07x32 - Weekend in Paradise

[bunniefuu]

Oh, morning, Dave.

Morning, Steve.

Well, we have to come to a decision on
that Maui property right away.

Oh?

Can I have some coffee?

Yeah, help yourself.

So, yeah, Mr. Chang just phoned from Honolulu.

His group have sewed up their option on
the land, so now it's up to us to decide.

Well, I hear a lot of industries are
moving factories to the islands.

I know, but is it a good idea for this company?

It could be.

Have you checked the labor supply,
the availability of scientists,

engineers, materials?

Mr. Chang says that the climate and the living
conditions are so great you could get anybody you wanted.

He also said you can either fly the
supplies in or move them in by freighter.

Well, I've been to Honolulu, and it is great, but I
didn't get to the outer islands, so I'm no authority.

Neither am I.

That's why we need somebody on the grounds
that knows our requirements.

Who?

You.

And as soon as possible, like tonight.

Dave, I wish you'd pick somebody else.

I mean, it's spring vacation, and the boys are home.

I know that.

Steve, that's part of the deal.

Five round-trip tickets, all expenses paid.

Well, what am I arguing about?

A spring vacation in Honolulu.

Honolulu.

Gorgeous, warm nights, beautiful, cool pineapples.

You know, I just might be able to talk the boys into it.

Steve, at my lodge, I'm chairman of the
entertainment committee.

Our annual meeting is next Thursday.

And tomorrow is Ethel Newby's birthday
party, and I'm invited to it.

Tomorrow's the big game.

I'm second-string pitcher, but I got lucky.

The first-string pitcher's got chicken pox.

Dad, count me out.

My group is booked and sold at the team
club, but they need me.

I play the bass.

Well, you fellas haven't even given me a
chance to tell you where we were going.

So it's another trip.

Very nice.

Wherever it is, it comes at the wrong time.

Yeah, Dad.

Okay, I'll just have to call Dave and tell
him you don't want to go to Honolulu.

Honolulu?

Did you say Honolulu?

That's what I said.

I have to go to the island of Maui for a
few days, and I thought I'd leave you

fellas in Honolulu and then pick you up on the way back.

You said Honolulu?

Yeah.

Makaha.

Makaha?

What does it mean in English?

Makaha is the name of the beach where they
invented surfing.

They've got waves there that are the shape of surfboards.

Tell me, what happened to the annual lodge
meeting and the teen club and the big game

and Ethel Newby's birthday party all of a sudden?

You said the magic word.

Honolulu.

It's aloha all the way.

And mahalo.

Yeah.

Mahalo.

That means thank you.

And now, if you were going to leave right
away, you Malahinis better get on the ball.

Right.

I'll tell you about it.

Come on.

Well, fellas, before I leave you,
my plane for Maui takes off from the other

side of the airport, so we'll try to keep
things under control, will you?

Don't worry about a thing, Steve.

I may call on a pretty little Hawaiian girl I used
to know, but I'll keep a close watch on the boys.

Me, I'm just gonna lie on the beach and
rest up for the Bryant Park social season.

I'm gonna eat pineapple and sleep.

Oh, don't worry about me, either.

What could happen?

Well, have a good time.

I'll call you from Maui and let you know the day we
have to head back home, and I'll meet you right here.

Okay, Dad.

Well, that's all, fellas.

Bye-bye.

Come on, let's go.

This is what I call an airport welcome.

Hey, I don't even know you.

She doesn't mean anything personal.

Just relax and enjoy it.

Well, I'm not old enough to enjoy that stuff.

Must be the climate.

I feel at home already.

Let's get our baggage.

See you later.

Bye.

We have reservations.

Charley, O'Casey, Robbie, Chip, and Ernie Douglas.

Hey.

Where's Ernie?

He's outside talking to a minor bird.

Aloha.

Well, aloha.

Hey, being friendly is okay, but this is
getting to be ridiculous.

Judy Leslie.

Robbie Douglas, the senior prom, remember?

Oh, of course.

You guys, I want you to meet Judy Leslie from Bryant Park.

Boy, that Robbie's got them in every park.

What are you doing so far from home?

I came for the weekend and stayed three years.

Oh, weekend?

Three years?

After you've been here a while, you'll understand.

You'll never want to leave.

You kind of just dropped out of sight after high school.

We've got some catching up to do.

It'll be a pleasure, Robbie.

I'm on the early shift.

I get off in plenty of time for Waikiki.

