Hey,

fellas, room for one more? Always room
for a high roller. Sit down.

Thought you were going to town. Yeah, I
was dead.

Ah, pipe got stud?

Right, okay. I saw Joan in town.

Joan? My Joan?

She was with Mulligan. You know, the
good -looking sergeant from

You sure? Will you stop worrying about
Joan, do you? All right, all right.

worrying about Joan?

I mean, ask a simple question. What's
the deal?

A deal? Who's Joan worried?

If I was worried, would I be playing
poker?

I mean, it's a ridiculous thing.

I mean, she lives her life, I live my
life. She wants to, you know, I... I see

you. What do you got?

I got four aces, three sevens, a royal
horse, and a cool house.

Are we going to play? Come on, Ernie.
Deal, huh?

My hands are tired. I think I'll get a
little air.

I'll go over to PX and get a little
coffee. Look, Ernie, if you're worried

Joan... Joan? Who's worried about Joan?
I'm worried about Joan.

Oh, hi, Ernie. Hi, Freddy. Nice night,
huh? Yeah, just

like it's been every five minutes for
the last hour you've been out here.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh, Freddy, by the way. No, Mulligan
hasn't been back with Joan yet.

Look, if you're worried... Who's
worried?

Worried.

Hey, Shiggy, how's it going?

Haven't seen her yet. Who?

The same ones you've been asking about
for the last hour, Joan and Mulligan.

Don't make a big deal out of this. I
just got to see Mulligan about some duty

rosters. I mean, it's not important.

Betty, anybody go through here while I
was talking to Shiggy? Not a soul.

Well, I guess I'll get some little shut
-eye.

Come on, Freddy.

Good night. Good night, Shiggy. Good
night, Ernie.

Anybody come through here while I was
gone?

When she comes through, we'll fire a
rifle and let you know.

Don't make a federal case out of this,
will you?

Here they come. Not a word.

Trying to speak in, Joan? Trying to hide
something?

Ernie! Ernie! She knows my name, isn't
that? I should have been gone so long, I

thought maybe you'd forgot. I'm sorry,
Mulligan, the way she used you. You just

ignore him. Oh, ignore him? Oh, will you
kill me if I wasn't wise to your trick?

If this is a little maneuver to make me
jealous, may I say you failed miserably?

Wait, how long have you been wrong with
him? Where'd you go? Oh, stop being so

suspicious, Ernie. How can I just went
to a movie?

Suspicious? Who's suspicious?

Where's your ticket, Stubbs? What was
the name of the movie? Where's the salt

from the popcorn?

Who was playing in the picture?

Who's talking to you?

Don't be ridiculous, Ernie. Oh, I'm
ridiculous.

Just a bit, huh? I'm ridiculous.

How come you go to the movies with him,
you don't go with me?

You didn't want to go.

Pretty weak alibi, huh?

I didn't want to go, huh? Well, you
listen to me. You listen to me, Ernie

I'm not married to you. Oh, thank
heaven. Look, I hate family fights. I'll

you tomorrow.

Well, may I say he's just left in the
nick of time?

Oh, you're a contemptible, suspicious
beast.

Now she's trying to make up, you get it?

Now you listen to me, Ernie Bilko. I
want something straightened out.

Every Saturday night when you're playing
poker, do you expect me to sit alone in

the barracks all night?

No, my dear young lady. I do not expect
you to sit alone in the barracks. This

is a pretty big camp. You can sit alone
at the PX. You can sit alone at the

service club. There are plenty of places
you can sit alone, my dear.

Now, you listen to me. You're the one
that's always been saying, oh, no, no,

no, no, no. Just let's be pals. Nothing
steady.

Well, I want to go even further than
that.

I never want to see you again. It's all
right with me and good riddance.

James, huh?

I think I'll go into town and get drunk.

What am I talking about? I don't drink.

I'll fix it.

I'll overeat.

Now, why'd you do worse?

Don't come in here keeping a meal like
the rest of us. Get out of here. Stop

whining. Man, he's mighty. Been like
that all morning.

Been like what all morning?

Trying to get a day's work out of you,
boo -bobs? You got a point job to do? Do

it over. Sarge. And now talk back to me.
Do it over.

Sarge, just because you had a beef with
your girl last night, don't take it out

on us. Look, Mellon, when I want advice
and a love loan, I'll come to you. Right

now, I want a bow job, dumbass. Do it
over. Who's down here? Hang up.

