American history began:

When the pilgrims stepped
On that wet rock.

There's your start right there.
73
00:03:03,317 --> 00:03:04,685
But they came from england.
74
00:03:04,718 --> 00:03:06,954
Yes, that's where
It really started.
75
00:03:06,987 --> 00:03:08,889
Before 1620.

00:03:10,358 --> 00:03:11,425
Yes, goober.

I'd say something.

00:03:14,995 --> 00:03:16,264
Fine.

00:03:16,297 --> 00:03:19,333

Of started... Way back.

Well, somebody else?
85
00:03:39,653 --> 00:03:41,489
Uh, of course
There were settlers
86
00:03:41,522 --> 00:03:43,957
Before the pilgrims--
Captain john smith.
87
00:03:43,991 --> 00:03:46,894
Yes, I was about
To mention that.
88

Oh, I was wondering.
89
00:03:48,529 --> 00:03:50,364
Did the pilgrims and john smith
90
00:03:50,398 --> 00:03:51,865
Come over for the same reason?
91
00:03:51,899 --> 00:03:54,435
Pretty much, I'd say--
Religious freedom.

Many different nationalities.

In new england.

Goober?
185
00:08:01,882 --> 00:08:03,917
Well, for goodness sakes.
186
00:08:03,951 --> 00:08:06,620
I forgot to take
My razor on the trip.
187
00:08:06,654 --> 00:08:08,188
Well, you know, I like it.
188
00:08:08,221 --> 00:08:11,191
You know, it makes you look
Like a scientist
189
00:08:11,224 --> 00:08:13,026
Or ambassador or something.
190
00:08:13,060 --> 00:08:14,161
Aw...
191
00:08:14,194 --> 00:08:16,096
You look like
A beau I used to have.
192
00:08:16,129 --> 00:08:17,798
He wore a beard.
193
00:08:17,831 --> 00:08:19,667
You know,
It was a strange thing.
194
00:08:19,700 --> 00:08:22,235
He had brown hair and blue eyes
195
00:08:22,269 --> 00:08:24,304
And his beard came out red.
196
00:08:24,337 --> 00:08:26,273
He was just a riot of color.
197
00:08:26,306 --> 00:08:27,775
Yeah.
198
00:08:27,808 --> 00:08:29,843
Well, I got to be going
In the barber shop.
199
00:08:29,877 --> 00:08:31,845
You know,
It's very flattering, goober.
200
00:08:31,879 --> 00:08:32,846
Thank you.
201
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,048
Even a philosopher.
202
00:08:45,025 --> 00:08:46,627
Well, hey, floyd.
203
00:08:46,660 --> 00:08:48,696
Something I can do
For you, sir?
204
00:08:48,729 --> 00:08:50,230
Goober!
205
00:08:50,263 --> 00:08:52,099
I forgot to
Take my razor.
206
00:08:52,132 --> 00:08:54,067
Oh, I'll be!
207
00:08:54,101 --> 00:08:56,737
We haven't had a beard
In this town for ten years.
208
00:08:56,770 --> 00:08:58,639
Turn your head.
209
00:09:01,174 --> 00:09:04,845
Son, you grow a nice beard.
210
00:09:04,878 --> 00:09:08,315
Well, I come down to get
You to shave it off.
211
00:09:08,348 --> 00:09:09,917
Shave it off?!
212
00:09:09,950 --> 00:09:11,084
Never.
213
00:09:11,118 --> 00:09:12,720
Shape it, maybe,
214
00:09:12,753 --> 00:09:14,822
Comb it, but shave it?
215
00:09:14,855 --> 00:09:15,923
Never!
216
00:09:15,956 --> 00:09:18,358
I'll never be
A party to that.
217
00:09:18,391 --> 00:09:22,362
Oh, it's magnificent.
218
00:09:22,395 --> 00:09:23,764
It is?
219
00:09:23,797 --> 00:09:26,166
Makes you look real brainy.
220
00:09:30,303 --> 00:09:33,306
You know you're the third person
That's told me that.
221
00:09:35,976 --> 00:09:39,279
[ andy's voice echoing ]
You really look different--
A thinker.
222
00:09:39,312 --> 00:09:41,381
[ aunt bee's voice ]
Even a philosopher.
