00:00Hi Dad. Hi son. Hi Hazel. Hi Mr. B. Why are you doing the gardener's work?
00:11Because he didn't show up today. Now Hazel can't go to the Y with Rosie.
00:16Oh, that's too bad. Oh, that's all right. I can catch up with
00:19my long distance women anytime. I'm sorry, Hazel.
00:22Besides, I get great satisfaction out of this. So I know how you're longing to stretch out
00:27with your magazines. Fine, fine, Hazel.
00:29Besides, it takes an expert to put in pansies. What do you mean?
00:34Well, they're so delicate you have to have a green thumb. And you've got sort of a heavy-handed
00:39thumb. Hazel, I happen to be an excellent gardener.
00:42I just don't have time for it. Oh, no offense, Mr. B., but if you was to
00:46put these little things in, they'd be drooping their heads before nightfall.
00:50Now, you just make yourself comfy. They would not be drooping their little heads
00:55before nightfall. Oh, but you got to know just how to do it,
00:58Mr. B. You got to know just how much water to put on and how much fertilizer and how
01:02far apart to put them. No, I don't think I could trust you to do
01:06it. Hazel, give me the trowel. I insist on putting
01:09them in. Oh, well, if you insist.
01:12You're the boss, Mr. B. I guarantee you it'll be the best looking
01:16one in the block. Boy, that was just like in Tom Sawyer.
01:25What do you mean, son? You know, that part where Tom Sawyer got those
01:28other boys to whitewash Aunt Polly's fence for him?
01:55Of course I don't mind going out at it, you old bandit.
02:02What's a little rain? Besides, I don't believe in catching colds.
02:28That's right. You know, you're not the only one with the
02:30constitution of an ox. Good.
02:34Meet you in my office in about five minutes. And lunch is on me.
02:38Fine. Oh, hi, Maggie.
02:42Oh, hi. I was going to come down the hall and have
02:47a chat with you later, but what are you doing here?
02:52Oh, well, Mr. Beck's to borrow me from Mr. Needs to type up some briefs.
02:55His secretary's home with the flu. Oh, well, this is just the weather for it.
02:59That's why I brought Mr. B's rain things. When it comes to catching colds, he's got
03:03the constitution of a butterfly. Well, what's the latest with you and Pete?
03:08The latest is lovely. We've set the date. Oh, I'm so happy for your kids.
03:12When is the big day? A week from Saturday.
03:15That don't give you much time to get ready for the wedding.
03:17Well, I don't have any parents to plan one, so we're just going to sneak off by ourselves.
03:22Oh, well, I'd be glad to help out. I'd make all the arrangements.
03:25First of all... Hazel, I appreciate your offer, but really I'd prefer doing it the simplest way.
03:30Oh, well, you're the bride. Things have got to be the way you want them.
03:34But if it was me, I'd want the whole kit and caboose.
03:37Hazel, we found a beautiful apartment with an extra little cubbyhole where Pete can work.
03:42How's his book coming along? Well, it's slow and hard.
03:46But when he gets finished, it's going to be the best darn book ever written.
03:50Maggie, will you buzz Mr. Baxter and tell him I'm here to be taken to lunch?
03:53Well, sure, Mr. Knowles. Hi, Mr. Knowles.
03:55Hazel, I didn't recognize you at first in your civvies.
03:58You ought to start hitting around for Mr. B to invite you to dinner again soon.
04:02I'll do that very thing.
04:04Hello, Harry. How are... Hazel, what are you doing here?
04:07Well, knowing how you start sniffling at the first drip of a raindrop, I brought you rubbers and...
04:12Thank you, Hazel, but I don't need them.
04:14Oh, come on now, Mr. B. You remember that last cold you had?
04:17It was a real doozy. He was in bed for a week.
04:20Come on, put your coat on.
04:22There we are.
04:24You know how women are, worried always about nothing.
04:27Oh, sure, George.
04:29Come on, put your rubbers on.
04:31Rubbers, George.
04:33Hazel.
04:34There you are.
04:36Boy, one year he had pneumonia just from going out in a little spring drizzle.
04:41Now the other, Mr. B.
04:44And then there was the year that he had the trouble with his pituitary gland.
