Fourth floor,
please.

Fourth floor, please!
I'm in a hurry!

Talking to me?

Yes.
Fourth floor, please.

I'm in a hurry.

Oh, I'm sorry, but you're going
To have to wait just a moment.

You see,
The operator just stepped out.

Oh, I'm sorry.

That's all right.

Fourth floor,
please.

No smoking, miss.

Fourth floor,
please!

I'm in a hurry!

We don't allow smoking
In the elevators, miss.

Good morning,
Miss Hamilton.

Good morning.
Right this way, please.

Hello, dad.
Have I kept you waiting?

Of course
you kept us waiting.

You're so
Irresponsible.

Now, dad,
For heaven's sake,

It was bad enough
Getting here at all.

I never heard
Of such a thing!

Hello, aunt Agatha.

Hello, everyone.

Sit down, for the love of mike!
Let's get this over.

Are you ready, Mr. Hamilton?
Yes, go ahead.

Oh, Corinne, I found
The most marvelous hairdresser

Two blocks
From the ritz.

Oh, but you don't mean louie?

Children,
Will you please be quiet?

Sorry, father.

But I'm sure
It can't be louie.

I didn't say it was louie,
Did i?

This man's an artist.

Are you ready...
Miss Hamilton?

I'm so sorry,
Mr. Mitchell.

That's right, freshy.

With your permission.

It'll only
Take a moment.

As every member
Of this family,

Including you, Mr. Walton,
As miss Corinne's husband,

Is a director in the
Incorporated Hamilton estate,

Deriving therefrom his portion
Of its profits,

I have thought it best,
However irksome you may deem it,

To call you together
At this time.

Yes, Mr. Mitchell,
Do come to the point.

This is apt
To go on for weeks.

Come on, i'll play you
Tic-tac-toe... 10 bucks a game.

You're on.

May I have your attention,
Please?

I'm so sorry,
Mr... Mitchell.

The question is simply this...
The estate is being sued

For $50,000
By the family of a workman.

A workman,
Did you say?

Yes. He was killed while working
On one of your properties.

Why, whoever heard
Of such a thing?

Please be quiet, Agatha.

Proceed.

The lawyer for the family
Is willing to settle

Out of court
For $10,000.

I feel certain,
However,

If the matter
Is handled properly,

We can defeat the suit
Entirely.

I should like to have a vote
To determine your decision.

If you say you can win,
What is there to determine?

Purely an
Ethical consideration.

Oh, tommyrot.

Is that
Your combined opinion?

Is that
Your combined opinion?

Yeah, that's our
Combined opinion.

Very well.

I have notified the lawyer
For the family.

If you'll wait a moment,
I'll see if he's here.

What for?
Haven't we decided?

I thought you would like to know
His reactions, Mrs. Walton,

Before
The family disperses.

Who is he?
His name is Norton.

Hmm.
Never heard of him.

No, he's a stranger
To the city.

Send him in.

You can't do that!
I didn't!

Of course you did.
I went first, didn't i?

And then you went there,
And I went there.

No, no, no, Dell,
This was the first time.

You were first
This time.

But, no,
Dell is right.

I was watching
All the time.

My dear, at the club,
We always say...

I know, dad, but the important
Thing is who goes first.

Well,
I was 3 up.

Well, that ought to
Satisfy you.

Ladies and gentlemen...

Mr. Hamilton,
I want you to meet Mr. Norton.

Norton?

Oh, yes,
Of course, I'm sorry.

I beg your pardon.

Mr. Norton,
Mr. Hamilton.

How do you do, sir?

Sorry to have to bother you

but the cause is obviously
A just one.

I hope you decided
To settle.

I daresay you do,
Mr. Norton,

But I am not convinced that
There's any reason for settling.

I beg your pardon.

I thought
You understood.

What is there
To understand?

Simply because I've got
A little money,

Every tom, dick,
And harry

who happens to scratch
his finger with a pin...

Scratch his finger?!
The man was killed.

Precisely.

And, therefore,
It is to be supposed

That i am to blame for
Every accidental death in town.

Well, that's hardly
A fair point, sir.

I'm sorry
you can't see it that way.

Our family does.

I apologize.

But, you see, I was thinking
Of another family...

A family of six,
Destitute.

What business is that
Of mine?

Why, I support at least
A dozen such families,

Quite aside
From my annual contributions

To organized charities.

And don't forget
The starving armenians, dad.

Shh!
What?

That's all very fine,
Sir,

But the matter
That we're discussing

Has nothing to do
With charity.

What else is it?!
It's an obligation

Which any man
Of average humanity

Should be only too glad
To accept.

And I'm very sorry that
You don't see it that way.

I never heard
Of such a thing.

Now, yes, you have.
No, really, dad.

I don't think it would hurt us
To give the money.

Well, if that was your opinion,
Why didn't you speak up before?

But when?
When Mr. Mitchell...

Oh, did he
Say something?

Now, Dell,
Behave yourself.

I assure you, sir,
That a settlement

Would be
Greatly appreciated.

In my experience,
Appreciation and insolence

Have never gone
Hand in hand.

Mitchell...
You know what action to take.

Come along.

Uh, you know...

Hey.

Have you a match?

Mnh-mnh.

You're all right.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Hey, what's the big idea?!

Is that your car?

Yes... What's left of it.

I'm terribly sorry.

You are not.
You did it on purpose.

No, honestly.

But you can't blame me
For being mad.

Look at the way
People park.

Well, maybe my fender
Will make you feel better.

Going to lunch?

Yes,
I was on my way.

Take me along?

Want to go
To the coffee mug?

Can we dance?

No, but I promise you music.

All right,
Where is it?

