Hi, Leo.

Say, kid, if these flowers
ain't any fresher than
they were yesterday,

we're gonna switch,
see?
Okay.

Blainey!

Hey, Blainey.
Put these on ice.

Here you are, kid.

Hiya, Leo.

What time is it?
Quarter after three.

What's new?
We had a big night
last night.

What's new about that?

Well, we took in plenty
of dough!

Are you readin' where Walker
knocked out Red Nolan
in the fourth?

Yeah.
Got a great left hand,
that kid.

When he lands,
they can all go home.

What's that?
From your shirtmaker.
Fifteen bucks apiece!

Why, that dumb cluck!

Look at the size of
those initials!

Why, they're great.
I told 'im to
make 'em smaller.

And the last time
they wasn't big enough.
I know.

But I found out
the big ones were bad taste.

Oh, so they made a mistake
for fifteen bucks apiece,
huh?

Well, don't get sarcastic.
They're silk, ain't they?

Well, this ain't tin.
Only cost me a buck apiece.

I call that silk.
Why, ya mug, don't ya
know ya got stung?

Boy, ya wanna fight,
do you?
I love it!

[Laughing]

Gee, ya ain't forgot
a thing, have ya, kid?

That's for nothin'.
Now, start somethin'.

Now cut it out, Joe,
cut it out, will ya?
All right.

You're feelin' pretty good,
ain't ya?

Yeah, I feel great
after that workout.

I wonder if she'll
be here tonight?

Who, Iris? Sure.

No, not Iris.
The lady.

The lady?
Yeah, the lady
that sits alone.

Why, ya don't
even know her!

That's it.
She's got me guessing.
Just the way she sits there.

Well, how does
she sit there?

The way she sits,
she stands out.

Oh, I get it. She's
one of those standin'
and sittin' ladies.

[Phone Buzzing]

Hello.

Well, wait a minute.
I'll ask him.

Say, McFadden wants
the Beach Room tonight.
Who?

Tim McFadden,
the promoter.
No.

Well, McFadden'll spend
a couple of grand.
Can't have it.

Buy a lot of shirts.

I said he can't have it.

He can't have it.
Two thousand bucks.

Good-bye, glad
to have met you.

Money means everything
to you, don't it?

Well, what are you
in the racket for?

I don't know.

Say, what do you think
I could get for this joint
if I sold it?

Listen, Joe.
What's gettin'
into you?

I can't stand it no more.
I'm sick of the smell of booze.

I'm sick of noise, of being
a pal to a lot of drunks.

I'm not getting anyplace!
What are you
talkin' about?

Ain't you the owner
of the "swellest" speak
in New York?

How long ago was it when you
was a third-rate pug,
takin' it on the chin?

You don't call that travelin'?

No. I'm only wearin'
a tuxedo instead of tights.

I'd give the joint away.

[Door Slamming]
See who that is,
will you?

Oh. Did he cut off
the fat?

Okay,
put it over there.

Come on, Joe.
Your breakfast's getting cold.

Oh, how do you do,
Miss Dawn?
Hello, Jimmie.

Well, good afternoon,
bright eyes.
Had your bath?

Hello, Iris.

Well, smile,
it's me.

How are ya?

What's the idea of
the bad mood?

Did you
dream of me?

What are you so
cheerful about?
Three cocktails, dearie.

You're drinkin' too much.
Oh, yeah?

What'd you want to do,
end up just bein' a souse?

Hmph. Where do you
lecture tomorrow night?

You think you're gonna keep
that face all your life.
Uh-huh, I hope so.

You know what
you're gonna look
like in ten years?

You'll still love me,
won't ya, Joe?

What for, your brains?

Now, don't you worry
about my brains.

Well, that's a help.

Say, I can take care
of myself, see?

Sure you can.

Joe,
what's the matter?
Nothin'.

Yes, there is. I feel like
I'm losin' out in some way.

Listen, Joe̶
[Door Closing]

Beat it, dear,
I gotta get dressed.

What of it?
You heard me.
I gotta dress.

You're getting
mighty particular.

Oh, thank you, Jenkins.

I don't like being
rousted around.

What's up?
Frankie Guard's downstairs.
Wants to see you.

What about?
I don't know.

Anybody with him?
Yeah, a couple of mugs.

Tell Blainey to come up.

Hey, Bill.
Yeah?

Tell Blainey to
come up here.
Okay.

[Phone Ringing]

Hello.

Who wants him?

Maudie!

Well, what'd you
know about that?
When did you get in?

Yeah? Wait'll I see
if he's here, Maudie.

The ball game.

He's gone to
the ball game, Maudie.

Yeah, sure, he'll be
here by that time.

All right, I'll tell him.
You bet. Good-bye.

What do you know
about that!

So she's back, huh?
Yeah, just got
off the boat.

Hmm.
Said she'd phone you
tonight.

Hey, what is this thing
you've got with women?
They always come back.

Say, I'm through knockin'
around with every dame
I ever went with.

Even Maudie?
Yes, even Maudie.

But she was pretty swell
to me in the old days,
at that.

She seemed pretty classy
to ya then.
No cracks.

Okay, but don't worry
about Maudie. She ain't
crying over you.

She still has class
for plenty of'em.

[Knocking]
Blainey?

Yeah.
Come on in.

Wait a minute, Joe.

Hello, Joe.

Hello, Frankie.

Glad to see you again.
Glad to see you.
Hiya, boys.

[Indistinct Chatting,
Laughing]

You're lookin' swell.
You think so?

Yeah, how is he?
Oh, swell. He's very fond
of you, Joe.

Say, he's a swell fella too.

What's on your mind,
Frankie?

