[Ozzie comes home after a disappointing fishing trip]
Ozzie Nelson : I didn't catch a whole mess of 'em, but I did catch a fish.
Ricky Nelson : You catch a big one, Pop?
Ozzie Nelson : Well, it's not exactly a whale, but it's a nice, medium-size. Very comfortable for a fish, I imagine. Let's see, where is it?
Harriet Nelson : Can't you even find it?
Ozzie Nelson : Well it's pretty dark in this basket. Oh, here it is. As I say, it's not awfully large.
[the skinny fish he pulls out couldn't be more than a few inches long]
Ozzie Nelson : Well, I imagine it's nice and tender.
Harriet Nelson : Why, sure. Fry it in a little butter, put it on a cracker, and I'll bet it's delicious.
Ozzie Nelson : Well, Harriet, if they're not biting, they're just not biting, that's all there is to it.
David Nelson : It's a nice-looking fish, though, Pop.
Ricky Nelson : Yeah. It's pretty big, considering how little it is.
