00:00:00 #1 Getting on my nerves.

00:01:32 #2 Sorry, but it's Mrs. Mattle's orders.

00:01:34 #3 Mrs. Mattle, who's she?

00:01:35 #4 She's Mrs. Miss Mottinwall. She wasn't home for dinner tonight.

00:01:38 #5 I didn't even know he was married just a few moments ago.

00:01:41 #6 He's inclined to forget it himself at times. He's, uh, very susceptible.

00:01:46 #7 That's not an agreed susceptible.

00:01:48 #8 Maybe my it isn't working today.

00:01:51 #9 The day isn't over yet.

00:01:53 #10 What do you mean?

00:01:56 #11 As night draws on, at eight o'clock to be precise, he changes.

00:02:00 #12 Change your time?

00:02:01 #13 Well, during the day, Mr. Smith is a lawyer, a businessman.

00:02:05 #14 But at eight o'clock, the little birds start singing in his soul, and he begins to bloom.

00:02:10 #15 Bloom?

00:02:11 #16 Any pretty woman can twist him around her finger.

00:02:14 #17 Any pretty woman?

00:02:16 #18 Well, the prettier she is, the more twisted he gets.

00:02:20 #19 It's what they call prenatal influence.

00:02:24 #20 Oh, that's the new alibi for an old complaint.

00:02:27 #21 You notice the lady the song is called Madeline.

00:02:30 #22 That's Mrs. Miss Maymall's song.

00:02:32 #23 And Mother-in-law's idea to keep her mind on his after-wife.

00:02:36 #24 Exactly.

00:02:37 #25 Andrews?

00:02:38 #26 Yes, sir? His mind is very active tonight.

00:02:45 #27 Audubon 2456.

00:02:54 #28 Yes, please.

00:03:01 #29 Hello?

00:03:04 #30 Oh, Mindy.

00:03:05 #31 Say, listen, Diane, your husband didn't forget himself and stay home tonight, did he?

00:03:08 #32 No, he's out again.

00:03:10 #33 Well, listen, this is very important.

00:03:12 #34 You put on your prettiest dress and come over here.

00:03:15 #35 I've found the very lawyer to get your divorce for you.

00:03:17 #36 And from all I hear, it won't cost you any more than a smile or two.

00:03:22 #37 That sounds great, Mittie. Who is he?

00:03:26 #38 I say, who is he and where can I find him?

00:03:29 #39 He's the lawyer I started working for today.

00:03:31 #40 Mr. Richard Smith. You know the address.

00:03:34 #41 And, uh, Diane, get here by 8 o'clock.

00:03:39 #42 Yes, 8 o'clock. Will you come?

00:03:42 #43 Sure, I'll be there.

00:03:44 #44 Oh, Miss Smither.

00:04:01 #45 Mr. Smith wants you to bring a notebook and pencil.

00:04:03 #46 More dictation.

00:04:06 #47 Remarkable how active his mind is tonight.

00:04:09 #48 It's nearly at a clock.

00:04:11 #49 You would better hurry.

00:04:12 #50 Hurry, nothing.

00:04:13 #51 I want to see how a man acts when he, uh, blooms.

00:04:27 #52 Good evening, Andrews.

00:04:28 #53 I hope you haven't got dinner waiting for me.

00:04:30 #54 No, ma'am.

00:04:31 #55 Is Mr. Smith finished yet?

00:04:32 #56 He's having a dessert in his room.

00:04:34 #57 Dessert in his room, eh?

00:04:35 #58 Well, if I haven't, I got home before eight o'clock.

00:04:37 #59 Yes, ma'am.

00:04:38 #60 Just a minute, Andrew, as I'll take this.

00:04:40 #61 It's a new photograph record.

00:04:42 #62 But we must not let him grow tired of the other one.

00:04:44 #63 No, ma'am.

00:04:45 #64 A man can't be reminded too much of anything, even a wife.

00:04:59 #65 Desert in his roommate?

00:05:02 #66 Pardon me, were you looking for someone?

00:05:03 #67 Well, certainly not for you.

00:05:06 #68 I had no idea that Mr. Smith was entertaining

00:05:09 #69 lady friends.

00:05:10 #70 Well, I'd hardly say I'd gotten that far.

00:05:20 #71 I'm only here on trial.

00:05:22 #72 Trial?

00:05:24 #73 Yes.

00:05:25 #74 He promised that if I made good today, he'd keep me.

00:05:30 #75 Keep you?

00:05:32 #76 Oh.

00:05:33 #77 Oh, I see.

00:05:35 #78 And you're the new secretary.

00:05:37 #79 Well, of course.

00:05:38 #80 What did you think?

00:05:39 #81 Well, if you knew my son-in-law as I know him,

00:05:41 #82 you wouldn't blame me for having us judge, Joe.

00:05:43 #83 You don't mean he's a passion flower?

00:05:45 #84 Well, he's no geranium.

00:05:50 #85 And if you're wise, you won't stay here another minute. I don't mind.

00:05:55 #86 I get paid double for it.

00:05:56 #87 Nothing could pay you for what might happen.

00:06:00 #88 You're not at all the sort of young woman that should be around here after eight o'clock.

00:06:05 #89 You'd be surprised.

00:06:11 #90 Where in the name of St. Andrews?

00:06:14 #91 Yes, yes, sir. Yes, sir.

00:06:16 #92 The uproar in my filing cabinet is all broken. All my important papers all over the floor.

00:06:20 #93 Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

00:06:21 #94 Yes, sir.

00:06:25 #95 Miss Mide, you have those papers ready for my signature?

00:06:27 #96 Not yet, Mrs. Smith. You see your mother-in-law.

00:06:29 #97 Oh, hang my mother-in-law.

00:06:33 #98 Yes, sir.

00:06:33 #99 Huh? Oh, hello, Mother.

00:06:38 #100 Oh, Mother, pardon my English. I thought you were in Newark.

00:06:41 #101 I'm sorry to disappoint you.

00:06:43 #102 But Richard, if you're not too busy, I would like just a word with you.

00:06:46 #103 One word? Well, that's unusual, Mother. What is it?

00:06:48 #104 I want to see you alone.

00:06:49 #105 Well, that's impossible at the present moment, Mother. Impossible.

00:06:52 #106 But Richard, I have something very important to tell you.

00:06:54 #107 Miss Minter, Miss Minter, please. What did you do with those papers in the Randall murder case?

00:06:57 #108 Richard, I have a surprise for you.

00:06:59 #109 Oh, you're going home. Oh, I'm...

00:07:02 #110 Mother, please. Can't you see that I'm busy with Miss Minter?

00:07:04 #111 Miss Winter, please. Busy, busy, busy.

00:07:06 #112 Phew! Busy.

00:07:08 #113 Mother, your suspicions hurt me.

00:07:10 #114 Now, what possible objection can you have to Miss Winter?

00:07:12 #115 Well, I don't like her wiggle.

00:07:14 #116 Her what?

00:07:15 #117 Her wiggle. Her walk.

00:07:16 #118 Oh, I hadn't noticed it. Miss Winter, wiggle.

00:07:18 #119 That is walk, please.

00:07:24 #120 Oh!

00:07:25 #121 That will do.

00:07:26 #122 Never do that again during business hours. Never.

00:07:31 #123 Now, come, mother, come.

00:07:33 #124 Run along, run along like a good little girl,

00:07:35 #125 I promise you the only thing that she'll wiggle is her corona.

00:07:39 #126 But Richard, now we must have our talk.

00:07:42 #127 You'll send for me when she leaves.

00:07:44 #128 I will, Mother. I will if you'll promise not to come until I send for you.

00:07:48 #129 All right, Richard dear. Do you remember? I trust you.

00:07:53 #130 Since when? Now, Miss Mitter, where were we?

00:08:01 #131 Ah, yes, yes, yes.

00:08:04 #132 Oh, yes. Remarkable speech of Richard Smith in the Randall murder case.

00:08:09 #133 The eminent lawyer.

00:08:11 #134 Oh, my word.

00:08:13 #135 That's a picture of me.

00:08:15 #136 You couldn't tell me from the murderer.

00:08:18 #137 I could sue a firm like this, sue them for libel.

00:08:21 #138 Come, come, come, come, come.

00:08:23 #139 To work, dictation. Take a letter.

00:08:25 #140 You ready?

00:08:26 #141 Shoot?

00:08:27 #142 I...

00:08:28 #143 Dignity, please, Miss Mitter, during office hours.

00:08:31 #144 I'll try it again. Are you ready?

00:08:33 #145 Yes, Miss Mitter.

00:08:34 #146 That's better.

00:08:35 #147 Mr. George Spelvin, Elizabeth Town, New York, dear sir.

00:08:38 #148 Got that?

00:08:39 #149 Just a minute.

00:08:40 #150 Miss Menter, what is the matter?

00:08:42 #151 Mr. Smith.

00:08:43 #152 Mr. George Speldin was the name.

00:08:44 #153 Elizabeth Towne, New York, dear sir.

00:08:57 #158 Murder, don't tell me.

00:09:00 #159 Your suggestion that two weeks in the country

00:10:40 #185 Oh, oh, you little wisecracker.

00:10:43 #186 You may wiggle for me if you like.

00:10:51 #187 Yes, that'll do.

00:10:53 #188 Mother was right.

00:10:55 #189 A very dangerous woman.

00:10:58 #190 Doubly dangerous.

00:11:00 #191 Andrews.

00:11:04 #192 Oh, Andrews.

00:11:08 #193 Andrews, bring a cordial.

00:11:10 #194 Would you please?

00:11:10 #195 Sorry, sir, but there's not a drink in the house.

00:11:13 #196 Mrs. Mantle's order, sir.

00:11:16 #197 Oh, how stupid.

00:11:18 #198 But you weren't thirsty anyway, were you?

00:11:20 #199 No.

00:11:21 #200 But you didn't say anything about nothing being on the hip.

00:11:26 #201 Good old Andrews.

00:11:27 #202 Your Andrews is a perfect container.

00:11:30 #203 I mean, retainer.

00:11:33 #204 Bring some glasses, will you, Andrews? Yes, sir.

00:11:35 #205 Well, you said you'd give me a day's trial.

00:11:39 #206 How do you like my work?

