eat.
I know but...
Here, eat your head off.
I don't want it now.
- I thought you said you were hungry.
- I was, but...
But what?
I was so scared, it scared the hunger...
Holy jumping catfish.
You drive a guy crazy.
It's liable to get chilly before morning.
Better use this.
What are you thinking about?
By a strange coincidence,
I was thinking of you.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I was just wondering what makes
dames like you so dizzy.
What did you say
we're supposed to be doing?
Hitchhiking.
You've given me a very good example
of the hiking.
Where does the hitching come in?
It's a little early yet. No cars out.
If it's the same to you...
...l'm going to sit right here
and wait until they come.
You got a toothpick?
- What's the matter?
- I got hay in my teeth.
No, I haven't got a toothpick.
Here, I got a penknife, though.
Now hold still.
- Be careful.
- All right. Where is it?
All right, now hold still.
Here. Get it?
Thanks.
You should have swallowed that.
You won't have any breakfast, you know?
You needn't rub it in.
- What are you eating?
- Carrots.
- Raw?
- Want one?
No. Why didn't you get me
something I could eat?
That's right, I forgot. The idea
of offering a raw carrot to an Andrews.
You don't think I'm going around
panhandling for you, do you?
Have one of these.
Best thing for you, carrots.
I hate the horrid things.
I wish you wouldn't talk so much.
Now we let a car get away.
And suppose nobody stops for us?
They'll stop all right. It's a matter
of knowing how to handle them.
And you're an expert I suppose.
Expert. And I'll write a book
about it. Call it "The Hitchhiker's Hail."
There's no end to your accomplishments,
is there?
- You think it's simple?
- No.
Well, it is simple.
It's all in that old thumb, see?
Some people do it like this. Or like this.
All wrong. Never get anywhere.
The poor things.
But that old thumb never fails.
It's all a matter of how you do it, though.
Now you take No. 1, for instance.
That's a short jerky movement, like this.
That shows independence.
You don't care if they stop or not.
You got money.
- Clever.
- No. 2, that's a little wider movement.
Smile goes with this one, like this.
That means you got a brand-new story
about the farmer's daughter.
You figured that out all by yourself?
That's nothing. No. 3, that's a pip.
That's the pitiful one.
When you're broke and hungry,
everything looks black.
It's a long sweeping movement like this.
Gotta follow through, though.
That's amazing.
But it's no good,
if you haven't got a long face to go with it.
Here comes a car.
Okay. Now watch me.
I'm gonna use No. 1.
Keep your eye on that thumb, baby,
and see what happens.
I still got my eye on the thumb.
Something must have gone wrong.
I'll try No. 2.
When you get to 100, wake me up.
I don't think I'll write that book after all.
Think of all the fun you had, though.
You mind if I try?
You?
Don't make me laugh.
You're such a smart aleck.
Nobody knows anything but you.
I'll stop a car and I won't use my thumb.
What are you gonna do?
It's a system all my own.
Aren't you going to give me a little credit?
What for?
I proved once and for all that
the limb is mightier than the thumb.
Why didn't you take off all your clothes?
You could have stopped 40 cars.
I'll remember that when we need 40 cars.
So, you're just married?
That's pretty good.
But if I was young, that's the way
I'd spend my honeymoon. Hitchhiking.
Yes, sir. "Hitchhiking down the highway
"Of love on a honeymoon
"Hitchhiking down the highway, down"
Aren't you afraid you'll burn out a tonsil?
Tonsil? Me? No.
Me burn a tonsil? "My tonsils won't burn"
All right, let it go.
"Turn"
How about a bite to eat?
- That would be lovely.
- No thanks, we're not hungry.
Young people in love are never hungry.
No.
"Young people in love
"Are very seldom hungry
"People in love are very seldom hungry"
What were you going to do?
Gold dig that guy
