00:00How did you wreck the bike, Junior?
00:09This kid was coming out of his driveway on a scooter, and I ran into him.
00:13Well, Junior, you gotta watch where you're going. How could you run into a thing like a scooter?
00:18Well, it was like the time that you ran into the side of a truck.
00:21Well, that was different. The truck sneaked up on me.
00:24How could it sneak up on you? It was loaded with chickens, and the chickens were cackling.
00:28I couldn't hear them. Your mother was telling me.
00:33Yes, it's William Bendix in The Life of Lion.
00:39With Marjorie Reynolds as Peg, George O'Hanlon as Dudley,
00:43Loujean Sanders as Babs, and Wesley Morgan as Junior.

00:58Good morning, Mr. White.
01:04Good morning, Junior.
01:06And how has everybody this beautiful, beautiful day?
01:10Good morning, Mr. Green.
01:11Hiya, Waldo.
01:12Mother Nature has left me ecstatic, speechless, and bubbling over.
01:18Well, why'd you take a couple of spoonfuls of bicarb?
01:20As I walked over here, a huge crocus lifted up her head and smiled at me.
01:27I gotta do my homework. I'll see you later.
01:30Okay.
01:32Then, as I continued on my merry way, a black-eyed Susan winked at me and puckered up her petals.
01:39Oh, this is sickening.
01:41Mr. Riley, don't you know what it means when a man speaks of a whole world full of flowers?
01:50Hay fever?
01:52It means he's in love.
01:55Wonderful, thrilling, rapturous love.
01:58L-O-V-E.
02:03I know how to spell it.
02:04Her name, Mr. Riley, is Millicent Fenton, and she's the most heavenly creature who ever walked.
02:10Yes?
02:11Where'd you meet her?
02:12Riding on the bus.
02:14Oh, you mean you flirted with her?
02:16Mr. Riley, the bus went around a sharp curve, see, and I landed in her lap.
02:22Oh, well, that is kind of romantic, is that?
02:25On the contrary.
02:26She was knitting at the time.
02:28I have to go now, Mr. Riley.
02:36I'm composing a tone poem about Millicent's eyelashes.
02:42Must have sprung a sparket.
02:45Mr. Riley, that was very unkind.
02:49I'm talking about the bike, Waldo.
02:51Oh.
02:51Oh.
02:54I'm in my eyes.
02:58Mr. Riley?
03:02Yes?
03:02I'm Mrs. Lindsay, Waldo, Vinnie's sister.
03:05Oh, Waldo, Vinnie's sister.
03:06And this is my son, Drake.
03:08Well, I'm very pleased to meet you.
03:10Won't you come in?
03:14Oh, this is my wife, Peg, and my daughter, Bette.
03:16Howdy, dear.
03:17Howdy, dear.
03:18I was wondering if you know where my brother is.
03:20I stopped by his house, but he isn't there.
03:23Well, he was here a few minutes ago.
03:24He said he was going right home.
03:26Oh, dear.
03:27I have to go to San Diego this weekend.
03:29I was planning to leave Drake with Waldo.
03:31Oh.
03:32Well, that's simple.
03:33Why don't you just leave the little fella here,
03:35and then when Waldo gets home, I'll see you.
03:36Riley.
03:37Maybe Waldo will be home in a few minutes.
03:40Well, I know, but there's no use holding up his sister.
03:42I'll tell you what you do.
03:43You go right ahead, and I'll see that the little fella gets delivered.
03:46Oh, thank you so much.
03:50Mustn't climb on the furniture in your heavy shoes, dear.
03:53You might fall down and hurt yourself.
03:55Okay, Mom.
03:58So nice meeting you folks.
04:00Mrs. Lindsay, on second thought, maybe you better take...
04:04Hello, Mom.
04:07Where do we eat?
04:09Eat?
04:10We just got through eating.
04:11I didn't.
04:12I'm hungry.
04:13Oh, well, maybe Auntie Peg can find you a cookie.
04:16Hasn't she got any cake?
04:18Come on, I'll see what I can find you.
04:20I don't like girls.
04:22Come on.
04:24But as soon as Waldo gets back, I'll take his nephew right over.
04:29He seems like a nice kid.
04:31I want a piece of cake!
04:33When you get to know him.
04:35I think I better go out to the garage and finish fixing Junior's bike.
04:41You'll get to know him.
04:43Waldo, what are you doing here?
05:00The most frightening thing happened.
05:02Your girl proposed to you.
