00:05You're watching USA, America's favorite cable network.
00:30And at Manor's Place, she's a primetime queen, she's put her stuff on a TV screen. Her outrageous charm builds
00:42this honey bun that we call Manor's Place.
00:58Here at Manor's Place, she's a perfect host. She rocks the airwaves from coast to coast. Her outrageous charm builds
01:10this honey bun that we call Manor's Place.
01:27Lord, I hate lying here like this. Bored to death. Now I know how Pat Nixon must have felt.
01:35Oh, dear Lord, please deliver Al Pacino to the foot of my bed. Please, I'll do anything.
01:42Hey! Al, is that you?
01:46It's just me.
01:48Oh, I thought you were Al Pacino.
01:51Oh, well, I didn't mean to disappoint you.
01:53Oh, I'll get it.
01:56Hello, Madam's residence.
01:59Oh, yes, just one moment. It's for you.
02:03Hello? Yes, this is Madam.
02:06How are you, Madam? This is Eddie Bob Pate from Dawson, Georgia.
02:10Eddie Bob Pate? Oh, my God, little Eddie Bird.
02:14Yeah, same one. Remember how you used to babysit me?
02:18Oh, Eddie, how could I forget?
02:20I used to charge my girlfriends a nickel to peek in on Eddie Bob when I bathed him.
02:24Oh, he was very mature for a nine-year-old.
02:27Well, listen, I'm in town right now. I wonder if I could stop by for a short visit.
02:31Well, I really don't have time, Eddie Bob.
02:34Oh, now, just for one hour.
02:35Well, you always were a persistent little cuss,
02:38even when you were scrawny as a scarecrow and had those buck teeth of yours.
02:43Well, our people nowadays say I'm a cross between Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds.
02:47Really?
02:49Okay, now, the quickest way to get over here is go down to Hollywood and take a look on Fairfax.
02:54Got that?
02:54Can you make a right on Santa Monica?
02:58Can we please get down to business?
03:02Oh, to hell with work, Bernie. It's time for Richard Slimmons' torso tuna.
03:06We've got to keep our girlish figures limber and luscious.
03:10Oh, Sarah Joy, you're just in time. Richard Slimmons is on.
03:13Oh, good.
03:14Yeah, hit the deck, honey.
03:17Let's go, ladies.
03:19Tuck that tush.
03:21Okay.
03:21One, two, three, four.
03:24One, two, three, four.
03:27Come on, Bernie.
03:28You heard him tuck that tush.
03:30I'm tucking, Sarah Joy.
03:31I'm tucking.
03:33Yes, do yourself a favor.
03:34Think of life and Mickey Rooney as one and the same.
03:37They're both short, but if you know what you're doing,
03:39you can squeeze a lot of pleasure out of them.
03:42Come on, Bernie.
03:43I'm not putting enough into this.
03:45Oh, phew.
03:47Oh.
03:48Oh.
03:49Oh, this is the hardest I've ever worked in bed.
03:52Alone, that is.
03:55What about you, Bernie?
03:57Well, I'd rather not discuss that at this time.
04:00How do you manage it, Bernadette?
04:02Just how long has it been since you've...
04:04Oh, uh, uh.
04:06I've been faithful to my dead Bart since the day he died in 1962.
04:1162.
04:1262?
04:13Why, that's, uh, that's 20 years.
04:15Lord, if I stayed away from men for 20 years, I would be screaming.
04:19Okay, ladies, down on all fours.
04:22Oh, I love it when they talk like that.
04:25Oh, please, I cannot discuss my late husband and do squat thrusts at the same time.
04:31What else are you dying to discuss with me?
04:33Oh, oh, well, uh, Cosmopolitan would like to do a feature article
04:40on all the loves you've ever had in your life.
04:43Well, I'll do it if we can charge them a dollar a man.
04:46Well, I don't think they have that much in their budget.
04:48Well, to hell with them.
04:50Let them call Marie Osmond.
04:52Oh.
04:54Oh.
04:55Oh.
04:59Thank you, boys.
05:01Well, we've been getting lots of calls and letters about Irma Costella.
