STARRING ANDY GRIFFITH...

WITH RONNY HOWARD...

ALSO STARRING DON KNOTTS.

MORNIN', ELI. GOOD SERVICE.

YOU'LL ENJOY IT.

WE WENT TO THE EARLY ONE.

HEY, OPE. HEY, JOHNNY PAUL.

GOOD SERMON TODAY. IT'S ABOUT CAIN AND ABEL.

YOU SEE, IT'S ABOUT THESE TWO BROTHERS,

AND THEY HAD ALL THIS TROUBLE -- OPIE, HUSH.

OH, SORRY, PAW.

IT'S ALL I CAN TELL YOU, JOHNNY PAUL.

BUT DON'T BE SURPRISED IF SOMEBODY GETS KILLED.

OPIE, REALLY.

OPIE, BIBLE KNOWLEDGE IS A FINE THING, BUT DON'T FLAUNT IT.

ANDY, LOOK THERE -- THE BEAMONS.

DON'T THEY MAKE A PICTURE?

FOUR GENERATIONS, ALL GOING TO CHURCH TOGETHER.

IT'S CLAUDE, SR., CLAUDE, JR.

PLAIN CLAUDE BEAMON, AND CLAUDETTE.

WHAT A WONDERFUL THING.

PAW? HMM?

WHY DO THEY CALL MR. BEAMON "PLAIN CLAUDE BEAMON"?

BECAUSE HE'S NOT A SR. AND HE'S NOT A JR.

SO THEY CALL HIM "PLAIN CLAUDE BEAMON."

ALL THESE YEARS, I THOUGHT THEY CALLED HIM "PLAIN CLAUDE"

BECAUSE HE WAS SO HOMELY.

HE'S NOT REALLY HOMELY.

HE'S GOT THE BEAMON OVERBITE

BUT THAT'S MORE OF A CHARACTERISTIC.

TRAIT. OH, IT'S A SWEET SIGHT.

ANDY, I WISH WE HAD MORE RELATIVES.

RIGHT NOW, I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING I'D ENJOY MORE

THAN COOKING A BIG CHICKEN DINNER

FOR A HOUSE FULL OF RELATIVES.

WELL, WE GOT A FEW KIN SPRINKLED 'ROUND HERE AND THERE.

OH, BUT WE NEVER SEE THEM.

OPIE'S NEVER EVEN MET HIS UNCLE TODD.

HAVE I GOT AN UNCLE TODD, PAW?

WELL, SORT OF.

HE'S MY SECOND COUSIN.

HE'S WHAT THEY CALL A WIPER ON A OIL TANKER.

TRAVELS ALL OVER THE WORLD.

JUST WIPIN'?

YOUR UNCLE TODD HELPS TO KEEP THE ENGINES ON SHIPS

IN WORKING ORDER.

HE'S BEEN TO HONG KONG AND SINGAPORE AND LONDON AND PARIS

ALL THOSE FOREIGN SPOTS.

WOW. DOESN'T HE EVER COME TO AMERICA?

HE DON'T WANT TO.

SOMETHING ABOUT A GIRL IN CLEVELAND, OHIO.

ANDY, Shh.

NO. OPIE'S NEVER MET ANY OF HIS RELATIVES.

HE'S NEVER MET HIS UNCLE OLLIE OR HIS AUNT NORA

AND THEIR TWO BOYS, ROGER AND BRUCE.

I THINK IT'S A SHAME.

I THINK IT'S A CRYING SHAME.

WELL, ONE OF THESE DAYS

WE'LL GO UP TO LAKE CHARLES AND SEE 'EM.

YOU'VE SAID THAT FOR YEARS.

YOU'LL NEVER FIND THE TIME.

WELL, WE'LL GO UP THERE SOMETIME.

ANDY, WHY DON'T WE INVITE THEM HERE?

WELL...

PLEASE.

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I'VE SEEN MY BABY SISTER.

WELL, IF YOU REALLY WANT TO.

REALLY? WELL, SURE.

GOOD. I'LL WRITE OLLIE AND NORA TONIGHT

AND I'LL INVITE THEM FOR NEXT WEEKEND.

BOY, IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I'VE SEEN UNCLE OLLIE.

15 YEARS, MAYBE MORE.

WILL WE HAVE ANYTHING IN COMMON?

OF COURSE YOU WILL.

