1
00:02:18,001 --> 00:02:22,271
Well, these are certainly the cleanest
steps on Madison Avenue.

2
00:02:22,272 --> 00:02:27,339
That's how Mr. Day wants them kept.

3
00:02:29,043 --> 00:02:32,777
Good morning.
Good morning.

4
00:02:43,801 --> 00:02:45,918
You're new here, aren't you?

5
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:51,053
Just this morning.
This is the way Mr. Day gets his milk.

6
00:03:10,399 --> 00:03:14,666
Annie, be careful of this dish.
You can burn your hand.

7
00:03:14,667 --> 00:03:17,343
And keep the cover on
till you're ready to serve them.

8
00:03:17,344 --> 00:03:23,444
Mr. Day likes his muffins hot.
I'll do that.

9
00:04:04,638 --> 00:04:09,871
Annie, is the table set for breakfast?
Yes ma'am.

10
00:04:12,500 --> 00:04:14,742
Good morning, ma'am.

11
00:04:14,743 --> 00:04:17,867
Good morning, Annie.
How are you getting along?

12
00:04:17,868 --> 00:04:19,600
All right, ma'am, I hope.

13
00:04:19,601 --> 00:04:21,374
Now don't be nervous just
because this is your first day.

14
00:04:21,375 --> 00:04:22,902
Everything's going to be all right.

15
00:04:22,903 --> 00:04:25,888
But I do hope nothing goes wrong.

16
00:04:25,889 --> 00:04:30,422
Oh no, Annie.
The cream and sugar go down at this end.

17
00:04:30,423 --> 00:04:34,917
I thought everyone could reach it from here.

18
00:04:34,918 --> 00:04:38,563
Mr. Day sits here.
Excuse me.

19
00:04:38,564 --> 00:04:40,960
I didn't know where to place
the napkins, ma'am.

20
00:04:40,961 --> 00:04:43,834
You can tell by the rings.
The boys have their initials.

21
00:04:43,835 --> 00:04:47,069
C for Clarence.
He sits here.

22
00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:49,645
J for John,
here.

23
00:04:49,646 --> 00:04:53,446
W for Whitney.
He sits over there next to his father.

24
00:04:53,447 --> 00:04:58,702
And the one with a little dog on it is Harlan's,
of course. He's the baby.

25
00:04:58,703 --> 00:05:03,503
This narrow plain one is mine.
And this is Mr. Day's.

26
00:05:03,724 --> 00:05:07,691
It's just like mine except that it got bent...
one morning.

27
00:05:07,692 --> 00:05:09,100
And that reminds me, Annie.

28
00:05:09,101 --> 00:05:13,000
Always have Mr. Day's coffee piping hot.
Yes, ma'am.

29
00:05:13,001 --> 00:05:15,000
And whenever Mr. Day speaks to you,
just say Yes sir.

30
00:05:15,001 --> 00:05:17,800
Don't be nervous. You'll get used to him.
Yes, ma'am.

31
00:05:17,801 --> 00:05:21,995
Oh, that beautiful rubber plant.
I'm so glad it came.

32
00:05:21,996 --> 00:05:24,154
You mustn't water it every day.

33
00:05:24,155 --> 00:05:27,555
Too much moisture makes it very unhappy.

34
00:05:27,556 --> 00:05:30,222
Well good morning, Mother.
I thought you were still upstairs.

35
00:05:30,223 --> 00:05:31,222
Good morning, Clarence.

36
00:05:31,223 --> 00:05:34,725
Father must be talking to himself.

37
00:05:35,614 --> 00:05:39,555
A redhead!
Did you sleep well, Mother?

38
00:05:39,556 --> 00:05:43,805
Yes, thank you, dear.
Golly I'm hungry.

39
00:05:43,806 --> 00:05:45,753
Oh and Annie,
we always start with fruit in the morning.

40
00:05:45,754 --> 00:05:48,888
Except the two younger boys
who have their porridge and milk.

41
00:05:48,889 --> 00:05:50,232
Jiminy! Another wreck on the New Haven!

42
00:05:50,233 --> 00:05:53,809
That always disturbs the stock market.
Father won't like that.

43
00:05:53,810 --> 00:05:56,789
I do wish the New Haven would stop having wrecks.

44
00:05:56,790 --> 00:05:58,837
If they knew how it upsets your father.

45
00:05:58,838 --> 00:06:02,559
My soul and body! Clarence,
what's happened to your coat?

46
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:03,330
Oh it ripped open again.

47
00:06:03,331 --> 00:06:05,554
Margaret mended it for me
but it won't stay mended.

48
00:06:05,555 --> 00:06:10,018
Oh dear. I'll just have to speak to your father
about a new suit of clothes.

49
00:06:10,019 --> 00:06:14,870
Clarence, why did you take my H2SO4
out of our clothes closet?

50
00:06:14,871 --> 00:06:18,221
I've told you a hundred times
that closet's not to make experiments in.

51
00:06:18,222 --> 00:06:21,789
Two?
Good morning, Mother.

52
00:06:21,790 --> 00:06:24,444
John, have you been making those
chemical smells again?

53
00:06:24,445 --> 00:06:26,555
No, Mother,
I'm making an electric battery.

54
00:06:26,556 --> 00:06:28,032
It'll ring a bell and everything.

55
00:06:28,033 --> 00:06:29,933
You know your father
doesn't like electricity.

56
00:06:29,934 --> 00:06:31,484
But Mother,
everything's going to be electricity.

57
00:06:31,485 --> 00:06:37,285
Not in this house.
Oh God!

58
00:06:37,286 --> 00:06:39,192
What's the matter, Clare?
What's wrong?

59
00:06:39,193 --> 00:06:42,075
Where's my necktie?
Which necktie?

60
00:06:42,076 --> 00:06:43,325
The one I gave you yesterday.

61
00:06:43,326 --> 00:06:46,999
It isn't pressed yet.
I forgot to give it to Margaret.

62
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,027
I told you distinctly I wanted
to wear that necktie today.

63
00:06:50,028 --> 00:06:51,888
You've got plenty of neckties.

64
00:06:51,889 --> 00:06:54,554
Put on another one right away
and come down to breakfast.

65
00:06:54,555 --> 00:06:57,971
I don't know what this world's coming to.

66
00:06:57,972 --> 00:07:01,777
Mother, may I have my breakfast early.
I'm going to play baseball.

67
00:07:01,778 --> 00:07:04,117
Three!

68
00:07:04,118 --> 00:07:07,007
Whitney, before you leave the house
you have to study your catechism.

69
00:07:07,008 --> 00:07:09,159
But Mother,
they're going to let me pitch today.

70
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,388
Good morning. Who won?
Giants, 7 to 3.

71
00:07:12,389 --> 00:07:14,473
Buck Ewing hit a home run!
Let me see!

72
00:07:14,474 --> 00:07:17,521
Boys, don't wrinkle the paper
before your father sees it.

73
00:07:17,522 --> 00:07:21,591
Mother, could you ask me my catechism now?
I think I know it.

74
00:07:21,592 --> 00:07:25,028
Well, let's see.
What is your name?

75
00:07:25,029 --> 00:07:27,000
Whitney Benjamin.
Who gave you your...

76
00:07:27,001 --> 00:07:32,980
Here I come...weeeeeee.
Come and help me down, Mother.

77
00:07:32,981 --> 00:07:35,410
We have steps to come down on.
Good morning, darling.

78
00:07:35,411 --> 00:07:37,443
Good morning, Mother.
How's your finger?

79
00:07:37,444 --> 00:07:40,466
It itches.
Good. That's a sign it's getting better.

80
00:07:40,467 --> 00:07:44,244
Come along.
Four!

81
00:07:44,245 --> 00:07:49,551
Oh let's see. What was I doing?
Oh yes, the Catechism.

82
00:07:49,552 --> 00:07:53,000
Who gave you your name?
My sponsors at baptism

83
00:07:53,001 --> 00:07:56,481
wherein I was made a member of Christ,
the child of God,

84
00:07:56,482 --> 00:07:58,634
and an inheritor of the kingdom of heaven.

85
00:07:58,635 --> 00:08:02,620
Mother, if I hadn't been baptized,
wouldn't I have any name?

86
00:08:02,621 --> 00:08:05,224
Not in the sight of the church.

87
00:08:05,225 --> 00:08:07,760
What did your sponsors then for you?

88
00:08:07,761 --> 00:08:10,655
They did promise and vow
three thing in my name.

89
00:08:10,656 --> 00:08:23,057
First, that I should renouce the devil and...
[continues speaking in background]

90
00:08:23,504 --> 00:08:27,636
And thirdly, that I should keep God's holy will

91
00:08:27,637 --> 00:08:30,100
and commandments and walk in the same

92
00:08:30,101 --> 00:08:32,101
all the days of my...
Morning, boys.

93
00:08:32,102 --> 00:08:36,555
Morning.
Good morning, Father.

94
00:08:36,556 --> 00:08:39,000
Morning, Vinnie.
Have a good night?

95
00:08:39,001 --> 00:08:42,114
Yes, thank you, Clare.
Good. Get down, boys.

96
00:08:42,115 --> 00:08:44,511
What's that thing doing in here?

97
00:08:44,512 --> 00:08:47,220
Clare, that's our new rubber plant.

98
00:08:47,221 --> 00:08:49,546
Place for rubber plants is on the equator.

99
00:08:49,547 --> 00:08:51,531
Uh, take that object out, Katherine.

100
00:08:51,532 --> 00:08:54,733
You're not Katherine.
No, sir.

101
00:08:54,734 --> 00:08:57,970
Good. Never liked Katherine anyway.

102
00:08:57,971 --> 00:09:02,837
Put it somewhere else, Annie,
but not too near a window.

103
00:09:02,838 --> 00:09:07,068
Sit down, Harlan.
Thank you, dear.

104
00:09:15,069 --> 00:09:20,068
Where did that dog come from?
She'll leave. I'll talk to her.

105
00:09:20,069 --> 00:09:24,506
What did you say?
Clare, that new suit looks very nice.

106
00:09:24,507 --> 00:09:27,000
A triffle tight.
You've put on a little weight, dear.

107
00:09:27,001 --> 00:09:28,950
I weigh just the same as I always have.

108
00:09:28,951 --> 00:09:33,499
Well, Clarence has just managed
to ruin the only decent suit he has.

109
00:09:33,500 --> 00:09:36,486
I'm sorry but I'm afraid he'll need
a new suit of clothes.

110
00:09:36,487 --> 00:09:39,958
Vinnie, Clarence has to learn
not to be so hard on his clothes.

111
00:09:39,959 --> 00:09:42,443
But Father, I thought...
You'll be starting at Yale in the fall.

112
00:09:42,444 --> 00:09:44,480
You'll be completely outfitted.
But nothing this summer.

113
00:09:44,481 --> 00:09:46,354
Can I have one of your old suits cut down for me?

114
00:09:46,355 --> 00:09:49,924
Every suit I own still has plenty of wear in it.

115
00:09:49,925 --> 00:09:52,999
I wear my clothes until they're worn out.

116
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,667
Well, if you want your clothes worn out, Clarence
can wear them out much faster than you can.

117
00:09:56,668 --> 00:09:58,369
Yes, and Father,
you never get a chance to wear yours out.

118
00:09:58,370 --> 00:10:02,181
Every time you get a new batch of clothes,
Mother sends the old ones to the missionary barrel.

119
00:10:02,182 --> 00:10:05,209
I guess I'm just as good
as any old missionary.

120
00:10:05,210 --> 00:10:10,110
Clarence, before you compare yourself to
a missionary, remember the sacrifices they make.

121
00:10:10,111 --> 00:10:12,242
Oh I don't know, Vinnie.

122
00:10:12,243 --> 00:10:16,133
I think my clothes would look better on Clarence
than on some Hottentot.

123
00:10:16,134 --> 00:10:20,821
Have that dark suit of mine cut down to fit you.

124
00:10:20,822 --> 00:10:23,043
Well thank you, Father.
One of Father's suits.

125
00:10:23,044 --> 00:10:24,821
Thank you, sir.

126
00:10:24,822 --> 00:10:28,335
In return for that, Clarence,
I want you to practice more often on your violin.

127
00:10:28,336 --> 00:10:30,939
Whitney, don't eat so fast.

128
00:10:30,940 --> 00:10:32,717
Well Father,
I'm going to pitch today.

129
00:10:32,718 --> 00:10:36,766
But before I go,
I have to study my catechism.

130
00:10:36,767 --> 00:10:38,502
What do you bother with that for?

131
00:10:38,503 --> 00:10:41,322
Because if he doesn't know his catechism,
he can't be confirmed.

132
00:10:41,323 --> 00:10:43,787
But Vinnie, Whitney's going to pitch today.

133
00:10:43,788 --> 00:10:46,461
He can be confirmed any old time.

134
00:10:46,462 --> 00:10:51,211
Clare, sometimes it seems to me you don't care
whether your children get to heaven or not.

135
00:10:51,212 --> 00:10:52,712
Oh, Whitney will get to heaven alright.

136
00:10:52,713 --> 00:10:55,482
I'll be there before you are, Whitney.
I'll see that you get in.

137
00:10:55,483 --> 00:10:57,775
And Whitney,
when we get to heaven,

138
00:10:57,776 --> 00:10:59,961
we'll organize a baseball team of our own.
Good.

139
00:10:59,962 --> 00:11:03,982
It would be just like you to try
and run things up there.

140
00:11:03,983 --> 00:11:07,462
Well, from all I've heard about heaven,
it seems to be a pretty unbusiness-like place.

141
00:11:07,463 --> 00:11:09,476
They could probably use
good man like me.

142
00:11:09,477 --> 00:11:12,554
What makes you so sure
they'll let you in to heaven?

143
00:11:12,555 --> 00:11:16,532
Well if they don't,
I'll certainly raise a devil of a row!

144
00:11:16,533 --> 00:11:20,900
Clare, I do hope you'll behave
when you get to heaven.

145
00:11:20,901 --> 00:11:24,401
Now Vinnie, what...

146
00:11:24,402 --> 00:11:27,000
Vinnie, how many times have I asked you

147
00:11:27,001 --> 00:11:30,338
not to engage a maid
who doesn't know how to serve properly?

148
00:11:30,339 --> 00:11:33,041
Clare, can't you see she's new
and doing her best?

149
00:11:33,042 --> 00:11:36,555
How can I serve myself when
she's holding that platter over my head?

150
00:11:36,556 --> 00:11:41,003
Hold it lower, Annie.
Yes, ma'am.

151
00:11:43,235 --> 00:11:46,346
What became of the one we had yesterday?

152
00:11:46,347 --> 00:11:48,647
I don't know why you can't keep a maid.

153
00:11:48,648 --> 00:11:50,222
Oh you don't!

154
00:11:50,223 --> 00:11:53,617
Why on earth can't you run your house
the way I run my office?

155
00:11:53,618 --> 00:11:56,218
All I want is service.

156
00:11:56,219 --> 00:12:01,111
[Annie weeping]
What the devil is that noise?

157
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,999
It's Annie.
Annie? Who's Annie?

158
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,610
The maid.
I'll take it, Annie.

159
00:12:12,611 --> 00:12:15,000
Clare, aren't you ashamed of yourself?

160
00:12:15,001 --> 00:12:16,666
What have I done now?

161
00:12:16,667 --> 00:12:20,000
You made her cry,
speaking to her the way you did.

162
00:12:20,001 --> 00:12:23,554
I never said a word to her.
I was addressing myself to you.

163
00:12:23,555 --> 00:12:26,471
I do wish you'd be more careful!

164
00:12:26,472 --> 00:12:30,202
It's hard enough to keep a maid
and the uniform just fit this one.

165
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,204
[stomping foot]
What's the matter, Clare? What's wrong?

166
00:12:40,999 --> 00:12:44,665
[dog barks]
What in the name of...

167
00:12:44,666 --> 00:12:49,222
Well!
Where did you come from?

168
00:12:49,223 --> 00:12:51,000
Who do you belong to?

169
00:12:51,001 --> 00:12:54,154
She's mine, Father.
Her name is Princess.

170
00:12:54,155 --> 00:12:59,000
Hmmm,
looks more like a Prince to me.

171
00:13:00,590 --> 00:13:05,002
What's wrong, sir?
Margaret, this bacon's good!

172
00:13:05,003 --> 00:13:08,759
Ohh...
Well it's good! Yes sir.

173
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:13,960
Harlan, how's that finger?
Come here and let me see it.

174
00:13:13,961 --> 00:13:16,621
Yes, Father.

175
00:13:18,622 --> 00:13:22,722
Ah, that's healing nicely.

176
00:13:22,723 --> 00:13:25,524
I guess you'll know the next time
that cats don't like to be hugged.

177
00:13:25,525 --> 00:13:28,712
It's alright to stroke them
but don't squeeze them.

178
00:13:28,713 --> 00:13:30,913
Now go back and finish your oatmeal.
I don't like oatmeal.

179
00:13:30,914 --> 00:13:33,000
Go on and finish it.
it's good for you.

180
00:13:33,001 --> 00:13:34,555
But I don't like it!

181
00:13:34,556 --> 00:13:37,313
I'll tell you what you like
and what you don't like.

182
00:13:37,314 --> 00:13:39,517
You're not old enough
to know about such things.

183
00:13:39,518 --> 00:13:42,747
You've no business not liking oatmeal.
It's good.

184
00:13:42,748 --> 00:13:45,906
I hate it!
That's enough! We won't discuss it!

185
00:13:45,907 --> 00:13:49,541
Eat that oatmeal at once!

186
00:13:55,542 --> 00:14:05,151
Aghhh...
[stomping floor]

187
00:14:05,152 --> 00:14:07,443
John, that letter's for your mother.

188
00:14:07,444 --> 00:14:10,324
I finished my oatmeal, Father.
May I be excused?

189
00:14:10,325 --> 00:14:12,269
Yes Whitney, you may go.
Pitch a good game.

190
00:14:12,270 --> 00:14:15,186
I will.
Whitney!

191
00:14:15,187 --> 00:14:19,654
Yes Mother, my catechism.

192
00:14:19,655 --> 00:14:21,505
Never mind this morning, darling.
Run along.

193
00:14:21,506 --> 00:14:22,512
Thank you, Mother!

194
00:14:22,513 --> 00:14:27,853
What's wrong, sir?
Margaret, what is this?

195
00:14:27,854 --> 00:14:29,805
Coffee, sir.
It is not coffee.

196
00:14:29,806 --> 00:14:33,450
You couldn't possibly take water and coffee beans
and arrive at that!

197
00:14:33,451 --> 00:14:36,111
It's slops! That's what it is!
Slops! Take it away.

198
00:14:36,112 --> 00:14:38,466
I come down to this table every morning hungry...

199
00:14:38,467 --> 00:14:41,887
Well if you're hungry, Clare,
why aren't you eating your breakfast?

200
00:14:41,888 --> 00:14:44,001
I am.

201
00:14:44,002 --> 00:14:47,299
Aunt Judith wants me to come up and vist her.

202
00:14:47,300 --> 00:14:51,998
Now Vinnie,
I want no more relatives in this house.

203
00:14:51,999 --> 00:14:55,597
We are going to live here by ourselves
in peace and comfort.

204
00:14:55,598 --> 00:14:58,998
Clare, I was saying,
Aunt Judith wants me to visit her.

205
00:14:58,999 --> 00:15:01,888
Oh.
Eat your oatmeal, dear.

206
00:15:01,889 --> 00:15:04,938
But what on earth is this?
Dear friend Day,

207
00:15:04,939 --> 00:15:08,666
We are assigning you the exclusive rights
to Staten Island for selling

208
00:15:08,667 --> 00:15:12,397
the Gem Home Popover Popcorn.
I think that's for me, Father.

209
00:15:12,398 --> 00:15:15,998
But then why isn't it addressed
to Clarence Day Jr?

210
00:15:15,999 --> 00:15:18,027
Oh, it is.

211
00:15:18,028 --> 00:15:22,998
I wouldn't get mixed up in popcorn,
Clarence. It's too indigestible.

212
00:15:22,999 --> 00:15:25,110
Confound it!
Another wreck on the New Haven...

