00:00Here we are, I made a fresh pot of coffee.
00:05Thank you, Hazel.
00:06You mean the financial page, Mr. Bean?
00:08That's right.
00:09How is the market doing?
00:11It's down a little.
00:12Say, did you ever do anything about that stock I told you about, the V&V Products Incorporated?
00:18No, Hazel, I have a stockbroker who advises me on my investments.
00:22I don't mean to be rude, but I never take a tip from an amateur.
00:26Oh, that's all right.
00:27How are your stocks doing?
00:29Hmm, the whole market's down a little.
00:32Oh, that's too bad.
00:34What is this V&V Products Incorporated, Hazel?
00:37Well, they make all kinds of kitchen appliances.
00:40And the thing I like about them as an investment is that they're growing faster than the national economy.
00:45Almost 6% last year.
00:47It's what you call a growth stock.
00:49Do they pay good dividends?
00:51Well, growth stocks don't pay more than about 40% of the net annual earnings, you know.
00:56They turn the rest of it into expansion and research.
01:00You see, it's...
01:01Hazel, I'm trying to read this paper.
01:05Oh, well, I better go out and do my dishes.
01:13Dorothy, I wish you wouldn't encourage her to talk about stocks.
01:16She doesn't know anything about them.
01:17She's been reading books, George.
01:21All right, I'll just prove it to you.
01:23Let me just find the listing here.
01:25V&V Stock, V&V Products, V&V Products.
01:30Here we are.
01:33Oh, for Pete's sake.
01:35What's the matter, George?
01:37It's up five points.
01:53V&V Stock, V&V Products, V&V Products.
01:56V&V Stock, V&V Products, V&V Products.
02:21Harold!
02:22Harold!
02:23Package!
02:24For me?
02:25Oh, boy!
02:26For me?
02:27Master Harold Baxter, I don't know anybody else by that name around here, do you?
02:31Will you send me the label, huh? Will you?
02:33Oh, sure.
02:35You don't think I want to throw away an important paper like that with your name on it.
02:38What do you take me for?
02:40Is it the airplane I sent away for, huh?
02:43Ooh, look at the picture. Ain't that a doozy?
02:46But it doesn't look right.
02:48Why don't you get it together?
02:49Will you help me?
02:51Yes, when I come back from downtown.
02:53Aw, gee, how long will you be gone?
02:55That all depends on whether your dad will lend me his car.
02:58Why don't you take Mother's? She won't mind.
03:00Of course, it's being shampooed, that's why.
03:02Now, don't lose any of them pieces.
03:07Excuse me.
03:08Come on in.
03:09Sure, we can use some help.
03:11Well, I'll be glad to help when I get back from downtown, even if it is my day off.
03:15Hey, look!
03:16My airplane came addressed to me.
03:19See? Master Harold Baxter.
03:21Good, let's have a look at it.
03:22It isn't put together yet.
03:24Mr. B., can I borrow your car?
03:26Well, I don't know, Hazel, for how long?
03:28Oh, just a little while. I'm just going to buy a pair of shoes.
03:30You want to come along, Missy?
03:32You know, the world department store don't have an annual sale more than once a year.
03:36Well, not this morning, Hazel.
03:38But when they do, it's a doozy.
03:40$28 shoes for $9.95.
03:42Can I have the keys, Mr. B.?
03:44Well, now, Hazel, I have to pick up Mr. Griffin for a very important meeting.
03:47And I can't leave here later than 12 o'clock.
03:49Oh, that don't give me much time.
03:51Well, it won't give you any time at all.
03:53I'm sorry, Hazel.
03:55Is there any reason you can't take a bus?
03:58There sure is.
03:59They only run once an hour on Saturday, and I missed the 1028
04:03just because you wanted waffles for breakfast.
04:05Well, Hazel, I'm very sorry, but you'll have to take the 1128.
04:09Well, there's no use getting there when they're all sold.
04:11If she promised to be back by noon, George.
04:13She can't possibly get back here by noon.
04:16You want to bet? $9.95, even money.
