All language subtitles for Julia Misbehaves (1948) Xvid 1cd - Greer Garson, Elizabeth Taylor [DDR]

[Horns honking]

[Horn honks]

[Tires screech]

[Brakes squeal]

[Door chime rings]

Benjy! Benjy,
you must come.

What is it?

It's Julia. She's going
to do away with herself.

Good heavens!

[Door chime rings]

Man: Now, then,
let them worry.

We've got
all our stuff.

It's that actress
on the first floor.

Short life
and a merry one.

[Footsteps]

Where is she?

In there.

She said she'd
stick her head
in the gas oven.

Break the door down.

She doesn't answer
anymore.

Oh! That's
horrible!

Maybe we're
too late!

Open up!
Open up, here!

[Rattling doorknob
and banging on door]

Can't you let me die
in peace?

Julia, it's me... benjy.
Don't do anything desperate.

What have I got
to live for?

They took away
my furniture,

And the apartment's
full of men waving bills,
and I'm stony broke!

You've everything
to live for: Youth, beauty.

No good, benjy.
Nothing's any good anymore,

Not unless somebody
pays off those men.

Good idea, guv'nor.
Why don't you pay us?

Well, didn't you
hear me, benjy?

Benjy: Oh, so that's
what you're up to.

Well, go ahead
and kill yourself.

Meanwhile,
I'll kill Louise.

Louise: Honestly, benjy,
I thought she meant it.

Benjy: I'm going
back to the shop,
and I do mean it!

Look. Wait a minute, benjy.
Wait a minute.

It's just
a matter of business.

I've got a whole heap of
valuable family heirlooms
in here,

And I'm gonna let you have
the whole lot for a song.

I don't want 'em.

Now, look,
I'm not gonna let you pay off
my creditors with your money,

I wouldn't dream of it.

Benjy:
I never said I would.

No, you didn't say so, darling,
but I know you.

You're such a good, sweet,
wonderful, warm-hearted...

Oh, no, you don't!

You tricked me
once before like that!

Well, I always paid you back,
didn't I?

Oh, come on, benjy.
Please.

Oh...

All right.

Well, how much?

Rent... £18, 10.

Snow drop dairy...
£3, 6.

Benjy: Julia,
let me have a look
at the stuff.

Well, you can't.
I'm in the nude.

Well, get out
of the nude.

They want £35.
That's a lot of money.

The grandfather clock alone
is worth £100.

[Clock chimes,
gears rattle and grind]

What's that
infernal row?

It's, uh,
it's a coffee grinder...

An antique coffee grinder.

Coffee grinder?
I don't want that.

What make of
a clock is it?

It's, uh...
It's a... Windstock.

All right,
I'll give you £35.

Oh, benjy...
£40 or nothing.

I need a little something
for myself.

No.

Have a heart,
guv'nor.

All right, £37.
£2 for you.

£40.

Man:
Be a sport, guv'nor,
and go another pound.

£37!

Julia: 40!

£37 and not a penny more!

£42 and not
a penny less.

Benjy: Hey, you said 40,
and that's all you'll get!

Sold!

Yes, sold!

Well, good.

All right, all right,
come to my shop,
and I'll pay you off.

Hooray.

[Door opens]

Oh, benjy,
you always were
an old darling.

Now, I'll get dressed,
and we'll all go out
and celebrate.

Celebrate what?

Well,
all my bills are paid,
and I've still got £5.

[Playing soft dinner music]

[Jazz playing over jukebox]

All right, Tony,
and to top it off,

We'll have a bottle
of veuve clicquot.

Champagne?

Don't worry.
The party's on me.

You're hopeless,
Julia.

What's going to
become of you?

Oh, something
always pops.

Here's a few more bills
that came for you.

Only a few days ago,
Tony seabrook invited her
on his houseboat.

Not Tony seabrook
the polo player?

The same. 6' 4"
and how he handles himself.

Why didn't you go?

Well, they practically
promised me a speaking part
in the new Cochran show.

I wasn't going to
let anything interfere...

What is it?

What is it?

Nothing. Excuse me.

Oh, tell us, Julia.

It's my baby.

Baby?

My little Susan.

Well,
what happened?

She's going to
be married.

Your daughter?

"The honorable
roderick minden."

My word.

Who's this
Mr. William packett?

That's my husband.

Husband?
Your husband?

Oh, I was just a kid
at the time.

We got married
all of a sudden.

It was in the war.

When we came back,
we... we just couldn't
make it work.

The baby...

Oh, shut up, Louise.
What'd you want me
to do,

Take her in
the chorus with me?

His family had
all the money.

They could do everything
for her.

Too bad to have
to give up your child.

You're telling me.

But I'll bet
it'll be a lovely wedding.

Oh, for the love
of Mike.

Leave her alone.

No, I'm all right,
benjy.

It's just a bit of a shock,
that's all.

You're going to
this wedding.

Walk across France,
I suppose, and turn up in rags.

Why, the only decent things
I've got are this suit
and that skiing outfit.

Never mind that.

You want to see
your little Susan,
don't you?

I'd give my life
to see her.

And so you shall,
my dear.

I'm going to
dress you up

To give these swells
a treat.

Benjy...

Here, waiter!

Bring me
a telegram form.

You're going to
send them a cable.

Oh, benjy...

Oh...

You think
she'll like me?

She's your daughter,
isn't she?

She'll like you.

Oh, benjy.

Here you are.

Merci beaucoup,
madame.

There's a cablegram
for Mr. packett.

Very well, Daisy.
Put it there.

Mr. packett's
out on the lawn.

I'll see
he gets it later.

[Whack]

[Whack]

[Whack]

This mania for
hitting little balls
all over the place

Is quite beyond me.

I suppose
you'd say that fishing
is much more exciting.

Ah, but fishing
is different.

When you fish,
you sit and rest and relax
with time to think.

What have you got
when you're through with this?

Callouses on your hands
and muscles in
the wrong places.

Daddy, darling,
why don't you go
in the house

And get yourself
a lemonade.

That's a very sound idea.

Ahh...

Father: If it's muscles
you want, why don't you
take up wrestling?

Good morning, ritchie.

Good morning, sir.

Look here, ritchie.

When I engaged you
to paint these murals,

You had
definite instruction.

You've made some changes.

Ritchie: For the better,
I hope, sir.

What do you think
of this one, sir,

Agamemnon beating psyche
at table tennis?

Ah, yeah.
I think that ought to
get over all right,

But, uh,
the thinker here.

Didn't you use to have
a polo game there
or something?

You've altered
that a bit,
haven't you?

Yes, I did,
but I got to thinking...

If a chap were
really thinking,
what would he think about?

Yes. I follow
your line of thought.

Now, king Arthur here,

Is that a board meeting
he's holding?

Well, you can't see
what he's holding.
This is poker.

A bit red in the face,
isn't he?

That's what you call
a royal flush.

Sorry I brought it up.

Oh, no.
The king brought it up.

That's why our friend
in the foreground was
reduced to his underwear.

Two pairs, I presume.

Huh. Oh, you're
a little too quick
for me today, sir.

I have my moments.

Ah, lady godiva.
Very amusing.

The boys
don't seem to know
the race is over.

William.

Yes, dear?

A cable for you.

Oh, thank you.

You like the murals
any better now,
mother?

I've told you repeatedly
I didn't like them.

They're completely
out of keeping with
the rest of the house.

But you persist in...

Oh!

What's the matter?

Why, it's Susan.

Oh, no, dear.
It's lady godiva.

No! It's Susan!
Look for yourself.

Mother, it can't be.
It...

Well, upon my soul!

Must have been
a slip of the brush.

Well, you'll oblige me
by altering that face
at once.

I should think so.

Why, it's such bad taste.
It's absolutely disgusting.

I say, mother,
will you come
with me, please?

I want to speak
to you.

Susan, I want you, too,
in the drawing room,
please.

Yes, dad.

Very funny.

Oh. I thought your fiance
might like it.

Very funny indeed.

"Thanks for invitation
to wedding.

"I'm grateful,
happy, excited,

"And taking
boat train tomorrow.

Julia packett"!

Yeah.

Invitation?
I don't understand.

How did she get hold
of an invitation?

Well, I know
I didn't send her one,

And I don't suppose
you did, mother.

Now, this is no time
for joking, William.

I know, but somebody
sent it. Susan?

Why should I want
to have her here?

This is appalling.
Who could have
invited her?

I'll get the guest list.
I'm certain her name
isn't on it.

She's never bothered us
in all these years.

She even refused the money
we offered her.

I don't know what's
come over her now.

Well,
if you'd listened to me
in the first place,

This never
would have happened.

William: Oh, of course,
of course.

Now, this is
all your fault.

You should have arranged
for a divorce years ago,
but you didn't,

So now we must stop her.

Here's her address.
Cable her. Tell her.

Well,
I can't just write
"don't come."

What would you suggest?

I haven't any idea,
mother, what to suggest.

I mean, if, uh...

Unless I arrange to
meet her in Paris.

Well, what will you say?

I'll be perfectly Frank.
That's the only way.

After all, she left
the child with me

From the day
we agreed to part.

Now she has no right to
force herself on us now.

Certainly not.

I think I'll leave
immediately.

Yes. And, William...

Don't be seen in public
with her.

You might meet
some of our friends.

Mother, she's no longer
a 17-year-old chorus girl.

She won't turn up
in tights.

[Man whistles]

Beg your pardon.
Either one of you ladies
got some eau de cologne?

Oh, I've got some
smelling salts. Why?

It's ma.
She's gone blue.

Oh, let's have
a look.

Julia:
Get out of the way.

Do you want
to kill her?

Let the lady
take charge.

Get her hat off,
quickly.