05:04No, see, I was out in my backyard talking to one of my platoons.
05:07Yeah, I know.
05:08Then the little man in the white coat came along and...
05:10I heard somebody at the front of my house, see?
05:15And I peeked around, and it was my sister and her little boy.
05:19Oh.
05:20Oh, Waldo.
05:22That reminds me.
05:23Come on in the house.
05:24I better explain.
05:25See, my sister's little boy is a regular monster,
05:29and I just knew she wanted me to take care of him for the weekend.
05:33Yeah, well...
05:34I just couldn't, Mr. Hunter.
05:35Oh, I'd taken care of him before, and I was a total wreck before it was through.
05:40Look, there's something that I wanted...
05:41I'm hungry.
05:41I'm thirsty.
05:42Give me this.
05:42Give me that.
05:43The way he carried you on.
05:45Waldo.
05:45Oh, I'm so thankful I escaped and found asylum in your garage.
05:50Look, Waldo, pull up that sawhorse.
05:52I want to have a little talk with you, Petunia to Petunia.
05:55I mean, man to man.
05:57Good.
06:04Waldo.
06:06Yes?
06:07A little while ago, you told me that you had a girlfriend.
06:11A vision of loveliness.
06:13Well, it's possible that someday you and her might want to get married.
06:17Very possible.
06:18Uh-huh.
06:19And then you might want to raise a family.
06:22Imagine a little Waldo Jr.
06:27I can just see it now.
06:29He'll look just like me.
06:32Well, you've got to take what comes along.
06:35But, Waldo, what I was trying to say was that now would be a good time for you to start getting used to children.
06:41I'm very fond of children.
06:43Well, I'm very glad to hear that.
06:44Waldo, look.
06:45All except my sister's little boy.
06:48Waldo.
06:49Mr. Riley, are you trying to tell me something?
06:51Yes.
06:52Oh, hi.
07:02Hi, Uncle Waldo.
07:04Drake, it's you.
07:06Yeah.
07:07Your favorite nephew.
07:08Want a bite?
07:09I'm sorry, Waldo.
07:19I didn't know what I was getting you into.
07:21I would rather just not talk about it.
07:24Yeah, I know.
07:25Where is he now?
07:25Last time I saw him, he was in the kitchen.
07:29He was putting a stool on a table so he could reach up and get the jam jar out of the light fixture.
07:35Oh, that kid's a terror, Waldo.
07:37We...
07:37What's the jam jar doing in the light fixture?
07:42I hit it there once.
07:43But I'm through with all that now.
07:47And I'd rather just not talk about it.
07:48Yeah, Waldo, well, I'm sorry, Waldo.
07:51I can put up with taking care of Drake, but tonight was to have been my first date with Millicent.
07:58Oh.
07:58Well, where were you going?
08:01To the movies.
08:03Well, why don't you just take the kid along?
08:07The three of us go to the movies?
08:09Impossible.
08:10Well, if you can't afford it, make the kid pay his own way.
08:14When we get there, we'll probably hold hands.
08:18Well, you better, or else that kid will wreck everything in the joint.
08:22I mean, Millicent and I will probably hold hands.
08:24I don't know how to think how I'd look forward so to this evening.
08:29Yeah.
08:31Waldo, I'm not going to stand by the door while love flies out the window.
08:36You go on your date.
08:38I'll take care of Drake.
08:41Oh, Mr. I can never thank you enough.
08:43Oh, don't mention it, Waldo.
08:45Oh.
08:46All I ask is that you think of me while your Venus de Milo is crushing you in her arms.
08:51Oh, Mr. Ily, Venus de Milo didn't...
08:56Huh?
09:00Is he all right, Mr. Ily?
09:07Well, I can't tell. He's all covered with jam.
09:11I didn't, Mr. Jan.
09:13Yes, Jan.
09:14No, I'm going over to Mildred Nichols' house tonight to play bridge with the girls.
09:20But think of poor Waldo.
09:22You think of him.
09:23Why don't you take care of his nephew?
09:25Because I've got to go bowling.
09:27It's a league game.
09:28You know how Hawkins is if we don't show up.
09:31Now, look, Peg.
09:32But, oh.
09:34Oh.
09:34Hiya, Bebsie.
09:38Hi.
09:39What are you doing today?
09:40Riley.
09:41I'm going out with Don.
09:42There's a good movie at the drive-in.
09:44Oh, that's nice.
09:45Bebsie, how would you like me to pay your way into the show, huh?
09:49Riley.