04:18Won't do any harm to pick up two pairs of shoes.
04:21It'll take you 25 or 30 minutes each way.
04:23I might see something else I might like.
04:25You never can tell what a woman's going to pick up when she goes to a sale.
04:28Oh, Mr. B.?
04:30Remember the time Missy and me went to buy them kitchen curtains?
04:33Oh, I'll never forget your face.
04:36We saved you over $300 on those bargains, George.
04:39Even if we didn't need them.
04:42You want to bet?
04:43Yes, I'll bet.
04:44Okay, it's a bet.
04:46That $9.95 will just pay my cab fare.
04:48Cab fare? Say, I'll be back here before that noon whistle starts blowing.
04:55Two cars in this family, and I've got to take a cab.
04:58Oh, she has loads of time, George.
05:01An hour and 20 minutes.
05:03Show me the woman who can go to a sale and get home in 80 minutes.
05:06I can't.
05:07She just left.
05:16Beautiful!
05:37What are you doing with the bicycles?
05:39We rented them. They've just been delivered.
05:42We've decided to take up bicycling again.
05:45Oh, I didn't know you knew how.
05:47Oh, Herbert's quite an expert.
05:49Oh, not expert, my dear, but above average, perhaps.
05:53Well, have a good time. Bye.
05:55Bye, Harriet.
05:56Bye.
05:59Well, Harriet, shall we start out?
06:01I'm ready if you are, Herbert.
06:04I wonder if I should get my goggle.
06:06Oh, I don't think you should race, Herbert.
06:08Let's ride slowly and enjoy.
06:11Very well, my dear.
06:16Ready?
06:17Ready.
06:18Then let's be off.
06:29Herbert, we don't seem to be moving.
06:32We aren't getting any traction.
06:34What should we do?
06:36Pedal faster, Harriet.
06:45Oh, well, he seems to be getting plenty of traction.
06:49Doesn't he? Perhaps it's because he has three wheels.
06:53No, I think there must be some special trick to it.
06:56Little boy!
06:57Here, little boy, would you mind stopping a moment?
07:00Here, little boy, hold on.
07:02Well, don't worry, Mr. Griffin.
07:04If Hazel isn't back in time, I'll take a cab.
07:06Oh, yes, right here in my briefcase.
07:09All right, I'll take a look.
07:12Dorothy, where's my briefcase?
07:15Oh, I don't know, darling. I didn't see it.
07:17Oh, my gosh, it's in the back of the car.
07:19Oh, no.
07:23Mr. Griffin, you know that old expression,
07:25this is going to give you a thousand laughs?
07:27Well, this is going to give you a thousand snarls.
07:30That briefcase of mine is in the back of the car.
07:34All right, Mr. Griffin, now take it easy.
07:36I'll phone the store and try to contact Hazel.
07:39All right. All right, goodbye.
07:47What's the matter?
07:49I have to get to General Hospital in a hurry, but I can't find a cab.
07:52What's the matter? You sick?
07:54No, no, I'm fine. It's...
07:55Oh, well, then I'm afraid I can't help you.
07:57I just came from that direction, and I'm in kind of a hurry.
07:59But my wife's there. She's having a baby.
08:01Oh, well, for Pete's sake, come on, get in.
08:03We can't let you miss that.
08:09Oh!
08:29Hold on, my dear. Hold on, Harry, a minute.
08:32I think there's something wrong.
08:39Now, what could have made it do a thing like that, Herbert?
08:42Simple, my dear.
08:44I must have run over a rock or some other sharp protuberance,
08:48which punctured the rubber, causing the air inside to burst forth.
08:52I see.
08:53The problem is to close up the hole, blow some air back into the tire,
08:58thus restoring it to its proper shape.
09:00How clever of you, Herbert.
09:02But how does one accomplish it?
09:04By reading the manual enclosed in this handy little tool kit.
09:09Herbert, you think of everything.
09:16Hello, Lady's Shoe Department?
09:18Lady's Lingerie?
09:20No, I asked for the Lady's Shoe Department.
09:24You're going to transfer me.
