00:01:36See you in the first doctor now, you'd better get dressed
00:01:38I'll be ready
00:01:39Well, you'd better be, it'll be terrible if we miss Jean
00:01:42Oh, Polaro, I'm dressed to go out right now
00:01:45The Flourish Shops, Mr. Hirsch
00:01:47Listen, Mr. Hirsch
00:01:49My girlfriend's fiancé sent us some more of those orchids, Mr. Hirsch
00:01:53Six of them
00:01:54Beauty
00:01:55Yes, but Mr. Hirsch, you paid us twice as much as that for six of them last week
00:02:02You mean not even stockbrokers aren't buying orchids anymore, Mr. Hirsch?
00:02:11All right, Mr. Hirsch
00:02:13Oh, no, I'll send them right down
00:02:14Hurry up, Shotzi
00:02:17I am hurrying
00:02:19Now listen, Pops, and I'll tell you
00:02:21I just took the money you gave me for the car
00:02:23And bought some more American tell-and-tell instead
00:02:25Yeah, you know, Pops
00:02:27A car goes out of style, but tell-and-tell goes on forever
00:02:30Oh, I didn't know you were in a shower
00:02:33Did you have a good time with Oscar and the medicine ball?
00:02:38Well, anyhow, Jean gets back today
00:02:40Yeah, Jean
00:02:41Yeah, I know you don't think she's in my class
00:02:44But you'll have to admit she's awful good company
00:02:46Yeah, besides, she's awful broke
00:02:49And you know what I think, Pops?
00:02:52I think her stocks went down
00:02:53And there she was in Paris
00:02:54And didn't know how to say sell short in French
00:02:56And anyhow
00:02:58Her fiancé's wife arrived
00:03:01And it seems that she's a very narrow-minded person
00:03:04And she bought Jean a ticket
00:03:05So Jean decided to come home
00:03:07Yeah, and she's on the island of France
00:03:09And ought to be in in about an hour
00:03:10Your bill, madame
00:03:22Bill?
00:03:25What's for?
00:03:26For the bear, madame
00:03:27$43
00:03:31$43
00:03:31It says $43
00:03:33You're trying to make me believe
00:03:37That I've drunk $43 worth of liquor
00:03:39Since I've been on this boat?
00:03:40Oh, no, madame
00:03:41These are only the drinks you haven't paid for yet
00:03:43Do you mean the drinks nobody else paid for?
00:03:46Well, yes, madame
00:03:47Yes, but I haven't paid for any drinks myself
00:03:49That was my point, madame
00:03:50Well, don't let it throw you
00:03:55This can be arranged
00:03:57I'll see you in the cabin over
00:04:02All right
00:04:03Thank you, sir
00:04:12Pardon me, but haven't I met you someplace before?
00:04:24Oh, that's possible
00:04:25I've been always bought for five days
00:04:27No, I don't mean that
00:04:27No, I've seen you somewhere before
00:04:29Was it the racist?

00:05:31Or is she really alone?
00:05:33And without a man?
00:05:33Why do you think she'd be afraid of catching cold?
00:05:36Hey, Dean!
00:05:37Hello!

00:06:52Well, I could do with some fun
00:06:54They kept all my clothes except what I got on what's in that little black bag? I sneaked out on him
00:06:59And all my braces except that when I peeked out on them too because I couldn't see let them keep the real one
00:07:04Yeah, there's nothing. I can call my own except my health any wonder. I wanted to see you know I know it's no wonder hey
00:07:10That's my goal phone
00:07:12What's your call? That's my call?
00:07:14I got a little go call. Have you two started scrapping already?
00:07:18Well now that we three are together we can put up our feet make a few plans plans what for for you
00:07:23We can lend you clothes and we can lend you money, huh?
00:07:27Well, that is some but the first thing to do is to put you back on the swim
00:07:31I'll tell you what I'll do Jean. I'll lend you my good luck bracelet that you've always wanted
00:07:35Oh, you can wear it and your luck changes and your luck will change too because I've had my bad dime strung on it
00:07:41You know my ten-cent piece with a hole in it. Oh, but for later
00:07:44I wouldn't want to take your bad dime. Why not my luck's all right. Oh, you're his fault
00:07:50Can't you keep anything why bother I can't do cool air tomorrow? I'll take it down to Collier's and have your bad dime sold off and put
00:07:57In a platinum chain with diamonds in it. Oh, that's certainly sweet of you Jean
00:08:01Not a bean in the world and talking about diamonds
00:08:06You know I don't believe any girl ever had any better friends than you two guys
00:08:08And I want you to know that you haven't got any better friends than I am. Oh, that's sweet of you to say that
00:08:13See yeah, that's sweet and as long as we three stick together. I don't care what happens
00:08:17I don't get you do either and we wouldn't have broken up only I had to go fall in love
00:08:22We're not gonna break up again. Not if I can help it because you know that I'm for you
00:08:26And I know that you're for me and there's no friends like old friends. It's the three of us against the men
00:08:36What are you gonna do?
00:08:39Don't you worry about little jeannie. She's gonna be all right
00:08:41Well, I'm just saying to myself this morning as I looked out of that old skyline
00:08:45Well, I said if the worst comes to the worst there's always pop
00:08:52While in life there's pop
00:08:54Pop?
00:08:56Sure, Pop
00:08:58Oh
00:09:00You remember Pop
00:09:02Oh sure we remember Pop
00:09:04Pops
00:09:06What's the matter?
00:09:08Pops isn't dead I hope
00:09:10No, Pops isn't dead
00:09:12Maybe I'll give Pops a ring and let him know I'm back
00:09:17Just to prepare him
00:09:20Oh no, Jean, no, I wouldn't do that. Not if I were you
00:09:22No, Jean, she's right. That isn't a thing to do at all
00:09:24Oh, why not?
00:09:26Hello
00:09:30That you pop
00:09:33Yeah, Jean's here
00:09:36Guess I better call you back
00:09:40Hey, what's Pop to you?
00:09:44Now isn't Pops the father to all of us?
00:09:46Sorry, what's Pop to you?
00:09:47Well, you wouldn't expect a nice girl like me to leave a kind old gentleman like Pop sitting alone in the Metropolitan Club without a friend to call his own
00:09:55You answer my question. What's Pop to you?
00:09:59Well, he's my fiancé
00:10:01Not that we're engaged or anything like that
00:10:04Well, you would fall in love and go away
00:10:07Well, this is a fine welcome home
00:10:10Losing the only man who was ever kind to me
00:10:13And promised to remember me in his will
00:10:15I never have any luck
00:10:18There's one thing certain though
00:10:20At Pop's age, you won't have him long
00:10:22Now we'll wish Pop no bad luck if you don't mind
00:10:24And now we'll let Paulette call up Day Emery and have him throw a party for you tonight
00:10:28And have him bring along some nice friend of his who's fun
00:10:30Who'd like to meet a nice girl who's fun too
00:10:32You don't mind doing that for Jean, do you, Paulette?
00:10:34Sure, I'll call him
00:10:36Give me Wickersham
00:10:40No, never mind
00:10:41Well, there's one thing that's got to be understood before Jean meets any friend of mine
00:10:47And that is she's got to lay off him
00:10:49Now why bring that up?
00:10:51Because you never lay off anybody who belongs to someone else
00:10:53Oh, is that so?
00:10:54You never want anyone else to have any fun
00:10:56Oh, is that so?
00:10:58So you don't meet any friend of mine until you sign a paper saying you've changed your habits
00:11:02I'll change any habits of mine that don't suit you the day you change your face for what I can stand
00:11:06You don't have to stand anything about me any more than I do about you, you poor blonde boy
00:11:10Don't you call me a blonde boy
00:11:12Scrapping both of you
00:11:13She can't help it if she's Italian
00:11:14Oh, dirty little
00:11:15Quiet Jean
00:11:16Who started it?
00:11:17Oh, I did, of course
00:11:18There, you see?
