00:00:00Song of the Day
00:00:08Blondie
00:00:14Blondie!
00:00:16Song of the Day
00:00:19Pretty face, funny hat
00:00:21That's what my Blondie is
00:00:23Loveable feet, both flat
00:00:26That's what my dad would is
00:00:28Blondie's not always right. I let her think she is.
00:00:32All of my thoughts are bright, long as he thinks they're his.
00:00:36Life with us is fun and crazy, baby doubling.
00:00:40Us and Daisy are the family.
00:00:43Incredible! Bumsteadable!
00:00:45Hurry, you'll miss your bus.
00:00:47Watch out, you'll burn your stew.
00:00:49Nothing's too much for us, as long as with me there's you.
00:00:54Dagwood and Blondie.
00:00:55Blondie and Dagwood.
00:00:56Always with me there's you.
00:01:14Daddy.
00:01:15Huh?
00:01:16When does the vacation start?
00:01:20Any minute now.
00:01:23What if the boss calls it off like he did last time?
00:01:29Quit worrying.
00:01:31Every time I hear that telephone, I get goose pimples.
00:01:36Here you are, Daisy.
00:01:38Hey, Daisy.
00:01:41See you in two weeks.
00:01:54Oh.
00:02:06I bet that's the boss.
00:02:20Daisy.
00:02:24There's nobody here but us dogs.
00:02:39Is everybody ready?
00:02:41I've been ready for hours.
00:02:44Seat is at the front door, dear.
00:02:46It's just Daddy, I hope.
00:02:49Oh.
00:02:50Blondie.
00:02:52Open the door, will you?
00:02:56Dagwood, on your knees in your new suit.
00:03:01Won't you ever grow up?
00:03:17Dagwood.
00:03:18Huh?
00:03:19Look.
00:03:20You do?
00:03:22What is it?
00:03:23Why, it's my vacation hat, silly.
00:03:25Oh, it scared me.
00:03:28Scared you?
00:03:30Uh-oh.
00:03:31You don't like it.
00:03:33I do, too, like it.
00:03:35Well, you do not.
00:03:36You said it scared you.
00:03:37I didn't mean to say it scared me.
00:03:39I meant to say it surprised me.
00:03:42You think it's terrible.
00:03:43I can see it in your face.
00:03:45I do not think it's terrible.
00:03:46I think it's a swell hat.
00:03:48Don't you, Baby Duplin?
00:03:49Leave me out of this.
00:03:51I think you're horrible.
00:03:53You're just like a man.
00:03:55Blondie, please.
00:03:56I'm not like a man.
00:03:58I'm like a hat.
00:03:59I mean, I like the hat on.
00:04:01You've spoiled everything.
00:04:05Blondie, sweetheart, darling.
00:04:08Now we'll never get started.
00:04:12I'll fix it.
00:04:14You'll make it worse.
00:04:17Might as well sit down.
00:04:21Hello?
00:04:24Hello, Alvin.
00:04:27What made you hang up the telephone so quick?
00:04:30Scared?
00:04:31Uh-huh.
00:04:32Thought it was the boss.
00:04:33I wanted to wish you bon voyage.
00:04:37Now listen, Alvin.
00:04:39This is no time for big words.
00:04:43Mommy's upset.
00:04:46What's the matter?
00:04:47She bought a new hat.
00:04:49Who left?
00:04:51Nobody.
00:04:52It scared Daddy.
00:04:54Is the vacation off?
00:04:57We've started twice already.
00:05:00They're a good mommy and daddy.
00:05:02But sometimes it's mighty hard to live with them.
00:05:06Open the door, Blondie.
00:05:08Honest, I think it's a beautiful hat.
00:05:12Kid stuff.
00:05:15Blondie, please.
00:05:16Go away.
00:05:18Please, dear.
00:05:19It's almost train time.
00:05:20The taxi will be here any minute.
00:05:25Go away.
00:05:26I don't care what time it is.
00:05:39Mr. Bumstead?
00:05:40Hmm?
00:05:41I can tell you how to fix it.
00:05:43Don't listen to him, Daddy.
00:05:45He'll get you in trouble.
00:05:47No, I won't.
00:05:48Just forget all about her.
00:05:51Take your bags and start.
00:05:53She'll follow.
00:05:55Yeah?
00:05:56What if she doesn't?
00:05:58Now listen.
00:05:59The creator made us with twins.
00:06:02One on which to sit.
00:06:04The other with which to think.
00:06:06Our success depends on which one we use the most.
00:06:10Heads we win, tails we lose.
00:06:15Go on, try it.
00:06:21Come on, baby dumpling.
00:06:24Dagwood Bumstead, if you go out of this house and leave me, I'll never speak to you again.
00:06:31What'd they tell you?
00:06:57There's nobody home.
00:06:58They're on a vacation.
00:07:13That was a dirty double-crossing trick.
00:07:22Read this one, Mommy.
00:07:25All right.
00:07:28Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get her poor doggie a bone.
00:07:34Look, Mommy, look, look.
00:07:55Dagwood, wake up.
00:07:56What is it?
00:07:57What's wrong?
00:07:58Daisy's T-A-I-L.
00:08:01O-H.
00:08:03I mean, O.
00:08:26Sorry.
00:08:27It's all right.
00:08:37Your new hat, too.
00:08:40I said I was sorry.
00:08:41I didn't know his hat was on the floor.
00:08:43Well, you had your foot in it.
00:08:46Well, he did.
00:08:47I know, but let it drop.
00:08:48That's the trouble with you.
00:08:50You let people impose on you.
00:08:53Who's imposing on me?
00:08:55Yes, who?
00:08:57No one was speaking to you, and we'll thank you tomorrow.
00:09:00Read, Mommy.
00:09:02Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get her poor doggie a bone.
00:09:26We were just playing a game, Conductor.
