1
00:00:29,496 --> 00:00:32,294
Hey, what's that?
A book.

2
00:00:32,366 --> 00:00:35,460
— What's it about?
— Fightin' and stuff.

3
00:00:35,536 --> 00:00:40,564
Hey, Beave, you're not gonna give the guys
another one of those crazy stories, are ya?

4
00:00:41,708 --> 00:00:45,735
They listened about the Indians,
didn't they? I'm gonna tell 'em one
about the War of1812.

5
00:00:45,812 --> 00:00:48,747
Well, just don't have it happen
in our front yard.

6
00:00:49,883 --> 00:00:52,818
Oh, no. I'm gonna let it happen
in South America.

7
00:00:58,525 --> 00:01:01,119
[Announcer]
Leave It To Beaver.

8
00:01:05,132 --> 00:01:09,501
5tarn'ng Barbara Billingsley,
Hugh Beaumont, Tony Dow...

9
00:01:10,637 --> 00:01:14,129
and Jerry Mathers as the Beaver.

10
00:01:15,642 --> 00:01:18,406
[Wally]
So long, Mom.
[Door Closes]

11
00:01:18,478 --> 00:01:20,708
[Footsteps On Stairs]
[Door Opens]

12
00:01:20,781 --> 00:01:22,806
[Beaver]
So long, Mom.
[June] Bye.

13
00:01:22,883 --> 00:01:25,078
[Door Closes]
[Groans]

14
00:01:26,219 --> 00:01:29,916
Well, I hear the boys
got off for school all right.
What was the commotion this morning?

15
00:01:29,990 --> 00:01:35,656
Beaver tried to hide
his tomato in the hall planter.
We finally got it back in his lunch box again.

16
00:01:35,729 --> 00:01:39,028
Wally wear his jacket?
We compromised.
He carried it.

17
00:01:39,099 --> 00:01:41,260
Oh. Well, that's progress.

18
00:01:41,335 --> 00:01:46,034
Ward, what was
that huge book the Beaver had?
He said you gave it to him.

19
00:01:47,441 --> 00:01:51,104
— Oh, it was a history of the Indian Wars.
— That's too advanced for him.

20
00:01:51,178 --> 00:01:55,444
Well, he told me he wasn't
going to read the reading.
He's just going to read the pictures.

21
00:01:57,017 --> 00:01:59,747
I'm sure he's not studying that in school.

22
00:02:00,754 --> 00:02:05,123
Well, you know, actually,
there's a lot of reasons why he might
carry a book like that to school.

23
00:02:05,192 --> 00:02:11,131
I remember when I was in the second grade,
I carried my father's unabridged dictionary
back and forth to school for a whole week.

24
00:02:11,198 --> 00:02:16,966
What in the world for?
Well, I wanted to strengthen my right arm.
I was going out for pitcher.

25
00:02:17,037 --> 00:02:19,335
And did it help?

26
00:02:19,406 --> 00:02:23,399
Nope. By the time tryouts came,
my arm was so tired I couldn't lift it.

27
00:02:24,878 --> 00:02:29,338
You know, maybe Beaver's getting interested
in history or something.

28
00:02:29,416 --> 00:02:33,182
I wish he'd get interested in anything
besides Wally and those older boys.

29
00:02:33,253 --> 00:02:35,483
You know those big boys.
They're awfully rough on him.

30
00:02:35,555 --> 00:02:37,887
They're always pushing him
and shoving him around.

31
00:02:37,958 --> 00:02:40,085
Oh, he doesn't mind
the pushing and shoving, June.

32
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,256
He's happy at his age that they pay
that much attention to him.

33
00:02:44,331 --> 00:02:49,496
They were down in South America, see?
And my uncle dove down
in 65 feet of water...

34
00:02:49,569 --> 00:02:53,005
with these two other skin divers—
right where the map said.
[Other Boys Approving]

35
00:02:53,073 --> 00:02:58,943
And they found this big old Spanish
treasure ship, and there were these gold pieces
layin' all over the bottom of the ocean.

36
00:02:59,012 --> 00:03:01,003
Gold pieces.
They call them "doubloons."

37
00:03:01,081 --> 00:03:03,709
Tooey, will you
keep outta my story?

38
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:11,320
Anyway, there were these doubloons
all over the bottom of the ocean.

39
00:03:11,391 --> 00:03:13,450
Two of the divers got hit by sharks.

40
00:03:13,527 --> 00:03:17,725
— See, they swam in this cabin and—
— Did— Did your uncle get bit by sharks?

