[orchestral music]

Tsk tsk tsk.

Only 160 years
for a crime like that?

They ought to have
given him life.

[chuckles]

"J.C. Crosby,
new school head.."

His wife was in the store
this morning, Marge.

They’re going to the city
for their summer vacation.

Now, that’s a funny thing.

City people come here
for the summer

and we go to the..

Now, I told Charlie to change
the price in these ads.

How am I ever gonna get
any people into the store when..

Well, when my brassieres
are higher than Goldman’s?

I told Esther we won’t
wait any longer.

Everything will be spoiled.

We’re going right on
without him.

Of course, I know
it’s rude, but so is he.

The flies, mother.

But he’s half an hour late.

Oh, mom, that isn’t his fault.

You know how busy
he gets sometimes.

He might at least have phoned.

A fine guest, I must say.

Blacky isn’t a guest, mother.
He’s almost a son-in-law.

Almost a son-in-law is right.

In my time, young lady

’men didn’t take girls out
for almost two years.’

Aw, don’t go into
that again, mom, please.

I’ve told you a hundred
times he likes me.

There’s nobody else.
Only..

Well, he can’t get up enough
nerve to ask me to marry him.

Well, can’t you
coax him into it, easy-like?

You don’t think your father
gave in without a struggle.

That’s right, Marge.

Took your mother almost
three years to make up my mind.

Fred.

And you deserve
lots of credit, mother.

Main 7-6-4-1.

$1.85, please.

Ninety cents even.

Hey, pull right up
to the next pump, will you?

I’ll be right out.

You’re on a busy wire. Will you
please get off the line?

Tell ’em you’re trying
to call a doctor.

That will make ’em hang up.

Yes. And tell Blacky he’s
going to get a cold dinner.

Hello? Hello.

Gorman Service Station.

Oh hello, mug!
[car honks]

Yeah, I meant to phone
and tell you.

[car honks]
Say, wait a minute, will you?

Sure.

That’s what I thought
happened, mom. He’s busy.

It’s a sin, coddling
that boy this way.

Once Marge is married,
she’d better stop it.

Not a chance now, mug.

[car honks]
Oh boy, you ought to
see the line.

Huh? No, that’s just it.
Al didn’t show up.

What?

Your mother’s.. She is?
[cars honk]

Well, square it for me,
will you, Marge?

- Yeah.
- The way she’s feeling now?

You don’t expect much.
Only a miracle.

Okay. But don’t worry about it.

’Course I do.

Good-bye.

So he’s not coming at all?
Well, I like that!

Where you going, Marge?

Do you hear me?
Marge!

Uh, you go ahead without me.
Poor Blacky.

I’ll bet he hasn’t had
a mouthful of food all day.

I’ll see you later.

Hey!

What are you doing here?

Well, we had a date,
didn’t we?

And I’m the kind of
a gal what keeps her dates.

How do I stand
with your mother by now?

Like this.
And this is you.

Only she’ll get over it.
What time you closing?

Oh, in a couple hours,
I guess.

May I have the key
to your shack?

Shack? Say, that’s an estate
any bachelor would be proud of.

Is your, uh,
stove working?

- On all six.
- Well, we’ll try it.

Well, pull in your
eyebrows when you light it.

You’re telling me.

Say, how would you like
the potatoes fixed?

French fried.

You’ll take ’em mashed
and like ’em.

Yeah?
Well, what I’m gonna have--

What?

- Mashed potatoes and like ’em.
- Well, that’s different.

Be there at 8:30,
and wash up or no food, see?

I get it.
No washy no eaty.

[whistles]

[Marge whistles]

(Marge)
’Don’t come in here.’

- I got a pass from the owner.
- Oh, no, you don’t.

Now, keep on treating me this
way, and one of these days

I’m gonna pack up my things
and go home to mother.

I know, but this..

...this is private.

[sighs]

Sit down.

Thanks, pal. Boy, do these
tootsies hurt.

And have I been taking
it on the shins.

There ought to be a law
making all running boards

the same distance
from the ground.

How would you like me
to crochet you

a nice little pair
of shin guards?

Yeah. And make ’em baby blue
to match my eyes, will you?

Well..

[sighs]
...had a great day today.

I knocked off over 80 bucks.

- Really?
- Yeah.

[sniffs]

My favorite food!

Hey, wait a minute!
Don’t go in there! Hey!

Hon, don’t go in there!
It’s a surprise.

- Okay. I’m surprised.
- Oh, no, no, no, no!

- Keep your nose out of there.
- Mmm. Chicken pie.

Cream cheese.

Hey..

No messing now.

Stop it.

Get this all set.

Eddie Kent was in
to see me again today.

Bought that vacant corner
at Ninth and main.

Sure is a swell spot,
alright.

And not only that.
When Garfield Boulevard

is paved, we’ll get ’em
coming and going.

- Think you can swing it?
- Can I swing it?

Hey, just clamp your
peepers on those figures.

Oh, gee, Blacky,
I’m proud of you.

Proud of me?

Say, who nagged
and hollered me into saving?

Who made me
buy this shack?

Who dolled it up
to look like a million?

Say, if it hadn’t
been for you

I’d still be sitting
on the curb fanning myself.

Aw!

You’re a swell
little number, mug.

That’s mighty white of
you to say that, sailor.

Thanks.

I guess your folks
think I’m a washout.

I’m gonna give ’em the surprise
of their lives pretty soon.

How soon, Blacky?

Oh, as soon as I crack through
that Station on Ninth and Main.

Oh.

Haven’t you any other
interests besides gas stations?

’Course I have.
You know that.

You wouldn’t tell a girl?

Well, you.

Why, Mr. Gorman

your confession completely
sweeps me off my feet.

Now, you know darn well
I think you’re

one of the smartest,
most sensible..

Grandmothers you’ve ever had.

Okay.

Well, now, as your
grandmother, tell me something.

Are you in love with anybody?

No.

Well, that settles that.

Well, isn’t there anyone
around here that you could..

