Of course she'll do it.

The kid's crazy about me.

She'll do anything I ask.

Oh, hello, Katy. Hold it, colonel.

What water do you see me

climbing out of?

- Why, the English Channel.

- The what?

That little ditch between

France and England.

I told you I was a promoter.

All you gotta do is swim 20 miles

for Liquapep.

- Be right with you, colonel.

- I'm in the milk business.

Honey, when you've seen one cow

you've seen them all.

Get out, see the world.

Find fame and fortune.

- I'm not interested, thank you.

- Wait a minute!

Wait a minute, colonel.

Honey, the London Daily Mail has a race

every year. There's a Women's Division.

And the one who comes in first

gets a big pile of dough. For everybody.

- What makes you think I could win?

- Maybe you won't.

But think of the publicity.

Endorsements, personal appearances.

A doll like you could make a fortune.

A small fortune, that is, colonel.

Somebody leave you some money?

- Her pa came in.

- The man's out of his mind.

- He wants me to swim the English Channel.

- Hey, that sounds like a good idea.

- He likes the idea.

- You must be joking.

You want to buy Sir John of Ralwyn,

don't you?

- Of course, I do, but not by...

- Wait a minute.

- Who is he?

- A bull.

- Think of the farm. Think of the butterfat.

- Now she's thinking of the butterfat.

You could do it, Katy.

Any one of us could do it.

- Do what?

- Swim the English Channel.

Sure, she could do it.

Any daughter of mine could do it.

- Hang up.

- Everybody except Pa. You're too old.

- I am not.

- Yes, you are.

- There's a lot of wind...

- That's her other sister too. What?

My wind is fine.

You'll have to speak louder.

The whole family is...

Wait a minute. I got a better idea.

This thing is the biggest thing ever.

Not only one person will swim, but five.

Yeah, count them.

One, two, three, four, five.

An entire family.

The Liquapep family.

There you are.

All set, boys?

All right, family, move in close.

Hold up your bottles.

Hey, Pa, hold up your bottle.

That's it.

- Everybody, fill your cups.

- Is that the only diet you're on?

Boys, this is the Liquapep family

sampling their sponsor's product.

All right, now, drink.

Hold it.

That's it.

Two, three, four, five, six.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

One, two three, four, five, six.

Let's not dog it. Keep it going, folks.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

One...

Wait till you see the welcome I've rigged up.

Mayor, flags, band, everything.

- Where's Katy?

- Here I am.
