00:00:30The End
00:01:00The End
00:01:30The End
00:01:59No, no, don't bother about it. I don't know what I want.
00:02:02Anything wrong, sir?
00:02:04Yes, everything, Francois.
00:02:06Let me make you a mother.
00:02:08Don't help. It's just me. I'm feeling terrible.
00:02:18Good evening, Lord Huntington.
00:02:20Oh, good evening, already. Has Mr. Bliss arrived yet?
00:02:22I'm busy waiting for you in the bow.
00:02:23Oh, good.
00:02:24It's busy as ever, I see.
00:02:26Good evening.
00:02:36Oh, hello, Raleigh. What'll you have?
00:02:38Try a martini, please.
00:02:39Haven't those girls arrived yet?
00:02:40Not yet. Who cares?
00:02:42Come on, let's sit down over here.
00:02:44Look, Raleigh.
00:02:45I got you a note, but I'm blowed if I'll lend you a thousand pounds.
00:02:49Oh, never mind about that.
00:02:50I shouldn't have asked you, really, but you know how broke I am and you're rolling.
00:02:53No, it's not a question of whether or not I can afford it.
00:02:54The point is, it's too easy to lose one's friends, that way.
00:02:57Oh, well, let's forget it, shall we?
00:02:58I shouldn't like anything to spoil our friendship.
00:03:00Oh, don't let's talk about money anyway, Ronnie.
00:03:02I'm an ill man.
00:03:03Oh!
00:03:04No, I'm not kidding.
00:03:05It's all the level.
00:03:05I mean, something's wrong with me.
00:03:07Oh, well, if you're really feeling ill, why don't you let Sir James Allroyd have a look at you?
00:03:10Oh, Sir James Allroyd?
00:03:12He's a bit of a crank, but he'll charge you 20 guineas.
00:03:14He's the best diagnostician there is.
00:03:16Oh, no, no, no, he's what?
00:03:18Don't ask me to repeat that.
00:03:19Anyway, he'll tell you what's the matter with you.
00:03:21He's the best doctor in London.
00:03:35Oh, snap out of it, public misery number one.
00:03:38Come on, let's go and eat.
00:03:39Yes, I'm hungry.
00:03:40All right, here you are.
00:03:43Thank you, Mr. Fisherman.
00:03:45Well, if everyone's been admiring my braids, it's sweet of you.
00:04:10Be a braids.
00:04:25That won't do her any good.
00:04:27All that woman needs is to sack five of her seven servants
00:04:30and do six hours housework a day for three months.
00:04:37I'm afraid you'll break out some day and tell one of them the truth.
00:04:53Lord Roberts, please.
00:04:57Just a moment.
00:05:01What is the matter here?
00:05:03My name is Bliss, Ernest Bliss.
00:05:04I had an appointment before 11 o'clock.
00:05:06I'm sorry, Mr. Bliss, but you were half an hour late.
00:05:16Sir James will see you now, Mr. Bliss.
00:05:28Rather difficult man to see, aren't you, Sir James?
00:05:32Not for those who are punctual.
00:05:36Any other complaints?
00:05:37Do you think I'd have waited an hour and a half if I hadn't?
00:05:39Oh, forget about that.
00:05:41What do you think's the matter with you?
00:05:42I don't know.
00:05:43That's why I came to see you.
00:05:45I can't eat.
00:05:46I can't sleep.
00:05:47I'm nervous.
00:05:49I never do anything and I'm always tired.
00:05:51Yeah.
00:05:52So just take off your shirt and lie down on that couch.
00:05:55There's nothing wrong with your blood pressure.
00:05:58Your muscles are a bit flabby, but your heart's quite sound.
00:06:01Well, then what's the matter with me?
00:06:04Money.
00:06:05Money?
00:06:06Is that not an illness?
00:06:11In your case, it's a disease.
00:06:14Most people break down through overwork.
00:06:16Yours is caused by self-indulgence.
00:06:19Really?
00:06:20Is that so?
00:06:23You know, your father was a clever man.
00:06:25What are you looking for?
00:06:26My tired.
00:06:27You've got it on.
00:06:28Oh.
00:06:29But he made a big mistake when he left you two million pounds to play the fool with.
00:06:34Believe it or not, Sir James, I'm paying you 20 guineas to give me medical advice, not a lecture.
00:06:40My advice should be worth 50,000 pounds to you.
00:06:44I suppose I'm getting a bargain for 20, eh?
00:06:47Certainly, if you take it.
00:06:49What makes you think I wouldn't?
00:06:51No patient of mine in Harley Street ever has.
00:06:54Hmm.
00:06:55Sounds interesting.
00:06:57What is it?
00:07:00Well...
00:07:05Disappear for a time.
00:07:07Earn your own living.
00:07:08Live on a few pounds a week if you can make them.
00:07:11If not, go hungry.
00:07:13Do that for a year and I guarantee it'll make you fit.
00:07:17That's rather a tall order.
00:07:19Of course, a certain amount of moral stamina would be needed.
00:07:22Well, you think I've no stamina, eh?
00:07:27Well, no hard feeling.
00:07:29Good morning.
00:07:30Good morning, Mr. Bliss.
00:07:36You don't seem to like me.
00:07:37A medical man's time is limited.
00:07:39Besides, there's so much genuine suffering in the world that money would alleviate.
00:07:43If you'd visit my clinic in the East End, if you can spare the time.
00:07:48I'm being unprofessionally rude, perhaps, because of the fifth patient I've had here this morning, suffering from the same complaint.
00:07:54Too much money.
00:07:55Look here, Sir James.
00:07:57You just refuse to shake hands with me.
00:07:59All right, I'll make you an offer.
00:08:01Your clinic needs money.
00:08:03I'll bet you that 50,000 pounds you say your advice is worth, against an apology and an honest handshake, that I can take your advice and follow it to the letter.
00:08:12That should be quite a simple matter for you.
00:08:15Your bookmaker, your gunsmith, even your topagonist might find you a job of a few pounds a week.
00:08:21None at all.
00:08:22I'll set out with only five pounds.
00:08:24And without driving the slightest benefit from my name, money, or present position, I'll earn my living for a year.
00:08:31And if I do touch my own money, for my own use, you get 50,000 pounds.
00:08:36Big words, Mr. Bliss.
00:08:38Big promises.
00:08:39But I'm afraid I can't take them seriously.
00:08:43From you.
00:08:47Before you gave me that look, there was a sporting chance you'd win.
00:08:52Now you're having a hope.
00:08:54Then the bet is off.
00:08:56No, the bet's on and I'm going through.
00:08:58Which is it?
00:08:59Left.
00:09:00Oh.
00:09:09Here we are, Claude.
00:09:10Better take those heavy shoes along.
00:09:11Might have to do a lot of walking.
00:09:12Yes.
00:09:13I think it's about all now.
00:09:14I won't need these.
00:09:15No, sir.
00:09:16Tell me something, Claude.
00:09:17Is it true that the hardest job in the world is doing nothing?
00:09:20Yes, sir.
00:09:21Well, I'm afraid that's going to be your job for the next 12 months.
00:09:23Yes, sir.
00:09:2512 months?
00:09:26Then where do I send your trunk?
00:09:27Well, I'm afraid that's going to be your job for the next 12 months.
00:09:29Yes, sir.
00:09:3012 months?
00:09:31Then where do I send your trunks?
00:09:32Trunks?
