1
00:02:46,791 --> 00:02:49,501
See, I didn't hurt him.
2
00:02:54,048 --> 00:02:55,924
Boy: All right!
Come on!
3
00:02:56,092 --> 00:02:58,385
Come on, Willy!
4
00:02:58,553 --> 00:02:59,803
Girl: Hey! Come on.
5
00:02:59,971 --> 00:03:02,556
Second girl: Hey,
you guys, stop it!
6
00:03:09,105 --> 00:03:11,565
Hey, look
who's coming.
7
00:03:11,733 --> 00:03:14,067
Get out of here.
8
00:03:14,235 --> 00:03:15,068
Did you bring them?
9
00:03:15,236 --> 00:03:16,028
I brought two.
10
00:03:16,196 --> 00:03:17,487
Give me them.
I'll scare him good.
11
00:03:17,655 --> 00:03:18,447
And get us sent home?
12
00:03:18,615 --> 00:03:20,699
Nah, you fret
too much.
13
00:03:20,867 --> 00:03:22,242
All right.
14
00:03:27,665 --> 00:03:29,041
Hey, Elmer.
15
00:03:29,209 --> 00:03:30,000
Elmer.
16
00:03:30,168 --> 00:03:31,168
Open your mouth
and close your eyes,
17
00:03:31,336 --> 00:03:33,378
then I'll give you
something to make you wise.
18
00:03:35,798 --> 00:03:37,925
Ha ha! Oh, what an idiot!
19
00:03:38,092 --> 00:03:39,760
Ha ha ha ha ha!
20
00:03:39,928 --> 00:03:41,887
That's awful!
21
00:03:42,055 --> 00:03:44,306
It's just a worm.
22
00:03:44,474 --> 00:03:46,767
That's what's awful!
23
00:03:46,935 --> 00:03:48,852
Worms ain't bad.
24
00:03:49,020 --> 00:03:52,522
They're good for your
garden, and fish like them.
25
00:03:52,690 --> 00:03:54,024
Good for you,
huh, Elmer?
26
00:03:54,192 --> 00:03:55,108
You're a good guy,
Elmer.
27
00:03:55,276 --> 00:03:56,526
Have a seat. Ha!
28
00:03:56,694 --> 00:03:58,028
Let's go!
29
00:04:05,870 --> 00:04:06,954
They're dirty mean.
30
00:04:07,121 --> 00:04:09,539
If I were you, I'd give
them both black eyes.
31
00:04:09,707 --> 00:04:13,043
Oh, I ain't much
for hurting anybody.
32
00:04:13,211 --> 00:04:14,878
It ain't Christian-like.
33
00:04:15,046 --> 00:04:17,756
Oh, I'd do unto them!
34
00:04:17,924 --> 00:04:20,509
Well... Well,
they're... they're my friends.
35
00:04:20,677 --> 00:04:23,720
They wouldn't do it if
they weren't my friends.
36
00:04:25,056 --> 00:04:27,683
Old Elmer... dumbest
kid in walnut grove.
37
00:04:27,850 --> 00:04:29,184
Dumbest kid
in the whole world.
38
00:04:29,352 --> 00:04:32,062
Can't even find
his own elbow.
39
00:04:36,067 --> 00:04:38,193
Oh, class...
Just a reminder
40
00:04:38,361 --> 00:04:39,653
before we have
our spelling lesson.
41
00:04:39,821 --> 00:04:41,530
This afternoon in
history civics class,
42
00:04:41,698 --> 00:04:43,782
we'll be holding nominations
for class president.
43
00:04:45,285 --> 00:04:46,702
Miss beadle:
Yes, Kenny?
44
00:04:46,869 --> 00:04:49,079
Girls don't get to vote, do they?
Women can't.
45
00:04:49,247 --> 00:04:50,747
Well, we sure do!
46
00:04:50,915 --> 00:04:54,126
Miss beadle: Class,
just a minute!
47
00:04:54,294 --> 00:04:57,045
Kenneth, the women have won
the right to vote in Wyoming.
48
00:04:57,213 --> 00:04:59,673
So, the girls will vote
in our class election.
49
00:05:01,009 --> 00:05:02,009
And we'll win!
50
00:05:02,176 --> 00:05:04,136
There are more
girls than boys.
51
00:05:07,432 --> 00:05:09,391
Class! That's quite
enough talking!
52
00:05:09,559 --> 00:05:11,476
Let's get on with
our spelling lesson.
53
00:05:19,610 --> 00:05:20,694
It ain't fair!
54
00:05:20,862 --> 00:05:22,571
A girl can't be president
of the United States,
55
00:05:22,739 --> 00:05:24,781
she shouldn't be allowed to
be president of the class.
56
00:05:24,949 --> 00:05:26,283
Oh, never mind
what's fair.
57
00:05:26,451 --> 00:05:28,535
We got to figure out a way to
beat the girls in the election.
58
00:05:28,703 --> 00:05:31,246
You don't even know
who they'll nominate.
59
00:05:31,414 --> 00:05:35,500
I can guess.
Look who's running for her pa's store.
60
00:05:41,799 --> 00:05:44,885
Yeah, she's always just
grabbing for everything.
61
00:05:45,053 --> 00:05:46,803
There's still more of
them than there are us.
62
00:05:46,971 --> 00:05:49,222
They'll stomp us good.
63
00:05:49,390 --> 00:05:50,265
I got an idea.
64
00:05:50,433 --> 00:05:52,100
Come on.
We're gonna need help.
65
00:05:52,268 --> 00:05:53,643
Come on.
66
00:06:06,741 --> 00:06:09,493
All right. There, darling.
Now, how's that?
67
00:06:09,660 --> 00:06:10,994
I need sour balls.
68
00:06:11,162 --> 00:06:13,497
Kate and Jenny are
partial to sour balls.
69
00:06:13,664 --> 00:06:14,331
Oh.
70
00:06:14,499 --> 00:06:16,541
I want some
sour balls, too...
71
00:06:16,709 --> 00:06:17,959
And some
licorice...
72
00:06:18,127 --> 00:06:21,254
Willie, we know that you're
going to vote for your sister.
73
00:06:21,422 --> 00:06:23,882
Not if I don't get
some sour balls...
74
00:06:24,050 --> 00:06:26,510
Oh, very well.
75
00:06:26,677 --> 00:06:28,595
And some licorice sticks.
76
00:06:28,763 --> 00:06:30,514
All right!
77
00:06:30,681 --> 00:06:31,848
Willie!
78
00:06:32,016 --> 00:06:34,226
It's all right,
nels.
79
00:06:34,394 --> 00:06:35,477
He has
my permission.
80
00:06:35,645 --> 00:06:38,146
And a mouthful of rotten
teeth to go along with it.
81
00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:40,357
All right, children,
go on back to school.
82
00:06:40,525 --> 00:06:42,359
Hurry up. Here,
go on. Scat.
83
00:06:43,444 --> 00:06:46,363
You know what the dentist
in mankato said,
84
00:06:46,531 --> 00:06:48,448
and I paid dearly
for the words.
85
00:06:48,616 --> 00:06:50,450
Nels,
this is different.
86
00:06:50,618 --> 00:06:52,244
This is just
good politics.
87
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:53,537
What?
88
00:06:53,704 --> 00:06:56,248
Well, your daughter
is going to be
89
00:06:56,416 --> 00:06:58,875
elected president of the school.
Ha ha!
90
00:06:59,043 --> 00:07:02,337
Now I have to see
to the roast.
91
00:07:02,505 --> 00:07:04,881
Lettin' 'em have candy
all the time.
