All language subtitles for Kansas City Princess VO (William Keighley 1934)

I paid a buck for this time. A buck?

You're going to miss me, baby.

Who, me?

One more crack like that.

Quincy, I'm in love.

Is that good?

I can't eat. I can't sleep.

I can't even play pool no more.

Quincy, that's love.

Well, ain't there no way you can get out
of it? I don't want to get out of it.

Hey, you know what that is?

It's a ring. No.

Well, it looks like a ring. Well, it is
a ring.

Well, I thought you said... It's an
engagement ring.

I'm going to get engaged.

And get married.

Well, ain't you going to St. Louis?

What do you think I'm packing for?

Let's see, I get to St. Louis in the
morning. If I could just catch that

afternoon train back to my baby.

Certainly hope I can catch that train.

Why? Is it a good train?

Who cares?

Well, you better meet it anyway. Gets in
about four o 'clock.

Shouldn't I hate to leave her around
here all alone in all this riffraff in

nobody'll look after?

Hey, Quincy, I got a job for you. I want
you to keep your eye on Rosie while I'm

gone. Well, I guess I'm all set.

Hey, what's this?

Oh, can you imagine? I was forgetting
all about it.

Only ghost to show you, Quincy. I'm in
love. That's a toothbrush.

Oh, that's what it is. Well, I'm off to
see my baby.

And not bad.

Now, honey, that's 50 cents for a
manicure.

And if you change of a dollar... Got
change for a dollar?

Don't tell me the gentleman wants
change.

Be right back.

I was only fooling.

Oh.

You know, really, Mr. Greenway, you have
the nicest hands I've ever worked on.

Thanks to your expert manicuring. Oh,
I'll bet you say that to all the girls.

Oh, no, I don't. Oh, yes, you do.

No, I don't.

Well, I... Anyway, it does your heart
good to know that your work's

Professional pride, eh? Sure.

You know, most of the apes come in here,
get the idea. We girls are out just for

the dough.

I mean, tips.

This is a most interesting discussion.

Couldn't we continue it tonight, say, at
the Placer Gardens?

Well, if the mothballs haven't chewed up
my evening gown, it's a date.

Good.

Here's your change.

Now, if you're good, you might keep
that.

I'm always good.

I ain't got a thing to do tonight. Ain't
that funny?

It's a scream.

What time will I pick you up tonight?

You don't see romance on that priceless,
do you?

I don't read good.

You haven't got time to read, brother.
You better run.

Was that guy getting fresh? Don't they
all? Why, they're big stiff. Now, forget

it. Come on, let's sit down.

I am... frozen puss. It was all right
till you got here.

Always kidding. Ain't that true?

Hey, cut it out.

Supposing some of my pals had seen me.

Hey, I got bad news for you, baby.

I'm hopping over to St. Louis tonight.

Oh, life's just one tough break after
another.

Yeah, but before I go, I got something I
want to give you.

Gee, that's sweet. What is it? Well,
it's kind of a surprise.

Oh, go on, tell me quick. I got the
jitters. Well, listen, I got a couple

before train time. Suppose we hop the
buck first, and then I'll give it to

huh? Okay, Diney.

Fine. I'll see you later.

So long, Callahan.

Mug.

I don't got a person.

A girl who works in the laundry as a
dream lover all of her own.

What are you being so careful about?

lay off him, will you? I know he's a
mug, but he's nice to me. What more can

ask? All right, all right. Take your
bank book to a window and say Dynamite's

nice to me.

See if they write anything in it.

Don't brag. You haven't even got a bank
book.

Don't let that worry you, nun.

I got Mr. Greenway.

You mean to get.

With Callahan on the trail, he's got.

You know, I'm afraid that I just about
ruined your slipperies. Oh, no. Really,

you're a marvelous dancer, Mr. Greenway.
I'll bet you say that to every man. Oh,

I don't. Oh, you do. I do. You do.

Well, thanks.

Why, you haven't tasted your wine yet.

Oh. It's Moyan Shandon 14.

You'll probably recognize it.

Yes, of course.

Mmm, delicious.

Don't you think so?

It's delicious.

I'd recognize it anywhere.

I'm getting the table if you've got one
or if you ain't.

I'm sorry, sir, but we're filled up. I'm
going to dance. That's what I come here

for. But you have no reservation, sir. I
don't need none.

Hey, there's Marie.

Hi, Marie.

I have a feeling something's going to
happen.

Come on, Rosie.

I knew it.

There you are, sweetheart.

Hello, Marie.

Well, mark up a touchdown for dynamite.
Oh, Mr. Greenway, this is Mr. Carson.

Hiya, pal.

It's okay if we sit here, ain't it?

Sure, sure. Pull up a chair and sit
down.

Mmm, new kind of ginger ale, huh?

Gee, it's getting warm in here, ain't
it?

You've got a button open.

Huh? Oh, yeah, I'm getting fat.

Well, should we order up the groceries?

Hey, where?

Louder, he can't hear you.

Give me two miles of spaghetti and a mug
of beer.

And the lady? Huh? Oh, yeah. What do you
want, babe? Butter toast and coffee.

Yes, ma 'am.

And the best you've got in the kitchen.

Yes, sir.

You've got to know how to treat these
waiters. Ain't that right, Benny?

