00:00William Bandit in The Life of Riley, with Marjorie Reynolds as Pegg, Tom DeAndre as Gillis, Wes Morgan as Junior, and Gloria Blondell as Honeybee.
00:15Produced by Tom McKnight.
00:20The financial structure of a nation is involved and complicated.
00:25Vast buildings are erected, where a man can hide away his surplus cash.
00:30Other buildings in convenient neighborhood locations make it easy for him to get it out again.
00:37Stock and commodity exchanges serve to keep the financial lifeblood of the nation circulating at a healthy pitch.
00:44However, the average individual has his first brush with economics in the home, as in the case of Junior Riley.
00:54And another thing, Junior, when you owe people money, it's your duty to pay them as soon as possible.
00:59He borrowed a dime from me a month ago and hasn't paid me back yet.
01:03Junior, you know better than that. Come on, pay up.
01:06Oh, boy.
01:07Now, that's no attitude to take, Junior.
01:10When a debt is just and honorable, you pay up immediately.
01:14Now, I don't like to set myself up as an example, but when it comes to debts...
01:18What happened?
01:22Well, Riley, the light company warned you ten days ago that if you didn't pay the bill, they were turning off the lights.
01:28Well, don't just sit there, Junior. Do something. Go get some candles.
01:35That company uses cheap electricity.
01:37How much dough were you able to raise, Egbert?
01:44There it is. Four and a quarter.
01:46Hey, you did pretty good.
01:47That's five weeks allowance and the refund on 62 pop bottles. How'd you do?
01:52I only got three and a quarter.
01:53Is that all?
01:55Well, I was going to hit pop for more dough last night, but then he went into a big lecture.
01:59And he wouldn't kick through?
02:00Well, I finally got another quarter out of him.
02:02How?
02:03I ran into my flashlight.
02:06I don't think we have enough, but let's try it anyway.
02:09Come on.
02:15There she is.
02:16What a puke.
02:18Boy, look at the way she's built.
02:20What a neat job.
02:22Hi, man.
02:23Hi, Ken.
02:24You two tycoons raised the loot yet?
02:26We've got seven and a half between us.
02:28Sorry, ten bucks for the down payment.
02:29Aw, Kenny.
02:30I wouldn't even be selling her if I wasn't getting married.
02:33We could pay you the rest by next month.
02:35No.
02:35I can make a cash deal just like that.
02:38Kenny?
02:39Hi, Kenny.
02:40Hi, Jeannie.
02:42You're back already?
02:43I got my final fitting on my gown.
02:45Ooh, and it's perfectly dreamy.
02:47Did you pick up your tuck set and go to the jewelers?
02:49Not yet.
02:51Aw, you should take care of those things today.
02:53I know. I've had a million things to do all day long.
02:56Hey, fellas.
02:57I've got to get over to the hairdressers.
02:59See ya.
03:00Okay, I'll make a deal with you.
03:04I'll let you have a boat for seven and a half down payment if you run a couple errands for me.
03:08Gee, Kenny, you're a real pal.
03:10Now, look.
03:10I want you to go and pick up a tux I got ordered at the Wedding Bell Rental Shop.
03:14And then you go over to Holmberg's Jewelry Store and pick up a ring.
03:17You got it?
03:18Okay.
03:18I'll get the ring and you get the tux.
03:20Okay, let's go.
03:21Let's go.
03:21How'd you make out with the jewelers?
03:30Oh, the guy wasn't through engraving it yet.
03:32Well, come with me while I deliver the tux to Kenny.
03:35And we'll check with the jewelers later.
03:36Okay.
03:42I'm telling you, Ryle, I've seen it with my own two eyes.
03:46Forget it, Gillis.
03:47Forget it.
03:48When I see my son going into the Wedding Bell Rental Shop to get a tuxedo,
03:52I'm telling you, Ryle, Egbert's getting married.
03:55Here, look, look.
03:56Read the paper and take your mind off it, will you?
03:58Go ahead.
03:58Okay, maybe you'll help me.