00:11:40 #207 A little rough, but sincere.

00:11:43 #208 You consider yourself engaged.

00:11:44 #209 Thank you. Thank you, ma'am.

00:11:47 #210 Thank you.

00:11:48 #211 You're quite sure that this is fit for a lady?

00:11:51 #212 That'll fit anybody, sir.

00:11:52 #213 Say no more.

00:11:54 #214 Will you want me any more this evening, sir?

00:11:58 #215 Not this evening.

00:12:00 #216 Thank you, sir.

00:12:01 #217 Thank you.

00:12:02 #218 Da-dee-da-da-da-dee-da-da.

00:12:06 #219 Loose moments.

00:12:11 #220 You know, Miss Middap.

00:12:13 #221 All great men must have their moments of relaxation.

00:12:16 #222 And the greater the man, the greater the moment.

00:12:19 #223 Are you suggesting anything?

00:12:21 #224 Anything.

00:12:28 #225 You like dancing?

00:12:29 #226 I love dancing.

00:12:31 #227 Is that so?

00:12:36 #228 Loose moments.

00:13:27 #229 What have you got on tonight?

00:13:28 #230 Nothing. I can't get out of. Why?

00:13:33 #231 You know, you and I and Jesse James

00:13:35 #232 were just made for each other. Oh, really?

00:13:37 #233 Yes.

00:13:38 #234 I wonder. I wonder.

00:13:39 #235 Will you meet me tonight at 10?

00:13:41 #236 10? Where?

00:13:42 #237 The lounge in the Hotel Astor. We'll have a little supper.

00:13:44 #238 We'll have a little dance.

00:13:45 #239 And oh, you have a pretty mouth.

00:13:47 #240 Oh, I like your mustache.

00:13:49 #241 Really? Well, shall we introduce them?

00:13:59 #242 Oh, Mother. I see you have on your rubber heels again.

00:14:03 #243 Miss... Miss Minter just met with a serious accident, yes, Minter.

00:14:07 #244 These things are very painful, but they must be endured.

00:14:10 #245 There. You feeling better?

00:14:12 #246 Yes.

00:14:13 #247 So am I. Miss Minter is just leaving.

00:14:16 #248 Yes, thank you. Will you need me tomorrow, Mr. Smith?

00:14:19 #249 At 10. 10 at the Aster.

00:14:21 #250 Was that richie?

00:14:23 #251 Huh? Oh, I said 10 o'clock.

00:14:25 #252 You said Aster.

00:14:26 #253 Did I? Yes, I asked her to come at 10.

00:14:29 #254 Well, I wish you a good night.

00:14:33 #255 Oh, a very, very, very good night.

00:14:44 #256 Richard, I want to talk to you about something of great importance.

00:14:48 #257 Oh!

00:14:49 #258 This is an upgrade.

00:14:50 #259 The idea of leaving important matters like this laying around on my desk. Andrews!

00:14:54 #260 What has happened?

00:14:55 #261 Oh, I told you. You know I told you.

00:14:57 #262 Of course I... Now look. Now it's happened. Where are you going?

00:15:00 #263 I'm going downtown on business.

00:15:01 #264 Andrews, my hat, my stick, yes.

00:15:03 #265 You're not going out of this house tonight.

00:15:04 #266 I have to, Mother. You don't understand.

00:15:06 #267 This is a matter of life or death.

00:15:08 #268 Andro, if anybody telephones to me, you tell them that I've gone.

00:15:10 #269 He won't. You haven't gone.

00:15:19 #270 Mother, would you stoop to do a thing like that?

00:15:24 #271 I'd do anything to keep you from going out.

00:15:26 #272 You don't seem to understand. This is for Mrs. Roach, Mrs. Cochran Roach.

00:15:29 #273 I don't care what kind of a Roach she is.

00:15:31 #274 But I'm handling all her private affairs.

00:15:33 #275 Well, you can do it in the daytime, not at night.

00:15:34 #276 Her husband is starting to shoot her. And if he does that, I'll probably lose my fee.

00:15:38 #277 And if you go, you'll probably lose your life. Let me see that note.

00:15:42 #278 I'd never. This is private.

00:15:44 #279 You mean it's an alibi. Andrews, take Mr. Smith hat and stick.

00:15:51 #280 Now Richard Smith, sit down.

00:15:55 #281 And you listen to me.

00:16:00 #282 You know I'm fond of you.

00:16:03 #283 Well, anybody can see that, mother.

00:16:05 #284 And you promised madam as long as she was away that you'd conduct your business

00:16:09 #285 here and never go out at night.

00:16:11 #286 A lawyer's night, mother.

00:16:12 #287 You'd be first wanted a credit if you broke your promise to her.

00:16:15 #288 And a doctor's life.

00:16:16 #289 And you did it because you know how weak you are after eight o'clock.

00:16:20 #290 the public demands that the...

00:16:21 #291 You wanted her to have a happy, contented holiday.

00:16:24 #292 I certainly did.

00:16:25 #293 Well, that's the reason you are not going out tonight.

00:16:28 #294 Oh, I'm not going out.

00:16:30 #295 Not as long as I'm here to prevent it.

00:16:32 #296 An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

00:16:35 #297 Well, in that case, Mother, you win

00:16:37 #298 with a couple of pounds to spare.

00:16:39 #299 Richard.

00:16:40 #300 Ha.

00:16:42 #301 I dare say you'll think I'm a very foolish old woman.

00:16:46 #302 Oh, no, Mother. No, no, no. Not old.

00:16:48 #303 a little foolish perhaps but certainly not all.

00:16:50 #304 Thank you.

00:16:52 #305 I bought you a present today. You bought something? For me?

00:16:57 #306 Well, the idea. Well, what was it? Yes.

00:17:00 #307 Well, is it animal, vegetable or mineral?

00:17:03 #308 Just a little reminder.

00:17:05 #309 It'll make a wonderful companion piece to old Madeline.

00:17:09 #310 Baby feet.

00:17:11 #311 Baby's footsteps on the stairs.

00:17:16 #312 I hear they are not...

00:17:22 #313 Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, oh!

00:17:24 #314 Oh, ma!

00:17:28 #315 Yes, Richard, that's my secret ambition.

00:17:32 #316 To hear the pitter-patter of the defeat.

00:17:35 #317 Oh, ma!

00:17:36 #318 Oh, Richard.

00:17:39 #319 Richard, you are now independently successful,

00:17:41 #320 and there's no further need of economy.

00:17:44 #321 And...

00:17:45 #322 Now, mother, don't flatter.

00:17:47 #323 Oh, Richard, I must do the pitter-patter of little thing.

00:17:52 #324 All right, Mother, I'll make a note of it.

00:17:54 #325 And tonight, I don't care what happens to Mrs. Cockburn Roach.

00:18:00 #326 Andrews?

00:18:03 #327 Ah!

00:18:04 #328 Oh, you see that, Mother, my voice is gone again.

00:18:06 #329 I've been talking all together too much.

00:18:07 #330 Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:18:09 #331 Is there something I can do?

00:18:10 #332 No, no, just let me stay in here quietly and alone

00:18:13 #333 and rest all by myself.

00:18:14 #334 Andrews, my dressing up.

00:18:16 #335 Yes, sir.

00:18:17 #336 Now there, Mother, doesn't that prove to you

00:18:18 #337 that I can be trusted?

00:18:19 #338 I do trust you, Richard.

00:18:21 #339 I do.

00:18:22 #340 Good night, Mother.

00:18:23 #341 And I'm going to look in on you every now and then to remind you of it.

00:18:26 #342 Yes. You look in, and I look out.

00:18:29 #343 Well, good night. Good night.

00:18:31 #344 Oh, and I have a surprise for you. A little later on.

00:18:33 #345 Oh, that's splendid. Good night, Mother.

00:18:36 #346 Well, good night. Tell me what it is.

00:18:38 #347 Well, you see, if you tell me, it won't be a surprise.

00:18:45 #348 Oh, I'm so glad you're in a good humor tonight.

00:18:48 #349 Oh, I'm so happy.

00:18:51 #350 Do-do-da-do, do-do-da-do, do-do-da-do, do-do-da-do, do-do-da-do.

00:19:02 #351 Well, could you close your mouth long enough

00:19:04 #352 to tell me what you're waiting for?

00:19:06 #353 Yes, sir. I didn't want to cut in front of Mrs. Maddell, sir.

00:19:10 #354 But there's a young lady waiting to see you. A young lady?

00:19:13 #355 Yes, sir. Does he mean?

00:19:15 #356 Yes, sir.

00:19:16 #357 What kind of young lady?

00:19:18 #358 Well, sir, I should say a very pleasant young lady.

00:19:21 #359 Blonde hair, blue eyes, uh, five foot, two, a hundred and six,

00:19:27 #360 And all around 34 with...

00:19:29 #361 That'll do.

00:19:30 #362 If I want to know anything more about the young lady,

00:19:33 #363 I'll find it out for myself.

00:19:35 #364 What is all around 34? What's she want?

00:19:38 #365 Uh, business, sir.

00:19:39 #366 She was sent by a mutual friend.

00:19:41 #367 You know as well as I do that it's long after business hours.

00:19:45 #368 And besides, my voice is going again. I won't.

00:19:46 #369 Won't see anybody.

00:19:48 #370 I know, Mr. Smith, but I couldn't come any other time.

00:19:51 #371 Can't you see me?

00:19:58 #372 Why, who said I couldn't see you?

00:20:02 #373 That will do, Andrews.

00:20:05 #374 Yes, sir, I thought it would say.

00:20:12 #375 Pardon me, but haven't I seen you somewhere?

00:20:15 #376 Well, that depends.

00:20:16 #377 I may not have been there.

00:20:17 #378 Oh, yeah.

00:20:18 #379 Oh, I see that one.

00:20:21 #380 But I know your face.

00:20:22 #381 I'm sure that we must have met.

00:20:24 #382 Well, don't tell me.

00:20:26 #383 I'll get you in just a minute.

00:20:27 #384 Yes.

00:20:28 #385 Won't you sit down? Thank you.

00:20:30 #386 Yes.

00:20:33 #387 Oh, I'll get you, yeah.

00:20:35 #388 I know your face.

00:20:38 #389 No.

