George, I've got to get home before 10 o 'clock. I promised my mother.

There's no rush.

It's a quarter to.

I've got to get up at dawn to feed the animals.

You know that's a must.

So you sleep less for once.

Tonight's special, so make an effort.

Rosalie, tomorrow you're leaving for Zurich.

I won't see you for quite a while.

But you can come see me practically every weekend.

Don't dramatize, will you?

You must be mad. What about my parents? You told me they were asleep.

What if they hear us? We won't make any noise.

They won't hear us.

George, don't.

You're going to wake up your parents. Cut it out.

Don't. Just a little bit.

Prove you love me.

It'll hurt.

Stop it.

Don't wake up your parents.

You're afraid of your parents.

Are you afraid of me?

That's women for you. The buck leaves in 20 minutes and Rosalie isn't ready yet.

Uh -huh.

Ah, come on. Hurry up.

Shit, man, you look like two hicks from the sticks in their Sunday best.

You'll cause a riot when they see you in the big town.

What are you trying to do? You always get me so mad. Well, go and miss the

Let me carry this for you. Oh, don't pay him no mind, girl, and hurry up. I'll

get a move on.

Goodbye, Dad.

Good luck, girl.

Bye. Bye.

You've got 15 minutes. That's plenty of time.

Not in my recent experience.

Why, did you miss a bus?

I caught it by the tail end. It's called a caboole, son.

I never touch the stuff, ma 'am.

Oh, good. A man has got to be hard -headed. Look, I made some salt in the

I try to keep it hard, ma 'am. Got a soft spot up there, it is. For Rosalie.

out your nonsense.

You'd better quit your smooshing. I know when I miss the bus.

You'll come to see me in Zurich, won't you? That will do, children. Better

behave. Where do you think you are? You look like something out of those

magazines Father keeps under the pillow. You can never tell I brought you up

decent. Oh, Mother.

Oh, don't you mother me.

Behave like I learned you to.

Oh, Mother.

Watch it. Where's he going? He's aiming straight at us.

It's all right.

Now he's stopped.

Let me get in first. And don't start it. Just say goodbye.

Goodbye.

Bye.

Bye. Goodbye.

I'll see you soon. Bye -bye.

Albie, what's this supposed to be? Oh, don't be silly. It's supposed to be a

fountain, and a fountain it is. Oh, Mother, you think I'm stupid or

That's a plane that must have crash -landed. Oh!

They'll soon haul it away.

The way men stare at you.

Oh, for God's sake. Did you hear the way that young man whistled at me?

I bet those city boys are shameless enough to make advances at married

Maybe that whistle was meant for me.

Oh, you're still too young. Why should anybody whistle at you?

There'll be a lot of water under the bridge before men start looking at you

way. Why, you're still a little girl. Another.

Here's the tramway.

What a crowded city.

Come on, in we go.

No, not yet.

Never excuse me. Watch it, Mom.

How did you ever...

What? How?

Here.

Oh.

Looks nice.

Well, he's a doctor, isn't he? I know he's a doctor. Well, doctors live in

houses. This one does. All the good ones do. That's how you can tell.

Yes, this is it.

Dr. Palmer.

Thank you very much indeed.

Come on. Hello.

Hi.

Read that.

Rosalie, don't forget your work here.

Remember, we did our very best to bring you up good.

Try to be careful.

We want to be proud of you.

Make sure no sweet -talking city slugger turns your head.

It

sounds

like moans. I wouldn't be surprised.

You know, sometimes patients are in pain.

I'm afraid.

You know, you've got to get used to the idea people come around well.

My girl, it's going to be your work. You're going to be looking after men and

women who are suffering.

The doctor's free now. Come in.

My name is Corrine. We're going to work together.

I'm Rosalie. How are you?

I hope you'll take good care of my daughter. And I hope she won't

you. Oh, I'm sure she won't. And we'll take good care of her. You'll see.

We'll make a good nurse out of her. Thank you.

Why don't you come in?

All right.

Better take your things. Oh, sure.

Thank you.

Dr. Palmer, this is Rosalie and her mother. I'm so glad to meet you both.

This is my daughter, Rosalie.

How are you, Rosalie?

You can take the day off, but tomorrow you'll be getting off to a flying start,

and I'm sure I'll make a good nurse out of you.

But I want to tell you that I'm a stickler for punctuality, and when I say

.m., I mean 9, sharp.

Corrine here is a top nurse, and she'll teach you everything she knows.

But there are two things you have to have, and that's conscientiousness and

discipline. And if you can muster that, we'll get along.