...care for?

You mean in a big way?

Mm-hmm.

You mean you?

Why, I thought
you knew that.

And I’m simply crazy
about you, silly.

I suppose that
knocks you over.

Oh, Marge.

You really mean it?

Gee, I was gonna wait
a little while.

I mean, until I had
plenty put by for us.

I thought a couple
more gas stations..

What a man!

Gas on his mind
and love in his heart.

And nothing
in his stomach.

You know, that’s what
this place needs, a woman.

Any woman, huh?

No, silly. You.

Mmm!

Boy, that’s the best
chicken pie I ever ate.

[honks]

- What’ll it be?
- A drop of petrol please.

I’m sorry we don’t sell
less than a gallon.

I mean to say fill it up.

Right-o.

[in German accent]
Maybe he knows where lives
Mrs. Franklyn’s house.

[in British accent]
Oh, I say, can you tell us

where we shall find
Mrs. Franklyn’s residence?

No. I’m sorry. I can’t help you
out. I never heard of her.

[in French accent]
She buy big house
near the big ocean.

Well, hope she likes
our little town.

I’m sure
we don’t need to worry.

We’ll find it down near
the ocean somewhere.

Ja, sure!

That will be 2.94.

Charge it to Mrs. Franklyn.

What? Hey, wait a minute!

Hey, Al,
do you know Mrs. Franklyn?

Oh, I knew
a Mrs. Kelly Franklyn once.

’Where does she live?’

Well, I’m not just quite sure.

You see, she’s been
dead about 12 years now.

Aren’t you mama’s
great big helper!

- Hi, Al.
- Hiya, Margie.

[Blacky whistling]

[cash register rings]

[laughs]

Hello, Marge.

[car tires screech]

[clattering]

Oh, I’m so sorry.

That’s alright.

- Gas?
- Please.

You better not
leave it there.

I’m not very good
on the turn.

Think those buildings
over there will be safe?

Do you suppose you could
move them just a trifle?

Then I’d be sure
to hit them all.

That will be 1.68.

Charge it to Mrs. Franklyn.

To who?

To Mrs. Franklyn, my mother.

Oh, yeah?
Well, where is your mother?

I don’t know.

Would you mind telling me
where she lives?

Why, that’s just what
I was going to ask you.

Now, listen here, lady,
I’m trying to run a business.

I can’t charge things
to people who don’t even know

where they live.

Well, um..

Let’s see. I can
let you have, uh

sixty cents, a key

a beauty shop card,
and my compact.

Haven’t you any idea
of the address?

Is there, um,
a Wadsworth place?

Oh, the Three Gables?

The big house on the point
at Silver Beach?

That’s it.
Silver Beach.

Oh, there’s a car
full of accents

just went through here
for there.

- Accents?
- Yeah.

One "was ist das", one "ooh la
la", and one "cheerio".

- ’Oh, the servants.’
- ’Yeah.’

Now that you know
where I live

would you tell me
how to get there?

Well, you go straight down here
till you come to the ocean.

The way you drive,
you can’t miss the ocean.

And then you turn to the left.

- Oh, the left.
- No. That’s your right.

This is your left.

Well, you just keep
bearing to your left

until you come
to the house.

Well, thanks very much.
I’m sure I’ll find it.

- Kind of cute, isn’t she?
- She sure is.

Did you see what
she did to my chaise lounge?

What a reckless driver.

I’ll bet she’s dangerous, too.

[vehicle approaches, honks]

Look, you’re pretty busy.
I’ll run along.

Okay. I’ll see you tonight,
honey, about 8:30.

Never mind the gas, buddy.

Where’s Mrs. Franklyn’s house?

- Is that Mrs. Franklyn?
- Yes.

How do you do,
Mrs. Franklyn?

I feel I know you.

I’ve done a rushing business
in your address today.

Your daughter just drove by.
I think she’s swell.

She wrecked my bench,
but I can fix it alright.

You owe me for
22 gallons of gas

but don’t bother
to pay me now.

I’ve opened a charge
account in your name.

(driver)
’Hey, buddy.’

Excuse me.

Will you tell me
where it is?

Yeah. You just go straight
down here to the waterfront

and then keep bearing to
the left. You can’t miss it.

Right. Thanks.

Bye, Mrs. Franklyn.

Call again.

- Morning, Miss Franklyn.
- Gosh, you got here fast.

Well, speed’s
in the Gorman blood.

My great-grandmother
was frightened

by Paul Revere’s horse.

What else seems
to be the matter?

Well, that jigger there
is loose.

It is for a little way, and then
it isn’t for a little while.

And then all of a sudden
it is again.

Well, that jigger
is the front axle

and it’s not loose.
It’s broken.

You made a perfect shot
that time.

Yeah. The traffic signal.
Look. It said "go" at the time.

Yeah. You’re doing okay.

How long will it
take you to fix it?

Do you expect me to pull
a rabbit out of my hat, too?

What do you mean?

Well, this car’s got
to go to the hospital.

Oh, but I’ve got to go
to the Country Club right away.

- I’m pouring.
- Pouring?

- Tea, silly.
- Oh.

Well, I tell you what.
I’ll send a cab back for you.

Well, why can’t I
ride with you?

Well, you don’t care what you
ride in or who sees you, do you?

Well, if I’m not particular,
why remind me of it?

Come on. Let’s go.

(Blacky)
Alright.

Sorry. I don’t usually
start that way.

I nearly always do.

- Isn’t that a grand idea?
- What’s that?

No fenders to be dented
when you run into things.

There’s only one car
for you.

What’s that?
Maybe I’ll get it.

Well, it’s got no fenders,
no tires, and no headlights.

It’s practically unbreakable.
It’s called a tank.

- This is lots of fun.
- What? Riding in this heap?

Oh, it’s not so bad.

Hey, you ought to see
the slick little roadster

I have when I step out.

- Step out?
- Sure.

You wouldn’t know me in my tux
and wrought-iron shirt.

Where could you go
around here?