04:48I'm sure Mr. Knoll is not interested in my health.
04:51Oh, I'm fascinated, George. Fascinated.
04:54There's your bumbershoot.
04:56Thanks.
04:57Oh, you don't have to thank me, Mr. B. I like taking care of you.
05:00Makes me feel like Florence Nightingale.
05:04I'll take good care of him, Hazel.
05:06Fine.
05:09That's right, Uncle Harvey, next Saturday.
05:11Congratulations, Pete.
05:13Congratulations, Pete.
05:16Your old Uncle Harvey certainly knew what he was doing when he introduced you two.
05:20Did you introduce us?
05:21Sure.
05:22That night I took you to dinner at the Baxter's and Maggie was there using Hazel's sewing machine.
05:27Ah, you're right.
05:29I'm always right.
05:31So I guess the least you can do is name the first one after me.
05:36What if it's a girl?
05:40Harvelina.
05:42There's a nice lilt to it.
05:44Now, we'll have the wedding at the church, of course.
05:47But I'm not so sure my house is big enough for the reception.
05:50Maybe the country club.
05:51But Uncle Harvey...
05:52Yes, I guess the club would be better.
05:54I'll be inviting three or four hundred...
05:56But Uncle Harvey...
05:57Don't interrupt, Pete.
05:59There's little enough time to plan this wedding as it is.
06:02There's not going to be a church wedding.
06:04It's going to be the biggest thing this town has ever...
06:07What did you say?
06:09I said that we're just going to have a simple ceremony out of town with only two witnesses.
06:13Why would you want to do a fool thing like that?
06:15Because it's the simplest way.
06:17Besides, Maggie and I have a healthy respect for a dollar.
06:20And it wouldn't seem right for you to spend hundreds just for one day.
06:23Hundreds?
06:24Why, this shindig will go into thousands.
06:27I'll be flying in guests from all over the country.
06:30Uncle Harvey, I think communications have broken down somewhere.
06:33No wedding.
06:34No reception.
06:36But thanks for the offer.
06:38I have plans for you.
06:40I want you to step into my shoes one of these days and run this empire I've built.
06:45You'd like that, wouldn't you, boy?
06:47Uncle Harvey, I want to write books, remember?
06:49Oh, fiddle-faddle.
06:50That's just a phase you're going through.
06:53Now, let's get back to the wedding.
06:55There's not going to be a...
06:56Pete!
06:58The pleasures of a lonely old man are few enough.
07:02And what's the use of all my money if I can't spend it on my own flesh and blood?
07:06But Maggie doesn't want a big wedding.
07:08If you want to be the man in your family,
07:11you'd better tell her right now that she's going to have one.
07:15But Uncle Harvey, I...
07:16And tell her it's going to be very formal.
07:19All my life I've wanted the chance to wear a top hat.
07:24And now at last.
07:25But Uncle Harvey, we don't...
07:26Oh, come on. Get out of here, Pete.
07:28And don't give it another thought.
07:30You've made your decision like a man.
07:33And I'm proud of you.
07:36Get me Hazel Burke.
07:50But I understood from Maggie there wasn't going to be a church wedding.
07:53Oh, so did I.
07:54But Mr. Griffin must have changed her mind for her.
07:57At least that's what he said.
07:58Well, why did he select you to make all the arrangements?
08:01Because I'm the most efficient woman he knows.
08:03I remind him of his mother.
08:05I'm so excited I can't wait to get started.
08:08Hazel, if I may ask,
08:09just what do you know about arranging weddings?
08:12Well, who do you think arranged yours?
08:14Remember how lovely it was, George?
08:16Well, all I remember is I had very wobbly knees.
08:19Was I there?
08:22Hazel, I want it strictly understood
08:24that this wedding business
08:25is not to interfere with our regular household routine.
08:28Oh, yes, sir.
08:29Oh, are you going to be needing this study?
08:31Because Mr. Griffin's coming over
08:33and him and me is going to get down to the preliminaries.
08:36Well, I haven't given it one thought one way or the other.
08:39Well, is it okay then?
08:41Well, I suppose so, Hazel,
08:42as long as you don't make it a nightly habit.
08:44Oh, no, sir.
