Wheee! Yay!

Let's go out again. We
didn't fall in the water once.

Want a child?

I'm not as young as I
was a few minutes ago.

The truth is, the three of
us, we're jealous of you.

Usually, it's only me.

A kiss for showing off.

How was the water?

Salt, with a slight taste of scotch.

Why don't you go out there again, Dick?

You might just drown, and
Nicole might just remarry.

Dear, loyal, devoted Tommy.

Disgusting, but true.

Dick.
Yep.

First prize.
Thanks, Abe.

Bit early, isn't it, Abe?

It's eleven.

By no means one of
the worst times of the day.

Papa, look at my castle.

Oh!

Where'd you get the flag? Mama.

Mother went and bought it. You did?

According to the Paris
edition of the New York Herald,

today is the fourth of July.

It is?
Well, in that case,

of course, we must have a party

for all of the Americans on the beach.

A bad party, in short.

Dick, you said no more parties.

Uh-oh, who's the girl?

It's Rosemary Hoyt.

A new movie girl.

She's pretty, don't you think, Dick?

Do you suppose she talks?

Why don't you go find out, Dick?

Better still, invite her to the party.

Oh, and give her this before she cries.

My name is Dick diver.

My wife is worried you'll get burned.

Thank you, Mr. Diver.

Is that your wife?

Yes. We hope you'll come to
our fourth of July party tonight.

Will you?
Oh, yes. I'd love to.

Well, the only thing is,

I'm here with my mother, and
it's our only day here, and...

Your mother will be
very welcome, miss Hoyt.

By the way, I should confess,
I did not see your last movie.

I've only made one.

This is my son lanier, miss Hoyt.

How do you do? Glad to meet you, lanier.

I am glad to meet you, too,
'cause you are very pretty.

Oh, well, after that,

you better come over and
meet the rest of the family.

Oh, look.

The movie star is joining
the snob section.

The divers can afford that sort of thing.

It's her money, isn't it?

Yeah.
Packing house money.

She was one of the warrens from Chicago.

I would like to know them very well.

Now, Louis...

I don't want to know them.

I hate these rich expatriates that...

sh, sh, sh.

Good afternoon.
I'm Dick diver.

Albert Charles McKisco.

How do you do?

My wife.
Good afternoon.

Mrs. Dumphry.
How do you do?

Monsieur carrier. Enchante, monsieur.

Pleased to meet you.

My wife and I would like to invite you

to a fourth of July party
tonight at our house.

We'd absolutely love to.
Thank you very much.

I'm glad you can come.
We'll be there. What time?

About eight o'clock at the villa Diana,

up there on the hill.

Yes, we looked for
the perfect place to live,

and we fell in love with this.

The sea, the orange trees,

and the wine we grow in
our own vineyards on a hill.

You know, it was only just
now that I realized who you were.

Who was I?

You're Abe north, the composer.

Keep to the past tense, please.

Sure, I met you before.

I'm Albert Charles McKisco.

I wrote
"america unlimited."

Well, long live Henry Ford.

What's your place in
the economy of life, barman?

I shoot.

Just any old thing, huh?

Well, buffalo in Africa, tigers in India,

bolsheviks in Europe.

Don't you ever get
the urge to do anything?

Yes, I would like to restore
the holy Roman Empire.

Hey!

Sorry, Tommy, but the first
dance with Nicole is always mine,

and for nothing in the
world would I give that up.

And for nothing in the world would I
be the cause of you giving anything up.

Thank you, Tommy. The next? Thank you.

Dr. Diver.

I want you.
Want you very much.

Say when.

Well, just to make sure...
How about two-twenty?

By no means one of
the worst times of the day.

No!

Oh, the divers are darling.

I'm agreeing with you, miss Hoyt.

In love, too, aren't they?

Yep. But did anyone
ever tell you

what beautiful nostrils you have?

Now stop.

Oh, I'd love to see the
rest of the house sometime,

and the gardens, too.

Ask Dick to show you the gardens.

He hung the lanterns,
and he's very proud of them.

Oh, I'd love to.

I believe I was promised this one.

You were indeed.
Excuse me.

Miss Hoyt.

I've been looking for you in every place.

I'm Louis.

What do you do, Louis?

I teach French
to Mrs. Dumphry,

but she learns very, very slowly.

But you, I can teach you
in six or seven nights.

Would you care to dance?

Yes.

You look marvelous tonight, Nicole.

It will be something to take away.

Away? Oh, no, Tommy.

Where?

When?
Tomorrow.

Paris, and after then, Africa.

Not that nonsense of joining
the Spanish Foreign Legion.

It's my kind of nonsense, so why not?

Because we'll miss you, Tommy.

Come on, Nicole.

I've little excuse for
having been here this long...

feeling as I do.

Oh, Tommy, you absolute child.

It's true what I say.

It's also true that
any feelings I have for you

needn't concern you
in the least... or Dick.

But Dick loves you as
much as I do. Believe me.

I do believe you.
That's why I'm going to Spain.

Well, please,

I just thought as you live in Hollywood

you would not think there is
anything so wicked or wrong.

I'd rather not talk about it.

Excuse me, Tommy.

Darling.

Go rescue golden girl.

She's safe.

Please, darling.
Go dance with her.

I don't know what that word
means, and please don't tell me.

Excuse me, Louis, your pupil awaits.

Not now. Please.
Oh, yes.

I apologize for Louis.

Please don't. Mother brought me
to Europe to acquire experience.

To acquire it?
Or resist it?

That she left to me.

And Louis?

Louis is a resistible man.

Do you like this?

I hate it.

Come on.

She's a very pretty girl, Tommy.

It's her profession to be.

She's what people call a...

A healthy girl.

She's healthy and she's
pretty and I don't care.

You are a beautiful woman, and I do care.

In that case, Tommy,

you may get me another
glass of champagne.

Enjoying your bad party, Dick?

Yes, as long as we're here.

How long do you think it will last?

Oh, ten, twenty years,
maybe, it'll still be going on.

The rest may have left,

but we'll still be here, the two of us.

A little tired, maybe,
but by the summer sea.

Yes, please.

After all, we're the
only two here right now.

The rest are all people we've invented.

Yes.

But stay very close to me, darling.

Don't ever leave me.

Because without you, I'm not alive.

One more?
The last one?

Why, Tommy, you know
it's not going to be the last.

Last or not, I want it.

Mr. Diver?

Mrs. Hoyt, would you like
to see the garden, too?

No, Mr. Diver, I think
I've seen all my gardens.

You two go ahead.

You have everything, haven't you? I have?

A beautiful home, a beautiful
wife everyone adores.

And I speak French with
hardly a trace of an accent.

Right now, Mr. Diver, you refuse
to take anything I say seriously,

but the time will come.

"Doctor" diver, if you don't mind.

You're a doctor?

Everyone I've heard
calls you "mister."

That's the sort of a doctor I am.

There's no mystery about it, child,

I didn't disgrace myself
at the height of my career

and have to hide out on the riviera.

Well, are you still practicing?

Never stopped.

I think you're the most
wonderful person I've ever met.

Except, of course, for my mother.

She's a charming woman.

Very perceptive eyes.

Have I?

You have romantic eyes.

You really think so?

They'll always see only what
they want to see, nothing else.

Right now they see you.

And the lanterns
you've hung in the garden.

Who told you I did?
Nicole.

And she practically insisted
you show them to me.

She did?
Yes.

Was there anything wrong with that?

I think we'd better go back.

Dick.

Nicole is upstairs.

I don't think we have danced yet.

Anything wrong with her?

Mrs. Diver, I mean.

No.

Nicole?

Nicole.

Please let me come in.

Nicole.

Nicole?

Go away.

Go away.

Nicole...

Now try to pull yourself together.

Leave me alone!!!

Mrs. McKisco!

Will you please get out of here?

I hate you.

I hate you!

All right...

Tell me why.

You swine.

You took that child
into the garden down there.

Nicole... you wanted
Rosemary here.

You'll wake the children!!!

Do you remember? Hmm?

You got me to ask her.

You asked her to have me
show her the garden.

Yes...

Because you wanted it, that's why!

You took me into the garden...

And made love there...

Because it's secret,
and you're ashamed of me.

Nicole...

This is not real.
Do you understand?

