(Anne)
'What's the matter?'

Did you lose your nerve,
Maurice?

No. No, i was saving that
for dessert.

I should have known better.

You couldn't go through
with this kind of a trick.

- Trick?
- Yes.

The only way you could get me
to come here, wasn't it?

You're here, aren't you?

'I tried to see you.
I phoned. I left messages.'

- 'You didn't answer.'
- Why should i?

I gave you $10,000
six months ago

to go away and leave me alone.

How time flies.

And now look at me.

Alone and penniless.

Very nice of me
to let you get away with it

for $10,000, don't you think?

You thought that was easy
for me, didn't you?

Just, just picking $10,000
out of the air.

Well, it wasn't.

It meant lies, suspicion.

I can't go on doing it, Maurice,
and i won't.

I'm willing to settle
once and for all..

...for $50,000.

Fifty thousand dollars?

- But i haven't that much.
- You can get it.

- No.
- From your husband.

Not without telling
what i want if for.

- That's your problem.
- But i can't do it, i tell you.

I think you'd better
arrange for it

or i'll get it in another way

that might be
very unpleasant for you.

Well, how do i know
that this time

you'll keep your promise
and really go away?

After all we've been
to each other

you don't trust me?

Alright.

Here.

Call me at this number tomorrow.

No. I better make it Wednesday.

You don't answer
telephone calls.

Only suicide notes.

- This is my private number.
- 'That's different.'

- Wednesday what time?
- 2 o'clock.

Not bad.

Just for security
in the meantime.

Oh.

You have your security.
Let me go.

I might give it back
if you'll stay.

[Slaps]

And the next time
you try to kill yourself

let me know.

I'd love to help you.

[Door opens]

[Door slams]

[Door opens]

Oh.

Schuyler, you,
you frightened me so..

I'm sorry.
I, i must have dozed off.

I, i didn't hear you come in.

Oh, i have been in
for some time.

Well, you must have
come in very quietly. I..

What made you run away
so suddenly after dinner?

I didn't run away.
I, i was tired and nervous.

- I just went for a drive.
- Just for a..

Oh.

[Chuckles]
Of course. How foolish of me.

Good heavens,
it's almost 10 o'clock

and i have a busy day
ahead of me.

Well, goodnight.

Oh, uh, by the way, uh,
why don't you come down

and have lunch with me
at the office tomorrow?

I can't. I'm, i'm lunching
with your sister.

- Sister?
- Yes.

Oh, i see. i..

Well, goodnight, dear.

Goodnight, Schuyler.

[Door closes]

You sent for me, sir?

Oh, you drove Mrs. Brooks
last night, didn't you?

- 'Yes, sir.'
- I've forgotten where she went.

- Where was it?
- We just drove around.

Did Mrs. Brooks
get out of the car?

'Well, yes.
For a couple of minutes.'

- Where?
- I don't remember.

- Maybe it was a shop.
- Shop, eh?

- Is that all?
- 'I think so, sir.'

When Mrs. Brooks came out
of, uh, the shop

did you notice if she was
still wearing her jewelry

her necklace?

'No, sir.'

The shower's ready, sir.

(Schuyler)
'Thanks.'

Grover.

You should watch your mistress
more closely

when she's in your care.

- That's all.
- Yes, sir.

Yes, yes, darling.
I'm listening.

You say you were just 17
when you met this Maurice?

Too young to know anything
except that i wanted to dance.

He took me as his partner and..

And of course,
i, i fell in love with him.

When he saw
we were becoming successful

he asked me to marry him.

I know now, all he wanted
was to tie me to him.

Oh, it didn't take me long
to find out what he really was.

It was pretty awful.

Anyway, i, i stood it
as long as i could.

One day i refused to dance.

Then he said
he wanted to divorce me.

Said he was in love
with somebody else.

Well, i, i told him to go ahead.

And while he was getting it,
i came back to America.

And met Schuyler Brooks.

Yes. The rest you know.

'Six months after i was married,
Maurice showed up.'

'He hadn't gone through
with the divorce.'

- 'He'd lied to me.'
- Good heavens.

I gave him $10,000
to go back to Europe

and complete the divorce.

He didn't do it.

'Now he wants 50,000.'

- The wretch.
- He's given me a week.

I can't raise
that amount of money

without Schuyler
knowing about it.

Already, he's suspicious.

'He watches every move i make.'

Jealous old idiot.

Alright, we'll get that marriage
quietly annulled

somewhere out of the country.

Paris, Cuba, Mexico.

- You don't know Maurice.
- 'Thank heaven.'

He'd follow me anywhere.

- Then that's the solution.
- 'What?'

This Maurice person
isn't an American, is he?

No.

'Then if you can get him
to follow you'

'out of the States,
i'll stop him'

'from ever getting back.'

You'll stop him?

My dear, i haven't been
in this social business

40 years for nothing.

A man of his character?

One little telephone call
to Washington

would cancel his visa like that.

[Chuckles]

(Male #1) 'Five threes
are 15. Five thousand..'

'Five thousand twenty five.'

'Five sixes are 30
and two are 32.'

'Five thousand
twenty, twenty eight.'

'Five times two are ten
and two are twelve.'

I tell you, Schuyler

ten million is cheap for that
string of bar companies.

I recommend the roast duck too.

In the same breath?

You're not eating, dear.

I know, but i can't.

Oh, come, come,
it isn't every day

we have a beautiful woman
lunching with us, eh, Schuyler?

(Schuyler)
'What's the matter?'

Tired, i guess.

I wish i could go away
somewhere for a while.

The wanderlust, eh?
How about a chocolate eclair?

No, thanks.

