[scatting]

Uh, alright now, Indian Pals.

The, uh, the first item on our agenda

I mean on our birch parchment...

The first item is to
pick a permanent chief

for our tipi. Now.

I thought you were our chief, dad.

Yeah, well, no, I'm only, uh

I'm only the temporary chief, Eddie

since we are the hosts
for the first meeting.

Now, I guess, uh, well, all the fathers

could throw their feathers into
a hat and we could draw them.

Uh, but, uh, uh, but, Corbett, I believe

the rules call for a volunteer.

[Tom] Volunteer?

Oh, uh, yes, you're right, doctor.

I'll volunteer.

[Tom] Oh, uh, uh, good, good. Um...

Alright, uh, thank you, Dr. Lockwood.

Are there any other volunteers
from the fathers here for, uh...

...for, for this, for chief?

♪♪

Uh, this is for chief.

Yes, well, uh, Dr. Lockwood

it looks like, uh, like you're it.

Uh, I'd like to say
congratulations to you.

Thank you very much, thank you.

- Your feathers.
- Right.

And now, here are the credentials

on how to run an Indian--

I don't need those, I've
memorized all of those.

Well, let's hear it for chief.

Thank you.

Well, as a chief of this
tipi of Indian Pals...

Wanna come over and get the
drums, son? We made it.

As chief of this, uh, tipi of
Indian Pals, I hereby declare

that our tipi has been organized

in accordance with the
duly constituted rules

of the Indian Pals of
America Incorporated.

Let us now all participate in the
official membership pledge.

[clears throat]

Oh, great spirit...

[all] Um-ta-wa.

Who watches over the forests, the rivers

the streams, the great plains,
the mountains, the valleys...

[all] Um-ta-wa.

[Dr. Lockwood] Who watches over the
animals, the trees and the birds.

We the fathers and sons of the Indians

pledge that we too will watch over...

[all] Um-ta-wa.

What are they?

- Indians.
- Huh?

- Pretend Indians.
- Um-ta-wa.

[Lockwood] ...the animals, the trees...

Here's the article Tom
wants me to get. Shh.

This we have written in the sun.

And in the moon

and in the stars.

It is also written that to bug the chief

is to invite the wings of many
hawks to flutter on your eye.

Let's... We go.

Alright, uh, Little Indian braves

now you turn and face, uh,
the big Indian braves.

Alright, and clasp their hands

and get ready for the salute.

Here we go.

Salute.

[all] Um-ta-wa.

This meeting of the Indian
Pals is concluded.

[chuckles]

- Hey...
- Attaboy.

Very good, very good,
very good, very good.

[kids ululating]

Well, how'd you like it, sport?

I thought it was great, pal.

But I still wish you were chief.

Hey, I'm your chief.
Don't you ever forget it.

Um-ta-wa, neato.

Ah, Corbett, next
meeting, wear a feather.

[knock on door]

- Hao.
- Hao.

Big Tom talk with forked tongue.

Mm-hmm, well, beside the fact that

you witnessed part of our
initiation last night

What makes you say that?

By your attitude, it's
obviously not a good morning.

Well, Norman...

It is just the modern day complexities

of running a gigantic magazine.

The constant kaleidoscopic juxtaposition

of one problem to another.

I was right.

Big Tom do talk with forked tongue.

Norman, with your knowledge
of the Indian idiom

you should really be part of our tribe.

But you can't be.

No, 'cause this is for
fathers and sons only.

We call ourselves Indian Pals.

The idea is for fathers and sons
to spend more time together.

Hey, that sounds terrific,
but it seems to me

you spend enough time
with Eddie already.

Well, this is a little
different, though.

You see, this has, has all
the Indian trappings to it.

We organize a tipi.

We meet once a week at a different home.

- Hogan.
- What?

It's the Indian word for home. Hogan.

Alright, we meet once a
week in a different hogan.

Unless you're Mescalero.
Then it's called a wicki--

Norman, what's the difference?

The point of it is you spend time

working on a project together.

We do. Like this week for example

we're working on Indian names.

We're gonna make badges.

Next week we're gonna do
an Indian rain dance.

- Rain dance?
- Yeah.

Look, Norman, speaking of projects...

Why don't we start calling
you Big Working Norman

instead of Big Talking Norman?

I go with the swiftness of the wind.

Norman, don't trip in your wickiup.

Ooph.

What is this?
Executive pressure?

Like father, like son, like secretary.

Wasn't my idea.

- It happens to be the style.
- Yeah?

