00:00:00The End
00:01:30Washington, D.C.
00:01:39Here in our nation's capital, the hallowed halls of America's history echo with the names and deeds of our country's leaders.
00:01:46Lincoln, Washington, Jefferson.
00:02:21Sweet. Which one is it?
00:02:22The third girl.
00:02:28Darling, you were wonderful.
00:02:31Goodbye now.
00:03:04Everybody will be here.
00:03:06The vice president, the Argentine polo team, Admiral Bowden, and Mickey Rooney.
00:03:11That jockey you liked at Pimlico?
00:03:13Oh, dear. It's been that kind of a day.
00:03:14And the Maharani.
00:03:15Don't forget, she pronounces the country Stravang-Bongoli.
00:03:19Stravang-Bongoli.
00:03:19And her companion's name is Lally Rijon-Poor.
00:03:22And Mrs. Bullbro is no longer Mrs. Bullbro.
00:03:24She's Mrs. Kensington now.
00:03:26Really, quite a remarkable list.
00:03:27Only two refusals out of 64.
00:03:29Your father wanted to invite Senators Heller and Clark, but I said no.
00:03:33They're investigating each other.
00:03:34Mr. and Mrs. Van Johnson's own to say they'll be here.
00:03:37Oh, thank you, Arthur.
00:03:38And Ruth Pearson's column was on inflation.
00:03:41And Mrs. Preston Pratt III called.
00:03:43Ruth Pearson what?
00:03:43Who?
00:03:44Mrs. Preston Pratt III.
00:03:45That's her Squasnick Island woman.
00:03:46Oh.
00:03:47Knew you met your ex-husband up there.
00:03:48Practically invited herself.
00:03:49Well, keep her away from me.
00:03:50I prefer not to relive my honeymoon.
00:03:53Oh.
00:03:54Where?
00:03:55Oh, hello, Catherine.
00:03:57How are you, darling?
00:03:58Honey, Miss Biddy.
00:03:59Hello.
00:04:00How nice to see you.
00:04:02Well, good evening, Admiral.
00:04:04Oh, hello, Kennedy.
00:04:05Oh, what a lovely colour.
00:04:06How are you tonight?
00:04:07Wonderful to see you.
00:04:09Oh, Drew, Drew, darling, I loved every key in your typewriter today.
00:04:12You handle inflation.
00:04:13I can't.
00:04:13Easy, darling.
00:04:15Oh, did I burn you?
00:04:16No, obviously you'd like to, wouldn't you, darling?
00:04:17Oh, you look positively rad.
00:04:19Where's that fabulous van?
00:04:20He's just finishing a scene at the Smithsonian Museum.
00:04:23But he'll be here, won't he?
00:04:23Oh, yes, he said he would, provided they don't stuff him and mount him.
00:04:26Oh, Evie, you're a riot.
00:04:27I'll stop at this party.
00:04:29We never miss one of those parties, not because we like them.
00:04:33We're afraid to.
00:04:34Oh, how do you do this, Rauchampur?
00:04:37Do you find our country very different from your own Straffling and Borgia?
00:04:40Yes.
00:04:41Oh, how interesting.
00:04:45Elsa, darling.
00:04:46So the senator held the floor three hours, eh?
00:04:49What was he speaking about?
00:04:51He didn't say.
00:04:53Oh, lovely party, Mrs. McBean.
00:04:56I want you to meet Senator Holbrook.
00:04:58Oh, how do you do?
00:04:58I'll be looking forward to this.
00:04:59Good evening.
00:05:00Good evening.
00:05:01How are you?
00:05:01And I'm Senator Reynolds, your father.
00:05:04Oh, now don't let that get around.
00:05:05Not too much water, Henry.
00:05:16Yes, sir, Mr. McBean.
00:05:17Mr. Andrew, we're sure glad to see you home again.
00:05:20It's good to be here, Artie.
00:05:22We're sure glad to have you back.
00:05:24I'm glad to be back, Jim.
00:05:25How are you, Freddie?
00:05:26Hi, Mr. McBean.
00:05:27Daddy's back.
00:05:27Good enough.
00:05:28We had a terrible time trying to get Angus to eat.
00:05:30Really?
00:05:31Oh, he's so blue, he won't even chase the mailman anymore.
00:05:37I guess it's the same cast, huh?
00:05:39Same old cast.
00:05:40A little bit more brass, maybe.
00:05:41Maybe last week.
00:05:43Harmony this week.
00:05:44Now, tell Mrs. McBean, did you hear, sir?
00:05:45No, no, don't disturb her.
00:05:46I just slipped in this way to pick up a few things I forgot.
00:05:49Mrs. McBean, the Argentine polo team is ready.
00:05:52Oh, excuse me.
00:05:53That's what I like.
00:05:53Men in numbers.
00:05:54Thank you, sir.
00:06:03Oh, Senator, I was just going to ask...
00:06:05Ah, Senator McBean, go inside.
00:06:14Now, hold it, please.
00:06:17Good evening, General Prager.
00:06:18Good evening, Henry.
00:06:19Good evening, Henry.
00:06:24When did you join?
00:06:28Lieutenant, to all you civilians.
00:06:31Well, hello, Ned.
00:06:33Glad to see you, Jones.
00:06:33Oh, Skye, darling, late for your own party.
00:06:36I thought only women liked to make entrances.
00:06:38Phyllis, sweetie, what on earth have you joined?
00:06:40The United States Army, Angel.
00:06:41You've no doubt heard about us.
00:06:43Oh, terribly sorry, darling, but we just learned now that we're dashing off to Paris.
00:06:48Paris?
00:06:49Yes, isn't that a lovely coincidence?
00:06:51We're all in shape.
00:06:52I don't doubt it.
00:06:54Joe, darling, if you have any more sweet things to say, you'd better say them fast.
00:06:57We're catching our plane in an hour.
00:07:00But we'll do at the British Embassy for dinner.
00:07:02I'm sorry to have to steal your guest of honor away, Joe, but Europe needs straightening out.
00:07:06Oh, lots of things need straightening out.
00:07:09Oh, thank you.
00:07:11You'll excuse us.
00:07:18Angus.
00:07:19Angus, oh, man.
00:07:20Oh, boy.
00:07:22Well, well.
00:07:23What the matter, old boy?
00:07:24Didn't they invite you either?
00:07:26Well, don't you worry.
00:07:27You're not missing anything.
00:07:28No, sir.
00:07:29No, sir.
00:07:30You helped me hunt for my books, huh?
00:07:32Darling, General Prager asked for Phyllis in the setup, not me.
00:07:35It's just a coincidence.
00:07:36And such a cozy one.
00:07:38Well, I hope the three of you will be very happy in your Paris garret.
00:07:52You dropped your ball.
00:07:54Now, where did you drop from?
00:07:55Tom, how's your cribbage?
00:07:57Fine, Andy.
00:07:58Come on.
00:07:59We need a new member of the zoo.
00:08:01Come on.
00:08:01Say hello to Joe.
00:08:02No, no, thank you.
00:08:07Hello, Joe.
00:08:10Hello, Andrew.
00:08:13Well, I guess it's up to me.
00:08:15I thought you were in the army, Andy.
00:08:17I am.
00:08:17Hello, Phyllis.
00:08:18Joe, I'm missing a couple of books I need in my work.
00:08:22I'm making some tests, you know, testing.
00:08:25But don't let me disturb.
00:08:26What books, Andrew?
00:08:27Well, The Rubber Coating of Fabrics by Schweck and Wool in the Arctic Under Stress and Strain.
00:08:32What's he doing here?
00:08:33Stressing and straining.
00:08:35Well, those books are around here somewhere, Andy.
00:08:38I just saw them recently.
00:08:39Well, thanks, Tom.
00:08:40You folks will excuse me.
00:08:41I know.
00:08:42Oh, well.
00:08:43Oh, yes.
00:08:46He's looking so much better and still very attractive.
00:08:49I guess we'd better think about going, Skye.
00:08:51I'll find our general.
00:08:53Yes, yes.
00:08:54You don't want to miss Paris in the spring, the Eiffel Tower, and Phyllis in bloom.
00:09:03Darling, I lock my door every night.
00:09:06Oh, which side will she be on?
00:09:08This is a sign that it's straight from heaven for you and me.
00:09:11Oh?
00:09:12Plains leave every half hour for Paris.
00:09:15And our little garret.
00:09:16Can't you see us now walking along the same hand in hand?
00:09:19I can, but Father can't.
00:09:21Oh, well, then.
00:09:23Now, Skye, do you really want me to come?
00:09:25Because if you're still in the playing the field mood, I'm not playing.
00:09:29If it's anything that I like, it's a good question.
00:09:36There's your answer.
00:09:37Mm-hmm.
00:09:38Excuse me.
00:09:42They weren't in the library, and I thought they might be under there.
00:09:46Excuse me.
00:09:49Oh, here.
00:09:54I wondered where this was.
00:09:57Hold that, will you?
00:09:58Hold it back.
00:09:59Be good, Angus.
00:10:00Now, if I could just find the other lenses.
00:10:02You're talking about those little glass things.
00:10:04They're upstairs in the linen closet in an old cold cream jar.
00:10:08Well, the books must be somewhere.
00:10:10Couldn't you go out and buy two new copies?
00:10:12The rubber coating of fabrics, yes.
00:10:14But wool in the Arctic on distress and strain, I wrote myself.
00:10:17Then write another.
00:10:20Oh, darling, this is terrible.
00:10:22I haven't seen you since you were a bride.
00:10:24I can see you now in that pink dress under my big elm.
00:10:26And there's the groom.
00:10:27Oh, Andrew, I must kiss you.
00:10:28Oh, Martha, you're a vision.
00:10:30Oh, what a pretty sign.
00:10:31Oh, thank you.
00:10:32What are you doing in our nation's capital?
00:10:33Seeing my senator.
00:10:34Now, you remember that dirt road through the woods to the beach.
00:10:37You should.
00:10:37You're always on it.
00:10:38Well, some off-islanders have carried over a truckload of tar and gravel.
00:10:41I said, Senator, we'll have no eyesore modern roads on Susquehanna.