Perhaps you ought to see
Dr. Graham?

Oh, i'm not ill, darling.

Just fidgety and nervous.

Yes, i've noticed that.

I'm, i'm not sleeping well
either.

Ever count sheep?

That reminds me.

Let me have
some of that cold lamb.

Couldn't we go away together
somewhere?

Well, not just now, i couldn't.

Uh, business.

Well, uh, would you mind if..

...if i went away alone
for a couple of weeks?

You could join me later.

Where would you like to go?

Oh, i don't know.

Bermuda or, or Cuba.
I think i'd like Havana.

If Schuyler can't go,
how about me, Anne?

[Laughs]

That would be too perfect.

- When would you like to go?
- Any time.

Tomorrow.
I could pack in an hour.

- So soon?
- The sooner the better.

Oh, well, very well, my dear.
I'll arrange it.

Thank you, darling.

Of course,
you'll take your maid?

(Anne) 'No, i think
i'd rather go alone.'

Oh.

Very well, just as you like.

And to make it quite perfect

I'd like to go
under my own name.

[Chuckles]
'That would be sort of fun.'

- You don't like his?
- It isn't that.

I, i don't want publicity.
That's all.

I just want to be
plain Anne Vallee.

I want to get
on that big white boat

sit on the deckchair and relax.

Forget everything.

Well, if i'm, i'm really going
tomorrow, i have a lot to do.

Mind if i run along?

No, no, of course not, my dear.

- Goodbye, darling.
- Goodbye, dear.

- See you tomorrow.
- Yes.

Better tell your wife if you
really wanna come along with me.

- Goodbye.
- Yes, goodbye.

You'll see about my tickets,
won't you, dear?

Oh, yes,
i'll talk care of everything.

- Thank you.
- Goodbye.

Why, we have connections and
agencies all over the world.

- We have offices in London.
- Yes, yes, i-i know.

I took the trouble to
investigate you before i came.

Thank you.

You make a specialty

of shadowing women,
i understand?

We have handled
some of the best cases.

Yes, yes. This is
a very confidential case

and requires
a special operative.

- 'One who is capable of, uh..'
- Uh-huh.

He must be a gentleman of tact,
of honesty.

- One who knows how to--
- I know who you want.

[Intercom buzzes]

(Hank)
'Yeah?'

- Hank?
- Yeah?

Come in my office right away,
will you?

(Hank)
'Okay.'

I got just the man
for your case.

[Door opens]

(J. Weems)
'A gentleman in every respect.'

- Please.
- Why, what's the trouble?

He won't do.

- Well, you've got me wrong.
- What do you mean?

The man i want ain't here.

I gotta send for him.

Find Davis.

I don't know where he is,
but find him.

It's a cinch.

[Door opens]

[Door closes]

Sit down. Don't be nervous.

Everything's
going to be alright.

(Joe) '311? Oh,
there's a raid in 412.'

'Yeah, okay.'

- Hiya, Joe.
- Yeah, don't get worried.

Okay.

210? Mr. Smith?
Desk clerk calling.

Sorry to bother you, but there's
a raid on the fourth floor.

Yeah. I thought
you might like to know.

[Door opens]

[Door closes]

[Door closes]

543? Mr. Smith?

There's a raid in 412.

Yeah, don't get worried.
Alright.

[Door opens]

[Door closes]

- Wanna wait, Mr. Smith?
- Hey, Joe.

Same room.

There's a raid in the hotel.

Fourth floor.

Okay.

601? Hello, Mr. Smith.
There's a raid in 412..

Fourth, please.

[Man whistling]

- Pardon me.
- I beg you to pardon me.

Okay.

Pardon me. Pardon me too.

(Male #2)
'Up or down, Mr. Smith?'

(All)
'Down!'

Well, governor,
there's your evidence.

- Hiya, Hank.
- Hi, George.

And i believed in you
and trusted you.

And now.

Haven't you got
anything to say at all?

You've been two-timing
your husband

with every tramp in town,
haven't you?

Well, i think he's a swell guy
and he deserves a divorce.

Goodbye, Mrs. Smith.

The boss wants you
at the office pronto.

What, again?

Someday i'm gonna find me
a nice monastery

where i'll never see
another scheming female

as long as i live.

[Door closes]

(J. Weems)
'Hello, Mac.'

'Have you heard from Davis?'

'Oh, yes.'

'Send him in right away.'

'Okay.'

He'll be in in just a minute,
Mr. Brooks.

[Door opens]

[Door closes]

(J.Weems)
'Good afternoon, Mr. Davis.'

Um, how have you been,
Mr. Weems?

Mr. Davis, Mr. Brooks.

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

If you two gentlemen
will excuse me

I'll leave you
to discuss the matter alone.

Scram.

[Door opens]

[Door closes]

- Sit down.
- Thanks.

- You wished to see me?
- Yes.

You, uh, know this woman?

That's one i've missed.

She's sailing tomorrow evening
for Havana.

- Why?
- That's the point.

I see.

Name, please?

Anne Vallee.

Anne Vallee.

- Yes.
- 'Miss or missus?'

Uh, miss.

'Suite 7C, Cuban Mail.'

- Santiago?
- Yes.

I'm, uh, i'm rather interested
in this young lady

and, uh, she's sailing alone.

'I thought it well
to have someone'

'who would protect her
against, uh'

'chance acquaintances,
emotional accidents.'

You see, she must have, uh,
companionship of some sort

and i prefer to have someone
in my employ

someone who could gain
her confidence and--

And find out
whether she's capable

of having those, uh,
emotional accidents.

No, no, certainly not.
I trust her absolutely.

- 'Well, who do you suspect?'
- No one.

