00:00:47Where everybody, everybody comes around
00:00:49And they jam the door and they crowd the floor
00:00:52They climb the wall and they have a ball
00:00:55And they twist around the clock
00:00:59Well, do you want to build a stomp, a slop, a fish, a bop, a fly, fly?
00:01:08Well, I insist that everybody twist!

00:01:51зачем is here, at least for you, let it twist!
00:01:53Thanks again!
00:01:53Hey, hey!
00:02:05OK, thanks again!
00:02:05Then they all vai in the hole
00:02:06And then they all are are
00:02:3612 customers all night, 12. Mason, this is your fault, nobody else's butt. What's the matter
00:02:42with the jerks in this town? Didn't they ever hear of me? I think they did, that's the trouble.
00:02:46Are you trying to pull a funny, Mason? Yeah, I'm hysterical. Don't leave your clothes here
00:02:51tonight, fellas, we're through. Canceled out. That's the third time on this tour. What kind
00:02:58of manager are you anyhow? Can't you book us into a town where the people are still living?
00:03:02Jimmy, you'd better listen to me. Listen? Listen to what? Excuses? What do you want to do,
00:03:06give me advice, Daddy-O? You forgetting my last two records sold a million each? You forgetting
00:03:11that, Big Daddy? Your last record was almost three years ago. And if you can hear me through
00:03:16those sideburns of yours, there aren't going to be any more records. As a matter of fact,
00:03:21there aren't going to be any more club dates either. Rock and roll has had it, Daddy-O.
00:03:26There aren't enough rock and rollers left in this country to keep you in tight pants and suede shoes.
00:03:31So either get a haircut and change the band style, or go back to being a busboy.
00:03:37I'm going to write the union about this. No kidding. When did you learn to write?
00:03:42Oh, you hear that, children? Now he says I can't write. You like the way I write my name on
00:03:48that
00:03:48paycheck every week. Sure, it was fine. Soon as I explained to the bank what the X stood for.
00:03:54You're fired. Good. That makes it easier. I didn't want you to think I was a rat deserting a sinking
00:04:00ship. Get out of my sight. Get to see you, fellas. Good luck, Mitch. Hey, Mitch, wait.
00:04:05When the ship is sinking, I don't mind being called a rat. Mitch, boy, I'm with you.
00:04:10Dizzy, you leave me and I'll sue you. Happy? You wouldn't do that to one of your old children
00:04:14now, would you? Where are we going? New York, I suppose. Maybe I can get a job with one of
00:04:20those
00:04:20agencies. Mitch, you're not thinking about Debbie Marshall. I'm telling you, that girl...
00:04:26I'm not thinking of anything. Do we leave in the morning? I'll be right at eight. Soon as I burn
00:04:32these suede shoes and these tight pants. Man, you know, since I've been playing rock and
00:04:36roll, I haven't been able to bend over.
00:04:56Quiet, peaceful. How do you like this for relaxing? This is relaxing? Well, according to this map,
00:05:04by tonight, we should reach a great thriving metropolis called Alpine Peaks. Sounds like
00:05:11the name of some Indian squaw. You'll kill me.
00:05:25Welcome to Alpine Peaks. Population 1,379. Calitude 8,976. Man, this is the first town I've ever been
00:05:35in. They had more feet than people. Not if there's only a hotel or a motel.
00:05:46I think they got the whole population in one car. Okay, kids.
00:05:50Wait for you. Get out of the way. Get out of the way. Get out of the way. See you
00:05:56at the desk, mister. Don't forget your sandpaper shoes.
00:06:01That kid say sandpaper shoes? Yeah. Must be great for guys with wooden legs.
00:06:30Evening, neighbors. Do something for you? You have to have an empty cabin? Nothing else but.
00:06:38Yeah. Slick as a whistle. Pretty, ain't she? Are you by any chance sandpapering those shoes?
00:06:47Why, certainly, mister. When you start twisting, you just gotta give yourself every advantage you can.
00:06:53Why, you know a fella could break a leg without smooth shoes?
00:06:57Oh, sure. Everybody knows that. Fixin' on stayin' long?
00:07:02Just tonight. Be pulling out in the morning. Could you tell me where everybody's going?
00:07:06Oh, to the dance. It's Saturday night.
00:07:10Everybody's going? Most, I'd say.
00:07:12At least, wise them has got nice sandpapered shoes.
00:07:17Well, I ain't gotta be on my way. You fellas just help yourself to cabin number six.
00:07:29You suppose they'd let us into that dance with just ordinary beat-up shoes?
00:07:35Us? You flipped your wig or something? Man, I'm clobbered.
00:07:41I wanna go to little old cabin number six.
00:07:44People are dancin' here, Dizzy.
00:07:45When's the last time you saw a mob like that headed for a dance?
00:07:48We gotta find out why. Now, Saturday night.
00:07:52Go to the cabin, get washed up, then go have a look at that dance hall.
00:07:59Oh, and you see, yeah.
00:08:01We can do that.
00:08:09Come on, everybody.
00:08:14Oh, and everybody.
00:08:16Everybody, everybody.
00:08:17Everybody.
00:08:18Oh, and everybody.
00:08:19Yeah, the good life.
00:08:20Everybody move around and roll.
00:08:22And you lift your legs up and down
00:08:25And you lift your legs up and down.
00:08:25And you press around the clock
00:08:32Well, there's a crazy little place in this big town
00:08:35Where everybody, everybody comes around
00:08:37And they jam the door and they crowd the floor
00:08:40Climb the wall and they have a ball
00:08:42And they twist around the clock
00:08:46Well, do you want to do the slop?
00:08:50Slide, fish, bop, stomp, lie
00:08:54Well, I insist that everybody twist, come on
00:08:58That guy sure is no hog collar
00:09:01He's good
00:09:01I wonder what he's doing in a town like this
00:09:04I don't know
00:09:05Maybe they don't send you to jail in this state
00:09:07They send you to Alpine Peaks
00:09:09And you lift your legs up and down
00:09:12And you twist around the clock
00:09:17Twist, yeah
00:09:19Twist, hey
00:09:22Yeah, twist, now
00:09:24Twist around the clock
00:09:33All right, everybody

00:10:01Yeah, twist
00:10:03I said twist
00:10:05It goes like this
00:10:07Yeah, twist
00:10:08Oh, twist
00:10:09Twist is here to stay
00:10:11Well, now

00:10:18Turn to your right
00:10:19Tonight we're gonna twist
00:10:20Here on my left
00:10:21Twist
00:10:22Yeah, yeah
00:10:23Twist
00:10:25I said twist
00:10:27Yeah, yeah
00:10:28Twist
00:10:29Oh, twist
00:10:30Yeah, twist
00:10:31Twist is here to stay
00:10:33Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:10:47Well, you twist to the left
00:10:48Twist to the right
00:10:49Yeah, everything's gonna be all right
00:10:51Twist to the left
00:10:52Twist to the right
00:10:53We're gonna be twisting here all night
00:10:55Yeah, yeah
00:10:57I said twist
00:10:58And this is the first place I've ever been in
00:11:00Which the hip bone ain't connected with the knee bone
00:11:02And the knee bone ain't connected
00:11:03What is it, Tizzy?