Just a couple blocks.

Let's walk.
All right.

Uh, might not be a bad idea
To move your car.

Well, here we are.

In there?

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Whoa, wait a minute.

You can't park here.
Look at this.

Fireplug?

Oh, I always
Look for a fireplug.

It's the only place
You can park nowadays.

Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.

All right, you win.

Come on, come on,
No one's gonna bite you.

Are you sure?

We hope not.

Here we are.
Sit down right here.

I, uh,
Don't suppose

That you've ever been
In a place like this before.

Oh, yes,
Once with a grandma.

Well, you know,
As a matter of fact,

People come from miles around
Just to try their speciality.

Do they?
What is it?

Well, it isn't an "it,"
It's a "they."

What will you have, folks?

I'll have a "they."

What lovely beans.

Mmm. Tender,
Aren't they, huh?

Mmm, and so young,
It's a shame to eat them.

Mm-hmm.
Mmm, mmm, mmm!

I forgot,
I forgot.

Never let it be said that a
Norton didn't keep his promise.

You're a strange
Young man.

Yeah.
Why do you say that?

Tell me something.
Anything.

Do you make a specialty
Of fighting lost causes,

Or is this workman case
An exception?

Mmm, I may surprise you
And win it.

Oh, nonsense.

No one ever wins
Against the Hamiltons.

Now, that's just one of
The reasons I took the case.

Someone's got to stand up
For a principle.

Oh, so, you're like that.
I might have known it.

Thanks.

It's so boring
To be an extremist.

Think so?
What are you?

I?
Mm-hmm.

Oh, a pleasure-loving child
From the gilded generation.

I love dancing, tennis, music,
Travel, and what have you.

It depends on what extreme
You like, I suppose,

Whether or not
You find it boring.

I see. In other words,
We're both extremists.

Well,
If you like the word.

May I have
The ketchup?

At least we have one thing
In common.

Ketchup?
Mm-hmm.

Let's see, what the deuce
Is it they say now?

Oh, yeah, "a book of verse
Beneath the bough,

A jug of wine,
A loaf of bread..."

"a plate of beans
And thou."

"...and thou."

"and thou beside me
Singing in the wilderness."

Two ham spears on rye!
Make it snappy!

Thou, too.

I'm going to
The tennis matches.

Want to come along?

Oh, I'd like to go,
But I've got to be in court.

Oh, be big
And give in.

Sorry,
Client's waiting.

Well,
Let him wait.

Come on.

Not today.
Oh, all right.

Thanks for
The luncheon anyway.

Don't mention it.

Well,
I like their nerve.

You're not surprised,
Are you?

Yes, I am.
Here, defend me.

Mnh-mnh.
Well, why not?

That's what lawyers
Are for.

Some lawyers.

Won't you give in
About anything?

Well, how can you defend
When there's nothing to defend?

Oh, very well.

You're right,
Mr. Norton.

We're as far apart
As the poles.

We are,
Aren't we?

Bye.
Bye.

Big night
Last night?

Oh, tremendous.

Mm-hmm.
There you are.

Thanks.

There's gonna be
An awful mob here...

The bishops, the stuarts,
Victor Linley.

Yeah, trust Vic
Not to miss a party.

There will be about 200,
Stevens.

Very good,
Miss Hamilton.

Have a big job
Ahead of you.

Well,
The juveniles.

Hello,
Aunt Dell!

Hello,
Everybody!

Hello,
Everybody!

Hurry up.
Hi, aunt Dell!

Hi.
Hi, aunt Dell!

Hello, there, billy.

How are you?
Dell.

Hello, there. Hello.

Oh, you're choking me,
Billy.

Run over
And see grandpa.

Oh, dad, do you mind
If I leave them here today?

It's the maid's afternoon off,
And I've got three engagements.

That means me,
I suppose.

Why,
Aren't you ashamed?

You know they're never
Any trouble.

How's the party coming?

Like a tidal wave.

Here, you open some.
My back is broken.

Let me open some!
I want to open some!

Let me open some.

George, will you take
These hyenas out in the garden

For a bit.

I'm not a hyena,
Mommy.

Neither am i.

Of course you're not.

You're darlings,
But go with daddy.

Come along, nippers,
Let's have a run.

Come on,
Let's run a race.

I'll win
'Cause I run faster than you.

Oh, Dell, you've invited
That young lawyer.

What lawyer?
David Norton.

Oh, is he coming?

According to this,
He is.

Swell.

Is he the young attorney
Who put father in his place

A couple
Of weeks ago?

What's that
You're saying?

I'm sorry.
I take it all back.

David Norton,
Dad.

He's coming
To the party.

You don't mean to say
he's coming here?

Sure.
Why not?

Why, I never heard
Of such a thing.

Well,
He's a nice boy.

Oh, he may be charming,
But what do you know about him?

Not a thing.

But you can't introduce him
To Mrs. Van Renseller.

Why can't I?

What will
People think?

Do I care
What people think?

This is my party,
And I'm gonna have who I like.

Hooray!

But, Dell dear, consider
Mrs. Mrs. Van Renseller.

Oh, darling,
I'm sick of considering her.

If she doesn't like it,
She can leave.

Indeed,
She will.

Good.
Two hoorays!

And as for you,
Young man,

You check up on the wines,
Will you?

Will i?
Mm-hmm.

And what I mean is,

Don't drink it all
While you're checking.

Hello, Dell.
Hello, Mrs. Collins.

How are you?

Hello, Mrs. Butler.
You know Mr. Norton?

How do you do?
How do you do?

Aunt Agatha,
You remember Mr. Norton.

How could I ever forget him?

