All language subtitles for The Awful Truth (1937).ENGa

Come on, Hank.
Get that sunlamp ready.

About 15 minutes is the most I'd advise,
Mr. Warriner.

Aw, 15 minutes, nothing.

I gotta get a deep Florida tan
if it takes all afternoon.

Give 'er the gun.

All aboard for Miami, Palm Beach,
and points south.

- Hiya, Jerry.
- Hello, Frank.

- Heard you in here. How goes it?
- Fine.

- Thought you'd like to play a little squash.
- No, no, thanks.

Say, you're awfully white-skinned
for a guy who just had two weeks in Florida.

Yeah, that's what / thought.

What'd you do down there, carry a parasol?
Or didn't you go?

Ah-ah-ah-ah.
Don't go spreading that around, Frank.

Uh-huh. Pulling a fast one
on the little wife, eh?

Now, look, Frank, I'm surprised at you.

I'm supposed to have been in Florida.

Now, supposing
one of Lucy's friends says to her,

"Well, why isn't he tanned?"

Lucy's gonna be embarrassed.

Well, I'm gonna be tanned
and Lucy's not gonna be embarrassed.

And what wives don't know won't hurt them.
And what you don't know won't hurt you.

All right. I don't want to know.
Anyhow, how about coming by the house?

A bunch of us were out late last night
and they're coming by for a late breakfast.

Hey, I got a better idea. Why don't you come
over to my place for egg nogs and breakfast?

And maybe later this afternoon,
we can duck the women and play some golf.

- Swell, boy. You got me convinced.
- Okay.

- See you later, Jerry.
- So long, Frank.

Come on in.

Hey, Lucy!

Lucy!

That man is here!

Maybe she wasn't expecting you.

Oh, no, she's around somewhere.

Put your things down anywhere.

- Hello, Celeste.
- Hello, Mr. Warriner.

- You're looking well.
- Thank you, Celeste.

And vice versa.

Celeste, where's Mrs. Warriner?

Look what I brought her
all the way from Florida. Where is she?

- She's out.
- She's out?

Mmm. Well, never mind, Celeste.

Go and get some egg nogs
and we'll find something to drink to.

- Come on, gang, enter.
- We certainly will.

Hmm.

Mr. Smith! Look who's here!

Come on, Come on, boy, up! Attaboy!

You get my postcard?
Say, where's Mama?

Hey, look, look, I got something for you.
Look, look, look.

Ah! Come on, come on, get it.

Come on. Come on, boy.

Go on. Go get it. Go on.

What are you doing, reading my mail?

Several letters there for your wife.

Yesterday's too.

Hmm.

I hope Lucy comes back
looking as well as you do.

Well, she's probably
up at her Aunt Patsy's.

She always goes up there
when she gets lonely.

Thank you, Celeste.
I'll take it up from here.

- Jerry.
- What?

Suppose her Aunt Patsy wasn't home.

I get it. I'm up to my neck
in funny people, huh?

No, seriously, I wish Lucy would go out
and get some fun for herself now and again.

Do her good.

That's the trouble
with most marriages today.

People are always imagining things.

The road to Reno is paved with suspicions.

The first thing you know,
they all end up in a divorce court.

The broad-minded man from the Rio Grande.

I know.

But if you think I'm gonna get a chance to prove
my broad-mindedness any minute, you're crazy.

No, Lucy's really up at her Aunt
Patsy's cabin. I'd bet on it.

Incidentally, what a swell spot that is.

Oh. Good fishing.

Sometimes on a clear day,
across that lake you can see for...

You can...

Um... Mmm.

Uh...

Uh, um, Mrs. Barnsley,

Miss Heath, Mr. Barnsley,
and Mr. Randall, uh...

Aunt Patsy.

Any idea where Lucy is?

Do you know she invited me to this...

Well!

Darling!

Hello, dear!

Oh, how grand and brown you are!

- Hello, Patsy dear. Did you miss me?
- Gee, it's good to see you.

- Been thinking about me?
- You bet. Look what I brought you.

- Oh, all the way from Florida?
- Yeah.

Bless your heart!

Oh. You know Armand Duvalle, dear.

Come on in, Armand.

Mr. Duvalle, this is my aunt, Miss Adams,

Mr. and Mrs. Barnsley,
Miss Heath, and Mr. Randall.

