1
00:01:19,708 --> 00:01:23,265
"From Fifth Avenue to Main Street
the hemlines rise and fall."

2
00:01:23,793 --> 00:01:25,882
"The bustles blossom and disappear."

3
00:01:26,293 --> 00:01:29,310
"The hips go broad and narrow
with the changing fashions."

4
00:01:30,052 --> 00:01:33,770
"But the windows in the stores don't
tell the story of the dress business."

5
00:01:34,498 --> 00:01:36,622
"That story is in the New York
Garment Center."

6
00:01:36,962 --> 00:01:39,099
"Half a mile square,
and two blocks high."

7
00:01:39,474 --> 00:01:41,728
"The billion-dollar dress
capital of America."

8
00:01:41,986 --> 00:01:45,612
"Built on a bolt of cloth and a
foolish question: how do I look?"

9
00:01:47,915 --> 00:01:52,292
"The lives and fortunes of hundreds of
thousands of people hang on the question."

10
00:01:53,324 --> 00:01:55,120
"And this is the story of a few of them."

11
00:01:56,348 --> 00:02:00,096
"There was a man named Sam Cooper
and a fellow named Teddy Sherman."

12
00:02:00,624 --> 00:02:04,416
"And .. oh yes .. there was a girl."

13
00:02:06,404 --> 00:02:10,174
If you wait another year, it will be two
years, then ten years. You'll never do it.

14
00:02:10,423 --> 00:02:13,431
I tell you Harriet, she still says no.
─ And I tell you Sam, she must say yes.

15
00:02:13,461 --> 00:02:16,261
I can't make her say yes, only no.
─ She said yes when you married her.

16
00:02:16,430 --> 00:02:18,928
20 years ago. She lost the habit.
─ I'll talk to her myself.

17
00:02:19,163 --> 00:02:21,501
It won't do any good.
─ Sam!

18
00:02:22,469 --> 00:02:25,149
Make her come into town today.
I'll convince her. We'll meet for lunch.

19
00:02:25,179 --> 00:02:28,590
She lives way out on Long Island.
─ It's America. She don't need a passport.

20
00:02:29,060 --> 00:02:31,323
Sam, this means our whole future.

21
00:02:32,740 --> 00:02:33,895
Alright.

22
00:02:35,539 --> 00:02:38,075
Even if she comes and says yes,
the two of us alone are no good.

23
00:02:38,656 --> 00:02:40,055
Are you going to talk to Teddy?

24
00:02:41,224 --> 00:02:43,787
I'm not so sure he's right for us.
─ Believe me, he's the best.

25
00:02:44,285 --> 00:02:46,651
At least talk to him ..
What's to be afraid?

26
00:02:48,595 --> 00:02:52,034
I'll think about it. Leave it to me.
─ Haven't I left everything to you?

27
00:02:56,391 --> 00:03:00,692
That number 807 is going like uranium.
─ What I have is worth more than uranium.

28
00:03:03,218 --> 00:03:04,936
Oh, they want you out there, Sam.

29
00:03:05,265 --> 00:03:07,629
And you too Harriet .. and 807.

30
00:03:08,794 --> 00:03:12,841
Oh I'm so pooped .. it's like living in
a malted-milk machine out there.

31
00:03:13,931 --> 00:03:14,931
Yeah?

32
00:03:15,198 --> 00:03:17,472
The smörgåsbord has arrived mesdames.

33
00:03:17,815 --> 00:03:19,416
Well, submerge and enter ..

34
00:03:19,956 --> 00:03:22,538
I don't wish to be blinded
by your radiant beauty.

35
00:03:23,129 --> 00:03:24,932
Who's indecent?
─ I am.

36
00:03:27,726 --> 00:03:31,361
Okay, I'm not equipped with radar,
so brief me. Where do I go?

37
00:03:31,633 --> 00:03:33,933
About face .. and scram!
─ Hey, wait a minute.

38
00:03:34,741 --> 00:03:37,201
Is Miss Boyd present?
─ Miss Boyd is present.

39
00:03:37,455 --> 00:03:38,976
I have a communication.

40
00:03:39,391 --> 00:03:43,401
Teddy Sherman, ace salesman, back from
his triumphant march through Georgia.

41
00:03:43,654 --> 00:03:46,595
He sends you his love.
─ Tell him I refuse delivery.

42
00:03:47,419 --> 00:03:49,522
What's he doing?
─ Boasting. What else?

43
00:03:49,870 --> 00:03:51,766
He sold a million dollars'
worth of dresses.

44
00:03:52,189 --> 00:03:55,212
The owners of this sweatshop are
on their knees, kissing his shoes.

45
00:03:55,889 --> 00:03:58,762
But why bother with him, when
I've got two passes to the Roxy?

46
00:03:59,203 --> 00:04:02,496
Wait until you cut your second teeth.
─ That's a date Miss Boyd.

47
00:04:02,893 --> 00:04:06,635
In the meantime, Mr Pulvermacher and
Bettini request your presence at once.

48
00:04:07,241 --> 00:04:09,450
The buyers are waiting in
the main torture-chamber.

49
00:04:09,872 --> 00:04:14,547
Oh Harriet .. look out for number
one, a material buyer.

50
00:04:23,497 --> 00:04:28,074
Tell me one thing Miss Boyd: if I had
money, could you love me for my money?

51
00:04:34,918 --> 00:04:37,066
Number 807 $10.95.

52
00:04:47,247 --> 00:04:48,552
Number 807 $10.95.

53
00:04:48,796 --> 00:04:51,799
The leading dress of our line .. the
hottest number we've had in years.

54
00:04:52,024 --> 00:04:53,996
I'll show you the orders if
you don't believe me.

55
00:04:54,116 --> 00:04:57,930
We've got it in a range of colors, with
the new "Rivera B", exclusive to us.

56
00:04:58,050 --> 00:05:00,072
What did you say this material was?

57
00:05:00,335 --> 00:05:02,767
A Swanson cotton and you can
also get it in a Benberg rayon.

58
00:05:02,983 --> 00:05:04,623
Miss .. come a little closer here please.

59
00:05:06,747 --> 00:05:08,550
Oh yes .. very good.

60
00:05:09,695 --> 00:05:13,132
Yes, that's a nice number .. say Miss,
I think I've seen you here before.

61
00:05:13,411 --> 00:05:16,393
Yes! You're the young lady who
says she goes to night-school.

62
00:05:16,738 --> 00:05:20,137
Or did you say you had a sick mother?
─ I've said both Mr Savage.

63
00:05:24,804 --> 00:05:27,743
Harriet, where's Fran? What's happened?
─ She's changing Mr Pulvermacher.

64
00:05:28,033 --> 00:05:29,630
Ida! Tell Fran to hurry!

65
00:05:29,931 --> 00:05:32,410
And you Harriet, Teddy
wants you to show 807.

66
00:05:33,114 --> 00:05:35,878
And Ida, if you see Four-Eyes,
tell him it's time for my milk.

67
00:05:37,001 --> 00:05:39,612
Hello Miss Pearson, when
did you get to town?

68
00:05:44,687 --> 00:05:46,156
Is she coming?
─ She's coming.

69
00:05:46,526 --> 00:05:47,969
What are you afraid of?
─ It shows?

70
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:49,556
Like a plunging neckline.

71
00:05:49,763 --> 00:05:51,426
Hey, how about the 807?

72
00:05:54,951 --> 00:05:57,133
Well .. Miss Boyd ..

73
00:05:57,891 --> 00:06:00,445
Well, come on honey, hurry it
up. I could be getting rich.

74
00:06:01,453 --> 00:06:03,881
Are you going to talk to him?
─ I haven't decided yet.

75
00:06:04,178 --> 00:06:07,854
Decide, Harriet. If she says yes, we must
leave her a chance to change her mind.

76
00:06:08,461 --> 00:06:12,154
This 807 is the biggest thing we've got
and I want you to go all out on it.

77
00:06:12,446 --> 00:06:14,373
I still liked that last one.
─ The last one?

78
00:06:14,984 --> 00:06:17,462
I wouldn't sell it to you.
It's positively a dog.

79
00:06:17,969 --> 00:06:20,564
Honey, you do understand about tonight?
─ Oh yes.

80
00:06:20,833 --> 00:06:23,527
I believe you were saying something
about standing me up?

81
00:06:23,969 --> 00:06:28,071
Absolutely not. You and I are doing
the town tonight, if I can break away.

82
00:06:28,356 --> 00:06:30,084
Number 807. $10.95.

83
00:06:30,300 --> 00:06:35,370
This is Pul-Bet-Kel's 807 and nothing
in the $10.95 field can compare with it.

84
00:06:35,633 --> 00:06:37,692
Not bad. Any chance for an exclusive?

85
00:06:37,914 --> 00:06:40,714
Spit on your pencil and write some big
numbers. I'll see what I can do.

86
00:06:40,759 --> 00:06:44,036
Miss Boyd .. I'd like Miss Griggs to
see this one to best advantage.

87
00:06:44,438 --> 00:06:46,063
What you doing for lunch?
─ Fasting.

88
00:06:46,301 --> 00:06:47,077
How about tonight?

89
00:06:47,311 --> 00:06:49,671
Reading the small print from
Women's Wear to my grandmother.

90
00:06:49,907 --> 00:06:52,066
Very funny .. Well ..

91
00:06:52,461 --> 00:06:54,672
I see you're having trouble
getting an exclusive too.

92
00:06:54,913 --> 00:06:57,537
Honey, are you kidding? I'm
an old friend of the family.

93
00:06:58,184 --> 00:07:01,640
I can use .. fifty units.
─ Fifty?

94
00:07:02,504 --> 00:07:04,758
I'll do something for you
I wouldn't do for anyone else.

95
00:07:04,965 --> 00:07:07,725
Harriet, on your way out tell Ida
to bring me the re-order blank.

96
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,288
I thought you were on a buying spree.

97
00:07:11,081 --> 00:07:14,735
You're taking me to dinner, aren't you?
Let's see what else you can talk me into.

98
00:07:15,142 --> 00:07:15,874
Tonight.

99
00:07:16,106 --> 00:07:18,222
Sugar, you know I want to
take you, it's only that ..

100
00:07:18,841 --> 00:07:22,586
Tell you what. I'll get on the phone and
see if I can't break that other date.

101
00:07:25,244 --> 00:07:28,099
Miss Boyd, I am going to give you
another crack at the giant jackpot.

102
00:07:28,672 --> 00:07:30,232
The invitation to dinner is still open.

103
00:07:31,510 --> 00:07:34,710
Now, is this a nice way to greet a fellow
who's been on the road for four months?

104
00:07:34,937 --> 00:07:39,256
Has it been that long? I never knew the time
to pass so quickly .. or so pleasantly.

105
00:07:39,641 --> 00:07:41,818
Honey, I like the way you're
fighting it, but somehow ..

106
00:07:41,848 --> 00:07:42,848
Look out!

107
00:07:43,087 --> 00:07:44,646
Milk for Mr Pulvermacher's ulcer.

108
00:07:45,164 --> 00:07:47,340
Somehow, you've got a false
impression of my character.

109
00:07:47,460 --> 00:07:49,924
Teddy darling! Oh, it's
so good to see you.

110
00:07:50,131 --> 00:07:52,331
Honey, control yourself, you'll
wrinkle the merchandise.

111
00:07:52,458 --> 00:07:54,627
What time tonight? .. What time tonight?

112
00:07:54,889 --> 00:07:57,966
Well I don't think Fran would like it.
And then there is Miss Greaves ..

113
00:07:58,260 --> 00:07:59,330
Oh now, honey ..

114
00:08:00,272 --> 00:08:03,434
You know, thee way to keep happy
Miss Marks, is to keep busy. My expenses.

115
00:08:05,018 --> 00:08:08,608
What is this? Lunches and dinners,
or the budget for the Marshall Plan?

116
00:08:08,911 --> 00:08:10,652
I would appreciate silence and a check.

117
00:08:11,023 --> 00:08:13,324
I got something I want to say to you.
─ What?

118
00:08:14,197 --> 00:08:15,962
I am madly in love with you.

119
00:08:22,873 --> 00:08:25,626
What's the most expensive
restaurant they'll let you into?

120
00:08:26,827 --> 00:08:28,950
When?
─ Tonight.

121
00:08:32,536 --> 00:08:34,489
Boy!
─ At your service.

122
00:08:34,609 --> 00:08:36,714
I want my check cashed
before the banks close.

123
00:08:36,834 --> 00:08:40,432
To think, for six months she wouldn't
say hello to me in front of witnesses.

124
00:08:41,631 --> 00:08:42,729
Right.

125
00:08:44,682 --> 00:08:47,524
You know, you've got to purge your
mind of old-fashioned ideas.

126
00:08:48,025 --> 00:08:51,368
They get these traveling-salesman
jokes .. see the really Teddy Sherman.

127
00:08:51,659 --> 00:08:52,659
Who is that?

128
00:08:52,908 --> 00:08:55,650
A man of integrity, quiet
charm and eternal faith.

129
00:08:56,585 --> 00:08:59,783
Familiar with the arts and the sciences.
A philanthropist .. and a sportsman.

130
00:09:00,022 --> 00:09:01,459
In short, everything you are not.

131
00:09:02,398 --> 00:09:03,838
Yeah, but everything I'd like to be.

132
00:09:04,463 --> 00:09:06,867
All I need is a girl like you to
hold my hand and guide me.

133
00:09:07,342 --> 00:09:09,934
Is this a proposal of marriage?
─ Who knows?

134
00:09:10,394 --> 00:09:13,605
In the meantime, just hold my hand.
─ Let's go.

135
00:09:18,288 --> 00:09:21,494
208 Greenwich Street please.
─ Drive slow.

136
00:09:23,877 --> 00:09:26,778
Very slow.
─ What's the matter? Afraid of accidents?

137
00:09:28,882 --> 00:09:32,187
Harriet .. you are about to embark
on a wonderful adventure.

138
00:09:33,521 --> 00:09:34,836
Honey ..

139
00:09:35,737 --> 00:09:38,439
Honey, do something. Either squeeze
back or honk like a horn.

140
00:09:39,585 --> 00:09:42,909
Now really, there's no sense in us acting
like we're in two different cabs.

141
00:09:44,958 --> 00:09:47,558
Harriet, I've been studying you all
evening and I have a question.

142
00:09:48,526 --> 00:09:50,299
When do you come out
of the deep-freeze?

143
00:09:51,136 --> 00:09:53,268
I've been studying you
all evening too Teddy.

144
00:09:53,887 --> 00:09:54,887
Baby ..

145
00:09:54,975 --> 00:09:56,910
How much money do
you have in the bank?

146
00:09:58,151 --> 00:09:59,634
I'm sorry, Harriet.

147
00:10:00,152 --> 00:10:01,794
You hold these and
I'll get the rest.

148
00:10:01,914 --> 00:10:04,490
No point about the pearls.
The real ones are in the safe.

149
00:10:04,922 --> 00:10:10,081
Let's stick to the subject. You've
got $3,329 in commissions coming.

150
00:10:10,682 --> 00:10:12,042
How much have you got in the bank?

151
00:10:12,128 --> 00:10:14,851
What kind of perfume do you use?
─ Expensive. Why?

