Why?

It would be very difficult

to explain to you.

And I'm sure it would take

too much time.

- Come on, Melvin.

- All right, all right.

- You're coming along with us, honey?

- Oh, Father, really.

Why, if I walked in there with my parents

I'd be the laughingstock.

How do you like that?

Well, maybe we had better

wear a disguise.

Oh, Father.

Sometimes I think

you don't understand a thing about women.

It's time you and Gramps

had a heart-to-heart talk.

You wait for Oogie, dear,

and make a grand entrance.

- Have a good time.

I will.

Goodbye, son.

So long.

Maybe I should have worn a girdle.

What do you got to hold in?

Oh, Randolph.

Judy...

...if I didn't know better I'd swear

your grandmother was standing there.

Why, she used to wear a pink dress

just like that.

While you're waiting,

would you do your old Gramps a favor?

Of course, Gramps.

Your favorite?

Through the years

I'll take my place beside you

Smiling through the years

Through your tears

I keep my place beside you

Smiling through your tears

- I'll be near

- I'll be near

- No matter when or where

- No matter when or where

Remember

What is mine I'll always share

I'll come to you

Smiling through

The years

Thank you, darling, that was nice.

Telephones,

ought to be a law against them.

It's the doorbell, Gramps.

Will you get it? I can make an entrance.

- You look mighty pretty, Miss Judy.

Thanks, Nightingale.

Now, Judy?

Now, Gramps.

- Evening, Oogie.

- I'm not Oogie. I'm Jo-Jo.

Oh, Jo-Jo, come in.

- Jo-Jo's here, Judy.

- Jo-Jo?

- What are you doing here?

- I came to take you to the dance.

What?

- Where's Oogie?

- He's busy.

Busy?

You mean...

You mean, he expects me, Judy Foster...

...to go to the high school closing dance

with a mere child?

- An infant, a half-pint?

- I'm taking vitamins.

Oogie can't do this to me.

I won't stand for it.

- You mean, you don't wanna go with me?

- No, I don't.

Can I go now?

Why... Why, how dare you.

You should be thrilled to have a date

with an older woman.

Thrilled, she says.

I've got to use this phone.

It's an emergency.

So is this. I'm trying to borrow

Peewee Finnegan's electric worm finder.

Oh, Randolph.

- Randolph, give me that phone.

- Four bits and it's yours.

Of all the mercenary, money-grabbing...

Hello, Peewee?

- Evening, Judy.

- Hello, Pop.

Mr. Pringle?

This is to inform you that our friendship,

as of tonight, is dissolved.

You can have your class pin back.

And I'm sending at my earliest convenience

your 12 boogie-woogie records.

Is anything wrong?

Why do men always say,

"Is anything wrong?"

Yes, somebody came for me.

Jo-Jo Hoffenpepper indeed.

Why didn't you just send a midget?
