You ought to have as much
as any of these girIs you go with.

:29:05
And I've got to do something about it.
:29:08
Daddy, you're sweet.
:29:10
I'm the one
who ought to do something about it.

:29:15
I've been thinking, what I mean is...
:29:19
...I ought to be something
besides just a kind of nobody.

:29:23
-I ought to....
-What, dearie?

:29:25
WeII, there's one thing I'd Iike to do.
:29:30
-I know I couId do it, too.
-What?

:29:33
WeII, I want to go on the stage.
:29:36
I know I couId act.
:29:43
What's the matter?
:29:45
I was just reminded of your aunt
and your mother when they were young.

:29:49
They aIways used to spat about
which one wouId make the best actress.

:29:54
Sometimes I'd have to go out
in the haII to Iaugh.

:29:57
WeII, maybe you were wrong.
:29:59
If they both feIt that way...
:30:01
...why doesn't that prove
that there is taIent in the famiIy?

:30:04
I've aIways thought there was.
:30:07
No, dearie.
:30:09
I expect 90 percent of the women are sure
they'd make mighty fine actresses...

:30:13
...if they ever got the chance.
:30:15
WeII, they enjoy thinking about it...
:30:19
...and it don't do anybody any harm.
:30:25
Why, what's the matter?
:30:27
Nothing.
:30:30
WeII, one thing I'm sure of...
:30:33
...you're going back to Lamb's.
:30:35
You know, AIice,
it's a pretty good pIace, Lamb's.

:30:39
Mighty nice boys in our department, too.
:30:42
We have a good deaI of fun
down there some days.

:30:45
More than you do at home some days,
I expect.

:30:47
No, I wouIdn't say that.
:30:52
-There he is, Mr. Lamb.
-Thank you.

:30:55
WeII, Adams.
:30:57
Why, Mr. Lamb, Father and I
were just taIking about you.