YOU AND HE PLAYED BASEBALL TOGETHER.

MAYBE HE'LL BRING ALONG HIS BALL AND BAT.

AUNT BEE, THAT WAS A LONG TIME AGO.

WE'RE A LOT OLDER NOW.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

ONCE YOU LEARN TO CATCH A BALL, YOU NEVER FORGET.

NOW, AUNT BEE

I HOPE YOU WON'T WORK TOO HARD WHILE THEY'RE HERE.

OH, I'LL BE JUST FINE.

IF YOUR BACK GOES OUT

THE WHOLE VISIT, IT'LL BE RUINED.

MY BACK WON'T GO OUT.

IT'S BEEN IN FOR TWO MONTHS.

JUST LONG ENOUGH FOR YOU TO GET COCKY ABOUT IT.

OH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

I WANT YOU TO REMEMBER I SAID IT--

DON'T WORK TOO HARD.

LET AUNT NORA HELP OUT.

LET'S NOT ARGUE, ANDY.

I'LL GET ALL HOT BEFORE THEY GET HERE.

I'LL FLUSH THROUGH MY FACE POWDER.

Woman: HELLO, BEATRICE!

OH, NORA! HEY, AUNT NORA.

HELLO THERE, OLLIE, YOU OLD SON OF A GUN.

YOU'RE PUTTING ON A LITTLE WEIGHT.

HOW ABOUT YOURSELF?

THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD BAY WINDOW YOU'VE GOT.

LET ME SEE ANDY.

LIVIN' THE GOOD LIFE, OLLIE.

OH, I CAN SEE THAT.

OH, HE HASN'T CHANGED. HEY, NORA.

HE HASN'T CHANGED.

I'VE ALWAYS SAID IT AND I ALWAYS WILL --

HE'S THE HANDSOMEST MAN IN OUR FAMILY.

WELL... OH, YES, YOU ARE.

HANDSOME AS A BOY, HANDSOME AS A MAN.

MAN AND BOY.

HANDSOME IS AS HANDSOME DOES.

OH!

OH, HANDSOME, HANDSOME, HANDSOME.

I KNOW AT LEAST 10 WOMEN BACK HOME

THAT WOULD JUST LOVE TO GET THEIR HOOKS INTO YOU.

HEY, HEY, HERE NOW, NONE OF THAT.

YOU PROMISED.

ANDY'S GOT IT MADE AS A SINGLE MAN.

LET THE MAN HAVE A LITTLE PEACE.

OH, I HAVEN'T SAID HELLO TO THE BOYS. HEY, BOYS.

HEY. HEY.

THIS IS OPIE.

SAY HELLO TO THE BOYS, OPE.

HEY. HEY. HEY.

YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO YELL

WHEN YOU SAW A MAROON TWO-DOOR.

A MAROON'S A NEW MAKE TO ME, PAW.

AW, WELL. COME ON DOWNSTAIRS.

INSTEAD OF TAKING HIGHWAY SEVEN,

I CUT OVER TO 214.

SAVED SEVEN MILES.

HERE YOU ARE, ANDY.

TAKING 214, I WAS ABLE TO GET GAS AT FREEPORT.

I REMEMBER SHE TOOK 11 2/10 GALLONS.

THAT SHOWS SHE WAS GIVING ME 15 MILES TO THE GALLON.

THAT'S GOOD.

SHE'LL DO BETTER IN THE COUNTRY

THAN SHE WILL IN THE CITY.

SURE. IN THE CITY, YOU GOT ALL THAT STOP-AND-GO DRIVING.

IN THE CITY, YOU GET ALL THAT STOP-AND-GO DRIVING.

15 MILES TO THE GALLON, HUH?

ONLY IN THE COUNTRY.

ANDY, HAVE SOME MORE POTATOES.

OH, NO, I HAD PLENTY.

YOU'VE HARDLY TOUCHED THEM.

DIDN'T YOU LIKE THE WAY I FIXED THEM?

OH, THEY WAS GOOD. I JUST HAD PLENTY.

WELL, HERE. HAVE SOME MORE.

YOU DON'T EAT ENOUGH TO KEEP A BIRD ALIVE.

YOU'D MAKE A WONDERFUL MATCH FOR RACINE TYLER.

SHE DOESN'T EAT EITHER.

ANDY HAS A NICE GIRLFRIEND RIGHT HERE IN TOWN --

THE SCHOOLTEACHER.