41
00:03:17,798 --> 00:03:22,167
Heck, no.
He knows how to stare 'em down.

42
00:03:26,673 --> 00:03:29,506
[Boys Laughing]

43
00:03:29,576 --> 00:03:33,410
Anyway, they got over
a hundred thousand dollars'
worth of treasure.

44
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,505
A hundred thousand!
[Others Whistling, Approving]

45
00:03:35,582 --> 00:03:38,779
Boy, I'd like to find
a treasure ship.
Yeah, me too.

46
00:03:38,852 --> 00:03:42,447
This is almost as good as
that time the horse dropped dead
in front of your house.

47
00:03:42,522 --> 00:03:44,649
Oh, I told you guys
about that, huh?

48
00:03:44,725 --> 00:03:48,161
Yeah. Everything neat
happens to you.

49
00:03:49,296 --> 00:03:51,230
You guys hear about
the Indian fight?

50
00:03:51,298 --> 00:03:55,428
Indian fight?
What are you talkin' about,
you little squirt?

51
00:03:56,670 --> 00:03:58,638
Well, the one that happened
around our house.

52
00:04:01,108 --> 00:04:05,511
Are you kiddin'?
There haven't been any Indians around here
in a couple of hundred years.

53
00:04:05,579 --> 00:04:09,845
Well, that's when it happened—
a couple of hundred years ago.

54
00:04:09,916 --> 00:04:13,977
Hey, Wally, how come you never
mentioned no Indian fight?

55
00:04:15,388 --> 00:04:17,686
Uh, well, I guess
I never heard about it before.

56
00:04:17,758 --> 00:04:19,783
It happened right in front of our house.

57
00:04:19,860 --> 00:04:24,593
Yeah, Beaver?
You're makin' this up.
You got no proof.

58
00:04:24,664 --> 00:04:28,225
— Sure I have.
— What kinda proof?

59
00:04:28,301 --> 00:04:30,769
Well, uh,

60
00:04:30,837 --> 00:04:32,862
uh—

61
00:04:32,939 --> 00:04:36,102
I found real arrowheads
right across the street
in the vacant lot.

62
00:04:36,176 --> 00:04:38,667
No foolin'?

63
00:04:38,745 --> 00:04:41,339
Ah, he's makin' this all up.

64
00:04:41,414 --> 00:04:46,181
I am not.
I'll bet you any amount of money
you're makin' it up.

65
00:04:46,253 --> 00:04:50,155
I'll bet you a million dollars.
You don't have
a million dollars.

66
00:04:50,223 --> 00:04:52,248
All right.

67
00:04:52,325 --> 00:04:54,759
I'll bet you a dollar and 50 cents.

68
00:04:55,862 --> 00:04:58,160
Suppose you lose.
Who's gonna pay?

69
00:05:01,067 --> 00:05:03,035
Wally's got money.
He'll pay.

70
00:05:05,038 --> 00:05:08,974
Won't you, Wally?
Uh, well, yeah,
I guess so.

71
00:05:09,042 --> 00:05:12,068
[Bell Rings]
[Eddie]
Come on, guys. Let's go.

72
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:15,046
Indian fights.
You guys ever hear a funnier story?
[Other Boys Mocking]

73
00:05:15,115 --> 00:05:19,575
Hey, Beave, what'd you
have to go and make up
a crazy story like that for?

74
00:05:19,653 --> 00:05:23,817
The guys always listen to Eddie
and the neat story he tells.

75
00:05:23,890 --> 00:05:25,824
I thunk if I told one,
they'd listen to me too.

76
00:05:25,892 --> 00:05:31,091
Yeah, but you had to go and make a bet—
with my money and everything.

77
00:05:31,164 --> 00:05:35,294
All Eddie's stories happen in South America
or someplace where you can't prove 'em.

78
00:05:35,368 --> 00:05:39,429
You had to go and have the Indians
fightin' right across from our house.

79
00:05:40,874 --> 00:05:43,502
Hi, Dad.
Oh, Hi, Beave.

80
00:05:49,850 --> 00:05:53,183
[Chuckles]
Here. Let me help you.

81
00:05:55,188 --> 00:05:59,750
Did you like that book about Indians?
Yeah. I got a lot 
of good junk out of it.

82
00:05:59,826 --> 00:06:02,158
Here's another one
with some good pictures in it.

83
00:06:02,229 --> 00:06:04,629
This is all about the War of 1812.

84
00:06:07,367 --> 00:06:10,029
Is this the war where
you was a Seabee, Dad?

