about.

270
00:16:48,950 --> 00:16:49,950
What did you mean?

271
00:16:50,570 --> 00:16:54,550
Well, for example, in Romeo and Juliet,
it's the theme of love that comes to a

272
00:16:54,550 --> 00:16:55,550
tragic end.

273
00:16:55,670 --> 00:16:58,030
A pair of star -crossed lovers take
their life.

274
00:16:58,430 --> 00:16:59,430
You remember?

275
00:17:00,190 --> 00:17:01,190
Yeah.

276
00:17:01,630 --> 00:17:02,790
No, yeah.

277
00:17:03,930 --> 00:17:07,210
What I mean is that, well, I never read
it, but I will read it.

278
00:17:08,089 --> 00:17:12,470
Say, if you don't mind my saying, I... I
think you've got a swell voice.

279
00:17:13,210 --> 00:17:14,210
Why, thank you.

280
00:17:14,329 --> 00:17:15,510
I've studied very hard.

281
00:17:15,750 --> 00:17:18,250
I think a pleasant voice is so
important, don't you?

282
00:17:18,450 --> 00:17:19,589
Yeah, I guess it is.

283
00:17:21,349 --> 00:17:23,510
Yes, I guess it is.

284
00:17:25,790 --> 00:17:27,310
Good. What's your name?

285
00:17:27,810 --> 00:17:31,130
Andrew Hardy, but all my friends call me
Andy.

286
00:17:31,470 --> 00:17:32,470
I see.

287
00:17:32,550 --> 00:17:35,370
Well, Andy, I hope you write a good
play. We'll need one.

288
00:17:35,690 --> 00:17:37,290
I'm going to write a swell one.

289
00:17:37,590 --> 00:17:38,670
A word of advice, though.

290
00:17:39,110 --> 00:17:41,310
Be sure you have a strong motivation for
the plot.

291
00:17:41,650 --> 00:17:42,650
My motivation?

292
00:17:45,270 --> 00:17:47,050
My motivation's perfect.

293
00:17:49,030 --> 00:17:51,770
Well, good night.

294
00:17:52,070 --> 00:17:54,130
Goodbye. I mean, good day.

295
00:17:57,790 --> 00:17:58,830
See you tomorrow.

296
00:18:02,450 --> 00:18:06,010
I wonder if you gentlemen appreciate the
magnitude of this thing.

297
00:18:06,270 --> 00:18:08,090
I tell you, it's a stump.

298
00:18:11,020 --> 00:18:12,320
Gentlemen? No, no, Judge.

299
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,340
Oh, what do you mean, no, no? I have the
soil analyzed myself.

300
00:18:16,780 --> 00:18:18,300
But it isn't a question of that.

301
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:19,459
Why not?

302
00:18:19,460 --> 00:18:22,780
Because the people who already
manufacture the metal aluminum have

303
00:18:22,780 --> 00:18:23,780
source of supply.

304
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,440
They certainly have no intention of
making anybody else rich.

305
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,020
Well, then, why did you bring me the
proposition?

306
00:18:30,740 --> 00:18:34,640
Well, we want to manufacture aluminum
ourselves, put up our own plant.

307
00:18:35,100 --> 00:18:38,220
It'll run into an investment of about
$100 ,000.

308
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,760
Mark and I already... have approximately
50 % of that money. Now, all we want

309
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,020
from you is your word that you'll sell
us the land at a sensible price.

310
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:48,320
Oh.

311
00:18:48,940 --> 00:18:50,860
Well, that sounds fair.

312
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,920
Of course, there aren't going to be any
enormous profits from this, you

313
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:59,240
understand, but very nice and very
steady ones. Well, thanks for your time,

314
00:18:59,360 --> 00:19:02,440
Judge. We'll work out a suitable offer
for the property, and then we want to

315
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:03,440
busy building the plant.

316
00:19:03,940 --> 00:19:05,160
Yes, yes, of course.

317
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,000
Bye, Judge, and thanks.

318
00:19:07,380 --> 00:19:08,580
Well, goodbye, Judge. Goodbye.

319
00:19:12,460 --> 00:19:15,440
Gentlemen, you said something about
having 50 % of the money.

320
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,040
What about the other half? Is money all
subscribed?

321
00:19:20,100 --> 00:19:24,540
Approximately. Because, frankly, I've
got about $3 ,000. I'd like to invest in

322
00:19:24,540 --> 00:19:28,020
something. Well, we do need about $17
,000.

323
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:29,880
What do you think?

324
00:19:30,140 --> 00:19:31,960
The judge has been fair with us.

325
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,260
And there are two other men in town who
might be interested. There's George

326
00:19:35,260 --> 00:19:38,340
Benedict. He's the president of the
Carvel Bank. No, no, no. This thing is

327
00:19:38,340 --> 00:19:39,500
good. We won't solicit anybody.

328
00:19:39,820 --> 00:19:41,460
Well, suppose I speak to him.

329
00:19:41,790 --> 00:19:44,970
No harm in asking them. We probably
won't need their money. Well, we'll be

330
00:19:44,970 --> 00:19:46,770
seeing you, Judge. We're opening an
office here.

331
00:19:47,090 --> 00:19:49,730
Well, in that case, you'll need a
secretary, won't you?

332
00:19:50,030 --> 00:19:51,030
Yes, we may.

333
00:19:51,150 --> 00:19:54,310
My daughter's been very anxious to get a
job in business life.

334
00:19:54,710 --> 00:19:56,890
I think you'd find her fairly efficient.

335
00:19:57,430 --> 00:19:59,110
I'd appreciate it if you'd interview
her.

336
00:19:59,710 --> 00:20:01,310
Yes, I'd be glad to.

337
00:20:01,510 --> 00:20:05,330
With the provision that I pay you her
salary. But she's not knowing anything

338
00:20:05,330 --> 00:20:06,029
about that.

339
00:20:06,030 --> 00:20:06,949
More than fair.

340
00:20:06,950 --> 00:20:09,870
Send her over to see us. I'll see you
tomorrow as soon as I get in touch with

341
00:20:09,870 --> 00:20:10,870
friends about the money.

342
00:20:11,050 --> 00:20:12,050
Goodbye, gentlemen.

343
00:20:12,290 --> 00:20:13,950
That looks good, George.

344
00:20:14,790 --> 00:20:17,270
Oh, that's all right, that's all right.
Don't thank me.

345
00:20:18,150 --> 00:20:20,490
Always like to let my friends in on the
ground floor.

346
00:20:21,470 --> 00:20:23,770
I'll send that laboratory report over in
the morning.

347
00:20:26,050 --> 00:20:28,550
That's very interesting. I'd like to see
that chemistry report.

348
00:20:29,370 --> 00:20:30,149
Thanks, Judge.

349
00:20:30,150 --> 00:20:31,150
Good night.

350
00:20:31,510 --> 00:20:33,330
Daddy, I wanted to talk to Andy.

351
00:20:33,530 --> 00:20:34,890
What's Andy got to do with this report?

352
00:20:35,270 --> 00:20:37,490
Oh, nothing. I just wanted to tell him
what I thought of him.

353
00:20:38,210 --> 00:20:39,630
Now, listen, Beattie, because it's
terrific.

354
00:20:40,300 --> 00:20:44,680
A Drift in Tahiti, play in three acts by
Andrew Hardy. If it's so terrific, why

355
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,020
don't you try it out on your own, folks?
Why pick on me?

356
00:20:47,260 --> 00:20:49,080
Well, my family haven't got any literary
appreciation.

357
00:20:49,380 --> 00:20:51,340
Well, I'll bet my dad hasn't even read
Romeo and Juliet.

358
00:20:51,740 --> 00:20:54,500
Listen, Rear Admiral Barrington, played
by Andrew Hardy.

359
00:20:54,860 --> 00:20:57,840
Native girl. I haven't got a name for
the native girl yet. If the Rear Admiral

360
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,080
marries the native girl, I don't want to
hear any more. No, the Rear Admiral

361
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,920
spurns her and she jumps into the
erupting volcano.

362
00:21:04,100 --> 00:21:05,100
Erupting volcano?

363
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,400
Yeah. Say, that's swell.

364
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,040
That is terrific.

365
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,960
Except that there aren't any erupting
volcanoes in Tahiti.

366
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,140
No volcanoes in Tahiti? Certainly not.
Ask anybody.

367
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,700
No volcanoes in Tahiti.

368
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,440
Are there any volcanoes on the island of
Tahiti?

369
00:21:30,660 --> 00:21:33,620
Why, I don't know, but the encyclopedia
is down in your father's den. Thanks.

370
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,240
I wonder what he's up to now.

371
00:21:37,710 --> 00:21:38,710
School work, I suppose.

372
00:21:39,150 --> 00:21:42,950
I'm going to budget my salary. They'll
stop me at $18 a week. $10 I'll give

373
00:21:42,950 --> 00:21:46,390
Mother for my room and board. Now,
Marion, I won't have it. Mother, that's

374
00:21:46,390 --> 00:21:48,190
nonsense. From now on, I'm going to pay
my way.

375
00:21:48,510 --> 00:21:53,350
That leaves $8 for car fare, lunches...
And silk stockings, laundry, having your

376
00:21:53,350 --> 00:21:55,190
hair done, pearl beads, new lipstick.

377
00:21:55,530 --> 00:21:58,770
Look it, Mom. How would it be if I start
giving you the $8 and I'll keep the

378
00:21:58,770 --> 00:21:59,770
$10?

379
00:22:00,090 --> 00:22:03,550
Oh, excuse me. Say, what's a beautiful
name for a native girl? Native girl?

380
00:22:03,550 --> 00:22:05,210
what is this? What kind of native girl?

381
00:22:05,410 --> 00:22:06,359
Very beautiful.

382
00:22:06,360 --> 00:22:09,720
Well, there's some lovely Indian ones.
Indian ones? Gosh, Mom, I can't get help

383
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:14,260
from nobody in this house. Andy, are
there volcanoes in Tahiti? I don't know.

384
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:15,239
You don't know?

385
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,720
Well, shucks, I couldn't get into the
den. Miss Meredith was using the phone.

386
00:22:17,860 --> 00:22:18,739
Who?

387
00:22:18,740 --> 00:22:22,140
Huh? Oh, I mean, Pop was phoning.

388
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,320
The rear admiral.

389
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,200
We never need to worry about supplies,
men.

390
00:22:34,190 --> 00:22:36,290
and points out to his hero -worshipping
crew a banana tree.

391
00:22:36,710 --> 00:22:37,810
A banana tree!

392
00:22:40,630 --> 00:22:41,630
Huh?

393
00:22:43,370 --> 00:22:44,450
A banana tree!

394
00:22:46,710 --> 00:22:47,850
He looks surprised.

395
00:22:49,070 --> 00:22:51,590
For under the banana tree is a pretty
little native girl who is sleeping.

396
00:22:51,850 --> 00:22:52,850
Red.

397
00:22:53,110 --> 00:22:55,510
But who is... But who is this?

398
00:22:56,150 --> 00:22:58,270
Gad, gentlemen, what a pretty girl!

399
00:22:58,690 --> 00:22:59,970
What a pretty girl!

400
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,280
The sound of his voice, the girl wakes
up and smiles at him, sits up and

401
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:05,280
stretches.

402
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,080
Author's note. I mean, she stretches her
arms up, but not like an exercise, just

403
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,080
natural.

404
00:23:13,700 --> 00:23:14,700
Rear Admiral.

405
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:15,860
He smiles at her.

406
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:19,520
What's your name?

407
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,460
Yeah, what's your name?

408
00:23:29,020 --> 00:23:30,020
What's your name?

409
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:31,880
What is your name?

410
00:23:32,660 --> 00:23:34,440
Well, my name is James Hardy.

411
00:23:35,180 --> 00:23:37,500
But I suspect it wasn't me you were
asking.

412
00:23:37,740 --> 00:23:40,540
This is a play I'm writing, Dad. I need
a name for the heroine.

413
00:23:40,740 --> 00:23:41,960
Is your play romantic?

414
00:23:42,340 --> 00:23:45,780
Well, it's spiritual, a play of love and
renunciation.

415
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,860
A pair of star -crossed lovers take
their lives.

416
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,340
That's from Romeo and Juliet.

417
00:23:53,820 --> 00:23:57,060
A pair of star -crossed lovers take
their life.

418
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:03,340
Whose misadventured, piteous overthrows
do with their death bury their parents'

419
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,160
strife. Why, Dad, I've been
underestimating you.

420
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,920
Oh, I played Romeo once when I was in
college.

