Princeton, Philadelphia, track 22.

Washington, Richmond, and points south

ready on track 15.

Uh, pardon me, sir...

Here, you can keep them.

Uh... oh, thanks.

0h, excuse me, sir, could you tell me

how to get out of this place?

- Well, you go up. - Oh.

0h, where does that take you?

Seventh Avenue. You just in from camp, huh?

Yes, that's right.

Well, you got a nice day for it.

- Yes, I, uh... - Yeah?

Certainly is a big place, isn't it?

Yeah, it certainly is. You... you a stranger here?

- Yes, sir, I am. - Well, you'll like it here.

- Goodbye. - Um, uh...

What are some of the things to see?

- Well, uh, how long you got? - Just two days.

Now, what do you think would be the best thing

to do on a Sunday?

I work here, but I live in Jersey.

It's the first time in 11 years

I've been here on a Sunday.

But you'll find plenty to keep you busy.

- Goodbye. - Well, thanks.

Soldier! Look behind you!

- Who, me? - No, behind you.

What did you do, sprain your ankle?

- No, no... - You wanna stay off that foot.

If you twisted it, you don't want to put any weight on it.

You can do yourself a lot of harm if you're not careful.

You know, a friend of mine did one of this, uh...

- Say, the heel fell off. - Yes, I know.

That's what I was trying to tell you down there

but you wouldn't listen.

Oh, I'm sorry, uh...

Uh, you stay here. I'll go get it for you.

What was it, just a little heel?

I found it! I got it!

I... I'm sorry

I didn't know what you meant.

Thank you.

Would you help me down, please?

Thank you.

- Oh, here. - No, it's perfectly alright.

- I can do this by myself. - No.

- I think I better help you. - No, it's alright.

Now, you'll want to stay off that foot with the heel

off it, because you might really twist it.

You'll be alright, ma'am, you want to keep

your shoe off the floor, though or you might

get those nails in your foot.

- I'm alright. - Well, I... oh, look!

There's a shoe repair shop! Come on.

- It's closed. - Well, let's try it.

0h, he's gonna open it.

Look, uh, we've... we've got a busted heel.

0h, uh, where does that take you?

- Fifth Avenue. - Oh, fifth Avenue.

- Uh-huh. - Uh, well, is that far?

No, not very, it's only about...

Well, look, I don't suppose you'd...

Well, see, I'm so new around here, iwondered

do you mind if I go a little ways with you

- no, not... not if you want to. - Oh, thank you.

- Oh, say, this is a city. - Isn't it?

These buildings, the way they go right up

- more or less. - Pass, please.

I bet you get a cold downwind through here in the winter.

Pile up a lot of snow, too.

We got a little gully out home

and the wind comes down there 80 miles an...

- How much is it? - Two dimes. Put them in there.

I guess he thought I was trying to get away with something.

This city must seem very strange to you.

Oh, yes, ma'am. I'm green as grass.

I suppose you've lived here all your life?

.\

Oh, you mean you're a stranger here yourself?

No, not exactly. I work here.

I came here three years ago.

Oh, you got folks here, then.

No. There's radio city up ahead.

You mean you live all alone?

.\

There's Saint Patrick's cathedral.

Uh, you're not married, are you?

No, I live with another girl.

Oh. Well, what do you do, if you don't mind my asking?

I'm a secretary in an office.

Oh, I see.

Uh, well, what kind of an office do you work in

- Gesundheit. - Oh, thank you.

Uh, what kind of an office do you work in...

- Just an office. - Oh.

I guess you think I'm pretty nosy?

- Yes, you are. - Yeah, I guess so. I'm sorry.

Well, it doesn't really matter...

- Ah-choo! - Gesundheit.

You're not catching cold, are you?

No. No, it's the sun.

It always does this to me.

I always sneeze exactly twice

and then I'm all through.

- There you are. - Oh, hadn't you better keep it?

No, I'm all finished. Thank you very much.

Don't you think you ought to get off here?

I mean, we're almost to the park.

Well, I didn't have anywhere to go.

I was just going along with you and...

Uh, but if I bother you...

Oh, no, of course you don't bother me.

- I didn't mean that. - Are you sure? Good.

I just mean that this bus doesn't go very far...

- You say it went to the park? - Yes.

You mean they've got a park right in the middle of all this

with trees and grass and everything?

Yes, I think you'd enjoy it.

There's a lake and there's a children's...

You wouldn't care to walk just a little

with me in the park, would you?

No, that's out of the question. I can't.

- I've got to get home. - Oh you mean you're in a hurry?

Yes, I'm going...

- Ah-choo! - Gesundheit.

Thank you.

Oh, I never get tired of watching them.

They're such comedians.

Did you ever stop to think how some animals

remind you so much of people you know?

Yes, I... I know exactly what you mean.

Well, you take that one, the one that just got up on the rock...

I've got an aunt looks just like that.