We got nightclubs
and roadhouses

just like you’ve got
in New York.

Gyps and racketeers
and everything.

Take the Club High Tide,
for instance.

Can’t crack down on that place
with less than a tux.

You go there often?

Well, it’s mostly supportive
of the summer crowds.

Every once in a while
us natives

feel like suckers
and give ourselves up.

Yeah, I’m not a bad-looking guy
when I’m all dressed up.

[laughs]

[upbeat music]

You haven’t been dancing
with me tonight.

Huh?

- Okay. I’ll bite.
- No. I mean it.

Well, you know darn well I’ve
danced every number with you.

Not with me,
you haven’t.

Well, that’s the first time
two little drinks

ever made you
act this way.

Oh, the feet have been
dragging themselves

around with little Marge

but the mind has been
stepping out for little Glory.

Me dancing
with Glory Franklyn?

Ha! What a laugh.

Yeah. I’m practically
convulsed.

Don’t be silly.

You’ve been watching that door
ever since we came in.

You have, too, liar.

Well, I don’t know what
gives you these goofy ideas.

You’ve been talking
about her all evening.

Well, all I said was

"Not many rich dames
would ride in a truck

with a guy
in greasy old clothes."

Well, not many dames would.

I’ve ridden with you when
you looked a lot worse

and I didn’t hear
any cheering.

Well, you’ve seen me
dressed up. She hasn’t.

Which gives her something
to live for, doesn’t it?

What did that set you back?
Four bucks?

And a half.

[music ends, applause]

Tired, honey?

Well, we’ll finish
this drink and then blow.

Oh, look at that crowd.

What did I tell you, Sid?
The whole town’s out tonight.

Still want to go?

Well, whatever you say.

Good evening, sir.
A table for two?

- Yeah.
- Step this way.

- How’s this one?
- I don’t like it.

It’s too near the orchestra.

Sorry, sir. It’s the best
I can do right now.

Why don’t you ask them
to join us?

What for?

Well, I’ve heard so much
about her, I’d like to meet her.

And you can talk oil
and gas to her boyfriend.

Go on.

I have got a nice table
right over here in the corner.

Well, I’d rather go home.

- How do you do?
- Oh, hello!

I haven’t hit anything
for three whole days.

Well, we’ll have to get
some kind of a medal for you.

This is Mr. Larrick,
Mr. Gorman.

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

We have an awfully nice table
over here. Won’t you join us?

We’d love to.

Oh.

Perhaps we’d better not.

Oh, Miss Harris would
like to have you. Really.

Oh, that’s very sweet
of her. Come on, Sid.

Miss Harris, may I
present Miss Franklyn?

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

And Mister..
I’m sorry.

- I forgot your name.
- Larrick.

- Mr. Larrick, Miss Harris.
- How do you do?

Won’t you sit down?

We drove in the open car.
My hair must be a sight.

No. It looks swell.

Let’s make faces.

Come with me,
and I’ll show you where.

It was sweet of you
to ask us over, Miss Harris.

Oh, don’t call me
Miss Harris.

It’s so woolen-underweary.

Marge is the name.

And mine’s Glory.

Sid says I use too much.
You think so?

No. Blacky’s the same way.

These conquering males
are certainly finicky.

Especially when
you’re engaged to them.

You’re telling me.

Oh, are you..
Are you engaged?

Uh-huh.

Oh.

So are we.

How’s that, Marge?

The boyfriend will
think that’s grand.

Going to be married soon?

Oh, one of these
fine Sundays

when Blacky can divorce
himself from his work.

He’s lots of fun, isn’t he?
And very attractive.

Yeah.

If he were mine,
I’d marry him fast.

You mean before he fell
for somebody else?

Or somebody else
fell for him.

Well, he’s the type,
alright

but that’s the chance
you take.

I wouldn’t. I mean, if
I were engaged to him.

Mine isn’t going to be one
of those hit and run marriages.

No, ma’am.

No wedding bells for baby
until the blushing bridegroom

has made up his mind
for keeps.

Of course,
I hope he has.

My, what a cute lipstick.

With a watch.

- Like it?
- Oh, it’s a honey.

- Have a cigarette?
- No, thanks.

I have these made to order.

I require
an extra mild cigarette.

Well, if this makes you dizzy
or anything, just let me know.

[music begins]

Ooh, what lovely music.
Shall we dance?

Fine. Alright.

I’m not very good
at fox-trots.

I hope you don’t mind.

I know. You want
to surprise me.

It was a kick at that.

Me dancing with a million
bucks worth of class.

Hey, wait a minute, Marge.

I guess I’m just a big sap.

No, you’re not.
You’re just human.

I want you to be that way.

Only, Blacky,
don’t ever, ever

try to hold out on me.
Always tell me things.

Everything’s gonna
be alright, mug.

You just said so yourself.

Now, listen, honey.

Glory Franklyn doesn’t mean
a thing, and you know it.

You and I are gonna be
married just like I told you.

Why, there isn’t a guy
in this town

that wouldn’t give
his right eye to be in my shoes.

You can trot rings
around Glory Franklyn

or anybody else, see?

No, I can’t, but I love
to hear you say so.

You can trot rings around
Glory Franklyn or anybody else.

[car approaches]

[tires screech]

[crash]

I’m afraid I’ve ruined
your nice new bench.

Don’t be afraid. You have.

The next one’s gonna
be made out of iron

with a red light
and a bell on it.

It’s those darn brakes.
Can you fix them for me?

No. I’m afraid you’ll have
to take it to a garage.

Here’s the best place in town.

Fella named Brody. He’s a friend
of mine. He’ll take care of you.

Oh!

Isn’t that a darling
little house?

Yeah, I think it is.

- Yours?
- Uh-huh.

Uh, are you gonna live there?
You and Marge?

Well, if she doesn’t lose
her nerve and run out on me.

Gee, some girls are lucky.

Well, you don’t
have it so tough.

And I suppose you think I have
everything in the world I want.

Well, if you haven’t, you can
have it ordered, sent COD.