04:00All right.
04:02I'll read a little.
04:03Hey, Ryle, look.
04:04Ryle.
04:05Look.
04:05Boy 13 marries girl 11.
04:08Read it.
04:09Yeah, sure.
04:10But maybe they're old for their age.
04:14Anyway, this happened in one of the mountain states.
04:16Yeah, look at that.
04:17Listen, Egbert's been acting very mysterious lately.
04:20So is Junior.
04:21But do you see me getting excited?
04:23No.
04:24Huh?
04:25No.
04:31Now, will you just relax and forget about it?
04:33Calm down.
04:34Be like me, huh?
04:35Will you?
04:36Okay.
04:37Hello?
04:38Who?
04:40Junior Ryle?
04:41No.
04:41No, he's not here.
04:43Any message?
04:45Tell him the wedding ring is ready.
04:47Yeah.
04:48Okay, I'll tell him.
04:49Yeah.
04:50Right.
04:51Uh, remind me to tell Junior his wedding ring is ready.
04:54Yeah, the wedding ring is ready.
04:56Now, look, Gillis, you've got to...
05:01Gillis!
05:04It's Junior!
05:05He's getting married!
05:06Take this one by Junior!
05:08I can't believe it!
05:09I can't believe it!
05:10Calm down!
05:10Calm down!
05:10How can I calm down when my own son is plunging into matrimonial wetland?
05:14I need you to jump into conclusions!
05:16Jump into conclusions?
05:18These kids are getting married all the time!
05:20The papers are full of it!
05:21But what is it happening to me?
05:23Why?
05:23Why?
05:24Why?
05:25The reason I came over here was to tell you that my Egbert was getting married!
05:29No, Junior!
05:29No, Junior!
05:30No, Junior!
05:31Junior!
05:32Junior!
05:33That's it!
05:35The two of them are getting married together!
05:37Junior!
05:38Do you realize what's happening?
05:41Yeah.
05:41Our little babies are leaving us!
05:43Yeah.
05:44Gillis, where have we failed?
05:47I don't know.
05:48I've always been nice to Egbert.
05:50Same with me and Junior.
05:52Just think, Ryle.
05:54Our little Egbert and Junior are getting married.
05:57It seems like just yesterday they were kids.
06:01Only this high.
06:03That's all the higher they are today.
06:05Oh, no!
06:06I never thought I raised my boy to be a child bride.
06:14Ryle, come here.
06:19Look.
06:26They're probably discussing their wedding plans right now.
06:28What about the boat?
06:29You think we ought to tell our folks about it?
06:31Let's wait till we get it first.
06:33Yeah.
06:34We tell them now, we may never get it.
06:36Now, don't say a word, Ryle.
06:40Let them do all the talking.
06:41Yeah, okay.
06:42Shh.
06:42Yeah, I won't say a word, though.
06:50Hi, Dad.
06:51Hi.
06:51Hi, Pop.
06:53Hi, son.
06:54Uh, what's new, Junior?
07:08Nothing.
07:12What's...
07:13Nothing!
07:14Why don't I ask you, will you?
07:16Now, what's new, Egbert?
07:19Nothing.
07:19Nothing.
07:20You guys are pretty quiet.
07:28We are?
07:33Yeah.
07:33You...
07:34You might as well talk now,
07:37because in a few days,
07:38you won't get a chance.
07:40Will I?
07:41No.
07:41Okay, if you're not going to open up,
07:51then we will.
07:52We might as well tell you the truth.
07:54We know all about it.
07:56You do, Pop?
07:57The jeweler phone that your ring was ready.
08:00Did you hear that, Junior?
08:01That's terrific.
08:02Come on, let's go.
08:02Junior, Egbert!
08:05Come, wait!
08:07Junior, come back!
08:09Junior, give me another chance!
08:15They never even look back.
08:20It's tough to lose a son, Lyle.
08:23Especially when he's deductible.
08:26I never thought of that.
08:27Oh!
08:32Personally, I think you two jokers
08:38have a couple of screws loose.