Well, if we haven't had
the nาost terrible tinาe.

Armand's car broke down last night
a million miles from nowhere

and we had to stay at
the nastiest little inn you ever saw.

No modern conveniences at all.
It was dreadful.

We were on our way home
from the junior prom.

A pupil of Armand's invited us.

And, oh, well, it's a long story,
but I must...

Hello there. Hello, boy.

You know, your wife, oh, she was
the loveliest woman in the party.

Oh, Armand, you always say
the nicest things.

Here... Well, isn't that cute?
You bring him that, dear?

- Yes.
- Go on, catch it. Go on, catch.

Were you disappointed
when I wasn't here, darling?

Not at all.
After all, you didn't expect me.

And, um, you'll forgive me
for my car's imperfect performance?

Why, of course. I'm sorry the inn
was so, uh, inconvenient.

That's the only thing that bothers me.

You know, your husband
is not like the average American man.

No, no, he is free of all mean suspicion.

Yes, he has more the...

the continental mind, yes?

Mmm, yes, that's right.
I have a continental nาind.

- Will you have an egg nog?
- Oh, thank you.

Huh.

Well, I don't know what kind of a mind
Jerry's got, continental or cockeyed,

but he's a wonder.

Now, if I stayed out all night

and came waltzing in
with the handsome Mr. Duvalle

and said the car broke down...

It did. Why should Jerry be angry?
I didn't build the car.

You're perfectly right, dear.

Of course I am.

Can't have a happy married life if you're
always going to be suspicious of each other.

Right again. Mm-hmm.

- Little nutmeg?
- Please, please.

But I don't know why
I'm boring all of you with private matters.

Oh, we're not bored.

No one's interested in my night's adventure
except Jerry,

and he knows it's innocent
just as well as he knows that...

Well, that he
just got back from Florida.

I... I see what you mean.

Uh, more drinks, everybody?
There's lots left.

No, no, no, thank you.
I think we'd better be going.

Well, you don't all have to go, do you?

Go?

- No.
- Oh. Hmm.

- Well, it's silly to go so soon.
- We must go, really.

Aunt Patsy dear, where are you going?
I haven't even had a chance to talk to you.

I'll see you later, my dear.

I always say, four's a crowd.

- Four's a cr...
- Well, there's something in what she says.

Thank you.

Say, are you hungry?

Well, to tell you the truth, I'm starved.

Well, why don't you go out
and grab yourself a bite.

A big, strong fella like you
ought to take care of himself.

Why, Mr. Warriner, what have I done?

If you speak of last night, I assure you...

- Jerry, you don't believe...
- We'll discuss it in private.

That is, if Mr. Duvalle can remember
where we keep our door.

Jerry!

Well, in all fairness you should permit me
to remain and explain ourselves.

Well, American women
aren't accustomed to gallantry, Armand.

I appreciate your offer,
but maybe you had better go.

Oh, pardon me, Mrs. Warriner.
You misunderstand.

I am a voice teacher, am I not?

- For one year she has been my pupil.
- Hmm.

And from time to time
I pat her on the back.

- Oh, that's nice.
- I mean, I-I congratulate her on her, uh...

- development.
- Is that so?

- Do I express myself?
- Oh, yes, you've been doing all right.

But now my position must be considered.

I have never yet been in a scandal.

- Never been caught, huh?
- No.

I am a great teacher, not a great lover.

That's right, Armand. No one could ever
accuse you of being a great lover.

- Huh?
- Hnาnา?

That is, I mean to say, well...

Well, who's to say whether you are or not?
It's all so silly.

But maybe you had better go.

I really don't know what to say.

Yeah, well, if you go,
you won't have to say anything, will you?

- Perhaps it is best this way, Mrs. Warriner.
- I think so. Yeah, I think so.

- I will see you soon?
- Yes.

It has been all so perfect.

Thank you for everything.

Take another bow.

That wasn't a bad performance,
considering no rehearsals or anything.

Why, Mr. Warriner,
you are out of your continental mind.

That was funny at that,
what he said about your continental mind.

Oh, undoubtedly he has
a better sense of humor than I have too.

Oh, no, no.
I beg to differ with you there.

