Original subtitles

HEY, LISTEN TO THIS.

"REGULAR $6.50 VALUE.

"SPECIAL PRICE TILL THE END OF THE MONTH,

$1.95."

SAY! THAT'S A BUY!

WHAT IS IT, GOOBER?

IT'S AN IMITATION ALLIGATOR WALLET.

ALLIGATOR?

YOU HEAR THAT, ANDY?

YEAH.

"WITH A SECRET COMPARTMENT FOR YOUR LARGE BILLS...

AND YOUR CHOICE OF THREE INITIALS."

$1.95?

OOH.

THAT'S VALUE, ALL RIGHT.

YOU NOW, WE ALL OUGHT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT.

YOU GONNA GET ONE, ANDY?

I DON'T THINK SO.

ME NEITHER.

I DON'T GUESS I'LL GET ONE EITHER.

UNCLE FLOYD, GOOBER, ANDY -- BIG NEWS. BIG NEWS.

YUP, COULD BE THE BIGGEST THING

THAT EVER HAPPENED TO MAYBERRY.

WELL, WHAT IS IT?

I'LL TELL YOU THIS MUCH -- IT IS BIG.

WHAT IS IT?

LONG-DISTANCE CALL FROM RALEIGH.

NOW, HOLD ON TO YOUR CHAIRS, EVERYBODY.

THE GOVERNOR HAS ACCEPTED OUR INVITATION

TO TAKE PART IN THE FOUNDER'S DAY CELEBRATION.

YOU'RE KIDDING. THE GOVERNOR?

COMING TO MAYBERRY? IN PERSON.

AND NOT ONLY IS THE GOVERNOR HIMSELF COMING,

BUT THEY'RE SENDING DOWN THEIR MOBILE MUSEUM

TO DISPLAY IN THE CEREMONIES. HOW ABOUT THAT?

THEIR MOBILE MUSEUM!?

WHAT IS THAT?

WELL...

IT'S A MUSEUM IN A TRAILER, GOOBER.

I SAW IT ONCE UP IN RALEIGH.

IT'S GOT ALL KINDS OF HISTORICAL THINGS

THAT DATE BACK TO THE FOUNDING OF THIS COUNTRY.

NO FOOLING.

YEAH, THEY HAVE OLD COINS,

PAINTINGS, SWORDS WORN BY FAMOUS GENERALS, JEWELRY...

THEY EVEN HAVE A LAVALIERE

THAT WAS ACTUALLY WORN BY MARTHA WASHINGTON.

MARTHA WASHINGTON'S LAVALIERE!

RIGHT HERE IN MAYBERRY.

ANDY, THIS IS BIG.

WE OUGHT TO HAVE A BIG CELEBRATION

WITH THE GOVERNOR COMING AND ALL THAT, RIGHT, ANDY?

GOOBER'S RIGHT. MAYBE A PARADE AND DECORATIONS.

WE'LL DECORATE THE WHOLE TOWN.

MAYBE WE CAN REACTIVATE THE MAYBERRY MARCHING BAND.

WELL...ARE THOSE FOUR FELLOWS STILL IN TOWN?

AS FAR AS I KNOW.

NOW, WAIT. IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THIS,

WE OUGHT TO DO IT RIGHT.

LET'S HAVE A MEETING

OF THE MAYBERRY FOUNDER'S DAY COMMITTEE THIS AFTERNOON

AND MAKE SOME PLANS.

THAT'S THE TICKET, ANDY, ORGANIZATION.

COME ON, WARREN. YEAH.

ANDY, JUST A MINUTE.

FELLAS...FELLAS,

I'VE GOT AN IDEA FOR A SLOGAN FOR THIS WHOLE THING.

THIS IS JUST TOP OF HEAD.

LET'S SEE WHAT YOU THINK.

"MAYBERRY FOUNDER'S DAY...

MAY MAYBERRY NEVER FOUNDER."

WELL, IT... WAS JUST A THOUGHT.

NOW, WE WANT TO MAKE THIS

A REAL BANG-UP CELEBRATION, RIGHT?

YEAH. RIGHT.

THAT MEANS WE ALL

HAVE TO PUT OUR SHOULDERS TO THE WHEEL.

I THINK I HAVE THE LUNCHEON RECEPTION PRETTY WELL-PLANNED.

I THOUGHT, FOR THE FIRST COURSE...

I-I KNOW IT'S AMBITIOUS,

BUT I THINK THE GOVERNOR WILL BE IMPRESSED.