213
00:15:25,111 --> 00:15:28,111
If you please, ma'am.
There's a dollar due on a package.

214
00:15:28,112 --> 00:15:31,676
It's from Lewis and Congers.
Oh yes, those kitchen knives I ordered.

215
00:15:31,677 --> 00:15:33,666
Ah, make a memorandum of that, Vinnie.
One dollar...

216
00:15:33,667 --> 00:15:35,998
and whatever it was for.
Of course, Clare.

217
00:15:35,999 --> 00:15:39,928
I must have a record of what is spent
running this house.

218
00:15:39,929 --> 00:15:42,995
I've never understood what good a record is
after the money's gone!

219
00:15:42,996 --> 00:15:44,991
There's just a dollar, Margaret.

220
00:15:44,992 --> 00:15:48,000
Vinnie, this house must be run
on a business basis. Of course, dear.

221
00:15:48,001 --> 00:15:50,224
That's what the household accounts are for.

222
00:15:50,225 --> 00:15:53,308
Oh Clare, it's half past eight.
You don't want to be late at the office.

223
00:15:53,309 --> 00:15:57,065
Plenty of time.
Annie, clear the table now.

224
00:15:57,066 --> 00:16:00,337
Clarence. John.
Yes, Mother?

225
00:16:00,338 --> 00:16:04,000
You boys go up and move the small bureau
from my room into yours.

226
00:16:04,001 --> 00:16:05,331
Who's coming?
Cousin Cora.

227
00:16:05,332 --> 00:16:07,333
And she's bringing a friend with her,
a young girl.

228
00:16:07,334 --> 00:16:08,777
A girl!

229
00:16:08,778 --> 00:16:10,777
You would have to help entertain her,
Clarence.

230
00:16:10,778 --> 00:16:12,111
Oh Mother, do I have to?

231
00:16:12,112 --> 00:16:15,222
Wait till Father finds out we've got visitors!
There'll be a rumpus!

232
00:16:15,223 --> 00:16:17,222
John, don't criticise your father.

233
00:16:17,223 --> 00:16:20,998
He's very hospitable...
after he gets used to the idea.

234
00:16:20,999 --> 00:16:22,888
I like coffee.
I like tea.

235
00:16:22,889 --> 00:16:24,777
I like the girls
and the girls like me.

236
00:16:24,778 --> 00:16:26,657
Well, I don't like girls
and they don't like me.

237
00:16:26,658 --> 00:16:30,747
Oh God!
Go on, boys. Go on.

238
00:16:30,748 --> 00:16:34,359
What's the matter, Clare?
What's wrong?

239
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,555
How did that get in this room?

240
00:16:36,556 --> 00:16:40,088
Now, Clare.
How was the new maid to know?

241
00:16:40,089 --> 00:16:43,666
Keep that abomination out of here.
All right, I'll take it.

242
00:16:46,555 --> 00:16:50,498
Oh Clare dear, I'm afraid
I'm going to need some more money.

243
00:16:50,499 --> 00:16:52,555
You were complaining about
the coffee this morning.

244
00:16:52,556 --> 00:16:55,639
Well, that nice French drip
coffee pot is broken.

245
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:56,547
You know how it got broken.

246
00:16:56,548 --> 00:16:59,881
Never mind that, Vinnie.

247
00:16:59,882 --> 00:17:03,998
As I remember that coffee pot cost $5
and... something.

248
00:17:03,999 --> 00:17:06,381
I'll give you $6.

249
00:17:06,382 --> 00:17:10,569
When you get it, Vinnie,
enter the exact amount in the ledger.

250
00:17:10,570 --> 00:17:12,870
Of course, Clare.
We can't go on month after month

251
00:17:12,871 --> 00:17:14,874
having the household accounts
in such a mess.

252
00:17:14,875 --> 00:17:18,562
No, and I thought of a system
that will make my bookkeeping perfect!

253
00:17:18,563 --> 00:17:20,777
Well, I'm certainly relieved to hear that!

254
00:17:20,778 --> 00:17:24,555
All we have to do is open
charge accounts everywhere!

255
00:17:24,556 --> 00:17:26,160
And the stores will do my
bookkeeping for me!

256
00:17:26,161 --> 00:17:28,868
Now wait a minute, Vinne...

257
00:17:28,869 --> 00:17:32,445
Then when the bills come in
you'd know exactly where your money had gone!

258
00:17:32,446 --> 00:17:33,910
Yes! I certainly would!

259
00:17:33,911 --> 00:17:36,583
Vinnie, we get enough bills as it is!

260
00:17:36,584 --> 00:17:39,945
Clare dear, don't you hate those
arguments we have every month?

261
00:17:39,946 --> 00:17:42,346
I certainly do.

262
00:17:42,347 --> 00:17:46,555
Not to have those I should think
would be worth something to you.

263
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,778
Well, I'll open an account
at Lewis and Congers

264
00:17:51,779 --> 00:17:54,000
and one at McCreery's
to start with.

265
00:17:54,001 --> 00:17:55,000
Thank you, Clare.

266
00:17:55,001 --> 00:17:57,999
We'll see how it works out.
Thank you.

267
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,647
Oh, the rector is coming to tea today.

268
00:18:00,648 --> 00:18:03,355
The rector.
Well, I'm glad you warned me.

269
00:18:03,356 --> 00:18:06,555
I'll go to the club. Don't expect me
home until dinner time.

270
00:18:06,556 --> 00:18:12,141
Clare dear, I do wish you'd take
a little more interest in the church.

271
00:18:12,142 --> 00:18:14,208
Getting me into heaven
is your business, Vinnie.

272
00:18:14,209 --> 00:18:16,544
If there's anything wrong with my ticket
when I get there,

273
00:18:16,545 --> 00:18:18,044
you can fix it up.

274
00:18:18,045 --> 00:18:21,509
Everybody loves you so much,
I'm sure God must too.

275
00:18:21,510 --> 00:18:23,669
I'll do my best, Clare.

276
00:18:23,670 --> 00:18:27,385
It wouldn't be heaven without you.

277
00:18:27,386 --> 00:18:30,572
If you're there, Vinnie,
I'll manage to get in some way,

278
00:18:30,573 --> 00:18:34,306
even if I have to climb the fence.

Are these increased taxes
going into public improvements?

Or are they going into graft?

Answer me that honestly,

You can't?

Have you put an end to it?
No!

00:19:48,681 --> 00:19:52,215
and your boodle Board
of Aldermen out of office!

303
00:19:52,216 --> 00:19:53,465
I'm warning you for the last time!

304
00:19:53,466 --> 00:19:56,861
Robbery! That's what it is!
Highway robbery!

305
00:19:56,862 --> 00:20:00,998
Annie, take this fresh a cup
of coffee in to Mr. Day.

306
00:20:00,999 --> 00:20:07,027
But Mr. Day's got a visitor.
Run along in there.

307
00:20:07,028 --> 00:20:09,008
We pay you a good round sum
to watch after our interests.

308
00:20:09,009 --> 00:20:12,869
And all we get is inefficiency!

309
00:20:12,870 --> 00:20:17,945
I know you're a nincompoop and I
strongly suspect you of being a scalawag!

310
00:20:17,946 --> 00:20:21,376
You're not going to escape
your legal responsibilities!

311
00:20:21,377 --> 00:20:26,313
Legal responsibilities?
By God, I mean criminal responsibilities!

312
00:20:26,314 --> 00:20:29,744
Don't think for one minute
we're going to let you escape!

313
00:20:29,745 --> 00:20:37,845
We're going to throw you into jail!
[dishes breaking]

314
00:20:40,447 --> 00:20:44,221
Annie, are you hurt?
He can't throw me into jail!

315
00:20:44,222 --> 00:20:49,554
Vinnie? Vinnie, why can't
I have quiet here in the morning?

316
00:20:49,555 --> 00:20:51,222
Clare, what happened?

317
00:20:51,223 --> 00:20:53,665
Sounded to me as tho that maid
dropped a whole tray of dishes!

318
00:20:53,666 --> 00:20:55,822
Yes, but what did you say to her?

319
00:20:55,823 --> 00:20:58,111
Say to her?
I haven't seen her since breakfast!

320
00:20:58,112 --> 00:21:01,586
I better get to the office.
Oh yes Clare, you don't want to be late.

321
00:21:01,587 --> 00:21:03,357
I'll be home in plenty of time for dinner.

322
00:21:03,358 --> 00:21:06,871
Why don't we have
chicken fricassee tonight?

323
00:21:06,872 --> 00:21:10,505
Well, Clare, chicken's gone up!
It's 8 cents a pound!

324
00:21:12,506 --> 00:21:17,885
[Annie crying]

325
00:21:21,357 --> 00:21:26,351
Where the devil is she going
dressed up like that?

326
00:21:26,352 --> 00:21:28,998
Clare, you've done it again!
How could you?

327
00:21:28,999 --> 00:21:31,998
How could I what?
Can't you see she's leaving?

328
00:21:31,999 --> 00:21:35,000
Oh dear.
I have no time to engage a new maid.

329
00:21:35,001 --> 00:21:37,185
We'll have to have dinner out.
Dinner out!

330
00:21:37,186 --> 00:21:40,111
Nonsense!
I'll engage a new maid myself.

331
00:21:40,112 --> 00:21:42,514
Clare, you can't!
She has to fit the uniform.

332
00:21:42,515 --> 00:21:44,365
I have one here in an hour!

333
00:21:44,366 --> 00:21:47,907
Goodbye, dear.
Goodbye, Clare.

334
00:21:47,908 --> 00:21:49,555
Good morning, Mr. Day.
On your way to the office?

335
00:21:49,556 --> 00:21:53,102
Yes, Sergeant. Good morning.
Mrs. Day.

336
00:21:54,617 --> 00:21:59,417
Good morning, Mr. Day.
Morning, Jim.

337
00:22:01,110 --> 00:22:03,177
Giddap!

338
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,632
Cora, it's wonderful to see you.

339
00:22:26,633 --> 00:22:30,611
Well Vinnie, I declare,
you're getting younger and pretier every year!

340
00:22:30,612 --> 00:22:33,665
This is Mary Skinner.
Ed Skinner's daughter!

341
00:22:33,666 --> 00:22:35,998
My goodness I never
would have known you!

342
00:22:35,999 --> 00:22:38,998
Just leave your things out here
and come right on in.

343
00:22:38,999 --> 00:22:42,222
I heard my father talk so much about you.
Ah ha ha.

344
00:22:42,223 --> 00:22:46,999
Did he tell you how he used to dip
my pigtails in the ink well at school?

345
00:22:48,555 --> 00:22:52,444
What's the news in Pleasantville, Cora?
Oh Vinnie, I have so much to tell you.

346
00:22:52,445 --> 00:22:54,793
We wrote you that Aunt Carrie broke her hip.
Yes.

347
00:22:54,794 --> 00:22:56,894
That was the night Robert Ingersoll lectured.

348
00:22:56,895 --> 00:23:00,555
Of course she couldn't get there, but
was a good thing for Mr. Ingersol she didn't!

349
00:23:00,556 --> 00:23:04,777
How do you do, Cousin Cora?
Oh, Clarence, my my...

350
00:23:04,778 --> 00:23:08,998
Oh no, Cora, this is John.
John? Why how you've grown!

351
00:23:08,999 --> 00:23:11,443
You'll be a man before your mother...

352
00:23:11,444 --> 00:23:14,555
John, this is Mary Skinner.
How do you do?

353
00:23:14,556 --> 00:23:16,000
How do you do?

354
00:23:16,001 --> 00:23:18,666
Vinnie, everybody in Pleasantville
sends their love.

355
00:23:18,667 --> 00:23:21,888
Grandpa Evans, Cousin Edith,
Aunt Hattie. the Taylors.

356
00:23:21,889 --> 00:23:23,777
Oh, just everybody.
Cora, how is Grandpa Evans?

357
00:23:23,778 --> 00:23:25,333
Oh, he hasn't been at all well.

358
00:23:25,334 --> 00:23:28,000
You know he only has one kidney
and that's bloated.

359
00:23:28,001 --> 00:23:30,776
How do you do, Cousin Cora?
I'm glad to see you.

360
00:23:30,777 --> 00:23:34,000
This can't be Clarence!
Yes it is!

361
00:23:34,001 --> 00:23:36,666
My my!
My goodness!

362
00:23:36,667 --> 00:23:40,000
Every time I see you boys,
you've grown another foot!

363
00:23:40,001 --> 00:23:43,163
Let's see, you're going to St. Paul's now,
aren't you?

364
00:23:43,164 --> 00:23:46,111
St. Paul's? I was through with
St. Paul's long ago.

365
00:23:46,112 --> 00:23:47,776
I'm starting in Yale this fall.

366
00:23:47,777 --> 00:23:51,777
Yale!
Oh, oh Mary, this is Clarence.

367
00:23:51,778 --> 00:23:54,455
Mary Skinner.
How do you do?

368
00:23:54,456 --> 00:23:58,444
Oh, this is Mary's first trip to New York.
Yes it is.

369
00:23:58,445 --> 00:24:01,555
It's her first trip.
We'll have to show Mary around!

370
00:24:01,556 --> 00:24:07,333
Oh I tell you, I'll ask Mr. Day to take us all
to Delmonico's for dinner tonight.

371
00:24:07,334 --> 00:24:09,444
Delmonico's!
Think of that, Mary.

372
00:24:09,445 --> 00:24:12,998
Delmonico's,
And Cousin Clare's such a wonderful host.

373
00:24:12,999 --> 00:24:15,777
Well. I know you girls want to freshen up,
so come upstairs.

374
00:24:15,778 --> 00:24:17,000
Clarence, get their bags.

375
00:24:17,001 --> 00:24:20,727
I've given you girls Clarence's room,
but he didn't know about it.

376
00:24:20,728 --> 00:24:24,777
[chattering]

377
00:24:24,778 --> 00:24:29,776
John, get their old bags.
[chattering]

378
00:24:29,777 --> 00:24:36,776
Oh, you play the violin.
Well, I... I fool with it a little.

379
00:24:36,777 --> 00:24:38,998
You're just being modest.

380
00:24:38,999 --> 00:24:42,714
No, really I...
I play the piano.

381
00:24:42,715 --> 00:24:47,923
Not awfully well.
Now you're being modest.

382
00:24:47,924 --> 00:24:55,902
Do you ever play duets?
Well, I haven't up now.

383
00:24:55,903 --> 00:25:02,170
Neither have I, up to now.

384
00:25:04,243 --> 00:25:10,244
Cora didn't tell me about you.
I never met a Yale man before.

385
00:25:10,245 --> 00:25:13,473
[giggling...]

386
00:25:16,474 --> 00:25:23,607
What's happened to you?
Nothing. I feel fine.

387
00:25:44,147 --> 00:25:45,391
Where do you keep them?

388
00:25:45,392 --> 00:25:48,758
Do you wish domestic servants?
Where do you keep them?

389
00:25:48,759 --> 00:25:49,998
I will take your name and address.

390
00:25:49,999 --> 00:25:52,502
Confound it!
I'm late at the office now!

391
00:25:52,503 --> 00:25:56,398
If you will give me the details as to
what kind of person you require...

392
00:25:56,399 --> 00:25:58,666
I'm asking you where you keep them?

393
00:25:58,667 --> 00:26:03,468
Why the girls are in there,
but clients are not allowed in that room.

394
00:26:03,469 --> 00:26:05,998
If you will tell me the kind of a position
you wish to have held,

395
00:26:05,999 --> 00:26:09,946
I'll be very glad to...

396
00:26:16,886 --> 00:26:20,052
Stand up...

397
00:26:20,330 --> 00:26:22,518
Sir, this is quite
against the rules!

398
00:26:22,519 --> 00:26:24,777
I must know
what you want the girl for!

399
00:26:24,778 --> 00:26:25,777
I'll take that one.

400
00:26:25,778 --> 00:26:27,555
What's your name?
Hilda, sir.

401
00:26:27,556 --> 00:26:29,998
Hilda, you go right over to
420 Madison Avenue.

402
00:26:29,999 --> 00:26:32,893
I will, sir.
That's all. Thank you.

403
00:26:32,894 --> 00:26:35,769
Sir, before I can let any girl go
from this establishment,

404
00:26:35,770 --> 00:26:38,483
I must know the character of the home
in which he will be employed.

405
00:26:38,484 --> 00:26:44,384
Madam, I am the character of my home.

406
00:26:45,776 --> 00:26:53,111
My duty toward my neighbor is to love him
as myself and to do unto all men as...as...

407
00:26:53,112 --> 00:26:59,914
...as they should do unto me...
...as they should do unto me, to...to...

408
00:26:59,915 --> 00:27:01,158
He really knows it.

409
00:27:01,159 --> 00:27:04,172
Well, he's done very well
for so young a boy.

410
00:27:04,173 --> 00:27:06,776
May I go now?
Yes, darling.

411
00:27:06,777 --> 00:27:08,333
Thank you, Dr. Lloyd.

412
00:27:08,334 --> 00:27:13,000
Come on, Harlan.
Wait for me.

413
00:27:13,001 --> 00:27:18,075
Ah, you and Mr. Day must be
very proud of your children.

414
00:27:18,076 --> 00:27:20,998
I was hoping I'd find
Mr. Day at home this afternoon.

415
00:27:20,999 --> 00:27:23,548
Well, he's usually home from the office
by this time.

416
00:27:23,549 --> 00:27:25,998
Perhaps he's gone for
gallop in the park.

417
00:27:25,999 --> 00:27:27,998
It's such a fine day.

418
00:27:27,999 --> 00:27:29,998
He's very fond of horseback riding,
I believe.

419
00:27:29,999 --> 00:27:31,576
Oh yes.
Tell me,

420
00:27:31,577 --> 00:27:34,076
has he ever been thrown from a horse?

421
00:27:34,077 --> 00:27:37,896
Oh no, no horse would throw Mr. Day!

422
00:27:37,897 --> 00:27:42,791
I just thought he might have had some accident.
I notice he never kneels in church.

423
00:27:42,792 --> 00:27:45,222
Oh, that's no accident.

424
00:27:45,223 --> 00:27:48,777
But I don't want you to think he doesn't pray.
He does.

425
00:27:48,778 --> 00:27:50,777
Why, sometimes you can hear him
all over the house!

426
00:27:50,778 --> 00:27:54,429
But he never kneels.

427
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:02,111
Ah, perhaps that's Mr. Day now.
I hardly think so.

428
00:28:02,933 --> 00:28:06,000
Ah, the devil!
I forgot!

429
00:28:06,001 --> 00:28:09,244
Clare, you're just in time for tea.
I'll send for some hot water.

430
00:28:09,245 --> 00:28:11,000
How are you, Dr. Lloyd?

431
00:28:11,001 --> 00:28:13,665
Just a brief second to have
a visit with you, Mr. Day.

432
00:28:13,666 --> 00:28:16,613
Mother, are they back yet?
No, Clarence, no.

433
00:28:16,614 --> 00:28:19,627
Except for a brief glimpse on the sabbath,
I don't see much of you.

434
00:28:19,628 --> 00:28:23,443
Well, Clare, have a busy day at the office?
Devilishly busy!

435
00:28:23,444 --> 00:28:29,607
Clare!
Ah...very busy day. Tired out.

436
00:28:29,608 --> 00:28:33,109
How a man can get tired just sitting
at a desk all day, I don't know!

437
00:28:33,110 --> 00:28:37,378
I suppose Wall Street is just as much
a mystery to you as it is to me, Dr. Lloyd.

438
00:28:37,379 --> 00:28:40,295
No, no. It's all very clear to me.

439
00:28:40,296 --> 00:28:43,142
My mind often goes to the businessman.

440
00:28:43,143 --> 00:28:45,157
The picture I'm most fond on is when

441
00:28:45,158 --> 00:28:47,169
I envision him at the close of the day's work.

442
00:28:47,170 --> 00:28:50,434
I see him pausing in his toil

443
00:28:50,435 --> 00:28:53,038
and it comes over him that all those

444
00:28:53,039 --> 00:28:57,998
figures of profit and loss are without
importance or consequence.

445
00:28:57,999 --> 00:29:00,776
Vanity and dust.

446
00:29:00,777 --> 00:29:04,386
Well, I'll be...
Clare!

