The Phil Silvers Show (1955–1959): Season 3, Episode 2 - Bilko's Boys Town - full transcript

Bilko is keen to go on desert maneuvers knowing he'll be near Las Vegas. Col. Hall orders him to stay at Fort Baxter. Bilko turns Fort Baxter into a Summer Camp for boys. With the fees set at $125 a kid he hopes to rake in the money.

Gentlemen, the first
week of maneuvers

will be in this
section of the desert.

All troops will assemble
at rendezvous point "A."

and will eventually
flank out into this area.

Are there any questions?

What time do we move
out of camp tomorrow Sir?

0800, is there anyone
off duty because of illness?

No, Sir all the men
are physically fit.

Good, but be
prepared for Sgt. Bilko

to drop in your office
first thing in the morning

with some rare ailment
that'll baffle medical science.



He won't get by
me this year Sir.

Fine, last year he
said he had the gout.

The year before it was beriberi.

This time even if he
has bubonic plague,

he goes on maneuver.

I don't know, I will believe it

when I see Bilko
out in the field.

You can depend on it.

One week from today,
Bilko and his platoon will be

with the rest of the troops out
in the desert right about here.

Right about here in the desert

is where we will be
one week from today.

The next day we move
by truck to this spot here

which is 12 miles from Paradise,
commonly known as Las Vegas.



- Yeeh.
- When do we leave Sarge?

Tomorrow morning 8 o'clock.

Tomorrow morning, why
can't we leave tonight?

Yeah, yeah.

Oh what is the
matter with you guys,

we can't leave before the
Colonel and the rest of the Army.

It will look suspicious.

Yeah but Sarge, Las Vegas
is going to be out of bounds.

All the better we won't
have a lot of soldiers

crowding us off the tables.

Give me room for my...

Wait Sarge, what
if we get caught?

Oh Shimty you're
such a defeatist.

Any other foolish questions?

And he is right Sarge,
what if we get caught?

So what, we say we
got lost in the desert,

we wandered around
till we came up on mirage,

which had a sign on it,
welcome to Las Vegas

Why didn't I think of that?

Because you don't
think, you don't.

All right gentlemen
briefing is over.

I'm going over to the Colonel
now, and the rest of the staff,

to ensure them we're in tip
top shape and raring to go.

Before leaving however,
I'd like a vote of confidence.

Hip hip!
- Hooray!

Hip hip!-Hooray!

- Excuse me Colonel Hall.
- Yes.

- Sgt. Bilko to see you Sir.
- Bilko!

Well this is it.

Gentlemen the irresistible force

is about to meet the
immoveable object.

This is one maneuver Bilko
is not going to get out of.

Send him in.
- Yes Sir.

I'll bet he's a doozer this
time, but I'm ready for him.

Sgt. Bilko motor
pool reporting Sir.

Yes Bilko.

Just calling to report
that all motor vehicles

are in tip top shape Sir.

- And?
- That's all Sir.

That's all?

Oh just the men and
I are ready to go Sir.

Ready to go to the
hospital, eh Bilko.

Heavens Sir, I have never
felt better in my life Sir.

Oh of course, then
it's your favorite uncle

who is sinking fast in New York,

and you're ready to go
on emergency furlough

to be by his side.

Oh no Sir, the old gentleman
is enjoying perfect health,

but he will be so delighted
that you asked Sir.

I will be sure to tell him.

All right Bilko, let's
stop playing games.

What is it? What have
you got up your sleeve?

Nothing Sir.

Just the men and I
are so looking forward

to these maneuvers Sir.

- And that's all?
- That's all Sir.

- Just one thing Sir.
- Aha!

I will have your staff car in
front of your door at 0743 Sir.

Thank you Sir. Good show.

He is really going on maneuvers.

Gentlemen I've done
it, I've broken his spirit.

- Good work Sir.
- Congratulations.

That will be all gentlemen
see you in the morning.

Get me my wife.

Hallo Nell, let's have something
special for dinner tonight.

Oh I don't know. I just
feel like celebrating.

The occasion. I've
just outfoxed a fox.

I've got somebody
where I want him.

It can't be.

Why is Bilko so anxious
to go on desert maneuvers?

Why?

Why?

John, you haven't
touched a thing.

Why?

So as you can keep
up your strength

after all you're going
on desert maneuvers.

Why?

I don't know why,
you do it every year.

