00:04The End
00:36THE END
01:14Oh, you look lovely.
01:18Lovely? Lovely for what?
01:20All dressed up and no place to go.
01:22Left waiting at the altar.
01:24No bridegroom.
01:25Oh, he'll be here.
01:26I told that adelpated, irresponsible man
01:29that if he ever kept me waiting again,
01:30he'd be sorry for us.
01:31Sheila, please.
01:33Doesn't that man think there's anything important
01:35about getting married?
01:36About getting married to me?
01:37And show yourself our guests.
01:39Our guests.
01:40They're probably whistling through their fingers
01:41and stamping their feet.
01:43If they're still here.
01:44Sheila, you mustn't.
01:45You mustn't, dear.
01:46Oh, a bridal bouquet.
01:48Pretty thing, isn't it?
01:51Hello.
01:52So, where's the bridegroom?
01:54Well, that's what I'd like to know.
01:56Where's the bridegroom?
01:57No, no, no, no, no, dear.
01:59Calm yourself, calm yourself.
02:01You'll spoil everything.
02:02Think of those people downstairs.
02:04That's what I am thinking about.
02:06They came here to see a wedding, didn't they?
02:08Well, they're going to see one.
02:10But you can't have a wedding without a bridegroom.
02:12There'll be a bridegroom.
02:13Who's downstairs?
02:14Fred, George, get Henry for me.
02:17Henry?
02:17Henry who?
02:18Henry Tuttle, my lawyer.
02:19But you don't need a lawyer.
02:21Oh, yes, I do.
02:22Now you're going, am I?
02:23Oh, I'm going.
02:25Oh.
02:40No bridegroom, eh?
02:46Well, we'll see.
02:53Oh, there you are.
02:55Henry, something has happened to Sheila.
02:57Come at once.
03:00What's wrong?
03:00You've always gotten me out of gems before, haven't you, Henry?
03:03Yeah, plenty of them.
03:04Well, this is the biggest one I was ever in, and you've got to get me out of it.
03:06How?
03:07Marry me.
03:08Oh, you can't do this.
03:09It's crazy.
03:09It's mad.
03:10Mother, this is my wedding, not yours.
03:12It's all very simple, and you're an attorney.
03:13All you have to do is change the license.
03:15Now, you can't, dear.
03:16But it didn't stop.
03:17This is horrible, horrible.
03:19Yeah, but what about Eric?
03:20Oh, are you going to argue or marry me?
03:23Are you serious?
03:24Do I look playful?
03:27Give me that license.
03:43Leave me waiting at the church, Willie.
03:58Come in.
04:03How are you doing?
04:04Oh, all right.
04:06Oh, no, isn't that silly?
04:08Well, it's not so silly.
04:09That's an old custom that has a great deal of significance.
04:12Well, it's silly to me.
04:13Anyway, it's all over, thank goodness.
04:15Right.
04:16You know, I never thought I'd be lucky enough to manage this.
04:19Oh, you're wonderful, really.
04:20Except for a little nervousness.
04:22And I'm very grateful, Henry.
04:24Eric would have shown up eventually, but this will teach him a lesson.
04:27Next time, he'll be more comfortable.
04:29Next time?
04:30Yes.
04:31Oh, would you put this over here?
04:37I won't be so lenient with him.
04:41I may be a little bit stupid, but just where does our marriage fit into this picture?
04:46Oh, our marriage is a purely social gesture to save a purely social situation.
04:51I see.
04:53Bridegroom fails to show.
04:55I double for bridegroom, save your face, and help teach bridegroom to be a better boy hereafter.
04:59Exactly.
05:01I wouldn't be surprised if Eric took a plane and came right down after us.
05:07Just how long you calculate you'll need my services as a stand-in.
05:10Oh, not long.
05:11As soon as the publicity dies down, I'll go to Reno and do it all very quietly,
05:16and everything will be straightened out for everybody.
05:19You could choose a vacation, Henry.
05:22Oh, here it is.
05:24What?
05:25A wedding present for my Letitia.
05:27A picture of Eric as a baby.
05:34Pardon me, please.
05:35Where are you going?
05:36Going out to the club car and get quietly but effectively plastered.
05:40Oh.
06:05Well, I think this will do very nicely, don't you, Henry?
06:07Yeah, it's comfortable.
06:08Home-like.
06:11Oh, it's charming.
06:13Too bad there's only one bedroom.
06:17But, uh, yes, I think you'll manage quite nicely on the couch.
06:33Thank you, sir.
06:38Thank you, sir.
06:41Thank you, sir.
06:52It's, uh, it's unusually hot for this time of year, isn't it?
07:05Henry, have you got...
07:07Oh, yes.
07:13Well, the trunks are here.
07:14Now it will start getting into something cool.
07:16Good.
07:20Good.
07:21Thank you, sir.
07:52What is it, Henry?
07:53Do you mind if I come in and get a few things out of my trunk?
07:55Oh, wait just a minute.
08:01You might come in now, Henry.
08:04Little snooze.
08:10Henry, be careful.
08:12Sorry.
08:19I hope my trunk being in your room won't embarrass you.
08:22Not at all. Why should it?
08:30Henry, would you move those over onto that bed?
08:32Because I've decided to sleep here.
08:34I like the light on my right.
08:35Right.
08:36Yes, right.
08:40I hope you won't be too uncomfortable on the dive-in.
08:43Oh, not at all, not at all.