What are you doing?

Do it over!

I'll sign nothing. Do it over.

Where are you going?

To do it over. I was just on furlough.
Come on, work, work.

It's three o 'clock, son.

It's three o 'clock, so you're through.
Oh, heavens, fellas, did you hear it?

We've been unionized. Wait. Do it over.
But you said I could go into town. I've

got to pick up something for my girl at
the jeweler's. May I tell you this is

the army, and you'll do the work when
you're told to? Wait, Fender! You're

through? Yeah. Do it over.

Stop it.

I'll do it.

There's some plots waiting for the
railroad station to be delivered here.

them right away. Sure thing. I'll have
to get the bills. I'll find the bills. I

had a fight with my girl last night. If
I don't pick up that package of the

jewelers, I'm cooked.

Had a fight with your girl? Yeah, at
least let Doberman pick it up for me.

Sure, sure.

It's in my name at Kramer's. It's paid
for.

Sure thing. Thanks, Doberman. Here, come
here.

What is it, Sarge? This is just between
the two of us. Yeah?

And when you get to the jewelry stop, in
the window, there's a little doll charm

that's in the form of a dog house. Yeah?
I want you to get it.

Oh, me?

Sarge, my birthday's in January. Who's
talking about you?

This is for Joan. Have it gift -wrapped
and delivered to her. Can I defend it by

net? Yes, sir. Here he is!

Sarge, I just can't get this right.

That looks perfect to me, Dillingham.
You're doing a great job. Keep working,

baby. You're doing fine.

Hey!

What's going on here?

What are you working?

Hello, BJ. Take it easy.

Relax, buddies.

What are you knocking your brains out?

Go figure him out.

He's a nut.

Only Ernie could think of a thing like
that, huh? A little gold doghouse. It

real cute, Sarge. Look, you've got to
keep on thinking. Hey, Doberman, did you

get it? Here it is, Kadosk. Oh, thanks.

Wayne, how'd it go?

Perfect. Everything was at the depot,
like you said. No, no, not that. The

for Johnny. Did you get it for her?

She wasn't there, so I left it at her
desk. Good boy. Oh, I love to see her

when she opens that package and then she
sees the little doghouse. All the girls

want to giggle -a -gee.

Happy? Forget about the bogey. I'm back
playing Saturday.

Hey, Doberman, what's this you've got
me?

It's a dark house.

You jerk.

You got the wrong package. What was in
your package? An engagement ring.

An engagement ring?

Don't you worry. You just stay here and
relax. I'm going to get over to see her.

If she's already opened the package,
there's nothing to it. I'll just come

and kill you.

It's beautiful, Sergeant.

We're all so happy for you, Joan. It's
funny.

Never thought Bill could do it.

Oh, you did.

Congratulations, Ernie. Thank you very
much, honey. You finally did it, eh,

Sarge? May all your troubles be little
lost. Oh, that's a good one. Make a

chance on me. Can I talk to you? You can
live as cheaply as I.

Yes, I'll tell her. Can I talk to you? I
look like her.

Honey, I've got to talk to you. Listen,
there's something I've got to explain.

Oh, honey, you don't have to explain a
thing. This explains everything. You've

made me the happiest girl in the whole
world.

be sensible about this. You see, the
rules said we've got to get an okay from

the colonel before we can do this.

You know how he hates me?

Ernie, my boy!

My heartiest congratulations.

I've always said all you needed was the
steadying hand of a good wife.

Joan, my dear. I just heard about it.
Oh, Joan, what a lovely ring.

Did you pick it up by yourself?

No, Doberman helped me.

Look, I'd like to talk to Joan a minute
alone, if you don't mind. Oh, dear.

Thank you, sir. Now, remember... I want
to announce the engagement officially at

a reception I'm giving for you at our
house. Reception?

Yes. And remember, when you and Joan are
married, no roping. The army needs men.

Joan! Gee, that was a good one. Let's
get out of here.

Ernest! Chapel.

Congratulations, my children. Oh, thank
you. Now, I think a quiet little

ceremony in the chapel followed by a
small... Look, Chapel, I don't think we

should rush into this thing. No, Ernie's
right.

You heard her. I'm right. We shouldn't.
We can wait with the arrangements till

my folks get here. Yeah, when her folks
are coming.

It's just happened ten minutes. What are
they, guided missiles?

Worlds change in ten minutes. You're
telling me.