Yes but never with him.

Why?

Las Vegas, that's why?
Las Vegas, that's it?

He thought he had
me nailed but I got it.

All right play boys line
up for your final briefing

on Operation Mirage.
Item No.1, cash on hand.

We have $123 in the
platoon welfare fund.

Check. Now here's
how it all breaks down,

on arrival on Las Vegas, you
will separate into small units.

You understand Papparelli,
Zimmerman hey up.

Now you will each be given
$10 which you will change

into quarters and you proceed
to the nearest slot machines.

While there you will maintain
a sharp look out for machines

that have been
warmed over by losers.

When the losers leave
take the machines over,

and step in for the kill.
How's your arm Dino?

Loosey goosey Sarge.

Good. Step back

Fender, Elm on arrivals,
you will proceed to the nearest

roulette table where you
will play the Bilko system.

Which I repeat for you,
black on the 7th spin,

red on each 13th the spin.

If odd numbers persists,
you will then play 00.

If it's a left-handed croupier,

play the entire system
backwards, have you got it?

- Yes Sir.
- Now you will each be given

$5 apiece which you
will change into chips.

I need volunteers to check on

the loose change
in the coin boxes.

- Brass is coming.
- Brass coming look alive.

All right men as I was telling
you on these maneuvers

the enemy of all
vehicles is sand.

Sand is our enemy. We
must keep them... attention.

- At ease men.
- Thank you Sir.

I was just telling
the men even though

we're a small part in
these maneuvers Sir,

we're an important cog in that
vast machine called the Army Sir.

I have never seen
you and your men

so eager to get out
in the field Bilko?

Eager indeed we're eager look
at their faces are raring to go.

I've been just giving
them their assignment Sir.

Good.

You know we never
liked to gamble

with the success of
the maneuvers Bilko.

Gamble with national
defense, never Sir.

Glad to hear it, that's
why I'm leaving you

and your men behind
to guard the camp.

Believe me Sir you
will never regret it.

Leaving us behind Sir?

There must be some mistakes
Sir, the men are raring to go.

This will shatter
their morale Sir.

I'm sure they can get to
Las Vegas some other time.

Las Vegas? What's a Las Vegas?

Don't play innocent
with me Bilko.

I know why you're
so anxious to go.

Really Sir, the Colonel
is going to believe

the vicious lies of some
low down stool pigeon.

I'm the low down
stool pigeon Bilko.

- I figured it out for myself.
- Sir I don't understand.

That's an order,
you and your platoon,

will stay behind to guard
this camp for the 2 weeks

we're away on maneuvers.
- Guard the camp Sir?

That's right and I expect to
find it here when I get back.

They're, they're just
chafing for action Sir.

I'll give you plenty of action.

While I'm gone, I want the
day room and the recreation hall

in first class shape.

I want the floor
scraped, the walls painted

and the windows washed.
Any questions Bilko?

No Sir, the Colonel seems to
have thought of everything Sir.

- Good bye see you in 2 weeks.
- Thank you Sir.

- What are you gonna do now Sarge?
- Sarge it's murder.

Get off my back what
do you want from me.

I... a Sergeant is standing.

Any action Sarge?

There ain't any
soldier around for miles.

Everybody is away on maneuvers.

Boy I was really
counting on this trip.

One good night at that dice
table and I'd have enough money

to send my kid to
camp for 2 weeks.

And now your kid will just
have to be disappointed.

Hey, Sarge why don't
we lend Fender the money

from the welfare funds?

- Why don't we?
- It's a good idea.

- It's all right with me.
- The money is doing us no good.

- How much do you need?
- $125.

All right, give him,
$125, where is this camp

on the French Riviera.

No it's in Staten Island.
They all cost the same.

They give the camp a fancy
Indian name and then they soak you.

What a business.

Sure all they need
is a land in the open,

a few bunks for the kids
to sleep and a baseball.

- $125 for that?
- Hey Sarge, we got it better here.

Of course we've got it
better here and you know?

Know what Sarge.

- They're gonna have it better here.
- Who?

The jolly little campers,
who are going to spend

the happiest 2 weeks of their
lives at Camp Poconocohooocheee.

Poconocohooocheee?

Yes right at the beautiful
shores of Lake Chipmunk.

Where is that?

You're standing right in
it counselor Papparelli.

Madam I saw your little
boy playing in the front yard.

