But when I asked my kids...
Kids, remember when I asked you
where you wanted to go on vacation?
What did you say?
Hawaii?
Shut up, Russ.
Audrey, you remember?
Walley World, Dad?
"Walley World, Dad! "
Roy Walley World.
Do you have any children, Mr. Walley?
Are you kidding? I have seven.
I thought so.
Seven, did you hear that, honey?
You look so young!
Did you ever drive them across country?
I took the whole clan
to Florida one year.
The worst two weeks
I ever had in my life.
The smell from the backseat
was too unbearable.
I know that smell.
Imagine how your kids would
have felt if Florida had been closed.
They don't close Florida.
I know they don't close
the state of Florida.
When we got here,
to Roy Walley World...
...and it was closed down...
If you had seen the look
on my kids faces.
I guess I went a little haywire.
You went a lot haywire,
if you ask me!
I'm very sorry, sir.
I'm sorry to all these people.
I didn't mean any harm.
I want you to ask yourself one thing.
If you were me...
...wouldn't you have done
the same thing for your children?
No.
Mr. Walley, do you want me to take
them downtown and book them?
No... no.
Forget it, officer.
I'm not going to press any charges.
What did I tell ya?
Did I say trust me?"I found out long ago"
"It's a long way down a Holiday Road"
"Jack be nimble, Jack be quick"
"Going to take a ride
to the West Coast, kids"
"Holiday Road!"
"Holiday Road!"
"Holiday Road!"
"Holiday Road!"
"I found out long ago"
"It's a long way down a Holiday Road"
"Holiday Road"
"Holiday Road"
"Holiday Road"
Clark Griswold.
I'm trading my wife's old car in.
Say good-bye
to the old gas-guzzler, Russ!
It's pretty exciting, isn't it, Rusty?
What's that, Dad?
Picking up the new car!
You can't wait, can you?
Hi there, Ed!
Good to see you, Mr. Griswold!
How are you doing?
Rubin right?
Rusty.
Look at him. He can't wait.
So, did you bring your trade-in?
Yes, a guy just took it away
a couple of seconds ago.
Well, let's get to it, then.
We were worried that the new car
might not be ready yet.
We're on our way to California
in the morning...
...big vacation, the whole family,
Walley World...
Walley World? Very exciting, Clyde.
Clark.
Well, there she is.
Where?
Right here. The wagon.
Dad, this is not the car you ordered!
Take it easy, Rusty.
Ed, this is not the car I ordered.
I distinctly ordered the Antarctic Blue,
Super Sportswagon...
...with the C.B. and the optional
Rally fun pack.
You didn't order the Metallic Pea?
Metallic Pea? No, Antarctic Blue.
The Sportswagon.
This isn't even the right model!
You know, I think you're right.
I don't think this is the car.
This is the new
Wagonqueen Family Truckster.
This is a fine automobile,
if you want my honest opinion.
It beats the hell out of
the Sportswagon but...
...I want to make you happy.
Davenport!
I'll get to the bottom of this.
Mr. Griswold ordered a blue Sportswagon.
Where is it?
I don't know, sir.
I know what must have happened!
It didn't come in!
Ed, I'm not your ordinary,
everyday fool. Okay?
Now, I'd like my Antarctic Blue
Super Sportswagon right now.
If you can't get it for me,
I'm going to take my business elsewhere!
Where's my old car?
I'm just as upset as you are.
Believe me.
Davenport!
Get Mr. Griswold's car back!
Bring it back here!
And I can get you the wagon,
there's no problem there.
The problem is, it might take six weeks.
Now, I owe it to myself
to tell you, Mr. Griswold...
...if you're thinking of taking
the tribe cross-country...
...this is the automobile
you should be using.
The Wagonqueen Family Truckster.
You think you hate it now,
but wait until you drive it.
I don't want to drive it.
I just want my old car back, okay?
I'm not falling for this bit.
No way. Let's go, Russ.
Clark, is that the right car?
No, it isn't, honey. I changed my mind.
They flattened our old car
like a pancake.
Are you serious?
Is
