1
00:01:00,620 --> 00:01:01,620
Thank you.

2
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,020
I'll send him back.

3
00:01:03,900 --> 00:01:04,900
Goodbye, Lieutenant.

4
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,680
Well, Bob, that was the police
lieutenant from your precinct in New

5
00:01:12,020 --> 00:01:15,680
Now, won't you tell me why you ran away
from home?

6
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,280
My old man makes me go to school.

7
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:19,760
Look at me.

8
00:01:20,220 --> 00:01:22,420
I'm only in the eighth grade with a lot
of midgets.

9
00:01:22,980 --> 00:01:26,060
What's a six -foot lug like me doing
with spelling and geography?

10
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:32,000
I know of a man that was six feet tall
at your age that split rails to earn a

11
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,000
meager education.

12
00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:36,220
His name was Lincoln.

13
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,960
I was taught Lincoln never had no
education.

14
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,480
That's why he was a right guy, getting
to be president the hard way.

15
00:01:43,740 --> 00:01:47,120
Well, he worked days and studied nights.

16
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,400
That's all different now.

17
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,380
Our public school system is unique.

18
00:01:53,290 --> 00:01:57,770
We ask our children today to accept
something free that money can't buy in

19
00:01:57,770 --> 00:01:58,770
other country in the world.

20
00:01:59,430 --> 00:02:00,429
Lincoln, huh?

21
00:02:00,430 --> 00:02:01,630
More than six feet, huh?

22
00:02:02,490 --> 00:02:05,370
I bet you he wasn't as skinny as me.

23
00:02:06,790 --> 00:02:07,890
He was skinnier.

24
00:02:10,330 --> 00:02:12,650
Bob, you could spit a few rails, too.

25
00:02:13,850 --> 00:02:16,710
Suppose I get you into a New York
vocational school.

26
00:02:17,410 --> 00:02:21,550
Learn to be a carpenter. With a little
geography and spelling on the side.

27
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,440
I bet you they didn't give Lincoln no
raspberries on account of being skinny.

28
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,500
I promise you they gave him plenty of
raspberries.

29
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:30,920
Bobby, sir.

30
00:02:31,620 --> 00:02:34,960
Take this young man to a restaurant and
fill him with a good hot lunch.

31
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,500
Mr. George Benedict of the Carville
National Bank is in your chambers. Would

32
00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:39,500
like to see him.

33
00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:43,000
Caught a recess for lunch.

34
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:46,440
I'll talk to you later, Bob.

35
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:51,660
I've got a boy of my own.

36
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,960
He's going to graduate from high school
next week.

37
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,700
So they're razzed Lincoln for being
skinny, too, huh?

38
00:02:58,640 --> 00:02:59,640
That's right.

39
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,400
Hello, George.

40
00:03:05,700 --> 00:03:06,700
What's the trouble?

41
00:03:06,740 --> 00:03:07,740
This check.

42
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,480
It's a bad check for $280.

43
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,500
Swear out a warrant for the culprit's
arrest and we'll all take care of him.

44
00:03:15,780 --> 00:03:18,860
Yes, but this check is signed by your
son, Andrew.

45
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:21,720
Dad.

46
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:23,640
Yes, Dad.

47
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:24,760
I'm the culprit.

48
00:03:26,140 --> 00:03:27,140
Andrew.

49
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:29,660
A bad check?

50
00:03:30,100 --> 00:03:34,640
Well, Dad, there must have been a little
confusion in my bookkeeping. I hope.

51
00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:37,620
Well, $280 worth is a lot of confusion.

52
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,500
Where on earth do you ever get $280?

53
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,880
But, Dad, I haven't got $280. If I did,
the check would be good.

54
00:03:45,660 --> 00:03:46,319
Wouldn't it?

55
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:51,340
Well, what were you trying to do with
the $280 that you haven't got? The $280

56
00:03:51,340 --> 00:03:53,900
that I haven't got belongs to somebody
else.

57
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,820
Somebody somewhere is supposed to have
$280.

58
00:03:59,500 --> 00:04:01,100
Now, who's that somebody?

59
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,080
The high school graduating class.

60
00:04:03,460 --> 00:04:05,540
Oh, I see.

61
00:04:06,020 --> 00:04:07,480
You're the treasurer.

62
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,440
Oh, no, no, no, Dad.

63
00:04:09,820 --> 00:04:11,760
I'm the class president.

64
00:04:14,300 --> 00:04:16,920
My daughter Polly is the class
treasurer.

65
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,600
Dad, there's some things I can't discuss
here.

66
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,180
We'll go into that later.

67
00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:25,560
George, how much is this check short?

68
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,920
$14. Charge it to my account.

69
00:04:28,460 --> 00:04:33,480
I don't want my son to go to the
penitentiary till after he's graduated

70
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:34,480
high school.

71
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:38,360
Let me see this so -called bookkeeping
of yours.

72
00:04:38,700 --> 00:04:41,320
No, no, it's not here. It's over at the
editorial office in school.

73
00:04:43,140 --> 00:04:45,340
I'll see you later, George.

74
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Come on.

75
00:04:49,059 --> 00:04:53,040
We raised the money by assessing
ourselves. The senior class executive

76
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,500
voted for each student to pay $7 apiece
to cover the special expenses of

77
00:04:56,500 --> 00:04:57,500
graduation.

78
00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,800
$7 from each student? Uh -huh.

79
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:05,560
But, Andrew, what was it you didn't want
to discuss in front of Mr. Benedict?

80
00:05:05,860 --> 00:05:09,360
Well, Polly Benedict is the class
treasurer. And could I tell the head of

81
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,420
Carville National Bank that his own
daughter has no conception of finance?

82
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,580
But you have.

83
00:05:15,380 --> 00:05:17,100
Well, maybe I got the...

84
00:05:17,340 --> 00:05:20,920
Class finances mixed up with the
finances for the graduation yearbook.

85
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:21,920
chairman of that committee.

86
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:23,920
I see, I see.

87
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,960
Andy Hardy, if I give up my lunch hour,
the least you can do is be on the job to

88
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,800
okay the Greek gods and goddesses. I
don't care what kind of clothes the

89
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,940
Greeks used to wear. I ain't gonna
appear in public without any pants on.

90
00:05:34,940 --> 00:05:37,240
McMahon, I'll have you know that the
ancient Greeks didn't even know what

91
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,720
were. Yeah, well, maybe the ancient
Greeks were at knock need.

92
00:05:40,060 --> 00:05:42,320
All right, I'll be there in five minutes
and fix everything.

93
00:05:42,700 --> 00:05:46,620
Okay. Oh, how are you, Judge Hardy? Very
well, thank you, Busy. Come on, come

94
00:05:46,620 --> 00:05:47,620
on.

95
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,320
Just how are the ancient Greeks involved
in the high school graduation?

96
00:05:53,840 --> 00:05:57,640
Well, most graduations just have
ordinary class day exercises, but I'm

97
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,180
ours in the form of a Greek tragedy.

98
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,500
Oh, you're also chairman of the class
day exercises committee?

99
00:06:03,980 --> 00:06:07,500
Well, I'm only a member, but the
chairman has no initiative.

100
00:06:08,340 --> 00:06:10,320
Are you doing anything else?

101
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:15,040
Yeah, I'm kind of helping the
advertising committee get a few ads for

102
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,880
program. He pandered.

103
00:06:17,470 --> 00:06:20,310
Isn't anyone else graduating this year
except you?

104
00:06:20,570 --> 00:06:24,010
Look, Dad, I didn't ask for all these
jobs. I was drafted.

105
00:06:24,810 --> 00:06:26,170
Well, I can believe that.

106
00:06:26,810 --> 00:06:29,610
You've got so much energy, they know
you'll get things done.

107
00:06:29,870 --> 00:06:33,810
I want this just to be a magnificent
graduation.

108
00:06:34,110 --> 00:06:36,730
Don't you realize that graduating from
high school is more important than

109
00:06:36,730 --> 00:06:37,750
graduating from college?

110
00:06:38,650 --> 00:06:44,190
Like, it's the first sign of approaching
manhood. Didn't you feel that way when

111
00:06:44,190 --> 00:06:45,230
you were a boy, Dad? Yes.

112
00:06:45,820 --> 00:06:48,640
Yes, it's the most significant milestone
in life.

113
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,020
And everybody will be there to watch us,
and they'll remember how important they

114
00:06:52,020 --> 00:06:53,020
felt when they were 18.

115
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,920
Well, we want to do ourselves proud.

116
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,580
You're wearing yourself out.

117
00:06:59,260 --> 00:07:01,520
You certainly can't be doing much
studying.

118
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,780
Studying? Oh, Dad, you know I don't have
any trouble with exams.

119
00:07:06,860 --> 00:07:10,180
Oh, excuse me, Judge Hardy. Andy, the
girls have decided to wear white dresses

120
00:07:10,180 --> 00:07:11,119
for graduation.

121
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,660
Now, they're not to cost more than $15.
Must have sleeves, no gloves, and no

122
00:07:14,660 --> 00:07:17,420
jewelry, and lipstick allowed within
reason. Oh, that's swell, Polly.

123
00:07:17,460 --> 00:07:20,460
Conservative, but with individuality.
Oh, I knew you'd like it. I'll see you

124
00:07:20,460 --> 00:07:22,080
later. Bye, Judge Hardy.

125
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,780
Isn't it just thrilling to graduate?

126
00:07:24,580 --> 00:07:25,860
See here, Andy.

127
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,960
Don't tell me you're also chairman of
the girls' dresses.

128
00:07:30,780 --> 00:07:31,780
No, sir.

129
00:07:31,980 --> 00:07:34,740
But... Well, the committee for what the
boys are going to wear have got to know

130
00:07:34,740 --> 00:07:37,060
what the girls decide, so we'll make a
harmonious picture.

131
00:07:37,660 --> 00:07:39,840
Well, let's get over to the bank.

132
00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:44,820
Your books indicate that this $280 check
should have been good.

133
00:07:45,060 --> 00:07:47,840
That's easy to explain. The bank made a
mistake like they always do.

134
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,120
Well, the bank didn't make a mistake.

135
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,620
So in the future, before you draw any
money out, just make sure that the

136
00:07:58,620 --> 00:07:59,920
you deposited are good.

137
00:08:00,140 --> 00:08:03,340
Yeah, if a girl of my own class gives me
her father's check for her and her

138
00:08:03,340 --> 00:08:05,880
brother, I've got to believe it's good,
don't I? Unless you want me to have a

139
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,040
suspicious nature.

140
00:08:07,300 --> 00:08:08,420
Girl and her brother, eh?

141
00:08:09,060 --> 00:08:10,580
What did you say their name is?

142
00:08:11,300 --> 00:08:12,760
Catherine and Harry Land.

143
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:14,720
Land? Yeah.

144
00:08:16,500 --> 00:08:17,500
Land, eh?

145
00:08:18,420 --> 00:08:20,820
I don't believe I've ever heard you
speak of them.

146
00:08:21,370 --> 00:08:24,290
Well, they don't go around with our
crowd very much. What do you mean? They

147
00:08:24,290 --> 00:08:26,530
don't belong to your social set? That's
right.

148
00:08:26,830 --> 00:08:28,650
What are you, Andrew, a snob?

149
00:08:29,130 --> 00:08:31,790
I know I sound pretty awful, don't I,
Dad?

150
00:08:32,070 --> 00:08:34,890
Well, Catherine and Harry, they're all
right, but they don't go around with our

151
00:08:34,890 --> 00:08:38,150
class very much. They don't go to any of
our parties, for instance.

152
00:08:38,450 --> 00:08:40,330
Well, perhaps because they've never been
invited.

153
00:08:40,990 --> 00:08:45,270
Have you ever invited one of the little
shindigs at our house? No, I guess not.

154
00:08:46,290 --> 00:08:47,950
You know, they're poor.

155
00:08:48,650 --> 00:08:51,500
What's... I didn't invite them just
because they're poor.

156
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:57,040
I mean, but, well, they don't act like
they want to be invited anyplace.

157
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:58,820
Oh, I begin to understand.

158
00:08:59,980 --> 00:09:02,360
Who is this father of this Steven Land?

159
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,600
What does he do?

160
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,960
I found out when my car broke down. I
took it into Peter Dugan's. I found out

161
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,840
that he was sort of a night watchman and
a car washer at Dugan's garage.

162
00:09:12,540 --> 00:09:14,520
Where do they live, you know?

163
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:15,720
Mm -hmm.

164
00:09:15,940 --> 00:09:16,940
Drive us there.

165
00:09:21,070 --> 00:09:24,850
Why don't you let me handle this thing
with the two kids, huh? Well, possibly

166
00:09:24,850 --> 00:09:28,470
the expenses of all this graduation is
something the Land family can't afford.

167
00:09:29,250 --> 00:09:31,770
We wouldn't like to have anything like
that in our country.

168
00:09:34,630 --> 00:09:35,630
Oh, Dad.

169
00:09:36,210 --> 00:09:42,190
Not today, not in this car. Because it's
not in too good a shape. The gas is

170
00:09:42,190 --> 00:09:48,110
down and, well, one of my tires is down.
I have been listening to that pot

171
00:09:48,110 --> 00:09:50,630
-rending story about this car. for
years.

172
00:09:51,170 --> 00:09:54,790
But it seems to me that you always
manage to get where you want to go.

173
00:09:55,910 --> 00:09:58,090
You drive us the land home.

174
00:10:04,050 --> 00:10:04,850
Just a

175
00:10:04,850 --> 00:10:11,970
minute,

176
00:10:12,090 --> 00:10:13,090
Andy.

177
00:10:13,390 --> 00:10:17,890
Have these land children been given any
prominence in your graduation plans?

178
00:10:18,510 --> 00:10:21,290
Well, Dad, I don't see Catherine and
Harry very much at school. She's taking

179
00:10:21,290 --> 00:10:24,530
commercial course, you know, typing,
shorthand, bookkeeping.

180
00:10:24,730 --> 00:10:25,009
Well, that's fine.

181
00:10:25,010 --> 00:10:27,270
She's just the person to help you with
your bookkeeping.

182
00:10:27,610 --> 00:10:31,690
And as for Harry Land, you see that he
gets a nice part in your graduation

183
00:10:31,690 --> 00:10:35,470
activities. Oh, Dad, I've got a swell
job for Harry. You leave it to me. I'm

184
00:10:35,470 --> 00:10:36,530
going to fix Harry up good.

185
00:10:36,750 --> 00:10:39,990
All right, Andrew, I'll leave it to you
because I'm going to check up on you.

186
00:10:47,790 --> 00:10:48,790
Who's that singing?

187
00:10:49,050 --> 00:10:51,030
That's Catherine. She's always singing.

188
00:10:53,290 --> 00:10:54,750
That's a lovely voice.

189
00:10:55,110 --> 00:10:58,730
Her voice is all right, but does she
have to sing grand opera instead of

190
00:10:59,030 --> 00:11:03,590
Well, maybe she prefers grand opera
instead of music.

191
00:11:12,030 --> 00:11:14,010
Oh. Oh, hello, Andrew.

192
00:11:14,290 --> 00:11:15,290
Hello.

193
00:11:15,660 --> 00:11:18,360
Well, Catherine, this is my dad, Miss
Land.