08:45I'll be as comfortable there as anywhere.
08:49Practically.
08:51Well, it's too bad we had dinner on the train.
08:53Otherwise, we might have killed some time.
08:56Oh, we can play cards.
08:57Honeymoon Bridge.
08:59Perfect.
09:00Ducky.
09:12What a marvelous orchestra.
09:13Should be.
09:14It's Georgie Stolls.
09:15Well, Henry, I didn't know even you orchestra leaders' names.
09:18Well, I guess I must have run it on one of the cards that live around the rooms.
09:21Would you like to dress me down?
09:23Oh, no.
09:24People might look at us archly, and I can't endure being looked archly at.
09:28Can you?
09:28What?
09:29Archly.
09:31Never archly.
09:34Excuse me.
09:44There you are.
09:54Oh, how sweet.
09:55Oh, this thunder.
10:02Oh, isn't that lovely.
10:06Oh.
10:07Oh, they're from you.
10:08Well, that's very thoughtful of you, Henry.
10:10Here, put them in water.
10:15Hello?
10:17Who?
10:19Henry, it's for you.
10:24Thanks, Phil.
10:26Hello.
10:28Oh, hello there.
10:28How are you?
10:32Oh, yes.
10:33Yeah, oh, thanks a lot.
10:36Are there newspapers?
10:37No, no, I haven't.
10:40A what?
10:42A caveman?
10:44Oh, yes, that's me all over.
10:46A fast worker.
10:47Oh, I don't dare give them a chance to think.
10:50Oh, yes, we're very, very happy.
10:52Yes, indeed.
10:53Well, I want you to meet my wife.
10:54She's an awfully nice little person.
10:56Very much of a homebody, you know, that sort of thing.
11:01You what?
11:02No, no, no, no, I'm glad you called.
11:05Tomorrow?
11:07Oh, fine, fine.
11:09Right-o.
11:11Goodbye.
11:15Sorry.
11:16Well?
11:17My plate?
11:18No, no, I mean, who was it?
11:20Who?
11:20On the phone.
11:22Oh, hello.
11:22After all, I have a right to know with whom you talk.
11:25I'm your wife.
11:27Huh?
11:28Oh, well, he was a chap I used to know in law school.
11:30He has a cottage around here somewhere.
11:32You'll meet him.
11:32I don't want to meet him.
11:33I want to know what he said.
11:35Oh, he said he wanted to meet you.
11:38Henry Tuttle, he said something about the newspapers.
11:41Now, what was it?
11:42Oh, the newspapers.
11:42I, excuse me, the traffic seems to be getting terrific.
12:04Callagraph?
12:05Hmm.
12:06For you?
12:07Hmm.
12:08Nothing serious, I hope.
12:10Oh, no, oh, no, it's all in fun.
12:12Oh.
12:17Oh.
12:17Congratulations, sir.
12:19Just saw your ad in the headlines.
12:23Headlines.
12:24Newspapers.
12:25Here we are, free, self-respecting, upstanding,
12:28independent American citizens pursued and persecuted
12:31by the press.
12:32Well, my dear young lady, you've been in the headlines before.
12:34Oh, I wouldn't expect you to appreciate it,
12:36but this is different.
12:37The kind of girl who can get married
12:39without her being smithed all over the country
12:40in every sensational publication.
12:42Was that kind of a marriage?
12:44A what?
12:46Natural for the reporters.
12:47Oh, a natural.
12:48Well, I call it unnatural.
12:50Inhuman and disgusting.
12:53Well, is nothing sacred?
12:54Have they no respect for the bonds of matrimony?
12:57Stay where you are.
12:58I'll answer that.
13:03Well, Eric.
13:04Eric, how nice to see you.
13:07Where is he?
13:13Well?
13:15Well?
13:16Well, don't you think you owe me an explanation?
13:19Oh, Eric, don't I?
13:20Now, Sheila, please.
13:20This is between Tuttle and myself.
13:22You stole my fiancé.
13:23That's between Sheila and me.
13:25You didn't show up.
13:25That's between me and Sheila.
13:27Telephone, excuse me.
13:31Hello.
13:32Reporters?
13:33No reporters.
13:34No reporters.
13:39Have you seen this?
13:50You ought to take that attitude.
13:51Oh, Eric, wait a minute, wait a minute.
13:53Henry's really been very kindly considerate.
13:55And he sent me those lovely flowers.
13:58Oh, he did, did he?
13:59Uh-huh.
13:59Uh, no, the roses.
14:07Ah, thanks.
14:08Thanks for the flowers, but you might hold them like that.
14:10A little higher.
14:10There you are.
14:10Watch the birdie.
14:11Snap it, boys.
14:12Grab it.
14:12Was there a fight?
14:13No.
14:13Your mother objected to the match?
14:14No.
14:15Another woman?
14:15Of course not.
14:16Rope an engagement several times?
14:17Well, yes.
14:18Reynolds kidnapped?
14:19No, sir.
14:19Are you both happy?
14:20Oh, yes, indeed.
14:21We're very, very happy, aren't we, darling?
14:22Yes.
14:23Hold it.
14:23Take it, boys.
14:24And how's everything about you, Reynolds?
14:26Mind giving us a statement?
14:27Well, I'm, uh, uh, well, aren't they both my closest friends?
14:30Their happiness is mine.
14:31Ah, thanks.
14:32That's all we wanted to know.