A manly little fellow,
the type of boy that,

Camp Poconocohooocheee
can do wonders for.

But I've never
heard of your camp?

May I tell you sincerely,
as head counselor

I couldn't be more pleased.

Because you see
Poconocohooocheee in Cherokee means,

village of the hidden wigwam.

We try to adhere to
that no publicity policy.

Do you get children
from good families?

May I tell you sincerely
that our camp has been

Dwight D. Eisenhower,
Douglas Macarthur,

Lord Mountbatten and Bob Hope?

He was one of our
more jolly campers.

Remember he was scamper.
- Yes he was.

And you say that the camp
will be open for only 2 weeks?

Yes that's because we of the
staff for Poconocohooocheee

have devised a system
that we do in 2 weeks.

But the other camps
take 2 months to do.

Well it sounds wonderful.
Will you take a check?

Well of course the money
is of no consequences,

we just want the little
fellows to be happy.

But he's never been
away from home.

Oh that is the type we want.

The boys we get through
with and send home,

that's when they get homesick.

- Remember the Vanderbilt boy?
- Yes counselor.

Oh ma I don't
want to go to this.

Oh this little boy, I catch
you soon matching along

with the other campers,
singing the camp song.

Shall we? And.

"We're a bunch of jolly campers
and we're full of fun and glee.

And we swim and fish and hike
and play and nap from 2 to 3.

Oooohh Poconocohooocheee,
the camp we hold so dear.

And we thank our moms and
daddies because they sent us here!"

Well so far everything is
going according to schedule.

Hey Sarge what about
dinner for the kids?

Well I will have very special
treat for the little fellows.

Chipped beef on toast.

I told them it was Indian
pablum they'll never know.

Where are they now?

They're running around
the obstacle course.

They think they're
on a buffalo hunt.

Buffalo hunt?

Okay but keep
Doberman out of sight.

Otherwise fellows, did I
tell we'd make a success

out of this camp business.

Sarge the camp's a great
idea, what about the work

we're going to do before
the Colonel gets back.

He is right Sarge.

Remember what the Colonel said,

the floor scrapes, the
windows washed up.

- Let me worry about that...
- Hey Sarge.

I know this will make
Jean awfully furious.

Ha ha ha, have you
got 'em with you?

I got all of my comic
books with me Sarge.

Now remember at the
campfire you read those.

Read? Me?

Yes go practice,
practice big chief.

How, how Chief Fender, how.

You tell me how.

5 times around
the obstacle course.

Go, go big chief to the
happy resting grounds.

Go brave warrior that you...

Well little braves are we all
having fun at Poconocohooocheee?

Fun, fun, fun, fun.

Hey big Chief Bilko,
you told my mother

we'd go swimming
in Lake Chipmunk?

And so we will little
Rogers, so we will.

I wanna go now.

Well unfortunately the
chipmunks are in there now.

After all we must show
some consideration, what for?

For the little friends.

Now we gonna
have Indian folklore.

- Indian Folklore?
- All right.

Now as every American
school boy knows

the Indians invented
2 great games,

lacrosse, and scrape the floor.

And since we know it's much
too early for lacrosse season,

we're gonna start by
playing scrape the floor.

- How do you play it?
- Very simple Roy.

We take a block of wood,
a piece of sandpaper;

you wrap the wood
with the sand paper.

You get on your hands and
knees and just scrape the floor.

The Indians didn't have floors.

That's because they
scraped them all away.

That's the idea of the
game. Oh you're bright.

Well who wants to
start playing the game?

Me! Me!

- That takes care of today.
- All right.

Now we're having a
lot of trouble with that

10 mile hike you got
scheduled for tomorrow.

- Don't the kids wanna go?
- Well it's not the kids.

Nobody in the platoon
wants to go on a 10 mile hike!

- They'll go, they'll go.
- Sarge, we've got trouble.

One of the kids
just gave this to mail.

"Dear mom and
dad, this camp stinks.

Your loving son Roger."
Oh trouble maker.

We've got to stop this
before it becomes a mutiny.

All right braves, story
time, all time is over.

Here we go we're gonna
have letter writing time.

Pass out the pads.
- I already wrote home.

Well we can't write enough

to our mothers and
fathers now can we?

All right get those pads out.

Get those pencils out,
fast like little Indians.

All right everybody
write what I dictate,

and then we'll show
you how to do it.

Here we go.