I'll do the best I can, sir, and I don't mean that as a joke. Oh, sense of

humor. I'll do the best I can.

Goodbye, Mommy.

Goodbye, dear.

See you. Try not to make too many puns. You mustn't keep the patients in

stitches. Nor tickle their funny bone.

Why don't you sit down?

Thank you.

I'm so very glad she'll be working with you.

I was a little worried.

But I feel much better now that I've met you.

I could tell right away you're a man a mother can trust.

You see, you see, I know the dangers a poor girl faces in the big city. It's

quite obvious that you're a nice man who's fully worthy of my trust.

I'm convinced that Rosalie is perfectly safe with Dr.

Palmer. She's certainly perfectly safe with me.

Goodbye, madam, and don't worry.

How not to worry?

I do already.

Well, she's a big girl now.

She has to learn the facts of life sooner or later.

Oh, why should I worry?

What people do naked never hurt anybody.

They're always dressed when they go for each other's throat.

mind, young man.

What? Let me give you a hand.

Thanks, goddamn woman.

After you.

Well, are you going sailing?

From the looks of it, you still have a lot to learn.

It won't be easy.

I'm a fast learner. You'll find out.

I'm quick and I'm smart.

Then we'll get along.

Where is Corrine?

Corrine? She starts at ten every other day. You're alone. So why don't you show

me how smart you are?

Well, why don't you apply your vaunted wits at straightening out the lab?

It's as good as straight.

Mr. Hellman there?

Mr. Hellman is next.

Well,

he's busy, so you're next.

Just my luck. Why, were you next in line?

I wonder if I'll ever see the end of you.

Take my advice. Take your problems to a shrink. You know I've done everything I

can. Your problem is in your head, not your penis. Now, wait a minute, Missy.

You claim you're a doc. I'm tired all the time, and that you can do something

about. I'm positive you can snap me out of it. I feel pooped. I feel tired.

Every time I meet a woman, I practically fall asleep.

Get it? I'll stretch out on the bed. I'm sure there's something you can do.

Anything so I can get rid of you.

Don't call it a bed. It's a cot. Okay, a cot. It is a cot. All right, it's a

cot. Come give me a hand, Rosalie, will you please?

Better take off your pants.

What? Take off my pants. Do you expect me to stick the needle through your

pants? You want me to take off my pants in front of a girl? Men do that

sometimes. You're out of your mind. I should sue you. I will sue you. You'll

hear from my lawyer.

You just made me lose one of my best customers.

How'd I do that? I didn't do anything.

He looked at you and split.

You've got a way with men.

Me?

Uh -huh. You're putting me on.

Must be that suit. One look at you and they get the feeling you're going to

Shanghai them into the Swiss Navy.

Go on, beat it.

Thank you.

suggest you do likewise. Follow my example and have yourself some fun.

Hi, Rosalie. How are you? I can see the man is keeping you busy.

Don't you like the work?

That's not it. I don't mind the work. Really, I don't mind.

I knew what I was letting myself in for.

All right, so now tell me what's wrong.

There's nothing to tell.

You're a little liar.

Let's hear it.

Any problem you've got, I want you to tell me about it. You can tell me I'm

friend. I want you to promise that I can trust you.

Sure, I promise. It'll be our little secret.

Well, I get the impression the doctor's always making fun of me.

How silly.

What gave you that idea?

He treats me...

As if I were some half -wit. He thinks I'm dumb.

Offhand, I'd say that you're in love with him.

What?

That's not it.

Though I will grant you, he's good -looking. Now, you listen to me.

We've got to stick together.

I'll tell you what's wrong.

You look like a little girl, and you want to be treated like a woman.

But I am.

Of course you're a woman.

So look the part.

Even a beautiful painting needs a frame.

The same thing goes for a woman.

You know what I mean?

What's wrong with me?

Nothing's wrong, honey.

Tomorrow is your day off.

I'll phone my hairdresser to dream a style for you, after which you'll go and

buy yourself a new outfit. I'll make a brand new woman out of you. You think

doctor will notice? You bet your life he will.

That's what I call being a friend. That's what I said.

That's for the new Rosalie.

Corrine? Yes, sir, I'll be right there.

I've got to get to work.

Good luck to you.

Don't you forget to ask. I'll give you all my addresses, okay?

Jeffrey? What?

Isn't she an actress or something?

She sure is something.

Maybe she just reminds me of Marilyn Monroe.

Good

morning.

Can I help you?

May I look around a bit?

Sure. Are you looking for something special?