08:45Oh, that'll be Mr. Griffin.
08:46Oh, now remember,
08:47I had some important business
08:48to discuss before the wedding problem.
08:49Yeah.
08:55How do you like it?
08:56Boy, that's the snazziest looking hat I ever seen.
08:59Bought it today.
09:00I'm going to wear it to the wedding.
09:03Good for you, Mr. Griffin.
09:04But before you and Hazel get started,
09:06something came up today
09:07very important about the Atlas merger.
09:09Now, don't bother me about the Atlas merger, Baxter.
09:12Hazel and I have a much more interesting merger to work on.
09:17And, uh, Baxter,
09:18see to it that we're not disturbed.
09:21Yes, sir.
09:22What?
09:31This is probably the best chocolate pudding
09:33in the whole world.
09:34Pete.
09:35Hmm?
09:36Um, you've just been making conversation
09:38all through dinner.
09:40What's on your mind
09:41that you're not telling me?
09:44Am I that transparent?
09:46Mm-hmm.
09:47Why don't you just take a big breath
09:49and blurt it out?
09:51All right.
09:53Uncle Harvey wants to give us
09:55a big church wedding and a reception.
09:57Oh, that's quite a blurt.
09:59You set him straight, didn't you?
10:01I tried to,
10:02but I don't think I got through to him.
10:04Well, you know the old steamroller.
10:06I know him.
10:07And the time to stop a steamroller
10:09is before he works up a good head of steam.
10:11I suppose you're right,
10:12but he's not a bad old guy,
10:14and throwing a wedding would make him happy.
10:18I know, Pete.
10:19But it wouldn't make me happy.
10:21I don't know
10:22what all this fuss and bother's all about.
10:24To say nothing of the expense.
10:26I know.
10:27But when I explained to him
10:28how you felt,
10:29he slammed his ears in my face.
10:31We've got to put an end to it.
10:33Right now.
10:34The next thing you know,
10:35he's going to be telling you
10:36how to write your book.
10:39I don't think he cares much
10:41about my ambitions.
10:43Then he doesn't know his own nephew
10:45very well, does he?
10:47Oh, Maggie.
10:49Most would-be authors never make it.
10:51Now, that's a fact.
10:53Maybe all I'm offering you
10:55is a fat hunk of insecurity.
10:57On the other hand,
10:59maybe you're offering me
11:00a husband who's happy.
11:02Because he's using
11:03that fat hunk of talent successfully.
11:09You know,
11:10I think the only thing
11:11I'm really worried about
11:12are those women's club
11:13taking too much of your time.
11:15That's what it is.
11:16What?
11:17Well, you know,
11:18they're going to want you
11:19to lecture and ask you
11:20where you get all that inspiration.
11:22That won't be hard to tell them.
11:24Now,
11:25when are you going
11:26to put your foot down
11:27on this wedding business,
11:28Mr. Mann?
11:29I'd plan to drop by
11:30his house this evening.
11:31Would you care to come along?
11:33The fireworks
11:34should be pretty spectacular.
11:35Oh, I wouldn't miss them.
11:37I hope there are
11:38a lot of Roman candles.
11:39They're my favorite.
11:40Ha.
11:43Ha, ha, ha, ha.
11:45Oh, Mr. Griffin, here's to...
11:47Call me Harvey.
11:49All right, Harvey.
11:50Here's to...
11:51Call me Harv.
11:53Okay, Harv.
11:57If you're going to spend
11:58all day strutting around
11:59in front of that mirror,
12:00we ain't going to get
12:01any of these plans
12:02done for the wedding.
12:03Well, you'll have to admit
12:04that I do something
12:05for this hat.
12:06Oh, yeah, you sure do.
12:07Look at this.
12:08Wouldn't this be nice
12:09for the bride?
12:10Ain't that gorgeous?
12:11Yes, I can see it now.
12:13As I walk slowly
12:14down the aisle
12:15with the bride on my arm,
12:17we smile,
12:18and the photographer
12:19takes our pictures.
12:20Make a note
12:21to hire a photographer.
12:22I thought you were going
12:23to be Pete's best man.
12:24I am.
12:25Well, then,
12:26how can you be giving
12:27the bride away
12:28at the same time?