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT SCHOOLTEACHERS.

OH, SHUT UP, OLLIE.

OH, ANDY, YOU'D LOVE RACINE.

SHE'S A WIDOW, TOO.

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT WIDOWS.

SHUT UP, OLLIE.

HE LEFT HER A NICE PIECE OF CHANGE, TOO

AND A $4,000 INSURANCE POLICY.

HE WAS THE TYLER BAKERY.

IT'S A PRETTY GOOD DEAL, ANDY --

SKINNY WIDOW, $4,000,

THREE-YEAR-OLD BAKERY TRUCK WITH THE ORIGINAL PAINT.

I LIKE A GOOD DEAL.

WELL...

HOW WOULD EVERYBODY LIKE TO TAKE A SPIN AROUND TOWN

SEE THE SIGHTS?

All: YEAH!

OLLIE! OLLIE, DON'T, UH...

DON'T DO THAT, OLLIE.

DON'T, UH, DON'T FOOL WITH IT.

DON'T DO THAT, OLLIE.

WHY? SCARED YOU'RE GONNA GET ARRESTED?

NOW, THIS IS ALL NEW IN THROUGH HERE.

WELL, IT DOESN'T LOOK NEW.

WELL, IT'S NEW SINCE YOU'VE BEEN HERE, NORA.

HEY, TESTING, TESTING. HEY, TESTING.

ROGER, DON'T DO THAT. DON'T DO THAT.

DON'T FOOL WITH IT.

NOW -- NOW, THIS OVER HERE, THAT'S ALL NEW.

WHAT'S THAT? I DON'T SEE ANYTHING.

WELL, THAT USED TO BE ALL GRASS.

NOW IT'S ALL BLACKTOP.

A PARKING LOT FOR THE HELP AT THE GAS WORKS.

I HATE TO KNOCK YOUR TOWN, ANDY

BUT LAKE CHARLES BLACKTOPPED AROUND THE GAS WORKS

THREE YEARS AGO.

WELL, WE WERE SLOW IN GETTING FEDERAL AID.

WATCH IT, YOU NINNY!

DON'T DO THAT, OLLIE. DON'T DO THAT.

I WAS IN THE WRONG.

I SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN HOLDING THE DOOR

WHEN A CAR WAS GOING PAST.

LOOK, WE'VE GOT SOME AUTHORITY IN THIS TOWN.

LET'S USE IT.

OLLIE, STOP IT. ANDY DON'T WANT YOU USING HIS SIREN.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT? WELL, ANDY DON'T WANT YOU MESSING WITH IT, SO STOP IT.

THEN LET HIM TELL ME.

ANDY, TELL HIM.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, AUNT NORA.

DON'T DO THAT, BUT IT'S ALL RIGHT.

NOW, BOYS, LIE STILL.

I DON'T WANNA SLEEP IN THE MIDDLE.

YOU'LL SLEEP IN THE MIDDLE.

WHAT IF I HAVE TO GET UP OR SOMETHING?

WELL, YOU CRAWL OVER OPIE.

AUNT BEE, TELL ROGER

TO TAKE HIS FOOT OUT OF MY BACK.

ROGER, GET YOUR FOOT OUT OF OPIE'S BACK.

NOW, LET'S ALL GET TO SLEEP.

IT'S GETTING LATE NOW.

OW! HE GOT ME RIGHT IN THE PIT OF MY BACK.

OH, WELL, THAT'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

I'LL RUB IT DOWN WITH WITCH HAZEL IN THE MORNING.

WITCH HAZEL MAKES MY EYES WATER.

WELL, YOU WON'T SEE SO WELL

BUT YOU'LL FEEL BETTER.

GOOD NIGHT, ALL.

GOOD NIGHT, AUNT BEE. GOOD NIGHT.

GOOD NIGHT, AUNT NORA. NIGHTY-NIGHT.

WELL, HOW ARE YOU BOYS DOING?

YOU COMFORTABLE, OLLIE?

NORA DIDN'T BRING MY GOOSEDOWN PILLOW.

NO, I DIDN'T.

I THOUGHT YOU DID.

AFTER ALL, YOU'RE THE ONE THAT USES IT.

WELL, I FORGOT. WELL, YOU ALWAYS FORGET.

I DO NOT. YES, YOU DO.