223
00:09:41,414 --> 00:09:45,619
[ floyd's voice ]
Real brainy...
Brainy... Brainy...
224
00:09:47,821 --> 00:09:49,056
A masterpiece!
225
00:09:49,089 --> 00:09:51,158
Well, you look like
A different man, goober.
226
00:09:51,191 --> 00:09:52,392
Changed.
227
00:09:52,425 --> 00:09:54,662
[ chuckling ]
A man don't change, floyd.
228
00:09:54,695 --> 00:09:56,730
A man's himself,
And if he's himself,
229
00:09:56,764 --> 00:09:57,965
How can he change?
230
00:09:57,998 --> 00:10:01,669
Oh! You said something
Deep then, goober
231
00:10:01,702 --> 00:10:03,236
Real deep.
232
00:10:04,738 --> 00:10:07,007
I never had a beard
Trimmed before, floyd.
233
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,742
How much I owe you?
234
00:10:08,776 --> 00:10:09,910
Oh, please.
235
00:10:09,943 --> 00:10:11,712
Don't insult me.
236
00:10:11,745 --> 00:10:13,981
Well, you got a free
Radiator flush coming
237
00:10:14,014 --> 00:10:15,415
Anytime you need it.
238
00:10:15,448 --> 00:10:17,084
I think it's remarkable.
239
00:10:17,117 --> 00:10:19,019
That beard
Makes you look like
240
00:10:19,052 --> 00:10:21,388
You were thinking
About something.
241
00:10:21,421 --> 00:10:22,923
I was.
242
00:10:22,956 --> 00:10:25,425
I was thinking that all
Of us have a lot in us
243
00:10:25,458 --> 00:10:27,360
That we don't let come out
244
00:10:27,394 --> 00:10:30,998
And I've had this beard
Inside of me a long time
245
00:10:31,031 --> 00:10:32,766
And I was
Holding it back.
246
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,736
Oh-oh!
Another deep one.
247
00:10:35,769 --> 00:10:37,137
Hey, floyd.
248
00:10:39,206 --> 00:10:41,775
Hey, you kept it on.
249
00:10:41,809 --> 00:10:43,243
Yeah?
250
00:10:43,276 --> 00:10:44,845
Hey, that's
Really something.
251
00:10:44,878 --> 00:10:46,680
You did a fine
Job, floyd.
252
00:10:46,714 --> 00:10:48,048
Thank you, andy.
253
00:10:48,081 --> 00:10:49,683
Oh, yeah.
254
00:10:49,717 --> 00:10:51,952
That's as good-lookin'
A beard as I ever saw.
255
00:10:51,985 --> 00:10:54,421
I feel like I was
Born with it on.
256
00:10:54,454 --> 00:10:56,790
Yeah, well, I'll tell
You one thing...
257
00:10:56,824 --> 00:10:58,025
Uh, hold it, andy.
258
00:10:59,359 --> 00:11:00,794
I'm not through.
259
00:11:00,828 --> 00:11:02,930
You've got to let him
Finish his thoughts
260
00:11:02,963 --> 00:11:05,332
'cause he's got
Some zingers.
261

It seems like the me

Is coming out
All over my face.

See what I told you?
265
00:11:15,776 --> 00:11:18,145
You wouldn't want
To have missed that.
266
00:11:18,178 --> 00:11:19,412
No.
267
00:11:19,446 --> 00:11:22,115
Andy,
What are they talking about
268
00:11:22,149 --> 00:11:24,151
In our discussion group tonight?
269
00:11:24,184 --> 00:11:27,187
Oh, I think it's
The monroe doctrine.
270
00:11:27,220 --> 00:11:31,224
Well, I might just go home
And study up on that a little.
271
00:11:31,258 --> 00:11:33,226
You know, the monroe doctrine
272
00:11:33,260 --> 00:11:36,329
Is one of the most important
Doctrines in american history
273
00:11:36,363 --> 00:11:39,733
And the only way to discuss it
Is intelligently.
274
00:11:39,767 --> 00:11:42,402
That's got to
Be brung out.
275
00:11:52,813 --> 00:11:55,215
Amazing!
276
00:11:55,248 --> 00:11:56,917
Only this morning

