you later at the apartment.

>> All right.

Douglas, must you tap your fingers?

>> I know what's wrong with you. You've

been a bachelor much too long.

>> Douglas

>> Ellen, darling, what a wonderful

surprise. But I didn't expect you until

tomorrow. I couldn't stand another

moment without you. And so I took the

plane tonight instead.

>> Darling, you're lovelier than ever.

How's your mother?

>> She's fine.

That's from mother.

>> And this is from me.

>> Oh, Douglas, I hate to interrupt, but

would you mind?

>> Obviously.

>> Miss Kinston, may I present Miss Hlet,

my fiance? How do you

>> Your what?

>> His fiancé

Douglas has told me so much about you.

>> Oh, he has, has he?

>> Well, he hasn't said a word about you.

And if you think for one minute that you

can toss me aside like like like an old

shoe,

>> you be quiet.

>> Ah, Linda. Steady. Steady.

>> Oh, I was warned about you, Douglas

Morrison. And don't think you're not

going to pay for this if it means hiring

every lawyer in Chicago. And if there

not enough lawyers in Chicago, I'll get

some from Philadelphia.

>> Thank you, Miss Hellet. You are

magnificent.

>> You're welcome, Mr. Morrison. I I hope I

was satisfactory.

>> Satisfactory? You were sensational. You

know, you get better every time.

Oh,

>> I almost forgot.

This is a list of calls that came after

you left the office.

>> Thank you,

Miss Andrews.

Barnes.

>> Well,

good night.

>> Oh, wait. Don't rush off. I have a

feeling the tornado may return.

>> Waiter.

>> Yes.

>> Another glass, please.

>> Yes.

>> You like champagne? I don't know.

>> You don't know? Well, then by all means,

you must have some.

>> Maybe just one.

>> That's the girl.

>> How is it?

>> Fine.

>> Just fine.

>> Here's to Ellen Howlet, the most

wonderful

The most wonderful secretary of man ever

had. Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Lena

Horn.

A dream is like stardust

that we never touch.

And you know you're dreaming

a little too much.

Someday that dreaming

will get you in touch.

Baby,

come out of the clouds.

You walk with the moon beams.

You talk to the stars

and you're painting rainbows

with musical bars.

That's just for people

who live up in Mars.

Baby,

come out of the clouds.

Don't tell me

that it's my imagination.

You know,

everything I've said is true.

Can it be

the same old situation

where the clouds

always get the best of you?

If you're like an angel,

then I'm out of line.

But then if you're human, just slip me

the side.

Drop down to earth's dear.

Say you'll be mine.

Baby,

come out of the cloud.

Don't tell me that it's my imagination.

You know,

everything I've said is true.

Can it be

the same old situation

where the clouds

always get the best of you? If you're

like an angel,

then I'm out of line.

But then if you're human, just slip me

the sign.

Drop down to Earth, dear.

Say you'll be mine,

baby.

Come out of the clouds.

Come out of the clouds.

Yeah, you're right. Okay,

stand still.

Ellen

have to get a new key.

>> Hi.

If I didn't know you better, I'd say

you've been drinking.

>> Oh, what you said. Ellen Howlet, you

have been drinking.

>> How'd you guess?

>> Well, I've never seen you like this

before.

>> I've never been like this before.

>> Come on in here and sit down. You better

have a little black coffee.

>> I don't want any black coffee.

>> Where have you been? With Mr. Morrison.

>> No.

>> Oh, yes.

>> Don't tell me he finally asked you for a

date.

>> Nope. Then what did happen?

>> Same thing that always happens. I swept

in. Mr. Morrison said, "Have you met

Miss Hell at my fian?"

>> I'd say Miss Wet your name swept out.

>> Oh no, not again. Ellen.

>> Yep. That That's me. Always lovely,

always engaged, but never a bride.

>> Listen, Ellen,

>> I must be using the wrong soap. Th

>> This is the most ridiculous situation

I've ever heard of. Pretending to be

that Playboy's fiance time after time

and making

>> I guess when you love someone, you do

all sorts of crazy things.

>> Why don't you let somebody else get rid

of his girlfriends for him? Tonight, for

instance, going into that nightclub and

making a spectacle of myself and

drinking.

>> You know what you ought to do? You ought

to go in there first thing tomorrow

morning and you ought to tell him what a

knucklehead he is, and then you should

quit.

Yes.

No, I'm terribly sorry. Mr. Morrison

isn't in yet. He doesn't usually come in

till about 11.

>> Here's a boss now.

>> Good morning, Anne.

>> Good morning. Good morning. Good

morning, Mr.

>> Good morning, Johnny. Good morning, Miss

Howard.

>> Good morning.

>> Well, to work.

Hey, you certainly saved my life last

night. Thanks a million.

>> How'd you save his life?

>> He was hit by a tornado.

>> Oh, by the way, Miss Howlet, how did you

manage to disappear so fast last night?

>> Magic. Learned it in India.

>> Oh.

>> Oh. Mr. Morrison, may I see you a

moment, please? Certainly. Come right

in.

>> Thank you. What can I do for you,

>> Mr. Morrison?

Mr. Morrison, I've been with you for 2

years now, and I feel

>> I agree with you. You want a raise, and

you're right. You should have a raise.

>> Oh, that's very nice of you, Mr.

Morrison, but that's not what I meant.

I'm just tired of it.

>> You want a vacation? Well, you're

certainly entitled to one. Hey, how

would you like to go to Sun Valley?

>> Sun Valley?

>> Yes. I'm going up there for a few weeks.

You could go with me. I know you're

planning on going to Bird City to visit

your mother, but I thought I might do

some work up there.

The rest of the time will be your own,

of course. It's a wonderful place to

relax. You'd fish, swim, play golf.

There'll be snow any day now. You could

ski. The company will pay all expenses,

of course. Well, what do you say,

>> Mr. Morrison? If if you feel that you

need me in Sun Valley, I'll be glad to

sacrifice my trip to Birch City.

>> Good. Good.

>> And Miss Howlet?

>> Yes, Mr. Morris.

>> You better call the railroad and make

the usual arrangements for my father's

private car. I might as well travel in

comfort.

>> Yes, of course.

Excuse me.

Excell.

Oh, Ellen, this is wonderful. It'll give

you a chance to show him those legs

you've been hiding under your desk for 2

years. Now, listen, Ellen, you go right

out and buy that evening dress. You

know, the one you told me about, the one

with the low, wicked neckline. Of course

it's low. What's the idea?

>> If you say so, Crisp.

But I don't know.

>> I I better hang up. I'll tell you all

about it when I get home tonight. Bye.

Oh, Mr. Morrison.

You mustn't hold me so tight.

Well, if you insist.

You dance divineely, Mr. Morrison.

Oh, why, I'd be happy to call you

Douglas. And you must call me Ellen.

Ellen,

if you can get rid of Charm Boy for a

minute, I'd like to see you alone. You

two haven't met, have you? Mr. Morrison,

I'd like you to meet my roommate, Miss

Duncan.

>> Well, how do you do? Delighted, I'm

sure.

He's uh he's a little thinner than I

expected.

He's wonderful.

Wait a minute. Is that the dress you

were telling me? How do you like that?

>> Oh, that's not what I call a low, wicked

necklace.

>> Well, I had them put the piece in this.

>> Oh, no. It's too much. That helps it a

little. Come here. Look in the mirror.

Isn't that better? You know, mother

always said if you're going to catch a

man, you may have to catch cold, too.