09:51Well, I can shove the kid in the trunk.
09:56Under the hood?
09:57Don's car's got them holes in the hood the kid could peek through and he wouldn't miss
10:04it.
10:05Be a little, could he, huh?
10:14Waldo.
10:17Oh, hi, Mr. Riley.
10:19You know, Mr. Riley, I can never thank you enough.
10:22Yeah, but, but, Waldo.
10:23I just talked to Millicent.
10:24I told her I'd be right over.
10:26Yeah, Waldo.
10:26I am embarking on the most beautiful moment of my entire life.
10:32Yeah, I know.
10:32How do I look?
10:33Well, you look fine, but, Waldo.
10:35Yes, Mr. Riley?
10:36Why don't you just forget about the whole thing?
10:39Millicent probably ain't your type anyway.
10:42We're perfect for each other.
10:44Now, why do you say that?
10:47Because I can't get nobody to take care of Drake.
10:53I see.
10:56That's just the same.
10:59Well, I tried, Waldo.
11:04Farewell, Millicent.
11:06Farewell, life.
11:08Got it, boy, Waldo.
11:09I'm, I'm glad to see you're taking it so well.
11:11I'm going for a walk.
11:17Lover's leap.
11:18Oh, good.
11:19The fresh air on the way down will do you.
11:21No.
11:22No, no, Waldo.
11:23No, no.
11:23You, you, you can't do that, Waldo.
11:25There's just no other answer.
11:27Well, of course there's an answer.
11:29We, we've got to...
11:31I'll take care of the kid.
11:36I was supposed to bowl in an important league game tonight, but I'll make the sacrifice.
11:42Probably cost me my job, but that doesn't matter.
11:47Bless you, Mr. Riley.
11:49Bless you.
11:50Oh.
12:00Pop.
12:01Yeah, Junior.
12:01Mr. Hawkins just called.
12:02He wants you to get down to the bowling alley right away.
12:05He does?
12:05He says if you're not down there in 20 minutes, you're going to get fired.
12:08Oh.
12:09Tell him I'll be right there, Junior.
12:11Okay.
12:13You said it didn't matter if you lost your job.
12:16Well, I, I, I know, but it didn't sound so bad coming from me.
12:25Bless, Millicent, I, I just know it isn't.
12:27I can't tell her that I can't see her tonight.
12:30Would you, would you, would you?
12:32Yes, I'll, I'll handle it for you, Waldo.
12:37What are you going to say?
12:38Well, I'll, I'll, I'll just tell her the truth.
12:40It's, it's the only way.
12:43Hello, Millicent?
12:44Uh, uh, this is Chester A. Reilly.
12:48I'm a friend of Waldo's.
12:50How do you do?
12:51Look, Millicent.
12:54Waldo isn't going to be able to go out with you tonight.
12:57No.
12:58Well, he, he, he, he can't get a babysitter, you see.
13:04Hello?
13:05Hello, Millicent.
13:08She heard it.
13:10Babysitter.
13:11But she thinks that I...
13:13I have a feeling he said the wrong thing.
13:17Oh, I said it wasn't you.
13:25I got a feeling you got the right feeling.
13:34When do we eat?
13:35I'm hungry.
13:46I feel terribly sorry for poor Waldo.
13:48Well, it wasn't my fault, thank you.
13:50But it was, Riley.
13:51When you told the girl that he couldn't take her out because he couldn't get a babysitter,
13:55she could only assume one thing.
13:56Hey, what's the matter with that Waldo fellow off the street?
14:07Yeah, we just saw him in his yard.
14:09Yeah, he looked like a sick sheepdog.
14:10Oh, well, don't let that worry you.
14:12Waldo looks like a sick sheepdog when everything is going fine.
14:16Waldo is lovesick.
14:17Oh, I know the feeling.
14:19You just mope around the house, you can't eat.
14:21Hey, wait a minute.
14:22I can't ever remember a time that you couldn't eat.
14:25Listen, Smarty.
14:27It might mean that I never happened to meet Mr. Wright.
14:30Mr. Wright?
14:31Which one were you interested in?
14:32Orville or Wilbur?
14:37Is Waldo's girlfriend playing hard to get?
14:40Well, it's not that so much.
14:42It's just that he's got a nephew that's playing hard to get rid of.
14:45It seems the boy's a real behavior problem.
14:48Oh, that's simple.
14:49All Waldo has to do is apply a little psychology.
14:52If he's going to apply anything, it ought to be a hairbrush.