And we start Dear
Mommy and Daddy.

How do you spell Mommy?

Dear Mommy and Daddy.

I'm having a wonderful time at
camp, I'm as brown as an Indian,

I sing all the live long day
and don't worry about me.

Your loving son, now
you all sign your names.

You sign it, you wrote it.

Roger, you're not showing
the proper camp attitude.

If you don't change I'm
gonna have to send you home.

What time is the next bus?

Right, since you've apologized
we'll overlook it this time.

All right pads in, pads in.
There you go, chief Rocco.

Chief Henshaw, get the pads.

All right braves it's
time for your nap.

Sleepy teepee
time, hit the sack.

Everybody hit the sack.

Hit, not you buffalo
out on the ring, out.

Hit that sack, here we go,
lights out, let's go, come on.

- What's that?
- Sounds like a motorcycle.

Motor?

Hey, Mac since when
did they change the name

of Fort Baxter to Camp
Poconocohooocheee?

It's camouflaged.

Well I've got a
message for Colonel Hall.

- Where is he?
- Col. Hall, He's out on maneuvers.

Maneuvers? Where
have you been buddy?

Maneuvers were
called off yesterday.

- Called off?
- Yeah on account of sandstorms.

Well he should be back today,
see that he gets this message.

They're drafting them
younger every day.

Well that's the end of
Camp Poconocohooochee.

What are going to do?

Simple, just get the kids out
of here, we can take 'em home.

Refund half the money,
we still show enough profit.

Up on your feet, up, up
everybody break it up.

- Let's go.
- Come on move, move.

What's going on?
I just got to sleep.

I'm still tired.

Line up everybody,
in here, in here.

All right braves, I'm proud of
you, you have just set a new record.

A new record? Yeeaah!

Yes you've just completed
a 2 week vacation course

in one week. I think
that deserves a cheer?

- Hip! Hip!
- Hooray,

- Hip! Hip!
- Hooray.

Not so fast with
the hip, hip hooray,

my mother paid you for 2 weeks.

Mmh... poor little redskin spoiled
by the ways of the white man.

All right braves,
before we break camp

and head on our separate trails;

we all take the oath
of the sealed lips.

- What for?
- It's an Indian custom.

Hands up we're now blood
brothers, let the tiger, here.

Can you reach tiger;
get in here tiger, that's it.

Everybody reach,
now repeat after me,

I promise on my honor
as an Indian brave.

I promise on my honor
as an Indian brave.

I will not tell about tell
Poconocohooochee to my mother.

To my mother.

Or to my father.

To my father.

Or to anyone else who tries to
pump me including my teacher.

Or to anyone else who tries to
pump me including my teacher.

Red Indians, this I swear
with the sign of the secret oath.

It's Roger's house Sarge.

Now Roger we're taking
all the other little boys home.

And now we hate to
say goodbye to you.

So we're just
going to ring the bell

and we're going to run and
don't forget the oath of secrecy.

Did you ring it?
- Yes.

Hey Sarge, look nobody answers.

Someone is gotta.
Your boy is home.

I don't see any lights; I
guess they're not home.

Look Sarge, there's a
note in the milk bottle.

Oh read it.

Dear milkman I have
gone out of town,

don't deliver any milk
until Tuesday, Mrs. Warren.

Tuesday that's
not until tomorrow.

What are we gonna
do with him till then?

How about we take
you to one of your relas.

Have you any relatives?
- Sure.

- Good.
- I've got an uncle in San Francisco.

Maybe Roger's has got a friend.

How about that?

We'll take you to your
best friend's house.

- I ain't got a best friend.
- That figured.

- I got an idea.
- What?

How about Camp Poconocohooochee?

Roger, you know Poconocohooche
is closed for the summer.

And what about Fort Baxter,
that just opened for the summer.

You knew all the
time didn't you Roger.

Aha!

Hey Sarge what are
we gonna do with him.

Can't leave him in
the street all night,

we gotta take him back
to the camp with us just.

How about that, we will take
you back to the camp with us,

you can stay there and
be like real, real Army.

- Then I want to get paid.
- I just figured it out.

His folks aren't on
a trip they're hiding.

All right here.
Here's a quarter.

A quarter, you've been to
candy store lately make it a $1.

You're a good boy Roger.

Now I will be glad when we get
that Roger out of the barracks.

I had to read to him,
till 3 o'clock this morning.

