00:13:21 #148 Good night.

00:13:22 #149 Ooh, it's beginning to snow.

00:13:26 #150 You'd better come inside where it's warm and close the window.

00:13:29 #151 Oh, wait a minute.

00:13:30 #152 A little fresh air is good for you.

00:13:31 #153 Not me.

00:13:36 #156 Good night, Barry. Good night, honey.

00:13:37 #157 Good night.

00:13:38 #158 I feel terribly guilty letting Honey do all this for me.

00:13:43 #159 Oh, don't worry about her.

00:13:45 #160 She likes it.

00:13:45 #161 Honey's got the biggest heart in the world.

00:13:49 #162 That must be the dawn.

00:13:51 #163 See where it's getting light over there in the top of that building?

00:13:55 #164 The dawn of the new year.

00:13:57 #165 Does it mean that much to you?

00:13:59 #166 Everything.

00:14:00 #167 You said you were going to tell me what was in that letter.

00:14:02 #168 Did I?

00:14:03 #169 Sure, don't you remember?

00:14:05 #170 You said it was a passport to fame and fortune and happiness.

00:14:09 #171 It might easily be.

00:14:11 #172 Are you thinking of getting married?

00:14:14 #173 No, nothing like that.

00:14:15 #174 Well, then I can't imagine what it could be.

00:14:18 #175 It's a letter of introduction to John Manoring.

00:14:20 #176 John Manoring?

00:14:22 #177 They're great lovers. Is he?

00:14:24 #178 Well, so they say, on the screen and in private life, too.

00:14:28 #179 He's also a very great actor.

00:14:29 #180 Oh, he's a great actor, all right.

00:14:31 #181 All the mannerings are good actors.

00:14:33 #182 Well, I hope it brings you good luck.

00:14:35 #183 Thanks.

00:14:36 #184 Oh, it's getting cold.

00:14:37 #185 I think I'd better go.

00:14:43 #186 I guess that ought to be comfortable.

00:14:45 #187 Thanks.

00:14:47 #188 Have you and Barry been together long?

00:14:49 #189 For five years.

00:14:52 #190 For five long hard years.

00:14:55 #191 But I don't regret your day of it.

00:14:57 #192 Barry's been as well.

00:14:59 #193 He's taught me and I've helped him.

00:15:02 #194 And all we needed to break to get right up on top

00:15:04 #195 with Rogers and Astaire.

00:15:07 #196 And we'll get there.

00:15:09 #197 Nothing can stop us.

00:15:12 #198 Of course, no, let's throw a slipper at him.

00:15:14 #199 I'll be all right. Good night. Good night.

00:15:17 #200 John Mammering, celebrated stage and screen star,

00:15:30 #201 and Lydia Hoyt, his pretty 22-year-old bride-to-be,

00:15:34 #202 were greeted by a throng of eager, well-wishing fans

00:15:36 #203 as they stepped off the gangplank yesterday afternoon.

00:15:39 #204 Miss Hoyt will be the fourth Mrs. Manoring.

00:15:42 #205 The fourth Mrs. Manoring.

00:15:44 #206 They love him but divorce him.

00:15:46 #207 How to be like that?

00:15:48 #208 How about it, Megan?

00:15:55 #212 Uh, it's two o'clock.

00:16:01 #216 My only nice one was soaked in the fire. Okay. Yes?

00:17:58 #240 This happens to be a superb example of a Bachara prayer rug.

00:18:02 #241 It is not intended to be used as an ash tray.

00:18:10 #242 It was a cloudy day.

00:18:12 #243 The cemetery of Perlachens was the slate gray

00:18:16 #244 of a Joseph Penel Skyscay.

00:18:19 #245 I walked down the path past the tomb of Eloise and Abelard,

00:18:23 #246 and I stopped in reverence before it.

00:18:26 #247 Before the memory of their love that no man could put a sunder.

00:18:29 #248 I beg your pardon, sir.

00:18:30 #249 That no man could put a sunder.

00:18:34 #250 I went on in the mist until I came to where your sated grandmother lay.

00:18:39 #251 And there, one by one, as you directed, I let drop the springs of England.

00:18:46 #252 What kind of you to remember, miss you?

00:18:48 #253 For a friend, it was nothing.

00:18:51 #254 You stupid fool!

00:18:53 #255 You ill-missed home!

00:18:55 #256 I told you not to darken it too much.

00:18:57 #257 I wanted a bit of gray kept over the temple

00:18:59 #258 and you've made it look like a toupee.

00:19:01 #259 On the contrary, sir, touch of gray

00:19:02 #260 would look infinitely more studied.

00:19:04 #261 Stop lying. Only which one?

00:19:06 #262 There are a number of important matters, sir. Tell me all, Jules.

00:19:08 #263 This letter from Lou Woodstock.

00:19:09 #264 Well, what does he say?

00:19:11 #265 You old horse thief.

00:19:14 #266 Just a salutation of the letter, sir.

00:22:08 #316 I hope I didn't frighten you.

00:22:10 #317 Oh, that's quite all right.

00:22:13 #318 It's safe to come in now, sir.

00:22:16 #319 Won't you come inside?

00:22:17 #320 Thank you.

00:22:31 #321 Handwriting is familiar.

00:22:32 #322 Count is very easy.

00:22:34 #323 I don't believe you can guess. I think you have to read it.

00:22:37 #324 Please say something.

00:23:17 #325 Where have you been, my dear? Why haven't I known?

00:23:21 #326 I didn't know myself until recently.

00:23:24 #327 Take off your hat. No, don't touch it. Let me see you just as you are.

00:23:32 #328 Yes, I see it now.

00:23:35 #329 Same forehead. Same lovely hair.

00:23:39 #330 Only your mother's, I imagine, is turning gray.

00:23:41 #331 It turned very fast toward the end.

00:23:43 #332 She's dead.

00:23:45 #333 A few months ago.

00:23:47 #334 I was in New York trying to get a job.

00:23:49 #335 Someone wired me.

00:23:51 #336 When I got there, she...

00:23:53 #337 she gave me the letter.

00:23:55 #338 It was the first time I knew.

00:23:57 #339 She felt she owed it to me,

00:23:59 #340 and perhaps to you.

00:24:01 #341 And made me promise that...

00:24:03 #342 forgive me.

00:24:07 #343 Forgive you?

00:24:09 #344 I don't want to be any bother.

00:24:15 #345 Bother? My dear girl.

00:24:19 #346 Let me look at you again.

00:24:22 #347 That takes me back.

00:24:23 #348 Lower tears in her eyes too the last time I saw her.

00:24:26 #349 To think that I've found you.

00:24:41 #350 The first thing I remember was mother cutting out your clippings and pasting them in a big yellow scrapbook.

00:24:49 #351 Later I used to read the notices and pretend they were mine.

00:24:52 #352 Let's see, I played Ophelia with you and Rosalind and Roxanne.

00:24:58 #353 Oh, I was wonderful in that.

00:25:00 #354 And of course we went to all your pictures.

00:25:02 #355 I don't think mother ever missed any.

00:25:05 #356 Sometimes halfway through the story I'd see tears in her eyes.

00:25:09 #357 If I asked her why, she'd say the scene was sad.

00:25:13 #358 Once I teased her about it.

00:25:15 #359 Said she was too old to have a crush on a movie star.

00:25:19 #360 She didn't answer, but I thought I'd hurt her so I never mentioned it again.

00:25:23 #361 How little one really knows.

00:25:25 #362 Why do you say that?

00:25:26 #363 If I had only realized, how could I?

00:25:29 #364 I was so young at the time, excitable, ambitious.

00:25:32 #365 without experience and a famous name to live up to.

00:25:35 #366 When she refused to leave Nashville and take to the road with me,

00:25:38 #367 I thought she didn't care.

00:25:40 #368 I called.

00:25:42 #369 I meant to go back, but somehow the time never came.

00:25:44 #370 There was always a new season, a new play.

00:25:48 #371 Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:25:50 #372 Lydia!

00:25:53 #373 I had no idea. Please don't let me disturb you.

00:25:55 #374 Lydia, darling, what a surprise. Is that new?

00:25:59 #375 Yes.