00:10:44Well, bully for our side.
00:10:46How'd you get off the island?
00:10:47Row all the way?
00:10:48Speaking of rowing, what really happened the night that you said you rowed around the island?
00:10:51Oh, Martha, this is Colonel Fairchild.
00:10:53This is Mrs. Preston Pratt.
00:10:54The colonel's going to NATO.
00:10:55How do you do?
00:10:56Keep your eye on those foreigners.
00:10:57Well, what happened?
00:10:58Well, Martha, you see, I had to row all night because it was a very strong undercurrent.
00:11:02Then what was she doing with those pine needles in her hair?
00:11:04Did I tell you the colonel was going to NATO?
00:11:06Yes.
00:11:07Oh, do you two still go on those picnics together?
00:11:09By the way, what did you do with my skillet?
00:11:11Oh, I put that in the hall closet with the blankets and the thermoses.
00:11:13But about the pine needles, Martha...
00:11:15Andrew and I are divorced.
00:11:17Oh, well, where's your nearest phone?
00:11:19Because before I go, I must telephone the Department of Agriculture.
00:11:21Japanese beetles are ruining our lovely elves, you know.
00:11:24Oh, you should say our day is in the fall, but you'll be in later.
00:11:26Martha, the first door to the right, she'll find it there.
00:11:32Martha's a lot of fun when you get to know her.
00:11:36I should be embarrassed, but I'm only annoyed.
00:11:39Don't be, my dear.
00:11:41That's the old life.
00:11:42Paris is the new.
00:11:43When do we start living it?
00:11:53Come along, Colonel.
00:11:54Fort Sumter has just been fired upon.
00:11:56Think of me, darling, when I'm in the thicket thing.
00:11:59Sailor Gare, Joe.
00:12:00Don't get lonesome.
00:12:01We'll be commuting.
00:12:03Good night, Senator.
00:12:11Now, you cable me.
00:12:12Shave Headquarters, Paris, when you make your reservations.
00:12:16These open arms will be waiting for you at Arlie Field.
00:12:19Hmm.
00:12:19What a cute trick, turning up after two months unannounced.
00:12:33You could see I was giving a party, couldn't you?
00:12:35You could count the cars outside, couldn't you?
00:12:37I didn't have the time.
00:12:38Well, you should have come in the front door like everyone else.
00:12:40And worn your uniform.
00:12:41I'm wearing it.
00:12:42You mean to say you didn't accept the colonel seat?
00:12:45I can do the same job in tweeds.
00:12:46And when I'm finished, you get back to the plant in my research.
00:12:49Now, if I upset anything, I'm sorry.
00:12:51Upset anything?
00:12:53You mean sneaking in the back door, skulking around, spying, reliving our courtship with
00:12:56Mrs. Preston Pratt?
00:12:57I couldn't relive it with you, could I?
00:12:59Keep your voice down.
00:12:59Doesn't it strike you as being rather symbolic that the Japanese Beatles are destroying our
00:13:03elm tree?
00:13:03Yes, since our marriage fell apart at the same time.
00:13:06Hamburger Island, how coy could we get?
00:13:07Oh, we got pretty coy.
00:13:09That's the same night that you suggested we wear matching suits.
00:13:11As I recall, you bought a set of him and her towels.
00:13:13Well, that was a mistake, and I made a lot of others, too, like thinking you'd be the
00:13:16same girl here as you were on that island.
00:13:18Oh, well, of course, you didn't turn out to be a big disappointment, loading the dinner
00:13:21table with those fascinating fabric engineers.
00:13:23What are you talking about?
00:13:23Now, Andrew, let's take a silk thread and cross it with a bit of nylon thread and see what
00:13:26we get.
00:13:27Well, I know what I got.
00:13:28Ford, all right, go do your research in Paris.
00:13:30Chase after your gingerbread colonel.
00:13:32Well, you'll be delighted to ringmaster this circus you're running, but you'd better keep
00:13:35the net up.
00:13:36Someday you'll fall flat on your face.
00:13:38Now, how dare you talk to me like that?
00:13:39Oh, Pepe, Baroness, you're not leaving.
00:13:42What, no caviar?
00:13:43Henry, another bucket for the Baroness.
00:13:46Take your loud mouth and your junk out of this house.
00:13:48I'll be charmed, but you keep the junk.
00:13:50I should have caught on when that was taken.
00:13:51Anybody call those lousy things hamburgers?
00:13:53Hypocrite?
00:13:54You said they were cute at the time?
00:13:55They were burned at the time.
00:13:59Ademisa.
00:13:59Keep up that mess.
00:14:10I'll take a dozen of those just to remind me of how lucky I am.
00:14:14Sorry, Tom.
00:14:15So long.
00:14:19The earliest reservation day after tomorrow.
00:14:23Well, all right, that'll do.
00:14:24Yes, yes, Joe McBain.
00:14:27Your boss knows me.
00:14:27Senator Reynolds' daughter.
00:14:30I'll send my man for the ticket.
00:14:33Bye.
00:14:36What's this?
00:14:39I thought you might want to reframe it.
00:14:41I do.
00:14:42You were both in good voice tonight.
00:14:47Keep the net up.
00:14:48Another bucket for the Baroness.
00:14:50Oh, Father, how could I have ever been caught so off guard?
00:14:54Blinded by summer moonlight, toasting those sandy marshmallows.
00:14:57That big elm tree.
00:14:59Don't you ever let me go on another holiday without first checking...
00:15:02Not even to Paris?
00:15:04Father, this is different.
00:15:06Yes, I know.
00:15:08You want to protect your interests, but do you have to chase after him?
00:15:13Well, I'd better.
00:15:15Before that vulture Phyllis gets her claws into him.
00:15:18Oh, what a sweet setup for her.
00:15:20His office wife.
00:15:22Can't you see her now looking so chicly patriotic as she bends close to pour his coffee?
00:15:27You think, yes?
00:15:28First Lieutenant Phyllis Trumbull.
00:15:31Good grief.
00:15:32If she got a commission as a First Lieutenant, I should be a general.
00:15:37Why not?
00:15:39Why not?
00:15:41Nowadays, many a man's head is turned by a pretty uniform.
00:15:45Are you inferring I should join the Army?
00:15:48Why, it seems to me that would solve your myriad problems.
00:15:52You're kidding.
00:15:54I'm confident that my daughter, with her superior leadership qualities,
00:15:58could top anything Lieutenant Phyllis had to offer.
00:16:02And you could get me assigned to Europe.
00:16:05Yeah.
00:16:06Then you could work the day shift as well as the night shift.
00:16:10It's perfect.
00:16:11Oh, now, Father, I'm not greedy.
00:16:13You know that.
00:16:13I don't mind starting as a major or a captain and working up on my own merits.
00:16:17Why, there's no telling.
00:16:19You might be that first woman general.
00:16:22Even president.
00:16:23Oh, I'll let you be president first.
00:16:27Oh, now, Father, you'll take care of all the red tape and getting the commission, that sort of thing?
00:16:31Roger.
00:16:32And I couldn't be proud of him.
00:16:33Say, I'm not rushing into this thing, am I?
00:16:35You are.
00:16:36And you'd better.
00:16:37The age limit is 35.
00:16:39Now, you know perfectly well that I'm only...
00:16:4035.
00:16:42You call the beeper, Omar.
00:16:45They'll take care of everything while I close up the house.
00:16:50Hello.
00:16:50Hello, TWA.
00:16:52Oh, this is Senator Reynolds' daughter again.
00:16:54I'd like to cancel that reservation I made for Paris.
00:16:57Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:16:57I'm still going, but I'm going another way.
00:17:00The Army's sending me.
00:17:02Bye-bye.
00:17:03Bye.
00:17:04While 230 miles to the north was another woman furthering the female cause,
00:17:14making history of a different kind, prominent, and a leader in her field.
00:17:20Hold it.
00:17:21Still.
00:17:23That's fine, honey child.
00:17:25Now, one for Halloween.
00:17:27But this is April Fool's Day.
00:17:29Magazine publicity.
00:17:31You know, you make them months in advance.
00:17:33Uh-uh, Mr. Gettleman.
00:17:35And speaking of love, honey,
00:17:36you'll love to meet a friend I got coming over here.
00:17:39Now, I thought maybe if you're not tied down for dinner tonight...
00:17:42But you know, I never eat before a performance.
00:17:44It shows.
00:17:45Not even with my chief backer?
00:17:47Why, we wouldn't be in business if it wasn't for Nicola Horace.
00:17:50Now, there's such a thing as courtesy, isn't there?
00:17:52Well, I guess so.
00:17:52I'll think about it.
00:17:54That's my little love bug.
00:17:55All right, strike a pose.
00:18:01Glad to see you.
00:18:02Come on.
00:18:02Step right over here.
00:18:03Danger O'Dowd, I'd like to present my best friend,
00:18:06Mr. Nicola Horace.
00:18:07Danger?
00:18:08You don't scare me a bit.
00:18:11I'd like you to go to a little party with me tonight.
00:18:13How about it?
00:18:14How about the picture?
00:18:16Hey, you didn't answer my question.
00:18:18What about my party?
00:18:19You can be the whole party.
00:18:23Danger, baby.
00:18:24Where you going, love bug?
00:18:26Oh, I'm getting away from men and love and bug!
00:18:29Miss McBain!
00:18:33Miss McBain!
00:18:34Miss McBain!
00:18:36Miss McBain!
00:18:37Miss McBain!
00:18:48Miss McBain!
00:18:51What a missa.
00:18:52Must you make all that racket?
00:18:54Mrs. McBain, you'll have to wake up.
00:18:57Oh?
00:18:58You'll have to wake up.
00:18:59You're joining the army at 11.
00:19:01Now hurry.
00:19:03Oh, I am.
00:19:11Oh, good morning.
00:19:13I'm Joe McBain.
00:19:14Did General Bradley phone you?
00:19:15No.
00:19:16He hasn't called me all morning.
00:19:19But, uh, Lieutenant Colmar in his office phoned and explained that you are single, you have
00:19:24all the qualifications, and your desire to join.
00:19:26Yes, yes.
