1
00:00:02,544 --> 00:00:05,631
[marching band plays]
2
00:00:09,259 --> 00:00:12,137
[male announcer] Gomer Pyle, USMC.
3
00:00:14,765 --> 00:00:17,726
Starring Jim Nabors as Gomer Pyle.
4
00:00:19,478 --> 00:00:22,648
Also starring Frank Sutton
as Sergeant Carter.
5
00:00:32,574 --> 00:00:34,493
So, like I said, Johnson,
6
00:00:34,493 --> 00:00:37,454
reenlistment's a good deal
any way you look at it.
7
00:00:37,454 --> 00:00:40,624
Privileges, promotion,
pay a bonus of six months' extra pay,
8
00:00:40,624 --> 00:00:42,709
and finally, that big pension.
9
00:00:42,709 --> 00:00:45,879
After only 19 and a half years,
you get half pay for life.
10
00:00:45,879 --> 00:00:49,091
And you're still young enough to begin
a whole new career on the outside.
11
00:00:49,091 --> 00:00:52,219
Now, you're a pretty smart fella.
How does that sound to you?
12
00:00:52,219 --> 00:00:54,054
- Pretty good.
- You bet it is.
13
00:00:54,054 --> 00:00:56,390
So we'll count on you
being with us for another hitch, huh?
14
00:00:56,390 --> 00:00:57,391
Right, Sarge.
15
00:00:58,100 --> 00:00:59,935
Did you ever think
about going into politics?
16
00:00:59,935 --> 00:01:03,981
- I just tell it like it is, that's all.
- Well, you got an easy one next, Pyle.
17
00:01:04,856 --> 00:01:06,024
Pyle?
18
00:01:06,024 --> 00:01:08,193
He'll be ready to sign
before he gets through the door.
19
00:01:08,193 --> 00:01:10,529
You know ol' Gung-ho Gomer
when it comes to the Marines.
20
00:01:10,529 --> 00:01:12,406
- Yeah.
- So, no problem.
21
00:01:12,406 --> 00:01:14,783
What are you talking about?
I've been dreading this moment.
22
00:01:14,783 --> 00:01:17,369
Another hitch with Pyle around,
I'll be a raving lunatic!
23
00:01:17,369 --> 00:01:19,955
Somehow, he's got to go. I mean it.
24
00:01:19,955 --> 00:01:22,916
Either he becomes a civilian
or I become a psycho.
25
00:01:22,916 --> 00:01:25,752
I put in three years and it's aged me 12.
26
00:01:25,752 --> 00:01:29,756
Look at that. Gray hairs! Three new ones!
27
00:01:29,756 --> 00:01:33,552
- I can't even let myself think about it.
- How about recommending he join the Army?
28
00:01:33,552 --> 00:01:35,012
Hm?
29
00:01:35,012 --> 00:01:37,973
Nah, I couldn't do that, not even to them.
30
00:01:37,973 --> 00:01:41,351
Well, we can't put it off forever.
Bring him in.
31
00:01:43,478 --> 00:01:45,606
Please, let me come up with something
32
00:01:45,606 --> 00:01:47,733
- that'll make him want to be a civilian.
- [Duke] Pyle.
33
00:01:48,859 --> 00:01:53,322
Hey, Sergeant! How about this?
Reenlistment time already.
34
00:01:53,322 --> 00:01:57,409
My... my, my, how time does fly.
Seems just like yesterday...
35
00:01:57,409 --> 00:02:00,329
- Uh, Pyle...
- Johnson said what a fine speech you gave,
36
00:02:00,329 --> 00:02:02,748
but you don't have to do that with me,
I've already made up...
37
00:02:02,748 --> 00:02:07,294
Don't say a word! I mean,
this is an important decision, Pyle,
38
00:02:07,294 --> 00:02:10,422
and it's... it's my duty
to give you the facts first.
39
00:02:10,422 --> 00:02:13,300
You mean like the poster here,
things like promotion.
40
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:17,512
Promotion?
Well, sure, that works for some, but...
41
00:02:17,512 --> 00:02:20,891
well, for others,
it's one stripe all their life.
42
00:02:20,891 --> 00:02:23,435
And one step out of line
and you lose that, too.
43
00:02:23,435 --> 00:02:26,563
Then that bonus. What is it?
44
00:02:26,563 --> 00:02:30,776
Peanuts compared to what a guy can make
in just one week as a TV repairman.
45
00:02:31,777 --> 00:02:34,363
Sergeant, I've loved every minute
of being in the Marines.
46
00:02:34,363 --> 00:02:38,408
I know, Pyle.
And you've more than done your part.
47
00:02:38,408 --> 00:02:40,744
But I've been watching you closely, Pyle,
48
00:02:40,744 --> 00:02:42,913
and you're one of the few men
in my platoon
49
00:02:42,913 --> 00:02:45,374
that I can say is truly ready
50
00:02:45,374 --> 00:02:48,126
to move into the mainstream
of civilian life.
51
00:02:48,126 --> 00:02:50,253
Congratulations.
52
00:02:50,253 --> 00:02:53,173
Sergeant, you sound like
I ought to leave the Corps.
53
00:02:53,173 --> 00:02:55,717
Well, if that's your final decision,
I understand.
54
00:02:55,717 --> 00:02:57,844
- But, Sergeant...
- Don't say it.