09:25Anybody can make a mistake, George.
09:28Lady's Shoe Department?
09:30Lost and found.
09:32I'm trying to reach the Lady's Shoe Department.
09:35Thank you very much.
09:37You're going to transfer me.
09:44I can't thank you enough.
09:45Oh, forget it. I hope it's a boy.
09:47Bye.
09:48Bye.
09:52I didn't ask for draperies.
09:54I asked for the Lady's Shoe Department.
09:57Please do.
09:58This is most urgent.
10:00They're going to transfer me.
10:09Hazel!
10:10Yoo-hoo! Hazel!
10:12Yoo-hoo! Hazel!
10:19Anything wrong?
10:20Oh, Hazel.
10:22It's just uncanny the way you arrived just at the right moment.
10:25You know, Herbert just said,
10:27Only Hazel were here.
10:29And I looked up, and there you were.
10:39You can't tell me there's nothing to mental telepathy, Herbert.
10:42Hazel must be psychic.
10:44Oh, nonsense, my dear.
10:45Sheer coincidence.
10:46But a most welcome coincidence indeed.
10:48Perhaps you can advise us, Hazel.
10:50What measures should we take to overcome this emergency?
10:53Oh, there's nothing to it.
10:57Yes.
10:58Now, is this the Lady's Shoe Department?
11:01Housewares?
11:03Look, what do you use for a switchboard down there, a roulette wheel?
11:07I'm trying to reach the Lady's Shoe Department.
11:11Thank you very much.
11:13Are they going to transfer you, George?
11:17Sorry.
11:19We needed Hazel, and somehow she read our minds.
11:23Well, I hate to interrupt this interesting discussion, but I gotta go.
11:26Oh, thank you so much, Hazel.
11:28Well done.
11:29Oh, Hazel, you got your hands all dirty.
11:32It'll all come out in a while.
11:33Oh, we're very grateful.
11:34That's all right.
11:35Glad to be of help.
11:38Well, if anyone has extra sensory perception, that person is Hazel.
11:43A remarkable woman, my dear.
11:45Remarkable.
12:05Va, va, muchachos.
12:06Ya nos vamos.
12:07Vengan, hijos.
12:08Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco.
12:10Six.
12:11Siete.
12:12Y ocho.
12:13Alla, muchachos, todos.
12:15Los niños al atras.
12:16No empujen, no empujen, no empujen.
12:18Un ultimo, hijita.
12:19Tú también metes al ultimo.
12:20Ya?
12:21OK, ya nos vamos.
12:26No gas today, Joe. I just want to wash my hands. I can't go shopping for $28 shoes
12:40with hands like this. Hi, honey. Mama, Papa. Holy cow. Oh, what's the matter, honey? Folks
13:02went off and left her. Holy cow. Oh, nothing to be scared of, honey. There's nothing to
13:08be scared of. I ain't got trouble enough. Short-handed on a Saturday, and now I got
13:12a lost kid on my hands. Oh, well, Joe, stop yelling. You're scaring the poor little thing
13:17more. It's all right, honey. Your folks will be right back. It may be hours before they
13:22miss her. There must have been a dozen kids in that wagon. What's your name, honey? My
13:26name is Hazel. What's your name? Oh, let's see now. My name is Anna Villanova. Anna?
13:33What's your name, then? My papa is Senor Pedro Villanova Y. Chavez. Please return me
13:41to the Mexican Embassy, Washington, D.C. Oh, it says, please do not feed me ice cream.
13:47I'm allergic to ice cream. Oh, for Pete's sake, what are the police going to do with
13:51a little lost kid that can't eat ice cream? Hazel, you keep an eye on her for me, will
13:56you, until the cops get here? Well, I'd like to, Joe, but Joe, I got to get the car back
14:00at 12 sharp, and it's... Oh, Carmine, look at the time. It's all right, honey. Don't
14:05be scared. He's a nice man. Oh, now, come on. There's nothing to be scared of, honey.
14:09I'll take you along with me. It's okay, Joe. I'll take her with me. Well, wait a minute.