Jimmy Gaston and his mob
was around to see me
last night.

They're pretty sore at you.

What are they sore at me for?

Well, before
you opened up here,

I was gettin'
all the business on this block.

Since you moved in,
trade's been pretty slow.

Oh, I see.

You know. You can't
reason with that mob.

In other words, you're
tellin' me to close up,
is that it?

Oh, no, don't take it
that way, Joe.

We don't want no trouble.
I'm̶We're willing
to buy you out.

Yeah? What'll you give?

50 grand.

Make it 250
and the joint is yours.

Don't be humorous!

Listen, that's final.
And I won't sell for
a nickel less.

Well, if that's
the way you feel,

you're liable to have
some visitors one of
these nights.

[Chuckling]
Well that's really funny.
Will ya do me a favor, Frankie?

Sure, Joe, anytime.
You know me.

Tell Gaston and his mob
the sooner they come around,
the better I'll like it.

These quiet evenings
are getting on my nerves...

and a little excitement'll
be as welcome as
the flowers in May.

I'll tell him that, Joe.
Leave it to me.
Don't forget.

And, uh,
speaking of flowers, Joe,

just what kind
would you prefer?

Oh, anything at all,
except pansies.

Your last wish'll
be fulfilled, Joe.
Okay.

Now, take care of yourself.
So long, boys.

Say hello to the wife,
will you?
I'll tell her I saw you.

So long, Joe.
So long, Leo.
So long, boys.

All right, Blainey,
get back to work.

I don't like it.
Aw, I love it.

Say, ain't
Jellyman here yet?
Yeah,
she's waitin' for you.

I'm sorry to be late.
I had a little business
to attend to.

That's quite all right,
Mr. Anton, quite all right.
Shall we begin?

Thank you. Where did we
leave off yesterday?
Let me see.

You were tellin' me
about Andrew Carnegie.
Yes.

I found out he gave a lot
of libraries away. Is that right?
Yes.

He wanted everybody
to read, didn't he?

Presumably that
was his idea.
Smart guy, wasn't he?

Ah. You mean he was
an intelligent gentleman,
don't you?

Yeah, that's it.
I'm sorry.

He was an intelligent gentleman,
wasn't he?
Yes, he was.

Was his folks rich?

You mean were
his folks rich?

Yes, did they have money?
No, they were
very poor.

But they were educated,
though, weren't they?

No, I believe they were
very simple people.

How did he get
where he got?

I thought we'd agreed not
to use the word "got."

Well, how did he get
where he̶

You mean, how did he
accomplish what he did?

Tha-that's it,
Miss Jellyman.

By courage, honesty,
perseverance
and vision.

Vision.

Vision. That̶

That means looking ahead,
doesn't it?
Yes.

[Phone Buzzing]

Oh, excuse me,
won't you?
Certainly.

Hello. Yes, Leo. No.

You know I don't want
to be bothered!
I'm taking my lessons!

No imagination.

Now supposing you
read this to me aloud.

It is an article that
you should know about.

It is the most important
question of the day.

"The settlement
at 'Lousane"'̶
Lausanne.

Lausanne.
Lausanne. It's a place
in Switzerland.

"Assuming that the reasonable
prompt ratifi"̶
Ratification.

"Ratification
follows by the"̶

[Whistles]
This is a long one.

"Partic... pating."
Participating.

"Participating nations."
That means "sharing."

Umm. "The settlement of
reparations reached at
Lausanne"̶

I got it that time.
Very good.

"must stand as a forward step
of tremendous importance."

I'm doin' pretty good,
ain't I?

Oh, excellently,
but not "ain't l",
"am I not."

Hiya, sugar.
How's the show?
Okay.

Hello, Joe.

Why, how are ya, Mr. Wilson?
Where have you been?
Europe.

Oh. Say, Mr. Wilson,
I've been reading about
this Lausanne conference.

Is that a lot of talk,
or, or will the nations
get together?

Well, uh,
nations are like people, Joe,
and do people get together?

That's a swell way
of puttin' it. I never
thought of it that way.

See ya later, Mr. Wilson.

Hiya, mug.
They're bringing my mother home
tomorrow from the hospital.

You don't know
how much I appreciate̶
Listen, mug,

if you mention
that again, I'll̶
[Laughing]

Why, how are you?
I'm better now, Joe.

Have you been sick?
No, I just got
my divorce.

I didn't know
you were married.

Joe, I'm afraid you've been
watching me too closely.

Oh, you got me
that time.
[Laughing]

[Man] Give us
a drink, will you?
What'll you have?

You wanna okay this, Joe?

You'd better look at it.
It's Georgie Harrison's check.

Tell him no.
Okay.

Hey, Joe.
Maudie's on the phone.

Oh, well,
I mean̶
You mean what?

I mean I'm not here.
That's what I mean.

You can't still be
at the ball game.
It's night.

I'm at a show.
They're open nights,
ain't they?

Yeah, sure,
they're open nights.

Well, that's great.
Give me a drink
of water, Tom.

Well, I told her.
Give us a drink, Tom.

What are you
so sore about?

All the time
I've wasted with dames
like Maudie and Iris.

You can't have a woman
like her, you're better off
with nothin'.

Oh, she's
here again.

Look at the way
she sits there.

It's funny, but to me she
don't seem to sit different
than anybody else.

Oh, you don't know
class when you see it.
Yeah?

I didn't know classy gals
went alone to nightclubs.

That's the mystery.
Oh, she's a lady,
all right.

You don't think
she's here
for a pickup?

I'll say she ain't.
"Keep off the grass"
is written all over her.

Well, there's a guy
who don't see the sign.