>> My mother should have spent more time

with your mother.

>> I think so, too.

>> Oh, I'll get it. Oh, if it's for me, I'm

not here.

>> Hello.

Hello, Mr. Morrison.

Yes, Mr. Morrison.

Of course, I understand perfectly.

No, it's quite all right. Thank you.

Thank you for calling.

What did he say?

Oh, it's just that

he decided it wouldn't look right if we

went to Sun Valley together.

He said it wasn't quite ethical.

>> Ethical?

The way that scheming Romeo operates.

And he's worried about ethics.

>> Now, Chrissy's right. You see, if if I

went up there and he went up there,

well, people may

>> Oh, he's the most egotistical, selfish

man I've ever heard of. Well, you call

him right back on the phone and tell

him.

>> No, I won't.

>> All right, I'll call him. I just love to

call that man.

>> Oh, honey, don't you realize the only

time he needs you is when some girl's

got him backed up against the wall and

he can't get rid of her. Why he'd send

for you like that if

I've got an idea.

Chris, your ideas are wonderful, but

they never work. This one will. Honey,

you said that before. Remember our

furlow in Persia? The Sha's Palace. How

did I know what kind of a market that

was? I'm from Kansas City. They don't

sell women in markets in Kansas City.

Don't interrupt me. I'm thinking now.

How will I work this? I'll work it out

myself. Got a vacation coming up anyhow.

Might just as well take it now. My

understudy could take over the show for

me. Alec wouldn't mind too much.

Ella, I'm going to Sun Valley.

Let's choo choo choo choo choo choo to

Idaho. Come on, let's go. Let's choo

choo choo to Idaho.

So, Mr. Engineer, let's hear that

whistle blow to let them know we're on

our way to Idaho.

Hey there, Bella. Soon we'll be in

Pocutella then Sun Valley

Mcnal. Tell the folks back home and shy.

Tell them to goodbye and let's choo choo

choo choo choo to Idaho. Come on, let's

go. Let's choo choo choo to Idaho.

>> What a drip is terrific on the youth in

Pacific. What a change from that covered

wagon day.

If those 49ers had these up toate

streamliners, they'd commute clear from

but to away.

Hey there, Porter. When we pass

Nebraska's border, lay my suits out. Get

my spurs and western boots out. If I'm

going west today, might as well go all

the way and chew to

pardon me folks, but if you ain't

observed, I'd like to announce that our

dinner served. And glancing at the menu,

I'm prone to say that the chef is a

cooking up a mess today. Now the full

course is a work of art and I most

highly recommend the alakart. The dining

car is open and it's straight ahead. The

first one there is the first one.

>> It's the custom here though it ain't the

rule.

>> If you're late then you wait in the

festival. and folks on a car. We aim to

please with the latest and the greatest

in facilities. Just got word from the

engineer. The green light shining and

the track is clear. We're breaking every

record and we ain't surprised. It's a

mighty locomotive that is dieselized.

It's our policy to excel in providing

for the comfort of the clientele. So

good people gathered here today. We got

a lot of more that we like to say, but

folks, we've got to disembark. So we

leave you now with this last remark.

From the east to the west, from coast to

coast, the Union Pacific is a formal.

>> Let's vacation

in the playground of the nation. Get

your snow boots. Yes. And get your

Eskimo suits. You can have your beach

resorts. I'll make good old sports.

That's June

July.

>> I enjoyed that myself.

>> Sorry.

Oh,

>> what did she get on?

>> Yes, sir. Of course, I can set the

table, but he won't let me in the

kitchen. I know more about cooking than

he'll ever know. I've got hundreds of

recipes. What chance does fell have to

ever show anything around here? I beg

your pardon, miss.

>> Yes.

>> Is Mr. Morrison expecting you?

>> Mr. Morrison, who is he?

>> The gentleman who belongs in this

private car, miss.

>> Private car? How am I supposed to know

this is a private car? The least Mr.

What's his name could do is put a sign

on the door.

>> Mr. What's his name is usually referred

to as Mr. Morrison, and you'll forgive

me, but there is a sign on the door.

Well, then it's obviously a very small

one.

>> It happens to be the only one we have.

Miss,

>> the young lady is perfectly right.

Matson, the sign is much too small, and

we humbly apologize. Madson, get a

larger sign.

>> But Mr. Morrison,

>> now?

>> Yes, sir. Oh, I pick a bigger sign.

That's in there. I

>> Oh. Uh, I was just whipping up an

omelette. I like to cook. Uh, sort of a

hobby.

>> It's very interesting.

>> Uh, you like to cook? No, I leave that

for the more talented people.

>> I beg your pardon, sir.

>> What is it?

>> You don't mind if I put the eggs in the

omelette, do you? You forgot them.

>> I do mind. Don't touch a thing, Matson.

>> Yes, sir.

>> I'll take care of everything myself.

Have you had breakfast?

>> Yes, I have. And I've interrupted yours.

Please forgive me.

>> Oh, it's no interruption. Would you like

a cup of coffee or something?

>> No. Thank you very much.

>> But if you leave now, I might never see

you again. Trains are very undependable.

People are always getting off.

>> Well, I won't be getting off till Sun

Valley.

>> What a coincidence. I'm going there,

too.

>> Well, that is a coincidence.

>> Yes. Then perhaps you let me see you in

Sun Valley. We'll have dinner. I might

even cook for you.

>> Well, that would be very nice, I'm sure.

>> Oh, wait a minute. I don't know your

name. I always like to know who I'm

cooking for.

>> Christine Duncan. Miss

>> Miss

>> Miss Christine Duncan. Lovely name,

lovely girl.

>> Goodbye, Mr. Morrison.

>> Oh, bye.

>> Bye.

>> Goodbye.

Excuse me. I'm sorry.

>> Isn't that your compartment, sir? Yes,

it is.

>> Shall I tell the lady her mistake?

>> No, no, no, no, no. I'll handle.

>> People usually knock,

>> but not when a lady's in distress.

>> Not in distress. I merely have something

in my eye.

>> Oh, it's probably a cinder.

>> How could it possibly be?

>> Now, just tilt your head back and relax.

And above all, keep calm.

>> I'm perfectly calm.

>> I can't do it if you talk. Please. Just

look up. Now, now look down. You know,

you're very pretty when you roll your

eyes.

>> Will you stop?

>> Just a minute. Just a minute.

>> It's in the other eye.

>> Oh, no wonder I couldn't find it now.

Ah, there it is.

Yeah. How's that better?

>> Fine. Thank you.

>> Yeah.

>> And uh goodbye.

>> Goodbye.

>> Yes. Goodbye.

>> Very well. I'm leaving.

>> But when you think of me, think of

Andrales. He took a thorn from a lion's

paw, and that animal never forgot him.

And he was a lion. Just remember that.

>> Porter. Porter.

>> Yes, Mom.

>> Porter. Somebody's moved into my

compartment. These are not my uh

>> This is compartment B. Mom, you're in C

next door.

Well, I certainly don't see how anyone

can tell. They all look just exactly

alike to me.

>> That's why we put the letter on the

door.

>> That's why you put the letter on the

door.

>> People usually knock.

>> Well, you might have said something. I

had no idea that was your compartment.

>> Oh, but I enjoyed waiting for you. I was

just sitting here wondering what it

would be like if I'd known you for a

long time.

>> Well, what was it like?

>> Wonderful. You come into the room and

kiss me hello. Then we settle down for a

nice long chat.

