1
00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: Now listen to Father Knows Best Transcribe, starring Robert Young

2
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:24,960
has Father Welcome to Springfield and another half hour visit

3
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,239
with the folks in the white frame house on Maple Street.

4
00:00:27,559 --> 00:00:30,879
Sit back and enjoy life with the Andersons Kathy, Bud, Betty,

5
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,799
Margaret and Jim as the head of this typical American

6
00:00:33,799 --> 00:00:37,840
household again sets out to prove that Father knows Best.

7
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,119
We'll join the Andersons in just a moment. You've probably

8
00:00:49,119 --> 00:00:52,320
heard it said that the Series E United States Savings

9
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,560
Bond has been improved. You probably know that it pays

10
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,000
back more money in less time than ever before. Now

11
00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:01,320
I'd like to tell you how that these improvements benefit you.

12
00:01:02,159 --> 00:01:05,439
Say you buy a thousand dollars bond, actually you know

13
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,200
you only pay seven hundred fifty dollars for it. Formally

14
00:01:09,239 --> 00:01:12,560
that bond would mature in ten years, But now the

15
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,680
improved Series E bond matures in nine years and eight months,

16
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,959
and it pays you four dollars for every three dollars

17
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,439
you invest. Also, you can hold the improved Series E

18
00:01:23,599 --> 00:01:27,959
Savings Bond beyond maturity and earn even further interest three

19
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:33,040
percent interest compounded semiannually for as long as ten additional years.

20
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,799
At that time, your original investment of seven hundred fifty

21
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:41,480
dollars is worth well over thirteen hundred dollars. That's an

22
00:01:41,519 --> 00:01:46,159
eighty percent return on your original investment. You'll feel more

23
00:01:46,200 --> 00:02:00,120
secure tomorrow if you buy Improve Series E savings bonds. Today,

24
00:02:02,439 --> 00:02:05,760
they say curiosity once killed a cat, a fate that's

25
00:02:05,799 --> 00:02:08,919
both proper and fitted. So why not give thanks for

26
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,280
the good fortune that let you pry yet not die

27
00:02:12,479 --> 00:02:15,199
like a kitten. The point we're trying to make is

28
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,960
that curiosity is not confined to cats. It's a human

29
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,240
frailty as well. And when it comes to frailties, well,

30
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,360
we doubt that you'll find anyone quite as human or

31
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:32,639
frail as our dear friends in Springfield and Anderson's like this, Margaret,

32
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,800
May I say that, in my long years as a

33
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,680
lover of good red beef, never has a more succulent

34
00:02:37,759 --> 00:02:39,240
morsel passed my lips.

35
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, dear what he said.

36
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:43,159
Speaker 3: He liked the.

37
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,719
Speaker 1: Roast beef all and now, as a fitting climax to

38
00:02:46,759 --> 00:02:50,120
an unforgettable repast, may I be favored with that delicious Napoleon.

39
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:55,199
Speaker 4: Of course, dear God, he wants his dessert all there

40
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:55,560
you are.

41
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: Thank you from the bottom of a happy and carefree heart.

42
00:02:58,479 --> 00:03:00,000
I say, thank you.

43
00:03:00,159 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 4: What's the matter with him?

44
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 3: He sold a big policy in this afternoon?

45
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,159
Speaker 5: Oh Robert Wagner?

46
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 2: What was that?

47
00:03:09,719 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 3: Dear?

48
00:03:10,439 --> 00:03:13,039
Speaker 4: Janey said it was Robert Wagner as.

49
00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:16,199
Speaker 1: If she knew, realizing full well, and I ought to

50
00:03:16,199 --> 00:03:20,000
have my brains examined. Still, I asked, what about Robert Wagner.

51
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 5: There isn't any reason at all for thinking that's who

52
00:03:23,319 --> 00:03:24,120
she meant?

53
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:25,319
Speaker 1: Who? Who meant?

54
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,439
Speaker 4: Luella Parsons?

55
00:03:27,439 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 2: Betty just a moment, dear.

56
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: These things must be approached delicately. We've got to sneak

57
00:03:32,159 --> 00:03:35,680
up on them or they fly away. Tell me, Betty,

58
00:03:35,719 --> 00:03:37,639
how's everything down around the gas works?

59
00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:41,879
Speaker 5: Father Janie Leggett said that Luella Parsons meant Robert Wagner

60
00:03:41,919 --> 00:03:44,080
in her column, and it's just ridiculous.

