The Red Scalpin program brought to you by Cool

00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:12.160
Cigarettes. Just smoke a cool and you will see

00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:15.980
how refreshing cools can be. Switch from hot

00:00:15.980 --> 00:00:19.019
to cool cigarettes for that clean cool taste

00:00:19.019 --> 00:00:21.519
in your mouth. As Willie the Penguin says, smoke

00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:41.280
cool, smoke cool, smoke cool. The Cool Cigarette

00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:43.520
Program starring Red Skelton, Dave Rose and his

00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:45.579
orchestra, our singing star Anita Ellis, Verna

00:00:45.579 --> 00:00:47.420
Felton, Lorraine Tattle, Pat McGahan and yours

00:00:47.420 --> 00:00:57.359
truly Rod O 'Connor. From MGM Studios comes the

00:00:57.359 --> 00:00:59.840
star of The Cool Cigarette Program, Red Skelton.

00:01:10.349 --> 00:01:12.230
Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen, for

00:01:12.230 --> 00:01:14.590
your spontaneous applause. It's better than the

00:01:14.590 --> 00:01:18.370
way we rehearsed it, believe me. How are you?

00:01:18.530 --> 00:01:20.750
Well, Roddy's finally arrived. You mean our last

00:01:20.750 --> 00:01:23.989
show of the season. No, the car I ordered. But

00:01:23.989 --> 00:01:26.329
I waited a long time for a delivery on it, boy.

00:01:27.129 --> 00:01:28.670
But now that you've got your car, wasn't it worth

00:01:28.670 --> 00:01:30.890
waiting for? No, I don't think Stanley's steamers

00:01:30.890 --> 00:01:36.019
are so nice anymore. You know, I felt a little

00:01:36.019 --> 00:01:37.819
sad about this being our last show of the season,

00:01:37.939 --> 00:01:39.359
Red. Yeah, me too. I got to think, and we won't

00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:41.159
be working together after tonight. I felt kind

00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:43.099
of bad. Oh, but Red, I'll be back next fall.

00:01:43.140 --> 00:01:47.099
That's why I feel so bad. Red, what are you gonna

00:01:47.099 --> 00:01:48.819
do this time? I'm gonna take it easy. I'm gonna

00:01:48.819 --> 00:01:50.439
take the family and motor back to the Middle

00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:51.900
West. I'm gonna hike a couple hundred miles,

00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:54.239
sleep in sleeping bags. If nature, boy, will

00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:58.340
give his permission. You know, I think everybody

00:01:58.340 --> 00:02:00.079
needs a rest. That's why I'm going off the air,

00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:04.920
to give my listeners a rest. Both of them. Well,

00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:06.920
who's our summer replacement? Sigmund Romberg

00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:08.819
and his beautiful music and John Howard's gonna

00:02:08.819 --> 00:02:11.319
sing with him. But how about jokes? Well, the

00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:12.960
sponsor figures he's gone this long without him.

00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:18.039
Why should he change? Well, what are you gonna

00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:20.139
do on your vacation? Well, truthfully, I think

00:02:20.139 --> 00:02:21.939
I'm gonna work around in the garden, raise a

00:02:21.939 --> 00:02:23.699
little garden to help fight inflation, you know?

00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:25.819
Now, why do you say that? You know anything about

00:02:25.819 --> 00:02:28.259
raising a garden? Do I know anything about a

00:02:28.259 --> 00:02:31.180
garden? Me, a guy from Indiana? Do I know anything

00:02:31.180 --> 00:02:38.389
about a garden? I can learn. Well, I hope you've

00:02:38.389 --> 00:02:40.229
learned something from last year. I'll never

00:02:40.229 --> 00:02:42.310
forget those pumpkin seeds you planted. Yeah,

00:02:42.310 --> 00:02:43.830
I found out they grow better if you take them

00:02:43.830 --> 00:02:47.310
out of the package. You know, anything grows

00:02:47.310 --> 00:02:49.509
out here in California, though. I dropped a little

00:02:49.509 --> 00:02:51.710
piece of paper in with the seed, and the next

00:02:51.710 --> 00:02:54.069
morning in the very same spot was a newspaper.