I really cannot qualify as an expert.

Good night.

Surely you're not leaving, Mr. Greenway.
Yes, I must get to May. But if you

allow me, I can explain now. Perfectly
all right.

That guy's got the worst manners I've
ever seen. You uneducated baboon.

Your manners will go good in a
straitjacket.

No wonder Mr. Greenway walked out. He's
a high -class gent. And what are you? A

super -colossal monk.

Talk to you later.

Oh, Mr. Greenway!

Oh, Mr. Greenway!

Did she saw it in me? I didn't do
nothing, did I? Forget it.

What was you saying in the barbershop
about a big surprise?

Oh, yeah.

Shut your eyes.

There.

Oh, what a beautiful ring.

Yeah, I bought that one. It shows you
what I think about you.

Oh, dynamite. Let me try it on. Sure.

How do you like it? Oh, it's gorgeous.

Just what I wanted.

Ah, gee.

Certainly feels great getting engaged,
huh?

Engaged? Yeah.

It kind of gets you in here, don't it?

Yeah, I guess so.

Hmm, ain't you going to wear it?

Here's the answer.

Oh, gee, swell.

A fourth diamond.

I bet you're pretty proud, huh?

Come on, let's dance.

Gonna miss me while I'm in St. Louis?

Give me a chance to catch up with my
knitting.

Oh, so you're a knitter.

Maybe you'll knit me a purple necktie
sometime.

Sure, if I had my needles here, I'd run
it up right away.

Love is a wonderful thing.

I'm just finding that out. We'd better
get back to your spaghetti.

That train leaves at 11 .15, don't it?

Yeah, okay.

St. Louis Express leaving at 11 .15 on
track number seven.

Well, hurry up, babe. You'd better be
running along.

Goodbye. Take a taxi. Oh, taxis cost
money. Here's a fin. Take care of

Goodbye. Hey.

And remember, you're engaged now. No
other guys are... So long.

So long.

Hey!

Hey, not so loud down the mountain. I'm
on the lam.

Say, I'm glad I met you. How'd you like
to make a little dough with me? Sure,

I'll listen to anything.

This is a legitimate racket. I gotta go
over to St. Louis on a job. When you

wait in town, I'll get back. Sure, I'll
wait. I'll send you a wire when I meet

you at the station. See, where are you
gonna stop? Hotel Royal.

St. Louis Express.

That's my train. All aboard.

Oh, say, Jimmy, what name you use?

Frank Harrington.

Harrington. How do you spell it?

H -A -R -R... I'll make it Smith, will
you?

Okay. Frank Smith.

Okay.

Don't shoot till you see the white's
little eyes.

Well, I'd like to take a shot at
somebody, and I'll give you one guess

is. Oh, forget it. He don't know any
better.

Well, neither do you.

Here I land Greenway, a guy that owns
three office buildings.

And what do you do? You bring in a low
-down mug.

Certainly don't admire your choice.

Who said I had any choice?

Well, ain't you ever going to get on to
yourself?

You want to live in a dump like this all
your life?

Look at your clothes. Look at them.

You've never had... I've had more than
two dresses to your name since I've

you. The best you can do is rub ten cent
tips from guys that smoke nickel

cigars. Ain't you got any ambition?

Sure. Maybe I'll marry Dynamite. Over my
corpus delecti. Look at the ring he

gave me. Ah, the sooner you forget that
guy, the sooner we'll be using ermine

coats for bath mats. You mean to give
the ring back? Certainly not. Just have

never give anything back.

He said he was turning legitimate for
me. He hasn't got brains enough. He'll

probably hop that ring to pay for the
wedding. Now look, you get this and get

straight. A girl's got to have three
things nowadays.

Money, jack, and dough.

It's about time you learned it. Will you
stop giving me a near -egg? All right.

I'm ready to learn my homework.

Well, that's my nice little Rosie. Now,
look.

Here's the way it's done for you.

You've got the nicest hands I ever
worked on. Oh, I guess I do. The better

come along. They're the kind that make
the girl want to do her best. Oh, pardon

me.

Stranger in town?

Yeah, I'm busy.

Business must be good.

I hope it's gone a bit. Say, that's a
nice ring. You engaged?

Yes. No.

No, I'm breaking it in for a friend.
Sure, it's a swell -looking diamond.

So is yours.

Perfect match, aren't they? Yeah.

Say, they look swell together, don't
they?

Yes, they fit together like ham and
eggs.

Hey, speaking of ham and eggs, why don't
I buy you some dinner? Oh, why should

you buy me anything?

Oh, I thought we could hit the high
spots together and have some laughs. You

see, not knowing anybody is kind of
lonesome. Listen, this is a barbershop,

a lonely hearts club.

But I'd hate to see you lonesome.

Okay, swell.

Say, why don't I meet you tonight at 7 o
'clock down by the corner drugstore?

That's why drugstores are born.

See you.

I won't be able to sit down for a week.
Ah, forget it. If you play your cards

right, you're not going to get that pin.

I'll give him both barrels and see what
happens. That's the way to talk.

What can dynamite ever give you? Nothing
but trouble. On account of him, I can't

even get Greenway on the phone anymore.