61
00:03:44,479 --> 00:03:46,319
Speaker 4: He never even goes to places like that.

62
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,919
Speaker 1: Oh, there you are, Margaret. You see everything's all cleared up.

63
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: That's nice.

64
00:03:50,479 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: May I have the cream and sugar? Please?

65
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:52,159
Speaker 3: Here you are?

66
00:03:52,319 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: Dad?

67
00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 4: Thank you, all right, Kathy, Now, let's not dawdle.

68
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:57,479
Speaker 2: Mommy and Daddy are in a hurry.

69
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 5: Yes, mommy, Oh, Why do they do things like that?

70
00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:05,120
Like what, dear put things like that in the paper?

71
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,919
Speaker 1: Well? I tried it once and it didn't hurt much,

72
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,560
all right, Benny? What do they put in the paper

73
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:12,680
things like this?

74
00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 2: Here?

75
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,399
Speaker 4: I cut it out, m what.

76
00:04:16,759 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: Young and handsome star was seen leaving? What sunset stripped nightclub? With?

77
00:04:21,759 --> 00:04:23,319
What blonde young starlet?

78
00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 4: Isn't that exasperating?

79
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: Is that the whole thing?

80
00:04:29,079 --> 00:04:29,319
Speaker 3: Yes?

81
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 5: And Jane has the nerve to say it's Robert Wagner.

82
00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 4: She does, She certainly does. Isn't that stupid?

83
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: It's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Why anyone

84
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,879
with half an eye can see they mean Lassie.

85
00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 2: Father?

86
00:04:46,199 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: Well look at it, blonde young Oh you mean the

87
00:04:50,079 --> 00:04:52,040
boy father.

88
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,079
Speaker 4: It isn't funny.

89
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: No, no, And I.

90
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 4: Don't think you have any right.

91
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:57,879
Speaker 6: To laugh at me.

92
00:04:58,079 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 2: Your father wasn't laughing at you.

93
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,439
Speaker 4: He certainly was.

94
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, do you mean you're going to let

95
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,000
a little thing like this upset you?

96
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,079
Speaker 4: It isn't a little thing. How would you feel if

97
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,439
you didn't know who it was?

98
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: I think I'd pull through somehow.

99
00:05:15,759 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 4: At least they ought to give you a hear.

100
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, just a minute, Bud, Betty. Let's say you do

101
00:05:20,759 --> 00:05:25,240
figure out who they mean, then what Well, then I'll know.

102
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,519
You know what they say about curiosity that killed a cat,

103
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,199
and this whole thing is nothing but a silly attempt

104
00:05:31,199 --> 00:05:33,120
to satisfy your morbid curiosity.

105
00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 4: I have to know things, don't.

106
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,199
Speaker 1: I not things like who came out of where?

107
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 3: With?

108
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,399
Speaker 1: What? That's being curious about the most meaningless sort of trivia?

109
00:05:41,519 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 6: What's trivia?

110
00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: I wouldn't care if it were something important, But how

111
00:05:44,759 --> 00:05:47,120
can you sit there and make yourself miserable about something

112
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:48,720
that doesn't amount to a row of beans in the

113
00:05:48,759 --> 00:05:51,199
first place? Goaty, what is it? Kathy?

114
00:05:51,639 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 6: What's trivia?

115
00:05:53,439 --> 00:05:59,439
Speaker 1: Trivia? Things that are trivial, they're unimportant? Why because they

116
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,680
don't amount to anything? Like this whole conversation had a.

117
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,079
Speaker 3: Boy, dad, Bud.

118
00:06:04,399 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 5: I was agreeing with him, Barley Granger. I'll bet that's who.

119
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,439
Speaker 1: It was, Betty.

120
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,759
Speaker 4: He's young and goes out, Betty.

121
00:06:12,399 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: Yes, father, I don't care if it's Groucho Marx on

122
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,439
a white horse, forget about it.

123
00:06:19,519 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 4: But I only I said forget.

124
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: About it, jumping creeper. And I don't want any trouble

125
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,240
with you either, But.

126
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,759
Speaker 7: I have to ask you something, Jim, I don't think

127
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,920
you're being very nice.

128
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: Nice? How can anybody be nice when he's being smothered

129
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,480
in quiz kids.

130
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 4: Just because the children ask a few innocent questions.