152
00:10:15,378 --> 00:10:17,685
Funny .. I smell a rat.
─ Very funny.

153
00:10:19,018 --> 00:10:20,051
Look Miss Boyd.

154
00:10:20,680 --> 00:10:22,886
I was pushing a cart through
the Garment Center ..

155
00:10:23,006 --> 00:10:25,619
While you were punching for your
gold pen in the diaper service.

156
00:10:26,182 --> 00:10:29,022
I know things about this business you'll
never grow old enough to learn.

157
00:10:29,072 --> 00:10:30,210
But you fooled me.

158
00:10:30,656 --> 00:10:33,116
It took me some time to realize
the interest you've got.

159
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,634
I must have been blind. It sticks out
all over you like a bad case of hives.

160
00:10:38,845 --> 00:10:41,834
Go on Mr Sherman. You've
got the blueprint .. Read it.

161
00:10:42,375 --> 00:10:46,407
Sure .. you're going to start a new
dress firm and get rich .. you think.

162
00:10:47,138 --> 00:10:49,145
You've been yakking to
Cooper, a top factory man.

163
00:10:49,709 --> 00:10:53,664
I'm to be the salesman and somewhere
else there's another sucker .. a designer.

164
00:10:54,547 --> 00:10:57,426
But what may I ask, just
exactly what have you got?

165
00:10:57,784 --> 00:11:00,985
Would you like to see?
─ I'm free the rest of the night.

166
00:11:02,272 --> 00:11:04,385
Alright then. I'll show you.

167
00:11:50,518 --> 00:11:52,509
That's our 807.
─ That's right.

168
00:11:53,565 --> 00:11:55,748
So you talked Bettini into
coming in with you too, huh?

169
00:11:56,505 --> 00:11:59,164
Poor Pul-Bet-Kel .. knifed from within.

170
00:11:59,762 --> 00:12:03,903
No Bettini the designer, no Cooper the
insider, no Teddy Sherman the salesman.

171
00:12:05,309 --> 00:12:07,675
You are quite a little pusher.
─ The design is mine.

172
00:12:08,483 --> 00:12:09,067
What?

173
00:12:09,349 --> 00:12:11,638
These sketches are mine
Mr Sherman, mine.

174
00:12:12,037 --> 00:12:15,323
And it took me 3 months to convince
Bettini to use them under his own name.

175
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,600
He did, and you know what happened.

176
00:12:28,550 --> 00:12:30,325
You?
─ Me.

177
00:12:31,812 --> 00:12:34,332
You didn't happen to steal these
sketches from Bettini, did you?

178
00:12:34,500 --> 00:12:38,532
I don't steal from paupers.
Ask Cooper, he knows.

179
00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:42,907
Convinced?
─ I suppose I am.

180
00:12:43,497 --> 00:12:45,258
Suppose you are a designer,
and a good one.

181
00:12:45,563 --> 00:12:47,904
If you go out into that jungle,
they'll cut you to pieces.

182
00:12:48,024 --> 00:12:50,785
You think you know this business?
─ Yes, I think I know this business.

183
00:12:51,151 --> 00:12:53,660
I know plenty, and I've
learned it the hard way.

184
00:12:54,963 --> 00:12:56,982
I worked days and studied nights.

185
00:12:57,909 --> 00:13:03,003
I modeled those 7th Avenue dogs, while
salesmen and buyers pawed all over me.

186
00:13:03,727 --> 00:13:06,892
I've been pinched,
patted .. and kissed.

187
00:13:07,666 --> 00:13:12,068
Fought my way out of cabs, bars and hotel
rooms, but I've learned this business.

188
00:13:13,084 --> 00:13:15,272
It took a strong stomach,
but I've learned it.

189
00:13:16,155 --> 00:13:17,882
I've got the best inside
man there is.

190
00:13:18,002 --> 00:13:21,278
I'm the best designer, and Pul-Bet-Kel
says you're the best salesman.

191
00:13:22,398 --> 00:13:24,329
Tell me Miss, what do you
dream about at nights?

192
00:13:24,564 --> 00:13:26,220
Cadillacs and a duplex
on Park Avenue?

193
00:13:26,442 --> 00:13:29,102
That's just what I dream
about. All the time ..

194
00:13:29,852 --> 00:13:33,318
So with my job, time and money,
you want to gamble on a racket that ..

195
00:13:33,438 --> 00:13:36,172
Beats two, three hundred
established firms a year?

196
00:13:36,989 --> 00:13:39,787
I thought I had brass Miss Boyd.
I am not in your league.

197
00:13:40,156 --> 00:13:43,486
Exactly what I told Cooper.
You're NOT in our league.

198
00:13:44,349 --> 00:13:47,908
"Teddy Sherman" I said? They mint
that type like pennies .. in billions.

199
00:13:48,415 --> 00:13:50,358
The all-American slob.

200
00:13:51,711 --> 00:13:54,640
You've spent ten years in this business
selling other people's stuff.

201
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,518
And there you stand .. Teddy Sherman.

202
00:13:58,091 --> 00:14:03,194
36 suits in his closet, each with a penny
in the pocket. All adding up to 36 cents.

203
00:14:04,355 --> 00:14:06,433
Come around for a job some
day when you're broke.

204
00:14:07,692 --> 00:14:10,570
Wait a minute .. I've got
something for you.

205
00:14:14,799 --> 00:14:18,058
That's for the cab .. the
analysis was for free.

206
00:14:18,845 --> 00:14:21,437
You can forget about the necklace.
You don't owe me a thing.

207
00:14:22,855 --> 00:14:23,973
Goodnight.

208
00:14:25,071 --> 00:14:29,289
Miss Boyd, you have the simple beauty
of an old-fashioned straight razor.

209
00:14:31,402 --> 00:14:33,352
How much have you got?
─ Enough.

210
00:14:33,617 --> 00:14:36,390
How much in cash?
─ Cooper has ten thousand.

211
00:14:36,732 --> 00:14:40,542
I can raise $7,500. How about you?
─ The same .. interested?

212
00:14:40,873 --> 00:14:43,725
Bring the dollar bills and we'll talk.
─ That's a deal.

213
00:14:58,379 --> 00:14:59,478
Goodnight.

214
00:15:02,322 --> 00:15:04,670
History will record this sacred moment.

215
00:15:05,406 --> 00:15:09,149
Here lies Teddy Sherman. She offered
him an apple. He lost his head.

216
00:15:16,251 --> 00:15:19,187
You'll never lay your hands on
that insurance money, Harriet.

217
00:15:19,850 --> 00:15:21,268
Your father left it to me.

218
00:15:22,210 --> 00:15:25,511
It's for Marge, when she gets married.
─ And what about me?

219
00:15:25,849 --> 00:15:29,522
I'm a daughter too.
─ But you don't need it like Marge does.

220
00:15:29,943 --> 00:15:32,948
You got the looks and the talent,
and the ability to make money.

221
00:15:33,068 --> 00:15:34,728
It takes money to make money.

222
00:15:35,174 --> 00:15:38,873
That kind, you'll either marry or steal.
─ Ma, that money is no good.

223
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,390
It will buy Marge some cheap furniture, a
washing-machine and a middle-aged spread.

224
00:15:43,652 --> 00:15:46,130
If she ever gets married.
And what about you?

225
00:15:47,163 --> 00:15:49,426
When your father died,
I gave up hoping for myself.

226
00:15:50,853 --> 00:15:52,365
Once I hoped for you.

227
00:15:53,182 --> 00:15:56,549
But you're a throwback to an Irish
bandit in the hills of Killarney.

228
00:15:57,990 --> 00:15:59,892
I want to see Marge married to Ray.

229
00:16:01,010 --> 00:16:03,511
I want them to start without worry.
─ And what will you do?

230
00:16:03,929 --> 00:16:05,643
Live a week with her,
and a week with me?

231
00:16:06,047 --> 00:16:09,145
A woman without money, without
independence, without pride.

232
00:16:09,476 --> 00:16:12,116
Taking crumbs off your son-in-law's
table .. is that what you want?

233
00:16:12,239 --> 00:16:14,883
Ma, with that 5,000 dollars I
can make you independent.

234
00:16:15,154 --> 00:16:19,688
We'll have plenty left for Marge and she
won't have to marry a schmuck like Ray.

235
00:16:19,977 --> 00:16:23,623
Who'll spend his life almost winning
cases in the court of small-claims.

236
00:16:24,236 --> 00:16:26,595
With money, she'll be able
to marry any man she wants.

237
00:16:27,404 --> 00:16:31,712
A nice outlook on life ..
─ It's the outlook men taught me.

238
00:16:32,001 --> 00:16:33,873
And some man will teach you it's wrong.

239
00:16:34,850 --> 00:16:36,117
The answer is "no".

240
00:16:52,099 --> 00:16:53,099
It's getting late Ray.

241
00:16:53,338 --> 00:16:56,120
So what? Nobody gets ahead if
he's a clock watcher .. come here.

242
00:17:00,578 --> 00:17:01,704
Ray ..

243
00:17:02,230 --> 00:17:04,108
Say, how about asking me in?
For some coffee?

244
00:17:04,390 --> 00:17:06,430
We just had coffee.
─ But we don't have to drink it.

245
00:17:19,139 --> 00:17:20,139
What's that?

246
00:17:24,003 --> 00:17:27,796
Baby, how would you and Ray like to
go to Bermuda on your honeymoon?

247
00:17:29,083 --> 00:17:31,064
Wake me up when you get in. Harriet.

248
00:17:31,993 --> 00:17:33,214
Is she crazy?

249
00:17:34,734 --> 00:17:36,490
Harriet!
─ Baby ..

250
00:17:37,049 --> 00:17:39,499
Wait until you hear.
─ What did you do? Rob a bank?

251
00:17:39,772 --> 00:17:42,252
What's this all about?
─ The most wonderful thing in the world.

252
00:17:42,298 --> 00:17:46,052
They came to me. To me! Cooper and
Sherman. They're going into business.

253
00:17:46,624 --> 00:17:49,714
And they want me to be their designer.
─ You mean the top designer?

254
00:17:49,834 --> 00:17:53,704
The ONLY designer. And in my own
business. I'm going to be a partner.

255
00:17:53,921 --> 00:17:56,903
Congratulations, Harriet, it's wonderful.
─ And I told them all about you, Ray.

256
00:17:56,933 --> 00:17:59,022
They promise to let you to
draw up all the contracts.

257
00:17:59,142 --> 00:18:01,542
They'll get one the Supreme Court
couldn't break with an axe.

258
00:18:01,667 --> 00:18:05,096
Oh Harriet, it's really come true. And
it's what you've always dreamed about.

259
00:18:05,349 --> 00:18:07,584
A lot of dreams are going
to start coming true.

260
00:18:09,217 --> 00:18:12,663
Things Mama has always
dreamed about .. and you.

261
00:18:14,156 --> 00:18:16,325
That little place that you
and Ray want in Queens.

262
00:18:16,973 --> 00:18:18,597
One good season and I'll buy it for you.

263
00:18:18,862 --> 00:18:22,663
I couldn't let you do a thing like that.
─ Don't be proud with your sister-in-law.

264
00:18:23,536 --> 00:18:25,367
It's a loan. You can pay me back.

265
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,963
At six percent if it will make
you feel any better.

266
00:18:28,267 --> 00:18:32,018
Oh, I feel so wonderful, I want to get
all dressed up in a beautiful new gown.

267
00:18:33,099 --> 00:18:35,060
Why don't you two kids
get married right away?

268
00:18:35,549 --> 00:18:37,587
I'm not joking about that
trip to Bermuda.

269
00:18:38,806 --> 00:18:42,104
Let's all have a drink on it. Go
ahead Marge, make some coffee.

270
00:18:42,224 --> 00:18:43,268
Alright.

271
00:18:46,054 --> 00:18:47,414
You know, you're pretty wonderful.

272
00:18:48,206 --> 00:18:51,228
Don't waste that on me.
This is the wrong girl.

273
00:19:06,513 --> 00:19:09,480
Operator, I think my phone is out
of order. Will you ring me please?

274
00:19:10,021 --> 00:19:12,213
Schylar 7,4,3,2,2.

275
00:19:26,091 --> 00:19:27,246
Hello?

276
00:19:31,244 --> 00:19:32,649
Oh hello Sam.

277
00:19:35,034 --> 00:19:36,245
They did?

278
00:19:37,015 --> 00:19:38,273
But I thought ..

279
00:19:40,089 --> 00:19:42,868
Oh but Sam, I can't. I just haven't got it.

280
00:19:44,483 --> 00:19:45,531
Two weeks?

281
00:19:46,051 --> 00:19:48,793
I couldn't raise that kind
of money in 200 years ..

282
00:19:51,762 --> 00:19:53,762
Sure, I know it isn't your fault.

283
00:19:54,636 --> 00:19:56,279
You can't help it.

284
00:19:57,377 --> 00:19:58,579
Goodnight Sam.

285
00:20:00,063 --> 00:20:01,537
What's the matter, honey?

286
00:20:02,307 --> 00:20:04,964
I just want to lay down and die.
─ What happened?

287
00:20:07,362 --> 00:20:10,639
It's all off .. the whole thing.

288
00:20:12,469 --> 00:20:14,366
The bank says we need more cash.

289
00:20:15,703 --> 00:20:18,698
They'll have to get a designer who
will put up his share of the money.

290
00:20:21,283 --> 00:20:22,801
I'm sorry kid ..

291
00:20:27,386 --> 00:20:31,823
Oh what a rotten break .. I'd give
anything in the world help her.

292
00:20:33,384 --> 00:20:35,430
Me .. with less than
400 bucks in the bank.

293
00:20:47,277 --> 00:20:48,979
I wanted you to understand ..

294
00:20:49,671 --> 00:20:53,321
I just wanted you all to know
how bad I feel about this.

295
00:20:53,708 --> 00:20:55,339
You only think you feel bad now.

296
00:20:55,727 --> 00:20:59,203
30 years I have been in this street, and
every day I learn the same lesson.

297
00:20:59,483 --> 00:21:01,428
Don't go into business for yourself.

298
00:21:01,738 --> 00:21:04,239
And you Teddy .. you
sleep well at night?

299
00:21:05,356 --> 00:21:06,356
Me?
─ Hmm.

300
00:21:06,821 --> 00:21:09,923
Like a dummy in a sweetshop window.
─ Tomorrow you won't .. right Herman?

301
00:21:10,196 --> 00:21:12,353
In over 13 years, I haven't
had a good night's sleep.

302
00:21:12,611 --> 00:21:16,261
Only when I worked for somebody else.
That's the only time I slept .. tell him.

303
00:21:16,519 --> 00:21:19,529
Maybe for Teddy it's alright. A
young man needs a bankruptcy.

304
00:21:19,870 --> 00:21:23,414
It helps him to mature. But
you Sam, you're a worrier.

305
00:21:23,907 --> 00:21:25,324
You'll lose weight.
─ You'll get sick.

306
00:21:25,354 --> 00:21:28,804
In front of your eyes Sam, from
now on: spots! With zeros.

307
00:21:29,622 --> 00:21:31,622
Haven't we treated you well?
─ You want more money?