85
00:06:10,103 --> 00:06:12,936
Well, no.
That was a little later on.

86
00:06:13,006 --> 00:06:15,634
Thanks anyways.
[Chuckles]

87
00:06:18,712 --> 00:06:20,737
[Sighs]

88
00:06:20,814 --> 00:06:24,375
This looks like a real war.
There's ships fightin' and everything.
Mm—hmm.

89
00:06:24,451 --> 00:06:28,911
Did it happen in South America?
Well, no.

90
00:06:30,056 --> 00:06:32,923
That's okay.
I'll take it anyways.

91
00:06:35,462 --> 00:06:38,625
[June]
Beaver, I thought you were
upstairs taking a bath?

92
00:06:39,900 --> 00:06:44,599
— I wanna wait till Wally takes his
and use his water.
— You do no such thing.

93
00:06:45,739 --> 00:06:50,836
Yes, Mom.
Thanks again for the book, Dad.
All right.

94
00:07:01,321 --> 00:07:04,119
Hey, what's that?
A book.

95
00:07:04,190 --> 00:07:07,250
— What's it about?
— Fightin' and stuff.

96
00:07:07,327 --> 00:07:12,321
Hey, Beave, you're not gonna give the guys
another one of those crazy stories, are ya?

97
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,496
They listened about the Indians,
didn't they? I'm gonna tell 'em one
about the War of1812.

98
00:07:17,570 --> 00:07:20,505
Well, just don't have it happen
in our front yard.

99
00:07:21,541 --> 00:07:24,032
Oh, no. I'm gonna let it happen
in South America.

100
00:07:26,513 --> 00:07:31,610
Boy, if Eddie asks you to prove
that Indian story, I'm gonna be out
a whole dollar and a half.

101
00:07:33,219 --> 00:07:35,551
He won't. He'll probably
forget about it by tomorrow.

102
00:07:35,622 --> 00:07:37,783
[Door Opens]

103
00:07:39,359 --> 00:07:43,420
— Oh, Wally, you're wanted
on the phone.
— Oh, thanks, Dad.

104
00:07:43,496 --> 00:07:45,896
You can take it out in the hall

105
00:07:47,534 --> 00:07:52,699
Well, Beave, how are you comin'
with the War of] 81 2?

106
00:07:52,772 --> 00:07:54,706
It was a real neat war, Dad.

107
00:07:54,774 --> 00:07:58,733
Look here on the warship.
There's a man stuffing a mop in a cannon.

108
00:08:00,714 --> 00:08:03,808
Now that's Old Ironsides, Beave.
Now look over here.

109
00:08:03,883 --> 00:08:06,909
You see, this other ship's had
all the masts shot off of it.

110
00:08:06,987 --> 00:08:10,889
Oh. I thunk that flat one
was an aircraft carrier.

111
00:08:12,525 --> 00:08:16,393
You know, Beave, uh,you might
try reading some of this.

112
00:08:16,463 --> 00:08:18,727
Well, it couldn't hurt you.

113
00:08:18,798 --> 00:08:21,426
Good night, Son.

114
00:08:23,403 --> 00:08:26,133
Oh, excuse me.
Oh, that's okay, Dad.

115
00:08:38,418 --> 00:08:41,581
— Boy, are you in trouble.
— What is I done?

116
00:08:41,654 --> 00:08:46,387
Well, you had to go and bet Eddie and the guys
about Indians fightin' across the street—

117
00:08:46,459 --> 00:08:49,053
you findin' Indian arrowheads
and bullets and stuff.

118
00:08:49,129 --> 00:08:52,121
Do you know what they’re
gonna do tomorrow?
What?

119
00:08:52,198 --> 00:08:57,101
Well, they're comin' over here
with rakes and shovels and stuff...
and start diggin' across the street.

120
00:08:58,838 --> 00:09:00,772
I never thunk this would happen.

121
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,104
You should've thought of that
in the first place.

122
00:09:08,648 --> 00:09:11,378
What's so interesting
out there?
Wally and the Beaver.

123
00:09:11,451 --> 00:09:14,215
They're burying something out
in that vacant lot across the street.

124
00:09:19,626 --> 00:09:22,322
Oh. Well, maybe something died,
and they're giving it a funeral.

125
00:09:22,395 --> 00:09:26,593
No, I don't think so.
All the turtles and goldfish
are present and accounted for.

126
00:09:27,700 --> 00:09:31,101
Well, something's up.
Here comes Eddie
and Chester and Tooey.

127
00:09:36,543 --> 00:09:39,569
Oh, I wish I knew
what they were burying.