00:09:33All I need is in their bag.
00:09:34Yes.
00:09:35For 12 months?
00:09:36Yes, sir.
00:09:37Yes.
00:09:38Yes.
00:09:39But, of course, your dress clothes.
00:09:40No, I won't have any use for them.
00:09:41No, I won't have any use for them.
00:09:42No, I won't need these.
00:09:43I won't need these.
00:09:44No, sir.
00:09:45Tell me something, Claude.
00:09:46Is it true that the hardest job in the world is doing nothing?
00:09:48Yes, sir.
00:09:49Well, I'm afraid that's going to be your job for the next 12 months.
00:09:51Yes, sir.
00:09:52For 12 months?
00:09:53Then where do I send your trunks?
00:09:54Trunks?
00:09:55No, all I need is in their bag.
00:09:56Yes.
00:09:57For 12 months?
00:09:58No, I won't have any use for them.
00:10:00Oh.
00:10:01I'd better take a look around, see if I've forgotten anything.
00:10:03Yes.
00:10:08Oh, Claude.
00:10:09Sir?
00:10:10These Laran Yager cigars, keep them in condition, will you?
00:10:13They're the last of their crop.
00:10:14Yes.
00:10:15Oh, and the wine.
00:10:16Especially the 84 Port.
00:10:17I don't want that touched.
00:10:19Yes, sir.
00:10:25Your pocket, sir.
00:10:26Oh, yes.
00:10:27Wait a minute.
00:10:29Now, look, Claude.
00:10:30What is this?
00:10:31I found notes, sir.
00:10:33Right.
00:10:34Now, you're a witness that this is all the money I'm taking with me, aren't you?
00:10:36Yes, sir.
00:10:37Fine.
00:10:38And your chickens.
00:10:39Oh, no.
00:10:40No, I won't need that for a year.
00:10:41At least, I hope not.
00:10:42Now, put it in the desk drawer.
00:10:44No, no, don't bother now.
00:10:45If the bag's ready, take it downstairs and fetch me.
00:10:47No, no.
00:10:48Don't worry.
00:10:49I'll do it myself.
00:10:50I'd better start now.
00:10:51Oh, and, Claude, refer all letters and inquiries to Mr. Crawling.
00:10:56And I'll see you back here a year from now.
00:10:58And I hope you won't be as bored doing nothing as I've been.
00:11:01Oh, what exactly are you going to do, sir?
00:11:04Oh, that's exactly what I don't know.
00:11:06Well, goodbye, Claude.
00:11:10Oh, goodbye, Claude.
00:11:11Thanks.
00:12:39кто-aj지
00:12:44You've been out of work.
00:12:45And he loisted me in a bit.
00:12:47Well, we pay each our rest, Mrs. Heath.
00:12:49And if we can't get Bliss's room, we lose.
00:12:52You can't turn round in here.
00:12:55I can't turn him out into the streets, Mrs. Matthews.
00:13:09Oh, hello, Mrs. Heath.
00:13:32You feeling very tired, my dear?
00:13:34Like a cup of tea?
00:13:37Haven't you anything else to say to me, Mrs. Heath?
00:13:39Oh, I'm afraid you overheard.
00:13:43But don't let it worry you.
00:13:45Well, uh, well, thanks for the mending.
00:13:48It's absolutely professional.
00:13:52They're good tenants, aren't they?
00:13:54Best I've got.
00:13:55Yes, yes, I haven't paid my rent for two weeks.
00:13:59Not another word.
00:14:01If they goes, they goes.
00:14:04Well, that's all right, but you need the money.
00:14:07Never mind that.
00:14:09There's them that can pay, and them that can't.
00:14:12And I knows one who can't help.
00:14:15So, young man, you want to sell my Alfa's toast?
00:14:22That's right, sir.
00:14:22Mr. Clayton, bring me that file of applications for this job, please.
00:14:31Yes, Mr. Masters.
00:14:34Oh, uh, Mr. Masters, why bother going through all those?
00:14:35After all, I'm here on the spot.
00:14:36And believe me, Mr. Masters, this is the first time in my life I've, I've been without a job.
00:14:41You've been very lucky.
00:14:42But, uh, have you ever had one?
00:14:43Now, young man, 27 applications from travelers of experience.
00:14:44Now, young man, 27 applications from travelers of experience.
00:14:50Why should I chuck all these and engage you?
00:14:51Well, look, Mr. Masters, let me tell you the truth.
00:14:55I've been walking around for weeks trying to get a job.
00:14:56If I don't get one soon, I'll starve.
00:14:57I've got to get one soon.
00:14:58I've got to get this one.
00:14:59Yes, sir.
00:15:00Well, what's the first time in my life?
00:15:01I've, I've been without a job.
00:15:02You've been very lucky.
00:15:03But, uh, have you ever had one?
00:15:06Now, young man, 27 applications from travelers of experience.
00:15:12Why should I chuck all these and engage you?
00:15:15Well, look, Mr. Masters, let me tell you the truth.
00:15:20I've been walking around for weeks trying to get a job.
00:15:23If I don't get one soon, I'll starve.
00:15:25I've got to get this one.
00:15:30Oh, say, I got the job.
00:15:32I was afraid you would.
00:15:34Mr. Masters can't say no to anyone.
00:15:36Afraid I would?
00:15:37Say, I can sell stoves.
00:15:40What's your name?
00:15:41Oh, uh, Ernest Bliss.
00:15:44What's yours?
00:15:45Clayton.
00:15:48Start tomorrow, April 21st.
00:15:52Five percent on all sales and two pounds a week's salary, Mr. Bliss.
00:16:00Bring any orders to me and come to me before you're waiting.
00:16:03Thanks.
00:16:04Now, here's some catalogs and full details of the offer stole.
00:16:06Fine.
00:16:07Some price lists.
00:16:08And here's your order book.
00:16:10My what?
00:16:11Your order book.
00:16:13Oh, uh, order book, yes.
00:16:15Oh, you don't think much of me now, but you'll be surprised when I get started.
00:16:20Goodbye, Miss Clayton.
00:16:22Good luck, Miss Clayton.
00:16:23Good luck, Miss Clayton.
00:16:25Good luck, Miss Clayton.
00:16:27I'm glad you are coming over there.
00:16:30Good luck.
00:16:31Good luck.
00:17:03Oh, I know, Miss Clayton, but...
00:17:33But in the past three weeks, I've tried dozens of firms.
00:17:36And there's always some reason for not buying it.
00:17:38Either the stove is too large or it's too small, or the price is too high or it isn't advertised enough.
00:17:43Or...
00:17:44Oh, well, maybe I'm just a rotten salesman.
00:17:48I believe in the stove.
00:17:50It's a good stove.
00:17:51My luck will change.
00:17:53You look very tired.
00:17:54Let me make you a cup of tea.
00:17:56That's awfully kind of you.
00:18:00I thought you didn't like me.
00:18:02Business has nothing to do with personal feelings.
00:18:07May I help you?
00:18:07I'm worried about Mr. Masters.
00:18:16His life savings are in these stoves.
00:18:19Oh, bad as all that, huh?
00:18:20Yes.
00:18:21We'll have to close down shortly.
00:18:23Oh, I'm sorry.
00:18:24I feel sort of partly to blame, you know.
00:18:26Oh, you mustn't say that.
00:18:28You did your best.
00:18:29What do you do now?