00:11:19Well, she may have started it, but you gave a good cause
00:11:21Oh, you always take her side
00:11:22I take the side of the party that's right and you know it
00:11:24Yeah?
00:11:25You two don't stop scrapping, I'm gonna send you both home
00:11:27They dignified
00:11:29Miss Big Mouth
00:11:30You've got a rat
00:11:32Oh!
00:11:33Oh!
00:11:34Oh!
00:11:35It's so much you did to her
00:11:36It's okay
00:11:37It's hers anyhow
00:11:38Well, that's got nothing to do with it
00:11:39Now get a tire of the towel and wipe that beer off
00:11:40Alright, now see if there's anything besides beer in this joint
00:11:42Yeah
00:11:43Oh, my goodness
00:11:44You ought to be ashamed of yourself fighting about a man you haven't even met yet
00:11:47How can we three stick together if you two are scrapping all the time?
00:11:50Oh, well, I always said she was on the level and more fun than...
00:11:53Well, I always said you were more fun too as far as that goes
00:11:57Well, I'm not anymore
00:11:58I'm broke and disillusioned and that makes me bitter
00:12:01Oh, poor Gee
00:12:03Well, with one thing, no one can pan either one of you to the other
00:12:06Oh, well, you can have my good luck, Preston, anyhow, Gee
00:12:09I'll give you my red box first
00:12:11Oh, that's sweet
00:12:12Well, anyhow
00:12:13You will call up Dave, won't you?
00:12:16Sure, I will
00:12:17Yes
00:12:18Tell him not to bring any bromide, get a regular guy or nothing
00:12:20Having girl trouble day?
00:12:23Girl trouble?

00:22:19well
00:22:28well
00:22:29well
00:22:34well
00:22:38This is the way to listen to music, just lying around half cockeyed in the dark.
00:22:49That's the way to listen to anything, music or live.
00:22:54This is a life all right, only some people don't know it.
00:22:59Say, Dave, what do you think of Jean falling asleep on Feldman's playing and now she's sleeping on Polaris?
00:23:04Well, she said she didn't like piano players.
00:23:06I know, but that's a fine way to act when they invite you to their house.
00:23:17That's that.
00:23:19Well, should we have some light?
00:23:21Certainly, if it doesn't disturb your friend.
00:23:27What time is it?
00:23:28Why, it's after four.
00:23:30After four? Gee, I gotta go home. I can't sit up all night listening to you play the piano.
00:23:34I've got a golf lesson at nine in the morning. I'll go upstairs and get my coat.
00:23:41Oh, wear something for a thirst.
00:23:45Gee, you've been holding out on me.
00:23:48I didn't know you could really play.
00:23:50I can't, really.
00:23:51But you can really. I knew you had something.
00:23:54I see you think I've got a pretty talented girl, Feldman.
00:23:57Yes, that's why I want to talk to her.
00:23:58I don't want to talk. I hate people who can talk.
00:24:02So do I. But tell me, where did you learn what you know about music?
00:24:07Somebody sat me down on a piano stool when I was a kid.
00:24:09What made you get up?
00:24:11That's a long story, and I hate long stories.
00:24:15Yeah, so do I.
00:24:18Come on, everybody. Let's have a little drinky.
00:24:20Come into my study. I can talk to you better there, and we won't disturb your friend's slumber.
00:24:29Well, perhaps a little more music might help.
00:24:34Well, I'll be...
00:24:35I can make an artist of you.
00:24:51No, you couldn't. I haven't got the guts.
00:24:53Now, don't talk like a fool.
00:24:55Why not? I am a fool.
00:24:58I've got just enough sense to realize that you're a divine artist, which I object to.
00:25:02Well, why do you object?
00:25:03Because nothing that's divine is any fun.
00:25:06And anything that's not fun is out, as far as I'm concerned.
00:25:10Come in, Captain.
00:25:11Oh, I'd rather not.
00:25:12Well, I'm not proud.
00:25:13Oh, lay off Jean.
00:25:14Day isn't enjoying this anymore than you are.
00:25:16Well, why doesn't he stand up for his rights then and do something?
00:25:18Rights? I haven't any rights.
00:25:20Pilea's not my property.
00:25:22Well, Feldman's mine.
00:25:24All New Yorks are picked from, and you had to bring a piano player.
00:25:27What's wrong with that?
00:25:29I'm not worried.
00:25:30Don't lie to me.
00:25:31I'm not lying.
00:25:32Anyway, I think this party's seen better days.
00:25:36Why don't we all go out somewhere for breakfast?
00:25:38Yes, well, I'm for that.
00:25:39I'd do anything to get that Kentucky bell out of here, playing the piano for my personal property.
00:25:44I can make you work.
00:25:49I tell you, I'm too lazy.
00:25:51I'm no good.
00:25:52I know I'm no good.
00:25:53If you're good enough for Boris Feldman, you're good enough for the world.
00:25:56Oh.
00:25:58Would you kindly leave us alone?
00:26:00I just wanted to tell you that Mr. Emery's taking us all out to breakfast.
00:26:07Well, if he takes you out, I'll be perfectly satisfied.
00:26:12No man living can make a crack like that to me and get away with it.
00:26:17Day.
00:26:18Would you mind stepping here for just a half a second, Mrs. Stewart?
00:26:20Sure.
00:26:20Sure.
00:26:30I don't want to take advantage of my friend's day, but you're very fond of this girl.
00:26:35I've made her a proposition.
00:26:37Let her study with me for two years and I'll make her rich and famous.
00:26:42Well, I don't see why that's taking advantage of me.
00:26:45She won't have me make her anything but notorious.
00:26:47I don't want to be famous and I don't have to be rich.
00:26:50I never give advice except when I'm tight, so I think you'd better take him up and do what he tells you.
00:26:56Even if that washes up everything between you and me?
00:26:59Well, why does that follow?
00:27:01Doesn't it, Feldman?
00:27:03Obviously.
00:27:04She'll have to travel with my company, go on my tours, spend her summers in Europe studying.
00:27:11Now, will you tell her that I can offer her more than you or will you stand in her way?
00:27:16Well, I don't want to stand in her way, but...
00:27:17Well, there may be some point in my stepping out of your way.
00:27:21I've chosen.
00:27:23I'm bad for him, but I may be of some use to myself.
00:27:26When do we stop?
00:27:28Right away.
00:27:29That's a little sudden.
00:27:31No, it isn't.
00:27:33It's better to have everything straight like that.
00:27:35It's simpler.
00:27:37You are a sport, Dave.
00:27:38Oh, that's all right.
00:27:39But, uh, don't forget me if you fall off the piano stool.
00:27:50None of that.
00:27:52You're mine now and I'm jealous.
00:27:53Always in the course of a long evening, somebody always drinks a toast.
00:28:01Usually with less excuse than I've got.
00:28:02Well, here's to Polair's future.
00:28:11Polair's future?
00:28:12Why?
00:28:13Because she's promised to give me her hand.
00:28:16I did not say her hand, and I'm going to help her to make them famous.
00:28:20He thinks he can teach me to play the piano well enough to get paid for it.
00:28:23She's promised to work.
00:28:24I'll get you some coffee.
00:28:27I'll help you.
00:28:27Thanks, Noah.
00:28:28I keep my coffee in the strangest places.
00:28:29Just a moment.
00:28:31Do I win that bet?
00:28:33What bet?
00:28:34Did you or did you not bet me a mink coat that you'd make me love you?
00:28:38I did.
00:28:39Well, you haven't made me.
00:28:43Five thousand dollars, didn't we say?
00:28:45Five thousand, yes.
00:28:48Count them yourself.
00:28:50That's what I call high, wide, and handsome.
00:28:53And for me, it's as handsome does.
00:28:55I even return you a handkerchief.
00:28:57You can keep that.
00:28:58Thanks, though.
00:28:58I didn't win it.
00:29:01I've won much more.
00:29:03I can't remember when I've had a more profitable evening.
00:29:07I'll be going home, I guess.
