0:01:08 > 0:01:13After 100,000 miles, you'll find it'll be just as good as new.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16- You like it? - I love it.
0:01:16 > 0:01:21- I'll pay on delivery. This is Corby Lane.- Glad to know you.
0:01:21 > 0:01:27- I'm John Bentley, President of the Lane Oil Corporation. - Plummer's my name.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- When Miss Lane...- One thing. - What's that?
0:01:30 > 0:01:35Could I have the steering wheel on the other side?
0:01:35 > 0:01:40I've been in England for a while and I'm used to the wheel over here.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43You're in America, we have left-hand drive.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47- In England they drive on the left. - Left, right, I don't know.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Excuse me.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Sit behind the wheel? Get a feel.
0:01:52 > 0:01:53- <- Mr Plummer?
0:01:53 > 0:01:57- I'll be back in a minute.- Get in.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- What's this for?- I don't know.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Cigarette lighter.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09- These are the lights. - Corby, you're making a mistake.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13- You don't want me to buy the car? - I don't care if you buy 12.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17But this idea of driving down there and spreading money around,
0:02:17 > 0:02:19you'll will only spread inflation.
0:02:19 > 0:02:24- And you don't even know the people. - I do. There's Dr Sellers and...
0:02:24 > 0:02:26And who?
0:02:26 > 0:02:28I'll find out the others from him.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Just think...
0:02:30 > 0:02:34They took up a collection and sent me to St Louis for the operation.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36I HAVE to pay them back.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39You don't just pay people.
0:02:39 > 0:02:44You go and spread money around, they'll put you in an asylum.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49Maybe I won't give them any money or let them know who I am.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52Maybe I'll see what they want first.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55CAR HORN BEEPS
0:02:55 > 0:03:00Give them a library, or a church or a statue of George Washington,
0:03:00 > 0:03:03but don't go down there and meddle!
0:03:03 > 0:03:07Look, when I have an obligation I fulfil it.
0:03:07 > 0:03:12- When I start to do a thing, I do it.- Even as a child...
0:03:12 > 0:03:17you were a meddler and I always end up with a headache!
0:03:40 > 0:03:43< Lady! The sign says, "No parking."
0:03:50 > 0:03:55- Can you help? I'm looking for Progress.- It passed this town by.
0:03:55 > 0:04:01It's a home-grown joke. We've used it for 50 years. This is Progress.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04- What can I do?- I'm looking for Dr Robert Sellers.
0:04:04 > 0:04:10- Back behind you. Two-storey house with a picket fence.- Thank you.
0:04:10 > 0:04:15- That's one of 'em new ones.- I think so.- What mileage are you getting?
0:04:15 > 0:04:17I just fill it up when it's empty.
0:04:17 > 0:04:23- Looks like last year's.- No, got a new piece of chrome. Very nice.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26I'd hit it lickety-split for California.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- You like it?- It'll do.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33- How long have you lived here? - All my life.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- How old are you?- 39.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38How old are you?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41There was a reason for asking.
0:04:41 > 0:04:46- I turn to the left? - Yeah, first left.- Thank you.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59- Who do you suppose she is? - I don't know.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02- Talks funny.- Yeah.
0:05:02 > 0:05:07I was in a television store and saw a movie where they talk like her.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10A fella from Boston talked like her.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14Kinda fresh of her asking how old I am.
0:05:14 > 0:05:20Could be one of those survey people doing a job on rural America. >
0:05:21 > 0:05:27She ain't getting cooperation from me. I'm tired of talking like a hick when one of them comes to town.
0:05:27 > 0:05:32Probably one of Doc's girlfriends. He's got them all over the country.
0:06:09 > 0:06:16I ain't complaining about the waste of time, I haven't got much to do, but three years is three years.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20Maybe we put too much importance on one fish.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- WE put?- YOU put.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26All right, you want to quit, Digger?
0:06:26 > 0:06:32I'm with you, Doc. But, I was thinking, if we switch to worms...
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Worms?!- Yeah, worms.
0:06:35 > 0:06:40Digger...you know what I plan to do with Old Hercules when I catch him?
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Stuff him?
0:06:43 > 0:06:49- You think I could live with him year after year and not look him in the eye?- Worms aren't cheating.
0:06:49 > 0:06:54- Know a trout-man who uses them? - If they got hungry.- I'm not hungry.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58When we catch him we'll have nothing to look forward to.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01- Yeah, until we do...- Look, Doc.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19You got him, Doc. Take it easy.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Atta boy.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Play him, Doc.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37SIREN
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Barbara Jordan's baby's due, ain't it? You got it!
0:07:54 > 0:07:59CONTINUOUS SIREN
0:08:12 > 0:08:19That girl looked as healthy as a horse, can't tell a lot about women these days!
0:08:31 > 0:08:33He's slowing up.
0:08:33 > 0:08:3680 seconds slower than when Ed broke his leg.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Waaah!
0:08:58 > 0:09:04- What's the matter?- I don't know. Do you want to see Dr Sellers too?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07- Why did you push this? - You're out of breath.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- SIREN STOPS - What did you want?
0:09:10 > 0:09:13I wanted to see Dr Sellers.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19- The button says emergency, what's the emergency?- None at all.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22I just wanted a visit with Dr Sellers.
0:09:22 > 0:09:30- Unless you're about to give birth, don't push that button.- Who do you think you are, the Lord Mayor?
0:09:30 > 0:09:34- I'm Dr Sellers. - If you'll tell me where I can...
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Dr Sellers?- Yes.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43- Dr Robert Sellers?- Yes, Ma'am.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45I expected a much older man.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50Why did you expect a much older man?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Sellers sounds like an old man.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58Besides, your house is old.
0:09:59 > 0:10:05- Could you have had a father?- As a matter of fact, I did(!) I did.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09- Was his name Dr Robert Sellers too? - It was.
0:10:09 > 0:10:14- Well, that explains everything. - It certainly does.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17- May we go inside?- Of course.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22Doc? What's the matter with her?
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Oh!
0:10:29 > 0:10:33- Sit down, Miss, er, Mrs...- Miss.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- Miss, er...?- Miss Johnson.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Miss Johnson, excuse me.
0:10:58 > 0:11:05- You ever been examined before, by a physician? - I didn't come here to be examined.
0:11:06 > 0:11:11Oh. Well, there's still some things I'd like to know about you.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Now, how old are you, Miss, er, Johnson?
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- Guess.- 18?
0:11:25 > 0:11:2721.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31I was hoping you'd be 21. Come over and sit down.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39- I must say, I like this town. - I'm glad you do.
0:11:39 > 0:11:47- What's the trouble?- At the general store they said this was where Dr Sellers lived, so I came to see you.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51- You were just driving through? - That's right.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53- On your way to...?- California.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56Aren't you off the beaten track?
0:11:56 > 0:12:01I never travel the main highway. I prefer country roads.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I see.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Well, let's get back to why you came to see me.
0:12:10 > 0:12:15Well, I wanted some advice, but I expected a much older man.
0:12:15 > 0:12:21- A younger man wouldn't give the same advice?- That's right.- Could be.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Now that we're acquainted...
0:12:25 > 0:12:28What would you do if someone came into your office
0:12:28 > 0:12:30and handed you some money?
0:12:32 > 0:12:35- How much money?- 5,000.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39- What for?- Just handed it to you out of the blue sky.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45First, I'd give whoever it was a sedative,
0:12:45 > 0:12:51and there's a place here that's very large and homey. Only thing is you can't get out.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55I see.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59You weren't thinking of handing me 5,000, were you?
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- Don't be silly. Do you think I'm mad?- Of course not.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07Thank you, Doctor. I have to go.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11- California?- No, I'm staying here for a few days. Didn't I tell you?- No.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Yes, I must say, I like this town.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Is there a hotel that I could...?
0:13:17 > 0:13:22There's a boarding house. That's the only place to stay in town.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27- What will you do to kill time?- Get to know the people, as I told you.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- I must say... - Sure do like this town.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55BELL RINGS
0:13:57 > 0:14:00- Hello, Doc.- Hello, Sally.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05- Aren't you going to ask me in? - Sure, come on in, Sally.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- I brought more coleslaw.- Thanks.
