Miss Green, memorandum, effective all departments.

Today, March first.

Mr. Donald Bradley Jr. will represent me

as Executive Assistant to the President of the Corporation.

He is to have complete charge of all ships.

Wasn't the Atlantic supposed to sail last night?

Yes, sir, but the captain got married and--

What's marriage got to do with business?

See that the Atlantic sails immediately. Get another captain.

Well, but all our captains are at sea just now,

and you know we're not allowed to hire outside men.

Get another captain. Get Jensen.

Jensen, sir?

You mean to tell me you never heard of Jensen?

No, sir. Is he employed by us?

Jensen is the finest captain in the fleet,

and I want Jensen to sail as captain of the Atlantic today, understand?

Yes, sir.

What's all the row about, Donald?

You're not on a ship, yelling at a crew.

Would you mind revolutionizing this business a little more quieter?

Yes, sir.

Take a letter.

"Element Salt Mines, Bombay, gentlemen..."

I beg your pardon. I keep forgetting I'm not at sea.

- That's all right. - Take a letter, if you don't mind.

"Element Salt Mines, Bombay, gentlemen...

as per our agreement of January the 12th, I hereby notify you..."

"...and though we are exceedingly gratified

by the marked improvement in our business during the last few weeks,

it is the purpose of this organization

to protect the best interest of its members,

and it is, therefore, resolved

that those companies who continue the suicidal practice of price cutting

will be expelled from the advantages of membership."

That's all, Miss Roberts.

Good work, Donald.

That's satisfactory to us, Bradley.

However, there are a few details I'd like to talk to you about.

Suppose we have dinner together tonight?

I'm sorry, Mr. Franklin. I have another engagement.

I know how it is, but this is business.

- Think you better go, Donald. - All right, Mr. Franklin.

- See you later, Franklin. - Yes. Eight o'clock at the house?

That blond baby of yours going to be there?

Sure.

Please ring 4233.

Welcome home, Miss Hall.

- Is anyone here at all? - No, not at all. All day.

That's the telephone, is it, Annie?

Yes, ma'am.

That may be Don. I told him to call me here.

- Hello? - Oh, Billy.

How can I take you coat off if you won't stand still?

Yes, Don. Yes, she's here. Just a moment.

- It's Don, Joan. - I'm coming.

- I'm coming. - Well, come on then.

- Hello, Donny. - Hello, Donny.

Oh, but we had tickets for the theater.

I know, Donny, but you promised.

Oh, I'm sorry, too. It isn't your fault.

Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow night, surely.

All right, Donny. Goodbye.

Why don't you two get married?

You never see each other anyhow.

Oh. No, no, honey.

I know it's terrible, but it isn't Donny's fault.

It's just-- Oh, I don't know.

Here, mind if I take this?

It's life. That's what it is. Life.

Take Bill and me, for instance.

It's so late when he gets home at night, I'm in bed asleep,

so he doesn't put the lights on in the bedroom.

In the morning, when he gets up, it's so early, it's still dark.

Why, I haven't seen Bill in years.

At least you have this.

When Don and I are married, we'll have one.

Oh, I want a baby more than anything else in the world.

Except maybe Donny himself.

Come to mother, darling. You've gotta have your nap.

I love the night,

and I love to sleep all day,

and love to stay up all night.

- Must be very late. - Yes.

- It's one o'clock. - Oh!

Just beginning.

Nat, it's getting late. Take me home.

Nat, it's very late.

I'm sorry to interrupt you, but...

if you and Mr. Bradley have finished your business--

Shush!

This is business.

And cute, too.

Do you see that? What's with her?

- Old man Jackson, isn't it? - Mm-hm.

Now, you can see for yourself

that that cute little prick could close the Green Star Line.

See you later.

Well, I liked that.

Hello, folks.

Mind if I intrude a little bit and sit here?

How you been, Jackson?

Warm for spring, isn't it?