Oh, ladies, would you
Like something to eat?

I think
It would be lovely.

And would you like to stop
Introducing me to the enemies?

I'm sorry. Really, I am.

I... Oh, dad.

Dad, you remember
Mr. Norton.

Why, how do you do,
Mr. Norton?

How do you do?

David has just been saying

That he's never had
A better time in his life.

Well, now,
That's fine.

Have a good time
While you're young.

Youth is the time
For play.

Ask Dell.
she knows.

Do I!

We're happy to have you
With us this evening.

Thank you, sir.

Well, the evening
Is full of surprises.

You know, I thought
He was gonna bite my head off.

Now, you see?

I'll tell you,
Dad has two sides to him.

I know...
Left and right.

All right, crazy.

Left at business,
Right at home.

Mm-hmm.

Well, if it isn't Dell
And her ambulance chaser.

Solemn-looking owl,
Isn't he?

I'll find out
If he's got a sense of humor

Before the night's over.

Oh, hello, Vic,
How are you?

You know Mr. Norton?
Mr. Linley.

How do you do?
How do you do?

Dell dear, where have you been
For the past week?

I missed you
At the lunch club.

You can blame Mr. Norton.

You know these lawyers.
They're so persuasive.

He's been pleading the case
Of beans vs. Caviar.

And which did you prefer,
Milady?

Caviar.

Have a drink,
Norton?

Yeah, thank you.
Just a moment.

You have a lot more guests
To meet

Before you get
In his condition.

Has he met
The sacred cow yet?

Silly.
Say, speaking of enemies,

Wait till you see
What we have in store for you.

Mrs. Carl Eric Van Renseller.

The big moment.

How do you do?
How do you do?

How do you do,
Mrs. Van Renseller?

How do you do,
Mrs. Van Renseller?

Mrs. Van Renseller,
I'm so glad to see you.

How do you do,
Mrs. Van Renseller?

Hello, Corinne.

Hello, George.

Hello, Dell.

Hello,
Mrs. Van Renseller.

I'd like to present a very good
Friend of mine... Mr. Norton.

How do you do?

Norton? Norton?

Yes, David Norton.

I'm the son of
the Edgar Nortons of newport,

And I believe that you knew
My mother and father.

Not really.

Are you the little boy
That used to pinch me

In his father's
Swimming pool?

I'm afraid I am.

Well, well,
Isn't that funny.

It shows,
After all these years.

Not where I pinched you,
I hope.

Now.
Now, there you go.

Is he still
Acting naughty?

No,
Just a bit difficult

And very busy
Defending the oppressed.

Oh, well,
Isn't that nice.

Do you know, I thought your name
Seemed familiar.

Can't we have
Just a wee drop of champagne

In memory
Of your dear mother?

I knew her
At chantilly.

Oh, uh...

Oh, Dell won't mind. You'll
Excuse us, won't you, dear?

Mm-hmm.
Excuse us, please?

Why, certainly.

You know, I met your mother
At the races.

Well, you could knock me down
With a feather.

Now, there goes
A really charming boy.

You know,
Mrs. Van Renseller,

I'm just beginning to realize
How much I really like you.

This better be
The last one, now.

I always said,
Blood will tell.

Yes, indeed.

Only it's daisies
That never tell.

I-I beg your pardon.

It's daisies
That never tell.

Oh, yes.
Mm-hmm.

Never tell what?

They never
Tell on you.

Oh.
Oh.

Oh, but I prefer gardenias,
Don't you?

Really?

Here,
Some more.

But you can't,
Darling.

Oh, sorry.
I beg your pardon.

I-I was just looking
For a cigarette.

Have you one,
By any chance?

Why, yes,
I think so.

Thank you.
Match?

Oh, no.
I have one, thanks.

Now, what is it you want,
Corinne?

Surely, you're not trying
To censor my morals.

But Dell,
My own sister.

Dell and i
Are just old friends.

You know that.

You love her.

Well, i...
I think she's...

You shan't have her.

You talk as if
I were going to...

Take as much as you can
And give as little as you can.

I know you, Vic,
But this time, you shan't do it.

Do you hear?

Corinne, I want you
To understand one thing...

Once and for all,
We're finished.

Do you understand?
Finished.

Aren't you being rather foolish
To make an enemy of me?

After all,
Dell is my sister.

It wouldn't
Help your chances any

If I should decide
To let her know.

You wouldn't dare.

Oh, wouldn't I?

Aww, now, look here, corie,
Why won't you be a good sport?

We could...

I'm willing to...
If you are.

You've got to be
Good to me.

I'm desperate.

I... I can't live
Anymore without you.

Hey, Norton, why do you mean
By crabbing Dell's party?

Well,
I don't understand.

Don't you know

That you were supposed to be
The headliner here tonight?

You flopped.

Well, maybe I'm dense,
But, still, I don't follow you.

Well, we expected you
To fall over backwards

When you were introduced to
The holy cow and all the calves.

It was to be the topper
Of the evening.

You mean that your sister
Invited me here just for...

Well, certainly.

You ruin it all when you
Turn out to be somebody.

You could have gagged me

When I saw the look
On Dell's face

After old lady Van Renseller
Went for you.

I begin to see.

There you are.

I've been looking
All over for you.

Thank you.

Now, what have you
Been saying to him?

I knew it
All the time.

He hasn't got
Any sense of humor.

You fool.

Now,
What's got into you?

It's been a very entertaining
And instructive evening

In more ways than one.

Thank you very much.
You're welcome.

Now that that's over,
Tell me,

What has Bob
Been telling you?

Something that I should have
Had sense enough

To see through myself.

Goodbye.
Come back here.

Come back!

