- "The Adventures of Ozzie
and Harriet," starring

the entire Nelson family.

Here's Ozzie.

Here's Harriet.

Here's David, and here's Ricky.

Here they are, America's
favorite family, the Nelsons.

- Boy, that sun sure feels good.

Would one of you guys
mind turning me over?

I think I've done on this side.

- Turn yourself over.

- Are you kidding?

I can't move.

- Yeah, it looks like something
interesting is headed our way.

- Hey, they're cute.
I wonder who they are?

- OK, you guys are just
trying to get me up,

and it won't work.
- Hi, fellas.

- Hi, girls.
- Oh, hi there, girls.

My name is Wally Plumstead.

What can I do for you?

- Go back to sleep, Wally.

What can we do for you?

- We're looking
for Kingsley Drive.

- Yes, it's supposed to be
around here someplace, at least

on this side of the campus.

- Well, it's across from the
auditorium and up two blocks.

- Oh, which way would 718 be?

- That would be on your left.
- Oh, thanks a lot.

- Thank you.
- Yeah, any time at all, girls.

- My pleasure.

- Wait a minute.

718 Kingsley Drive.

- It does sound familiar.

- Well, sure, that's
our fraternity house!

- Hey, I wonder who
they're looking for?

- Well, they're
probably looking for me.

Girls?
Girls?

Girls?

You know that address
you were asking us about?

Well, that's our
fraternity house.

- Is there something
we can help you with?

- Well, we're looking
for a place to live.

- Well, somehow, I don't
think the dean would approve

of your moving in with us.

- Well, now, wait
a second, Rick.

Don't be so hasty.

Maybe we can call a special
meeting and work something out.

- There must be some mistake.

- Oh no, I don't think so.

You see, we belong
to a new sorority,

and, well, we're looking
for a place to rent.

- You mean for your
sorority house?

- Yeah.

We understand your lease
is about to run out

and that it might
not be renewed.

- Are you kidding?

Our fraternity has been
there for 20 years.

- You must be putting this on.
- Oh, no.

- I don't know where you
got your information,

but I'm afraid you're wrong.
- Oh, I get it.

This is some sort
of a panty raid.

- No, really.

The realtor that
we talked to knows

a woman whose aunt
owns the property,

and, well, she told us
it might be available.

- Well, there must
be some mistake.

- You must have
the wrong address.

- No, I don't think so.

But thanks for
telling us anyway.

- Yeah, if you hear of
anything, let us know.

- Yeah, we sure will.

- We'll keep our ears open.

- Hey, do you suppose
our lease is running out?

- Didn't even though
we had a lease.

- Yeah, there's one
around someplace.

- I wonder when it does run out.

- Hey, wait for me!

- Hey, Charlie?
Where do we keep our lease?

- What lease?
- The lease to the house.

- What house?

- Our house, right here!
The fraternity house!

- I don't know.

- Well, aren't you
the house manager?

- I haven't been house
manager for over a year.

- Well, then how come I've
been paying my dues to you?

- I don't know, but
I sure appreciate it.

- Now, wait a second...

- Come on.

Maybe Kent knows where it is.

- Hey, Kent?
- Hey, Kent?

- Hi, fellas.

Sorry, you'll have to use
the payphone downstairs.

- We just want to know
where the lease is.

- What lease?

- Oh, here we go again.

The lease for our
fraternity house.

- I don't know.
I've never seen it.

- Well, it's been
here for 20 years.

- Well, I haven't.

- Look, we've got to
take a look at it.

We got a tip it
might be running out.

If that's true, we've got to
make sure we can renew it.

- Look, I don't even
know what it looks like.

- OK, OK, don't
get mad about it.

- Well, let's take a look in
the safe and see if it's there.

- Hey, yeah.
It's a good idea.

- Fellas...

- OK.

- OK.

- No wonder I can never
find the phone in here.

- Hey, maybe it's
in that tin box.

- Come on, let's open it.

- All right.

- OK.

- Hey, maybe that's it.

It looks important.

Holy smokes, whatever it is,
it expired two years ago!

- Hey, this isn't the lease.

This is our fire
insurance policy.

- Fire insurance?

Oh my gosh!

- Hey, what are you doing?