0:14:12 > 0:14:17- Who was that?- Her name's Johnson. - What's wrong with her?- I don't know.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22- Did you examine her?- No. - You didn't?- Um-umm.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28- She's very pretty, isn't she?- Yeah.
0:14:28 > 0:14:32CAR HORN BEEPS
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Excuse me.
0:14:53 > 0:14:58- You like to press buttons and blow horns.- I wanted a bell boy.
0:14:58 > 0:15:03- There's no bell boy. This is a boarding house.- Oh.- I'll help.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20Be careful of that one. That's got the money in it.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Yeah, it feels like money(!)
0:15:33 > 0:15:36There's some more in the back.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40Hey, Digger, give me a hand, will you?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Hey, Doc. Need any help?
0:15:44 > 0:15:49- Wouldn't want you to strain yourself(!)- Why didn't you ask me?
0:16:05 > 0:16:09- What's your first name? - Corby. C-O-R-B-Y.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13- How do you spell Johnson? - J-O-H-N-S-O-N.
0:16:25 > 0:16:31Miss McMurty, this is Miss Johnson. She wants to stay for a while. She likes this town.
0:16:31 > 0:16:36How do you do? I'll take those. I'll show you your room.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Come with me.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41- Thank you very much.- What's that?
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- Thank you for your help.- Any time.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46- I'll see you.- Tonight.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50- Tonight?- I'll be seeing you.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51Six o'clock.
0:16:54 > 0:16:55Six o'clock.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02HE WHISTLES
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Hey, Digger.
0:17:10 > 0:17:16- That new patient of Doc's, what's the matter with her? - Loose marbles.- What?
0:17:16 > 0:17:23I can't tell you more, it ain't ethical to reveal the diagnosis of a patient's illness.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Huh?
0:17:26 > 0:17:30This is a concoction of Harley's. Only he knows the ingredients.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35- Oh, now, Doc.- To Harley.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38The next one's on the house.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Works every time!
0:17:40 > 0:17:43- By the way, Doctor...- Doc.
0:17:43 > 0:17:48Doc. Were you engaged in some sort of clinical...?
0:17:48 > 0:17:51What were you doing when I pressed the button?
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Fishing.- I thought it was important.
0:17:54 > 0:17:59Corby, I had the biggest fish in Arkansas on that line.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02- That's different.- It is.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06- To the biggest fish in Arkansas. - Old Hercules.
0:18:06 > 0:18:11- Hercules?- That's what I call this particular fish. To Old Hercules.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12To him.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Complements of Harley's Tavern.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Well, here's to Harley's Tavern.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26You're English, aren't you?
0:18:26 > 0:18:29- I'm just like you. - But your speech is so perfect.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32I was educated in England.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35My father died.
0:18:36 > 0:18:42He was a good man. Raised me from when I was a little girl to when I was ten.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45My mother died when I was a baby.
0:18:45 > 0:18:51So, I was sent to my aunt in England, where I went to school,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54except when I went to Switzerland.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58- What did you do in Switzerland? - I went to school.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Oh.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04- What was your aunt's name? - Aunt Gertrude.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Her last name.- Same as my father's.
0:19:08 > 0:19:13- She was my father's sister. - And your father's name?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16My father's name was...
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Hey!
0:19:18 > 0:19:23My father's name was Johnson. Just like me.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29- Er, Harley.- Yeah, Doc? - Fix us up a couple more.- Right.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35- You're not trying to pump me, are you, Doc?- No...
0:19:35 > 0:19:37That's what I thought.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Do I look kind of blurry to you?
0:19:45 > 0:19:46Yeah.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Well, don't let it worry you.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52You look kind of blurry to me.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55I can feel it now, a bit.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58When did you arrive in this country?
0:19:58 > 0:20:02- Five weeks ago.- To see the country?
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Just came back to see the country.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06SHE HICCUPS
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Now, I'll...
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- ask you some questions.- OK.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16What makes you so nosey?
0:20:16 > 0:20:21- Dick Jordan called. He wants you to come over right away.- OK.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24- Anything serious? - A new baby is expected.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Here's to the new baby.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Come on, let's go.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37You better drop me at the boarding house.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Takes a long time to have a baby.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41No, you'd better come with me.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49BABY CRIES
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Oh, hooray.
0:20:58 > 0:21:03- All over?- You have met the enemy and he is yours!
0:21:03 > 0:21:07- What is it?- It's no longer an "it", it's a "she".
0:21:07 > 0:21:11- Where's Dick?- In the kitchen oiling up his daughter.
0:21:11 > 0:21:15They seem to be getting along pretty well.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19- He'll probably use his gun on her. - Don't talk, just rest.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24I'll try to answer your questions.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28The baby's perfect in every respect.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Looks just like Dick and I doubt you had anything to do with it.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Weighs six pounds two ounces,
0:21:33 > 0:21:38screams like a banshee and has a glint in her blue eyes that promises trouble for the boys round here.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Can I see her?
0:21:43 > 0:21:47Strange request. I'll see what I can do(!)
0:21:47 > 0:21:50BABY CRIES
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Dick!
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Hey, Dick.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Dick, you're on.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Put her down. She won't break.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Hi.
0:22:26 > 0:22:31- Was it too rough?- I could have done it with my eyes closed.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Do you like her?
0:22:34 > 0:22:37- I think she'll do.- Me too.
0:22:37 > 0:22:42Try her for a week, if she doesn't satisfy you, trade her in for a boy.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Now she's oiled, what do we do next?
0:22:46 > 0:22:51The general idea is to feed her when she's hungry, then she grows.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55I'll drop round some books on child psychology to confuse you.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Kiss your wife and let her rest.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01She's done more work today than you'll do in your life.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08- Thanks.- You're welcome.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29- She hasn't moved an inch. - Better make her some coffee.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33I don't intend to let anything past my throat again.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36I know the feeling, I had my bachelor dinner at Harley's.
0:23:36 > 0:23:41I'm sorry, very ashamed - what must your wife think?
0:23:41 > 0:23:45Women aren't much help at a time like this.
0:23:45 > 0:23:50You'd better have some food. I ordered some steaks at Harley's.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53- Was it a boy or a girl?- A girl.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57- Oh, the poor thing. - Maybe a drink might help.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05You'll feel better after you've eaten.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08- How much do I owe you?- 75 bucks.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12Oh, a couple of pigs. I'm up to my attic in chickens.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Good night.
0:24:25 > 0:24:29HOOVER WHIRS LOUDLY
0:24:47 > 0:24:51HOOVERING STOPS
0:24:51 > 0:24:54- Morning, honey.- Good morning.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- Breakfast?- Just coffee. Black.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01- Can I have it outside? - Sure. Get some fresh air.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04I'll bring it out.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34- Seen the morning paper?- No, thanks.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Tax is going up.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Whole country's going to pieces.
0:25:39 > 0:25:46Ever since I've been able to read a paper, seems the country is going to pieces. But it's still here.
0:25:52 > 0:25:57- You was out with Doc last night? - Out is right.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01- Harley told me when he delivered my stuff.- What stuff?
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Harley makes a delivery to me every morning.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09You see, I've got a drinking problem.
0:26:09 > 0:26:14You've got more than a problem if you drink that stuff of Harley's.
0:26:14 > 0:26:20It's pretty bad to an outlander like you, but to me it's just right.
0:26:22 > 0:26:29- Just right?- If it's any better you couldn't afford it, any worse you couldn't drink it, so just right.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31You mind?
0:26:32 > 0:26:34Go ahead.
0:26:40 > 0:26:41Yep!
0:26:43 > 0:26:45It's a terrible affliction.
0:26:45 > 0:26:50An article the other day said what I had was a "compulsion."
0:26:50 > 0:26:55- Oh?- Yeah, it said the cause of my drinking was "obscure".
0:26:55 > 0:27:02- I don't know anything about your problem, Mr... - Chalmers, Odie Chalmers.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05- My name's Corby Johnson.- How do.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09As I said, I don't know about your problem,
0:27:09 > 0:27:15but it seems to me that in the interest of survival you'd change to something else.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17How's that?
0:27:17 > 0:27:25What I mean is, while you're looking for the cause, you should try to live through the effect.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28That's an interesting approach.
0:27:28 > 0:27:35Having done some research on Harley's moonshine, I can tell you, I'd rather chance sunstroke.