Well, thank you very much,
Princess Mini Ha-Ha.

- Ha-ha.
- Ha-ha-ha.

- Ha-ha-ha. Heh.
- Ha-ha.

[sighs]

Thank you, Tina.

- Tina.
- Yes.

Do you know what a hogan is?

Uh, yes, it's a Navajo house.

Unless you're a Mescalero,
and then it's a wickiup.

Get out.

- Hey, Dad.
- Yeah.

Read the list from the top, okay?

Alright.

We have Digging Beaver.

Say big and little, Dad, I like that.

Oh, alright.

Ah, Big Digging Beaver,
Little Digging Beaver.

Big Flying Fox, Little Flying Fox.

Flying Fox? Hmm?

- Better scratch that one out.
- Yeah, we got...

You're right.

Okay, we have Big Hawk, Little Hawk.

Big Golden Arrow, Little Golden Arrow.

Say that one again, Dad.

Big Golden Arrow, Little Golden Arrow.

I saw that one in a book
at school once, Dad.

- Oh, yeah?
- Big Golden Arrow.

And Little Golden Arrow.

- You like that one, huh?
- Yeah.

Big Golden Arrow.

Okay, Little Golden Arrow.

[together] Pals.

- Oh, thank you, Eddie.
- It's okay, Tina.

Um, these are going to be gorgeous.

But you know what?

All the credit for them
goes to you, Eddie.

Because you're the one that
picked out the names.

Little Golden Arrow and
Big Golden Arrow.

That's what gave me the
idea for the sequins.

Yeah, that was a neat idea.

- Our sequins.
- Thank you, Eddie.

[Eddie] Gee.

If Mrs. Levingston hadn't
had her class tonight

you wouldn't have been here.

To keep me from worryin'
about those badges.

Well, when your daddy came in and said

that he would be tied up tonight

I was more than glad to help out.

Gee, maybe he won't get untied up

until it's too late to
go to the pow-wow.

I wouldn't do that to you, sport.

- Hi, Dad.
- Hello, Indian.

Dad, wait till you see the
badges Tina made for us.

- They're gorgeous.
- Gorgeous.

Do you like them?

Oh, well, Tina, they're uh, uh, the--

- Gorgeous.
- Yeah, they're gorgeous.

[sighs] Sequence. Wow.

You know what, I bet all the others

will have the regular kind
of Indian badges with, ah

burnt wood and leather and
all that obvious stuff--

Burnt wood and leather, yeah.

And all that obvious stuff.

Yeah, yeah, well, Tina, we-we certainly

appreciate you putting in the time.

Don't thank me, Mr. Corbett.
Just enjoy.

Uh, Mrs. Livingston left a cold
plate in the fridge for you.

Thank you.

- Bye!
- Bye.

[door closes]

They're terrible, dad.
They're really sissy.

What are we gonna do?

Well, Eddie, y-you know, since

Tina put in so much of her
own time making 'em, uh

and besides that, they're
the only ones we've got.

We'll wear 'em...

...with as much pride as possible.

♪♪

[clamoring]

Okay, relax.
Losing control. Here.

Here, relax. Danny!

Oh, wow!

- Hello, Corbett.
- Hi there. Hi.

- Hi, Eddie.
- Hi, Danny.

Now, we-we seem to have a
little conflict in names here.

Yeah, so, so we have. Yeah.

Yeah, well, we can't
have that, we'll have

to do something about that.

We can't have two boys
with the same name.

I got mine from a book at school.

So did I.

Well, you, uh, tsk...

You two sure have a couple
of great badges there.

Well, thank you.

Well, I see no reason why
we shouldn't, uh, start.

Danny, you want to, uh,
beat the tom-tom, huh?

Sure.
Come on, Eddie.

O-okay.

[Lockwood] Corbett, you
could've put a little more

effort into this project.

I mean, uh...

I'm sure that if you and
your son had really

put your heads together, you
could've come up with something

a little more suitable
than, uh, sequence.

Fathers and sons working
together, Corbett.

That's the name of the game.

Uh, yes, um, I'll try to remember that.

Yeah. Rain dance, next week, Corbett.

Little more thought, hm?

Alright, alright, alright.
Come over here.

Let's get ourtipiin order.

[sighs] Eddie, I'm very sorry
about those badges today.

Well, that's okay.

Well, I was very proud of you

for giving up your name the way you did.

That was a very generous
thing for you to do.

Well, I was just being fair.

That's part of being Indian pals.

Yes, it is.

- Give us a kiss.
- Okay.

- Hey, dad.
- Yeah?