Will you quit squawking? I told you I'd
try my best.

a lot of fun, though. I didn't know
there were so many nightclubs in town.

it's a pleasure, kid. You know, you're a
smart girl. I like you. You're a smart

guy, too.

You know, I sure like that pin.

I sure like that ring.

Let's see how they look together.

Oh, they'd make a lovely dinner ring,
don't you think?

Yeah, it seems a shame to separate them.

Hey, ain't those two dames back from
lunch yet?

Maybe they won't come back.

Rose, she don't feel so good today.

Oh, dear.

I've looked for that ring in every pawn
shop in town.

You expect you to get dealt with, hair
oil? A swell spot you got me in. But you

need the wet nurse. If it had been me
last night, we'd have had two diamonds

today instead of a headache.

I took your advice and look what I got
me. A tough guy waiting in the

and a tough one coming out from St.
Louis.

Thank you so much.

Jewish barbershop.

Who, Mr. Carson?

She's out to lunch.

Oh, just a minute.

Fifteen minutes left.

Oh, Rosie.

Mr. Carr, that's another wire.

Come on. Now, I'll wait here. Maybe I'll
run into Greenway. Don't you take a run

-up out on me. No.

Hello. Is that you?

That ain't nobody but your ever -loving
dynamite.

Well, Coach, how's the old sparkler?

The ring?

Oh, it's fine.

It's right here on my finger.

What's that?

Hello? I said the ring's fine. It's
right here on my finger.

Oh, you sound like you look sad.

Well, here's something to cheer you up.
I'll be home in a couple hours.

In two hours?

Sure, I'm glad. I'm hysterical.

Yeah, the train stopped for a couple of
minutes, so I hopped off to call you.

I get in at 4 .28.

4 .28, huh? Yeah, you better come down
about 4 o 'clock and wait for me.

And listen, did you start to knit that
purple necktie?

Sure, it's practically around your neck.

Yeah, I'll be there.

Bye -bye.

The worst has happened. Trial
excitement. We're in trouble.

Dynamite's coming back. He'll be in at 4
.30. Well, what are we going to do? Do?

That's what you're supposed to tell me.

Oh.

Right face.

Forward march.

Well, here comes the army. Someone must
have declared war.

Thank you.

We are attending a convention to
exchange ideas with our sister

If you have any suggestions to submit to
the convention, please write them down

on a piece of paper and drop them in the
little

box which we have placed in each car.

The little box will be marked with
suggestions.

If we don't leave soon, we're sunk.

What time does the train pull out?

About the same time it left last year,
thank you. You're welcome.

You might get there at 4 .28. Look at
that clock.

You girls going somewhere?

Oh, Father, it was so nice of you to see
us off.

Please, sir, we notified you parents you
were not to come to the station.

Hello, Donovan. Who are you looking for?
Oh, it's me. Why, my gal was supposed

to meet me, but I guess she couldn't
make it. Don't let her worry you. The

town's full of them.

You sound like you've been doing all
right.

I always do all right.

Hey, take a look at that.

Where'd you get that?

Tim gave it to me.

Was she a good -looking blonde, Tim?
Named Rosie for light hair?

Yeah. What?

I'll pulverize that tomato.

Dynamite. Rosie and her pal have put on
little girls' dresses and they're going

for New York. What are you talking
about?

The manager of the train is hauling New
York. Have you been sniffing out nose

candy again? Boss, they're over there.
It's a special train for days with

girls' dresses on.

I don't catch on. I don't catch on. I'll
get her if she goes to Constantinople.

That dirty double -crossing no -good
Rosie.

Am I burning up?

I'm going to hop a plane and beat them
dames from New York. And Quincy, thanks

for keeping your eye on Rosie.

across the street, Portland and downtown
New York.

I guess we better take off the long gray
beard.

The sooner the better. This dress is
making me itch.

How about it, Jim? Yes, indeedy.

Yeah, does that change me more?

Follow that car!

You boys going on a trip?

Yes, sir. Our first trip to Paris.

Introductions were seen to be in order.
This is my friend, Alderman Jim Cameron

of Zanesville. And my partner in crime,
Alderman Sam Warren. And I'm Rosie

Sturgess, and she's Marie Callaghan.

Yes, sir.

Very fragrant.

Smell that, girlie.

Not this one, son. Our farewell party's
in here.

Will you go and join us in the Bonvoy's
Live Visions? No, thanks.

But we'll have a quick drink with you.

Come on, Zane.

185. I'm broke, pal. Here's my watch.
That'll make us even.

Just a minute. You pass, please. What?
You pass, please.

Be

patient,

girls, for patience is a beautiful
virtue.

This little pig went to Europe.

This little piggy stayed at home. This
little piggy wig had some roast beef,

this little piggy wig had none.

What's the matter? You got lumbago?

No, sirree. I am here the golden tears
of Bacchus. You're just an old

American. You bet your life they came in
handy during Prohibition, and I say,

girls, never discard an old friend.

the home of stockyards and beautiful
gals.

First, tell her the songs you know them.

Sammy and Rosie were sweethearts.

Quit it!

What do you think you're wrestling with?

I was only trying to be sociable. Oh, of
course you were. Come on now, Rosie.

Now, don't get sore.

Sore? If he was a Russian, he'd settle a
five -year plan in ten minutes.

Let's get out of here. I didn't mean it.
Come on, Maria.