You can't sit here.
Oh, come on.

Let's have a little "drinkie."
Let's, let's have
a little talk, huh?

You know him?
No.

Come on,
get out of here.
Oh, don't do that.

I'm sorry I can't talk,
I'm leaving right away.
Forgive me, will you?

You mean, you don't
want to talk?
Not tonight.

Aw, that's all right,
old girl, that's all right.

There's no hard feelings,
huh?

None at all.
That's splendid.

It's a good thing
you didn't try
to pull any stuff with me.

A very lonesome man.

Why, he's just a drunk.

Well, can't a drunk
be lonesome?

Yeah, he can be. I never
thought of it that way.

Well, think of it
next time before you
throw somebody out.

It's no fun being lonesome,
Mr. Proprietor.

What's the matter,
are you lonesome?

Who isn't?

So that's it.
So what's it?

You had me guessin',
the way you come here alone.

Really?

Look. If you're lonesome,
I won't bother you, see?

I mean, if you're
just lonesome, I can't
make you any "unlonesomer."

Get me?
Yes, I get you.

What I mean is,
if there's anything else,

if you're in wrong,
maybe I can, uh̶

You'd rush to my rescue.
Yeah, that's
what I mean.

For instance,
what could you do?

Well, when you put it
like that, I guess there's
just one thing, I suppose.

If you need money, I mean̶
That's very
gallant of you.

No, there's another thing.
If there was any guy
troubling you̶

More gallant still.

Well, what do you say?
I'll say you're
very gracious.

No, I don't want
your money, mister, uh̶
What is your name?

Anton.
Mr. Anton.

I don't want your money,
and I don't want
anyone hit on the head.

That wouldn't solve
my problem.

You won't tell me
about it?
It wouldn't interest you.

But it might interest you
to know why I come here.
Why?

I used to live here.
You did?

I was born here.

Yeah?
When was that?

About sixty years ago.

Oh!
At least it seems
that long.

What's your name?
Healy.

Miss?
Um-hmm.

Well, well.
It must look
plenty different.

It does.

How would you
like to see the house?
I would.

Now?
Not now.

Well, well.

Oh, hello!

Hello.
This is Mr. Anton.

How are you,
Mr. Bolton?
Hello, Joe.

Well, pardon me.
Will, uh,
will you excuse me?

I might like to see
the house later.
Come back, will you?

You bet.
Pardon me, Mr. Bolton.

Well, how do you do?
And how are you?

The end of
a three-day search,
that's how I am.

I even had detectives
looking for you.
I had to do some thinking.

Evidently, you had
to do something.
I'll tell you all about it.

My ears are yours.
Maybe that's all
you want of me.

That's what I had
to find out.

Look, Dick,
something happened when
I said I'd marry you.

You left and I was
going to bed, remember?
I do.

Well,
I didn't go to bed.

I just told
the man of my choice
that I was his.

Why didn't my heart leap?

Not a little?

Then the years fell away
and I was a girl again.

The first thing I knew,
I was here.

I got dressed
and came over here.

But why here?

This was my home
when I was that girl.

Oh. Oh, yes.

So I made believe
I was her again,

the girl who found her
first dream of love
in this house.

And I matched that man
of her dream against you.

I suppose I showed up
very badly.
I don't know.

I didn't want
to see you the next day
because I didn't know.

So I came here again
last night and tonight,

and I still don't know.

Jerry, I'm up against it.
The dreams of a young girl
are hard to beat.

Oh, but I'm not young
any more, Dick.

I've changed just like
my house has.

Look at it.

[Indistinct Chatter]

It was such a lovely house.

Well, Jerry, what am I
to say to all this?

You thought I was rich,
didn't you?
I didn't think about it.

I was.
A month ago I lost it.

And I realize̶
I'm going to be cruel, Dick.
Go ahead.

I realize if I still had it,
I wouldn't marry you.

My money keeps me
in the race?

Now, I suppose you'll
decide the race
by walking out on me.

No. I suppose
I ought to...

but, no.

Well, see me tomorrow.

Yes, I'll know then...
tomorrow.

- I didn't finish my drink!
- Shut up! Get out of here!

Wait a minute.
Don't throw him out.

Why not?
He's lonesome.

Say, you goin' daffy?
I said, don't throw him out.
Take him out.

Suppose he don't want
to be taken?
Then, leave him here.

You really want
to stay here, eh?
Yes.

Well, good night.
Good night, Dick.

You're crazy if you don't think
we're crazy about each other.

Are you going
to sweep me off my feet?

[Laughing]
You'll never know
what hit you.

Umm. Where am I?
I'm swept!
Oh, shut up.

You're not leaving,
Mr. Bolton?
Yes, Joe.

Yes, he's off
in search of a broom.

[Chuckling]
A broom?

Yes, he's going
to be a sweeper.

I'm afraid
I don't get you.

Good night, Joe.
Good night, Mr. Bolton.

Good night, Mrs. Bolton.
Good night, Mr. Healy.

I'm afraid l̶
You got me guessin' again.

Oh, a little gaiety
is all it means, Mr. Anton.

It's the influence
of your charming inn.
Sit down.

Even the wine seems
more like wine.

Magic spreads
its wings afar.

Magic!

Yeah, that's the word.

Magic!

That's the way I feel.
Huh?

Everything looks different,

new, brand-new,
and shiny-like.

Get me?
No. Why does it?

Oh, I don't know,
but it does.

[Iris]
Well,

aren't you going to introduce
me to your friend?

Miss Healy, Miss Dawn.
How do you do?

I don't think I've
seen you around before.

This is my third visit.

You don't
waste much time, do you?
Wait a minute, Iris.