00:20:39 #390 Why, it's Miss O'Dea. Yeah.

00:20:41 #391 Diane O'Dea, my favorite screen actress. Really? How not?

00:20:45 #392 I feel that we should be very, very good friends.

00:20:48 #393 I've seen so much of you. What?

00:20:50 #394 Oh, I mean, I've seen you so often.

00:20:53 #395 Oh.

00:20:55 #396 I'm afraid you're making fun of me.

00:20:57 #397 Not at all.

00:20:59 #398 Diane O'Dea.

00:21:01 #399 Well, what can I do for you, Miss O'Dea? Andrew's the man.

00:21:06 #400 He said something about a mutual friend.

00:21:08 #401 Yes, your new secretary, Kitty Minter,

00:21:10 #402 advised me to come and see you.

00:21:12 #403 Oh, you're a friend of Miss Minter's? Yes.

00:21:14 #404 Oh, well.

00:21:16 #405 And, oh, Mr. Smith, I think you're a perfectly wonderful man.

00:21:20 #406 Really?

00:21:22 #407 I mean, in your business.

00:21:24 #408 Everyone's talking about the wonderful speech you made

00:21:26 #409 in the Randall murder case.

00:21:27 #410 Oh, they're talking about it.

00:21:28 #411 Oh, well, well.

00:21:30 #412 The one about lonely wives.

00:21:32 #413 Yes, it was very good.

00:21:35 #414 I came right from the heart.

00:21:36 #415 And that's why I came?

00:21:38 #416 Yes.

00:21:39 #417 Of course.

00:21:40 #418 Of course, you're a murder lawyer, aren't you?

00:21:41 #419 Yes.

00:21:42 #420 I specialize in murders.

00:21:45 #421 You haven't murdered anybody, have you?

00:21:47 #422 Well, no, not yet.

00:21:49 #423 That is, I have.

00:21:50 #424 Well, of course, I don't believe I could be very much

00:21:51 #425 assistance you see until after the crime was committed.

00:21:54 #426 Oh.

00:21:55 #427 I only thought on account of your feeling for lonely wives.

00:21:59 #428 Yes.

00:22:00 #429 You might get me a divorce from my husband.

00:22:03 #430 a husband.

00:22:06 #431 Yes.

00:22:07 #432 That's different.

00:22:12 #433 Well, as a matter of fact, Miss O'Dea,

00:22:14 #434 I thoroughly and strongly disapprove of divorce.

00:22:17 #435 My specialty is murders.

00:22:20 #436 Oh, but this would be such a little one.

00:22:22 #437 No.

00:22:24 #438 Just a nice, quiet, sweet little divorce.

00:22:27 #439 You do not realize that modern civilization

00:22:29 #440 is founded on the unity, those eyes,

00:22:39 #441 I don't suppose you mean that.

00:22:41 #442 Mean what, Mr. Smith?

00:22:43 #443 That, uh, that come and get me expression in them.

00:22:46 #444 Why, I don't know what you're talking about.

00:22:48 #445 What a pity.

00:22:51 #446 You know I can hardly believe that you're married.

00:22:55 #447 Well, I'm not very much.

00:22:57 #448 That's why I want the divorce.

00:22:59 #449 Your husband is giving you trouble?

00:23:01 #450 He's not giving me anything.

00:23:03 #451 He's an actor.

00:23:05 #452 A bad actor?

00:23:06 #453 Not exactly.

00:23:08 #454 He's really quite good on a stage.

00:23:10 #455 Oh, what an alibi to get out every night.

00:23:13 #456 Well, I don't mind Felix going out.

00:23:15 #457 The trouble is that he doesn't come in.

00:23:17 #458 You mean to say that he leaves you all alone all night? Every night?

00:23:21 #459 Well, no, not every night.

00:23:23 #460 And I can't stand the uncertainty.

00:23:26 #461 I'd be so much happier if he'd always come home

00:23:28 #462 when he's through at the theater.

00:23:30 #463 Or if I could depend on his staying out.

00:23:37 #464 You all little woman.

00:23:39 #465 I'll see what I can do.

00:23:41 #466 No.

00:23:42 #467 Do you like dancing?

00:23:43 #468 Oh, I love it.

00:23:44 #469 You love it?

00:23:54 #470 But wouldn't we be rather crowded dancing in here?

00:23:57 #471 Well, uh, oh, that's not a bad idea.

00:24:01 #472 Why couldn't we adjourn to the Whoopi Club?

00:24:03 #473 No.

00:24:04 #474 You know, you and I and Jesse James

00:24:06 #475 were just made for each other.

00:24:08 #476 Oh, I couldn't.

00:24:09 #477 My husband's terribly jealous.

00:24:11 #478 He is.

00:24:13 #479 And yet he leaves you alone and lonely.

00:24:15 #480 Oh, well, that's just like a man.

00:24:17 #481 Do you know, Miss O'Dea, your friend, Miss Mint and I,

00:24:20 #482 we have a little extra business that we're going to transact.

00:24:23 #483 And we're going to conference at the Aster at 10 o'clock.

00:24:25 #484 Why couldn't we all get together and have a little supper?

00:24:28 #485 But wouldn't you be embarrassed with two girls?

00:24:31 #486 Two.

00:24:31 #487 And me feeling positively oriental.

00:24:34 #488 Oh.

00:24:35 #489 But I came to you for a divorce, not a party.

00:24:38 #490 Well, of course, Miss O'Dea, if you cannot consider yourself

00:24:40 #491 a party of the first part, what is it, Andrew?

00:24:42 #492 The front door bell, sir.

00:24:44 #493 Well, see who it is.

00:24:45 #494 You might be interested to know, sir, that Mrs. Mantle is coming down the back stairs.

00:24:49 #495 Oh, she might not understand our business relations.

00:24:53 #496 Oh, well, I'll go.

00:24:54 #497 But, uh, that way.

00:24:56 #498 A little more difficult, but much safer.

00:24:58 #499 Oh.

00:25:03 #500 And you won't forget 10 at the Axta, and we'll discuss your divorce case.

00:25:07 #501 You don't think I'll be doing wrong?

00:25:08 #502 Oh, time will tell.

00:25:10 #503 Time will tell.

00:25:12 #504 Just take a seat, sir.

00:25:13 #505 I'll call him.

00:25:20 #506 Gentlemen, to see you, sir.

00:27:07 #545 Frown.

00:27:12 #547 Well, how do you grief?

00:27:23 #550 Anger.

00:27:25 #551 Very good.

00:27:26 #552 I feel like a perfect fool.

00:27:27 #553 Very good.

00:27:30 #554 You make this rather snappy, won't you?

00:27:31 #555 I have some very heavy thinking to do before 10 o'clock.

00:27:35 #556 Have you a mother-in-law? No.

00:27:38 #557 My wife is an orphan.

00:27:39 #558 Oh, lucky boy.

00:27:41 #559 Not that I want to say anything against my mother-in-law.

00:27:43 #560 You're a very sweet old lady and very, very fond of me.

00:27:46 #561 Only she works too hard at it.

00:27:48 #562 Oh, tries to run you out of your own home, I suppose.

00:27:50 #563 No, tries to keep me in it.

00:27:52 #564 Tonight, for instance, I have a date at 10 with a lady.

00:27:56 #565 With two ladies. Two ladies?

00:27:58 #566 What for?

00:27:59 #567 Well, I don't know just what for.

00:28:01 #568 Of course I have an idea, but I don't know.

00:28:03 #569 One of them is married.

00:28:05 #570 A husband must be a sap.

00:28:06 #571 Oh, Mitty, are you decent?

00:28:08 #572 Hi, where you been?

00:28:10 #573 Oh, say, did you go to see Smith?

00:28:12 #574 Hmm, I went, I saw, and I made a date to meet him tonight.

00:28:18 #575 Hey, that guy must be blooming all over the place.

00:28:21 #576 He made a date with me for tonight, too.

00:28:23 #577 Yeah, I know all about it.

00:28:25 #578 That's why I agreed to go.

00:28:27 #579 Oh, yeah? Which one of us were you trying to protect?

00:28:30 #580 Mitty, that was the only way I could get him to take my case.

00:28:33 #581 Oh, I see.

00:28:35 #582 Maybe that was the only way I could get him to take my case.

00:28:38 #583 Oh, that's all right, darling.

00:28:40 #584 And I'll give you every break in the world. I know.

00:28:42 #585 Say, you better go over to your apartment and get dressed,

00:28:44 #586 hadn't you?

00:28:45 #587 Oh, I only hope I get there before Felix does.

00:28:47 #588 Oh, why worry about zero?

00:28:50 #589 You're going to get a divorce from him, aren't you?

00:28:52 #590 Yeah, but I don't want him to divorce me.

00:28:54 #591 Oh.

00:28:55 #592 Bye.

00:28:57 #593 Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da. Pardon me.

00:29:02 #594 Have you an extra pair of glasses?

00:29:04 #595 I should have somewhere.

00:29:05 #596 No, come to think of it, I broke mine.

00:29:07 #597 Here, take these.

00:29:09 #598 Thanks.

00:29:15 #599 Well?

00:29:17 #600 How about it?

00:29:21 #601 Well, I'll.

00:29:23 #602 Why, I'll?

00:29:26 #603 Well, I'll be a son of a gun.

00:29:29 #604 Richard Smith?

00:29:31 #605 And Richard Smith?

00:29:32 #606 Why, we could be the Smith brothers.

00:29:34 #607 Oh, boy, you could fool anybody.

00:29:36 #608 Why, of course I could.

00:29:37 #609 I bet I could fool your own mother.

00:29:38 #610 Yes, sir.

00:29:40 #611 Fool my mother.

00:29:42 #612 My boy Hepin has sent you to me.

00:29:44 #613 You want my permission to give this impersonation of me in public?

00:29:46 #614 That's the reason I'm here.

00:29:48 #615 Well, you stay here tonight in my place.

00:29:50 #616 And if you can fool my mother-in-law and the servants

00:29:52 #617 until I get back, I'll give you that permission. It's a bet.

00:29:56 #618 You're on and I'm off.

00:29:57 #619 Cough, cough, cough.

00:29:59 #620 You seem to have a frog in your throat.