421
00:24:10,140 --> 00:24:11,720
I was pretty good, too.

422
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:16,400
Oh, gee, I might have gone on for 50
years, you know, Dad, without even

423
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:17,400
appreciating Shakespeare.

424
00:24:17,780 --> 00:24:20,540
If it wasn't for Miss Meredith.

425
00:24:23,060 --> 00:24:24,060
Miss Meredith?

426
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:26,940
Yes, Miss Rose Meredith. That's our new
dramatic teacher.

427
00:24:27,310 --> 00:24:29,270
I think you heard me mention her name.

428
00:24:29,750 --> 00:24:31,010
Yes, I believe you did.

429
00:24:32,230 --> 00:24:35,970
Well, Dad, look, can I ask you something
very private, you know, man to man?

430
00:24:36,130 --> 00:24:37,250
That's our understanding.

431
00:24:37,470 --> 00:24:39,490
Well, then, come on, sit down, Dad, sit
down.

432
00:24:39,870 --> 00:24:40,870
All right.

433
00:24:41,590 --> 00:24:42,650
Dad? Hmm?

434
00:24:43,110 --> 00:24:44,510
I've been wasting my life.

435
00:24:45,330 --> 00:24:46,330
In what way?

436
00:24:46,530 --> 00:24:48,970
Well, whether you believe it or not, for
the past year, I've thought of nothing

437
00:24:48,970 --> 00:24:50,610
seriously except kissing girls.

438
00:24:50,930 --> 00:24:54,670
Well, now you're going to abandon all
that frivolity permanently.

439
00:24:55,750 --> 00:24:59,210
Hmm? Oh, yes, yes. I have a new outlook
on life.

440
00:24:59,510 --> 00:25:01,830
Something I wouldn't have had without
Miss Meredith.

441
00:25:02,470 --> 00:25:04,630
She's always talking about high ideals,
you know.

442
00:25:05,690 --> 00:25:08,990
Dad, do people still commit suicide for
love?

443
00:25:09,570 --> 00:25:11,870
Not civilized, intelligent people, no.

444
00:25:12,190 --> 00:25:14,710
Oh, she isn't civilized. She's a
primitive little savage.

445
00:25:15,070 --> 00:25:16,070
Miss Meredith?

446
00:25:16,490 --> 00:25:19,270
Oh, no, no. The heroine in my play.

447
00:25:19,490 --> 00:25:23,030
Oh. When she's spurned for
faithlessness, when she jumps into the

448
00:25:23,030 --> 00:25:24,030
volcano.

449
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:30,400
Well, sounds quite plausible the way you
put it, but I won't interrupt your

450
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:31,400
drama any longer.

451
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:38,300
But about our little man -to -man
moment, Andy, a good dose of ideals

452
00:25:38,300 --> 00:25:39,300
anybody yet.

453
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,200
Dad, look at me.

454
00:25:41,860 --> 00:25:47,720
Before I met Miss Meredith, I used to
think that kissing Polly Benedict was

455
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:48,740
important than Shakespeare.

456
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,080
Now remember, that's the proscenium arch
and those are the tormentors.

457
00:26:06,340 --> 00:26:07,880
The first border is the teaser.

458
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,160
All the rest are sky and wood borders.

459
00:26:10,940 --> 00:26:14,720
Oh, I have one announcement to make. The
English department and myself decided

460
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,740
last night on the student play which
we're going to present.

461
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:21,820
We've chosen a play entitled Adrift in
Tahiti, written by Andrew Hardy.

462
00:26:31,950 --> 00:26:33,150
Andy, I'd like to see you after class.

463
00:26:33,570 --> 00:26:34,570
Class dismissed.

464
00:26:38,510 --> 00:26:41,370
Tell me, Andrew, how'd you happen to
write it?

465
00:26:41,670 --> 00:26:45,030
Well, I took Romeo and Juliet and
changed it a little bit.

466
00:26:45,730 --> 00:26:48,370
I moved it from Italy to the South Sea
Islands.

467
00:26:48,750 --> 00:26:52,990
And I took Romeo and made him a rear
admiral in the United States Navy.

468
00:26:53,410 --> 00:26:57,470
And naturally, I had to change Juliet to
a pretty little South Sea Island native

469
00:26:57,470 --> 00:27:00,550
girl. And then I wrote a whole new plot.

470
00:27:01,130 --> 00:27:03,370
I think my new ending is a lot better
than Shakespeare's.

471
00:27:03,810 --> 00:27:04,830
It's more spiritual.

472
00:27:05,410 --> 00:27:08,210
You mean where the poor little native
girl jumps into the flaming volcano?

473
00:27:08,650 --> 00:27:12,050
Yeah, that's it. Of course, at first she
begs her admiral not to leave her, but

474
00:27:12,050 --> 00:27:15,150
you don't care nothing about her, so she
jumps. You know, I think it's going to

475
00:27:15,150 --> 00:27:16,530
be really terrific with a volcano.

476
00:27:16,770 --> 00:27:17,790
I'm sure it will.

477
00:27:18,210 --> 00:27:20,130
Honest, you don't know what this play
means to me, Rose.

478
00:27:25,350 --> 00:27:26,450
Well, I'm sorry, Andrew.

479
00:27:26,670 --> 00:27:30,330
Of course we're friends, but if you
called me Rose, it might step out in

480
00:27:31,100 --> 00:27:32,100
Oh, gee,

481
00:27:32,820 --> 00:27:33,820
I'm sorry.

482
00:27:33,860 --> 00:27:35,820
I wouldn't do anything to offend you.

483
00:27:37,100 --> 00:27:38,160
Honest, I wouldn't.

484
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:39,840
Miss Meredith.

485
00:27:40,340 --> 00:27:41,340
Andrew!

486
00:27:41,860 --> 00:27:42,860
Andrew!

487
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,260
Darling, please, we'll wait you ten
minutes for dinner.

488
00:27:46,900 --> 00:27:48,360
Everything getting cold.

489
00:27:49,340 --> 00:27:50,820
Now, James, what were you saying?

490
00:27:51,100 --> 00:27:55,000
Well... The upshot of the matter is
this. I've been elected president of the

491
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,100
Carvel Aluminum Corporation, George
Benedict's vice president. I tell you,

492
00:27:59,100 --> 00:28:01,080
the biggest thing that ever hit Carvel.

493
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:02,320
Isn't that nice?

494
00:28:02,780 --> 00:28:03,780
Andrew!

495
00:28:04,220 --> 00:28:07,060
Oh, good gracious, that boy must be
sick. He's never late for dinner.

496
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,200
James, that's wonderful. What's the next
step?

497
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,780
Well, now that all the money's
subscribed, Willett and Hanson are going

498
00:28:12,780 --> 00:28:13,880
at once to build the factory.

499
00:28:14,260 --> 00:28:15,920
Of course, I could have told you all
that.

500
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,680
I took minutes of the meeting.

501
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,040
Oh, dear.

502
00:28:27,530 --> 00:28:28,530
going to a funeral?

503
00:28:30,010 --> 00:28:31,850
I'm sorry to have been late for dinner,
Mother.

504
00:28:32,090 --> 00:28:33,370
When did you get the sore throat?

505
00:28:35,070 --> 00:28:37,070
I'm enjoying the best of health, Miss
Hardy.

506
00:28:37,570 --> 00:28:39,570
Well, are you going out, Andy?

507
00:28:40,530 --> 00:28:43,150
No, Mother, I can't go out tonight.

508
00:28:44,350 --> 00:28:46,390
I have a lot of work to do.

509
00:28:46,870 --> 00:28:48,550
What, may I ask?

510
00:28:48,810 --> 00:28:52,550
Oh, I have a few problems to work out
with the dramatic class play Miss

511
00:28:52,550 --> 00:28:53,550
is putting on.

512
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,000
Miss Meredith is our new dramatic class
teacher.

513
00:28:57,780 --> 00:29:00,940
She's staying at the Blodgetts. Oh, the
drama.

514
00:29:01,940 --> 00:29:05,100
That accounts for your voice sounding
like molasses dripping downstairs.

515
00:29:05,740 --> 00:29:08,560
Is that so? What accounts for you not
minding your own business?

516
00:29:08,820 --> 00:29:11,180
That's the Andrew Hardy we know and
love.

517
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,140
Thank goodness they've finally chosen
the play and I will get someplace.

518
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,640
Well, whose play did they choose?

519
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:22,040
Oh, uh, they've chosen mine. Miss
Meredith announced it today. But

520
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:23,120
that's...

521
00:29:25,860 --> 00:29:29,260
It's really nothing, Mother. I think
it's a great deal.

522
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,260
You must have had inspiration, Andy.

523
00:29:33,660 --> 00:29:36,680
Yes, Dad, I... I sure did.

524
00:29:37,180 --> 00:29:39,500
Is there a meeting tonight? Is that what
you're all dressed up for?

525
00:29:40,100 --> 00:29:44,000
Oh, I'm just acting my age. I simply
dress for dinner.

526
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:45,259
Simply my eye.

527
00:29:45,260 --> 00:29:47,900
Have you forgotten what it's taken to
get you to even wash your hands for

528
00:29:47,900 --> 00:29:49,460
dinner? Goodness sake, don't discourage
him.

529
00:29:49,820 --> 00:29:50,820
Heavens, no.

530
00:29:51,070 --> 00:29:53,710
Well, the only thing is, I believe that
if a person's going to sing, he should

531
00:29:53,710 --> 00:29:56,870
sing. And if he's going to talk, he
should talk. Not try and do both things

532
00:29:56,870 --> 00:30:02,370
once. Is that so? You're very smart.
Miss Meredith said... Miss Meredith said

533
00:30:02,370 --> 00:30:05,070
that if I'm going to be a lawyer like my
father, I must develop my voice.

534
00:30:06,030 --> 00:30:09,350
She said that you can sway the emotions
with the human voice.

535
00:30:10,470 --> 00:30:11,850
And boy, is she right.

536
00:30:12,250 --> 00:30:15,770
Why, a man with a right voice could rock
the civilized world.

537
00:30:17,139 --> 00:30:21,160
Well, if you don't mind, don't rock the
civilized world after I've had my

538
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,660
dinner. I'm starved.

539
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,760
How dare you criticize my play when Miss
Meredith said that it was a swell play?

540
00:30:33,980 --> 00:30:37,340
You deliberately wrote the ending to
your horrid old play to humiliate me.

541
00:30:37,380 --> 00:30:39,020
then, why don't you refuse to play,
Tahula?

542
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,500
You know perfectly well... I know why.
It's because you don't want to give up

543
00:30:42,500 --> 00:30:43,580
the leading role. That's why.

544
00:30:51,150 --> 00:30:54,830
On the Admiral's first line, T 'hula
must come out from the palm tree. Andy,

545
00:30:54,830 --> 00:30:56,770
cross toward her so she won't have so
far to walk.

546
00:30:57,070 --> 00:30:58,070
Do it.

547
00:30:58,370 --> 00:31:02,190
So you thought that... No, wait for the
lines. After her first line, then you

548
00:31:02,190 --> 00:31:04,610
take her in your arms and kiss her. And
that's the curtain.

549
00:31:04,830 --> 00:31:06,090
Oh, after. Yes, all right.

550
00:31:07,770 --> 00:31:10,210
So you thought that I'd forgotten you, T
'hula.

551
00:31:10,450 --> 00:31:11,990
T 'hula's so unhappy.

552
00:31:12,810 --> 00:31:16,150
T 'hula's so unhappy she want to die in
the blue lagoon.

553
00:31:16,610 --> 00:31:18,070
Come on, Andy, walk forward.

554
00:31:18,390 --> 00:31:19,319
Gee, I forgot.

555
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,600
Miss Meredith, do I wait until Andy gets
up to me before I say my last line?

556
00:31:22,700 --> 00:31:23,700
That's right.

557
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,420
You don't want me to die, do you?

558
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,200
Well, come on, kiss me.

559
00:31:58,510 --> 00:31:59,509
Well, never mind.

560
00:31:59,510 --> 00:32:02,850
We'll rehearse this in private until
Andy's gotten over his self

561
00:32:03,070 --> 00:32:05,310
Well, he certainly has changed.

562
00:32:05,990 --> 00:32:10,430
Miss Meredith, it's so public.

563
00:32:11,130 --> 00:32:13,890
Well, what are you going to do when you
get in front of an audience of 500

564
00:32:13,890 --> 00:32:14,890
people?

565
00:32:17,190 --> 00:32:18,830
Oh, my gosh.

566
00:32:20,190 --> 00:32:21,730
I forgot about that.