This is fantasy... something imagined.

That's what you always say, Dr. Diver.

Something that did not happen
except in your own mind.

There.

Take that.
You'll feel better.

From what I just saw and heard upstairs...

Mrs. McKisco.

I forbid you to talk
further about the divers.

Hey, barman!

Where do you get off
forbidding my wife anything?!

Albert! It's time
we went home.

Hear, hear.

Uh, will all of you
please excuse Nicole and me?

We had a long day in the
sun and my wife's gone to bed.

My dear fellow, no apologies.

Louis, I told you to let me
know when it was one o'clock.

Good night.

Good-bye. It's been
a marvelous party,

and thank you for asking
me. Thanks for coming.

Good night, sir.
Good night, Louis.

It was a lovely evening.

It was the most wonderful
evening I've ever spent.

I'll, uh, tell Nicole that.

You know, we're going
to Paris in the morning.

I wish we weren't... we'll see
each other again soon, I'm sure.

Good night.
Good night.

Good night.
Night.

How's Nicole?

She's all right.

I gave her a sedative.

Will you tell her good-bye for me?

I will.

And to you, Dick.
I wish you luck, all good.

Good-bye, Tommy, you coward...

running off to a war.

Please hurry.
Oh, keep your shirt on.

Good night, diver,
we had a wonderful time.

Thank you very much.
Glad you could come.

Good night.
Good night.

Well, I just hope you enjoyed yourself.

Why, sure I did!

These aren't really bad people at heart.

Trouble with me is,
I'm my own worst enemy.

Not while I'm alive.

Daddy?

What are you doing up?

Go back to bed.

Topsy needed a drink of water,

and last time you said...
you go back to bed.

That's a good boy.
What's that noise?

Nothing.
One of the guests.

Daddy?
Shh!

Will you be quiet?
You'll wake your sister.

She's already awake.

No, I'm not.
I'm asleep.

Daddy?

Yes, what?
Go to sleep.

Can you count up to ten backwards?

Sure I can.
Now good night.

But count to ten backwards.

Lanier, will you go to sleep?

Nicole?

Darling.

Sorry.

No. No...

Don't be.

Yes.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.

We're going to win.

You will.

I won't. I can't.

You will.
You will.

You will.

What went wrong, Dick?

I was doing so well.

Wasn't I?

Wasn't I?
You were.

You are.

No.

I'll never be all right.

And you'll always be all right.

You're one of those people that's meant
to work well in this world, my darling.

I'll always be like this.

No good for thee, my darling...

No good for thee.
Nicole.

It won't be like that.

I swear, whatever happens,
it won't be like that.

Oh, Dick.

It won't?

Do you really in your heart
think it won't?

On my life.
I swear it.

Remember...

Who I love?

What I swore, what I promised?

Yes. Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

I remember.

What time is it?

After six.

You're up early.

Late.

Either way.

What I always say is,

a party's at its best
when everybody's gone home.

Abe, I wish you'd finish that
damn tune or throw it away.

I told you that in Paris... ten times.

Yes. Almost
as many times

as you were gonna finish
that opus about schizophrenia

or whatever it is.

Oops.

My autobiography.

Tell you what. Let's all
pack up and go to Capri.

Huh?

Listen, Abe...
The party is over.

Terminé. Finito.

Compris?

Says who?
Says I.

Nicole and I are going to
spend the next part of our lives

quietly... alone.

I'm going back to work.

I'd like to see the day.

Look, Abe, I'm fed up.

I'm tired of picnics, parties and balls.

Now listen, Dick,

ten years ago I...

I had two musicals on Broadway.

One of 'em wasn't bad, either.

Mr. North, I'm in no
mood for biographies.

Sorry to bore you, Mr. Diver.

My point, in brief,

is that I can finish a tune,
and you can't finish... Abe.

Go to bed.

Dr. Dohmler, you knew
didn't you? You knew.

We can thank Dr. Diver for a
brilliant result with your sister.

We consider the progress she has made
since he took over the case remarkable.

Yes, but when will my sister
be able to leave here?

Dr. Diver?

I like frankness, doctor,

and as her guardian, I'm entitled to it.

I should hope in a matter of months

now that we've uncovered the
precipitating factor... the clue.

Perhaps if you had been more
forthright with us, miss Warren,

in the beginning,
and at the other institutions

where your sister spent
so much of her young womanhood.

I beg your pardon. Just because I've
listened to your so-called theory, clue,

is no reason that
I accept it as the truth,

and besides, if anything like
that had happened to Nicole,

she'd have told me years ago.

Miss Warren, you don't understand.

That would have been impossible.

The secret was buried
deep in her subconscious.

And but why, pray?

Your father was your
sister's only protector,

her god, supreme and perfect,

on a pedestal, high, high, high.

And then came this...
This event.

And she was unable to reconcile
her former concept of your father

with the shock... her mind broke.

That's sheer fantasy.

She always was a creature of fantasy.

When my mother died,

Nicole became the apple
of my father's eye.

If anybody had even gone near her,

he would have killed him.

I saw that look.

My father, one of the most distinguished

and respected men in america?

I didn't say he wasn't, miss Warren.

But what are you implying?

Did Nicole say anything?
What did she say?

You're accusing my father,

the most perfect human being I ever knew,

of this sordid criminal act?

Please, miss Warren.
We are accusing nobody.

And you must put out of your mind

the words "sordid"
and "criminal."

We are not moralists here,
let alone police.

Only by knowing the truth
can we help your sister.

Forgive me for bringing
this up, miss Warren,

but Nicole seems very preoccupied

with the idea that
your father took his own life.

It was an accident.
He was... he was overworked.

Yes, but before his death he said
nothing that would shed some light on this?

Please, miss Warren.

He only said...

however trivial. Who
knows? It might help.

It was not trivial.

I was with him just before he...

just before he died,
and... Father whispered...

I always thought he imagined
things before the end...

he said...

He did say only god could forgive
him for the wrong he'd done Nicole.

You've helped your sister, miss Warren.

I hope father understands why I told you.

He would want her to be well,
you must believe that.

Of course he would.

Of course.

When this is all over,

we will give you some more
positive proof of our gratitude.

The most positive proof you can give

is to understand Nicole and love her.

Are you sure it's all right,
my not seeing Nicole?

Quite all right. She didn't
know you were coming,

and I won't tell her you were here.

That is miss Warren, the sister
of Nicole, nicht? Yes, doctor.

It's not bad for the
clinic that she came here.

After all, the warrens are big...

so big as Morgan's Bank and Rockefeller.

It will be good for all of us.

Sehr gut.

Franz...

I don't even know if it's
going to be a total cure.

Ha ha! Total cure.

Enough that you have
gone so far so quickly.

Dick, what is this new modesty you have?

I remember once, in your
shameless American way,

you said, "I want to be
a good psychiatrist,

maybe the greatest one
that ever lived."

I'm afraid I was still very young.

Franz...

In the dead hours of the morning

did you ever lie awake
in a sweat, thinking...

"Dear god, am I like
the rest, after all?"

Am I like all the rest? Ha ha ha!

No, no, no, no, no.

I lie awake worrying that I am not.

Opposites, you and I. That's
why we work well together.

We will have our own clinic one day.

Yeah...
Maybe this one.

You will see, Dick.

Well, I'm seeing Nicole.
See you later. No, no, no.

We have a drink together to your future,

to ou future.

Guten tag, Dr. Diver.

I'll get miss Warren down now.

Danke schoen.

Miss Warren,
Dr. Diver is here.

Thank you.

Hello, captain diver!

I've been waiting for you.

Did you see the sketch
I started of you? Yes.

I tried to think of you as a captain.

Well, it's very good.
And very flattering.

Well, I don't know whether
I like you as a captain or not.

I don't like the army
or things like that.

I prefer to think of you as a...

As a great white cat!

Meow!

Well, how have you been?

Oh, I...

Still think one thing today
and another thing tomorrow.

That's really all that's the
matter with me... In my head.

But you know, I...

my stomach still gets tied up in knots,

and it hurts.

One doctor in Chicago
said I was bluffing.

But that was years ago.

You feel the same way now as then?

No.

Now I think...
Love is all there is

or should be.

I can understand that.

Oh! They understand you
to death here!

You get lazy!