0:27:35 > 0:27:41I'll take that into consideration. I've got to get to the general store.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45- Do you work there? - Oh, no, I just sit there.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53Doc's making me money - he sends a boarder and kills her appetite.
0:27:53 > 0:27:58- Odie wasn't bothering you?- No, he was telling me about himself.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01I'm surprised he left(!)
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Drink that, it'll fix you up.
0:28:05 > 0:28:10You're foolish getting up. I could have brought you breakfast in bed.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12I have some things to do.
0:28:12 > 0:28:18- Tell me...has Odie Chalmers lived in Progress very long?- All his life.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21And how long have you lived here?
0:28:21 > 0:28:27All my life. Why are you so interested in who lives here
0:28:27 > 0:28:30and for how long?
0:28:30 > 0:28:34No reason. I just like the place.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Hi, Sally.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39Hi.
0:28:40 > 0:28:46Sally Watson. She's taking the Doc a jar of her home-made coleslaw.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50- She took a jar of something yesterday.- Coleslaw.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53- You mean...- Every day.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56- He must have a cellar-full.- Why?
0:28:56 > 0:29:01She's tried everything else and coleslaw is her last resort.
0:29:04 > 0:29:08- Better?- Thanks for the coffee.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12- When can I expect you back? - For dinner.
0:29:12 > 0:29:16Here, dinner is supper and lunch is dinner, so there ain't any lunch.
0:29:16 > 0:29:20Good, I've been eating too much anyway.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27Afternoon.
0:29:27 > 0:29:32- Hello, Odie. How you been? - I can't kick due to rheumatism.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36Bring that crate of chickens, I've got shopping to do.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39You ain't spending in one place?
0:29:39 > 0:29:45If you think he's squandering it at Harley's place, you got another thing coming.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48I don't go to Harley's, he comes to me.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02- Afternoon. - Hello, Ed.
0:30:02 > 0:30:06- What can I do for you? - Where's that shopping list? Here.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10- One pair of overalls.- Medium.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17- NORA:- How much for ginger? - < It's going up.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20- NORA:- Chickens are up too. Hi, Doc.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22Hello, Nora.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25Did the Jordans order anything?
0:30:25 > 0:30:29Diapers. Amos, help Doc and Digger get them diapers.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Digger and I can manage.
0:30:32 > 0:30:37- NORA:- One pair of work shoes. Large. A sack of flour.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40I don't want to monkey with them.
0:30:40 > 0:30:45It hasn't been long since you wore them. Grab a hold.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57- Hi, Ed.- Hello, Doc.
0:30:57 > 0:31:01- How's it going? - Same old miserable way -
0:31:01 > 0:31:05work, work, work and never getting a nickel ahead.
0:31:05 > 0:31:09And besides that, my back is killing me now.
0:31:09 > 0:31:14- How's your leg?- My leg's all right now. It's my back that's bad.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20Here. These ought to help you.
0:31:20 > 0:31:25Thanks, Doctor. Looks like the same kind you gave me for the leg.
0:31:25 > 0:31:29- No, those are back pills.- Back.
0:31:29 > 0:31:34- I'll see you later, Ed. - I sure hope you do, Doc.
0:31:49 > 0:31:56- I wonder what that store's got that Ed ain't got. - Well, what do you know!
0:31:56 > 0:31:59Come on, Digger, let's go.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10MUSIC: "Rock-a-bye Baby"
0:32:14 > 0:32:17You know I've only got one baby.
0:32:17 > 0:32:22- Where do I put this? - Over there.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27Any idea who sent this stuff?
0:32:27 > 0:32:30No, sir. We just follow the stork.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Where's this baby going, overseas?
0:32:58 > 0:33:03- Want to see something funny? - Something else?- Come here.
0:33:13 > 0:33:17I bought all this from Ed Meeker last month.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20Then 20 minutes ago this landslide started.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24- Did you call the department store? - Twice.
0:33:24 > 0:33:32The manager said, "No mistake, it's a gift. The person who sent it doesn't want to be named."
0:33:32 > 0:33:34The whole thing is weird.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37- How's Barb?- OK, I guess.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42Oh, she's fine, so is the baby.
0:33:42 > 0:33:43Good.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47Hey, Doc, don't tell her about this stuff.
0:33:47 > 0:33:52She'd worry if she knew the place was cluttered like this.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55It's just misplaced generosity.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59- But what do I do? - Have another baby, I guess.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13You won't have to wash 'em, just burn 'em.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16PHONE RINGS
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Where's the phone? Over there?
0:34:20 > 0:34:23That's just the box. The phone's on the cord.
0:34:37 > 0:34:39Hello.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42Oh, yes, Miss McMurty. ..Yes.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Yes, I'll tell him.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53Doc...
0:34:53 > 0:34:57BABY CRIES
0:34:57 > 0:35:01Miss McMurty's on the phone, Odie's bad sick.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Tell her I'll be right there.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07Sure.
0:35:07 > 0:35:11- See you tomorrow, Barb. - All right, thank you, Doctor.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16He's in his room.
0:35:16 > 0:35:20- What's the matter with him? - He seems to be out of his head.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23He didn't recognise me, just stared.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26- Didn't he talk?- Not a word.
0:35:26 > 0:35:31He MUST be sick. Something's happened to this town.
0:35:31 > 0:35:35Does that package have anything to do with it?
0:35:35 > 0:35:38- What package? - He got a package this afternoon.
0:35:38 > 0:35:43I saw the delivery truck. It wasn't local, must be from Little Rock.
0:35:43 > 0:35:49- What kind of package?- The size of a lot of peaches. Was all he could do to carry it up the stairs.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52Never saw him until I heard him fall.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59CAR HORN BEEPS
0:35:59 > 0:36:02Miss Johnson. Hey, Miss McMurty.
0:36:02 > 0:36:07- What's the matter? - That's fishing equipment she's got.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11Maybe she's blowing her horn for help. Give her a hand.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26- Scotch.- Scotch.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30I saw a strange delivery, but I didn't know what it was.
0:36:30 > 0:36:35- Why would Odie buy expensive scotch? - I don't believe he bought it.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38- How is he?- He'll be all right.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40Here. Take this and lock it up.
0:36:40 > 0:36:44Don't let Odie anywhere near it.
0:36:44 > 0:36:48And you'll do me a favour if you mention this to nobody.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50It never happened.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54Little Rock.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02- Hi, Corby.- Hello, Doc.
0:37:02 > 0:37:07- You must've had a big day.- A wonderful day, I've been shopping.
0:37:07 > 0:37:13- That Little Rock's quite a shopping centre.- Oh, I went to Pine Bluff.
0:37:13 > 0:37:18Pine Bluff? You have to go through Little Rock to get there.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Really? I never noticed.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23Corby, Little Rock is a lot bigger than Pine Bluff.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25I'm surprised you overlooked it.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29I think lots when I'm driving, and I don't notice towns.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33- Little Rock's a city. - What's the difference?
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- Did you have a nice day, Doc? - Pretty bad.
0:37:36 > 0:37:41- What happened?- Some idiot's running around town playing Santa Claus.
0:37:41 > 0:37:46- Some who?- Idiot. You a fly fisherman, Corby?
0:37:53 > 0:37:58What's wrong with being kind to people, playing Santa Claus?
0:37:58 > 0:38:05Nothing usually. In this case, the whole scheme backfired, causing no end of trouble.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08- What kind of trouble? - It's Odie, Corby.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12Odie's sick in bed. Alcoholic poisoning.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Alcoholic poisoning?
0:38:16 > 0:38:19I shouldn't have mentioned it. Now you're all upset.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23- I shouldn't bother you with our problems.- You should.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26I'm interested in your problem.
0:38:26 > 0:38:31You're on vacation. Why waste time on an empty-headed idiot?
0:38:33 > 0:38:37- How about a movie tonight? - No, thank you.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39I can't. I'm fishing with Digger in the morning,
0:38:39 > 0:38:40and must get to bed early.
0:38:42 > 0:38:44Some other time. See you later, Corby.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53Empty-headed idiot, am I?
0:38:54 > 0:38:56SALLY: Hello, Doc.