00:18:33Do you do it with your parents?
00:18:34No, my mother and sister live up north.
00:18:36I stay at a girls' club.
00:18:38Pretty rotten life for you, isn't it, being cooped up in an office like this?
00:18:41Oh, it hasn't been so bad.
00:18:44At least I've had my job.
00:18:46So you have it to hold on to.
00:18:48Well, if I don't get another quickly, I'll have to start hinting to my friends that I need free meals.
00:18:54Well, that'd be so good, isn't it?
00:18:57Free meals?
00:18:58Yes, if I can get any.
00:19:00Wait, that gives me an idea.
00:19:02500 pounds.
00:19:04Right.
00:19:05So this means that Aldroyd gets his 50,000 pounds.
00:19:09What?
00:19:10Because you've lost your bet.
00:19:11Oh, after all I've been through for the past four weeks, do you think I'm going to quit now?
00:19:15The bet was that you'd live on what you could earn yourself without using your own money.
00:19:20Yes.
00:19:21For my own benefit.
00:19:22That was the bet.
00:19:24I'm not touching this.
00:19:25It's for someone else.
00:19:26Look, here's what I have left from my last week's wages.
00:19:31And here's what I'm living on.
00:19:33Good heavens.
00:19:35Yes, it's just about enough for one meal, too.
00:19:37Good heavens.
00:19:38Good heavens.
00:19:39Good heavens.

00:20:05Excuse me.
00:20:06You can't come the waiter?
00:20:07You should get behind the queue.
00:20:08I'm here on business.
00:20:09I want to see the manager.
00:20:10Where is he?
00:20:11Oh, he has possession.
00:20:12All right.
00:20:13Good morning.
00:20:14Oh, good morning.
00:20:15I'm the buyer from Elliman's, Commander.
00:20:16Oh, well, well, I'll...

00:20:26...I'll...
00:20:27...I'll...
00:20:28...I'll...
00:20:29...I'll...
00:20:30...I'll...
00:20:31...I'll...
00:20:32...I'll...
00:20:33...I'll...
00:20:34...I'll...
00:20:35...I'll...
00:20:36...you won't you sit down.
00:20:39Oh, Miss.
00:20:41Will you tell the chef I tasted this?
00:20:42I find it excellent.
00:20:43And to serve it out to the people.
00:20:44Yes, sir.
00:20:45Pretty enterprising, all this.
00:20:47Oh, yes.
00:20:48Well, it's just a little idea to straighten our retail trade, you see.
00:20:54Oh, your wholesale.
00:20:56Well, of course, that's...
00:20:57...that's hardly in our line.
00:20:59If you'll excuse me a moment, I have a couple of other buyers waiting for me.
00:21:02Oh, wait a moment.
00:21:03Surely you can spare me just a couple of moments to show me the stoves.
00:21:07Well, er...
00:21:08...yes, yes.
00:21:09I suppose it could be done.
00:21:10Come this way, will you?
00:21:20Hiya.
00:21:21This little ventilator.
00:21:22It's patent, of course.
00:21:23Yes, yes.
00:21:24The, er...
00:21:25...master's patent.
00:21:26Uh-huh.
00:21:27Oh, er...
00:21:28Would you mind telling the two gentlemen that are waiting for me, the, er...
00:21:31...two buyers?
00:21:32And I'll join them in just a moment.
00:21:36Now, there's...
00:21:37...there's no reason to divide the business between a dozen firms.
00:21:39Well, of course, er...
00:21:40...we might be able to manage your entire output.
00:21:43Oh.
00:21:44In the meantime, I'll...
00:21:45...I'll order a hundred.
00:21:47A hundred?
00:21:48Well, I'm...
00:21:49...I'm sorry, but that's all I can at the moment.
00:21:51Oh, er...
00:21:52...no, er...
00:21:53...yes.
00:21:54Usual trade terms.
00:21:55Er...
00:21:56...well, er...
00:21:57...look, look, look, old man.
00:21:58I...
00:21:59...I wish you'd wait and see Mr. Masters himself.
00:22:00He'll be along in just a minute.
00:22:01All right.
00:22:02While we're waiting, I'll write the order.
00:22:03The, er...
00:22:04...the order.
00:22:05Oh, yes.
00:22:06The order.
00:22:07Well, you know, it's so noisy around here.
00:22:08My, er...
00:22:09...order book.
00:22:10Yes.
00:22:11Oh, yes.
00:22:12I'll get it.
00:22:19Oh, look at that.
00:22:20Look at that.
00:22:21My first order.
00:22:22What?
00:22:23Well, er...
00:22:24...in...
00:22:25...in the new book.
00:22:26I see.
00:22:27Here we are, sir.
00:22:28Oh!
00:22:29It's Mr. Masters now.
00:22:30Mr. Masters, I want you to know the chief buyer at Elements.
00:22:32Mr. Masters.
00:22:33Good morning, Mr. Masters.
00:22:34What's the meaning of all this and bliss?
00:22:35Well, Elements have just placed a little order for 100 stones.
00:22:38100?
00:22:39Oh, it's only a trial order, of course.
00:22:41But we...
00:22:42Well, I've already explained that we're really not interested in wholesale business.
00:22:45You must appreciate, Mr. Masters, that if we can get together, we can take at least 40,000 a year.
00:22:50Certainly.
00:22:51Mm-hmm.
00:22:52But now, we...
00:22:53Oh, no, no, no.
00:22:54Mr. Masters, we can at least consider the matter.
00:22:56Well, think it over.
00:22:57I know you're busy at the moment, so I'll call at your office tomorrow.
00:23:02Good morning.
00:23:03Good morning.
00:23:04Look at that.
00:23:05But where'd you get all the money to run this place?
00:23:07Well, I'm coming to that.
00:23:08You see, I borrowed 500 pounds on your behalf from a young fool I know who has more money than is good for him.
00:23:15So here's what's left of it, and his solicitor will send you a bill.
00:23:20Oh, by the way, may I?
00:23:22I'm a trifle short.
00:23:23I had to hire this suit.
00:23:24I owe you a commission on 100 stoves.
00:23:26Yes, well, Mr. Masters, I'm afraid I can't take that.
00:23:28You see, I have to leave your employees.
00:23:30What do you take me for?
00:23:31You saved me from going under.
00:23:32No, no.
00:23:33You stay on here as a partner.
00:23:34Just bless you.
00:23:35You can't leave now.
00:23:36Please don't.
00:23:37Well, I'm afraid I must.
00:23:38These are my own clothes in here.
00:23:39Goodbye, Mr. Masters.
00:23:40Don't be silly.
00:23:41There's big money in this.
00:23:42I'm offering you a partnership.
00:23:43I'm offering you a partnership.
00:23:44I'm offering you a partnership.
00:23:45I'm offering you a partnership.
00:23:46I owe you a partnership.
00:23:47I owe you commission on 100 stoves.
00:23:48I owe you commission on 100 stoves.
00:23:49Yes, well, Mr. Masters, I'm afraid I can't take that.
00:23:51You see, I have to leave your employees.
00:23:52What do you take me for?
00:23:53You save me from going under.
00:23:54I owe you some clothes in here.
00:23:55Goodbye, Mr. Masters.
00:23:56Don't be silly.
00:23:57There's big money in this.
00:23:58I'm offering you a partnership.
00:24:00I won't take no for an answer.
00:24:02I've got to have a look around this place.