447
00:29:04,714 --> 00:29:08,177
Yes ma'am?
Delia, some more hot water, please.

448
00:29:08,178 --> 00:29:09,671
Yes ma'am.
Who's that?

449
00:29:09,672 --> 00:29:13,865
The new maid.
Where's the one I sent this morning?

450
00:29:13,866 --> 00:29:16,859
The uniform didn't fit.

451
00:29:16,860 --> 00:29:20,374
I like the one I picked out better.

452
00:29:20,375 --> 00:29:25,213
Clare, Dr. Lloyd wants to tell us about
the plans for the new edifice.

453
00:29:25,214 --> 00:29:27,470
The new what?
The new church.

454
00:29:27,471 --> 00:29:29,888
You knew we were planning
to build a new church.

455
00:29:29,889 --> 00:29:33,318
Of course, we're going to have to raise
a large sum money.

456
00:29:33,319 --> 00:29:38,033
Well, personally I am against the church
hop skipping and jumping all over the town.

457
00:29:38,034 --> 00:29:41,616
So any contribution I make
will have to be a small one.

458
00:29:41,617 --> 00:29:44,777
The amount everyone is to subscribe
has already been decided.

459
00:29:44,778 --> 00:29:46,340
Who decided it?

460
00:29:46,341 --> 00:29:50,111
After considerable thought,
we voted that our supporting members

461
00:29:50,112 --> 00:29:53,998
should each contribute a sum
equal to the cost of their pew.

462
00:29:53,999 --> 00:29:56,888
I paid $5,000 for my pew!

463
00:29:56,889 --> 00:29:59,998
Yes, Clare.
That makes our contribution $5000.

464
00:29:59,999 --> 00:30:02,000
That's robbery!

465
00:30:02,001 --> 00:30:05,958
Do you know what that pew is worth today?
$3000!

466
00:30:05,959 --> 00:30:08,000
That's what the last one sold for.

467
00:30:08,001 --> 00:30:11,305
I've taken a dead loss of $2000
on that pew already!

468
00:30:11,306 --> 00:30:14,998
Frank Bags sold me that pew
when the market was at its peak!

469
00:30:14,999 --> 00:30:16,959
He knew when to get out!

470
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,875
And I'm warning you, Vinnie,

471
00:30:18,876 --> 00:30:22,998
if the market ever goes up,
I'm going to unload that pew!

472
00:30:22,999 --> 00:30:26,554
Clarence Day!
How can you speak of the temple of the Lord

473
00:30:26,555 --> 00:30:29,666
as though it was something to be
bought and sold on Wall Street?

474
00:30:29,667 --> 00:30:32,925
Now Mrs. Day, your husband
is a practical man.

475
00:30:32,926 --> 00:30:35,960
We've had to be practical
about the new church.

476
00:30:35,961 --> 00:30:38,440
We have all the facts and figures.

477
00:30:38,441 --> 00:30:41,998
Oh, what's the property worth
where we are now?

478
00:30:41,999 --> 00:30:47,821
Oh, let's see. Is it $40,000?
I know the figure has a 4 in it.

479
00:30:47,822 --> 00:30:50,998
What's the new piece of property
going to cost you?

480
00:30:50,999 --> 00:30:54,953
I think the figure I heard mentioned
was $85,000.

481
00:30:54,954 --> 00:30:58,776
Or was it $185,000?

482
00:30:58,777 --> 00:31:03,385
Dr. Lloyd, you preach that someday
we'll all have to answer to God.

483
00:31:03,386 --> 00:31:05,485
We shall indeed!

484
00:31:05,486 --> 00:31:10,489
Well, I hope God doesn't ask you
any questions with figures in them!

485
00:31:11,490 --> 00:31:15,000
Mr. Day is in the living room.
Thank you.

486
00:31:15,001 --> 00:31:19,444
It's Cousin Cora.
She's passing through town.

487
00:31:19,445 --> 00:31:24,378
Oh, well...

488
00:31:25,379 --> 00:31:31,887
Oh, hello. Hello. Hello.
Thank you for helping me. Come, Mary.

489
00:31:31,888 --> 00:31:36,969
Oh Vinnie, what a day!
We've been in every shop in town!

490
00:31:36,970 --> 00:31:38,532
Why, Cousin Clare.
Cora.

491
00:31:38,533 --> 00:31:42,332
My my!
You're as welcome as the flowers in May.

492
00:31:42,333 --> 00:31:43,775
This is Mary Skinner.
Mr. Day.

493
00:31:43,776 --> 00:31:46,555
How do you do?
I've been telling Mary all about you.

494
00:31:46,556 --> 00:31:49,888
She's been dying to meet you.
Well...

495
00:31:49,889 --> 00:31:52,888
Dr. Lloyd, I want you to meet
my favorite cousin, Miss Cartwright.

496
00:31:52,889 --> 00:31:53,554
How do you do?

497
00:31:53,555 --> 00:31:56,027
And this is Mary Skinner.
Miss Skinner, Dr. Lloyd.

498
00:31:56,028 --> 00:31:57,998
How do you do?
How do you do?

499
00:31:57,999 --> 00:32:00,998
Well, this seems to be a family reunion.
I'll just run along.

500
00:32:00,999 --> 00:32:03,999
Goodbye, Dr. Lloyd.

501
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,325
Goodbye, Miss Cartwright.
Goodbye.

502
00:32:06,326 --> 00:32:09,125
Clarence, you haven't said
'how do you do' to Dr. Lloyd.

503
00:32:09,126 --> 00:32:11,242
Goodbye, Dr. Lloyd.

504
00:32:11,243 --> 00:32:13,186
Goodbye, everybody.
I'll go to the door with you, Dr. Lloyd.

505
00:32:13,187 --> 00:32:17,562
Thank you so much for the tea.
Those muffins were delicious.

506
00:32:17,563 --> 00:32:19,483
Who did you say this pretty little girl is?

507
00:32:19,484 --> 00:32:22,998
She's Ed Skinner's daughter.
This is Mary's first trip to New York.

508
00:32:22,999 --> 00:32:24,444
Oh sit down. Sit down.

509
00:32:24,445 --> 00:32:26,798
Have some tea.
We had tea downtown.

510
00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:30,999
Oh, never mind then, ah...Delia.
Sit down, sit down.

511
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,554
Even if you have had tea,
you can stay and visit for a while.

512
00:32:34,555 --> 00:32:37,555
As a matter of fact,
why don't you both stay to dinner.

513
00:32:37,556 --> 00:32:39,000
That's all arranged, Clare.

514
00:32:39,001 --> 00:32:41,889
Cora and Mary are going
to have dinner with us.

515
00:32:41,890 --> 00:32:43,528
Oh fine, fine.

516
00:32:43,529 --> 00:32:46,661
Of course, you'll just have to take potluck.
Well, I'd hardly call...

517
00:32:46,662 --> 00:32:49,426
Clare! Did you know the girls
are going to visit Aunt Judith

518
00:32:49,427 --> 00:32:52,888
in Springfield for a whole month!
Fine.

519
00:32:52,889 --> 00:32:55,264
Now, how long you are you going
to be in New York, Cora?

520
00:32:55,265 --> 00:32:57,077
All week!
Splendid!

521
00:32:57,078 --> 00:32:59,998
We'll hope to see something of you.
Well, you certainly will...

522
00:32:59,999 --> 00:33:03,111
Cora, did you find anything
you wanted in the shop?

523
00:33:03,112 --> 00:33:05,777
Oh, I can't wait to show you.
Oh, but I'm afraid

524
00:33:05,778 --> 00:33:08,888
some of these packages can't be opened
in front of Cousin Clare!

525
00:33:08,889 --> 00:33:10,998
Shall I leave the room?

526
00:33:10,999 --> 00:33:17,307
[laughing]

527
00:33:17,308 --> 00:33:20,998
Oh, Clarence. Would you take the
packages in the hall up to our room?

528
00:33:20,999 --> 00:33:22,555
Or should I say, your room!

529
00:33:22,556 --> 00:33:26,926
Wasn't it nice of Clarence to give up
his room to us for a whole week!

530
00:33:26,927 --> 00:33:30,231
Cora, come on I just can't wait
to see what's in those packages.

531
00:33:30,232 --> 00:33:33,294
Well, we'll be back soon.

532
00:33:33,295 --> 00:33:36,895
Ah, Vinnie, I wish to speak to you
before you go upstairs.

533
00:33:36,896 --> 00:33:38,669
I'll be down in just a minute, Clare.

534
00:33:38,670 --> 00:33:39,822
I wish to speak to you now!

535
00:33:39,823 --> 00:33:42,461
I'll be up in just a minute, Cora.

536
00:33:42,462 --> 00:33:44,444
It's all right, Vinnie.
Come along, Mary.

537
00:33:44,445 --> 00:33:47,127
Are those two women encamped in our house?
Now, Clare...

538
00:33:47,128 --> 00:33:49,052
Answer me!
Now Clare, you know...

539
00:33:49,053 --> 00:33:53,976
Answer me!
Just a minute... Clarence!

540
00:33:55,977 --> 00:33:59,476
Now Clare, you know you've
always been fond of Cora.

541
00:33:59,477 --> 00:34:02,351
What's that got to do with her packing
herself down in my house

542
00:34:02,352 --> 00:34:04,212
and bringing hordes of strangers with her.

543
00:34:04,213 --> 00:34:06,837
How can you call that sweet
little girl a horde of strangers?

544
00:34:06,838 --> 00:34:10,071
Why don't they go to a hotel?
New York is full of hotels

545
00:34:10,072 --> 00:34:12,776
built for the express purpose
of housing such nuisances.

546
00:34:12,777 --> 00:34:15,111
Clare two girls alone in a hotel!

547
00:34:15,112 --> 00:34:17,000
Well who knows what might happen to them!

548
00:34:17,001 --> 00:34:19,000
All right, then put them on the first train.

549
00:34:19,001 --> 00:34:21,443
They want to roam like gypsies,
lend them a hand!

550
00:34:21,444 --> 00:34:22,111
Keep them roaming!

551
00:34:22,112 --> 00:34:25,290
But Clare, they're just staying
in that little room of Clarence's.

552
00:34:25,291 --> 00:34:27,000
The trouble is,
they don't stay there!

553
00:34:27,001 --> 00:34:30,129
They stay in the bathroom.
Every time I want to take my bath,

554
00:34:30,130 --> 00:34:33,179
it's full of gigling females
washing their hair!

555
00:34:33,180 --> 00:34:35,222
I tell you, I won't have it!
Send them to a hotel!

556
00:34:35,223 --> 00:34:38,555
I'll pay the bill gladly,
but get them out of here!

557
00:34:38,556 --> 00:34:40,555
Father, I'm afraid
they can hear you upstairs!

558
00:34:40,556 --> 00:34:42,401
Then keep those doors closed!

559
00:34:43,402 --> 00:34:48,457
Clarence, you open those doors!
Open them all the way!

560
00:34:48,743 --> 00:34:52,075
Now Clare,
you be quiet and behave yourself.

561
00:34:52,076 --> 00:34:55,676
They're here,
and they're going to stay here.

562
00:34:55,826 --> 00:34:57,000
That's enough, Vinnie.

563
00:34:57,001 --> 00:35:00,212
I want no more
of this argument.

564
00:35:07,223 --> 00:35:10,000
Oh God!

565
00:35:11,001 --> 00:35:15,000
What I don't understand is
why this swarm of locusts

566
00:35:15,001 --> 00:35:17,231
always descends on us
without any warning!

567
00:35:17,555 --> 00:35:20,119
Oh thunder!

568
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,453
Vinnie...
Dear Vinnie.

573
00:36:13,257 --> 00:36:15,000
What's that?
Delmonico's?

574
00:36:15,001 --> 00:36:17,000
You're taking Mother, Cousin Cora
and Miss Skinner

575
00:36:17,001 --> 00:36:19,555
to Delmonico's for dinner tonight.

576
00:36:19,556 --> 00:36:21,666
Oh God!
[slams piano keys]

I won't have it!
I won't have it!

578
00:36:23,831 --> 00:36:26,296
I will not have my life
arranged for me!

579
00:36:26,297 --> 00:36:28,666
I bought this house
for my own comfort!

580
00:36:28,667 --> 00:36:31,000
I will not submit myself
to this indignity!

581
00:36:31,001 --> 00:36:33,000
Now Clare, what's the matter?
I won't stand it!

582
00:36:33,001 --> 00:36:37,304
By heaven, I won't stand it!
Clarence...

583
00:36:39,303 --> 00:36:43,149
Do I understand I am not permitted
to have dinner in my own home?

584
00:36:43,222 --> 00:36:46,886
Oh Clare,
a little change will do you good!

585
00:36:46,887 --> 00:36:49,109
I have home
to have dinner in.

586
00:36:49,110 --> 00:36:51,054
And any time I can't
have dinner at home,

587
00:36:51,055 --> 00:36:53,054
this house is for sale.

588
00:36:53,055 --> 00:36:54,555
Well Clare, you can't have
dinner here tonight

589
00:36:54,556 --> 00:36:56,047
because it isn't ordered.

590
00:36:56,048 --> 00:36:59,555
And besides, Cora and Mary want
to see something of New York.

591
00:36:59,556 --> 00:37:02,165
Well, that's no affair of mine!

592
00:37:02,166 --> 00:37:05,777
I am not a guide
to Chinatown and the Bowery.

593
00:37:09,590 --> 00:37:12,853
Oh Mr. Day,
I just love your house!

594
00:37:12,854 --> 00:37:15,950
I could live here forever!

595
00:37:20,555 --> 00:37:24,918
Cora is for you, Mrs. Day.
Oh yes. I'll run right up.

596
00:37:43,333 --> 00:37:46,555
I'm glad you like our house,
Miss Skinner.

597
00:37:46,556 --> 00:37:49,389
I like it very much,
Mr. Day.

598
00:37:49,390 --> 00:37:52,618
Praise from a stranger

00:47:41,348 --> 00:47:46,451
Can you imagine any man

754
00:47:46,452 --> 00:47:49,645
who has reached maturity
with the knowledge

755
00:47:49,646 --> 00:47:51,764
that he had never been baptized

756
00:47:51,765 --> 00:47:54,541
failing to hasten
to the holy font

757
00:47:54,542 --> 00:47:57,215
that his soul might be saved?

758
00:47:57,216 --> 00:48:01,695
As it says in the baptismal office,

759
00:48:01,696 --> 00:48:05,271
"Except a man be born of water
and of the spirit,

760
00:48:05,272 --> 00:48:08,500
he cannot enter into
the kingdom of God."

761
00:48:08,501 --> 00:48:13,813
"He that believeth
and is baptized

762
00:48:13,814 --> 00:48:17,771
shall be saved,
but he that believeth not

763
00:48:17,772 --> 00:48:20,828
shall be damned."

764
00:48:20,829 --> 00:48:23,223
What's that fellow up to?
He can't be...

765
00:48:23,224 --> 00:48:25,000
Which also shows us
the great benefit we reap...

766
00:48:25,001 --> 00:48:27,335
[loud sermon continues...]
Tell Father, Shhh!

767
00:48:28,555 --> 00:48:30,335
Tell Father, Shhh!

768
00:48:30,555 --> 00:48:32,335
Tell Father, Shhh!

769
00:48:32,555 --> 00:48:35,000
Tell Father, Shhh!

770
00:48:35,555 --> 00:48:38,998
Mother says, Shhh!
[loud sermon continues...]

771
00:48:38,999 --> 00:48:43,467
"For the promise is to you
and to your children.

772
00:48:43,468 --> 00:48:47,329
Doubt ye not therefore,

773
00:48:47,330 --> 00:48:52,730
but earnestly believe."

774
00:48:55,344 --> 00:48:58,017
In the name of the Father
and of the Son

775
00:48:58,018 --> 00:49:01,384
and of the Holy Ghost.
Amen.

776
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,748
This is William Tyler Wickersham.

777
00:49:33,749 --> 00:49:36,560
And this is
Wilhemina Eugenia Wickersham.

778
00:49:36,561 --> 00:49:39,333
What a lovely day for
them to be baptized.

779
00:49:39,334 --> 00:49:41,955
The happiest day in my life.

780
00:49:46,055 --> 00:49:50,822
Lovely sermon.
Thank you, Mrs. Day.

781
00:49:56,985 --> 00:50:00,138
Clare, you know I didn't
ask Dr. Lloyd to do that.

782
00:50:00,139 --> 00:50:01,555
You must have said something.

783
00:50:01,556 --> 00:50:04,339
Well, I had to find out from him
if we were really married.

784
00:50:04,340 --> 00:50:06,527
I am married and
I'm not baptized.

785
00:50:06,528 --> 00:50:08,000
And as far as I'm concerned,

786
00:50:08,001 --> 00:50:09,555
the whole congregation
can know it.

787
00:50:09,556 --> 00:50:12,222
They certainly know it now.
That suits me.

788
00:50:12,223 --> 00:50:14,000
I don't go to church
to be preached at

789
00:50:14,001 --> 00:50:16,000
as though I were
some lost sheep.

790
00:50:16,001 --> 00:50:19,000
Clare, you don't seem to understand
what the church is for.

791
00:50:19,001 --> 00:50:21,319
Vinnie, if there's one place
the church should leave alone,

792
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,597
it's a man's soul!

793
00:50:29,598 --> 00:50:33,681
Well, he's going to be baptized,
Cora, you mark my word!

794
00:50:33,682 --> 00:50:36,007
I just couldn't go to heaven
without Clare.

795
00:50:36,008 --> 00:50:39,889
Why, I get lonesome for him
even when I go to Ohio!

796
00:50:39,890 --> 00:50:44,111
It's awfully hard on a woman
to love a man like Clare so much.

797
00:50:44,133 --> 00:50:46,257
Oh, men are so aggravating.

798
00:50:46,258 --> 00:50:50,174
They take everything for granted.
They certainly do!

799
00:50:50,175 --> 00:50:53,075
You know, I don't believe
Clare's come right out

800
00:50:53,076 --> 00:50:55,000
and told me he loves me
since we've been married.

801
00:50:55,001 --> 00:50:57,998
Of course, I know he does because
I keep reminding him of it.

802
00:50:57,999 --> 00:50:59,998
You have to keep
reminding them, Cora.

803
00:51:00,555 --> 00:51:04,111
Vinnie,
the table isn't set for dinner yet.

804
00:51:05,444 --> 00:51:07,969
I'll be back in a minute, Cora.

805
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,980
We're having it after Cora and Mary
go to the train.

806
00:51:10,981 --> 00:51:12,555
Their cab is coming at 1:00.

807
00:51:12,556 --> 00:51:14,974
Cab? The horse cars go
right past the door.

808
00:51:14,975 --> 00:51:17,333
But Clare,
they have those heavy bags.

809
00:51:17,334 --> 00:51:19,898
Cabs are a waste of money.

810
00:51:19,899 --> 00:51:22,111
Well, if dinner is going to be delayed,
I'll work on this month's bills.

811
00:51:22,112 --> 00:51:24,222
Where are they?
Now Clare, it isn't fair

812
00:51:24,223 --> 00:51:27,000
to go over the household accounts
when you're hungry.

813
00:51:27,001 --> 00:51:29,107
Vinnie, where are those bills?

814
00:51:29,108 --> 00:51:31,274
They're in the library
on your desk.

815
00:51:31,275 --> 00:51:34,222
I didn't know dinner
was going to be late.

816
00:51:34,223 --> 00:51:36,453
Nobody ever tells me anything
in this house.

817
00:51:36,555 --> 00:51:38,858
Back home I ride all the time.
I love horses.

818
00:51:38,859 --> 00:51:41,774
The horse is my favorite animal.

819
00:51:41,775 --> 00:51:43,074
Oh my goodness.
Where have you two been?

820
00:51:43,075 --> 00:51:45,420
Clarence wanted to show me his
his grandfather's house.

821
00:51:45,421 --> 00:51:47,771
You will have to hurry
and finish your packing.

822
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:49,080
It won't take me long.

823
00:51:49,111 --> 00:51:52,156
Can I help you pack?
Clarence!

824
00:51:54,157 --> 00:51:58,906
Clarence, why didn't you
kneel in church today?