00:09:37Of course, Conductor, and I'll show you how it goes.
00:09:40Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get her poor doggie a bone.
00:09:43I'm sorry, but dogs are not permitted in Pullman cars.
00:09:49He's not harming anybody if it hadn't been for that man.
00:09:53Take him up to the baggage car.
00:09:54Well, couldn't we...
00:09:56Go ahead, Bagwood.
00:09:58I want Daisy here.
00:10:00Now, he'll be all right.
00:10:02Come on, Daisy.
00:10:04I'll settle with you later.
00:10:14How would you like to hear about the Big Bad Wolf?
00:10:20Yes.
00:10:22Yes.
00:10:34If it wasn't for you, I'd have Daisy and I could go to sleep.
00:10:40I bet she can't sleep out there in that old baggage car.
00:10:46Well, if I had my way,
00:10:49you and your whole family would be in the baggage car.
00:11:18Bagwood, I think this is the most beautiful night I've ever seen.
00:11:23Except the night Baby Dumpling was born.
00:11:26Why, Blondie, I got soaking wet walking up and down in front of the hospital.
00:11:30It was a rainy night.
00:11:32Yes, but it was beautiful rain.
00:11:37Remember the night we met?
00:11:39You kidded me about my hair.
00:11:44I was kidding this morning, too.
00:11:47You don't like my new hat, either.
00:11:49Sure, I do.
00:11:51When are you going to wear it?
00:11:53Not until the vacation really begins.
00:11:55When you see me wearing that hat, we'll be going places.
00:11:59Going places. Just think, a vacation at last.
00:12:02No dishes to wash and no house to clean and no beds to make.
00:12:06Yeah, no pushing in the bus, no worrying about business.
00:12:09Nothing to do but play.
00:12:14Sure is a beautiful night.
00:12:18I wonder if we'll be like this when we get old.
00:12:21We'll be older.
00:12:22No, I don't mean that.
00:12:24I mean, I wonder if we'll be like us or like other people.
00:12:27Like us.
00:12:31I hope my hair turns gray.
00:12:34Don't worry, it will.
00:12:36And when Baby Dumpling grows up, he will grow up, you know, and get married.
00:12:43And poor Daisy.
00:12:45Daisy won't get married.
00:12:49Good evening.
00:12:51Mind if I sit down?
00:12:52Not at all.
00:12:54Beautiful night, isn't it?
00:12:55Bright.
00:12:57It seems as though the heavens are on fire.
00:13:02There.
00:13:03Here, try these.
00:13:05Thank you, thank you.
00:13:07Thank you indeed.
00:13:17These certainly are splendid matches.
00:13:23Marvelous.
00:13:27Oh, keep those.
00:13:29You're very kind, very kind.
00:13:31Gillis is my name.
00:13:32Jonathan N. Gillis.
00:13:33Mine's Dagwood Bumstead and this is Mrs. Bumstead.
00:13:36How do you do?
00:13:37Happy to know.
00:13:39Speaking of matches, do you realize that fire is man's best friend?
00:13:45Why, we couldn't exist without fire.
00:13:48It cooks our meals, it heats our houses, it turns the wheels of industry.
00:13:54When you have anything that has to be destroyed, what do you do with it?
00:13:58Burn it.
00:14:00Why, where would civilization be without fire?
00:14:04It doesn't matter.
00:14:05Where would the fireman be?
00:14:11Darling, don't you think we'd better go in now?
00:14:14Oh, I hope I'm not driving you away.
00:14:16Oh, no, not at all.
00:14:17We have a baby.
00:14:18We must go see how he is.
00:14:19Oh, well, I hope you find him all right.
00:14:21Oh, thank you.
00:14:22Good night.
00:14:23Good night.
00:14:24And thanks for the matches.
00:14:26Oh, that's all right.
00:14:27Good night.
00:14:36I thought you said eight.
00:14:37No, I said ten.
00:14:42Baby Dumplings, something's happened to him.
00:14:44Where could he have gone?
00:14:48That man.
00:14:55What'd you do with our baby?
00:14:57Answer me.
00:14:58Where's our baby?
00:14:59What'd you do with him?
00:15:00Speak up.
00:15:01I haven't seen your baby.
00:15:02I don't know anything about him.
00:15:05Say, what do you mean by waking me up like this?
00:15:07Come on, Dagwood.
00:15:08We'll go look for him.
00:15:13Pardon me, gentlemen.
00:15:14Has anybody seen a little boy about so big?
00:15:16I haven't seen anything bigger than an eight-spot all evening.
00:15:20Baby Dumpling.
00:15:22Baby Dumpling.
00:15:24Pardon me.
00:15:25That's where I get off.
00:15:31He couldn't possibly have fallen off the train.
00:15:33Oh.
00:15:34Bloddy don't.
00:16:04Gee, it's a big responsibility to be a father.
00:16:30Dagwood.
00:16:33Look.
00:16:34It's prettier than it was in the boulder.
00:16:39Oh boy, fishing.
00:16:41All those lovely trees.
00:16:50Mommy, baby likes the lovely trees too.
00:17:01Have a nice trip, Mr. Morton.
00:17:03Are those reservations coming along?
00:17:04Well, slowly as usual, I suppose.
00:17:10Dagwood.
00:17:20Look, Mommy.
00:17:22There's the big bad wolf.
00:17:34Would you like something facing the lake?
00:17:36Yes, I think that would be fine.
00:17:40No babies and dogs allowed.
00:17:42But Mr. Morton, I...
00:17:43It's a new rule.
00:17:44So it's you.
00:17:45It certainly is me.
00:17:46And get out before I have you thrown out.
00:17:49You mean you're not going to give us a room?
00:17:51Get out.
00:17:52You hear me?
00:17:53Get out!
00:17:54Don't you hear him, Dagwood?
00:17:57We didn't want to stay here anyways.