00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:10.099
Yes, we all like to go out to the ballgame. But

00:03:10.099 --> 00:03:11.819
do you know something baseball is responsible

00:03:11.819 --> 00:03:14.580
for, friends? Well, for one thing, baseball accounts

00:03:14.580 --> 00:03:17.060
for a big jump in cigarette smoking. There's

00:03:17.060 --> 00:03:18.819
something about sitting in the stands and cheering

00:03:18.819 --> 00:03:21.159
those home team rallies that makes you reach

00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.659
for a cigarette. Then another, and another. Pretty

00:03:24.659 --> 00:03:26.419
soon, you're apt to find your mouth and throat

00:03:26.419 --> 00:03:29.759
have begun to feel all dry and parched. And that's

00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:33.250
the time to switch from hots to cools. For no

00:03:33.250 --> 00:03:35.610
matter how steadily you've been smoking, one

00:03:35.610 --> 00:03:38.509
puff of a Kool and you'll really enjoy a cigarette

00:03:38.509 --> 00:03:41.009
again. You'll find that the distinctive flavor

00:03:41.009 --> 00:03:43.650
of Kool's gives you a refreshing feeling that

00:03:43.650 --> 00:03:46.629
just can't be matched by ordinary hot cigarettes.

00:03:47.550 --> 00:03:49.849
Kool's, America's most refreshing cigarettes,

00:03:50.270 --> 00:03:53.449
are specially blended from smooth, ripe tobaccos.

00:03:53.889 --> 00:03:56.229
Kool's are mild and mellow, make your throat

00:03:56.229 --> 00:03:59.590
feel cool and clear. So next time you get that

00:03:59.590 --> 00:04:02.259
parched dry feeling in your mouth, Switch to

00:04:02.259 --> 00:04:06.039
cools for that clean, cool taste in your mouth.

00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:13.120
Here's our lovely Anita Ellis to sing. What are

00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:35.939
you singing, dear? All the things you are. The

00:04:35.939 --> 00:04:45.379
promised kiss of springtime That makes the lonely

00:04:45.379 --> 00:05:01.699
winter seem long You are the breathless hush

00:05:01.699 --> 00:05:10.430
of evening That trembles on the brink of a lovely

00:05:10.430 --> 00:05:24.370
song You are the angel glow That lights a star

00:05:24.370 --> 00:06:40.000
The dearest things I know Are what you Friends,

00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:42.319
I guess the first thing a performer learns in

00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:45.079
show business is how to say goodbye. We all know

00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:47.139
that we must make changes from time to time,

00:06:47.379 --> 00:06:49.699
but it's tough when you have to say goodbye to

00:06:49.699 --> 00:06:51.779
folks like our present sponsors, the Brown &

00:06:51.779 --> 00:06:54.259
Williamson Tobacco Company. The success I've

00:06:54.259 --> 00:06:56.540
had in radio is entirely due to their friendship

00:06:56.540 --> 00:06:59.779
and their helping hand and faith. Ten years ago,

00:06:59.819 --> 00:07:01.939
they gave me my first coast -to -coast broadcast,

00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:04.139
and during those years when things have gone

00:07:04.139 --> 00:07:06.379
wrong, the show wasn't as good as we'd wanted

00:07:06.379 --> 00:07:09.050
it to be. They were the first ones to say, well,

00:07:09.110 --> 00:07:11.850
it'll be all right next week. We're very grateful

00:07:11.850 --> 00:07:14.209
for their friendship. They're responsible for

00:07:14.209 --> 00:07:15.990
all the wonderful things that we have today.

00:07:16.550 --> 00:07:19.149
I would also like to thank the Russell MC's advertising

00:07:19.149 --> 00:07:22.189
agency, our engineer, Art Burley, our producer,

00:07:22.329 --> 00:07:25.050
Keith McCloud, the sound effect boys, Fred Cole

00:07:25.050 --> 00:07:27.949
and Jack Robinson, and the best cast and radio.