00:29:11Wait a minute.
00:29:13I suppose you know you've made a little fool of yourself?
00:29:16I've always known that, my dear.
00:29:18Oh, yeah?
00:29:19Well, this party certainly died to death.
00:29:21I'm going home.
00:29:22What's your hurry?
00:29:24I'm not thinking of going yet.
00:29:26All right, then take off your coat and stick around a while.
00:29:29I'm cold.
00:29:30All right, keep it on, then.
00:29:32Come on, Dave.
00:29:32Let's go in the kitchen and get some coffee.
00:29:34Cold?
00:29:37What's this?
00:29:55Well, when I did that, I was hot.
00:29:58Your methods have never been exactly subtle, have they?
00:30:01They usually work.
00:30:04Which one were you planning that for, Feldman or Day?
00:30:07My business.
00:30:09I'm sorry, Jean.
00:30:10Can I help it if Feldman likes me?
00:30:13Try it on Day.
00:30:15He's a swell guy.
00:30:17Oh, don't bother me.
00:30:18I'm busy.
00:30:18I thought you'd gone.
00:30:24I'm waiting for the Marines to drag me out.
00:30:32I've done my best to get rid of them.
00:30:34Well, I'd rather you told them that I'd gone home.
00:30:37You're shy.
00:30:38I like that.
00:30:39I'm just not used to letting people in on my business the way you do.
00:30:42Where are you going?
00:30:44I'm going home to get a few things.
00:30:47Well, it's, uh, it's just ten minutes to five.
00:30:52I'll give you those ten minutes.
00:30:54I'll be back.
00:30:57No, not while Day's still here.
00:30:59Is she gone?
00:31:14Yes, she's gone.
00:31:16I'm going, too.
00:31:18Well, goodbye.
00:31:20Goodbye.
00:31:22Goodbye.
00:31:24Goodbye.
00:31:24Goodbye.
00:31:24Goodbye.
00:31:41Even suspect we've overstayed our welcome.
00:31:43You may be right there, too.
00:31:45Get your own hat and coat, Dave.
00:31:47How's that?
00:31:49Has Jean gone yet?
00:31:51Yes, she's gone home.
00:31:52I wonder where that is.
00:31:53I haven't the faintest idea.
00:31:58Well, no hard feelings, I hope, old man.
00:32:01Of course there are.
00:32:02Still, I'll wish you luck, since we may not meet again.
00:32:05Thanks.
00:32:05Thanks.
00:32:06Thanks.
00:32:07Thanks.
00:32:07Thanks.
00:32:07Thanks.
00:32:11Our program continues with Lucille Oliver singing Tosti's Goodbye.
00:32:36Well, I'd say to give you back your $5,000.
00:32:52Why?
00:32:54Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies.
00:32:57Keep it.
00:33:00I didn't win it.
00:33:02Oh, yes, you did.
00:33:05You didn't try to make me love you, Feldman.
00:33:09You want me to?
00:33:13Oh, I'm still here.
00:33:14As I see you are.
00:33:23First, I'll have a little drinky, and then I'll go.
00:33:25Oh, you too.
00:33:37Sorry to hurry you, my dear, but...
00:33:39How many blonde Italians have you known?
00:33:43Only one.
00:33:54Oh, I'm hot.
00:33:57Oh, I wonder where my dress is.
00:34:02I did have a dress once.
00:34:06Pardon my appearance.
00:34:07I find it hard to.
00:34:15Oh, this is the most wonderful couch in the world.
00:34:22Do you mind if I stay here?
00:34:27Just what do you want?
00:34:34I want to take piano lessons.
00:34:37You won that bet.
00:34:43Did I?
00:34:45Did you want to win it?
00:34:47I'm afraid I did.
00:34:52Don't go.
00:34:54Let it ring.
00:34:55I'm sleeping.
00:35:04No.
00:35:06They'll go away.
00:35:10They've gone.
00:35:11I'm sleeping.
00:35:18I've been missing.
00:35:25I've been sleeping.
00:35:25I've been sleeping.
00:35:28I've been sleeping.
00:35:31Sometimes we have exposed.
00:35:31I don't remember the night.

00:36:44Pretty girl.
00:37:13I'm too late.
00:37:14Call an ambulance.
00:37:16Give me a hand.
00:37:17Come and help me with this driver.
00:37:25Hello.
00:37:27Yeah, this is she.
00:37:30Who?
00:37:32Hospital?
00:37:33What hospital?
00:37:35Taxi accident?
00:37:36Is she hurt badly?
00:37:37I'll be right over.
00:37:43Well, it was a milk wagon.
00:37:48Either my driver was a drinking man or he doesn't like milk wagons.
00:37:52I never should have let Jean have my bad dime.
00:37:55Well, I'll call day.
00:37:56Oh, no.
00:37:57Now that's all washed up.
00:38:00Well, where was Feldman?
00:38:02Yeah, that was too good to be true.
00:38:05Well, what are you gonna do?
00:38:07Get well?
00:38:08Get my bad dime back?
00:38:10And get good and even?
00:38:11Good and even with who?
00:38:12With that big stiff Jean.
00:38:13Jean?
00:38:14Yes.
00:38:15She beat me to it.
00:38:17Jean and Feldman.
00:38:18What?
00:38:19I wonder how they'll get on.
00:38:49But I saw you asleep.
00:38:59Say, listen.
00:39:00I just called you up to tell you that from now on I sleep when I please.
00:39:04And with or without music.
00:39:06Well, don't write wire.
00:39:10Emma?
00:39:11Come here.
00:39:12Take this address book and get on that telephone.
00:39:13We've got to see where we go from here.
00:39:14Yes, Miss Jean.
00:39:15Where do I begin?
00:39:16Start at the beginning and go right through.
00:39:17I'm back in circulation.
00:39:30Oh, come on.
00:39:31Tell me.
00:39:33What, my whole life story again?
00:39:35Tell me what you hear from Shotzi and Polaire.
00:39:39I'd rather not go into that.
00:39:41I don't hear anything.
00:39:44What do you hear from Polaire?
00:39:46Oh, nothing.
00:39:47I suppose she's where I saw her last.
00:39:49In Feldman's flat.
00:39:53Well.
00:39:54Now that we've got that off our mind, what have you done in your hip?
00:39:57Well, I can't understand why he didn't get there.
00:40:12I'm sure he said lunch and I waited as long as I could.
00:40:15I have this appointment at 3.30, you know.
00:40:17But if he comes and ask him to call me here.
00:40:19I wouldn't worry if I were you.
00:40:21Life isn't so easy these days that a girl can afford not to worry.
00:40:26Who's in that booth?
00:40:27That Miss Sutro?
00:40:28I believe it is, Miss.
00:40:30Who's in that next booth?
00:40:31It's your friend, Miss Lawrence.
00:40:33Well, hello you.
00:40:34Hello yourself.
00:40:35Where have you been keeping yourself?
00:40:36Ask me no questions or I'll tell you no lies.
00:40:37Where's Polaire?
00:40:38Ask me any questions you want to.
00:40:39I can keep my trap shut.
00:40:40How's Feldman?
00:40:41Oh, we parted.
00:40:42I knew that wouldn't last.
00:40:43Our temperament's worse suited.
00:40:44Who'd you have lunch with today?
00:40:45Well, what's it to you?
00:40:46Well, I don't know if it's anything to me.
00:40:47Only I had a luncheon engaging with Pops and he didn't keep it.
00:40:49So a little snooping seems in order.
00:40:50The gentleman he took out of his hands.
00:40:51Oh, ask him to wait.
00:40:52Ask him to come in.
00:40:53This is my life.
00:40:54This is my life.
00:40:55This is my life.
00:40:56I'm not a good friend.
00:40:57I'm not a good friend.
00:40:58I'm not a good friend.
00:40:59I'm not a good friend.
00:41:00I'm a good friend.
00:41:01I'm a good friend.
00:41:02I'm a good friend.
00:41:04My friend, Miss Lawrence, I'm a good friend.