You know, it's funny, when I was in school

they always used to tell me I looked exactly like an owl.

Oh, that's ridiculous, you don't look like...

You do!

You look exactly like an owl.

Ah, now, let me see...

- What is it you remind me of? - Never mind.

Oh, look at that.

The boat's bigger than he is.

0h, kids are a great study

when you get to know them.

- Live in a world all their own. - Yeah.

Hiya, skipper, where did you get that boat?

Hey! Take your hands off that boat!

Who do you think you are?

I... I... I don't get it.

I usually get along great with kids.

Out home, they follow me around.

Well, I've really got to go home now.

Yeah, well, you've been awfully nice.

Well, I... I suppose I really shouldn't keep you any longer

it certainly made an awful lot of difference

having someone to talk to like this.

Uh, well, I don't know.

Let's see, uh...

What is this? 79th street.

There's a museum over there.

It's open on sundays.

I think maybe that's something you ought to see.

Yeah, well, that's an idea.

I've only been there once or twice myself.

It's a shame. I ought to go there more often.

Here.

0h, we had a picture of that on the wall at school.

Did you? So did we.

Gee, those long afternoons looking at that thing

wishing that it were 3 o'clock and could get out the old bat.

I know what you mean.

You know what? I was just thinking.

I was just thinking how lucky I am.

Shall we go up and see the paintings?

There's a bully like that in every school.

Yeah. Well, this one was tough.

- And a lot bigger than me, too. - Were you afraid?

Well, sure. And half the school was watching.

I had to make up my mind in an awful hurry.

I guess so. What did you do?

Why, I punched the guy right in the nose.

0h, what's the matter, fella?

Aw, he wouldn't hurt you

would you?

Oh, no.

No. Children usually love him.

- They follow him around. - Well...

We must have walked

Yes.

Oh, I don't think I could ever get used to this city.

Anyhow, this isn't what I want.

- How do you know? - Oh, I know what I want.

- You do? - Uh-huh.

I want a little business of my own out home in mapleton.

You mean you want to live there always?

- That's right. - Why?

0h, because it's my home.

I was never away from home very much before.

Not that I don't want to get around and see things

but, I don't know, I get to thinking

I can almost smell the grass outside the house.

Dad used to mow the lawn before dinner.

- No. - Why did you ask that?

- I just wondered. - No, I didn't have a dog.

I got it all figured out.

After the war, I'm gonna be a builder.

Uh, no. You know, more like a carpenter.

Uh, I want to put up houses myself.

They say that houses are all going to be alike

made out of plastics and things

like boxes you buy in a store.

0h, not in mapleton, they won't.

Why do you want to be a contractor, Joe

or a carpenter?

Oh, I like working with wood.

I like the grain and I like the feel of it.

I like the idea of building things with my own hands.

Yes, I do, I think.

Someday I'd like to build my own house.

I got a few ideas about it and I've got a wonderful location

picked out for it, too, there's a piece of ground that runs down

to the creek with two giant black walnut trees on it.

I could put the house right in between those two trees...

I know what you mean, we've got a house like that back home.

It sits way out up a hill and you can see

way out across the valley.

Yeah. Well, this place I've got in mind...

Is that the closing bell? What time is it?

- 5 o'clock. - Oh, it's late! I've got to go.

Look, Emma, this is what I meant.

"Sphinx of queen hatshepsut, from her mortuary temple

- Hmm, very interesting. - Partly restored.

Cleopatra's needle is restored, too.

You can see where they restored it.

Say, have we time for a soda?

- Yeah, sure we have. Come on! - Get going.

You know, you can learn a lot at a museum.

It's been a nice afternoon.

Well, I guess this is goodbye.

Yes, I guess so.

I, uh, I suppose you're probably busy tonight?

- Oh, yes, I am. - Uh-huh.

Well, thanks a lot for being so nice.

Oh, no, thanks.

Oh, that's one of those things

that light anywhere, isn't it?

Uh-huh. It... it has the shield.

Uh, would you like it?

Oh, no, you keep it. I don't smoke.

I really wouldn't have any use for it.

Oh. Well, I, I just wanted you to have it.

Thank you very much.

Well, here comes my bus.

Uh, maybe...

Maybe we'll meet again sometime.

- Well, goodbye. - Goodbye.

And thank you for the lighter.

- Oh, that's alright. - Oh, my bag.

- Alice! - Joe!

Will you...

Look, will you break that date tonight?

- Yes! - Oh.

Oh, look, where will I meet you?

Under the clock at the astor at 7:00.

Under the clock at the astor at 7:00.

Helen: I can't imagine what could have happened to Alice.

Really! She was supposed to be home hours ago.

What do you think could have happened to her, bill?

Oh, I wouldn't worry, only she spoke to me

oh, this isn't like Alice at all.

You get to know a person pretty well

when you live with them, and there's one kid

that's really got her head on her shoulders.

Of course, I always feel she's still a hick

in a big town.

