00:01:31Emily!
00:01:34Emily!
00:01:38Emily!
00:01:40Where did you ever get a collar like this?
00:01:42Well, the salesman told me they were worn with a cutaway.
00:01:45And you look so handsome in a cutaway.
00:01:47They used to be worn with a cutaway when I was much younger.
00:01:51And that silk hat...
00:01:53Ever since you had it cleaned, it's been too small.
00:01:55Oh, but you look so distinguished, even if you just hold it.
00:02:01Well, James, you hurry and get dressed. I'll answer the door.
00:02:04I guess it's Millie.
00:02:08Happy New Year, Mrs. Hardy.
00:02:10Sign here, please.
00:02:11Same to you, Jimmy.
00:02:16Thank you.
00:02:20Oh, dear.
00:02:23James!
00:02:24It's a telegram. It must be bad news.
00:02:27Who's it from?
00:02:28What's it say?
00:02:29I don't know. I haven't read it yet.
00:02:32Well, reading it's about the only way you'll ever find out.
00:02:46James!
00:02:47James!
00:02:49What is it?
00:02:50James, Andrew's married.
00:02:55Andrew is what?
00:02:57Married.
00:02:58Oh, James, do something.
00:03:00There must be some law against it.
00:03:02Yeah.
00:03:04Let me see what he says.
00:03:05Oh, it isn't from him. It's from Marion.
00:03:07Are you sure? She said married?
00:03:10After all, I can read English, even if I was born in Canada.
00:03:28Emily, what makes you think Andrew is married?
00:03:33James Hardy, you can't get separated until after you've been married.
00:03:40Emily, I'm going to reveal some military information to you.
00:03:45In the other war, when a man left the army, he was discharged.
00:03:49In the recent one, a soldier gets separated from the service.
00:03:53You see?
00:03:55Well, I don't see why the army can't come right out and tell a boy's own mother.
00:04:01Hello there.
00:04:03Well, this is a new outfit.
00:04:05Does it look too giddy?
00:04:10What's the matter? Are you laughing at me?
00:04:12Oh, no, Millie, no.
00:04:14Millie, read the best piece of news that's happened to the Hardy family in two years.
00:04:19James, your hat.
00:04:33Emily, this... I have no control over this hat. It's small.
00:04:36Now, James.
00:04:39Step back, Judge. On the curb.
00:04:41I have no control over this hat. It's small.
00:04:43Now, James.
00:04:46Step back, Judge. On the curb.
00:05:12Andrew!
00:05:17Andrew!
00:05:18Mom!
00:05:19Oh, Andrew!
00:05:22Gee, Mom.
00:05:27Dad.
00:05:30Welcome home, son.
00:05:32Hi.
00:05:34Me too.
00:05:35Wonderful to have you home.
00:05:37How did you get here?
00:05:38Yes, ATC, C-54, and bingo, here I am.
00:05:43Gosh, Mom, you look pretty and hefty.
00:05:47Say now, Andrew, stop that on your old maid hat.
00:05:51Excuse me, Judge.
00:05:53Will you look at this?
00:05:57I'm sorry.
00:05:58No, I'm not sorry.
00:06:01Andrew just came home.
00:06:05Gosh, Mom, I can't believe that I'm back.
00:06:08Hey.
00:06:17Oh, it's wonderful to have you home again, Andrew.
00:06:26Andrew!
00:06:28Oh, excuse me.
00:06:29Say, Mom, did you get any messages for me?
00:06:31A telegram, maybe?
00:06:33Not that I know of.
00:06:34Why, were you expecting something special?
00:06:36Oh, not especially special.
00:06:40Something from college.
00:06:41Oh, college.
00:06:42Did you notify them that you were home and out of the service?
00:06:45Well, after I arrived, I wired you.
00:06:47I sort of set a wire.
00:06:57Andrew.
00:07:04Andrew.
00:07:07Who was Marion?
00:07:08Marion?
00:07:10What did you say?
00:07:11Oh, Marion, you mean my sister.
00:07:13Oh, she's fine.
00:07:30Andrew.
00:07:33You don't have to go to church if you don't want to.
00:07:35Mother understands.
00:07:37Oh, but I do want to go to church.
00:07:49James, if you're going to have all that trouble with your head,
00:07:51why don't you wear this?
00:07:57Happy New Year, darling.
00:07:58Happy New Year.
00:07:59Happy New Year, Mr. Benedict.
00:08:00And a Happy New Year to you.
00:08:02Oh, may I present Senorita Isabel Gonzales.
00:08:05Isabel, these three nice people are...
00:08:07Oh, I didn't know.
00:08:08This is Zandy Hardy's father, the judge.
00:08:11And this must be Mother Hardy.
00:08:13And Aunt Millie, of course.
00:08:15And my daughter, Polly, wrote Isabel that there was no point
00:08:17in visiting Carvel with Andrew in the service.
00:08:20He just got out.
00:08:21Andrew's home?
00:08:22Yes, Miss Gonzales, I'd like you to meet...
00:08:24James, where's Andrew?
00:08:26We've lost Andrew.
00:08:27Oh, Emily, Andrew found his way home across an ocean
00:08:30in a large part of a continent.
00:08:31I don't think he's gone forever.
00:08:33That wouldn't be Andrew Hardy over there.
00:08:38Andrew.
00:08:41Andrew.
00:08:45How does it feel to be the father of Andrew Hardy?
00:08:48Well, that's a privilege I try to bear, modestly.
00:08:52Excuse me, folks.
00:08:53I guess I must have been thinking about something else.
00:08:55Welcome home, Andrew.
00:08:56We really missed you.
00:08:57Thank you, sir.
00:08:58How did you like the Army?
00:08:59Well, Mr. Benedict, I come from a long line of civilians
00:09:01and I'm happy to be back with them.
00:09:03Miss Gonzales, may I present my son.
00:09:05Andrew, Miss Isabel Gonzales.
00:09:07How do you do, Mr. Hardy?
00:09:08How do you do?
00:09:09Gosh, I've heard so much about you.
00:09:10I feel I know you already.
00:09:12And if actually meeting you is going to be any more exciting
00:09:15than thinking about it for two whole years,
00:09:17I know I'll just blow up.
00:09:19You're very kind.
00:09:20It's a nice day, isn't it?
00:09:22Uh-huh.
00:09:23Oh, there's the organ starting.
00:09:25Nice to have met you, senorita.
00:09:27Well, we'll see him again this evening at the country club.
00:09:29You folks are coming, aren't you?
00:09:30Of course, of course, of course.
00:09:31Please be there.
00:09:32Mr. Benedict has put me in the show
00:09:34and Polly tells me you're a great judge of singing.
00:09:37Come along, dear.
00:09:38Well.
00:09:41Very pretty girl, don't you think so, Andrew?
00:09:43Girl?
00:09:44What girl?
00:09:45Oh, oh, uh, pretty?
00:09:47Funny thing, I didn't even notice.
00:09:49You didn't?
00:09:50Now I've heard everything.
00:09:58Andrew!
00:10:01Coming!
00:10:07Dinner's ready.
00:10:09I'm a double.
00:10:14Here I come.
00:10:16Mmm, turkey.
00:10:17If my mess sergeant could see that, he'd cut his throat.
00:10:19Andrew!
00:10:20Are you all right?
00:10:22Well, I never felt better in my...
00:10:24Oh, excuse me, Dad.
00:10:26Go ahead and say grace.
00:10:28Well, Andrew, I'm a broad-minded man,
00:10:30but I can't ask God to bless our dinner
00:10:32when you're not wearing your pants.
00:10:37Oh, oh, my pants.
00:10:40Oh, oh, my gosh, excuse me.
00:10:42I wasn't even thinking about pants.
00:10:46Now, what could he have on his mind that's that serious?
00:10:49Oh, it's no laughing matter.
00:10:52James, do you suppose the army's changed, Andrew?
00:10:55I'll say that Andrew's changed.
00:10:58But those two years are vital ones in the life of a boy.
00:11:01For those are the years where he's at home or in the army
00:11:04when he changes from a boy to a grown man.
00:11:07But, James, that awful pretty girl in church,
00:11:09do you know, he looked at her as if she weren't there?
00:11:12It proves he is older.
00:11:15Well, he's not that old, Millie.
00:11:19Andrew, if you eat any more, you'll blow up and bust.
00:11:22I'll fill up my plate, Dad, and stand back.
00:11:26I'm going to fill up on home-cooked food
00:11:28because in the next two weeks I'm going back to Wainwright,
00:11:30get my degree, and then I'm going on to law school.
00:11:32Good, Andrew, good.
00:11:34Well, suppose we start your allowance then as of now.
00:11:38I'm going to say something that'll come as a shock
00:11:40to practically everybody here, including me.