92
00:07:05,049 --> 00:07:06,716
When they have
all theirs pulled,
93
00:07:06,884 --> 00:07:08,635
we'll just let them
borrow your teeth.
94
00:07:08,803 --> 00:07:11,012
What did you say, nels?
95
00:07:11,180 --> 00:07:13,306
Oh, I just said
that, uh...
96
00:07:13,474 --> 00:07:17,269
That roast...
I just bet that's a good piece of beef.
97
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:41,334
All right, class. Time
for the nomination.
98
00:07:44,213 --> 00:07:47,257
Now, we're going to hold our election
just like the national election...
99
00:07:47,425 --> 00:07:50,760
The one that gave us rutherford b.
Hayes for our new president...
100
00:07:50,928 --> 00:07:52,179
And we start
with nominations,
101
00:07:52,346 --> 00:07:55,390
and then the candidates will
have 2 weeks to campaign,
102
00:07:55,558 --> 00:07:57,100
and then we'll have
our election.
103
00:07:57,268 --> 00:07:59,227
I'm going to vote
democrat.
104
00:07:59,395 --> 00:08:00,604
Miss beadle: Kenneth.
105
00:08:00,771 --> 00:08:03,315
There'll be no political
party, only candidates.
106
00:08:03,483 --> 00:08:04,858
And the girls will win.
107
00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:09,863
Class! You will speak
only with permission,
108
00:08:10,031 --> 00:08:11,823
or we'll have no election.
109
00:08:16,996 --> 00:08:18,663
All right,
that's better.
110
00:08:20,041 --> 00:08:26,505
All right, the floor is
now open for nominations.
111
00:08:26,672 --> 00:08:28,924
I nomma...
Nomma...
112
00:08:30,092 --> 00:08:31,134
"nominate."
113
00:08:31,302 --> 00:08:32,677
Yeah.
114
00:08:32,845 --> 00:08:34,304
My sister wants
to be president.
115
00:08:34,472 --> 00:08:38,350
All right. Does anyone
second the motion?
116
00:08:38,518 --> 00:08:44,856
Psst!
117
00:08:45,024 --> 00:08:47,067
I second the nomination.
118
00:08:48,778 --> 00:08:50,195
Fine.
119
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:53,448
Nellie.
120
00:08:53,616 --> 00:08:56,117
Nellie: Miss beadle?
121
00:08:56,285 --> 00:08:57,160
Yes, Nellie.
122
00:08:57,328 --> 00:08:59,829
I move that the
nominations be closed.
123
00:08:59,997 --> 00:09:02,749
Students: You can't do that!
124
00:09:04,252 --> 00:09:07,003
Uh, Nellie, we need more than
one candidate for an election.
125
00:09:07,171 --> 00:09:08,213
See?
126
00:09:08,381 --> 00:09:10,382
Do we have any
other nominations?
127
00:09:14,428 --> 00:09:15,220
Yes, Jim.
128
00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:17,180
I nominate
Mary Ingalls.
129
00:09:20,434 --> 00:09:23,103
Uh, does anyone second
the motion? Steve.
130
00:09:23,271 --> 00:09:25,313
I second
the nomination.
131
00:09:25,481 --> 00:09:26,982
Fine.
132
00:09:30,444 --> 00:09:32,862
Do we have
any other nominations?
133
00:09:33,030 --> 00:09:35,532
I got one,
miss beadle.
134
00:09:35,700 --> 00:09:37,284
Elmer dobkins!
135
00:09:38,452 --> 00:09:39,911
Boy: Yeah, I second it.
136
00:09:40,079 --> 00:09:41,621
Good old Elmer
for president.
137
00:09:41,789 --> 00:09:44,165
We need one boy to run
against the girls.
138
00:09:47,461 --> 00:09:49,045
Why didn't you
nominate me faster?
139
00:09:49,213 --> 00:09:52,716
I forgot, and anyways,
you didn't give me enough gumdrops.
140
00:09:52,883 --> 00:09:54,092
That's ok.
I can get more.
141
00:09:54,260 --> 00:09:55,510
Jim, thanks for
nominating me.
142
00:09:55,678 --> 00:09:56,595
Oh, that's all right.
143
00:09:56,762 --> 00:09:59,055
It was just nice,
you being a boy and all.
144
00:09:59,223 --> 00:10:00,932
Just trying to be fair.
145
00:10:01,100 --> 00:10:03,393
Well, thanks.
See ya!
146
00:10:03,561 --> 00:10:04,853
See ya!
147
00:10:12,903 --> 00:10:14,321
All right.
148
00:10:14,488 --> 00:10:16,364
"Just trying to be
fair." That's a good one!
149
00:10:16,532 --> 00:10:17,741
Dumb Elmer
for president.
150
00:10:17,908 --> 00:10:19,242
It's got to be the funniest
thing that ever happened.
151
00:10:19,410 --> 00:10:20,660
It'll be funnier
when he wins.
152
00:10:20,828 --> 00:10:22,370
Yeah, it'll prove that
a boy don't know nothing
153
00:10:22,538 --> 00:10:23,413
is better than
the smartest girl.
154
00:10:23,581 --> 00:10:25,415
We can't lose. With
the 2 girls running,
155
00:10:25,583 --> 00:10:26,750
they'll split
the girls' votes,
156
00:10:26,917 --> 00:10:28,126
and all the boys
will vote for Elmer.
157
00:10:28,294 --> 00:10:29,252
Hey, that's right.
158
00:10:29,420 --> 00:10:30,754
Ah, that's good.
159
00:10:30,921 --> 00:10:33,089
Come on, let's go.
160
00:10:35,885 --> 00:10:37,135
Look.
161
00:10:38,971 --> 00:10:41,139
No. You misspelled it.
162
00:10:41,307 --> 00:10:42,599
Kids won't care.
163
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:43,600
Well, I do.
164
00:10:43,768 --> 00:10:46,019
Besides, I'm not
really interested.
165
00:10:46,187 --> 00:10:47,103
Hey, everybody.
166
00:10:47,271 --> 00:10:48,480
Hello. Pa, you'll never guess!
167
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:51,191
Uh, let me see. You got
100 on an arithmetic test?
168
00:10:51,359 --> 00:10:52,400
Laura: Mm-mmm.
169
00:10:52,568 --> 00:10:54,277
You got a zero on
an arithmetic test?
170
00:10:54,445 --> 00:10:55,779
No.
171
00:10:55,946 --> 00:10:58,740
Uh, your sister Mary got
nominated for class president?
172
00:10:58,908 --> 00:10:59,949
You peeked.
173
00:11:00,117 --> 00:11:01,785
No, I didn't.
I saw nels in the mercantile.
174
00:11:01,952 --> 00:11:02,786
He told me.
175
00:11:02,953 --> 00:11:04,287
Congratulations,
madam president.
176
00:11:04,455 --> 00:11:05,955
Mary: Thanks,
but I think you should
177
00:11:06,123 --> 00:11:08,208
save the congratulations
for Nellie.
178
00:11:08,376 --> 00:11:10,460
No, I'm going to
manage your campaign.
179
00:11:10,628 --> 00:11:11,795
She's going to win.
180
00:11:11,962 --> 00:11:14,464
I vote for Mary.
181
00:11:14,632 --> 00:11:15,882
There, you see?
182
00:11:16,050 --> 00:11:17,467
I guarantee you,
Carrie's not the only one
183
00:11:17,635 --> 00:11:19,094
who's going
to vote for you.
184
00:11:19,261 --> 00:11:21,596
Mary: None of the girls will
after they go to Nellie's party.