308
00:21:31,688 --> 00:21:33,859
We'll give you a raise.
─ Want to take your wife to Jones beach?

309
00:21:33,889 --> 00:21:35,429
I'll lend you my Buick.
─ Take my Cadillac.

310
00:21:35,459 --> 00:21:37,181
Take my wife!
─ Don't leave!

311
00:21:37,301 --> 00:21:38,850
But he has left!

312
00:21:40,108 --> 00:21:43,968
Stop the cold war gentlemen. Mr Cooper
is in business with Teddy and me.

313
00:21:44,550 --> 00:21:49,041
We've hired a lawyer, papers are signed.
All we're trying to do is say goodbye.

314
00:21:49,530 --> 00:21:50,530
Serpent!

315
00:21:50,852 --> 00:21:54,552
He gave you a chance. Now, you're trying
to steal the best salesman in town.

316
00:21:54,852 --> 00:21:56,984
Listen Cooper, you've got
a house half paid for.

317
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,432
A daughter in college, a son in school,
a wife with a washing machine.

318
00:22:00,696 --> 00:22:03,239
And you want to risk all that
just call yourself a "Boss"?

319
00:22:03,765 --> 00:22:04,765
Just a gamble.

320
00:22:04,957 --> 00:22:08,157
And end up in months with your hat in your
hands and creditors howling for blood.

321
00:22:08,295 --> 00:22:11,051
They'll take your house.
Your children will go to work.

322
00:22:11,333 --> 00:22:16,469
And you will be back in the factory with
nothing! That's the garment business.

323
00:22:16,910 --> 00:22:19,497
For every successful
business, a dozen fail.

324
00:22:20,582 --> 00:22:25,189
I've thought about it, and I've given my
word to my partners, Teddy and Harriet.

325
00:22:26,216 --> 00:22:30,808
We intend to work hard and take a
risk in order to be .. independent.

326
00:22:31,846 --> 00:22:33,508
I think that's a good thing.

327
00:22:34,410 --> 00:22:37,415
I admit, sometimes I'm afraid
I am doing a foolish thing.

328
00:22:37,978 --> 00:22:42,652
But .. where would you all be if you
didn't take a risk every once in a while?

329
00:22:43,724 --> 00:22:46,963
A man can't live his whole life
worrying if what he's doing is safe.

330
00:22:48,304 --> 00:22:50,217
To live is to take a chance.

331
00:22:50,710 --> 00:22:54,853
I took a chance when I came to this
country. I'm taking a chance now.

332
00:22:56,098 --> 00:22:59,795
But I have two friends .. who I trust.

333
00:23:02,612 --> 00:23:04,220
Well, we tried.

334
00:23:04,618 --> 00:23:08,833
We'll give you all a month's wages and
good wishes. You got the bug. Good luck.

335
00:23:09,221 --> 00:23:13,657
Good luck .. well done ..

336
00:23:23,353 --> 00:23:26,310
We got a million things to do. See you.
─ So long .. bye.

337
00:23:26,615 --> 00:23:28,375
Well, goodbye.
─ Where you going?

338
00:23:28,670 --> 00:23:31,380
My resignation is on your desk Mr Kelley.
─ You too?

339
00:23:31,626 --> 00:23:37,698
I've been offered a job at a new dress
firm that will soon dominate the field.

340
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,619
What do you expect? A counter offer?

341
00:23:40,030 --> 00:23:41,030
No, gentlemen.

342
00:23:41,403 --> 00:23:46,634
But on behalf of the new firm, I say
"move over, youth is on its way".

343
00:23:47,531 --> 00:23:49,131
Harriet .. wait for me!

344
00:23:50,535 --> 00:23:53,340
I've been taking this elevator
down for fifteen years.

345
00:23:53,985 --> 00:23:57,002
Today, for the first time, I've got
a sinking feeling in my stomach.

346
00:24:02,773 --> 00:24:05,533
That makes me feel better.
I see we're all a little scared.

347
00:24:05,978 --> 00:24:07,316
Main floor.

348
00:24:39,678 --> 00:24:41,650
Four-Eyes, where have you been?

349
00:24:41,866 --> 00:24:43,380
Who are they from? Who sent them?

350
00:24:43,643 --> 00:24:46,066
These are from "us" to "us".
Mr Sherman sent them.

351
00:24:46,385 --> 00:24:48,792
Flowers we don't need to make
dresses. Zippers we need.

352
00:24:49,062 --> 00:24:52,467
So hang them up and run quick to ..
─ Sam, glad to find you. What about 304?

353
00:24:52,736 --> 00:24:55,259
When can we promise delivery?
─ Two weeks .. ten days.

354
00:24:55,379 --> 00:24:57,747
That's better.
─ Teddy .. why the flowers?

355
00:24:58,874 --> 00:25:01,259
Are we so rich we can afford to
wish ourselves good luck?

356
00:25:01,503 --> 00:25:05,107
Sam, don't worry. Griggs is writing an
order that will carry us for months.

357
00:25:05,341 --> 00:25:09,867
She'd better write two orders. So we can
also pay for the carpets and fancy drapes.

358
00:25:11,313 --> 00:25:13,579
Why did we did need such an
expensive showroom, Teddy?

359
00:25:13,848 --> 00:25:16,173
Because it sells dresses
Sam, that's why. Come on ..

360
00:25:16,464 --> 00:25:18,595
Come on in and smile.
It builds confidence.

361
00:25:20,821 --> 00:25:23,638
Sherboyco Dresses .. yes sir?

362
00:25:24,210 --> 00:25:26,135
Thank you sir .. I'll
tell him you called.

363
00:25:30,269 --> 00:25:32,091
Hello.
─ Oh, yes sir?

364
00:25:32,410 --> 00:25:33,687
I see you don't know who I am.

365
00:25:33,950 --> 00:25:37,505
No sir, this is my first day. I'm
Ellie Cooper, Mr Cooper's daughter.

366
00:25:37,922 --> 00:25:38,922
Oh ..

367
00:25:39,732 --> 00:25:43,435
I'm Mr Arnold Fisher, head of the
Shipping Department. Take a letter.

368
00:25:44,667 --> 00:25:46,967
To all members of the Shipping
Department .. important.

369
00:25:47,633 --> 00:25:49,747
Welcome to "Sherboyco
Dresses Incorporated".

370
00:25:50,469 --> 00:25:55,578
In order to conserve string, all packages
to be tied with a figure-eight knot.

371
00:25:56,011 --> 00:26:01,149
The ends not more than two inches
long. Signed, Arnold Fisher, Manager.

372
00:26:01,632 --> 00:26:05,834
Four-Eyes? Four-Eyes, you still
here? I need you inside Joe.

373
00:26:06,259 --> 00:26:09,481
Here, you finish sweeping, then run
over to 6th Avenue for those zippers.

374
00:26:09,788 --> 00:26:11,452
Yes, Mr Cooper.

375
00:26:26,106 --> 00:26:29,526
Good morning. Mr Sherman in?
─ Yes, sir. Who shall I say is calling?

376
00:26:29,646 --> 00:26:32,686
Oh never mind, honey. You don't have to
be formal with me, I'm an old friend.

377
00:26:32,751 --> 00:26:35,180
Yes, sir. He's in the showroom.
─ Thank you.

378
00:26:40,755 --> 00:26:45,194
Well hello .. where's my old
friend General Sherman?

379
00:26:47,393 --> 00:26:48,894
Hello Johnny, how are you?

380
00:26:49,876 --> 00:26:51,722
Where's Sherman?
─ He was here a moment ago.

381
00:26:51,842 --> 00:26:53,704
Hey Teddy, where are you hiding?

382
00:26:55,102 --> 00:26:57,122
Sounds as if your friend
Savage is in town.

383
00:26:57,242 --> 00:26:59,762
I only have to hear the sound of
his voice and I get a hangover.

384
00:27:00,001 --> 00:27:03,001
He's the biggest account in the business
Teddy. You'd better be nice to him.

385
00:27:03,296 --> 00:27:05,232
By the way, how about lunch?
─ Absolutely.

386
00:27:05,458 --> 00:27:07,028
Dinner?
─ Afraid that's out honey.

387
00:27:07,148 --> 00:27:09,143
My nights belong to Savage.
I'm the chaperone.

388
00:27:09,263 --> 00:27:10,623
Who chaperones the chaperone?

389
00:27:10,991 --> 00:27:13,407
Savage old man, I've been looking for you.
─ Well, there you are.

390
00:27:13,437 --> 00:27:15,183
And Hermione honey, how are you?

391
00:27:16,715 --> 00:27:18,435
See you later, Teddy.
─ See you at lunch.

392
00:27:18,555 --> 00:27:21,204
Well Teddy my boy, congratulations.
─ Thanks. What do you think of it?

393
00:27:21,234 --> 00:27:24,550
Not bad at all, but these fixtures
have a familiar look.

394
00:27:25,347 --> 00:27:28,534
Bulmer's Frocks, before
they went bankrupt.

395
00:27:29,641 --> 00:27:32,029
Are you good and hungry
for a real great ...?

396
00:27:32,338 --> 00:27:36,419
Teddy, you know me. With this half I buy
dresses. With this half I'm real hungry.

397
00:27:36,691 --> 00:27:39,491
How about something out of that
little black book of yours for tonight?

398
00:27:39,724 --> 00:27:43,066
You're on! Terry, come here will you.
Put these in my office please honey.

399
00:27:47,159 --> 00:27:49,253
How nice they fit into the dresses.

400
00:27:50,849 --> 00:27:52,004
Say, that's nice too.

401
00:27:52,239 --> 00:27:55,000
That's my partner. Harriet,
come here will you honey.

402
00:27:55,739 --> 00:27:57,541
Mr Savage, Miss Boyd. Our designer.

403
00:27:58,016 --> 00:28:02,940
Well, delighted I'm sure. My how
he picks them, even for partners.

404
00:28:03,457 --> 00:28:07,910
And how he picks them, even customers.
─ Say, haven't I met you before?

405
00:28:08,276 --> 00:28:10,963
Yes you have.
─ Why of course.

406
00:28:11,326 --> 00:28:14,467
You've come up in the world.
Tell me, how is your sick mother?

407
00:28:15,495 --> 00:28:16,675
She's much better now.

408
00:28:16,932 --> 00:28:19,880
Good, good. And night-school?
─ I graduated.

409
00:28:20,581 --> 00:28:23,802
Look Teddy, I want her to sell me.
Now why shouldn't I enjoy it?

410
00:28:24,418 --> 00:28:25,779
Sure, that's no problem.

411
00:28:25,899 --> 00:28:28,108
I'm sure Mr Savage will
like everything we have.

412
00:28:28,228 --> 00:28:31,498
Say, if I like it with him, I'm
going to love it with you.

413
00:28:31,724 --> 00:28:35,029
And Teddy, don't forget. Gilmore's
tonight at eight as usual.

414
00:28:35,066 --> 00:28:36,066
As usual. Right.

415
00:28:36,371 --> 00:28:38,315
Sit right here Mr Savage.
I'll be with you.

416
00:28:38,747 --> 00:28:41,503
Oh Teddy .. lunch?

417
00:28:42,008 --> 00:28:44,156
Honey, I'm stuck with Hermione.

418
00:28:44,404 --> 00:28:46,329
Honey .. murder him.

419
00:28:52,694 --> 00:28:55,420
Alright already .. so it was a gag.
─ Stinker!

420
00:28:55,540 --> 00:28:58,028
What'd I do wrong? I'm
a typical American boy.

421
00:28:58,299 --> 00:28:59,704
You humiliated me.

422
00:29:00,117 --> 00:29:02,654
I was merely trying to impress
the boss's daughter.

423
00:29:03,351 --> 00:29:06,915
Look .. someday we'll get
married .. I'll be head of the firm.

424
00:29:07,269 --> 00:29:11,400
We'll educate our children in Switzerland.
In the magazines you'll see my picture.

425
00:29:11,803 --> 00:29:16,292
Arnold Fisher, man of distinction. In my
hand a glass of whiskey and seltzer.

426
00:29:16,619 --> 00:29:19,003
You're blocking my way Mr Four-Eyes.

427
00:29:19,806 --> 00:29:23,724
I'm blocking her way .. she's
blocking my whole future.

428
00:29:27,699 --> 00:29:29,503
Hiya Joe .. you got it?

429
00:29:30,041 --> 00:29:32,920
Naturally I got it. You asked
me to get it, so I got it.

430
00:29:38,505 --> 00:29:39,563
How much?

431
00:29:40,526 --> 00:29:43,434
For you? Wholesale, with 15%
off for personal friendship.

432
00:29:43,660 --> 00:29:45,839
How much?
─ Five hundred.

433
00:29:46,658 --> 00:29:49,566
Three-fifty ..
─ Three-fifty? .. I'll take it.

434
00:29:52,078 --> 00:29:54,400
Could I interest you in a
diamond wedding-ring?

435
00:29:54,654 --> 00:29:57,203
A guy just got it back from
his girl. It's a bargain.

436
00:29:57,891 --> 00:30:00,304
Joe, you are premature.
─ This is a bargain.

437
00:30:01,597 --> 00:30:04,264
Don't tempt me, she's tempting
me. That's plenty.

438
00:30:09,428 --> 00:30:11,841
Good evening Mr Sherman. How are you?
─ Fine, fine.

439
00:30:14,395 --> 00:30:15,395
Good evening Gilmore.

440
00:30:15,433 --> 00:30:18,008
Good evening Mr Sherman.
Mr Savage is in the dining room.

441
00:30:18,663 --> 00:30:19,799
Mr Sherman.
─ Yes?

442
00:30:20,404 --> 00:30:22,098
He's in there with another girl.
─ What?

443
00:30:22,218 --> 00:30:23,546
He's got a girl with him.

444
00:30:33,311 --> 00:30:36,340
Take care of them Mac.
─ Okay, what will it be, girls?

445
00:30:38,252 --> 00:30:40,914
Martinis.
─ And make it a double. I'm starved.

446
00:30:45,207 --> 00:30:48,870
Oh, I told him off good. You
should have seen his face.

447
00:30:49,683 --> 00:30:51,585
Hello.
─ Oh hiya Teddy.

448
00:30:51,926 --> 00:30:54,387
Say, you know Miss Boyd don't you?
─ Yeah, we've met.

449
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:56,260
Any trouble closing the order?

450
00:30:56,380 --> 00:31:00,251
Oh no, she's the greatest designer
and saleswoman in the business.

451
00:31:00,473 --> 00:31:03,036
But I wouldn't sign until she had
dinner with me. Would I, honey?

452
00:31:03,842 --> 00:31:05,525
She mix up the two sides of your brain?

453
00:31:05,724 --> 00:31:10,295
Yeah, she sure did. Feels fine too.
─ Let's not talk business. I'm hungry.

454
00:31:11,014 --> 00:31:13,929
You hungry Teddy?
─ No, I always eat before I come here.

455
00:31:14,147 --> 00:31:17,260
What about our date?
─ I got a date. Say, waiter.

456
00:31:18,084 --> 00:31:20,989
Please, bring us two more.
─ Yes sir .. and Mr Sherman?

457
00:31:21,109 --> 00:31:23,980
Well, he's with another party.
─ Hadn't you better run along Teddy?

