01:14Ah, you look lovely.
01:17Lovely? Lovely for what?
01:19All dressed up and no place to go.
01:22Left waiting at the altar. No bridegroom.
01:24Oh, he'll be here.
01:26I told that adulterated, irresponsible man that if he ever kept me waiting again, he'd be sorry for it.
01:31Sheila, please.
01:33Doesn't that man think there's anything important about getting married?
01:36About getting married to me?
01:37Control yourself. Our guests.
01:39Our guests.
01:40They're probably whistling through their fingers and stamping their feet.
01:43If they're still here...
01:44Sheila, you mustn't. You mustn't, dear.
01:47Oh, a bridal bouquet.
01:49Pretty thing, isn't it?
01:50Hello.
01:53Where's the bridegroom?
01:54Well, that's what I'd like to know.
01:56Where is the bridegroom?
01:58No, no, no, no, dear. Calm yourself. Calm yourself.
02:01You'll spoil everything.
02:02Think of those people downstairs.
02:05That's what I am thinking about.
02:07They came here to see a wedding, didn't they?
02:09Well, they're going to see one.
02:10But you can't have a wedding without a bridegroom.
02:12There'll be a bridegroom.
02:13Who's downstairs?
02:15Fred? George?
02:16Get Henry for me.
02:17Henry? Henry who?
02:18Henry Tuttle, my lawyer.
02:20But you don't need a lawyer.
02:21Oh, yes, I do.
02:22Now, are you going or am I?
02:24Oh, I'm going.
02:25Oh!
02:40No bridegroom, eh?
02:47Well, we'll see.
02:54There you are.
02:55Henry, something has happened to Sheila.
02:57Come at once.
03:00What's wrong?
03:01You've always gotten me out of jams before, haven't you, Henry?
03:03Yes, plenty of them.
03:04Well, this is the biggest one I was ever in, and you've got to get me out of it.
03:06How?
03:07Marry me.
03:08Oh, you can't do this.
03:09It's crazy.
03:10Mother, this is my wedding, not yours.
03:12It's all very simple, and you're an attorney.
03:13All you have to do is change the license.
03:15No, you can't, dear.
03:16It isn't done.
03:17This is horrible.
03:18Horrible.
03:19Well, what about Eric?
03:20Are you going to argue or marry me?
03:23Are you serious?
03:24Do I look playful?
03:27Give me that license.
03:44Leave me waiting at the church, will you?
03:58Come in.
04:04How are you doing?
04:05Oh, all right.
04:06Oh, now, isn't that silly?
04:09Well, it's not so silly.
04:10That's an old custom that has a great deal of significance.
04:12Well, it's silly to me.
04:13Anyway, it's all over, thank goodness.
04:15Right.
04:16You know, I never thought I'd be lucky enough to manage this.
04:19Oh, you were wonderful, really, except for a little nervousness.
04:22And I'm very grateful, Henry.
04:24Eric would have shown up eventually, but this will teach him a lesson.
04:27Next time, he'll be more punctual.
04:29Next time?
04:30Yes.
04:31Oh, would you put this over here?
04:32No.
04:37I won't be so lenient with him.
04:42I may be a little bit stupid, but just where does our marriage fit into this picture?
04:46Oh, our marriage is a purely social gesture to save a purely social situation.
04:52I see.
04:54Bridegroom fails to show, I double for bridegroom, save your face, and help teach bridegroom to be a better boy hereafter.
05:00Exactly.
05:01I wouldn't be surprised if Eric took a plane and came right down after us.
05:07Just how long do you calculate you'll need my services as a standard?
05:10Oh, not long.
05:11As soon as the publicity dies down, I'll go to Reno and do it all very quietly, and everything will be straightened out for everybody.
05:19You could choose a vacation, Henry.
05:22Oh, here it is.
05:24What?
05:25A wedding present from Aunt Letitia.
05:28A picture of Eric as a baby.
05:34Pardon me, please.
05:35Where are you going?
05:36Going out to the club car and get quietly but effectively plastered.
06:05Well, I think this will do very nicely, don't you, Henry?
06:07Yeah, it's comfortable, home-like.
06:11Oh, it's charming.
06:14Too bad there's only one bedroom.
06:17But, uh...
