00:01:59The End
00:02:29Yes, we're working on them now. We'll mail them out tonight. Goodbye. We've got to go tonight. In a hurry? And how? Jack Merrick? Yep. He's pretty steady, isn't he? That's your buzzer.
00:02:59Oh, don't tell anyone, though. Why not?
00:03:02Why not? Tell? Sure.
00:03:04Oh, I can't now. I'll write and tell you all about it. Oh, anything serious? Oh, very serious.
00:03:09We expect you and your father tonight. Don't forget, man. Hello, Mr. Merrick. Hello, old timer. Who are you? Say, you and Marion doing anything tonight? Oh, we don't be still. Say, can you keep a secret? Sure. Take a peek at this. Look. Well, well, that's funny. I'm just 25 years ahead of you. No kidding. Congratulations. That's great.
00:03:37Hello. Hello? Mr. Ferguson's right here. Mrs. Ferguson. Hello, my dear. No, I'm going to work here tonight. Yes, I know it's a good opera. No, I'll get a sandwich at the club later. Good for my waistline.
00:04:01Yes. Yes.
00:04:18Goodbye.
00:04:31Goodbye.
00:04:33Goodbye.
00:04:37Have you your notes on this? Yes.
00:04:48Yes.
00:04:49I got it.
00:04:50The license.
00:04:51Look.
00:04:52The license itself?
00:04:53The license itself.
00:04:54Look.
00:04:55John Merrick, a single man.
00:04:56The married one.
00:04:57The married one.
00:04:58Both white.
00:05:00Come on, what are your things?
00:05:01Oh, you need one of my notes.
00:05:02What's the idea?
00:05:04Well, I'll be back in a minute.
00:05:05Now, listen, now, you're all washed up on that stuff.
00:05:07Come on.
00:05:08Oh, I haven't told him.
00:05:10You go right in and tell him now.
00:05:11Now, come on, hurry up.
00:05:12You should be quiet.
00:05:13Hurry up now.
00:05:17Miss Donald, you made a mistake here of over ten million dollars.
00:05:20Oh, no.
00:05:21Well, a few million dollars more or less.
00:05:22Mr. Harrison, I should have told you before,
00:05:25but I've had such an exciting day.
00:05:28I'm leaving.
00:05:30Leaving?
00:05:31Yes, to get married.
00:05:33Married?
00:05:34Yes.
00:05:35When's the happy day?
00:05:36It's tonight.
00:05:37Tonight?
00:05:38Sounds like an elopement.
00:05:39It is.
00:05:40Who's the lucky boy?
00:05:42Well, if you don't mind, I'd rather not stay.
00:05:45I see.
00:05:46I hope he's worthy of you.
00:05:47Chicago boy?
00:05:48Oh, yes.
00:05:49What's his business?
00:05:50Well, he hasn't exactly a business.
00:05:52He's somebody's son.
00:05:53How unusual.
00:05:55Well, I mean...
00:05:57I mean, well...
00:05:59It's Jack Merrick.
00:06:01Merrick?
00:06:02John Merrick's boy?
00:06:03Yes.
00:06:04I see what you mean by somebody's son.
00:06:06He's going to work.
00:06:08You're marrying money.
00:06:10No, I'm marrying the man.
00:06:12He's the son of one of the really big fortunes.
00:06:14That doesn't matter.
00:06:15He should work.
00:06:16Every man should work.
00:06:18You work, Mr. Ferguson, and you're rich.
00:06:20Well, I'm rather a lonely old man.
00:06:22My work keeps me occupied.
00:06:25So you're off tonight?
00:06:26Yes.
00:06:27Crazy kid.
00:06:28It's serious.
00:06:29Marriage is a serious step for a woman.
00:06:32I'm not afraid.
00:06:33Young love seldom is afraid.
00:06:35Well, I'll finish these.
00:06:37No, no, no.
00:06:38Never mind.
00:06:39I'm sorry this is so sudden.
00:06:41Well, this sort of thing usually is sudden.
00:06:43Sure I can't correct my mistake?
00:06:45No, no.
00:06:46No, no.
00:06:47Oh, thanks.
00:06:48Goodbye.
00:06:49Goodbye.
00:06:50We'll miss you.
00:06:52Goodbye, and good luck.
00:06:54Thank you, Mr. Ferguson.
00:06:56Goodbye.
00:06:59Get out of here.
00:07:00Of course I'm going to get out of here.
00:07:02Here.
00:07:03Wait, I have to put everything in order now.
00:07:05William and I have to put this in.
00:07:06Oh, I'm the man of the family.
00:07:08I'll put that down.
00:07:09Well, maybe that glass out of here.
00:07:11Here, wait a minute.
00:07:14What are you doing?
00:07:15Don't take those flowers out of there.
00:07:16Goodbye, old friend.
00:07:18Come on, hurry up.
00:07:20Will you get out of here?
00:07:21Oh, wait a minute.
00:07:22Oh, it might hurt.
00:07:23All right.
00:07:24Now, come on.
00:07:25Hurry up.
00:07:26I'm about to do something.
00:07:28Come on.
00:07:29Come on.
00:07:30You love me?
00:07:31Adore you.
00:07:33Come on.
00:07:34Bye, darling.
00:07:35Bye, darling.
00:07:36Bye, darling.
00:07:37I love you, darling.
00:07:39You're a very important girl.
00:07:40Can you...
00:08:03I love you, Truly.
00:08:06Truly dear, like whether it's sorrow, like whether it's chill.
00:08:24Daddy, I see you.
00:08:29Darling.
00:08:30Oh, yes.
00:08:36Good morning, Mrs. Merrick.
00:08:38Good morning, Mrs. Merrick.
00:08:44Oh, look at that lake.
00:08:46Yeah.
00:08:48You know where we ought to be now?
00:08:50Mm-hmm, just where we are.
00:08:52Mm-mm.
00:08:53In the sunny south of France.
00:08:55The sunny south of France.
00:08:57You know, smoother down from Paris, through the south of France.
00:09:01Get on the yacht at Marseille.
00:09:03And then all the way down the Mediterranean to Alger.
00:09:06I mean, a real honeymoon.
00:09:09Darling, isn't this a real honeymoon?
00:09:11Of course it is.
00:09:20Goodbye.
00:09:21Goodbye.
00:09:22Goodbye.
00:09:23Goodbye.
00:09:24Goodbye.
00:09:25Happy?
00:09:26Happy.
00:09:27Whee-yah!
00:09:29Oh, you broke yourself.
00:09:31Say, Jack, you better fix that.
00:09:32Oh, I'll let the hotel fix it.
00:09:35No, you fix it.
00:09:36Why?
00:09:37Well, if you don't know why.
00:09:39Hey, will you cut that out?
00:09:42Hey, you.
00:09:43Stop that.
00:09:44The phone is ringing.
00:09:46Will you just me answer that?
00:09:48Hello?
00:09:49Hey.
00:09:51Hello?
00:09:52Speaking.
00:09:53Well, tell him I'll be right down.
00:09:59I didn't say send him up.
00:10:03Was it Mr. Merrick?
00:10:05You're sure it was Mr. Merrick?
00:10:08Or anybody with him?
00:10:11Oh, heck.
00:10:14Oh, Lord.
00:10:23Hey, pipe down.
00:10:35Why?
00:10:36It has arrived.
00:10:38Breakfast?
00:10:38No, Dad.
00:10:40Why? Where?
00:10:41He's coming up now.
00:10:42His love is with him.
00:10:46Oh, great big boogeyman.
00:10:48No.
00:10:49Now, this is no joke.
00:10:53Now we'll get some fireworks.
00:10:56Now the trouble starts.
00:10:57Trouble?
00:10:58What do you mean, trouble?
00:11:09What makes you so nervous, Dad?
00:11:11You don't know Dad.
00:11:12Oh, darling, if he's going to make me look like that, I don't want to.
00:11:15This is serious.
00:11:16You realize what we've done, don't you?
00:11:18What?
00:11:18Well, we eloped.
00:11:20We ran away.
00:11:20We got married.
00:11:21We've got a fight on our hands.
00:11:23Oh, darling, we're two to one.
00:11:24We can fight the world.
00:11:25But I wouldn't want to fight Dad.
00:11:27I'm his only son.
00:11:29I'm the only thing he's got.
00:11:30You're my husband, and you're the only thing I've got.
00:11:32Yes, I know.
00:11:33Now you'd better get dressed.
00:11:34I'll go on in.
00:11:35I know Dad.
00:11:36You can't keep him waiting.
00:11:44Hello, Dad.
00:11:45You young fool, I'd ought to take you and break your neck.
00:11:54Why, Dad?
00:11:55What have you done?
00:11:56I've married a marvelous girl.
00:11:58Did you have to marry her?
00:11:59Now get that out of your mind.
00:12:01She's as straight as a die.
00:12:02Were you drunk?
00:12:03No.
00:12:04Well, who is she, and who are her people?
00:12:06Her people?
00:12:07Well, I've never asked her, Dad.
00:12:10To hear you talk, anyone would think I picked her up.
00:12:12As a matter of fact, Mary is a charming, decent girl who happens to work for a living.
00:12:16How does she earn her living?
00:12:18She was a stenographer.
00:12:19A stenographer?
00:12:20But she'd stack up with any of the girls we know.
00:12:22Well, that being the case, didn't it occur to you that I might like to have met the woman who's going to take our name?
00:12:28Yes, I thought of that, but to tell the truth, Dad, you're a bit of a snob.
00:12:31What?
00:12:32Well, you are.
00:12:33Because she happened to work for a living, you'd have ritzed her and questioned her.
00:12:37And you couldn't do that to her.
00:12:38She's got too much spirit.
00:12:39So rather than take a chance of losing her, we ran away.