- Or everyone?
- I, but--

Yes, i know, i know.

Your world
is built on, on chivalry

and the fair name of woman.

Mine isn't.

That's why you're here.

You want me
to find out something

that you yourself
don't even dare to think.

Alright. All i need

is an unlimited
expense account and time.

You'll, uh, send me report
every day?

I'll give you
my private address.

You'll be prepared to fly
to Cuba for the payoff?

The what?

Well, you wanna be in
at the kill, don't you?

Uh, i, i don't understand.

What i mean..
Seeing is believing.

Oh, yes, but there
will be absolutely

no necessity for that.

Well, just the same

you better keep
a suitcase packed.

This will cover
transportation and expenses.

Thanks very much.

[Door opens]

You will come to see me
in the morning

for final instructions.

Say, good afternoon, Mr. Brooks.

Good afternoon, Mr. Davis,
and, uh, thank you.

You're welcome.

When do we sail?

Oh, those rubber ears of yours

are gonna get you
into trouble someday.

- I always wanted to go to Cuba.
- Well, join the navy.

You got a big expense account
and i ain't busy.

Now listen, Hank, you're alright
for climbing in windows

and breaking down doors

but this isn't
that kind of a case.

I gotta go.

Oh, a dame?

Yeah, in a way.

Why don't you hire
a private detective?

Her sister's related

to Mickey Walker's
sparring partner.

You know one thing
about being a valet?

Who me?

Say, i'm the last word
in valets.

Well, you'll have to sleep

in the steerage
with the other servants.

Get me out of town
and i'll sleep with the anchor.

That's all, Lucille.
I'll finish the rest.

Very well, madam.

Now don't worry.

Our strategy can't fail.

I've planned it all as carefully
as a field marshal.

I suppose i better take
all these letters and papers

for the attorney down there
in case i--

Yes, of course.
Certainly, certainly.

Take everything and put them
away very carefully.

[Telephone rings]

Wait a minute.
That may be Maurice.

Hello?

Mrs. Brooks?
Who's calling, please?

Well, i'm sorry,
but she's not here.

She'll talk to me.

Just tell her who's calling.

I'm sorry, but i don't think
i can reach her.

She's sailing this evening
for Cuba.

Cuba?

Why, yes, of course.

Uh, what boat is she sailing on?

I'd like to send her
some flowers.

On the Cuban Mail.
The Santiago, i believe.

Yes, that's right.

Alright. Goodbye.

Is it alright?

Your dear Mr. Maurice
will be on that boat in person

or i don't know my men.

[Orchestra music]

[Foghorn blaring]

[Music continues]

(Hank) '"The well-trained
valet will always unpack'

"his master's baggage at once'

and hang his clothes.."

You did all this yourself?

All by my lonesome, boss.

"The well-trained valet
will always unpack

"his master's baggage at once

and hang his clothes on hangers
to avoid creasing.”

No.

I can see that you're gonna be
a great help to me.

Now go up on deck
and find the steward

and see that he places my chair

next to Miss Anne Vallee's
tomorrow.

It may cost you
a little extra money

but see that it gets there.

And pay him out of the
expense money i gave you.

Leave it to me, boss.

It's practically done.

[Door opens]

[Door closes]

May i see the passenger list,
please?

Certainly.

[Bell rings]

Thank you very much.

- Is this it?
- No.

I had five bags.
There are only four here now.

It's a small tan suitcase
about this size.

'The same kind of leather
as that one.'

- 'I tell you, it isn't here.'
- 'Very well, i'll look for it.'

I beg your pardon.
Is this what you're looking for?

Oh. Oh, yes, of course, it is.

Thank you so much.

It got into my stateroom
by mistake.

I was just on my way to return
it to the purser's office.

Oh, i am terribly sorry to have
caused you so much trouble.

Oh, quite alright.
No trouble at all.

Only..

Well, you can imagine
my embarrassment

when my valet opened it and i..

[Both laughing]

- How are you?
- How do you do, sir?

How do you know it
when you're 12 miles out?

By the passengers.

Make mine a big whisky
and a small soda.

'Just a minute, sir.'

- Is it gonna be rough?
- Yeah, i think it will be.

[Clock chiming]

So that's the drinking signal.
The bell.

Saved by the bell.

[Chuckles]

A blue diamond fizz,
not too much sugar.

- 'A what, madam?'
- 'Blue diamond fizz.'

(Dot)
'I don't want it too sweet.'

(Male #3) 'I don't think
i ever heard of that.'

'I can make you
a New Orleans fizz or--'

(Dot) 'Oh, the service on
this line is like a cattle boat.'

Well, if you give me an idea
what it's made of--

Never mind, never mind.

I'll have an ordinary
champagne cocktail.

You've heard of that,
haven't you?

(Male #3)
'Yes, madam.'

Tell me.
Is the Duke of Wessex aboard?

(Male #3) 'I don't think
he's with us on this trip.'

(Dot)
'Oh, perhaps it's just as well.'

The duchess gets so jealous
every time Robert speaks to me.

(Male #3)
'How is that, madam?'

Atrocious.

What kind of champagne?

(Male #3)
'Pol Roger 1915'

It would be on this tub.

I don't suppose you have
any Veuve Clicquot 1906?

(Male #3)
'I'm sorry.'

Well, can you change $100 bill?

(Male #3)
'No, madam, i can't.'

Really, this is intolerable.
How can you expect--

Pardon me. Uh..

Would you allow me, madam?

Allow you to do what?

I mean, uh, as long as
you have no small change on you

I thought i might sort of,
uh, buy you a drink.

Well, if you wish.

Are you, uh,
traveling by yourself?