00:18:01I'm sorry to make a scene, sir.
00:18:03But when objectionable people try to gain admittance to this hotel...
00:18:06Objectionable?
00:18:07You are the objectionable one, sir.
00:18:09Your conduct is unforgivable.
00:18:11Those young people are friends of mine.
00:18:13Well, I'm sorry, sir, but you see, there are certain circumstances...
00:18:15You have a reservation here for Jonathan N. Gillis?
00:18:18Yes, sir.
00:18:20Reservation for Mr. Jonathan N. Gillis.
00:18:23When you find it, burn it.
00:18:35Barney!
00:18:41We passed this log before.
00:18:43I remember those three pine cones on it.
00:18:46You're wrong, darling.
00:18:48That was another log.
00:18:49It only had two cones on it.
00:18:53I put one on it every time we pass it.
00:18:56Well, baby dumpling, why didn't you say something about it before?
00:19:00I wasn't sure myself the first two times.
00:19:08Come on.
00:19:17No wonder we couldn't find it.
00:19:20Yeah, it's kind of quiet.
00:19:45How do you do?
00:19:46How do you do?
00:19:48Are there any rooms?
00:19:49Oh, yes.
00:19:50What is your rate?
00:19:51Oh, we have an excellent rate by the week.
00:19:53$30 with meals.
00:19:56Of course you needn't pay for the baby.
00:19:58I can let you have a large room on the lakeside.
00:20:00There's a beautiful view.
00:20:02I'll show it to you.
00:20:03Just follow me.
00:20:05Baby, you and Daisy wait here.
00:20:09Good evening.
00:20:10Matthew, I was going to show this lady and gentleman number 15.
00:20:13Perhaps you'd like to do it.
00:20:15This is my husband, Mr. Dickerson.
00:20:17Dear, this is...
00:20:18I'm here to meet Miss Bumstead.
00:20:19Glad to know you.
00:20:20Hello.
00:20:21How do you do?
00:20:22Right this way.
00:20:23I'll try to amuse the baby.
00:20:28What's your name?
00:20:29Baby dumpling.
00:20:31And this is Daisy.
00:20:33Are you having a nice vacation?
00:20:35Not yet.
00:20:46Oh.
00:20:50Do you like it?
00:20:51Why, it's lovely.
00:20:54Here's the bath.
00:20:57Both spigots are marked cold, but the one on the right is hot,
00:21:01if you let it run long enough.
00:21:03Well, the spigots in our bathroom are like that too,
00:21:05only the cold comes out of the hot.
00:21:08Oh, we'll get used to it.
00:21:09A real fireplace.
00:21:12Oh, Dagwood, it's heavenly.
00:21:16Well, there's only one thing.
00:21:18But your wife said $30 was meals.
00:21:20Yes, that's quite all right, only, you see, it's customary.
00:21:23That is, we consider it a sort of policy to get one week's rent in advance.
00:21:30Oh, sure.
00:21:40Ten, 20, 25, 30.
00:21:44Thank you, madam.
00:21:45I'll bring your grips up immediately.
00:21:48Mommy, is this where we live?
00:21:50Why, baby, how did you find us?
00:21:53I thought you'd like it, so I brought up your things.
00:21:56Oh, you shouldn't have carried those heavy bags.
00:21:59No.
00:22:00Emily, I've told you time after time.
00:22:03It was no trouble at all.
00:22:04Matthew, dear, Mr. Holden is downstairs.
00:22:07Oh.
00:22:09If you want anything, just ask.
00:22:16I think they're very nice.
00:22:17Yes, they are, but they act strange.
00:22:20I wonder if anything could be wrong around here.
00:22:22Dagwood, this is a vacation.
00:22:24Now, don't begin imagining things.
00:22:27Oh, dear, look at your child.
00:22:30Whenever he looks like that, he's my child.
00:22:34Baby, you have to be cleaned up.
00:22:36I thought this was a vacation.
00:23:07Pardon me.
00:23:08I'm out of magic.
00:23:09Could I...
00:24:06Shh.
00:24:37Shh.
00:24:57Dagwood, if you'll open the bags, I'll...
00:25:02Oh.
00:25:03Look, baby.
00:25:04Daddy has started a lovely fire.
00:25:07Now, don't get too close, dear.
00:25:09Mommy.
00:25:10Hmm?
00:25:11Do I hang my stockings up tonight?
00:25:14No, baby.
00:25:15This isn't Christmas.
00:25:16This is vacation.
00:25:20Oh, pardon me.
00:25:21Dagwood.
00:25:24What's the matter with you?
00:25:33Blondie, there's something wrong with this hotel.
00:25:35Nonsense.
00:25:36But it's true.
00:25:37I tell you, it's scary.
00:25:38Don't be scared, Daddy.
00:25:40We're with you.
00:25:43There's not a soul on this whole floor but us.
00:25:45Dagwood, that's silly.
00:25:47The rooms are vacant.
00:25:49Just the bare furniture, no linen, nothing.
00:25:53How did you find that out?
00:25:55Well, I want to start a fire and I didn't have any matches, so...
00:26:10Well, while I was gone, you...
00:26:14Didn't you?
00:26:19I didn't either.
00:26:24Baby dumpling, I cautioned you not to play with matches.
00:26:27I had him in the bathroom tidying them up.
00:26:32He couldn't.
00:26:34You couldn't.
00:26:36I couldn't.
00:26:38There wasn't anybody in the room but Daisy.
00:26:41Daisy, did you?
00:26:48I didn't either.
00:26:54It's only the fire.
00:26:57Yeah, sure.
00:26:59What are you scared about, Blondie?
00:27:01You act as if you'd seen a...
00:27:03G-H-O-S-T.
00:27:05Daddy, let's stay up tonight and see a ghost.
00:27:10Baby dumpling, there's no such thing as a ghost.
00:27:13Is there?
