00:00You have a date with the angel starring Betty White
00:25Bill Williams as Gus Angel, presented by Plymouth, star of The Forward Look, and the Plymouth Dealers of America.
00:42The time, six months after Vicki and Gus Angel were married. The main character, Gus's former girlfriend. The plot, oh boy.
00:55That's where the trouble was, George. His claim was filed under the letter F.
01:03F? For Phillips?
01:09Yes? To see me? I don't know any Mrs. Sanderson.
01:17Dee Dee Meeks? We'll send her in.
01:20Well, I'll be darned. The girl I went with back in high school.
01:26How much not to say anything to Vicki?
01:28Vicki knows all about her.
01:30Well, you'll need me around here. Don't be silly.
01:35Dee Dee!
01:37Boy, do you look good.
01:39The right hairdo, the right dye, it doesn't look good.
01:41Well, I don't know what it is, but you sure...
01:43Oh, excuse me. Uh, Miss... Mrs. Sanderson, this is my good friend George Clemson.
01:47How do you do? Well, I'm just in the way.
01:50Oh, stick around. How did you find me after all these years?
01:53Well, when Jack and I flew in this morning, uh, that's my husband, we ran into Fred Brenner.
01:57No kidding.
01:58Uh-huh, at the airport. So the first thing I asked for was you, and he told me you were in the insurance business.
02:03Whatever happened to archeology?
02:05Well, you know how those things go. So, uh, Fred told you about me.
02:08Uh-huh. Wait, uh. Don't go.
02:12Oh, you two go ahead, Reverend Ness. I don't even know Freddy.
02:15Yes.
02:20So, uh, Brenner told you where to find me, huh?
02:22Uh, not really. He sent me to the wrong building. I've been looking for you for an hour.
02:26I, uh, kind of thought we'd have lunch together.
02:29Oh, we've already had lunch. Say, how about dinner at my place? I'd love to have you meet my wife.
02:34Yes, Freddy did mention you had a cute wife.
02:37She's a dreamboat. How about you and your husband having dinner with us tonight?
02:40Well, I'd like to, but Jack may be working till late. I...
02:43Then you come. Maybe he can come over later.
02:47All right, but after dinner. Too short notice even for a dreamboat wife.
02:52Besides, food would interfere with talking. We have a lot of things to catch up on, guys.
02:57Oh, will you look at this time? I have to go.
03:01Bye, George.
03:02Bye.
03:06Bye, Dee Dee.
03:09Gus.
03:11Buddy, you have just done the dumbest thing you will ever do.
03:15Inviting Dee Dee over?
03:17Not Dee Dee. Boo-boo.
03:21Oh, come off it, George. Vicki knows all about her.
03:24And besides, what's wrong with inviting over an old friend to talk over old times?
03:27Gus, you're trying to be practical and talk about women at the same time.
03:30The two just don't mix.
03:33Vicki's different.
03:34Well, she is.
03:35Vicki knows I love her and she knows all I actually did was date old Dee Dee a couple of times.
03:40Old Dee Dee?
03:42Gus, you just don't invite ex-girlfriends over to meet your wife.
03:48They can't take it, boy.
03:49If you don't believe me, just take a good look at Vicki's face when you march in with old Dee Dee.
03:56How do you know so much about her?
03:58Sit back, old buddy.
04:00I want to tell you a horrible story.
04:02When I was married four or five months like you, I ran across an old girlfriend of mine, Rose Martin.
04:11All wide-eyed and innocent, I brought her home to meet Wilma.
04:15The two of them smiled at each other.
04:18And Gus, they never stopped smiling.
04:22It was like their jaws were locked.
04:25And through the smiles came the most terrible remarks.
04:28Like Rose would say, George always drank his coffee black when he was going with me.
04:32And Wilma would hit her with, that's because he had no taste in those days.
04:40Gus, I'm telling you, it was terrible.
04:42Finally, still smiling, Wilma threw Rose right out of the house.
04:50I'll prove to you that Vicki's different.
04:52Oh, sure.
04:53Listen, Gus, to this day, we've never had a Rose in our garden.
04:56I'm not kidding you, we've never been to the Rose Parade.
04:58Aw.
04:59No, I'm telling you.
05:01Around the house, I have to sing my wild Irish chrysanthemum.
05:07Hi, Vicki.
05:08Hello, darling.
05:09Say hello for me.
05:11Wilma says hello. What's up?
05:13Guess who's coming over tonight.
05:15Who?
05:16Dee Dee Meeks.
05:21Honey, Vicki.