185
00:11:21,764 --> 00:11:23,098
What party's that?
186
00:11:23,265 --> 00:11:26,017
Nellie invited all the girls
to her house, except us,
187
00:11:26,185 --> 00:11:27,686
for ice cream
and cake tomorrow.
188
00:11:27,853 --> 00:11:29,688
Well, I tell you,
you just fight fire with fire.
189
00:11:29,855 --> 00:11:31,147
Have a party
of your own.
190
00:11:31,315 --> 00:11:33,692
That's just what we're going to do...
Next Saturday.
191
00:11:33,859 --> 00:11:35,902
Two days before
the election...
192
00:11:36,070 --> 00:11:38,488
Good. We'll have roasting
ears and popcorn.
193
00:11:38,656 --> 00:11:41,991
And some cider.
How does that sound, huh?
194
00:11:42,159 --> 00:11:45,995
There.
All finished.
195
00:11:46,163 --> 00:11:47,330
Laura: How's it look?
196
00:11:47,498 --> 00:11:50,041
Well, let me take
a look here.
197
00:11:50,209 --> 00:11:53,169
Hmm, I couldn't have
done a better job myself.
198
00:11:53,337 --> 00:11:55,171
You see that, ma?
199
00:11:55,339 --> 00:11:56,798
Charles, I didn't think
you'd encourage the girls
200
00:11:56,966 --> 00:11:58,174
to put up signs
like that.
201
00:11:58,342 --> 00:12:00,051
It's just like the
election ones in the paper.
202
00:12:00,219 --> 00:12:02,303
Yeah, but your
mother is right.
203
00:12:02,471 --> 00:12:04,055
I tell you
what you do.
204
00:12:04,223 --> 00:12:06,141
Just make Nellie's
curls a lot longer
205
00:12:06,308 --> 00:12:08,143
and give her some
licorice whips.
206
00:12:16,193 --> 00:12:17,485
Come on, boy.
207
00:12:17,653 --> 00:12:20,739
Easy now.
208
00:12:20,906 --> 00:12:22,991
Easy.
209
00:12:23,159 --> 00:12:25,034
There we go.
210
00:12:25,202 --> 00:12:28,663
It's all right.
I'm not going to hurt you.
211
00:12:35,087 --> 00:12:37,714
Let's see your neck.
212
00:12:49,894 --> 00:12:50,977
Hi.
213
00:12:51,145 --> 00:12:54,105
His neck's
almost better, pa.
214
00:12:54,273 --> 00:12:56,065
I can see that.
215
00:12:57,568 --> 00:12:59,319
Do you think if I put him
back with the other chickens
216
00:12:59,487 --> 00:13:00,987
they'll do it again?
217
00:13:02,573 --> 00:13:04,532
Well, they just might.
218
00:13:07,036 --> 00:13:10,246
Why? It's not
just one chicken.
219
00:13:10,414 --> 00:13:13,249
But it's the whole flock
a-pecking at him.
220
00:13:13,417 --> 00:13:15,418
Well, it's their nature.
221
00:13:15,586 --> 00:13:16,795
Plain wicked.
222
00:13:16,962 --> 00:13:19,422
They almost pecked
his eye out.
223
00:13:24,053 --> 00:13:25,345
Well...
224
00:13:25,513 --> 00:13:27,931
Well,
he looks fine now.
225
00:13:28,098 --> 00:13:31,601
Neck's all healed,
too.
226
00:13:41,904 --> 00:13:44,531
How's that sick squirrel
of yours doing?
227
00:13:44,698 --> 00:13:48,827
Good. His leg is
almost like new.
228
00:13:48,994 --> 00:13:51,287
He even eats
out of my hand.
229
00:13:53,123 --> 00:13:54,332
Yeah.
230
00:13:56,752 --> 00:13:58,711
It's time you came in,
got washed up.
231
00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:00,213
Supper's almost ready.
232
00:14:00,381 --> 00:14:03,132
All right. I got to
feed my rabbit first,
233
00:14:03,300 --> 00:14:04,968
but I'll hurry.
234
00:14:08,681 --> 00:14:10,765
Ma was surprised
I got nominated.
235
00:14:10,933 --> 00:14:12,684
Not more than I was.
236
00:14:14,311 --> 00:14:17,188
Who was it
put your name in?
237
00:14:17,356 --> 00:14:19,607
Joel and Kenny.
238
00:14:19,775 --> 00:14:22,527
They said they'd help
me get elected, too.
239
00:14:22,695 --> 00:14:26,072
I thought you was having
trouble with those two boys.
240
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,574
Didn't they trip you,
241
00:14:27,741 --> 00:14:29,868
tear your pants
or something?
242
00:14:31,370 --> 00:14:34,330
They didn't
mean no harm.
243
00:14:34,498 --> 00:14:37,083
Happened more than once,
didn't it?
244
00:14:37,251 --> 00:14:38,167
That other time,
245
00:14:38,335 --> 00:14:41,296
I tore my shirt
on a bush.
246
00:14:41,463 --> 00:14:43,840
Oh, I see.
247
00:14:47,303 --> 00:14:49,888
Well, it's time you got
a move on, young fella.
248
00:14:50,055 --> 00:14:52,307
Supper will be waiting.
249
00:15:01,442 --> 00:15:03,401
Potatoes aren't
quite done.
250
00:15:03,569 --> 00:15:06,779
That's just as well.
He's got to feed his rabbits.
251
00:15:06,947 --> 00:15:08,698
Should have had
that done by now,
252
00:15:08,866 --> 00:15:12,660
but he was setting out there
petting that little chicken.
253
00:15:12,828 --> 00:15:14,037
He takes good care
of it.
254
00:15:14,204 --> 00:15:15,788
Now, if he had his way,
255
00:15:15,956 --> 00:15:19,584
that whole barn would be
full of sick strays.
256
00:15:23,047 --> 00:15:26,716
You know, I was right
about that nomination.
257
00:15:26,884 --> 00:15:29,761
It's the bagby and Turner
boys that put him up to it.
258
00:15:29,929 --> 00:15:32,347
I hope you told him not
to count on winning.
259
00:15:32,514 --> 00:15:35,934
Not yet... But I will.
260
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:42,482
You know, uh,
261
00:15:42,650 --> 00:15:44,943
kids are like chickens.
262
00:15:45,110 --> 00:15:48,321
Somebody different,
like Elmer,
263
00:15:48,489 --> 00:15:50,365
slow thinker,
264
00:15:50,532 --> 00:15:53,159
can't keep
up with the others...
265
00:15:53,327 --> 00:15:55,578
They set out to
peck him to pieces.
266
00:15:55,746 --> 00:15:56,537
Does he know?
267
00:15:56,705 --> 00:15:58,915
Oh, of course
he knows.
268
00:15:59,083 --> 00:16:01,542
He's slow, Ellen,
but he's not stupid.
269
00:16:01,710 --> 00:16:03,628
It doesn't seem
to bother him.
270
00:16:03,796 --> 00:16:05,088
Well, it doesn't
bother him
271
00:16:05,255 --> 00:16:07,632
that he's two years behind
the other kids his age either.
272
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,593
We kept him out of school.
273
00:16:10,761 --> 00:16:12,845
Yeah, because
of what the kids
274
00:16:13,013 --> 00:16:15,848
and that Springfield
teacher did to him.
275
00:16:17,434 --> 00:16:20,645
A boy doesn't take to books is no
reason to hold him up to shame.