She's only been here three years, you know.

Say, bill, do you think she could have stepped

no. No, I think if she were gonna do that

want to get yourself a coke, bill?

She took a couple of books to the country with her.

Maybe she stopped off at the library to change them.

Oh, but that wouldn't take her three hours.

Besides, what am I thinking of? Today is Sunday.

Well, she must be somewhere, but where?

- Hello, bill. - Who is that? Alice?

My gosh, ai, where have you been?

I thought you were coming right home.

Freddy called up three times.

He's going to call again in a half an hour.

I'm a little late, I guess.

What do you mean, you met a soldier?

I tripped over him at penn station

lost the heel on my shoe, and he helped me...

Ai, you're not trying to tell me

you got picked up by a uniform?

- That is a lighter. - Where did you get it?

He gave it to me.

Guess he just wanted to.

As long as you finally got rid of him.

Well, I didn't exactly get rid of him.

I got a date with him tonight.

Good grief, ai.

I thought you had more sense

than to do a thing like that.

Well, don't you know you're just heading for trouble?

As far as he's concerned, this is just a pickup.

I wish you wouldn't keep saying that.

Don't you think I could tell the difference?

'It's always different.'

Joe's a nice boy.

He's just lonesome, that's all.

- He's never been to New York... - Oh, so it's Joe already.

- Joe what? - Joe...

I know you're old enough to take care of yourself

and I don't want to butt into your affairs

but it just doesn't make sense to pick up a...

To make friends with a stray soldier.

I... I know, they're all swell kids

but a girl has got to look out for herself.

Ai, are you gonna use that little...

No, here, here. You can have it.

Thanks. They leave you in a few days.

And then what have you got?

Oh, I know, it's... it's different

when you meet a serviceman through friends

I'll leave it up to bill. Am I right, bill?

Listen, Alice, I've looked after you

for almost three years.

You've never done anything like this before

and I won't let you do it now.

I just won't let you do it.

He's going to be awfully disappointed.

0h, honey, he won't feel half as bad as you'll feel

after his leave is over and he goes back to camp.

I am right, Alice.

0h, now, you forget this Joe.

Freddy will be phoning in a few minutes.

Freddy's a nice boy.

Anyway, you know his last name.

0h, we've got to go if we want to get there

let's go to that little steakhouse

and remember, don't you weaken.

Bill, we could take the irt, then take...

- Goodbye! - Oh.

0h, hello, Freddy.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Yes, Helen told me you'd called.

Well, I'm almost ready. What time?

- Darling! - Oh, hello, darling.

You're looking mighty cute.

Here's something to top you off.

Oh, it's lovely.

- Here, hold this. - Alright.

Now, how do you like it?

- Oh, Joe! - Alice!

- Am I late? - Oh, no, no, you're not late.

I was just worried about you. I...

Oh, I, here's something for your hair

to top it off.

0h, Joe.

You want me to hold your mirror for you?

I've lived with Helen almost ever since I got here.

We work in the same office.

I have to know all about shipping

and railroads and crates and everything.

Yes, I do. But you take Helen

now, she practically runs the sales department.

Bill says she's practically an executive.

Hm. Uh, who's, uh, bill?

0h, he... he's a friend of Helen's.

Sometimes Freddy and I go out

oh, it's our very best wine, madame.

- Oh, we didn't order this. - No, we...

Compliments to the corporal

and his charming companion from the gentleman.

You, uh, you like it, don't you?

The city and the office and everything?

Oh, I love it.

- I never want it different. - Never?

Uh-uh, never.

Don't you want to get married someday, maybe?

Not for a long time, anyway.

Well, what about this, uh

- Freddy? - Mm-hmm. What about him?

I don't know what you mean.

I don't think I care to answer that.

Well, I was only asking.

My goodness, I hardly know you.

I don't have to answer anybody's questions

about Freddy or anything else.

Well, wait a minute, now, this Freddy

doesn't mean anything to me one way or the other.

Alright, then let's leave him out of this.

Well, that suits me. I was only asking...

I don't know why you had to bring him up at all.

Look, you brought him up. I never even heard of the guy.

Oh, look, I'm sorry if I said anything...

She told me what would happen.

I should have listened to her.

But I suppose I haven't got any sense.

If I had any sense, I'd have listened to her.

It's different when you meet a serviceman

through friends and know who he is.

Then you know who he is.

Only sometimes when a girl dates with a soldier

she isn't thinking only of herself.

She knows he's far away from home, alone

no one to talk to, and...

You've got brown eyes.

Think of all the people in this city, all around us

all the people in the country

all the people in the world

and out of all that just those stars

and you and me down here together.

That's strange, isn't it?

I don't know, I...

It doesn't seem strange anymore.

Alice: I know.

My coming home early from the country.

That was only a little part of it.

Alice: And your being there in the station when I was.

Mm, that was part of it, too.

There were other things.

That's all part of it.

Even those ships in the river.