Yes, but when it comes,
do you know what it’ll be?

No, what?

Something that mother
and her silly old adviser staff

decided was best for me.

Gee, that doesn’t
seem right.

Of course it’s not right.

I don’t want every moment
of my life planned for me.

And I’m sick of seeing
the same ol’ people

and going to same ol’ places

and listening to
same ol’ cut-and-dried talk

day in, day out.

Every time I complain, it’s

"Glory, we know what’s best
for you." Best for me.

Well, why don’t you run out
on ’em. Give ’em the air.

You don’t know mother.

I can’t do anything
I want to do.

Why can’t I get
something out of life

like other girls do?

Well, now, don’t you
let her get you down.

Everything will be
alright when you and..

...you and the boyfriend
get hitched.

It’s pretty soon now,
isn’t it?

Oh, I don’t know.

They’re even planning
that for me.

[Glory sobs]
Well, now, don’t you worry.

All your troubles
will be over then.

You’ll be on your own, and
you can tell ’em all to go to..

[sobs loudly]

What’s the matter?
Did I say something wrong?

Oh, I don’t want
to marry Sid Larrick.

Oh, you poor kid.
You’ll be alright.

Aw, that’s alright.

[laughs]

I think you’d feel a lot better
if you came inside.

I feel a whole lot better now.

Well, you’ll feel
more comfortable in here.

Here you are.

Now you sit right down there.

Now, you try and relax.

Will you get me
a drink of water?

Sure.

There you are. You ought
to drink lots of water.

It’s great for the..
for the system.

Got a cigarette?

There you are.

There you are.
Now you’re all set.

I’m sorry I’ve been
such a nuisance.

You’ve been awfully sweet.

[car approaches]

Hello, Marge. Hiya.

- Hello, Blacky. Hello, Glory.
- How are you?

Well, I-I must rush along.

I...I’ve been having
some trouble with my brakes.

Don’t forget to ask
for Chick Brody.

Oh, thanks. I will.

If you’ll wait just a few
minutes, I’ll drive you down.

Oh, that’s alright.
Well, good-bye.

- Good-bye.
- Good-bye, Glory.

Better wipe your lip.

Huh?

It isn’t your shade at all.

Aw, now, listen, Marge.
It isn’t what you think it is.

Honest, it isn’t.

She came in to see me
about her brakes. They’re bad.

Bad brakes for her
but a good break for you.

Huh?

I didn’t know whether you wanted
mayonnaise or French dressing.

What were you saying?

Well-well, she started
telling me her troubles

and, well, she’s just a kid

and her mother
and that gang ride her.

She was so darn unhappy,
the first thing I knew

she was cryin’
on my shoulder.

Gee, I didn’t know
what to do.

You didn’t do so bad.
Your lunch is ready.

Oh, I acted like a sap,
alright

but it doesn’t mean
a thing.

Let’s forget it.

You can’t forget it,
Blacky.

I don’t know
what you’re talking about.

You’ll be crazier
about her than ever

and you’re plenty
cuckoo over her now.

Listen, Marge, we’re
all set to get married.

Does that sound like
I was stuck on her?

It sounds like
a nice kid

who made up his mind
to keep his word

but we’re not going
through with it.

You wouldn’t want
to be tied to me

and in love with somebody
else, would you?

But it isn’t that.

In the first place, Glory and
I are in two different worlds.

Why, she wouldn’t have me
in a million years.

But suppose she would.

Oh, we’re talking
like a couple of fools.

Listen, mug, we’re gonna
get married today. Right now.

And you get this, Blacky.
Marrying me isn’t going to get

Glory out of your head, see?

I wouldn’t want you that way.

I love you,
but if I’m to be hurt

I’d much rather
take it now than later.

Gee, Marge, I..

She’s got
an awful crush on you.

Why, she’d take you
in a minute.

Do you know what it would mean?

A shortcut, Blacky,
to everything you wanted.

It’s there, waiting for you.

A chance at heaven.

Better grab it.

We’ll still be friends.

Always, I hope.

You have to have
someone to talk to

about your oil and gas

and where to put
the air compressor.

And I’ll still
want to listen.

[instrumental music]

The next place I visit is all
gonna be on one floor.

These stairs
are getting me down.

I hope it wears down
your resistance.

We’ve been looking
all over for you two.

What luck?
Did you find them?

No. We gave up the search.
We looked and looked and looked.

Well, I never saw a man require
so much lipstick just looking.

Fresh.

What report on Glory
and her local Tarzan?

We didn’t see them.

He must have gathered her up
and swung into the treetops.

I can’t say I blame Glory.

- What shoulders.
- Oh.

[indistinct chatter]

[imitates Tarzan’s call]

Hey, Betty, they’re
out on the terrace! Come on.

Oh, boy.
It looks like a touchdown.

It looks like..
it is a touchdown!

What have they to talk about?

I mean after they exhaust
the subject of gas and oil.

- They’re not talking.
- How do you know?

Well, if I had him out
there on a night like this

there wouldn’t be any talking.

Please, Miss Bruce,
there are gentlemen present.

Scotch and soda, sir.

Oh, yes. Come along
you peeping Toms.

We’ve got a lot
of drinking to do.

Okay.

I don’t feel any happier
about it than you do.

Service station Romeo.

Well, it certainly places me
in an awkward position.

Oh, my dear Sid.

He was invited here so that
he could be made to understand

how thoroughly
out of place he is.

After tonight, there will be
no more trouble from him

I assure you.

[instrumental music]

- Blacky.
- Huh?

You seem so..
so quiet.

Anything wrong?

It’s that view.

Did you ever see
anything like it?

That’s odd.
I never noticed it before.

You’re crazy.

Why, you get this every night.

They don’t pull in
those trees and that sky.

I never saw those trees
and that sky before.

Well, what do you look at
when you sit out here?

Those lights way over there
in the distance.

- Oh, Pleasure Park.
- What’s that?

A place where us
common herd go

when we want
to have a good time.

What do you do there?

