00:02:59What are we stopping for?
00:03:01The rest of the night, I should think, Governor.
00:03:03What street's this?
00:03:04It was Spark Lane, but I seen it last.
00:03:06Anything I can do?
00:03:07I want to get to Dorset Square.
00:03:08Not tonight, sir.
00:03:09Your best bet is the Royal Parks Hotel.
00:03:11Where's that?
00:03:12Just here, sir.
00:03:13Follow me.
00:03:14All right.
00:03:17Bring the bags, will you?
00:03:18Yes, sir.
00:03:20Be careful. Three steps here, sir.
00:03:26All right, thanks very much.
00:03:27Thanks, Governor.
00:03:29All right.
00:03:34Want a single room and bath, please, just for the night?
00:03:36I'm sorry, sir.
00:03:37The best I can offer you is a small suite.
00:03:39We're almost following to the fog.
00:03:40The fog?
00:03:41All right.
00:03:42317.
00:03:43This way, sir.
00:03:59I'm sorry.
00:04:01I'm sorry, sir.
00:04:02I'm sorry, sir.
00:04:04I'm sorry, sir.
00:04:05I'm sorry.
00:04:06I'm sorry.
00:04:07We had a little bit of a house.
00:04:08I'm sorry, sir.
00:04:09Let's go.
00:04:27Shall we sit down?
00:04:34Well, Mather in May's all right, but Mather's nice.
00:04:38Don't be so unpatriotic, Michael.
00:04:40Fog is one of our greatest attractions.
00:04:42That's what the Americans come to see us for.
00:04:45Ladies and gentlemen, the committee wish me to announce
00:04:48that owing to the extremely bad fog tonight,
00:04:50those of you who have any considerable distance to travel
00:04:53are advised to stop overnight in the hotel.
00:04:56Now, now. May I take you home, Leslie?
00:04:59No, thank you, Michael.
00:05:00I think I'll take the committee's advice and try and stay here tonight.
00:05:03I doubt if you'll get a room.
00:05:05Look at the crowd storming the reception block there.
00:05:12Just you leave it to me. Good night, Michael.
00:05:14Good night, Michael.
00:05:25I'm sorry, Mather. Not every single room in the house.
00:05:27We have nothing. That was the last room.
00:05:29What was the last room?
00:05:31I will ask the manager.
00:05:32Mr. Bianco said we can do something for you.
00:05:34We will, I'm sure.
00:05:35Mr. Bianco, please.
00:05:37Please, please, please.
00:05:40Ladies and gentlemen, every room in this hotel is taken.
00:05:44The best I can do for you is to offer you accommodation
00:05:46in the lounge and in the reception rooms.
00:05:48There are some very comfortable divans and chairs,
00:05:50and you will be welcomed.
00:05:52Surely some of the guests with sweets will be willing to give up their sitting rooms for one night.
00:06:01Oh, perhaps, sir. I will drive.
00:06:03Will you come with me, madam? This way, please.
00:06:05Thank you, madam. This way, please.
00:06:16What time of the morning, sir?
00:06:17Eight o'clock sharp, please, with breakfast.
00:06:19China tea, two boiled eggs, medium done. The time's in October.
00:06:22Thank you very much, sir. Good night, sir.
00:06:23Hello. You good?
00:06:25We'll ring me when you get them, will you?
00:06:32Oh, attorney. Just a moment, lady.
00:06:34Perhaps the gentleman in this street will help us.
00:06:37I hope so.
00:06:42Come in.
00:06:45Good evening, sir.
00:06:46I am the manager of this hotel.
00:06:48How do you do?
00:06:49On to the fog.
00:06:50Many of the guests who have been attending the ball
00:06:52find it impossible to get home.
00:06:54I am most anxious to find bedrooms for the ladies,
00:06:57and I hope you could help me.
00:07:00In what way?
00:07:01Well, we have several divans in the lounge, still vacant,
00:07:04and the chairs on the ground floor are very comfortable.
00:07:07You want me to give up this suite, don't you?
00:07:09If you would, please.
00:07:10I see.
00:07:11Now, let me make myself clear.
00:07:13I've been travelling for two days.
00:07:15I've had an extremely filthy crossing.
00:07:16My train was two hours late at Victorian Station.
00:07:19I'm very tired and very cross.
00:07:21In fact, quite wild with fatigue.
00:07:23But I am the legal possessor of this suite,
00:07:25and I'm determined to defend it with every power in my possession.
00:07:28Good night.
00:07:31But, sir, if you would just give up your sitting room,
00:07:33I could accommodate four ladies.
00:07:35No.
00:07:36No.
00:07:37No.
00:07:38No.
00:07:39I know the ladies, and I know myself.
00:07:40They'll have me out of here in five minutes.
00:07:41I'm very sorry.
00:07:42What I need really, very badly is a good night's sleep.
00:07:44And I shall have that, though every lady in London
00:07:46thinks me a cad, a brute, and a beast.
00:07:48Good night.
00:07:49Good night.
00:07:52By the way, is there a do not disturb card there?
00:07:56Very key.
00:07:57You might hang it on the door for me as you go out, will you?
00:08:02Very well.
00:08:27Well, I'm awfully sorry, dear.
00:08:28It really wasn't my fault.
00:08:29I really am terribly disappointed.
00:08:30Really.
00:08:31I'm quite, quite heartbroken, dear.
00:08:32Why?
00:08:33Well, dear, the train was late.
00:08:34Late.
00:08:35Yes, there was a fog.
00:08:36Now, F-O-G.
00:08:37F as in fudge, dear.
00:08:38No, dear.
00:08:39Fudge.
00:08:40No, dear.
00:08:41Fudge.
00:08:42O as in osteoparone.
00:08:43Yes, dear.
00:08:44Why?
00:08:45Why don't you spend it with your husband for a change?
00:08:48No, no, no, no, go to school.
00:08:49Can't you read?
00:08:50No, no, no, I wasn't talking to you.
00:08:51Very sorry.
00:08:52I'm very sorry.
00:08:53I'm sorry.
00:08:54I'm sorry.
00:08:55I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:08:56I'm sorry.
00:08:57I'm sorry.
00:08:58Why don't you have to be in the room?
00:08:59I'm sorry.
00:09:00I'm sorry.
00:09:01I'm sorry.
00:09:02I've been quite, quite heartbroken, dear.
00:09:04Why?
00:09:05Well, dear, the train was late.
00:09:06late.
00:09:07Yes, there was a fog.
00:09:08Fog.
00:09:09F. as in fudge, dear.
00:09:10No, dear, fudge.
00:09:11Well, I'll read it for you. It says, do not disturb.
00:09:16Aren't they? No, I don't know.
00:09:19Oh, go on, darling. He's never looking at anybody else.
00:09:22That's silly.
00:09:25No, it does not. It's more polite.
00:09:28It says, please do not disturb.
00:09:41Well?
00:09:47Well, what?
00:09:50That's just what I'd like to know.
00:09:52To whom do I owe the unexpected pleasure to post visit?
00:09:55I mean, what's the general idea?
00:09:57I was just looking for something.
00:10:00Oh, whatever it is, I'm afraid you won't find it in my room.
00:10:04I'm very tired. I was looking for a place to sleep.
00:10:08Oh.
00:10:11And this seems practically ideal for that purpose.
00:10:13Yes, that's just what I was thinking when you came bursting in.
00:10:15I didn't burst. I crept.
00:10:17Oh, may I ask when you propose to creep out again?
00:10:20Oh, after the usual eight hours and breakfast.
00:10:22Oh, really?
00:10:24So we're going to bunk in together, are we?
00:10:27There are two rooms, one for each of us.
00:10:29Yes, but both beds are in here.
00:10:31There's a couch in there. You can have the couch.
00:10:35What?
00:10:37Of all the shameless impudence, was there ever anything more female
00:10:42and you actually thought you could get away with it?
00:10:44If you had any decent feelings, you'd insist on turning out.
00:10:47Did you or did you not hear what I said to the manager?
00:10:49Naturally, I overheard some of it.
00:10:51Yes.
00:10:52So little feeling that you would touch my bed from under my very nose,
00:10:54knowing perfectly both that I've been up for two nights
00:10:56and I've got a hard day's work tomorrow,
00:10:57assuming I can't resist your fascination.
00:10:59I'm really very sleepy. Will you please go?
00:11:04You don't really mean that? You're much too nice to turn me out?
00:11:10Nice?
00:11:12Oh, dear young lady, you don't know me. The trouble with me is that I'm weak.
00:11:15A charming young girl like you could put anything over on me in five minutes,
00:11:18but at least I know my weakness, so I force myself to be rude,
00:11:21sometimes even brutal.
00:11:23You do like talking about yourself, don't you?
00:11:25Well, yes, most men do.
00:11:27But at least they know the truth about themselves. Women don't.
00:11:29They only know the truth about each other.
00:11:31Well, we'll have a nice long talk about you some other time.
00:11:34Now, as you're so very tired, I won't keep you up, so good night.
00:11:42What did you say?
00:11:43I said good night.
00:11:45Well, yes, I heard you say good night, but what do you mean by saying good night?
00:11:48You can't come here and say things like, look here, I'm very, very tired.
00:11:51Would you please go?
00:11:52You don't mean that.
00:11:53Oh, yes, I do.
00:11:54I've met too many women like you before.
00:11:56Conceited, sure of yourself, and sure of your power over men.
00:11:58Utterly unscrupulous, ruthless, conceited, spoiled.
00:12:01Don't do that.
00:12:02You're married, aren't you?
00:12:06Yes.
00:12:08Yes, yes, I'm right.
00:12:10There's a poor wretched husband waiting for you, sitting at home,
00:12:12wondering where you are, hoping against hope that his worst fears aren't justified.
00:12:15And this time, for whence, they aren't.
00:12:17This time, you're with a man who isn't in the least bit stirred by your challenge.
00:12:19Now, I must repeat, will you, please?
00:12:21How do you know so much about women?
00:12:23Because in my profession, I have to be able to see what's behind those lovely deceiving lips.
00:12:27Are you a dentist?
