The Andy Griffith Show (1960–1968): Season 2, Episode 1 - Opie and the Bully - full transcript
Opie is being bullied and intimidated on his way to school by Sheldon. He's forcing Opie to pay a nickel to pass by his street. As Opie asks Andy, Barney and Aunt Bee for nickels Andy becomes aware something is wrong. Barney tails him and discovers the truth. Andy must help Opie stand up for his rights without appearing to interfere.
OH, OPIE, DO YOU HAVE
TO DRAW ON EVERYTHING?
NOW, REMEMBER,
FIRST YOU EAT THE SANDWICH
AND TH YOU EAT
THE APPLE PIE
NOT THE APPLE PIE
AND THEN THE SANDWICH.
YOU UNDERSTAND?
YEAH, I UNDERSTAND
EVEN IF IT DON'T SEEM RIGHT.
WHY DOESN'T IT SEEM RIGHT?
WELL, IF YOU GET FULL
BEFORE YOU FINISH
I'D SURE RATHER LEAVE OVER
THE SANDWICH THAN THE PIE.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHY I WANT YOU
TO DO IT THE OTHER WAY
AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT.
OKAY, AUNT BEE.
CAN I HAVE MY NICKEL
FOR MILK?
MM-HMM.
NOW, REMEMBER
THIS IS FOR MILK
NOT ANOTHER PIECE
OF APPLE PIE.
YOU NE THAT MILK
TO MAKE YOUR BONES HARD.
YES, MA'AM.
NOW, GOOD-BYE, NOW.
BYE, AUNT BEE.
NOW, REMEMBER
THE SANDWICH FIRST
AND THEN THE APPLE PIE?
YES, MA'AM.
GOOD.
PAW?
HMM?
YEAH, SON?
COULD I HAVE A NICKEL
FOR MILK?
WELL, YEAH, I GUESS SO
IF I CAN GET A HOLD
OF ONE HERE.
HERE. THERE YOU ARE.
THANKS, PAW.
OKAY. BE A GOOD BOY, NOW.
I WILL.
AND SHOW THE TEACHER
YOU GOT SOME SMARTS.
OKAY.
OKAY.
BYE.
BYE, SON.
THAT BOY... I DECLARE
HE'S GOT THE SWEETEST
TOOTH I EVER SAW.
[ CHUCKLES ]
YOU KNOW, IF HE
HAD HIS WAY
WHAT HE'D WANT
FOR LUNCH?
TWO SLICES
OF APPLE PIE
BETWEEN TWO PIECES
OF APPLE PIE
AND A SLAB OF APPLE PIE
FOR DESSERT.
WELL, NOW, THAT'S
NOT SURPRISING, AUNT BEE
CONSIDERING
THE GREEN THUMB
YOU GOT
FOR APPLE PIES.
NONSENSE. HE'S JUST
APPLE PIE CRAZY.
YOU KNOW, WHEN I GAVE HIM
HIS NICKEL FOR MILK
I HAD TO REMIND HIM
IT WAS FOR MILK
NOT ANOTHER PIECE
OF APPLE PIE.
OH, THERE'S
ANOTHER PIECE LEFT
IF YOU'D LIKE IT.
OF COURSE, IT DIDN'T
TURN OUT QUITE RIGHT
THIS TIME, DID IT?
MM?
A LITTLE TOO MUCH
CINNAMON? MM?
WELL, I'D SAY
THERE MAYBE WAS
JUST THE LEAST
LITTLE BIT
OF TOO MUCH CINNAMON, YEAH.
OH? YOU THINK SO?
WELL, MAYBE YOUR APPLES
WAS TOO RIPE.
ANDY TAYLOR,
THAT WAS ONE
OF THE BEST APPLE
PIES I EVER MADE!
WELL, NOW, I'LL TELL YA,
SINCE IT WAS SO BAD
MAYBE WE BETTER
EAT IT UP
AND GET IT OUT
OF THE WAY
SO WE'LL MAKE WAY
FOR ANOTHER PIE.
AUNT BEE, YOU'RE
BURIED IN THIS WORLD.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE A LITTLE
BRAGGING, DON'T YOU?
OH, ANDY, STOP IT.
HERE WE ARE.
ONE PIECE LEFT.
I'D BETTER GET
A PLATE.
WHAT IS IT, YOU'RE
A LITTLE FLUSTERED?
OH, STOP IT.
HERE WE ARE.
WONDER WHY HE WANTED
TWO NICKELS.
MM?
OPIE. YOU SAY YOU GIVE
HIM A NICKEL FOR MILK?
YES.
HUH. HE ASKED ME
FOR A NICKEL, TOO.
HE DID?
YEAH.
WHY DO YOU SUPPOSE
HE DID THAT?
MIGHTY GOOD QUESTION,
AUNT BEE.
I'LL HAVE TO SEE
IF I CAN'T GET US
A MIGHTY GOOD ANSWER.
HI, OPIE.
HI.
SHELDON?
YEAH?
YOU WOULDN'T LIKE
TO SORT OF LET ME
PASS BY YOUR STREET
FOR FREE, WOULD YA?
WHY SHOULD I?
WELL, THEN I COULD
GIVE PAW BACK
THE NICKEL
I SORT OF OWE HIM.
WHO'S STOPPING YA?