Like when?

Two o'clock on the beach.

It's a date.

Okay.

Give their rooms 308 and 307.

Enjoy yourself.

Judy, will you tell Ernie what our room number is?

He's about so tall he has glasses.

You can't miss him.

Sure.

Okay.

We'll see you soon.

Yeah?

What do you mean, yeah?

Okay.

Aloha.

Aloha.

I'm Charley O'Casey.

I'm looking for a girl that used to live here named Nani.

By any chance, is the little lady still around?

Yeah.

Well, Nani is my sister.

I get her.

Wait a minute.

Just tell her Charley is back.

Charley off the old Molly M.

She'll remember.

You wait.

Nani, some guy named Charley O'Casey.

Away!

Away!

Charley!

I'm Charley, but there must be some mistake.

I'm looking for Nani.

A cute little Hawaiian gal.

About this girl.

She's in a great hula.

You still can wear a hibiscus over her ear.

Charley, I'm Nani.

You kept your promise and came back to marry me.

You're a Nani?

I wear hibiscus in my hair like before.

Wait, I go get my brother.

Tonight we have festival luau.

Ding-do-ing.

Hello, hello.

Hello, hi.

Hello, hi.

Come meet my sweetheart.

Come on, come on, come on.

Charlie!

He's gone.

Boy,

those waves are something else.

I could manage to like it here just fine.

I've lasted three years.

My ambition is to make it six.

Judy, if I decided not to go back to Bryant Park,
I'm just dreaming, but, well, how would I go about it?

Easy.

First you decide that life is one long
weekend, and then you never admit it's Monday.

Looks like you've had a three-year weekend.

It's been a real ball.

I'm afraid it's almost over.

Why?

You've got a job.

It's just a temporary fill-in.

But I have talked the hotel into letting me...

Try out for something wonderful.

Manager.

Not quite.

The hotel puts on a luau show every night.

Oh.

Are you going to dance for the show or cook for the luau?

Neither.

They have a comic named Harry h*.

He's leaving for Hong Kong, and tomorrow
night I'm going to audition to replace him.

The hotel is afraid I'm too young to work
with middle-aged tourists.

I hope I can do half as well.

You're a comic?

Well, if I have to be to stay in Honolulu.

Hey, anybody call me?

No.

See your old girlfriend?

What's her name?

Nani.

I saw her, and what's worse, she saw me.

Nani and the two brothers.

Boy, did I get out that fast.

You mean she's changed?

Let's put it this way.

If her two brothers come here looking for me,
you never heard of anybody named Charlie O'Keefe.

O 'Casey.

What makes you think they'll come looking?

Well, because Narnia's still got an eye
full of wedding bells.

Hey, Chip, I ain't leaving this place
until it's time to go home.

Then what?

Then this.

I bought it in a magic shop.

Pineapple juice.

Get your fresh pineapple juice right here.

Only 10 cents.

Best pineapple juice in Honolulu.

Right here.

The price is right.

Ernie, what do you think you're doing?

Selling this stuff.

I'm in business.

Honolulu's great.

I see.

And you got the pineapple juice?

In the hotel.

They have a faucet like a water faucet.

It's free.

But you're not supposed to sell it.

Why not?

We provide a service.

We bring it from a nice, cool lobby out
here where it's hot and thirsty.

Meet Fred.

I found him on the beach.

Dug him out of the sand.

Can't handle his last name.

Ishimoto, hi.

Oh, hi.

Hey, Mrs. Francisca, Donna, hi.

Ernie, you're going to get into trouble.

Uh-oh.

Hi.

Hello.

You know these kids?

Yes, sir.

They've taken pitchers of pineapple juice out of the hotel.

Officer, they didn't realize they were
doing anything wrong.

I'd be glad to pay whatever it is.

Nothing to pay.

Just kid stuff.

Relax.

Don't take any more juice.

After you sell what you've got on hand, close up shop.

Yes, sir.

Aloha.

Menehune.

Mahalo.

Man, he was really relaxed.

Everybody is.

This is my town.

Please never let it be Monday.

Pineapple juice!

Get your fresh pineapple juice!

Right here!

Only ten cents!

You've got to be kidding.

Me go down to that luau in public?

Yes.

Judy needs your help.

She's got to show the hotel.

Then she can handle adults.

I don't get it.

Here's a girl you like and you want to
help her out so you'll lose her.

Maybe Robbie wants us to boo.

So she'll have to go back to Bryant Park.

