04x03 - Didya Ever Have One of Those Days?

[bunniefuu]

My Three Sons Starring Fred McMurray And
as Bub, William Frawley He's still at it.

If he doesn't stop, he's going to flood the engine.

Well, I'll be.

Plenty of sugar.

It's all on your cereal.

Morning.

What's.

Going on for him this morning?

He's headed for one of those days, if you ask me.

One of what days?

One of those bad days.

He cut himself shaving this morning.

So what does that prove?

A lot of people cut themselves shaving.

Yeah, but he also burned his finger.

He couldn't wait for the toaster to pop.

And he reached into the toaster.

Both in one morning.

And now he can't get the car started.

Well, now, why does that indicate that
Dad's going to have a bad day?

So he had three accidents.

Coincidence.

Coincidence, my foot.

Once things start going wrong, you're a dead duck.

He's.

Really in for it today.

He's doomed.

In.

There right away before Gordon blows the gasket.

Yeah, I know I'm late, Joe.

I ran out of gas getting here.

And cut myself.

Well, I've had quite a morning.

That's what I'm saying.

Yeah, Bub told me about it on the phone.

Oh, he did, hmm?

Is that the finger you burned?

No, this is the one I burned, Joe.

This is the one I just caught in the elevator.

You're having one of those days.

Bub's been brainwashing you, Joe.

I just happen to have a few little accidents, that's all.

Okay.

Mr. Putnam and Mr. Gordon are waiting to see those plans.

How'd they turn out?

Oh, they turned out fine, Joe.

I had to sit up half the night working on them, huh?

Good.

Well, at least nothing went wrong with them.

No, sir, Joe.

Not a thing happened to those plans, I'll tell you.

Because the minute I finished them,
I put them right there in the entrance

hall, next to the telephone, so I wouldn't
forget to bring them with me this morning.

And they're perfectly safe right there at home, next to
the telephone in the entrance hall, where I forgot them.

Forgot to bring them?

Yeah, I'll rush home and... Well, wait a minute.

Can't you call the house and have them
bring them down here?

It'll save time.

Yeah, I guess you're right, Joe.

Hello?

Hello?

Oh, hi, Dad.

Yeah, yeah, plans are right here.

Okay.

Yeah, I'll drop by at the office in about ten minutes.

All right, Dad.

Bye-bye.

You need more proof?

Well, he sure is running into a bad streak
of nasty coincidences.

Compared to what he's gone through,
the bubonic plague was amazing.

It was a great pole dance.

You don't have to wait.

This is a generous firm.

I would shift the body home.

Oh, you still here, Mike?

Um, everything go all right?

Oh, we went fine.

Putnam was very pleased with the plans, Joe.

He's still going over them.

This Putnam likes everything on a big
scale, and this plan was the biggest.

Uh, private area field for landing cargo planes.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh, that's great.

Well, thanks for bringing him down, Mike.

You really saved my day.

That's okay.

Uh, want any pencils sharpened or anything, Dad?

Oh, no thanks, Mike.

How about the blinds in your office?

You want me to adjust them?

No, no.

Thanks for anything.

I won't fall out the window.

Now, you can run along home.

I'm going to be fine.

Sure you will.

I'll drop by later on and drive you home.

Mike, I can drive myself.

Oh, thanks so much.

Oh, it's no trouble.

I know.

I know.

Oh, Dad, be careful of that water cooler.

It's a little shaky.

Oh, thanks for warning.

Goodbye.

Take care.

I will, Mike.

Boy, just because I had a couple of little accidents.

A couple of little accidents?

Now, Joe, you listen to me.

Just because I had a couple of accidents,
everybody's treating me like I was jinxed or something.

Now, I think it's pretty childish, and I
don't want to hear any more about it, okay?

Okay, okay.

Steve, these copies are getting lighter.

Do you know where the girl keeps the refilling?

Oh, it's up there on the shelf in the blue bottle.

I'll get it for you.

Yes, if you think I can handle it.

Careful now.

A little bottle of ink all over your suit?

Well, on a day like your having, you shouldn't
be reaching up on a shelf for a bottle of ink.

Which suit do you want?

Okay.

Robbie.

Yeah, Bub?

Grab your jacket.

You got to go down and see your father right away.

Hey, Bub, I've been studying.

Don't you think Mike could go?

Well, Mike's gone already.

He took your father to the plans you forgot this morning.

You had to take a suit down to him.

Don't tell me he forgot to... No,
he didn't forget to get dressed.

He threw ink all over himself.

Boy, how many is that for today?

Who counts these things?