WELL, IF I GIVE HIM BACK
HIS NICKEL
AND I HAVE TO GIVE YOU
A NICKEL
FOR PASSING BY YOUR STREET
I AIN'T GONNA HAVE
NO NICKEL FOR MILK
AND BOY, SHELDON,
IT AIN'T EASY GETTING
A PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY
SANDWICH DOWN DRY.
YESTERDAY,
I ALMOST CHOKED.
DRINK WATER.
BUT IF I DON'T DRINK MILK,
I'LL GET SOFT BONES.
I SURE WOULD LIKE TO GIVE PAW
BACK HIS NICKEL, SHELDON.
WHAT IF I SAY I WON'T GIVE YOU
THE NICKEL?
A KNUCKLE SANDWICH.
YEAH.
YOU WANT TO TRY IT?
NO.
YOU KNOW WHAT I'LL DO
TO YOU IF YOU TELL ANYONE.
UH-HUH. YOU'LL PULVERIZE ME
THEN YOU'LL KNOCK
MY BLOCK OFF
THEN YOU'LL GIVE ME
THE OLD ONE-TWO
THEN YOU'LL JUMP ON ME.
SEE YA TOMORROW,
OPIE.
HOWDY, SON.
HI, PAW.
SAID YOUR PRAYERS?
YES, SIR.
GOOD.
THOUGHT MAYBE YOU AND ME
MIGHT HAVE US A LITTLE TALK.
OH.
WHAT ABOUT?
MM... FIRST ONE THING,
THEN ANOTHER.
I DON'T KNOW MUCH
ABOUT THEM SUBJECTS.
WELL, SUPPOSE WE TALK
ABOUT SOMETHING YOU DO
KNOW ABOUT, THEN
LIKE, FOR INSTANCE, UH
ASKING ME FOR A NICKEL
FOR MILK THIS MORNING
RIGHT AFTER AUNT BEE
ALREADY GIVE YOU A NICKEL.
OH.
WHAT ABOUT IT?
WELL, I FIGURED THAT WAY
IF I LOST ONE NICKEL
I'D STILL HAVE ONE LEFT
FOR MILK.
OH, I SEE.
YOU WOULDN'T WANT MY BONES
TO GET SOFT, WOULD YA?
COURSE NOT.
BUT, UH...
WHAT MADE YOU THINK
YOU MIGHT LOSE ONE?
OH, YOU KNOW HOW CARELESS
SEVEN-YEAR-OLD BOYS ARE.
YOU KNOW WHAT AUNT BEE SAYS.
IF OUR HEADS WASN'T FASTENED
TO OUR SHOULDERS
WE'D LOSE 'EM.
[ LAUGHS ]
YEAH, I GUESS THAT'S RIGHT.
DID YOU, UH...
DID YOU LOSE ONE?
SORTA.
SORTA? HOW CAN YOU SORTA
LOSE A NICKEL?
WELL, FIRST YOU GOT IT,
THEN YOU AIN'T.
WELL, WHY?
I...
I SURE AM SLEEPY,
PAW.
FINE, FINE.
TELL ME NOW HOW YOU SORTA
LOST THAT NICKEL
AND YOU CAN QUIET UP
AND GO RIGHT TO SLEEP.
GOLLY, PAW.
A GROWING BOY'S GOT TO HAVE
HIS SLEEP.
OPIE...
I MUST BE GROWING
AWFUL FAST.
I CAN'T HARDLY
KEEP MY EYES OPEN.
OPIE...
[ IMITATES SNORING ]
OPE...
NIGHT, SON.
Barney: MAYBE HE DID
LOSE THE NICKEL, ANDY.
YOU KNOW HOW CARELESS
SEVEN-YEAR-OLD BOYS ARE.
COURSE I KNOW.
OPIE TOLD ME.
ONLY HOW'D HE KNOW
HE WAS GONNA LOSE IT?
WELL, MAYBE HE HAD ONE
OF THEM, UH...
YOU KNOW, THOSE FLASHES
WHERE YOU KNOW WHAT'S GONNA
HAPPEN BEFORE IT HAPPENS.
PREMONITION?
YEAH, THAT'S IT.
PREMONITION.
I DON'T THINK SO.
YEAH?
WELL... ME NEITHER.
MM-HMM?
SO WHAT'D YOU
MENTION IT FOR?
OH, I DON'T KNOW.
MAYBE I FIGURED
I COULD CONVINCE
MYSELF, TOO.
BARNEY, WHAT ARE YOU
GETTING AT?
WELL, I WASN'T GOING
TO SAY NOTHING
BUT I GUESS I BETTER.
HE STOPPED IN HERE
THIS MORNING
BEFORE YOU GOT HERE.
OPIE DID?
YEAH. WANTED TO KNOW
DID I HAVE A NICKEL
I WASN'T USING.
HE DID? WHY,
I SAW AUNT BEE GIVE...
HE SAY WHAT HE WANTED IT FOR?
NO. I ASKED HIM
BUT HE JUST HEMMED
AND HAWED AROUND
AND SHIFTED FROM ONE
FOOT TO THE OTHER
AND I DIDN'T PRESS IT.
YEAH.
THAT'S THE REASON I DIDN'T
PUSH IT HARDER LAST NIGHT.
SO HE'S HOLDING
SOMETHING BACK, AIN'T HE?
MM-HMM.