00:19:27And the sooner the better.
00:19:27I've got a million things to do before I get off.
00:19:29Henry.
00:19:30Birth certificate.
00:19:31And I'd like that back.
00:19:33Diplomas.
00:19:34College of Fine Arts.
00:19:36Lucerne Academy for Young Ladies.
00:19:37Miss Farcroft's Connecticut.
00:19:38Oh, uh, Henry.
00:19:39While I'm tied up here for a few minutes, will you go to Brentano's and pick me up these books?
00:19:43Almanac de Goutha.
00:19:44Right.
00:19:44Dining out in Paris.
00:19:45I fed royal stomachs by chef.
00:19:48And then, uh, go along to General Bradley's office and have him give you an officer's guide
00:19:52and any little pamphlets that he may have on NATO and shape.
00:19:55Headquarters.
00:19:56Well, now, what do we do next?
00:19:59You fill out these papers in that room.
00:20:01Oh, you make them out for me, will you, dear?
00:20:03Very well.
00:20:05Uh, you don't mind signing them?
00:20:08Oh, no.
00:20:08No, not at all.
00:20:11Please sit down, Mrs. McBain.
00:20:15Now, we must have the names of five character references we can call.
00:20:20Oh, oh, certainly.
00:20:21Uh, Anna Rosenberg, Assistant Secretary of Defense.
00:20:25General Omar Bradley.
00:20:27Admiral Collins.
00:20:28And General Hoyt Vandenberg.
00:20:31That's four.
00:20:33Oh.
00:20:33Oh, and the President.
00:20:36Of the United States, that is.
00:20:38I've got Miss Carnegie for you.
00:20:59Oh, good.
00:21:00Hello, hello, Harry, darling.
00:21:02Well, I'm flying overseas in a matter of hours, so you must rush those uniforms.
00:21:06And take a little fullness out of the skirts, will you, dear?
00:21:08No, no, never mind about the captain's bars.
00:21:10I've ordered those at Tiffany's.
00:21:12Bye now.
00:21:12Bye.
00:21:13Bye.
00:21:13Any insanity in your family?
00:21:20Well, hardly.
00:21:21My father's a senator.
00:21:24I, Colonel McBain, do solemnly swear or affirm that I will serve them honorably and faithfully
00:21:33against all their enemies, according to the regulations and the uniform code of military justice.
00:21:48Of course, I'm thrilled, father, but why do I order St. Fort Lee, Virginia, when I'm going to carry?
00:21:53Oh, and me a full amount of it.
00:21:54You know the army, and it's red tape.
00:21:55Well, I'm going to take everything with the reply, direct from there.
00:21:58Oh, oh, Henry, I'll wire you when to pick up the car.
00:22:01And, Aunt Amisa, be sure everything is covered when you close the house.
00:22:05And make sure also that my ski things are put in the trunks that are sent to Paris.
00:22:08Yes, ma'am.
00:22:09Oh, Miss Gorin, be certain that everyone here gets a check for a month.
00:22:12I will.
00:22:13I could bawl.
00:22:14I just can't believe all this.
00:22:16Oh, now, now, now.
00:22:17Josephine, remember you're a Reynolds.
00:22:20Ouch.
00:22:21Oh, I'm shocked.
00:22:22I've been inoculated for everything with Phyllis Trumbull.
00:22:24Now, father, I'm not going to worry about you on your vacation.
00:22:26Right.
00:22:27You just worry about all the fish I'm going to catch.
00:22:29They're not going to like it at all.
00:22:30Oh, now, be a good soldier.
00:22:36Bye, Mel.
00:22:51Look there, a man.
00:22:53I love every cannonball.
00:23:05But to you, General, I love every cannonball.
00:23:07But to you, General, I love every cannonball.
00:23:11Slow down, they're being pursued.
00:23:22Hey, welcome to Port Fleet.
00:23:24I think he's a smash-up.
00:23:26See, they do have men here.
00:23:28Thousands of them, but only one that really matters.
00:23:30Sergeant Jackson, Quartermaster Corps, United States Army.
00:23:34Yay!
00:23:35Yay!
00:23:35I got it here.
00:23:36And hey, hey, you with the big brown eyes.
00:23:39What do I call you?
00:23:50Hello there.
00:23:51I just came to pick up my commission.
00:23:52Where do I go, please?
00:23:54Third intersection, turn left, 19 blocks, Wack Training Center.
00:23:57Oh, thank you.
00:24:08Boy, I mean, soldier, you're in my way.
00:24:17Oh, oh, it's all right.
00:24:19You can let me pass.
00:24:20I'm one of you now.
00:24:31Could you ask them to hurry?
00:24:36Just a little.
00:24:42Oh, goodbye.
00:24:50Hello, girls.
00:24:57Say, haven't you a lovely place to train in?
00:24:59What can we do for you?
00:25:01Oh, I'm one of your brand new officers.
00:25:03Can you tell me where to go?
00:25:05One, two, three, four, one, two.
00:25:08Two Bucks, B Company.
00:25:09Thank you, darling.
00:25:10Your company will be filling in during the next 48 hours, and girls will be arriving here day and night.
00:25:36All right, select your bed.
00:25:37No privates.
00:25:44All luggage is sold in the luggage area, directly behind your bed.
00:25:47Oh.
00:25:49You won't be officially welcomed until tomorrow at 0800.
00:25:53Eight o'clock to you.
00:25:54Oh, thank you.
00:25:55In the meantime, you'll see your first guide on competition.
00:25:58All right, line up the single file.
00:26:02Come on, let's go.
00:26:04Oh, Lieutenant.
00:26:06Oh, excuse me, Sergeant.
00:26:07I seem to be lost.
00:26:08Perhaps you could help me.
00:26:09Well, perhaps I can.
00:26:10Your name and where are you from?
00:26:11Joe McBain.
00:26:12Uh, Washington.
00:26:13Uh, you see, I've just come down here.
00:26:15Oh, yes.
00:26:15It's Josephine McBain.
00:26:16Okay, McBain.
00:26:17Follow me.
00:26:23Oh, uh, dear.
00:26:25Uh, where's your luggage, McBain?
00:26:26Well, it's in the car, but where do I go?
00:26:28Well, right now you're going with us to see the parade.
00:26:31Oh, will I see someone in charge?
00:26:33Will the general be there?
00:26:34Oh, yes.
00:26:35He'll be there, McBain.
00:26:36Good.
00:26:36Say, I know you.
00:26:37You're Joe McBain, that famous, uh, Washington madam.
00:26:41Oh, I read time.
00:26:43Subscription?
00:26:44Hmm?
00:26:45Oh, yes, I read that big article on you.
00:26:47Say, are you here, uh, incognito?
00:26:50Well, let's say temporarily.
00:26:52Well, your secret's buried right here.
00:26:53Well, then I know it's safe.
00:26:55Well, I'm Claire Schneiderman.
00:26:56Uh, how are you?
00:26:56I'm Sergeant Wayne.
00:26:57Follow me.
00:26:58Oh, sure.
00:26:59Here.
00:26:59Oh, my God.
00:27:02Oh, uh, uh.
00:27:21Squad Hulk.
00:27:27Wait.
00:27:27Everybody stop talking.
00:27:29Turn around and face me.
00:27:30At ease.
00:27:33At ease.
00:27:44General Prentice, isn't it?
00:27:45I'm Joe McBain.
00:27:47Remember?
00:27:47The Pentagon parking lot.
00:27:48I met you there with my father, Senator Reynolds and General Bradley.
00:27:52Oh, how do you do?
00:27:54Oh, Mark knew I was coming down here today.
00:27:56He wanted me to give you his best regard.
00:27:59And, uh, this is Colonel Hubbard.
00:28:01She's the commanding officer of the WACS.
00:28:02Oh, well, how do you do?
00:28:04How are you, Mrs. McBain?
00:28:05Oh, well, this is a nice surprise.
00:28:07I did want to meet you eventually.
00:28:09It looks as though you're doing a wonderful job here.
00:28:12If you'll stay over, perhaps you'll have lunch with me tomorrow.
00:28:14I'd enjoy showing you around the training.
00:28:16Well, I'd be delighted when I return.
00:28:18And you will give me now a rain check, won't you?
00:28:21Oh.
00:28:28I'm all mixed up in this big place.
00:28:31Where is your airport?
00:28:32Well, you go out the main gate.
00:28:34That's Route 36, you know.
00:28:35Then you turn left.
00:28:36You go down about a mile until you come to a little orange stand under some trees.
00:28:41Then just beyond that is a fork.
00:28:43Well, you don't take the fork.
00:28:44You keep...
00:28:45Excuse me, Colonel Hubbard.
00:28:47McBain has left her unit.
00:28:48Who?
00:28:49Her man.
00:28:50I think we'd better join the others.
00:28:52Oh, protocol.
00:28:58I'll see you later, folks.
00:28:59I'll see you later.
00:29:18Hey!
00:29:33I'm tedious from the ball.
00:29:35I'll come back later. I'm not ready.
00:29:37I'll just pack it and make like a wax.
00:29:39Well, maybe it was a gun, you know.
00:29:43All right, girls, get moving. You've got ten minutes to wash and dress.
00:29:48Miss McBain, it's time to get up.
00:29:53Arthur Mesa, must you make all that racket?
00:29:59Come on, McBain. Wake up.
00:30:01But, Sergeant, I don't have to get up.
00:30:06Oh, I'm afraid you do.
00:30:08You see, we've arranged a welcome for you.
00:30:10Oh, how sweet.
00:30:13I do hope the lovely Colonel hasn't gone to too much trouble.
00:30:16Well, you see, it isn't every day that we get someone like you.
00:30:18Oh.
00:30:19Oh, does it matter what I wear?
00:30:21No, as long as you don't wear that.
00:30:23You are cute.
00:30:25Now, let's see. Which way was that?
00:30:28...dining with the enlisted girls.
00:30:31Spending the night with a green group.
00:30:33It's been an invaluable experience. I must write farther.
00:30:35Yes, you must.
00:30:36One, two, three, four, one, two, three, four.