194
00:11:18,680 --> 00:11:20,060
My dad. How do you do?

195
00:11:20,300 --> 00:11:21,300
How do you do?

196
00:11:21,340 --> 00:11:23,200
May we come in? Oh, please do, Judge
Hardy.

197
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:25,780
It's Judge Hardy, Harry.

198
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:27,360
My brother, Harry.

199
00:11:27,580 --> 00:11:28,580
How do you do, Judge Hardy?

200
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,140
You know Andrew Hardy, of course.

201
00:11:31,420 --> 00:11:32,740
Yeah, I know Andrew Hardy.

202
00:11:33,260 --> 00:11:35,640
I'm helping Catherine with the lunch
dishes, and no cracks, please.

203
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,940
Oh, I help my mom with our dishes, too.

204
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:39,480
Very frequently.

205
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,120
As a punishment.

206
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,600
Is your father about?

207
00:11:44,220 --> 00:11:46,340
I think so. I think he's outside.

208
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,780
He's in the backyard. Shall I call him?
No, no, no. I'll go outside to him.

209
00:11:53,620 --> 00:11:55,560
Son will do me good. Dad, I'll go with
you.

210
00:11:56,680 --> 00:11:59,800
Andrew, I thought you had something to
say to Catherine and Harry about some

211
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,920
work they had to do for the graduation,
didn't you?

212
00:12:02,300 --> 00:12:04,000
Oh, yes. I forgot.

213
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:08,040
Well,

214
00:12:08,700 --> 00:12:11,040
Andrew, this is a great honor.

215
00:12:15,939 --> 00:12:17,720
Catherine, I want to... What did you
come here for, Hardy?

216
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,620
Oh, me? Oh, I just came with my father.
Snooping on the Lamb family home?

217
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,720
Yes, Andrew. Are you snooping?

218
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,620
Look, I'd appreciate it if you'd
consider me as president of the

219
00:12:27,620 --> 00:12:29,660
class instead of a human being. Ha, ha.

220
00:12:34,140 --> 00:12:35,840
Harry's a little envious of you, Andrew.

221
00:12:36,560 --> 00:12:40,960
But if there's anything we can do for
commencement, well, graduating is just

222
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,700
big a thing to us as it is to you, and
even more so.

223
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,980
I guess you know what I mean. Oh,
Catherine, I've got an awful lot of work

224
00:12:49,980 --> 00:12:52,560
do, and I'm pretty bad at bookkeeping.
Well, you've studied up to be a

225
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:55,300
stenographer in bookkeeping and
everything like that. Sure, Kath. Help

226
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,380
and he'll give you a swell title.

227
00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:00,980
Chairman of the committee that does all
of Andrew Hardy's work, and he gets all

228
00:13:00,980 --> 00:13:01,980
the credit.

229
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:04,940
Oh, Harry's only teasing you, Andrew.

230
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,160
Suppose I acted as your secretary.

231
00:13:08,980 --> 00:13:11,500
Hmm? Oh, I'd be grateful for the chance.

232
00:13:12,780 --> 00:13:13,780
My secretary?

233
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,380
My own private secretary. Oh, boy,
that'd be great. Sure, it'd be great.

234
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,520
In the meantime, what am I supposed to
do for dear old Carmel High?

235
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,940
Oh, Harry, I've got one of the most
important jobs of graduation for you. In

236
00:13:24,940 --> 00:13:25,940
fact, it's spectacular.

237
00:13:26,340 --> 00:13:28,640
I'm going to appoint you chairman of the
committee for decorating the

238
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,260
auditorium. I might have known.

239
00:13:30,700 --> 00:13:33,480
You can't get anybody else to take that
on because it's the meanest job in the

240
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:34,480
whole setup.

241
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,400
There'll be an appropriation of about
$4, and the chairman is responsible for

242
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:39,860
decorating that big, ugly barn.

243
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,000
I'm going to fool you.

244
00:13:42,340 --> 00:13:43,340
I'm going to do it.

245
00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:48,000
You know, Andrew, if it weren't for you,
I'd be a lot more important around

246
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,700
Carvel High. I'm not going to kid
myself.

247
00:13:50,420 --> 00:13:53,560
This graduation will be the last high
spot I'll have before I go to work.

248
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,500
I want my name on it somewhere.

249
00:13:56,180 --> 00:13:58,300
I'm awfully sorry you feel that way
toward me, Harry.

250
00:13:58,680 --> 00:14:00,100
I'm sorry I feel that way, too.

251
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,360
But sometimes you folks on the other
side of town give me a pain in the neck.

252
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,660
You know, Harry's very conservative
today, Andrew.

253
00:14:10,380 --> 00:14:11,960
Consider it a tribute to your charm.

254
00:14:12,420 --> 00:14:13,420
Oh, thanks.

255
00:14:13,660 --> 00:14:16,900
And I've been afraid that if you two
ever got together, he'd beat you over

256
00:14:16,900 --> 00:14:17,900
head with a blunt instrument.

257
00:14:18,420 --> 00:14:21,180
Well, I'm going to have another cup of
coffee. Want one?

258
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:22,879
Yes, sure.

259
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,400
It'll be all right. Oh, sure it'll be
all right. I wouldn't poison you in my

260
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,660
house. My father might not like it.

261
00:14:32,540 --> 00:14:33,540
Yes, Judge.

262
00:14:33,700 --> 00:14:37,480
If you'd come to Paris a couple of years
ago, that folder would have been an

263
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,420
open sesame to an intelligent travel
service.

264
00:14:40,060 --> 00:14:44,240
Even to a place in Constantinople where
they had real American waffles and maple

265
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,580
syrup. American tourist agency.

266
00:14:46,860 --> 00:14:49,840
Stephen Land, proprietor, all languages
spoken.

267
00:14:50,620 --> 00:14:53,860
Then the Americans stopped wanting
waffles in Constantinople?

268
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:55,500
Americans stopped.

269
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:00,200
I could see what was going to happen, so
I fled with Catherine and Harry.

270
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,800
I saved a little money, and this place
belongs to my foster uncle.

271
00:15:04,660 --> 00:15:07,180
But from what happened to that check of
mine...

272
00:15:07,980 --> 00:15:13,320
A man with your qualifications willing
to wash cars in a... My qualifications?

273
00:15:14,460 --> 00:15:16,060
On parle toutes les langues.

274
00:15:16,300 --> 00:15:19,160
I speak nine languages, including the
Portuguese.

275
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:21,160
Portuguese?

276
00:15:21,740 --> 00:15:24,760
You make Portuguese sounds, though it's
very important.

277
00:15:25,060 --> 00:15:27,860
Why, you try getting along without it in
Portugal or Brazil.

278
00:15:29,180 --> 00:15:30,300
I'll be all right, Judge.

279
00:15:30,860 --> 00:15:32,540
The children graduate in a week.

280
00:15:33,140 --> 00:15:36,000
I was determined to give them that. It
means a lot to children.

281
00:15:36,699 --> 00:15:40,940
They're a fine pair. The best. They
can't wait to get out on their own and

282
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:41,879
things easier.

283
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,600
I've taken care of that check of yours.

284
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,040
That is letting such times things get a
little easier for you.

285
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:50,940
Thank you for adding that.

286
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,200
You mind if I use your telephone?

287
00:15:53,580 --> 00:15:54,640
Sorry, we haven't one.

288
00:15:55,060 --> 00:15:56,059
Hi, Dad.

289
00:15:56,060 --> 00:15:57,640
It's time for school. We're leaving.

290
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:59,380
And then I'll drop you off.

291
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:03,300
Now, you come along with me, will you,
Mr. Land? I'm anxious to get to a

292
00:16:03,300 --> 00:16:06,400
telephone because I've got an idea that
I think might interest you.

293
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,220
Well, Johnny Hardy, when I watched those
three youngsters of ours walk into that

294
00:16:18,220 --> 00:16:21,860
fine, big, free high school together, I
realized what was wrong with the United

295
00:16:21,860 --> 00:16:22,860
States of America.

296
00:16:23,780 --> 00:16:24,780
What?

297
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:26,160
Absolutely nothing.

298
00:16:36,770 --> 00:16:40,350
Well, I guess we better stop and put up
the top.

299
00:16:40,950 --> 00:16:41,970
Listen to me, Tom.

300
00:16:42,430 --> 00:16:44,650
I wonder what Andrew does in the rain.

301
00:16:47,370 --> 00:16:48,730
Something like this, I guess.

302
00:17:14,220 --> 00:17:15,900
Seemed to have blown out a tire.

303
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:17,280
Sure.

304
00:17:17,540 --> 00:17:19,319
Tires always blow when it rains.

305
00:17:20,819 --> 00:17:26,760
Bet that tire's been okay for 50 ,000
miles, just waiting for me in a

306
00:17:27,859 --> 00:17:30,600
Well, I'm the garage man around here.

307
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,120
So guess I'll have a go at fixing it.

308
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,900
Well, let's try it once more.

309
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,520
One, two, three.

310
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,660
Now we're pulled a clear off for that.

311
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:52,460
Believe it or not, my son takes those
wheels off 20 times a day.

312
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,080
Well, we can't get wetter than we are.

313
00:17:55,540 --> 00:17:56,760
Let's go in on the rim.

314
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,460
have to bother about that tire anymore.

315
00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:43,860
Well, I couldn't get any wetter.

316
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,380
I'll hike for help.

317
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:13,150
Thank you, Mr. Dugan, for the costume.

318
00:19:14,830 --> 00:19:17,150
I'd like to use your phone, if you don't
mind.

319
00:19:17,390 --> 00:19:18,329
Sure, Judge.

320
00:19:18,330 --> 00:19:19,950
I'll get you a report on Andrew's car.

321
00:19:23,210 --> 00:19:26,310
Now, I guess I look pretty silly.

322
00:19:27,370 --> 00:19:29,350
You do, but we don't want you to catch
cold.

323
00:19:30,390 --> 00:19:33,830
Maybe I can do something more than just
appreciate your kindness.

324
00:19:36,630 --> 00:19:37,630
Hello, operator.

325
00:19:38,410 --> 00:19:39,950
This is Judge Hardy talking.

326
00:19:40,750 --> 00:19:45,110
I want to speak to Mr. J .O. Harper in
the State Department at Washington, D

327
00:19:45,750 --> 00:19:47,950
I'll just charge you to my phone. Thank
you.

328
00:19:48,950 --> 00:19:52,490
What other qualifications have you that
might be saleable?

329
00:19:52,830 --> 00:19:56,790
Well, I paint a little and know
something about music. My daughter

330
00:19:56,790 --> 00:19:59,230
know, and that's about all. Nothing very
practical.

331
00:20:01,530 --> 00:20:03,050
Hello, Mr. Harper.

332
00:20:03,650 --> 00:20:04,830
This is Judge Hardy.

333
00:20:05,650 --> 00:20:06,650
How are you?

334
00:20:07,790 --> 00:20:13,170
Now, in connection with our activities
in South America, could you use a man

335
00:20:13,170 --> 00:20:19,250
spent the last ten years in Europe,
speaks nine languages, including

336
00:20:20,590 --> 00:20:21,590
I see.

337
00:20:21,690 --> 00:20:25,850
Very well. You write me a letter with
all information about Mr. Land, and I'll

338
00:20:25,850 --> 00:20:26,850
do my best.

339
00:20:27,090 --> 00:20:28,490
Goodbye, sir. Yeah.

340
00:20:29,170 --> 00:20:33,490
Well, he says your Portuguese will be
valuable because of Brazil. Well, I'm

341
00:20:33,490 --> 00:20:34,490
overwhelmed.

342
00:20:35,030 --> 00:20:36,110
Nothing's happened yet.

343
00:20:36,510 --> 00:20:39,250
And we'll send a letter to Washington
and convince the government that they

344
00:20:39,250 --> 00:20:41,330
cannot get along without you. I'll do it
right away.

345
00:20:41,610 --> 00:20:42,950
I've got to get back to my courtroom.

346
00:20:43,330 --> 00:20:44,330
But dressed like that?

347
00:20:45,050 --> 00:20:48,850
Well, maybe I had better stop at the
house and change.

348
00:20:51,590 --> 00:20:52,810
Hello, high school?

349
00:20:53,290 --> 00:20:56,850
I want to speak to Andrew Harder. You'll
find him in the editorial room.

350
00:20:58,310 --> 00:20:59,630
Hello? Andrew?

351
00:21:00,659 --> 00:21:05,100
It stopped raining. I want you to go
home, get the sedan, and pick me up at

352
00:21:05,100 --> 00:21:06,100
Peter Dugan's place.

353
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:12,160
Well, I had a little trouble with that
automobile of yours.

354
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,040
Well, Dad, if you did any damage to that
car, you're going to have to pay for

355
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,700
it. The car was in absolute perfect
condition when I turned it over to you.

356
00:21:22,900 --> 00:21:25,280
Oh, that's better.

357
00:21:25,700 --> 00:21:26,700
Bye.

358
00:21:29,870 --> 00:21:31,730
I've got to pick up my dad. Where was I
there?

359
00:21:32,190 --> 00:21:34,350
Young Orestes is talking to Cleo.

360
00:21:35,190 --> 00:21:36,350
Orestes with feeling.

361
00:21:36,830 --> 00:21:40,570
Cleo, it's not that I... Young Orestes
with feeling.

362
00:21:42,230 --> 00:21:46,810
Cleo, it's not that I... No, no, don't
take this down now because I want to see

363
00:21:46,810 --> 00:21:47,810
how it sounds first.

364
00:21:48,930 --> 00:21:51,570
It's not that I have suddenly become
aware of your charms.

365
00:21:53,150 --> 00:21:54,430
No, my dear girl.

366
00:21:55,770 --> 00:21:57,830
I'll always remember that first stolen
kiss.

367
00:21:58,270 --> 00:22:02,800
That one... Wonderful moment as we
walked through the woods.

368
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,120
Ah, another kiss, my love.

369
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:07,320
Catherine Land!

370
00:22:08,380 --> 00:22:11,660
Andrew Hardy, if you're going to make
love to girls in the school building,

371
00:22:11,700 --> 00:22:15,260
kindly lower your voice so as not to set
a bad example to the younger students.

372
00:22:15,360 --> 00:22:18,460
I wasn't making love to Catherine. Why,
that's the last thing in the world I

373
00:22:18,460 --> 00:22:21,300
think of doing is making love to
Catherine. Oh, thank you.

374
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,400
Oh, I didn't mean that that way. Oh, you
didn't, didn't you?

375
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,080
Catherine is my private secretary.

376
00:22:29,050 --> 00:22:30,050
Private secretary?

377
00:22:30,330 --> 00:22:34,150
Oh, well, that's a new one, isn't it?
Don't worry about Andrew and me, Polly.

378
00:22:34,350 --> 00:22:35,510
He's not my type.

379
00:22:36,890 --> 00:22:41,010
Oh, that's a fine thing to say about the
president of the senior class.

380
00:22:41,350 --> 00:22:42,350
Say, what is this?

381
00:22:43,290 --> 00:22:46,190
Have you been taking Catherine for walks
through the woods?