06:20Yes, I think you'll manage quite nicely on the couch.
06:35Is there anything else, sir?
06:37No, that's all.
06:39Thank you, sir.
06:40It's unusually hot for this time of year, isn't it?
06:42Yes, it is, sir.
07:04Henry, have you got...
07:08Ah, yes.
07:13Well, the trunks are here.
07:14Now we can start getting into something cool.
07:16Good.
07:32What is it, Henry?
07:54Do you mind if I come in and get a few things out of my trunk?
07:56Oh, wait just a minute.
08:01You may come in now, Henry.
08:05Little snookums.
08:11Henry, be careful.
08:12Sorry.
08:20I hope my trunk being in your room won't embarrass you.
08:23Not at all. Why should it?
08:30Henry, would you move those over onto that bed?
08:33Because I've decided to sleep here.
08:34I like the light on my right.
08:36Right.
08:37Yes, right.
08:41I hope you won't be too uncomfortable on the divan.
08:44Oh, not at all, not at all.
08:46I'll be as comfortable there as, uh, anywhere.
08:49Practically.
08:51Well, it's too bad we had dinner on the train.
08:53Otherwise we might have killed some time.
08:57We can play cards.
08:59The moon bridge.
09:00Perfect.
09:01Ducky.
09:12Hmm, what a marvelous orchestra.
09:14Should be. It's Georgie Stoll's.
09:16Well, Henry, I didn't know you knew orchestra leaders' names.
09:19Well, I guess I must have read it on one of the cards they leave around the rooms.
09:22Would you like to dress and go down?
09:24Oh, no.
09:25One of the people might look at us archly, and I can't endure being looked archly at.
09:28Can you?
09:29What?
09:30Archly.
09:32Never archly.
09:35Excuse me.
09:45There you are.
09:54Oh, how sweet.
09:55Oh, this is wonderful.
10:00Open.
10:03Oh, isn't that lovely?
10:06Oh.
10:07Oh, they're for you.
10:08Well, that's very thoughtful of you, Henry.
10:10Here, put them in water.
10:15Hello?
10:17Who?
10:20Henry, it's for you.
10:26Hello.
10:28Oh, hello there.

10:33Oh, yes.
10:34Yeah, well, thanks a lot.
10:36Are there newspapers?
10:38No, no, I haven't.
10:40What?
10:42A caveman?
10:45Oh, yes, that's me all over.
10:47Past worker.
10:48I don't dare give him a chance to think.
10:50Oh, yes, we're very, very happy.
10:52Yes, indeed.
10:53Well, I want you to meet my wife.
10:55She's an awfully nice little person.
10:57Very much of a homebody and all that sort of thing.
11:03No.

11:31He has a cottage around here somewhere.
11:32You'll meet him.
11:33I don't want to meet him.
11:34I want to know what he said.
11:36Oh, he said he wanted to meet you.
11:38Henry Tuttle.
11:39He said something about the newspapers.
11:41Now, what was it?
11:42Oh, the newspapers.

15:13What he said. You know this was
15:16a very happy thought and I'm going to print part darling darling I resent that in
15:22fact I resent everything. What have you got to say to yourself. What have you
15:27got to say to yourself where were you did you forget there was
15:31a wedding. I went to a movie. Henry did you hear that he went to
15:37a movie I was
15:38a show Eric I don't know I want to sleep asleep and I'm not listen to you know I
15:42wouldn't deliberately go as a matter of fact it was
15:44a little bachelor party last night and. Well when I woke up this morning I was in
15:49a movie you know I've always wondered what sort of people go to movies early in
15:53the morning well now you know.
15:58I think that's sweet for you Eric. To the bride.
16:09To Uncle Fred heaven bless it Uncle Fred bless it.
16:17To three on
16:18a honeymoon Oh I think that's sweet and to those who go to movies early in the
16:21morning. I resent that that's the third time today you said it's
16:27something what are you going to do about it. Very well if it makes you feel any
16:32happier yes and we'll talk the whole thing over the morning at breakfast yes I'll
16:36know.
16:45You shouldn't stop me I don't want to. Perhaps another time.
16:57But. I resent
17:04your attitude toward Eric. Don't you stop resenting things. Too much. Well I hope
17:11you'll be able to sleep it off one on that thing. Do you mind if I go in and get
17:17some more things out of my trunk.