00:12:43I wanted to be sure of her.
00:12:45Well, she's made sure of you, all right.
00:12:47I'm glad she has.
00:12:50Well, Dad, I love her and she loves me.
00:12:53And we're married.
00:12:55What are you going to do about it?
00:12:56Do you realize what the papers are going to do about it?
00:12:59What the story will be?
00:13:01Young men who lopes with stenographer in the middle of the night.
00:13:04Oh, Dad.
00:13:05A dirty, filthy, rotten scandal.
00:13:07Now, you listen to me.
00:13:10I'm one of the biggest men in this country, and you're my son.
00:13:14And as my son, you owe me your duty.
00:13:16That duty is to live up decently to the name that I've worked all these years to give you.
00:13:21And now, now you're quitting.
00:13:23No, I'm not quitting.
00:13:24Yes, you are quitting.
00:13:26You're tangled up with some woman of the town.
00:13:29One of the kind that follows kids like you around, waiting for a chance to hook them.
00:13:33Something that you want to bring down to a place like this at night.
00:13:38Some low-down, low-lifed, fortune-hunting parasite.
00:13:42Why, I...
00:13:43Marion.
00:13:45Jack, was he speaking about me?
00:13:47What?
00:13:49Yes, I was.
00:13:52Oh.
00:13:54Marion.
00:13:57Dead wise.
00:13:59Smart as a whip, too.
00:14:01Say.
00:14:01Mm-hmm.
00:14:03What are you going to do about him?
00:14:06I don't know.
00:14:07You don't know.
00:14:07Well, what?
00:14:08Send him away.
00:14:09If you knew Dad, you'd know that if he went now in the mood he's in, he'd never come back.
00:14:12You want him to come back?
00:14:13He called your wife a thing of the street.
00:14:15Oh, he's just mad now.
00:14:16Mad?
00:14:17When you know Dad better.
00:14:18I don't want to know him any better.
00:14:19But we'll need him.
00:14:20Do you need him?
00:14:21I don't.
00:14:21Well, you're not going to borrow out a $50 million just because he lost his temper, are you?
00:14:25His temper?
00:14:26Well, he didn't mean it.
00:14:27He did mean it, and I mean this.
00:14:29Not one penny of that man's money are you going to take.
00:14:31You're just upset now.
00:14:32When you think better of it.
00:14:33No, you're going to work as we planned, and I'll work too.
00:14:36Jack, let's keep our pride.
00:14:38But honey.
00:14:39I married you, not your father or his money.
00:14:42Not for you to choose.
00:14:43But Marion, I can't give up a fortune.
00:14:46I can give up my life.
00:14:49Go and send him away.
00:14:52Go out and send him away, or I swear to you, I'll leave you.
00:14:57I mean it.
00:15:02Okay.
00:15:15To show you how wrong you are about Marion, she just told me that if you had 50 times the money you have, she wouldn't touch a penny of it.
00:15:22And that goes for me too, Dad.
00:15:26I'm with her 100%.
00:15:28I love her, and I'm going to work for her.
00:15:32We don't need you, Dad.
00:15:35Jack.
00:15:42Jack.
00:15:43Yes, Dad.
00:15:45Come here, boy.
00:15:50I suppose this is the right girl for you.
00:15:53Suppose it is.
00:15:53It is, Dad.
00:15:54Have you realized that they'll always say one thing about her?
00:15:57What's that?
00:15:58She'll be just the stenographer that Jack Merrick eloped with in the middle of the night.
00:16:03Well, what's wrong with that?
00:16:04Oh, it's all very well to be cocksure now, but you've got your lives before you.
00:16:09And you mark my words, the day will come when she'll resent, and rightly too, the imputation that she caught you off guard, that she hooked you for your money.
00:16:18Well?
00:16:19Now, suppose we call this a day, for now.
00:16:23Just what do you mean?
00:16:24I mean, have the marriage annulled.
00:16:26Never.
00:16:27If you wanted to start this girl off right, you'd let me have this marriage annulled quietly.
00:16:32Then the impression would be that you never had been married, but that you had met a charming girl.
00:16:39You'd brought her down to see me, and I liked her.
00:16:41Now, do you get me?
00:16:42Not quite.
00:16:44Then after that, we'll see what she has in the way of a background.
00:16:48Nothing at all?
00:16:49Well, a little publicity, and we'll build one.
00:16:52But she doesn't need one.
00:16:53Oh, now, wait a minute.
00:16:55You know how I do things.
00:16:57We'll buy her some clothes.
00:16:59We'll build her up gradually.
00:17:01She's a charming girl.
00:17:03Everybody seems fond of her.
00:17:05You propose to her.
00:17:06The engagement's announced, and everything is jade.
00:17:09Then, for a happy courtship.
00:17:11And after that, an honest-to-goodness slap-bang wedding, that'll start you both off right,
00:17:18and put you in a spot in this city that the name of Mary entitles you to.
00:17:21Now, does that make sense?
00:17:24I see what you mean.
00:17:25It'll be much better for the young lady in the long run, Jack.
00:17:28You must see that.
00:17:30Yes, yes, I see that.
00:17:32She's pretty touchy about the whole thing.
00:17:34It'll need handling.
00:17:35Good.
00:17:36That shows she's got spirit.
00:17:37Oh, she's got that all right.
00:17:39And it would be much better for her, wouldn't it?
00:17:41Why, of course.
00:17:43And then, Jack, a real honeymoon abroad.
00:17:48Say, what are the chances for getting the yacht on the Mediterranean?
00:17:51Anything you want.
00:17:52You know how I do things.
00:17:54Okay, say, now, wait a minute.
00:17:56You will be nice to her, won't you?
00:17:57Sure.
00:18:00Yeah.
00:18:01Yeah.
00:18:02Yeah.
00:18:03Yeah.
00:18:03Yeah.
00:18:03Yeah.
00:18:08Are you going through with that?
00:18:12Do you think I'm crazy?
00:18:14How do I know who she is?
00:18:16He's in love with her.
00:18:17Oh, he's nothing but a kid.
00:18:18And this woman swept him off his feet.
00:18:21When the time comes for him to marry,
00:18:23he'll marry Josh Carton's daughter, and he'll like it.
00:18:29The young Carson girl, eh?
00:18:31Yeah, little Catherine Carson.
00:18:33She's a charming kid.
00:18:35Good family.
00:18:36Good breeding.
00:18:37One of his own class.
00:18:39By the way, old man, this kid's the only thing I've got.
00:18:42I don't think you'll break this thing without a fight.
00:18:48Well, we can fight, can't we?
00:18:50We've handled people before this, haven't we?
00:18:54Let her start.
00:18:55Go on.
00:18:55Dad, speaking of you, it would be much better for you.
00:18:58What is this plan of your father's?
00:19:00Well, he thinks we should call the day, just for now.
00:19:03Call our marriage a day?
00:19:05We'd still be married.
00:19:06How could we if they annull it?
00:19:08Well, don't you see?
00:19:08We'd be engaged all over again.
00:19:10I see, and in the meantime.
00:19:12Well, Dad would build you up with people.
00:19:14Build me up?
00:19:15I don't need building up.
00:19:18Well, you want a position, don't you?
00:19:21I've got a position.
00:19:21I'm your wife.
00:19:22Who said you were?
00:19:23You did.
00:19:24Well, I'll back Dad's judgment.
00:19:26After all, he is somebody.
00:19:27His opinion counts for something.
00:19:29You're right, it does.
00:19:30It counts for you.
00:19:31What is your dad exactly?
00:19:32What do you think you all are?
00:19:33You want to call this thing a day?
00:19:34All right, call it a day.
00:19:35I'm through.
00:19:36What?
00:19:37Why, marry him.
00:19:38Mr. Merrick, I married your son because I loved him and thought he loved me.
00:19:42I felt that if he worked on his own for his folks, it would make a man of him.
00:19:45I put him to the test and he failed me.
00:19:47No, Marion.
00:19:48You came here to save your son from a fortune hunting parasite.
00:19:51Well, you happened to have saved her instead.
00:19:54I know the marriage taken back.
00:19:55I don't want him.
00:19:56Marion.
00:19:56Jack, Marion.
00:19:57Your father's calling back.
00:19:59Jack.
00:20:00Jack.
00:20:08Jack.
00:20:09Jack.
00:20:10Jack.
00:20:11Jack.
00:20:12ORGAN PLAYS
00:20:42What's the matter with Baby this morning?
00:21:00He wants his milk. The milkman's late.
00:21:03So am I.
00:21:06Before you go, Miss Donald, I'd like to speak to you.
00:21:09There are some things to be gone over.
00:21:10I'm so late. You don't know that crowd on the morning like this.
00:21:16There'll be a crowd here if you don't get some of these bills paid.
00:21:19Miss Donald, you can't keep on evading them.
00:21:23I'm not evading anything. I simply haven't got the money, that's all.
00:21:28Somehow or other, we've got to pay Dr. Ridley.
00:21:31He's got to be paid.
00:21:32After all, you owe the baby's life to him.
00:21:34And I didn't tell you yesterday.
00:21:36But yesterday they came and took the sewing machine.
00:21:39The sewing machine?
00:21:39Four months behind on the payment.
00:21:41Like the money for that.
00:21:42That money went to the central market.
00:21:44Oh, surely. Surely they would have paid it.
00:21:46Oh, no, no, no.
00:21:49Is it all right?
00:21:50Of course he is.
00:21:52I'll go.
00:21:54Milk.
00:21:56Here's the baby's milk now.
00:21:59Is that the certified milk?
00:22:00Yep.
00:22:03Gotta collect.
00:22:04What?
00:22:04Gotta collect.
00:22:05What does he say?
00:22:07Gotta collect.
00:22:08He says he's got to collect.
00:22:10$16.50.
