Is Tommy taking you to the school prom?

He hasn't asked me yet.

He will.

I sure hope I found someone as nice as Tommy.

Oh, you'll meet him someday.

Well, I hope it's before the prom.

Are you in love with Tommy?

Well...

I

Never had a sweetheart

No lover's

Lane

For me

No moonlight rides

No firesides

No romance

By the sea

Oh, no

That's never happened

To me

I

Never had a sweetheart

Like lovers

I would see

When they passed by

I'd sit and sigh

Unhappy

As can be

To know

It's never happened

To me

Then one day

All of a sudden

My true love

Came my way

And I knew that our love

Was here to stay

Now lonely days are over

I'm happy

As can be

He came along

My life's a song

Because I know

That he's

The one

Wonderful, sweetheart

For

Me

Well, that's how I feel.

Oh, I wish I was in love.

I mean, I wish someone was in love with me.

Anyway, you better keep an eye on Tommy.

That new girl, Gloria, asked me who he was

when he said hello to me in the school corridor today,

and she's a girl who when she makes up here mind

to get something--

- Hello. - Oh, hi.

- Hi. - Hi, Tommy.

Well, I have to go.

I have to take care of my kid sister.

Remember what I told you about you know who.

The school paper's got these announcements today.

Have you seen them?

Are you going to enter it?

Why don't you enter, too?

Oh, I'd never win.

I think you would.

Hello, Dori.

Hello, Gloria.

Oh, Gloria, this is Tommy.

Tommy, Gloria.

Hi, Gloria.

Hello, Tommy.

Ah, see you later.

Who's she?

Her name's Gloria Barker.

She's new in town.

Well, I have to go now.

Aren't you going to walk me home?

Oh, sure.

Say, I almost forget to tell ya.

Be sure and watch Alan Freed's television program

tomorrow night.

I never miss it.

What's going to be on tomorrow night?

A surprise.

What kind of a surprise?

Just watch it and see.

I'll ask Arabella to come over my house.

We'll see it together.

Hello, Gloria.

God, what a day I've had.

I went to the dress shop this morning

to order a new evening dress for the dance.

You're going to wear an evening dress to the dance?

Strapless, blue, strapless, blue.

A friend of yours told me it his favorite color.

Well, so long.

Gosh, if she's going to get one,

I'm going to get one, too.

I think you oughta have one.

I think you oughta have all the things your heart needs,

and I wish I could give them to ya.

I can't give ya diamonds

And I can't give ya pearls

I can't give ya palaces

With princes, dukes and earls

But when it comes to love

You'll have the things your heart needs

You'll lips who kiss you sweetly

And arms to hold you tight

All my thoughts will be of you

Each morning, noon and night

For when it comes to love

You'll have the things you heart needs

Ooh, I can't give you

Satins or sables

Or things that you may have been dreaming of

But baby what good are those satins

And those sables

Unless

You've heart full of love

You'll have deep devotion

A love that's just for you

Tenderness and kindness

And the heart that's always true

For when it comes to love

You'll have the things

You'll have the things

Your heart needs

Hello?

It's for me.

Hello, Arabella.

What are you doing this beautiful Saturday afternoon?

My mother's going shopping,

and I have to take care of my little sister,

so I'm taking her to the movies.

You wanna go?

Gosh, I'd like to, but

I haven't got any M-O-N-E-Y.

What?

I used up my allowance for this week.

Oh, and I only have enough for me and the B-R-A-T.

Mm, ow.

I tell ya what,

I'll meet you on the terrace

at the country club in half an hour.

I have a plan, goodbye.

Father, give me a dollar, quick.

I have to go somewhere.

Okay, where do you have to go?

- To the movies. - Oh.

Just a minute, young lady.

Stay right there.

You mean to say you haven't

any money left from your allowance?

I didn't mean to tell you.

I just found out anyway.

I thought you were gonna keep a budget?

I did, but it didn't stay kept.

May I see it?

Uh-huh, ice cream, candy,

magazines, jukebox, forty cents,

E.P., sixty cents.

E.P., what's that?

Elvis Presley.

I still say, what's that?

Father, you're sweet

but so square.

I played Elvis Presley records on the jukebox.

You already have an item down here

for playing the jukebox.

Why don't you put 'em both together?

Oh, it would look like I spent too much money

for just one thing.

That is dishonest.

Why, why in business, that's like keeping two sets of books.