00:11:43But I'm not going to cost this family
00:11:45a single penny for the next two years.
00:11:48James, this is not our son, Andrew.
00:11:51I'm not crazy, folks.
00:11:52On account of having been in the Army,
00:11:53I get my tuition plus $75 a month for the next two years.
00:11:57It's the millennium.
00:11:59Imagine having a son that isn't going to cost the family a penny.
00:12:02Of course, that doesn't mean if you see something in a store
00:12:05that would make me a nice present,
00:12:06you should be ashamed to send it to me.
00:12:08I don't want my money to go to your head.
00:12:10Well, there won't be any presents, Andrew.
00:12:13I'm going to do better than that.
00:12:15I'm going to put your allowance aside as a nest egg
00:12:17for your first years as a young lawyer.
00:12:19Gosh, that's a swell idea, Dad.
00:12:22Thanks.
00:12:23And, oh, here's a few hundred dollars you can put in the fund
00:12:26to help it along.
00:12:27And, Dad, don't give me any of that money back
00:12:28if I come crawling to you on my stomach.
00:12:31Well, with a fortune involved,
00:12:33maybe I'd better draw up a legal agreement in writing.
00:12:36As far as I'm concerned, Judge Hardy,
00:12:38your word is good enough for me.
00:12:41Enough of these commercial matters.
00:12:42How about some dessert, Mom?
00:12:43Well, we can get some ice cream at the country club.
00:12:45Come on, we're late.
00:12:46Excuse me.
00:13:07Hello.
00:13:08Operator, give me the Western Union, please.
00:13:11Hello.
00:13:12Operator, give me the Western Union, please.
00:13:16Hello, Western Union?
00:13:17This is Andrew Hardy.
00:13:18Look, I'm expecting a telegram, only I'm not going to be home.
00:13:21Could you possibly...
00:13:28All right, Andrew, if you'll get the car,
00:13:30we'll be off to the country club.
00:13:32Yes, sir.
00:13:34Good evening, good evening.
00:13:36You'd better hurry on in.
00:13:37Isabel's going to sing right away.
00:13:40Hello.
00:13:51Hello, Western Union?
00:13:52This is Andrew Hardy speaking.
00:13:54Say, if a telegram comes for me, would you...
00:13:58You just sent it to me.
00:13:59If a telegram comes for me, would you...
00:14:02You just sent it to the house, but there's nobody there.
00:14:05Well, maybe if I leave now, I can get there before the messenger does.
00:14:08Thanks, goodbye.
00:14:10Andrew!
00:14:13Well, where are you bound for?
00:14:15Excuse me, Dad, I guess I've been away so long,
00:14:18I thought the dance floor was this way.
00:14:20Andrew, your mother's waited two years for this night.
00:14:24Hiya, Hardy.
00:14:25Hi.
00:14:29Andrew, that's Tommy Gilchrist.
00:14:31Oh, he's merely a casual acquaintance, Mother.
00:14:34Oh, excuse me, he's one of my oldest friends.
00:14:39Oh, good evening, Mr. Gilchrist.
00:14:40Why, hello.
00:14:41Hey, when did you get back?
00:14:43And where's that $4 you borrowed from me the day you were drafted?
00:14:48Never mind that now.
00:14:49I'll give it back to you with a legal interest.
00:14:51First of all, right now, you've got to do something for me
00:14:53that will probably confuse you, but I understand perfectly.
00:14:56Go back in the phone booth there and call the clerk on the desk here
00:14:59and tell him that you're somebody next door to Judge Hardy's
00:15:01and you can hear the water running.
00:15:02And tell him to tell the judge you'd better send Andy home
00:15:04before there's some damage done.
00:15:05You got it?
00:15:06Sure, for $4 plus interest.
00:15:07Sure, sure.
00:15:08Now, will you go ahead?
00:15:09It's a case of life or death.
00:15:11Give me the nickel.
00:15:17It's nice to have seen you.
00:15:18Wonderful to have seen you.
00:15:22Mother?
00:15:27All right.
00:15:34Mom, everything was all right at the house when you left, wasn't it?
00:15:37Why, of course, Andrew.
00:15:38Why shouldn't it be?
00:15:40I just thought maybe somebody had forgotten to do something.
00:15:44Oh, Mr. Benedict.
00:15:45If you're going that way,
00:15:46will you tell Judge Hardy there's water running at his house?
00:15:49He'd better send Andrew home to stop it.
00:15:51Well, we mustn't bother Andrew tonight.
00:15:53Call the police station.
00:15:54They'll have the patrolman on the beat turn it off.
00:15:56Very good, sir.
00:15:57That's it, Mr. Benedict.
00:15:58If you want to steal it from me,
00:16:00don't be afraid to do it.
00:16:01Right.
00:16:02Thanks very much.
00:16:03I'll be back now.
00:16:04Good.
00:16:05Thanks.
00:16:06Bye-bye.
00:16:07Bye-bye.
00:16:08Bye-bye.
00:16:09Bye.
00:16:10Bye-bye.
00:16:11Bye-bye.
00:16:12Bye-bye.
00:16:13Bye-bye.
00:16:14Bye-bye.
00:16:15Bye-bye.
00:16:16Bye-bye.
00:16:17Bye-bye.
00:16:18Bye-bye.
00:16:19Bye-bye.
00:16:20Bye-bye.
00:16:21Bye-bye.
00:16:22Bye-bye.
00:16:23Bye-bye.
00:16:24Bye-bye.
00:16:25Bye-bye.
00:16:26I'm going to dance in the style of Chihuahua, the pretty little flute that makes the heart happy
00:16:34and in its rhythm forget the sorrows of my soul, stretching between my arms until the pain of my love
00:16:45She is the most beautiful flower that Chihuahua gave to me
00:16:49She rises to the sweet love with which I am happy
00:16:57Oh, love, this means when you're talking in the English language
00:17:02there is a place that you find down beneath the border
00:17:06where people dance and where you'll find kisses made to order
00:17:10Have yourself a polka that engages you, Chihuahua
00:17:13Ay, qué lindo es bailar feliz la polquita
00:17:24meaning it is grand to dance a polka hand in hand
00:17:34Ella es la más linda flor que Chihuahua dio para mí
00:17:38Jesúsita es el dulce amor con que soy feliz
00:17:48Ay, qué lindo es bailar feliz la polquita
00:17:54meaning it is grand to dance a polka hand in hand
00:18:09Suenan todos los violines y también las guitarras
00:18:13nos marcan el compás para afuera
00:18:17Oh, love, this means when you're talking in the English language
00:18:20find yourself a polka and go dancing hand in hand
00:18:32Thank you.
00:18:37My dear, you were wonderful.
00:18:39Perfectly lovely.
00:18:40Didn't you think so, Andrew?
00:18:42I thought she was swell.
00:18:44I'm not as blasé as Andrew.
00:18:46I think you were more than swell.
00:18:49I'm not an authority on music,
00:18:51but I'm sure that you'll find Andrew a very fine dancer.
00:18:54Thank you, Judge.
00:18:55But I know Andrew would like the first dance with his mother.
00:18:58I'll take the next five or six.
00:19:02Well, Mom, would you care to have the first one with your son?
00:19:04I'd love it, Andrew.
00:19:05Excuse us.
00:19:13Mom, could I ask you something and you not tell anybody about it?
00:19:17Why, of course, Andrew.
00:19:19Well, when you were young, Mom,
00:19:21you knew an awful lot of pretty girls and popular ones
00:19:24and intelligent ones, too.
00:19:26Well, your father used to think I was that kind of girl.
00:19:29Of course, Mom.
00:19:31You know, somehow a fellow never gets around to realizing
00:19:34that his mother was once the belle of the ball.
00:19:36He always thinks of her as something more wonderful,
00:19:39like she is now.
00:19:41That's very lovely, Andrew.
00:19:44Well, Mom, with that kind of a girl,
00:19:48could she settle down in a small town?
00:19:52I was happy to do that very thing with your father.
00:19:55I mean modern girls, girls today.
00:19:59Would they in a small town?
00:20:02The right kind of girl hasn't changed in any generation, Andrew,
00:20:05and never will.
00:20:07Were you thinking of anyone in particular?
00:20:11I was mostly just asking.
00:20:14Of course, Andrew.
00:20:16Do you mind if I cut in on my wife?
00:20:18Oh, certainly not, Dad.
00:20:19She's all yours, young lady.
00:20:21Of course.
00:20:23Now, have a good time, Andrew.
00:20:24Yes, Mom.
00:20:27James, you danced just as beautifully as you did when you were twins.
00:20:48Now I know why Polly Benedict says
00:20:50you haven't lived till you've danced with Auntie Hardy.
00:20:53Miss Benedict is very kind.
00:20:56Thank you.
00:21:09Polly also told me you have the smoothest mind of any boy in Carvel.