17:27This must be very unsatisfactory for you and that's putting it mildly. About your
17:32trunk of course but you think I meant well one hardly knows frankly you'll amaze
17:38me I'm just
17:39an average normal individual the fact that you seem to have completely overlooked
17:44when I was going to have to try to get along I don't want people to think you're
17:47only my lawyer with Eric hanging around on this honeymoon who are they going to
17:51think I am. Now wait
17:54a minute just because we're in
17:55a situation that's a little awkward is no reason for you to lose your temper. My
18:00temper I'm losing my identity that's right.
18:07I'll tell you one thing Reynolds has got to clear out of here. I suppose you think
18:15you can tell me who will and who will not stay in this hotel.
18:18That's the thing. That's keep it up keep it up well whether you like it or not he's
18:26going to stay here he's going to stay because I want him here we've planned and
18:30planned this honeymoon and the places we go and the things we do and we're going
18:35to do. All right go ahead and do them do one of these and I'm putting it out of
18:42this business of being pushed around first I get pushed into marrying you and then
18:46you start pushing me out. Now listen to me I've been in love with you for years
18:51you knew that that's why you asked me to marry you and that's why I married you at
18:54the same time I don't think you're perfect I do think you have possibilities.
18:59The point is this you're a spoilt willful headstrong brat. I'll take this business
19:04of you marrying me offhand. It was quite in keeping with your general arrogance.
19:09I can't understand you. You've always been so kind and patient.
19:12From now on things are going to be different. You just bear that in mind Mrs.
19:15Tuttle and everything will be fine and dandy. I'm sorry I ever married you Henry
19:20Tuttle.
19:28Give me a pillow and some covers.
19:45I resent it.
20:45.
21:03Now you mustn't feel bad about last night we're all a little on edge from the
21:06champagne.
21:45.
22:15.
22:31Good morning good morning. You look very domestic. I'd rather you
22:38didn't sleep on the balcony the windows and the people who I didn't sleep on the
22:42balcony. Oh you didn't. Where were you out all night.
22:49That's a habit of mine sometimes I come in late sometimes I never come in at all.
22:56Oh would you like some breakfast could I send some up for you I'm having breakfast
22:59with Eric. I forgot you give my apologies to the dear boy for my attitude last
23:04night he's an awfully nice chap. Thank you. See you later. Are you going someplace.
23:10No. What might that be. It might be laundry.
23:15Why don't you call the boy and have him come by flannels I wash them myself.
23:39.
23:56A large tomato juice porridge.
23:59Kip and herring. Bacon two eggs. White toast. And a pot of tea.
24:05.
24:10Doris is that the lucky bridegroom. Lucky not the bridegroom.
24:17The gal has her points. You've forgiven me. Did you sleep well my sweet.
24:24Never close my eyes dear girl. I just kept thinking and thinking.
24:30Oh no but I couldn't help worrying. You know we Reynolds always do.
24:36You look so beautiful. Thank you.
24:46What's the matter.
25:06.
25:10Why it's Henry.
25:13Of course it is I'd know him anywhere.
25:24Did you see that. No. Well he just did a whole.
25:29You mean one and a quarter. Very easy.
25:35.
25:50I have a date with a couple of.
25:55By girls.
26:00.
26:02Well what do you make of that.
26:06I wonder if I can file my application.
26:12Well you see I was like this when he was six feet old his father took him on the boat and threw him into eleven years of water and it's been sink or swim ever since.
26:20Thanks old boy. I've had breakfast. I'll see you later.
26:32.
26:37The whole thing is rather amazing point is what are we going to do about it.
26:41Now don't you worry I can handle him.
26:50This toast.
26:57.
26:58That's right.
27:04Just a spot maybe.
27:08I suppose it's modern and all that but I think it's outrageous.
27:15.
27:20They've no right to print that I'll sue them.
27:22Well it doesn't do you justice.
27:23Justice justice is that all you can say.
27:27Oh look there they are again.
27:30.
27:53.
28:12.
28:13Oh no.
28:18.
28:20Well don't abuse them they got us away from those awful reporters.
28:23Yeah and probably into jail for larceny too.