05:24Sweetheart.
05:25I told you, she's gone to get the gun.
05:29Honey, it's all right, isn't it?
05:32Of course, that's fine.
05:34I knew you'd say that.
05:37She said it would be fine.
05:39Honey, Dee Dee doesn't want you to go to any trouble,
05:41so she's coming over after dinner, which I thought was pretty considerate.
05:48Vicki, don't you?
05:50Gee, I thought Dee Dee was married.
05:52She's married.
05:53She is.
05:54She just got into town with her husband and he's working late or something.
05:57Now, don't go to any trouble.
05:58Just pick up a coffee cake or...
06:00Wait a minute, better than that.
06:02You know what she used to love?
06:05Those French pastry things.
06:07What do you call them?
06:08Napoleon's.
06:09All right.
06:11Wonderful.
06:12Well, I got work to do, sweetheart.
06:14Goodbye, Vicki.
06:16What did I tell you?
06:17Tickle to death.
06:24Bad news?
06:26Not really.
06:28Gus is bringing a girl he used to go with home for a visit.
06:32Oh, I've known about her, of course.
06:34Her name's Diane Meeks.
06:36Gus says she and her husband are in town and they looked him up.
06:40Of course, what could poor Gus do but invite them over?
06:44He could have not invited them over.
06:48You can't do that to people.
06:50Besides...
06:52Wilma, he went with her for almost a year.
06:55So?
06:57That's longer than we've been married.
07:01If her husband has to work late, that means she'll be here alone.
07:04What am I going to say to her?
07:07Peaky, honey, Gus married you, not Diane.
07:11He wants to show you off.
07:12Well, I took it as a compliment when George brought Rose home.
07:19Rose?
07:21Rose Martin.
07:23George was actually engaged to her at one time.
07:25Anyway, he brought her home and we had a lovely evening.
07:31What did you talk about?
07:33General subjects like coffee.
07:35Coffee?
07:36As I recall, she went home early.
07:42It's just a matter of being adult about the whole thing, Vicki.
07:48I guess so.
07:50Well, of course it is.
07:52After all, we're not naive.
07:53We know the fellas went with other girls before they met us.
07:56What's this Diane look like?
07:59Nice looking, I guess.
08:00I don't...
08:03She's probably in Gus's high school annual.
08:06Get it.
08:07I ran across it one day when I was cleaning his closet.
08:11Here it is.
08:14Diane Meeks.
08:15Diane Meeks.
08:16Oh, look at that hairdo.
08:17She looks like a sheepdog.
08:18Pretty eyes.
08:20Don't you think?
08:21Mm-hmm.
08:23Big bone girl, though.
08:24Look at that round face.
08:25Oh, here it is.
08:28Meeks.
08:29Diane Meeks.
08:33Oh, look at that hairdo.
08:36She looks like a sheepdog.
08:40Pretty eyes.
08:42Don't you think?
08:44Mm-hmm.
08:45Big bone girl, though.
08:48Look at that round face.
08:50Bet she's had to fight fat all her life.
08:52Listen to this.
08:56Valedictorian honor student.
08:58For knowledge, she is greedy.
09:00If you're searching for brains, straight A's and such,
09:03you'll find them, yes, in Dee Dee.
09:08Her nickname's Dee Dee.
09:11Sounds to me like she's all brain.
09:14I don't know.
09:16Gus went with her for almost a year.
09:18And I know Gus.
09:19Oh.
09:21Vicki, I went with a guy for three semesters
09:23and I don't even remember his name.
09:26Really?
09:27Sure.
09:28Fella called Johnny Stilwell.
09:33Let's see what she wrote to Gus.
09:36Here.
09:39No guess is as good as mine, Dee Dee.
09:44No guess is as good as mine?
09:46What does that mean?
09:48Who knows?
09:49Those things you wrote in high school annuals
09:51never made any sense anyway.
09:54There was one in mine I always loved.
09:56To Vicki,
09:57the most antiseptic girl in bacteriology three.
10:03Honey, I've got to run.
10:05Well, I guess it's not so bad if she's a brainy type.
10:08The other kind I was worried about.
10:10Well, you look nice.
10:12So do you.
10:12I picked up some cigarettes for her.
10:13Good.
10:14You know, I'm really looking forward to tonight.
10:15I'm glad, because I...
10:17Boy, do you look terrific.
10:20Wait till Dee Dee sees you.
10:21You're a very satisfactory husband.
10:23You know, aside from the honor student stuff,
10:24you haven't told me very much about her.