00:21:13Unfortunately, conversation is rapidly becoming a lost art.
00:21:26May I cut in?
00:21:28Oh, why, certainly.
00:21:31You're the only man in the world I'd have given her up to.
00:21:33Goodbye now.
00:21:37Thank you.
00:21:38Where are you heading for, Andrew?
00:21:40Oh, excuse me, Mr. Benedict.
00:21:41I'm glad I ran into you,
00:21:42because if you don't give Mom and Dad a lift home,
00:21:43they're going to be in trouble because I'm going to take the car,
00:21:45which was what I was going to ask you to tell Dad.
00:21:47Well, but, Andrew, I...
00:21:48Thanks a lot for your help in this emergency.
00:21:50You're welcome.
00:21:52I was going to ask you to tell Dad.
00:21:53Well, but, Andrew, I...
00:21:54Thanks a lot for your help in this emergency, sir.
00:22:07Hey, wait a minute!
00:22:16Have you got a telegram for Auntie Hardy?
00:22:18That's what it says here, mister.
00:22:20Slide here.
00:22:22Thank you.
00:22:52Thank you.
00:23:22Thank you.
00:23:23Thank you.
00:23:51But soft.
00:23:52It is through yonder window breaks.
00:23:54It is the East, and Juliet is the sun.
00:23:57It is my lady.
00:23:59Oh, it is my love.
00:24:01Oh, that she knew she were.
00:24:03She speaks, yet she says nothing.
00:24:05What of that?
00:24:07Her eye discourses.
00:24:08I will answer it,
00:24:10but I am too bold.
00:24:11It is not to me she speaks,
00:24:13two of the fairest stars in all the heaven having some business
00:24:16to entreat her eyes to twinkle in their spheres till they return.
00:24:22Oh
00:24:52I
00:25:11Andrew Hardy speaking. Hello, dear
00:25:14Listen this is the police station calling. I tried to get you before to tell you we got your phone call about the water
00:25:21We couldn't get in the house. So we turned it off at the outside meter the outside meter
00:25:27All right, thank you very much
00:25:43I
00:26:14Mean nothing to anybody
00:26:38Fine business double bolt the door and leave the window unlocked
00:27:13Lady, by yonder blessed moon, I swear that tips with silver, all these fruit-tree tops...
00:28:09There's the car. He must be around somewhere.
00:28:20There's the light in the house.
00:28:22He was dancing with me when all of a sudden he disappeared.
00:28:25He told me it was an emergency. He seemed very excited.
00:28:39Good evening, young lady. Anything wrong?
00:28:55Everything is fine, officer. Hey, wait a minute.
00:29:04You see, Emily, you did turn the stove off. Where can Andrew be?
00:29:08Oh, I just feel it in my bones that something's wrong.
00:29:10Burglars! Emily, Emily, burglars don't gnaw.
00:29:15Judge, this young lady says that she's your son.
00:29:20Uh, yeah, yes, yes, she is. Everything's all right, thank you, officer.
00:29:26Good night, Judge. Good night.
00:29:27Good night. Well, Andrew.
00:29:30I'm an innocent victim of circumstances. Good night.
00:29:37If that's the picture of innocence, I wonder what he'd look like if you were guilty.
00:29:45Well, come along, Isabella. We may as well go home.
00:29:47And I'll see you to the door. Good night.
00:29:49Good night, Judge. Emily, any of that turkey left?
00:29:55Yes, sir. Fetch your sandwich.
00:29:57Good, good. Emily, what's the matter with your son tonight?
00:30:02Andrew's thinking of getting married. No.
00:30:07Didn't he ask me tonight if a girl would mind settling down in a small town?
00:30:11Do you know what I saw him looking at in the store window this morning?
00:30:14A wedding ring? Far beyond that.
00:30:17A baby's bathtub.
00:30:20Andrew's thinking of getting married and having a baby.
00:30:22He's only a baby himself.
00:30:25I just know that girl, whoever she is, isn't good enough for him.
00:30:29Oh, James, speak to him.
00:30:30Warn him about all the designing women in this world.
00:30:33Very well. Very well, Emily.
00:30:38It's very complimentary to learn that you think I'm an expert on the subject.
00:31:03Hi, Dad.
00:31:06Hello, Andrew.
00:31:09I'm sorry if I caused you any embarrassment.
00:31:12Oh, that's all right. That's all right.
00:31:14I thought maybe we might have a little talk.
00:31:17Sort of man-to-man.
00:31:19Man-to-man? In this?
00:31:22You can forget about that.
00:31:24Considering some of the things you've done in the past,
00:31:27wearing your Aunt Millie's kimono seems a little sane and conservative.
00:31:30Before I was married, I didn't even own a bathrobe.
00:31:33Before you were married?
00:31:36Dad, before you were married, you went out and had lots of fun.
00:31:39I mean, you went out to parties with girls and things like that, didn't you?
00:31:42Andrew, you ought to remember that I wasn't born a gray-haired judge
00:31:46with a law book in my hand.
00:31:49But after you get married, do you miss not having fun anymore?
00:31:54Certainly not.
00:31:58Certainly not.
00:32:01You don't miss it because you still have it.
00:32:04You only enjoy things more because you're doing them with the girl you love.
00:32:07Oh, I see.
00:32:10Of course.
00:32:13Now that you've discovered there are no peculiar disadvantages,
00:32:16are you thinking about getting married?
00:32:19Oh, gee.
00:32:22Dad, you met Mom when you were a freshman, didn't you?
00:32:25Yes.
00:32:28Oh, that's wonderful. And look how swell your marriage turned out.
00:32:31That telegram you received,
00:32:34that was from a Wainwright girl, wasn't it?
00:32:37Yeah.
00:32:40Kay Wilson.
00:32:43Dad, I think you're entitled to know
00:32:46that I'm planning on asking Kay to marry me.
00:32:49Mm-hmm.
00:32:52So...
00:32:55this is the real thing, is it?
00:32:58Well, Kay hasn't said anything to me and I haven't spoken to her,
00:33:01but while I was away we wrote to each other and I thought about her an awful lot.
00:33:04Oh, I had dates with other girls,
00:33:07but not a one of them made me forget Kay.
00:33:10I suppose that's a pretty solid test.
00:33:13I would like to, uh,
00:33:16go back to college on the Wednesday train, Dad.
00:33:19So soon?
00:33:22Oh, I'm beginning to understand
00:33:25the enthusiasm for a Wainwright education.
00:33:28Everything I said about college I meant.
00:33:31I'd have meant it if I hadn't met Kay.
00:33:34I really do want to go back to school.
00:33:37The fact that Kay is there is not slowing me down any, though.
00:33:40You've thought it all out and this is the way you want it, then?
00:33:43Yes.
00:33:46That's if it's all right with you and Mom.
00:33:49Well, I...
00:33:52I think you'd better let me talk to your mother first.
00:33:55Yes.
00:33:58Good night, Andrew.
00:34:01Well?
00:34:04Oh, oh.
00:34:07Andrew's, uh, going back to college on Wednesday.
00:34:10Wednesday?
00:34:13Yes.
00:34:16Oh.
00:34:19Oh.
00:34:22Oh.
00:34:25Oh.
00:34:28Going back to college on Wednesday.
00:34:31Wednesday?
00:34:34Wednesday.
00:34:37He's leaving home two weeks before he has to.
00:34:40He'd rather be with that girl than with his own flesh and blood.
00:34:43Oh, now, it's just possible this girl isn't even interested in Andrew.
00:34:46Why? What's the matter with Andrew?
00:34:49Nothing serious.
00:34:52But that doesn't mean that every girl in the world wants Andrew for her husband.
00:34:55James, you're on her side.
00:34:58We haven't even met the girl and you're on her side.
00:35:01Emily, there's...
00:35:04I'm going to Wainwright to see this girl.
00:35:07When Andrew leaves, I'm going to be on the train with him.
00:35:10Well, I think we should both see her, but not like that.
00:35:13We don't want to come down on him like a protecting army.
00:35:16Emily, for ten years we've talked about going back to Wainwright for Alumni Homecoming Week.
00:35:19I think this is the year to do it.
00:35:23I knew you'd think of something when he's homecoming.
00:35:26For just a few weeks.
00:35:29Then we'll be there in time to save him.
00:35:32Unless that vampire decides to marry him right away.
00:35:40Take my things out to the men's dorm, will you please? I'll pay you right now.
00:35:43Well, if you figure on hoping it, it's a long way to the campus.
00:35:46I've been away so long, I'm going to love every inch of it.
00:35:53Here.
00:36:11You'd be irresistible in that coat.
00:36:18Kay! Kay, darling!
00:36:21Andrew, welcome back to Wainwright.
00:36:24You look better than I ever thought you'd look, and I thought you'd look sensational.