00:30:38Well, since I'm going to be in Bonanza abroad, I'm glad I've learned the inner working from the Army.
00:30:41I'm going to Paris. Did NATO you know?
00:30:43No, I didn't know.
00:30:44Oh, yes, yes.
00:30:46I may ask for you, darling. You've been awfully sweet.
00:30:51Oh, I'm Jo McBain. How are you, Captain Malloy?
00:30:55I suppose you've arranged everything for me, and whatever the Army says goes for me.
00:30:59Then sit down, McBain.
00:31:05Welcome to Fort Lee.
00:31:06Oh, thank you, Captain.
00:31:08I know how you must be feeling at this moment, because I once sat where you're sitting
00:31:13and wondered just what I'd gotten myself into.
00:31:16But no matter what your reasons for joining, patriotic, a desire to improve yourself,
00:31:22you'll find we're happy to have you, and the Army is anxious to find just the right job for you.
00:31:27Some of you may qualify for a leader school. Others, Officer Candidate School.
00:31:32We're here to help you, not only in your new Army career, but in personal fulfillment.
00:31:39Good luck, soldiers.
00:31:41Attention.
00:31:43Find out my tune.
00:31:47Oh, that was a sweet speech, Captain.
00:31:49I'd love a copy of that for my girls in NATO.
00:31:51Did you write it yourself?
00:31:52You'll have to excuse it, Captain.
00:31:53As you can see, McBain is a very busy woman.
00:31:55Yes, yes.
00:31:56Well, uh...
00:31:57So long now.
00:31:59Wait a minute.
00:32:00You forgot your little abner.
00:32:01But I have my shoes there in my car.
00:32:04Come on, you sad sack.
00:32:06Sergeant.
00:32:07Here's your sack.
00:32:08Take these things.
00:32:09I don't need them.
00:32:10Here.
00:32:11But I went to my doctor, and he gave me these same shots.
00:32:14I'm sure.
00:32:16Now we are both sure.
00:32:21Now, girls, will you please sit down while you wait for your interview?
00:32:34Were you excelling any sports?
00:32:36Well, I won lots of ribbons at the Pendleton Rodeo.
00:32:39I got sick and tired of pounding a tie powder all day long in a stuffy office.
00:32:43My grandfather made his money in the gold rush, looking for tourists.
00:32:47That's why I was able to go to art school in San Francisco.
00:32:50I wanted to prove I could do something other than milk cows.
00:32:53So you were a G.I. Bry, and a Lance Corporal in the Women's Auxiliary Territorial Service in the last war?
00:33:00Now, Clara, what job in the Army do you think you're best fitted for?
00:33:04Intelligence.
00:33:07And why your choice?
00:33:08Well, for some reason, gentlemen seem to take an interest in me.
00:33:11In fact, my boss in my last job, he was always...
00:33:14What job was that, Clara?
00:33:16Oh, well, I was a showgirl, and between shows where I'd go to the newsreel and see different newsreels,
00:33:21and I saw one, this new Texas Army maneuver.
00:33:24Operation Longhorn?
00:33:25Yes, where the Army actually used a girl spy.
00:33:27I thought to myself...
00:33:29I'm always thinking to myself...
00:33:31I thought, well, why not get away from all these men, see, and get with just one man?
00:33:36Who's that?
00:33:37Uncle Sam!
00:33:39Well, it's just that I feel I'd like to give my country what I've got.
00:33:44Well, counterintelligence.
00:33:46A G2.
00:33:47Yes.
00:33:48Well, it does require certain special talents.
00:33:52Do you speak any languages fluently?
00:33:54Yes, ma'am.
00:33:55English.
00:33:56I see.
00:33:59Well, my boss, Mr. Gettleman, he didn't think Clara Schneiderman was glamorous enough,
00:34:03so he gave me a new name.
00:34:04What was it?
00:34:05Danger O'Dowd.
00:34:07That's so silly.
00:34:11You won't tell any of the other girls?
00:34:14Everything is confidential.
00:34:16That's good.
00:34:18Specifically, what did you do as a showgirl?
00:34:21Wear pretty costumes?
00:34:23Yes, a green gauze and a little fruit here and there.
00:34:27A little cherries and bananas and apples, and...
00:34:30Then we'd walk around and the creeps, a gentleman, would stare right through the cherries and the bananas,
00:34:35and, you know, it's very upsetting to a girl like I.
00:34:38I just got so upset I felt like joining the French Foreign Legion.
00:34:42But they wouldn't take you, so you drank the whack instead.
00:34:45Okay.
00:34:47Now, Clara, what other experience have you had?
00:34:50Well, when I was very little, I worked in my father's garage, the Schneiderman Jiffy Toe.
00:34:56We serve you night and day.
00:34:58Garage experience.
00:34:59That's wonderful.
00:35:00We could use you in the motor pool.
00:35:01Well, you might, ma'am, but my heart wouldn't be in it like it would be in spying.
00:35:05It wouldn't?
00:35:07Hmm.
00:35:08Anything else you've done?
00:35:11Well, now, let's see, uh...
00:35:13Something else.
00:35:17Oh, I used to sit on coffee bags.
00:35:20You what?
00:35:21Well, uh, you know, with my bathing suit on and have my picture taken.
00:35:25I was Miss Coffee Bean in 1949 and 50, then Miss Avocado in 1951.
00:35:30Of course, I was sitting amongst avocados.
00:35:32Of course.
00:35:33Now, let me see if I've got this all down.
00:35:36Help father in towing cars.
00:35:39Showgirl in nightclub.
00:35:42Uh-huh.
00:35:43Sat on coffee bags and among avocados for, uh, advertising purposes.
00:35:49Preference, intelligence work.
00:35:53Correct?
00:35:54Yes.
00:35:55Correct.
00:35:58Uh, goodbye, dear.
00:36:07Look, for the fourth time, what do you want to do in the army?
00:36:10For the fourth time, I want to see someone in charge.
00:36:12Is this woman's name McBain?
00:36:14Yes, ma'am.
00:36:15Just a moment, Sergeant Taylor.
00:36:16While I check with Captain Murchison.
00:36:24Sergeant, get Captain Murchison at B Company.
00:36:26Yes, ma'am.
00:36:27What's that?
00:36:28Josephine McBain.
00:36:29Yes, she's in the new batch.
00:36:30Oh, no.
00:36:31No one told me about any VIP.
00:36:32Oh, Major Cartwright.
00:36:33No, Captain.
00:36:34There's no record here.
00:36:35Oh, she is, eh?
00:36:36I'd better call the Pentagon and check with Colonel Fulbright.
00:36:37No, no record of a commission issued with Josephine McBain.
00:36:38She's listed as private.
00:36:39Well, I'll call General Bradley's office to see if he knows anything about it.
00:36:41Oh, I see, Colonel.
00:36:42I may have been in error.
00:36:43I'll ask the general and then I'll phone you back.
00:36:44General Bradley, sir.
00:36:45Lieutenant Comar speaking.
00:36:46Yes, Lieutenant.
00:36:47Did I misunderstand you, sir, about Senator McBain's door?
00:36:48No, no record of a commission issued with Josephine McBain.
00:36:51She's listed as private.
00:36:52Well, I'll call General Bradley's office to see if he knows anything about it.
00:36:57Oh, I see, Colonel.
00:36:58I may have been in error.
00:37:00I'll ask the general and then I'll phone you back.
00:37:08General Bradley, sir.
00:37:09Lieutenant Comar speaking.
00:37:10Yes, Lieutenant.
00:37:11Did I misunderstand you, sir, about Senator McBain's daughter?
00:37:14Did he phone you about her joining the WAC?
00:37:16Senator did say something about it.
00:37:18Better locate him.
00:37:20He's fishing at, uh, Medicine Hat, Canada.
00:37:24Oh, no.
00:37:25No, thanks, General.
00:37:27No officer's training school.
00:37:30My daughter wants to start at the bottom.
00:37:33She's that kind of a girl.
00:37:37Say to you.
00:37:38Bye.
00:37:39No commission for McBain.
00:37:42Check.
00:37:43No commission.
00:37:44Josephine McBain is private McBain.
00:37:46Official.
00:37:47Thank you, Major.
00:37:48I hope it wasn't too much trouble.
00:37:54We checked officially, private McBain, and you have no commission.
00:37:57None having been applied for.
00:37:59Get on with that interview, Sergeant Taylor.
00:38:01Now, what would you like to do?
00:38:07I'd like to murder my father.
00:38:24Raise your arms, Corporal.
00:38:26This jacket appears okay.
00:38:27Hey.
00:38:28Hey.
00:38:29How about the seams there?
00:38:30They look fine.
00:38:31Small areas of perspiration.
00:38:33And a minimum weight loss.
00:38:34That's twice around the obstacle course.
00:38:36Yeah.
00:38:37You weren't taking it easy, were you, Corporal?
00:38:38Oh, no, sir.
00:38:39Gave it the works.
00:38:40Looks like McBain did know what he was talking about, sir.
00:38:42Been bragging about the synthetic thread he's cooked up.
00:38:44You've accomplished miracles in the four months you've been here.
00:38:46Well, I have to admit I started thinking four years ago.
00:38:49Now I'm going back to the factory and think some more.
00:38:57You haven't told him yet?
00:38:58No, sir.
00:39:00So, uh, Andrew, we're in a bit of a spot.
00:39:05General Grail of the Alaskan Command has requested 500 more works on the double.
00:39:11That means Arctic clothing.
00:39:13The best stuff we can rush off.
00:39:15We?
00:39:16You mean if I leave now I'm undermining our national defense?
00:39:20Exactly.
00:39:24When are you going to talk this guy back into uniforms so I can order him around?
00:39:28Sergeant.
00:39:33Yes.
00:39:34We'll need six girls by Saturday, assorted types, ages, and shapes.
00:39:40Will you volunteer for the hazardous mission of finding them?
00:39:43Oh, yes, sir.
00:39:44Anything for the quartermaster testing board, sir.
00:39:50One, two, three, four.
00:39:52One, two, three, four.
00:39:54One, two, three, four.
00:39:56Four, three, two, four.
00:39:58At ease.