128
00:09:39,646 --> 00:09:42,672
They went out of here
so secretive.

129
00:09:42,749 --> 00:09:45,616
Well, I'll get your bacon and eggs.

130
00:09:45,685 --> 00:09:46,982
[Beaver Whistling]
Hi,Wally. Hi, Beave.

131
00:09:47,053 --> 00:09:49,078
Oh, hi, guys.
Hi, guys.

132
00:09:49,155 --> 00:09:52,716
What are you guys doin'—
diggin' before we got here?

133
00:09:52,792 --> 00:09:55,090
Uh, no. We're just
messin' around.

134
00:09:55,161 --> 00:09:58,255
— Hey, what's the box for?
_ Um—

135
00:09:59,666 --> 00:10:03,295
Well, if we find any arrowheads or stuff,
we can put 'em in the box.

136
00:10:03,369 --> 00:10:06,338
Who are you kiddin'?
We're not gonna find anything.

137
00:10:06,406 --> 00:10:09,170
This little squirt
made the whole thing up
about Indians.

138
00:10:09,242 --> 00:10:13,474
I did not. I betcha can't hardly
dig anyplace around here
without findin' somethin'.

139
00:10:13,546 --> 00:10:17,209
Ah, this is a goofy idea,
tryin' to prove
your crazy bet, Eddie.

140
00:10:17,283 --> 00:10:22,118
Well, the movies don't open till 12:30.
We might as well dig a little.
Yeah, let's go ahead and dig.

141
00:10:22,188 --> 00:10:25,055
Hey! I—I found somethin'!

142
00:10:25,125 --> 00:10:27,525
Hey, what is it, huh?
What is it? What is it?

143
00:10:27,594 --> 00:10:30,119
Ah, it's just an old rusty tin can.

144
00:10:31,731 --> 00:10:34,325
Maybe the Indians was eatin' tomatoes
after they killed everybody.

145
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,267
[Laughs]
Eatin' tomatoes.
Come on. Let's get this diggin' over with.

146
00:10:37,337 --> 00:10:40,602
I wanna get that buck and a half
so I can go to the movies.
Yeah. Come on.

147
00:10:40,673 --> 00:10:42,766
[Can Clatters]

148
00:10:51,484 --> 00:10:54,351
Eddie, I still think
you oughta dig right here.

149
00:10:54,420 --> 00:10:56,513
Ah, dry up!

150
00:10:59,092 --> 00:11:01,686
Hey, look!
I found somethin'.

151
00:11:06,366 --> 00:11:10,860
Hey, it's a real Indian arrowhead.
It's flint, all right.

152
00:11:12,138 --> 00:11:14,333
I guess it Is a real arrowhead.

153
00:11:15,508 --> 00:11:20,275
Hey, Wally, this looks like
the arrowhead you had
up in your room—

154
00:11:21,681 --> 00:11:24,411
the one your uncle
sent you from Arizona.

155
00:11:24,484 --> 00:11:29,251
Uh, w—well,you know how it is, Eddie.
One arrowhead looks like another.

156
00:11:30,857 --> 00:11:34,020
Ah, dry up, Eddie.
Let's keep diggin'.

157
00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:46,864
Hey, look! A busted arrow.
[Tooey] Where?
There.

158
00:11:49,042 --> 00:11:53,411
Let me see it.
Hey, that oughta prove
there were Indians here.

159
00:11:53,479 --> 00:11:55,947
We'll take our dollar
and a half now.

160
00:11:56,015 --> 00:11:58,916
Wait a minute.
Where's the other half
of the arrow?

161
00:12:00,787 --> 00:12:03,551
Uh, well, maybe it's still
in the guy they shot.

162
00:12:03,623 --> 00:12:07,559
Yeah. Let's keep diggin'.
We might find a real live skeleton.

163
00:12:07,627 --> 00:12:09,595
[Chester And Tooey Chattering]

164
00:12:09,662 --> 00:12:13,826
Hey, what's this on here?
Looks like printin'.

165
00:12:13,900 --> 00:12:18,599
"J-A-P-A-N."

166
00:12:20,406 --> 00:12:24,274
I'll tell you one thing:
I never heard of no Japanese Indians.

167
00:12:26,212 --> 00:12:28,271
W—Well, it's a real arrow.

168
00:12:29,382 --> 00:12:33,045
I think you guys
planted this stuff here
before we came.

169
00:12:33,119 --> 00:12:37,351
Come on.
Hand over the dough.
[Tooey]
Hey, you guys, come here!

