(Radio announcer) Hi, everybody. This is your Cousin Brucie.

Whoa! Our summer romances are in full bloom,

and everybody but everybody is in love,

so here's a great song from The Four Seasons.

♪ ("Big Girls Don't Cry" playing) ♪

(Baby) That was the summer of 1963,

when everybody called me Baby,

and it didn’t occur to me to mind.

That was before President Kennedy was shot,

before The Beatles came,

when I couldn't wait to join the Peace Corps,

and I thought I'd never find a guy as great as my Dad.

♪ ("Big Girls Don't Cry" continues playing) ♪

That was the summer we went to Kellerman's.

(Stan on bullhorn) Ping-Pong in the west arcade, softball on the east diamond.

All you Sandy Koufaxes, get out there!

Complimentary dance lessons in the gazebo.

Oh, my God. Look at that!

Mom, I should've brought the coral shoes. You said I was taking too much.

Well, sweetheart, you brought ten pairs.

But the coral shoes matched that dress.

This is not a tragedy.

A tragedy is three men trapped in a mine

or police dogs used in Birmingham.

Monks burning themselves in protest.

Butt out, Baby.

Okay, we got horseshoes on the south lawn in 15 minutes!

We've got "Splish-Splash," the water class, down by the lake.

We have the still life art class, we got volleyball and croquet.

And for you older folks, we got sacks!

(Laughs) Gotcha.

Doc!

Max!

Well, Doc, after all these years I finally got you up on my mountain.

(Chuckles) So how's the blood pressure, Max?

I want you girls to know if it were not for this man,

I'd be standing here dead.

- Billy, get the bags. - Right away, Doc. Right away.

I kept the best cabin for you and your beautiful girls.

Hey, thanks a lot.

You want a job here?

There's a merengue class in the gazebo in the next few minutes,

the greatest teacher. Used to be a Rockette.

It's his first real vacation in six years, Max. Take it easy.

Three weeks here, it'll feel like a year.

One, two, three, four!

One, two, three, four!

One, two, three, four!

Stomp those grapes and stomp some more!

One, two, three, four! Listen to the music!

- One, two, three... - Sorry.

Move your caboose and shake it loose!

One, two, three, four! Stomp those grapes!

Whoo!

Now come on, men! Follow me into a round robin!

Ladies, the inner circle!

Oh, come on, ladies!

God wouldn't have given you maracas

if he didn't want you to shake them!

Okay now, ladies, when I say "stop,"

you're gonna find the man of your dreams.

Stop!

Now remember, he's the boss on the dance floor, if nowhere else.

(Laughter)

(Crickets chirping)

Mom, Dad, I'm going up to the main house to look around.

(Max) There are two kinds of help here.

You waiters are all college guys,

and I went to Harvard and Yale to hire you.

And why did I do that? Why?

I shouldn't have to remind you. This is a family place.

That means you keep your fingers out of the water,

your hair out of the soup, and show the goddamn daughters a good time.

All the daughters.

Even the dogs.

Schlepp 'em out to the terrace, Show 'em the stars.

- Romance 'em any way you want. - Got that, guys?

The thing to do-- Hey, hold it! Hold it.

Well, if it isn't the entertainment staff.

Listen, wise ass, you got your own rules.

Dance with the daughters.

Teach 'em the mambo, the cha-cha, anything they pay for.

But that's it. That's where it ends.

No funny business, no conversations, and keep your hands off!

It's the same at all these places.

Some ass in the woods, maybe, but no conversation.

- (Waiters laugh) - Watch it, Rodriguez.

You think you can keep that straight, Johnny?

What you can and can't lay your hands on?

- (Light laugh) - (Sighs)

You just put your pickle on everybody's plate, college boy,

and leave the hard stuff to me.

(Guys) Whoa.

Sit down, sit down and I'll get you some wine.

Thank you, Max.

Ah...

This is Dr. and Mrs. Houseman.

Baby, Lisa, this is your waiter, Robbie Gould.

- Yale medical school. - Uh-huh.