- Well, can't you read?
We've expired!

- Relax, will you?

Here's the new one.

- Oh, well, why
didn't you say so?

- You blew out my last match.

- Here's the lease.

And it has expired.

Yeah, but it says we've
got a 30 day grace period.

- Yeah, it's probably
automatically renewable.

- Yeah, it says we got
the option to renew.

- Oh, good.

Then there's nothing
to worry about.

- Hey, wait a minute.

There's a condition here.

It says, "provided the
house and furnishings

have been properly maintained."

- Yeah, well, then
there's no problem.

Thanks, Kent.
- Thanks a lot, Kent.

- What's your hurry, Rick?

- We have a work party over
at the fraternity house

this morning.

- How come?

- We're going to try
and straighten up

the place a little bit.

- Don't you think it's a little
late to do anything about it

now?

- Well, at least we're
going to have to try.

- Yeah, I think you guys
are worried about nothing.

After all, this woman signed
the lease 20 years ago.

She probably doesn't even
remember what's in it.

Why don't you just call
her up and tell her

you've decided to renew and
see what she says about it?

- Well, we did that yesterday.

She said she'd be over
at 3:00 this afternoon

to inspect the place.

- Oh?

Well, that gives you
about, uh, seven hours.

- Yeah, to fix up about
20 years worth of damage.

- Please, Mom.
Not while I'm eating.

[laughter]

- Right here.
You know what to do, don't you?

If you can't hang a picture
over it, fill it with plaster.

- Right.

- Where are the painters?
- Here.

- All right.

You fellas follow the
plasterers and paint everything

they plaster?

- Well, what if the
plaster hasn't dried yet?

- Uh, if it gets near 3
o'clock, paint it anyway.

- Right.

- You can retie the springs
and the chairs and sofas.

- I am, but I can't
find that big other sofa

that was in the study room.

- It's on the roof
of the Beta house.

- Oh yeah, that's right.

It was some party, wasn't it?

- All right, you guys
got your assignments?

- Yeah.
- Let's get going.

Hey, wait a second.

What are we going to do
about our fire escape?

- Oh yeah, I'll get that
when I get the sofa.

[snoring]

[snoring]

[snoring]

[snoring]

- Come on!
Hurry up, you guys.

It's almost 3 o'clock.
- We're all ready for her.

- Hey, look.

Whatever you do,
don't sit on anything,

touch anything, or
lean against anything.

- Don't even stare
at anything too hard.

Hurry up, you guys.

- What about that door
in the upstairs hall?

It still squeaks.

- Well, get somebody
up there to fix it.

- I'll take care of it.

- Come on, let's go!
- Excuse me, Mr. Plumstead.

When shall I announce
refreshments?

- Uh, later, Nino.
- Hey, you guys.

Here she comes.
- Where is she?

- She's just outside.
Ring the doorbell.

- The doorbell?

That thing hasn't
worked in years.

Here, let me have that, Nino.

- Hey, that's pretty clever!

- Oh, thank you.

- Cut it out, Wally!

- Good afternoon, Ms. McDonnell.

Won't you come in?

- Thank you.

Good afternoon, boys.

- Good afternoon.
- My name is Rick Nelson.

I'd like to welcome you on
behalf of our fraternity.

- Well, thank you.

- I suppose you've
come to sign the lease.

- Well, to be honest with
you, I'm not quite sure yet.

I'd like to look around
a little first, if I may.

- Oh, oh, of course.

- Would you care for
some refreshments.

- No, thank you.

Shall we start at the top
and work our way down?

- OK.

Uh, I think I'll get
some refreshments.

- Yes, sir!

- Someone's at your front door.

- Oh no, he's just...

Oh yes, of course!

- Boy, when she says start at
the top, she really means it.

- Hey, did anybody fix
that loose board yet?

- I don't know.

[creak]

- Oh, when was the last
time that room was painted?

- Well, um...

- That's what I figured.

- Guys, I could take
the upstairs study hall,

if you don't mind.

That's right down
here, isn't it?

- Uh, yes.

- Well, I hope you
boys are taking

good care of this furniture.
- Oh, yes, ma'am.

It's in very good condition.

- Oh yes, you can see
that for yourself.

- Well, I know it's old,
but it was very good.