00:36:27Well, you haven't run downhill yourself.
00:36:30What are you doing for the whole rest of the year?
00:36:33I figure if we have about five or six dates a week, in about three years we'll be back on schedule.
00:36:36Hey, give me a chance to catch my breath.
00:36:39Oh, and beside all of that, this year, this dance, it's not exactly a date.
00:36:42It's compulsory. I'm still a freshman, and you wouldn't want me to get in trouble by not going, would you?
00:36:45Of course I'm going with you.
00:36:48Kay, a man could look for the rest of his life for a girl like you.
00:36:51And at the dance,
00:36:54it'll give me a chance to say something
00:36:57while I have something very special to ask you.
00:37:02The dance will give us a chance to have a long, serious talk about us.
00:37:07Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy, I can't wait.
00:37:10And in the meantime, we'll always have luncheon together at our same old table.
00:37:13And to think there are some people that don't believe in college.
00:37:16Kay, Kay Wilson, here comes your private messenger.
00:37:19Hello, Duke. Oh, Andrew, you remember Duke Johnson.
00:37:22I ought to. He was the first sophomore I had trouble with when I came to Wainwright.
00:37:25My childhood is behind me, Hardy. I am a sober citizen.
00:37:28And president of the student council, I might add.
00:37:31Gosh, that's swell.
00:37:34You too can be the life of the party. I was over-waiting for an answer to some telegrams.
00:37:37It's a new semester, and I'm already three months overdrawn on my allowance.
00:37:40This came for you while I was there. I saw you through the window, so...
00:37:43Thank you.
00:37:56Something wrong?
00:37:59No, not really. It's from my guardian.
00:38:02Excuse me. I've got to get back to the dorm.
00:38:05Oh, wait. I'll go with you.
00:38:08If you don't mind, I'd rather you didn't. I've got some thinking to do.
00:38:13Nice girl.
00:38:16To put it mildly, she's triple terrific.
00:38:19Hardy, I want to talk to you, and I'll make it short.
00:38:22Oh.
00:38:25How about giving the student council a hand?
00:38:28Well, Duke, you know, I've been away for such a long time...
00:38:31Now, that's just exactly why I'm asking you.
00:38:34The two years that you've been away must have given you a lot that a kid right out of high school hasn't got.
00:38:37Well, now this dance, for instance.
00:38:40It's a frosh, and they're not doing anything about it.
00:38:43The student council is looking around for a freshman to be chairman of the dance committee,
00:38:46and you're it.
00:38:49Now, all you have to do is see that there aren't any stags.
00:38:52Every frosh male brings a female, if you have to handcuff them together.
00:38:55Thank you, Mr. Hardy. You've made old Duke a very happy man.
00:38:58Oh, by the way, you do have a date yourself, I hope?
00:39:01Duke, all I can say about my date is...
00:39:04Woo-woo!
00:39:10Well, you did very well this time, Duke.
00:39:13Old Duke Johnson always does very well.
00:39:16Duke, why don't you change that old story?
00:39:19Why? When it still works.
00:39:24Hello, there.
00:39:27Hello.
00:39:30You're Duke Johnson, aren't you?
00:39:33Your servant, lady.
00:39:36Uncle Duke, you're a campus big shot.
00:39:39What's your problem, young lady?
00:39:42And come just a little closer to the microphone.
00:39:45Do you like my hair?
00:39:48Hair? Sure, high-class hair.
00:39:51Think my face is pretty?
00:39:54Very nice face, one of the best.
00:39:57And I'm not exactly stupid, either.
00:40:00Sister, you're talking to Uncle Duke.
00:40:03Let your hair down.
00:40:06How dare that?
00:40:09Hooray! Find somebody to take me to the Frosch get-together?
00:40:12That I will guarantee over my signature.
00:40:15It's not going to be easy.
00:40:18Oh, you're a cinch. Don't take my word for it.
00:40:21Look at yourself in a mirror.
00:40:24You look.
00:40:32Holy smoke!
00:40:35That's the trouble, Uncle Duke.
00:40:38I'm taller than anybody.
00:40:41Well, look, honey.
00:40:44Why don't you wear flat-heeled shoes?
00:40:47And go around with your landing gear pulled in, you know.
00:40:50No soap, Uncle Duke.
00:40:53Why pretend?
00:40:56I'm an awful big girl, and anybody that likes me
00:40:59has got to like an awful big girl.
00:41:03It's a good time.
00:41:06Yes, sir, you'll be there.
00:41:09If it takes two guys to do it.
00:41:12It looks very smart on you, sir.
00:41:15Very smart.
00:41:18That looks like you've got yourself a sale.
00:41:21Press it up pretty and pack it. I'll wait.
00:41:24We can have it in a few minutes.
00:41:27Let's see. That will be $62.50 plus the sales tax.
00:41:30But I can pay you on the first of the month.
00:41:33Why don't you come in the first of the month?
00:41:36Maybe we'll still have it.
00:41:39Excuse me, I'm on the phone.
00:41:50I'd like to place a call to Judge James K. Hardy in Carville, please.
00:41:53This is his son calling. And could you rush it through?
00:41:56I'll wait right here.
00:41:59The charges? I want them reversed naturally.
00:42:03Say, you had a Czech sport jacket in the window.
00:42:06Yes, here it is, sir.
00:42:16Well, it's a little conservative, but I guess it'll do.
00:42:19Well, we have other coats.
00:42:22A little high priced here, $62.50.
00:42:25What do I care? I'm loaded.
00:42:28Operator, can you hurry? I'm not calling Honolulu.
00:42:31It doesn't fit you.
00:42:34It's not supposed to.
00:42:38Operator, we'll try the courthouse or the law library.
00:42:41It's got to be someplace.
00:42:44That's the kind of material that shrinks.
00:42:47It's a little bit too big anyhow.
00:42:50It's the only coat of this type we have in stock.
00:42:53I don't expect to get any more.
00:42:56It's okay with me. I don't like it anyway.
00:42:59Hello, Dad. Remember all of that money I gave you to hold for me
00:43:02and told you not to give it back to me under any circumstances?
00:43:05Yeah, well, wire me $62.50 of it right away, will you?
00:43:11But... but...
00:43:14But, Dad, you're a judge.
00:43:17You know the laws.
00:43:20Isn't there some way you can break a non-breakable agreement?
00:43:23All right.
00:43:26All right.
00:43:29Give my love to Mom. Goodbye.
00:43:35That's just the trouble. Everybody worries about my future,
00:43:38but nobody worries about my now.
00:43:41Look, couldn't you keep it out of the window for at least a few days?
00:43:44For a month. Fair enough.
00:43:47I guess it has to be.
00:43:53Say, can I win your contest?
00:43:56I mean, can I enter your contest?
00:43:59Oh, you got the contest won already, huh?
00:44:02Well, I've got it spent already, at least $62.50 of it.
00:44:05Oh, hi there.
00:44:08Hi.
00:44:11Can I take your books for you?
00:44:14Oh, sure.
00:44:17Oh, I'm sorry.
00:44:20Hi there. Hi.
00:44:23Can I take your books for you?
00:44:26Thank you.
00:44:29How was your ancient Greek this morning?
00:44:32Greek to me. How was political science?
00:44:35Greek to me. At least these first few weeks have been.
00:44:38Say, what's new? I haven't seen you since yesterday.
00:44:41Oh, I got a new dream dress for the dance. Wait till you see it.
00:44:44Oh, boy, oh, boy.
00:44:47Huh?
00:44:50Hold these, will you?
00:44:53These come by immediately after class.
00:44:56Oh, I wonder what I've done wrong now.
00:44:59You don't have to remember. The dean will tell you.
00:45:02Hold these, Kay. I'll see you in jail.
00:45:17I'm Andrew Hardy.
00:45:20I think the dean wanted to see me.
00:45:23Somebody wants to see you.
00:45:33Mom! Dad!
00:45:36Andrew!
00:45:39Oh, boy, am I glad to see you.
00:45:42Hiya, Dad. How'd you get here?
00:45:46You promised to bring me here for homecoming week.
00:45:49Well, it should begin, according to my official invitation,
00:45:52about 8 o'clock tonight at the Frosh get-together.
00:45:55The chairman of the dance, Dad, is none other than your son.
00:45:58Chairman? Oh, my goodness. Andrew, you look at least an inch taller.
00:46:01And, folks, there are only two kind of freshmen here this year,
00:46:04the kind that takes just any girl
00:46:07and the kind that takes Kay Wilson, and that's me.
00:46:10Oh, so we'll meet your young lady this evening, huh?
00:46:13You'll meet her and you'll love her,
00:46:16and you'll wonder how a million dollars' worth of girl could waste her time on me.
00:46:19Your rooms are ready for you, Mrs. Hardy. Oh, thank you.