Is that bad?

Bad, it's illegal.

They put men in jail for that.

Oh, well, I have to go meet Arabella now.

Thanks for the movie money.

Ah, you're welcome.

Now wait a minute.

Wait a minute, I didn't give...

Louise?

Louise?

What's the matter?

It's that daughter of yours.

Louise, there hasn't been one week

that she hasn't run out of her allowance.

She has no idea of the value of money.

Look at this, look, wait.

Look, bills, bills, nothing but bills.

Bills for clothes, bills for hats,

bills for all sorts of things.

Louise, we've gotta teach that girl

that money doesn't grow on fathers.

Now, first thing Monday morning,

I'm gonna go right down,

and cancel everyone of our charge accounts.

But supposing she needs some new clothes?

Nope, Dori's not gonna get one new thing.

- Hi. - Hi, Dori.

Hi, baby.

Hello.

Where you waiting long?

Just a few minutes.

Ready to go?

I am, but this one...

Don't you wanna go to the movies?

No.

You wanna a little doll?

- No. - Don't you want

a storybook? No.

- Do you want blocks? - No.

Well then, what do you want?

I know what she wants, come on.

Don't want a dolly

A storybook or blocks

Baby's only happy

Yo gang, you all remember Maybellene.

About the young man with the guitar

who couldn't catch her with his car?

Well, here is to tell us all about it

with a brand new automobile,

Chuck Berry and You Can't Catch Me.

I bought a brand new air-mobile

It's custom made, was a Flight De Ville

With a powerful motor and some hideaway wings

Push in on the button and you can hear her sing

Now you can't catch me

Baby, you can't catch me

'Cause if you get too close

You know I'm gone like a cool breeze

New Jersey Turnpike in the wee, wee hours

I was rollin' slowly 'cause of drizzlin' showers

Here come a flat-top, he was movin' up with me

Then come wavin' goodbye

In a little ole souped-up jitney

I put my foot in my tank and I began to roll

Moanin' siren, twas the state patrol

So I let out my wings and then I blew my horn

Bye, bye New Jersey, I've become airborne

Now you can't catch me

Baby, you can't catch me

'Cause if you get too close

You know I'm gone like a cool breeze

Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night

Wasn't a gray cloud floatin' in sight

Big full moon shinin' up above

Cuddle up honey, be my love

Sweetest little thing I've ever seen

I'm gonna name you Maybellene

Flyin' on the beam, set on flight control

Radio tuned to rock'n roll

Two, three hours done passed us by

Five to two dropped to 5:05

Fuel consumption way too fast

Let's get on home before we run out of gas

Now you can't catch me

No baby, you can't catch me

'Cause if you get too close

You know I'm gone like a cool breeze

Now gang, here's America's

Thanks to you

My life was once a wilderness

The way I was lonely and blue

But I found true happiness

Thanks to you

I bet I know what you're thinking.

Hmm, now that he's won the contest...

That Gloria will want him more than ever.

And she's going to wear an evening dress to the dance.

A blue evening dress.

And strapless.

There's just one thing to do.

I'll go down to the dress shop tomorrow and get one, too.

But please, Miss Silky.

Now girls, you'll just have to wait,

and I'll take care of you one at a time.

I have a customer in the fitting room right now,

and I'll be out as soon as I'm finished with her.

Come along.

You're next, aren't you?

Uh-huh.

It seems like everybody wants an evening dress

since they know that Gloria was going to get one.

Ah, I wish I had someone to wear an evening dress for.

Oh, you'll meet him someday.

Just like that, you'll see.

I don't know.

Sometimes I think I'll never meet him.

Pardon me, could you tell me where the proprietress is?

Miss Silky's in the back.

That's him.

I know that's him.

Who?

My dream man.

His name is Melville.

Melville.

He's in my French class.

- He is? - Uh-huh.

And I had to take Spanish.

Oh, Melville, I'd like you to meet Arabella.

Arabella, Melville.

Pleased to meet you.

Why didn't you say something?

He's beautiful.

Now Dori, what can I do for you?

I'd like to get an evening dress.

There's a nice one in the window for $30.00.

The blue one.

And are you going to pay for it now?

Why, no, I'm going to charge it like I always do.

And haven't you heard?

What?

Your father closed your charge account this morning.

He did?

I'm sorry.

Gosh.

Are the dishes done already?