00:22:11How's that?
00:22:12How long since you've been paid, young man?
00:22:15Don't know.
00:22:17These tradesmen are so impotent.
00:22:20Well, I like that.
00:22:22I like Mrs. Rockefeller the way she ends them to me.
00:22:25Come on, why don't you leave it?
00:22:27Step on it, will you?
00:22:29I'm late.
00:22:29I step on you.
00:22:32Here, give her the change.
00:22:44So you gave him the $20.
00:22:46You didn't have to pay all that.
00:22:48Now you've given him the rent money and we'll be out on the street.
00:22:51Baby had to have his milk.
00:22:53I could have gone down to the corner and got it for 50 cents.
00:22:55Why didn't you say so?
00:22:57Now let me tell you something for your own good, Miss Donnelly.
00:23:01You get $50 a week.
00:23:02After that, you pay me $20 when you pay me.
00:23:05That leaves you $30 to run everything.
00:23:07Food, clothes, rent, and all this baby cost you.
00:23:10Oh, my angel.
00:23:10At night when I bring these things up, you've got a sick head ache, or you're tired, and you say, in the morning.
00:23:18Then morning comes, and it's...
00:23:19I must go here.
00:23:21Well, I must go too, Miss Donnelly.
00:23:23For good.
00:23:24Oh, you couldn't.
00:23:27And why couldn't I pray?
00:23:29Because you've got to take care of him.
00:23:31He's never had anyone but you.
00:23:33Oh, please, sweet.
00:23:35Let's talk about this tonight.
00:23:37Please.
00:23:39Oh, Miss Donnelly.
00:23:41You ain't in no fit condition to go out and do a day's work.
00:23:44Well, your nerves ain't right.
00:23:47Mark my words, it's coming.
00:23:49What's coming?
00:23:50A breakdown, and then what would happen?
00:23:52Oh, why don't you do what you should have done long ago?
00:23:55Oh, Pat.
00:23:56Go to the baby's father.
00:23:58Let him help.
00:24:01Now.
00:24:08Where's my umbrella?
00:24:10I left a bit of a dog with my puddles out there.
00:24:13I'll get it for you.
00:24:14What's the matter, Miss Donnelly?
00:24:27Telephone the office and say I'll be late.
00:24:29What's the matter?
00:24:30Oh, I'm all right.
00:24:32A little faint air.
00:24:33I'm perfectly all right.
00:24:34Nothing the matter.
00:24:35Get me a cup of tea, will you?
00:24:37I told you not to go out mornings without your tea.
00:24:41I'd get you a bit of toast, too.
00:24:43No, never mind the toast.
00:24:44No, never mind the toast.
00:24:46Yes.
00:24:47Come here.
00:24:48What is it?
00:24:49Look.

00:25:23The pair left immediately after the ceremony for an extended trip through the sunny south
00:25:28of France.
00:25:38Well, that's that.
00:25:40Where's my tea?
00:25:42That's him, ain't it?
00:25:50Well, the baby's grandfather's here, ain't he?
00:25:53According to the papers, he's a charitable sort of man.
00:25:56Very.
00:25:57Then you should go to him.
00:25:59Those Merrick's owe that baby something.
00:26:01Oh, Miss Donald, it's your stubborn pride.
00:26:05You can be stubborn about yourself, that's one thing, but a young baby's another.
00:26:11Well, I don't know.
00:26:12I don't know.
00:26:13I don't know.
00:26:14I don't know.

00:26:23Oh, no.
00:26:24While you're in there, tell Mr. Merrick that we're holding the wires on the train till the
00:26:27last minute.
00:26:28All right.

00:26:38It's most urgent.
00:26:39Oh, you have arranged it.
00:26:40What's wrong with that parent call?
00:26:41Oh, the delay's in New York, Mr. Merrick.

00:28:25He's been tied up for hours.
00:28:27Twenty millions of preferred stock out of an issue of forty million,
00:28:31and you're asking for an instance?
00:28:33Just a minute, will you compromise and accept 22.5?
00:28:37I've been in this business for forty years,
00:28:41and I won't be bulldozed.
00:28:43We're not bulldozed, don't you?
00:28:45Just like that, just like that.
00:28:47We'd better postpone this and tomorrow.
00:28:49Now, you all understand the main features of the agreement.
00:28:51Miss Donald has them in her notes.
00:28:53A copy will be mailed to you tomorrow.
00:28:55A copy will be mailed to you tomorrow.
00:28:57Oh, well, well.
00:28:59Number three of the last time I make things.
00:29:01I'll be sure, you're heavier though now.
00:29:07Hello?
00:29:08Anyone going my way?
00:29:09I can't hear you.
00:29:11Can you speak a little louder?
00:29:13Oh, I hear the word parrot.
00:29:15Oh, I see.
00:29:17He's regained consciousness.
00:29:19Fine, fine.
00:29:20Can you bring your notes, please?
00:29:21Yes.
00:29:22All right, thank you.
00:29:31What's the matter with you, Miss Donald?
00:29:33What's the matter?
00:29:35Nothing.
00:29:36I'll watch you this afternoon at the meeting.
00:29:38You didn't take down any of the notes.
00:29:40Your mind was miles away.
00:29:42I'm sorry, Mr. Ferguson.
00:29:44Don't be sorry.
00:29:45Sit down and tell me all about it.
00:29:47There isn't anything to tell.
00:29:49Oh, yes, there is.
00:29:50Now, sit down.
00:29:51You know, I've seen this coming on.
00:29:54What?
00:29:55A breakdown.
00:29:57A breakdown?
00:29:59Yes.
00:30:00Why, you haven't been yourself for weeks.
00:30:02Frankly, I'm worried about you.
00:30:04Is there anything so surprising in that?
00:30:07We've been associated for a long time.
00:30:09After all, I'm a friend.
00:30:12Now, you better tell me what's troubling you.
00:30:14You've more important things than...
00:30:17Nothing is more important to me.
00:30:19Now, come on.
00:30:20What is it?
00:30:21Tell me all about it.
00:30:26It isn't any one thing.
00:30:28It's everything.
00:30:29Everything's all muddled together.
00:30:32I'm a failure.
00:30:35You're not a failure.
00:30:36Now, what you need is a trip to the country.
00:30:39Out in the sunshine with that baby of yours.
00:30:42I can't.
00:30:43You can, and I'm going to see that you go.
00:30:45Why, if I saw a stranger in the state that you're in,
00:30:48I'd want to help.
00:30:49And you're much more than that to me.
00:30:51I've got...
00:30:56Many.
00:30:57Four, quickly.
00:31:00Yes, sir?
00:31:01Quickly!
00:31:31Yes, and the funniest part of it was, he faded it back.
00:31:59Just one drink, and then you're going home.
00:32:03As beauty commands.
00:32:04Oh, I do gallant.
00:32:05Didn't they say that in the play tonight?
00:32:07Yes, don't you remember?
00:32:09Yes.
00:32:11And then he took her in his arms, remember?
00:32:14Yes, I remember.
00:32:15But you're not a brave guardman.
00:32:17You're a very important lawyer with lots to solve tomorrow.
00:32:21That sounds very dull, Miriam.
00:32:24I'm not the romantic type, eh?
00:32:27You're the real type, Hector.
00:32:29You have brains and kindness and...
00:32:31Everything except romance, eh?
00:32:34Well, you saw how unhappily the romance ended in the play tonight.
00:32:38Sing one song.
00:32:40Oh, no, I don't.
00:32:41Just one song, and then I'll go.
00:32:43Well, all right.
00:32:45It pleases you.
00:32:46It pleases you.
00:32:47It pleases you.
00:32:48But you'll be alone.
00:32:51Oh, I don't know.
00:32:52Oh, jeez.
00:32:53And why don't you come?
00:32:58And you'll be alone.
00:32:59In the rain we must totally thwart you,
00:33:15May more than death and age
00:33:19One regret laid in life's sunshine
00:33:27Those precious moments
00:33:31Cherished through the year
00:33:35Caught hard to sigh
00:33:39Through their tears
00:33:45Love
00:33:49Your magic spell is everywhere
00:33:53Love
00:33:55I knew you well
00:33:57And found you fell
00:34:01Come
00:34:03In the heart
00:34:05My soul to me
00:34:09Make me
00:34:13Forgive
00:34:17The voice
00:34:19That will
00:34:21Whale
00:34:23Whale
00:34:31Are you happy, Miriam?
00:34:33Of course I'm happy. Why do you ask?
00:34:35I sometimes wonder if you really are.
00:34:39What more could a girl ask to make her happy?
00:34:41You've given me so much
00:34:43Too much
00:34:45Oh, that's impossible
00:34:47As long as all that pleases you
00:34:49I'm happy
00:34:51You're very beautiful
00:34:53I like to look nice for you
00:34:55That's the least I can do
00:34:57Mary
00:34:59Could you ever really love me?
00:35:05Thank you, dear
00:35:07You, darling
00:35:09You'll never know what a paradise you've made for the year
00:35:13It's like a haven in a storm
00:35:15Now you're becoming a brave guardsman again
00:35:21Good night
00:35:27Good night
00:35:29Good night
00:35:41I hit the mic
00:35:43pretty long

00:38:46I wonder where he can be.
00:38:47I wonder where he can be.
00:38:49Oh, you are my darling.
00:38:53Oh, my sweet.
00:38:54Oh, my precious lamb.
00:38:57Good night, my sweetheart.
00:38:59Give me a nice kiss.
00:39:00Give me a nice kiss.
00:39:01That's a sweet kiss.
00:39:02Oh, precious.
00:39:03You know what day tomorrow is?
00:39:04Sunday.
00:39:05My day, my day.
00:39:06And we're going to the zoo.