00:11:56,950 --> 00:11:59,820
He didn't know which side
To butter his bread on.
278
00:11:59,853 --> 00:12:03,490
A few hours later,
He's a genius.
279
00:12:03,523 --> 00:12:08,061
It could only happen
In america.
280
00:12:10,197 --> 00:12:13,033
I wonder, in reading over
This material,
281
00:12:13,066 --> 00:12:16,870
Did you realize the tremendous
Impact it had on the world?
282
00:12:16,904 --> 00:12:19,372
It was the first time we
Told the european nations
283
00:12:19,406 --> 00:12:20,974
To stay out of our backyard.
284
00:12:21,008 --> 00:12:22,943
And we were prepared
To enforce it.
285
00:12:22,976 --> 00:12:24,044
Absolutely.
286
00:12:24,077 --> 00:12:25,245
[ door opening ]
287
00:12:33,153 --> 00:12:34,822
Sorry I'm late, folks.
288

Howard:
Hey, a beard.
289
00:12:36,456 --> 00:12:37,457
Yep.
290
00:12:37,490 --> 00:12:39,059
It's very becoming,
Goober.
291
00:12:39,092 --> 00:12:40,293
Thanks, helen.
292
00:12:40,327 --> 00:12:42,529
Well, I did
The groundwork on it.
293
00:12:43,964 --> 00:12:46,133
I've been doing
A lot of studying.
294
00:12:46,166 --> 00:12:48,235
Fine, fine.
295
00:12:48,268 --> 00:12:50,871
Writ a lot of
Things down.
296
00:12:50,904 --> 00:12:52,205
Good.
297
00:12:52,239 --> 00:12:55,976
Uh, we're talking
About the monroe doctrine.
298
00:12:56,009 --> 00:12:59,579
Now, here we were--
A young nation
299
00:12:59,612 --> 00:13:02,282
Without much of an army
Or a navy--
300
00:13:02,315 --> 00:13:05,385
And we said to these
Powerful european nations
301
00:13:05,418 --> 00:13:07,420
"Stay out of our hemisphere."
302
00:13:07,454 --> 00:13:09,823
Now, in view of this,
Why do you think
303
00:13:09,857 --> 00:13:12,359
The monroe doctrine
Was so effective?
304
00:13:12,392 --> 00:13:13,827
Uh, bill...
305
00:13:13,861 --> 00:13:15,162
Goober?
306
00:13:19,532 --> 00:13:24,237
The way I see it is...
The united states was new
307
00:13:24,271 --> 00:13:27,140
And europe,
Across the water, was old...
308
00:13:27,174 --> 00:13:29,142
And the united states was little
309
00:13:29,176 --> 00:13:30,610
And europe was big.
310
00:13:30,643 --> 00:13:33,914
You all remember shorty watson--
Had the grocery store?
311
00:13:33,947 --> 00:13:36,216
He was the shortest one
Of all them watsons?
312
00:13:36,249 --> 00:13:37,951
Just a minute, goober,
I don't see...
313
00:13:37,985 --> 00:13:39,086
Howard...
314
00:13:40,954 --> 00:13:43,223
Well, once,
Me and some other "Fellers"
315
00:13:43,256 --> 00:13:46,393
Went fishing with shorty
Up around troublesome creek.
316
00:13:46,426 --> 00:13:48,929
Little old shorty's like
The united states was
317
00:13:48,962 --> 00:13:50,230
Before the
Monroe doctrine.
318
00:13:50,263 --> 00:13:51,598
The rest of them "Fellers"
319
00:13:51,631 --> 00:13:54,034
Were like them
Powerful european countries.
320
00:13:54,067 --> 00:13:57,070
Because shorty was small,
He had to be on the tough side
321
00:13:57,104 --> 00:13:58,238
So them other "Fellers"
322
00:13:58,271 --> 00:14:00,107
Wouldn't be taking
Advantage of him.
323
00:14:00,140 --> 00:14:02,475
So when the united
States of america
324
00:14:02,509 --> 00:14:04,011
Got to be like shorty
325