Bill, this is terrible.

I think I'm going to cry.

I think I'll join you.

What a happy day for Port Baxter.

Well, why don't you tell her the truth
that it was all a mistake?

Oh, that's clever.

Did you think you let yourself just open
your mouth and out it came? Why don't

you tell her the truth? I still say tell
her the truth. That's too late!

Everybody in the post thinks she's
engaged. They're giving her four wedding

showers. The colonel's wife is giving a
reception at the house. Her folks are

coming in. The chaplain is starting to
clear his throat. It's too late.

What if it was a mistake? That all you
know how to say was a mistake?

How can I tell her you know Joan without
pride?

All I have to do is tell her she's
rejected or she'd be laughed off the

can't do this to her. She's a human
being. Then why don't you marry her?

I'm a human being too.

I still say if you're telling the
truth... You tell her the truth, Sarge.

got nothing to worry about. I ain't
never worried. Just tell her. You tell

the truth. I have now given you
permission. You tell her. You look into

baby blue eyes brimming over with
happiness. You tell her it was a

got Kandowski's ring. It was never meant
for her. You tell her.

Sarge, I just cared about it. Let me off
on my congratulations.

Sarge,

I tell you, if you tell her the truth,
you got nothing to worry about. Tell her

the truth.

To tell you not to tell any truth.

The only thing that can save me is she's
got to turn me down.

Then her pride is saved and I'm saved.

Morning, Paul.

It's for you. It's Joan. Joan? See that?
She changed her mind. Hello, Joanie. If

you change your mind, I'm all right. I'm
bleeding internally, but I have to

accept... What?

What is it, Sarge?

Our folks are here.

Where at?

They're at the Roseville Hotel?

Yeah. All right.

Well, I... She wants me to meet her
folks. How do you like this?

Well, what?

Yeah. What?

I want to see if the folks approve of
me. How do you like... Yeah.

Let's see if they approve.

Yeah. Yes, I... No, I don't think it's a
silly idea. I think it's brilliant.

Why not? It's good common horse sense.
After all, you're their child.

They have a right to approve of me. And
if they don't, you have every right to

throw that ring right into my teeth.

Yes, I'll meet them today at the hotel.

Goodbye, dear.

The folks have to approve of me. I'm
saved.

Saved? But they'll like you. Yeah,
you're very likable. Sure, the bilko we

is irresistible.

But the bilko they're going to meet,
that's another story.

Tell Godowski I'll have his ring back
tonight.

It's Joan to find a quiet, steady young
man to fall in love with.

You lucky peasant son of yours, son -in
-law. You must be Daddy Boy. How do you

do? I got you with the old buzzer,
Rooney. Look at life, pal. You're in a

city. There's no trendy piece to do
here. A little candy for you, Mom.

Too much on the fat side. What do you
do, marry a poor money one?

Ow! Give me a hat. Give me a hat, you
want my hat? There it is. I'll take

If you buy this, it'll grow.

How about some meat? Would you have
some? No, no, here, just have this

for me. I'll go.

I'll eat it, all right.

Yep, I'll go.

All the good, all the good.

I'm going to run to the dance party.
Meet you both in the pool room. Goodbye.

Now, wait a minute, wait a minute. Young
man, your behavior is somewhat of a

surprise. Yeah? What did you expect, a
dud?

No, but someone who at least had some of
the qualities of this state flower in

my lapel. A flower that represents
dignity and courage.

Take a close look at this flower, young
man. I'm...

Folks are crazy about me. If I'd have
given them both a hut, we'd be married

now.

Look, Joan, about this afternoon.

Oh, honey, my two maiden aunts came in
all the way from Topeka just to see you.

They want to meet you over a cup of tea.

Joanie, two maiden aunts over a cup of
tea. Come on, have a heart.

Now, honey, we're a very close family,
and it's very important that Aunt Bertha

and Aunt Emily like you.

Oh, I see. They got to like me too, huh?

All right, honey, I'll be there.

Tell them I'll be there for tea.
Goodbye, honey.

Rock. Get me a pint of corn whiskey.

Whiskey in Kansas? It's a dry state.
What's the difference? If we get a

bottle full of tea, it doesn't make any
difference. Who's going to have tea with

two made men?

Do you want to open up a door for a
gentleman?

I know who you are.

You're the sisters.

Which one is Zsa Zsa?

Funny stuff to do.

Oh, you.