Are you kidding?

No. I’m serious.

Well, you know,
there’s a scenic railway.

It goes way down
and then up again.

And there’s a Ferris wheel
that goes around

then there’s sort of a scooter

shakes you up and down,
worse than my truck.

And there’s lots
of other things.

It’s not much fun, though.

I’ve always wanted to go
to one of those places.

I don’t get you.

Here you are sitting here
looking at those lights

wanting to be there.
You think it’d be fun.

And I’ll bet you right now
they’re sitting there

looking at these lights
wishing they were here.

It’s funny.

Blacky

will you take me
to Pleasure Park sometime?

Any time you say.

Can we go there more than once?

Every night if you want to.

For how long?

As long as you want.

Huh?

You really mean it?

Uh-huh.

I’ll get my things.

And every time I ask Glory
to set a date

she keeps putting me off.

Well, you can’t bully her
into marriage.

She’s a romantic child,
and you’ve got to humor her.

Well, what ought I to do?

Well, make love to her.

Oh, yes, of course.

And just what do you think
would be the best way?

Well, go downstairs
and find her

take her out
on the veranda with you

let her look at
the trees and the sky

and then tell her
how much you love her.

And after that?

After that?

Why...why, you sweep
her off her feet.

Alright.

I’ll sweep her
off her feet.

[Mrs. Franklyn sobs]
Oh!

[indistinct chatter]

Say, we’ve been trailing
you two all day.

Just want to get
a couple of pictures of you.

Won’t you step over
a little further?

Just a little further.
Don’t be bashful, now.

(reporter #1)
Here they come.
We got ’em at last.

Don’t be bashful. These are
all famous photographers.

Right-right-right there.
There they are, boys.

Now, look at ’em and smile.

You know, a great big
honey-dovey smile.

(reporter #2)
’Okay, hold it a second.
Now put your arm around her.’

(reporter #3)
’That’s the idea.’

’Now give her one of them
"my itsy-bitsy bride" smiles.’

(reporter #4)
’Now one for me, please.
Hold her hand.’

’No, no, no, look at him
as if you was gaga!’

’No. More gaga!’

’There! That’s it!’

’Got it!’

Are you gonna live here
or at the Three Gables?

Is it true that you were
engaged to Sid Larrick?

If I’d married Sid,
there would just have been

a stuffy old
church wedding

instead of reporters,
movies, and everything.

Say, shrimp, when
you married me

you hooked up
with front-page stuff.

Have you spoken to your mother
since you married?

Would you mind
telling me, Mrs. Gorman

what you wore
at the wedding?

What did I wear?

Well, now, it seems to me
it was some kind of a dress.

[laughter]

Isn’t it fun?
[phone rings]

Oh, I’ll get that.

Oh, listen, fellas,
we just got in.

We’re plenty tired,
so if you’ll excuse us..

Wait just a minute, now.
It’ll only take a second.

Just a couple
of more questions.

How many gallons of gasoline

did she ask you for
when you first met?

Well, I tell you what.
If you give me

about an hour to wash up
and change

I’ll meet you at the gas station
and tell you the works.

Right-o.

[indistinct chatter]

Boy, are those babies
a nosy bunch of guys.

Who phoned?

Marge. She called up
to congratulate us.

- Oh.
- I asked her to come over.

Oh, gee, honey, don’t you
think it’s kind of funny?

Why?

I like her,
and I hope she likes me.

I don’t see why we can’t
continue to be friends.

Do you like the house?

Is it really ours?
Do we own it?

Mm-hmm. It’s not very much,
but it has no plaster on it.

Oh, don’t worry, darling.

We’ll have it put on later.

[gasps]

Yeah. I know.

Dust is kind of sacred
to that cleaning gal of mine

but we’ll get a regular maid
who will do all the work.

I’m taking care of
this place from now on.

And when I think we can
afford a maid, we’ll get one.

Oh, but..

Until then,
a cleaning woman once a week

and I’ll pick her out.

Now, you don’t mean to tell me
you’re gonna put those

pretty little hands
in dishwater.

That’s exactly
what I’m gonna do.

But, darling,
you didn’t marry a guy

with one foot
in the poor house.

I got some money saved.

Oh, I have other plans, too.

This is a very charming home

but it’ll be even more beautiful
after it’s all done over.

Done over?
You mean all four rooms?

Oh, Blacky, can’t you
just see this room

all cream and...and scarlet?

And the entrance hall..

Oh, I forgot.
There isn’t any.

Well, we can have one
easily enough--

Oh, never mind, darling.

We’ll take the dining room,
and we’ll..

[knock on door]

Well, I will let you
get us a doorbell.

That must be Marge.

Hello, Marge.

Well, well, well,
if it isn’t

the old married man
of the mountains himself.

Funny. You haven’t
changed a single bit.

Well, I pulled out all the
gray hairs just before you came.

- Hello, Marge.
- How’s the child bride?

Anything you’d like
to whisper in my ear?

Oh, say, I brought you
a present.

Oh, Marge, you shouldn’t have.

Oh, it’s nothing much,
but it’s the one thing

you do need in this house.

It’s just outside
the door, Blacky.

Must be..

Oh, that’s exactly
what we do need. Thanks, Marge.

Well, when I heard
you were back

and I thought of that
poor little icebox

with the sun beating down on it
for hours and hours

I thought its little throat
might need cooling.

To say nothing of mine.
I’m gonna put this to work.

Gee, Marge,
you’re a swell sport.

Makes me feel as if I’d done
something kind of sneaky.

Oh, you precious infant.

You know, I really
didn’t do it deliberately.

I just couldn’t help it.

You’re telling me?

That’s what he does
to all us females.

I like you,
Marge, a lot.

I want you to like me.

I think you’re a swell kid.

Coming up,
service with a smile.

Oh, that’s a short one.
That’s for Glory.

Since when can’t I hold
my liquor like a lady?

Here’s to you, and may trouble
never darken your door..

...any of them.

Uh-oh.

