In the family album segment, host George Murphy introduces the water ballet performed by Esther Williams in Ziegfeld Follies (1945). Next, he introduces the short film Our Old Car (1946), which presents the various automobiles owned by one family over the years and generations. The transportation/travel theme is continued with the next short film, What Do You Think?: Tupapaoo (1938), which describes the first encounter between a South Pacific island's inhabitants and the first non-native to land on the island. Finally, Murphy pays a visit to actress Donna Reed, who talks about her intense role in the soon to be released film, Ransom! (1956), from which a scene is shown.