00:07:28.269 --> 00:07:30.689
Also, Edna Brizeghi and her writing staff, Benny

00:07:30.689 --> 00:07:33.350
Friedman, Johnny Murray, Dick McKnight, Harvey

00:07:33.350 --> 00:07:36.009
Helm. for making this a wonderful season. And

00:07:36.009 --> 00:07:38.290
most of all, we would like to thank you folks

00:07:38.290 --> 00:07:40.930
for tuning us in. Believe me, when we come back

00:07:40.930 --> 00:07:43.670
on the air next fall with our new sponsor, Procter

00:07:43.670 --> 00:07:46.250
& Gamble, we'll try harder than ever to win your

00:07:46.250 --> 00:07:59.110
approval. Thank you. Tonight, a new feature.

00:07:59.529 --> 00:08:05.459
People you'll meet sooner or later. Finally got

00:08:05.459 --> 00:08:10.240
it out of hawk, huh? If you were a motorcycle

00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:12.720
officer, sooner or later you'd meet this type

00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:22.620
of driver. Alright, point out my car, start the

00:08:22.620 --> 00:08:24.420
motor and put me behind the wheel and I'll drive

00:08:24.420 --> 00:08:29.490
you home. I think you should drive. Oh, stop

00:08:29.490 --> 00:08:31.790
quibbling and lighting the cigarette for me,

00:08:31.970 --> 00:08:33.830
will ya? That's not a cigarette in your mouth.

00:08:33.870 --> 00:08:37.289
That's your tongue sticking out. It's a cigarette

00:08:37.289 --> 00:08:40.610
and lighter, will ya? All right, you asked for

00:08:40.610 --> 00:08:46.710
it. Well, now you convinced? The cat must have

00:08:46.710 --> 00:08:50.289
got my tongue. I expect me to talk with a mouth

00:08:50.289 --> 00:08:52.970
full of ashes. Come on, get in. No, don't stand

00:08:52.970 --> 00:08:54.950
there. Get in, get in, get in. Well, what's the

00:08:54.950 --> 00:08:58.360
matter? Don't you open the door for a lady? Somebody

00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:05.139
coming with us? And you used to be so romantic,

00:09:05.379 --> 00:09:07.840
Willie. I'll never forget the night we were married.

00:09:08.340 --> 00:09:10.980
You carried me across the threshold. Well, we'll

00:09:10.980 --> 00:09:13.200
even it up tonight. You can carry me across.

00:09:14.779 --> 00:09:17.440
Now close the door. Close the door. I'm going

00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:18.940
to start the car and I'll watch it because I

00:09:18.940 --> 00:09:21.980
got a pretty fast pickup. A pretty fast pickup.

00:09:30.860 --> 00:09:33.179
I am using it. How do you think I'm beating the

00:09:33.179 --> 00:09:37.279
pedestrians off with? Now you're driving on the

00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:39.700
left side of the road. I know I'm driving on

00:09:39.700 --> 00:09:41.360
the left side of the road. That's so the cars

00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:44.899
won't sneak up behind me. And bumper riders,

00:09:45.139 --> 00:09:48.299
ooh, they make me so nervous. Slow down, Willie.

00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:51.659
There's a dip in the road. Are you referring

00:09:51.659 --> 00:09:57.200
to me, old girl? This car can take it, though.

00:09:57.279 --> 00:10:01.679
You'll watch it now. Hold on. Say, you get more

00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:03.139
freight there with your head sticking out the

00:10:03.139 --> 00:10:07.519
top, don't you? You can read Honest John's ads

00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:15.580
better, too. Hey, are we on fire? No. Should

00:10:15.580 --> 00:10:19.299
we call an ambulance? No. Well, then it must

00:10:19.299 --> 00:10:23.460
be a cop coming up. Yep, there he is. Look, now,

00:10:23.620 --> 00:10:25.840
he's the cop, so let me handle it. You keep your

00:10:25.840 --> 00:10:28.799
big mouth shut, will ya? My mouth isn't big.

00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:32.440
Oh, no. Every time you yawn, your ears disappear.