825
00:51:58,907 --> 00:52:02,671
I...
I just couldn't.

826
00:52:04,672 --> 00:52:07,859
If it's because your father doesn't kneel,
you must remember

827
00:52:07,860 --> 00:52:10,942
he wasn't brought up to kneel in church.
But you were.

828
00:52:12,943 --> 00:52:16,505
Has it anything to do with Mary?
I know she's a Methodist.

829
00:52:16,506 --> 00:52:19,000
Oh no, Mother. Methodists kneel.
Mary told me.

830
00:52:19,111 --> 00:52:22,241
They don't get up-and-down so much,
but they stay down longer.

831
00:52:23,673 --> 00:52:26,150
Clarence, you want to kneel,
don't you?

832
00:52:26,151 --> 00:52:28,000
Oh yes!
I wanted to kneel today.

833
00:52:28,001 --> 00:52:33,555
I tried! You saw me try!
But... I just couldn't.

834
00:52:33,556 --> 00:52:38,116
Is that suit of your father's too tight for you?
No, it's not too tight.

835
00:52:38,117 --> 00:52:42,111
What is it?
Mother, very peculiar things

836
00:52:42,112 --> 00:52:43,791
have happened to me since
I started to wear this suit.

837
00:52:43,792 --> 00:52:48,778
I can't seem to make these clothes
do anything Father wouldn't do!

838
00:52:48,930 --> 00:52:51,159
That's nonsense, Clarence.

839
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,556
And not to kneel
in church is a sacrilege.

840
00:52:53,557 --> 00:52:56,778
Making Father's trousers kneel
seemed more of a sacrilege.

841
00:52:56,779 --> 00:52:58,555
Clarence!
Do you know what happened

842
00:52:58,556 --> 00:53:00,701
at Dura Wakefield's party
for Mary last night?

843
00:53:00,702 --> 00:53:02,111
We were playing musical chairs

844
00:53:02,112 --> 00:53:04,104
and some girl sat down suddenly
right in my lap.

845
00:53:04,105 --> 00:53:05,998
Well I jumped up so fast
she almost got hurt!

846
00:53:05,999 --> 00:53:09,930
She was sitting
on Father's trousers!

847
00:53:09,931 --> 00:53:13,000
Well Mother, I've got to have
a suit of my own!

848
00:53:13,001 --> 00:53:18,333
My soul and body! Well you'll just
have to talk to your father about it.

849
00:53:18,334 --> 00:53:23,000
I'm sure if you approach him the right way,
you know, tactfully, he'll see.

850
00:53:23,001 --> 00:53:29,140
Oh excuse me.
Gracious! It didn't take you very long.

851
00:53:30,555 --> 00:53:34,759
Well I'll see about your box
lunch for the train.

852
00:53:36,333 --> 00:53:40,260
Remember, it's Sunday.

853
00:53:44,261 --> 00:53:49,666
I... I was hoping we could have a few
minutes together before you left.

854
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:55,635
Cora had so much to do,
I wanted to get out of her way.

855
00:53:55,636 --> 00:53:58,343
Well, didn't you want to see me?

856
00:53:58,344 --> 00:54:04,398
I did want to tell you how much
I've enjoyed our... friendship.

857
00:54:05,934 --> 00:54:09,888
Oh hello. Mother told us to sit in
the living room till dinner's ready.

858
00:54:09,889 --> 00:54:13,392
Not on the best sofa! Hello.
Hello.

859
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,444
Have you ever been out on our porch?
Oh yes.

860
00:54:17,445 --> 00:54:19,128
Well let me show it to you!

861
00:54:21,129 --> 00:54:24,555
It's awfully hard to grow up
in a family with children.

862
00:54:24,556 --> 00:54:28,650
My, I've never known a week
to pass so quickly.

863
00:54:31,651 --> 00:54:34,444
Why I...
Yes?

864
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,555
Why I...
Yes?

865
00:54:37,556 --> 00:54:40,221
You're going to write me when you
when you get to Springfield, aren't you?

866
00:54:40,222 --> 00:54:42,512
Of course,
if you write me first.

867
00:54:42,513 --> 00:54:44,595
But you'll have something to write about,

868
00:54:44,596 --> 00:54:47,657
your trip and aunt Judith
and how things are in Springfield.

869
00:54:47,658 --> 00:54:50,000
You write me as soon as you get there.

870
00:54:50,001 --> 00:54:55,222
Maybe I'll be too busy.
Maybe I won't have time.

871
00:54:55,223 --> 00:54:58,888
Well, you find the time!
Let's not have any nonsense about that!

872
00:54:58,889 --> 00:55:02,139
You'll write me first, and you'll
do it right away, the first day.

873
00:55:03,923 --> 00:55:07,222
How do you know I'll take
orders from you?

874
00:55:07,243 --> 00:55:10,444
Well I'll show you!
Give me your hand!

875
00:55:10,445 --> 00:55:13,111
Why should I?
Give me your hand, confound it!

876
00:55:13,222 --> 00:55:16,582
Why do you want...
my hand?

877
00:55:16,583 --> 00:55:21,950
I just wanted it.
[sighs]

878
00:55:22,619 --> 00:55:25,986
What are you thinking about?
I was just thinking.

879
00:55:25,987 --> 00:55:27,771
About what?

880
00:55:27,772 --> 00:55:31,785
I was hoping you'd write me first
because that would mean you liked me.

881
00:55:31,786 --> 00:55:35,000
What's my writing first got to do
with liking you?

882
00:55:35,001 --> 00:55:39,000
You do like me then?
Of course I do.

883
00:55:39,091 --> 00:55:43,410
I like you better than
any girl I ever met!

884
00:55:45,411 --> 00:55:48,007
But you don't like me
well enough to write first?

885
00:55:48,008 --> 00:55:51,222
Well I don't see how one thing's
got anything to do with the other!

886
00:55:51,223 --> 00:55:56,444
But a girl can't write first because...
because she's a girl!

887
00:55:56,445 --> 00:55:57,998
Well that's nonsense!

888
00:55:57,999 --> 00:56:00,555
if a girl has something to write about
and a fellow hasn't,

889
00:56:00,556 --> 00:56:02,555
there's no reason why she
shouldn't write first.

890
00:56:02,556 --> 00:56:07,111
You know, the first three days I was here,
you'd do anything for me!

891
00:56:07,112 --> 00:56:10,876
And then you changed!
You used to be a lot of fun.

892
00:56:10,877 --> 00:56:14,689
Then all of a sudden,
you turned into an old sobersides.

893
00:56:14,704 --> 00:56:18,272
Why... why you even dress
like an old sobersides!

894
00:56:21,454 --> 00:56:25,000
What's the matter?
I just happened to remember something.

895
00:56:25,001 --> 00:56:27,888
What?
Oh, I know.

896
00:56:27,889 --> 00:56:31,100
It's because this is the last time
we'll be together.

897
00:56:31,101 --> 00:56:33,555
Mary! Please!
But Clarence,

898
00:56:33,556 --> 00:56:35,998
we'll see each other in a month
when I come back.

899
00:56:35,999 --> 00:56:39,777
Oh Clarence,
please write me first

900
00:56:39,778 --> 00:56:42,385
because that will show me
how much you like me.

901
00:56:42,386 --> 00:56:45,000
Pleeeeeease?

902
00:56:46,001 --> 00:56:49,389
I'll show you how much I like you...

903
00:56:51,388 --> 00:56:56,000
Get up! Get up!
Ohhhh! Ohhhh!

904
00:56:56,001 --> 00:56:59,387
Oh Mary, don't do that
Please, don't do that!

905
00:56:59,388 --> 00:57:03,000
Now you will think
i'm just a bold and forward girl!

906
00:57:03,001 --> 00:57:05,385
Oh no!
No, it's not that!

907
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,497
Was it because it's Sunday?

908
00:57:09,498 --> 00:57:11,444
No, it'd be the same any day.

909
00:57:11,445 --> 00:57:15,000
Oh! You just didn't want
me sitting on your lap!

910
00:57:15,001 --> 00:57:16,536
Oh, it was nice of you to do it!

911
00:57:16,537 --> 00:57:19,538
It was nice of me?
So you told me to get up!

912
00:57:19,539 --> 00:57:21,534
You just couldnt bear
to have me sit there!

913
00:57:21,535 --> 00:57:24,000
Oh and you needn't
write me first!

914
00:57:24,001 --> 00:57:26,111
You neeedn't write me
any letters at at all!

915
00:57:26,112 --> 00:57:29,000
Because I will tear them up
without opening them!

916
00:57:29,001 --> 00:57:31,534
I never want to see you again!

917
00:57:32,555 --> 00:57:37,534
Oh Mary! Mary, listen to me!
Mary! Please! Oh Mary...

918
00:57:41,535 --> 00:57:46,534
[shreiking}
Ohhhhhh!

919
00:57:48,535 --> 00:57:51,339
Clarence!

920
00:57:52,340 --> 00:57:54,000
Yes Father?

921
00:57:54,340 --> 00:57:57,812
That young lady's crying!
She's in tears.

922
00:57:57,813 --> 00:57:59,879
What's the meaning of this?

923
00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:01,590
I'm sorry, Father.
It's all my fault.

924
00:58:01,591 --> 00:58:04,396
Nonsense!
What's that girl trying to do to you?

925
00:58:04,397 --> 00:58:08,708
No no... she wasn't...
It was... I... I...

926
00:58:08,709 --> 00:58:11,222
Well! Whatever the quarrel
was about, Clarence,

927
00:58:11,223 --> 00:58:13,999
I'm glad
you held your own!

928
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:16,888
Father, I have to have
a new suit of clothes!

929
00:58:16,889 --> 00:58:18,819
You've got to give me
the money for it!

930
00:58:20,555 --> 00:58:24,389
Young man! Do you realize that
you're addressing your father?

931
00:58:26,390 --> 00:58:29,000
I'm sorry, Father.
I apologize.

932
00:58:29,001 --> 00:58:31,612
But you don't know how
important this is to me.

933
00:58:31,613 --> 00:58:33,777
A new suit of clothes
clothes is so impor...

934
00:58:34,252 --> 00:58:36,737
Oh why should...

935
00:58:38,111 --> 00:58:42,222
Clarence has your need
for a new suit of clothes

936
00:58:42,223 --> 00:58:44,050
anything to do
with that young lady?

937
00:58:44,051 --> 00:58:46,182
Yes Father.

938
00:58:47,183 --> 00:58:49,308
Why, Clarence!

939
00:58:50,555 --> 00:58:53,333
Why, this comes as
quite a shock to me!

940
00:58:53,334 --> 00:58:54,828
What does, Father?

941
00:58:54,829 --> 00:58:59,111
Well, you're being so...
grown-up!

942
00:58:59,112 --> 00:59:00,777
Still, I might have known,

943
00:59:00,778 --> 00:59:03,222
if you are going
to college this fall...

944
00:59:03,555 --> 00:59:06,145
Yes, you're at the age
when you'll be meeting girls.

945
00:59:08,086 --> 00:59:13,176
Clarence, there are things about women
that I think you ought to know.

946
00:59:15,177 --> 00:59:18,111
Sit down.

947
00:59:32,845 --> 00:59:35,824
Yes, I think it's better for you
to hear this from me

948
00:59:35,825 --> 00:59:37,695
than to have to learn it
for yourself.

949
00:59:39,630 --> 00:59:45,469
Clarence, women aren't the angels
that you think they are.

950
00:59:46,415 --> 00:59:48,848
Well now, first let me explain
this to you.

951
00:59:49,749 --> 00:59:53,081
You see, Clarence,
we men have to run this world.

952
00:59:53,082 --> 00:59:58,333
And it's not an easy job.
It takes work and it takes thinking.

953
00:59:58,334 --> 01:00:00,000
A man has to reason things out.

954
01:00:00,001 --> 01:00:04,526
Now you take a woman.
A woman thinks...

955
01:00:05,527 --> 01:00:10,000
No, I'm wrong right there!
A woman doesn't think at all!

956
01:00:10,111 --> 01:00:12,054
She gets stirred up!

957
01:00:12,055 --> 01:00:16,000
And she gets stirred up over
the most confounded things!

958
01:00:16,001 --> 01:00:18,111
Now I love my wife
just as much as any man.

959
01:00:18,112 --> 01:00:21,721
But that doesn't mean that I should
stand for a lot of falderol!

960
01:00:21,722 --> 01:00:25,555
By God, I won't stand for it!
Stand for what, Father?

961
01:00:25,556 --> 01:00:28,499
That's the one thing I shall not
submit myself to!

962
01:00:28,500 --> 01:00:34,007
Clarence, if a man thinks a certain thing
is wrong, he shouldn't do it!

963
01:00:34,126 --> 01:00:36,729
If he thinks it's right,
he should do it!

964
01:00:36,730 --> 01:00:39,444
Now, that has nothing to do with
whether he loves his wife or not!

965
01:00:39,445 --> 01:00:42,000
Who says it has, Father?
They do!

966
01:00:42,001 --> 01:00:43,611
Who, sir?
Women!

967
01:00:43,612 --> 01:00:46,998
They get stirred up and then
they try to get you stirred up too!

968
01:00:46,999 --> 01:00:50,444
But don't you let them do it, Clarence!
Don't you let them do it!

969
01:00:50,515 --> 01:00:53,777
Now, if you can keep reason
and logic in the argument,

970
01:00:53,778 --> 01:00:56,444
well, a man can hold
his own, of course.

971
01:00:56,888 --> 01:00:59,444
But if they can switch you,

972
01:00:59,445 --> 01:01:02,264
pretty soon the argument's about
whether you love them or not!

973
01:01:02,265 --> 01:01:05,007
I swear, I don't know how they do it,

974
01:01:05,008 --> 01:01:08,230
but don't you let them, Clarence.
Don't you let them!

975
01:01:08,231 --> 01:01:12,555
I see what you mean so far, Father.
If you don't watch yourself,

976
01:01:12,556 --> 01:01:14,555
love can make you do a lot of things
you don't want to do.

977
01:01:14,556 --> 01:01:16,888
Exactly!
But if you do watch out

978
01:01:16,889 --> 01:01:20,481
and know just how to handle women...
Then you'll be all right!

979
01:01:20,482 --> 01:01:24,301
All a man has to do is be firm!

980
01:01:24,302 --> 01:01:28,888
You know how sometimes I have
to be firm with your mother.

981
01:01:29,302 --> 01:01:32,981
Yes. But Father,
what can you do when they cry?

982
01:01:33,524 --> 01:01:40,857
Hmmm, well ahh...
that's quite a question.

983
01:01:40,858 --> 01:01:45,222
You just have to make them understand
that what you're doing is for their good.

984
01:01:45,223 --> 01:01:49,683
I see.
Now, Clarence, you know all about women.

985
01:01:56,185 --> 01:01:59,666
But Father...
Yes Clarence?

986
01:01:59,667 --> 01:02:02,000
I thought you were going to tell me about...

987
01:02:02,001 --> 01:02:05,888
About what?
About women!

988
01:02:07,222 --> 01:02:10,444
Clarence, there are some things
gentlemen don't discuss!

989
01:02:10,445 --> 01:02:13,261
I've told you all you need to know.

990
01:02:13,262 --> 01:02:16,664
The thing for you to remember is:
be firm.

991
01:02:45,249 --> 01:02:50,131
Mary, when you get to Springfield,
the very first thing you...

992
01:02:58,403 --> 01:03:01,361
Oh God!

993
01:03:01,362 --> 01:03:03,363
What's the matter, Clare?
What's wrong?

994
01:03:03,364 --> 01:03:06,555
Sit down, Vinnie.
Oh Clare, Cora and Mary are

995
01:03:06,556 --> 01:03:09,583
leaving any moment now...
Sit down.

996
01:03:09,584 --> 01:03:13,653
Vinnie, you know
I like to live well,

997
01:03:13,654 --> 01:03:15,555
and I want my family
to live well.

998
01:03:15,556 --> 01:03:18,099
But this house must be
run on a business basis!

999
01:03:18,100 --> 01:03:21,042
I must know how much money
I'm spending and what for!

1000
01:03:21,043 --> 01:03:23,000
For instance, if you recall,

1001
01:03:23,001 --> 01:03:26,389
a week ago I gave you $6.00
to buy a new coffee pot.

1002
01:03:26,390 --> 01:03:30,000
Yes, because you broke the old one!
You threw it right on the floor!

1003
01:03:30,071 --> 01:03:31,605
I'm not talking about that.

1004
01:03:31,606 --> 01:03:35,000
Now I find here among my...
It was a pity to break that nice coffee pot,

1005
01:03:35,001 --> 01:03:37,000
Clare, it was imported from France.

1006
01:03:37,001 --> 01:03:38,666
and that little shop
has stopped selling them.

1007
01:03:38,667 --> 01:03:40,696
But what has that...
They said the tariff wouldn't let them.

1008
01:03:40,697 --> 01:03:44,272
And that's your fault because
you're always voting to raise the tariff.

1009
01:03:44,273 --> 01:03:47,333
The tariff protects America
against cheap foreign labor.

1010
01:03:47,334 --> 01:03:48,390
Now this bill...

1011
01:03:48,391 --> 01:03:51,821
The tariff does nothing
but put up the prices

1012
01:03:51,822 --> 01:03:54,422
and that's hard on everybody
especially the farmer.

1013
01:03:54,423 --> 01:03:56,998
Vinnie, I wish to heaven you wouldn't
talk about matters

1014
01:03:56,999 --> 01:03:59,888
you don't know anything about!
I do too know about them!

1015
01:03:59,889 --> 01:04:03,666
Miss Guelig says that every intelligent
woman should have some opinion about...

1016
01:04:03,667 --> 01:04:05,333
Who may I ask is Miss Guelig?

1017
01:04:05,334 --> 01:04:07,444
She's the current events woman.
I told you about.

1018
01:04:07,445 --> 01:04:09,666
And the tickets
are $1 every Tuesday.

1019
01:04:10,018 --> 01:04:13,135
Do you mean to tell me that
a pack of idle minded females

1020
01:04:13,136 --> 01:04:17,079
pay $1 apiece to hear another female
gavel about the events of the day!?

1021
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:19,777
Listen to me if you want to know
anything about the events of the day!

1022
01:04:19,778 --> 01:04:22,565
But do you get so excited, Clare!

1023
01:04:22,566 --> 01:04:25,666
And besides, Miss Guelig says
that our president,

1024
01:04:25,667 --> 01:04:29,000
whom you're always belittling,
prays to God for guidance.

1025
01:04:29,001 --> 01:04:33,000
Vinnie, what happened to that $6.00?
What $6.00?

1026
01:04:34,845 --> 01:04:38,777
I gave you $6.00
to buy a new coffee pot.

1027
01:04:38,778 --> 01:04:41,555
Now I find that you apparently
got one at Lewis and Congers

1028
01:04:41,556 --> 01:04:43,240
and charged it!
Here's their bill.

1029
01:04:43,241 --> 01:04:45,504
One coffee pot - $5.00.

1030
01:04:45,505 --> 01:04:49,000
So you owe me a dollar!
And you can hand it right over!

1031
01:04:49,001 --> 01:04:50,185
I'll do nothing of the kind!

1032
01:04:50,186 --> 01:04:53,000
What did you do with that $6.00?

1033
01:04:53,001 --> 01:04:56,220
Well Clare, I can't tell you now, dear.

1034
01:04:56,221 --> 01:04:59,000
Why didn't you ask me at the time?

1035
01:05:01,001 --> 01:05:04,000
I give up!
Wait a minute!

1036
01:05:04,001 --> 01:05:07,444
I spent $4.50 for
that new umbrella.

1037
01:05:07,458 --> 01:05:11,666
Now we're getting somewhere!
One umbrella - $4.50.

1038
01:05:11,667 --> 01:05:14,866
And that must have been in the week
I paid Mrs. Tobin for two extra days washing.

1039
01:05:14,867 --> 01:05:15,998
Mrs. Tobin...

1040
01:05:15,999 --> 01:05:21,415
Tthat's $2 more.
that makes... that makes up... $6.50.

1041
01:05:21,416 --> 01:05:25,200
And that's another 50¢ you owe me!
I don't owe you anything!