458
00:31:24,283 --> 00:31:27,468
Your friends are waiting.
─ You run along. They wait for him too.

459
00:31:28,348 --> 00:31:30,397
Do you think I'd pass this
up for any of those ...?

460
00:31:30,517 --> 00:31:33,160
Never mind the details.
─ Well, I'll see you tomorrow, Teddy.

461
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,775
See you tomorrow. There's lots of time
tomorrow. I ordered 1,500 pieces.

462
00:31:37,234 --> 00:31:41,916
She's a great salesman, your partner.
And she's real cute too, aren't you?

463
00:31:42,889 --> 00:31:45,068
Yes, sir. She's going to
take real good care of me.

464
00:31:45,188 --> 00:31:48,188
Shut up, and why don't you go home?
You don't have to do this to get orders.

465
00:31:48,318 --> 00:31:51,087
Do what, Teddy darling?
─ Spoon-feed this drunk, that's what.

466
00:31:51,406 --> 00:31:53,460
Sherman, you can't talk like
this in front of a lady.

467
00:31:53,490 --> 00:31:56,800
Don't you take your buyers out, wine
them, dine them and amuse them?

468
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,094
That's different.
─ How?

469
00:31:58,214 --> 00:32:01,580
Because I'm a man and you're a lady.
─ How?

470
00:32:02,229 --> 00:32:05,619
I'll write you a letter. Let's go.
─ Look, this lady is in my company.

471
00:32:06,018 --> 00:32:08,917
This place is full of my
friends. Now, let's go!

472
00:32:09,037 --> 00:32:11,393
Just a minute .. why you ..

473
00:32:16,757 --> 00:32:20,264
Mr Sherman, Mr Sherman!
Mr Sherman, your hat ..

474
00:32:20,693 --> 00:32:21,780
Taxi!

475
00:32:24,124 --> 00:32:27,801
Forget it, all we lost was an order.
─ You lost more. You lost me.

476
00:32:28,072 --> 00:32:31,134
This just shows you how much I like you.
─ Who asked you to show me?

477
00:32:33,365 --> 00:32:35,908
Taxi!
─ I couldn't help it. You know how I feel.

478
00:32:36,439 --> 00:32:38,703
Sure. I'm part of the Teddy
Sherman circus.

479
00:32:39,398 --> 00:32:42,159
You think I got into this business
with you and Cooper just for money?

480
00:32:42,406 --> 00:32:44,690
You've been on my mind since
the first time we went out.

481
00:32:44,810 --> 00:32:49,948
I liked it. But I don't like to see you
selling yourself to a buyer like a prize.

482
00:32:50,068 --> 00:32:53,166
You mean like yourself and those lady
buyers from the southern circuit?

483
00:32:53,438 --> 00:32:56,255
What kind of talk is that? You're
the kind of girl I could marry.

484
00:33:05,147 --> 00:33:07,132
Didn't you hear me? I'm proposing to you.

485
00:33:07,645 --> 00:33:09,765
What do you expect me to do?
Throw my arms around you?

486
00:33:10,497 --> 00:33:13,965
When you marry a girl, it will be to rope
her off so you go on playing the field.

487
00:33:14,364 --> 00:33:16,183
Can't you understand, I love you?

488
00:33:16,469 --> 00:33:18,977
You love me? You mean
you want to own me!

489
00:33:19,751 --> 00:33:22,914
I worked and schemed to get a business
started so I could be free of men like you.

490
00:33:22,944 --> 00:33:26,004
So I could belong to myself.
You loved me so much ..

491
00:33:26,392 --> 00:33:31,371
For the sake of your ego, you'll take
something I've dreamt about all my life ..

492
00:33:31,606 --> 00:33:34,531
And kick it under a bar-room table.
That's how much you love me!

493
00:33:34,651 --> 00:33:37,479
Alright, I'll carry you back in there
and dump you in Savage's lap.

494
00:33:37,696 --> 00:33:40,176
But that finishes it, I want out.
Get yourself another partner.

495
00:33:40,361 --> 00:33:44,034
On no .. I've got a partner. You.
The best in the business.

496
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:45,960
And you're going to help me get rich.

497
00:33:46,439 --> 00:33:49,041
The contract is signed, sealed and
delivered .. unbreakable.

498
00:33:49,581 --> 00:33:52,890
And you won't get out. Never. So
make up your mind to like it.

499
00:33:53,805 --> 00:33:54,805
Taxi!

500
00:34:21,861 --> 00:34:24,180
What are we going to do now, honey?
─ I'm hungry.

501
00:34:24,965 --> 00:34:27,324
Sorry .. all I got is pearls.

502
00:34:35,872 --> 00:34:37,263
I wish they were oysters.

503
00:35:06,188 --> 00:35:09,465
You got to be a hula dancer to get these
girls around without getting them wet.

504
00:35:09,768 --> 00:35:12,267
Suppose they do get wet. What
does that mean in human history?

505
00:35:12,387 --> 00:35:14,320
In this human's history? Plenty.

506
00:35:15,786 --> 00:35:18,303
Are you favoring the industry with
your presence, my good man?

507
00:35:19,552 --> 00:35:22,595
Can they take it off my income tax?
─ Naturally. It's a business deduction.

508
00:35:22,945 --> 00:35:23,986
Entertainment.

509
00:35:24,289 --> 00:35:26,787
I presume therefore, you're going?
─ It's a must.

510
00:35:27,184 --> 00:35:30,411
A person must be seen there, to
establish his position in the industry.

511
00:35:30,531 --> 00:35:32,743
With your position in the
industry? Stay in Brooklyn.

512
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,335
I shall report your impertinence
to the janitorial department.

513
00:35:38,612 --> 00:35:40,072
Ladies and gentlemen.

514
00:35:41,405 --> 00:35:44,170
When the committee first asked me
to introduce our guest of honor.

515
00:35:44,577 --> 00:35:46,554
I was naturally very proud and happy.

516
00:35:47,832 --> 00:35:50,946
But since he is truly a man
who needs no introduction.

517
00:35:51,741 --> 00:35:55,072
I said that my remarks should
be brief and to the point.

518
00:35:55,778 --> 00:35:59,041
Well, that didn't fool the committee, they
made me show them my speech anyway.

519
00:36:00,807 --> 00:36:04,640
And so, briefly .. but with
deep pleasure and pride ..

520
00:36:05,189 --> 00:36:07,667
I give you that great Merchant Prince.

521
00:36:08,217 --> 00:36:12,732
That man .. whose stores are national
centers of taste and elegance.

522
00:36:13,489 --> 00:36:17,906
That great friend of The Garment
Center .. Mr J. F. Noble.

523
00:36:31,731 --> 00:36:34,582
With all your influence, why are
we sitting in the bleachers?

524
00:36:35,186 --> 00:36:37,102
Are we supposed to be
hiding from someone?

525
00:36:39,433 --> 00:36:44,188
As a way of showing my gratitude to you
for your invitation to me tonight,

526
00:36:45,146 --> 00:36:49,926
I hope to prove myself the equal of your
toastmaster in brevity, if not in wit.

527
00:36:51,310 --> 00:36:57,832
Sam, tell Miss Boyd we're here because
this area is for those that make dresses.

528
00:36:58,724 --> 00:37:01,407
Half way up is for those
who whip up frocks.

529
00:37:01,727 --> 00:37:05,832
And right at the platform itself, are
the distinguished designers of gowns.

530
00:37:06,210 --> 00:37:08,541
Tell him, I want to design gowns.

531
00:37:09,073 --> 00:37:11,853
Tell her to take it up with Noble.
─ I don't blame her.

532
00:37:12,279 --> 00:37:15,745
With that gown, she should be sitting
up on the platform next to Noble.

533
00:37:16,349 --> 00:37:20,016
That's probably what she's been thinking.
─ That's exactly what I've been thinking.

534
00:37:22,322 --> 00:37:24,794
It comes true not only for
the privileged handful ..

535
00:37:25,256 --> 00:37:27,988
For those who can raise the
capital to start a business ..

536
00:37:28,332 --> 00:37:31,230
But for those with no more
than native ability and energy ..

537
00:37:31,750 --> 00:37:35,654
For all those in fact .. that have what
is commonly known as "the stuff".

538
00:37:36,293 --> 00:37:38,552
Plus of course, a little luck ..

539
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,114
I could ask the lady with
Noble to go home.

540
00:37:46,255 --> 00:37:48,254
You could if she'd talk to you.

541
00:37:50,691 --> 00:37:53,921
Oh she'd talk to me. As a matter
of fact she'd dance with me.

542
00:37:54,915 --> 00:37:56,829
What do you plan to do?
Go up and pinch her?

543
00:37:57,271 --> 00:38:00,631
That isn't done in some circles you
know. You have to be introduced.

544
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,274
Don't go away Miss Boyd .. excuse me.

545
00:38:10,453 --> 00:38:14,681
And as I did myself from London,
across the broad Atlantic in steerage.

546
00:38:15,620 --> 00:38:20,047
A chance to move from the side of the
railway tracks on which they were born.

547
00:38:20,472 --> 00:38:24,458
To the side on which life
looks, and is, better.

548
00:38:25,594 --> 00:38:29,723
What is it with Teddy? Where's he gone?
─ Don't worry, he'll be right back.

549
00:38:30,539 --> 00:38:33,709
Because you are all a part
of America's fulfillment.

550
00:38:34,366 --> 00:38:39,600
A part of the promise, from the New World
to the sons and daughters of the Old.

551
00:38:42,824 --> 00:38:47,308
Yes .. The Garment Center is more
than the home of an industry ..

552
00:38:47,621 --> 00:38:52,680
In which success is achieved with no
more than talents inherited at birth.

553
00:38:53,489 --> 00:38:56,593
The Garment Center is
also a state of mind.

554
00:38:57,151 --> 00:39:00,785
It is the Mecca to which
the pilgrim's route lies.

555
00:39:01,807 --> 00:39:05,016
Not across the desert by camel caravan.

556
00:39:05,514 --> 00:39:08,839
But across Manhattan,
by way of the Subway.

557
00:39:10,542 --> 00:39:13,736
Anybody can raise the
fare .. all of you have.

558
00:39:14,315 --> 00:39:17,036
And the Mecca is the fulfillment
of great ambitions.

559
00:39:17,757 --> 00:39:22,431
The success of great talents .. the
reward of intelligence and energy.

560
00:39:23,548 --> 00:39:24,741
And so I say:

561
00:39:25,225 --> 00:39:28,761
"Long live 7th Avenue. I'm proud of it".

562
00:39:29,421 --> 00:39:33,529
"I'm proud of all of us ..
And especially of you."

563
00:39:33,649 --> 00:39:35,789
I thank you.

564
00:39:57,626 --> 00:40:00,467
It's been a long time Teddy ..
I thought you were dead.

565
00:40:01,792 --> 00:40:03,940
I don't like running around
with married women.

566
00:40:04,318 --> 00:40:06,609
I'm not married to him.
─ How come?

567
00:40:08,255 --> 00:40:13,549
Mr Noble advances women who fall for him
through their careers, not marriage.

568
00:40:14,667 --> 00:40:17,305
I'm running the lingerie department
of the Chicago store.

569
00:40:18,074 --> 00:40:20,747
You happy?
─ Reasonably .. you?

570
00:40:21,351 --> 00:40:25,539
Reasonably .. I'm in business for
myself, that is with two partners.

571
00:40:26,201 --> 00:40:28,815
One of them is an angel,
the other one is a louse.

572
00:40:29,975 --> 00:40:32,495
Come on, let's dance over there.
I want to show you off to them.

573
00:40:33,027 --> 00:40:36,339
Hello!
─ Hello Mr Cooper, Hello Mrs Cooper.

574
00:40:36,871 --> 00:40:38,563
Where did you get the money?
─ We crashed.

575
00:40:39,056 --> 00:40:41,034
All it cost was $22.50 for the tux.

576
00:40:41,375 --> 00:40:43,893
Teddy, I mean Mr Sherman,
got it for me wholesale.

577
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,782
Didn't you hear Noble: "All I need
is talent, energy and brains".

578
00:40:48,089 --> 00:40:50,432
Commodities with which I
am lavishly endowed.

579
00:40:50,747 --> 00:40:51,918
Positively loaded!

580
00:40:52,190 --> 00:40:55,526
Come Ellie, let's get on the dance floor.
We've got to get our money's worth.

581
00:40:55,646 --> 00:40:58,188
See you later, Mama.
─ Yes, dear.

582
00:41:05,339 --> 00:41:08,072
Sam .. where is he?

583
00:41:10,681 --> 00:41:12,985
Over there ..

584
00:41:14,838 --> 00:41:16,802
Would you look at that ..

585
00:41:26,351 --> 00:41:29,306
Oh that. That doesn't bother me.
I'm not jealous anymore.

586
00:41:29,921 --> 00:41:32,015
You don't understand.
That's one of my partners.

587
00:41:32,453 --> 00:41:36,262
Oh .. the angel.
─ No .. not the angel.

588
00:41:37,325 --> 00:41:39,992
I never suspected a buyer's ball
could be so entertaining.

589
00:41:40,112 --> 00:41:43,493
I must apologize for putting
them off all these years.

590
00:41:44,238 --> 00:41:48,058
It's been a lovely evening .. but now
I must finish my nightcap and go.

591
00:41:49,349 --> 00:41:51,786
Nightcaps are meant to be
lingered over, not to be finished.

592
00:41:52,141 --> 00:41:54,720
Well, I'm sorry but it's late,
and I'm a working girl.

593
00:41:55,228 --> 00:41:58,343
This nightcap will have to be finished.

594
00:42:01,345 --> 00:42:03,900
I've been meaning to ask you
where you got that lovely dress.

595
00:42:04,148 --> 00:42:05,698
I designed it myself.

596
00:42:06,349 --> 00:42:11,362
I'm one pilgrim in the $10.95 line, who
wants to achieve the Mecca of gowns.

597
00:42:12,149 --> 00:42:14,673
As in Noble's.
─ I did use that phrase, didn't I ..

598
00:42:14,793 --> 00:42:16,802
I can only say I hoped no-one
would remember it.

599
00:42:17,098 --> 00:42:19,646
I assumed you wanted everyone to
remember everything you were saying.

600
00:42:19,676 --> 00:42:23,673
The only people who remember what I say
are those who want something from me.

601
00:42:23,899 --> 00:42:27,010
What's wrong with that? What you
have is what people should want.

602
00:42:27,282 --> 00:42:29,494
I'm not objecting.
─ As a matter of fact ..

603
00:42:30,287 --> 00:42:34,182
They are words that describe
thoughts I've had .. things I've felt.

604
00:42:35,635 --> 00:42:38,722
When you said "people",
I translated "Harriet Boyd".

605
00:42:38,994 --> 00:42:40,804
When you said "talent" I said "mine" ..

606
00:42:41,218 --> 00:42:44,507
And when you said "luck" I
said it had to be "my luck".

607
00:42:46,107 --> 00:42:49,644
Well .. goodnight.
─ You sure I can't drive you home?

608
00:42:49,764 --> 00:42:50,910
No thanks.

609
00:42:51,525 --> 00:42:54,249
You really pride yourself on your
independence, don't you.