00:24:05Miss Clayton, this isn't goodbye for us.
00:24:09It's all too insane.
00:24:11Yes, I suppose it seems so.
00:24:13But look, when I'm settled in my next job,
00:24:16can I call you up and take you to dinner or a show or something?
00:24:19Well, there's no use prolonging the agony, is there?
00:24:23Goodbye.
00:24:46Yes, wait a minute.
00:24:48Here we are.
00:24:49How's the chicken?
00:24:50Oh, it's very nice.
00:24:51Oh, you can say that anyway.
00:24:52Two chickens, huh?
00:24:53All right.
00:24:54And, uh, spumoni?
00:24:55Oh, spumoni, yes.
00:24:56Two spumonis and two coffees.
00:24:57Two spumonis and two coffees.
00:24:58That's right.
00:24:59How do you like yours?
00:25:00Black?
00:25:01Black.
00:25:02All right, two coffees.
00:25:03Let's try this.
00:25:04It's a marvelous wine.
00:25:05I hope you're all right.
00:25:06You should have phoned me sooner.
00:25:07Even if you hadn't found work, I could have paid for the dinner.
00:25:09Do girls pay for dinners?
00:25:10I hadn't thought about it.
00:25:11Well, I might not have bought you the wine.
00:25:12Yes, but this is a celebration.
00:25:13To your entrance into the cabbage business?
00:25:14Oh, no, no.
00:25:15To our first dinner together.
00:25:16Here's to us.
00:25:17Ah, but it's good.
00:25:18It's lovely.
00:25:19So cheap.
00:25:20My goodness, I thought it would taste like red ink.
00:25:21It's magic.
00:25:22Yes, it's your magic, too.
00:25:23It's you who turned this cheap wine, this cheap food into a feast.
00:25:24Oh, no.
00:25:25It's a good wine.
00:25:26Well, I think it's a good wine.
00:25:27Well, if you hadn't found work, I could have paid for the dinner.
00:25:28Two girls pay for dinners?
00:25:29I hadn't thought about it.
00:25:30Well, I might not have bought you the wine.
00:25:31Yes, but this is a celebration.
00:25:32To your entrance into the cabbage business?
00:25:33Oh, no, no.
00:25:34To our first dinner together.
00:25:35Here's to us.
00:25:36Ah, but it's good.
00:25:37It's lovely.
00:25:38So cheap.
00:25:39My goodness, I thought it would taste like red ink.
00:25:47For the gods.
00:25:57I have an idea.
00:25:58He's done that for us.
00:25:59For you.
00:26:00If the signorina and the signorin would like to dance,
00:26:03which you said would be the greatest pleasure.
00:26:05Oh, thanks.
00:26:08It's funny.
00:26:09That's my lady dance team.
00:26:10Best tune I ever heard.
00:26:11Come on, let's do something about it.
00:26:17Come on, let's go.
00:26:18Come on.
00:26:19Let's go.
00:26:27I'm leaving, Mr. Martin.
00:26:28Really?
00:26:29Why?
00:26:30For the same reason you did.
00:26:31What do you mean?
00:26:32Well, you turned him down, so he wants to make me a partner.
00:26:35A partner?
00:26:36What, the old scoundrel?
00:26:38Oh, I don't think so.
00:26:40Rather fond of him.
00:26:42Well, he wants to marry you, eh?
00:26:43Well, it makes it rather awkward.
00:26:45Two of us in the same office.
00:26:47Yeah.
00:26:48But look, Frances.
00:26:49What did a fellow like that offer a young girl like yourself?
00:26:52Security.
00:26:54I don't know.
00:26:57Well, what are you going to do?
00:26:59Same thing you've been doing.
00:27:01Look for something else.
00:27:03Good girl.
00:27:05It's not so easy, you know.
00:27:15Well, your driving test was satisfactory.
00:27:35But driving isn't everything.
00:27:39What we want is punctuality and service.
00:27:41Yes, sir.
00:27:43Oh, what about my livery, sir?
00:27:46The uniform will cost ten pounds.
00:27:48Oh.
00:27:49We supply it, you pay for it out of your wages.
00:27:52A pound a week, to me.
00:27:54Very good, sir.
00:27:57Report at seven in the morning.
00:27:59Yes, sir.
00:28:10Hello.
00:28:12Do you get the job?
00:28:13Oh, sure.
00:28:14Sure.
00:28:15I thought you would.
00:28:16Of course, old Mike's uniform will just about fit you.
00:28:17Here.
00:28:18Can't smoke here, you know.
00:28:19Thanks.
00:28:20Thanks for rules.
00:28:21Wait a minute.
00:28:22What was that about Mike in the uniform?
00:28:23Oh, he got the sack after six weeks.
00:28:25They always do.
00:28:26But must never let some stay here.
00:28:28I thought there was something wrong.
00:28:29Have they wrong?
00:28:30Of course, Richard.
00:28:31You don't think I've got the thing to bits for nothing, do you?
00:28:33No, no.
00:28:34I don't suppose you have.
00:28:41Okay, what in the place do you think you're doing?
00:28:42I'm terribly sorry, sir, but I didn't know she'd backed into this space.
00:28:44Well, why don't you look where you were going?
00:28:46What kind of drive-in do you call that, anyway?
00:28:49Ernest.
00:28:50Ronnie!
00:28:51Willard!
00:28:52How are you?
00:28:53Okay, what do you mean by giving us a slip like that?
00:28:55Yes, well, I thought I'd better drop out of sight for a while.
00:28:58I say, oh, man, don't misunderstand me, but if a five is any use to you, for old time's sake...
00:29:02You know, Ronnie, that's funny.
00:29:04Because the last time we met, I refused to help you.
00:29:06Yes.
00:29:07You should make me feel pretty ashamed about that.
00:29:09Honestly, I thought you were Rowley.
00:29:11No, Ronnie.
00:29:13Nice of you, but put it back in your pocket.
00:29:16And thanks.
00:29:17Okay.
00:29:18Hey, Ronnie!
00:29:20Oh, excuse me, Milford.
00:29:22Don't stand there arguing with that chauffeur.
00:29:26It's Ernest Bliss.
00:29:27He's working as a chauffeur.
00:29:29Really?
00:29:31I'd like to speak to him.
00:29:35No, wait for me.
00:29:36I'd like to speak below.
00:29:38Oh, very well.
00:29:43Ernest.
00:29:45Claire.
00:29:46Claire.
00:29:49Oh, you're with Ronnie, huh?
00:29:51Yes.
00:29:55Well, perhaps you'd like to engage a good chauffeur.
00:29:57At your service.
00:29:59It wasn't very nice of you to chuck us all just because you had bad luck.
00:30:03Yes.
00:30:04Well, Claire, a chauffeur's wages, you know, hardly...
00:30:07I know.
00:30:08A chauffeur's wages for the whole year.
00:30:09I wouldn't buy one of the things you gave me.
00:30:13No, I'm afraid you're right.
00:30:14Of course, there's always the tips.
00:30:16You mustn't forget the tips.
00:30:18You haven't changed.
00:30:22Goodbye, Ernest.
00:30:23Bye-bye.
00:30:40I can't understand it.
00:30:43They both came after lunch from Bortier.
00:30:46The one I left in his car last night and this one.
00:30:48His twin brother.
00:30:49Now, I've got one to tell you.