I'll take these zanies from Zanesville.
Well, there goes the party. Sorry, boys.

I offer you ten thousand apologies. Now,
there's a man that can really

apologize. Bum voyage.

Come on.

What do you want to walk out on him for?
I don't like... that guy pawned me.

Maybe he's only trying to get your
weight. They get on my nerves. When

broke, you're not supposed to have
nerves. Gee, this is some canoe.

I'd be awful sore if I had to go to
Paris on it. You're not the Paris type.

You're strictly Kansas City. I don't see
any yachts waiting to take you across.

Oh, well, if you'd listen to me, instead
of being so darn pig -headed, nothing

would be too good for us. I'd listen to
you in Kansas City and look what it got

me. Free trip to New York as an outdoor
girl of America. You'd be sensible if

I'd be a member of the Foreign Legion.

See me? And get those two zanies to take
us on a free trip to Europe. I'll take

spinach. Well, I suppose you know
dynamites waiting at the gangplank with

heavy artillery. Oh, gosh, I forgot.
Now, will you listen to reason? I guess

I'll have to. All right, let's see if
you know your lesson. A girl needs three

things nowadays. What's the first? Jack.
Second? Money. Third?

Dough. Now we understand each other.

Hello!

Going somewhere?

Hey!

Well, if it isn't little Rosie.

Did you miss us?

You can bet your bottom dollar we did.

Oh, you naughty boy, she didn't even try
to run after us. It's mighty good to

see you, Rosie. Put her there.

Thank you.

Oh, you think that's funny, do you?

Yes, and so do you.

Yes, so do I.

Oh, yeah.

What are you doing here?

Oh, I'm just delivering some flowers.

Well, you better get along. The ship is
about to sail.

Yeah?

All right.

Now,

gals, if you'll kindly give me your
attention for just a few moments, I take

great pleasure in presenting to you
Madam Palooka, who knows all...

my hand closely. The pride of
Zanesville.

A egg.

Look, look.

There it is. Watch it closely.

It's an egg. When it comes birth, the
chicken or the egg. I'll show you. Watch

it closely.

Big.

Over here. One, two, three, four.

What's the matter? Oh, I forgot we
haven't any clothes.

You can buy them on the ship.

Hooray! Let's go to Paris.

Hooray, hooray, hooray.

That costs for another drink. Hey, out
with the old hot water bottles.

Now, girls, I'm going to show you
another little trick.

Watch me get rid of these dead soldiers.

You better think of something quick.

Yes, we'll say again.

The ship has cost these little ladies
$600.

How can we buy tickets?

They'll pose off the boat.

Now, don't you worry about that.

I insist on giving you the money. Oh, I
couldn't do that. What would Uncle

Junior say?

He told me never to take money from
strangers.

But this is just a loan.

Everything's going to be all right.

It's all our fault.

I'm sure that Alderman Cameron is eager
and willing to advance you this money.

your pretty eyes. We'll attend to that.
You go down and buy whatever you want

and charge it to Alderman Cameron.

What will Uncle Julius say?

I'll tell you what we'll do. We'll toss
a coin.

Heads we don't, tails you do.

You do.

Now don't forget we'll expect you to pay
Jim back before you get to Paris.

Don't give it a thought, girls.

Don't give it a thought. We won't.
Anything we've got is yours.

600 bucks and they leave us flat?

Join in the wonderful camera.

What are you doing on this deck,
Jacques?

I have been sweetly, Monsieur Junior
Ashcraft.

Very nice man.

He's worth 20, 50, 60 million dollars.

What a man can do with so much money.
You ask me?

Thank you.

Why, I could knock you off and throw
your body in the lake and nobody would

see you again with the fishes, ain't
that right?

Yes, of course.

Now listen, Mr. Ashcan.

Not Ashcan, Ashcraft.

Now listen, you.

I'm just trying to show you what a cinch
you'd be for a snatch or a stick -up.

Why, a guy like you, a millionaire
running around cities like Europe and

you'll likely get knocked off any
minute, ain't that right?

Yes.

What you need is a bodyguard.

Now I'm going to do you a big favor.

I'm going to take the job.

What do you say?

Well, this is very embarrassing, and I
never even met you.

Come on, come on. How's about it?

Well, I guess it's a pretty good idea.

Okay, boss.

There you are.

My name's Dynamite. Oh, Ashcraft Jr.

Glad to know you, boss.

Yeah, how do you feel?

I'm tired.

I ain't slept in three days. Well, don't
you think it'd be a good idea if you'd

go to bed?

Yeah, where is the flop?

The what? The flop, the bed. Where is
it?

The bed. The bed. It's right over in
there. Right over there. There's an

pair of pajamas. You just put them on. I
don't need them. I sleep raw.

Oh, you do. Here, hold that. Oh, thank
you.

What's the matter with you? Don't you
know it's loaded?

Oh, I beg your pardon.

Very becoming to you.

Very cheap, madame. Well, you can send
all the others.

Charge them to Alderman James Cameron.
Room 39.

Oui, madame.

Thank you, boss. Yes, that's why I'm
taking this trip.

Small -looking tomato.

Yeah. She was an actress.

Spends most of her time in Paris.