0:38:56 > 0:39:00Hi, Sally. Go on inside.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03Empty-headed idiot.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05DOOR BANGS
0:39:31 > 0:39:35- That was Doc, wasn't it?- I guess so, he came out of Doc's house.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38- Wasn't there a girl with him?- Yeah.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40It was Sally, wasn't it?
0:39:40 > 0:39:43- What day is it?- Friday.
0:39:43 > 0:39:48It was Doc and Sally then. Friday's their movie night.
0:39:48 > 0:39:49Oh.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54He asked me first. You heard him.
0:39:54 > 0:39:55I know.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00I suppose he and Sally go around together.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02- Who and Sally?- Doc and Sally.
0:40:02 > 0:40:06No more than Doc and Myrtle or Doc and Peggy.
0:40:08 > 0:40:13- I'm surprised he isn't married. - Most of the girls here are too.
0:40:13 > 0:40:14Digger,
0:40:14 > 0:40:19he may be a good friend of yours, but you must admit
0:40:19 > 0:40:21he is terribly conceited.
0:40:21 > 0:40:26I wouldn't say conceited. I think it's more... Well, Doc's confident.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32- Aren't there other bachelors? - Joe Wheelan.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35- What sort of a man is he?- Ugly.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38- You don't have to be good-looking. - He's 60.
0:40:41 > 0:40:46It's not a healthy situation, whichever way you look at it.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48Well, Doc does his best.
0:40:50 > 0:40:55- What do you mean?- He sure spreads himself around as much as he can.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04It's been the hardest day since ants got in my pantry.
0:41:04 > 0:41:07- How's Mr Chalmers?- Who?
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Oh, Odie? Better, I think.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13I brought him chicken broth and he took it.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16I can't figure who'd do a thing like that to Odie.
0:41:16 > 0:41:19He may be a drunk, but he's one of the nicest people.
0:41:30 > 0:41:34Digger! What are you doing up at this time of night?
0:41:36 > 0:41:40My mother knows. I said I was staying with you.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43- Why aren't you in bed? - I was waiting for you.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51Look at this. Her real name.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54While you've been to the movies, I've been detectiving.
0:41:54 > 0:41:58Corby Lane. Lane Oil Corporation...
0:41:58 > 0:42:03- Where did you get this?- I copied it from the registration in her car.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05It was in the glove compartment. And that's not all.
0:42:05 > 0:42:09She didn't go to the movies because of an engagement.
0:42:09 > 0:42:14I kept an eye on her, like you said, and a fella turned up.
0:42:14 > 0:42:18Oh, no, he was an old man. She called him Bentley.
0:42:18 > 0:42:22They talked privately and went for a walk.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Take it easy, Digger. Lane.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27- Corby Lane.- Ring a bell?
0:42:28 > 0:42:30Maybe.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32I knew there was something fishy.
0:42:32 > 0:42:36- How am I doing? - Know the penalty for rifling cars?
0:42:36 > 0:42:41- You said, "Keep an eye on her." - A friendly eye. A friendly eye.
0:42:41 > 0:42:47- Forget it. You may have solved the case single-handed.- What's this?
0:42:47 > 0:42:51My father's files. If we're on the right track, the answer's here.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56Lane.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L!
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Here it is, Corby Lane.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08Aged two years and two months.
0:43:08 > 0:43:11Father...
0:43:11 > 0:43:14I remember the whole thing now.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16I was ten years old.
0:43:16 > 0:43:21Father was an oil man, down on his luck. Kid was on the verge of death.
0:43:21 > 0:43:27Dad wasn't equipped to handle the operation so he took her to a clinic in St Louis.
0:43:27 > 0:43:32Her father didn't have money to get to St Louis or pay the expenses,
0:43:32 > 0:43:36so my father took up a collection, everybody in town.
0:43:36 > 0:43:41He and Dr Upton performed the operation. Kid was good as new.
0:43:41 > 0:43:45Shucks! The least she could have been was a bank robber.
0:43:45 > 0:43:51- She's a nice girl.- I was hoping for something else, like murder.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54- Get me a carton of eggs.- Eggs?
0:43:54 > 0:43:55Eggs!
0:44:01 > 0:44:03- What you going to do with them? - A little bartering.
0:44:03 > 0:44:06- Like what?- Go to bed, Digger.
0:44:06 > 0:44:09Go to bed.
0:44:09 > 0:44:13And, Dig, how's the chances of just keeping this between us?
0:44:15 > 0:44:18- Night, Doc.- Good night.
0:44:18 > 0:44:20- She's stuck on you.- Nah.
0:44:20 > 0:44:25Yeah. I hope she don't fish as crazy as she does everything else.
0:44:29 > 0:44:31That accent fooled me.
0:44:34 > 0:44:37STONES HIT THE WINDOW
0:44:37 > 0:44:39WHISTLING
0:44:47 > 0:44:49- Hi.- It's you! How was the movie?
0:44:49 > 0:44:55- You should've seen it.- Sorry, I couldn't go. Now I can't sleep.
0:44:55 > 0:45:00Maybe you're hungry. How about a nice, tall ice-cream soda?
0:45:00 > 0:45:04- At this time of night?- Yeah.
0:45:04 > 0:45:06Where? Harley's?
0:45:06 > 0:45:11- No, this is on the level. - Wait, I'll get dressed.
0:45:17 > 0:45:19BELL RINGS
0:45:22 > 0:45:24- He doesn't lock it?- No.
0:45:24 > 0:45:31Somebody might need something in the night - pabulum for the kids, ice-cream sodas.
0:45:31 > 0:45:34Hardly anybody locks the doors here.
0:45:34 > 0:45:36Sit down.
0:45:36 > 0:45:41- I must say, I like this town. - I've heard somebody say that before.
0:45:41 > 0:45:45- What will you have? - A strawberry soda.- Coming up.
0:45:45 > 0:45:50- What are you going to have? - Some ice cream with some chocolate.
0:45:50 > 0:45:54I thought you'd have some coleslaw on it.
0:45:59 > 0:46:01You are a very adept dispenser.
0:46:01 > 0:46:07That's English for soda jerk. I'm the best in town. Strawberry?
0:46:07 > 0:46:11- I suppose you're the best doctor in town, too.- I'm the only one.
0:46:11 > 0:46:14But you're a pretty good doctor.
0:46:14 > 0:46:17Pretty good? I'm perfect.
0:46:17 > 0:46:20Graduated from university with honours, young lady.
0:46:20 > 0:46:25- What are you doing in a little town? - Thought you liked this town.
0:46:25 > 0:46:30I do. Surely a man like you would... Well...
0:46:30 > 0:46:36- You mean, why don't I go to a city and become an important man? - You could be.- Maybe.
0:46:36 > 0:46:40Your father died and you took his place.
0:46:40 > 0:46:43- I'm in a rut?- I didn't say so.
0:46:43 > 0:46:48- It's not a bad rut. - And you like to fish.
0:46:48 > 0:46:51What's wrong with living in a small town?
0:46:51 > 0:46:56If nobody wanted to live in small towns, there wouldn't be any.
0:46:56 > 0:47:00- Wouldn't take you long to find out how that would affect our way of life.- Don't get angry.
0:47:00 > 0:47:07I'm not angry, just trying to explain to a big city girl what's good about a small town.
0:47:07 > 0:47:12May take time to understand, but you'll catch on, eventually.
0:47:18 > 0:47:21There you are, Miss Lane. Drink up.
0:47:21 > 0:47:24Looks delicious.
0:47:24 > 0:47:27How's that?
0:47:32 > 0:47:36How long have you known that I'm Corby Lane?
0:47:36 > 0:47:38I put the pieces together tonight.
0:47:38 > 0:47:42- How much more do you know about me? - Not much.
0:47:42 > 0:47:45I suspect lots. You sent the Scotch to Odie?
0:47:45 > 0:47:47Yes.
0:47:47 > 0:47:52- You sent that stuff to the Jordans, didn't you?- Mmm-hmm.- Why?
0:47:52 > 0:47:57- When I was a girl...- I know. I saw your case history.
0:47:57 > 0:47:59The people of the town saved my life.
0:47:59 > 0:48:02I owe a debt and will repay them.
0:48:03 > 0:48:06Well, my part in saving your life was small,
0:48:06 > 0:48:09but if you feel you must repay me...
0:48:18 > 0:48:20You taste just like chocolate.