00:12:28No.
00:12:29I'm a barrister.
00:12:30And the next time we meet, we'll probably be in court when your husband is suing you for a divorce.
00:12:34Divorce?
00:12:35Oh, no.
00:12:36He'd never do that.
00:12:37You must have a very beautiful nature.
00:12:38You've had a very tiring journey, have you?
00:12:39Yes, I have.
00:12:40And it's such a pity that the fog made you late and spoiled your evening.
00:12:44But remember, it's that same fog that's now keeping me from going home to my dear husband.
00:12:48If you don't mind, Martine, what is your name?
00:12:55I do mind, a little.
00:12:57Good.
00:12:58You have some sense of discretion, anyway.
00:12:59And you may have my couch for the night.
00:13:01No, Iris.
00:13:02Try not to keep away from me or I might change my mind.
00:13:11Good night.
00:13:12Lady X.
00:13:14Good night.
00:13:16You dear.
00:13:18Kind.
00:13:19Generous.
00:13:22Beautiful man.
00:13:32Oh, Mr.
00:13:42What is it?
00:13:43Would you come in here for a minute?
00:13:45Please?
00:13:51What?
00:13:52I thought I'd try the couch, but you see for yourself, it's impossible to sleep on.
00:13:55There's a nice thick rug on the floor. Try that.
00:13:57But there are two beds in your room.
00:13:59Well?
00:14:04I'd never dream of such a thing.
00:14:08But...
00:14:10We could move one of the beds in here, couldn't we?
00:14:14Well, yes, I suppose we could.
00:14:17I'll... I'll ring for the waiter.
00:14:20Do you think we should disturb him?
00:14:24No. No, perhaps we shouldn't.
00:14:26If you wait here, I'll bring it in myself.
00:14:30I'll come and help you.
00:14:32Now, Red, don't ease and help me. Come and help you.
00:14:33Oh, I wouldn't dream of letting you do it by yourself.
00:14:34You were kind enough to offer me, or then I must offer you my...
00:14:37All right. We'll take that, Emily.
00:14:38Now, when I say, to me, from you.
00:14:39To me, from you.
00:14:40No, no, no. From you, to me.
00:14:42To me.
00:14:44To me.
00:14:46I think you'd better leave this to me.
00:14:47Come on.
00:14:48Come on.
00:14:49This is all the way you're going to get.
00:14:50Come on. In there.
00:14:51This is perfectly good enough for you.
00:14:53Come on.
00:14:54Very lucky to get this.
00:14:55You're going to be very angry, darling.
00:14:56Stand there.
00:14:57Let me do it.
00:14:58Goodness' sake, John, try to help me again.
00:14:59That's all the way you're going to get.
00:15:00Come on.
00:15:01In there.
00:15:02This is perfectly good enough for you.
00:15:03Come on.
00:15:04Very lucky to get this.
00:15:05You're going to be very angry, darling.
00:15:06Stand there.
00:15:07Let me do it.
00:15:08Goodness' sake, John, try to help me again.
00:15:09That's all the way you're going to get.
00:15:10Come on.
00:15:11Come on.
00:15:12Come on.
00:15:13Come on.
00:15:14Stand there.
00:15:15Let me do it.
00:15:16Goodness' sake, John, try to help me again.
00:15:17That's all the way you're going to get.
00:15:18Women all the same.
00:15:19I can't help anyone.
00:15:20Come on.
00:15:21The men move her bed without killing him.
00:15:22They can't even try to attempt to make her bed.
00:15:23John's in the home.
00:15:24Shooting hopeless.
00:15:26That's sick.
00:15:27Poor scum.
00:15:28Poor scum.
00:15:30Black serious?
00:15:32Regal?
00:15:33Could anyone ask about a better place to spend the night?
00:15:36No.
00:15:37Good night.
00:15:39Good night.
00:15:40Good night.
00:15:49Oh, and thank you.
00:16:09Hi.
00:16:10The Lord, will she?
00:16:12What is it?
00:16:16I can't possible see from this costume.
00:16:17Better take it off.
00:16:30What shall I put on?
00:16:33As I'm concerned, nothing.
00:16:35You always think of yourself.
00:16:39Can't you spare some pajamas?
00:16:41Take those off the bed.
00:16:44What's the matter?
00:16:46How can a man wear a wig and robe with dignity in an English court if this represents his taste?
00:16:50Do you think I'll have time to go and buy pajamas?
00:16:52Then break with her.
00:16:53With whom?
00:16:54She who buys pajamas such as these cannot be a good woman.
00:16:57Break with her.
00:16:58We parted six months ago.
00:17:00Then there's some hope for you.
00:17:03Perhaps.
00:17:33What is it?
00:17:34You seem to have forgotten me.
00:17:35I wish I could.
00:17:36What do you want?
00:17:37The elementary right of a wash.
00:17:38Here's the bathroom.
00:17:39But I have to cross your bedroom.
00:17:40You're wearing my pajamas, aren't you?
00:17:41That's the trouble.
00:17:42Well, what do you expect me to do?
00:17:43Jump out of the window?
00:17:44Either that or turn your face to the wall.
00:17:45I'm facing the wall.
00:17:46Now, don't you move.
00:17:47How long for?
00:17:48Until I tell you.
00:17:49I'd have to become giddy if I go outside the window.
00:17:50I'm facing the wall.
00:17:51Now, don't you move.
00:17:52How long for?
00:17:53Until I tell you.
00:17:54I have to become giddy if I go on staring at this wallpaper.
00:17:56Set your eyes.
00:17:57Sound the alarm if you're approaching again.
00:17:58Oh, no.
00:17:59No, no, no.
00:18:00No, no.
00:18:01No, no.
00:18:02No, no.
00:18:03No, no.
00:18:04No, no.
00:18:05No, no.
00:18:06No, no.
00:18:07No, no.
00:18:08No, no.
00:18:09No, no.
00:18:10No, no.
00:18:11No, no.
00:18:12No, no.
00:18:13Now, don't you move.
00:18:14How long for?
00:18:15Until I tell you.
00:18:18I'd have to become giddy if I go on staring at this wallpaper.
00:18:20Set your eyes.
00:18:24Sound the alarm if you're approaching again.
00:18:41Is that the alarm?
00:18:56Not yet.
00:18:58What are you doing?
00:19:00I'm in bed.
00:19:11Didn't you say one could sleep just as well out there?
00:19:15I did.
00:19:16Have it, then.
00:19:17It's better for both of us.
00:19:19For both of us?
00:19:20Well, can't you see what a delicate, what a painful situation I'm in?
00:19:24Out there, I'm a guest trespassing on a man's chivalry.
00:19:27And here, with everything around me, the... that and that.
00:19:32I feel less like an intruder and more like the legal owner of the suite.
00:19:36I see.
00:19:37Your conscience at rest?
00:19:39Just think how much better you'd sleep.
00:19:41All right.
00:19:42You win.
00:19:43Oh, no, no, no.
00:19:44You win.
00:19:45Over yourself.
00:19:46You win!
00:19:52I shall see you one day in the divorce court.
00:19:54You'll never see me in the divorce court.
00:19:56Don't you purge yourself!
00:19:57I shall see you in the divorce court if this is a sample of your ordinary behavior.
00:20:00But is there anything wrong in what we do?
00:20:02Is there anything wrong in what I do?
00:20:05No.
00:20:06Good night.
00:20:07Good night.
00:20:08Sleep well.
00:20:09Another long story
00:20:12Come on.
00:20:17Now...
00:20:18Good night.
00:20:20Good night.
00:20:21Sleep well.
00:20:39¶¶
00:21:09What are you looking for?
00:21:11My book.
00:21:18You give me that book.
00:21:19You can take any other book but this.
00:21:20There is no other book but that.
00:21:22But I simply couldn't give this up.
00:21:23I must know who killed the wealthy and wise Chinese banker.
00:21:26Don't tell me.
00:21:27I want to do it myself. I've only read half of it.
00:21:29Here, I'll make you an offer.
00:21:30The offer is unacceptable.
00:21:31But you can't read the whole book tonight.
00:21:33Oh, but I very seldom do that. I read the beginning and I read the end.
00:21:39Can you kill someone?
00:21:41Can it have been the mysterious lady in pajamas?
00:21:46Yes.
00:22:09mystic generalist
00:22:21Yes.
00:22:22Yes, I can't fear anyone inside.
00:22:23Ah.
00:22:27Yes, I don't know.
00:22:31Yes, I cannot before.
00:22:32And anyone inside,
00:22:34I'm not sure,
00:22:36A lot of people out there.
00:23:08Good morning, sir.
00:23:13Eight o'clock, sir.
00:23:14Nice morning.
00:23:16Your breakfast is served, sir.
00:23:18What?
00:23:19Your breakfast is served, madam.
00:23:21Oh, thank you.
00:23:24Would you bring another one, please?
00:23:26Another what, madam?
00:23:29Another breakfast.
00:23:31Certainly, sir.
00:23:32Madam.
00:24:38I've had a rotten night's sleep, and I've got to be in court by half-past ten.
00:24:54Sharpie-dong now.
00:24:55Yes, we all know what that means.
00:25:03Hello. What about my breakfast?
00:25:06What?
00:25:06What do you mean, I've had two already?
00:25:11The second breakfast, madam.
00:25:15I mean, sir.
00:25:17What's the matter with you?
00:25:18Well, the fog was pretty severe last night, sir, and things seemed to be a little disorganized this morning.
00:25:26You're telling me? Take that into the other room.
00:25:28Yes, sir. What about that one, sir?
00:25:31That and that, too.
00:25:31Oh, certainly, sir.
00:25:37Now, oh. Good morning.
00:25:40Good morning.
00:25:41Good morning.
00:25:41Good morning.
00:25:50Hello?
00:25:51Barclay 6347.
00:25:55Hello.
00:25:56Hello. Is that you, Jeffress?
00:25:57Is his lordship down yet?
00:25:58No, no. Don't disturb him. But, um, will you tell him I spent the night with the Royal Parks Hotel? Then I'll be along later.