10:25She's nice.
10:26No, I mean, what did you find attractive about her?
10:27Who analyzes that kind of stuff when you're in high school?
10:31But I'll tell you this much.
10:32Alongside of you, she fades right into the wallpaper.
10:34Well, we mustn't let her fade into the wallpaper.
10:35I want her to have a good time.
10:36I just hope it isn't good for you.
10:37You'll be the best at the time.
10:38You're a great time.
10:40You're a very satisfactory husband.
10:41You know, aside from the honor student stuff,
10:42you haven't told me very much about her.
10:43She's nice.
10:44No, I mean, what did you find attractive about her?
10:45Who analyzes that kind of stuff when you're in high school?
10:47But I'll tell you this much.
10:50Alongside of you, she fades right into the wallpaper.
10:54Well, we mustn't let her fade into the wallpaper.
10:56I want her to have a good time.
10:59I just hope it isn't boring for you.
11:02Oh, it won't be.
11:04I can picture the whole evening right now.
11:11Yes, I can picture the whole evening right now.
11:15I've never seen her, but I can picture Dee Dee right now.
11:19It's awfully nice of you to have me over like this, Mrs. Angel.
11:23Oh, not Mrs. Angel. Vicky!
11:26Ah, now I see what August was raving about when he told me about you.
11:32Oh, well, he's a little prejudiced.
11:36Dee Dee, here he is.
11:38Hello, Dee Dee. I'm glad you could make it tonight.
11:40Oh, it's nice to be here, August.
11:42Boy, do you look terrific.
11:45Now, I want one thing understood right from the beginning.
11:48We're all adults, and I know that you and August have a lot of memories to share.
11:52I want you to pretend that I'm not even here.
11:55We wouldn't think of doing such a rude thing, Mrs. Angel.
11:58Vicky!
12:00Now, there's nothing wrong with reminiscing.
12:03After all, every one of us went with several people in high school.
12:07I didn't.
12:09Well, then you and August have that many more memories to share.
12:12I'll get the Napoleon.
12:14Napoleon, August told you.
12:17Now, here's the Centralian, and there are plenty of cigarettes.
12:22Have fun.
12:24We shouldn't.
12:26She means every word of it.
12:28No wonder you talk about her so much.
12:30I can't help it.
12:32Oh, there it is.
12:35And there's Mr. Miller.
12:39The original square root.
12:41Here we are.
12:45Oh, don't spoil me, darling.
12:51Dee Dee.
12:53There you go.
12:56Did I hear you two talking about algebra?
12:58I spent all of my time helping August with his homework.
13:01Oh, now, surely you two found time for something besides algebra.
13:06Well, yes, we...
13:08I thought so.
13:10I helped him with his geometry, too.
13:14My folks used to give me a party if I came home with a C average.
13:18Everything you've done tonight has been so...
13:21so adult.
13:23Mr. Dane.
13:25Vicky, I'm having a wonderful time.
13:29So am I, Dee Dee.
13:32Would you get that, sweetheart?
13:35Never mind, I'll get it.
13:37Dee Dee.
13:39Oh, for my very night, I thought I'd never get here.
13:40Guess what you forgot today.
13:41What?
13:42Your address.
13:43Oh, no.
13:44I had to call the office and get it from George.
13:45You know something funny, Gus?
13:46I don't think you wanted me to have it, but I said...
13:48Now, look.
13:50This must be your address.
13:52Oh, no.
13:53I had to call the office and get it from George.
13:55You know something funny, Gus?
13:56I don't think you wanted me to have it, but I said...
13:58Now, look.
13:59This must be your wife.
14:02I'm not usually this rude, but it's so good to see this guy.
14:06Hello, Dee Dee, I'm...
14:07I like her already, Gus.
14:09I knew you would.
14:11Of course.
14:13So this is...
14:17Vicky.
14:18Vicky.
14:20Why didn't you tell me about her, Gus?
14:22Freddie was right.
14:23She's cute.
14:24I told you.
14:25I told you.
14:26Oh, here.
14:27Let me put that in the other room for you.
14:28Oh, Gus will get it.
14:30As they say in Mandalay.
14:32As they say in Mandalay.
14:33I'd forgotten about that!
14:34I'm sorry.
14:35Your husband couldn't come with you.
14:36Oh, he'll be by later.
14:37I love your house.
14:38The bank loves it, too.
14:39Gus never could have done this on archaeology.
14:40Archaeology?
14:41Oh, didn't you know?
14:42Gus always wanted to be an archaeologist.