00:27:15Of course not.
00:27:17Besides, who ever heard of ghosts living in a hotel?
00:27:20All the ghost stories I've ever heard have been about...
00:27:25Empty houses.
00:27:30I guess we're just tired, that's all.
00:27:35Alan, Peck, give me the keys.
00:28:05What are you doing?
00:28:18Just sitting here.
00:28:20What are you sitting on?
00:28:24That settles it. Don't unpack.
00:28:27What are you going to do?
00:28:28I'm going to ask for our money back.
00:28:30I don't like this place.
00:28:31Wait a minute.
00:28:32We'll go with you.
00:28:34I can't assume the loan.
00:28:38But Mr. Holden, you're the president of the bank.
00:28:41Surely you can do something about it.
00:28:44You forget, Emily, that Morton purposely loaned you more than the bank could lend you now.
00:28:49He was determined to get control of your property.
00:28:52Of course, if your hotel was a thriving business, the bank could assume the loan.
00:28:56But under the present conditions, you just can't.
00:29:00Our only hope is Morton.
00:29:02You know how he is.
00:29:04Yes, he's ruthless.
00:29:06No use asking him for a favor.
00:29:08But Matthew, it's due tomorrow.
00:29:11Believe me, Emily, if there were any way...
00:29:13Thanks.
00:29:20I'm sorry, Matthew.
00:29:22Good night.
00:29:30Matthew, don't take it so hard.
00:29:34Matthew.
00:29:35There's one way out of it.
00:29:37I could kill him.
00:29:43Who's there?
00:29:46Mice.
00:29:51Oh.
00:29:52How do you do?
00:29:54Hello.
00:30:03Is there anything wrong?
00:30:05Oh, no, no, no.
00:30:07Nothing's wrong.
00:30:08Everything's just...
00:30:09Just dandy.
00:30:10Only...
00:30:11Only...
00:30:12Only...
00:30:14Only Mommy and Daddy are scared.
00:30:20That's silly.
00:30:26No, we're really not scared.
00:30:28But the bed seems a little...
00:30:31Well, there's not much going on around here, and...
00:30:34I understand, Mr. Buffsett.
00:30:36We have only one other guest besides you, Mr. Gillis.
00:30:40Oh, Mr. Gillis.
00:30:43We had to have some money to buy food.
00:30:46That's the reason why we asked for the rent in advance.
00:30:50Here's $25.
00:30:52I spent the rest of it.
00:30:54I'll repair it as soon as I can.
00:30:56I'm sorry.
00:31:15I feel terrible.
00:31:16Well, you've got $5.
00:31:18$5 isn't much.
00:31:20Mr. Dithers thought it was a lot when I asked for a raise.
00:31:23Dagwood, this is no time to think of ourselves.
00:31:26Those people are in trouble.
00:31:29Yeah.
00:31:30They're awfully old, aren't they?
00:31:33I wonder if we'll be like that when we get old.
00:31:36You said that last night.
00:31:39Yes.
00:31:40And when we get old, we'll be like them.
00:31:43Yes.
00:31:44And when we get old, we might need somebody to help us.
00:31:48I'll help you, Mommy.
00:31:57There's nobody to help them unless...
00:32:06You and Daisy stay here with the baggies, dear.
00:32:19Help me a bit, Daisy.
00:32:29We, uh, we were wondering if we could help.
00:32:35Oh, there's nothing that can't be fixed.
00:32:40Why is this hotel empty anyway?
00:32:42The owner of the hotel across the lake has seen to that.
00:32:45Morton?
00:32:46I knew there was something mean about that man.
00:32:49You know him?
00:32:50Yeah, he wouldn't let us in his hotel.
00:32:52What has he got against you people?
00:32:54He tricked us into remodeling this hotel.
00:32:57We had to borrow the money, and then he got control of the loan.
00:33:01He's going to take this place away from us tomorrow.
00:33:03Can't you borrow the money anywhere else?
00:33:05Mr. Holden said he couldn't lend us the money unless we had a thriving business.
00:33:09Who's Mr. Holden?
00:33:10President of the bank in the village.
00:33:13Thriving business.
00:33:15Rather impossible, isn't it?
00:33:17Nothing's impossible.
00:33:21We'll show him.
00:33:22We'll put this hotel in order.
00:33:24We'll paint signs.
00:33:26We'll meet the trains.
00:33:27We'll fill every room.
00:33:29Why, by tomorrow night, this will be the brightest spot in Lake Kenobi.
00:33:37We've been expecting this.
00:33:38The light company said they'd cut us off tonight unless the bill was paid.
00:33:42The candles, Emily.
00:33:49Stop it, Daisy.
00:33:51We've had trouble enough.
00:33:54They can't do that.
00:33:56Dagwood, telephone the light company and tell them you'll be responsible.
00:33:59Yes.
00:34:05They cut the phone off this morning.
00:34:07Oh.
00:34:11Well, don't you worry, folks.
00:34:13We'll send them a check in the morning.
00:34:15Dagwood will take care of everything.
00:34:17He'll act as manager.
00:34:19Yeah.
00:34:22Baby dumpling.
00:34:24Oh.
00:34:26You're a bad kitty.
00:34:28A bad kitty.
00:34:29Where's Daisy?
00:34:43This is it.
00:34:51Here you are.
00:34:52Keep the change.
00:34:53Thank you, sir.
00:34:54I still think you should have had breakfast up in the village.
00:35:23Hello!
00:35:26Hello!
00:35:45Oh, yeah!
00:35:53Daisy, what is it?
00:35:55Oh.
00:35:59I'm so sorry.
00:36:00We forgot to unlock the door.
00:36:02That's perfectly all right.
00:36:11Are you looking for someone?
00:36:12Yes.
00:36:13You said I'd find a Mr. Gillis here.
00:36:14Oh, yes.