I've got some phonograph records
my sister ordered from america.

Shall I put one on?
Yes. It's been a long time

since I've heard any new music from home.

You know, you'd like my sister.

Her name is really Beth, but
we've always called her "baby."

I don't know why.

She's been married twice,
but she still calls herself Warren.

Baby was a duchess once,
for a year or two.

This one's called
"I never knew."

Nicole, how would you
like to go downtown?

Downtown?
You mean in Zurich?

You mean just go there?

The two of us.

Well, what would we do?

Take a walk.

When?
Right now.

Through the streets?

There'll be thousands
of people in the streets.

I know.

Well, Dick, I...

well, you see, it's my clothes.

I haven't been to town... to any town...

you look fine just as you are.

Oh, no, I... I hate myself in this.

And... my hair.

Nicole, nobody gives a
damn about your hair in Zurich.

Oh, Dick, I... I can't do it.

You're going to do it.

You're not cross with me?
No.

But it wouldn't matter if I was.

You don't have to be concerned
about my feelings at all. Ever.

Understand?

Yes, Dick.

Can I put on a hat?
Sure.

Suppose you don't like it?

I'm crazy about it already.
Go on, put it on.

We're going out for a while.

We'll be back in about an hour.

Come on.

You like the world?

I do with you!

You'll find it's a wonderful
place, even without me.

You know, I had a bicycle once.

You did?

What are they looking at me for?

What are you looking at them for?

Stockholm!

And Cairo.

Oh, I'd love to go.

London. You know...

I was taken there when I was eleven.

I don't remember a mortal thing about it.

The fog, maybe.

Oh.

Dick...

Do you think that people
see that I'm a crazy woman,

or whatever I am?

Nobody in the world sees any such thing.

Well, then they're blind,
because I am crazy...

but with happiness, Dick.

And gratitude.

That's not abnormal, is it?

Being grateful?

Oh! I want to run!

Just run!

Hey!

Ah...

That's the most exercise I've had...

Since I ran after an ambulance
three miles at the argonne.

I can run very far.

However far I run, will you
always catch me, Dick?

Always?

No, Nicole,

there'll be other men to do that.

Many of them.

Well...

Dick, there's something else.

All right.
What is it?

There's something at the back of my head

that keeps asking a terrible question.

Yes?

I want to know...

Whether I'll ever be able
to be at ease with other men

the way I am with you.

You certainly will,
after I discharge you.

Discharge me?

That sounds so cold,

like divorce me or something.

You don't think I'll be fit to marry
anybody for a long time, do you?

I don't see why not.

You're attractive,

bright, charming...

Thank you for telling me that, Dick.

Well, I, uh...

Think we'd better be getting back.

I have a patient waiting.

Do we have to?

Of course,

miss Warren still suffers

from a certain social maladjustment.

But I feel that contact with the
outside world is now indicated.

Her fear of men has greatly diminished.

Unless you yourself now
aggravate the problem, doctor.

I'm not sure I quite understand, sir.

Dick, your position is a difficult one.

Miss Warren is an attractive woman,

but the situation must be terminated...

the transference, the dependence on you,

her infatuation... ended.

Of course.

Certainly before she is
sent out to the world alone.

Now you must ask yourself quite candidly

what are your own feelings in the matter?

My feelings?

Your feelings,
Dr. Diver.

I'm in love with her.

Du lieber gott!

I was afraid of that.

Afraid mostly for you.

Hmm. Love.

How can a first-class brain
with a brilliant future

fall in love, so-called, with
the broken mind it is healing?

There have been cases of good marriages

between psychiatrists and patients.

Yes, so I've been told.

But... but even in these cases,

it is the tyranny of the weak,
the tyranny of the sick!

First you learn...

To live life their way.

And then later on, to like their way.

But if the patient is already cured!

Talk like a scientist, Dick,
not like a love-sick schoolboy.

You cannot be both lover and
psychiatrist to the same woman.

You cannot be a guide, a doctor, a god,

and a husband.

For when she discovers
that she married a human being,

a fallible human being...

crash! Disaster...

for one or the other or for the both.

Now, Dick, I have been your teacher...

your very proud teacher...

but you are not a pupil any longer.

You must do what you think right
as a doctor, as a man,

and in the best interest of your patient.

More than ever,
if she be the woman you love.

I'm sure you can count upon me
to do that, sir.

Coffee?

Aren't you glad you'll be through
with doctor and sanitariums?

Yes, I suppose so.

It will be nice
to have fun like other people.

Oh, Dick.

Don't move.

I'd like to draw you
just the way you are now.

Now, you mustn't overdo
things for a year or so.

Go back to america and be happy.

Oh, I don't want to go back to america.

I want to stay here...
in Switzerland, I mean.

Oh, you've had enough of Switzerland.

Go back home and fall in love.

Oh, I... I couldn't do that.

Why, sure you can.

Maybe not for a year or so,

but sooner or later.

You can lead a perfectly normal life

with a houseful of beautiful descendants.

I, uh, I suppose I won't be
fit to marry for a long time.

Oh, nonsense.

You'll be pulling your own
weight in no time at all...

long after your friends have
been carried away screaming,

I assure you.

Uh, your sister said she'd pick
you up about the tenth of the month.

Oh? Well, I'm glad
you'll be meeting her at last.

I'm afraid I won't be
meeting her. I'm going away.

When?
Tonight.

I'm taking the train to Geneva.

Dr. Dohmler has kindly
given me a leave of absence,

and I want to do
some more work on my book.

Oh, but...
But what about me?

Nicole...

Think how happy you're going
to be now that you're cured.

Cured?
Yes.

Yes.

You see, for months and months

there seemed such a reason to be cured.

And when you lose that, it
seems it wasn't any reason at all.

Now, Nicole, you mustn't say that.

The very fact that you've made a
complete comeback after all these years

proves that the
precipitating factors of the...

well, it...

It's getting rather late.

I... I guess I'd better
be getting back.

I'll take you back.

Oh, please, doctor,
couldn't I go back alone?

That is, if you think it's all right.

Of course it's all right.

Well, good-bye, doctor.

Good luck.
Have a nice vacation.

Have a nice life.

Oh...

Hello!

Dick!
Nicole!

How are you?

Well, tell me.

Wonderful!

How good you've come here too, Dick.

You must dine with us.
We're at the palace.

Baby's with us.
You'll get to meet her at last!

Oh, I'm sorry.

Dr. Diver,
this is captain barman,

and the conte de marmora.

How do you?
It's a pleasure.

How's Zurich these days?

Oh, as healthy and dull as usual.

I'm going back tomorrow.

So soon? Do you live in Zurich?

No... do you really have
to go back tomorrow?

I must. I'm going to zoom down
the hill at dawn on my bicycle.

Ha! With me on
your handlebars!

No, I mean really, Dick.
Will you?

I can't think of more fun.

Oh, no, Nicole, I will
carry you down in my arms.

Or I will throw you,

and you will fall gently like a feather.

As long as Dr. Diver is there
to put the pieces together.

Oh, Tommy, how right you are.

You have no idea.

You're not at the palace?

No, no, I'm at a little pension,

the rosier, further down the hill.

Oh. Well, dinner at eight,
black tie.

Then I'm afraid no dinner.

Oh, don't be ridiculous.
Come as you are.

Baby, will you dance with me?

Have this one with Nicole, Tommy.

Will you? Yes, Tommy. Dance with me.

I'd like that.

You have the next one
with me, Dr. Diver.

I don't think you'd like that.

They were very indefinite at the clinic

when I took Nicole away.

Old Dr. Gregovius...
or whatever his name is...

said that she should lead
as natural a life as possible.

Well, that's not so easy with
a wild creature like Nicole.

You must remember, she's
seeing life for the first time.

Before I knew it,
almost in front of my eyes,

she had her hair cut off
because of a picture in vogue.

You have to understand
my part of the problem...

not only am I her sister, but I
am her guardian, her trustee.

Cutting her hair is all right.

She's an eccentric.
You can't change that.

But how does anybody know the difference

between what's eccentric
and what's... Crazy?

Oh, Nicole is all fresh and
happy. You needn't be afraid.

Suppose I were to
take her home to Chicago.

Our father gave lots of money to
the university medical school... millions.