That's the trouble with you
millionaires. Now, if I was married, I'd

man. There's nothing like being a family
man, especially if you're married.

I heartily agree with you.

Hey, look.

What do you think of that hunk of woman?

Hmm. Your fiancée?

I should say not.

We're in days.

That is, I was engaged to her one night,
three nights ago in Kansas City.

One touch of nature makes the whole
world care.

One touch... Say, that's all right.

Do you mind writing that down for me
sometime?

Oh, no trouble at all, no trouble at
all.

You and me were in the same boat, boss.
My dame blew out a KC and I've been

chasing her ever since.

It isn't one thing, it's another.

Now, here, my lover suffers from nerve
trouble.

Yeah, so does my Rosie.

There's a certain Dr. Sasha Pilnikoff in
Paris. He's been treating her for five

years. She's all right when she's with
him, but as soon as she comes back to

nervous again.

I don't want to be personal, boss, but
are you sure it's no trouble?

I'll make a clean breast of it. That's
what worries me.

She and that Russian doctor are always
together in Paris. You can't tell what

might happen.

Listen, Junior, I know I muscled in on
you, but now I like you, see? And if

dame is cheating on you... No, no, no,
no, I love her.

Besides, I can't stand the sight of
blood.

If this Dr.

Pilnikoff is lured by love...

I'll go to her. I'll throw myself at her
feet. I'll implore her. I'll beg her to

come back to me.

Oh, love them as if I only knew, if I
only knew.

I'll do it. I'll do it.

I know it's undignified, but I'm engaged
by cable.

Radiogram for Monsieur Durie. Ah, merci
bien.

Hello?

Madame Ashcroft, is Dr.

Sasha Pilnikoff with you?

It's for you, darling.

Hello? Hello, Sasha.

This is Marcel.

Would you like to hear something very
funny?

Let me read you a radiogram I just
received.

Marcel Duryea, Paris.

Please investigate my wife's activities
in connection with Dr.

Sasha Pilnikov.

Have report ready when I arrive in Paris
Saturday.

We'll be at Hotel Philippe.

I must know everything.

Au revoir.

You know, this is the first time I've
ever had a traveling companion. I like

I'm a pair of the last when you get to
know me. Here, I'll do that for you.

Thank you.

I'm telling you, boss, the only cure for
dang trouble is another dang. Picks you

right up.

I know, but love him as my wife or we'll
be in injustice.

Oh, I only mean for laughs. It'll do us
a world of good. I don't think it's very

ethical. Oh, come on, Junior. Let's let
ourselves go.

Well, you may be right, you may be
wrong, but how, how? Well, I got a

on the boat, ain't I?

Yeah, but what's that to do with it?
Well, then it's a cinch. Call them up

tell them we want a couple of manicures.

Oh, that's always done, huh? Sure.

Then we can try.

Well, that's the point, Junior.

Come on, here we go.

Let's get called up, huh?

How's that? That's fine, thank you.

Well, let me have the barbershop.

And I'll order some refreshments, too.

For barbershop, a dear manicure to Sweet
A, Monsieur Ashcroft. Merci beaucoup.

You have the most beautiful hands I ever
make manicure for.

The words are a little different, but
the meaning's just the same in any

language. And I thought that was
original with me.

Quite a racket, this manicuring. One
must encounter many interesting people.

Yes. One never knows how the other half
lives.

I must finish quick. We are going next
to Monsieur Junior Ashcroft. He's a very

wealthy American.

He's, um, how do you say that? Grand big
shot. Keep many dollars.

Is Junior Ashcroft on this boat? Oui,
madame. He orders it to manicure.

Why, isn't that funny? You know, he's a
very dear friend of ours.

You remember Junior?

Junior? Yes. Yes, Junior.

We met him at Monte Carlo during the
skiing last summer.

Oh, yes. Yes, of course. I remember.

Did you not ski at Monte Carlo?

It never snowed. Don't be so technical.

Say, we'd like to play a little joke on
Junior.

Let's surprise him and dress up his
manicurist.

Let's. Say, how would you like to earn
some money?

Oh, we'd like to. How much money do you
pay? Ten dollars.

You pay twenty.

And we do it. All right, all right, take
off your clothes. What does this junior

ass crap do?

He doesn't do, he's gone.

Oh, la, la, la, la, la. We are the
advanced manicurists. Should we enter

enter who, mademoiselle? Enter you.

Thank you, monsieur.

Ah,

me, a friend.

We want, uh, uh, you know, get a
manicure.

That would be the pleasure.

Oui, vous?

Oui, oui, oui, oui, oui, oh, dear.

Oh,

don't be frightened. He scares people at
first, but if you could use the

dynamite, you'll like him very much.

Poirot, mister, no understand English.

What? The girls are French.

French? Yes.

What's the French word for frightened?
Let me see.

Peur, non -peur, non -peur, non -peur.
Oh, meet my friend, monsieur dynamite.

Dynamite? Oh, oui, oui.

Yeah, dynamite, oui, oui.

Girls are cute, aren't they? Which one
do you like?

I think I like this one over here. Vous
for me and vous for him.

Huh? Him?

Yeah, him.

Certainly. Relax, eh, vous.

Jeu come back. Too sweet.

Oui, oui.

Shall we commence, eh?