55
00:02:57,844 --> 00:03:00,472
Give it some thought. There's still time.
56
00:03:00,472 --> 00:03:04,059
But I think you are really
on the right track, Mr. Pyle.
57
00:03:04,935 --> 00:03:07,312
- Mr. Pyle?
- Sounds good, huh?
58
00:03:07,312 --> 00:03:09,439
Well, Sergeant, you see,
I've already decided...
59
00:03:09,439 --> 00:03:11,441
Not now. Not now!
60
00:03:11,441 --> 00:03:14,277
Think about it... short-timer!
61
00:03:14,277 --> 00:03:16,113
[laughs]
62
00:03:17,364 --> 00:03:18,865
I don't think I made it.
63
00:03:18,865 --> 00:03:21,034
It sounded like he's ready to go
the whole 19 years.
64
00:03:22,119 --> 00:03:23,870
19 years?!
65
00:03:23,870 --> 00:03:26,331
I can't take another 19 days!
66
00:03:26,331 --> 00:03:28,875
How do I get to him? How?
67
00:03:28,875 --> 00:03:30,919
Well, there's one more outside.
You wanna see him?
68
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,629
Oh, sure, sure.
69
00:03:36,550 --> 00:03:38,427
I wonder...
70
00:03:38,427 --> 00:03:40,220
would Pyle take a bribe?
71
00:03:41,763 --> 00:03:45,058
I got a few dollars saved up.
I'll top their offer.
72
00:03:46,226 --> 00:03:50,188
- Sergeant, uh, about my reenlistment.
- Huh? Oh, yeah.
73
00:03:50,188 --> 00:03:52,315
Well, I hope you'll understand,
74
00:03:52,315 --> 00:03:55,444
but my girlfriend...
well, that is, my fiancée,
75
00:03:55,444 --> 00:03:57,446
well, I won't be signing over.
76
00:03:57,446 --> 00:04:00,282
We're gonna get married
and that's kind of a full-time assignment.
77
00:04:01,575 --> 00:04:05,245
Yeah, well, uh, you ought to keep in mind,
there are a lot of good reasons for...
78
00:04:07,289 --> 00:04:08,457
What did you say?
79
00:04:09,833 --> 00:04:12,586
Well, it's just that we figured
marriage and the Marines don't mix.
80
00:04:14,337 --> 00:04:17,132
You figured... they don't mix?
81
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:22,304
[laughs] Well, if your mind's made up, that's it!
82
00:04:22,304 --> 00:04:26,308
Congratulations!
And may all your troubles be little ones.
83
00:04:26,308 --> 00:04:28,977
[laughs] That's it! You heard?
84
00:04:28,977 --> 00:04:31,229
That's how we'll do it! Marriage!
85
00:04:31,229 --> 00:04:34,649
- You're gonna get married?
- Not me, Pyle!
86
00:04:34,649 --> 00:04:37,277
If I can get Pyle married, I'm safe.
87
00:04:37,277 --> 00:04:41,948
He'll march down the aisle,
out of the Marines and my hair forever.
88
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:43,909
Supposing he doesn't wanna get married?
89
00:04:44,701 --> 00:04:46,912
He will. He will.
90
00:04:46,912 --> 00:04:49,664
[hums bridal march]
91
00:04:58,632 --> 00:05:01,134
Well, going into town, Pyle?
92
00:05:01,134 --> 00:05:03,595
Well, no, Sergeant, not tonight.
93
00:05:03,595 --> 00:05:05,514
You ain't gonna see Lou-Ann?
94
00:05:05,514 --> 00:05:08,642
Oh, no.
She's away on this trip till Friday.
95
00:05:08,642 --> 00:05:11,728
Oh.
Then you didn't have no fight or nothing?
96
00:05:11,728 --> 00:05:14,105
With Lou-Ann? Golly, no. [laughs]
97
00:05:14,105 --> 00:05:17,567
Good, good.
Lou-Ann's one girl in a million.
98
00:05:17,567 --> 00:05:20,529
Yes, sir, one in a million. [laughs]
99
00:05:26,368 --> 00:05:29,496
I envy you, Pyle. I really do.
100
00:05:30,539 --> 00:05:34,876
I can't help but think back
to when I was just where you are now,
101
00:05:34,876 --> 00:05:38,004
a PFC, in a barracks just like this.
102
00:05:38,755 --> 00:05:42,175
I had a girl then, too, just like Lou-Ann.
103
00:05:42,926 --> 00:05:45,262
It was reenlistment time
104
00:05:45,262 --> 00:05:48,849
and I had to make the same decision
that's facing you now.
105
00:05:50,225 --> 00:05:52,018
All I can say, Pyle...
106
00:05:53,019 --> 00:05:55,063
Gomer...
107
00:05:55,063 --> 00:05:58,275
I hope you don't make
the same mistake I did.
108
00:05:59,526 --> 00:06:00,569
Mistake?
109
00:06:01,611 --> 00:06:03,488
Not that it's been all bad.
110
00:06:04,447 --> 00:06:08,159
Promotions came along,
but... it's hollow, Pyle.
111
00:06:09,286 --> 00:06:10,662
All hollow.
112
00:06:12,122 --> 00:06:14,875
What's a full sleeve
113
00:06:14,875 --> 00:06:16,877
when you've got an empty heart?
114
00:06:18,628 --> 00:06:21,756
- Gosh, Sergeant.
