00:27:07The End

00:27:08Well, come in.

00:27:09Yes, come in.

00:27:10Yes.

00:27:15Pardon me.

00:27:20Where is it?

00:27:21This is Dr. North.

00:27:22I want to see you.

00:27:24He ain't in.

00:27:26Besides, he is very sick.

00:27:28I said I wanted to see you.

00:27:29Open this door.

00:27:30I'll tell him when he comes back.

00:27:32If you don't open this door,

00:27:33I'm going to break it in.

00:27:36It won't be necessary.

00:27:38Can't you see I'm coming?

00:27:43Don't strike me.

00:27:44It's about time you and I had a little talk.

00:27:47Talk?

00:27:48Certainly.

00:27:49Besides, I have something to tell you, too.

00:27:50Come in.

00:27:51There's something I want to tell you, too.

00:27:53No, no, please.

00:27:53Me first.

00:27:54Now, I, Ivan Mikhail Szybanski,

00:27:55will tell you the truth.

00:27:56And this is official.

00:27:57I am the one with your entrance.

00:27:59Just what I heard.

00:28:00No, no, no, no.

00:28:00You don't understand.

00:28:01I am not the baby's father,

00:28:03and she is not the baby's mother.

00:28:05What?

00:28:05For publicity.

00:28:07For her next picture.

00:28:13I guess I've been an awful sap.

00:28:15No question about it.

00:28:17Did somebody want to get off this train?

00:28:19Get off?

00:28:20Now, who would want to get off a beautiful train like this?

00:28:24Thank you very much, Mr. Conductor.

00:28:25Thank you very kindly.

00:28:26See you later.

00:28:28Nice fella.

00:28:28But how did you know there was a freight car on the track?

00:28:33Because I looked out of the wind and saw a paddle.

00:28:35A paddle?

00:28:36A paddle's a light signal.

00:28:38A light signal?

00:28:40Why didn't you say so?

00:28:46Hey, Jerry!

00:28:52That was Jerry Mulligan, driving the 281.

00:28:55Don't think he saw me.

00:28:56He probably heard you.

00:28:58I don't think he could have, do you?

00:29:01Look, Miss Pottle, let's go in and see if we can help April with the babies.

00:29:05Oh, dear, yes.

00:29:05I just love babies.

00:29:08You must tell me more about the railroad business.

00:29:12There ain't any more.

00:29:13Look, come along, Jack.

00:29:14Come.

00:29:15I'll see you in the observation car later.

00:29:17Yes, but put that quiz program to bed first, will you?

00:29:20I think you got something there.

00:29:34This entry's out.

00:29:35Yes, sir.

00:29:36Do you wish to order?

00:29:38Oh, I'll take care of that later.

00:29:40I'm waiting for a lady.

00:29:41Yes, sir.

00:29:46Hey, buddy.

00:29:49Buddy.

00:29:52How did Notre Dame come out?

00:29:59They won.

00:30:06What score?

00:30:12Six for nothing.

00:30:21Who made the touchdown?

00:30:27Here.

00:30:28You take it.

00:30:38I'll lay out is that it won't take long to get the guy that pulled that snatch.

00:30:42Huh?

00:30:42The person, kidnap us.

00:30:44Oh, I'll lay out is that it won't take long to get the guy that pulled that snatch.

00:30:55You know.

00:30:58Get off.

00:31:14that the kid was hot, but they made it stick.

00:31:17And they'll bring in this mob, too.

00:31:20177 years.

00:31:21Yeah.

00:31:23Oh, you've got to match him.

00:31:33Okay, sir, don't slow it.

00:31:45Oh, come in.

00:31:46Say, Patsy, I was wondering...

00:31:48Uh, well, we'll be running along now, Miss Pottswell.

00:31:51You must be tired.

00:31:52Oh, no, it's only three minutes to nine.

00:31:54What time do you get tired?

00:31:56I never do until I've heard Renfrew of the Mountain.

00:31:58He's on the radio at nine o'clock.

00:32:00I haven't missed him in 47 weeks.

00:32:02Well, lady, there's a swell radio in the cocktail lounge.

00:32:05Oh, yeah.

00:32:06Oh, but I couldn't go there alone with all those men.

00:32:09Well, she can go with you.

00:32:10Yeah, that...

00:32:11Oh, that would be lovely.

00:32:12Oh, yes, I've always wanted to meet Renfrew.

00:32:16Well, hurry, we've only got one minute.

00:32:17Yeah, but somebody's got to take care of the baby.

00:32:20I'll take care of him.

00:32:21Say, what about our date?

00:32:22Yeah, yeah.

00:32:23Go ahead, have a good time.

00:32:24Yeah, have a good time.

00:32:26With Renfrew?

00:32:35Kind of a cute kid, ain't he?

00:32:40I was just trying to cover him up.

00:32:42So I noticed.

00:32:43If you need any help, I'll be right out here.

00:33:01It's Renfrew.

00:33:02Oh, thank goodness.

00:33:03You're right.

00:33:04It is Renfrew.

00:33:08Stand where you are, Jack Dalton, and you'd better reach for the sky.