Francie, huh? Why are you low down,
Chisley? You're living on a rain check.

are you doing on this boat? That's my
affair. One word from you and I'll tell

Ashcraft about Duffy. Go on, tell him.
See what he'll get you. I miss Duffy,

see? I had you on my mind. You keep your
trap shut and I'll put a ghostman over

mine. Oh, listen, Rosie.

Oh,

you like it, dynamite? Amen, amen?

Oui, oui, oui, oui, dynamite. I knew you
would.

Ah, you've got the most beautiful hands
I've ever made manicure with.

Yeah, they just fit around your neck.

A good time. Really? Yeah.

You like to have a good time? Well, I
should say I do. I think the girls like

us, Dynamite.

I know a game to make you laughing.

Well, I'm not much of a gamester, you
know.

Oh, this game is easy to play.

Yeah? If you lose, you must pay double
for the manicure. If you win, you pay

nothing. Oh, I see. Well, let's have it.

I will say to you three things. After
each one, you must answer me, I am the

great lover.

You do this and you're winning.

I see. I am the great lover.

It's a wager, but you're going to lose.
Watch this, Dynamite.

Trying to clip my boss, huh?

What do you mean, clip?

You ready?

Mm -hmm.

You like to smoke?

Well, I like it. Oh, I am the great
lover.

Almost caught me that time.

The French, they are a wonderful people.

I am the great lover.

You'll lose. You must pay double.

Oh, no. You've only asked me twice.

Now you have really lose.

When I say to you before you have lose,
you should say, I am the great lover.

Oh. I see. All right, then.

I'll pay double. I will.

Oh, no, no, no, no. I do not want your
money. I play only for fun.

Refusing money. She must be sick.

Ow! Oh, I'm sorry.

Give me my ring away, will you? Why
don't I grab you outside?

Would you like the bright polish of the
nail?

Oh, Andre?

Bonjour, Monsieur Scott.

Sometimes I'm a big sportman. You are,
eh? Well, I'll bet you a dollar you

say, I am the great lover, in answer to
the three questions I'm about to ask

you. I take the chance with you,
monsieur.

Yes.

Do you smoke?

I am the great lover.

The French people are wonderful people.

I am the great lover.

Ah, you lose, you see, you lose, you
lose.

I am the great lover.

Oh, well.

Okay. Merci, monsieur Scott.

I guess all you French people know that
joke, don't you?

Pardon?

Now let's all have a drink.

You think you're going over big with my
boss, don't you?

I don't care to discuss it with the
help.

I'm going to put a crimp in you gazingos
right now.

Junior, I want to talk to you. These two
dames are playing you for a sucker.

They ain't no more French than Patty's
pig. I'll tell you what they are. What

are they? They're a couple of manicures
from Kansas City. And if you don't look

out, they'll steal the buttonholes out
of your overcoat.

Is that true? Are you girls selling
under false colors?

Yes, it's true, but it's his fault. Just
because a guy stole my ring, he's been

chasing us all over the country with
this.

Oh, be careful. That might be loaded.
Stole it? Nothing. You give it home.

been so frightened we couldn't sleep.
We've had nightmares.

Oh, you poor girls.

We had to borrow money from two strange
old...

Here's my checkbook.

But a thought strikes me.

Why not be my guest while you're in
Paris?

There's no reason why we can't all be
friends.

Well, of course, Junior, you're the
boss. But personally, I'd strangle them

where they stand.

Won't you come along and help me pick up
my drooping spirits?

You just keep on drooping and we'll keep
picking you up.

What's the matter with you?

Ah, Monsieur Ashcroft, I'm very happy to
see you. Very happy to see you, too.

Meet my traveling companions.

Mademoiselle Callahan.

Bonjour, Mademoiselle.

Bonjour. Mademoiselle Sturges.

Enchanté, Mademoiselle. Bonjour.

And Monsieur Dynamite. Bonjour,
Monsieur.

How are you? Ah, let's sit down here.
Sit over here, girls. You sit there,

Dynamite.

Now, now to business at hand. Have you
any news?

But, Monsieur.

Oh, that's all right. You can speak
before them. They're my friends.

Ah, comme vous voudrez, as you like.

By all means.

Everything you ask me, I do. My report
complete absolument.

Your wife and Pilnikov.

A very difficult case.

All this?

Oui, monsieur.

Derriere never fail.

Oh, love, how could you? How could you?

Oh, this is terrible. This is terrible.

But I won't give her up. I love her. I
love her. Something must be done.

I'll say it, Had. Where is that Russian
wolfhound now? No, put that away. You'll

cut yourself.

No, he's right. He's right.

I'll kill him. I'll kill him.

And begone, teen?

Say, I've got an idea.

You want this love -ums, do you? I
certainly do. I don't know why, but

the idea.

Why not frame this, Pilk... this
Russian?

Just what I had in my mind to suggest.
An excellent idea.

I don't get it. You wouldn't.

Another crack like that?

If we could convince Mrs. Ashcroft that
Pilnikov is unfaithful, that he has

another woman.

Has he?

Well, be the other woman?

Sure.

I don't want my Rosie mixed up with no
Russians.

Shut up.

You can't on us, Mr. Duryea. We'll do
anything short of murder. And if things

get any tougher, we'll even consider
that.

These ladies will frame him.