Andy: WHAT?

SHRIMP COCKTAILS.

OH!OH! OH!OH!

OH, THAT'S EXCELLENT.

WAIT. I CAN'T BE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN.

I HAVE TO SEE WHETHER

I CAN ROUND UP ANY COCKTAIL FORKS.

DID YOU SAY 25 FOR LUNCHEON?

ABOUT 25.

I THOUGHT FOR THE MAIN COURSE,

WE WOULD HAVE CHICKEN A LA KING.

WE GIRLS COULD PREPARE IT AT HOME

AND BRING IT OVER TO THE CITY HALL

IN OUR BIG ROASTING PANS.

YEAH, THAT OUGHT TO WORK. THAT'LL WORK.

AND, FOR DESSERT,

I THOUGHT WE'D HAVE LADY FINGERS AND COFFEE.

OH, THAT ALL SOUNDS PERFECT TO ME.

THAT'S EXCELLENT.

NOW, NOW, WAIT A MINUTE.

ABOUT THE PARADE -- THAT'S YOU, ISN'T IT, FRANK?

YEAH, YEAH.

HAVE YOU GOT ANY IDEAS ON THAT?

SURE, I GOT ALL MY NOTES.

HERE'S THE WAY I'VE GOT IT PLANNED.

WE MEET THE GOVERNOR'S CAR AT THE EDGE OF TOWN

AND FORM A LINE THERE. GOOD.

WE'LL START THE PROCESSION

WITH THE BAND. CHECK, JOHN?

CHECK.

THAT'LL BE FOLLOWED BY THE SQUAD CAR WITH ANDY.

BY THE WAY, HAVE YOU DECIDED

WHO IS GOING TO DO THE OFFICIAL GREETING?

WELL, WITH THE MAYOR ON VACATION IN HAWAII,

I THOUGHT WE'D GET HARRY BOSWORTH.

THE HEAD OF THE DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER

AIN'T LIKE THE MAYOR.

IT WAS THE BEST I COULD DO.

HARRY MAKES A NICE APPEARANCE.

YEAH, AND HE'S A GOOD TALKER.

OKAY.

THEN, AFTER THE SQUAD CAR COMES THE GOVERNOR'S CAR.

THEN I WANT AN OPEN CONVERTIBLE WITH THE TOP DOWN.

UH...WHO'S IN CHARGE OF TRANSPORTATION?

I AM.

THINK YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF THAT?

I CAN BORROW EARLIE GILLEY'S.

YEAH, EARLIE WILL LOAN YOU HIS.

WHAT'S IT FOR, FRANK?

WELL, I WANTED SOMETHING DIFFERENT,

AND I GOT TO THINKING

THAT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE GROW AROUND HERE IS POTATOES.

THAT'S RIGHT.

IT WOULD BE KIND OF NICE

TO HAVE OUR POTATO QUEEN IN THE PARADE.

WHO IS THE QUEEN THIS YEAR?

OLD MAN DOBBINS' DAUGHTER.

OH, THAT'S RIGHT, IT I HER TURN.

SO I THOUGHT WE'D HAVE A NICE CROWN OF POTATOES

AND HAVE HER RIDING IN AN OPEN CONVERTIBLE IN A BATHING SUIT.

IN A BATHING SUIT?! ON MAIN STREET?

IT'LL BE OKAY.

OH, YEAH, IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

AND THEN BRINGING UP THE REAR,

I'M TRYING TO GET SAM EPLEY ON HIS MOTORCYCLE.

OH!OH! OH!OH!

THAT WILL MAKE A FINE PARADE.

YOU'VE GOT IT VERY WELL-ORGANIZED, FRANK.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

NOW, WAIT. NOW, WAIT.

FLOYD, YOU'RE IN CHARGE OF THE DECORATIONS --

BUTTONS AND EVERYTHING.

RIGHT, ANDY. I'LL HAVE THIS TOWN

A WHOLE MASS OF RED, WHITE, AND BLUE.

HOW DOES THAT STRIKE EVERYBODY?

OH, THAT'S GOOD.

ANDY? YES.

WHERE YOU GOING TO PUT THE SPEAKER STAND?

I'M GLAD YOU ASKED THAT.

OH, THAT'S OKAY.

I THOUGHT WE WOULD PUT THE SPEAKER STAND

RIGHT BETWEEN THE COURTHOUSE

AND THE BARBER SHOP. OKAY?