00:36:16Well, can I have a room near him?
00:36:17I think I can give you the room next to him.
00:36:19Nobody's here but us.
00:36:24I wonder where all the bellboys are.
00:36:28I wonder where they are, too.
00:36:30This way, please.
00:36:34When Mr. Gillis gets back, I'll tell him you're in your room.
00:36:37Oh, wait a minute.
00:36:38Isn't he here?
00:36:39Oh, yes.
00:36:40But he went for a little walk.
00:36:41A walk?
00:36:42Listen, don't do anything about that room till I get back.
00:36:47Uncle Jonathan!
00:36:51Uncle Jonathan!
00:37:03Hello, Johnny, my boy.
00:37:07Were you looking for me?
00:37:08You promised you wouldn't run away again, didn't you?
00:37:11Run?
00:37:12I didn't run.
00:37:13No, I took a train.
00:37:14I came along in fine style.
00:37:17Have you any matches?
00:37:19Matches?
00:37:20Matches.
00:37:22I'm sorry, Johnny.
00:37:23I haven't a match.
00:37:24Will you have a cigar?
00:37:25No, thanks, Uncle Jonathan.
00:37:26Let's see.
00:37:38Oh, no, Johnny.
00:37:39How am I going to light my cigar?
00:37:41I'll light your cigar for you.
00:37:42Come on.
00:37:43Where are we going?
00:37:44Back to the city.
00:37:45Oh, Johnny, why do we have to do that?
00:37:47I like it here.
00:37:48It's so quiet and restful.
00:37:51And I like the young people who are helping at the hotel.
00:37:54You like them?
00:37:55Yes, they're very nice.
00:37:57Couldn't we stay here for a day or two?
00:38:01Do you promise to behave yourself?
00:38:04Very well.
00:38:05But no tricks, no.
00:38:06Thank you, Johnny.
00:38:07Thank you so much.
00:38:08No tricks whatsoever.
00:38:13Now.
00:38:32Baby dumpling.
00:38:33And you, Daisy.
00:38:34Now we'll have to do them all over.
00:38:35I'm surprised at you.
00:38:36You ought to be punished.
00:38:37I'll go sit in the corner.
00:38:38No, you won't, young man.
00:38:39You will stay right here and wipe the dishes.
00:38:40Now.
00:38:41Now.
00:38:42Now.
00:38:43Now.
00:38:44Now.
00:38:45Now.
00:38:46Now.
00:38:47Now.
00:38:48Now.
00:38:49Now.
00:38:50Now.
00:38:51Now.
00:38:52Now.
00:38:53Now.
00:38:54Now.
00:38:55Now.
00:38:56Now.
00:38:57Now.
00:38:58Now.
00:39:00Oh, me.
00:39:14Now try.
00:39:25Mommy.
00:39:26Hm?
00:39:27When are you going to wear your new hat?
00:39:30Oh, sometime, I guess, when our vacation really starts.
00:39:34Vacation. I could kick myself.
00:39:38Baby dumpling. How can you say such a thing?
00:39:41Why, that's wicked.
00:39:43When I'm doing dishes, I feel wicked.
00:39:45Baby dumpling.
00:39:48I can't help it. It brings out the worst in me.
00:39:54Mrs. Bumstead, something dreadful has happened.
00:39:57What is it?
00:39:58The vacuum cleaner won't work. I ripped the bag.
00:40:01Well, don't worry. Dagwood can fix it.
00:40:16See? He fixed the bus.
00:40:18Come on.
00:40:24Dagwood, you had it running. What did you stop it for?
00:40:34I think you did well to make it go at all.
00:40:36What do you think the trouble is, Mr. Bumstead?
00:40:39A couple of cylinders are missing.
00:40:41Well, they must be around here somewhere. We'll just look till we find them.
00:40:45Blondie, they're here, but they're missing.
00:40:50Now, Dagwood, that doesn't make sense.
00:40:52How could they be here if they're missing?
00:40:55Look, Blondie, there are six cylinders.
00:40:58One, two, three, four, five.
00:41:06See? You've got to count them right.
00:41:08Well, here I go.
00:41:10Did you get Mr. Dickerson the check?
00:41:16Don't forget to pay the light bill and the telephone.
00:41:20Yes, and the telephone.
00:41:23Let's stay here, Daisy.
00:41:29Careful, Matthew.
00:41:38I should have given him the hammer, Daddy.
00:41:46Mommy.
00:42:10Mommy, did you know today's your birthday?
00:42:14I think I knew today was my birthday.
00:42:17How did you know that?
00:42:18Daddy told me so that if he forgot, I could remind him.
00:42:23You haven't reminded him yet, have you?
00:42:26No, I'm giving him a chance to think of it himself.
00:42:30Well, don't remind him.
00:42:37Daisy, Daisy, Daisy, Daisy, Daisy.
00:42:40Oh, Daisy.
00:42:44Come on, Daisy, Mommy. She still thinks we're on a vacation.
00:42:48Baby, you and Daisy go out and watch for the bus.
00:42:51All right.
00:43:14Mommy.
00:43:18Mommy.
00:43:20Mommy.
00:43:25Mommy.
00:43:27Mommy.
00:43:35Mommy.
00:43:38Mommy.
00:43:40Dear.
00:43:45Mommy.
00:43:57What is it?
00:43:58Oh, look.
00:44:00Why don't you turn it off?
00:44:01I can't. The switch is on the handle.
00:44:04Dagwood.
00:44:07Mommy.
00:44:12Are you hurt?
00:44:14Mommy, Mommy.
00:44:16The bus is coming.
00:44:18Oh, my goodness. Oh, Dagwood.
00:44:21Hurry and get your coat.
00:44:23Huh? Oh, the coat.
00:44:27Shh. Daisy, hush.
00:44:29Hurry up, Dagwood.
00:44:31Oh, Dagwood, you can't put the coat on until you take the coveralls off.