[Lady moaning]

Careful, Freddy.
It's my new Katie.

Look,
it's pinned here,
can't you see?

She won't let us
loosen her stays.

Quite right, too.
Here, hold this.

This stomach wants
holding together,
not loosening.

You should
tighten them up,
if anything.

You can't.
Not without killing her.

I don't see how
she breathes as it is!

Here, have a good,
deep whiff of this.

Ahh...

You have wonderful
lung power.

Yes, indeed.

You should hear her sing
the last chord upside down.

Huh. Well...
Are you feeling
better now?

A little.

Come on.
Help me get her down
to my stateroom.

Oh, you'll be fit as
a fiddle in no time.

Now, believe me, darling,

Or believe me not...

I said to myself,
"greasepaint,"

The moment
I set eyes on you.

Yes, I thought
perhaps you did.

With manner correct
and every inch a lady,

I said to myself,
"greasepaint."

I'm never wrong.

Are you sure you're
feeling all right now?

Oh, fine, fine.

Good, good.

You know, this nice bunch
of sons you have...

What's the name
of the big one?

You mean Freddy.

Well, uh, maybe I better
go upstairs and tell them
you're all right.

They might worry.

Won't you have
a glass of champagne
before you go?

Thanks, no.

All I want
is fresh air.

Well, would you
believe it?

So you're Freddy, huh?

That's right.

You know, somehow
the name Freddy,

It doesn't quite
seem to suit you.

Well, the name's
really Alfredo ghenoccio,

After me ancestor who gave
the command performance

Before king James ii
at Hampton court.

Fancy that.

I suppose I ought
to be quite scared

Being out here
with a big, strong,
dangerous-looking man like you.

Oh, we're
a very famous family.

The 6 flying ghenoccios
have topped the bill
for over 200 years.

Really?
Were all the others
handsome, too?

Well, it's not so
much what they looked
as what they did.

In acrobatics,
you can say we changed
the whole picture.

But you kept the frame.

How's that again?

The frame, Freddy.
This. Whoo!

Oh...

The others arm's
stronger.

Ah ha. Well...

Ohh... Ha ha! Say...

I bet if you took me
in your arms,

You could just about
crush me to death.

It's the training
what does it.

Well...
You must be a riot
with the women.

Oh, we always
went pretty big
with the men, too.

It takes all sorts
to make an audience,
you know.

Oh, forget about
the audiences, Fred.

Here we are, blue seas,
romance in the air.

In fact, the only thing
that's missing is the moon.

I've got no use
for it meself.

Moonlight keeps people
out of the theater.
Nutters and such.

Oh, come off it, Fred.

What, you mean to say

You've never been
out in the moonlight
alone with a girl?

Listen, Julia,
if I ever went out with
a girl in the moonlight,

She'd have to be good.

Good?

Certainly.
Handspring, somersault,
trapeze work...

Something we could use
in the act.

Otherwise, it's just
a waste of time, see?

Oh, Freddy, can't you ever
forget about business?

Well, we got to find
somebody to take
ma's place someday.

Oh, is ma
in the act, too?

She don't fly.
She sings a song or two.

You know, in tights.

Between you and me
and the bedpost,
she's a bit past them.

Well, they do sort of
emphasize a bit, don't they?

You should see
the finale!

Ma's a princess,
see, imprisoned
in a high tower.

She's singing
"save me! Save me!"

Just as me and the boys
happen to be passing by.

What a coincidence.

So we form
a human ladder with
me at the bottom,

And we pass her down
from one to the next,
ever so gently,

Like she was
a bit of dresden China,

Singing all the time.

And then biff!

I tell you,
it knocks them cold!

Oh, it sounds
most romantic.

Ah, it's terrific.

Say, listen, Julia,

We're giving a special
benefit performance
in Paris tonight

Before we go
out on tour.

Why don't you come in?

Oh, Fred, I'd love to,
but I'm sorry, I can't.

I have an appointment.

But good luck anyhow.

Oh, thanks.
We'll be all right,
as long as ma gets well.

Oh, she'll be fit
as a fiddle.

I gave her
a bottle of champagne.

You did what?

Just one bottle.

She gave ma
a bottle of fizz!
Come on!

What's that?

Crikey! Two bottles!
We're ruined!

Now she won't stop
for a week!

Ma: Ha ha ha!

* save me... *

That's her!

* save me *

* won't somebody save me? *

* save me from
this horrible fate *

* woo! Help me!
Help me! *

Fred: Hey, ma!

* oh, won't somebody
help me... *

[Horn blows]

* before it's too late? *

Hee hee hee!

Bunny!

Bill, my dear fellow!

I'm glad to see you.
What are you doing
in Paris?

I've already
done it all.

I'm just on my way
to catch the train for
your neck of the woods.

Oh, wonderful.
I'll be there tomorrow.

And meanwhile,
mother will make you
very welcome.

Well, uh,
I'd rather planned
to stay at the hotel

Until the day
of the wedding.

It's a bit closer to
the gambling casino and...

And, uh, the ladies.

Well, why not?
There are only
two kinds of men:

Those who admit
they like women,
and liars.

Man: Pardon,
monsieur.

Yes?

The clerk
has said you are
Mr. packett?

I am.

I have a message
for you.

What is it?

It is
confidential.

Oh... Confidential.

Don't tell me
that you've come round
to my school of thinking.

Oh, nonsense.

Well, I've got
a train to catch.

I'll see you
in a few days, old boy.

Happy hunting, bunny.

Well, let's hear it.

You understand,
monsieur, to find you
was great trouble,

And I had
to take a taxi.

Ah, yes, yes,
of course.

Be a long walk,
wouldn't it?

Merci, monsieur.

Thank you.

Uh, where is the lady
who gave this to you?

Oh, monsieur,
it is not discreet.

A very simple question.

I cannot tell...
Unless...

Oh, yes.
There you are.

Oh, monsieur
is incorrigible.

The pretty lady
gave me this
at the stage door

Off the theater
de boulevard.

Theater?

Oh, nothing for you,
monsieur.

Just the vaudeville,
so-so.

Well, where is it?

Oh, I show you,
monsieur.

Uh, no.
Thank you, very much.

I think I can
find it myself.
Good night.

[Lively music playing]

[Drumroll]

[Cymbals crash]

[Applause]

Very good,
those acrobats.

I hate acrobats.

[Drumroll]

[Cymbals crash]

[Applause]

Julia: Help! Help!
Save me, somebody! Save me!

* save me *

* save me *

* won't somebody save me *

* save me from
this terrible fate? *

* help me *

* help me *

* won't somebody help me *

* before it's too late? *

[Aside]
Down you go now.

[Aside]
Not me, chum.

I won't do it.
I'm scared.

But you've seen this
before.

Not from up here
I haven't. It's too high.

* when you're
playing with fire *

* you've got to get burned *

Julia, aside:
Take your hands off.
Get them off.

* when you're
playing with fire *

* where I'm concerned *

Don't you dare.
I'm not going down there.

Think I'm crazy?

* holding me so closely
is a dangerous game *

* one little, two little,
3 little sparks *

Aah!

[Audience laughs]

* and then
there's a flame *

* and when there's a flame *

* that's only the start *

* once it's out of control *

* it finds your heart *

* but if you don't mind
getting burned *

* we can share the desire *

* but not... *

She could get hurt.

* ...Playing with fire *

* save me, oh, save me *

* the flame's burning
higher and higher *

* when you're playing
with fire *

* when you're
playing with fire *

* you're gonna get burned *

* and you're playing with fire
where I'm concerned *

* holding me so closely
is a dangerous game *

* you'll find yourself
all aflame *

* and lose your heart *

* but if you don't mind
getting burned *

* we can share the desire *

Oh, be careful!

* when we're playing,
playing with fire *

* save me, oh, save me,
won't somebody save me? *

* help me, oh, help me,
won't somebody help me? *

* we can share the desire *

* that love will inspire *

* when you're playing
with fire *

Look, boys,
I'm terribly sorry.

I really gummed up
the works, didn't I?

[Men in audience
yelling approval]

Man: Hey, come here!

Julia: What do you know?
How are you, chums?

How about a song
for the British Navy?

Right you are.
What'll you have?

Rule, britannia.

Man: British grenadier.

The maestro's got one.

He's got it.

[Orchestra playing]

* not so long ago *

* things looked pretty slow *

* in fact, the world seemed
barely up a tree, sir *

* so, young brown said
with a sigh, "toodle-oo,
cheerio, good-bye" *

* I'll take me dad's advice
and go to sea, sir *

* all his pals were sad
when he went away *

* but last week,
a letter arrived to say *

* "by gad, I'm glad
I listened to my old dad" *

* oh, what a difference
the Navy's made to me *

* everything you see
is different as can be *

* they decked me out
in a uniform *

* and it's a uniform
that takes the girls by storm *

* they say the admiral
is crazy over me *

* and so he ought to be *

* for he can plainly see *

* so though I owe a lot
to the Navy *

* it's nothing to what
the Navy owes to me *

* everything you see
is different as can be *

* they decked me out
in a uniform *

* and it's a uniform that takes
the girls by storm *

* they say the admiral
is crazy over me *

* and so he ought to be *

* for he can plainly see *

* so though I owe a lot
to the Navy *

* it's nothing to what
the Navy owes to me *

[Applause]

Freddy: Listen
to that applause!

Listen to
that applause!

Julia,
you were wonderful!

You were
sensational!

We never went over
this big before!

Oh, I've never had
so much fun in my life.

Then join us. We'll
leave your song in,
just like tonight.

Freddy,
do you mean it?

Why, sure.
How about it, boys?

Man:
You said it!

Oh, that would
be wonderful!
I'd love it.