170
00:12:38,725 --> 00:12:42,092
[Eddie] Whatcha do—
find some more phony junk?
Whatcha find?

171
00:12:42,161 --> 00:12:45,562
[Chester]
Look at the way it's shinin'.
Looks like jewels.

172
00:12:48,368 --> 00:12:51,769
Hey, Beaver, is this some more
of your phony junk?

173
00:12:51,838 --> 00:12:54,432
Heck no. We didn't bury nothin'
on this side of the lot.

174
00:12:56,242 --> 00:13:00,269
Hey, you know somethin', guys?
I think we've found somethin' valuable here.

175
00:13:00,346 --> 00:13:02,371
What do you mean, "we"?

176
00:13:02,448 --> 00:13:05,508
This is our lot.
If we find anything here,
it belongs to me and the Beaver.

177
00:13:05,585 --> 00:13:09,316
Well, I'm the one
who dug it up.
Hey, let's not start hollerin'.

178
00:13:09,389 --> 00:13:11,380
We don't want
the whole neighborhood
in on this.

179
00:13:14,394 --> 00:13:18,455
You know, guys, on account
of Beaver and his crazy stories,
[Breathing Loudly]

180
00:13:18,531 --> 00:13:20,522
we might all end up
bein' millionaires.

181
00:13:29,809 --> 00:13:31,800
Checking on
the neighbors again?

182
00:13:31,878 --> 00:13:34,938
[Both Chuckle]

183
00:13:35,014 --> 00:13:37,482
I thought the boys
were up here.
Uh—uh.

184
00:13:37,550 --> 00:13:41,987
Well, they've deserted the vacant lot.
They went into the garage
a while ago with a box.

185
00:13:42,055 --> 00:13:47,391
Looked like it was filled with dirt.
Ward, what would they do
with a box full of dirt?

186
00:13:47,460 --> 00:13:51,396
Well, June, the possibilities of dirt
are practically unlimited.

187
00:13:52,432 --> 00:13:57,301
I think you oughta go out there
and see what they're up to.
Well, June, I can't do that.

188
00:13:57,370 --> 00:14:02,808
Unless your kids are tearing something
down or burning something up
or being unkind to old ladies,

189
00:14:02,875 --> 00:14:04,809
you have to leave 'em alone.

190
00:14:04,877 --> 00:14:06,845
That's the unwritten law.

191
00:14:09,849 --> 00:14:13,683
[Clacking]

192
00:14:14,821 --> 00:14:17,085
Boy! Look at the size of this one.

193
00:14:17,156 --> 00:14:20,819
This must be worth
a thousand bucks by itself.

194
00:14:20,893 --> 00:14:22,918
I saw a movie once.

195
00:14:22,995 --> 00:14:27,864
These guys pried a stone just like this
outta this great big idol's eye.

196
00:14:27,934 --> 00:14:30,129
All they guys died 'cause
it had a curse on it.

197
00:14:30,203 --> 00:14:33,297
I hope nobody's been cursin' around here.

198
00:14:34,707 --> 00:14:36,766
Hey, I saw that picture, Eddie.

199
00:14:36,843 --> 00:14:40,609
It happened in Egypt.
Those kinda curses aren't allowed
to work on Americans.

200
00:14:42,548 --> 00:14:45,540
Where do you suppose
these valuable stones come from?

201
00:14:45,618 --> 00:14:48,052
Like all kinds of rocks—
the glaciers brought 'em.

202
00:14:50,523 --> 00:14:52,548
Are the glaciers like the Egyptians?

203
00:14:53,893 --> 00:14:57,056
Oh, why don't you
pipe down, Beaver.

204
00:14:57,130 --> 00:15:01,123
I wish Tooey would
hurry up and get back
with his father's book about rocks.

205
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,567
Me too. I'd like to figure out
whether these are emeralds
or rubies.

206
00:15:04,637 --> 00:15:08,471
Hi, fellas.
Hey, shut the door, will ya?

207
00:15:08,541 --> 00:15:10,509
Did you find out
what they is?

208
00:15:10,576 --> 00:15:15,980
Yeah. Here's a picture.
They're garnets.
Yeah, I guess they are.

209
00:15:16,048 --> 00:15:18,073
Hey, what are garnets?
Are they valuable?

210
00:15:18,151 --> 00:15:21,086
Are they valuable?
They use 'em in jewels.

211
00:15:22,588 --> 00:15:26,183
[Quietly]
Oh, boy.
It says, in India they even
sell 'em for rubies.