What could be better than
if she met a nice doctor?

Not too old but very stable.

You mean just call up the Dean and say,

"have you a nice, stable,
any-age doctor you don't need?"

No doubt this is a very
amusing situation to you.

Not to me. And it won't be to the doctor.

Oh, there'll be plenty
who will jump at the chance.

Well, anyhow,
when you start shopping around,

you'd better take somebody along
with you who knows his doctors.

Then you won't get a pig in a poke.

Let's get to the point, diver.

What about yourself?

Not interested, thank you.

I was under the impression
that you like Nicole.

I do.

I more than like her.
That's why I'm not interested.

Suppose Nicole were poor
instead of extremely rich?

Money has nothing to do with it.

Our kind of money has
a lot to do with anything.

Oh, I know there's the type of
man that thinks money, big money,

will demoralize him,
emasculate him or something.

Money never hurt a good man...
except in books.

It's been very interesting
meeting you again, miss Warren.

Sit down, diver, I haven't
finished with you yet.

I'm sorry, miss Warren, but you have.

Tommy, forgive me,
I'm sorry, but I'm afraid...

I'm afraid I understand.

Dick!

Your dance, doctor.

Right out here.

You'd only die of cold, and my
work would have been in vain.

I didn't know how to dance
when I last saw you.

Aren't you proud of me?

Very.

You seem absolutely...

Ha! "Absolutely"
is how I feel, Dick!

Did baby annoy you?
I think I annoyed baby.

You don't ever have to like her.

I just want her to like you.

And I could see she did.
She's got a good eye, Dick.

I'm sure.

At the clinic you... You
did like me a bit, didn't you?

Or was being nice to me
part of the treatment?

Part of the treatment.

If I hadn't been sick, would you, uh...

I mean, the sort of woman
you might have...

Oh, you know what I mean.

Now you're teasing yourself, my dear.

Why, once I knew a man
who fell in love with his nurse.

Oh, bull.

That is a vulgar expression.

Well, what about it? You
don't think I have any sense.

When I was sick, I didn't
have any. But I have now.

And if I don't know you're the
most attractive man I ever met,

then you must think I'm still crazy.

It's my hard luck, all right.

But don't pretend I don't know.

I know all about you and me.

You Warren girls know all
about everything, don't you?

Well, here's something you'd better know.

You're very attractive,
but I could not fall in love.

You won't give me a chance.

A chance?
A chance at what?

Give me a chance now.

I can remember how I stood
waiting for you in the garden

holding all myself in my
arms like a basket of flowers.

It was that to me, anyway.

I want you to
go back through those doors...

Back to your life.

That's what I cured you for.

That was my work.
It's finished.

If I am cured, I...

I can love and hope to be loved back.

What else is there for
a woman to be cured for?

Isn't this true, Dick?

A woman can fall in love...

Even a woman who's been sick,

without it being madness
or... Neurotic need.

Even a woman who spent years
and years and years in a sanitarium

can fall in love.

All right, doctor.

If you're still afraid.

Nicole!

Enjoy yourself.

Best wishes for
a long, happy life together.

Thank you, Tommy.
All my best, Dick.

Thank you, Tommy. Be
sure and come and see us

after the honeymoon.

I hope it's not going to be
a long honeymoon.

Oh, very short.

But be sure and come and see us, Tommy,

always come and see us.

Our best wishes, Dick.

And congratulations again, Nicole.

Oh, thank you, doctor.

May I steal him away just for a moment?

Well, only for a moment.

Thank you.

It's good to love so bravely
and be loved in return.

You were never married,
doctor? Yes, I was married.

You will be luckier, I hope.

You will be coming back soon to work.

I will, doctor.

And while you are away,
work a little on your book.

This can be so important for all of us.

Thank you, doctor.
I will. I'll work on it.

I shall miss you,

even for this short time.

These past three years
have meant very, very much.

Thank you, doctor.
I hate to interrupt,

no, no, no interruption.

This is very important.

When you're alone.
Open this.

What is it, instructions? Oh, idiot!

It's that embarrassing thing that
some people refer to as a small check,

only this is a big check.

Thank you, baby, but I thought I
made my position clear about money.

I never go back on my bargains.

But we didn't make a bargain.

I married Nicole because I loved
her... no arguments, brother dear,

you're in the family now,
so what's the difference?

Oh...

After como, where do you go?

Back to Zurich.

Right. Back to Zurich. And to work.

Never heard such nonsense.

Do you realize this bride of yours

have never even seen Paris?

Let along Cairo or venice or the riviera.

The riviera!
Could we, Dick?

I... think
we'd better go.

It's so wonderful to be
just like everybody else...

To reach out and find you
all warm beside me.

Shall we just love and love?

But I love the most.

Fantasy.

And I can tell...

what can you tell?

I can tell when you're
away from me even a little.

Olé!

Hello, baby!

Yes, I hear you!

Baby, you have no more idea
what Dick is like than...

no, no, I want you
to settle all the money matters,

because it doesn't matter in
the least how much I'm allowed.

I mean, how little.

We are going to live very
simply in Zurich after our trip.

Dick has almost enough for both of us.

Delete "almost."

Have I been all right?

Oh, I'm so happy, I...

I dare not breathe for fear it might end.

There's no need to open the
card to tell that these are from baby.

Why, no!
It's from Tommy barban.

"With love,
from Casablanca."

Ah!
Tommy's a good friend.

He's fond of you, Dick.
Well, that's nice.

I like people to be fond of me.

How about you?
Are you fond of me?

More than ever...

Now that there are three of us.

Shows I'm normal, doesn't it?

Sometimes it's rather
frightening being normal...

you're expected to behave
just like everybody else.

You know, lanier is a very handsome boy.

Unbutton your shoe.

Ow!

I am not going to

let... go... of you!

But you know something, darling,

that we have to do, and soon?

What?

Go back to Zurich.

Oh, no, Dick.

Please. Why?

It's an obligation that I have

to my profession, to myself,

to get back to work.

Oh, but why does it have
to be in that clinic at Zurich?

We're in such a wonderful world.

It's a promise I made
to Dr. Dohmler, to myself.

I know...

I know, your work.
Your book.

Uh-huh.

It's very important to you.

It's very important that you
work somewhere very quiet.

Baby told me about
a villa on the riviera,

high above the sea,

where we can be warm and brown...

And quiet.

And we'll build
a special workroom for you.

Oh, my sweet.

You know, darling...

That's wonderful.

But it doesn't answer our needs.

You mean my needs, don't you, Dick?

It's what you must mean.

Something I've done.

No.

No, Nicole.

I'm a doctor.
A professional man.

Yes, yes, I know you're a doctor.

And I'm your patient,
and I always will be.

Oh, please, darling.

Let me go.

Dick, would it be better for you
if we separated?

Nicole.

We're never...
Never going to separate.

Would you let me keep
my babies if we did?

Nicole.

We won't.

We won't go back to Zurich.

We'll...

We'll...

Nearly finished your song.

It's called
"the diver song."

You're the inspiration
of the whole thing!

Doctor, I've got a block!

Abe.

Go to bed.

Good morning.

Good morning.
How are you feeling?

The best... the best ever.

I've got a plan.

We'll take the speedboat,
zoom across the bay...

and I suppose have a
couple of bottles of champagne

and a chicken sandwich...
and nothing doing.

It's Zurich.

What?

Zurich, Switzerland.

Oh, Dick, no!

When?
Right now.

But last night was...

it'll never...

I promise...

Nicole, it isn't last night.

It's all the nights,
and all the lovely days.

And we are going...
To save our lives.

Well, Dick, I...

I'll go anywhere in the world you say...

As long as it's with you.
Good.

Close the house.
Shut it down, nail it up.

I'll go to Zurich today, see
Dohmler, and get a house for us.

And I'll meet you and the
children in Paris on Thursday,

and we'll all go to Zurich together.

Don't you worry about the house.

I'll take care of everything.

Thank you, darling.

We'll have a new life...
And a good one.

Is it Dr. Diver?

Professor Dohmler.

Well, of course!

Of course! Come to me.
Welcome.

Pull that chair up here and sit down.

What happened?
What's the matter with you?

Well, what happened
is quite simple: I'm old.

You? Never.

At my youngest I was
never as young as you, Dick.