You think I'm drunk?

It's not true. I'm fighting a cold.

I've been fighting it for 14 years now.

How about that?

I want to know the truth.

You won't tell nobody if I tell you
something?

I'm drunk as a skunk.

Drunk? Loaded?

So what?

Stop moving around, kid. I see 19 ants
in front of you.

So, I'm drunk. What about it? Go ahead.
Tell Johnny's folks. So they'll tell

Johnny and she'll take the ring back.
It's okay with me?

Dunk! What are you going to do about it?

Bertha, will you take the gentleman's
hat?

Yes, I will, Emily.

Your hat, sir.

What are you drinking that stuff for?

Why don't you join us?

You? We've been on martinis all
afternoon.

We won't tell Joan's folks.

You won't tell Joan's folks? No, they're
a nice couple, but...

I got that ring. My girl doesn't believe
I got it. I got to go to the colonel's

house for reception.

And you got trouble.

But Gloria's getting mad.

Well, tell her to call the engagement
off.

That's what she wants to do. But she has
to have the ring first.

Sarge, please.

Look, give me time.

Let's go, Ernie. She's all gassed up. We
can catch the first show. Can't see the

torsos in town.

Come on, Sarge. We're going to the
burlesque show.

Sarge, the burlesque show.

Without me.

You're not going?

You're the Iron Man of the runway.

If you don't go tonight, you'll stop
your 80th streak.

He heard once when he broke his glasses,
and all he could do was listen. No,

will you stop? I've got to go to this
wedding reception. I don't want to go,

I've got to. It's Thursday night, family
night.

Sarge, Tessie will miss you.

Sarge, without you, I'll make a sick way
back in the second row.

I can't go, I told you. I've got to go
to this reception.

Tell him you had to go and see your sick
aunt.

Oh, that's clever. I haven't even got a
man.

Go tell him.

Wait a minute.

I met that family.

Funny fact, she meets my family, right?

Hello, Johnny.

This is Andy. Look, Andy, my Aunt Tessie
came in town unexpectedly.

Yes. No, she's not a bilko. She's a
torso.

Yes. She's from the French side of our
family. Her name is Tessie La Torso.

And I thought I'd bring her to the
reception. What time is the reception?

I think it's only fair they meet my
family. What?

7 .30?

Well, I'll see if she can be there by 7.
What time does the show go on? 7 o

'clock. 7 o 'clock. Let me see if I can
time this right. 7 o 'clock. First thing

that comes down is the guy walks down
the aisle and says, All right, friends.

While they're moving and talking, I've
got a little knick -knack for each and

every morning. They can't stop me from
giving it away. And the girls come out

and do the opening chorus. Hello, hello.

Hello,

hello. And then the slave man comes up
with the tuxedo eyes. Girls, I expect a

couple of millionaires. Here they come
now. And then Shorty and Rags come in.

This must be the place. Meet you around
the corner. In half an hour.

And the whole thing. And then the
princess Marquis that comes out with the

disappearing doves, right?

And then the whole thing starts with a
big ballet.

Girl, up tomorrow, you're tantalizing.
And then Tessie comes out. Girl, up

tomorrow, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,
bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,

bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,
bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,

bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,
bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,

bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,

bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,

bop,

bop, I care. Look, I got a very
important date tonight, and I need a

companion. Where is she?

Tessie, I want to... I mean, when your
own government won't protect you.

I have something... What is this,
Russia? Look, Tessie, I didn't come here

discuss politics. I got something
important to tell you. Look, there's a

town from the south, a real live one.

Lotus? Oh, yes, he's Lotus. And look,
the only difficulty is his wife is

She's very jealous. I'm going to pass
you off as my aunt.

His wife is along? Oh, don't worry about
it. She's very nearsighted. She'll

never know the difference. Now, look,
you do this thing right, you can't miss.

You know what this means. You've always
wanted to do your own show.

Death of a salesman.

Yeah. A musical.

Yeah, nothing to worry about. I have one
of my boys pick you up. Pat Reilly's

his name. Don't worry, I'll be there.
I'll depend on you. So long, kid.

My own show.

Big deal.

Okay, girls, teddy bear number.

Stand up.

Watch that wiggle, stupid.

Gee, the sergeant must think a lot of
you taking you to meet his girl and her

folks at the colonel's reception.

Girl and her folks?

At the colonel's house saying I'm a dad?

