00:00The End
00:30I hate to bother, but could you change a tire for me?
00:41You want us to change a tire for you?
00:44Are you a man or a mouse?
00:46Even a mouse would be ashamed of you.
00:53Do you believe in love at first sight?
00:56Why you've got your nerve, mister?
00:59Lamar. Peter Hedley Lamar, Jr.
01:02Oh, gee. I saw your pictures in the paper. You're that millionaire.
01:07Hmm. I might have known it.
01:09Well, I assure you I had nothing to do with it.
01:12Oh, don't feel too badly about it. We'll be glad to help you change a tire.
01:15Not me. I'm not going to help you.
01:18I'm going back to camp.
01:22Back to camp? Are you girls camping out?
01:25No, we're nurses at Camp Cluster Army Hospital.
01:28Oh, why didn't she like me?
01:30Oh, Dorothy only likes soldiers. You've got to wear a uniform to make a hit with her.
01:34You do?
01:36Yeah, but don't worry. I like you even if you have got millions.
01:40Cutie!
01:40Where's the jack?
01:43Jack?
01:44Oh, not money. The jack that fixed the car.
01:47Wait, Sue. I don't know.
01:49Back here.
01:51She likes uniforms.
01:52Where's the nearest recruiting office?
01:57About five minutes right from here.
02:09Pardon me, senor.
02:10We are looking for Camp Cluster.
02:12You know which way it is, no?
02:14I know which way it is, yes.
02:16I'm going there myself.
02:17I'll show you the way if you'll give me a lift.
02:21Lift?
02:31Jose, let's go!
02:39Hey!
02:41Hey!
02:43Hey!
02:44Hey!
02:47Hey!
02:48Hey!
02:49Oh, senor!
02:50Oh, senor!
02:52Oh, sweet, ol' the giver to lift!
02:54Yes, senor.
02:55We are so tired.
02:57Pardon!
02:58Pardon, senor!
02:59Pardon!
02:59Pardon!
03:02Senor, you are all right, sir.
03:05Senor, you are all right.
03:07It's all right.
03:09Oh, you're done.
03:10It's all right.
03:12Here's your questions.
03:17in there. Oh, thank you. We're very glad to have you in the army, Mr. Lamar. Oh, I only
03:22joined because Dorothy likes uniforms. And besides, I understand you need more generals.
03:29Generals? Oh, yes, yes. Well, we'll take very good care of you, General. Will you step right
03:36this way? I only expect to be in the army, you know, a few days until Dorothy likes me.
03:40Oh. Now, take your clothes off. I beg your pardon.
03:47You heard me. Take them off. How dare you? I don't even know your name.
03:54My name is Michael Collins, and take them off.
04:13Ha, ha, ha.
04:17This is so much.
04:20The tie. Now, don't be so contrary. Come here. Come here. What is that thing? A chest protector
04:47or something, can't you? A fella can't ever see it. Hey, wait a minute. Wait a minute.
04:53You're the one to get addressed, not me. There's no dignity in the place at all.
04:59Not the... Oh. Oh, no.
05:03Oh.
05:08Get this. Get this coat off.
05:11The last thing. I do. I... I...
05:16Doc! Doc!
05:20Now!
05:24What's going on here?
05:26He won't take his clothes off.
05:29Oh, a tough guy, eh?
05:31Let go of that.
05:32Let go.
05:38Now, listen.
05:39We can't stand for any of this nonsense.
05:40Get them off.
05:41Come on.
05:42Look out, Doc.
05:43I want you.
05:43I know, but listen.
05:44Come on.
05:45Listen.
05:46Wait a minute.
05:46I'm a cat.
05:47I'm a cat.
05:47I'm a cat.
05:48You're going to hear from the general about it, because they don't want to stand for it.
06:03I'll tell you this now.
06:04You're going to get your clothes off if it's the last thing I drink.
06:07The doctor isn't going to stand for that.
06:09Wait a minute.
06:15Get quiet.
06:16You in here.
06:16What do you think this is?
06:17When will I get out of this?
06:19Turn him around.