- And now, for me...
115
00:06:23,466 --> 00:06:25,302
...it's too late.
116
00:06:28,555 --> 00:06:31,725
Just endless reveilles...
117
00:06:32,684 --> 00:06:35,854
...until the final... taps.
118
00:06:37,647 --> 00:06:40,150
No patter of little feet.
119
00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:45,238
No companion by my side
to walk into the twilight of life.
120
00:06:47,115 --> 00:06:48,909
Go-Olly, Sergeant.
121
00:06:49,784 --> 00:06:52,162
I never had the slightest idea.
122
00:06:52,162 --> 00:06:56,041
Listen to me, not as your sergeant,
but as a friend, Pyle.
123
00:06:56,041 --> 00:06:58,001
Now, Gomer...
124
00:06:58,001 --> 00:07:00,712
don't let this chance for happiness
pass you by.
125
00:07:00,712 --> 00:07:03,882
I mean it! Marry Lou-Ann, now!
126
00:07:04,674 --> 00:07:06,968
Marriage? Now?
127
00:07:06,968 --> 00:07:09,054
She'd make a good wife, wouldn't she?
128
00:07:09,054 --> 00:07:12,724
- Well, absolutely. No question.
- Then do it, Pyle!
129
00:07:12,724 --> 00:07:14,434
You want a home...
130
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,020
...a fireplace...
131
00:07:17,854 --> 00:07:19,314
...an easy chair...
132
00:07:20,231 --> 00:07:21,691
...a dog...
133
00:07:22,651 --> 00:07:24,486
...a color TV.
134
00:07:25,820 --> 00:07:27,614
Pyle...
135
00:07:27,614 --> 00:07:30,325
happiness is not a bunk.
136
00:07:31,451 --> 00:07:33,244
It's a double bed.
137
00:07:35,163 --> 00:07:39,542
Well, I haven't even discussed this
with Lou-Ann. And she's away on this trip.
138
00:07:39,542 --> 00:07:42,629
Well, what a great surprise it'll make
for her when she gets back.
139
00:07:42,629 --> 00:07:45,966
Friday, huh?
We can have it all arranged by then.
140
00:07:45,966 --> 00:07:50,136
Pyle, helping you
to find your happiness...
141
00:07:50,845 --> 00:07:55,517
...may help me forget
how I lost the chance to find mine.
142
00:08:01,106 --> 00:08:03,274
[man] I'm sure you'll be very happy
with that ring.
143
00:08:05,276 --> 00:08:06,861
Okay, Pyle.
144
00:08:08,196 --> 00:08:12,075
- Do you know Lou-Ann's ring size?
- Well, it's about the size of my pinky.
145
00:08:12,075 --> 00:08:15,120
We was fooling around once
with a ring from a Cracker Jack box.
146
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,497
- Great. No problems.
- But, Sergeant...
147
00:08:17,497 --> 00:08:21,084
Well, marriage is a very important step.
148
00:08:21,084 --> 00:08:23,003
Of course it's important.
149
00:08:23,003 --> 00:08:26,840
If it wasn't for marriage, Pyle,
you and I wouldn't even be here.
150
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,092
But I'm not sure that I'm ready yet.
151
00:08:29,092 --> 00:08:32,971
Ready! Ready!
Who's to say when we're ready?
152
00:08:32,971 --> 00:08:35,890
- Thank you.
- I'd like to buy a wedding ring.
153
00:08:35,890 --> 00:08:39,436
Well, well, well, how wonderful.
Congratulations.
154
00:08:39,436 --> 00:08:43,189
- Right here. Do you know the ring size?
- We'll try it on right here.
155
00:08:43,189 --> 00:08:45,525
Uh, Pyle? Over here.
156
00:08:47,652 --> 00:08:50,989
- See anything you like?
- You're buying a ring for him?
157
00:08:50,989 --> 00:08:53,742
How about this one? It looks real nice.
158
00:08:53,742 --> 00:08:56,786
Well, Sergeant, I don't know about this.
Do you really think...
159
00:08:56,786 --> 00:08:59,748
Believe me, Pyle, it's the right thing.
160
00:08:59,748 --> 00:09:02,959
And it'll make both of us
very, very happy.
161
00:09:02,959 --> 00:09:06,046
- But, Sergeant...
- Are you sure these are the best you got?
162
00:09:06,046 --> 00:09:10,842
Because it's for the prettiest
little finger in the whole world.
163
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:16,306
Are you sure you wouldn't rather have...
just a friendship ring?
164
00:09:17,766 --> 00:09:19,893
- [ring clatters]
- Sorry.
165
00:09:22,103 --> 00:09:23,980
You see, he's a little nervous.
166
00:09:23,980 --> 00:09:26,357
His girlfriend doesn't know
about all this yet.
167
00:09:26,357 --> 00:09:28,818
- Oh, so that's it.
- Yeah. I'm trying to keep him
168
00:09:28,818 --> 00:09:32,655
from losing his nerve, so anything you
can do to, you know, encourage him...
169
00:09:32,655 --> 00:09:34,699
I understand.
170
00:09:34,699 --> 00:09:37,952
- It got a little dusty.
- But you like it and it's the right size.
171
00:09:37,952 --> 00:09:41,956
- Sergeant, I really don't think...
- Fine. Uh... how much is it?
172
00:09:41,956 --> 00:09:44,709
- 17.50.