00:26:00 #376 I want to meet my poetry miss came off miss Martin how do you do miss Martin

00:26:07 #377 how do you do I'm afraid I've stayed too long will you excuse me thank you for

00:26:13 #378 being so kind and I won't bother you again until I hear from you I'll I'll

00:26:26 #379 see you to the elevator goodbye goodbye I haven't even your address how stupid of

00:26:46 #380 I'll write it down.

00:26:48 #381 I feel the worst kind of black heart.

00:26:58 #382 Why?

00:26:59 #383 I started to tell her. I had the intention of telling her.

00:27:02 #384 But the word daughter seemed to have stick in my throat.

00:27:04 #385 I guess being a father so suddenly has upset me.

00:27:07 #386 I understand. You can't suddenly spring a daughter on an unsuspecting world.

00:27:12 #387 No, I guess I'm just a vain and pompous idiot.

00:27:14 #388 No, you're not.

00:27:16 #389 You're famous. You're a reputation.

00:27:19 #390 And please believe me, I don't want to complicate your life.

00:27:23 #391 If anything, I'd like to add a little happiness to it.

00:27:27 #392 I'd like to feel that you can count on me for anything,

00:27:30 #393 as a father should.

00:27:32 #394 For the first time in my life, I... I can't find words.

00:27:36 #395 Let's not bother about telling it now.

00:27:38 #396 It's been our secret for so long.

00:27:41 #397 Let's keep it that way.

00:27:43 #398 Will you kiss me? Goodbye.

00:27:55 #399 And I'll call you soon.

00:27:57 #400 Goodbye.

00:28:15 #401 Protégé, why do you lie to me?

00:28:17 #402 Do you think I'm a stupid little fool?

00:28:18 #403 Now count yourself, Lydia. I didn't lie to you.

00:28:20 #404 You did. I didn't.

00:28:21 #405 You said she was a barb.

00:28:22 #406 But she was a barb. I mean, there was a barb.

00:28:24 #407 And now she's a potlige. Whose name?

00:28:25 #408 You couldn't even remember.

00:28:27 #409 Lies, lies, lies.

00:28:28 #410 She came to me with a letter of introduction

00:28:30 #411 from a very dear friend. Oh!

00:28:31 #412 Well, all right. If you don't believe me, here it is.

00:28:33 #413 No, no.

00:28:35 #414 I'm not going to show it to you.

00:28:36 #415 This is no way to begin a marriage.

00:28:38 #416 You ought to know. You've had enough experience.

00:28:41 #417 This trust heals not with poofs.

00:28:42 #418 If you quote anything, I'll scream.

00:28:44 #419 Scream, go ahead. It's good for you.

00:28:46 #420 I warn you, John.

00:28:47 #421 I'm not going to be long suffering like some of your other wives.

00:28:50 #422 The first time I catch you double crossing me, I'll walk out on you so fast that I...

00:28:53 #423 And Lady Amaya, do I want...

00:28:55 #424 How can you be so unfair to yourself?

00:28:57 #425 Don't you be unfair, that's all I ask.

00:28:59 #426 So lovely.

00:29:00 #427 So charming.

00:29:02 #428 Or I would no more...

00:29:03 #429 Go on, I can feel the cameras grinding.

00:29:05 #430 What you feel is the beat of my heart pounding for love of you.

00:29:14 #431 I must be out of my mind to think of marrying you.

00:29:17 #432 Just plain mad.

00:29:26 #433 It's all mine.

00:29:29 #434 To put those steps into engine be halfway to Benton hopper, Michigan by now.

00:29:34 #435 Say, when do we eat? I'm star.

00:29:36 #436 I wonder what you could be. It's after six o'clock.

00:29:38 #437 I don't know, but I wish you'd hurry. I'm dying to find out what happened.

00:29:42 #438 What makes you think you're gonna...

00:29:43 #439 Shut up, Johnny.

00:29:44 #440 Now wait a minute now. Now let's reconstruct this scene from a scientific point of view.

00:29:49 #441 Attractive girl goes to great lover's apartment to ask a favor, see.

00:29:54 #442 Now let me see. If I was a great lover and a girl came to my apartment.

00:29:59 #443 Oh boy, there's your answer.

00:30:02 #444 Barry, where are you going?

00:30:04 #445 Out.

00:30:07 #446 He's really got his bad.

00:30:08 #447 Okay.

00:30:11 #448 Oh, Barry, I'm so happy I'm going to break it.

00:30:13 #449 What's happy so late?

00:30:14 #450 Oh, he was wonderful.

00:30:15 #451 Oh, if I could only tell you...

00:30:19 #452 Tell me what?

00:30:20 #453 He's the kindest, sweetest, dearest man I've ever known.

00:30:22 #454 No wonder all the women are crazy about him.

00:30:24 #455 Yeah, that's just what I was afraid of.

00:30:26 #456 Oh, but he's thrilling, if you could just see him or hear him talk.

00:30:29 #457 Wait a minute, wait a minute.

00:30:30 #458 You haven't forgotten me. Have you? Barry?

00:30:32 #459 Remember Barry Page, the fellow that's crazy about you?

00:30:34 #460 Oh, Barry, I love you.

00:30:35 #461 I love you.

00:30:37 #462 Oh, I love everybody.

00:30:38 #463 Just a second.

00:30:39 #464 Are you by any chance making love to me and thinking about him?

00:30:42 #465 Don't be ridiculous.

00:30:43 #466 That guy must be a wizard.

00:30:44 #467 He is.

00:30:47 #468 Well, the dinner's on me.

00:30:48 #469 And he loves you. How did it go? Did you get in?

00:30:50 #470 Honestly, I don't know where to begin. He's wonderful.

00:30:52 #471 I can tell you that much.

00:30:53 #472 Did he show you his etching?

00:30:54 #473 Old people are all wrong to talk about him the way they do.

00:30:57 #474 He's a darling.

00:30:58 #475 He wouldn't have a flea.

00:30:59 #476 Well, it's nice to know he draws the line somewhere.

00:31:02 #477 Oh, Charlie, keep quiet.

00:31:04 #478 Tell me, Kay, what's he going to do for you, anything?

00:31:07 #479 Well, we didn't have time to talk about it,

00:31:08 #480 but I'm sure he will.

00:31:09 #481 You didn't have time.

00:31:10 #482 You've been gone for hours.

00:31:12 #483 Well, I was late in getting there,

00:31:13 #484 and then I had to wait to see him,

00:31:14 #485 and we had tea in the front.

00:31:15 #486 I'm famished.

00:31:16 #487 Let's hear the rest about him at dinner.

00:31:17 #488 All right, where should we go?

00:31:18 #489 Will Charlie go too? Of course.

00:31:20 #490 If you take that dumb, you'll upset the whole restaurant again.

00:31:22 #491 And now hiding me under a shawl,

00:31:24 #492 either I go as an American citizen,

00:31:26 #493 or I'll stay at home in a trunk.

00:31:27 #494 I don't blame you Charlie. Come in.

00:31:32 #495 Telephone Miss Martin. For me? Who is it?

00:31:34 #496 He says it's John Manning. But I have my doubts.

00:31:38 #497 Excuse me please. Hello? Tonight?

00:31:48 #498 He hasn't lost much time has he?

00:31:50 #499 She must have made a hit. Yeah.

00:31:57 #500 Oh of course I'll come. Where and when?

00:32:00 #501 Part Plaza. Meet me there at eight. All right?

00:32:04 #502 Look you're prettiest. All right. I'll be there at eight.

00:32:07 #503 Good bye.

00:32:09 #504 Barry.

00:32:10 #505 Yeah?

00:32:11 #506 He wants me to have dinner with him.

00:32:13 #507 Do you mind?

00:32:14 #508 Me?

00:32:15 #509 Mind?

00:32:16 #510 No, certainly not.

00:32:17 #511 Go right ahead.

00:32:18 #512 Oh, don't be that way.

00:32:19 #513 Well, how would you expect me to be happy because you're broken a date with me to go

00:32:21 #514 out with another guy, especially after you've been with him all afternoon?

00:32:24 #515 It isn't like that.

00:32:26 #516 Or if you only knew.

00:32:27 #517 Oh, please be sensible.

00:32:29 #518 Manoring isn't another guy, as you put it.

00:32:31 #519 He's a man who's going to be married in a week.

00:32:33 #520 He's in love with Lydia Hoyt.

00:32:35 #521 She has a headache and he's free for this evening.

