00:00:00Aren't the clouds beautiful?
00:00:10They look like big balls of cotton.
00:00:15I could just lie here all day and watch them drift by.
00:00:21If you use your imagination, you could see lots of things in the cloud formations.
00:00:26What do you think you see, Linus?
00:00:29Well, those clouds up there look to me like the map of the British Honduras on the Caribbean.
00:00:37That cloud up there looks a little like the profile of Thomas Eakins, the famous painter
00:00:42and sculptor.
00:00:43And that group of clouds over there gives me the impression of the stoning of Stephen.
00:00:48I can see the Apostle Paul standing there to one side.
00:00:52Uh-huh, that's very good.
00:00:54What do you see in the clouds, Charlie Brown?
00:00:58Well, I was going to say I saw a ducky and a horsey, but I changed my mind.

00:05:46Hey!
00:05:47Hey!
00:05:48Hey!
00:05:49Hey!
00:05:51Take it.
00:05:53Take it.
00:05:55Get it out of my sight.
00:05:57Anybody who can fly this kite is a genius.
00:06:20My heart is full on the day I first go out to the old ball field.
00:06:35I love the memories.
00:06:39I love the smell of the horse hide.
00:06:44I love the smell of the grassy outfield and the dusty infield.
00:06:50I love the hopes and the dreams for the new season.
00:06:54Ah, there it is, the old pitcher's mound, covered with tradition and dandelions.
00:07:01Dandelions?
00:07:04This pitcher's mound is covered with dandelions.
00:07:07Don't touch them, Charlie Brown.
00:07:10Don't you dare hurt all those innocent dandelions.
00:07:14They're beautiful.
00:07:16Don't you dare cut them down.
00:07:20Besides, you may not know it, but you look kind of cute standing there surrounded by dandelions.
00:07:30I don't want to look cute.
00:07:46Don't you dare hurt all those innocent dandelions.
00:08:16¶¶
00:08:45¶¶
00:09:14¶¶
00:09:43¶¶
00:10:12¶¶
00:10:32All right, Charlie Brown, let's get our signals straight.
00:10:36One finger will mean the high straight ball.
00:10:39Two fingers will mean the low straight ball.
00:10:41What about my curve ball?
00:10:43And my slider?
00:10:45And my knuckleball?
00:10:46And my sidearm?
00:10:48And my submarine pitch?
00:10:50One finger will mean the high straight ball.
00:10:53And two fingers will mean the low straight ball.
00:10:58Hey, what's this?
00:11:01What in the world are all these dandelions doing on the pitcher's mound?
00:11:06They grew there, and the girls on our team won't let me cut them down.
00:11:11They say they're pretty, and they say I look cute standing here among them.
00:11:20They're right.
00:11:22You do look kind of cute standing there.
00:11:25¶¶
00:11:54¶¶
00:12:12Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown, it's taking you too long to get dressed after every pitch.
00:12:18If you can't get dressed a little faster, we'll never get through the first inning.
00:12:23¶¶
00:12:31Wait!
00:12:35Rush this guy back, Charlie Brown.
00:12:38Give him the old bean ball.
00:12:40No, I can't do that.
00:12:42It wouldn't be right.
00:12:44It wouldn't be right?
00:12:46Who's gone moral on us all of a sudden?
00:12:49Oh, wishy-washy here is too moral to throw a bean ball.
00:12:53What about the way the early settlers treated the Indians?
00:12:56Was that moral?
00:12:58How about the children's crusade?
00:13:00Was that moral?
00:13:02And Harper's Ferry?
00:13:04Do you call those morality?
00:13:06Our whole system of freeways is a perfect example of what I'm trying to say.
00:13:10Have you listened to the radio lately?
00:13:12How about this whole conservation situation?
00:13:15We never win any ball games, but we sure have some interesting discussions.
00:13:20¶¶
00:13:27Shhh!
00:13:29What happened?
00:13:31Charlie Brown got hit by a line drive.
00:13:34Does anyone here know anything about first aid?
00:13:37It's probably not serious.
00:13:39Second or third aid will do.