HMM.
YOU AIN'T GOT NO IDEA
WHAT IT IS, HUH?
NOT THE FIRST.
MYSTERY TO ME.
A MYSTERY, HUH?
BARNEY, ARE YOU SURE?
IT WAS AS PLAIN AS
THE NOSE ON YOUR FACE.
IT COULDN'T HAVE
BEEN NOTHING ELSE!
IT'S JUST PLAIN
EXTORTION'S WHAT IT IS!
THAT WOULD EXPLAIN IT,
WOULDN'T IT?
HE'S TOO SCARED
NOT TO GIVE HIM THE NICKEL
AND TOO ASHAMED
TO TELL ME ABOUT IT.
WHY DON'T I GO TO THAT BOY'S
HOME AND TELL HIS DADDY.
NO, NO. I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL
AND THAT WOULD SETTLE IT
FOR NOW
BUT WHAT HAPPENS THE NEXT TIME
SOMEBODY GOES
PUSHING OPIE AROUND?
DO YOU AND ME RUN IN
AND SOLVE IT FOR HIM?
WELL, ANDY,
HE'S SCARED.
WELL, I MEAN THE OTHER BOY
IS SO MUCH TOUGHER.
WHY DON'T I GIVE
OPIE SOME LESSONS?
LOOK-- JAB, JAB,
CHOP AND SMACK!
NO, NO, BARNEY.
IT'S NOT LESSONS
IN FIGHTING HE NEEDS.
I JUST DON'T WANT HIM
TO BE AFRAID.
I DON'T WANT HIM TO BE
THE KIND OF BOY
THAT GOES AROUND
LOOKING FOR FIGHTS
BUT I DON'T WANT HIM
TO RUN FROM ONE
WHEN HE'S IN THE RIGHT.
YEAH.
WELL, HOW YOU GOING
TO DO IT, ANDY?
YOU CAN'T LET HIM KNOW
YOU KNOW.
HE FEELS BAD ENOUGH
AS IT IS.
HE'LL FEEL
JUST TERRIBLE
IF HE THINKS
YOU KNOW HE'S...
WELL, SCARED.
YEAH. HMM.
YEAH.
HMM.
WELL, I RECKON
I'LL JUST HAVE
TO FIGURE A WAY, WON'T I?
YEAH.
OH, BOY,
I GOT ANOTHER ONE!
REEL HIM IN,
REEL HIM IN RIGHT QUICK.
OH, BOY,
AIN'T HE A WHOPPER!
WOW, IS HE PRETTY!
MM-MM!
BOY, AIN'T HE A WHOPPER?
HE REALLY IS A WHOPPER.
JUMPIN' AROUND THERE
WHERE I CAN'T
GET A HOLD OF HIM.
FIGHTIN' LIKE THAT,
HE'LL BE GOOD TO EAT, WON'T HE?
YEAH, I BET HE WILL.
YEAH, LOOKA THERE,
LOOKA THERE.
WELL, WE 'BOUT
GOT OUR LIMIT.
WE BETTER BE
A-HEADIN' ON BACK.
AUNT BEE'LL WONDER
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO US.
PUT ON YOUR SNEAKERS.
OKAY, PAW.
BOY, PAW, YOU SURE DO
KNOW THE BEST PLACES.
HOW'D YOU EVER
FIND THIS SPOT?
AW...
AW, I JUST...
WELL, NOW, THAT'S A RIGHT
INTERESTIN' STORY, OPE.
IT IS, PAW?
IT SURELY IS.
SEE, I FIRST COME UP
ON THIS SPOT
WHEN I WAS A LITTLE FELLER,
NOT MUCH BIGGER'N YOU.
REALLY, PAW?
YEAH.
COME ON HER ACCIDENTAL-LIKE
ONE DAY
DECIDED I'D GIVE HER A TRY.
THREW IN MY LINE-- WHAM.
GOT ONE ALMOST AS BIG
AS THAT'N YOU GOT THERE.
THREW HER IN AGAIN.
WHAM!
SEE-SEEM LIKE I'D STUMBLED
RIGHT ON THE SPOT
WHERE ALL THE FISH
IN THE RIVER COME
TO SORTA TALK THINGS OVER.
A FISHES COMMUNITY CENTER,
YOU MIGHT SAY.
BOY!
YEAH.
WELL, KNOWIN' I HAD ME
A GOOD THING
I KEPT HER A SECRET.
THE OTHER FELLAS
WOULD GO FISHIN'--
I'D-I'D SORTA SNEAK AWAY
AND WE'D MEET LATER
AND THEY'D HAVE TWO OR THREE
LITTLE BITTY THINGS
AND I'D HAVE
A STRING OF WHALES.
TH-THEY WAS SO JEALOUS
YOU COULD SMELL IT.
YEAH, I BET THEY WAS.
YOU'D BET RIGHT, TOO.
YEAH.
WELL, ONE DAY, ONE DAY
I SNUCK AWAY TO MY SECRET SPOT.
I HADN'T NO MORE'N
GOTTEN MY LINE IN
WHEN WHAT DO YOU RECKON I SAW?
WHAT?
HODIE SNITCH WAS STANDIN' THERE.
HODIE SNITCH? WHO'S HE?
TOUGH LITTLE FELLA
THAT USED TO LIVE IN THIS TOWN
A LONG TIME AGO.