What are you complaining about?

I had to get up 5 times to
get him a glass of water.

Rocco, Rocco, is Henshaw
calling the kids homes.

I hope those kids, that
kid's parents are home,

we gotta get him out of here
before the Colonel gets back.

I know, I know.

Here is the breakfast
the kid ordered.

Kid ordered, what, what.

Bacon and eggs, waffles,
pancakes, potato chips.

How did you get this
stuff out of the Mess Hall?

I told them that you were sick.

- I was sick.
- Where is my breakfast?

Roger I told you
to stay in there.

Stay in there don't you
come out of here Roger.

Now do what I tell
you. Inside, inside.

Oh what a kid. 65
lbs of pure trouble.

Oh Ernie I made the phone call.

- Well any answer.
- Still no answer.

Stay with it, they've
gotta answer eventually.

- Right Sarge.
- Brass is coming.

Brass! Look alive.

All right you there remember
this is the motor pool.

I want this place
spanking clean.

When the Colonel gets
back I want him proud.

- We're going... ten-shun!
- At ease men.

Colonel Sir, it's
good to see you back

and the desert sun has
done wonders for you Sir.

We didn't have much of
it Bilko, mostly sandstorm.

Yes I know Sir, we were
all terribly disappointed

when we had the
maneuvers were called off.

It's so nice for you to
have come back Sir safe...

Isn't somebody trying
to get out that door?

No Sir, it's just a draft Sir.

I guess, the ventilation
here is quite strong.

Colonel you've given us
moral uplift by dropping by,

and I know that
you have a busy day.

Can I show you to the door Sir?

I didn't come to visit Bilko,
I have something to say.

All right, can I explain my...

I didn't believe it possible,
but you and your men

did splendid job in the day room

and the recreation
room while I was away.

Well thank you Sir, it
was merely child's play Sir.

Sir I have a jeep, can I
drop you off at your office Sir?

Thank you, thank you no.

What is it that I smell?
It smells like pancakes.

Smell? You smell anything?

I don't smell anything. I
don't smell anything no.

- Quiet.
- Quiet when the Colonel.

I could swear that I...
- Hey you forgot the ketchup?

Sir you were saying.

Who is that?
- Who is what Sir?

- I saw somebody.
- Somebody?

- Did you see anybody?
- I didn't see anybody.

- Stop it.
- Quiet.

You get back on your duties.

I distinctly saw a small
boy go in that room.

Small boy Sir, it must
be the desert sun,

it's a mirage of some kind Sir.

You put down that
waffle, and come out here.

Who are you and what
are you doing here?

Oh no don't make him
tell the story again Sir.

He's just a small boy.
It's much too painful.

What story. On you
wouldn't believe it Sir.

I know I wouldn't
but let's hear it.

There little Roger no one
is going to hurt you again,

you're safe here
with your uncle Ernie.

- Uncle Ernie?
- Yes Sir, the boy is my nephew Sir.

I can appreciate that
Bilko but you can't have him

here in the barracks
you know the rules?

Rules Sir, are there rules to
ease the suffering of a young boy.

Are there rules to mend a
small boy's broken heart Sir?

There, there you're safe no
one is going to hurt you anymore.

- Where are his parents?
- Sir would you believe this one.

This little tike came home last
night, his parents were gone.

All that was left was
note in an empty gin bottle.

What did the note say?

It said, go to the one man
who loves and understands you,

your Uncle Ernie Sir.

Oh it's one of those sad
stories of a broken home Sir.

The mother drinks,
the father gambles.

There don't cry, don't cry.

It's very sad story but you know

you can't keep
him in the barracks.

But Sir I have to keep
him some place Sir.

You do have a problem don't you.
- Yes don't don't!

Why don't Mrs. Hall
and I look after him

until you clear up this
matter with his family?

Oh that won't be necessary
Sir; I will make one more effort

to contact his parents
and it will be all right.

Until you do, Mrs. Hall
and I will take care of him,

he will be better off with us.

Go, go with uncle Colonel.

Sir, can I just kiss the
little boy goodbye Sir?

Come uncle Ernie wants,
don't forget the secret oath?

For how much?

Go, go with the Colonel you
will love Mrs. Hall and here,

here is your allowance buy
them a present when you leave.

- Bye Uncle Ernie.
- Goodbye little boy.

If we hurry maybe Mrs.
Hall has some breakfast left.

