Thanks.
Hello, Bill.
Hi, Babe.
How you been? You look
Wait a minute.
You sure got that quick enough.
There you are, Josh.
That's married life for you.
Yeah, isn't
that beautiful?
If the world was run right,
Yeah.
Hey, could they
do that?
Get a load of that!
You break your arm? I haven't
heard from you in 3 months!
I've been very busy. You've
been busy. I can imagine.
Dewey!
He got bigger.
What did you think
he'd get? Littler?
Mom, look. Here's Pop
squeezing a hula dancer.
Give me that.
You were busy, huh?
Wait till I get you home.
Come on, push Dewey.
Ow!
Well, Mr. Ace Lannigan,
let that be a lesson to you.
A lesson to me?
Yeah.
If they lined up all
those movie queens...
and let them wave those long
eyelashes at me, know what I'd do? Huh?
Toss them right
at them. Oh-ho-ho.
I can brush them off like flies. Oh, yes.
Which of you is Ace Lannigan? That's me.
- Know a gal named Cherry?
- Cherry?
No. Sure you do. That's
the little blonde...
Sure,
I know Cherry.
Brilliant
conversationalist.
How's she doing'?
She's getting' married.
Well, what do you know.
Great kid... Cherry.
So little Cherry's
getting' married!
Yeah, she wants you
to come to the wedding'.
If I'm around.
Who's she marrying?
- You!
- She couldn't have picked a...
Me?
Can I be an usher?
There must be some mistake. All
I did was take her to a movie.
Yeah, and kept her out
half the night!
Can I help it if there's
double features? Can he help...
Come on. You're going' with us. All right.
I'm going' with them. Oh,
you're going' with them.
I'm going' with them.
Oh.
Patty-cake, patty-cake,
baker's man.
Bake a cake
as fast as you can.
This sort of thing
has got to stop...
Spreading the Mallon name
all over the newspapers!
in a waterfront brawl!
more disgraceful in my life!
It's not as bad as that.
Take it easy, Skipper.
All right, O'Keefe.
Yes, sir.
You seem to think the world
is a three-ring circus...
and all you've got to do
is run around and have fun.
What's wrong with that? The world
won't let you, that's what's wrong.
You mean the Mallons won't
let me. Won't let you what?
What are we
keeping you from doing?
Skipper, you've been singing'
this song at me for years.
Eventually you're
going to trap me.
But you can't blame me for
holding out as long as I can.
Look here, Josh, I'd like
to sit on a coral reef...
and play a ukulele,
but we're Mallons.
to build up this business...
and it's my duty and yours
to carry on.
We've got stockholders, customers,
ships all over the world.
What's wrong with one of
You've dodged your
responsibilities long enough.
You're taking over the maintenance
department, office hours nine to five.
Oh, no. I'm not going to wind up
back of that desk like you,
pushing buttons, growling
and barking at everybody.
That's not for me, Dad.
I want to be one of the boys.
I want to be a regular guy. A regular guy?
The poor house is
full of regular guys!
You're going to accept
your responsibility...
just like I did
from my father,
and just like he did
from his father.
The old captain... the fellow
He was a man! Only had one
ship too! And we've got 80.
Let's sell 79, take the other,
sail around, have some laughs.
Don't be ridiculous.