Mm-hmm.

So am i. That's swell.

What's swell?

Nothing. Let's skip it.

[Cash register dings]

Ah, the bell again.

- Happy days.
- You're a droll person.

You said it.
A laugh a minute. That's me.

Never a dull moment
when i'm around.

- Oh, keep the change, my man.
- 'Thanks.'

Certainly, my good man.
Keep the change.

[Water lapping]

Here it is, miss.

Isn't there some place
i could be alone?

I'm sorry, miss,
but it's very difficult.

Well, you may move mine,
steward.

Doesn't matter to me
where i sit.

Well, i guess
this will be alright.

Please don't let me disturb you.

Uh, thank you, uh..

...Miss Vallee.

Not at all..

...Mr. Davis.

You know, this is twice that
you've been very nice to me.

That makes the score
two-to-nothing in your favor.

- Not quite.
- No?

No, i have a confession to make.

I had my chair
moved over here deliberately.

- Really?
- Yes.

The woman who sat next to me
talked too much.

- I see.
- I hope you don't mind.

No, no, no, not at all.

The feeling is quite mutual.

I love silence.

Hmm. Then the score's even.

[Clears throat]

[Clock chiming]

- Heigh-ho the bell.
- Cheerio.

What did you say your name was?

- Wales.
- Oh, not the--

Hank Wales, USA.

[Chuckles]
Well, as i was saying, Mr. Wales

a wealthy woman alone,
unprotected

knowing nothing of the world

everyone preys on her.

The rats.

But let's not talk about me
anymore.

Let's talk about you.

What business did you say
you were in?

Well, i'm, uh,
i'm associated with my father.

Your father?

Oh, and what does he do?

He's, uh, retired.

You don't say.
My father's retired too.

Now ain't that a coincidence?

Just a couple of lonely souls
whose parents have retired.

It's a sad thought.

[Bell dings]

Ah, the bell again.

- Uh, garçon?
- Yes, ma'am?

Two more.

Two champagne cocktails.

So you're going to Cuba
to look over

the family tobacco plantation?

Oh, what a bore.

But that isn't as bad
as our mines in Alaska

or our mahogany forest
in Yucatan.

Forest's odd though.

We had some spruce land
in Oregon

but father swapped them in
for a couple of old banks

just before he retired.

Oh, tell me, dear Mr. Wales

where is your family home?

Well, we sort of, uh,
move around.

Every fall, we go to the springs

and every spring,
we go to the falls.

[Laughs] Oh, you naughty,
naughty boy, you're spoofing.

You're spoofing me.

Oh, now remember,
i'm paying for this round.

Not a chance.
Don't even mention it.

I insist.
Can you change $100 bill?

- I don't think so, madam.
- Oh.

- Keep the change, my good man.
- 'Oh, thank you, sir.'

You must never offer to pay

for anything else again
when i'm around.

There hasn't been a gigolo

in the Wales' family
for generations.

Here we go,
laughing and scratching.

Here we go.

[Door opens]

- Join me in a cocktail?
- No, thank you.

- Pardon me.
- What is it?

Oh, who is that
good-looking man?

He's my valet.

He's always spying on me.

I wanted to fire him,
but he's been in the family

for years and years and years.

I'll see you tonight.

- See you later perhaps then?
- Perhaps.

Give me a straight whisky.

- Did you lose him?
- Lose him? Me?

Boy, the only way they get away
from me is to jump overboard.

I thought
you always went first-class.

What are you doing
with that slug?

Ah, the Depression hit me.

[Snaps fingers]
Come on, give.

Nix.

- Wait till we dock.
- Give.

Twenty champagne cocktails
at two bucks a smash

and about 30 bucks in tips.

And don't be holding out on me

or i'll switch him back
to whisky

at half a buck a snort.

You didn't get away with it,
my dear.

It doesn't look that way,
does it?

Just what do you think
you're going to do now?

I give in.

You win.

Smart girl.

Well, i haven't much money
with me now

but i'll manage to cash a check
as soon as we land.

Can i depend on that?

You have me cornered.
What else can i do?

You can add
an extra couple of thousand

to the original amount
for the expenses of this trip

and for trying to run out on me.

Meantime, maybe we can act
like human beings

and enjoy this little voyage
together.

You'll get your money
when i land and that's all.

(Neil)
'Another one, please.'

(Male #3)
'Yes, sir. Very dry.'

- What about that cocktail?
- Huh?

Make it two, please.
Sit down, won't you? Here.

So you've changed your mind.

- You do that often?
- Often.

What would you say if i asked
you to have dinner with me?

- I'd probably say no.
- Oh.

What's the matter?
Something wrong?

You know, i, i think
i'll tell you the truth.

There's a certain man
on this boat that i don't like.

Who, me?

- No.
-'Oh.'

Are you good at rescuing ladies?

Oh, yes.

- Who's the man?
- 'A stranger.'

So am i.

Yes, but you are the lesser
of two evils, Mr. Davis.

Thank you..

...Miss Vallee.

(Maurice)
'A clover club, please.'

[Clears throat]

- What about that dinner?
- Thanks.

[Indistinct reading]

Got my things ready?

The book says
the valet will place

'the necessary studs in shirts.'

Say, boss,
what's in a champagne cocktail?

Here, look in the book.

[Bell dings]

Oh, the bell.

I can't keep up
with that God-darn bell.

She has a lovely smile. Why..

Hmm.

[Applause]

[Orchestra music]

Nice tune, isn't it?

[Music continues]

Looking at the moonlight?

Stars?

No. I was listening
to the music.

It is a nice tune.

Funny thing.

Big boat

and all a little world
in itself.

