00:01:56Michael, isn't it much nicer here than all that shouting and noise we've just left?
00:02:03Yeah, it's about as cheerful as a morgue.
00:02:06Oh, you're not shut up in a smelly, noisy old restaurant all day or all night.
00:02:10You're out in your truck, riding around, forever seeing the changing panorama of the country and the city.
00:02:16What's that? I've been driving a truck for ten years. I ain't never seen nothing like what you're talking about.
00:02:22Michael, sometimes I think you're so dumb that you have to take off your shoes to count up to twenty.
00:02:28Huh?
00:02:29Skip it.
00:02:31Oh, how do you do, Mr. O'Reilly?
00:02:35Why don't you come out with me like this? You know, steady on me.
00:02:38And just as soon as you say the word, we can get hooked up.
00:02:44You know, Mike, it'd never work out. I'd be a sad disappointment.
00:02:49Don't be silly. You've got it all over them with the biscuits.
00:02:54I don't know about that. They're contented. I'm not.
00:02:59I want to get somewhere and be somebody.
00:03:02Well, if you want to be somebody, why don't you be Mrs. Michael O'Reilly?
00:03:08No, you don't understand, Mike. I'm afraid of things I don't understand myself.
00:03:14Gee, but you're a funny skirt.
00:03:19Do you tip waiters in this joint?
00:03:21Why, certainly, sir.
00:03:22Well, I've been waiting ten minutes. How about it?
00:03:29Come on, you're right, Mary.
00:03:34Hey, waiter!
00:03:35Yes, sir.
00:03:36What kind of swill is this?
00:03:39Is there something wrong, sir?
00:03:40There hasn't been any other complaints.
00:03:41Yeah, but I'm not one of them guys that's been drinking home brew for the past ten years.
00:03:45Mike!
00:03:46I know beer!
00:03:48Well, shall I take it back and bring you some other kind?
00:03:50No! You drink it!
00:04:10Mike!
00:04:22A stable here, sir.
00:04:23Nothin' to it. I want one of Mary's tables.
00:04:27Hiya, Jess.
00:04:29Billy, Mike's just come in. Will you wait on him for me?
00:04:32Sure. His tip's as good as any others.
00:04:39Your order, please.
00:04:42What are you doing here? Ain't this Mary's table?
00:04:44No. This table happens to belong to the Lions' restaurant.
00:04:47Oh, I see.
00:04:49Well, if you don't mind, I'd like to have a word with you, sir.
00:04:52Sure.
00:04:53Ain't this Mary's table?
00:04:54No. This table happens to belong to the Lions' restaurant.
00:04:57Oh, smart cracker, huh?
00:05:00Listen, I'm tired of gettin' a run around here.
00:05:02This is Mary's table, and I'm stayin' here till she comes.
00:05:05Oh, come on, Mike. Snap out of it.
00:05:07What's your order?
00:05:08Nothin' to you.
00:05:12Hey, Mary! Come here!
00:05:18What's the idea of always tryin' to ditch me?
00:05:20I was busy.
00:05:22Oh, busy, huh? What about my date?
00:05:25You made the date. I didn't. I really have to go, Mike.
00:05:28You come back here.
00:05:33What's the trouble, sir?
00:05:34The trouble is that skoid. She's too high hat for her own good.
00:05:38Was she rude to you?
00:05:39I'll take his order, Mr. Avery. Mike, what do you want?
00:05:42I want Mary. Beat it.
00:05:45What's the matter with me? Ain't I snooty enough for ya?
00:05:49Shh, Mike.
00:05:50Don't shush me.
00:05:51You don't think I'm scared of that mug up there, do ya?
00:05:53You don't have to yell at me. My hearing's all right.
00:05:56You'll have to get out of here, or I'll put you out.
00:05:58Go on. Put me out.
00:06:00Will you please leave quietly?
00:06:03Shut up!
00:06:04Go on. Put me out.
00:06:06Hey!
00:06:07Lay off me, you guys.
00:06:17Come here.
00:06:21You're the cause of all this commotion.
00:06:23I'm tired of you bringing your personal affairs in here.
00:06:26But, Mr. Avery, I tried to keep away from him.
00:06:28Oh, you did? Well, you're through.
00:06:30Go to the cashier and get your paycheck.
00:06:32That's okay with me.
00:06:33I'm sick and tired of carrying your trays around for you anyhow.
00:06:50Come on.
00:07:15Just a minute, young lady.
00:07:17I wouldn't do that if I were you.
00:07:19I would if I were me, but I wouldn't if I were you.
00:07:22It's a funny coincidence, isn't it, our choosing the same bridge?
00:07:27Why? Were you going to...
00:07:30Weren't you?
00:07:32Not exactly.
00:07:34You see, I've just lost my job, and now I've just lost my paycheck.
00:07:38I don't know when I'm going to get another.
00:07:40Well, I just lost a fortune, and I don't know when I'm going to get another.
00:07:44That's funny, isn't it?
00:07:46But you look like a person who has everything one could want.
00:07:49Who had everything would be more correct.
00:07:52Oh, I'm sorry.
00:07:54And now you want to resort to this?
00:07:58Well, you're not going to.
00:08:00I suppose you climbed up on the rail to get a better view, huh?
00:08:04Yes, that's right.
00:08:06Yeah, I see.
00:08:08Of course, I'm not in a position to dissuade you, mind you.
00:08:12But it does seem to me you're very young for that sort of thing.
00:08:17Listen, I'm going to take you home so you can get yourself straightened out.
00:08:21To your house?
00:08:22No, yours.
00:08:24Just a minute, please.
00:08:26It has taken me all day to reach this point, and I'm certainly not going to turn back now.
00:08:31Yes, you are.
00:08:34I'd have a good reason, but you haven't.
00:08:37I'm tired of dirty dishes and ugliness, and no chance of getting away from it.
00:08:42I used to dream of someday having nice things and being happy.
00:08:46But I know now I was just kidding myself.
00:08:48Things will never be any different from me, and it just...
00:08:52Just isn't worth it, huh? Is that it?
00:08:56I see.
00:08:58It's funny, isn't it?
00:09:00You've had nothing, and I've had about everything, and here we are.
00:09:07I suppose the old-fashioned custom of ladies first would apply,
00:09:11or do you think it would be chummier if we went over together, huh?
00:09:15I think that would be nice, sir.
00:09:17But wouldn't it be a breach of etiquette without a proper introduction?
00:09:20Oh, I beg your pardon.
00:09:23My name is Alden, Kenneth Alden.
00:09:27Not the Kenneth Alden.
00:09:30How do you do? I'm Mary Beekman.
00:09:33I'm charmed, I assure you.
00:09:35Not the Greenwich Beekmans.
00:09:37No, just the telephone book Beekmans.
00:09:40Oh, well, I see.
00:09:43Then shall I...
00:09:45That is, may I have the pleasure of the next plunge?
00:09:51Just a minute.
00:09:52Has it occurred to you that there might be some other way of...
00:09:56I suppose this is rather crude as wet.
00:09:59Do you have a car?
00:10:01Yes, I have a car up there somewhere.
00:10:03Why?
00:10:04Well, I've an idea.
00:10:06So have I. Let's have a drink.
00:10:15Well, here we are.
00:10:17Now, you make yourself comfortable,
00:10:20and I'll go and see if the butler has left us anything to drink, huh?
00:11:04Okay.
00:11:35There. I found some.
00:11:38See what a useful citizen I am?
00:11:43What's the matter? Did you see a ghost?
