I hate it when he gets an idea in the middIe of the night.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

A VaIentine's card for VaIentine's Day.

''Roses are red chocolate is brown''?

Good grief.

VaIentine's Day puzzIes me Chuck.

If someone gives you a great big vaIentine does that mean Iove Chuck?

WeII it couId of course.

But actuaIIy the size of the vaIentine isn't important.

How about an expensive vaIentine Chuck? Does that mean Iove?

Oh no. I don't think the price has anything to do with Iove.

ShouId a vaIentine be maiIed or shouId it be presented in person Chuck?

I don't think it reaIIy matters.

Have you been given a Iot of vaIentines in your time Chuck?

No. I've never received a singIe vaIentine.

WeII then what am I taIking to you for?

I shouId be taIking to someone who is used to getting vaIentines.

Hey maybe that kid with the funny nose can answer my question.

Hey kid wait a second.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

''Dear sweetheart.''

That's too impersonaI.

I think you shouId caII her something more endearing.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

''Dear angeI food cake with seven-minute frosting.''

Your stories are dumb.

They don't have enough romance.

I've just been reading a very romantic book.

The man says to the woman:

''You are breath and bread and water to me.''

That's the sort of thing you shouId write.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

'''You are breath and bread and water to me' he said.

'And chocoIate-chip cookies.'''

Good grief.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

''Dear sweetheart I miss you morning noon and night.''

That's too vague.

When you write to a girI you have to be more specific.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

''I miss you at 8:15 1 1 :45 and 9:36.''

Good grief.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

''Dear sweetheart happy VaIentine's Day. I'd do anything for you.

I'd cIimb the highest mountain. I'd dog paddIe the deepest ocean.''

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

'''Your eyes are beautifuI' he said. 'ShaII I compare them to a summer's day?

No even more. Your eyes are Iike two supper dishes.

Be my vaIentine.'''

You just gave me an idea.

I'm going to make my own vaIentine this year.

I'm going to cut out some pretty red hearts and then gIue Iace around them.

What I want you to do is type out a nice verse.

[ TYPEWRITER DINGS ]

''Chocolate-chip cookies are red Chocolate-chip cookies are blue

Chocolate-chip cookies are sweet So are you''

This is terribIe. I can't make a vaIentine with that.

Write another one.

[ SCHOOL BELL RINGS ]

If I hoId my hands out Iike this you can put a vaIentine right in them.

Or you can stand Iike that for the rest of your Iife and never get anything.

It feeIs Iike it might rain.

I'd give anything to be abIe to taIk to that IittIe red-haired girI.

The amazing thing is that I know I'm the sort of person she'd Iike.

I mean I'm not rough or crude or anything.

I'm not the greatest person who ever Iived of course but after aII who is?

I'm just a nice sort of a guy...

...who never gets to meet IittIe red-haired girIs.

What's this? That IittIe red-haired girI dropped her penciI.

Gee it's got teeth marks aII over it.

She nibbIes on her penciI.

She is human.

-What's that you're hoIding? -It's a penciI.

It beIongs to that IittIe red-haired girI.

I'm going to stand here untiI she waIks by...

...and then I'm gonna teII her how I found it.

I hate to see you go to aII that troubIe CharIie Brown.

Why don't I just give it to her?

Hey here's your stupid penciI!

[ CHILDREN CHATTERING ]

Hey that big kid just pushed down that IittIe red-haired girI.

What a buIIy. She got up.

But Iook he's gonna push her down again.

Oh why aren't I tough? Why can't I rush over there and save her?

Because I'd get sIaughtered that's why.

I'm not tough. I'm not anything. I'm--

I'II take care of him CharIie Brown.

[ BLANKET SNAPS ]

You can reIax CharIie Brown. He won't bother her anymore.

That's very comforting.

I'm the friend of a hero.

What are you writing Marcie?

I'm sending a vaIentine to CharIes.

You can't do that. He'II think you Iike him.

I do. I'm very fond of CharIes.

Why don't you sign my name too?

Oh sure. Hitch a ride on my vaIentine.

Yes?

I may or may not be sending you a vaIentine CharIes...

...so I need to know something. Do you Iike me CharIes?

Do I what?

I waIk aII the way over here to ask you a question...

...and aII you can say is ''Do I what?''

Forget it CharIes.

Forget what?

Got a Ietter in the maiI eh Chuck?

''I know you Iike me and in my own way I Iike you too.''

I think it's from that IittIe red-haired girI. She knows I Iike her and--

That's not from any IittIe red-haired girI Chuck.

That Ietter is from me. You Iike me Chuck.

I do?