00:46:22Well, Andrew, I suppose you'll be running around
00:46:25like a chicken with his head off till 8 o'clock.
00:46:28Well, Dad, I still have to round up some stubborn Romeos
00:46:31and I have to see the student council president, Duke Johnson,
00:46:34and then at dinner tonight I have a meeting with my committee.
00:46:37But I can cancel all that.
00:46:40All right. Your mother and I will get organized here.
00:46:43Then we're going to have dinner with Dr. Standish.
00:46:46So we'll see you at the dance.
00:46:49Hello, Hardy. Hi. Say, Hardy. Yeah?
00:46:52If I told you where you could pick up ten bucks
00:46:55without lifting a finger, would you give me half?
00:46:58Why, sure. Well, then, if I told you where you could get $40
00:47:01without a lick of work, you'd still give me half?
00:47:04Absolutely. What is this, a gag? I'm busy.
00:47:07No question. That's all.
00:47:10If I tell you where you can get $75 by just asking for it,
00:47:13you'd split it with me, wouldn't you? Sure.
00:47:16Word of honor? Word of honor. 75 bucks.
00:47:19Oh, boy, my sport coat.
00:47:30Oh, boy. Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.
00:47:37Oh, I'm Andrew Hardy.
00:47:40You want Miss Jeeves. Back there.
00:47:43Thank you. I'm Andrew...
00:47:49Something I can do for you?
00:47:52Yes, I'm Andrew Hardy. Oh, I'm Hattie Jeeves. How do you do?
00:47:55I think I won your prize, it says here.
00:47:58Oh, of course, of course. Congratulations, Mr. Hardy.
00:48:01And how do you want it? In fives or tens, I don't care.
00:48:04Oh, the prize isn't in cash.
00:48:07The prize... I don't get $75?
00:48:10Yes, in merchandise.
00:48:13Merchandise? You mean stuff like...
00:48:18You don't happen to have any men's sports jackets around, do you?
00:48:21No, but you can have $75 worth of anything in the shop.
00:48:24You see, we didn't dream that a man would enter this contest,
00:48:27much less win it.
00:48:30Well, in that case, I'll have to thank you.
00:48:33I'll have to think it over.
00:48:38Andrew! Andrew! Wait for me, I want to talk to you.
00:48:52I'm certainly glad I caught you. I've been trying to phone you all over town.
00:48:55I've been down at the new little lingerie shop.
00:48:58Lingerie? Andrew!
00:49:01And merchandise, and merchandise.
00:49:04But I thought maybe you could go in and buy something for the dance tonight,
00:49:07like some stockings or something like that.
00:49:10That's awfully sweet of you, Andrew, but that's what I wanted to talk to you about.
00:49:13I'm going home this afternoon.
00:49:16Home?
00:49:19For how long?
00:49:22You mean that you won't be able to go to the dance tonight?
00:49:25No, I won't. I'm sorry.
00:49:28Oh, I don't mean to butt into your private affairs, but...
00:49:31Oh, that's quite all right, Andrew.
00:49:34Well, this is a family matter.
00:49:37You told me you didn't have any family.
00:49:40I have a guardian, remember?
00:49:43Goodbye, Andrew. I've got to run. I have a train to catch.
00:49:46Goodbye, Kay. I don't know how I'm going to get along here without you,
00:49:49but you will hurry back, won't you?
00:49:52Yes. It'll only be a day or so, and when I get back, we'll have that long talk.
00:49:56Remember, I've got something awfully important to tell you.
00:49:59All right. Goodbye, Andrew.
00:50:20Gee, that reminds me.
00:50:23What did you get today?
00:50:26Couldn't you give me a little one? About eight or nine feet tall?
00:50:44Duke, can I speak to you for a minute?
00:50:47Oh, hello, Mr. Chairman.
00:50:50Well, it looks like I'm going to have to resign, Duke.
00:50:53My girl went out of town, and the chairman can't show up.
00:50:56Oh, don't worry about a thing. How do you like them, smart or pretty?
00:50:59Go ahead. Take your pick.
00:51:02I've got just the girl.
00:51:05Well, you see, Duke, I've been going steady with a girl, and I...
00:51:08My friend, I have selected you a partner for this night only who is strictly platonic.
00:51:11In short, you will platonic her.
00:51:14And I can guarantee that she will platonic you.
00:51:17Yes, we count on you. The college counts on you.
00:51:20My friend, do you know that pretty puss in the white cap afloat there
00:51:23in the briny name of Smith?
00:51:26No, I...
00:51:29This is a must.
00:51:32Well, if it's for the good of the college, I'll ask her,
00:51:35because there's always the chance that she'll say no.
00:51:38Are you Miss Smith?
00:51:41I'm Andrew Hardy.
00:51:44Hi, Uncle Andrew.
00:51:47Duke Johnson said that I...
00:51:50You couldn't go to the dance with me, could you?
00:51:53Yes, I could.
00:51:56Uncle Duke guaranteed to get me a date.
00:51:59Uncle Duke's a great man.
00:52:02Eight o'clock, girls' dorm, and I'll guarantee you won't have to look very hard for me.
00:52:05You know, there's nothing personal in this.
00:52:08Tonight I'm a girl who thinks not of romance, but dancing.
00:52:11Don't be late, Uncle Andrew. Thanks.
00:52:14Yes, ma'am.
00:52:35Ah!
00:52:47Is there a doctor in the house?
00:53:05Oh.
00:53:08I thought you were my date.
00:53:11No, I'm sorry. I'm Andrew Hardy. I'm here waiting for Coffee Smith.
00:53:14Oh, she lives downstairs. She'll probably be up in a minute.
00:53:17Thank you.
00:53:20Coffee Smith?
00:53:23Yes, ma'am.
00:53:35Mr. Hardy,
00:53:38would you mind telling her whom you're waiting for?
00:53:41Not at all. Coffee Smith.
00:53:44I don't believe it.
00:53:47I don't believe it.
00:54:05Oh, no, it can't be true.
00:54:08All right, we'll prove it to you. Who did you say you were waiting for?
00:54:11Coffee Smith.
00:54:17Good evening, Uncle Andrew. Coffee Smith arriving.
00:54:20Good evening.
00:54:23And all ready for the rat race.
00:54:41I guess there's no doubt that you're some kind of a rat.
00:54:44I guess there's no doubt that you're seeing what you're seeing
00:54:47and I'm seeing what I'm seeing.
00:54:50It was a dirty trick. Duke Johnson should never have done it.
00:54:53I don't think he meant any harm.
00:54:56I'd have been bigger than any man he could have picked out.
00:54:59And I'd have been smaller than pretty nearly any girl.
00:55:02It's quite a problem going through life like
00:55:05the Statue of Liberty without her torch.
00:55:08Yeah. Yeah.
00:55:11It was a wonderful dance and I had a grand time.
00:55:14Thanks and good night.
00:55:17Wait a minute. Wait just a minute.
00:55:20Look, let's go to that dance.
00:55:23Go to the dance? You and me? Together?
00:55:26Certainly. It's not how tall you are or how short you are.
00:55:29It's what you got.
00:55:32Why, Coffee, there's a lot of people in this world that are
00:55:35too tall or too small to do some things.
00:55:39Let's take our suspenders and sashy out and kick them right in the teeth.
00:55:42We'll show them. Let's show them, Uncle Andrew.
00:55:45You look awful pretty tonight, Shorty.
00:55:48You're looking mighty handsome yourself, big boy.
00:56:00James, the way we brought Andrew up,
00:56:03I'm sure this girl will be attractive and nice.
00:56:06Well, you know, Emily, love is blind.
00:56:19Look. Look. Andrew's girl.
00:56:23Jump in, she has a fat.
00:56:26How are you doing?
00:56:29Scared. No feeling from the knees down.
00:56:32Oh, I wonder what their children will look like.
00:56:35As chairman of the Frosh get-together,
00:56:38I declare this dance started.
00:56:41And when the music starts, break clean and no hitting in the clenches.
00:56:57That girl's tall enough to be his father.
00:57:05Come on, let's loosen up.
00:57:08Everybody's watching us.
00:57:35Come on.
00:58:05Come on.
00:58:35Hello, Dad.
00:58:44You didn't want him to play football?
00:59:05Uncle Andrew, we had to get out of it some way.
00:59:08Oh, you were swell, Coffee. We showed them, didn't we?
00:59:11But do you mind if we have all the dances together?
00:59:14Not while Duke Johnson lives.
00:59:17Why, Uncle Duke.
00:59:20May I borrow the chapstick for this truck?
00:59:23Why, certainly.
00:59:35Excuse me, Mom and Dad.
00:59:38I just realized what you must be thinking.
00:59:41Well, we think that girl's pretty beautiful,
00:59:44but do you think she stopped growing?