382
00:22:46,530 --> 00:22:49,750
Well, that was only dialogue for our
Greek tragedy. I was dictating it to

383
00:22:49,750 --> 00:22:52,830
Catherine. She was taking it down in
shorthand. Well, she wasn't taking

384
00:22:52,830 --> 00:22:56,450
in shorthand when I came in. I told her
not to take it down until I heard how it

385
00:22:56,450 --> 00:22:59,060
sounded. Well, it sounded pretty funny
to me.

386
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:02,760
Mr. President, my committee is having a
fight.

387
00:23:03,360 --> 00:23:06,420
Evelyn Thompson says that all the girls
should wear the same shade of silk

388
00:23:06,420 --> 00:23:09,460
stockings with their graduation dresses,
but I think that's just silly.

389
00:23:10,060 --> 00:23:11,620
However, somebody has to decide.

390
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,360
All shades of silk stockings look pretty
good to me.

391
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:15,880
Andrew Hardy!

392
00:23:17,620 --> 00:23:19,780
I didn't mean that.

393
00:23:20,660 --> 00:23:23,320
What do you think about the stocking
situation, Catherine?

394
00:23:24,120 --> 00:23:26,640
Well, for my part, I'm not wearing any
stockings.

395
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,700
But you're right, Polly, it is silly.

396
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,580
Well, that's what I meant to say, Polly.

397
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,360
Well, I'll tell the committee you
decided.

398
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:40,420
Private secretary, huh?

399
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,880
Next thing you'll be telling me you have
to work nights.

400
00:23:48,300 --> 00:23:49,300
Where was I?

401
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,020
You were about to pick up your father.

402
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,480
Oh, gosh, I gotta run. I got so many
things to do yet.

403
00:23:54,860 --> 00:23:58,040
Well, I'll straighten out the bank
accounts and type what you dictated and

404
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,560
the yearbook proofs. Oh, with you
around, Catherine, I feel 20 years

405
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:02,760
I'll see you tomorrow.

406
00:24:04,900 --> 00:24:05,900
Take a letter.

407
00:24:07,500 --> 00:24:08,500
Senior class.

408
00:24:09,180 --> 00:24:14,320
The committee for the graduation
costumes, masculine, has decided that

409
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,600
shall wear blue coats with white flannel
pants.

410
00:24:17,460 --> 00:24:18,840
Signed, Andrew Hardy, chairman.

411
00:24:19,180 --> 00:24:20,180
Oh, goodbye.

412
00:24:23,669 --> 00:24:27,470
Perhaps some of the boys might not have
white flannels. Well, let them buy them.

413
00:24:27,510 --> 00:24:29,310
It won't cost them more than about five
or six bucks.

414
00:24:29,850 --> 00:24:33,450
I don't think my brother would want to
ask his father for five or six bucks.

415
00:24:35,830 --> 00:24:38,250
I'm sorry, Catherine.

416
00:24:39,530 --> 00:24:43,390
I guess I forgot that some people are
kind of having it tough.

417
00:24:44,290 --> 00:24:45,650
Tough? Us?

418
00:24:46,430 --> 00:24:47,430
Certainly not.

419
00:24:47,690 --> 00:24:48,790
We think we're lucky.

420
00:24:49,550 --> 00:24:52,770
My father's kept us going so Harry and I
could graduate from high school.

421
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:54,320
And we're terribly grateful.

422
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,440
Gee, you talk as if graduating was the
end of everything.

423
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,600
Yes, the end of one world and the
beginning of a new one.

424
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,500
Especially now that we're back in
America.

425
00:25:04,780 --> 00:25:05,880
Different than Europe, huh?

426
00:25:06,620 --> 00:25:09,980
Different. You don't know how lucky you
are living here all your life.

427
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,120
You know, Harry and I feel that now
we're going to be somebody.

428
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:16,040
Do you know what I'm going to do after
graduation?

429
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:18,640
Work your way through college?

430
00:25:19,140 --> 00:25:20,140
College.

431
00:25:20,990 --> 00:25:22,710
Harry and I never dared dream of
college.

432
00:25:23,470 --> 00:25:25,330
Now, I'm going to the city and get a
job.

433
00:25:25,550 --> 00:25:28,970
You mean that you're going to take the
burden of supporting you off of your

434
00:25:28,970 --> 00:25:31,510
father? More than that, we're going to
start paying him back.

435
00:25:33,230 --> 00:25:34,610
Paying your own father back?

436
00:25:34,950 --> 00:25:38,310
Naturally, we want to repay him for what
he spent, as well as the care and

437
00:25:38,310 --> 00:25:39,890
inspiration he's always given us.

438
00:25:43,210 --> 00:25:47,110
You know, you're kind of a new kind of
girl to me.

439
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,400
Maybe I could... Maybe I could fix it so
Harry could get his new white flannel

440
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:55,400
pants, huh?

441
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,880
That's very sweet of you, Andrew, but I
don't think Harry would accept things

442
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,280
from you of all people.

443
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,460
Well, maybe you could figure a way out
so he wouldn't know.

444
00:26:05,340 --> 00:26:09,620
Gee, I... I think you could figure out
almost anything.

445
00:26:11,260 --> 00:26:12,260
That's a bet.

446
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,600
I'm not too proud to want my brother
happy.

447
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:16,600
Thanks.

448
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:17,860
You're swell, Andrew.

449
00:26:21,860 --> 00:26:23,000
Your father's waiting.

450
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:24,840
Yeah.

451
00:26:32,180 --> 00:26:34,680
You! You bigamist, you!

452
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:42,580
Here I am, Dad.

453
00:26:44,340 --> 00:26:45,900
That is you, isn't it, Dad?

454
00:26:46,740 --> 00:26:48,200
Well, of course it's me.

455
00:26:48,980 --> 00:26:50,780
Aren't you a little early for Halloween?

456
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,860
My clothes got drenched.

457
00:26:55,300 --> 00:26:57,120
You look awfully foolish, Slim.

458
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,840
Well, you better take a look at
yourself.

459
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:07,000
Making jokes, huh?

460
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,240
No wonder Polly Benedict called me a
bigamist.

461
00:27:15,620 --> 00:27:16,620
Bigamist?

462
00:27:17,710 --> 00:27:19,710
Isn't that Polly's lipstick?

463
00:27:20,310 --> 00:27:23,770
I'd rather not explain. I'm as innocent
as a newborn babe, but I don't expect

464
00:27:23,770 --> 00:27:24,810
anybody to believe me.

465
00:27:26,410 --> 00:27:27,570
Judge, about this car.

466
00:27:27,830 --> 00:27:29,030
Would you step this way, please?

467
00:27:29,370 --> 00:27:30,550
Oh, yeah, yeah.

468
00:27:40,990 --> 00:27:41,990
Oh.

469
00:27:42,370 --> 00:27:44,090
Judge, this jalopy isn't safe.

470
00:27:44,450 --> 00:27:45,450
Isn't safe.

471
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,300
Dad, what did you do to my perfectly
good car?

472
00:27:50,460 --> 00:27:52,980
Well, nothing much. It just wouldn't
steer.

473
00:27:53,300 --> 00:27:54,300
Wouldn't steer.

474
00:27:54,700 --> 00:27:58,040
Oh, it can be made to run, but it'll be
a public menace. That isn't true.

475
00:27:58,540 --> 00:28:00,380
Dad, you just don't know how to handle
that car.

476
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,140
It has to be nursed along.

477
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,320
Well, I wouldn't let my son risk his
life in it. Mr. Dugan, please.

478
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,360
Well, I've always had my suspicions of
this car.

479
00:28:09,500 --> 00:28:11,480
No, son, you better let it go.

480
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,040
I can't.

481
00:28:13,260 --> 00:28:16,020
Going without a car is like going
without knives and forks. It's like

482
00:28:16,020 --> 00:28:17,020
meat with your fingers.

483
00:28:19,780 --> 00:28:24,700
Mr. Dugan, how much is this car worth in
the second -hand market?

484
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,800
About two dollars to the junk man.

485
00:28:27,580 --> 00:28:28,720
To the junk man?

486
00:28:28,940 --> 00:28:31,120
Why, that motor's hardly broken in yet.

487
00:28:31,540 --> 00:28:33,020
Well, Judge, it's your problem.

488
00:28:38,460 --> 00:28:42,080
Dad, you wouldn't want your son to
graduate from high school on foot, would

489
00:28:43,690 --> 00:28:44,790
I'm sorry, Emmett.

490
00:28:45,330 --> 00:28:47,590
You're rather precious to your mother
and me.

491
00:28:48,470 --> 00:28:51,310
No, Son, you'll have to get rid of this.

492
00:28:56,670 --> 00:28:59,930
For years I've been hearing about the
advantages of being 18.

493
00:29:00,570 --> 00:29:02,990
Now I might as well be living in the
dark ages.

494
00:29:07,350 --> 00:29:10,150
I remember one thing I did promise you,
Andrew.

495
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,600
I said when you graduated from high
school, I'd buy you an automobile.

496
00:29:17,100 --> 00:29:18,620
Oh, boy, oh, boy.

497
00:29:18,980 --> 00:29:21,060
So let's see what Mr. Dugan can
recommend.

498
00:29:21,500 --> 00:29:24,400
My dad, if all the people you ever sent
to jail only knew what a sympathetic

499
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,600
soul you really have.

500
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,820
Well, what do you say to this one? Dad,
now I know why Mom married you.

501
00:29:33,300 --> 00:29:35,620
Open the big doors, Mr. Dugan. I'm going
to drive it out right away.

502
00:29:36,540 --> 00:29:39,640
Not this one. This is promised. But I'll
have your car here for you, say,

503
00:29:39,700 --> 00:29:42,940
Saturday of next week. Will it be
exactly like this one? Unless you'd

504
00:29:42,940 --> 00:29:43,940
have red leather seats.

505
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:45,360
Red leather seats.

506
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,660
Oh, my gosh. All my life I've been
waking up in the middle of the night

507
00:29:48,660 --> 00:29:51,220
about a car with red leather seats. I'll
send a wire to the factory.

508
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,280
Dad, suppose the factory burns down
before they get my car finished.

509
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,240
I wouldn't worry about that.

510
00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:02,420
Oh, I'm not worried about it. My father
buying me a new car, my private

511
00:30:02,420 --> 00:30:05,040
secretary doing all my work for me. Oh,
I'm sitting pretty.

512
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:16,600
As we begin this final ordeal of your
high school careers, I'm privileged to

513
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:17,940
make an important announcement.

514
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,740
The governor of this state, John F.
Spalding, who once attended this high

515
00:30:22,740 --> 00:30:28,980
school, last night authorized me to
announce an annual award to that

516
00:30:28,980 --> 00:30:33,860
student who represents the highest
standards of scholarship and

517
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,880
A prize of $25 in cash.

518
00:30:38,620 --> 00:30:43,200
and the winner's name to be inscribed on
a perpetual trophy which will hang in

519
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,680
the high school auditorium.

520
00:30:44,940 --> 00:30:46,800
Good luck, all of you.

521
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,540
Miss Forrest, you may proceed with the
bad news.

522
00:31:28,670 --> 00:31:29,670
Harry, come here a minute.

523
00:31:30,990 --> 00:31:35,690
A message came in a while ago. You're to
go to Judge Hardy's courtroom as soon

524
00:31:35,690 --> 00:31:36,289
as you finish.

525
00:31:36,290 --> 00:31:37,290
Your father's there.

526
00:31:37,510 --> 00:31:38,409
Is anything wrong?

527
00:31:38,410 --> 00:31:39,990
I don't think so, but I'd hurry.

528
00:31:40,770 --> 00:31:41,770
Yes, ma 'am.

529
00:32:26,220 --> 00:32:27,260
Oh, where's Harry?

530
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,400
Still nothing done about fixing up this
dump. If your brother's going to be

531
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,900
chairman for the decorating of the
auditorium committee, you ought to start

532
00:32:33,900 --> 00:32:35,060
decorate the auditorium.

533
00:32:36,300 --> 00:32:38,600
What memorandums have I got for today,
huh?

534
00:32:38,820 --> 00:32:42,360
You were going to write a yearbook ad
for the Eagle Hand Laundry. Oh, yes, I

535
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:43,720
dashed something out during English
exam.

536
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:45,240
Here it is.

537
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,320
It's the Eagle Hand Laundry, 156 Park
Street.

538
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,600
Why kill your wife? Let us do your dirty
work.

539
00:32:58,730 --> 00:33:00,510
Why, is it that funny, Catherine?

540
00:33:01,130 --> 00:33:03,650
It's a better ad than a serious one.
It'll be talked about.

541
00:33:04,130 --> 00:33:05,069
What else?

542
00:33:05,070 --> 00:33:09,430
The plastic committee reports they can't
make a statue of the goddess of grief

543
00:33:09,430 --> 00:33:11,390
out of chicken wire and plaster of
Paris.

544
00:33:13,730 --> 00:33:17,510
Joe Costello's got some real marble
statues over at his place right across

545
00:33:17,510 --> 00:33:18,510
street from the cemetery.

546
00:33:18,630 --> 00:33:20,050
But wouldn't it cost a lot to move one
here?

547
00:33:20,610 --> 00:33:24,330
Cost? Tell Joe Costello to deliver it
free and we'll give him a free ad in the

548
00:33:24,330 --> 00:33:28,760
program. A lot of folks that'll be
reading the program will be dead next

549
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:29,760
and they'll need monuments.

550
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,160
Well, that's all the memos I have.

551
00:33:33,700 --> 00:33:34,700
Thanks, Catherine.

552
00:33:35,340 --> 00:33:36,340
Thanks a lot.

553
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:37,700
Let me thank you.

554
00:33:38,460 --> 00:33:41,980
Graduation meant a lot to me before, but
now you've let me have a real part in

555
00:33:41,980 --> 00:33:42,980
it.

556
00:33:43,100 --> 00:33:48,660
Well, uh... Did you think that the
English exam was tough?

557
00:33:49,100 --> 00:33:50,480
No more than we had a right to expect.

558
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,920
It's fine time for a chairman to show
up. I resign.

559
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:56,720
Resign? What?

560
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,640
Oh, no, Harry. Catherine, things are
happening. Dad's going to South America

561
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:00,439
work for the government.

562
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,620
South America? Judge Hardy just got a
letter. He arranged it. Dad's got to

563
00:34:03,620 --> 00:34:06,280
for Washington Thursday, then to South
America, and we go with him. Well, of

564
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:07,660
course we go with him. It's marvelous.

565
00:34:08,100 --> 00:34:09,440
It's marvelous, isn't it, Andrew?

566
00:34:10,340 --> 00:34:11,340
Yeah, sure, sure.

567
00:34:12,739 --> 00:34:15,440
Just think, we owe it all to your
father.

568
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,440
Oh, but you can't leave Thursday.

569
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:18,920
Well, why not?

570
00:34:19,260 --> 00:34:20,260
Well...

571
00:34:27,310 --> 00:34:31,070
Yes, I see. Yeah, and we were supposed
to graduate Friday night.

572
00:34:32,250 --> 00:34:34,310
Well, I guess we don't graduate.

573
00:34:34,830 --> 00:34:35,949
You don't graduate?

574
00:34:36,790 --> 00:34:38,170
That'd be simply awful.