00:26:04Well, you know what his lordship's like, Miss Leslie. Like he's naughty beyond your tail for being on the tiles last night.
00:26:09You'd better give me your room number, if you please.
00:26:11Oh. Uh, beautiful. What's the number of this room?
00:26:16317.
00:26:17I was talking to the waiter. Uh, what did you say?
00:26:20317.
00:26:21317. Yes. Goodbye.
00:26:26What have you done with my breakfast?
00:26:28It's a letter.
00:26:30Do you think of everything?
00:26:31Breakfast is served, sir.
00:26:33Me... It's ready.
00:26:36Ah, good.
00:26:37By the way, what is your name?
00:26:41Logan.
00:26:42Logan?
00:26:43No, not Logan. It's not Chinese. Logan.
00:26:45Don't like it.
00:26:52For me?
00:26:53Yes.
00:27:00May I?
00:27:01Oh, yes, do.
00:27:03Only don't mess with that.
00:27:05Okay.
00:27:07Oh, look what you've done. You've got it in the butter and the marmalade.
00:27:19Blimey.
00:27:25Hold.
00:27:32I ordered these eggs medium boiled.
00:27:34Disgraceful.
00:27:35In a big hotel like this.
00:27:36Yours the same?
00:27:37No, mine are just right.
00:27:46Cold.
00:27:47Like...
00:27:48Dish water.
00:27:49Try some marmalade.
00:27:50It'll probably taste the printer's ink.
00:27:53No, thank you.
00:27:54You must eat something, you know, with a long, hard day's work ahead of you.
00:27:57I really don't want it to think, thank you.
00:27:58Do you mind telling me this morning what your name is?
00:28:04Leslie.
00:28:06What, Leslie?
00:28:08What do you mean, what, Leslie?
00:28:10Leslie is my Christian name.
00:28:11Oh.
00:28:13Leslie.
00:28:16And.
00:28:17What's yours?
00:28:18Everard.
00:28:23What?
00:28:24Everard.
00:28:28Incredible.
00:28:29You don't like that either?
00:28:31Never get used to that.
00:28:32Well, who's asking you to?
00:28:33Is there anything else you'd like to know?
00:28:34Yes, one more thing.
00:28:35You always like this in the morning?
00:28:37Until I have my first cigarette.
00:28:38There you go.
00:28:43Thank you so much.
00:28:44You're very sorry for the woman you're going to marry.
00:28:56I shan't marry.
00:28:58Unless I can arrange that little divorce for you.
00:29:01Heavens.
00:29:02Time.
00:29:11What do you say?
00:29:12About what?
00:29:13That divorce.
00:29:14I told you I shan't need your professional services.
00:29:17Thanks very much.
00:29:18Your poor, benighted husband, mate.
00:29:20And why poor, benighted?
00:29:21Because you deceive him.
00:29:22I certainly do not.
00:29:24Oh.
00:29:25Didn't I hear you telephone that you were talking to a waiter?
00:29:28I ask you.
00:29:29Me.
00:29:29A waiter.
00:29:30What did you say you were?
00:29:32A solicitor?
00:29:33Solicitor.
00:29:34Lawyer.
00:29:35Barrister.
00:29:36And being a barrister, one does at least learn to judge human character.
00:29:39What'll I like that from you in the witness box?
00:29:41I'd know what to think about you, all right?
00:29:43Let's see who's my fate with you, then, hmm?
00:29:45You weren't priceless there, sirseth.
00:29:51I'm dying to hear it.
00:29:54You're a perfect angel in the morning.
00:29:56I'm perfectly insufferable.
00:29:58That's a very quality of a woman.
00:29:59The wife, who must be adorable.
00:30:03That's a very rash statement, seeing we're complete strangers.
00:30:06But anything but, we know each other better than most people after they've been married
00:30:10for years.
00:30:11We're tied together by invisible bonds.
00:30:14How can we part now forever?
00:30:16How can we meet again as perfect strangers?
00:30:18How can I say the things to you the perfect strangers say to each other?
00:30:23Now, I must see you again.
00:30:25Where can we meet?
00:30:27Savoy, embassy, clarities?
00:30:29Lunch, dinner, supper?
00:30:32Today, tomorrow?
00:30:34Tonight?
00:30:37Are you free tonight?
00:30:38Come on, come on, come on.
00:30:44Are you or aren't you?
00:30:46Come on, come on.
00:30:47Come on, come on, Keane.
00:30:48Are you or aren't you?
00:30:53Answer me, woman.
00:30:56Where are you?
00:31:03Oh, I'm sorry.
00:31:04I beg your pardon.
00:31:08My dear, that was the creature that lay gloating in bed all night
00:31:12while we were rolling about on the billiard table.
00:31:15Peace.
00:31:38Have you finished with the trays, madam?
00:31:59Yeah.
00:32:00Very good, sir.
00:32:02I suppose you'd describe this liquid as a concoction of coffee beans.
00:32:10I'll tell you what it is.
00:32:13Dishwater.
00:32:14Taste of the gutter.
00:32:19For 40 years, I have been asking you to give me medium-boiled eggs.
00:32:25Are these medium-boiled?
00:32:26They are not.
00:32:28They are in the same fluid and virginal state as when they left the hen.
00:32:39You've been messing this paper about.
00:32:42You've been trying to do the crossword puzzle.
00:32:44I don't read your paper.
00:32:46I have my own.
00:32:47And you know it.
00:32:48Altogether, I know too much about you.
00:32:50Then I'd better go altogether.
00:32:54That is exactly what I wanted to tell you.
00:33:05Good morning, Miss Leslie.
00:33:07Good morning.
00:33:08What's the matter, Jeffries?
00:33:09His lordship's just given me notice again.
00:33:11Oh.
00:33:12Oh, come along.
00:33:12He's just taking his cigar.
00:33:17Good morning, Grandpa.
00:33:18Leslie, where have you been?
00:33:20Hasn't Jeffries told you?
00:33:22I most certainly did tell you.
00:33:23Oh, thank you.
00:33:24You know perfectly well there was a fog last night.
00:33:27And Miss Leslie spent the night at the Royal Parks Hotel.
00:33:29My father and mother are in India.
00:33:31And I'm responsible for her.
00:33:32So am I.
00:33:33You?
00:33:34I'm my grandfather.
00:33:36Seems I know her better.
00:33:37Well, I'm appalled to think that my granddaughter should leave this house at nine in the evening
00:33:41and return at nine in the morning.
00:33:43You know perfectly well there are some girls you can't trust to go out and post a letter.
00:33:46But Miss Leslie, you can trust to go to the North Pole.
00:33:49Isn't it my duty to ask her for a full account of her goings?
00:33:52Full account?
00:33:54You're not a prying and meddlesome judge.
00:33:56You're an adoring Grandpa.
00:34:00Grandpa?
00:34:01Yes, darling?
00:34:02Do you know a man called Logan?
00:34:04Logan?
00:34:05Logan Everard.
00:34:07Barrister of the law.
00:34:07Wait a second.
00:34:08Wait a second.
00:34:10Logan.
00:34:11Yeah, he'll be in my court today.
00:34:13Will he?
00:34:14Mm-hmm.
00:34:14Splendid.
00:34:15What's he like, Grandpa?
00:34:16Logan.
00:34:18Oh, he's a good cross-examiner.
00:34:20Oh, but a wretched fisherman.
00:34:23Why do you ask?
00:34:24I think he'll marry me.
00:34:26Did he propose?
00:34:27Oh, no.
00:34:29He doesn't know about it yet.
00:34:32Well, if he didn't know about it, how'd he?
00:34:35Leslie!
00:34:36What one are you wearing?
00:34:38Bad taste, aren't they?
00:34:39They're his pajamas.
00:34:40Who's?
00:34:41Logan's.
00:34:42How come, sir, you're wearing the pajamas of a man whose existence yesterday you knew nothing?
00:34:46I slept in his bed.
00:34:48What?
00:34:49Well, you see, he has two beds.
00:34:51So he'll be transported number two into the sitting room, and I slept in number one.
00:34:55Luckily, this is the limit.
00:34:57Didn't I tell you Miss Leslie was all right?
00:34:59You don't understand the new generation.
00:35:00No, I don't think anybody else does, either.
00:35:03Grandpa?
00:35:04Yes, dear?
00:35:05He doesn't know who I am.
00:35:06Who?
00:35:07Logan.
00:35:09He thought I was a woman, and a very wicked woman.
00:35:12Not much like a woman.
00:35:14Certainly not like a wicked woman.
00:35:16But I behaved like one.
00:35:18And he saw this ridiculous thing and thought I was married.
00:35:21He's a blockhead.
00:35:23He certainly is not.
00:35:25If a slip of a gal in the ring can deceive a man, he must be a dunce.
00:35:31Jeffries, did it never happen when you were a little younger that Grandpa was led up the garden path by a gal?
00:35:37Never.
00:35:40And you're a wise and great judge now.
00:35:43And so will Logan be one day, given a little time.
00:35:45And then no one will be able to fool him.
00:35:47How much time?
00:35:49Oh, 40 or 50 years.
00:35:51Oh, you take that notice I gave you seriously?
00:35:56No, milord.
00:35:58Good boy.
00:36:13Good morning, Mr. Logan.
00:36:14Morning, sir.
00:36:15Thank you, Tom.
00:36:16Welcome back to London.
00:36:18It's a sweet little town.
00:36:19Except for the weather, of course.
00:36:21What's the matter with it?
00:36:22London weather's the best in the world.
00:36:24Last night's fog, for example.
00:36:26Exactly.
00:36:27Where else would you find such a phenomenon?
00:36:29The finest city in the world dons an impenetrable veil of mystery.
00:36:33Life becomes an enthralling adventure.
00:36:35Fate guides your footsteps and at any moment you might meet a miracle.
00:36:39I see.
00:36:40Then you did meet the miracles.
00:36:41Oh, yeah.
00:36:42Meet them, Logan.
00:36:43But strictly speaking, you're always in the habit of meeting miracles, fog or no fog.
00:36:48And if I might say a word upon that subject, isn't it about time you stopped these encounters with miracle after miracle?