276
00:16:33,117 --> 00:16:34,617
Might have been
a mistake
277
00:16:34,785 --> 00:16:37,787
to put him
in school here, too.
278
00:16:37,955 --> 00:16:41,749
He wants to go, Sam.
279
00:16:43,669 --> 00:16:45,294
Yeah...
280
00:16:45,462 --> 00:16:47,005
Like that
little chicken
281
00:16:47,172 --> 00:16:48,423
wants to...
282
00:16:48,590 --> 00:16:50,675
Run with the flock
283
00:16:50,843 --> 00:16:52,927
and get pecked
to death.
284
00:17:38,932 --> 00:17:41,017
Willie...
285
00:17:49,568 --> 00:17:51,527
I brought you something.
286
00:17:51,695 --> 00:17:52,820
I don't want it.
287
00:17:52,988 --> 00:17:54,197
Yes, you do.
288
00:17:54,364 --> 00:17:57,366
It's something you've been
wanting for a long time.
289
00:17:57,534 --> 00:17:59,118
No. I ain't
gonna help you.
290
00:17:59,286 --> 00:18:01,370
Kenny and Joel said I
shouldn't vote for you,
291
00:18:01,538 --> 00:18:02,622
and I ain't gonna.
292
00:18:02,790 --> 00:18:06,125
All right.
Take it anyway.
293
00:18:06,293 --> 00:18:09,045
Go on, take it.
294
00:18:23,435 --> 00:18:24,852
Good.
295
00:18:25,020 --> 00:18:26,771
The best in the store.
296
00:18:26,939 --> 00:18:28,064
Thanks.
297
00:18:28,232 --> 00:18:31,234
Go ahead. Smoke it.
298
00:18:31,401 --> 00:18:33,653
I am.
299
00:18:34,863 --> 00:18:37,240
Now, you're going to help me
win the election,
300
00:18:37,407 --> 00:18:39,325
and you're going
to vote for me.
301
00:18:39,493 --> 00:18:41,244
Am not!
302
00:18:41,411 --> 00:18:42,495
You promise right now,
303
00:18:42,663 --> 00:18:45,414
or I'll go tell pa
I caught you smoking a cigar.
304
00:18:45,582 --> 00:18:46,958
But you gave
it to me.
305
00:18:47,126 --> 00:18:48,084
He won't believe that.
306
00:18:48,252 --> 00:18:50,044
I'll tell him
you swiped it.
307
00:18:50,212 --> 00:18:52,296
Now, you'll do as I say.
308
00:18:52,464 --> 00:18:54,048
You're going
to come to my party,
309
00:18:54,216 --> 00:18:57,260
and you'll tell everyone
to vote for me, and...
310
00:18:57,427 --> 00:18:59,679
Willie, come back here!
311
00:19:22,369 --> 00:19:24,537
You're going
to the wrong place.
312
00:19:24,705 --> 00:19:27,290
Nellie said the party is
gonna be in the house.
313
00:19:27,457 --> 00:19:29,834
There's gonna be cake
and punch and ice cream
314
00:19:30,002 --> 00:19:31,502
and games
in the yard,
315
00:19:31,670 --> 00:19:34,005
and Nellie said not
to bring a present.
316
00:19:34,173 --> 00:19:37,341
Just bring your vote.
317
00:19:42,973 --> 00:19:45,391
11, 12...
318
00:19:45,559 --> 00:19:47,393
There's just
a dozen today, huh?
319
00:19:47,561 --> 00:19:48,728
Yes, sir.
320
00:19:48,896 --> 00:19:51,022
Well, it's going to be quite a
party, isn't it?
321
00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:53,983
Oh, you know,
they're going to have games and punch
322
00:19:54,151 --> 00:19:55,526
and cookies
and ice cream.
323
00:19:55,694 --> 00:19:59,238
Nellie's invited just... well,
every girl in the school.
324
00:19:59,406 --> 00:20:00,615
Not quite.
325
00:20:00,782 --> 00:20:01,949
Laura.
326
00:20:02,117 --> 00:20:05,119
Well, you are going,
aren't you?
327
00:20:05,287 --> 00:20:06,579
No, sir.
328
00:20:06,747 --> 00:20:08,789
But you were invited.
329
00:20:08,957 --> 00:20:11,209
No, sir.
330
00:20:11,376 --> 00:20:14,253
I... think Nellie forgot.
331
00:20:14,421 --> 00:20:16,756
Well, I'll see to that.
332
00:20:16,924 --> 00:20:19,634
You are invited
as of right now.
333
00:20:19,801 --> 00:20:23,012
Thank you,
but...
334
00:20:23,180 --> 00:20:25,014
But we have
chores.
335
00:20:25,182 --> 00:20:27,308
On Saturday?
336
00:20:28,602 --> 00:20:31,395
Uh... yes!
337
00:20:31,563 --> 00:20:33,064
Thanks just the same.
338
00:20:46,495 --> 00:20:48,287
Elmer: Hi.
339
00:20:48,455 --> 00:20:50,373
Hi.
Hi.
340
00:20:57,547 --> 00:20:59,423
Bunch of girls
over there.
341
00:20:59,591 --> 00:21:02,927
Bossy Nellie
tweed's at it again.
342
00:21:03,095 --> 00:21:04,679
Who?
343
00:21:04,846 --> 00:21:06,305
Oh, that's
Laura's joke.
344
00:21:06,473 --> 00:21:08,641
Boss tweed was
a New York politician.
345
00:21:08,809 --> 00:21:11,894
Oh, I guess
I don't know about him.
346
00:21:12,062 --> 00:21:14,355
He got put in jail
for stealing votes...
347
00:21:15,565 --> 00:21:17,108
And that's
what Nellie's doing.
348
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:20,319
Laura, she's just
having a party.
349
00:21:21,405 --> 00:21:24,573
How come you aren't
over there?
350
00:21:24,741 --> 00:21:25,992
Because she
knows we're not
351
00:21:26,159 --> 00:21:27,660
going to vote
for her.
352
00:21:27,828 --> 00:21:31,330
But she doesn't know
that Mary's going to win.
353
00:21:31,498 --> 00:21:32,748
Well, I hope you do.
354
00:21:34,418 --> 00:21:38,087
Well, you have
a good chance, too, Elmer.
355
00:21:38,255 --> 00:21:42,008
Nah. Kenny and Joel are
always doing things like that.
356
00:21:42,175 --> 00:21:44,510
Nobody will
pay any mind.
357
00:21:44,678 --> 00:21:47,638
Wouldn't be too sure.
358
00:21:47,806 --> 00:21:49,932
You could vote
for yourself.
359
00:21:50,100 --> 00:21:51,976
Nah.
360
00:21:52,144 --> 00:21:54,395
One vote
wouldn't mean much.
361
00:21:57,232 --> 00:21:58,441
Well, we got to go.
362
00:21:58,608 --> 00:21:59,775
See you
in school.
363
00:21:59,943 --> 00:22:00,818
Bye.
364
00:22:00,986 --> 00:22:02,486
Bye.
Bye.
365
00:22:23,633 --> 00:22:27,094
Elmer's pretty sure his squirrel's
going to have young 'uns.
366
00:22:27,262 --> 00:22:29,430
Figures...
367
00:22:29,598 --> 00:22:32,141
Price of seed's
going up again.
368
00:22:32,309 --> 00:22:34,769
Sam, is that
your way of saying
369
00:22:34,936 --> 00:22:37,980
we can't afford to feed
a few baby squirrels?
370
00:22:38,148 --> 00:22:41,150
I didn't say that,
and I didn't mean that.