- Fine. My treat.
173
00:09:44,709 --> 00:09:47,629
- Sergeant, I can't let you do...
- Pyle, I insist.
174
00:09:48,713 --> 00:09:51,800
We also got your Tropical Romance
honeymoon package.
175
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,802
You know, five days and four nights
176
00:09:53,802 --> 00:09:55,929
of a ne'er-to-be-forgotten
romantic adventure
177
00:09:55,929 --> 00:09:58,932
to the strum of guitars
beneath your balcony,
178
00:09:58,932 --> 00:10:01,684
overlooking the moonlit sands of Guam.
179
00:10:02,435 --> 00:10:05,897
Hey, you got that? Guitars? A balcony?
180
00:10:05,897 --> 00:10:08,483
Now, don't tell me Lou-Ann
won't go for that!
181
00:10:08,483 --> 00:10:12,195
I suppose she would.
Lou-Ann does like guitar music.
182
00:10:12,195 --> 00:10:14,697
Sweet Leilani is one of her favorites.
But I don't think...
183
00:10:14,697 --> 00:10:17,534
What'll it be, gents?
Cupid's Delight or Tropical Romance?
184
00:10:17,534 --> 00:10:19,911
The Guam thing, with the guitars.
185
00:10:19,911 --> 00:10:22,747
299.98. 50 bucks deposit.
186
00:10:23,957 --> 00:10:25,500
Two hundred and ninety...
187
00:10:25,500 --> 00:10:29,170
That's nothing compared to
a lifetime of happiness.
188
00:10:29,170 --> 00:10:31,256
Consider it my wedding present.
189
00:10:31,256 --> 00:10:33,925
But I can't let you do that, Sergeant.
I just can't.
190
00:10:33,925 --> 00:10:37,178
Forget it, Pyle. It's my pleasure, really.
191
00:10:37,178 --> 00:10:39,305
- But it's just too much.
- Pyle!
192
00:10:40,265 --> 00:10:42,809
I've always felt that my men,
193
00:10:42,809 --> 00:10:45,353
not just you, but all my men,
194
00:10:45,353 --> 00:10:49,399
were... well, kind of my children.
195
00:10:50,692 --> 00:10:53,319
It's as close to being a father as...
196
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,864
...I'll ever get.
197
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:59,617
Go-Olly, Sergeant.
I never realized you felt that way.
198
00:11:00,660 --> 00:11:05,206
Well, you know it now,
so... let me do this for you.
199
00:11:06,332 --> 00:11:09,669
Well, Sergeant, you'll never know
how much I appreciate this,
200
00:11:09,669 --> 00:11:11,838
- but I just can't let you...
- Please!
201
00:11:12,714 --> 00:11:14,799
Let me do this for you...
202
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,010
...son.
203
00:11:17,010 --> 00:11:19,387
[blows nose]
204
00:11:22,599 --> 00:11:25,518
Well, Sergeant, do I really need this?
205
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:28,646
I always thought if I got married,
I'd wear my dress blues.
206
00:11:28,646 --> 00:11:32,317
Pyle, you've gotta forget about uniforms.
You're getting out.
207
00:11:32,317 --> 00:11:35,987
That's all behind you.
You gotta start thinking like a civilian.
208
00:11:35,987 --> 00:11:37,530
But, Sergeant...
209
00:11:37,530 --> 00:11:39,991
Don't you think the waist
is a little large?
210
00:11:39,991 --> 00:11:42,827
Well, he'll need that
for when he sits down.
211
00:11:42,827 --> 00:11:46,539
A natural drape, like Tony Martin wears.
212
00:11:46,539 --> 00:11:51,211
You hear that, Pyle? You can't get much
sharper than that, huh? [laughs]
213
00:11:51,211 --> 00:11:53,254
What's the matter, Pyle?
214
00:11:53,254 --> 00:11:57,508
Well, Sergeant, it's not that
I don't appreciate what you're doing,
215
00:11:57,508 --> 00:12:00,845
but, well, don't you think
we're rushing things a little?
216
00:12:00,845 --> 00:12:03,473
No. That's the whole idea.
217
00:12:03,473 --> 00:12:06,226
"He who hesitates..." you know. [laughs]
218
00:12:06,226 --> 00:12:08,519
But don't you think
I should at least talk to Lou-Ann?
219
00:12:08,519 --> 00:12:11,105
No, it's much more romantic this way.
220
00:12:11,105 --> 00:12:13,233
Women love to get swept off their feet.
221
00:12:13,233 --> 00:12:15,443
Well, I suppose so, but...
222
00:12:15,443 --> 00:12:17,445
well, the way things are happening,
223
00:12:17,445 --> 00:12:20,031
well, it's just not like
I imagined it'd be.
224
00:12:20,031 --> 00:12:22,867
Why? Did we forget something?
225
00:12:22,867 --> 00:12:26,621
Well, no, not a thing. That's just
the problem, you've done it all.
226
00:12:26,621 --> 00:12:30,917
- I don't get it.
- Well, don't misunderstand, Sergeant,
227
00:12:30,917 --> 00:12:33,753
you've been more than generous,
but, well...
228
00:12:33,753 --> 00:12:36,881
a marriage is something that happens
only once in a lifetime,
229
00:12:36,881 --> 00:12:39,259
and with something that special,
230
00:12:39,259 --> 00:12:43,304
it just don't seem right to have
somebody else do all the planning for you.