00:32:38 #522 There won't be another chance and he's kind enough to give this evening to me and my worries.

00:32:42 #523 Oh, it means a great deal to me, Barry. You know that.

00:32:45 #524 Doesn't that make any sense at all to you?

00:32:47 #525 Well, sure it makes sense. I haven't got a comeback.

00:32:50 #526 I can't find a flaw in your argument anywhere.

00:32:53 #527 It's logical, it's convincing, it's reasonable, and it's sound.

00:32:57 #528 But just the same, and nevertheless, I'm sore as a poison puff.

00:33:00 #529 That's masculine logic for you.

00:33:02 #530 for you the logic and all logic at that time and I'm going to make a

00:33:05 #531 a better. Even in the morning. Good evening madam your table is ready.

00:33:27 #532 The ice is just a pump on the surface from Palm Beach by plane this

00:33:30 #533 morning I'm going to leave it to you and I remember this is a very special

00:33:34 #534 occasion thank you sir. What are you smiling at.

00:34:18 #542 carefully budgeted the only trouble is the money and the budget don't seem

00:34:21 #543 to come out together at the end of the month.

00:34:24 #544 No manoring ever made a budget.

00:34:26 #545 Let alone live up to it.

00:34:27 #546 You won't have to worry about that anymore, my dear.

00:34:33 #547 Sprain your neck if you're not careful.

00:34:35 #548 I don't care.

00:34:36 #549 I think it's terrible.

00:34:37 #550 Three weeks until the wedding and he's out with another girl.

00:34:42 #551 You wouldn't be calling Lydia, would you?

00:34:44 #552 Don't be upset.

00:34:45 #553 The nearest telephone is right out there.

00:35:12 #554 Hello, Lydia?

00:35:14 #555 Darling, this is Maud.

00:35:17 #556 Maud, dear.

00:35:19 #557 Maud Raleigh.

00:35:20 #558 Oh, hello.

00:35:21 #559 Why don't you well?

00:35:23 #560 John and I have both worn out.

00:35:24 #561 We've been going so hard.

00:35:26 #562 I'll be glad when the wedding's over.

00:35:28 #563 Oh, then everything is all right.

00:35:30 #564 Oh, I'm so relieved.

00:35:32 #565 When I saw John come in with someone else and someone's...

00:35:35 #566 So attractive, my dear.

00:35:37 #567 I got positively jittery.

00:35:39 #568 Why, where are you calling from?

00:35:40 #569 The Park Plaza.

00:35:41 #570 But I did want to call up and find out

00:35:43 #571 if everything was all right.

00:35:44 #572 Of course, John was a sensation

00:35:45 #573 when he walked in as usual.

00:35:47 #574 Sarah.

00:35:50 #575 I'm going out.

00:35:52 #576 We've been very lucky. We've skipped all the bad parts.

00:35:55 #577 You've never had to lecture me because I flaunt algebra.

00:35:58 #578 You've never had to decide about schools and report cards and taffeta, party dresses.

00:36:02 #579 Whether I should bob my hair or the Joe Glutz was a proper boyfriend for me.

00:36:07 #580 Was he, Catherine?

00:36:08 #581 He was the butcher's son.

00:36:10 #582 Oh, most un-suitable.

00:36:12 #583 I haven't seen him since I was 13.

00:36:14 #584 And there hasn't been anyone since?

00:36:16 #585 Oh, one or two.

00:36:17 #586 One or two?

00:36:18 #587 Well, what?

00:36:19 #588 One at a time is enough.

00:36:21 #589 I found it that way with my wives.

00:36:23 #590 You're very frank about them.

00:36:25 #591 Well, I never take my wives too personally.

00:36:28 #592 I don't allow myself to become too deeply attached because I hate to suffer.

00:36:32 #593 You see, I know so well in advance that the time is coming when they can't stand it any longer.

00:36:36 #594 They'll have to divorce me.

00:36:37 #595 It's self-protection.

00:36:38 #596 Didn't it ever strike you to be so nice and faithful that they wouldn't want to divorce you?

00:36:43 #597 I always think I am.

00:36:44 #598 Then something happens.

00:36:45 #599 happens. But with video it's going to be different.

00:36:48 #600 I think that. Good evening.

00:36:54 #601 Is my damn looking for someone. Well yes sir. Never mind I found.

00:36:59 #602 Shall we dance. I'd love to. Will you excuse me a moment my dear I fear that I'm

00:37:15 #603 in a slight predictor. Of course. Let's go back to.

00:37:34 #604 I'm going to do for the last time you're not going to make a fool out of me.

00:37:37 #605 This is why you're being fully I told you this afternoon I wouldn't tolerate you

00:37:40 #606 to tell me that was the door you're making the scene.

00:37:42 #607 the door. I'm sorry. Give me a cab. What are you doing? I apologize.

00:38:02 #608 Tonight. I better not wait any longer. Something must have happened. Very good, madam. Oh,

00:38:44 #609 but I was with Mr. Manning. The Maître d'Hotel is going for the night, madam. I am only

00:38:48 #610 a way to put it the response to the 21 dollars. The chicken

00:38:58 #611 for the day to ask you to get me so close is not exactly chicken

00:39:02 #612 madam could I use your phone I certainly. This way please.

00:39:27 #613 Very that's where the left come. All right all right so I forgot the

00:39:31 #614 list what's the matter with you tonight. Oh it's a lot of. Generally gets to be

00:39:35 #615 around this time we finally get a chance for a job but it was only a chance let's

00:39:40 #616 drop the whole thing for tonight huh you know she ought to be home by now that's

00:39:46 #617 it huh still worried about Kay and the big bad wolf you act as though she were made

00:39:52 #618 a whipped cream believe it or not the big city's a lot kinder the little girls

00:39:57 #619 from the country than it used to be especially if they've got letters to the

00:40:01 #620 right people oh it's easy enough for you to talk like that you've been around

00:40:05 #621 But Kay is different.

00:40:06 #622 So was I once.

00:40:08 #623 I had hay in my hair too, but it took out fast after two seasons in the chorus.

00:40:12 #624 And no casualties either.

00:40:15 #625 So stop being a Rover boy.

00:40:17 #626 I guess I do sound like that.

00:40:19 #627 But every time I think of her having dinner with that guy, I could kick the ceiling off.

00:40:23 #628 Well, that's the way it is, huh?

00:40:26 #629 I guess I'm silly, but...

00:40:28 #630 I've never been in love before.

00:45:34 #696 I never sleep.

00:45:36 #697 I can't even close my eyes. I know.

00:45:39 #698 I haven't been able to work that out yet.

00:45:41 #699 Oh, there's a lot you haven't been able to work out yet.

00:45:45 #700 Such as, for instance?

00:45:52 #704 Why, tonight when she couldn't pay her check,

00:45:55 #705 he was the one she thought of.

00:45:56 #706 Well, it could have been you if you weren't so tongue-tied.

00:45:59 #707 Oh, I know, but I never can think of the right words.

00:46:02 #708 I could. You should let me tell her.

00:46:04 #709 Oh, I'm sick and tired of you saying everything that I want to.

00:46:07 #710 What's that?

00:46:09 #711 Where is number 217? Over there.

00:46:32 #712 My, my. What a load.

00:46:47 #714 Be careful.

00:46:56 #715 Smart fella, huh?

00:47:16 #721 Yeah, would you get along, Mr.

00:47:19 #722 Oh, ventriloquist.

00:47:28 #726 Wait a minute, I'll be right down.

00:47:30 #727 Yeah, we'll be right down.

00:47:31 #728 Don't look now, Bergen, but I think I've picked up the splinter.

00:47:54 #729 I wonder what he wants.

00:47:58 #730 Well, well.

00:47:59 #731 He's wonderful.

00:48:01 #732 This is a strange time to be making a call.

00:48:03 #733 But I'm not making you call.

00:48:05 #734 I wouldn't come at this hour if it wasn't important.

00:48:07 #735 You better wait until later.

00:48:08 #736 No, I want to see you now.

00:48:10 #737 All right.

00:48:11 #738 If you come up to my room, I'll see if I can get Miss Martin for you.

00:49:43 #757 Oh, Catherine dear, I didn't understand it.

00:49:47 #758 Edgar, may I use your room for a moment?

00:49:50 #759 Certainly.

