Transcript

Swan, the white floating soap that's pure as fine cast field brings you George Burns and Gracie Allie. Oh, my God! With the music of Felix Mills, the Swan Ted and yours truly high-von sell. Well, yesterday was a lovely Sunday, so George and Gracie went for a walk.

But it was also Father's Day, and several people stopped the pad George's cheek and tell Gracie what a sweet old gentleman her father was. Well, it's still the topic of conversation as we look in at the Burns' home.

The idea, those people thinking you're old, thinking you're my father. I've never been so mad nor my wife. Me too. I can still hear them. How is your sweet old father? Oh, what a charming old father.

Tell you I'm furious. Me too. Since when you had to be old to be my father. Well, so that's why you burned up. Not only that, dear. Even if they called you my young father, I wouldn't like it.

You're my husband and I want everyone to know it. Because I love you and I'm proud of you. Thanks, dear. I want everyone to know that I was caught up by the youngest, handsomest, most charming, most start-after-starring show business.

Thanks. But I married you because I love you. Thanks. Certainly you've got a few lines in your face. But maybe that's my fault. Maybe I haven't been a good wife. Oh sure you have, honey.

No, I haven't. I worry you. I'm always running out and buying a new hat without even asking your permission. Oh, well, huh. Judge, I hereby promise I'll never buy another hat unless you surprise me and ask me to.