Right now you're twice as funny
as he ever thought of being.

- Quit stalling, Lucy.
- Well, I'm not trying...

Or perhaps our marriage
doesn't mean anything to you.

- Oh, but it does.
- Perhaps you have no sentiment left for me.

Look at this.

Look. A letter I wrote you.

But did you care when you read it?
No. No.

You knew there'd be
a letter from me every morning,

but you were far too busy
with Armand Duvalle to give it a thought.

It's enough to destroy
one's faith, isn't it?

Oh, I haven't any faith left in anyone.

I know just how you feel.

Mmm. What do you mean?

You didn't happen to mention it
in any of your letters

what a terrible rainy spell
they were having in Florida.

- The papers were full of it.
- Oh.

Well, uh... Well, I can explain that, Lucy.

- You can?
- Yeah. And don't try to change the subject.

You think a great offense
is a great defense.

Don't try to justify your behavior
by insinuating things about me.

But I haven't any behavior to justify.
I've just been unlucky, that's all.

You've come home and caught me in a truth,

and it seems there's nothing
less logical than the truth.

Mmm, a philosopher, huh?

- You don't believe me.
- Oh, how can I believe you?

"The car broke down." People stopped believing
that one before cars started breaking down.

- Well, his car's very old.
- Yeah, well, so's his story.

- Let me tell you something...
- No, let me tell you something.

I've told you the truth
about all this, Jerry.

Don't you see that...
There can't be any doubt in marriage.

The whole thing's built on faith.

If you've lost that,
well, you've lost everything.

Yes, I suppose when that's gone
the marriage is washed up, isn't it?

- Do you mean that?
- Uh-huh.

- All right, then that settles it.
- Well, I guess it does.

I wouldn't go on living with you
if you were dipped in platinum.

So go on, divorce me.
Go on, divorce me. It'll be a pleasure.

Divorce you? Are you crazy?

Do you think
I'd drag that music lover into court

to show people the man you prefer to me?

All right, then I'll divorce you. I believe it's
customary anyhow for the wife to bring suit.

It has something to do with the husband
being a gentleman, if you know what I mean.

Oh, never mind that stuff.
Just get on with the divorce proceedings.

- I can hardly wait.
- I'll call up our lawyer right now.

All right, here.

If you don't mind my using him.
I don't know anyone else.

- You get around so much more than I do.
- Is that so?

Hello?

Hello, Lucy.

What's that? Divorce?

You and Jerry?

Now, now, Lucy, don't do anything in haste
that you might regret later.

Marriage is a beautiful thing,
and you should give it every...

Why can't they call you back
after we've finished eating?

Please be quiet, will you?

You seem agitated, Lucy.
Try and calm yourself.

I hate to see you take any hasty action
in a matter like this.

- Marriage is a beautiful thing, and...
- Why don't you finish your meal?

- Why can't they call you back later?
- Please shut your mouth!

As I was saying, Lucy,
marriage is a beautiful thing,

and when you've been married
as long as I have, you'll appreciate it too.

Your food is getting ice-cold.
You're always complaining about your food.

- How do you expect me to...
- Will you shut your big mouth!

I'll eat when I get good and ready,

and if you don't like it
you know what you can do.

So shut up!

Lucy darling,
marriage is a beautiful thing.

Now, you see? Because you was a naughty dog,
they made you leave the room. Come on.

In the case of Warriner v. Warriner,

the court grants
an interlocutory decree of divorce

in favor of the plaintiff, Lucy Warriner.

The divorce, if not further contested,
will become final 90 days from this date.

The plaintiff and the defendant will then
be at liberty to make other marriages,

if such be their desire.

Uh, one moment, Your Honor.
There's a matter still unsettled.

The matter about, um, uh...

- Mr. Smith.
- Uh, yes, Your Honor. Mr. Smith.

- Who is Mr. Smith?
- Uh, Mr. Smith is their dog.

Uh-huh. Mr. Smith is my dog.

- Is that so?
- Uh, silence!

But you see, Mr. Smith belongs to me
and she has him.

Very well. Go ahead with the matter.

The animal is now in the possession
of Mrs. Warriner.

It was he whom you ordered from the courtroom
at the beginning of the trial for contempt.

Mr. Warriner wishes to have him
because, uh...

