:49:04
Some party, eh?
Yeah.
:49:08
Well, this made us wiser
than the Kaiser.
:49:16
Hey, Roy. You had something you were gonna
tell me when you first came in. What was it?
:49:21
Hmm?
Oh, yeah.
:49:26
- Yeah, I did.
- Shoot.
:49:31
Well, Pa, it's like this.
:49:34
Now, the thing is that I don't
want you to feel bad or anything...
:49:39
and I know what this whole thing means to
you, but the actual, factual matter is...
:49:44
that the...
:49:46
Well, I'm gonna quit
the astronaut program.
:49:54
You're gonna quit?
:49:56
Did these old ears of mine hear Buck
Fleming's boy say he's gonna quit?
:50:00
Now, Pa, I know all about your war record
and I'm darn proud of it; have been for years.
:50:05
But you see... Now, me,
I'm not cut out for it.
:50:10
But, Roy... you can't quit, boy.
:50:13
- Why not, Pa?
- Well...
:50:23
I'm gonna tell you somethin' about
myself that you never heard before.
:50:29
Sit down.
:50:39
Your old man is a fake.
What do you mean?
:50:42
It's my war record. Yeah,
I'm darn proud of it.
:50:45
Well, don't be.
:50:47
You know what I really did
during the Great War?
:50:53
I was a librarian
at Fort Dix.
:50:57
I didn't even leave
the country.