That's part of a convoy.

That's why I got this leave.

I guess it'll be the last one I'll get.

It's a lot of things, isn't it?

And some don't matter, others do.

This night and being together.

- Yes. - They matter, don't they?

- I don't know. - Alice...

Joe, I don't know.

Almost as quiet as it is out home.

It's never quiet, really.

The city's full of sounds.

We have to go.

Alice, could I see you again tomorrow?

I don't know, Joe.

I don't know whether we ought to see each other again at all.

I thought maybe you'd want to.

Well, I do, but I...

I just can't... can't think right now.

I'm sorry, Joe, please.

The buses stop running after midnight.

Well, couldn't we take a taxi?

Oh, it would be awfully expensive.

Oh, no, that's all...

0h, here comes something.

0h, uh...

Something I can do for you?

I'm sorry, mister

we thought you were a taxi.

Oh, that's alright, Mac. You want a lift?

- A lift? In that? - Driver: Sure, why not?

Well, I don't, I don't know.

0h, there's plenty of room. The whole wagon's empty.

That's awfully nice of you.

Come on, hop in. Hop in.

Here, sit right here.

Come on, sit down.

- You got plenty of room? - Yeah.

Oh, yes. I'm afraid we're crowding you, though.

0h, not at all. Not at all.

You going home from somewheres?

Just had my main meal.

0h, supper, huh?

This is noontime for me.

Man on radio: And here's another request

this time from miss Nellie Greene.

Nellie Greene! That dame again!

0h, ho ho!

Discrimination there. Get a load of what she wants now.

Man on radio: And that's another request for “how am I to know."

Wouldn't she ask for that? How do you like that?

Nothing but pure corn she ever asks for.

That's the second request in two weeks

a miss Nellie Greene private program?

Yeah, you know, for folks that work at night

I had a request in now for three months.

Can I get it? No.

My request is, "that's how I need you.“

do you know it?

I like a dah-dah needs the sunshine I

j' like the flowers need the dew j'

j' like a baby needs his mother dear j“

j' that's how I... ii

it's an old favorite of the wife's and mine.

You sure you got plenty of room?

- Oh, yeah, plenty of room. - It's wonderful.

Driver: That's good.

Hey, have you ever seen the wagons loaded?

- You mean the milk wagons? - Yeah.

If you got time, I'll take you down there.

It's a very interesting sight if you never seen it.

Oh, well that's awfully nice of you

but I think I'd better get home.

- Where do you live? - On the eastside.

Well, I'll take you right back up there.

Well, honestly, Mr...

Henry. Now, look, you get the ride.

I get the company. What's the matter with that?

Well... what do you think, Joe?

Well, I sort of like it here.

Man on radio: Well, here we have a request

"six girls in a pool room."

Ha ha! Now, iwonder what they could be doing there.

Okay, girls, come out from that corner pocket

maybe they didn't get my letter.

Or it could have gotten lost, you know.

They might have played it when you weren't listening.

Yeah, you think so?

I don't know. I listen almost all the time.

Pretty, isn't it?

J' while you cuddle near me I

- what's the matter? - What was that?

J' there's no one here but you if

- well, there it is. - Oh, gosh.

- What do we do now? - Nothing we can do.

Joe: Well, can I help you put the spare on?

No, I don't carry none, I got to get that service car

I got to find a phone.

Oh, there's a, a lunchroom over there.

Oh, that'll do. Come on.

- Won't take very long, will it? - No.

I just call for maintenance man he comes right out.

Drunk man: We got some new blood in here now.

We'll get an entirely new consensus of opinion.

Henry: Order me a cup of coffee, will you?

I have seen the most UN-American

and uncanny conduct in this place tonight

you wouldn't believe it.

I have a few witnesses who would be...

- I'd like some coffee. - Three coffees.

- With cream. Yes. - No, without.

Who would be more than happy to help me straighten this out.

A few more won't hurt, either.

Will understand my entire situation.

Let me explain, oh, I'm sorry, I'll just explain

look, I'm gonna borrow your friend for a minute.

Please, look, pal, give me a chance, will you?

I'll be right with you.

Oh, well, there's a charming man.

Obviously you two are a member of his party.

Would you care to join me in a vermouth cassis

the liquor here is comparatively...

These two, these two young people are with me

look, we don't serve any drinks.

Oh, you don't serve...

Well, why don't you serve any drinks?

- The boss says the license... - A license!

Well, that is really the height

of something or other.

I have to have a license to drink a drink?

Why, this city isn't fit to live.

I mean, let's face it, after all

this country is going to the dogs.

Think you could run it any better?

You are without a doubt the most utterly

exquisite creature it has ever been my pleasure

let me take you out of all this.

I mean, let's cease this useless sham.

Let's allow our emotions full reign, shall we?

I mean, after all...

You... you are a man and I am a woman.

Hey, wait a minute.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Who made that crack about a dog?

- Did you get him, ai? - Yeah, he's on his way.