1042
01:05:25,222 --> 01:05:28,444
What you owe me is an explanation
of where my money is gone!

1043
01:05:28,548 --> 01:05:31,326
I do the best I can
to keep down expenses.

1044
01:05:31,327 --> 01:05:34,555
You know yourself, Cousin Phoebe
spends twice as much as we do.

1045
01:05:34,556 --> 01:05:36,726
Don't talk to me about
your cousin Phoebe!

1046
01:05:36,777 --> 01:05:39,527
You talk about your
own relatives enough!

1047
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,688
That's not fair, Vinnie.

1048
01:05:41,689 --> 01:05:45,299
When I talk about my relatives,
I criticize them!

1049
01:05:45,300 --> 01:05:48,000
I can't even speak
of Cousin Phoebe!

1050
01:05:48,001 --> 01:05:49,555
You can speak of her
all you want to.

1051
01:05:49,556 --> 01:05:52,000
But I won't have Cousin Phoebe
or anyone else

1052
01:05:52,001 --> 01:05:53,980
dictating to me
how to run my house!

1053
01:05:53,981 --> 01:05:56,757
I didn't say a word
about her dictating.

1054
01:05:56,758 --> 01:06:03,000
Clare, you know she isn't that...
You said... You said...

1055
01:06:03,001 --> 01:06:04,998
I don't know what you said now!

1056
01:06:04,999 --> 01:06:06,888
You never stick to the point!

1057
01:06:07,777 --> 01:06:11,168
Now, we're going over this
account book - item by item.

1058
01:06:11,169 --> 01:06:14,444
I find here a bill for $38.

1059
01:06:14,445 --> 01:06:17,444
I don't know what you expect of me.

1060
01:06:17,445 --> 01:06:22,265
I tire myself out chasing up
and down those stairs all day long,

1061
01:06:22,266 --> 01:06:26,444
trying to look after your comfort,
to bring up our children...

1062
01:06:26,445 --> 01:06:29,000
I do the mending
and the marketing.

1063
01:06:29,555 --> 01:06:33,000
Now you want me to be
an expert book keeper too!

1064
01:06:42,864 --> 01:06:46,900
Vinnie, I want to
be reasonable. But...

1065
01:06:47,555 --> 01:06:51,555
Can't you understand?
I'm doing all this for your own good.

1066
01:06:57,338 --> 01:07:00,555
Well, I suppose I'll have to go ahead
just paying the bills

1067
01:07:00,556 --> 01:07:03,386
and hoping I've got enough money
in the bank to meet them.

1068
01:07:03,865 --> 01:07:09,444
But it's all very discouraging.
I'll try to do better, Clare.

1069
01:07:09,445 --> 01:07:12,649
Well, that's all I'm asking.

1070
01:07:13,650 --> 01:07:17,777
Well, I'll it make out the checks
and sign them.

1071
01:07:18,778 --> 01:07:23,222
But... maybe I haven't any right
to sign those checks

1072
01:07:23,223 --> 01:07:26,000
since in the sight of the Lord
I haven't any name!

1073
01:07:26,001 --> 01:07:29,502
That's right! Clare,
to make those checks good,

1074
01:07:29,503 --> 01:07:32,111
you'll have to be baptized...
right away.

1075
01:07:32,112 --> 01:07:35,567
Vinnie, the bank doesn't care whether
I've been baptized or not.

1076
01:07:35,568 --> 01:07:38,553
Well, I care!
And no matter what Dr. Lloyd said,

1077
01:07:38,554 --> 01:07:40,845
I'm not sure we're really married.

1078
01:07:40,846 --> 01:07:43,040
Vinnie, we have four children!

1079
01:07:43,041 --> 01:07:46,000
If we're not married now,
we never will be!

1080
01:07:46,001 --> 01:07:49,222
Clare, Dr. Lloyd said this morning...
Ahh, that's all, Vinnie.

1081
01:07:49,555 --> 01:07:52,908
Uhh, I think you better go tell
Whitney to watch for the cab.

1082
01:07:52,998 --> 01:07:57,408
Not before you give me that $1.50.
What $1.50?

1083
01:07:57,444 --> 01:08:01,555
That $1.50 you owe me!
I don't owe you any $1.50!

1084
01:08:01,556 --> 01:08:04,000
I gave you money to buy
a coffee pot for me,

1085
01:08:04,001 --> 01:08:06,124
and somehow it turned into
an umbrella for you!

1086
01:08:06,125 --> 01:08:08,971
Why, Clarence Day! What kind
of man are you?

1087
01:08:08,972 --> 01:08:13,242
Quibbling about $1.50 when
your immortal soul is in danger!

1088
01:08:13,243 --> 01:08:16,924
And what's more...
All right! All right! All right!

1089
01:08:21,480 --> 01:08:23,444
Thank you, Clare.

1090
01:08:23,445 --> 01:08:26,243
Now the accounts are
all straight again!

1091
01:08:45,748 --> 01:08:48,554
What were you doing down there?

1092
01:08:48,555 --> 01:08:51,666
I'm setting up this new burglar alarm.
I invented it myself.

1093
01:08:51,667 --> 01:08:52,920
Have you got any money
you can lend me?

1094
01:08:52,921 --> 01:08:54,668
No, you owe me 30¢ now.

1095
01:08:54,669 --> 01:08:56,222
Well, I'll give you
my stamp collection

1096
01:08:56,223 --> 01:08:57,998
and my piece of
John Wilkes Booth's finger.

1097
01:08:57,999 --> 01:09:00,555
How much?
Enough to get a new suit of clothes.

1098
01:09:00,556 --> 01:09:03,111
If you can wait a month till I hear
from the Patent Office in Washington,

1099
01:09:03,112 --> 01:09:05,919
I may be rich!
I can't wait that long!

1100
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:07,020
Maybe I could get it sooner.

1101
01:09:07,021 --> 01:09:09,460
I'm gonna look into
something else tomorow.

1102
01:09:11,461 --> 01:09:14,888
Wanted. An energetic young man
to sell household necessity.

1103
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,315
Liberal commission.
Apply 312... John, let me have this job!

1104
01:09:18,316 --> 01:09:20,225
Why should I give you my job?
They're hard to get!

1105
01:09:20,226 --> 01:09:22,204
I've got to get
a new suit of clothes.

1106
01:09:22,205 --> 01:09:24,287
Maybe I could get the job
for both of us.

1107
01:09:24,288 --> 01:09:26,088
I'll ask the man.

1108
01:09:36,222 --> 01:09:39,907
The cab's here, Father.
Oh, thank you, Whitney.

1109
01:09:39,908 --> 01:09:43,163
Vinnie! Corra!
The cab's here!

1110
01:09:44,555 --> 01:09:48,504
Uhh, John, go up and get their bags.
Yes sir.

1111
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:52,000
Here's the lunch for the train, sir.

1112
01:09:52,001 --> 01:09:54,518
Well, take it out to the cab.

1113
01:09:55,519 --> 01:09:58,226
Who's that one?
It's Ellen. Delia left yesterday.

1114
01:09:58,227 --> 01:10:01,000
I don't know where your mother finds them.

1115
01:10:01,001 --> 01:10:03,111
Now Vinnie, don't you let Clare
worry about us.

1116
01:10:03,112 --> 01:10:04,111
We have plenty of time.

1117
01:10:04,112 --> 01:10:06,444
Ah, take the bags right on out, John.
Yes sir.

1118
01:10:06,445 --> 01:10:08,555
Well goodbye, Clarence.
It was so nice to see you.

1119
01:10:08,556 --> 01:10:10,000
Goodbye, Cousin Cora.

1120
01:10:10,001 --> 01:10:13,117
Goodbye, Whitney.
Now you be a good boy.

1121
01:10:13,118 --> 01:10:15,333
Goodbye, Cousin Cora.
Goodbye, Harlan.

1122
01:10:15,334 --> 01:10:16,998
Goodbye. Keep out of mischief.

1123
01:10:16,999 --> 01:10:18,555
Come along, everybody.
Don't keep the cab waiting.

1124
01:10:18,556 --> 01:10:19,373
Cabs cost money.

1125
01:10:19,374 --> 01:10:23,040
If there's one thing Mr. Day can't stand,
it's to keep a cab waiting.

1126
01:10:23,041 --> 01:10:24,075
If there's any waiting to do,

1127
01:10:24,076 --> 01:10:27,000
there's a waiting room at the
Grand Central Depot just for that.

1128
01:10:27,001 --> 01:10:31,222
Mary, aren't you even going
to shake hands with me?

1129
01:10:31,223 --> 01:10:33,000
I don't think I'd better.

1130
01:10:33,001 --> 01:10:37,000
You may remember, that when I get too
close to you, you feel contaminated.

1131
01:10:37,001 --> 01:10:40,333
Mary, you're going to write to me,
aren't you?

1132
01:10:40,334 --> 01:10:44,333
Are you going to write first?
No, Mary.

1133
01:10:44,334 --> 01:10:47,000
There are times when
a man must be firm.

1134
01:10:47,001 --> 01:10:49,000
Mary, Mother says you
better hurry out

1135
01:10:49,001 --> 01:10:52,181
before Father starts yelling.
It's Sunday.

1136
01:10:52,182 --> 01:10:53,998
Goodbye, John.

1137
01:10:53,999 --> 01:10:56,333
I'm very happy to have made
YOUR acquaintance.

1138
01:10:56,334 --> 01:10:57,653
Thank you!

1139
01:10:59,654 --> 01:11:01,890
May I help you?
No, thank you.

1140
01:11:02,222 --> 01:11:04,077
Take care of yourself.

1141
01:11:04,078 --> 01:11:06,444
Goodbye, Mr. Day.
Goodbye, Mary.

1142
01:11:06,445 --> 01:11:08,077
I've had a wonderful time.
Bye bye.

1143
01:11:08,078 --> 01:11:13,645
Goodbye, Cousin Clare.
Goodbye, Cora.

1144
01:11:28,294 --> 01:11:33,009
Dear Mary...

1145
01:11:35,010 --> 01:11:40,333
My duty toward my neighbor
is to love him as myself

1146
01:11:40,334 --> 01:11:45,222
and to do to all men as I
would they should do unto me.

1147
01:11:45,223 --> 01:11:48,190
Has Father gone to the office yet?

1148
01:11:48,191 --> 01:11:49,666
Come on,
let's go to the ball field.

1149
01:11:49,667 --> 01:11:52,270
I've got to guard this box
till John comes back.

1150
01:11:52,271 --> 01:11:53,555
It's his burglar alarm.

1151
01:11:53,556 --> 01:11:55,105
It wouldn't work,
so he fixed it.

1152
01:11:55,106 --> 01:11:56,523
We're going to put it
back in the dining room

1153
01:11:56,524 --> 01:11:59,998
after Father goes to the office.
Are there burglars around?

1154
01:11:59,999 --> 01:12:01,774
Everywhere!
Oh...

1155
01:12:01,775 --> 01:12:06,555
...to love, honor, and succor
my father and my mother.

1156
01:12:06,556 --> 01:12:08,555
Why do you have to learn that?

1157
01:12:08,556 --> 01:12:10,222
Because if I don't,
I'll go to hell!

1158
01:12:10,223 --> 01:12:12,852
Father's going to hell!
He is not!

1159
01:12:12,853 --> 01:12:14,899
Yes he is,
because he isn't baptized!

1160
01:12:14,900 --> 01:12:17,444
He'll go to hell and burn
for a thousand years!

1161
01:12:17,445 --> 01:12:19,239
He won't! He won't!

1162
01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,295
He'll be in a lake of
fire and brimstone!

1163
01:12:21,296 --> 01:12:24,333
And a thousand devils with
pitchforks will be poking at him!

1164
01:12:24,334 --> 01:12:27,816
No! No! Mother dont' let...
Father will hear you!

1165
01:12:27,817 --> 01:12:33,818
[singing loudly:] ♪ Oh come, all ye faithful,
joyful and triumphant. ♪

1166
01:12:33,819 --> 01:12:38,333
Don't smother me!
♪ Oh come, all ye faithful... ♪

1167
01:12:38,334 --> 01:12:41,679
What's that noise?
Just singing, Father.

1168
01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:44,222
You boys, be quiet! You know
your mother isn't feeling well.

1169
01:12:44,223 --> 01:12:45,880
Yes, Father.

1170
01:12:55,798 --> 01:12:57,444
What did your mother say?

1171
01:12:57,445 --> 01:13:00,075
She says she doesn't
want any breakfast.

1172
01:13:00,076 --> 01:13:02,555
Now, why does your mother
do that to me?

1173
01:13:02,556 --> 01:13:05,887
She knows that it just upsets my day
when she doesn't come down to breakfast.

1174
01:13:05,888 --> 01:13:08,242
A special delivery, sir.
Thank you.

1175
01:13:10,243 --> 01:13:12,443
Where's John this morning?

1176
01:13:12,444 --> 01:13:15,165
John had his breakfast early, Father,
and went out to see about something.

1177
01:13:15,166 --> 01:13:16,173
See about what?

1178
01:13:16,174 --> 01:13:20,000
Well, John and I thought we'd
work this summer and earn some money.

1179
01:13:20,001 --> 01:13:22,840
Good! Work never hurt anyone.
It's good for them.

1180
01:13:22,841 --> 01:13:24,923
But if you're going to work,
work hard.

1181
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,214
King Solomon had the right idea
about work.

1182
01:13:28,222 --> 01:13:33,181
"Whatever thy hand findeth to do,"
Solomon said, "Do thy doggonedest!"

1183
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:40,888
Hmm, well I don't
understand this at all.

1184
01:13:40,889 --> 01:13:43,599
Here's a letter from some woman
I never even heard of!

1185
01:13:44,516 --> 01:13:47,666
Oh Father...
Oh God!

1186
01:13:48,555 --> 01:13:50,022
What is it, Father?

1187
01:13:50,444 --> 01:13:53,111
This woman claims that
she sat on my lap

1188
01:13:53,112 --> 01:13:56,856
and that I didn't like it!
Huh!

1189
01:13:57,857 --> 01:13:58,999
What's that word?

1190
01:14:00,555 --> 01:14:02,444
No, that one down there!

1191
01:14:02,445 --> 01:14:05,555
It looks like "curiosity".

1192
01:14:05,556 --> 01:14:09,745
Oh... "I only opened your letter
as a matter of curiosity."

1193
01:14:09,746 --> 01:14:11,999
Huh!
Yes, go on!

1194
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:14,801
Why, this gets worse and worse!

1195
01:14:15,802 --> 01:14:19,093
It just turns into a lot of
sentimental lovey-dovey mush!

1196
01:14:19,094 --> 01:14:24,593
Ha! If this is someone's idea
of a practical joke...

1197
01:14:25,777 --> 01:14:28,555
What's the matter, Clare?
What's wrong?

1198
01:14:28,556 --> 01:14:30,871
Nothing wrong.
Just a fool letter.

1199
01:14:30,872 --> 01:14:34,059
How are you feeling, Vinnie?
I thought you needed me.

1200
01:14:34,060 --> 01:14:36,000
If you don't,
I'll go back to bed.

1201
01:14:36,001 --> 01:14:39,222
On, no no no! Come sit down
and get some food in you.

1202
01:14:39,223 --> 01:14:41,111
It'll do you good.
Build up your strength.

1203
01:14:41,112 --> 01:14:43,000
Here, here.
Sit down. Sit down.

1204
01:14:43,001 --> 01:14:45,760
Here uh... What's this one's name?
Nora.

1205
01:14:45,761 --> 01:14:48,111
Nora, get Mrs. Day some
bacon and eggs.

1206
01:14:48,112 --> 01:14:51,976
No, Nora. Bring me a cup
of tea up to my room.

1207
01:14:51,977 --> 01:14:52,990
Yes ma'am.

1208
01:14:52,991 --> 01:14:57,116
Oh Vinnie, it's just weak
to give in to an ailment!

1209
01:14:57,117 --> 01:15:00,777
I notice when you have a headache,
you yell and groan and swearing enough.

1210
01:15:00,778 --> 01:15:03,444
Well, that's to prove to the headache
that I am stronger than it is!

1211
01:15:03,445 --> 01:15:05,999
I think I've caught
some kind of germ.

1212
01:15:06,999 --> 01:15:09,555
Some of my friends have
had to send for the doctor.

1213
01:15:09,556 --> 01:15:12,000
A doctor!?
Oh poppycock!

1214
01:15:12,001 --> 01:15:15,998
But Clare dear, when people are ill,
you have to do something!

1215
01:15:15,999 --> 01:15:17,444
Certainly you have
to do something!

1216
01:15:17,445 --> 01:15:19,686
Cheer them up!
That's the way to cure them.

1217
01:15:19,999 --> 01:15:23,111
How would you go about
cheering them up?

1218
01:15:23,112 --> 01:15:29,998
I? Well I'd tell them "Bah!"
[Vinnie crying...]

1219
01:15:30,999 --> 01:15:38,000
Well, what have I done now?
Oh... Oh Clare, hush up!

1220
01:15:42,993 --> 01:15:47,393
Vinnie, I didn't mean
to upset you.

1221
01:15:58,098 --> 01:16:01,732
"Dear Clarence..."

1222
01:16:16,432 --> 01:16:20,535
I... I was just
trying to help you.

1223
01:16:21,111 --> 01:16:23,000
You know,
when you take your bed,

1224
01:16:23,001 --> 01:16:26,805
I have a confounded lonely
time around here.

1225
01:16:26,806 --> 01:16:29,221
So when I see you getting into your
head that you're not feeling well,

1226
01:16:29,222 --> 01:16:31,688
I want to do something about it.

1227
01:16:31,689 --> 01:16:34,000
Just because some of your friends
have given into this,

1228
01:16:34,001 --> 01:16:35,444
is no reason why you should
imagine you're ill.

1229
01:16:35,445 --> 01:16:41,703
Clare, stop! Get out of this
house and go to your office.

1230
01:17:01,921 --> 01:17:03,111
Did you get the job?

1231
01:17:03,112 --> 01:17:05,010
Yes, for both of us!
Look, I've got with me!

1232
01:17:05,011 --> 01:17:06,997
What is it?
Medicine!

1233
01:17:06,998 --> 01:17:10,666
Medicine? You took a job for us
to go out and sell medicine?

1234
01:17:10,667 --> 01:17:13,927
But it's wonderful medicine.
Look what it cures...

1235
01:17:13,928 --> 01:17:17,809
"A sovereign cure for colds,
coughs, catarrh, asthma,

1236
01:17:17,810 --> 01:17:21,087
quinsy, and sore throat,
poor digestion, summer complaint,

1237
01:17:21,088 --> 01:17:24,865
colic, dyspepsia, heartburn,
and shortness of breath,

1238
01:17:24,866 --> 01:17:28,777
lumbago, rheumatism, heart disease,
giddiness, and women's complaints,

1239
01:17:28,778 --> 01:17:33,222
nervous prostration, St. Vitus dance,
jaundice, la grippe, proud flesh,

1240
01:17:33,223 --> 01:17:35,226
pink eye, sea sickness, and pimples."

1241
01:17:35,227 --> 01:17:38,666
It's made from a secret formula
known only to Dr. Bartlett.

1242
01:17:38,667 --> 01:17:41,777
We get 25¢ cents commission on
every bottle we sell!

1243
01:17:41,778 --> 01:17:44,075
And he's giving us the territory
of all Manhattan Island!

1244
01:17:44,076 --> 01:17:47,888
Well, lots of Father's and Mother's
friends have some of those diseases.

1245
01:17:47,889 --> 01:17:49,555
Let's start out by
calling on them.

1246
01:17:49,556 --> 01:17:54,033
Yes. Oh... What if they ask us
if we use it at our house?

1247
01:17:54,034 --> 01:17:57,193
Oh yes, it would be better
if we could say we did.

1248
01:17:59,194 --> 01:18:02,888
Excuse me.
Oh, is that the tea for Mrs. Day?

1249
01:18:02,889 --> 01:18:05,444
Yes.
Oh, I'll take it up to her.

1250
01:18:05,445 --> 01:18:08,186
Thank you.
Right away now, while it's hot.

1251
01:18:09,555 --> 01:18:11,339
What's the matter with Mother?

