00:39The first time you're able to get out, you have to meet him.
00:45All I could say was hello.
01:00Well, the show's over. The boy got the girl. Shall we go?
01:06It seems terrible taking you home with everybody going out.
01:18It seems terrible taking you home with everybody going out. I'm going to ask you once more. Why don't you let me help you?
01:24And I'm going to tell you once more. If I let you finance my getting well, he wouldn't like it. If he wouldn't like it, I wouldn't like it. And if you did get me well when I went to him, you wouldn't like it.
01:33Well, then certainly he ought to know.
01:35No. Because if he found out he'd want to do something about it. And then if I didn't get well, well, he wouldn't like it. And I wouldn't like it. And if you did get me well when I went to him, you wouldn't like it.
01:47It would be awful. No. Unless I can walk to him one day. And when I say walk, I mean run. He'll never know. But I've got my job now and I'm on a budget and everything works out all right. And I'm a good little girl. Maybe I'll get what I want next Christmas.
02:03Well, thank you, Ray. Good night. Are you sure you don't want to come here this evening? The evening is so young and everything. No, I think I'll turn in. Some at a time. Merry Christmas, everybody.
02:33Taking you to the theater wasn't a very good idea, was it, Michael?
02:36No.
02:40Merry Christmas, please.
02:41Merry Christmas, Michael.
03:03Merry Christmas, Michael.
03:10What's the matter, buddy? Feeling sorry for yourself?
03:16You don't know what troubles are.
03:26Look at me. I live at 186th Street and they won't let me on the subway.
03:33Oh, good morning. Good morning.
03:41Good morning.
03:42She's not feeling very well.
03:43Oh, that's too bad.
03:44But she wants to see you.
03:45Go on.
03:48Merry Christmas, Michael.
03:53Good morning.
03:54Good morning, Miss Kim.
03:56Hello.
03:57Hello.
03:59I've bad news for you.
04:01Doctor says I can't go.
04:02Look, Doctor, I could be back in a couple of hours.
04:07This is a Christmas benefit.
04:08It's our first public appearance.
04:10This is my team.
04:12She's our coach, Doc.
04:14Doctor.
04:18Doctor.
04:19If it was going to hurt her, you wouldn't want her to go, would you?
04:22No.
04:24You really don't need the piano.
04:27Come on, go through it once without me.
04:29The only place you might get stuck is right at the beginning.
04:32And Al wishes can sing an A in his sleep, can't you, Al?
04:34Sure.
04:35Come on, let's hear it.
04:40See?
04:41Now, ready.
04:42One, two.
04:48Where's Patsy Jane?
04:49She's got a sore throat and she won't be able to go on the stage.
04:53Come here, darling.
04:56Pretty new dress, too.
04:57Hello, Miss McKay.
05:01You really want to go on the stage?
05:03Well, then I tell you what you do.
05:04You go right along with the rest of them and you pretend to sing.
05:07You know, make-believe.
05:08Like this.
05:11They'll never know the difference.
05:13Thank you, Miss McKay.
05:15You're welcome.
05:16Now, come on, pitch pipe.
05:17Give.
05:17Give.
05:17One, two.
05:23Now, not too loud.
05:25There's a baby upstairs.
05:26One, two.
05:28Wishing will make it so Just keep on wishing and hell will go
05:44Dreamers tell us dreams come true
05:51It's no mistake
05:55Then wishes are the things we dream
06:01When we're awake
06:05The curtain of night will part If you are certain within your heart
06:22So if you wish long enough
06:27Wish long enough
06:29Wish long enough
06:30You will come to know
06:35Wish long enough
06:57Oh, that swell, that gain
07:00You see, you don't need me
07:02Now go on, go out there and fight for good old Washington Heights!
07:06Merry Christmas!
07:08Goodbye!
07:09Goodbye!
07:10Good luck!
07:11Goodbye!
07:12Merry Christmas!
07:13Thank you!
07:16Merry Christmas!
07:17Merry Christmas, Patty!
07:24Well, this isn't going to be much of a Christmas for you, is it?
07:29No, I guess not.
07:33Wait.
07:37Are you comfortable?
07:39Yes, I'm all right.
07:42If you want anything, you just call.
07:44I will.
07:48Michelle.
07:53Hello.
07:59How are you, Tim?
08:00Good to see you.
08:03Yes.
08:04It's good to see you, too.
08:13Feeling all right?
08:14Oh, yes, I'm fine.
08:15I'm just resting.
08:16I'm just resting.
08:21It's been a long time.
08:23Ah, yes.
08:24Yes, that's right.
08:26Good to see you.
08:28Yes, you said that.
08:31May I?
08:32Oh, if I sit down.
08:33Sure.
08:34I'll wait for a minute.
08:35I'll wait for a minute.
08:41You should not mind.
08:42I...
08:46I bet you're wondering how I got here.
08:47I was looking in the telephone book for a man named McBride when I saw the name of Terry Mackay.
08:56So I said to myself, could that be Terry Mackay, my old friend?
09:00Oh, and it was.
09:01Yes.
09:03Then I said to myself, I haven't been very nice to Miss Mackay.
09:07After all, I had an appointment with her one day at...
09:10And, uh, I didn't keep it.
09:28That wasn't a very nice way to treat an old friend, was it?
09:34No.
09:35No.
09:38So I said to myself, I must apologize.
09:42And here I am.
09:44That's sweet of you.
09:45Yes, I think so.
09:47I often wondered about you, how you were.
09:51Oh, you did? Really?
09:53Well, I often wondered about you, too.
09:57So...
09:59You didn't get angry because I wasn't there?
10:01What do you think?
10:05Oh, you must have been at first.
10:07Yes, I was.
10:09At first, I was furious.
10:12I said, he can't do a thing like this to me.
10:15Who does he think he is?
10:17And how long did you... I mean, did you wait long?
10:21Well, let's see, I... I waited until about...
10:26Midnight?
10:27Oh.
10:30And then what did you do?
10:34Well, then I was really mad.
10:36You can just imagine up there.
10:39In a thunderstorm?
10:42Yes.
10:44And then what did you say to yourself?
10:46Well, then I said, why don't you go home and get tight?
10:51Oh, you didn't do that.
10:54Didn't I?
10:56Maybe you took a little one.
10:59Every hour for about a month.
11:02Oh, can you blame me?
11:04I should say not.
11:05The least I could have done was to send you a note.
11:08Well, maybe when you thought about it, you didn't know where to reach me.
11:19But...
11:20You swore that if you ever saw me again, you'd ask.
11:25You didn't?
11:27No.
11:29No, I remembered. We said...
11:31If we could make it, we'd be there.
11:34And if one of us didn't show up, there must have been a darn good reason.
11:39But what, Vaisons?
11:41And the other one shouldn't ask questions.
11:43Asking questions is...
11:45Life must be bright.
11:47We must keep it beautiful and bubbling like pink champagne.