131
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: If they don't do anything but ask questions from the

132
00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:44,560
time they get up in the morning until they go

133
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,279
to bed at night. Who's on first? What's on? Which?

134
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000
It's enough to make a man commit horror? Kirie?

135
00:06:50,519 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 6: What's horror?

136
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 2: Kirie?

137
00:06:52,399 --> 00:06:55,639
Speaker 1: Now? Look, Kathy, leave.

138
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,759
Speaker 2: Your father alone, dear. He's in one of those moods.

139
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: One of what moods. I was in a wonderful move,

140
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,120
wasn't i, bud Well? I was so full of roast beef.

141
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,519
I loved everybody in the whole world. The milk of

142
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,319
human kindness was practically oozing out of me, wasn't it?

143
00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:15,360
But won an encyclopedia with ears?

144
00:07:15,519 --> 00:07:16,639
Speaker 3: You bet dad?

145
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,079
Speaker 1: What what you said? Yes, Sir.

146
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:27,439
Speaker 4: Rock Hudson, That's.

147
00:07:27,199 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: Who it was, Margaret. I think I'll go for a walk,

148
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,040
a long walk, all.

149
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,279
Speaker 7: Right, dear, And if you happen to pass the leggots,

150
00:07:35,519 --> 00:07:38,839
be sure to drop in the leggots. We're going to

151
00:07:38,879 --> 00:07:41,839
their party, remember.

152
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,639
Speaker 1: Ooh, say, we'd better hurry up.

153
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 6: You didn't tell me what Harraciley was.

154
00:07:47,079 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: You mean harry carry she means harakiri? She does, she

155
00:07:50,399 --> 00:07:58,079
certainly does. Daddy, Yes, Kathy, what is it? Margaret? Do

156
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,680
all children ask as many questions ours? How do you

157
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:02,920
stand it? Oh?

158
00:08:03,199 --> 00:08:04,279
Speaker 2: Mothers have a system.

159
00:08:04,759 --> 00:08:08,399
Speaker 7: When they reach a point just one degree short of hysterics,

160
00:08:08,839 --> 00:08:09,639
they go shopping.

161
00:08:10,319 --> 00:08:12,399
Speaker 1: Well, I suppose that's as good an excuse as any.

162
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,639
Speaker 2: Jim, I'm so glad you mentioned it.

163
00:08:15,759 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: Mentioned what shopping? I mentioned shopping.

164
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 7: You will never guess who I met downtown this afternoon.

165
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:33,399
Speaker 1: Robert Wagner. No, Thellella Parsons, Jim, am I close.

166
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:36,039
Speaker 7: Do you remember the two boys who had the cabin

167
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,000
next to ours at.

168
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,759
Speaker 2: Round Lake two summers ago? Yes, I met the tall one.

169
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,399
Speaker 1: You did, Uh huh? What's he doing in Springfield?

170
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 2: Well? He said that. The other one.

171
00:08:45,919 --> 00:08:47,919
Speaker 4: Oh, what was his name?

172
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:49,399
Speaker 1: Freddy something?

173
00:08:49,799 --> 00:08:51,759
Speaker 4: No, No, No, it wasn't Freddy.

174
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: Well, something like Freddie.

175
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,519
Speaker 2: Well, it isn't important Eddie. No anyway, Wait.

176
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:57,919
Speaker 1: A minute, Margaret, I've got the name on the tip

177
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:07,039
of my tongue. Oh, remy, I know his name as

178
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,519
well as I know my own. Eddie, Teddy Betty Margaret.

179
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:15,559
Speaker 7: Please, Oh Betty, you remember the two boys who had

180
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,480
the cabin next to ours? I do.

181
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: Are you sure it wasn't Freddy?

182
00:09:20,039 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: Yes, dear, I'm sure.

183
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,519
Speaker 1: I can see him just as plain, sort of chunky

184
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,360
with dark hair, Hector Smith, and I ran into him

185
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:28,080
during the World Series in Cleveland that year.

186
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,759
Speaker 2: That's the one who was pitching.

187
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,399
Speaker 3: But well, I just wanted to know.

188
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 1: You see, that's what I mean by curiosity. Well I'm

189
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:40,360
trying to figure out something vitally important. Hah, what was that?

190
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 4: Why is it important for you and not for us?

191
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,039
Speaker 1: Because you don't even remember the man? What name Freddy?

192
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,919
Speaker 2: His name wasn't Freddy, dear?