212
00:15:26,259 --> 00:15:28,693
[Quietly]
Rubies.
Wow.

213
00:15:28,761 --> 00:15:30,922
Hey, and we got
a whole vacant lot
full of 'em.

214
00:15:30,997 --> 00:15:33,761
Gee, they must be worth
A jillion dollars a pound.

215
00:15:33,833 --> 00:15:38,270
Boy, we'll be richer'n any kid
in the whole world—even Sal Mineo.

216
00:15:39,472 --> 00:15:41,702
You know
what I'm gonna do
with my share?

217
00:15:42,775 --> 00:15:47,075
Well, first I'm gonna buy
a sporting goods store,

218
00:15:47,146 --> 00:15:50,513
and then I think I'll buy
an amusement park, so I'll have
somethin' to do in the summer.

219
00:15:50,583 --> 00:15:54,986
I'm gonna buy the biggest
automobile in the world,
with red leather upholstery.

220
00:15:55,054 --> 00:15:58,285
Are you kiddin', Tooey?
You can't drive.

221
00:15:58,357 --> 00:16:01,451
So what? I'll park it out in front
and sit in it till I'm old enough.

222
00:16:03,262 --> 00:16:08,063
I'm gonna go to the dentist and have him
make me up a big gold tooth,

223
00:16:08,134 --> 00:16:10,159
just like my Uncle Frank has.

224
00:16:10,236 --> 00:16:12,466
Beaver, your teeth are okay.
You don't need a gold tooth.

225
00:16:12,538 --> 00:16:15,507
I know, but I always wanted one.

226
00:16:15,575 --> 00:16:18,874
When you have a gold tooth,
you've got somethin' that
every other kid doesn't have.

227
00:16:18,945 --> 00:16:21,345
[Other Boys Affirming]
Can you see me with one?

228
00:16:21,414 --> 00:16:25,316
I might buy one too.
Whatcha gonna do
with your money, Eddie?

229
00:16:26,586 --> 00:16:32,525
Well, first I'm gonna buy a big house
and get my father to quit his job.
Hey, that's pretty good.

230
00:16:34,126 --> 00:16:36,959
Then I'm gonna put my old man
on an allowance.

231
00:16:37,029 --> 00:16:42,194
If he wants cigars or wants
to go to the movies or anything,
he's gonna have to come to me.

232
00:16:42,268 --> 00:16:46,329
[Quietly]
Hey, that's pretty good.
Eddie, you're practically a genius.

233
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,905
Hey, after we divvy 'em up,
let's not anybody say anything
to anybody.

234
00:16:50,977 --> 00:16:53,343
[Quietly]
Yeah.
Well, let's divvy 'em up.

235
00:16:53,412 --> 00:16:57,041
Now remember, everybody
keep their mouths shut—

236
00:16:57,116 --> 00:16:59,414
especially you, Beaver,
you little squirt.

237
00:16:59,485 --> 00:17:02,613
You can't keep
a secret.
You cut that out, Eddie.

238
00:17:02,688 --> 00:17:06,647
If it wasn't for Beaver,
we never would have gotten
these garnets and gotten rich.

239
00:17:06,726 --> 00:17:11,493
You know, that's right,
isn't it? You know,
you're all right, Beaver.

240
00:17:20,072 --> 00:17:23,132
Well, hi, dear.
What are you doin'  in there?

241
00:17:23,209 --> 00:17:26,508
I'm putting a new bulb
in the refrigerator.

242
00:17:28,347 --> 00:17:31,111
I can't have you groping
around in the dark.

243
00:17:35,888 --> 00:17:38,982
There. That's that.
Don't thank me, dear.
Just remember me at Christmas.

244
00:17:45,064 --> 00:17:49,023
Well, I gotta get
some paperwork done.
Dear, this new bulb's too bright.

245
00:17:50,169 --> 00:17:52,967
Well, just wear your sunglasses
when you open the door, dear.

246
00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:56,406
You better get this stuff back
in the refrigerator before it spoils.

247
00:18:00,046 --> 00:18:02,139
Hi, Mom.
Hi, Beave.

248
00:18:03,282 --> 00:18:08,618
I come in to get a drink.
Well, I'll give you a glass of milk—
that is, if I can find it.

249
00:18:08,688 --> 00:18:10,781
Ha! Here we are.

250
00:18:13,859 --> 00:18:17,818
Where's Wally
and the other boys?
They went to get a soda.

251
00:18:17,897 --> 00:18:22,527
Beaver, what'd you do
with that box of dirt
you had out in the garage?