00:14:04,044 --> 00:14:05,913
They must've decided
To be tough, too
326
00:14:05,946 --> 00:14:08,548
And that's when they went
And writ the monroe doctrine.
327
00:14:08,581 --> 00:14:10,283
...And the important thing is
328
00:14:10,317 --> 00:14:12,352
That when these folks
Here in hawaii
329
00:14:12,385 --> 00:14:14,521
Thought they had
A big enough country--
330
00:14:14,554 --> 00:14:17,490
Even though they wasn't exactly
In our hemisphere--
331
00:14:17,524 --> 00:14:21,161
They decided they wanted
To become the 49th state.
332
00:14:21,194 --> 00:14:23,530
Are you with me
On that, bill?
333
00:14:23,563 --> 00:14:25,498
Right with you.
334
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,670
And this other country
Up here, by the name of alaska
335
00:14:30,703 --> 00:14:33,006
Said they wanted
To become a state, too.
336
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,908
Of course, they was
In our hemisphere
337
00:14:34,942 --> 00:14:37,978
And the way I figure it,
They should've got the nod first
338
00:14:38,011 --> 00:14:40,080
But that weren't
The way it worked out.
339
00:14:40,113 --> 00:14:41,681
...And when the apaches
Come back
340
00:14:41,714 --> 00:14:43,917
The settlers was all
Behind some rocks
341
00:14:43,951 --> 00:14:45,318
And they was ready for 'em.
342
00:14:45,352 --> 00:14:47,587
There was 14 men,
12 women and 16 children.
343
00:14:47,620 --> 00:14:49,156
I believe I have
To go, too.
344
00:14:49,189 --> 00:14:50,290
I've got an early day.
345
00:14:50,323 --> 00:14:52,125
I'll tell you
The rest next week.
346
00:14:52,159 --> 00:14:53,293
Oh, good, good.
347
00:14:53,326 --> 00:14:55,228
I sure enjoy
Studying history this way
348
00:14:55,262 --> 00:14:57,364
Listening to all
The different opinions.
349
00:14:57,397 --> 00:15:01,501
I met him on the street,
And he went on and on and on.
350
00:15:01,534 --> 00:15:03,536
Oh, I know-- he hasn't
Stopped talking
351
00:15:03,570 --> 00:15:05,638
Since he walked
Out of the barber shop.
352
00:15:05,672 --> 00:15:07,107
About everything--
353
00:15:07,140 --> 00:15:09,242
Politics, the
Space race...
354
00:15:09,276 --> 00:15:10,343
And how to tell
355
00:15:10,377 --> 00:15:12,179
When a watermelon is ripe.
356
00:15:12,212 --> 00:15:13,646
Mmm.
357
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,549
I went over to the gas station
To get some air in my tire
358
00:15:16,583 --> 00:15:19,019
And I just asked him
How come he grew a beard.
359
00:15:19,052 --> 00:15:20,687
What'd he tell you?
360
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,722
Well...
361
00:15:22,755 --> 00:15:25,058
It was kind of confusing...
362
00:15:25,092 --> 00:15:28,962
But I know it had something
To do with the monroe doctrine.
363
00:15:28,996 --> 00:15:30,563
I'm telling you
It's a problem.
364
00:15:30,597 --> 00:15:32,699
Before, he didn't have
Enough confidence
365
00:15:32,732 --> 00:15:34,301
And now he's got too much.
366
00:15:34,334 --> 00:15:36,103
I never thought
I'd see the day
367
00:15:36,136 --> 00:15:38,705
When I was scared
To meet goober on the street.
368
00:15:38,738 --> 00:15:40,440
Me, too.
369
00:15:40,473 --> 00:15:42,575
And somehow, it's