193
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: Well it was something like Freddy?

194
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 3: Was it Bobby Feller? No, he pitched the first game?

195
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,559
Speaker 2: Now, look he was Roy Rogers?

196
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 4: Who was I don't know?

197
00:10:02,919 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: Why is it that anytime I try to Bernie, wasn't

198
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:07,600
it Bernie?

199
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:08,759
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

200
00:10:08,919 --> 00:10:11,279
Speaker 1: Bernie Serniejernie only.

201
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,519
Speaker 3: Gave up two hits in the whole game, but please.

202
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,279
Speaker 1: Lost anyway. Now, look, Bud Jim, it isn't that important.

203
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,600
It certainly is. I was just about to say the name,

204
00:10:21,639 --> 00:10:23,120
and he drove a cleare out of my mind with

205
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,559
that ridiculous prattle about a silly baseball game.

206
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,279
Speaker 3: Silly, but that was one of the finest games they

207
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,480
ever had in a World series. Only six hits in

208
00:10:30,519 --> 00:10:31,159
the whole.

209
00:10:30,919 --> 00:10:35,039
Speaker 1: Game, Leernie Murnie, Ernie, Jim.

210
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 3: Would you like to give up two hits and then

211
00:10:36,759 --> 00:10:38,039
lose the game one to nothing?

212
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: But will you please stop and let me think?

213
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 2: Jim, we've got to get ready to go.

214
00:10:43,039 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: Where to the.

215
00:10:43,879 --> 00:10:46,159
Speaker 4: Legas or would you rather stay home?

216
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,759
Speaker 1: Oh? No, you don't worry about me. I'll be ready

217
00:10:48,799 --> 00:10:50,240
to leave any time you are, because.

218
00:10:50,039 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 3: A thing like that happened to me. I shoot myself.

219
00:10:52,759 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: If you keep this up, you won't have to.

220
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 4: When I want to know something, it's morbid curiosity. But

221
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,799
when he Betty, I think you'd better start clearing the table.

222
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,399
Speaker 1: But father said, Kenny, that was it all right?

223
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 3: Betty?

224
00:11:07,759 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 5: Go ahead?

225
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 1: No, it wasn't Kenny, Kenny.

226
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 4: No chumping creepers?

227
00:11:12,879 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 2: No? Was he a south fall?

228
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,799
Speaker 1: Who the picture? But for the last time, cow Pak,

229
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,960
isn't this awful? I can see him as though he

230
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,200
were standing right in front of me.

231
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 3: He's left handed.

232
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,799
Speaker 1: Who is a softball? You said anything about a softball?

233
00:11:26,919 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 3: Kathy did.

234
00:11:27,799 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 4: Oh I didn't. I asked what it was.

235
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,759
Speaker 3: Well, I told you a soft boys left handed.

236
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,879
Speaker 7: Why, Margaret, I'm going upstairs and comb my hair.

237
00:11:37,759 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 4: Hector, he'll know, Jim, you're not going to call Hector?

238
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:41,399
Speaker 3: Why not?

239
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: Did lonely take me a minute?

240
00:11:42,759 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 4: Curiosity killed a cat, Betty?

241
00:11:45,519 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: Please, curiosity has nothing to do with it. I just

242
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,360
feel like calling Hector, that's all. Why. Because he's one

243
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:52,600
of my best friends, That's why.

244
00:11:53,039 --> 00:11:54,879
Speaker 2: But dear, you're going to see him in the morning.

245
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: Well, I want to find out about my hammer. That's

246
00:11:57,639 --> 00:11:59,440
what I want to find out. He borrowed it last week.

247
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:04,960
He brought it back yesterday. Nobody asked you.

248
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 3: Was just talking.

249
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, I've got it. Yeah, I've got it, Margaret.

250
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,399
It was Ernie Franklin.

251
00:12:09,759 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 4: Of course, Ernie Franklin.

252
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: Well, thank goodness for that.

253
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: You see, I knew if you just leave me alone

254
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,039
for a minute. What did he have to say? Who

255
00:12:23,399 --> 00:12:24,279
Ernie Franklin.

256
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:26,639
Speaker 2: I didn't meet Ernie Franklin.

257
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,279
Speaker 1: You most certainly did. You said you met him downtown

258
00:12:29,279 --> 00:12:30,320
today while you were shopping.