575
00:34:38,469 --> 00:34:40,090
State Department orders leave Thursday.

576
00:34:40,810 --> 00:34:43,650
I'll admit it's quite a shock not being
here for commencement.

577
00:34:44,310 --> 00:34:47,750
But what's a silly graduation compared
to Dad's getting a wonderful opportunity

578
00:34:47,750 --> 00:34:48,750
like this?

579
00:34:49,190 --> 00:34:50,949
So there's nothing more to be said.

580
00:34:51,469 --> 00:34:55,449
We leave Thursday and love it. That's
absolutely true, Andrew. While we're due

581
00:34:55,449 --> 00:34:56,750
at the courthouse, Dad's there. Come on.

582
00:34:59,340 --> 00:35:01,860
Harry, I'll send you your diplomas in
South America if you pass.

583
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:02,979
If we pass?

584
00:35:02,980 --> 00:35:06,220
Listen, you can also send me that $25
prize money and a photograph of the

585
00:35:06,220 --> 00:35:09,340
Governor's Trophy with my name on it.
Sure, if you win it. I'm going to win

586
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,940
Harry, I honestly hope you do win it
because I know how much it means to you

587
00:35:12,940 --> 00:35:13,940
being here for graduation.

588
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:17,300
You know, you two are putting on a swell
act and you might be able to fool an

589
00:35:17,300 --> 00:35:20,960
adult, but I'm only as old as you are
and I can see right through you.

590
00:35:22,060 --> 00:35:24,500
Well, I have to put on a better act and
fool everybody.

591
00:35:25,210 --> 00:35:27,610
And thanks for what you said about me
winning the governor's prize, Andy.

592
00:35:27,610 --> 00:35:30,150
all right. It was darn nice of you to
say so, even though you really don't

593
00:35:30,150 --> 00:35:34,010
me to win it. Oh, there's nobody else
I'd rather see win the prize than you

594
00:35:34,010 --> 00:35:34,749
to me.

595
00:35:34,750 --> 00:35:36,490
Oh, the prize doesn't matter.

596
00:35:37,010 --> 00:35:40,950
The important thing is to make Dad
realize how proud and happy we are for

597
00:35:41,570 --> 00:35:43,150
So give us a big grin, mister.

598
00:35:43,510 --> 00:35:44,510
And a big grin yourself.

599
00:35:45,530 --> 00:35:46,710
Beat this one down.

600
00:35:48,930 --> 00:35:50,330
South America, here we come.

601
00:35:55,660 --> 00:35:56,660
Can I kiss you?

602
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,980
Tell me all about it. Can't we leave for
South America right this very minute?

603
00:36:01,240 --> 00:36:02,240
Well, well.

604
00:36:02,780 --> 00:36:06,280
Got that Washington telegram ready? It
is. Read it out. I'll make a clean copy.

605
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:08,980
All right. Here we go.

606
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:11,160
J .O. Harper.

607
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:12,640
State Department.

608
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:14,720
Washington, D .C.

609
00:36:16,540 --> 00:36:18,560
Mailing passport applications tonight.

610
00:36:19,300 --> 00:36:23,560
For self, daughter Catherine, son Harry.

611
00:36:26,340 --> 00:36:27,620
Thursday. Please confirm.

612
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:29,600
Stephen V. Land.

613
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:32,640
Here we are.

614
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:39,860
What kind of language is that to use to
a man of my age?

615
00:36:40,820 --> 00:36:44,460
Dad said his Portuguese clenched the
deal and so I said you in Portuguese.

616
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,980
God bless you for the rest of your life,
Judge Hardy.

617
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,800
Thank you, my dear.

618
00:36:52,980 --> 00:36:54,780
Where are those passport applications?

619
00:36:55,340 --> 00:36:56,340
Yeah.

620
00:36:56,380 --> 00:36:58,600
Each of you, fill out one of these.

621
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,780
Here, Harry, you hurry over to the
telegraph office for this wire.

622
00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:07,500
Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I'll take it.
I've got a lot of things to do with you

623
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:08,319
two going away.

624
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,160
Andy, I'll work like a dog in that
auditorium. Right up the last minute.

625
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,900
you'll have your private secretary on
the job until train time Thursday.

626
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,440
Yeah, sure, you'll help until I really
get busy. I know sooner get an efficient

627
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,460
organization built up and the United
States foreign policy knocks it for a

628
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:24,600
Send the wire.

629
00:37:47,020 --> 00:37:49,920
That looks like the total of your new
job, Barnes.

630
00:37:50,220 --> 00:37:51,660
You find Mr. Dugan a good boss.

631
00:37:52,190 --> 00:37:56,130
Well, with me, a bad boss is a good boss
as long as every Saturday's payday.

632
00:37:56,350 --> 00:37:59,950
And remember, there's a funny thing
about jobs. Once you actually get a job,

633
00:37:59,950 --> 00:38:01,770
seems easier to get a better one. Look
at me.

634
00:38:02,130 --> 00:38:04,050
I'm looking at you, and you're terrific.

635
00:38:04,710 --> 00:38:07,630
I'll be ready to leave in a minute.
Hello, Andrew. How are you, sir? Andy

636
00:38:07,630 --> 00:38:10,870
got a mess of work cleaned up since
dinner. Come on, Daddy, let's go home

637
00:38:10,870 --> 00:38:11,870
start packing.

638
00:38:11,910 --> 00:38:15,690
Will that graduation dress go good on a
boat you wait? Sure, we can't hold up

639
00:38:15,690 --> 00:38:17,590
the Monroe Doctrine if you haven't got
an evening dress.

640
00:38:18,110 --> 00:38:20,270
And did you send up that telegram all
right? Oh, yeah, sure.

641
00:38:21,150 --> 00:38:24,710
You got an answer all right, didn't you?
I mean, it said please confirm as to

642
00:38:24,710 --> 00:38:27,230
when you were leaving Carville, didn't
it? We can't expect an answer till

643
00:38:27,230 --> 00:38:30,830
tomorrow. Oh, here are the keys, Vaughn.
You lock up the showroom at nine o

644
00:38:30,830 --> 00:38:31,808
'clock. Right.

645
00:38:31,810 --> 00:38:33,350
Well, I gotta run.

646
00:38:33,730 --> 00:38:34,730
Thanks a lot. Goodbye.

647
00:38:34,910 --> 00:38:35,910
Wait a minute. We'll all go together.

648
00:38:36,110 --> 00:38:37,049
I can't.

649
00:38:37,050 --> 00:38:39,990
I've got a date with my mother. She
wants me to have a special graduation

650
00:38:39,990 --> 00:38:40,990
picture taken.

651
00:38:41,690 --> 00:38:42,690
Goodbye.

652
00:39:00,529 --> 00:39:04,730
It's the same cap and gown your father
wore, but you don't look the same.

653
00:39:08,410 --> 00:39:11,690
Mom, we're not going to graduate in caps
and gowns, you know. Well, I don't see

654
00:39:11,690 --> 00:39:14,490
why not. Your father did. Look what a
fine man he turned out to be.

655
00:39:14,970 --> 00:39:17,270
Maybe I ought to wear a black mustache,
too, huh?

656
00:39:17,870 --> 00:39:19,450
Well, you can when you go to college.

657
00:39:20,390 --> 00:39:22,390
Mom, they don't wear black mustaches
anymore.

658
00:39:23,050 --> 00:39:25,630
Well, I don't blame them. I made your
father cut his off.

659
00:39:29,770 --> 00:39:30,850
Go ahead, Mr. Pizzini.

660
00:39:31,070 --> 00:39:33,310
Go and hold still and watch for the
little birdie.

661
00:39:33,670 --> 00:39:34,790
This is 1941.

662
00:39:35,770 --> 00:39:37,250
You don't have to hold still.

663
00:39:37,730 --> 00:39:41,230
And there isn't any little birdie. There
never was when I was a girl, either.

664
00:39:42,590 --> 00:39:43,870
Now, Andrew.

665
00:39:45,910 --> 00:39:49,890
Andy, couldn't you have more of a
twinkle in your eye like your father?

666
00:39:51,410 --> 00:39:52,430
More of a twinkle, huh?

667
00:39:58,540 --> 00:40:00,080
Is that what you want, Mrs. Hardy?

668
00:40:01,020 --> 00:40:02,060
Not exactly.

669
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,220
But these things always turn out
different from what you think, don't

670
00:40:06,900 --> 00:40:10,020
Just relax and be natural.

671
00:40:13,180 --> 00:40:14,180
That's it.

672
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:17,040
Well, let's go, Mom. I've got something
I want to say to you. I'll go over the

673
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,480
proof tomorrow. Goodbye, Mr. Bissini.
Goodbye.

674
00:40:20,100 --> 00:40:23,820
Oh, Mom, look, you run ahead. I want to
leave this here with Mr. Bissini.

675
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,960
Mr. Bassini, look, don't show anybody
those proofs, will you please? I mean,

676
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,740
make up the final proof, the picture for
my mother, but then take the negative

677
00:40:32,740 --> 00:40:34,460
and tear it up into little pieces, huh?
I will.

678
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:40,500
My mother once had my picture taken in
long blonde curls and velvet pants.

679
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:41,980
Oh, my gosh.

680
00:40:42,380 --> 00:40:45,020
Well, thanks a lot. Bye -bye. That's
all. Goodbye.

681
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,160
What was it you wanted to ask me?

682
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:53,180
Well, it's something I can't talk to Dad
about.

683
00:40:54,190 --> 00:40:56,090
Well, I'm very flattered, dear, and
proud.

684
00:40:56,330 --> 00:40:59,730
Yeah, well, Mom, I want to buy somebody
a present.

685
00:41:00,290 --> 00:41:02,350
Oh, a graduation present for Polly
Benedict?

686
00:41:02,690 --> 00:41:05,250
No, no, this is for Catherine Land.

687
00:41:06,070 --> 00:41:07,070
Catherine Land?

688
00:41:07,190 --> 00:41:08,189
Yeah.

689
00:41:08,190 --> 00:41:09,670
Oh, yes, Land.

690
00:41:09,970 --> 00:41:12,370
Those nice people your dad was talking
about at dinner.

691
00:41:12,630 --> 00:41:13,630
Yeah.

692
00:41:13,810 --> 00:41:16,610
Catherine's been my private secretary.
She's been helping me with a little

693
00:41:16,630 --> 00:41:19,570
and the other day the girls were
discussing what kind of silk stockings

694
00:41:19,570 --> 00:41:22,090
were going to wear for commencement, and
Catherine said she wasn't going to wear

695
00:41:22,090 --> 00:41:23,090
any.

696
00:41:23,690 --> 00:41:25,150
Oh, I think I understand.

697
00:41:25,650 --> 00:41:28,530
Yeah, well, it's because they're kind of
poor.

698
00:41:28,970 --> 00:41:32,150
But I wanted to get Catherine some silk
stockings, you know.

699
00:41:32,770 --> 00:41:36,130
Let me tell you something, Mom. Silk
stockings are very important to females.

700
00:41:36,590 --> 00:41:37,750
Oh, is that so?

701
00:41:38,330 --> 00:41:41,370
But I thought the Landshul room were
going to leave town before commencement.

702
00:41:41,750 --> 00:41:44,390
Well, don't you think she ought to have
a pair of silk stockings anyway, you

703
00:41:44,390 --> 00:41:45,390
know, for an emergency?

704
00:41:45,530 --> 00:41:47,270
Well, I don't think anything would make
her happier.

705
00:41:47,670 --> 00:41:49,250
And you're short of a little ready
money.

706
00:41:49,470 --> 00:41:51,130
No, no, no, no, no, no. I got the cash.

707
00:41:51,790 --> 00:41:54,850
Just that I feel sort of funny about
going into a store and asking for

708
00:41:54,950 --> 00:41:55,950
silk stockings.

709
00:41:56,830 --> 00:41:58,390
Andrew Hardy, you're blushing.

710
00:42:00,970 --> 00:42:07,070
Oh, I'm ashamed of you. My goodness,
this is 1941 with short skirts and

711
00:42:07,730 --> 00:42:10,790
And you were always saying that your
father and I are behind the times.

712
00:42:12,190 --> 00:42:14,350
You're just an old -fashioned little
boy, after all.

713
00:42:14,570 --> 00:42:18,470
Me, old -fashioned? Why, you never saw a
more modern person in your life.

714
00:42:18,730 --> 00:42:20,090
I don't even live in the present.

715
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:21,600
I belong to the future.

716
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:23,780
My goodness, I'm late meeting your
father.

717
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:25,780
I'll see you later. Oh, to your swell,
Mom.

718
00:42:26,380 --> 00:42:28,040
And this is 1941.

719
00:42:28,300 --> 00:42:31,500
A fellow can just walk right into a
store and say, let me see some ladies'

720
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:32,880
stockings and no monkey business.

721
00:42:41,780 --> 00:42:43,020
Something in ladies' lingerie?

722
00:42:43,580 --> 00:42:45,780
Uh, uh, this is 1941.

723
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:47,600
I beg your pardon?

724
00:42:58,040 --> 00:42:59,280
Something in ladies' hoes.

725
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,300
Don't you got any men clerks? Men
clerks?

726
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,540
Yeah, you know, men's sales girls.

727
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:08,720
Oh, I'm afraid not.

728
00:43:09,060 --> 00:43:10,400
But what can I show you?

729
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,880
A pair of suspenders.

730
00:43:15,540 --> 00:43:17,960
Suspenders? Oh, in the men's department
over there.

731
00:43:18,300 --> 00:43:19,300
Thanks, madam.

732
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,760
Something I can show you, sir? Oh, uh,
yes. I'd like to buy some girls'

733
00:43:25,940 --> 00:43:27,100
stockings for a girl.

734
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:28,600
I understand perfectly.

735
00:43:29,020 --> 00:43:32,760
Lots of gentlemen prefer me to wait on
them, especially in these private little

736
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:36,020
purchases. This is for my private
secretary.

737
00:43:36,340 --> 00:43:37,340
Yes, yes, of course.

738
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,920
What size, quality, and shade of
hosiery?

739
00:43:41,500 --> 00:43:47,380
Well, about a medium size, I guess, and
a nice shade so she could wear them for

740
00:43:47,380 --> 00:43:52,180
commencement. And of the best quality,
but not more than a dollar and a half,

741
00:43:52,240 --> 00:43:53,840
please. Right, sir. In a jiffy, sir.

742
00:44:13,810 --> 00:44:16,590
Andrew Hardy, what are you trying to do?
Oh, hello, Polly.

743
00:44:16,870 --> 00:44:17,870
Uh,

744
00:44:19,310 --> 00:44:22,650
no thanks. I don't think I'll buy the
tennis racket just now.

745
00:44:24,050 --> 00:44:25,350
Come on, let's go.

746
00:44:25,590 --> 00:44:28,690
But I have to buy some things from
Mother. That can wait. It's too nice a

747
00:44:28,690 --> 00:44:32,830
to waste indoors, Polly. Oh, it is a
lovely moonlight night out, but first

748
00:44:32,830 --> 00:44:35,970
me do my shopping. No, no, no, we've got
to hurry. Pretty soon the moon will go

749
00:44:35,970 --> 00:44:38,470
down in back of the factory chimney and,
well, it's...