00:36:55He knows me, my dear fellow.
00:36:57Member of my club.
00:36:58What?
00:36:58Mayor.
00:37:01Mayor.
00:37:02Oh, Lord Mayor.
00:37:03Yes, yes.
00:37:03How do you do?
00:37:04How are you, my dear chap?
00:37:05How are you?
00:37:05Terribly well.
00:37:06Don't ask me.
00:37:07I'm terribly unwell.
00:37:08What's the trouble?
00:37:09The trouble?
00:37:10The trouble?
00:37:11My wife.
00:37:12What's the trouble of his lady, Mayor?
00:37:14The trouble?
00:37:14She's just spent the night with a man.
00:37:16Isn't that trouble enough here?
00:37:18Isn't that grounds for divorce?
00:37:19It's enough for any court in the world.
00:37:21But the correct procedure is to see your solicitor.
00:37:22It is, I know the correct procedure, but the fellow at the club told me that you can dissolve a marriage as quickly as an aspirin tablet.
00:37:27So before going to any solicitor, chap, I want your advice.
00:37:29Yes, well, I'm rather busy.
00:37:30So if you'll give me the essential facts and I'll do as possible.
00:37:32Well, I'll give you the essentials.
00:37:32You spent the night with...
00:37:33Yes, yes, I know.
00:37:35But do you love her?
00:37:37Well, I mean, say, yes.
00:37:42Why do you want to divorce her?
00:37:43Well, dash it all.
00:37:44Although one can't afford to make a fool, can one?
00:37:46After all of our limits.
00:37:47Yes, I understand you perfectly, Lord Mayor.
00:37:49You've given your wife, your name, your fortune, and your devoted love.
00:37:53She, in return, has given you the anguish of humiliation.
00:37:56That's it.
00:37:56You have it exactly, my dear fellow.
00:37:59I've heard the same story too many times.
00:38:01The adoring husband of a cheating wife.
00:38:04What evidence have you?
00:38:05Last night, she left the house before dinner and didn't return until nine o'clock this morning, suspicious in itself.
00:38:10Then, as the eyewitness testimony of the maid who went to the hotel and saw her...
00:38:14What hotel was it?
00:38:15The Royal Park.
00:38:17I dare say you saw in the paper there was a costume ball given there last night.
00:38:23A charity affair.
00:38:24Aha, charity.
00:38:25Yes, yes, I heard something about that.
00:38:27Now, there's another very significant point.
00:38:29She was out all night and in fancy dress.
00:38:32Can you wonder if I'm being a bit upset?
00:38:33No, no, no, I don't wonder at all.
00:38:35But tell me, what sort of costume did she wear?
00:38:38I don't see the costumes any bearing on the matter.
00:38:39Oh, yes, it has, for instance.
00:38:40If she'd been dressed with the deep sea diver, one would feel easier about it.
00:38:43Ah, but she wasn't.
00:38:44She was entrancingly beautiful.
00:38:45She was dressed as a French lady of the Second Empire.
00:38:48You know, the Empress Eugénie.
00:38:49Crinolines, that sort of thing.
00:38:51Yes, I know.
00:38:52It was a very heavy fog last night.
00:38:53Yes, I'm conscious of it.
00:38:55Now, I couldn't have come to my wife to the ball.
00:38:57Like a fool, I went to a banquet, you know, old regiment.
00:38:59Good chap's bad food.
00:39:00Yes, yes, yes.
00:39:01Get on with it, please.
00:39:01What happened?
00:39:02She spent the night at the hotel, but not alone.
00:39:05How do you know?
00:39:06From Saunders.
00:39:07Who's Saunders?
00:39:08Her maid.
00:39:08How does she know?
00:39:09Because she went to the hotel with some clothes.
00:39:11Did your wife ask for the clothes?
00:39:12She did not.
00:39:13She just telephoned about nine o'clock to say that she was coming home presently, but I sent Saunders.
00:39:17And Saunders heard from the corridor of the hotel that she was talking in her room with a man.
00:39:22Did Saunders go in?
00:39:23Saunders did not.
00:39:23She's clever and loyal.
00:39:24She listened.
00:39:25What did she hear?
00:39:26She saw.
00:39:27She saw my wife emerging from the room at about a quarter to nine, and she saw a man come out of the same room after her.
00:39:37And?
00:39:38And then what?
00:39:39Isn't that enough for you?
00:39:41Enough?
00:39:43You have the audacity to bring against your wife the most serious charge that can be brought against a woman,
00:39:47and you expect me to mobilize the law against a superb woman on the grounds of Saunders listening at her door,
00:39:52quarter to nine, fancy dress, and a strange young man?
00:39:55What, you mean you refuse my case?
00:39:57That is no case.
00:39:58I refuse it indignantly.
00:39:59You'll only listen to Saunders.
00:40:00I don't wish to listen to Saunders.
00:40:01I've heard quite enough.
00:40:02From all that you've said, Lord Mayor, I've gained a very clear picture of your wife.
00:40:06A noble woman, fearless, devoted, pure in heart, not at all the type of woman that would do anything to dismerge the family discussion.
00:40:13What about by humiliation?
00:40:14You took her for better or worse, didn't you?
00:40:16And she promised to love, honor, and obey.
00:40:19Think back to that sacred ceremony.
00:40:20There she stood, an innocent girl, about to face the most perilous moment in her life.
00:40:26Look here, Lugan, you've got this slightly mixed.
00:40:27She was not an innocent girl.
00:40:28Before she married me, she was divorced from a fellow called Lauderdale, who trains racehorses.
00:40:35Oh.
00:40:36Ah, make her say, oh, again.
00:40:38Before she married Lauderdale, she was divorced from the Baron de Brissac, who makes an inferior grain of brandy.
00:40:43She's a French woman?
00:40:44An American.
00:40:45Her first husband was called Wild Man Kavanagh, a professional wrestler.
00:40:49By trade, she got rid of him at Reno.
00:40:53Seems impossible.
00:40:55Foreign manager, isn't she?
00:40:56She's so young.
00:40:57Who said she was so young?
00:40:59Uh, you did, didn't you?
00:41:00Ah, as a matter of fact, she looks young, and entrancingly so.
00:41:03But she's a serpent, Lugan, a viper, who coils herself about the heart of innocent men, and then strikes.
00:41:09Must be rid of her, or face certain ruin.
00:41:12Yes, I'm beginning to see your point, Lugan.
00:41:14Good fellow.
00:41:14Then you'll take my case.
00:41:15Well, I shall think it over.
00:41:17That's all I can say just now.
00:41:19I told you I was very busy.
00:41:22I'll call you later in the day.
00:41:24Very busy.
00:41:25Good day.
00:41:26Here, sir.
00:41:30Good day.
00:41:33A horse trainer, a brandy dealer, and a wrestler.
00:41:43What's the matter with you?
00:41:45Do you know who that was in here?
00:41:46Yes, Lord Myr.
00:41:47Everybody knows him.
00:41:49One of the best shots in the army.
00:41:50Oh, is he really?
00:41:52That costume belongs to his wife.
00:41:54What?
00:41:55Sir, the miracle's identified.
00:41:57Lady Myr.
00:41:58Oh, please don't whistle.
00:41:59You have got yourself into a nice mess now.
00:42:01How are you going to stand up in court and blag our correspondents for doing exactly what you've been doing yourself?
00:42:06Look here, Slade.
00:42:07That's the dreadful part of it.
00:42:09I didn't do anything.
00:42:10Oh, and what would you say to a correspondent who told you that?
00:42:13But it's true, I tell you.
00:42:14I swear to you.
00:42:15Nothing happened.
00:42:16Nothing at all.
00:42:17All right.
00:42:18Go ahead and swear.
00:42:19But, Mr. Logan, do you expect me to believe that nothing happened?
00:42:23Well, that is, you see, well, nothing of any consequence, if you get what I mean.
00:42:41Oh, yes, yes, I get what you mean.
00:42:44So I've no doubt does his lordship.
00:42:45I'm afraid I should prefer an explanation.
00:42:48Any explanation, Mrs. Johnson?
00:42:51Can you explain to his lordship what you mean?
00:42:56We have ample opportunities in this court for learning what women mean,
00:43:00or what they mean they mean, if in these days they mean anything at all.
00:43:05Silence in court.
00:43:06My lord, there is one very simple explanation of this case.
00:43:10Mrs. Johnson is a woman.
00:43:15I need scat to remind your lordship that woman has a religion of her own,
00:43:19the ancient creed of womanhood.
00:43:22It contains only one article of faith,
00:43:24but every woman sincerely and steadfastly believes in it,
00:43:28and that is that she is the unique and perfect achievement of the human species,
00:43:32a being especially evolved to be above criticism
00:43:35beyond reproach and outside the law.
00:43:40Man, in his folly and kindness,
00:43:41has been bamboozled into accepting woman as a rational being
00:43:44and has granted her emancipation on that assumption.
00:43:46What is his reward?
00:43:47Modern woman has disowned womanhood,
00:43:49but refuses man's obligations.
00:43:52She demands freedom, but won't accept responsibility.
00:43:55She insists upon time to develop her personality,
00:43:58and she spends it in cogitating on which part of her body to paint next.
00:44:01By independence, she means idleness.
00:44:06By equality, she means carrying on like Catherine the Great.
00:44:10Carry on like who, Mr. Logan?
00:44:13Catherine the Great, my lord.
00:44:15Oh, carry on like Catherine the Great.
00:44:18Oh, thank you.
00:44:20By companionship with man,
00:44:21she means that he should wait upon her hand and foot.
00:44:24Modern woman has no loyalty, decency or justice,
00:44:27no endurance, reticence or self-control,
00:44:30no affection, fine feelings or mercy.
00:44:32In short, she is unprincipled, relentless at exacting,
00:44:35idle, unproductive and tedious,
00:44:37unimaginative, humorless and vain,
00:44:38vindictive, undignified and weak,
00:44:40and as soon a man takes out his whip again,
00:44:41the better for sanity and progress.
