Transcript

The adventures of Aussie and Harriet, presenting America's favorite young couple, Aussie Nelson and Harriet Villiers. And now let's see what's going on in the Nelson family. What are you writing, Dair? Uh, just a letter.

Is it a secret? No, no, it's no secret. It's just a letter. Oh, that's different. Anyone I know? I know. No, dear. Would you mind not speaking to me for just a couple of minutes? I'm trying to concentrate.

Oh, I'm sorry. Are you looking for something, dear? Er, yes. Have you seen the dictionary? What word do you want to have to spell? Well, I know how to spell it. I just want to make sure I'm right.

Okay. Where is that dictionary? Well, what's the word? I don't know whether you've even heard of it. It's demagogue. Oh, demagogue? D-E-M-A-G-O-G-U-E. Harry, let's not guess, shall we? Oh, good. Let's see. M-B-C-D. Oh, yes.

Dell, the magnetine, the demagogue. D-E-M-A-G-O-G-U-A. What'd that tell you? Harriet, please. I knew how to spell the word. How'd it written down? As a matter of fact. Just want to double check. What are you looking for now?

Have you seen my eraser? That's what happened two nights ago. And that brings us right up to date. Now let's see, where were we? Oh yes, they're at breakfast and Harriet says... I wish you'd put down that paper and drink your coffee.

Just a minute there. I just wanted... Oh, oh! I say Harriet. Yes, dear? Listen to this. I just happened to stumble across it here in letters to the editor. Would you care to hear it?

Your coffee's getting cold. Dear sir, recent surveys show that an alarming number of voters are shirking their duties by failing to register for the coming election. This is indeed... Good morning, my dear. Good morning, Ricky.