SEEMS HE SNUCK RIGHT AFTER ME
WHEN I SNUCK AWAY.
DIRTY SNEAK.
YEAH.
YEAH.
HE WAS SNEAKY
BUT THAT AIN'T
THE WORST OF IT.
HE SAYS TO ME--
HO-HODIE SAYS--
HE SAYS-HE SAYS,
"BEAT IT, BOY."
HE SAYS, "FROM NOW ON,
THIS HERE IS MY SPOT."
SAYS, "IF-IF I CATCH
YOU FISHIN' HERE AGAIN
"I'M GONNA TEAR YOU
INTO LITTLE BITTY PIECES
AND USE YOU FOR BAIT."
WHAT'D YOU DO, PAW?
WHAT'D YOU DO?
I LEFT.
IT SHAMES ME
TO SAY IT, SON
BUT I PICKED MYSELF UP
AND I CRAWLED OUTTA THERE
LIKE I WAS A WHIPPED PUP
WHICH I WAS.
HOW COME, PAW?
WHY DIDN'T YOU MAKE HIM
CRAWL OUTTA THERE
LIKE A WHIPPED PUP?
'CAUSE HE ACTED TOUGH
AND I WAS SCARED OF HIM.
BUT IT WAS...
OH.
SOME FELLERS SURE TALK TOUGH,
DON'T THEY, PAW?
THEY SURELY DO
ONLY YOU KNOW
WHAT I FOUND OUT?
WHAT?
I FOUND OUT THAT
TOUGH TALK'S JUST TALK.
SIT DOWN ON THAT LOG THERE,
AND LET ME FIX YOUR SHOE.
YOU DID?
DID WHAT?
FOUND OUT
THAT TOUGH TALK'S JUST TALK.
I SURELY DID.
HOW?
WELL, I GOT TO FEELIN' BAD
MIGHTY BAD.
YOU KNOW WHY?
'CAUSE HE TOOK AWAY
YOUR MILK MONEY.
I MEAN, YOUR FISHIN' SPOT.
YEAH, THAT WAS IT--
AT FIRST--
AND THEN, IT GOT TO BE
FOR A DIFFERENT REASON.
I GOT TO FEELIN' MIGHTY ASHAMED
BECAUSE I WAS TOO SCARED
TO PROTECT
WHAT WAS RIGHTFULLY MINE.
MIGHTY ASHAMED.
YEAH.
YEAH.
I'M TELLIN' YOU,
YOU'RE LOOKIN' AT A FELLA
THAT FELT LOWER
THAN A TWO-FACED,
SNIVELING, CRAWLING --
LILY-LIVERED?
HOW'D YOU KNOW?
I GOT A PRETTY
GOOD IMAGINATION.
WELL, YOU IMAGINE
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.
I FELT SO LOW THAT
A LITTLE, BITTY ANT
COULDN'T HAVE
WALKED UNDER ME.
AND I TRIED, AND I
TRIED EVERY WAY I KNEW
TO GET SHUT
OF THAT FEELING
BUT I JUST KEPT FEELIN'
LOWER AND LOWER
AND THEN ONE DAY,
ONE DAY WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL
THE TEACHER
WAS TELLIN' US YOUNG'UNS
ABOUT HOW THIS COUNTRY
OF OURS BEGUN
AND SHE TOLD US
ABOUT THIS FELLA
THAT SAYS-SAYS,
"MILLIONS FOR CHARITY
BUT NOT ONE PENNY FOR TRIBUTE"
AND THEN SHE EXPLAINED
TO US WHAT THAT MEANT.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN, PAW?
WELL, THAT-THAT MEANS
THAT-THAT IT'S-IT'S
FINE AND DANDY
TO GIVE AWAY SOMETHIN'
BECAUSE YOU WANT TO
BUT N BECAUSE
YOU'RE SCARED
THE OTHER FELLA'S
GONNA GIVE YOU
A PUNCH IN THE NOSE
IF YOU DON'T.
YOU KNOW WHAT I DID?
I GOT MY FISHIN' GEAR
AND I MARCHED MYSELF RIGHT DOWN
TO MY OLD FISHIN' HOLE.
YOU DID?
I DID.
AND THERE WAS HODIE...
TOUGH GUY HODIE--
AND YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED?
HE GOT SCARED AND RAN AWAY.
NOPE.
HE DID JUST EXACTLY
LIKE HE PROMISED HE WOULD.
A KNUCKLE SANDWICH?
RIGHT ON THE NOSE.
OH.
YOU KNOW WHAT I DID?
I LAUGHED.
YOU DID? HOW COME?
BECAUSE IT COME TO ME
THAT WHAT I'D BEEN SO SCARED OF
WASN'T REALLY WORTH
BEIN' SCARED OF AT ALL.
I DIDN'T EVEN FEEL
THAT KNUCKLE SANDWICH.
YOU DIDN'T?
NOT A BIT
AND I LIT INTO HIM
LIKE A WINDMILL IN A TORNADO.
WHAT HAPPENED?
ME AND YOU FISHED THAT SPOT,
DIDN'T WE?
YEAH.
YEAH.
OKAY, COME ON.
PAW, YOU SAY YOU
DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT?
NOPE.
PAW?

PAW?
YES, SON?
DID IT BLEED MUCH?