You may remember a girl named Corrine. She gave me your address.

She's a friend of mine.

You're a friend of Corrine's. Why, she's one of my best customers.

If you share the same tastes, I know exactly what to show you.

Let's see now. Let me get an idea of your size.

You're a size 12.

Yeah, 12.

Now your breasts, I'd say 36, maybe 38.

You've got nice breasts, you know.

Oh, yes, you do.

I think I've got just the thing for you.

I'll be right back.

I guess you're wondering why it's cut that way.

Yeah. It's very practical if you want to do it in a car. The point of the whole

thing is you don't have to take them off.

If you want to... If you want to make love, you don't have to wriggle out. You

just lift your legs and enjoy it.

Oh.

If you want to try it on for size, go right ahead.

Did you try it on?

Oh, I haven't yet.

Let me help you slip it on. No, really, you don't have to bother. It's no

bother.

Don't be such a prude. I'm used to it.

You're even more beautiful than Corrine.

My name is Lorelai.

What's yours?

Rosalie.

It's a pretty name.

Every bit as pretty as you are.

Let's test it.

You

like

it? Oh, good God.

You're beautiful.

I'm glad.

Night and day.

any clue you in.

There's this medical convention, and he asked me to accompany him for two days.

That's just great.

It's great.

We're leaving tomorrow.

Oh, by the way, Dr.

Palmer wants to see you. Is he in for a shock? I'd love to see his face. You

think so?

Is that you, Rosalie?

Yes.

I'll be gone for a couple of days.

Shit, he must have been shaking like a leaf when he took that X -ray.

Look, you'll find plenty to keep you busy while I'm gone.

Huh? He must have started smoking at the age of three.

Look, why don't you pick up that file and get it back where it belongs?

Yes, sir.

And, uh... Huh?

Oh.

Rosalie?

Is that you, Rosalie?

You are Rosalie.

Pinch me.

Or is this some kind of a mistake?

No, there's no mistake.

I'm Rosalie.

Do you like me this way?

You're fantastic.

I simply don't believe you're the same girl.

Oh, by the way, how would you like to come along to the convention with me?

be like a two -day vacation.

We would get better acquainted.

We'd learn to better appreciate each other.

How does that grab you?

But from what Corrine? Oh, I forgot to tell Corrine. I wanted her to look after

some urgent business for me.

We're leaving tomorrow at 9 o 'clock. Make sure you're packed and ready.

See you tomorrow.

And one more thing.

You bring along that dress.

Mm -hmm.

Pardon me, I'm looking for Dr.

Palmer's house. It's in this street, isn't it? Yeah, as a matter of fact,

right there.

Oh, that's great. Thanks a lot.

Hello, what can I do for you? Well, my name is George Huckters. I guess this is

Dr. Palmer's place.

Yes, that's right, but he's not here today. Is it urgent? Well, I guess I

make myself clear. I'm not sick.

My name's George. I came to see my fiancée, Rosalie.

He just hired her.

Well, yes, of course, but she's gone to a convention with my husband.

I'm Mrs. Palmer.

Would you like to come in? How about a cup of tea?

Oh, that'd be just great, ma 'am.

Thank you.

I didn't know there were places where they held conventions around here. Where

is it? Over there.

And, uh, what am I supposed to do? Oh, I wouldn't worry about that.

Enjoy the scenery. It feels just like summer.

It's been quite a few years since we had such a wonderful spring.

Yeah?

We made pretty good time.

Get your bag.

Oh.

Well, that's it. Here we are, hon.

There's no convention hotel.

It's a chalet. What are we doing here? As a matter of fact, I told you a little

white lie.

I just wanted to spend the weekend with you.

That's all. What? I want you to drive me home.

What do you think I am?

But, Rose Lee, come off it. It's not what you think.

You can sleep in the guest room if you want to.

You can even lock yourself up in it.

Oh, come on.

Let me take you to the room, and while you unpack, I'll prepare a picnic.

All right, I'll stay.

But you've got to give me your word of honor that you'll behave. I promise.

I'm out of tea, so I made coffee.

Oh.

One lump or two? Just one.

All right.

Hmm.

I find you a rather nice boy, George, so I'll tell you the whole truth.

My husband tends to tell me cock and bull stories.

For instance, I happen to know there's no convention this week.

Now, you got me worried.

What are you saying? Nothing special.

My guess is that they aren't shooting clay pigeons at some fair.

He probably conned your girl, Rosalie, into spending the weekend with him. Oh,

he usually does that with all his new employees.