259
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 7: No, dear, don't you remember I told you I met

260
00:12:33,879 --> 00:12:34,840
the other boy?

261
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:53,759
Speaker 1: Oh? No, Well, when it comes to names, Father can't

262
00:12:53,799 --> 00:12:56,600
boast of the world's best memory. But when it comes

263
00:12:56,639 --> 00:13:00,200
to the really important things, Father always remembers that having

264
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,799
your fortune told can be a lot of fun, especially

265
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,080
if wonderful things are predicted for your future. But what

266
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,559
a pity, there's no guarantee they'll come true. Now, I

267
00:13:10,639 --> 00:13:13,440
can make a prediction about your financial future that will

268
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,639
come true. I predict that you're going to get extra

269
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,480
dollars to spend in less than ten years just by

270
00:13:20,519 --> 00:13:25,039
investing today in United States savings bonds. That prediction is

271
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,639
absolutely guaranteed because for every three dollars you put in,

272
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,559
you'll get back four dollars when your savings bonds mature.

273
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,399
And I can predict even more money in your future

274
00:13:36,879 --> 00:13:40,720
because when you hold your savings bonds beyond maturity, you'll

275
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,360
earn still further interests. The improved rate of three percent

276
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:49,200
interest compounded semiannually continues for as long as ten years

277
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,519
beyond the maturity date of your bonds. Finally, I predict

278
00:13:53,879 --> 00:13:58,000
you'll feel more secure tomorrow if you buy United States

279
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,799
savings bonds to day. Why don't you? I guarantee every

280
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:30,000
prediction I've made for you will come true, it's after

281
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,320
midnight in Springfield, and but one small light blinks its

282
00:14:33,399 --> 00:14:36,159
cheer from the white frame house on Maple Street. That's

283
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,879
in the master bedroom, where the master, if we may

284
00:14:38,919 --> 00:14:42,440
speak loosely, is still giving his problem the old college

285
00:14:42,559 --> 00:14:43,840
tribe like.

286
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:54,519
Speaker 8: This, Bill Stewart, Phil Stewarts, Bill Phillips, Phil Phillips, Jim,

287
00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,320
Jim Phillips.

288
00:14:58,279 --> 00:15:03,919
Speaker 7: Jim, what you realize? Of course, the leggos will probably

289
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:04,919
never speak.

290
00:15:04,679 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: To us again.

291
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,519
Speaker 1: Why I didn't do anything to them?

292
00:15:07,879 --> 00:15:11,039
Speaker 7: Sat in the corner and mumble to yourself all night. Well,

293
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:16,120
I wasn't hurting anybody, and every five minutes you ran

294
00:15:16,159 --> 00:15:16,960
to the telephone.

295
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,799
Speaker 1: I was only trying to get hector. You know that

296
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,480
he certainly picked a fine evening to go out.

297
00:15:21,519 --> 00:15:25,279
Speaker 2: So did we. Jim, where are you going?

298
00:15:25,279 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call Heck, that's where I'm going, But you can't.

299
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:29,639
Speaker 2: It's two o'clock in the morning.

Fine friend he turned out to be introduces you to people,

then you can't remember their names. Ruins are perfectly good evening.

304
00:15:44,919 --> 00:15:46,519
Just because he hasn't got sense enough to stay home

305
00:15:46,519 --> 00:15:50,399
when you need Now, what happened to the light switch?

306
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:58,000
H every time you want a darn thing at someplace else? Anyway,

Speaker 3: Heck?

313
00:16:28,559 --> 00:16:30,519
Speaker 1: Do you remember those two friends of yours who had

314
00:16:30,519 --> 00:16:33,960
the cottage next to us at Round Lake? I suppose though?

315
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:38,720
What were their names? Who those friends of yours who

316
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,080

00:16:45,919 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 8: I don't know, Elizabeth, it's Holly jumping catfish.

320
00:16:49,519 --> 00:16:52,639
Speaker 1: What's the matter. It's after two o'clock, I know. Heck,

Speaker 3: He hung up on me?

331
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 1: No, just hung up.

332
00:17:22,279 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 7: Well we might as well face it calling people at

333
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,440
two o'clock in the morning. Isn't it exactly the way

334
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,319
to endear yourself to your fellow man.

335
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,319
Speaker 1: Okay, that's the way he feels about it. Just wait

336
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:33,400
until he wants something.

337
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 2: Now, what are you gonna do?