00:11:45Did you actually entertain royalty?
00:11:48Oh, you've been taking inventory, huh?
00:11:51But did you?
00:11:52Oh, I suppose so.
00:11:54I'm afraid that I found them more entertaining than they found me.
00:11:57And you wanted to give up all that?
00:11:59Well, not exactly.
00:12:01And you wanted to give up all that?
00:12:03Well, not exactly.
00:12:04Wanted to? Probably will have to.
00:12:07You must have been very famous.
00:12:09Oh, I wouldn't say that.
00:12:11You'll notice that it was always my guests
00:12:13or my horses or my boats they were riding about.
00:12:16They never wrote about me.
00:12:18Once or twice they did.
00:12:20When I went to Africa,
00:12:22they said it was to hunt big game,
00:12:25but it was really to get away from Clarissa.
00:12:28Clarissa?
00:12:31Yes.
00:12:32The girl I was in love with once.
00:12:37Oh, this is a beautiful room.
00:12:39Yeah, I'm going to miss it too.
00:12:44Looking for something in particular?
00:12:46No, I've just been dying to read books like these.
00:12:49Yeah, some of them nearly killed me when I read them too.
00:12:53So, you haven't completely lost your sense of humor, huh?
00:12:56That's something.
00:12:58Oh, it does seem a shame to lose such a grand home, though.
00:13:01Yeah, I'm afraid it can be helped.
00:13:03I think it can.
00:13:05Now, never mind my problem.
00:13:07We'll solve yours.
00:13:08Do you still want to jump off the bridge
00:13:10or have you got some other plan?
00:13:12I have a confession to make.
00:13:14I didn't want to jump off the bridge.
00:13:15I was only after my paycheck that blew out of my purse.
00:13:18What?
00:13:20Well, I was under the distinct impression
00:13:22you were going to jump off the bridge.
00:13:24For a while there, I thought I was a hero.
00:13:27But you were going to, weren't you?
00:13:29Me? No.
00:13:31I was only trying to talk you out of it.
00:13:33I don't want anything to do with water.
00:13:35Which gives me an idea.
00:13:37As the governor of North Carolina said
00:13:39to the governor of South Carolina.
00:13:48You know, I've never been in a home like this before.
00:13:51I used to pretend I lived in one and had a husband.
00:13:54Sort of like you.
00:13:56Only young, of course.
00:13:58Young? Well, can I help it if I worry?
00:14:01I suppose I pretended so long
00:14:03that I really thought it would happen.
00:14:05Now, sitting here like this, it almost seems as though it had.
00:14:09Drink?
00:14:10No, thanks.
00:14:12What a pity you had to lose all your money.
00:14:15Yes, and it's a pity that I'm somewhat beyond
00:14:17the Prince Charming age
00:14:19and that I have a peculiar aversion to marriage.
00:14:23I've got it.
00:14:25You think I'm pretty?
00:14:27Well, I'd say charming.
00:14:29Thanks. I've always thought so, too.
00:14:31Then that makes it unanimous.
00:14:33You see, I've had to be.
00:14:35I don't quite understand.
00:14:37Well, I've tried to be as beautiful and charming
00:14:39as my heroines.
00:14:41Your heroines? Well, who are they?
00:14:43Will you promise not to laugh at me if I tell you?
00:14:46All right.
00:14:48First it was Nell Gwynn and then it was Helen of Troy
00:14:51and after that it was Mary Antoinette.
00:14:54You know Minnie Mouse?
00:14:56I don't blame you.
00:14:58My landlady used to think I was cuckoo, too.
00:15:00The time when I bought the old French bed for five dollars.
00:15:02That was when I went to Madame Dewberry.
00:15:04Well, you evidently didn't choose your prototypes
00:15:06for their morals.
00:15:08Quite the opposite. I did.
00:15:10You're a most astonishing young lady.
00:15:12You ain't heard nothing yet.
00:15:14Really?
00:15:16How much money have you got left?
00:15:18Oh, I don't know. We'll see.
00:15:20About...
00:15:22No, I don't mean that kind of money.
00:15:24I mean big money.
00:15:26Oh, big money. You'll have to take that up with my creditors.
00:15:28Well, how about all this?
00:15:30House and furniture, I mean.
00:15:32Mortgaged up to the hilt.
00:15:34Not so good.
00:15:36How about the car? Is that attached?
00:15:38Not yet.
00:15:40Good. Say, we're going places.
00:15:42Which reminds me, I haven't eaten tonight.
00:15:44Would there be anything in the icebox that isn't mortgaged?
00:15:46Well, I suppose the servants have been eating regularly.
00:15:49Shall I see?
00:15:51Which way is it?
00:15:53This way. And suppose you tell me that brilliant scheme of yours.
00:15:59Hmm, there's lots of goodies here.
00:16:01I knew when I met you tonight
00:16:03that you'd come in handy.
00:16:05Oh, that's very kind of you.
00:16:07But I couldn't figure out how until a minute ago.
00:16:09I suppose you know everyone in the social register, don't you?
00:16:11Well, everyone worth knowing.
00:16:13Of course, that eliminates most of them.
00:16:15Where do you want me to put this stuff?
00:16:17On the table there.
00:16:27Where would your friends be now?
00:16:29The richest ones, I mean.
00:16:31Oh, Newport, Bar Harbor, Narragansett, Santa Barbara,
00:16:33all the watering places. Why?
00:16:35Wipe the stove, will you?
00:16:41Why do you want to know about my friends?
00:16:43Because we're going where we can soak the rich.
00:16:45Oh, we are?
00:16:47Well, that's very charming.
00:16:49Take your hat off and stay a while.
00:16:51Sure.
00:16:53That's nice of you.
00:16:55I've saved enough to get us started.
00:16:57Oh, you have?
00:16:59My dear child, you couldn't possibly have saved enough
00:17:01to pay for one day in a place like,
00:17:03say, the Clifton?
00:17:05Put on a pan with some butter, will you?
00:17:11I said I've enough to get us started.
00:17:13Say, can you cut bread?
00:17:15Yes, I can heat water, too.
00:17:19What are you trying to do? Make a cook or a waiter
00:17:21out of me for the benefit of my own friends?
00:17:23Don't be silly. I'm trying to make French toast
00:17:25and recover your fortune at the same time.
00:17:27I see.
00:17:29I'll buy some clothes. The rest is up to you.
00:17:31The rest is up to me? What are you talking about?
00:17:33You're going to, uh,
00:17:35where did you say it was, the Clifton?
00:17:37Well, so am I.
00:17:39There we shall meet very casually,
00:17:41and you'll remember me having known my father.
00:17:43Your father was not by any chance a promoter,
00:17:45was he?
00:17:47Stop. Now, really, this is serious.
00:17:49You'll know
00:17:51all about me and introduce me to the wealthiest
00:17:53of your friends, and I'll bet you dollars
00:17:55to donuts that I'll marry millions within a month.
00:17:57Of course, you'll get the usual 20%.
00:18:01Well, of all the harebrained
00:18:03schemes.
00:18:05And if you don't marry millions, what then?
00:18:07Let's not even mention that.
00:18:09Oh, let's be sensible
00:18:11now. You don't suppose I could borrow money
00:18:13for such a ridiculous idea, do you?
00:18:15No, I don't think you should borrow.
00:18:17I've thought of that.
00:18:19But with a sure thing like this,
00:18:21how about selling shares
00:18:23to your friends, I mean?
00:18:25Shares?
00:18:27Shades of P.T. Barnum.