Hey, chum! Hey! Hey! Hey, who is to the dogs?

- Yeah, hello. - Huh-huh.

Well, wait a minute, Jack, just put down that coffee a minute.

Come here. I want to... It won't take a minute, lady.

- What's the matter? - Look, just a minute.

One thing, what's this crack about dogs?

What's the matter with dogs? Dogs is my best friend!

What are you picking on me for?

Dogs is, everybody is born free and equal...

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Americanism, that's UN-American.

Oh, hi, it's a pleasure

to meet a member of the armed forces.

You work for uncle Sam, but this civilian...

This UN-American, most UN-American, believe me...

Since bunker hill, the constitution of

the United States, and the bill of rights!

Now, wait a minute. I never...

Man on radio: "That's how I need you“ for my old pal ai Henry.

- My request! - Oh, your request.

Well, I got a request, too. I got a request, too.

This country has got to expand!

- Ai! - Wait a minute.

Wait, I haven't finished, lady.

Listen, the fact remains, the fact remains...

The monitor and the merrimac...

Joe: You alright?

- What a shame. - Oh, hey, ai.

- Is that all? - Hey, ai.

Hey, ai, forgive me, will you? I...

Hey, ai, I didn't mean it.

That's... that uncontrollable me.

That's the kind of stuff that's really...

Really soul stirring. You get that kind of...

Ah, that music is what really moves me.

Little drink, will you, chum?

Hey... hey. Listen, listen.

If I could bring it from my heart

one song like that, you could take the rest of it and keep it.

One song.

Hey, what do you do, ai...

That's the third one you popped in a month.

- How do you feel? - Oh, pretty good.

That guy, he got me in the wind, you know?

Yeah. How's the eye?

- The eye's alright. - Let's see.

0h, ai...

Hey, well, how much longer you gonna be?

Good as new, right now.

- Oh! Come on. - Oh!

I'm alright. I'm alright.

No, no. I'm alright.

- There we are. - Good.

Joe, have you got a handkerchief?

- Yeah. - Give it to me, will you?

- I'm alright. - Think I could get some water?

- Water? - No, never mind. Here.

Oh, that feels good.

- Better? - Yeah, it was kind of hot.

Don't you think we better get you home, ai?

Oh, no, I got the milk to deliver.

Well, why don't you rest for a while, then, a!

While he's working on that?

I'll see how he's coming along.

- Alright. - Here, put your feet up.

- Is everything alright? - All finished now, bub.

- Will you sign this? - Yeah.

Thank you.

Alright, thanks. Alice: Joe.

Look, I don't think we better leave him.

He's certainly in no condition to drive.

He's gonna need some help.

Well, I... I guess we better stay with him

Joe, there must be a list around here somewhere.

Oh, here's something.

- What? - It's his route book.

Oh, it's a list of addresses.

Do you think you could find these places?

- Sure. - Where's the first one?

- Uh, about three blocks south. - Three blocks south.

I don't know whether I can work this thing or not.

Look, turn to the right at the first corner.

Yeah, alright, uh...

- Well, here we go. - Here we go.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

- Hey. - Oh, hello, sheffield!

- Hey! - How are you?

You through for the night, too?

- Yes! - Goodnight.

The patient's sitting up, huh?

Well, you two are born milkmen.

- How's the eye, ai? - Oh, it's a little hot.

Oh, we'll get you home right away.

Oh, no, no. You don't have to do that.

Oh, sure we will.

You want to lie down, rest, and take it easy.

Well, if you insist.

- Sleepy? Oh, sure you are. - A little.

Well, now what do I do? Just stay on the same street?

- Mm-hmm. - Alright.

There's a lot of light in the sky.

Back home I used to see the dawn come up sometimes.

Me, too. Up over the Indiana fields.

You know, it's still night there.

Morning comes here first, doesn't it?

And then, before that, out in the sea...

And before that, it's, out...

- Joe... - Hmm?

Where are they sending you, do you know?

.\

That's a long ways away.

- Alice? - Hmm?

Do you like me a little bit?

Joe, I'm sorry, I'm just so sleepy.

Why don't you try to get some sleep, then?

- Really? - Mm-hmm.

J' like the flowers need the dew j'

I like a baby needs its mother I!“

- that you, ai? - Uh-huh.

Did you hear? They played our song.

Say, he don't sing it half as well as you do.

This is a couple of friends of mine. This is Alice

and this is Joe, this is Mrs. Ai Henry.

- How do you do? - I'm pleased to meet you.

Well, how was the run today...

Oh, it was just a drunk. He didn't mean it.

What happened to the other fella?

- Well, he... - Is he dead?

No, of course he ain't dead. He's alright.

Well, I guess he's alright by now.

Let me tell you what these kids did.

- What? - Well, I passed out...

- When the slot machine hit me... - What?

But, oh, no, it was nothing.

They delivered all of the milk.

- They did? - Every drop.