00:33:11No, you don't, Renfrew.

00:33:13I've been saving this .45 slug just for you.

00:33:16Ow!

00:33:17Oh, Renfrew, are you hurt?

00:33:19Let's shoot!

00:33:19You've never touched me.

00:33:20Oh, Renfrew, darling, you've saved me from a fate too horrible to think about.

00:33:24I don't know how to reward you.

00:33:26Ridding the country of a skunk like that is reward enough, Melinda.

00:33:29But surely...

00:33:30That's the soft light I see dancing in your eyes.

00:33:33Renfrew, darling, you may kiss me.

00:33:36Will Renfrew kiss Melinda?

00:33:38Listen in at the same time tomorrow night, ladies and gentlemen,

00:33:41for the further adventures of Renfrew of the Mounted,

00:33:43presented each weekday evening by the makers of...

00:33:48Renfrew.

00:33:52Do you think you'll kiss her?

00:33:53I really don't.

00:33:55Honest, I don't.

00:33:56Well, we'll know tomorrow night anyway.

00:33:59I can hardly wait.

00:34:01Say, what are you doing here?

00:34:03The baby.

00:34:04Is it all right?

00:34:05That's what I've come to tell you about.

00:34:06You mean you walked out on him?

00:34:08Well, I'll take care of him.

00:34:09I really ought to go to bed anyway.

00:34:11Oh, I wouldn't think of it, Miss Parkwell.

00:34:13Good night.

00:34:14Good night.

00:34:14Thanks.

00:34:16Say, what ails you?

00:34:18I was just thinking.

00:34:19Do you always aspire when you think?

00:34:21No, no, no, Pat.

00:34:22Look into it.

00:34:23It's about a kid.

00:34:24Ah, you were a sweetheart to get that baby for us.

00:34:26You know, I think I'm beginning to go for you.

00:34:28Yes, yes, yes.

00:34:29That's nice.

00:34:29That's sweat.

00:34:30But the baby is a mole.

00:34:31What's that got to do with my going for you?

00:34:33Or aren't you interested?

00:34:34Sure I am.

00:34:35You know I am.

00:34:36I was reading in the papers.

00:34:37Oh, if you want to keep this conversation strictly impersonal, all right.

00:34:41Oh, no, no, no.

00:34:41Don't get me wrong.

00:34:42I'm worried.

00:34:43About what?

00:34:45177 years.

00:34:46What are you mumbling about?

00:34:48A guy doesn't have to be any more than 60 or 70, does he?

00:34:50Well, how could he serve 177 years?

00:34:53For what?

00:34:53That's what I've been trying to tell you.

00:34:55And I've been trying to tell you something too, Mr. Monaghan.

00:34:58But if you're not in the mood, I guess you're not in the mood.

00:35:00Good night.

00:35:01Patsy.

00:35:07What do you want?

00:35:09Is that really your face?

00:35:18Excuse me, buddy.

00:35:19I left this to your mind.

00:35:21Ah, friendship is a wonderful thing.

00:35:24Now that we have a perfect understanding, you feel better and I feel better.

00:35:27Yeah, sure, sure.

00:35:28How about a drink?

00:35:29No, no, no, thank you.

00:35:30I don't drink after dinner.

00:35:31No.

00:35:31But don't let it stop you.

00:35:33Oh, no, no, thanks.

00:35:33I don't drink after dinner either.

00:35:35Oh.

00:35:37Excuse me.

00:35:48Oh, but listen, kiddo, I've apologized.

00:35:54Oh, sure.

00:35:55Sure, you've apologized.

00:35:57I don't know what I could have been thinking about.

00:36:02It's been so long that, well, just seeing you again sort of pardon me if I seem to intrude.

00:36:07It's quite all right.

00:36:08I was leaving anyway.

00:36:09Oh, but honey, please.

00:36:10Oh, wait.

00:36:11Now, now, wait.

00:36:11Now, wait, my young friend.

00:36:12We must have a talk.

00:36:13Yeah, about what?

00:36:14About Miss Tremaine and you.

00:36:15Sit down, please.

00:36:16Sit down.

00:36:18Who are you?

00:36:20What do you mean, who am I?

00:36:21Dr. Harvey North, that's who.

00:36:23And what does that mean?

00:36:25I don't expect you to understand, but it means ten years of study and sweat and sacrifice,

00:36:30of working for humanity instead of for audience.

00:36:32It means that someday I'm going to have the finest clinic that science can dream up,

00:36:36a place where I can patch up youngsters the way you patch up film.

00:36:40It's nice.

00:36:41It's very nice.

00:36:42And what would such clinic cost?

00:36:45Fifty thousand dollars?

00:36:46I could build a pip.

00:36:47And how much have you got now?

00:36:54If somebody would suddenly hand me seventy-five dollars, I'd have it even hundred.

00:36:58So, you would ask her to give up her future, her career,

00:37:02for this, this silly thing you call love.

00:37:05Would you do that to her?

00:37:07Believe me, my young friend.

00:37:09You too?

00:37:10It won't work.