00:39:07You know, we're going to see the monkeys and the lion that roar and the boom and all kinds
00:39:12of little animals.
00:39:13Would that be fun?
00:39:14Now you go to sleep with pleasant dreams.
00:39:17Pleasant dreams.
00:39:19Fuller is here to see you.
00:39:21Fuller?
00:39:22Thank you, sweetheart.
00:39:23Fuller?
00:39:24Good night, my darling.
00:39:25Hello there.
00:39:26What's the matter?
00:39:27Mr. Ferguson.
00:39:28Yes, he's late.
00:39:29We were going to the opera.
00:39:30That's it.
00:39:31He can't come.
00:39:32He can't come?
00:39:33I've just left him.
00:39:34Where?
00:39:35At home at his house.
00:39:36He's ill, Marion.
00:39:37Very ill.
00:39:38Ill?
00:39:39Well, he was alright this afternoon when I left him at the office.
00:39:41I know.
00:39:42It was at the club.
00:39:43He was there with Mr. Moore, Mr. E. C. Moore, you know?
00:39:45What happened?
00:39:46Well, he was there as happy as could be, laughing at a joke.
00:39:47Mr. Moore said it happened all in a moment.
00:39:48What happened?
00:39:49He collapsed suddenly.
00:39:50He collapsed suddenly.
00:39:51Oh no, yes.
00:39:52Mr. E. C. Moore, you know?
00:39:53He collapsed suddenly.
00:39:54Mr. E. C. Moore.
00:39:55Well, he was all right this afternoon when I left him at the office.
00:39:57I know, it was at the club. He was there with Mr. Moore, Mr. E.C. Moore, you know.
00:40:01What happened?
00:40:02Well, he was there as happy as could be, laughing at a joke.
00:40:05And Mr. Moore said it happened all in a moment.
00:40:06What happened?
00:40:07He collapsed suddenly.
00:40:10He sent you here?
00:40:11Yes. His one idea was that you shouldn't worry.
00:40:14Marion, you're his very life.
00:40:17Oh, I wish I could see him.
00:40:18Of course, you can't. He's at home.
00:40:20I know, I know, I know.
00:40:22You'll want it on the telephone.
00:40:25Hello?
00:40:29Yes, Mrs. Ferguson.
00:40:34This is Marion Donald.
00:40:43Yes.
00:40:44How is he?
00:40:46Hello?
00:40:48Hello.
00:40:53She rang off.
00:40:54What did Mrs. Ferguson want?
00:40:56She said he wanted me to come over.
00:40:58I should come over immediately.
00:41:00You'd better go.
00:41:01He's asked for you and it must be serious.
00:41:03Get my back, quickly.
00:41:04Get my back, quickly.
00:41:34Good evening, Dr. Becker.

00:41:56Miss Donald, this is Dr. Becker and Dr. Conway.
00:41:57Yes, we...
00:41:58Miss Donald, this is Mr. Ferguson's secretary.
00:41:59Good evening, Dr. Beckles.
00:42:00Good evening, Fuller.
00:42:02Dr. Conway.
00:42:03Good evening, Doctor.
00:42:05Miss Donald, this is Dr. Beckles and Dr. Conway.
00:42:08Yes, this is...
00:42:10Miss Donald is Mr. Ferguson's secretary.
00:42:29Mary.
00:42:31Are you Miss Donald?
00:42:35Yes.
00:42:36Will you go in, please?
00:42:39Shall we go in?
00:42:41He asked to see you, alone.
00:42:59I'm sorry if I kept you working, but I couldn't be helped very darkly.
00:43:09Will you please make your visit as brief as possible?
00:43:12Yes, I understand.
00:43:14Mary, Mary, don't go away.
00:43:30Don't go away.
00:43:32You mustn't leave me.
00:43:34You mustn't leave me.
00:43:36You mustn't.
00:43:38I'll be all right.
00:43:40I'll be all right.
00:43:42How beautiful you are.
00:43:47Don't go away.
00:43:50Please don't leave me.
00:43:52I'll wait for you.
00:43:54I love you.
00:43:57Mary, don't leave me.
00:44:00Please kiss me.
00:44:03Kiss me.
00:44:05Mary, kiss me.
00:44:10But I love you.
00:44:11Oh, how dark it is getting.
00:44:16Mom.
00:44:20I love you.
00:44:21Oh.
00:44:22Let me wait.
00:44:23Let me wait.
00:44:24Mary.
00:44:25Mary.
00:44:26Mary.
00:44:27Mary.
00:44:28Mary.
00:44:29Mary.
00:44:30Mary.
00:44:31Mary.
00:44:32Mary.
00:44:33Mary.
00:44:34Mary.
00:44:35Mary.
00:44:36Mary.
00:44:37Mary.
00:44:38I'll see you next time.
00:45:08I told him to drive straight to the apartment, is that right?
00:45:18Paper, paper lady.
00:45:23What's that?
00:45:31That's an outrage the way they've distorted that.
00:45:34I don't need these papers to tell me what I am.
00:45:39Her eyes told me that night.
00:45:41I'll never forget those eyes.
00:45:44It seemed as though I'd stolen a part of her skull.
00:45:47Oh, it was awful.
00:45:50Well, that's past.
00:45:52You must think of your future.
00:45:54My future?
00:45:55But you're financially able to do most anything you want to now.
00:45:58I'm not touching a penny of that money.
00:46:00What?
00:46:01I'm giving it all back.
00:46:02But you need money for your boy.
00:46:04Not this money.
00:46:05When he grows up, what can I tell him when he asks me where this money came from?
00:46:10Oh, how I'd like to undo this whole awful thing.
00:46:14Well, don't get excited, Marion.
00:46:16Wait and we'll discuss the whole matter when we get to your apartment.
00:46:19I'm giving up the apartment as soon as I can.
00:46:21You are?
00:46:22I can't endure the place.
00:46:24It seems part of that mad dream.
00:46:27I must have been mad.
00:46:28Hey, you don't need Beethoven.
00:46:33Hey, that bird wasn't there.
00:46:35I know it.
00:46:35You know it, then what a place to eat.
00:46:37Listen, you punk.
00:46:39Here's my Marion Donald story for Sunday.
00:46:41The great secretary problem.
00:46:43Gee, this will set the wives up higher in a kite.
00:46:45Should a wife have a hand in choosing her husband's secretary?
00:46:48Oh, give the girls a chance.
00:46:49Or the wives will be picking them out of the old lady's home.
00:46:51And what about the secretaries?
00:46:53Ah, there's always the follies.
00:46:54There are a lot of key punchers in this bird waiting for the boss to give them a little sugar.
00:46:58Well, well, well, well, look what grandma brought.
00:47:00The old man himself.
00:47:02Who?
00:47:02Ferguson with an autograph, too.
00:47:04To Marion from H.F.
00:47:06That's Hector Ferguson, all right.
00:47:07It sure is.
00:47:08Say, he certainly done something for this town.
00:47:09He certainly did.
00:47:10Say, what's the lowdown on that bedside story when he kicked off?
00:47:13You mean about this Donald girl and the wife at the deathbed?
00:47:16Yeah.
00:47:16I got the lowdown on that.
00:47:18Pretty sad.
00:47:19Love with this Donald girl, all right.
00:47:21He was conservative, but he was no chaser.
00:47:22Hey, fellas, look what I found.
00:47:24The plot thickens.
00:47:25He's a child.
00:47:26Say, bring the box down.
00:47:30Wait a minute, you fellas.
00:47:31Wait a minute, I'll handle this.
00:47:32Oh, you're here.
00:47:33Put the punk over there.
00:47:35Say, here you are.
00:47:37Who's this, sonny, huh?
00:47:38Hunky Ferguson.
00:47:39Hunky Ferguson.
00:47:40Say, is that a story or not?
00:47:42Sounds pretty raw to me.
00:47:43Oh, the kid will never let that down.
00:47:45Well, his mother still Miss Donald, isn't she?
00:47:47Yeah.
00:47:47Hector Ferguson, isn't it?
00:47:48Yeah.
00:47:49Hey, the women will lead us up.
00:47:52Even the mayor will weep.
00:47:56Here she is.
00:47:57Well, honey, how do you do, ma?
00:47:58What are you doing?
00:47:59You can't take my baby.
00:48:00Take care of me.
00:48:00Wait a minute.
00:48:01Wait a minute.
00:48:01Wait a minute.
00:48:02Take care of me.
00:48:02Take care of me.
00:48:04Take care of me.
00:48:05Get out.
00:48:06Go, go, go.
00:48:07Go, go, go.
00:48:07Go, go, go, go.
00:48:08Go, go, go, go.
00:48:08Go, go, go, go.
00:48:09Go, go, go, go, go.
00:48:11Are you sure?
00:48:11Yes.
00:48:12Go, go, go, go.
00:48:12Get out of my way.
00:48:13Oh, my darling.
00:48:14Get out of here, all of you.
00:48:15Beats!
00:48:16Get out and stay out.
00:48:17Don't ever come back.
00:48:18Get out of here.
00:48:19Come on, get out.
00:48:20I want you to go in the ladies' house.
00:48:21Oh, my darling.
00:48:24Oh, my darling.
00:48:28I left you in bed.
00:48:29I can't be in two places at once.
00:48:31They must have stolen out of it.
00:48:38All right.
00:48:38All right.
00:48:39All right.
00:48:39All right.
00:48:40All right.
00:48:41All right.
00:48:41All right.
00:48:42All right.
00:48:43All right.
00:48:43All right.
00:48:44All right.
00:49:00Well, they've gone.
00:49:03I've got to tell them the truth.
00:49:05Tell them who Jackie's father is.
00:49:06How can you do that?
00:49:07They wouldn't believe you.
00:49:08And they'd only just talk the truth and make matters worse.
