"Very fond of rumpots,
crackpots...
and 'How are you,
Mr. Wilson?"'
"How are you,
Mr. Wilson?"
Who in the encyclopedia
wants to know?
Wilson, let's go. Dr. Chumley,
the screwiest thing just hap...
I know, and believe me, heads
will roll. But I was looking...
Quick, downtown.
Step on it.
Oh. Where's your mother? Where is she?
She took Uncle Elwood out to the
sanitarium. I thought you knew.
She just called me on the phone
at the club. She's hysterical.
Where's your phone? In the library.
What was Mother hysterical about?
I don't know. I couldn't make
out what she was talking about.
She was carrying on something fierce.
Where's the number of that sanitarium?
I'll look it up. I don't know
what Mother had to carry on about.
All she had to do was have Uncle
Elwood locked up. Maybe that's it.
I feel bad about havin' Elwood
locked up. I always liked that boy.
He could've done anything, been anything,
made a place for himself in the community.
And all he did was get a
big rabbit. Yeah, I know.
He's had that rabbit in my office many
a time. I'm old, but I don't miss much.
What's the name of this place?
Chumley's what? Chumley's Rest.
Yeah, Elwood had everything.
Brains, personality and friends.
Men liked him. Women
liked him. I liked him!
Women liked him?
Uncle Elwood? Mother!
Myrtle!
Veta Louise!
What's wrong, girl? I thought
I'd never see either of you again.
Take hold of her. She looks like
she's going to faint. Not so fast.
Don't rush her. Ease her in.
Get me where I can sit down.
There you are. Get her some
tea. Let me sit down somewhere.
You want some tea? Oh,
no. I don't want any tea.
The minute their backs were turned,
I ran like a frightened rabbit.
Oh, I didn't mean to say that!
I don't know what I'm saying.
Just let me sit here. Let me get
my breath. Let her get her breath.
Let me get my breath and then let me get
upstairs to my own bed where I can let go.
Mother,
what happened?
I want you to sue them. They
put me in and let Elwood out.
What's this? As I was going to the
taxi cab to get Elwood's things,
this awful man stepped out, he
was a white slaver, I know he was.
He was wearing one of those white
suits. That's how they advertise.
What did he do? He grabbed hold of
me and took me in there, and he...
Oh!
Go on, Veta. Go on,
Mother. Was he a young man?
Myrtle Mae, perhaps you'd better
leave the room. Now? I should say not.
Go on, Mother.
What'd he do, Veta?
He took me upstairs
and tore my clothes off.
Did you hear that?
Go on, Mother.
And then he dumped me
down in a tub of water.
Oh, for heaven's sake! By
Godfrey, I'll sue them for this!
you were showed in your face.
Don't you believe it, Judge,
Myrtle Mae.
That man grabbed hold of me as
though I was a woman of the streets.
But I fought. I always said that
if a man jumped at me, I'd fight.
Haven't I always said that,
Myrtle Mae?
She's always said that. That's
what Mother's always told me to do.
He hustled me into the sanitarium
and dumped me in that tub of water...
and treated me as though I was a... A what?
A crazy woman. But he
did that just for spite.
Well, I'll be swizzled!
Then one of those doctors...
a lot of questions.
All about sex urges
and all that filthy stuff.
cleaned up, Judge.
You ought to get the authorities
to clean it up.
Don't you ever go out there.
You hear me, Myrtle Mae?
This stinks to high heaven.
By Godfrey, it stinks!
Is that all those doctors do in
places like that, think about sex?
I don't know. Because if it is, they
ought to be ashamed of themselves.
It's all
Why don't they take long
walks in the fresh air?
Judge Gaffney walked everywhere
for years, didn't you, Judge?
Did you? I better take some notes on this.
You said one of the doctors
came up to talk to you?
Yes. Dr. Sanderson. But don't pay
any attention to anything he says.
He's a liar. Close-set
eyes. They're always liars.
Besides, I told him something in
strictest confidence and he blabbed it.
You can't trust anyone!
What did you tell him? What
difference does it make?
I don't want to think about it.
I don't want to talk about it.
Anything you told Dr. Sanderson,
you can tell us.
This is your daughter, and I'm
your lawyer. I know which is which.
I don't want to talk about
it. I want to sue them.
And I want to get upstairs
to my own bed.
Something protects him.
That awful pooka.
Where is Uncle Elwood? How
should I know? They let him go!
They're not interested
in men at places like that.
You ought to know that,
Myrtle Mae. Don't be so naive.
Mother, no matter who jumped at you, we still
have to find Uncle Elwood and lock him up.
The next time,
you take him, Judge.
Oh, wait 'til Elwood hears what they
did to me. He won't stand for it.
You've got to sue them.
Myrtle Mae, I hope that
never, as long as you live,
a man tears the clothes off you
and sets you down in a tub of water.
Oh, there he is now! He's
after me! Stay where you are!
Knock him down, Judge. Kick
him! Don't let him get me!
Veta, please. I want you to
confront this man with your charges.
I don't want no part of that wacky dame.
I'm looking for that other screwball.
He's gotta go back to
Chumley's Rest. Kick him, Judge!
Veta, did you hear that?
Where is he? Where is
this guy, Elwood P. Dowd?
That screwball
with a rabbit.
What's the matter, you goofy too?
You a member of this cockeyed family?
I'm Mrs. Simmons' daughter.
Uncle Elwood is my uncle.
Look, kid, I've been to four fires and
A bartender give me a tip he
was here. Came with a bundle.
Now, where is he? What'd you
do with him? You hidin' him?
No...
I'm not hiding him.
Hey, my name's Marvin
Wilson, honey. What's yours?
Myrtle Mae. And I'm not
afraid of you. Myrtle Mae, huh?
If we grab your uncle, you'll be comin'
to the sanitarium on visitin' days.
Really, I don't know.
If you do, I'll be there.
You will? If you don't see me right
away, stick around. I'll show up.
Won't you sit down?
I got no time, kid.
I gotta find that uncle of yours
and be on my way. Now, where is he?
Where'd you put him? I
didn't put him anywhere.
I want you to catch him just as
much as you want to catch him.
I can't even have any callers
when he's around.
You shouldn't have any trouble about
callers, honey. Thank you very much.
I'll tell you something, Myrt. Yeah?
You not only got a nice build,
but you got something else too.
Really? What?
You got the screwiest uncle that ever
stuck his puss inside our nuthouse.
Would you like
a cup of coffee?
I can't, kid. Dr. Chumley's
checking all the police stations.
I better catch up with him. You look
awfully hungry. How about a sandwich?
Yeah, but I don't want that crazy dame