She's right.
I have stayed too long.

Will you see
that I get my check?
It's all paid for.

Oh, Mr. Bolton,
of course. Good night.

I'll see you to a cab,
Miss Healy.
Don't bother, Mr. Anton.

It's no trouble at all,
I'm sure.
Good night.

Wait a minute, Iris.
Let me go!

Come on, be a good sport.
I'm not a good sport,
I'm a tough loser.

Come on, I'll buy you a drink.
You ain't lost nothin' yet.

No? And I'm not
gonna loose nothin', either.

He's mine, and no gal
from Park Avenue
can take him away.

He's only showin'
the gal to a cab.
He's tryin' to be polite.

Polite! A mug tryin' to
be a gentleman.

Now, listen. No cracks
about him or I'll punch you
right in the nose.

Guy's got a right
to do what he wants.

What's got into him, Leo?

He ain't
the same guy anymore.
I don't know.

He just wants
to injure himself, I guess.

Give us
a couple of drinks, Tom.
Make mine a double.

[Car Honking]

Well, good night,
and thanks again.

Will I see you
tomorrow?
Tomorrow?

Yeah, you said
you wanted
to see the house.

But why tomorrow?
You're not thinking
of closing?

You never can tell.
I have some friends that may
drop around any evening now.

Oh, friends, huh?
Yeah, just pals with
a gun in each pocket.

You lead a happy life,
don't you?
Do I?

Um-hmm.
The pirates of today.

That's funny.
I just finished
reading a pirate story.

They stole a lot of women in it.

Happy days!

Well, good night.

Tomorrow?
All right.

Dinner?
Why, all right.

You know, you have something
you must never lose.

Yeah, what?
Something different.

I don't know exactly
what it is. It's, well,

exciting.

Or, is it
my imagination?

Well, good night.
All right, driver.

Start with the hors d'oeuvres.
I want the Michigan celery.

But that is
out of season.
Get it!

Then assorted olives,
the, uh, California Jumbos,

and the Italian Palmeros.

In the center,
I want the antipasto.

Around the edges,
Italian salamis...

and in between,
plenty of Russian caviar.

Hello. Yeah, Joe.

Wait a minute and I'll see.

Did the squabs come yet?
Oui, Monsieur.

Yeah, they're here, Joe.

Huh?

All right.
He wants oyster dressin'.

Very well,
oyster dressing.

Yeah, Joe, everything's
coming along just lovely.

No. How many times I gotta
tell you it ain't time
forJellyman yet?

Aw, she'll be here.

[Doorbell Ringing]

Hello, Miss Jellyman.
I'm glad you showed up today.

Well, don't I always,
Mr. Anton?

Yes, but I wanted to see you
so bad I was afraid̶
Badly. Badly.

So badly I was afraid
you'd break a leg.

This sounds like
something special.

It's the most special
night of my life
and I need you bad.

Badly.
Badly. Let's can
that stuff a minute.

Sit down. I wanna
tell you something.
Of course.

And now, tell me.
There's a lady coming
to dinner tonight...

that I can't afford
to pull any boners with.
Boners? Tsk, tsk.

I've got to make a hit
with her, to impress her.
And you've got to help me.

Anything that I can do.
You must come
to dinner with us.

To dinner?
Yeah.

Here?
Yeah.

Upstairs?
I want her to feel that you
and I are old friends.

I want us to talk about things
that'll make her think
I'm a big leaguer.

I getcha.
Oh, heavens,
did I say that?

Yeah, but don't say it tonight.
I want you to use all
the ritz you got.

Oh, Mr. Anton, I have
never been so excited.

Imagine dining
in a speakeasy!

I wouldn't be able
to go through with it
without you.

Just seeing you there
would steady me.
I quite understand.

Now, what shall we
talk about tonight
at dinner?

Because I shall have
to leave you and go home
to dress.

And what shall I wear?
What shall I wear?

They look nice,
don't they?
Oh, they're gorgeous.

Tony, the table
is exactly right,
ain't it?

You're not gonna
change it again,
are you?

What's the matter with you?
Don't you like it?
Oh, I love it.

In fact, I've had
a lovely day,

and I'm charmed to have
met'n up with you!

Oh, Mr. Blainey.

I've always wondered
what it was like up here.

Here you are,
Miss Jellyman.
Oh, thank you.

How do you do, Miss Jellyman?
Gee, you look great.
Do I?

You bet you do.
Do I really?

Oh, I'm so excited.
This place is so wonderful.

It's like something
out of a book.
Anything might happen here.

Aw, there's nothing much
goin' on.

Oh, but there is.
There's a smile
on everyone's face.

How does the table look?
Lovely, but we
don't need these.

Why not?
We can't see each other.

That's all right with me.
I don't want to be seen.

Oh, nonsense.
Jim!

How thoughtful of you,
Mr. Anton.
These are beautiful.

Well?
Well?

Well?
I'm sorry.

[Laughing]

Say, I was about̶
No, don't say "say."

Look. If I want to be alone
with her after dinner,

I'll give you
a high sign like this,
and that means you blow.

Blow? Blow what?

[Laughing]
You leave us.

Oh, Mr. Anton,
do I have to go home?

[Laughing]
No, no.

Spend the rest
of the evening here.
Leo will get you another table.

Oh, I feel as though
I'm going to see life...

for the first time tonight.

I feel like I'm gonna get it
in the neck. I've never been
so nervous in my life.

Oh, look.
Here she comes.

Get up, get up!

I feel like I'm hanging
onto the ropes.
Go and meet her.

Remember the introduction,
just as we rehearsed it,

and then
bring her̶
Hello.