What time is it?

It's 10 to 11:00.

Oh, my train.
Let me down.
I'll miss it.

Yes?

I'm looking for
the lady playing
with the acrobatic troupe...

The ghenoccios.

Have you met madame?

I most certainly have.

Dressing room number 5,
on the other side.

Ah. Thank you.

Huh. Well, i...

Bonsoir, monsieur.

I... I'm sorry.
I thought that you were...

I know.

Yeah. Ahem.

[Barking]

[Toots whistle,
blows horn]

Woman: Monsieur,
she loves you.

She only does that
with friends.

Au revoir.

[Blows horn,
toots whistle]

Oh...

I'd like to see
miss...

One moment, monsieur.

Thank you.

Madame,
you have a visitor.

An englishman.

Simply magnifique.

How opportune.

I look well tonight,
even if I do say so it myself.

Oh, madame,
he is so handsome.
A gentleman!

We shall see.

[Knock on door]

Impatient boy.
You shall stay here.

If I want to be alone
with him,

I'll drop
me powder puff...

Like this.

I understand.

Now you may show him in.

Entrez, monsieur.
Thank you.

How do you do,
mister...

Uh, packett.
William packett.

Uh, packett.

Yeah.

Sounds familiar.
Frightfully familiar.

Really?

Do we know each other?

I don't believe
we've ever met.

Naughty boy.

Came in just like that
without a proper introduction.

Well, I thought
that, uh... See...

Don't apologize.

You see, I thought...

I know what you mean.

It's not that.
It's just that i...

Oh! Me powder puff.

Huh? Oh. Allow me.

I'll put it right there.

Is it your first visit
to Paris?

Oh, no. I've been here
many times.

This city never
lets you down.

The air, the lights,
the wine.

There's, uh,
just one thing.

French women are
so incredibly stupid.

Well, thank you
for warning me.

You're not leaving?

It was all a mistake.
I was really looking
for somebody else.

So if you'll
excuse me...

Oh!

[Barking]

[Porter yelling in French]

Ah! Oh! We made it!

I wish we hadn't.

Oh, Freddy,
it was wonderful.

I'll never forget
this night.

And don't worry,
I'll send the tights
back in the morning.

Ah, but, Julia,
you don't have to
send them back.

We want you to
join the act.

You mean it?

Of course.
We all mean it.

Oh, that
would be heaven.

To be singing
every evening and...

Oh, Freddy,
I love you!

Oh!

But, Julia?

Yes, darling?

There's something
I want to ask you.

Will you be
Mrs. ghenoccio?

Will you marry me?
What?

Oh! Oh, dear.
Isn't this a bit too sudden?

I mean, aren't you
rather impetuous, Freddy?

Well, you said
you loved me.

Oh, darling boy.

You've made me
the happiest man
in the world!

What? I can't hear you!

You've made me
the happiest man
in the world!

[Train whistle blows]

Madame!

Hobson.
Well, how are you?

Oh, it's good
to see you.

And you, madame.

Thank you. How is...
How is everybody?

She's all you could
hope for... And more.

It's been
a long time.

Well, it hasn't been
so long for me, madame.

Two summers ago, Daisy and I,
the gainsborough theater.

You wore
a bright green costume.

I think the play was called
something about earth.

The show was
mud in your eye.

Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!

Hobson, we are now
on sacred ground.

Oh, yes, of course.

This way, madame.

How's Daisy?

Wonderful.
Thank you.

Mrs. William packett.

Who?

Well, my dear Julia.

This is
most unexpected.

Oh, the moment
the invitation arrived,

I turned to my banker,
and I said, "benjy," I said,

"Sell whatever stocks
and bonds are necessary.

I'm on me way to
the South of France."

But when we got
your cable, we
immediately arranged...

Oh, I know. I'm afraid
I'm days ahead of time,

But I was just dying
to see Susan.

Where is she?

Susan is in her room.

What I'm trying to say
is that when we got
your cable,

We arranged for William
to meet you in Paris.

Well,
that was very nice,

But I'm afraid
I was terribly busy there,

And somehow I missed him.

However, no harm done.

I'm here.

This is
most unfortunate.

What is?

There's been
a terrible mistake.

That's why we tried
to stop you.

Stop me?

You see, you were
never invited.

And we naturally felt
that you of all people

Wouldn't wish to intrude
at this particular time.

I see.

This should never
have happened.

I would like to see
my daughter.

I'm sorry, but I
must insist you don't.

It would be
very embarrassing
for Susan

And possibly distressing
for yourself.

Mrs. packett,
the last time we met,

You forced me
to give her up.

Forced you? Nonsense!

Why, you could have
taken Susan with you.

Could I? Where?

Well, wherever...

You know how
I had to live.

Theatrical lodgings
and a job in the chorus
when I could get it

And pawning my clothes
when I couldn't.

Trailing around the provinces
with a number two company.

Even you couldn't think
I'd do that to my child...

Not when her father
could do so much better
for her.

You made
your own choice.

I had no choice,
and you know it.

You left me nothing,

Not even the right
to visit Susan
now and again.

Would my seeing her
once or twice a year
have interfered so much?

There was
a very important
reason for that:

We wished Susan to be
brought up as a lady.

She was born one.

Possibly. But would
she have remained one

In your somewhat
bohemian circle?

Perhaps not.

But at least we could
have been together,

And I wish to heaven
we had.

I assure you that
Susan does not share
that wish.

All right, I know
nobody wants me here,
so I won't stay,

But she's still my daughter,
and she's getting married,

And I'm gonna see her.

15 minutes in all these years
is not too much to ask.

Yes?

Hello, Susan.

Are you from
the dressmaker's?

Ah...

Well, what is it,
please?

Susan, I'm your mother.

Oh.

I can't believe it.

Why, you're all grown up...

And beautiful.

Look, won't you...
Would you care
to sit down?

Thank you.

All grown up
and going to be married.

Oh, it's impossible.

The last time I saw you,
you were this size.

I bathed you in a basin
that was no bigger than a...

It was no...
No bigger than that.

Really.

I could hold you
in one hand,
only I didn't.

I was afraid
you'd fall and break.

Oh, thank heaven
it didn't leave a scar.

First time you were
in your highchair,

You fell out
and cut yourself,
remember?

No. I'm...
I'm afraid I don't.

And I got you a funny
little fuzzy white dog
with no tail at all.

Of course
you wouldn't remember.
You were too little.

The first thing
I remember was my...

My party dress
with the pink sash.

Oh. That would be
after I went away.

There isn't anything
for us to remember together.

The only Susan I know
is a tiny baby.

I...

Oh, the fun I missed.

I never knew
about the highchair.

Now you're going
to be married.

Is this your young man?

Yes, it is.

Does he love you
as much as he should?

How could he help it?

And do you love him?

Oh, what
silly questions.

Father went to Paris to...
Didn't you meet him?

No. I missed him.

Well, grandmother,
wasn't she downstairs?

It's all right.
I'm not staying.

I'm just
traveling through.

I only have
a few minutes.

I'd love to see you
in your wedding gown.

Why... Well, the dress
isn't here yet.

Oh. Well, don't forget...

Something borrowed,
something blue,

Something old,
and something new.

I brought you
your something old.

It's your baby cap.

When you were very little,
your ears stuck out...
not very much.

But we made you wear this
all the time.

Pin it to your slip.
No one will ever know.

Good-bye, dear.

Have a dozen children.
Have fun with all of them.

Never let one of them
out of your sight,
not for a minute.

Mother.

Oh, mother,
please stay.

I... i sent you
that invitation.

You sent for me?

Oh, yes, mother.

Please stay.
Please, mother.

Darling, wild horses
wouldn't drag me away.

Oh, Susan, baby,
are you sure?
Are you sure you want me?

Oh, of course
I want you.

I think I've
always wanted you.

Oh, darling.

Oh...

Madame!

Daisy!
Oh, you look wonderful!

Hobson told me
you were here.

I had to see you
before you left.

She's not leaving,
Daisy.

She's staying
for the wedding,
aren't you, mother?

Oh, I'm so glad.

I'll prepare a room
for you.

A room for me,
Daisy. You'll
take my room.

Oh, no, darling.

No, mother.
I want you to.

I'll tell
grandmother.

Oh, Daisy,
she's beautiful,
she's lovely...

And she's my daughter.

Yes, madame.

Indeed she is.

She likes me, Daisy.
I know she does.

She never forgot you.

Every Christmas,
when the family
was together...

Christmas...
Everybody here but me.

I never even
sent her a present
all those years.

Oh.

I'm going out to
get her something for
every Christmas I've missed.

Oh, say, that's...
that's quite a lot
of Christmas presents.

Daisy, they haven't moved
that gambling casino,
have they?

No, madame.

Good.

[Croupier speaking French]

[Croupier speaking French]

Good luck, mademoiselle.

[Marble hits roulette wheel]

[Croupier speaking French]

Oh, that's too bad.

If I were that
roulette wheel,

You'd be
a million francs ahead.

Give it another whirl.

Not even a roulette wheel
can resist you.

Thanks,
but it bores me.

Cash me in, will you?
Quickly as you can.

Oui, monsieur.

You brought me luck,
you know?

Will you have
a drink?

No, thank you.

Martini, please.

I say, are you
all by yourself?

Yes.

Well,
since we're both alone
in a foreign country...

Friendly but foreign...

Will you give me
the pleasure of
having dinner with me?

I'm sorry. I couldn't.

I read somewhere
there's a curse
on money like this,

Unless you spend
every penny of it
the very same day.

Please help me to
escape that curse.

Well, I'd
certainly like to,

But I'm always afraid
of big, strong men with
that... Dangerous look.

Ho ho!
Stuff and nonsense!