00:30:51When I was dressing this evening, a bank messenger came from the door of my flat
00:30:55and left a package with ten one-hundred-pound notes in it.
00:30:58A thousand pounds?
00:30:59Hmm?
00:31:00Hmm.
00:31:01You know, it's a funny thing.
00:31:02When I offered Ernest a fiber yesterday, he reminded me that he once refused to lend me a thousand.
00:31:08It doesn't make sense.
00:31:10It certainly doesn't.
00:31:22I knew you couldn't resist a call like that.
00:31:26But it's twenty miles out.
00:31:27Do you need the gloves?
00:31:29No, thank you.
00:31:30Oh, I don't know.
00:31:31Perhaps you'd better pop them in.
00:31:32I'll telephone your chauffeur.
00:31:33No, no, no.
00:31:34Don't wake him up.
00:31:35Bring up the garage we hired a car from last time.
00:31:43Hello.
00:31:45Yes.
00:31:47Pick up who?
00:31:48Oh, Dr. Aldroy.
00:31:49Yes.
00:31:51Nineteen Dock Road, Poplar.
00:31:55Very good.
00:31:57Smith.
00:31:58Sir.
00:31:59Take this and go to...
00:32:00But it's my night off, Mr. Edwards.
00:32:02Oh, very well.
00:32:03Send Bliss for the danger.
00:32:04Yes, sir.
00:32:09You'd better get home as soon as you've cleared up this news.
00:32:12Good night.
00:32:13Good night, Sir James.
00:32:16My secretary told you where to go.
00:32:18Yes, sir.
00:32:19Make the best time you can.
00:32:20You've got to go over here.
00:32:23It's a very urgent case.
00:32:24Yeah, sir.
00:32:28This is the first officer.
00:32:30Well, that's the second officer to take the knife.
00:32:32He understands when he's breathing.
00:32:33Yes.
00:32:34Yes.
00:32:35What the**실 продукта says, please?
00:32:36Yes.
00:32:37Yes.
00:32:38Yes, sir.
00:32:39The crisis definitely passed.
00:32:41Nothing for you to worry about now, Mr. Dankton.
00:32:43Thanks to you, Doctor.
00:32:45She said you'd come if I sent you a wire.
00:32:47I... I didn't believe you would.
00:32:49Hmm?
00:32:51I don't know what to say.
00:32:53And as for the fee...
00:32:55Oh, there's no fee.
00:32:57I will just get back and have some sleep.
00:32:59I'll just get back and have some sleep.
00:33:01Come on.
00:33:03Come on.
00:33:05Come on.
00:33:07You're a good driver. Sorry to have kept you up so late.
00:33:11I, uh...
00:33:13I'd rather have a handshake than this tip, Sir James.
00:33:17I'll just go and get back.
00:33:19I'll just go and get back and have some sleep.
00:33:217th Harliss Day.
00:33:27You're a good driver. Sorry to have kept you up so late.
00:33:31I, uh...
00:33:33I'd rather have a handshake than this tip, Sir James.
00:33:35Why not both?
00:33:37Oh, no.
00:33:39No, I haven't won that bet yet.
00:33:41What the devil do you mean by that?
00:33:43Well, it'll be, uh...
00:33:45seven months next Tuesday.
00:33:47And believe me, the first seven months are the hardest.
00:33:51Good night, sir.
00:33:57Well, I'll be...
00:33:59Well, I'll be...
00:34:05Allo! Eh, Chef!
00:34:07Ma per l'amore!
00:34:08Ma Santa Catarina!
00:34:09Ho ordinato tu a ravioli di sugo...
00:34:11E tu hai frittato, ma no, ma...
00:34:13Ma non è possibile, ma...
00:34:15Oh!
00:34:17Ha, ha, ha!
00:34:19Oh!
00:34:20Ha, ha, ha!
00:34:21Ha, ha!
00:34:23Ha, ha!
00:34:27Ha, ha!
00:34:28Ha, ha, ha!
00:34:29Francis, look.
00:34:31Supposing you had a lot of money...
00:34:33Well, supposing you won a sweepstake.
00:34:35Frances, look, supposing you had a lot of money.
00:34:38Well, supposing you won a sweepstake, what would you do, huh?
00:34:42I'd never win a sweepstake.
00:34:44Oh, you might.
00:34:46Well, if I did, I'd clothes.
00:34:52Rooms full of clothes.
00:34:55And I'd have a big car, a chauffeur.
00:34:59If you want all those things so very, then...
00:35:05Masters is doing all right now, isn't it?
00:35:08Yes.
00:35:13My friends from the theater play for the Signorina.
00:35:16You're a darling.
00:35:17Semper, you know you won't own this place.
00:35:19Not just be head waiter here.
00:35:20Oh, what I could do.
00:35:24Frances.
00:35:26Tell me.
00:35:29You wouldn't marry a fellow without a bean just because you liked him, would you?
00:35:36No.
00:35:39Oh, I was just wondering.
00:35:40I sort of thought it would be fine if you could.
00:35:48Won't need you any longer.
00:35:49Very good, sir.
00:35:50But, uh...
00:35:52I want to see you.
00:35:53Yes, sir.
00:35:54Can you make it Thursday morning?
00:35:5610 o'clock?
00:35:58Here, sir?
00:35:59No.
00:36:00My flat.
00:36:0111 Regents Park Gate.
00:36:0311 Regents Park Gate?
00:36:04Yes.
00:36:05Flat six.
00:36:10Did, uh...
00:36:11Did you say flat six?
00:36:13Yes.
00:36:28Come on.
00:36:29Come on.
00:36:30Come on, my dear fellow.
00:36:31Sit down and make yourself comfortable.
00:36:33Mr...
00:36:34What's your name?
00:36:35Uh...
00:36:36Brown.
00:36:37Brown.
00:36:38Edward Brown.
00:36:39Brown.
00:36:40Say, that's a very nice cigar you're smoking at.
00:36:43Yes.
00:36:44Tip top condition.
00:36:47Not many of them left.
00:36:49Sorry to hear that.
00:36:50You should worry.
00:36:52Uh...
00:36:53Have a glass of port.
00:36:56Thanks.
00:36:57You do yourself pretty well, don't you, Mr. Dorrington?
00:37:02That's a before port, too, isn't it?
00:37:04Yes.
00:37:05So good, it's a pity to drink it.
00:37:08Oh, yes.
00:37:09I agree with you there.
00:37:15How do you like this place?
00:37:17Oh, it suits me fine.
00:37:19Belongs to a young fellow.
00:37:21He's traveling around the continent for a bit.
00:37:23Left his man in charge.
00:37:25Poor fellow having nothing to do.
00:37:27Not betting on the dogs.
00:37:29So he lets it to me for a fiver a week.
00:37:33Tell me, where is this man now?
00:37:35In his room, drinking whiskey.
00:37:37Oh, I see.
00:37:38You fellas drink the port and he drinks the whiskey.
00:37:41Well, that's right.
00:37:43But we all smoke his cigars.
00:37:45Oh, that's fine.
00:37:46Just one big happy family.
00:37:47Yes.
00:37:48You have a cigarette.
00:37:50Can I have a look around?
00:37:52Yes, I would.
00:37:53It might be very interesting.
00:37:54Yes.
00:37:55Of course, since I took possession, I've improved this place a bit.
00:38:00Oh, that.
00:38:01Look at this.
00:38:02I bought this little fellow myself.