Then, Madame Ashcraft, she will come
back to you.

It is a beautiful plan.

Oh, you're a genius. But first, I must
see Levems.

Thank you, Mr. Duryea. Merci.

Derriere, never fail. All right. I'll
see you later.

Oh, by the way, order yourself something
to eat and drink. Goodbye.

Goodbye. Take care of yourself, boss.

I was afraid it would be like this.

Oh, lovums, how could you?

After our romantic courtship, we met in
the Follies that Friday night, was

married Saturday morning.

Does that mean anything to you?

Shall we get a French divorce, or do you
prefer Mexico?

I don't want any kind of a divorce.

It'll take about a million dollars to
kill my beating heart, and not a cent

less. Let me tell you something. This
Dr. Pilikoff is not true to you.

It's not so.

It is so, and I can prove it.

Who is she?

Well, I don't know yet.

Oh, the whole thing's ridiculous. You're
making it up. Yeah, if you could find

this Dr. Pilnikoff in flagrant electo,
would you believe it then?

Don't be silly if that means what it
sounds like I'd have to. Then would you

consider coming back to me?

Maybe I would.

After I wrapped a horse whip around Dr.

Pilnikoff's face.

Ah, good.

Where are you going? I'm going out to
buy a nice big long horse whip.

Always be chicken to me.

If I am not too personal, what is the
nature of your business?

Them dames, they'd cop a hot stove with
no gloves on. Your grammar ain't fit to

eat. Taint them dames, it's those dames.
It's yous dames.

Well, I just sold of them, and I got the
situation well in hand. You can start

your monkey business any time. Good.

I am counting on you, monsieur, and
these charming ladies here.

The grand frame -up has commenced.
Everybody has followed my instructions.

Monsieur Ashcroft have back his wife.
You think so?

Derriere. He never fails.

All set? Yep. Let's go.

Unleash the hound. The hunting season
for Filner Corp is officially open.

Francois, who did... Sibu drives slower,
Sibu play.

If you don't, I'll wrap this phone
around your neck.

Hey, who's doing this show for me or you
fish cakes?

And lay off that Francois stuff, I'm
telling you.

Francois, do drive a little more
carefully, please.

You gorilla.

Hey, one more peep out of you, I'll come
back there and jab me fingers in your

eye.

Wait here for us, Francois. Maybe I
will, maybe I won't.

Une table pour deux, mademoiselle.

Anybody here speak English?

Oui, I speak English myself very well.

Come this way.

There's Pilnikoff now. Looks just like
his picture.

Oh, mister!

Seat us over there, will you please?

With pleasure, mademoiselle. Merci.

Voici la carte du jour, madame. Merci.

Looks like a bill of fat in me.

The doctor's in the bag.

He's bobbing up and down like a ship at
sea.

Quick, shine your teeth.

Uh -oh, I don't like your eyes.

Oh, Dr.

Pilnikoff, why not?

They make my blood boil.

And when my Russian blood is boiling,
I'm not responsible for my actions.

Concord 3159.

Shimoli. Oh, no, my dear. I'm utterly
sincere in what I say. I hope so,

It means an awful lot to me.

You are a prince.

Yes, a Kansas City princess.

Pardon. A telephone call for
Mademoiselle Peggy.

Are you sure it's for me?

Oui.

Pardonnez -moi.

Rosie, lay off that guy or I'll give him
the works.

Francois, attend to your chauffeuring
and stop threatening my friends.

He's just another clay pigeon to me.

You seem to forget there's a guy in this
town that runs a guillotine.

Yeah, I'll give him the works, too.

Or give yourself the works.

Where'd you come from?

Cracking the wall?

Listen, Rosie, what's he use?

He's still got that ring.

No. No, thank you. You'll have to pardon
me. I'm going to give them an arola

skating lesson.

They got the wrong Miss Sturgis.

Will you take me home, Sasha? I'm awful
tired.

Oh, that's right. She always, always has
her afternoon nap. Oh, I'm sorry. Then

let me see you to recall.

Thank you.

Let that be a lesson to you.

Wait till Lovins gets a hold of you.
Atta boy, boss, but I think a gat would

better. I can hardly wait.

I can hardly wait.

You have not long to wait. When
Mademoiselle Rosie is phone, we are

the grand frame -up. Good.

I have arranged to bring here Madame
Ashcraft.

She will see Pilnikoff with Rosie.

Then, my good work, it is finished.

Derriere, never fail.

You're great, you're fine. You're better
than Sherlock Holmes.

How can I ever repay you? If you like,
you can pay me now.

All right, suits me.

And the amount is 75 ,000 francs. And it
was worth it.

There you are. Wait a minute, boss.

Don't you think that's a little steep?

It was a very difficult cave.

We'll settle for 50.

That would be satisfactory.

Yeah, I thought you'd think so. There
you are, boss.

You see, Ashcroft, you are a born
better.

Oh, thank you very much.

Oh, Pilnikoff.

Pilnikoff.

Pilnikoff, you're a bad boy.

Ah, ma petite fleur.

You are as beautiful a rose as your
lovely name.

Pardonnez -moi, Sasha. I'll be right
back.

You must not be impatient, monsieur.

I can't help it.

Hello.

Hello.

Yes, this is Thierry.