371
00:22:41,318 --> 00:22:43,986
He sets great store
by his animals.
372
00:22:44,154 --> 00:22:45,696
That he does.
373
00:22:45,864 --> 00:22:49,533
He gets along better with
them than he does with people.
374
00:22:51,203 --> 00:22:54,246
It's not as bad as it
was in Springfield.
375
00:22:54,414 --> 00:22:56,957
Yeah...
376
00:22:57,125 --> 00:22:59,919
I've got some doubts
about that, Ellen.
377
00:23:02,339 --> 00:23:05,174
We both have.
378
00:23:05,342 --> 00:23:06,467
So does Elmer.
379
00:23:06,635 --> 00:23:09,970
He doesn't expect to come
anywhere close to winning.
380
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,060
He did ask me to fix him
a shirt for election day.
381
00:23:16,228 --> 00:23:19,188
Yeah, he thought that you were
going to take one of my old ones
382
00:23:19,356 --> 00:23:21,148
and cut it down to size.
383
00:23:21,316 --> 00:23:24,151
But you're making him a brand-new
one, aren't you?
384
00:23:24,319 --> 00:23:26,195
The least I could do.
385
00:23:27,989 --> 00:23:29,782
Yeah...
386
00:23:29,950 --> 00:23:32,034
The very least.
387
00:23:39,918 --> 00:23:42,503
That's plenty,
darling, thank you.
388
00:23:42,671 --> 00:23:44,422
Who all's coming to
this party of yours?
389
00:23:44,589 --> 00:23:46,674
All the kids in the school
except Nellie and Willie.
390
00:23:46,842 --> 00:23:48,384
Ah, turnabout's
fair play, huh?
391
00:23:48,552 --> 00:23:50,719
Nellie had her party to get
votes, now it's Mary's turn.
392
00:23:50,887 --> 00:23:51,846
That's
exactly right.
393
00:23:52,013 --> 00:23:54,390
Well, if I remember
my school days correctly,
394
00:23:54,558 --> 00:23:55,850
I'm afraid that
these two parties are
395
00:23:56,017 --> 00:23:57,518
just going to win
the election for Elmer.
396
00:23:57,686 --> 00:23:59,562
Oh, no, pa.
397
00:23:59,729 --> 00:24:01,522
Well, sure. You got
two girls running.
398
00:24:01,690 --> 00:24:03,023
The girls are going
to vote for the girls.
399
00:24:03,191 --> 00:24:05,317
That'll split their vote.
And all the boys will vote for Elmer.
400
00:24:05,485 --> 00:24:06,819
And he'll win.
401
00:24:06,987 --> 00:24:09,029
That's why
Jim nominated me!
402
00:24:09,197 --> 00:24:10,948
I thought he was
being nice.
403
00:24:11,116 --> 00:24:13,075
What do we
do now, pa?
404
00:24:13,243 --> 00:24:15,911
Well, afraid there's
not much you can do.
405
00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:17,913
Just be as nice as
you can to the voters,
406
00:24:18,081 --> 00:24:19,415
shake a lot of hands,
407
00:24:19,583 --> 00:24:22,418
and pray for a miracle.
408
00:24:42,105 --> 00:24:44,440
Come on!
Somebody's coming!
409
00:24:50,071 --> 00:24:52,948
Hi, Elmer!
410
00:24:54,409 --> 00:24:55,618
Elmer: Hi.
411
00:25:01,458 --> 00:25:04,168
I brought some
roasting ears.
412
00:25:04,336 --> 00:25:05,836
Pa said I had to
413
00:25:06,004 --> 00:25:07,630
'cause you folks
don't know how much I eat.
414
00:25:07,797 --> 00:25:09,882
It wouldn't matter.
We got plenty.
415
00:25:10,050 --> 00:25:11,759
Yeah, all these and more
roasting in the house.
416
00:25:11,927 --> 00:25:15,012
You... you expecting
lots of kids, huh?
417
00:25:15,180 --> 00:25:18,182
Yeah, quite a few,
I guess.
418
00:25:19,809 --> 00:25:21,310
Something I ought
to tell you.
419
00:25:21,478 --> 00:25:25,064
Bunch of girls coming
out here ahead of me...
420
00:25:25,232 --> 00:25:26,482
Well, they rounded
the corner,
421
00:25:26,650 --> 00:25:30,069
and Nellie and Willie are sitting
there with a box full of...
422
00:25:30,237 --> 00:25:31,946
Candy!
423
00:25:32,113 --> 00:25:35,533
She's buying votes again!
424
00:25:42,916 --> 00:25:45,167
She sure makes it easy.
425
00:25:45,335 --> 00:25:48,003
The kids just stayed with
Nellie and the candy, huh?
426
00:25:48,171 --> 00:25:53,717
She... she was promising cake
and stuff at her house.
427
00:25:53,885 --> 00:25:56,845
All... all the kids aren't
going to vote for her.
428
00:25:57,013 --> 00:25:58,556
I heard some say so.
429
00:26:00,141 --> 00:26:02,101
I hope they all
get sick.
430
00:26:02,269 --> 00:26:05,813
I guess you're not going
to have any party, huh?
431
00:26:07,899 --> 00:26:09,233
Sure we will.
432
00:26:09,401 --> 00:26:10,651
We don't need them.
433
00:26:10,819 --> 00:26:13,529
We'll have a party
of our own.
434
00:26:13,697 --> 00:26:16,282
Oh, good, I can eat
a whole bunch.
435
00:26:16,449 --> 00:26:17,658
Sure!
436
00:26:17,826 --> 00:26:19,827
Come on, Elmer,
I'll race you to the house.
437
00:26:19,995 --> 00:26:22,037
Oh, no.
438
00:26:26,876 --> 00:26:29,795
"Election" is just another
word for shouting match.
439
00:26:29,963 --> 00:26:32,006
Candidates will say
anything to get elected.
440
00:26:32,173 --> 00:26:34,008
They'll make you
promises and job offers
441
00:26:34,175 --> 00:26:35,551
and more promises.
442
00:26:35,719 --> 00:26:38,262
The last federal election, Sam tilden
thought he was gonna be president.
443
00:26:38,430 --> 00:26:40,889
All he needed was one more
electoral vote to win it all.
444
00:26:41,057 --> 00:26:42,808
They used to have
soldiers, didn't they?
445
00:26:42,976 --> 00:26:44,059
That's right, darling,
federal troops
446
00:26:44,227 --> 00:26:45,561
just to get
an honest count.
447
00:26:45,729 --> 00:26:47,896
When it was all over, rutherford b.
Hayes was the new president.
448
00:26:48,064 --> 00:26:50,524
If Nellie is counting,
we could use some troops.
449
00:26:50,692 --> 00:26:53,277
I think miss beadle
can handle it all right.
450
00:26:53,445 --> 00:26:54,987
We're supposed to
campaign this week,
451
00:26:55,155 --> 00:26:56,238
but I don't know
what to say.
452
00:26:56,406 --> 00:26:58,490
Well, what do you want to do
to improve the school?
453
00:26:58,658 --> 00:27:00,492
Have 4 recesses!
454
00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:02,578
That's plain silly.
455
00:27:02,746 --> 00:27:03,996
I'd vote for it.
456
00:27:04,164 --> 00:27:06,582
Well, I'm afraid the school
board wouldn't go for it.
457
00:27:06,750 --> 00:27:07,583
Do the
candidates
458
00:27:07,751 --> 00:27:09,126
keep all the promises
that they make?
459
00:27:09,294 --> 00:27:11,253
Oh, a few,
but not very many.