28:30Sheila we can't go on with this impossible situation.
28:33I'm going to have a word with Tuttle tonight and put an end to this whole fantastic episode.
28:37How do you think I feel hearing people call you Mrs. Tuttle.
28:40Tuttle.
28:41Such a silly name.
28:43Oh I know darling it's too dreadful.
28:45I must have been out of my mind.
28:47Yes you must.
28:48Now wait a minute.
28:49What do you think about the time that you.

32:20Sheila and I are going over to the Gables tonight to the dinner dance.
32:24That's if you've no objections Henry.
32:25Not at all.
32:26Sheila speaks very highly of your dancing.
32:27I'm sure she'll enjoy it.
32:29Well that will leave you free to be with me.
32:31As if you don't mind Mrs. Tuffle.
32:33Oh not at all Miss Van Orden.
32:34I think it's awfully nice of you because I wouldn't want Henry to be alone.
32:38We'll dine aboard the yacht and it'll be like old times.
32:41You know I never lie on a moonlit deck or listen to that lovely Hawaiian thing Paradise Isle without thinking of you Henry.
32:47Oh you've known Henry quite some time then?
32:50Oh yes indeed.
32:51Well we met on a cruise of the island two or three years ago.
32:54You know Henry really made that trip for me.
32:57Oh.
32:58That must have been while I was still in school.
32:59Oh you'll forgive me darling but you were smudged with dust on that sweet little nose of yours.
33:30Lovely.
33:31Isn't it?
33:34Eric selected it.
33:36It's his favorite of my entire trousseau.
33:40Eric has excellent taste.
33:42Hasn't he?
33:44Cigarette?
33:45Yes.
33:58My it is pleasant out here tonight.
34:01Music, moonlight.
34:03Oh there's a falling star.
34:05Make a wish.
34:12Oh that must be Eric.
34:14Funny but I'd almost forgotten about him.
34:16Funny.
34:17So would I.
34:22Come in.
34:25Oh darling.
34:26Oh darling.
34:27How beautiful you look.
34:31Oh hello Henry.
34:32Oh you don't mind of course old man.
34:34Why should I object?
34:35I'm only the man she married.
34:37Yeah that's right.
34:38There you are my sweet.
34:39I'll put them on and be right back.
34:42Ah cigarette.
34:45Have one?
34:46Thanks though.
34:47No.
34:49Oh thank you.
34:50Oh look here Tullo.
34:52I want to get out of here.
34:54Oh no really?
34:55When are you leaving?
34:56I mean you must understand this is hardly the sort of honeymoon that I'd planned.
35:00Nor I but here we are.
35:02Yes here we are.
35:04And we can't get out of here until something's done about it.
35:06We?
35:07Yes.
35:08Sheila and me.
35:09Oh.
35:11How are you going to handle it?
35:13I?
35:14Well you'll see.
35:16I'll handle it.
35:17How are you going to handle it?
35:18I?
35:19Well you're the lawyer.
35:21Aye it isn't up to me.
35:22It's up to the party of the first part.
35:24So far she's handled everything delightfully.
35:26Personally I'm very happy.
35:28You are?
35:29Good heavens.
35:30Well I'm all ready.
35:32Okay sweetie.
35:34Eric and I are going on a picnic tomorrow Henry.
35:36Would you like to join us?
35:37Well thanks though I have other plans.
35:39Oh well good night.
35:41Good night.
35:42Good night.
35:44Oh did we come to any conclusion?
35:45Not that I know of.
35:47I thought we did.
36:07Oh hello folks.
36:09Why Henry I didn't know you played tennis.
36:11You didn't know I played tennis did you?
36:13Tennis I should say he does.
36:15I played two years ago at Palm Beach
36:17and I've won three cups already.
36:19Proud of me?
36:20What do you think?
36:21Sheila I want you to meet Miss Evans,
36:23Claire my wife.
36:24How do you do Mrs. Tuttle?
36:25How do you do?
36:26This is Mr. Eric Reynolds who just came along to...
36:28Isn't it a lovely morning Miss Evans?
36:30Perfectly gorgeous Mr. Reynolds.
36:32We're going to meet Helen.
36:33Have a nice day.
36:34Don't look for us until this evening.
36:36Nice to have met you both.