231
00:12:43,304 --> 00:12:46,641
Pyle, Pyle, Pyle.
232
00:12:47,433 --> 00:12:50,144
You just don't get it, do you? Huh?
233
00:12:50,144 --> 00:12:54,691
Now, trust me,
everything is gonna be fine.
234
00:12:54,691 --> 00:12:58,027
Now, let's see that big, happy smile.
235
00:12:58,945 --> 00:13:01,322
Come on now, for Dad?
236
00:13:03,408 --> 00:13:07,078
There we go. That's my boy!
237
00:13:08,579 --> 00:13:12,667
Believe me, you're gonna be
the happiest man on Earth!
238
00:13:13,501 --> 00:13:15,503
We're both gonna be.
239
00:13:21,301 --> 00:13:23,803
Nice. Real nice.
240
00:13:23,803 --> 00:13:26,597
Boy, with this and the honeymoon,
you should be out quite a bundle, Sarge.
241
00:13:28,224 --> 00:13:31,602
- It's only money.
- Couldn't you have them just elope?
242
00:13:31,602 --> 00:13:35,732
He might change his mind. This way,
with a big wedding and all the plans,
243
00:13:35,732 --> 00:13:38,609
he'll be in so deep,
it'll be impossible for him to wiggle out.
244
00:13:38,609 --> 00:13:42,238
So I'm out a few bucks.
It's the best investment I ever made.
245
00:13:42,238 --> 00:13:44,032
Well, I guess there's no real harm done.
246
00:13:44,032 --> 00:13:47,076
Lou-Ann's a sweet girl. She and Gomer will
probably have a very happy marriage.
247
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:52,915
Hm? Oh, sure, sure,
that could happen, too. [laughs]
248
00:13:54,625 --> 00:13:56,711
Hey, Sergeant. Duke.
249
00:13:56,711 --> 00:13:59,672
- [Duke] Hey, Gome.
- Well, Pyle, this is it, huh?
250
00:14:00,590 --> 00:14:03,676
- Sergeant, I...
- Not Sergeant. Vince.
251
00:14:03,676 --> 00:14:07,221
I want you to call me Vince.
Now, you might as well get used to it.
252
00:14:07,221 --> 00:14:09,849
There are no sergeants
in civilian life, right?
253
00:14:09,849 --> 00:14:13,353
I suppose so, Sergeant.
But about the wedding...
254
00:14:13,353 --> 00:14:16,314
Well, I just don't feel right
about you paying for everything.
255
00:14:16,314 --> 00:14:19,359
Well, don't you see? I want to, Gomer.
256
00:14:19,359 --> 00:14:21,861
Your happiness is my happiness.
257
00:14:21,861 --> 00:14:23,946
Now, you don't wanna be selfish, do you?
258
00:14:24,906 --> 00:14:26,866
Go-Olly, no!
259
00:14:26,866 --> 00:14:31,245
- But, well, you've just done so much.
- What? What have I done?
260
00:14:31,245 --> 00:14:34,957
Can a father ever really do too much
for his children?
261
00:14:34,957 --> 00:14:37,627
Well, there was the ring
262
00:14:37,627 --> 00:14:40,338
and the honeymoon and the suit.
263
00:14:40,338 --> 00:14:42,423
That's nothing. I saved the best for last.
264
00:14:42,423 --> 00:14:44,884
Come on, I wanna show you
the house I found for you.
265
00:14:44,884 --> 00:14:48,221
- A house?!
- Yeah. A regular honeymoon cottage,
266
00:14:48,221 --> 00:14:52,433
with a white picket fence, roses,
a fireplace, a garbage disposer.
267
00:14:52,433 --> 00:14:55,895
I got the lease right over here.
Let's see. There!
268
00:14:56,729 --> 00:14:59,607
Mr. and Mrs. Gomer Pyle, civilian.
How does that sound?
269
00:15:00,441 --> 00:15:03,361
Sergeant, don't misunderstand.
270
00:15:03,361 --> 00:15:05,405
I appreciate everything you're doing.
271
00:15:05,405 --> 00:15:08,866
But, well, I just don't know
if this is fair to Lou-Ann.
272
00:15:08,866 --> 00:15:11,911
I think she should have some say
in picking out her own house.
273
00:15:11,911 --> 00:15:15,915
- After all, she's gonna live there.
- Believe me, Pyle, she'll love it!
274
00:15:15,915 --> 00:15:18,334
Well, I guess,
but with something this big,
275
00:15:18,334 --> 00:15:20,628
maybe we better wait until she gets back
to find out...
276
00:15:20,628 --> 00:15:22,880
You mean about the house? Easy to fix.
277
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,175
Yeah, uh, we'll get Bunny to go along.
278
00:15:26,175 --> 00:15:28,553
Now, she's a woman
and she's got a woman's outlook,
279
00:15:28,553 --> 00:15:31,264
so she'll know exactly
what Lou-Ann will like, right?
280
00:15:32,140 --> 00:15:34,642
- Well, I suppose.
- Yeah, I'll give her a call right now.
281
00:15:34,642 --> 00:15:36,602
We'll all go over
and look at the house together.
282
00:15:37,228 --> 00:15:39,981
- [door buzzer]
- Vince, is that you?
283
00:15:39,981 --> 00:15:42,108
- [Carter] Yeah!
- Come on in.