00:11:03What are they doing?
00:11:04I don't know
00:11:06Looks like they're trying to get out of their winter underwear
00:11:08It's not just the kids
00:11:10Whatever that dance is
00:11:11It's got them all doing it
00:11:15Hey, sister
00:11:16Can you stop your motor for a minute?
00:11:17Can't stop now, brother
00:11:19My brakes need relining
00:11:23Hey, baby
00:11:24That dance got a name
00:11:25Can you see what I'm doing?
00:11:27Yeah, you're twisting yourself into a nervous breakdown
00:11:29That's it, brother
00:11:30The twist
00:11:32And if you bruise easily
00:11:33Oh, stay away from my hips
00:12:05So that's what they call it
00:12:06I'll hang around, Claire
00:12:07I'll hang around, Claire
00:12:08When I get the full treatment
00:12:08Stick around
00:12:11I don't twist
00:12:12I don't twist
00:12:13With anyone else but me
00:12:23How come nobody's motor's running?
00:12:25Because when a racing car starts coming
00:12:27The hay wagons get out of the way
00:12:38Man, what's that?
00:12:40A racing car
00:12:41Dig those crazy headlights
00:12:43I don't twist
00:12:44I don't twist
00:12:45I don't twist
00:12:45With anyone else but me
00:12:47Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:12:48I let you
00:12:48Whistle on the floor
00:12:50Twist it
00:12:51Oh, it'll be up my door
00:12:52Twist it
00:12:53I let you
00:12:54You're wrong
00:12:55Twist it
00:12:56As I've come down
00:12:57Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:13:01Oh, great
00:13:02I don't twist
00:13:09I don't twist
00:13:10With anyone else but me
00:13:12Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:13:13Yo!
00:13:23I don't twist
00:13:24I don't twist
00:13:26With anyone else but me
00:13:27Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:13:28I let you
00:13:29Whistle on the floor
00:13:31Twist it
00:13:32On to your front door
00:13:33Twist it
00:13:34And to your floor
00:13:36Twist it
00:13:36Together
00:13:37From now on
00:13:48I don't twist
00:13:49I don't twist
00:13:51With anyone else but me
00:13:53I won't twist
00:13:55I won't twist
00:13:56With anyone else but me
00:13:58Hey, hey, ho!
00:14:10I beg your pardon
00:14:11I'd like to have a word
00:14:12With you two if I may
00:14:13Well, you better talk
00:14:14Talk to my sister
00:14:14My shoes need re-sanding
00:14:16After that last one
00:14:18I'm Mitch Mason
00:14:19I'm a talent manager
00:14:21Can it wait till after the dance, Mr. Mason?
00:14:23I promise to show a couple of the kids
00:14:24Some new movements
00:14:25Sure
00:14:30That kid makes up new movements
00:14:31Without even trying
00:14:33I tell you, you're all wasting your time here, Miss Loudon
00:14:36You, your brother, Clay and the boys
00:14:38Let me manage you
00:14:40And I'll guarantee to make you a fortune
00:14:42In money?
00:14:43Are you serious?
00:14:44Of course Clay's serious
00:14:45We don't always make money
00:14:47Depends on how the crops go
00:14:48Sometimes we get paid in carrots
00:14:50Sometimes turnips
00:14:51Sometimes...
00:14:52Okay, okay
00:14:53Yes, I mean money
00:14:55What would we have to do?
00:14:57You're a singer
00:14:58The boys are musicians, aren't they?
00:15:00Only on Saturday night
00:15:01The rest of the time
00:15:02Clay's a tractor mechanic
00:15:03Joe has a farm
00:15:04Suppose every night was Saturday night
00:15:07That'd sure mess up the rest of the week
00:15:09I mean, how would you like to dance every night with the boys?
00:15:12I can book you into New York
00:15:14And I'm willing to bet the bunch of you
00:15:16That you could start a whole new dance craze
00:15:19Are you talking about the twist?
00:15:21Exactly
00:15:22I don't know, Mr. Mason
00:15:24What's good for people here
00:15:25Might not be the answer elsewhere
00:15:28I'm not asking you to give up your jobs
00:15:30Not yet
00:15:31Not till I get you a concrete offer
00:15:34Once you get started
00:15:35You'll have to forget about tractors
00:15:36And seeds
00:15:38That's sure a big step
00:15:40Well, Tina usually does that kind of thinking for us
00:15:43They have security here, Mr. Mason
00:15:45You call this security being on top of a mountain?
00:15:48You've got talent
00:15:49Talent is something you can sell for big money
00:15:51Not onions and turnips
00:15:54Now, do we all ride the gravy train together?
00:15:56How much gravy do you expect?
00:15:59We'll split 60-40
00:16:00We'll take 40
00:16:0240%?
00:16:03All you deserve is 10
00:16:05Where'd you get that kind of information?
00:16:07She went to school in the flatlands
00:16:09I'm not an agent
00:16:10I'm a manager
00:16:11Managers often make 60-40 deals with their clients
00:16:14We'll have to think about it
00:16:16How long?
00:16:18Till you come down from that 40%
00:16:19We'll both think about it
00:16:21My father has the motel here
00:16:23When you've made up your mind
00:16:24That's where you can reach us
00:16:26Come on, Larry
00:16:27Let's go
00:16:31Don't look at me, Mr. Mason
00:16:32If Tina doesn't like the 60-40 deal
00:16:35There's nothing I can do about it
00:16:36What does she want?
00:16:38You got me
00:16:39All I know is
00:16:40We always get 100% of the onions and turnips
00:16:47I had to pick a dancer
00:16:49That went to school in the flatlands
00:16:51So, what are you lost?
00:16:53Nothing about a big fat headache
00:16:54I might have known you couldn't book a new outfit anywhere
00:16:57Without going through Debbie Marshall's old man
00:16:58I'd have found a way
00:17:00Oh, sure
00:17:01Since the Marshall agency owns every big top band
00:17:04Big act from California to New York
00:17:06You know where it ended up?
00:17:08Some broken down joint
00:17:09That you couldn't make four bucks in
00:17:11Okay
00:17:12If I had had to
00:17:13I would have gone to New York to see Joe Marshall
00:17:15Are you out of your cotton-picking mind?
00:17:17You can't go around asking Joe Marshall for favors
00:17:20Especially since you ran out on his daughter
00:17:22Are you know where you're going to wind up?