12:29Why not?
12:30Well, you can't, that's all.
12:31I think it's better
12:32for Mr. B
12:33to give her away anyway.
12:34She works for him.
12:35Well, doesn't the best man
12:36get to walk down the aisle?
12:38No, he comes
12:39from the side
12:40with the groom.
12:41That settles it.
12:42Baxter can be
12:43the best man.
12:44I'll give away
12:45the bride
12:46in front of all
12:47those guests.
12:48Oh, you'll be
12:49a handsome couple.
12:50Yeah.
12:51Do you know
12:52what I'm giving him
12:53for a wedding present?
12:54A life-size
12:55oil painting
12:56of yourself?
12:57You know,
12:58that's not a bad idea.
12:59No.
13:00I'm giving him
13:01the house next to mine
13:02that's for sale.
13:03Now, don't say anything
13:04because I want it
13:05to be a surprise.
13:06Ain't that kind of big
13:07for a couple of
13:08newlyweds
13:09and when the bride's
13:10planning to go on
13:11with a job of her own?
13:12Pete's coming
13:13to work for me
13:14at a handsome salary
13:15so Maggie
13:16can quit her job
13:17and run the house.
13:18What about Pete's book
13:19if he's going
13:20to come work for you?
13:21Oh, he's not serious
13:22about that silly book.
13:24Are you sure
13:25I can't wear my hat
13:26at the reception?
13:27I told you no
13:28a hundred times, Hobb.
13:30Stop calling me Hobb.
13:32For Pete's sake.
13:34Now,
13:35I want you
13:36to make arrangements
13:37for a two-week honeymoon
13:38in Honolulu.
13:39Yes, sir,
13:40Mr. Griffin.
13:41You know,
13:42I've never been
13:43to Honolulu before.
13:44You ain't going
13:45on that honeymoon
13:46with him.
13:47Why not?
13:48Of course, you ain't
13:49that's why
13:50and I don't want to hear
13:51one more word about it.
13:52If you do,
13:53I'm going to stop
13:54the wedding arrangements.
13:55That's final.
13:56Oh, all right.
13:57Well, I'll go out
13:58and get the coffee
13:59and you finish
14:00that guest list.
14:01Oh, I want to talk
14:02to Baxter about something.
14:03Ask him to come in, Hazel.
14:04Ah!
14:12Maggie and Pete,
14:13come on in.
14:14They told us
14:15at my uncle's house
14:16that he was over here.
14:17Yes.
14:18He's in the den.
14:19Well, I understand
14:20you two are
14:21to be congratulated.
14:22Thanks.
14:23Hazel's so excited
14:24about planning your wedding
14:25you'd think it was her own.
14:26Well,
14:27that's what we came
14:28to see Uncle Harvey about.
14:29There's not going
14:30to be a big wedding.
14:31Oh,
14:32why not?
14:33Because we don't want one.
14:34It's just a lot
14:35of fuss and bother.
14:36Did I hear you say
14:37there ain't going
14:38to be no big wedding?
14:39That's what you heard, Hazel.
14:40Oh, boy,
14:41your uncle sure ain't
14:42going to like that.
14:43You better go
14:44in the living room
14:45and fortify yourself
14:46with a cup of coffee
14:47before you break it to him.
14:48I'd like that.
14:49Thanks, Hazel.
14:50A cup of coffee
14:51would taste good.
14:52Missy,
14:53don't you think
14:54we ought to convince him
14:55that it's worth
14:56all the fuss and bother?
14:57Oh, yes,
14:58but how?
14:59Well, here,
15:00you give him coffee.
15:01I'll go upstairs
15:02and tell him how do I know
15:03that Pete wants me
15:04to be his best man.
15:05Would I lie
15:06to you, Baxter?
15:07Of course you would.
15:09I'll ignore that.
15:11Now,
15:12in the interest
15:13of fair play,
15:14I'll have to tell you
15:15that Maggie
15:16will be giving her
15:17two weeks' notice.
15:18But Maggie's
15:19one of the best
15:20stenographers we have.
15:21She was one
15:22of your best stenographers.
15:23What I really want
15:24to discuss
15:25is the purchase
15:26of that house
15:27next to mine.
