[SINGING] Point, point to
Hotpoint, and the life of ease.

For Hotpoint makes the toughest
job around the house a breeze.

Yes, Hotpoint means the best for
you, appliances and cabinets,

too.

Electric kitchens
through and through,

that work automatically for you.

So point, point to
Hotpoint for your laundry.

Move Hotpoint in and it moves
out all wash day drudgery.

So point, point to
Hotpoint, as the Nelsons do.

You'll toss your
cares up in the air

when Hotpoint works for you.

Let Hotpoint work for you.

[music playing]

- And now Hotpoint presents
America's favorite family

comedy, "The Adventures
of Ozzie and Harriet,"

starring the entire
Nelson family.

Here is Ozzie, who plays
the part of Ozzie Nelson.

And of course, his lovely wife
Harriet, as Harriet Nelson.

The older of the Nelson boys,
David, appears as David Nelson.

And the younger brother,
the irrepressible Ricky,

played by Ricky Nelson.

The Nelson's next
door neighbor, Thorny,

is played by Don DeFore.

[music playing]

- Oh, hi, mom.

- Hi, Rick.

What's the matter?

- Oh, nothing.

- Well, you don't
sound very convincing.

Something wrong?

- Life overwhelms me.

- It's all right.

Life overwhelms
me, too, sometimes.

What's your particular problem?

- It's just that
it's a man's world.

- You just finding that out?

- I've suspected it
for some time now.

- Well, never mind.

You'll be a big man someday.

- Promises.

That's all I get.

Promises.

- What's this about promises?

- Oh, your small son
has just realized

a few of the disadvantages
of being a small son.

- Oh.

What's happened all
of a sudden, Rick?

- Oh, heck.

It's a man's world.

- Well, yeah.

I guess it is at that.

What's your big complaint?

- Well, Iggy Schwartz and I
wanted to go to the movies

this afternoon.

- Well, why didn't you go?

- They wouldn't let us in.

It said for adults only.

- That's too bad.

- It looked like a
great picture, too.

- Oh, it did, did it?

- Yeah.

It had some pictures
outside the theater.

They wouldn't even
let us look at those.

- Well, I don't imagine
you missed very much.

- Then we wanted to help
some guys move a house

and they wouldn't let us.

- Didn't have your
union card, huh?

- No.
They said we were too little.

- Well, you probably were.

- It's not our fault.
I'll probably always

be a little boy.

People will always be
saying, "Sorry, sonny,

you're too small."

"Sorry, little fella,
you're too little."

I'm too little!

- Don't you worry.

One of these days you'll
be a great big fella.

- By that time I'll
be a little old man.

- I don't know-- all this
talk about being a little boy.

When you get past 13, you're
getting along, you know.

- Heck, yes.

You're practically middle-aged.

- Then why don't people
treat me that way?

- What's your complaint?

- Why can't I stay
up late at night?

- Oh, because you're too little.

- See what I mean?

And there's a swell picture
on television tonight.

- Oh, I don't know, Ricky.

Those movies run awfully late.

- Well, just a second, Harriet.

May be OK if he stayed up to
see the late show just this one

night.
- Well, I don't care.

Whatever you say.
- Oh, boy!

Thanks, Pop!

And there's a swell movie
tomorrow night, too!

- Hey, wait a minute.
Where are you going?

- I'm going to find the
whole week's schedule for all

the late movies.

- Do you think
that's wise, letting

him stay up late like that?

- Oh, sure.

I mean, after all,
the poor little guy

had a tough afternoon.

I just didn't have the
heart to turn him down.

- Yeah, but he won't
get enough sleep.

- Well, he may miss a few hours.

But one or two nights
of going to bed late

and getting up early the
next morning will cure him.

- Maybe you're right.

- What's the matter
with the midget?

- Who?
- My little brother.

- Oh.

Your father gave him
permission to stay up and watch

the late movie.

- Oh.

I wondered what he
was so excited about.

Practically knocked me over.

He'd do it, too, the way I feel.

- Well, what's the matter, Dave?
- I don't know.

I haven't been feeling
too good lately.

- Oh.

Well, sit down and take
a load off your feet.

- That's too bad, dear.

You'll feel better
after dinner, though.

- Sure.

- I was thinking of borrowing
Georgie Dunkle's barbells.