00:13:41Run over to the drinking fountain and soak this handkerchief in cold water.
00:13:48You're kidding.
00:13:50With a head like Charlie Brown's, you'll need a bed sheet.
00:13:54I'm dying, and all I hear are insults.
00:13:58What happened?
00:14:00You got hit on the head with a line drive, Charlie Brown.
00:14:03I don't understand it.
00:14:05I used to be able to dodge those line drives.
00:14:08When you get old, your reflexes really slow down.
00:14:38¶¶
00:15:08¶¶
00:15:29Well, we lost the first game of the season again.
00:15:33I should admit it bothered me, but it does.
00:15:37We always seem to lose the first game of the season and the last game of the season.
00:15:42¶¶
00:15:52And all those stupid games in between!
00:15:55In the big leagues, the ball players get sent to the showers.
00:16:00I get sent to take a bath.
00:16:06Nothing ever seems to go right for me.
00:16:10I can't fly a kite, and I lose every ball game I play in.
00:16:15I just can't seem to do anything right.
00:16:19¶¶
00:16:24Hi, Charlie Brown.
00:16:27You're depressed, aren't you?
00:16:29I suppose you forgot we lost another ball game.
00:16:32I did not.
00:16:34Today's game made our 99th straight loss without a win.
00:16:41That wasn't a very good game today, Charlie Brown.
00:16:44I know it.
00:16:46I'm getting tired of losing all these ball games.
00:16:49And this was going to be our big year.
00:16:52The year when it looked like we might even score our first run.
00:16:58I think it would be kind of fun to win once in a while.
00:17:03Winning isn't everything.
00:17:05But losing isn't anything.
00:17:08Look at it this way, Charlie Brown.
00:17:10We learn more from losing than we do from winning.
00:17:13I guess that makes me the smartest person in the whole world.
00:17:18I think you just talk yourself into being a loser, Charlie Brown.
00:17:22I really don't believe in this business of some people being born losers.
00:17:28If you keep on doing different things, you're going to win.
00:17:31Just as much as anyone else.
00:17:33Just keep trying, Charlie Brown. Don't give up.
00:17:36You'll win your share of ball games.
00:17:38I just don't think it's possible for someone to lose everything all the time.
00:17:43One of these days, you'll win.
00:17:47You'll win your share of ball games.
00:18:17You'll win your share of ball games.

00:20:59Bleh!
00:21:01Sometimes I get so discouraged I can hardly stand it.
00:21:03Harder I try the worse I get.
00:21:05The harder I try, the worse I get.
00:21:08Perhaps I should seek professional help.
00:21:14I think I need help.
00:21:16Hmm.
00:21:17Everything I do turns to failure.
00:21:20I guess you know I've never succeeded
00:21:22at anything in my whole life.
00:21:24Charlie Brown, it's true.
00:21:27I recognize your frailties, your weaknesses.
00:21:31You need me to point out your faults, Charlie Brown.
00:21:34It's for your own good.
00:21:36Besides, I can do it for you better than anyone else.
00:21:41My system is unique.
00:21:44What's so unique about it?
00:21:47Come and sit down, Charlie Brown.
00:21:50I'll explain my unique system.
00:21:52Make yourself at home, Charlie Brown.
00:21:55I'll set up my equipment.
00:21:58See what I've done?
00:21:59I put all of your faults on slides.
00:22:02We're going to project your faults onto a screen.
00:22:07Good grief.
00:22:08Project my faults onto a screen?
00:22:18Now, watch carefully.
00:22:21Here we see your failure to observe
00:22:24the world in upright position.
00:22:26Here we see your lack of coordination, Charlie Brown.
00:22:30And here we see your lack of style.
00:22:32Now, onto your physical faults.
00:22:35These slides will show your tendency toward fatness.
00:22:39Look at that stomach.
00:22:41Even your nose is fat, and your legs.
00:22:44Why, I'll bet if the truth were known, even your toes are fat.
00:22:53Now we're really going to get down to business.
00:22:56The next batch of slides will show your biggest and most
00:23:00damaging faults.