A world made of steel plates.

A scant half inch between us
and the bottom of the sea.

Sounds dangerous.

It is dangerous.

Perhaps it's, it's a good thing

we're arriving at Havana
tomorrow.

But there will be moonlight
and music

and stars after tomorrow.

You want that?

I'm afraid not.

Not after tomorrow.

I was pretty good
at the waltz, too

but i never did like the rumba.

I think you have to be Spanish
to like it, don't you?

[Laughs]
Oh, really, you are a scream.

Isn't it romantic up here
in the moonlight and all that?

Yeah.

Oh, you do say
such utterly charming things.

(Hank) 'Say, that's
a swell hunk of ice.'

Oh, that? That's been
in my family for years.

Abraham Lincoln gave it
to my grandmother.

- A historical ruin, huh?
- What?

Not your grandmother, the ring.

Father gave it to me
when i graduated

from the convent last year.

Abraham Lincoln.
Now who'd have thought it?

[Foghorn blaring]

[Dot gasps]

Aye, your ring. I dropped it.

- You what?
- It went overboard.

My ring?
My beautiful, lovely ring.

Oh, my heart's broken.

[Sobs]
Oh, my ring, my ring.

Now wait a minute, Dot.
Don't get all hysterical.

Oh, what will father say?
He'll never forgive me.

I'll-i'll buy you
a new one in Havana.

- Oh, my..
- I'll buy you a bracelet.

Earrings.
The whole jewelry store.

Don't get sore at me.

- I gotta go.
- What's happened?

I gotta feed my goldfish.

- I love goldfish.
- No, you stay here.

My goldfish
is afraid of strangers.

[Applause]

Are you the kind of person
who always leaves

a little champagne
in the bottom of your glass?

Meaning what?

Meaning you're leaving
half a night full of moonlight..

...music..

...untouched.

Are you afraid
to empty the glass?

No, but i don't like hangovers.

[Orchestra music]

Goodnight, Mr. Davis.

Oh, goodnight, uh, Miss Vallee.
I, uh..

[Door opens]

[Door closes]

(Schuyler) '"10 a.m.,
conversation. 12:30 p.m., lunch.'

'"4 p.m., cocktails.
7 p.m., dinner.'

'"9 p.m., danced.
11 p.m., went to bed..'

'...alone."'

Huh.

[Foghorn blaring]

As soon as we dock,
i'll get a taxi and, uh--

You are very kind, but..

...I think
we better say goodbye here.

- I don't see why.
- Many reasons.

Won't you even let me
see you to your hotel?

[Foghorn blaring]

As a matter of fact,
i'm going to visit

a friend in a plantation
out of town.

That's funny. Uh, i'm headed
for a plantation too.

Really? Where?

Uh, just north of Havana.

Oh, that's too bad.

My friend,
they're just south of the city.

- Oh, i see.
- Goodbye, Mr. Davis.

Good luck, Miss Vallee.

[Foghorn blaring]

- Are all my bags here?
- Uh, yes, madame.

- Are they all tagged?
- Yes, Hotel Metropole.

- Any other wish, madame?
- That's all, thank you.

[Foghorn blaring]

- Did you get it?
- Yeah. Hotel Metropole.

That's where we go.
Send the bags ahead.

Okay.

- Hello, Hank.
- Hello, Dot.

- I'm very sorry, miss, but--
- What's the matter?

- Why, i-i--
- Oh, i have no change.

- Have you any money with you?
- Sure. How much do you need?

Fifty dollars.
Just a few telegrams, radio--

It's a pleasure.

- Oh, thank you, sir.
- What hotel are you going to?

- Hotel Metropole.
- What a coincidence. So am i.

Yeah? That's swell.
I'll see you later.

Hotel Metropole.

Hotel Metropole.

Hotel Metropole.

[Instrumental music]

[Soft music]

[Telephone rings]

[Music continues]

[Telephone rings]

- Hello?
- Greetings, my dear.

No, i'm not at the Metropole.
I couldn't afford it.

Though i've found
a very comfortable little place

just around the corner
where i can always be nearby.

I've already cabled New York.

The money should be here
in less than a week.

No, now please don't come here.

You'll spoil everything.

Call me in a day or so
and i'll have some news for you.

You know i can't run away again.
Where shall i run to?

Now don't be impatient, Maurice.

Goodbye.

[Instrumental music]

Hey, boss.
She just sent a cablegram.

- Where?
- Somebody in New York.

- I couldn't catch the name.
- Okay, beat it.

[Music continues]

- Are you you?
- I'm afraid i am.

I don't believe it.
You're supposed to be

with friends
on, on a plantation somewhere.

They, uh, they went fishing.

- Oh, fishing?
- Yes.

- They won't be back for a week.
- Hmm.

'But, uh,
where did your friends go?'

Fishing.

[Both laugh]

Let me see what you've got here.

Oh, that's awful. Take it away.

- Leave it there.
- That's terrible.

Take that away.
Take the whole thing away.

[Speaking in foreign language]

Never mind that.
Never mind that.

You idiot.
What am i going to do with you?

- Have dinner with me.
- What?

Yes. Bring that
table over here.

[Speaking foreign language]

Hope you don't mind.

Well, i don't see
what i can do about it.

Exactly. But i've ordered
something special

that i'm sure
you're going to like.

- Do you like squab?
- No.

'I thought so.'

Are we gonna start this
all over again?

No, we're going to go on
from where we left off.

You know, you're a most
annoying person, Mr. Davis.

I don't really know
what to say to you.

Call me Neil.
That's my first name.

- Alfredo, wine list, please.
- Si, señor.

Thank you very much.

There you are.