36:43See you later.
36:45Are you going swimming with us today?
36:47Sorry girls.
36:49Well he certainly seems to be having a good time.
36:52I can't think what a weight that takes off my mind.
37:05Oh this is wonderful.
37:07Alone together away from all that nonsense.
37:09I think it's all too silly.
37:11I can't understand all those girls
37:12simply throwing themselves at Henry's head.
37:14Oh it's the publicity.
37:16Oh publicity alone wouldn't have been enough.
37:18There must have been something in Henry all along
37:20that none of us ever suspected.
37:22Oh there's mosquitoes.
37:24Now now don't antagonize it dear.
37:26You'll merely make it mad.
37:27Well I'm certainly not going to stay here
37:29and get stung just to keep a mosquito in a good humor.
37:31The place is alive with them.
37:33Yeah it's the water.
37:35Well let's get out of here.
37:37Come on.
37:38You bring the things dear.
37:40Yes sweet.
37:42Come on.
38:05Eric.
38:06Yes my sweet.
38:13Oh this is lovely.
38:14It's a meadow isn't it nice?
38:16Oh it's beautiful.
38:25On my shoulder honey.
38:26Oh.
38:30You know Eric.
38:32It just dawned on me that it's probably the glamour
38:34of that Van Orden girl that appeals to Henry.
38:36All those ostentatious yachts
38:38and country houses and things.
38:40Now darling that's none of our business.
38:43Oh.
38:48Oh Eric.
38:49Eric Bulls.
38:51Don't be silly they're cows.
38:52Cows are all right.
38:53Well not by me they're not.
38:55Trespassing huh?
38:57Can't you folks read?
38:59Well of course we can read.
39:00Where did that come from?
39:02Now don't tell me you didn't see it.
39:04That sign says no trespassing
39:06and that's what it means.
39:07Now get.
39:08We were just leaving
39:10but don't let a little authority go to your head on us.
39:12Pretty fresh ain't ya?
39:13Let me help you darling.
39:15Ah striking an officer huh?
39:17Resistant arrest.
39:18You'll go to jail for this.
39:19Come on get.
39:20Come on.
39:27Now this is a fine mess.
39:30Could I have some more coffee darling?
39:32Here pour it yourself.
39:34Thank you sweet.
39:35Don't sweet me.
39:36If it wasn't for you we wouldn't be in here.
39:38Why me?
39:40I didn't pick the spot to picnic.
39:41No but you poked the policeman.
39:43I didn't poke him on purpose.
39:44If I had he'd still be out and we wouldn't be in.
39:47Well I can see nothing's going to be done
39:48until they find Henry.
39:50Henry is probably out with that Van Orden girl.
39:53Oh here's Izzy.
39:54That Van Orden girl.
39:56She's the type who merely says
39:58I'm going to do this old dear
40:00so you're going to do that.
40:02What are you mumbling about?
40:03Nothing I'm talking to myself.
40:05Nobody better to talk to.
40:08She's in the habit of taking what she wants
40:09and if she wants Henry
40:10well she'll probably take him.
40:12As far as I'm concerned she can have him.
40:13Anybody can have him.
40:14Don't you talk about Henry when he's not here.
40:16I'll talk about Henry any way I please.
40:19As a matter of fact if Henry were here
40:20I'd tell him a few things.
40:21That's the last egg.
40:22I'm sorry.
40:24Maybe you two could fight better outside.
40:28Come on.
40:30Well I'm very glad to see
40:31that you've come to your senses at last officer.
40:34Yeah.
40:35It's a good thing for you two
40:36that you know Miss Van Orden.
40:37Oh she got us out.
40:39Well give her my compliments
40:40and say no thank you.
40:42A fellow by the name of Tuttle put up the money.
40:44Oh he's my husband.
40:45Oh he did did he?
40:46Well I stay here.
40:47No you don't.
40:48I'm not going back there alone.
40:50What I can't understand young woman
40:51is how you can go around with a sap like this
40:54when you got a nice fellow like Tuttle for a husband.
40:57Now look here officer.
40:58The first sock that I gave you was a mistake.
41:00This one.
41:01Yeah well go ahead and do it.
41:02Do it.
41:04Skip it.
41:07Come on.