00:23:02These could take about an hour to show.
00:23:12No, no.
00:23:14Ugh, turn it off.
00:23:16I can't stand it any longer.
00:23:18I can't stand to watch.
00:23:19I can't stand it.
00:23:20I can't stand it.
00:23:23One moment there, Charlie Brown.
00:23:27Relax here a while, Charlie Brown.
00:23:29We'll solve this problem together.
00:23:32The way I see it, your problem is one of emotions.
00:23:36When you have emotional problems,
00:23:38it is usually because you have no outlets.
00:23:41You need emotional outlets.
00:23:43I need emotional outlets.
00:23:48What kind of emotional outlets would you suggest?
00:23:51This football is a perfect answer.
00:23:53There's no better emotional outlet than kicking a football.
00:23:57To sum it all up in one phrase, Charlie Brown,
00:24:00you could kick away your faults.
00:24:05Boy, you must think I'm stupid.
00:24:08You just want to hold that football
00:24:10and have me come running up to kick at it
00:24:13so you can pull it away and see me fall flat on my back.
00:24:16The cure is up to you, Charlie Brown.
00:24:19Do you want to kick the habit or don't you?
00:24:24Perhaps you'd rather have another viewing
00:24:27session of all your faults on those slides?
00:24:30All right, all right.
00:24:32I'll try it, I'll try it.
00:24:34No more slides.
00:24:36You won't be disappointed, Charlie Brown.
00:24:39This time, I have a little extra surprise as a bonus.
00:24:50Why, oh, why do I let her do this to me?
00:24:53Why, why?
00:24:57Maybe she's right.
00:25:00After all, if you can't trust your own psychiatrist,
00:25:03who can you trust?
00:25:06This time, I'm really going to kick it.
00:25:08I'm going to kick the habit.
00:25:09This is the end of all my faults.
00:25:12Ugh!
00:25:15And now for the surprise.
00:25:17Would you like to see how that looked on instant replay?
00:25:21Instant replay?
00:25:24Dee doo, hum hum hum, dee dum, hum dee dum.
00:25:28Here you are, Charlie Brown.
00:25:29Now I'm going to run through this at slow motion.
00:25:33I think we must carefully analyze your every move,
00:25:36your every expression.
00:25:38Mm-hmm, dee da da, mm-hmm, dee dee.
00:25:42See how erratic your movements are?
00:25:46Look at your face.
00:25:47Those bad personality traits we spoke about stand out clearly.
00:25:53Now, see the look of determination on your face?
00:25:58Oh, sham, Charlie Brown.
00:26:00A failure face if I ever saw one.
00:26:03In turn, see how benign and composed my face is,
00:26:08Charlie Brown?
00:26:10And your clumsiness, Charlie Brown.
00:26:14Shall we run through it once more at normal speed?
00:26:17No.
00:26:19No, I don't think so.
00:26:24I've never gone through anything like that in my life.
00:26:28I never knew I could be so stupid.
00:26:32I never knew I had so many faults.
00:26:35I never felt so completely miserable.
00:26:41Wait until you get my bill.
00:26:44These psychiatric treatments are going to bankrupt me.
00:26:47Will you get my bill?
00:27:06These psychiatric treatments are going to bankrupt me.
00:27:18Get up, Linus. It's time to go to school.
00:27:21Again? What do you mean, again?
00:27:24I went yesterday.
00:27:26Hmm. Mom's already made your lunch.
00:27:33Guess I might as well go to school. I can't waste a good lunch.
00:27:47Do you have to drag that stupid blanket to school every day?
00:27:52How would you feel if people came up to you and said,
00:27:56your little brother drags a blanket with him wherever he goes?
00:28:03This blanket is a necessity. It keeps me from cracking up.
00:28:08It could be regarded as a spiritual tourniquet.
00:28:12Without this blanket, I'd be nothing.
00:28:16A ship without a rudder. No good grief.
00:28:40Hey, Charlie Brown! Wait for me!
00:28:46You look like you've been taking shock treatments or something.
00:28:50What's more shocking than seeing your faults projected onto a screen?