460
00:27:11,421 --> 00:27:12,421
Isn't that
kind of lying,
461
00:27:12,589 --> 00:27:14,423
making promises
you don't keep?
462
00:27:14,591 --> 00:27:16,342
Well, it's not kind of like
lying, sweetheart.
463
00:27:16,509 --> 00:27:18,302
It's just plain old lying.
No doubt about it.
464
00:27:18,470 --> 00:27:21,472
Don't the candidates
call each other names?
465
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,057
Most of the time.
466
00:27:23,224 --> 00:27:26,018
I could think of some good
names for Nellie oleson.
467
00:27:26,186 --> 00:27:28,854
Hey, now, come on.
That just makes you enemies, not friends.
468
00:27:29,022 --> 00:27:31,315
I think you two ought to get
yourselves to bed now, too.
469
00:27:31,483 --> 00:27:32,650
It's getting late.
470
00:27:35,612 --> 00:27:38,781
I think I'll just list the things
I think will make the school better
471
00:27:38,948 --> 00:27:39,907
and make my speech.
472
00:27:40,075 --> 00:27:41,575
That's a good idea,
and don't give up.
473
00:27:41,743 --> 00:27:43,327
Remember, Hayes won
by just one vote.
474
00:27:43,495 --> 00:27:44,286
Ok.
475
00:27:44,454 --> 00:27:45,371
Good night.
Have a good sleep.
476
00:27:45,538 --> 00:27:46,372
Good night, pa.
477
00:27:46,539 --> 00:27:48,415
You too, sleepyhead.
Thanks for the help.
478
00:27:48,583 --> 00:27:49,291
I love you.
479
00:27:49,459 --> 00:27:51,502
Good night, pa.
Good night.
480
00:27:51,670 --> 00:27:53,128
Pa?
Yeah.
481
00:27:53,296 --> 00:27:55,172
You know what would help
more than anything?
482
00:27:55,340 --> 00:27:58,592
If oleson's mercantile
ran clear out of candy.
483
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,220
Go on,
get yourself to bed.
484
00:28:01,388 --> 00:28:03,472
Good night, pa.
Good night, darling.
485
00:28:43,471 --> 00:28:45,305
Hey, Elmer.
486
00:28:45,473 --> 00:28:46,682
Why, I've been thinking.
487
00:28:46,850 --> 00:28:48,934
How are you going
to win the election?
488
00:28:49,102 --> 00:28:50,811
Got to get yourself
to that stump over there,
489
00:28:50,979 --> 00:28:53,147
hop up on it,
and tell everyone to vote for you.
490
00:28:54,107 --> 00:28:55,357
No...
491
00:28:55,525 --> 00:28:57,317
Come on, we said we were going
to help you win the election,
492
00:28:57,485 --> 00:28:58,360
and we're going to do it.
493
00:28:58,528 --> 00:29:00,738
Right this way,
Mr. Candidate.
494
00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:09,246
Come on, everybody.
Look at this show.
495
00:29:09,414 --> 00:29:10,372
Watch this.
496
00:29:10,540 --> 00:29:11,707
You tell them,
Mr. Candidate.
497
00:29:11,875 --> 00:29:13,250
Yeah, tell them what you'll
do to get their vote.
498
00:29:13,418 --> 00:29:14,710
Will he eat
worms?
499
00:29:14,878 --> 00:29:15,878
Joel: One worm
for every vote.
500
00:29:16,045 --> 00:29:17,713
He did it before,
and he'll do it again...
501
00:29:17,881 --> 00:29:20,466
Stand on his head, too.
Come on, Elmer, show them.
502
00:29:20,633 --> 00:29:22,009
All right,
up you come.
503
00:29:22,177 --> 00:29:23,635
You know what else
he'll do?
504
00:29:23,803 --> 00:29:24,762
Vote for Elmer here,
505
00:29:24,929 --> 00:29:26,054
and he'll come running
when you whistle.
506
00:29:26,222 --> 00:29:27,890
He'll scratch your back
or tie your shoe.
507
00:29:28,057 --> 00:29:29,391
Or he'll do
your problems.
508
00:29:29,559 --> 00:29:31,310
You'll get a zero, like he
does, but he'll still do them.
509
00:29:31,478 --> 00:29:34,021
That will be quite enough!
510
00:29:37,317 --> 00:29:38,942
What are you
doing?
511
00:29:39,110 --> 00:29:40,444
Just campaigning,
miss beadle.
512
00:29:40,612 --> 00:29:43,238
That kind of campaigning
we can do without,
513
00:29:43,406 --> 00:29:45,532
and if I hear one more word
out of either one of you,
514
00:29:45,700 --> 00:29:47,785
you're going
to stay after school.
515
00:29:51,164 --> 00:29:53,832
All right, recess is over.
You can go in.
516
00:30:37,961 --> 00:30:39,795
Sam...
517
00:30:39,963 --> 00:30:42,631
I didn't
hear you come in.
518
00:30:42,799 --> 00:30:44,299
That's a good-looking shirt.
519
00:30:44,467 --> 00:30:46,969
Election day tomorrow.
520
00:30:47,136 --> 00:30:49,054
Figured he ought
to look his best.
521
00:30:50,515 --> 00:30:52,558
Where is he?
522
00:30:52,725 --> 00:30:54,518
Feeding his animals.
523
00:30:56,104 --> 00:30:58,355
The sick strays.
524
00:30:59,607 --> 00:31:02,359
Yeah.
525
00:31:11,828 --> 00:31:15,080
Miss beadle...
526
00:31:15,248 --> 00:31:17,332
Fellow opponents,
527
00:31:17,500 --> 00:31:20,127
classmates...
528
00:31:21,170 --> 00:31:23,213
I...
529
00:31:24,507 --> 00:31:27,426
Miss beadle,
530
00:31:27,594 --> 00:31:31,388
fellow opponents,
classmates...
531
00:31:32,974 --> 00:31:36,226
I'm very proud
to be nominated.
532
00:31:39,314 --> 00:31:41,440
I hope...
533
00:31:42,734 --> 00:31:45,861
Sam:
Practicing, huh?
534
00:31:46,029 --> 00:31:48,697
Yeah, trying.
535
00:31:48,865 --> 00:31:51,950
Hmm...
536
00:31:52,118 --> 00:31:55,871
Before you do any
more speechmaking,
537
00:31:56,039 --> 00:31:58,206
we got to have
a little talk.
538
00:32:00,376 --> 00:32:02,169
Now, what were
those two boys
539
00:32:02,337 --> 00:32:05,088
doing to you today
in the schoolyard?
540
00:32:09,427 --> 00:32:10,969
Hmm?
541
00:32:12,013 --> 00:32:17,225
Um... they was
just making jokes.
542
00:32:17,393 --> 00:32:19,519
Yeah,
your friends...
543
00:32:19,687 --> 00:32:23,231
The two that were going
to help you get elected.
544
00:32:23,399 --> 00:32:25,317
Uh... yeah.
545
00:32:25,485 --> 00:32:28,070
Well, I heard the part
about you eating worms,
546
00:32:28,237 --> 00:32:31,782
and enough more to know
that they're not your friends.
547
00:32:33,159 --> 00:32:35,786
They didn't
mean no harm.
548
00:32:41,834 --> 00:32:44,211
That's your idea,
549
00:32:44,379 --> 00:32:46,046
and mine's different.
550
00:32:47,757 --> 00:32:50,008
Now, somebody
fed you worms.
551
00:32:50,176 --> 00:32:51,927
Now, who was it?
552
00:32:57,141 --> 00:32:59,309
Now, tell me, son.
