00:06Every day
00:30Who you are, who you are, depends on what you do. What you do is mostly up to you. It's
00:41true, you can make a better you.
00:46Every day is a new world that I'm eager to explore. Every day, opportunity knocks at my door. Every day,
00:57I'm loving, living more and more and more.
01:01And every day is better than... Keep on saying, yes I can. And every day is better than before.
01:13Keep on saying, yes I can.
01:48I think I've bet my wonton.
01:52What are you doing up in the middle of the night anyway?
01:56Oh, well, a lot of time sleeping.
01:58I'm worried about the business.
02:01Oh, come on now.
02:03I guess we have been losing some customers since hardware.
02:07Heaven opened up their new branch.
02:11Is that what's keeping you up?
02:13No, no, no, no.
02:15I was worried somebody would finish my broccoli and goat cheese casserole.
02:21Trust me.
02:23It would have stayed there all winter.
02:30You know, Curtis,
02:32you really don't have to worry.
02:34Hey, M&B hardware can stand a little competition,
02:39even from a big chain.
02:41You really think so?
02:42Absolutely.
02:43And always remember, we're in this together.
02:45You have got me for a business partner.
02:48Oh, Lord.
02:54Hi, we didn't know anybody else was up.
03:00Oh, what are you doing up, son?
03:02Oh, I'm too worried to sleep.
03:04And I can't sleep because he can't sleep.
03:07So what are you worried about, Ted?
03:09Well, there are 40,000 first-year law students in the United States,
03:13and we are all graduating at the same time.
03:15Now, how am I ever going to find a job?
03:17I read in the paper that 72% of all law students flunk the bar exams.
03:27Oh, that's good.
03:28Right.
03:28No, wait a minute.
03:29That's bad.
03:30What if I flunk?
03:31No way.
03:33You are the smartest man in the whole McGibbon family.
03:37Hmm.
03:40What's going on?
03:41Becky, what are you doing up?
03:43I can't sleep.
03:44Oh, what's the matter, sweetheart?
03:46Patty and I had a fight.
03:48I'm not going to speak to her for 100 million years.
03:50Well, by that time, you'll have a lot to catch up on.
03:54Trust me, Becky, you and Patty will make up.
03:57You sure?
03:58Positive.
03:59Best friends fight all the time.
04:02Boy, you and Grandpa must really be best friends.
04:10Mm-hmm.
04:11Ha, ha, ha, ha.
04:17Hey, it's party time!
04:21Kevin, you too?
04:23It's 1.30 in the morning.
04:25I can't sleep.
04:26So, what are you worried about?
04:29I'm worried my Annie Bites will be canceled before I'm old enough to watch it.
04:34Well, as long as we're all up, let's eat.
04:37Oh, thank you.
04:39All right.
04:40Oh, this looks good.
04:42Mm.
04:44Mm, what is it?
04:46My science project.
04:47I'm learning to grow mold.
04:59Things are sure slow around here.
05:03Yeah.
05:04Our business died and went to hardware heaven.
05:12Can I help you, madam?
05:15Welcome to M&B, home of all your hardware needs.
05:18Today, we have a special, a two-for-one sale.
05:21You buy any two items, and I, for one, will be thrilled.
05:26Two-for-one thrilled, Mrs. B.
05:31Uh, what can I do for you, madam?
05:34I'd, uh, I'd like a fly swatter.
05:36One fly swatter coming right up.
05:40There you are.
05:41How much is that?
05:42A dollar sixty-five.
05:44Oh, I can get that at hardware heaven for 99 cents.
05:47Oh, well, maybe so.
05:49But will they take the time to show you how to use it?
05:56I, I, I don't think so.
05:58No, of course not.
06:02Oh, you're in luck.
06:03There's our demonstration fly now.
06:08Demonstration fly?
06:09Yes, yes, he just works for us.
06:12Yes.
06:14Yes.
06:15Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.
06:17Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.
06:40Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.
06:42Uh-huh.
06:50I'm going to hardware heaven.
07:00Attention, everyone.
07:02Our troubles are over.
07:05I have in this box a sure-fire sales promotion.
07:09I knew you wouldn't let us down, Curtis.
07:12What brilliant idea have you come up with?
07:15Promotional potholders.
07:16There we are, one side our name on the other
07:19when your home repair problem is too hot to handle.
07:25I, um, I hate to burst your bubble, Curtis,
07:29but I haven't seen promotional potholders
07:32since Wendell Wilkie ran for president.
07:36I like Wilkie.
07:39Whoop, whoop, whoop.
07:40Customer at 4 o'clock.
07:41Hey, that looks like, uh, Fred Dunlap, the TV star.