AND THEN I THOUGHT WE'D PUT THE MUSEUM

BY THE TOWN SQUARE, NEAR WHERE WE KEEP THE CANNON.

MAKE A NICE SETTING FOR IT.

ANDY? AS HEAD OF TRANSPORTATION,

WILL I BE IN CHARGE OF THE MOBILE MUSEUM?

WE'LL GET TO THAT.

NOW, JOHN, THE MARCHING BAND --

WHAT SHAPE IS IT IN?

WELL, TO BE TRUTHFUL, ANDY,

WE HAVEN'T DONE ENOUGH REHEARSING TO KEEP REAL SHARP,

BUT I'LL GET TOGETHER WITH THE BOYS.

I WISH YOU WOULD. REMEMBER LAST LABOR DAY.

I REMEMBER.

NOW, THE MOBILE MUSEUM --

I CHECKED ON IT, AND IT'S GOING TO HAVE

A LOT OF JEWELS AND VALUABLE THINGS IN IT.

THEY'RE GOING TO BRING IT IN THE DAY BEFORE FOUNDER'S DAY

AND LEAVE IT HERE THROUGH THE CELEBRATION.

OH, THAT SHOULD BE VERY INTERESTING.

YES, AND WE ARE REQUIRED

TO KEEP A CONSTANT GUARD ON THAT.

NOW, WARREN -- YES, ANDY.

THAT'LL BE YOUR JOB. CAN YOU HANDLE THAT?

PUT YOUR MIND AT EASE. THE MARINES HAVE LANDED.

GOOBER, YOU CAN RELIEVE WARREN

EVERY COUPLE OF HOURS.

SURE, ANDY. DO I GET A UNIFORM, TOO?

YOU'LL BE WORKING UNOFFICIALLY. YOU WON'T NEED IT.

I DIDN'T ASK YOU.

I THINK WE MIGHT

DIG UP A UNIFORM FOR YOU, GOOBER.

WELL, THAT ABOUT TAKES CARE OF EVERYTHING.

WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME, SO LET'S GET TO WORK.

BOY, EVERYTHING REALLY DOES LOOK NICE, DOESN'T IT?

IT SURE DOES.

JUST AS NICE AS CAN BE.

NOW, RIGHT THERE IS WHERE WE'LL PUT THE MOBILE MUSEUM.

THAT'S A GOOD IDEA, ANDY. YEAH.

HEY, ANDY.

HMM?

I'LL BET THIS OLD BABY SAW SOME ACTION, HUH?

OH, I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED.

ANDY, I JUST HAD AN IDEA.

YEAH?

DON'T SAY NO BEFORE YOU HEAR ME OUT.

EXTEND ME THAT COURTESY.

THIS FOUNDER'S DAY CELEBRATION WITH THE GOVERNOR COMING --

IT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT DAY YOU'VE HAD IN MAYBERRY IN YEARS.

AM I RIGHT? YEAH.

HUH? YEAH, I EXPECT.

A FITTING OCCASION TO FIRE THE CANNON.

FIRE THE CANNON? CAN'T YOU SEE IT?

WITH THE PARADE, THE BAND, THE SPEECHES,

AND MISS POTATO QUEEN

AND THEN TO CLIMAX IT ALL -- BOOM! WE FIRE THE CANNON.

NO, WARREN.

THIS OLD CANNON PROBABLY HASN'T BEEN FIRED

IN OVER A HUNDRED YEARS.

YOU'RE TAKING A NEGATIVE ATTITUDE.

I MADE A STUDY OF BALLISTICS AT THE SHERIFF'S ACADEMY. NO. NO.

YOU KNOW, ANDY, YOU HAVE A TENDENCY

TO BE VERY STUBBORN AT TIMES.

THAT'S RIGHT, SO YOU MIGHT AS WELL FORGET ABOUT

FIRING THE CANNON, BECAUSE WE AIN'T GOING TO FIRE THE CANNON.

ANDY, I WAS JUST GOING OVER THE ROUTE OF THE PARADE.

THE ROUTE OF THE PARADE?

IT'S JUST GOING TO BE THREE BLOCKS.

ANDY, ANDY --

THE MOBILE MUSEUM JUST ROLLED IN.

IT STOPPED AT THE FILLING STATION

A FEW MINUTES AGO. I TOLD THE MAN WHERE TO PARK.

GOOD. WARREN, YOU AND GOOBER BETTER GET OVER THERE.