00:30:00 #621 At least it doesn't. Fine. I could use that. Good.

00:30:03 #622 I'll give them to you.

00:30:07 #623 This is my room.

00:30:11 #624 And this is my wife's room.

00:30:12 #625 Your wife?

00:30:13 #626 She isn't here, is she?

00:30:14 #627 Well, do you think I'd go away and leave you here,

00:30:16 #628 if she were?

00:30:18 #629 She's in the mountains.

00:30:21 #630 Now this is a dressing room and bath

00:30:23 #631 connecting the two rooms.

00:30:25 #632 Oh, they connect.

00:30:27 #633 Sure, we speak.

00:30:30 #634 Where does mother sleep?

00:30:31 #635 Mother.

00:30:33 #636 She never sleeps.

00:30:44 #637 Now my mother-in-law may say something

00:30:46 #638 about having a surprise for you.

00:30:48 #639 Well, that's all right.

00:30:49 #640 I'll tell you, wait until morning. Thank you, pardon me.

00:30:59 #641 Do you ring, sir?

00:31:00 #642 No, no, uh, uh, uh, Sonny, I did not.

00:31:56 #660 You don't miss a trick.

00:31:58 #661 You must have been out before.

00:31:59 #662 Now you all set?

00:32:00 #663 Well, not quite. I think you better turn down some of the lights.

00:32:05 #664 I don't want to take any chances with Mother-in-law.

00:32:09 #665 There you are. Now the house is yours.

00:33:19 #677 Oh, here you are.

00:33:20 #678 You know, I've had such a start.

00:33:22 #679 I can't hear the fat door slam.

00:33:24 #680 Yes.

00:33:25 #681 My caller just left.

00:33:26 #682 Oh.

00:33:27 #683 Well, now we can continue our little session. I'm sorry, Mother Noor.

00:33:30 #684 You'll have to excuse me. I'm very busy.

00:33:32 #685 But where are you going?

00:33:32 #686 Well, I'm going to bed.

00:33:34 #687 But you mustn't.

00:33:35 #688 I mustn't go to bed?

00:33:36 #689 before you get your little surprise. I'm sorry, Mother,

00:33:38 #690 no, you have to keep it until the morning.

00:33:39 #691 Oh, Richard, you're so stupid.

00:33:42 #692 Madeline, your wife is home again.

00:33:49 #693 My wife?

00:33:58 #694 Well, he wasn't.

00:33:58 #695 Maybe he's in his room.

00:34:00 #696 Hello.

00:34:10 #697 Hey, dear, aren't you surprised?

00:34:12 #698 Oh, I'm paralyzed.

00:34:13 #699 Oh, you can see how devoutly he is, dear.

00:34:17 #700 But he hasn't even kissed you yet.

00:34:18 #701 Yes.

00:34:19 #702 Where is that great big homecoming kiss

00:34:21 #703 you've been writing me to expect?

00:34:22 #704 The great big homecoming kiss? Mm-hmm.

00:34:24 #705 The one I was writing you about?

00:34:26 #706 Oh, well, I'm saving it.

00:34:28 #707 Oh, you silly, impulsive goon.

00:34:30 #708 No, I mean I'm saving it until my cold gets better. Your cold?

00:34:34 #709 Have you a cold, sweetheart?

00:34:36 #710 Oh, it's frightful.

00:34:37 #711 I wouldn't dare kiss you, besides if anyone saw us.

00:34:40 #712 Heroes, leave the room.

00:34:45 #713 Leave the room. No.

00:34:46 #714 Don't anyone dare to leave this room.

00:34:48 #715 And I wouldn't play so closely, dear.

00:34:50 #716 No, really, in the condition I'm in, it's dangerous.

00:34:53 #717 Fiddlesticks, I'm not afraid.

00:34:55 #718 Well, that's because you have no idea what's ahead of us.

00:34:57 #719 Yes. Has something gone wrong? Oh.

00:34:59 #720 Dickie, you're keeping something from me.

00:35:01 #721 Mother, turn up the lights and work, please. No, no, no.

00:35:03 #722 Don't dare to turn up those lights.

00:35:04 #723 Dickie, what is the matter?

00:35:05 #724 Because I mean, I mean, my eyes.

00:35:08 #725 All swollen with the cold.

00:35:09 #726 Andrews, get me a stimulant.

00:35:12 #727 Are you in serious, couple dear?

00:35:14 #728 Oh, it's probably fatal.

00:35:16 #729 Oh, if I had any idea that you were coming home,

00:35:18 #730 I wouldn't have been here. What? No.

00:35:20 #731 I mean, in the condition I'm in.

00:35:21 #732 Oh, Dickie.

00:35:22 #733 There's just one thing to be done.

00:35:24 #734 I've got to go.

00:35:26 #735 Go where?

00:35:28 #736 Out. Downtown.

00:35:30 #737 Downtown now? Tonight?

00:35:32 #738 Oh, I should have gone ten minutes ago.

00:35:34 #739 Important engagement with the hotel-aster.

00:35:36 #740 Well, if I know my precious husband the way I think I do, he'll telephone and cancel that engagement.

00:35:40 #741 Telephone? Who?

00:35:42 #742 I mean, is there a telephone? Of course.

00:35:44 #743 Of course you can.

00:35:46 #744 The hotel-aster on the telephone.

00:35:48 #745 Wait, what do you mean? Any telephone can be done around here? I'll do it myself.

00:35:50 #746 Oh, well, maybe I'll wait. I'll wait until you get ready to go to, until we both get ready.

00:35:56 #747 Well, maybe before that.

00:35:57 #748 Oh, I knew you would. You know, I'm simply dying to get comfortable in my own little bed again

00:36:02 #749 and have a nice, long talk with you, honey.

00:36:04 #750 Oh, there's nothing I'd like better than to sit on the edge of the bed and listen to you, but...

00:36:07 #751 Oh, how thoughtless of me. After your long trip, dear, you must be tired.

00:36:11 #752 Oh, I'm not a bit tired, really. Why, the two months in the mountains have done me a world of good.

00:36:15 #753 Do your teleponing, Richard.

00:36:18 #754 Well, Madeline gets out of your traveling pose and does something more comfortable.

00:36:21 #755 Yes, it won't take you but a moment.

00:36:22 #756 And, Dickie, I bought a new lace knighty yesterday that's positively indecent.

00:36:27 #757 Where do you see it?

00:36:29 #758 Where are you going?

00:36:42 #759 Oh, I don't know. Oh, I was going down to see if the front door was locked.

00:36:45 #760 You know Andrew's all wishlocks.

00:36:47 #761 Oh, well, I thought tonight he might have forgotten it.

00:36:49 #762 Richard's man, after all you promised Madeline, are you planning to desert her?

00:36:54 #763 Desert her? Why?

00:36:55 #764 Well, no.

00:36:57 #765 Her first evening home in two months, and you...

00:37:01 #766 Richard, have you no human feelings at all?

00:37:05 #767 That's just the trouble.

00:37:07 #768 I'm too human.

00:37:09 #769 A lovely devoted wife like Madeline.

00:37:12 #770 Surely she's entitled to some consideration.

00:37:15 #771 Well, he's a brother elk.

00:37:17 #772 What's that?

00:37:17 #773 What?

00:37:19 #774 A mother you don't understand.

00:37:20 #775 You see, this sudden return, it's been an awful shock,

00:37:22 #776 an awful shock to my whole system.

00:37:23 #777 My throat, my voice.

00:37:24 #778 The throat voice, oh God.

00:37:26 #779 She doesn't want you to sing to her.

00:37:29 #780 But she wants more than anything else in the world.

00:37:31 #781 It's a nice, long talk with you.

00:37:34 #782 Oh, if I could depend on that.

00:37:36 #783 Now, Richard, don't delay your telephoning another minute.

00:37:39 #784 What telephone? Oh, telephoning.

00:37:40 #785 What was the number?

00:37:43 #786 Good night, Madam, dear.

00:37:45 #787 So glad to have you home again.

00:37:47 #788 Good night, Mother Pleasantry.

00:37:52 #789 Hello, hotel-aster.

00:37:54 #790 Good night, Richard, dear.

00:38:00 #791 Huh? Yes. Good night.

00:38:06 #792 Hello, Hotel Aster?

00:38:08 #793 Will you get Mr. Richard Smith?

00:38:10 #794 Page, Mr. Richard Smith, yes.

00:38:12 #795 Tell him to telephone his home immediately.

00:38:14 #796 Important. Oh, it's vital.

00:38:17 #797 Mr. Richard Smith, thank you.

00:38:19 #798 Tired, sweetheart?

00:38:35 #799 Tired? I never was so tired in all my...

00:38:44 #800 Please come out of that doorway, will you?

00:38:51 #801 Have you been a good boy since I've been away?

00:38:52 #802 Oh, I'm in more danger right now

00:38:54 #803 than I have been in the past two months.

00:38:57 #804 Please, please go away and let me die or go crazy or something.

00:39:00 #805 Go away?

00:39:02 #806 Dicky, you're not well.

00:39:03 #807 Don't you suppose I know it?

00:39:04 #808 Haven't I been telling you that for the past half hour in those very words?

00:39:08 #809 That telephone didn't ring, did it?

00:39:09 #810 No, dear.

00:39:10 #811 I'm afraid you've been doing too much brain work.

00:39:13 #812 That's it. It's my brain. It's on fire. It's fever. I can't think. You can't think?

00:39:17 #813 No.

00:39:17 #814 Yes. The only things I can think of are the things that I shouldn't.

00:39:23 #815 That wasn't the telephone bell then, was it?

00:39:24 #816 Dicky, you're trembling all over.

00:39:26 #817 I'm liable to go to pieces any moment.

00:39:28 #818 The telephone isn't out of order, is it?

00:39:30 #819 Oh, Father, the old phone. Thank goodness I've arrived

00:39:32 #820 in time to prevent another nervous breakdown

00:39:34 #821 like you had last year.

00:39:35 #822 That's it. Nervous combustion.

00:39:37 #823 I've been trying to keep it from you.

00:39:39 #824 Stand for an ambulance quick.

00:39:41 #825 Ambulance? Nothing. I'm going to take care of you myself.

00:39:43 #826 Now, come on.

00:39:44 #827 Now, the first thing to do is to put you to bed.