00:49:12There's only one person in the world who should tell them.
00:49:14That's the boy's father.
00:49:15Well, he doesn't even know the child's existence.
00:49:18He must be told.
00:49:19We telephone and ask him to come here now.
00:49:21Do you think he'd come with a scandal now?
00:49:23We could soon find out.
00:49:24I haven't seen him in four years.
00:49:26What difference does that make?
00:49:27This is his obligation.
00:49:28But he's married.
00:49:29Even so, this is still his obligation.
00:49:31Lake Shore, 4200.
00:49:33Do you think they could publish that?
00:49:35They could infer it.
00:49:36They're liable to say anything.
00:49:41Mr. Merrick.
00:49:42Oh, this thing is not such a mess.
00:49:44Mr. Merrick.
00:49:45The Lord Almighty never let it down.
00:49:46Mr. Merrick.
00:49:47Mr. Merrick, Junior.
00:49:48They're calling him.
00:49:52Hello?
00:49:53Mr. Merrick.
00:49:54Mr. Jack Merrick, Junior.
00:49:56Miss Donald speaking.
00:49:58Yes, I'll wait.
00:49:59I must protect him.
00:50:00I must.
00:50:01Hello?
00:50:02Yes, I'm waiting.
00:50:03Don't you see what this will do to him?
00:50:05At school and after.
00:50:06If it touches him, if he suffers through life.
00:50:08I couldn't bear it.
00:50:09I couldn't.
00:50:10Hello?
00:50:11Jack?
00:50:12This is Marion.
00:50:13Donald.
00:50:14Could you come right over to see me?
00:50:16I'm...
00:50:17I'm...
00:50:18I'm...
00:50:19I'm...
00:50:20I'm...
00:50:21I'm...
00:50:22I'm...
00:50:23I'm...
00:50:24I'm...
00:50:25I can't...
00:50:26No.
00:50:27I can't tell you over the telephone.
00:50:29It's very important.
00:50:31Very.
00:50:342460 Lakeshore Drive.
00:50:36Yes, I'll be waiting.
00:50:38All right.
00:50:43He's coming.
00:50:45That's right.
00:50:46I'm sure you'll find you've done the right thing.
00:50:49Now, when he comes, tell him everything.
00:50:52After all, you're asking nothing for yourself, but you do need his help for his son.
00:50:58You're such a good friend.
00:50:59Let me know what happens.
00:51:00I will.
00:51:01You're such a good friend.
00:51:02Not at all.
00:51:03Cheer up, Marion, and good luck.
00:51:05Thanks.
00:51:06Goodbye.
00:51:07Goodbye.
00:51:08Goodbye.
00:51:09Goodbye.
00:51:16But he's in bed.
00:51:17Get his clothes on.
00:51:19Mr. Merrick's coming.
00:51:20Who?
00:51:21I can't help.
00:51:35Mine's gonna get dressed now.
00:51:36Want to get dressed?
00:51:37Good, good, goody, goody.
00:51:42Nice, Mommy.
00:51:47There'll be some rejoicing when those medics know they've got a son and heir.
00:51:53Young medics' wife can't never have a child of her own.
00:51:57Ever since she had that motor smash-up in France,
00:51:59she's been a cripple in a wheelchair.
00:52:01And there's no heir to all those millions but our young Jackie.
00:52:06Oh, there'll be joy bells ringing all right.
00:52:10All right, please.
00:52:14You'll have to watch out if they don't try and steal him from you.
00:52:18Steal him?
00:52:20Well, if that old man Merrick got it into his head that he wanted the child
00:52:23with all his influence and money,
00:52:25we wouldn't stand a dog's chance against him.
00:52:28What are you talking about?
00:52:29Well, do you know what you're about, asking the father over here?
00:52:36But I'd watch out.
00:52:38They're an unscrupulous bunch.
00:52:40And...
00:52:41And what?
00:52:42Well, they'd have a lot on their side in the law courts
00:52:47with all the lies the newspapers are saying about you.
00:52:50The law courts?
00:52:51Can't you see what this child means to that family?
00:52:55Yes.
00:52:56I don't say as they would steal him, but it's on the cards they might.
00:53:00And those people never lose anything they go after.
00:53:04Come on, Jackie.
00:53:06Have your socks on?
00:53:06Don't dress him.
00:53:07I want to get to it.
00:53:09Listen, darling.
00:53:10Sweetheart, listen to mother.
00:53:11Be as quiet as a mouse and then I'll come back and read to you.
00:53:14Goody, goody.
00:53:21Blanche, don't go.
00:53:22Please, wait a moment.
00:53:29Here.
00:53:36Always.
00:53:39Miss Donald, please.
00:53:40Will you come in here, please, sir?
00:53:46Hello, Marion.
00:53:47Hello, Jack.
00:53:49It didn't take you long to get here.
00:53:51You asked me to come right away.
00:53:52I know.
00:53:53Something came up and I thought I might need your help.
00:53:55You can bank on that any time.
00:53:57Well, you see, it's all settled now.
00:53:59Are you sure?
00:54:00Because if there's anything I can do.
00:54:01Thanks.
00:54:03You'd rather not tell me what it is.
00:54:04Well, it's really of no importance now.
00:54:06I see.
00:54:08Well, that's that.
00:54:10You're looking very well.
00:54:11Thanks.
00:54:12So do you, little sinner.
00:54:14At three years' hard work, I guess.
00:54:15Yes.
00:54:20It's awfully good of you to come over.
00:54:22I'm sorry I got you on a wild goose chase.
00:54:24If there is anything I can do, I hope you will call on me.
00:54:26I will, yes.
00:54:27Good.
00:54:29It's my home.
00:54:30It's my home.
00:54:31It's my home here.
00:54:32It's my home.
00:54:33It's my home.
00:54:34It's my home.
00:54:35You can't get me.
00:54:36Come here to me.
00:54:37Come here to me this minute.
00:54:46Oh, my goodness.
00:54:47Oh, Mother.
00:54:48Hello, darling.
00:54:49Yes.
00:54:50I see.
00:54:51I didn't believe it.
00:54:52What?
00:54:53Well, I heard something about a child and Ferguson's will, but...
00:54:56Is that what they're saying?
00:54:57I heard something about it.
00:54:58Well, goodbye, Marion.
00:54:59Take care of yourself.
00:55:00Jack, wait, wait.
00:55:01Yes?
00:55:02Will you come with me?
00:55:03Yes.
00:55:04Yes.
00:55:05Yes.
00:55:06Yes.
00:55:07Yes.
00:55:08Yes.
00:55:09Yes.
00:55:10Yes.
00:55:11Yes.
00:55:12Yes.
00:55:13Yes.
00:55:14Yes.
00:55:15Yes.
00:55:16Yes.
00:55:17Yes.
00:55:18Yes.
00:55:19Yes.
00:55:20Yes.
00:55:21Please come with me.
00:55:23Of course.
00:55:24Now I'll lay me down to sleep.
00:55:26I pray the Lord, my soul's gift.
00:55:28I pray the Lord, my soul's gift.
00:55:30I pray the Lord, my soul's gift.
00:55:32Bless, make me be my own mother's little boy.
00:55:38Jesus, thank you, amen.
00:55:47Why didn't you're told?
00:56:03Why didn't you tell me?
00:56:16Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't I know?
00:56:18You know now. You had to know.
00:56:26How old is he?
00:56:27How old would he be?
00:56:29I can't believe it. I can't believe it.
00:56:41Where was he born? Here in Chicago?
00:56:43Yes.
00:56:44Why didn't you come to me?
00:56:46I want to stand on my own.
00:56:48Was that fair to him?
00:56:49It's a serious thing having a child.
00:56:51Yes, it is.
00:56:53What reason could you possibly have had for keeping him away from me?
00:56:56I called on you today because I felt he needed your protection.
00:56:59Of course, of course.
00:57:01Would you have let me go away today without...
00:57:03I was afraid.
00:57:04Afraid of me?
00:57:06His father?
00:57:07I was afraid you might try to take him from me.
00:57:09Marry him.
00:57:10Can you blame me?
00:57:11I know. I know. We mustn't think of that.
00:57:14We must just think of him now.
00:57:16You don't know how I've longed for something like this.
00:57:19And something just like this, too.
00:57:21You young husky, it's your dad. Your dad.
00:57:25Look at me.
00:57:26It's your own father, you monkey.
00:57:28He is like you, Jack.
00:57:32Of course, he is.
00:57:33I saw it right away.
00:57:34He's reminded me of you often.
00:57:36Really?
00:57:37Mm-hmm, really.
00:57:38I can't understand.
00:57:39What?
00:57:40Oh, nothing. Never mind.
00:57:42I've got him now, haven't I?
00:57:44I've got you now, you young Samson.
00:57:46Come out here.
00:57:51There we are.
00:57:59Say, Marry, this is a tough kid, do you know it?
00:58:01How much does he weigh?
00:58:02Thirty pounds.
00:58:03Yes, and then some.
00:58:05He's got the Merrick jaw all right, hasn't he?
00:58:07You're a Merrick, aren't you, youngster?
00:58:09Jack, you will stand by him now, won't you?
00:58:11You try and stop me.
00:58:12We must stop that rumor.
00:58:13We'll stop it, all right.
00:58:14Leave that to Dad.
00:58:16Gee, just wait till he knows about this.
00:58:18You're his father.
00:58:19Anything that must be done, you do, will you?
00:58:21Marryam, why didn't you come to me before?
00:58:36Look at us, Marryam.
00:58:38Just we three.
00:58:40Jack.
00:58:48What, is he my kiddie card?
00:58:49I'd love it.
00:58:58You know, Marryam, when you left me, I went to Paris.
00:59:02I had to get away.
00:59:03Everything here reminded me of you.
00:59:05I went crazy over there.