338
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 1: Well, you know what they say, when all the world's

339
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,920
again you and you haven't got a friend, There's only

340
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:41,759
one thing you can do to bring a happy end.

341
00:17:43,039 --> 00:17:44,279
Go make yourself a sandwich.

342
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 2: Who said that?

343
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 3: I did, Jim?

344
00:17:49,559 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 2: If you eat anything now, you'll be up all night.

345
00:17:52,039 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 1: I'll be up all night anyway. What's in the icebox?

346
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 2: Oh, the usual thing.

347
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 7: Six pairs of roller skates, twelve pairs of galoshes.

348
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:04,839
Speaker 1: Very funny, you're so cute.

349
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 2: Well, what do we generally have in the ice box?

350
00:18:08,079 --> 00:18:13,519
Speaker 1: Ice? Well, what do you know?

351
00:18:13,839 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 3: Food?

352
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,079
Speaker 1: Let's see now, cold ham?

353
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,559
Speaker 2: Jim, will you please leave out alone? But I just

354
00:18:19,599 --> 00:18:20,599
want to that's tomorrow.

355
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 7: Nice dinner. Now, just sit down and I'll fix the

356
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:25,200
sandwich for you.

357
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:26,319
Speaker 1: What kind?

358
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 2: I'll think of something? Here we are?

359
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 7: How about a nice melted cheese, the kind we used

360
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:39,240
to make up at the lake? Oh, Margaret, why Jim

361
00:18:39,519 --> 00:18:41,319
you've always liked melted cheese.

362
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:43,599
Speaker 1: That isn't what I mean? Why did you have to

363
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,559
mention the lake? What I'd almost forgotten about the name?

364
00:18:47,759 --> 00:18:51,319
And now well, now you started it all over again.

365
00:18:52,079 --> 00:18:54,799
Speaker 4: All I said was that I'd make a melted cheese sandwich.

366
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 3: Did somebody call me?

367
00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: Well? It is the boy with a build in tapeworm?

368
00:19:05,279 --> 00:19:06,599
Speaker 2: Why aren't you in bed?

369
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 3: I heard somebody open the eyes box?

370
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,640
Speaker 1: You know, Margaret, I think he must be part bloodhound.

371
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 7: Bud Anderson, you go right back to bed where you belong.

372
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,279
Speaker 3: Can I even have one samwar?

373
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,079
Speaker 2: Not even half a sandwich?

374
00:19:21,319 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: You march right up, and let's not be hasty about this.

375
00:19:24,559 --> 00:19:26,680
After all, he's a growing boy and he hasn't had

376
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,400
anything to eat since seven o'clock.

377
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 3: Uh, eleven o'clock. What this is my second trip?

378
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: Okay, Bud? You heard your mother up to bed.

379
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,599
Speaker 3: But I hardly ate anything last time and I'm a

380
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:41,640
growing boy.

381
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 1: I said up to bed mother.

382
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 2: Oh dear, we're in the kitchen, Betty, say.

383
00:19:48,079 --> 00:19:50,039
Speaker 1: I wonder if ed Davis did remember he was up

384
00:19:50,039 --> 00:19:50,920
at the lake that summer.

385
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 2: And Jim, don't you dare call it Davis?

386
00:19:53,319 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 1: But if he knows the name?

387
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 3: You just thought of the name yet?

388
00:19:55,799 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 1: Never mind?

389
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:57,559
Speaker 3: But I thought of the pitcher.

390
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:04,319
Speaker 1: Fine, you saw the second game, but it was bob Lemonry.

391
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,559
Speaker 4: Noises in the kitchen. Why don't we call it?

392
00:20:07,079 --> 00:20:09,559
Speaker 1: Oh hello, Betty, pull up a chair.

393
00:20:10,079 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 3: No wonder, there's never anything in the ice box. Nobody

394
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:13,599
ever goes to sleep.

395
00:20:16,319 --> 00:20:19,599
Speaker 4: What's going on down here? Nothing is going on down here.

396
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:20,920
We're all going right.

397
00:20:20,759 --> 00:20:21,279
Speaker 2: Back to bed.

398
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,079
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Margaret, as long as we're up, we

399
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,799
might as well have a sandwich or something.

400
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,839
Speaker 2: Jim Anderson, how do you weaken?

401
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: I don't seem to understand I'm hungry.

402
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 4: Didn't the legget serve anything?

403
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: Oh?