553
00:32:59,477 --> 00:33:02,312
You're not going to
get in any trouble
554
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:03,897
unless you lie.
555
00:33:06,275 --> 00:33:08,026
It...
556
00:33:08,194 --> 00:33:10,278
Look, it was Joel.
557
00:33:10,446 --> 00:33:13,740
Yeah, that's
what I thought.
558
00:33:13,908 --> 00:33:16,243
You know,
559
00:33:16,411 --> 00:33:17,661
they didn't
nominate you
560
00:33:17,829 --> 00:33:21,164
because they thought
you could get elected.
561
00:33:21,332 --> 00:33:24,459
They're just
picking on you.
562
00:33:24,627 --> 00:33:29,965
The way that... the way
that whole flock
563
00:33:30,133 --> 00:33:33,010
pecks at that
little chicken.
564
00:33:35,471 --> 00:33:38,265
I'm going to talk to their
parents in the morning.
565
00:33:38,433 --> 00:33:40,726
Pa, please!
566
00:33:40,893 --> 00:33:43,603
Please don't.
567
00:33:43,771 --> 00:33:46,565
It'll just make
things worse.
568
00:33:49,944 --> 00:33:53,071
What they're doing
to you now...
569
00:33:53,239 --> 00:33:55,699
How could it be worse?
570
00:33:57,410 --> 00:34:01,788
Please...
It just will.
571
00:34:03,750 --> 00:34:05,876
All right.
572
00:34:06,044 --> 00:34:09,963
But you're going
to tell miss beadle
573
00:34:10,131 --> 00:34:13,341
that you're not
running for anything...
574
00:34:13,509 --> 00:34:16,261
Now or ever.
575
00:34:16,429 --> 00:34:18,972
Now, you got that?
576
00:34:19,140 --> 00:34:20,724
Yes, sir.
577
00:34:50,338 --> 00:34:53,715
There. Looks real nice,
if I do say it myself.
578
00:34:53,883 --> 00:34:55,717
It's a good-looking
shirt.
579
00:34:55,885 --> 00:34:57,803
I didn't even know
you were making it.
580
00:34:57,970 --> 00:34:59,221
Little enough.
581
00:34:59,388 --> 00:35:01,890
We couldn't have you wearing
an old shirt on election day.
582
00:35:02,058 --> 00:35:04,392
Yeah, ma.
583
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,729
You remember
what I told you.
584
00:35:07,897 --> 00:35:09,189
Yes, sir.
585
00:35:25,790 --> 00:35:27,916
And what was
that about?
586
00:35:28,084 --> 00:35:31,128
A talk we had
in the barn.
587
00:35:54,277 --> 00:35:57,112
Kenny: We got to do that
test for miss beadle.
588
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,239
Joel:
Yeah, I know.
589
00:36:04,328 --> 00:36:05,453
If there'd been
a bird on that branch,
590
00:36:05,621 --> 00:36:06,621
I'd have
killed him dead.
591
00:36:06,789 --> 00:36:08,915
Aw, you'd have missed
him, same as always.
592
00:36:15,631 --> 00:36:18,008
Hey, look
who's over there.
593
00:36:19,385 --> 00:36:21,761
Let's go.
594
00:36:26,100 --> 00:36:27,893
Hi, Elmer.
595
00:36:28,060 --> 00:36:31,813
Elmer, you look mighty
fancy for your speech today.
596
00:36:31,981 --> 00:36:33,315
I ain't making
any speeches,
597
00:36:33,482 --> 00:36:34,774
and I ain't going to
be in the election.
598
00:36:34,942 --> 00:36:36,943
Are you mad because
we was funning you some?
599
00:36:37,111 --> 00:36:40,655
A little.
My pa was mad.
600
00:36:40,823 --> 00:36:42,449
He was riding by, and he saw it.
601
00:36:42,617 --> 00:36:44,618
You told him we was
only joking, didn't you?
602
00:36:44,785 --> 00:36:47,370
I told him.
603
00:36:47,538 --> 00:36:51,082
But if you don't run,
we ain't got a candidate.
604
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,669
Find somebody else.
605
00:36:54,837 --> 00:36:57,714
We can't.
It's too late.
606
00:36:59,342 --> 00:37:01,134
Well, you can
eat worms at recess,
607
00:37:01,302 --> 00:37:05,013
and you can tell
miss beadle you want to run.
608
00:37:07,433 --> 00:37:09,726
You know something,
you tell pretty good jokes yourself.
609
00:37:09,894 --> 00:37:13,647
Come on, Elmer.
We got to get you elected.
610
00:37:13,814 --> 00:37:15,023
Not me.
611
00:37:15,191 --> 00:37:18,401
You don't want a girl for
president, do you?
612
00:37:19,403 --> 00:37:21,696
I don't care.
613
00:37:21,864 --> 00:37:25,116
Well, all right,
if you don't want to be president,
614
00:37:25,284 --> 00:37:26,159
that's fine with us.
615
00:37:26,327 --> 00:37:27,786
Sure is.
We're your friends.
616
00:37:27,954 --> 00:37:30,705
Yeah, we're your friends.
We understand.
617
00:37:30,873 --> 00:37:32,415
You do?
618
00:37:32,583 --> 00:37:34,376
Sure, that's what
friends are for.
619
00:37:34,543 --> 00:37:36,878
Come on, we'll
walk together.
620
00:37:49,475 --> 00:37:51,977
Hey, Elmer,
seen the new piglets at Stinson's?
621
00:37:52,144 --> 00:37:52,936
Uh-uh.
622
00:37:53,104 --> 00:37:54,062
Cute as can be.
623
00:37:54,230 --> 00:37:55,855
One of them's got
a bad leg, though.
624
00:37:56,023 --> 00:37:56,940
Think so?
625
00:37:57,108 --> 00:37:59,025
Maybe we ought to check
on the way to school.
626
00:37:59,193 --> 00:38:01,111
All right.
627
00:38:17,253 --> 00:38:18,795
Well, what do
you think?
628
00:38:18,963 --> 00:38:20,797
Well...
629
00:38:22,216 --> 00:38:24,426
I don't see any of
them with a bad leg.
630
00:38:24,593 --> 00:38:26,469
Take a closer look.
631
00:38:34,103 --> 00:38:36,563
Kenny: Oh, boy,
look at him!
632
00:38:39,608 --> 00:38:40,442
Look at him.
633
00:38:40,609 --> 00:38:41,943
Don't be late
for school.
634
00:39:01,380 --> 00:39:04,591
I've been honored
by the nomination.
635
00:39:04,759 --> 00:39:06,801
If elected,
I'll do my best
636
00:39:06,969 --> 00:39:08,720
to make our school
a better one.
637
00:39:10,431 --> 00:39:12,891
My pa says campaign promises
aren't worth much,
638
00:39:13,059 --> 00:39:14,726
so I won't make any.
639
00:39:17,271 --> 00:39:18,772
If you do vote for me,
640
00:39:18,939 --> 00:39:21,191
I'll appreciate it.
641
00:39:22,818 --> 00:39:25,570
Uh...
642
00:39:25,738 --> 00:39:26,821
Thank you.
643
00:39:31,410 --> 00:39:32,369
Thank you, Mary.
644
00:39:32,536 --> 00:39:34,746
Nellie, I believe
you're next.
645
00:39:37,458 --> 00:39:41,086
Miss beadle, classmates,
fellow Americans,
646
00:39:41,253 --> 00:39:45,590
it is my pleasure and honor
to stand before you today
647
00:39:45,758 --> 00:39:48,051
as candidate
to be your president.