>> Well, since we haven't known each other

for a long time, and since I don't kiss

strangers, would you mind leaving?

This is my room, isn't it?

>> Yes, it is. Looks a lot like mine, don't

you think?

>> Uh, yes, quite a bit. Now, uh, if you

don't mind. I do mind, but I guess

there's nothing I can do about it.

Remember, Andric, and if you need

anything, my den is next door.

>> Thank you very much.

>> And don't get lost again. Remember, all

these compartments look alike.

>> Yes, I know. That's why they put the

letters on the door.

>> Oh,

>> bye.

>> Bye.

Now listen here, Andrew.

>> Miss Duncan, Mr. Morrison sends his

regards. He thought you might like a

little snack on route.

>> Well, how nice. Did he cook this

himself?

>> Cuz his talents are very diversified.

>> Say, Porter, who was that young lady in

the next compartment?

>> That's Miss Christine Duncan. She's

going to Sun Valley, too.

Betty, Mr. Morrison will be here

tomorrow and he want you to arrange a

wedding.

>> Yes, I know. Large white roses. Who is

it this time?

>> Miss Christine Duncan.

>> Christine Duncan.

>> Same girl Dick Lane sending red roses

to.

>> Never mind analyzing the situation,

Betty. Just take care of the roses.

>> Beware of thorns, Andrew, please.

>> Huh?

>> Oh, would you put those in there,

please?

>> Yes, ma'am.

>> Hello.

Yes. This is Miss Duncan.

Who? Mr. Lane.

Oh, the Cinderman.

Yes, they're here. Thank you.

Dinner tonight.

No. No. I'm afraid not.

>> Well, I don't know, baby. Uh, I'll try

to make it.

>> Wow.

>> We play till midnight, you know.

>> I don't care if you play all night. And

don't call me baby.

Well, that that's fine, Chris. Uh, I'll

see you later on tonight, then. Huh?

Bye.

>> Since Mhm.

>> Now listen here, Andrew Cle. Who?

Oh, Mr. Morrison.

All right, Douglas.

Oh, I'm I'm fine, thank you. And the

flowers are so beautiful. It It was very

thoughtful of you. How did you know? I

just adore white roses.

Thank you.

What? The window.

Oh, all right.

What about dinner tonight?

Wonderful.

Uh, which do you prefer, my cooking or

the hotels?

The hotels.

Oh, and mine tomorrow night. Fine. I'll

meet you in the lobby at 8:00.

>> Good. 8:00. Bye.

Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Peggy Elliot.

>> Of all things, just when I thought my

heart was free of all things, you had to

turn your charm on me. Oh, what a thrill

you gave me. I knew the heat was on.

Nothing on earth could save me. And when

we kissed, I was gone. Of all things, I

was the one who always said, "Of all

things." You never see me lose my head.

But just when I felt so certain, just

when I felt so smart, well, of all

things, I had to lose my heart.

of all things.

>> Uhhuh. Just when I thought my heart was

free.

>> You had to turn your charm on me. Oh,

what a thrill you gave me. I knew the

heat was on. Nothing on earth could save

me. And when we kissed, I was gone of

all things. I was the one who always

said of all things. You'll never see me

lose my head. But just when I felt so

certain, just when I felt so smart,

well, of all things,

of all things, I had to go and lose my

heart.

I was just thinking a girl as beautiful

as you must have many admirers.

>> M but no one in particular.

>> You mean there's no one special?

>> No one special.

>> What about the maestro?

Oh, I met him on the train. Nothing. But

what about you? A man as influential and

as attractive as you are must be pursued

constantly.

>> Well, it's hardly necessary. I always

stand still.

>> Now, as a matter of fact, Chris, I'm a

very lonesome man.

>> Good evening, Miss Duncan.

>> Oh, hello, Mr. Lane.

>> How are Morrison? Mind if I sit down?

>> Not at all. Not at all. Just thought I'd

drop by and apologize to Chris.

>> I have any idea what you'd be

apologizing about, Mr. Lane.

>> Oh, you know, on the train.

>> Oh, that I

>> We met over Cinda. Was in her eye.

Cinder.

>> She looks so helpless.

>> Would you care to dance?

>> I'd love to. You don't mind, do you,

Morrison?

>> Not at all. Just uh remember where you

found her.

>> Oh, I'll never forget.

You certainly have a very keen sense of

humor. I can just imagine what Douglas

thinks.

>> I know what I think.

>> I'm not interested in what you think,

Mr.

>> Why not?

>> And stop clutching me that way.

>> Is that better?

>> Much better. Now,

>> let me see. We We finish about midnight.

Suppose I pick you up at 1:00, then

driving to catch him for a little late

supper, and then

>> you don't seem to understand.

>> Too late. All right. I can make it

earlier. How's 12:30? I happen to have a

date with Mr. Morrison. Not

>> Oh, I don't blame you for being upset.

Why don't you get rid of mine?

>> Get rid of him?

>> Yeah.

>> Well, that's a wonderful idea. But call

me first. 12:15 sharp.

>> 12:15 sharp.

>> Now, you better take me back to the

table. After all, I am with Mr. Morris.

>> But not for long.

>> Well, as he is good as new. Thank you.

Oh, don't mention it.

>> Goodbye, Mr. Lane.

Goodbye.

>> I don't know what you're thinking,

Douglas, but I did have something in my

eye.

>> Don't give it another thought.

>> I must say he took advantage of an

embarrassing situation.

>> I don't blame him. I'm sure I'd have

done the same thing.

>> Now, would you care to dance with me?

>> I'd love to.

Oh, may I?

>> Oh, yes. Certainly.

>> Thank you. It's been a lovely evening,

Douglas.

>> Then why end it so soon?

>> Why indeed? Won't you come in?

>> Of course.

Oh,

well,

champagne.

>> Yes. A very charming gentleman sent that

to me when I was on the train.

>> Oh. Oh. Oh, yes. Yes. I forgot.

>> I saved it for a special occasion.

There.

It's much cozier, don't you think?

>> Oh, definitely.

Cigarette?

>> No, thank you. But I'd be happy to light

yours.

Thank you.

>> You're welcome.

>> Now, Doug, tell me all about yourself.

>> Well, uh, just what would you like to

know?

>> Well, do you like being a bachelor?

>> Oh, yes. Yes, indeed.

>> What a shame.

Aren't you interested in knowing

something about me?

>> Oh, I certainly am. After all, you you

have no idea of what sort of girl I am.

>> A lurid past?

>> No, it's not the past I'm thinking

about. It's the future.

>> Future?

>> Certainly. A girl has to think about her

future. She has to be sure she finds

just the right man at the right time.

>> Oh, I'm sure a girl as beautiful and

charming as you will have little trouble

finding just the right man at just the

right time.

>> I'm glad you find me beautiful and

charming. So glad, Doug.

What time is it

>> time?

>> Mhm.

>> Why? Uh

>> 12:15. Why?

>> 12:15.

Well, I uh I was just wondering. I uh I

wanted to remember

the exact time of our first kiss.

A

>> excuse me.

>> Hello. Yes, this is she.

Oh, father.

>> Father?

>> Really? Oh, I'm so sorry.

Well, hold the line just a moment.

Father, it's my father. There seems to

be some family trouble. Well, it's

rather personal. I I'm so sorry, but you

do understand, don't you, Doug?

>> Oh, yes. Yes. Yes.

>> I'm so sorry this had to happen.

>> Well, I hope I hope it's nothing

serious.