404
00:20:32,759 --> 00:20:36,599
Speaker 7: Yes, but not to your father, Margaret. He was busy

405
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,440
in the corner communing with the spirits.

406
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,319
Speaker 1: I sat there very quietly. I didn't disturb a soul,

407
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,519
but just because I didn't put on a lady's hat

408
00:20:46,519 --> 00:20:49,160
and dance around with my pants rolled up. Jim, Well,

409
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,200
that's what Paul Hersty was doing, and everybody thought it

410
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:52,160
was very funny.

411
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:52,400
Speaker 2: Mother.

412
00:20:52,519 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 5: He didn't. Well, it was Jeddy, Oh creepers. I forgot

413
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:58,400
all about Kathy.

414
00:20:58,880 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 2: Jim.

415
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,799
Speaker 4: Do you see what you've done? You've got the whole

416
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:02,559
family up.

417
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 1: I didn't wake anybody. All I did was make a

418
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:05,240
phone call.

419
00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 4: It's all right, Cathie. Daddy, you'll wake everybody in the neighborhood.

420
00:21:12,799 --> 00:21:13,759
Speaker 1: Was it burblar?

421
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 2: It was fother gee.

422
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,759
Speaker 4: I've had just about enough of this, Bud.

423
00:21:24,039 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 2: Put the cheese back in it. But what happened to

424
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:29,480
the cheese?

425
00:21:30,799 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 3: What cheese?

426
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 7: I had a whole slab of cheese on the table, Oh, Bud.

427
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:53,559
Speaker 1: Gosh, I was just on a nibbling and.

428
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 3: Slab.

429
00:21:56,279 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: Well, I guess that takes care of that. Go ahead, Bud.

430
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:00,720
Why up to bed?

431
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 3: I thought we were gonna have a sandwich? Betty?

432
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 2: Now what are you doing?

433
00:22:09,599 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 1: Get the milk?

434
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 3: Say that's an idea, but oh.

435
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 2: Let them have their milk. Deer? Are you coming up there?

436
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 7: Well?

437
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:18,279
Speaker 3: I did you want something?

438
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 1: Dad? Yes, turn off the lights when you run out

439
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,400
of food, and don't.

440
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 2: You dare touch that hand?

441
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 3: Okay, Mom, good night.

442
00:22:28,519 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 2: We'll be up in a few minutes.

443
00:22:29,759 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 6: Mother.

444
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:31,799
Speaker 2: All right, dear, good night.

445
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 1: Good I And then wonder, it's a funny thing. Every

446
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,400
time I try to get into the ice box, something happens.

447
00:22:39,759 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know.

448
00:22:41,559 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: You've had your moments, meaning what?

449
00:22:45,319 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 4: Well, I remember a certain leg of land, Honey.

450
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,559
Speaker 1: That was twelve years ago.

451
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:51,279
Speaker 9: I know.

452
00:22:51,759 --> 00:22:54,079
Speaker 1: I suppose twelve years from now you'll still be telling

453
00:22:54,079 --> 00:22:55,920
me about that same dizzy leg of land.

454
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,759
Speaker 2: Oh, go to sleep, Kathleen.

455
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,759
Speaker 6: Are you sure it wasn't Burglars.

456
00:23:03,279 --> 00:23:05,759
Speaker 1: We're quite sure, kitten. I'll stop worrying about it.

457
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 6: Betty said it was Burglar's.

458
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 7: We'll tell you all about it in the morning, and

459
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,000
go to sleep, Okay, good night, good night, Angel.

460
00:23:14,759 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: Good night, Kathy.

461
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 2: Oh dear, what a night.

462
00:23:20,319 --> 00:23:23,039
Speaker 1: When the night is right, I'm glad it's almost over.

463
00:23:23,839 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 7: Well, at least you've stopped thinking about that silly name.

464
00:23:27,839 --> 00:23:37,519
Speaker 2: Oh I am sorry, dear.

465
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:39,279
Speaker 1: Margaret.

466
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 2: Yes, Jim, you.

467
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,640
Speaker 1: Know that cat cat, the one that was killed by curiosity.

468
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:45,799
Speaker 2: Oh, that one.

469
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 1: What do you suppose did it?

470
00:23:47,759 --> 00:23:48,599
Speaker 2: I don't know, Dear.

471
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,079
Speaker 1: Maybe the name of another cat had met up at

472
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:51,640
round Lake.

