The Andy Griffith Show (1960–1968): Season 2, Episode 23 - Aunt Bee the Warden - full transcript
With the jail full after the arrest of the four Gordon brothers for moonshining, Andy is faced with what to do with Otis when he shows up after his weekly drunk. The Gordons are angry with Otis for having changed liquor suppliers so leaving him with them is out of the question. Left with little choice, he takes Otis home with him to serve his sentence. Aunt Bee is a little disconcerted at first but when Andy tells her that she's in charge of the prisoner, she takes to making him do chores around the house like washing floors and windows, cutting the grass and chopping wood. Otis takes to calling her the Warden and has worked so hard that he swears off liquor.
ALL RIGHT, BOYS, COME ON. LET'S GET OUT.
COME ON, COME ON.
ALL RIGHT, COME ON. OUT.
YOU GOT PRISONERS?
YEAH. I GOT FOUR.
WHAT HAPPENED

KIDS ALWAYS HANGING AROUND.
GREAT WORK, CHIEF.
WHO ARE THEY? WHAT'D

502? 626? 308?
WANT ME TO SEND
OUT AN A.P.B.?
ALL POINTS BULLETIN, BARNEY?
THEY'RE ALREADY HERE.
THEY'RE CAPTURED.
UNLOCK THE OTHERS.
WELL, COME ON, CHIEF, GIVE.
WHAT'S THE SCOOP?
WELL, BARNEY, THESE HERE ARE
THE GORDON BOYS.
THEY'RE THE OWNERS
AND PROPRIETORS OF THAT STILL
WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR
UP AT FRANKLIN HOLLER.
FRANKLIN HOLLER?
WELL, THE OLD
FRANKLIN HOLLER STILL, HUH?
WELL, YOU GUYS
OUGHT TO KNOW
WE'D CATCH UP TO YOU
SOONER OR LATER.
LOCK 'EM UP, BARN.
YEAH. COME ON.
MOVE. GET IN THERE.
MOVE. YOU TWO IN THERE.
COME ON, COME ON.
NOW, IN CASE YOU BIRDS
GET ANY IDEAS
ABOUT BREAKING OUT OF HERE,
I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING
YOU OUGHT TO KNOW.
THIS IS A MAXIMUM
SECURITY PRISON.
UH, HEY, BARN?
MAYBE WE OUGHT
TO MAKE IT
A LITTLE MORE MAXIMUM
BY MOVING THE KEY.
MOVING THE KEY.
I WAS JUST, UH,
JUST GONNA DO THAT.
WELL, I WAS.
SURE IS GOOD TO BE DOING
A CAPACITY BUSINESS,
HUH, SHERIFF?
BOTH THESE BABIES FILLED UP.
WELL, I'LL TELL YOU THE TRUTH,
I'D AS SOON SEE
THEM CELLS EMPTY.
THAT WAY WE KNOW
LAW AND ORDER'S BEING OBSERVED.
WELL, YEAH. I SUPPOSE
YOU CAN LOOK AT IT THAT WAY.
[ SINGING ]
OH, OTIS IS ON
ANOTHER TOOT.
[ SINGING ]
HEY, WHO'S IN MY ROOM?
BARNEY, I DEMAND TO HAVE
THE ROOM I'M ACCUSTOMED TO.
YOU'LL GET ALONG
FINE WITH THESE BOYS.
YOU'VE BEEN BUYING
MOON FROM THEM FOR YEARS.
SO?
JUST WAIT RIGHT THERE.
I'LL GET THE KEY.
THIS IS MY ROOM. OUT!
DON'T YOU TALK TO US,
YOU DIRTY DOUBLE CROSSER!
WHAT?!
YOU STOOL PIGEON!
YOU'RE THE ONE THAT PUT
THE FINGER ON US, AIN'T YA?
OH, WHY WOULD I DO THAT?
WHY? BECAUSE YOU'RE
PALSY WITH THE SHERIFF HERE.
YOU BEEN OUT TO GET US
EVER SINCE WE RAISED OUR PRICES!
THAT IS A FALSEHOOD.
THEN WHY HAVEN'T YOU BEEN
BUYING MOON FROM US?!
WELL, IT AIN'T BECAUSE
YOU RAISED THE PRICE.
IT'S 'CAUSE YOU LOWERED
THE QUALITY.
JUST DOESN'T HAVE
THE ZI IT USED TO HAVE,
AND BESIDES,
I FOUND SOMEBODY WHO DELIVERS.
WELL, I'M SORRY YOU WON'T
HAVE ANY PRIVACY, OTIS,
BUT I DON'T RECKON IT'LL
HURT YOU THIS ONCE.
SHERIFF, PUT HIM IN
MY CELL, PLEASE!
OH, NO. I WANT HIM
OVER HERE WITH ME!
[ ALL YELLING ]
HOLD IT! HOLD IT!
[ WHISTLE BLOWING ]
LISTEN TO THE SHERIFF!
BARNEY, HE AIN'T GONNA
PUT ME IN THERE, IS HE?
BARNEY, I'M AFRAID WE CAN'T PUT
OTIS IN THE SAME JAIL WITH THEM.
WELL, ANDY,
IT'S THE ONLY JAIL WE GOT.
COULDN'T WE DOUBLE 'EM UP
AND PUT THE GORDON BOYS
IN THAT CELL
AND-AND OTIS IN THAT ONE?
NO, I DON'T THINK
THAT'D WORK OUT.
THERE'S JUST THE ONE BED AND
THERE AIN'T ENOUGH PALLET SPACE.
WE'LL STAND UP.
WELL, HE CAN
HAVE MY BED, SHERIFF.
HOLD IT, HOLD IT,
HOLD IT, HOLD IT!
SHH.
LISTEN TO THE SHERIFF.
MUCH OBLIGED, OTIS.
NO, I'M AFRAID WE CAN'T KEEP 'EM
ALL HERE TOGETHER.
IT'D JUST BE ONE
RUCKUS AFTER ANOTHER
THE WHOLE TIME.
ONE RUCKUS AFTER ANOTHER.
OH, OTIS.
ALL RIGHT, BOYS.
TURN HIM LOOSE.
TURN HIM LOOSE.
TURN HIM LOOSE NOW.
WHEW!
ALL HE WANTS
TO DO IS TRY
TO SLEEP IT OFF
AND SOBER UP.
WELL, I'VE GOT
ONE SOLUTION.
YEAH. WHAT'S THAT?
I'LL TAKE HIM
HOME WITH ME
AND HE CAN SERVE
HIS TIME THERE.
ANDY, HAVE A PRISONER
IN YOUR HOUSE?
[ SINGING ]
WHAT'S WRONG?
WELL, HE'S A PRISONER,
NOT A GUEST.
WELL, YOU GOT
ANY BETTER IDEAS?
WELL... NO.
IN THAT CASE,
COME ON, OTIS.
OH, YOU'RE GONNA
TAKE ME HOME WITH YOU?
THAT'S RIGHT.
GOODY. THIS OUGHT TO BE FUN.
THAT'S IT.
MAKE A SHAM