567
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,359
Miss Meredith.

568
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:16,360
Oh.

569
00:33:17,060 --> 00:33:18,800
Oh, I thought everybody had gone.

570
00:33:22,860 --> 00:33:23,960
You tired?

571
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,400
There's a funny thing about tiredness.
Sometimes it's awful nice, and other

572
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,440
times it makes you feel like you've been
standing in front of one of those

573
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:32,580
crooked mirrors at the carnival.

574
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,160
Everything's sort of out of perspective.

575
00:33:36,020 --> 00:33:37,020
Yeah, that's it.

576
00:33:38,660 --> 00:33:39,980
It's like living in a nightmare.

577
00:33:40,490 --> 00:33:43,830
You know, I kind of had an idea the very
first time I saw you that you were sort

578
00:33:43,830 --> 00:33:46,170
of tragic, like Romeo and Juliet.

579
00:33:50,130 --> 00:33:51,130
Oh.

580
00:33:52,670 --> 00:33:54,630
Say, please, please don't do that.

581
00:33:55,690 --> 00:33:56,690
Please don't cry.

582
00:33:57,250 --> 00:33:59,310
Oh, I'm sorry, Andy.

583
00:33:59,690 --> 00:34:00,690
I apologize.

584
00:34:00,990 --> 00:34:05,350
I guess I'm just a little overtired. Oh,
can I help? No, no thanks. Gee.

585
00:34:05,950 --> 00:34:09,090
What? Well, I've never seen a woman cry
before.

586
00:34:09,639 --> 00:34:14,300
Oh, I've seen my mother cry, but that's
different. But never anybody like you.

587
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,980
Well, it's... It's terrible.

588
00:34:17,659 --> 00:34:20,900
Oh, don't take it too seriously, Andy. I
shouldn't have been in front of you.

589
00:34:21,420 --> 00:34:22,420
Well, why not?

590
00:34:22,860 --> 00:34:24,300
Because it's my own problem.

591
00:34:24,580 --> 00:34:26,739
And I have no right to impose it on
anyone else.

592
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:31,199
Well, I just want to know because I like
you so much. Andy!

593
00:34:31,580 --> 00:34:34,020
Well, I wanted to know what made you
cry.

594
00:34:34,500 --> 00:34:35,500
Sit down, Andy.

595
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,100
Andy, you know you're skating on
dangerous ground.

596
00:34:41,420 --> 00:34:44,500
Why am I? You know I'm a teacher and
you're my student.

597
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:46,400
I wish I weren't.

598
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:51,880
I used to hate old man Hamill, the
algebra teacher, but I wish I were him

599
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,120
have some rights.

600
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:54,780
But you're not, Mr. Hamill.

601
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:59,260
You're a young boy, and I have a
responsibility toward you, and you've

602
00:34:59,260 --> 00:35:00,260
toward me.

603
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,880
Neither one of us must step over that
line of teacher -student.

604
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,400
Though that doesn't mean we can't be
friends.

605
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:07,360
Friends?

606
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,440
When you cried, I wanted to... Come on,
Andy. It's time to shut up shop.

607
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,460
The building will be locked in a few
minutes. Oh, well, Miss Meredith, I

608
00:35:16,460 --> 00:35:19,660
done anything to make you mad at me,
have I? No, Andy. Well, there's one

609
00:35:19,700 --> 00:35:23,240
You wouldn't talk like this in front of
anybody in the whole school, except me,

610
00:35:23,260 --> 00:35:24,320
or maybe in the whole world.

611
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:26,180
Good night, Andy. I'll see you tomorrow.

612
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:30,420
Miss Meredith, I'll have to see you
every day till school closes.

613
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,360
Sometime I'd like to tell you about the
very special reason I had for writing my

614
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:35,360
play.

615
00:35:35,740 --> 00:35:38,100
Now it turns out that I have an entirely
different reason.

616
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,120
One a million times as important.

617
00:35:40,460 --> 00:35:44,700
Some other time, Andy. Is it true that
Romeo was just 18 years old? Something

618
00:35:44,700 --> 00:35:45,359
like that.

619
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,020
I'm going to be 18 soon myself.

620
00:35:47,820 --> 00:35:49,520
Well, good night. Good night, Andy.

621
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,360
Give me the Carvel Hotel. I don't know
the number.

622
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,600
Hello?

623
00:35:59,140 --> 00:36:00,620
Has Mr. Willard or Mr.

624
00:36:00,820 --> 00:36:01,840
Hanson come in yet?

625
00:36:03,820 --> 00:36:04,820
Oh, I see.

626
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,000
No, no, no, never mind. I've already
left a message.

627
00:36:09,980 --> 00:36:10,980
Come in.

628
00:36:13,780 --> 00:36:14,780
Oh.

629
00:36:15,240 --> 00:36:16,960
What's the matter? Did you think I was
somebody else?

630
00:36:17,380 --> 00:36:18,920
Well, I was expecting Marion.

631
00:36:19,260 --> 00:36:20,360
She isn't home yet.

632
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:22,860
Dad? Hmm?

633
00:36:23,140 --> 00:36:27,920
Do you remember me mentioning to you
about that we had a new teacher, Miss

634
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:28,920
Meredith?

635
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,580
Yes, yes, I believe you did mention it.

636
00:36:31,980 --> 00:36:34,120
Why? Well, she just...

637
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,240
Started me thinking about these women
that look older than they are in years.

638
00:36:37,580 --> 00:36:40,340
You believe that spiritually she's
nearer your age?

639
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:41,800
Yeah.

640
00:36:42,540 --> 00:36:43,540
Yeah.

641
00:36:44,020 --> 00:36:50,720
I was upstairs thinking about it. I
thought that I'd come downstairs and...

642
00:36:50,720 --> 00:36:52,440
Well, it's strange, isn't it?

643
00:36:53,260 --> 00:36:54,260
What's strange?

644
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:58,500
About growing up. One minute you feel
and think and act like a kid.

645
00:36:58,940 --> 00:37:01,720
Next minute, well, you just aren't. What
makes the difference?

646
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:03,320
Well, there's...

647
00:37:05,100 --> 00:37:06,820
Well, the things that happened to you.

648
00:37:07,100 --> 00:37:08,480
I got to think about the future.

649
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,480
This business about life being a bowl of
cherries, it's all right for some guy

650
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:13,880
that hasn't got anything on his mind.

651
00:37:14,340 --> 00:37:16,180
What do you got on your mind, Andrew?

652
00:37:16,780 --> 00:37:17,658
Oh, nothing.

653
00:37:17,660 --> 00:37:19,600
Nothing at all, Dad. Honest, I was just
talking.

654
00:37:20,260 --> 00:37:21,880
But changing the subject. Yes?

655
00:37:22,500 --> 00:37:25,420
What is there about it that just kills
you to see a woman cry?

656
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:29,760
A woman, Andy?

657
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:31,400
Yeah.

658
00:37:31,620 --> 00:37:32,720
Somebody grown up.

659
00:37:33,860 --> 00:37:34,860
Wonderful.

660
00:37:35,930 --> 00:37:36,930
Beautiful.

661
00:37:39,170 --> 00:37:42,510
Gee, there'll be a full moon in a couple
of days.

662
00:37:44,970 --> 00:37:46,830
Well, thanks, Dad.

663
00:37:47,070 --> 00:37:49,690
All right, you're welcome, Andy. Say,
Dad, there's a lot of things I want to

664
00:37:49,690 --> 00:37:50,830
talk over with you one of these days.

665
00:37:52,970 --> 00:37:56,670
Oh, I, uh... I, uh... Huh?

666
00:37:57,690 --> 00:37:58,690
Oh, nothing.

667
00:38:01,450 --> 00:38:03,250
Oh, Marion, come right in, dear.

668
00:38:03,470 --> 00:38:06,060
Dad's waiting for you. Well, thank you.
Don't mention it.

669
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:10,200
Why, he didn't even slam the door.

670
00:38:11,300 --> 00:38:13,760
Mother said you wanted to see me.

671
00:38:14,220 --> 00:38:15,860
I do, decidedly.

672
00:38:16,340 --> 00:38:19,740
As a matter of fact, I wanted to see
you, too.

673
00:38:19,980 --> 00:38:20,980
You did?

674
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:22,519
Look here.

675
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,980
Why didn't Willett return my telephone
call this afternoon?

676
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,400
Because he didn't come back to the
office after luncheon.

677
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:29,880
Oh.

678
00:38:30,540 --> 00:38:33,380
Dad, I know you've invested money in
this aluminum company.

679
00:38:33,850 --> 00:38:35,870
I know you've gotten Mr. Benedict and
the others in on it.

680
00:38:36,790 --> 00:38:39,570
I think you ought to know that no
material has been ordered for the plant.

681
00:38:39,850 --> 00:38:42,470
Not one thing has been done to get the
aluminum business started.

682
00:38:42,870 --> 00:38:43,870
Nothing?

683
00:38:45,350 --> 00:38:47,130
I'll put an end to that mystery
tomorrow.

684
00:38:47,570 --> 00:38:49,950
How? I'll go to the office with you in
the morning.

685
00:38:51,490 --> 00:38:53,410
They usually get here around 9 .30.

686
00:38:53,870 --> 00:38:55,590
I've got all the time in the world to
wait.

687
00:39:05,670 --> 00:39:06,670
They've taken all the things.

688
00:39:07,190 --> 00:39:08,190
What?

689
00:39:08,710 --> 00:39:09,710
Oh, Dad.

690
00:39:10,370 --> 00:39:13,830
Now, now. Steady, daughter. Steady. But
what'll we do?

691
00:39:14,450 --> 00:39:19,430
Well, you stay right here. Answer the
phone as usual. Make any excuse you like

692
00:39:19,430 --> 00:39:23,050
for Willett and Hanson not being here.
But don't say anything to anybody, not

693
00:39:23,050 --> 00:39:24,050
even at home.

694
00:39:24,110 --> 00:39:25,110
I won't, dear.

695
00:39:25,770 --> 00:39:28,690
Dad, keep that chin up.

696
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,760
I'm so sorry, Judge Hardy. Mr. Benedict
is still upstairs in a minute.

697
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,960
They expect him to be through in about
half an hour. Won't you come in and

698
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,040
Thanks. No, no. If you don't mind, I'll
just sit here and wait.

699
00:39:50,240 --> 00:39:53,220
This is Miss Rose Meredith. Please tell
them that the makeup must be delivered

700
00:39:53,220 --> 00:39:55,100
this afternoon. We're having a dress
rehearsal tonight.

701
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:56,800
Thank you.

702
00:39:59,620 --> 00:40:01,920
Miss Meredith, I'm Judge Hardy.

703
00:40:02,300 --> 00:40:05,880
Oh, of course. How do you do, Judge
Hardy? We've heard a great deal about

704
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,080
our house. And I've heard about you too,
needless to say.

705
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,380
Well, I believe we should exchange views
on the mutual source of our

706
00:40:11,380 --> 00:40:13,800
information. Got time for a little
visit?

707
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:15,080
Well, I'll take time.

708
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,900
I've just been depositing the proceeds
from our ticket sale.

709
00:40:18,140 --> 00:40:19,140
Oh, how's it going?

710
00:40:19,380 --> 00:40:22,920
Nicely, thank you. The townspeople seem
curious to see a home -written play, and

711
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,380
everyone's intrigued with the idea of
seeing a live volcano in action. And

712
00:40:26,380 --> 00:40:27,380
frankly, so am I.

713
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,540
You know, I have great faith in our
boys. Yeah, we get that volcano for

714
00:40:31,540 --> 00:40:32,940
breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

715
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:34,780
And he's a remarkable boy.

716
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:36,560
You must be proud of him, Judge.

717
00:40:36,780 --> 00:40:37,780
Yes, I am.

718
00:40:38,500 --> 00:40:39,940
Fundamentally, he's a good boy, too.

719
00:40:40,620 --> 00:40:42,080
Quite impressionable, though.

720
00:40:42,300 --> 00:40:43,118
I know.

721
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,980
I sometimes wonder what the world's
going to do to him.

722
00:40:46,240 --> 00:40:47,240
What do you mean?

723
00:40:47,700 --> 00:40:52,020
I guess every parent dreads the day when
his child will get his first real hurt.

724
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:53,520
Judge Hardy.

725
00:40:53,540 --> 00:40:55,780
Hmm? What are you trying to say to me?

726
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:01,040
What I'm trying to say is, Andy worships
at your shrine.