Very hard
370
00:15:42,609 --> 00:15:44,711
To interrupt
A man with a beard.
371
00:15:55,688 --> 00:15:56,689
Hey, helen...
372
00:15:56,723 --> 00:15:58,625
Boy, almost
Didn't see you.
373
00:15:58,658 --> 00:16:00,560
Ah.
Funny thing, did
You ever notice
374
00:16:00,593 --> 00:16:03,630
How much a person sees out
Of the corners of their eyes?
375
00:16:03,663 --> 00:16:06,166
Well, no, I... Oh, yes,
I know all about it.
376
00:16:06,199 --> 00:16:07,300
I've been reading up
377
00:16:07,334 --> 00:16:09,202
On the declaration
Of independence
378
00:16:09,236 --> 00:16:11,171
And I've got a lot
Of "Idears" on it
379
00:16:11,204 --> 00:16:12,439
And I'd be happy to...
380
00:16:12,472 --> 00:16:14,174
That-that's just
A pity, goober
381
00:16:14,207 --> 00:16:15,642
Because... Well,
I'm skipping
382
00:16:15,675 --> 00:16:17,377
The declaration
Of independence
383
00:16:17,410 --> 00:16:20,147
And talk about skipping,
I've got to run now. Bye.
384
00:16:26,353 --> 00:16:28,088
Goober:
Hey, bill...
385
00:16:28,121 --> 00:16:30,323
Bill:
Oh, hello, goober.
386
00:16:30,357 --> 00:16:32,259
Say, bill, you
Know something?
387
00:16:32,292 --> 00:16:35,362
Sorry, goober, I-I've got
To be running. See you.
388
00:16:56,249 --> 00:16:57,450
Hey, andy.
389
00:17:15,368 --> 00:17:17,270
You asleep, andy?
390
00:17:24,144 --> 00:17:27,314
[ loud whistling ]
391
00:17:29,416 --> 00:17:30,417
[ sighs ]
392
00:17:35,788 --> 00:17:38,158
[ door opens and closes ]
393
00:17:39,392 --> 00:17:40,693
Hey, andy, just passing by.
394
00:17:40,727 --> 00:17:41,828
Thought I'd drop in.
395
00:17:41,861 --> 00:17:44,331
Oh. Yeah.
396
00:17:44,364 --> 00:17:45,632
Nice day out.
397
00:17:45,665 --> 00:17:47,500
Yeah, boy.
Know why it's
A nice day?
398
00:17:47,534 --> 00:17:48,868
Uh, no.
I'll tell you why.
399
00:17:48,901 --> 00:17:51,204
'cause you're
Feeling good.
Yeah, well...
400
00:17:51,238 --> 00:17:54,274
My theory is, we all
Carry our weather
Inside of our body.
401
00:17:54,307 --> 00:17:56,243
Some people, the sun
Could be shining
402
00:17:56,276 --> 00:17:58,411
You can tell it's
Raining inside of 'em.
403
00:17:58,445 --> 00:18:00,147
Yeah, you can see
It's raining.
404
00:18:00,180 --> 00:18:01,514
That's philosophy.
405
00:18:01,548 --> 00:18:03,516
I can give you something else
To think about.
406
00:18:03,550 --> 00:18:04,617
Yeah, good, good.
407
00:18:06,686 --> 00:18:08,388
Hey, hey, howard, howard...
408
00:18:08,421 --> 00:18:10,823
Goober's got a very
Interesting theory
On the weather.
409
00:18:10,857 --> 00:18:12,859
Tell him about
It, goob.
410
00:18:12,892 --> 00:18:14,561
You ever heard
The expression,
411
00:18:14,594 --> 00:18:16,396
A person has
A sunny disposition?
412
00:18:16,429 --> 00:18:18,298
I want to tell you, we carry
Our weather in our body.
413
00:18:18,331 --> 00:18:20,400
Floyd, something's got
To be done about goober.
414
00:18:20,433 --> 00:18:23,136
He's about to drive me
And everybody else crazy.
415
00:18:23,170 --> 00:18:25,338
Big problem, big problem.
416
00:18:25,372 --> 00:18:27,307
You better know
It's a big problem.
417
00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:31,211