00:41:05I'm a good friend.
00:41:06I'm a good friend.
00:41:07I'm a good friend.
00:41:08He's in order.
00:41:09The gentleman he took out of his hands.
00:41:10Oh, ask him to wait.
00:41:11Ask him to come in.
00:41:12This is my territory, Al Capone.
00:41:14Knowing your habits, I want to be sure of that.
00:41:16Oh, hello.
00:41:17Uh, you've met Mr. Emery, haven't you?
00:41:19Well, hello, Shafi.
00:41:20You know I've met him.
00:41:21She thought you were part.
00:41:23No.
00:41:24I can't imagine why she's so fretful about Pops.
00:41:26Are you two playing around together now?
00:41:28Well, he's my fiance.
00:41:29Nothing engaged or anything like that.
00:41:30That's like you.
00:41:31What is?
00:41:32Trying to take your best friend's man away from her.
00:41:34And you don't look so hot either.
00:41:35What do you mean?
00:41:36She gave him up, didn't she?
00:41:37Say, we're going out to have a little drinky.
00:41:38Won't you join us?
00:41:39This way to the hearing from me, Department.
00:41:40Say, anything you've got to say about me, you'll say before me.
00:41:43I wouldn't say what I've got to say about you before anybody.
00:41:47Ah!
00:41:48Now listen, young man, I've got news for you.
00:41:50At least I think a lot less of you if it isn't news.
00:41:52I'm not supposed to tell you, but now that I see what that baby's up to.
00:41:55Did you know that Polaris has been in the hospital?
00:41:56What?
00:41:57Yeah, ever since that night at Fellman.
00:41:58What hospital?
00:41:59Let's go to the hospital.
00:42:00I'm sorry about that drink.
00:42:01I'm going.
00:42:02Hey, you can't get away with that.
00:42:03Well, you can't talk about that.
00:42:04That's because it's you.
00:42:17And this, because it's me.
00:42:21Well, I always knew you were a prince, but I never dreamed you were such a glutton for punishment.
00:42:26The recipient places the ring on the usual finger and kisses the donor.
00:42:32Wait a minute.
00:42:34How do you know I won't walk out on you again?
00:42:37Well, if I make you happy, you won't want to.
00:42:40And if I don't, do I deserve to lose you?
00:42:43Talk to your father first.
00:42:44Till then, I'm not holding you to any promises made.
00:42:46Except one.
00:42:47What's that?
00:42:48That you still like me.
00:42:49Darling.
00:42:50Well, we'll bury the hatchet.
00:42:51And have a little drinky, huh?
00:42:52Well, all right.
00:42:53Yes.
00:42:54Ah, remember what happened to Mary Gwina's car?
00:42:57Yeah.
00:42:58It's for you.
00:42:59It deserves it.
00:43:00Oh, it was.
00:43:01Hello?
00:43:02Yes, this is she.
00:43:03Who?
00:43:04What's the matter?
00:43:05It's Pop.
00:43:06What about Pop?
00:43:07He's passed.
00:43:08Where?
00:43:09Out.
00:43:10Oh.
00:43:11Oh, we'll bury the hatchet.
00:43:12And have a little drinky, huh?
00:43:13Well, all right, yes.
00:43:14Ah, remember what happened to Mary Gwina's car?
00:43:16Yeah.
00:43:17It's for you, Mr. Gwina.
00:43:18Oh, it was.
00:43:19Hello?
00:43:20Yes, this is she.
00:43:23Who?
00:43:24What's the matter?
00:43:26It's Pop.
00:43:27What about Pop?
00:43:28He's passed.
00:43:29Where?
00:43:30Out.
00:43:31Oh.
00:43:36It makes me feel a little queer.
00:43:38Yeah, me too.
00:43:40It makes me realize how fond I was about Pop.
00:43:44Me too.
00:43:46Oh, I'm going to miss Pop something terrible.
00:43:49Me too.
00:43:50You?
00:43:52Any objection to be missing Pop?
00:43:55Yes, I have.
00:43:56Why?
00:43:57Well, it don't seem respectful to his memory.
00:44:00Oh.
00:44:01Oh, is that so?
00:44:03And when I think of the way you took advantage of him.
00:44:05Me?
00:44:06Yes, you.
00:44:07How did I ever take advantage of Pop?
00:44:08Were you ever after anything but his money?
00:44:10Oh, I like your nerve.
00:44:11And when I think I could have saved him from you if I had the time.
00:44:14You say Pop from me?
00:44:16Maybe it isn't too late yet.
00:44:18Too late for what?
00:44:19For me to get busy.
00:44:20Call out the reserves.
00:44:21Get into action.
00:44:22And leave you holding the bag.
00:44:23Hey, what are you going to do?
00:44:24Come here, come here.
00:44:25Take this thing off my head.
00:44:26What are you going to do?
00:44:27Come here.
00:44:28Will you come in, please?
00:44:29If you ladies will sit down, I'll call Mr. Garrett.
00:44:30Hardly.
00:44:31Hardly.
00:44:32Oh, I don't like this.
00:44:33Well, you've got to go through with it.
00:44:34I don't like this.
00:44:35Well, you've got to go through with it.
00:44:36I don't like this.
00:44:37How do you do?
00:44:38How do you do?
00:44:39Which is Ms. Sutro?
00:44:40I am.
00:44:41This is Ms. Sutro.
00:44:42I don't like it
00:45:07Gwynne. I've heard both your names. This is a painful occasion, ladies. Very. My client and your
00:45:16late friend, as you know, Miss Sutro, was a man who all his life did things his own way. Are you
00:45:23trying to tell me something's wrong? No, my dear lady, not a thing. Only a little ceremony, for which
00:45:30my client left most strict instruction. Is the other lady ready? Yes, sir. What other lady? Just a moment, please. Show her in.
00:45:42Will you come in, please?
00:45:55You sit there, Miss Lauren.
00:46:00You may proceed.
00:46:15Being in sound health and body, I wish to make a few remarks in my own voice to supplement what I have
00:46:35already put in writing. Oh, poor Pops. He has a cold. He had a cold.
00:46:44I have of late years been associated with three young women, known as Jean, Shatzi, and Polaire.
00:46:50For Polaire, I have only the highest but most disinterested esteem. I have embodied my feelings
00:46:55for Shatzi in my will. I take this means, however, of warning my executives against the scheming
00:47:02of the one named Jean.
00:47:04That's a lie.
00:47:05I knew you'd say that. Sit down.
00:47:07Is there anything else, madame?
00:47:20No, I don't think so. What do you want, Shatzi?
00:47:24A large club.
00:47:26Say, remember, stupid, we're ordering breakfast. Try to have it here before the middle of the afternoon.
00:47:31Yes, madame.
00:47:33Can you beat that? A yes, madame, waiter, and a yes, ma'am, menu.
00:47:36I'm glad I told Day to bring your father here this afternoon and not for lunch.
00:47:40Wouldn't it be a terrible mistake if they came for dinner?
00:47:42Not a chance. They'll be here this afternoon at four.
00:47:54Hello?
00:47:57What do you want? It's Jean.
00:48:00What do you want to see us about?
00:48:02Well, make it some other time. I'm busy this afternoon.
00:48:07All right, then. Three o'clock.
00:48:10Will that be all, madame?
00:48:12That's all. Sclam.
00:48:14Yes, madame.
00:48:15No, no. Wait a minute.
00:48:18Is that all the clothes you've got?
00:48:21I don't think I understand you, madame.
00:48:23Well, have you got a real butler's suit?
00:48:24Can you get a real butler's suit?
00:48:26Yes, madame.
00:48:28Very well, then, Jeeves.
00:48:29You're going to be our butler for about half an hour this afternoon.
00:48:33When that dame shows up, we'll show her a family retainer that'll knock her eye out.
00:48:36Yes, great. She won't get over that for a year.
00:48:38You'll be back here at three o'clock with that butler's suit and serve tea.
00:48:41We won't want you for long.