00:44:35Is there a fresh sheet in the register?
00:44:37I'll look and see. Yes, there is one.
00:44:40I wonder if we have enough rooms made up.
00:44:42All the rooms are ready.
00:44:44Now, you see, darling, didn't I tell you everything would be all right?
00:44:47I hope so.
00:44:49I hope so.
00:44:51Now, baby, remember what Mommy told you to do.
00:44:53Dagwood, you take care of the baggage.
00:44:56You know, I don't know. I have a feeling something's wrong.
00:44:59It's Daddy.
00:45:01Oh.
00:45:06Mommy.
00:45:08Now, what is it?
00:45:10My pants are in there and the door's locked. Where are the keys?
00:45:13Well, I gave them to you this morning. What did you do with them?
00:45:16Well, I gave them to you this morning. What did you do with them?
00:45:19Well, I gave them to you this morning. What did you do with them?
00:45:24They're in there in my pants pocket.
00:45:26Oh, goodness.
00:45:30Now, see what you've done.
00:45:32Oh, dear, there they come. You'll have to hide.
00:45:35Where do I hide?
00:45:36In there.
00:45:38And it's locked.
00:45:40Oh, Dagwood, hide someplace.
00:45:44Here, Daddy.
00:45:47Oh, you're always showing off.
00:45:49We haven't time to correct him now. Put them on.
00:45:51Come on, baby.
00:46:10Are you Mr. Bumstead?
00:46:12Yes, sir. Welcome to Westview Inn.
00:46:16Mr. Bumstead, how about this plumbing bill for $22?
00:46:19I'm from the bakery. It's a little matter of $14.
00:46:22Mr. Bumstead, this grocery bill is long overdue.
00:46:24Tim, not George.
00:46:26I told you gentlemen that Mr. Bumstead had nothing to do with this.
00:46:29He's a guest.
00:46:30It says acting manager on that sign.
00:46:32Now, listen. He paid the telephone and light bill, and we want ours.
00:46:35We certainly do. Now, look here.
00:46:37What's the matter, honey?
00:46:39That guy who wanted $0.39 interest burned me up.
00:46:43It cost us $416.52.
00:46:49Haven't you even any checks left?
00:46:51There are a few upstairs in my bag.
00:46:53I'll get them for you.
00:46:55Thank you, Mr. Bumstead.
00:46:57Mr. Bumstead.
00:46:59Mr. Bumstead.
00:47:01Mr. Bumstead.
00:47:03Mr. Bumstead.
00:47:05There are a few upstairs in my bag,
00:47:07but they're not much good.
00:47:09We only have $30.18 left in the bank.
00:47:12It says $20.18.
00:47:14I know, but I always have $10 that I pretend I haven't got
00:47:18in case I spend more than I thought I had.
00:47:25Mr. Bumstead, I'd like nothing better than to help,
00:47:28but unfortunately, that mortgage is held by Morton, not us.
00:47:32I sincerely believe that if you had a chance,
00:47:34you could build that hotel into a thriving business.
00:47:37And I assure you that if I could see any promise of that,
00:47:40I'd be more than happy to offer you financial assistance.
00:47:43Then what should I do?
00:47:45Get an extension.
00:47:47I've an idea that Morton would listen to you.
00:47:49Why don't you have a talk with him?
00:47:51That's a good idea, only...
00:47:53Do you know Morton?
00:47:55Well, yes and no. Mostly yes.
00:47:58Well, you can't get killed for trying.
00:48:01No, I can't get killed.
00:48:03Under the law, Morton can take possession at midnight,
00:48:06and I imagine he will unless someone...
00:48:08I'll do it. I've got to do it.
00:48:11I'll telephone him that you're coming over.
00:48:31I...
00:49:02Call the fire department! Ring the alarm bell!
00:49:05Get the fire extinguishers! Get the sheriff!
00:49:08And get him!
00:49:32Come on, get back!
00:49:45Come on, baby.
00:49:47How much did they charge?
00:49:49They charged starting a fire in a restricted area,
00:49:52trespassing, creating a disturbance,
00:49:54and other things I didn't understand.
00:49:56Anyhow, it cost $30.18.
00:50:01Well, how do you suppose they knew that's all we had?
00:50:06You wouldn't think that man Morton would be able to exist in a community like this.
00:50:10It's too bad his hotel didn't burn down instead of the bus.
00:50:15Say, Johnny...
00:50:17Keep packing, Uncle Jonathan.
00:50:27I'm going into that hotel and tell that man just what I think of him.
00:50:30Now, Blondie, one of us has to have some sense.
00:50:37Here, kitty, kitty, kitty. Here, kitty.
00:50:46You're a nice kitty, but you have a funny tail.
00:50:51Doesn't he, Daisy?
00:51:00Meow!
00:51:08Baby Dumpling!
00:51:12Daisy, come back here!
00:51:14Baby Dumpling, what have you done?
00:51:22He wasn't a nice kitty, was he, P.U.?
00:51:31Here, Daisy. Daisy!
00:51:48And it be the trees that fill the breeze
00:51:53With rare and magic perfume
00:51:57Oh, no, it isn't the breeze
00:52:02It's love in bloom
00:52:07Can it be the spring that seems to bring
00:52:12The stars right into my room
00:52:16Oh, no
00:52:19Get me the engineer.
00:52:28Thank goodness nobody saw us.
00:52:30Come on, baby.
00:52:39Hey, you!
00:52:43Come on!
00:52:45Everybody's leaving!
00:52:51Is that all of the bumpstead's baggage?
00:52:54Yes. It's all here.
00:52:59Matthew, it took us many years to get this all together.
00:53:03And now...
00:53:05Yes, certainly.
00:53:07But I don't feel so badly for ourselves as I do for those young people.
00:53:11We've caused them an awful lot of trouble.