00:18:29Sure. We'll incorporate
00:18:31and you sell the stock.
00:18:33In what? In me.
00:18:35Limited liability, of course.
00:18:37Where you're concerned, the liability is
00:18:39absolutely unlimited.
00:18:41The greater the risk, the greater the profit.
00:18:43Say, remember that. That's a good line when you're
00:18:45selling the stock.
00:18:47Again, I ask, what stock?
00:18:49Don't you understand yet?
00:18:51It's purely a business proposition.
00:18:53We need cash for promotion
00:18:55expenses. And there's no reason why the men
00:18:57who are going to have a chance to marry me shouldn't
00:18:59put up the money.
00:19:01No reason at all, except the men themselves.
00:19:03Where are the cuffs?
00:19:05I don't know. Over there, I guess.
00:19:07Don't tell the prospective victims what they're financing, though.
00:19:09You might say it's, um,
00:19:11a beauty preparation.
00:19:13Oh, now it's a beauty preparation.
00:19:15Yeah, isn't it? I have to be prepared.
00:19:17And a few subscribers at, say, a thousand dollars each
00:19:19would just about do it.
00:19:21Well, maybe Barnum was right.
00:19:23Is it a go?
00:19:25I should say not. You'd better concentrate on cooking.
00:19:33Oh!
00:19:37Oh, and I was so hungry.
00:19:41What else can you cook?
00:19:53Yes, she looks all right, Ken.
00:19:55But you're taking an awful chance.
00:19:57I don't think so.
00:19:59Where is she now?
00:20:01She's under the tutelage of a Miss Milgram
00:20:03who will see that her deportment is perfect.
00:20:05Her clothes, of course, will be correct.
00:20:07And luckily, she doesn't smoke or drink,
00:20:09thanks to one of her heroines, Becky Sharp, or somebody.
00:20:13She must be an amusing kid.
00:20:15And undoubtedly, she has a terrible past before her.
00:20:19But I thought you had more sense.
00:20:21Oh, I don't expect it to work, but it is an unusual adventure,
00:20:23and it does give the young lady an opportunity.
00:20:25Oh, stranger, things have happened.
00:20:29It seems a devious way of making money.
00:20:31Of course she'll insist on a settlement of some sort
00:20:33before a wedding.
00:20:35Of course.
00:20:37I don't expect to make any money out of this, you know.
00:20:39Lucky you, Ken.
00:20:41Why don't you marry Clarissa Stanhope
00:20:43and stop all this nonsense?
00:20:45Everyone expected you to,
00:20:47and she is more than even you could spend.
00:20:49Well, if I wouldn't marry Clarissa when I was rich,
00:20:51I certainly shouldn't ask her to marry me now that I'm broke.
00:20:55Well, I wish you luck.
00:20:57Oh, Ken!
00:20:59Mary, I thought I told you
00:21:01not to be seen coming in here.
00:21:03We weren't.
00:21:05We slipped in the back way.
00:21:07As the legal advisor and possible bail bondsman,
00:21:09I demand an introduction.
00:21:11Miss Bigman, may I present my attorney, Mr. Newman?
00:21:13If I didn't consider the whole proceeding
00:21:15most dishonorable,
00:21:17I would be inclined to stake you
00:21:19with my own money.
00:21:21What's the matter?
00:21:23I didn't believe there really existed an honest lawyer.
00:21:25Oh, I say now.
00:21:27Well, now will you be good?
00:21:29At least if I can't be good,
00:21:31I'll be more careful with you.
00:21:33Isn't this the swankiest outfit?
00:21:35It's charming.
00:21:37But what about your deportment and so forth?
00:21:39And where is Miss Milgram? I thought she was with you.
00:21:41Oh, I thought she was here.
00:21:43Miss Milgram!
00:21:45Oh, there you are, Miss Milgram.
00:21:47Come right in.
00:21:49I'd like you to meet my attorney, Mr. Newman.
00:21:51He knows all about us.
00:21:53I'm sure you have a very apt pupil, Miss Milgram.
00:21:55He knows more ladies than anyone she'll meet in Newport.
00:21:57Phew!
00:21:59What a slam at our aristocracy!
00:22:01Well, don't you call that a slam at me.
00:22:03Caught again.
00:22:05I apologize.
00:22:07And before I ruin myself irrevocably, I'm going.
00:22:09Goodbye, Miss Beekman,
00:22:11and good fishing.
00:22:13Goodbye.
00:22:15So you think that Miss Beekman
00:22:17is now ready to take her place
00:22:19in the halls of the mighty?
00:22:21Quite. Her wardrobe is very complete,
00:22:23and her few groceries
00:22:25have entirely disappeared.
00:22:27But there's only one thing.
00:22:29What's that?
00:22:31Her ignorance of people and places
00:22:33is only natural.
00:22:35So I should suggest a convent background
00:22:37to account for it.
00:22:39Well, she looks innocent enough.
00:22:41Oh, yeah? You wouldn't think so if you heard
00:22:43some of the propositions I got in the restaurant.
00:22:45Miss Beekman, there are certain things a lady does not talk about.
00:22:47Name one.
00:22:49Miss Milgram, take her away.
00:22:51I'll make reservations at the Clifton
00:22:53and go down next week. I'll follow later on
00:22:55if my nerves are calm enough.
00:22:57Kenny, dear, if I don't marry a millionaire
00:22:59and repay you a hundredfold,
00:23:01I'll marry you.
00:23:03Goodbye.
00:23:05I won't let you down.
00:23:13Will you dine at home tonight, sir?
00:23:15Stevens, how do you distinguish
00:23:17between a filial kiss
00:23:19and one of the other kind?
00:23:21I beg your pardon, sir?
00:23:23Do I look old enough to be Miss Beekman's father?
00:23:25Why, certainly, sir.
00:23:27Stevens, you're a fool.
00:23:29Oh, yes, sir.
00:23:31And so am I, and that makes us two of a kind.
00:23:33Bring me a cocktail.
00:23:35Yes, sir.
00:23:37Make it a double one.
00:23:49Good evening to you, Mrs. Nolan.
00:23:51Is Mary in?
00:23:53Why, Mary doesn't live here anymore.
00:23:55Nick's on the gagging.
00:23:57You didn't kick her out because she lost her job, did you?
00:23:59Kick her out, say she will.
00:24:01You should have seen the car.
00:24:03Car? What are you talking about?
00:24:05A gentleman in a Rolls Royce
00:24:07called to see Mary,
00:24:09and Mary doesn't live here anymore.
00:24:11Oh.
00:24:13Now, you're a fool, Mr. Nolan.
00:24:15I'm not a fool.
00:24:17Oh.
00:24:19Now you won't be wanting those flowers.
00:24:21No, and I wouldn't be
00:24:23giving them to you.
00:24:25Oh.
00:24:47I know you're just dying
00:24:49to get into a bathing suit, Mr. Brennan.
00:24:51Why don't you run along?
00:24:53Well, what are you going to do until dinner?
00:24:55Walk off the effects of lunch.
00:24:57Good. See you later.
00:25:03I say, Jeanette,
00:25:05don't you think it's about time for another cocktail?
00:25:07Why, Tiffy, you've just had an eye-opener.
00:25:09Oh, the better to see you with, my dear.
00:25:11Oh.
00:25:13Oh.
00:25:15The better to see you with, my dear.
00:25:17Well, if you can do that well on one, let's have another.
00:25:19Fine. Bye.
00:25:23Mr. Alden will easily see us here, Mary.