00:28:59Life is difficult, isn't it, Charlie Brown?
00:29:02Yes, it is.
00:29:07But I've developed a new philosophy.
00:29:11I only dread one day at a time.
00:29:17I feel terrible.
00:29:21You can't continue carrying on like this, Charlie Brown.
00:29:28You're going to have to do something about it.
00:29:31You're going to have to win at something.
00:29:34Something that will restore your lost self-confidence.
00:29:38Hey, Charlie Brown! There's a spelling bee at school today.
00:29:42Why don't you volunteer?
00:29:46That's a good idea, Charlie Brown.
00:29:48If you win, it'll show everybody that you're not a born loser.
00:29:52Maybe you're right, Linus. Maybe I should volunteer.
00:29:56You'll go out for the spelling bee?
00:29:59Charlie Brown, you'll just make a fool of yourself.
00:30:03Besides that, you're bound to be a complete failure.
00:30:08You never do anything right
00:30:11You never put anything in its place
00:30:15No wonder everyone calls you
00:30:18Failure Face
00:30:22You're so impossibly dumb
00:30:25In history books you're named Elly Race
00:30:28Or else they're bound to call you
00:30:31Failure Face
00:30:34And in the race to be stupid
00:30:37You set a brand new kind of pace
00:30:40We'd like to christen you Charlie
00:30:44Failure Face
00:30:51By golly, I'll show them.
00:30:54I'll show them that I'm good at something.
00:30:57By golly, I'll show them.
00:31:00By golly, I'll show them.
00:31:04Maybe I will enter the spelling bee.
00:31:07That's the sort of thing I need to gain confidence and self-esteem.
00:31:11I think I'll raise my hand and volunteer.
00:31:14It'll be good for me.
00:31:16I think I'll just raise my hand and volunteer.
00:31:19My hand won't go up.
00:31:21My hand is smarter than I am.
00:31:24Yes, ma'am.
00:31:26What am I doing? Am I talking to myself?
00:31:29Yes, ma'am. I was talking to myself about the spelling bee.
00:31:35Yes, ma'am. I'd like to be in the spelling bee.
00:31:38Psst. You're crazy. Don't do it.
00:31:41You'll just make a fool out of yourself.
00:31:44I will not.
00:31:47Excuse me, ma'am. I was answering one of my many detractors.
00:31:52Well, here I am in the first round of the spelling bee.
00:31:55Nobody thinks I can win the class spelling bee,
00:31:58but I'm gonna show them.
00:32:00I not only know a lot of hard words,
00:32:02but I know every spelling rule in the book.
00:32:05The only one I have trouble remembering is
00:32:08I before E except after D.
00:32:11Or is it E before I except after G?
00:32:17I've got to stay focused.
00:32:20I've got to stay calm and not get rattled.
00:32:23This is my big chance to prove to everyone that I can do something.
00:32:27I don't care if I don't actually win.
00:32:30All I want to do is get past the first few rounds and make a decent showing.
00:32:34Let's see now. How does that spelling rule go?
00:32:38Hmm.
00:32:40I guess I really don't have to worry.
00:32:42All the words in the first round of a spelling bee are usually quite easy.
00:32:46By the way, I'd almost like to start off with a hard one.
00:32:49You know, kind of shake up the other kids.
00:32:52I feel strangely calm.
00:32:57Uh-oh. Here it comes.
00:32:59It's my turn next. Here's my first word of the spelling bee.
00:33:05Failure? Yes, ma'am. That's an easy one.
00:33:08Boy, that's one word he should know well.
00:33:11Failure. F-A-I-L-U-R-E. Failure.
00:33:16I did it! I did it!
00:33:19Uh-oh. That kid has an easy one.
00:33:22Neighbor. N-E-I-B-O-R. Neighbor.
00:33:26Uh-oh. He's out. He missed it. Now it's...
00:33:31Moon. This kid has a real easy one.
00:33:34He'll never miss it.
00:33:36Then I'll get a hard one and I'll be out.
00:33:38Rats.
00:33:40Charities. C-H-A-R-T-E-L-I-S. Charities.