- I especially--
- Yeah.

- --table.

- Yes, it is nice, isn't it?

- Oh, yes!

- What do you think she's
going to want to see next?

- Who knows?

- Will somebody give
me a hand, please?

- Oh, yes, just a minute.

- Oh!

Thank you.

Well, at least there
are no termites.

There are 12 shingles
that are loose,

and the drain gutter
needs replacing,

and the tile in the
shower needs re-caulking,

and there are five rungs
in the second floor

banister that are missing.

Uh, you'll find three
of them under the house.

The walls need replastering
behind almost all the pictures.

The windows need new putty, and
the spring that Mr. Plumstead

was sitting on needs retying.

- We realize there may be a few
things that need tending to,

Ms. McDonnell, but we have
put quite a bit of money

into the house.

- Oh yes, that reminds me.

There are three pennies
in the fuse box.

There are?

Now, if you boys will
read your lease carefully,

you'll see that practically
all of these repairs

are your responsibility, and
the ones that aren't, you

should have notified me about.

- Well, we'll sure try to
do better, Ms. McDonnell.

- Well, I'm afraid it's a
little too late for that.

I have a group of
sorority girls who are

interested in this property.

In fact, they've already
made me an offer.

- Gosh, you mean
we have to get out?

- Not right away.

You have 30 days.

- Goodbye, Ms. McDonnell.

[xylophone]

- Fix doorbell.

- Well, it doesn't seem fair.

It just doesn't seem fair.

- Wall, we've heard you.
Will you sit down?

You're making us nervous.

- Well, it's true.

I feel like I spent the
best years of my life

in that fraternity house.

- Well, the way your
grades are going,

you're liable to spend
the rest of it there, too.

- Come on, you guys.

We've got to figure out
what we're going to do.

- Here you are, fellas.

How about some cookies and milk?
- Oh, that's great.

- Oh, thanks.
- Say, here's an idea.

This establishment has a nice
kitchen, nice sympathetic

housemother.

We could knock out a couple
of walls and put in a dorm.

- Wally.
- Well, don't knock it.

It's not a bad idea.

Mrs. Nelson, how
would you like to have

a couple of steady boarders?

Say, about 45?

- I can help, but
not quite that much.

- I can't believe that this
Ms. McDonnell can kick us out,

at least not that easily.

- Yeah, you know what we
need is a good lawyer.

- Why don't you ask Dave?

Maybe he'd like to help.

- Yeah, it's a good idea.
- Yeah, why don't we ask him?

- Yeah, and being an
old fraternity brother,

maybe he'll work for
what we can afford--

nothing.

- Pretty interesting.

- Do you think we have a case?

- Well, give me a chance
to read it, will you?

- Hm.
- What did he say?

- He said hm.

- Oh.

- Well, I'll tell you one thing.

College students today
are a lot smarter

than they were 20 years ago.

Can you imagine anybody signing
a lease like this today?

- Well, we will if Mrs.
Mac will give us a chance.

- Well, you've got kind of
an unusual situation here.

On one hand, you guys are
responsible for an awful lot

of the repairs on the house.

But on the other hand,
the rent is pretty low.

I think if I were you, I'd
trying to hang on to the place.

- Are you kidding?

That's what we want to do.

- Do you think we have a chance?

- Well, it says here that you're
responsible for maintaining

the premises and furnishings
in reasonably good condition.

So it more or less
rests on the question

of what constitutes
reasonably good condition.

It's a question of
fact rather than law.

- Is that good?

- Well, at least it gives you
something to talk to her about.

If you guys have kept the place
in reasonably good condition,

she can't kick you out.

- Oh, that sounds great.

- Yeah, that's good news.
- Remember, now.

I'm not promising anything.

- Well, at least now,
we have a chance.

- I'll get in touch with her
and let you know what happens.

- OK, Dave.
Thanks a lot.

- Yeah, thanks, Dave.

We'll get out of here
now and let you get back

to the paying customers.

Goodbye, my dear, and thank
you for the hospitality.

- Mr. Kelley leaves
these for me?

- Yes, he did.
- Is there anything important?

- Well, you might
enjoy this one.

It's an eviction notice.

- It sounds like a
barrel of laughs.

Who's being evicted?