00:37:11Oh, well, all right, all right.

00:37:13You don't have to blueprint it for me.

00:37:15I can figure it out for myself.

00:37:17Giving up a girl like that isn't so easy.

00:37:21But I guess you're right.

00:37:23When was I wrong?

00:37:24She's not for me.

00:37:25Believe me, my young friend.

00:37:27It is best you do not see her anymore.

00:37:29That will make it easier for her.

00:37:32You must stay out of her life, but completely.

00:37:37Okay, you win.

00:37:39Good.

00:37:39We're shaking that.

00:37:41One thing.

00:37:43Just don't you try any tricks.

00:37:45Me?

00:37:45With me, it's strictly business.

00:37:47Mm-hmm.

00:38:12Thanks.

00:38:19Hey, what's the idea?

00:38:22Right.

00:38:24Red cross.

00:38:25Well, I'm not through with that yet.

00:38:27Oh.

00:38:29I beg your pardon.

00:38:35Pardon me.

00:38:55Well, I beg your pardon.

00:38:57Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:01Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:09Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:12Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:13Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:14Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:15Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:16Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:20Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:24Well, I beg your pardon.

00:39:39Cigarette.

00:39:53Here, here, the chest.

00:40:08I was wondering if I could borrow your paper.

00:40:10Oh, sure. Help yourself.

00:40:12See, Mike, would you mind giving me a hand with my suitcase?

00:40:14I can't get it open.

00:40:15Why, sure. Sure.

00:40:47Thanks a lot, Mike. That was swell of you.

00:40:49Oh, that's all right. In time at all.

00:41:05Oh, dear. Oh, please. Oh, you mustn't. Oh, not here. After all, I hardly know you. Oh, dear. Oh, please.

00:41:21Oh, well, if you insist. You may kiss me, Renfrew.

00:41:31Oh. Which way did he go?

00:41:37He went that way. Oh. I hardly know what to say. Oh, I know just how you feel.

00:41:47Confidentially. I'm that way about Donald Duck.

00:41:50Really? Mm-hmm. Oh.

00:41:57Well, it's the high up there.

00:41:58Well, you come right in here. There's plenty of room.

00:42:00Besides, if Renfrew comes back, you won't have so far to fall.

00:42:03Well, that's right. Yeah. Well, thank you.

00:42:06Perfectly. Welcome.

00:42:08I'm not used to sleeping alone. Back home, always sleep with Richard.

00:42:12Richard?

00:42:13Yes. Richard's the cat. It's really a girl cat, but we always call it Richard.

00:42:17Oh, you do.

00:42:19Well, good night. Good night.

00:42:22I hope I'm not crowding the baby.

00:42:24Oh, no. Why, when I was his age, we used to sleep 13 in a bed.

00:42:29Weren't you superstitious?

00:42:30No, we...

00:42:32Good night, Miss Popple.

00:42:34Good night.

00:42:35Good night.

00:43:05Good night.

00:43:07Good night.

00:43:10Good night.

00:43:20Good night.

00:43:24Good night.

00:43:25Good night.

00:43:26Good night.

00:43:28Good night.

00:43:50Miss Popple, would you please get rid of that Popple?

00:43:54Oh, of course.

00:44:10What do you want?

00:44:15I've got to talk to you.

00:44:17Shhh.

00:44:24Shhh.

00:44:30Shhh.

00:44:33Say, what's the matter? Have you got Owl's blood in you? Why don't you go to bed?

00:44:36I can't sleep. It's about that baby. It's hot.

00:44:40What am I supposed to do? Stay up all night and fan it?

00:44:42Oh, it's not that kind of hot. It's been snatched. Kidnapped.

00:44:47Oh, stop it. Oh, don't be...

00:44:49Are you telling me that you stole that baby?

00:44:51Not me. But I'm an accomplice.

00:44:53A accomplice? Do you know what that means?

00:44:56Yeah. 177 years.

00:44:59Oh.

00:45:01But what are we going to do about it?

00:45:02We. Include me out. We...

00:45:06Wait a minute. I think I've got an idea.

00:45:10Good. Shhh.

00:45:23Here. You take it from here.

00:45:25But fancy.

00:45:28Ha!

00:45:40Shhh.

00:45:43Shhh.

00:45:44You don't want to get me in a jam, do you?

00:45:51Give me a break, will you? Please.

00:46:00Shhh.

00:46:01Shhh.

00:46:02Hey.

00:46:03How would you like to hear the story about the three bears?

00:46:08Shhh.

00:46:10Huh.

00:46:11Now we're going somewheres.

00:46:14Well, now, let me see.

00:46:19Once upon a time, there was three bears.

00:46:24A papa bear. A great big bear like that.

00:46:28And a mummy bear about that size.

00:46:31And a teeny weeny little bear.

00:46:34Well...

00:46:35About your size.

00:46:36Well, one day, they decided to go out for a little stroll.

00:46:42You know.

00:46:43Just like bears always do.

00:46:46You understand, don't you?

00:46:47Sure.

00:46:50Well...

00:46:50Little Goldilocks came along.

00:46:53Now there was a swell girl.