41:23Of course you can ignore me if I'm too personal but
41:26but what's it all about Henry?
41:28Huh?
41:29Oh forgive me Helen.
41:30I'm afraid I'm not even being decently polite.
41:32What's what all about?
41:33Oh this little three cornered honeymoon
41:35and you and...
41:36Helen will you please understand
41:37if I don't want to talk about it?
41:39You don't have to Henry Tuttle.
41:41I'm way ahead of you.
41:43You're in love.
41:45I have been for a long time.
41:47You seem to be the first one to have suspected it.
41:49Well
41:50some gals do get all the breaks.
41:53But you're sweet Henry and
41:54and if I can help you just
41:56just give me a cue and I'll play my part
41:58and try to like it.
42:00Helen you're a prick.
42:02Well I suppose your little bride will be coming home
42:04from jail any minute now
42:05so
42:06so I'll be running along.
42:08But you're coming tonight Henry.
42:09I most certainly am.
42:36It was lucky for us that Henry got us here.
42:38Oh nothing of the sort.
42:39I have influential friends myself.
42:41You'll notice he didn't wait.
42:43Probably too occupied with Helen Van Orden.
42:46I was wondering
42:48Wondering what?
42:49Well whether he'd really be happy with her or not.
42:52I think I should stay married to him long enough
42:54to give him a chance to get over it.
42:56Oh you do, do you?
42:57Well I'm going to have something to say about that.
42:59Well Eric
43:00I'm going to have something to say about that.
43:02Well I'm going to have something to say about that.
43:04Well Eric I feel very responsible for Henry.
43:07Oh!
43:08Drat Henry!
43:09Haven't you put me through enough today
43:11without cursing at me?
43:13You may consider our engagement broken.
43:16Oh Sheila!
43:18I love my dreams, I love you
43:23I ask that you
43:26La da dee dee dee
43:29Da da da
43:31If I could just talk
43:34Hello.
43:35Hello.
43:36La da dee dee dee
43:38You sing, eh?
43:39Oh yes, I do a lot of things.
43:41La da dee dee dee
43:43Doesn't that make you happy?
43:45La da dee dee dee
43:47Doesn't it matter to you that I spent the afternoon in jail?
43:50Well I did all I could, I bailed you out, didn't I?
43:53Yes, thank you.
43:55Eric and I thank you very much.
43:57Don't mention it.
43:59You didn't come by yourself, did you?
44:01No, I was busy.
44:02I sent the money down by special messenger.
44:06Da da da da da da da
44:08There's only one
44:11Girl of my dreams
44:12You can't get her out of your mind, can you?
44:14Who?
44:15The girl of your dreams, Van Orden.
44:18Don't be silly.
44:20Well, I'm off. Thanks for the use of the room.
44:23Where are you going?
44:25A garden party.
44:26Whose?
44:27Miss Van Orden's.
44:29Da da da dee da da
44:31Da da dee
44:34Da da da dee da da
44:38Eric Reynolds' room, please.
44:41He's not in.
44:50Oh, hard-boiled eggs.
44:55Picnic.
45:04Da da da da da da da
45:06Da da da dee
45:08Girl of my dreams
45:14Beautiful, huh?
45:15Well, I'm glad you like it.
45:17That's it.
45:28Henry, you're not going to leave me for one moment.
45:30Helen, that's very unkind.
45:31Well, you know you're not happy.
45:33I'm not happy.
45:34I'm not happy.
45:35I'm not happy.
45:36I'm not happy.
45:37I'm not happy.
45:38I'm not happy.
45:39I'm not happy.
45:40I'm not happy.
45:41I'm not happy.
45:42I'm not happy.
45:43I know you're not having a good time.
45:45But I am.
45:53I certainly must be an awful failure
45:55if I can't make you take your mind off your troubles.
45:57Oh, you're doing a very good thing.
46:00Sheila.
46:02All right.
46:03Run along.
46:05Now, trail.
46:11Sheila, this isn't surprising.
46:13I can't see why it's surprising for a man to find his own wife at a party where he is himself.
46:18If you want to put it that way.
46:21Well, I'm glad you like it.
46:23I'm glad you like it.
46:24I'm glad you like it.
46:25I'm glad you like it.
46:26I'm glad you like it.