284
00:15:43,151 --> 00:15:45,361
Oh, hi, Bun. You all set?
Pyle's waiting in the car.
285
00:15:45,361 --> 00:15:48,197
Just slow down, Vince.
Now, what's this all about?
286
00:15:48,197 --> 00:15:50,241
I told you on the phone,
Pyle's getting married!
287
00:15:50,241 --> 00:15:52,368
Lou-Ann never said anything
to me about it.
288
00:15:52,368 --> 00:15:54,787
That's the whole point.
She don't even know about it.
289
00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:56,914
A surprise wedding?!
290
00:15:56,914 --> 00:15:59,500
Yeah! Ain't that a great idea? [laughs]
291
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:02,211
- They're not even engaged.
- But they love each other, don't they?
292
00:16:02,211 --> 00:16:04,255
- Well, yeah.
- And they wanna get married, right?
293
00:16:04,255 --> 00:16:06,799
Well, yeah, they've talked about it,
but, Vince,
294
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:10,386
a girl's gotta have time
to plan for something like this.
295
00:16:10,386 --> 00:16:13,639
With a guy like Pyle, she could plan
all of her life and never get married.
296
00:16:13,639 --> 00:16:17,143
- That's why we gotta help them kids.
- But, Vince, picking out her house?
297
00:16:17,143 --> 00:16:21,981
Look, put yourself in her place.
If you were in love with some creep
298
00:16:21,981 --> 00:16:24,859
and you wanted to marry him,
but he wouldn't get off the dime,
299
00:16:24,859 --> 00:16:27,320
wouldn't you appreciate it
if somebody helped you get him?
300
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,698
Well, yeah, if that was
the only way I could get him.
301
00:16:30,698 --> 00:16:34,577
Well, believe me, that's the only way
she's gonna get Pyle. Come on!
302
00:16:35,328 --> 00:16:36,454
[Carter laughs]
303
00:16:51,636 --> 00:16:55,264
Well, there we are.
How's that for a honeymoon cottage?
304
00:16:56,557 --> 00:16:59,268
I tell you, Lou-Ann's gonna flip
when she sees it.
305
00:16:59,268 --> 00:17:02,188
Just the place for two lovebirds,
huh, Bunny?
306
00:17:02,188 --> 00:17:05,441
- Well, maybe...
- And look here. Your own front steps,
307
00:17:05,441 --> 00:17:07,693
your own window, everything!
308
00:17:08,528 --> 00:17:11,864
Bunny, you know Lou-Ann.
Do you really think she'll like it?
309
00:17:12,865 --> 00:17:15,451
Well, with a little fixing, maybe.
310
00:17:15,451 --> 00:17:19,038
A can of paint, a little grass seed,
and there you are!
311
00:17:19,038 --> 00:17:22,458
Oh, yeah, I can see the whole thing now.
312
00:17:22,458 --> 00:17:25,795
There you are, Gomer and Lou-Ann,
313
00:17:25,795 --> 00:17:27,838
Mr. and Mrs. Newlywed.
314
00:17:29,006 --> 00:17:32,593
They look at each other...
then without a word,
315
00:17:32,593 --> 00:17:35,763
he picks her up and over the threshold!
316
00:17:36,430 --> 00:17:38,099
[Carter laughs]
317
00:17:38,099 --> 00:17:41,227
- Huh? How does that sound to you?
- Heavenly.
318
00:17:41,227 --> 00:17:44,647
Now I ask you, is she gonna like it
or is she gonna like it?
319
00:17:44,647 --> 00:17:47,733
- She'll like it!
- Hm? You hear that, Pyle?
320
00:17:47,733 --> 00:17:52,071
Bunny goes for the place, so she's a lady,
and Lou-Ann's gotta be crazy about it.
321
00:17:52,071 --> 00:17:53,781
Could we see the rest of it?
322
00:17:53,781 --> 00:17:57,618
Oh, the inside
is just as great as the outside.
323
00:17:58,786 --> 00:18:01,998
Gomer, I know this is very personal
between you and Lou-Ann,
324
00:18:01,998 --> 00:18:04,333
but what would you say
coming up to my place tonight,
325
00:18:04,333 --> 00:18:07,753
before you tell her, so we can all
be in on the surprise together?
326
00:18:07,753 --> 00:18:12,842
We'll be glad to. After all the sergeant's
done, it's only fair you be part of it.
327
00:18:12,842 --> 00:18:15,803
Ooh, wonderful!
I'll have a nice dinner all ready.
328
00:18:15,803 --> 00:18:18,014
- Oh, she'll need a wedding dress.
- A wedding dress?
329
00:18:18,014 --> 00:18:20,182
Well, I'll take care of that.
I'll pick out two or three
330
00:18:20,182 --> 00:18:22,393
- and she can select the one she likes.
- Great!
331
00:18:22,393 --> 00:18:24,895
Go down right now and do it. Come on!
[laughs]
332
00:18:26,897 --> 00:18:29,817
- Here's the matching veil.
- [gasps] Oh!
333
00:18:29,817 --> 00:18:32,236
- Do you like it, Gomer?
- Uh...
334
00:18:33,195 --> 00:18:36,324
- Yeah, it's very nice.
- Well, could I take these three
335
00:18:36,324 --> 00:18:38,576
and then make the final selection at home?
336
00:18:38,576 --> 00:18:41,120
Certainly. I'll put them in a box.