- Because he's mine.
- He is not.

Oh, he is too.

- He is not.
- Silence!

Is not.

Mrs. Warriner,
will you step up here and tell me

why you persist in regarding the dog
as your personal property

in order that the court may decide whether
or not he is to remain in your possession.

Nothing would please me more.

Your Honor, I saw Mr. Smith first.

It was in that pet shop on Madison Avenue.
You know the one I mean.

Oh, you don't? It's between 47th and 4...
Or is that...

It's frightfully immaterial.

Well, you oughta know.

Anyway, I decided to buy Mr. Smith,

but I turned away for just a moment
to look at a Persian kitten.

Do you like cats?

I don't either.

So I turned right around again, and here was
this man holding Mr. Smith in his arms.

"Pardon me," I said,
"but I'm buying this puppy."

And then he just smiled at me.

And then somehow, all of the sudden
the three of us were having lunch together...

the man and Mr. Smith and I.

And then things began to happen
rather swiftly,

and finally I said,
"Well, I think we'd better get married."

And we did, and that way we were able
to give Mr. Smith a better home

and live happily ever after.

- U-Until now.
- I see.

Well, in these custody cases,
Mrs. Warriner,

we frequently allow the final decision
to rest with the party in question.

You mean, Mr. Smith?

Send for the dog.

Custody of the dog
will depend on his own desires.

- Mr. Warriner, will you step up here, please.
- Yes, Your Honor. Excuse me.

Unfasten him.

You may each call the dog.

- Mr. Smith. Hey, come on. Come on, boy.
- Schmitty. Schmitty. Schmitty!

- Boy, look up here. Look. Schmitty. Schmitty.
- Come on, fella. Aw, come on.

- Schmitty. Mr. Smith. Look up here.
- Come on, boy. Hey. Come on, fella.

- Boy!
- Don't pay attention to that. Come on, boy!

- Look up here. Look up here.
- Come on, Smith.

- You know me.
- Come on, boy! Come on, boy!

You don't wanna miss
those fishing trips. Come on!

Schmitty! Schmitty! Schmitty!

- Look up here.
- No, don't... Come on!

- Schmitty. Schmitty!
- Schmitty!

- Schmitty! Ah!
- Hey, listen...

I win, don't I?

Custody of the dog
is awarded to Mrs. Warriner.

- Well!
- Your Honor, I don't think that's quite fair.

I ought to be able to see the dog
twice a month or something.

- I'll take it under advisement.
- Good-bye.

Good-bye.

Good-bye, Your Honor.

- You won't forget to do that, will you, Judge?
- I'll take it under advisement.

Yes, but when will you know?

Mmm. Look at that rain.

Why? Is it doing anything besides falling?

I don't think so.

Nothing unusual ever happens around here.

Oh, Patty, I'm sorry
you're so bored tonight.

Why tonight? I've been bored for a month.

If I'd known we were going to be
buried side by side,

I never would've taken
this apartment with you.

Well, I wouldn't have asked you
to come and live with me if I'd known that...

that a sort of, uh, readjustment
takes place after divorce.

Mmph. "Readjustment," my foot.

That's just another word
for "moping around."

Oh, don't be silly.

Anyhow, where can two women go alone?

You know dozens of men who would turn
handsprings at the chance to take you out.

Here I've got you all dressed up,
ready to go out,

and you weaken and refuse.

Ah, you're just an old grouch, that's all.

I want to go where there's life,
and I don't mean plant life.

I want to go to the theater, you know,

and go places later
and step around and do things.

- Well, you can't go in all this rain.
- Why not?

- No taxis?
- No escort.

Well, unless there's a new ruling,
I don't need an escort to get a drink.

I'm going down to the bar and see Joe.

Bartender or no bartender, he's still a man.
Maybe he knocks off early.

Oh, Patty, you wouldn't!

I wouldn't, eh?
You're talking to a desperate woman.

Hello, Schmitty.
Come on up, boy. Come on.

Come on, come on. Isn't he cute?

Too bad he can't wear a top hat.

Did you hear what she said?

♪ Oh, give me a home ♪

I wonder if you'd do me a favor.

Well... Well, of course, that all depends.

I never talk...

Imagine your living right
across the hall from us all of this time.