All right,
Go if you want to be a fool.

Go on.
See if I care.

Acting like babies.

Hello?
Oh, who's calling him, please?

One moment.

Hello?

Miss Hamilton on the wire,
Mr. Norton.

Who?
Yes, well, I'm out.

As a matter of fact,
Whenever she calls, I'm out.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Norton's out.

Oh, yes,
He's out of town.

He won't be back
For a month.

Oh, I see.

Thank you.

oui, mademoiselle?
Get me a dress, annette.

For shopping, mademoiselle?

No, for fighting,
mademoiselle.

Oh.

I agree with you,
Mrs. Polansky,

But you must try and understand,
The Hamiltons are very rich.

They've got
Very shrewd lawyers.

This present postponement
Is for six months,

And they can continue
Involving us in red tape

Almost as long
As they please.

I'm sorry.
Come on, now, come on.

Buck up.

We must have food.
Max is only 9.

Don't you see?

The others
Are too young to work.

Yes, I know,
But look here,

There's a welfare center
In your neighborhood,

And i'll get in touch with them
Just as soon as I possibly can.

Come in, come in.

Miss Hamilton's here,
Mr. Norton.

I told her you're out,

But she heard your voice
And insists on seeing you.

Hamilton.
Hamilton. Hamilton.

There, there, now,
You mustn't get excited.

Why shouldn't i
Get excited?

Where is she?
Now, sit down.

I won't sit down!
I want to see her.

But, look here, she had nothing
To do with the case.

Then why
Is she here?!

I know.
You're not my lawyer.

You're her thief.

You're protecting them
And not me!

Mrs. Polansky...

I don't care
What you tell me.

I want to
Talk to her.

Sorry.

I couldn't help
Overhearing.

Would you close the door,
Miss Edwards, please?

Mr. Norton is right,
Mrs. Polansky.

He's done
Everything he can.

But, you see, um,
My father's rather stubborn,

Especially where principle
Is involved.

Principle?

Yes. He doesn't like
To be browbeaten.

What is principle?

I have babies.

They must have food.

Do you know
How babies look at you

When they want food and you have
No food to give them?

I have five, miss Hamilton.

Five.

Has she
Lost the case?

Postponed.

For how long?

Well, for as long as
Your father wishes, I'm afraid.

Here you are,
Mrs. Polansky.

You take this.

That'll help
For a while anyway.

$100?

Yes, um, i'll send
The same amount each month

Until the case
Is settled.

I can't take $100.

That's all right,
That's all right,

But only one thing I ask...
Keep it quiet...

Deep, dark secret...
Because if my father finds out,

There will be fireworks.
Oh, my.

We'll manage
To keep our secret, won't we?

Come along, now,
And if anything else turns up,

I'll get
In touch with you.

Oh, miss Hamilton. That's all
Right, that's all right.

Thank you so much.
Here we are.

You run along home now
And get those babies some food.

Oh!
Oh, thank you.

It's all right.
Thank you.

Bye.

I want to talk with you.

You know, that was a darn
Nice thing you just did.

Thanks for the sarcasm.

I wasn't
Being sarcastic.

I meant it.

Tell you one thing,
Though...

It's gonna
Hurt your father's case.

I didn't come here to discuss
My father's case.

So, something else,
Then?

Yes. I like you.
Thanks.

You're welcome.

And I have no intentions
Of losing your friendship.

What are you gonna do
About that?

My friendship?

Yes,
Your friendship.

That's the reason I asked you
To the party last night.

That's the reason
I went.

I see.

And that's the reason
You made a scene, I suppose.

Don't you know that Bob
Was kidding you?

Mm, yeah,
Kidding on the level.

Mm-hmm.

Do you swallow your sense
Of humor with your peanuts?

So, I suppose,
This morning,

You thought you'd run over
And scold me.

That it?
Yes.

But being cross
Is too enervating,

So I've decided
To forgive you.

Sweet of me?

Very.

Leave it to a woman
To turn the tables.

Should have studied law.

Hungry?

Mm-hmm.

Want to go
To the coffee mug?

No, let's go to my club.
We can dance.

No,
Not on your life.

Oh, please,
I love dancing at noon.

I never dance
During business hours.

It's too distracting.
Just this once?

Young lady, when I say no,
I mean no.

Now, then,
Aren't you really glad you came?

No.

Oh, good, look,
Just in time.

Miss Hamilton, are you quite
Sure this is what you wanted?

Yes, quite sure,
Thank you.

Is there anything else?
No, thanks.

Yes.

Oh, yes. Ketchup.

Ketchup.

Now that you see what lovely
Beans we serve in this place,

Don't you feel a little bit
Lenient about it?

Nope, but don't let that
Bother you.

I've been running away
From snobbery all my life.

Mm-hmm, I see.

But, of course,
Our viewpoints differ.

It all depends
On what you call snobbery.

Are we gonna have
Another argument?

No.
All right.

But I want to know what
You think you're going to gain

By fighting the world.

Hmm.
You the world?

No,
But I'm part of it.

You idealists have been
Pointing fingers at people

Who eat caviar for years,
But they're still eating caviar.

Oh, I know, they occasionally
Go off their diet,

But they go back to caviar, and
They're still winning lawsuits.

That's all very true,
But you're generalizing.

Occasionally, a man may be
Of use in individual cases.

I'm an individual case.

Are you trying
To convert me?

Mnh-mnh.
You're already converted.

At heart, you're exactly
Like the rest of us.

Mnh-mnh.
Mm-hmm.

Beg pardon,
Miss Hamilton.

Oh, thank you.

Aha.

Victor thinks I'm seeing
Much too much of you.

Victor?
Victor who?