Some nice old couple
with no place to go?

- Well, I don't know,
but the property

belongs to a Mrs. McDonnall.

- Mrs. McDonnall?

- Yeah, I understand he's
handled her legal work

for quite a while.

- Oh my gosh, it is!

It's our fraternity!

It's an eviction notice
from my own fraternity!

- Well, congratulations.

- Well, that's what the
fellas came to see me about.

They want me to handle
their case for them.

- Oh, well, that's a pretty good
trick, representing both sides?

- Not only that, there's
a law against it.

- Well, what are you
going to do about it?

- There's not much I can do.

When's Mr. Kelley coming back?

- In two weeks.

- And he's already
agreed to handle this?

- Yes.

He said, would you please
follow through on it?

- Great.

- Hey, Dave!

Come on in!

Hey, there it is, you guys!

[honk]

- [SINGING] For he's
a jolly good fellow.

For he's a jolly good fellow.

For he's a jolly good fellow,
which nobody can deny.

- Just a second, fellas.

I've got something
I have to tell you.

- How about that?
He's settled it already.

Another chorus.
[honk]

- [SINGING] For he's
a jolly good fellow.

For he's a jolly good fellow.

For he's a jolly good fellow,
which nobody can deny.

Which nobody can deny,
which nobody can deny.

For he's a jolly good fellow,
for he's a jolly good fellow.

For he's--

- What happened?

- There wasn't anything
I could do about it.

Just after you guys
left, I found out

that Mrs. McDonnell is one
of Mr. Kelly's best clients.

- Oh no!

- Well, what could I do?

I didn't have any choice.

Well, after all, fellas,
Mrs. McDonnell is a client.

- I thought we
were clients, too.

- Well, yeah, but
she got there first.

- Yeah, with money.

- Actually, you're not
helping the situation any.

- Well, we got to do something.

If we get thrown
out of here, we're

going to be in a lot of trouble.

You realize how much it
costs to live on the outside?

- Wally, will you calm down?

I'm in kind of a
ticklish spot, but there

must be an answer to it.
- Yeah, but what?

- Well, look.

I can't really tell you
what to do or what not to do

or anything.

After all, I'm a lawyer
representing a client.

But as a fraternity brother
interested in the welfare

of his fraternity--

- Come on, get to the point!

We only got 29 more days.
- Yeah, come on.

Get to the point.

- Well, I don't know right now.

Maybe when I'm talking
to Mrs. McDonnell,

I'll be able to
think of something.

I have to get back
to the office.

I'm sorry, fellas.

- Look, don't worry
about it, Dave.

- Yeah, if you're lucky
enough to work something out,

we'll be glad to reinstate
you in the fraternity.

- Thanks a lot.

- Run long.

- What do we do now?

[phone ringing]

- Answer the phone.

Hello?

Oh, hi, Doris.

Oh, really?

Oh, there must be
some misunderstanding.

Uh, just a second.

It's Doris, one of those
girls from the sorority that

wants our house.

They're on to us
about the lease.

They want to come over
and look at the house.

- Oh boy.

We might as well pack
our bags right now.

- Yeah, let me talk to her.

- With pleasure.

- Look, we'd be happy
to have you come over

and take a look at the
house if you'd just

give us about an hour to
get things straightened up.

OK, bye.

- What was that all about?
- Yeah, I don't get it.

- Look, if you guys
would wait a minute,

you might learn something.

Now, when it gets right down
to it, how many people would

want this place?
- Well, those girls

- Well, that's right.

And if they change their
mind and didn't want it,

then Ms. McDonnell might
not be able to find anybody

to rent it to except us.

- Yeah, but you just invited
the girls to come over here

and look the place over.

- Well, yeah, but who says
they're going to like it?

- Why shouldn't they?

We just got finished
fixing it all up?

- That's right.

So now we get busy
and mess it up again.

- Hey, that's a great idea!

- Come on!

What are we waiting for?

- Boy, it's getting
cold in here.

- Yeah, I turned
the furnace off.

You know how girls
hate cold water.

- I wish I could figure
out how to get one of them

in the shower.
- Wally.

- Oh, I just mean
so she can feel

how cold the hot water is
now that we've turned off

the heater.
Honest!