337
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:43,998
- And I wish you much happiness.
- What?
338
00:18:43,998 --> 00:18:46,000
I said I wish you much happiness.
339
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:50,379
Oh! Well, they're not for me.
They're for a friend.
340
00:18:50,379 --> 00:18:52,965
Oh... I see.
341
00:18:52,965 --> 00:18:55,801
Well, I'll have these for you in a minute.
342
00:18:59,889 --> 00:19:03,017
How about that, Gomer?
She thought they were for me.
343
00:19:04,769 --> 00:19:06,103
Yeah, I guess she did.
344
00:19:09,649 --> 00:19:11,651
That's a pretty little thing.
345
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:15,488
Not much to it, but...
346
00:19:15,488 --> 00:19:18,324
you know, it's... it's kind of pretty.
347
00:19:18,324 --> 00:19:20,159
Lou-Ann's a lucky girl!
348
00:19:21,285 --> 00:19:25,331
I don't know, Miss Bunny.
I kind of figure I'm the lucky one.
349
00:19:25,331 --> 00:19:27,750
But still, I can't help
but be a little bit nervous,
350
00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:31,170
you know, with all these plans
and Lou-Ann don't know a thing about them.
351
00:19:31,170 --> 00:19:33,297
Here I've already got a house to live in
352
00:19:33,297 --> 00:19:35,800
and I ain't even asked her
to marry me yet.
353
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,469
How long have you been going
with Lou-Ann?
354
00:19:38,469 --> 00:19:40,638
Three years, 11 months and two days.
355
00:19:40,638 --> 00:19:44,642
Well, Gomer, a woman doesn't spend
that much time with one man
356
00:19:44,642 --> 00:19:46,227
unless she sees her future there.
357
00:19:47,478 --> 00:19:50,314
- Yeah, I guess you're right.
- Of course I'm right!
358
00:19:50,314 --> 00:19:52,650
Well, look at me and Vince.
I'd marry him tomorrow.
359
00:19:52,650 --> 00:19:57,154
But when a woman really loves someone,
she doesn't mind the wait.
360
00:20:04,203 --> 00:20:06,205
You know, that was a good idea of yours,
361
00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:09,125
having Pyle bring her here
to spring the surprise.
362
00:20:09,125 --> 00:20:12,628
Yes, sir, yes, sir, this is gonna be
quite an evening. [laughs]
363
00:20:12,628 --> 00:20:14,588
Vince, I think you're happier
than the groom.
364
00:20:14,588 --> 00:20:17,007
I am, I am! I wonder what's keeping them.
365
00:20:17,007 --> 00:20:21,387
Well, maybe Gomer couldn't resist and took
her off to some romantic place to propose.
366
00:20:21,387 --> 00:20:23,264
No, he promised to bring her here first,
367
00:20:23,264 --> 00:20:25,307
so we could all be in on the surprise
together.
368
00:20:25,307 --> 00:20:28,728
- Oh, well, we don't want her to see these.
- Huh?
369
00:20:28,728 --> 00:20:32,231
Wait a minute.
Take them all into the bedroom,
370
00:20:32,231 --> 00:20:35,609
and then when I call you,
you come out carrying one.
371
00:20:35,609 --> 00:20:37,611
That's how we'll spring
the good news on her.
372
00:20:37,611 --> 00:20:40,156
- Well, don't you think Gomer should...
- [door buzzer]
373
00:20:40,156 --> 00:20:42,575
[whispers] Must be them.
Go on in the bedroom.
374
00:20:45,369 --> 00:20:47,455
And remember,
don't come out until I call you.
375
00:20:47,455 --> 00:20:48,539
Okay.
376
00:20:53,878 --> 00:20:56,130
[chuckles]
377
00:20:56,130 --> 00:20:58,549
Well, well, well! Come in, come in!
378
00:20:58,549 --> 00:21:00,593
- Evening, Sergeant.
- Evening!
379
00:21:02,386 --> 00:21:04,180
This is real nice.
380
00:21:04,180 --> 00:21:07,808
- Where's Lou-Ann?
- Oh, she'll be here a little later on.
381
00:21:07,808 --> 00:21:10,853
Oh?
Then you didn't have no fight or nothing?
382
00:21:10,853 --> 00:21:13,731
Oh, no, nothing like that.
She called and said she was held up
383
00:21:13,731 --> 00:21:17,485
- and she'd be along about 8 o'clock.
- Oh, good. [chuckles]
384
00:21:17,485 --> 00:21:19,653
- Where's Miss Bunny?
- Oh, she's in there.
385
00:21:19,653 --> 00:21:22,740
So, we'll hold up Lou-Ann's surprise
for another hour.
386
00:21:22,740 --> 00:21:24,742
It'll be longer than that. [chuckles]
387
00:21:24,742 --> 00:21:27,912
In fact, there's no hurry at all.
You can wait all the time you want.
388
00:21:27,912 --> 00:21:30,873
- Huh?
- Well, from talking to Miss Bunny,
389
00:21:30,873 --> 00:21:33,751
I realized
it's never too late to get married,
390
00:21:33,751 --> 00:21:36,879
and, well, the longer I stay
in the Marines, the better it'll be.
391
00:21:36,879 --> 00:21:38,589
I'll be able to save more money,
392
00:21:38,589 --> 00:21:41,175
and Lou-Ann and me will get
to know each other even better,
393
00:21:41,175 --> 00:21:43,552
so... I've decided to reenlist!
