Harriet Nelson : Wh'ho, you certainly can not.
David Nelson : Don't be ridiculous, Ricky.
Ricky Nelson : I think it'd be fun.
Ozzie Nelson : No, I'm afraid figuring your income tax hardly comes under the classification of fun.
Harriet Nelson : Besides, your father'll have enough on his mind without having to worry about you.
Ozzie Nelson : Yeah, we don't want anything to happen to you guys.
David Nelson : Hey, that's right. We're deductible, huh, Pop.
Ozzie Nelson : Yes, David. The government allows us six hundred dollars a year for each of you boys. That pays for your shoes.

David Nelson : Oh, nothin' dangerous. Bob gets some good ideas, though.
Ricky Nelson : You oughta meet him, Pop. He's real crazy, man.