- Mm-hmm. - Mm-hmm.

Dori helped me.

Dori did?

That's strange.

I thought so, too.

She's taking an awfully long time.

I hope she's doing them right.

Dori doing the dishes?

Comfy?

Oh, sure.

Dori?

Yes, Father?

Is there something on your mind?

As a matter of fact, there is.

You see, Father, I went to the dress shop today,

and Miss Silky told me that we didn't have

a charge account there anymore and,

well I've just have to get an evening dress for the prom.

An evening dress, huh?

I saw a beautiful one there for only $30.00.

Only $30.00?

Do you realize, young lady,

how difficult it is to earn $30.00?

I know, but I need this dress so badly.

Well, when is this dance of yours?

Two weeks from Saturday.

When's the latest you can order the dress?

Oh, about three days before the dance, why?

Well, I'll tell ya what I'm gonna do with ya.

Now the dress is $30.00, huh?

Alright, I'll give $15.00,

if you earn the other 15.

Oh.

Maybe when you find out how difficult it is to earn money,

then you'll spend it a little less freely.

Where am I going to get $15.00?

Well, Dori Graham, how are you?

Very well, thank you, Mr. Bimble.

Ah, sit down.

Well now Dori, how can I help you?

I'd like to borrow some money.

What?

Well, isn't that what banks are for?

Well, yes, true, but we don't lend money

without business references, collateral.

What's collateral?

Collateral, well that's something that people pledge

that's worth as much as the amount of money we lend them.

When someone puts money in your bank,

what do you do with it?

Well, I don't really know.

You mean to tell me, Mr. Bimble,

that you take people's money

and don't know what you do with it?

Well, of course I know what we do with it.

What I mean there is that I don't know

where any particular deposit goes.

You mean, the deposits are all mixed up?

No, no, no.

They're kept in order by bookkeeping.

Double-entry bookkeeping.

You keep two sets of books?

I do not keep two sets, I...

Oh, Dori Graham, let--

When depositors put money in your bank,

where do you get the money to pay in interest?

Well, ah, the bank makes its money

by giving loans to responsible people who have collateral,

and charging interest on the loans.

How much interest do you charge?

6%.

That's awfully high, isn't it?

6% interest is standard.

- It is? - Yes.

Seems awfully high to me.

Suppose some person came along,

and charged less interest than you do.

Well, I'd bet pretty soon,

they'd take all your business away from you, wouldn't he?

Mr. Bimble, you've given me something

more valuable than money.

You've given me knowledge.

Thank you, Mr. Bimble.

Arabella, how would you like to be wallowing...

Arabella, how would you like to be wallowing in money?

Huh?

I just thought of the most wonderful way

to make money to pay for my evening dress.

I'm going to be a banker.

You?

Sure, I'm going to lend money and get interest on it.

Where will you get the money?

That's where you can help me.

All I've got in the world is $15.00,

and that's in Mr. Bimble's bank.

Oh, but that's terrible.

You'll have to get it out right away.

They're dishonest.

How do ya know?

They keep two sets of books

and that's a government offense.

My father told me so.

Why they can close the bank any minute,

and take them all off to jail.

Gosh, I'd better get my money out.

Then you can put it in my bank.

Oh, it will earn scads of interest.

Now, you go down and get your money

out of Mr. Bimble's bank right away.

But I have to go to class.

Which would you rather be, ignorant or bankrupt?

That's a good question.

C'mon.

What's the matter?

Oh, it's nothing.

I saw Melville again.

He spoke to me.

And?

I couldn't think of anything to say back.

Well if he spoke to you, he must be interested.

Maybe next time you'll think of something to say.

I sure hope so.

Hey, kids, listen to me.

Knock it off.

Phil, go get the jukebox.

I got great news for ya.

After the television show,

I asked Alan Freed if he'd come down to our prom.

I just talked to Alan on the phone,

he's comin' and he's bring a whole show.

So, we're gonna rock tonight.

Hello, Dori.

Oh, hello, Gloria.

I've just picked up my new evening dress.

Oh.

Have you gotten yours yet?

Well, I haven't had time yet but I will.

By the way, Gloria, do you need money?

I always need money.

Then I'm the one who can lend it to you.

I've just gone into the banking business.

What?

I'm lending money.

$1.00 until next allowance day to anyone who needs it.

What's your rate of interest?

Well, the bank charges as high as 6%,

but I'm only charging one.