00:48:42Now, you understand?
00:48:43Yes, madame.
00:48:44Is this Miss Sutcloth's apartment?
00:49:06Yes, miss.
00:49:07Will she in?
00:49:08I'll see if she's at home, miss.
00:49:10What name shall I say?
00:49:14Lawrence.
00:49:18Won't you be seated, miss?
00:49:25Just a moment.
00:49:28By any chance, is your name Meadows?
00:49:31No, miss.
00:49:33Herbert Scroggins.
00:49:34That's all I wanted to know.
00:49:45Well, well, well.
00:49:46Jean, my dear.
00:49:47How are you?
00:49:48No one knows.
00:49:50Well, but you came here to be a sponsor.
00:49:51I didn't come here with a handful of calling cards.
00:49:58Jean, my dear.
00:49:59Oh, it's simply wonderful to see you again.
00:50:02You're looking too marvelous yourself, my dear.
00:50:05Believe it or not.
00:50:07Why, we're forgetting Jean hasn't had her tea yet.
00:50:11Shall I call Joan, shall I say?
00:50:13Why not?
00:50:14Oh, here he is now.
00:50:15How are all the other slaves of the old plantation, Herbert?
00:50:26Well, there you have me, Mum.
00:50:29Shall I call?
00:50:30If you will.
00:50:34Cream?
00:50:35No.
00:50:37How wise she is not to take cream.
00:50:40You're two or three pounds of the good, aren't you?
00:50:41That's a cute little jacket.
00:50:47This?
00:50:48Yes.
00:50:49Where did you get it?
00:50:51I shot it in my own kitchen.
00:50:55Did you get that thing you're wearing?
00:50:57Oh, this?
00:50:58Oh, the man who made it is so well known, you never even heard of him.
00:51:03Oh, I've heard an eye.
00:51:04Oh, ginger.
00:51:13It don't last till you get it home.
00:51:15Yeah?
00:51:16Well, it lasted till it got home to me.
00:51:19Look.
00:51:21Got these since I saw you last.
00:51:24They're real.
00:51:25You knew they were.
00:51:27I can always tell real pearls.
00:51:28Even when they're such little ones.
00:51:34Oh, is that so?
00:51:36Well, some of these aren't so little.
00:51:40And some of them aren't so real, are they?
00:51:42Oh, is that so?
00:51:44Well, I didn't come here to be high-hatted and nobody gets away with it.
00:51:46What did you come here for?
00:51:47I came here because I made up my mind you've got to be told where you get off.
00:51:50Nobody gets away with double-crossing me.
00:51:51Who's double-crossing you?
00:51:52Now, don't tell me you didn't put Pops up in that photograph, gang.
00:51:54Oh, now, Jean, I swear.
00:51:55And I suppose you didn't take Day Emery away from me just as I got started on him.
00:51:57If Polly, I gave him up and said I could have him.
00:51:59Polly, I didn't want to give him up and you knew it anyway, didn't you?
00:52:01Oh, never mind what I did.
00:52:06Hello?
00:52:08Oh, yes, dear.
00:52:10When?
00:52:10Now?
00:52:13Well, all right.
00:52:16You've got to go.
00:52:18I've got to what?
00:52:18Go.
00:52:19They're on the way.
00:52:20They just telephoned.
00:52:21Yeah, you've got to go.
00:52:21We've got business here this afternoon.
00:52:22It's private business.
00:52:24Well, is it so private you can't let an old friend in on it?
00:52:27Yes, Jean, I'm sorry, but it is.
00:52:29Well, that's what I call carrying things too far.
00:52:33Keeping secrets from your oldest friend.
00:52:36Throwing your oldest friend out into the street.
00:52:39I'm sorry, Jean.
00:52:40Oh, why should I be interested anyway?
00:52:41Oh, Jean, to the left side of the...
00:52:42That might be you.
00:52:45I'll have to tell her.
00:52:46Oh, no, no, don't tell me.
00:52:48Oh, no, don't tell me.
00:52:50If it's so private, don't think of telling me.
00:52:52What is it?
00:52:57I'm going to be married.
00:53:00You're going to be married?
00:53:02Who to?
00:53:03Well, no, I don't want it talked about, but...
00:53:07Day Emery.
00:53:10You're going to marry Day Emery?
00:53:12Yes.
00:53:14And he's bringing his father here.
00:53:16Now?
00:53:17Yes, to look me over.
00:53:19And, well, you see, Jean's day wouldn't want anyone else here.
00:53:24Oh.
00:53:26Oh, I see.
00:53:29Well, love, why not let the old man look us all over?
00:53:33Oh, no.
00:53:34No, I'd rather not.
00:53:38Oh.
00:53:41Well, of course.
00:53:43That's the way you feel about it.
00:53:46It's all right with me.
00:53:51Ahem.
00:53:52Well, anyhow, let's all have a little drinky, just for good luck, huh?
00:53:55Nobody has any little drinky tea this afternoon.
00:53:57This is over, and that's that.
00:54:00Well, all right.
00:54:01I'll go.
00:54:03I'll do more than that.
00:54:04I'll take back all I said.
00:54:07Now, look, we're old friends.
00:54:10I always liked you two guys.
00:54:12Now, this is no time for hard feelings.
00:54:14Let's shake.
00:54:18You're a great scout, Jean.
00:54:21You're no slouch yourself.
00:54:23Goodbye.
00:54:23Goodbye.
00:54:24I'll be seeing you.
00:54:26Oh, Jean.
00:54:27What?
00:54:28Just a moment.
00:54:29Here are your gloves.
00:54:37Take them with you so you don't have to come back after them.
00:54:41Thanks.
00:54:44Are you sure you've got everything?
00:54:46You didn't hide a horse and buggy around here, did you?
00:54:48Oh, Polair.
00:54:55How about taking your wedding presents from me now?
00:54:59Oh, Jean.
00:55:00Yes, why not?
00:55:01Oh, you're crazy.
00:55:03No, I want you to have them.
00:55:04That's my business.
00:55:05Oh, no, I'm not.
00:55:05That's too much.
00:55:06But I want you to have them.
00:55:11I'm sorry you didn't get me out in time.
00:55:18Hello, darling.
00:55:20Where's your father?
00:55:21Isn't he coming?
00:55:22Oh, he prepared that I brought it to him.
00:55:23You don't mind, darling, do you?
00:55:25Oh, all right.
00:55:26I'm scared, but I don't mind.
00:55:28I'll get you a coat.
00:55:30I feel just like a mama, which I hope you appreciate.
00:55:32I do.
00:55:33How do you do, Mr. Emery?
00:55:35Oh, how do you do?
00:55:36I believe congratulations are in order.
00:55:38Yes, they are.
00:55:40Yes, I haven't seen you since the day of the big wind.
00:55:46Here's your hat and coat.
00:55:48I don't know why I should be so excited about a wedding
00:55:50when I think of all the times I could have gotten married.
00:55:52Yes.
00:55:53Good luck, old dear.
00:55:56Thanks, Jean, for everything.
00:55:58Don't mention it.
00:55:59Come on, Paulette.
00:56:00I want my bad dime.
00:56:02Why?
00:56:03Well, you know why.
00:56:03She's cuckoo not to believe in the fool thing.
00:56:05So am I.
00:56:06You don't want your bad dime.
00:56:07Come on.
00:56:07Oh, but I do say good luck.
00:56:13Now, Miss Soarhead, you can have your little drakey.
00:56:17I'll open up a pint for you.
00:56:19Pint?
00:56:20What teetotaler ever invented pint?
00:56:26Did you break anything?
00:56:27No, but I will.
00:56:40Now, you wait here and I'll go and find Father.
00:56:43I'm scared.
00:56:44I know you think I'm not half good enough for you.
00:56:47Oh, darling.
00:56:47Miss Gwynne, my father.
00:57:04How do you do, Miss Gwynne?
00:57:05How do you do, Miss Anne-Marie?
00:57:08Say.