Victor Linley.

I introduced you
To him last night.

Remember?
Oh, yes.

Where's
Mr. Linley sitting?

By the arch.

Oh, there he is,
Sitting with my sister.

Mm-hmm.

I remember.

Uh, tell Mr. Linley i'll be
Delighted to join him

At the opera tonight.
Yes, miss Hamilton.

That's one of the many things
That's wrong with these places.

What?

You never get a chance
To see a person alone.

Why, David, I really believe
You're becoming civilized.

You'll have to
Excuse the mess.

My filipino
Has been out all day.

That's what you get
For not being married.

Oh, Victor, where do we
Find the ginger ale?

Oh, right over there.
Go over and help yourself.

Thanks a lot.

Oh, this is no time
To play roulette.

Whose thought
Of it, anyway?

Bob,
Of course.

That's right,
Blame me all the time.

Hey, Vic,
Have you got a comb?

Sure, right in that room there.
Thank you.

And, Victor,
Another question.

Where should we
Put our things?

In the closet there.

Oh, we really shouldn't have
Come at all.

What's the matter
With you, Corie?

Oh, George has to get up
Early in the morning.

That's never
Bothered you before.

Well, uh,
My head aches.

I... The opera always
Affects me that way.

Oh, cheer up.

Now, come on.

What are
These bets worth?

$1,000.

Now, come on,
Place your bets, everybody.

Well?
Here goes $50 right away.

Feel lucky, Vic?

I'll follow you.
Come on, Bob!

You're missing
The fun!

You're gonna win.
Come on.

All right.
I'm coming.

Uh-oh.

19.
19.

Oh.

Start again.

Well, I'm gonna
Double up.

Bobby,
You have to win.

Come on, Bob,
Get in the game.

I think
I'll have a drink.

Fetch me one.
There's $150.

Is that all?

Here, i'll loan it.

Oh, come on.

17. Come on, 17.

Well,
The bank wins again.

This is certainly
My lucky night.

You can't be
Very lucky at love.

Well, that's just it, Dell.
I'm not.

Now, come on,
Bob, let's go.

I want the bank, I tell you!
No, Bob.

It's time
To go home, dear.

Home? I haven't
Even started yet.

Come on, Vic,
You're a good sport.

Aww, come on, Dell,
Let him have it.

No.
The bank's winning.

I tell you what i'll do.
You owe me $1,000.

I'll shoot you
The whole works,

And then if you win,
You'll break even.

Bob,
Don't you do it.

But 36-1 against him.
He can't win. You're crazy.

Aw, come on, come on,
Somebody, give me a number.

Well,
I always play 33.

33 it is.

Well, that's the last you'll see
Of that $1,000, Vic.

You never can tell.

33.

Am I a swell dish
To set before the king!

Well,
That ends it.

I'll have to write you
An i.o.u.

Come along,
Corinne.

Oh, please don't go.

There's no necessity
For you to go so early.

He's lost
A small fortune.

What will he do?
I don't know.

Listen, why don't you
Speak to Vic?

You know,
If your father hears about this,

There's going to be trouble.

I think I will.
Good night, everyone.

Good night.

Good night, everybody.

Good night.

There you are.

Thanks, Bob.
Hey.

I want you
To do me one favor, now.

This thing has got to be
Kept a secret.

Father's already
Threatened to disown Bob.

Well... How does father
Feel about us?

Us? What do you mean?

Now, Dell,
Why look so blank?

You know
I'm crazy about you.

Well,
That's very nice of you,

But I hardly think this is
The place... What are you doing?

Well, it's all
In the family, isn't it?

What's the difference?
A lot of difference!

You'll get your money back...
Every cent of it!

And you'll get
Something else, too!

Now, Bob, you don't want father
To hear about this.

If that's all father
Ever knows, he'll be lucky!

Pay no attention
To him.

Maybe you think
It's pleasant

To have such
A discreet little sister?

Here,
Take your powder.

In the future, don't leave it
Around on strange pillows!

Why...

Thanks, Bob.

I'd throw this away
If I were you.

I shouldn't have
Let you take the blame.

Oh, that's all right.

Does George suspect?

No. But it... It wouldn't make
Very much difference if he did.

Oh, Corie,
Don't talk like that.

I'm sorry,
I know I shouldn't say it,

But there's no use trying
To fool myself any longer.

I'm not happy.

Oh, darling,
Of course you're not.

I understand that,

But... Well, do you think Victor
Will make you any happier?

What are you gonna do
About him?

I told him I'd get a divorce
If he'd marry me.

Oh, Corie.
And... And will he?

Oh, darling,
You can't go on like this.

You can't.
Take George and go somewhere.

Go anywhere. Go to europe.
Oh, what's the use?

You can't
Fight boredom forever.

But perhaps you won't be
Bored in europe

With new faces and a change
Of atmosphere.

Corie,
You've got to do this.

You've got to.
Think of the children.

I see.

Drinking your joy and drowning
Your sorrows, as usual.

Do you blame me?

Blame you?
Blame you?

Oh,
I should say not.

Making scenes, snooping around
After vanity cases,

And holding me
Up to ridicule,

Besides which you insulted Dave
The other night.

I thank you to keep out of
My affairs entirely after this,

If you can.

I didn't mean
To make a scene with Vic,

But I could have knocked
His dirty, rotten block off.

Well,
What held you back?

You.
You were so nonchalant.

It's the kind of cigarettes
I smoke.

All right,
Kid if you want to.

This is
No kidding matter.

Well, how do you expect me
To act when my own brother...

Because you've got to
Tell me the truth.

Do you really love him?

Love him?
I loathe him.