But surely you're not seriously ill?

"Seriously."

I would rather say "finally."

But Dick, I can see you are well.

But are you...
Seriously well?

What frivolous errand
brought you to Zurich?

To see you, of course.

And...
yes? And?

I want to come back.

To go forward, I hope.

How is Nicole?

Tell me, how is the frau dokt diver?

Well, that's one of the reasons...

one of the reasons...
I came here, professor.

There have been relapses?

Bad ones?

It isn't the relapses themselves, it's...

It's the waiting.

It's the fear of them that
puts the greatest strain on us.

That was not too difficult to predict.

It is the tyranny of the weak.

You still don't understand
that when the relapses end...

The love ends.

When she finds out that
she married a human being,

a fallible human being, not a god...

You may smile, professor,

but I think it possible Nicole
will love me as a human being.

Of course, all things are possible.

But what will you be by that time?

Will you be still what she wants?

Or what you want?

What has already happened to you?

Ours is a strange profession.

Many of us come into it because
ourselves are a little bit broken up,

a little crippled.

We become clinical before we
can fight our own battles with life.

That's another reason
I want to come back.

It's not only the work, not only Nicole.

I need help myself.

Nicole could be helped
were it not for you;

you could be helped
were it not for Nicole.

As for your work,

gregorovius is my successor;
It is up to him.

Franz is a good man.

Franz is a limited man.
I had hoped...

I had hoped, too.

But I'll be happy to work
for Franz if he'll have me.

Good, Dick.

I am glad that
your humility hasn't changed.

Franz can learn from you.

Dr. Diver?

I'm sorry, but I must ask...

oh. Of course.

I hope I haven't overstayed.

Auf wiedersehen, Dick...

Auf wiedersehen.

Good-bye.

Now at last we will
run the clinic as partners.

Really, Franz?
Do you mean it?

Of course.
What a pair, you and me.

Yeah, but Franz, I
don't know if I... no, no,

it would not bind you, Dick.
It would give you a base.

In the winter you can
go to France, to america...

do research, write your books,

make important contacts.

But I wouldn't want to go away.

Once I come back, I'd want to work here.

Zurich, to me... so much the better.

Ah, Dick, what a team we'll make.

Me the executive manager,

you the brilliant theoretician.

But I'd need some time to brush up.

You see, I've fallen behind.

Well, after all, we have
to wait a decent interval,

but I have spoken to
the board of trustees,

and I think for me... no, for us, Dick...

we could have it for...

About $200,00.

A bargain.
Oh?

Of course, later on
we'll need a little more...

certain innovations, additions.

But where do we get the money?

Oh, Dick.

Yes, I see, of course.

Dick, it could be a gold mine.

Good-bye, Franz.

Now, now.

You're not angry with me?

Oh, no, I'm not angry.

What else could you possibly
need me for except the money?

Now, look, Dick, let's be fair.

Personally, I think it's wonderful
you have such a good life...

nice clothes, good food...

everything.

Cars waiting.

But you can't expect me... after all...

I don't blame you, Franz.

I certainly blame myself, but not you.

Dick, why don't you think it over?

I'll probably think it over

every hour of my life
for the next twenty years.

Good-bye, Franz.

Oh, darling!

How wonderful!

I didn't expect you till
tomorrow. You said Thursday.

Hello, Dick!
Welcome home!

Hello!

Hello, everybody.

Darling...
What's wrong?

Nothing. Nothing.

Well, this looks like a nice early party.

Didn't you bring us any toys?

What are they doing here?

Rosemary telephoned.
I asked her to come over.

She's a nice girl.

Abe just came by.

Darling, what it is? Did
something happen yesterday?

Before yesterday.

Oh, don't be like that.

Go on, tell me.

Well, it's rather a long story.

I'll tell you about it later.

Come on, let's join the others.

Well, Rosemary, how are you?

Welcome back to the city of lights.

She's learning fast.

What's this? I thought you didn't drink.

It's Wednesday.

I'm twenty-one today.

Oh, Rosemary!
Why didn't you tell us?

That's a terribly important age.

When I was her age, I was thirty-one.

Or was it forty-one?

Rosemary, nothing important
happens until you're twenty-one.

And the same thing
happens after that. Right, Dick?

Anyway, we'll all have a birthday party.

Oh, I can't. Mother and I are going on a
sentimental tour of the old battlefields today.

I've always wanted to do that!

I think that's rather wonderful.

Only an American girl
would visit the trenches

on her twenty-first birthday.

I celebrated a birthday
in the trenches years ago.

Father's a commander in the American
legion, and he made us promise.

Why don't you come too, Nicole?

It'd be the most wonderful birthday
in the whole world if you'd all come!

Oh, please, Dick!

Of course he will.
We al will.

We will! Say...

I'll tell ya what.
Let's have a party...

an absolutely tremendous party!

Here's a toast to you, Rosemary.

And to you, Abe. To the
imperishable glory of our generation.

Ours or hers?

Dick and I are the same age today.

You ready, Nicole?

All ready.

All ready with thee.

Tender is the night.

What's that?
Keats.

Thank you, darling.

We'll stop by my hotel
and pick up mother.

Your mother, three bottles of champagne,

two of scotch, and a fifth of bourbon.

And we go!

We're ready, Mr. Diver.

I hope just this once we could have
scrambled eggs without champagne.

Or champagne without scrambled eggs.

I wish mother hadn't been so tired.

She would have loved to have seen this.

Hey, Tommy!

Hello, Dick.
How are ya, Tommy?

Tommy, I thought you were
in Africa! When do you leave?

Any moment.
Just waiting for orders.

Don't be impatient. There must
be a war going on somewhere.

Well, we all did our bit today.

Made sure all was quiet out there

on the old western front.

Oh, Dick was wonderful!

Sit down, Tommy, we'll buy you a drink

to your return from the wars.

Oh, no, I spent many nights in the Sahara

dreaming of a dance with Nicole.

And don't tell me
the first dance is yours.

Nonsense. Of course, the first dance
always belongs to the departing warrior.

Hey, Rosemary.
Who he?

You were introduced just
two minutes ago. Remember?

Collis Clay. I met him
at a Yale prom.

Oh, yes!
I remember.

I remember very well.
Hello, Mr. Clay.

Hello again,
Mr. Diver.

♪ Boola boola

♪ boola boola boola ♪

Hold that line.

Pretty piece of baggage, Rosemary.

Yeah.
Magazine cover.

Not like Nicole.

Nicole is a Raphael.

Misjudged you, doctor.

Thought you had an
anatomical interest in Rosemary.

No, no.
Nicole is my girl.

Dick.
Hmm?

I'm terribly tired.
Could we go home?

Home? Why, the party's
just beginning!

Then you stay and have a good time.

What about Rosemary?

Show golden girl the town.

You sure?

I'm sure of you, darling.

I'll be happy to take
Nicole home. Do you mind?

Well, the answer to that has to
be wrong, so I'll say that I do mind.

Tell Rosemary good night for me.

Good night, Abe.
'Revoir.

I was only kidding, Tommy. Of
course you can take her home.

She can do as she pleases.
She knows that.

All right, Dick, but I warn you...

from now on, it's Nicole's
feelings I shall respect; Not yours.

I'm sorry.

Respect her feelings, and
nobody will ever be sorry.

- Good night, Abe.
- Good night.

Yeah, but that's my girl over there.

Oh?

Maybe you shouldn't disturb her now.

What'd you say?

You know,

I can't even talk about you to anyone...

Because I don't want anymore
people to know how wonderful you are.

Honestly, Dick...
I love you.

I really do.

Besides being very pretty,

you're a very good actress.

Everything you do, like
pretending to be in love,

or pretending to be shy,

gets across.

But we're both such actors.
Aren't we, Dick?

Every time you smile
I always think I'll see a gap

where you've lost some baby teeth.

Dick, I know you don't love me.

I don't even expect it.

But...

Take you where?

I don't care where.

Oh, no, no, that's just
the champagne talking.

Besides, have you thought
how much that might hurt Nicole?

Oh, this doesn't have
anything to do with her!

Well, there's the fact that I love her.

You can love more than
just one person, can't you?

You want to begin your life
with a terrible mess?

Oh, that doesn't matter.

You want a finish?
I'll give you a finish.