00:17:24Married to Debbie
00:17:25Joe Marshall's no idiot
00:17:28If I can convince him that there's a bundle to be made
00:17:31Maybe he'll forget about his daughter
00:17:33Maybe Joe will
00:17:35But Debbie wouldn't
00:17:37Man, you are the only thing in Debbie's life she couldn't have
00:17:41You are her one big defeat
00:17:43Her Waterloo
00:17:44Only remember
00:17:45Dames never lose the last battle
00:17:47So what are we supposed to do?
00:17:49Starve because of Debbie Marshall?
00:17:53Dizzy, I tell you
00:17:54If I can sign Tina and the combo
00:17:56And promote them right
00:17:57I know I'd have a sensation on my hands
00:18:00Now the face and figure on that Tina, babe
00:18:03She must have been promoted by experts
00:18:06I'm not talking about that kind of promo
00:18:11Maybe I am
00:18:14Sure
00:18:16Romance, Dizzy
00:18:17That should soften her up into making a good deal
00:18:21Hey, now, wait a minute
00:18:23If you start dating that Tina, babe
00:18:25You better remember the farmers up here carry shotguns
00:18:28She's no farmer's daughter
00:18:29Her father owns a motel
00:18:31In that case, he probably owns a cannon
00:19:01So, let's go
00:19:09I'm ready.
00:19:18Didn't take me long to change.
00:19:21Just long enough.
00:19:22I was wondering what you'd look like in a bathing suit.
00:19:25I bet you were.
00:19:27Well, I have to have my imagination overhauled.
00:19:29You look better than what I dreamed up.
00:19:31Thanks.
00:19:34Smell the strawberries?
00:19:36They grow wild around here.
00:19:38You come here often?
00:19:39Often as I can.
00:19:41That's what drives them wild.
00:19:44You don't waste much time, do you?
00:19:47That's my imagination again.
00:19:48In a hurry.
00:19:50Men's imaginations are always faster than they are.
00:19:53Huh?
00:19:54You're working up to the point where you think you can kiss me.
00:19:57I never said...
00:19:58It's all right.
00:20:00There.
00:20:01It's finished.
00:20:02Now we can talk about other things.
00:20:04Who wants to talk about other things?
00:20:07You do.
00:20:08To you, I'm just a silly romantic girl who will want to give you 40% when all you deserve
00:20:13is 10.
00:20:14I never said anything.
00:20:17Let's start the argument with 30%.
00:20:20If you think you can do business...
00:20:2420%?
00:20:26You're taking advantage of me.
00:20:29Isn't that what you wanted to do to me?
00:20:31You're also too suspicious.
00:20:3710%.
00:20:3710%.
00:20:38Now, wait a minute.
00:20:39I'm no silly romantic guy that's going to take 10% when he should get 40%.
00:20:47Okay.
00:20:48Okay.
00:20:48So I've heard the line before.
00:20:49You object to the way I do business?
00:20:53I'm not sure yet.
00:21:0240%.
00:21:04Well, let's be fair about this.
00:21:0725%.
00:21:08Then it's a deal.
00:21:10Mr. Mason, are you leveling with us?
00:21:13Managing talent is my business.
00:21:15If I don't get them a job, I don't pay my bills.
00:21:19All right.
00:21:20It's a deal.
00:21:21I'll start from New York in the morning.
00:21:23Dizzy will stay here and help you work out some more routines.
00:21:27I guess I'm kind of scared.
00:21:29There's a lot of world outside Alpine Peaks.
00:21:33Don't worry, honey.
00:21:35The public's going to dig you the most.
00:21:38And just remember what Christopher Columbus always said.
00:21:41The world's no square.
00:22:02Why, Mr. Mason.
00:22:04Hi, kid.
00:22:05It's good to see you again.
00:22:06I wonder if Mr. Marshall will feel the same way.
00:22:09We can find out.
00:22:12And Mr. Mason to see Mr. Marshall.
00:22:20No explosion.
00:22:21Go right in.
00:22:22Send the spider to the fly.
00:22:42Oh, so it's you.
00:22:44Isn't that what your receptionist told you?
00:22:46Well, I was hoping there might be a different Mitch Mason in the world.
00:22:50What did you do?
00:22:51Read the paper and find out how much money I was making?
00:22:54Change your mind about my daughter?
00:22:56That's my trouble, Joe.
00:22:58Love money.
00:22:59Hate marriage.
00:23:02What else is new?
00:23:03Well, I hate to admit it, but Debbie still keeps your picture in her bedroom.
00:23:07No kidding?
00:23:08Yeah, she throws rocks at it every night.
00:23:11Oh.
00:23:12How's her aim?
00:23:13Improving.
00:23:16How come you're not still out in the flea bags with Cook?
00:23:19Rock and roll is on the ropes.
00:23:22Kaput.
00:23:24So now you broke me the job, hmm?
00:23:28Okay, Mitch.
00:23:29You know how you can get a junior partnership with me?
00:23:32Yeah.
00:23:33By letting Debbie throw rocks at me in her bedroom instead of at my picture.
00:23:38Well, what's wrong with trying to raise a lot of little talent managers?
00:23:41You're a tough character, Joe, and I respect you for it.
00:23:44But how long would you respect me if I married Debbie just to get a job?
00:23:47Okay, so lots of guys hate their sons-in-law.
00:23:50Thanks, Joe, but I'd rather have you hate me for my own reasons.
00:23:54Okay, what else can I do for you?
00:23:56If you could use a little more money on how you can get it.
00:24:00You got a deal?
00:24:01A hot one.
00:24:02But you need me.
00:24:05Yeah, I need you.
00:24:08Well, I'm loaded with appointments today.
00:24:09Suppose we talk about it tonight.
00:24:11Anytime you say.
00:24:12I've got to go to the Severn Club to talk to Dion about a new booking.
00:24:15We can have dinner there.
00:24:16You won't regret it, Joe.
00:24:17I don't regret anything.
00:24:18That's what makes me a tough character.
00:24:48I don't even know my name.
00:24:49They call me the Wanderer.
00:24:51Yeah, the Wanderer.
00:24:53I roam around.
00:24:57Oh, well, there's Flo on my left.
00:25:00And there's Mary on my right.
00:25:02And Janie is the girl, well, that I'll be with tonight.
00:25:06And when she asks me which one I love the best,
00:25:10I tear her over my shirt and I show her Rosie on my chest.
00:25:14Cause I'm a Wanderer.
00:25:16Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:25:18Yeah, I roam around, around, around, around, around.
00:25:22Oh, well, I roam from town to town.
00:25:26I go through life without a care.
00:25:30And I'm as happy as a clown.
00:25:34I'm with my two fists divine, but I'm going no way on.