Well, I think that was mighty nice of them.

Well, I bet you're just starved by now if you did that.

Oh, you mustn't go to any trouble.

It isn't any trouble. I got everything all ready.

I tell you, I know you milkmen and your appetites.

You know, for a little, skinny fella...

- Sit down, sit down. - He eats more than most people.

I always say...

You know, I spend more than half my life cooking.

She can mix you up the finest glass of ice water

you ever drank, and that's her limit.

Oh, ha-ha-ha. Come on, dear.

I bet you'd like to wash up. Ha ha! You!

Twenty-two years!

Makes the best corn cakes you ever ate.

Why don't you take your coat off, Joe?

- Oh, this is fine, ai. - Oh, don't stand on ceremony.

- Liberty hall here. - My flower's all wilted.

- Oh. - Can I help you?

- Yeah, if you will, dearie. - Alright.

About half of them now, I guess.

Now, watch yourself, they're hot.

- Ai? One egg or two? - Yeah? One.

What's the matter? Don't you feel good?

- One at a time. - Ha-ha-ha.

Bring the coffee, will you, too, dear?

- Alright. - There you are.

And as pretty as a bride and groom.

You folks married?

Oh, no.

Well, there's lots of young folks

are getting married these days.

Yeah, a lot of guys in my camp are getting married.

Uh-huh, I suppose, here, butter one

of these while it's hot, will you?

I suppose they're young, and they don't know

what's gonna happen to them next.

Sure! If two people want to get married

leave them do it, I say.

Well, I think you have to know somebody

a long time before you get married.

I mean, you don't want to do something

as serious as that just in a minute.

Well, now, look, wait a minute

I think you can find out just as much about somebody

in a minute as you can by knowing a whole lifetime.

Know what she was doing when I first seen her?

Now, ai, now that, now, then...

Flipping butter cakes in Charles' window.

- No, really? - Hah-ha-ha-ha.

And the minute I laid eyes on her...

Yeah. And it took him three weeks

to get up his courage to come in!

Ha-ha. Then he had to bring his uncle with him!

It wasn't my uncle, it was my cousin.

Oh, well...

Yeah. My cousin, Michael Henry.

He's clerk of the court for judge Forbes.

I was pretty sure of myself

but I thought you know, bringing the clerk of the court in...

I don't know, though.

I don't think it's fair to the girl...

A soldier getting married.

She doesn't know what condition

he's going to come back in.

He may not even come back at all.

Look, Joe...

If people thought about all the things

that could happen, they'd never do anything.

Ai: Ain't I right, em?

Well, I think if a girl and boy love each other

all the talk in the world ain't gonna stop them.

Mrs. Ai: Never has yet.

- What's the matter? - Company first. Company first.

Well, look, they got some, ain't they?

Yeah, but they delivered the milk, didn't they?

They delivered the milk, they can reach.

- They still got arms. - That's just like his uncle.

It wasn't my uncle, it was my cousin.

Well, your uncle, your cousin, what difference...

It's Michael that's the one that can eat.

But I never saw a kid eat...

I never saw such a place in my life

to try and get something to eat.

- Well, take it, take it! - Alright.

- Ha-ha! - Thank you. Thank you.

We go this way to the subway.

What are you thinking about?

Ai Henry and his wife.

I was thinking about what he said

about how you can learn so much about a person

in just a little while.

Yes, I guess so.

Then it wouldn't really make so much difference

how long a person knew another person, would it?

No, it wouldn't, I guess.

What are you thinking about?

About a soldier not marrying because...

He doesn't know what condition he'd come back in.

Well, I think if two people are really in love...

That wouldn't make any difference.

Of course, they don't see the problems.

Mr. and Mrs. Henry, I mean.

Joe, I don't want to leave you today.

Well, then why do it?

Why can't we have this one last day together?

I... I suppose I could tell them at the office...

- I... I could find some excuse. - Oh, that would be...

Oh, no, we have to change here.

I have to go up to the office and show them where some things

are in my desk. You wait for me, and I'll come as soon as I can.

- Alright, I'll wait. - Alright.

Conductor: Let them off, please. Let them off.

Alright, step lively, everybody.

All the way in.

Step lively, everybody. All the way in.

Step lively. All the way in.

Step lively, folks. All the way in.

Hey, wait a minute! I got to get on there!

- Not now, buddy. Next train. - Hey!

Conductor: Get back there, buddy! Do you want to get hurt?

What's the next station, mister?

.\

Oh, could you tell me what the next station is?

The next station? Well, let me see.

Officer, could you tell me what the next station is?

Did you see a girl get off the train a little while ago?

Well, I see a thousand girls get off trains, fella.

Is this the next stop after 42nd street?

The next express stop, yes.

Express...

Well, what's the next local stop after?

- 33rd. - Well, how do I get there?

Uh, take the stairway through the platform and go across.

Man on radio: These are the actual statistics.