750
00:44:38,750 --> 00:44:41,290
You know, I haven't seen very much of
you lately, and I'm just dying for one

751
00:44:41,290 --> 00:44:42,850
those long walks home through the woods.

752
00:44:43,130 --> 00:44:47,330
Oh, you're so sweet, Andy, but I just...
I love you very much, and there isn't a

753
00:44:47,330 --> 00:44:48,330
minute to lose.

754
00:44:48,350 --> 00:44:49,410
Oh, you darling.

755
00:44:49,970 --> 00:44:50,970
Oh,

756
00:44:54,970 --> 00:44:55,970
just a minute, sir.

757
00:44:56,150 --> 00:44:57,150
Your package, sir.

758
00:44:57,370 --> 00:44:58,430
That'll be a dollar and a half.

759
00:44:58,970 --> 00:45:02,750
If I had a private secretary as pretty
as you, young lady, I'd buy her silk

760
00:45:02,750 --> 00:45:04,830
stockings, too. There you are. Private
secretary?

761
00:45:05,490 --> 00:45:06,870
Silk stockings?

762
00:45:07,310 --> 00:45:10,470
Andrew Hardy. Well, it was only in
common gratitude. Catherine was very

763
00:45:10,470 --> 00:45:11,730
reasonable about working nights.

764
00:45:12,710 --> 00:45:13,710
Working nights?

765
00:45:14,650 --> 00:45:17,570
You... You... You murderer, you!

766
00:45:57,279 --> 00:45:59,400
You know, that graduation might have
made me famous.

767
00:45:59,720 --> 00:46:02,960
500 people would have looked up on that
platform and said, who's that good

768
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:04,680
-looking guy without any white pants?

769
00:46:04,900 --> 00:46:06,460
Stop reminding me of it, please.

770
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,080
I haven't exactly been deceived, you
know.

771
00:46:12,900 --> 00:46:16,660
Too bad you brats had to do years of
work and then miss the one great moment

772
00:46:16,660 --> 00:46:17,920
glory. Oh, we don't mind.

773
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,640
It would have been a very big moment,
but only a moment.

774
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,880
Besides, now I can be a lady of leisure
instead of a working girl.

775
00:46:24,900 --> 00:46:25,920
Someday I'm going to make it up to you.

776
00:46:33,290 --> 00:46:34,990
It's time to administer Dad's special
treatment.

777
00:46:35,450 --> 00:46:36,490
Forte di primavera.

778
00:50:07,210 --> 00:50:08,390
Come in. The door's open.

779
00:50:08,710 --> 00:50:10,410
Windows were made before the doors.

780
00:50:12,010 --> 00:50:13,010
Good evening, everybody.

781
00:50:13,750 --> 00:50:15,410
Oh, uh, Catherine.

782
00:50:15,610 --> 00:50:19,130
Speaking in purely a business way, of
course. You don't mind, Hardy. I'm not

783
00:50:19,130 --> 00:50:21,030
any mood to listen to the big class
president tonight.

784
00:50:22,090 --> 00:50:24,230
Harry likes to growl, Andrew. Yeah.

785
00:50:26,670 --> 00:50:33,490
Catherine, I, uh... I, uh... Catherine,
I brought you a

786
00:50:33,490 --> 00:50:34,690
present. A present?

787
00:50:34,910 --> 00:50:35,910
Open it up.

788
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:38,520
See what it is. It's what all the girls
are going to wear on Friday night.

789
00:50:41,460 --> 00:50:42,540
Clark. Hmm?

790
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:45,680
Because of what I said to you and Polly?

791
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:47,080
Mm -hmm.

792
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,560
Well, uh, my mom said it'd be all right.

793
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:52,220
Why, of course it'll be all right.

794
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:55,000
You know, you're a funny boy, Andrew.

795
00:50:55,420 --> 00:50:59,900
I didn't particularly like you once, but
now... No, no, no.

796
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:01,520
Don't kiss me.

797
00:51:01,780 --> 00:51:02,820
Please don't kiss me.

798
00:51:03,260 --> 00:51:05,500
No matter how much you like silk
stockings, please don't kiss me.

799
00:51:05,720 --> 00:51:08,940
You'd no sooner kiss me like a sister
than I'll bet you Polly Benedict would

800
00:51:08,940 --> 00:51:09,940
looking in through the window.

801
00:51:10,740 --> 00:51:13,320
I guess it's a little bit too late to
start being careful.

802
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:16,740
But every time Polly gets jealous of me,
she always likes me better than ever

803
00:51:16,740 --> 00:51:17,740
after she gets over it.

804
00:51:17,940 --> 00:51:20,760
Of course, I will admit this is the
furthest I've ever gone.

805
00:51:22,500 --> 00:51:23,500
I won't misunderstand.

806
00:51:23,980 --> 00:51:26,220
These are just a present from the boss
to his secretary.

807
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:31,720
And even if I won't be here for
commencement... Oh, there's the bell.

808
00:51:32,540 --> 00:51:33,540
answer it.

809
00:51:35,100 --> 00:51:36,100
Telegram, Miss Lambert.

810
00:51:36,660 --> 00:51:38,080
Dad, Harry, it's here.

811
00:51:38,300 --> 00:51:39,300
The telegram's here.

812
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,680
Oh, boy, open it up. Open it up and get
the good news.

813
00:51:45,420 --> 00:51:45,860
Under

814
00:51:45,860 --> 00:51:54,320
circumstances,

815
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,040
we must withdraw offer.

816
00:51:56,860 --> 00:51:58,040
Cancel all arrangements.

817
00:51:58,640 --> 00:51:59,640
J .O. Harper.

818
00:52:17,100 --> 00:52:18,780
Dad. Mm -hmm?

819
00:52:19,420 --> 00:52:24,220
I believe the first time we ever had a
man -to -man talk was in Catalina,

820
00:52:24,220 --> 00:52:25,420
it, when I needed five bucks?

821
00:52:26,100 --> 00:52:28,280
Yes, for that very unpleasant little
girl.

822
00:52:29,260 --> 00:52:33,480
Hard to believe that there was ever a
time when five bucks would solve all the

823
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:34,680
troubles I was ever in.

824
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:40,200
You'll find out that $5 worth of last
year's troubles are never as serious as

825
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:41,540
cents worth of today's.

826
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,160
At that rate, I'm 90 years old this
minute.

827
00:52:49,260 --> 00:52:50,260
is it this time?

828
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:54,800
Oh, well, Mr. Land got a telegram from
Washington.

829
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,260
Catherine's outside this minute.

830
00:52:58,500 --> 00:53:02,360
Huh? I mean, well, she doesn't know any
more about this yet than you do.

831
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:07,060
Well, if bringing Catherine in here will
make this mystery any more intelligent.

832
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:12,600
That's what I mean. Maybe she won't get
so mad in front of you, and maybe you

833
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,020
won't get so mad in front of her.

834
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:17,160
I don't know. Wait a minute, will you?

835
00:53:25,540 --> 00:53:27,160
Good evening, Judge Hardy.

836
00:53:27,420 --> 00:53:30,360
Has Andrew told you about that horrible
telegram?

837
00:53:30,900 --> 00:53:31,940
Horrible telegram?

838
00:53:32,540 --> 00:53:37,000
Well, that was the telegram that Mr.
Land got telling him to call the whole

839
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,400
South American trip off. Well, that's
impossible.

840
00:53:39,780 --> 00:53:40,558
Of course.

841
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:42,420
There's been some wretched mistake.

842
00:53:42,780 --> 00:53:46,580
No mistake. I jimmed the whole thing up.
And all I did was change one little

843
00:53:46,580 --> 00:53:50,460
word in the telegram to Mr. Harper. You
changed... Dad's wire?

844
00:53:50,830 --> 00:53:54,090
Yeah, sure. Mr. Harper didn't know the
graduation was on Friday, and so I

845
00:53:54,090 --> 00:53:56,510
changed the leaving date from Thursday
to Saturday.

846
00:53:56,790 --> 00:54:01,930
Oh, Andrew, you didn't. How dare you?
Well, I thought that Catherine and Harry

847
00:54:01,930 --> 00:54:03,350
wanted to be home for commencement.

848
00:54:03,950 --> 00:54:07,090
Gee, I didn't think that two days was
going to make any difference.

849
00:54:07,650 --> 00:54:11,250
After all, the State Department is still
going to be open, and South America is

850
00:54:11,250 --> 00:54:15,170
still going to be there on Saturday,
isn't it? But this is a trade commission

851
00:54:15,170 --> 00:54:16,910
sailing to South America in a group.

852
00:54:22,350 --> 00:54:26,250
Get me Mr. J .O. Harper of the State
Department in Washington, D .C., or his

853
00:54:26,250 --> 00:54:27,310
home, and hurry.

854
00:54:28,230 --> 00:54:33,010
I can't understand your sense of values,
jeopardizing anything as serious as

855
00:54:33,010 --> 00:54:34,010
this.

856
00:54:34,210 --> 00:54:36,930
Please, Judge Harney, it's a little my
fault.

857
00:54:37,470 --> 00:54:41,510
Perhaps I gave Andrew the impression
that our graduating was too important.

858
00:54:43,130 --> 00:54:47,290
Yes, that's it, Catherine, that's it.
That's it, Dad. I didn't know that two

859
00:54:47,290 --> 00:54:50,930
days was going to make such a difference
that it would... Yes?

860
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:58,660
Well, the instant you get in touch with
Mr. Harper, ask him to telephone Judge

861
00:54:58,660 --> 00:54:59,760
Hardy in Carville.

862
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:06,280
Mr. Harper's out of town. They don't
expect to hear from him until Thursday.

863
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:08,420
But we're supposed to leave on Thursday.

864
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:10,240
Gently, my dear, gently.

865
00:55:10,900 --> 00:55:15,900
I have a double responsibility because
it was my own son's mistake.

866
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:17,880
I'd better go home. Dad's waiting.

867
00:55:19,580 --> 00:55:21,380
Oh, Catherine, wait, wait, wait.

868
00:55:22,290 --> 00:55:25,710
Catherine, you don't have to tell your
dad and Harry that it was me that did

869
00:55:25,730 --> 00:55:26,448
do you?

870
00:55:26,450 --> 00:55:27,990
Because they'll only hate me.

871
00:55:28,310 --> 00:55:29,850
And everything's going to be all right.

872
00:55:30,970 --> 00:55:33,430
Absolutely everything's going to be all
right, isn't it, Dad?

873
00:55:34,130 --> 00:55:37,310
Catherine, explain to your father
there's been a misunderstanding. But if

874
00:55:37,310 --> 00:55:39,330
humanly possible, I'll clarify things.

875
00:55:40,290 --> 00:55:42,310
Thank you. Thank you, Judge Hardy. Good
night.

876
00:55:46,570 --> 00:55:48,370
Wait a minute, will you? Good night,
Andrew.

877
00:55:48,570 --> 00:55:50,190
No, no, no, don't say it like that.

878
00:55:50,510 --> 00:55:54,030
I was only trying to help, and if it had
worked out, everybody would have said I

879
00:55:54,030 --> 00:55:54,888
was a hero.

880
00:55:54,890 --> 00:55:55,890
Sure they would.

881
00:55:56,190 --> 00:56:00,450
Well, you know, I wouldn't do anything
to hurt you or Harry or your father.

882
00:56:01,270 --> 00:56:04,410
Honest, you're the swellest girl I ever
met in my life.

883
00:56:05,010 --> 00:56:08,510
You're so swell that I never even once
thought about trying to kiss you, and

884
00:56:08,510 --> 00:56:10,470
that's the first time it ever happened
to me in my life.

885
00:56:11,250 --> 00:56:13,310
That's why it was all right for me to
take the stockings.

886
00:56:14,290 --> 00:56:15,750
Good night. We'll hope for the best.

887
00:56:35,240 --> 00:56:36,980
There's no sense in scolding you now.

888
00:56:37,820 --> 00:56:43,200
But no matter how this works out, when
it's over, I'll have a great deal to say

889
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:44,200
to you.

890
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,220
Come on, we're going to be late for
class day rehearsal. Wait a minute, wait

891
00:56:54,220 --> 00:56:55,320
minute. How's your father feeling?

892
00:56:55,660 --> 00:56:58,680
Well, he's holding on tight with both
hands, hoping your father will be able

893
00:56:58,680 --> 00:56:59,940
locate Mr. Harper by tomorrow.

894
00:57:00,340 --> 00:57:03,780
Hmm. Uh, Harry doesn't know that I
was...

895
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:07,000
remotely connected with a telegram, does
he? He has no suspicion.

896
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:10,440
Yeah, that's good, because I'd look
awful funny playing Apollo, the god of

897
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,380
and manly beauty with a couple of black
eyes.

898
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:14,540
Come on, let's go to work on the Greeks.

899
00:57:14,900 --> 00:57:15,900
All ready, everybody?

900
00:57:16,300 --> 00:57:17,300
All ready!

901
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,260
Act two, scene seven. Let's go.

902
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:21,960
Light!

903
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:23,440
Curtain!

904
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:32,280
Alas, there is no loveliness in life.

905
00:57:33,420 --> 00:57:34,780
Ah, woe is me.

906
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,980
Ah, Cassandra.

907
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,800
If thou were free, wouldst thou spurn my
love?

908
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:50,680
I am but thy mother's slave.

909
00:57:51,060 --> 00:57:52,760
Tis death we are found together.

910
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:56,220
Death? I would defend thee to my last
gasp.

911
00:57:58,360 --> 00:57:59,360
Mother!

912
00:58:19,050 --> 00:58:21,190
Olympus in time to stop them from
stabbing Polly.

913
00:58:21,470 --> 00:58:25,530
Bebe, take it again, and this time
you'll stop your caves and then bring

914
00:58:25,530 --> 00:58:27,010
Apollo as fast as you can.

915
00:58:27,290 --> 00:58:29,250
Go ahead and try it again. Claribel,
your last line.

916
00:58:30,130 --> 00:58:31,390
There is the wanton.

917
00:58:31,850 --> 00:58:33,810
Slaves, you all do your duty.

918
00:58:34,590 --> 00:58:36,070
Stop your caddis!

919
00:58:40,250 --> 00:58:43,470
Apollo! Apollo, the god of youth and
manly beauty!

920
00:58:44,710 --> 00:58:48,390
Who art thou, and what wouldst thou do
to this fair maiden of Athens?

921
00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:54,420
And this fair maid... Oh, wait a minute,
Basie.

922
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:59,560
Clarabelle, when Apollo comes down on a
cloud, why, you've got to be scared. I'm

923
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:00,560
the Greek God.

924
00:59:00,740 --> 00:59:04,960
But, Annie, honey, I can't be scared.
You look so cute.

925
00:59:06,140 --> 00:59:07,300
Annie, honey, cute.

926
00:59:07,780 --> 00:59:10,580
Don't you realize when a Greek got his
characters into such trouble he couldn't

927
00:59:10,580 --> 00:59:13,640
get them out, down from the heavens, a
Greek God Apollo would come on a machine

928
00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:14,640
and fix everything up.

929
00:59:14,900 --> 00:59:17,720
I'm the Greek God Apollo. You've got to
be scared of me.