00:57:09What?
00:57:09Come here.
00:57:11Just a minute.
00:57:11Come on.
00:57:13Oh, you'll join us later.
00:57:14Oh, I want to see you.
00:57:15Never mind, Father.
00:57:16Do as I say.
00:57:21You see, Miss Gwynne, I wanted a few minutes with you as own.
00:57:24Will you give me some tea?
00:57:25Why, yes, of course.
00:57:26Strong with cream and sugar.
00:57:32Well, I'll open another pint.
00:57:34Oh.
00:57:35They're both Polaire's, but she won't mind.
00:57:37I've had enough.
00:57:38You've had what?
00:57:39I've had enough.
00:57:40I'm going home.
00:57:42Boy, I never knew you to stop on one drink before.
00:57:44Call me a taxi, please.
00:57:45I'll be right down.
00:57:47What are you up to?
00:57:48Ask me no questions.
00:57:48I'll tell you no lies.
00:57:50Where are your pearls?
00:57:51My pearls?
00:57:52Oh, Polaire's got them.
00:57:53Polaire gave them back to you.
00:57:54No, I don't think so.
00:57:55Why, so are you?
00:57:56Well, I haven't got them, have I?
00:57:57Well, you might have put them down someplace.
00:57:58Well, if I did, you keep them.
00:58:00They're...
00:58:00Say, I can't understand why you're so careless about real pearls.
00:58:03Well, why should I worry?
00:58:04They're safe here, aren't they?
00:58:06You're up to something.
00:58:07Oh, what would I be up to?
00:58:08I don't know.
00:58:09But you're not going to leave this place until you find those pearls.
00:58:11A great fortune needs a serious master.
00:58:14That's why I can't leave my money to my son.
00:58:17Can't you?
00:58:17Day hasn't shown himself very serious.
00:58:21I've never cared about money.
00:58:27Well, you see, they're not here.
00:58:30Oh, they must be here.
00:58:30I saw Polaire give them back to you.
00:58:32I was standing right there.
00:58:33It's very funny to me that they're not around.
00:58:35Gene!
00:58:40Hello?
00:58:41Hello, operator.
00:58:42Operator.
00:58:43Now, get this.
00:58:44Miss Lawrence is on her way downstairs for a taxi cab.
00:58:46You send an elevator boy out to get the address she gives the driver.
00:58:49Yeah, now, I'll wait here.
00:58:51But I'm glad Day's made up his mind to marry at last.
00:58:55No matter whom?
00:58:56So long as she marries him for himself, not for his money.
00:59:01I didn't realize Day would be giving up so much.
00:59:05Oh, not that I mind for myself.
00:59:08But it's hard on him.
00:59:10No, it's good for him to want anyone as much as he wants you.
00:59:13And now that I've seen you, I shan't interfere.
00:59:23Shall we call Day now?
00:59:24Yes, please do.
00:59:26Hello?
00:59:27What's that address?
00:59:28What?
00:59:29Call me a taxi.
00:59:34I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you for my pearls.
00:59:41I'm totally sorry, but I'm afraid I'll have to bother you for my pearls.
00:59:47You'll pardon me, won't you?
00:59:49I'm struggling for my pearls.
00:59:53This name is nuts.
00:59:55You're a great scout, Father.
01:00:01When can we get married?
01:00:02Isn't that for the young lady to say?
01:00:04Oh, I'm ready any time.
01:00:06Oh, darling.
01:00:06Oh, I beg pardon, sir.
01:00:08Miss Willis?
01:00:08There's a Miss Lawrence here asking to see Miss Gwyn.
01:00:11Miss Lawrence?
01:00:11Jean?
01:00:12What's she doing here?
01:00:13Why, I can't imagine.
01:00:15A friend of yours?
01:00:16Oh, yes.
01:00:18Can she wait somewhere?
01:00:19She says her business is most urgent, Miss.
01:00:21Well, ask the young lady to come in.
01:00:22All right.
01:00:27Will you come this way, please?
01:00:29Of course, it just kills me to interrupt your session, but I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you for my...
01:00:34Oh.
01:00:36Oh, I beg your pardon?
01:00:39Miss Lawrence, my father.
01:00:41How do you do?
01:00:44How do you do?
01:00:46I thought you said you had urgent business here, Jean.
01:00:50Yes, it can wait.
01:00:51Why do you go down this street?
01:00:58The street's all right, lady.
01:00:58It's the traffic.
01:00:59I know it's the traffic.
01:01:00Why don't you go through the park?
01:01:01Well, it's just the same any place you go, lady.
01:01:03They'd only listen to me about this traffic.
01:01:05I've seen you somewhere before.
01:01:11Oh, have you indeed?
01:01:12Yes, you were pointed out to me at the Earl Carroll's Vanities.
01:01:14Oh, but I've never been to Earl Carroll's Vanities.
01:01:17No?
01:01:18Well, perhaps it was the polo at Westchester-Biltmore.
01:01:20Possible.
01:01:21Yeah.
01:01:22Could it have been the opera?
01:01:23I don't think so.
01:01:24Oh?
01:01:25A horse show?
01:01:26Maybe.
01:01:27Well, it must have been someplace.
01:01:29You are good-looking, you know, and I never forget a face.
01:01:33Is that all you came to say, Jean?
01:01:37Well, isn't that an all-right thing to say?
01:01:39Sure.
01:01:40Only you came a long way to say it.
01:01:43Oh, I know where I was.
01:01:44I beg your pardon.
01:01:44I know where I saw you before.
01:01:46Where?
01:01:46In the movies.
01:01:47The movies?
01:01:48What are you talking about?
01:01:49Yes, yes.
01:01:50It was about a year ago.
01:01:52Oh, she means the newsreel.
01:01:54Yes, yes.
01:01:56You were in a little boat getting off your yacht.
01:01:59How do you remember that?
01:02:00Oh, I never forget a yacht.
01:02:04I beg your pardon, sir.
01:02:06Yes, Billings, what is it?
01:02:07There's a Miss Sutro here, asking for Miss Lawrence.
01:02:12Chatsy.
01:02:12What does she want?
01:02:13Another friend?
01:02:14Why, yes, but don't ask her in.
01:02:16We'd better go.
01:02:17Come on, Jean.
01:02:18Just a moment.
01:02:19What's your hurry?
01:02:20Billings, ask the young lady to wait.
01:02:22I've just come.
01:02:24I'm sure Mr. Emery doesn't watch.
01:02:26Well, maybe he doesn't, but I do.
01:02:28Now, look here, Jean.
01:02:28What is there to get so excited about, darling?
01:02:30Well, that's what I don't know.
01:02:32But Jean's here for no good or Shatsy wouldn't come.
01:02:37You'll be sorry you pulled that one, baby.
01:02:39My dear Miss Lawrence.
01:02:42Where are my pearls?
01:02:43How should I know where your pearls are?
01:02:45Did you have her pearls?
01:02:46Certainly she had them.
01:02:48But what were you doing with them?
01:02:50That's a long story, and I hate long stories.
01:02:53I'll tell you what she was doing with them.
01:02:55She wanted to wear them here.
01:02:57So you wouldn't think she was a gold digger.
01:03:01Jean, you've got genius.
01:03:04I'm sorry, Mr. Emery, but they were real pearls, and real pearls are worth money.
01:03:07Of course, she may be playing a joke.
01:03:10If anybody's playing a joke, it's you, and it's gone far enough.
01:03:13She's trying to make me out a thief.
01:03:16I never thought of such a thing.
01:03:17You must be crazy.
01:03:18I'm not crazy, and I'm not a thief.
01:03:20I gave you back those pearls, and you know it perfectly well.
01:03:23Why, Shatsy saw me do it.
01:03:25Shatsy!
01:03:26Not all this is most embarrassing for me.
01:03:29Come on in here with me, Shatsy.
01:03:31There's going to be trouble.
01:03:31Oh, I knew it.
01:03:33Shatsy, you saw me give her those pearls.