727
00:41:01,900 --> 00:41:06,180
If you were a different type of girl, I
wouldn't dare say anything. But I think

728
00:41:06,180 --> 00:41:08,380
I judge your quality pretty well, Miss
Meredith.

729
00:41:09,180 --> 00:41:12,420
So I'm sort of placing myself at your
mercy.

730
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,520
So please try and don't hurt him.

731
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,520
I'm going to take it as a compliment
that you've talked to me this way. It

732
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:21,520
meant that way.

733
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,440
And I promise you, I won't hurt him.

734
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:25,799
Thank you.

735
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:26,800
Thank you, Miss Meredith.

736
00:41:27,060 --> 00:41:28,019
Judge Hardy.

737
00:41:28,020 --> 00:41:31,080
Mr. Benedict is tied up. He said he'd
see you at the Aluminum Corporation

738
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:32,200
directors' meeting tomorrow.

739
00:41:32,420 --> 00:41:33,420
Is there any message?

740
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,020
No. No, thank you. Well, I really must
be going.

741
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,100
I'm awfully glad we had this little
talk. It's been a privilege.

742
00:41:40,460 --> 00:41:41,460
Goodbye. Bye.

743
00:41:45,100 --> 00:41:46,740
Hey, just a moment, everybody.

744
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:48,360
Quiet, just for a minute.

745
00:41:49,540 --> 00:41:53,540
I want to take this moment before we
begin our dress rehearsal to thank you

746
00:41:53,540 --> 00:41:54,540
for your cooperation.

747
00:41:54,910 --> 00:41:58,310
Things will be hectic tomorrow night and
school's over the next day. So I wanted

748
00:41:58,310 --> 00:41:59,310
to say goodbye to you now.

749
00:42:00,030 --> 00:42:02,750
This has been one of the most delightful
experiences I've ever had.

750
00:42:03,290 --> 00:42:06,870
And I feel that never again will I have
such charming, delightful young people

751
00:42:06,870 --> 00:42:07,709
to work with.

752
00:42:07,710 --> 00:42:11,210
Thank you, all of you, for being so
sweet and kind to a new teacher.

753
00:42:12,290 --> 00:42:13,290
Go ahead,

754
00:42:14,210 --> 00:42:15,210
do it.

755
00:42:15,510 --> 00:42:16,770
Go on, go on.

756
00:42:23,720 --> 00:42:29,940
Well, we kind of like you a lot, too,
and in behalf of the class,

757
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:36,860
we... This is for you. Oh, thank you,
all of you.

758
00:42:37,300 --> 00:42:39,200
Go ahead and open it. All right.

759
00:42:44,860 --> 00:42:45,860
Well,

760
00:42:48,620 --> 00:42:51,600
there's just nothing to say except that
it's perfect.

761
00:42:52,810 --> 00:42:55,390
I suggested picking out Romeo and
Juliet.

762
00:42:56,550 --> 00:42:58,310
Feel it. The man said it was real
leather.

763
00:42:58,550 --> 00:42:59,710
Let me feel.

764
00:43:00,010 --> 00:43:01,030
It is real.

765
00:43:01,290 --> 00:43:03,350
All right. Come on, everybody. Now let's
get...

766
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:23,760
Paradise indeed, Admiral.

767
00:43:24,020 --> 00:43:25,400
We don't need to worry about supplies.

768
00:43:29,860 --> 00:43:31,420
Andy, where'd you get that mustache?

769
00:43:32,180 --> 00:43:34,660
Well, I kind of thought maybe it'd give
me a little more dignity.

770
00:43:34,980 --> 00:43:37,360
If Rear Admiral hasn't got dignity, what
has he got?

771
00:43:37,820 --> 00:43:39,980
I think you'd be much more dignified
without it.

772
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:44,000
Personally, I prefer the clean -shaven,
tight -lipped, square -jawed type of

773
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,000
naval officer.

774
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:49,180
Well, Miss Meredith, maybe I could wear
a gray mustache, you know, grizzled with

775
00:43:49,180 --> 00:43:50,560
the storms of the seven seas.

776
00:43:51,460 --> 00:43:53,660
That'd make you look too old. You'd look
50.

777
00:43:53,980 --> 00:43:55,180
50? Me, 50?

778
00:43:55,460 --> 00:43:58,320
Oh, gee, that'd be terrible.

779
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,060
Well, all right, then. I'll be the kind
of rear admiral that gets the top on

780
00:44:02,060 --> 00:44:03,260
seamanship alone.

781
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:05,600
Oh, wow.

782
00:44:06,020 --> 00:44:08,380
You ask me why I'm a bitter man, Tahula.

783
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,440
Ah, but what does a little unspoiled
native girl like you know of such

784
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:14,120
Smoother with the moon.

785
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,800
But I can guess you do not like us.

786
00:44:18,380 --> 00:44:20,360
No, no, you do not understand.

787
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:25,440
Stick and plaster, easy with the moon.

788
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,280
But how can you be so unhappy on a night
like this with the moon?

789
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:31,960
Oh, yeah, the moon.

790
00:44:32,660 --> 00:44:34,720
Louder, please. I can't hear you back
here.

791
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,260
Oh, yes, the moon.

792
00:44:37,720 --> 00:44:41,480
That guy's going to ruin the moon
effect. Did you see it? Do I see it?

793
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:42,720
you think I am, at the public library?

794
00:44:43,220 --> 00:44:44,540
Hey, stick and plaster.

795
00:44:45,060 --> 00:44:48,900
Look, let me get up there and show you
just a little bit of what's going on

796
00:44:48,900 --> 00:44:52,400
here. You're too jerky with the moon.
It's got to go a lot smoother.

797
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:54,160
Look like this.

798
00:44:54,900 --> 00:44:56,320
You see what I'm doing? Look up there.

799
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:57,680
Nice and easy.

800
00:44:58,220 --> 00:45:02,660
Slow. Yeah, Andy, I'll sure try. Well,
trying's no good. You gotta do it. Now,

801
00:45:02,660 --> 00:45:03,660
let me see you do it once.

802
00:45:05,020 --> 00:45:06,780
Slower. Slow down. Nice and easy.

803
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:11,760
I came here a happy, carefree man, but
now I leave with a heart of lead.

804
00:45:12,260 --> 00:45:13,118
No, no.

805
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:15,120
Do not go and leave little Tuhula.

806
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:16,580
Why shouldn't I go?

807
00:45:16,980 --> 00:45:19,000
Why shouldn't I leave someone as
faithless as you?

808
00:45:19,240 --> 00:45:20,240
No, no.

809
00:45:20,300 --> 00:45:21,560
I gave you my dreams.

810
00:45:22,170 --> 00:45:23,170
I walked with you in the moonlight.

811
00:45:24,050 --> 00:45:26,370
I told you things about me that no one
else has ever known.

812
00:45:26,650 --> 00:45:27,650
Get ready with the volcano.

813
00:45:28,230 --> 00:45:30,530
Remember the flowers, the white ones I
gave you?

814
00:45:30,930 --> 00:45:34,270
Well, I might have known what you felt
by the way you tossed them aside, but I

815
00:45:34,270 --> 00:45:35,270
picked them up, do you hear?

816
00:45:36,110 --> 00:45:37,110
You ready with the volcano?

817
00:45:37,510 --> 00:45:40,850
I was going to keep them with me for the
rest of my life, but I've thrown them

818
00:45:40,850 --> 00:45:41,850
away now.

819
00:45:41,970 --> 00:45:44,710
I've thrown them away along with my
illusions of you.

820
00:45:45,930 --> 00:45:48,350
Why didn't you tell me you were in love
with someone else?

821
00:45:48,710 --> 00:45:49,710
Why didn't you...

822
00:45:52,720 --> 00:45:53,860
Oh, there's nothing you can say.

823
00:45:54,260 --> 00:45:55,980
Push in the plugs, Beezy, and stand by
the switch.

824
00:46:02,580 --> 00:46:03,578
Come on.

825
00:46:03,580 --> 00:46:05,520
Come on, Polly, you're spoiling the
scene.

826
00:46:06,240 --> 00:46:08,280
I... I forgot my lines.

827
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,260
Give me my cue, please, once.

828
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:11,900
No, there's nothing you can say.

829
00:46:13,140 --> 00:46:15,100
No, there's nothing you can say!

830
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,860
with everybody. We're not going to touch
that volcano until after the

831
00:46:35,860 --> 00:46:36,860
rehearsal's over.

832
00:46:37,260 --> 00:46:39,820
Now, I know we've all worked very hard
and we're all tired.

833
00:46:40,460 --> 00:46:42,500
We've just simply got to pull ourselves
together.

834
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:48,860
Andy, I think you'd better use your own
voice, please. Oh, but... Oh, well, all

835
00:46:48,860 --> 00:46:49,960
right, if you say so.

836
00:46:50,580 --> 00:46:53,940
Even with your costume, I don't think
your admiral's voice is quite natural

837
00:46:54,140 --> 00:46:57,440
Well, it may not be natural, but it
certainly does make me feel naval.

838
00:46:58,840 --> 00:46:59,840
Good night. Good night.

839
00:47:00,180 --> 00:47:02,340
Miss Meredith, what do we do about the
volcano?

840
00:47:02,910 --> 00:47:05,790
We'll fix it tomorrow. Don't worry about
a thing, Beasy. All right. Good night.

841
00:47:08,590 --> 00:47:09,730
Late as usual, Andy.

842
00:47:10,410 --> 00:47:13,650
Yes, I guess so. Don't be discouraged
about the volcano.

843
00:47:14,070 --> 00:47:15,250
I thought it was splendid.

844
00:47:15,710 --> 00:47:17,190
Did you really like it? Mm -hmm.

845
00:47:17,470 --> 00:47:20,670
Well, that's swell, because we made it
specially for you.

846
00:47:21,130 --> 00:47:24,670
We wanted to show up the rest of the
dramatic class teachers that we've had.

847
00:47:25,650 --> 00:47:29,190
We wanted your play to be the best, you
know, colossal. I think it has every

848
00:47:29,190 --> 00:47:30,190
chance to be.

849
00:47:30,290 --> 00:47:31,290
Well, good night.

850
00:47:33,419 --> 00:47:36,380
The show was really terrible, though,
wasn't it? Well, you know what they say

851
00:47:36,380 --> 00:47:37,680
about bad dress rehearsals.

852
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:42,840
Yeah, I know, but there were so many
things that were wrong with it.

853
00:47:43,100 --> 00:47:45,640
Andy, are you trying to make
conversation?

854
00:47:46,260 --> 00:47:47,260
What?

855
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:50,200
Yes, I guess so.

856
00:47:50,900 --> 00:47:55,420
But tonight will be the last night I'm
ever going to see you, isn't it? No,

857
00:47:55,420 --> 00:47:56,420
there's tomorrow.

858
00:47:57,060 --> 00:48:00,060
Yeah, I know, but there'll be a million
people milling around and...

859
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:06,920
The next day school closes and the next
day you'll be gone. And I'll take the

860
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:08,300
memory of a good friend with me.

861
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:11,080
Can I ask a favor of you?

862
00:48:12,220 --> 00:48:13,220
What?

863
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:18,040
Well, can I walk home with you?

864
00:48:18,580 --> 00:48:19,580
Oh, no, Andy.

865
00:48:26,820 --> 00:48:27,820
Andy.

866
00:48:39,500 --> 00:48:40,960
Gee, it's a swell night out, isn't it?

867
00:48:41,700 --> 00:48:44,180
How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this
bank.

868
00:48:45,020 --> 00:48:48,980
Look how the floor of heaven is thick
and laid with patterns of bright gold.

869
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,180
That's from Romeo and Juliet.

870
00:48:51,420 --> 00:48:56,100
Gee, I used to think that Shakespeare
stuff was all a bunch of junk, but when

871
00:48:56,100 --> 00:48:57,980
you say it, it all sounds sort of
different.

872
00:48:58,280 --> 00:48:59,280
Isn't that peculiar?

873
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:00,320
No.

874
00:49:00,580 --> 00:49:03,540
Oh, wait just a minute. Got all stuck up
here.

875
00:49:03,940 --> 00:49:04,940
Wait.

876
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:06,120
There we are.

877
00:49:06,660 --> 00:49:08,540
Gee, they're awful pretty.

878
00:49:11,730 --> 00:49:13,830
Here. Yeah, I wish they were orchids.

879
00:49:14,030 --> 00:49:15,750
Boy, I think this is a lot nicer, Andy.

880
00:49:16,270 --> 00:49:17,790
Orchids are little zombies, don't you
think?

881
00:49:18,410 --> 00:49:21,330
They cost a lot of money, yes, but
there's more poetry to these.