Just 1%?

If I lend you a dollar,

you pay it back to me plus another dollar interest.

Another dollar interest?

It's a bargain when you think

the banks are charging as much as 6%.

Are you sure you're charging $1.00 interest on the dollar?

1- of a dollar is a dollar, isn't it?

Oh, sure, sure.

Tell me, Dori, have you lent much money yet?

You're the first person I've asked.

Mm-hmm, where'd you get the money to lend?

From Arabella.

She's my depositor.

How much did she deposit?

$15.00.

Dori, instead of trying to find a lot

of little $1.00 customers,

how would you like to lend the whole 15 to just one person?

Who?

Me, with $15.00 more,

I could take this tacky ole evening dress

back to the dress shop.

I saw a much smarter one there for $45.00.

It just came in.

If you lend me the 15 to buy it, I'll pay ya back

plus another 15 for interest.

You'll make $15.00 fast.

When will you pay it back?

My birthday's next week.

I'm expecting a couple of checks.

I'll pay ya back then.

Will you give me collateral?

What kind of collateral?

Oh, I don't know.

It has to be something worth at least $30.00.

Tell you what, I'll pledge my new dress.

The one I'm going to get.

Alright, you write me a note saying,

that if you don't pay me back, I can have the dress.

Then I'll lend you the $15.00.

It's a deal.

Tommy, can I ask you something?

- Sure. - Come here.

Tommy, what do you think the school

would think of a girl who took advantage

of one of her own classmates?

Well, I guess they wouldn't like here very much.

Suppose this girl learned that one of her classmates

needed money very badly,

and she lent it to her?

Well that's not taking advantage.

That's pretty nice.

But what if she lent it to her

on condition that she pay it back double?

Double?

Who'd do a thing like that?

Dori.

Dori?

I don't believe it.

You can ask her.

But why?

She was just trying to make some money for herself.

Who told you all this?

I'm the one she lent the money to.

That's terrible.

Would be even more terrible

if the whole school found out about it.

Of course, I might be persuaded not to tell anyone about it.

What do you mean?

Well, if you took me to the prom instead of Dori,

I might just possibly forget the whole thing.

But I already asked Dori.

You can always say you forget you'd asked me first.

I can't do that.

Would you rather the whole school

knew about what Dori tried to do to me?

Nobody would talk to her for months.

Dori, wait a minute.

Dori, I got wonderful news.

- What is it? - It's Melville.

He's taking me to the prom.

He asked me just five minutes ago.

Oh, that's wonderful.

This is my big chance.

That's why I need the $15.00 I gave you.

Oh, no.

I've got to get a permed, a manicure,

and maybe even a facial, so give me back the money.

I've already loaned it out.

Then get it back.

A depositor has the right to get her money back

when she wants it, doesn't she?

Well, yes, but--

Well this is an emergency.

Arabella, I just can't.

Dori Graham, if you don't give me back my money

by tomorrow, I'll, I'll never speak to you again.

Arabella?

Gloria, come here.

Gloria, I wanna talk to you.

Well?

It's about that money you borrowed.

Your birthday was last week,

and you still haven't paid it back to me.

Oh, that, you really didn't think

I was going to pay it back, did you?

Besides, my birthday isn't until five months from now.

But you told me that--

And you told me you wanted $1.00 interest

on every dollar you lent me.

For your information, that's not 1% interest, that's 100%.

It is?

If you knew any arithmetic,

you'd know that 1% of a dollar is .01 not $1.00.

Why I could send you to jail for extortion.

Well, what about the $15.00?

You'll return that to me, won't you?

In my own good time.

Maybe a dollar a week.

But I need the money now.

Oh, isn't that too bad.

Well, I've gotta study for my next class,

and, uh, you'd better brush up on your arithmetic.

Dori?

Oh.

Hello, Tommy.

What's the matter?

Oh, nothing.

Have you been talking to Gloria?

Did she tell you?

Tell me what?

That's she going to the prom with me.

What?

I asked her weeks ago,

and I'd thought she'd forgotten about it.

Gloria

and you?

Oh, Tommy.

Poor little bird.

I know just how you feel.