252
00:18:22,602 --> 00:18:24,695
It ain't dirt anymore, Mom.

253
00:18:26,472 --> 00:18:31,034
We poured it in a bucket of water.
Oh. Well, I'm glad to hear it.

254
00:18:35,114 --> 00:18:38,914
The big guys
like me now, Mom.
Oh, that's nice.

255
00:18:38,985 --> 00:18:43,854
They even asked me
to have a soda with them,
but I think I'd hang around here.

256
00:18:49,929 --> 00:18:51,863
Me and Wally and the big guys
got a secret.

257
00:18:51,931 --> 00:18:54,365
That's nice.

258
00:18:57,103 --> 00:19:00,903
— We're not allowed to tell what it is.
— Well, of course not.

259
00:19:02,642 --> 00:19:05,634
That's what makes it a secret.

260
00:19:08,981 --> 00:19:12,883
Aren't you gonna ask
me what it is?
Uh—uh.

261
00:19:14,854 --> 00:19:17,846
I bet if Dad were here,
he'd ask me what it is.

262
00:19:17,923 --> 00:19:22,553
Beaver, if the boys asked you
to keep a secret, I don't think
anyone should try to get it out of you.

263
00:19:24,797 --> 00:19:28,824
But gee, Mom, it doesn't hardly
seem like a real secret unless
somebody wants to know what it is.

264
00:19:28,901 --> 00:19:31,734
June, have you seen
any pencils?

265
00:19:31,804 --> 00:19:35,501
Oh, hi, Beave.
Hi, Dad.
Are you real busy?

266
00:19:35,574 --> 00:19:39,476
Well,yeah, as a matter of fact, I am, Beaver.
I've got an awful lot of work to do.

267
00:19:39,545 --> 00:19:44,414
Oh. Well, I guess
I'll go get a soda too.

268
00:19:50,790 --> 00:19:56,387
He's got a big secret and he's
just busting to tell someone.
Well, did you ask him what it was?

269
00:19:56,462 --> 00:19:58,657
Well, of course not, dear.

270
00:19:58,731 --> 00:20:03,691
Unless they're tearing down
buildings or burning up
old ladies, we just don't pry.

271
00:20:03,769 --> 00:20:05,794
Unwritten law.

272
00:20:11,711 --> 00:20:14,874
Mm. Hi, Beaver.
Hi, Gus.

273
00:20:18,684 --> 00:20:23,178
Whatcha doin' there?
Oh, sprayin' the plants
to get rid of the bugs.

274
00:20:23,255 --> 00:20:27,589
Funny thing, Beaver.
The bugs eat the plants,
and the birds eat the bugs.

275
00:20:27,660 --> 00:20:32,962
[Pumping Continues]
Who eats the birds?
Bigger birds.

276
00:20:34,100 --> 00:20:38,230
Don't hardly seem fair.
Well, that's the way it is, Beaver.

277
00:20:38,304 --> 00:20:42,331
It seems like everybody has gotta have
somebody else to jump on.

278
00:20:44,276 --> 00:20:46,335
— Say, Gus—
— Yeah, Beaver.

279
00:20:46,412 --> 00:20:49,973
Showin' a secret ain't the same
as tellin' a secret, is it?

280
00:20:50,049 --> 00:20:53,246
[Pumping Stops]
Well, I guess not exactly.

281
00:20:57,389 --> 00:21:00,256
Me and the big guys
found a garnet mind...

282
00:21:00,326 --> 00:21:02,988
right across the street
in the vacant lot.

283
00:21:03,062 --> 00:21:08,329
Well, those are sure 
honest—to—goodness 
garnets, all right.

284
00:21:09,869 --> 00:21:12,201
We're gonna sell 'em
to a jeweler and get rich.

285
00:21:12,271 --> 00:21:15,502
Tooey's gonna buy a big car,
and Wally's gonna buy an amusement park,

286
00:21:15,574 --> 00:21:18,270
and we're all gonna be jillionaires,
and the big guys like me now
'cause I'm the one who done it.

287
00:21:19,845 --> 00:21:24,305
Well, I'll tell ya, Beaver.
That sounds mighty nice,

288
00:21:24,383 --> 00:21:28,046
but there's people in the world
that's gotta tell other people bad news,

289
00:21:28,120 --> 00:21:30,054
just like there's birds
that eat other birds.

290
00:21:32,925 --> 00:21:34,950
I don't know what you mean, Gus.

291
00:21:35,027 --> 00:21:39,054
Well, I mean, these ain't the kind
Of garnets you sell to a jeweler.