05:05You remember her.
05:06Irma earned her invisible pig.
05:08Yes, she was a big hit on the show two weeks ago,
05:10and she will be back tomorrow night.
05:13Quack, quack.
05:14Well, my next guest tonight, however, is another favorite of yours.
05:18He hosts his own kiddie show here on the R.A. Randall Network.
05:22Welcome, if you will, with me, please, Mr. Honesty.
05:26Yay, come in, darling.
05:31I'm Mr. Honest.
05:33I don't beat around the bush.
05:35I say things so truthful they will knock you on your tush.
05:40The reason that I do this, that I go for honesty,
05:44is really very simple, kids, my parents lied to me.
05:49Thank you, Mr. Honest.
05:51It's such a catchy little tune.
05:52We have all grown to know and love that.
05:54How are you?
05:55Good to see you.
05:58Well, my God, where did you get that shiner?
06:01I was in a minority neighborhood,
06:04eating in a restaurant which Caucasians think is quaint.
06:08Do you know why Caucasians eat in restaurants
06:11in minority neighborhoods, boys and girls?
06:13It's because they're guilty about all the bad things
06:16they've done to minority members
06:17and want to pay them back by eating in their restaurant.
06:20Well, you still didn't answer my question.
06:22How did you get the black eye?
06:24Madam is impatient with me because this is her show
06:27and she wants to hog all the airtime.
06:30Can you say egomaniac, boys and girls?
06:33I'd like it when you say egomaniac.
06:36Get to the point, Mr. Honest.
06:38Your black eye, how did you get it?
06:41Mr. Honest got his black eye by being patronizing
06:44to the waitress who was a minority group member
06:47and she punched me.
06:48Sounds like you deserved it.
06:50Oh, I did.
06:52Do you know why Caucasians are patronizing
06:54toward minority group members, boys and girls?
06:57It's because we're afraid they'll quit
06:59our favorite professional sports team.
07:01Get the...
07:02Get the...
07:04Oh, good.
07:09That's right.
07:10Boo all you want to.
07:11Sometimes he just goes too far.
07:13Well, that's the show for tonight.
07:15And that's the truth.
07:27What are you doing at my desk, little boy?
07:30Working.
07:32Say hello to him, Brewster.
07:36You don't really have to say hello.
07:38He's dead.
07:39What is that creature doing on my desk?
07:43Nothing.
07:43I told you, he's dead.
07:45You're a very sick little boy.
07:49Get all of this stuff off of my desk right away.
07:52Do you hear me?
07:53And Pinky, please, please,
07:56disinfect this desk as soon as he's finished.
08:02Buzzy, I know stuffing animals is your hobby,
08:05but you have to do it there.
08:06You have a perfectly adequate lab
08:08in your basement at home.
08:11Yeah, but the vibes are better here.
08:17Bernadette!
08:17Yes?
08:18Please bring me that essence of orgy
08:20bath oil I asked for.
08:22Yeah, I'm feeling real dewy.
08:27Essence of orgy?
08:28Isn't she a little old for that kind of stuff?
08:33Pinky, Auntie Madam told me to tell you
08:35that she's expecting a guest this evening
08:36and she would like you to give her a ring
08:38when he gets here.
08:39Yeah.
08:40A ring.
08:42I should have given her a ring 25 years ago.
08:45You almost did.
08:47What?
08:49You were engaged to be married in 1957.
08:53How did you know that?
08:54I know everything about Madam's life.
08:56I'm obsessed with her, too.
08:58I'm not obsessed with her.
09:01It's just that, well, we used to be very...
09:04Go on.
09:05Very close.
09:07You're jealous of that guy
09:08who's coming over today, aren't you?
09:10No.
09:10Yes.
09:11No, I'm not.
09:12Yes, you are.
09:15Yes, I am.
09:16But don't you say a word about that.
09:25Well, howdy, brother.
09:26I'm Eddie Bob Tate.
09:28And you are?
09:29Pinkerton, sir.
09:30I'm the butler of the residence.
09:32Please come in.