00:10:34.460 --> 00:10:37.019
Pardon me for intruding, sir. What can I do for

00:10:37.019 --> 00:10:38.960
you, bub? What can I do for you? Well, I was

00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:40.600
just curious to know if you were speeding or

00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:46.600
buzzing the neighborhood. May I see... I'm sorry

00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:48.759
I was speeding, officer, but you see, I gotta

00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:51.139
hurry to the hospital. You see, the big moment

00:10:51.139 --> 00:10:53.909
has arrived. Your wife's gonna have a baby? No,

00:10:53.990 --> 00:10:55.669
she's gonna beat my brains out. I thought we'd

00:10:55.669 --> 00:10:59.889
better go to the hospital. Well, let's see your

00:10:59.889 --> 00:11:02.090
license. License, yeah, here you are, here you

00:11:02.090 --> 00:11:04.070
are. What's that license with the skull and crossbones

00:11:04.070 --> 00:11:07.370
on it? Oh, that's my marriage license. Justice

00:11:07.370 --> 00:11:09.210
of Peace stamped that on there and then they

00:11:09.210 --> 00:11:11.649
saw my wife. Come on, come on, give me your driver's

00:11:11.649 --> 00:11:16.870
license. I don't have one. I guess that's some

00:11:16.870 --> 00:11:19.919
shit, don't it? I don't have a license. So you

00:11:19.919 --> 00:11:21.759
don't have a license? No. A wait till the judge

00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:23.259
hears about this. He knows about it. He took

00:11:23.259 --> 00:11:33.340
it away from me. You know, you look permitted

00:11:33.340 --> 00:11:35.720
to me. Do you have a police record? No, we haven't

00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:40.620
recorded since Patrillo put the ban on. What

00:11:40.620 --> 00:11:44.080
do you do for a living? I'm a masseur in a bakery.

00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:49.720
I take the kinks out of lopsided pretzels. I'm

00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:53.879
proud. That ain't even there. Now please, be

00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:56.480
polite. Look, I'm trying to be polite, dear.

00:11:56.580 --> 00:11:59.059
I want you to be proud of my good manners, dearest.

00:11:59.419 --> 00:12:02.259
So while I'm talking to this bum, keep your mouth

00:12:02.259 --> 00:12:09.340
shut! Is this your wife? That's my wife. You

00:12:09.340 --> 00:12:13.759
want it? I'll have to give you a ticket. What's

00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:16.139
your name? Willie Lump Lump. Where were you coming

00:12:16.139 --> 00:12:18.980
from? A party. Did you have a good time? I must

00:12:18.980 --> 00:12:23.019
have. They threw me out. I see it was a formal

00:12:23.019 --> 00:12:25.299
affair. Mm -hmm. It was a formal affair. You're

00:12:25.299 --> 00:12:30.100
wearing tails. Just a minute, you. What are you

00:12:30.100 --> 00:12:34.279
trying to do? Make a monkey out of me? Where

00:12:34.279 --> 00:12:36.600
was the party? Well, you know where Wilster Boulevard

00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:38.720
is? Yeah. You know where it crosses Figaro? Yeah.

00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:40.419
You know where Figaro goes on the eighth? Yeah.

00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:47.379
Well, go there and leave me alone. Look, stern

00:12:47.379 --> 00:12:53.379
old breath. Yeah? Where do you live? Ah, you're

00:12:53.379 --> 00:12:56.299
being rather forward, aren't you? We just met,

00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:58.860
after all. Go on, now, where do you live? I live

00:12:58.860 --> 00:13:00.539
with my wife. Where does she live? She lives

00:13:00.539 --> 00:13:03.700
with her mother. You both live with your wife's

00:13:03.700 --> 00:13:05.379
mother? Yeah, when we first married, we had a

00:13:05.379 --> 00:13:06.879
little quarrel, and my wife went home to her

00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:08.539
mother, and she forgot to let go of my neck.

00:13:10.159 --> 00:13:11.799
Now, you're asking for it, Bob. I'll have to

00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:14.200
take you down to the station. Oh, get your hands

00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:16.259
off of me. Maybe you don't know it, but I got

00:13:16.259 --> 00:13:18.799
an in with the chief of police. In fact, I was

00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.899
in for 30 days. You know, you broke about every

00:13:22.899 --> 00:13:24.740
traffic law in the books, speeding, no hand signals,

00:13:24.940 --> 00:13:26.080
weaving in and out of traffic, no headlights.