14:34Come on, boys, and let's go home.
14:36And your happiness is ours.
14:37Well, we'll be seeing it.
14:41Now, look here, Tuttle.
14:43I'm warning you, it was man to man.
14:45Hold it.
14:46I'll be right back.
14:57Now, another surprise, Sheila.
14:59Ah, champagne.
15:00And from Uncle Fred.
15:02I'll get another glass.
15:05Well, this is something.
15:10Paul Roger.
15:11Twenty-seven.
15:13Here it is.
15:14You know, this was a very happy thought on Uncle Fred's part, darling.
15:18Darling.
15:19Tuttle, I resent that.
15:21In fact, I resent everything.
15:23Sheila, what have you got to say for yourself?
15:25What have you got to say for yourself?
15:27Well, where were you?
15:29Did you forget there was a wedding?
15:31Fine.
15:32I went to a movie.
15:33A movie?
15:34Henry, did you hear that?
15:35He went to a movie.
15:37How was the show, Eric?
15:38I don't know.
15:38I went to sleep.
15:39Asleep?
15:40Now, listen, Sheila.
15:40You know I wouldn't deliberately go.
15:42As a matter of fact, there was a little bachelor party last night.
15:44And, well, when I woke up this morning, I was at a movie.
15:49You know, I've always wondered what sort of people go to movies early in the morning.
15:53Well, now you know.
15:56Oh, I think that's sweet.
15:58For you, Eric.
16:01To the bride.
16:03To Sheila.
16:07To Uncle Fred.
16:08Heaven bless him.
16:09Uncle Fred.
16:10Bless him.
16:15To three on a honeymoon.
16:17Oh, I think that's sweet.
16:18And to those who go to movies early in the morning.
16:21Oh, look here, Tuftle.
16:22I resent that.
16:23That's the third time today you've resented something.
16:26What are you going to do about it?
16:27Don't you hit him, Eric.
16:29Very well, dear.
16:30If it makes you feel any happier.
16:32Yes, and we'll talk the whole thing over the morning at breakfast.
16:34Yes.
16:35Alone.
16:43You shouldn't have stopped me.
16:45I ought to thrash you.
16:46Oh, don't, Eric.
16:48Well, perhaps another time.
16:50Good night, my sweet.
16:51Good night.
17:02I resent your attitude toward Eric.
17:05Now, don't you start resenting things.
17:08Oh, too much, eh?
17:09Well, I hope you'll be able to sleep it off.
17:11What, on that thing?
17:14Do you mind if I go in and get some more things out of my trunk?
17:17Oh, no, no, it's all right.
17:25This must be very unsatisfactory for you, Henry.
17:28That's putting it mildly.
17:30I mean about your trunk.
17:32Well, of course.
17:33What do you think I meant?
17:34Well, one hardly knows.
17:36Frankly, you amaze me.
17:38I'm just an average, normal individual.
17:40The fact that you seem to have completely overlooked.
17:42Oh, well, now we're going to have to try to get along.
17:44I don't want people to think you're only my lawyer.
17:47With Eric hanging around on this honeymoon,
17:49who are they going to think I am?
17:52Oh, now, wait a minute.
17:53Just because we're in a situation that's a little awkward
17:55is no reason for you to lose your temper.
17:58My temper?
17:59I'm losing my identity.
18:00That's right.
18:01Shout at me.
18:02Shout at me.
18:06I'll tell you one thing.
18:07Reynolds has got to clear out of here.
18:11Is that so?
18:12I suppose you think you can tell me who will
18:15and who will not stay in this hotel.
18:16Well, it's not the thing we're living here.
18:18You understand?
18:18It isn't a very long.
18:20That's right.
18:21Keep it up.
18:22Keep it up.
18:23Well, whether you like it or not,
18:24he's going to stay here.
18:26He's going to stay because I want him here.
18:28We've planned and planned this honeymoon
18:30and the places we'd go and the things we'd do
18:33and we're going to do them.
18:38All right.
18:38Go ahead and do them.
18:39Do anything you please.
18:40But I'm putting an end to this business
18:42of being pushed around.
18:43First I get pushed into marrying you
18:44and then you start pushing me out.
18:46Now, Henry, please.
18:47Now, listen to me.
18:48I've been in love with you for years.
18:50You knew that.
18:50That's why you asked me to marry you
18:52and that's why I married you.
18:53At the same time,
18:54I don't think you're perfect.
18:55I do think you have possibilities.
18:57Now, stay here, Henry Tuttle.
18:58The point is this.
18:59You're a spoiled, willful, headstrong rat.
19:02Now, take this business of you marrying me offhand.
19:04It was quite in keeping with your general arrogance.
19:07Well, Henry, I can't understand you.
19:08You've always been so kind and patient.
19:10Yeah, but from now on,
19:11things are going to be different.
19:12You just bear that in mind, Mrs. Tuttle,
19:14and everything will be fine and dandy.
19:16I'm sorry I ever married you, Henry Tuttle.
19:27Give me a pillow and some covers.
19:45I resent it.
19:47I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
20:03I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry

20:03I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
20:07I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
20:07I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
20:08I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
20:12I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm
20:56Henry?
20:59Henry?
21:01Now, you mustn't feel bad about last night.

24:12Lucky, not the bridegroom.
24:15Oh, I don't know. The girl has her points.
24:17Have you forgiven me?
24:19Yes.
24:20Did you sleep well, my sweet?