00:40:00Fall out.
00:40:01McBain.
00:40:03You said fall out, didn't you?
00:40:04For the last three weeks I've explained that you can't fall out from an at ease position.
00:40:08Oh, a little trick.
00:40:10How cute.
00:40:12A word of advice, McBain.
00:40:13If you want to learn how to be a general, you first have to learn how to be a private.
00:40:17If you can't figure things out, then watch Schneiderman.
00:40:20Schneiderman, take McBain over there and drill her for another hour.
00:40:23Yes, Sergeant.
00:40:24The two.
00:40:25Attention.
00:40:26Private McBain and Private Schneiderman.
00:40:27Fall up.
00:40:28One, two, three, four.
00:40:29One, two, three, four.
00:40:30One, two, three, four.
00:40:31One, two, three, four.
00:40:32One, two, three, four.
00:40:33One, two, three, four.
00:40:34One, two, three, four.
00:40:35One, two, three, four.
00:40:36McBain, this is nothing personal, but you don't put any spirit into it.
00:40:39Now, let me show you how to pivot.
00:40:41Sure.
00:40:42Go ahead.
00:40:43Show me.
00:40:44Okay?
00:40:45Go behind your left heel, thusly.
00:40:48And your shoulders, likewise.
00:40:50You know, Schneiderman, you've got something I'll never...
00:40:54Look, if you don't learn how to march, our company's never going to win that green guidon.
00:40:58Is that like the Irish sweepstakes?
00:40:59No.
00:41:00It's like West Point.
00:41:01Oh.
00:41:02You see, you can only win the green guidon for superior marching, and we're going to
00:41:05win it.
00:41:06That's all.
00:41:07That's telling me.
00:41:08On your feet.
00:41:09Attention.
00:41:10Now, you've got to follow me, see?
00:41:13Left.
00:41:14Feet.
00:41:15Forward.
00:41:16March.
00:41:17Don't get too close.
00:41:20Come on, left.
00:41:21March.
00:41:22Don't push.
00:41:23Follow them right.
00:41:24March.
00:41:25Stop breathing down my neck.
00:41:26Call them right.
00:41:27March.
00:41:28One, two, three, four.
00:41:29One, two, three, four.
00:41:30One, two, three, four.
00:41:31Call them left.
00:41:32March.
00:41:33Keep it step.
00:41:34You're doing fine, Joe.
00:41:35Call them right.
00:41:36March.
00:41:37Pick up your feet, Joe.
00:41:38So, didn't General Bradley, or the Secretary of Defense, or the Vice President, or your
00:41:45father, the Senator, answer any of your letters?
00:41:49Are you sure you mailed them after you read them?
00:41:51Oh, yes.
00:41:52Well, here's something you haven't read.
00:41:53Oh, you mean the cable from your colonel friend in Paris who's aided General Frager?
00:41:58None other.
00:41:59Oh, I read that.
00:42:00Ma Cherie, you joined for me.

00:45:35Nevertheless, I'm going to pull down my shade tonight.
00:45:53Oh, gee, that's a cute suit.
00:45:55They're so different, McBain.
00:45:57I have a terrible shock for you, McBain.
00:45:59This isn't the French Riviera.
00:46:01You know, of course, that you can't wear your own suit.
00:46:04Oh, well, sergeant, you see, I have a medical problem.
00:46:06I'm allergic to army wolves and the vicious young women.
00:46:10McBain, you were rather preoccupied during Captain Murchison's welcoming speech.
00:46:14So you might have missed what she had to say about having the right attitude.
00:46:18I warn you, it's my job to help you get it.
00:46:20Come on, let's race!
00:46:22I forgot!
00:46:25I don't know how to swim!

00:46:39Huh?
00:46:40Oh, hi.
00:46:41I, uh...
00:46:43I don't know what to call you.
00:46:44I, uh...
00:46:45Can't find your insignia.
00:46:46And what should I call you before I call the MPs?
00:46:48Well, the MPs...
00:46:49Oh, we're buddy-buddy.
00:46:52No, I'll go quietly.
00:46:53All I ask is six of your girls for test subjects.
00:46:56And say that we...
00:46:57We start with you.
00:46:59Now, there are a lot of things that I'd like to ask you, Blondie.
00:47:01First, what is your full name?
00:47:04Oh, I had a good wife, and she had a good wife.
00:47:06She bought a hat.
00:47:08You're in great voice, but what about the girls?
00:47:10Oh, thank you, sir.
00:47:11I tried to pick you six different types.
00:47:13I got their home states, their wage, their ages.
00:47:15Couldn't get their measurements.
00:47:17You're slipping.
00:47:18Oh, my God.
00:47:45Here they are, sir, from all different climates.
00:47:47Private Schneiderman, New York State.
00:47:52Private North, London.
00:47:55Oh, uh, Gustafson, from Wisconsin Rapids.
00:47:59Oh, Tanako, Honolulu.

00:48:20I've got great plans for you.

00:49:00Skye!
00:49:03Better take your shovel.
00:49:06Skye, darling, where are you, Paris?
00:49:08Washington Airport.
00:49:10And exactly 29 minutes by helicopter away from my hope, your still loving arms.
00:49:15I told you we'd be commuting.
00:49:17Oh, angel, I can't wait to hear.
00:49:20Yes, it's perfect timing.
00:49:22We get our first six-hour pass this weekend.
00:49:25Oh, you naughty Parisian.
00:49:33I'll be counting the seconds.
00:49:36Yes.
00:49:37Can we load our six girls, sir?
00:49:38Captain Murchison's giving the go signal.
00:49:40Oh, sure, go ahead.
00:49:41Yes, we can have dinner.
00:49:42Well, there's a wonderful little tavern in Williamsburg.
00:49:45Yes, yes, I've got my car.
00:49:47I'm afraid I'll need one more, Captain.
00:49:49A tall, dark, sort of skinny, cold-blooded type.
00:49:53There are very important psychological aspects to this test.
00:49:58Well, Private McBain has her first pass coming today, sir.
00:50:01But if you request her, then the needs of the service come first.
00:50:06Consider her requesting.
00:50:10I won't promise to bring him back.
00:50:21We're living, girls.
00:50:22We're living.
00:50:22You keep prepping.
00:50:23Next time, I might take you.
00:50:25Please give this to Colonel Fairchild when he asks for me.
00:50:28Joe McBain.
00:50:29Tell him I'm on special duty at the corner now for testing land.
00:50:35Are they all in there?
00:50:36All present and accounted for, sir.
00:50:39Set it for Big Delta.
00:50:40Big Delta?
00:50:41Yes, sir.
00:50:43And make it 20 below zero.
00:50:4520 below zero.
00:50:46Right, sir.
00:50:53Girls, you're now near Anchorage, Alaska, and the temperature is 20 degrees below zero.
00:50:59Can you hear me if you can't wave your arms?
00:51:02Fine.
00:51:03Now, you've just climbed out of a cargo plane that's crash-landed.
00:51:06And in order to survive, you're going to have to pitch a tent, make a fire, and cook a meal before nightfall or freeze to death.
00:51:13Now, number one, you light the fire.
00:51:16Number two, unpack the weapons to discourage any wolves in the neighborhood.
00:51:20Three, four, and five, put up the tent.
00:51:22Number six, fill the emergency lantern with fuel.
00:51:25And number seven, unpack the flares.
00:51:28Hold it.
00:51:30Begin.
00:51:30Begin.
00:51:43Get that fire lit, one.
00:51:51Turn on the wind.
00:51:52Yes, sir.
00:52:03Number one, light that fire.
00:52:10Two, four, five, and six.
00:52:12Your face is still warm?
00:52:17Feet cold?
00:52:19Your undershirts feel too bulky, too heavy to work in?
00:52:24That's fine.
00:52:25Three, four, five, six, and seven.
00:52:28Come on out.
00:52:28Lieutenant Constable wants to buy you some coffee.
00:52:30My coffee.
00:52:31Come here, girls.
00:52:32Come here.
00:52:32And now, the sleeping bag test for wind and snow.
00:52:43Oh, uh, pardon me, uh, am I interrupting something?
00:53:01Oh, hello there.
00:53:04Colonel.
00:53:04Fairchild, I believe.
00:53:05How do you do?
00:53:07I guess I must be in the wrong place.
00:53:08Oh, no, no.
00:53:11Oh, I, uh, I'm looking for, for, uh, Mrs., for, for Joe.
00:53:15She's inside.
00:53:15There, sir.
00:53:31Oh, no.
00:53:32Come here.
00:53:37Come here.
00:53:38Oh, no.
00:53:43Come on, bring out the whole bag.
00:54:00Hey, hey, hey, Joe.
00:54:02Joe, is that you?
00:54:03I think so, darling.
00:54:05Oh, Skye, I'm so glad you're here.
00:54:08So am I, darling.
00:54:09Uh, I thought we had a...
00:54:11What are you doing in here?
00:54:13Trying to light a fire.
00:54:15Why?
00:54:15I'm supposed to cook dinner.
00:54:17Oh, but, darling, now look, we got a date.
00:54:19I don't want to eat here.
00:54:20Oh, no, it was just a test, sweetheart.
00:54:23Oh, I nearly forgot.
00:54:25I picked up a little something for you on the route of the page.
00:54:28Oh, darling, that's so sweet, darling.
00:54:30See, that zipper's just no good at 40 below.
00:54:32Neither I.
00:54:34Well, now that you've done your bit for the glorious future of the Alaskan sleeping bag,
00:54:38so we get out of here.
00:54:39Now we'll test the overwights, the camouflage covers.
00:54:42We'll walk...
00:54:44Number one, you're hiking from Big Delos to Point Barrow.
00:54:50Lift your feet.
00:55:00Sergeant, hit the blizzard.
00:55:02I hope it's sweet enough for all you sweet things.
00:55:15It just couldn't be sweet enough for you.
00:55:18Oh, thank you.
00:55:19How do you find the army?
00:55:20Keen?
00:55:21You know, I can help you with your studies.
00:55:23Teach you things.
00:55:24Hey, that's wonderful.
00:55:26I want to learn things.