610
00:42:55,050 --> 00:42:59,333
I noticed that you left your partner
without an excuse, or even a "goodnight".

611
00:43:00,007 --> 00:43:01,108
Why shouldn't I?

612
00:43:01,391 --> 00:43:03,757
Usually, when men have
beautiful women for partners ..

613
00:43:03,877 --> 00:43:05,673
Pleasure and business gets mixed up.

614
00:43:06,277 --> 00:43:08,513
In our partnership our only
pleasure is business.

615
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:13,127
Then you need a change .. either
your point of view, or your partner ..

616
00:43:14,913 --> 00:43:16,427
Goodnight.

617
00:43:44,336 --> 00:43:45,336
Taxi!

618
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:03,339
Hold that right there for me, Terry.
─ Sure.

619
00:44:05,864 --> 00:44:08,244
Gee Miss Boyd, I don't know
how you think of these things.

620
00:44:08,817 --> 00:44:10,920
I guess maybe it's a gift, huh?

621
00:44:12,838 --> 00:44:14,286
Oh .. fancy ..

622
00:44:14,406 --> 00:44:16,728
Just a little something I'm
whipping up for myself, Sam.

623
00:44:16,848 --> 00:44:18,375
It's beautiful, Harriet.

624
00:44:19,249 --> 00:44:22,637
But come down from the clouds for a
minute. I must tell you about Con-Gees.

625
00:44:23,004 --> 00:44:25,404
There's a manufacturer closing
up and he'll sell for nothing.

626
00:44:25,514 --> 00:44:28,476
If you got a Spring design for
the material, it's a smart deal.

627
00:44:28,770 --> 00:44:30,388
Buy it!
─ You got a design?

628
00:44:30,615 --> 00:44:32,508
I'll have one.
─ Good girl.

629
00:44:32,795 --> 00:44:35,129
There .. now that's what
I was looking for.

630
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,200
Can you get out of that without
pulling all the pins loose?

631
00:44:38,262 --> 00:44:39,262
Sure.

632
00:44:39,694 --> 00:44:41,681
What are you going to show Renee?
─ 712.

633
00:44:41,801 --> 00:44:43,801
Show it in the blue. It suits
your coloring best.

634
00:44:43,921 --> 00:44:45,098
Yes, Miss Boyd.

635
00:44:45,457 --> 00:44:47,634
Gee Mr Sherman!
─ Treat me as a member of the family.

636
00:44:47,870 --> 00:44:50,190
I just spoke to Sam. You're
making a mistake with Con-Gees.

637
00:44:50,474 --> 00:44:51,070
Why?

638
00:44:51,275 --> 00:44:54,316
Old-fashioned material and it won't sell.
─ Make it sell.

639
00:44:54,818 --> 00:44:56,645
I'm against it.
─ Settle it with Cooper.

640
00:44:57,449 --> 00:45:00,210
Will you leave those sketches alone
for minute. Harriet, listen to me.

641
00:45:00,411 --> 00:45:03,153
You're involved in this. You're supposed
to be designing the Spring Line.

642
00:45:03,183 --> 00:45:06,143
Unless, of course, it is all too dull,
since you got your claws into Noble.

643
00:45:06,340 --> 00:45:08,460
Not blood, ink!
─ Very funny.

644
00:45:09,861 --> 00:45:11,213
There's plenty you can do.

645
00:45:11,475 --> 00:45:14,321
You can drop a hint around the
house. I want to be a salesman.

646
00:45:15,548 --> 00:45:18,018
Look Ellie .. you've got to think
of me like I was a relative.

647
00:45:18,339 --> 00:45:20,626
On whose side? My mother's or father's?

648
00:45:21,112 --> 00:45:22,996
Alright .. make jokes.
─ Excuse me.

649
00:45:23,273 --> 00:45:26,185
You buying or selling?
─ Are you one of the partners here?

650
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,112
Mr Noble! .. My heartfelt apologies.

651
00:45:30,491 --> 00:45:32,866
What can I do for you Mr Noble sir?
─ Is Miss Boyd in?

652
00:45:33,213 --> 00:45:36,927
Why yes sir. Have a seat sir. I'll call
her and inform her of your presence.

653
00:45:38,287 --> 00:45:39,636
Yeah?

654
00:45:41,873 --> 00:45:43,104
Mr Noble.

655
00:45:43,541 --> 00:45:48,309
Well, well .. the mountain has come
to Mohamed. Come in Mr Noble.

656
00:45:54,992 --> 00:45:58,612
Could you go for him?
─ What kind of a question is that?

657
00:45:59,452 --> 00:46:00,452
Hello.

658
00:46:01,274 --> 00:46:04,440
This is my partner Teddy Sherman.
Teddy .. Mr Noble.

659
00:46:05,717 --> 00:46:09,746
If this is formal, I'm Mr Sherman,
you're Miss Boyd, and this is Mr Noble.

660
00:46:10,139 --> 00:46:12,988
But if we're not, I'm Teddy Sherman,
you're Harriet Boyd and you are ..

661
00:46:13,369 --> 00:46:14,608
Mr Noble.

662
00:46:21,524 --> 00:46:23,603
If anyone wants me, I'll be at my club.

663
00:46:28,692 --> 00:46:31,500
I waited for you to call, and
when you didn't, I did.

664
00:46:31,763 --> 00:46:33,490
This is your Spring Line?
─ Yes.

665
00:46:34,091 --> 00:46:35,406
It's very nice.

666
00:46:36,476 --> 00:46:38,485
Did I bore you?
─ Oh no ..

667
00:46:39,171 --> 00:46:41,254
Then why didn't you
press your advantage?

668
00:46:41,866 --> 00:46:44,748
I didn't know I had one.
─ Well, here I am.

669
00:46:47,274 --> 00:46:49,631
What's this?
─ Just doodling.

670
00:46:54,494 --> 00:46:56,934
Would you like to have lunch with
me and go to a fashion show?

671
00:46:57,311 --> 00:46:58,081
I would.

672
00:46:58,297 --> 00:47:01,211
There is some new things in from Paris
I'd like to have your comments on.

673
00:47:04,091 --> 00:47:07,687
You should doodle more often.
─ Well, if I'm encouraged, I might.

674
00:47:09,123 --> 00:47:10,964
Don't I look encouraging?

675
00:47:20,699 --> 00:47:21,347
Like it?

676
00:47:21,619 --> 00:47:23,929
Yes .. I like it very much.

677
00:47:26,543 --> 00:47:28,017
Oh .. here you are.

678
00:47:31,257 --> 00:47:32,355
After you.

679
00:47:34,759 --> 00:47:35,952
Thank you.

680
00:47:38,224 --> 00:47:41,370
You like this one?
─ It's lovely .. but impractical.

681
00:47:41,727 --> 00:47:46,115
The only place a woman could wear a gown
like this would be .. in a perfume Ad'.

682
00:47:47,559 --> 00:47:50,189
Lareen.
─ Good afternoon Mr Noble.

683
00:47:50,740 --> 00:47:52,454
What is the reaction on this one?

684
00:47:52,818 --> 00:47:56,304
Oh the men like it, but the women
know that you can't sit down in it.

685
00:47:57,947 --> 00:47:59,461
What about this?

686
00:48:01,645 --> 00:48:04,215
I would lower the neckline a
bit to make it more formal.

687
00:48:07,091 --> 00:48:08,253
And this?

688
00:48:11,281 --> 00:48:15,831
I thought it had a certain flair.
─ But it wouldn't have on a hanger.

689
00:48:16,254 --> 00:48:18,393
The model brought her "flair" with her.

690
00:48:19,872 --> 00:48:21,938
Do you believe in hunches?
─ No.

691
00:48:22,337 --> 00:48:23,617
Well I do.

692
00:48:24,403 --> 00:48:28,452
I have a hunch that you and I should
have a serious talk .. and tonight.

693
00:48:28,828 --> 00:48:30,647
Oh, I believe in that.

694
00:48:32,724 --> 00:48:35,893
Well, are we ready for the unveiling?
─ In a minute.

695
00:48:36,796 --> 00:48:40,071
I've switched a few of your ideas
around. I hope you don't mind.

696
00:48:40,632 --> 00:48:42,606
I expect them to be switched around.

697
00:48:43,029 --> 00:48:47,113
I also expect them to be improved.
─ About that, we'll know in a minute.

698
00:48:48,472 --> 00:48:51,087
There .. that does it ..

699
00:48:54,212 --> 00:48:58,274
You are a fabulous girl .. you're
not in the least bit nervous, are you.

700
00:48:58,638 --> 00:49:00,668
Nervous? Why, should I be?

701
00:49:01,067 --> 00:49:05,234
Your work is about to be judged by,
if you will forgive me, J.F. Noble.

702
00:49:06,173 --> 00:49:09,260
Now, don't you care if like it or not?
─ I care very much.

703
00:49:09,823 --> 00:49:14,627
Then you are sure that I am going to?
─ No .. I'm just sure it's good.

704
00:49:19,085 --> 00:49:20,176
Well?

705
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:32,688
It has everything I expected it
to have, but it is incomplete.

706
00:49:34,383 --> 00:49:36,139
Here is how I'd like to see it finished.

707
00:49:40,678 --> 00:49:42,025
"Harriet of Nobles".

708
00:49:45,073 --> 00:49:47,711
"Harriet of Nobles".
─ You like the way it sounds?

709
00:49:48,124 --> 00:49:52,566
Oh yes .. yes, I like it very much.
─ Do you mind if I speak frankly?

710
00:49:53,918 --> 00:49:55,984
You are going to say
something disagreeable?

711
00:49:57,890 --> 00:49:59,120
Naturally ..

712
00:49:59,974 --> 00:50:03,411
I'm going to say that if you think I'm
interested in you personally, as a woman ..

713
00:50:03,833 --> 00:50:04,833
You are wrong.

714
00:50:05,204 --> 00:50:07,026
But I know what you need,
and what you want.

715
00:50:07,420 --> 00:50:10,716
You have ambition and talent ..
And I can help you fulfill them.

716
00:50:11,523 --> 00:50:15,539
With me, you can jump from the $10.95
business to the top of your profession.

717
00:50:16,515 --> 00:50:19,548
In a few years you can become one of
the leading designers in the country.

718
00:50:19,783 --> 00:50:21,933
That's exactly .. exactly what I want.

719
00:50:22,318 --> 00:50:24,891
Then take it .. the offer is open ..

720
00:50:26,346 --> 00:50:30,750
But I have 2 partners, a small business
and an unbreakable contract for 5 years.

721
00:50:31,698 --> 00:50:33,285
You'll find a way to break it.

722
00:50:34,985 --> 00:50:36,205
May I use the design?

723
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:38,497
It's a present.
─ Thank you.

724
00:50:40,398 --> 00:50:43,694
You know, if we're going to work together
someday, you must be frank with me.

725
00:50:45,027 --> 00:50:46,727
Oh, wasn't I?
─ No.

726
00:50:47,150 --> 00:50:49,478
You are interested in me,
as well as my talent.

727
00:50:50,220 --> 00:50:51,582
Well, suppose I am.

728
00:50:52,577 --> 00:50:53,863
Why did you deny it?

729
00:50:54,164 --> 00:50:57,622
Because it might complicate things
for "Harriet of Nobles".

730
00:50:58,567 --> 00:50:59,567
I'm complicated.

731
00:50:59,948 --> 00:51:02,605
And I'm simple. I only know what I want.

732
00:51:03,478 --> 00:51:05,206
I think we both know what we want.

733
00:51:06,491 --> 00:51:08,359
Well the offer is still open Harriet.

734
00:51:09,251 --> 00:51:11,007
But it won't be forever.

735
00:51:15,781 --> 00:51:18,281
"Don't you tell me to be quiet.
I don't care who hears me."

736
00:51:18,786 --> 00:51:22,901
"I'm not going to stand for this kind of
thing. I'm not blind and I'm not a fool."

737
00:51:23,219 --> 00:51:26,019
"I know exactly what you've been up
to and you won't get away with it."

738
00:51:26,176 --> 00:51:27,974
"You hear me! You won't
get away with it."

739
00:51:28,094 --> 00:51:30,272
If you people don't want me
in this company, say so.

740
00:51:30,632 --> 00:51:34,455
Come out and say it and stop conspiring
against me. I slave over those sketches.

741
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,599
What do you think I've got to work
with, making a dress for $10.95?

742
00:51:37,873 --> 00:51:40,031
And when I get something,
this is what you do with it.

743
00:51:40,378 --> 00:51:42,613
This is not the dress I
designed, and you know it.

744
00:51:42,820 --> 00:51:44,420
Please Harriet, if something is wrong ..

745
00:51:44,474 --> 00:51:47,474
Miss Boyd! Mr Sherman says to hold it
down. He can hear you in the showroom.

746
00:51:47,650 --> 00:51:49,192
It's not a dress, it's a nightmare.

747
00:51:49,312 --> 00:51:51,646
What right have you got to make
changes without my permission?

748
00:51:51,676 --> 00:51:54,232
But Harriet, it's just exactly like ..
─ It is not!

749
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,802
This collection of rags you've sewn
together is not the dress I designed.

750
00:51:58,018 --> 00:51:59,370
Here .. look at this.

751
00:51:59,615 --> 00:52:02,413
You're not hanging wallpaper Sam.
This is supposed to be a dress.

752
00:52:02,666 --> 00:52:04,338
Something for a human-being to wear.

753
00:52:04,779 --> 00:52:07,305
And look .. what's this supposed
to be? Some kind of a joke?

754
00:52:07,425 --> 00:52:09,061
And this .. and this!

755
00:52:09,399 --> 00:52:11,615
Gee Miss Boyd! What did you do that for?

756
00:52:12,347 --> 00:52:14,387
Alright everybody, get busy,
this isn't a side-show.

757
00:52:15,925 --> 00:52:17,433
What's going on? What happened to you?

758
00:52:17,463 --> 00:52:20,881
She did it .. I don't have to take this
from anybody. I've a good mind to quit.

759
00:52:21,001 --> 00:52:23,481
Don't quit so fast. You'll get a
formal apology in the morning.

760
00:52:23,533 --> 00:52:26,172
In the meantime, get into 712,
there's a buyer waiting to see it.

761
00:52:29,952 --> 00:52:31,619
Okay .. let's have it.

762
00:52:32,323 --> 00:52:34,003
I suppose changing my
design was your idea.

763
00:52:34,074 --> 00:52:36,220
What? What design?
─ This! This, this ..

764
00:52:36,607 --> 00:52:39,566
If he wants to design the dresses
around here, let him. This isn't mine.

765
00:52:39,773 --> 00:52:42,036
You crazy? Stop yelling at Cooper.
─ Teddy, it's alright.

766
00:52:42,156 --> 00:52:43,172
It's not alright.

767
00:52:43,615 --> 00:52:47,418
What kind of fuss is this anyway?
─ If you 2 don't like it, I'll get out.

768
00:52:48,291 --> 00:52:51,778
I don't like how you sound. I don't
like the tone of your voice.

769
00:52:52,886 --> 00:52:54,782
I want you to behave yourself Harriet.

770
00:52:55,055 --> 00:52:58,930
You should treat people here as if they
were as good as you are. Understand?