>> Oh, I'm sure it isn't. I'll call you

first thing in the morning.

>> Oh, yes. Do.

>> Good night.

>> Good night, Chris. Oh, remember me your

father.

>> Oh, all right. Good night.

>> Good night.

Hello, Dick. It's been so nice talking

to you.

>> It's been nice talking to you.

>> Good night.

>> What do you mean good night? What about

our date? Hey.

>> Uh, what happened?

>> I'm a father.

>> Congratulations.

>> Hi, Papy.

>> Where's the cigars?

>> Hey, fellas. We're on

Heat.

Heat.

Hi, land lover.

>> Hi, baby.

>> Oh,

>> why don't you come in? It's wonderful.

>> Don't you think I don't pass, silly? Oh,

>> a come on in. I've been swimming around

for hours.

>> Oh, you poor kid. You must be so

But that wasn't very nice.

>> Well,

>> nothing like a quick swim.

>> There's your right.

>> I'll see you later.

>> Oh, don't forget our dinner date

tonight.

>> How could I? I'm the cook.

>> Oh, maybe before long I'll be doing the

cooking.

>> Yes.

Who knows?

Hi.

>> Where'd you come from?

>> Florida. But we moved to Seattle when I

was 10.

>> Well, it's too bad you ever left

Seattle.

>> Oh, Chris.

>> Oh, yes, Doug.

>> How about Wild Duck for dinner?

>> Adore Wild Duck.

>> Good.

>> A. So, you want to play, huh?

>> Sure. I want to play.

Hey, look out. I might drown.

>> People like you never drown.

>> Oh, yeah. See how you like it.

>> Yeah.

>> Hey, you're pretty good.

>> Not bad yourself.

>> Hey, speaking of games, what kind of a

game are you and Morrison playing?

>> I don't think that's any of your

business.

>> Oh, I don't know. Since last night, I've

developed quite a fatherly interest in

Oh,

>> I'm sorry about that. Really, I am.

You're not really serious about this

playboy, are you?

>> Don't be absurd. I hardly know it.

>> Hey, wait a minute. What are you doing

this afternoon?

>> I'm going fishing.

>> Morrison?

>> No. Trout?

>> How about dinner tonight?

>> Having dinner.

>> Trout?

>> Morrison?

>> Uh, I don't get it.

>> Well, it's very simple. Mr. Morrison

asked me to dine with him and I

accepted. He's going to cook for me.

>> There's a new angle.

>> We're going to have Wild Duck. He shot

it himself.

>> He would. All extra sour grapes.

Let's see now. What next? Uh, sliced

ham. Sliced ham. Sliced ham. Rans,

where'd you put the ham?

>> The ham is on the plate, sir.

>> Oh, on the plate. Oh, yes. I

>> think you can see it right in front of

you. No.

>> Now,

Swiss cheese. Cheese? Where's the

cheese?

>> The cheese is on the platter, sir. Next

to the green peppers.

>> On the platter. On the platter. Nobody

will be able to eat the dinner anyway

when I can mess with that.

>> There. That does it.

>> Yeah, that does it. All right.

>> Isn't she a beautiful girl?

>> They always are. Don't forget the oil,

sir.

>> Why then?

>> The oil.

>> Oh. Oh, the oil. Oh, yes.

>> And the salt and pepper.

>> Salt and pepper.

>> The lettuce naturally is in the bowl.

You'll have no trouble with that. I

mean,

>> how's that?

That must be Miss Duncan. I'm not ready.

I'm not ready.

>> Well, shall I keep the young lady

occupied until this popery is ready?

>> Yes, please do. Please do, Madison. I'll

be ready in a minute. Huh? Oh. Oh,

>> himself an epic cure. Cook a better meal

than that on a hot plate if I do myself.

Oh, well, that's

>> Oh, good evening, Miss Duncan.

>> Good evening, Matson.

>> Mr. Morrison's in the kitchen murdering

I mean preparing dinner.

>> It can't be that bad.

>> Yes, it can, Miss Duncan. I wouldn't

want Mr. Morrison to know. But ever

since I've been with him, bicarbonate

and I have become inseparable.

>> Hello there, fella. How are you? Huh?

>> Well, fall staff, Miss Duncan asked you

a question. Why don't you answer her?

>> Well, don't tell me he talks.

>> Not recently. You see, he hasn't said a

word to anyone since he had lunchon at

the White House. I'll tell Mr. Morrison

you're here.

>> Ah, close the door.

>> Flaze in a draft.

>> Yes, sir.

>> Was that Miss Duncan? Yes, it was, sir.

Oh, now everything's ready. It's play

salad.

Duck dessert.

Where's my coat?

>> It's probably in the salad. Where?

>> Oh, there it is. I trust you made Miss

Duncan feel at home.

>> She's very comfy with false staff, sir.

>> Splendid. Splendid.

>> Your hat.

>> Well, I want with my hand. Oh, I see.

Now, remember, Matson, don't touch a

thing. All you have to do is toss the

salad.

>> Toss the salad.

prepare the dinner the way it should be

prepared.

>> I uh I hope you enjoyed the dinner,

Chris.

>> Oh, I did, Douglas. It was wonderful.

Delicious.

>> Thank you.

>> Thank you.

>> Now, let's see. Uh where did we leave

off?

>> Well, I

>> Oh, yes. I

What have I ever done to the telephone

company? Excuse me. I'll take it back.

>> Oh, very well, sir. Well, I'm glad you

found the dinner palatable, Miss Duncan.

Well,

>> as a matter of fact, Matson, I found it

very disappointing.

>> You mean you didn't like the sule?

>> It was flat.

>> What about the duck?

>> Greasy.

>> And the salad? Uh,

strange. I thought the salad was rather

good. However, I guess I could be wrong.

>> Well, can I wait till I get back? Okay,

Ellen. Right away. Thank you. Bye,

>> Madson.

>> Yes, sir.

>> I have to take the next plane to

Chicago. Make the reservations, will you

please?

>> Very well, sir.

>> What is it, Doug?

>> I'm sorry, Chris, but something

unexpected just came up. I have to be in

Chicago tonight.

>> Do you have to go? I don't want to lose

you now.

>> Believe me, I don't want to leave

either. It'll only be a few days. It's a

business matter, and Alan says it's

extremely important.

I just knew it was another woman.

>> Another woman.

>> You said Ellen.

>> Ellen's my secretary. Oh,

>> what about it?

>> Oh, nothing except the way you say her

name. I

>> How'd I say it?

>> You said Ellen.

>> I did? Well, that's her name.

>> She's probably very attractive.

>> I wouldn't know. I can just see you

giving dictation and staring at her

beautiful legs.

>> Alan hasn't got any legs.

>> What?

>> I mean, I never noticed them.

>> Suppose you never noticed her eyes

either, huh?

>> Her eyes. Of course I've noticed them.

How could I help it? One goes this way,

the other goes that way.

>> How could you possibly say such a thing?

I mean,

>> Chris, I really believe you're jealous.

>> Well, of course I am. You're probably in

love with her and you don't even realize

it.

>> How did you get to be such an authority

on love?

>> I beg your pardon, sir, but if you're

going to

catch the next plane, you haven't much

time.

>> All right. All right,

>> Douglas. Let me help you pass.

>> Oh, you needn't bother. Matson can take

care of

>> I'd love to. After all, I've got to get

used to doing these little things for

you.

>> Don't go, Matson. You haven't been

replaced yet.