06:20I'll tell my husband.
06:21That's all right.
06:22General, listen.
06:23All right.
06:31You're practically in the army now.
06:47Listen, darling, to your little Annabelle.
07:02I have something you would like to hear.
07:05Even if the daisies won't, I'm going to tell.
07:08While I serenade to you, my dear, your eyes are like taillights at night.
07:17They're red, but they're not very bright.
07:20And your beautiful nose has the blush of a rose.
07:25It's a whale of a thing.
07:27Watch her now.
07:27There she glows.
07:29Your lips are as liquid as glue.
07:32It's a wonder that words can come through.
07:36Though you're low in the ranks, you've got dough in the banks.
07:42That is why I am falling for you.
07:45Your lips are as bold as your knees.
07:50Your cheeks look just like rope for cheese.
07:55Your teeth are not quite like the stars shining bright.
07:59But I'll bet 50 bucks they come out every night.
08:03Your eyes are like oysters and stew.
08:06Flatterer.
08:07And your nose interferes with your view.
08:12When you smile like a swoon, you're a jerk, you're a goon.
08:17So I'll just have the last dance with you.
08:37I'll just have the last dance with you.
09:07I'll just have the last dance with you.
09:37I'll just have the last dance.
09:38I'll just have the last dance.
09:39Come on.
09:40Oh, there you go.
09:43Come on!
09:44The End
10:14Gosh, I'm glad to see you.
10:26Hello.
10:27How about a little dinner and a show?
10:29No, thank you. I'm on duty at the hospital.
10:31Can I come and visit you?
10:32Certainly not. Only patients are allowed.
10:35If I was a patient, would you nurse me?
10:37If you were a patient.
10:42If I was a patient.
10:44If I was a patient.
11:14Oh my goodness.
11:34You're hurt.
11:35Oh my, I'll take you to the hospital
11:39Oh, just relax
12:05Don't go away
12:12Oh, poor darling
12:31Relax
12:34Hi, it's all dark and chubby
12:47I'm off duty tonight
12:49If you want to take me to a show or dance
12:50Help! Help!
12:57Oh, damn
12:58Oh!
13:04Well, I did a pretty good job
13:09I don't know whether your leg is broken or not
13:11But when the doctor arrives, he'll say he couldn't do any better than I did
13:14My goodness
13:15You certainly got yourself all banged up, didn't you?
13:18Well, it was worth it
13:19To get in here where you could take care of me
13:22Oh, I'm sorry
13:23But I have to take care of our head butcher
13:25He's had a nervous breakdown
13:26He imagines everyone as a side of beef
13:28And tries to make steaks out of them
13:30Oh, a cut-up
13:31Oh, good luck
13:33Are you going?
13:34I'm sorry, I'm off
13:35Don't you worry
13:37I'll take care of you
13:38Like you've never been taken care of before
13:40Yee-hoo!
13:42Oh
13:42I think you need more weight
13:46Let's see
13:48What could I use?
13:50Oh, that picture
13:51Don't go away
14:00Now, if I could make a loop in here
14:07And patch that picture
14:09Gee
14:14Hey, hey, hey
14:18What are you doing?
14:20Hey
14:20Hey, hey
14:21Hey, stop playing games
14:23Now, get me out of this
14:25Hey, wait
14:26Hey, somebody come and get
14:27What do you think I am, Tarzan?
14:32Lift them up
14:33Lift them up
14:34Get me off the bed
14:35Hey, wait, wait
14:36Don't pull them down
14:39Hold them
14:39So I can get this rope off my hand
14:41All right, you can let them go now
14:48Help!
14:49Oh!
14:50Oh, my leg!
14:51Get me down!
14:52Get me loose from here!
14:53Oh!
14:54Let me down

14:59Oh, I wish I was there, Robert
15:01Hey, hey
15:01Look, look
15:02I don't think my leg is broken
15:04If you'll just cut me loose
15:05I'll go home
15:06Hey, the rope is foul
15:10All right, yeah, yeah
15:11Get me loose!
15:12He!
15:13Ah!
15:13He!