00:38:04The Caledonian Market.
00:38:06Tasteful, isn't it?
00:38:07Oh, yes, indeed.
00:38:08Makes you think.
00:38:09And look here.
00:38:10He's short for thousands, this butler tells me.
00:38:13Oh?
00:38:14Well, the silly fellow kept it in the hall.
00:38:16Well, it's the chef Dover of his collection.
00:38:18I moved it in here right away.
00:38:20Yes, well, look.
00:38:21Mr. Darlington, I don't mean to appear inquisitive or anything,
00:38:24but after all, why did you ask me to come here?
00:38:27I'll show you.
00:38:28Anything strike you about that?
00:38:42What do you mean?
00:38:44That's Ernest Bliss.
00:38:46The fool who owns this place.
00:38:48Notice any resemblance to yourself?
00:38:51Well, yes, now that you mention it, I suppose there is.
00:38:54Mm-hmm.
00:38:55What does a man like you do for 10,000 pounds?
00:39:0010,000 pounds?
00:39:02Well, practically anything short of murder.
00:39:05Good boy.
00:39:06Then we understand one another.
00:39:08Quite.
00:39:09Now, let's get together.
00:39:11I've been practicing Ernest Bliss's signature for months.
00:39:15Found his bank books in that drawer.
00:39:17How much do you think he's got on current account?
00:39:19Oh, I haven't the slightest idea.
00:39:21160,000-odd.
00:39:23160,000-odd?
00:39:25Isn't it simple?
00:39:27To think of all that money lying idle.
00:39:30No one to use it.
00:39:32Well, what are we going to do about it?
00:39:35This.
00:39:36Mm-hmm.
00:39:38Pay cash 30,000 pounds.
00:39:42Ernest Bliss.
00:39:44Are you going to cash that?
00:39:47No.
00:39:48You are.
00:39:49Oh, that's the big idea, huh?
00:39:52Well, what makes you think I can get away with it?
00:39:55Well, once you're dressed up in one of Bliss's suits,
00:39:58the bank will pay out all right.
00:40:00Simple, isn't it?
00:40:02Yes, it's so simple.
00:40:03What's to prevent me walking away with the whole lot?
00:40:05I am.
00:40:09Now, go and get dressed.
00:40:11I'm coming with you.
00:40:19Good job.
00:40:20How do you think it would look better to stay here?
00:40:26Good morning.
00:40:27Haven't seen you in a long time.
00:40:29Nice to see you again, Mr. Bliss.
00:40:32It's a large amount, isn't it?
00:40:34Yes, quite.
00:40:35Excuse me, Mr. Bliss, but, uh, did you sign this yourself?
00:40:40Why do you ask?
00:40:41Well, it seems absurd since you present it.
00:40:44But if this check came through in the ordinary way,
00:40:46I'd say it was forged.
00:40:47Congratulations.
00:40:48You know your job.
00:40:49Mr. Bliss, what is the meaning?
00:40:50No time for explanations now.
00:40:51I'll tell you what to do.
00:40:52Get some old papers, shut them into an envelope,
00:40:54and pass them out to me quickly.
00:40:55I've watched.
00:40:56Well?
00:40:57Everything all right?
00:40:58Have you got the money?
00:40:59Hey, relax.
00:41:00Say, take it easy.
00:41:01Everything's fine.
00:41:02Perfect.
00:41:03Say, this fellow's grand.
00:41:04It was so easy.
00:41:05Say, it was just like taking candy from a kid.
00:41:06You couldn't have found anyone better.
00:41:07Hey!
00:41:08Keep your hands off that gun.
00:41:09You're trying to double course us?
00:41:10No, no, no.
00:41:11No, no.
00:41:12No, no.
00:41:13No, no.
00:41:14No, no.
00:41:15No, no.
00:41:16No, no.
00:41:17No, no.
00:41:18No, no.
00:41:19No, no.
00:41:20No, no.
00:41:21No, no.
00:41:22No, no.
00:41:23No, no.
00:41:24You're not trying to double-cross us?
00:41:26No, I'm not trying to double-cross you.
00:41:28You fellows made a mistake, that's all.
00:41:30You're very lucky, different reasons of my own.
00:41:32I'm not calling in the police.
00:41:33Now get out of here.
00:41:34What do you mean?
00:41:36What's the game, Brown?
00:41:38I'm not Brown.
00:41:39I'm Bliss.
00:41:40You know, the fool that owns this place.
00:41:42Say, how do you like that?
00:41:44And why did you cash that check?
00:41:47Well, as you seem to have found out,
00:41:49I kept quite a lot of money in that account.
00:41:51I just wanted to know whether the bank would recognize
00:41:53a forged signature or not.
00:41:55Come on, Fred.
00:41:56Think of something better.
00:41:58All right.
00:41:59You don't believe I'm Bliss?
00:42:00If I can get Clowes away from that bottle,
00:42:02he'll prove it to you.
00:42:03Why do we care who he is?
00:42:05I tell you, he's got that money.
00:42:07Come on.
00:42:08Give it to us.
00:42:10Yes, that's right.
00:42:14Hand it over, Brown.
00:42:16All right.
00:42:18Ah!
00:42:20Ah!
00:42:21Watch that!
00:42:51Ah!
00:43:00Ah!
00:43:05Here!
00:43:06Ah!
00:43:07Look out!
00:43:08That boss!
00:43:09Look out!
00:43:10Look out!
00:43:11That boss!
00:43:37Come on!
00:43:38Let's go!
00:43:39Let's go!
00:43:40You can see!
00:43:41You can see!
00:43:42No, don't worry!
00:43:43Let's go!
00:43:44You can see!
00:43:45Come and see!
00:43:46Let's go!
00:43:47Come and see!
00:43:48Get a ball!
00:43:49Leave your notes!
00:43:50Leave your notes!
00:43:51Go!
00:43:52Yes!
00:43:53Come and see!
00:43:56Get a ball!
00:43:57Take a ball!
00:44:02He's looking for free!
00:44:03Come and see!
00:44:04Come and see!
00:44:05Come on, come on.
00:44:28Clouse, did you hit him with that bottle?
00:44:31Yes, sir.
00:44:33Oh, Claus, it was the 84 port.
00:44:38Now, now, don't worry any more about it, Claus. I quite understand.
00:44:41Believe me, sir, it was having no work make me go wrong.
00:44:44It was too hard a job having nothing to do at all.
00:44:47Of course it was. That used to be the trouble with me.
00:44:50Sir?
00:44:51By the way, you'd better keep the rest of that port locked up.
00:44:54I might need it for a celebration.
00:44:56Yes, I'm, uh, I'm hoping to get married in about four months.
00:45:00Oh, sir, whatever will you be doing next?
00:45:03Uh, Miss Clayton, I want more than just a tightest.
00:45:10I don't quite understand.
00:45:12All my most confidential papers will go through your hands.
00:45:15A relationship of trust, of friendship.
00:45:18I might almost say intimacy, of course.
00:45:20Well, I think I can be trusted, Mr. Montague.
00:45:23Uh, won't you sit down?
00:45:27Uh, are you ready to start work at once?
00:45:29Of course, the figure I mentioned could be raised, possibly.
00:45:32If we get on together.
00:45:34I hope we shall, Mr. Montague.
00:45:38Mr. Montague said he needs me to take notes for some very important deal.