WE GOT TO KEEP A CONSTANT GUARD ON THAT.

RIGHT, ANDY.

COME ON, GOOBER.

WELL, WARREN, I DON'T HAVE MY UNIFORM ON YET.

OH, GOOBER.

HI.

I'M THE... SHERIFF'S DEPUTY.

AND I'M GOOBER.

YOU'RE THE FELLOW I'M SUPPOSED TO GIVE THE KEY TO.

THAT'S RIGHT.

OH, HERE ARE MY AUTHORIZATION PAPERS.

THEY'RE IN ORDER.

I'LL BE BACK ABOUT 5:00 TOMORROW TO PICK IT UP.

SURE. FINE.

SEE YOU.

BOY, I BET THEY GOT SOME GREAT STUFF IN THERE.

GOOBER, LET'S REMEMBER WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR, HUH?

WHO'S GOING TO TAKE THE FIRST SHIFT?

I WILL, BUT YOU'D BETTER COME BACK IN ABOUT AN HOUR.

I'LL PROBABLY BE READY FOR A COFFEE BREAK THEN.

ALL RIGHT, WARREN, A HOUR.

I'M GOING TO GO PUT ON MY UNIFORM.

WARREN, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE GUARDING THE MUSEUM.

GOOBER, THERE'S SOMETHING STUCK DOWN THERE.

WHAT IF THERE IS? YOU LEFT YOUR POST.

I CAN SEE THE TRAILER FROM HERE.

SEE IF YOU CAN MAKE OUT WHAT THAT IS.

COME ON.

UH...I'M SORRY.

THE MUSEUM WON'T OFFICIALLY OPEN TILL TOMORROW.

OH, I'M SORRY, SHERIFF.

WE DIDN'T KNOW. WE JUST GOT INTO TOWN.

WELL, COME BACK TOMORROW AND YOU CAN GO RIGHT THROUGH IT.

THANK YOU, WE WILL. COME, DEAR.

GOODBYE. GOODBYE.

WARREN, IT'S PITCH BLACK.

DON'T YOU SEE ANYTHING DOWN THERE?

NO, I CAN'T SEE A THING.

WHICH ONE OF YOU IS SUPPOSED TO BE ON DUTY?

WARREN IS. I JUST COME OVER TO RELIEVE HIM.

ANDY, I'M JUST TEN FEET AWAY.

AND I DISCOVERED SOMETHING.

THERE'S SOMETHING STUCK DOWN THERE.

NOW, IF WE CAN FIND OUT WHAT IT IS...

I WANT YOU TO QUIT FOOLING WITH THIS OLD CANNON

BEFORE YOU BLOW SOMETHING UP.

DON'T YOU SEE? IF WE CAN FIND WHAT'S DOWN THERE AND CLEAR IT,

THERE'S A DARN GOOD CHANCE I CAN GET THIS BABY TO FIRE.

WHAT A TRIBUTE THAT WOULD BE TO THE GOVERNOR.

ONE OF YOUR UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS.

WARREN, I TOLD YOU ONCE AND I'M TELLING YOU AGAIN --

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO FIRE THIS CANNON.

THEY REMIND ME OF THE KEYSTONE KOPS.

IF THAT'S THE MAYBERRY POLICE FORCE,

THIS OUGHT TO BE A PUSHOVER.

CITIZENS OF MAYBERRY,

IT GIVES ME GREAT PLEASURE

TO WELCOME YOU ON THIS MEMORABLE OCCASION.

AM I GIVING IT ENOUGH VOLUME, ANDY?

OH, IT SOUNDS FINE TO ME, HARRY.

SOUNDS GOOD TO ME.

YEAH.

WE CERTAINLY APPRECIATE YOU DOING THIS FOR US, HARRY.

SHERIFF, WE IN THE DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER

LOOK UPON OURSELVES AS PUBLIC SERVANTS,

AND SO, WHENEVER WE CAN SERVE...

WELL, WE CERTAINLY APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU, ANDY.

HOW'S THE BAND, JOHN?

WELL, STILL A LOT OF ROUGH SPOTS.

OH.

THAT'S WHEN THEY'RE PLAYING STANDING STILL.

MARCHING AIN'T GONNA HELP NONE.

WELL, I KNOW THEY'LL DO THE BEST THEY CAN.

YEAH.

JESSE EARLE HAGEN IS COMING OVER FROM MT. PILOT

TO PLAY BASS.