0:48:32 > 0:48:37What will Sally Watson say when she finds out? No more coleslaw.
0:48:39 > 0:48:40That's a low blow.
0:48:43 > 0:48:50Tell me something. If Mr Chalmers doesn't get sick after drinking that concoction of Harleys,
0:48:50 > 0:48:53why should he get sick on good Scotch?
0:48:53 > 0:48:58Well, for the past two years Harley's been working with me.
0:48:58 > 0:49:02We've been steadily cutting Odie's quart with water
0:49:02 > 0:49:07so now he gets a half pint of the real stuff a day.
0:49:07 > 0:49:12If Odie wants to stagger around on a half pint that's his business.
0:49:12 > 0:49:17- But a full quart of Scotch might have killed him.- Oh, dear.
0:49:17 > 0:49:23- How about that stuff you sent to the Jordans?- Didn't they like it?
0:49:23 > 0:49:26Honey, they had a fully-equipped nursery.
0:49:26 > 0:49:31I thought they couldn't afford it. He offered two pigs for your bill.
0:49:31 > 0:49:35That's the way the town's run. Everybody barters.
0:49:35 > 0:49:39In 1940, a doctor charged 5 for a house call,
0:49:39 > 0:49:42that 5 bought a 12-pound ham.
0:49:42 > 0:49:46I charge 10, that buys a 12-pound ham. Why work it out in money?
0:49:46 > 0:49:50A house call is worth a 12-pound ham.
0:49:50 > 0:49:56Babies are another story. See my back yard - pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, everything.
0:49:56 > 0:50:00You won't tell the Jordans? There's no harm done.
0:50:00 > 0:50:04No. Not till Barb gets out of bed and has to straighten it all out.
0:50:04 > 0:50:07- She might end up in bed again. - I hope not.
0:50:07 > 0:50:13- They're not poor?- They have one of the finest farms in the county.
0:50:13 > 0:50:16All right, I made a mistake.
0:50:16 > 0:50:18Two mistakes. Isn't that enough?
0:50:18 > 0:50:22Everyone makes mistakes. I have a debt to pay.
0:50:22 > 0:50:27Corby, would you really like to do something useful?
0:50:27 > 0:50:31- What?- Get married and have some children.
0:50:33 > 0:50:38Get married and have children. Like you say, "Take a pill after food."
0:50:38 > 0:50:41Sure. Anyone you'd care to marry?
0:50:41 > 0:50:46- As you're prescribing, why don't you tell me.- How about me?
0:50:46 > 0:50:50- Do you always prescribe yourself? - I do all right.
0:50:50 > 0:50:52- Indeed!- Take you for instance.
0:50:52 > 0:50:57This is our second time out and I've kissed you and proposed to you.
0:50:57 > 0:51:02- You ill-mannered...- Wouldn't kiss you the first time, you were drunk.
0:51:07 > 0:51:12- Those eggs were to pay for the sodas.- I'll pay for my own soda!
0:51:12 > 0:51:15- What's the matter? - I haven't any money.
0:51:18 > 0:51:21Pay for mine with this!
0:51:24 > 0:51:26DOOR SLAMS
0:51:34 > 0:51:37- VICAR:- Good morning.
0:51:39 > 0:51:42- <- So glad you could come this morning.
0:51:45 > 0:51:48- Good morning, Miss McMurty. - Morning, Reverend.
0:51:48 > 0:51:51Reverend, this is Corby Johnson.
0:51:51 > 0:51:54- Glad to know you.- Thank you.
0:51:54 > 0:51:57It's nice to see a new face here.
0:51:57 > 0:52:03There are backsliders but I keep after them. If I had a new steeple...
0:52:03 > 0:52:05- Morning.- You're early.
0:52:05 > 0:52:09< Turned over a new leaf one by one.
0:52:09 > 0:52:13As I was saying, if I had a new steeple bell,
0:52:13 > 0:52:18a loud one, I'd make Sunday morning in bed miserable.
0:52:20 > 0:52:24- Nice of you to bring Miss Johnson. - DIGGER:- Thank you.
0:52:27 > 0:52:28SALLY: Good morning.
0:52:28 > 0:52:31- Miss Johnson meet Miss Watson. - Hello.
0:52:34 > 0:52:38- Anything wrong, Miss Johnson? - No, nothing's wrong.
0:52:38 > 0:52:41- Hello, Doc.- Hi, Sally.
0:52:41 > 0:52:43- Do you know Dr Sellers?- Slightly.
0:52:43 > 0:52:46- I thought you did. - Come on, Corby.
0:52:46 > 0:52:51- That's an attractive coat. - Yes, isn't it?
0:52:51 > 0:52:54With the free trade rules round here,
0:52:54 > 0:52:57you can get almost anything...for anything.
0:52:58 > 0:53:00Sally.
0:53:00 > 0:53:01- Come on, Corby.- >
0:53:01 > 0:53:06You go ahead. May I, Miss Johnson?
0:53:06 > 0:53:09- Are you sure you're all right? - Oh, yes.
0:53:09 > 0:53:15- You seem a little dazed.- I am at first, you'll get used to me.
0:53:15 > 0:53:20- What's your sermon about? - I'm talking about Joseph's coat of many colours.
0:53:37 > 0:53:39- Morning, Odie.- Morning, Elmer.
0:53:41 > 0:53:44- Sure is Monday, ain't it? - Sure is, Odie.
0:54:01 > 0:54:04- Morning, Doc.- Morning, Odie.
0:54:04 > 0:54:06Sure is Monday, ain't it?
0:54:06 > 0:54:10Sure is. Get any sleep last night?
0:54:10 > 0:54:13Yes, but I dreamed all night I was awake.
0:54:13 > 0:54:20- How do you feel now? - Only got two ways of feelin' - either I feel bad or awful bad.
0:54:20 > 0:54:23You're a pretty sick man, Odie.
0:54:23 > 0:54:27I'm sure going to lay off that crummy imported stuff.
0:54:27 > 0:54:30Doc, there's a whole case of that stuff.
0:54:30 > 0:54:36I remember opening it but I can't remember where I put it.
0:54:36 > 0:54:39It's psychological, like you said.
0:54:39 > 0:54:44- I didn't say that. You read it. - I read some article by some doctor.
0:54:44 > 0:54:48You're going to have to think about quitting completely.
0:54:48 > 0:54:50I already made me a promise about that.
0:54:50 > 0:54:53- What promise?- A secret.- I see.
0:54:53 > 0:54:55Don't be short with me, Doc.
0:54:58 > 0:55:02Hey, Doc. Seen Joe Wheelan this morning?
0:55:02 > 0:55:09- No, why?- Looks like we've got a problem. About 10pm last night Joe was at Ed's to tell him "Goodbye."
0:55:09 > 0:55:11Goodbye? Where's he going?
0:55:11 > 0:55:16- California, for good.- For good?! - This afternoon in his new car.
0:55:16 > 0:55:18What new car?
0:55:18 > 0:55:22That's what started this all, the new car.
0:55:22 > 0:55:28Last night, a dealer drove in with a new convertible for Joe, said it was a present, didn't say who from.
0:55:28 > 0:55:33- There's a lot of presents here, lately.- There sure are.
0:55:36 > 0:55:40Ed, Odie told me about Joe. Couldn't you talk him out of it?
0:55:40 > 0:55:43I tried. We all tried.
0:55:43 > 0:55:50He's determined to take that car there and sell it. Joe's been itching to go to California.
0:55:50 > 0:55:54He can't run off. He's the only vet for 100 miles.
0:55:54 > 0:55:57That's why we're sad. Tim Markle's hog has colic.
0:55:57 > 0:55:59He's about ready to shoot Joe.
0:55:59 > 0:56:02- Where's Joe?- It won't do much good.
0:56:02 > 0:56:07- Where is he?- He's packing his car and arguing with Tim Markle.
0:56:07 > 0:56:11- Odie, can you locate Judge Hobart? - What time is it?
0:56:11 > 0:56:14Five and nine.
0:56:14 > 0:56:16He's still in bed.
0:56:16 > 0:56:22Get him up and tell him to draw up an attachment on Joe's car.
0:56:22 > 0:56:26- Who's complaining?- Me, he's owed me 110 for five years.