00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:28.600
You forgot that green light I ran through. Well,

00:13:28.740 --> 00:13:30.120
there's no law running through a green light,

00:13:30.259 --> 00:13:32.440
Bob. Okay, pick up the glass and we'll say no

00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:40.570
more about it. Let Willie go this time. Nothing

00:13:40.570 --> 00:13:42.570
doing. If I have anything to say about it, he'll

00:13:42.570 --> 00:13:44.190
be locked up in solitary confinement and eat

00:13:44.190 --> 00:13:46.710
nothing but bread and water. Oh, no. Let him

00:13:46.710 --> 00:13:48.730
go free so he can come home and live with mother

00:13:48.730 --> 00:13:51.309
and me. I'm sorry. The officer made the best

00:13:51.309 --> 00:13:56.389
deal. It's for your own sake, Bob. It's the only

00:13:56.389 --> 00:13:59.549
way you guys can learn. Oh, Willie. All you ever

00:13:59.549 --> 00:14:02.629
do is disgrace me and yourself. And you're a

00:14:02.629 --> 00:14:05.730
good man when you want to be. When you're good,

00:14:05.809 --> 00:14:11.909
you're the best man in the world, Willie. and

00:14:11.909 --> 00:14:17.149
whistle blows six o 'clock. Get up off your knees.

00:14:17.309 --> 00:14:19.389
Stop your mascara from running. Somebody will

00:14:19.389 --> 00:14:23.350
think you're Al Jolson. Look, officer, I was

00:14:23.350 --> 00:14:26.129
wrong. I'm sorry I oughta lock every guy up like

00:14:26.129 --> 00:14:28.269
me that drives like this. Well, that's better.

00:14:28.370 --> 00:14:31.190
Yeah, lock me up. I'm no good. You seem like

00:14:31.190 --> 00:14:33.549
a nice couple, and I will forget the ticket.

00:14:33.669 --> 00:14:35.769
Here, give it back to me. Now get going, but

00:14:35.769 --> 00:14:40.129
take it easy. Oh, what do you say? Indian giver.

00:14:57.520 --> 00:15:00.860
When other brands have ceased to please Round

00:15:00.860 --> 00:15:04.899
up coups for smoking ease Switch from hot to

00:15:04.899 --> 00:15:07.679
cool cigarettes When your mouth feels hot and

00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:09.679
dry from smoking too many ordinary cigarettes

00:15:09.980 --> 00:15:13.299
That's the time to light up a cool. Cool specially

00:15:13.299 --> 00:15:16.480
blended finer tobaccos bring back long -lost

00:15:16.480 --> 00:15:18.980
smoking pleasure. And no matter how many cools

00:15:18.980 --> 00:15:22.679
you smoke, you'll always enjoy their cool, refreshing

00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:26.679
flavor. Switch from hots to cool cigarettes for

00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:31.980
that clean, cool taste in your mouth. Just smoke

00:15:31.980 --> 00:15:35.340
a cool and you will see how refreshing cools

00:15:35.340 --> 00:15:39.250
can be. Switch from hots to... Cool cigarettes

00:15:39.250 --> 00:15:42.309
for that clean, cool taste in your mouth. As

00:15:42.309 --> 00:15:45.769
Willie the Penguin says, smoke cool, smoke cool,

00:15:45.889 --> 00:15:55.889
smoke cool. Dave Rose and the Cool Cigarette

00:15:55.889 --> 00:18:34.460
Orchestra play his own, String Capation. And

00:18:34.460 --> 00:18:37.319
I lost, you know. Namor lost her as soon as the

00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:39.220
harness broke, you know. Even me muzzle came

00:18:39.220 --> 00:18:43.119
off. I wonder where she could be. Oh, she said

00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:44.759
she's going to buy a hair brush, and that's when

00:18:44.759 --> 00:18:47.779
I got lost. Oh, there's a lady over there by

00:18:47.779 --> 00:18:50.019
the window. I'll go ask her if she seen me, Namor.