Besides,
there's something else.

Yes?

Oh, it's not
a nice story.

Well, never mind.
Get it off your chest.

Well,
I really shouldn't
tell you this...

But I came here
with lucien.

Lucien?

Lucien the dress designer.

I don't know what
I saw in him.

Oh? What happened?

Well, when we were
leaving the hotel
this morning,

There was another woman
in the car...

Very tall blond
with dark eyebrows.

I believe
I've seen her.

Oh, no. Not that one.
This one only turned up
yesterday.

Well, no woman of pride
would stand for it.

Naturally not.

And then,
will you believe it,
he simply drove off.

No!

With all my luggage
in the back of the car.

You can't trust
anyone nowadays.

How right you are.

So now you understand
why I can't have dinner
with you this evening.

Afraid I don't.

Well, i... i have
no evening gown.

I have no wrap.

Well, maybe we can find
some spot where we can
pick up these trifles.

Well, I looked around.

It would cost
6,950 francs.

6,900 francs?

And 50.

I say...

Uh, and besides,
I have no place
to stay tonight.

Ah... It so happens
I have rather a pull
at my hotel.

We'll take care
of that.

Shall we go?

Oh, uh, please,
don't bother to come with me.

You know, I could, uh,
I could do the shopping
by myself.

It's a pleasure.
I'm like a child
about pretty things.

Oh, but... but really,
I...

You could go back to
that roulette table
and wait there.

This is your lucky day.

I believe in
following my luck.

Ah ha...

Oh, well...

Ah, this one
is lovely.

Yes, it is. Huh.
Very nice.

Woman: This one
is my favorite.

Don't you think
that one would be
lovely on madame?

Well, I like this one
for her even better.

I'll decide later.

I'd like to
think it over.

Mais oui, madame.

Could I see
some nightgowns, please?

Oh, most certainly,
madame.

[Speaking French]

Sheer ones.

Very sheer.

Just this morning,
we received some
dreamsy lace.

Uh, look, be a dear
and wait for me outside,
will you?

It's quite all right.
They do this over here,
you know?

Oh, yes,
I know, but I'd feel
terribly embarrassed.

Yes, I understand,
my dear.

Oh, now, now,
let me see.

6,950 francs.

There you are,
my dear.

Thank you.
I, uh, I won't keep
you waiting long.

Get the best.

The frame must be worthy
of the picture.

Oh.

Ha ha!

I'm sorry.
I can't make up
my mind now.

Tomorrow, maybe.

Oui, madame.

Oh, madame.

Did you put
my things aside?

Certainly. Your packages
are all wrapped up.

I was sure you would
find your purse.

Oh, I did. In the most
unexpected place.

There's your
6,950 francs.

Merci bien.
I will get your receipt.

Here's your receipt.
The boy is bringing
your packages.

Thank you.
Is there a back door?

Certainly. Through here.

* oh, what a difference
the Navy's made to me *

* Dee Dee Dee Dee Dee *

* da Dee Dee Dee Dee Dee *

* Dee Dee Dee Dee... *

William,
that woman is here!

Not really?
Well, I can't say I'm surprised.

And the appalling thing is
that Susan has seen her

And insists
upon her staying.

Oh, you mean Susan
likes her, huh?

Well, she's
undoubtedly attractive,
and her figure is good.

It is. It is?

The vital thing is
you must get her
out of here at once.

Oh, I'll think of
something by tomorrow.

Tomorrow won't do.
The wedding rehearsal
is tonight.

And the pennystones
are coming. The vicar, too.

And you know
what an old stick
lord pennystone is,

To say nothing
of the vicar.

Mother, i... i can't just
throw her out bodily.

Oh!

I'm not an acrobat,
you know.

Appeal to her.
Tell her...

"If you have any of the love
a mother should have,

You will think
of Susan first."

Yes. That might work.

"If you have any of the love
a mother should have..."

"You will think
of Susan first."

"You will think
of Susan first."

[Car pulls up]

There she is.
Be firm.
Kind, but firm.

Huh? Oh, yes.
Yes, of course.

And remember,
William, you're a man,
and she's only a woman.

Huh?

Susan: Somebody
help me, please.

Open the door,
somebody. Open...

Oh...

Willy.

Hello, Julia.

Well, let me put
the packages down,

And let's have a look
at you.

Put them right here
on the table will be
all right.

There we are.

Oh, William,
you've improved.

Oh, yes. You've lost
that gangly look.

Oh, well,
I didn't know
I ever had it.

No, not anymore.
Hmm. Distinguished.

Quite handsome.
Very dangerous.

Well, my dear Julia,
you're being
most, uh...

Well, aren't you going
to tell me how I look?

You look lovely,
Julia.

You always did look
lovely in white.

Well, thank you.
That's very sweet of you.

Uh, I'm sorry
you couldn't
meet me in Paris.

Ah, yes.
I'm sure we'd have had
a lovely time, too,

But I had to go
to the ballet.

Ballet.
I thought it
was the opera.

So did i.

You know,
I was so astonished
when I got in there

And found
it was the ballet.

Really? Ha ha ha!

Look! Christmas presents!
Isn't this wonderful?

I don't want to
distress you...

Don't you
love Christmas,

Even if you
have to celebrate it
in the middle of August?

My dear Julia...

Panties. Black panties.

Every young girl
feels so grown up
and sophisticated

Wearing black panties.

Uh, there's something
I must bring to
your attention.

Oh, please
don't let's fuss.

I'm merely going to say,
if you, uh...

If you have
any of the love
a mother should have,

You'll think of Susan
first.

You know,
you say your lines exactly
as if you'd learned them.

Shouldn't do that.

Nobody needs to
tell me what to do.

Handkerchiefs.

How can you tell?
Handkerchiefs
don't rattle.

In a small,
flat, square box?
Got to be handkerchiefs.

What's this
6,900 francs?

And 50. Nightgown.
Very conservative.

High neck,
sleeves down to there.

Be reasonable,
Julia.

I know that you won't do
anything embarrassing
or unconventional, but...

Oh, William,
don't be subtle.

Tell Julia.

After all these years,

How am I going to
explain to my friends

The sudden appearance
of a wife?

Don't tell them
I'm your wife.

What?

Tell them you picked me up
in Paris in a bar...
a good bar.

I was wearing sable,
and I was with a maharajah.

Oh, be reasonable.

Oh, very well.
Then, it was a cheap bar,
and I was wearing squirrel,

And I was with
a second lieutenant.

Julia, you're
talking like a fool,
and you're not a fool.

How can I possibly
explain you away after
all these years?

Tell the truth, William,
tell the absolute truth.

What truth?

Tell your friends
that I'm your wife
and that one day...

We'd been married
one year and two months;
I was very happy, William...

You came to me and said,
"Julia, I don't love you
anymore.

I think it's better
if we separate."

After all, William,
that's the truth.

Nobody has to be ashamed
of the truth.

That's very cruel.

I thought so
when you said it,

But you wanted
to get rid of me,
so I went.

But this time,
I'm staying until
after the wedding.

So let's be
a devoted couple

And take these packages
up to our daughter...

With a smile, William!

A happy, happy smile!

Ha ha ha!

[Piano playing
bridal march from lohengrin]

Will one of the ushers
come stand for
the groom, please?

Lady pennystone,

I'm so disappointed
your son isn't here

For his own
wedding rehearsal.

He had to attend
a bachelor dinner tonight.

His regiment, you know.
Quite an honor.

Oh.

Now the bridesmaids...

Now, I want you all
to step this way.

This way, please.
One step.

I beg your pardon,
vicar.

They should move
that way.

Their dresses
will clash dreadfully
with the tapestry.

You see,
they will be wearing
cyclamen pink.

Oh, my goodness!

Mother:
What is the matter?

Cyclamen pink
is bad luck.

Oh, nonsense. Huh.

Oh, William, please,
don't let's take chances,

Not with Susan's wedding.

The dresses are made.

Well, couldn't
they be dyed blue?

Impossible.

Now, please
let's not be hasty.

I don't believe
in superstition either,
knock wood. Nevertheless...

Oh, I wish I'd been as
smart as you, lord pennystone,

But I was a fool.
I defied it.

And just what
happened to you,
Mrs. packett?

Yes, what happened?

Well, it was in London,
I was in a show
in a very good part,

And in the finale,
we had a parade of nations,

And I was South Africa,
in a beautiful blue dress.

I thought
we were discussing
cyclamen pink.

That's just it.

The manager of the show,
he had a fight with his wife.

Now, she was
from South Africa,

So to get even with her,
he threw out South Africa

And made me Bulgaria
in a cyclamen pink dress.

Bulgaria?

In cyclamen pink.

Ah, Julia,
please, we...

No, William, listen.
Then it started.

The very first day,
I cut my finger,
I lost my purse,

I sprained an ankle,
and I had a row with
my best friend.

Coincidences,
that's all.

Oh, that was only
the beginning, William.

And the next day,
I caught a cold,

I burned a hole
in my new fur coat,

And I got a letter saying
that my second-best friend
had died in Portugal.

More coincidences.

I suppose the sea lion
was a coincidence?

Sea lion?

Yes, we had a sea lion
in the show.

Oh, a perfect gentleman.

As well-mannered an animal
as you could hope to meet
in a month of Sundays.

Always treated me
like a lady...
In a blue dress.

Uh, Julia, please,
what's all this got to
do with Susan's wedding?

Oh, come, come, William,
she made a very important
point there.

Thank you.

And a very
interesting
story,

If I may say so.

Well, anyhow, I changed
into the cyclamen pink dress,

And there I was,
standing in the wings,
waiting to make my entrance,

When pow!
He was in my arms!

Who? The manager?

