00:00You have a date with the Angels, starring Betty White, Bill Williams as Gus Angel,
00:28presented by the Plymouth Dealers of America, who proudly sell and service the beautiful new Plymouth for 1957.
00:42The time, about four months after Vicki and Gus Angel were married.
00:47The plot, there's no business like monkey business.
00:50The main character, there's no business like monkey business.
00:58Come on, darling, we'd better get going if we're going to see the falls.
01:08They might turn them off.
01:12To the gang at Henshaw, Taylor, Malcolm and Chase.
01:15Care of George Cle...
01:16Why care of George?
01:18We didn't see.
01:19That'll pay him back for the exploding matches he gave to me.
01:31Even on your vacation.
01:34You know, if I were Mr. Taylor, I'd take a pretty dim view of this.
01:38My so-called dignified insurance staff playing practical jokes on each other.
01:42Well, Taylor's not as lenient as Mr. Henshaw used to be, but we're educating him.
01:46Oh, darling, isn't this great?
01:52Great.
01:54You have a wonderful knack for changing the subject.
01:57Mm-hmm.
02:00Shall we go?
02:01Okay.
02:02Oh.
02:04Don't forget George's butterfly.
02:07Can you see George's face when he opens this letter?
02:09Oh.
02:16Did you yell?
02:27Yeah.
02:28How do you like that Gus Angel pulling a cheap trick like that on me?
02:31Well, George, you should have checked the envelope first.
02:34You know, you can feel those things through the paper.
02:36Yeah?
02:36Yeah, let me read that note.
02:39Dear gang, there's every animal in the world up here in Yellowstone,
02:42so we thought we'd send you one, Gus and Vicki.
02:46Hey, is Vicki in this too?
02:48That's what it says.
02:49Oh.
02:50You know, George, we've got to get up a nice little reception for them when they get back.
02:55Yeah.
02:56Let me see.
02:57Hey, I'll tell you what we do.
02:58How about turning their lawn upside down?
03:02Well, how do you do that?
03:03Well, you just cut it up in one foot squares and turn it over.
03:07And when they come home, all they got is roots.
03:11Now, now, everybody does that.
03:14I know what you do.
03:15Hi, fellas.
03:16Oh, hi, Pete.
03:17Hey, when do we go on strike?
03:18I don't know.
03:19We were just discussing getting back at the Angels.
03:21Oh?
03:21Get a load of that.
03:24The old butterfly trick.
03:26Yeah.
03:27Clemson fell for it.
03:28Oh, well, gee whiz.
03:31See, I know.
03:32Why don't we dump a load of gravel in their driveway?
03:35No, no, no.
03:36It's too expensive.
03:39The thought.
03:42I know.
03:44Where we could get what?
03:46What?
03:48Well, go ahead.
03:49I like it already.
03:50Yeah, this is the best one yet.
03:53They say, there's every animal in the world up in Yellowstone, right?
03:55Right.
03:56Well, we're going to show one they've never seen.
03:58Now, here's what we do.
04:00Geeks, Kenny, you have work in here?
04:03Why else would we be here, Mr. Taylor?
04:05Sorry.
04:07Who did the correspondence with the Lydia Blier's people?
04:10Well, I believe that was Gus Angel's account, sir.
04:13Oh.
04:14Well, it looks like I'll have to bother him the moment he gets back from his vacation.
04:18Yes, sir.
04:19Well, why didn't you tell me that Angel had sent us a letter?
04:24Oh, Mr. Taylor.
04:25Don't open that, sir.
04:27Mr. Taylor, sir.
04:28Don't open that.
04:28Ah!
04:28Ah!
04:29Ah!
04:29Mr. Gregg, tell Keeks and Kenny to return to Clemson's office immediately.
04:45Hey, Mr. Taylor, shut up, Clemson.
04:56Ahem.
04:57Gentlemen.
04:58Ahem.
04:59Ahem.
04:59Gentlemen.
05:00Ahem.
05:01For some months now, you three men, and Angel, of course, have engaged in a series of undignified
05:10and ridiculous and utterly childish practical jokes.
05:14Come back here.
05:15Hey, sir, I merely happen to be passing Clemson's office.