00:45:42Yes, but dear, I know something about that place he's taking you to.
00:45:46Oh, but Ernst, dear, I can't afford to lose my job.
00:45:49Besides, I can take care of myself.
00:45:51You know, I've got a funny feeling that your employer's car is going to develop engine problems.
00:45:56Oh, so that's why you wanted to know where he kept his car.
00:45:59Uh-huh.
00:46:00Well, he can always hire a car.
00:46:02Yes.
00:46:03And he'll tell his secretary to hire one for him, see?
00:46:06Stupid.
00:46:07Come on.
00:46:29Good evening, Mr. Montague. Everything's ready.
00:46:31Oh, good.
00:46:32First, I'll put the tag by there, miss.
00:46:33Oh, uh, leave it on the table there.
00:46:35And get yourself a drink.
00:46:36Thank you, Clayton.
00:46:37Uh, will you go ahead, Miss Clayton?
00:46:48Capable fellow, that chauffeur you've got for me.
00:46:50Uh, yeah.
00:46:52It's warm in here, isn't it?
00:46:54Uh, won't you sit down, Clayton?
00:46:57Oh.
00:47:00Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:06And I'll order you a cocktail.
00:47:08Shall I serve the caviar, sir?
00:47:10Oh, put it on the table.
00:47:11Thank you, sir.
00:47:13Now, if you'll excuse me for a moment, my dear.
00:47:16I'll just go and see if my business plane will come.
00:47:19Certainly, Mr. Montague.
00:47:26How would you like to earn a fiver?
00:47:27Very much indeed, sir.
00:47:28Well, uh, tinker about with your engine and...
00:47:30after dinner come and report to me.
00:47:31Report what, sir?
00:47:32Well, that your car's broken down...
00:47:36and, uh, there's no train back...
00:47:38and... you've just heard there's a big belt of fog...
00:47:39between here and London...
00:47:40and there's no chance of getting back to town tonight.
00:47:41Right, london.
00:47:42Report what, sir?
00:47:43Well, that your car's broken down, and there's no train back.
00:47:48You've just heard there's a big belt of fog between here and London,
00:47:52and there's no chance of getting back to town tonight.
00:47:55You won't forget, will you?
00:47:57Leave it to me. I won't forget.
00:47:59Smart fellow.
00:48:05Oh, dear, dear, dear.
00:48:07Most annoying.
00:48:09My friends have been held up with the fog.
00:48:12Don't matter, my dear.
00:48:14We'll have a little dinner here together, eh?
00:48:17Just the two of us, before returning to town.
00:48:20I don't want to be late, Mr. Muldigue.
00:48:23I have to be early at the office.
00:48:25Oh, that's all right, my dear.
00:48:27Come along. Come along.
00:48:30Tonight we'll forget the office.
00:48:33Here. Sit here.
00:48:35That's right.
00:48:38Now then.
00:48:40Leave that. I'll see to it.
00:48:42Very good, sir.
00:48:44Ah, that's beautiful caviar.
00:48:47Now the fun's going to start.
00:48:50How right you are.
00:48:58Come along, Francis. We're leaving. I'm taking you back to London.
00:49:01How dare you, you insolent!
00:49:03Shut up. Come on, dear.
00:49:04I shall report you to your manager.
00:49:06Shut up.
00:49:07Wait for me in the car, dear.
00:49:08Carry out of here at once.
00:49:13Eat your caviar.
00:49:14You have the cheek to want your wages up to last night, eh?
00:49:26You can consider yourself lucky Mr. Muldigue didn't have you up for assault.
00:49:29Oh. I suppose my last four days' pay goes into your pocket, huh?
00:49:33No, it does not. And that uniform's not paid for. Return it.
00:49:36There.
00:49:37And the poor fellow that gets my job inherits this uniform and pays you a pound a week for it.
00:49:41If you don't return it, I'll summons you. Get out.
00:49:43But, Mr. Edwards, if this Muldigue was treating that girl that way, blister's the only thing a decent man could do. Mind your own business.
00:49:50Ah, thanks, Bill. Keep out of it. It's my funeral.
00:49:52As a matter of fact, Bronson, your work's been slacking off lately. You can take a week's notice yourself.
00:49:57Oh, now, look here. I'll go. He's got nothing to do with this.
00:50:00Besides, he's got a wife and two kids. You can't sack him.
00:50:02Oh, can't I?
00:50:04Look here. When this garage belongs to you, my lord, I'll accept orders from you. But not before.
00:50:11Wait.
00:50:13That's the first sensible thing I've heard you say.
00:50:17So long, Bill.
00:50:23No, no, Crawley. Don't argue about the price.
00:50:26I'll take the Sand Motorhire place at that figure.
00:50:29And look. When you close the deal, fire Edwards.
00:50:33Edwards. He's the manager in charge now.
00:50:35And give his job to a mechanic named Bill Bronson.
00:50:38No, Bronson.
00:50:40No, no, no. B-R-O-N-S-O-N.
00:50:44Right.
00:50:51I'm gonna get that bus driving job in the morning. They promised it to me.
00:50:54Besides, everything's gonna be changed in a few weeks.
00:50:58I, uh, I had a dream the other night.
00:51:02Yes, I dreamt about, uh, Cinderella.
00:51:05I was the fairy godmother and the prince all rolled into one.
00:51:08Hey, you're absolutely good for nothing.
00:51:12I let my family down. I give up everything I ever wanted.
00:51:15If I marry you.
00:51:19What you're going to, dearie.
00:51:22You think I must be crazy.
00:51:25You know, Frances, I only made two serious bets in my whole life.
00:51:29I'm gonna win them both.
00:51:31What are they?
00:51:32Well, the first one doesn't matter.
00:51:33But the second one I made after I met you.
00:51:35Yes?
00:51:36Mm-hmm.
00:51:37Mm-hmm.
00:51:38I bet myself I'd make you marry the stove salesman, the greengrocer's assistant.
00:51:42The chauffeur.
00:51:45Then...
00:51:47You win your best.
00:51:51Oh, what a fool I am.
00:51:53The money and all those things don't matter.
00:51:58They don't exist.
00:52:02Because I love you.
00:52:07I love you.
00:52:10Telegram for Miss Clayton. Any reply?
00:52:12Just a moment, please.
00:52:25It wasn't fair to let me tell you this before I knew you were out of work, Frances.
00:52:28If the doctor says Helen can't live unless she's taken to a winter resort, you did quite right to come to London and tell me.
00:52:44After all, I'm her sister.
00:52:48You can't do any more about it than I can.
00:52:59It was only a crazy dream.
00:53:03Dreams don't come true.
00:53:06It's not for people like us.
00:53:20It'll be all right about Helen.
00:53:22I'll send her to Switzerland.
00:53:23Would you say, Julie?
00:53:24But I know where I can get a job.
00:53:27From a man who's very fond of me.
00:53:30He's a good man, Mother.
00:53:33A fine man.
00:53:35He wants to marry me.
00:53:54No Miss Clayton is left here.
00:54:07A new address.
00:54:09I'm afraid I don't know it.
00:54:24It's been two weeks.
00:54:25Not a word.
00:54:27They don't even know at the place she lived where she's gone.
00:54:30She took her things with her.
00:54:31If you spend all your time looking for this young lady, I presume you've left your employment on that bus.
00:54:36Of course. Of course I have.
00:54:38But if you draw money from me and buy her jewels, dresses and things like that, what about your bet?