Blacky, what are we gonna do?

Well, we’re married now.
It’s too late to do anything.

Since when does marriage
make it too late for anything?

[knock on door]

Won’t you come in,
Mrs. Franklyn?

Mother!

How do you do,
Mrs. Franklyn?

How do you do?

Uh, mother,
this is Miss Harris.

How do you do, Mrs. Franklyn?
Happy to meet you.

Miss Harris.

Uh..

Oh, uh, Blacky, fix mother
a highball.

- Alright.
- No, thank you.

Well, I guess
I’d better be going.

Good-bye, Glory.
Come and see me soon, won’t you?

- I’d love to.
- Good-bye, Mrs. Franklyn.

Oh, Blacky,
you needn’t bother.

Oh, that’s alright.

Oh, Glory, Glory,
how could you do

such a heartless thing
to your poor mother?

Now, mother!

I’ll never get over it, never.
As long as I live.

[sobbing]

Here. Take a sip.
It’ll make you feel better.

[sobs]

Darling, there’s
nothing to cry about.

Blacky’s the sweetest, most
adorable thing in the world.

And for the first time
in my life

I’m genuinely happy.

I know what’s best
for you, child.

Now you’ve ruined
your life completely.

Oh, it’s dreadful!

Oh, it isn’t,
and you know it isn’t.

Don’t you want me
to be happy?

Well, I am.

If you only
knew how much.

[sobs]

Well, it’s done now.

I suppose I shall have
to make the most of it.

Darling, I knew
you’d be sweet about it.

[Mrs. Franklyn sobs]

Gee, Mrs. Franklyn,

I’m sorry our marriage
upset you.

I-I guess we should ve
hat you in on it

but...well, I was
so darn crazy about Glory.

When she said
she’d marry me, I..

Well, it couldn’t
have been too soon.

I guess we shouldn’t have..

[sobs]

Anyway, I’ll break my neck
trying to make her happy.

Honest I will.

I hope so. I’m sure you will.

Now we must decide what you’re
going to do with yourself.

Who, me? Oh, I’m all set.

Well, I’m afraid
you don’t understand.

I’m afraid you don’t.

You see, I don’t just work
in the gas station. I own it.

Yes. I know,
but I mean we must find

some suitable occupation
for you in New York.

Well, we’re not
going to New York.

We’re staying here.

Why, you can’t bury yourself
in this small town.

Why, it’s preposterous.

Well, I suppose this sounds
like chamber of commerce stuff

but we’ve the healthiest climate
in the state.

I’ve got a good business here,
and it’s steady.

I hope to own a flock
of gas stations someday.

And someday I’m gonna
be head man in this burg.

Why, you mind living here,
do you, Glory?

Oh, I love it. We’re going to
have the whole house done over.

- This room is going to be--
- You’re only a child.

And mother knows
what’s best for you.

I insist that you live
in New York.

Now, wait a minute.

Glory stays right here.

I know what’s best for Glory.

She happens
to be my daughter.

She also happens to be my wife

and I have a few ideas
of my own on that subject.

Glory stays here,
and that’s that.

[knock on door]

Some baggage for you.

Well, you must have
the wrong house.

No trunks coming here.

Oh, wait. I sent a few things
over for Glory.

I thought you might
need them, dear.

My mistake, buddy.
Bring it in.

There we are.
Put it right over there.

Fine.

Here. Here.

Oh, we could put
one right here, too.

Easy does it.

- Can you make it?
- Oh, yes.

Oh, dear, I must fly now.
I’m late for my massage.

- Good-bye, dear.
- Good-bye, dear.

Oh, dear, dear.

Well, good-bye, uh..

Blacky’s the name.
So long.

Where do you want
this one?

Well, right, right there
is alright, I guess.

Here you go.

You midget. For a minute, I
thought something had happened.

Something has happened. Come
and see all the work I’ve done.

Well, that oughtn’t
to take long.

Oh, see? Aren’t they cute?
I did all those.

Why, you little toadstool.

Oh, I missed a little there

but I can get it off
with your razor.

And I put six of them
right up here.

- Aren’t they cute?
- Yeah.

What the..

Hey, what are you
doing here?

Well, Glory phoned me
and asked me to come right over

and when I got here,
I found the little woman

in the middle
of the floor crying

with a can of paint beside her
as big as she is

crying because she
couldn’t get the lid off.

So I started doing this
to make her stop.

What do you think of it?

Isn’t it beautiful?
Help Marge down.

- Alright.
- I’ll take this.

Here we go.

Blacky, you can finish.

- Oh, not me.
- Can’t you paint?

Oh, well, I can get paint on
and off a brush

if that’s what you mean

but my arm’s tired from
signing autographs all day.

Boy, and has
business jumped.

Say, they’ve been coming
from miles and miles

just to see
the nasty old oil man

who married
the pretty blond heiress.

Well, I see you
got rid of the trunks.

- What did you do with them?
- We put them in the cellar.

In the cellar?
Say, did you two dig a cellar?

No, in Marge’s cellar.

Oh, well, Glory,
we can’t do that.

Why not? Where else
was there to put them?

Well, I can just
imagine your mother

when she bumps her shins
into one of them.

Why the miniatures?

Because I thought
they were so cunning.

They’ll just match
this room when it’s finished.

Yeah. About the same size.

I got them at the 5-and-10

and some silver material
for the drapes.

And, oh, Blacky, I saw the most
wonderful rug for our bedroom.

At the 5-and-10?

No, crossy.
Isn’t he cute?

Aw, cut that out.

He’s just like a husband.

They always come home cranky
from work.

When will it get here?

I didn’t buy it yet.

I have to save for it
out of the house money.

Now, listen here.

Anyone would think to hear
you talk I was a pauper.

I got a bank balance

and I want you
to get anything you want.

But stay out
of the 5-and-10.

Oh, Blacky, don’t you
know how to play?

Play?

Why, sure I know how to play.
Come on, Marge.