YOU FORGOT YOUR GOOSEDOWN PILLOW.

YOU FORGET EVERYTHING.

I DO NOT. YES, YOU DO.

YOU FORGOT MY BIRTHDAY, YOU FORGOT OUR ANNIVERSARY...

WHAT'S THAT GOT TO DO WITH MY GOOSEDOWN PILLOW?

WELL, IT JUST SHOWS HOW YOU ARE -- YOU ALWAYS FORGET.

I DO NOT ALWAYS FORGET.

IF I HAVE TOLD YOU ONCE

I HAVE TOLD YOU A THOUSAND TIMES...

WHY DON'T WE TAKE THIS UP IN THE MORNING

WHEN WE'VE ALL GOT SOME REST?

BOYS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP?

WE WANNA LISTEN.

Nora: THERE'S NOTHING TO LISTEN TO

SO JUST GO ON BACK TO BED.

AW, GEE.

DID YOU BOYS HEAR YOUR MOTHER?

IF I HAVE TO GET OUT OF THIS BED...

FOR YOUR INFORMATION, I FORGOT OUR ANNIVERSARY

BECAUSE THE FOREMAN SENT ME AROUND

LOOKING FOR A SPINDLE WRENCH

JUST AT QUITTING TIME.

WE'LL SAY NO MORE ABOUT IT.

ANDY HAS TO GET HIS REST.

BUT YOU DO FORGET. SLEEP WELL.

THAT'S JUST LIKE HER.

SHE ALWAYS STARTS A FIGHT AT A TIME LIKE THIS

JUST WHEN I'M RELAXED.

IT'S LIKE SHE PLANS IT.

WELL, I WOULDN'T WORRY ABOUT IT, OLLIE, IF I WAS YOU.

EXCEPTIN' NOW I'M NOT GONNA SLEEP A WINK.

SHE'S GOT ME ALL ON EDGE.

SHE ALWAYS DOES THAT.

WELL, WHY DON'T YOU READ A LITTLE BIT?

I ALWAYS FIND THAT WHEN I CAN'T SLEEP

IF I READ A LITTLE PIECE OUT OF A MAGAZINE

I JUST DOZE RIGHT OFF.

HERE'S A...

HERE'S A NICE PIECE, OLLIE, ON SKIING.

NOW, YOU JUST READ...

MORNING, AUNT BEE.

GOOD MORNING, ANDY.

WELL, HOW'D YOU SLEEP?

WELL, HALF THE NIGHT, HE HAD HIS ARM IN MY MOUTH.

THE OTHER HALF, HE WAS DREAMING HE WAS RIDING A BICYCLE.

ALL IN ALL, I'D SAY

IT'S ONE OF THE MOST ACTIVE NIGHTS

I EVER SPENT.

I'M SORRY.

I GUESS WE'RE ALL A LITTLE KEYED UP

BUT IT'LL ALL WORK OUT.

THEY'RE JUST HERE FOR A WEEKEND.

YEAH. I GUESS WE CAN STAND OUR LOVED ONES THAT LONG.

Ollie: WHERE IS EVERYBODY?

OH, HERE IN THE KITCHEN, OLLIE.

GOOD MORNING, BEE. GOOD MORNING, NORA.

GOOD MORNING, ANDY.

HI, AUNT NORA.

WELL, OLLIE, I HEAR YOU SLEPT VERY WELL.

NOT A WINK, NOT A WINK.

STRANGE BED, DIDN'T HAVE MY GOOSEDOWN PILLOW.

WELL, YOU'LL SLEEP BETTER TONIGHT.

THIS VISIT HAS BEEN SO WONDERFUL FOR ALL OF US.

ANDY AND I WERE JUST SAYING

THE SAME THING, WEREN'T WE, ANDY?

YES, WE WERE SAYIN'... WHAT A FINE VISIT IT'S BEEN

AND WHAT A SHAME THAT IT HAS TO BE SO SHORT.

YES, IT IS.

HEY...HEY...HEY...

YOU KNOW, OLLIE...?

NORA, YOU THINKIN' WHAT I'M THINKIN'?

IF YOU CAN SPARE THE TIME.

SURE, I CAN.

ANDY...YOU KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO?

WHAT?

I AM GONNA TAKE MY SICK LEAVE NOW.

I'LL CALL THE PLANT.

Nora: THEN WE CAN STAY FOR A WHOLE WEEK.