PAW?
HMM?
GOOD MORNIN', SON.
PAW?
UH-HUH?
COULD YOU TAKE THIS DOWN
TO THE COURTHOUSE
AND HOLD IT THERE FOR ME?
WELL, I GUESS I COULD.
WHAT YOU WANT ME
TO DO THAT FOR?
WELL, IF SOMETHIN' WAS
TO HAPPEN
THAT GOT MY CLOTHES
TORE AND MESSY
I FIGURED I COULD GO OVER
TO THE COURTHOUSE AND CHANGE
SO'S AUNT BEE
WON'T KNOW ABOUT IT.
OH, I SEE.
YOU KNOW HOW SHE IS
WHEN A FELLA GETS HIS CLOTHES
TORE AND MESSY.
SHE SURE DOES KICK UP A FUSS,
DON'T SHE?
SHE SURE DOES.
WELL, I GUESS THAT'S
A PRETTY GOOD REASON.
THEY'LL BE AT THE COURTHOUSE,
WAITIN' FOR YA.
THANKS, PAW.
YOU SURE
YOU DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT?
DO YOU THINK
IT'S HAPPENED YET?
NO. HE'S LEAVIN'
THE HOUSE ABOUT NOW.
POOR LITTLE FELLER.
YEAH.
WELL, I GUESS I'LL BE
RUNNIN' ALONG.
BARNEY?
HUH?
JUST STAY RIGHT HERE.
OKAY, ANDY.
I EXPECT HE IS JUST ABOUT
TURNIN' THE CORNER
AT FIFTH AND ELM NOW.
YEAH.
THREE MORE BLOCKS.
YEAH.
YEAH.
THREE MORE BLOCKS.
WELL, I GUESS I'LL DO
A LITTLE PATROLLIN'...
BARNEY!
I WANNA WATCH, ANDY.
YOU'LL SPOIL EVERYTHING
IF YOU WATCH.
YEAH, I...
I GUESS SO.
DID YOU EVER DO ANYTHING
THAT YOU WONDERED
IF YOU WAS DOING
THE RIGHT THING?
YEAH.
COME ON, OPIE,
HAND IT OVER.
WE'RE GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL.
ARE YA OR AIN'T YA?
I HOPE YOU WAS TELLIN' ME
THE TRUTH, PAW.
[ DOOR SLAMS OPEN ]
OPIE!
OPIE, SON,
YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH, PAW.
AIN'T IT A BEAUT?
[ BARNEY AND ANDY LAUGHING ]
IT SURE IS.
TELL THE TRUTH, BARNEY
DID YOU EVER SEE A PURTIER ONE
IN ALL YOUR BORN DAYS?
NO, ANDY, I AIN'T NEVER
SEEN A PURTIER ONE
IN ALL MY BORN DAYS.
AND YOU WERE RIGHT--
I DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT.
YOU DIDN'T?
YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE,
BARNEY?
WHAT?
I LAUGHED.
DID YOU?
YEAH, JUST LIKE YOU, PAW.
I LAUGHED
AND SAILED INTO HIM
LIKE A WINDMILL
IN A TORNADO.
SOUNDS LIKE YOU AIN'T
STOPPED BLOWIN' EITHER.
YEAH.
AND HERE'S
YOUR NICKEL, BARNEY.
OH, THANKS, OPE.
AND HERE'S YOURS, PAW.
WHY THANK YOU, SON.
YOU'RE WELCOME.
WANNA KNOW SOMETHIN', PAW?
WHAT?
A SANDWICH SURE
TASTES BETTER
WITH MILK.
YOU THINK MAYBE IT'LL SPREAD
OVER TO THE OTHER EYE, PAW?
AND MAYBE MY NOSE WILL
SWELL UP SOME, HUH, PAW, HUH?
WELL...
HERE IT IS, ANDY.
OH, GOOD.
MUCH OBLIGED, BARN.
HOW LONG DO YOU THINK
IT'LL LAST, PAW?
I MEAN, IF I TAKE CARE
OF IT AND DON'T WASH IT.
YOU AIN'T GONNA PUT THAT
ON MY EYE, ARE YOU, PAW?
SURE, IT'LL TAKE
THE STING OUT.
THE COLOR, TOO?
WELL...
AND THE SWELLING?
YEAH, I GUESS SO.
OH.
UH, THE SOONER YOU PUT THAT ON,
THE QUICKER SHE WORKS.
YEAH, I SUPPOSE SO.
I-I DON'T KNOW, BARNEY.
IF A FELLA GETS A MEDAL,
IT AIN'T RIGHT TO ASK
HIM TO HIDE IT.
SON, IF YOU
TAKE CARE OF THAT,
IT COULD BE THAT
IT'LL LAST A WEEK OR TWO.
GEE, THANKS, PAW.
[ CHUCKLES ]
TO DRAW ON EVERYTHING?
NOW, REMEMBER,
FIRST YOU EAT THE SANDWICH
AND TH YOU EAT
THE APPLE PIE
NOT THE APPLE PIE
AND THEN THE SANDWICH.
YOU UNDERSTAND?
YEAH, I UNDERSTAND
EVEN IF IT DON'T SEEM RIGHT.
WHY DOESN'T IT SEEM RIGHT?