Oh, hello.

Gee, you look great.
You're right on time.

You look
very sweet.

I want you to meet
an old friend of mine.
Miss Jellyman, Miss Healy.

I'm so pleased.
How do you do?
Are you dining with us?

Yes.
Oh, how lovely.

Oh, oh!

Oh, I'm so sorry.
It really doesn't matter.
It's only water.

It won't spot. Oh!

A toast.

To our house, Mr. Anton.

It is a lovely place.

Andrew Carnegie had a room
similar to this.

I mean that
the decorations were̶

He was a remarkable man,
don't you think?

Oh, yes. He was
very charitable.

Yes, and he had great vision,
Miss Healy. That's what
the nations need today.

Quite so.

What is your opinion of the
Lausanne conference,
Mr. Anton?

Oh, uh, you're referring
to the conference
in Switzerland?

Uh, quite so.

Do you thing that it's just
a lot of talk,

or that the nations
may finally get together?

Well, uh, nations
are like people.

Do people get together,
Miss Jellyman?

Charmingly put.

Don't you think so?

Oh, yes. That was, very.
Have you a match?

We're going
in with you, Maudie.
My father's very strict.

He don't let me
see boys after 9:00.

Aw, cut the kidding, Maud.

Why don't you guys be good
and go home to your wives?
Who is it?

The fairy princess,
you mug!
Maudie!

Say, don't let those guys in.
They'll wreck the joint.

Hey, gorilla!

Come here.

Hello, Maudie.
Where's Joe? I gotta see
that little rat.

He's pretty busy right now̶
Aw, don't give me that.
You gave it to me twice.

Yeah, but̶
No sale, no sale!
I'm gonna see him tonight.

Wait here.
I'll see if he's here.
I'll be right up after you.

Hello, honey,
how's business?
Fine.

Been insulted lately?
Goodness, what
beautiful diamonds.

Goodness had nothin'
to do with it, dearie.

No. No, thank you.
No more.

No, indeed.
I couldn't take
another drop.

Pardon me, Mr. Anton.

Oh, uh, excuse me.
Certainly.

Tell Mr. Jones I can't see
him tonight.
Yes, sir.

Joey! Joey!
Well, well. Come here
and kiss me, you dog!

Let's take a look at you.

You're lookin' great.
Who's your tailor now?

Not bad, huh?

Who's the dames?
This is
Miss Jellyman.

How do you do?
Pleased to meet ya.

And, uh, Miss Healy.
You're not bad to meet, either.
You're still pickin' 'em.

What's your name?
Maudie Triplett, one of the
blue bloods from Kentucky.

If you don't like the color,
we'll change it.
Sit down, dearie.

Oh, waiter, waiter.
Yes, madame.

A chair, you mug.
The service here
is terrific.

- Have you had your dinner?
- Yes, and a lovely one.

But I could go for some
of that stuff in the bottle.

Well, how about a cordial?
Oh, not for me, honey.

I always take care
of this-a and that-a.
How about it, baby?

Mr. Anton, what is your
opinion of the Russian
five-year plan?

Do you think it will work?

Oh, uh, that depends,
Miss Jellyman.

That all depends on how
the Bolsheviki conference̶

Bolsheviki! Why, Joe, don't
tell me you've gone Bolsheviki?

That reminds me.
Remember the night we were
all at the Eaton House...

when a flock of them gangsters
came in and tried to take me
from you?

You should have seen this kid
fight for me that night.

This is a delicious wine.

I suggest
that we should try some.

You've got a customer!

Honey, remember our last
bout with champagne?
Why, we got so plastered...

[Laughing]
why, they threw us out
in the gutter...

and it took five waiters
to do it and it took
five cops to land us in jail.

Oh, Joe, it's just life
to see you. Come here.
Crawl to me, baby!

Are you a member
of the Red Cross,
Miss Healy?

Oh, yes, I am.

As I was saying,
life is very sad.

This is the first happy time
I've had since I was 27.

You've been buried,
dearie.
You're right.

I do nothing
but teach, teach!

I hate Miss Prinny's school
and Miss Prinny!

Come on,
we'll all hate her,
how about it?

[Laughing]

Hello.

I guess it's about time
to see the house.
All right, let's.

Where
are you going?
We'll be back.

Do you want a cab?
I don't want to go home.

He said I didn't have to.
Yeah, we're gonna make
a night of it.

You go ahead.
We gotta talk it over.

Maudie and I have
a great deal in common.
You said it.

Well, I'll see you
later, Miss Jellyman.
It's been a great success.

It's been delightful,
Miss Triplett.
All right, honey.

Anything you do
is okay with me.

Oh, she's a great gal.
She's all right.
And isn't he lovely?

Ain't he, though?
When I first met him,
he was a third-rate pug.

But I always said he
had the makings, Mabel.

Maudie, do you believe
in love at first sight?

I don't know, but it saves
an awful lot of time.

Your glass is empty.
I couldn't
drink anymore.

Now listen, Mabel,
if you're gonna be Broadway,
you got to learn to take it.

You may as well break in
the act right now.

This night will read great
in your diary.

You said it, baby.
Aw, hotcha!

Maudie, do you really
think I could get rid
of my inhibitions?

Why, sure. I got an old trunk
you can put them in.
Hotcha!

♪♪ [Humming]

This was our music room.

Yeah?

There were
sliding doors there.

They used to lock me in
and make me practice.

The piano̶
Let me see̶

Yes, it was
over there.

Dad loved this room.

I can just remember
mother singing to him.

Your father liked
nice things, didn't he?

And he knew.
Excuse me,
Mr. Anton.