I guess he's seen you so often he thinks
of you as part of the family.

Family?

No one's ever thought that much of me
before.

Oh, Mrs. Hall, we do appreciate all
you're doing so very much. Oh, we're so

happy to have you.

May I? I'll get you some tea. No, thank
you. We brought our own.

Oh, Sergeant Bilko, don't be so nervous.
I'm sure your aunt will be here in

time. I just want everything to go
perfect for when she gets here. Colonel,

you have any records here? Do you have
Gene Krupa's record of Girl of Tomorrow?

Oh, he's certainly devoted. You must be
very fond of your aunt. Oh, good

heavens, yes. I've been looking up to
her since I was a little boy.

That must be them. That's the car. Oh,
I'm so anxious to know her.

Will you leave room for a runway? I
mean, a little room here, please.

Oh, pardon me, madam.

Pardon me.

Ladies, was there a girl out here who
was dressed with a... Ernest, it is I,

your Aunt Teresa.

Tessie!

Tessie, you're my only hope.

Don't worry, I won't let you down.

I know, but what are you doing, Tessie?
You're dressed in something... Tessie,

what is it? Son, won't you please do the
honors?

Oh, yeah, this is my Aunt Teresa.
Ernest, she's lovely. This is Colonel

Hall.

Charmed. But haven't we met someplace
before? No, Colonel.

Don't tell me I never forget a face. A
face?

Oh, thank you, Colonel. No one's ever
said that about me before. She's

Oh, Bilko, we must see more of her.

Ma, you heard that. He wants us in. Go.

Go.

He said... But I'm going. I'm going back
home to Charleston.

Oh, it's the southern bit. This must be
the place. You know the southern bit.

Go. Tell him. Tell him the truth.

I certainly will. I want you folks to
know he's the nicest boy I've known in

whole life. Oh, Joanie, come in and meet
Ernest's aunt.

Oh, Ernest. She's beautiful.

Joanie. Well, I never... Well, you've
been hiding.

Welcome, Aunt Teresa.

Oh, thank you. Thank all you wonderful
married people for showing me the way.

Thank you.

Thank you.

John, isn't she wonderful?

I'm sure I've seen her somewhere before.

Didn't you ever hear of Garden Club?

Yeah,

my aunt has shown me the way. Hey, let's
make that announcement now. I'm ready.

Come on. Put that ball and chain on me.
Throw away the shackles of bachelors.

I'm ready. Let's go.

Sacrifice me on the altar of marriage.

Well, what?

Joni, haven't you told him? Haven't told
me what?

Well, Ernie, my boy, we're all crazy
about you. You're the funniest guy we

met. I know that.

Southern family. He's charming.

Solid. And the fact that you're taking
it like this shows that you've got

character. That's the way to be. That's
the way I always am.

What?

Take like what? Take what?

Well, there's nothing we can do. Joanie
is a woman and she changed her mind.

Joanie.

You mean you don't want to marry me? I'm
sorry, Ernie. I just... Well, Joanie,

you know I'm crazy about you. It's no
use talking. We pleaded with her. But

do we...

What's this reception for? Oh, don't
arrange this for a friend of hers who's

getting married.

Oh,

Johnny, it's the most beautiful ring.
Oh, this lovely Doberman has such

wonderful taste. Oh,

boy,

congratulations.

Thank you, Colonel. Well, shall we all
go into the dining room and make it

official? Oh, yes, fine. If Joe were
such a stubborn little fool.

John.

Now, Ernie, don't be like a baby.

Now, Joan, what are you doing to me? You
know I'm crazy about you.

When I get engaged, I don't want it to
be by mistake.

I want it with a ring that's meant for
me. I promise you, first thing in the

morning, I'll get you your own ring.

Man, after all, I hardly know you.

Hardly? Joan, we've been going together
five years.

Five years of spending every Saturday
night alone while you're playing poker.

Ernie, I promise you, you'll never be
without me on a Saturday night again.

Is that a promise? It's a promise my
word of honor we'll spend every Saturday

night together.

Well, it's enough for me.

Where are you going on Saturday night?

My girl's way. Your girl? Doesn't she
know Saturday night belongs to Polka?

Look, if you can't convince your girl
Saturday night is Polka night, you're no

man. Shut up and deal. Oh, yes, I am.

All right, who's in? I'm in.

Okay, what'll we play?

One -Eyed Jack the Wild and Black Egg
Count and All the Flushes.