00:18:51.380 --> 00:18:53.740
Pardon me, lady. Have you seen me, Namor? She's

00:18:53.740 --> 00:18:56.160
a nice little lady with gray hair and just...

00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:59.559
Lady, I'm speaking to you. Why don't you speak

00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:04.579
back? Hey, why don't you move? Boy, you look

00:19:04.579 --> 00:19:06.859
stiff like Gramp does when he's out all night.

00:19:08.460 --> 00:19:10.460
Okay, you don't want to talk to me? Act snooty

00:19:10.460 --> 00:19:12.859
if you want to. Go and be snooty. Maybe I'll

00:19:12.859 --> 00:19:14.559
kick you in the sims you'll come to a little

00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:18.099
death. Well, you didn't have to go all to pieces.

00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:22.980
Look at that, arms and legs all over the place.

00:19:23.900 --> 00:19:26.759
What do I do? What do I do? They certainly don't

00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:34.660
make people like they used to. Why are you lost?

00:19:34.940 --> 00:19:40.720
Why don't you pay attention? Boy, if everybody's

00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:43.900
as dumb as you, I'll never be found again. Oh,

00:19:43.900 --> 00:19:47.660
I'm a Nemo. I'm lost. I won. Nemo! Yoo -hoo!

00:19:47.940 --> 00:19:52.000
You little stinkers lost! What's all this noise

00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:54.619
out here? This little boy is lost. I'll take

00:19:54.619 --> 00:19:56.259
charge. You're not going to charge me nothing.

00:19:56.519 --> 00:19:58.799
I didn't... Who are you anyhow? A store detective?

00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:00.720
That's right. How'd you guess? Well, you're the

00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:02.339
only guy walking through the store not buying

00:20:02.339 --> 00:20:03.859
anything. You don't look smart enough to be a

00:20:03.859 --> 00:20:07.859
shoplifter. I think we'd better take him into

00:20:07.859 --> 00:20:10.799
the office. Here, now. Come on. Has you seen

00:20:10.799 --> 00:20:13.279
my memo? No, but if you tell me where you got

00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:17.119
lost... No, if you tell me where you got lost,

00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:19.339
maybe I can find it. Well, I was on the second

00:20:19.339 --> 00:20:23.180
floor near the broken dish department. Oh, you

00:20:23.180 --> 00:20:25.039
must be mistaken, son. We don't have a broken

00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:30.960
dish department. You don't know me very well.

00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:35.339
It ought to be easy to find them. You just look

00:20:35.339 --> 00:20:37.259
for a bargain counter with a crowd around it

00:20:37.259 --> 00:20:38.839
and then watch somebody pooling for something

00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:40.839
somebody else wants and that'll be her. That'll

00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:43.119
be her. The other day she grabbed a dress, you

00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:44.900
know, and somebody else grabbed it at the same

00:20:44.900 --> 00:20:46.799
time. And the part she got looked pretty good

00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:51.099
on her. Oh, brother, I either get them like this

00:20:51.099 --> 00:20:56.130
or hungry. Uh, look, Sonny, uh... Do you know

00:20:56.130 --> 00:20:58.809
your name? Yes, I know my name. What is it? Well,

00:20:58.869 --> 00:21:00.470
the widow boys in the neighborhood call me Butch,

00:21:00.690 --> 00:21:02.289
and the widow girls call me Prince Charming.

00:21:02.670 --> 00:21:04.490
Until last week, I had my first fight, now the

00:21:04.490 --> 00:21:06.069
widow boys call me Prince Charming, and the widow

00:21:06.069 --> 00:21:11.670
girls don't call me no more. Well, tell me, do

00:21:11.670 --> 00:21:14.509
you know where you live? All intelligent children

00:21:14.509 --> 00:21:16.269
should know where they live. Yes, I don't know

00:21:16.269 --> 00:21:18.049
the exact address, but I live right next door

00:21:18.049 --> 00:21:19.750
to Gene Fowler, the man that wrote The Life of

00:21:19.750 --> 00:21:21.549
Jimmy Walker, you know. And where do they live?

00:21:21.630 --> 00:21:25.980
They moved out right after we moved in. Hey,

00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:27.799
Pat, maybe a bag of candy would get some information

00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:30.740
out of them. Yes, here, I've got some in my pocket.

