I make it my business
to know, Mrs. Brainard.
And now, little something
to keep the chill off. Oh!
Oh, you mustn't.
Y- You really mustn't.
Oh!
Well, you don't think it's a
little bit too fussy, do you?
Like you've been wearing it
all your life, Mrs. Brainard.
To the manor born.
And here, the finishing touch.
[ Gasps ]
oh, how chic!
I knew you'd like them, Mrs.
Brainard. You look like a queen.
A regular queen. An empress. A goddess.
I do, don't I?
This, as you can see, is a check for one million
dollars made out to the professor and yourself.
One million dollars! Oh,
but, Mr. Hurley, whatever for?
For a kind word, Mrs. Brainard.
Only a kind word.
You know, in a business deal, the
right word from the little woman...
power of a woman. How true.
You really got something
there, Mr. Hurley.
Well, I don't know what Neds
going to say about all this.
For a space-Age scientist,
he's a little bit old-Fa...
- oh, yoo-Hoo, Ned.
Guess who? - Betsy!
Professor Brainard, my name is Hurley. I've
spoken to you on the phone, from new York.
What Id like to do... yes, Mr. Hurley. Betsy,
what is all this, the dogs and that coat?
We can't afford that. Now why don't
we let the little lady enjoy herself?
But the p... professor, Id like
to talk some business with you.
I hope you won't think Im
presumptuous going ahead like this.
Mr. Hurley is a live wire. He likes to
act while other people are still talking.
Just a minute. Who are all
All part of your company:
flubber enterprises.
"Flubber enterprises"? Just a cozy little
company we're putting together, you and I,
To make things
out of flubber.
Professor, when you invented this stuff,
I don't think you dreamed what you had.
It'll touch the lives of every
man, woman and child in the world.
Just like Edison
and the electric light.
Now wait, I... I hardly consider myself
in the same class with Mr. Edison.
Don't be so modest, professor. That's
your trouble. That's where I come in.
Now Ive worked up a few product
sells here just to give you an idea:
...when you brush your
teeth with flubberdent.
And now Ive had our agency boys work up a little
TV campaign... show people what flubber can do.
- Hit them where they live.
- They'll wonder how they got along without it.
Now I don't want you to get the feeling
that we're rushing you. But the thing is...
Howie, roll the film.
Guess what this is.
A million dollars!
Quiet, professor.
But, Betsy...
[ fanfare ]
Hi there.
Rex Williams here.
You know, my friends, down
through the corridors of time,
As mankind has emerged
from the dark ages,
Toiling, ever striving upward,
there have been turning points,
Inspirational milestones, and we
remember the great names of science.
Newton...
and the law of gravity.
Watt...
and the steam engine.
[ Steam whistle
blowing ]
Edison...
and the electric light.
And, my friends,
Brainard... and flubber.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen,
"flubber. "
For it was not too long ago,
That the discovery of flubber
burst upon a waiting world.
That was the beginning.
basketball shoes came more shoes,
Shoes for people
in every walk of life.
But it was not
to stop there.
True, now man had lifted himself
up by his own boot straps.
He could walk with his head
above the crowd.
But this was only
the springboard,
Not only to a vast
new line of products,
But to a happier,
safer way of life.
[ Announcer ] friends,
is your home a booby trap...
the moment you set foot in it?
I'm home, dear.
[ Yells ]
[ Gasps ]
Is your kitchen a savage jungle
teeming with perils and pitfalls?
Dear, where's
the first-Aid k-I-It!
Stop clowning, George.
You'll frighten the b-A-A-By!
In short, is your family
accident prone?
Then, friends, the time has come
to "flubberize" your home.
Transform it from a booby trap
into a love nest.
Make it safe for you
and your loved ones.
Yes, flubberize your home with
hazard-Free flubberoleum floors.
"Flubberoleum," in 16
beautiful decorator colors.
The foamiest, friendliest floor
that ever fondled your family's feet.
I'm home, darling.
Hi.
- Darling!
- Sweetheart!
dum dum de dum dum
dum dum de dum
- Oh!
- I got him! Whee!
[ Laughing ]
[ Cooing ]
Yes, folks,
you'd coo too...
if you belonged
The family
who can say proudly...
they live in the house
with the flubberoleum floors.
[ Baby talk, laughing ]
That's just the start. There are hundreds
of products we haven't even thought of yet.
I'm very impressed, but... fine, fine. Now
if you'll just sign this letter of agreement.
That million-Dollar check is
the evidence of our good faith.
Well, there's just one little
hitch:
I have a prior commitment.A prior commitment?
With who?
The government.
Our government?
That's right.
You just said the magic word. All right,
boys, pack up the gear. The party's over.
I can't tell you how badly I feel, Mr.
Hurley. I do have another idea you might be...
- Forget it.
- You've hurt Mr. Hurley very deeply.
Oh! Oh! He is terribly
disappointed in you, sir.
Oh! Now just a minute. This is
my dress. Oh! I beg your pardon.
If you'd just let me show you some
of the plans I have in my lab...
Mrs. Brainard, the
check, please. Oh, please.
- Do I have to give this back?
- If you don't mind.
- No.
- Betsy, give Mr. Hurley back his check.
I won't!
Betsy! This isn't like you.
Now give him his check.
No! Betsy, give me that check.
Betsy.
Give it to me.
Thank you.
Oh, Im sorry, dear.
I just lost my head
for a moment.
But when you've been fighting
with the grocer all month...
and you find a million
dollars in your hand...
I suppose this half
isn't any good?
Ohh, very nice. Beautiful quality. Yeah.
Professor Brainard?
Yes?
- How do you do? My name is Harker. I'm from Washington.
- From Washington?
- Well, am I glad to see you. Come right in.
- Thank you.
Darling, wonderful news. This is Mr.
Harker. He's here from Washington already.
How perfectly marvelous.
How do you do?
How do you do? It's very nice
to know you, Mrs. Brainard.
May I take your hat and coat,
Mr. Harker? Oh. Thank you.
You and your discovery have certainly created
quite a stir down in our nation's capital.
And you've come about the
payments, huh? You betcha.
You're quite a prize, you know. The boys in
my department drew straws to see who'd get ya.
I'm happy to say I won.
Well, thank you.
Now the thing is, Mr. Harker, we want most
of this money to go to Medfield college.
Oh, but first, of course, we'd like to
pinch off just a tiny bit for ourselves.
Just enough to take care of the household
bills that've been stacking up for months.
All right, dear?
Whatever you say, darling.
I'm afraid you folks
don't understand.
I'm from
Well, if there's one thing we could