I think it's just wonderful
that we've met this way.

Yeah.

Uh, Lucy, may I present Mr. Leeson.

Mr. Leeson, this is my niece
you were so anxious to meet.

Her name is Lucy Warriner.

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

- Won't you sit down?
- Thanks.

Mr. Leeson's just from Oklahoma, Lucy.
He's a stranger in town.

He'd take it as being real neighborly of us
if we show him some of the bright spots.

Oh, he would?

Well, it's raining awfully hard.
I don't think...

That's just exactly what I said.
I said I don't think the rain will stop us.

Besides, I think it'll let up
in a few minutes, Miss Warriner.

Mr. Leeson's a neighbor of ours. He lives
just across the hall with his mother.

- Isn't that what you said? With your mother?
- That's right. With my mother.

We're here on a visit.
I'm in oil, you know.

Marinated, so to speak.

Say, that's a good one!

I gotta remember to tell that to my mother!

Mr. Leeson, won't you tell us
something about Oklahoma?

Well, Oklahoma's pretty swell.

I got quite a ranch down there.

Like to have you see it sometime,
Miss Warriner.

Oh, well, I don't get out there very...

I got cattle and horses
and chickens and alfalfa and...

- Hello, Jerry.
- Hello, Patsy, old girl. How are things?

Uh, we weren't expecting you.

Why? What goes on, huh? Mm-hmm.

Hiya, fella! Hello, Mr. Smith!
How you been, huh?

I'll see you in a minute, boy. Yeah, sure.

Hello, Jerry.

- Hello, Lucy.
- What might you be doing here?

Oh, now, don't tell me you've forgotten
this is my day to visit Mr. Smith.

- It says so right there.
- What...

Oh. I'm so sorry.
Mr. Leeson, this is my husband.

Oh, uh, I didn't know...

Oh, he's only my husband for...
How much longer is it now? Sixty days?

- Fifty-nine.
- Ah, that's better.

Only 59 days.

Don't worry about him.
He has a continental mind.

- Yes.
- Oh.

Well, uh... hi there.

- Excuse me. What did you say?
- I say I'm glad to know ya.

How can you be glad to know me?

I know how I'd feel if I was sitting
with a girl and her husband walked in.

I'll bet you do.

You know, I don't think you ought to go
around telling people you're not married.

He looks like a nice sort of fella.
How do you think he feels?

Why don't you go and play with the dog.

Why don't you go, uh...
on with whatever you were doing.

I'm gonna... Don't mind me.

Hello, fella. Come on, come on.

Any new dogs in the neighborhood?

Been chasing any cats?

Come on, sit down, Mr. Leeson.

- Tell me some more about Arizona.
- Uh, Oklahoma.

I mean, Oklahoma.
That's me for you.

Hey, is he getting enough to eat lately?
He doesn't look very well.

Well, you don't look so hot yourself.

I don't think he's getting enough exercise.
He's got circles under his eyes.

Okay.

- The court ruled he could visit every so often.
- What about a tune, boy?

Yes, there's nothing we can do about it.

- No?
- No.

But don't mind that, Mr. Leeson.
Go right ahead.

Attaboy. Get onto it!

Uh, of course my main business is oil.

- Oil.
- Yes.

Take it!

Well, I've done pretty well.

I have my ranch. My hobby is horses.

I get it. Hobby horses.

Come on. Let's get out of here.

- Good-bye, Jerry.
- Uh, good-bye, Warriner.

What's the matter?

Are you sure you don't like that fella?

Like him? You saw the way
I treated him, didn't you?

Oh, that's what I mean.

Back on my ranch I got a little red rooster
and a little brown hen,

and they fight all the time too.

But every once in a while they make up again
and they're right friendly.

♪ Oh, give me a home
Where the buffalo roam ♪

- Morning, Ma.
- Well, what about it?

- It was almost daylight when you came in.
- I had the most wonderful time.

- I met a girl that...
- That's what I thought.

- You keep your mind off women.
- I can't, Ma.

You can't, eh?
That's what your father always said.

Well, of course I like Dan Leeson.
Why shouldn't I? He's sweet and thoughtful.

You should be the last one to object.
You introduced him to me.

Only because he was a man
who could take us out.

I didn't expect you
to get silly about him.