Otis: * THE DIPSY DOODLE

* LIKE YOU LOVE ME
AND I LOVE ME *
* THAT'S THE WAY
THE DIPSY DOODLE WORKS *
I CAME TO FILL MY VASE.
NOW, AUNT BEE,
DON'T ALWAYS LOOK
ON THE BLACK SIDE.
ONCE OTIS HAS SLEPT IT OFF,
HE'LL BE NO TROUBLE AT ALL.
WHY, DOWN AT THE JAIL,
HE'S JUST LIKE
ONE OF THE FAMILY.
BUT THIS ISN'T THE JAIL.
THIS IS OUR HOME,
AND I WANT HIM OUT OF HERE.
I'LL GET HIM OUT.
I JUST GOT TO GO
DOWN TO THE OFFICE
AND TEND TO A FEW THINGS
AND SOON AS I FINISH,

THE WARDEN GOOD-BYE?
ALL RIGHT, MEN.
MAY I HAVE YOUR

MEN, INASMUCH AS I AM
THE REIGNING OFFICER
IN CHARGE HERE,
I FEEL IT WOULD NOT BE WRONG
FOR ME TO START YOU

OF REHABILITATION.
WHAT DO I MEAN
BY REHABILITATION?
I MEAN ANY CONSTRUCTIVE ACTIVITY
WHICH WOULD BRING OUT
THE TALENTS YOU MAY HAVE.