00:53:14Hurry, baby! What's happened?
00:53:17There's a mob after us!
00:53:19What's the matter?
00:53:21There's a crowd of people after the bumpsteads.
00:53:23Let's go upstairs, Uncle Jonathan.
00:53:24Oh, now, Johnny!
00:53:25Do as I say.
00:53:39Baby, don't leave. You and Daisy stay here.
00:53:42Come on, Dagwood.
00:53:46A miracle!
00:53:47I skunk!
00:53:49I don't know how you did it, but you did it.
00:53:51Good girl.
00:53:52Oh, thanks.
00:53:54Mrs. Dickerson, Baby Dumpling's clothes must be changed.
00:53:57Can you attend to it for me?
00:53:58Of course.
00:54:00Mr. Dickerson, will you and Mr. Larkin take the desk?
00:54:05Dagwood, you handle the baggage.
00:54:08Why don't you let Mr. Larkin handle the baggage?
00:54:11I'm the acting manager.
00:54:13This is no time to quibble over position.
00:54:16And stop acting jealous.
00:54:19Ladies and gentlemen!
00:54:20Ladies and gentlemen!
00:54:22Ladies and gentlemen, if you'll just have patience,
00:54:25we'll try to accommodate every one of you.
00:54:27The hotel is practically...
00:54:29What I'm trying to say is, we have quite a bit of room,
00:54:32so if you'll just make yourselves at home and wait...
00:54:35That's fine.
00:54:36Come on, let's go.
00:54:44Boy! Oh, boy!
00:54:49Ladies and gentlemen, just a minute.
00:54:53On behalf of the Lake Hotel,
00:54:55I wish to apologize for this inconvenience
00:54:58and to express my apologies in something more tangible than words.
00:55:02I would like to have you all be my guests at either hotel
00:55:05for the remainder of the evening.
00:55:17The hotel for the remainder of this week.
00:55:21The animals have been driven out
00:55:23and my hotel will be ready for occupancy tomorrow.
00:55:26Come on, Daisy.
00:55:27We'll go back to his old hotel
00:55:29and chase the kiddies in again.
00:55:33This seems a fitting time for me to announce
00:55:35that this hotel will be my property after midnight.
00:55:41Therefore, the temporary management
00:55:45cannot object to my bringing my staff here
00:55:47to make you comfortable.
00:55:54Now, just a minute, please.
00:55:56If you all go to the desk, you'll be assigned your rooms.
00:55:59Good night, and I'll see you in the morning.
00:56:05Dagwood, are you going to let that man get away with this?
00:56:09Now, just a minute, you can't...
00:56:11I'm having a restraining order issued
00:56:13to prevent you leaving this county.
00:56:15I'm bringing a damage suit against you tomorrow,
00:56:18and it's going to cost you plenty.
00:56:30Uncle Jonathan!
00:56:31Come on now, Johnny.
00:56:39I've been dreading to tell you about this, my boy.
00:56:42About what?
00:56:44My nephew Larkin.
00:56:46He's not to be trusted.
00:56:49Look at him.
00:56:54There's a skunk in this hotel, too.
00:56:58Take your hands off my wife!
00:57:09I think I'll take a little walk.
00:57:12Dagwood Bumstead, I warned you
00:57:14that the next time you showed that vicious, jealous streak,
00:57:17I'd leave you.
00:57:18And this is the next time, and I'm leaving!
00:57:21But, Miss Barney, dear, I only pushed him.
00:57:24Don't you touch me.
00:57:26For years, we planned this vacation, so what happened?
00:57:29You brought me up here and got me in all this mess,
00:57:32mixed up with a lot of trouble and a lot of skunks,
00:57:35and I've stood for it all because I loved you,
00:57:38and I'll always love you,
00:57:40but today was my birthday,
00:57:42and you didn't even remember it!
00:57:44Miss Barney!
00:57:45Mr. Bumstead, he disappeared!
00:57:47Disappeared? Who?
00:57:49The baby!
00:57:50Baby Dumpling, where was he?
00:57:52In the storeroom.
00:57:53I left him alone a minute when I got back, he was gone.
00:57:57Where's Uncle Jonathan?
00:57:58Now, now, Mr. Larkin, Mr. Gillis is all right.
00:58:01He just went for a little walk.
00:58:05Oh, oh.
00:58:13Well, how's everything?
00:58:14Oh, we located the skunks all right.
00:58:16They're in the pipes on the second floor.
00:58:17Well, then get them out!
00:58:18Well, every time we try to get at them,
00:58:20it just stirs them up and makes matters worse,
00:58:22so we took out the fan and opened the pipe outlets,
00:58:24and they'll wander out during the night.
00:58:26Good. This hotel must be ready for occupancy tomorrow.
00:58:28Oh, not just a minute, Mr. Larkin.
00:58:30You won't be able to use this hotel for several months.
00:58:33The carpets and the drapes.
00:58:34For months?
00:58:35Why, that'll ruin me.
00:58:36What are you talking about?
00:58:37Well, evidently you don't know much about skunks.
00:58:40Any time you've had them around,
00:58:41you ought to burn everything, even your clothes.
00:58:44Burn everything?
00:58:45Well, I'm sorry, sir, but that's the way it is.
00:58:47We'll be here early in the morning.
00:58:49Good night.
00:58:59That's enough, Daisy.
00:59:00Come back now.
00:59:01Daisy!
00:59:04Daisy!
00:59:05Get lost!
00:59:34Come on.
01:00:04Come on.
01:00:20Come on, Daisy, let's get out of here now.
01:00:27Now, now, dear, everything's going to be all right.
01:00:30Did he ever run away before?
01:00:33But not at night.
01:00:35They'll find him, dear.
01:00:37Maybe he's with Mr. Gillis.
01:00:57Don't be scared, Daisy.
01:00:59Be like me, I'm not scared.