00:46:55She had everything.

00:46:57You know the kind of a girl I mean, don't you?

00:46:59Sure you did.

00:47:00Well...

00:47:01She spots this joint over there.

00:47:04And she makes for it.

00:47:17What's the hitch, superintendent?

00:47:18There's a flood up the valley.

00:47:19We've got to get these gondolas up there in a hurry,

00:47:21or the whole town will go out.

00:47:23That 1600 won't make it fast enough,

00:47:25so I'm taking the kettle off the limit.

00:47:32There's a baby pulled porridge.

00:47:36She...

00:47:38She...

00:47:39She...

00:47:39She ate it all up.

00:47:41And then she wanted to go upstairs.

00:47:44She was upstairs and...

00:47:48And, uh...

00:47:50She was...

00:47:52She was asleep.

00:48:06Come on, Mike.

00:48:07Open up.

00:48:11Listen.

00:48:12The train is stopped, and this is our chance to get the baby back to its family.

00:53:26Oh, dear. Oh, Mr. Ravansky. We must do something.

00:53:29Please, please, Miss Pottle. This is not I.

00:53:33Yes, but the baby's gone. Somebody's taken the baby. Somebody's taken the baby? Something wrong.

00:53:36Something wrong? What are you standing here for? Do something. You heard it. The baby's gone.

00:53:40Where? Where? When? How? What's the difference? I demand action. Go. Call the police quickly.

00:53:44I'll get a message off at the next station. We pass there in a minute. Oh, wait.

00:53:47Wait, nothing. Go. I demand action. You don't understand. Oh, this is dreadful.

00:53:51Oh, look, Miss Pottle. It's awfully late. Oh, but I got tired. Well, try and get tired.

00:53:56If it isn't something, it's something else. Please. I've got to talk to you.

00:54:00Talk, talk, talk. Tonight I sleep. Tomorrow I talk. Please, you must listen. That baby is hot.

00:54:04Why do I care about his temperature? Oh, oh. Try and understand.

00:54:08Mike didn't know about it when he got the kid, but it had been kidnapped. Snatched.

00:54:12Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Kidnapped. Snitched.

00:54:15Yeah. You mean yourself? What are you standing here for?

00:54:17Let's stop the conductor. Don't let him stand for the police. Come on.

00:54:20What do you think? I've been trying to tell you.

00:54:22Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:54:28Mr. Conductor. Mr. Conductor. I thought it over. I changed my mind.

00:54:31Yes? You what? We've decided it is better. We do not call the police.

00:54:34Yes, you know, Mrs. Tremaine being such a famous person, is it all...

00:54:37Oh, it's too late. I just put the message off.

00:54:39Well, you don't understand. I'm telling you, we do not want the police.

00:54:42And I'm telling you, you've got them.

00:54:44They get on at Harrisburg.

00:54:46Oh, but they can't. Oh, please. What are we going to do?

00:54:49What are we going to do?

00:54:53It's terrific. Sensational. Is it?

00:54:55I want to solve the whole thing.

00:54:57That's fine. Solve what?

00:55:00The baby's hot, no?

00:55:01Yes.

00:55:02Snitch, no? Yes.

00:55:03Well, we haven't got it, so what are we worrying about?

00:55:05What are we wor... That's right.

00:55:21Say, how did you get in here?

00:55:26Why aren't you asleep?

00:55:38No.

00:55:45Will you please get Dr. North right away?

00:55:46Yes, ma'am.

00:55:52Come on. You better sit out and take these things off.

00:55:55We've got to make this thing look right.

00:56:01That's right.

00:56:13Something the matter?

00:56:15Oh, Harvey, it isn't me. It's... It's the baby.

00:56:23Well, there must be something wrong.

00:56:26He's... He's so wide awake.

00:56:28I don't see things are wrong in that.

00:56:31But it's... It's late. He... He should be asleep.

00:56:34Shouldn't he?

00:56:35Maybe... Maybe he isn't tired.

00:56:38Well, babies are just like grown folks.

00:56:43And they'll sleep, they wake up.

00:56:46Is that right?

00:56:47Oh, but, uh... I'll stick around and make sure that he gets back to sleep.

00:56:53Oh, please don't close that. I had to call Mike in to open it for me.

00:56:56You mean that Mike came in here to open...

00:56:58Uh-huh.

00:57:01Oh.

00:57:03What's the matter?

00:57:05Oh, nothing, nothing. Everything is just dandy.

00:57:08It's a lovely bag.

00:57:10And, uh, don't you worry about the baby either. He's gonna be fine.

00:57:14Oh, I'm so glad.

00:57:18I'm so glad.

00:57:20Ah!

00:57:21Isn't he beautiful?

00:57:23Yeah.

00:57:24They all are.

00:57:25Gee, Harvey, I'd love to have a little fella just like that.

00:57:28Wouldn't you?

00:57:30Yes, of course.

00:57:32Anybody would.

00:57:34Put on a staff doctor's salary.

00:57:36Why, Harvey, do you think that would make any difference to...

00:57:39To him?

00:57:42No.

