Transcript
Family Theater presents Marshall Thompson and Pat Crawley. Hollywood, the mutual network in cooperation with Family Theater presents the girl in the green dress starring Pat Crawley. And now here's your host, Marshall Thompson.
Family Theater's only purpose is to bring to everyone's attention a practice that must become an important part of our lives if we are to win peace for ourselves, peace for our families and peace for the world. Family theater urges you to pray. Pray together as a family.
And now to our transcribed drama, The Girl in the Green Dress starring Pat Crowley. Doesn't understand me. She just doesn't understand. So you walked all the way over here to Pearl Street to see me. Must be something pretty important. But it is to me grandma. A boy?
Shall we step out in the backyard? Yeah. Let's just sit on the top of the steps. You see all these geraniums? I started them all from slips. Who they're beautiful. Well, enough eating around the flowers.
Now, what about this young man? Doesn't your mother approve? She doesn't even know him. And he hardly... He hardly knows how he exists. Oh, that's the problem, is it? It's...well, it's the system. The system?
Oh, you know what I mean. We must be ladies. We must sit them merely and wait to be noticed. We can never call them. We have to wait for them to call us. And if we let them know we want them to call them, we're too bold and we never hear from them again.
It's as vicious a system as...well, anything. Oh? Man has to be the aggressor, and we have to sit on our hands and wait. Wait, oh, it's a man's world, all right. Mm-hmm, to a degree, but I certainly think you can do more than sit on your hands and wait.