Hi CharIes. Remember yesterday when I went to your house?

I waIked aII the way over to ask you if you Iiked me.

To do what?

I can't stand it.

Next week is VaIentine's Day.

Are you going to give me a vaIentine?

I never have. What makes you think I'II give you one this year?

Hope.

Isn't this a beautifuI vaIentine? It says ''I Iove you.''

I think I'II give it to the IittIe red-haired girI.

She'II probabIy Iaugh right in your face.

At Ieast I'd be near her.

What do you think? This is a vaIentine I bought the IittIe red-haired girI.

I wanna go over to her house and give it to her...

...but I think I'd be too nervous to do it without practice.

I'II go outside and ring the doorbeII...

...and you pretend you're the IittIe red-haired girI okay?

[ DOORBELL RINGS ]

CHARLIE: l better practice how l'll give it to her.

Here little red-haired girl this is for you.

lt's a valentine.

This is a valentine l made specially for you.

Here little red-haired girl this is a valentine l want you to have.

Here little red-haired girl...

...this is a valentine to show how much l like you.

Here this valentine is for you sweet little red-haired girl.

Here IittIe red-haired girI this vaIentine is for you.

And I hope you Iike it as much as I Iike you and....

[ SIGHS ]

Hi CharIie Brown.

Did you give that IittIe red-haired girI your vaIentine?

I couIdn't do it. I maiIed it anonymousIy.

Hey sweet babboo I brought you a vaIentine.

LINUS: I am not your sweet babboo.

Does it have any monetary vaIue?

I doubt it.

Yes ma'am. I'd Iike to buy a box of candy for a girI who doesn't know I exist.

[ WOMAN MUMBLING ]

No ma'am. Nothing too expensive.

I'II never have the nerve to give it to her anyway.

I'm afraid if I give this box to that IittIe red-haired girI...

...she'II just Iaugh in my face.

Maybe I can hide behind this tree...

...and when she comes by she'II take it out of my hand.

Love makes you do strange things.

I think tomorrow I'II just right out and teII that IittIe red-haired girI that I Iove her.

Then I'II give her a big hug.

Then I'II go bungee jumping from the moon.

WouIdn't it be great if that IittIe red-haired girI gave me a vaIentine?

What if she came over to me and handed me a big fancy vaIentine...

...with Iace aII around the edges?

What if she said to me ''Dearest CharIie Brown won't you be my vaIentine?

PIease? PIease? PIease?''

I'd better go in. I think I'm cracking up.

I've decided something.

For VaIentine's Day this year don't get me anything fancy...

...Iike candy or fIowers.

I'II settIe for a kiss on the nose and a hug.

Or a whoIe Iot Iess.

See this vaIentine I made for Linus?

On the inside I wrote ''To my sweet babboo.''

He says he's not your sweet babboo.

What does he know?

These are vaIentines for aII the boys at schooI that I Iike.

And this is a very speciaI one for my sweet babboo.

Does your sweet babboo know who he is?

Oh yes he knows who he is.

Do you see my sweet babboo standing there?

He's hanging around the candy store trying to decide...

...what to get me for VaIentine's Day.

It'II probabIy be a box of candy shaped Iike a big heart.

Or a big zero.

Isn't he the cutest thing?

Look it's the IittIe red-haired girI.

Maybe I shouId invite her to the VaIentine dance.

Do me a favor. Go over and taIk to her.

Say you know me. Try to find out if she Iikes me.

I'II hide here behind this trash can and Iisten.

LINUS: Hi there. My name is Linus.

I beIieve we have a friend in common.

His name is CharIie Brown.

He sits across the room from you in schooI.

No by the window near the penciI sharpener.

No in the Iast row.

WeII kind of bIond I guess.

No you're thinking of Mike.

No not as taII.

A shirt with sort of jagged stripes.

No not John. John is a Iot bigger.

Sort of a round face.

Doesn't ring a beII huh?

No Brown Iike in ''town.''

Just doesn't ring a beII huh?

I can't stand it. I just can't stand it.

You're being ridicuIous CharIie Brown.

I can't heIp it.

I can't just go up to that IittIe red-haired girI and taIk to her.

She has a pretty face and pretty faces make me nervous.

How come my face doesn't make you nervous huh?

I notice you can taIk to me. I have a pretty face.

How come you can taIk to me?

WeII why don't you invite her to the VaIentine's dance?

Just go ask her right now.

I can't taIk to that IittIe red-haired girI because she is something and I'm nothing.

If I were something and she were nothing I couId taIk to her.

Or if she were something and I were something then I couId aIso taIk to her.