648
00:39:48,219 --> 00:39:51,388
There are many reasons why
you should vote for me...
649
00:39:51,555 --> 00:39:54,557
One more reason to
punch her in the nose.
650
00:40:12,868 --> 00:40:15,120
And finally,
you should vote for me
651
00:40:15,287 --> 00:40:17,872
because my mother will
give a party if I win...
652
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,291
Cake and ice cream,
all you can eat,
653
00:40:20,459 --> 00:40:22,710
and everyone who
votes for me is invited.
654
00:40:22,878 --> 00:40:23,878
Thank you.
655
00:40:29,343 --> 00:40:30,760
Elmer!
656
00:40:33,764 --> 00:40:35,598
What happened?
657
00:40:38,352 --> 00:40:39,727
I... it's nothing.
658
00:40:39,895 --> 00:40:42,355
I slipped and fell.
659
00:40:42,523 --> 00:40:43,606
Did the other boys
660
00:40:43,774 --> 00:40:45,817
have something
to do with this?
661
00:40:45,985 --> 00:40:48,862
I... I can't say.
662
00:40:50,531 --> 00:40:53,032
Elmer, look. I want you
to go home, clean up,
663
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:54,993
you can come back
and make your speech,
664
00:40:55,161 --> 00:40:57,328
and we'll vote
this afternoon.
665
00:40:58,831 --> 00:41:00,206
It's all right,
miss beadle.
666
00:41:00,374 --> 00:41:03,918
I'm not running
for nothing.
667
00:41:04,086 --> 00:41:06,379
My pa
don't want me to.
668
00:41:06,547 --> 00:41:08,423
Besides,
669
00:41:08,591 --> 00:41:10,550
me running
for class president,
670
00:41:10,718 --> 00:41:12,260
we all know
that's a joke.
671
00:41:13,679 --> 00:41:15,680
Miss beadle: Class!
672
00:41:15,848 --> 00:41:17,432
Go ahead and laugh.
673
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,768
I know I'm not
smart like you.
674
00:41:20,936 --> 00:41:21,895
I don't even know
675
00:41:22,062 --> 00:41:25,023
what a class president's
supposed to do.
676
00:41:25,191 --> 00:41:27,317
But I... but I
677
00:41:27,485 --> 00:41:30,111
know what's
right and wrong,
678
00:41:30,279 --> 00:41:31,946
and it ain't right
679
00:41:32,114 --> 00:41:34,157
for big kids to be
picking on little kids
680
00:41:34,325 --> 00:41:35,617
just 'cause they think
681
00:41:35,784 --> 00:41:38,870
it's fun
to hurt somebody.
682
00:41:39,038 --> 00:41:42,832
And it ain't right
to give someone something
683
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,918
to make them vote for you.
684
00:41:45,085 --> 00:41:46,669
Just because
685
00:41:46,837 --> 00:41:49,380
some folks got more
money than others.
686
00:41:49,548 --> 00:41:53,009
It ain't right
to make fun of people...
687
00:41:53,177 --> 00:41:55,887
Or push them in the mud
688
00:41:56,055 --> 00:41:59,599
to make them look silly.
689
00:42:01,393 --> 00:42:05,313
My... my mother
made me this shirt
690
00:42:05,481 --> 00:42:06,814
because she loves me.
691
00:42:06,982 --> 00:42:10,193
You probably all
think that's dumb.
692
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,404
But that's what's
wrong around here.
693
00:42:13,572 --> 00:42:17,408
People don't pay no mind
to other people's carings.
694
00:42:19,495 --> 00:42:23,206
I hope whoever gets
to be class president
695
00:42:23,374 --> 00:42:25,959
sees to it that
the little kids
696
00:42:26,126 --> 00:42:30,171
aren't picked on or hurt,
697
00:42:30,339 --> 00:42:32,674
because it's not right.
698
00:42:32,841 --> 00:42:35,510
It's just not right.
699
00:42:41,517 --> 00:42:44,561
Thank you, Elmer.
700
00:42:52,861 --> 00:42:56,739
Mary, the speechmaking
is over.
701
00:42:57,866 --> 00:43:00,702
I don't want to make
a speech, miss beadle.
702
00:43:00,869 --> 00:43:04,080
I want to withdraw
from the election.
703
00:43:05,249 --> 00:43:08,710
I don't want anyone
to vote for me.
704
00:43:08,877 --> 00:43:11,504
The best president
this class could have
705
00:43:11,672 --> 00:43:13,256
is Elmer dobkins.
706
00:43:18,804 --> 00:43:21,514
I know you're
not supposed to run...
707
00:43:21,682 --> 00:43:23,808
But you have to.
708
00:43:23,976 --> 00:43:25,810
'Cause you're the only one
that really knows
709
00:43:25,978 --> 00:43:29,272
what a president
should do.
710
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,442
I know your pa
would understand.
711
00:43:35,195 --> 00:43:36,571
Please, Elmer...
712
00:43:38,157 --> 00:43:39,365
Will you run?
713
00:44:01,930 --> 00:44:05,600
I think it's
time to vote.
714
00:44:13,942 --> 00:44:23,993
Elmer dobkins.
715
00:44:26,246 --> 00:44:28,373
Well, it looks like
we have a two-way tie.
716
00:44:28,540 --> 00:44:31,584
Can't be. We're supposed
to have 25 votes.
717
00:44:31,752 --> 00:44:33,336
That's right.
We'll have to wait.
718
00:44:33,504 --> 00:44:35,421
My brother went
to the outhouse.
719
00:44:35,589 --> 00:44:36,839
Oh...
720
00:44:42,262 --> 00:44:45,556
Miss beadle: Willie,
you didn't vote.
721
00:44:45,724 --> 00:44:46,599
No, ma'am.
722
00:44:46,767 --> 00:44:48,935
Well, would you mind?
We're waiting.
723
00:45:08,247 --> 00:45:11,290
Laura...
724
00:45:17,005 --> 00:45:19,215
Elmer dobkins!
725
00:45:19,383 --> 00:45:20,967
Willie,
how could you?
726
00:45:21,135 --> 00:45:22,802
'Cause you're always
picking on me,
727
00:45:22,970 --> 00:45:25,513
that's why, and
Elmer won't let you!
728
00:45:25,681 --> 00:45:27,140
Aah!
729
00:45:27,307 --> 00:45:29,308
Laura:
Hurray for Elmer!
730
00:45:48,787 --> 00:45:50,037
Pa!
Pa!
731
00:45:50,205 --> 00:45:51,539
Pa, wait till
we tell you!
732
00:45:51,707 --> 00:45:53,207
Take it easy,
tell me what?
733
00:45:53,375 --> 00:45:54,375
Elmer won.
734
00:45:54,543 --> 00:45:56,461
He should have. He made
the finest speech ever.
735
00:45:56,628 --> 00:45:57,837
Elmer?
736
00:45:58,005 --> 00:46:00,339
Even with all the candy
in oleson's mercantile,
737
00:46:00,507 --> 00:46:01,924
Nellie couldn't
beat him.
738
00:46:07,890 --> 00:46:10,183
See you later,
Elmer.
739
00:46:10,350 --> 00:46:12,769
Yeah.
740
00:46:15,481 --> 00:46:18,274
Excuse me.
741
00:46:52,434 --> 00:46:56,395
Congratulations,
Mr. President.
742
00:47:14,081 --> 00:47:16,582
Come on.
743
00:47:16,750 --> 00:47:21,254
Let's go home and tell
your ma about this, huh?51366
