I know what I would say:
I'd say I think the first impression
that I ever had of you was right.
What was that?
I thought you were nuts!
Look. We've got this big football game
with Rutland next saturday, right? Right.
And they're practically
national champs, right? Right.
Suppose we beat Rutland on saturday. Even
my own father couldn't close a college...
that had just clobbered the
national champs, could he?
Ah, biff,
how can we beat Rutland?
Our team is hardly strong enough to
get itself dressed in the morning.
What do you think the suit is
for? Science in action, boy.
I haven't been hangin' around professor
Brainard all semester just for kicks, you know.
What's this thing supposed to do? Knute
Rockne put new ideas into football.
Pop warner put new ideas
into football.
And now, Alonzo Hawk, Jr.
Is gonna do his part.
How does that feel?
Hi, biff.
Hi, prof. Good. You've got the
flubber gas all hooked up, huh?
Just like you asked me to, sir.
Oh, by the way, professor,
I'd like you to meet my
assistant. This is Humphrey hacker.
Oh. Glad to know ya,
Humphrey.
Hi there. He wants
to become a scientist.
Oh, not exactly. What Im really
interested in is animal husbandry.
Oh, humph, I wouldn't let you throw
away your life on a bunch of cows.
Sir, science needs brilliant young minds
like Humphrey. Besides, I needed a volunteer.
Volunteer? For what?
Sir, I hope you won't mind, but Id like
very much to borrow a little flubber gas.
- You see, we've got this football suit here...
- Oh, so that's what it is.
Yes, sir. Humphrey,
come on. Demonstrate.
When we get the flubber gas, it
would come through feed tube "a"...
and inflate
shoulder pad "b. "
Then it would come through
feed tube "c"...
and inflate shoulder pad "d," and
then the leg pads, and so forth.
There's only thing, biff. Flubber gas is
extremely violent, exceptionally powerful.
I don't know how much protection
those pads are going to give you.
Protection, sir? Oh, we're
not thinking about protection.
We're thinking about
offensive power!
Well, look. Just imagine, sir. The
teams line up. The ball is snapped.
I take the ball, and I slam
it into Humphreys stomach.
Bam!
Oof!
Now a whole wave of those big Rutland
gorillas comes pouring in to smash him.
Fearlessly, Humphrey lowers his head. He
charges right into 'em. The flubber gas reacts...
zam! Wham! Kersplunch! Rutland linemen
fall like ten pins in every direction!
Humphrey staggers, but he keeps running. The
Rutland secondary comes in just to smash him!
Boom! Pow!
Pow!
Like water off a
duck's back they bounce.
Humphrey staggers, but he keeps
on running, and he's to the 30.
He's to the 20, the 10! He's over
for a touchdown! Fans are going wild!
Yea, Humphrey! Yea, Medfield! Yea! Yea!
Whaddya think, sir?
Well, if first impressions mean anything,
I, uh... I think you're slightly nuts.
Sir?
I'm sorry, biff.
I was thinking of something someone
very near and dear just said to me.
Don't let me discourage you.
You go right ahead.
Oh, thank you, sir. We'll go
Pick it up. We're gonna eat and sleep this
thing 24 hours a day till we get it whipped.
Let me know if I can
help you. Thank you, sir.
Meantime, Im on a little trash
can... I mean, crash program of my own.
Project weather gun.
Well, here goes.
First, we connect the circuit
with the weather gun.
And we fill the circuit
with flubber gas.
[ Hissing ]
Then we activate the pump...
so the gas flows through
the gun at constant pressure.
Now the flubber gas is violent,
but we need even more violence,
So we stimulate it
electronically.
Yeah.
Now let's see
what we've got.
Hmm. Now let's see.
You know, biff, this stuff is labeled
"dangerous. " Oh, now, humph boy.
Look, would I get you into a situation
unless I knew exactly what I was doing?
Yeah.
That should do it.
That should do it.
[ Laughing ] Ive never
seen them so worked up.
When I bombard a cloud with a beam like
this, it just has to lead to clustering...
in turn, leading to a transfer
of particle momentum...
And the inevitable consequence:
precipitation... rain all over the place.
Now for a cloud.
Not a cloud in the sky.
Not one single cloud.
Wouldn't ya know it?
Well, what have we here?
Range:
about 30 feet.Switch on.
Ready. Aim.
Fire.
[ Thundering ]
It works!
Charlie Brainard!
Betsy. Betsy.
I did it! I did it!
You did? That's right, sweetheart,
and that's only the beginning.
The next time, Im going
It's a result of my fooling around with
the molecular configuration of flubber gas.
I'll get a mop and clean
it up. Oh, never mind.
Ned, Ive had enough
for one day.
All I ask of you is to get dressed for
dinner. Company will be here at 7:00.
Whatever you say, dear.
[ Chuckles ]
your way they bring the flowers...
Well, who's going to be here for
dinner, Betsy? Didn't I tell you, dear?
No, I don't think you did.
Who's going to be here?
Now, I don't want you to be upset.
Betsy, who's coming to dinner?
If there's one thing Im certain
you're not, it's narrow-Minded. Betsy,
I would like to know
who's coming to dinner.
It isn't as though he were
coming all by himself.
Besides, he was such a good sport about
our getting married. You don't mean...
I don't see one single reason
why we can't all be good friends.
We're adults, you know, not children.
You don't for one single minute mean...
that dear, sweet, kind,
thoughtful...
double-Crossing, miserable,
four-Flushing snake...
[ both ]
Shelby Ashton!
Betsy, I think you'll agree
that Im a very patient man,
But old flame or not, if that no-Good rat
sets one grubby paw inside this house, Ill...
Ned, if you raise one hand...
[ door buzzer ]
I'll get it.
Nuzzie! Oh.
Evening, professor. Hello, Betsy
dear. It's wonderful to... who is that?
As soon as they unglue themselves, Id
like you to meet an old friend of Neds:
- Desiree de la Roche.
- Now wait a minute. I don't know any...
holy cats!
It's Mary Lee Spooner!
Of course it is, nuzzie
darling. I'll be darned.
I knew you were vague, lover, but I didn't
think you were that vague. I'll be doggone.
- Betsy, do you know who this is?
- No, "nuzzie. " Who is it?
It's Mary lee Spooner.
You said that before. Somehow or
another, I didn't get much out of it.
You must've heard me
talk about her.
Mary lee and I used to go together, didn't
we? It was long before I met you, Betsy.
By gosh, Mary lee, you've changed. What's
all this desiree de la whatever it is?
Well, Ive been married here
and there, and, uh,
I picked up a name or two
since I left Medfield.
And Ive just been living in
Paris all this time. In Paris?
Didn't you know that? I didn't know
that. I wondered what happened to ya.
Gosh, we used to have the times,
didn't we, Mary lee?
Betsy, there was one time
when Mary lee and I...