- What are they
supposed to do for you?

- Well, it would give
me some extra muscles.

- I think you look fine
with the ones you got.

- I know, but I got
to get in shape.

I was reading a magazine
article the other day,

and they said if you want
to feel healthy and strong

you should definitely
get some barbells.

- What magazine was that?

- It was called "Barbells."

- Well, I think it's
silly to do that kind

of strenuous exercise.

- Oh, I don't think so, not
if he doesn't overdo it.

- I think I'll get up
real early in the morning

with these exercises.

Do a little road work, use the
barbells, shadowbox a little,

do some sitting up exercises.

- I'm exhausted already.

- Sounds like a good idea to me.

- You really think so, Pop?

- Yes, I do.

Up early in the morning, plenty
of good exercise and fresh air.

Not enough people get exercise
during the winter months.

- Yeah.

I think I'll go over to
Georgie's and get his barbells

now.

- Well, be careful now.

- Oh, Harriet.

- Well, I mean it.

Do you think it's wise to
let him fool around with all

this exercise business?

Sounds pretty strenuous.

- Well, there's
nothing to worry about.

I'll tell you exactly
what will happen.

He'll get up early a few
mornings, do all that work

and exercise.

And believe me, in a day or
two he'll quit by himself.

- Do you really think so?

- Oh, sure.

It's the same way with Ricky.

The best thing to do is let the
boys find out for themselves.

- Well, I'll let you
handle the situation.

- Well, there's
nothing to handle.

Just let time take
care of everything.

The worst that can happen
is we have a couple

of tired boys on our hands.

Oh, I think I'll take a
little stroll downtown.

- Where are you going?

- Oh, I thought maybe I'd take
a walk past the Bijou Theater.

- Oh, I saw those
pictures yesterday.

Nothing.

- Well, in that case, I
guess I'll go out in my yard

and polish the car.

[music playing]

- Hi, Oz.

- Oh, hi, Thorny.

- Well, what are
you chuckling about?

You know, I don't want
to come polish your car.

- No, no, no.

This has nothing to do
with polishing a car.

I was just kind of pleased
with a little thing

that happened at the house.

You know, when you've got
a couple of teenage boys

you've got to keep your
wits about you all the time

or they'll put one
over on old dad.

- You telling me.

I only have one and I know.

[laughs]

- It's a funny thing.

You see, the boys came up to me
with a couple of rather unusual

requests, and I'm
sure they figured

I was going to turn them down.

But instead, I gave it
the old surprise element.

I went right along and
told them, yes, fine.

- Wait a minute, Oz.

You don't mean to tell me
you raised their allowances.

I thought we had a
neighborhood agreement.

- No, no.

I didn't go that far.

- Oh.
No.

It seems that all
of a sudden Ricky

has decided that he'd like to
see how the older folks live

and stay up late at night.

At the same time, David wants
to get up at the crack of dawn

and work out with barbells
and build up his muscles.

- Oh.

Sounds very confusing to me.

- No, no, not the
way I worked it out.

I just said, well,
go ahead, fellas.

I figured after a couple of
mornings of getting up early,

Dave would find out how
nice that warm bed can feel.

And after staying up
late a couple of nights,

Ricky's going to realize
that a guy can get

pretty tired around midnight.

- [laughs] Sounds like you're
using the same ingenious method

I'm using on my boy, Will.
- Oh?

Do you have a little
problem with Will?

- Well, I wouldn't
exactly call it little.

You see, Will has a
set a task for himself.

He's decided that he's going
to be the very first one ever

to read an entire
set of encyclopedias.

- Holy smoke.

Whoever gave him that idea?

- Well, not me,
you can be assured.

But he's over there
reading every single page.

- Well, at least
it's educational.

- Yeah, that's what he says.

In fact, he stopped
doing homework

and is concentrating entirely
on the encyclopedias.

He'll be quitting school next.

- Well, I don't see how you
solved your problem at all.

- Well, Oz, it's very simple.

He's only on the
first book, the As--

"airplanes" and "atom
bombs" and stuff.

Wait till he gets
to "bacteriology"

and "brachiopods" and
"Brockmyer's disease."

- Well, I wouldn't
worry about it, Thorny.

I can see that you're a man
of superior intelligence

and genius when it comes
to dealing with children.

- Well, thanks, Oz.