You're going to have to talk
To him and straighten him out.
418
00:18:31,244 --> 00:18:32,345
Why me, andy?
419
00:18:32,379 --> 00:18:33,880
Because you're
His best friend.
420
00:18:33,913 --> 00:18:35,582
I thought you were
His best friend.
421
00:18:35,615 --> 00:18:37,450
You started the whole thing.
422
00:18:37,484 --> 00:18:39,386
You're the one
That called him a thinker.
423
00:18:39,419 --> 00:18:41,488
You wouldn't let him
Shave his beard off.
424
00:18:41,521 --> 00:18:43,490
You trimmed it--
Don't try to deny it.
425
00:18:43,523 --> 00:18:44,824
I don't care what you say.
426
00:18:44,857 --> 00:18:46,926
You're his best friend,
So you tell him.
427
00:18:46,959 --> 00:18:50,397
It's not easy to tell your
Best friend he's a blabbermouth.
428
00:18:50,430 --> 00:18:52,499
I don't care.
You've got to tell him.
429
00:18:52,532 --> 00:18:54,801
Well...
430
00:18:54,834 --> 00:18:56,403
Promise me you'll tell him.
431
00:18:56,436 --> 00:18:58,571
Uh... All right, I'll tell him!
432
00:18:58,605 --> 00:19:00,673
As a service to the community.
433
00:19:00,707 --> 00:19:03,410
Now, you've got
To take care of it, floyd.
434
00:19:03,443 --> 00:19:06,145
Don't give it
Another thought.
435
00:19:16,723 --> 00:19:18,825
One time, you was a seed.
436
00:19:30,570 --> 00:19:32,772
Floyd, you know
What I was thinking about?
437
00:19:32,805 --> 00:19:34,407
I'm not interested
Right now!
438
00:19:34,441 --> 00:19:36,309
Just pull up a chair
And sit down.
439
00:19:36,343 --> 00:19:37,510
I want to talk to you.
440
00:19:37,544 --> 00:19:39,178
Oh?
Yeah.
441
00:19:40,380 --> 00:19:42,649
Just open up your ears
And listen to me.
442
00:19:42,682 --> 00:19:43,683
All right.
443
00:19:43,716 --> 00:19:45,385
Now, goober,
There comes a time
444
00:19:45,418 --> 00:19:47,954
When a friend has to
Tell a friend something.
445
00:19:47,987 --> 00:19:49,589
You follow me?
Yeah.
446
00:19:49,622 --> 00:19:51,658
Tell him for his own good.
447
00:19:51,691 --> 00:19:53,693
If a friend can't tell
A friend something
448
00:19:53,726 --> 00:19:55,395
Then nobody can
Tell him nothing.
449
00:19:55,428 --> 00:19:56,929
'cause when a friend
Talks to you
450
00:19:56,963 --> 00:19:58,565
You don't listen
With your ears
451
00:19:58,598 --> 00:19:59,932
You listen with your heart.
452
00:19:59,966 --> 00:20:02,235
Well, what I wanted
To say to you...
453
00:20:02,269 --> 00:20:03,603
Well, listen...
454
00:20:03,636 --> 00:20:06,739
Oh... What a lovely thought.
455
00:20:06,773 --> 00:20:08,808
It just come to me.
456
00:20:08,841 --> 00:20:10,410
Had a nice ring to it.
457
00:20:10,443 --> 00:20:13,646
Something else it brings
To mind about friends --
458
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:14,881
That even sometimes
459
00:20:14,914 --> 00:20:16,816
These great philosophers
Can be wrong.
460
00:20:16,849 --> 00:20:18,351
They can?
461
00:20:18,385 --> 00:20:19,652
Mm-hmm.
462
00:20:19,686 --> 00:20:21,721
A man's best friend
Is not his dog.
463
00:20:21,754 --> 00:20:23,356
It's people.
464
00:20:23,390 --> 00:20:26,726
Ooh, you really get
To the meat of things, goober.
465
00:20:26,759 --> 00:20:28,761
Go on.
'course, I still love dogs.