24:21Yes, and you?
24:22Never close my eyes, dear girl. I just kept thinking and thinking.
24:26Well, you haven't lost your appetite.
24:29Oh, no, but I couldn't help worrying.
24:31You know, we rentals always do.
24:35You look so beautiful.
24:45What's the matter?
24:47Come on.
24:48Come on.
24:48Come on.
24:49Come on.
24:49Come on.
24:50Come on.
24:51Come on.
24:52Come on.
24:55Come on.
25:00Come on.
25:04Come on.
25:05Come on, come on.
25:05Come on.
25:06Come on.
25:07Come on.
25:09Well, it's Henry.
25:11Who's that?
25:11Well, of course it is.
25:12I'd know him anywhere.
25:14Come on.
25:17Come on.
25:18Come on.
25:23Did you see that?
25:25Oh.
25:25Well, he just did a whole one and part of another one.
25:28You mean one and a quarter?
25:30Very easy.
25:35One more!
25:36Ah, show's over!
25:38Oh, yeah!
25:39That's one more!
25:42Ah, show's over.
25:44Oh, God!
25:46Where are you going now?
25:47What should have been done here?
25:48I have a date with a couple of redheads.
25:53Bye, girls.
25:55Bye!
25:58Oh, hello, Peter.
26:00Hi, Eric.
26:00Hi.
26:01Well, what do you make of that?
26:04I wonder if I can file my application.
26:07Well, I didn't know you could swim, Henry.
26:09I thought if you fell in the water, you'd drown.
26:11Well, you see, I...
26:12You see, it was like this.
26:12When he was six feet old, his father took him out of the boat
26:15and threw him into 11 years of water.
26:16And it's been sick or swim ever since.
26:18Uh, thanks, old boy.
26:19I've had breakfast.
26:20I'll see you later.
26:22Hi, Eric.
26:23Hi, Eric.
26:24Girls, don't get your thing wet now.
26:25Oh, well.
26:28Whoa.
26:33You know, Henry rather amazes me.
26:35Well, the whole thing's rather amazing.
26:37Point is, what are we going to do about it?
26:40Now, don't you worry.
26:41I can handle Henry all right.
26:50Is this toast brown enough for you, dear?
26:51Yes, I think so.
26:57Two lobsters?
26:59That's right, Angel.
27:03Freeman?
27:04Just a spot, baby.
27:08I suppose it's modern and all that,
27:10but I think it's outrageous.
27:15What?
27:17Look at that.
27:18What?
27:20They've no right to print that.
27:21I'll sue them.
27:22Well, it doesn't do you justice, Eric.
27:23It really doesn't.
27:24Justice?
27:25Justice, is that all you can say?
27:27Eric, it's so loud.
27:28Oh, look.
27:29There they are again.
27:30He's so loud.
27:31Curious, right?
27:37Oh!
27:38Oh!
27:39Oh!
27:40Oh!
27:41Oh!
27:42Oh, my God!
27:43Oh!
27:45Oh!
27:45Oh!
27:46Oh!
27:48Oh!
27:53Oh!
28:10Honey, you hurt yourself?
28:11Oh no, no.
28:17Beastly thinks he's possible, aren't they?
28:18Well, don't abuse them.
28:19They got us away from those awful reporters.
28:22Yeah, and probably into jail for larceny too.
28:28Sheila, we can't go on with this impossible situation.
28:31I'm going to have a word with Tuttle tonight and put an end to this whole fantastic episode.
28:36How do you think I feel hearing people call you Mrs. Tuttle?
28:39Tuttle, such a silly name.
28:41Oh, I know, darling, it's too dreadful.
28:43I must have been out of my mind.
28:45Yes, you must.
28:46Now, wait a minute.
28:47What do you think about the time that you...
28:50Well, there's Henry.
28:54Henry.
28:54Do we never get rid of that fellow?
28:57And with a blonde.
29:03Hello.
29:05Hello.
29:07A little morning constitutional.
29:10Very stimulating.
29:12Well, Henry, I didn't know you could ride.
29:14Oh, yes, but not a bicycle.
29:16Oh, Sheila, I want you to meet Miss Van Orden.
29:18Helen, this is my wife.
29:19How do you do, Miss Van Orden?
29:21I'm sorry.
29:22This is Mr. Eric Reynolds, an old friend who came along to help out on the honeymoon.
29:26Well, how cozy.
29:28How do you do, Miss Van Orden?
29:30Come, Sheila.
29:34There you are.
29:40Give him his head, Eric.
29:43See you later.
29:46Goodbye.
29:47Shall we show it later?
29:49Yes, yes, let's do.
29:53Let's do our best.
30:08Oh, Eric!
30:09Papa!
30:10Papa!
30:13Oh.
30:17Darling, you're not accomplishing a thing.
30:18But you look so uncomfortable, dear.
30:20Look, could you shove it sort of to me from you?
30:23That's right.
30:25Darling, don't press quite so hard.
30:32Oh, I wonder where he picked her up.
30:35Now, darling, how can you possibly expect me to be interested in where he picked her up?
30:39Well, this thing draped all over me.
30:40I mean...
30:42Well, one thing's certain.
30:43I'm not traveling any further on this instrument.
30:45No, I don't think you are.
30:47Do you know those bicycles that belong to my children?
30:50What?
30:52Well, Sheila, is it possible that you made a mistake?