882
00:49:21,610 --> 00:49:23,710
Gosh, I never thought about that before.

883
00:49:24,850 --> 00:49:27,230
Gee, will I ever again meet somebody
like you?

884
00:49:27,490 --> 00:49:30,330
Suppose when I'm all grown up, suppose I
only meet the orchid kind.

885
00:49:30,850 --> 00:49:31,850
Yes, Andy.

886
00:49:35,250 --> 00:49:38,410
I... I want somebody like you.

887
00:49:47,509 --> 00:49:48,890
Andy. Sit down, Andy.

888
00:49:49,150 --> 00:49:51,650
You aren't going to lecture me, are you?
Well, I think that would be very

889
00:49:51,650 --> 00:49:54,470
unkind. Well, then can I speak before
you do?

890
00:49:54,770 --> 00:49:55,770
If you like.

891
00:49:56,070 --> 00:50:00,750
Then can I be sure that you won't laugh
at me? Of course I won't.

892
00:50:01,770 --> 00:50:03,430
That's another thing I like about you.

893
00:50:03,910 --> 00:50:09,330
Well, what I want to know is that... Can
you believe that...

894
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:17,180
that somebody my age can be in love?

895
00:50:18,220 --> 00:50:19,220
Yes, I can.

896
00:50:21,660 --> 00:50:24,140
I'm going to get a job this summer and
start earning my own living.

897
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:26,940
I've got a couple of swell ideas that
might turn out all right.

898
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,460
I'm younger than you are, but you're not
very much older than me.

899
00:50:32,060 --> 00:50:38,180
What I want to know is, could I ever
have any kind of a

900
00:50:38,180 --> 00:50:39,780
chance with you?

901
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,520
You're a very attractive boy, Andy,
but... You like me? Well, I know you do.

902
00:50:44,820 --> 00:50:47,840
But, Andy, dear, there's so many
barriers between you and me. Don't you

903
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:52,380
understand? I'm... I'm trying to ask you
to... to marry me.

904
00:50:53,580 --> 00:50:55,640
Kind of an important step to take, I
know.

905
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,280
Gee, I never thought about marrying
anybody before.

906
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:00,420
Never asked anybody before, either.

907
00:51:00,940 --> 00:51:04,460
Thank you for the compliment, Andy. But
I must be honest with you. Oh, don't,

908
00:51:04,460 --> 00:51:06,920
don't, don't say it. I know what you're
gonna say.

909
00:51:07,820 --> 00:51:09,760
Oh, darn it. Why did I have to be born
younger?

910
00:51:09,980 --> 00:51:12,640
Andy, listen to me. I won't listen to
you. I won't go through with a play.

911
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:15,100
I'm going to hop a freight and get out
of town. I'm not going to stick around

912
00:51:15,100 --> 00:51:17,960
here. I'm going to go anyplace, but I
won't stay around here. Now, stop that.

913
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:20,420
Don't ever try and fool me that you'd be
a quitter.

914
00:51:21,260 --> 00:51:24,780
500 people are coming to the auditorium
tomorrow to be entertained, and we're

915
00:51:24,780 --> 00:51:26,200
going to give them the best show we can.

916
00:51:27,140 --> 00:51:30,880
And, Andy, we won't do it if we get
confused and all emotional and tied into

917
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:31,880
knots tonight.

918
00:51:38,009 --> 00:51:40,770
Listen, suppose we call this an
unfinished story.

919
00:51:42,450 --> 00:51:43,450
What do you mean?

920
00:51:44,210 --> 00:51:47,070
Tomorrow night after the play's over, I
want a few minutes with you alone.

921
00:51:48,210 --> 00:51:49,790
I want to tell you a story, Andy.

922
00:51:50,570 --> 00:51:53,090
Then you must make your own answer to
the question you asked me tonight.

923
00:51:54,270 --> 00:51:55,270
Is it a deal?

924
00:51:57,250 --> 00:51:58,250
Okay, it's a deal.

925
00:51:58,650 --> 00:51:59,650
And now I'm going in.

926
00:51:59,930 --> 00:52:00,930
Good night, Andy.

927
00:52:01,150 --> 00:52:02,150
Good night.

928
00:52:41,220 --> 00:52:42,620
Come in, come in, come in, come in.

929
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:44,880
Can I come in?

930
00:52:45,860 --> 00:52:48,500
You not only can, Andy, you may also.

931
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:51,780
Dad. Uh -huh.

932
00:52:52,380 --> 00:52:56,020
I think it's only fair to let you know
that I'm making some plans for the

933
00:52:56,020 --> 00:52:57,440
future. No, no, no, no, no.

934
00:52:57,660 --> 00:53:03,200
Not tonight, not tonight. Let's not... I
apologize, son.

935
00:53:04,260 --> 00:53:07,280
I've never before declined to listen to
your problems, no more now.

936
00:53:07,700 --> 00:53:09,040
Come on. Come on, Ab.

937
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,080
If you're too tired... No, no, no.

938
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:12,560
Well,

939
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,080
what are the plans?

940
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:19,680
Well, Dad, I've decided to get a job
this summer and stop loafing around.

941
00:53:20,140 --> 00:53:23,980
I've got a couple of swell ideas that
might work out, and if they click, well,

942
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:25,920
I'll go right on. I won't go back to
school this fall.

943
00:53:26,180 --> 00:53:27,540
You mean you're not going to finish high
school?

944
00:53:28,300 --> 00:53:29,840
No, I want to make some money.

945
00:53:30,460 --> 00:53:34,260
Well, what about college? I thought you
wanted to be a lawyer.

946
00:53:34,720 --> 00:53:37,360
I've discovered there's a lot more
important things beside college.

947
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:39,260
Well, maybe you're right.

948
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,200
What brought about these sudden changes?

949
00:53:43,260 --> 00:53:47,740
I... I want to get married.

950
00:53:49,820 --> 00:53:50,820
What?

951
00:53:53,500 --> 00:53:55,180
Yes, Dana, I do.

952
00:53:57,560 --> 00:53:58,560
Oh.

953
00:53:59,180 --> 00:54:00,180
Oh, I see.

954
00:54:01,420 --> 00:54:05,060
Well, of course, your mother's going to
ask you the same question, so I may as

955
00:54:05,060 --> 00:54:06,060
well.

956
00:54:06,740 --> 00:54:07,740
Married to whom?

957
00:54:08,380 --> 00:54:09,380
Rose Meredith.

958
00:54:09,720 --> 00:54:11,740
Oh, very nice young lady.

959
00:54:12,980 --> 00:54:16,120
But isn't there a considerable
difference in your ages?

960
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:17,940
Well, I'm putting her 17.

961
00:54:18,180 --> 00:54:20,660
That makes me almost 21, really.

962
00:54:20,860 --> 00:54:22,200
And she's 23.

963
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:27,280
That makes her just a little beyond 21.
So what's all the fuss over a year's

964
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:28,280
difference?

965
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:35,460
Well, I'd always thought that a
difference in ages should always be in

966
00:54:35,460 --> 00:54:38,910
favor. Dad, you're always thinking about
today. I'm thinking about the future.

967
00:54:39,270 --> 00:54:42,910
When we're past 30 and we can settle
down and grow old gracefully together.

968
00:54:46,630 --> 00:54:49,910
Andy, you listen to your dad for a
minute, will you?

969
00:54:50,910 --> 00:54:56,290
Are you ready to take on
responsibilities that you're not even

970
00:54:56,290 --> 00:54:58,410
instead of patiently growing up to them?

971
00:54:58,910 --> 00:55:01,290
Well, the younger you get married, the
sooner you grow up.

972
00:55:03,220 --> 00:55:06,620
Thousands of young people have gone on
that ferry only to be crippled for life.

973
00:55:07,500 --> 00:55:13,960
Now, are you prepared to give up your
basketball and your baseball, your

974
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:18,580
parties, little dances, our summer
vacations together?

975
00:55:19,540 --> 00:55:23,660
Are you ready to give up all the happy
things that young people of your age are

976
00:55:23,660 --> 00:55:24,660
entitled to?

977
00:55:25,300 --> 00:55:28,100
Now, don't you be trapped into being an
adult.

978
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:30,420
You grow into it.

979
00:55:31,340 --> 00:55:32,340
Dad, I...

980
00:55:32,540 --> 00:55:35,360
I guess this is one time that you and I
can't hear each other.

981
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,900
That's all right. That's all right,
Andy.

982
00:55:38,720 --> 00:55:40,460
We know each other's there.

983
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:43,820
Dad, you're a swell guy.

984
00:55:46,020 --> 00:55:48,280
When are you going to ask the young
lady?

985
00:55:48,660 --> 00:55:49,720
I asked her tonight.

986
00:55:49,980 --> 00:55:51,420
She's going to answer me tomorrow night.

987
00:55:52,500 --> 00:55:56,060
Well, Andy, I hope... You hope what,
Dad?

988
00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:59,360
I hope that nobody gets hurt.

989
00:56:00,100 --> 00:56:01,100
Oh, gosh.

990
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:02,360
I wouldn't hurt her.

991
00:56:04,100 --> 00:56:06,800
Gee, I wish it was tomorrow night.

992
00:57:16,529 --> 00:57:18,650
Just what did you eat away from home
today?

993
00:57:18,890 --> 00:57:22,750
I haven't had anything, Emily. I haven't
got indigestion. Now, don't tell me,

994
00:57:22,810 --> 00:57:25,670
James Hardy. I'm going right away to get
your medicine. And I'm not going to

995
00:57:25,670 --> 00:57:28,790
take any more of that horrible stuff, so
you go on to bed. You're not only going

996
00:57:28,790 --> 00:57:31,330
to take it, but I'm going to give you
two spoonfuls. Oh.

997
00:57:33,750 --> 00:57:36,110
James, what's the matter?

998
00:57:37,450 --> 00:57:38,870
Oh, everything.

999
00:57:41,090 --> 00:57:42,550
Emily, I've been a fool.

1000
00:57:43,839 --> 00:57:47,940
I smelled some lilacs in bloom, and for
the first time in my life, I got greedy.

1001
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:50,260
Well, I don't see any harm in that.

1002
00:57:50,860 --> 00:57:52,580
Well, I've lost a lot of money.

1003
00:57:53,380 --> 00:57:57,560
And you know how hard it is and how long
it takes for us to save, and half of it

1004
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,680
belongs to you, and I've lost it.

1005
00:57:59,900 --> 00:58:00,900
Well, I'll get it back.

1006
00:58:01,260 --> 00:58:02,360
You will pay me back.

1007
00:58:03,060 --> 00:58:06,900
Besides, have you forgotten the time I
took $152 of yours to buy that

1008
00:58:06,900 --> 00:58:07,900
encyclopedia set?

1009
00:58:08,220 --> 00:58:10,060
And we never heard another thing from
the salesman.

1010
00:58:10,620 --> 00:58:13,080
Well, that isn't the worst of it.

1011
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:17,060
There's some other men in this town
dragged into the trap with me, and they

1012
00:58:17,060 --> 00:58:19,440
in in good faith because I endorsed the
deal.

1013
00:58:19,860 --> 00:58:20,860
Oh, James.

1014
00:58:21,020 --> 00:58:23,360
There's no chance of paying them back
their money.

1015
00:58:23,740 --> 00:58:25,120
We don't have enough.

1016
00:58:27,020 --> 00:58:29,020
Yet, I'm responsible.

1017
00:58:31,700 --> 00:58:35,620
James, you know, there's the nicest,
comforting saying.

1018
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:38,040
And it's comforting because it's true.

1019
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,200
What? There's always tomorrow.

1020
00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:46,880
There's always another chance, another
opportunity to find some way out.

1021
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:48,480
Out.

1022
00:58:49,300 --> 00:58:51,200
It looks so black, Emily.

1023
00:58:52,900 --> 00:58:53,900
Does it, dear?

1024
00:58:57,020 --> 00:58:58,280
Suppose you look here.

1025
00:59:05,100 --> 00:59:06,860
Darkest before the dawn, darling.

1026
00:59:14,030 --> 00:59:17,050
With that kind of faith, I'll start
fresh in the morning.

1027
00:59:18,390 --> 00:59:20,190
There's got to be some way out.

1028
00:59:23,890 --> 00:59:27,150
Well, what do you say to a cup of
coffee, Emmy?

1029
00:59:28,830 --> 00:59:32,390
Oh, I love these early spring mornings.
No more spring.

1030
00:59:32,710 --> 00:59:35,430
No, sir. I'm through with that spring
for you forever.