WELL, IF YOU GET FULL
BEFORE YOU FINISH
I'D SURE RATHER LEAVE OVER
THE SANDWICH THAN THE PIE.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHY I WANT YOU
TO DO IT THE OTHER WAY
AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT.

FOOT TO THE OTHER
AND I DIDN'T PRESS IT.
YEAH.
THAT'S THE REASON I DIDN'T
PUSH IT HARDER LAST NIGHT.
SO HE'S HOLDING
SOMETHING BACK, AIN'T HE?
MM-HMM.
HMM.
YOU AIN'T GOT NO IDEA
WHAT IT IS, HUH?
NOT THE FIRST.
MYSTERY TO ME.
A MYSTERY, HUH?
BARNEY, ARE YOU SURE?
IT WAS AS PLAIN AS
THE NOSE ON YOUR FACE.
IT COULDN'T HAVE
BEEN NOTHING ELSE!
IT'S JUST PLAIN
EXTORTION'S WHAT IT IS!
THAT WOULD EXPLAIN IT,
WOULDN'T IT?
HE'S TOO SCARED
NOT TO GIVE HIM THE NICKEL
AND TOO ASHAMED
TO TELL ME ABOUT IT.
WHY DON'T I GO TO THAT BOY'S
HOME AND TELL HIS DADDY.
NO, NO. I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL
AND THAT WOULD SETTLE IT
FOR NOW
BUT WHAT HAPPENS THE NEXT TIME
SOMEBODY GOES
PUSHING OPIE AROUND?
DO YOU AND ME RUN IN
AND SOLVE IT FOR HIM?
WELL, ANDY,
HE'S SCARED.
WELL, I MEAN THE OTHER BOY
IS SO MUCH TOUGHER.
WHY DON'T I GIVE
OPIE SOME LESSONS?
LOOK-- JAB, JAB,
CHOP AND SMACK!
NO, NO, BARNEY.
IT'S NOT LESSONS
IN FIGHTING HE NEEDS.
I JUST DON'T WANT HIM
TO BE AFRAID.
I DON'T WANT HIM TO BE
THE KIND OF BOY
THAT GOES AROUND
LOOKING FOR FIGHTS
BUT I DON'T WANT HIM
TO RUN FROM ONE
WHEN HE'S IN THE RIGHT.
YEAH.
WELL, HOW YOU GOING
TO DO IT, ANDY?
YOU CAN'T LET HIM KNOW
YOU KNOW.
HE FEELS BAD ENOUGH
AS IT IS.
HE'LL FEEL
JUST TERRIBLE
IF HE THINKS
YOU KNOW HE'S...
WELL, SCARED.
YEAH. HMM.
YEAH.
HMM.
WELL, I RECKON
I'LL JUST HAVE
TO FIGURE A WAY, WON'T I?
YEAH.
OH, BOY,
I GOT ANOTHER ONE!
REEL HIM IN,
REEL HIM IN RIGHT QUICK.
OH, BOY,
AIN'T HE A WHOPPER!
WOW, IS HE PRETTY!
MM-MM!
BOY, AIN'T HE A WHOPPER?
HE REALLY IS A WHOPPER.
JUMPIN' AROUND THERE
WHERE I CAN'T
GET A HOLD OF HIM.
FIGHTIN' LIKE THAT,
HE'LL BE GOOD TO EAT, WON'T HE?
YEAH, I BET HE WILL.
YEAH, LOOKA THERE,
LOOKA THERE.
WELL, WE 'BOUT
GOT OUR LIMIT.
WE BETTER BE
A-HEADIN' ON BACK.
AUNT BEE'LL WONDER
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO US.
PUT ON YOUR SNEAKERS.
OKAY, PAW.
BOY, PAW, YOU SURE DO
KNOW THE BEST PLACES.
HOW'D YOU EVER
FIND THIS SPOT?
AW...
AW, I JUST...
WELL, NOW, THAT'S A RIGHT
INTERESTIN' STORY, OPE.
IT IS, PAW?
IT SURELY IS.
SEE, I FIRST COME UP
ON THIS SPOT
WHEN I WAS A LITTLE FELLER,
NOT MUCH BIGGER'N YOU.
REALLY, PAW?
YEAH.
COME ON HER ACCIDENTAL-LIKE
ONE DAY
DECIDED I'D GIVE HER A TRY.
THREW IN MY LINE-- WHAM.
GOT ONE ALMOST AS BIG
AS THAT'N YOU GOT THERE.
THREW HER IN AGAIN.
WHAM!
SEE-SEEM LIKE I'D STUMBLED
RIGHT ON THE SPOT
WHERE ALL THE FISH
IN THE RIVER COME
TO SORTA TALK THINGS OVER.
A FISHES COMMUNITY CENTER,
YOU MIGHT SAY.
BOY!
YEAH.
WELL, KNOWIN' I HAD ME
A GOOD THING
I KEPT HER A SECRET.
THE OTHER FELLAS
WOULD GO FISHIN'--
I'D-I'D SORTA SNEAK AWAY
AND WE'D MEET LATER
AND THEY'D HAVE TWO OR THREE
LITTLE BITTY THINGS
AND I'D HAVE
A STRING OF WHALES.
TH-THEY WAS SO JEALOUS
YOU COULD SMELL IT.
YEAH, I BET THEY WAS.
YOU'D BET RIGHT, TOO.
YEAH.
