Who can turn the world on with her smile?

Who can take a nothing day and suddenly make it all

seem worthwhile?

Well, it's you, girl, and you should know it.

With each glance and every little movement you show it, love is all

need to waste it. You can have the town, why don't you take it?

You're gonna make it after all

You're gonna make it after all

before you go home. Okay, sure.

What about me, Lou?

Okay.

Okay, don't let me drink too much, though, because I get silly.

Ted, before you go in there, you gotta promise you won't get silly. Okay, I

promise.

Cutie pie.

Hey, this is a great

guy. Like old times.

Say, Lou, you got any of those coasters with those funny sayings on them?

Drank, Ted.

Over your lips and down your throat until you never wake up laying next to a

goat.

That's real cute, Ted.

Thanks.

It was on the wall of the men's room at the zoo.

Hey, this is really exciting.

You know, this is the first time I've had a night out with a boy since I've

married.

Too bad Mary couldn't be here.

Ted, if Mary was here, it wouldn't be a night out with the boys.

Would be for her.

Who'd she go out with tonight, Lou?

She didn't say. How do you think a terrific woman like Mary never got

I don't know.

She probably just never met the right guy yet, that's all.

She deserves the best.

Yeah. The only problem is maybe there isn't anybody good enough for her. Oh,

come on.

Any one of us would make a perfect husband for her.

Hey, wouldn't that be something?

Being married to Mary?

Yeah. Imagine.

Yeah, she'd make a great wife.

Considerate, warm, sensitive.

Stacked.

Yeah.

Great wife.

Are you sure?

Very.

Oh, what am I saying? Of course you're sure. Look at you.

Oh, wow.

Our very first baby.

I feel so terrible.

Why? Well, I was so wrapped up in my novel and myself, I didn't even notice

were pregnant.

Oh, Murray, darling, don't blame yourself.

How could you have noticed?

Well, with working at the factory all day, the post office all night, and

driving a cab... on weekends where you've hardly seen me the last few

Yeah. Well, from now on, things are going to change.

You're giving up those jobs.

Yes,

Mary, things are going to change. I'm going to go out and go to work. Murray,

won't hear of that.

You've got to finish your novel. Oh, Mary, I can't have you sacrificing like

this. I'm going to go out. I'm going to get a real job so we can build a future

for ourselves and the baby.

Oh, after all, I'm not getting any younger.

Murray, don't talk. No, it's true, Mary. It's true.

Now, I'm going to tell you something. You may not believe it. I know you won't

believe it, but I'm going to tell you anyway.

I think I'm going bald.

Oh, Murray, darling.

You will never, ever go bald.

Thank you, Mary.

Oh, you're the best wife, Mary.

Now, you sit down and you finish that novel. But, honey... Marie, sit.

I don't care how long it takes. You are not giving up.

Even if I had to go on working forever.

You're right, Mary.

I will finish it.

I'll make you proud of me. You wait and see.

There's a story inside of me that's got to be told. There's only I can tell it.

Go to it, Marie.

But where do I go from here?

Oh, Marie, you'll think of something wonderful and... Oh!

What is it, dear?

Oh, now...

Just labor pains.

Oh, my God. Sit down.

Murray, no. Come on. We only have one chair.

You sit.

Oh.

Murray, I've got to drive you to the hospital.

Nonsense, nonsense. I'll hitch a ride.

I'll just pack my things. You keep writing that novel, Murray. Oh.

working here.

Sorry, darling. I was just giving birth.

Birth?

It's a boy.

He's beautiful.

What a woman.

Yeah.

A great woman. Wife?

What's that, Murray?

Oh, well, I was just saying, I think Mary would make a terrific wife for

somebody.

Yeah, well, while we're on the subject of terrific women, I'd like to propose a

toast to some wonderful girls that are very dear to my heart.

Help make my life complete.

To my wife, my mother, and Charlie's angels.

You know, I think Mary should hold out until she meets the perfect guy.

Somebody intelligent, handsome, talented.

Like George F. did.

Too bad I'm married.

Might have been great for Mary.

Um, there's an extra buck in it if you'll help me with this.

Yes, sir.

There you are. Would you like me to show you where everything is?

No, thank you. I'm sure she'll tell me.

Oh, darling.

I can't believe I'm really Mrs.

Ted Baxter, married to the most famous...

Needing you.

Wanting you.

It's finally happened.

You're mine. All mine.

No doubt about it, you're a lucky broad.

If you only knew how long I've waited for this moment.

Please, honey.

I know you're only human, but try to control yourself.

Oh, Ted.

Oh, Ted, darling, let's never leave this room.

Let's nail the door shut and spend the rest of our lives here doing crazy

things. No inhibitions.

Okay, but no whips or midgets.

Oh, Ted.

Promise me you'll never leave me.

I promise.