- Is it? - Yeah. Well, maybe not.

Let it go.

- It's a nice night, though, isn't it? - Yes, it is.

Yes, it certainly is.

It's a nice night, all right.

Warm, but still, it's nice.

I'm sorry.

I don't mean to be rude, really.

I suppose I'm a terrible sap.

You see, I don't quite know what I'm doing here.

Neither do I.

- Let's dance. - Come on.

So, I grabs a hand grenade in one hand

and a bayonet in the other,

and I says to the boys, "Charge."

So we ran and we ran.

Pretty soon, we came to a village.

And imagine my embarrassment

when I found we have been charging the wrong way.

Well, that's very funny. Isn't it, Rosie?

- So, you didn't want to come? - No.

- Neither did I. - Well, then why did you?

- For the same reason. - Business?

- Uh-huh. - Nat?

I don't like it any better than you do.

Hey, you two. Come on, hurry up.

- What is it? - Big business.

Hello, everybody. Here's my friends.

Well, we're all going over to my house.

- Aren't we, Rosie? - Uh-huh.

Come on, then. Get your baby, huh?

- What sort of a place is this? - This is my house.

- You mean you live here? - Of course.

- What kind of a place did you think it is? - I thought it was a speakeasy.

Oh, excuse me.

Will you pardon me?

Who are these people?

I don't know.

The funny part of it is, Jackson doesn't know either.

- Aren't they friends of his? - No.

Well, this is his house. How did they get here?

Who are they, anyway?

I've often wondered.

They're just the people you see at parties.

Come on, baby. Let's you and me go places.

What's the idea of having a party for people you don't even know?

Well, for that matter, who are you?

I don't know. Who are you?

I haven't the slightest idea.

Say, I like you.

You're young.

Really young, and--

Well, young.

Not like Nat and the others.

Well, I like you, too.

Look!

Well, that's that.

Donald, it looks like you'll have to take me home.

- All right. - But I don't want to go home.

- Neither do I. - Swell! Let's go places.

Let's go places.

- I'm having a swell time. - Ah, me too.

- Where do we go from here? - Oh, I don't know.

- Let's go places. - Waiter!

Yes, sir.

Thank you, sir.

- I beg your pardon. - Oh, it's all right,

Donny old boy.

Too bad.

It's no use.

What are we gonna do?

Wait a minute. I've got an idea.

Well, that was a close shave.

- I think we need a little drink. - Mm, where is it?

- I'll get it. - Ooh, right over there, but I'll get it.

- Well, let's both get it. - Swell.

Thank you.

- Didn't we have a swell time? - Uh-huh.

- Well, here's to you. - Here's to you.

Here's to you and me.

Good night.

Donald.

This is Station WKB signing off at 3:00 a.m.

We'll be on the air again at 9:00 a.m.

It's your play, Don. We're waiting for you.

What's the matter with you tonight?

Nothing.

- What's the trump, dear? - No trump, darling.

No trump at all.

"I shouldn't have played," that's your line.

No, darling. We're only down four.

Oh, well. I'm sick of bridge anyhow.

So am I.

What is it, Donny?

Nothing, I said.

- Leave me alone. - Never mind, Joan.

If you want to see a real fight, wait till after you get married.

Yeah.

By the way...

I should say it was about time you two were getting married

if you're ever going to be.

- Why? - Oh, never mind.

Only you two love each other as much as I think you do,

why the stalling?

Of course, as a friend, it's none of my business.

But as a family physician, I don't think it's such a good idea.

Joan, why do you insist upon waiting so long?

But why, Bill? What possible difference could it make?

Maybe none. Maybe it might make a lot of difference.

- I don't see how. - Bill's right.

Why, Donny, we wanted to be married in the spring, didn't we?

We should've been married long ago.

I didn't think it meant that much to you.

We kidded a lot about the date. I don't know why,

but I never dreamed it mattered that much to you.

If it didn't matter to me, I wouldn't want to marry you.