Robbie, these people are my special guests. Get them anything they want.

- Enjoy. - Thanks, Max.

Oh, look at all this leftover food.

Are there still starving children in Europe?

- Try Southeast Asia, Ma. - Oh, right.

Robbie, Baby wants to send her leftover pot roast to Southeast Asia,

so anything we don't finish, you wrap up.

Max, our Baby's gonna change the world.

- And what are you gonna do, missy? - Lisa's gonna decorate it.

She already does.

Doc, I want you to meet someone. My grandson Neil.

Goes to the Cornell School of Hotel Management.

Baby's starting Mount Holyoke in the fall.

Oh, great.

Are you going to major in English?

No. Economics of underdeveloped countries.

I'm going to Mississippi with a couple of busboys, freedom ride.

Come on, doll. Let's take a walk.

I love to watch your hair blowing in the breeze.

Maybe my parents are looking for me.

Baby, don't worry.

If they think you're with me, they'll be the happiest parents at Kellerman's.

I have to say it.

- I’m known as the catch of the county. - I'm sure you are.

Last week I took a girl away from Jamie, the lifeguard.

And he said to her right in front of me, "What does he have that I don't have?"

And she said, "Two hotels."

Robbie.

I don't hear an apology.

Go back to Mommy and Daddy and keep listening, Lisa.

Maybe you'll hear one in your dreams.

I'm sorry you had to see that, Baby.

Sometimes in this world you see things you don't wanna see.

Forget it, Johnny. I'm not taking what's left of your salary.

- Penny, that's my business. - Besides, it wouldn't be enough.

Oh, God, it's hopeless!

Don't say that.

There's gotta be a way to work it out.

Baby? Is that your name?

Well, you know what, Baby?

You don't know shit about my problems.

Robbie?!

- Look-- - No, Baby. Baby...

One of the counselors knows a doctor, a real M.D.,

We can get an appointment, but it costs $250.

But if it's Robbie, there's no problem. I know he has the money.

- I'm sure if you tell him-- - He knows.

Go back to your playpen... Baby.

Just where do you get off telling me what's right?

Well, you can't just leave her.

I didn't blow a summer hauling toasted bagels

just to bail out some little chick who probably balled every guy in the place.

A little precision, please, Baby.

Some people count... and some people don't.

Read it.

I think it's a book you'll enjoy,

but make sure you return it. I have notes in the margin.

You make me sick.

Stay away from me, stay away from my sister or I'll have you fired.

You're lining it up a little wrong, Marge.

- Daddy. - If your mother ever leaves me,

it'll be for Arnold Palmer.

- Daddy, someone's in trouble. - Besides your mother?

You're overcorrecting, Marge.

And you always told me if someone was in trouble, I should try to help.

Could you lend me $250?

Are you all right, Baby? Are you in some kind trouble?

No, no, it's not me. Could you lend it to me?

That's a lot of money, Baby. What's it for?

Baby, stand up straight.

I can't tell you.

It's hard for me to say that to you, but I can't.

You always said you could tell me anything.

I can't tell you this.

It's not illegal, is it?

No, Daddy.

That was a stupid thing to ask. Forgive me.

I'll have it for you before dinner.

Thanks, Daddy.

I'll tell him your grandmother died or something.

How many times have you told me never get mixed-up with them?

I know what I'm doing, Penny.

You listen to me. You've got to stop it now.

Look, um, I gotta run.

I got a lesson with the Kramers in three minutes,

and they'll kill each other if I'm not there.

Well, sure. You've gotta go.

I'll see ya.

Have you had many women?

Look, you gotta understand what it's like, Baby.

You come from the streets and suddenly you're up here,

And they really take care of themselves.

They wouldn't be doing this if they didn't care about me, right?"

No! No, that's not it.

I've been working with the staff kids

Way over your head here.

Now, I thought you always do the mambo, huh?

Why not dance this year's final dance...

to the pachanga?

Right.