1252
01:18:11,340 --> 01:18:14,603
I don't know.
She was just complaining.

1253
01:18:14,604 --> 01:18:20,104
Say! It says here it's good
for women's complaints! Here...

1254
01:18:27,445 --> 01:18:31,702
Yes sir, Chesapeake and Ohio: an eighth.
New York Central: three quarters.

1255
01:18:31,703 --> 01:18:34,668
I'd like to see Mr. Day about those
Morris and Essex deposits.

1256
01:18:34,669 --> 01:18:37,646
He's very busy this morning.
You'll have to wait.

1257
01:18:41,647 --> 01:18:42,998
Where's Father?

1258
01:18:42,999 --> 01:18:46,444
Well, Master Whitney,
have you come to pay us a visit?

1259
01:18:46,445 --> 01:18:49,703
Where's Father?
He's busy in his office with a customer.

1260
01:18:49,704 --> 01:18:52,001
Master Whitney!

1261
01:18:54,002 --> 01:18:56,001
Mr. Day, the president
of the firm is...

1262
01:18:56,002 --> 01:18:58,842
Father, you have to
come home right away!

1263
01:18:58,843 --> 01:19:00,111
What's the meaning of this?

1264
01:19:00,112 --> 01:19:01,666
Who sent you down here?
Your mother?

1265
01:19:01,667 --> 01:19:04,999
No sir. Mother's ill.
She's terribly ill.

1266
01:19:05,573 --> 01:19:08,446
Did the doctor sent you for me?
No sir. It was Margaret.

1267
01:19:08,447 --> 01:19:09,222
Margaret?

1268
01:19:09,223 --> 01:19:13,426
Margaret says you're to come home
right away, and no nonsense!

1269
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:17,856
Perkins, go down and stop
the first cab you see.

1270
01:19:17,857 --> 01:19:19,998
A cab, sir??
For you, Mr. Day??

1271
01:19:19,999 --> 01:19:22,926
Yes, I want a cab
and no nonsense!

1272
01:19:22,927 --> 01:19:27,027
I'm sorry, Mr. Hopkins.

1273
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,864
Confound you!
Can't you go any faster?

1274
01:19:35,865 --> 01:19:40,149
All right, sir.
Gid-up!

1275
01:19:43,150 --> 01:19:47,151
Gid-up there!
You hear me! Gid-up!

1276
01:19:59,150 --> 01:20:04,111
Oh doctor. How is Mrs. Day?
She's a pretty sick woman.

1277
01:20:04,153 --> 01:20:07,303
Well what's wrong with her?

1278
01:20:07,304 --> 01:20:08,771
Well, do you know?
Or don't you?

1279
01:20:08,772 --> 01:20:10,748
What did Mrs. Day have
for breakfast this morning?

1280
01:20:10,749 --> 01:20:13,658
Not a thing! I tried to get her
to eat something, but she wouldn't.

1281
01:20:13,659 --> 01:20:16,222
I can't understand it.
Understand what?

1282
01:20:16,223 --> 01:20:19,769
These violent attacks of nausea.
It's almost as though she were poisoned.

1283
01:20:19,770 --> 01:20:22,111
Poisoned?
Let me take your cab.

1284
01:20:22,112 --> 01:20:24,222
I'll try not to be gone more
than 10 to 15 minutes.

1285
01:20:24,223 --> 01:20:26,713
And Mr. Day you are not
to go into her room!

1286
01:20:27,714 --> 01:20:31,555
You'd better get her well!
Right away! Or you'll hear from me!

1287
01:20:31,556 --> 01:20:35,534
Turn west on 27th Street.
Gid-up. Gid-up.

1288
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:46,035
How is Mother?
I don't know?

1289
01:20:46,036 --> 01:20:49,805
Well she better be good and sick or Father
may be mad at me for getting him up here.

1290
01:20:49,806 --> 01:20:51,906
Especially in a cab.

1291
01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:56,896
Has your father come?
Yes, just now!

1292
01:20:56,897 --> 01:21:00,048
Where are you going, Margaret?
I have to go for the minister.

1293
01:21:06,674 --> 01:21:12,111
I guess the minister's coming to baptize
Father so he won't have to go to hell.

1294
01:21:12,112 --> 01:21:15,666
He can't be baptized in a house.
You've got to have water.

1295
01:21:15,667 --> 01:21:18,888
We have lots of water!
Not the right kind.

1296
01:21:23,889 --> 01:21:27,666
Is Mother better, Father?
How can I tell?

1297
01:21:27,667 --> 01:21:30,000
She wouldn't let me
in the room with her.

1298
01:21:30,001 --> 01:21:33,551
These confounded doctors never know
what's the matter with anybody!

1299
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:43,321
Father?
Yes?

1300
01:21:43,322 --> 01:21:46,516
Mother's going to get well,
isn't she?

1301
01:21:46,517 --> 01:21:48,308
Of course she's going to get well.

1302
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:54,475
Father, may we come in?
It's lonesome without Mother.

1303
01:21:54,476 --> 01:21:59,600
Yes, it is, Harlan.
It's lonesome. Come in, boys.

1304
01:22:03,601 --> 01:22:09,212
What have you been doing, Harlan?
Nothing, they won't let me upstairs.

1305
01:22:09,213 --> 01:22:11,446
What about you, Whitney?

1306
01:22:11,447 --> 01:22:14,149
I was supposed to learn
the rest of my catechism.

1307
01:22:14,150 --> 01:22:16,802
Will you hear me, Father?

1308
01:22:18,444 --> 01:22:20,413
Yes Whitney,
I'll hear you.

1309
01:22:22,414 --> 01:22:23,999
Start here.

1310
01:22:25,636 --> 01:22:28,316
"How many parts are there
in a sacrament?"

1311
01:22:28,317 --> 01:22:33,555
Two: the outward visible sign
and the inward spiritual grace.

1312
01:22:33,556 --> 01:22:38,888
"What is the outward visible sign
or form in bap... baptism?"

1313
01:22:38,889 --> 01:22:43,005
Water, wherein the person is
baptized in the name of...

1314
01:22:43,006 --> 01:22:45,956
You haven't been baptized,
have you, Father?

1315
01:22:45,957 --> 01:22:48,998
Whitney, what is the
outward visible sign?

1316
01:22:48,999 --> 01:22:55,415
Water, wherein the person...
wherein the person...

1317
01:22:55,416 --> 01:22:58,561
You don't know it well enough, Whitney.
You'd better go and study it some more.

1318
01:22:58,562 --> 01:23:00,555
Do you want me to
read to you, Harlan?

1319
01:23:00,556 --> 01:23:03,491
Father, are they going to
put you into hell?

1320
01:23:03,492 --> 01:23:06,226
Whitney, take Harlan with you.

1321
01:25:02,401 --> 01:25:08,046
What's the world coming to?
Everybody's sending for doctors.

1322
01:25:08,047 --> 01:25:12,275
Doctors don't do you any good.
Only make you feel worse.

1323
01:25:12,276 --> 01:25:18,422
All poppycock!
[bell rining]

1324
01:25:18,423 --> 01:25:22,424
Who's rining that bell?
Stop that noise!

1325
01:25:22,427 --> 01:25:27,428
Stop it, I say! What
idiot's ringing that bell?

1326
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,422
Mr. Day,
we must all be quiet.

1327
01:25:32,423 --> 01:25:34,645
Mrs.Day's been ill.
I know she's ill.

1328
01:25:34,646 --> 01:25:36,206
Go up and see if
she needs anything.

1329
01:25:36,207 --> 01:25:39,290
What are you doing out of house?
Sent for the minister.

1330
01:25:39,291 --> 01:25:40,333
The minister?

1331
01:25:40,334 --> 01:25:43,162
He'll be right in.
He's paying off the cab.

1332
01:25:46,674 --> 01:25:53,555
I was deeply shocked to learn the
serious nature of Mrs. Day's illness.

1333
01:25:53,556 --> 01:25:55,389
Will you take me up to her?

1334
01:25:55,390 --> 01:25:57,332
She's resting now.
She can't be disturbed.

1335
01:25:57,333 --> 01:25:59,423
The doctor will be
back in a minute.

1336
01:26:00,424 --> 01:26:03,111
Mrs. Day has been a tower
of strength in the parish.

1337
01:26:03,112 --> 01:26:05,555
Everyone liked her so much.

1338
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:08,431
Yes, she was a fine woman.

1339
01:26:08,432 --> 01:26:11,802
I wish to heaven you wouldn't talk
about Mrs. Day as if she were dead!

1340
01:26:16,222 --> 01:26:18,952
Is the doctor back yet?
No, does she need him?

1341
01:26:18,953 --> 01:26:20,828
Well, she's kind of restless.

1342
01:26:20,829 --> 01:26:22,911
She's talking in her sleep
and twisting and turning.

1343
01:26:22,912 --> 01:26:26,812
[doorbell]

1344
01:26:35,210 --> 01:26:38,444
Well doctor, it seems to me
that was a pretty long 10 minutes!

1345
01:26:38,445 --> 01:26:41,000
See here, Mr. Day.
if I'm to handle this case...

1346
01:26:41,001 --> 01:26:43,120
How can you handle it
if you're out of the house?

1347
01:26:43,121 --> 01:26:45,134
Who is this?
It's Dr. Somers.

1348
01:26:45,135 --> 01:26:46,368
How do you do?

1349
01:26:46,369 --> 01:26:49,266
I felt that Mrs. Day's condition
warranted my getting Dr. Somers here

1350
01:26:49,267 --> 01:26:53,655
as soon as possible for consultation.
I hope that meets with your approval?

1351
01:26:54,163 --> 01:26:59,000
Why yes, of course.
Anything that can be done.

1352
01:26:59,001 --> 01:27:02,409
Upstairs, doctor.
Pardon me.

1353
01:27:07,295 --> 01:27:10,111
Mrs. Day is in good hands
now, Mr. Day.

1354
01:27:10,112 --> 01:27:12,773
There's nothing you and I can do
at the moment to help.

1355
01:27:15,999 --> 01:27:19,000
Dr. Lloyd?
Yes?

1356
01:27:19,001 --> 01:27:21,489
There's something that's
troubling Mrs. Day's mind.

1357
01:27:21,490 --> 01:27:25,000
Oh?
I think you know what I refer to.

1358
01:27:25,001 --> 01:27:28,888
Yes. You mean the fact that
you've never been baptized.

1359
01:27:28,889 --> 01:27:33,111
Yes, I gathered that you knew about it
from your sermon last Sunday.

1360
01:27:33,123 --> 01:27:35,602
But let's not get angry.

1361
01:27:35,603 --> 01:27:38,719
I think something had
better be done about it.

1362
01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:43,365
Yes, Mr. Day?
When the doctors get through up there,

1363
01:27:43,366 --> 01:27:45,998
I want you to talk to Mrs. Day.
I want you to tell her something.

1364
01:27:45,999 --> 01:27:48,540
Well, I'd be glad to!
You're just the man to do it.

1365
01:27:48,541 --> 01:27:50,623
She shouldn't be upset about this.

1366
01:27:50,624 --> 01:27:52,916
Now I want you to tell her
that my being baptized

1367
01:27:52,917 --> 01:27:55,859
would just be a lot
of confounded nonsense.

1368
01:27:56,222 --> 01:27:57,527
But Mr. Day...

1369
01:27:57,528 --> 01:28:00,345
Oh, she'll take your word
on a thing like that.

1370
01:28:00,346 --> 01:28:02,984
And we both must do everything
we can to help her now.

1371
01:28:02,985 --> 01:28:05,450
But the solution is so simple.

1372
01:28:05,451 --> 01:28:08,228
It would take only your
consent to be baptized.

1373
01:28:09,229 --> 01:28:11,318
That's out of the question!

1374
01:28:11,319 --> 01:28:15,888
And I'm surprised that a grown man
like you would suggest such a thing!

1375
01:28:24,347 --> 01:28:27,980
Well doctor, how is she?
What have you decided?

1376
01:28:27,999 --> 01:28:30,937
Is there a room we could
use for our consultation?

1377
01:28:30,938 --> 01:28:34,722
Oh yes, my library.
Doctor...

1378
01:28:34,723 --> 01:28:37,000
Dr. Somers,
this isn't serious is it?

1379
01:28:37,001 --> 01:28:39,965
After we've had our consultation,
we'll talk to you, Mr. Day.

1380
01:28:39,966 --> 01:28:42,118
But surely...
Rest assured,

1381
01:28:42,119 --> 01:28:45,307
Dr. Somers will do everything
that is humanly possible.

1382
01:28:45,390 --> 01:28:48,023
We'll try not to be long.

1383
01:29:04,634 --> 01:29:11,598
Tell me, this Dr. -uh- Somers,
he's very highly thought of, isn't he?

1384
01:29:11,599 --> 01:29:13,000
Oh yes.

1385
01:29:13,001 --> 01:29:17,362
But if Vinnie is seriously...
If anyone could help her, he could.

1386
01:29:17,363 --> 01:29:20,555
Don't you think?
Very fine physician.

1387
01:29:21,999 --> 01:29:25,998
But there is a greater help,
ever-present in the hour of need.

1388
01:29:25,999 --> 01:29:29,988
Let us turn to him,
in prayer.

1389
01:29:30,989 --> 01:29:34,398
Let us kneel and pray.

1390
01:29:39,399 --> 01:29:41,774
Let us kneel and pray.

1391
01:29:50,359 --> 01:29:53,211
Oh Lord, look down
from heaven.

1392
01:29:53,212 --> 01:29:57,555
Behold, visit, and relieve
this thy servant

1393
01:29:57,556 --> 01:30:00,052
who is grieved
with sickness.

1394
01:30:00,053 --> 01:30:02,444
Have mercy on her,
oh Lord.

1395
01:30:02,445 --> 01:30:05,385
Have mercy on
this miserable sinner.

1396
01:30:05,386 --> 01:30:08,000
Forgive her, and
extend thy accustomed...

1397
01:30:08,001 --> 01:30:10,261
She's not a miserable sinner,
and you know it!

1398
01:30:10,262 --> 01:30:13,666
Oh God! You know Vinnie
is not a miserable sinner!

1399
01:30:13,667 --> 01:30:14,844
She's a fine woman!

1400
01:30:14,845 --> 01:30:16,844
She shouldn't be
made to suffer!

1401
01:30:16,845 --> 01:30:18,997
It's got to stop, I tell you!
It's got to stop!

1402
01:30:18,998 --> 01:30:22,123
Have mercy, I say!
Have mercy, I tell you!

1403
01:30:22,124 --> 01:30:24,555
What's the matter, Clare?
What's wrong?

1404
01:30:24,556 --> 01:30:27,507
Vinnie! Vinnie, what are you
doing down here?

1405
01:30:27,508 --> 01:30:30,109
You shouldn't be out of bed!
You get right back upstairs!

1406
01:30:30,110 --> 01:30:32,991
I heard you call.
Do you need me?

1407
01:30:32,992 --> 01:30:35,977
Vinnie, I know now
how much I need you.

1408
01:30:35,978 --> 01:30:39,666
Get well, Vinnie. I'll be baptized.
I promise. I'll be baptized.

1409
01:30:39,667 --> 01:30:41,998
You will?
I'll do anything.

1410
01:30:41,999 --> 01:30:45,444
Oh Clare!
We'll go to Europe, just we two.

1411
01:30:45,445 --> 01:30:50,402
You won't have to worry about the children
or the household accounts or... Vinnie!

1412
01:30:53,625 --> 01:30:57,159
Don't worry, Mr. Day.
She'll be all right now.

1413
01:30:57,160 --> 01:30:59,555
Bless you for what you've done!
What did I do?

1414
01:30:59,556 --> 01:31:01,666
You promised
to be baptized.

1415
01:31:01,667 --> 01:31:04,827
I did?!
Oh God!

1416
01:31:42,828 --> 01:31:46,000
Isn't it drafty here, Mother?
Shall I get your coat, Mother?

1417
01:31:46,001 --> 01:31:49,222
No thank you.
I'm quite comfortable, thank you.

1418
01:31:49,223 --> 01:31:52,111
Come on now. Let's stay together.
Harlan, don't you get lost again.

1419
01:31:52,112 --> 01:31:55,231
Aren't the hats lovely this year?

1420
01:31:55,232 --> 01:31:57,766
Ostrich feathers!

1421
01:31:57,767 --> 01:32:00,000
You wouldn't wear that hat,
would you, Mother?

1422
01:32:00,001 --> 01:32:04,773
Well, I think that's very pretty.
I think they're all pretty.

1423
01:32:04,774 --> 01:32:07,961
Well, I do need some
pink silk thread.

1424
01:32:10,962 --> 01:32:15,461
Oh, isn't this applique beautiful?
Just arrived from Paris, madam.

1425
01:32:15,462 --> 01:32:18,169
It's charming.
What are you looking for, Mother?

1426
01:32:18,170 --> 01:32:20,220
Oh, I'm just shopping.

1427
01:32:22,288 --> 01:32:25,788
I think I just take a plain one.
But this is the very latest.

1428
01:32:25,789 --> 01:32:28,274
We've only had them
in a few days.

1429
01:32:28,275 --> 01:32:29,825
Remember, Mother,
this is your first day out.

1430
01:32:29,826 --> 01:32:31,000
You mustn't get too tired.

1431
01:32:31,001 --> 01:32:33,555
No, I'm saving myself, dear.
I have to.

1432
01:32:33,556 --> 01:32:35,275
Cousin Cora's coming tomorrow.

1433
01:32:35,276 --> 01:32:37,275
She is?
Does Father know about it?

1434
01:32:37,276 --> 01:32:39,011
Not yet.
Is Mary coming too?

1435
01:32:39,012 --> 01:32:41,032
Yes, dear.
Harlan, don't touch things.

1436
01:32:41,033 --> 01:32:44,824
I'll bet you knew it.
No, honest I didn't, not tomorrow.

1437
01:32:44,825 --> 01:32:48,455
Aren't the sleeves a little long?
It fits right

1438
01:32:48,456 --> 01:32:50,755
across the shoulders.
Now, about the sleeves...

1439
01:32:50,756 --> 01:32:54,206
Do we have any more of this material?
Yes, we do. Thank you.

1440
01:32:57,000 --> 01:33:00,706
This one is genuine
imitation Dresden,

1441
01:33:00,999 --> 01:33:03,998
the original design
by Duriet.

1442
01:33:03,999 --> 01:33:06,222
John, isn't this
the darlingest thing?

1443
01:33:06,223 --> 01:33:08,005
It's exactly what
I've always wanted.

1444
01:33:08,006 --> 01:33:09,666
How much is this
lovely pug dog?

1445
01:33:09,667 --> 01:33:13,222
$15, ma'am.
$15! Gee whiz, Mother.

1446
01:33:13,223 --> 01:33:16,000
We could buy a real
live bloodhound for $5.

1447
01:33:16,001 --> 01:33:18,888
Oh, isn't he perfectly adorable?

1448
01:33:19,555 --> 01:33:23,000
Oh, I shouldn't.
I know I shouldn't.

1449
01:33:23,001 --> 01:33:28,000
Mrs. Day!
Oh, Mrs. Whitehead.

1450
01:33:28,001 --> 01:33:29,874
How nice to see you.
Are you quite recovered?

1451
01:33:29,875 --> 01:33:31,998
Almost.
This is my first day out.

1452
01:33:31,999 --> 01:33:34,111
We've missed you at the church.
You remember Mr. Morley.

1453
01:33:34,112 --> 01:33:35,555
How do you do, Mrs. Day?
How do you do?

1454
01:33:35,556 --> 01:33:38,111
Mr. Morley preached the
Sunday Dr. Lloyd was ill.

1455
01:33:38,112 --> 01:33:42,848
Oh yes! I can't tell you
how much I enjoyed your sermon.

1456
01:33:42,849 --> 01:33:44,555
Even my husband
enjoyed your sermon.

1457
01:33:44,556 --> 01:33:47,028
We've just come from the board
meeting of the foreign missions.

1458
01:33:47,029 --> 01:33:48,555
I'm taking Mr. Morley
home to lunch.

1459
01:33:48,556 --> 01:33:51,980
I had to drop in here to pick up
a purchase. I won't be a minute.