Not what I had in mind.

Okay. You show me how
you had it in mind.

Why should I show you?

You don't have to. I just
figured you were in trouble with it,

so I wanted to give you a finish.

La police! La police!

Aaaah!

Now, you stay there till I come back.

I don't understand. What's he
talking about? Officer. Officer.

I'll take full responsibility. Que vous?

Do you speaking English?
A little.

May I speak to you a moment
privately, please? Why?

Please. Come over here
just a moment.

That man's name is...

That's right.

Oh.

You mu find Dr. Diver.

If he isn't at zelli's, try
all the other night clubs.

Yes, montmarte too.
Abbey's, kiely's... all of them!

You're so wonderful.

Who's for breakfast
at the vegetable market?

I am!
You're going home.

And so are you.

I scarcely know you,
but you're going home too.

I still think you're the prettiest
girl I ever did see, miss Hoyt.

That's my girl!

Hotel ritz, s'il vous plait.

Abe, we'll drop you off.

Let's...
All go to the Florence!

Absolutely not.

Then I won't play.

Say...

He's married, isn't he? How
come he's got that beautiful girl?

He's got her because he doesn't want her.

Such, my friend, is the economy of love.

He's at it again.

Listen!

Listen to him!

I'll settle his hash!

Nice little place I have here.

Oh, I'm sure it's been in your family
for generations and generations.

But of course.

Say, we'll wake Nicole
and have some breakfast.

Good idea.
Ha ha!

Garcon?
Oui, monsieur?

Send some champagne to
my apartment immediately.

- Roederer '24.
- Monsieur driver!

Thanks heavens you are here!

We've been looking
all over Paris for you.

What's happened? Your
little daughter has been very ill.

What do you mean?
She has been poisoned.

What do you mean, poisoned?!
She is with the doctor.

Concierge.
Mademoiselle?

Will you please call a taxi for me?

With pleasure.

What is it? What's the
matter? Thank goodness.

Oh, monsieur.

This is my husband,
Dr. Diver. Dr. Faure.

Good morning.

Yes, doctor.
What is it?

Your daughter's been seriously ill.

I have pumped out all the alcohol.

Alcohol?

Oh, darling, you go back to your own room

and go to bed now.

Topsy isn't sick anymore is she?

No, dear. She'll be all right.

Come on, Ian.
Go to bed.

Back to bed.

I will, monsieur.

Apparently topsy got thirsty in the night

and found all those drinks
in the living room.

Oh?

Where were you when this happened?

I was asleep.

Asleep?!

She slipped out of the bed
without waking me.

And when I woke up, she was ill.

And she talked and acted so strangely

I couldn't understand her.

So lanier told me where
she got the drink of water.

There.

Then I knew the child was intoxicated...

but what were you doing asleep?!

It's not her fault! We left
those drinks in the living room

after mademoiselle went to bed.

I'll visit again later.

Good morning,
Dr. Diver.

You... you will stay
with her, mademoiselle?

Mais oui, madame.

Dick...

We've got to do something.

We've got to end this...
This binge.

I know.

What happened in Zurich?

What difference does it make?

It makes all the difference.

Well...

Gregorovius, he's taken Dohmler's place,

said that I could come back
if I found $200,000.

After what happened tonight, I
think his price is low, don't you?

I-I don't understand.

He's arranging to buy the place,

and take me back with him
if I put up the money.

Not otherwise.

Dick, I kept you from going back
when you could have gone back.

Now we have to go back.

The money doesn't matter.
I'll arrange that with baby.

We have to go back to save ourselves.

I just don't know what
we'd be saving, Nicole...

Especially as far as I'm concerned.

Dick, you're too great a man
to believe things like that.

Ah...

I just can't make my head work anymore.

It's as if my brain locks shut
every time I try to think.

And now topsy...

Darling...

Yes?

Non, c'est madam diver, qui parla.

Ou ca?

Mais comment?

Mon vari va venir.

Now what?

That was the police.

Abe has been killed.

What?

Oh, my god.

All right!

Madame.

Where shall I put it?

Just put it down over there, please.

Au revoir, madame.

Dick!

Hmm? Oh, Franz!

Miserable weather, isn't it?

Did you forget we have an appointment?

Hmm? Me?
No.

No.

By the way, I saw the Lennox girl again.

Yes? What is
your diagnosis?

My diagnosis is the same:
Neuro-syphilis.

The wasserman notwithstanding.

That was a very good idea of Nicole's
to take the attendants out of uniform.

Yeah, I suppose so.
Makes for a "freer" atmosphere.

Would you and Nicole
join me for dinner tonight?

I think she has something
planned with the children.

I'll ask Nicole.

Dick!
Hmm?

The pardo boy's father is waiting.

Oh. Yeah. Yeah.

You know, I'd like to
tell that guy the facts of life.

Please, Dick. Be a
little patient today, nicht?

He has one of the largest
estates in Chile.

What are we running here,
a sanitarium or a marketplace?

Tell him the truth,
as Dohmler would have.

But you are not Dohmler.

Ah, señor pardo. This is
Dr. Diver. How do you do?

How do you do?
Come in.

Well, Francisco, how are you?

Very well,
Dr. Diver.

Now, doctor, have you gotten
anywhere with this boy yet?

You were highly recommended to me.

You took him with you.
Cure him.

Please, Dr. Diver, tell to
him what you tell to me.

He might listen to you.
Uh...

Will you excuse us a moment, Francisco?

Go on up to your room for a while.

He is incorrigibly corrupt.

I'll see you later, Francisco.

Señor pardo...

When a young man feels an
insecurity about being a man,

one often looks to childhood causes.

Obviously, serious mistakes
were made early in his life

by you or probably by his mother.

You dare to impugn señora pardo?!

No, no, Dr. Diver didn't
mean it that way, I assure you.

What he meant was... now, now,

señor pardo is a sophisticated man.

He can understand that
the boy's impotence

might have been caused by an
excessive dependency upon his mother.

I desire one quality
in a son: Manhood.

Did you think you'd make a man of him

when you stripped him to
the waist and horsewhipped him

until he had to be sent to a hospital?

I hope any gentleman
who is not degenerate

would have the fortitude to do the same.

Your hostile attitude toward your
son only makes matters more difficult.

Dick! Dick...

He is an intelligent boy,
sensitive and talented.

And if this excessive dependency...

I think you are hardly the one to
talk about excessive dependency,

Dr. Diver.

Just what do you mean by that?

Your habits.
The bottle.

Sophistication? It takes
one of a kind to know one.

And your affection
for my son would indicate

that you may be the same
sort of swine that he is!

You know, I think I'll
beat the hell out of you!

Stop it! Stop it!

Now stop it!

Uh...

I'll be right back.

Dick! For a moment I
thought you would actually...

well, there goes another patient.

Sorry, Franz, it was
inexcusable to lose my head.

Well, Dick, after all,
we are only human, too.

I'll, uh, go and try to save him.

The patient?
Or the customer?

We're about to lose another patient.

The Johnson girl?

How did you know?

She wrote me a letter.

Did she tell you I seduced her?

Well, I had no relations
of any kind with that girl.

Didn't even like her.

Yes, I've been trying to think that.

That's absurd.
She was a mental patient.

I was a mental patient.

Dear god.

Oh, darling.

You must know I didn't
believe a word of it.

Dick!

Please, Dick.

Please.

I-I didn't believe the girl.

I know you had nothing to do with her.

It's just all part
of this miserable place.

I loathe it.

I know.

It's been hard on you, too...

Hasn't it?

Darling.

Oh!

Franz!
Franz.

Hello, Nicole. Dick.

What are you doing
standing here in the gloom?

W-Would you like a drink, Franz?

No. No, thank you.
I want to talk to Dick.

Of course.
See you later, Franz.

You sure you won't join me?

Quite sure.

You don't mind if I have one?

No. Why should I?

Just because some of the patients...

oh, exactly.

No reason for some people to
give up what they regard as food

just because a few neurotics
can't handle it.

Oh, Franz, I want to talk to you

about that new man on the staff,

you know, from Vienna, Lladislov?

Dick, today they took away
the Johnson girl.

Her mother was indignant.
I know.

The girl wrote a letter... to Nicole.

Ah. What happened?

Precisely nothing.