Well, is there anything wrong in liking a man
who's sane and considerate?

I was married to one
who was insane and inconsiderate.

Your toast is burning.

- What's her name?
- Lucy Warriner.

Probably an alias or somethin'.

You're gonna laugh at yourself for talking
that way about Lucy when you meet her.

She won't want to meet me.

She knows that any other woman
could see right through her.

Wish you wouldn't talk that way
about Lucy, Ma. I'm crazy about her.

I believe she kinda likes me too.
Ma, I think I'm in love.

Do you know what "rebound" is?

That business of trying to get over one love
by bouncing into love with somebody else?

It's fine, except the rebound
is rarely the real thing.

As a matter of fact, it's the bunk.

There's the first bounce,
and the second bounce, and...

Well, look at me.
You wind up like an old tennis ball.

Well, I'm serious about Dan Leeson.
I like him. I like him very much.

I'm all through with Jerry.
He doesn't mean a thing to me.

I don't love him,
and what's more, I probably never did.

I'm sure I never loved him.
And now I hate him.

That surprises you, doesn't it?

I hate Jerry Warriner,
and I like Dan Leeson very, very much,

and I hope he's just crazy about me because
I think he's the finest nาan I ever nาet.

I know. My toast is burning.

Say, you're awful sweet and all that,

but y'always seem to have your mind
on somethin' else.

Or maybe it's someone else.
Is it, sugar pie?

Oh, no, no. I'm in love with love.

- Mm-hmm.
- Oh.

In the spring, a young man's fancy
likely turns to, uh...

what's he's been thinking about all winter.

How long you been talking
like Amos and Andy, huh?

Oh, for quite some time.

I got wise to the fact
that it helps me in my work.

So, as long as I live for my work,
y'all'l have to pardon my Southern accent.

Well, shut my mouth.
Who's that gorgeous-lookin' creature?

Hmm?

Well, have you heard that gag
that's been flying around town lately?

"Who was that lady I saw you with?"

Oh, you mean,
that's no lady, that's your wife?

Mm-hmm.

You know, I like this place
best of all the spots we been to.

- You do?
- Maybe it's because I'm so happy.

Just think of it, Lucy.
You're gonna be my wife.

Yes, I am thinking of it.

I've hoped for it
ever since that first night I met you.

I can hardly wait
for your final decree to come along.

It'll come along, Dan.

Incidentally, um,
h-here's my husband coming along.

- Well, hello, folks!
- Hello.

Uh, this is Dixie Belle Lee.
This is Mrs. Warriner.

And this is Mr. Leeson, the gentleman
that Mrs. Warriner is going to marry.

- How do you do?
- Mighty fine meetin' you all.

Well, come along.

Now, uh... Now, you're sure
we're not intruding.

Uh, what do you mean?

Wouldn't you like us to have a drink?

Oh, uh, why, yes, of course.

Just sit down.

My, isn't this cozy?

So, um... So you two
are going to be married.

I was glad to hear that.

I said to myself,
"That Leeson's just the man for Lucy."

- And then I said to myself...
- He's always talking to himself.

- It's a charming place, don't you think?
- Do you really like it, honey?

- Uh-huh.
- I'm so glad.

- I almost feel like the place is mine.
- You come here often?

I work here. Didn't y'all know that?

Oh, no.

You're from the South, aren't ya?

Well, now, isn't he
just the cleverest gent?

How'd y'all ever guess that, Mr. Man?

I don't know.
It was just a shot in the dark.

But Dixie Belle Lee isn't her real name.

- Oh, no?
- Oh, no, no.

She changed it, you see, because her family
objected to her going into show business.

Isn't that right?

Yeah, my folks really thought I was goin'
to the dogs when I decided to go to work.

I'll sure you'll be a big success,
and then they'll be proud of you.

Well, thank you.
It's real nice of you to say that.

I guess I better go now and get ready.
Reckon y'all can stay and see my act?

- Oh, of course we'll stay.
- Nothing could drag us away.

See ya later, honey child.

- She seems like a nice girl.
- Yes, indeed.

But enough about Dixie Belle for the moment.
Let's talk about yourselves.

Ah, so you're gonna live in Oklahoma,
eh, Lucy? How I envy you.