08:40If there are any more left to loosen.
08:43Look at the evidence, honeybee.
08:44What about the ring and the tuxedo?
08:46And look at the time.
08:47Eight o'clock.
08:48And Egbert and Junior
08:49didn't even come home for supper.
08:51Oh, I can't believe it.
08:53It has me wondering.
08:54For all we know,
08:55they could be in Niagara Falls right now.
08:57Oh, for heaven's sakes.
08:59At their ages,
08:59they couldn't get married
09:00if they wanted to.
09:02For one thing,
09:02they'd have to have a license
09:03and nobody would sell them one.
09:05Oh, that don't make any difference.
09:07You're supposed to have a license
09:08to shoot ducks,
09:09but that don't stop some people.
09:11Look at the times.
09:12I already did.
09:14Eight o'clock.
09:17How long did Katie say
09:18we'd keep the boat in his garage?
09:20Just till tomorrow.
09:21Gee, that means
09:22we're gonna have to tell
09:22our folks about tonight
09:23so we can get their permission
09:24to take it to the harbor tomorrow.
09:26Shall I paint over this
09:27jumping Judy with his red paint?
09:28Oh, leave it on.
09:29Judy's a good name for a sailboat.
09:31Okay.
09:32How are you gonna tell your folks?
09:34I'm just gonna tell them the truth.
09:36I'm gonna say,
09:37Pop,
09:38Egbert and I bought a boat.
09:39Then he hit the ceiling.
09:41The ceiling?
09:42He won't stop
09:42till he hits the roof.
09:43Then when he gets back
09:44down to earth again,
09:45he'll say,
09:46Junior,
09:47you mean my own flesh and bone
09:48went out and bought a boat
09:49without consoling his father first?
09:51Then what are you gonna say?
09:52I've got one thing
09:53that always stops him.
09:54I'll say,
09:55Pop,
09:56don't forget,
09:57you were a kid once.
09:58Yeah,
09:58that always gets it.
10:00Then he'll say,
10:01Junior,
10:02you're a regular
10:03chip off the old blockhead.
10:04Come on in the house
10:05and we'll tell your mother.
10:06Well,
10:07you haven't got anything
10:07to worry about.
10:09Sure,
10:09Pop's a swell guy.
10:12Yeah,
10:12my dad says
10:13you sort of take after him.
10:14You've got the same
10:15quick temper
10:16and you,
10:17what do you mean
10:18the same quick temper?
10:19Another crack like that
10:20and you'll be wearing
10:20this pink hand for a hat
10:21and I'll stuff this.
10:25Yeah,
10:25I see what you mean.
10:30Well,
10:31I still can't think
10:32of a better guy
10:33to take after
10:33than my Pop.
10:39Well,
10:39I can't see no good
10:40coming from just
10:41sitting here
10:41talking about it.
10:42Who's talking?
10:43I am.
10:44Look,
10:44Ryle,
10:45you've got to handle
10:46kids with kid gloves.
10:47Sometimes I think
10:48it would be better
10:49if you handled them
10:49with grown-up gloves.
10:51Well,
10:51I don't know.
10:52Hey,
10:53was that the front door?
10:55Maybe it's Junior
10:55with the little woman.
11:03Is Junior all right?
11:04Oh,
11:05thank goodness.
11:06Wait a minute.
11:07what's that red stuff
11:09he's got on him?
11:12It's Rouge.
11:15Junior's tied up
11:15in a flapper.
11:16England's probably home.
11:17Let's go over and see.
11:19We'll see you folks later
11:20and compare notes.
11:22All right,
11:22honeybee,
11:23I'll be over
11:23in a little bit.
11:27Well,
11:27Peg,
11:28this is it.
11:29Oh,
11:29Riley,
11:30maybe it'd be better
11:30if I talked to Junior.
11:32No,
11:32no,
11:32I'll handle this.
11:33Now,
11:33don't do anything
11:34you'll be sorry for.
11:35Don't you worry,
11:35I want to use psychology.