He's a rotter,
And we all know it,

But what's that got to do
With you, Bob?

Plenty.

Listen, I want you
To promise me one thing...

Don't tell anyone about
That vanity case... No one.

Do you understand?

And then everything
Will be all right.

Bob, wait a minute!
Bob!

Now, calm down
And stop acting like a maniac.

Well,
I can't stand by...

All of this isn't gonna
Do us any good.

But that dirty,
Low rat.

I know, darling.

I agree, but what good
Is the yelling gonna do us?

Bob!

Now, what are you
Gonna do?

Are you gonna let dad
Hear about this?

Bob! Oh, Bob!

All right, dad,
I'm coming.

They're waiting for you
In the billiard room.

Corie?

What do you think
About this mess?

What mess?

Well,
Dell and Vic.

Oh. Oh, that?

Why do you say,
"oh, that?"

As if it didn't
Make any difference?

Well,
It's her own affair.

her affair?
It's ours.

I don't see why.

Why, Corie...
You don't expect me to believe

That Dell deliberately,
Of her own free will,

Would cheapen herself.

Bob, you're getting
All excited over nothing.

Nothing?!
Is that what you call it?

Well, i... I don't believe
There's a word of truth in it.

All right,
Then why did she try

To keep me from going to Vic's
Apartment last night?

Why did Vic tear up that i.o.u.
Just because she asked him to?

Well, she didn't.
She did!

Why did Vic say it was
All in the family?

Just because I happened to find
Her vanity case on his pillow.

Just because
You happened to find

Her vanity case
On his pillow

Doesn't necessarily imply all
The things that you're saying.

Oh,
It doesn't?

Well, then you don't know
Vic Linley.

But Dell
Isn't a child anymore.

She has
A perfect right.

So, that's what you think
Of her?! Well, I don't!

Even if she was
In love with him,

I wouldn't believe it,
But she isn't. She hates him.

She hates the sight of him.
She told me so herself.

I know what it is.
He's threatening her.

He's trying to
Force himself upon her

Just because
Of my gambling!

Oh, Bob,
Wait a minute.

You're not sure.
I'm not?!

Well, i'll show you
Whether I am or not!

The dirty son of...
Bob!

What? Oh, Bob,
Wait a minute.

Now, what are you
Going to do?

Bob, no! Don't.

What is it?

Bob!

Now,
Where's he going?

He's going over
To have it out with Vic.

What's his number?
University-4161.

I tried to stop him,
But I couldn't.

He'll make a scene.

It'll get in the papers.
Then what?

Don't worry, don't worry.
We'll get him.

Doesn't answer.
Are you sure they're ringing?

Yes, listen.

I'm going over
To get Bob.

- now, Corie, wait.
- Corinne!

Oh, what is it
You want, George?

She's just gone
To powder.

Well, I'm tired
And I want to go home.

All right, just a minute,
I'll tell her.

Corinne, Corinne, stop, stop.
George is coming.

Give me my coat.
I'll go.

You don't have to powder,
Darling.

George wants
To go home.

Well, where are you going,
Young lady?

I thought you told me
You weren't going out tonight.

I just thought
Of a sudden date, dad.

Trust me
For surprises.

Corie, call me up
When you get home.

I'll be back in an hour.

Cab,
Mr. Linley?

Just make it snappy,
Will you?

I'm in a hurry.

It's a bad night
For cabs, sir.

Yes, it is.

I guess I'd better run up to
The corner and get one for you.

Do that, will you?

Hey, taxi!
Come here.

No,
You don't.

Oh, hello, Bob.
What's the matter?

Plenty. You're gonna listen
To me for a while.

You've gotten away

With just about all
You're going to around here.

What are you
Talking about?

Let go of my arm,
Will you?

You're drunk.
Am i?

I want the truth
About my sister.

What do you mean,
Your sister?

You know what I mean.
Now, listen, Bob.

If you're going to argue...
I'm not going to argue!

I want the truth,
I tell you, or I'm going to...

Keep your shirt on. We can't talk here.
Why can't we?!

Because we can't,
You little fool.

Come up
To the apartment.

Mr. Linley?

Well, i'll be.

Is Mr. Linley here?

He was here
A minute ago, miss.

I just ran up
And got a taxi for him.

I guess
He's gone upstairs.

Well,
I'll just make sure.

I'll let that taxi go.

Bob!

Sis.
Sis, I've done it.

I've done it!

Well, answer this,
And you can go.

All right,
What is it?

Did either of you know
Where he was going last night

When he took that cab?

Out to
Get a shoeshine.

Now,
How should I know?

My brother and I never
Left this house last night.

Thank you very much,
Miss Hamilton.

Just one more question.
No!

Let's have a picture,
Please.

No!
We'll be back.

No. All
Right, come on, boys.

Thanks very much.

Oh, hello, dad.

What's the meaning
Of this?

Meaning of what?
Haven't you read the papers?

Yes.

Terrible,
Isn't it?

Poor Bob.
He's awfully upset.

I want to know why.
Why?

Well,
Why shouldn't he be?

Come on,
Let's have breakfast.

Dell, you lied
To those reporters.

You did
Go out last night.

I saw you myself.

Well, why, yes,

But I don't see any reason
Why I should tell them.

It'd only involve us
In a lot of publicity.

Do you mean you can't
Explain where you were?

I went for a walk.

In the rain?
In the rain.

According to the papers,

They're looking for a woman
Of medium size,

In a raincoat and hat
Like yours.

Is that all?

No. She arrived at the Linley
Apartment house on foot.

All soaking wet,
I suppose.

This is no joke.

It may
Be serious.

The papers would love to
Have a fling at my expense.

Precisely.