[Cork pops]

[Instrumental music]

[Glasses clink]

[Music continues]

(Dot) 'These things are
all so lovely, but that ring..'

'Oh, that's just too divine.'

- You like it?
- Yes, but..

Then it's yours.
Let's see that one.

It's simply exquisite.

But, Hank dear,
I couldn't accept

this kind of a present from you.

- Sure, you can.
- But think of my reputation.

- What would father say?
- I owe you this.

- Didn't i lose your other ring?
- Yes, but after all--

- You like it?
- I adore it.

Then we'll take it. How much?

Five hundred dollars.

[Mouthing]

Oh, a magnificent bargain, sir.
I assure you.

Why, the setting alone
is worth twice that.

You know,
i really shouldn't do this.

- Neither should i.
- Huh?

However..

You're such a sweet,
generous ducky-wucky.

Let's go
to some nice, quiet place

where i can really thank you.

Why not?

[Chuckles]

- Good day, my good man.
- Good day, madame.

Good day, sir.

Thank you so much.

I'd like to have you
come in again sometime.

[Door closes]

[Instrumental music]

Forgive me.

I had to do that.

Why?

Because you're lovely.

It would have happened anywhere.
Believe me.

This isn't going to work out
so well.

Don't..

...don't go.

It's been so beautiful.
Let's not spoil it.

Think how much more beautiful
it would be riding along..

- ...the old sea wall.
- Neil, please.

Or walking down
those old twisted streets

all full of moonlight
and guitars.

- I've got to go.
- Oh, don't.

Please don't.

[Door shuts]

[Instrumental music]

Room clerk, please.

Hello.

This is Ms. Vallee, room 212.

Have you another suite available
on a different floor?

Yes, thank you.

Could you move me right away?

Right now, yes.

Thank you so much.

[Receiver clacks]

[Typewriter clacking]

[Instrumental music]

[Paper ruffles]

"Sent cable to New York
this evening."

Did i get a cable
from Mrs. Brooks today?

- No, sir.
- Hmm.

I wonder who did.

- Another cold towel, sir?
- Bring a dozen.

Yes, sir.

[Sighs]

(Male #4)
'Just over here.'

[Sighs]
Uh, nothing else, señor?

Not a thing.
She'll be right out. Thank you.

[Speaking in foreign language]

[Clinking glasses]

Listen, young man, if you don't
quit cutting up didoes

on my front porch,
i'll call the manager.

[Slams door shut]

[Whistles]

[Thud]

Hey, Hank.
Hank!

Come on, get up.
Get up!

- What for? It ain't noon yet.
- She's gone.

- Who? Dot?
- 'No. Ms. Vallee.'

(Neil) 'She slipped
out during the night.'

'Now come on,
get your clothes on'

'and meet me downstairs
in the lobby.'

I'm all in.
I had a tough night.

You'll have a tougher day
if you don't get up.

I'm quitting
this detective racket, anyway.

- There's nothing in it, boss.
- You're what?

I'm going
where i'm really appreciated.

I'm gonna marry
about ten million bucks

and be a gentleman.

Say, how about wiring Brooks
for more expense money?

What? How much money
we got left, Mr. Treasurer?

Oh, plenty, plenty.

If we run short,
i'll supply the deficiency.

Oh, don't talk like a sap.

- Come on, get up.
- You think i'm kidding?

Last night she asked me
to manage her estates for her.

James, hand me my socks.

Why, i'll hand you a sock
if you don't get up.

Oh, she won't disappear.

You act like
you were stuck on the dame.

You sap.

Why don't you be like me?
Nonchalant.

Has Ms. Vallee gone out?

Look and see if the key
is there

will you, please?

Uh, no, sir.
She's not in.

What's her number? I-I'd like
to call her on the phone.

Uh, 621.

House telephone
is right across the lobby.

Thank you.

Any answer?

[Telephone rings]

- Tell him, uh..
- Yes, madame?

Tell him that i, uh..
Oh, no, don't tell him anything.

- Don't tell him anything.
- No.

- Yes, madame.
- Hello?

Do you realize
that i've been waiting for you

for over 15 minutes?

Now, this won't do at all.

Oh, how dreadful.
Please go right ahead.

No.
No, i don't eat lunch.

Uh, besides, i'm not dressed.

Fine, i'll be right up.

No, no, no, no.
Don't do that.

Oh, now, what do you wanna
hang around a hotel room for

when we can
get into one of those nice

old carriages
and ride along by the sea wall

palm trees rustling and..

Huh? Sure, they rustle.

It's absolutely impossible.

I tell you, i can't go.

No. No!

[Instrumental music]

- Quaint streets.
- Mm-hmm.

Genuine antiques.

(Anne) Discovered by
Columbus in 1492, huh?

[Both laugh]

How much longer
is this going to go on?

Oh, we'll be out of this
pretty soon.

- You're persistent, aren't you?
- Have you noticed that?

Who are you?
What are you?

- I'm your shadow.
- Huh.

- What an amusing occupation.
- Mm-hmm. I'm enjoying it.

Aren't you?

Well, you're doing
very well at it.

Amateur, or professional?

- What do you think?
- I don't know.

When did you start?

First day i saw you
on the boat.

You've been following me
ever since?

Why, sure. I've watched
every move you've made.

- Why?
- That's my business.

[Rattling]

- Ooh!
- Oh.

Tired?

No. I wouldn't have missed it
for the world.

It was worth coming
all the way down here

just to see you.

You're not afraid of me
anymore now, are you?

It's not you i'm afraid of.

Well, you sound as though

you were running away
from something.

I am.

A beautiful fugitive, eh?

Do you know men have died
over things like that?