I'm sorry, Joan.

Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned it.

What do you mean "maybe"?

I'll take you home before you say something else you shouldn't.

All right.

- Good night, Don. - Good night, old man.

Come along. You'll get over it.

Yeah, you have to come over our house sometime.

We'll put a real one on for you.

Well, doctor, what do you suppose is the matter with these two?

- It's a very serious case. - Oh, I was afraid of that.

Yes, I'm afraid it's love.

No, not that.

- Night, Donny! - Good night, Don.

- Good night. - Good night, guys.

Oh, Donny.

Donny, what's happened to us?

You're so far away.

- I know. - But you've never been like this before.

Something's happened. Something's come between us.

I can't-- I can't reach you.

Bill was right.

He may have been kidding,

but he was right when he said we should've been married long ago.

- If we had, this never would've happened. - What, Don?

I don't care what it is if you'd only tell me.

I can't.

Is there...

Do you love someone else?

Oh, if something's come between us, it's my fault, too.

Oh, I've been silly and stupid.

Must've seemed to you that that June wedding was more important to me

than your love.

Oh, if anything's happened, it's my fault, too.

But you don't understand.

- You must care-- - Oh, it doesn't matter.

But I want you to know.

Listen, Joan.

Last night, at that stupid party,

I met a girl named...

Elise Cooper.

Do you love her?

- No, but that doesn't make any difference. - Oh, it does, it does.

- But I want you to know. - No.

If you love me, that's all that matters, Donny.

- Do you still? - Yes, Joan.

More than ever.

I know that so surely now.

- Sure? - You know I do.

Oh, then, what are we waiting for?

Don't you realize we're wasting time?

Oh, don't stand there like that. We're growing older every minute.

- Come on, hurry up. - Where are you taking me?

Never mind, get your hat and coat.

- Listen, woman. Where are you taking me? - Three guesses.

I might make it in one, but I'd hate to be wrong.

- Right the first time. - Then you are kidnapping me?

- Mm-hm. - That's pretty swell.

I don't know why I ever thought of a June wedding.

- Eloping's much nicer. - Oh, but I can't go.

It's impossible. I haven't a thing to wear.

So well?

I...

- I beg your pardon. - It's quite all right.

I was just about to mention, Mr. Bradley, that I love you very much.

And I love you, Mrs. Bradley.

I, William Jones,

justice in the peace of Marion County,

pronounce you man and wife.

And that will be, uh, two dollars.

You may kiss the bride.

Kiss the bride, uh, that is if you want to. It's customary.

And that'll be two dollars.

And you put on that wide open. The people will be here soon.

Yes'm.

Is y'all gonna have many of these house warmings?

I hope not.

- So do I. - Hurry up, Joan. I'll help you.

Darling, you must hurry, you mustn't be late.

- Who cares? - Nobody.

Happy, Mrs. Bradley?

Happy, Mr. Bradley.

Oh, Donny.

According to our reports from the Naples traffic manager,

the total tonnage for the last two months is equal to the quota of last year.

Hey, Donald.

Let's quit business early and go for little game of golf.

Aren't you ever going to settle down? Just a playboy, that's all you are.

- Sure, come on. - You go ahead.

I have to save the business again this afternoon.

Besides, I promised Joan I'd be home early.

So look here, young fella.

If you ever want to get along in the world,

don't ever take business seriously.

Give my love to Joan.

See you later!

All right, father.

Hello?

Oh, hello.

No, I'm sorry. I can't possibly get away.

But you must!

You don't understand.

I've got to see you right away.

No, I can't tell you over the phone.

You must come! You've got to!

What is it? What's happened?

She tried to kill herself. Poison.

She's all right now, but we have to watch her every minute.

Don't come near me. Don't touch me.

What-What is it?

Well, why did you send for me?

Is there something I can do for you?

How can I help?

You know, I'm married now, and--

I know.

What is it?