930
00:59:18,540 --> 00:59:22,880
Well, maybe so. But that curly beard is
just too adorable.

931
00:59:23,180 --> 00:59:24,380
I know I'm going to laugh.

932
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:29,640
Oh, fellas, quiet down. Quiet, please.

933
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:31,080
Hey, Beezy.

934
00:59:31,980 --> 00:59:33,000
Here's your sign.

935
00:59:43,500 --> 00:59:46,000
Beezy, are you crazy?

936
00:59:46,460 --> 00:59:50,380
Mr. Costello said no sign, no statue,
and I gave him my word of honor.

937
00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:56,040
Susan!

938
00:59:56,260 --> 00:59:57,260
Susan Wiley!

939
00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:01,720
Here I am, Andy. Susan, I'm going to
give you a big part in the play.

940
01:00:01,940 --> 01:00:05,700
In fact, I'm creating this part
especially for you. There, now you stand

941
01:00:05,780 --> 01:00:10,300
and you hold your hand out like that
through the entire performance. What

942
01:00:10,300 --> 01:00:11,138
do I speak?

943
01:00:11,140 --> 01:00:12,140
Oh, Andrew.

944
01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:15,680
Your Aunt Miss Forrest is here.

945
01:00:16,380 --> 01:00:18,720
She wants to see you right away. She's
out in the outer office.

946
01:00:19,220 --> 01:00:20,540
She says it's confidential.

947
01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:22,560
Oh.

948
01:00:23,460 --> 01:00:27,720
Oh, okay, keep on going. Pretend that
Apollo is still on the cloud and

949
01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:29,880
being scared till I get back.

950
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:34,680
Hello, Aunt Mellie.

951
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:36,740
What's so important and confidential?

952
01:00:37,420 --> 01:00:42,380
Oh, now, look, don't laugh at me. I may
be risking my standing with the girls in

953
01:00:42,380 --> 01:00:44,280
this town, but Apollo still had the best
part.

954
01:00:45,020 --> 01:00:45,879
Sit down, Andrew.

955
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:50,640
Well, I don't think I have time, Aunt
Millie. I... I just finished marking the

956
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:51,880
English examination papers.

957
01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:56,960
Say, I guess I wasn't so good in that
English exam, huh? Must have got at

958
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:57,960
a C.

959
01:00:59,980 --> 01:01:01,260
D, it'd be pretty bad.

960
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:04,380
It's worse than that.

961
01:01:06,620 --> 01:01:07,900
You failed in English.

962
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:12,240
Failed in English?

963
01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:16,000
I couldn't mark you any better than an
F.

964
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:21,620
But if I fail in English, that means
I... That means I can't graduate.

965
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:23,800
No.

966
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:25,720
You can't.

967
01:01:27,300 --> 01:01:30,740
But I've got to graduate. I'm the
president of the senior class.

968
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:33,460
Oh, I tried desperately to give you a
higher mark.

969
01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:35,100
You know I tried, Andy.

970
01:01:35,580 --> 01:01:38,280
I strained every point to give you a D
that would pass you.

971
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:41,300
But I just couldn't.

972
01:02:02,850 --> 01:02:04,670
I thought you should know now.

973
01:02:05,210 --> 01:02:06,790
So you can tell your father today.

974
01:02:07,410 --> 01:02:08,410
Me tell Dad?

975
01:02:09,890 --> 01:02:10,890
Yes.

976
01:02:11,050 --> 01:02:13,890
Tomorrow morning, Mr. Davis will read
the final standings to the class.

977
01:02:14,210 --> 01:02:17,970
And your father, without any warning at
all, might have everybody in town

978
01:02:17,970 --> 01:02:18,970
bringing him the news.

979
01:02:19,930 --> 01:02:20,930
Yeah.

980
01:02:21,910 --> 01:02:24,050
That'd just about kill him, too.

981
01:02:25,310 --> 01:02:26,650
It's going to kill him anyway.

982
01:02:27,970 --> 01:02:31,090
You're right. I'd better tell him
myself.

983
01:02:33,490 --> 01:02:35,790
I wish I could say something to make it
easier.

984
01:02:36,690 --> 01:02:38,430
You know I'd do anything to help.

985
01:02:38,690 --> 01:02:39,690
Yeah, I know.

986
01:02:39,750 --> 01:02:40,750
I know.

987
01:02:41,550 --> 01:02:46,850
You'd do anything that was... that
wasn't cheating to pull me through.

988
01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:51,940
I don't deserve to have a good family.

989
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:57,260
I'm not going back in the auditorium
there and let them see me like this.

990
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:01,820
I'm going to sneak outside, go back to
the dressing rooms and get dressed.

991
01:03:03,420 --> 01:03:09,560
Will you tell my private secretary, tell
Catherine that I've got some important

992
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:12,640
family matters to attend to and that
she's to go on ahead.

993
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:14,040
She knows what to do.

994
01:03:16,140 --> 01:03:17,540
You know, sometimes I...

995
01:03:18,029 --> 01:03:19,830
Think that girl's smarter than I am.

996
01:03:32,870 --> 01:03:33,870
Dad?

997
01:03:34,370 --> 01:03:38,870
Well, Andrew, you better begin making up
your mind about going to college in

998
01:03:38,870 --> 01:03:39,870
September.

999
01:03:40,810 --> 01:03:43,670
Why do I have to go to college? I know
all I'll ever need to know.

1000
01:03:44,410 --> 01:03:46,250
I'm too small to play football.

1001
01:03:47,660 --> 01:03:48,960
That's one way of looking at it.

1002
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:52,360
What's the matter?

1003
01:03:53,140 --> 01:03:54,480
Cheer up, cheer up.

1004
01:03:54,780 --> 01:03:56,580
We may hear from Mr. Hopper yet.

1005
01:03:56,820 --> 01:03:58,060
That isn't it.

1006
01:03:59,780 --> 01:04:01,180
I've done something awful.

1007
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,120
It's all my fault, too.

1008
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:08,500
What's the matter? For the first time in
my life, I've... Murdered somebody?

1009
01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:12,380
No, I got an F in English.

1010
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:13,960
F.

1011
01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:16,200
Well, that's pretty low, isn't it?

1012
01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:18,340
It's terribly, terribly low.

1013
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:21,020
Isn't English a required subject?

1014
01:04:22,820 --> 01:04:24,860
Gotta have at least a D to pass.

1015
01:04:25,460 --> 01:04:26,760
Well, then you won't.

1016
01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:35,000
You mean to tell me that you've failed
to pass your final examinations?

1017
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:38,200
Well, I've been trying to tell you
gently.

1018
01:04:43,700 --> 01:04:45,340
What on earth happened to you?

1019
01:04:50,030 --> 01:04:54,290
I was feeling all right when I went into
the classroom, and then I started to

1020
01:04:54,290 --> 01:04:58,110
think about the yearbook and blue coats
and white pants.

1021
01:04:59,110 --> 01:05:03,110
And when I started to do the questions
instead of knowing the answers, I got

1022
01:05:03,110 --> 01:05:07,230
mixed up with the graduation dresses and
the god of youth and manly beauty.

1023
01:05:07,490 --> 01:05:09,950
I just couldn't concentrate.

1024
01:05:10,450 --> 01:05:11,450
And why?

1025
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:16,220
Because you've been so impressed with
all the incidental pomp and splendor of

1026
01:05:16,220 --> 01:05:20,120
graduation that you neglected entirely
the fundamental realities beneath.

1027
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:25,360
You've been so fascinated with all the
glitter, you didn't bother about the

1028
01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:27,860
gold. I guess you're right.

1029
01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:30,440
I know you're right.

1030
01:05:32,220 --> 01:05:37,480
If you could only appreciate that no
matter how much you're disappointed with

1031
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:39,440
me, the bottom's dropped out of my whole
life.

1032
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:46,340
And man to man, if you could only
realize how terribly I feel.

1033
01:05:47,980 --> 01:05:51,420
I'll take any kind of punishment you
want to give me and think it's not good

1034
01:05:51,420 --> 01:05:52,920
enough. Man to man, you say?

1035
01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:54,720
No, no.

1036
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:57,780
No, this isn't a man to man matter.

1037
01:05:58,160 --> 01:05:59,660
This is father to son.

1038
01:06:00,460 --> 01:06:04,400
Last week, you blithely couldn't decide
about going to college, and I was

1039
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:05,400
willing to be reasonable.

1040
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:06,640
But not any longer.

1041
01:06:06,940 --> 01:06:09,420
From now on, you're going to do as I
say.

1042
01:06:09,930 --> 01:06:12,950
You're going back to high school in
September, you're going to do your

1043
01:06:12,950 --> 01:06:17,050
year all over again, and you're going to
graduate next June with flying colors,

1044
01:06:17,210 --> 01:06:18,670
or I'll know the reason why.

1045
01:06:18,990 --> 01:06:19,669
Yes, sir.

1046
01:06:19,670 --> 01:06:23,950
A whole year of your life wasted, lost
forever.

1047
01:06:24,370 --> 01:06:26,290
James, Andrew, in the tree.

1048
01:06:28,370 --> 01:06:33,750
Yes, sir, coming, Emily. Dad, Dad, I
don't have to go down, do I? Your

1049
01:06:33,750 --> 01:06:35,130
got to know about this sooner or later.

1050
01:06:35,430 --> 01:06:39,170
And I'm particularly anxious that you
see how this is going to hurt her, too.

1051
01:06:39,980 --> 01:06:41,100
So, come on.

1052
01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:55,340
I declare all day long I've had the
funniest feeling that Marion wasn't

1053
01:06:55,500 --> 01:06:57,420
Now I remember she's been in New York
since Sunday.

1054
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:02,120
Andrew.

1055
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:05,020
James, Andrew's ill.

1056
01:07:05,740 --> 01:07:07,760
Yes, Emily, he's very ill.

1057
01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:10,300
But it's an illness of his soul.

1058
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:12,300
Sit down, please.

1059
01:07:14,620 --> 01:07:17,500
Well, it seems we have some bad news.

1060
01:07:20,300 --> 01:07:25,320
If you please, can I tell it? I would
prefer that.

1061
01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:27,740
Come over here and tell Mother.

1062
01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:31,580
If you don't mind, I'd prefer to sit
right here where I am.

1063
01:07:32,620 --> 01:07:36,280
It would be much easier on you and on
me, too.

1064
01:07:36,940 --> 01:07:39,360
You sit right where you are and take
your time.

1065
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:42,460
I'm not going to graduate.

1066
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:45,440
I failed in English.

1067
01:07:47,540 --> 01:07:50,080
You failed in...

1068
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:57,460
Oh,

1069
01:07:57,460 --> 01:07:58,460
is that all?

1070
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:04,240
When I was in school, I guess that would
have been pretty serious, but nowadays

1071
01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,380
I... I'm sure it's not nearly so.

1072
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,860
Boy, it's just as important, more
important.

1073
01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:16,220
Dad, tell her how bad it is. Tell her
how mad you are with me, and then you

1074
01:08:16,220 --> 01:08:17,099
holler at me.

1075
01:08:17,100 --> 01:08:20,680
James. Oh, I'm not going to holler.
There isn't anything more I can say.

1076
01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:24,140
You see the tears in your mother's eyes.

1077
01:08:25,380 --> 01:08:30,359
Andrew, mothers shed a great many tears
over their sons, mostly in private.

1078
01:08:41,390 --> 01:08:42,390
I'm not worth it.

1079
01:08:42,890 --> 01:08:43,890
I'm all right.

1080
01:08:44,689 --> 01:08:46,750
I was just thinking about your
disappointment.

1081
01:08:52,729 --> 01:08:55,310
Well, everybody, dinner's getting cold.

1082
01:08:57,830 --> 01:09:02,109
Well, son, I imagine that you're not
very hungry, so if you want to go to

1083
01:09:02,109 --> 01:09:04,090
room, I think we can excuse you.

1084
01:09:04,390 --> 01:09:06,729
Yes, I'd like to do that. Excuse me,
Mom.

1085
01:09:07,290 --> 01:09:08,390
Excuse me, Aunt Millie.

1086
01:09:08,630 --> 01:09:09,630
Excuse me, Dad.

1087
01:09:20,340 --> 01:09:21,340
Who is it?

1088
01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:23,319
It's Mother. I brought you something to
eat.

1089
01:09:24,779 --> 01:09:28,240
I don't want anything to eat, Mom. No,
you must eat, even if you're not hungry.

1090
01:09:28,460 --> 01:09:31,020
Though I don't know why. Your stomach
certainly ought to know what it wants.

1091
01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:35,700
Oh, Mom. If it's for me, whoever it is,
tell them I'm in bed asleep. No, don't

1092
01:09:35,700 --> 01:09:36,700
worry.

1093
01:09:36,740 --> 01:09:41,300
Andrew, about your father, you ought to
try and look at his side of this. It

1094
01:09:41,300 --> 01:09:45,359
isn't really that he's angry with you,
but he himself is hurt.

1095
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:49,600
I don't blame him. If he's half as hurt
as I am, he's in pretty bad shape.

1096
01:09:49,819 --> 01:09:51,380
It's Catherine Land on the telephone.

1097
01:09:51,660 --> 01:09:55,000
She says if you're still tied up... You
didn't tell her anything, did you, Dad?

1098
01:09:55,140 --> 01:09:58,860
No. She says she'll carry on with
everything and see you at 9 o 'clock in

1099
01:09:58,860 --> 01:10:01,200
morning. 9 o 'clock in the morning.

1100
01:10:02,140 --> 01:10:06,220
Dad, couldn't I get away from here for a
few days, out of town? Get as far away

1101
01:10:06,220 --> 01:10:09,260
from civilization as possible without it
costing too much?

1102
01:10:09,580 --> 01:10:10,580
Why?

1103
01:10:10,700 --> 01:10:14,220
Well, tomorrow morning the senior class
is going to meet to hear the standings,

1104
01:10:14,220 --> 01:10:18,300
and then everybody will know about me,
and then there'll be class day,

1105
01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,660
commencement. Well, you'll have to come
back sooner or later.

1106
01:10:22,380 --> 01:10:25,860
And I've learned the longer you put off
something that's unpleasant, the harder

1107
01:10:25,860 --> 01:10:27,980
it is when you finally have to face the
music.

1108
01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:43,980
have here your standings on the final
examinations.

1109
01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:47,900
In the light of these, the faculty will
today decide the winner of the

1110
01:10:47,900 --> 01:10:50,360
governor's prize for scholarship and
citizenship.

1111
01:10:50,820 --> 01:10:54,000
I shall post these results immediately
on the bulletin board.

1112
01:10:54,820 --> 01:10:57,180
This class has made a fine record.

1113
01:10:58,020 --> 01:11:01,900
Only one of you has failed to meet our
final scholastic requirements.

1114
01:11:03,480 --> 01:11:04,480
That is all.

1115
01:11:07,700 --> 01:11:08,720
Mr. Davies.

1116
01:11:10,350 --> 01:11:12,050
May I say something to the class,
please?

1117
01:11:12,670 --> 01:11:14,070
Why, certainly, Andrew.

1118
01:11:14,350 --> 01:11:15,350
Thank you.

1119
01:11:18,290 --> 01:11:22,610
Members of the senior class, I want to
say something.