394
00:21:44,428 --> 00:21:45,930
You decided to...
395
00:21:45,930 --> 00:21:47,973
And don't you see what else this means,
Sergeant?
396
00:21:47,973 --> 00:21:51,852
You haven't lost your chance
for happiness like you thought.
397
00:21:51,852 --> 00:21:54,271
Why, Miss Bunny said right out
she'd marry you tomorrow.
398
00:21:54,271 --> 00:21:56,273
- How's that for good news?
- [whimpers]
399
00:21:56,273 --> 00:21:59,693
So I stopped off and had the honeymoon
reservation changed to your name,
400
00:21:59,693 --> 00:22:01,862
and you can use this ring,
401
00:22:01,862 --> 00:22:04,323
and you can live
in that little honeymoon cottage.
402
00:22:04,323 --> 00:22:07,201
Sergeant, it'll be just like you said.
You'll come home at night
403
00:22:07,201 --> 00:22:11,038
and you'll see your dog wag his tail
and Miss Bunny will come out,
404
00:22:11,038 --> 00:22:14,708
Miss Carter, that is,
in a nice, ruffly dress.
405
00:22:14,708 --> 00:22:17,253
Let's give her the good news right now.
Miss Bunny?
406
00:22:17,253 --> 00:22:21,173
- Wait a minute!
- [hums bridal march]
407
00:22:22,675 --> 00:22:25,678
Guess what! You gonna wear those things
for real because the sergeant...
408
00:22:25,678 --> 00:22:28,055
Don't listen to him!
He don't know what he's saying.
409
00:22:28,055 --> 00:22:31,100
It's all the excitement and everything.
I better get him back to the base.
410
00:22:31,100 --> 00:22:34,353
- But what about the wedding?
- There ain't gonna be no wedding.
411
00:22:34,353 --> 00:22:36,939
I'll call you later. Forget everything!
412
00:22:36,939 --> 00:22:38,899
Take them things back to the store!
413
00:22:45,239 --> 00:22:47,825
To think, I came that close and I blew it!
414
00:22:47,825 --> 00:22:51,662
I had Pyle all set up
and Bunny has to put her two cents in.
415
00:22:51,662 --> 00:22:53,873
Well, Gomer could still change his mind,
you know?
416
00:22:55,082 --> 00:22:58,002
Yeah, he could, couldn't he?
417
00:22:58,002 --> 00:23:00,170
I mean, it might happen, knowing him.
418
00:23:00,170 --> 00:23:02,464
What if I had a talk with him?
What do you think?
419
00:23:02,464 --> 00:23:05,009
- It's possible.
- Yeah.
420
00:23:05,009 --> 00:23:07,887
Just him and me.
Leave the girls out of it.
421
00:23:08,846 --> 00:23:10,764
Why not?
422
00:23:10,764 --> 00:23:15,519
They don't call me ol' silver tongue
for nothing, huh? [laughs]
423
00:23:15,519 --> 00:23:18,647
- Hey, Sergeant! Duke!
- Pyle, just the fella I wanted to see.
424
00:23:18,647 --> 00:23:21,233
- You'll never guess what happened!
- No, this is more important.
425
00:23:21,233 --> 00:23:24,528
- I signed my reenlistment papers.
- Yeah?
426
00:23:24,528 --> 00:23:28,198
I got sworn in and everything.
I ran all the way over here to tell you.
427
00:23:28,198 --> 00:23:31,160
- You mean it's official?
- Ain't it wonderful, Sergeant?
428
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,080
Just think, we're gonna be together three
whole more years. I knew you'd wanna know.
429
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,666
- That's what you wanted all along, huh?
- Well, no, it wasn't.
430
00:23:37,666 --> 00:23:41,170
See, the first time the sergeant
called me in, I decided not to reenlist.
431
00:23:41,170 --> 00:23:43,005
You what?
432
00:23:43,005 --> 00:23:46,216
Well, I didn't think it was fair to make
Lou-Ann wait three more years,
433
00:23:46,216 --> 00:23:49,511
so I was gonna quit and get a job,
and that's what I'd come in to tell you.
434
00:23:49,511 --> 00:23:51,263
Then why didn't you?
435
00:23:51,263 --> 00:23:54,183
Well, don't you remember, Sergeant?
You wouldn't let me talk that day.
436
00:23:54,183 --> 00:23:57,978
You told me to take my time
and not tell you my decision then,
437
00:23:57,978 --> 00:24:00,773
that I might wanna change my mind
later on.
438
00:24:00,773 --> 00:24:04,276
- I said that?
- And you were so right!
439
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:06,570
It gave me a chance to talk to Miss Bunny
440
00:24:06,570 --> 00:24:09,406
and find out that if a woman really cares,
she'll wait.
441
00:24:09,406 --> 00:24:13,243
So I'm gonna go over and call Lou-Ann
right now. I just know she'll understand.
442
00:24:15,204 --> 00:24:18,207
Just think, Sergeant,
if you hadn't given me that talking to,
443
00:24:18,207 --> 00:24:20,417
I'd be a civilian right now.
444
00:24:20,417 --> 00:24:22,503
[chuckles]
445
00:24:22,503 --> 00:24:25,965
I guess they don't call you
ol' silver tongue for nothing. [laughs]