771
00:53:00,004 --> 00:53:02,924
Do you understand?
─ It's alright Harriet, it's alright.

772
00:53:03,469 --> 00:53:06,704
If a person doesn't feel good, it's the
sickness that talks, not the person.

773
00:53:07,450 --> 00:53:08,450
It's alright.

774
00:53:08,708 --> 00:53:12,220
Oh Sam, I'm sorry .. I'm all on edge.

775
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,930
The thing is it's exactly
like the sketch. Exactly.

776
00:53:26,747 --> 00:53:30,241
Now, all day she sits in her office.
She doesn't even go out for lunch.

777
00:53:30,589 --> 00:53:32,230
Every two minutes she changes her mind.

778
00:53:32,795 --> 00:53:35,666
I'll have to stay in work tonight.
The designs are all late.

779
00:53:36,558 --> 00:53:39,519
Are they any good?
─ Sure, very good. Look ..

780
00:53:40,402 --> 00:53:44,019
I don't know, it's a mystery. I walk
in and bang, the house falls on me.

781
00:53:45,119 --> 00:53:47,654
I think I'll have to have
a long talk with her.

782
00:53:48,931 --> 00:53:49,931
Yup!

783
00:53:50,293 --> 00:53:55,157
Teddy .. no more yelling .. please.
─ I don't yell when I'm serious.

784
00:53:55,444 --> 00:53:58,462
After all, with a genius, we've got to
expect temperament, not good manners.

785
00:53:58,866 --> 00:54:01,223
She's a high-strung type
Teddy .. oversensitive.

786
00:54:02,031 --> 00:54:03,956
So what are we? Elephants?

787
00:54:09,603 --> 00:54:11,528
Goodnight Miss Boyd.
─ Goodnight.

788
00:54:15,387 --> 00:54:16,617
Let's take a walk together.

789
00:54:17,030 --> 00:54:19,472
No, I'm going home to bed.
I have a terrible headache.

790
00:54:20,100 --> 00:54:23,114
A walk in fresh air will help.
─ Nothing will help.

791
00:54:24,551 --> 00:54:26,006
Don't be too sure.

792
00:55:00,584 --> 00:55:03,570
Sometimes you forget there's such
a thing as fresh air in New York.

793
00:55:04,088 --> 00:55:06,904
Or, other things in the
world besides business.

794
00:55:15,342 --> 00:55:16,826
Go ahead, it's your turn.

795
00:55:17,868 --> 00:55:19,080
Now you breathe.

796
00:55:30,271 --> 00:55:31,761
What's killing you?

797
00:55:33,381 --> 00:55:35,200
Me.
─ How come?

798
00:55:35,764 --> 00:55:41,060
Overworked, over tired, over eager,
over ambitious, over worried.

799
00:55:42,501 --> 00:55:44,637
I'd like to forget I ever
wanted to be a designer.

800
00:55:44,957 --> 00:55:46,947
I'd like to forget I ever
wanted to be rich.

801
00:55:47,278 --> 00:55:47,865
Why?

802
00:55:48,147 --> 00:55:50,952
It's the pressure. Every
season a new gamble.

803
00:55:51,457 --> 00:55:54,555
Will the designs be good? Will
they sell? Will we go broke?

804
00:55:55,060 --> 00:55:58,404
And it's all on me. I can ruin the
whole business in one week.

805
00:55:59,649 --> 00:56:05,259
I don't sleep at night .. I've hardly
slept .. in I don't know how long.

806
00:56:05,541 --> 00:56:08,405
Did you see a doctor?
─ We're practically married.

807
00:56:08,862 --> 00:56:11,104
Well, what does he say?
─ He told me to quit.

808
00:56:11,985 --> 00:56:13,851
I told him I couldn't.

809
00:56:14,943 --> 00:56:17,630
Looks like I'll have to. I'm
no use to anyone this way.

810
00:56:18,299 --> 00:56:19,649
That's right.

811
00:56:20,377 --> 00:56:24,919
I used to think my sister Marge
was a dope .. but she's happy.

812
00:56:27,372 --> 00:56:31,186
I'd like to quit .. but what
about you and Sam?

813
00:56:32,055 --> 00:56:35,318
Never mind about me and Sam.
Let's talk about me and you.

814
00:56:35,835 --> 00:56:37,220
No.
─ Why not?

815
00:56:37,619 --> 00:56:39,967
I .. I don't want to.
─ Harriet ..

816
00:56:40,087 --> 00:56:43,523
Look, you stay here and
breathe. I'm going home.

817
00:56:52,625 --> 00:56:54,559
There is only one suggestion
I can make, Harriet.

818
00:56:55,148 --> 00:56:57,296
What's that? Throwing me
out of the company?

819
00:56:58,153 --> 00:57:02,085
Worse than that.
─ What could be worse than that?

820
00:57:06,666 --> 00:57:08,532
You could marry me.

821
00:57:11,056 --> 00:57:13,200
How could you possibly
want me to marry you?

822
00:57:13,763 --> 00:57:15,050
Sounds crazy doesn't it.

823
00:57:15,422 --> 00:57:17,981
I never stop thinking about it,
and don't think I haven't tried.

824
00:57:19,137 --> 00:57:23,902
I can't tell if what you're doing is right
or wrong. What's more .. I don't care.

825
00:57:36,330 --> 00:57:39,969
Now, what are you crying for?
─ Because I'm crazy, that's why.

826
00:57:40,837 --> 00:57:44,804
Harriet, you go home and stay there.
Don't go to the office. Forget business.

827
00:57:45,165 --> 00:57:48,073
I'd burn the place down if I thought it
would make you happy for one minute.

828
00:57:48,103 --> 00:57:49,840
I don't want to be happy.

829
00:57:52,926 --> 00:57:55,503
I'm a fast-talking salesman
from 7th Avenue.

830
00:57:56,555 --> 00:57:58,395
You make me feel like a boy in love.

831
00:57:59,732 --> 00:58:02,607
Well, get me a cab,
boy .. I want to go home.

832
00:58:03,535 --> 00:58:05,485
I'll take you there.
─ No.

833
00:58:06,540 --> 00:58:08,568
No, I want to go home by myself.

834
00:58:10,311 --> 00:58:12,430
I've got a lot to think about tonight.

835
00:58:13,766 --> 00:58:15,240
A lot to think about.

836
00:58:27,954 --> 00:58:30,003
Don't wait Joe, I'll be a little while.

837
00:58:44,395 --> 00:58:45,395
Well?

838
00:58:45,672 --> 00:58:48,756
I think she .. took a tumble
from a high horse.

839
00:58:49,644 --> 00:58:50,789
What do you mean?

840
00:58:51,512 --> 00:58:53,709
I asked her to marry me.
─ And?

841
00:58:55,343 --> 00:58:57,071
She didn't say no.
─ Good.

842
00:58:58,616 --> 00:58:59,940
She's all upset, Sam.

843
00:59:01,264 --> 00:59:03,639
She needs a vacation,
and I've got an idea.

844
00:59:04,353 --> 00:59:07,085
I think I'll tell her we've decided
to give her a European trip.

845
00:59:07,669 --> 00:59:11,501
Let her go to Paris, see the Spring
shows. She dreams of those things.

846
00:59:12,092 --> 00:59:14,012
I'll pay for it. We'll tell
her it's the Company.

847
00:59:14,534 --> 00:59:17,679
As soon as I finish this sales-trip
on the road, I fly over to meet her.

848
00:59:18,115 --> 00:59:20,995
We'll have a good time, get married
and get back in time for next season.

849
00:59:21,164 --> 00:59:22,484
The Company will pay for it.
─ No.

850
00:59:22,769 --> 00:59:23,990
Yes.
─ I'll pay for it.

851
00:59:24,450 --> 00:59:27,079
You think her happiness and
yours, isn't my business?

852
00:59:31,943 --> 00:59:34,103
I know she's home right now,
kicking herself to pieces.

853
00:59:35,389 --> 00:59:36,798
I think I'll go tell her.

854
00:59:37,107 --> 00:59:39,305
Tell her all the partners are agreed.

855
00:59:40,902 --> 00:59:41,902
Well?

856
00:59:42,114 --> 00:59:45,768
Run Casanova, before she wakes up and
knows what a bad bargain she's getting.

857
01:00:04,518 --> 01:00:06,042
Boyd please.
─ Nobody is home.

858
01:00:06,250 --> 01:00:08,455
You sure?
─ Miss Boyd just went to the hospital.

859
01:00:08,575 --> 01:00:10,392
What?
─ Her daughter was just taken there.

860
01:00:11,378 --> 01:00:13,418
Where?
─ Midtown. She just left.

861
01:00:16,021 --> 01:00:17,667
Tax! Hey taxi, hey!

862
01:00:19,835 --> 01:00:21,699
Cab! Hey, cab ..

863
01:00:35,669 --> 01:00:36,669
Teddy.

864
01:00:37,131 --> 01:00:39,923
Mrs Boyd, what is ...?
─ Teddy, it's wonderful. It's a boy.

865
01:00:40,535 --> 01:00:41,835
It's a boy.
─ What do you mean?

866
01:00:42,085 --> 01:00:43,731
It was just like when I had Harriet.

867
01:00:43,940 --> 01:00:46,873
I tell you, Marge wasn't in that
delivery room more than 15 minutes.

868
01:00:46,993 --> 01:00:50,413
Well, you mean this is ...?
Congratulations .. Grandma ..

869
01:00:51,133 --> 01:00:54,218
Congratulations .. where's Harriet?

870
01:00:54,450 --> 01:00:56,366
Come on, we can see her
now, just for a minute.

871
01:00:56,486 --> 01:00:58,325
Teddy, how about that?
Congratulations, huh?

872
01:00:58,445 --> 01:01:01,206
If I had a cigar, I'd give you a cigar.
─ Here, I'll give you a cigar.

873
01:01:01,382 --> 01:01:02,735
Is Harriet in there?
─ Harriet?

874
01:01:03,104 --> 01:01:06,786
Her only sister, and she couldn't
even wait for the baby to be born.

875
01:01:07,032 --> 01:01:10,685
A dinner-date. That's more important.
─ A dinner-date? With whom?

876
01:01:11,216 --> 01:01:12,962
With whom do you think?
─ Skip it Ma.

877
01:01:13,497 --> 01:01:15,835
Come on Ma, let's go.
─ No, don't skip it, Ma.

878
01:01:16,384 --> 01:01:17,699
A dinner date with whom?

879
01:01:18,140 --> 01:01:21,727
With Mr Noble .. what's
happened to her Teddy?

880
01:01:22,327 --> 01:01:25,665
I used to think that maybe you and she ..
─ Ma, come on. We only got a minute.

881
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:29,033
Teddy ..
─ Easy, you'd better go in, for Marge.

882
01:01:31,156 --> 01:01:32,787
Say hello for me.

883
01:01:39,415 --> 01:01:43,492
I'm sorry Jay but .. that's how I feel.

884
01:01:43,821 --> 01:01:48,574
Having wounded my vanity both as a
man and as a Merchant Prince ..

885
01:01:48,985 --> 01:01:51,473
Would you mind telling me just
why you changed your mind?

886
01:01:52,002 --> 01:01:53,398
It's very simple.

887
01:01:54,208 --> 01:01:55,969
You are very attractive
and so is your offer.

888
01:01:56,873 --> 01:01:59,666
But I think in the long run I can
get more out of my own business.

889
01:02:00,347 --> 01:02:03,082
It will take longer .. but I'll
have more when it's over.

890
01:02:03,504 --> 01:02:07,507
Oh?
─ I'll have myself, for instance.

891
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:12,482
And let's not slight that young partner
of yours. You'll have him too.

892
01:02:12,942 --> 01:02:15,318
Yes .. and I'll have all of him.

893
01:02:15,980 --> 01:02:18,515
And I thought a little of me
would be worth all of him.

894
01:02:19,230 --> 01:02:22,468
I thought so too, once .. but
I don't think so anymore.

895
01:02:22,749 --> 01:02:25,510
I see .. do you mind if
I keep that sketch?

896
01:02:25,820 --> 01:02:27,031
I gave it to you.

897
01:02:27,151 --> 01:02:30,198
I'm going to have it framed and hung up
in my office with a motto underneath.

898
01:02:30,871 --> 01:02:33,669
"Never Underestimate The
Competition From 7th Avenue".

899
01:02:35,958 --> 01:02:37,578
Excuse me.

900
01:02:40,410 --> 01:02:45,851
Hello .. Oh he is? .. No ..
No, tell him to come up.

901
01:02:48,215 --> 01:02:53,848
We have an uninvited guest .. or was
he invited? That's your partner.

902
01:02:54,506 --> 01:02:56,665
My partner?
─ Yes, Mr Sherman.

903
01:02:57,064 --> 01:02:59,459
He's on his way up. I must
confess I'm a little puzzled.

904
01:02:59,709 --> 01:03:04,247
Is he coming here as an outraged lover,
or to deliver you from the lion's den?

905
01:03:05,785 --> 01:03:09,417
I'd like to know what role he is playing
to decide what part to play myself.

906
01:03:10,937 --> 01:03:12,422
I'm sorry Harriet but ..

907
01:03:13,015 --> 01:03:16,184
It would have been stupid not to invite
him up as he must know you are here.

908
01:03:16,407 --> 01:03:17,604
Of course.

909
01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:32,933
Ah .. good evening Mr Sherman.

910
01:03:35,168 --> 01:03:36,802
This will only take a minute.

911
01:03:45,479 --> 01:03:47,568
I see that Doctor Noble has
a cure for what ails you.

912
01:03:47,688 --> 01:03:50,677
There's plenty for everyone.
May I pour you a Martini?

913
01:03:51,005 --> 01:03:52,931
I'm not here to join
your party Mr Noble.

914
01:03:53,051 --> 01:03:56,227
I came take back a few things
I said to my partner this afternoon.

915
01:03:56,347 --> 01:03:59,100
Teddy .. listen to me.
─ Listen to you? You ..

916
01:04:09,322 --> 01:04:11,294
I suppose you got a good
story to cover this too?

917
01:04:12,386 --> 01:04:14,390
Well, you're both celebrating too soon.

918
01:04:14,700 --> 01:04:17,338
I want to tell you something Mr Noble
that Harriet once told me.

919
01:04:18,197 --> 01:04:19,517
She'll never get out of our deal.

920
01:04:19,634 --> 01:04:22,704
She's going to stick and make me rich
and make our Company a success.

921
01:04:23,869 --> 01:04:26,718
You'll design overalls if I want
you to, and you're going to like it!

922
01:04:27,671 --> 01:04:32,288
You lied, cheated and double-crossed your
way into a partnership with me and Cooper.

923
01:04:33,061 --> 01:04:36,385
And now you're lying, cheating and double
crossing your way into something better.

924
01:04:36,817 --> 01:04:38,442
Well, you can stop trying, you're stuck.

925
01:04:38,562 --> 01:04:40,780
Well, stop screaming like
a 7th Avenue salesman.

926
01:04:40,900 --> 01:04:45,010
I am a 7th Avenue salesman, but I'm
nobody's Teddy .. not even Harriet's.

927
01:04:45,855 --> 01:04:49,293
"Harriet of Nobles". You
made "Nobles" "Harriet".

