- You? Me too.
Hey, Ted, look who's here.
Your Uncle Sam.
- I haven't any Uncle Sam.
- We all have an Uncle Sam.
Did you forget to register for the draft?
It can't be income tax - we had none.
- This is for you, Mr Scott.
- A subpoena server!
If you had your life to live over again,
don't do it.
- That Brooklyn dame must've believed you.
- Open it.
Here. You open it.
It's from the lmmigration Department.
They're giving you a refugee.
- A what?
- A refugee.
- A little baby.
- That publicity stunt you cooked up for us.
Almost got us ajob.
Remember the play Winchell gave it?
"Dartmouth Troubadours
to adopt a little refugee tot."
- It arrives on the George Washington.
- What'll we do with it?
Don't look at me.
You signed the application.
Just because I'm the only guy that had a pen,
you're not gonna shove this off on me.
Besides, we don't need publicity now.
We'll tell 'em we don't want the baby.
You can't. You're responsible -
says so here.
Then we'll find it a place to live
and all chip in...
Wait. What'll Winchell say?
He gave us a big build-up
about sharing our laughter and tears
with a little refugee.
What'll he say
if he finds out we tied a can to it?
You can't keep him from knowing -
not even when you're gonna have a baby.
- Figure it out.
- You figure it out.
- Didn't you tell me you wanna be a father?
- Yeah, but I wanna do it my way.
(man) Number 23.
- 23? That's us, dear.
- You wait here, honey.
- Number 23, officer.
- Right here, sir.
- Hello, sonny.
- God dag.
Welcome to America.
This is great. Nothing pulls publicity
like a baby or a dog. Look at that.
Betty Jean,
this is your new brother, Charles.
- Hello.
- Isn't he sweet?
- You gotta admit that's pretty cute.
- (man) Number 36.
Where's the paper? Suppose
he called our number and we muffed it?
- What number did he say?
- Number 36.
Bingo!
Boys, get ready with the introduction.
Come on, you guys, get the cameras set.
(jolly tune)
- Here you are, number 36. Where is it?
- Right here.
(music falters / flat bass note)
- 36? That must be her chest measurement.
- Give me that.
I said I'd take a child, I didn't say I'd take a...
Well, she's too big for her age.
Is that your signature?
She's a refugee like the rest,
and here you guarantee to take care of her
and that she'll not become a public charge.
She's your responsibility now, mister.
Young lady.
She's your responsibility now, mister.
Young lady.
This gentleman is your sponsor.
- How are you?
- How do you do?
Hold it. Let's see more of your face, Scott.
- That's the way we greet friends in Norway.
- What a country! My name is Jerome K Allen.