1031
00:59:39,510 --> 00:59:40,509
Morning, Judge.

1032
00:59:40,510 --> 00:59:41,630
Oh, say, listen, Judge.

1033
00:59:42,250 --> 00:59:45,370
I'm a member of the Taxpayers' Protest
Committee, and we need a little legal

1034
00:59:45,370 --> 00:59:47,350
advice. Protest Committee about what?

1035
00:59:47,630 --> 00:59:50,370
We're going to raise a little cane with
the town council about this road

1036
00:59:50,370 --> 00:59:52,130
building. Raise cane? What for?

1037
00:59:52,510 --> 00:59:55,310
Why, that dumb bunch of councilmen is
importing gravel.

1038
00:59:55,550 --> 00:59:59,130
Get that. Bringing gravel in from
another county to use on our roads.

1039
00:59:59,370 --> 01:00:01,430
And at a price that'd make your hair
curl.

1040
01:00:01,870 --> 01:00:02,870
Bringing in gravel?

1041
01:00:03,390 --> 01:00:06,150
Yeah, you'd think they were buying gold
dust the way they're paying money.

1042
01:00:06,530 --> 01:00:09,070
And who pays the bill? We do. The
taxpayers.

1043
01:00:09,970 --> 01:00:11,270
Bring it in gravel, then.

1044
01:00:11,580 --> 01:00:12,580
Uh -huh.

1045
01:00:13,420 --> 01:00:14,540
You say gravel?

1046
01:00:14,860 --> 01:00:15,860
Why, yes.

1047
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:17,940
They're bringing in gravel?

1048
01:00:24,700 --> 01:00:28,640
Well, gentlemen, Mr. Willett and Mr.
Hanson, having been called out of town,

1049
01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:32,440
it's my unpleasant duty to bring some
bad news to the directors of the Carvel

1050
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:33,440
and Luman Corporation.

1051
01:00:33,700 --> 01:00:34,740
Bad news, Jeff?

1052
01:00:34,940 --> 01:00:35,940
The, uh...

1053
01:00:36,170 --> 01:00:40,890
City of Carvel demand that we sell them
the aqueduct property for its nominal

1054
01:00:40,890 --> 01:00:43,310
value as a source of gravel.

1055
01:00:43,970 --> 01:00:45,730
Gravel? This is a loutry.

1056
01:00:46,790 --> 01:00:52,110
The town council have been paying
exorbitant prices for gravel when right

1057
01:00:52,170 --> 01:00:54,350
close at hand, is an unlimited supply.

1058
01:00:54,930 --> 01:00:56,030
Then we're not going to make aluminum.

1059
01:00:56,250 --> 01:00:58,650
They can't do this to us. They can and
they will.

1060
01:00:59,370 --> 01:01:02,590
They'll condemn the property and take it
over.

1061
01:01:03,050 --> 01:01:05,430
We'll fight. We'll carry to the Supreme
Court.

1062
01:01:05,650 --> 01:01:06,650
Just a minute, boys.

1063
01:01:06,750 --> 01:01:09,950
Frankly, I'd agree to fight to protect
our money by fair means or foul.

1064
01:01:10,430 --> 01:01:13,270
If you weren't in this with us, Judge,
isn't that right?

1065
01:01:13,530 --> 01:01:17,270
Yes. I don't think any of us would like
to see Jim Hardy fighting the taxpayers

1066
01:01:17,270 --> 01:01:18,510
of Carville. No.

1067
01:01:20,230 --> 01:01:21,790
That's a mighty fine sentiment.

1068
01:01:25,270 --> 01:01:27,550
Gentlemen, what I told you is true.

1069
01:01:28,050 --> 01:01:30,650
But it's based on a lie.

1070
01:01:34,350 --> 01:01:39,870
I've been trying to save my own face,
but... I can't go through with it.

1071
01:01:41,210 --> 01:01:42,830
Willett and Hanson have disappeared.

1072
01:01:43,390 --> 01:01:46,410
And they've taken our $17 ,000 with
them.

1073
01:01:46,890 --> 01:01:51,250
What about the chemistry report? The
land has 8 % aluminum. I had that

1074
01:01:51,250 --> 01:01:53,110
yesterday by a friend of mine at the
state university.

1075
01:01:53,550 --> 01:01:56,170
The entire surface of the earth is 8 %
aluminum.

1076
01:01:56,450 --> 01:02:00,450
But it's commercially impractical to
extract it. Well, I'll be... Well, if

1077
01:02:00,450 --> 01:02:03,030
town's going to buy the land for gravel,
we're saved.

1078
01:02:04,750 --> 01:02:05,870
By the skin of her teeth?

1079
01:02:06,370 --> 01:02:08,510
Saved by nothing of the kind. By you.

1080
01:02:08,930 --> 01:02:12,910
You can't tell me that you didn't talk
the city into buying this property. You

1081
01:02:12,910 --> 01:02:17,370
bet. Well, gentlemen, you only went into
this aluminum business on my say -so.

1082
01:02:17,950 --> 01:02:23,250
Well, I'll tell you something, Judge. I
had that aqueduct soil tested secretly

1083
01:02:23,250 --> 01:02:25,610
myself. So did I. Me too.

1084
01:02:25,870 --> 01:02:30,050
I suppose, Higginbotham, you and I were
the only two that took the judge's word

1085
01:02:30,050 --> 01:02:31,050
for it. Me?

1086
01:02:31,270 --> 01:02:33,390
I sent a sample of the soil to Chicago.

1087
01:02:33,950 --> 01:02:34,828
You see, Judge?

1088
01:02:34,830 --> 01:02:37,870
What? You don't mean to say that you put
out $1 ,500 without checking up?

1089
01:02:38,150 --> 01:02:41,970
Don't be a fool. I drove all the way
into the city to have some tested.

1090
01:02:42,170 --> 01:02:47,470
And there it was, 8 % bauxite. You see,
Jim, we were all wise guys.

1091
01:02:47,750 --> 01:02:49,210
Well, I feel a little better.

1092
01:02:49,950 --> 01:02:52,750
Fortunately, the town will give us our
money back and a little more.

1093
01:02:53,550 --> 01:02:54,790
You mean we get a profit?

1094
01:02:55,230 --> 01:02:58,230
About 10%. 10 %?

1095
01:02:58,450 --> 01:03:00,830
Well, boys, that's better than a kick in
the pants.

1096
01:03:01,610 --> 01:03:07,010
As my son Andy would say, it's even,
Steven, and a little better. Andy, I

1097
01:03:07,010 --> 01:03:10,030
we adjourn. I've got to order flowers
for my daughter Polly, her first high

1098
01:03:10,030 --> 01:03:10,948
school play tonight.

1099
01:03:10,950 --> 01:03:13,010
My son has charge of the volcano.

1100
01:03:13,670 --> 01:03:17,650
My son has charge of the moon. I caught
him on top of the roof with a pair of

1101
01:03:17,650 --> 01:03:20,970
apple glasses at three o 'clock this
morning, looking at the moon and

1102
01:03:20,970 --> 01:03:21,970
smoothly.

1103
01:03:22,950 --> 01:03:25,810
Judge, are you represented in this high
school play, too?

1104
01:03:26,070 --> 01:03:27,110
Am I represented?

1105
01:03:28,620 --> 01:03:32,260
My son Andrew wrote the play and is
enacting the leading male role.

1106
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,320
And as for that volcano, my son invented
it.

1107
01:03:37,580 --> 01:03:38,780
You sure it fits all right?

1108
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:40,660
No wrinkles across the back, is it?

1109
01:03:41,260 --> 01:03:44,300
Don't sag, does it? Say, what are you
trying to do? Be one of the ten best,

1110
01:03:44,300 --> 01:03:46,280
men in the world? It's okay. It's fine.

1111
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:48,060
Well, everything's got to be all right.

1112
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,380
I don't want anything to go wrong on
this Meredith's account.

1113
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:52,460
Say, I wonder what Rosie's all excited
about.

1114
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:53,680
The show.

1115
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:57,220
Uh -uh. Say, Stickenplaster got here at
quarter to six this morning to practice

1116
01:03:57,220 --> 01:03:59,880
on the moon. He said there was a
telegram waiting for him. Well, it was

1117
01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,500
a telegram from her mother and father
wishing her success. Pardon in five

1118
01:04:02,500 --> 01:04:03,500
minutes, fellas.

1119
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:09,500
Am I all right? Oh, you're perfect.

1120
01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:11,420
Lots of luck tonight, Polly dear.

1121
01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:14,640
Are you coming to my garden party after
the show? Oh, I'm sorry, Polly, but I

1122
01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:17,480
have a sudden and imperative engagement.
But I hope you'll have a very happy

1123
01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:18,480
time.

1124
01:04:18,570 --> 01:04:22,210
They say happiness is contagious, and
I'm hoping mine will spread. Because I'm

1125
01:04:22,210 --> 01:04:23,490
very happy person tonight.

1126
01:04:23,830 --> 01:04:24,830
Curtain in five minutes.

1127
01:04:24,970 --> 01:04:26,270
It's got to be smooth.

1128
01:04:26,490 --> 01:04:27,950
It's got to be smooth.

1129
01:04:28,650 --> 01:04:30,270
It's got to be smooth.

1130
01:04:30,670 --> 01:04:31,670
Curtain in five minutes.

1131
01:04:36,370 --> 01:04:37,370
Wait a minute.

1132
01:04:42,230 --> 01:04:46,670
Hurry up. I want to get a look at it.
Wait, wait.

1133
01:04:46,940 --> 01:04:49,140
Just a minute with you. My family are
coming in right now.

1134
01:05:00,780 --> 01:05:02,140
Won't she be quite sane?

1135
01:05:02,540 --> 01:05:03,680
I guess it's the excitement.

1136
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:06,120
Oh, dear.

1137
01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:06,979
What's the matter?

1138
01:05:06,980 --> 01:05:10,220
I've never known it to fail. Look, they
spelled Andy's name wrong.

1139
01:05:14,830 --> 01:05:16,830
at least one type of graphical error in
these things.

1140
01:05:17,910 --> 01:05:19,690
What on earth do you suppose this is?

1141
01:05:19,950 --> 01:05:23,030
Huh? Moan, by Harmon Higginbottom, Jr.

1142
01:05:24,190 --> 01:05:27,090
Moan, me? That means moon that Andy's
been talking about.

1143
01:05:27,690 --> 01:05:29,630
Oh, dear, I'm so nervous I can hardly
bear it.

1144
01:05:29,890 --> 01:05:30,868
What's the matter?

1145
01:05:30,870 --> 01:05:34,670
I suppose if he gets his lines... He
shouldn't. He wrote them.

1146
01:05:55,370 --> 01:05:57,410
What are you doing? Rehearsing the line?
I'm praying.

1147
01:05:57,750 --> 01:05:59,810
Well, stop praying and start acting.
That's you.

1148
01:06:01,250 --> 01:06:02,990
Tropic paradise indeed, Admiral.

1149
01:06:03,330 --> 01:06:07,130
We don't have to worry about supplies,
men. Look, a banana tree.

1150
01:06:07,870 --> 01:06:09,390
But who is this?

1151
01:06:10,410 --> 01:06:11,830
Hendrickson, what a pretty girl.

1152
01:06:12,510 --> 01:06:13,590
What is your name?

1153
01:06:14,070 --> 01:06:16,410
Tahula. She speaks English.

1154
01:06:16,790 --> 01:06:18,970
How is it you speak the white man's
tongue, Tahula?

1155
01:06:19,370 --> 01:06:20,730
Oh, many moons ago.

1156
01:06:21,110 --> 01:06:22,250
A steam canoe.

1157
01:06:22,590 --> 01:06:24,030
Like one that brings you.

1158
01:06:24,670 --> 01:06:26,470
Came here across the great sea.

1159
01:06:26,990 --> 01:06:28,430
But the storms came.

1160
01:06:28,970 --> 01:06:30,250
The canoe, she sink.

1161
01:06:30,770 --> 01:06:33,450
One white god like you is saved.

1162
01:06:34,050 --> 01:06:35,510
He marry native girl.

1163
01:06:35,970 --> 01:06:37,150
She my mother.

1164
01:06:37,530 --> 01:06:38,730
He my father.

1165
01:06:39,530 --> 01:06:41,310
Wait, I have button from his coat.

1166
01:06:41,670 --> 01:06:44,830
Off with your hat, Hendrickson. We're in
the presence of our heroic dead.

1167
01:06:45,110 --> 01:06:48,450
At last we know the ghastly fate of our
American heroes who were lost at sea in

1168
01:06:48,450 --> 01:06:49,470
the great wind of 17.