I thought of that,
Too.

Of course we'll do everything
We can to help,

But it does
Seem a shame,

Just because Victor Linley
Was a friend of ours,

That we should be subjected
To a lot of notoriety.

Well, have no fear,
Courtney.

I understand
Your position perfectly,

And i'll save you from
Any annoyance that I can.

Thank you.

I'll see you
At the club sunday, eh?

As usual.
All right.

Goodbye.
Goodbye.

Are we to understand
You're dropping the case?

Now, get it straight,
Segall.

I'm dropping nothing.

Oh, you're just letting it
Fall down, you mean?

I resent that.

I followed every clue
That has been offered.

We're at
A standstill.

If you or the record
Can find any new facts,

Bring them in.

If I or the record find any new
Facts, this is the last place

We'll bring them, Mr. Mills.
What's that?

You'll read them
In the paper, Mr. Mills.

Better subscribe
Right now.

Sorry.
There isn't a thing.

Sorry.

Read all about it!

Read all about it!

Get your papers!

We're certainly becoming
Concert fans, week after week.

Well, don't you realize
That I'm courting you?

I'm saying it
With symphonies.

You think
Music helps?

Always leaves me
In the clouds.

Read a morning paper! Paper!

Paper, mister?
Paper, mister? Paper?

Big society scandal...
Linley murder case reopens!

Linley murder case reopens!
Morning paper!

Read about it
In your extra morning paper!

Linley murder case
Reopened?!

Get one.
Hey, here.

Thank you.
Let me see.

Mm-hmm.
Extra morning paper!

Read about it!

Read all about it!

Paper?

Read about it
In the extra morning paper!

Read about it
In the extra morning paper!

Well,
Of all the nerve.

What does this mean?

Oh, it doesn't
Mean anything, Dell.

I met one of the reporters
In the courtroom,

And we started talking.

Extra morning paper!
About the murder?

Yes, but, heavens,

I never dreamed he'd make
A story out of it.

I merely
Made an observation.

Your car, sir.

Oh, thanks.

Linley murder case reopened!

Extra morning paper!

Paper, sir? Paper?
Extra morning paper!

Big society scandal!

Linley murder case reopened!
Morning paper!

It's so foolish
To talk to reporters.

Anyone should know
Better than that.

I know,
But using my name...

They'd use anything
For a headline.

...and say that I've accused the
District attorney of negligence.

Boy, that's serious.

Of course it's serious,
But you said it, didn't you?

Yes, I did.

I believe that Mills
Has been very negligent.

What does he do?

He questions the doorman,
Who says he wasn't quite sure

Whether or not
He could recognize the girl,

And then drops the case.

And I suppose you mentioned that
To the reporters, too, eh?

I believe so, yes, but,
Still, that's no reason for...

Oh, David,
It's every reason.

Now the only thing
That you can do

For having been
So undiplomatic

Is to say you never spoke
To the reporter.

Huh? It's a bit too late
For that, I'm afraid.

Ohh.

Ah, but, now,
Don't you worry, Dell.

It isn't going to do me
A bit of harm.

As a matter of fact,
It may do a great deal of good.

I shouldn't mind starting
A little public housecleaning.

Well, that's one way
Of achieving prominence.

I don't want prominence.

And, gosh, it makes you sick
To see all the graft.

It's high time
That a few steps were taken.

I see, "a little child
Shall lead them."

Oh, now, darling,
Let's forget all about it.

What's the use?

What's the matter?

Oh, nothing.

Well, now, Dell,
Don't be angry with me.

Look at me.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I guess I'm just a bore
After all.

Oh, it isn't that,
David,

But we just can't seem to
Get together on a point of view.

Why, just because
I'm interested in humanity?

Men are only
Interested in humanity

When they fail to be interested
In any one member of it.

That isn't true.
Oh, Dave.

It isn't.
I swear, it isn't.

I'd do anything
In the whole world for you.

Yes, if it didn't
Interfere with...

It wouldn't
Make any difference.

I'd do anything.

How do you know
You would?

I know, because...
Because I love you.

Read all about it!

Read all about it!

Paper! Paper!

Paper! Paper!

Paper!

Hello. Hal?
Hello. Oh, boy, randall.

Baby, this is our lucky day.

Now, take this as a lead
For the night edition.

"in order to place
Doorman Mulligan's testimony

"in legal order, the record
Has engaged the services

"of David Norton,
Brilliant young attorney.

"Mulligan will appear before
Norton and a notary public

During the day
And spill all he knows."

Yeah. How do you like
Those bananas, huh?

Well, I hope
You're satisfied.

Well, I don't understand
Your attitude at all, Dell.

The newspaper
Engages me

To do a straightforward bit
Of legal work,

And you, rather than be
Happy about it,

Take it as
A personal affront.

David,
Don't do it, please.

I beg of you, don't do it.
Well, why not?

I have my reasons,
Believe me.

Please, Dave,
Don't go any further with it.

Well, good heavens, Dell,
From the way that you're acting,

One would suspect that
Some of your personal friends

Are mixed up in it.

Well...
That's just it.

Yes, but, surely, Dell,
Just because

Some of your fair-weather
Friends are involved,

You needn't expect me to give up
Every principle that I have.

Do you call me
Fair-weather?

I don't understand.

Well... The night that Victor
Was shot, I went out for a walk.

I was near his apartment house
When it started to pour.

There weren't
Any taxis around,

So I thought I'd go in there
For a minute.

The night that Linley
Was shot, you...

Yes, yes, I went in there
For shelter.

The doorman saw me go in,
But he didn't see me leave.

Now do you understand?

Oh, yes, Dell,
But why did you...