No. The sea lion.

Merciful heaven!

You know how it is
with sea lions.

Completely
unpredictable.

Well, there was this one
right in my lap,

And we were
looking at each other
straight in the face.

By jove, a situation like that
calls for quick thinking.

What did you do?

Well, I jolly well
hauled off and slapped
that old sea lion

Right in the snoot.

Well, my dear,
I must say,
bully for you.

What did
the sea lion do,
mother?

Well, he chased me
clear across the stage,

Slithering along
and barking with rage!

Orr! Orr!

He knocked me
into the orchestra pit.

The Bulgarian ambassador
lodged a protest.

The whole show
was busted up.

I was fired.
That's cyclamen pink for you.

Let us get on with
the rehearsal, vicar,
if you please.

Oh, yes,
yes, yes.

William, please do
something about it,
for my sake.

We'll discuss it
later.

Vicar: Well,
that's all, really.

You will all remain
in your places

Until
I pronounce them
man and wife.

Now the groom kisses
the lovely bride,

Followed
by her father
and the best man.

William: Well, then,
come, everybody,

And let's rehearse
the toast to
the bride and groom.

Vicar:
Hear, hear!

Vicar: That's
a splendid idea.

Well...

Please...

The organist always
kisses the bride.

It's an old welsh custom,
you know,

Handed down from
father to son. Excuse me.

Well...

Fresh.

I was thinking
of something.

Look, come with me.

Listen to this.

[Plays mendelssohn's
wedding march]

Don't you think
that's prettier
than the other one?

Oh, I do. But grandmother
prefers lohengrin.

Oh, she does?

My dear.

Oh, William,

Please have them
change the color
of those dresses.

I-I'll handle that.

The pennystones
and the vicar

Think you're
the most charming woman
they have ever met.

Oh.

And I quite agree
with them.

Well,
thank you, William.

What march did
you and father play
at your wedding?

Ah, neither.
Your mother and I
were married during the war

In a small French town,
and, well...

Yes. The only music we had
came from the canteen
next door.

That's right.
The...

Remember?
They were playing
my wonderful one.

[Plays piano]

* di di di di *

* whenever I'm dreaming,
love's love light a-gleaming *

We used to call it
our song.

* I see *

* my wonderful one *

We didn't have much
of a honeymoon.

* how my arms ache
to hold you *

Your father had to be
back with his regiment
within 48 hours.

Well, that's more than
the other fellows had.

* more dear *

* it's you,
only you *

* in the shadowy twilight *

* da di di di di di *

* my dear, I live for you *

* I'll always adore you *

* my wonderful,
wonderful one *

[Knock on door]

I brought you something.

Would you like it
over there beside you
or on the dressing table?

Why, I think
there's more room
over there.

Roderick's
rather an attractive man.

A little on the serious side,
but he's attractive.

Isn't he?

You know,
I've never seen father
so happy before,

And I thought
now that you're back
and that you and he...

Don't start getting
any funny ideas.

Your father's
a very fine man,

But what you may not
happen to know is that
he's not in love with me.

He told me so
a long, long time ago.

Oh, but sometimes after
people get a chance
to think things over

They, well, they...

Darling, he told me
he didn't love me.

Now, when a thing
like that is settled,

Well, it's settled
for all time.

Look, mother.

One of your nighties.

Oh, all the presents
were just wonderful.

I'm so glad.

You know,
those people here tonight,
they were nice.

And that ritchie,
I like him.

Oh, I hate him.
You saw what he did.

One kiss? Oh, pretend
it never happened.

Well, it's not
only tonight.
That's the least.

Well, what's the most?

Well... Well, you'd think
if a girl were engaged
and a man knew it,

Well, you'd think he'd
have a little respect
for her.

Well, I am surprised.
He seemed so nice.

I thought so, too.

The first few days
he was here,

We had a lot of fun
together.

What did you do?

Oh, we took walks
and went fishing.

He let me beat him
at tennis.

Then... then suddenly
he changed.

Suddenly?

We were sitting
in the garden one night,
just talking.

I had on my gray dress,
and... and...

He kissed you?

About a dozen times!

Whew!

And he held me so tight
and kept saying
he loved me,

And all the time
he went right on
kissing me!

Did you kiss him back?

Well... Well, at first,
I did, but...

Well, after a while,
I wanted to stop,
but he wouldn't.

And he just
kept on kissing me

And telling me
how much he loved me

And that he couldn't
live without me.

Oh, you...
You have no idea.

Well, yes,
I think I have.

Yes, I think
I understand
how you felt.

It's been the same
ever since.

The minute we're alone,
he just wants
to kiss me,

And he keeps saying
the most embarrassing
things.

What embarrassing things?

Oh... A lot of
silly things,
that's all.

Why, nobody's eyes
are like wet violets.

Are they?

Why, I think yours are.

It's embarrassing.

If he only knew
how much I hated him,
he'd stop.

Why... why, my goodness,
I'm practically married.

Well, don't you worry
about it.

Roderick will soon be here,

And you'll never have
to see ritchie again
as long as you live.

Oh! You don't know
ritchie.

Well, I'm getting
a pretty good
picture of him.

But, Daisy,

Doesn't Mr. packett
still like his ham
sliced very thick?

Yes, madame.

With lots
of mustard?

That's right, madame.

No, no, Daisy.
Two separate hampers.

Mr. packett's
just come down,
madame.

Oh, thank you. Good.

Hey, where are you
off to?

Well, I thought
I'd go into town.

I was just going to...

No, you don't.
You stay here.

You're going on
a picnic.

Good morning,
everybody.

Morning.

Blue!

B-I-u-e. Blue.

My son insists
the cyclamen pink
is bad luck.

You know, William,
I always say

It takes a figure like yours
to wear sports clothes.

Mmm.

Oh, how utterly
disgusting!

Huh?

It's addressed
to you, Julia.

William:
Well, what is it?

Uh, it's
an advertisement.

What are they selling?
Muscles?

Vitamins.
Italian vitamins.

Huh. Funny, I never
get advertisements
like that.

Oh, they're just
for women.

Huh. There's
a little writing on it.

Large bottles, 4 francs.

Small bottles, 2 francs.

They didn't have
vitamins like that
when I was a girl.

You're right,
mother.

First vitamin I ever saw
with a mustache.

You're getting
the large bottle,
naturally?

You know, William,
I was just thinking.

It's a perfect day
for a picnic.

You took the words
right out of my mouth,

And I know
just the spot,
way up in the mountains.

Boating, fishing.

Oh, I just hope
it won't get too cold.

Oh, we'll build
a little fire.

Mmm. I've no
low-heeled shoes.

Look, the car
will take us right
up to the spot,

And the last 50 feet
I'll carry you.

Mmm.
You're making it sound
very attractive.

We'll take a lunch,

And I've got some
wonderful old champagne

And a very special
surprise for you.

Oh, well, you know me.
I just can't resist
a surprise.

I'll get the car.

Oh, don't rush.
It takes Susan about
10 minutes to get dressed.

Susan?

Mm-hmm.
I'll help her dress.
Won't take long.

Well, I don't think
she'd like to go.

Oh, William,
I've only got 3 days here.

I can't leave her behind.
I just can't.

Yeah, but I think
she'd be bored

Sitting out there
in the cold...

Well, you can build
your little fire.

Yeah. Well,
I don't think...

Yeah, well,
all right. If...

Well, of course,
it would be simply wonderful
just the two of us alone.

Why, if only there were
someone for Susan.

Yeah.

I've got it!

I know... your mother!

Oh, good heavens, no!

The, uh, uh,
the painter fellow,

You know... ritchie.

Oh, wonderful!
Never would have
occurred to me.

Daisy!

Oh, he's such
a nice boy, too.

I had a long talk
with him this morning.

Uh, Daisy!

Yes, sir?

A picnic lunch
for 4, please.

Yes, sir.

Thank you.
Oh, Daisy...

Two separate
hampers, huh?

Yes, sir.

Did it have to be
this place?

Well, I promised you
a surprise.

This is one
I didn't expect.

Have you been here
before, mother?

Oh, yes.
I've been here.

I once carried
your mother

Across the threshold
of that house.

Oh, you and dad...
you spent your
honeymoon here!

Oh, how romantic.

Yes. Very.

I could honeymoon
up here as long as
the food held out...

With the right girl.

Good morning,
Mr. William.

Hello, Jamie.

You picked a fine
day for fishing.

Well, well...

If it isn't
Mrs. William.

It does my old eyes
good to see you.

Thank you, Jamie.
You're looking well.

It's time you were
coming back to us.

[Screaming]

[Bellowing]

It's only macintosh.
You ought to be used
to him by now.

Jamie raised him
from a cub. He's as
harmless as a baby.

Oh, he is?
Well, the last time
I was here,

He chased me right
into the lake.

Maybe you had some
crackers on you.

Come on, macintosh.
I'll show you.

Come on, macintosh.

Come on, lad.
Come on, lad.

Here, here, here.

[Chuckling]

Show macintosh a cracker,

And he'll follow you
through a forest fire.

I'll get the boat
ready, sir.

Thank you, Jamie.
Uh...

Oh, oh...
Wait a minute.

Say, somehow it never
occurred to me...

That boat's a little
small for 4 people.

Maybe we better
split up.

Anything you say.

You and Susan
take the boat.

No. I have
a much better idea.

I remember
some lovely walks

Up in the woods
along by the stream.

I'm sure Susan would
like that much better
than fishing.

I'll leave your lunch
over here.

Fine.

Mother, do you think
it's all right?

Of course, darling.
Don't take everything
so seriously.

But you know what
I told you last night.

Yes, I do.
I had a long talk
with him this morning,

And I'm certain
he'll behave himself.