15:28I want you
15:29to rush it through escrow
15:30and get me the title
15:31clear by next Friday.
15:32But, Mr. Griffin,
15:33you just don't
15:34rush things through escrow.
15:35Besides,
15:36at the moment,
15:37I have my hands full
15:38with this Atlas merger.
15:39Will you stop pestering
15:40me with those
15:41unimportant matters?
15:42Now,
15:43here's how I think
15:44we should approach
15:45the owner.
15:46And there's Mr. B,
15:47the proud groom.
15:48His knees were wobbly.
15:50Oh, oh.
15:51And there's me
15:52in the center.
15:53I was the maid of honor.
15:54Oh,
15:55ain't that a terrific hat?
15:56Oh, it's lovely, Hazel,
15:57and you look
15:58so beautiful.
15:59Oh, sure.
16:00Weddings bring out
16:01the beauty in people.
16:02Hazel made
16:03all the arrangements,
16:04and it was
16:05such a lovely wedding.
16:06I wish I could
16:07do it all over again.
16:08I wasn't there.
16:09Oh,
16:10this is my favorite,
16:11the bride and groom.
16:12Oh, Missy,
16:13I bet you
16:14wouldn't take
16:15a million dollars
16:16for that picture
16:17of the memories
16:18it brings back.
16:19I wouldn't take
16:20a billion dollars for it.
16:21All I have to do
16:22is look at it.
16:23I can smell
16:24orange blossoms.
16:25And hear
16:26how the church
16:27quiets down
16:28when the minister says,
16:29Dearly beloved,
16:30we are gathered
16:31here together.
16:32And I can hear
16:33the organ music
16:34and Hazel sniffling.
16:36And your hand
16:37in Mr. B's
16:38as you walk
16:39down the aisle together.
16:40Man and wife.
16:45Well,
16:46I don't know why
16:47I'm bothering you two
16:48with this.
16:49Just when you made up
16:50your mind
16:51to get it over with.
16:52Quick!
16:53Have some coffee, Maggie.
16:54Oh,
16:55Pete?
16:56Yes, Maggie?
16:57Oh,
16:58the way
16:59we were going
17:00to do it
17:01is beginning
17:02to sound
17:03sort of bleak
17:04and forlorn,
17:05don't you think?
17:06The way
17:07we were going
17:08to do it?
17:09Mm-hmm.
17:10I'm just exercising
17:11my womanly prerogative.
17:12On with the wedding.
17:13Hot dog, Missy.
17:14We did it.
17:15I guess
17:16we're a couple
17:17of steamrollers.
17:24What if I dropped
17:25the ring
17:26and it rolled away
17:27in the dust?
17:28Would that mean
17:29they couldn't
17:30get married?
17:31Girl,
17:32will you please
17:33stop worrying?
17:34But being a ring bearer
17:35is one of the most
17:36important jobs
17:37in the whole wedding.
17:38Hazel told me.
17:40You didn't drop it
17:41at rehearsal yesterday
17:42now, did you?
17:43No.
17:44Well,
17:45then why should
17:46you drop it today?
17:47Because my knees
17:48feel kind of wobbly.
17:50I guess weddings
17:51are pretty rough
17:52on you men.
17:53You can say that again.
17:54Morning, folks.
17:55Ain't this
17:56a beautiful day
17:57for a wedding?
17:58Morning.
17:59It's a beautiful
18:00day for golf.
18:01Oh,
18:02now that ain't
18:03no attitude
18:04for the best man
18:05to take, Mr. B.
18:06Oh.
18:07Blasted.
18:08Is that a swear word?
18:09No, dear.
18:10Oh,
18:11I'm sorry, Mr. B.
18:12I didn't get a chance
18:13to cut out the sections
18:14for you the way
18:15I usually do.
18:16Why didn't you
18:17have time?
18:18I've been fixing your vest.
18:19I've been doing it
18:20since 7 o'clock
18:21this morning.
18:22What did you have
18:23to do to it?
18:24I had to sew
18:26Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. B.
18:27I have time
18:28to cut them sections
18:29for you now.
18:30If you just...
18:31It won't be necessary, Hazel.
18:32I don't want any breakfast.