00:44:42My lord, that is the explanation of Mrs. Johnson,
00:44:44and that is the explanation of this case.
00:44:46You may stand down.
00:44:47I tell you some as you mustn't be afraid of Mr. Logan.
00:45:02He'll ask you some questions.
00:45:03You must reply to them truthfully.
00:45:05I know, but whatever Lady Mere thinks of...
00:45:07Whatever Lady Mere thinks, no harm will come to you.
00:45:12Lord Mere's here.
00:45:14He's got his solicitor with him,
00:45:15and the principal witness, Saunders, the maid.
00:45:17But I can't let her see me.
00:45:18She was at the hotel.
00:45:19Well, you're going to be caught sometime.
00:45:20It may as well be now.
00:45:20Oh, no, no, my darling.
00:45:21I heard his voice.
00:45:22We'll go right here.
00:45:23Ah, Logan, I thought I heard your voice.
00:45:24Now, this is hall prior, my solicitor.
00:45:26You know each other, don't you?
00:45:27Good morning, Logan.
00:45:28And this is Saunders that I told you.
00:45:29Bye.
00:45:30How do you do?
00:45:30Please sit there.
00:45:31Have you any further doubts about my case?
00:45:33Saunders will dispel.
00:45:35Saunders, you saw the man, didn't you?
00:45:37I did, my lord.
00:45:38And you've never seen him before?
00:45:40Well, I'm not sure, my lord.
00:45:42You're not sure?
00:45:43You can't have seen it very clearly.
00:45:44I didn't have my glasses on, sir.
00:45:46Ah, then you wouldn't be able to recognize him, would you?
00:45:48Oh, I didn't say that, sir.
00:45:49I didn't say I wouldn't recognize him.
00:45:51I said I didn't recognize him.
00:45:54She's very intelligent, old boy.
00:45:56Now, Saunders, just tell Mr. Logan what you saw.
00:45:58Describe the man.
00:45:59Oh, well, my lord, I don't know that I could describe him.
00:46:03Ah, you may try.
00:46:05Well, um, well, I don't quite know what to say.
00:46:07He was just an ordinary, commonplace sort of man.
00:46:10Describe the man.
00:46:11Details, details, woman.
00:46:12No, no, no, don't be impatient.
00:46:13Give the poor girl a chance now, sir, Saunders.
00:46:15Just you don't be afraid.
00:46:17Just tell Mr. Logan exactly.
00:46:18Was he, was he tall or short?
00:46:20Oh, he was, uh, just about ordinary heights.
00:46:24Oh, was he dark, fair, or ginger?
00:46:27Well, he was what you might call medium.
00:46:29Was he young, old?
00:46:31Well, he was what you might call, um, medium.
00:46:34Medium, that's right, sir.
00:46:35Yes, was he clean-shaven?
00:46:37Well, uh...
00:46:39Had he got a beard?
00:46:40Oh, no, my lord, no.
00:46:42No, I'm quite positive about that.
00:46:43He hadn't got a beard.
00:46:45He might have had a small moustache, though.
00:46:47Ah, he had a moustache.
00:46:48No, no, he didn't.
00:46:50Well, at any event, you're quite sure that you've never seen him before or since?
00:46:54Oh, quite, quite.
00:46:54What is it, slave?
00:46:56The, uh, the lady is here, sir.
00:46:58What, what lady?
00:47:00The lady in the case.
00:47:02The lady in the case.
00:47:04Uh, uh, thank you.
00:47:05Excuse me.
00:47:10What have you...
00:47:12What have you come here for?
00:47:16Sort of turned these.
00:47:17Your pajamas.
00:47:21Anything else?
00:47:22Why, what's happened to you?
00:47:25You're not nearly as sweet as you were at breakfast.
00:47:27I'll tell you what's happened.
00:47:29Your husband's in there.
00:47:32Who?
00:47:34Oh, I don't blame you at all for being so confused.
00:47:37After all the husbands you have to look back on.
00:47:39But this isn't the horse trainer, or the brandy dealer, or the wrestler.
00:47:42This happens to be your latest, Lord Mere.
00:47:44Lord Mere?
00:47:45Yes, that's the one.
00:47:47And, uh, who told you he was my husband?
00:47:49He did.
00:47:49He told me everything.
00:47:51And he'll be just as unpleasantly surprised as I was to learn how very much he does know.
00:47:54He knows all about the Royal Parks Hotel, and the costume.
00:47:58But, uh, what does he want of you?
00:48:00Divorce.
00:48:01Divorce.
00:48:02Divorce.
00:48:03Oh.
00:48:05Lord Mere wants a divorce.
00:48:06That's very interesting.
00:48:07Yes, isn't it?
00:48:08And you're going to help him get it, I hope.
00:48:11Help him to divorce you when I'm the correspondent?
00:48:14Oh, yes, I can understand you're being so callous with all your experience,
00:48:18but let me tell you it'll mean ruin to me.
00:48:19Ruin!
00:48:21Ah, I can just imagine what Lord Steele would say about it.
00:48:24Lord Steele?
00:48:26Yes, all the judges I have to face, he's the nastiest.
00:48:29And rejoice in my disgrace.
00:48:33But, um, if Lord Mere gets what he wants, then I'll be free.
00:48:38You and I could, so to speak, get together.
00:48:42You'd like that, wouldn't you?
00:48:44At the expense of my career?
00:48:46Tch, you flatter yourself.
00:48:48Oh.
00:48:49I'm sorry.
00:48:51I thought you were beginning to be rather fond of me.
00:48:53I know, um, I know I couldn't help liken you,
00:48:57even though you were rather unpleasant at first.
00:49:00But I suppose there's nothing left for me
00:49:03but to take my medicine.
00:49:09And go.
00:49:13I can certainly understand how you would trap all those men.
00:49:18Oh, what men?
00:49:19Oh, Lord Steele.
00:49:20Oh, Lord Steele.
00:49:20And the Baron de Brissac.
00:49:23And Wild Man, somebody or other.
00:49:25Oh.
00:49:26Oh, those.
00:49:28Yeah, those.
00:49:30And then, poor Lord Mere.
00:49:34Now me.
00:49:38You?
00:49:38Yes.
00:49:40I shouldn't admit it.
00:49:44I love you.
00:49:47Even now, now that I know the horrible truth,
00:49:50I'm wild about you.
00:49:53I want to take you in my arms.
00:49:56Then why don't you?
00:49:58I don't know.
00:49:59What am I doing standing here kissing you?
00:50:11I'm doing it very well, if I may say so.
00:50:13Well, your husband is in there,
00:50:14and his solicitor,
00:50:15and Saunders,
00:50:16who saw us both.
00:50:17Wait here.
00:50:23Now think, Saunders.
00:50:24Think, you know, just think.
00:50:25Don't be a fool, Saunders.
00:50:26Oh, I am thinking, sir.
00:50:28I really am.
00:50:29I can't go on to see.
00:50:30Sit down.
00:50:30I can't think of something.
00:50:32Now.
00:50:34Now, where were we?
00:50:36Oh, yes.
00:50:36The man from the Royal Park Hotel.
00:50:39You say you wouldn't recognize this man's face at all?
00:50:41No, sir, no.
00:50:42But I think I know his walk, sir.
00:50:45Yes, but you...
00:50:47You've never seen him before or since?
00:50:49No, sir, no.
00:50:50But I've known all the other gentlemen that we had
00:50:51since we got our first divorce in Reno.
00:50:53Saunders has been the faithful maid of my wife
00:50:55ever since her first marriage, haven't you, Saunders?
00:50:56Yes, my lord.
00:50:57Five years.
00:50:58Five years.
00:50:59You've established a world's record, Saunders.
00:51:01Now, then, after the divorce in Reno
00:51:02came the marriage with the Baron de Brissac.
00:51:04No, sir, no.
00:51:05After Mr. Kavanagh came Mr. Miller.
00:51:07Mr. Miller?
00:51:08Yeah, unofficial, sir.
00:51:10Unofficial?
00:51:11Innocent friendship.
00:51:12Well, uh...
00:51:14Yes, yes.
00:51:14Well, I don't think there are all these details in this.
00:51:16I'm very sorry, Lord, ma'am,
00:51:17but if you want me to handle this case,
00:51:18I must hear every detail.
00:51:20Yes, you only do yourself harm
00:51:21if you hide anything from your doctor or your lawyer.
00:51:24Right.
00:51:25Right.
00:51:25Yes.
00:51:27Now, then, after Mr. Miller.
00:51:28Uh, Mr. Ben Hood.
00:51:30Unofficial.
00:51:31Unofficial.
00:51:32After Mr. Ben Hood.
00:51:34Baron de Brissac.
00:51:35How long till the divorce?
00:51:37Uh, 14 months, sir.
00:51:3814 months.
00:51:39And after the Baron de Brissac?
00:51:40Unofficially, sir, Mr. Miller.
00:51:42Mr. Miller came after Mr. Kavanagh.
00:51:44No, sir, no.
00:51:45That was Mr. Miller the first, sir.
00:51:47This is Mr. Miller the second, sir.
00:51:49Oh.
00:51:49Is there a Mr. Miller the first?
00:51:51No, sir, no.
00:51:52Only Senor Mendoza from the Argentine
00:51:54and then Mr. Lord de Dale
00:51:56and then his lordship, sir.
00:51:59Plain sailing.
00:52:00Well, Logan, if you've got all you want.
00:52:02Yeah.
00:52:02Will you want to take my case?
00:52:04Yes, I will.
00:52:05My friend Holfry will prepare it for me
00:52:07and I will get your divorce for you.
00:52:09Good lad.
00:52:10Now, come along.
00:52:12Is you, you're sure you're not worried
00:52:14about us not knowing the man
00:52:15at the Royal Parks Hotel?
00:52:16I know the man at the Royal Parks Hotel.
00:52:19What?
00:52:20That is, I know the kind of fellow
00:52:21he must have been.
00:52:22After Mr. Miller the first
00:52:23and Mr. Miller the second.
00:52:24And Senor Mendoza from the Argentine.
00:52:26He looks like being a fourth fool.