Hey Sarge I finally got
the kids parents on phone.

- They're home.
- Jerk where were you before?

I couldn't come in the
Colonel was still here.

Well now I've got to get the
kid back from the Colonel.

- How, how.
- I don't know how, how.

I will tell the Colonel I'm
going to send him to camp.

How.

I will see who it is.

Show me some more
pictures Uncle Jack.

- Well well well.
- Roger, your uncle Ernie.

Roger, you can smile again,
your folks are back home Roger.

What's with the rush I've
got a chocolate cake coming?

Roger you don't understand your
parents have come back home.

Bilko do you think it's safe.

Oh yes Sir they
have both reformed,

she's got a job back
at the public library.

He's joined the
bird watchers Sir.

Oh you can go home again.

You understand
Mrs. Hall, don't you?

Oh I know how his
mother must feel.

We must let him go John.

Mrs. Hall you have
a true mothers heart.

Come Roger we're going home.

I better wash his
face; he's got jam on it.

Oh go have your
face washed Roger.

- I'll get his coat.
- Thank you Sir, well.

- Well Ernie, you're a genius.
- It's another Bilko miracle.

To you it maybe a miracle,

to me it's the work
of a master tactician.

I'll get that. Yes.

There he is. There's
the man from camp.

What do I do?
What's all that racket?

- Who's at the door?
- It's Roger's parents.

They've been drinking again Sir.

Well I would like
to talk to them,

I'd like to give 'em
a piece of my mind.

Get away Bilko.
- Sir, they may be armed,

they may have a
bottle watch it Sir.

- Colonel Hall.
- Yes.

I found out all about this man,
and his Poconocohooochee.

- Poconocohooochee?
- Yes Sir I told you.

Roger is here but I don't think
you're in condition to see him.

If my boy is here
I'm going to find him.

How about some black
coffee and a cold shower.

Let go of my husband,
this is ridiculous.

He took my son away and I...

And I would have
done the same thing.

Lady I would have
arranged it so that

you'd never get the boy
if he were my nephew.

His nephew. His nephew!!! Ha ha!

- She's been to the well again Sir.
- Mommy, daddy.

Bilko don't you
think this is a case

for the juvenile authorities.
- I don't think so Sir.

The sight of that child
seems to have brought

around a reformation Sir.

Let tip toe away and have
them have their reunion.

Just minute soldier,
you're not going anywhere.

I want to know why my
boy is doing at Fort Baxter;

we sent him to Camp
Poconocohooochee.

And a good job you did
of it too look at that boy

why he is bursting with health.
He is as brown as a berry.

Let's go in. Just
a minute, Bilko.

If this boy was sent to
Camp Poconocohooochee

what is he doing in Fort Baxter?

That's exactly
what I want to know.

- Me too.
- I must admit I'm curious.

Well you see,
when, when I, when I.

Wait a minute, let the child
tell the story we want the truth.

- Go ahead Roger.
- No he's been through enough.

- The truth?
- Yes the truth.

- Let him talk.
- Don't let this little boy talk

- Let him talk.
- Yes Sir.

- Well after the big fire.
- Sir he is... fire!

What fire?

Fire that burned down
Camp Poconocohooochee,

it started from weenie
roast at the camp fire.

It spread like crazy.
We were all scared.

And if it wasn't for Sgt. Bilko

and the brave soldiers of
Fort Baxter who rescued us,

I wouldn't be here
to tell the story.

Why then you
saved our boys life.

I want to say I'm sorry, and
I'd like to shake your hand Sir.

- Thank you.
- You're a good boy?

Wait, you haven't
heard the best part.

Don't press it Roger.

Since we lost a whole week
at Camp Poconocohooochee,

the nice soldiers
took up a collection,

so we could start a
boys club this summer.

- And buy tennis rackets...
- Tennis rackets.

- Baseball hats.
- Baseball hats.

- Fishing rods.
- Fishing rods.

- Basket balls.
- Basket balls, we promised this.

We actually did, we did.

Guess we will all be
waiting to start the club.

So I will take the
money now uncle Ernie.

- Oh yes the money.
- Sgt. Bilko you're wonderful.

Uncle Ernie I wanna
thank you for everything.

I wanna thank you on
behalf of the boys of Roseville.

Come Roger, come dear.

I'm really touched.

So am I Sir.

I've never been so
touched in all my life.