Now, here's some cab fare.

On your way out, tell Chip to stand by.

We may need him to deliver the plasma.

Now, here you are, Robbie.

Chip, what's going on?

I don't know whether the cleaner can get
that out of there or not, but just tell

him it's ink and ask him to do the best he can.

All right.

Dad, maybe Bub was right.

About what?

Well, don't you think it'd be a good thing
for you to take the rest of the day off

and go home and hop in bed and lock yourself in your room?

I do not.

Boy, what a family.

One engineer, a witch doctor, and three voodoo priests.

But, Dad, there must be something to it.

I mean, look at all that's happened to you today.

Just because I had eight little mishaps in two hours?

It's purely coincidence.

It could happen to anybody.

All right.

Dad, could I sharpen some pencils?

No, you can't.

Goodbye, and thanks very much.

Good luck, Mr. Warner.

So long, Robbie.

Now, green cab company?

Say, Joe.

Hold on a minute.

Joe, where are those specification chiefs
for the platinum job?

Well, they're over there on the duplicating machine.

That's the stuff I've been running off.

Oh, I want to take a look at this.

This is the Gordon Aeronautical Corporation.

Would you send a cab over here right away for Mr. Gordon?

Yeah, tell the cab driver to wait in front
of the building, 981 Front Street.

Thank you.

Joe!

See!

Joe!

Joe!

What happened?

I just reached over to get one of those
specification papers and I guess I bumped

the switch on accidentally and my tie got caught.

Get me out of here, will you, Joe?

Well, let's see.

Well, could you put it in reverse, maybe?

No, it just goes forward.

It doesn't go in reverse.

Well, don't turn it on again.

It's too bad the service department is closed on Saturdays.

Well, look, Joe, have you got a knife?

A knife?

Yeah, just cut the tie off.

Oh.

A pair of scissors here.

Be careful.

Now, Joe, Steve, is that an expensive tie?

What's the difference?

Just cut it, will you, please?

Don't get me out of here.

Thanks very much.

Joe, I'm going to go home and get into bed
and lock myself in my room.

You want me to drive you, Steve?

I would appreciate it very much if you would, Joe.

Will you just stand here, not do anything,
don't touch anything, while I get my coat?

Right, I guess.

Please, I'll be with you.

I'll be right back.

Well, I'm not sure if he can come to the phone right now.

He's upstairs taking a bath.

Well, I'm supposed to take down all messages.

I'll just tell him it's very important.

And will you hurry, please?

I don't have much time.

All right, I'll tell him, and I'll be right back.

Mr. Gordon, that road won't hold out much longer.

He wants to know who it is.

Tell him it's Mr. Gordon from the office.

Mr. Gordon.

Well, I'd better write that down on the path downstairs.

Excuse me.

Mr. Gordon, you don't know the storms we have up here.

Your plane has already been canceled.

That road gets washed out.

You're going to be stuck all night on that hillside.

Mr. Gordon.

Mr. Gordon.

Is there any message, Mr. Gordon?

Just get him to the telephone.

He isn't.

If he wants to know, they can call you back.

No!

Get him to the phone.

Yes, I will.

I'm supposed to entertain an erratic but
very important client at dinner tonight.

Now, if he stood up, we could blow the whole deal.

Douglas has got to entertain.

Entertain those people for me.

He'll be right out of these, joining himself.

No, never mind.

I can't wait for him.

All right, I'll tell him.

Give him this message.

Write this down.

Hello.

Gordon, please.

All right.

Well, just a second.

The pad's downstairs.

Meet the Putnam's.

At the blue...

Blue what?

Oh, Blue Royal.

At 7.30 sharp.

Boy, that doesn't give that much time.

It's after six now.

Yes, sir, I'll tell him.

Right.

Bye.

Chip.

Any calls while I was out?

Bub, Dad says to hurry with his tuxedo.

He's almost finished shaving.

He's going to have to rush to meet Mr. and Miss Putnam.

Well, I'm pressing as fast as I can.

I guess he's going to have a big night.

Could it be that his bad streak is finally over?

It's possible.

For a while, I thought this one was here to stay.

Boy, wouldn't it be terrible if something went wrong
while he was trying to impress these important people?

Well, I hope he doesn't spill soup on Mr. Putnam
or step on Mrs. Putnam's feet while they're dancing.

Or worse.

What could be worse?

Well, this morning, I forgot his plans.

Supposed he forgot to take his wallet and
couldn't pay the bill.

Boy, am I glad you thought of that.

I bet that's what the streak had next on his schedule.