It'll be dark
by the time we get back.

I'll order
a little Cuban twilight.

Do you mind?

Hey, Gus.

- The Hotel Metropole.
- Si, señor.

I've ordered dinner
on my balcony for exactly 7:30.

You're awfully sure
of yourself, aren't you?

You're not very sure
of yourself, are you?

[Typewriter clacking]

[Knock on door]

(Neil)
'Come in.'

Anne, you look gorgeous.

Sit down, won't you,
and i'll be with you

just as soon as i've finished
this love letter.

Love letters don't look so well
on a typewriter, you know.

Well, this is an elderly person

who wants to know
all my secrets every day.

- Send her my love.
- Oh, it's a he.

- Well, send him my love.
- Alright, i will.

[Speaks in foreign language]

[Clacking continues]

[Instrumental music]

Hey, Gus, or Pedro,
or whatever your name is.

- Pronto.
- You savvy Western Union?

- Si.
- Send that right away.

- Will you, please?
- Si, Señor.

Good boy.

[Instrumental music]

Here you are.

- What do you see?
- Beautiful, isn't it?

The house is so white

and way off there somewhere
is New York.

- Why mention that?
- 'Cause i'm conscious of it.

I feel it watching, waiting,
spying on everything i do.

Silly, isn't it?

Yes.
Very.

I have to go back
in a few days.

- Why?
- Because i must.

You know, Anne, sometimes
you're very mysterious.

Let's, let's have dinner in..

...in one of those strange
restaurants in the old town

shall we?

And forget New York?

And forget New York.

[Glasses clink]

Let's go.

[Instrumental music]

[Upbeat music]

[Music continues]

[Rattling]

[Music continues]

(Schuyler) '"Looks promising.
She is dining with me'

'"in my room this evening.
Stop.'

'"Here she is now. Stop.'

'She sends you her love. Joke."'

'"10:00 a.m., conversation.
12:30 p.m., lunch.'

"4:00 p.m., Cocktails.
7:00 p.m., Dinner.

9:00 p.m., danced.
11:00 p.m., went to bed alone."

[Scoffs]
Private detective indeed.

- You old fossil.
- She did it for me.

Good heavens,
what have i done to her?

Why didn't you tell me of this
before?

You wouldn't have understood.
That's why she went to Cuba.

And now you ought
to be ashamed of yourself.

I've got to get to her at once
before it's too late.

(Portia)
'Well, it serves you right.'

'Hiring a detective to see'

'if your wife is faithful.'

'I always said
you were an old fool.'

Please, please,
i must get to her.

Edward, get me the airport
on the telephone at once.

And get me Western Union,
please.

Right, sir.

If i can get a special plane
the first thing in the morning

will you go with me?

I wouldn't fly across the street
for any woman's honor.

[Foghorn blaring]

[Waves lapping]

Our last day, Neil.

I'm going back tomorrow.

To formal dinners,
boring teas and society.

I'd like to sink
every New York boat

in the harbor.

- I still have to go back.
- I'll go with you.

That's just it.
You can't.

Who's going to stop me?

Neil, i haven't been
very honest with you.

At first
it didn't matter much, but..

...i found something here that
i've always been looking for.

I can't go on with this
any longer.

Why don't you tell me
what it's all about?

Oh, i guess
there are plenty of women

married to one man, playing
around with another, but..

- Are you married?
- Yes.

Oh, i didn't know that.

To whom?

Ever hear of Schuyler Brooks?

Is he your husband?

Oh.

I see.

Now, you understand
why i have to go back alone.

But why are you so unhappy?

You see, Neil, six months
after i married Schuyler..

[Plane droning]

Well, that's the story.

There's still Maurice.

And a rotten blackmail plot.

Sounds like a nightmare,
doesn't it?

You called me a fugitive once.
Remember?

What makes you trust me
so much?

I don't know.
I just do.

(Hank) 'Let's get married right
away. What are we waiting for, huh?'

(Dot) 'Now, darling, you must
give me time to notify my family.'

'Think of the shock to father.'

'Why, he'd cut off my stipend.'

Oh, we can't let that happen.

Oh, you're such a lamb
and so good to poor little me.

Father will simply adore you.

By the way, speaking of father,
did your allowance check come?

Oh, well, uh, not yet

but as soon as it does,
i'm going to pay you back

all that money you loaned me
for my hotel bill.

[Door opens]

Oh, i, i beg your pardon.

What did you
have to come back for?

Well, i'm sorry,
but i-i live here.

- I wanna see you.
- Oh, me?

(Neil)
'Not you, dear.'

Come on, Hank.
I wanna see you.

That guy's getting in my hair.
I'm gonna fire him.

Oh, i wouldn't do that.

He's really
awfully good-looking.

Now, i am gonna fire him.

(Neil)
'This is Mr. Davis in 214.'

'Any messages for me, please?'

'A cablegram ?'

'Well, i didn't receive
any cablegram.'

'Oh, you gave it to Mr. Wales?'

I see.
Thank you.

I've been sort of busy today.

I guess i forgot
to give it to you.

Forgot to give it to me?

What a swell detective
you turned out to be.

Shh. Don't say anything
about me being a detective.

- 'She might hear you.'
- Detective?

(Hank) 'Then maybe
she wouldn't marry me.'

'I can always be a detective'

but i can't always marry
a million bucks.

"Arriving 6:30 this evening
by plane. Brooks."

You ain't sore at me, are you?

Oh, someday you're going
to drop dead

from brain fatigue.

Say, what's the matter with you?

You act like
you'd fallen for the dame.

- I have.
- Sucker!

Uh..

He's fired, honey.