46:27I'm glad you like it.
46:28I'm glad you like it.
46:29I'm glad you like it.
46:31Well, Mrs. Tuttle.
46:33How very charming.
46:35I didn't think you'd mind, Miss Van Orden.
46:37Since my husband is such a welcome guest.
46:40Mine?
46:41Why, Henry and I are terribly pleased, aren't we, Henry?
46:44Yes, yes, certainly we are.
46:47This is a lovely party.
46:49In fact, it's quite the loveliest I've ever had the pleasure of crashing.
46:52Where's Eric?
46:54He went into town.
46:55On his bicycle?
46:56Sorry.
46:57Yes, he does seem to be a rather unique person, doesn't he?
47:01That's exactly what I like about him.
47:03Oh, yes.
47:04I suppose you understand him.
47:06Of course, I imagine he grows on one.
47:09Not at all.
47:10You see, you either like Eric or you don't like him.
47:12Right on.
47:13Oh, really?
47:14How interesting.
47:15Well, well, do I intrude?
47:16Oh, no, Clifford.
47:17Mrs. Tuttle, this is Mr. Van Fleet.
47:19This is a great pleasure, Mrs. Tuttle.
47:21Mr. Van Fleet?
47:22Well, aren't you dancing?
47:24Oh, may I?
47:25With me.
47:26Why not?
47:29You will excuse us.
47:57You do everything well.
47:59You even dance better than anybody else.
48:01That's my inspiration.
48:03Henry, you never used to say things like that.
48:06You never gave me half a chance.
48:19Will you play Paradise Isle, please?
48:26Yes.
48:34Henry, you remember?
48:38You don't mind, do you, dear, for old time's sake?
48:41Not at all.
48:43Paradise Isle's near
48:51The tropical sky
48:58Palm trees sway
49:04While trade winds sigh
49:12Soft guitars
49:17A ball of ice
49:23In my
49:27Paradise
49:35Isle
49:39I won't keep him long, dear.
49:41That's quite all right.
50:01Well, it's a marvelous night.
50:03For what?
50:05Well, for a party like this.
50:08Music, moonlight, romance.
50:12Sorry, but I'm sick and tired of the word.
50:14Oh, no, not you.
50:17You were made for it.
50:19Do you know, it seems difficult to think of you as a married woman, Mrs. Tuttle.
50:25You seem such a child.
50:27That's right.
50:29I am only a child.
50:30And it's long past my bedtime.
50:32Good night.
50:52Well, that was very cute.
50:58Charming of you, Mrs. Tuttle.
51:01Henry and I are delighted, aren't we, Henry?
51:05Paradise Isle, remember, Henry?
51:09You don't mind, do you?
51:11I won't keep him long.
51:14Oh, that woman like the choker.
51:31Oh.
51:42Oh.
52:02Oh, so it's you.
52:03Yes.
52:04Well, you can't come in.
52:06Why not?
52:07Well, you'll forget that I broke our engagement.
52:09Oh, there.
52:11Don't be silly.
52:16Eric, I don't want you here.
52:18Henry isn't home.
52:20Well, that seems difficult to believe.
52:22Oh, can't you understand?
52:23I don't want to see you anymore.
52:26Oh, now, honey, honey, you're all upset.
52:29Now, I know I've been a fathead over this business,
52:31but we'll pack up and get out of here,
52:33and we'll see your lawyer in the morning.
52:35Naturally.
52:36Henry's my lawyer.
52:37Well, you can't expect him to get us a divorce.
52:39All right, we'll see my lawyer.
52:41Oh, that one.
52:42What's the matter with him?
52:43Well, what's he ever done compared to Henry?
52:45Henry?
52:46What is this Henry business?
52:48Is it possible that you're taking this marriage seriously?
52:50Have I ever done anything to make you think
52:52I don't take marriage seriously?
52:54You got into this business through a madcap idea of your own,
52:57which has made monkeys of us all.
52:58Well, maybe you feel like a monkey, but I don't.
53:01And certainly Henry doesn't.
53:03Well, if he doesn't, he's certainly behaving like one.
53:05I never saw a man go so completely playboy in my life.
53:07That's only a pose, Eric.
53:09Actually, I think the poor boy is very unhappy.
53:11Yes, you think so because it flatters your vanity to think so.
