zzip... zzip...
in front of me.
No, huh?
Uh-uh.
Now I know
I am alone.
Keep your eye
on that candle.
Now, if we take Route 16
right out the front door...
that's the route
that's out there...
we could get in somebody's car
and sort of zzip.
Ch... Ch... Ch...
Ch... Ch... Ch...
Chuck! Chuck!
Yes? Wait!
Wait a minute.
What's going
on here?
Calm down
for a minute.
All right.
Wait a minute.
I understand.
Hold still a minute.
Take it easy.
That candle moved?
Camille, did you see that candle move? No!
Where were you looking? There.
What are you lookin' there for?
You told me to look at that.
Don't believe me. I'm a liar. Now, now.
What is this all about?
This is nonsense.
It's very peculiar nonsense.
There's nothing peculiar about it.
Sit down. I left
the doctor alone.
Take it easy.
Don't get excited.
You have company. You're
not alone. No, not much.
Just calm down.
Look...
keep one eye
on that candle...
another eye
on that one...
and with the other eye,
watch me.
What was that?
Those candles went out.
Do you feel a draft? No.
you will.
I'll get out of here
so fast...
along with me.
I can't even read the map
any... anymore.
This is no laughing matter.
I'm scared.
Keep your hands to yourself.
Don't slap me.
I didn't slap you.
If we can...
You didn't slap me?
No.
Now, if we can...
Ferdie.
Don't do that, Ferdie.
You're a nice boy.
I don't like to see you do
those things so cut it out.
What did I do? You know
what you did. You slapped me.
Now... And you're
supposed to be a boy scout.
I didn't slap you, Camille.
Yes you did, Ferdie!
Did you slap me?
Uh-uh.
Did you slap
me? Uh-uh. Uh-oh!
Oh, Chuck. Oh, Chuck! Aaah!
- Aaah.!
- Oh, Chuck.
I've got you,
you old ghost!
I'm gonna lift up your sheet
and see who you really are.
What happened?
What's wrong?
What's
going on here?
What's going on? And
that's what I want to know!
I almost had a ghost
and Camille got in the way.
I better see
if Norma's all right.
I wish I knew why someone's anxious
to keep people away from this tavern.
Must be
Moose's bankroll.
Moose is supposed to have
buried his bankroll.
Around this tavern?
The only thing they heard Moose say
was that he kept his money in his head.
Hey, Chuck,
you mean in that thing?
What thing? That horse with a hat rack.
When I said, "Moose kept the money in
his head," that's just a figure of speech.
Oh, a figure of speech! You
know what a figure of speech is?
Everybody knows that.
What is it?
It's like if I said
"Water went under the bridge. "
- Under what bridge?
- How do I know what bridge.
Then how do you know
the boats can go up and down.
Suppose they want
to go across?
- I'm a sucker for arguing.
- Why do you start?
You asked me if I knew
I said, "Just like if I said,
water went under the bridge. "
I shoulda said like
"Gone with the wind. "
What wind?
Am I gonna have trouble
with you now?
What do I know "what wind"?
Any wind!
I didn't find the detectives
but we better get out.
Are you ready?
In a moment.
I'm sorry if I kept you
waiting. That's all right.
You're angry at me. No. That's ridiculous.
You're angry at me
because you like me.
But you do like me
a bit.
Don't you feel a little
safer when I'm around?
Doctor, whenever I have
to turn to you for protection...
Aaah!
Darling,
are you hurt?
No, dear.
Dear,
you called me darling.
Darling,
you called me dear.
We shouldn't be
standing here.
We should be out trying
to find the detectives.
I've been talking to you
all this time and still...
you haven't explained why you should
even say "Gone with the wind. "
It was a
figure of speech...
just like...
"Never the twain shall meet. "
What twain?
The twain
on "twack twee. "
What's the use? I'd like to know
what started this whole argument!
You said there was money
in the moose's head.
Would it make you happier
if I proved...
that there's no money up there? Go ahead.
Give me a chair.
I'll prove it to you.
Ooo.!
You got a big head.
I'm gonna put my hand
in your mouth.
Don't bite it!
This one's going in,
the one I eat with.
I got a way
with animals.
Take it easy.
Hope you ain't ticklish.
Hey, Chuck,
the moose's tongue is peeling.
Sure, peeling.
It's...
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.!
What is this?
I don't know.
Wait a minute.
It's real.!
Keep peeling. Let go of my pants.
Atta boy, Ferdie! Stop pulling my pants.
C'mon, c'mon. Hey,
Chuck, let go of my pants.
This guy's got some
tongue. Get the tongue out.
Camille?
Huh?
Does "mooses"
have tonsils?
I hope that one's got
a big one, a green one.
Look at that tonsil!
What a tonsil!
- C'mon, keep it peeling.
- Get my hand out!
Never mind your hand. Somebody, help!
I'll never
join your lodge!
Never mind your arm. We'll buy
you a new one. I'm gonna faint.
Let go!
Ooo, you!
I hope you two are satisfied
that there's no money...
in the moose's head.
Argue with me. No more
arguments. Ferdie, I love you!
He loves me!
Thousands, millions,
trillions! Millions? Trillions?
I'd love to run through
that with my bare feet.
Say, Ferdie, look. Look.
What's that? That's what you
got out of the moose's head.
I told you there was no
money... Don't get excited.
I know how you feel.
We've got to find
those detectives.
What have you got? $10
bills. Thousands of'em.
Where on earth?
In the moose's head.
You have no idea what we're gonna
do with this money. But I have.
No, you haven't. You're gonna hand it over.
All right,
stick 'em up!
I've been hunting
that dough for weeks.
Finders is keepers.
And I'm the keeper!
I didn't work for Moose Matson for 15
years to let someone else get the gravy.
We don't want the gravy. You
can have it. Put that down!
Look out!
I've got him!
You've got me.
Get him.
Drag him out. I'm always left
Look what you did to
the guy. Throw him out.
That was
a close one.
Did you let him
have it!
We are "Sitting on top
of the world. "
- That's a figure of speech.
- Like "Reach for the ceiling. "
finding this sugar for us.
All right,
hand it over.
C'mon, fatty!
He means you.
Ooo!
Fatty!
I lost 43 pounds...
since I've been
in the place.
Run, Ferdie!
Run, Ferdie!
Go, Ferdie.!
Come out of there
or I'll let you have it.
Charlie Smith.
He come back again.
Look out
for that body.
Now which way did he go?
He's takin' off down there.
- He's not down here.
C'mon!
Ow! Ow!
Oh! Oh!
Catch it.
Get him.!
Excuse me.
Throw me the bag.
You want it? Yes, throw it over.
Aaah!
Beat it!
The cops!
Ferdie!
Did I scare 'em?
My hero! You scared
those gangsters.
And he did it
single-handed.
Oh boy. C'mon, put it down. Money!
Put it back in the bag. This is ours.
