Transcript

Mother, why did Daddy switch to post him? Your father says there's no caffeine in post him, nothing to spoil your sleep. And your father knows best. Yes, it's Father Knows Best, transcribed in Hollywood, starring Robert Young as father.

A half hour visit with your neighbors in the Anderson's, brought to you by Instant Postam, the good tasting drink that's entirely caffeine-free, and by post 40% brand flakes, America's largest selling brand flakes. One of the truly important milestones in the happy young life of 18-year-old Betty Anderson was the glorious day when she was first allowed to drive the family car.

And it's still an occasion when she takes the wheel of the not new, but still shiny and carefully kept four-door sedan. So let's watch this afternoon as Betty and Brother Bud hold into the driveway of the White Frame House on Maple Street and prepare to return Father's treasured car to the shelter of the garage, like this.

You better get out here, bud. We're not in the garage yet. Get out. If you open the car door in the garage, it might bump the workbench and scratch the paint. Holy cow. Well, I'm responsible for the car when I have it. You know how touchy father is about the tiny of little marco.

Okay, okay, I'm out. Go ahead. How am I on that side? You got all kinds of room on this side. You're motor scooter out of the way? Yeah. You tell me if I'm gonna hit anything.

I'll watch on this side. Star narrow garage. Well, go ahead. What are you looking through the back window for? You're going frontwards. I thought I saw Jamie look at across the street. Put the car in the garage.