14:14The police ain't going to like it, me letting you go off with a lost kid like that. Oh,
14:18well, you got a better suggestion? Just call Captain Montgomery and tell him that I've
14:24got Anna with me, and he can pick her up at the backstairs at 12 o'clock. Yes, yes,
14:31Mr. Griffin, I finally got the shoe department, but the clerk said no one there fits Hazel's
14:35description. Well, maybe she was held up in traffic. All right, all right, Mr. Griffin.
14:43Well? He said to keep trying, but I don't think I've got the strength. Darling, let
14:48me give it a try. Well, I'll bet you $5 you can't get a lady's shoes on the first try.
14:54Well, that's a bet. Now, I've just got one little errand to do, and then we'll go to
14:59our house and wait till your folks get there. Oh, my, they've got beautiful shoes here.
15:07Oh, honey, you, you, you come on over here. That's a girl. Now, you sit there, and don't
15:13you move, understand?
15:15Oh, uh, could you wait on me just a minute?
15:45Are you busy? Please, I, um, sorry.
15:52Hello, lady's shoe department? Oh, good. It's very important that I locate someone
16:00who may be shopping in your department. Yes, she'd be easy to identify. She's wearing
16:05a maid's uniform. Is there anyone? Oh, there is? Oh, oh, no, she wouldn't have a little
16:12girl with her. Thank you very much. That was a near miss, George.
16:18Well, Dorothy, where Griffin is concerned, near misses don't count.
16:21What are you going to do now? I'm going to do what any sensible man would
16:25have done a long time ago. I'm going to preserve my sanity by helping Harold put his airplane
16:30together. Please, please, little girl, don't play with
16:46merchandise. May I help you, madam?
17:06You can if you make it snappy. I'm 23 and a half minutes behind schedule.
17:10If madam will please take a seat, I'll be with you in a moment.
17:13Well, I don't have a moment. I've got to be on my horse in exactly five minutes.
17:16You don't have to worry about me. If I find anything, I'll just bring it to the desk
17:20myself. Now, the customers are not allowed behind
17:23the counter, madam. If you will please be seated, I will wait on you immediately.
17:28Oh, thank you. I want something smart, you know, but not
17:40too fancy. Um, navy, medium heel.
17:45Sorry, she can't eat ice cream, but I didn't think a balloon could hurt her.
17:50Sweet little thing, ain't she? Just as good as gold.
17:54You don't happen to speak Spanish, do you? Oh, never mind. I'm in a hurry.
18:00I'm afraid we haven't a large selection left in your size, madam.
18:04Well, just bring me everything you got. If you haven't got navy, I'll take black.
18:09Let's wait for Hazel, huh, Dad? Hazel says lawyers aren't supposed to be
18:27smart about things like this. I'm telling you, there's a piece missing.
18:35Maybe I can help. What are you looking for?
18:37X-207, and I'm telling you, there isn't any X-207.
18:41It's a little round thing that goes on there. Oh, is this it?
18:46Yeah. Well, Harold, what have you been doing,
18:49sitting on it? I'm sorry, son. Thanks.
18:55Haven't you got any blue? It don't have to be navy.
18:59Not in our sales items, I'm afraid. Oh, what about this beige?
19:05It's a neutral color, and it's a very fine street shoe if madam does a lot of walking.
19:09No, no, it wouldn't go with my new outfit. Haven't you got something else?
19:13Well, I did bring along this midnight blue, just in case.
19:19Oh, well, now, they're gorgeous. Oh, they're simply gorgeous.
19:24Boy, they'd even look good on my tugboat. If madam would allow me.
19:29No, if I gotta have your help, how am I gonna manage when I get home?
19:43How do they feel? Oh, they're fine.
19:48How do they feel? Oh, just like a bubble bath.
20:05Oh, they look beautiful on you, madam, most becoming.
20:08And they're the very latest style. As a matter of fact, this shoe hasn't even been put on display yet.
20:13I'll take them. Oh, of course, madam realizes, of course, that this is not one of our sale items.