00:39:47 #828 That is the last thing.

00:39:49 #829 Now, don't argue, dear.

00:39:53 #830 Now, I'm going to give you a nice old-fashioned alcohol rubdown.

00:39:56 #831 I should have alcohol rubbed down.

00:39:57 #832 No, no, no, no, no.

00:39:58 #833 I couldn't stand it.

00:40:00 #834 Oh, come on. Now, come on.

00:40:02 #835 Now, Madeline knows best.

00:40:04 #836 Now put your head right down here.

00:40:06 #837 There, put your little head right down here. No, no, no. I'm afraid. You're afraid?

00:40:09 #838 Yes, I'm afraid.

00:40:10 #839 You might catch my cold.

00:40:11 #840 Oh, bother you, old co.

00:40:13 #841 Now, Madeline knows how to take care of her, Dickie Bird. Come on.

00:40:16 #842 Put your little head right down there. Come on.

00:40:18 #843 My poor, nervous Dickie Boy.

00:40:22 #844 Now, before anything else, sweetheart,

00:40:24 #845 that great big homecoming kiss. Never. Oh, yes. Oh, now come on. Now come on. Now come

00:40:32 #846 on. There. Too late. Did you get your call? No, I guess my mother-in-law must have gone

00:41:30 #847 to bed. Oh, you're married too. Very happily. That's the reason I so thoroughly disapprove

00:41:36 #848 of divorce especially in this state what do you mean well you see in order to

00:41:40 #849 procure a divorce in this state you must have evidence but kind of evidence well

00:41:45 #850 evidence of a very serious nature how serious well you see you must produce

00:41:53 #851 evidence that your husband has been there has been that is to say you must

00:41:59 #852 explain that you have discovered him and not only him but I don't know what

00:42:08 #853 What do you mean, Mr. Smith?

00:42:10 #854 You have to get the goods on him.

00:42:12 #855 In other words, you have to prove that he has a...

00:42:17 #856 Where do you come from, Miss O'Dea?

00:42:20 #857 I came from South Dakota.

00:42:22 #858 Oh, I don't blame you.

00:42:27 #859 Well, out in South Dakota, don't they ever, ever...

00:42:32 #860 Ever what, Mr. Smith?

00:42:34 #861 No, none of us going to South Dakota.

00:42:36 #862 Made us as well stay here.

00:42:40 #863 Did you ever see a bedroom farce?

00:42:43 #864 Oh, you mean the kind where the wrong man hides under the bed?

00:42:46 #865 At a girl.

00:42:46 #866 And now we're getting on.

00:42:49 #867 Only in this case, you see, the wrong man must not only be...

00:42:53 #868 but...

00:42:56 #869 But what, Mr. Smith?

00:42:57 #870 Oh, really, really.

00:42:58 #871 There's no use of our talking until we can find an interpreter.

00:43:02 #872 Or until we get to know each other better.

00:43:04 #873 Oh, here's your friend.

00:43:05 #874 Well, well, here you are.

00:43:07 #875 I've been looking everywhere for you.

00:43:09 #876 Just in time.

00:43:10 #877 Won't you sit down?

00:43:11 #878 Oh, not Miss Morse.

00:43:13 #879 Didn't you say something about the Whoopie Club?

00:43:16 #880 Diane's never been up on the roof there, have you, darling?

00:43:20 #881 Oh, my husband never takes me anyplace.

00:43:22 #882 Oh, you poor girl.

00:43:24 #883 Well, Mrs. Smith is going to fix all that, aren't you?

00:43:28 #884 Fix the roof?

00:43:29 #885 Oh, oh, oh. Oh, my goodness.

00:43:30 #886 What a man.

00:43:32 #887 Well, we'll start on the roof.

00:43:34 #888 And finish in the gutter.

00:43:35 #889 Oh, Mr. Smith.

00:43:49 #890 Andrews.

00:43:50 #891 Hey, pardon me.

00:43:52 #892 You're paralyzed.

00:43:53 #893 Not paralyzed. Can't you see me moving?

00:43:55 #894 Where are you going?

00:43:56 #895 Give this to the tailor. He's waiting.

00:43:58 #896 Ah!

00:44:13 #897 Good morning, dear.

00:44:14 #898 I hope I'm not disturbing you.

00:44:16 #899 Not at all, Mother.

00:44:17 #900 Oh, I'm just dying to have a little talk with you.

00:44:20 #901 How did Dickie like his little surprise?

00:44:22 #902 Oh, Mother!

00:44:24 #903 If you only knew...

00:44:26 #904 Oh, then you really have something to tell me.

00:44:28 #905 I'll tell the world I have.

00:44:30 #906 Oh, never mind the world. Tell me.

00:44:33 #907 Was Dickie glad to have you home again?

00:44:35 #908 Glad he was beside himself.

00:44:38 #909 Oh, Mother, this is going to be the turning point

00:44:40 #910 in Dickie's married life.

00:44:41 #911 Oh, lovely.

00:44:42 #912 Wait till I tell you everything.

00:44:44 #913 Oh, I'm so happy.

00:44:46 #914 I'm just going to congratulate Dickie.

00:44:48 #915 No, I wouldn't do that.

00:44:49 #916 Don't disturb him.

00:44:51 #917 He's napping.

00:44:52 #918 Shall I have your breakfast served here in the room?

00:44:54 #919 No.

00:44:55 #920 I'm going for a walk before breakfast this morning.

00:44:58 #921 I feel as if the world is mine.

00:45:01 #922 At last I have what I've been hoping for.

00:45:03 #923 You have?

00:45:05 #924 How does he?

00:45:05 #925 A hold on my husband that he'll never be able to break.

00:45:08 #926 Oh, you dumb!

00:45:11 #927 P-tuh-tuh!

00:45:16 #928 P-tuh-tuh-tuh!

00:45:28 #929 Very idea at this time of the morning, dumb.

00:45:32 #930 When Mr. Smith wiggins, he'll attend to you, my man.

00:45:36 #931 My man, indeed.

00:45:38 #932 In my man, I'm nobody's man but my own.

00:45:46 #933 Good morning, Mr. Smith.

00:45:47 #934 What's good about it?

00:45:50 #935 Hey, didn't you sleep well, sir?

00:45:51 #936 I didn't sleep one wink the whole night long.

00:45:54 #937 Who'd have locked my door?

00:45:55 #938 It wasn't a devil, sir.

00:45:57 #939 It was Mrs. Mantle.

00:45:58 #940 Oh, what time is it?

00:46:00 #941 9 o'clock.

00:46:02 #942 I've got to get out of here.

00:46:04 #943 Where's my coat?

00:46:05 #944 Well, I just gave it to the tailor, sir.

00:46:07 #945 He brought back your other dressing gown.

00:46:09 #946 A dressing gown won't help me.

00:46:10 #947 I want my coat.

00:46:12 #948 You don't seem to be yourself this morning, sir.

00:46:14 #949 I'm not.

00:46:15 #950 Perhaps you need something to eat.

00:46:17 #951 Won't you have your breakfast now, sir?

00:46:19 #952 Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:46:21 #953 anything to keep you quiet.

00:46:22 #954 Where's the dining room?

00:46:26 #955 What, sir?

00:46:27 #956 I said where is it?

00:46:28 #957 In the dining room?

00:46:30 #958 Yeah, yes sir.

00:46:32 #959 Breakfast in the dining room.

00:46:33 #960 It's not being served in the cold cellar.

00:46:35 #961 Well, I don't want to go in the dining room.

00:46:37 #962 I want you to get me a cup of coffee

00:46:39 #963 and some cracked ice and some white rock.

00:46:41 #964 And don't stand there gaping at me like that. Put that thing down.

00:46:43 #965 Hurry.

00:46:44 #966 Yes.

00:46:47 #967 Wait. Yes.

00:46:50 #968 Don't rush out on me like that before I finish talking to you.

00:46:53 #969 Where is Mrs. Smith and Mrs. The other one, my mother-in-law?

00:46:58 #970 You mean Mrs. Mantle?

00:47:00 #971 Yes.

00:47:01 #972 She's going upstairs.

00:47:03 #973 And if you please say.

00:47:04 #974 No, I don't please.

00:47:08 #976 Yes, yes.

00:50:24 #1010 Will you please make up your mind, please?

00:50:41 #1011 Why, Andrews, that's the nicest thing

00:50:44 #1012 you've ever done for me.

00:50:45 #1013 You've guessed exactly what I needed.

00:50:47 #1014 Yes, I didn't guess it, sir.

00:50:50 #1015 You told me to bring it in a motion patient tone.

00:50:54 #1016 You know what?

00:50:55 #1017 In a most imp...

00:50:56 #1018 Asian tone.

00:50:58 #1019 Well then it must have been mental telepathy.

00:51:00 #1020 You know the effect of mind over matter.

00:51:02 #1021 Or else you've been dreaming.

00:51:04 #1022 Yes sir, I'm beginning to think so sir.

00:51:08 #1023 Did they...

00:51:09 #1024 Didn't you find your common brush?

00:51:12 #1025 What common brush?

00:51:14 #1026 Why?

00:51:15 #1027 The one you were looking for.

00:51:17 #1028 Why don't you suppose I know where to find my own common brush?

00:51:20 #1029 Andrews?

00:51:21 #1030 You're drunk.

00:51:23 #1031 A little drunk and I thought so.

00:51:26 #1032 And you dare to admit it.

00:51:28 #1033 You dare to stand there staggering at me at nine o'clock in the morning.

00:51:32 #1034 Well, sir, you see, I've been having a little trouble.

00:51:36 #1035 You've been having a little liquid lightning.

00:51:38 #1036 Only one flash.

00:51:40 #1037 I mean nip, sir.

00:51:41 #1038 Well, quit nipping.

00:51:42 #1039 Do you think you're strong enough to get me some more of this white rock?

00:51:45 #1040 Yes, sir.

00:51:47 #1041 Though I wish you'd have your breakfast, sir.

00:51:50 #1042 I don't see why you don't want to go in the dining room.

00:51:53 #1043 Heh. That's a nice dining room.

00:51:57 #1044 Who said I didn't want to go into the dining room?

00:51:59 #1045 Of course it's a nice dining room. It's my dining room.