00:49:51 #760 Well, there he is.

00:49:52 #761 You know, Catherine, this is a great talent.

00:49:55 #762 I thought that I'd seen everything in my life,

00:49:57 #763 but this is too extraordinary.

00:49:59 #764 Mr. Henry, may I speak to you alone?

00:50:02 #765 Would you excuse us, please?

00:50:04 #766 You won't apologize.

00:50:06 #767 You're disappointed in me, aren't you?

00:50:20 #768 I don't know what to think.

00:50:22 #769 It's not a good point, isn't it?

00:50:24 #770 I don't know what to think.

00:50:26 #771 Would you like a cup of coffee?

00:50:28 #772 No, no, I'll be all right.

00:50:30 #773 I shouldn't have come here like this tonight,

00:50:32 #774 but I wanted to explain.

00:50:34 #775 Lydia saw us at the plaza.

00:50:37 #776 We had a scene.

00:50:39 #777 It's all over, Catherine.

00:50:41 #778 Over? Because of me?

00:50:44 #779 And you didn't tell her even then?

00:50:46 #780 I couldn't.

00:50:47 #781 But why?

00:50:48 #782 She wouldn't let me.

00:50:50 #783 She wouldn't even listen to me.

00:50:52 #784 Now that it's over, I don't care.

00:50:55 #785 Well, someday you're going to hate me for this.

00:50:58 #786 You wish I'd never come.

00:50:59 #787 Don't say that.

00:51:00 #788 Well, that's a sign of prosperity.

00:51:05 #789 More handkerchiefs than mirrors face.

00:51:07 #790 Come in.

00:51:09 #791 Good morning, lady.

00:51:10 #792 Hi, Aunt Barry.

00:51:12 #793 We can have that booking in Pipsquare.

00:51:13 #794 Oh, Swell.

00:51:14 #795 Is Kay here?

00:51:16 #796 No, she isn't.

00:51:17 #797 I'll say she isn't.

00:51:19 #798 Where is she?

00:51:20 #799 She had to go out.

00:51:21 #800 I'll say she had to go out.

00:51:22 #801 Out? Out where?

00:51:24 #802 I don't know. She didn't tell me.

00:51:26 #803 Say what's going on here? Oh don't mind us old boy. We didn't get much sleep last night. The traffic was terrific

00:51:34 #804 Come on. Come on Coral. What's on your mind?

00:51:37 #805 Nothing old boy. Nothing

00:51:41 #806 Honey

00:51:42 #807 What's she talking about?

00:51:45 #808 Manoring dropped into CK. Manoring?

00:51:48 #809 When? At 4 a.m. as the crow flies. He was a little tight.

00:51:53 #810 Claster eight. Probably just wanted to apologize to Kay for leaving her at the park

00:51:58 #811 Plaza. At least that's what we think. Of course we couldn't hear much after they

00:52:01 #812 closed the door. Kay took him home. Oh she did. It was the only thing she could do Barry.

00:52:07 #813 This is the way the idle rich live huh? Charlie you see Bergen if you were only

00:52:21 #814 a dramatic actor we could have all this junk I mean father all. Oh Charlie I

00:52:26 #815 work pretty hard for all this. Don't come come all you do is mug a little and have a

00:52:30 #816 a popular meeting. Andrews some more coffee please Mr.

00:52:34 #817 Bergen and Mr. McGarney yes just put a head on a

00:52:36 #818 sauce. Putting on a low weight aren't you Andrews

00:52:42 #819 and you know excuse me. That's quite all right old fellow I do it myself

00:52:49 #820 sometimes. No sense of humor at all. You know Bergen is an

00:52:58 #821 an outrage that the public doesn't know Charlie.

00:53:00 #822 He ought to be working constantly.

00:53:01 #823 That's what I say.

00:53:02 #824 Well, we haven't worked for months.

00:53:04 #825 I'm afraid ventriloquism is a thing of the past.

00:53:07 #826 Well, I don't.

00:53:08 #827 Andrews, get Mr. Cummings at the land stuff on the telephone.

00:53:11 #828 Very good, sir.

00:53:12 #829 Make it snappy, Andrews, will you?

00:53:14 #830 What are you going to do?

00:53:15 #831 I'm going to try to get Charlie the chance he deserves.

00:53:18 #832 That'll be wonderful.

00:53:19 #833 Did you hear, Aunt Bergen?

00:53:20 #834 I don't want you to try to horn in on this thing either.

00:53:22 #835 Mr. Cummings, please.

00:53:24 #836 Mr. Cummings.

00:53:25 #837 Andrews, let me talk with you, please.

00:53:29 #838 Hello, Tony. This is John Manning talking.

00:53:32 #839 Hey, Tony, what is our next gamble? Sunday week.

00:53:35 #840 Oh, well, that's splendid.

00:53:36 #841 I've got a specialty act that I want you to put in.

00:53:39 #842 The name is Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy.

00:53:41 #843 That's all I'm going to tell you.

00:53:43 #844 I'll let them talk to themselves.

00:53:45 #845 When can you see them?

00:53:47 #846 Well, uh, how long will you be there?

00:53:50 #847 All right, I'll send them over.

00:53:52 #848 Thanks very much, Tony. Goodbye. Right away? Oh, there's no hurry.

00:53:55 #849 Oh, that's what you think.

00:53:56 #850 Mr. Manning, I can't begin to express well.

00:53:57 #851 I mean, after all, you're a stranger.

00:53:59 #852 I mean, well, I hope that's why you let Charlie say it.

00:54:02 #853 Yeah, what he's trying to say is thanks.

00:54:04 #854 They call me a dummy.

00:54:06 #855 I wonder if I could have some paper to wrap Charlie in.

00:54:08 #856 Andrew's a paper blade.

00:54:09 #857 What's the idea of ranting me up?

00:54:11 #858 Are you ashamed of me?

00:54:12 #859 Always playing cilantro and other?

00:54:14 #860 Can't go out and draw daylight in the food rest.

00:54:16 #861 You can push around.

00:54:17 #862 I think we better wrap him up on the floor.

00:54:19 #863 On the floor, Benny, Alex.

00:54:21 #864 Oh, that's nice. Thank you. I'm sorry.

00:54:23 #865 Easy, easy, Andrews.

00:54:24 #866 You're going to bust something.

00:54:26 #867 Now, if you bend your head.

00:54:27 #868 No, no, you don't.

00:54:29 #869 No, you don't.

00:54:30 #870 Well, you take his hand.

00:54:31 #871 Well, give me a check on it.

00:54:33 #872 It's a hip joint.

00:54:34 #873 You move down here.

00:54:36 #874 Oh, give me a pillow, Bergen. I'm sorry.

00:54:39 #875 I thought it better wrap up his hip first.

00:54:41 #876 Good idea. Let's do the idea.

00:54:42 #877 I'll take it with me.

00:54:44 #878 All right.

00:54:45 #879 What's this, Bergen?

00:54:46 #880 Judge refuses alimony. Oh, no. No, that's not it.

00:54:49 #881 I need you with my legs.

00:54:50 #882 Oh, you and your tippy.

00:54:51 #883 Put it out with your hand.

00:54:53 #884 Just use the clippers and back, yes?

00:54:55 #885 I don't know how to wrap him up.

00:54:57 #886 Suppose you get down here now or I'll wrap you up.

00:54:59 #887 No, you're tickling me.

00:55:01 #888 I feel so silly.

00:55:08 #889 I'll have him tied up in a bit and so.

00:55:09 #890 You're terribly sweet to do this.

00:55:11 #891 I appreciate it.

00:55:13 #892 Am I forgiven?

00:55:14 #893 For what?

00:55:15 #894 For last night.

00:55:16 #895 Of course.

00:55:17 #896 Hey, you're pinching me, lingo.

00:55:25 #897 I can't agree.

00:55:26 #898 You ouch.

00:55:28 #899 Dirty double crossing, good for nothing.

00:55:30 #900 Well, I'd better run along before the real language starts.

00:55:32 #901 You haven't heard anything yet.

00:55:34 #902 Goodbye, old Tara.

00:55:35 #903 Good luck. Thanks.

00:55:36 #904 Goodbye, Kate.

00:55:37 #905 All right, Mr. Manning.

00:55:38 #906 I'll give you a ring tonight if I can get away from Bergen.