Even if you meet someone more beautiful?

Oh, no way.

Someone more exciting?

It's impossible.

Someone with more money?

Nice room, isn't it?

I'm going to get ready now, darling.

Daddy for the most exciting moment of my life

wedding, honey.

Oh, just beautiful, Ted.

It was so nice that so many of your friends could come.

I was really surprised when the Queen of England showed up.

Who, Liz?

Well, why not?

Breaks up the monotony.

Gives her a chance to get out of the castle.

And wasn't it sweet of the Pope to come?

Yes, but he sure loused up the seating arrangement.

Should have been boy, girl, boy, girl.

At least he could have brought a date.

Oh. Mary,

this may sound impossible, but you're even more beautiful than I am.

Mary, you have no idea how long I've waited for this moment.

Let's get started.

We only have the room for a week.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No? What do you mean, no? You've got to. No, I don't. Yes, you do. It's my

fantasy. Ted, I have limits. I will only go so far even in your fantasy.

What are you talking about? I mean, I will kiss you.

I will say nice things to you.

I will even dress up in my favorite shorty nightgown. But I will not get

that bed with you.

Mary, please just go along with this for a few more minutes and I'll never

bother you again.

things we can talk about?

Of course. We can discuss anything.

Politics, movies, football.

Right. Let's discuss football.

Fine with me. Good.

Now, how do you guys figure an intelligent girl like Mary doesn't

football?

Beats me.

Hey, you know who she should marry?

Who? Someone like you.

I don't know.

Strong? Sensitive, understanding.

Me? Yeah, I think you and Mary would have a terrific marriage.

Nah.

Mary and I are like brother and sister.

It never lasts.

Why not? I've had the same sister for 40 years.

Who knows?

Maybe it would last.

50th wedding anniversary.

Oh, you know you couldn't do that. You would never miss a day in your newsroom.

You love it too much.

Yeah, that's right.

And I love you too, Mary Grant.

Are you happy?

Deliriously happy.

Except, of course, for...

It's hard to believe we've all been together that long.

You know, I've even grown fond of Ted.

Yeah. Well, maybe that's because as you've grown older, you have more in

with...

nice. How about you, Mary?

The same, Ted.

Really?

Well, we'll be seeing you and Georgette at our party tonight.

I wouldn't miss it for the world.

What's the occasion?

You're still as senile as you were 50 years ago.

Thanks. Hey,

have you heard? Lou and Mary are celebrating their golden wedding.

celebrating my youngest son's birthday.

Oh, how old is he now?

Two.

Good old Murr.

It's been a great 50 years, hasn't it?

The best.

Except, of course, for... you know.

Chat. Sure.

What do you want to talk about?

Well, I was hoping that you and I might discuss... You know.

That's funny.

I didn't hear it that time.

Hear what?

You know.

Good night, Mary. Good night, Mary.

Good night. Ted, we'll see you later at the party.

Party? What party?

Our anniversary party.

Are we...

of this, but it is our golden wedding anniversary, and I just think

maybe it's time we consummated our marriage.

Oh, gee, Mary.

Everything was going so nice and smooth, and now you have to ruin it.

Well, at the very least, you owe me an explanation. Okay,

okay, I'll take it.

But it's sort of hard to explain.

You know, when we were first married, you were like a daughter to me.

A daughter.

And it just seemed unthinkable for us to be that way.

And then, the years followed, and we were middle -aged.

you were like my sister.

And that didn't seem right either.

What's wrong with now?

Are you kidding?

Now you're like my mother.

It's not a real stag party unless you have a cigar.

No, Ted, I don't smoke cigars anymore.

That's just as well.

Makes me dizzy anyway.

I start to cough and choke.

Next thing you know, I'm sick to my stomach.

And why did you want a cigar?

I thought it'd be fun.

Come in.

But you had a date tonight.

Yeah, I did. He dropped me off here to pick up my car, and I noticed your cars

were all still here.

Well, your date's over. What time is it? 12 .30.

I better get going. I got to get going, too. I got a tough day tomorrow.

Well, if you do, I guess I do, too.

Well, hey, where are you guys running off to? I thought maybe we'd all have a

drink.

Hey, Mary's right, you guys. Where are you running to?

I mean, she came all the way up here, and we're going home.

She wants a drink. You want a drink, Mary? I would love one.

Help yourself.

We gotta go home.

Mary, was he nice tonight, the guy you went out with?

Oh, well, I don't know, Murth. Hard to tell. You know, it was his first date

everything. Mary, if you marry him, you'll really be a lucky man.

You'll be an inspiration to him, Mary.

Well... Thank you.

Well, Mary, if you do get married, I bet it's going to be one of the great

marriages.

I bet it'll last forever.

Well, that's really very nice.

And, Mary, if you really care for him, be sure to go to bed

with him on your honeymoon.