00:52:01 #1046 I'd like to see anybody try to keep me out of it.

00:52:03 #1047 Heh. Heh. Heh.

00:52:05 #1048 I'm glad to hear you say that, sir.

00:52:08 #1049 Heh. You do know where it is, don't you?

00:52:11 #1050 Why, certainly. If nobody's moved it. See who that is.

00:52:18 #1051 Yes, yes.

00:52:23 #1052 He must have had a worse night than I expected.

00:52:27 #1053 Much worse.

00:52:43 #1054 Excuse me, sir, but it...

00:52:44 #1055 I don't care who it is. Who the devil drank my coffee?

00:52:51 #1056 Well, you did, sir, before you went in the dining room.

00:52:55 #1057 I wanted to comb my hair.

00:52:57 #1058 But you didn't comb your hair.

00:52:58 #1059 I didn't, didn't I? Are you losing your mind?

00:53:03 #1060 Yes, sir, I... I'm beginning to think so, sir.

00:53:06 #1061 Well, you snap out of it and get me some more coffee.

00:53:08 #1062 Yes, sir, I was just going to, sir.

00:53:11 #1063 When you told me to answer the front doorbell.

00:53:14 #1064 I told you to answer the...

00:53:16 #1065 Well, you're hearing things as well as seeing them.

00:53:19 #1066 Well, I did hear the front doorbell, sir.

00:53:22 #1067 Because there's proof of that.

00:53:24 #1068 I opened it for two young ladies who wanted to see you.

00:53:27 #1069 Two young ladies?

00:53:29 #1070 Yes, sir.

00:53:30 #1071 They're dressed just alike.

00:53:32 #1072 They must be twins.

00:53:33 #1073 Well, I haven't any twins.

00:53:35 #1074 You tell them to come back late this afternoon.

00:53:37 #1075 He ought to be here by then.

00:53:39 #1076 He he oh, oh he well whenever I say he I always mean I haven't you noticed that

00:53:48 #1077 Not yes, sir when you keep it in mind and bring that coffee to my room and some white rock yes

00:53:56 #1078 Nobody knows what a night he must have had

00:54:00 #1079 Nobody

00:54:05 #1080 Andrews don't move so fast. You know you break the speed limit. Oh

00:54:10 #1081 sir you

00:54:12 #1082 You've come back

00:54:14 #1083 You you do want me to

00:54:16 #1084 Go to the front door before I bring your white rock and coffee. Don't you I don't want any more coffee stupid I?

00:54:24 #1085 Told you to answer that front door five minutes ago. What are you been doing walking backwards?

00:54:29 #1086 Yes, sir

00:54:31 #1087 Perhaps I have without without knowing it. You know you've got to cut out this early morning drinking

00:54:37 #1088 Yes, I will

00:54:39 #1089 Indeed I will you'd better

00:54:41 #1090 I'll try and pull myself together, sir.

00:54:44 #1091 And I'll tell the young ladies to call back later.

00:54:47 #1092 What young ladies?

00:54:50 #1093 The twins, sir.

00:54:52 #1094 You said you couldn't see them.

00:54:54 #1095 Andrews, this is getting serious.

00:54:57 #1096 You never said one word to me about twins.

00:55:00 #1097 Didn't I?

00:55:05 #1098 You certainly did not.

00:55:07 #1099 Where are these ladies?

00:55:12 #1100 In the reception room, sir.

00:55:14 #1101 The twins, sir.

00:55:21 #1102 He bird glad I found you you are well, I'm glad somebody's glad

00:55:33 #1103 Where's the rest of you Andrew said you were twins there were two of us sir? I swear there were two of her. Oh, that's nothing

00:55:40 #1104 I've been saying for

00:55:42 #1105 for taxicabs for front doors

00:55:46 #1106 for my old butlers and

00:55:48 #1107 for you little dickie bird. Please

00:55:54 #1108 Don't go Andrews wait

00:55:56 #1109 What do you mean by coming here in a so damn?

00:55:58 #1110 When you told me last night that you have to go home alone,

00:56:01 #1111 didn't I put you in a taxi cab?

00:56:02 #1112 Didn't I get the taxi cab right of your vest?

00:56:04 #1113 Didn't I?

00:56:05 #1114 Well, yes, but...

00:56:06 #1115 And that's the old taxi cab's all parked.

00:56:09 #1116 And it took him ages and ages to get it together again.

00:56:14 #1117 And anyway, I have no money,

00:56:16 #1118 so I'm gonna bring me here.

00:56:18 #1119 He's waiting outside.

00:56:20 #1120 Oh, money?

00:56:22 #1121 Oh, that's all you...

00:56:23 #1122 Oh, well, that's simple.

00:56:24 #1123 That's simple.

00:56:25 #1124 Oh, my, Joe, if I have an ascent left myself.

00:56:27 #1125 Andrews, I have an ascent.

00:56:30 #1126 That's one thing I'm sure of.

00:56:31 #1127 Would you go out in the kitchen and borrow some from the cook?

00:56:33 #1128 She ought to have some.

00:56:34 #1129 She was paid yesterday.

00:56:35 #1130 Yes.

00:56:36 #1131 I hope you know where that kitchen is.

00:56:37 #1132 Yes, sir.

00:56:38 #1133 Well, hurry.

00:56:40 #1134 Yes, sir.

00:56:41 #1135 Oh, Dickie, I'm so relieved.

00:56:43 #1136 Whee!

00:56:44 #1137 Diane, please.

00:56:46 #1138 Oh, I'll have a plate. Now you chase me.

00:56:47 #1139 And please, keep quiet.

00:56:49 #1140 Oh, I'm too happy to be quiet.

00:56:51 #1141 You come down here.

00:56:51 #1142 Now I want to.

00:56:52 #1143 Come down here.

00:56:53 #1144 You come right down.

00:56:55 #1145 I want to come down this minute. No. Come on.

00:56:59 #1146 All right.

00:57:05 #1147 What is this, please?

00:57:06 #1148 A hangover or a fresh start?

00:57:08 #1149 Oh, Dickie Bird, don't be harsh with me.

00:57:11 #1150 Anybody think you're my husband?

00:57:13 #1151 I am always harsh in the morning.

00:57:15 #1152 My loose moments end with breakfast.

00:57:17 #1153 Anything that you have to say to me today

00:57:19 #1154 will come under the head of new business.

00:57:20 #1155 Well, I don't want any new business.

00:57:22 #1156 Old was good enough for me.

00:57:24 #1157 Oh.

00:57:26 #1158 If you please sir, the cook hasn't a nickel.

00:57:29 #1159 Nobody has a nickel.

00:57:31 #1160 I don't want a nickel.

00:57:32 #1161 What good is a nickel?

00:57:33 #1162 Here, you go outside, go outside and find out exactly how

00:57:36 #1163 much the taxi cab bill is.

00:57:38 #1164 Hurry, hurry.

00:57:40 #1165 Oh, what am I going to do? Use that.

00:57:44 #1166 Oui, monsieur. Yes, monsieur.

00:57:45 #1167 Would you like to earn $20? Oui, monsieur.

00:57:47 #1168 Will you get this young lady up to the guest room quickly? Oui, monsieur.

00:57:50 #1169 Don't let anybody see her. No, monsieur.

00:57:51 #1170 She came to see me.

00:57:52 #1171 Now, on business.

00:57:53 #1172 But Mrs. Mantell might not understand.

00:57:55 #1173 No, monsieur, but I understand. Yes. Come, madam. We go.

00:57:58 #1174 No, no, no, I don't want to go upstairs.

00:58:00 #1175 I don't want to go upstairs.

00:58:02 #1176 Upstairs or I spank.

00:58:04 #1177 There you go, remind me of my husband again.

00:58:07 #1178 Oh, poor feelings.

00:58:09 #1179 What are you thinking if I can see me now?

00:58:12 #1180 Madame, we go come on.

00:58:14 #1181 I don't want to go up there.

00:58:17 #1182 That's all right.

00:58:19 #1183 Listen, the bill is $50, and I'm going to get it,

00:58:22 #1184 or I'm going to take it out of somebody's hide.

00:58:23 #1185 Understand?

00:58:24 #1186 Yeah, yeah.

00:58:26 #1187 You'll get your hide.

00:58:28 #1188 I mean your money.

00:58:31 #1189 Here, madame, you will be safe here.

00:58:33 #1190 Negligent, huh?

00:58:42 #1191 The bill is 50 hides, sir.

00:58:45 #1192 I mean dollars.

00:58:46 #1193 We'll see if you can pry it out of Mrs. Mantle, will you?

00:58:49 #1194 Wouldn't it be better if I went to the bank, sir?

00:58:52 #1195 That's a good idea. Go ahead. Yes. You go to the bank. Yes, sir.

00:58:56 #1196 And on your way to the bank,

00:58:57 #1197 will something got spilled on my coat last night.

00:58:59 #1198 Drop in and leave it at the tailor's for me, will you?

00:59:04 #1199 Here.

00:59:06 #1200 Your coat?

00:59:07 #1201 Yes, my coat.

00:59:09 #1202 What's the matter with it? It won't bite you.

00:59:12 #1203 But I...

00:59:13 #1204 I...

00:59:14 #1205 I gave it to the tailor.

00:59:16 #1206 About half hour ago, sir.

00:59:18 #1207 You gave him my coat?

00:59:21 #1208 Yes, sir.

00:59:22 #1209 I gave you your coat.

00:59:24 #1210 And I'm going back!

00:59:29 #1211 Come, come, come. Pull yourself together, old man.

00:59:32 #1212 I can't, sir.

00:59:33 #1213 I... I seem to have lost all control.

00:59:37 #1214 I'd be getting to see them.

00:59:39 #1215 There. There.

00:59:41 #1216 I'm afraid they'll get me.

00:59:44 #1217 I've got to go somewhere.

00:59:46 #1218 I've got to do something.

00:59:48 #1219 I can't stand it. I can't stand it. I can't stand it.

00:59:53 #1220 Die-Eye!

01:00:08 #1221 Well, I can't go home with Felix in a dress like this this time of the morning, can I?

01:00:20 #1222 No.

01:00:21 #1223 Say, you go home and get me a dress.