00:25:25I wish he'd hurry.
00:25:27I want to mix a little pleasure with business.
00:25:29Don't be impatient, dear.
00:25:31I feel you've aroused tremendous interest.
00:25:33Yes, but don't forget,
00:25:35I'm here to collect the principal and let the interest go.
00:25:37Be careful, Mary.
00:25:39People may hear you.
00:25:41Your waiting is over.
00:25:45Bye.
00:25:53Why, Ken!
00:25:55Why, this is an unexpected pleasure.
00:25:57Is the Clifton a new favorite of yours?
00:25:59From now on it is.
00:26:01How did you know I was here?
00:26:03Well, the very fact that I'm here proves I didn't.
00:26:05Oh, dear.
00:26:07Do I have to start all over again?
00:26:09How long are you going to stay?
00:26:11Oh, a couple of weeks, maybe longer.
00:26:13Give me a little time to work on you.
00:26:15Still broke?
00:26:17Oh, quite the contrary. Affluent.
00:26:19I'm a promoter now.
00:26:21Too bad.
00:26:23I thought if I couldn't get you any other way,
00:26:25you might marry me for my money.
00:26:27If I ever need any more money, Clarissa,
00:26:29I'll be sure to let you know.
00:26:31Just a minute now.
00:26:33What is this promotion scheme?
00:26:35Oh, I'm not supposed to talk about that.
00:26:37It's a new beauty idea.
00:26:39There's never been anything just like it.
00:26:41Put me down for a thousand shares.
00:26:43Oh, I'm sorry, darling.
00:26:45You're about the hundredth person who's asked me to cut them in.
00:26:47It can't be done.
00:26:49Same old stubborn Ken.
00:26:51But I'm glad you're beginning to settle down, dear,
00:26:53and things are breaking for you.
00:26:55You're not getting any younger, you know.
00:26:59I wish people would stop referring to my age.
00:27:01I'm beginning to feel positively patriarchal.
00:27:05Well, you'd think I had a long gray beard
00:27:07or needed this cane or something.
00:27:11Oh, there's someone I know. Will you excuse me?
00:27:13Oh, no.
00:27:15You're not going to get rid of me that easily.
00:27:17I suspect you're the real reason.
00:27:19Uh, Miss B, I present Mr. Cortland.
00:27:21How do you do?
00:27:23Mr. Gardner, Mr. Soutard.
00:27:25Oh, and Pat Brennan.
00:27:27How do you do?
00:27:29I hope you'll pardon such a waste.
00:27:31You seem to spend half your time in a bid.
00:27:33How about Tippi?
00:27:35He tells me that he spends half his time in a lawsuit.
00:27:37That's the penalty of money.
00:27:39Alimony.
00:27:41You should feel honored.
00:27:43You and Miss Stanhope are the only girls that Pat has wanted.
00:27:45Probably the only two conservatives.
00:27:47Conservatives?
00:27:49Yeah, it's a political term. Stan Pat.
00:27:51Oh, I'm afraid I can't make much of that.
00:27:53You'd better take another dip.
00:27:55I will if you'll join me.
00:27:57Oh, I'd love to.
00:27:59Miss Milgram, do you mind if I go in swimming with Mr. Brennan?
00:28:01Not at all, dear.
00:28:03Do you think you can find your bathing suit?
00:28:05With the help of a microscope.
00:28:09You won't go in without me, will you?
00:28:11I'll be waiting on your doorstep. Come on.
00:28:15And now I introduce them.
00:28:19Who is he, Tippi?
00:28:21Why, uh, well, I don't know.
00:28:23But he has oodles of money,
00:28:25a nice yacht over in the cove,
00:28:27and good liquor, so who cares?
00:28:33Got to look like a million dollars this afternoon.
00:28:35I thought you said you had two million.
00:28:37Yes, I have, but if I look like a million, it ought to do.
00:28:39Met a little skirt today, there's a knockout.
00:28:41Giving her a party on the yacht.
00:28:43Big pardon, sir.
00:28:45Don't you mean you met a young woman of superlative charm?
00:28:47Yeah, that's right, thanks.
00:28:49Got to watch my step with that little girl, huh?
00:28:51She's got class written all over her.
00:28:53A true aristocrat.
00:28:55A true aristocrat.
00:28:57Yeah, probably the only one around here outside of Miss Stanhope.
00:28:59The rest of those Janes,
00:29:01and I mean Janes,
00:29:03are no different from the models we used to play around with.
00:29:05Colonel's lady and Judy O'Grady are sisters
00:29:07under the skin.
00:29:09Say, that's good. Did you write that?
00:29:11Oh, no. Kipling's.
00:29:13I've never heard of him, but I'll make a note of that.
00:29:15It's true. You know, one of those babes told me
00:29:17a story today that even made me blush.
00:29:19Yes, the demeanor of the upper classes
00:29:21is becoming quite deplorable.
00:29:25Yeah, you said a mouthful.
00:29:27Say, where's my tie clasp?
00:29:31I'm sorry, sir.
00:29:33Seems like sometimes it's just too much for me.
00:29:35I have to do a little job
00:29:37just to keep my hands in.
00:29:39Of course, I would have
00:29:41returned it, sir.
00:29:43All right, as long as you practice on me,
00:29:45but not on the other guests in this joint.
00:29:47Okay, Pat.
00:29:49And another thing.
00:29:51I'm Mr. Brennan to you around this dump.
00:29:53Yes, sir.
00:30:03© BF-WATCH TV 2021
00:30:33© BF-WATCH TV 2021
00:30:51Well, Mary, here we are again.
00:31:03Do you realize that you've cut into every dance?
00:31:05If you'd stop dancing with other men,
00:31:07I wouldn't have to.
00:31:09Would you like me to?
00:31:11Oh, well, say.
00:31:13Now you're talking my language.
00:31:33© BF-WATCH TV 2021
00:31:39Whoa!
00:31:41What's the hurry?
00:31:43Oh, just a little game of hide-and-go-seek.
00:31:45You're not fooling me for a minute.
00:31:47I've been watching.
00:31:49I trust you enjoyed yourself.
00:31:51Probably more than you have.
00:31:53On the contrary, I haven't been bored for an instant.
00:31:55Let's get a breath of fresh air, shall we?
00:32:04© BF-WATCH TV 2021
00:32:07Mmm, this air is ever so much better than the saloon.
00:32:10It certainly is, isn't it?
00:32:12You know, you seem to be the only girl that doesn't drink.
00:32:15Don't you approve of them drinking?
00:32:17I should say I don't. I don't approve of anything they do.
00:32:20They drink too much, smoke too much, and paint too much.
00:32:23Well, your eyes are as good as mine.
00:32:25The men are just as bad.
00:32:27I'm afraid the Tiffany Courtlands and the Micah Rileys
00:32:30are very much the same.
00:32:32Micah Riley?
00:32:34Oh, yeah, I know what you mean.
00:32:37Like that well-known line...
00:32:39Uh...
00:32:41The colonel's lady and Judy O'Grady
00:32:43are sisters under the skin.
00:32:46You know who wrote that?
00:32:48Kipling.
00:32:50Yeah, that's right.
00:32:52Good, isn't it?
00:32:54Very.
00:32:56You know, I'm sorry I had to find it out at my party.
00:32:59I gave it really for you.
00:33:01You did all this for me?
00:33:04That's nothing to what I'd like to do.
00:33:07You know, I hardly saw you all afternoon.
00:33:10You seem to have been very much in demand yourself.
00:33:18Oh, there you are.