Ever since I was a small boy,
that name has been filled with magic for me.

Oklahoma.

We're gonna live right in Oklahoma City.

Not Oklahoma City itself!

Lucy, you lucky girl.

No more running around the night spots.

No more prowling around in New York shops.

I shall think of you every time
a new show opens and say to myself,

"She's well out of it."

New York's all right for a visit,

- but I wouldn't want to live here.
- But you wouldn't want to live here.

I know I'll enjoy Oklahoma City.

But of course.

And if it should get dull, you can always
go over to Tulsa for the weekend.

I think a big change like that
does one good, don't you?

That's right.

Say, I know this isn't quite the place,

but Lucy tells me you two own a coal mine.

- What about it?
- Oh, uh, yes.

Uh, Mr. Leeson thought that maybe
he'd like to buy your interest.

That is, if the price is right.

I-I was telling Mr. Leeson...

I mean, Daniel...

About how badly we were doing,

and he thought that maybe
he could do better with it.

Hmm. I suppose you told him
there wasn't any coal in it too.

Well, if you're interested, you might
bring me round the data tomorrow.

I'm very lucky.

You know
what they call me back home?

Daniel.

I can guess.

That'd go great out west.

Seemed to go pretty well
with the cowboy here.

You, uh, wanna change the subject?

Look, why don't you two get up and dance.
Or don't you dance?

Uh, Lucy doesn't care much about dancing.

Didn't you know that?

Look, did Lucy tell you that?

She's holding out on you.
She's a beautiful dancer.

Why, I used to call her "Twinkle Toes."

Hello, Twinkle Toes.

Have you been foolin' me,
you little rascal?

Well, to tell you the truth, Dan,
I didn't think you cared much about it.

Care about it? Why, I could dance
till the cows come home.

I've won several cups at it myself.

We never won any cups.

Maybe you had the wrong partner.

Yeah, there's a lot in what you say.

- Can I have this waltz, Lucy?
- Oh, of course.

- Yes, sir.
- Give this to the orchestra leader.

Tell him to play the same number again
for an encore.

Yes, sir.

More!

- Thanks. Never had a lesson in my life.
- You don't say.

- Have you?
- Well, uh, yes.

Let's sing another one.

That must be him now.

- Hello, Warriner.
- Hello, Leeson.

- Hello, Lucy.
- Hello, Jerry.

- Glad you dropped up.
- Thanks.

I really am very much interested
in that mine of yours.

Yes, well, I've brought along
all the records and history of the...

You know, funny thing. I've looked all over
for McCall's report on that mine.

I can't find it anywhere.
You must have it.

- Maybe I have.
- Do me a favor, will you.

The next chance you get,
look through your stocking drawer.

She always hides important things
in the top drawer of her dresser.

- She does?
- Oh, yes, yes.

Every legal paper we had
smelled of sachet.

It did?

Even the marriage certificate.

Say, remember when the clerk
asked to see it and you couldn't find it?

We had a bunch of pals at the hotel.

They kept ribbing us all night.

Remember when they sent the bellboy?

Gosh, we didn't want ice water.

- Oh?
- Mm-mmm.

Um, what's the matter?

Oh, well, when you two are married
the three of us can talk more freely.

Now about this mine business.

You know, this place was formerly
owned by the Fullerton brothers.

They, uh... They...

Hmm.

You, uh... You've, uh... You've heard
of the Fullerton brothers, haven't you?

Oh, yes.

Well, it seems they didn't know much
about the mining situation in Pennsylvania.

Their racket was mainly...

Oh, hello, Ma!

- Hello.
- Hello, Mrs. Leeson.

Hello, Lucy.

Ma, this is Mr. Jerry Warriner.

- Not, uh...
- Yes, ma'am, that's right.

We've got a little business proposition
we've been discussing.

Oh, I see.

- It's funny seeing you.
- It is?

Well, it's funny seeing you.

Well, what I mean is,

I was at a tea this afternoon
where some people were speaking of you.

- Oh.
- And of Lucy too.

They knew you both,
uh, before the divorce.

I imagine you'll run into dozens of people
who knew us before the divorce.

Ah, yes, yes.
We used to get around quite a lot.

Didn't we?

Well, they spoke very well of you.

They said you were a real gentleman.