11:37I'll start out
11:38by referring to an item
11:39in tonight's paper.
11:40Oh,
11:40you mean the one
11:41about the two children
11:42getting married?
11:42No,
11:42no,
11:43another one
11:43that'll get me
11:44into talking about
11:44kids getting married
11:45without Junior
11:45even realizing.
11:47Now,
11:47you just leave it to me.
11:51Oh,
11:52hi,
11:53Junior.
11:54Hi,
11:54Pop.
11:54There's something
11:55I want to tell you about.
11:56Sit down, son.
11:57Um,
11:58yes,
11:58sir.
11:59Um,
11:59Pop,
12:00I want to...
12:00Hold it.
12:02But,
12:03Pop,
12:03there's something
12:04I've got to...
12:04Please.
12:09Junior,
12:10there's an article
12:12in today's paper
12:12that has to do
12:13with the younger generation
12:14and their parents.
12:16And when I point out
12:17certain things,
12:18you will see
12:19that I don't blame
12:20the kids
12:20for what's happening
12:21these days.
12:22That's swell, Pop,
12:24because I just...
12:25And that's a pretty
12:26noble viewpoint
12:27coming from a parent
12:28of which I am one.
12:29Do you not agree?
12:31Sure I agree,
12:32because I just...
12:33Here is the item.
12:37Two boys
12:39in homemade boat
12:40rescued at sea
12:41by Coast Guard.
12:44What about it?
12:46Junior,
12:47I do not blame the boy.
12:49You don't, Pop?
12:50No.
12:51I blame the boy's father.
12:54If I had been
12:55that kid's father,
12:55I wouldn't let him
12:56have the boat
12:56in the first place.
12:59Excuse me, Pop.
13:02Junior!
13:03Junior, wait a minute!
13:05Junior, come back!
13:06Junior!
13:07Junior, you come out of there!
13:09Junior!
13:16I wonder how
13:17Julius is making out.
13:19Edward, come out of there!
13:21Come out!
13:23Come out!
13:24Edward!
13:26It only proves
13:27one thing, Peg.
13:28I was right
13:29and Junior's
13:29keeping it from us.
13:31Well, can't you
13:32even talk to him?
13:33No, he's locked
13:34himself in this room.
13:35When that kid
13:36makes up his mind
13:37to be stubborn,
13:37he's stubborn.
13:39Yes, I've noticed that.
13:40I don't know
13:41where he gets
13:41that stubbornness from.
13:42It must be
13:42from your side
13:43of the family, Peg.
13:45Must be.
13:46Well, I'm going over
13:47to see Honey Bee.
13:48Maybe they're having
13:49better luck with Egbert.
13:52I got a good mind
13:53to rip down that door
13:54and give that kid a...
13:55Hi, Ted!
13:57Oh, hello, Babsy.
13:58Are you still worried
14:00about Junior
14:01getting married?
14:02More than ever.
14:03Have you, uh...
14:06given a thought
14:07as to whom
14:07the girl might be?
14:08No.
14:10Say,
14:11that's a very good question.
14:13Yes,
14:14a bride is
14:14pretty important
14:15at a wedding.
14:16Well, of course.
14:17If you were getting married,
14:19you'd certainly want to know
14:19who the bride was.
14:21Oh, but Dad,
14:22if I were getting married...
14:24One problem at a time, Babsy.
14:26Have you any idea
14:27who she might be?
14:28No.
14:29The only girl
14:30I've seen Junior with lately
14:31is little Janet Foster
14:33down in the next block.
14:34Well, of course.
14:34That's it.
14:35She's the one.
14:36Oh, but it couldn't be Janet.
14:38She's such a sweet little kid.
14:39Nah, that's exactly
14:41the kind you've got
14:41to look out for.
14:42Now, look.
14:43You get on the phone,
14:44call her,
14:45and tell her to get over here.
14:45I want to talk to her
14:46right away.
14:47But it couldn't be Janet.
14:49Get on the phone
14:50and call her.
14:50Go on.