30:55Well, of course, I mean, you know very well that our bicycles have those, uh, those, uh, watch McCallum's.
31:02Radios.
31:03Yes, that's right, radios.
31:03Yeah, radios.
31:05Take the machine, Johnny.
31:07Take the machine, Johnny.
31:10Nice little boy.
31:11Oh, nice little girl.
31:13No, Annie.
31:14No, no, no, no, no.
31:16Well, uh, I'm glad to have seen you.
31:18Yes, it was nice to have met with you, too.
31:20Goodbye.
31:21Come, children.
31:21Are you ready?
31:24Well, I...
31:25Ha-ha!
31:26Ha-ha!
31:28Charming children.
31:29So?
31:30We walked back.
31:32You know, I don't see the point of ducking those reporters anyway.
31:34They're quite nice fellas, really.
31:54Back at seven, James.
32:03Here they come.
32:07Hi, Theola.
32:09Eric.
32:11Well, how was your ride back, pleasant?
32:13Oh, we didn't, uh...
32:14Oh, delightful, thank you.
32:15What do you have?
32:16Oh, we just ordered, thank you.
32:18Uh, Sheila and I are going over to the Gables tonight, uh, to the dinner dance.
32:21That's if you've no objections, Henry.
32:23Well, not at all.
32:24Sheila speaks very highly of your dancing.
32:25Well, I'm sure she'll enjoy it.
32:27Well, that'll leave you free to be with me.
32:29That is, if you don't mind, Mrs. Tuffle.
32:31Oh, not at all, Miss Van Orden.
32:32I think it's awfully nice of you because I wouldn't want Henry to be alone.
32:36We'll dine aboard the yacht and it'll be like old times.
32:39You know, I never lie on a moonlit deck or listen to that lovely Hawaiian thing, Paradise Isle, without thinking
32:44of you, Henry.
32:46Oh, you've known Henry quite some time then?
32:48Oh, yes, indeed.
32:49Well, we met on a cruise of the island two or three years ago.
32:52You know, Henry really made that trip for me.
32:55Oh, that must have been while I was still in school.
32:59Oh, you'll forgive me, darling, but...
33:01But you've a smudge of dust on that sweet little nose of yours.
33:30And lovely.
33:31Isn't it?
33:34Eric selected.
33:36It's his favourite of my entire trousseau.
33:40Eric has excellent taste.
33:42Hasn't he?
33:44Cigarette?
33:45Yes.
33:56My, it is pleasant out here tonight.
33:58Hmm.
33:59Music, moonlight.
34:01Oh, there's a falling star.
34:03Make a wish.
34:09Oh, that must be Eric.
34:12Funny, but I'd almost forgotten about him.
34:14Funny.
34:15So would I.
34:20Come in.
34:27Oh, darling.
34:28Oh, darling.
34:29How beautiful you look.
34:32Oh, hello, Henry.
34:33You don't mind, of course, old man.
34:35Why should I object?
34:36I'm only the man she married.
34:38Yeah, that's right, yeah.
34:39There you are, my sweet.
34:40I'll put them on and be right back.
34:41Mm-hmm.
34:44Ah, cigarette.
34:47That one?
34:48Thanks, though.
34:51Oh, thank you.
34:54Now, look here, Tonto.
34:56I want to get out of here.
34:58Oh, no, really?
34:59When are you leaving?
35:00Ah, I mean, you must understand,
35:01this is hardly the sort of honeymoon that I'd planned.
35:04Nor I, but, uh, here we are.
35:06Yes, here we are.
35:07And we can't get out of here until something's done about it.
35:09We?
35:10Yes.
35:11Sheila and me.
35:13Oh, uh, well, how are you going to handle it?
35:16I, uh, well, you're all right.
35:18Oh, the lawyer.
35:19Hi, it isn't up to me.
35:20It's up to the part of the first part.
35:22So far, she's handled everything delightfully.
35:24Personally, I'm very happy.
35:26You are?
35:27Good heavens.
35:28Well, I'm all ready.
35:30Oh, okay, sweetie.
35:32Eric and I are going on a picnic tomorrow, Henry.
35:34Would you like to join us?
35:35Well, thanks, though.
35:36I have other plans.
35:37Oh, well, good night.
35:39Good night.
35:39Good night.
35:40Good night.
35:40Good night.
35:41Good night.
35:42Oh, uh, did we, uh, come to any conclusion?
35:44Uh, not that I know of.
35:46I thought we did, yeah.
36:06Oh, hello, folks.
36:08Well, Henry, I didn't know you played tennis.
36:10You didn't know I played tennis, did you?
36:11Tennis?
36:11I should say he does.
36:13He taught me two years ago at Palm Beach, and I've won three cups already.
36:17Proud of me?
36:18What do you think?
36:19Uh, Sheila, I want you to meet Miss Evans, Claire, my wife.
36:21Well, how do you do, Mrs. Tuttle?
36:23How do you do?
36:23This is, this is Mr. Eric Reynolds, who just came along to me.
36:26Isn't it a lovely morning, Miss Evans?
36:28Perfectly gorgeous, Mr. Reynolds.
36:29We're going to meet Helen.
36:30Have a nice day.
36:31All right.
36:32Don't look for us till this evening.
36:33Nice to have met you both.
36:41See you later.
36:44You're going free with us today?
36:46Sorry, sorry, girl.
36:47Well, he certainly seems to be having a good time.