00:25:39Oh, yeah, I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around.
00:25:43I'm never in one place.
00:25:45I roam from town to town.
00:25:47And when I find myself, I'm falling for some girl.
00:25:51Yeah, I'll hop right into that car of mine.
00:25:54I drive around the world.
00:25:55Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:25:57Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:25:58Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:01Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:08Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:17Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:19Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:21Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:21Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:21Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:22Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:24Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:27Yeah, I'm a Wanderer.
00:26:31That likes to roam around
00:26:32I'm never in one place
00:26:35I roam from town to town
00:26:37And when I find myself
00:26:39I'm falling for some girl
00:26:41I hop right in that car of mine
00:26:43Drive around the world
00:26:45Cause I'm a wanderer
00:26:46Yeah, a wanderer
00:26:49I roam around, around, around
00:26:51Cause I'm a wanderer
00:26:55Yeah, a wanderer
00:26:57I roam around, around, around
00:27:18Good evening, Mr. Marshall
00:27:20This way, please
00:27:25Joe
00:27:27You didn't tell me Debbie was gonna be here
00:27:32Hello, Stinker
00:27:33Of course he didn't tell you
00:27:34I wanted to save me as a surprise for you
00:27:36Okay, Debbie
00:27:37I'm surprised
00:27:39Now, where do we go to talk business, Joe?
00:27:41You know something
00:27:41If she weren't my daughter
00:27:42I wouldn't mind sitting down
00:27:43Go on, sit down
00:27:45She can't marry in the seven club
00:27:47Champagne
00:27:48Pick a good year, General
00:27:49Yes, Mr. Marshall
00:27:51You go right ahead and talk, Mitch
00:27:53Just forget I'm here
00:27:55Mitch was telling me about a new act
00:27:56He found out in the boondocks
00:27:58It's not just an act, Joe
00:27:59I told you these kids could start a whole new dance track
00:28:03Motored right
00:28:04Could be greater than rock and roll
00:28:06What do you think, hon?
00:28:08I don't know
00:28:09Why don't you tell me more about it while we're dancing?
00:28:12Debbie, I didn't
00:28:12Go ahead, Mitch
00:28:14I value Debbie's opinion very highly
00:28:18My pleasure
00:28:27There, I hate long-distance conversations
00:28:29This kind of dancing should be done in private
00:28:31Mitch, you're positively archaic
00:28:33If we're up to you, you bring back the Stone Age
00:28:35Fine
00:28:36That's when men used to hit their women over the heads with clubs
00:28:39You know it's a year since I've seen you, Mitch?
00:28:42I haven't exactly counted the days
00:28:44You can't make me angry
00:28:46My skin is as tough as my father's
00:28:48I know, I can feel it
00:28:50A man should have a wife who's soft when she should be
00:28:53And tough when she has to be
00:28:54And what kind of a husband should she have?
00:28:56The one she wants
00:28:59If you're hungry, we can order dinner
00:29:01And you want to hear about the kids I found or don't you?
00:29:04All right, I'll save your ear for dessert
00:29:06They do a new kind of dance
00:29:08One that hasn't been seen outside of Alpine Peace
00:29:11It's called The Twist
00:29:13You've been keeping these in storage for me, Mitch?
00:29:16It's got a six-piece combo with a singer
00:29:18Boy and girl dance team
00:29:19The band's got a new beat
00:29:20The team introduces The Twist
00:29:23You shouldn't have come back, Mitch
00:29:25Now I want you more than ever
00:29:28Now if your father could just book them into the right spot
00:29:30Get them a showcase
00:29:31And let Tina Loudon belt out the dance the way she does
00:29:34It'll be a smash
00:29:36That girl's got everything
00:29:37She's young, fresh, and beautiful
00:29:40I tell you
00:29:41She sparkles like a 40-carat diamond
00:29:44Just how old is this kid?
00:29:472021
00:29:47I don't know, what's the difference?
00:29:50But old enough?
00:29:52Old enough for what?
00:29:54Not Debbie
00:29:55All right
00:29:56We'll discuss it with Father
00:30:04You want my opinion of Mitch's people?
00:30:06I've been waiting
00:30:07Well, the singer and the band sound all right
00:30:09But that kind of dance team is really passe
00:30:12Passe?
00:30:12How can you introduce a new dance without a dance team?
00:30:15I couldn't care less
00:30:17Could I, Father?
00:30:18Probably not
00:30:21Too bad about the dance team, Mitch
00:30:23Especially the girl in it
00:30:25Oh
00:30:27She got something Debbie hasn't got?
00:30:30Yeah
00:30:31She doesn't want to marry me
00:30:32How convenient for you
00:30:36Forget the whole thing, Joe
00:30:38Forget I ever walked into your office this morning
00:30:41I'll think about you kids, Mitch
00:30:42Let you know tomorrow
00:30:44Forget it
00:30:47What do you mean you'll let them know about it tomorrow?
00:30:49You should have seen the look in his eyes when he talked about that girl
00:30:53You really want him that much?
00:30:55Have I ever wanted anybody else?
00:30:58That beats me
00:30:59You could have had 20 other guys for just winking one eye
00:31:01But you've got to knock yourself out after him
00:31:04Well, you won't get him the way you're going after him
00:31:08And you won't get rid of the other girl with your tactics
00:31:11What do you want me to do?
00:31:12Write to the advice to the lovelorn for help?
00:31:16Well, I've always gotten you everything you ever wanted
00:31:21Maybe I can get him for you, too
00:31:24Oh?
00:31:25You thought of something really dirty and Machiavellian, I hope?
00:31:31I'm your a chip off the old block
00:31:42Gary?
00:31:43Yes?
00:31:43Come in
00:31:50About that lady's auxiliary, Charity Bazaar in Boston
00:31:52Two weeks from today
00:31:54It's all set, Revere's band plays the date
00:31:56Cancel him
00:31:58Cancel him? But Chief is...
00:31:59Get him another booking
00:32:00I've got a new group to play that date
00:32:02Something high class, Chief
00:32:03You know how those old society characters are
00:32:05They'll want real sweet, quiet music
00:32:07Heavy on the fiddles, light on the brass
00:32:09This combo is right on the nose
00:32:11Just right for Mrs. Vanderveer's old charity ladies
00:32:13Well, what's the name of the outfit?
00:32:15Clay Cole, he's a singer
00:32:16He's backed by his own group
00:32:19Mitch Mason found him
00:32:22Okay, Joe, if you say so
00:32:25You know how they'll be received better than I do
00:32:28I think I know just how he'll be received
00:32:32I didn't know Mason was back in town
00:32:34Glass up your act with Debbie
00:32:36She still has Mason's picture in her bedroom
00:32:39How do you know what's in Debbie's bedroom?