00:59:07Then Flip Carson came over.
00:59:09In spite of what I was doing, she seemed to understand.
00:59:12Well, we were married and then the smash-up, you know.
00:59:16Yes, I remember that day.
00:59:18They thought I was going under at first.
00:59:20I didn't care much.
00:59:21The only thing I could think of was what a weak-kneed rotter I'd been.
00:59:24And I swore to myself that if I pulled through,
00:59:27I'd try to be more of the man you wanted me to be.
00:59:30Did you, Jack?
00:59:31I swore I'd find you.
00:59:33I'd chuck Dad in the money.
00:59:35I'd find you.
00:59:36And it was that that pulled me through.
00:59:38That thought.
00:59:39Yes, Jack.
00:59:40Then when I was convalescent, they showed me poor little Flip.
00:59:43All battered up.
00:59:45So patient and brave.
00:59:47I remembered your words, you know, about being a man and sticking.
00:59:52So I stuck.
00:59:53Well, I've been working too, Marion.
00:59:55All the time.
00:59:56Oh, I'm proud of you.
00:59:58Marion.
01:00:01We've got to come together again.
01:00:04But we can't.
01:00:05We must.
01:00:06But we can't.
01:00:07Why?
01:00:08We just can't.
01:00:09Because you don't love me?
01:00:11No, I won't let myself.
01:00:13How can you dictate to yourself any more than I can?
01:00:15I won't pretend.
01:00:16You must.
01:00:17We both must.
01:00:18Why?
01:00:19Why?
01:00:20Jack, we have no moment to lose.
01:00:21The reporters were here this afternoon and they were inferring that Jackie was...
01:00:24Was what?
01:00:25Oh, what you heard.
01:00:26I'm afraid of the newspapers.
01:00:27We must stop them.
01:00:28Oh, gee.
01:00:29What time is it?
01:00:30Six o'clock.
01:00:31We can take care of the newspapers, all right.
01:00:32Now, you leave everything to me.
01:00:34Jack, I won't rest until I hear from you.
01:00:36When I get things fixed up, I'll come back and let you know.
01:00:39All right.
01:00:40I'll be here by nine o'clock anyway.
01:00:41Good.
01:00:52Goodbye.
01:00:53Goodbye.
01:00:54Goodbye.
01:00:59Oh, darling.
01:01:00Oh, my sweet.
01:01:01My sweetheart.
01:01:03Aren't you a sweet darling?
01:01:04I love you, Mother.
01:01:05Oh, do you?
01:01:06I love you.
01:01:07Oh, you sweetheart.
01:01:08Oh, how good.
01:01:09Do you want to go to bed now?
01:01:11No, of course not.
01:01:12But you have to.
01:01:13You have to go to bed.
01:01:14Oh, don't you tickle me.
01:01:15No.
01:01:16Hey, darling.
01:01:17Oh, sweet.
01:01:18Oh.
01:01:19Come on now.
01:01:20Go to bed, darling.
01:01:21No, don't tickle Mother.
01:01:23I'm sorry for you to have disturbed you so late.
01:01:36It's all right.
01:01:37Do you mind bringing the other trunks up, too?
01:01:39The two that are downstairs.
01:01:40If you, please.
01:01:41Never mind, Fred.
01:01:42We're taking just what we barely need for you and the baby myself.
01:01:45I have the babies right here.
01:01:46Fine.
01:01:47I'm sorry to see you go, miss.
01:01:48No, thanks, Fred.
01:01:49I invite you to it.
01:01:51Shout if you want anything.
01:01:52I will.
01:01:53Goodbye.
01:01:54Goodbye.
01:01:55Nice young man.
01:01:56Single, too.
01:01:57Pity we're going away.
01:01:58So you're giving it all up.
01:01:59Oh, what a relief that'll be.
01:02:00That's true, too.
01:02:01To get back to something normal.
01:02:02Something we can call our own.
01:02:03What are you going to do when you go to work?
01:02:04Oh, I don't know.
01:02:05I've got lots of ideas.
01:02:06This young Merrick's in love with you.
01:02:07You know that?
01:02:08Yes.
01:02:09Yes.
01:02:10Yes.
01:02:11Yes.
01:02:12Yes.
01:02:13Yes.
01:02:14Yes.
01:02:15Yes.
01:02:16Yes.
01:02:17Yes.
01:02:18Yes.
01:02:19Yes.
01:02:20Yes.
01:02:21Yes.
01:02:22Yes.
01:02:23Yes.
01:02:24Yes.
01:02:25Yes.
01:02:26Yes.
01:02:27Yes.
01:02:28Yes.
01:02:29Yes.
01:02:30Yes.
01:02:31Yes.
01:02:32And what's more, you're in love with him.
01:02:34No, that's impossible.
01:02:35But he's coming again tonight.
01:02:37He's promised to see that Jackie's name is protected.
01:02:39He's coming here to let me know what's happened.
01:02:44And I'm starting all over again.
01:02:47It's a clean new page.
01:02:51Is that why you're leaving, Sir Seven?
01:02:53Because you're afraid to see much of him?
01:02:55No, and I'm not afraid of anything.
01:02:57From now on, I'm going to fight back out of it all.
01:03:03Madam.
01:03:04Mr. Mallick is here.
01:03:05Oh, thanks.
01:03:06Splash, I've left some things in the other room.
01:03:08Will you bring them in here?
01:03:23Good evening.
01:03:24Good evening.
01:03:25Good evening.
01:03:26I'd like to see this child.
01:03:27I'm sorry.
01:03:28He's in bed of sleep.
01:03:29You've convinced my son pretty thoroughly that this boy is his.
01:03:32He convinced himself.
01:03:33I have further proof that he needs it.
01:03:34What was your reason for withholding the fact of the child's existence until now?
01:03:37I'd rather not discuss that.
01:03:39Well, what was your motive in calling upon us today?
01:03:41I called upon Jack.
01:03:42Why?
01:03:43Because my baby needs his father's protection.
01:03:44Jack's told me of the circumstances, and I'm prepared to do the right thing.
01:03:47Yes.
01:03:48When I say the right thing, I'll remind you that I have no heir beyond Jack.
01:03:52And this child's place in the world...
01:03:53I understand all that.
01:03:54Now, I'm willing to take this child.
01:03:56You are.
01:03:57Provided he's a fit and normal child, I was...
01:03:59Fit and normal child?
01:04:01You're robbing that child of his place in the world.
01:04:04His place in the world is with me, his own mother.
01:04:06Mother!
01:04:07What sort of a mother are you?
01:04:10How dare you?
01:04:11We can take that child from you.
01:04:13You can't.
01:04:14Can't we?
01:04:15Are you a fit person to bring up a child?
01:04:16Could you convince a court of law that you are?
01:04:18A court of law?
01:04:19Yes, a court of law.
01:04:20I'll fight you if it takes every dollar I've got in the world,
01:04:23and I'll win that child in open court.
01:04:25You couldn't.
01:04:26Couldn't I?
01:04:27Suppose I tell the court it's not Jack's child.
01:04:30You'd brand him that, eh?
01:04:31I don't know, no.
01:04:32Yes, you would.
01:04:33Yes, you would.
01:04:34You'd do anything.
01:04:35I got your number the first time I ever laid eyes on you.
01:04:37When you lured my boy up there to that place in the lake.
01:04:40You were after him then for what you thought you could get,
01:04:42and you're after him now.
01:04:45Am I?
01:04:46You are.
01:04:54I am, of course I am, and I can take him.
01:04:56Miss Donnell, please.
01:04:57You're fighting me for my son, all right?
01:04:59I'll fight you for yours.
01:05:00I'll take him from you.
01:05:01Marion, Dad.
01:05:02I forgot you to come here.
01:05:03I know, Dad, but...
01:05:04Jack, do you remember what you said this afternoon?
01:05:06That we should come back together again?
01:05:07Yes, dear.
01:05:08You love me.
01:05:09You've always loved me.
01:05:10You love our son.
01:05:11Isn't this true?
01:05:12We should never have been pardoned, should we?
01:05:13It is true, dear, it is.
01:05:14Jack!
01:05:15Jack!
01:05:16Jack, I begged you to send him away before and you failed me.
01:05:18Send him away.
01:05:19Don't fail me now.
01:05:20You must listen to me.
01:05:21It's all up, Dad.
01:05:22Please go.
01:05:23I know what I'm doing.
01:05:25Yeah, you contemptible creature.
01:05:27Go.
01:05:28Get out of here.
01:05:29Get out!
01:05:30Well, I'm not through.
01:05:33Marion.
01:05:34Marion, did you mean that?
01:05:36Of course I did.
01:05:37Then you do love me.
01:05:38I do love you, Jack.
01:05:39Oh, we'll go away at once.
01:05:40I'll never fail you again, never.
01:05:42We'll take our boy and go away.
01:05:44Just tweet dreams?
01:05:45Nothing will ever separate us again, ever.
01:05:47Nothing ever.
01:05:48We'll start all over again.
01:05:49We'll go away.
01:05:50Yes.
01:05:51You get ready.
01:05:52I'll arrange everything and come back for you.
01:05:53I'll be waiting.
01:06:13Pack everything.
01:06:15We're going away.
01:06:16We're leaving tomorrow.
01:06:17Have you changed your plans?
01:06:19Yes.
01:06:20Where are we going now?
01:06:21Well, you're up anywhere, I don't know.
01:06:24Then you're not giving everything up.
01:06:26No, I'm not giving anything up.
01:06:39You say this will smash your life.
01:06:40What have you done to my life?
01:06:41I had your best interest at heart.
01:06:43Heart, you haven't got a heart.
01:06:44You tried to run my life the way you run your business.
01:06:46I wish you were as sound as my business.
01:06:48I'm glad I'm not.