What is it, Jerky?
Frankie Guard's
downstairs.

Alone?
Yeah.

I'll be
right down.

Don't you think you'd better
wait in the dining room
with Miss Jellyman?

Let me wander around
by myself.

All right. I'll
be back in two seconds.

Wait a minute, Joe.
What's the matter?

Don't sell the place.
Why not?

I know what
you're aimin' at, kid.
You ain't gonna make it.

Stay on your own
side of the fence.

How do you know
what my side
of the fence is?

What made you
change your mind?
I don't like trouble.

You know,
if you can avoid̶
Come to the point.

Well, you're askin' 250 grand.
I'll give you 200.
Don't say that ain't fair.

Sold! See you later.
Wait a minute, Joe.
We've got papers to sign.

Can't tonight,
see you tomorrow night.
Don't worry about it.

What's the matter
with you?

Nothin'.

I don't like you
interfering in my business.

All right, kid,
I won't say
nothin' more about it.

Wait a minute, Leo.

What do you care which way
I'm goin'? You're goin'
with me, ain't you?

I don't know about that.
What kind of guy
do you thing I am?

I never turned
a pal down in my life,
and you know it.

That's different.
Why didn't you say so
in the first place?

How much did you get?
Two hundred grand.
Twenty-five is yours.

Gee,
that's swell, Joe.

When I say I'm warnin' you,
Miss Park Avenue,
that means I'm warnin' you.

But my dear girl,
Mr. Anton means
nothing to me.

Hmph. Tell that
to Sweeney.

And I'm not
your dear girl.

Pardon me.

Hey, wait a minute!
You might as well
get used to me...

because I'm gonna
be your companion for
the rest of the night.

Throw her out.
You mean,
"take" her out.

I mean throw her out
and keep her out.

Come on, Iris.
I want to talk to you.
Huh?

Hey, you!
No cracks.

Have you been looking
at this room?
Oh, yes.

That's what you get
for lovin' a guy: the air.

It's got nothin'
to do with me.

Don't throw me out, Leo.
Sorry, Iris. I gotta do
what I'm told.

If I promise you I won't
make no trouble, let me stay.
He won't know I'm here.

Aw, Leo, don't
throw me out.
Orders is orders.

Yeah, but I swear I won't
do nothin'. I wouldn't
lie to you, Leo.

I'll go crazy out there
on the street. Please!

I'm liable to get
into a jam.
No, I give you my word.

I won't do anything
to get you in a jam.

Well̶
Thanks!

Hey, Leo,
that newspaper guy,

the one
who writes the columns,
says he's gotta get in.

He's gonna stay out.
Joe don't want him in here.
He squeals on everybody.

Going home, Iris?
Maybe.

Not the one
thatJohn knows?
Yes.

What did he do?

[Indistinct Chattering]

Is this
the room?
Yes.

What do you know
about that?

Only my bed
wasn't there.

It was over here...
Yeah?

by the window.

And some nights,
the moonlight
used to sneak in.

I made believe
it was a sea.

My hand was a boat.
Yeah.

I can just see
you doin' it.

Gee!

I never saw
so many pictures.

Ain't they
swell?

I had one
over there.

Only one?
Uh-huh.
A Rembrandt lithograph.

Did you ever see
anything like mine?
No, I never did.

I got
18 of'em.

I could have
got the other seven,
only I was a day late.

Perhaps it's
just as well.

[Door Opening]

What do
you want?

You! Nobody
turns me down!
Nobody!

Get over there,
Miss Park Avenue.

Come on down, Joe.

Near enough?

The show don't
go on without me.
If I'm not in it...

you don't play.
[Gasps]

That's right, go on
and gasp, Miss Park Avenue.

You're going to see a show
you don't see on Park Avenue.

Well, well,
if it isn't Iris,
the little gun girl!

Say your prayers, Joe.

Dear little Iris
with her water pistol.

I'm afraid you're going
to see a rotten show,
Miss Healy.

Yeah? I'll give you
ten seconds to say your prayers.

So soon? Give us
a square count, will you.

Sure. I'll
start right now.
One, two,

three,

four, five,

six.
Don't hit her, Leo!

[Gunshot]
[Screaming]

[Sobbing]
Oh, leave me alone.

Well, well, your little
show is over. Didn't I tell
you it would be terrible?

Oh, Joe, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean it, honest.

Did I hear a shot?
Yeah, the playmate was
trying out her water pistol.

Why, you lying little rat!
Double-cross me, huh?

I've got a good mind
to throw you
out the window.

Don't do that.
She might be lonesome.

Come on.
Get goin',
get goin'.

All right. We're all
washed up, Mr. High Hat.

I wouldn't walk across
the street to see you!

[Drawer Opening]

I'm awfully sorry
that this had to happen.

I'm not.
I loved it.
Pirate!

[Sizzling]

[Loud Sizzling]

[Door Opening]

You gone daffy?
Get away from that window
before you get moon burned.

When you can't sleep,
nobody else can,
is that it?

She kissed me!
You told me that before!

I'm tellin' you again.
You don't mind, do you?

I'm a little tired,
but I don't mind.

She kissed me.
She must love me.
How do you know?

Because she kissed me,
and a kiss is a kiss, ain't it?

I don't know anything
about them women.
What do you mean, "them women"?

Maybe they kiss
because they like it.
They love it.

All right, maybe they
love it, but not the guy
they kiss.

What do they
kiss him for?
They love to kiss.

What do you know?

You're right.
Nobody ever kisses me.

- I bet you ten bucks
you never see her again.
- You're on!

Yeah, I'm on,
and you're off your nut!

Hey, Puggie!
Yeah?