Come on.
Let's get going.

We'll probably have
lunch on the trail.

Well, it depends
on you.

Julia: Ritchie,
I'm relying on you to
take good care of Susan.

Believe me, Mrs. packett,
I'll do my very best.

Now what?

Like to take
a look inside?

Uh-uh.

Bet I could still
carry you over
the threshold.

We came up here
to go fishing.

We can go fishing
later.

We'll go fishing now.

I'll fix the rods.

All right.

Oh, uh,
wait a minute, Jamie.

I've got another boat
around here.

No, you haven't got
another boat.

Yes. I have
a little dinghy.

Oh, that.

Yes. Where is it?

It's lying over
in the brush there
somewhere.

I want to have
a look at it.

Why don't you use
the new boat?

I've got an idea.

The money burned
a hole in your pocket

Till you bought yourself
a new boat.

Now you do not want
to use it.

William: Ah!
Here she is, Jamie.

Jamie: Here you are,
master William.

I told you...
just a collection
of wormholes.

I wouldn't even let
my mother-in-law
out in her.

That's as seaworthy
a craft as I ever
laid eyes on.

Can we get it
in the water?

You can get anything
in the water.

Let's go.

[Splash]

William:
* o sole mio *

* a lovely day *

* good morning,
Julia *

* you going
my way? *

Coming.

* let's go,
the fish are waiting *

* look out for
the high heels *

* ti-Dee-um ba doo *

What are you saving
the other boat for?

This one's better.
Look.

Ah... Ha ha ha!

Oh, that's nice.

Well, you are full
of surprises, William.

Will it please you
to come aboard?

It's a bit damp,
isn't it?

Soon as that water
swells the planks,

It'll be tight
as a drum.

Is that the way
it works?

That's why they use
this particular
kind of wood.

Just in case,
will I follow you
in the good boat?

Go away, Jamie.

Go away and
cook yourself
some kippers.

Well, I warned you.

Your own father
could do no more.

Jamie doesn't
trust it, either.

Everything
he knows about boats
I taught him.

I've got another
surprise for you.

Oh, what?

You know, this isn't
a coincidence...

Susan and ritchie
off together.

It isn't?

It was planned.
I planned it.

Oh, you did.

I wanted to be
alone with you.

There must be drier
places to be alone.

Now, now, Julia,
there's something
romantic about this...

You and me and...
The boat.

It's leaking
awfully fast, William.

Pay no attention
to it. It'll seal up
in a minute.

Oh, please, William,
turn around and go back.

All right,
if you insist.

But I've
been sailing
all my life,

And believe me,
at first, all boats
leak a little.

Then the water
swells the wood.

That automatically
closes the cracks,

And the whole boat is
as dry as a bone.

Ooh...

[Squealing]

William... oh!

William, you are
full of surprises,
aren't you?

Are you all right?

I'm all right.
Leave me alone now.

You wait right here,
and I'll get the other boat.

Take that oar.

Look at that tree...
How bent it is.

There's a reason
for that.

Oh, really?
Yes.

You see, that's a boy
tree, and he's bowing
to the girl tree.

And he's saying,
"you're so beautiful

With your lovely
green hair and your
nice brown bark skin."

Do you know what
she's saying to him?

No. Tell me, ritchie.

She's saying,
"that won't do you
any good at all.

"I have a heart of wood,
and besides...

I'm madly in love
with that golden oak
in the next forest."

Let's not pry
into their secrets.

How about that tree?

Hmm... Norwegian spruce.

Can't understand
a word he's saying.

Oh, ritchie,
you're such a fool.

I'd almost forgotten
how much fun you were.

Yes, I'm just like
wool underwear.

Once you've had them
awhile, you get used
to them.

You know, I was
a little afraid to come
on this walk with you.

Susan, I'm a reformed
character.

Today you are
the ritchie I like...

The way you were
when we first met.

I hope you'll always
remember me that way.

I will, 'cause
that's the way I want
to remember you...

Nice and sweet.

Because I think
a lot of you.

I'm glad. It's meant
an awful lot to me

Knowing you
these last few months.

You know, Susan,
this is probably

The last time we'll
ever be alone together.

Yes, i...
I suppose it is.

Susan, i...
i want to wish you
every happiness.

That's very
important to me

Because you're the only
woman in the world
I'll ever love.

Oh, but I've got no right
to tell you that.

Forgive me.

There's nothing
to forgive.

You're being
very kind...

But as soon as
the wedding's over,

I'll pack up my traps
and get out.

Where to?

Oh, I don't know...

Some of the wide open spaces
beyond the behind.

Probably the Congo.

They call that
white man's grave,
don't they?

They do? Why?

Oh... Beriberi,
Blackwater fever,
rinderpest...

Rinderpest? Well,
I thought that was
a cattle disease.

Yes. Men...
Die like cattle.

Oh... Ritchie,
you can't go there.

I won't let you.

Oh, I'll be all right.
Got a good constitution.

With any luck, I'll...
I'll probably last
3 or 4 years.

Well, you're not going,
so don't think it.

Why, you're young
and talented.

You're brilliant.
Your whole life is
in front of you.

My whole life
without you...

What does it mean?

No, Susan,
my mind is made up.

[Bellowing]

Aah! Ritchie!

Oh!

Why, he...

Oh...

Oh, Susan,
I love you.

I love you
so much.

Julia: If I'd known
you were so anxious
to get me in here,

I could've saved myself
a long, cold swim.

[Sneezes]

Well, you're here,
and it's results
that count.

I'm in no position
to say that your method
isn't effective.

Well, it should be.
I devoted many years
to perfecting it.

I suppose the method
always worked.

Uh...
Had one failure.

She drowned,
stubborn wench.

Ooh! Either there's
a window open in the cabin

Or there's moth holes
in this tablecloth.

Well. Mmm-mmm.

Say... You know,
I'm wet myself.

Belt, please.
Thank you.

Ooh... I don't know
about you,

But my feet
are frozen.

That's funny.
They never used
to get cold.

I remember on cold nights
in the old days,

I used to find them
the source of
greatest comfort.

Well, they're
no comfort to me
right now.

Haven't you got
any slippers
up here?

No. Oh, yes.

Look... This drawer
here, under the bed.

There's a pair there,
just your size.

Do they all take
my size?

Funny enough,
they're yours.

A likely story.

Oh...

Why, so they are.

Oh, how nice.

You know, these
are the very first
things I bought

After
we were married.

Told you
they were yours.

I certainly
didn't need them.

I just wanted to see
what it felt like

To go into a shop
and buy something...

And have my husband
pay for it.

I flatter myself
I carried it off
rather well.

They never suspected
we were newlyweds.

Yes, I know.
In fact, it bothered
me at the time.

There you were,
buying women's shoes

As if you'd been
doing it all your life.

I hadn't, though.
Not shoes.

Are you confessing
or bragging?

Neither. I'm a man
of the world

Who, under
all circumstances,

Remains cool,
nonchalant,
and debonair.

[Laughing]

You look like the man
who stabbed Caesar.

I feel like him,
too.

I wonder what
those old boys
used for pockets?

Where do you
suppose they kept
their cigarettes?

Would you care
for one?

No, thanks. Oh...
You never mended that.

Well, you broke it.

Oh, no. You were too lazy
to get out of bed,

So you had to use the lid
as an ashtray.

It wasn't laziness.
If you remember,

That was the first night
of the big snowstorm.

A man would have to be
mad to get out of bed
on a night like that.

That was a storm.

First time
I ever remember

That road being
completely blocked.

We might have been
the only two people
in the world.

We were.

Every honeymoon
should have a snowstorm,
don't you think? Hmm?

Oh, look,
William, look.

What? Oh.

Oh, you look so funny!

Me? Well,
I'll thank you to take
a look at yourself.

That hat. That hat.

[Laughing]

I wish the village mayor
had spoken English.

I nearly said "I do"
at the wrong moment.

He was awfully nice,
though.

Well, so he should
have been.

You gave him 250 francs
and a bottle of scotch.

But he gave us
a much better present.

Talked my colonel
into giving me
48 hours' leave.

I was so afraid
we wouldn't have
any honeymoon at all.

You were going to be
so brave, weren't you?

All right...
So I cried.

[Plays waltz
on phonograph]

Now, William,
look here.

[Knocking on door]

Looks like a nice game.
Anyone want to play?

This is the gentleman

Who wished to see you,
Mrs. packett.

Oh, yes?

No, ma'am.
I'm very sorry.

I wanted to see
Julia packett.

She's off on a picnic
with her husband.

Her husband?!

But th-this is
most surprising.

I remember you.
You're the vitamin man.

I'm Fred ghenoccio of
the 6 flying ghenoccios.

Flying ghenoccios?
What are those?

They're only the most
famous acrobats
in the world.

Oh. You're one of Julia's
theatrical friends.

You could call it that.

If you'd care
to sit down and wait.

No thank you, ma'am.
I won't wait.
Not me. Not now.

Why? What's the matter?

Well, you see, I thought
Julia was single,

And I come down here
and find

She's popping around
with her own husband.

Oh! You mean you're
interested in Julia?

I asked her to marry me,

And she gave me every
reason to believe...

Well... Well, I suppose
I'm not the first man
to be made a fool of.

Good day, madam.

One moment,
Mr. ghenoccio.

Does Julia know of
your intentions?

My honorable intentions?
She certainly does.

Well, let me explain.

Julia and my son
are husband and wife
in name only.

Julia's only here for
her daughter's wedding.

Oh. Oh, you mean
sort of window dressing?

Precisely.

Oh, well,
that's different.

Will you tell Julia
I'll phone her?

We're stopping
at the hotel here.

Why don't you stay and
have dinner with us?