0:56:26 > 0:56:30- How long will it stick? - Until sense is banged into his head.
0:56:30 > 0:56:35Ed, get the Sheriff to my house. Odie, tell the Judge we'll meet in my office.
0:56:38 > 0:56:42Looks like that car ain't no better than the whiskey.
0:56:42 > 0:56:47According to the Constitution, a man has certain rights.
0:56:47 > 0:56:50We don't mean nothing personal, Joe.
0:56:50 > 0:56:56I'll make something personal! Go home and check your bank books, cos I'm going to sue.
0:56:56 > 0:56:59You resisted an officer.
0:56:59 > 0:57:02- Yeah. - Don't give me legal talk.
0:57:02 > 0:57:05You're in office due to politics.
0:57:05 > 0:57:09- Let's look at this sensibly.- You do that, I'm going to California.
0:57:09 > 0:57:14- You growed up here. - That's enough for any man.
0:57:14 > 0:57:18What about Tim Markle's hog and the Judge's mare?
0:57:18 > 0:57:22That old mare is going to be sick all its life,
0:57:22 > 0:57:25living close to contamination!
0:57:25 > 0:57:28Take it easy. I'm not sure that car wasn't stolen.
0:57:28 > 0:57:32Try something like that. Just try something!
0:57:32 > 0:57:35- Ed.- I know who gave it to me.
0:57:35 > 0:57:37ALL: Who?
0:57:37 > 0:57:41An old lady drove through here with a sick poodle.
0:57:41 > 0:57:44What's hard to believe about that?
0:57:44 > 0:57:48You read in the papers, somebody's nice to an old lady
0:57:48 > 0:57:52then she dies and leaves her place to them.
0:57:52 > 0:57:55Yeah. She's the one all right.
0:57:55 > 0:57:58Wonder what I done for her?
0:57:58 > 0:58:03Joe, you've got a perfect right to go to California if you want.
0:58:03 > 0:58:06I do, thank you, Doc(!)
0:58:06 > 0:58:08Just wait till we get another vet.
0:58:08 > 0:58:15- No!- Two weeks, Joe.- I won't stay another minute. I wouldn't touch that mare with a disinfected pole.
0:58:15 > 0:58:17Just an animal lover, aren't you?!
0:58:17 > 0:58:21Any animal must be neurotic to live with you.
0:58:21 > 0:58:22You...
0:58:22 > 0:58:25I ain't heard name-calling for ages.
0:58:25 > 0:58:30- I ain't even started yet! - I got a real sick horse, Doc.
0:58:30 > 0:58:34All right. Bring it over to mine, I'll look at it.
0:58:34 > 0:58:39- He can pay you in people. - You may as well untie him, Sheriff.
0:58:39 > 0:58:43I'm withdrawing the attachment. Enjoy California.
0:58:50 > 0:58:53This is the same kind of fly Doc uses.
0:58:53 > 0:58:56- It's dead, isn't it?- Oh, sure.
0:58:58 > 0:59:02Does Dr Sellers ever take that Sally fishing?
0:59:02 > 0:59:05Nah, she wouldn't go anywhere she couldn't dress up.
0:59:05 > 0:59:07Her mind's on marrying.
0:59:09 > 0:59:14- Did you see the coat she wore yesterday?- I never notice clothes.
0:59:14 > 0:59:17- It was my coat.- How she get it?
0:59:17 > 0:59:23I'd like to know. I gave your doctor the coat to pay for a soda.
0:59:23 > 0:59:25That's funny bartering.
0:59:25 > 0:59:29I didn't exactly give it to him. I threw it at him.
0:59:29 > 0:59:32I want to know what your doctor...
0:59:32 > 0:59:36Wait. He ain't my doctor. I've never had a sick day.
0:59:36 > 0:59:39Here, I'll show you how to cast.
0:59:39 > 0:59:43- It looks like she got the coat from him.- It does.
0:59:43 > 0:59:45Reel in.
0:59:46 > 0:59:50- Boy, this is a keen rod! - I'm glad you like it.
0:59:54 > 0:59:58Bring it back like this and let it go like this.
1:00:05 > 1:00:07Good morning, Miss Santa Claus.
1:00:09 > 1:00:12You fish like you do everything else.
1:00:12 > 1:00:15Probably end up with that hook in Digger's breeches.
1:00:15 > 1:00:18I'd prefer they're not Digger's!
1:00:18 > 1:00:22Your latest good deed was a real humdinger.
1:00:22 > 1:00:25You've turned me into a horse doctor.
1:00:25 > 1:00:30I have no doubt that you're a horse doctor, but how can you blame me?
1:00:30 > 1:00:33Joe Wheelan. You gave him a new car.
1:00:33 > 1:00:36- So?- He's leaving. He's our only vet.
1:00:36 > 1:00:40Maybe you can tell me how Sally Watson got my coat?
1:00:40 > 1:00:45- Only vet and you get rid of him. - You gave it to her.
1:00:45 > 1:00:47I've got to doctor hogs, cows, every living thing cos of you!
1:00:47 > 1:00:53- You gave it to her, that's stealing. - That's stupid! Who cares?
1:00:53 > 1:00:57- If I was a man I'd punch your nose! - I'd show you who'd punch who.
1:00:57 > 1:01:00You beast!
1:01:03 > 1:01:06Hey, Doc!
1:01:06 > 1:01:10- Tim Markle's hog!- Tim Markle's hog.
1:01:10 > 1:01:12Yeah, had a relapse.
1:01:16 > 1:01:19Put me down! Put me down!
1:01:19 > 1:01:20Oh!
1:01:20 > 1:01:23HE SNEEZES
1:01:29 > 1:01:32I'll get even, you pig doctor.
1:01:36 > 1:01:39You folks play the funniest games.
1:01:39 > 1:01:42- Want to go home?- No, I want to fish.
1:01:42 > 1:01:44Your rod's over there.
1:01:46 > 1:01:49We may as well go home, you've scared the fish.
1:01:58 > 1:02:01You've got him! Reel him in.
1:02:01 > 1:02:04- How?- Turn the reel.
1:02:11 > 1:02:14Reel again!
1:02:14 > 1:02:17That's wrong. That's wrong. That's right.
1:02:17 > 1:02:19That's it.
1:02:19 > 1:02:22Come on.
1:02:26 > 1:02:30- You take it. - It's your catch. Claim!
1:02:30 > 1:02:34- Claim what?- Turn your reel. Turn again.
1:02:34 > 1:02:38- What do I do when I get him? - Get him first.
1:02:42 > 1:02:45I'll take him off the hook for you.
1:02:46 > 1:02:50- Gosh!- I got him, didn't I?- Yeah.
1:02:50 > 1:02:53He's pretty big, huh?
1:02:53 > 1:02:56Gosh, this is Old Hercules. Poor Doc.
1:02:56 > 1:02:59You mean that's Old Hercules?
1:02:59 > 1:03:05All those spats ain't nothing compared to how he'll act when he finds out you caught his fish.
1:03:13 > 1:03:15It's awfully smelly.
1:03:15 > 1:03:18- You're stuck on Doc. - Don't be ridiculous.
1:03:18 > 1:03:20You put the fish back when you're mad at him.
1:03:20 > 1:03:23- That proves you're stuck on him. - I'm not!
1:03:23 > 1:03:26I just wouldn't even have a fish that had anything to do with him.
1:04:13 > 1:04:17- How you feelin'? - Could hardly make it out here today.
1:04:17 > 1:04:22- How come you're so late? - Everybody got a letter today.
1:04:22 > 1:04:26Whole lot of them from Little Rock.
1:04:26 > 1:04:28Don't make sense.
1:04:28 > 1:04:32- You've been waiting for a letter for three years.- I get lots of mail.
1:04:32 > 1:04:35Yeah, circulars and catalogues.
1:04:35 > 1:04:39Those letters are alike - no return address.
1:04:39 > 1:04:44- Ain't you gonna open it? - When I'm good and ready, I will.
1:04:44 > 1:04:49- No need to be uppity. It's probably an ad.- Time will tell.
1:05:19 > 1:05:23- I'd like one of those big bottles of Aspirin. - Any better cigars?
1:05:23 > 1:05:26- I'll buy a straw hat. - How much is this?
1:05:26 > 1:05:29- One at a time. ODIE:- Where's Harry?