WE CAN STAY, BEE!

OH...ISN'T THAT NICE...ANDY?

SWELL.

OH, HI, OLLIE. COME ON IN.

YES, SIR, PRETTY NICE.

YOU HAVE GOT IT MADE.

YES, SIR, YOU HAVE BEAT THE GAME.

WELL, I CAN'T COMPLAIN.

YEP. YOU GOT IT MADE.

SITTING AROUND, LOOKING IMPORTANT...

EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, A LITTLE THRILL.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL, OLLIE.

NO STRAIN.

YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS DID WANT TO BE A LAWMAN.

OLLIE, YOU BETTER GIVE ME THE RIFLE.

WELL, AIN'T YOU FORGETTING SOMETHING, ANDY?

I'M THE FELLER THAT SHOWED YOU

HOW TO SHOOT YOUR FIRST .22.

WELL, I BETTER PUT IT BACK IN THE RACK.

SHERIFF?

OH, HI, MR. MUNDT. COME ON IN.

I, UH, JUST COME BY TO PAY A TRAFFIC TICKET.

BARNEY GIVE IT TO ME ABOUT THREE DAYS AGO.

OH, YEAH.

WHAT'S HE IN FOR?

I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT, OLLIE.

THERE'S COFFEE IN THE BACK.

OH, HAD PLENTY.

WHAT I OWE YA? HE'LL TELL YOU WHEN HE'S READY!

OLLIE, PLEASE, I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.

UH, LET'S SEE.

"PARKING IN FRONT OF A FIRE HYDRANT."

THAT'LL BE $2.00, MR. MUNDT.

AH, I'M SORRY ABOUT THAT, ANDY. I JUST...

SUPPOSIN' THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WANTED TO USE THAT FIRE HYDRANT THEN.

THEY COULDN'T.

WHO IS THIS MAN, ANYWAY, SHERIFF?

WELL...

I AM THE SHERIFF'S UNCLE, THAT'S WHO I AM --

THE MAN THAT TAUGHT HIM EVERYTHING HE KNOWS.

AND FOR YOUR ATTITUDE ALONE

YOU OUGHT TO BE HIT FOR AT LEAST $15.00.

FOLKS THINK THEY CAN GET AWAY

WITH ANYTHING AROUND HERE.

HEY, OLLIE, I GOT A REAL GOOD IDEA.

THERE'S A BRAND-NEW TROUT POND NAMED HARRY'S POND.

IT'S ABOUT TWO MILES EAST ON MILES ROAD.

NOW, YOU KNOW WHERE MILES ROAD IS.

THEY'LL RENT YOU A ROD AND EVERYTHING.

WHY DON'T YOU TAKE A DRIVE UP THERE?

WELL, YOU SURE YOU WON'T NEED ME HERE?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE ON VACATION.

YOU'RE RIGHT. YOU CAN HANDLE THIS, CAN'T YOU?

OH, SURE.

FIREBUG.

HERE'S YOUR RECEIPT, MR. MUNDT.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH HIM? IS HE A NUT?

OLLIE!

HEY, OLLIE! OLLIE, I MEANT YOUR OWN CAR!

WELL, HELLO, ANDY.

FLOYD, YOU GOT YOUR CAR WITH YOU TODAY?

NO. SHE'S IN WALLY'S SHOP TODAY.

OH, THE POOR DEAR'S IN TERRIBLE SHAPE.

OH, THAT'S A SHAME.

HER TRANSMISSION,

HER SECOND GEAR HAD A WHINE LIKE A CRYING CHILD...

A WHINING CHILD.

OH.

WALLY OPENED UP HER GEAR BOX

AND TOOK ONE LOOK, AND... CLOSED IT RIGHT UP.

THANKS. I'LL TRY SOMETHING ELSE.

WOULD YOU CARE FOR A HAIRCUT?

NO THANKS, FLOYD.

YES, OPERATOR, THAT'S RIGHT.

LAKE CHARLES, 439-7123.

I'LL HOLD.

AUNT NORA, AUNT NORA,

I GOT TO USE THE PHONE RIGHT AWAY.

OH, Shh, Shh, Shh. UH, RACINE?

NORA. YES, DEAR, WE'RE HERE. UH-HUH.

AUNT NORA...

YEAH. RIGHT HERE IN MAYBERRY.

AUNT -- AUNT NORA...

