Paula Drew: Grandpop's Girl

Quotes 

• Grandpop's Girl : [offscreen]  Eeek! Oh, oh!

  Rusty Cammeron : [Grandpop Cammeron enters the store, whistles]  Grandpa!

  Pop Cammeron : What was that scream?

  Grandpop Cammeron : Ecstacy, my boy, sheer ecstasy. Warmed myself, and why shouldn't I? Let the ladies beware, let the music begin, there's many a good tune in an old violin.

  [to Pop Cammeron] 

  Grandpop Cammeron : How are you, son?

  Pop Cammeron : I'm glad you're here, father. Rusty's got a problem.

  Grandpop Cammeron : Oh? Well, speak freely, my boy, you're amongst a friend.

  Pop Cammeron : Uh, not too freely, he's at the age where he picks things up.

  Rusty Cammeron : Well, it's a terrible problem, Grandpa, and she's such a wonderful girl.

  Grandpop Cammeron : Oh, a dame, huh? You've got no problem.

  [laughs] 

  Grandpop Cammeron : So you got a girl, huh? Well - Junior, you better get back to bed, there's gonna be a lot of boy talk floating around here.

  Pop Cammeron : Now, you take it easy, Pop. I've met Miss Corlane, and she's a very sweet girl.

  Grandpop Cammeron : All girls are sweet. Now, uh, get lost, go cheat yourself at solitaire.

  Pop Cammeron : Can't I stay up?

  Grandpop Cammeron : You heard me!

  [Pop Cammeron leaves the room] 

  Rusty Cammeron : My goodness, Grandpa, what happened to you, you've changed.

  Grandpop Cammeron : I had to. For years I sat around in a rocking chair and carpet slipppers while the rest of the world went on without me.

  Rusty Cammeron : You look younger than Pop.

  Grandpop Cammeron : Sure I do now. I've gone modern, up-to-date, turned over a new page, Rusty, and it's mighty nice reading.

  Rusty Cammeron : I never would have believed it.