36:50Sorry, sorry, girl.
36:51I can't think what a weight that takes off my mind.
37:03Oh, this is wonderful.
37:05Alone together, away from all that nonsense.
37:07I think it's all too silly.
37:09I can't understand all those girls simply throwing themselves at Henry's head.
37:13Oh, it's the publicity.
37:14Oh, publicity alone wouldn't have been enough.
37:17There must have been something in Henry all along that none of us ever suspected.
37:21Oh, skitos.
37:22Now, now, don't antagonize it, dear.
37:24You'll merely make it mad.
37:25Well, I'm certainly not going to stay here and get stung just to keep a mosquito in a good humor.
37:29All the place is alive with them.
37:31Yeah, it's the water.
37:33Well, let's get out of here.
37:34Come on.
37:36You bring the things, dear.
37:38Yes, sweet.
38:03Oh, this is lovely.
38:12It's a meadow, isn't it, nice?
38:13Oh, it's beautiful.
38:23Oh, my shoulder, honey.
38:24Oh.
38:28You know, Eric, it just dawned on me that it's probably the glamour of that Van Orden girl that appeals
38:33to Henry.
38:34All those ostentatious yachts and country houses and things.
38:38Now, darling, that's none of our business.
38:46Oh, Eric.
38:47Eric Bowles.
38:48Don't be silly.
38:49They're cars.
38:50Cars are all right.
38:51Well, not by me.
38:51They're not.
38:52Oh, get another.
38:53Trespassing, huh?
38:55Can't you folks read?
38:56Well, of course we can read.
38:57Where did that come from?
38:59Now, don't tell me you didn't see it.
39:01That sign says no trespassing, and that's what it means.
39:04Now, get.
39:05We were just leaving, but don't let a little authority go to your head, officer.
39:09Oh, pretty fresh, ain't you?
39:11Let me help you, doctor.
39:12Ow!
39:13Ah, striking an officer, huh?
39:15Resistant arrest.
39:16You'll go to jail for this.
39:17Come on, get.
39:18Come on.
39:25Well, this is a fine mess.
39:27Could I have some more coffee, darling?
39:30Here, pour it yourself.
39:32Thank you, sweet.
39:33Don't sweet me.
39:34If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be in here.
39:36Why me?
39:37I didn't pick the spot to picnic.
39:39No, but you poked the policeman.
39:40I didn't poke him on purpose.
39:42If I had, he'd still be out, and we wouldn't be in.
39:44Well, I can see nothing's going to be done until I find Henry.
39:48Henry is probably out with that Van Orden girl.
39:50Oh, he is, is he?
39:52That Van Orden girl.
39:54She's the type who merely says,
39:56I'm going to do this, old dear,
39:58so you're going to do that.
39:59What are you mumbling about?
40:01Nothing.
40:01I'm talking to myself.
40:02Nobody better to talk to.
40:05She's in the habit of taking what she wants,
40:07and if she wants Henry, well, she'll probably take him.
40:10As far as I'm concerned, she can have him.
40:11Anybody can have him.
40:12Don't you talk about Henry when he's not here.
40:14I'll talk about Henry any way I please.
40:17As a matter of fact, if Henry were here,
40:18I'd tell him a few things.
40:19That's the last egg.
40:20I'm sorry.
40:22Maybe you two could fight better outside.
40:26Come on.
40:28Well, I'm very glad to see that you've come to your senses at last, officer.
40:32Yeah.
40:33It's a good thing for you two that you know Miss Van Orden.
40:36Oh, she got us out.
40:38Well, give her my compliments and say no thank you.
40:40The fellow by the name of Tuttle put up the money.
40:42Oh, he's my husband.
40:44Oh, he did, did he?
40:45Well, I stay here.
40:45No, you don't.
40:46I'm not going back there alone.
40:48What I can't understand, young woman,
40:50is how you can go around with a sap like this
40:52when you've got a nice fellow like Tuttle for a husband.
40:55Now, look here, officer.
40:56The first sap that I gave you was a mistake.
40:58This one.
40:59Yeah?
41:00Well, go ahead and do it.
41:01Do it!
41:03Skip it.
41:20Of course, you can ignore me if I'm too personal,
41:22but what's it all about, Henry?
41:25Huh?
41:26Oh, forgive me, Helen.
41:27I'm afraid I'm not even being decently polite.
41:29What's what all about?
41:30Oh, this little three-cornered honeymoon, and you and...
41:34Helen, will you please understand
41:35if I don't want to talk about it?
41:37You don't have to, Henry Tuttle.
41:39I'm way ahead of you.
41:41You're in love.
41:43I have been for a long time.
41:44You seem to be the first one to have suspected it.
41:47Well, some gals do get all the breaks.
41:50But you're sweet, Henry,
41:52and if I can help you,
41:53just give me a cue and I'll play my part
41:55and try to like it.
41:58Helen, you're a brick.
42:00Well, I suppose your little bride
42:02will be coming home from jail any minute now,
42:04so I'll be running along.
42:06But you're coming tonight, Henry?
42:08I most certainly am.
42:39It was lucky for us that Henry goes.
42:41Oh, neither of the sort.
42:42I have influential friends myself.
42:44You notice he didn't wait.
42:46Probably too occupied with Helen Van Orden.
42:48I was wondering...
42:51Wondering what?
42:52Well, whether he'd really be happy with her or not.
42:55I think I should stay married to him long enough
42:57to give him a chance to get over it.