00:59:47Mom, that girl, she isn't.
00:59:50Oh, I'm beginning to see.
00:59:53That young lady wasn't your girl, was she, Annie?
00:59:56No, that's right, Dad. That's Coffee Smith.
00:59:59I had to bring her because the chairman couldn't come stand.
01:00:02Annie, you see, she had to go home.
01:00:05Some kind of family trouble or something.
01:00:08Well, nothing serious, I hope.
01:00:11I don't know, Mom. I've been worried sick.
01:00:14Oh, I think everything turned out all right, Andrew. When's she coming back?
01:00:17I don't know, Dad. I don't know.
01:00:20This may have been your first date at college,
01:00:23but I'll bet everybody knew you were there.
01:00:26They won't call you the invisible man, either.
01:00:29Why don't you take $75 and spread it all over yourself?
01:00:32Why, you can buy your sport jacket.
01:00:35It'll be good for you.
01:00:38It's like a new hat for a woman.
01:00:41It'll put bubbles in your gums.
01:00:44No, Coffee, the prize isn't in cash. It's $75 in merchandise.
01:00:47Well, what would I do with, you know,
01:00:50stuff like that?
01:00:53Sunk, brother.
01:00:56Excuse me.
01:00:59Exclusive with us leotards.
01:01:02Just in from the East.
01:01:05Looks like my old flannel underwear.
01:01:08Probably a combination of that and ballet tights.
01:01:11Uncle Andrew, Coffee Smith has an idea.
01:01:19Well, here it is.
01:01:22James, have you got the tickets?
01:01:26No.
01:01:34Goodbye, Dad. Goodbye, Mom.
01:01:37Dad, be sure and take care of Mom.
01:01:40I'll come back by Easter and take the job off your hands.
01:01:43Mom, be sure and make Dad wear his rubbers.
01:01:46Kay! Andrew!
01:01:49Hello, Andrew. Gosh, you look swell.
01:01:52Mom, this is the girl I've been telling you about.
01:01:55Oh, it's a great pleasure, Miss Wilson.
01:01:58How do you do, Mrs. Hardy? Your son has told me so much about you.
01:02:01Oh, excuse me. This is my father, Judge Hardy.
01:02:04Privileged, sir. Thank you.
01:02:07We've been looking forward to this ourselves.
01:02:10If it's just my luck, you're leaving and Kay Wilson just gets here.
01:02:13The train's going to leave.
01:02:16There's nothing I can do about that. Goodbye, Andrew.
01:02:19I think you know all the things I'd like to say to you, son.
01:02:22Goodbye, young lady. It's been very nice meeting you.
01:02:25Thank you.
01:02:28It would help some if you'd see that our offspring here spends a little time on his studies.
01:02:31Oh, he will. I spend a lot of time on mine.
01:02:34Goodbye, Andrew. Goodbye, Mom.
01:02:37Oh, remember, we love you very much. Have a good trip.
01:02:40Look, there's so many things I'd like to talk over with you.
01:02:43Goodbye. Goodbye.
01:02:46Bye. Have a good trip, Dad.
01:02:50Aren't my family something?
01:02:53And they liked you very much, too. I can tell.
01:02:56I like them. I'm glad.
01:02:59And you, you look even better than before you went away, so I guess everything must be OK, huh?
01:03:02Yes, everything's all right.
01:03:05Which way are you going?
01:03:08Anywhere you're going.
01:03:11Jake, will you take Miss Wilson's bags, please? Girl's dormitory.
01:03:14OK, Andy.
01:03:17You'll never know how awful homecoming was without you,
01:03:20and I'll never forgive your family troubles for killing our date.
01:03:23We'll have our date, Andrew.
01:03:26Will you take me to the concert at the Greek Theater tonight?
01:03:29Kay, you used to be out of this world, but even you were improving.
01:03:32And this time, nothing's going to stop us from having that long talk.
01:03:35After the concert,
01:03:38well, I positively got to ask you something.
01:03:41Andrew, perhaps I'd better tell you now that I...
01:03:44But I have got something I positively got to ask you right now.
01:03:47Anything.
01:03:50Well, I make a long-distance call.
01:03:53You get yourself ready, comb your hair, polish your shoes, and pick me up at 745.
01:03:56That's me.
01:03:59Kay, how long has the human race been in existence before this generation?
01:04:02What? Oh, thousands of years. Why?
01:04:05How could they have gone all that time without you?
01:04:14Lady, if I had a hat on,
01:04:17I'd take it off to you.
01:04:20You are a sensation.
01:04:23Neat, huh?
01:04:26Protects the chassis from the wintry wind,
01:04:29and it doesn't hide the figure.
01:04:32Every girl on the campus will have one by nightfall.
01:04:35And won't life be prettier?
01:04:38Take off, coffee. Here goes the parade.
01:04:41Hey, coffee!
01:04:44And Duke Johnson, too.
01:04:47Very good.
01:04:50Wonderful.
01:04:53Oh, gee, coffee, it's terrific.
01:04:56Where did you get it?
01:04:59What sizes do they come in, coffee?
01:05:02I want to get one a little too small.
01:05:05Latest thing from the East.
01:05:08Save your strength, gals.
01:05:11You gotta see Coffee Smith,
01:05:14because she controls the entire local supply.
01:05:17See Coffee Smith, lower floor, girls dormitory, 6 p.m.,
01:05:20and don't forget to bring all your next year's allowance.
01:05:23Buy me a soda, Uncle Duke.
01:05:26Business matters leave me weak and hungry.
01:05:29Those who our hearts shall be
01:05:32Every day's of yore
01:05:35To keep the light
01:05:38Of our memory bright
01:05:44Forevermore
01:05:47Forevermore
01:06:09Gee, you know,
01:06:12tonight is made up for everything.
01:06:15I'm glad, Andrew,
01:06:18because there's something I want to tell you.
01:06:21Something I want to tell you, too,
01:06:24only I can't seem to get it out.
01:06:27I never had any trouble talking to girls before.
01:06:30Now, when it's the most important time of all,
01:06:33I seem to get all tongue-tied.
01:06:36Wait a minute, Andrew.
01:06:39I'm sorry.
01:06:43I was upset.
01:06:46I was upset on account of it.
01:06:49And how?
01:06:52I suddenly became aware of something
01:06:55that's been staring me in the face for a long time,
01:06:58something I never realized before.
01:07:01It came as quite a shock.
01:07:04Yeah, I know how that can be.
01:07:07I've told you about my guardian, Dane Kittredge.
01:07:10Andrew,
01:07:13because you and I have been such great friends,
01:07:16I want you to know before anyone else,
01:07:19Dane and I are going to be married tomorrow.
01:07:26Married?
01:07:29I guess I should have told you sooner,
01:07:32but, well, till I got home this time,
01:07:35I wasn't sure myself.
01:07:38Very happy.
01:07:41Thanks, Andrew.
01:07:44Dane will be here tomorrow,
01:07:47and because he doesn't know anybody here,
01:07:50and because we owe so much to you,
01:07:53we'd like you to be best man at our wedding.
01:07:56Best man?
01:07:59Oh, you'll love Dane.
01:08:02He's out of this world.
01:08:05He's the kindest, most generous,
01:08:08and he's had to fight for everything he has.
01:08:11He didn't even have a chance to go to college,
01:08:14and to think what a big success he's made.
01:08:17Kay.
01:08:20Yes, Andrew.
01:08:23Are you certain, are you sure,
01:08:26that you're going to be satisfied with staying home
01:08:29with an old man of 35?
01:08:32I'm going to be the happiest girl in the world.
01:08:38Congratulations.
01:08:41And we'll see you tomorrow afternoon,
01:08:44four o'clock, at the chapel.
01:08:47Chapel?
01:08:50I saw the chapel the first day I got here.
01:08:53It's where my mother and father were married.
01:08:56You mind, you mind if we leave now?
01:08:59I've got some studying to do, and...
01:09:02Instead of walking me across the campus,
01:09:05why don't you take the shortcut back to the dorm?
01:09:08Sure, I'll have more time to study, too.
01:09:11Oh, I had a swell time tonight.
01:09:26Hi, partner.
01:09:29Oh, hi, Coffey. I'm awful busy.
01:09:32Not too busy for this, partner.
01:09:35They're a whale, the ones.
01:09:38What is this?
01:09:41It's the profit on the leotards.
01:09:44Your sport jacket. It's $85.
01:09:47Why, you're a millionaire.
01:09:50Listen, Coffey, I'm awful busy.
01:09:53What's the trouble?
01:09:56Nothing. Nothing at all.
01:09:59If it were I, I'd tell you.
01:10:02I'm on my way to be best man at Kay Wilson's wedding.
01:10:05She's marrying her guardian.
01:10:23D.K.