466
00:20:28,795 --> 00:20:30,497
Oh, I know, I know.
467
00:20:30,530 --> 00:20:33,733
I never heard you say
An unkind word about anybody,
468
00:20:33,766 --> 00:20:35,435
Man nor beast.
469
00:20:35,468 --> 00:20:37,804
That's what I like
About you, floyd.
470
00:20:37,837 --> 00:20:39,306
You're understandin'.
471
00:20:42,375 --> 00:20:43,543
Pal.
472
00:20:47,414 --> 00:20:48,581
Oh...
473
00:20:50,049 --> 00:20:51,751
All settled.
474
00:20:51,784 --> 00:20:53,486
What's that, andy?
475
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,922
You know, what we was,
Uh, talking...
476
00:20:55,955 --> 00:20:56,956
Oh.
477
00:20:58,358 --> 00:21:00,360
Andy, did you ever
Stop to think
478
00:21:00,393 --> 00:21:01,628
That people need friends
479
00:21:01,661 --> 00:21:03,696
Just like they need
Air for breathing?
480
00:21:03,730 --> 00:21:06,032
Now, a lot of your great
Philosophers tell us
481
00:21:06,065 --> 00:21:07,934
That man's best friend
Is his dog.
482
00:21:07,967 --> 00:21:09,569
That's not necessarily true.
483
00:21:09,602 --> 00:21:11,604
Course, I've got
Nothing against dogs,
484
00:21:11,638 --> 00:21:13,973
But a man's best friend
Has got to be people.
485
00:21:14,006 --> 00:21:15,642
Goober, will you
Stop talking!
486
00:21:15,675 --> 00:21:17,777
You're about to drive
Me out of my mind!
487
00:21:17,810 --> 00:21:19,078
What?
488
00:21:19,111 --> 00:21:21,013
Well, ever since you grew
That beard
489
00:21:21,047 --> 00:21:22,915
You've been going on
And on and on
490
00:21:22,949 --> 00:21:25,017
And talking and talking,
Like you knew
491
00:21:25,051 --> 00:21:26,486
Everything
In the world.
492
00:21:26,519 --> 00:21:27,820
I've been a
Lot of places
493
00:21:27,854 --> 00:21:29,522
I've seen a
Lot of people
494
00:21:29,556 --> 00:21:31,924
And I've never
Seen anybody that
Knows everything.
495
00:21:31,958 --> 00:21:34,327
And-and you've got
People avoiding you.
496
00:21:34,361 --> 00:21:35,462
Haven't you noticed
497
00:21:35,495 --> 00:21:37,430
People are trying
To hide from you?
498
00:21:42,935 --> 00:21:46,506
Goober, you think
That beard gives you confidence
499
00:21:46,539 --> 00:21:48,040
But it doesn't.
500
00:21:48,074 --> 00:21:51,978
Confidence is something
That's... That's on the inside.
501
00:21:52,011 --> 00:21:54,581
Remember, like you told
Me about the weather.
502
00:21:54,614 --> 00:21:58,851
And it doesn't hurt
To listen once in a while.
503
00:22:10,797 --> 00:22:12,965
[ calling ]
I'm sorry, goober.
504
00:22:14,601 --> 00:22:17,570
Of course the industrial
Revolution started in england.
505
00:22:17,604 --> 00:22:19,806
But the main inventions
Came from america.
506
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:21,007
Right.
507
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,543
Yeah! Eli whitney,
Robert fulton...
508
00:22:23,576 --> 00:22:25,077
Woman:
And benjamin
Franklin.
509
00:22:25,111 --> 00:22:27,079
Yes, but if you'll
Just read in...
510
00:22:27,113 --> 00:22:29,148
Look, look...
[ all talking ]
511
00:22:29,181 --> 00:22:30,983
Now, we can't
Get anywhere
512
00:22:31,017 --> 00:22:33,019
If we're all
Talking at once.
513
