The joke, the blown line and the silence

Here's Ozzie and Harriet, 450930.  Ozzie tells a joke.  It's not too bad.  Harriet chimes in something.  It's not too bad.  But "David" (not David Nelson but the imposter playing David in 1945) fluffs his line, even though it's a decent line.  But instead of waiting for the laugh than never will come, Harriet moves right along.  That's what you call a "pro."

Still, I thought David's line was worth a laugh, even with the fluff.