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. All you

brothers, sisters, too. I'm glad you

came along cuz we're gathered here to

learn about right and wrong.

>> Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Glad to see you.

How'd you do?

>> I'm so happy I could shout. I'm more

than gratified to see this fine turn

out.

>> Yeah.

>> Now, before I start on my address, I'll

call the role. Just answer. Yes. Sister

Peggy.

>> Yes. Deacon.

>> Brother Troop.

>> I'm ahead. Deacon.

>> What's the matter with brother Brown?

>> Sorry, Deacon, but I'm feeling down.

>> Brother Chuck. Well, I'm here, Deacon.

>> Brother Johnny,

>> speaking. Deacon,

>> is everybody present?

>> Yes, indeed. We're all here, Deacon.

>> Then let's proceed. Some do right and

some do wrong. To one of these

categories, you belong. But just in case

there's any doubt, let me straighten you

out. Then that does and then that don't

and them that says they will but won't.

go of certain temps you hold on tight

cuz you can't do wrong doing right.

There's them that's good and them that's

mean and them that's somewhere in

between. But it looks to me from what

I've seen that you can't do wrong doing

right. Look at that gal Delila. She had

them all in a spin. She clipped the

mighty Samson, but she got caught when

the house fell in. So you see, there's

got to be just one road for you and me.

Let Satan know he's lost the fight cuz

you can't do wrong doing right.

>> Now I open my book and I turn the page

and I see where we're living in a mighty

age with television and rocket planes

and air condition on streamline trains.

>> That's right, Deacon. That ain't all.

This could all lead to mad downfall.

>> That's right, children. So, don't lose

sight of the basic things of wrong and

right.

>> Them that shall

>> and them that shall

>> and them that wish they could but can't.

But it's them that does that sees the

light.

>> Cuz you can't do wrong doing right.

>> Right.

>> Is them that's meek and them that's

bold.

>> Don't ask me, but I've been told it's

the meek that plays them popsicles.

>> You can't do wrong doing right.

>> Right. Look at old big lion

>> bragging about his size

taking a little David. Yes, but he got

his right between the eyes. And so you

see it's got to be just one road for you

and me. Let Satan know he's lost the

fight. Cuz you can't do wrong doing

right.

>> You say you can't do wrong doing right.

>> I got it.

>> Oh, you can't do wrong doing right.

>> Reiterate it.

>> No, you can't do wrong doing right.

>> Let him hear it. You never

with you.

>> No, I think I'll wait a little while.

Thank you.

>> Good evening, Mr. Duncan.

>> Good evening, Mr. Lake.

>> I trust you enjoyed your dinner with Mr.

Morrison.

>> Oh, I did. It was wonderful. Delicious.

>> Fine. Fine. If you excuse me.

Hello, Elanor.

>> Hello, Dick. Your number was wonderful.

Oh,

>> thanks.

>> Oh, I'd like you to meet Mr. Brown, Mr.

Me.

>> Gentlemen, may I borrow his power for

this dance?

>> Ellie,

>> I'd love it. Excuse me.

>> Why don't you dance for us, Ellen?

>> Oh, Dick, don't be silly.

>> Hello, Elanor. Hello, Lorraine.

>> Are you going to dance for us?

>> The boys don't know my music.

>> Oh, yes we do.

>> Oh, Chuck.

I'm

>> afraid you're stuck.

>> You wouldn't dare.

>> Oh, wouldn't I?

>> Oh,

>> darling, give me a spotlight.

>> Please don't.

>> Ladies and gentlemen, one of our guests

has very graciously

consented to dance for us. I'd like you

to meet Miss Eleanor Powell.

is many Italian.

>> What do you mean?

>> Go to work. Do something.

>> All right.

Oh,

heat, heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Thank you, Illinois. You've made us very

happy, gentlemen.

>> Still here?

>> Of course, I'm still here. I wanted to

see Miss Paul dance. Where is uh Daniel

Boone?

>> If you mean Mr. Morrison, he was called

back to Chicago for a few days.

>> Would you like to sit down?

>> Thanks.

>> Mr. Lane,

Dick,

>> do you know why I came in here tonight?

>> You were hungry.

>> No, I wasn't hungry. I wanted to talk to

you about something to explain.

>> Go ahead. Go ahead.

Well, in the first place, I didn't have

dinner tonight with Morrison because I

wanted to.

>> No, no, you were dragged there by wild

horses.

>> Of course, I wasn't dragged.

>> I've heard that before.

>> I'm trying to help out a friend.

>> I see.

>> You don't see at all. Now, we had an

idea. That is, I had an idea. And I

>> I thought if I came up here and Marrison

were here, then

>> listen again. This is getting better all

the time.

>> If you're not going to listen to me, I

don't listening. Is getting very

interesting. Go on,

>> Mr. Lane. If you care anything about a

person, you Well, will you trust them?

>> Miss Duncan, I wouldn't trust you as far

as I could throw Mount Baldi.

>> I'm obviously wasting your time, Mr.

Lane. Good night,

>> Chris.

Chris, wait a minute.

>> Chris, I'm sorry. Don't leave. In a few

minutes, I'll be through and then we can

>> You're through now, Mr. the lane.

>> Chris, wait a minute.

>> Wait a minute, Chris. I apologize.

>> You already did.

>> All right, then. I apologize again. Now,

all you have to do is apologize to me

and we can forgive each other.

>> And all you have to do is leave me alone

and that'll take care of everything just

fine.

>> Oh, Chris,

I'm all alone out here and it's very

lonesome.

>> Hi.

>> Hi.

Anyway, I think it's better for the

children if we stay together.

>> At least until we can talk it over.

>> Hey, what's going on out here?

>> Uh, little family argument.

>> Are you completely out of your mind?

>> She's being very unreasonable.

>> If you don't leave, I'm going to call

the manager.

>> If you don't let me in, I'll start

hollering again.

>> I don't care if you holler your head

off.

>> Think about Little Richard and Little

Christopher.

>> Come in here. Come in.

Do you realize the scene you just made?

>> Uh-huh.

>> You are the most impossible man I've

ever known in my life.

>> Oh, Chris, as long as we're not married,

I don't see why we can't manage to get

along.

>> Look, it's starting to snow. You

wouldn't turn me out on a night like

this, would you?

>> You said you didn't trust me. You said

that.

>> Oh, Chris, I said a lot of things I

didn't mean. Lots of things.

Well, I was only trying to explain

things to you to tell you that the

reason I came here.

>> No more explanations, huh? No more.

>> All right, then. No more questions

either.

>> Just one more, teacher.

>> What is it?

>> Well, I thought tomorrow we could have

breakfast together, then lunch, then

dinner, and some dancing. And the

following day we we could go ice skating

and then have lunch at the ram and

dinner at Ketchum. And the day after

that there'll be enough snow and then we

can go skiing. Huh? That's the question.

Will you? Oh, well, the answer is yes.

>> A I knew it would be.

>> Now, don't you think you better go?

>> All right.

>> After all, you got to get back to work.

They're waiting down there. This is

better than fighting, isn't it? I think

it's much better. Good night,

>> oh,

>> what in the world am I doing out there?

I live here.

>> This is pretty ridiculous.

>> Excuse me.

>> Once a long time.

buses are ready, Mr. L. We better go.

>> I'll be right with you.

>> All right.

>> Hey, Dick. Come on. Hurry up.

>> Want to take the skis? No, I can bet it.

Has

it been a wonderful day?

>> Yeah, I wonder. How about dinner time?