00:33:21You know, Mr. Brennan, you've neglected me all evening.
00:33:25What did I tell you?
00:33:27What did you tell him?
00:33:28That he wasn't a very polite host.
00:33:30Well, I'll take care of that right now.
00:33:32Come on, then.
00:33:33Excuse.
00:33:49You and Miss Beekman are getting on famously, aren't you?
00:33:53You notice things, don't you?
00:33:56When I'm interested.
00:33:58I, too, can learn things when I'm a lookout man.
00:34:02Lookout man?
00:34:04Oh, I see.
00:34:06You're quite a philosopher.
00:34:08Philosopher?
00:34:09No, not exactly.
00:34:11But my life is often dependent upon my snub judgment of other men's characters.
00:34:15How interesting.
00:34:17Tell me, are you a self-made man?
00:34:20I beg your pardon?
00:34:22Well, did you make your own money, if I may ask?
00:34:25Oh, yes, no.
00:34:28You see, it was another man's experiment, but I profited by it.
00:34:35Oh, hello.
00:34:37Have you seen Mary?
00:34:39No.
00:34:40Thanks.
00:34:41Oh.
00:34:50Hello.
00:34:51Hello.
00:34:53Is the man on the moon affecting you, or the man on the boat?
00:34:58I was thinking of that night on the bridge.
00:35:01Yes, it is rather reminiscent of that.
00:35:04The railing and the water underneath.
00:35:06Well, how's our scheme coming along?
00:35:09I think Tiffany Corbin would be easy to get, but...
00:35:12Pat Brennan would be easier to take.
00:35:15I can appreciate that.
00:35:17But we don't know anything about Brennan, or how much he's really worth.
00:35:21Well, we do know that Cortland is worth ten million.
00:35:25He may have it, but he's certainly not worth it.
00:35:28Now, Mary, don't be too exacting.
00:35:31The bills will soon be rolling in.
00:35:33Won't the poor little rich fish bite?
00:35:35Well, I won't try until later.
00:35:37As a matter of fact, I did turn down one offer today.
00:35:39Miss Stanhope wanted a thousand shares.
00:35:41Miss Stanhope?
00:35:43Well, why didn't you close the deal?
00:35:45I need some change, and so does Miss Milgram.
00:35:47Oh, I simply couldn't take it from Clarissa.
00:35:49I'll work the man.
00:35:50In the meantime, don't be so particular.
00:35:53After all, Tiffy has a yacht quite as nice as this one.
00:35:58Ah, Tiffy, what are you coming down backwards for?
00:36:02I just want to see where I've been.
00:36:05Oh, there you are.
00:36:07You know, you're elusive as the will of the wisp.
00:36:10And you're as inevitable as the will of the god.
00:36:13Oh, the wills of the god wind slowly, is that it?
00:36:17Hmm, and they wind tight.
00:36:24Does he by any chance mean me?
00:36:27What do you think?
00:36:29Oh, I think you're grand.
00:36:32Oh, you mustn't try to kiss me, Tiffy.
00:36:34I hardly know you.
00:36:36After all, I only met you this morning.
00:36:38Oh, I've married them much quicker than that.
00:36:41That'll be just about enough of that.
00:36:43What's the idea?
00:36:44Jealous?
00:36:45No, not at all.
00:36:46You're acting like a sophomore, that's all.
00:36:48Oh, it's the same thing.
00:36:50Then I guess I'll be as much right here as you have.
00:36:52What's the trouble, Alden?
00:36:54Oh, Tiffy's getting a little out of hand.
00:36:56Come on, Tiffy.
00:36:57I'll open another case of champagne.
00:36:59Good.
00:37:01I'm sorry, Mary.
00:37:03Shall we go below?
00:37:04I think you need a powder puff.
00:37:31Do I look all right now, Ken?
00:37:33You have a little too much lipstick, darling.
00:37:39There, that's better.
00:37:41Ken, dear, thanks for rescuing me.
00:37:43I was afraid you'd be scared to show your hand.
00:37:45Don't worry.
00:37:46I'll keep my eye on you.
00:37:52Hello, babe.
00:37:53Having a good time?
00:37:55Yeah.
00:37:57Hello, babe.
00:37:58Having a good time?
00:38:00I was just going to get some coffee for Miss Beekman.
00:38:02She's a bit upset.
00:38:03Why don't you invite me to join you?
00:38:05That's a great idea.
00:38:06We'd love to have you.
00:38:07Yes, of course.
00:38:08Well, let's go.
00:38:11Oh, I've been looking for you, Alden.
00:38:13One of you ladies will excuse us.
00:38:14Just a moment, please.
00:38:16First Miss Beekman steals you, and now you steal Ken.
00:38:19Oh, well, I can always take the veil.
00:38:24Come along.
00:38:25What can we do without them?
00:38:28I know it's poor form for a host to try to sell a guest something,
00:38:31but how about the reverse?
00:38:33I don't quite follow you.
00:38:34Well, I heard accidentally that you had an excellent proposition.
00:38:37I'd like to get in on it.
00:38:39Well, didn't Clarissa also tell you that I refused?
00:38:42She did.
00:38:44Well, I'll have to do something.
00:38:48I'll tell you what.
00:38:49I'll try and get a block of stock for my friends,
00:38:52and I really can't take more than $1,000 from each.
00:38:55Well, that's better than nothing, but I wish you could make it $10,000.
00:38:58Oh, there you are, Alden.
00:38:59Oh, hello, Souda.
00:39:00Hello, Gardner.
00:39:01I guess you gentlemen are looking for me too, huh?
00:39:03In a way.
00:39:04Why, yes.
00:39:06I suppose word is getting around that I have a gold mine in this new beauty preparation.
00:39:11Everyone wants to get in on the ground floor.
00:39:14Is that what Pat's doing?
00:39:15Exactly.
00:39:16If you find I can have more, you'll let me know, won't you?
00:39:18Well, I'm afraid that would freeze someone else out, old man.
00:39:21Will you excuse us, Brennan?
00:39:23I want to talk business to Alden.
00:39:25Why.
00:39:26Pause.
00:39:29Greed is a terrible thing, Souda.
00:39:31Come on, Alden.
00:39:32What's the dope?
00:39:33Well, we're forming a pool, just a few intimate friends.
00:39:36And are we in that category?
00:39:38Well, naturally, since you put it that way.
00:39:40But I'm afraid I can only let you have $1,000 each.
00:39:43That's excellent, Alden.
00:39:44If you need more, please let me know.
00:39:46Is there any risk?
00:39:48Well, the greater the risk, the greater the profit, you know.
00:39:50That's what I like, a gamble.
00:39:52I'll give you my check before I leave.
00:39:54Thanks, a million.
00:39:55I'll send you my check in the morning.
00:39:57This is my lucky day.
00:39:58Okay, boys.
00:39:59I'll keep you posted.
00:40:01Hello, boys.
00:40:02Oh, hello, Tiffy.
00:40:03Alden, may I see you a moment?
00:40:06Ken, I want to apologize.
00:40:09That's quite all right, Tiffy.
00:40:11Are we still going to be friends?
00:40:13Why, certainly.
00:40:15You're not just saying that.
00:40:16Of course not.
00:40:18I'll tell you what I'll do to prove it.
00:40:20We're forming a pool, only a few intimate friends,
00:40:22and I only let them have $1,000 each.
00:40:24But you, I'll let you have $2,000.
00:40:29Oh, thanks, Ken.
00:40:31That's darn right of you.