00:55:26Especially a phonetic alphabet.
00:55:29You know, that's very hard.
00:55:30Oh, it's a cinch.
00:55:31It's A, able.
00:55:33A, able, B...
00:55:34Now, that's enough for one lesson.
00:55:36I don't want you to get brain fag.
00:55:39Do I grow on you?
00:55:40No, sir.
00:55:41Just between you, me, and Tom here, how do I offend?
00:55:55Oh, it isn't you.
00:55:56It's just that you're like all the others.
00:55:58The others?
00:55:59You mean there has been some other man before me, interested as deeply and as...
00:56:03And as physically.
00:56:04Nobody cares about my mind.
00:56:06Your mind?
00:56:06Well, I'm crazy about it now that you mention it.
00:56:08I'll bet.
00:56:09No, no kidding.
00:56:10What night can we get a discussion group together?
00:56:12Say, just you and me and Tom and Charlie here?
00:56:15Never.
00:56:16Never?
00:56:17Then this is goodbye.
00:56:18That's right.
00:56:18Goodbye.
00:56:19You go your way, danger O'Dowd, and I'll go mine.
00:56:23Hey, where'd you get that?
00:56:25Put it down, Sergeant.
00:56:27Please, I'll just die.
00:56:28About our discussion group, it's a deal?
00:56:31That's blackmail.
00:56:32Oh, I like that one.
00:56:34It's a deal.
00:56:35It's a deal.
00:56:35Oh, let's see.
00:56:36No, no, Mommy.
00:56:38Get it.
00:56:38Children, a few calendars.
00:56:40A few calendars.
00:56:41I was very poor at the time.
00:56:42No, we didn't know.
00:56:43No.
00:56:57Cut it off.
00:56:58Let's go.
00:57:00Let's go.
00:57:03Let's go.
00:57:05Let's go.
00:57:06Come here.
00:57:07Let's check that liner.
00:57:30No penetration here.
00:57:31Looks like we made it, sir.
00:57:32Splendid.
00:57:33How'd she come through, Lieutenant?
00:57:34With flying colors.
00:57:35You made a substantial contribution to anthropometry.
00:57:38That's just ginger peachy.
00:57:40Oh, and I want to thank you.
00:57:41Two, three, four, five, six, and seven.
00:57:45And may I go now, Professor?
00:57:47And one.
00:58:01Get as close as you can, will you?
00:58:03I'm responsible for her welfare.
00:58:06I had a long talk with Colonel Fulbright this morning.
00:58:08She was very sympathetic.
00:58:10You see, you've been in the service about five weeks now.
00:58:13It's too late to be commissioned from the outside.
00:58:16But if your commanding officer okays you after observing you're doing basic, you can apply for one in three weeks.
00:58:22Three weeks?
00:58:23Observe me?
00:58:23Now, good heavens, Skye, if I haven't already demonstrated in public life...
00:58:28Darling, Paris!
00:58:29That I'm fit for leadership.
00:58:32Honey, think about our little Garrett.
00:58:33And that I'd make a good officer.
00:58:35Walking hand in hand along the scene.
00:58:38Oh, all right.
00:58:41I'll be good if it kills me.
00:58:42And it probably will.
00:58:44I'll be good at all.
00:59:14Join your group quick before the sergeant sees you.
00:59:16What?
00:59:17Uh-uh.
00:59:20Sergeant, I'm afraid some of this is my doing.
00:59:22This is Colonel Fairchild.
00:59:23He flew all the way from Paris just to witness our experiment.
00:59:26To be honest, we're old friends.
00:59:27And we plan to spend the evening together.
00:59:29Well, couldn't you make an exception?
00:59:31He's come such a distance.
00:59:32Sorry, sir.
00:59:33But we're not allowed to issue passes this late to any trainee.
00:59:36How did you judge subjects make up?
00:59:40We gave her all the slimes.
00:59:41There's no place like Gnome's.
00:59:43Huh.
00:59:43McBain, she won the endurance record.
00:59:45She stayed in longer than all of us.
00:59:47Well.
00:59:48Well done, McBain.
00:59:50Girls were scheduled to go out on the rifle range at 1500 on Monday.
00:59:53As you know, the actual firing is voluntary.
00:59:56Okay, Sergeant, you can put me down.
00:59:57Oh, me too.
00:59:58Me too.
00:59:59Oh, fine.
01:00:00Fine, all of you.
01:00:01Excluding McBain?
01:00:04Including McBain.
01:00:06Okay.
01:00:07You have one minute to light down.
01:00:09Hurry up.
01:00:09Hey, come on, Joe.
01:00:10Come on.
01:00:12Good girl.
01:00:13Now, if you can stay just as sweet as you can be for the next three weeks.
01:00:16Then I must have action.
01:00:19Oh, honey, you're going to get it.
01:00:23That's my McBain.
01:00:29Your organs got a very cheeky thing, but not regulation.
01:00:43Colonel, I didn't intend to take up your whole day, but I'm sure you got a great deal out of it.
01:00:47Oh, I did, I did.
01:00:48You see, I'm very scientific-minded myself.
01:00:50Oh, I didn't know that.
01:00:51Oh, yes, yes.
01:00:52MIT, four years.
01:00:54Major in the metal edge.
01:00:55Well, that's very interesting.
01:00:56I'll carry on a few experiments myself.
01:00:58Well, well.
01:00:59I take this ignition key, for instance.
01:01:01You wouldn't think that such a tough alloy as this when submitted to a low temperature would prove brittle, would you?
01:01:06Yet it does.
01:01:08Let me show you.
01:01:15All in the interest of science, McBain.
01:01:18And yet there's so many things that are unexplained.
01:01:20Well, it's only about four miles down here at the Quartermaster Corps, country boy.
01:01:41You want I should hunt you, taxi style?
01:01:46Got him!
01:01:53Ready on the left.
01:01:58Ready on the right.
01:02:00Ready on the firing volume.
01:02:03Commence.
01:02:04Fire it.
01:02:07Space a firing.
01:02:09What's the matter, McBain?
01:02:10Well, keep that weapon pointed towards the target.
01:02:12Well, nothing.
01:02:13It's just that I had no idea there'd be so much noise.
01:02:15You want to quit?
01:02:16Oh, what, I'm having so much fun.
01:02:18Ready on the left.
01:02:20Ready on the left.
01:02:20This I had to see to believe.
01:02:22She really was through with it.
01:02:24Len, fire.
01:02:30Joe!
01:02:31I hit a bullseye.
01:02:33Great, great.
01:02:34Hey, I'm going to have to crisp her before I take her out again.
01:02:37It's nice work if you can get it.
01:02:38Hey, hey, hey!
01:02:45Get that weapon pointed towards the target.
01:02:51To the lab, James.
01:02:53I may need my armored fist.
01:02:58All right, once more, just to remind you it's gas, not Chanel No. 5.
01:03:03Oh, no.
01:03:18Hey!
01:03:22Seven weeks and she's still on her feet.
01:03:25Hey, Blondie!
01:03:26Don't sit in any poison ivy!
01:03:29Oh, are you and Colonel Fairchild going dancing in this?
01:03:32We sure are.
01:03:33What are you going to do in that?
01:03:35Wash my hair.
01:03:37Clara, put my pass in my bag, please.
01:03:39All right, but you get in on time tonight.
01:03:41You've been a good girl for six whole days.
01:03:43You'd just be good for another two weeks.
01:03:44And then when we graduate, maybe you and the Colonel, we could all be assigned to Paris together.
01:03:49Then I can do my underground work there.
01:03:51Except I can't speak French.
01:03:53Oh, well, you wouldn't have to say much.
01:03:55Why don't we make it a foursome and bring you a singing sergeant, huh?
01:03:58I don't trust him.
01:03:59No?
01:04:00You know, in our last discussion group together, nobody turned up in him.
01:04:04Voila.
01:04:05I dread to ask, but what did you talk about?
01:04:07Well, part of the time, you and that ex-husband of yours told the sergeant you had another date with the colonel tonight.
01:04:12You didn't.
01:04:13I...
01:04:14You did?
01:04:18Up you go.
01:04:19Come on, Harry.
01:04:20All right, big girl.
01:04:21Do you suppose they're looking for us?
01:04:25Well, they can't pull that good-of-the-service stuff on me.
01:04:29Come on!
01:04:31Isn't this fun?
01:04:32Oh, just great.
01:04:33You and that yak, yak, yak of yours.
01:04:35When are you going to start buying for our side?
01:04:37Over you go!
01:04:38How long is this scientific marathon going to last?
01:04:42Until we determine the density of the cement and ensure a perfect lamination of the layers of cloth.
01:04:46But you want to talk to her.
01:04:48Oh, Colonel.
01:04:50I think this is just your size.
01:04:52Now, let me have the flower.
01:04:53I'll keep it fresh for you.
01:04:58Here goes the flower.
01:05:00Hey, it looks like the blood house of Coney Island.
01:05:02Hey, what's this?
01:05:02It's dark in here.
01:05:04Hey, Joe!
01:05:05Look at me!
01:05:07No, don't look at me!
01:05:09What are you doing in there?
01:05:10I'm trying to get out!
01:05:12I thought you had a day.
01:05:13I have a pass!
01:05:14I have a pass!
01:05:15I have a pass!
01:05:16Yeah, it looks like me.
01:05:17Come on!
01:05:18Come on!
01:05:19Come on!
01:05:20This isn't a tunnel of love!
01:05:21Get moving!
01:05:22Remember what I told you.
01:05:23Don't let this get you down.
01:05:24I'll try to remember that.
01:05:25On your feet!
01:05:26On your feet!
01:05:27On your feet!
01:05:28On your feet!
01:05:29On your feet!
01:05:30On your feet!
01:05:31Come on!
01:05:32Take it up!
01:05:33That's right.
01:05:34Up to ten.
01:05:35That's fine, Sergeant.
01:05:36Line them up, huh?
01:05:37Yes, sir.
01:05:38All right, girls.
01:05:39Line right up along here, please.
01:05:40All right, undo your jacket.
01:05:41Okay, Sergeant.
01:05:42They're all yours now.