Bring on the bromo seltzer,
will you?
Okay.

Ohh!

[Tom]
No sir, there's nothing
like your own bed.

You said it. Well, it ain't
goin' to happen again.

Ooh. You think
I might've caught cold?

No, it's only a kink.

Are you sure
it ain't a cold?

No. What's
the matter?

You gettin'
to be one of those
"hypocrondicracks"?

Are you studyin'
with that teacher too?

Hey, Puggie, can you
imagine that guy
worryin' about a cold?

Come in.

[Mabel Groaning]

There you are, Mabel.
[Groaning]

Oh, Leo. Put it
right over there,
honey.

What'd I tell you,
Mabel? You can
always depend on Leo.

How long you two dames
goin' to stay in here?

My dear young man, that's
a very difficult question
to answer.

[Groaning]

Well, I gotta have
this bed tonight!

[Gasps]
Lovely boy.

The price of pleasure.

Come on, dearie,
stick this
under your belt.

What is it?
Never mind
what it is.

It'll put you
right back
on your feet.

I shall never stand
on my feet again.
Atta girl!

Conscious now,
dearie?
Ah.

This'll
do it, honey.

Chemistry's
a wonderful thing.

I'll say it is, but I know
a couple of druggists...

that never made a dime
until prohibition.

Oh! That reminds me.

I've got a class
in political science
the first thing this morning.

Not this morning, dearie.
It's 4:30 in the afternoon.

Are you telling me the truth?
I wouldn't
fool you, honey.

Oh, Miss Prinny! Why, I've
never missed a day in my life.

Miss Prin̶
What'll Miss Prinny think?

Why, she'll think
you double-crossed her.

Oh, no, dear.
Don't̶ Don't say that.

Come on, dearie,
take this and Prinny'll
take to the woods.

No. No, thank you, dear,
nothing more to drink.
Thank you.

If Miss Prinny
finds out that I've been
in a speakeasy all night,

I shall never
teach again.
That's great.

Maudie, be serious.

Why, this is my livelihood.

Your livelihood?
Why, dearie,
you're wasting time.

Why, a gal with your poise
and class, you'd make thousands
in my business.

Your business! Are you
asking me to come into
your business?

Why, of course. Why not?

It's one of the best payin'
rackets in the world.

Oh! Oh, of course l̶
I recognize that
your business has been...

a great factor
in the building
of civilization.

And, of course,
it has protected
our good women...

and thereby preserved
the sanctity of the home.

And there, there were
such women as Cleopatra,

and, of course, France
owes a great deal
to Du Barry, and̶

But me, dear?

Don't you think
I'm just a little old?

Say,

what kind of a business
do you think I'm in?

Oh! Oh, please.

Oh, dear.
Don't let's say
anymore about it.

Say, listen, dearie,
you got me all wrong.

Why, I got a chain
of beauty parlors.

Oh, I see.
That is the business,
a cosmetician.

Yeah, that's it.
Oh, I see.

But how do I fit in?
Like a glove.
You'd make a swell hostess.

Oh, yes?
Go on.

You see, I'm opening
a little place here
in New York.

I'm calling it "Institood
de Beaut." Not bad, huh?
Quite all right.

I gotta have someone
who looks distinguished,
like you.

That's kind of you.
Tell you what
I'll do.

I'll give you
$100 a week and̶
$100?

I'll cut you
in on the profits.
What do you say?

Oh, it's
too wonderful!

Stick with me, dearie,
and I'll make you
a platinum blonde.

It's too enchanting!
l̶ I can't grasp it.

Can I have some of that stuff
that makes Miss Prinny
go to the woods?

You bet you can.
Oh!

I thought you were
so sure she was
comin' back.

Well, I'm not takin'
any chances. Call up
all the Healys.

But there's 1,700 of'em.
I don't care if there's
a million. Find her.

I got Bolton's office
on the phone for you, Joe.

Hello. Mr. Bolton there?

Joe Anton.

You think he'll be there
this afternoon?

You know where
I can locate him?
Aw, never mind.

Here's the
city directory, Joe.

Oh, here
he is, Joe.

Well, did you
find her?
We never fail, kid.

Does Miss Healy
expect you?

Yes, in a way
she does.
I'll see if she's home.

Your name again,
please?
Mr. Anton.

Wait in here.

Hello.

Oh, hello.

Well, this is a surprise!
Anymore exciting times?

Yeah, uh, this really
excites me.

What does?
This view.

Oh, yes, the buildings
are rather exciting.

But that view's nothing
compared to̶ Come here.

You can see the harbor
from here.

Look.

Say!
Well, say it.

I wouldn't know how
to say it. Gee!

What a place
to live in.

Yes, it is nice.

This bedroom's got it
all over your old one.

I'll bet the moonlight
comes in there, all right.

I suppose it does.
I don't notice it
as I used to.

That's a picture
of Bolton, ain't it?
Uh-huh.

That's another one, huh?

Yes, that's
his favorite pony.

Some nag, all right.

You and Mr. Bolton
are old friends, ain't you?
Of course.

By the way, what happened
to your friends?
What friends?

Miss Jellyman and
Miss Trip̶
What was her name?

Triplett?
Yes, that's it.

Oh, nothing.
I thought
they were so nice.

Mr. Anton!

What?
Please!

What do you mean?

Well, it's
rather sudden.

What's
sudden about it?
Isn't it?

Didn't you kiss me
last night?

Oh!
Didn't you?

Well, yes, of course.

But that was last night.
I was thrilled.
I had to do something.

Oh, you were
thrilled, eh?
Yes, terribly.

So that's all it meant.
Well, but of course.

What did you think
it might mean?