>> Pardon me, Miss Duncan. Your

long-distance call to Chicago is ready.

>> Oh, all right. I'll be right there.

Excuse me,

>> Morrison.

>> Hey, no more questions, remember?

>> Well, if it is, Morrison, tell them it's

90 below and they've evacuated all the

women.

>> Yes, Chris.

Well, I I haven't had a chance to see

him alone yet. He's been so busy. One

conference after another.

Well, what do you expect me to do? Trip

him as he goes by? And if he's worrying

about being involved, he certainly isn't

losing any sleep over it. As a matter of

fact, he seems too anxious to get back

to Sunbell.

Chris, something just came up. I got to

go. I'll I'll I'll call you back.

Well, gentlemen, frankly, both my father

and I feel strongly

the addition of another railroad at this

time at this time.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

Sorry.

Excuse me. Like father, like son.

>> If it isn't Linda, what can I do for

you?

>> Not a thing. I heard you were in town

and just dropped in for a friendly

visit.

>> Oh, that was very nice of you. Very

nice.

>> By the way, Doug, how's that sweet

little girl you're engaged to?

>> Fine. Fine. Now, Linda,

>> incidentally, Doug, I want you to be

sure and come to my wedding.

>> Fine.

>> I'm marrying the jeweler you bought

these from.

>> Wedding? Did you say your wedding?

>> Yes, I did.

>> Oh, fine. Fine. Congratulations. I know

it's not like you, Douglas, but if you

do decide to marry your fiance, we're

having a sale on wedding rings.

>> Well, and I'm busy board meeting. You

know how they are. Well, goodbye, Linda.

And congratulations again.

>> Goodbye, Douglas. And thanks for

everything.

>> You're welcome,

>> Miss Howlet. Miss How?

>> Yes, I'm coming. Miss Howlet,

nice going, Miss Howlet. You can come

out now.

I said

Miss Howlet.

Ellen.

Ellen.

>> What happened?

>> Are you hurt?

My goodness, Mr. Mars, now.

>> Oh, don't don't don't go away. I'll be

right with you.

>> Yes, Mr.

>> Helen. Miss Helen.

>> Oh my goodness. Must have bumped my

head.

>> Oh, I'm sorry, Ellen. Terribly sorry.

>> Oh, that's all right, Mr. Morrison.

Oh, only if I'm going to have to do this

very often.

You'll have to get me a bigger desk.

>> I'll get you anything you want. Just

don't hurt yourself again. Ever.

Helen, you are hurt. Stay right there.

Don't move. Stay calm. Let me see you.

First aid kit. That's it. Where is it?

>> Where?

>> Filing cabinet.

>> Filing cabinet, of course.

>> Under what?

under the filing cabinet.

>> Oh, of course. Where else? Silly me.

Now, let's see now. Uh, aspirin,

epicanak, milk, iodine. Iodine not to be

taken internally.

>> Oh, please, Mr. Morrison. Really? I'm

quite all right.

>> What? I better Here, take it easy. Are

you sure you're all right?

>> True.

>> I wouldn't want anything.

You know, you have beautiful eyes, Miss

Hall.

Mr. Morrison, I'm the one who was bumped

on the head.

>> No, I mean it.

Can't understand why I haven't told you

that before.

>> Miss Hellet.

>> Yes, sir.

>> Miss Hellet, I have 4 hours before I

leave for Sun Valley. There's something

important I want you to do.

>> Yes, Mr. Morrison.

>> Have dinner with me.

>> Who? Me?

>> Yes, you. And anywhere you say?

Anywhere.

>> Anywhere.

>> Hello. Come in.

>> I hope I'm very early. I've been ready

for hours.

>> So I see.

>> Well, maybe not for hours.

>> In fact, I'm not ready at all.

>> Oh, for you.

>> Oh, thank you.

If you're not careful, you'll spoil me.

>> That's my specialty, you know.

>> Yes, I know. Oh, here. I'll take that.

>> Oh, thank you.

>> Scarf.

>> Thank you.

>> By the way, how's your hand? Oh,

Well, this is a beautiful apartment.

Looks just like you. It's so uh so uh

meet her.

>> Uh she uh

she's uh out of town right now.

>> Oh.

What smells so good?

>> Biscuits. My specialty.

>> Oh,

wonderful.

>> I hate to admit it, but uh I think

you're an even better cook than I am.

>> I've had more time to practice. Maybe

that's it.

I did have a new dress to wear.

>> An evening dress.

>> I'm glad you didn't wear it. I like you

just like this.

>> Thank you.

>> Don't look now, but your marshmallow is

being cremated.

>> Oh. Oh,

>> marshmallow.

>> No, I I have one.

>> I suppose you're anxious to get back to

Sun Valley. To tell the truth, I am. I

met a girl there who intrigues me.

>> Really?

>> What's she like?

>> I'm not sure.

She's very

intriguing.

>> Yeah, intriguing.

>> If you need any help, that is if she's

bothering you.

>> Oh, no. No, it's no father.

In fact, I'm rather enjoying it.

>> You are?

>> I can't quite figure her out.

Intriguing.

I thought for a while I'd have to send

you an SOS.

>> You did?

>> But I've changed my mind.

>> Oh.

>> I've decided she's just a very honest,

forthright sort of girl.

Something you don't find very often.

intriguing.

>> Hello.

>> I hate to leave, but I don't want to

miss my plane.

>> No, you mustn't miss your plane. I'll

get your coat.

>> Oh, don't bother. I'll get it.

>> Alan.

>> Yes. Before I go, there's there's

something I'd like to ask you.

>> Yes.

>> Could I have the recipe for those

biscuits?

>> Certainly, Mr. Morrison.

>> Thanks.

I'll wire you the biscuits.

>> Do that.

>> Hello.

Hello, Chris.

>> I can't hear you.

You can't hear me?

>> That's funny cuz I can hear you.

>> Have you been drinking champagne again?

>> Chris, listen to me. You get back here

and right away and you can stop being so

honest and forthright, too.

>> I hope you know what you want because if

you ever do land this fella, you're

going to have your hands full.

Uh, just a minute. Come in, Dick.

All right. All right, I'll uh I'll check

with you regarding latest developments.

Bye, Ellen. Bye.

>> Who is Ellen?

>> Uh she's my girlfriend. She's having a

little problem in engineering.

>> Chris, don't you

>> look

the ski pageant's already started.

Oh, isn't it beautiful?

>> So are you.

>> We'd uh we'd better be going. We

promised to be in this. You know,

>> I never felt less like skiing in my

life, too.

Go.

Heat.

Heat.

Shoot that door. Find your own. You ever

know the world and dominate home?

Prominade. You know where and I don't

care. Oh, the little lady right about

there.

>> Ladies and gentlemen, the judge.

>> Thank you, man. Will you contestants

come a little closer?

Now, for our next and final event, we're

going to have a little contest to select

the Duchess of Idaho.

>> Will this young lady please assist me?

Now, while these young ladies are

passing among you with these potatoes,

I'll demonstrate just what you've got to

do. You hold the potato with your hands.

Don't use your hands and then dance.

Now, the couple dancing the longest

without dropping the potato wins the

contest. The lady wins the title and the

gentleman wins the lady if he's lucky.

Of course, that's up to the lady. Now,

will everybody get to your places? We uh

we may change the tempo, so watch out.

Now, everybody dance.

You're pretty good at this.

>> I could do better if I were closer.

>> Pay attention.

>> I'm terribly sorry. That's perfectly all

right.