00:32:42Well, she told me, Joe
00:32:43Believe me
00:32:45Okay, I guess that's the only way it can be
00:32:48I'll get that Charity Bazaar date set
00:32:50The sooner the better
00:33:01Matt!
00:33:02Hey, baby
00:33:05Hey, you act as if you really mean it
00:33:07We'd read all our guests that way
00:33:09Hi, Mitch Moore
00:33:09Hi, Dizzy
00:33:10Hiya, Mitch
00:33:11Hi, Larry
00:33:11Well, are we big Broadway stars or aren't we?
00:33:13Let's just say we'll be close to Broadway
00:33:15How close?
00:33:17Boston
00:33:17Boston?
00:33:18You mean the twist is ready for Boston?
00:33:20It's a one-night date
00:33:21Swank Hotel, Carver Towers
00:33:22Some kind of a charity affair
00:33:24Be a great break for you, kids
00:33:26The top booking agent in the business
00:33:28Will be there to catch your stuff
00:33:29Top booking agent, not Joe Marshall
00:33:32Yes, Joe Marshall
00:33:34What's wrong with Mr. Marshall?
00:33:36He's got a daughter, that's what
00:33:37Dizzy, look
00:33:38There weren't any strings attached
00:33:40No strings attached
00:33:41Just a rope around your neck
00:33:42Look, Mitch
00:33:43We're in no hurry
00:33:43If you don't want to do business with Mr. Marshall
00:33:45We'll just find some other way
00:33:47Dizzy's crazy
00:33:48I'm not gonna throw this opportunity down the drain
00:33:51Could be the start of everything for you
00:33:52And the finish for you
00:33:54Believe me
00:33:55Marshall's doing business my way
00:33:57Not his daughter's
00:33:58Mitch, does this girl love you?
00:34:01She throws rocks at my pictures
00:34:02And turns purple every time she hears my name
00:34:05She only loves herself
00:34:06So let's just forget about her
00:34:07All right
00:34:08Okay, kids
00:34:09Rehearsal every night until we leave
00:34:10You guys go tell the rest of the gang
00:34:16Honey, when you get there
00:34:18Boston's gonna be closer to Broadway
00:34:20Than it's ever been
00:34:37And when does the dancing start, Mrs. Van de Deer?
00:34:40I do so love a lively waltz
00:34:42Oh, you bad girl
00:34:44Why, you're positively sinful
00:34:47No, the dancing won't start for a while yet
00:34:49Charity first, you know
00:34:51We want everyone to spend money at the booths
00:35:06Kisses for charity?
00:35:09Just five dollars
00:35:13Uh, please, Miss Cranley
00:35:21No need
00:35:22I'm sure your lips must be tired by now
00:35:28I thought the kissing booth
00:35:29Quite a daring innovation this year
00:35:31Are you making a lot of money
00:35:33For sweet charity's sake, Cynthia?
00:35:35Mrs. Van de Veer
00:35:37Would you have any objections
00:35:39If I marked the price down to $3.98?
00:35:42Oh
00:35:47Man, that'll look like no twist crowd to me
00:35:50You're right
00:35:51But Joe Marshall should know what he's doing
00:35:54Mitch, this isn't some kind of a trick, is it?
00:35:57I mean, would Mr. Marshall
00:35:58We're getting paid for it, honey
00:35:59That's all we have to worry about
00:36:01And then the boys go back and get ready
00:36:09Mitch, boy, I don't like this
00:36:11Look at those dames
00:36:13Nothing but corsets and girdles
00:36:17You think they're gonna snap a garter
00:36:19Doing the twist?
00:36:23Yeah
00:36:33Are you sure you know what you're doing, Father?
00:36:36I certainly didn't want to come all the way to Boston with you
00:36:38Just to be humiliated
00:36:39You'll see
00:36:40Mitch is like a young colt that has to be broken before you can put a bridle on him
00:36:45You think this'll do it?
00:36:47Well, it'll break more than his spirit
00:36:49It'll break him where it hurts him the most, in the wallet
00:36:52Sooner or later, he'll have to come back to us
00:36:54Both of us
00:36:55Good, that's the way I want it
00:36:57You put a bridle on him, then I'll put a bridle veil on me
00:37:00Shall we head for the corral?
00:37:05Uh-oh
00:37:06Mr. Mason?
00:37:07Yes, Mrs. Van Deer
00:37:08You can start the dance music now
00:37:10Are you ready?
00:37:12Sure, all set
00:37:12Ah, excellent
00:37:15We're ready, what is she?
00:37:17We're about to find out
00:37:33Everything looks normal
00:37:34I think Mitch is just about to set the charity business back 50 years
00:37:39Shall we?
00:37:41Okay, kids
00:37:42This is it
00:37:44If it doesn't exactly look like Alpine Peaks
00:37:46Remember, people are people everywhere
00:37:50Good luck, honey
00:37:51Make sure they get the message
00:37:54All right, Clay
00:37:55Let's ride
00:37:57Did you see him kiss her?
00:38:00It's nice to know where your competition is
00:38:09I'm over here
00:38:10Over there
00:38:12Over there
00:38:13Over here
00:38:13Play on everywhere
00:38:18What is it?
00:38:19What's happening?
00:38:20Oh, dear
00:38:21And I did so want to all
00:38:23Over here
00:38:25Over here
00:38:26Over here
00:38:26I see you
00:38:27I see you
00:38:28Everything you do
00:38:28Over here
00:38:37Why, Amelia
00:38:38Oh, Harvey, I'm sorry
00:38:41No, no, it's charming
00:38:43Do go on
00:38:44Of course, Harvey
00:38:46If you like
00:38:47If you like
00:38:51Amelia
00:38:52Will you marry me?
00:38:54I said
00:38:55When you can't get away from me
00:38:59It's savage
00:39:01I'll put a stop to it
00:39:02I'll put a stop to it
00:39:03Oh, no, Mrs. Ranville
00:39:03Please don't stop it
00:39:05I'll see that my father donates $10,000 to a charity
00:39:09But why he shoot you?
00:39:11They're playing our song
00:39:12Come, Amelia
00:39:14Over on
00:39:15Over here
00:39:15Over there
00:39:16And everywhere
00:39:17I'm a yes-to-to-to-see
00:39:19Oh, there
00:39:22That's it
00:39:23A yes-to-to-see
00:39:24with a sale
00:39:24And you can't get away from me
00:39:26Here we go
00:39:27Let's not get on
00:39:30Here we go
00:39:31He played
00:39:50Don't try to run, don't try to hide
00:39:54Daddy is by your side
00:39:56No matter what you say or do
00:40:00Daddy's gonna follow you over here, over there
00:40:04Over here, there, everywhere
00:40:07I'm a y-t-t-t-tale
00:40:10Yeah, I'm a y-t-t-t-t-tale
00:40:13I'm a y-t-t-t-t-t-tale
00:40:15And you can't get away from me
00:40:19I'm over here now
00:40:20I'm over here now
00:40:23Father, you and your big fat ideas
00:40:26It's not possible
00:40:28It's just not possible
00:40:30Not grown people
00:40:34Do you mind if we leave?