01:05:43We'll locate and record the damp areas.
01:05:44Yes, sir.
01:05:45Oh, no, no.
01:05:46Here's where we separate the men from the boys you fellows work on down there.
01:06:02Let's see what's under the hood.
01:06:17Excuse me.
01:06:27Unzip, please.
01:06:30Raise your arms.
01:06:35Hmm, very good.
01:06:40Very good.
01:06:41Let's see the back.
01:06:46Not so bad.
01:06:48You used to think it was perfect.
01:06:50Damp there.
01:06:51All the way through?
01:06:52To the core.
01:06:53Hmm.
01:06:55Better than I expected.
01:06:57All in the line of duty.
01:06:59Isn't that enough?
01:07:01More than enough.
01:07:02You ought to watch that army food.
01:07:04You've been very patient, Colonel.
01:07:07Thank you, Juan.
01:07:08Well, it's 1500.
01:07:09You've still got time to leave the base.
01:07:11Back into the coach, girls.
01:07:13Next, we test the gloves.
01:07:14All right, girls.
01:07:15Follow me.
01:07:16Through the moth, through the ring, we are at it once again.
01:07:19And the white keep go marching.
01:07:21Come on.
01:07:22All right, roll over.
01:07:23Follow them left, follow them right.
01:07:24We never get it right.
01:07:25And the white keep go marching.
01:07:26All right, girls.
01:07:27Go the moth, through the ring, we are at it once again.
01:07:31And the white keep go marching.
01:07:33Come on.
01:07:34All right, roll over.
01:07:35Follow them left, follow them right.
01:07:37We never get it right.
01:07:38And the white keep go marching along.
01:07:41Put, put, put.
01:07:42When they're little left.
01:07:43Come on, you white keep go marching along.
01:07:45Put, put, put.
01:07:47When they're little left.
01:07:48Come on, you white keep go marching.
01:07:50Come on, McPink.
01:07:51Right through the basket, girls.
01:07:52Right on down.
01:07:53Oh.
01:07:54Get me out of here.
01:07:55Purple.
01:07:56Purple.
01:07:57Chill the rain.
01:07:58Chill the rain.
01:07:59Get out of here.
01:08:00Ow.
01:08:02Get me out of here.
01:08:03Purple.
01:08:04Purple.
01:08:05Kill the rain.
01:08:06Kill the rain.
01:08:07Get out of here.
01:08:08Ow.
01:08:09Get out of here.
01:08:10Ow.
01:08:11Get out of here.
01:08:12Ow.
01:08:13Get out of here.
01:08:14Ow.
01:08:15Get out of here.
01:08:18Get out of here.
01:08:19You and your experiments.
01:08:20You've already done enough to keep your hands off of them.
01:08:22Keep your hands off of me.
01:08:32It's all right.
01:08:34Take your hands off me.
01:08:35Do you feel all right?
01:08:36Bright as rain.
01:08:38I haven't earned the Congressional Medal of Honor,
01:08:40but I do want their passes coming to me.
01:08:42You know I can't issue a pass after 1800.
01:08:45I'm sorry.
01:08:45Oh, you're always sorry.
01:08:47And you'll be sorry, too, with that smug,
01:08:48contentable, misplaced sense of humor of yours.
01:08:52Take it to the car.
01:08:57Oh, no, you don't.
01:08:59I demand to see someone in charge right here and now.
01:09:02What's the matter, McBain?
01:09:03Are you sick?
01:09:04Of everything.
01:09:04I'm up to here with your meaningless rules and regulations.
01:09:07You've got to do this before 0800,
01:09:09and you can't do that after 0900.
01:09:11Because we talk about it tomorrow.
01:09:13Yes, I think that would be better.
01:09:14Well, you want to know what I think?
01:09:15I think I made the mistake of my life
01:09:16when I lifted my right hand.
01:09:18I've marched myself till my feet are two sizes larger.
01:09:21I ground 806 hamburgers
01:09:23and gassed myself to eternity and back,
01:09:25only to be singled out for unfair treatment.
01:09:27You wanted to make something of me.
01:09:29Well, you have a nervous wreck.
01:09:30All right, let's go, McBain.
01:09:31I don't want to be a captain,
01:09:32or a major, or a colonel,
01:09:34or a general with two stars.
01:09:42Do you swear to tell the truth,
01:09:44the whole truth,
01:09:44and nothing but the truth,
01:09:45so help you God?
01:09:46I do.
01:09:47Be seated, Captain.
01:09:48As Private Josephine McBain's commanding officer,
01:09:53you've requested this board
01:09:54to consider her separation from the service.
01:09:57Would you please give us the facts?
01:09:59Well, unfortunately,
01:10:00Private McBain's outbursts are characteristic,
01:10:03and there's a slim chance
01:10:04of her ever being able to accept discipline.
01:10:06For a while, she did seem to be making an effort.
01:10:09I feel she should be allowed to graduate.
01:10:11Women like McBain can do us great harm.
01:10:13We're the undersigned of Company B, First Floor.
01:10:17Respectfully request that Private McBain
01:10:19be allowed to graduate with us.
01:10:21You formed a close personal friendship
01:10:23with Private McBain.
01:10:25So isn't your testimony a little biased?
01:10:28Oh, yes, ma'am.
01:10:30Excuse me.
01:10:31Oh, ma'am, I know she's sorry for what she said.
01:10:41She always mops under her bed.
01:10:44And a woman like that doing her own washing.
01:10:47Makes you stop and think, doesn't it?
01:10:51Yes.
01:10:52Thank you, Private Schneiderman.
01:10:54Excuse me.
01:10:56And then we got divorced,
01:10:58although her father, the senator,
01:10:59was on my side.
01:11:01And that night, when I came back,
01:11:03on the staircase, he heard us quarreling,
01:11:05and the next thing you know,
01:11:06he tricked her into joining the army,
01:11:08hoping that you'd straighten her out.
01:11:10And that's just what you were doing
01:11:11when I came along with my misguided sense of humor
01:11:15and started to need her.
01:11:17Left anything out?
01:11:19Just the Japanese Beatles.
01:11:21Mr. McBain,
01:11:22this is not a court of domestic relations.
01:11:25And unless you have some pertinent testimony...
01:11:27Just this.
01:11:27I've witnessed enough of her training
01:11:29and seen her make a sincere effort
01:11:31to know that I saw the girl
01:11:33I used to know on that island.
01:11:36Therefore, in conclusion,
01:11:37in my opinion, she'll be a good soldier.
01:11:39Thank you, Mr. McBain.
01:11:40We appreciate your coming.
01:11:49Private McBain,
01:11:50have you anything to say on your own behalf?
01:11:52The effort that Andrew,
01:11:56Mr. McBain, referred to
01:11:58was an effort,
01:12:00but it wasn't sincere.
01:12:02It was only a selfish means
01:12:03of joining someone in Paris.
01:12:06I never seriously considered an army career.
01:12:09I'm not officer material.
01:12:12I'm not even private material.
01:12:15And contrary to Mr. McBain's opinion,
01:12:16I wouldn't make a good soldier.
01:12:24I'm out.
01:12:26Joe!
01:12:28You Private Joe McBain?
01:12:30Colonel Fairchild's on the phone for you.
01:12:31Oh, thank you.
01:12:32Maybe you're a Colonel Fairchild.
01:12:33He'll think of something.
01:12:34Well, did he think of something?
01:12:48He sure did.
01:12:48We're going to be married
01:12:49day after tomorrow.
01:12:51Oh, Joe.
01:12:52Well, that's wonderful.
01:12:56What am I going to do without you?
01:12:58Oh, now, Clara.
01:13:02For the parade to guide on.
01:13:04Come on, we've got to win it.
01:13:05No, no, no.
01:13:06You've got to win it.
01:13:07I've got to pack.
01:13:07If the way is rough
01:13:11And the odds are tough
01:13:14And the need is for all-out power
01:13:20And if every day
01:13:25Brings a challenge away
01:13:28No matter what the score
01:13:33Count the mission won
01:13:38For the job will be done
01:13:41By the women's army corps
01:13:46The winner of the reading guide-up
01:13:53Is the company
01:13:58The winner of the reading guide-off is the company.
01:14:13You girls did a wonderful job.
01:14:25Oh, Joe, it weighs in its grave.
01:14:29Oh, Schneiderman, I'm mighty proud of you.
01:14:32That doesn't belong to you personally.
01:14:35It goes into the day room.
01:14:37Oh, I know, Sergeant, but can't we take it to the party, please?
01:14:40Oh, I think it'll be all right.
01:14:41I'll ask Captain Murchison.
01:14:43Gee, you've got to go, Joe.
01:14:45No thanks, Clara.
01:14:46I'd rather not.
01:14:47Oh, don't be like that.
01:14:48It's also my engagement party.
01:14:50Noisy!
01:14:51The singing stars won't work!
01:14:52Noisy. The singing sergeant. Well, when did that happen?
01:14:56Oh, well, he doesn't know about it yet.
01:14:58He doesn't know about it?
01:14:59Yes.
01:15:00He doesn't know about it yet.
01:15:18I didn't think she'd come.
01:15:20Yeah, it's pretty rough.
01:15:22Clara persuaded her after all that is there last night together.
01:15:25And ours.
01:15:26Oh, we got to live and love.
01:15:30What's the matter?
01:15:31Well, this thing's alive.
01:15:32Oh, let's kill it.
01:15:40I've just got to say goodbye to Clara.
01:15:50Here we are. Some relish.
01:15:55Not bad.
01:15:58Oh, hello.
01:15:59As a matter of fact, very good.
01:16:01The WAC must have excellent cooking teachers.
01:16:03Oh, they do.
01:16:04But I learned this technique from a civilian expert.
01:16:07They're not too small.
01:16:09Oh, no, just right.
01:16:10Exactly.
01:16:12You got the knack finally, huh?
01:16:16You mixed the onions.
01:16:18Before I added the salt and pepper.
01:16:20Good girl.
01:16:21This is our last dance together.
01:16:23Doesn't it make you feel all choked up inside?
01:16:27Sure.
01:16:28Except this is the first time we've ever danced together.