1169
01:06:51,190 --> 01:06:53,150
You're a very pretty girl, Tahula.

1170
01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:57,500
And to think of it, Hendrickson, this
beautiful olive -skinned creature is a

1171
01:06:57,500 --> 01:06:58,500
daughter of the USA.

1172
01:07:04,220 --> 01:07:06,440
You ask me why I'm such a bitter man to
her.

1173
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:10,400
Ah, but what does a little unspoiled
native girl like you know of such

1174
01:07:10,740 --> 01:07:11,820
But I can guess.

1175
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:15,480
You do not like us. No, no, you do not
understand.

1176
01:07:16,460 --> 01:07:20,760
But how can you be so unhappy on a night
like this with the moon?

1177
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:22,520
Ah, yes.

1178
01:07:22,940 --> 01:07:23,879
The moon.

1179
01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:30,420
In our happy country here, the moon is,
how you say, the harvest time for love.

1180
01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:33,600
Love? Not for me, my little savage
maiden.

1181
01:07:33,820 --> 01:07:35,460
I come from Sterner's dock.

1182
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:39,480
My father once told me that love and
duty do not mix, and I come here on duty

1183
01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:40,158
hold it.

1184
01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:43,160
But soon you will have finished the guns
you put up on our island.

1185
01:07:43,860 --> 01:07:46,060
Yes, and then I must return to my native
land.

1186
01:08:11,850 --> 01:08:14,950
my responsibilities, my duty to my
country.

1187
01:08:15,370 --> 01:08:18,770
The hula's so unhappy she wants to die
in the Blue Lagoon.

1188
01:08:19,390 --> 01:08:23,350
You don't want the hula to die, do you?
I swear to you.

1189
01:08:44,140 --> 01:08:45,520
and until you can get hold of yourself.

1190
01:08:46,359 --> 01:08:47,700
But they all laughed.

1191
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:51,240
But only at the moon, not at you or
Polly or the play.

1192
01:08:51,840 --> 01:08:54,840
Now, you just pick yourself up for that
third act and you go out there and give

1193
01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:57,479
them such a performance that they'll
forget all about the moon and think only

1194
01:08:57,479 --> 01:08:58,479
about what you're saying.

1195
01:08:58,620 --> 01:08:59,680
But I'll be terrible.

1196
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:03,500
I don't feel like acting. I don't feel
like talking about love or any of that

1197
01:09:03,500 --> 01:09:05,939
junk. Be a good sport, Andy. Don't quit
now.

1198
01:09:06,180 --> 01:09:07,540
The show must go on, you know.

1199
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:10,560
Yeah, all right.

1200
01:09:10,779 --> 01:09:11,920
The show will go on.

1201
01:09:12,620 --> 01:09:15,040
But I'll never forgive sticking plaster
as long as I live.

1202
01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:19,260
Imagine, the rear admiral is kissing his
sweetheart and the moon is doing a

1203
01:09:19,260 --> 01:09:20,740
rumba. Good luck, Andy.

1204
01:09:40,819 --> 01:09:42,779
Whoa! It's Daddy there.

1205
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:45,760
Say, can you tell me where I can find
Miss Meredith? You know, Miss Rose

1206
01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:48,000
Meredith. Why, yes, she's over there
somewhere.

1207
01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:49,520
Oh, thanks.

1208
01:10:06,700 --> 01:10:09,180
Woe is me. Oh, woe is me.

1209
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:11,880
My heart is heavy with sorrow.

1210
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:14,040
Go on, Andy. Go on. That's your cue.

1211
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:18,380
You have come back to Tahula.

1212
01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:22,120
You have come back to Tahula.

1213
01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,700
No, I have not come back to you, Tahula.

1214
01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:30,020
No, I have not come back to you, Tahula.

1215
01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:32,660
No, I have not come back to you, Tahula.

1216
01:10:33,640 --> 01:10:37,360
Did your great white father make you go
away from little Tahula?

1217
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:41,920
I came here a happy, carefree man. Now I
leave with a heart of lead.

1218
01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:44,560
No, no.

1219
01:10:44,620 --> 01:10:46,700
Do not go and leave little Tahula.

1220
01:10:47,180 --> 01:10:48,400
Why shouldn't I go?

1221
01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:53,300
Why shouldn't I go?

1222
01:10:54,740 --> 01:10:57,200
Why shouldn't I leave someone as
faithless as you are?

1223
01:10:57,940 --> 01:10:59,200
I gave you my dreams.

1224
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:01,500
I walked with you in the moonlight.

1225
01:11:02,380 --> 01:11:04,740
I told you things about me no one else
has ever known.

1226
01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:07,520
Remember the flowers I gave you?

1227
01:11:07,900 --> 01:11:08,900
The white ones?

1228
01:11:09,820 --> 01:11:12,820
I might have known what you felt by the
way you tossed them aside.

1229
01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:16,660
I was going to keep them with me for the
rest of my life.

1230
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:19,960
Now I've thrown them away.

1231
01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,600
Thrown them away along with my illusions
about you.

1232
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:26,480
Why didn't you tell me there was someone
else?

1233
01:11:27,420 --> 01:11:30,940
Why didn't you tell me you were in love
with someone else all the time? No, no.

1234
01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:33,400
Well, there's nothing you can say.

1235
01:11:35,050 --> 01:11:37,610
I trusted you and you betrayed me.

1236
01:11:40,090 --> 01:11:42,710
Andy. Andy, darling. Give me my cue.

1237
01:11:47,770 --> 01:11:48,770
Andy, what's wrong?

1238
01:11:49,050 --> 01:11:50,050
Give me my cue.

1239
01:11:50,970 --> 01:11:51,809
Oh, no.

1240
01:11:51,810 --> 01:11:53,310
There's nothing you can say.

1241
01:11:53,610 --> 01:11:54,850
Yes, yes. I love you.

1242
01:11:56,470 --> 01:11:58,950
Go back to your sweetheart.

1243
01:12:00,130 --> 01:12:02,410
Tell him he's welcome to anyone as
fickle as you are.

1244
01:12:03,530 --> 01:12:05,770
As for me, thank heaven I have my work.

1245
01:12:07,750 --> 01:12:10,310
And from this moment on... No, no, have
mercy.

1246
01:12:10,810 --> 01:12:12,110
I'm through with women.

1247
01:12:14,010 --> 01:12:16,950
Come back. Come back to Tahoma.

1248
01:12:21,070 --> 01:12:22,670
Mother, what's the matter?

1249
01:12:22,970 --> 01:12:23,970
I can't help it.

1250
01:12:24,550 --> 01:12:26,570
I've lost my little baby boy.

1251
01:12:28,390 --> 01:12:31,330
He's all grown up and talking about
love.

1252
01:12:56,749 --> 01:12:58,970
Come on, you've got to take a curtain
call.

1253
01:12:59,750 --> 01:13:00,750
Come on.

1254
01:13:18,530 --> 01:13:19,530
Where's Andy?

1255
01:13:19,850 --> 01:13:23,290
Yeah, I guess he's putting some extra
pressure on that volcano for the curtain

1256
01:13:23,290 --> 01:13:24,290
calls.

1257
01:13:24,330 --> 01:13:25,990
You know, I'm mighty proud of that boy.

1258
01:13:26,650 --> 01:13:30,510
He's a regular Thomas A. Edison. I could
swear that volcano had real flames.

1259
01:13:31,370 --> 01:13:34,670
But he doesn't sound like Andy at all.

1260
01:13:35,370 --> 01:13:37,970
Surely he could have waited for five
minutes after the performance.

1261
01:13:38,510 --> 01:13:42,350
Now, now, Mother, I don't see how you
can criticize such a demonstration of

1262
01:13:42,350 --> 01:13:45,750
modesty. Modesty and Andy? I've just
solved the mystery.

1263
01:13:46,210 --> 01:13:48,390
Andy came home and took off his costume
and makeup.

1264
01:13:48,610 --> 01:13:49,610
How do you know, Millie?

1265
01:13:49,890 --> 01:13:51,210
Just take a look at the bathroom.

1266
01:13:51,570 --> 01:13:53,690
And then he's gone to Polly Benedict's
party.

1267
01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:57,020
Well, why did he have to go to the party
in such a terrible hurry?

1268
01:13:57,300 --> 01:14:00,200
So he could be there to start taking
bows from the first guest.

1269
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,860
Now, now, Mother, you can stop worrying
and go on up to bed.

1270
01:14:04,260 --> 01:14:07,560
Oh, well, I'll just clear away the rest
of the dishes. No, no, don't mind. I

1271
01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:09,700
won't fool around with these sandwiches
a while longer.

1272
01:14:10,440 --> 01:14:12,320
James, you're certainly acting very
funny tonight.

1273
01:14:12,940 --> 01:14:15,340
Unless you're trying not to show how
proud you are of Andy.

1274
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:16,940
Yeah, that's it.

1275
01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:19,280
Good night, Dad. Good night, honey. Good
night, dear.

1276
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:21,380
Good night. Don't forget to leave the
lights on for Andy.

1277
01:14:22,560 --> 01:14:23,560
No.

1278
01:14:24,950 --> 01:14:26,670
No, Judge Hardy, Andy isn't here.

1279
01:14:27,230 --> 01:14:29,910
And I deliberately invited him just
before the play tonight.

1280
01:14:30,810 --> 01:14:33,130
Even though he and I haven't been
friends lately.

1281
01:14:34,910 --> 01:14:37,130
Yes. Yes, I will, Judge Hardy.

1282
01:14:38,390 --> 01:14:39,390
Goodbye.

1283
01:14:50,930 --> 01:14:51,930
Hello?

1284
01:14:52,930 --> 01:14:53,950
Yes, Judge Hardy.

1285
01:14:55,430 --> 01:14:56,570
He isn't home yet.

1286
01:14:57,590 --> 01:14:59,230
Then he did go to Polly's party.

1287
01:15:00,970 --> 01:15:01,970
Oh, he isn't.

1288
01:15:03,570 --> 01:15:07,530
Judge Hardy, tonight after the play was
over, there wasn't any chance to speak

1289
01:15:07,530 --> 01:15:08,429
to you alone.

1290
01:15:08,430 --> 01:15:12,190
You see, last night... Yes, Andrew told
me about last night.

1291
01:15:12,910 --> 01:15:17,810
And when I met your young Mr. Franklin
tonight, I knew that something must have

1292
01:15:17,810 --> 01:15:19,690
happened to make Andrew ashamed to face
me.

1293
01:15:20,110 --> 01:15:23,990
I can imagine what Andy thinks, because
he disappeared before I could explain.

1294
01:15:24,730 --> 01:15:28,390
Well, my hands are tied, Miss Meredith.

1295
01:15:29,410 --> 01:15:35,290
I wouldn't dare intrude on Andrew at a
time like this, but if you could...

1296
01:15:35,290 --> 01:15:41,230
Where were you and Andrew last night
when he asked you to marry him?

1297
01:15:42,450 --> 01:15:43,790
Were you in the garden?

1298
01:15:45,590 --> 01:15:49,690
Would you mind looking out and see if
there's anybody there now?

1299
01:15:50,470 --> 01:15:51,470
I'll look.

1300
01:16:04,810 --> 01:16:06,130
There is someone in the garden.

1301
01:16:06,950 --> 01:16:09,910
Well, I'm sure you know what to do.

1302
01:16:10,450 --> 01:16:11,450
Yes, I do.

1303
01:16:11,690 --> 01:16:12,710
Good night, Judge Harry.

1304
01:16:19,550 --> 01:16:22,510
Let along now, dearest. I've got
something I must attend to.

1305
01:16:22,850 --> 01:16:24,310
And I love you very much.

1306
01:16:24,970 --> 01:16:25,970
Good night, my dear.

1307
01:16:26,230 --> 01:16:27,230
Good night.

1308
01:16:42,510 --> 01:16:43,510
May I sit down?

1309
01:16:43,950 --> 01:16:45,210
Sure. Sit down.

1310
01:16:48,790 --> 01:16:51,070
Well, show's over.

1311
01:16:51,950 --> 01:16:52,950
Guess you're glad.

1312
01:16:53,470 --> 01:16:54,990
I know how you feel, Andy.

1313
01:16:56,370 --> 01:16:57,370
Who is he?

1314
01:16:57,690 --> 01:16:58,690
Bill Franklin.

1315
01:16:59,170 --> 01:17:01,830
He was a professor at State Teachers
College when I went there.