Heat.

Heat.

We have triple number nine. Come to the

red, please.

Mr. Mr. Lane, I declare you the winners

of the contest.

A bring forth the royal scepter.

And last but not least, the royal crown.

Now ladies and gentlemen, we happen to

have with us tonight a celebrity from

Hollywood who has kindly considered to

crown the lovely lady. I refer to no

other than that great personality of

stage screen and radio, Mr. Red Skelton.

Hello.

Well, this is really you both look

awfully familiar to me.

>> The crown.

>> Oh, yes.

Miss Duncan, it's an honor to crown you

the Duchess of Idaho.

>> I carry my own bulbs if you run out.

>> I would like to add, Miss Duncan, that

you're the prettiest lady that a potato

ever laid eyes on. Of course, being from

Hollywood, beautiful girls don't bother

me at all. After a while, you just sort

of get used to them.

Bye.

the platform on me when I went to look.

>> Come and get it. Come and get it.

>> All right, boys.

>> I'll get you something to eat.

>> Hi.

>> What do you want? Hamburgers, hot dogs,

a ham?

>> Oh, I love hamburgers.

>> Barbecue sauce.

>> Love barbecue sauce. What about the

waiter?

>> Excuse me, Mr. Lane. I have a message

for you for Mr. Le Blanch.

>> Love Blanch.

>> I think I better convey the message in

private.

>> Excuse me, Chris.

>> All right, sir. What is

>> Well, Mr. Leblanc seems to think that

since he's paying you to lead the band,

that that's what you should be doing.

>> An extremely narrow-minded man. What?

>> Well, he said you could stay as long as

you want, but if you're not back in 10

minutes, you're fired.

>> You're a good man, Sarah. You go in

there and get yourself a plate of food,

and then tell the blind that it's mighty

decent enough of an understanding.

Mighty Jesus. Thank you.

>> I hope the blanch isn't angry about you

taking the night off.

>> Angry. Angry. No, he was delighted. You

know what he said?

>> Now what he said?

>> He said, "Sirill, you tell that nice

young man, Dick, to enjoy himself and

not to hurry back."

>> He did.

>> Yes, he did.

>> Just imagine.

>> You know what else he said?

>> No. What else?

>> He said, "Sirill, you tell Dick you've

been patient long enough. Tell him it's

about time he asked that beautiful young

lady how she feels about him."

>> About Sirill?

>> About me?

Well, Blanch is dying to know this.

>> Well, you tell Sirill to tell a Blanch

>> that I think you're a very unusual young

man and that

>> Excuse me a minute, Dick. Don't go away.

I'll be right back.

>> I'm not going any place.

Dark.

>> Chris, start.

>> I didn't expect you back so soon.

>> Yes, I should have let you know.

>> Well, it it's perfectly all right, but

Well, won't you come in?

>> No thanks. If you don't mind, I think

I'll turn in early tonight.

>> Oh,

>> you stay. Have a good time.

>> Well, if you insist. But of course, it

it won't be the same without you. But

I'll do my best.

>> I'm sure you will.

Good night, Doug.

>> Good night.

>> I'll call you later.

>> Do that.

>> Excuse me.

>> Oh, Sarah,

have you seen Mr. Lane around anywhere?

>> Yeah, he went out the back way. He went

out the back way.

>> Said to tell you he was going to brush

up on his cooking.

>> I didn't know he could cook.

>> Huh?

>> What do you mean by that?

>> Never mind, Sarill. I know what he

meant.

>> Did you locate Miss Duncan?

>> Oh, yes. I located Miss Duncan.

>> She just called, sir.

>> Oh.

>> Said to tell you she'd meet you tomorrow

morning at the ski lift and explain

everything.

>> That should be interesting.

Fix me something to eat, will you,

Matson?

>> You wish me to prepare something for you

to eat?

>> That's right. That's right.

>> Yes, sir. In for the best dinner he ever

had. I can tell that right now.

>> Oh, I nearly forgot, sir. This uh

telegram came while you were gone.

>> Oh, brother Williamson.

>> Uh, yes, sir.

>> It's from Miss How, sir.

>> From Ellen. Well, read it.

>> Yes, sir.

Merger successfully concluded. All

parties agreed. Stop.

>> Is that all?

>> No. There's something is very confusing.

I can

>> Well, read it. Read it. Read it.

>> Two cups flour, four teaspoons baking

powder, 1 teaspoon salt. Shall I

continue, sir?

>> Yes. Naturally, it's very interesting.

>> 4 to 6 tablespoon shortening, 3/4 cup

milk, and a pinch of soda. Hope the

biscuits are a success. Stop, Ellen.

Give it to me.

I have biscuits by telegram. Manson.

>> Yes, sir.

>> What do you think of Miss Hall?

>> Well, to be perfectly frank, sir, I I

hardly ever think of her. But if I did,

I should say she's a very pleasant young

lady, though I can't say the same for

her biscuits.

>> I hope you understand about last night,

about Dick. I mean, Mr. Lane,

>> of course I do, Chris.

>> You do?

>> Of course you are lonesome. I don't

blame you a bit.

>> You know, Doug, you're not only the most

attractive man I know, you're the most

understanding.

>> I am?

>> You certainly are. Now, are you sure

you're warm enough?

>> Oh, yes. Yes. I'm fine.

Heat.

Heat.

Oh god.

Oh

well, that's what I get from watching

you.

>> Take it easy.

>> My back.

>> Are you hurt, Chris?

>> Oh, no. I'm fine, darling. As long as I

have you to take care of me. Oh, well,

perhaps we better go up to the

roundhouse and get something warm to

drink.

>> All right. Anything you say,

>> Chris?

>> Yes, darling.

>> This will probably come as a surprise to

you, but

I'm in love.

>> You're You're in love? For the first

time in my life, I'm sincerely in love.

>> Well, uh, when when did you decide this?

>> I don't know the exact moment.

>> Well, suppose she isn't in love with

you, Doug.

>> Oh, I think she is. She'd have to be to

put up with me all this time. She's a

wonderful girl.

>> Who? Who is

>> Ellen?

Ellen?

I mean, uh, Ellen?

>> Yes, you remember. I told you about her.

She's my secretary.

>> Yes, you told me. Well, you said her

eyes went this way and that way and and

you said that

>> I was joking. Of course, her eyes are

beautiful.

She has the sweetest smile I've ever

seen. She's a wonderful secretary, but

she doesn't belong in an office. She

belongs in a home, a beautiful little

home.

You see, Chris, I'm going to ask her to

marry

Dick. Dick,

come here a moment. I want to talk to

you.

Dick,

>> I I'm sorry to interrupt, but I've got

the most exciting news.

>> Really?

>> I I know you're angry, but it's only

because you don't understand.

>> Well, I'd be pretty thickheaded if I

didn't.

>> I don't know why I even bother about

you.

>> And why do you? Because I'm in love with

you, you big dope. That's why.

>> What's the matter Morrison turn you

down?

>> I don't care about Morrison. I never

cared about him. Look, I can't explain

here. Pick me up for dinner tonight and

I'll tell you all about it.

>> Is that all?

>> No, that's not all.

I'll expect you at 8:00. And don't you

be late.

>> It may come as quite a shock to you, Mr.

blame, but I too shall expect you at

8:00 right here.

>> Sure, Blanch. Sure.

>> Yes, that's right, operator. Miss Ellen

Hallet, Chicago, Buckingham 11059.

Well, we'll keep trying, operator. It's

very important.