00:55:44 #907 Thank you. Goodbye.

00:55:45 #908 Yeah, goodbye. Goodbye.

00:55:46 #909 Who am I saying goodbye to?

00:55:47 #910 Andrews. Oh, Andrews.

00:55:48 #911 Remind me next time I come here to solve it.

00:55:50 #912 All right, all right. Why are we waiting for it?

00:55:53 #913 We're waiting for the elevator.

00:55:54 #914 Will you please shut up?

00:55:54 #915 Well, how am I supposed to know?

00:55:56 #916 I can't see.

00:55:59 #917 Hello, Bergen.

00:56:00 #918 Will you get down there? Kiss me.

00:56:03 #919 All right.

00:56:05 #920 Down? Down, yes.

00:56:06 #921 Yeah, down and out.

00:56:07 #922 Biggie, you buddy, I got a weak heart.

00:56:12 #923 Which is Manoring's apartment?

00:56:13 #924 Right across the hall, sir. Yes, sir?

00:56:27 #925 I want to see Mr. Manoring. Are you expected? No.

00:56:29 #926 Mr. Manoring sees no one except by appointment. I'm sorry, sir.

00:56:32 #927 Well, you tell him it's very important.

00:56:33 #928 I've got to see him right away.

00:56:35 #929 I beg your pardon, sir.

00:56:38 #930 If you will be good enough to sit down, sir,

00:56:40 #931 I'll see what I can do.

00:56:49 #932 I beg your pardon, sir.

00:56:50 #933 There's a gentleman who insists on seeing you.

00:56:52 #934 Will you pardon me, dear?

00:56:53 #935 Of course. What's his name?

00:56:56 #936 I didn't quite get it, sir.

00:56:57 #937 Andrews, if you let in another process several,

00:56:59 #938 I'll have your hide.

00:57:07 #939 Good morning.

00:57:08 #940 Mr. Manor.

00:57:09 #941 Yes, what can I do for you?

00:57:10 #942 Where is she? She?

00:57:12 #943 Who?

00:57:13 #944 Mr. John Manor.

00:57:16 #945 The great movie actor.

00:57:20 #946 The guy that's so marvelous that all the women fall in love

00:57:23 #947 with so easily.

00:57:25 #948 Well, I'm glad that I finally got a good look at you.

00:57:27 #949 What is this?

00:57:28 #950 All my life I've had an insane desire to twist your nose.

00:57:32 #951 How dare you!

00:57:33 #952 How?

00:57:34 #953 Charming.

00:57:35 #954 How, sir, is it the police?

00:57:36 #955 You look great.

00:57:37 #956 Help! You ruined my face!

00:57:38 #957 Poor darling. Oh.

00:57:47 #958 Oh, Barry, how could you?

00:57:50 #959 So you know this, Ruffian.

00:57:52 #960 I'll have you in jail for this.

01:03:49 #1043 What's going on in there?

01:03:51 #1044 Charlie McCarthy is causing a riot among the guests.

01:03:54 #1045 Say, find a thing not allowing women at the Lamb's gamble.

01:03:57 #1046 I'd have given anything to have seen Charlie moan down.

01:04:00 #1047 Listen, I'm going to tell you a secret.

01:04:03 #1048 Rudy Valley was there and he was so impressed with Morgan

01:04:05 #1049 that he's invited him to appear as guest out

01:04:07 #1050 as on his radio program.

01:04:08 #1051 Good heavens, what's it done he going to do on the air? Never you mind.

01:04:11 #1052 I have complete faith in Charlie.

01:04:13 #1053 That's funny. You know.

01:04:26 #1054 Oh, people, people, people.

01:04:28 #1055 I've never seen so many faces.

01:04:30 #1056 Such a distinguished looking mob.

01:04:33 #1057 We're mingling with the cream of society today. The cream?

01:04:36 #1058 Yes, indeed. What do you mean?

01:04:37 #1059 Well, you know, the cream floats on top.

01:04:40 #1060 Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:04:42 #1061 It's so disgusting. Well, look.

01:04:50 #1062 Of course.

01:04:53 #1063 Isn't this something?

01:04:54 #1064 Not much like they were boarding house in 45th Street, is it?

01:04:57 #1065 No, I'd miss 45th Street if I weren't so busy.

01:04:59 #1066 You're lucky to be away from it.

01:05:01 #1067 It's like a morgue since you and Honey and Barry left.

01:05:04 #1068 I expect Bergen will be checking out next.

01:05:06 #1069 Heard from Honey lately?

01:05:07 #1070 Had letter yesterday. They've been held over in Buffalo.

01:05:10 #1071 Oh, I've been there.

01:05:12 #1072 Had they been married yet?

01:05:14 #1073 No. Honey wants to wait until they play her hometown.

01:05:17 #1074 I fell in the punch-hole.

01:05:19 #1075 It's just crazy about you.

01:05:21 #1076 She's sober.

01:05:22 #1077 Tell me some more.

01:05:23 #1078 I want to be your friend.

01:05:25 #1079 Well, you could be my friend if you'd do me a little favor.

01:05:28 #1080 Oh, I'd love to.

01:05:29 #1081 What is it?

01:05:30 #1082 Would you loan me 50 cents until Wednesday?

01:05:33 #1083 No, no, I couldn't do that.

01:05:35 #1084 Tuesday until Monday?

01:05:37 #1085 No.

01:05:38 #1086 What's going on here?

01:05:39 #1087 You don't mean to tell me that you're trying to borrow money from this lady?

01:05:42 #1088 Well, I didn't mean to tell you.

01:05:44 #1089 No, no, no, worse than that I didn't get it or something.

01:05:47 #1090 I see.

01:05:48 #1091 Well, I'm sorry.

01:05:49 #1092 I'm glad you didn't give it to him.

01:05:51 #1093 And that reminds me, young man.

01:05:53 #1094 I left a quarter on my dresser this morning.

01:05:55 #1095 Yes.

01:05:56 #1096 And when I came back, the quarter was gone.

01:05:58 #1097 It was?

01:05:59 #1098 Yes.

01:06:00 #1099 And we are the only two people up there.

01:06:02 #1100 Well, there's always a...

01:06:04 #1101 Mr. Berg.

01:06:06 #1102 Your eyes, what you've said?

01:06:08 #1103 Yes, I do.

01:06:09 #1104 Your eyes, what you've done?

01:06:11 #1105 I do.

01:06:12 #1106 Well, that's the last straw.

01:06:14 #1107 The man has called me a common thief.

01:06:16 #1108 man has called me a common thief. Now listen, child, if I've made a mistake, oh,

01:06:19 #1109 there's nothing you can do. I want to apologize. There's nothing you can do, Mr.

01:06:23 #1110 Bergen. The wrong is done. Now listen, do. Listen, child, I'd be glad to

01:06:28 #1111 apologize. There's nothing you can do. All right, I'm sorry. I want to apologize.

01:06:33 #1112 You do? Yes. I really don't think you took it. Don't you think I took it? I

01:06:37 #1113 don't think so. And I want to apologize. You do? Yes. Will you forgive me?

01:06:42 #1114 Uh, well, you won't mention it again?

01:06:45 #1115 I'll never mention it again.

01:06:46 #1116 All right. I'll forgive you. Thank you. Yes.

01:06:49 #1117 Now that it's all settled, is it all right for me to keep the quarter? Well...

01:06:54 #1118 I don't think that's very funny.

01:06:57 #1119 You don't know.

01:06:58 #1120 Well, then why did you make me say it? Oh, I see.

01:07:00 #1121 Well, that kills him, yes.

01:07:03 #1122 You're not so clever either, Mr. Bergen. Oh, I'm not.

01:07:09 #1123 No. I can see your lips move.

01:07:11 #1124 Oh, you...

01:07:12 #1125 Oh, that burns him up, you know.

01:07:14 #1126 Yes.

01:07:19 #1128 Yes, you will.

01:07:21 #1129 Well, I'm sorry about that.

01:12:54 #1276 know but are you mad at me well I just I guess blood is sticking in water how

01:13:01 #1277 I'm not going to be a good guy.

01:13:06 #1278 Come, smile, my dear. That's better.

01:13:10 #1279 You know, I'm doing all this just to make you happy.

01:13:14 #1280 I'd be terribly disappointed if I thought I'd failed.