1316
01:17:02,230 --> 01:17:04,270
He was part of the story I said I would
tell you.

1317
01:17:04,750 --> 01:17:07,690
We fell in love last spring, but that
night I cried.

1318
01:17:08,130 --> 01:17:10,410
He decided he didn't have enough money
to marry me.

1319
01:17:10,890 --> 01:17:14,030
He came after me tonight because he just
wanted an endowment to do research and

1320
01:17:14,030 --> 01:17:15,410
travel. I'd have earned enough.

1321
01:17:16,330 --> 01:17:17,330
Of course.

1322
01:17:17,390 --> 01:17:20,830
He let you cry by yourself at night.
Yes, but he was miserable, too.

1323
01:17:21,110 --> 01:17:22,390
I'd have never hurt you like that.

1324
01:17:23,070 --> 01:17:25,110
Andy, you've no right to do this to me.

1325
01:17:25,390 --> 01:17:26,390
Do what?

1326
01:17:26,590 --> 01:17:28,270
I'm just as unhappy as you are.

1327
01:17:29,250 --> 01:17:30,250
Listen, Andy.

1328
01:17:30,750 --> 01:17:34,550
Tonight, for these few moments, let's
meet just this once on an equal basis.

1329
01:17:34,750 --> 01:17:37,410
Yeah, and then what? And then I'll talk
to you as if you were a man.

1330
01:17:37,870 --> 01:17:39,930
A boy couldn't understand, but a man
can.

1331
01:17:41,330 --> 01:17:43,750
Andy, tomorrow you'll be going one way
and I'll be going another.

1332
01:17:44,770 --> 01:17:47,570
Let's seize these few moments and hold
them tightly in our hands.

1333
01:17:47,950 --> 01:17:48,950
And then let them go.

1334
01:17:49,810 --> 01:17:52,750
Perhaps they'll leave some stardust on
our fingers that we can never rub off.

1335
01:17:54,070 --> 01:17:57,210
That's what hurts, Rose. That's what
hurts when you talk to me like that.

1336
01:17:58,430 --> 01:18:00,470
No one will ever talk to me like you do
again.

1337
01:18:01,090 --> 01:18:02,810
No one's voice will ever be like yours.

1338
01:18:03,530 --> 01:18:06,610
As long as I live, who will ever speak
to me again of stardust?

1339
01:18:07,410 --> 01:18:10,130
It hurts.

1340
01:18:10,900 --> 01:18:12,360
Yes, that's like a man, too.

1341
01:18:12,960 --> 01:18:14,660
Oh, you're laughing at me.

1342
01:18:15,180 --> 01:18:19,620
Talking about me being a man and all the
time inside thinking of me only as a

1343
01:18:19,620 --> 01:18:20,780
kid. No, Andy.

1344
01:18:21,500 --> 01:18:24,360
Because at this moment you're
experiencing an emotion that a boy

1345
01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:25,360
understand.

1346
01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:29,140
Oh, a boy's not supposed to feel it when
his heart breaks into pieces, huh?

1347
01:18:29,780 --> 01:18:35,240
A boy feels it just as keenly as a man,
but beyond that a man is privileged to

1348
01:18:35,240 --> 01:18:39,100
face the storms of life that are to
temper his metal and make him truly a

1349
01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:43,980
I can see why this has all been like
sort of a dream.

1350
01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:49,020
I don't deserve a swell girl like you
yet.

1351
01:18:50,100 --> 01:18:52,940
I've got a lot of things to do before I
raid a woman like you.

1352
01:18:53,340 --> 01:18:55,540
You're seeing me through rose -colored
glasses, Andy.

1353
01:18:56,700 --> 01:19:00,840
Why, when I look at myself and then back
at you and all the glory of your 17

1354
01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:06,360
years, I feel old and humble before all
the mysterious, wonderful things that

1355
01:19:06,360 --> 01:19:07,360
are going to happen to you.

1356
01:19:08,140 --> 01:19:10,000
You know, it's funny.

1357
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:11,560
What's funny, Andy?

1358
01:19:11,740 --> 01:19:15,280
I know, just as sure as I'm standing
here tonight that you're just telling me

1359
01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:16,860
these things, so as I'll be like that.

1360
01:19:18,480 --> 01:19:19,480
That's working.

1361
01:19:19,980 --> 01:19:23,120
Why, Andy, in a couple of years, I'll be
that funny little country school

1362
01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:25,480
teacher who once gave you a few weeks of
high school dramatics.

1363
01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,100
There'll be a dozen other girls who've
come into your life.

1364
01:19:29,060 --> 01:19:30,860
Twelve different girls in two years?

1365
01:19:31,340 --> 01:19:33,100
It's inevitable when a man's attractive.

1366
01:19:34,820 --> 01:19:38,260
Do you think that I'm going to be an
attractive man, Rose?

1367
01:19:38,780 --> 01:19:40,260
No girl could ever forget you.

1368
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:48,220
Of course, I... I wouldn't deliberately
set out to break a woman's heart.

1369
01:19:48,540 --> 01:19:49,680
Well, you know the old saying.

1370
01:19:50,480 --> 01:19:54,080
Love is to a man a thing apart, but a
woman's whole existence.

1371
01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:55,800
Yeah, that's right.

1372
01:19:56,260 --> 01:19:58,500
But I got a lot of other things to think
about beside love.

1373
01:19:58,820 --> 01:20:02,380
I've got to practice the law and study
up to be a judge like my father. I want

1374
01:20:02,380 --> 01:20:04,120
to be in the United States Supreme Court
someday.

1375
01:20:04,420 --> 01:20:07,540
And I think you'll make it. They're
stealing your backbone, Andy.

1376
01:20:07,980 --> 01:20:09,560
There'll be plenty of women in your
life, too.

1377
01:20:10,500 --> 01:20:11,500
Sure.

1378
01:20:11,680 --> 01:20:13,320
There are a lot of beautiful women in
Washington.

1379
01:20:14,020 --> 01:20:17,380
Foreigners, you know, spies, lobbyists.
And you'll be able to cope with them.

1380
01:20:17,660 --> 01:20:20,600
Of course, I can't say that I'm going to
thoroughly approve of your Franklin

1381
01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:21,600
guy.

1382
01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:26,040
There ain't... aren't. Oh, if that isn't
a fool kid trick of mine saying eight

1383
01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:27,400
all the time. Gotta cut that out.

1384
01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:32,720
Anyway, what I mean is that, Rose, you
have no hard feelings toward me, huh?

1385
01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:33,960
Oh, no, Andy.

1386
01:20:34,020 --> 01:20:37,260
I always knew we could never be anything
but a milestone in each other's lives.

1387
01:20:37,740 --> 01:20:39,500
Yeah. Yeah, that's right, a milestone.

1388
01:20:40,420 --> 01:20:41,900
Gee, I'm going to remember you always.

1389
01:20:42,100 --> 01:20:45,460
At least until I get into college. Then
I think a man would be a fool to promise

1390
01:20:45,460 --> 01:20:48,100
anything in the face of 2 ,000 coeds.
Fair enough.

1391
01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:49,840
And now I think I'll go in.

1392
01:20:50,140 --> 01:20:52,860
It's been a pretty exciting evening for
me, and I'm a little tired.

1393
01:20:53,440 --> 01:20:56,680
Sure. You're bound to get tired easier
when you approach middle age.

1394
01:20:57,600 --> 01:21:04,020
Well, you know, I'm going to keep this
with me all my life.

1395
01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:07,180
When it gets old and withered, it'll
remind me of you.

1396
01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:15,300
Well, it was really a pleasure to have
met you, Rose.

1397
01:21:16,120 --> 01:21:17,740
It's been a privilege to know you, Andy.

1398
01:21:18,300 --> 01:21:19,300
Good night.

1399
01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:22,419
Good night.

1400
01:21:22,420 --> 01:21:23,420
Goodbye.

1401
01:21:45,870 --> 01:21:48,130
Come on, Hardy, you've got a milestone
in your pocket.

1402
01:21:58,630 --> 01:21:59,630
Andy!

1403
01:22:00,190 --> 01:22:01,190
Andy!

1404
01:22:02,170 --> 01:22:09,090
Thank you. I hope you

1405
01:22:09,090 --> 01:22:11,810
children are enjoying your games. Gee,
Andy, it was a swell show.

1406
01:22:12,190 --> 01:22:13,330
Andy, you were marvelous.

1407
01:22:13,710 --> 01:22:14,970
It was nothing, nothing at all.

1408
01:22:15,370 --> 01:22:16,950
That volcano was really terrific.

1409
01:22:17,350 --> 01:22:20,730
Yes, I thought Beezy handled that very
effectively. I adored the moon.

1410
01:22:21,070 --> 01:22:24,570
Young Higginbottom was responsible for
that. Very promising youngster, too.

1411
01:22:25,430 --> 01:22:27,090
Oh, there's Andy. Excuse me.

1412
01:22:27,310 --> 01:22:28,310
Andy!

1413
01:22:29,250 --> 01:22:30,250
Andy.

1414
01:22:31,310 --> 01:22:32,610
I'm glad you came, Andy.

1415
01:22:32,990 --> 01:22:35,850
Your father telephoned. Would you like
to use the library phone?

1416
01:22:36,230 --> 01:22:37,510
Yes, perhaps I'd better.

1417
01:22:38,170 --> 01:22:39,770
It's a charming little affair, Polly.

1418
01:22:40,390 --> 01:22:41,390
Pardon me, please.

1419
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:49,240
Oh, well, young stick and plaster.

1420
01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:52,240
I ruined your moon, didn't I?

1421
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:55,340
Oh, forget it. You gave us the biggest
laugh we got.

1422
01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:58,000
Say, I'm going to use that moon business
again in my next play.

1423
01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:00,860
Here, what's the matter with your eyes?

1424
01:23:01,820 --> 01:23:03,460
I've been bawling.

1425
01:23:03,960 --> 01:23:06,500
Listen, nothing's worth crying about, my
boy.

1426
01:23:06,900 --> 01:23:09,740
Well, you've got to take things like
tonight with a piece of steel in your

1427
01:23:09,740 --> 01:23:10,740
backbone.

1428
01:23:11,460 --> 01:23:15,680
Listen, anything that bothers you, you
come right to me and I'll straighten you

1429
01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:16,830
out. Man to man.

1430
01:23:18,310 --> 01:23:19,310
Oh, gee.

1431
01:23:20,430 --> 01:23:21,450
Think nothing of it, son.

1432
01:23:25,670 --> 01:23:26,670
Hello, Andrew.

1433
01:23:27,970 --> 01:23:32,190
Oh, I only called up to congratulate you
on your play.

1434
01:23:32,690 --> 01:23:35,290
Well, I certainly do appreciate your
thoughtfulness.

1435
01:23:36,050 --> 01:23:38,010
But I don't want you to be up so late.

1436
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:43,160
Well, look, I'm going to be out quite
late myself, Dad. So, look, you get to

1437
01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:46,240
and try to get some sleep because you've
been looking pretty rocky these past

1438
01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:47,179
few days.

1439
01:23:47,180 --> 01:23:48,180
Me?

1440
01:23:49,220 --> 01:23:53,220
Well, I was... Say, Dad, maybe you need
some sulfur and molasses.

1441
01:23:56,100 --> 01:23:57,720
Goodbye. Good night.

1442
01:24:01,100 --> 01:24:05,180
Well, a drift in Tahiti is now a thing
of the past.

1443
01:24:05,780 --> 01:24:07,400
And I must say, I'm not sorry.

1444
01:24:08,350 --> 01:24:11,910
However, it's too bad we won't have Miss
Meredith with us next year.

1445
01:24:12,490 --> 01:24:14,370
Did you meet Mr. Franklin, her fiancé?

1446
01:24:15,030 --> 01:24:17,050
I don't know what she sees in him.

1447
01:24:17,590 --> 01:24:18,750
You wouldn't, Polly.

1448
01:24:19,130 --> 01:24:20,790
What do you mean, I wouldn't?

1449
01:24:21,090 --> 01:24:23,870
Well, when you get a little older,
you'll understand those things.

1450
01:24:24,790 --> 01:24:27,730
When you experience some storms of life.

1451
01:24:28,970 --> 01:24:33,380
When you've passed a milestone or two.
Listen, Andrew Hardy, you're not talking

1452
01:24:33,380 --> 01:24:37,440
to poor little Tahula now. You're
talking to Polly Benedict, and Polly

1453
01:24:37,440 --> 01:24:38,760
doesn't jump into volcanoes.

1454
01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:43,860
Well, Rear Admiral, now are you through
with women?
