The Caddy Page #4

Synopsis: The origin of Anthony and Miller, a wildly successful comedy team, can be traced back several years to Harvey Miller's stage fright on the golf links. Although the son of a skilled golfer and an outstanding player in his one right, Miller is too nervous to golf in front of a gallery. He becomes coach and caddy for Joe Anthony, his girlfriend's brother, who must convince his fisherman father that hitting a little ball into a hole can be more lucrative than trawling the Pacific Ocean. While on the PGA tour, their natural comedic abilities are recognized by a shrewd agent who senses their talent and potential, and a new comedy team is born.

You were having a little fun, Skinhead.

Skinhead... Yes.

It's a different story now.

The shoe's on the other foot.

All right,

you had your chance then, Baxter.

- Now, Miller!

- Mr. Baxter!

Oh, I'm sorry.

You look just like a rhinoceros.

Wait, I did it and I'll fix it.

Here.

Miller.

- One second, Mr. Baxter.

- Yeah.

- Miller, Miller, Miller.

- No, it's all right.

No, I got it. Now, just... That's fine.

Miller.

- I'm going to get it now.

- Miller.

Here it comes, Mr. Baxter. All right.

We got it, didn't we?

That wasn't so hard, now, was it?

Mr. Baxter!

Got off those skates! Miller!

Come back here.

Now, listen, Miller...

Miller, that's not funny.

Miller!

Get off of there, Miller! Get off of there!

Not the China Department!

Not in the China Department!

It's all right, Mr. Baxter.

I won't hit anything!

Miller.

I'm sorry, Mr. Baxter!

- Mr. Baxter?

- Yes?

- I'd like to give my two weeks' notice.

- Well, that will be...

Get out.

Get out.

- Harvey.

- Yeah?

Where's that winning smile?

Come on, let's see that dimple.

No, I'm no good for anything, Lisa.

I'll never smile again.

Harvey Miller, is that any way to talk?

It's the only way I know how.

Look, all great men

have had to go through bad times.

You've read about them in books.

Then when you're famous,

why you'll... You'll look back and laugh.

Ha, ha, ha.

Just say I'm no good for anything.

I let you down.

- Go ahead.

- Okay.

Harvey Miller,

you're no good for anything.

You've let me down.

Gee, it sounds awful when you say it.

I wish my brother Joe was here.

He's had a lot of experience in business

and he could help you find yourself.

I ain't even lookin' for myself.

All I know is golf.

And I sure wish I could forget it.

- Hey.

- What?

Why forget it?

- Huh?

- Teach it.

Why, with all you know about golf,

you'd be a cinch to open a school.

You can stand people one at a time,

can't you?

Yeah.

Gee, that's a good idea, Lisa.

Boy, if I ever amount to anything,

you'll be the woman behind the man

that made the man behind the gun

who loved the woman behind the man

behind the gun.

I got carried away.

- Goodnight, Harvey.

- Goodnight, Lisa.

Goodnight, Lisa.

You know what?

The first thing in the morning,

I'm gonna get organized.

Goodnight, Lisa.

Goodnight, Harvey.

Mama reserved the church for February,

but she can postpone it again.

Maybe she won't...

Maybe she won't have to.

Once I get my school started...

- That's right, Harvey.

- Uh-huh!

Goodnight, Harvey.

Goodnight.

Excuse me.

I got carried away again.

Thanks a lot, pal.

Don't make too much noise.

Don't want to wake the folks.

I haven't been home in years.