00:33:49He missed it. Uh-oh. I guess now it's up to me.
00:33:53It's Sydney or the bush. Here it is.
00:33:56Yes, ma'am? The word is insecure?
00:33:59Yes, that's a word I'm well acquainted with.
00:34:02Can you imagine? Of course he knows that word.
00:34:06It's his trademark.
00:34:08Insecure. I-N-S-E-C-U-R-E. Insecure.
00:34:24Boy, you really did it, Charlie Brown. You were great.
00:34:28You're our class champion.
00:34:33You didn't think I could do it, did you? But I did it.
00:34:39And tomorrow you'll represent our class in the all-school spelling bee.
00:34:44I'm going home and really bear down.
00:34:46I'm going to study the whole dictionary.
00:34:53This is one rule I must remember.
00:34:55I before E except after C.
00:34:59Before when sounded like A as in neighbor and way.
00:35:05Words ending in I-E, drop the E and change the I to Y before adding I-N-G.
00:35:13I before E except after C.
00:35:18Let's see. I before E except after H.
00:35:23No, I after E after C.
00:35:26I before E after. No, E before I after C.
00:35:33When a word has a C before an ending like frolic or colic or comic and mimic and picnic.
00:35:41You always add a K before appending.
00:35:44Huh?
00:35:45You know, sticking out E or I or Y.
00:35:48Oh, sure.
00:35:49For example, colicky, frolic-er, picnic-er, mimic-er, and hickory dickory dockery.
00:35:57On the other hand, if softness is maintained, page 43, then E must be retained after C.
00:36:05You mean before the ending able, right?
00:36:08That keeps the spelling stable.
00:36:10So that's why.
00:36:11Of course. Let's try.
00:36:13Noticeable, serviceable, embraceable, replaceable, peaceable, enforceable, pronounceable, intraceable.
00:36:23Slay, stein, Fahrenheit.
00:36:27Accepting, fiery, hierarchy, hieroglyphic.
00:36:31E, I is also used in special words that merit careful study.
00:36:37E before I after C.
00:36:40Seizure, measure, seize, cheat, coach, near, either, neither, cozy, fancy.
00:36:48Siege, however, is spelled I-E.
00:36:52Otherwise, use I-E in thief.
00:36:55Believe, fiend, niece, field, brief, grief, cashier, achieve, yield.
00:37:02Only one word in the language ends in S-E-D-E.
00:37:06Supersede.
00:37:07Three others end in C-E-E-D.
00:37:10Exceed, proceed, succeed.
00:37:13All others end in C-E-D-E.
00:37:17Exceed, concede, intercede.
00:37:20Precede, recede, succeed.
00:37:22E before I after C.
00:37:25When a word ends in C, like frolic and picnic and mimic,
00:37:30insert a K before adding a suffix.
00:37:34Beginning with F, I, or Y, E, I is used immediately after the letter C.
00:37:42The single exception is financier.
00:37:45E, I is used in words in which it has the sound of A,
00:37:50or the sound of I as in height.
00:37:53Slay, stine, Fahrenheit.
00:37:55E, I is also used in special words.
00:37:59Leisure, seizure, see, she, protein.
00:38:03Weird, either, neither, codeine, caffeine.
00:38:08Use I-E in thief, belief.
00:38:11Fiend, field, brief, grief, yield, achieve, cashier.
00:38:15Accept, have, proceed, end in X-E-E-D.
00:38:18Proceed, succeed, X-E-E-D.
00:38:20Concede, intercede, proceed, proceed, succeed.
00:38:25I before E except after C.
00:38:28Less C before C.
00:38:30Dissolve, D-I-S-O-L-V-E.
00:38:37Dissolve.
00:38:38That stupid Charlie Brown, he's going to get it this time.
00:38:43He's up against some of the best spellers in the school.
00:38:47I'll brace him.
00:38:49I'll brace him.
00:38:51A-S-B-R-A-S-S-I-V.
00:38:58I'll brace him.
00:39:04Stomach?
00:39:05Oh, stomachache.
00:39:06That's an easy one.
