 Well, well, well, here's Mama Bloom's brood. Oh, it's evening, and in front of Mama and Papa Bloom's Hollywood apartment, we find Mama, Papa, and Sarah and Sydney. Papa's just getting ready to get into the car when Sarah says. Paul, why don't you let Sydney drive? What for? Did I forget how to drive Sarah? Well, no, but we're in a hurry. Sure, Pa, you drive too slow. See, Sydney, Papa may drive slow, but when we stop to go someplace, we are always being sure that we'll be getting there altogether. Let Papa drive. Oh, but he takes so long getting through traffic. Get in, get in, and don't argue, or maybe you'd like to walk, huh? Oh, all right. Come on, Sid. Yeah, Sydney, I'll get you back with Sarah. If you sit in the front seat, the Papa would be a high-gym. Okay, okay. Move over, honey. Don't move. Honey, he calls it. Sydney, wait until you're married. For 25 years, you won't even bother to say anything. You'll just get in the car. Papa, don't be talking like that. All right, all right, Mama. Get in. Gee, hurry up. You missed the first show. Don't they have two shows at night? But we want to get home early because of the twins. That's right, Papa. Well, why don't you start the car? I can't find the key. You got the key in your pants pocket. I put it there. And what were you doing in my pocket? Looking for a letter I gave you to mail. And did you find it? No, no, I didn't find it in your pants pocket. Sure not. You know why? Because I mailed it. I found it in your hat. You put it in your hat so you wouldn't be forgetting to mail it. So you put your hat on, you didn't take it off for a whole day. Goodness, Pa, haven't you found the key yet? No, no, I ain't. Papa, you're very foolish. You know that you're not able to get anything out of your pocket while you're sitting in the car. Why not? Once you tried it and then you couldn't get your hand back out of the pocket. What's the delay? Shut up, I've got to get out of the car. Oh, gee. We'll never make the first show. Why is it that every time we start to go someplace, we've got to wait half an hour before we even get off the street we live on. Sarah, you know the old advoid by switching pimes saves mine. That's wrong. Well, don't argue about it. Sarah, don't make me nervous, please. Can you find it, Papa? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was right in this pocket. Uh-huh. Maybe we should have walked. Sydney, will you shut up before I... Papa, don't be a rock snake. All right. All right, I've got the key. Then let's go. Oh, wait a minute. I've got to get back in the car and maybe you think the car will drive itself, huh? See, here you and Sydney talk, Sarah. You think we've got to get to the show right under that. You know something? The show's going to be there all the time. Yeah, Papa. Yeah, but we're wanting to see it tonight. Get our movie on. You... All right, all right, all right. You know something? And we all go together, especially with Sydney here. By the time we get started someplace, I'm a nervous wreck. Say, Pa, go over Beekman Place and then you can cut around the Boulevard and miss all the traffic. Only one minute left and already is telling me which way to go. Sydney, Papa, are you an athlete? You mean Atlas more, I guess. I don't mean Atlas. Atlas is the man who had a big ball on his shoulders. I saw a statue, I haven't seen one. So why should you argue about it? Who's having an argument, Papa? Honest to hear you talk, you think that they like to hug you. Sydney lives on it. What's the corner for? All right. I'll stay here all night and watch the corner for you. If you'll take the right turn, Pa, you'll cut off about 10 minutes. Who's wanting to cut off 10 minutes? What would we be doing for that if we had it? Go straight, Papa. Turn off. Go straight. Turn off. Go straight. Everybody is driving the car but me. That's the sweet, Papa. You're looking at me. Am I a road map? I'm telling you, if you take the right turn, you'll cut off about 10 minutes, Pa. Why don't you do it, Pa? We want to get there in time for the first show. Maybe you're better, Papa. I've already passed the right turn. So I'm going straight ahead. Okay. I just thought I was being of some help. You could help by being quiet. What's the turn now, Pa? You'll be on the main Boulevard in a minute. I know it, Sarah. I know it. That is exactly where I want to be on the main Boulevard. And this is wonderful. Papa starts off not knowing where he's going, but in one minute he's on the right trick. Maybe it's his unconscious mind-voicing. Subconscious. Sarah, I know what I said. There you are, Pa. There I am. What? There? On the Boulevard. If you'd gone over Bakeman Place, you could have cut off this strip. Could have... Look, Mama likes to see the lights along the Boulevard. I do not. Mama, don't you ever stick up for me. Why should I be telling fibbers? I don't... Oh, look, Sarah. Look at the pretty sharpies. You better drive faster, Pa. You'll save money. Sitting there for once in your life, you're talking some sense. Papa, Papa, slow down. You're coming through our red light. It'll change before I'm coming through. Better watch it, Pa. You don't want to get a ticket. It'll change before I'm coming through. It's still red. I can see it. Then why don't you stop? Who's driving? I don't know now. Oh, watch out! I bumped my head on the windshield. Why do you think I am a shock absorber? Well, Mama, I... I thought the light was going to change. You talk now. Go ahead. Go ahead. Stop. Go ahead. Stop. You think I was a traffic signal myself? All right, Che. Call right. We will drive along and nobody will be saying even one little word to you. If you want to kill yourself, you should be thinking of somebody else. Yes. Right on the next turn, Pa. There he goes again. Sidney. Sidney, please tell me something. Ain't there