1120
01:11:24,170 --> 01:11:26,070
I was the only one that didn't pass.

1121
01:11:27,090 --> 01:11:28,090
Oh, no.

1122
01:11:28,970 --> 01:11:35,830
And now I want to tender my resignation
as president

1123
01:11:35,830 --> 01:11:36,830
of the senior class.

1124
01:11:40,440 --> 01:11:46,640
Now that I'm not going to have anything
more to do with anything, I guess I'll

1125
01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:47,640
run along.

1126
01:11:53,260 --> 01:11:54,260
Andrew, wait a minute.

1127
01:11:55,060 --> 01:11:56,420
Gee, this is a rotten deal.

1128
01:11:58,180 --> 01:11:59,860
There's nothing much we can do about it.

1129
01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:03,240
The best thing for you to do would be to
get your job done.

1130
01:12:03,460 --> 01:12:05,440
You haven't even started the decorations
yet.

1131
01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:07,000
I worked all night on those designs.

1132
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:08,680
Andrew!

1133
01:12:08,750 --> 01:12:09,750
It isn't fair.

1134
01:12:10,870 --> 01:12:13,690
The teacher who flunked me out was my
own Aunt Millie.

1135
01:12:14,250 --> 01:12:16,350
So you can imagine how bad I was.

1136
01:12:17,610 --> 01:12:20,710
Andrew, can't we do something about
this? You're one of the brightest boys

1137
01:12:20,710 --> 01:12:21,710
the class.

1138
01:12:21,910 --> 01:12:23,770
There must be something wrong with me.

1139
01:12:26,010 --> 01:12:29,090
You kids are so swell.

1140
01:12:30,190 --> 01:12:33,890
But I kind of want to be by myself now.

1141
01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:34,960
One to the city, please. Round trip?

1142
01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:37,180
No, just one way. I may stay a little
while with some friends.

1143
01:13:37,860 --> 01:13:39,660
The next train is the express, isn't it?

1144
01:14:14,890 --> 01:14:16,090
Happy looking, Buggy, eh?

1145
01:14:16,310 --> 01:14:19,310
Yeah. First one I've seen with these hot
red leather seats.

1146
01:14:20,510 --> 01:14:25,170
Yeah. The top goes up and down when you
push a button, don't it?

1147
01:14:25,670 --> 01:14:27,130
Easier than falling out of bed.

1148
01:14:27,670 --> 01:14:31,090
Could I try it once, please? I wouldn't
hurt it.

1149
01:14:31,330 --> 01:14:32,330
Sure.

1150
01:14:32,970 --> 01:14:34,450
Right -hand knob on the dashboard.

1151
01:14:34,810 --> 01:14:35,810
Thanks.

1152
01:14:51,980 --> 01:14:52,818
Pretty convenient.

1153
01:14:52,820 --> 01:14:55,960
If you're driving along on a beautiful
night with your best girl and decide to

1154
01:14:55,960 --> 01:15:00,340
park for a while, maybe the moonlight's
too bright for your eyes. So, presto,

1155
01:15:00,340 --> 01:15:01,480
snug as a bug in a rug.

1156
01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:03,160
Yeah.

1157
01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:05,820
Snappy looking little buggy.

1158
01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:07,960
Thanks.

1159
01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:14,680
No, Andrew must not have any special
consideration. But it isn't special

1160
01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:17,340
consideration, is it, Harry? Here, read
this again, Miss Forrest, please.

1161
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:24,860
Oh, gee, that's great. We still got to
sell the idea to Mr. Davis. But we

1162
01:15:24,860 --> 01:15:26,400
couldn't do it without you as our expert
witness.

1163
01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:27,960
Miss Catherine Lamb?

1164
01:15:28,500 --> 01:15:31,080
Yes. A package and this letter for you.
Thank you.

1165
01:15:31,320 --> 01:15:32,440
It's Andy's handwriting.

1166
01:15:40,180 --> 01:15:41,180
Harry, look.

1167
01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:43,080
Well, I'll be darned.

1168
01:15:46,140 --> 01:15:47,140
Let me see that letter.

1169
01:15:51,020 --> 01:15:52,100
Don't you realize what this means?

1170
01:15:53,420 --> 01:15:54,420
He's running away?

1171
01:15:55,380 --> 01:15:57,200
Yes. But where could he go?

1172
01:15:57,420 --> 01:15:58,420
How could he go?

1173
01:15:58,440 --> 01:15:59,560
He has no car now.

1174
01:15:59,880 --> 01:16:02,760
Hitchhike, maybe. No, anybody he could
hitch a ride from would know him.

1175
01:16:03,020 --> 01:16:05,080
The railroad. Yes, I'll get him, Miss
Forrest.

1176
01:16:05,300 --> 01:16:06,300
Hey, wait for me.

1177
01:16:11,540 --> 01:16:13,500
But he's on that train. The ticket agent
said so.

1178
01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:15,320
Stay here.

1179
01:16:29,100 --> 01:16:31,820
You're a sucker to run away when there's
still a chance. What are you doing

1180
01:16:31,820 --> 01:16:34,460
here? Sitting here saying you're a
sucker to run away when there's still a

1181
01:16:34,460 --> 01:16:35,940
chance. Stop your kidding.

1182
01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:37,400
Tickets, please.

1183
01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:45,620
One ticket to Lyndhurst, please.

1184
01:16:46,260 --> 01:16:48,460
Lyndhurst? You're traveling in the wrong
direction.

1185
01:16:48,820 --> 01:16:52,120
This train doesn't go anywhere near
Lyndhurst. It doesn't? No.

1186
01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:56,700
But when we slow down at the junction,
I'll stop her, and it'll do you good to

1187
01:16:56,700 --> 01:16:57,700
walk back.

1188
01:17:00,460 --> 01:17:01,459
Are you nuts?

1189
01:17:01,460 --> 01:17:04,580
No, I'm not. And when this train does
stop at the junction, we'll both get off

1190
01:17:04,580 --> 01:17:06,300
if I have to take it by the back of your
fool neck.

1191
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:09,240
Here's my authority, Mr. Davis.

1192
01:17:09,700 --> 01:17:13,560
When the result of any pupil's
examination does not fairly reflect the

1193
01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:17,400
intelligence factor of that student's
past record, it is certainly within the

1194
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:20,540
discretion of the institution's head to
authorize another examination.

1195
01:17:20,900 --> 01:17:21,900
What more do you want?

1196
01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:23,840
Miss Forrest?

1197
01:17:24,300 --> 01:17:26,500
Andrew's been an honor student in
English all year.

1198
01:17:26,910 --> 01:17:30,250
Mr. Davis, they do it all the time in
colleges for football players.

1199
01:17:31,070 --> 01:17:36,150
Well, the whole principle of present
-day education is to help the student

1200
01:17:36,150 --> 01:17:41,490
progress to the highest stages, rather
than the old -fashioned idea of daring

1201
01:17:41,490 --> 01:17:42,490
him to succeed.

1202
01:17:43,690 --> 01:17:46,670
Andrew, were you planning to go to
college?

1203
01:17:47,110 --> 01:17:50,830
Oh, Mr. Davis, I'd rather go to college
than be six feet tall.

1204
01:17:51,350 --> 01:17:55,610
Miss Forrest, can you have a new
examination ready by tomorrow morning?

1205
01:17:56,190 --> 01:17:57,190
Good stiff one.

1206
01:17:58,830 --> 01:18:00,730
Oh, thanks, Mr. Davis. Thanks a lot.

1207
01:18:00,950 --> 01:18:02,390
Gee, I'd better start studying.

1208
01:18:02,790 --> 01:18:03,790
Don't worry, Hardy.

1209
01:18:03,890 --> 01:18:05,090
You're going to study.

1210
01:18:05,390 --> 01:18:06,390
We'll see to that.

1211
01:18:07,650 --> 01:18:10,170
Oh, come on, Andy. You won't get all day
to answer one question tomorrow.

1212
01:18:10,530 --> 01:18:11,990
Is it lays or lies?

1213
01:18:13,270 --> 01:18:19,570
Dixon, a little town of a hundred
families lies in the east. Right.

1214
01:18:20,090 --> 01:18:25,390
Who or whom do you think I am? Who? Oh,
whom? Who? Who do you think I am? Got

1215
01:18:25,390 --> 01:18:28,270
that? Who do I think I am? No, who do
you think I am?

1216
01:18:28,550 --> 01:18:29,509
Sentence structure.

1217
01:18:29,510 --> 01:18:33,290
My sister wears funny little sandals on
her feet which have holes cut in the

1218
01:18:33,290 --> 01:18:35,430
toes. Right or wrong? Polly, that's
silly.

1219
01:18:35,650 --> 01:18:36,650
Right or wrong?

1220
01:18:36,830 --> 01:18:37,830
It's structurally incorrect.

1221
01:18:38,270 --> 01:18:43,230
Good. How nice or nicely all your
flowers look? Which? Nice or nicely?

1222
01:18:43,350 --> 01:18:44,350
nice. Why?

1223
01:18:46,130 --> 01:18:50,090
Because if it was nicely, it'd sound
like the flowers were looking at you.

1224
01:18:50,290 --> 01:18:51,450
Right, but no jokes, please.

1225
01:18:51,710 --> 01:18:55,650
Grammar. You helped win the game quite
as much as we or us. Which is right.

1226
01:18:56,090 --> 01:18:57,090
We. We.

1227
01:18:57,370 --> 01:18:58,570
Us. We.

1228
01:18:59,230 --> 01:19:00,230
It's us.

1229
01:19:00,310 --> 01:19:02,310
It's we. The word did is implied.

1230
01:19:02,590 --> 01:19:04,690
You helped win the game quite as much as
we did.

1231
01:19:04,930 --> 01:19:05,809
Are you sure?

1232
01:19:05,810 --> 01:19:07,670
I'm sure. Get together, will you please?

1233
01:19:07,990 --> 01:19:11,550
I'm taking this English exam and you're
driving me crazy.

1234
01:19:11,850 --> 01:19:13,250
I'm sorry. I'll be quiet.

1235
01:19:13,470 --> 01:19:14,470
Here are five sentences.

1236
01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:18,720
Indicate which sentences contain one, a
predicate adjective, two, an infinitive

1237
01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:22,880
phrase used as an appositive, three, a
subordinate conjunction, and four, a

1238
01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:25,060
compound personal pronoun used
reflexively.

1239
01:19:25,340 --> 01:19:28,500
Mark one alongside the sentence
containing a predicate adjective.

1240
01:19:28,780 --> 01:19:30,220
A predicate adjective. A predicate
adjective.

1241
01:19:30,980 --> 01:19:31,980
B.

1242
01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:37,680
Right. Mark two alongside the sentence
containing the infinitive phrase used as

1243
01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:38,519
an appositive.

1244
01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:40,160
Infinitive phrase uses an appositive.

1245
01:19:42,410 --> 01:19:44,970
Oh, you can't fool me. That's one of
those trick questions.

1246
01:19:45,790 --> 01:19:49,050
There's no infinitive phrase in any one
of these sentences. There certainly is.

1247
01:19:49,270 --> 01:19:51,030
Well, if there is, I can't find it.

1248
01:19:51,450 --> 01:19:52,970
What is an infinitive phrase?

1249
01:19:53,450 --> 01:19:54,450
I wouldn't know.

1250
01:19:54,610 --> 01:19:55,690
But you've got to know.

1251
01:19:57,270 --> 01:20:01,970
I give up. Don't give up, you're
running. If you pick out the other

1252
01:20:01,970 --> 01:20:04,110
the one that's left has to be the
infinitive phrase.

1253
01:20:05,530 --> 01:20:08,510
That's right, that's right, Harry. Give
me another one, will you, Catherine?

1254
01:20:08,750 --> 01:20:11,490
All right, mark three beside the
sentence containing a subordinate

1255
01:20:12,309 --> 01:20:13,810
Well, that's simple. D.

1256
01:20:14,250 --> 01:20:18,730
Right. All right, mark four. Compound
personal pronouns used reflexively.

1257
01:20:21,170 --> 01:20:25,050
I don't know that one either. Give him
another glass of water. But he's had six

1258
01:20:25,050 --> 01:20:26,430
glasses already. He'll burst.

1259
01:20:26,670 --> 01:20:30,010
No, no, no. Thank you, Polly. I don't
care for any water. I'm not going to be

1260
01:20:30,010 --> 01:20:32,310
able to pass. You guys are just wasting
your time.

1261
01:20:32,690 --> 01:20:35,390
But you've got to. You've got to. I'll
never speak to you again.

1262
01:20:36,310 --> 01:20:37,310
Don't yell at me.

1263
01:20:38,710 --> 01:20:41,970
I'm ashamed of you. I'm sorry I had
anything to do with getting you

1264
01:20:43,450 --> 01:20:45,070
Give me another one. Let's go on.

1265
01:21:18,640 --> 01:21:20,620
I have a surprise for you.

1266
01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:23,880
We are my friend.

1267
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,440
A little surprise.

1268
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:29,340
What's this all about?

1269
01:21:29,720 --> 01:21:33,260
Well, the exam. Aunt Millie, she
couldn't tell me what my mark was until

1270
01:21:33,260 --> 01:21:34,219
she saw the principal.

1271
01:21:34,220 --> 01:21:37,000
But if I'd failed, she wouldn't have run
out of the room singing Happy Days Are

1272
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:38,000
Here Again out loud.

1273
01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:41,680
I strongly suspect that Aunt Millie did
that on purpose.

1274
01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:46,760
I'm very grateful to you, to the others.
Funny thing about that exam. I studied

1275
01:21:46,760 --> 01:21:49,420
all right, and I actually knew all the
answers. Can you beat that?

1276
01:21:50,140 --> 01:21:54,020
Well, we're seldom called upon in this
world to do things beyond human effort.

1277
01:21:54,940 --> 01:21:58,720
Strangely enough, if you prepare for any
contingency, you usually conquer it in

1278
01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:00,180
a surprisingly easy fashion.

1279
01:22:01,460 --> 01:22:04,000
Yes, that's the funny thing about life,
isn't it?

1280
01:22:04,220 --> 01:22:05,220
Yeah.

1281
01:22:06,300 --> 01:22:07,300
Oh.

1282
01:22:07,980 --> 01:22:10,140
There's one very bad thing about all
this.

1283
01:22:10,900 --> 01:22:12,630
What? What's the matter now?

1284
01:22:13,170 --> 01:22:18,270
Well, your mother insists that on
graduation night I wear that high hat

1285
01:22:18,270 --> 01:22:19,249
bought me.

1286
01:22:19,250 --> 01:22:20,250
Why not?

1287
01:22:23,650 --> 01:22:24,650
Hello?

1288
01:22:25,230 --> 01:22:27,910
Yes, yes, Mr. Harper, this is Judge
Hardy.

1289
01:22:28,170 --> 01:22:31,790
But the trouble is, the minute I got
that telegram, I had to recommend

1290
01:22:31,790 --> 01:22:32,790
man.

1291
01:22:32,890 --> 01:22:35,630
It was confirmed that night, and he's
ready to sail tomorrow.

1292
01:22:36,250 --> 01:22:37,290
Of course, I understand.

1293
01:22:38,170 --> 01:22:39,410
Thank you very much.