01:03:35Sure I did.
01:03:36Well, I haven't got them, have I?
01:03:37Of all the low-down frame-ups, you know perfectly well those pearls are in your bag right this minute.
01:03:42Oh, are they?
01:03:43All right.
01:03:45Well, are they here?
01:03:47Are they there?
01:03:50Well, you must have them somewhere, Anya.
01:03:51Well, fetch me, then.
01:03:52This is a grave charge you've made, Miss Lawrence.
01:03:57It's a grave charge they've made against me.
01:04:00Fancy me framing an old friend.
01:04:03Couldn't they have fallen inside your dress?
01:04:06I think you'd better look.
01:04:08Do you?
01:04:11All right, I will.
01:04:13Well, I'll help you.
01:04:14No, thanks.
01:04:15No, I'll search myself.
01:04:16Now, watch closely, Mr. Emery.
01:04:17See that I don't pull any houdini tricks.
01:04:19Look, is it there?
01:04:21Is it there?
01:04:21Is it there?
01:04:26Are they there?
01:04:28Now, are you satisfied?
01:04:33What you're laughing at?
01:04:34I can't help it.
01:04:35Now, we'll search Polaire.
01:04:36Oh, I wouldn't if I would.
01:04:37Well, Polaire's got to be cleared.
01:04:39Not James Wade, I couldn't.
01:04:40Well, we don't have to go that far with you.
01:04:46Miss Gwynn.
01:04:47You, you.
01:04:51Polaire, dear.
01:04:52So you didn't give them back.
01:04:54But of course I gave them back and she's...
01:04:56Jay, what are you thinking?
01:05:00Well, I'm thinking this is the rottenest, vilest mess I've ever seen.
01:05:04I see.
01:05:07Well, you better think more than that day and be quick about it.
01:05:09What else is there for him to think?
01:05:10It is a rotten, vile mess, but that's what you get for playing around with our kind.
01:05:14I'm glad it happened now instead of later.
01:05:17I must have been crazy to think of marrying you.
01:05:19Polaire, Polaire, Polaire, come back.
01:05:36Jay.
01:05:37Where's she gone?
01:05:38Has she gone to your place?
01:05:39I'd give her time to cool off if I were you.
01:05:40And if I were you, I'd watch her to my father.
01:05:42What?
01:05:43In the presence of the family and intimate friends, including the Duke and Duchess of Ainsley.
01:05:52The Duchess being Mr. Emery's daughter by a former marriage.
01:05:57Mr. Day Emery will act as his father's best man.
01:06:01Uh, have you the ring, Mr. Day?
01:06:04Yes, I've got the ring.
01:06:06And the bride will be given away by her mother.
01:06:09Oh, pardon me.
01:06:11Just a moment.
01:06:11Yes, my love.
01:06:14I don't know why it is, but I don't seem to be able to remember my mother's name.
01:06:19Your mother is Mrs. Randolph Hill of Kansas City.
01:06:23Your father is Colonel Randolph Hill of Kansas City.
01:06:26My father's dead.
01:06:29Your mother's husband may be dead.
01:06:31But your father is Colonel Randolph Hill of Kansas City.
01:06:37Well, anyhow.
01:06:39Oh, now, sir, about placing the string quartet.
01:06:44Oh, yes, I'll come at once.
01:06:48Excuse me, dear.
01:06:49Come with me, dear.
01:06:50Yes, father.
01:06:51Pardon me.
01:06:53Georgette, dearie, come here.
01:06:55In here, please.
01:06:57Hey, wait a minute.
01:06:57We didn't come to the wedding.
01:06:58We came to see Miss Lawrence.
01:07:00And we'll see Miss Lawrence.
01:07:01Oh, uh, will you wait in the library, ladies?
01:07:13I'll tell Miss Lawrence that you are here.
01:07:16But who shall I say?
01:07:20Miss Sears and Miss Buck of Sears Roebuck.
01:07:23Are you sure you want to go through with this?
01:07:34I want my bad dime back, and I'm going to get it.
01:07:36Now for a view of the bride alone.
01:07:38Are you ready, Miss Lawrence?
01:07:39Yes, I'm delighted.
01:07:39Come on, boys.
01:07:40Come on, don't keep Miss Lawrence waiting here.
01:07:42Just hold yourself, Miss Lawrence.
01:07:43Say, listen, do you think there are any detectives around here to put us out?
01:07:52No, they're earning their money drinking the bride's health.
01:07:59Oh, please don't disturb me now.
01:08:01Don't go out for the therapy.
01:08:02Would you give a boy a drink, please?
01:08:03Come to your desk.
01:08:13Of all the snow scenes.
01:08:27Say, cut out the personal remarks and tell me what you two guys are doing here.
01:08:31I want my bad dime.
01:08:33Yeah, Jean, give it to her so she won't be so nervous on the water.
01:08:35Water?
01:08:36What water?
01:08:37We're going to Paris.
01:08:39Paris?
01:08:41Yeah.
01:08:41We're taking the Isle de France, too.
01:08:43When?
01:08:44Today.
01:08:45About the time you're being made an honest woman.
01:08:49Oh, gee, that's great, isn't it?
01:08:50Sure, it's great.
01:08:52So if you don't mind coming across, sure I'll come across.
01:08:55Georgette, donne moi la boîte de bijoux.
01:08:58C'est tout pour mademoiselle?
01:08:58Oui, c'est tout maintenant.
01:09:00Allez-vous, allez-vous.
01:09:01Hey, elle fait attention, foulette.
01:09:03Okay, la French, as she is spoke.
01:09:08Ten lessons for ten cents.
01:09:11C'est tout, Georgette.
01:09:12Allez-vous, allez-vous.
01:09:13Oui, madame.
01:09:14I had about all the luck I could stand just now.
01:09:16I wouldn't know what to do with it anymore.
01:09:18Yeah, but you have fun in Paris, huh?
01:09:20That's what we're going for.
01:09:22See, when people have fun together, that's something, isn't it?
01:09:25Sometimes I think that's all there is.
01:09:28So do I.
01:09:29Sometimes.
01:09:32You always like that kind of junk, Jean.
01:09:35Couldn't you have got some good preferred stock instead?
01:09:38Here.
01:09:39Thanks.
01:09:40Thanks.
01:09:41You brought me lots of luck.
01:09:42I'll say.
01:09:43I guess it was luck.
01:09:45Let's have a little drinky.
01:09:47Just to say goodbye.
01:09:48Sure.
01:09:48I don't see why not.
01:09:49All right, I'll ring.
01:09:51Ah, just what we wanted.
01:09:53That's fine.
01:09:54Mr. Emery asked me to tell you that the guests are arriving, Miss Lawrence.
01:09:57All right, that's fine.
01:09:58Thanks.
01:09:58To Gay Perry.
01:10:08How long is staying over?
01:10:09Oh, as long as the staying's good.
01:10:10We haven't made any plans except for catching the boat, and we'll have to step on it to do that.
01:10:14Let's have one more little drinky on our late friends.
01:10:16Before we bury her.
01:10:17What do you mean, bury me?
01:10:18I mean, bury you.
01:10:28So when those two Italian aviators said to me, why don't we all go to Paris?
01:10:39I said, sure, why don't we all go to Paris?
01:10:40So we're all going to Paris.
01:10:42And if they only have half of what they say, they own everything in Paris except one of the bridges across the river.
01:10:48Yeah, we're sailing too.
01:10:50Yeah?
01:10:50On Mr. Emery's yacht.
01:10:52Well, now you're not going to compare Mr. Emery's yacht with the Yields of France.
01:10:55Why, they've got lifeboats bigger than his whole boat.
01:10:58Oh, we're going to our own island for our honeymoon.
01:11:03Mr. Emery owns all of it.
01:11:05Too much real estate's a poor investment.
01:11:09Why do you want some chopped suey at 2 a.m.?
01:11:12Mr. Emery says it's very romantic.
01:11:15There's lots of quail on our island.