no left hand points in all of Hollywood? You're out of Hollywood now. So soon? Are they going on a tourist? If you hurry, we can still make the first show. We'll be in time for the road bill. Sure, sure. Papa, step in it. On it. I mean, go ahead. I am. Should I be driving to 15 cars that are in front of me? You almost did. You turn right here, Pa. Shouldn't need to keep you quiet. I'll turn right. He thinks he's a Bondi Goldpoink. Boy, what are you trying to do, Pa? What? I'm trying to get to the theater for the first show. So I should be having some peace. What is peace about scaring us out of our bigs? We're small. Be quiet. I'm nervous. I have to help Papa drive. Now, just turn to the left, Pa, and you'll run right into a parking lot next to the theater. All right. All right. All right. So I will turn left. See? There's the theater. Sidney was right. Oh, that's different. Who was right? We're going to a show, and so we got here. Maybe we could be going all the way around and still be getting here. Okay, Pa. Pull in here, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I know, I know. There you talk. You think I was never in the city before. See? I stopped it over myself. Now, uh, you run ahead with Ma and Sally, Pa. I'll pay the man here. Papa, isn't that nice? Sidney's treating you. I am suspicious. Papa, never look a horse into teeth. Well, let's walk ahead. Come on, Ma, walk with me. Yeah. Well, Ma, am I going to walk with? With Sidney. Why do I always get hit? Well, come on. Let's go. We'll have to wait in line if we don't get there. Okay, let's go. Sidney, run ahead and get the ticket. I'm going to the lobby. Same. What's the matter? Is Sidney sick or something? Why is he being so nice? There you go again, Papa. Maybe Sidney wants to treat you. Why, sure. Uh-huh, uh-huh. He's coming back again. I'll say Pa, I, uh, I left my wallet at home. Can you lend me five in the Lamora? Five. I knew it. I knew it. All right. Yeah. Five, huh? Five. Five. Please, Pa. Thanks. I'll meet you in the wallet. Yeah, you said that before. Then you came back and borrowed five dollars. It's seven o'clock. A stage show should just be going on. Yeah. Okay. We're all set. All set. Well, uh, Sidney, don't I, uh, get any change from five dollars? Well, I might want to buy you some ice cream or something after the show. You might want to buy out... Very nice of you, Sidney. That's okay, Pa. Ain't it lovely? Well, go ahead, Ma. Pa, I got the ticket. Uh-huh. I'm just in time. The stage show is just starting. May I see your seat checks, please? Yeah. Here they are. How far down, please? All the way. I forgot my glasses. This way, please. Papa, what's the man on the stage doing? How do I know, Mama? I just got in. Will this be all right? No, no. I can't sit from here. If you get down front any further, you'll be on the stage. Hey, hurry on. This act is a magician. You should be up there with him. You start out from your house with nothing in your pockets, and you end up with five dollars. Is this all right? Yeah, yeah. This is very lovely. Thank you, Osherette. Shh. Osher. Yeah, yeah. I know. I'm silly. Osherette is Osher's wife. How's your wife? Ma. Get in. Excuse us, please. Papa? Papa. Please sit. Wait, wait, wait. This seat's up to little for me. Sit next to me, Papa, and you can let your hell dip most hand virtuous. No, no. Hey, this is a good act. And? How, making a mistake in the world. I know. I didn't see anything, yet. Mama, be quiet. Mama, be quiet. Hey, blue-眼, gentlemen, I should like the assistance of someone from the audience for the next experiment. Someone who will be kind enough to help me. Anyone at all? What's the matter? Can he do it by himself? Shh. Please. Papa, Papa, you go, huh? Are you crazy? Go ahead, Papa. Look, I see tricks all day. Why should I help them do it at night? I assure you that the experiment is harmless and entirely unembarrassing. Anyone may come up, please, anyone? I am going. You stay here. Oh, you can't go more. Why not? She said, anybody. Ain't I anybody? I'm going. I'm leaving. You will wait here for me. Excuse me, please. Thank you, madam. Thank you. Right up the runway, I'll help you. I'm coming. Thank you, madam. Now, if you'll be kind enough to step this way, please. Madam, do you know anything of the powers of hypnosis? I didn't get what you said. Do you know anything at all of hypnotism? If it's something to eat, Papa would know it. Madam, would you object if I placed you for the short space of three minutes under an hypnotic spell? Under a bath, please. I shall render you oblivious to pain, to sensations of any kind. You're a jerk, huh? I assure you, madam, you shall succumb to no harm. Now, look me in the eyes. So you are going to sleep. But for I ain't sleepy. Madam, I want you to concentrate on sleep. Think of it and look into my eyes. I am, but I ain't think nothing. You are feeling drowsy. No, I ain't. Please concentrate, madam, please. I am, but I ain't sleepy. You see, that's me. Ladies and gentlemen, my subject is a little difficult, so I ask your indulgence for a few moments. Please, madam, concentrate. You are growing drowsy. Drowsier. I ain't feeling even a little bit sleepy. Open to my eyes, please, madam, please. You are feeling very drowsy. Your eyelids are heavy. That's just because I'm not wearing my glasses. They always look that way. You are going to sleep. Later, maybe, but I want to see the show now. Madam, this is part of the show. Will you please concentrate? You are feeling drowsier, drowsier, sleepier. Your eyelids are getting heavy. Heavier, you are falling under the spell. You cannot keep awake. Pardon me, that's a threat. You are going to sleep. You cannot keep awake. You are getting drowsier. Madam, what are you laughing at? Mr. I ain't a bit sleepy, but look at Papa. He's sleeping already.