01:06:49I'm human.
01:06:50Do you think that little wife of yours
01:06:53and trusted her life to a useless, no good bum in Paris?
01:06:56I know.
01:06:57Do you realize that half the time when that child is smiling,
01:07:00that poor little body of hers is in torture?
01:07:02I know that too.
01:07:03Yes, you know.
01:07:04You know?
01:07:05And yet you can leave her in that chair of pain alone.
01:07:08Her spirit broken.
01:07:09Her heart broken.
01:07:10With nothing, nothing in the world but the memory of you,
01:07:14her husband who had left her for a creature whose name no decent person would...
01:07:18Stop it.
01:07:19Stop it.
01:07:20I haven't got a heart, eh?
01:07:21I mean human, am I?
01:07:22Have you a heart?
01:07:23Are you human?
01:07:24Stop it.
01:07:25Yes, I tell you.
01:07:26Don't I know?
01:07:27You brought all this about?
01:07:28Didn't you?
01:07:29Didn't you?
01:07:30Don't you?
01:07:37Hello, dear.
01:07:39Hello, Papa Mary.
01:07:42Hello, Jack.
01:07:43Hello, dear.
01:07:44I came with the dawn.
01:07:45Yes, dear.
01:07:46I'm coming home right now.
01:07:47I got anxious.
01:07:48I telephoned from the man's voice.
01:07:50I gathered that something must be wrong.
01:07:52No, no.
01:07:53Dad and I had to get straight on something, that's all.
01:07:56Don't you look so glum, Papa Mary.
01:07:58All right, dear.
01:07:59All right, but you shouldn't be out like this.
01:08:02Oh, it's a glorious morning.
01:08:04The sun shining and the birds are singing.
01:08:06It's good to be alive.
01:08:08And you two old fogies arguing in a musty old room.
01:08:12Can't I know what this is all about?
01:08:15Well, I'll tell you at home.
01:08:16There's a lot to tell.
01:08:17I can guess most of it.
01:08:21Did you tell Papa Mary about finding the boy?
01:08:23Yes, yes, dear.
01:08:24I did, yes.
01:08:25Can't I be in on it?
01:08:26Catherine.
01:08:27Will you go along and leave Jack here with me?
01:08:29There's nothing more.
01:08:30I'll go with you now.
01:08:32Do you want me to sail along and leave you two alone?
01:08:34All right, I will.
01:08:35No, I'll go with you.
01:08:36Jack, please.
01:08:37This may be the last thing I'll ever ask you.
01:08:40When he asks like that, you'd better stay.
01:08:43I'll sail along.
01:08:45I'll be dying to hear, though.
01:08:46I'll go with you.
01:08:47No, Frederick's is waiting.
01:08:49Frederick?
01:08:55Jack.
01:08:56What's the use?
01:08:57Let's not start all over again.
01:08:58Oh, boy.
01:08:59Don't you realize that you're all I've got in this world?
01:09:05What a beautiful morning to be going away.
01:09:21You see, madame?
01:09:22Matt, is it cold in France now?
01:09:24Pardon, madame?
01:09:25Is it cold in France now?
01:09:27Yes, in the north of France it's very cold.
01:09:30It's very cold.
01:09:31But in the south of France it's warm.
01:09:33What you call sunny.
01:09:35The sunny south of France.
01:09:37France is it now?
01:09:39I thought we were going to good old London town.
01:09:42You see, madame, you haven't had any sleep all night.
01:09:45No, no, but there.
01:09:46Well, we'll sleep on a train.
01:09:48You might.
01:09:49Mr. Jacky left something to say about me.
01:09:51There's your bell.
01:09:58What's the matter?
01:10:00I'm what the Americans term, all in.
01:10:03My feet will go just so far and no further.
01:10:09We'd better send some of these toys to the poor little boys in the hospital.
01:10:12We'll never pack them.
01:10:16Madame.
01:10:19What is it?
01:10:21A cuppled lady.
01:10:23Ask her to come in.
01:10:27Mrs. Merrick.
01:10:28Watch out for trouble now.
01:10:30Go in the other room.
01:10:31I'll be glad to get back to London.
01:10:33All right, ladies, wait upstairs.
01:10:35Yes, madame.
01:10:37Nice, wide doors.
01:10:40In here?
01:10:41I can manage, thank you.
01:10:44Miss Thomas?
01:10:45Yes.
01:10:46May I come in?
01:10:47Yes, do.
01:10:50Yes.
01:10:54I'm Flip Merrick, Jack's wife.
01:10:55How do you do?
01:10:57I'm glad I found you up.
01:10:58It's an unearthly hour for calling, isn't it?
01:11:00It's quite all right.
01:11:02Could we talk for a minute?
01:11:03Yes.
01:11:05Where should we sit?
01:11:09Do you mind if I smoke?
01:11:10No, not at all.
01:11:11I'll get you a match.
01:11:15I'll get you a match.
01:11:22Looks like moving day.
01:11:23You going away?
01:11:24Yes.
01:11:25We're leaving today.
01:11:26I'm glad I caught you.
01:11:32Is this not?
01:11:33No, not now.
01:11:35Do sit down.
01:11:36Marian Don.
01:11:46Jack told me about finding you yesterday.
01:11:49Though I only saw him for a moment he could talk of nothing else.
01:11:51And of the boy, too.
01:11:53Yes.
01:11:54I suppose you're wondering why I'm here.
01:11:56I'll tell you why.
01:11:57I've just left Papa Merrick's house.
01:11:59Jack and his father have been at it all night.
01:12:01They're nervous wrecks, both of them.
01:12:03And they won't let me in on what it's all about.
01:12:06You don't know?
01:12:07They wouldn't tell me a thing, but...
01:12:09I have a pretty shrewd idea.
01:12:12Jack said he'd have lots to tell me when he got home, but...
01:12:15I did feel that while he and his father were apparently deciding so much...
01:12:19We two women should have some say in the matter ourselves.
01:12:22Yes.
01:12:23Miss Donald, I've loved Jack Merrick since I was a child in arms.
01:12:28I've always been teased about it.
01:12:29You know, I didn't know about you until after Jack and I were married.
01:12:33No?
01:12:35He told me about your elopement and...
01:12:37Ever since then I've wanted to meet you.
01:12:39Meet me?
01:12:41I've thanked you a thousand times from the bottom of my heart.
01:12:44Why do you thank me?
01:12:46I think you had a great deal to do in the moulding of Jack's character.
01:12:49He's been splendid.
01:12:51So kind and gentle and...
01:12:53May I ask why you... why you came here?
01:12:55Because I want you to take him.
01:12:58Take him?
01:12:59What do you mean?
01:13:00I mean, take him.
01:13:02Not only because he's madly in love with you, but...
01:13:05There's the boy and there's...
01:13:07Because it's right.
01:13:09And you love him?
01:13:11Of course.
01:13:13And loving him, you could give him up to me.
01:13:16What right have I to hold on to someone because I happen to love him?
01:13:19What can I be to him?
01:13:21I'm only half a wife.
01:13:24Isn't love finer than our bodies?
01:13:27Nothing's finer than a son.
01:13:29He wants children.
01:13:31Who doesn't want a child of their own?
01:13:33Yes, I see.
01:13:35I don't say this thing doesn't hurt, but...
01:13:38Love's a beautiful thing.
01:13:40It's the only thing.
01:13:42And nothing fine comes without its pain, does it?
01:13:45You found that out when your baby came, didn't you?
01:13:50It's because I love him, I can give him up.
01:13:58Because you love him, you can give him up?
01:14:02Yes.
01:14:13But I don't love him.
01:14:15No.
01:14:17Are you being quite true to yourself?
01:14:20Yes, I am, I am.
01:14:22Mrs. Merrick, whatever you may think of me, please know this.
01:14:25I have no intention.
01:14:27I don't love Jack.
01:14:29My plans are made.
01:14:31Yesterday when he came here, he told me all about you.
01:14:34Of his love, his great love for you, and he...
01:14:36I know, Miss Donald.
01:14:38Please.
01:14:40Is that the youngster?
01:14:42Yes, he wakes at the crack of dawn.
01:14:43Could I?
01:14:44Would you like to see him?
01:14:45Please.
01:14:46You don't mind the muddle?
01:14:47Oh, not at all.
01:14:49Shall we go?
01:14:51Thank you so much.
01:15:00And then we're going, we're going out walking,
01:15:03and we're going to see the flowers,
01:15:05and we're going to have a beautiful time.
01:15:10Oh, hello, curly head.
01:15:12Good morning.
01:15:14Good morning to you, I'm sure.
01:15:16Oh, he's good-armed.
01:15:18I have a picture of Jack as a child that looks not like him.
01:15:21Oh, could I?
01:15:28How old is he?
01:15:30Just over three.
01:15:32Oh, bless him.
01:15:34What's his name?
01:15:35Jackie.
01:15:36Jackie.
01:15:38Well, well, well.
01:15:39We are.
01:15:42How would you like to go for a ride, hmm?
01:15:49Jack.
01:15:50I've just left Dad.
01:15:51It's all over.
01:15:52I left him actually crying.
01:15:53It was awful.
01:15:54I'm on my way home now to tell Flip.
01:15:57Your wife is here.
01:15:58Here?
01:15:59Yes, she's in there with the baby.
01:16:00But...
01:16:01Without knowing what we had planned,
01:16:02behind her back she came here to give you to me.
01:16:04She said she could give you up because she loved you so much.
01:16:07But...
01:16:08I told her I did not love you and that such a thing was impossible.
01:16:10But why?
01:16:11Why?
01:16:12Because her sacrifice showed me what a horrible, selfish love our love would be.
01:16:17She showed me a finer love.
01:16:19Jack, you've got to stand by her.
01:16:22You're going on with her.