What's happened to you?

Oh, it isn't only me.

That's the awful part of it.

It isn't only me.

But you, too.

Listen, Don.

You must believe that I didn't know.

I swear I didn't know.

Oh, you won't believe me, but it's the truth.

I didn't know.

What do you mean?

- You're married now, aren't you? - Yes.

- You're happy now, aren't you? - Yes.

I can't understand you.

I'm trying to tell you.

So horrible.

I don't know how to say it.

Don, that night you were here...

you must believe that I didn't know then.

You must understand that Nat and I were...

were friends...

that he came here often.

- You understand? - Yes.

That's all I wanted to tell you.

Now, get out.

Get out! Leave me alone!

You fool! You stupid fool!

Can't you understand?

I told you there was something wrong with Nat.

Now, I've got it. Oh, yes, I've got it.

There's no doubt about that.

And for all I know, I've passed it on to you.

You and your little wife.

Now, do you understand?

I don't believe you.

You hear me? I don't believe you.

You're lying to me.

A thing like that couldn't happen to me.

It's impossible.

It just couldn't.

You're lying.

She's dead.

Find Doctor Caldwell and ask him to come up right away.

And give me police headquarters.

How long have you known this girl?

Come on, you've been going out with her.

How long have you known her?

You can save yourself a lot of trouble if you tell us now.

Come on. How long have you known this girl?

Extra, extra! Extra, extra!

Read all about it!

Ship owner's son involved in suicide!

Extra! Extra!

You must tell us.

Tell us. What happened?

We must know, Donald.

Please, Donny.

After all, I'm your mother.

You must tell me.

I cannot understand how a nephew of mine could ever get mixed up in such a scandal.

- Really-- - Oh, please, Aunt Sylvia.

He'll tell us if you'll only let him.

Don't you see we're only trying to help you?

After all, Donny, you must tell us...

We're of your own flesh and blood.

Oh, he'll tell me. I know he will.

If there's anything we can do, he'll tell me.

If you don't mind, I'd like to talk to Donny alone.

All right, Joan.

We'll run along, Donald.

If there's anything you want to tell us or anything we can do,

I'll be waiting at home.

Good night, Donny.

- Good night, father. - Good night, Joan.

- Good night, mother. - Good night.

Good night.

Donny, did you love her?

Oh, I'm just trying to understand. That's all.

Don't you see? I've got to understand.

Sure, I loved her. What about it?

- Well, what are you going to do about it? - Nothing.

- What is there to do? - I don't care what you do.

But I'm through, see?

I'm going away somewhere.

I don't know where.

- But I'm going alone, do you understand? - Darling, what are you saying?

Might as well understand it once and for all.

I don't love you anymore.

Maybe I never did.

Anyhow, I'm through now, and I'm going.

Ridiculous. Preposterous.

Nothing to it at all.

Why, my boy, you are as well as I am.

You're all right, I tell you.

You have nothing to worry about. It's a false alarm. Forget it.

I say you're all right.

You're sure?

Absolutely.

That'll be a hundred dollars.

You're not kidding me?

You wouldn't do that.

- You're sure? - Of course I am.

Gee, I'm glad.

Oh, what a relief.

Thanks, doctor.

- Well, I want to get home. - Just a moment.

- One hundred dollars, please. - Oh, of course, doctor.

I-I-I'm sorry, I...

I'm so relieved, I guess I forgot what I was doing.

Thanks, doctor. I can't tell you what this means to me.

A-A hundred dollars seems so cheap.

It's worth more, I...

I want to get home.

But Donald wouldn't do a thing like that.

He'll come back.

Of course he will.

Well, I don't care.

I won't see him.

Oh, I don't care if I ever see him again.

Joan darling...

Oh, hello, Donald.

We knew you'd come back all right.

Come on, tell us what it's all about.

Will you forgive me, Joan?

I didn't know what I was saying last night,

but I didn't mean it.