42:59Oh, you do, do you?
43:00Well, I'm going to have something to say about that.
43:02Well, Eric, I feel very responsible for Henry.
43:05Oh, drat Henry!
43:07Haven't you put me through enough today
43:08without cursing at me?
43:11You may consider our engagement broken.
43:14Oh, Sheila!
43:19Well, I love my dreams, I love you.
43:24I'll start you.
43:32If I could just...
43:35Hello.
43:36Hello.
43:39Sing, eh?
43:40Oh, yes, I do a lot of things.
43:44Doesn't it matter to you
43:45that I spent the afternoon in jail?
43:47Well, I did all I could.
43:49I bailed you out, didn't I?
43:50Yes, thank you.
43:52Eric and I thank you very much.
43:54Don't mention it.
43:56You didn't come by yourself, did you?
43:58No, I was busy.
43:59I sent the money down by special messenger.
44:06There's only one girl of mine.
44:09You can't get her out of your mind, can you?
44:12Who?
44:12The girl of your dreams.
44:14Van Orden.
44:15Oh, don't be silly.
44:18Well, I'm off.
44:19Thanks for the use of the room.
44:21Where are you going?
44:22A garden party.
44:24Whose?
44:25Miss Van Orden's.
44:36Eric Reynolds' room, please.
44:39He's not in.
44:48Oh, hard-boiled eggs.
44:52Picnic.
44:53I love you.
44:53I love you.
45:01No.
45:06I love you.
45:07Come.
45:08Oh.
45:22All right.
45:23Look.
45:23It's beautiful, Helen.
45:25Well, I'm glad you like it.
45:27That's...
45:37Henry, you're not fooling me for one moment.
45:39Helen, that's very unkind.
45:40Well, you know you're not having a good time.
45:42But I am.
45:50I certainly must be an awful failure if I can't make you take your mind off your troubles.
45:55Oh, you're doing a very good...
45:58Sheila.
46:09All right. Run along.
46:12Now, trail.
46:19Sheila, this is a surprise.
46:21I can't see why it's surprising for a man to find his own wife at a party where he is
46:25himself.
46:25If you want to put it that way.
46:29Well, Mrs. Tussle.
46:31How very charming.
46:33I didn't think you'd mind, Miss Van Orden.
46:35Since my husband is such a welcome guest.
46:38Mind?
46:39Why, Henry and I are terribly pleased, aren't we, Henry?
46:43Yes, yes, certainly we are.
46:45This is a lovely party.
46:47In fact, it's quite the loveliest I've ever had the pleasure of crashing.
46:50Where's Eric?
46:52He went into town.
46:53On his bicycle?
46:54Sorry.
46:55Yes, he does seem to be a rather unique person, doesn't he?
46:59That's exactly what I like about him.
47:01Oh, yes.
47:02I suppose you understand him.
47:04Of course, I imagine he grows on one.
47:07Not at all.
47:08You see, you either like Eric or you don't like him.
47:10Right off.
47:11Oh, really?
47:11How interesting.
47:12Well, well, do I intrude?
47:14Oh, no, Clifford.
47:15Mrs. Tussle, this is Mr. Van Fleet.
47:17This is a great pleasure, Mrs. Tussle.
47:19Mr. Van Fleet?
47:21Well, aren't you dancing?
47:22Oh, may I?
47:23With me.
47:24Why not?
47:26You will excuse us.
47:55You do everything well.
47:57You even dance better than anybody else.
47:59That was my inspiration.
48:00Henry, you never used to say things like that.
48:03You never gave me half a chance.
48:16Will you play Paradise, I'll please?
48:31You never gave me half a chance.
48:31Henry, you remember?
48:35You don't mind, do you, dear, for old times' sake?
48:38Not at all.
48:42Paradise is near the tropical sky.
49:02You never gave me half a chance,
49:03I will
49:10And, do you never gave me half a chance.
49:11But I never gave you half a chance,
49:15But I never gave you half a chance.
49:36I won't keep him long, dear. That's quite all right.
49:57Well, it's a marvelous night. For what? Well, for a party like this. Music, moonlight, romance. Sorry, but I'm sick
50:10and tired of the word. Oh, no. Not you. Why, you were made for it.
50:16Do you know, it seems difficult to think of you as a married woman, Mrs. Tuttle. You seem such a
50:23child. That's right. I am only a child. And it's long past my bedtime. Good night.
50:48Well, that was very cute.
50:54Oh, charming of you, Mrs. Tuttle. Henry and I are delighted, aren't we, Henry? Paradise Isle. Remember, Henry?
51:05You don't mind, do you? I won't keep him long. Oh, that woman like a joker.
51:16Oh, my God.
51:20Oh, my God.
51:23Oh, my God.
51:27Oh, my God.
51:29Oh, my God.
51:58Oh, so it's you. Yes.
52:00Well, you can't come in.
52:02Why not?
52:03Well, you forget that I broke our engagement.
52:06Oh, that.
52:07Don't be silly.
52:13Eric, I don't want you here.
52:15Henry isn't home.
52:16Well, that seems difficult to believe.
52:18Oh, can't you understand?
52:19I don't want to see you anymore.
52:22Oh, now, honey, honey, you're all upset.
52:25Now, I know I've been a fathead over this business,
52:27but we'll pack up and get out of here,
52:29and we'll see your lawyer in the morning.
52:31Naturally.