[Plane droning]

[Engine whirring]

[Piano music]

[Knocking on door]

[Door clicks open]

[Piano music continues]

Neil, i didn't hear you.

You're right on time.

[Continues playing]

- Well?
- Anne.

What?

It's addressed to you.

He doesn't know you.

Or does he?

- Neil, does he?
- Yes, he does.

What?

He'll be here in a moment
and..

...I can't go through with it.

I can't.

What are you talking about?

Don't you realize what i am?

Can't you see that
ever since you left New York

I've been following you?

Don't you understand?

Neil.

Neil, you..

- Oh, no.
- Anne, i..

[Instrumental music]

Listen, Anne, all the while
we've been together

I've been a paid spy
in the employ of that man.

(Neil) 'Sent to follow you,
to make your acquaintance'

'and report your actions'

'and tell him what kind
of a woman you really are.'

'Now in a few moments, there'll
be a knock on that door'

and he'll walk in and find us.

I'm supposed to hold you
in my arms just as he walks in.

That's what
he paid his money to see.

But, Anne, i can't do it.

I'm not a private detective
anymore.

I'm not a sneak.

I'm just someone
who loves you.

Believe me, i do love you.

[Knock on door]

[Knocking on door]

[Door shuts]

[Door opens and shuts]

Maurice.

(Schuyler)
'Davis.'

- Mr. Brooks, uh..
- Why, yes, uh..

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

- Where is she?
- Oh, i, uh..

Why, she's in her room, alone.

Tell me quickly.
Is it too late?

You know what i mean.
You haven't, uh--

Oh, that.
Why, no

you've been quite mistaken
about Mrs. Brooks.

- Oh, then you know that she's--
- Yes. Yes.

Oh.
Well, i'll go to her--

No, just a moment,
just a moment.

Suppose she were to find out

that i was a private detective

hired by you to, uh,
well, to frame her--

She must never know that.

I depend upon you
to keep it a secret.

Well, then you must
let me see her first.

Three minutes is all i need
just to tell her

that i've been called away
and to say goodbye

and then
she won't be suspicious.

Then you can happen along

and-and she
won't be any the wiser.

Alright, alright,
but be quick about it.

- Alright. Just three minutes.
- Yes.

Maurice, stop it!
You're drunk!

- I'll take these to start with.
- Let go of me.

Neil.

- 'Ah, so that's the way it is.'
- Who is he? Quick.

- Maurice.
- I thought so.

Listen, your husband
is on his way here now

and he's got to find you alone.

You heard me.
Get out!

- What for?
- Why, i..

Uh..

Just as you wish.

Of course, if you were smart,
you'd realize

that if Mr. Brooks
catches you here

it's all over with you

and your little game.

You think so?

That's the trouble with you

amateur blackmailers.

You're always spilling
the beans too soon.

You're well informed,
aren't you?

That's my business.

- What is this? A frame-up?
- Yes, and you fell for it.

Listen, you mug, i've been
trailing you for weeks.

Now, that i found you,
i gotta let you go.

Not because i'm big-hearted,
but to save that woman.

Now i'll give you
30 minutes head start.

You haven't even got a warrant.

A warrant?
I've got a couple of cops

coming up here with Mr. Brooks.

And if you don't clear out
by that time..

[Knocking on door]

[Knocking on door]

Psst. Out that window
and across to the next room.

Quick.
It's a cinch.

I gotta go now.
Goodbye and good luck.

[Knocking on door]

- Wait a moment.
- What?

[Knocking on door]

Anne.

Anne, are you there?

Come in.

Anne.

This was what you paid
your money to see, wasn't it?

I wouldn't disappoint you
for anything, Schuyler.

- You double-crossing--
- Now, wait a minute.

You keep out of this.

My sister told me everything.
I came to take you back.

No, Schuyler.

I'm not going back with you
now, or ever.

You've destroyed what little
there was between us.

I tried to be fair

but you've hounded me
and spied on me

since the first day we married.

Then you deliberately
put someone in front of me

whom you thought that
i might fall in love with.

Hoping that i wouldn't because
you still wanted to keep me.

(Anne) 'And yet, down
in your dirty little mind'

'wondering if i would.'

But, Anne, you are my wife.

If your sister
told you everything

you know that i'm not your wife.

Yes, but my lawyer
can arrange all that.

(Anne) 'You don't believe
in evidence, do you?'

- Evidence?
- Yes.

What you saw when you came
into this room is true.

- Mr. Brooks--
- I'll pay you off.

- Now, please get out.
- I'm sorry.

You don't owe me a thing.

- As long as Anne has seen fit--
- Shut up.

I picked you up out of nothing.

You can go back to nothing
for all i care.

[Door shuts]

I don't know what to say.

I, i feel that i am to blame
for the whole mess.

No one's to blame.

It just had to happen,
i guess.

Funny thing.

We worry and struggle

and try to work out
our little problems..

...and all of a sudden,
it's over..

[Snaps fingers]
...like that.

It just doesn't seem possible.

Hello, Mr. Brooks.
How have you been?

- Fancy meeting you here.
- Why, you, you..

Get out of my way.

Mm, that's life.
Here today, gone tomorrow.

[Siren wailing]

It's Maurice.

Oh.

Oh, how awful.

Listen, Anne, the police
will be here in moments.

They'll want explanations
and we'll have to give them.

Where are those documents?
Quick.

Hurry.

They're right here
where i left them.

There you are.

(Neil) 'Where's that suicide
note you told me about?"

'Well, here it is.'

'"Dearest, Anne,
life holds nothing for me'

'"but humiliation and poverty.'

I prefer to die by my own hand.
Maurice."

That's what i need.