01:16:23But what about you and me?
01:16:24Our love will be a greater love if we do our duty.
01:16:26Our duty is to our son.
01:16:28Are you thinking of him?
01:16:29Yes, I am.
01:16:30He needs my protection.
01:16:31You've no right to deny him that.
01:16:33Do you think I haven't longed for him to know and love his father?
01:16:36But Jack, I want to be worthy of his love.
01:16:38I don't want to sink any lower ever.
01:16:40Sink lower?
01:16:41What do you mean?
01:16:42I'm not going to rob that brave little woman of her life.
01:16:44I can't.
01:16:45I won't.
01:16:46But you'd rob me of my son.
01:16:47What can you do for him alone?
01:16:49You called on me yesterday and I came, didn't I?
01:16:51In the position you admit you've placed yourself in.
01:16:54Could you protect him as I could?
01:16:56Could you?
01:16:57Here we go for a long ride.
01:17:00Jack, give me a long ride.
01:17:02Whee!
01:17:03Here we go.
01:17:04What?
01:17:05Hello, Jack.
01:17:07Wasn't it a nerve, out calling at this hour of the morning?
01:17:10Oh, I was dying to see him.
01:17:12I simply had to.
01:17:13Now I've seen him, I'm satisfied.
01:17:15Yes, he's fine, isn't he?
01:17:16Thank you for letting me see him, Miss Donald.
01:17:18You'll forgive me for bursting in on you like this, won't you?
01:17:22I'm glad you came.
01:17:30Do you two want to talk?
01:17:31Oh, no, no.
01:17:33Little curly head.
01:17:35You know, Miss Donald, he confided in me a profound secret.
01:17:39He's dying for a pony.
01:17:41I want a pony.
01:17:42No, I foolishly told him that if he was staying in Chicago instead of going off to foreign parks,
01:17:47that I'd give him one.
01:17:49That Shetland pony, you know.
01:17:51Yes.
01:17:52I bought a Shetland.
01:17:53Think he could be trained to pull this chariot of mine around in the country,
01:17:56but Jack wouldn't hear of it.
01:17:58He had sordid visions of smash-ups and runaways.
01:18:00I told him he wouldn't be losing very much if I wanted to get over.
01:18:02No, please, don't.
01:18:03Don't say that.
01:18:04I'm sorry, Jack.
01:18:06I was only teasing.
01:18:07I think you'd better take Mama Flip home.
01:18:09She's tired.
01:18:10Goodbye, Marion Donald.
01:18:11Goodbye.
01:18:12Goodbye, you little curly head.
01:18:13Goodbye.
01:18:14Goodbye.
01:18:15Goodbye.
01:18:16Goodbye, you little curly head.
01:18:17Goodbye.
01:18:18Goodbye.
01:18:19Goodbye.
01:18:20Goodbye, you little curly head.
01:18:22Goodbye.
01:18:23Goodbye.
01:18:40Good night, White Dog.
01:18:53Now we'll pick out the toys for the poor little orphan boys who have no nice own to live in
01:19:03and no mother to care for them.
01:19:23Miss Potter, put his hat and coat on and yours, too.
01:19:47Don't say anything, go.
01:19:54Come along, Jackie.
01:19:56Oh, there's my old Jerry's arm.
01:20:02Come on.

01:21:32Come on.
01:21:57Mommy, tell me a line.
01:21:59Darling, do you remember the lady that was here in the wheelchair?
01:22:03Yes.
01:22:04Do you know what she said about the pony?
01:22:07Yes.
01:22:07Would you like to ride on the pony?
01:22:11Yes!
01:22:12But you'd like to ride on the pony?
01:22:15Yes!
01:22:17Everybody!
01:22:18Can you see her when you're really excited?
01:22:20Probably not the time.
01:22:22The only bed still is too late.
01:22:23No, that's about two.
01:22:25Nothing.
01:22:26Yucka!
01:22:28Would you, darling?
01:22:29Yes.
01:22:31Take him over.
01:22:33Stay with him always.
01:22:36Go.
01:22:37Go.
01:22:38Let's go.
01:22:45Come along.
01:22:47We'll go right up the pony.
01:22:54Jackie!
01:22:54Jackie, come back to me!
01:22:55Jackie, come back!
01:23:02You know, Mother likes to see your car outside.
01:23:05Like that.
01:23:15Jackie!
01:23:18Jackie!
01:23:19Oh, Jackie!
01:23:21Oh!
01:23:22Oh!
01:23:26Oh.
01:23:29Oh.
01:23:30Oh.
01:23:31Oh, no.
01:23:33Oh.
01:23:33Oh, my God.
01:24:03If I get a $5 million, I don't want to buy too much.
01:24:07And I'll buy it for $5 million.
01:24:08You got it.
01:24:10You got it?
01:24:12Can I buy it?
01:24:13You got it?
01:24:15All right, then.
01:24:17Add this.
01:24:18If we can get an appropriation for $5 million...
01:24:22... can I get it?
01:24:23What if it does?
01:24:24A little bit?
01:24:25No.
01:24:26I don't want to buy too much.
01:24:27All right, then.
01:24:29Add this.
01:24:30If we can get an appropriation for five million dollars more,
01:24:33we can get this over.
01:24:35I know this is the barber.
01:24:37That's why I'm telling you.
01:24:38Five million more would be enough.
01:24:40Wait a minute.
01:24:41Wait a minute, will you?
01:24:42I have to put it all around.
01:24:43Say, listen, you.
01:24:44That's all right, clinical.
01:24:45Listen, listen.
01:24:46Will you stop that pussycatting and have that child's hair cut?
01:24:51You'll have him looking like a blooming pundit.
01:24:53Well, I'd rather he look like that than look like a girl.
01:24:56Now, you keep your nose out of this and tend to your own affairs.
01:24:59I suppose he ain't my affairs, eh?
01:25:01Say another word out of you and you're fired.
01:25:03Oh, fire yourself, you old fussbudget.
01:25:06Yes.
01:25:07Now, you do that right.
01:25:08Hello.
01:25:09Madame.
01:25:10No.
01:25:11I have laid it down for finger waves, ma'am.
01:25:12Well, you better go and do your fingering right now.
01:25:14I don't think she doesn't.
01:25:15Madame, but I cannot say.
01:25:16Wait a minute, just a moment, please.
01:25:17Madame, please.
01:25:18I cannot say you.
01:25:20Say, listen.
01:25:21Listen.
01:25:22Will you please cut this boy's hair?
01:25:24You're going to make me so nervous.
01:25:26I'll make you nervous.
01:25:27I will tell you what's the matter with you.
01:25:29You know his father don't want to get a hair cut.
01:25:30Oh, don't you?
01:25:31Get out of here.
01:25:32Get out of here.
01:25:33What's all the shooting for?
01:25:35Mr. Jack, just see what they've done to him.
01:25:37They've almost ruined him.
01:25:38Who did that?
01:25:39Your father.
01:25:40He said he didn't like the curls,
01:25:41just made him look like a little girl,
01:25:42and so he had the man cut them all off.
01:25:44That's what he did.
01:25:45It's all right, Mrs. Potter.
01:25:46It's not so bad.
01:25:47We can fix it.
01:25:48I don't know.
01:25:49Chicago.
01:25:50Ha ha ha ha ha!
01:25:53Say, did he mean me?
01:25:59You ought to know.
01:26:00You're from Chicago.
01:26:03Yes, Chicago.
01:26:04Hello, hello.
01:26:06This is Mr. Merrick again.
01:26:09Now take this letter please.
01:26:11Josh Carson, Chicago Chemical Works, Chicago, Illinois.
01:26:19Dear Josh, our thoughts will be with you on Sunday
01:26:23in memory of dear little Flip.
01:26:28A year slips by quickly, doesn't it?
01:26:32Say, Jack, Jack, I'm sending a letter to Granddad Carson.
01:26:37Anything you ought to say?
01:26:38No, just give him my love.
01:26:40I wrote him this morning and told him how we missed little Flip.
01:26:42Poor old fellow, he must be pretty lonely.
01:26:45Jackie is very well and sends his love.
01:26:47Well, he's going a mile a minute.
01:26:51Oh, Dad, tell him Miss Potter will send him a postcard from London.
01:26:56We're sailing for England tomorrow night.
01:27:01Miss Potter will send you a postcard from London.
01:27:04We shall discharge her immediately on arriving there
01:27:07for impudence, impert...
01:27:13Hey, read that back to me, will you?
01:27:15What?
01:27:16No, I can't understand you.
01:27:19Are you talking English?
01:27:21I asked you to read that letter back to me.
01:27:24Do you get that?
01:27:26Do you get that?
01:27:29My dear young woman,
01:27:31will you please read that letter back to me?
01:27:34There, there, no.
01:27:35Well, take it easy, take it easy.
01:27:39These New York people,
01:27:41they're all the same.
01:27:42All right, I'll say, ship.
01:27:43Hello.
01:27:44All right, miss.
01:27:45Now, will you please read the letter back to me?
01:27:47I say, will you please read the letter back to me?
01:27:50Dear Josh, I thought we'll be with you on Sunday in memory of dear little Flip.
01:28:01Your past is so quickly, doesn't it?
01:28:04Little Jackie, Jackie is very well.
01:28:09And sends his love.
01:28:13Sends his love?
01:28:15Growing.
01:28:16He's growing a mile a minute.
01:28:20He's growing a mile a minute.
01:28:22I can't hear you very distinctly.
01:28:25Jack, Jack, Jack, this is Marion.
01:28:32What?
01:28:34It's Marion.
01:28:35Jack, it's Marion.
01:28:37Jackie, I found her.
01:28:39I found her, Jackie.
01:28:41I found her.
01:28:55I found her, Jackie.
01:29:25I found her.
