- And then...
- I know.
- The spots.
- The spots.
- Maybe some other time, Trudy.
- I'd be glad to, Norval.
Good night, Trudy.
You forgot your needles.
It really doesn't matter.
I haven't got a phonograph, anyway.
What are you looking at?
You wasn't thinking
of getting married, was you?
At 14?
to the corner and having a soda.
I don't mean what you were thinking about
right now, I mean generally.
- Generally, yes.
- "Generally, yes" what?
Generally yes, I think about marriage.
What else do you think I think about?
- You do, do you?
- Anybody can think about it, can't they?
It doesn't cost anything to think about it.
It's only when you do it that it costs $2.
What costs $2?
You seem to know a great deal
about a subject far beyond your years.
- Like it says here in the paper...
- That's your subject, Papa.
You introduced it.
If you don't like it, ignore it.
Tell your sister
the house ain't paid for, will you?
She knows that, Papa.
You tell her every day.
Every day ain't enough.
What's she doing up there, anyway?
- Getting ready for the party.
- Getting ready for what party?
The dance, Papa.
You've got to kiss the boys goodbye.
It's a farewell party. A military affair.
- Good night, Papa.
- Just a moment!
What is this military
kiss-the-boys-goodbye business...
and where is it to be transacted?
Just like they always do,
in the church basement...
then the country club
and then kind of... Like that.
- Like what?
- That's all.
- Good night, Papa.
- Just a minute!
- What happens after the country club?
- Then they bring you home.
Yeah, by way of Cincinnati
with a side trip through Detroit!
I was a soldier, too, in the last war.
But, Papa, I've already promised
and I'm all dressed up.
You can go get undressed.
It says here in the paper...
But, Papa...
People aren't as evil-minded as they
used to be when you were a soldier, Papa.
When I want any advice out of you,
I'll ask for it.
- And you'll get it.
- Yeah?
I wish Mama was here.
So do I, believe me.
But she ain't. Daughters.
So, as your father and mother combined...
I'm here to tell you that
you ain't going on no more military parties.
Read what it says here in the paper!
If you don't mind my mentioning it, Father,
I think you have a mind like a swamp.
What!
- Aren't you going out tonight?
- No, ma'am.
I thought you were going to the picture.
I thought I would,
and then I figured I wouldn't.
Isn't there a dance or something tonight?
For the soldiers.
I'm sorry, Norval.
If they don't want me, they don't want me.
Couldn't the doctor
give you something to calm you?
Just long enough for the examination,
