Brothers, Sons of the Desert.
We are all familiar with the business of
this special meeting.
This oasis must meet the situation
with determination.
Oooh!
Thank you.
I repeat. This oasis must face
the situation with determination.
Every man must be accounted for.
Every man must do his part.
There must be no weaklings in our midst.
We must put our very hearts and souls
into this great undertaking.
There must be no thought of failure.
We must stand shoulder to shoulder.
We must work, we must sacrifice.
The weak must be helped by the strong.
For gentlemen, this, the oldest lodge
in the Great Order of the Sons of the Desert
must be represented 100%
at our annual convention in Chicago next week.
We will now take the oath.
And remember:
once taken,this oath has never been broken by any man,
down through the centuries of time,
in the history of this fraternal organisation.
If any member is doubtful of his strength
to keep this solemn pledge,
he will please be seated.
Get up!
- I don't want to...
- Shh!
Place yourself in position to receive the oath.
Do you all swear to be present
at our 87th annual convention in Chicago?
(ALL):
I do!Me, too.
Wholeheartedly unanimous.
# We are the Sons of the Desert
# Having the time of our lives
# Marching along 10,000 strong
# Ta ta, my sweetheart and wife,
God bless them
# Tramp, tramp, tramp
the boys are marching
# As a unit melody
(ALL HUM)
# The Sons of the Desert are we.
- Why didn't you want to take the oath?
- I was afraid.
Afraid of what?
I was afraid that if I took the oath to go to the
convention, maybe my wife wouldn't let me go.
Of course she'll let you go.
Why, she'll have to let you go.
- You took an oath!
- I know. That's what I'm worrying about.
The Exhausted Ruler said that if you took an oath,
it would have to be broken for generations
of centuries of hundreds of years.
- My wife wouldn't...
- Do you have to ask your wife everything?
If I didn't ask her,
I wouldn't know what she wanted me to do.
- Hm!
- I didn't want...
such a deplorable condition existed in your home.
Why don't you pattern your life after mine?
I go places and do things and then tell my wife.
Every man should be the king in his own castle!

Now, buck up. Go in
and tell her that you're going to the convention.
Be a man. I'll see you in the morning.
- Good night.
- (HARDY):
Good night.- Ollie, dear.
- Yes, sugar?
- Is Stanley with you?
- He just went in the house.
You'd better tell him that Betty went
duck-hunting and won't get back until late.
Alrighty.
- (BETTY):
Oliver?- Yes, baby?
Please close the door.
There's an awful draught in here.
What do you want?
How did you get in there?
I was looking for Betty
and came in the back way. I thought...
Betty has gone duck-hunting
and won't be home until late.
- Oh. Well, good night.
- Good night.
What?
Do you realise that you have locked me out?
Why don't you ring the bell?
She'll let you in.
Don't get nervous. She'll be here in a minute.
Where do you think I live?
What do you think this is? Halloween?
Come in here, you bad boy.
Come on!
- What do you want?