01:10:39Andrew! Andrew, here I am!
01:10:42Oh, hello, Kay.
01:10:45I... I brought this for you.
01:10:48Thank you, Andrew.
01:10:51Thank you, Andrew.
01:10:54I knew you would, so I didn't let Dane buy me a bridal bouquet.
01:10:57Is that... his car?
01:11:00Yes.
01:11:03Oh, this is for the minister.
01:11:06The best man always gets him the fee, you know.
01:11:09I guess so.
01:11:12Andrew, this is Dane.
01:11:15Andrew, how are you?
01:11:18This is for the minister.
01:11:21The ring is in your left-hand coat pocket, and I gave the money to Andrew.
01:11:24Good old efficiency, Kittredge. Mine like a steel trap.
01:11:27Here, you better take this ring. Don't lose it.
01:11:30No, of course not.
01:11:33Okay, Mrs. Kittredge.
01:11:41May I have the ring?
01:11:48Thank you.
01:11:56With this ring, I thee wed.
01:11:59With this ring, I thee wed.
01:12:02I pronounce you man and wife.
01:12:05Whom God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.
01:12:09The line forms at the right, Andrew.
01:12:12Oh.
01:12:15Pardon me.
01:12:18Will the best man sign the marriage certificate, please?
01:12:21As witness.
01:12:24Oh, uh, here.
01:12:27Thank you, Dr. White.
01:12:30It was a very nice service.
01:12:33Thank you, Mr. Hardy.
01:12:36You were a tower of strength.
01:12:39And, Andrew, this is for you.
01:12:42Me?
01:12:45Yes, you.
01:12:48Thank you.
01:12:51This is for you.
01:12:54Me? What?
01:12:57Rice, remember? You throw it at us as we drive off.
01:13:00Don't forget your marriage certificate.
01:13:03Thank you.
01:13:06Good old efficiency, Kittredge.
01:13:09Bye.
01:13:12Bye.
01:13:21Hi.
01:13:24Hi, Coffee.
01:13:27Gets dark early now, doesn't it?
01:13:30Yeah.
01:13:33Cold, too.
01:13:36Mind if I sit down?
01:13:39No.
01:13:42Selling leotards is awfully hard on the feet.
01:13:45It's a tough rap, Uncle Andrew.
01:13:48It's just one of those things. Take them as they come.
01:13:51That's the way to look at it.
01:13:54It's not as if she were the only co-ed here.
01:13:57There are plenty of new ones every semester.
01:14:00The woods are full of them.
01:14:03Gosh, you certainly couldn't say she was the most beautiful girl.
01:14:06Her eyes were too big and her chin was pointed.
01:14:09Gosh, you couldn't even say she was pretty.
01:14:12I mean, not awful pretty.
01:14:15Not that there was anything wrong with her.
01:14:18Not a thing wrong with her, not a thing.
01:14:21Had a mind of her own, did things her own way.
01:14:24Maybe even a little stubborn.
01:14:27Not that it wasn't nice being with her.
01:14:30I'm not worried. I always had more dates than I could handle.
01:14:33There's no sense in making this important because it wasn't.
01:14:36There was nothing different about her or...
01:14:39what we did or the way we felt.
01:14:42Hurts bad, doesn't it?
01:14:45Awful bad.
01:14:48And it keeps getting worse.
01:14:51Not really. You'll feel better before you know it.
01:14:54I was going to ask her to marry me when she told me.
01:14:57Now...
01:15:00Now you think it's all over. You've lost the one girl in the world.
01:15:03You can't ever see yourself falling in love again or getting married or being happy.
01:15:06It adds up that way.
01:15:09But it works out different.
01:15:12There's a couple of billion people in the world.
01:15:15And a marriage only takes two.
01:15:18It isn't just one man for one woman.
01:15:21It's the right kind of a man for the right kind of woman.
01:15:24Kay's the kind of girl for you, but suppose Kay'd never come to Wainwright.
01:15:27Would that mean you'd been out of the race before it started?
01:15:30I guess not.
01:15:33You see, Andrew, at 14, a boy and a girl are the same age.
01:15:36At 16, she's getting ahead of him.
01:15:39At 20, she's a woman, ready for the responsibility of being a woman.
01:15:42And a fellow at 20...
01:15:45It's just a kid not even getting started. Is that it, Coffey?
01:15:48You can be grateful to Kay because now you know the kind of girl you want.
01:15:51And when everything's right, that girl will be around.
01:15:54You're swell.
01:15:57It's neat and it's logical and...
01:16:00I can't argue with it.
01:16:04But right now you feel worse than before. Is that it?
01:16:07Might explode or holler or break something.
01:16:10I sure would.
01:16:23Did you call me, Emily?
01:16:26Yes. James, that pie isn't as good as usual, is it?
01:16:29You always say that, Emily, and they always turn out delicious.
01:16:32Yes, but I want this one to be better than delicious.
01:16:35Andrew's been eating in those college restaurants for months.
01:16:38Wouldn't it worry you to let us know what train he's coming in on?
01:16:41James, you don't think there'll be a train wreck, do you?
01:16:44Well, I don't believe a railroad would wreck a whole train
01:16:47just so our son Andrew couldn't get home for Easter.
01:16:50What on earth are you doing, Millie?
01:16:53When a famous hunter comes home, the least his old hat can do is polish up his trophies.
01:16:56Package for Andrew Hardy. Sign here, will you please, Mrs. Hardy?
01:16:59Oh, it's from the clothing shop at the college.
01:17:02Better hang it up to here.
01:17:05I'll sign it.
01:17:13Oh.
01:17:16Oh, I suppose that's the kind of jacket all the young men are wearing.
01:17:19Under a perfectly terrible thought, isn't it?
01:17:22I wonder how Andrew financed it.
01:17:25Let me put it in his room.
01:17:28I've got to put these pictures around anyway.
01:17:31I'll hang it up by the window, the fresh air will help get the wrinkles out.
01:17:34I think it'll look better with the wrinkles in.
01:17:42Would you be good enough?
01:17:45Would you be good enough?
01:17:55What on earth?
01:17:58Andrew!
01:18:05There you go.
01:18:08Thank you, sir.
01:18:15Andrew!
01:18:18Andrew!
01:18:21Oh, excuse me, Dad.
01:18:24Oh, I was so afraid you'd find it impossible to get a berth on the train.
01:18:27Impossible? You're looking at good old Efficiency Hardy.
01:18:30New hat?
01:18:33Gloves, too.
01:18:36I believe so. The fact is, I've been so busy, I haven't been able to think about such things as clothes.
01:18:39Oh, maybe you could think about this. Your mother baked you an apple pie.
01:18:42I mean, as kids would say.
01:18:45How's your young lady?
01:18:48Oh, my young lady, she... I think I forgot to write you in my letters, but...
01:18:51Kay is married.
01:18:54Gee, did you hear that? Kay Wilson's married.
01:18:57That's a lovely ceremony, too. I was best man.
01:19:00Married a fine chap, name of...
01:19:03Kittredge. Yes, that was it, Kittredge.
01:19:06Funny, I never forget a name. Mine like a steel trap.
01:19:09Is he a friend of yours?
01:19:12No, Dane Kittredge never has been to college.
01:19:15Dane Kittredge? Kittredge, Kittredge. How old is he?
01:19:18Oh, he's a young fellow, roughly. I'd gauge him around 36.
01:19:21Yes, yes, it must be the Kittredge Shipbuilding Company.
01:19:24No, this chap is the head of a steel mill, I believe, Dad.
01:19:27Then that's the man. Oh, what an amazing career.
01:19:30Dane Kittredge is an industrial wizard.
01:19:33Kittredge, I've heard the name somewhere.
01:19:36I think Kay's a very lucky girl to get a man as successful as that.
01:19:41Excuse me, I'm going in and look up that apple pie.
01:19:44It's on the icebox.
01:19:49I knew he was pretending to be somebody. Now I see.
01:19:52It's Dane Kittredge.
01:19:59Brilliant career.
01:20:02Industrial wizard.
01:20:06Kittredge.
01:20:12Andrew.
01:20:20Andrew, this looks like your trunk.
01:20:23Yes, Mom, it is mine.
01:20:26Put it right there, thank you.
01:20:30Thank you.
01:20:36Oh, Andrew.
01:20:39What on earth do you want your trunk for?
01:20:42You're going to be here a few days.
01:20:45Dad, I'm not going back to college.
01:20:48Not going back to college?
01:20:51What happened to you?
01:20:54I'm not going back to college.
01:20:57College?
01:21:00What happened, son?
01:21:03Nothing, Dad. It's just that college and law school are too slow.
01:21:06I see. You're afraid that you'd be outdistanced by your contemporaries.
01:21:09Dad, the key to everything is success.
01:21:12And I don't mean the colleges.