♪ London Bridge
is falling down ♪

♪ Falling down falling down

♪ London Bridge
is falling down ♪

♪ My fair lady ♪

Well, that’s funny.
She didn’t even say good-bye.

I wonder what’s
the matter with her?

You must think
I’m an awful pest, Marge, dear

but the new furniture
arrived this morning

and I’m so anxious
to surprise Blacky.

I want to cook the dinner

something he especially likes.

Well, that would be
chicken pie.

Oh, it sounds complicated.

Do you suppose you could
tell me how to make it?

Sure. It’s very simple.

First you get
a nice, fat chicken

and then you draw it--

Oh, I couldn’t do that.

Well, of course, you can
get the butcher to do it

only I like to do it myself.

You see, I like
to render the fat

and do things
with the gizzard and liver.

Well, let’s skip that.
Maybe I better write it down.

Alright, go ahead.

Oh, you boil it first.

Then you what?

Oh.

Wait a minute, Marge.
I’m all mixed up.

I don’t know whether you
said four cups of baking powder

and a teaspoon
of flour or--

I think I’d better come
over and make it for you.

I’ll stop
and get the chicken, too.

Good-bye.

(Glory)
’It’ll be the first year
I haven’t had a new one.’

’Blacky says maybe next year.’

’He wants me to keep this one’

’and get new tires
and top and new paint.’

’He says
it’ll be just like new.’

Oh, is it finished
already?

Not quite, dear.
It needs a little baking.

Oh. Here I meant to watch
every move you made.

How did I ever
get so side tracked?

Gosh, Marge, I’ll just
never learn to cook things.

Why are you so nice?

After all, you know

we really shouldn’t be
such good friends.

Oh, Glory Gorman,
you’re a goose.

You know very well
I’m always ready to help you

any time you need me.

All I want is to see
you two kids happy.

Now, you turn
the oven regulator to 450

and leave it that way
for 15 minutes.

And then you turn it to 350

and leave it
that way till, uh..

...um, 6:30 but not
a minute longer.

No. I won’t.

Well, I better
make sure.

[doorbell rings]

Well, Mr. Gorman

how do you like
your nice new living room?

Gee, it’s swell!

- Oh, bread and butter.
- Bread and butter?

- See the new picture?
- Yeah.

Isn’t it grand?

Oh, you don’t like it?

Oh, sure I do.
I think it’s a knockout.

What did you do
with the old one?

I put it out in the garage
with your old slippers.

Come right over here
and sit down

in your nice easy chair

and put on your new slippers
and relax.

I’ll call you
when dinner’s ready.

Gee, this is what I call
solid comfort.

[alarm rings]

[alarm continues ringing]

[alarm continues ringing]

Hey, where’s the fire?

You have to get out.

Well, I just thought I’d try and
help you out with the dinner.

Well, you can see if the salt
and pepper is on the table.

Alright.

Everything’s okay, general.

You can take those in
and serve them

and I’ll be right in
with the...the rest.

Alright.

Boy, chicken pie!

I hope you like it.

Mmm.
Sure smells good.

There you are.

Mmm.

Get going, honey.
Don’t wait for me.

Mmm. That’s the best
chicken pie I ever ate.

Oh, hello, Marge.

What? You sounded rather
excited over the phone.

What’s the matter?
Your house on fire or something?

I feel pretty shaky.

Oh, gin! Could I have a drink?

Mm-hmm. I thought
you’d be crying for some.

Go on. Sit down.

Make yourself over
at our house.

What will you have it with?

Ginger ale...or, uh, ginger ale?

I’ll just take mine straight.

Quit kidding the bartender.

No, I do want it straight.

Hmm.

Rub it in your hair
if you like.

Thanks.

Aah!

Aah! I don’t see
how you can drink it that way.

Well, if Dr. Jamieson had
told you what he just told me

you’d take a good drink, too.

Glory..

Really?

Well, aren’t you thrilled?

Oh, I’m scared to death.

Well, does Blacky know?

Well, I haven’t told
anyone yet.

Oh, I’m so afraid.

Well, I guess
everyone is at first

but think how wonderful
it would be.

Why, Blacky would be
the happiest boy in the world.

Yes, but what about me?

Oh, Marge, I’m such a coward.

I can’t bear to suffer.

Suffer.

Why, you talk as if you’re
the only woman in the world

who’s going to have a baby.

Well, you talk as if
it’s fun to have one.

Well, of course
it isn’t fun at first

but think of afterwards.

Why, darling,
it’ll be the grandest fun

you’ve ever had in your life.

Imagine an adorable little baby
all your own to take care of.

A little Blacky
to bathe and feed

and undress and hold.

You’ll be the happiest woman
in the world

and Blacky will love you
to death.

How about another slug, huh?

Oh, uh, I’ll just
take plain water.

Okay, doc.

- Okay, papa.
- Huh?

Congratulations.
What are you gonna name it?

Junior?

What?

Hey, what’s the joke?

[laughs]

Well, I sure must be getting
dumb. What’s so funny?

Haven’t you heard?
You’re gonna have a baby.

I’m gonna have a..

Why, it’s all over town.

Everybody knows about it.

- Yeah, everybody but me.
- Huh?

Why, you’re only
a child yourself.

You haven’t
the faintest conception

of what you’d have
to go through.

I’m your mother, darling.

And I’m only thinking
of your happiness.

You must go
to New York with me.

Say, half-pint, what’s
all this talk I’m hearing?

What talk?

Well, can you beat that?

There’s a rumor around town
that I’m gonna be a daddy.

Is there anything
to it, honey?

Uh-huh.

Aw, gee, darling.

How come you
never told me?

I bet you knew
all about it.

Why shouldn’t I?
I’m her mother.

’And I’ve just been telling
Glory--’

Yes, I can guess what
you’ve been telling her.

Well, now you let me
tell you something.

- Now, Blacky, please.
- Okay. I’m sorry.

How long have you
been here?

Why, about two hours.

Will you do me a favor?

Will you step into the other
room for about 5 minutes?

I want to tell my wife
how much I love her.