01:13:17 #1281 You haven't.

01:13:52 #1282 I came all this way hoping you'd ask me to marry you.

01:13:56 #1283 I couldn't.

01:13:57 #1284 But why not? There's nothing to prevent it now.

01:14:00 #1285 How can you say that? A blind man who has to be led round with a hand.

01:14:04 #1286 you by the hand for it's impossible for every good goal that big glances whispers I

01:14:11 #1287 wouldn't mind for myself but for you I couldn't have you pity because of me I love

01:14:16 #1288 you too much then there's nothing else in the whole world I care about it's no use

01:14:21 #1289 Mary you're in the world I'm out of it don't say that. Good good she's fine

01:14:28 #1290 my quality thank you I knew you'd think so John I can't tell you what a kick I got

01:14:34 #1291 when I heard your voice. I'd give anything to see you do it.

01:14:37 #1292 Why Lou, I haven't done a play in 12 years. You know that.

01:14:40 #1293 I couldn't even remember the lines.

01:14:42 #1294 I'd risk it. However, I suppose it's just as to argue Hollywood's got you.

01:14:48 #1295 Miss Martin, I regret saying that I'm not doing anything more this year.

01:14:52 #1296 Perhaps next season, you're still available.

01:14:55 #1297 I know you didn't mean to say you're not going to do this play.

01:14:56 #1298 I've got to have a star in the man's part, John.

01:14:59 #1299 If you won't do it, I can't think of anyone else. Couldn't you persuade him?

01:15:02 #1300 Oh no, I couldn't.

01:15:04 #1301 Well, too bad for me and for you too.

01:15:08 #1302 Well, goodbye, Miss Martin.

01:15:09 #1303 It was very nice.

01:15:10 #1304 And I'm sure you'll have no trouble on Broadway.

01:15:12 #1305 Thank you very much.

01:15:14 #1306 John, why don't you stick around a while?

01:15:15 #1307 Might recall some of your family's ancient glories.

01:15:20 #1308 Remember when your mother and father did

01:15:22 #1309 Romeo and Juliet together for 39 weeks?

01:15:25 #1310 Your brother did a fellow for 40?

01:15:28 #1311 Seems a pity to think you're not going to carry on.

01:15:31 #1312 You dog.

01:15:32 #1313 Good. Well, if you change your mind, it's too bad.

01:15:37 #1314 You know, you two would be very good together.

01:15:41 #1315 Goodbye.

01:15:42 #1316 Goodbye, Miss Martin.

01:15:43 #1317 Goodbye, Commander.

01:15:44 #1318 Bye, Joe.

01:15:49 #1319 Would you like to do this play with me, Catherine?

01:15:51 #1320 Oh, I'd love to.

01:15:53 #1321 But you mustn't. Not if you think it's wrong.

01:15:55 #1322 Wrong? How can it be wrong?

01:15:57 #1323 It's the least I can do for you.

01:15:59 #1324 If you're going on the stage at all,

01:16:01 #1325 it ought to be here, with me.

01:16:05 #1326 You see up there?

01:16:07 #1327 Second row on the balcony.

01:16:09 #1328 The end seat.

01:16:10 #1329 That's where I sat when I was ten years old.

01:16:13 #1330 Saw my mother for the last time.

01:16:15 #1331 That was a long time ago.

01:16:17 #1332 Too long.

01:16:18 #1333 Oh, but how well I remember that audience and their jewels and their airmen standing there cheering.

01:16:23 #1334 And they will again soon for you my dear.

01:16:26 #1335 And when you've taken curtain call after curtain call.

01:16:29 #1336 And they still want more of you.

01:16:31 #1337 I'll come out and put my arm around you before the footlights.

01:16:35 #1338 And I'll tell them Catherine. I'll tell them who you are. I hear so not four weeks ago

01:16:53 #1339 But it's not bringing manoring back. I hope you'll say so in your reviews. How's it go?

01:16:58 #1340 Sensational I mean as an actor. That's what I mean. I thought she was marrying a discovery

01:17:37 #1341 Good evening miss Martin behind the children lovely. Thank you. I'm so excited I can have a talk and who is it?

01:17:44 #1342 Oh, Johnny, you better call a half hour.

01:17:46 #1343 Half hour!

01:17:47 #1344 High four glasses, cocktail glasses, cards, and a table of our corporate downstage.

01:17:51 #1345 Hello, Captain.

01:17:52 #1346 Hello, Joe.

01:17:53 #1347 Take a look at that house.

01:17:54 #1348 Sold out.

01:17:55 #1349 Half hour, please.

01:17:56 #1350 Where shall I put these?

01:17:57 #1351 Out in the hall.

01:17:58 #1352 Is that the court he rehearsed with?

01:17:59 #1353 Yes.

01:18:00 #1354 Andrews?

01:18:01 #1355 Yes, sir.

01:18:02 #1356 How's Mr. Manor?

01:18:03 #1357 Is he here, yes?

01:18:04 #1358 No, miss.

01:18:05 #1359 What?

01:18:06 #1360 I've been here since 5.30.

01:18:07 #1361 You know how he dreads a New York opening.

01:18:09 #1362 He's always the last one.

01:18:11 #1363 You know how he dreads a New York opening.

01:18:12 #1364 He's always the last one in.

01:18:14 #1365 Well, even so, half hour has been called.

01:18:15 #1366 You better go check on him.

01:18:16 #1367 Very good, sir.

01:18:18 #1368 Yes, Joe.

01:18:47 #1369 Come here.

01:18:54 #1370 I think we've had the pleasure of meeting before.

01:18:56 #1371 I wouldn't call it a pleasure.

01:18:58 #1372 You seeing the show?

01:18:59 #1373 Do you think I'm a sucker?

01:19:01 #1374 Still a blundering, hot-headed fool, aren't you?

01:19:04 #1375 For my part, I'd be very happy if I never had to see you again.

01:19:07 #1376 I think I'll be able to arrange that all right.

01:19:09 #1377 Oh, it isn't as easy as all that.

01:19:12 #1378 You're still in love with her.

01:19:14 #1379 Otherwise you wouldn't be here.

01:19:16 #1380 Go on in, maybe you'll learn something.

01:19:18 #1381 From you?

01:19:19 #1382 Oh, don't argue.

01:19:20 #1383 Do as I say.

01:19:22 #1384 And when you hear my curtain speech,

01:19:24 #1385 come back and offer your apology.

01:19:26 #1386 On stage, places, please.

01:19:38 #1387 You're late, Mr. Manon.

01:19:39 #1388 Nonsense.

01:19:39 #1389 We've got a lot of time, Andrew.

01:19:41 #1390 Loads of time.

01:19:42 #1391 On stage.

01:19:49 #1392 My cane, Andrew.

01:19:51 #1393 My gloves.

01:19:53 #1394 My chapeau.

01:19:57 #1395 Are you all right, sir?

01:19:59 #1396 Well, of course I'm all right.

01:20:01 #1397 Can I get you some coffee?

01:20:02 #1398 No, I don't need any coffee.

01:20:04 #1399 I only had a couple of eyeballs just to steady my nerves.

01:20:08 #1400 Important night, Andrews.

01:20:10 #1401 House is sold out.

01:20:11 #1402 Yes, sir.

01:20:12 #1403 Miss Martin in her dressing room?

01:20:14 #1404 Yes, sir.

01:20:15 #1405 Andrews, that's my first lion.

01:20:20 #1406 I waited for you in the garden.

01:20:21 #1407 Oh, yes, of course.

01:20:22 #1408 I waited for you in the garden.

01:20:24 #1409 You know, Andrews, it's the strangest thing

01:20:27 #1410 But I can never remember my first lines on opening night.

01:20:31 #1411 Until I get on the stage, and then it all comes back to me.

01:20:37 #1412 Mr. Manley.

01:20:38 #1413 Oh, Andrew. You haven't too much time, sir.

01:20:44 #1414 Andrew, now you treat me like a child.

01:20:47 #1415 The act will run six minutes before I make my entrance.

01:20:50 #1416 And in six minutes I can make up for Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

01:20:53 #1417 I wonder if Barry's here.

01:21:04 #1418 He said he wasn't coming.

01:21:06 #1419 No, that was for honey's benefit. He isn't fooling her either.