There are five boroughs in New York

with a total population of 7,454,995.

Bronx, 1,394,711.

Making a grand total of 7,454,995.

I... I'm looking for a soldier.

My friend. We got separated in the subway.

- Joe. - Joe? Joe what?

Well, what outfit is he with?

He's... with the army.

Ha. That's a big help.

- Are you joking? - Oh, no, please, I...

We only just met yesterday, and...

I don't know it didn't seem to make any difference

oh, didn't make any difference.

I... I know it sounds funny

but... but the night went so fast

and... and I got sleepy.

And then we lost each other this morning

and he's only got today.

I don't see how I can help you, young lady.

And look, between you and me

I don't think I'd go around telling that story, either.

I've got to find him. I...

What am I going to do?

Say, would there be any place particular

where you went together where she might

go back and wait for you?

The clock at the astor hotel! I had a date with her last night!

Well, that's very likely where she is right this minute.

- Looking for you. - Do you think so?

I wouldn't be at all surprised now.

- Thanks a lot, officers! - Okay, son.

What's the next train for aberdeen, Maryland?

That's at 10:51. You can make it easy.

- Going back to camp? - Yeah.

- Track fourteen. - Thank you.

Help you, young man?

- Maybery. Joe... - Maybery.

Joe, I didn't know where to find you.

I didn't think I'd ever find you again.

Oh, look, Alice. We can't wait.

We mustn't. It wouldn't be right.

- Oh, Joe, are you sure? - We'll never be more sure.

Don't you see? We might never have found one another again.

- No, don't say that. - I've got to say it.

Look, please... Please, will you marry me?

Woman on P.A.: Jackson and Smith. Jackson and Smith.

Dosovich and Brady. Dosovich and Brady.

Got your blood test papers?

Everyone got your blood test papers?

Yes, thank you. Got your blood test papers, sir?

Got your blood test papers?

Woman 1: Is that what you mean?

Well, that's right. That's right.

Got your blood test papers?

Please, now, please. Everyone got their blood test papers?

Mister, what's that about blood test papers?

According to the laws of the state of New York

applicants for a marriage license

must have a blood test certificate.

We didn't know anything about a blood test!

- Where do we get one? - Thirty-nine, whitehall street.

Be quiet! Thirty-nine...

Thirty-nine, whitehall street. Two subway stops downtown.

You can't miss it. Write it down, Irving.

Well, how late are you open here?

Come back here with your papers and I'll get you your license.

You can be married at the same time.

Marriage clerk: Everybody got their blood test papers here?

Everybody got it here? Thank you. Thank you.

Room 318, third floor. You got a pass?

No. We were told this was the place to go.

Can't go upstairs without a pass.

Okay, well, where do I get a pass?

Lieutenant burdrow, second floor.

Hey, where are you going?

Didn't I tell you you had to have a pass?

You told us we had to see the lieutenant.

I said you couldn't go up without a pass.

Well, then how can we...

Who does he think he is, Hitler?

Oh, I wish he was, just once.

Oh, can't... can't we wait over there somewhere?

.\

Man 5: Hey, you!

You, soldier! What's yours?

Well, we came to get a blood test.

Why didn't you say so, then?

Bring the pass back when you come down.

Blood test. Okay, wait over there, corporal.

- Will it take long, sir? - Nope.

We'll get the results in the morning.

Oh, no... we've got to have it now!

We only have a few hours.

We're piled up here. Twenty-four hours will do it.

Did you get fixed up alright?

- No. - What's the matter?

Wasn't anyone there to take care of you?

Well, we... couldn't get the papers till tomorrow morning.

My leave's up, and we wanted to get it by 4:00 this afternoon.

Why don't you go to a private laboratory?

Well, you could go to one of the approved

private laboratories. Put the rush on them.

You'll get the results in a couple of hours.

Well, could we make it if we got there right away?

Sure. I got a list here somewhere.

.\

Oh, Joe, make him hurry.

Yeah, here it is.

The I&n public health service laboratory

631. Thank you very much!

Allen and maybery. Allen and maybery.

Not valid for three days.

Sorry, nothing we can do. Three day wait.

Ajudge of the supreme court may...

Upon submission of a proper petition...

Issue a waiver of the time clause

permitting the parties to be married at once.

Uh, is the judge in? We got to get a...

Uh, could you get us a waiver for this?

Waiver? Oh, I'm sorry. But you're too late, folks.

- Too late? - Yes. It's tough luck.

Oh, no!

Um, you're ai Henry's cousin, aren't you?

Well, do you know ai?

Oh, he sent us to you. He told us you'd help us.

Oh, why didn't you tell me?

Wait a minute. Maybe I can catch the judge.

- Oh, how is al? - Oh, he's fine.

- She's fine, too. - Emily...

Don't you think you'd better hurry?

Oh, that's alright. Just let me have your papers.

Yeah. Pull up some chairs. Make yourself comfortable.

I... I won't be very long.