I can see that you're a man
of superior intelligence

and genius.
- Oh.

[laughs] In dealing
with children?

- No.

In being able to see that I'm
a man of superior intelligence

and genius.

- Don't forget to
tune in again tomorrow

night when our picture will
be "The Claw of the Vampire."

What's that?

Oh.

Oh, I beg your pardon.

That apparently was
our movie for tonight.

Tomorrow night, our picture is--

oh, thank you--

"The Claw of the
Vampire Clutches Again."

And so until then, may all
your dreams be pleasant dreams.

[tv knob clicking]

- Hey, how come you turned
off the television set?

- Well, all the
programs are over.

- Well, there was something
on that one station.

I saw it.
- No, no, no.

That was just a test pattern.

- Aren't you afraid you
might miss something?

- What is there to miss?

- The test pattern might go off.

- I don't think I'll wait
around for all that excitement.

- I'll go get the checkerboard.
- Now, wait a minute.

What for?

- Well, if Mom's going
to bed, you and I

might as well play checkers.

- Good night, all.

- Wait a minute.
Harriet?

- Don't make too much noise
when you come up to bed.

- Here, Pop.

I'll get them all set up.

- Rick, are you sure
we ought to do this?

It's awful late.

- Gee, Pop.

You said I could stay up.

- Well, yes, I know.

- If you're going
back on your word--

- No, I'm not going
back on my word.

I'll--

[music playing]

- Hey, Pop?

Pop, wake up.

Come on, Pop.

Up and at 'em.

- David, for goodness sake's.

What time is it?

- It's almost 6:30.

- 6:30?

What's the idea of waking me up?

- Well, it's time to start
our morning exercises.

- Oh.

Oh.

Well, look, son.

Let's start in with the
barbells tomorrow morning.

I'm kind of tired this morning.
- Oh, come on, Pop.

You'll feel fine once
we started exercising.

- Don't yank the covers off me.

- Oh, come on, Pop.

The morning air feels great.

- Well, not on my
bare feet, it doesn't.

- Oh, come on, Pop.

You promised.

- OK.

But we better not lift
the barbells in your room

though, David.

Your little brother was
up awful late last night,

and we don't want
to wake him up.

- Are you kidding?

He helped me carry the
barbells upstairs this morning.

- Oh.

Oh.

Well, I'll-- OK.

Go in your room.

I'll be right there.

- Don't go back
to sleep now, Pop.

- No.

[music playing]

- Oh, hi, Pop.

- Oh, hi, son.

How come you got up so early?

- I wanted to get
the morning paper

so I can mark down
all the television

shows we could watch tonight.

- Oh.

Well, good for you.

- There's three owl
movies on tonight.

- Good for the owls.

- Let's get started
with the barbells, Pop.

- Oh.

OK, Dave.

[music playing]

- There's one thing
you should always

remember in lifting barbells
early in the morning.

Rick, you better
listen to this, too.

Always start in with smaller
weights first, you see?

So you don't get muscle bound.

Here, these lighter ones here
are better to start with.

- And those look like toys.

Try this one.

It's only 60 pounds.

- 60 pounds?

Dave, do you realize that a
man could get a nasty muscle

wrench with 60 pounds?

- I was reading it in a magazine
the other day where these guys

were lifting over 300 pounds.

- Well, yes, but they're big,
fat Turkish and Egyptian guys.

And-- well, I can lift it,
don't worry about that.

- This I got to see.

[weight clanging]

- What did you quit for, Pop?

You were doing so good.

- Well, I just figured
out a better way

to get this off the ground.

Look, Ricky, you take that end.

David, you take that end,
and I'll lift in the middle.

You know, I'm still a
little sleepy, David.

You get your muscles
toned up first,

and then I'll take it up later.

[music playing]

- Oh, good morning, dear.

- Good morning.

- What's the matter with you?

- Um, um, I've been
building myself up.

- Well, then why do
you look so torn down?

- Pop's just a
little sleepy, Mom.

- Well, I've just been up
there doing a few exercises--

the-- oh, how do you feel, Rick?

- Oh, I feel fine.

- Oh.

Where's David?

- He ate his breakfast long ago.

He's outside doing
some road work.

[music playing]

- Ozzie, would you
like me to fix you--

Ozzie?

- Well, what are
you going to do?