00:40:36What's the hurry, Debbie?
00:40:38You got all those gloating speeches you were gonna throw at me?
00:40:41I find the whole thing vulgar and I don't care to stay
00:40:45That's too bad
00:40:46I thought you might like to see how the other half lives
00:40:48Mitch, what is happening here tonight is a fluke, a phony
00:40:52Those people are only dancing out of boredom
00:40:55Sure, the whole world's bored
00:40:56Bored with thinking about the atom bomb and bomb shelters and fallout and everything else that's bad
00:41:01If dance makes them feel better, what's the difference what the medicine is?
00:41:05The people that dance to my father's bands are not sick
00:41:08There's your answer, Mitch
00:41:10I don't sell that kind of stuff
00:41:12No, you sold the Shimmy, Black Bottom, the Charleston and rock and roll
00:41:16When did you get religion, Joe?
00:41:18Your daughter gave you the word?
00:41:20I don't want the act
00:41:21And that's that
00:41:22We thought what pleased the people would please you, Mr. Marshall
00:41:25Isn't that the way it's supposed to work?
00:41:28I'm sure that my father is quite capable of running his own business, Miss Loudon
00:41:33Oh, I'm sorry
00:41:35I thought you were running the business
00:41:46Well, we're in for a tough time, kids
00:41:49No jobs, no prospects
00:41:52All we can do is head for New York as soon as this shindig is over
00:41:59Well, Svengali
00:42:00Have you got any more wonderful ideas rattling around in your head?
00:42:03If you were any younger, I'd spank you
00:42:05And I'd put a dunce cap on you
00:42:07Why don't you pick a husband you can get?
00:42:09I will get the one I want
00:42:11Only the next idea will be mine
00:42:13Fine
00:42:14In the meantime, I'm going to fix that smart aleck Mason
00:42:17So he and his unit don't work anywhere
00:42:18Taxi!
00:42:21Everybody quit!
00:42:23There's Kristen in London
00:42:26The rest of England too
00:42:29So what's the score?
00:42:31Two weeks in New York
00:42:32Two dozen turndowns
00:42:33Two dozen bucks left in our pocket
00:42:37Two and two together and what do you get?
00:42:39Two-two depressing
00:42:46Hey, that record
00:42:48Does that ring a bell?
00:42:49If it did, I couldn't hear it
00:42:51I've been counted out
00:42:52Hey, no kidding, Mitch
00:42:53That's Chubby Checker
00:42:54He's at the Seven Club now
00:42:56I'm glad somebody's working
00:42:57Well, you know who's emceeing there
00:43:00No
00:43:01Georgie Clark
00:43:03You remember Georgie?
00:43:04He used to run the Alamo Theater down in Texas
00:43:06Alamo Theater?
00:43:07Yeah
00:43:08And you loaned him $1,000 to put on a show?
00:43:12Dizzy, you don't think often
00:43:13But when you do, you make up for lost time
00:43:15Chubby is our man
00:43:17The king will help his loyal subjects
00:43:19And Georgie will take us to see the king
00:43:21Baby, you get back to your place and change your clothes
00:43:23The Seven Club?

00:45:58Oh, no problem

00:46:02Yeah, George
00:46:05Hey, Chub, you know Tina and Mitch
00:46:06Hi, you don't have to tell me about them
00:46:08I caught their act, it's great
00:46:09Thanks, Chubby
00:46:10We got a problem
00:46:11Come on, sit down
00:46:12Let's talk about them
00:46:15So that's all there is to it, Chubby
00:46:17I can't prove a thing
00:46:18Maybe Marshall's black boldest
00:46:19Maybe he hasn't
00:46:20But nobody will even call me
00:46:24Let's see
00:46:25All you need is a break
00:46:27I got an idea
00:46:28You'll work here at the Club 7
00:46:31I'll develop a slight case
00:46:32Some laryngitis
00:46:34Chubby, that's asking too much
00:46:35No, that's all right
00:46:36One twisted to another
00:46:37And everything's gonna be all right
00:46:39Look, before I get sick

00:47:18My whole heart just flips
00:47:21And I find on my mind
00:47:23The whole night through
00:47:24The thing to do
00:47:26Is to get her next to your lips
00:47:28Oh, I wanna kiss your lips

00:48:55Bum!
00:48:56Bum!
00:48:56Bum!
00:48:59Thanks, George.
00:49:00Tell Chubby he's still the king.
00:49:02Yeah, and if anybody asks you,
00:49:04You tell him,
00:49:04Georgie Clark, remember the Alamo.
00:49:06Ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:55:55Yeah, yeah
00:55:56I said twist
00:55:57Oh, oh, oh
00:55:59Twist
00:55:59Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:56:01Twist
00:56:01I Laughlin'
00:56:41It took you long enough to think up an idea of how to handle Mitch.
00:56:44Not just any idea.
00:56:46It had to be one that I knew would work.
00:56:50Chief, you gotta let me read you something.
00:56:52Hello, Debbie. I didn't know you were here.
00:56:54Hi, Old Faithful. You stopped phoning me.
00:56:56Oh, when you started calling me Mitch, I gave up.
00:56:59What's that you're waving around?
00:57:00More telegrams. Chief, you just can't go on ignoring this twist stuff anymore.
00:57:04Every hotel and club in the country is wiring in for information.
00:57:07The only information you can give them is that we don't handle that kind of music.
00:57:11And all because of Mitch Mason.
00:57:13Chief, an agency has to keep up with the times or fall on its face.
00:57:18Debbie, listen to me. Forget Mitch. He's in love with Tina Loudon.
00:57:22He's not even looking at other women.
00:57:24So you think it's all decided?
00:57:26Tina wants a ring on her finger, and you and your father want to put a ring through Mitch's nose.
00:57:30Now, which do you think he'd rather have?
00:57:32Well, the thing to do, Harry, dear, is to make sure he has no choice.
00:57:36I'd say it's none of your business, Harry.
00:57:40Call Mitch and tell him to come over here this afternoon.
00:57:42Tell him it's important.
00:57:44Well, you can't say I haven't tried.
00:57:45I want you, you want Mitch.
00:57:48And never the twain shall meet.
00:57:49You're very sweet, Harry.
00:57:52Probably if you didn't want me, I'd want you.
00:57:55C'est la guerre.
00:57:57As far as Mitch and I are concerned, that's one twain that's going to meet.
00:58:08No, no, no, no. I think it ought to go more like...
00:58:10Yeah.
