(audience laughs) - you didn't hear me complain either, miss walker. - [jerry] uh-huh, you liked it. - the world needs love. - see ya at the shop. (guitar music) - ah, good evening! - a friend of jerry rodgers, instructor in the art department. thinks the world needs love. (audience laughs) hi, honey. - [anne] hi, daddy. - you cats sticking around for dinner? - [anne] uh-uh, we just stopped by to give you some wonderful news. - don't tell me you are switching your major from psychology to folk dancing? - (mumbling) the old hostility with humor. - just tell me the good news. - we found a school for gidget. - i didn't know she was looking for one. (audience laughs) - [anne] daddy, wait till you hear. ohn] you remember me telling you about my friend marot? claude marot, the exchange student? well, anyway, it turns out that his father runs this exclusive girls school in paris. - and he said that with your being a college professor and all, he's sure that he could arrange a full scholarship for gidget. how about that? - your daughter ends up in one of the finest schools in europe and all you're out is the price of a plane ticket. - isn't that incredible? very well in a school 10 minutes away by bus. (audience laughs) - dad, a young girl needs more than just history and math in this life. it's every bit as important to have social poise. you think the queen of england can do calculus? - possibly not, but somehow i don't visualize francie in the role. - [anne] really, it's nothing personal, but gidget should be given the chance to become a proper young lady. - who isn't a proper young lady? - hi, honey. . - again? - tell her the good news. - gidget, darling -- - the answer is no. every time she starts a sentence with gidget darling i know i'm in trouble. - all i'm trying to tell you is that we've arranged for you to go to a fabulous girls school in guess where. - outer mongolia. - no, paris. - we don't have an extradition treaty with outer mongolia. (audience laughs) - mmm. - this is a school, gidget, that specializes and above all, poised and highly sophisticated. - who isn't sophisticated? - [anne] anyone who ever needed this school. oh, daddy, look at her! she hasn't a shred of feminine dignity. - have you ever tried to have feminine dignity while you're chewing bubble gum? (audience laughs) - then why do you chew it? - well i don't like the other kind. - oh, this discussion is pointless. - now you're reading my mind. - come on, anne, we're wasting our time here. - good thinking, john. bye now! (audience laughs) - my car needed work and jerry gave me a lift. - mmm, well that explains it. he hardly ever travels alone. (russ chuckles) well, i'll be down in a little while to fix you some nibbles and goodies. (cheerful music) - what's the matter? my slip showing? - in a freudian manner of speaking, it is. as a field trip to a small sanitarium. - you reached me. come on, anne, a prophet's never honored in his own country. - i am happy to honor you as a son-in-law. why do ya have to be a prophet? - you know what i mean! if a professional therapist were to say it, you'd pay very serious attention. and you should. symbiosis is a very serious matter. - can all this be translated into english? (audience laughs) - john is of the opinion -- - i don't need an interpreter. if your daughter were to attend this school. but you're afraid to let her go to france. - afraid for her or afraid for the french? (russ chuckles) - for yourself. you've grown to depend on her so much your subconscious refuses to release her. - me dependent on that bubble gum addict? (audience laughs) - aren't you waiting for her to come down and fix you your nightly nibbles and goodies? - well if she doesn't, i'll fix it myself. - and cook your own meals, and mend your own socks, and bring yourself your paper and slippers? - i have a friend who has a cocker spaniel that does that - i think they're working on it. (audience laughs) what is all this? - well, john thinks -- - i think that as long as you've got gidget, you'll never remarry. and then in about 20 years we'll have the classic spectacle of an elderly parent with a dried-up spinster daughter still fixing your meals and rubbing your back. that's symbiosis. - that's bologna. (audience laughs) - well there's nothing wrong with paris, as long as i don't have to be there. okay, talk to ya later. the father figure just came in. und and mrs. freud left yet? - yeah. - is paris definitely out? - definitely. - whee! (audience laughs) - we're doing alright. come on, let's go downstairs. - as far as i'm concerned, you are father of the year. - not to hear john talk. - well who listens to john anyway? if he had any class, he'd turn himself in. (audience laughs) oh, i'll get your slippers. i have an idea. (audience laughs) - but, dad, you never fix dinner. - [russ] i cooked more dinners than i can remember. now you just take it easy and leave everything to me. - okay, but it's beef stew and ya have to use the pressure cooker. it's up there on the top shelf and it's heavy. - [russ] oh, fine, i see it. (audience laughs) (crash) - [russ] francie! oh, the big part caught me right about there. - i'll get it. - no, no, wait a minute, i'll get it. - well ya can't rub your own back. i've gotta do it for you. (audience laughs) - [john] and then in about 20 years we'll have the classic spectacle - francie! i have something to tell you. - he's sending me to paris! - oh no! - oh yes! holy pierre. from now on, my life is gonna be in subtitles. (audience laughs) - right, and put some meat in the bun. the last time the fbi couldn't have found the hamburger under that cheese. (audience laughs) - hey, what do you want? - gidge. - [gidget] huh? - [waiter] what do ya want? - i wanna know why he's sending me to paris. (audience laughs) - give her what we ordered. gidget, why don't you stop trying to figure out your father? - yeah, i stopped trying to figure my father out years ago. now i let him try and figure me out. and then (snaps) just like that he makes a switch. right in the middle of a massage no less. (audience laughs) - why don't ya have another talk with him, gidge? - howie's right. just tell him ya don't wanna go. be honest. - wrong. parents are not equipped to handle honesty. (audience laughs) - if i only knew why he was sending me away, i could reason with him. i wonder what made him change his mind? - what do you mean now i gotta live it up? - [jerry] that's right, professor. with gidget away, you're no longer trapped, and i've -- i am not sending francie away because i feel trapped. if anything, it's just the reverse. - well, either way. with gidget in europe, i'm dedicating myself to the proposition that you shall not suffer from a lack of companionship and entertainment. follow me? - you've got this all figured out, haven't ya? - well now the one thing we bachelors have to fight is loneliness. - [russ] i don't think i'm gonna be all that lonely. - of course. i lost my head. anne will be here and you can spend your evenings having laughs with that fun-loving husband of hers. (audience laughs) - wait a minute, i've got the solution! - [russ] for what? - your whole problem. - [russ] i didn't know i had one. - now look, with gidget gone, you're gonna be (mumbling) around this whole house by yourself, right? - well ... - and scholarship or not, you're bound to be hit by a lot of added expenses, right? - i suppose. - well, then we've got the whole thing licked. i'll move in. (audience laughs) - just a minute, jerry. - now, don't misunderstand me. no freeloading. we'll split everything down the middle, including the mortgage payments. now ya can't knock that. - well that's very generous of you, but -- - [jerry] what? generous? nt to see ya have some fun, have some laughs, live it up a little. - well that's very nice of you to take such an active interest in little old me. - you know, i don't come empty-handed. - i didn't expect a dowry. - no, i'll put my stereo set right over here so that the sound drifts over to the fireplace. that should do it. then i'll send for my electrician and install the dimmer right about over here. - install the dimmer? - oh, you'll love it. you kinda reach over, turn the little knob, - in that corner. (doorbell) - that must be pat. - pat whom? - pat taylor. didn't i tell you about pat? - no. - you play your cards right, she'll fix it up with one of her model friends. - i don't want her to fix it up with one of her model friends. - oh, you will when you find out what she models. (audience laughs) honey! - hi, jerry! - russ, pat taylor. i'd like you to meet my new roommate, russ lawrence. - oh, i've heard so much about you. - jerry, why, this is a marvelous room. i mean it. it's got such possibilities. - she has quite a flair for interior decorating. great taste. - ya know, that corner needs something. - i thought we'd put my wine rack over there. - oh no, your wine rack can go over there. i mean this corner gets the afternoon sun. - what did i tell ya? isn't she beautiful? - and ya know what else ya need? some bright colored pillows. give the place a little warmth. chids. - i told ya he had a sense of humor. - oh, he's divine. aren't ya going to show me the patio?

