Transcript

The Colgate Pammali Pete Company, makers of Halo, shampoo to glorify your hair, and Colgate tooth powder to get teeth sparkling and super clean bring you. Mr. and Mrs. Naught, starring Joseph Curtain and Alice Foss.

In all respects, Pam and Jerry North's car is an excellent car with only one defect. It always picks the long way home. That's especially the trouble tonight when Pam and Jerry are coming from a weekend in the country and the car seems to have chosen the longest, darkest and most deserted road.

Emma, I'll have to take ten minutes shut eye darling before we can go on. I'm getting dangerously sleepy. Well let's do it then Jerry. This is no place to have a smash up. Just lie back to the seat dear.

I can just feel myself drifting right off to sleep naturally. Well, Jerry, that's right. Go to sleep right while I'm talking. For all you know, I might have had something very interesting to say. I didn't. I might have.

Well, somebody's playing a musical instrument. And way out in the country. He's good too. Where's it coming from? I don't see any houses. I wonder... Look, there. On the side of the road. A man playing a clarinet and coming to orbit.

He's seen us. Hey, come with me. Come with me this way. Why, what's the matter? Just behind those trees. Come and see. What's there? A tree got in the way of my car. Oh, an accident. Anybody heard?

A girl. And a tree killed her. She's dead. Please come and help me out. Right away. Where's your car? Over here, behind these trees, see? Holy. You really smashed up. The girls in this seat helped me, would you?