01:00:24 #1224 All right, all right. I'll be back in a jiffy.

01:00:27 #1225 Fine.

01:00:31 #1226 Bitches.

01:00:32 #1227 Oh, hello, mother. How are you?

01:00:34 #1228 I'm perfectly well.

01:00:36 #1229 Well, that's well.

01:00:38 #1230 Where, you see?

01:00:40 #1231 Just getting ready to go to work.

01:00:42 #1232 Work? Oh, I never dreamed you wanted to go to work this morning after what happened last night.

01:00:47 #1233 Why, what do you know about last night?

01:00:49 #1234 Not very much, but I can guess, count I.

01:00:51 #1235 Oh, yes, yes, you can guess. You're some little guesser.

01:00:54 #1236 Richard, I'm afraid you're going to be angry with me.

01:00:57 #1237 But I meant it all for the best.

01:01:00 #1238 You met what for the best?

01:01:01 #1239 When I locked you in last night.

01:01:03 #1240 You locked me in?

01:01:05 #1241 You were acting a bit strangely.

01:01:07 #1242 You seemed nervous and excited.

01:01:09 #1243 So I decided to give you a dose of prevention.

01:01:12 #1244 So after you went to bed, I locked all the doors

01:01:15 #1245 and took the keys upstairs with me.

01:01:18 #1246 You locked all the doors after I went to bed?

01:01:21 #1247 Oh, well then I couldn't have gotten out.

01:01:23 #1248 I couldn't have gotten out even if I wanted to.

01:01:25 #1249 Of course you couldn't, Richard.

01:01:26 #1250 And I was in there all night.

01:01:29 #1251 You're...

01:01:32 #1252 Are you ill again?

01:01:33 #1253 No, Mother. No, I'm better.

01:01:34 #1254 All... I'm much better.

01:01:36 #1255 Oh, what a joke.

01:01:38 #1256 Locked in cold storage all night, Mother.

01:01:40 #1257 You are simply priceless.

01:01:43 #1258 Who are you waiting for?

01:01:44 #1259 Nothing, Mother. Nothing. Nothing.

01:01:46 #1260 In fact, less than nothing.

01:01:47 #1261 I'm simply waving at myself.

01:01:49 #1262 Oh, you're absurd, Richard.

01:01:51 #1263 I am, Mother. I'm more than absurd.

01:01:53 #1264 I'm positively hilarious.

01:01:56 #1265 Oh, now.

01:01:57 #1266 Now I understand what was the matter with poor old Andrews.

01:02:00 #1267 Oh, he must have been seeing things with a vengeance.

01:02:04 #1268 Andrews condition is no laughing.

01:02:06 #1269 I can't help it, Father.

01:02:07 #1270 I can't help it.

01:02:08 #1271 You'd laugh too if you knew what I knew.

01:02:10 #1272 No, no, no, no, you wouldn't.

01:02:12 #1273 Why not?

01:02:13 #1274 Don't you think I can appreciate a joke?

01:02:15 #1275 Go on, tell me.

01:02:16 #1276 No, it's a secret.

01:02:18 #1277 And if I told you, it'd be no joke.

01:02:20 #1278 Oh, well, don't catalyze me, Richard.

01:02:23 #1279 It's about you.

01:02:24 #1280 Rather.

01:02:26 #1281 Is there someone else?

01:02:28 #1282 Oh, decidedly someone else.

01:02:31 #1283 And then, is there another someone mixed up in a two?

01:02:34 #1284 No, no, not exactly.

01:02:36 #1285 Well, well, not yet anyway.

01:02:38 #1286 Not yet? Oh, I knew it.

01:02:42 #1287 The secret is about you and someone else.

01:02:45 #1288 And then another someone mixed up in it a little later.

01:02:49 #1289 Oh, you've had a letter from Madeline.

01:02:51 #1290 Oh, I had a letter.

01:02:53 #1291 Oh, you dear ridiculous fellow.

01:02:56 #1292 I don't blame you for being hilarious.

01:02:59 #1293 I'm a bit hilarious, but...

01:03:02 #1294 Mother, what is it that you think you know?

01:03:07 #1295 I don't think any longer. I'm sure.

01:03:19 #1296 I'm sure.

01:03:23 #1297 I don't think any longer, I'm sure.

01:03:27 #1298 Ha.

01:03:28 #1299 Pigeon-patter, pigeon-patter.

01:03:31 #1300 Pigeon-patter, pigeon-patter, pigeon-patter.

01:03:34 #1301 Oh, did this all heal them?

01:03:40 #1302 No.

01:03:44 #1303 If you're doing that for me, you can stop.

01:03:48 #1304 I want my coat.

01:03:49 #1305 All right, child.

01:03:55 #1306 How can you think of coats at a time like this?

01:03:58 #1307 Baby coatties, perhaps, and little booties.

01:04:03 #1308 She's crazy.

01:04:14 #1309 Has she gone crazy too?

01:04:16 #1310 There's something to matter with her.

01:04:18 #1311 Give us some air. Give us some air.

01:04:20 #1312 Will I take her out to it?

01:04:22 #1313 Or bring it into her?

01:04:24 #1314 Don't talk like a fool.

01:04:26 #1315 Get her something to bring her back to herself.

01:04:28 #1316 Yes, sir.

01:04:30 #1317 Now you're talking, sir.

01:04:32 #1318 You have a good rest, sir?

01:04:39 #1319 Say, I'll never rest again until I get even with that.

01:04:42 #1320 Say, how would you like to pick up $50?

01:04:55 #1321 Oh, Monsieur.

01:04:56 #1322 All I want you to do is to kiss me the next time you see me and Mrs. Mantle alone together.

01:05:02 #1323 And for what is you when Madame Montel see?

01:05:05 #1324 Well, it's a practical joke, you see, to get even with somebody for laughing at me.

01:05:10 #1325 Oh, and will Madame Montel laugh?

01:05:13 #1326 Will she laugh? Say, I'll laugh myself.

01:05:16 #1327 Oh, well, for $50.

01:05:20 #1328 Uh-huh.

01:05:21 #1329 But suppose I lose my position.

01:05:23 #1330 Oh, don't worry.

01:05:24 #1331 You lose this one.

01:05:25 #1332 I'll get you a better one.

01:05:26 #1333 Now, is it a go?

01:05:27 #1334 Oh, no, Monsieur.

01:05:29 #1335 It is a quiche.

01:05:31 #1336 The next time I see you with Madame Mantelle, huh?

01:05:34 #1337 You won't forget.

01:05:35 #1338 Oh, ah, could I?

01:05:37 #1339 Oh, excuse me, sir.

01:05:49 #1340 But I forgot to give you the money.

01:05:51 #1341 Money?

01:05:52 #1342 What money?

01:05:55 #1343 Why?

01:05:56 #1344 The money you totally get for the young lady upstairs.

01:06:00 #1345 Don't you remember, sir?

01:06:01 #1346 Oh, take it. Take it.

01:06:03 #1347 Don't say that I haven't been at the bank, sir.

01:06:06 #1348 Don't tell me it isn't real money.

01:06:08 #1349 I can't stand any more of it.

01:06:10 #1350 All right, all right, all right.

01:06:11 #1351 It'll relieve your mind. I'll take it.

01:06:13 #1352 I've earned it.

01:06:15 #1353 What'll I do with this, sir?

01:06:16 #1354 Drink it yourself.

01:06:17 #1355 Give me that money. Not on your life.

01:06:40 #1356 What do you mean by staying out all night?

01:06:42 #1357 Shut up. You talk like a mother-in-law.

01:06:43 #1358 You realize that I was locked up in that room all night long?

01:06:45 #1359 room all night long. Well I'm sorry Mrs. Mantle locked you up but what's so funny

01:06:50 #1360 about that? Why don't you think it's funny? Funny? Say what kind of a man are you?

01:06:54 #1361 Locked up all alone? You don't know. You don't know. I know you've given me a

01:06:59 #1362 marvelous joke on my mother-law. I can't tell her about it but I'll laugh every

01:07:03 #1363 time I think of it. Thanks again. You can go now. Not yet. What's that?

01:07:10 #1364 I'm not going to leave this house until I get my big laugh.

01:07:13 #1365 It'll cost me $50 and I want to be here to enjoy it.

01:07:16 #1366 Ha.

01:07:18 #1367 Wait a minute, wait a minute. What are you talking about?

01:07:24 #1368 Richard.

01:07:25 #1369 Mother, why don't you go upstairs and take a nap?

01:07:30 #1370 A good long nap. You ought to be laid out somewhere.

01:07:33 #1371 Layed out?

01:07:34 #1372 Oh, my God.

01:07:36 #1373 Oh, my word. Stop this. Stop it. Stop it.

01:07:41 #1374 What do you think I am? A lollipop?

01:07:45 #1375 A shameless creature.

01:07:47 #1376 Who ordered this?

01:07:48 #1377 What is the joke? Why she do not laugh?

01:07:52 #1378 Why she do not laugh?

01:07:53 #1379 You can figure that out while you're packing your trunk.

01:07:56 #1380 I knew she was French, but I made allowances for that.

01:07:59 #1381 Why kiss Mr. Smith under my very nose?

01:08:01 #1382 Pardon me, Mother, under my very nose.

01:08:03 #1383 You told me to.

01:08:04 #1384 I never did.

01:08:06 #1385 Yes, you lie. You promised me $50.

01:08:09 #1386 $50? What are you talking about? $50 is too much for any woman.

01:08:12 #1387 What is this, a badger game?

01:08:13 #1388 You don't stay in this house another minute.

01:08:15 #1389 Not a minute.

01:08:16 #1390 No?

01:08:16 #1391 Then he has to give me another job.

01:08:18 #1392 You promise?

01:08:19 #1393 I promise.

01:08:20 #1394 I never promised.

01:08:21 #1395 I never.

01:08:22 #1396 Oh, I have a very good idea who did.

01:08:26 #1397 You go on.

01:08:27 #1398 You get out of here.

01:08:28 #1399 Get out.

01:08:36 #1400 I resent that.

01:08:37 #1401 Richard, how did she say that?

01:08:39 #1402 Oh, she sent you her best regards.

01:08:42 #1403 Richard's man?

01:08:43 #1404 Yes?