00:39:08Stomachache.
00:39:09S-T-O-M-A-C-H-hyphen-A-C-H-E.
00:39:14Stomachache.
00:39:20Embarrassment.
00:39:22E-M-B-A-R-A-S-S-M-M-E-N-T.
00:39:29Embarrassment.
00:39:32He missed it.
00:39:33Boy.
00:39:35Here's my turn.
00:39:37The word is perceive.
00:39:40Yes, I know the word.
00:39:42I before E except after V.
00:39:44Oh, boy.
00:39:45That blockhead will never get this one.
00:40:02Perceive.
00:40:03P-E-R-C-E-I-V-E.
00:40:06Perceive.
00:40:09He did it!
00:40:11He did it!
00:40:13Hooray!
00:40:15He's a hero!
00:40:18Charlie Brown did it.
00:40:23Champion Charlie Brown
00:40:25That has a lovely ring
00:40:28Something to make a four-column headline
00:40:32Something the kids can sing
00:40:35Something the kids can sing
00:40:38Champion Charlie Brown
00:40:40It's fire
00:40:41Setting the whole wide world on fire
00:40:44While the flags break out the confetti
00:40:47Cause all the bells to sound
00:40:50He's gotta be most definitely
00:40:53Champion Charlie Brown
00:40:56Champion Charlie Brown
00:40:59He's got to be the best
00:41:02Top of the heap when it comes to spelling
00:41:05Better than all the rest
00:41:08Champion Charlie Brown
00:41:10You did it
00:41:11If you're a blockhead boy
00:41:13You did it
00:41:14It must be something not to be nothing
00:41:17When you've been on the ground
00:41:20Once a beginner
00:41:22Now he's a winner
00:41:23Champion Charlie Brown
00:41:26Champion Charlie Brown
00:41:29Champion Charlie Brown
00:41:32I hate to admit it, but this could mean the start of something great for Charlie Brown.
00:41:38He may have to get an agent.
00:41:40Of course he'll need an agent.
00:41:42Our glorious victory must be capitalized upon.
00:41:46Let's see.
00:41:47As agent, I shall get 10%.
00:41:51Or is it 15% of Charlie Brown?
00:41:54Perhaps this calls for incorporation.
00:41:57Lucy Van Pelt, Inc.
00:42:01I guess you really have to start boning up on your spelling, Charlie Brown.
00:42:05Boning up?
00:42:06What for?
00:42:07I just won.
00:42:09Boy, I wouldn't go through that again for anything.
00:42:14What?
00:42:15What?
00:42:16What?
00:42:17I guess I showed him.
00:42:19I guess old Charlie Brown came through.
00:42:22What a relief that's over.
00:42:24What?
00:42:25What do you mean over?
00:42:28It's over.
00:42:29I won.
00:42:30And I won't ever have to go through such an ordeal again.
00:42:35Why, you blockhead.
00:42:37This is just the beginning.
00:42:40Of course, Charlie Brown.
00:42:42This is only the beginning.
00:42:44Sure, Charlie Brown.
00:42:45This is only the beginning.
00:42:52Charlie Brown, this victory makes you a representative to the National Elimination Spelling Bee,
00:43:03second grade.
00:43:05National Elimination Spelling Bee?
00:43:09Ugh!
00:43:10Well, I can see that this blockhead needs help.
00:43:13It isn't just the nationals.
00:43:16There's personal appearances after that.
00:43:19Testimonials.
00:43:20Testimonials?
00:43:21Perhaps TV appearances.
00:43:23A manager of my caliber is the answer, Charlie Brown.
00:43:29In fact, I'm not sure if 15% is enough.
00:43:34My valuable presence is easily worth 20%.
00:43:40Good grief.
00:43:42The first thing we must correct is your posture.
00:43:46The judges of a contest can be influenced by poor posture.
00:43:55Your grooming is very important.
00:43:58Let's spruce up these clothes, Charlie Brown.
00:44:02You need a haircut, too.
00:44:04I can see that we're going to have to work with you.
00:44:07Patty, what do you think?
00:44:09Well, we should check his walk.