AUNT NORA, THIS IS AN EMERGENCY.

YEAH, WELL, GUESS WHO JUST WALKED IN, RACINE.

HIMSELF, HIS GORGEOUS SELF...

AUNT NORA...

...MR. RIGHT. MM-HMM, YEAH.

YES, HE'S HERE RIGHT NOW.

UH-HUH. WELL, JUST A MINUTE.

I'LL LET YOU TALK WITH HIM.

NO...

IT'S RACINE TYLER, MY FRIEND BACK HOME.

TALK WITH HER.

NOT NOW, AUNT NORA. I GOT TOO MUCH TO DO.

IT'LL ONLY TAKE A MINUTE.

OLLIE TOOK THE SQUAD CAR...

I WANT YOUR VOICES TO MEET.

OH, TALK WITH HER.

I'VE GOT TO GET ON THE PHONE...

Shh! TALK WITH HER.

HELLO? LOOK, MISS, UH...

RACINE. ...RACINE.

LOOK, MISS RACINE, I-I'VE GOT TO USE THE PHONE FOR A...

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. YOU HAVE A NICE VOICE, TOO.

LOOK, MISS RACINE,

I'M RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF AN EMERGENCY...

YES, MA'AM. YES, MA'AM, I'M A SHERIFF.

Y-YES. POINTED AND SILVER.

LOOK, MISS RACINE,

I'VE GOT TO USE THE PHONE FOR A BUSINESS CALL.

NOW, P-PERHAPS WE COULD TALK SOME OTHER TIME.

YES, THANK YOU.

I-I'D LOVE TO DRIVE YOUR BAKERY TRUCK SOMETIME.

YES, GOOD...GOODBYE.

OH, MY!

SARAH, GET ME HARRY'S POND, RIGHT AWAY.

OH, I KNEW YOU TWO WOULD HIT IT OFF.

SO MUCH IN COMMON.

HARRY? SHERIFF TAYLOR.

LOOK, HARRY, MY UNCLE'S ON HIS WAY OUT THERE

WITH THE SQUAD CAR.

WHEN HE GETS THERE, WILL YOU SEND HIM RIGHT BACK?

HEY, HARRY, TELL HIM NOT TO MESS WITH THE SIREN.

RIGHT. THANKS, HARRY.

YOU KNOW, WHAT DELIGHTED ME WAS

THAT YOU HAD SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT

AND RIGHT OFF THE BAT, TOO.

NOW, THAT'S THE REAL TEST.

LOOK, AUNT NORA, YOU DON'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND.

AT THIS TIME I'M NOT INTERESTED...

NOW, ANDY

YOU'VE BEEN A WANDERING SPIDER TOO LONG.

NOW, IT'S TIME THAT YOU BECAME HAPPILY ENTANGLED

IN THE SILKEN WEB OF MATRIMONY.

OH, UH, YOU WANT SOME OF THE PAPER?

I JUST WANT TO SEE THE SPORTS PAGE.

I WANT TO SEE HOW THE MAYBERRY BEARS

MADE OUT LAST NIGHT.

We have received a report from Mihauken, South Carolina.

Authorities at the state prison there

report that three members of the notorious Felch brothers gang

have escaped.

Their escape was ingeniously conceived.

They used a homemade gun

later revealed to have been carved out of soap.

They are armed now, however

having relieved two guards of their weapons.

That concludes our news report at this hour.

WHAT DO YOU DO IN A CASE LIKE THAT?

NOTHIN', USUALLY.

WHEN THEY BREAK OUT OF MIHAUKEN

THEY GENERALLY HEAD FOR THE COAST.

GOOD THING THEY'RE NOT HEADED THIS WAY

HUH, ANDY?

WE'D TAKE CARE OF 'EM, HUH?

GEE, PAW, WOULD YOU REALLY CHASE THE CROOKS?

SURE. IF THEY HEADED THIS WAY

WHY, ANDY AND ME WOULD TAKE CARE OF THEM

IN TWO WINKS, HUH?

YEP.

I'M GOING TO MAKE MY ROUNDS.

EXCUSE ME, OLLIE.

YOU WON'T BE NEEDING THE PATROL CAR FOR ANYTHING, WILL YOU?

NO. GO AHEAD. OKAY.

SEE YOU, PAW.

HELLO? OH, YES, SIR. THEY DID?