473
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 7: Huh, Jim, you've got to be sensible.

474
00:23:55,559 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 2: You can't keep this up the rest of the night.

475
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:58,079
Speaker 1: I can.

476
00:23:58,240 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 2: Huh, you certainly can't.

477
00:24:00,559 --> 00:24:03,319
Speaker 7: Do you realize that in less than four hours it'll

478
00:24:03,319 --> 00:24:04,000
be daylight?

479
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:06,039
Speaker 1: What was that?

480
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 2: I said?

481
00:24:07,079 --> 00:24:07,519
Speaker 3: That's it?

482
00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:08,519
Speaker 1: That's the name?

483
00:24:08,759 --> 00:24:09,799
Speaker 3: What is Daylight?

484
00:24:10,279 --> 00:24:12,079
Speaker 1: I mean, Jack Daily, That's what it was.

485
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 2: Will say good.

486
00:24:14,279 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 1: That's the fellow you met, isn't it.

487
00:24:15,759 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 7: Yes, dear Jack Daily, Now when you please turn out

488
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:24,559
for light.

489
00:24:24,519 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 2: And come to day?

490
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: Oh no, not yet, you haven't finished. What did he want?

491
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,079
Speaker 5: Who?

492
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 1: Dear Jack Daily?

493
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 2: Oh? I thought I told you.

494
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:46,759
Speaker 7: He just said to say hello, good.

495
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 8: Night, dear good night.

496
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 3: Here.

497
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,559
Speaker 1: The Anderson's will be right back. But speaking of another family,

498
00:25:06,559 --> 00:25:09,480
have you heard about the Joneses. They're going to Europe

499
00:25:09,519 --> 00:25:14,480
for six weeks. They'll start in England, then visit Holland, Belgium,

500
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,440
France and Italy. It'll be a wonderful trip, a lifelong

501
00:25:18,519 --> 00:25:21,960
dream come true. You probably think mister Jones got a

502
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,400
fancy raise. Well he didn't, and nobody left him a

503
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,799
fortune either. Then how can he afford a trip to Europe?

504
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,799
That's simple. He and missus Jones plan for it. They

505
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:38,759
save money regularly through United States Savings bonds. Yes, the

506
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,960
Joneses are going to Europe now, but someday it can

507
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,039
be your turn. Do as they did. Put your money

508
00:25:45,079 --> 00:25:48,720
where it'll earn you extra money, four dollars for every

509
00:25:48,799 --> 00:25:52,920
three dollars you invest in United States Savings bonds and

510
00:25:53,039 --> 00:25:56,599
listen now. The maturity date of the bonds has been shortened,

511
00:25:56,799 --> 00:25:59,559
and you'll get your money back with interest in less

512
00:25:59,599 --> 00:26:04,920
than ten years. Start planning today. Your United States Savings

513
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:30,119
bonds can take you to Europe too. It's been quite

514
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,400
a night for the Anders. One they'll long remember. Now.

515
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,440
The house is dark, the night is still, but it

516
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:41,240
isn't over, no, sir, not by a long shot.

517
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 9: Like this, Jim, Jem, But what's the matter?

518
00:26:51,799 --> 00:26:56,319
Speaker 6: The telephone's dream good?

519
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 2: Jim? Will you please answer the phone?

520
00:26:59,279 --> 00:27:05,599
Speaker 1: Okay, Hello, there the phone's ringing.

521
00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 7: Father, Hello, Jim, please go downstairs and answer the phone.

522
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:23,039
Speaker 1: Okay, what time is it?

523
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:24,079
Speaker 2: Four o'clock?

524
00:27:24,799 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 1: Four o'clock? He gods, a little fishes. What kind of

525
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,319
an idiot would call us at four o'clock?

526
00:27:33,319 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 7: I don't know, dear, but please put on your rope, Jim,

527
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:37,839
you'll catch your.

528
00:27:37,759 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 2: Death of cold.

529
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:43,519
Speaker 1: I'll be all right, four o'clock. If this is somebody's

530
00:27:43,559 --> 00:27:46,839
idea of a joke. Wake people up in the middle

531
00:27:46,839 --> 00:27:50,599
of the night. I'll have their brains examined, spend the

532
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,799
whole night trying to fall asleep. And then the phone

533
00:27:52,839 --> 00:28:00,880
asked the ring all right on coming, Hello, Hello Jim,

534
00:28:01,319 --> 00:28:08,119