07:45Oh, yeah.
07:46Good morning, everybody.
07:47May I help you, Mr. Dunlap?
07:49Freeze!
07:52I will take care of Mr. Dunlap.
07:55Good morning, sir.
07:56What can I do for you today?
07:58Well, sir, uh, I have a problem with my dish spritzer.
08:01You see, there's a kink in the whatchamacallit,
08:02and every time I turn it on,
08:03instead of spritzing out the front,
08:04it sort of goes like, fff, fff, fff, out the side.
08:06You know what I mean?
08:10Uh...
08:11Uh, allow me.
08:13Uh, allow me.
08:15Does it go, fff, fff, fff, fff,
08:17or is it spritzing and, fff, fff, fff, fff,
08:19at the same time?
08:22Well, no, it's spritzing and going, fff, fff, fff, fff,
08:24fffing, yes.
08:24Oh, well, you're lucky you've got a little spritz left.

13:18Yeah.
13:26I never felt so relaxed in my life.
13:34Lucille, your fate is sealed.
13:37You are not going on television with me.
13:45Well, you tried, Mom.
13:47Yeah.
13:56A lot of good it did me.
13:58A lot of good it did me.
13:59Mom, can I get you anything?
14:01You want a cup of herb tea or something?
14:04Herb who?
14:06Tea.
14:08No, thank you.
14:11All right.
14:12I'll just sit here all by myself.
14:18Nobody needs me.
14:20Nobody wants me.
14:21Nobody's listening.
14:26They're all out of pathetic range.
14:30Becky!
14:31No!
14:32Come on, Becky.
14:34Please!
14:35Forget it.
14:35No way.
14:36Kevin?
14:37Oh, boy.
14:38Oh, boy.
14:39Oh, boy.
14:44What's the matter?
14:47Oh, nothing.
14:49Oh!
14:54What's the matter with you?
14:57Oh, nothing.
14:59Oh!
15:02Oh, come on, Kevin.
15:04Obviously, something's wrong.
15:07Becky and Patty won't let me play with them.
15:11Oh, why won't you let Kevin play with you?
15:14Because he doesn't know how to play kids trivia.
15:17He just gets in the way and makes a mess.
15:19Oh, now, darling, darling.
15:23Kevin needs an older sister to teach him things.
15:26Just because he can't do something,
15:28that doesn't mean that you're going to exclude him.
15:32But you said Grandma can't be on TV with you
15:35because she doesn't know anything about home repairs.
15:37And she'll make a mess.
15:42Oh, well, yeah.
15:44Oh, well, that has nothing to do with what, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, so?
15:52So, you're not being fair either, are you?
15:56Answer the girl.
15:59Uh, well, uh, well, no, I'm, I'm not being fair either.
16:05Okay, Kevin, you can play with us.
16:07Yippee!
16:09Well?
16:14All right, Lucille.
16:16You can be on television with me.
16:20Yay!
16:21Way to go, Grandma!
16:23Yeah, way to go, Kevin.
16:25Yeah, ha, ha, ha!
16:36Here you go, Mom.
16:38Thank you, dear.
16:39Is that what you're going to fix on television today, Grandpa?
16:43Yes, indeed, Becky.
16:45That's the one.
16:46Grandpa gave your dad and me that as a wedding gift.
16:49Ha, ha, ha.
16:50And they got married anyway.
16:55Grandma?
16:56Hmm?
16:56When you go on television today,
16:58will you say hello to Kevin and me?
17:00Yeah!
17:02Ha, I'd love to, but I think that's against the rules.
17:05Okay.
17:06I understand.
17:07I'll tell you what.
17:08Why don't we make up a secret signal that means hello?
17:10That way I can say hello to you and Kevin
17:12and nobody else in the whole world will know.
17:15I got it.
17:16Do this, Grandma.
17:27Kids.
17:30Well, now, that's really a good idea, Kevin,
17:32but maybe we should try something that's a little more secret.
17:35Why don't we do what Carol Burnett does
17:37when she says hello to her grandmother?
17:39She just does this.
17:41She pulls on her hand.
17:41Wow, that's awesome.
17:43Awesome.
17:44Yeah.
17:46Okay, don't forget now.
17:47That's what I'll be doing for you.
17:48Hey, it's getting late.
17:49Shouldn't you guys be going?
17:51Yeah.
17:51Oh, yeah, showtime.
17:54Showtime.
17:56Don't forget to smile, Dad.
17:57Oh, no, no, I won't.
17:59I'll be looking bright and chipper.
18:01Hey, hey, hey, you're forgetting your tools and everything.
18:04I am Mr. Fix-It.