I don't know. Mrs. Henry, I guess.

Oh, Joe, look at the time.

Well, folks, here we are.

- It's all fixed. - Thank you!

Be sure and tell a! That I said

I'll be dropping in on him one day...

Is there time to catch the 4:37? Down!

Well, where did he go? It isn't 4 o'clock yet.

Just left. Don't know if he's coming back.

Joe, that was the man we just passed!

I think you can catch him if we hurry.

- Please, mister! - What is it?

- We want to get married. - Too late, Mac.

But, mister, it isn't 4 o'clock yet.

Well, I just got time to catch my train.

Oh, we tried so hard.

Okay, come along, but you got to hurry, though.

Irving, look me up another train.

Turn that thing off.

Don't you see there's a wedding going on?

What do you think this is, a factory?

Will you step over here, please?

Will you act as a witness, please? Come down.

Perhaps you'd better step over there.

No, no, no, no.

Stand over there, behind them, please.

Will you change places, please?

The young lady should be on the left.

Let me have your certificate.

This is a serious and solemn step which you here undertake.

Do either of you know of any reason

why you both should not be iegallyjoined in marriage

or there be anyone present who can show just cause

why these parties should not be legally joined together

let him now speak or hereafter hold his peace.

Take this woman as your lawfully wedded wife

do you promise to love, honor...

As long as you both shall live?

Well, say, "I do."

Uh, I... I do.

Take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband...

Prosperity and adversity,

for better or worse as long as you both shall live?

Place the ring upon the third finger

I haven't got a ring.

Under the law, it is not necessary to have a ring.

Whereas you've both consented in wedlock

and have acknowledged it before this company

I do, by virtue of the authority vested in me

by the laws of the state of New York

may god bless your union.

Here, you take this.

Fine. That's Sunday, stupid!

- Here you are. - Thank you.

- Good luck. - Thank you.

I didn't have any flowers.

.\

- We didn't have time. - We rushed so.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

You're not eating your soup.

I don't feel very hungry.

It isn't very good soup, I guess.

I wonder what Helen's going to say when I tell her.

I guess she'll be surprised, alright.

I'm going to have to tell aunt Martha, too.

Uh, I have to tell my folks.

Uh, are your mother and father living?

Are yours?

Do you suppose...

Maybe I should write to your folks, maybe?

Oh, I suppose so.

I suppose I should write to yours.

Uh, would you like to see our house out home?

- Uh, that one's me. - Oh.

Yeah. And that one there is... is mother.

Do you suppose she'll like me?

Sure, she will.

I should say so.

When does your train go, Joe?

Well, I don't have to be back in camp

I, um...

I guess you're not very glad you married me...

Are you, Alice?

Oh, I'm sorry, Joe.

I... I guess I...

I... I don't feel very married.

Oh, I know. I... I don't blame you.

It... it wasn't your fault.

It was... it's just...

Oh, oh, it was...

Ugly.

- I know. I know. - It was, it didn't...

I know, I know. It's alright, darling.

Woman 2: Whoo!

Goodbye, darling! Goodbye!

Woman 3: Goodbye, my dear!

It's the marriage service.

"Dearly beloved...

We are gathered together here in the sight of god...

And in the face of this company...

To join together this man and this woman

in holy matrimony...

Which is an honorable estate...

And, therefore, is not by any...

To be entered into unadvisedly or lightly

but reverently, discreetly, advisedly, soberly

Wilt thou have this woman to thy wedded wife?

Comfort her in sickness and in health

and forsaking all others keep thee only unto her

as long as ye both shall live?"

"I take thee, Alice, to my wedded wife

to have and to hold from this day forward

for better and for worse for richer or for poorer

Till death do us part.“

"Our father who art in heaven...“

both: "Hallowed be thy name.“

"thy kingdom come, thy will be done..."

Oh, Joe...

I love you.

I'll love you till the day I die.

Ah, ah, ah, ah!

Uh, try...

Will you... will you try not to think about anything?

Darling, you're coming back.

Do you want me to tell you how I know?

Two days ago, you came to this city

and you didn't know anyone.

You didn't know me, and I didn't know you.

And we both know that that was meant to be.

So, don't you see

who... whoever makes the arrangements for people

is doing pretty well for us.

Man 6: Come on, fellas! Let's go!

Are you sure you can't send me your laundry?

Oh, mom, don't worry about those things.

Don't worry, dear. I will. Just be waiting for me.

Are you sure that you've got everything straight?

The insurance on the car runs out the seventeenth.

You have to see Henry about that.

Bye, son. Now, you take good care of your mother.

Say bye, Alan. Say goodbye to your father.

- Goodbye, darling. I love you. - I'll be alright.

- You just take it easy. - God bless you!

Oh, god bless you!

I hope you have a good trip, dear.

Goodbye, darling. Take good care of yourself.

- Don't forget to write. - I won't.

I love you!

- See you soon. - See you soon.