Little blue wren

I know why

Little blue wren

Why you cry

Nobody knows

Nobody cares

That your love has flown away

Little blue wren

In the sky

Little blue wren

Way up high

Love didn't stay

It flew away

Now your heart's

No longer gay

With your head

Upon your shoulder

You just cry

And hope that he

Will return

Before you're older

And I know 'cause it happened to me

So little blue wren

In a tree

Little blue wren

Wait and see

Some day he'll know

You love him so

And then he'll

Come back again

And you'll

No more be

A little

Blue

Wren

Well, what's the matter now?

Oh, nothing.

Father, if a person lends another person money,

and the other person refuses to pay,

can that person do anything to the other person?

Well, that depends.

Did the other person give the person

any collateral for the loan?

Yeah, she did.

Well, then the person can foreclose.

Foreclose?

Uh-huh, assume ownership of the collateral

in lieu of the unpaid loan.

Assume ownership, really?

It's the law.

Hey, where are you going, it's almost dinner time?

Tell Mother not to wait, I'll be back later.

But it's very simple, Miss Silky.

I just wanna foreclose on a collateral dress.

But I don't understand?

Is this some kind of joke?

It's absolutely serious.

Would you mind waiting just a minute?

Miss Silky, is my dress almost ready?

Just a minute.

Here it is.

Oh.

It's so beautiful.

I can't wait to see what it looks like on me.

Dori?

Thank you for calling me, Miss Silky.

Father, what are you doing here?

This is a ladies shop.

Miss Silky called me,

and told me she'd keep you here

until I could get here.

Now what's this all about?

Yeah, that's what I wanna know.

I tried to tell you on the phone, Mr. Barker.

Dori says your daughter borrowed some money from her

and refused to pay it back,

and now she's claiming this dress.

I'm just foreclosing on the collateral.

You mean, Gloria gave you this dress

as collateral for a loan?

Why did you have to borrow money?

Well, I didn't really like the $30.00 dress you bought me,

and I happened to see this beautiful dress for $45.00,

and I knew you wouldn't give me anymore money, so--

So you borrowed it from my daughter,

but where did Dori get it to lend?

She borrowed it form Arabella.

No, I didn't.

Arabella was my depositor.

But I don't have to pay the money back

because Dori charged me 100% interest

when she gave me the money,

and that's against the law.

100% interest?

Dori.

I made a mistake, Father.

I thought I was charging 1%.

Never was very good at arithmetic

but she knew it, and she didn't tell me.

Besides, you said the dress

belonged to me as collateral.

Well, yes, it does legally.

Now wait just a minute.

I paid $30.00 for that dress.

And I paid another $15.00.

I'm not going to let you take

a $45.00 dress for a $15.00 loan.

Well, there's only one other thing to do.

Pay Dori the money that Gloria borrowed from her,

and forget the whole the thing.

I'm not going to pay Gloria's debt.

Well, I admit, you got me stumped.

Do you have any other suggestions?

- No. - Do you?

No.

I have a suggestion.

Mr. Barker just wants his $30.00.

Right.

Father, here's a chance for you to make a real bargain.

All you have to do is give Mr. Barker his $30.00,

and you get a $45.00 dollar dress for only $30.00.

Yeah, sounds good.

Now, wait a minute, young lady.

Our agreement was that I pay $15.00,

and you earn the other 15.

Yes, but I'm saving you $15.00 at the price of the dress.

Now that's the same as if I earned $15.00, isn't it?

Now, just do as I say.

First, give Gloria's father his money back.

Now, the dress is mine.

But you still have to give Arabella her $15.00.

How do you think you'll get around that?

Oh, that's simple.

Here, Miss Silky, I'd like to turn this $45.00 dress in

for the $30.00 dress and a $15.00 refund.

Now you can get the dress for me.

It's only $15.00 more.

After all the trouble you've caused?

Trying to take advantage of Dori?

Sneaking behind my back to buy a dress that costs more?

Nothing doing, Gloria.

I don't buy any dress for you.

Not even a $30.00 one?

Sorry, this is the last one left.

A blue strapless dress.

Tommy's favorite color.

She's taking my dress.

Come on, we're going home.

Oh.

Now let me see.

Dori saved me $15.00,

so that's the same as earning $15.00.

Then she took the dress,

she exchanged the $45.00 dress for the $30.00 dress--

Here's your refund, Dori.

Come in in the morning, and we'll fit the dress.

Thank you, Miss Silky.

We'd better go home, Father.

Dinner's probably still waiting.

Father, are you alright?

Oh, yeah, yeah, sure.

Oh, goodnight, Miss Silky.
