It contrasts two children, Tommy and Billy. Billy is in the Cub Scouts and always polite, whereas Tommy is usually rude and in a bad mood because his dad is never home. Tommy is hit by a car and is sent to a hospital to recover where he is in a bed next to Billy. The two talk about the Cub Scouts as do the two children’s mothers. Tommy’s dad also comes to visit him and tells him that he used to be a Cub Scout himself. Tommy joins the Cub Scouts, does well, and is presented with his first merit badge at the end of the film. 0:11 Two children, Tommy and Billy, watching TV and eating snacks, 0:25 “To Tommy, with Love”, 0:29 Tommy’s mother joins and they all cheer for someone on TV, 0:57 Billy’s parents come in to pick him up and his mother is wearing a Scout uniform, 1:20 the mothers talk to each other, 2:06 Tommy’s mother talks to Billy’s parents in front of their car, 2:51 Tommy’s mother turns off the TV and sits down to talk to her son who is in a bad mood, 3:57 Tommy kicks a football against the garage door, 4:25 Tommy runs off screen and the sounds imply that he is hit by a car, 4:31 Tommy is in a hospital bed and his mom is on the phone with his dad, she hands the phone to Tommy and they continue the conversation, 5:22 Tommy angrily hangs up on his dad, 6:01 Billy is moved into the bed next to Tommy’s, 7:14 a moody Tommy and a cheerful Billy have a conversation while Billy plays with his toy car, 9:06 Tommy’s dad comes in and begins talking to both of them, 10:51 Tommy’s dad leaves again, 11:07 Tommy’s parents speak in the hallway, 12:13 Tommy and Billy’s mothers are speaking at the cafeteria, 14:44 Cub Scouts taking an oath in a workshop, 15:05 Tommy is introduced as the newest Cub Scout, 15:25 the two mothers are talking in the background, 16:06 Tommy’s mom gives him a birthday present which contains a cub scout uniform, 16:28 Tommy reads the card that accompanies it, 17:22 Cub Scouts carry in the Scout and American flag and say the Pledge of Allegiance, 17:38 Tommy sits down in front of his mother, 17:55 Scout Master makes a speech and hands out awards, including one to Tommy, 18:22 Tommy’s mother puts a badge on his uniform and Tommy’s father joins behind them, 18:40 Credits: Executive Producer Robert L.