Well, you're free to do the same tired number as last year if you want,

but next year we'll find another dance person

- who'll only be too happy-- - Sure, Neil. No problem.

We'll end the season with the pachanga.

Great idea.

Sometimes he's hard to talk to, but the ladies seem to like him.

See that he gives you the full half-hour you're paying him for, kid.

You tell him your ideas. He's a person, like everyone else.

You know how you feel when you see a patient and you think he's all right,

then you look at the X-rays and it's nothing like you thought?

What happened, Max?

It's exactly what it's like when you find out one of your staff's a thief.

Moe Pressman's wallet was stolen when he was playing pinochle last night.

It was in his jacket hanging on the back of his chair.

He had it at 1:30,

and when he checked again at quarter of 4:00...

it was missing.

Vivian thinks she remembers this dance kid, Johnny, walking by.

So we ask him, "You have an alibi for last night?"

He says he was alone in his room reading.

(Chuckles)

There are no books in Johnny's room!

There's been a mistake. I know Johnny didn't do it.

There's been similar thefts at the Sheldrake.

It's happened here before. Three other wallets.

- Well, I know he didn't do it. - Stay out of it, Baby.

- (Table dragging across floor) - (Max) Wait.

Don't put those tables together. Come on.

Daddy, I need your help.

I know Johnny didn't take Moe's wallet. I know.

- Oh? How do you know? - I can't tell you.

- Just please trust me, Daddy. - I'm sorry, Baby. I can't.

This Danish is pure protein.

Mr. Kellerman, look.

Uh...

Maybe Johnny didn't do it. Anyone could've taken it.

Maybe it was, uh--

You know, it could've been that little old couple, the Schumachers.

- I saw her with a couple of wallets. - Sylvia and Sidney?

Baby, you don't go around accusing innocent people.

Yeah, but I saw them! I even saw them at the Sheldrake.

Didn't you say something was stolen at the Sheldrake?

I got an eyewitness and the kid has no alibi.

Come on, Neil.

You'll learn what it's like to fire an employee.

No, Mr. Kellerman, wait a minute.

I know Johnny didn't take the wallet.

I know he didn't take it because he was in his room all night.

And the reason I know...

is because I was with him.

(Birds chirping)

I told you I was telling the truth, Daddy.

I'm sorry I lied to you.

But you lied too.

You told me everyone was alike and deserved a fair break.

But you meant everyone who is like you.

You told me you wanted me to change the world, to make it better.

But you meant by becoming a lawyer or an economist,

and marrying someone from Harvard.

I'm not proud of myself, but I'm in this family too,

and you can't keep giving me the silent treatment.

There are a lot of things about me that aren't what you thought.

But if you love me, you have to love all the things about me.

(Voice breaking) And I love you.

(Crying) I'm sorry I let you down. I'm so sorry, Daddy.

But you let me down too.

(Bird cawing)

(Door opens)

I have been lookin' for you all over.

They found the Schumachers.

They fingerprinted their water glasses,

they found out they were wanted in Arizona and Florida,

and they made a fortune here this summer.

So then it's all right.

I knew it would work out.

- I knew they'd have to apologize. - I'm out, Baby.

They fired you anyway because of me.

And if I leave quietly, I'll get my summer bonus.

So I did it for nothing.

I hurt my family, you lost your job anyway--

- I did it for nothing! - No, no, not for nothing, Baby.

Nobody has ever done anything like that for me before.

You were right, Johnny.

You can't win no matter what you do.

You listen to me.

I don't want to hear that from you. You can!

I used to think so.

(Indistinct chatter)

Dr. Houseman, can I, uh--

Look, I'm going anyway and I know what you must be thinking.

You don't know anything about me. Anything at all.

I know you want Baby to be like you.

You know, the kind of person that does things

that make other people look up to them.

Well, Dr. Houseman, Baby is like that. I mean, if you could just see--

Don't you tell me what to see.

I see someone in front of me who got his partner in trouble

and sent her off to some butcher,

while he moved on to an innocent, young girl like my daughter.

Yeah, I guess that's what you would see.