05:17Yeah, me too, sir.
05:19George, this is your office.
05:21Shut up, Clemson.
05:25I am telling you, here and now, there will be no more practical jokes in this office.
05:30Do I make myself clear?
05:31Yes, sir.
05:32Yes, sir.
05:32Yes, sir.
05:33Yes, sir.
05:33Yes, sir.
05:34That will do.
05:36Now, you all know how I dislike threats, but this is a business office, and by thunder,
05:41it's going to be operated like a business office.
05:44Yes, sir.
05:45That is all.
05:48Fellas, I don't know about you, but he made me feel absolutely juvenile.
05:51Yeah.
05:52And you've got to admit, he's been a pretty good sport.
05:54Now, what do you got in mind?
05:56Now, here's what we do.
06:11Now, here's what we do.
06:41I'm so tired, I'm seeing double.
06:58Just the same.
06:59I'm glad we drove straight through.
07:01Give us the whole weekend to rest up.
07:02What happened?
07:28I'm all right.
07:29Oh, I just screamed.
07:32Your butterfly came home to roost.
07:37Now, what does that mean?
07:40There's a gorilla in the bedroom.
07:59Well, he's tired is tired, but a gorilla's in the bedroom, please.
08:05Why, it's a gorilla.
08:08And the big funny joke is over.
08:12You know who did this, don't you?
08:14Sure.
08:15Keith thought of it, and Wilma was taking care of the house for you, so George had the key,
08:18and Carl organized it.
08:20It had to be them.
08:22It would take at least two of them to lift it.
08:24How do you like those guys?
08:26This is not the moment to ask me that question.
08:38Look, you're not going to go to bed without getting rid of him, are you?
08:40Well, sure.
08:42What arm can he do?
08:42He's stuffed.
08:45Aren't you tired to be reasonable?
08:47Get him out of here.
08:49Honey, he's too heavy.
08:51Tomorrow, I'll call Murph, and he'll help me get rid of him.
09:04Boo.
09:05Oh, hey, Gus, let's put this thing down.
09:23It weighs a ton.
09:24Yeah.
09:26Good morning.
09:27Me, Jane.
09:30Honey, Murph had a wonderful idea on how to get even with those guys.
09:33Now, honey, we shouldn't get Murphy mixed up in this.
09:37Well, that's what neighbors are for.
09:39Like I told Gus, these three clowns are going to expect some reaction out of here,
09:43and all you do is just nothing.
09:45Sure, they won't be able to stay away.
09:47You know darn well the three of them will be by this afternoon to see how pale and frightened we are.
09:53Well, he isn't exactly cuddly.
09:57I'd love to see their faces when you pretend that you don't know nothing about them.
10:01They'll flip.
10:03I don't mean to sound like a stuffed shirt, but hasn't this practical joke thing gone just about far enough?
10:09Well, who are you hurting?
10:11Come on, Gus, let's get him out again.
10:14Let me get that door.
10:14You know, I got a friend who does this for a living.
10:28Carrie's gorilla's out of bedrooms?
10:30No, he's a live gorilla.
10:34Well, I mean, he isn't alive.
10:38Well, he is alive.
10:40Well, you see, he's got this gorilla suit, and when he gets in it, he looks alive.
10:46See, he works in pictures and stuff like that.
10:49You know, I bet there'll be plenty of work around for a guy like that.
10:52Oh, yeah, there sure is.
10:54You know, I've known this guy a long time.
10:56He works all the time.
10:58Him and me used to drive a cab together.
11:00Well, you see, we didn't both drive the same cab.
11:04I, uh, I had my cab, and he had his cab.
11:10Do we know, Murph?
11:12Yeah.
11:13Do you think you can get this guy to come over here?
11:15Who?
11:16This gorilla friend of yours.
11:17Kelly?
11:18What do you want with...
11:21Oh!
11:24Gus, no!
11:25Who you hurting?
11:26Yeah!
11:26Gus, we have one gorilla.
11:29We don't need two.
11:30They deserve it.
11:31What those guys did to us.
11:33No.
11:34Can't you see their faces when the stuffed gorilla moves?
11:37Well, I just don't want you.