00:57:43Probably wouldn't make any difference to him.

00:57:46Now I still think it'd make a heck of a lot of difference to April Tremaine.

00:57:49Oh, listen, Harvey.

00:57:50I'm never going back to Hollywood again.

00:57:52I wanna be just plain Mary Potter or Mrs. Jones or...

00:57:57Or...

00:57:57Mrs. Dr. North.

00:58:00You really mean that?

00:58:09Mary, you sure you know what you're talking about?

00:58:12I was never so sure of anything in my whole life.

00:58:15You come with me, I'll prove it to you.

00:58:19But, honey, wait.

00:58:20I have waited.

00:58:21I've waited for three years and it's much too long.

00:58:25Say, did I tell you that I loved you?

00:58:28You know, I'm not quite sure.

00:58:30Maybe you'd better tell me again.

00:58:35Hello.

00:58:36Hello.

00:58:36No, no, no, no.

00:58:37You snake in the bush.

00:58:38You double-crosser.

00:58:39You triple-crosser.

00:58:40Oh, no, he's not enough.

00:58:42I love him.

00:58:43And I love her.

00:58:44Now, you figure out an answer for that.

00:58:46It's impossible.

00:58:47Oh, no, it isn't.

00:58:48You were right, Avant.

00:58:50And I'm very grateful to you for opening my eyes.

00:58:53I'm going to marry Harvey.

00:58:56Marry?

00:58:56Uh-huh.

00:58:57I'm through with pictures.

00:58:58I'm never going back to Hollywood.

00:59:00You're quitting pictures.

00:59:01She's quitting pictures.

00:59:02So, yeah.

00:59:03Darling, listen.

00:59:04Listen to me.

00:59:05Maybe you're tired.

00:59:06Maybe you're excited.

00:59:07Maybe you go to bed.

00:59:08And in the morning I'll settle everything.

00:59:10Oh, I'm sorry, old-timer.

00:59:11But, you see, it seems that we've settled everything tonight.

00:59:15Toodle-oo.

00:59:16Toodle-oo?

00:59:18Ай-яй-яй-яй.

00:59:20Ой...

00:59:21Нет.

00:59:21Нет, нет, нет.

00:59:22Это же невозможно.

00:59:23Этот же человек...

00:59:24Это же человек своровал у меня девочку.

00:59:26Он же...

00:59:26Он же негодяй.

00:59:27Он же негодяй.

00:59:43Он же...

00:59:43Он же негодяй.

00:59:44Yes!

00:59:47Yes!

00:59:48Yes!

00:59:55May I come in?

00:59:57Now what do you want?

00:59:59Wait, ma'am.

01:00:00Last night you told me that if you had $50,000,

01:00:03you could build a great clinic,

01:00:04a place where you can do fine things for little children.

01:00:08Yes, and I also told you that I didn't have the $50,000.

01:00:11Exactly!

01:00:12You have the skill, but you haven't got the money.

01:00:15I have the money, but not the skill.

01:00:18So, together.

01:00:18Yeah, I know.

01:00:19You put them all together and they spell magnolia.

01:00:22No, no, no, no.

01:00:23I, Ivan Ivansky, will give you the money.

01:00:26I'm going to build for you the finest clinic that money can buy.

01:00:30Now, look, who do you think you're kidding?

01:00:31Kidding?

01:00:32But I'm not kidding.

01:00:33In Hollywood we do those things in a business-like way.

01:00:35I'm going to give you a contract before you leave this train.

01:00:39And just why are you doing all of this for me?

01:00:41For you, but I'm doing this for me, too.

01:00:43You've opened my eyes.

01:00:45I've been selfish, cold.

01:00:48Perhaps, perhaps a little bit heartless.

01:00:51But, say, you have a nice robe.

01:00:52But now I see the lights.

01:01:08All right, Monaghan.

01:01:09I'm proud of you to go to the road.

01:01:11You know your business.

01:01:12I sure do.

01:01:13And a little bit of everybody else, then.

01:01:16Well, good luck.

01:01:17Good luck to you.

01:01:18Hope you have a nice vacation.

01:01:20I think I will now.

01:01:21Yes.

01:01:24Have you found the baby yet?

01:01:25Not a sign of it.

01:01:26Go up front.

01:01:27Work your way back.

01:01:27Look everywhere.

01:01:28Right, Sergeant.

01:01:30You know, maybe I've had you all wrong.

01:01:32Maybe.

01:01:33But of course you got me wrong.

01:01:36I assure you that...

01:01:38Come in.

01:01:41Sorry to disturb you, gentlemen, but we're looking for a missing baby.

01:01:43Missing baby?

01:01:44That's right.

01:01:45Well, I guess you haven't got him in here.

01:01:47I haven't got him.

01:01:48I haven't even seen you.

01:01:49Sorry to have troubled you.

01:01:50That's all right.

01:01:51That's all right.

01:01:52What do you suppose that's all about?

01:01:53Shh.

01:01:54I sent for them.

01:01:55You?

01:01:56Yes, you see, Mr. Maine's little adopted baby is missing.