Or if she were nothing and I were nothing then I couId aIso taIk to her.

But she's something and I'm nothing so I can't taIk to her.

For a nothing CharIie Brown you're reaIIy something.

There's that pretty IittIe red-haired girI.

[ SIGHS ]

I wonder what wouId happen if I waIked over to her desk...

...put my arm around her and gave her a big kiss? Wow!

I've gotta stop thinking Iike that.

GirIs Iike compIiments.

If you want to impress that IittIe red-haired girI...

...say something nice to her.

You Iook reaIIy cute today!

[ CRASHING ]

That reaIIy impressed her CharIie Brown.

She feII right out of her desk.

You've got to be more subtIe CharIie Brown.

If I wink maybe she wiII notice me.

I'm not getting any distance.

[ TEACHER MUMBLING ]

Where are you going CharIie Brown?

The teacher wants me to see the nurse about my eye.

She saw me winking at the IittIe red-haired girI.

She thinks something's wrong with me eye.

Did you go to the eye doctor yesterday CharIie Brown?

Yes. She said there's nothing wrong with my eyes. They're fine.

Did she teII you to stop winking at girIs?

She said that's the first thing they teach you in medicaI schooI.

-Yes? -Can you cure IoneIiness?

For a nickeI I can cure anything.

Can you cure deep-down bIack-bottom-of-the-weII...

...no-hope end-of-the-worId what's-the-use IoneIiness?

For the same nickeI?!

I just had a terribIe thought.

What if the IittIe red-haired girI gives me a vaIentine and she reaIIy Iikes me?

But what if it turns out that I don't Iike her as much as I thought I was going to?

How couId I teII her? How couId I break up with her?

How couId I Ieave her?

You're worried about Ieaving someone you haven't even met?

CharIie Brown you are hopeIess compIeteIy hopeIess.

Maybe I couId Ieave her now and meet her Iater.

Good grief.

The doctor is no Ionger in.

Can I heIp you?

I need a vaIentine that wiII impress this girI I Iike.

Then you'II want this super-potent vaIentine.

-Potent? -It'II sweep her off her feet.

It'II knock her socks off.

-AII right. I'II take it. -Good.

If you come around next Friday you can pick it up.

Friday? Why can't I have it now?

It's too potent.

There's a five-day waiting period.

I wonder what I can do to make that IittIe red-haired girI notice me?

Maybe if I waIk around the room a bit I'II bet she notices me now.

[ PENCIL SHARPENER GRINDING ]

EspeciaIIy after I get my sIeeve caught in the penciI sharpener.

If that IittIe red-haired girI sees me standing here...

...with my sIeeve caught in the penciI sharpener...

...she'II think I'm the dumbest person in the worId.

What I have to do is wriggIe out of my shirt but stiII Iook reaI cooI.

Why do we have to stand in Iine for everything?

-What's the hoId up? -ProbabIy an overturned vehicIe.

-Push him out of there. -What's taking so Iong?

CHARLIE: I Iike a penciI with a fine point.

I don't think we shouId bother with the vaIentine's box this year ma'am.

I don't think my sweet babboo wouId give me a vaIentine anyway.

LINUS: I am not your sweet babboo.

And how do you know I wouIdn't give you a vaIentine if I were your sweet babboo?

Which I am not.

See the probIem ma'am?

[ TEACHER MUMBLING ]

Our teacher says we have to have a vaIentine box. So here it is.

It's onIy for vaIentines.

The opening in the top is not Iarge enough for boxes of candy.

If your sweet babboo wants to give you a box of candy...

...he'II have to give it to you eIsewhere.

LINUS: I am not your sweet babboo...

...and you couIdn't get me within a hundred miIes of eIsewhere.

AII right. At ease out there.

Our teacher has asked me to expIain how this vaIentine thing wiII work.

Each student wiII drop his or her vaIentine into this box.

PIease write aII names cIearIy.

And now we're down to the Iast two vaIentines.

This one is for my sweet babboo and this one for the cutest of the cute.

WiII the persons to whom these beautifuI vaIentines are addressed...

...pIease step forward?

LINUS: I went home!

This is perfect.

I'II just Iie here in front of the maiIbox and watch aII my vaIentines come in.

I'm surprised that no one eIse has thought of doing this.

Get out of there.

How do you expect the maiIman to deIiver vaIentines with you in there?

Sometimes I don't think this was such a good idea.

FortunateIy nothing worse can happen.

[ THUNDER RUMBLING ]

[ THUNDER CRACKING ]

WouIdn't it be something if that IittIe red-haired girI...

...came over here and gave me a kiss?

I'd say ''Thank you. What was that for?''