No, thank you. I have
my mother with me.

Well, bring her
along, too.

And we would be delighted
if you'd be our guests
for the weekend.

Julia would love it.

That's frightfully
nice of you,

But I hate to cause you
any inconvenience.

Nonsense.
Any fiance of Julia's
is a friend of mine.

Come, Mr. ghenoccio.
Come.

[Piano playing]

Susan...

A minute ago,
you were fizzing
all over the place.

Now you look as if you'd
lost your best friend.
Is anything wrong?

Oh, no.
I'll be all right.

Nonsense. You're
as nervous as a kitten.

Is it the wedding?

Perhaps. I hadn't
thought about it.

Oh, well,
big weddings are mostly
gas and gaiters, anyway.

Everybody has
a good time except
the bride and groom.

Oh, I'll be all right...
If I live long enough.

If I loved a man,
I know what I'd do.
I'd elope.

Elope?

Why not?
Take the man you love,
run away with him,

And get married
just as fast as you can.

I wish it were
as easy as that.

But it is. Only two
things you need for
a really happy marriage

Are you and
the man you love.

Remember, it's
the whole of the rest
of your life.

But father...

Your father wants
the same thing that
I want... your happiness.

Even your grandmother.
Remember,

You're the only one
who really knows
what's in your heart.

Hope I'm not
intruding.

Oh, no. No,
I was just leaving.

Oh, mother...
I love you.

And, daddy,
whatever happens,

I love you, too.

What on earth
has happened to her?

William, your daughter's
in love, and she's about
to be married.

It's about time
she began to enjoy it.

After all, love makes
the world go round.

If you'll excuse me,
I have some things to do.

Couldn't you
do them later?
I want to talk to you.

No, I really ought
to fix my hair.

But what I've got to say
is rather important.

Wouldn't it do just as well
some other time?

I'm going to tell you
a million times,

Beginning
this very minute.

Come now, sit down here.

Well, all right.

Uh...

Julia, I love you.

I want to spend
the rest of my life
making you happy.

William,
you're incredible.

Those are exactly
the same words
that you used

When you proposed
to me.

Suppose they are?

I love you,
whatever words I use.
I always loved you.

You've kept remarkably
quiet about it,

Haven't you,
all these years...

Not a hint of it
leaked out when
you went to Paris

Especially to stop me
from coming here.

But, you see, i...

And yesterday you
managed to keep it very
well hidden all day

When you were trying
to throw me out.

But today,
all of a sudden,

You discover
this great love.

Forget that, Julia,
please.

I know what I want now.

Oh. Well, when do
we start the honeymoon?

Honeymoon?

Perhaps we better not
even wait till after dinner.

You might change
your mind again by then.

Ridiculous.
I'm wiser now.

The first time,
it took you 14 months
to leave me.

Now maybe if you're wiser,
you can get rid of me in 7.

Can't you concede
the possibility that
a man can change?

Take your hand down
from your ear.

That's exactly the position
you were in when you said,

"Julia, I don't
love you anymore.

Can't you concede
the possibility that
a man can change?"

Stop raking up
old wounds.

All that's past
and forgotten.

The only thing real
is this afternoon.

What about
this afternoon?

The romantic way you
threw me in the water?

The gallant way you let me
wear a tablecloth?

Julia, that kiss...
It must have meant
something to you.

Sure, it meant something.
It meant a warm fire
and dry clothes.

I'd have kissed macintosh
for less.

I don't believe it.

Julia, dear,
surprise!

Some friends
of yours.

Fred: Hi, Julia!

Freddy! Fred!

Well...
Freddy, darling!

Oh! And Mrs. ghenoccio.

May I present
Mr. William packett.

How do you do?

Haven't you been
in show business?

Uh, no, no,
I'm afraid not.

I could swear I'd seen
your face before.

Really.

My, what a lovely place...

Hmm. Champagne.

Julia: William,
I want you to meet
Mr. Fred ghenoccio,

My fiance.

Your what?

And now, shall we
go in to dinner?

[Laughs]

Then grandfather,
father, and now us.

I don't like to boast,
but our act opens

Exactly as it did
before king George ii
on may 19, 1729.

How exciting!

Seems to me your
family's getting
in a rut.

They didn't think so
at the command performance
last year.

We've got
a command performance
of our own. Come on.

Fred: Not one king
or queen has ever
missed our act.

Excuse me. I still have
to change lady godiva.

I thought you'd
already done that.

Yes, but I haven't
seen it in
the artificial light,

And things always
look different.

What I mean is,

I did my best to
get rid of Susan, but
it may not come off.

Ah, yes.

I think I'd better
go with you.

Yes. Run along.

That's right.
No use leaving
things to chance.

You know, the part of
the act that I like best

Is where Fred stands
in the center of the stage

And holds up his 5 brothers
on his shoulders.

That trick took 7 years
to perfect.

I must say,
that's one way
to spend 7 years.

There's a great
satisfaction in knowing
you can do one thing

Better than anyone
in the world.

Come now, Julia,
muscles were born
before Freddy.

After all, I'm not
coming apart at
the seams myself.

Now, William,
I'm your mother,

But you're not going
to compare yourself
with Mr. ghenoccio.

Well, it'd hardly be fair.
He's an amateur.

And to an amateur, muscles
are no bloomin' good.

You've got to know
what to do with them.

Now, an amateur, if he was
to pick something up...

Say, a table,
for the sake of argument.

Careful now, ma.

Don't worry.
We don't open
till Tuesday...

I say an am...

An amateur would
pick it up something
like this here.

Now, what muscles
am I using now?
Can you tell me that?

What muscles am I
using now? The arms.

Naturally.

That's the amateur
way, chum.

What you really
should use is the legs.

Now, I can pick it up
like this. Watch closely.

That part
William can do.

You bend down, you grasp
the object firmly,

And then you straighten up
like this. See?

Now... Notice the knees.

Notice the knees.

Notice the knees.

Now... What muscles
was I using then?
I'll tell you.

The legs.

The legs!
You follow that?

Think of all
the time I've
wasted reading.

Light fiction,
of course.

Oh, ma, remember
those Sunday afternoons
when pa was alive?

All pa thought of
was how to
improve the act.

We never wasted
a minute.

Every Sunday afternoon
for half an hour,

I had to do this
with pa in the chair.

Hey, put me...

Well, once around
the park, but watch
the crossing.

Only with pa,
it was harder.

He always balanced
a full glass of water
in his hand.

Good old pa.
If I spilled a drop,
he'd beat my brains out.

Good old pa.

Now, what muscles
am I using now?

The legs, the legs,
the legs, the legs!

Careful,
you'll hurt yourself.

That's only part
of it, chum.

I used the legs
and the arms
and the abdominals.

Hey, a little soft
there, chum.

Better watch that,
William.

I still say
they use wires.

[Knocking softly]

[Knocking continues]

Julia: Who is it?

It's i. Open the door.

What do you want?

I want to talk to you.
Let me in.

Half a mo, chum,
half a mo!

I've been waiting
for something
like this.

What do you mean?

I know you
society swells...

Wandering around
the passages
at night,

Sneaking into
strange bedrooms.

Don't be a fool.
Julia's my wife.

She may be
your wife, but
she's my fiancee!

If Julia and I
decide to talk, it's
no concern of yours.

It's the middle
of the night.

This is no way
to behave.

If you've got so much
manners, why didn't you
bring up your son right?

Don't talk to my mother
like that!

My son can say
anything he pleases.

Go ahead, Freddy.
Shout.

Please, everybody.
Freddy, it was
perfectly innocent.

I'll decide that.
I won't have any man

Wandering into
the bedroom of any
fiancee of mine,

If I make myself
clear.

Take your hands
off me before i...

You forget, sir,
this is my house.

Oh, I can take
a hint.

Julia, get dressed.
Ma, pull yourself
together.

We're leaving
this house now!

I'm not leaving.
I came here
for the wedding.

I'm not going
till it's over.

All right, all right,
I'll leave.

It you don't believe me,

You can sit right here
in this hall all night
and watch.

I hope you get pneumonia,
if I make myself clear.

Now I know
who you are.

You're the man who
forced his way into
my dressing room.

[Music playing softly]

Oh, William!
Good to see you.

How are you, bunny?

Bit of bad luck
at the tables, old boy?

No, no...
Just sitting here,
thinking.

Well, speak out, bill.
What else is
an old friend for?

I'm having trouble.
Woman trouble.

Is there any other kind?
I know exactly how you feel.

Been through it
a thousand times.

But you go around
looking for trouble.

Not anymore. I'll never
trust another woman

As long as I live,
I don't think.

You've got
a genius for picking
the wrong playmates.

This one was a lady,
incredibly attractive

With the most ravishing
red hair.

They always have
red hair.

She'd had bad luck
at roulette.

It isn't very often
one gets a chance at helping
the attractive ones.

Not at my age.

So naturally,
being cautious
and conservative,

You staked her
so she could get
her money back.

Do you take me
for a fool?

I gave her the money
in a lingerie shop.

For what purpose,
as if I didn't know?

Well, she didn't.
She took my 6,900 francs,
went out the back entrance,

And left me standing in front,
holding the baby.

No! How long
did you wait?

How much
did you say?

6,900 francs.

And 50?

And fif...
How did you know?

Oh, bunny... You and I
are about to become
total strangers.

Come over here
and sit down.

Fred: When a man's
never been
on the stage,

There's no way of
telling what he's
liable to do next.

And the thing that
surprised me most
was when he...

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Julia,
Mr. ghenoccio,

I'm afraid I behaved
very badly last night,

And I want to apologize.

After all, who am I
to stand between Julia
and her heart's desire?