14:43But to tell you the truth...
14:44Vicky.
14:45Vicky.
14:46Vicky.
14:47Vicky.
14:48I did the right thing.
14:49Yes, I always say,
14:52Oh, Gus never could have done this on archaeology.
14:56Archaeology?
14:58Oh, didn't you know?
15:00Gus always wanted to be an archaeologist.
15:02But to tell you the truth...
15:04Uh, Vicki.
15:06Vicki!
15:08You did the right thing.
15:10Yes, I always say what a man has always wanted to do
15:13and what makes a woman comfortable are two different things.
15:16Yes, you certainly did the right thing, Vic.
15:18How's Emery?
15:19Oh, Dad? He's fine.
15:21How are you two getting along?
15:23Well, now I want one thing understood.
15:26We're all adults and I know that you and Gus have a lot of memories to share.
15:30I want you to pretend I'm not even here.
15:33Wonderful!
15:39We don't want to bore you, honey.
15:41Nonsense!
15:43There's nothing wrong with reminiscing.
15:45After all, every one of us went with several people in high school.
15:49Gus didn't.
15:54I'll put on some coffee.
15:58Now, here's the Centralian.
15:59And here's the cigarettes.
16:02Hurry back!
16:09Come back!
16:10You should leave her alone, Gus.
16:20The letter doesn't work.
16:22Swell girl, huh?
16:23Swell.
16:24She thinks you're the greatest.
16:26Swell.
16:27You're a little quiet, sweetheart.
16:31Hope you're not bored.
16:32Gus!
16:33I'm coming!
16:34Sure I can't help you, Vicki?
16:36Oh.
16:42There's the girls' swimming team.
16:43Oh, there I am, see?
16:46Can you look at those babies?
16:47Oh, those were the days, huh?
16:49Oh, yeah.
16:50I bet you still can't do the Weeping Willow like up at the beach.
16:53The heck I can't.
16:54All right, come on.
16:55Let's see you try.
16:56And then...
16:57Oh, not here, Dee Dee.
16:58I feel silly.
16:59Oh, you're just saying that because you know you can't lift me anymore.
17:02Come on.
17:03I'll just show you who can't lift you anymore.
17:05Oh, wait.
17:06Now, take it easy.
17:07I don't have...
17:08I'm not that old.
17:09I'll just...
17:10Oh, Gus!
17:11Oh, Gus!
17:12Oh, Gus!
17:13Don't worry!
17:14Oh, yes!
17:21Honey, this is called the Weeping Willow.
17:24Don't be so smug.
17:25I weigh 101 pounds, purse and all.
17:28Oh!
17:29Oh, too bad we can't do the overhead handstand.
17:31If she had on a bathing suit, you'd really see something.
17:34I bet you never showed Vicki, don't you?
17:38Show Vicki our Weeping Willow?
17:39Uh-huh.
17:40No.
17:41My purse weighs 40 pounds by itself.
17:45Oh, Gus will get that, Gus.
17:47Oh.
17:48What a big elf you are!
17:51Oh!
17:54What are those?
17:55They look delicious.
17:56Napoleon's.
17:57I thought they were your favorite.
17:59Well, they may have been once, but...
18:01Ooh, I wouldn't dare.
18:02You eat mine.
18:07Sure.
18:08What difference does it make?
18:10Vicki's lucky.
18:11She always looks like that.
18:12She eats like a horse.
18:17How about that?
18:19How about that?
18:20How about that?
18:21You remember?
18:22How about that?
18:23Old Frenchie.
18:24With the red hat.
18:25I'll never forget it.
18:26Wait.
18:27Cream, Dee Dee?
18:28No.
18:29Not so fast.
18:33The Algebra Club.
18:34How do I ever make that, Gus?
18:36Oh.
18:37There's your graduation picture.
18:38Oh, let's see what I wrote.
18:39No Gus is as good as mine.
18:43Get her napkin, Gus.
18:44I didn't spill it.
18:45There's who Vicki looks like.
18:46Who?
18:47Maybe a little.
18:48A little?
18:49Exactly.
18:50Look.
18:51Same eyes, same build.
18:55Oh, Vicki, she was wonderful.
19:11Who's this, darling?
19:13Old lady Andrews.
19:16Gus tells me you were quite an honor student, Dee Dee.
19:17Gus tells me you were quite an honor student, Dee Dee.
19:21You can't imagine how I envy anybody with a real intellectual capacity.
19:26That's it, all right.
19:28She's bigger than Vicki.
19:29Oh, no, Gus.