01:08:44 #1405 Are you quite sure you didn't ask her to kiss you?

01:08:46 #1406 Mother, I don't have to ask to be kissed.

01:08:48 #1407 What?

01:08:49 #1408 I have my own dear sweet little wife, yes.

01:08:53 #1409 Oh, and she'd understand if she were home.

01:08:55 #1410 You can tell her when she comes in.

01:08:57 #1411 She'll be home in a minute.

01:08:58 #1412 Home? I don't believe it.

01:09:00 #1413 Well, you just wait here and see.

01:09:02 #1414 Come on, you've got to get out. My wife is coming.

01:09:09 #1415 Wait a minute. In a minute. The minute will be too late.

01:09:12 #1416 Now, don't get excited, Mother. Just leave everything to me.

01:09:14 #1417 Wait, wait. I can't go out and sleep with this.

01:09:18 #1418 Well, I go out with mine every day.

01:09:19 #1419 But if you're so fussy, there. Outside.

01:09:22 #1420 Thinking.

01:09:27 #1421 Oh, darling, you have come home.

01:09:31 #1422 Well, well, well.

01:09:33 #1423 Dicky boy!

01:09:35 #1424 Didn't you expect me?

01:09:36 #1425 No, yes, of course, of course, but not so soon.

01:09:39 #1426 Or if you only had any idea of how lonely I was then.

01:09:42 #1427 Oh, Dicky.

01:09:46 #1428 Is this gentleman a friend of yours?

01:09:47 #1429 Why, no, he's no gentleman.

01:09:50 #1430 He's no friend.

01:09:51 #1431 It's Mr. Zero.

01:09:52 #1432 Mr. Zero, yes.

01:09:53 #1433 My wife, Mrs. Smith.

01:09:54 #1434 And Mrs. Mantle, my wife's mother.

01:09:57 #1435 I'm delighted.

01:09:58 #1436 Mr. Zero is the famous vaudeville artist.

01:10:01 #1437 Aw, I've heard of you.

01:10:03 #1438 Oh, thank you.

01:10:04 #1439 He has done me the honor to want to add me to his list of impersonations.

01:10:08 #1440 Oh, no doubt he does it to perfection.

01:10:10 #1441 Oh, how wonderful.

01:10:12 #1442 Breakfast is ready.

01:10:13 #1443 If you want it, come and get it.

01:10:16 #1444 Oh, won't you have breakfast with us?

01:10:18 #1445 Why, delighted if I'm not intruding.

01:10:20 #1446 Oh, no.

01:10:22 #1447 My husband's friends are my friends.

01:10:24 #1448 Oh, yes, indeed.

01:10:26 #1449 But at a time like this, I understand

01:10:28 #1450 you've just returned home from a vacation.

01:10:30 #1451 Oh, that's perfectly all right.

01:10:34 #1452 You've no idea, dear, how glad I am to see you.

01:10:37 #1453 Why didn't you let me know you were coming?

01:10:39 #1454 I wanted to surprise you.

01:10:40 #1455 You did.

01:10:41 #1456 Oh, I shall never forget the look on your face

01:10:44 #1457 when I walked in last night.

01:10:46 #1458 Last night?

01:10:54 #1459 Come, Mr. Ziddle.

01:11:02 #1460 Coming, darling?

01:11:03 #1461 Last night?

01:11:08 #1462 Dickie, darling.

01:11:08 #1463 Dickie, what's wrong? Why, what happened?

01:11:12 #1464 Dickie, come on, dear. What is it?

01:11:15 #1465 Oh, my poor darling, you're ruined. I mean, our home is ruined.

01:11:19 #1466 Why, my poor Richard, and you sing so well this morning when you first woke up.

01:11:25 #1467 Oh, hold me. I'm going to faint again. I know I'm going to faint.

01:11:28 #1468 Oh, what you need is another old-fashioned rubdown like I gave you last night.

01:11:34 #1469 Oh, I want to die. I want to die. Please, please.

01:11:36 #1470 He can fool yourself. Let me help you to the couch.

01:11:39 #1471 No, no, I'm... I can't believe it.

01:11:40 #1472 Now come on here. Come on.

01:11:42 #1473 Oh, men, you're a darling.

01:11:44 #1474 Now you hurry and get into this and let's get out of here.

01:11:46 #1475 Oh, here you can have this, sweetie.

01:11:49 #1476 I never want to see it again.

01:11:51 #1477 Oh, merci beaucoup, madame. No.

01:11:53 #1478 Now come on, come on.

01:11:54 #1479 Come on, like a good boy.

01:11:55 #1480 There. Now, everything's all right.

01:11:58 #1481 All right. Oh, my poor Madeline.

01:12:01 #1482 No, you're happy Madeline, dear.

01:12:03 #1483 Now tell me just what's troubling you, darling.

01:12:06 #1484 Oh, you don't know what you're asking.

01:12:08 #1485 Is it so serious?

01:12:10 #1486 You know, I could see last night the moment I saw you that you want yourself.

01:12:14 #1487 You could see that?

01:12:16 #1488 Yes, you were different.

01:12:18 #1489 Oh, awfully nice, darling. Oh, awfully, awfully nice.

01:12:21 #1490 But different.

01:12:23 #1491 Well, how different?

01:12:25 #1492 Well, I've always known you were impulsive.

01:12:27 #1493 But last night, oh, in spite of your cold, the way you kissed me...

01:12:33 #1494 Oh.

01:12:35 #1495 You feel so badly, sweetheart?

01:12:37 #1496 Just dying. That's all. Just dying.

01:12:39 #1497 Oh, my poor, nervous, dicky boy.

01:12:42 #1498 Perhaps I kept you awake too late.

01:12:44 #1499 Oh.

01:12:45 #1500 But then I had so much to tell you.

01:12:47 #1501 Yes. Yes, I suppose you did.

01:12:49 #1502 You suppose? Don't you remember?

01:12:51 #1503 No. Yeah, oh, the joy of having you back there.

01:12:55 #1504 They had just a little bit hazy. That's all.

01:12:57 #1505 Maybe I put too much whiskey in your hot drink.

01:13:00 #1506 Did you give me a hot drink last night?

01:13:02 #1507 Of course, darling.

01:13:03 #1508 after I had you all comfortable and safely covered up.

01:13:06 #1509 Covered up? Oh, I'm just losing my mind, that's all.

01:13:10 #1510 Madeline, go ahead.

01:13:12 #1511 Tell me, tell me what happened.

01:13:14 #1512 What, what, what did I do?

01:13:16 #1513 Oh, Dickie, what didn't you do?

01:13:18 #1514 Oh.

01:13:20 #1515 You know, I never realized before that you were so versatile.

01:13:24 #1516 Versatile?

01:13:25 #1517 Yes, those imitations you gave.

01:13:27 #1518 Imitations of what?

01:13:28 #1519 Of all sorts of things.

01:13:30 #1520 And the jokes you played.

01:13:31 #1521 Why, Dickie, you are positively skittish.

01:13:34 #1522 Skittish?

01:13:36 #1523 Oh, my.

01:13:38 #1524 Go on, Madeline.

01:13:39 #1525 Tell me everything.

01:13:40 #1526 Why, Dickie, you must know as well as I do.

01:13:44 #1527 What was that lovely little Swiss lullaby you sang?

01:13:49 #1528 Swiss lullaby.

01:13:50 #1529 Yes, the one you yodeled to me.

01:13:53 #1530 Yodeled?

01:13:55 #1531 Oh, my word, I yodeled.

01:13:58 #1532 Oh, you must yodel again for me often.

01:14:00 #1533 Now that I know you do it so well.

01:14:04 #1534 This is the end.

01:14:05 #1535 What nonsense, darling.

01:14:06 #1536 Well, I fixed you up last night and I'll do it again.

01:14:09 #1537 I'll make sure Bracers only your Madeline knows how,

01:14:11 #1538 and then we'll go for a nice long drive in the country.

01:14:14 #1539 You won't try to work today, will you?

01:14:17 #1540 Work?

01:14:18 #1541 After the vaudeville show I gave last night?

01:14:21 #1542 Oh, no. Now you must rest.

01:14:23 #1543 And then we'll don't forget

01:14:24 #1544 all the lovely things we plan to do today.

01:14:31 #1545 Oh dear, dear, dear.

01:14:34 #1546 Last night, last night, last night.

01:14:38 #1547 Tom, you yodeled to her, did you?

01:14:47 #1548 Well, she liked it, didn't she?

01:14:48 #1549 I'll say she did.

01:14:49 #1550 She wants me to yodel again and often, and I can't.

01:14:52 #1551 Oh, you fiend!

01:14:53 #1552 You, you, you howl!

01:14:55 #1553 Well, I liked that.

01:14:57 #1554 After all the trouble I took not to give you away.

01:14:59 #1555 Why, she never for a moment suspected the difference.

01:15:02 #1556 What?

01:15:03 #1557 You didn't tell her you weren't home last night.

01:15:05 #1558 That's a fine question.

01:15:06 #1559 Well, then everything is all right.

01:15:08 #1560 All right!

01:15:09 #1561 All right. I knew just how to handle the situation. I behaved exactly as you would have.

01:15:14 #1562 You knew how to handle the situation. You knew how to handle the situation by being skittish, by telling her stories at midnight, just for a start.

01:15:22 #1563 Well, I have to do something to pass the time you asked me to impersonate you.

01:15:26 #1564 No excuse for you kissing her, Zero.

01:15:28 #1565 But I was you.

01:15:29 #1566 But I'm her husband.

01:15:31 #1567 Well, so was I.

01:15:32 #1568 Oh!

01:15:34 #1569 Put something into my hand.

01:15:36 #1570 You want to know exactly what happened last night.

01:15:42 #1571 Well, what do you think?

01:15:44 #1572 I can't think. I'm going mad.

01:15:46 #1573 Ha, ha, ha.

01:15:48 #1574 I'm arguing about how fair.

01:15:50 #1575 Vicky!

01:15:51 #1576 Yes, dear?

01:15:53 #1577 Shut up. She means me.

01:15:55 #1578 How do you know?

01:15:56 #1579 For that I murder you.

01:15:57 #1580 Yeah, they drink this.

01:15:58 #1581 It's what made you feel so good last night.