Nicole knows me better than that.

Wonderful.
Nicole is cured.

There is no doubt about that.

Ohh, I am very happy
to have your diagnosis,

Dr. Gregorovius.

And to what do you attribute this cure?

You know very well from where
comes her new ego strength.

Ah, you think it's anaclitic, do you,

this transference of strength
between doctor and patient?

Why are you so bitter, Dick?

Oh, come now, Franz, you can tell me.

What you also mean is that
it has worked in reverse.

What I mean is that Nicole is
no longer dependent on you.

You imply the transference is over,

the counter-transference has begun,

and I am the weak one.

No, I don't mean any offense, Dick.

You know I'm very fond of you and Nicole.

You're impertinent!

And what's more, you're presumptuous!

Nicole is well, as I don't
need you to tell me.

And as far as your
observations are concerned...

oh, let's face it, Franz.

This is no go.

That has occurred to me also.

Your heart is not in this project, Dick.

Correct.
I want to leave.

We'll strike some arrangement
for taking Nicole's money out.

To be perfectly frank with you,
I thought about that also.

I saw this coming.

I have been able
to arrange other backing.

You can take all your money
in a year, maybe.

Fine. As you say.

That's all, Franz.

Oh, darling.

I'll be good tonight.

Make a real chum out of Franz.

Well, you don't have to bother.

We are not going to dine
with the good doctor.

Bully for us!

What happened?

I am through with Zurich.

You resigned?

He's buying us out.

It was his suggestion, not mine.

Well, that's what we wanted.

Isn't it?

Is it?

Now you can be rid of
all this money-grubbing.

You can do what you... what you want,

what you ought to be doing.

Well, what is that?

Well, you...
You can, uh...

You can start your own sanitarium.

I've emptied this one of
patients. Now I can empty my own.

Oh, darling, that's not true.

You can be rid of all these
rich, spoiled neurotics.

You can...

You can take care of people
who really need you.

You can have your own free clinic,

the way you've always dreamed.

Please, darling, don't you see?

This is a blessing in disguise.

You're better than any of them.

You always were, and you always will be.

Just look what you've done for me.

Yes...

There is that, isn't there?

Will you do it, Dick?
Will you?

Well, what will we use for money?

Well, you said Franz was buying us out.

He said it might take a year,

maybe even longer.

And if I have to wait...

we won't wait one day.

And anyway, we've got the experience now.

Oh, we have.

And where will we build this sanitarium?

On the riviera, maybe?

Why not?
That's a wonderful idea!

Just think what it would
mean to the patients

to be in a proper climate
where it's warm and gay!

You know, I was only kidding,

but perhaps you're right.

Oh, but it would take
an awful lot of money.

Well, we'll go to baby.

After all, it is m-my...
our money, darling.

She's only the trustee.

I'll go to see her in Rome.
Tomorrow.

No, if anybody is going to see her,

it's got to be me.
Oh, but I...

no, no. Pride demands that
I beard this lioness alone.

Well, whatever you say, darling.

Oh, won't it be wonderful
to be in the villa Diana again?

I can hardly wait to tell the children.

Now...
What about dinner?

Whatever you say.

Well, let's go downtown.

I feel like painting this whole town...

A permanent bright red.

Why not?

Let's celebrate!

All right, I'll get dressed.

Oh, Dick.

Darling...

Pronto, señorina.

Hello, youngster.

But this is fantastic!
What are you doing here?

I'm making a motion picture.
"The grandeur that was Rome."

But what are you doing here?

Well, I, uh, just got off the train.

Listen, I have a very short day today.

Please call me later.

Miss Warren, one moment.

Don't forget. Miss Warren
for you now, Dr. Diver.

Thank you.

Hello, baby.

Yeah, I just got in
and I can't wait to talk to you.

I'll take a shower and see you
in about an hour.

Hmm? It's ten minutes of eight.

Eight?!

Call me about eleven, hmm?

Yeah, sure.

Ohh...

It's good to hear your nice
articulate voice again, Dick.

Well, I admit that
300,000 is a lot of money.

But it could turn out to be
a fine investment, too, baby.

Oh, now, come on, Dick.

With blue chip stocks
going up five points a day,

don't talk to me about a mental
clinic being an investment.

Well, then, from a financial
standpoint, I can't win.

Anything I do is bound to be
a drop in the bucket.

But that doesn't change the fact that
this kind of a clinic is needed, baby.

But Nicole is cured now, isn't she?

But baby, psychiatry
is my career, my profession.

My dear brother-in-law,
you've done your stuff.

Now she's well.

Done my stuff?

Surely with Nicole well now
you don't expect her

to have a lifetime full of
sanitariums and psychiatrists.

I'm a psychiatrist, baby.
Remember?

Yes, I remember.

And the bargain we made in Switzerland.

What bargain?
We made no bargain.

I married Nicole because
I loved her. I still love her.

Then why don't you
think about her for a change?

Oh, don't think we're not
grateful for all you've done,

and we know you've had a hard time,

but now that you've fulfilled
your part of the bargain...

you don't listen, baby. Like a
lot of rich women, you don't listen!

I love Nicole.
She is my entire life.

But my life would be nothing
either without my work.

You think you'd be happier
with somebody else?

Me?
Are you crazy?

Or maybe I'm going crazy myself at last.

Oh, now, come on, Dick,

you're a charming man and
you still have beautiful manners.

There's been too much beautiful manners.

You're right, Dick. You've
always had a fatal desire to please,

but from what I hear
that went on in Zurich,

you don't quite please as you used to.

Did Nicole ever say that?

Nicole would be incapable of
saying anything bad about you.

But you know, I should think
you would just jump at the chance

of leaving clinics and enjoying life,

but apparently there still is some
middle class puritan thing somewhere.

You don't seem quite able to
embrace the pleasant side of life today.

Why don't you settle down with
nice, well-balanced, sane people?

Oh, you yourself would have
great success in London,

and probably some wild romance
with some duchess.

Dick?

Dick?

Well.

A little more grown up...

A little more beautiful.

And you look much better
than this morning.

I was just having some coffee.
Would you like some?

Now, don't go putting me
on the defensive.

Coffee? No.

No, I would like whiskey,

because I have been drinking whiskey.

You know, the first drink
I ever had was with you.

Do you regret it?

Today seems like a
promising day for regrets.

Ooh. Ooh. No, no.

Don't you know I've gone into
a process of deterioration?

No. In fact, you've always been the
ideal by which I've judged other men.

Ah, but at first it didn't show.

You see, the manner remains intact

for a long time after the decay starts.

Excuse me.

Hello? Bruno?

Si.

Si. Oh, non, non a possible.

Who's that, young Mussolini? Oh, shush!

Bruno? Si...

Si, domani.

Si, caro, domani.

You're not annoyed?

Me? No, I can't
afford to be.

You see, I expect
nourishment from people now.

Well, you should, Dick.
You give so much of yourself.

And I haven't finished.
Now, take you...

excuse me.

Hello?

Yes.

Yes. Meet me downstairs
in the bar.

Yeah, the entrance to the hotel lobby.

Bye.

Dick...

Did you come here to make love to me,

or just to find out if I still
wanted to make love to you?

The latter, now that I think of it.

Well...

Kiss me and I'll tell you.

I never could have believed
that kissing you

could remind me of how very
much I love somebody else.

Oh, thank you.
That's charming.

Well, when you kiss me,

doesn't it remind you
of how much you love Nicole?

Or pretended to?

Get out!

Get out!!!

Dr. Diver.
Hi, there.

Hi, there, diver.

The last person I expected
to run into in Rome was you.

Hello. Mind if I join ya? Collis Clay.

No, no, why not?
Any old port in a storm.

Thank you.
Sit down.

What'll you have?

Bourbon and water, please.
Yes, sir.

You know who's here?

Hmm. "The grandeur
that was Rome."

Have you seen her?

I was just up in her room.

Were you, now?
Just... Up...

I was now just... uh.

Maybe I ought to go back to Atlanta.

I hear she's been tying
these Roman boys up in bags,

and now you.

You know, I don't know why
you ever left Atlanta.

Think I'm gonna spend twenty
years sittin' in my daddy's office?

You too good for it?

Well, now, I don't notice
you killin' yourself.