292
00:21:39,131 --> 00:21:41,691
These are the kind they grind up
to make sandpaper.

293
00:21:43,469 --> 00:21:45,403
You mean, they ain't worth nuttin'?

294
00:21:47,072 --> 00:21:51,475
Not unless you was to have
a whole carload of 'em.
Too bad, Beaver.

295
00:21:53,112 --> 00:21:55,603
[Rock Clatters]

296
00:21:57,483 --> 00:21:59,417
I sure'd have liked to have
that gold tooth.

297
00:21:59,485 --> 00:22:04,479
I guess Wally and the boys'll be kind of
disappointed when you tell 'em, huh?

298
00:22:06,458 --> 00:22:08,517
Yeah, but I think I'll wait till tomorrow.

299
00:22:08,594 --> 00:22:11,392
At least that way I'll be a big guy
for a whole nother day.

300
00:22:25,511 --> 00:22:31,450
Don't tell me you're through
with the War of1812 already?
Yeah. I'm not gonna use it anymore.

301
00:22:31,517 --> 00:22:35,817
I was just gettin' stories
from the pictures.
Stories for school?

302
00:22:35,888 --> 00:22:40,257
No. Eddie Haskell told stories
and the big guys listened to him,

303
00:22:40,326 --> 00:22:44,387
so I told a story so they'd think
I was a big guy too.

304
00:22:44,463 --> 00:22:47,330
Oh. I see.

305
00:22:47,399 --> 00:22:50,459
I guess you wanna
be one of the big guys
pretty bad, huh, Beaver?

306
00:22:51,604 --> 00:22:54,471
I sure do.

307
00:22:54,540 --> 00:22:59,534
Well, I can understand that.
I went through the same thing myself.

308
00:22:59,612 --> 00:23:02,376
But I'll tell you something, Beaver,

309
00:23:02,448 --> 00:23:04,643
if you're gonna be a big guy,

310
00:23:04,717 --> 00:23:08,744
you've got to be a real,
honest—to—goodness big guy.

311
00:23:08,821 --> 00:23:10,755
See, if you lie,

312
00:23:10,823 --> 00:23:14,919
then you wind up just being
a make—believe big guy.

313
00:23:14,994 --> 00:23:17,622
And I'm sure that's not what you want.

314
00:23:18,731 --> 00:23:24,465
Yeah, I guess so. I guess that's
Why I told the guys the garnets
weren't no good today.

315
00:23:24,536 --> 00:23:28,438
You found a garnet?
Yeah. We dug 'em up.

316
00:23:28,507 --> 00:23:33,604
We thunk we was all rich,
but they was the kind
you made sandpaper out of.

317
00:23:33,679 --> 00:23:37,274
Oh.
Good night, Dad.

318
00:23:38,984 --> 00:23:41,111
Good night, Beave.

319
00:23:42,488 --> 00:23:45,355
Good night, Mom.
Good night, Beaver.

320
00:23:49,361 --> 00:23:52,990
Sounds like the Beaver
had quite a day.

321
00:23:53,065 --> 00:23:58,162
Well, you know, June, when you
come right down to it, sometimes
it's pretty tough being a kid.

322
00:23:58,237 --> 00:24:01,070
I just heard a little bit
of what you said to him.

323
00:24:01,140 --> 00:24:05,839
You know,
sometimes it's kinda tough
being an adult too.

324
00:24:18,457 --> 00:24:21,187
Hey, Wally—
Yeah, Beave?

325
00:24:21,260 --> 00:24:24,252
You think the guys'll
be mad at me for long?

326
00:24:24,330 --> 00:24:28,767
Nah. They'll probably
forget about it by tomorrow.

327
00:24:28,834 --> 00:24:32,998
But all you guys were
gonna do those big things
when we sold the garnets.

328
00:24:33,072 --> 00:24:35,006
Eddie was gonna buy
a house and everything.

329
00:24:36,375 --> 00:24:38,605
Yeah, but we were just talkin'.

330
00:24:38,677 --> 00:24:42,477
Even when we believed it, I don't think
we really thought it would happen.

331
00:24:45,851 --> 00:24:50,845
But gee, Wally, guys do
find mines and jewels...

332
00:24:50,923 --> 00:24:52,857
and get to be millionaires
and everything.

333
00:24:54,159 --> 00:24:59,426
Yeah, but that only happens
to famous people. Nothin' that good
could ever happen to kids.

334
00:25:02,368 --> 00:25:07,533
I guess so.
Good night, Wally.
Good night, Beave.