- Oh, now, did they, really?
- Oh! Good for you!

And they were talking of Lucy too.

You know, you do sing divinely, dear.

But I'd never realized till this afternoon
that you'd had a teacher.

And a very handsome one, I understand.

Do you know, Lucy,
there was a woman there...

If I hadn't been a lady,
I would have slapped her face.

- Well, why didn't you?
- I wish I had, because she insinuated...

Well, as a matter of fact, she...
she didn't even insinuate.

Well, she was talking
about your divorcing Mr. Warriner.

Well...

Well, she came right out and said
that it should have been...

Well...

Well, no matter, no matter.

Mmm. No matter, no matter.

"No matter."

Let's get down to business, eh, Leeson?
Yeah. Mm-hmm.

If I'd had time to work this mine myself,
I could have made a fortune.

But I was always too busy
making money for other people.

Yes, a whole section up there
is simply crying for someone to go in

who has the time and money to give it.

Mm-hmm.

I think if you could sink a shaft
in this north corner, right about here...

Wait a minute.
Let me show you something.

I think I ought to tell you, Jerry,
nobody's listening to you.

The gal's name needs clearin', partner.

Oh, I wouldn't go so far as to say that.

But I'm sure Mr. Warriner
is pleased at the opportunity

to... to deny the silly story
I heard this afternoon.

Why, certainly, Mrs. Leeson, certainly.
What is it?

Lucy, this woman said that Mr. Warriner
permitted you to bring proceedings

so that...

Well, uh, so that your reputation
wouldn't be ruined.

There. It's out. I know it's silly, but...

Oh, of course it's silly, Mrs. Leeson.
And so are you.

- What?
- See here, Warriner.

Ah, no, I mean it's silly for your mother
to believe such nonsense.

Oh.

You see, Mrs. Leeson, our divorce
was one of those tragedies

that you read about in the papers.

A trusting woman and a worthless man.

I was never good enough for Lucy
and, well, finally she found it out.

Lucy is above suspicion and always has been.

She's as pure as the driven snow,

as faithful as she is fair.

And I would that I had been worthy
to kiss the hem of her garment.

Never during our marital bliss
did she cause me one moment's uneasiness.

Never did I have to ask, "Lucy,
where have you been? What were you doing?"

I always knew.

I tell you, something wonderful
went out of my life when I lost her.

- I know just how you feel.
- How do you know?

How can you know how it feels to have
used up the best years of a woman's life?

Well, of course, that's the way it goes.

Excuse me.
You're sitting on my prospectus.

Huh? Oh! Oh, well...

Dan...

take those and look them over
and let me know.

And, Dan... take good care of her.

Well, I'll be going now.

Yes, Dan, take good care of her.

Maybe you'll succeed where I failed.

And I'm sure that, uh, the three of you
will be very happy out where the West begins.

If you ever think of me,
send me a postcard.

Just say, "Having a wonderful time."

I'll understand.

Good-bye now.

Well, Ma, are you convinced
about everything?

What about the music teacher?

Look, you two settle things for yourselves
and let me know how it comes out.

Put a light in the window if it's "yes,"
two if it's "no,"

and if you can't make up your minds
just pull down the shade.

Oh, Ma.

Hello there.

And what are you doing in my apartment,
if I'm not too inquisitive?

Well, I thought after that swell reference
I gave you, I ought to have a drink.

Wish I'd mixed it for you.

I see what you mean.

I certainly do appreciate all those
charming things you had to say about me.

If ever I get the chance,
I hope I can do as much for you.

Oh, it was nothing at all, Lucy.
I try to go through life...

I know. Spreading a little sunshine
as you go.

No, no, frankly,
I was worried about you, Lucy.

Uh, you've never asked for money and...

Well, do you need any?

No, I think I can struggle along
without any help from you.

I figured you'd made
a bad investment or something.

- Oh, no. I only made one bad investment.
- Ah, don't bite me.

I just thought that maybe, uh, Buffalo Bill's
millions might have something to do with...

That's nothing to do with anything.

Millions or no millions,
he's a very charming person.

I've seen him.

I can't possibly interpret this
as jealousy.

Oh, no. Mm-mmm.

No, I've come out
from behind those clouds.

I, uh... I've taken
a definite turn for the better.