14:51Yes, Dad.
14:52Hi.
14:58Would you and Junior
14:58either have the money
14:59or a set of silverware?
15:00I beg your pardon?
15:02I...
15:02Oh, uh...
15:04Come in, Janet.
15:06Sit down, honey.
15:09Uh, Janet,
15:11there's a few things
15:12you've got to realize.
15:14Uh...
15:15Of course, you know
15:16that Junior only gets
15:1750 cents a week allowance.
15:19Why about it?
15:20Well, on that kind of door,
15:21you won't be living
15:22in no penthouse.
15:23What?
15:25Uh, look, Janet.
15:27Uh, let's you and me
15:28talk as father-in-law
15:30to daughter-in-law.
15:31I'm the father-in-law.
15:33I don't know
15:34what you're talking about,
15:35Mr. Riley.
15:36The last time I saw Junior
15:37was a week ago
15:38at the drugstore.
15:39We had a malt together.
15:41Must have been
15:42a pretty powerful malt.
15:44I'm all mixed up,
15:45Mr. Riley.
15:46Well, of course you are, Janet.
15:47That's why you're
15:48in this terrible mess.
15:49Facy?
15:54Uh-huh.
15:55Yeah, I see, Larry.
16:02Hi, Janet.
16:03Hi, Babs.
16:04Dad, Junior's in his room
16:05talking on the phone.
16:06What?
16:07Excuse us a minute.
16:14No, I won't be playing
16:15on the team anymore.
16:16From now on,
16:17all my time's gonna be
16:18taking up with Judy.
16:19Judy?
16:20It's not Janet.
16:21Oh, lucky we found her.
16:24Boy, you ought to see her.
16:26What a beaut.
16:27Oh, I haven't told
16:28my folks yet.
16:29Riley, are you there?
16:35You talk to Janet
16:36for a few minutes.
16:36I think we're getting
16:37to the bottom of this mess.
16:44Why don't you watch
16:45where I'm going?
16:46Never mind that now.
16:47Gillis, I'll make it
16:48some headway.
16:49Wait till I tell you
16:50what I just found out.
16:51I overheard Egbert
16:52talking on the phone
16:53to the girl he's gonna marry.
16:54Her name is Judy.
16:55Oh.
16:56Well, Junior's gonna marry
16:57a...
16:58a...
16:58a...
16:59Judy.
17:00Gillis.
17:00Junior and Egbert
17:01are marrying the same girl.
17:03The same girl?
17:04Well, I guess maybe
17:05they figure it takes
17:06two guys to support
17:07one woman.
17:08There must be a mistake.
17:09There certainly is a mistake.
17:11Other people get
17:12mixed up in bigamy.
17:13But it took Junior
17:14and Egbert
17:14to come up with trigamy.
17:15Gillis will be done
17:16or something.
17:17I'll see what I can do.
17:18Me too.
17:19Now, look, Janet.
17:26I'm desperate.
17:27And you're the only one
17:27that can help me out.
17:29Now, go in and tell Junior
17:30that you love him.
17:31Tell him I love him?
17:32Well, it's the only way
17:33we can break up this thing
17:34with Judy.
17:35But, Mr. Riley,
17:36I like Junior,
17:37but I...
17:37Look, I'll get him out here
17:38and you go for a walk.
17:39Get him all.
17:40Ask him to marry you.
17:41Anything.
17:42But, Mr. Riley, I...
17:44Uh, Junior,
17:48Janet is here to see you.
17:50Okay, Larry.
17:51I'll see you later.
17:53What is your walk?
17:54Come on.
17:57Hi, Janet.
17:58Hi, Junior.
17:59Oh, what a lovely couple.
18:00Look, Junior.
18:01Here's five bucks.
18:03You two go for a walk.
18:04Maybe in the park, huh?
18:06What for?
18:06Well, there's a lovely
18:08moon out tonight.
18:09What for?
18:10And don't worry
18:11about a thing.
18:12There's always room
18:13in the house
18:13for two more.
18:20Riley.
