After you finish flying
thejet ship for the children,
bring them back
to the orphanage.
Then cut the lawn and water the
plants. All right, Miss Pliny.
All right, gang.
Keep your eye on the jet plane.
Orville, do you know
how a jet works?
Of course! I know how a jet plane
works and rocket ships and spaceships.
How does
a spaceship work?
Sure. A spaceship?
A spaceship.
First, you've got to have
a lot of space. And then...
You want me to learn you
how to spin a top?
How does
a spaceship work?
Spaceship. All you do is
pull a string and away it goes!
Nonsense! Anyone who
has studied nuclear physics...
knows its engine operates
according to thermodynamic laws,
using a working fluid ofliquid
hydrogen as a propellant.
This is accelerated and
expelled by a nuclear reactor,
enriched largely by the use
of a fissible U-235 isotope,
giving the necessary thrust
to the interplanetary mission.
Do we make
ourselves clear?
Sure. Just like I said, pull a string
and away it goes. Like that.
Now,
that's right around the corner...
Cheese it! The cop!
Oh, it's that
Orville again!
A spaceship!
Hey.
How'd you get here?
I sneaked
into your truck.
What are you doing? I'm drawing pictures
of the spaceship, so I can show the gang.
The gang? A spy, huh?
What's your name? Orville.
Orville. Where're you from? The Hideaway.
The Hideaway! That does it! I'm
taking you to see Dr. Wilson. Come on!
May I see your
identification, please?
I am Dr. Orvilla.
I want to see Dr. Wilson.
Just a moment.
Dr. Wilson's office.
Miss Howe speaking.
Send him in, please.
Come in.
Beautiful, isn't it? I think
frightening's a better word.
Don't tell me you wouldn't like
to spend your honeymoon on Mars?
I'll settle for Niagara Falls.
Dr. Orvilla's on his way in.
I'm anxious to get the meeting
started. How about the newspapers?
They're still insistent on a press
release. Tell them we're not ready yet.
Will you stop
pushing me?
Push me once more,
I'm gonna haul off and...
Have you had enough? Come on!
Whoo! Whoo!
Where's the Doc? In the conference room.
Call him up. Tell him I caught a
spy. His name's Orville. Orville?
You mean Dr. Orvilla.
He isn't a spy.
Dr. Wilson's been waiting for you. For me?
He didn't want to start
the meeting without you, Doctor.
I'm, I'm no doctor.
I know.
You're listed in Who's Who
as a professor of aeronautical science.
Lester, tell Dr. Wilson
Dr. Orvilla's here.
All right, but someone's
making a terrible mistake.
Professor of
aeronautical science.
What makes a balloon go up? Hot air?
What's keeping you down? Ha-ha.
Hey, who are you?
I am Dr. Orvilla.
Oh, that's all right.
Uh, wait a minute!
For your information, I just left
Dr. Orville in Dr. Wilson's office.
For your information, Dr.
Orvilla standing right-a here!
Wait. I just left Dr. Orville.
He's short, fat and dumb.
I am Dr. Orvilla. The only
people is-a dumb is-a you.
We'll let Dr. Wilson decide
that. Come on. I walk-a by myself.
Dr. Wilson
will be right in.
Eek!
There you are.
There's Dr. Orvilla! How dare you
tell-a the people you're Dr. Orvilla!
I didn't tell them.
They told me.
You told a big lie. I didn't
tell a lie. They told a lie.
I'm Orville.
See, Orville.
He don't even know
how to say the name.
The name is Orvilla. No, Orville!
Ma questo e'propio pazzo. You
mind hold-a this, please? No, sir.
The name is Orvilla.
I don't go for that kind
of stuff. Now cut it out.
My name is Orville. Che
ti possono mangiare.!
I'm-a gonna give you
a maccharone.!
Ooh.
The name is Orvilla!