AND I HAD TO BRING HIM
HOME WITH ME.
OH, WELL, THIS IS RIDICULOUS,
BRINGING HOME A PRISONER!
I'M NOT GOING TO PUT UP
WITH THIS, ANDY.
WELL, HEY, AUNT BEE,
I'VE GOT NO OTHER CHOICE.
OTIS, GIVE ME THAT!
I'M THIRSTY, ANDY!
LATER, LATER.
GIVE IT HERE.
I'LL JUST PUT HIM UP
IN THE GUEST ROOM,
AND WHEN HIS
24 HOURS IS UP,
I'LL SEND
HIM ON HOME.
OF ALL NIGHTS, WHEN WE'RE BAKING
THE CAKES FOR THE CHURCH SOCIAL.
* THE DIPSY DOODLE IS
A THING TO BE LOVED *
OTIS, OTIS, DRINK,
DRINK, DRINK. DRINK.
I'LL JUST TAKE
HIM UPSTAIRS.
COME ON, OTIS.
WE'LL GET SETTLED.
COME ON.
Clara: BEE,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
HUH?
OH. OH, I'M COMING, CLARA.
* THAT'S THE WAY
YOU DIPSY DOODLE... *
ALL RIGHT, OTIS.
COME RIGHT OVER HERE.
STAND RIGHT THERE.
COME HERE, COME HERE,
COME HERE.
GIVE ME THAT.
[ SINGING ]
GIVE ME YOUR ARM.
COME ON. GIVE ME...
PULL!
[ SINGING ]
GIVE ME THAT.
NO, NO, NO. THAT'S MY WATER.
ALL RIGHT. GIVE
ME YOUR OTHER ARM.
[ SINGING ]
PULL!
TURN AROUND.
LET'S GET YOUR TIE.
NOW, SIT DOWN, OTIS.
SIT DOWN. I WANT TO
TELL YOU SOMETHING.
NOW LISTEN. I WANT YOU
TO SETTLE DOWN AND BE QUIET.
NO MORE SINGING.
I WANT YOU TO GO TO SLEEP,
YOU UNDERSTAND?
SHH.
SHH.
OTIS!
WELL, HERE'S
THE COCONUT ONE.
I THINK WE OUGHT TO DECORATE IT
WITH JELLY BEANS.
WHY DO YOU KEEP LOOKING
OUT THERE, BEE?
HMM? OH, NOTHING, NOTHING.
NOW, WE NEED THE COCONUT,
DON'T WE?
WE'VE GOT
THE COCONUT.
THAT'S WHAT
I JUST SAID.
OH, GOOD.
OH, EVENING, LADIES.
HI, ANDY.
HELLO, ANDY.
WHAT HAPPENED
TO YOUR HAND?
OH, NOTHING.
JUST A TUSSLE
WITH A COUPLE
OF PRISONERS.
DON'T THEY LOOK
GOOD! MMM!
THAT'S FOR
THE CAKE.
MARY, WHERE'S
THAT SPONGE?
IT'S OVER THERE
ON THE SINK.
* SO PLAY THE DIPSY DOODLE...
HOW IS OUR PRISONER?
HE'S FINE.
HE'S IN BED ASLEEP.
OH, ANDY, STOP. YOU'RE EATING
ALL THE BLACK ONES.
WELL, I LIKE 'EM,
AUNT BEE.
Otis: * THE DIPSY DOODLE
COMES OUT IN REVERSE *
* LIKE YOU LOVE ME
AND I LOVE ME *
* THAT'S THE WAY
THE DIPSY DOODLE WORKS *
I CAME TO FILL MY VASE.
NOW, AUNT BEE,
DON'T ALWAYS LOOK
ON THE BLACK SIDE.
ONCE OTIS HAS SLEPT IT OFF,
HE'LL BE NO TROUBLE AT ALL.
WHY, DOWN AT THE JAIL,
HE'S JUST LIKE
ONE OF THE FAMILY.
BUT THIS ISN'T THE JAIL.
THIS IS OUR HOME,
AND I WANT HIM OUT OF HERE.
I'LL GET HIM OUT.
I JUST GOT TO GO
DOWN TO THE OFFICE
AND TEND TO A FEW THINGS
AND SOON AS I FINISH,
I'LL GET HIM OUTTA HERE.
WELL, IN THE MEANTIME,
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED
TO DO WITH HIM?
WELL, NOTHIN'.
HE-HE'S A PRISONER.
OH, UH...
I EXPECT HE'S ABOUT
READY FOR BREAKFAST.
BARNEY USUALLY
FIXES HIM
TWO SOFT-BOILED EGGS,
FOUR MINUTES,
ONE PIECE OF TOAST,
AND COFFEE,
BLACK, WITH ONE SUGAR.
OH, UH...
I EXPECT IT MIGHT BE
A LITTLE OUTTA ORDER,
BUT, UH, YOU RECKON
IT'D BE ALL RIGHT
IF I WAS TO KISS
THE WARDEN GOOD-BYE?
ALL RIGHT, MEN.
MAY I HAVE YOUR
ATTENTION, PLEASE?
MEN, INASMUCH AS I AM
THE REIGNING OFFICER
IN CHARGE HERE,
I FEEL IT WOULD NOT BE WRONG
FOR ME TO START YOU
ON A PROGRAM
OF REHABILITATION.
WHAT DO I MEAN
BY REHABILITATION?
I MEAN ANY CONSTRUCTIVE ACTIVITY
WHICH WOULD BRING OUT
THE TALENTS YOU MAY HAVE.
NOW, WHO KNOWS
THAT HAD YOUR TWIGS
BEEN BENT IN ANOTHER DIRECTION,
YOU, IKE
MAY HAVE BEEN
A GREAT VIOLINIST.
YOU, BILLY,
A GREAT ARCHITECT.
SHERMAN,
A DENTIST.
JUNIOR,
A DANCER.
WELL, IT'S NEVER TOO LATE.
NOW, I HAVE HERE
A WOODCARVING SET,
A LEATHER CRAFT SET,
A METAL CRAFT SET,
AND A MR. POTATO SET.
NOW, WHO WANTS WHAT?
NOW, IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE
TO ME WHICH ONE YOU TAKE.
WELL, COME ON, COME ON.
SPEAK UP.
WHICH ONE DO YOU WANT?
I'LL TAKE THE MR. POTATO SET.
GOOD, GOOD.
THERE YOU ARE.
WOODCARVING FOR YOU.
THERE YOU ARE.
LEATHER CRAFT FOR YOU,
AND METAL CRAFT FOR YOU.