18:21We finally learned
18:22the truth.
18:23I caught it.
18:23Egbert made him confess.
18:25The two of them
18:26went in together
18:26and bought a boat.
18:27A boat?
18:28They can't even support
18:29the one wife
18:30they've got between them.
18:32Oh, no, no, Riley.
18:33The boat
18:33has been the big secret.
18:35The boys call the boat
18:36Jumpin' Judy.
18:37Or Judy for short.
18:39There's no girl?
18:41None at all.
18:42Oh, no.
18:43Gillis, those two kids
18:44are stupider than the
18:45both of us running off
18:46and getting married
18:47without a girl.
18:48No, Riley.
18:49They're not going
18:49anyplace.
18:50The whole thing
18:51is that the kids
18:51chipped in together
18:52and bought a boat.
18:54Oh.
18:56Oh, well, in that case...
18:58Wait a minute.
19:01I just sent Junior
19:02out to marry Janet Foster.
19:04What?
19:05I practically
19:05Foster on them.
19:06I even put up
19:07the money.
19:08But, Dad,
19:09I'm sure they've just
19:10gone to the drugstore
19:11for a malt.
19:12Well, then call
19:13the drugstore
19:14and head them off.
19:16Call the police
19:17and set up roadblocks.
19:19Will you relax
19:20and be calm?
19:21You said that
19:22once before.
19:23You're in a rut.
19:24Peg,
19:24I forbid any member
19:25of this family
19:26to ever be married again.
19:28Except you and me.
19:33And to think
19:34that I'm the one
19:35who sentenced
19:35my own son
19:36to a life
19:37of matrimony.
19:40I mean...
19:41What?
19:47Hello?
19:48What?
19:50Tigert's Junior.
19:51Oh, good.
19:51Junior, where are you?
19:52Where are you, son?
19:54Pop,
19:54you know where
19:55the Justice of the Peace
19:56is in Santa Monica?
19:58Justice of the Peace?
20:00Oh, no.
20:01Oh, no.
20:06Hello?
20:07Hello?
20:08Hello.
20:10Hello, Junior.
20:12This is Mom.
20:13Oh, hi.
20:14Mom,
20:15you know where
20:15the Justice of the Peace
20:16is in Santa Monica?
20:18Well, we're right next to it
20:19in a drugstore phone booth.
20:20Janet and I
20:21came down to the beach
20:22and rode on a roller coaster
20:23and everything else.
20:24And now I find out
20:25we haven't got enough
20:26car fare to get home.
20:27I was wondering
20:28if Pop could come down
20:29and pick us up.
20:30He certainly will.
20:33What?
20:34Oh, no.
20:35He won't be mad.
20:36It'll be one of the
20:37happiest rides
20:38he ever took in his life.
20:40My dear.
20:42Riley.
20:43Riley.
20:44Riley.
20:44Riley, it's all right.
20:46Junior's all right.
20:47It's not me.
20:47Wait, what's up?
20:49Owning a boat
20:50at Junior's age
20:50is absolutely ridiculous.
20:52Junior!
20:58Egbert!
20:59What's that?
21:01This is all
21:01that's left of our boat.
21:03Oh, Junior Riley,
21:04I told you not
21:05to take that boat out
21:06unless someone was with you.
21:07It was all right, Mom.
21:09Pop was with us.
21:10He was doing the steering
21:12when we hit the pier.
21:21Riley!
21:22I was steering boat, Peg,
21:25and all of a sudden
21:26a big pier came at me
21:28and I couldn't
21:29hit me.
21:31And I thought I was...
21:33I ought to stay away
21:34from boats, Peg.
21:36Oh, nice.
21:37You got a hot cup of coffee?
21:38Oh, you just get in there
21:39and just need your clothes.
21:40Come on.
21:52And this was in the reason
21:55I didn't know
21:56the Gold Coast.
21:56Oh, nice.
21:56And this was my президant
21:57to get they
21:58so close.
21:59And then,
22:00I felt like
22:00I was going to
22:02find my way