09:32Oh, butler.
09:33Uh, well, Madam sure has gone and done herself well
09:36since she left old Nelson.
09:38Well, would you look at this.
09:40Why, it looks like one of those places you see in picture books
09:43in the homes of all the movie stars.
09:45Oh, this is Buzzy St. James, one of Madam's neighbors.
09:49Hello, son.
09:50Say, what you got in that box there, you little toy soldiers?
09:52No.
09:53A dead squirrel and formaldehyde.
09:56Now, listen, Pinky, I gotta split.
09:58But guys in polyester suits make me nervous.
10:04Please excuse me.
10:11Madam, Mr. Pate is here.
10:16No, Madam, uh, he doesn't show any outward signs of any heart condition.
10:22Yes, Madam.
10:23Uh, right away.
10:26Mr. Pate, Madam would like you to join her in her bedroom.
10:31That's upstairs, down the hall, last door on the right.
10:34The one with the sign that says, please disturb.
10:37Why, thank you very much.
10:45Oh.
10:46How'd you do?
10:51I think I know that guy.
10:54I saw him on TV back home in Georgia.
10:56He's, he's one of those, oh, you know,
10:58what do you call those guys who, uh,
11:00whack people on the forehead in order to cure them of something?
11:03You mean an evangelist?
11:04Yeah, that's it.
11:05He, he was always saying,
11:06Eddie, Bob, Pate, and ain't life great.
11:10Oh, my.
11:11An evangelist?
11:12In Madam's bedroom?
11:14Oh, boy.
11:16I better make myself a drink.
11:21Oh, every time I feel the spirit
11:24moving in my heart,
11:26I will pray.
11:27Hey, hey, oh, every time I feel the spirit
11:30moving in my heart,
11:32I will pray.
11:33Come here, Eddie, Bob!
11:38Madam?
11:40I'm behind the screen, darling.
11:42You know, all us stars get dressed behind one,
11:45except Shelly Winters.
11:46I hear she gets dressed in front of hers.
11:50Well,
11:52I sure am very anxious to see you
11:54after all these years.
11:59Oh, my, sounds like you really are anxious.
12:02Well, don't start without me.
12:04I'm just sniffing into something more
12:07temporary.
12:08Well, now, don't put it public to me.
12:10I'm sure anything you wear would be perfectly...
12:12Well, hello, Eddie Bob Pate.
12:16Lord, up to now, I thank you for my perfect eyesight.
12:19Oh, stop mumming to yourself and kiss a girl.
12:24Okay, now you kissed a girl.
12:26Now I want you to kiss a woman.
12:28Madam, I should know that I am a married man.
12:31Well, my condolences.
12:32We all make mistakes.
12:33And you should know that I'm a man of God.
12:36A man of God?
12:37Well, lucky for both of us,
12:39I had disc brakes put on my thongs.
12:42Well, maybe you didn't know
12:44that I'm a religious woman myself.
12:46Yes, I've always believed in God.
12:49Just in case.
12:50Come, come, Eddie.
12:52Did you mistake one of those baths
12:53I used to give you for a baptism?
12:55No, madam.
12:56But even back then,
12:57I knew you were on the wrong road.
13:00And so I told myself then,
13:01I said, Eddie Bob,
13:02when you grow up,
13:03you've got to help that girl somehow.
13:06Oh, and here you are,
13:07looking like a coconut cream pie
13:09in the window of a closed bakery.
13:11Now, madam,
13:12I know how many times you've been married.
13:14Oh, glad to hear
13:15they sell calculators down south.
13:17And I've heard all about your faith.
13:19And through them all,
13:20I never once said the word can't.
13:22And I know you have
13:23a sinful amount of money.
13:25And so I must ask you, madam.
13:27What?
13:27Do you want to be saved?
13:30Saved?
13:30Honey, I'd rather be used.
13:32You're not looking at a discount coupon.
13:33Well, then you must allow me
13:35to lay my hands upon your body, madam.
13:37Oh, a healing.
13:38I've heard all about you.
13:39I've heard you're terrific.