WELL, ONE DAY, ONE DAY
I SNUCK AWAY TO MY SECRET SPOT.
I HADN'T NO MORE'N
GOTTEN MY LINE IN
WHEN WHAT DO YOU RECKON I SAW?
WHAT?
HODIE SNITCH WAS STANDIN' THERE.
HODIE SNITCH? WHO'S HE?
TOUGH LITTLE FELLA
THAT USED TO LIVE IN THIS TOWN
A LONG TIME AGO.
SEEMS HE SNUCK RIGHT AFTER ME
WHEN I SNUCK AWAY.
DIRTY SNEAK.
YEAH.
YEAH.
HE WAS SNEAKY
BUT THAT AIN'T
THE WORST OF IT.
HE SAYS TO ME--
HO-HODIE SAYS--
HE SAYS-HE SAYS,
"BEAT IT, BOY."
HE SAYS, "FROM NOW ON,
THIS HERE IS MY SPOT."
SAYS, "IF-IF I CATCH
YOU FISHIN' HERE AGAIN
"I'M GONNA TEAR YOU
INTO LITTLE BITTY PIECES
AND USE YOU FOR BAIT."
WHAT'D YOU DO, PAW?
WHAT'D YOU DO?
I LEFT.
IT SHAMES ME
TO SAY IT, SON
BUT I PICKED MYSELF UP
AND I CRAWLED OUTTA THERE
LIKE I WAS A WHIPPED PUP
WHICH I WAS.
HOW COME, PAW?
WHY DIDN'T YOU MAKE HIM
CRAWL OUTTA THERE
LIKE A WHIPPED PUP?
'CAUSE HE ACTED TOUGH
AND I WAS SCARED OF HIM.
BUT IT WAS...
OH.
SOME FELLERS SURE TALK TOUGH,
DON'T THEY, PAW?
THEY SURELY DO
ONLY YOU KNOW
WHAT I FOUND OUT?
WHAT?
I FOUND OUT THAT
TOUGH TALK'S JUST TALK.
SIT DOWN ON THAT LOG THERE,
AND LET ME FIX YOUR SHOE.
YOU DID?
DID WHAT?
FOUND OUT
THAT TOUGH TALK'S JUST TALK.
I SURELY DID.
HOW?
WELL, I GOT TO FEELIN' BAD
MIGHTY BAD.
YOU KNOW WHY?
'CAUSE HE TOOK AWAY
YOUR MILK MONEY.
I MEAN, YOUR FISHIN' SPOT.
YEAH, THAT WAS IT--
AT FIRST--
AND THEN, IT GOT TO BE
FOR A DIFFERENT REASON.
I GOT TO FEELIN' MIGHTY ASHAMED
BECAUSE I WAS TOO SCARED
TO PROTECT
WHAT WAS RIGHTFULLY MINE.
MIGHTY ASHAMED.
YEAH.
YEAH.
I'M TELLIN' YOU,
YOU'RE LOOKIN' AT A FELLA
THAT FELT LOWER
THAN A TWO-FACED,
SNIVELING, CRAWLING --
LILY-LIVERED?
HOW'D YOU KNOW?
I GOT A PRETTY
GOOD IMAGINATION.
WELL, YOU IMAGINE
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.
I FELT SO LOW THAT
A LITTLE, BITTY ANT
COULDN'T HAVE
WALKED UNDER ME.
AND I TRIED, AND I
TRIED EVERY WAY I KNEW
TO GET SHUT
OF THAT FEELING
BUT I JUST KEPT FEELIN'
LOWER AND LOWER
AND THEN ONE DAY,
ONE DAY WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL
THE TEACHER
WAS TELLIN' US YOUNG'UNS
ABOUT HOW THIS COUNTRY
OF OURS BEGUN
AND SHE TOLD US
ABOUT THIS FELLA
THAT SAYS-SAYS,
"MILLIONS FOR CHARITY
BUT NOT ONE PENNY FOR TRIBUTE"
AND THEN SHE EXPLAINED
TO US WHAT THAT MEANT.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN, PAW?
WELL, THAT-THAT MEANS
THAT-THAT IT'S-IT'S
FINE AND DANDY
TO GIVE AWAY SOMETHIN'
BECAUSE YOU WANT TO
BUT N BECAUSE
YOU'RE SCARED
THE OTHER FELLA'S
GONNA GIVE YOU
A PUNCH IN THE NOSE
IF YOU DON'T.
YOU KNOW WHAT I DID?
I GOT MY FISHIN' GEAR
AND I MARCHED MYSELF RIGHT DOWN
TO MY OLD FISHIN' HOLE.
YOU DID?
I DID.
AND THERE WAS HODIE...
TOUGH GUY HODIE--
AND YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED?
HE GOT SCARED AND RAN AWAY.
NOPE.
HE DID JUST EXACTLY
LIKE HE PROMISED HE WOULD.
A KNUCKLE SANDWICH?
RIGHT ON THE NOSE.
OH.
YOU KNOW WHAT I DID?
I LAUGHED.
YOU DID? HOW COME?
BECAUSE IT COME TO ME
THAT WHAT I'D BEEN SO SCARED OF
WASN'T REALLY WORTH
BEIN' SCARED OF AT ALL.
I DIDN'T EVEN FEEL
THAT KNUCKLE SANDWICH.