52:32Henry's my lawyer.
52:33Well, you can't expect him to get us a divorce.
52:36All right, we'll see my lawyer.
52:37Oh, that one.
52:38What's the matter with him?
52:39Well, what's he ever done compared to Henry?
52:41Henry?
52:42What is this Henry business?
52:44Is it possible that you're taking this marriage seriously?
52:46Have I ever done anything to make you think
52:48I don't take marriage seriously?
52:50You got into this business through a madcap idea of your own,
52:53which has made monkeys of us all.
52:55Well, maybe you feel like a monkey, but I don't.
52:58And certainly Henry doesn't.
52:59Well, if he doesn't, he's certainly behaving like one.
53:01I never saw a man go so completely playboy in my life.
53:03That's only a pose, Eric.
53:05Actually, I think the poor boy is very unhappy.
53:07Yes, you think so, because it flatters your vanity to think so.
53:09I suppose it flattered my vanity for you to go to a movie
53:12when you should have been at our wedding.
53:14Well, I showed up eventually, didn't I?
53:15Yes, an hour late.
53:16Fifteen minutes.
53:17Now, what is more, if you hadn't gone off half-cocked,
53:19we'd have been spared all this nonsense.
53:20Are you blaming me?
53:22Well, you impossible, egotistical idiot.
53:25If you don't get out, I'll lock myself in my room.
53:27Oh, no, you don't.
53:29You're not going to let me down like this.
53:31I've got my prestige to consider.
53:32Prestige?
53:33Well, why didn't you consider that before?
53:34You know, what you need is a jolly good spanking.
53:36Oh, you wouldn't dare.
53:38Oh, wouldn't I?
53:40I am my intruding.
53:42Yes, a matter of fact, you are.
53:43This is between Sheila and me.
53:45Now, look here, Tuffle, I resent this interference.
53:47Is that...
53:47That's the word.
53:48It reminds me of something I've wanted to do for a long time.
53:51And what may that be?
53:52Knock your block off.
53:54It's perfectly all right with me.
54:02Oh, Henry.
54:03I didn't know you could fight.
54:06Get up and I'll do it again.
54:08It's quite unnecessary.
54:11You've made me see the daylight.
54:13Obviously, Sheila and I are temperamentally unsuited.
54:16I, uh, wish you both the best of happiness.
54:20If by any chance, if there are any, uh, I'll send them a pair of bicycles.
54:30That was most cowardly.
54:36Well, uh, I mean, you must realize I've had the most hectic honeymoon.
54:39Oh, yes, I understand that thoroughly.
54:41So nice to have had you with us.
54:43Oh, thanks.
54:43Delighted.
54:45Look, there's one thing I do resent.
54:57Oh, Henry, I think you're wonderful.
55:00Get in there and pack.
55:01Pack?
55:01Yes, we're leaving.
55:02Leaving?
55:03I'm just beginning to enjoy myself.
55:05Well, you'll enjoy yourself in Reno, too.
55:07Reno?
55:07Oh, Henry!
55:09I won't go to Reno.
55:10Do you hear me?
55:11I won't go.
55:19Why are you ordering me to Reno?
55:21Ordering you?
55:22It was your plan.
55:24Well, that was a long time ago.
55:27I've changed my mind.
55:29I've made up mine.
55:33I won't divorce you.
55:35Then I'll divorce you.
55:39Well, you can't.
55:40You haven't any grounds.
55:41You forget that I'm a lawyer.
55:45Well, what grounds have you?
55:47You'll read them in my complaint.
55:49Oh, that's not fair.
55:51I haven't any lawyers.
55:52You'll find plenty of them in Reno.
55:55You married me, Henry Tuttle.
55:57And I'm your wife.
55:59I'm beginning to like married life.
56:02And I won't go to Reno.
56:03All right, stay here.
56:04I'm off to New York.
56:08Hello.
56:09Henry Tuttle speaking.
56:11Yes, I want to get a reservation on the 110.
56:13To New York.
56:16You can't go to New York.
56:18That's desertion.
56:19All right, sue me.
56:20Oh, Henry.
56:21Henry, I think I want to pay you.
56:25You missed.
56:27You can't leave me alone.
56:29You won't be alone.
56:31Here's Snookums.
56:35Henry Tuttle.
56:36If you do this to me,
56:38you'll be sorry.
56:39Oh, you're horrible.
56:42I'll do something desperate.
56:44Oh, no.
56:45Sheila.
56:45Oh, no.
56:59Sheila.
57:03Come back here, you little fool.
57:05I won't.
57:07Don't you come near me.
57:09You'll fall.
57:10I don't care.
57:11I don't care what happens
57:12if you're going to divorce me.
57:14I'm not going to divorce you.
57:16Then say you love me.
57:17I love you.
57:18I'm saying as if you mean it.
57:20All right, I love you.
57:23Say you'll never leave me.
57:25I'll never leave you.
57:26As long as you live.
57:27As long as I live.
57:29Now will you come back?
57:31Yes.
57:35Oh, Hillary.
57:37Hillary, I'm afraid.
57:38Don't look down.
57:38Don't look down.
57:38Come on, now look at me.
57:42That's a girl.
57:43That's a girl.
57:44Easy, does it.
57:46Eddie.
57:46Give me your hand.
57:50I've got you.
57:55You sap.
57:57You wonderful little sap.
58:17Oh, Henry.
58:19I love you.