Oh.

Hear that?

I’m salting away
all my small change.

Gonna start a bank account
for the offspring.

First thing you know,
that guy will be born

with a gold spoon
in his mouth just like you.

[Glory and Blacky laugh]

Blacky

Glory and I have been
talking things over

and I’m leaving
for New York tomorrow

and I think she should
come along with me.

I thought we had
all that settled.

Blacky, I know
that you love Glory.

Well, that’s one of the few
things you and I agree on.

And I know that you want
to do everything possible

to make her happy
and comfortable.

Check.

Well, then, don’t you see
that it would be better for her

to be in New York with me

where she’d have every creature
comfort and convenience

and where she’d have her own
mother to give her proper care

and the finest doctors?

This doctor I got
is a baby shark.

Why, all he does
is have babies.

He sets you back 250 bucks

just to tell you
you’re gonna have one.

We’d have found that out
ourselves in time.

I don’t doubt that your
doctor’s satisfactory.

But think of all the other
things I could do for Glory

things that you couldn’t
possibly do for her here.

And I know that you want Glory
to have the best of everything.

Do you want to go, honey?

Well, um, the change
might do me some good

and it would make mama
awfully happy.

Okay. Only don’t stay too long.

[phone rings]

Hello.

Hello, Mignon?

This is Mr. Gorman.
I want to speak to Mrs. Gorman.

I say this is Mr. Gorman.
I want to speak to Mrs. Gorman.

Is she there?

She isn’t?

Well, what time
will she be back?

I say what time
will she be back?

Oh, she’s leaving New York?

She’s got her things
all packed?

Well, alright, never mind.

Hello, Marge, old gal!

Well, did a rich uncle die
and leave you a million?

Better than that.
Glory’s coming home.

Well, did she wire you?

Uh-uh. I think she wants
to surprise me.

Well, uh,
how did you find out?

I just talked to New York.
I got kind of worried, and I..

Well, I didn’t talk to Glory,
but Mignon said

she was leaving New York.

You’re wrong, Blacky. She’s
leaving New York, alright

but she’s not coming here.

Well, what do you mean?

She’s going to California.

To California?

Yeah. I just got a wire
from her mother

telling me to ship
her trunks there.

Keep an eye on things
till I get back, will you?

I’m hopping off for New York.

I’m Mr. Gorman.

Oh.

Hello, Blacky.

Have a cigarette.

No, thanks.

Well, do sit down.

You won’t believe it,
but packing boxes

are very comfortable.

I came to see Glory.

Well, I didn’t flatter myself
into thinking

that you made
this trip to see me.

Glory will be here
in a moment.

Blacky..

...you’ll find her
quite grown up.

- She’s changed.
- Yeah?

She’s learned a great deal
in these past few months.

What are you trying
to tell me, Mrs. Franklyn?

You made a mistake
in coming here, Blacky.

What do you mean?

Glory’s not going
back with you.

If you’ve been putting
any ideas into her head, I’ll--

Blacky, you must
be sensible.

We’ll arrange
everything quietly

and you’ll give
Glory what she wants

her freedom.

- Does Glory want that?
- Yes.

I’ll believe it
when she tells me.

(Glory)
’Hello, Blacky.’

Hello, half-pint.

Gee, honey,
I’m glad to see you.

Don’t, Blacky, please.

I should have written to you,
Blacky, and told you the truth.

I’m sorry I didn’t,
but I just..

Well, I couldn’t, I guess.
I didn’t want to hurt you.

You’ve been so sweet
and maybe, well..

Blacky, I’m a coward.

I don’t get you, honey.

I didn’t have the courage
to tell you that it’s all over.

But it isn’t.
Can’t you see--

Oh, I can see. I can see
how selfish I’ve been.

But, Blacky, you married
the wrong kind of a girl.

- Oh, no, I didn’t, honey.
- Yes, you did.

I found myself.

This is my life right here

with my friends
and with my mother.

But that’s what
you never liked.

I thought I didn’t
like it, Blacky.

I thought it would be fun living
in your bungalow

the rest of my life,
but I was wrong.

Oh, it isn’t your fault.

You were very sweet.

You tried.

Then let’s give it
another chance.

Come back for just
a little while. We’ll try--

No, Blacky.
It’s all over.

Well, what about the baby?

Blacky, your
Dr. Jamieson was wrong.

Good evening, Mr. Gorman.
You’re just in time for dinner.

Marge.

How did you know
I’d be here?

I got word by Pony Express.

You better get in there
and wash up.

I hardly know you with
those singes in your hair.

Oh, Marge,
you’re just trying to--

You seem to have forgotten
where they do the washing.

It’s in there.

What’s the matter?

Mama’s little boy
afraid of the dark?

Well, mama will take you
right in

so the bogeyman won’t get you.

Here’s the water.
There’s the soap.

And a nice, fresh towel.

Gee, honey, won’t you listen?

Sorry. The water’s
making too much noise.

Honey, I don’t know
what to say. I--

Well, for a guy who doesn’t
know what to say

you’re certainly using
plenty of words.

But...you know,
I’ve been thinking

the last few weeks
what a sap I’ve been.

Then I got thinking
about you and--

And what a sap I’ve been.

But if you say that,
Blacky Gorman

your life isn’t worth
the paper it’s written on.

Aw, gee, Marge, can’t you see
what I’m trying to tell you?

I can see
a lot of food getting cold

if you don’t park yourself
at that table.

Oh, but I’ve got to tell you.

I know what
you’re going to tell me.

Once upon a time,
a knight rode away

on a cloud with a Princess.

But one day the Princess pulled
the cloud out from under him

and he fell right smack
dab on his..

Well, it’s a good thing
he wasn’t wearing armor.

It’s funny how a good kick
in the pants

will make a guy’s head work.

What the boy didn’t know
was that the local Cinderella

loved him and she wanted him
to be happy.

And, boy, is she happy.

Now will you go ahead and eat?

Gee.

That’s the best chicken pie
I ever ate.