- Hey, Rick?

How's this?

Does it look like the
whole room's leaning?

- Sorry, guys.

I think they'd catch on.

- Well, OK.

Forget it, you guys.

- Hey, look!

I got the mice from
the psychology lab.

- Oh, good.

Well, take 'em out
in the kitchen.

Don't let them loose
till you get the word.

- OK, but I got a warning.

Whatever you do, don't
bark because they

think they're cats.

- Hey, who's on the pipes?

- Uh, Eddie Benson.

OK, Eddie.

- Now, if anybody
turns on the water,

he starts banging on the pipes.

OK, Eddie, that's enough.

Uh, that's enough Eddie.

Uh, Eddie?

Uh, Eddie?

That's enough!

How about that?

Just putting on a few
finishing touches.

- Hey, you guys!
Here they come.

- Here they come, everybody.

[doorbell]
- What was that?

- The doorbell.
I fixed it yesterday.

- What did you do that for?!

- It didn't work!

Oh, hi.
Come on in.

- Thank you.

- Where are the
rest of the girls?

- Oh, they're not coming.
- Why not?

- Well, that's what
we came to tell you.

You see, while we were
waiting to come over,

well, we got a call
from a realtor,

and, well, we went and looked at
another place just off campus.

- Yes, it's just the right
size, and very reasonable,

and a lot newer.

- And much warmer, too.

- You mean, you've
already rented a place?

- Yes, but thanks anyway.

We certainly appreciate
your letting us come over.

- Oh, that's OK.
- It's OK.

- Well, we better be going.

- See you later.
- Bye.

- So long.

- Listen, as soon
as we get settled,

we'll have you over for dinner.

- OK, thanks.

- How's that for a break?

- I don't know whether
to laugh or cry.

[phone ringing]

- Hello.

- Hello, Rick?
- Oh, hi, Dave.

- I got good news for you.

You can tear up that
eviction notice.

- What's this?

- Well, it wasn't
easy, but I had

a long talk with Mrs. McDonnell
and finally convinced her

that it'd be to her best
interest to let you guys stay.

- Oh, no kidding!

- Yeah, she's on
her way over there

right now to sign the lease.

She promised to make
all the major repairs,

but you guys have to promise
to keep the place in good shape

from now on.

- You guys?

Ms. McDonnell's on her
way over here right now!

- Holy smokes!
Let's get this place cleaned up!

- I'll get the table.
- Pull those drapes!

- I'll get the furnace!

- The ceiling's leaking!

- Pan must be overflowing.

- Hey, the mice are loose!

- Not now, Eddie!

Eddie!

- Why don't we sit out
on the floor and cry?

- There.

Well, there you are.
- Oh, thank you, Ms. McDonnell.

You won't be sorry.

We'll really taking care
of the place from now on.

- Yeah, we sure will.

Awful sorry we couldn't
invite you in right now.

- Oh, that's all right,
although I must say,

I think it's a little
unusual that all you

boys lost your door keys
at exactly the same time.

- Oh, that is unusual.

- Well, goodbye, boys.

- Hey, goodbye, Ms. McDonnell.

- Oh, and whatever it is you
don't want me to see in there,

you will clean it up, won't you?

- [SINGING] For she's
a jolly good fellow.

For she's a jolly good fellow.

For she's a jolly good
fellow, which nobody can deny.

[music playing]

- [SINGING] Take
a piece of chalk.

Draw a line around the
world about 100 times.

And that's how far I'd
go for your sweet love.

Count all the rain
in a million years.

Make believe it's
a million tears.

Well, that's how much I'd
cry for your sweet love.

Here's everything that you
were to me in one simple line.

I'd go to the ends of the Earth
to be near you all the time.

You found the Earth with
its mountains high--

the sun and the moon,
and the stars in the sky.

Well, that's how much I'd
do for your sweet love.

Here's everything that you're
worth to me in one simple line.

I'd go to the ends of the Earth
to be near you all the time.

You found the Earth with
its mountains high--

the sun, the moon, and
the stars in the sky.

Oh, well, that's how much
I'd give for your sweet love.

Mmm, for your sweet love.

Whoa, for your sweet love.

Mmm, for your sweet love.

Mmm, for your sweet love.