Could we get to work on that
rain dance for-for next week?

Oh, you just better believe
that we'll work hard on that.

- Okay?
- Okay.

- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.

♪♪

Oh, Great Spirit, help my dad

'cause he's gonna need it.

Oh, Great Spirit

when we do our rain dance

you get out your galoshes.

Okay, now, come on. Everybody's
going to concentrate.

- Okay?
- Right.

Alright, ready?
Uh, now, Tina, go.

[drum beats]

[chuckles]

Tina, straighten up.

Alright.
Play your tom-tom.

One, two, three...

[drum beats]

Alright.
Now together and...

[chanting] And, hold.

[chanting] And, hold.

You know that's not exactly the way

the Iroquois did the rain dance.

That's a little closer
to the Narragansetts.

Well, we are not Iroquois

or Narragansett, we are Sassaquoi.

You know, I gotta hand it to you, Tom.

You actually came up
with an Indian tribe

I know very little about.

That wasn't hard to do, Norman.

- I just looked in the book.
- It's a terrific book.

Why don't you look over in this
end of the couch, Norman.

There's a lot of work to be
done for the next issue.

Yeah, I know, you know, but what
you're doing is very interesting

for someone who's very
interested in Indians.

Norman, look.
Learn. Lurk.

- Dang, fella, much--
- One, two, three, and...

[chanting]

And, halt. Good.

[chanting]

- And, halt. Got it? Good.
- Got it.

You know the Sassaquois
have a rain dance in here

that's much simpler than
the one you're doing.

Norman, we like the
regular way. Just two...

[tribal chanting]

And, hold.

Yep, that's the way we like it.

I bet we have the best father
and son dance of anybody.

Right! One, two, three...

[drum beats]

Tina!

Tina!

Here. Okay, ready?

Okay. Tina?

[drum beats]

Good.

[chanting]

[groans]

Excuse me, excuse me,
I hate to interrupt.

- Just give me one--
- Fine, now just keep the beat.

Ready? And...

[chanting]

Great! And...

[chanting]

You know, I really have to be going.

I can't work all the time.
Your work is great.

When I get down to the office,
I'll do it down there.

Because all this activity is really...

[knock on door]

Don't worry about returning
the tom-tom, Tom.

It's okay, come in.

Hello, Norman.

Hi, Tom, Old Father Feather.

- Mm-hmm.
- Wow, wow.

How did it go last night after I left?

Well, we struggled through.
Hey, Norman.

Now, look, you got any
shots ready for me?

We got a deadline, you know.

I think I'll be ready to put together

a layout by 6 o'clock.

Oh, Norman, I'd be gone by then.

Don't worry, I can handle it.

[chuckles] Okay, if you say so.

I'll bring the shots by your house.

Don't worry. I won't stay.

Tai, kemosabe.

Tai, kemosabe on you.

Norman speak with fore chest.

- Scissors, please.
- Scissors.

Thank you, sport.

Look, I didn't know it was
gonna take this long, Eddie.

I had no idea how much trouble
the Indians went through.

It's not gonna take much longer.

I am afraid it will, sport.

You don't wanna be too
tired to do a rain dance

tomorrow night, now, do you?

Oh, gee, dad, I hardly
even got to do a thing.

Yeah, well, I know that, sport.

But the official Sassaquoi headdress

is a little harder than I thought.

Right, Norman?

I'm sorry, pal. I'm just here
to work on the pictures.

- Eddie.
- Hm?

- Sorry.
- Okay.

- Goodnight, Uncle Norman.
- Goodnight, champ.

Listen, uh, you go ahead
and brush your teeth

and I'll come in say good night, okay?

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Eddie?
- Yeah.

Listen, don't you worry about it.

I will have two of the best headdresses

in the world for you, first
thing tomorrow morning.

Terrific.

[door closes]

[sighs] Norman, I need help.

Hmm...

Hmm...

Uh-huh.

- Well, that's one of 'em.
- You like it?

Well, yeah, but it could use
a little more work, Norman

like in here, you know.

Tom, it took you an
hour to make this one.

Then you have another one to make.

Then, after that we still
have the work to do on--

I know that, Norman.

[doorbell rings]

Norman, who is that?

It's your apartment.

- Oh, now I get it.
- What you got?

Now I know why you've been trying

to get all this work done so quickly.

You have a late date meeting here.

Don't you? Dr. Lockwood?

[Lockwood] Sorry to barge in
on you like this, Corbett

but I am chief of the tribe
and I was making my rounds.