14:54Now, let's go up and straighten this thing out.
14:56Calvin, what do you know about handling kids?
14:58Oh, don't worry about me.
15:00I'll match my wits against a kid any time.
15:02Yeah, and Cal can do it, too.
15:04Thanks, Ryle.
15:05If you're going to handle a seven-year-old,
15:07you've got to think like a seven-year-old.
15:12Hey.
15:13You know, that's fine.
15:19Sounds like somebody mauling him.
15:26I knew Waldo was desperate, but I didn't think he'd go this far.
15:35Waldo!
15:36Waldo!
15:37What happened?
15:40He did it.
15:42He's a bad guy, and I'm King of the Wild Frontier.
15:52Oh, he said we were playing Davy Crockett.
15:55Yeah, but I was a plane.
15:59Waldo, how could you let a dumb kid like that tie you up, huh?
16:04Oh, it was easy.
16:05First, I took his hand like this.
16:08Then I put this around his wrist.
16:10This.
16:12And then?
16:13This.
16:16I did like this.
16:19And the last was easy.
16:22Since when did Davy Crockett use handcuffs?
16:24Since he started watching Grimey.
16:26Oh, yeah.
16:28Well, I...
16:29Hey, wait a minute.
16:30Hey, get...
16:30Get me out of here!
16:31Hey, what are you...
16:32What are you coming out of here?
16:33I know, Grimey.
16:34Grimey.
16:35Huh?
16:35Let me handle this, will you?
16:36Let me handle it.
16:38Come here.
16:41These bad guys have been giving you a lot of trouble, eh, Crock?
16:43What did you call me?
16:45Crock.
16:46Hey, you sound like a good guy.
16:48That's right, pal.
16:48I'm one of the good guys born on a mountaintop in Tennessee.
16:52And I've been thinking we sort of taught this bad guy a lesson, so...
16:56Why don't we let him go, huh?
16:57Okay, if you say so, pal.
16:59That's the way a dumb kid gets you tied up, Ryle.
17:14Thanks, Crock.
17:15Don't call me Crock.
17:16All right, good guys call me Crock.
17:20Relax, Ryle.
17:21I'll have him eaten out of my hand.
17:22Make sure he don't bite you.
17:26Say, Crock, what do you say you and me go over here and sit down and figure out how we can head off the Redskins at the pass, huh?
17:33Okay, if you say so, pal.
17:37Well, what do you say, Wanda?
17:40Just.
17:42Well, what are you...
17:44Crocking about?
17:45Oh, don't worry about me.
17:47I'll have you loose in a second, Wanda.
17:50That's nothing to get upset about here.
17:52There we are.
17:53What do you say you and me go out and have a little bull session with the crocuses, huh?
17:58The flowers aren't speaking to me anymore.
18:00And neither is Millicent.
18:02Every time I call her on the phone, she hangs up.
18:06Well, that's nothing unusual.
18:08Same thing used to happen to me when I was single.
18:11I'd say, this is Chester A. Riley speaking, and boom, they'd hang up.
18:15Must have been something about the sound of my name.
18:18There must be something we can do to square things with Millicent.
18:22Oh, you bet there is, Waldo.
18:24You and I are going right over to Millicent's house now, and we'll straighten everything out, huh?
18:28Well, that's a good idea.
18:29So we'll find up some trees and wait a minute.
18:32What about Drake?
18:33So the bad guys are coming around to Bency, and us good guys fall from a tree and knock them to the ground.
18:40What do you say?
18:40I can watch him for a few minutes.
18:42We'll sneak out.
18:43He won't even know we're going.
18:44Now, Mr. Dudley certainly has a way with children.
18:54Oh, he's got it up here.
18:55He's just like Gillis.
18:56He knows all the...
18:57Why, Waldo, wait for me!
19:04I don't want to go with you.
19:06What happened to Mr. Dudley?
19:07Oh, he turned out to be a bad guy.
19:18Mr. Riley, this is Millicent's house.
19:21Oh, that's nice.
19:22Soft, but like through yon window breaks.
19:27Yeah.
19:28Now, look, Drake, you wait out here while me and your Uncle Waldo go in.
19:31And no breakin' windows.
19:33I'm nervous.
19:34Well, what's there to be nervous about?
19:36The poor girl is probably pining her heart out for you.
19:39She's lonely.
19:41She's got nobody in the world to turn to except you.
19:44Now, come on.
19:47What'll I tell her, Mr. Riley?
19:49What is this?
19:50Nothing to it, Waldo.