01:11:17You can get plenty of quail in Paris.
01:11:20Yeah, well, I got something you can't get from Paris.
01:11:22What?
01:11:23I got $1 million.
01:11:25Clear and free?
01:11:26In my own name and my own bank.
01:11:29A million's not enough for a girl who sacrifices everything to go straight.
01:11:33Well, Jean always did like money.
01:11:35Yeah.
01:11:36Not as much as I like fowling around with you two guys.
01:11:40Well, then what do you marry him for anyway?
01:11:42I don't know.
01:11:43Why did you want to marry Day?
01:11:45Well, that was different.
01:11:46She liked the poor sap.
01:11:48Yeah.
01:11:49Yeah, he was a fine one.
01:11:51He was a fine one.
01:11:51No, you lay off day.
01:11:52Well, anyhow.
01:11:54Yeah.
01:11:54Yeah, anyhow.
01:11:55Yeah, anyhow.
01:11:56Anyhow.
01:11:57Anyhow.
01:12:01Who was that?
01:12:03It's the three of us.
01:12:04I'm sorry I pulled that pearl trick on you.
01:12:12We won't talk about that.
01:12:13No, we won't talk about that.
01:12:15Anyhow, it got me someplace.
01:12:17It wasn't that.
01:12:17It was my bad time.
01:12:19Oh, they're going to hold people.
01:12:21Oh, where are you supposed to go?
01:12:23Maybe it's a fire.
01:12:29That reminds me.
01:12:32What?
01:12:37It reminds me of it.
01:12:42I live next door to a firehouse.
01:12:49I'm sorry.
01:12:54I'm not too sorry for you as I am for myself.
01:12:58I'm going to go get married and be stuck on an island with nothing on it but quail.
01:13:07Why can't I have some fun?
01:13:09I'm still young.
01:13:11I'm still beautiful.
01:13:12I have everything.
01:13:14Why must I give up all my good times for that old fluff?
01:13:17Young girls all just have to pay for their mistakes.
01:13:23Poor Jean.
01:13:24She wishes she was going to Paris with us.
01:13:26Don't you, Jean?
01:13:28Well, maybe I do.
01:13:29Hey, you better keep sober.
01:13:31Oh, yes.
01:13:32Well, I'm glad we're going where this stuff grows wild.
01:13:36Yeah, goodbye, Jean.
01:13:38What?
01:13:39Goodbye.
01:13:42You are mumbling.
01:13:44I'm mumbling.
01:13:46I am.
01:13:47We'll think of you off on your island all covered with quail whenever we eat one.
01:13:55Well, we've got to go.
01:13:57No, no, don't go.
01:13:59We've got to...
01:14:00Now, come on, Jean, you fuck up.
01:14:02Oh, yeah, we can't leave you like this.
01:14:04No, you can't go and leave me like this.
01:14:08Take me with you.
01:14:10Oh, Jean.
01:14:10Oh, Jean.
01:14:11Oh, take me.
01:14:12Oh, you can't leave me feeling the way I do.
01:14:14It wouldn't be you.
01:14:15Oh, no, Jean.
01:14:16You've got to get married.
01:14:18Well, when you've got a million and all that junk, why be a hug?
01:14:27Why be a hug?
01:14:28Sure, that's what I say.
01:14:29Yes, come on, let's go.
01:14:31Come on, we'll go.
01:14:32Come on, we'll go.
01:14:32We'll go.
01:14:34We'll go down.
01:14:34Oh, the kids are out there.
01:14:37Come on, little people.
01:14:38We'll go up the back stairway.
01:14:39Up that door.
01:14:39We'll go up here.
01:14:40Come on, get them, my Joe.
01:14:41Come on.
01:14:41Come on.
01:14:42Come on.
01:14:42Come on.
01:14:43Come on.
01:14:43Yeah, that's right.
01:14:44Come on.
01:14:44Come on.
01:14:45All right.
01:14:46Come on.
01:14:46Come on.
01:14:47You two go on.
01:14:50I'll meet you in the taxi.
01:14:50Well, what is there to say you about?
01:15:02You might have listened to me.
01:15:03I had so much to tell you, and I won't be any good until I've said it.
01:15:06What can you say that will change anything now?
01:15:08Well, at least give me the satisfaction of telling you that I can't get you out of my mind.
01:15:16I'll go in there and make sure of myself.
01:15:18Oh, please, sir.
01:15:19It's very unlucky for the bridegroom to speak to the bride before the ceremony.
01:15:23I'm too old for such nonsense, and the guests are waiting.
01:15:29Hang on to that door out there.
01:15:31I don't trust these old-fashioned lies.
01:15:39Court.
01:15:41What is it?
01:15:42Are you nearly ready, my love?
01:15:45Am I ready?
01:15:46Yes, I'll be ready in two minutes.
01:15:48I'll get you cold.
01:15:49Where's my dress?
01:15:50Where's my dress?
01:15:51Dress, more or less, never bothered you before.
01:15:57Here.
01:15:58Take this, take that.
01:16:01What's that?
01:16:04It's Susan's bed.
01:16:05Come on.
01:16:08Can't you forgive me?
01:16:10Sure I forgive you.
01:16:11Well, then, if you forgive me.
01:16:13No, it stops there.
01:16:15Marry a nice girl, Day, and get a horse.
01:16:18We can't talk to you now.
01:16:20You've got to let me see you again.
01:16:21Hey.
01:16:23Try and find me.
01:16:25Full air.
01:16:25Full air.
01:16:26Come back.
01:16:26Day.
01:16:28Father, I love her.
01:16:29No more.
01:16:30My boy, there's trouble enough.
01:16:31I know there's trouble enough.
01:16:32The rocket's crossing I ever had.
01:16:35Oh, you.
01:16:36You would stop the dog of that staff.
01:16:38Don't you call him a sack.
01:16:39Now, quit scrapping.
01:16:40Come on.
01:16:40Get on me.
01:16:40Get on me up.
01:16:41Get on me up.
01:16:42No, you don't, Jean.
01:16:43What about Jean?
01:16:44Oh, I don't know.
01:16:44I knocked.
01:16:45She spoke to me, and she's gone.
01:16:46Gone where?
01:16:46I don't know.
01:16:49Day, what do you think?
01:16:50Go ahead.
01:16:55What does it mean?
01:16:56I don't know.
01:16:57But I'm going to find out.
01:17:03Oh, I'm dying.
01:17:04I'm dying.
01:17:05I'll never be the same.
01:17:07Oh, the jewels.
01:17:08Where are the jewels?
01:17:08Oh, I'll be pinched for this.
01:17:13I wish I'd never gone to that house.
01:17:18I wish I hadn't seen him.
01:17:20I love him, and I'm never going to see him again.
01:17:25Drive right through that next traffic stop.
01:17:27If I drive through the light, they'll pinch me.
01:17:29If you don't drive through the light, I'll kill you.
01:17:30Take your choice.
01:17:34Whoever gave me the job of managing you two?
01:17:36The.
01:17:43But why?
01:17:59You dared me to find you.
01:18:01Yes, but now what?
01:18:02You told me to marry a nice girl.
01:18:04I'm not a nice girl.
01:18:06I'm not a nice girl.
01:18:08I'm not a nice girl.
01:18:13You've always said that, and I've never believed you.
01:18:16Hey, you.
01:18:17You know, I ought to give you a good balling out for walking out on your father's wedding.
01:18:20You should ball him out.
01:18:21Sure.
01:18:22Wasn't I almost his mama?
01:18:25Hey, isn't that my bracelet?
01:18:26What?
01:18:27Sure, it's a bracelet Pops left me.
01:18:28Oh, Jean, for the love of Pete.
01:18:29Well, it looks like it.
01:18:31About that trip to Rome.
01:18:32Huh?
01:18:32Well, uh...
01:18:33You can have the bracelet.
01:18:34You know, I'm sure I've met you before.
01:18:36I never forget a face, and you are good-looking, you know.
01:18:40Come here, I want to talk.