00:21:30.900 --> 00:21:33.240
What is it like to you? My, isn't this delicious?

00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:34.839
Hey, what you eatin'? What you eatin'? What you

00:21:34.839 --> 00:21:36.460
eatin'? Candy. Now, I'll give you some if you

00:21:36.460 --> 00:21:38.359
tell me who you are. Kind of stale. I heard some

00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:51.119
Peter Iron drops. Okay, you give me a piece of

00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:53.079
candy and I'll tell you. I'll tell you. It's

00:21:53.079 --> 00:21:56.069
a deal. Here. All right. Fine, now who are you?

00:21:56.170 --> 00:21:58.430
I'm the widow boy that you just gave the candy

00:21:58.430 --> 00:22:06.210
to. Sucker, sucker. Why does this happen to me?

00:22:06.230 --> 00:22:08.190
Maybe I'm being punished for stealing that tie

00:22:08.190 --> 00:22:13.309
in the bargain basement. Look, Sonny, where's

00:22:13.309 --> 00:22:15.109
your mother? She's in Washington. She's trying

00:22:15.109 --> 00:22:17.450
to get a bill passed to make storks enemy aliens.

00:22:19.950 --> 00:22:27.569
She still thinks I'm a subversive act. What are

00:22:27.569 --> 00:22:32.089
these men doing to you? Or vice versa? Are you

00:22:32.089 --> 00:22:34.130
all right, Junior? Well, yes, barely. I got lost,

00:22:34.150 --> 00:22:35.849
and these two men were giving me a third degree

00:22:35.849 --> 00:22:37.809
like they does a murderer. They had lights in

00:22:37.809 --> 00:22:39.470
me face. They were going to beat me with black

00:22:39.470 --> 00:22:41.509
jacks. Oh, boy, some of them they were. Just

00:22:41.509 --> 00:22:44.269
for being lost? Yes. Why, how dare you? Yes,

00:22:44.289 --> 00:22:46.210
how dare you. How dare you intimidate my son?

00:22:46.210 --> 00:22:49.529
How dare you to imitate me? For two cents, I'd

00:22:49.529 --> 00:22:52.750
call my husband. Yes, and we knows what saloon

00:22:52.750 --> 00:23:01.079
he's into. Well, I'm very sorry, madam. I've

00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:03.059
made a terrible mistake, and I apologize for

00:23:03.059 --> 00:23:09.039
finding him. Oh. While you're in the store, why

00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:11.059
don't you visit our boys' department? We have

00:23:11.059 --> 00:23:13.900
a special on straight jackets today. Well, why

00:23:13.900 --> 00:23:16.480
don't you get yourself one? He knows me pretty

00:23:16.480 --> 00:23:18.339
well after all, don't he, huh? Well, now, come

00:23:18.339 --> 00:23:21.779
along, Junior. Okay. Goodbye, you imitation of

00:23:21.779 --> 00:23:28.450
Dick Tracy, you... Oh! We've got lots of shopping

00:23:28.450 --> 00:23:32.690
to do. Junior, stop dragging your feet. Well,

00:23:32.690 --> 00:23:35.190
I'm tired. Carry me now, or will you carry me?

00:23:35.230 --> 00:23:37.849
I'm tired. Well, I'm tired too. Well, you carry

00:23:37.849 --> 00:23:41.450
me. Well, I can't carry you. Goodness, you carry

00:23:41.450 --> 00:23:44.269
me now or I'm going to tell on you. You'll tell

00:23:44.269 --> 00:23:46.490
what? I'll tell everybody in this store all about

00:23:46.490 --> 00:23:48.829
you. You, the way you try to camouflage, you

00:23:48.829 --> 00:23:51.069
stuff with makeup and all of that. I tell them

00:23:51.069 --> 00:23:52.589
how old you are. I tell them that not only did

00:23:52.589 --> 00:23:55.309
you entertain the boys in the last war, but at

00:23:55.309 --> 00:24:00.490
Gettysburg too. Why, I did not! I'm not that

00:24:00.490 --> 00:24:04.329
old! Oh, no! No. Oh, you not, huh? No. Hey, Verna,

00:24:04.450 --> 00:24:05.869
President Lincoln has just finished his address.