928
01:04:52,981 --> 01:04:56,597
And I won't tell Cooper about your
dirty little scheme .. he likes you.

929
01:04:57,151 --> 01:04:58,803
It might break his heart.

930
01:05:08,114 --> 01:05:09,381
Can you get me out of it?

931
01:05:11,425 --> 01:05:16,022
He loves you .. but he wants to own you,
because he's a man who has nothing.

932
01:05:17,844 --> 01:05:21,496
I have everything, and all I want is to
share my pleasure in it with you.

933
01:05:21,616 --> 01:05:23,853
Can you get me out of it?
─ Yes.

934
01:05:29,724 --> 01:05:32,306
I've given Ellie a list of dates
and places where I'll be.

935
01:05:32,576 --> 01:05:34,499
You can expect the
first orders in a week.

936
01:05:34,619 --> 01:05:36,888
Take me along Mr Sherman,
you can double the business.

937
01:05:37,008 --> 01:05:39,390
Don't be in such a hurry to
grow up and become a failure.

938
01:05:39,510 --> 01:05:42,049
Be good Ellie. If you can't be
good, at least get in on time.

939
01:05:51,454 --> 01:05:52,897
Goodbye Sam.

940
01:05:56,254 --> 01:05:59,630
Harriet .. I can't stand such
a thing. Such an atmosphere.

941
01:06:00,028 --> 01:06:02,376
Two partners not talking to each other.

942
01:06:02,905 --> 01:06:04,686
Here are some sketches for the new line.

943
01:06:08,459 --> 01:06:09,935
Harriet .. wait.

944
01:06:11,811 --> 01:06:14,901
I don't understand, a gown for $10.95?

945
01:06:15,021 --> 01:06:17,501
And made of these
materials? You're crazy.

946
01:06:17,708 --> 01:06:19,586
Our prices are going up Sam.

947
01:06:20,553 --> 01:06:23,454
Four-Eyes, clear those material racks,
all of them .. right away please.

948
01:06:23,774 --> 01:06:27,217
The new materials are coming in tonight.
─ Impossible. This for the $10.95 gown?

949
01:06:27,487 --> 01:06:30,269
We're forming a second corporation.
With Sherboyco assets.

950
01:06:30,389 --> 01:06:32,783
"Harriet Boyd Originals".
They'll make the line.

951
01:06:35,349 --> 01:06:36,654
You'll do this without Teddy?

952
01:06:36,998 --> 01:06:38,606
I won't let you Harriet. You can't.

953
01:06:38,934 --> 01:06:42,320
What should I do? Get down on my hands
and knees and beg him to talk to me?

954
01:06:42,761 --> 01:06:44,856
We're in business to make
a profit, aren't we?

955
01:06:45,261 --> 01:06:49,203
Well, the Harriet Boyd line is guaranteed
a profit of 50,000 for the first season.

956
01:06:49,323 --> 01:06:50,417
50,000?
─ Yes!

957
01:06:50,658 --> 01:06:53,804
I never want to see anything
for $10.95 again as long as I live.

958
01:07:06,696 --> 01:07:11,363
Hello .. yes .. It's Dallas,
Texas .. Teddy.

959
01:07:13,194 --> 01:07:16,687
Hello .. Teddy .. how are you Teddy?

960
01:07:17,119 --> 01:07:20,302
Fine, fine .. I'm mailing
you three fat ones.

961
01:07:20,856 --> 01:07:22,753
And a whopper from Hermione Griggs.

962
01:07:23,673 --> 01:07:26,494
Yeah, got that flow, got that
rhythm. You working hard?

963
01:07:26,959 --> 01:07:30,818
Naturally .. naturally.
Alright Teddy, alright.

964
01:07:31,519 --> 01:07:33,857
Yeah .. yeah .. goodbye.

965
01:07:36,580 --> 01:07:39,557
We're going to have to tell him Harriet.
Every day we're in worse trouble.

966
01:07:39,829 --> 01:07:41,429
This is great trouble if you can get it.

967
01:07:41,461 --> 01:07:44,082
He keeps sending in orders
and we can't fill them.

968
01:07:44,750 --> 01:07:45,980
Sam, listen to me.

969
01:07:47,159 --> 01:07:51,576
In four weeks we've jumped from a cheap
little dress house to a gown house.

970
01:07:51,970 --> 01:07:55,191
We have the Noble stores as a
client, a profit on every garment ..

971
01:07:55,311 --> 01:07:56,477
And a future as millionaires.

972
01:07:56,812 --> 01:07:59,056
Is that trouble?
─ No, that's not trouble.

973
01:07:59,324 --> 01:08:01,366
Well relax Mr Millionaire, and be happy.

974
01:08:01,826 --> 01:08:04,070
Until Teddy gets back,
I'll try and be happy.

975
01:08:04,190 --> 01:08:05,190
Oh Sam, now ..

976
01:08:05,563 --> 01:08:07,488
Teddy Sherman is marching
through the south.

977
01:08:07,835 --> 01:08:10,288
But believe me, the big battle
will be on 7th Avenue.

978
01:08:10,664 --> 01:08:12,549
If it's a battle he wants, he'll get it.

979
01:09:16,333 --> 01:09:19,247
Delivered between the 15th and
the 30th. You've got my word on it.

980
01:09:19,867 --> 01:09:23,867
Anything goes wrong, you drop me a
note personally. I'll take care of it. Bye.

981
01:09:31,403 --> 01:09:35,187
Let's see now, you are Miss Moore, right?
Thank you very much Miss Moore.

982
01:09:35,553 --> 01:09:37,806
And Miss Tate, thank you
very much Miss Tate.

983
01:09:38,126 --> 01:09:40,436
And you are Miss Lane, thank
you very much Miss Lane.

984
01:09:40,971 --> 01:09:42,473
Just a minute, I'll take those.

985
01:09:42,745 --> 01:09:45,105
Girls .. help yourselves to any
of this stuff that you want.

986
01:09:45,205 --> 01:09:48,267
Make yourselves right at home.
Thanks again. See you next year.

987
01:09:48,387 --> 01:09:49,694
Goodbye.

988
01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:05,880
Hello.

989
01:10:06,504 --> 01:10:10,551
Teddy .. this is Hermione ..
Getting enough fried chicken?

990
01:10:11,631 --> 01:10:12,748
Plenty .. you miss me?

991
01:10:12,868 --> 01:10:15,518
Just pick the models out
of your hair and listen dear.

992
01:10:15,846 --> 01:10:18,578
I'm confused.
─ What do you mean, honey?

993
01:10:18,954 --> 01:10:23,132
I mean honey .. I want to do a big
promotion on that order I gave you.

994
01:10:23,592 --> 01:10:27,048
And when I called Cooper and asked
when I could expect my first deliveries ..

995
01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:28,832
All I got was double-talk.

996
01:10:29,179 --> 01:10:33,339
Now I can't sell double-talk Teddy.
I can listen to it, but I can't sell it.

997
01:10:34,409 --> 01:10:37,442
That's funny. Maybe they're
a little snowed under.

998
01:10:38,043 --> 01:10:41,132
Okay, lover-boy, but I need
this stuff or I'll have to cancel.

999
01:10:42,235 --> 01:10:44,977
This isn't all romance.
─ Check.

1000
01:10:45,678 --> 01:10:47,687
Bye now, I'll get back to you .. bye.

1001
01:10:54,430 --> 01:10:58,655
Hello operator. I want to talk to
Circle 72099 in New York City.

1002
01:10:59,735 --> 01:11:00,834
Alright, thank you.

1003
01:11:20,509 --> 01:11:22,709
Hello.
─ "New York ready sir. Go ahead."

1004
01:11:23,116 --> 01:11:25,482
Hello Sam.
─ Hello Teddy.

1005
01:11:25,868 --> 01:11:27,999
Sam, what's with the orders?
I'm getting complaints.

1006
01:11:28,619 --> 01:11:30,581
We're doing what we can Teddy.

1007
01:11:31,126 --> 01:11:34,245
Well it's not good enough Sam. Are
you trying to sabotage the business?

1008
01:11:34,826 --> 01:11:37,662
You better come home, Teddy.
─ Come home? Why?

1009
01:11:37,915 --> 01:11:39,521
Because! That's why .. come home.

1010
01:11:40,291 --> 01:11:41,925
We have a little problem.

1011
01:11:42,798 --> 01:11:45,746
Alright. I'll clean up in Nashville,
and catch the plane tomorrow.

1012
01:11:45,972 --> 01:11:47,915
I'll be home the day after
tomorrow .. what's up?

1013
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:50,551
I'll meet you at the airport.
Wire me the plane.

1014
01:11:51,051 --> 01:11:52,094
Okay.

1015
01:12:14,752 --> 01:12:18,123
They're lovely, really lovely Miss Boyd.
─ Thank you very much.

1016
01:12:18,423 --> 01:12:20,620
And when do we get started
on them Mr Noble?

1017
01:12:20,911 --> 01:12:23,192
We'll probably release the
New York advertising in a week.

1018
01:12:23,381 --> 01:12:25,063
And be ready to make
deliveries in three.

1019
01:12:25,278 --> 01:12:27,231
Goodbye.
─ Goodbye Miss Boyd.

1020
01:12:33,874 --> 01:12:35,890
Miss Chapman, will you come in please.

1021
01:12:40,046 --> 01:12:41,163
Yes Mr Noble?

1022
01:12:41,283 --> 01:12:43,482
You can confirm the reservations
for tomorrow night.

1023
01:12:43,924 --> 01:12:46,623
And have Miss Boyd's baggage and
mine picked up in the afternoon.

1024
01:12:46,846 --> 01:12:47,846
Yes sir.

1025
01:12:48,352 --> 01:12:50,596
Bring in the tickets right away, please.
─ Certainly.

1026
01:13:02,713 --> 01:13:06,598
It seems to me you could resign yourself
more gracefully to being rich and famous.

1027
01:13:07,044 --> 01:13:08,218
What's the matter?

1028
01:13:09,462 --> 01:13:11,469
I keep wondering what
Teddy is going to say.

1029
01:13:11,763 --> 01:13:16,434
Well, it will be loud and unpleasant
no doubt .. but why worry about it?

1030
01:13:17,031 --> 01:13:21,809
If he doesn't like it, we'll return the
dresses and the order is canceled.

1031
01:13:22,795 --> 01:13:24,942
That will, effectively bankrupt
your little company.

1032
01:13:25,224 --> 01:13:30,177
And you'll be free next season instead
of this. Either way, you'll be at Nobles.

1033
01:13:32,079 --> 01:13:37,020
Really Harriet, your Mr Sherman has no
choice but to accept and grow rich.

1034
01:13:38,130 --> 01:13:39,130
I suppose so.

1035
01:13:39,648 --> 01:13:42,406
Do stop thinking about it.
Think about this instead.

1036
01:13:44,064 --> 01:13:46,546
The layouts for the newspapers
and the magazines.

1037
01:13:47,125 --> 01:13:48,779
Harper's Bazaar - four full pages.

1038
01:13:50,053 --> 01:13:52,334
And here's the picture of you
that we're running in Vogue.

1039
01:13:54,137 --> 01:13:55,802
Well, I'll say this for you Jay ..

1040
01:13:56,269 --> 01:13:57,775
You really keep your promises.

1041
01:13:57,835 --> 01:14:00,549
Right down to the last, most
extravagant part of them.

1042
01:14:08,539 --> 01:14:11,515
By this time next week, you'll
be comfortably settled in Paris.

1043
01:14:12,531 --> 01:14:15,338
You'll be going to Paris every
season to see the fashions.

1044
01:14:15,510 --> 01:14:17,765
You're going to be very happy, Harriet.
─ Am I?

1045
01:14:18,504 --> 01:14:20,307
I've mapped out plans
for your whole life.

1046
01:14:20,427 --> 01:14:22,190
All you've got to do is follow them.

1047
01:14:23,150 --> 01:14:25,550
I don't always follow other
people's plans, Jay.

1048
01:14:26,255 --> 01:14:27,996
It's an old habit of mine.

1049
01:14:29,022 --> 01:14:34,039
To get you out of your partnership,
I've had to violate old habits of mine.

1050
01:14:34,465 --> 01:14:36,411
Such as making a deal that isn't one.

1051
01:14:36,973 --> 01:14:40,776
But I'm not complaining, so long as
everything is above board between us.

1052
01:14:41,686 --> 01:14:43,967
We understand one another
perfectly .. don't we?

1053
01:14:45,924 --> 01:14:50,162
Yes .. of course we do. I'm
just a little tired, that's all.

1054
01:14:51,656 --> 01:14:54,818
Well .. we can skip dinner
tonight if you'd rather rest.

1055
01:14:55,112 --> 01:14:56,962
Oh no, no. I want to go out to dinner.

1056
01:14:57,556 --> 01:14:59,285
I can rest in Paris.

1057
01:14:59,899 --> 01:15:01,560
Rest on the boat my dear.

1058
01:15:02,416 --> 01:15:04,154
No-one rests in Paris.

1059
01:15:11,966 --> 01:15:15,326
Thanks Ma.
─ What time are you expecting Teddy?

1060
01:15:15,897 --> 01:15:18,327
Six o'clock. I'm going to
meet him at the office.

1061
01:15:18,552 --> 01:15:23,705
I don't suppose you'd want me and your
other relatives down to see you off?

1062
01:15:27,379 --> 01:15:29,800
If that means no, I agree with you.

1063
01:15:44,062 --> 01:15:45,482
The car is downstairs Miss Boyd.

1064
01:15:45,707 --> 01:15:49,014
I'll take care of this. The rest of
the bags are in the bedroom.

1065
01:15:52,155 --> 01:15:54,609
How long will you be gone?
─ Two months.

1066
01:15:55,821 --> 01:15:58,694
I'll look for a new apartment for myself.
─ Why?

1067
01:16:00,086 --> 01:16:02,906
You'll be needing one of your own now.
─ Stop that!

1068
01:16:03,667 --> 01:16:05,638
I have to make my plans.

1069
01:16:12,204 --> 01:16:16,589
Well .. goodbye Ma.

1070
01:16:18,129 --> 01:16:19,481
Goodbye Harriet.

1071
01:16:38,833 --> 01:16:40,603
Alright, let's have it.

1072
01:16:41,369 --> 01:16:43,706
Not while you look so mad,
Teddy. I can't talk to you.

1073
01:16:43,898 --> 01:16:46,840
Sam, quit stalling.
─ Relax a little first.

1074
01:16:47,861 --> 01:16:50,717
At least, finish your cigarette.
Then I'll tell you.

1075
01:16:53,287 --> 01:16:54,287
Well?

1076
01:16:55,762 --> 01:16:56,983
Alright ..

1077
01:16:58,268 --> 01:17:03,161
Welcome home Mr Sherman,
or as we say in French: Bonjour.

1078
01:17:03,629 --> 01:17:06,145
We had a revolution Mr Sherman.
─ Any casualties?

1079
01:17:06,381 --> 01:17:10,008
Well, Miss Boyd's waiting. She don't
have much time. Her boat sails tonight.

1080
01:17:10,352 --> 01:17:13,555
Her boat? Where to?
─ La belle France, where else?