You're lying through your teeth.

Don't give me that crap. I know, Rosalie, women aren't all bitches, you

I'm no bitch either.

It's simply that most girls seem incapable of resisting my husband.

Your girl's no different.

He'll find a way to her. In fact, he's very good.

He's an exceptional lover.

That's why I'm still around.

I tell you what, I'm no slouch either when it comes to that.

Ah, well, prove it to me.

All right, I'll prove it to you.

Like it here? Sure do.

So beautiful.

What's that?

Oops.

Right here.

Just the right place for a picnic. What do you say?

What I got in that basket is real special.

So I'll be able to read your mind.

My mind is filled with the purest of thoughts. And mine with impure. So let

trade.

Here's some more.

It's made out of fish eggs. Don't lick it, chew it.

Goes by the name of caviar.

Oh, little fish.

Come on, come on.

All right, I will.

What do you say?

Huh?

I like it.

It's true, George. You make love damn well.

I must say, Rosalie's got me real puzzled. You keep any woman satisfied.

We never got together long enough so I could prove it to her.

Ah, I see what you mean.

Take my advice. If you ever find your Rosalie again, don't keep her guessing.

The quicker she finds out how good you are, the better off she'll be. To be

loved by a good lover is the best thing that can happen to a girl.

Next chance I get, she's in for it.

Ah, if you agree, you and me can make a pact, George.

We're going to teach them a little lesson they're not about to forget.

A lesson? What kind of a lesson? Huh? All right, then. Got an idea?

Yes, I have.

We'll be giving our annual mask ball tomorrow.

The guests are all supposed to arrive wearing some mask, and no one is

to know who's behind the masks. But I'm sure to know what my husband and Rosalie

are wearing.

Let's you and me prepare a little surprise for them. Then, with a bit of

the girls will each get back her own stud.

Tell me, what if your wife finds out? Why should she find out?

I don't know, but I won't be able to look her in the eyes tomorrow.

She'd guess in a jiffy.

Well, if you keep examining your toes, she'll guess too.

Huh? Come on, now.

Don't worry. You'll be wearing a mask, silly.

You won't even know who you are. That's right.

I am being silly. I forgot.

Come on, let's go.

Huh? Hello, Morris.

What makes you think I'm Morris? Who else would be wearing a Russian shirt

it's with kippah?

Joe? No.

Bill? No. Benny?

Yes, Ken.

Ronnie Regan. Ah.

You're a chic chic.

Petroleum is chic, then I guess I'm chic.

to make our move.

I've got us two flowers so we can recognize each other.

They'll know our voices.

Will you stop worrying?

Voices sound like muffled inside a mask. Yeah, sure.

Hi. Hi, beautiful.

My specialty is a kachuchka.

Here, let me fasten that flower for you. I wouldn't want it to get trampled in

that feed.

I look good, don't I?

Where are you going?

put on your mask here comes rosalie come

on good luck there you are where have you been all my life

right here honey

Your wife has noticed?

You're beautiful.

Why, thank you. Let's sit down.

Shouldn't you know?

Why not?

Oh yeah.

Come on.

Let's crash when there's still room. Okay.

I love the way you dance.

You're a pretty good dancer yourself.

No. Let's get away from the crowd.

Follow my lead. You know I'd never lead you astray.

I love the feel of your skin.

Come here.

I'm glad we brought our own sheep.

They're part of my true self.

You're kidding.

No, my mother had one in the backyard when I got married to show everybody I

a virgin.

Good God, you've got a beautiful body.

Yeah.

Look, it's midnight.

It's midnight. Take off your mask. Let the real party get underway.

I'm getting you out right now. Get your clothes on. Let's get out of this place.

Come on.

You like it, huh?

Like the way the medicine man screws you.

I want to see your face.

I bet you've got cum written all over it.

It'll sneak. That's a pretty dirty trick. Yeah, and I forgive you for

do it.

Take off your dress.

You know what?

I'm glad to be here.

Good night, Rosalie.

Come in with me. I don't want to stay alone tonight.

You're kidding.

If your mother catches me, she'll stick a fork into me. You want her to kill me

or what?

I know you love me.

I'll leave the door open for you. Wait five minutes and come in.

Make sure you don't make any noise.

I think I'd better make up my will.

Are you sure you're not asleep?

We'll find out. Yeah.

What are you doing here?

What's more, you're not alone.

I'm with my fiancé.

George is my fiancé.

But what's he doing here?

Well, you see, what I'm doing is I was asking for her hand. With your

permission, of course, madame.