00:52:28Good afternoon.
00:52:29What is she?
00:52:43Who, the miracle?
00:52:44She's gone.
00:52:45Oh, I say, I had no idea
00:52:47you permeated your pajamas
00:52:48with such a delightful perfume.
00:52:50Get out.
00:52:52Anything else?
00:52:53No.
00:52:55I do beg of you not to ask me one thing.
00:52:58What's that?
00:52:58Don't ask me to believe
00:53:00that nothing happened.
00:53:01Let me go.
00:53:02Oh, my God.
00:53:32I've decided to take on the case.
00:53:57You've decided to pay a scammer?
00:53:58Yes.
00:53:59Good.
00:53:59Yes.
00:54:00And the reason for the sudden courage is because someone is a short-sighted and you think you're safe?
00:54:05One's never safe in a case like this.
00:54:06And why take it off?
00:54:07Because I hope that you will marry me when you are free.
00:54:11William?
00:54:24William?
00:54:24William, why don't you answer?
00:54:32Sure did that thought put someone on the back of your mind when you came to see me in my office?
00:54:37It might have been.
00:54:50But then I didn't like you in your office.
00:54:52I much preferred you in your bedroom.
00:54:54Our bedroom.
00:54:57My bedroom.
00:54:58Surely that's the proper place to judge your future husband.
00:55:01Aren't you frightened any more of the hectic years of my past?
00:55:05I want to talk to you.
00:55:06Let's dance.
00:55:07You look so incredibly young.
00:55:17As a matter of fact, I don't feel old at all.
00:55:21Sometimes when you smile at me, I feel that you're as guileless and innocent as a child.
00:55:26That's why I smile at you.
00:55:29It seems incredible that you should have been married four times in five years.
00:55:32Why did you divorce Kavanaugh?
00:55:36Oh, Kavanaugh.
00:55:38Oh, he became a bore.
00:55:39The Baron de Brissac?
00:55:41He became a bore, too.
00:55:43And, and, uh, Lauderdale?
00:55:45Oh, he was the most awful bore of the life.
00:55:47I'd much rather be married to a group than a bore.
00:55:50Look, I've not become a bore yet.
00:55:52Oh, no.
00:55:53I find you very interesting.
00:55:54Very, very amusing.
00:57:04Do you love me?
00:57:06I like you.
00:57:09Is that all?
00:57:11I'm, I'm very fond of you.
00:57:14That's not enough.
00:57:17I might be interested in you.
00:57:19That's still not enough.
00:57:22Please be frank with me.
00:57:24I thought that the greatest virtue of the modern woman was that absolute frankness.
00:57:29But haven't I been frank with you?
00:57:31Haven't I told you all about, um, Brissac and Kavanaugh and Lauderdale?
00:57:37Oh, what do you want?
00:57:40Mm-hmm.
00:57:45Now, what do you want?
00:57:47Now, what do you want to do?
00:58:04Miller.
00:58:06Miller? What about Miller?
00:58:08Yes, what about Miller?
00:58:10Oh, Miller. An episode.
00:58:14And Miller the second?
00:58:16Another episode, I suppose.
00:58:18Of course.
00:58:20Four marriages in five years and two episodes.
00:58:24You don't seem to appreciate my frankness.
00:58:26I think I'll go home.
00:58:28Oh, no, please. Really, I do appreciate your frankness.
00:58:30And I care so much that I can understand how it happened.
00:58:34Can you really?
00:58:35Yes, of course.
00:58:37It's perfectly simple.
00:58:38You were poor before your first marriage.
00:58:40He offered you everything that made life worth living.
00:58:42How are you to know that the one essential thing was missing?
00:58:44How should you?
00:58:46Of course, the marriage failed.
00:58:48But a woman like you, a woman with ideals, is just like a man.
00:58:50She has to go on searching until she finds the right man.
00:58:52The real man.
00:58:54The one man in the world for her.
00:58:56You?
00:58:57I hope so.
00:58:58I'm sure of it.
00:59:00Aren't you?
00:59:02One can never be sure of anything but the past like mine.
00:59:06Oh, but, my darling, when a woman is in love, she has no past.
00:59:09She's reborn.
00:59:10She's an innocent girl again.
00:59:12Don't you see, my darling?
00:59:13It's perfectly simple.
00:59:14That if only you could...
00:59:16Go!
00:59:17What is it?
00:59:18Your husband.
00:59:21Don't look.
00:59:22Where?
00:59:23Over there, in the corner.
00:59:29Coward.
00:59:30I'm not.
00:59:31I just don't want a public brawl, that's all.
00:59:32Very well.
00:59:33Let's go.
00:59:34Not that way.
00:59:37The usual magnum for two.
00:59:38The usual magnum for one.
00:59:40Taxi!
00:59:48I'll take you home.
00:59:49No, no, that wouldn't do, thank you.
00:59:50I'll go home alone.
00:59:51Good night.
00:59:52Grosvenor Square, please.
00:59:53Yes, but what number, Grosvenor Square?
00:59:55I'm not telling you.
00:59:56But how shall I...
00:59:57When shall I see you?
00:59:58Thursday afternoon.
00:59:59Your office, Steve!
01:00:10Hello, Grandpa.
01:00:11Sorry, I'm late.
01:00:12Not at all.
01:00:13Proposals take some time.
01:00:14How did you know?
01:00:15Little girls having a special glitter in their eyes after a proposal. Even today.
01:00:28You're a wise old man.
01:00:31Did you tell that jackass the truth about yourself?
01:00:34No, and he's not a jackass.
01:00:36Do you still think you're a cheap woman?
01:00:38He's a jackass.
01:00:39He thinks I'm the wickedest woman in the whole world.
01:00:42He thinks I've had four husbands and several...
01:00:44Did you tell him that you had four husbands and several...
01:00:47No!
01:00:48He told me.
01:00:49You know Lady Muir?
01:00:50Mm-hmm.
01:00:51Well, she was at the ball of the Royal Park Hotel, and she had a winterhalter costume too.
01:00:55And some adventurer.
01:00:56Two?
01:00:57And Lord Muir's divorcing her, and Logan thinks I'm she.
01:01:01Thinks that you were Lady Muir?
01:01:04Yes, but he's very sympathetic and very understanding.
01:01:07He sees very clearly that my unfortunate past was one long search for the right man.
01:01:13Himself?
01:01:14Yes.
01:01:15And he also says that a woman is chased and reborn again when she's in love.
01:01:20Mm-hmm.
01:01:21I don't like the sound of that.
01:01:23He may get a shock when he discovers the truth.
01:01:26But aren't you a little cynical, Grandpa?
01:01:29I don't think so.
01:01:31And every day I learn things about which even the cleverest grandchildren know nothing at all.
01:01:38But you don't mean that he might prefer a bad woman to, um...
01:01:41Very often.
01:01:42And so do you.
01:01:44Certainly.
01:01:45What made you play the woman with the past?
01:01:48Because you felt you could wear your imaginary adventures like an alluring costume, didn't you?
01:01:55Yes, and apparently with great success.
01:01:59The danger is that when the costume falls off, the young men may look at you and wonder what on earth he saw in such an innocent little slip of a girl.
01:02:10Grandad, what shall I do?
01:02:13I love the brute so much.
01:02:22Paul Fryer telephoned to ask whether you really agree that the mere case brief should be prepared on the basis of the correspondent is unknown.
01:02:28I agree.
01:02:29But you know perfectly well that he's not unknown.
01:02:31It'll be disastrous for you if it comes out in court who the correspondent really is.
01:02:35I don't care.
01:02:40I'll get Lady Mere her divorce if I have to close up this shop.
01:02:45There's your wife before he leaves the house.
01:02:48Ah, there you are.
01:02:50How are you, old boy?
01:02:51I hope you're terribly well.
01:02:53Yes, I am terribly well.
01:02:54Yes, so am I.
01:02:55Terribly well?
01:02:56Yes.
01:02:57Terribly well.
01:02:58Why, what's happened?
01:02:59I met her.
01:03:00Boom!
01:03:01My wife.
01:03:04She's superb.
01:03:05And Saunders is an idiot.
01:03:07And I'm a fool.
01:03:08The man in her room at the Royal Parks Hotel was the manager of the hotel.
01:03:11You were the only one that was right.
01:03:12You gave it me at first.
01:03:13I owe my happiness entirely to you.
01:03:15She owes her happiness entirely to you.
01:03:17It's a new honeymoon for us.
01:03:19Thank you, old boy.
01:03:21By the way, I'm sorry to have troubled you in vain.
01:03:24No, no.
01:03:25Yes, yes, but I know how it is.
01:03:26But I said to my dear wife, I said, that fellow Logan's the most awfully decent chap in the world.
01:03:31At first he refused our case.
01:03:32He refused a fat case sooner than spoil our happiness.
01:03:35Goodbye.
01:03:36Goodbye.
01:03:37And what did she say?
01:03:38She said you were the most awfully decent fellow in the world.
01:03:41And so you are.
01:03:48Will you give her a message?
01:03:49Yes.
01:03:50And you tell her from me that I think she's the most awfully clever woman in the world.
01:04:06No.
01:04:20No.
01:04:23Oh, my God.
01:04:53You can't open the door with your umbrella. Where's your key?
01:05:10Why'd you have to come and open the door?
01:05:12Where's the butler?
01:05:13He's gone.
01:05:14And Saunders?
01:05:14She's gone, too.
01:05:16And Coke?
01:05:17I fired them all. I won't have paid enemies in my own house.
01:05:23It was the manager.
01:05:37What? Where? When?
01:05:38In your room at the Royal Parks Hotel. It was the hotel manager.
01:05:41It was not.
01:05:42You say it was not. Then who was it?
01:05:43Oh, it was John, George, Ingleby, Thomas, a president, prime minister, and a baritone.
01:05:49You're just trying to confuse me.
01:05:51What do you want? A divorce?
01:05:52All right. You can have it. Now get out of here.
01:05:55Get out of here. Go and see your lawyer.
01:05:57See him?
01:05:57Go and see him again.
