Cheaper by the Dozen Page #2

- I'm going to turn.

It's okay, Dad. I think you can make it.

I know I can make it. Hold out your hand.

- Hi, brother.

- Hi, brother.

Hi!

Eh, that fan belt again.

You have to get out, Bill.

- Excuse me, Lillie.

- It's not going to blow up, is it?

Of course not.

Wort take a minute to fix it.

Incidentally, now's a good time,

while we're stopped, if any of you

want to go see Mrs. Murphy.

- Well, how about it?

- Not me, Dad.

All right. But remember, all of you,

this is your last chance.

Can't understand why a good car

like this should keep acting up.

If it's not one thing, it's another.

Last week it was the carburetor.

- Who did that?

- Uh, that was a good joke on you, Dad.

Listen, young man...

there's a time and a place for jokes,

and a time and a place for spankings.

And the sooner you learn... Get out. Get out.

Mercy Maud, Frank. I'll bet you jumped

six and 9/10ths inches that time.

Ha, you're right, son.

That was a good joke on me. By jingo,

I'll bet I did jump six and 9/10ths inches.

Oh, these kids. These kids.

Oh, excuse me, dear. I did that.

It was accidental.

#You made life cheery

when you called me dearie #

# 'Twas down where

the bluegrass grows #

#Your lips were sweeter

than julep #

#When you wore a tulip #

- #And I wore a big, red rose #

- # Bom, bom ##

- Ah, Lillie, what do you suppose

piddling little families...

- with only five or six children

do with themselves?

- I can't imagine.

But I do know one thing.

We'll look back on moments like these

as the happiest in our lives.

- You children hear that?

- Yes, sir.

All right.

Don't forget it.

Dad. Hey, Dad.

- Yes, son?

- I gotta go see Mrs. Murphy.

- I asked you not 15 minutes ago,

and you said that you...

- Yes, I know...

but, gee, I can't

help it, Dad.

- Me too, Dad.

- I do too, Dad.

By jingo, I gave you your last chance.

I'm not stopping again.

- But, Dad...

- Nothing doing. You had every opportunity.

Frank, I think

you'd better stop.

All right. Out you go.

And hurry up.

We haven't got all day!

Make it snappy.

All right. You can open your eyes now.

Well, what do you think of it?

- Oh, Frank, it's beautiful.

- It's wonderful, Dad.

I'm glad you like it. Wait till you see the inside.

Come on. Let's get out.

Come on there, Frank. Help your mother.

That's a good fella.

- You must admit it's a mighty fine

piece of property.

- It's lovely.

I knew it was the right place

the minute I laid eyes on it.

I didn't say much or try to describe it.

I didn't want you to be disappointed.

- Oh, no, Daddy. We love it.

- Howdy. You folks moving in here?

- That's right. Gilbreth's the name.