01:16:40Say, my assistants seem to have their hands closed,
01:16:44so I guess I'll have to take you one.
01:16:46Taking more notes this time.
01:16:48No, I'll rely on my memories.
01:16:50But look, my heart's over.
01:16:51Don't worry about it.
01:16:52I can't all carry on. You two carry on.
01:17:03We're rubbing elbows with some very important elbows,
01:17:05you know, tonight.
01:17:06Oh, yes, yes.
01:17:07Everybody that is anybody is here.
01:17:09There's Gussie Gustafson of the Wisconsin Cheese Set.
01:17:12Oh, yes.
01:17:13Her father just switched to electric milkers, you know.
01:17:15No, no, I didn't know.
01:17:16You mean that you've really been assigned to intelligence?
01:17:19Yes.
01:17:20As a driver.
01:17:23Oh, don't be discouraged, honey.
01:17:25While you'll be driving so many intelligent people
01:17:27that you're bound to pick up lots of pointers.
01:17:30Oh, Sergeant.
01:17:31You're so encouraging.
01:17:33I don't know what I'll ever do without you.
01:17:36Teaching me the phonetic alphabet and all.
01:17:40Oh, I've memorized up to eight.
01:17:43How.
01:17:44And I.
01:17:45I don't.
01:17:54What's next?
01:17:55J. G. L. Love.
01:18:04Oh, Sergeant, you say that with such feeling.
01:18:07Um, well, good luck and goodbye.
01:18:12I'm afraid I must be going.
01:18:16Going?
01:18:17Going?
01:18:18Where?
01:18:19Where are you assigned to?
01:18:20Oh, it's a two top secret to tell.
01:18:22Besides, we'll be world apart.
01:18:25Oh, Clara Schneiderman.
01:18:27Yes.
01:18:28Would you?
01:18:29Yes.
01:18:30Could you?
01:18:31Yes.
01:18:32You could be as cheap as one.
01:18:34And his maiden aunt.
01:18:35What did she do?
01:18:36She didn't.
01:18:37He wore a wig and he never knew it.
01:18:40Well, now, about that notorious McBain woman.
01:18:43What about her?
01:18:44Well, uh, she'd like to thank you for what you did this afternoon.
01:18:48Well, Mr. McBain is very sorry you put his big foot into everything.
01:18:52Oh.
01:18:53Joy, I didn't want him to shoot you at sunrise without knowing you.
01:18:55Oh.
01:18:56Well, Mr. McBain is very sorry you put his big foot into everything.
01:18:58Oh.
01:18:59I didn't want him to shoot you at sunrise without knowing the truth.
01:19:02It might have been simpler if they did.
01:19:06You know, that's one of the most becoming things you've ever warned.
01:19:09Well, they're taking it back in the morning.
01:19:12I wonder what I'm doing here anyway.
01:19:15I was told this was also Clara's engagement party.
01:19:18Well, let's ask Clara.
01:19:19She might know.
01:19:23Hey, anybody engaged?
01:19:24Yes.
01:19:25We are.
01:19:26Oh, Clara.
01:19:27Oh, Clara.
01:19:28What does the sergeant have to say about it?
01:19:30Well, everything went black.
01:19:32Oh, say, now that we no longer have any secrets from each other, where are you assigned to?
01:19:37Fort Lee, Virginia.
01:19:39I've been hacked.
01:19:41That'll teach you to never wave it away.
01:19:43Oh, will you break the news, son, rather than give it to the society columns?
01:19:46Oh, all right.
01:19:47Sure.
01:19:48Quiet.
01:19:49Will you stop the music?
01:19:50Give me one of those, uh...
01:19:53I, uh, I don't know much about that dame, the goddess Athena, who founded your order.
01:19:58But it is written that she was very adept in both the arts of war and peace.
01:20:03So it follows that a whack should make a good wife.
01:20:07A wife who can even handle a sergeant in the quartermaster corps.
01:20:11So let us lift our cups to the forthcoming union.
01:20:15And incidentally, it's unions like this that keep our union in business.
01:20:19Why, I give you Clara Schneiderman and Norbert...
01:20:23Norbert?
01:20:24I said Norbert Jackson!
01:20:27Congratulations.
01:20:29I'm not going to kiss you.
01:20:30He chased you till you finally caught him.
01:20:34Come on, I need help.
01:20:36Hey, don't I get kissed?
01:20:39Congratulations.
01:20:40Oh, thank you.
01:20:42What can I do?
01:20:43You ask me?
01:20:44Fort Lee's most celebrated hostess put the glasses on the tray.
01:20:47This is a wine called champagne.
01:20:50People drink it at weddings, christenings, and such occasions as this.
01:20:55Save the last two for us.
01:21:02Here, boss, you toast us with mine.
01:21:04All right, I'll do that.
01:21:05To the best, to happiness and everything.
01:21:06Come on.
01:21:17Take this, will you?
01:21:18Mm-hmm.
01:21:19Take this, will you?
01:21:20Mm-hmm.
01:21:21Take this, will you?
01:21:22Mm-hmm.
01:21:34Have the clothing, girls!
01:21:35Oh, here you go.
01:21:37You want no shadows tomorrow when you get those diplomas.
01:21:40Good luck in Korea, boss.
01:21:41You are right, Andy.
01:21:42The circus is over.
01:21:43I fell right off that trapeze flat on my face.
01:21:45Poor Skye.
01:21:46He'll have to pick up pieces.
01:21:47He will.
01:21:48In spite of cold and rain and treadmills and other obstacles, we're still friends.
01:21:55Still friends.
01:21:56Incidentally.
01:21:57I fell right off that trapeze, flat on my face.
01:22:01Poor Skye.
01:22:02He'll have to pick up pieces.
01:22:04He will.
01:22:06In spite of cold and rain and treadmills and other obstacles,
01:22:11we're, uh, still friends.
01:22:13Still friends?
01:22:15Incidentally, are you usually that thorough about examining the damp areas?
01:22:21Oh, depends.
01:22:22Oh.
01:22:24It wasn't fair to the Colonel, I'm sorry.
01:22:26None of it was.
01:22:27That's for sure.
01:22:28I shouldn't have hiked you all the way to Point Barra.
01:22:31My sadistic streak, but I guess I don't have to tell you about that.
01:22:35Or my cold feet.
01:22:36Well, I wanted to see you at your worst.
01:22:38Well, you succeeded.
01:22:41No man's land.
01:22:45End of the line.
01:22:47Well, Mr. McBain, it was a right nice party.
01:22:49And not a politician in the house.
01:22:51As a matter of fact, I can't remember when I enjoyed one more.
01:22:54Neither can I.
01:22:55Now, about that career business.
01:22:57Yes?
01:22:58Don't you have too much confidence in that bulletproof camisole you're always trying to perfect?
01:23:02Well, it sounds braver than it is.
01:23:04I...
01:23:04I'm really going over just to investigate the Japanese beetle situation.
01:23:09If you're referring to our old elm tree, I'm afraid it's past saving.
01:23:16I don't know.
01:23:18Science does wonderful things these days.
01:23:20Well, happy journey.
01:23:25Happy research and...
01:23:27I hope I didn't leave too many scars.
01:23:32Vice versa.
01:23:35Good luck to the colonel.
01:23:37And the colonel's lady.
01:23:46Why, you're all over lipstick.
01:23:48Yeah.
01:23:49Yeah, hold this, Winner.
01:23:51It's the wrong shade.
01:23:53It should be darker.
01:23:54You always wear messy about it.
01:23:56I've been in the service now for about 17 months.
01:24:10I've been in the service now for about 17 months, and I figured out...
01:24:26Honey, don't you want to hear about it?
01:24:27Oh, yes.
01:24:28Yes, of course, Skye.
01:24:30You know Pritchett, Blaymore, and Fitz?
01:24:32Oh, are they on general staff?
01:24:34Oh, dear.
01:24:35No jokes, please.
01:24:36And will you forget about the army?
01:24:38Well, anyway, they're the second biggest agency in the country.
01:24:41Oh.
01:24:42I can make them the biggest.
01:25:01So I penetrated him to the tune of 55 grand per annum.
01:25:04Oh, Skye, that is wonderful.
01:25:06That's E Company coming back from field training.
01:25:09It means New York, London, Paris, and this way.
01:25:12But my home base will be Washington, D.C.
01:25:15We can open a house and live there.
01:25:17I've alerted your secretary, who's got the dust sheets off the brand at you.
01:25:20And I've already got...
01:25:21We were cinched to get his baby food contract.
01:25:31So you see, darling, the hand that holds a cocktail glass can be mightier than a sword.
01:25:47Skye, wait.
01:25:50Here comes a batch of new recruits.
01:25:52Hey, Gerald, let's go!
01:25:56Hey, slow down!
01:25:58Wait a minute!
01:25:59Hey, Gerald!
01:26:00Hey, wait for me, please!
01:26:04Hey, Gerald!
01:26:05Hey, Gerald!
01:26:09You're kind of late, honey child.
01:26:11Where are you from?
01:26:12I'm from Washington.
01:26:12Oh, hello.
01:26:14Mary Brill.
01:26:15Hi.
01:26:15Hey, Goldberg.
01:26:16Hello, Kate.
01:26:16We're all going to be generals.
01:26:18What are you going to be?
01:26:19Anything they'll let me be.
01:26:20Maybe I can get a free ride to Korea.
01:26:22What are you going to be?
01:26:23What are you going to be here?
01:26:23What are you going to be here?
01:26:24What are you going to be here?
01:26:24What are you going to be here?
01:26:25What are you going to be here?
01:26:25What are you going to be here?
01:26:26What are you going to be here?
01:26:27What are you going to be here?
01:26:27What are you going to be here?
01:26:28What are you going to be here?
01:26:29What are you going to be here?
01:26:30What are you going to be here?
01:26:31What are you going to be here?
01:26:32What are you going to be here?
01:26:33What are you going to be here?
01:26:34What are you going to be here?
01:26:35What are you going to be here?
01:26:36What are you going to be here?
01:26:37What are you going to be here?
01:26:38What are you going to be here?
01:26:39What are you going to be here?