00:40:33$2,000?
00:40:36Yeah, $2,000, yeah.
00:40:38I'll pour, Stuart.
00:40:43Cream?
00:40:44Sugar?
00:40:45No, thanks.
00:40:48Wasn't the Kentucky Derby thrilling this year?
00:40:52I'm afraid I wasn't there.
00:40:53I heard it over the radio, though.
00:40:56Of course, you've been abroad so much.
00:40:59And Longshore is so much more attractive than Churchill Downs.
00:41:03Don't you think?
00:41:06I've never been abroad.
00:41:08You see, this is my first trip out here.
00:41:11I've been an incumbent the past four years.
00:41:14Really?
00:41:15How interesting.
00:41:17Wasn't it fortunate Mr. Alden recognized you?
00:41:20You didn't remember him at all at first, did you?
00:41:23No, I think I only met him once before.
00:41:26But he was a close friend of my father's.
00:41:29And I suppose you regard him in loco parentis?
00:41:35I don't understand.
00:41:37Why?
00:41:38I thought all you convent girls were wizards at Latin.
00:41:42No, they didn't teach us Latin.
00:41:45Well, that's strange.
00:41:50Oh, I'd like to apologize for staying away so long.
00:41:53Won't you sit down?
00:41:54And you, Mr. Brennan?
00:41:55No, thanks.
00:41:56I was going to take you away.
00:41:57You see, we rigged up another radio in the after deck for dancing.
00:42:00Oh, lovely.
00:42:02I'll tell you all about the convent later.
00:42:04Oh, yes, do.
00:42:13I have a feeling, darling, you're trying to put something over on me.
00:42:19Are you going in for cradle snatching?
00:42:22You're just about the age, you know.
00:42:25I wish you would stop it.
00:42:27My age seems to be a main year with you.
00:42:29I'm not doddering, you know.
00:42:31In fact, I'm just a young fellow right in the prime.
00:42:34Prime to fall for one of these baby faces.
00:42:39You know, Ken, a woman can fool a man.
00:42:43But she has a hard time putting anything over on her own sex.
00:42:53I'll try and remember that.
00:43:04Well, Mary, how do you like it?
00:43:06Oh, this is grand.
00:43:07I could live here forever.
00:43:08Well, maybe you will if things work out right.
00:43:16Good morning.
00:43:17Good morning.
00:43:18Would you like to come for a drive, Ken? I'm going into town.
00:43:21Well, thanks, Clarissa. I'm much too lazy.
00:43:23I believe you, darling.
00:43:25But there are thousands who wouldn't.
00:43:27I quite agree with you, Miss Stanhope.
00:43:31What happens when an irresistible force meets an immovable body?
00:43:36You tell him, Miss Beekman.
00:43:38You've been to school since he has.
00:43:42So long.
00:43:54Just what does she know?
00:43:55Nothing yet.
00:43:56She suspects a lot.
00:43:58How are the subscriptions coming in?
00:44:00Very well.
00:44:01Tiffy and Gardner and Souter each chipped in a thousand.
00:44:04Oh, by the way, how's Tiffy behaving now?
00:44:07He'd probably propose if I gave him the chance.
00:44:12He's told me all about his past
00:44:14and how he feels a good woman could make a man of him.
00:44:16You know the line.
00:44:18Why not let him propose, then?
00:44:20Always remember, he has ten million.
00:44:23Yeah, I know.
00:44:24But he's a halfwit.
00:44:25Young lady, you can't have everything.
00:44:30I suppose I'll have to.
00:44:32If Pat doesn't say something.
00:44:34Yes, I think you'd better.
00:44:36We can't keep up this bluff too long.
00:44:38But I know Pat feels the same way I do.
00:44:42You mean you're in love with him?
00:44:45Yes, Ken.
00:44:46And he's in love with me.
00:44:48Only, well, he's so darned over-respectful.
00:44:52Well, let's see.
00:44:53We'll have to find some means of bringing the young man to his knees.
00:44:57Let's see now.
00:44:59It's old stuff, but it might work.
00:45:01Why not let him rescue you?
00:45:03Rescue me?
00:45:04Yes, the old drowning gag.
00:45:06When he holds your lovely limp form in his arms
00:45:09and realizes how near he came to losing you.
00:45:11Shh, look out. Here he comes.
00:45:15Well, good morning.
00:45:16Aren't you going in swimming?
00:45:17Sure.
00:45:18You better not.
00:45:19Why not?
00:45:20I don't think she should so soon after eating.
00:45:22Bad for cramps, you know.
00:45:24Oh, I'm not going to let a little thing like that stop me.
00:45:26Attagirl.
00:45:27Six lengths of the pool just to keep the old waistline down.
00:45:30I'll race you the first length.
00:45:31All right, you're on.
00:45:32Brr, this is going to be cold.
00:45:41Come on, fifth length.
00:45:54Hey, come on.
00:45:56I don't care who wins, just make a race of it.
00:45:59Oh, boy, I love...
00:46:13Help! Help!
00:46:25Ouch!
00:46:30Mary, darling, it's Tippy.
00:46:32Oh, I never realized how much I loved you.
00:46:48What happened to you, Mary?
00:46:50I told you not to go in so soon after eating.
00:46:52Are you okay, Pat?
00:46:54Yes, I'm all right. How about you?
00:46:56I'm all right.
00:46:57I guess Ken was right, I shouldn't have gone in.
00:46:59Although it gave Tippy a chance to show what he can do.
00:47:04Oh, I got my drink wet.
00:47:06I guess I better go and get a fresh one.
00:47:10I'd certainly like to know who threw that light preserve.
00:47:13I'm afraid I did.
00:47:14I'm very sorry.
00:47:16Oh, well, that's all right.
00:47:17I think I'll go get me an aspirin.
00:47:19Yeah, get me one too, will you?
00:47:22It didn't work.
00:47:27I'm sorry.
00:47:54Are you hurt, miss?
00:47:57I'll take you to the hospital.
00:47:58Oh, no, you won't.
00:48:00I'm going to take you and drop you off at the psychopathic ward.
00:48:03Huh?
00:48:04Come on, come on.
00:48:05No use to cry over spilt milk.
00:48:07I'll send a tow car for this.
00:48:13Well, what are you waiting for?
00:48:14Get in there and drive me to the Hotel Clifton.
00:48:17Yes, ma'am.
00:48:28What on earth were you doing on the wrong side of the road?
00:48:32Well, I wasn't thinking, miss.
00:48:34You see, I got a great sorrow in me life.
00:48:37A secret sorrow, eh?
00:48:39Well, you look as though there's something wrong with you.
00:48:42Yeah, me girl give me the gate.
00:48:44At least she showed some signs of human intelligence.
00:48:47Yeah.
00:48:48She's a smart-looking squirt like you.
00:48:51I beg your pardon.
00:48:53That's all right.
00:48:54Look.
00:48:55That's her.
00:48:56Listen, you keep your hands on the wheel.
00:48:58You're driving a truck.
00:48:59Yes, ma'am.
00:49:11Is, uh, is that the girl?
00:49:13That's her.
00:49:14That's me, Mary.
00:49:16Say, if Mary's name doesn't happen to be Bill,
00:49:19Sure.
00:49:20Do you know her?
00:49:21Oh, very well, indeed.
00:49:23And I'm going to take you right to your little Mary.
00:49:26So you'd better step on it.
00:49:28I'll say I will.
00:49:36Quick, honey.
00:49:37I have to dress in a hurry.
00:49:38What's all the excitement?