1:05:29 > 1:05:32He quit.
1:05:32 > 1:05:34- Doc. Got yours yet?- What?
1:05:34 > 1:05:37- You haven't heard? - What?
1:05:37 > 1:05:41- You better sit down. - And speak to us respectful.
1:05:41 > 1:05:44We are men of means. Look.
1:05:44 > 1:05:47- Bet you never seen anything like that before.- I never did.
1:05:47 > 1:05:49Here's your aspirin. That's 26 cents.
1:05:49 > 1:05:52Charge it.
1:05:52 > 1:05:57- Where did this money come from? - From heaven via the mail, Doc.
1:05:57 > 1:06:00When I got mine, I thought I'd drunk that whiskey.
1:06:00 > 1:06:03- Is there any at my house? - Sure is! Every house in town!
1:06:03 > 1:06:07- See you later. - Ain't you going to get yours?
1:06:07 > 1:06:11- It won't fly away, Odie. - Where does it come from?
1:06:11 > 1:06:15It must be one of them Government spending projects.
1:06:15 > 1:06:17What do you think?
1:06:17 > 1:06:20Oh, I don't see that it makes any difference. The money's good, isn't it?
1:06:20 > 1:06:23- ODIE:- It's the first thing we checked. - Why give it to us?
1:06:23 > 1:06:25I can't figure it out.
1:06:25 > 1:06:30- ODIE:- Don't worry. Like Doc says, maybe it's a reward for clean living.
1:06:30 > 1:06:32I guess I'll go and get mine.
1:06:32 > 1:06:36Nice to know you've got wealthy friends, ain't it?
1:06:36 > 1:06:40- Yeah.- It will make a difference to this community, huh?
1:06:40 > 1:06:41Yes.
1:06:41 > 1:06:49- What will you do with yours?- I saw a bomb shelter for sale. I'll buy it and hide till this blows over.
1:06:49 > 1:06:51See you later, boys.
1:06:55 > 1:06:58He sure seems depressed.
1:06:58 > 1:07:03Doc's dealt in livestock, it will take a while to get used to money.
1:07:12 > 1:07:15- Miss Mac!- Good morning, Doc.
1:07:15 > 1:07:17- Any word of Corby?- No.
1:07:19 > 1:07:24- She didn't mention going to Fort Knox?- She went to Little Rock.
1:07:24 > 1:07:29- I figured that.- She'll be back. She's gone on account of business.
1:07:29 > 1:07:31- (What a business.) - What did you say?- Nothing.
1:07:31 > 1:07:37I don't think she meant to tell me where she was going. It slipped out.
1:07:37 > 1:07:40She, er, stammered and...
1:07:40 > 1:07:44stuttered and...and she said...
1:07:47 > 1:07:52The populous of Progress, Arkansas, a town of about 200 people,
1:07:52 > 1:07:55are singing Rudi The Red-Nosed Reindeer,
1:07:55 > 1:08:01cos, today, every resident had a letter from Little Rock, in which there was a great deal of currency.
1:08:01 > 1:08:06'No message, no return address, just the money. Now...'
1:08:06 > 1:08:11Lucky we're passing through this state. We could make it by tomorrow.
1:08:11 > 1:08:17- What about California? - If I've got to go where it rains, I'll go where it rains money.
1:08:17 > 1:08:20CAR HORN
1:08:20 > 1:08:23How far to Progress, Arkansas?
1:08:23 > 1:08:26- Five gallons. - Give me five gallons.
1:08:26 > 1:08:30- Seen the papers? - Which way is it?- Highway 33.
1:08:37 > 1:08:43'We're in front of Ed Meeker's store in Progress, a small village north-west of Little Rock.
1:08:43 > 1:08:49'The citizens received letters with money. We're talking to recipients.
1:08:49 > 1:08:52'What's your name? Odie Chalmers.
1:08:52 > 1:08:59'What did you do to get this money? Tore open the envelope and there it was.
1:08:59 > 1:09:02'Thank you. Now, we're going to talk to others...'
1:09:10 > 1:09:13- Hey, Sally. - Hi.
1:09:22 > 1:09:26- Hi, Sally. Come in. - No, thanks, I haven't time.
1:09:26 > 1:09:29- What's your hurry?- I'm leaving town.
1:09:29 > 1:09:34- Yeah?- I'm doing a business course now I can afford it.
1:09:34 > 1:09:38- A business course? - A girl has to look after her future.
1:09:38 > 1:09:40Good luck.
1:09:54 > 1:09:58- If you don't want me to go, I won't. - A girl's got to think of her future.
1:10:01 > 1:10:05- You'll think of me? - Every Friday, at the movies.
1:10:06 > 1:10:09- Bye, Sally.- Good bye.
1:10:15 > 1:10:20Digger, when my hand gets steady, I'll write to you.
1:10:20 > 1:10:21Doc!
1:10:26 > 1:10:31- You're leaving town too?- Wait a minute, Doc. I'm a loyal citizen.
1:10:32 > 1:10:36- What's the suitcase for? - I'm in a predicament.
1:10:36 > 1:10:39- Remember I got that foreign whiskey? - Yeah.
1:10:39 > 1:10:45I promised myself, if I got well and had the money, I'd go to Kansas City and take the cure.
1:10:45 > 1:10:48I thought it was a safe promise.
1:10:48 > 1:10:51That's a real predicament, Odie.
1:10:51 > 1:10:55- A man can't break a promise to himself, he'd have no faith in himself.- That's right.
1:10:55 > 1:11:02The only thing that can save me would be for you to advise me that these cures are medically harmful.
1:11:02 > 1:11:06I never heard of anyone dying from NOT drinking.
1:11:06 > 1:11:09Maybe there's discoveries you ain't heard of.
1:11:09 > 1:11:13- No. What time's your bus? - Any minute.
1:11:13 > 1:11:17- I'll drive you.- I'll walk, maybe won't get there on time.
1:11:17 > 1:11:22- What about the rest of your money? - I took care of that.
1:11:22 > 1:11:27These cures ain't infallible, so I left the rest with Harley, in case.
1:11:27 > 1:11:32- I'm glad wealth hasn't changed you. - So long, Doc.- So long, Odie.
1:11:34 > 1:11:37That suitcase is kinda heavy, isn't it?
1:11:37 > 1:11:43Yeah. I've got it full of Harley's stuff to take me through the cure.
1:11:50 > 1:11:52Digger. Stand up.
1:11:54 > 1:11:55Turn around.
1:11:59 > 1:12:04- What are you dressed up for?- Ma says I'd better get used to them.
1:12:04 > 1:12:07- You'll be a well-dressed man now? - Yeah.
1:12:07 > 1:12:11- Let's go fishing. - I'd scare the fish.
1:12:11 > 1:12:14- Change your clothes. - Ma burned them up.
1:12:14 > 1:12:17- I can't go fishing with you anymore. - Why?
1:12:17 > 1:12:22I'm going to school to get educated and study music. I hate it.
1:12:22 > 1:12:24Music? Who knows about music here?
1:12:24 > 1:12:31Pa wants me to go to the St Louis Conservatory of Music. Ma prefers the Kansas City Conservatory.
1:12:31 > 1:12:35I reckon I'll wind up in Kansas City.
1:12:35 > 1:12:39I'm sorry for the day I picked out that piano.
1:12:41 > 1:12:45All because of a scatter-brain who wants to do good.
1:12:45 > 1:12:48- She's stuck on you, Doc.- Oh, no.
1:12:48 > 1:12:52- You know Old Hercules? - What about him?
1:12:52 > 1:12:54- She caught him.- She caught him!
1:12:56 > 1:12:58- Probably used a worm?- Fly.
1:12:58 > 1:13:04After all these years I've been trying to land that two-timing fish and a giddy idiot catches it.
1:13:04 > 1:13:07- She threw him back.- She what?
1:13:07 > 1:13:11Threw him back. That's why I said she's stuck on ya.
1:13:28 > 1:13:30Hello, Digger.
1:13:30 > 1:13:33- S'pose she heard you?- No.
1:13:33 > 1:13:37- Why's it locked?- Miss McMurty's out of business and gone to Little Rock.
1:13:39 > 1:13:45I wanted to get some things. I'm leaving. I'm going back to New York.