01:21:15But a man has got to go out into the world, build things, make things, sell things to people.
01:21:18A man's got to go after what he wants.
01:21:21And you have worked out a plan whereby you get what you go after.
01:21:24No, while I was in the Army, I met a young officer who was an engineer.
01:21:27He's now down in South America on a construction job.
01:21:30I sent him a cable before I left Wainwright.
01:21:33I expect an answer any minute.
01:21:36He told me I could go down there and get a job whenever I wanted it.
01:21:39Mom, Dad.
01:21:42Mom and Dad, I...
01:21:45I feel terrible about this thing.
01:21:48You both have been so wonderful to me, and I hate changing the plan you've made for me.
01:21:51But, Dad, I can't go on sitting at a desk like a schoolboy
01:21:54while every other man is out making good.
01:22:03It's all because Cableson got married.
01:22:09Yes.
01:22:12It is.
01:22:15Forbid him to go.
01:22:18You should go back to Wainwright.
01:22:21No, Emily, a boy's got to want to go to college to get any good out of it.
01:22:24Anyway, you could talk to him.
01:22:27He'll listen to you. He always has.
01:22:30Well, I'll try.
01:22:33But I'm afraid this time...
01:22:36Well...
01:22:39I'll try.
01:22:48Come in.
01:22:51I thought you'd be up here, Dad.
01:22:54So?
01:22:57Well, now that I'm here, what did you think I was going to do?
01:23:00Well, it's obvious that you'd try and talk me out of going.
01:23:03No, you're wrong.
01:23:06That is not my intention.
01:23:09Thanks, Dad. I'd hoped you'd understand.
01:23:12After all, it is my life, and it has to be my decision.
01:23:15Nevertheless, Andrew, your mother and I have an interest in this, too.
01:23:18You see, we taught you how to think.
01:23:21Your mother and I.
01:23:24And if you make a mistake, well, it's really our mistake.
01:23:27There's no mistake being made, Dad. None whatsoever.
01:23:30This is a young man's world.
01:23:33Oh...
01:23:36Now I know what you're thinking about.
01:23:39Well, Andrew, suppose we just...
01:23:42Suppose we just hop over the next 10 or 15 years.
01:23:45Let's skip all the details, if you're making good.
01:23:48There's just one proud picture uppermost in your mind.
01:23:51Your return.
01:23:54I can see you coming back.
01:23:57Big success.
01:24:00Still young.
01:24:03Perhaps little grades, tempos.
01:24:06Maybe a stash.
01:24:09You'll have clothes of a slightly foreign flavor,
01:24:12and in corners, people will be whispering.
01:24:15They'll say,
01:24:18that's Andrew Hardy, famous engineer.
01:24:21That's the man who built that great bridge
01:24:24that everyone said was impossible.
01:24:27Somehow, Kay will be there.
01:24:30And she'll be thinking,
01:24:33maybe she married the wrong man.
01:24:36Maybe she should have waited for you.
01:24:39Maybe she'll never know.
01:24:42Whatever gave you ideas like that?
01:24:45These aren't ideas. These are truths.
01:24:48And I know because once I had almost the same thoughts myself.
01:24:51And you see, we're just alike.
01:24:54I was only 14 at that time, and you're old enough to know better.
01:25:00Dad, I'm going to South America.
01:25:04I'm going to make good.
01:25:07There's nothing wrong with being an engineer.
01:25:10Certainly not. It's a fine profession.
01:25:13Civilization couldn't have progressed without it.
01:25:16And if I thought that you wanted to be an engineer,
01:25:19really wanted to be, I'd be so happy I'd cheer.
01:25:22But I do.
01:25:25No, you don't.
01:25:28You're not going to South America to fulfill a lifelong ambition.
01:25:31And what's more important,
01:25:34you're running away from your first defeat.
01:25:37Now, that's true, isn't it?
01:25:40Yes, sir, it's true.
01:25:43And you never thought that this trip,
01:25:46if you don't want to be an engineer,
01:25:49would also keep you from ever being a lawyer.
01:25:52It'd be too late to start all that when you came back.
01:25:55You never considered that, did you?
01:25:58You know, before you risk your entire life,
01:26:01if I was taking such a gamble,
01:26:04I'd make sure that the odds weren't quite so heavy against me.
01:26:07You make it sound awful dismal.
01:26:10Well, don't you believe
01:26:13you'd better do a little more thinking before you finish packing?
01:26:16And remember this.
01:26:19There's no shortcut to success.
01:26:22You've got to eat pro
01:26:25before you can appreciate the taste of chicken.
01:26:28You know, before you came up, I had it all figured out.
01:26:31Now you've got me worried about a lot of things.
01:26:34Well, would you rather give it more thought now
01:26:37or suffer regret the rest of your life?
01:26:43Dad, there for a minute,
01:26:46I thought of running away and joining the Foreign Legion.
01:26:49Oh, only for a minute.
01:26:52An Easter present?
01:26:55It was nice of you to get it for me.
01:26:58Oh, we didn't. It came this morning.
01:27:01And I've been wondering what minor larceny you committed to get it.
01:27:04What college kid could afford a coat like that?
01:27:07I'm going away, Dad.
01:27:10And now I'm going down to the telegraph office
01:27:13and wait for my answer.
01:27:21I'm going to get it.
01:27:24I'm going to get it.
01:27:27I'm going to get it.
01:27:30I'm going to get it.
01:27:33I'm going to get it.
01:27:50Hardy. Andrew Hardy, here's your message.
01:27:53And it's good news.
01:28:03It's good news.
01:28:06Andrew!
01:28:09Andrew Hardy!
01:28:12Oh, how do you do?
01:28:15When did you get back into town?
01:28:18And what's more important, how long are you going to stay?
01:28:21Oh, I was just leaving for...
01:28:24Oh, I see.
01:28:27Oh, I see.
01:28:30Oh, I see.
01:28:34And what more important, how long are you going to stay?
01:28:37I was just leaving for... I don't know.
01:28:40You haven't the faintest idea who I am.
01:28:43Remember, we danced together and I sang and...
01:28:46Oh yes, you were lovely, Miss...
01:28:49Isabel, you were lovely, Isabel.
01:28:52But we didn't have a chance to get acquainted,
01:28:55so I'm not doing anything in particular right now,
01:28:58and if you're not doing anything in particular...
01:29:01well...
01:29:03We should have stayed home.
01:29:08Emily, 20 of my colleagues gave me a dinner.
01:29:12I couldn't tell them I was going to stay home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:17We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:22We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:27We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:32We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:37We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:42We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:47We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:52We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:29:57We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:30:02We should have stayed home because our son was going to run away and join the foreign legions.
01:30:07And I like your eyes.
01:30:09Would you like my hips?
01:30:11Two hips will attide you.
01:30:13See, see, see, see, see, see that moon above.
01:30:17Wave, wave, wave, wave in the blue.
01:30:19I can't look at you and say I'm happy.
01:30:21See, see, see, senor, I think I'll fall in love.
01:30:26And when I fall, I think I'll fall for you.
01:30:32I'm really not in the mood to dance.
01:30:34Oh, I have enough mood for both of us. Come on.
01:30:44Oh, Andrew.
01:30:54Oh, Andrew.
01:30:55Hello.
01:30:56Hello.
01:30:57Good evening.
01:31:00Now I'll teach you the Spanish lyrics.
01:31:02I'll make you up on that in about seven years.
01:31:04After I finish college and law school.
01:31:09You're, you're going back to Wainwright?
01:31:13Unless you know another way that I can become a judge or a lawyer.
01:31:16And anyhow, I have a very strong hunch that I'm going to be elected something or other in the sophomore class.
01:31:21Oh, I think that's wonderful.
01:31:23I think we ought to celebrate.
01:31:24Well, I've got some cold ham and potato salad.
01:31:26Don't forget the apple pie, ma'am.
01:31:27Oh, let me help you.
01:31:32Dad, after this, you and mom won't have to worry about me anymore.
01:31:37After this, when you tell me something, I'll have sense enough to listen.
01:31:40Well, here's quite an addition to your collection.
01:31:44Yes, Isabelle gave this to me.
01:31:46I know that Aunt Millie put all of these pictures over here just to kid me.
01:31:52Too bad we haven't got a larger piano.
01:31:55Oh, that won't be necessary, Dad.
01:31:56You're talking to the new Andrew Hardy.
01:31:58Oh, Isabelle is a swell girl.
01:31:59They're all swell girls, but my past is behind me.
01:32:02That's fine, son.
01:32:03From now on, I'm going to concentrate on work.
01:32:05Up at six, study till nine, classes till five, and then more studying up until midnight.
01:32:09But from now on, I'm through with women.
01:32:10I'm never going to get involved with women again.
01:32:12That's the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help me.