01:01:59But now I've changed my mind.

01:02:00I wish to say nothing about it.

01:02:01Besides, how can I tell anything about it when I don't know where it is?

01:02:04Well, if you don't, I do.

01:02:06You know where the baby is?

01:02:07Oh, certainly.

01:02:08I just left him a little while ago.

01:02:10He's in April's room.

01:02:11Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:02:11Excuse me, please.

01:02:12Excuse me, please.

01:02:13It's a matter of life or maybe death.

01:02:15Good morning, Mr. Cupid.

01:02:18And how do you feel?

01:02:21That's right.

01:02:21Smile.

01:02:22You've got something to smile about.

01:02:24Why would Hannah have been for you?

01:02:28Yvonne.

01:02:28Here.

01:02:30So it is the truth.

01:02:31He's here.

01:02:32The baby?

01:02:33Where should he be?

01:02:34Anyplace, anyplace but here.

01:02:35But why?

01:02:37Listen, darling.

01:02:38I'll try to tell it to you, Jimmy.

01:02:40Think of everything, the most terrible that ever happened in your life.

01:02:44And this, this is worse.

01:02:45This baby is kidnapped.

01:02:49Kidnapped?

01:02:50But, but I thought that...

01:02:51You thought, I thought, Patsy thought.

01:02:53Only, only that big, half-wit engineer.

01:02:55He, he didn't think.

01:02:57What?

01:02:58May I come in?

01:02:59Certainly come in.

01:03:00What are you waiting for?

01:03:01Good morning.

01:03:02Good night.

01:03:03So, we haven't got the baby.

01:03:05So what have we got to lose, huh?

01:03:07Well, where did he come from?

01:03:09Come from, come from.

01:03:10Could the baby that size come from someplace?

01:03:12Where is she going?

01:03:13That's important.

01:03:14Now, what do we do?

01:03:15Oh, it's all yours.

01:03:16I'm fired.

01:03:16You're hired again.

01:03:18Hey.

01:03:19Shh.

01:03:20Who is there?

01:03:21The police.

01:03:22Oh.

01:03:23Ay, ay, ay, ay.

01:03:24What are we going to do?

01:03:25I'm leaving.

01:03:26Hurry, open a window.

01:03:27Quiet.

01:03:28Shh.

01:03:29Just one minute, please.

01:03:31We are in the conference.

01:03:33Shh.

01:03:35Now, you take care of him.

01:03:36Take him there.

01:03:37Me?

01:03:37Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay.

01:03:45Now, remember your big scene in The Scarlet Lady?

01:03:47The one where the sister dies?

01:03:49Exactly.

01:03:50Of course I do.

01:03:51But, but...

01:03:51We got no time for butts.

01:03:52Come.

01:03:54Come in.

01:03:56But I think of you, my darling.

01:03:58You shouldn't worry.

01:04:01Ah, good morning, officer.

01:04:03You must excuse me, Mr. Maine.

01:04:04You know, it was quite a shock.

01:04:05Of course.

01:04:06I wish I had better news to report.

01:04:08I know, I know.

01:04:09But what can we do?

01:04:11Please, relax.

01:04:13Relax, my darling.

01:04:17Now, if I could get one or two details.

01:04:19Of course, of course.

01:04:20But please be seated.

01:04:22This case reminds me very much of one similar in Russia.

01:04:27Wintertime, it was snowing.

01:04:29It always snows in Russia.

01:04:34Oh, shh.

01:04:35Quiet.

01:04:36Quiet.

01:04:38Shh.

01:04:39Who is this?

01:04:40It's Maurice.

01:04:42Good morning.

01:04:43Shh.

01:04:43Miss Potts.

01:04:44I got you.

01:04:45I've just come to tell you that everything's okay.

01:04:47Oh.

01:04:48A train on full of police and everything's okay.

01:04:50You mean they're looking for the kid?

01:04:51What do you think they're looking for?

01:04:52Well, what's the difference?

01:04:53They'll never find him.

01:04:54Because he ain't on the train.

01:04:55Oh, he isn't.

01:04:57What do you think that is?

01:04:58A singer's midget?

01:05:02Impossible.

01:05:03It can't be.

01:05:05But it is.

01:05:06Yeah.

01:05:07Uh, who is it?

01:05:08The police.

01:05:08Oh.

01:05:09Just a moment, please.

01:05:12Shh.

01:05:12Here.

01:05:13Take the baby.

01:05:14Get in there and keep quiet.

01:05:16Shh.

01:05:19Coming.

01:05:19Is that someone knocking?

01:05:20Yes, and it's no woodpecker.

01:05:22Oh.

01:05:23Good morning.

01:05:24Oh, it's him.

01:05:26Who?

01:05:27Renfrew.

01:05:28Oh.

01:05:29Don't mind her, officer.

01:05:30It's the uniform.

01:05:31Her uncle used to be a fireman.

01:05:32No.

01:05:33Yeah.

01:05:33Do you mind answering a few questions?

01:05:35Not at all, Renfrew.

01:05:36Sit down.

01:05:37Where'd you leave your horse?