00:58:11Prope for you, Mitch.
00:58:12Oh, thanks, Georgie.
00:58:13Hey, what's up?
00:58:13Hello.
00:58:14Oh, yeah.
00:58:15Oh, hello, Harry. How are you?
00:58:18It's Harry Davis.
00:58:20That's right, Harry. Things are really looking up.
00:58:23No, we haven't set any dates after the seven club.
00:58:27Oh, we've had offers, sure.
00:58:29But we're waiting to get booked into the right spot.
00:58:33Well, I might be able to make it down there this afternoon, Harry.
00:58:38Okay, tell Marshal I'll be there.
00:58:40See you later.
00:58:42Kids, we did it.
00:58:43The Marshal office is after us now.
00:58:45You want to bet?
00:58:46Well, what do we need them for?
00:58:47For one thing only.
00:58:48They handle class bookings.
00:58:49I don't want to see you kids working in joints.
00:58:51Oh, sure.
00:58:53I suppose from now on, the seven club won't be able to afford you people.
00:58:56Wait, buddy.
00:58:57We don't know what Marshal's deal is yet.
00:58:59Lots of luck.
00:58:59Well, whatever it is, we'd do it for nothing if you asked us to, Mr. Clark.
00:59:02Thanks, honey.
00:59:03But you must remember, this club made a lot of money from your gang in the last few months.
00:59:07More than they've ever made.
00:59:08And you better make sure you let Joe Marshal know it.
00:59:10He'll hear it so many times, he'll think it's a broken record.
00:59:13Yeah, we'll make so much money.
00:59:15We'll make so much money.
00:59:16We'll make so much money.
00:59:17We'll make so much money.
00:59:18Okay, so I was wrong about the twist.
00:59:21I'm ready to make you a new deal.
00:59:24Turn your contract with the unit over to the agency and come in with me as a partner.
00:59:27We'll split 50-50 on everything.
00:59:30Sell my bunch to you so you can sell them down the river.
00:59:33You'll never get another deal like that anywhere else.
00:59:35I haven't tried yet.
00:59:37Then it's no soap?
00:59:39No soap.
00:59:42What do you want?
00:59:44Bookings.
00:59:45The best I can get.
00:59:47Well, let's talk about a three-year deal without a partnership.
00:59:53You're getting warmer.
00:59:55I'm prepared to make such a deal with the unit opening in San Francisco right away.
00:59:59I'll talk to the kids about it and let you know.
01:00:02If they're smart, they'll take it.
01:00:03It'll guarantee their future.
01:00:05It wouldn't be so bad for yours either.
01:00:12I'll get back to you.
01:00:19Get me Tina Loudon on the phone.
01:00:21Right away.
01:00:26Now, about you, Miss Loudon.
01:00:28I'm sure you didn't ask me to dinner for social reasons, Mr. Marshall.
01:00:32Well, Mitch told you about the deal, of course.
01:00:33Yes.
01:00:35I wonder if you and the boys know the real value of that three-year term contract.
01:00:41$100,000 the first year, $200,000 the second, $300,000 the third.
01:00:45It seems almost too much to believe.
01:00:49One thing, however.
01:00:50See, you represent an investment.
01:00:53You become the idol of teenagers.
01:00:55Develop a big public.
01:00:56Hundreds of fan clubs.
01:00:57College boys will be voting you the girl they'd want most to be caught in a compromising situation.
01:01:02Our agency will be spending a fortune in publicity and exploitation, because the bigger you and your boys become, the
01:01:08more money we'll all make.
01:01:10But I want my investment protected.
01:01:14Of course, I can understand that.
01:01:17Okay, then.
01:01:17These are simple facts.
01:01:19If you get married, you won't be worth a dime to me or yourself.
01:01:23The kind of public you'll get doesn't want to think if you was being married.
01:01:27In short, you sign a clause that for the term of the contract, three years, you will not marry.
01:01:35Is this your daughter's idea?
01:01:36I mean, did she think of it herself?
01:01:38The part about me not getting married?
01:01:40What put that thought in your head?
01:01:43Oh, I just imagined it's something she might think of.
01:01:46Well, now, see here, young lady, I...
01:01:47Of course, she has no reason to be concerned.
01:01:50No one's asked me to get married.
01:01:51Yeah.
01:01:53I mean, they haven't.
01:01:56So, uh, let's see.
01:01:59For the life of the contract, I'm not to get married.
01:02:02Is that the way the contract would read?
01:02:04Exactly.
01:02:06Either you okay the clause, or the entire deal's off.
01:02:10Well, uh, if I kept the boys for making a lot of money just because I wanted to get married,
01:02:14I'd be a pretty big heel, wouldn't I?
01:02:17Yeah, a real heel.
01:02:21How long, uh, do you think it would take to make up the contracts?
01:02:25Four, five days.
01:02:26I can get on it right away.
01:02:28All right, Mr. Marshall.
01:02:30You make up the contracts just the way you want them, and I'll sign them.
01:02:35Takes a woman to be smart.
01:02:37Are you thinking of me or your daughter?
01:02:40You know something, young lady?
01:02:41My daughter's not smart.
01:02:42As a matter of fact, maybe she's dumb for wanting Mason so much.
01:02:46And now she'll get him.
01:02:48Frankly, I hope so, so I can have some peace.
01:02:51Okay, then, it's all settled.
01:02:53You and the boys will leave for San Francisco at the end of the week.
01:02:55All right.
01:02:57I'll discuss it with Mitch and the boys.
01:02:59You're a nice kid, Miss Loudon.
01:03:01Go out and have some fun.
01:03:04Be amazed at the number of men in this country who don't want to get married.
01:03:30Good morning, gentlemen.
01:03:31Good morning.
01:03:32It must be something important you wanted a meeting so early.
01:03:36At least it didn't keep you awake all last night.
01:03:39Once the gimmick came to me, I couldn't stop thinking about it.
01:03:42It's a promotion stunt.
01:03:44One that could rack up the biggest coast-to-coast dance audience in the history of show business.
01:03:48Look, it's early in the morning.
01:03:50Outside of coffee, nothing's going to keep me from yawning except money.
01:03:53You haven't mentioned that yet.
01:03:56We gain, the record companies gain, and the networks gain.
01:04:00And we can probably get a cut of the profits all around.
01:04:04Well, he sounds better than coffee to me.
01:04:06Instant coffee, gentlemen.
01:04:08Meaning instant money?
01:04:10There's no better kind.
01:04:12Okay, Mitch.
01:04:13Drop the bomb and let's see if we get 50 megatons.
01:04:16A jazz jamboree featuring the twist.
01:04:18We put in all the martial agency acts, plug their new records, boost their record sales, give the acts a
01:04:24showcase.
01:04:25And make Tina Loudon, Clay Cole and the Boys, and the twist national institutions.