CAUGHT BOTH OF 'EM, HUH? OH, GOOD.

THANKS FOR LETTING ME KNOW.

I WAS STANDIN' BY

BUT I FIGURED YOU'D CALL ME IF THEY WAS HEADED THIS WAY.

RIGHT. THANKS.

HELLO? OH, HELLO, ANDY.

YES, OLLIE'S HERE.

I'll put him on.

HEY, OLLIE? I GOT GREAT NEWS.

YOU KNOW THOSE TWO ESCAPED CONVICTS

WE HEARD ABOUT ON THE RADIO?

I JUST GOT A CALL FROM THE SHERIFF OVER IN MT. PILOT

AND THEY'VE BEEN SEEN IN THIS AREA.

YOU MEAN, REAL CLOSE BY?

YEAH, JUST ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN.

LISTEN, I'M GOING AFTER THEM, BUT I'M GONNA NEED SOME HELP.

I'LL THROW AN EXTRA RIFLE IN THE SQUAD CAR

AND COME BY FOR YOU.

I'LL BE THERE IN A FEW MINUTES.

NOW YOU YOUNG 'UNS GET ON IN THAT CAR.

OH... COME ON, LET'S GO!

I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO STAY A WHILE.

ARE YOU SURE YOU LEFT ON THE GAS AT HOME?

POSITIVE. I TURNED IT ON FOR THE COFFEE

AND FORGOT TO TURN IT OFF.

NOW, YOU KNOW WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN NEXT.

THAT COFFEE WILL BOIL OVER AND PUT OUT THE FLAME.

FIRST THING YOU KNOW, BOOM!

NOW, COME ON, LET'S GO.

AT LEAST WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO SAVE THE FURNITURE.

WELL, I'M SURE I TURNED IT OFF.

WELL, WHEN IN DOUBT, LET SAFETY BE THE BYWORD.

THAT RADIO SHORTS OUT, THE HOUSE WILL CATCH ON FIRE.

YOU LEFT THE RADIO ON, TOO?

HUH?

YEAH, RADIO. RADIO AND GAS, RADIO AND GAS.

OH, MEN, MEN...

BYE-BYE, BEE.

OH, NOW SAY GOODBYE TO ANDY FOR US.

I WILL.

NOW, CAREFUL, OLLIE.

OLLIE, OLLIE, DON'T YOU RUSH YOURSELF.

TAKE YOUR TIME.

GET ON IN THAT CAR!

I'LL CALL YOU LATER.

I'LL CALL YOU THE MINUTE I GET HOME.

BYE, AUNT NORA. BYE, BRUCE.

I'LL SEE YOU, ROGER. BYE. BYE.

NIGHT, PAW. NIGHT, AUNT BEE.

GOOD NIGHT, OPIE. NIGHT, OPE.

SEE YOU IN THE MORNING. DON'T LET ANYTHING GET YA.

SWEET DREAMS.

OH, BOY.

KIND OF NICE BEING BY OURSELVES, HUH?

MORE RESTFUL.

YOU KNOW, I LOVE MY SISTER,

BUT SHE'S MIGHTY BOSSY IN THE KITCHEN.

MM.

AND THE BOYS. YOU KNOW, I'M SURPRISED AT OLLIE AND NORA,

LETTING THEM BE AS WILD AS THEY ARE.

MM.

I DON'T BELIEVE I COULD HAVE STOOD IT

IF THEY HAD STAYED ANOTHER WEEK.

YOU'RE KIND OF GLAD IT'S OVER, TOO, HUH?

YES, I AM.

MUCH MORE PEACEFUL THIS WAY. I HAVE TO ADMIT IT.

HELLO?

OH, NORA!

YES, I CAN HEAR YOU!

HOW WAS THE TRIP HOME?

OH, GOOD. WONDERFUL.

YOU KNOW, WE WERE JUST SAYING THE SAME THING?

HOW MUCH WE ENJOYED SEEING ALL OF YOU.

OH, ISN'T IT A SHAME THAT WE DON'T GET TOGETHER MORE OFTEN?

NO, THERE'S NO REASON IN THE WORLD.

NOW, LOOK, IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY PLANS FOR THE HOLIDAYS,

I INSIST THAT YOU COME,

AND THIS TIME DEFINITELY PLAN ON STAYING A WEEK.

NO WORRIES. MY PLEASURE.