I'll tell you what I thought.

I thought you might be
in love with me, see.
Now you know how dumb I am.

Oh!
Believe it or not,
I come over to ask you to marry me.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry
you took it that way.

Don't be sorry.
I get it all right, now.

You would have kissed
any guy that done
the same thing.

Well, I don't know
about that. l̶

Anyway, it didn't
mean nothin'.

Yeah, the pirates of today
are pretty dumb.

So long.

Oh, Mr. Anton,
wait!

I don't know what to say.

But I do know
I don't want you to go away
thinking badly of me.

No hard feelings.

And you'll drop in to
"55" again, maybe.

Well, I don't know.
Mr. Bolton and I
are going abroad Thursday.

Mr. Bolton?
We're going
to be married.

Oh!
See?

Yeah.
I didn't know you
was in love with him.

I'm not.
You're not?

Well, what are you
marrying him for?

Don't̶ Don't tell me
you're marryin' him
for his dough?

Would that
surprise you very much?

So that's it!
Well, well.

Well, what?
Nothin'.

Dough's pretty good stuff,
and he's got his share.

I certainly
congratulate you.

Why, you talk as if
that's all he had.

No, I got
no quarrel with him.

And I'm sure you're
gonna be very happy.
You've got all you need.

What did you think I wanted?
Something you had?

Now, now, don't
pay no attention
to anything I say.

But I had an idea, see?
I had an idea that up
in this part of the world...

there was somethin'
worth the gettin',
and I went after it.

But I see now
it was just my imagination.

In other words, you're
telling me what you think of me.

I'm tellin' you, as I
look at you now, you're just
another dame with a skirt.

And there's no difference
between you and Iris, except
the way you manicure your nails.

Why, how dare you
speak to me like that!

Well, my dear
Miss Park Avenue,
I suppose I dare to,

because I got nothing
but contempt for you.

Contempt!

No, I wouldn't
even say that.

You'd better
take that back!

I ain't even got that.
You're nothin' to me,
just nothin' at all.

And if I was a pirate,
and had you on my ship,

I wouldn't
toss you to the crew.

Get out of here!
Get out of here!

I'm on my way.

So long, baby.

[Sobbing]

I don't get you.
You understand English?
I'm not sellin'.

You can't
change your mind
like that, Joe.

You're goin' to tell me
what to do, huh?
You know it.

You'd better change
that tone in your voice,
or I'll change it for you.

Keep your hands out
of your pockets.

Okay, Joe, but you ain't
goin' to be here long.

What you gonna do?
Make another speech
and tell me how tough you are?

No, I'm through talkin'.

That's great.
Come on, boys.

See that the boys get
out all right, Blainey.
Okay, Joe.

How's business
upstairs?
Great.

What's the matter?
She let you down?

Never mind that.
Did Hennessey
pay his bill?

Atta boy! Back in
your own backyard, huh?
You said it!

Number 55 West̶
I know the place,
lady, I know.

Okay, Tom.

But my good fortune
need not interfere
with your lessons, Mr. Anton.

No more lessons,
Miss Jellyman.
They're out.

Out?
Out like a light.

And you were
getting on so nicely.

No more
gentleman stuff for me.
He's right, Mabel.

What's the sense
of trying to be
something you're not?

This guy was all right in
the first place. You only
thought you were wrong.

Come on, snap out of it,
ya dog!

Always a pal, eh, Maudie?
What do you think of her,
Miss Jellyman?

Wait for me.

[Pounding]

Where's Mr. Anton?
He's around.

Something I can
do for you?
Yes, tell me where he is.

Sit down.
I'll find him.
I won't sit down.

Then stand up, and I'll
see if I can find him.

No man can say
the things he said to me
and get away with it!

Oh! Just a minute!
Just a minute!

So long, kid.
I know what to do
if the worst happens.

Notify your uncle.
Scram. I'm busy.

There's a tiger
in the lobby.
What are you talking about?

The lady, Miss Healy,
the classy gal.

Did you ever see her
with her Irish up?

Where is she?
Down in the lobby.

All right, chief.

[Sobbing]

Hide your guns
and take it easy.

Buy you a drink,
Joe?

It looks like
you're doin' all right.

So there you are!
Go ahead, don't
let me stop you.

Well, you were right,
weren't you?
I don't get you.

You said I was
a lot of things.
You can see you were right.

There's nobody as bad
as I am, nobody!

You wouldn't throw me
to the crew, huh?

You said I was like Iris
and I'm here to prove it.

This only
proves something
very different.

What do you mean?

It proves that you are
a lady, and a little
stuck on me at that.

What are you
talking about?
What do you think?

Do you think
you'd come over here
if you didn't want me?

This roughhousing
the place is just
a fancy way of puttin' it.

Now you're boring me.

If I'm boring you,
it's because I'm talkin'
instead of takin' you,

and that's what
you came here for.

You let me go!
Not a chance!
This is what you want.

How dare you!
Our old friend,
"how dare you"!

Let me go!
Let me go!
Not a chance!

[Exploding]

Frankie Guard's here,
Joe!
Get the rods, quick.

[Crashing]

No, Joe, you can't!
Look out!

Oh, Joe, wait!
You can't
go down there!

I love you!
I didn't know it,
but I do now.

Do you know
what you're sayin'?

You were right.
That's why I came back.

Oh, I do love you.

Joe! Joe! Come on, Joe!
They're wreckin' everything.

Tell 'em to stop.
They're only wreckin'
their own joint.

Oh, Mr. Anton,
please don't
say "joint."

Come on Mabel.
Get out those books.

Looks like he's goin'
to take more lessons.

[Exploding]