00:44:11If he's going to stumble around like he usually does...
00:44:15What do you think, Charlie Brown?
00:44:17Not too bad.
00:44:19A little coaching will help, though.
00:44:21Too bad he doesn't have naturally curly hair.
00:44:24Judges can't resist naturally curly hair.
00:44:28You've got to learn how to smile, Charlie Brown.
00:44:31Smile!
00:44:32Hmm.
00:44:34Hmm.
00:44:36You've got to smile like a sick pumpkin.
00:44:42And furthermore, you have to be understood.
00:44:45The judges must be able to understand you!
00:44:49Your diction must be perfect!
00:44:54The honor of your school, your neighborhood, rests on your shoulders!
00:45:00Not to mention the economic future of your manager!
00:45:12Linus, I don't know how I get into these messes.
00:45:16If I hadn't volunteered in the first place, I wouldn't have won.
00:45:20And now I wouldn't have to be trying to memorize the dictionary.
00:45:24There's a good chance that instead of being a hero,
00:45:27I'll make a bigger fool of myself than ever.
00:45:30Don't be discouraged, Charlie Brown.
00:45:32You have nothing to lose.
00:45:34You'll either be a hero or a goat.
00:45:38Hi, Big Brother. Hi, Linus.
00:45:42Hi. Hi, Sally.
00:45:45Why don't you take me to a movie?
00:45:48How would I ever take you to a movie?
00:45:51Well, this happens all the time.
00:45:53Boys call up girls and say, Would you like to go to a movie?
00:45:58And then the girls say, Why, yes, I'd like it very much.
00:46:04And then the boy goes over to the girls' house and knocks on the door.
00:46:09And he says to her, I've come to take you to a movie.
00:46:14Have you come to take me to a movie, Linus?
00:46:18Good grief, no.
00:46:23Isn't he the cutest thing?
00:46:26I know, isn't he?
00:46:29Let's sing!
00:46:32Let's sing!
00:46:35Let's sing!
00:46:38C-H-A-R-L-I-E!
00:46:41Charlie!
00:46:43Charlie Brown!
00:46:45Yay!
00:46:46This whole thing makes me feel like I'm being drafted.
00:46:50Think of it this way, Charlie Brown.
00:46:52You're going on a great adventure.
00:46:54You're saving all us little kids.
00:46:56Our honor is riding on your shoulders.
00:46:58Not to mention my future economic security, Charlie Brown.
00:47:03As your agent, I expect nothing but success in our endeavors.
00:47:08Go out there, Charlie Brown, and fight!
00:47:12Good grief.
00:47:14Okay, Charlie Brown, I guess you better get aboard.
00:47:17The bus is about to go.
00:47:19It's a dead one, Charlie Brown.
00:47:21I want you to take this, my blanket, my life, my all.
00:47:27It will bring you luck.
00:47:29Gee, Linus, that's very nice of you.
00:47:32Here!
00:47:33I don't think I...
00:47:34Here!
00:47:36Well, okay.
00:47:39Thanks, Linus.
00:47:40Here!
00:47:41So long, Linus.
00:47:42Here!
00:47:43Return victorious, Charlie Brown!
00:47:47I don't come back at all!
00:47:49You can do it, Charlie Brown!
00:47:52You can do it, Charlie Brown!
00:47:55Return victorious, Charlie Brown!
00:48:19Return victorious, Charlie Brown!
00:48:50Schroeder, do you think Charlie Brown will win?
00:48:53Do you think that Charlie Brown has a chance?
00:48:56Well, he's been practicing a lot.
00:48:59I think he has a good chance.
00:49:03A young man these days has to practice a lot, doesn't he?
00:49:08A young man these days has to work very hard
00:49:11to be able to sport a wife, doesn't he?
00:49:15Who said anything about a wife?
00:49:20Do piano players make a lot of money, Schroeder?
00:49:24Some do.
00:49:26If they practice very hard, I guess.
00:49:31Keep practicing, kiddo.
00:49:36Incidentally, who's this, George Washington?
00:49:40Incidentally, who's this, George Washington?