No.

No, I want her to make it all the way.

It could be my loss, but that's the way it is.

That's your problem.

My problem is to get out of Honolulu in one piece.

So no ducks.

The.

Way I figure, it wouldn't make any sense
for me to go to that luau.

I'd be a sitting duck.

Well, how come?

That Hawaiian lady doesn't know where you live.

Ernie, there's only so many hotels in this town.

And I guarantee you, Nani is going to keep looking.

She's got a lot of bulldog in her.

You really think she's that anxious to
marry you, Uncle Charley?

She's that anxious to marry anybody.

Wouldn't it be kind of nice to settle down in a little
grass shack with a guitar and a beautiful hula dancer?

Yeah, but her hula is a little rusty, and
the grass shack is just a pile of weeds.

Okay, so there's no sanction risk in your
neck just for another one of Robbie's girls.

Right.

So, Judy falls on her face at the luau,
and Robbie gets her back to Bryant Park.

Everybody wins.

So, what do you say to another round of pineapple juice?

Sure.

Why not?

One for the road.

Room service.

Here she comes.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,
and welcome to our luau.

I am Judy Leslie, a native-born Hawaiian.

By way of Bryant Park.

Was that a joke, Rob?

You want me to laugh?

No, no, no.

She's just talking to one of my mom.

As you know, luau means feast in Hawaiian.

Actually, you can divide it into two syllables, the lu
meaning stomach and the au meaning full stomach.

That was a joke.

That was a joke.

Boys, I'd like you to meet our lovely
dancer, lovely Mauna Loa.

Ah, hua, hua, here she comes.

Would you like to do the basic hula step first, dear?

Now.

We have dancing and you supply it.

Now, we need someone to follow lovely Mauna Loa.

How about you, sir?

How would you like to dance with this lovely girl?

It's lots of fun.

Would you like to, sir?

Really, it's true.

How about you, sir, say, work off some of that pot?

Come on, huh?

How about...

Hey, Uncle Charley.

How about another three fingers of pineapple juice?

Three fingers?

Where do you get that kind of talk?

Oh, Western's on TV.

The bad guy bellies up to the bar and
orders three fingers of red eye.

What if Judy's act is doing a flop down there?

What about it?

Well, Robbie and Chip trying to help,
but it won't do any good.

Like Robbie said, it takes adults to put her over.

So she's on the next plane back.

That's life.

Robbie down there doing a good deed,
knocking himself out to make her a hit.

And me up here hiding in a hotel room.

Look, Uncle Charlie, somebody wins, somebody loses.

You want those Hawaiian brothers to clobber you?

You want to get married tonight?

You want to wind up a broken-down beachcomber?

No.

Well, then it's logical for you to stay in
this room until we meet Dad and head home.

Play it safe.

You really believe that?

No.

Neither do I.

Here goes nothing.

Stay.

I hope she gets somebody up there pretty soon.

Come on, huh?

Please.

Well, this must be the place.

Hey, look.

I'd like to try some of this hula stuff.

Well, here's our dancing star.

Great.

Where'd you go?

Oh, no place.

What did you do?

Nothing.

Well, that sounds wonderful.

I have to do it again sometime.

Yeah, me.

Where's the rest of the g*ng?

Oh, they're hiding.

Over there.

They're hiding?

Yeah.

Well, they don't want to hang around the open too long.

On account of Uncle Charley's girlfriend.

Here comes Ernie.

Oh, hi, Beth.

Hello, Ernie.

Hi, Beth.

Hi, love.

Hi.

Hi, Charlie.

Come on, you guys go ahead and see if it's
clear to the plane.

Okay, Charlie.

Charlie, Chip said you had a quiet time.

What's all this?

Well, maybe it was quiet for him,
but Ernie almost got arrested and Robbie

fell in love and I came this close to
being overpowered and married.

Her brothers caught up with me in the middle of the
Lou Howe and chased me clear the Capilani Boulevard.

How was Maui?

Oh, fine.

Well, where'd you go?

I didn't go anyplace.

Well, what'd you do?

Nothing.

Uncle Charlie?

All clear.

All clear?

Yeah, let's go, Steve.

Charlie, what are you doing?

You said it was all clear.

Yeah, but I'm not taking any chances.

Come on, let's go.

Well, what are we going to do?

Stick around.

I'd be glad to.

There's another episode of My Three Sons
straight ahead on TV Land's Twice as Nice Morning.