>> This is very important.

Miss Ellen Howard. Yeah, that's right.

I'll keep trying until you reach her.

And when the call comes through,

transfer her to the lobby. I'll be

there.

>> Thank you.

>> Good evening.

>> Is Miss Duncan in, please?

>> I'll see. Miss Duncan, please.

Thank you. I'm sorry Helena's busy.

>> What's her room number?

>> Uh,

>> that's all right. I'm a friend of hers.

>> 305.

>> Thank you.

Thank you,

>> Fred. Wasn't that Miss Ellen Howlet who

just went up in the elevator?

>> I don't know her name, Mr. Morrison.

Said she was a friend of Miss Duncan.

Oh,

>> she still doesn't answer, Operator.

Well, that's strange because she really

should be home by Come in. Well, keep

trying, please, operator. I'd appreciate

it.

Ellen,

hold the I mean, cancel the call

operator. Hi. I've never been so glad to

see anybody in my life. You just can't

imagine what's happened to me.

>> Nothing would surprise me.

>> Well, Ellen, wait a minute. Let me tell

you what happened.

>> Let me tell you instead.

I've come up here to take you back with

me. Oh, you have, have you?

>> Yes, I have. And also, I'm going to tell

Mr. Morrison all about what we've been

doing. You had some idiotic ideas in

your lifetime, but this one takes the

birthday cake. Thank goodness one of us

came to our senses. Maybe you better

hear what happened today. I don't want

to hear what happened today or yesterday

or any other time. I don't care. Morris

is in love with you. I suppose you don't

care about that either, huh?

>> How I ever let you talk me into this in

the first place, I'll never know. You

and your idiot.

>> What did you say? I said Morrison's in

love with you.

>> Did Mr. Morrison say he was in love with

you?

>> Yes, of course he did. And then stop

calling him mister.

>> Well, what do you know?

You sure he meant me?

>> Yes, you.

>> Well, how did he say it? Was he serious?

When did he say it?

>> Well, I tell you, this is what happened.

Everything worked out fine. And

>> who is it?

>> Douglas.

>> Douglas, wait a minute. Don't go out

there. You hear we're dead. But I've got

to tell him.

>> No, don't be silly. Now you get in here

and stay here. I'll get rid of him

somehow. I don't make a sound.

>> Hello, dog.

>> Mind if I come in?

>> What? Well, I guess not.

>> Are you alone?

>> Yes, of course I'm alone.

>> You're sure?

>> Yes, I'm sure. Who did you expect to

find here?

>> Oh, no one in particular.

>> I'm I'm a little surprised to see you,

Douglas. I I thought you didn't want to

see me anymore.

>> Man can change his mind, Caddyy. Chris?

>> Yes, of course. Only

>> only what?

>> You said you were in love with Ellen.

With Ellen?

>> Ellen? Ha?

>> What do you mean, Ellen? Ha.

>> Oh, Ellen's all right, but she's really

not my type.

>> What? Personally, I prefer the

aggressive type. The girl who goes out

and gets what she wants. The girl who

lets nothing stand in her way.

>> Ellen isn't like that. Ellen's a mouse.

>> A mouse? You said you were in love with

Ellen. You said you were positive you

were in love with her.

>> Oh, a man in love says crazy things.

Chris, it was you I really meant.

>> Now, just a minute.

>> Surely you haven't forgotten these last

few days how much they've meant to both

of us.

>> Douglas. Douglas, you don't know what

you're saying.

>> Oh, yes, I do. For the first time, I

know what I'm saying.

Oh, Chris. Oh,

>> come in. Come in,

>> Dick.

Dick. Dick. I know how this works.

>> Miss Duncan, I don't know what kind of a

game you're playing. But whatever it is,

play it with him, not me. And I'd

appreciate it if you'd go back to Kansas

City or Chicago or someplace and take

him with you.

>> Take him.

>> Something wrong, Miss Duncan?

Douglas Morrison, you get out of here.

>> I'll be delighted. Miss Howlet, you're

fired.

>> Ellen, they can't do this to us. We're

not licked yet. I'll think of some way

to fix those.

>> Sit down.

>> What?

>> I'll handle this myself.

>> May I assist you, madam?

>> You certainly can. Where will I find Mr.

Morrison?

>> In the bar.

>> Thank you.

So, I'm a mouse. Am I a timid secretary?

Eh, do this, Miss Howard. Do that, Miss

Howard. Fall in your face, Miss Howlet.

Well, I've got news for you, Mr.

Morrison. You don't have to fire me. I

quit.

>> Is that all you have to say?

>> No. Drop dead.

>> Men are such dopes.

>> Yeah, dopes.

>> Imagine being married to a band leader

>> or on a railroad.

>> We'd never have any home life.

Ellen,

>> I have an idea.

>> Oh, no.

This one's all right. When the show

closes, let's reinlist in the army.

>> Wonderful idea.

>> I still don't understand. Why didn't

Chris tell me what she was trying to do?

Wouldn't that have been easier?

>> Women are like that. We always have to

have a plot. There's no such thing as

doing something the easy way.

>> But I thought she was different.

>> I thought that one was, too.

>> Now, they went to a lot of unnecessary

trouble to get you.

>> But they did.

>> Maybe we've got this thing figured out

wrong. Maybe they weren't conniving

after all.

And what were they doing?

That's a good question.

>> Oh, well, we're better off without him

anyway, I guess. So, we'll just forget

him.

Heat. Heat.

Wow.

Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Heat

up

here.

Heat.

Heat.

Well, tomorrow's the day. No more

civilian life. No more swimming.

No more typing. No more nothing.

>> Helen.

Julie. The lights on. No.

Choo choo choo choo choo. Idaho glasses.

Watch it. Sorry.

Yeah. Watch it.

Glasses. Watch it. Sorry.

Watch it. Sorry.

Butter plates. Watch it.

Biscuits. Watch it. Sorry.

Ready? All right.

>> Dinner is served.

>> Dinner will be served when I am ready.

>> Get out of here.

>> I get the feeling we're not wanted.

>> How do you like that for gratitude?

>> Out.

>> She's been swimming around in a cool

tank all day and we've been slaving over

a hot stove, working our fingers to the

bone.

>> For what?

>> I said get out of here.

>> Very well. That's the way you feel about

it. I can always go home to mother. And

don't forget to put the laundry out on

Tuesdays.

>> But it's for you. You can take your

biscuits and get right out, too.

>> All right.

>> Just a minute. I don't want him to go. I

want him to stay. You can wreck your own

life if you want to, but leave mine

alone.

You don't want to go, do you, Ellen?

>> I lose the worst secretary I ever had. I

should say not. Oh, Douglas, that's the

nicest thing you've ever said to me, Mr.

Morrison.

>> Just tell me one thing, Ellen.

>> Yes.

>> Are you sure you sent me the right

recipe for those biscuits?

>> Who cares?

>> Dick, come back. Dick,

>> what took you so long?

>> Dick, let me explain. I

>> explain. Yeah.

>> You see, in the first place?

>> Explain.

>> I didn't go to Sun Valley for myself. I

went for Ellen.

>> You see, she was in love with Morris and

she always has been. As a matter of

fact, he was in love with her, but he

just didn't know it. And I thought maybe

if I could just get them in romantic

surroundings up there in Sun Valley, you

know, it' be so wonderful and they fall

in love and

>> fall in love. Yes.

>> You're not paying attention. Oh, yes.

Heat. Heat.

Oh, let's go.

I
