Love Finds Andy Hardy Page #3

Well, well, well.

You're Betsy Booth, Martha Draper's baby.

l've come for Christmas.

Mother's doing

a musical comedy in Chicago.

l'm gonna be on the stage too

when l grow up.

l'm studying for it.

l hope you're a bigger success

than your mother.

So we're gonna be neighbors, eh?

l'm Judge Hardy.

ls Andy Hardy your son?

l have heard something to that effect.

Grandma always writes about him.

Oh, he's so polite,

and he always runs her errands for her.

She says he's the nicest boy

in the neighborhood.

Christmas with Andy Hardy next door!

-l hope you won't be disappointed.

-Oh, l won't.

-Well, goodbye, Judge Hardy. For now.

-Goodbye.

Don't forget, we're neighbors.

Here, here, here.

What's all the--?

Oh, Dad.

lt can't be that bad, Marian.

Nothing's that bad.

l'm just so mad, l--

Weren't you having

dinner with Wayne?

Dinner? l never want to see him again.

Let's us go in here, huh?

Now, tell me.

What's the matter?

Dad, l'm through with Wayne.

l never want to see him again

as long as l live. Never.

You mean never until

he calls to apologize.

No, Dad. Never.

Dad, he's--

Wayne went out with another girl.

That horrible Maxine Fort.

Well, honey.

Half a woman's love is faith.

l'm through with Wayne.

l'm through with all men.

l'm never going to marry

as long as l live. Never.

Well, that's rather a large order, honey.

Maybe l'll do social service work.

That's it.

l'll be a settlement worker.

And very commendable too.

But you want to remember, honey,

there's no new sorrow in the world...

...nor a trouble that a lot

of other people couldn't match.

''Emily.

Ever since you were a young bride,

cooking in your first kitchen--''

-Hello, Mother.

-Hello, dear. l didn't hear you come in.

Mother, l want to talk to you.

James, you're in trouble.

Can't l just talk to you

without it being anything special?

Well, what is it?

Mother, the day of the pioneer and

the covered wagon is unfortunately over.

You're not going camping at your age.

No, no, no. Of course not.

l mean, times have changed.

Once we did all our own work.

Once we used horses,

now we have cars.

-lf you've bought another automobile--

-No, no. Certainly not.

l mean, horses were all right in their way,

but cars are better.

Same with housework.

Now we have different stoves--

-lt nearly burned.

-But--

lt's all right, dear. l'm listening.

You were talking about horses.

-l wasn't talking about horses.

-You just said that--

l'm talking about cooks!

-l'll go.

-No, let Milly answer it.

She's probably getting fixed up

for dinner. l'll go.

Good evening.

Telegram for you, Mrs. Hardy.

-For me?

-Yes, ma'am.