Yeah, well, please, come,
come in, won't you?

Oh, I, uh, would have called

but all the channels on
my car phone are busy.

Uh, I think w-we've met before?

[Norman] Tinker, Norman Tinker.

Oh, yes, my business associate.
Dr. Lockwood.

Y-you met me before the
last meeting you had.

I walked in the door a little bit.

I know all about you. Tom talks
about you all the time.

You were in the war,
combat gynecologist.

That's right, that's right.

Would you care for a drink?

No, no, I'll take a rain check.

Well, I'll have one.

Say, that's very good, Corbett.

Very good. Where's yours?

- Oh, that's mine.
- Oh, where's Eddie's?

[Tom] W-we were just
working on it when you--

Interrupted!

You know, you're not a bad guy, Corbett

but, uh, you do this all wrong.

Oh, I-I do, do I?

Yeah, the purpose of Indian pals

is to have fathers and sons

relate to each other as pals.

[applause]

Terrific.

Uh, do-do you have a son, Tinker?

No, but just having a child,
just becoming a parent

doesn't make somebody a father.

That's right.

That's the, that's the reason

for Indian pals.

But he doesn't need Indian pals.

Now, maybe you have some guilt
in relating to your own son

but Tom and Eddie Corbett
get along terrific.

Uh, Norman, as a good friend of yours

and someone who loves
you a lot, shut up.

Thank you, Corbett.

No, I'm not gonna shut up.

You know the reason you get
into so much trouble, Tom

is because you spend so
much time with Eddie.

Y-your work just comes sec...

You don't need big chief running mouth

to come over here to
change your lifestyle.

Uh, who's going to help
you with the feathers?

I'll do it myself.

[Lockwood] Wrong.

- How did you get on my side?
- I didn't.

The purpose of, uh, Indian
pals is fathers and sons.

- The important word is "And."
- Platitudes, doctor.

Assuaging your guilt with
some cockamamie club.

If the whole world was like Tom
Corbett and his son, Eddie--

Wrong.

Now, how did you get on his side?

- He's right.
- He can't be.

Thank you, Corbett.

Doctor...

[sighs]

I'm afraid...

...that I've been competing with you.

Hmm.

Yes, I was, I was envious
of your badges.

And I apologize. I was wrong.

[chuckles] You know... I thought
I was being a father...

...but you, uh, you were right.

The important word

is "And."

Fathers and sons.

I'll drink to that.

- Hi, dad.
- Hey, good morning, sport.

Good morning, dad.
Where are they?

- Where, where are what?
- The headdresses.

Oh, those?
Well, I stopped making 'em.

- You stopped?
- Yes, I did.

After making one of them.

How come?

Well, I think we should do 'em together.

You and I, so I'm gonna come home
this afternoon at 4 o'clock

and you and I are gonna spend
the rest of the afternoon

doing 'em together.

- Together?
- Together.

Neato, that's what makes it
really fun, doing it together.

Mm-hmm, and like our Chief
Big Golden Arrow says

"Fathers and sons."

That is the name of the game.

Right, little pal?

Right, big pal.
I think you are terrific.

Well, I think you are pretty
terrific yourself, yeah!

Alright, pull now.
Pull, pull. I better...

Oh, ah, the little man
is gonna get a hernia.

Hey, I know what I'm
going to teach you now.

- What?
- Indian attack.

[screaming]

[thunder rumbling]

Uh, I think it's going to rain.

- Yeah?
- Hmm.

What are we going to do
after we drop that off?

What do you have in mind?

Mm. You still have my skate key?

Would you like me to
go up your apartment

and tighten your skates?

[knocking on door]

Guess they are not home
from the rain dance yet.

[thunder rumbling]

- Oh, you poor boys.
- Pals!

Well, whatever you are,
you are all soaked.

Yeah, we are drenched.

That storm sure came up in a hurry.

You wouldn't say that if you
had seen our rain dance.

[chanting]

- Dad, what does it mean?
- Whatdoes what mean?

[Eddie] "You can't see
the forest for trees."

[Tom] Oh, oh, well, that means when
you get too close to something

you can't see it.

[Eddie] That's not true, dad. I
can see you and you can see me.

[Tom] Yes, but I'm not a forest,
and you are not a tree.

[Eddie] Dad, what does it mean?

[Tom] Um, w-what does what mean?

[Eddie] "You can't see the
forest for the trees."

[Eddie] You know how I'll
know when I'm all grown up?

[Tom] How?

[Eddie] I'll have a
little boy who'll keep

asking me questions.