20:18But they're an excellent value at $34.50. $34.50?
20:22Say, my time is running out. Haven't you got anything in $9.95 in my size?
20:28Madam has a difficult foot. Madam really shouldn't pass up a shoe like this.
20:31Well, madam wouldn't if madam had the money. Where's my old shoes?
20:35There you are.
20:37He did it! Of course he did it.
20:41Boy, Hazel is sure gonna be surprised.
20:44Nothing difficult about putting a thing like this together. It just takes time.
20:48And speaking of time, I better get a cab here if I want it to be here by noon.
20:51Hazel will be here, George. She promised. I'm not taking any chances.
20:58Hey, it's W for the Marham!
21:01Hey, it's W for the Marham!
21:23Mrs. Baxter? Pedro Villanueva and Chavez at your service.
21:27She's excited. At a moment like this, it's a woman's privilege, you understand?
21:33No, I don't understand. The child is ours.
21:36What child?
21:48Officer, who are these people? I want to know what's going on here.
21:51You're George Baxter? Yes, I am, and I want to know...
21:57I demand to know what's going on here!
22:01That's what we're all trying to find out, Mr. Baxter. These people report a missing child.
22:05A missing child? Well, what makes you think that we...
22:07Female, Caucasian, Mexican national, age six, dark hair and eyes.
22:11Well, I'm sorry, but why come here? I'm a respectable citizen and attorney.
22:15We received a message at 1121 a.m. that a woman named Hazel Burke...
22:21I should have known it.
22:24Hazel? Oh, well, everything's all right then.
22:27If your little girl is with Hazel, there's nothing to worry about.
22:30Hazel is absolutely marvelous with children.
22:34Where is this Hazel Burke?
22:36Oh, well, she should be home any minute now.
22:38You can depend on Hazel. She said she'd be here at 12 and...
22:45There, I told you.
22:47We don't know how to express our appreciation.
22:51Won't you come sit down in the living room? You must feel terrible after such an experience.
22:55Missy, how's about it if I fix some sandwiches and a nice pitcher of lemonade?
22:59Hazel, I demand to know the meaning of this.
23:01Where did you get this child?
23:03Just a minute, Mr. B.
23:05Baxter residence? Oh, hi. How are you?
23:09You're going to have to talk a little louder. I can't hear you.
23:13You're going to have to talk a little louder. I can't hear you.
23:16The noon whistle just started to blow.
23:19No, he ain't left yet, Mr. Griffin.
23:22You want to talk to him?
23:24Oh, okay, I'll tell him.
23:26Your luncheon meeting's been canceled.
23:29Hey, officer, I always did admire that uniform.
23:33You're Hazel Burke? I'd like to get a statement from you, Mrs. Burke.
23:36Oh, it's Miss.
23:38I know a lot of boys on the local force, but I don't believe we've ever met.
23:42I'm Cliff Anderson.
23:43Oh, Anderson. Straight ahead and to the left. The food's coming right up.
23:47There we are.
23:48Anderson, huh? Nice family, ain't they?
23:51Oh, well, you know, I met an Alice Anderson once, a real nice woman.
23:56She wouldn't happen to be your wife, would she, Sergeant?
23:59No, I'm not married.
24:01Oh, well, then I guess she couldn't be your wife.
24:03There we are.
24:05Well, I'd be happy to give you a statement, Sergeant.
24:07But you see, I'm pretty tied up. I've got to make lunch for this bunch.
24:11Maybe you'd like to come out in the kitchen while I'm doing it.
24:14I'll give you a ham sandwich and fix you a nice piece of chocolate cake.
24:17Huh? You know, while you're making out your report.
24:20I don't mind if I do.
24:21No hurry about that $9.95 you owe me, Mr. B.
24:24I couldn't find a pair of shoes in my size. I want it anyway.
24:29Sergeant, you go out in the kitchen. I'll be right with you.
24:34Morning wasn't a complete waste.
24:36Like I said, when a woman goes to a sale, you never know what she's going to pick up.
24:40Hey!
25:10This has been a Screen Gems film production.