1081
01:17:14,141 --> 01:17:17,767
We're in the Haut Monde right now.
Couture and style ..

1082
01:17:18,136 --> 01:17:20,176
I'm going to night-school
to learn the right accent.

1083
01:17:20,388 --> 01:17:23,305
Well, bon soir.
─ Bon soir Papa.

1084
01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:31,360
Yeah ..

1085
01:17:45,120 --> 01:17:46,120
Teddy.

1086
01:17:47,067 --> 01:17:48,418
I want to talk to you.

1087
01:17:49,143 --> 01:17:50,811
I've had a full report.

1088
01:17:51,614 --> 01:17:54,760
And to quote Four-Eyes: "Bon-Voyage".

1089
01:17:56,246 --> 01:17:59,906
Is that all you have to say?
─ Oh .. I almost forgot.

1090
01:18:00,948 --> 01:18:02,377
I got you a going-away present.

1091
01:18:04,296 --> 01:18:05,296
One dollar.

1092
01:18:06,914 --> 01:18:09,983
By next year, you'll be able
to afford a real one as easily.

1093
01:18:38,585 --> 01:18:41,831
I told you when we started this
partnership, that I'd make you rich.

1094
01:18:42,403 --> 01:18:45,544
Well, I've delivered on my
promises .. I always do.

1095
01:18:46,054 --> 01:18:47,488
Don't I Sam?
─ Always.

1096
01:18:48,262 --> 01:18:50,970
It there is a thing about Harriet Boyd,
she's a girl who delivers.

1097
01:18:51,324 --> 01:18:53,571
Anywhere, anytime, any price.

1098
01:18:54,099 --> 01:18:56,642
I don't see you turning down
any of the dirty money.

1099
01:18:57,284 --> 01:19:00,264
Look partner, I know when
I'm in a squeeze-play.

1100
01:19:00,882 --> 01:19:02,624
There's no contract on the orders.

1101
01:19:02,882 --> 01:19:06,084
If I quit, Noble pulls the plug, and our
company goes down the drain, bankrupt.

1102
01:19:06,454 --> 01:19:08,073
Then you are free to go ahead with him.

1103
01:19:08,662 --> 01:19:11,222
You get what you want anyway,
that's plain, and I can't stop you.

1104
01:19:11,657 --> 01:19:12,657
So I won't try.

1105
01:19:13,127 --> 01:19:16,241
I learned that lesson the first time
five guys jumped me in an alley.

1106
01:19:16,725 --> 01:19:20,217
You enjoy feeling sorry for
yourself .. you can afford it.

1107
01:19:20,594 --> 01:19:23,645
I got a surprise for you. We
decided NOT to afford it!

1108
01:19:24,791 --> 01:19:27,271
You turned everything into dirt,
and Sam and I don't like dirt.

1109
01:19:27,357 --> 01:19:28,583
We don't like living in it.

1110
01:19:29,660 --> 01:19:31,294
Yeah, that's right .. you heard me.

1111
01:19:32,007 --> 01:19:33,904
We're not delivering.

1112
01:19:37,539 --> 01:19:41,683
We're stopping production, we're closing
down, we're out on the street, broke.

1113
01:19:42,197 --> 01:19:45,136
Flat .. finished. Every dime we
own, or ever hoped to own.

1114
01:19:45,417 --> 01:19:47,735
Get it? Broke, out of
business. Bankrupt.

1115
01:19:48,078 --> 01:19:50,524
You can't .. I won't let you.

1116
01:19:51,611 --> 01:19:54,563
You're going to deliver on those orders.
The money's there, it's waiting for you.

1117
01:19:54,593 --> 01:19:56,978
Well, it will grow old and
gray waiting for us.

1118
01:19:57,358 --> 01:19:59,396
You wrecked our little dress
business .. and now ..

1119
01:19:59,922 --> 01:20:01,642
We're going to wreck
your big gown business.

1120
01:20:02,383 --> 01:20:04,583
We're finished because we
don't like what you've done.

1121
01:20:04,703 --> 01:20:07,613
So don't throw us a diamond-studded
bone and try and make us like it.

1122
01:20:09,727 --> 01:20:10,870
Come on, Sam.

1123
01:20:14,247 --> 01:20:16,824
Sam .. he just wants to humiliate me.

1124
01:20:17,247 --> 01:20:20,430
But you'll lose everything.
Every penny you've ever saved.

1125
01:20:20,670 --> 01:20:22,658
Your house .. the work of a lifetime.

1126
01:20:22,990 --> 01:20:25,761
You have a wife and a daughter.
He's got nothing. He doesn't care.

1127
01:20:25,928 --> 01:20:28,379
He just wants to make me feel like ..
─ Like what you are!

1128
01:20:28,761 --> 01:20:31,347
Like what you always
were. You're a cheap ..

1129
01:20:40,984 --> 01:20:42,040
Sam.

1130
01:20:42,704 --> 01:20:46,608
That teddy is such a fool,
always saying the wrong things.

1131
01:20:49,350 --> 01:20:51,831
Of course .. he was just bluffing.

1132
01:20:52,236 --> 01:20:54,532
He was, wasn't he? He was
just trying to scare me.

1133
01:20:54,805 --> 01:20:57,365
Scare you? No ..

1134
01:20:58,866 --> 01:21:02,402
He didn't say what he wanted
to say: that we both love you.

1135
01:21:03,660 --> 01:21:06,962
I, like a father .. and Teddy, like Teddy.

1136
01:21:07,620 --> 01:21:11,134
You know him, a bit
loud, a joke, a laugh.

1137
01:21:11,688 --> 01:21:13,210
But with his heart in his mouth.

1138
01:21:14,468 --> 01:21:16,131
We are going bankrupt.

1139
01:21:16,935 --> 01:21:20,682
We're closing up even though it means
the end of all our plans and hopes.

1140
01:21:21,483 --> 01:21:23,225
But not because we hate you.

1141
01:21:25,231 --> 01:21:26,427
Teddy is right.

1142
01:21:27,333 --> 01:21:30,368
When it comes to choose between
money and someone you love ..

1143
01:21:31,758 --> 01:21:33,632
What choice can a man make?

1144
01:21:36,165 --> 01:21:37,186
Good luck Harriet.

1145
01:22:05,966 --> 01:22:07,365
Madam!

1146
01:22:08,469 --> 01:22:09,516
Madam!

1147
01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:11,724
Your boarding ticket ..
─ What?

1148
01:22:11,970 --> 01:22:15,068
Your boarding ticket please.
─ Oh yes. It's here somewhere.

1149
01:22:15,188 --> 01:22:18,250
How much time before the boat sails?
─ About fifteen minutes.

1150
01:22:18,780 --> 01:22:21,491
That will the last shore call.

1151
01:22:28,639 --> 01:22:31,266
Suite "D", "A" Deck please.
─ Passageway directly ahead Ma'am.

1152
01:22:31,386 --> 01:22:32,686
Thank you very much.

1153
01:22:46,787 --> 01:22:49,440
Have you seen Jay anywhere?
─ Harriet, what happened?

1154
01:22:49,678 --> 01:22:51,478
Jay, I've got to talk to you.
─ Well go ahead.

1155
01:22:51,668 --> 01:22:52,917
No, I mean alone.

1156
01:22:53,727 --> 01:22:56,447
Won't it wait until our guests leave?
─ There isn't any time. Please.

1157
01:22:56,547 --> 01:22:57,547
Jay ..

1158
01:23:00,110 --> 01:23:02,446
Jay, we've got to postpone this trip.

1159
01:23:03,265 --> 01:23:04,331
I beg your pardon?

1160
01:23:04,451 --> 01:23:06,271
We've got to get off the
boat. We can't sail.

1161
01:23:06,636 --> 01:23:09,036
Harriet, you're not making sense.
What are you talking about?

1162
01:23:09,082 --> 01:23:12,425
They won't deliver the gowns .. you've
got to go back and make them deliver.

1163
01:23:12,926 --> 01:23:15,846
You can do it through the banks, through
the mills. You can force them to.

1164
01:23:16,130 --> 01:23:18,799
But why? .. Why should I?
─ Why?

1165
01:23:19,432 --> 01:23:22,659
Don't you understand what I'm saying?
They've decided to go bankrupt.

1166
01:23:23,008 --> 01:23:26,334
If they think they can afford the gesture,
let them. I shall rejoin our guests.

1167
01:23:26,659 --> 01:23:29,378
You mean, you won't do anything?
─ Certainly not.

1168
01:23:29,818 --> 01:23:30,818
Jay!

1169
01:23:33,433 --> 01:23:35,993
You've got to .. I can't
let them go bankrupt.

1170
01:23:37,498 --> 01:23:41,228
Harriet, I will not make Mr Sherman's
solvency the basis of our relationship.

1171
01:23:41,998 --> 01:23:44,638
If you can't be happy with me
unless Mr Sherman is happy too ..

1172
01:23:44,884 --> 01:23:46,124
That has nothing to do with it.

1173
01:23:47,418 --> 01:23:49,819
"We're leaving, Jay".
─ Just a minute.

1174
01:23:50,483 --> 01:23:54,618
Simply, I will not lift a finger to keep
Sherboyco from going down the drain.

1175
01:24:03,693 --> 01:24:07,768
If you want to prevent Mr Sherman's
bankruptcy, just go back to him.

1176
01:24:09,764 --> 01:24:13,207
Go back to him?
─ Yes .. the choice you have to make.

1177
01:24:13,848 --> 01:24:16,805
Sherboyco or Nobles.
Teddy Sherman or me.

1178
01:24:20,594 --> 01:24:22,468
And you haven't much time.

1179
01:24:25,521 --> 01:24:27,113
Do you want me to go back to him?

1180
01:24:28,394 --> 01:24:30,021
No Harriet, I want you to stay.

1181
01:24:30,804 --> 01:24:32,520
But only if you really want to stay.

1182
01:24:33,708 --> 01:24:36,475
I have no intention of spending
the best years of my life ..

1183
01:24:36,595 --> 01:24:40,108
As a psychoanalyst to a woman who won't
admit she's in love with another man.

1184
01:24:40,341 --> 01:24:43,228
Me? In love with that big baboon?

1185
01:24:43,463 --> 01:24:46,719
That loud-mouthed salesman with his
lady buyers and his cheap wisecracks.

1186
01:24:47,278 --> 01:24:50,541
Your description is a trifle cruel
perhaps, but that's the man I mean.

1187
01:24:50,661 --> 01:24:53,043
That's ridiculous. I only
wanted you to do ..

1188
01:24:53,163 --> 01:24:55,310
Unfortunately Harriet,
you want too many things.

1189
01:24:56,498 --> 01:25:01,069
You wanted to leave a $10.95 dress
house for a shining career at Nobles.

1190
01:25:02,032 --> 01:25:06,431
I arranged that .. now you want to
luxuriate in a happy conscience as well.

1191
01:25:07,132 --> 01:25:08,822
That, I'm afraid, cannot be arranged.

1192
01:25:10,136 --> 01:25:15,467
I'm happy for you to find fulfillment,
but not to find it for the man you loved.

1193
01:25:16,035 --> 01:25:18,832
I don't love him.
─ So you keep saying.

1194
01:25:19,627 --> 01:25:23,384
Of course I understand your reluctance
to crawl back on your hands and knees.

1195
01:25:23,504 --> 01:25:27,395
He'll probably insist on that .. and
we must admit with some justice.

1196
01:25:28,313 --> 01:25:31,588
But crawling on one's hands and knees
is good for the soul sometimes.

1197
01:25:32,151 --> 01:25:34,597
It has a nice effect on
one's elevated notions.

1198
01:25:35,524 --> 01:25:37,442
I know .. I crawled once.

1199
01:25:37,930 --> 01:25:42,021
Being a victim of great pride, I crawled
too slowly and got back too late.

1200
01:25:43,138 --> 01:25:45,583
Now, we wouldn't want that to
happen to you Harriet, would we.

1201
01:25:46,055 --> 01:25:49,943
So, if Mr Sherman is the one you
want .. I suggest you start crawling.

1202
01:25:50,190 --> 01:25:52,059
I don't want him. You're crazy.

1203
01:25:53,383 --> 01:25:56,445
Very well then. Let's leave Mr Sherman
to his little bankruptcy ..

1204
01:25:56,758 --> 01:25:59,093
Say goodbye to our guests,
and start unpacking.

1205
01:25:59,872 --> 01:26:02,908
"Last warning .. all ashore
that's going ashore."

1206
01:26:03,216 --> 01:26:05,658
I'm sure you'll find your
suite most attractive.

1207
01:26:22,071 --> 01:26:23,373
I'm sorry, Jay.

1208
01:26:26,638 --> 01:26:28,081
I'm sorry too.

1209
01:26:37,943 --> 01:26:42,148
Goodbye Jay.
─ I'll send you a postcard from Paris.

1210
01:27:25,918 --> 01:27:28,794
What about that rayon from last
season Sam? What's the full amount?

1211
01:27:29,068 --> 01:27:31,532
About fourteen hundred dollars, even.

1212
01:27:46,029 --> 01:27:48,629
That's enough for one night Sam.
We'll start again in the morning.

1213
01:27:50,137 --> 01:27:51,137
I'm back.

1214
01:27:51,496 --> 01:27:54,774
Why? Did Noble find you going through his
pockets and have you thrown off the boat?

1215
01:27:54,804 --> 01:27:57,056
No .. not exactly.

1216
01:27:59,676 --> 01:28:01,531
He told me I was in love with you.

1217
01:28:02,763 --> 01:28:04,412
That's why he wouldn't let me stay.

1218
01:28:04,870 --> 01:28:06,738
Because I was in love with you, he said.

1219
01:28:08,734 --> 01:28:10,304
What about you? What did you say?

1220
01:28:10,961 --> 01:28:15,491
I said: "Me in love with that big
baboon? That cheap salesman? That .."

1221
01:28:18,695 --> 01:28:20,085
I forget now what I said.

1222
01:28:20,604 --> 01:28:23,340
I don't forget so easy .. I
haven't forgotten a thing.

1223
01:28:23,841 --> 01:28:26,454
Teddy, wait .. listen to me.

1224
01:28:27,682 --> 01:28:29,406
Maybe 7th Avenue is a jungle.

1225
01:28:30,198 --> 01:28:32,918
But that doesn't mean that you have
to live like a wild animal in it.

1226
01:28:33,875 --> 01:28:36,207
Harriet's found that out. So she came back.

1227
01:28:38,077 --> 01:28:43,034
And remember Teddy .. it isn't easy to
walk back in after you walk out.

1228
01:28:43,857 --> 01:28:45,634
It's easier to stay out.

1229
01:28:47,576 --> 01:28:53,144
And Harriet .. it isn't easy
to say: "Please come back".

1230
01:28:55,001 --> 01:28:58,248
Besides .. falling in
love is always a mess.

1231
01:28:59,488 --> 01:29:02,391
What can you expect
from two .. strangers?

1232
01:29:04,314 --> 01:29:06,470
Let me at least introduce you.

1233
01:29:07,561 --> 01:29:10,086
Teddy .. this is Harriet.

1234
01:29:11,423 --> 01:29:13,719
Harriet .. this is Teddy.

1235
01:29:46,483 --> 01:29:49,501