1294
01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:57,900
Huh? Catherine, Harry, and Mr. Land,
they all wanted so little out of life,

1295
01:22:57,960 --> 01:22:58,960
didn't they?

1296
01:22:59,060 --> 01:23:00,060
Yes, they did.

1297
01:23:00,480 --> 01:23:04,660
They are the modern version of America's
old pioneer spirit. Take things as they

1298
01:23:04,660 --> 01:23:07,360
come and work out your own destiny, but
proudly.

1299
01:23:08,740 --> 01:23:11,520
I'm not foolish enough to think that I'm
going to get my new car now.

1300
01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:14,320
Do you think you could help him with
that money?

1301
01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:19,460
Yes, I think I could.

1302
01:23:20,200 --> 01:23:23,540
Mr. Land is not modern enough to have
the wrong kind of pride.

1303
01:23:25,160 --> 01:23:28,100
But, Andrew, what makes you so anxious?

1304
01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:30,720
Conscience?

1305
01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:32,120
Maybe.

1306
01:23:32,440 --> 01:23:35,100
Catherine's kind of a terrific girl.

1307
01:23:35,340 --> 01:23:38,940
Oh, another little detour along the
highway of love?

1308
01:23:40,080 --> 01:23:44,340
Dad. Catherine means nothing more to me
than a faithful employee.

1309
01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:51,880
I did make her a present of some silk
stockings, but in all innocence.

1310
01:23:52,300 --> 01:23:54,860
Not even one little pass at kissing the
lady?

1311
01:23:55,140 --> 01:23:56,740
I mean in all innocence.

1312
01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:00,260
Dad, one little pass? Where did you
learn such language?

1313
01:24:00,640 --> 01:24:01,780
You never use it yourself.

1314
01:24:02,220 --> 01:24:05,160
Yeah, but the way we kids use it, we
make it sound like it's all good, clean

1315
01:24:05,160 --> 01:24:06,760
fun. Well, what are you complaining
about now?

1316
01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:09,720
Well, I was afraid that you were afraid
that it wasn't all respectable.

1317
01:24:10,140 --> 01:24:13,020
I don't know of any better time to make
a joke than when we're worried.

1318
01:24:14,100 --> 01:24:20,100
Well, I'm plenty worried about that
South American fiasco. Well, suppose we

1319
01:24:20,100 --> 01:24:22,600
don't mention to the Lans that there's
positively no job.

1320
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:25,120
Let them get some happiness out of this
graduation.

1321
01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:27,380
Yeah, that's swell.

1322
01:24:27,940 --> 01:24:30,200
Because this graduation is serious.

1323
01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:34,580
It's so serious, it's almost fatal.

1324
01:24:34,900 --> 01:24:36,060
Like getting married.

1325
01:24:37,580 --> 01:24:41,640
Oh, uh... Please take a letter, Miss
Land. The Keystone Printing Company. I

1326
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:45,920
herewith returning to you the final
proof of the commencement day program.

1327
01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:47,360
Very truly yours.

1328
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:52,720
Oh, Miss Land, have you seen the final
proof of the program here? I think not.

1329
01:24:53,500 --> 01:24:56,900
Andrew, it's all for my benefit, isn't
it?

1330
01:24:57,300 --> 01:24:58,980
This big businessman attitude.

1331
01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:05,000
Well, I... The South American job is off
for good, and you're trying to break it

1332
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:05,898
to me gently.

1333
01:25:05,900 --> 01:25:08,800
No, no, that's not what I had in mind at
all. Here, I want you to glance over

1334
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:13,300
the final proof of the program and see
if the first item on page three here

1335
01:25:13,300 --> 01:25:14,700
meets with your personal approval.

1336
01:25:16,940 --> 01:25:18,280
Solo, Catherine Land?

1337
01:25:18,580 --> 01:25:21,860
Uh -huh. But we have to have another
graduate do something on the program on

1338
01:25:21,860 --> 01:25:24,260
account of, naturally, I'm not going to
read my graduation essay.

1339
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:26,000
But why not?

1340
01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:30,680
You wrote your essay, and you are going
to graduate even if you... Even if

1341
01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:31,680
you...

1342
01:25:33,070 --> 01:25:35,430
Yeah, I'm the guy that made it in two
jumps.

1343
01:25:36,370 --> 01:25:38,750
No, I asked my dad about this, and he
said it was right.

1344
01:25:39,630 --> 01:25:41,250
He also said he was proud of me, too.

1345
01:25:41,870 --> 01:25:44,410
Of course, he did say he got proud of me
putting here too late.

1346
01:25:44,730 --> 01:25:46,610
You didn't write the essay, so you've
got to sing.

1347
01:25:47,470 --> 01:25:48,470
You did this.

1348
01:25:49,830 --> 01:25:51,010
You did it for me, didn't you?

1349
01:25:51,350 --> 01:25:53,150
Well, what's that got to do with your
singing?

1350
01:25:53,470 --> 01:25:57,030
And please, please, this time, just this
time, sing a song with some music in

1351
01:25:57,030 --> 01:26:00,470
it, huh? I mean, you don't have to give
out with a regular boogie -woogie, but,

1352
01:26:00,570 --> 01:26:01,810
you know, a tune.

1353
01:31:39,470 --> 01:31:40,970
I'd like to sing a number by request.

1354
01:32:15,150 --> 01:32:19,330
So don't stray too far from home.

1355
01:32:20,370 --> 01:32:27,070
Incidentally, I let my eyes on you. I'm
checking on all you

1356
01:32:27,070 --> 01:32:29,290
do from A to Z.

1357
01:33:56,620 --> 01:34:01,060
Now my privilege to introduce our
governor, the Honorable John F.

1358
01:34:05,440 --> 01:34:10,720
Mr. Davis, graduates of Carvel High
School, ladies and gentlemen.

1359
01:34:13,480 --> 01:34:19,640
The winner of the prize for scholarship
and citizenship is...

1360
01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:21,660
Harry Land.

1361
01:34:30,060 --> 01:34:34,380
Citizenship? Well, that's why Andrew
didn't win. He won't be a citizen till

1362
01:34:34,380 --> 01:34:35,380
21.

1363
01:34:35,940 --> 01:34:38,140
That land boy looks young for 21 to me.

1364
01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:42,400
Patty, here's your well -earned prize.

1365
01:34:44,060 --> 01:34:49,140
And if you'll look over there, you'll
see your name engraved as the first to

1366
01:34:49,140 --> 01:34:50,680
this distinction among your fellows.

1367
01:34:51,140 --> 01:34:52,680
Thank you. Thank you, sir.

1368
01:35:15,850 --> 01:35:18,090
Judge, it's strange how time mellows
things.

1369
01:35:18,370 --> 01:35:21,290
I remember this place when it was a
dingy old barn.

1370
01:35:21,510 --> 01:35:26,110
The youngsters dolled it up. Harry Land
did it. If I bring him over, would you

1371
01:35:26,110 --> 01:35:30,030
tell him what a swell job he did, sir? I
hereby appoint you chairman of the

1372
01:35:30,030 --> 01:35:31,650
committee to bring him over. Thank you.

1373
01:35:34,170 --> 01:35:37,490
That's the Land family, the one I told
you about.

1374
01:35:38,610 --> 01:35:39,610
Here he is, Governor.

1375
01:35:40,110 --> 01:35:43,830
Harry. What you've done with this
auditorium is little short of genius.

1376
01:35:44,050 --> 01:35:45,970
On a total appropriation of $9 .60.

1377
01:35:46,330 --> 01:35:49,890
It's all out of cardboard. I promoted
the Carvel Laundry out of 500 cardboard

1378
01:35:49,890 --> 01:35:50,890
shirt buttons.

1379
01:35:51,350 --> 01:35:54,370
Harry, my brother owns a department
store in the city.

1380
01:35:54,850 --> 01:35:58,290
How would you like to design background
for merchandise and window displays?

1381
01:35:59,650 --> 01:36:02,950
Well, I think you should know, sir, that
my father helped me design the

1382
01:36:02,950 --> 01:36:03,919
decorations.

1383
01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:07,020
But I can't give the job to your father
because I'm going to appoint him

1384
01:36:07,020 --> 01:36:08,320
interpreter to the appellate court.

1385
01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:09,760
What? If you'll accept.

1386
01:36:10,080 --> 01:36:12,320
Oh, say yes before I drop dead, Clay.

1387
01:36:13,220 --> 01:36:17,240
Andy. Andy, will you please talk to the
country club? You're present in the

1388
01:36:17,240 --> 01:36:18,860
class. You've got to be at the dance on
time.

1389
01:36:19,180 --> 01:36:24,120
Oh, excuse me, everybody. I've got to
rush out to the country club. You know

1390
01:36:24,120 --> 01:36:27,080
it is, Mr. Governor, when you accept a
position of public responsibility.

1391
01:36:27,080 --> 01:36:28,220
just a slave of the people.

1392
01:36:29,060 --> 01:36:33,120
May I still have use of the sedan,
please? Yes, yes. It's in the parking

1393
01:36:33,220 --> 01:36:34,420
About fourth car from the right.

1394
01:36:34,900 --> 01:36:36,480
Goodbye, Dad. Here comes Andrew now.

1395
01:36:36,720 --> 01:36:37,960
You sure everything's all set?

1396
01:36:38,660 --> 01:36:41,940
Will this be a surprise for young Mr.
Andrew Hardy?

1397
01:36:45,740 --> 01:36:48,300
Polly, I believe you're going to the
dance with me, aren't you?

1398
01:36:48,820 --> 01:36:50,680
Wouldn't you prefer to take your
secretary?

1399
01:36:52,430 --> 01:36:56,130
Look, young woman, I've stood about all
the misery one human can stand. I'm

1400
01:36:56,130 --> 01:36:59,190
going to fix this wife and secretary
situation once and for all, so that no

1401
01:36:59,190 --> 01:37:01,090
woman would dare bring it up for the
next hundred years.

1402
01:37:03,910 --> 01:37:07,490
I guess I'm not the first man that was
ever faced with this problem, but at my

1403
01:37:07,490 --> 01:37:09,030
time of life, I prefer to...

1404
01:37:09,030 --> 01:37:15,850
Dad said fourth car to the

1405
01:37:15,850 --> 01:37:19,290
left. One, two, three, four.

1406
01:37:21,550 --> 01:37:22,710
Oh, my gosh.

1407
01:37:23,630 --> 01:37:26,530
Of course, this is the most beautiful
car in the world.

1408
01:37:26,810 --> 01:37:27,830
You're telling me.

1409
01:37:28,470 --> 01:37:30,170
Surprised? Why, I'm speechless.

1410
01:37:30,570 --> 01:37:34,130
A father that would give a graduation
present like that is a privilege to

1411
01:37:34,130 --> 01:37:35,130
humanity.

1412
01:37:39,330 --> 01:37:42,650
Slide over, my dear girl. I'm going to
drive. A woman's place is in the home.

1413
01:37:43,630 --> 01:37:44,630
Yes, Andy.

1414
01:37:48,430 --> 01:37:51,150
Don't say anything for five minutes till
I find out that I'm not dreaming.

1415
01:37:51,550 --> 01:37:55,050
But, Andy... Remember what happened to
Henry VIII's wives for talking at the

1416
01:37:55,050 --> 01:37:56,050
wrong time.

1417
01:37:56,070 --> 01:37:57,070
Yes, Andy.

1418
01:38:06,570 --> 01:38:10,530
Now, for instance, the moonlight is too
bright for your eyes.

1419
01:38:10,810 --> 01:38:11,749
Yes, Andy.

1420
01:38:11,750 --> 01:38:15,350
So, do I get out to put up the top and
soil my white pants in the process? No,

1421
01:38:15,530 --> 01:38:17,250
no, no, no, no. I sit back, relax.

1422
01:38:17,820 --> 01:38:18,820
Pushed a little button.

1423
01:38:19,500 --> 01:38:20,500
Presto.

1424
01:38:22,720 --> 01:38:23,980
Snug as a bug in a rug.

1425
01:38:26,460 --> 01:38:29,460
Oh, I'm so thrilled I won't even be
jealous of Catherine.

1426
01:38:30,680 --> 01:38:34,340
You're thrilled. I'm happier than any
woman in the Benedict family as far back

1427
01:38:34,340 --> 01:38:38,400
as Noah's Ark. And as for you being
jealous of Catherine, it's an insult to

1428
01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:39,400
intelligence.

1429
01:38:40,280 --> 01:38:43,180
Well, there wasn't anything wrong with
your intelligence when you picked out

1430
01:38:43,180 --> 01:38:44,180
silk stockings.

1431
01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:46,800
She did look nice in them tonight,
didn't she?

1432
01:38:47,680 --> 01:38:48,800
You monster, you.

1433
01:38:49,100 --> 01:38:52,480
Polly, this is 1941. I'm just trying to
humanize myself as an employer.

1434
01:38:53,460 --> 01:38:57,620
Well, you... You didn't buy her anything
else, did you? No, nothing. Nothing

1435
01:38:57,620 --> 01:38:59,080
else. Except a pair of pants.

1436
01:38:59,660 --> 01:39:00,660
Pants?

1437
01:39:01,020 --> 01:39:02,020
Flannel pants.

1438
01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:06,620
Flannel? White flannel pants, so her
brother Harry could graduate in.

1439
01:39:06,880 --> 01:39:09,160
Why, my dad gave me the money.

1440
01:39:09,420 --> 01:39:12,380
I'm sorry, Andy. I thought you meant...
Yeah, I know what you thought. But I

1441
01:39:12,380 --> 01:39:14,760
don't care to discuss anything on such a
low level of conversation.

1442
01:39:17,390 --> 01:39:18,390
Why don't you relax?

1443
01:39:22,830 --> 01:39:25,230
I just love this brown leather
upholstery.

1444
01:39:25,790 --> 01:39:28,670
My dear girl, it's red leather
upholstery. Brown?

1445
01:39:29,150 --> 01:39:30,150
It's brown leather.

1446
01:39:30,650 --> 01:39:33,310
It's red leather, if you don't mind. I
happen to know what kind of upholstery I

1447
01:39:33,310 --> 01:39:34,310
picked out for my own car.

1448
01:39:35,570 --> 01:39:36,570
Your car?

1449
01:39:36,750 --> 01:39:39,030
Sure, my dad was nice enough to give it
to me after all.

1450
01:39:39,790 --> 01:39:40,810
This is my car.

1451
01:39:41,660 --> 01:39:43,020
My father gave it to me for graduating.

1452
01:39:43,540 --> 01:39:46,900
It's brown leather upholstery. There's
my name on the license.

1453
01:39:56,580 --> 01:40:01,240
Polly, I've been living in a fool's
paradise.

1454
01:40:06,120 --> 01:40:07,120
Hey, hi.

1455
01:40:07,280 --> 01:40:08,380
Whose car is that?

1456
01:40:10,090 --> 01:40:12,250
You took the wrong one from the parking
lot.

1457
01:40:13,250 --> 01:40:16,870
Mine? And, son, the radio antenna.

1458
01:40:17,230 --> 01:40:18,390
Look, it's automatic.

1459
01:40:23,150 --> 01:40:24,170
I'm looking for the girl.