Bawl me out, if you want.

Do anything you like.

I know I deserve it.

But I didn't mean a thing.

Please try to forget all about it.

Oh, I can't.

How can I?

Joan, you must take my word for it.

I didn't go there, because I was in love with that girl.

I never saw her after that night.

Come on, Joan.

Forget about it, Joan. It's life, that's what it is.

And the woman always pays.

And pays and pays.

- And pays. - Joan.

- Oh, Joan, I'm starved. - Yeah, when are you gonna feed us?

- Well, come on. - Come on.

I'll bet there isn't anything to eat.

Oh yeah? Well, I'm gonna lead the way anyway.

Darling?

Darling?

Oh, Donny, are you asleep?

- Yes. - Oh, don't fall asleep.

I have something to tell you.

Oh, it's something wonderful.

I wasn't going to tell you, but it's so wonderful, that...

Darling, are you awake?

No.

Hello?

Is Joan there?

At this time of night? Where do you think she is?

Oh, I'm sorry if I woke you up, Mr. Bradley,

but ask Joan if it's all right if-if I take a bath?

It's all right with me.

You see, I'm an expectant mother, but I forgot about it.

So please ask Joan if it's all right,

because, well, you see, I've already taken the bath.

- It's that nitwit friend of yours, Marie. - What does she want?

- She says she's expecting. - I know.

She's told me that a million times.

- What about it? - Expecting twins.

She says she forgot about it and took a bath.

She wants to know if you think she'll live through it.

Donny, stop it. She didn't say anything of the kind.

She did.

Well, tell her it's all right, not to worry.

Hello, Mrs. Martin.

Joan says it's all right about the bath.

But telephoning people in the middle of the night is bad.

Good night.

People calling you up in the middle of the night.

Darling, she's frightened.

Her husband's away, and the doctor's worried her condition.

What did she call you for?

What do you know about babies, hm?

- A lot. - Mm.

- Pretty nice, this marriage business. - Mm-hmm.

- Donny? - Hm?

- Want to hear my secret? - Mm-hmm.

Oh, Joan, please don't kid me.

- I'm sleepy. - But it's true.

Honest?

Congratulate me. I'm going to be a father.

- Congratulations, my boy. - Thank you, mother.

- What's the matter? - I'm going to be a father.

Congratulations!

My, aren't we the powdered pigeon?

All puffed up.

I know, but you'll get over it.

Oh, my dear boy. I'm so glad.

- Yes? - Dr. Hall is here.

Oh, all right. Ask him to come in, please.

Hello, Bill. How are you? Sit down.

I'm awfully busy. I'll be with you in a minute.

Donald, I want you to come downtown with me.

What for?

Listen, it's very important, or I wouldn't have come.

What is it? What's happened?

Joan! Bill, is Joan all right?

Yes, she's all right, except... I think you better come along.

Oh, what is it? What's happened to her? Tell me, tell me!

Now, there's nothing to be upset about. We can talk it all over in the car.

But I don't understand, why did you come up here for me...

Bill, you must tell me. What's happened to her?

- Has there been an accident? Has she-- - No.

Well then, what is it? Where is she?

Where are you taking me?

Have you ever heard of Dr. Vincent Leonard?

I don't know. I guess so.

- He's a specialist of some kind, isn't he? - Yeah, a very famous one.

Donny, I sent Joan to see him. I want you to see him, too.

He has consented to see you at the clinic instead of at his office.

Why do you suppose I insisted upon you having a physical examination last week?

I don't know.

You said everyone should have one at least once a year.

Yeah, but there was another reason.

- Bill. - Joan has been under my care.

I discovered that she has an infection.

Bill!

What do you mean?

Where is she?

Your wife is here,

but before you see her...

I want to talk to you.

- I'm going to have to ask-- - Doctor, I-I want to see her.

I must see her.

- Don't you understand? I'm worried. - She's all right, Donald.

Well then, why are we here?