Excellent. You stop in a few moments?

Wait, wait.

Everything will be fixed.

The mouse soon come in the trap.

I hate to be in Pilnikov's shoes when he
gets a dose of this.

You've made a new heart today, Sasha.
You've kissed my hand 40 times.

Tomorrow I will kiss it a hundred times.

A thousand times.

If you hit a thousand, I'm going to
sell.

Oh, pardon my dishevel. I was in bed
when Mr. Deere came.

Oh, Junior Deere, you look swell in
pajamas. You should wear them night and

Oh, thank you. I go now to bring Madame
Ashcraft. Come, Monsieur Dynamite.

Remember, follow my order to the letter.
We're ready to go to the top, General.

Yeah. Come.

I hate to leave you alone, boss. Oh, I
have Miss Callaghan here with me.

Yeah, that's what I mean.

Now, you've got the good, don't you?

Everything is complete.

Looks like curtains for the doctor.

Yeah, when you come right down to it,
Junior, there's a lot to be said for

romance after all.

You must tell me about it sometime.

Yes, but not now. There they are. Au
revoir.

I had no idea it was so late.

It's never late when I'm with you.

Bonsoir, Marie. Comment ça va?

Bonsoir. How have you been?

If we can't be alone, I'm unhappy.

So I think I'll go home and be unhappy
by myself.

I hope you understand, mademoiselle. Oh,
sure, sure.

Au revoir, ma petite chou.

Okay. Au plaisir.

So long. So long.

Quick, Mrs. Ashcraft's on the way.

Sasha! Sasha!

Come in quick, Doc. Rosie fainted.

What is with my little girl? Looks like
a nervous breakdown in spades.

My poor little Rosie, you are sick.

Oh, Sasha, you're here at last.

We'll find out soon what's the trouble.

He's here! He's here!

Good, good.

Marie, will you please bring a glass of
water?

She's in the bathroom.

Oh, we have water, dear.

You're at the wrong door, Duryea.

Open that door. Open that door.

It's a mistake, Mrs. Ashcraft.
Pillowcloth's next

door. Open that door. You're at the
wrong door, Duryea.

coffee. He says, the next room there...

Lovins, there must be some mistake.

And to think I gave you five of the best
years of my life. Why, it's an open and

shut case, this woman. And I've got a
hundred witnesses.

You'll hear from my lawyer.

But dear, just a moment. I'm as innocent
as you are.

Yeah, that's what the trouble is.

Lovins.

Whoa.

What's the matter? That Frenchman's
quite funny.

Thank you.

Oh,

this is terrible.

Oh, oh, Diney.

Oh, poor Diney. That was a swell idea of
yours.

Junior... loses a wife and a million
simoleons, and poor Diney takes the

I'd like to get my manicuring sisters
under that dame's cuticle just once.

I know what I'll do. I'll give her up.
That's what I'll do. I'll give her up.

Aren't you being a little hard on her?

I haven't. She shall suffer as I
suffered. Have you nerve trouble? I

what a nerve looks like. Good. Then I'll
marry you. You want to marry me, don't

you? I always knew Kansas City was no
place for a Callahan.

Where is he? Never mind. You mustn't
play anymore with those bad little

boys. But I'm supposed to be a tough guy
from Kansas City. Yeah, I know, and I'm

taking you back there. But you've got to
turn legitimate.

Oh, I sure will. Are we engaged again?

Where's the ring?

Here. Here's something for you. What's
this?

Duria is 50 ,000 francs.

And my last job.

Yeah, it better be.

Hey, boss.

Best role that I ever had. Loved every
minute of it.

He would go into his office, and the
outer office would have pieces of paper

the walls, from the floor up to the
ceiling, all four walls.

And there was drawn the whole movie. And
when you'd start shooting, the artist

would sit on a high stool next to the
camera with this great big book, and

were all the drawings.

And he would just look into the book to
see what the drawing was, and say, the

camera's over there.

You know, he never looked through the
camera and he always knew what lens they

were using. The crews loved him because
he knew exactly what he wanted.

Everything had been planned, you know,
ahead of time. Everything.

Brother, I'm going downtown and send a
telegram. My darling, who do you know to

send a telegram to?

I know a wonderful person who will come
and shake us all up. Just the one to

save us. You've gone crazy. What do you
mean save us? All this time there's been

one right person to save us. Well, I
loved it. I had loved his films and

I was really looking forward to working
with Hitchcock. But what I remember more

than anything was going to Universal and
going to Mr. Hitchcock's office.

And he told me the story of Shadow of a
Doubt. And if you know his films,

you know that sound is very important.

Who are you? Charlie.

And somehow he managed to give me the
sound, whether it was tapping his

or something on the top, you know, a
bell or a bottle of first sound.

Whatever it was, he told me that film so
minutely.

that when I went to see the film, I
thought, I've seen this film before. I

it in his office.

You've had something engraved on it
that's different. I haven't, but I will

you like it. Yes, you have, Uncle
Charlie. It's very faint.

That must be someone's initials.

It was wonderful to work with him, and
he was such fun often. So was Joe

Kind of a family in a strange way. You
don't usually think of Hitchcock in a

We're all happy now, Uncle Charlie.

Look at us. For once, we're all happy at

It was a very happy experience.

Very, very happy.