And wouIdn't it be something if she said ''Because I've aIways Ioved you''?

Then I'd give her a big hug and she'd kiss me again.

WouIdn't that be something?

And wouIdn't it be something if it turned out that french fries were good for you?

She's handing vaIentines out to aII her friends.

She's handing them out one by one.

She's handing them out. She's stiII handing them out.

Now she's aII done. That was the Iast one.

Now she's waIking away.

Happy VaIentine's Day.

Don't give up CharIie Brown.

Why don't you get her phone number and caII her...

...and invite her to the VaIentine's dance?

I'm afraid she'd hang up on my face.

That's the beauty of caIIing her on the phone.

One ear is not a whoIe face.

Thank you ma'am. There I did it.

[ OPERATOR SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY ]

HeIIo Information?

Yes. I'd Iike to taIk to a certain IittIe red-haired girI.

No I aIready have her number.

I was hoping you couId teII me something eIse.

What do I say when she answers the phone?

[ OPERATOR MUTTERING ANGRILY ]

CaII her CharIie Brown.

[ PHONE RINGING ]

HeIIo? This is Marcie speaking.

Good grief I diaIed the wrong number.

Is that you CharIes? It sounds Iike your voice.

If it is how have you been?

If it isn't what do I care how you've been?

I'II bet you diaIed my number by mistake didn't you CharIes?

I'II bet you meant to caII Peppermint Patty.

She just happens to be right here beside me. I'II put her on.

No no. Wait wait. I....

PATTY: Hi Chuck.

Finally got up the nerve to call me eh?

I bet you caIIed to invite me to your VaIentine dance.

WeII I accept.

[ MEN SHOUTING ON TV ]

Where are you going big brother?

WeII I finaIIy got up the nerve to caII that IittIe red-haired girI...

...but I caIIed Marcie by mistake and got a date with Peppermint Patty.

I think you're too wishy-washy big brother.

It's not a Iost art.

I'm feeding you earIy because I'm going to a dance tonight.

I'm hoping I get to dance with the IittIe red-haired girI.

I didn't know you were coming aIong.

Who invited you? How wiII I get you in?

[ SNOOPY LAUGHS ]

HoId it right there dude. This is a dance.

The dog can't come in.

There was a misunderstanding.

This IittIe kid here thought it was gonna be a costume baII...

...so he wore a dog suit.

Okay. Go on in. Have a great time.

Hi CharIie Brown. WeIcome to the dance. Everyone is here.

I hope we're not too Iate.

See there she is CharIie Brown.

There's the IittIe red-haired girI just waiting for you to ask her to dance.

I wish I were sophisticated Iike guys you read about in stories.

[ GIRLS GIGGLING ]

Wow!

It's now or never CharIie Brown.

I can't beIieve I'm doing this.

I'm waIking toward the IittIe red-haired girI.

I'm going to ask her to dance.

I'm getting cIoser. I'm aImost there. I'm--

Come on CharIes.

PATTY: Hey Chuck we've been Iooking for you.

CHARLIE: Good grief.

[ UP-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS OVER SPEAKERS ]

CharIie Brown quick. It's the Iast dance. You've got to--

Oh no. She's taken.

Good grief.

[ UP-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS OVER SPEAKERS ]

[ ALL COUGHING ]

The VaIentine dance wasn't very romantic Chuck.

And I saved you the waItz CharIes.

How about the Iimo Chuck? We never saw a Iimo either.

And how come you feII down during the dance?

Don't invite us to any more dances Chuck.

Many a heart is broken after the baII.

I know that you didn't send me a vaIentine this year.

I have the feeIing that it was not an oversight.

I have the feeIing that it was deIiberate.

However if I am wrong and it was mereIy an oversight...

...or if the vaIentine that spoke so eIoquentIy...

...of your Iove for me was Iost in the maiI...

...then I want to express my appreciation for the thought.

It was not an oversight. It did not get Iost in the maiI.

I see.

WeII you know the oId saying.

What oId saying?

Rats.

[ DOORBELL RINGS ]

I've come to see my sweet babboo.

LINUS: I am not your sweet babboo.

I just wanna thank him for the vaIentine.

I never sent her a vaIentine.

Don't you know sarcasm when you hear it?

I dreamed about that IittIe red-haired girI again Iast night.

If I couId have had just one dance with her.

Now I'II be thinking about her aII day and be depressed.

I think I know how you feeI CharIie Brown.

You'd Iike to cry but you're too macho.

I am?

[ WHEELS SQUEAKING ]

[ SNOOPY LAUGHS ]

Happy VaIentine's Day CharIie Brown.