00:49:39I'll tell you while I'm dressing.
00:49:40Did you see Mr. Alder?
00:49:41Yes.
00:49:42He's in a hurry.
00:49:43He's in a hurry.
00:49:44He's in a hurry.
00:49:45He's in a hurry.
00:49:46He's in a hurry.
00:49:47He's in a hurry.
00:49:48Did you see Mr. Alder?
00:49:49Yes.
00:49:50He went to look for a quiet spot where he can kick himself
00:49:52without fear of interruption.
00:49:53Nevertheless, one little word from me,
00:49:55and I can be Mrs. Tiffany Cortland.
00:49:58Did he propose at last?
00:49:59Uh-huh.
00:50:00Now I can burst into society and have a fortune at my feet.
00:50:04Why didn't you accept him?
00:50:06Because I don't want him.
00:50:08I want Pat Brennan.
00:50:11Gee, I'd rather have Pat even if he were a truck driver.
00:50:18Remember, you've got to think of Mr. Alder.
00:50:20I'm not forgetting him.
00:50:21I'm going down now to give Pat another chance.
00:50:24And if he doesn't take the hint,
00:50:25then I'll be Mrs. Tiffany Cortland the third.
00:50:28But Pat will take the hint.
00:50:30I hope so, Mary.
00:50:31I wouldn't like to see you marry Mr. Cortland.
00:50:33Thanks, Miss Milgram.
00:50:34I've asked him to give me a little time to think it over.
00:50:36I don't see how Mr. Brennan can help from proposing.
00:50:40You look so sweet in this dress.
00:50:42But if Pat does propose,
00:50:44can I marry him without telling him the truth?
00:50:46If you told him, he might think you were a liar and a cheat.
00:50:50Oh, I wish Ken were here.
00:50:52I'll try to find him before I see Pat.
00:50:58Miss Beakman's room, please.
00:51:02Oh, thank you.
00:51:09Oh, hello.
00:51:10I was just coming up to see if you were all right.
00:51:12Yes, I'm all right.
00:51:13I wasn't really in any danger.
00:51:14Gosh, I got an awful scare when I heard you scream and saw you sink.
00:51:17I realized that I might lose you.
00:51:21Would it have mattered a great deal?
00:51:24Yes, it would.
00:51:26I'm not very good at saying these sort of things,
00:51:28but from the first minute I saw you, I...
00:51:32I hope you don't think I'm talking out of turn saying these things.
00:51:35You haven't said anything.
00:51:37But I think maybe I know what you're trying to say.
00:51:41Let's go outside.
00:51:55Where is she?
00:51:56Just control yourself.
00:51:57She's around here someplace.
00:51:59Well, I'll be a son of a gun if it ain't the boys.
00:52:02How are you, Pat?
00:52:04What are you doing here?
00:52:05I used to work for this guy driving one of his beer trucks,
00:52:07and let me give you an earful, sister,
00:52:08that wasn't as smart a bootlegger and a racket.
00:52:11Bootlegger?
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:19For crying out loud.
00:52:21Don't you look swell.
00:52:23Kind of different from slinging hash in Lion's Restaurant, huh?
00:52:28Say, is this the guy that's paying the bills?
00:52:31Mike, how dare you say such a thing?
00:52:33Wait a minute, mug.
00:52:34What's the idea of a crack like that?
00:52:35I'll tell you what the idea is.
00:52:36This little hash slinger loses her job.
00:52:38The next I hear, she's leaving her room and house
00:52:39with a high hat and a Rolls Royce.
00:52:41All right, what's the answer?
00:52:45Is that true?
00:52:47Well, yes.
00:52:48That part's true, only...
00:52:50So, that's the kind of a Jane you are, huh?
00:52:53Posing here as a little girl out of a convent,
00:52:56a society debutante,
00:52:58when you're nothing but a cheap little toot-tump.
00:53:00Who are you to accuse me of being a four-plus
00:53:02or a double-cross or anything else?
00:53:04Pat Brennan bootlegger,
00:53:06pretending to be so refined while trying to,
00:53:08shall I say, muscle into society.
00:53:11It's kind of funny when you think of each of us
00:53:13falling for the other's line.
00:53:18I'm sorry, Pat.
00:53:20I made a mess of things as usual.
00:53:30You say some guy drove her away in a Rolls Royce?
00:53:33Yeah, and her nothing but a hash slinger.
00:53:35Wait a minute, I don't give a hoop what she is.
00:53:37The idea of that mug, whoever he is,
00:53:39paying her bills here and buying her all them swell clothes.
00:53:43What are you going to do about it?
00:54:03Hey, taxi! Just a moment.
00:54:09To the station, driver.
00:54:11Levin! Levin!
00:54:16Give me a lift. I want to get to the station.
00:54:18All right, get in.
00:54:27Oh, my tiara!
00:54:29My priceless diamond tiara's gone, stolen!
00:54:32Don't get upset, Mrs. Smythe.
00:54:33What do you know about this, Elsie?
00:54:35Nothing. I cleaned Mrs. Smythe's room this morning,
00:54:38but I didn't see it, sir.
00:54:39I wore it last night!
00:54:41Who else has been in your room?
00:54:42No one but this maid.
00:54:43Don't be too sure it was Elsie.
00:54:45I saw Mr. Brennan's man coming out of Mrs. Smythe's room
00:54:48a short time ago.
00:54:49Mr. Brennan's man?
00:54:50Yes, and he didn't look like he wanted to be seen either.
00:54:52Oh, but you know what goes on.
00:54:54Oh, the insolence!
00:54:55Say, that reminds me.
00:54:57I saw Mr. Brennan's man hurrying away in a taxi with a girl.
00:55:00Oh, it couldn't have been Mr. Brennan's man.
00:55:02This maid was in my room this morning.
00:55:04Get me the police department.
00:55:06Hey, what's the big idea?
00:55:31Not so fast, Blevins.
00:55:34What's the matter?
00:55:35Very innocent, ain't you?
00:55:36Well, get in that car.
00:55:37Driver, you follow us.
00:55:41All right, let her go.
00:55:55Why have you arrested Miss Beekman?
00:55:56She was making her getaway with the thief.
00:55:58I just asked Blevins to give me a lift to the station.
00:56:02You and Miss Beekman must be telling the truth, officer.
00:56:04She couldn't be mixed up in this.
00:56:06Don't be too sure about that.
00:56:08Have you got my tiara?
00:56:09Yes, we found it in the man's grip.
00:56:13But that doesn't clear the girl.
00:56:22Why, Mary, my dear.
00:56:23Oh, Ken, they think I stole Mrs. Smythe's tiara.
00:56:27What?
00:56:28I only asked Blevins to give me a lift to the station,
00:56:30and they found the tiara in his grip.
00:56:33Aren't you making yourselves rather ridiculous
00:56:35when you try to implicate Miss Beekman?
00:56:37Well, she was with him when we caught him.
00:56:39That makes her an accessory after the fact.
00:56:41Not necessarily.
00:56:42I've already told them.
00:56:43The young lady is telling the truth.
00:56:45I assure you, she had nothing to do with the transaction.
00:56:51Spoken like a gentleman, Blevins.
00:56:53I, too, am willing to vouch for her integrity.
00:56:56If such a thing were necessary.
00:56:58Well, if you say so, Mr. Raldin, and there's no charge, why...
00:57:02Of course not.
00:57:03I think we owe Miss Beekman our most humble apologies.
00:57:08I'm so sorry, dear.
00:57:10That's all right.