01:05:38My horse?

01:05:39Mm-hmm.

01:05:40Look, lady.

01:05:41All I want's a little information.

01:05:43Do you mind?

01:05:44No, I don't mind if that's the way you feel about it.

01:05:47Hm.

01:05:47I've been listening to you for 47 weeks.

01:05:50But now I don't care whether you kiss her or not.

01:05:52Look, lady.

01:05:53One question.

01:05:54Did you kiss her?

01:05:58You mind?

01:05:59Oh, no.

01:06:00Not at all.

01:06:00Go right ahead.

01:06:02What am I gonna do now?

01:06:04What you gonna do now, it's not important.

01:06:06Where you do it, that's the thing.

01:06:08And you are not going to do it here.

01:06:10You must go out.

01:06:11But quick.

01:06:12Please.

01:06:13Please.

01:06:14Hurry.

01:06:14Go.

01:06:24Well, I'm sorry to have troubled you ladies.

01:06:26Oh, there's no trouble at all.

01:06:28No.

01:06:28Goodbye.

01:06:29Must you go, Renfrew?

01:06:31Yes, he must.

01:06:32Well, do you think he'll be back?

01:06:33That's what I'm afraid of.

01:06:40Well, thanks very much.

01:06:47I haven't found a thing, sir.

01:06:48Well, all we can do is fill out the report.

01:06:50Right.

01:06:51All aboard!

01:06:53All aboard!

01:07:13How are you?

01:07:14Okay.

01:07:28What did I ever do to you?

01:07:33This is a fine time to be laughing.

01:07:37I haven't eaten 77 years.

01:07:40I've been so healthy.

01:08:01What's this we're coming to?

01:08:02Philadelphia.

01:08:03Philadelphia.

01:08:04Philadelphia.

01:08:05That's an inspiration.

01:08:06What?

01:08:07Well, get off!

01:08:08But I thought we were going to New York.

01:08:10New York?

01:08:10How can we go to New York with batteries of newspaper men waiting to photograph Miss April's

01:08:15remain with her adopted baby?

01:08:17And what happens?

01:08:17Her adopted baby ain't legal.

01:08:19It's kidnapped.

01:08:21But you said we were getting off the train without the baby.

01:08:23Listen, darling, listen.

01:08:25Fifty million newspaper readers know that Miss April's remain got on a Broadway limited

01:08:31in Chicago with an adopted baby.

01:08:33And what are we going to tell them when we get off to New York without the baby?

01:08:36And what are we going to tell the police?

01:08:38Well, don't forget there are police in Philadelphia, too.

01:08:40Shh!

01:08:41Wait.

01:08:41Shh!

01:08:50See you later?

01:08:51See ya.

01:08:56I was afraid you weren't going to make it.

01:08:57I would mess it.

01:08:58Where's the kid?

01:08:59Is he okay?

01:09:00Everything is okay.

01:09:01It worked like a charm.

01:09:02Come on.

01:09:02All aboard!

01:09:18Stop worrying everybody.

01:09:20There is a solution to all this.

01:09:22All we have to do is to think of it.

01:09:24I don't know why you're all so glum and worried.

01:09:27Personally, I'm quite thrilled.

01:09:29She's thrilled, yeah.

01:09:30Excuse me, please.

01:09:31Miss Powell, I assure you, the electric chair is no chaise long.

01:09:36Besides, personally, you are not connected with the matter.

01:09:40I know.

01:09:41I just wish I were.

01:09:43Why, you're all heroes.

01:09:45Heroes?

01:09:45That's not what they call them in Sing Sing.

01:09:48Oh.

01:09:49Why, Miss Powell's absolutely right.

01:09:52Why, of course she is.

01:09:53Here, the whole world is searching for the baby, and we have it right here, safe and sound.

01:09:58Yeah.

01:09:59Why, this is the biggest story that ever broke.

01:10:01We've got it right in the palm of our hands.

01:10:03Of course.

01:10:03Why, certainly, it'll put April Tremaine on the front page of every newspaper in the world.

01:10:07Now, listen.

01:10:09Excuse me.

01:10:10I've made up my mind.

01:10:11As soon as I get to New York, I'm gonna surrender.

01:10:13Surrender?

01:10:14Why, Mike, you're a hero!

01:10:16You certainly are.

01:10:17Maybe the first one to shake your hand.

01:10:19Pleased to meet you.

01:10:20All right.

01:10:21Save it, save it.

01:10:21Now, go get the baby.

01:10:23When we get off this train, they'll carry us around on their shoulders.

01:10:26Sure, sure.

01:10:27All right.

01:10:27Hurry up.

01:10:28Hurry up.

01:10:29My friends, I've cleared up everything.

01:10:33Well, come in.

01:10:34Come in.

01:10:35Harvey, you aren't in your compartment, so I...

01:10:36Thank you very much.

01:10:37Thank you very much.

01:10:37You may go.

01:10:38Oh.

01:10:41And Yvonne Skip always keeps his word.

01:10:43Well, nearly always.

01:10:45My friend, your check for $50,000.

01:10:48$50,000?