OH, GOOD.

ANDY, I THINK WE OUGHT TO GET THE PARADE ORGANIZED.

BY THE TIME WE GET SET AND LINED UP,

THE GOVERNOR OUGHT TO BE HERE.

OKAY. OKAY.

UH, LISTEN, I'M GONNA GO GET THE SQUAD CAR.

YOU GET THE BOYS AND LINE THEM UP, OKAY?

UH...HEY, HARRY!

HUH HEY, HARRY, LISTEN.

WE'RE GONNA START LINING UP NOW.

WOULD YOU MIND STAYING HERE

AND GETTING THE FOLKS UP ON THE STAND

THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE UP THERE?

OH, SURE, SURE. THANKS, HARRY.

HIYA, ANDY. EVERYTHING OKAY?

OH, SURE, SURE, YEAH.

OH, ANDY, I FOUND OUT WHAT WAS STUCK IN THE CANNON.

A CANNON BALL.

SORT OF SETS YOUR MIND TO WORK, DOESN'T IT?

NO, IT DOESN'T, WARREN.

WE'RE GOING TO START TO FORM.

I WANT YOU TO KEEP THE MUSEUM LOCKED

TILL AFTER THE SPEECHES ARE MADE.

THAT'S WHEN EVERYBODY'S GONNA WANT TO GO THROUGH.

SURE, YEAH. I WAS IN THERE BEFORE.

THEY GOT SOME WONDERFUL THINGS.

AS A MATTER OF FACT,

I PREPARED A FEW REMARKS TO MAKE --

FOR WHEN PEOPLE ARE FILING THROUGH.

THAT'S FINE.

FOLKS, AS YOU ENTER THIS MUSEUM,

YOU WILL NOTICE THE SACRED MEMENTOS

FROM OUR GLORIOUS PAST...

THAT'S FINE.

...MEMENTOS WHICH WILL ENABLE YOU TO RELIVE

THE FOUNDING OF THIS GREAT NATION.

EXCELLENT, WARREN.

I THOUGHT IT'D APPEAL TO YOU, ANDY.

NOTICE AS YOU ENTER ON YOUR RIGHT, A PRICELESS LAVALIERE

FIRST WORN BY THE FIRST LADY OF THE FIRST PRESIDENT.

THAT'S NOT TOO BAD.

THAT CLOWN SHOULDN'T GIVE US ANY TROUBLE.

AND THE SHERIFF'S OUT OF THE WAY.

WELL, I'M GOING OVER THERE NOW.

WE WON'T MAKE OUR MOVE

TILL EVERYBODY'S AROUND THE STAND

LISTENING TO SPEECHES.

OKAY, I'LL WAIT RIGHT HERE.

OH, HI. HOWDY.

GEORGE ARCHER, STATE POLICE.

OH, GLAD TO KNOW YOU.

UH, WARREN FERGUSON, MAYBERRY SHERIFF'S OFFICE.

WELL, HAVE YOU GOT THE KEYS?

KEYS? YEAH, TO THE MUSEUM HERE.

DON'T TELL ME THEY FORGOT TO SEND AN ORDER AGAIN.

I SWEAR, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING IN RALEIGH.

THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THEY'VE DONE THIS.

OH? THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO SEND AN ORDER

TO THE LOCAL OFFICE THAT WE'RE GONNA TAKE OVER.

NOW, WOULDN'T THAT GET YOUR GOAT?

UH, IT SURE WOULD.

YOU'D THINK THE LEAST THEY COULD DO IS TELL US.

WELL, WHAT DO WE DO NOW?

I'M SUPPOSED TO BE RESPONSIBLE

FOR THE CONTENTS OF THE MUSEUM WHEN IT'S OPEN,

BUT YOU'RE NOT AUTHORIZED TO TURN THE KEYS OVER TO ME.

FRANKLY, I WOULDN'T BLAME YOU IF YOU DIDN'T.

GOSH DARN IT.

UH, WAIT A MINUTE, NOW.

GEORGE, IS IT? YEAH.

GEORGE, UH, WARREN.

LOOK, JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE TWIDDLING THEIR THUMBS

UP IN RALEIGH, THAT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.

NO, BUT... NOT YOUR FAULT AT ALL.

YOU'RE HERE. YOU'RE DOING YOUR DUTY.

YOU'RE CLEAN.

AS I SEE IT, THIS IS NO TIME

FOR, UH, FORMALITIES, RIGHT, GEORGE?