00:57:11Oh, Miss Smythe, please.
00:57:16Now, uh...
00:57:21Idiot.
00:57:22Just because you work for a living,
00:57:24you're not good enough for him, huh?
00:57:26No, it wasn't just that, Kenneth.
00:57:29He thought from what Mike said that I...
00:57:31that we were...
00:57:33Well, he knew somebody had bought me those clothes and things.
00:57:36Oh, I see.
00:57:37And, of course, he thought the worst.
00:57:40Well, I suppose it would be pretty lame to try to explain.
00:57:44It wouldn't sound very convincing.
00:57:47Yet I think I could make him see it,
00:57:49if he really cares for you,
00:57:52and if I knew where to find him.
00:57:54I know, Kenneth.
00:57:58Forgive me for eavesdropping,
00:58:00but just what is the explanation,
00:58:02if you don't mind my asking?
00:58:04I was just introducing Miss Beekman
00:58:06to some likely matrimonial prospects, and...
00:58:09She fell in love with a bootlegger.
00:58:11Yes.
00:58:12I'm sorry, youngster, I messed things up for you.
00:58:15That's all right.
00:58:17I'd have had to tell him anyway.
00:58:19Well, maybe I can help you out.
00:58:22You see, your ex-boyfriend, Mr. O'Reilly,
00:58:24said something about Brennan having a penthouse
00:58:26on top of the Clinton Arms.
00:58:28Good girl, Clarissa.
00:58:29You stay here with Mary,
00:58:30and I'll run right over and have a talk with him, all right?
00:58:32Fine.
00:58:33Now, don't you worry.
00:58:35We'll have some tea, huh?
00:58:38What do you think I want your bail for?
00:58:40If I thought you couldn't tell me anything,
00:58:41I'd have let you stay in the jug.
00:58:42But I didn't see anything, Pat.
00:58:44I tell you, Alden had his arm around her like he owned her.
00:58:46And you, staying in the same hotel and couldn't get wise.
00:58:49No.
00:58:50All you could see was a diamond Ferrara.
00:58:52Tiara, sir.
00:58:53Shut up!
00:58:57Hey, Flunky.
00:59:00Blevins, you.
00:59:01All right, Blevins.
00:59:03Go in and tell his nips I don't want to grow a beard waiting for him.
00:59:06You'd better not talk to him today.
00:59:12I'm sorry, sir.
00:59:13I'm sorry.
00:59:14I'm sorry.
00:59:15I'm sorry.
00:59:16I'm sorry.
00:59:17I'm sorry.
00:59:18I'm sorry.
00:59:19I'm sorry.
00:59:20I'm sorry.
00:59:21I'm sorry.
00:59:22I'm sorry.
00:59:23I'm sorry.
00:59:24I'm sorry.
00:59:26Mr. Brennan, then?
00:59:27Yes, sir.
00:59:28I'd like to see him, please.
00:59:29I believe the desire is mutual.
00:59:31Please be seated.
00:59:41He's here.
00:59:42Who are you talking about?
00:59:43Alden.
00:59:44What?
00:59:45Now, listen, Pat.
00:59:46Why don't you let me handle this?
00:59:47I'll handle this personally.
00:59:48Oh, that's a trouble.
00:59:49You won't let me keep in practice.
00:59:50Send him in.
00:59:51Yes, sir.
00:59:52But I shall hold myself in readiness if he becomes...
00:59:54What?
00:59:55Obstreperous.
00:59:56Obstreperous.
00:59:57That la-di-da croquet player.
00:59:59If he wasn't such a heel, I'd be ashamed to lay a finger on him.
01:00:02Get him in here.
01:00:05Mr. Alden.
01:00:09Scram.
01:00:14Brennan, I came to see you about Miss Beekman.
01:00:16Oh, yeah?
01:00:20He crossed him with his right and Pat kissed him.
01:00:22He kissed it?
01:00:23Incredible.
01:00:30Boy, you pack a mean wallop.
01:00:33Yes, I've had a lot of experience with wallops.
01:00:36As I was saying, I came here to talk to you about Miss Beekman.
01:00:41Now will you listen?
01:00:43Okay, Alden.
01:00:44Shoot.
01:00:45I'll listen.
01:00:46Let's sit down.
01:00:49I want to straighten you out about Miss Beekman, Brennan.
01:00:53You're laboring under very false impression.
01:00:56You know, it seems funny, but I used to be afraid of you.
01:00:59Oh, and I disliked you terribly at first.
01:01:02Of course, I was only jealous.
01:01:04I don't know why Ken won't marry you.
01:01:06You're really awfully nice.
01:01:08Oh, I know I am.
01:01:09But I can't seem to make him think so.
01:01:16There he is.
01:01:18I hope your luck's better than mine.
01:01:24Oh, there you are.
01:01:26How does it feel to be playing Santa Claus?
01:01:29I wish you'd stop comparing me with elderly gentlemen.
01:01:32All right.
01:01:33Boy scout, then.
01:01:34Doing your day's good deed.
01:01:36Is that better?
01:01:37Much better.
01:01:38Clarissa, it's in the air.
01:01:40And since I'm a boy scout, I'm going to be a boy scout.
01:01:44I'm going to be a boy scout.
01:01:45I'm going to be a boy scout.
01:01:46I'm going to be a boy scout.
01:01:47I'm going to be a boy scout.
01:01:48I'm going to be a boy scout.
01:01:49I'm going to be a boy scout.
01:01:50Clarissa, it's in the air.
01:01:52And since I'm a boy scout, I may as well do another good deed and marry you.
01:01:58Ken.
01:02:00Do you mean it?
01:02:01Why, of course I mean it.
01:02:03What?
01:02:04What's the matter?
01:02:05Well, it's such a shock.
01:02:14Come in.
01:02:15Thanks.
01:02:16Did you send for us?
01:02:18Yes, it's about that money you invested with me under false pretenses.
01:02:26False pretenses?
01:02:28Yes, I'm no longer interested in any beauty preparation.
01:02:32Why, Ken, were you lying to me?
01:02:35No, darling, I was very interested.
01:02:37As a matter of fact, you helped put it on the market.
01:02:40Well, what's the name of it?
01:02:41Mary Beekman.
01:02:43Mary Beekman?
01:02:44Yes, she's the beauty.
01:02:45And all of you ate it in her preparation.
01:02:49Oh.
01:02:51Well.
01:02:53For what?
01:02:54For me.
01:02:56Gentlemen, I bought you out.
01:02:58You see, I couldn't have any other stockholders in Mary Beekman Limited.
01:03:02So I'm returning your money with interest.
01:03:07Well.
01:03:08Then we financed it ourselves.
01:03:11Just a bunch of suckers.
01:03:12Just think of all the nice wedding presents they'll buy.
01:03:15For whom?
01:03:16For us.
01:03:18What about our dividends?
01:03:19Yeah.
01:03:21Right here.
01:03:25That was certainly money well invested.
01:03:32May I expect the same dividend quarterly or semi-annually?
01:03:35You have a surprise coming.
01:03:38The corporation has been dissolved.
01:03:42I also have a surprise for you.
01:03:45Mr. Alden has just consented to marry me.
01:03:49Of course you realize I'm marrying you for your money.
01:03:53That's what you think, darling.
01:03:58Pat.
01:03:59Is that what you think?
01:04:00That I...
01:04:01I've never sized up a character wrong yet.
01:04:04You did too.
01:04:05You thought I was a real lady.
01:04:07I still do.
01:04:18THE END