18:06You are the assistant.
18:14All right, here we go.
18:15In five, four, three, two.
18:20Okay, welcome back to Wake Up Pasadena.
18:24Now, today, our first guest is going to come out,
18:26and he's going to tell us how to repair things ourselves
18:28and save ourselves a bundle.
18:31You'll see.
18:32Welcome, please, Mr. Fix-It.
18:43Well, hi there, Mr. Fix-It.
18:45Hello, Ferd.
18:46Fred.
18:46Fred?
18:53And, uh, is this the lovely Mrs. Fix-It?
18:56Actually, I'm his business partner, Lucy Barker.
18:59I'm the bee in M&B Hardware.
19:01That's M&B Hardware, 7207 Hill Street, Pasadena, California, 911...
19:07Well, we get the idea, Mrs. Barker.
19:09Zero six.
19:13Well, what are you going to show us today, Mr. Fix-It?
19:16With a few simple repairs, this lamp could easily be put into working order.
19:22I see.
19:23Now, what do we have to do to it?
19:25Oh, well, we have to replace the broken switch
19:29and glue this part back onto the lamp itself.
19:38All you need are a few simple tools.
19:41First, a screwdriver.
19:43Uh, the screwdriver.
19:47And then, of course, a new switch.
19:49The new switch.
19:54And, finally, the strongest adhesive on the market, a wacky glue.
20:00The wacky glue.
20:04This is all very interesting, but we're running a little late.
20:07Do you think we could move it along?
20:08Oh, yes.
20:08You go on to the next step, Mr. Fix-It.
20:10Your trusty assistant will fix...
20:12I'll fix the switch.
20:13Oh.
20:13Oh.
20:14Oh.
20:15All right.
20:15Now, we'll, uh, we'll check the plug to see if there are any frayed wires.
20:20Uh, no frayed wires on that.
20:23This is fine.
20:23Now, it is time to repair the lamp itself.
20:28If my assistant would apply, uh, the wacky glue.
20:33Right.
20:33Yes.
20:34Uh, and for proper adhesion, it is important to put glue on both pieces.
20:41Right, right, right.
20:42Uh, but please, be conservative.
20:46Yes, sir.
20:46You may not believe this, but the most common mistake people
20:50make is to use too much glue.
20:53Yeah, that's right.
20:54And that is sloppy, sloppy, sloppy.
20:59Yes, sir.
21:00Don't be sloppy.
21:00So, Mrs. Barker, why don't you, uh, tell us a little bit about yourself?
21:04Oh, boy, I, uh, I have a lovely daughter, Margo, and a lovely son-in-law, Ted, and two lovely
21:12grandchildren, Becky and Kevin.
21:14Oh, boy.
21:16Hi, this is me.
21:22Hi, this is me.
21:34Well, Mr. Fix-It, that, that looks pretty good, I must say.
21:37Oh, yes, indeed, yes.
21:39The instant wacky glue makes contact, it's impossible to pry it loose.
21:47Well, that looks as good as new.
21:49Which wasn't too good to begin with.
21:59What are you doing?
22:01I'm doing my fingers to my ear.
22:04Why?
22:08I put too much on, and I just wiped it off like that.
22:12Oh, all right.
22:13Well, let me help you.
22:16Ow!
22:17Let go.
22:18Can't let go.
22:20I'm stuck, too.
22:23Well, Mr. Fix-It, I want to thank you very much for being here today.
22:27This was a great pleasure, it really was.
22:29And you, too, Mrs. Barker.
22:30This was just wonderful, okay?
22:36Well, what do you know?
22:38It looks like we're stuck.
22:40Yeah, I guess that's why they call it wacky glue, huh, friend?
22:43Oh, yeah, yeah.
22:45Here, here, let me give you a hand here.
22:48Let's get that.
22:50Uh-oh.
22:51I'll tell you what, let's do.
22:52Why don't we just move over to the couch, and maybe we can introduce our next segment.
22:57Good idea.
22:58Now, now, now, now, now, now, wait, wait, wait, wait a second.
23:02We didn't show them that the lamp works.
23:04No, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
23:06This segment is over.
23:09Not yet it isn't.
23:13Now, this is important.
23:14I want everyone to know that at M&B Hardware, the job gets done.
23:20Uh, plug in the lamp, Mr. Fix-It.
23:25Oh, here we are.
23:28Here we are.
23:30Here we are.
23:45Now, uh, don't, don't, don't forget, folks.
23:49If this happens to you, if this happens to you, you can get new fuses at M&B Hardware,
23:547207 Hill Street, Pasadena, California, 91106.
24:30Now, uh, don't forget, folks.