01:21:09 #1420 May I have Charlie's autograph?

01:21:11 #1421 This is forgery, you know.

01:21:15 #1422 Charlie, may Sue me.

01:21:16 #1423 Thank you. Thank you, Mrs. Bergen.

01:21:18 #1424 Oh, I'm not Mrs. Bergen. I'm Mrs. McCarthy.

01:21:21 #1425 The scene is the drawing room of Richard Storm's Long Island Estate.

01:21:29 #1426 An evening in late spring.

01:21:31 #1427 Here that is.

01:21:50 #1428 Yes?

01:21:51 #1429 May I come in?

01:21:53 #1430 Not just now, Miss Martin. Mr. Manorings dressing.

01:21:56 #1431 I just wanted to thank you for the flowers

01:21:58 #1432 and tell him I'm going to do my best.

01:22:00 #1433 Thanks my dear and good luck same to you bottle snatcher

01:22:15 #1434 Too ghastly. I never even suspected anything until he brought her here for two years. So the house is full of people

01:22:22 #1435 Good luck. Thanks Joe. I need it. You don't know what tonight means to me

01:22:28 #1436 And when they're cheering you I'll come out and put my arm around you and I'll tell them who you are

01:22:35 #1437 What did you say nothing Joe wait and see I don't

01:22:39 #1438 I don't see why you need any help to wreck this one.

01:22:41 #1439 Oh, Jenny.

01:22:42 #1440 I'm going home.

01:22:43 #1441 The idea of you dragging me here away from my own guests simply because you should hate him.

01:23:01 #1442 Miss Draper, Mrs. Capes and my aunt.

01:23:03 #1443 How do you do?

01:23:04 #1444 Richard has told me a great deal about you.

01:23:07 #1445 Charlotte has told me a great deal about you.

01:23:09 #1446 Forgive me for leaving you now.

01:23:10 #1447 I've guests waiting.

01:23:11 #1448 I'd like to have a cup of tea with you if you're still here tomorrow.

01:23:14 #1449 I should love that.

01:23:15 #1450 Goodbye, Jenny.

01:23:16 #1451 Goodbye, Charlotte.

01:23:17 #1452 Sorry I can't help.

01:23:18 #1453 Oh, boy, Miss Trinthor.

01:23:19 #1454 Goodbye.

01:23:20 #1455 Goodbye. Where is everybody except Richard to be straight I like to have a talk with

01:23:26 #1456 you. I'm going to be very frank I wish you would. You're staying here.

01:23:32 #1457 To manage on stage just the moment I can do it and I can do it.

01:23:43 #1458 Ten years of those cursed pictures have done something to me. It isn't like carrying

01:23:48 #1459 a plane to York but they're ready to terrify anybody who has the tomato to come back from

01:23:52 #1460 Hollywood but you were excellent in Cleveland sir. Here that first line again

01:24:00 #1461 Andrew I waited for you in the garden I've got it I waited for you in the garden I

01:24:06 #1462 hated to leave because I wanted to see your face in the moonlight what's next

01:24:10 #1463 Andrew it's quiet and we can be alone. It's important that his family look out

01:24:15 #1464 to his interests when he chooses to ignore them I'm sorry you don't like

01:24:19 #1465 me the store because I'm leaving here tonight I'm never coming back and

01:24:23 #1466 Richard is coming with me.

01:24:25 #1467 Good luck, Mr. Manor.

01:24:26 #1468 Thanks, Joe.

01:24:27 #1469 You'll reject that all your life.

01:24:28 #1470 You're much too young for Richard.

01:24:29 #1471 You're not suited to it, I'm sure.

01:24:32 #1472 That may be, but he loves me.

01:24:34 #1473 And I love him.

01:24:36 #1474 And there's nothing you can do or say that can change that.

01:24:39 #1475 You'll be too sure of that.

01:24:40 #1476 They're confusing me.

01:25:04 #1477 I waited for you in the garden.

01:25:06 #1478 I hated to leave because I wanted to see your face at the moonlight.

01:25:10 #1479 Richard, can't we go away from here where it's quiet and we can be alone?

01:25:13 #1480 We can be alone here?

01:25:15 #1481 Please Richard, I'm not comfortable here.

01:25:25 #1482 But Mary, this is my home.

01:25:28 #1483 Mary, this is my home.

01:25:31 #1484 I want you to love it as I do.

01:25:33 #1485 Soon it will be all yours.

01:25:35 #1486 We've a lot to talk over before that.

01:25:37 #1487 Please Richard, let's go.

01:25:39 #1488 Whatever you say my dear.

01:25:41 #1489 I'll get my things and meet you in the car.

01:25:47 #1490 What's the matter with him Andrews?

01:25:48 #1491 Just nervous that's all.

01:25:50 #1492 He was very nice miss.

01:25:52 #1493 Thank you Andrews.

01:25:53 #1494 Riches, I didn't know you were down.

01:25:55 #1495 The others have all gone to supper.

01:25:57 #1496 Have they?

01:25:58 #1497 What's happened?

01:26:00 #1498 Did you ring, sir?

01:26:01 #1499 Oh, yes, sir.

01:26:03 #1500 Bring me my hat and coat, please, and have my car waiting.

01:26:05 #1501 Yes, sir.

01:26:06 #1502 They're not going out anywhere this evening, are you?

01:26:10 #1503 I guess.

01:26:12 #1504 Yes, I'm going into town.

01:26:14 #1505 Have you forgotten your guests?

01:26:16 #1506 Yes.

01:26:17 #1507 Not with men.

01:26:25 #1508 He's drunk.

01:26:30 #1509 Can't you go in the morning?

01:26:31 #1510 What's my next line?

01:26:35 #1511 Can't I even go into town without consulting you?

01:26:42 #1512 We did put it on, Dorothy.

01:26:54 #1513 You can't go on like this.

01:27:05 #1514 I should have lunged at I'm tend to.

01:27:07 #1515 This girl's presence in this place is his.

01:27:10 #1516 It's an intolerable humiliation.

01:27:12 #1517 You never seem to enjoy yourself as much, Charlotte.

01:27:38 #1518 That's what you're making it on.

01:27:47 #1519 You never seem to enjoy yourself as much, Charlotte.

01:27:49 #1520 Down the curtain. Bring down the seat.

01:27:53 #1521 Ladies and gentlemen,

01:28:29 #1522 due to the sudden illness of Mr. Manoring,

01:28:33 #1523 I regret to announce that we were unable to continue the performance this evening.

01:28:37 #1524 Your money would be refunded at the box office.

01:28:39 #1525 Why don't you say it, Catherine?

01:29:12 #1526 Why don't you say that I failed you?

01:29:16 #1527 Why don't you say that I'm a drunken husband?

01:29:20 #1528 I'd stay here for a little while if I were you,

01:29:50 #1529 so I wouldn't try to go out.

01:29:52 #1530 Was that manoring?

01:30:05 #1531 I didn't see his face.

01:30:06 #1532 It looked like him.

01:30:08 #1533 Well, you're the first to congratulate me.

01:30:33 #1534 What did you think of my night of triumph?

01:30:35 #1535 I can't imagine what happened.

01:31:05 #1536 Sir, he dragged himself on the field.

01:31:07 #1537 I liked what I saw in the world.

01:31:09 #1538 He smashed his own.

01:31:10 #1539 It would have been funny if it weren't for tragic.

01:31:12 #1540 Yeah, certainly it was Manor. I saw him myself.

01:31:26 #1541 He was hit by a taxi, I tell you, and badly injured.

01:31:28 #1542 Miss Kay Martin with him? Well, stick there. Call me if anything happens.

01:31:32 #1543 Hey, Susie. Find out where Kay Martin lives. Get her on the phone.

01:31:40 #1544 How should I know?

01:31:41 #1545 I'll put this stuff in the dressing room.

01:31:54 #1546 Oh, anywhere, Edgar. Just leave it there.

01:31:56 #1547 Shall I answer? Please.

01:32:00 #1548 Hello, reporters.

01:32:04 #1549 her. Martin has nothing to say she won't talk to any reporters. It's nearly eleven

01:32:14 #1550 and I know I've got to be the I'm on the air in a half hour. Good luck Edgar. Thanks

01:32:19 #1551 a lot for everything. If I could only tell you how sorry. All right Lancelot you've

01:32:23 #1552 said your piece get going you know what Charlie will do if you're late what he'll

01:32:27 #1553 clip your burger and he'll mow you down we'll do what we can it's useless to

01:32:36 #1554 operate opiates to relieve his pain is about all we can do with the present

01:32:40 #1555 Have you notified his family?