00:24:06.029 --> 00:24:08.549
Good! Now I'll slap the boys with the new song,

00:24:08.910 --> 00:24:13.470
Battle Cry of Freedom! Yes! Do that! Oh, you

00:24:13.470 --> 00:24:17.849
punched your beads! Yes, I did! Hey, Nemo, either

00:24:17.849 --> 00:24:47.720
your beads busted or your teeth fell out! I've

00:24:47.720 --> 00:24:49.980
got some more shopping to do. Hey, now, are you

00:24:49.980 --> 00:24:54.200
mad at me? No, I'm not mad. No? You're so upset,

00:24:54.220 --> 00:24:58.240
I'm shaking. Really busted a gasket, didn't you,

00:24:58.279 --> 00:25:03.200
huh? I was nearly frantic searching for you,

00:25:03.299 --> 00:25:06.039
dear. And all the time you were lost, I kept

00:25:06.039 --> 00:25:09.819
imagining the most horrible things. Like sooner

00:25:09.819 --> 00:25:16.480
or later, I was bound to find you. She sure does

00:25:16.480 --> 00:25:18.680
love me, don't she, huh? You don't love me no

00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:19.819
more. Nobody loves me. Now that's all right.

00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:23.160
Now dry your tears. Nobody loves me. Yes, they

00:25:23.160 --> 00:25:26.339
do, dear. You don't love me. Now dry those tears,

00:25:26.500 --> 00:25:28.019
honey. No, just let them flow and then I won't

00:25:28.019 --> 00:25:31.180
have to wash my face tonight. You never gonna

00:25:31.180 --> 00:25:35.619
have a lollipop? No, suck your thumb. I am. But

00:25:35.619 --> 00:25:39.519
I don't like it. All the flavor is gone. Let's

00:25:39.519 --> 00:25:41.880
go into this department. Oh. I have to buy you

00:25:41.880 --> 00:25:43.480
some new shoes. Oh, give me some cowboy boots,

00:25:43.640 --> 00:25:44.720
huh? Some cowboy boots? Some cowboy boots, yeah.

00:25:44.720 --> 00:25:47.160
May I see? By the time you got me a new pair

00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:48.619
of shoes, anyhow, I've been wearing these things

00:25:48.619 --> 00:25:51.859
for a week now. My toes are sticking out, my

00:25:51.859 --> 00:25:55.150
feet have no privacy at all. Look at me toes

00:25:55.150 --> 00:25:57.009
when I walk. They just spread out like the wheels

00:25:57.009 --> 00:25:58.970
and spokes in a wagon wheel. Look at them. Well,

00:25:59.009 --> 00:26:01.289
I wonder why it is children wear out their shoes

00:26:01.289 --> 00:26:04.170
so fast. When I was your age, my parents didn't

00:26:04.170 --> 00:26:07.069
have to buy me new shoes every week. Naturally.

00:26:07.769 --> 00:26:09.470
Because when you were your age, your shoes hadn't

00:26:09.470 --> 00:26:13.230
been invented yet, couldn't they? Well, didn't

00:26:13.230 --> 00:26:14.950
everybody wear Mocketsons when you were your

00:26:14.950 --> 00:26:18.769

00:26:18.769 --> 00:26:24.109
bull when he was setting party. Come on now.

Okay. Uh -oh. Look, look, look, look. Here comes

00:26:26.490 --> 00:26:29.410
that detective running after the elevator. I

00:26:29.410 --> 00:26:31.349
wonder what would happen if I took my foot out

00:26:31.349 --> 00:26:36.309
just about right now. Oh, oh, oh! Just as I thought.

00:26:37.829 --> 00:26:40.049
Why did you make me miss that elevator? I thought

00:26:40.049 --> 00:26:42.150
you could get there quicker by air. I don't know.

00:26:43.029 --> 00:26:47.730

00:26:47.730 --> 00:26:50.859

Why don't you look around? You might see something

00:27:02.259 --> 00:27:06.079

00:27:06.079 --> 00:27:10.619