01:05:58No, darling.
01:05:58No, darling.
01:05:59Get out of here.
01:06:02No, my son.
01:06:03Oh, my son.
01:06:05Oh, my son.
01:06:06Oh, my son.
01:06:08Oh, my son.
01:06:09Oh, my son.
01:06:10Oh, my son.
01:06:11Oh, my son.
01:06:12Oh, my son.
01:06:13Oh, my son.
01:06:14Oh, my son.
01:06:15Oh, my son.
01:06:16Oh, my son.
01:06:23Evening, Warren.
01:06:25Good evening.
01:06:28Good evening, Mayor.
01:06:30Your wife's the most awfully clever woman in the world.
01:06:46What does he mean, my wife, as the most awfully clever woman in the world?
01:06:56Ah.
01:07:00Good. How much is that?
01:07:02Eight and ninepence, my lord.
01:07:04What, eight and ninepence for a whisky and soda?
01:07:06That's five you've had, sir. Four doubles already in this one, sir.
01:07:08There you are.
01:07:10Thank you, my lord.
01:07:12What's your opinion of women, Peters?
01:07:16Well, my lord, they have their uses, as we know.
01:07:18But as for consorting with them, as you might say, I've only dabbled in it.
01:07:21Well, you leave it at that. Women are a menace, a menace, Peters.
01:07:25What about Eden?
01:07:26What, the Foreign Secretary, sir?
01:07:28Oh, you fool. The Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve.
01:07:31You know the story?
01:07:32Yes, I've heard of it, sir. It's a bit before my time.
01:07:34Yes, but it's still going on.
01:07:36The woman leads the man up the garden path,
01:07:38and leaves him in the lurch for a snake in the grass at the Royal Parkes Hotel.
01:07:43I can't say I ever heard that bit, sir.
01:07:45Well, it's true.
01:07:46I can't do that sort of thing to me.
01:07:48I'm the last man to hang about where I'm not wanted.
01:07:51You know that, Peters.
01:07:52Yes, you lot.
01:07:53Well, good night, Peters.
01:07:54Well, good night, Peters.
01:07:55Good night, sir.
01:07:56Curse these cigars.
01:08:01Pickles.
01:08:08You know, Wes Pat.
01:08:31Nice to meet you.
01:08:34Hey, Hans.
01:08:37Hello? Yes, this is Logan. Must see you, old boy. Must see you, old boy. Matter of life and death.
01:09:04What? What? But it's three o'clock. I know, but I'm coming right around to see you, old boy. Life and death.
01:09:14Why did you say my wife was the most wonderfully clever woman in the world?
01:09:21Now, look here, it's three o'clock. Why did you say my wife was the most wonderfully clever woman in the world?
01:09:28Why did you say my wife was the most wonderfully clever woman in the world?
01:09:34Now, look here, it's three o'clock. Why did you say my wife was the most wonderfully clever woman in the world?
01:09:40Sometimes one just says things for something to say. No.
01:09:45Lawyer chaps make your masses of money because you don't say things for something to say. Why?
01:09:50Why did you say my wife was the most wonderfully clever woman in the world? Sit down.
01:10:00I thought your wife was very clever to make it up with you after the Royal Parts Hotel.
01:10:07Hmm. She's very clever. You're very clever. But I'm very clever, too. I wish I weren't.
01:10:15Mind what? Clever, subtle, clear-sighted. I should be a happier man.
01:10:20What's the trouble? She doesn't love me any more.
01:10:23What do you mean? I thought you said that you'd made it up with her.
01:10:26Yes, sir. I've got a sixth sense. Subtlety. Knowledge of women.
01:10:31She loves the man from the Royal Parts Hotel.
01:10:42Just a minute.
01:10:48I've got something very important to tell you.
01:10:56I am the man from the Royal Parts Hotel.
01:11:01You, but you can't be. You're a barrister.
01:11:04Your wife spent the night in one of my rooms.
01:11:07But don't dare to suspect her!
01:11:09Nothing happened.
01:11:11And why are you telling me this?
01:11:13Because I love her.
01:11:14And if you're going to divorce her, then I'm going to marry her.
01:11:18But she's going to marry you.
01:11:20I hope so.
01:11:21But she's in love with you.
01:11:23I think so.
01:11:26Won't Lemmitt jump sky high?
01:11:32Who?
01:11:33Lemmitt.
01:11:34Who's Lemmitt?
01:11:35Bounder, rotter, filthy with money.
01:11:37Well, what's he got to do with her?
01:11:38He's in love with her.
01:11:39But is she in love with him?
01:11:40Certainly not.
01:11:41If she's in love with you, how can she be in love with Lemmitt?
01:11:43She's not that sort of woman.
01:11:46Sit down.
01:11:51Have a drink.
01:11:52If I've got to divorce her, I prefer you to Lemmitt.
01:11:59You're a gentleman.
01:12:00Lemmitt is not.
01:12:01Lemmitt is not.
01:12:02Lemmitt is not.
01:12:03Lemmitt is not.
01:12:04I've told her, and I'll tell her.
01:12:06Don't you worry.
01:12:07I'll tell her.
01:12:09Lowlands a gentleman.
01:12:11Lemmitt is not.
01:12:13Is not.
01:12:32Who are you?
01:12:33I belong to this man.
01:12:36I belong to this man.
01:12:37I belong to this man.
01:12:49Get out.
01:12:50Darling, I'm wise and generous.
01:12:52You're drunk.
01:12:53I'm not, and you'll see it, because I've come to tell you this.
01:12:56Logan's a gentleman.
01:12:58The limit is not.
01:13:00Who is Logan?
01:13:01The lawyer's chapter.
01:13:03If you take him, he'll break my heart.
01:13:06I wish you happiness.
01:13:08Why should I take him?
01:13:10In love with him.
01:13:11I'm in love with him.
01:13:12Who told you that?
01:13:14The lawyer himself.
01:13:15Gentlemen.
01:13:16He'll break my heart.
01:13:19I wish you happiness.
01:13:21Oh, I see.
01:13:24So you're willing to divorce me so somebody by the name of Logan can marry me.
01:13:29Is that it?
01:13:30You break my heart, but I wish you happiness.
01:13:33Will you please get out of here?
01:13:34Go to your club and go to bed.
01:13:38I wish you happiness.
01:13:40Shhh!
01:13:58Mr Logan.
01:13:59Uh-huh.
01:14:08Molyneux? Uh-huh.
01:14:10Pecker? Uh-huh.
01:14:13Who do you wish to see?
01:14:16Mr. Logan, please.
01:14:17Well, what names, please?
01:14:19Lady Mayor.
01:14:21Did you say Lady Mayor?
01:14:23Are you Lady Mayor?
01:14:25I am, but who are you?
01:14:27Oh.
01:14:29Oh, Lady Mayor, come with me, please.
01:14:35Well, where is the matter?
01:14:36You come away from here and I'll tell you all about it.
01:14:38Well, who are you?
01:14:39Where have you went from here?
01:14:40The hairdressers.
01:14:41Who are they? Chevalier.
01:14:43Come along.
01:14:47Where is she?
01:14:49Well, they were here, sir.
01:14:51What do you mean, they? Where is she?
01:14:52She was too, sir.
01:14:54Now, you opened the door and she came in.
01:15:00They came in, sir.
01:15:02What did you ask?
01:15:03What name, madam?
01:15:05And what did she say?
01:15:07They said Lady Mayor.
01:15:08She?
01:15:09They?
01:15:10One lady said Lady Mayor.
01:15:12Two, sir.
01:15:13There were two ladies here?
01:15:15Two, sir.
01:15:15And two ladies said Lady Mayor.
01:15:16Two, sir.
01:15:17Where are they, then?
01:15:19Well, they just disappeared, sir.
01:15:22You better disappear, too.
01:15:24Go back to your father and tell him I've no use for a congenital idiot.
01:15:29Could have sworn there were two.
01:15:33So I went off to the divorce court to see Mr. Logan do his stuff.
01:15:36They tell me he's very clever.
01:15:37Clever.
01:15:38If you call clever bullying and brow-beating somebody who can't hit back.
01:15:42And he knows nothing at all about women.
01:15:44Do any of them?
01:15:45There was some wretched creature in the box called Mrs. Johnson or something
01:15:48and Logan was acting for her husband.
01:15:50And what do you think he said about women?
01:15:52Could have been anything.
01:15:53He said we were merciless, stupid, brainless and hopeless.
01:15:56But you know, he's not far wrong.
01:15:58Anything else?
01:15:59Yes.
01:16:00He said we'd be spent half our time wondering which part of our bodies to paint next.
01:16:03Oh.
01:16:04Well, my dear, now that is a lie.
01:16:14What do you think of it?
01:16:15I think it's, well...
01:16:16I wonder if Mr. Logan would approve.
01:16:18And if you ask me, I think that guy needs a lesson.
01:16:20He certainly does.
01:16:21And I'm going to give it to him.
01:16:22He's in a blue funk about that night in the Royal Fox Hotel.
01:16:25He thinks he's going to be sighted as Lady Mayor's correspondent.
01:16:28Say, that's very funny.
01:16:31I can hardly wait till we get home with our little worry boy about this.
01:16:34You know, he'll swallow his gamp teeth and everything.
01:16:36That's all.
01:16:37Good night.
01:16:38Good night.
01:16:39Good night.
01:16:40What's late?
01:16:41You're sure nobody's telephoned?
01:16:42I'm quite sure no lady telephoned.
01:16:44Good night.
01:16:45Good night.
01:16:46Good night.
01:16:47Good night.
01:17:07Good night.
01:17:08Good night, sir.
01:17:09Hello?
01:17:10Lady Mayor wants to speak to Mr. Logan, please.
01:17:12Hold on.
01:17:13Mr. Logan, sir.
01:17:14Lady Mayor.
01:17:15Where?
01:17:16On the telephone.
01:17:17Hello.
01:17:18Ask her, sir, if she was too.
01:17:19Good night.
01:17:20Hello.
01:17:21Oh.
01:17:22Is that you?
01:17:23Oh.