13:41Yes, they said you once
13:42cast a demon out of a man
13:43that looked altogether
13:44to the world like a frog.
13:45It rustled the leaves on the trees,
13:47thrown a dog out the window,
13:48and flushed every toilet
13:49in the basement
13:50of the last Baptist church.
13:51Oh, come to think of it,
13:54I did wake up with a kink
13:55in my neck this morning.
13:56Must have fallen asleep
13:57in a strange position.
13:58Well, then you must allow me
14:00to lay my hands
14:01upon your body, madam.
14:02Oh, you got it, honey.
14:04Now, do you feel the heat
14:06running through your mother?
14:08Oh, like a pickpocket
14:09through downtown Tallahassee,
14:11anybody?
14:12Say hallelujah.
14:13Oh, hallelujah.
14:14No, say hallelujah.
14:15Hallelujah.
14:16Oh, hallelujah.
14:17Hallelujah.
14:19Hallelujah.
14:20Oh, both of us?
14:21Well, that's a new one on me.
14:22Did you bring the gold knee pads?
14:34That fella in there with madam,
14:35he's kind of good looking, isn't he?
14:38So what?
14:39So?
14:41Well, he's already made a name
14:42for himself.
14:44What have I done?
14:45I'm a butler.
14:46Well, butlers are important.
14:48Didn't you see the movie Arthur?
14:50Now, Arthur had billions
14:51and billions of dollars,
14:53but the person he loved most
14:54in the whole world
14:55was a butler.
14:56Sarah Joy, that was a movie.
14:58In real life,
15:00Eddie Bob Pate
15:00is a symphony
15:01and I'm a kazoo.
15:05Oh, the pinky.
15:07It's not how important you are,
15:08it's what kind of man you are.
15:10Yeah, well,
15:11I'm the kind of man
15:11that rides on a woman's coattails.
15:14Look, you've just got
15:15to think positive
15:16and everything will come your way.
15:18I heard Eddie Bob Pate
15:19say that on TV.
15:22What have you got
15:23in that box anyway?
15:24My goodness,
15:26you bring your own
15:26little window on the world.
15:28Say hallelujah.
15:29Hallelujah.
15:30Rock of ages,
15:33cleft for me.
15:35Let me hide my faith in thee.
15:39Madam, why aren't you singing?
15:41Well, Eddie,
15:42it's not my kind of song.
15:44Don't you know
15:44the lady is a tramp?
15:45Yes, madam,
15:46that's why I'm here.
15:47And I want you
15:48to be born again.
15:49Oh, forget it, Eddie.
15:50It would kill my image.
15:52Besides,
15:52I read the Bible
15:53every morning.
15:54Really?
15:55Yes.
15:56I'm still looking
15:57for loopholes.
16:00I think you're
16:01a wonderful man
16:02and you should
16:02be proud of yourself.
16:04Now,
16:05I want you to go upstairs
16:06and get yourself
16:07a good night's sleep.
16:08And when you wake up
16:09in the morning,
16:10you'll feel all better.
16:11Okay?
16:11No, I want to sit here
16:13and be miserable.
16:15Okay,
16:16suit yourself.
16:17Good night.
16:20Good night.
16:45I better get myself
16:46a better hiding place
16:47for my diary.
16:50Lord,
16:51forgive me
16:51for failing this woman.
16:54Oh, Eddie,
16:55for gosh sakes,
16:56nonsense.
16:57You didn't fail me.
16:58You didn't even
16:59try to please me.
17:00Oh, yes, I did.
17:01I did.
17:02Maybe not in your way,
17:04maybe,
17:04but the right way.
17:05Oh,
17:06if I could just
17:06convince you.
17:07Oh, come on.
17:08Lighten up, Bobby.
17:10Hey,
17:11how would you like me
17:12to give you
17:13one last bath?
17:14Four times, say?
17:16What, madam?
17:18I got Mr. Bubba Lola.
17:19Come on.
17:20Oh, don't be silly.
17:21Oh, come on.

17:30her final divorce decree.
17:32Her marriage
17:33to Jocko Van Pelt