01:04:30All on a coast-to-coast hookup with multiple sponsorship by advertisers.
01:04:35At least 50 megatons.
01:04:37Instant money.
01:04:38We set it up in Los Angeles.
01:04:40That town's always gone for those jazzy concerts.
01:04:43You got somebody to stage it for you?
01:04:45Georgie Clark.
01:04:46He's got the experience.
01:04:48Okay.
01:04:49Clark can leave for Los Angeles immediately and work with our west coast office.
01:04:52Harry, you back up Mitch for whatever help he needs.
01:04:55We take over one of those big halls the first week in July.
01:04:58After the schools are closed.
01:05:00That way the kids can all make it as well as the adults.
01:05:03July first week.
01:05:05I'll handle the networks from this end.
01:05:08Harry, start contacting all our top acts.
01:05:10Make sure that Chubby Checker and Dion are included.
01:05:13I want them all to have open dates for this jamboree deal.
01:05:15I'll get right on it.
01:05:17Oh, uh, Mitch.
01:05:19I suppose congratulations will be in order for you and Debbie.
01:05:23Where'd you hear that?
01:05:25Well, I kind of figured you'd be taking Tina Lawton's telephone number out of your little black book with the
01:05:29three-year no marriage clause in her contract.
01:05:33Old phone numbers never die, Harry.
01:05:36Sometimes they don't even fade away.
01:05:38Well, don't bet on it.
01:05:39Anything Debbie Marshall can't get in three years, she already has.
01:05:44How about it, Mitch?
01:05:46You got that Lawton girl out of your system enough to be sensible and think about giving me a couple
01:05:51of grandchildren?
01:05:55One jamboree at a time.
01:05:58See you later, Joe.
01:06:19Who's that?
01:06:28It's a sellout.
01:06:30I hope Dizzy's got everything running smoothly backstage.
01:06:32Two more minutes and your jamboree goes coast to coast.
01:06:35It's big, Mitch.
01:06:36Good idea.
01:06:37I think I'm more nervous than our kids must be.
01:06:39I enjoyed coming out with you on the plane, Mitch.
01:06:41I've always wanted to fly high with you, darling.
01:06:44It's too bad Harry isn't here to see this.
01:06:46Who needs him?
01:06:47Why don't you marry the guy so he can forget you?
01:06:51I stopped throwing rocks at your pictures in my bedroom.
01:06:54I now think of other things.
01:06:56One minute.
01:06:59I suppose you think I'm seven kinds of witch for making my father do the things he did to you.
01:07:04Eight.
01:07:04But considering why you did what you did, I suppose I should be flattered.
01:07:08Naturally.
01:07:09You know, Debbie, you wouldn't be a bad girl at all if you weren't so determined to run everyone else's
01:07:14life.
01:07:14Now you're talking like a big brother.
01:07:16I have no intention of being just a sister to you, Mitch.
01:07:20Eight o'clock.
01:07:21Here we go.
01:07:26Hey, now!
01:07:27Hey!
01:07:30Good evening.
01:07:32Good evening.
01:07:33This is Georgie Clark, all set to bring you this great jazz jamboree from gigantic Hollywood Hall in Los Angeles,
01:07:39California.
01:07:42And tonight, tonight you will see the greatest array of specialized talent ever to assemble on the one roof.
01:07:50Well, we're set to get this jamboree jamming, so let's start way out with Clay Cole and his boy!
01:08:04Hey!
01:08:06Hey!

01:14:26All right, now, here's something for the boys.
01:14:28A young girl we think is going to be a big star.
01:14:30Here is 16-year-old Vicki Spencer.
01:14:33Come on.
01:14:43I call my baby Sugar Pie, and if you want to know the reason why,
01:14:50because, ooh, he's so sweet.
01:14:56I call my baby Lollipop, and when he kisses me,
01:15:02I never want to stop, because, ooh, he's so sweet.
01:15:08He makes my head go round and round.
01:15:14I feel like I'm riding on a merry-go-round.
01:15:17He's got me spinning like a ferris wheel.
01:15:20It thrills me, so I, I want to squeal.
01:15:23I love my baby's loving ways.
01:15:27I'm going to let him love me for the rest of my days,
01:15:30because, ooh, he's so sweet.
01:15:49He makes my head go round and round.
01:15:53I feel like I'm riding on a merry-go-round.
01:15:56He's got me spinning like a ferris wheel.
01:15:59It thrills me, so I, I want to squeal.
01:16:02I love my baby's loving ways.
01:16:06I'm going to let him love me for the rest of my days,
01:16:09because, ooh, he's so sweet.

01:19:15It's a hit. It's a big, fat hit.
01:19:18Now can we talk about us?
01:19:20Well, everything's been said, Debbie.
01:19:22From now on, there just won't be any more to talk about
01:19:26And why not?
01:19:27Watch the stage
01:19:28What has that got to do with it?
01:19:30Just watch
01:19:34Ladies and gentlemen, before we go on to our big finale
01:19:37That living doll
01:19:38That twist and this chick
01:19:39Tina Loudon would like to say a few words to you
01:19:41Tina?
01:19:42Tina?
01:19:47I'd just like to say how thrilled everybody is here backstage
01:19:50With the way you received our show tonight
01:19:52And especially I'd like to thank our wonderful master of ceremonies
01:19:56Mr. Georgie Clark
01:19:57Who helped us put the show together
01:20:01And to a really wonderful person
01:20:03Without whom there'd be no twist at all
01:20:05My husband, Mitch Mason
01:20:09What's that crazy snip talking about?
01:20:12She said husband
01:20:12She should know
01:20:14Then you are married
01:20:15Legally
01:20:16My father has a contract
01:20:19Mitch, if you're really married to Tina
01:20:20I'll sue you for every cent you have
01:20:22I'll ruin all of you
01:20:23That girl will never perform on another stage
01:20:25No one breaks a contract with Joe Marshall
01:20:27I don't think you're gonna sue anybody, Joe
01:20:30It took you five days to prepare those contracts
01:20:33That clause you put in
01:20:34Merely said that Tina was not to get married for three years
01:20:38She won't
01:20:39But you just said
01:20:40She can't
01:20:41Tina and I got married before the contracts were signed
01:20:45Oh, no
01:20:47Yes
01:20:48Not smarted by an amateur from the Alpine Peaks
01:20:54I think you and Harry will be very happy
01:21:02Not angry?
01:21:04What good would it do me?
01:21:06I certainly don't want to take poison
01:21:07It would give me a stomachache
01:21:10Let's see
01:21:11There's Harry Davis
01:21:13It's a good thing I had another man warming up in the bullpen
01:21:16A one
01:21:17A two
01:21:17A three
01:21:18A four
01:21:19A five
