[Eddie] Why do kids run away?

[Tom] Well, I don't know, Eddie.
You tell me.

[Eddie] I thought you knew everything.

[Tom] Well, uh, Eddie, I'm grown-up

and after a while you forget.
I'm not a kid anymore.

[Eddie] But you were once, weren't you?

[Tom] Yes, I was, but that
was a long time ago.

[Eddie] Oh, gee.

If I ever run away from home

I'm gonna miss Uncle
Norman and Billy Curberry

and Emily Ruth Gustafson
and Mrs. Livingston

but not arithmetic.

[Tom] Mm-hmm.

You, uh, you think you'll be
running away from home soon?

- No.
- Well, how come?

[Eddie] Arithmetic won't last forever.

[Tom] Ah, but after
arithmetic comes algebra.

[Eddie] Algebra?

[Tom] Uh-huh!

[Eddie] Gee, dad, if I
run away from home

will you run away with me?

Where do you think we
ought to run away to?

- How about Mexico?
- Why Mexico?

My Uncle Norman goes there a lot

and he says it's groovy.

Mexico is okay with me.

Is it okay if we don't run
away till Friday after lunch?

- Are you stalling?
- Heck, no.

It's just that Friday is the day

they have spaghetti in
the school cafeteria

and it's my favorite.

Okay. Friday.

That'll give us time
to get some supplies.

So far all we have is a loaf
of bread, a bar of soap

and a jug of peanut butter.

You think your dad will miss you?

Oh, sure, he will, but he won't worry.

I'm gonna tell him where we're going.

Oh, boy, are you ever stupid!

What do you mean I'm stupid?

If you tell your old man
you're gonna run away

he probably won't even let
you out of the house

to go to school!

Why would he do that?

You know, sometimes I think

you don't know anything, Eddie Corbett.

Okay, then, you can run
away by yourself.

Good, that's what I was gonna
do in the first place

till you butted in.

But, Joey--

We don't have to hang around
till Friday, either.

I'm gonna run away right this minute

right now, right this very minute!

But, Joey, you can't go alone.

Then you can't tell your
old man we're going.

They never let you go if you tell 'em.

Okay.

didn't turn out too badly.

Joey's now one of Eddie's best friends.

Yeah. Well, the feeling's
mutual, you know?

Yeah, she talks about him all the time.

Well, they're pretty happy kids, I guess

Joey, are you absolutely positive

that you want to run away?

- You bet I am.
- Forever?

If my pop stopped being engaged

from that dumb Sherry,
I might come home.

And I still don't see
why I can't go alone.

It's because you're a girl.

Guys can run away, but girls can't.

that Eddie has been stashing away

some supplies somewhere and...

Well, look, i-is anything
missing in your house?

Any food, uh...

No.

Well, now, wait a minute,
come to think of it

I did see her putting some
stuff in her lunch box

a pair of socks, uh, some PJs, you know?

Why do you suppose she'd do that?

Well, she said it was
just something goofy

she wanted to do.

Uh-huh, well, I may have

an overly active imagination,
but I really think

these two are planning
to run away together.

And I brought bandage and a thermometer.

What's the thermometer for?

In case one us don't feel good,
so we can take our temperature

and see if we really don't feel good.

Oh.

Joey, are you getting kinda
worried about running away?

Because if you change your
mind, it's okay with me.

You sure ask dumb
questions, Eddie Corbett.

I wish it was tomorrow

and we're already on our way to Mexico.

Mexico?

Yeah. I wonder what they
intend to use for plane fare.

Maybe they're gonna put
wings on their thongs.

Hm, well, it's Joey that
seems to be the one

that wants to run away.

- Well, I don't get--
- Shh-shh.

I don't get it. I don't get it.

What with her gonna have
a new mama and all.

You know, uh, maybe Joey
just isn't as happy

about this new mama as you think.

What do you mean?

Joey's had you all to herself

and in a sense, she's been
the only woman in your life

since her mother died.

Y-you mean, you think she's,
uh, jealous of Sherry?

I think there's a possibility, yeah.

Hm, well, you know, uh, she cooks for us

keeps the house, she
does a darn good job--

But, but the point of it is

she is going to have to give
up those responsibilities

to another woman.

Hm.

Well, maybe you're right.

Well, so what am I supposed to do?

I mean, what would you do,
assuming you're right?

Now, I, am I supposed to
just, uh, give up Sherry?

No, no, no, that's a tough
one, but I'll tell you

I don't think that giving up Sherry

is the answer for anybody.

Well, it might be the answer for Joey.

Not really, not really. It...

- It'll be just a postponement.
- Of what?

Accepting the fact that
one of these days

she is going to have to share you

with a real grown-up lady

and that all this time you and Joey

have only been playing house.

Yeah, but on the other hand, if
I go ahead and marry Sherry

and Joey's already bugged enough
to run away from home...

Well, I don't know.

Hm.

Look...

...if we kept an eye on 'em...

...why don't we just go
ahead and let 'em try it?

What for?

She might find out that not
being with you at all

is worse than having to share you.

Yeah. So we-we let 'em go just
like they planned, right?

Just like they planned.

Of course, we'll watch 'em like
a couple of mother eagles.

- Father eagles.
- Ah, father eagles.

Right.

[guitar music]

Joey, couldn't you have brought
along just one dress?

- What for?
- Girls look nice in dresses.

It's being a girl that got
me into all of this trouble

of not running away by myself.

Joey, I'm not gonna make it
anymore trouble for you.

I'm gonna make it easier.

But you're already making it harder

with that stupid talk
about bringing a dress.

Okay, okay, I'm sorry.

Besides, I brought my
mom's old manicure set

and that'll make me look
nice enough for anyone.

Manicures look even nicer with dresses.

Will you knock it off?
No dresses!

I'm just gonna give up
trying to understand you.

You don't like me no more.

I wouldn't be running away
with you if I didn't like ya

but I don't understand about
not bringing a dress.

And there's one thing I
really don't understand

so I'm not even gonna try.

What's that?

If I was getting a new mother

I'd be helping to plan the wedding.

Oh, yeah?
Just wait until you get one.

Then you'll feel different.

But why are you so mad at her?

I'd be mad at anyone my pop married.

You would? Why?

On account of my real
mother, that's why.

when he dropped off the TV set.
Seems like a very nice person.

I hope I can find as nice
a mother for Eddie.

Mm-hmm. I keep looking.

I mean, I and dad keep
looking all the time.

And the reason we keep looking

is because of Eddie's real mother.

She'd want us to have another one.

How do you know?

Well...

...you see, without a mother...

...you're not really a whole family.

And she'd want us to be a whole family.