1:13:45 > 1:13:50Miss McMurty's left everybody's things down at the general store.
1:13:54 > 1:13:56Thank you, Digger.
1:13:56 > 1:14:00- Why didn't you say something to her?- What?
1:14:00 > 1:14:03Maybe you're right, maybe you shouldn't.
1:14:21 > 1:14:25SHOUTING
1:15:05 > 1:15:08- Who is it?- Corby Johnson. May I see you, Mr Meeker?
1:15:12 > 1:15:15What's all the trouble out front?
1:15:15 > 1:15:19Crazy people, half of them complete strangers.
1:15:19 > 1:15:22They want to register, figured on getting money in the mail.
1:15:22 > 1:15:26Half who've got money are leaving forwarding addresses.
1:15:26 > 1:15:31Half want to buy on credit and spend money in Little Rock.
1:15:31 > 1:15:36- That's three halves. It doesn't make sense.- Nothing makes sense. The whole town's gone crazy.
1:15:36 > 1:15:38So I just locked up.
1:15:38 > 1:15:43- You think it's because of the money in the mail? - I don't think, I know.
1:15:43 > 1:15:47- The idiot who sent it should be put in a straitjacket.- Straitjacket!
1:15:59 > 1:16:01Hey, did you see that sign?
1:16:01 > 1:16:04I don't believe in signs.
1:16:12 > 1:16:15You're breaking the law.
1:16:15 > 1:16:19- Are you the law? - No, I'm not but...
1:16:19 > 1:16:22BOTTLES BREAK
1:16:22 > 1:16:25ALL: Oh!
1:16:27 > 1:16:32That settles it. I'm going to get the Sheriff and have you put in jail.
1:16:32 > 1:16:36Don't you dare go away.
1:16:36 > 1:16:42Sheriff, a joker parked his car in a bus space, when I told him, he kicked my suitcase and it's leaking.
1:16:42 > 1:16:44There he is.
1:16:44 > 1:16:48Ain't you gonna arrest him? It ain't hospitable.
1:16:48 > 1:16:50If I was Sheriff, I'd arrest him.
1:16:50 > 1:16:54Judge, swear him in. Hold up your right hand.
1:16:54 > 1:16:56Do you swear to act as Sheriff?
1:16:56 > 1:16:58I do. You are.
1:16:58 > 1:17:01Oh, no.
1:17:01 > 1:17:04LOUD LAUGHTER
1:17:11 > 1:17:12Just a moment.
1:17:12 > 1:17:16SHE WHISPERS
1:17:16 > 1:17:18GUNSHOT ODIE: Your attention.
1:17:18 > 1:17:22Ladies and gentlemen, I owe you an apology.
1:17:22 > 1:17:28First, I'd like to say that I came to this town a few weeks ago
1:17:28 > 1:17:32with the purpose of helping people who once helped me.
1:17:33 > 1:17:37Instead I have caused a great deal of trouble.
1:17:37 > 1:17:40I felt I owed a debt to the people here.
1:17:40 > 1:17:44- Why isn't important. - Get to the point.
1:17:44 > 1:17:48- What's this all about? - Is this a trick?
1:17:48 > 1:17:49Let her talk.
1:17:52 > 1:17:54I'll get to the point.
1:17:54 > 1:17:59You may as well go home, there isn't going to be more money.
1:17:59 > 1:18:03THEY ALL SHOUT / GROAN
1:18:05 > 1:18:09I know because I'm the one who sent it.
1:18:09 > 1:18:12CROWD GASPS
1:18:12 > 1:18:17My only excuse is that I was trying to do good.
1:18:17 > 1:18:22- Hey, lady, you're not giving more money?- I certainly am not.
1:18:22 > 1:18:26- I drove 200 miles.- You can drive 200 miles back.
1:18:26 > 1:18:28LAUGHTER
1:18:28 > 1:18:32Again, I'd like to say I'm sorry...
1:18:37 > 1:18:38That does it.
1:18:43 > 1:18:46As Sheriff, I arrest you on three counts -
1:18:46 > 1:18:51you parked in a bus space, assault and battery, and on general count.
1:18:53 > 1:18:55You coward!
1:18:55 > 1:18:58What did you want to do that for?
1:18:58 > 1:19:04- Don't you hicks come any closer.- > - The lady's been giving away money.
1:19:04 > 1:19:07Stay where you are. Let me have that gun.
1:19:07 > 1:19:10Don't come any closer.
1:19:12 > 1:19:14Put this away, Judge.
1:19:15 > 1:19:18Odie, are you all right?
1:19:21 > 1:19:24I'm all right, Doc.
1:19:25 > 1:19:29- Are you sure?- Yeah.- I'm sorry for having to do that to you, Mister.
1:19:29 > 1:19:32I don't blame you for coming here. I don't blame any of you.
1:19:32 > 1:19:35We all like the idea of easy money,
1:19:35 > 1:19:39but there isn't any. I've been alone in arguing against it.
1:19:39 > 1:19:42We're with you now, Doc.
1:19:44 > 1:19:47I'll tell you how it's going to end.
1:19:47 > 1:19:52There isn't enough water for you all. Sanitary conditions are worse.
1:19:52 > 1:19:55Sickness and epidemic will start.
1:19:55 > 1:19:58I'm a doctor, I know what I'm talking about.
1:19:58 > 1:20:02We've always been a happy, friendly, little town.
1:20:02 > 1:20:06There aren't many of us so we like visitors.
1:20:06 > 1:20:11This stupid gold rush when there's no gold can only end up in disappointment and tragedy.
1:20:11 > 1:20:15My advice is to clear out. Go back home.
1:20:15 > 1:20:18Or where there's adequate facilities.
1:20:18 > 1:20:23If you want to stay then you'll have to plan and work
1:20:23 > 1:20:28- and help straighten the tangle we're in.- We could use a good horse.
1:20:28 > 1:20:35Give the Sheriff his badge and do something useful. That's about all I have to tell you folks,
1:20:35 > 1:20:37except thank you for listening,
1:20:37 > 1:20:44and to say how sorry I am that this whole...idiotic affair had to happen. Thank you.
1:20:47 > 1:20:53If you want to do something constructive, pass a hat around to collect enough money
1:20:53 > 1:20:57for people to buy gasoline for these people to get out of town.
1:21:37 > 1:21:40SIREN WAILS
1:22:02 > 1:22:05Five seconds off the record.
1:22:05 > 1:22:09If he bent over, his hip pockets would dip in sand.
1:22:19 > 1:22:21SIREN STOPS
1:22:24 > 1:22:26- Oh, it's you.- Yes, it's me!
1:22:26 > 1:22:29- Why are you yelling?- Cos you were!
1:22:29 > 1:22:31I was not yelling.
1:22:31 > 1:22:36- I expected you to. - I've screamed at you long enough.
1:22:36 > 1:22:39- You hate me. - What makes you think that?
1:22:39 > 1:22:42You've stopped screaming at me.
1:22:42 > 1:22:45Why did you push the button?
1:22:45 > 1:22:51An emergency. I wanted to apologise to you and the others for all the trouble I've caused you.
1:22:51 > 1:22:57- I've apologised to everyone. You were last on the list. - It's all right. Forget it.
1:22:57 > 1:23:04Believe me, it isn't easy to apologise to you. When I set out to do a thing, I finish it.
1:23:04 > 1:23:06Certainly do.
1:23:10 > 1:23:12Well, I'll say goodbye.
1:23:12 > 1:23:15Wait a minute.
1:23:15 > 1:23:20- Where you going? What will you do? - What difference would that make?
1:23:20 > 1:23:22I've got used to having you around.
1:23:22 > 1:23:28- You'd better get used to something else.- Something else won't get it.
1:23:28 > 1:23:32If you're asking me to stay, no thank you.
1:23:32 > 1:23:35I'm not asking you to stay, I'm asking you to marry me.
1:23:36 > 1:23:40You'd have no scruples about marrying a girl with money?
1:23:40 > 1:23:44It might cost me a few sleepless nights, but I'll get over it.
1:23:46 > 1:23:48I'll think it over.
1:23:57 > 1:23:59Doc!
1:24:00 > 1:24:02I've...thought it over.
1:24:25 > 1:24:28Doc, I don't have to take them piano lessons.