RIGHT, RIGHT.

SO, HERE YOU ARE. HERE ARE THE KEYS.

THANKS, WARREN.

OH, THAT'S OKAY, GEORGE.

SAY, THEY DON'T GIVE YOU STATE BOYS

MUCH IN THE WAY OF INSIGNIAS, DO THEY?

I MEAN, NOT EVEN A BADGE.

WELL, UH...CONFIDENTIALLY, THEY DON'T WANT THIS TO LOOK

TOO MUCH LIKE A POLICED OPERATION.

YOU KNOW, IT MAKES PEOPLE UNEASY.

SURE, SURE.

WELL, AT LEAST THAT SHOWS THE BRASS UP IN RALEIGH

ARE USING THEIR HEAD

FOR SOMETHING BESIDES A HAT RACK, HUH?

OH, HAT RACK!

WELL, WE'LL SEE YOU, GEORGE.

WE'LL JUST PUSH THIS OVER IN THE CORNER

SO YOU CAN GET UP THE STAIRS.

UH-HUH.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

I IMAGINE WE'LL BE ABLE TO HEAR THE BAND

WHEN IT STARTS PLAYING.

OH, YES!

THE PARADE WILL PROBABLY TAKE,

UH, THREE MINUTES.

YOU FIGURE THEY'LL DO A BLOCK A MINUTE, HUH?

ABOUT.

I HOPE THE GOVERNOR ARRIVES ON TIME.

WELL, I'M SURE HE'S GOING TO TRY,

BUT YOU KNOW STATE BUSINESS AND EVERYTHING.

BUT I TOLD THE GIRLS TO TAKE THE SHRIMP

OUT OF THE REFRIGERATOR AT 1:00 SHARP.

WARREN, WHO'S THAT FELLA BY THE MUSEUM?

OH, HE'S ALL RIGHT. HE'S STATE POLICE.

THEY TAKE OVER WHEN THE MUSEUM OPENS.

ANDY DIDN'T SAY NOTHING ABOUT THAT.

I KNOW. RALEIGH GOOFED.

YOU KNOW WHAT I FOUND IN HERE?

NO. HUH?

NO, WARREN! A CANNON BALL.

A CANNON BALL? STUCK RIGHT IN THERE.

I BET THAT'S BEEN IN THERE A LONG TIME.

MAYBE EVEN A WHOLE CENTURY. COULD BE.

I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF THIS COULD STILL FIRE.

YOU'RE NOT DOING THAT AFTER WHAT ANDY SAID?

OH, NO, NO.

NO, IT'S JUST I'M INTERESTED IN OLD GUNS.

SORT OF A HOBBY WITH ME.

BOY, I WISH I COULD GET A BETTER LOOK

AT THAT FIRING MECHANISM, THOUGH.

[ CROWD CHEERING, MARCHING BAND PLAYS ]

THERE THEY ARE!

THERE THEY ARE! OH!

OH!

ISN'T THAT IMPRESSIVE?

BEAUTIFUL SIGHT.

BAND SOUNDS GOOD.

OH!

UH, GOVERNOR, I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET HARRY BOSWORTH

THE HEAD OF OUR DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER.

IT'S AN HONOR, SIR.

AND MR. FRANK CHASE,

AND THIS IS MY AUNT, MISS BEATRICE TAYLOR.

VERY PLEASED TO MEET YOU.

AND FLOYD LAWSON.

IT'S A PLEASURE, YOUR HONORABLE,

HIS EXCELLENCY, THE JUDGE...

UH, AND, UH,

OF COURSE YOU'VE MET SHARON DOBBINS.

YES, I'VE HAD THE PLEASURE.

OH, WELL, THANK YOU.

WELL, UH, WON'T YOU ALL THEN SIT DOWN?

ANDY, WOULD YOU...?

OH, YES.

UH, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

IT IS A GREAT PRIVILEGE AND A PROFOUND HONOR

TO INTRODUCE THIS GREAT MAN

WHO HAS TAKEN TIME OUT FROM HIS BUSY SCHEDULE

AS THE GOVERNOR OF OUR STATE

TO COME DOWN HERE AND HELP US...

...AND SO, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

IT GIVES ME GREAT PLEASURE

TO WELCOME THE GOVERNOR OF OUR GLORIOUS STATE,

THE HONORABLE GEORGE C. HANDLEY.

