David Nelson: I promised to help a couple of friends of mine.
Ricky Nelson: What about me? I'm your brother, you know.
David Nelson: Don't get maudlin.
Ricky Nelson: Oh, yeah? I suppose you think I don't know what that means.
David Nelson: Okay. What does it mean?
Ricky Nelson: Just for that, you can look it up yourself.
David Nelson: I told you, I promised to help a couple of friends of mine. A guy can have a couple of friends in this world, can't he?
Ricky Nelson: Oh, yeah? If it wasn't for me, you'd be an only child.
Oz gets talked into providing David as an escort to a dance for Thorny's niece, who just arrived in town. It seems Thorny's son is gone on an overnight camping trip and Oz's best buddy-neighbor wants something to take the girl to the dance. He hopes Oz will volunteer David, which he does.
David, who had just received words of wisdom from his dad earlier in the day about being too nice a guy and being taken advantage of, decides to act on his dad''s words and firmly-but-politely declines the invitation. Ozzie, acting very wimpy, is afraid to tell his neighbor the truth.
How he gets out of this predicament I won't say, for fear of spoiling the show for anyone.
This wasn't one of the better "Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet" episodes, so it surprises me it was the first one offered in the recently-released "Best Of Ozzie And Harriet" DVD package. I watched a few more before posting this and those were much funnier.
Watching these old Nelson Family shows just gives you a warm feeling. The parents and kids are wonderful people who treat each other with love and respect.