Well, now,
that's very sensible
of you, chum.

No hard feeling?

No, no. Now it's
all over, none at all.

Splendid. Beautiful
morning, isn't it?

Never saw the sun
shining so bright.

Ah... Scrambled eggs.

You're certainly
in a gay mood.

Why not?

I lost you, that's true,

But there's
no disgrace in losing,

Especially
to a better man.

Kippers!

Glorious golden kippers.

That's the spirit.
No use crying
over spilt milk.

No. And it's a poor heart
that never rejoices.

Well, I must say
you're taking it
very well.

After all,
he travels fastest
who travels alone.

To say nothing
of a stitch in time saves nine.

What's that got
to do with it?

Nothing. It just
occurred to me.

You know, I've often
wondered... Nine what?

Hmm?

Hello?
Some marmalade left.

That means Susan
hasn't been down
to breakfast yet.

She probably overslept.
Don't worry about her.

I don't. Worry never
solved a problem yet.

Never trouble trouble
till trouble troubles you.

Quite true.

What is it?

Excuse me, but there's
a gentleman to see you.

I'm not expecting anyone.
Did you invite somebody
to breakfast?

No.

Hobson, when you say
"a gentleman,"

Do you mean a gentleman,
or just a man in spats?

A gentleman, sir,
unmistakably.

Trot him in, then,
will you, please?

Excuse me.

Hobson: This way,
if you please, sir.

You wished to see me?

I hate to barge in on you
like this, sir,

But I was told...
So there you are.

Just a minute, young lady.
Just a minute.

So my information
was correct.

Sir, you forget
yourself.

My name is
William packett,

And I don't believe
I have the honor of
your acquaintance.

Colonel Bruce
willowbrook, sir,

Late of his majesty's
punjab rifles.

And my business
concerns this lady.

There's no necessity to
bother these gentlemen
with our business,

So can we have
a discussion outside?

Oh, no, no.
I've searched the whole
of France for you,

And I'm not going to let
you desert me again.

Desert you again?

What's he to you,
Julia?

Another husband?

No, no, Freddy,
don't get excited.

Julia can explain
everything.

Come over here
and sit down and
tell him, dear.

Well, of course.

You know,
sometimes the most
complicated things

Have the simplest
explanations.

And then, after
the explanation,

Why, the complicated
thing becomes
a very simple thing.

Yeah. Sure.
I told you she
could explain it.

A little clearer
explanation would be most
welcome to me, Mr. patton.

Packett.

Pardon me, Mr. packett.

Perhaps you'll start
by explaining what's
your real purpose

When you began talking to me
the other afternoon.

Me... a complete stranger.

You mean you
didn't know him and
you talked to him?

He talked to me just
as much as I did to him.

William:
Don't be stuffy, Fred.

She talks to strange men
all over the world.

Fred: Well,
I don't like it,
and I never will.

Oh, Fred, in a casino,
everybody talks
to everybody else.

Casino? You were
gambling!

Just a few francs.
You couldn't exactly
call it gambling.

And after she'd lost
every franc of her own...

Lost
every franc!

She loves roulette,
Fred.

If she ever gets
blue, give her a few
thousand francs

And send her off to
the nearest casino.

It's better
than a new hat.

Yes, well,
I'm not concerned

With your financial
arrangements,
but with mine.

Leave me your address,
and I'll send you
the money you gave me.

You took money
from a strange man?

Not...
Not exactly.

You either took
money or you didn't.

Freddy,
think nothing of it.

To Julia, money's
of no importance.

As fast as she gets it,
she tosses it away.
That's her charm.

Well,
it don't charm me!

I'm sure, sir,
she would've repaid
you immediately,

But she probably
lost it just as fast
as you gave it to her.

But I didn't give her
the money in the casino.

I gave it to her
in the lingerie shop.

The lingerie
shop?!

What were you
doing in
a lingerie shop?

Freddy, I'll explain
all this to you later.

If you will just give
her time enough, Julia
can explain anything.

Well, it's taken me
two days to find her,

And I'll hear
that explanation now.

What were you doing
in a lingerie shop?

I was buying
a negligee.

And a nightgown.

What did you need
a nightgown for?

I didn't need a nightgown.
I never wear nightgowns.
I... i wear pajamas.

Yes, well, the man who
brought her here ran away
with all her clothes.

Another man?

Freddy, believe me,
there was nothing
to the whole thing.

A man brought you to
this city, and to you
that's nothing?

You're getting me
so upset, I don't know
what I'm saying.

All I want is
my 6,950 francs.

6,900 francs!

And 50.
There's no reason now

Why I should pay
for her nightgown.

6,950 francs? What
kind of a nightgown
was this?

Very thin.

Oh, I don't believe
a word of it.

As well as I know Julia,
I still do not believe
one word of it.

I've got 100 witnesses
who saw her flirt with me
in the casino,

Pick me up in the bar,
lure me into
the lingerie shop,

And then sneak out
the back entrance.

You cad.

You make it sound
perfectly horrible!

If I'd known
you were going
to act like this,

I wouldn't have
spoken to you
in the first place.

There, there, dear.
You let me handle this.

Are you sure
you didn't say something
or suggest something

That might have
offended her?

Suggest something!
When she told me she'd
got nowhere to sleep,

I offered her
my hotel suite.

Your hotel suite?!

I wasn't going there,
Freddy!

That's why I was going
out of the back door.

Suppose
there had been
no back door!

All shops have
a back door.

Listen to me, all of you.
I'll tell you the truth

And the whole story
from the very beginning.

I needed that money.
I was absolutely broke
when I came here.

I couldn't even have come
out here to the wedding

If I hadn't
been given the money

By a very dear gentleman
friend of mine in London.

Another man!
In London!

All over the world,
you've got men!

That's a shocking way
to talk to Julia.

Have you no confidence,
no faith?

Where there's smoke,
there's fire.

If you've a nasty,
suspicious nature

And suspect
everything she does,

Then all I can say is
she's too good for you.

If you can't
appreciate a woman
as wonderful as Julia,

Then I think the best
thing for you to do is...

I think you better get
out of here right away.

William,
let me handle this.

Fred, if... if you...

Oh, get out of here
right away!

Gladly! You'll never
see me again.

And I was going
to make a ghenoccio
out of you. Hmm!

Where's my mother?

In the bar,
drinking her breakfast.

I hope you fall
off your trapeze.

Without a net.

Bunny: Ahem.

Oh, uh, uh...
Colonel westbury...

Willowbrook.

I'm sorry, willowbrook.
This lady is my wife.

She's a little
high-spirited,
as you can see,

And every once in a while,
she gets bored with me.

After all, you know,
I'm just an old,
stodgy businessman.

I see... just a lark
on her part.

Exactly. And
I assure you, sir,

There was nothing
wicked or malicious
intended.

Now, if you'll give
me your name again...

Colonel willowbrook,
William.

Yes, yes.
I'll see that
you get the check.

Thank you, sir.
Forgive the intrusion.

You have a fine husband,
madam.

There's nothing
so valuable in a marriage

As complete understanding,
sympathy, and tolerance.

You're very kind,
colonel.

[Chuckling]

Bunny willowbrook!

When did you get here?
Your old room is ready
and waiting for you.

Bunny: I'm afraid
I must be off.

Nonsense.
When did you get here?

William, you
never told me that
bunny was here.

Bunny?!

Now, don't jump
to conclusions, Julia.

So William and
colonel willowbrook
are old friends?

Old and
dear friends.

They practically
lived together.

6 months from now,
we'll all get a great
laugh out of this.

Well, you three better
laugh pretty loudly

Because whatever city
you're in, I'll be
in another city!

Whatever country
you're in, I'll be
in another country!

And if only there were
another world to go to,
I'd... I'd...

I'm sorry to interrupt,
but I was asked

To deliver this to you
at precisely this hour.

Miss Susan left it.

Susan left it?

Yes, when she and
Mr. ritchie went away.

When she
and ritchie went...
ritchie went away?!

Read it!

"Dear mother and dad,
ritchie and I
love each other,

"And we're being married
at the lodge at 2:00.

"Won't you attend
the wedding and give us
your blessing?

Susan and ritchie."

They can't!

They won't! I'm going up
to put a stop to this!

William!

William, come back!

You've no right
to stop them!

Oh!

Listen to me!
William!

William, you'll ruin
their lives!

I won't let you,
William!

[Thunder]

Julia: William!

I won't let you smash
Susan's marriage the way
you smashed ours!

I tell you,
she loves him!

I'll believe that
when Susan tells me.

You mustn't
interfere in this!

William,
I won't let you!

Well, it doesn't look
as though they've been...

"Daddy, darling,
by the time
you get this,

We'll be married
and on our honeymoon
in england."

Married!
Yes, married.

And there's nothing
you can do about it now.

Good-bye.

Look...

Why, it's Jameson.

And Hobson.

What is this, William?
Another of your tricks?

No, Susan's. Listen.

"Your car won't be
back until the day
after tomorrow.

That gives you
48 hours to admit
you love each other."

48 hours?!
They're crazy.

I wouldn't spend
48 minutes with you.

I'll walk home.

Don't be a fool.
You'll have
to come back.

Oh!

You haven't
a chance!

In a little while,
it'll be so dark

You'll fall
off a cliff
and kill yourself!

I'd rather be dead!

Good-bye, Julia.
I'll always remember you

As the bravest woman
I've ever known.

And let me tell you...

Oh! Beast!

Oh!

Oh! Oh!

Aah!

[Crash of thunder]

Aah!

Beast!

[Macintosh
bellowing]

[Screaming]

[Roof banging]

[Sniffing]

Aah!

[Sobbing]

Unh!

[Coughing]

[Laughing]

[Laughing]