11:40I...
11:40I...
11:41Murph, do you think you can get this fella?
11:49I'll call him right away.
11:53Now, here's what we'll do.
11:55Double.
11:55Why it's a last minute like this, Mr. Kelly.
11:57Murph's done me a lot of favors.
11:59Besides, it sounds like fun.
12:02Yep.
12:03Old Kelly will do a real good job for him.
12:05You're sure you won't stay and watch?
12:07Oh, no, no.
12:07Kel's right.
12:08They wouldn't act natural with a stranger around.
12:11Well, we'll give you a scream-by-scream report.
12:16I think they're here.
12:17I'll sneak out through the patty.
12:19See you later.
12:19Come on, Mr. Kelly.
12:20Now, remember, at first, we're going to pretend we don't know anything about any gorilla.
12:23Now, stand between the beds where the stuffed gorilla was.
12:27What do I do when I get in the bedroom?
12:30And live.
12:33Oh, good to see you, boy.
12:36Well, Vicki, welcome home.
12:38How was Yellowstone?
12:39Hi.
12:40Hi, Vicki, honey.
12:41Oh, yes.
12:41Glad to see you.
12:43Well, I'll just stop by to return your key.
12:45And look who I run into on the front porch.
12:47Well, I happen to be in the area.
12:50And suddenly, I remembered you were about due home.
12:52Just get in today, kid?
12:54Last night.
12:56Late.
12:57Oh.
13:01I, um, I'll take the key now, George, while I think of it.
13:05What key?
13:06All keys.
13:07Yeah, keys.
13:08Sure.
13:10Mm-hmm.
13:10Drove right through, huh?
13:12Straight through.
13:13Never mind, George.
13:15I can get the key from Wilma.
13:17Oh, that's a funny thing.
13:17You know, I made a special trip here, too.
13:19Yeah.
13:20Gee.
13:21Well, you're here now.
13:23That's the main thing.
13:24Yeah, well.
13:26Yeah.
13:28Well.
13:29Well.
13:31Uh.
13:33Everything all right when you got home?
13:35Sure.
13:36Why shouldn't it be?
13:37Well, no reason.
13:38I just thought it was Wilma looking after everything and all that.
13:43No reason.
13:46I must call Wilma and thank her.
13:48The place looked perfect when we came in last night.
13:53Oh, gosh, I just happened to think.
13:55I wonder if you have a black tie.
13:57Dolly and I are going to a formal dance at the country club next week.
14:00Well, I must have mislaid mine, so I'll just go in the bedroom and borrow yours.
14:04I don't have one.
14:04You don't have one.
14:08Oh, say, Vicki, that reminds me.
14:10Wilma seems to think she left a sweater around here somewhere.
14:13She did.
14:13I found it this morning.
14:14Good.
14:15I'll get it.
14:17Here it is.
14:18What?
14:22Yeah.
14:24That's it.
14:25Oh, Gus, if the fellas will excuse you.
14:28Can I see you outside just a minute?
14:29Honey, we can't be rude.
14:31Oh, no, no, no, please.
14:32Go ahead.
14:33We're like one of the family.
14:34Go ahead.
14:35Make yourselves a phone movie.
14:36Sure, thank you.
14:38Do you think we put that gorilla in the wrong house?
14:43What's the matter with you?
14:45Can't you see what they're doing?
14:46They're just toying with us.
14:47They are?
14:48Well, they've got that gorilla stashed somewhere, and they're just trying to make us sweat.
14:52Sure.
14:53Look, you look in the bedroom, and I'll go in there, too.
14:56It's okay, George.
15:05It's right where we live.
15:05How's Rice out on the back porch?
15:07Now, look.
15:07Here's what we're going to do.
15:10You're talking about the gorillas in the bedroom.
15:21Sorry, Rice.
15:22So are you.
15:23There has to be some...
15:25Look, even I know we can't both be right.
15:28Come on.
15:38Wait a minute.
15:41You know how they do this, don't you?
15:43This room somehow connects with the service porch, and every time we charge into one room,
15:47they shove the gorilla in the other.
15:48Yeah, either that or they've got some pretty shaggy laundry out there.