01:01:02Come on.
01:01:17Did you find him?
01:01:22I've been all around the lake.
01:01:24Don't worry, dear, he'll be all right.
01:01:27Everybody's looking for him.
01:01:29We'll find him.
01:01:30I'm not worried.
01:01:32You're the one that's worried.
01:01:34No, I'm not.
01:01:35I'm just tired.
01:01:41Did you see my uncle?
01:01:54How could it be?
01:01:57I didn't...
01:01:58Mommy!
01:01:59Mommy!
01:02:01Mommy!
01:02:02Mommy!
01:02:03Mommy!
01:02:05Mommy!
01:02:06Mommy!
01:02:10They're going to tell us, Bernie.
01:02:11They're going to see the place from upstairs.
01:02:14Oh!
01:02:26Mommy!
01:02:27Daddy!
01:02:28I wonder if they'll be jumping.
01:02:30No, no, certainly not.
01:02:32Of course not.
01:02:33Come in, dear.
01:02:39Well, that's the end of the lake hotel.
01:02:41Thank goodness we all got out.
01:02:49Mommy!
01:02:51Mommy!
01:02:52Mommy!
01:03:02Open the door.
01:03:03It's locked.
01:03:05This is a fine time to lock a door.
01:03:08Where's the key?
01:03:09Baby.
01:03:10Baby, have you seen the key?
01:03:15Come on, hurry.
01:03:16Find the key.
01:03:30Come on, let's get out of here.
01:03:40Come on.
01:03:57Mommy!
01:03:58Daddy!
01:04:10Nobody can deny.
01:04:12Nobody can deny.
01:04:14Nobody can deny.
01:04:16What are they singing about?
01:04:18He's a jolly good fellow.
01:04:20He's a jolly good fellow.
01:04:22Nobody can deny.
01:04:24Nobody can deny.
01:04:26Nobody can deny.
01:04:28He's a jolly good fellow.
01:04:30He's a jolly good fellow.
01:04:32He's a jolly good fellow.
01:04:34Nobody can deny.
01:04:37Oh, baby dumplings.
01:04:39Baby dumplings.
01:04:41Uncle Jonathan, he saved the baby's life.
01:04:43Mr. Gillis, how can I ever thank you?
01:04:47Don't bother, my dear, don't bother.
01:04:49Thank you, Mr. Gillis.
01:04:50Not at all, not at all, my boy, not at all.
01:04:52Uncle Jonathan.
01:04:53Oh, hello, Johnny, my boy.
01:04:55Come on, Uncle Jonathan.
01:04:56Just a minute, come on.
01:04:57Come on, Uncle Jonathan.
01:04:59Let me take him, dear.
01:05:01Oh, no, no.
01:05:02Nobody's going to take him ever.
01:05:06Uncle Jonathan, why did you break your promise to me?
01:05:09Promise?
01:05:11Promise?
01:05:12I never broke any promise, Johnny, my boy.
01:05:14Oh, this is going to cost us every cent we have.
01:05:20This is the man.
01:05:21You're under arrest.
01:05:22The charge is arson.
01:05:25No, no.
01:05:26But I never did.
01:05:28Of course he never.
01:05:29Sheriff Weaver, this is an outrage.
01:05:31Well, he's going to jail.
01:05:32And as far as you're concerned, you'll be out of this hotel in a few minutes.
01:05:35Take him along.
01:05:37All right.
01:05:38I don't mind going.
01:05:39I don't mind anything.
01:05:41As long as Baby Dumplin' is found.
01:05:43Dagwood?
01:05:46Uncle Jonathan, are you going to let that boy go to jail for what you did?
01:05:50But I didn't, Johnny, my boy.
01:05:52I had nothing to do.
01:05:55I was going to.
01:05:56But some dirty dog beat me to it.
01:05:59You be a good boy and mind Mommy, Baby Dumplin'.
01:06:01Baby Dumplin'?
01:06:05Daddy, there's the man that set the hotel on fire.
01:06:10What man?
01:06:11Him.
01:06:14Baby Dumplin', are you sure of what you're saying?
01:06:17He burned his finger.
01:06:19Look.
01:06:21Why, that's absurd.
01:06:23Me burn my own hotel?
01:06:25I lost everything I had.
01:06:27You didn't lose the money or the papers.
01:06:29What money and papers?
01:06:31He put them in his pocket.
01:06:33Daisy saw him, too.
01:06:35Didn't you, Daisy?
01:06:38Sheriff, I think we have a right to see if the baby's telling the truth.
01:06:41Why don't you search him?
01:06:42You have no right to search me.
01:06:45Wait a minute.
01:06:46You can't...
01:06:52It was an accident.
01:06:53Take him out, boys.
01:06:58Uncle Jonathan?
01:06:59You gave me a terrible scare.
01:07:01Don't worry, my boy.
01:07:02It'll never happen again.
01:07:04Mr. Holden, the Westview Inn is the only hotel in Lake Kenobi now.
01:07:08I guess it'll do a thriving business, won't it?
01:07:11You've given us a new life.
01:07:13Mr. Holden, I'd like to arrange for the Bumsteads to have a half interest.
01:07:18Just think, dear.
01:07:19A half interest.
01:07:20No.
01:07:21Oh, no.
01:07:22We don't want a half interest.
01:07:24All we want is $446.70.
01:07:28Oh, but Blondie...
01:07:30Um, excuse us for a minute, please.
01:07:36Dagwood, we're not going into the hotel business.
01:07:39We'll stay just like we are, in our own house, in our own neighborhood.
01:07:43I want to know where everything is, including Baby Dumpling.
01:07:49For half a minute, I was a half a hotel owner.
01:07:59I'm sorry.
01:08:18Where are we going?
01:08:20Home.
01:08:23Home?
01:08:24I sure am glad, because I think I left the water running in the bathtub.