00:22:33,052 --> 00:22:35,922
Yes, helen?
It's not important
Where it started.
514
00:22:35,955 --> 00:22:38,758
We're interested in the
Effect on the economy.
515
00:22:38,791 --> 00:22:40,493
Of course. It changed it.
516
00:22:40,527 --> 00:22:43,830
Prior to that, the economy
Was based on agriculture.
517
00:22:43,863 --> 00:22:46,032
[ clears throat softly ]
518
00:22:46,065 --> 00:22:47,400
Yes, goober?
519
00:22:48,735 --> 00:22:50,369
Oh... Well, uh...
520
00:22:53,205 --> 00:22:56,576
There was one thing I read
About the industrial revolution.
521
00:22:56,609 --> 00:22:58,911
Because of all the machinery
They were using
522
00:22:58,945 --> 00:23:01,013
It throwed a lot of people
Out of work
523
00:23:01,047 --> 00:23:02,482
But it made better goods
524
00:23:02,515 --> 00:23:04,817
And our nation became
More rich than it was
525
00:23:04,851 --> 00:23:07,954
And... And believe it or not...
526
00:23:07,987 --> 00:23:10,089
That's all I got to say.
527
00:23:10,122 --> 00:23:12,058
[ laughter ]
528
00:23:13,660 --> 00:23:16,496
Well, andy, how's
Your schoolwork coming,
529
00:23:16,529 --> 00:23:18,097
Now that everything's
All straightened out?
530
00:23:18,130 --> 00:23:20,066
Oh, schoolwork
Comin' along fine.
531
00:23:20,099 --> 00:23:21,701
Good.
532
00:23:21,734 --> 00:23:24,003
What are you up to, pa?
533
00:23:24,036 --> 00:23:26,105
What do you mean,
What am I up to?
534
00:23:26,138 --> 00:23:27,774
What are you up to
In history?
535
00:23:27,807 --> 00:23:30,643
Oh, we're past
The 18th century.
536
00:23:30,677 --> 00:23:32,845
Then you're finished
With the american revolution.
537
00:23:32,879 --> 00:23:34,981
Oh, yes.
538
00:23:35,014 --> 00:23:37,717
Articles of confederation
And everything.
539
00:23:37,750 --> 00:23:39,552
Sure, finished, yeah.
540
00:23:39,586 --> 00:23:41,220
What did you think
Of 'em?
541
00:23:41,253 --> 00:23:43,523
What did I think
Of what?
542
00:23:43,556 --> 00:23:45,157
Articles of confederation.
543
00:23:45,191 --> 00:23:47,594
Oh, I thought
They was good.
544
00:23:47,627 --> 00:23:49,562
Did you learn
The reasons for 'em?
545
00:23:49,596 --> 00:23:50,963
Sure.
546
00:23:50,997 --> 00:23:52,999
What about the causes
Of the revolution?
547
00:23:53,032 --> 00:23:54,033
Did you study that?
548
00:23:54,066 --> 00:23:56,736
Oh, oh, mm, yeah, yeah.

Put on the stamp act?

00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:01,874
Mm-hmm.

00:24:01,908 --> 00:24:04,877
Because.
552
00:24:06,779 --> 00:24:07,980
See, ope, we study
553
00:24:08,014 --> 00:24:10,683
More than the whys
And the wherefores
554
00:24:10,717 --> 00:24:13,553
And names and dates
And things like that.
555
00:24:13,586 --> 00:24:16,255
We go for a deeper meaning.
556
00:24:16,288 --> 00:24:20,727
A root, a philosophy of why
Things happened when they did.
557
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,562
You know what I mean?
558
00:24:22,595 --> 00:24:24,731
I don't think so, pa.
559
00:24:24,764 --> 00:24:27,834
Well, what I mean is,
You better study
560
00:24:27,867 --> 00:24:30,069
Real hard
While you're young.
561
00:24:30,102 --> 00:24:32,639
'cause it's hard to learn
Anything when you get older.