19:51You just explained to her that your nephew ain't your real son, but he...
19:56Oh.
19:57Hi.
19:59Yeah, you just tell her that...
20:01Didn't you see what I just saw?
20:03Yeah, sure.
20:04A little kid came out of there.
20:06A little kid.
20:14Didn't you know about this, Waldo?
20:16Of course I didn't.
20:19Well, if she's a widow and she's only got two kids, why...
20:22It wouldn't...
20:23Yeah, but...
20:23Oh, no.
20:31And she was sore because she thought you had one kid.
20:34Yeah.
20:34I think we'd better be leaving.
20:36Yeah, I think we'd better be...
20:38Where's Drake?
20:40Oh, I don't know.
20:40He was around.
20:41Maybe he disappeared.
20:42He...
20:43He...
20:43Holy cow, they're coming off the assembly line.
20:48You're not threatening me.
20:50I'm leaving anyway.
20:51Head for the hills, Waldo!
20:56Do you want me?
21:06Oh, I think we're safe now.
21:09We're not going to be safe until we're in your house, Waldo.
21:12Keep running.
21:13Oh, run.
21:14Waldo!
21:15Riley!
21:16You got it!
21:17Hey, I've been looking for you guys.
21:20Nice, Cal.
21:22Waldo!
21:23Riley, wait a minute.
21:24Look.
21:25The fuck has to be handcuffed.
21:26Like...
21:26Wait.
21:27What a horrible way to go through life.
21:30Well, anyway, Waldo, everything worked out for the best.
21:42For the best?
21:44Well, sure.
21:45Under the circumstances, her...
21:47Her having all those kids and all,
21:49that...
21:49Aren't you happy about the whole thing?
21:52No, I am not.
21:53I'm miserable.
21:55Absolutely miserable.
21:57Yeah, I...
21:58I know how you feel, Waldo.
22:01Peg's got some girlfriends.
22:03I'll see what I can do.
22:05No, thank you.
22:06I'll just continue on my bachelor way.
22:10I'll take the lonely road,
22:12wearing my heart on my sleeve.
22:15Waldo, don't talk like that.
22:16It's unsanitary.
22:22Uncle Waldo!
22:24So, you finally decided to come home.
22:27Uncle Waldo!
22:28Don't bother him now.
22:29Look, between the two of us,
22:30we've loused him up bad enough as it is.
22:33Uncle Waldo, I brought someone here to see you.
22:36Don't go away.
22:38Who is it?
22:38Daniel Boone?
22:44Hello, Waldo.
22:46Millicent.
22:50Drake told me that he was your nephew.
22:53He told you?
22:54Yes.
22:55He was playing down in my yard with Tommy.
22:58The little neighbor boy.
23:00Neighbor boy?
23:01Yes.
23:02He's one of the children I was taking care of.
23:05You were taking care of...
23:08Oh, Millicent.
23:12Waldo, aren't you going to introduce me?
23:15Oh, yes, of course, Millicent.
23:18I want you to meet my very dearest friend,
23:21Mr...
23:23Um...
23:24Now, don't tell me.
23:33Riley.
23:34Chester A. Riley.
23:36How do you do?
23:37How do you do?
23:37How do you...
23:38How do you do?
23:44Well...
23:45Now that we're all here, let's see...
23:48Uh...
23:49Uh...
23:49We can have a round-robin checker tournament, or...
23:54Well...
23:55Well, we...
23:55We can all go down and bowl a few games.
23:57I...
23:58I bowled last night with my plant team.
24:00We played Slotkin's Plumbing Supplies.
24:02And it was very close until...
24:04I think they want to be alone, Mr. Riley.
24:11Well, I don't get it.
24:12Hold on.
24:13I'll explain it to you outside.
24:16I don't want to go outside.
24:18We can't...
24:19You can't do this.
24:20This isn't polite, you know.
24:24All right.
24:25Unlock the handcuffs.
24:27So that's how it is, Mr. Riley.
24:30You don't have to say anything.
24:31If you're in love, just looking at the other person is enough.
24:36Just looking is enough?
24:38Yeah.
24:40Here we are.
24:42Oh, boy!
24:43Kate!
24:44Hey, wait a minute.
24:45Come here!
24:51Maybe if I rub it, something will happen.
25:00Peg, give me a minute, will you?
25:01What is it, dear?
25:11Riley, you didn't shave this morning.
25:13Go do it right now.
25:14And put some drops in your eyes.
25:16They're all bloodshops.