01:10:50In real money?

01:10:51It ain't no hay.

01:10:53And your contracts for the clinic.

01:10:55Please sign on the death in line.

01:10:56Your contract for the clinic?

01:10:58You mean that Yvonne...

01:10:59That's right.

01:11:00You see, I didn't want to tell you until I was sure.

01:11:02Why, Yvonne, that's the nicest thing you've done in your whole life.

01:11:07Listen.

01:11:08What do you think?

01:11:09The baby's gone.

01:11:10Gone?

01:11:11Yeah.

01:11:11When I got there, the baby was gone.

01:11:13Oh, but he must still be on the train.

01:11:15Exactly.

01:11:15Search every place.

01:11:16Call the conductor.

01:11:17Get the police.

01:11:18Come on.

01:11:18Let's get going.

01:11:19Let's get every place.

01:11:20I'll go this way.

01:11:22Oh, then may I go, too?

01:11:24Yeah, you may go, too.

01:11:26Enzovania Station, New York.

01:11:29Pardon, sir.

01:11:35Pulling a fast one, huh?

01:11:36Give me that kid.

01:11:38Wait, it's a mistake.

01:11:38Now, listen.

01:11:39Listen, nothing.

01:11:40Take it easy.

01:11:42Whoa.

01:11:43So you want to play, huh?

01:11:46Now, listen.

01:11:47Now, wait a minute.

01:11:48I ain't got no time.

01:11:49Now, wait a minute, mister.

01:11:50Hey, Mike, where are you?

01:11:51I'm right in here.

01:11:54What's going on?

01:11:56Everything's taken care of.

01:11:57There's the kid and these are the guys that stuck it.

01:11:59Now, wait a minute.

01:12:00Listen, this is a mistake, I tell you.

01:12:01Oh, yeah?

01:12:02Well, this is no mistake, you baby snatcher.

01:12:05Here.

01:12:05You got him along and I'll meet you on the platform.

01:12:07Right.

01:12:08Wait a minute, lady.

01:12:09You're not going anywhere with that kid.

01:12:10Oh, yes, she is.

01:12:18Nothing.

01:12:18Nothing to it at all.

01:12:20See you later.

01:12:21Okay.

01:12:22Come on, kiddies.

01:12:23Get out of the house.

01:12:24Come on, step right up and get a load of the greatest story that ever broke.

01:12:27We have the Pearson kid safe and sound and that ain't all.

01:12:31We've got the kidnappers, too.

01:12:32The Pearson kid?

01:12:33What do you mean the kidnappers?

01:12:35Why, the Pearson kid's been home since 9 o'clock last night.

01:12:38You mean this isn't the Pearson baby?

01:12:40That's what I've been trying to tell you.

01:12:41That's my baby.

01:12:42I'm the baby's father.

01:12:43I'm the baby's father.

01:12:45You...

01:12:45Well, who are these two mugs?

01:12:47Mugs?

01:12:47This is my brother and brother-in-law from Philadelphia.

01:12:50I only let you have the baby when I heard you were going to New York.

01:12:52I figured I could use the $500 to have a family reunion.

01:12:55My relatives have never seen the baby.

01:12:57Well, what about the baby's mold?

01:12:58My baby hasn't got a mold.

01:13:00What do you call this?

01:13:01What?

01:13:01This thing here?

01:13:02Oh, dear.

01:13:03That's my beauty mark.

01:13:04I've been looking all over for it all morning.

01:13:06Beauty mark?

01:13:07Come on.

01:13:08Let's get out of here.

01:13:10So.

01:13:11Well, I guess I'd better be going.

01:13:12Yeah, me too.

01:13:13Just a moment, Miss Raleigh.

01:13:15Come on, honey.

01:13:15Let's get out of here before something else happens.

01:13:17So long, Yvonne.

01:13:18Goodbye, Yvonne.

01:13:19Oh, goodbye, Miss Jemaine.

01:13:20Goodbye.

01:13:21Goodbye, children.

01:13:22Bye.

01:13:22Miss Raleigh, we're leaving for the coast this afternoon.

01:13:24Oh, no more orders, my friend.

01:13:27I am leaving for Niagara Falls this morning.

01:13:29Or am I?

01:13:30But definitely.

01:13:32You mean you'll be happy with him?

01:13:34Aye, aye, aye.

01:13:35Oh.

01:13:37Aye, aye, aye.

01:13:39She means it.

01:13:41Say, I just thought of something.

01:13:42Where's the clue you're going to be?

01:13:43You know, in all the excitement, I forgot to look.

01:13:46Must say, in here someplace, though.

01:13:48Let's see.

01:13:49Part of the first part says the part.

01:13:52Yes, it is right here.

01:13:54To be located at 3685 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, California.

01:14:00Why, that's right across the street from the studio.

01:14:05I'll be seeing you.

01:14:09I'll be seeing you.

01:14:10Toodaloo.

01:14:10Goodbye.

01:14:16Oh, Red Blue.

01:14:18Goodbye.

01:14:21Bye.

01:14:22Bye.

01:14:25Bye.