15:51Oh, come on.
15:54Let's get this monkey out of here.
15:55He's costing us ten bucks a day.
15:56Yeah.
15:56Carl.
15:57Do you remember him having loose eyeballs?
16:15Loose eyeballs?
16:15Well, either they're loose or he's watching us.
16:23Oh, come on.
16:28Carl.
16:29Yeah?
16:30Does he feel kind of mushy to you?
16:31Oh, it's just that the room is warm and he's softening up a bit.
16:39You know, you're right, though.
16:40There's something different.
16:41They've done something to him.
16:43Well, come on.
16:43Let's get him out.
16:44No, no, no, no.
16:45Now, wait a minute, George.
16:46Let's sit down and attack this thing intelligently.
16:49Intelligently?
16:49Yeah.
16:58Now, the first thing is, we know we put a gorilla in here yesterday.
17:02Right.
17:02That's right.
17:02The angels came home last night and saw that gorilla.
17:04That's right.
17:05And just a moment ago, you saw a gorilla in the kitchen.
17:08Uh, laundry room.
17:10That's right.
17:10In the laundry room.
17:11Oh, it's just in your face.
17:25This is Mr. Kelly.
17:27He works for the movie.
17:28Oh, no.
17:29I had an idea there was a man in here.
17:32No, no, no.
17:33It's a funny gag.
17:34It's a funny gag.
17:35It's funny.
17:38When we came home last night and saw your gorilla,
17:41well, we had to do something.
17:42She slept in the other room.
17:44Who didn't?
17:47Hey, Gus, I enjoyed your butterfly.
17:50Uh-oh.
17:51Wait a minute, kids.
17:52So did Mr. Taylor.
17:53We've had it.
17:54Oh, yeah.
17:55Yeah.
17:55Mr. Taylor blew his stack when he opened that envelope of yours
17:57with a butterfly in it.
17:59Oh, no.
18:00Yep.
18:00I'm afraid we're going to have to find some other little game
18:02to play at the office.
18:03He told me to warn you, Gus.
18:04I'm warned.
18:06You know, it's a shame Keats couldn't have been here to see.
18:09The whole thing was his idea.
18:12Nah, he'll be around.
18:13That is a shame.
18:15Yeah.
18:17He will?
18:18Oh, sure.
18:19He's got...
18:19Yes!
18:22Yes, Mickey!
18:23Now, here's what we'll do.
18:24We'll get Mr.
18:25Can you say just a little while longer, Mr. Kelly?
18:27Oh, I'd love it!
18:30All right.
18:31We'll pull the same gag we did on you,
18:32except we'll do it in the living room.
18:34And when Jim Keats sees it,
18:35and he's done...
18:35Oh, there he is!
18:36There he is!
18:36Now, you come in in a little while and don't let him see you!
18:39No!
18:39No, no, no, no!
18:40Have fun!
18:41Yeah, yeah, yeah!
18:54Hello, Mickey!
18:58Good time?
19:00I'll call Gus.
19:01Oh, no, no, I realize it's a very poor time to call,
19:04but you see, my vacation is starting Monday,
19:06and, uh, well, I wanted to brief Gus on one of our clients.
19:11Uh, Lila and I go to Europe, leaving Monday.
19:16You can't leave soon enough.
19:18Yes.
19:19Don't you find?
19:20Yes, yes, you're quite right.
19:23I just hope you have as good a time as we did.
19:26That's right.
19:26Thank you for the candy.
19:28That was so sweet of him.
19:29Oh, not at all.
19:33Oh, Angel.
19:35Mr. Taylor, I didn't know you were here, sir.
19:37Yes, I just want to tell you something here,
19:39and then I'll be on my way.
19:40Oh, don't go, don't go, Vicki.
19:41This will only take a second.
19:43Uh, this is the, uh, Blier's account.
19:45These papers, Gus, were at my home,
19:46and I wanted you to have them before I left.
19:49Send everything to her home and nothing to the plan.
19:51And, uh, everything in trouble.
19:53Well, I, I guess that's it.
19:57Well, I'm awfully glad you're home,
19:59and, uh, you can know how glad I am that I'm going.
20:02Yes, we can.