01:32:42 #1556 Mr. Manoring has no family, so...

01:32:44 #1557 He keeps calling for someone named Catherine.

01:32:46 #1558 Oh, yes, sir. Do you think he might see her?

01:32:48 #1559 Yes, sir.

01:32:49 #1560 Well, there's no reason why Mr. Manoring shouldn't do anything he wants to now.

01:32:52 #1561 Well, Doctor...

01:32:54 #1562 You know, the old thing seems to be...

01:32:57 #1563 Listen, operator, I told you, Miss Martin isn't talking to anybody.

01:33:03 #1564 No, not anybody. She has no statement to make.

01:33:06 #1565 Piss.

01:33:08 #1566 Oh, let them say anything they like.

01:33:11 #1567 Everything that's nasty and mean has already been printed in all those gossip columns.

01:33:15 #1568 How can they do me now?

01:33:17 #1569 Oh, you mustn't feel like that, Kay.

01:33:19 #1570 Oh, it's time for Edgar, do you mind?

01:33:21 #1571 Of course not.

01:33:22 #1572 He'd never forgive us if we didn't listen in and tell him how bad he is.

01:33:26 #1573 And now, ladies and gentlemen, the boys who have New York at their feet, Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarty.

01:33:41 #1574 Mr. Bergen, before we continue with another broadcast, I want you to answer me one question.

01:33:48 #1575 Do I get an increase in my allowance?

01:33:51 #1576 After all, 75 cents a week isn't enough.

01:33:55 #1577 What's that?

01:33:56 #1578 I'm afraid we're not going to be very funny tonight, Mr. Bergen.

01:34:01 #1579 I'm afraid not, Charlie.

01:34:03 #1580 Ladies and gentlemen, will you forgive us for not being at our best this evening?

01:34:07 #1581 Because a dear friend of ours, a great actor, met with a disaster.

01:34:11 #1582 He opened in a new play tonight, his first appearance on Broadway in 12 years.

01:34:16 #1583 years because he was nervous he went up in his lines and for the first time in a

01:34:21 #1584 long and brilliant career the curtain had to be rung down on John Manning must have

01:34:26 #1585 been a terrible blow to his pride if only we could tell him that it didn't matter

01:34:30 #1586 that every man is entitled to one month but we can't because 20 minutes after

01:34:36 #1587 the curtain came down John Manning was struck by a taxi and is now lying close

01:34:40 #1588 to death if any of his friends are listening in they all to go to him

01:34:44 #1589 He's at the Midtown Hospital.

01:34:46 #1590 Midtown Hospital? Where's the magic code? I'll take you.

01:34:49 #1591 Andrews, he's going to be all right, isn't he?

01:35:01 #1592 The reports are exaggerating.

01:35:04 #1593 I'm afraid not, Miss. He wants to see you.

01:35:07 #1594 It will make him very happy to know you're here.

01:35:13 #1595 I'll wait for you here.

01:35:48 #1596 You were asking for Miss Martin?

01:35:50 #1597 Yes, Andrews. Be sure.

01:36:18 #1598 To think I could be so selfish and cruel.

01:36:20 #1599 Darling, you've made me happier.

01:36:29 #1600 and all the people I've ever known.

01:36:50 #1601 It doesn't matter.

01:36:51 #1602 Yes.

01:36:57 #1603 The reporters.

01:36:58 #1604 They're downstairs. Do you want them to come up now?

01:37:00 #1605 Yes, yes.

01:37:01 #1606 Now rest.

01:37:10 #1607 But forgive me for being such a bad father.

01:37:17 #1608 Oh, darling, you haven't.

01:37:20 #1609 Never done anything for you.

01:37:22 #1610 But a father should tell the world about you.

01:37:36 #1611 Doctor, one moment, please.

01:38:48 #1612 Captain, I'm very sorry you're going away.

01:38:50 #1613 Why don't you stay here and do another play for me?

01:38:52 #1614 right away. I can't. Not while I'm I'm still a Roman holiday for all the gossip

01:39:00 #1615 columns. I feel I were capitalizing on his death. But he would have wanted you to go on.

01:39:06 #1616 Well maybe next year when they've forgotten all about me I'll come back

01:39:10 #1617 and try again. Well whenever you do decide let me know. Thanks. You've been very kind.

01:39:17 #1618 You want to make that can you better hurry. I think I have everything. Well I think

01:39:22 #1619 a good place where you're going to go and do it so you're going to

01:39:33 #1620 this corner. It's not enough so afraid I missed you you know I wouldn't go without

01:39:38 #1621 seeing you going through Mr Manning's effect I came across this letter of yours

01:39:44 #1622 I thought perhaps you'd like to keep it my letter of introduction thank you and

01:39:53 #1623 there's you you want not if you don't want me to miss but don't you think it

01:39:58 #1624 might be better for you know and there's no one would understand my waiting until

01:40:02 #1625 not to announce it if he had told it would have been different but if I were to tell

01:40:07 #1626 him I would only cause a lot more unpleasant publicity about him and I don't want that.

01:40:12 #1627 I understand.

01:40:18 #1628 I love you. Thank you.

01:40:30 #1629 This one could we have a statement please.

01:40:31 #1630 Please gentlemen I have nothing to say.

01:40:36 #1631 You planned to.

01:40:36 #1632 What are you doing?

01:40:38 #1633 All right, we're following you.

01:40:39 #1634 Sorry, we have to start.

01:40:41 #1635 One second.

01:40:42 #1636 Come on, come on.

01:40:43 #1637 Newspaper bloodhounds.

01:40:46 #1638 Are you going home?

01:40:49 #1639 OK, darling.

01:40:51 #1640 Yes, Barry?

01:40:52 #1641 All right, look, I always have, and I always will.

01:40:55 #1642 I was a fool, jealous, and suspicious.

01:40:58 #1643 I tried to forget you.

01:41:00 #1644 I nearly wrecked honey's life.

01:41:03 #1645 It doesn't seem possible so many things could happen

01:41:06 #1646 in so short a time.

01:41:09 #1647 and all because of this letter.

01:41:12 #1648 The letter that was to open the doors of fame, success and happiness.

01:41:17 #1649 And now...

01:41:19 #1650 now he's dead.

01:41:20 #1651 Did he mean so much to you?

01:41:23 #1652 More than anyone will ever know.

01:41:28 #1653 Then I guess there's nothing else to say.

01:41:33 #1654 Very dear.

01:41:35 #1655 Will you please read this?

01:41:36 #1656 If you tell him to hurry, we'll never get to the station in time.

01:41:54 #1657 Yes, step out of it.

01:41:55 #1658 Oh, let's not bother. They'll never go there.

01:41:57 #1659 You're pretty sure, aren't you?

01:41:58 #1660 Listen, Cora, that boy and that girl clicked the first moment they looked at each other.

01:42:02 #1661 It's that kind of a look that lasts until eternity.

01:42:05 #1662 My, my, how poetic, oh, shut up.

01:42:07 #1663 Oh, come on.

01:42:08 #1664 Edgar, is Charlie always going to come between us?

01:42:11 #1665 How do you like that?

01:42:12 #1666 This is my car.

01:42:13 #1667 Bergen bought it for me so I wouldn't have to be wrapped up in newspapers every time I went out.

01:42:18 #1668 Oh, I'm sorry, Charlie, but you are in the way. Yes.

01:42:21 #1669 Mr. Bergen and I have things to discuss.

01:42:23 #1670 Oh, sure.

01:42:24 #1671 I suppose you want to sit on his lap, huh? Yes.

01:42:27 #1672 Charlie, huh?

01:42:28 #1673 Would you be good enough to-

01:42:29 #1674 No I wouldn't.

01:42:30 #1675 Alright, don't be a saff.

01:42:31 #1676 As long as I'm between you, you're safe.

01:42:33 #1677 Why, if I leave, she'll take you like Grant, talk richly.

01:42:37 #1678 All join hands and chorus we will sing

01:42:41 #1679 The odd time in the old town tonight, my baby.
