| [00:00.23] | Full of Surprises |
| [00:04.56] | ACT I |
| [00:14.67] | The mailman just dropped some mail in our box, Grandpa. |
| [00:17.61] | Probably a lot of advertising and bills. |
| [00:21.28] | Why don't you write to me, Robbie, |
| [00:22.84] | so I can get some interesting mail? |
| [00:46.17] | You were right, Grandpa. |
| [00:48.15] | Advertising, bills, bills, advertising. |
| [00:53.82] | Yes. It's just like I said, Robbie. |
| [00:56.68] | Nothing interesting. |
| [00:58.26] | You won't believe it, Grandpa, |
| [01:00.45] | but there's a letter here addressed to you, |
| [01:02.65] | Mr. Malcolm Stewart, and it looks like a personal letter. |
| [01:05.36] | Oh, it must be a bill. |
| [01:06.90] | I don't think so. |
| [01:08.34] | The return name and address is |
| [01:10.01] | Pete Waters, RFD Number 1, Chesterton. |
| [01:13.56] | You're joking. Pete Waters? |
| [01:17.31] | Pete Waters, RFD Number 1, Chesterton. |
| [01:20.92] | You know him? |
| [01:22.08] | Do I know Pete Waters? |
| [01:24.74] | You bet I do! |
| [01:26.63] | He was my roommate in college. |
| [01:33.89] | He visited with Grandma and me in Florida |
| [01:36.04] | about five years ago. |
| [01:44.68] | What does he say? |
| [01:45.93] | Is he OK? |
| [01:47.97] | Yeah, he's fine. |
| [01:52.49] | Just fine. |
| [01:53.11] | He's writing to invite me |
| [01:53.91] | to spend a weekend with him at his farm. |
| [01:57.31] | He's planning a get-together |
| [01:58.66] | with two or three other college friends. |
| [02:01.57] | A kind of a fifty-year anniversary reunion. |
| [02:06.41] | Sounds like fun. |
| [02:08.55] | Fifty years? Wow! |
| [02:10.78] | It sounds like fun to me, too, Robbie. |
| [02:13.70] | What kind of farm does he have? |
| [02:15.91] | I've never been there, Robbie, |
| [02:18.03] | but he has chickens and cows and all. |
| [02:22.23] | That means fresh eggs and fresh milk. |
| [02:25.15] | Does he have a family? |
| [02:27.22] | No, he doesn't, Robbie. |
| [02:29.17] | He never married. |
| [02:30.89] | He's not as lucky as I am |
| [02:32.92] | to have a family and grandchildren. |
| [02:37.05] | I'm a lucky man. |
| [02:38.91] | How come he never got married? |
| [02:41.39] | That's a good question, Robbie. |
| [02:43.46] | A very good question. |
| [02:45.83] | He never married because |
| [02:47.94] | the girl he was in love with in college married someone else. |
| [02:51.39] | As simple as that. |
| [02:53.27] | He never got over it. |
| [02:55.32] | He must have loved her very much. |
| [02:57.23] | Yes. Very much. |
| [03:00.45] | Lillian Winters. |
| [03:02.25] | She was in our class. |
| [03:03.91] | And what happened? |
| [03:05.46] | She was in love with Donald McGrath, |
| [03:07.95] | the quarterback on our football team. |
| [03:10.43] | Football players are always popular with the ladies. |
| [03:14.28] | She liked Pete, and they went to dances together. |
| [03:18.24] | But her heart was with Donald. |
| [03:20.82] | Did he ever get over it? |
| [03:23.17] | No, he never did. |
| [03:23.56] | Where is she today? |
| [03:26.73] | I don't know. |
| [03:29.07] | Maybe Lillian will be at the reunion. |
| [03:31.46] | You think so? |
| [03:32.92] | Pete's full of surprises. |
| [03:34.85] | I wish I could go there with you, Grandpa. |
| [03:37.26] | What do you think the surprise will be? |
| [03:40.44] | With Pete, you never know, Robbie. |
| [03:43.33] | Won't it be exciting to see all your college friends there again? |
| [03:47.39] | It is already. |
| [03:49.89] | I'm kind of excited about going now. |
| [03:54.79] | Next weekend ... |
| [03:56.55] | sleep over Friday and Saturday night |
| [03:59.69] | and come back Sunday. |
| [04:02.53] | I can't wait! |
| [04:06.37] | Don't you think you ought to call Pete |
| [04:07.89] | and tell him you're coming? |
| [04:09.38] | You're reading my mind, Robbie. |