20:04Oh, well, goodbye.
20:05Goodbye, sir.
20:07Oh, oh, Gus, there is just one thing more.
20:11Uh, I, uh, I had to give the boys
20:13quite a dressing down the other day.
20:16It's about those eternal practical jokes.
20:19Angel, they've got to be stopped.
20:21Now, uh, you're the stabilizing influence down there,
20:25the office.
20:30And, uh, I'd kind of like to have you take charge
20:33while I'm awake.
20:35You know, it's absolutely ridiculous.
20:38Men, grown men, acting like children.
20:41Why, uh, why, even Keats is guilty.
20:44Wrong one.
20:46No, no, no, no, I thought he was the wrong one, too.
20:48I, I, I, but, but he was, he was guilty.
20:50Yes, he, he was the one who, uh,
20:53he punched those little holes
20:56in the paper drinking cups, you know.
20:58That would be ridiculous.
20:59A dignified man like Keats.
21:01Uh, uh, you know,
21:02thinking that it's funny to see water
21:04dribbling down somebody's shirt front.
21:05No.
21:06You know, we have a business firm.
21:08And I...
21:09We have a business.
21:22We got it in Yellowstone.
21:36Our Yellowstone?
21:43Well, this friend of ours is the curator of the museum up there,
21:46and he didn't know what to...
21:47And he had this gorilla in his museum.
21:51And, uh, and it was confusing the tourists,
21:54so he asked us if we'd bring him down.
21:58What were you saying about...
22:03Was, uh, was it here when I came in?
22:06Well, yes, he's too big for the closet, and, uh...
22:09You want me to deal directly with Miss Blyer, sir?
22:13Yes, oh, oh, yes, Gus.
22:15You see, you're the only one that can...
22:17Yeah, but he's not indigenous to Yellowstone.
22:24Well, that's what was confusing the tourists.
22:27Well, I...
22:28Offhand, I would say that your, uh,
22:32your Yellowstone friend is imposing upon you.
22:35Well, we're going to get him out of here the minute we can.
22:41Well, Lyle and I are booked on, uh, for Liverpool,
22:46on one of the big steamers.
22:47And, uh, you know, I'm just old-fashioned enough to,
22:51or, uh, maybe I'm just old enough to think that
22:54an ocean voyage is the only voyage.
22:56I...
22:57Yet I, I, I...
23:01I may be old-fashioned, but I always say that an ocean voyage
23:07is the only voyage.
23:09I...
23:10I, uh...
23:11Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, of course,
23:17this, this may make me feel old-fashioned,
23:19but, uh, uh, that's the way I have.
23:23I mean, I mean, uh,
23:24could I have a glass of water, please?
23:27Let me get it.
23:28No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'll get it.
23:30I need the wall.
23:55I might have known.
23:58Come in, come in, come in.
24:01Well, how appropriate.
24:03Now we have a two-headed friend.
24:07Gentlemen.
24:08Mr. Taylor, shut up, Vincent.
24:11Now, which one of you would like to explain this childish nightmare?
24:17Well, you see, sir, Keith Clemson and I, well, we rented that gorilla with the idea of stashing
24:23it in the angels' bedroom so that when they came home tired from their vacation, they'd...
24:28Oh, I know.
24:30That's the funniest thing I ever heard of.
24:33Well, we kind of thought it would be the case.
24:35Isn't it?
24:36Yeah.
24:37And when we found the gorilla, I thought of Mr. Kelly here, and he was kind enough to come
24:42over and scare them.
24:43Yeah.
24:44Yeah.
24:45What else?
24:46Well, then when we found out Jim Keats was coming over, we thought it'd be funny if we...
24:51All right.
24:52All right.
24:53This is exactly the childish nonsense I've been talking about.
24:57Now, today is Saturday, and technically you're on your own time, but I...
25:00Did you say Jim Keats was coming over here?
25:05Well, yes, sir.
25:06That's what started all the trouble when the doorbell rang.
25:08We thought...
25:09Mr. Taylor, no!
25:13Now, here's what we'll do.
25:20Got a date with an angel, going to meet her at seven.
25:29Got a date with an angel, and I'm on my way to heaven.