YOU DIDN'T?
NOT A BIT
AND I LIT INTO HIM
LIKE A WINDMILL IN A TORNADO.
WHAT HAPPENED?
ME AND YOU FISHED THAT SPOT,
DIDN'T WE?
YEAH.
YEAH.
OKAY, COME ON.
PAW, YOU SAY YOU
DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT?
NOPE.
PAW?
YES, SON?
YOU LAUGHED?
YOU REALLY LAUGHED?
PAW?
YES, SON?
DID IT BLEED MUCH?
PAW?
HMM?
GOOD MORNIN', SON.
PAW?
UH-HUH?
COULD YOU TAKE THIS DOWN
TO THE COURTHOUSE
AND HOLD IT THERE FOR ME?
WELL, I GUESS I COULD.
WHAT YOU WANT ME
TO DO THAT FOR?
WELL, IF SOMETHIN' WAS
TO HAPPEN
THAT GOT MY CLOTHES
TORE AND MESSY
I FIGURED I COULD GO OVER
TO THE COURTHOUSE AND CHANGE
SO'S AUNT BEE
WON'T KNOW ABOUT IT.
OH, I SEE.
YOU KNOW HOW SHE IS
WHEN A FELLA GETS HIS CLOTHES
TORE AND MESSY.
SHE SURE DOES KICK UP A FUSS,
DON'T SHE?
SHE SURE DOES.
WELL, I GUESS THAT'S
A PRETTY GOOD REASON.
THEY'LL BE AT THE COURTHOUSE,
WAITIN' FOR YA.
THANKS, PAW.
YOU SURE
YOU DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT?
DO YOU THINK
IT'S HAPPENED YET?
NO. HE'S LEAVIN'
THE HOUSE ABOUT NOW.
POOR LITTLE FELLER.
YEAH.
WELL, I GUESS I'LL BE
RUNNIN' ALONG.
BARNEY?
HUH?
JUST STAY RIGHT HERE.
OKAY, ANDY.
I EXPECT HE IS JUST ABOUT
TURNIN' THE CORNER
AT FIFTH AND ELM NOW.
YEAH.
THREE MORE BLOCKS.
YEAH.
YEAH.
THREE MORE BLOCKS.
WELL, I GUESS I'LL DO
A LITTLE PATROLLIN'...
BARNEY!
I WANNA WATCH, ANDY.
YOU'LL SPOIL EVERYTHING
IF YOU WATCH.
YEAH, I...
I GUESS SO.
DID YOU EVER DO ANYTHING
THAT YOU WONDERED
IF YOU WAS DOING
THE RIGHT THING?
YEAH.
COME ON, OPIE,
HAND IT OVER.
WE'RE GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL.
ARE YA OR AIN'T YA?
I HOPE YOU WAS TELLIN' ME
THE TRUTH, PAW.
[ DOOR SLAMS OPEN ]
OPIE!
OPIE, SON,
YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH, PAW.
AIN'T IT A BEAUT?
[ BARNEY AND ANDY LAUGHING ]
IT SURE IS.
TELL THE TRUTH, BARNEY
DID YOU EVER SEE A PURTIER ONE
IN ALL YOUR BORN DAYS?
NO, ANDY, I AIN'T NEVER
SEEN A PURTIER ONE
IN ALL MY BORN DAYS.
AND YOU WERE RIGHT--
I DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT.
YOU DIDN'T?
YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE,
BARNEY?
WHAT?
I LAUGHED.
DID YOU?
YEAH, JUST LIKE YOU, PAW.
I LAUGHED
AND SAILED INTO HIM
LIKE A WINDMILL
IN A TORNADO.
SOUNDS LIKE YOU AIN'T
STOPPED BLOWIN' EITHER.
YEAH.
AND HERE'S
YOUR NICKEL, BARNEY.
OH, THANKS, OPE.
AND HERE'S YOURS, PAW.
WHY THANK YOU, SON.
YOU'RE WELCOME.
WANNA KNOW SOMETHIN', PAW?
WHAT?
A SANDWICH SURE
TASTES BETTER
WITH MILK.
YOU THINK MAYBE IT'LL SPREAD
OVER TO THE OTHER EYE, PAW?
AND MAYBE MY NOSE WILL
SWELL UP SOME, HUH, PAW, HUH?
WELL...
HERE IT IS, ANDY.
OH, GOOD.
MUCH OBLIGED, BARN.
HOW LONG DO YOU THINK
IT'LL LAST, PAW?
I MEAN, IF I TAKE CARE
OF IT AND DON'T WASH IT.
YOU AIN'T GONNA PUT THAT
ON MY EYE, ARE YOU, PAW?
SURE, IT'LL TAKE
THE STING OUT.
THE COLOR, TOO?
WELL...
AND THE SWELLING?
YEAH, I GUESS SO.
OH.
UH, THE SOONER YOU PUT THAT ON,
THE QUICKER SHE WORKS.
YEAH, I SUPPOSE SO.
I-I DON'T KNOW, BARNEY.
IF A FELLA GETS A MEDAL,
IT AIN'T RIGHT TO ASK
HIM TO HIDE IT.
SON, IF YOU
TAKE CARE OF THAT,
IT COULD BE THAT
IT'LL LAST A WEEK OR TWO.
GEE, THANKS, PAW.