(audience laughs) - gung-ho years? - well i do feel as vigorous as i ever did. - so gather your rosebuds while you may, right? - all you need is to be shown where the rosebuds bloom. that'll be my pleasure. - [jerry] what did i tell ya, buddy boy? from now on it won't be just living, it'll be la dolce vita. ave known. at last, the mystery's solved. he's getting rid of me so he can have his freedom? we women are such fools. no man wants a 15-and-a-half-year-old albatross around his neck when he can have la dolce vita. i'm going to be big about this. chin up, smile upon my face, and above all, be gay. bonjour mes amis! that's "hello, friends" in french. - who are you calling, gar?on? my name's irving. what's your order? - do you have frog's legs? - no, i'd say they're more like bird's legs. that's why i couldn't make the football team. (audience laughs) - i'll have a hot dog. - [irving] right. - he's so bourgeois. - what's with the french kick? - i guess if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. - au contraire, i can't wait to get to paris.

(gidget chuckles) - oh, don't worry, daddy. i'm sure you'll have a marvelous time. well, i better go upstairs and finish packing. - i'd like to talk to you. - sure, daddy. - it's very important. - what is it? - i'd like to know how you really feel about this venture. - i feel fine. i mean, i think it's a good idea for both of us. especially me. i mean, i'll never get another chance like this, will i? and if i don't take it and make the most of it, what kind of a dope would i be? - you mean you really want to go? now? i mean, i knew that at first you didn't. - absolutely. nothing could stop me. - why'd you say you thought it was a good idea for both of us? - because it is. it just is. (gidget sobs) oh, i'm sorry daddy. i just get all sloppy when people go away. even me. you don't really think this is a good idea at all. - [gidget] i do, i really do. all these years you've been fenced in raising me and you could've been off somewhere having a good time. what have you gotten out of it? nothing. - everything. raising you is the most interesting - live? what do you think i've been doing all of these years? what kind of a chance are you talking about? chance for what?

(laughter) then i thought about it a while and i realized that she had to be some kind of a nut. i mean no offense dad, you know what i mean, just some kind of a wiggo. then third time around i say to myself, "now hold on man. i mean, maybe there's something there. i mean who tells this new line of kids that you don't have to buy everything in that great, big package they hand you when you grow up?" - i know what you mean. when i was back at college, they tried to shut down the the football games. talk about your protest. - yeah huh, you really racked them up huh? - oh yes sir, pushed them right back to the wall. even got them to put in 2 sizes of orange drinks. - hey good man, good man. - we were pushing for more too but, football season ended. - hard line. killed you on the grape drinks huh? - if they knew, they'd been in a fight. dad, i'm kind of like a hammer. you know? everybody listens, you dig? - i dig. - no, you accept too fast. you know john, you fought the good fight, right? all i need is a shave and a haircut, and a drip-dry suit and dad here would buy me too. - a finish too. the day that guys like you, look at me and say, "well there's a nice clean cut young man. " i think i'll go out and buy a few records, "to take home to the kiddies." well that day it's fallback man and i am dead. you know, you and i are never going to find each other man. - great. - aren't you going to change? - man, i'm as changed as i'm ever going to be. (laughter) - let it be recorded that operation awake had begun. - the hammer's here! come on! - tremendous forces had been unleashed that could not be quelled.