01:17:24Why didn't you come?
01:17:25Because I don't like your office.
01:17:26Where can I see you?
01:17:27Where?
01:17:28Well, let me see.
01:17:29Why don't you come to Mayor Hall for the weekend?
01:17:30Mayor Hall in Hampshire.
01:17:31You know it.
01:17:32Oh, yes, I know.
01:17:33I know.
01:17:34I know.
01:17:35I know.
01:17:36I know.
01:17:37I know.
01:17:38I know.
01:17:39I know.
01:17:40I know.
01:17:41I know.
01:17:42I know.
01:17:43I know.
01:17:44I know.
01:17:45I know.
01:17:46I know.
01:17:47I know.
01:17:48I know.
01:17:49I know.
01:17:50I know.
01:17:51I know.
01:17:52I know it.
01:17:53Oh, yes, I know.
01:17:54But do you think that would be right?
01:17:56Brightened again.
01:17:57Goodbye.
01:17:58No.
01:17:59Wait.
01:18:00Wait.
01:18:01But if you don't want to see me.
01:18:02Well, of course I want to see you.
01:18:04But has Lord Mayor not told you?
01:18:07Lord Mayor has told me everything.
01:18:09And do you think that his place would be the right place?
01:18:13The only place.
01:18:14But of course if you don't want to come.
01:18:16But of course I want to see you.
01:18:17When?
01:18:18Saturday.
01:18:19Right.
01:18:20Saturday evening.
01:18:22All right.
01:18:23Good night.
01:18:50Well, Miss Leslie, feeling fit to face your fences?
01:18:54Yes, I think so, but not too big.
01:18:55Nothing is too big for that, Mayor.
01:18:57If you want a pilot, keep your eye on my wife.
01:18:59Well, Miss Leslie, feeling fit to face your fences?
01:19:11Yes, I think so, if they're not too big.
01:19:13Nothing's too big for that, Mayor.
01:19:15If you want a pilot, keep your eye on my wife.
01:19:17She's good, is she?
01:19:17Miss Hems, I ever saw, heart like a lion.
01:19:21Who's the man she's talking to?
01:19:24By cat, it's that cat limit.
01:19:28Why cat?
01:19:29It's a awful fellow, shoots foxes all the summer, rides over hand half the winter.
01:19:34And what does he do with his spare time?
01:19:35Makes up to other fellow's wives, but if he thinks he's got a chance with Claire, he's barking up the wrong tree.
01:19:42I'll meet you at the Barclay at three on Thursday.
01:19:45By the way, what time are you expecting your friend Logan?
01:19:48Oh, I should think around tea time. He's driving down.
01:19:50Ah, well, we'll stay off. Right.
01:19:52Oh, what time is that?
01:20:01Oh, yeah.
01:20:10Oh, yeah.
01:20:13Hello!
01:20:14Hello!
01:20:15I didn't expect you so early.
01:20:16Oh, he's coming to see you.
01:20:17Hello, Logan.
01:20:18I'm glad to see you.
01:20:19Come on, my dear.
01:20:20She's showing us all the way.
01:20:21All right.
01:20:23I see you two haven't made it up again, have you?
01:20:24I don't know what you mean by made it up, but he's been very sweet to me.
01:20:25Oh, well, that's up a bit.
01:20:26Settle the block.
01:20:27Well, I'm not coming.
01:20:28You must.
01:20:29You've accepted it.
01:20:30I can't tell you.
01:20:31I can't help it.
01:20:32It's in the fellow's house.
01:20:33It's all wrong.
01:20:34Very well then, if you don't want to see me.
01:20:35No, I do.
01:20:36But look here.
01:20:37Are you going to marry me?
01:20:38Are you not?
01:20:39I'll tell you tonight.
01:20:40Yeah, but look here.
01:20:41Tonight.
01:20:42Hey.
01:20:43Oh.
01:20:44Oh.
01:20:45Oh.
01:20:46Oh.
01:20:47Oh.
01:20:48Oh.
01:20:49Oh.
01:20:50Oh.
01:20:51Oh.
01:20:52Oh.
01:20:53Oh.
01:20:54Oh.
01:20:55Oh.
01:20:56Oh.
01:20:57Oh.
01:20:58Oh.
01:20:59Oh.
01:21:00Oh.
01:21:01Oh.
01:21:06Well, I wish your Mr. Logan would come down.
01:21:08The suspense is killing me.
01:21:10Me too.
01:21:11I bet he feels an awful ass when he finds out who's which.
01:21:13What?
01:21:14Then don't make it worse by laughing at him.
01:21:16Please sit here.
01:21:17Mm-hmm.
01:21:18And be quiet, will you?
01:21:19Oh.
01:21:20Oh, and Clare.
01:21:21Oh, you sit, um...
01:21:22You sit there, will you please?
01:21:24Mm-hmm.
01:21:25And Grandpa, um...
01:21:26Oh, Grandpa, you're fine.
01:21:27There you are.
01:21:28And, oh, and Clare, when he comes, will you please say, um...
01:21:30You know Miss Leslie's team?
01:21:31Mm-hmm.
01:21:32And I'll stand, um...
01:21:33Here.
01:21:34No.
01:21:35Better go, then.
01:21:36Stand here.
01:21:37Ah!
01:21:38Shhh!
01:21:39Be quiet!
01:21:40Mr. Logan.
01:21:41Mr. Logan.
01:21:42It's nice of you to come down at such short notice.
01:21:43Do you know Lord Steele?
01:21:44Yes, of course I do.
01:21:45And, uh...
01:21:46Of course you know Warren.
01:21:47Yes, I do.
01:21:48And this is Miss Steele.
01:21:49Miss...
01:21:50Miss Leslie Steele.
01:21:51Ha!
01:21:52Ha!
01:21:53Ha!
01:21:54Ha!
01:21:55Ha!
01:21:56Ha!
01:21:57Ha!
01:21:58Ha!
01:21:59Ha!
01:22:00Ha!
01:22:01Ho!
01:22:02Ha!
01:22:03Ha!
01:22:04Ha!
01:22:12Ha!
01:22:13Ha!
01:22:14Ha!
01:22:15Ha!
01:22:16Ha!
01:22:17No, I don't know Miss Thiel.
01:22:36And I don't want to know Miss Thiel.
01:22:38I think that Miss Thiel is a very unpleasant, dishonest young woman.
01:22:42I say, old boy, don't lose your sins.
01:22:43Why, it's only a bit of fun.
01:22:44Well, you go out having your bit of fun.
01:22:45You have your bit of fun with Limit and you have your bit of fun with the hotel manager.
01:22:50Miss Thiel can have her bit of fun with the next poor fool that falls in love with her.
01:22:54In fact, you're a damn funny lot, couldn't I?
01:22:57Well, what do you think of that?
01:22:59Why, Jo, what?
01:23:00Huh?
01:23:02Oh, Grandpa, did you hear what he said?
01:23:05Yes, darling. Good, wasn't it?
01:23:07Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:23:11Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:23:12Bravo, my boy! Fifty years ago, I didn't understand!
01:23:36And I think he's right. You're not going to let him get away with it, are you?
01:23:43No, I'm not. Up to now, he's been after me. Now I'm going after him.
01:23:48I love boy.
01:23:53He left no address. None.
01:23:55Didn't he say when he was coming back? Yes, never.
01:23:58What about his work? Chuck did. And he had the case of a lifetime coming on next week.
01:24:02What's that? The Strange Way's divorce. Four correspondents.
01:24:06Been the making of him. But isn't there anything to be done?
01:24:09Not unless you stop the train.
01:24:11What train? The boat train at Victoria.
01:24:13What time? Eleven o'clock.
01:24:16Here, hey, whoa!
01:24:32No! Go away!
01:24:34Answer the train for all the busy things you said. Said?
01:24:36You know you didn't mean them, did you? Did you?
01:24:38Merle, why don't you answer?
01:24:53Aren't you ashamed of yourself? Go on. Say you're sorry.
01:24:59Oh, my poor darling. Go on. Oh, my darling.
01:25:16Feel better now?
01:25:17Mm-hmm.
01:25:18Nasty pain all gone? Mm-hmm.
01:25:20I've chosen the sweetest house.
01:25:26Pretty sure of me, aren't you?
01:25:30Well, you were so desperately in love with me.
01:25:33Do I have any say in the matter?
01:25:34Yes. You can ask me to marry you, if you like.
01:25:37Well, will you?
01:25:40I might.
01:25:43Why? We'll be married in Paris at once.
01:25:48And we'll honeymoon on the Riviera for six weeks.
01:25:51No. Have you forgotten the Strangeways case?
01:25:53Chance of a lifetime.
01:25:54Be the making of you. Four correspondence.
01:25:56We'll wire the office right away that we'll take the case.
01:25:59We'll wire the office right away that we're on our honeymoon.
01:26:01Oh, no. Oh, yes. Oh, no. Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
01:26:05My lord, there is one very simple explanation of this case.
01:26:09My client, Mrs. Strangeways, is a woman.
01:26:13That unique and perfect achievement of the human species,
01:26:16especially evolved for the comfort and solace of man.
01:26:19A tender, delicate organism put into this rough world
01:26:22to make life a little brighter and a little happier
01:26:26by her beauty and by her tenderness,
01:26:28and, I say it advisedly, by her purity.
01:26:31My lord, I admit that the allegation that she was found locked in the bathroom
01:26:34with two of the correspondents points to a certain lack of discretion on her part,
01:26:37but against that, my lord, we have her positive assurance that nothing happened.
01:26:41My lord, if we refuse to accept this statement,
01:26:44I submit that we strike a blow at the very foundation
01:26:47of the most sublime, the most idyllic, and the most delightful institution
01:26:51in the whole fabric of our civilization, the state of marriage.
01:26:59In my view, my lord, Mrs. Strangeways is guilty on one count
01:27:03and upon one count alone.
01:27:05She is guilty of being a woman.
01:27:08My lord, that is the explanation of Mrs. Logan.
01:27:10Mrs. Strangeways.
01:27:11And that is the explanation of this case.
01:27:13You may stand down.
