:09:01
You better brace yourself.
What? What is it?
:09:04
You remember when your father sent
that application into the government?
:09:08
You mean the one for me
to be an astronaut?
:09:11
We don't have to worry
about that.
:09:13
We have to worry about it now,
Roy, because they have accepted you.
:09:18
What?
It says so right there.
:09:20
It says that they have
accepted you as a WB-1074.
:09:24
Your father took one look at
that and then he ran outdoors...
:09:27
and he's telling everybody
in town about it.
:09:31
An astronaut?
:09:34
Me? An astronaut? I can't even get
up on the chair to get the marmalade.
:09:39
- Oh, my poor boy.
- Why is Pa always tryin' to run my life?
:09:43
Well, after all, he was a corporal in World
War I and you know how bossy they were.
:09:48
But, Ma, that war's
been over for ages.
:09:50
Not to your father. He loves that
war as much today as he did then.
:09:54
An astronaut?
:09:56
Me? An astronaut?
:09:59
Oh, I should've studied up more on fear
of heights and things when you were young.
:10:03
I'm so tired of Pa thinkin' he's still
in the army and orderin' me around.
:10:07
Burt Lancaster was terribly
afraid of the water...
:10:11
and today,
he is a movie star.
:10:13
Look, Ma,
I'm 35 years old!
:10:15
Okay, so I do live at home. I still
don't have to do everything he tells me!
:10:19
Burt was the most unforgettable
character that month.
:10:22
Well, I'll tell you something right
now, Ma! I've had it! H-A-D, had it!
:10:27
And the minute he comes in that door, I'm
gonna tell him, "No soap! I'm not goin'!"
:10:31
Hi, Mother. Roy!
:10:34
Roy! Roy! Roy.
:10:38
Roy, ya made it, boy!
Ya made it!
:10:41
My boy, an astronaut.
:10:43
Hey, the whole town knows it, Roy.
Your name is on every tongue in town.
:10:48
They're all sayin' it:
"Buck Fleming's boy, astronaut!"
:10:51
Royal has something
to tell you, Arbuckle.
:10:54
Oh, yeah, that's right,
Pa, I do. Well, shoot.
:10:56
Well, maybe you better sit down. Ah.