GOOD PEOPLE OF MAYBERRY,

I AM DEEPLY HONORED TO HAVE BEEN INVITED BY YOU

TO TAKE PART IN MAYBERRY'S FOUNDER'S DAY CEREMONY.

YOU SEE ANYTHING YET?

NO. IT'S LIKE THE BLACK HOLE OF CALCUTTA DOWN THERE.

YOU DON'T HAVE A MATCH, DO YOU? SOMEWHERE.

AT LEAST I'LL BE ABLE TO SEE WHAT'S IN THERE NOW.

I HAVE ALWAYS FELT

THAT MAYBERRY WAS ONE OF THE FEW TOWNS LEFT IN AMERICA

WHERE ONE COULD ENJOY TRUE PEACE AND TRANQUILLITY.

WHAT WAS THAT? UH, I DON'T KNOW.

YOU GO RIGHT ON WITH YOUR SPEECH, GOVERNOR,

AND I'LL GO FIND OUT.

ALL RIGHT, IS ANYBODY HURT IN THERE?

OH, NO.

HE SHOT A STATION WAGON.

I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T KNOW...

ALL RIGHT, WARREN, YOU WOULDN'T LISTEN, HUH?

ANDY... YOU FOLKS ALL RIGHT?

LOOK! STAY OUT OF IT, GOOBER!

IT LOOKS LIKE THE STUFF FROM THE MUSEUM. WHAT?

OH, YEAH -- THE TWO TOURISTS FROM YESTERDAY.

I CAPTURED A COUPLE OF CROOKS.

GOOBER, ANDY, I CAPTURED A COUPLE OF CROOKS!

BE QUIET! BE QUIET!

LISTEN, ARREST 'EM.

TAKE 'EM TO THE CITY HALL AND HOLD 'EM.

I GOT TO GET BACK.

GOT YOU, ANDY. ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO.

HANDS UP, HANDS UP, HANDS UP.

COME ON, GOOBER.

ALL RIGHT, NO FALSE MOVES OR IT'S CURTAINS FOR YOU.

...AND IN CONCLUSION,

I WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND MY SINCEREST WISHES

FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUCCESS AND PROGRESS.

UH, WHAT WAS THE NOISE, SHERIFF?

UH, THE NOISE WAS A ONE-GUN SALUTE

IN YOUR HONOR, SIR.

WELL, I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND IT --

HOW THAT OLD CANNON COULD GO OFF AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.

WELL, THAT COULD ONLY BE ONE THING, ANDY. YEAH?

YOU SEE, THAT GUNPOWDER WAS IN THERE ALL THESE YEARS JUST LIKE THE CANNONBALL.

OH? OH, SURE.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER THIS

FROM SHERIFF'S ACADEMY OR NOT.

BUT, YOU SEE, THAT WAS UNDOUBTEDLY BLACK GUN POWDER IN THERE.

OH. YOU KNOW THAT'S WHAT THEY USED IN THOSE DAYS.

IS THAT RIGHT? SURE.

AND BLACK GUNPOWDER DOESN'T WEAKEN OVER THE YEARS.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, IT GETS STRONGER.

THESE ARE FACTS I'M GIVING YOU, ANDY.

INDISPUTABLE.

DID THEY TEACH YOU ANY INDISPUTABLE FACTS

LIKE YOU NEVER TURN OVER A VALUABLE THING LIKE A MUSEUM

TO ANYBODY WITHOUT AN AUTHORIZATION?

I WAS WAITING FOR THAT, ANDY. I WAS WAITING FOR THAT.

ANDY, I'M GOING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING

THAT WILL SHED A WHOLE NEW LIGHT ON THIS THING.

OH?

NOW, YOU SEE, WHEN THAT FELLA FIRST CAME UP TO ME,

THERE WAS SOMETHING ABOUT HIM THAT DIDN'T ADD UP.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? DIDN'T ADD UP.

WELL, I HAVE AN INSTINCT FOR THAT THING ANYWAY.

SO I FIGURE BY STAYING AROUND THE CANNON,

I COULD KEEP A WEATHER EYE ON HIM...JUST IN CASE.

YEAH. ANDY, THERE WAS NOTHING ON MY MIND

BUT THE SAFETY OF THE CONTENTS OF THAT MUSEUM.

OH, I KNOW YOU MAY NOT BELIEVE THAT. THAT'S SMART THINKING.

YOU DO BELIEVE IT? NO.

YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT? THAT'S RIGHT.