1460
01:33:52,792 --> 01:33:54,555
Is your parish in the city?

1461
01:33:54,556 --> 01:33:57,208
Yes, it's on the outskirts.
My church is in Audubon Park.

1462
01:33:57,209 --> 01:33:58,888
Oh, way up there.

1463
01:33:58,889 --> 01:34:00,998
Oh, are you acquainted
in Audubon Park?

1464
01:34:00,999 --> 01:34:03,523
No, I don't believe
we know a soul there.

1465
01:34:07,522 --> 01:34:11,666
Mr. Morley,
would this be possible?

1466
01:34:11,667 --> 01:34:13,777
My husband, Mr. Day...

1467
01:34:13,778 --> 01:34:16,918
If we lower the collar,
it'll be a very fine fit.

1468
01:34:16,919 --> 01:34:19,222
You won't find a better suit
of clothes in the city for $15.

1469
01:34:19,223 --> 01:34:21,888
Oh, it's not the price.
It's the money.

1470
01:34:22,999 --> 01:34:25,349
Thank you for holding it for me.
You're welcome.

1471
01:34:26,739 --> 01:34:29,425
Goodbye, Mrs. Day.
I hope we meet again soon.

1472
01:34:29,426 --> 01:34:32,000
Goodbye. It was very pleasant
meeting you again.

1473
01:34:32,001 --> 01:34:33,555
I think it was
divine providence.

1474
01:34:33,556 --> 01:34:36,000
I shall be delighted
to be of service.

1475
01:34:36,001 --> 01:34:37,572
Goodbye, Mr. Morley.
Goodbye.

1476
01:34:38,573 --> 01:34:39,673
May I work it?

1477
01:34:39,674 --> 01:34:44,371
Oh no. It's against the rules.
Whee...

1478
01:34:59,372 --> 01:35:01,607
Hello.

1479
01:35:02,608 --> 01:35:05,607
What did you bring home
more medicine for?

1480
01:35:05,608 --> 01:35:07,111
Dr. Bartlett paid us off,
didn't he?

1481
01:35:07,112 --> 01:35:10,094
Oh yes.
Oh jiminy, you scared me.

1482
01:35:10,095 --> 01:35:12,666
I've got to take $15
right down to McCreery's.

1483
01:35:12,667 --> 01:35:14,000
I bought a suit there
this morning and

1484
01:35:14,001 --> 01:35:16,407
I said I'd have the
money this afternoon.

1485
01:35:16,408 --> 01:35:18,111
Gee, that's too bad.
What's too bad?

1486
01:35:18,112 --> 01:35:20,444
Well...
Well, you see, Clarence...

1487
01:35:20,445 --> 01:35:23,444
What?
Dr. Bartlett paid us off in medicine.

1488
01:35:23,445 --> 01:35:24,888
Oh god!

1489
01:35:24,889 --> 01:35:27,333
Well, he thanked us too
for our services to mankind.

1490
01:35:27,334 --> 01:35:29,199
But my suit!
I've got to have it tomorrow!

1491
01:35:29,200 --> 01:35:30,777
And besides,
they're making the alterations.

1492
01:35:30,778 --> 01:35:32,222
I've got to have $15!

1493
01:35:32,223 --> 01:35:34,859
Maybe you could offer them
15 bottles of medicine.

1494
01:35:34,860 --> 01:35:37,870
Oh, they wouldn't take it.
McCreery's don't sell medicine!

1495
01:35:38,555 --> 01:35:40,423
Father!

1496
01:35:41,424 --> 01:35:43,888
Vinnie!
I'm home!

1497
01:35:43,889 --> 01:35:47,444
Good afternoon, sir.
How's your mother, Clarence?

1498
01:35:47,445 --> 01:35:49,222
Oh, the ride this morning
did her a lot of good.

1499
01:35:49,223 --> 01:35:51,222
She'll be well enough to go
to church with us next Sunday.

1500
01:35:51,223 --> 01:35:52,059
Ah, fine!

1501
01:35:52,060 --> 01:35:56,583
Father, have you noticed I haven't
been kneeling down in church lately?

1502
01:35:56,584 --> 01:35:57,517
Don't let your mother catch you at it.

1503
01:35:57,518 --> 01:35:59,916
Then, I have to have a new
suit of clothes right away.

1504
01:35:59,917 --> 01:36:01,000
That doesn't make sense.

1505
01:36:01,001 --> 01:36:03,222
I can't do anything in your
clothes that you wouldn't do!

1506
01:36:03,223 --> 01:36:05,665
Well, if my old clothes
make you behave yourself,

1507
01:36:05,666 --> 01:36:06,998
I don't think you ought
to wear anything else!

1508
01:36:06,999 --> 01:36:09,542
Oh no! You're you, and I'm me!
I'm want to be myself!

1509
01:36:09,543 --> 01:36:12,553
I mean, suppose I should want to
kneel down in front of a girl.

1510
01:36:12,554 --> 01:36:14,646
Why in heaven's name should you
want to do a thing like that?

1511
01:36:14,647 --> 01:36:16,930
Well, I've got to propose
to a girl sometime.

1512
01:36:16,931 --> 01:36:18,437
Clarence!
Oh, not right away.

1513
01:36:18,438 --> 01:36:20,608
But for $15, I can
get a good suit of clothes.

1514
01:36:20,609 --> 01:36:23,555
Clarence, you're beginning
to talk as crazy as your mo...

1515
01:36:23,556 --> 01:36:26,514
...Hello, Vinnie.
You're feeling better today, huh?

1516
01:36:27,800 --> 01:36:29,600
Much better.
Thank you, Clare.

1517
01:36:29,601 --> 01:36:32,522
You don't have to hurry home
from the office every day like this.

1518
01:36:32,523 --> 01:36:34,000
Uh, with business the way it is,

1519
01:36:34,001 --> 01:36:35,999
there's no use going
to the office at all.

1520
01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:38,536
Yes, you do look better, Vinnie.
What did you do today?

1521
01:36:38,537 --> 01:36:41,555
Well, I got a carriage
and took the boys for a ride.

1522
01:36:41,556 --> 01:36:43,298
And we stopped in at McCreery's.

1523
01:36:44,300 --> 01:36:48,112
And, oh Clare, I have the
most wonderful news for you.

1524
01:36:48,113 --> 01:36:52,279
Who do you think I met?
Mr. Morley.

1525
01:36:52,280 --> 01:36:53,980
Morley?
Never heard of him?

1526
01:36:53,981 --> 01:36:57,904
Remember, that nice young minister who
substituted for Dr. Lloyd one Sunday.

1527
01:36:57,905 --> 01:37:01,238
Oh yes.
Bright young fellow.

1528
01:37:01,239 --> 01:37:03,998
Preached a good sensible sermon,
short one too.

1529
01:37:03,999 --> 01:37:05,794
Ought to be more
ministers like him.

1530
01:37:05,795 --> 01:37:08,345
Well Clare, his parish
is in Audubon Park.

1531
01:37:08,346 --> 01:37:10,038
You know,
way up above Harlem.

1532
01:37:10,039 --> 01:37:13,629
Nobody knows you up there.
You'll be perfectly safe.

1533
01:37:13,630 --> 01:37:16,798
Safe? Vinnie, what the devil
are you talking about?

1534
01:37:16,799 --> 01:37:18,850
I've gone all over
everything with Mr. Morley.

1535
01:37:18,851 --> 01:37:20,666
And he's agreed
to baptize you.

1536
01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:22,998
Oh, he has!

1537
01:37:22,999 --> 01:37:25,935
Hehe, the young whippersnapper!
Very nice of him.

1538
01:37:25,936 --> 01:37:27,701
We can go up there any morning.

1539
01:37:27,702 --> 01:37:29,666
We don't even have
to make an appointment.

1540
01:37:29,667 --> 01:37:32,072
Who said I was going
to be baptized at all?

1541
01:37:32,073 --> 01:37:36,358
Why Clare! You did!
Now Vinnie...

1542
01:37:36,359 --> 01:37:39,754
You gave me your promise,
your sacred promise!

1543
01:37:39,755 --> 01:37:42,444
You said: I'll be baptized.
I promise I'll be baptized.

1544
01:37:42,445 --> 01:37:44,000
Well, what if I did?

1545
01:37:44,001 --> 01:37:47,677
Clare! Aren't you a
man of your word?

1546
01:37:48,678 --> 01:37:51,812
Vinnie, we all thought
you were dying!

1547
01:37:51,813 --> 01:37:54,573
So naturally, I said that
to cheer you up!

1548
01:37:54,574 --> 01:37:57,109
As a matter of fact, the doctor
told me that's what cured you!

1549
01:37:57,110 --> 01:38:00,888
So it seems to me pretty ungrateful of
you to press this matter any further.

1550
01:38:00,889 --> 01:38:03,789
My being well has
nothing to do with it.

1551
01:38:03,790 --> 01:38:07,190
You gave me your word!
You gave the Lord your word!

1552
01:38:07,191 --> 01:38:09,555
And you're going to march
yourself up to Mr. Morley's church

1553
01:38:09,556 --> 01:38:12,036
some morning before you go to
the office and be christened!

1554
01:38:12,037 --> 01:38:14,991
If you think for one minute I'm...
What in the name of heaven is that?

1555
01:38:14,992 --> 01:38:16,998
If you think I'm going
to let you add the sin

1556
01:38:16,999 --> 01:38:18,777
of breaking your
solemn and sacred promise...

1557
01:38:18,778 --> 01:38:21,777
I demand to know what
that repulsive object is?

1558
01:38:21,778 --> 01:38:24,666
It's perfectly plain what it is.
It's a pug dog.

1559
01:38:24,667 --> 01:38:27,888
What is it going in this house?
I wanted it and I bought it.

1560
01:38:27,889 --> 01:38:32,645
You spent good money for that?
Clare don't try to change the subject.

1561
01:38:32,666 --> 01:38:35,097
How much did you pay
for that atrocity?

1562
01:38:35,098 --> 01:38:37,888
I didn't pay anything for it.
I charged it.

1563
01:38:37,889 --> 01:38:39,666
Charged it!
I might have known!

1564
01:38:39,667 --> 01:38:41,402
How much was it?
$15.

1565
01:38:41,403 --> 01:38:44,777
$15?
For that eyesore?

1566
01:38:44,778 --> 01:38:47,998
Don't you call this lovely
work of art an eyesore!

1567
01:38:47,999 --> 01:38:50,312
It will look beautiful
sitting on a red cushion

1568
01:38:50,313 --> 01:38:52,466
by the fireplace
in the living room.

1569
01:38:52,467 --> 01:38:54,236
If that sits in the living room,
I won't!

1570
01:38:54,237 --> 01:38:57,216
Furthermore, I don't even want it
in the same house with me!

1571
01:38:57,217 --> 01:38:58,666
Get it out of here!

1572
01:38:58,667 --> 01:39:02,779
Clare, you're not going
to get out of this room

1573
01:39:02,780 --> 01:39:04,897
until you set
a date for your baptism!

1574
01:39:04,898 --> 01:39:06,146
I'll tell you one thing.

1575
01:39:06,147 --> 01:39:10,997
I'll never be baptized as long as that
hideous monstrosity is in this house!

1576
01:39:12,932 --> 01:39:16,555
All right!
All right!

1577
01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:18,832
Clarence...

1578
01:39:21,833 --> 01:39:24,222
That pug dog goes
back this afternoon

1579
01:39:24,223 --> 01:39:25,998
and he's chrisrened
first in the morning!

1580
01:39:25,999 --> 01:39:27,473
You heard him,
didn't you, Clarence?

1581
01:39:27,474 --> 01:39:29,555
You heard him say that
he'd be baptized

1582
01:39:29,556 --> 01:39:31,726
as soon as I got this pug dog
out of the house.

1583
01:39:31,727 --> 01:39:33,888
You hurry right back
to McCreery's with it

1584
01:39:33,889 --> 01:39:36,444
and be sure they
credit us with $15.

1585
01:39:36,445 --> 01:39:38,419
Oh Mother, while we
were at McCreery's,

1586
01:39:38,420 --> 01:39:40,333
I happened to see a suit
I'd like very much.

1587
01:39:40,334 --> 01:39:41,553
And the suit was only $15.

1588
01:39:41,554 --> 01:39:44,222
Well Clarence, I'm afraid
your suit will have to wait

1589
01:39:44,223 --> 01:39:46,000
until after I
get your father christened.

1590
01:39:46,001 --> 01:39:48,919
Well no, I meant that since the suit
cost just the same as the pug dog,

1591
01:39:48,920 --> 01:39:50,933
If I exchanged the
pug dog for the suit...

1592
01:39:51,934 --> 01:39:56,111
Why yes! Then the suit wouldn't
cost your father anything!

1593
01:39:56,114 --> 01:40:00,205
Why, how bright of you, Clarence,
to think of that!

1594
01:40:00,206 --> 01:40:01,975
I'd better start right away
before McCreery's closes.

1595
01:40:01,976 --> 01:40:03,998
Yes.
Now let's see.

1596
01:40:03,999 --> 01:40:07,824
If we're going to take your father
all the way to Audubon Park...

1597
01:40:07,825 --> 01:40:10,672
Clarence, on your way back,
you stop at the livery stable

1598
01:40:10,673 --> 01:40:13,444
and tell them to have a cab here
at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.

1599
01:40:13,445 --> 01:40:15,111
Mother! A cab!
Do you think you ought to?

1600
01:40:15,112 --> 01:40:17,000
We can't walk all
the way to Audubon Park!

1601
01:40:17,001 --> 01:40:18,267
But you know what
a cab does to Father.

1602
01:40:18,268 --> 01:40:21,004
This is a very important occasion.
All right.

1603
01:40:21,005 --> 01:40:23,998
Get one of their best cabs,
the kind they use at funerals.

1604
01:40:23,999 --> 01:40:26,959
But those cost $2 an hour!
And if Father gets mad...

1605
01:40:26,960 --> 01:40:29,650
Well, if your father starts to argue
in the morning, you remember...

1606
01:40:29,651 --> 01:40:31,401
Oh he agreed to it.
We both heard him.

1607
01:40:36,412 --> 01:40:41,076
I hope you notice,
Clarence is returning the pug dog.

1608
01:40:41,077 --> 01:40:43,018
Well, that's a sign you're
getting your faculties back!

1609
01:40:43,019 --> 01:40:48,952
Don't dawdle, Clarence.

1610
01:40:56,687 --> 01:41:00,277
♪ Come to me,
sweet Marie. ♪

1611
01:41:00,278 --> 01:41:04,222
♪ Not because your face is fair,
don't you see. ♪

1612
01:41:04,223 --> 01:41:06,498

you singing again.

1613
01:41:06,499 --> 01:41:13,029

1614

1615
01:41:20,032 --> 01:41:23,222
Oh, uh - on the way uptown,
I stopped in at

1616
01:41:23,223 --> 01:41:26,444
Tiffany's and bought you
a little something.

1617
01:41:26,445 --> 01:41:28,112
Thought you might like it.

1618
01:41:28,113 --> 01:41:33,555
Clare!
What a beautiful ring!

1619
01:41:33,556 --> 01:41:37,000
Well, I'm glad
it pleases you.

1620
01:41:37,001 --> 01:41:39,869
Oh Clare!
How sweet of you!

1621
01:41:39,870 --> 01:41:43,403
I don't know how
to thank you!

1622
01:41:43,404 --> 01:41:45,444
Well, it's thanks
enough for me

1623
01:41:45,445 --> 01:41:47,000
just to have you
up and around again.

1624
01:41:47,001 --> 01:41:49,998
You know when you're ill, Vinnie,
this house is like a tomb!

1625
01:41:49,999 --> 01:41:52,515
There's no excitement.

1626
01:41:52,516 --> 01:41:54,777
That's the loveliest ring
you ever bought me.

1627
01:41:54,778 --> 01:41:59,022
Now that I have this, you
needn't buy me any more rings.

1628
01:41:59,023 --> 01:42:01,203
Well, if you don't want any more.

1629
01:42:01,204 --> 01:42:03,794
What I'd really like now
is a nice diamond necklace.

1630
01:42:05,803 --> 01:42:09,863
Vinnie, do you know how much
a diamond necklace costs?

1631
01:42:09,864 --> 01:42:10,666
Yes, I know, Clare.

1632
01:42:10,667 --> 01:42:12,222
But don't you see,
your getting me this

1633
01:42:12,223 --> 01:42:14,113
shows I mean a little
something to you.

1634
01:42:14,114 --> 01:42:16,301
Now a diamond necklace...
Good heaven!

1635
01:42:16,302 --> 01:42:18,777
If you don't know by this
time how I feel about you...

1636
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:21,111
Well we've been married
for 20 years!

1637
01:42:21,112 --> 01:42:23,357
And I've loved you
every minute of it!

1638
01:42:24,358 --> 01:42:26,025
What did you say, Clare?

1639
01:42:26,026 --> 01:42:28,444
I said we've been
married for 20 years

1640
01:42:28,445 --> 01:42:30,767
and I've loved you
every minute of it.

1641
01:42:30,768 --> 01:42:33,238
But if I have to buy out jewelry
stores to prove it...

1642
01:42:33,239 --> 01:42:35,555
If I haven't shown it to you
in my words and actions...

1643
01:42:35,556 --> 01:42:37,566
Well, I might as well...

1644
01:42:38,567 --> 01:42:41,531
Well, what have I done now?

1645
01:42:41,532 --> 01:42:44,531
It's all right, Clare.

1646
01:42:44,532 --> 01:42:48,666
I'm just so happy.
Happy?

1647
01:42:50,150 --> 01:42:52,553
You said you loved me.

1648
01:42:52,554 --> 01:42:56,636
And this beautiful ring, that's
something else I didn't expect.

1649
01:42:56,637 --> 01:43:00,666
Oh Clare.
I love surprises.

1650
01:43:00,667 --> 01:43:06,000
That's another thing I've never
understood about you, Vinnie.

1651
01:43:06,001 --> 01:43:08,000
Now I like to know
what to expect,

1652
01:43:08,001 --> 01:43:10,316
Then I'm prepared to meet it.
Yes, I know, Clare.

1653
01:43:10,317 --> 01:43:13,555
But life would be pretty dull
if we always knew what was coming.

1654
01:43:13,556 --> 01:43:15,888
Well, it's certainly
not dull around here!

1655
01:43:15,889 --> 01:43:17,998
In this house,
you never know

1656
01:43:17,999 --> 01:43:20,318
what's going to hit you
tomorrow! Hehehe.

01:44:27,245 --> 01:44:32,911
Well then, Harlan,
the very...

1668
01:44:32,912 --> 01:44:34,148
Who are you?
What's your name?

1669
01:44:34,149 --> 01:44:37,000
Margaret, sir.
Can't be Margaret.

1670
01:44:37,001 --> 01:44:38,703
We've got one Margaret
in the house.

1671
01:44:38,704 --> 01:44:41,444
At home,
they call me Maggie, sir.

1672
01:44:41,445 --> 01:44:43,058
All right, Maggie.

1673
01:44:43,059 --> 01:44:46,058
If her name's Margaret,
that's a good sign.

1674
01:44:46,059 --> 01:44:49,176
Maybe she'll stay a while.
Hehehe...

1675
01:44:49,177 --> 01:44:50,555
Do you know, boys,
your mother used

1676
01:44:50,556 --> 01:44:53,516
to be just the same about
cooks as she is about maids.

1677
01:44:53,517 --> 01:44:55,670
Never could keep them
for some reason.

1678
01:44:55,671 --> 01:45:00,426
Well, one day about...uh
14 years ago...

1679
01:45:00,427 --> 01:45:02,718
Yes, it was right after
you were born, John.

1680
01:45:02,719 --> 01:45:06,406
My, you were a homely baby!
Hehehe...

1681
01:45:12,407 --> 01:45:14,408
Thank you, Margaret.

1682
01:45:15,407 --> 01:45:19,067
Good morning, boys.
Good morning, Mother.

1683
01:45:19,068 --> 01:45:21,067
Good morning, Clare.
Morning, Vinnie.

1684
01:45:21,068 --> 01:45:23,778
Why, you look as though
you were dressed for a wedding.