He's not getting any
younger, you know.

[music playing]

- Hey, that was swell, huh, Pop?
- Hmm?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

That was the-- that was
a very good picture.

Well, that's it.

- Oh, isn't there
anything else on, Pop?

- No.

That the does it.

Well, should we hit
the hay now, son?

- Aww, so early?

- Early?

You kidding?

It's 1:30.

Aren't you tired?

- Oh, heck no.

Let's listen to the radio.

- No, no, no, no.

I don't think there's
anything on at this hour.

- Oh, sure there is.

There's Baggy Eyes Bigelow,
the all night disk jockey.

- No.

No thanks.

- Don't you want to
listen to old Baggy Eyes?

- No.
No thanks.

Nodding Nelson, the
weary weightlifter,

just wants to get up to bed.

Come on, Ricky.

[music playing]

- Oh, hi, Oz.

- Oh, hi, Thorny.

- Where have you been?

- Oh, I had to take the car
down to the garage for a little

tune-up.

- Oh?

How's everything at home?

- Oh, just fine.

- What about David?

Is he still weightlifting?

- Yeah.

He's up every morning
lifting weights,

but I don't think it's
going to last much longer.

- Probably not.

- What about Ricky?

Is he still burning
the midnight oil?

- Oh, yeah.

Every night.

But I have a hunch
that's not going

to last much longer either.

He looked pretty
tired this morning.

How's your boy, Will?

Still struggling with
the encyclopedias?

- Well, yes.

But it's kind of a
half-hearted effort now.

He won't last much
longer either.

You know, this psychology
we're using on the boys

really works wonders.

- Oh, oh, it's the only--

- Simply have to understand
the adolescent mind.

- That's all.

When the kids get
these silly ideas,

just string right
along with them,

like Ricky with his staying
up late at night and David

with his barbells.

After all, how long can it last?

- Not much longer.

- Well, I hope not,
because I can't either.

Maybe this intelligent approach
works on your boy Will,

but I'm afraid I'm going
to have to find something

else for David and Ricky.

- Well, now that were being
honest about it, I must admit,

I've been getting a
little discouraged, too.

- Really?

- Yes.

Will doesn't seem to be getting
tired of this encyclopedia

project at all.

Well, he's breezing
right through volume two

and says he can't wait until
he starts volume three.

- I guess we both
have our problems.

- I think I've figured out a
method to use on Will, though.

I'm simply going to tell him to
stop reading the encyclopedia.

- Well, what reason are
you going to give him?

- A very good one, Oz.

He'll do what I say
because I'm his father.

It's the same approach my
father used to use on me

and his father used on him.

And it seems to have stood
the test of time very well.

[music playing]

- Hi, Mom.

- Oh, hello, David.

I've been wanting to
talk to you, dear.

- Oh?
What about?

- Well, it's about this
weightlifting business.

How much longer do you
plan to keep it up?

- I don't know.

I was wondering if this
whole thing isn't just

a big waste of time.

Nobody at school seems to
think I look any different.

And I even wore a T-shirt, too.

- Well, that's too bad.

- You'd think somebody
would say something.

I've been working
out for three days.

- Well, you look
very muscular to me.

Just right.

- You really think so?

- Yes, I do.

Look, maybe now
would be a good time

to stop before you
get so lumpy you

can't wear any of your clothes.

What are you looking for?
- A tape measure.

You got one I could borrow?

- Oh, yeah.

One of them over here
in the top drawer.

- Thanks.

I just want to take
a few measurements

to see if I've gained anything.

- Oh, I'm sure that you have.

- Holy smokes!

I've gained two
inches in my chest.

- Well, that's fine.

- Wonder what my arms are?

- Holy smokes!

I gained two inches
in my arms, too!

Let's see, that's 2 inches in
three days, 4 inches in a week,

16 inches in a month.

Gee, in two months I'd have a
72-inch chest and 42-inch arms.

- Well, I'd suggest
that you give up

the weightlifting for a while.

I'd hate to have to widen all
the doorways in the house.

- Yeah, I guess so.

To tell you the truth, I've
been getting kind of tired of it

anyway.

In fact, I was tired of it
right after the first day.

- Why didn't you give it up?

- Well, I was just sticking
to it for pop's sake.

- I'm afraid I don't
understand that.