Steve, let's play safe and put your wallet
in your tuxedo now.

Good idea, Bub.

It's in the inside pocket of my gray suit.

Which gray suit?

The one I spilled the ink on this morning.

The one I gave to Robbie to take to the...

What time does the cleaner close?

Closed now.

Maybe he stayed open a little late.

On a bad streak day, not a chance.

We might be able to make it.

I got a fine on our bill and two singles,
and I'll give you the other $93 in change.

In a swank restaurant like that?

All I've got is quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies.

Well, go ahead and throw it in a paper bag or something,
and maybe we can change it for bills on the way down there.

Big.

Get that check here, Bub.

$100 in change?

$99.60.

$99.60.

$7 in bills.

I had to take a cab.

I couldn't lug the stuff over here.

How's Dad supposed to walk into the Blue
Royale carrying a ton of change?

Well, you're back, huh, Bub?

Yeah.

Did you get my check cashed?

Yeah.

Oh, thanks, Mike.

Where's the...

Well, what else?

My name is Putnam.

Are you sure a man named Douglas hasn't called me?

I'm sorry, no, sir.

Not yet.

He didn't even call?

No.

Oh.

Second time he's kept me waiting today.

Well, I'll give him five more minutes.

And if he doesn't show up, we'll dine by ourselves.

But it's the last time that company will
ever see me or my business.

Yes, sir?

Hi, Mr. Douglas.

I'm supposed to meet Mr. Putnam here.

Oh, yes.

Mr. and Mrs. Putnam have been quite anxious.

Yes, I know I'm late.

I've been stopping at filling stations
trying to get rid of some change.

Now, maybe you can help me.

I'll tell you what happened.

I haven't... Ah, good evening, Mr. Maitland.

Your table is ready.

Will you pardon me for a moment?

Why don't you check your coat, meanwhile, sir?

Fine.

Right this way, Mr. Maitland.

Hello.

I'm in kind of an embarrassing situation.

Oh.

Well, what is it, sir?

Well, I wonder if you could help me get rid of this.

Well, certainly, sir.

We have a trash can.

Oh, no, no, no.

I'd like to give $78 for it, if I could.

Oh, what are you selling?

Well, I'm not selling anything.

You see, I have $78 in coins, and I'd like
to change it for bills.

I see.

Well, be careful.

You'd better put your hand on the bottom,
because that bag must be worn out by now.

Excuse me, please.

I'll be right...

Douglas?

Oh, hi, Mr. Putnam.

Mr. Putnam and I have been waiting for you.

Yes, I'm sorry I'm late, but, uh, well, I got
kind of held up on account of this change.

I mean, uh... Change?

What change?

Well, uh, the change in plans.

You see, Mr. Gordon didn't call me till
quite late, and I... Well, you're here anyway.

Come on.

Yes.

Steve, I'd like you to meet my wife.

My dear, this is Steve Douglas.

I'm so happy to know you, Mr. Douglas.

Uh, how do you do, Mr. Putnam?

I'm, uh...

I'm awfully sorry if I kept you waiting.

Really?

Good evening.

c*ck?

Uh, would you care for a c*ck before dinner?

No, no, no, I'm hungry.

Oh.

Well, maybe, uh, some champagne with a dinner.

Oh, I'd like that.

Fine, fine.

What would you suggest?

Uh, would you like to leave it to me, sir?

Yes, I'd like to.

All right, thank you.

Well.

I beg your pardon, sir.

Yes?

Somebody left a paper bag on your chair.

Oh.

What bag?

What would a paper bag be doing on my chair?

I have no idea, sir.

Well.

I'm sorry, sir.

I don't know.

Oh, that's all right.

It's, uh, isn't that funny?

Do you have paper bags on your chairs?

No.

Must have been somebody's leftover Bowser bag.

Uh, yes, I'll have the lobster c*ck.

Lobster c*ck?

I think I'll have the.

Lobster c*ck in the lamb chops.

And, uh, perhaps Mr.

Douglas would care to dance.

Oh, would you, Mr. Douglas?

The music's so lovely.

Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Bub.

I don't really dance.

Go on.

It's either you or I'll.

End up building that airfield for Putnam.

Well, your bad luck streak is over.

It only lasts a day.

Tomorrow morning, the sun will shine again.

I hope you're right, Bub.

Good night, Steve.

Good night, Bub.

Oh.

This weekend would be a good time to take over the world.

Why?

Because Superman will be too busy to stop you.

That's why.

He's flying all over in 96 different adventures all
weekend long on TV Land's Superman Fandemonium.