19:30She just seems bigger.
19:32Because Vicki has that wonderful knack a lot of taller girls have.
19:36She looks comfortable in her clothes.
19:39Now, why can't I think of something nice like that to say to you?
19:45Because...
19:46Oh, it's old A.D. Andrews.
19:48Your gym teacher.
19:50How did you know?
19:54I'll tell you what I would like.
19:55If it wouldn't be too much trouble now, I'd like a slice of Melba toast.
20:00All right.
20:01Oh, Gus will get it.
20:03I'll get it.
20:06Hurry back.
20:07I wear 101 pounds personal.
20:20She's cute.
20:23Is there a mandalay?
20:24Oh, what's the matter with you, kid?
20:34You eat like a horse, reach like a horse.
20:43You taller girls look so comfortable on your ladders.
20:46Well, you're up there, and you can trim the weeping willow.
20:53Oh, come on, old lady Andrews.
20:55Tear the top off.
20:59And this is the kitchen.
21:00Oh.
21:00Vicki gave this place three heavy coats of enamel all by herself.
21:06No brush.
21:08I finger-painted it.
21:13Oh, be careful, guys.
21:16Well, that's nothing.
21:17You should see him with a sack of cement.
21:20See him.
21:21Him see.
21:23Help me see him.
21:24Oh, Mr. That...
21:27Tell Vicki about that.
21:28I will.
21:30What's out there?
21:32It's the service porch.
21:33It leads to the patio.
21:34Come on, let's go.
21:35Look.
21:35Oh, Vicki, never mind the toes, honey.
21:38I already dragged my coffee.
21:40Uh, turn to the right.
21:41I'll be right there.
21:43I'll be right there.
21:51Honey, look what time it is.
21:54That's right.
21:55She's been alone a good five seconds.
21:58I mean, shouldn't her husband be here by now?
22:02Do you think that would make any difference to her?
22:05Honey, you're going to hate me for saying this.
22:08Go on.
22:09I wish she'd go home.
22:10Isn't that a nasty thing to say?
22:22Uh-oh.
22:24Honey, she's still in high school.
22:26I'm afraid I've outgrown those kind of things.
22:30Besides, alongside of you.
22:33Gus, there's no light out there.
22:35I'll take care of it.
22:36Right into the wallpaper.
22:39What?
22:40Uh, just a private joke.
22:41Uh-huh.
22:42Oh.
22:55Hi.
22:55Hello.
22:57I'm Jack Sanderson.
22:58Oh, I'm Vicki Angel.
22:59Come on in.
23:00Thank you very much.
23:02Diane's getting the 50-cent sword.
23:04Oh, Jack.
23:06You're early.
23:07As a matter of fact, I'm a little late.
23:09How are you, honey?
23:11And this must be Gus.
23:13Honey, this is Dee Dee's husband, Jack.
23:15Well, I've certainly heard a lot about you through the years.
23:18I, uh, I kind of got the impression that you were a seven-foot blonde Apollo.
23:25Welcome back to the human race.
23:28Is there some coffee?
23:30Oh, I'd love to.
23:31Oh, now, honey, you haven't been eating any of those, have you?
23:35Did everything come out all right downtown?
23:37Nashie?
23:38No.
23:39Oh, good.
23:40You don't know what I go through with the chin straps and reducing creams every time she goes off her diet.
23:46Between that and the hair curler, she looks like an aluminum porcupine.
23:52You said we had to go.
23:54I didn't, but we do.
23:56You, uh, you seem kind of quiet.
23:59Is everything all right?
24:01I'm fine.
24:02Good.
24:02I'll get you a wrap.
24:03Oh, thanks very much.
24:04Thanks.
24:07You, uh, you didn't go.
24:10at a central high, did you?
24:13Not until tonight.
24:15I know what you mean.
24:17It can be quite an education.
24:22Oh, thank you, thank you.
24:25Here's your wrap, Annie.
24:26It's kind of nippy outside.
24:28It's been wonderful meeting you folks.
24:30And thanks for taking care of my little girl.
24:34Goodbye, Vicki.
24:35Oh, Diana, you must come and see us the next time you're in town.
24:39And, Gus, I can't tell you.
24:41Thanks again.
24:44Honey, honey, the motor's running.
24:51Ah, that wasn't so bad, was it?
24:53Could have been a lot worse.
24:56I told George Clemson he was silly.
24:59You know what he said?
25:00He told me you and old Dee Dee would never get along.
25:04Oh, Dee Dee and me?
25:08Oh, you're kidding.