00:54:44If only a few more days, this is a matter of 50,000 pounds.
00:54:46Well, all right then. Pay all to it is 50,000 pounds.
00:54:49Don't you see, if I go through with this bet, it may lose me Francis. Can't you understand that?
00:54:53I'm afraid I can't.
00:54:55Well, I wanted her to take me the way she thought I was.
00:54:59Poor.
00:55:01And that wasn't fair to her, was it?
00:55:03So you're going to lose 50,000 pounds just to satisfy this girl?
00:55:08Oh, what's the use of talking to you about love?
00:55:11Very little, no doubt.
00:55:12But would a young lady disappear like this if there weren't some other interests?
00:55:17Nonsense. She loves me. She said so. I know she does. There's never been anybody else.
00:55:25She wouldn't do that.
00:55:28She couldn't do that.
00:55:29Whatever that may be, I rather fancy that is just what she has done.
00:55:42Say, does Miss Clayton work here?
00:55:43Yes.
00:55:44But she usually doesn't come in until about 10, now she's back in Mr. Masters.
00:55:47Look at her.
00:55:49Here, what are you after?
00:55:50When you see Miss Clayton hang this sign up.
00:55:51Now don't worry about it, it's a little joke of mine.
00:55:52I'll be at the outside door, and don't you let her see you do it.
00:55:53Hello, Frances.
00:55:54I was afraid you'd find me.
00:55:55What's the matter? Why won't you look at me?
00:55:56Why won't you look at me?
00:55:57No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:56:00I'll just let her see you hang this sign up.
00:56:01Now don't worry about it, it's a little joke of mine.
00:56:02I'll be at the outside door, and don't you let her see you do it.
00:56:15Hello, Frances.
00:56:18I was afraid you'd find me.
00:56:20What's the matter? Why won't you look at me?
00:56:22Look at me.
00:56:29I'm going to marry Mr. Masters.
00:56:33Goodbye, Ernest.
00:56:36Morning, Mr.
00:56:37Oh, dear me, not working.
00:56:39Oh, that is tough luck, isn't it?
00:56:41All flights of stairs, too.
00:56:43Same old office?
00:56:46Francis, Willie, I've hunted everywhere for you.
00:56:49I even gave up my job to look for you.
00:56:51Probably the last one I'll ever have.
00:56:58Won't you go with me?
00:57:00You're only making it harder for both of us.
00:57:02Well, remember Browning's poem, The Last Ride Together?
00:57:04Why can't we have a last walk together?
00:57:08But, Francis, let me get this clear.
00:57:10Why do you say it'll only make it harder for us?
00:57:13Oh, fool.
00:57:15Was it because you knew if you saw me you couldn't, uh, couldn't go back to Masters?
00:57:23Oh, please don't, Ernest.
00:57:25Two people like us having an earthly charm.
00:57:28But together we have.
00:57:30Tell me, are you in love with this Stove King?
00:57:33No, Ernest.
00:57:34So you're marrying him for his money, eh?
00:57:36Yes.
00:57:37Now will you go?
00:57:38No.
00:57:39What made you change your mind?
00:57:40Francis, we found something together worth more than money.
00:57:42I can't let you go.
00:57:43Thinking that about me.
00:57:44Listen, it isn't for myself.
00:57:45My sister's seriously ill.
00:57:46And this is the only possible way I can help her.
00:57:49Oh, darling, why didn't you tell me so before?
00:57:50Well, you had your own worries, and...
00:57:52I'm sorry.
00:57:53I'm sorry.
00:57:54I'm sorry.
00:57:55I'm sorry.
00:57:56I'm sorry.
00:57:57I'm sorry.
00:57:58I'm sorry.
00:57:59I'm sorry.
00:58:00I'm sorry.
00:58:01I'm sorry.
00:58:02I'm sorry.
00:58:03I'm sorry.
00:58:04I'm sorry.
00:58:05I'm sorry.
00:58:06I'm sorry.
00:58:07I'm sorry.
00:58:08I'm sorry.
00:58:09I'm sorry.
00:58:10Well, you had your own worries, and...
00:58:12there wasn't anything you could do.
00:58:16Yes, but don't you see?
00:58:17I thought you were doing it for furs and jewels and cars and all that kind of stuff.
00:58:21Well, they wouldn't have mattered.
00:58:25You do see why I have to do it, don't you?
00:58:27Because I am.
00:58:37Let me go now.
00:58:39We're only making it worse.
00:58:41No, Francis.
00:58:42I've got to talk to you.
00:58:44Two diamond bracelets.
00:58:46Three vanity bags.
00:58:48Two rings.
00:58:50One pair of diamond earrings.
00:58:52One diamond brooch.
00:58:54One diamond hair clip.
00:58:56One jewel case.
00:58:58Twelve sets of now, Jerville.
00:59:00One
00:59:09and two.
00:59:10Got it, Jag 22.
00:59:11Good morning, Lady.
00:59:12MB.
00:59:13Alright.
00:59:14Now, relax.
00:59:15Now, look.
00:59:17Now that you own that restaurant...
00:59:19Don't forget, never charge more than the usual one-in-six for dinner.
00:59:20And if ever you see a young fellow with a young girl and they sing hard up, throw in the wine and charge it to me, will you?
00:59:25Si, si, senor. Mille grazie.
00:59:28Your word is my love.
00:59:32Dear old early fish, never knew the difference between accommodative and deprivation.
00:59:38Hello, Clare. How are you? Hello, Ronnie.
00:59:39Hello, ladies. Thanks so much for what you did.
00:59:41Make it a couple of thousand next time, will you?
00:59:43I see they're in the Santa Claus, then.
00:59:45Ah, yes, well, Clare, I wouldn't mention that if I were you.
00:59:47There's somebody coming along who might not like it tonight.
00:59:49All right.
00:59:50Come and meet some friends, a mother.
00:59:51Mrs. Martin.
00:59:52Mrs. Winton.
00:59:53Hello, dear.
00:59:54It was you who sent the money. Oh, sir, I... I can't say no words.
01:00:09Oh, now, now, Mrs. Heath, you were very kind to me. You taught me much.
01:00:14Look, you've worked very hard.
01:00:16I just want to know that you didn't care for the rest of your life.
01:00:19God bless you, sir.
01:00:21Mrs. Savvy. Come on over here. Sit with Mrs. Heath.
01:00:24But look out for her. She has a way of stealing into people's hearts.
01:00:37And my apologies.
01:00:39Although I lost my bet only by three days, you win.
01:00:43You've carried out my prescription to the letter.
01:00:46And I can't accept your check.
01:00:48Well, Sir James, that's an academic point.
01:00:51You see, you'd have had your 50,000 pounds anyway.
01:00:55If I decided that the night I drove you out to the country.
01:00:58Oh, please, sir.
01:00:59Then I...
01:01:00Hey, boys, you're here to the country.
01:01:01What?
01:01:02Ah.
01:01:03And now that you're all here, my friends, you have been so kind to me during the past.
01:01:06I want you to meet my wife.
01:01:11Francis.
01:01:12Are you ready?
01:01:13They're all waiting for you.
01:01:20Darling.
01:01:22You're crying.
01:01:27What's the matter, baby?
01:01:28Cinderella didn't cry in the story.
01:01:34But she would have in real life.
01:01:37I'm too happy not to cry.
01:01:39Too happy.