OTIS?
OTIS?

AND I EXPECT TO BE
TREATED LIKE ONE."
WELL, IF YOU'RE A PRISONER,
I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU,
AND THAT MAKES ME
THE WARDEN.
OH, AUNT BEE, DON'T
HOLLER SO MUCH, PLEASE.
I GOT A HEAD
THAT FEELS LIKE

I HAD TO SERVE SOME PAPERS
OUT ON THE POST ROAD.
TOOK A LITTLE WHILE.
HMM?
HOW'S THE PRISONER?
FINE.
I HOPE YOU DIDN'T
WORK HIM TOO HARD.
OH, I DON'T THINK SO.
[ ANDY CHUCKLES ]
WELL, HIS TIME'S ABOUT UP.
I MIGHT AS WELL LET HIM GO.
HEY, OTIS?
OTIS?
IS THAT YOU, OTIS?
SHE MADE ME DO IT.
WELL, I'LL BE DOGGED.
OTIS, TELL HIM THE NEWS.
THE NEWS?
OTIS...
TELL HIM.
I AIN'T GONNA GET DRUNK NO MORE.
AUNT BEE PUT ME ON PROBATION.
IF I MAKE ONE MORE FALSE MOVE,
I GOTTA COME BACK.
AUNT BEE, I BELIEVE
YOU MISSED YOUR CALLING.
YOU OUGHT TO HAVE BEEN A WARDEN.
GETTIN' OTIS TO
WALK THE STRAIGHT

AIN'T NO SMALL ACCOMPLISHMENT.
[ CHUCKLING ]