Why don't you practice as a
doctor if you like to work so much?

You know, you got a point there, boy.

And as long as
your daddy foots the bills...

that's better than your wife
payin' 'em, where I come from.

Now, don't go too far, Sonny boy.

You know something else?
If I lived off my wife,

I'd be too scared to two-time
her, even with Rosemary Hoyt.

Stand up.

You must be kiddin', diver.

I said stand up!!!

Please! Please!
Gentlemen!

Oh!

Dick, what do you think you're doing?

What is this all about?

Mostly it was about you.

Take me someplace else.
This is bad publicity.

Ahoy there!

Where's baby?

Miss Warren is in the counting house,

counting out her money.

Oh.

I thought it would be better
if we had our reunion alone.

She'll be along later.

How was the trip?

I was practically in irons.

I didn't care. I wanted
to be home with you.

I gather you accomplished rather a lot

during your short stay.

I'm sorry.

But if it's of any interest,

baby turned me down before,
not after, the fracas.

I'm sorry you went to baby.

It was my idea, but it was a mistake.

I should never have
put you in that position.

I insisted on it.

Rosemary looked very fetching
in the newspapers.

Yes, I saw her for less
than ten minutes, all told.

That was quick. Now,
look, if you believe...

I didn't.

Come on, here's the car.

How are the children?

Well, I...

I sent them away for the day.

Oh? Why?

I didn't know what condition you'd be in.

Yeah.

Yeah, I see what you mean.

They can be back tomorrow.

Thank you.
I'd like that very much.

Say, by the way, would you drive?

I feel a bit rocky all of a sudden.

Home...

Beautiful land and sea.

It was the best, wasn't it?

Yes, Dick, it was.

It was the best.

Funny thing...

This might not have been
a bad place for a clinic.

With the right man.

So what do we do now, Dick?

Well, um, how about dinner for two...

On the terrace, with an
ice-cold bottle of chablis?

I mean what do we do
for the rest of our lives?

Oh.

Yes, I see what you mean.

Well, I don't quite know what to say.

Except I love you very much.

Baby!
Tommy!

You heavenly creature!

It seems like years.
It I years.

I've never been so happy to see anyone.

What infernal regions did you come from?

The Congo.
The Congo?

Have you seen Nicole yet? Is she here?

She's up there on the deck.
Go surprise her. Go.

Tommy?

What's the matter? Am
I such a ghost? It's me.

Well...

Well, no, but I...

I was thinking about you
that very second!

I-I was even writing you a letter!

How is... how is everybody?

Oh, the children are fine.
Dick's back from Rome.

Yes, I heard about Rome.
Was he hurt?

No, not physically.

He's out there on the water
somewhere now,

with his play clothes on.

Ride 'em cowboy!

Hey! Hi!

Hi, Dick!

Faster! Faster!

Why? Why does he
have to show off?

Look at the idiot.
He'll break his neck!

He's been breaking it
for years, hasn't he?

That's enough, Dick!

Tommy's here!

Hello, Tommy!

Hello, Dick!

Ha ha ha!

Hang on, Dr. Diver,
we'll tow you in.

Okay!

I think we'd better go down and get him.

You were doing wonderfully,
Dr. Diver, until you skidded!

Ah... good to see you,
Tommy boy! Ha ha!

Hey, who's for a French '75?

Dick, you go straight below.

Take a hot shower and have a rest.

See, Tommy?
I got her well trained.

Fingers never idle, distaff flying.

Please.

Oh, Tommy, Tommy.

I feel many things falling away.

Dick's not in condition, that's all.

Oh, stop your eternal gallantry.

He drinks too much.
Make him stop.

Me tell Dick what
he should or shouldn't do?

Ha! That would be a twist.

Anyway, it's a little late for that.

I didn't know you smoked.

I didn't.

I don't know what to do.

I don't much care.

Or maybe I do.

I don't want to talk about it.

You have to.
And face up to it.

And I'm the one who's
going to see that you do.

I've loved you for a long time, Nicole.

More each time.

I'm frightened, Tommy.

But I can't hurt Dick. I've
loved him too much for that.

It's not his fault that I had a crazy,
mixed-up concept of what he was.

But you were ill.

And I'd still be ill
if it weren't for him.

I'd have spent the rest
of my life in hospitals.

For his sake as well as yours,

whatever is done must be done now.

Simply decide what to do and do it.

I-I don't know if
I can feel love anymore.

Do you want to go ashore?

I said good night to the children.

I'm going for a walk on the beach.

I want to think about why
I've been so slow to see

that what is happening...

Started to happen,
fall apart, a long time ago.

It's so easy to miss the moment when
the most important thing in life changes.

You think I've failed you,
don't you, Dick?

You?

On the contrary, you're a great success.

One of those people who are
made to work well in this world.

Dick, I...

I can't say what I want to say.

Well, then don't.

It's lonely being together
now, isn't it, Nicole?

That's it over there.

Wait for me at the cafe
des allies. And don't worry.

Dick, I want to talk with you.

All right.

Will you come with me, please?

As soon as my haircut is finished.

Nicole is waiting.

The cafe des allies.

Apres vous, monsieur.

Nicole?

Citron presse.

Tommy?
Whiskey, avec siphon.

Cafe.

Well, now, this is homey.

It's plain that your marriage
to Nicole has run its course.

Oh, may I have a cigarette, please?

I'm here only to say things which Nicole
would find too distressing to say herself.

Just what is it you find
so distressing to say?

Nicole wants a divorce.

For how many years have
you waited to tell me that?

Very many.

Well, since this is an open discussion,

shall we ask our good friend here

his opinion on the general
problems of divorce? Hmm?

Can't you at least try
to meet this with decency?

Oh ho ho.
What a question.

All Nicole asks from you now
is an agreement in principle.

There'll be dozens of details.

Oh, dozens.
Dozens.

Tommy, shut up.
Both of you!

Listen to me, Dick.
We're not happy.

You'd don't really care anymore,
it's just a habit.

Well, then...

I don't know what you two
are going to do about it all,

but I am going to finish my haircut.

Pay the check, Tommy.

Well, that's over.

Our lawyers in New York
will handle everything.

What did he say?

Actually, it was easier than I thought.

We had quite a long talk, and he
won't take anything, not one cent.

What did you expect?

I must say he was fair enough.

Dick has always been fair.

Well, anyway, the sooner he
leaves the house, the better.

This is his home, baby.

And these are his children, too.

When a person is taken out of his depth

he's apt to drown
in one liquid or another.

Dick was a good husband to me.

And he always did his best
never to let anything hurt me.

Of course, darling, but that's
what he was educated for.

If you don't mind, I'd like to
say good-bye to Nicole alone.

Of course.

Did you see the children?

Not yet.

Dick, if you... if you'd like...

for their sake, well, to stay on,

e-even keep up the marriage...

no, it'd be bad for the children.

They'll be better off with you.

They adore you!

Things could never
be the same, it's true,

but we could have a
marriage of sorts, I suppose.

It'd be no worse
than it is with other people.

But we're not other people,
Nicole; We're better than that.

Are we?

Are we, Dick?

Maybe that's what's been
the trouble with us:

Thinking we're better than other people.

I know now that I'm not.

And I know that I...
I was unfair to you.

I built you up in my mind
to some kind of a god.

Vanished, didn't he?

Madame.

Monsieur, the taxi is here.

Merci, Jeanne.

Dick, why are you taking a taxi?

Take one of the cars.

No, thanks.

I'll say good-bye to the children.

Can we pretend to them I'm
just going away for a while?

Of course, Dick.

When does your train leave?

Twelve-fifteen.

By no means...

One of the worst times of the day.

Has he gone?

Yes.

He's gone.

I wonder if Dick has any plans.

I asked him.
At first he said no,

and then he mentioned someplace
in upper New York State.

I don't know whether
he meant practicing there

or getting a job or what.

Some small town, he said.

Glenn falls.
He was born there.

Yes, that's it.
Near there.

Those little towns can be nice.

I wouldn't be surprised if he ended
up in that section of the country,

one town or another.

Nicole...

I suggest you let well enough alone.

Nicole.

Don't take advantage again.

What do you mean?

His weakness.
His love for you.

Don't you see that his last hope,

his only salvation,
is to get away from you.