I don't believe you. I want to see her for myself.

I must talk to you first.

It's a matter that requires immediate attention.

You must understand

that I'm required to make a rather searching inquiry.

I must ask you whether or not you ever had any indication

that you're suffering from an infectious disease.

Why do you ask that?

Dr. Hall has discovered that you're suffering

from a very serious blood condition.

A venereal disease.

And... Joan?

I'm afraid so.

Oh, it isn't true.

It can't be true.

Joan, too?

It isn't possible.

I'm afraid it's true.

You must understand that these things happen

without any very obvious symptoms.

Donald, how far did that affair with Elise Cooper go?

She killed herself, because she was diseased.

Was that the reason you couldn't tell Joan about it at the time?

Is there any possibility

that you might've contracted the disease from this girl?

You don't understand.

You see, she sent for me afterwards to tell me.

She hadn't known anything about it at the time.

When she found out about it, she sent for me.

Why didn't you tell me?

I was afraid to.

I didn't want you to know.

Well, anyhow, what difference does it make?

- I went to a doctor. - Who was he?

I don't know. Hortonn, I think his name was.

I know. One of these advertising specialists.

I've heard that story before.

Others have been to him and the fakers like him.

I'm sorry, Bradley, but there can be no doubt about our tests.

I don't believe you!

You're mistaken.

You see, he told me. He was so sure about it.

Why should he be wrong?

He said I was all right.

He told me there was nothing to worry about.

I don't care what you say. Do you hear me? I don't care what you say.

He said I was all right.

I'm sorry, Donald.

Well, why shouldn't I believe him as much as I do you? Can't you be wrong?

I believe him. Do you hear me?

Now, Donald, listen.

You don't realize what you're up against.

You don't realize how serious this thing is.

But I'm not going to treat it as I would an ordinary case.

I've known your father for years.

I don't usually do these things,

but before I tell you what can be done,

I want you to know, I want you to see for yourself,

I want you to realize what you're up against.

Come on, Donald.

Oh, hi, Browns.

This is a case of locomotor ataxia.

The disease was contracted years ago.

Incidentally, there's no doubt that it was taken innocently, too.

Playing bridge one night at a friend's house, he borrowed a pipe.

The friend, of course, was already infected.

Oh, excuse me, doctor.

Here's a curious coincidence.

This infection was contracted innocently, too.

Years ago through a kiss.

The primary sore was neglected for a cold sore

and treatment was neglected.

See the shape he's in now.

Not so innocent.

He'd been with a streetwalker.

This poor woman has been suffering for years

from what she thought was rheumatism.

We took a blood test, and it was positive.

See that woman?

This is a shocking case.

She's had seven children.

Here.

Didn't know she was infected until she took a blood test.

We checked up on the children.

One of them is dead, but of the six living,

one of them is partially blind and deaf,

one deaf and dumb, one crippled, one an idiot.

The fifth, mentally defective,

and the 18-months-old baby is also syphilitic.

All right, bring her in here.

Just what happened? What happened?

Nothing serious, folks. Just a sick lady.

Joan.

She'll be all right in a moment.

She's all right, Donald. She just fainted.

She'll be all right in a few moments.

I'm sorry, Donald,

but I had to make you realize just how serious this thing is.

But now that you do know,

I want you to realize that there's still hope.

It's been neglected too long,

but tomorrow, we start a course of treatments.

Both you and your wife must continue with these treatments regularly

for a period of about two years,

at the end of which time, I think I can safely say you'll both be cured.

And moreover, as far as the child's concerned,

fortunately, we caught the case early enough,

and that it's vitally important, for the sake of the child,

that Mrs. Bradley's treatment should start as soon as possible.

And if they're continued regularly,

why, there's every assurance

that your child will be born normal and healthy.

You see, Donald, you're going to be all right.

I feel for that boy.

After all, if he slipped once...

Still, he's not like many of them that are only getting what they asked for.