- Well, I noticed
Pop was getting

kind of tired and run
down, so I thought

this would be a good
way to build him up.

- Oh, believe me, dear,
there isn't a thing

in the world wrong
with your father

that a few mornings
in bed won't fix up.

- You sure he won't mind?

- I'm positive.

- Well, that's good.

I think I'll take the barbells
back to Georgie's right now.

Thanks for the tape measure.

On second thought, I think
I'll have him come over

here and pick them up.

I don't want to
get to musclebound.

[music playing]

- Oh, Harriet?

- Yes, dear?

- Say, is there anything
special you want me

to do for you this afternoon?

- No, nothing that
I can think of.

If you give me a minute, I'm
sure I can think of something.

- Oh, no, no, no.

Don't bother.

It's just I thought if
you didn't have anything

for me to do I might
take a little nap.

- A nap?

- Well, sure.

It's the only way I can
carry on with this mad life

I've been leading--

Up with Ricky every night
looking at television,

and up at the crack of dawn
with David pushing those

barbells around.

- Oh, say, I think I've
got some news for you

about the early
morning weightlifting.

- Oh?
What's that?

- David has decided to stop.

- You're kidding?
- No.

Hope you aren't
too disappointed.

- Oh, now you are kidding.

Gee, I feel like I've just
gotten a parole or something.

Well, I told you
this would happen.

- Yes.

Yes, you did.

- And instead of
arguing with David

about the barbell business,
I went right along with him.

Now the situation
has solved itself.

- So it seems.

- Hi, Mom.

Hi, Pop.

- Well, you look a little
bleary-eyed there, son.

What's the matter?

- That's a big gyp, boy.

- What's a big gyp?

- Our car is gone.

- Well, yeah.

I took it down the garage.

- Oh.

It's a big gyp, boy.

- What's this all about?

- I didn't get to take
my nap this afternoon.

- Your nap?

- Yeah, so I could
stay up late tonight.

- Wait a minute.

You mean to say you've been
taking a nap every afternoon?

- Yes, sir, in the
back seat of your car.

- No wonder you've been
able to stay up late

at night without getting tired.

- Yeah, but I'm tired now.

I think I'll go to
bed early tonight.

You know what?
- What?

- It's a big gyp, boy.

- Well, dear, I guess that
gives you a perfect theory now.

- Yeah, but I sure knocked
myself out proving it.

- Look, why don't you go
upstairs and take a nap?

- No, no.

I'm OK.

You know, there's one good
thing about this exercising.

I bet I took off a
couple of pounds.

- You probably have.

- Is there a tape
measure in there?

- Uh-huh.

- May I borrow it?

- Certainly.

Be my guest.

- I just want to
measure my waist.

I wouldn't be surprised if I
took a couple of inches off it.

Hey, what the heck is this?

Look, I've gained two
inches around the waist.

- No, you haven't.

- Well, yes, I have.

Look at the tape measure.

- No, you take a look at it.

That's a very
special tape measure.

It was designed by a young
weightlifter's mother.

- I don't get it.

- I cut the first
two inches off of it.

- Would you say
this had anything

to do with David stopping
his weightlifting?

- Well, maybe a little.

I had to do something.

I was afraid the weightlifting
was getting to be too much.

- Yeah.

I guess it was pretty
tough on poor Dave.

- It wasn't so easy on
poor Dave's father either.

- You know something?

You can say that again.

- What's that?

- Never mind.

I'm too tired to say it again.

[music playing]

- Oh, would you like
something more to eat?

- Oh, no, no, no.

I had plenty for dinner.

I just wanted to come
down and tell you

I think I'm going to
turn in early tonight.

I'm pretty tired.

I didn't want to disappear and
have you wonder where I went.

- Well, that's a good idea.

- Oh, is this tonight's paper?

- Uh-huh.

Hey, how about this.

They're going to start
televising the fights

in the West Side arena tonight.

Gee, that-- oh, no.

The main event doesn't go on
until about 10:00 or 10:15

usually.

I wish I weren't so tired.

I'd like to see that.

Oh, gee, an awfully
good late movie.

This is a wonderful picture.

I've seen it three times.

Really excellent.

- I'll be right back.

- Well, where are you going?

- I'm going to go
upstairs and get

some pillows and
your electric blanket

and throw it in front of
the television set for you.

[music playing]