18:33Well, usually
18:34I don't approve
18:35of skipping breakfast.
18:36But considering
18:37all the rich food
18:38you might get
18:39at that reception,
18:40I think you'll be
18:41in a pretty smart cookie.
18:42I'm going into my nice,
18:43quiet den with my newspaper
18:44and catch up
18:45on what's going on
18:46in the world.
18:47Wait for me, darling.
18:48I want to catch up
18:49on what's going on
18:50in the women's section.
18:52Oh, nothing.
19:00Why, Maggie!
19:02Come on in.
19:04You ought to be home
19:06getting dressed
19:07for the wedding.
19:08There isn't going
19:09to be any wedding.
19:10Oh, now.
19:11You don't mean
19:12you're going to run off
19:13after all?
19:14I mean that I'm not
19:15going to marry Pete at all.
19:16Oh, come on now.
19:17You sit down
19:18and have a cup of coffee.
19:20What you've got
19:21is a bad case
19:22of wedding day jitters.
19:24What I've got
19:25is a bad case
19:26of realizing that Pete's
19:27a little boy tied
19:28to his uncle's
19:29apron strings.
19:30Oh, but honey,
19:31that's ridiculous.
19:33Why?
19:34Because uncles
19:35don't wear aprons.
19:36Oh, please.
19:37Stop trying to
19:38kid me out of it.
19:39If you'd had dinner
19:40with Uncle Harvey
19:41last night,
19:42you'd understand.
19:43Well, I'm listening
19:44if you want to talk.
19:45Well, you know
19:46Pete's half finished
19:47writing that wonderful book.
19:49And he was going to keep
19:50his part-time job
19:51at the stationery store
19:52and I was going
19:53to keep mine.
19:54And then we were going
19:55to move into that
19:56little apartment
19:57and he was going to
19:58stick with his writing.
19:59And then Mr. Griffin
20:00threw them surprises at you.
20:01The house and the job
20:03with the big salary
20:04and all, huh?
20:05And I don't want
20:06any part of it, Hazel.
20:07I don't want any.
20:08Well, did you tell him?
20:09No.
20:10I wanted Pete
20:11to tell him himself.
20:13I wanted him to stand
20:14on his own two feet
20:15and make manly noises.
20:16And he sort of
20:17flunked the test, huh?
20:18Magnificently.
20:19If he's going to
20:20mess up his life
20:21and waste his talent
20:22I don't want to stand by
20:23and help him do it.
20:24Maybe you should have
20:25given him a little help
20:26last night.
20:27You know, there are times
20:28when even the strongest men
20:29need support from their women.
20:31It wouldn't have
20:32made any difference.
20:33I finished my
20:34grapefruit, Hazel.
20:35Hi, Maggie.
20:37Hi, Harold.
20:38Now you run inside
20:39and I'll bring in
20:40the rest of your breakfast
20:41in a minute.
20:42Okay.
20:43People sure act goofy
20:44when there's a wedding.
20:46Maybe little Harold
20:47put his finger right on it.
20:49What do you mean?
20:50About people acting goofy
20:51when there's a wedding.
20:52Maybe Pete wasn't
20:53himself last night.
20:54Oh, no.
20:55He was himself, all right.
20:56I was awake all night
20:57coming to that conclusion.
20:59Well, I guess instead
21:01of a honeymoon
21:02I'll go off by myself
21:03for a couple of weeks.
21:04Oh, honey.
21:05Well, listen,
21:06since you didn't sleep
21:07very well last night
21:08why don't you just come
21:09stretch out on my bed
21:10and get a little rest
21:11before you go?
21:13I could use some rest, Hazel.
21:16Would you call Pete for me?
21:18I don't want to talk to him.
21:19Why not?
21:21Because there are a lot of things
21:22I love about him
21:23and I...
21:24I...
21:25I...
21:26Well, it would just be easier
21:27for me if you called him
21:28for me, Hazel.
21:29Oh, sure.
21:30I'll be glad to, honey.
21:31Hazel.
21:32Hmm?
21:33I want to apologize to you
21:34about all the trouble
21:35for the wedding for nothing.
21:36Oh, don't you worry
21:37about that.