- And that poor girl. - Yeah.

It's bad enough on him, but it's terrible for her.

And I see so many like them.

I'm not so sure it isn't just as bad for him now.

He feels the responsibility terribly,

with her in that hysterical condition, pregnant.

Bill, I can cure that young couple physically, I think,

but I'm afraid for him.

They're so likely to lose faith with the world they thought was beautiful

and with each other.

They're young and sensible.

Watch them carefully, Bill.

Yes, I will, doctor.

I'm terribly worried.

I don't know whether or not they can pull through.

Mentally, I mean.

I'll do the best I can.

Thanks, Doctor.

Come on, you two. Let's go.

Come on, snap out of it. Everything's going to be all right.

What are you worrying about?

- Bye. - Goodbye.

Bye, Doctor.

Take it easy, Joan.

It's all right. I'm all right.

Of course it'll take a long time.

You heard what Dr. Leonard said, but you'll be all right.

Just try to forget about it.

That's the thing to do, try not to think about it.

Are you all right now, Joan?

Hello, Joan.

Hello, Joan.

Hello, Billy.

Got a kiss?

Billy.

Oh, I'm sorry, Joan. I'm terribly sorry.

I didn't mean... But you see...

Hello, Joan.

I want Joan.

Come on, sonny. Off to bed with you.

Let's go, Donny.

Good night, Laura.

Good night.

Hello, Donny!

Uh, you don't remember me, Donny?

You have forgotten Captain Olaf Jensen?

No, of course not.

- Joan, this is Captain Jensen. - How do you do, missus?

Uh, see, I have-- I brought you something.

And you too, missus.

I bought it... last trip on the boat.

But it's meant for you, Donny.

No. I-It's not meant for you.

It's meant for the-- for the missus.

Uh, no, missus, it's-it's not for you neither.

It's-It's meant for the little fellow when he comes.

Thank you.

Thanks, Jensen.

It's beautiful.

W-Well, I-I'll just get going now.

Uh, they got the boat tied up in such a funny place.

Uh, I think they call it Brooklyn, I think.

I don't know whether I'd find it again.

Uh, well, goodbye, uh, Donny.

Uh, see you at your-- at the office, maybe.

- Uh, anyhow, I'll see you sometime again. - Yeah, sure.

- Goodbye, captain. - Goodbye.

Uh, goodbye, missus.

Go to sleep, Donny.

No, Donny. No, don't!

Don't, please!

No, Donny. No.

Donny!

Don't! No!

Joan, are you mad? What are you doing?

What else is there?

Oh, Joan, we can't.

Oh, what have we got to lose?

We have everything. We have each other.

No, it isn't enough.

We're dead inside.

This horrible thing has killed us.

It isn't true.

We're going to be all right. The doctor assured me that we would.

Oh, what does it matter whether our bodies live or not?

But we're going to be all right. Two years, Joan, that's all.

That isn't so long.

No.

And the baby will be all right, too.

But how can we live with this doubt between us?

Despised by people, despising each other.

- But we don't. - Oh, we will. How can we forget it?

We have to. We have to try to live as if nothing has happened.

Oh, how can we?

You know what it would be like to live without ever being able to laugh again?

There's nothing else we can do.

Joan, we must try.

Hello?

Oh, it's that fool woman again.

Hello?

Oh, Joan, I'm so frightened.

I'm afraid something terrible has happened.

What is it?

Well, today the doctor told me my baby should be born next week.

And I was so happy, I went out with Eddie to dinner...

and I forgot.

Oh, Joan, do you think it'll be all right?

I've forgotten.

Well, what happened? What'd you do?

I ate pickles.

Hello? Hello, Marie?

It will be all right.

Did you hear what I heard?

- S-She said... She said she ate... - Pickles!

Oh, Donny.

Donny! I was wrong.

I was terribly wrong.

Oh, Donny, we're laughing again.

Sure, darling.

We'll be all right.