53:13I suppose it flattered my vanity for you to go to a movie
53:16when you should have been at our wedding.
53:18Well, I showed up eventually, didn't I?
53:19Yes, an hour late.
53:20Fifteen minutes.
53:21And what is more, if you hadn't gone off half-cocked,
53:23we'd have been spared all this nonsense.
53:24Are you blaming me?
53:25Well, you impossible, egotistical idiot.
53:28If you don't get out, I'll lock myself in my room.
53:31Oh, no, you don't.
53:32You're not going to let me down like this.
53:34I've got my prestige to consider.
53:35Prestige?
53:36Well, why didn't you consider that before?
53:38You know, what you need is a jolly good spanking.
53:40Oh, you wouldn't dare.
53:41Oh, wouldn't I?
53:42Oh!
53:43I am my intruding.
53:45Yes, as a matter of fact, you are.
53:46This is between Sheila and me.
53:48Now, look here, Tuttle, I resent this interference.
53:50That's the word.
53:51It reminds me of something I've wanted to do for a long time.
53:54And what may that be?
53:55Knock your block off.
53:57It's perfectly all right with me.
54:02Oh!
54:05Oh, Henry!
54:06I didn't know you could fight.
54:09Get up and I'll do it again.
54:11It's quite unnecessary.
54:14You've made me see the daylight.
54:16Obviously, Sheila and I are temperamentally unsuited.
54:19I, uh, wish you both the best of happiness.
54:24If by any chance there are any, uh...
54:29I'll send them a pair of bicycles.
54:32Oh!
54:34That was most cowardly.
54:39Well, uh, I mean, you must realize I've had the most hectic honeymoon.
54:43Oh, yes, I understand that thoroughly.
54:45So nice to have had you with us.
54:46Oh, thanks.
54:47Delighted.
54:49Look, there's one thing I do resent.
54:55Oh!
55:01Oh, Henry, I think you're wonderful.
55:03Get in there and pack.
55:04Pack?
55:05Yes, we're leaving.
55:06Leaving? I'm just beginning to enjoy myself.
55:08Well, you'll enjoy yourself in Reno, too.
55:10Reno? Oh, Henry!
55:12I won't go to Reno!
55:14Do you hear me? I won't go!
55:17Why are you ordering me to Reno?
55:19Ordering you? It was your plan.
55:22Well, that was a long time ago.
55:25I've changed my mind.
55:27I've made up mine.
55:31I won't divorce you.
55:33Then I'll divorce you.
55:38Well, you can't. You haven't any grounds.
55:40You forget that I'm a woman.
55:42I'm a woman.
55:43Well, what grounds have you?
55:45You'll read them in my complaint.
55:47Oh, that's not fair. I haven't any lawyer.
55:50You'll find plenty of them in Reno.
55:53You married me, Henry Tuttle, and I'm your wife.
55:57I'm beginning to like married life.
56:00And I won't go to Reno!
56:01All right, stay here. I'm off to New York.
56:06Hello?
56:08Hello?
56:10Hello?
56:11Hello?
56:12Henry Tuttle speaking.
56:14Yes, I want to get a reservation on the 110.
56:16To New York.
56:19You can't go to New York. That's desertion.
56:22All right, sue me.
56:23Oh, Henry! Henry, I think I want to faint!
56:28You missed.
56:30You can't leave me alone!
56:33You won't be alone. Here's Snookums.
56:36Henry Tuttle!
56:37If you do this to me, you'll be sorry!
56:41You're horrible!

57:03Sheila!
57:07Come back here, you little fool!
57:08I won't!
57:11Don't you come near me!
57:12You'll fall!
57:13I don't care! I don't care what happens if you're going to divorce me!
57:17I'm not going to divorce you!
57:19Then say you love me!
57:20I love you!
57:21Say it as if you mean it!
57:23All right, I love you!
57:26Say you'll never leave me!
57:28I'll never leave you!
57:29As long as you live?
57:30As long as I live!
57:33Now will you come back?
57:35Yes.
57:39Oh, Henry!
57:40Henry, I'm frightened!
57:41Don't look down! Don't look down!
57:42Mama, look at me!
57:45That's a girl! That's a girl!
57:48Easy does it!