1685
01:45:23,915 --> 01:45:25,768
Do I, dear?
Yes.

1686
01:45:25,769 --> 01:45:27,859
Have a good night?
Yes, thank you, Clare.

1687
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:32,893
Sit down, Vinnie.
Sit down, boys.

1688
01:45:34,111 --> 01:45:35,895
Oh, thank you, Clarence.

1689
01:45:36,222 --> 01:45:39,706
Well, seems to me everyone's
all dressed up this morning.

1690
01:45:39,707 --> 01:45:42,519
What's on the program
for this fine day?

1691
01:45:43,000 --> 01:45:46,000
Well, this afternoon,
May Lewis' mother

1692
01:45:46,001 --> 01:45:48,555
is giving a party for everyone
in May's dancing class.

1693
01:45:48,556 --> 01:45:51,436
Harlan's going to that.
I don't want to go, Mama.

1694
01:45:51,437 --> 01:45:55,222
Harlan! Don't you want to go to a
party and get ice cream and cake?

1695
01:45:55,223 --> 01:46:00,204
May Lewis always tries to kiss me!
hehehe...

1696
01:46:00,205 --> 01:46:01,222
When you get a little older,

1697
01:46:01,223 --> 01:46:03,513
you won't object to girls
wanting to kiss you...

1698
01:46:03,666 --> 01:46:08,548
Will he, Clarence?
hehehe

1699
01:46:10,111 --> 01:46:12,782
This is for you, Mr. Day.
Where shall I put it?

1700
01:46:12,783 --> 01:46:15,000
Oh, that's for me, I think.
Take it upstairs, Maggie.

1701
01:46:15,001 --> 01:46:17,411
Wait a minute, Maggie.
Bring it here. Let me see it.

1702
01:46:17,423 --> 01:46:19,666
See! It's for me, Father:
Clarence Day Jr.

1703
01:46:19,667 --> 01:46:22,111
Let me look.
Well, that's from McCreery's.

1704
01:46:22,112 --> 01:46:24,000
It's marked: Charge!
What is it?

1705
01:46:24,001 --> 01:46:26,333
Clare, it's all right.
It's nothing for you to worry about.

1706
01:46:26,334 --> 01:46:28,771
Well, at least I think I should know
what's being charged to me.

1707
01:46:28,772 --> 01:46:30,889
What is it?
Clare, stop your fussing.

1708
01:46:30,890 --> 01:46:32,666
It's a new suit of
clothes for Clarence

1709
01:46:32,667 --> 01:46:35,188
and it isn't costing
you a penny.

1710
01:46:36,189 --> 01:46:40,222
It's marked: Charge $15.
It's costing me $15!

1711
01:46:40,223 --> 01:46:43,111
And I told Clarence...
Clare, can't you take my word?

1712
01:46:43,112 --> 01:46:45,154
It isn't costing you a penny!

1713
01:46:45,155 --> 01:46:47,931
I'd like to have you
explain why it isn't!

1714
01:46:47,932 --> 01:46:52,556
Because Clarence took the pug dog back
and got the suit instead!

1715
01:46:52,557 --> 01:46:55,027
Of course, and they'll
charge me $15 for the suit.

1716
01:46:55,028 --> 01:46:56,279
Nonsense, Clare.

1717
01:46:56,280 --> 01:46:58,431
We gave them the pug dog for
the suit. Don't you see?

1718
01:46:58,432 --> 01:47:00,998
Then they'll charge me $15
for the pug dog.

1719
01:47:00,999 --> 01:47:04,119
But Clare, they can't!
We haven't got the pug dog!

1720
01:47:04,120 --> 01:47:12,000
We sent that back!
Well... Hmm... But...

1721
01:47:13,001 --> 01:47:20,087
Well now, wait a minute, Vinnie.
The suit...

1722
01:47:20,088 --> 01:47:23,211
Well, there's something
wrong with your reasoning!

1723
01:47:23,212 --> 01:47:25,998
Well, Clare!
I'm surprised at you!

1724
01:47:25,999 --> 01:47:28,222
And you're supposed to be
so good at figures!

1725
01:47:28,223 --> 01:47:30,296
Why, it's perfectly
clear to me!

1726
01:47:30,297 --> 01:47:32,766
Vinnie, they're going to charge
me for one thing or the other!

1727
01:47:32,767 --> 01:47:34,734
Don't you let them!

1728
01:47:38,000 --> 01:47:40,222
Haa...

1729
01:47:40,223 --> 01:47:42,222
Well, McCreery's aren't
giving away suits,

1730
01:47:42,223 --> 01:47:44,198
and they aren't
giving away pug dogs.

1731
01:47:44,199 --> 01:47:46,212
Why, it should be
clear to a child,

1732
01:47:46,213 --> 01:47:52,407
that if Clarence sent the
pug dog back, they... Well...

1733
01:47:54,408 --> 01:47:56,998
I will not have that
botanical freak in this room!

1734
01:47:57,222 --> 01:48:00,504
John! Have you been going around
this town selling medicine?

1735
01:48:00,505 --> 01:48:02,777
Yes, Mother.
Dog medicine?

1736
01:48:02,778 --> 01:48:04,998
No, Mother.
Not dog medicine.

1737
01:48:04,999 --> 01:48:08,777
This letter from Mrs. Sprague says you
sold her a bottle of this medicine

1738
01:48:08,778 --> 01:48:13,000
and that her little boy gave some of
it to their dog and it killed him.

1739
01:48:13,333 --> 01:48:15,616
Now she wants $10 from us
for a new dog

1740
01:48:15,888 --> 01:48:18,083
Here, let me see that letter.

1741
01:48:18,084 --> 01:48:20,956
Well, he shouldn't have given it
to a dog. It's for humans.

1742
01:48:20,957 --> 01:48:24,327
Why, it's Bartlett's Beneficent Balm,
made from a secret formula.

1743
01:48:24,328 --> 01:48:26,568
Have you been going
around among our friends

1744
01:48:26,569 --> 01:48:28,568
and neighbors selling 
some patent nostrum?

1745
01:48:28,569 --> 01:48:31,477
But it's good medicine, Father.
I can prove that by Mother.

1746
01:48:31,478 --> 01:48:34,428
Vinnie, what do you know about this?
Well, nothing, Clare.

1747
01:48:34,429 --> 01:48:37,444
But I'm sure John...
No, I mean that day Mother was...

1748
01:48:37,445 --> 01:48:39,555
That's enough!
You're going to every house

1749
01:48:39,556 --> 01:48:42,000
where you sold a bottle of that
concoction and buy it all back!

1750
01:48:42,001 --> 01:48:45,819
But it's a dollar a bottle!
I don't care how much it is.

1751
01:48:45,820 --> 01:48:48,561
Here.
I'll give you the money now.

1752
01:48:48,562 --> 01:48:49,555
How many bottles did you sell?

1753
01:48:49,556 --> 01:48:53,180
128...
128?!

1754
01:48:53,181 --> 01:48:56,444
Clare, I always told you John
would make a good businessman!

1755
01:48:57,555 --> 01:49:00,819
Young man, you'll have to come
down to my office with me.

1756
01:49:00,820 --> 01:49:03,639
I'll give you the money to
buy back that medicine.

1757
01:49:03,640 --> 01:49:07,555
$128, and $10 more
for Mrs. Sprague's dog.

1758
01:49:07,556 --> 01:49:10,136
That's $138.
Thank you, Vinnie.

1759
01:49:10,137 --> 01:49:12,078
But it's all coming out
of your allowance!

1760
01:49:12,079 --> 01:49:15,929
That means that you'll not get another
penny until the whole $138 is paid up!

1761
01:49:18,787 --> 01:49:21,771
I'll be 21 years old!

1762
01:49:24,772 --> 01:49:26,333
Oh God!

1763
01:49:26,334 --> 01:49:28,754
What the matter, Clare?
What's wrong?

1764
01:49:36,777 --> 01:49:40,266
Those gypsies are back!
Don't anyone answer the door!

1765
01:49:40,267 --> 01:49:42,998
They're moving in on us again,
bag and baggage!

1766
01:49:42,999 --> 01:49:45,610
I won't have it, I tell you!
I won't have it!

1767
01:49:45,611 --> 01:49:47,669
Now Clare...

1768
01:49:47,670 --> 01:49:49,000
Don't let them in!

1769
01:49:49,001 --> 01:49:50,671
Clare, hush up.
They'll hear you.

1770
01:49:50,672 --> 01:49:53,222
Tell them to get back in that cab
and drive right on to Ohio!

1771
01:49:53,223 --> 01:49:55,666
As if we could turn
our own relatives away!

1772
01:49:55,667 --> 01:49:59,111
They're extravagant enough to take cabs
when horse cars run right by our door.

1773
01:49:59,112 --> 01:50:02,777
Now, you be quiet and behave yourself!
John, come help with the baggage.

1774
01:50:02,778 --> 01:50:05,000
Why do they always have to pounce
on us without any warning?

1775
01:50:05,001 --> 01:50:09,707
Shhhh!
Cora! Mary!

1776
01:50:09,708 --> 01:50:12,455
Well, it's so good to
have you back again!

1777
01:50:12,456 --> 01:50:14,333
How are you, Vinnie?
We've been so worried about you.

1778
01:50:14,334 --> 01:50:17,000
Oh, I'm fine now.
Did you have fun in Springfield?

1779
01:50:17,001 --> 01:50:18,555
Oh, it was wonderful.

1780
01:50:18,556 --> 01:50:22,444
John, my! You're still growing!
Thank you, Cousin Cora.

1781
01:50:22,445 --> 01:50:24,555
John, go get their baggage.
There's Whitney.

1782
01:50:24,556 --> 01:50:27,888
Whitney, how are you. darling?
Fine, thank you.

1783
01:50:27,889 --> 01:50:30,004
And little Harlan.

1784
01:50:30,005 --> 01:50:33,004
Have you been a good boy?
No...

1785
01:50:33,666 --> 01:50:36,136
Clare,
the girls are here.

1786
01:50:36,137 --> 01:50:39,138
Cousin Clare!
Here we are again!

1787
01:50:39,888 --> 01:50:42,111
My my!
It's so nice to be back!

1788
01:50:42,112 --> 01:50:43,777
How do you do, Mr. Day?
How do you do?

1789
01:50:43,778 --> 01:50:45,666
Come in sit down and
have some breakfast with us.

1790
01:50:45,667 --> 01:50:47,222
Oh, we had breakfast
at the depot.

1791
01:50:47,223 --> 01:50:49,050
Well, we've practically
finished ours.

1792
01:50:49,051 --> 01:50:52,666
I haven't finished my breakfast!
Well then, sit down, Clare!

1793
01:50:52,667 --> 01:50:55,725
Come have a cup of coffee anyway.
Mary, sit over there.

1794
01:50:55,777 --> 01:50:59,054
Cora...
Maggie, clear those places.

1795
01:50:59,055 --> 01:51:01,000
My my!
This seems so natural.

1796
01:51:01,001 --> 01:51:03,471
Clare, don't let your
kippers get cold!

1797
01:51:03,472 --> 01:51:06,111
Maggie, serve some coffee.
Yes ma'am.

1798
01:51:06,112 --> 01:51:07,760
Where's Clarence?

1799
01:51:07,761 --> 01:51:11,666
He must be upstairs moving his things
so you can have his room again.

1800
01:51:11,667 --> 01:51:13,888
Oh oh Vinnie,
we can't stay overnight.

1801
01:51:13,889 --> 01:51:17,666
Grandpa Evans has been failing very fast,
and that's why I have to hurry back.

1802
01:51:17,667 --> 01:51:20,555
We're leaving on the 5 o'clock
train this afternoon.

1803
01:51:20,556 --> 01:51:24,193
Well, Cora, it certainly is
good to see again!

1804
01:51:24,194 --> 01:51:30,666
[doorbell ringing]
Well, who can that be?

1805
01:51:30,667 --> 01:51:34,917
Well, this time it can't be another
special delivery letter for Clarence!

1806
01:51:34,918 --> 01:51:39,768
Ah, while you were in Springfield,
our postman was kept pretty busy! Hehehe...

1807
01:51:40,111 --> 01:51:44,000
It's the cab, ma'am.
Cab? What cab?

1808
01:51:44,001 --> 01:51:46,465
The cab that's to take us
to Audubon Park.

1809
01:51:46,466 --> 01:51:49,777
Oh, who's going to Audubon Park?
We all are!

1810
01:51:49,778 --> 01:51:51,876
Cora, the most wonderful
thing has happened!

1811
01:51:51,877 --> 01:51:54,959
Clare is going to be
baptized this morning.

1812
01:51:58,111 --> 01:52:01,666
Vinnie,
what you saying?

1813
01:52:01,667 --> 01:52:05,777
I'm saying you're going to be
baptized this morning.

1814
01:52:06,778 --> 01:52:10,297
I am NOT going to be baptized
this morning or any other morning!

1815
01:52:10,298 --> 01:52:14,620
You promised yesterday that as soon as I
sent that pug dog that you'd be baptized.

1816
01:52:14,621 --> 01:52:17,111
I never said anything
remotely like that!

1817
01:52:17,112 --> 01:52:19,029
Clarence was right there
and heard you!

1818
01:52:19,030 --> 01:52:21,111
That's why I ordered the cab!

1819
01:52:21,555 --> 01:52:27,613
The cab!
Vinnie, you send that right back!

1820
01:52:27,614 --> 01:52:31,530
I'll do nothing of the kind!
I'm going to see that you go to heaven!

1821
01:52:31,531 --> 01:52:37,614
I can't go to heaven in a cab!
Oh!

1822
01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:40,218
Well, you can start in a cab!

1823
01:52:40,219 --> 01:52:42,093
I'm not sure they'll ever
let you into heaven!

1824
01:52:42,094 --> 01:52:44,385
But I know they won't
unless you're baptized!

1825
01:52:44,386 --> 01:52:47,406
They can't keep me out of
heaven on a technicality!

1826
01:52:48,407 --> 01:52:52,307
Clare! Stop quibbling!
You may as well face it.

1827
01:52:52,308 --> 01:52:55,101
You've got to make
your peace with God!

1828
01:52:55,102 --> 01:52:57,692
Until you stirred him up,
I had no trouble with God!

1829
01:53:02,000 --> 01:53:04,525
Harlan. Whitney.
Come get your Sunday hats.

1830
01:53:06,000 --> 01:53:07,620
Clarence! John!
Yes, Mother?

1831
01:53:07,621 --> 01:53:08,821
Hurry, we're ready to go.

1832
01:53:09,222 --> 01:53:13,331
Oh, my prayer book.
Harlan, come let me fix your tie.

1833
01:53:14,333 --> 01:53:16,289
Vinnie, are you mad?

1834
01:53:16,290 --> 01:53:19,666
Was it your plan that my own children
should witness this indignity?

1835
01:53:19,667 --> 01:53:22,116
Why Clare!
They'll be proud of you!

1836
01:53:22,555 --> 01:53:25,727
I suppose Harlan is
to be my godfather!

1837
01:53:26,728 --> 01:53:29,777
Vinnie, I won't go through with
this thing! That's final.

1838
01:53:29,778 --> 01:53:32,116
Well Clare dear, if you feel
that way about it...

1839
01:53:32,117 --> 01:53:34,756
I do!
Well, we won't take the children with us!

1840
01:53:34,757 --> 01:53:37,999
I'm not talking about the children.
I'm ready, Mother.

1841
01:53:38,000 --> 01:53:39,777
Oh John!

1842
01:53:39,778 --> 01:53:41,555
Vinnie, I haven't time for
anything like that this morning.

1843
01:53:41,556 --> 01:53:43,478
I've got to take John down
to my office with me

1844
01:53:43,479 --> 01:53:45,000
and give him the money to
buy back that dog medicine.

1845
01:53:45,001 --> 01:53:47,222
But it wasn't dog medicine, sir!

1846
01:53:47,223 --> 01:53:49,555
Young man, we're starting
downtown this minute.

1847
01:53:49,556 --> 01:53:51,111
You'll do no such thing!

1848
01:53:51,112 --> 01:53:54,409
You gave me your sacred promise
that day I almost died.

1849
01:53:54,410 --> 01:53:57,111
Yes, and she would have died if we
hadn't given her some of that medicine.

1850
01:53:57,112 --> 01:53:58,672
That proves it's good medicine.

1851
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:02,888
You gave your mother
some of that dog medicine?!

1852
01:54:02,889 --> 01:54:05,000
John, you didn't?!

1853
01:54:05,001 --> 01:54:07,951
Yes, we did, Mother.
We put some in your tea that morning.

1854
01:54:07,952 --> 01:54:09,002
Oh John!

1855
01:54:10,751 --> 01:54:14,218
Do you realize you might
have killed your mother?

1856
01:54:15,244 --> 01:54:17,644
You did kill Mrs. Sprague's dog!

1857
01:54:17,645 --> 01:54:22,555
John, I'll have to give considerable thought
as to how you are to be punished for this.

1858
01:54:22,556 --> 01:54:24,542
But Clare...
No, Vinnie.

1859
01:54:24,543 --> 01:54:27,841
When I think of that day! What...
Why, we might have lost you!

1860
01:54:27,842 --> 01:54:29,702
You're all right now,
thank heaven.

1861
01:54:29,703 --> 01:54:32,000
But what I went through
that afternoon...

1862
01:54:32,001 --> 01:54:35,222
The way I felt... Well,
I'll never forget it!

1863
01:54:35,223 --> 01:54:39,111
You've forgotten it already.
What do you mean?

1864
01:54:39,112 --> 01:54:41,564
That was the day you gave
me your sacred promise.

1865
01:54:42,555 --> 01:54:44,965
Yes, but I wouldn't have
given you my promise,

1866
01:54:44,966 --> 01:54:46,716
if I hadn't thought
you were dying.

1867
01:54:46,717 --> 01:54:49,515
And you wouldn't have almost died if
John hadn't given you that dog medicine!

1868
01:54:49,516 --> 01:54:51,999
Don't you see?
Well, the whole thing is illegal!

1869
01:54:52,510 --> 01:54:56,530
Suppose I had died. It wouldn't
make any difference to you.

1870
01:54:56,531 --> 01:54:59,099
You don't care whether
we meet in heaven or not.

1871
01:54:59,100 --> 01:55:02,666
You don't care whether you ever
see me in the children again.

1872
01:55:02,667 --> 01:55:05,732
Oh Vinnie! You're not
being fair to me.

1873
01:55:05,733 --> 01:55:08,315
It's all right,
Clare.

1874
01:55:08,316 --> 01:55:12,815
If you don't love us enough,
there's nothing we can do about it.

1875
01:55:12,816 --> 01:55:15,000
But that has nothing
to do with it!

1876
01:55:16,018 --> 01:55:19,149
I love my family
as much as any man.

1877
01:55:19,150 --> 01:55:23,000
All my life, I've struggled
and worked just to...

1878
01:55:24,222 --> 01:55:26,752
Oh God.
There's that cab.

1879
01:55:30,751 --> 01:55:34,111
Vinnie, you're not well enough
to go all the way to Audubon.

1880
01:55:34,112 --> 01:55:35,886
Oh, I'm well enough
if we ride.

1881
01:55:35,887 --> 01:55:38,567
But that trip would
take all morning!

1882
01:55:38,568 --> 01:55:40,567
And those cabs cost
a dollar an hour!

1883
01:55:40,568 --> 01:55:43,000
This is one of
their best cabs!

1884
01:55:43,001 --> 01:55:44,416
This costs $2 an hour!

1885
01:55:46,999 --> 01:55:50,150
Well then why aren't you ready?!
Get your hat on!

1886
01:55:50,151 --> 01:55:55,777
Oh, tarnation!
Hallelujah! Amen!

1887
01:55:57,888 --> 01:56:00,000
Young lady,
if I hadn't been for you,

1888
01:56:00,001 --> 01:56:02,711
no one would have known
whether I was baptized or not!

1889
01:56:18,888 --> 01:56:21,993
Oh God!

1890
01:56:25,555 --> 01:56:27,999
Good morning, Mr. Day.
Going to the office?

1891
01:56:28,000 --> 01:56:32,400
NO! I'm going to be
baptized, damn it!