21:41Of course, I ain't had
21:42my innings yet.
21:46Oh!
22:02Hazel, what's all this about?
22:03And why did you drag us
22:04out to the kitchen?
22:05Because this is where
22:06the coffee is
22:07and we're going to have
22:08us a coffee flat
22:09before the wedding.
22:10Now, Pete, you sit down
22:11over there.
22:12And Mr. Griffin,
22:13you sit here.
22:14Now, Pete,
22:15I want you to tell me
22:16all about the little apartment.
22:17What little apartment?
22:18The one him and Maggie
22:19was going to move into
22:20before you threw
22:21that big barn at him.
22:23Big barn?
22:24Yeah.
22:25It's a shame
22:26you can't move into it.
22:27Why can't we?
22:28Well, because your uncle's
22:29got other plans for you.
22:30And you wouldn't want
22:31to go against your uncle,
22:32would you?
22:33Hazel, what are you
22:34trying to do?
22:35You want to help
22:36these kids, don't you?
22:37Of course.
22:39That's the least
22:40a wise old uncle
22:41can do for them.
22:42Well, then you keep quiet.
22:43Now, Pete...
22:44Hazel, I don't like
22:45what's going on here.
22:46What do you mean?
22:47Well, are you implying
22:48that I'm afraid
22:49to stand up to my uncle?
22:50Well, that's understandable.
22:51I'm the only one
22:52I know that ain't
22:53scared of him.
22:54Now, just a minute.
22:55I told you to keep quiet.
22:56Uncle Harvey,
22:57I think that if we don't...
22:58Now, just a minute, Pete.
22:59I ain't through yet.
23:00What about that book
23:01you was working on?
23:02With the job
23:03I've offered him,
23:04he won't have time
23:05for that nonsense.
23:06That's just what I was
23:07going to tell him,
23:08Mr. Griffin.
23:09And, of course,
23:10he wouldn't want to
23:11turn down your offer.
23:12Hazel, you're putting
23:13me in?
23:14Yes, and if you'll both
23:15please be quiet,
23:16I have something to say.
23:17Oh, I'm sorry, Pete.
23:18I wouldn't want
23:19to hug the floor.
23:20Now, Uncle Harvey,
23:21when you offered me
23:22that job last night,
23:23you didn't give me
23:24much of a chance
23:25to say yes or no.
23:26You just went right on
23:27about the house you'd bought
23:28and all the plans
23:29you had for it.
23:30But, Pete, just a minute.
23:31I'm not through yet.
23:32You might as well know
23:33right now that Maggie
23:34and I want to lead
23:35our own lives.
23:36But, Pete, I...
23:37Just a minute.
23:38Would you mind
23:39repeating that?
23:40I got kind of
23:41a stuffed-up ear condition.
23:42Uncle Harvey,
23:43Maggie and I
23:44want to be on our own.
23:45I'm going to sign the lease
23:46for that apartment
23:47this morning.
23:48You mean you're
23:49turning down the house?
23:50And the job.
23:51I have no other choice,
23:52Uncle Harvey,
23:53if I'm going to finish my book
23:54and I am going to finish it.
23:55But, Pete...
23:56I do want you to know
23:57that we appreciate
23:58all you tried to do for us.
23:59But, Pete...
24:00You're relatively splendid.
24:01Maggie,
24:02what are you doing here?
24:03Just counting the minutes
24:04till I can be your wife.
24:05But, but, but...
24:06You're beginning to sound
24:07like a regular
24:08butt-butt-boat, Mr. Griffin.
24:09I don't understand
24:10what happened.
24:11All you have to do
24:12is to go home
24:13and get into your wedding dress.
24:14Oh, yes.
24:15And my top hat?
24:16Yeah, that's right.
24:21I have the funniest feeling
24:23that I've been flattened
24:24by a steamroller.
24:25Well, it takes one
24:26to flatten one.
24:28Ta-da-da-da!
24:30Dee-da-da-dee!
24:32Dee-da-da-dee-da-da-da-da!
24:58Dee-da-da-dee-da-da-da-da-da!
25:01Dee-da-da-dee-da-da-da-da-da-da!
25:25This has been
25:26a Screen Gems Film Production.
25:31you