There was no one there...
No one... No witnesses.

If you don't believe me,
No one else will.

Oh, yes,
Of course, but i...

Please, Dave, don't let them
Go any further.

I'm scared.

Boys, I want you to meet
John Mulligan.

Shake hands
With the boys, john.

John is down here to make
A detailed statement, boys.

You're going to see
A lot of john

When the new d.a.
Takes office.

John is all set
For an important place

On one of the
Investigating staffs.

Isn't that right,
John?

Oh, that's fine.

Oh, yes,
John knows life.

His motto is, "take care of me,
And I take care of myself."

Isn't that right,
John?

There, now, there.
You look fine.

I'm so worried, Dave.

Now,
Pull yourself together.

Run along home and just
Give me a little time

To think this thing over,
And i'll square it.

Come on.
There you go.

John's going to be
A great help.

Well, i'll be a...

Mr. Norton.

It's the doorman,
David.

I'm afraid
He recognized me.

Shh! Quiet.
Here, come on here.

Out the back way.

Run down the back hall
And go on home.

I'm so scared.
Now, don't be.

And don't talk
To anyone.

I'll take care
Of everything.

I don't want any mistakes.
Are you sure that's the gal?

Am I sure?
Just as sure as I see you.

I got one good hint at her,
And that's the girl.

Now, be careful.
That's Dell Hamilton.

I don't care
What Dell it is.

That's the dame.
Give me that phone.

The city editor!
Wait a minute!

Give me a break!
Give me that phone!

Pick it up.
Come on.

Hello, scotty?

Scotty,
Get this, will ya?

And get it right.

The dame in the Linley murder
Is Dell Hamilton.

Yeah, you know,
The millionaire's daughter.

That's right.
Step on it.

Oh, what a break.
What... And what a boy.

What a boy.

Come on, john.
Come on.

Yes?

Mr. Mills,
Mr. David Norton is here.

Oh, send him in.

You wanted to see me,
Mills?

Yes, Norton.
Sit down, won't you?

Well, what was it that
You wanted to see me about?

Well, you've made quite
A splash, haven't you?

Sentiment's pretty strong
Against me.

Is that the reason
For my being here?

Partly.

The newspapers
Seem to think

That you ought to have
All the credit for this case,

And I'm inclined
To agree with them.

Everybody knows
That Courtney Hamilton

Has been a lifelong friend
Of mine,

And I couldn't
In all fairness

Prosecute a member
Of his family.

Consequently,
I've decided to yield

To the desire
Of the public

And appoint you
Deputy district attorney.

What?

Yes.

And give you carte blanche
In the Linley case.

Well, before you go
Any farther, Mr. Mills,

I refuse
The appointment.

Why?
Never mind why.

I refuse.

You can't refuse.

I've already informed the press
That you've accepted.

I'll contradict it.

Then i'll tell
All the facts.

You started this fuss.

You cooked it up
To embarrass me and my office.

Now I'm leaving it
Right on your doorstep.

And if you fail
To gain conviction,

Your goose is cooked...
Politically and every other way.

I wish you
The best of luck.

I won't let you take the blame.
Do you hear me? I won't.

But Bob,
Why get so excited?

I've told you a dozen times

That David's gonna
Take care of anything.

But don't you see? I'm not gonna let
Them hound you like this anymore.

I've got to
Do something.

Darling, whatever you do,
You'll only make matters worse.

Can't you realize that...
What is it, Stevens?

Mr. Norton has called,
Miss Hamilton.

Oh, have him come in.

Now, listen, Bob,
Buck up.

Don't let him
See you this way.

Hello, David.
I'm glad to see you.

Hello, Adell.

Listen, Bob's all upset over
What happened this afternoon.

I've been telling him
It didn't mean anything.

Now, you tell him.
Perhaps he'll believe you.

Well, I wish I could
Tell him.

What do you mean?

Well, it means,
Dell,

That you've been summoned
Before the grand jury.

Oh, David.
Grand jury?

Do you mean
Adell's got...

Now, listen, Bob, be quiet.
What does that mean, David?

It means you're going to
Be questioned.

Oh.

Well,
What will I say?

We'll tell your story
Exactly as you told it to me

Simply and sincerely
And you've got nothing to fear.

You're a victim
Of circumstances.

Very well then, the jury
Must believe in your innocence.

But unfortunately,
You can't prove it.

I know. That's just it...
I can't prove it.

You believe in me,
Don't you?

I do.

Well, you'll make them
Believe in me, won't you?

I won't be able to, Dell.

You see, I've been forced
To accept the post

Of special prosecutor
Of the case.

You...

You've been what?

Adell,
I was forced into it.

There was no...
Oh, don't explain.

Don't explain.

So, you've been
Forced into it.

Yes, I know.
But if I could only...

Don't you touch me.

So, you were the man
I had faith in,

The man who'd do anything
In the world for me

Because he loved me.

Well, there's just one thing
In the world

I want you to do for me,
And that's get out!

Bob.

Police headquarters?

Bob!
Wait a minute, Bob!

This is robert Hamilton
Speaking.

Bob,
Wait a minute!

427 oxford place.
Bob!

I want to confess
To the murder of Victor Linley.

That's right.
Bob, stop it!

Put that down!
Let go!

Bob, don't!

You heard what I said,
Didn't you?

Put that down, Bob!
I'll wait for you here.

Bob! Ohh, why did you
Do that?

Today, the Hamilton murder trial
Got underway

With the taking
Of routine testimony

As to the finding
Of Linley's body,

The manner of death,
And so on.

And that's all the news
I could gather from hollywood

Until tomorrow.

And now, I want to take you
To the Hamilton murder trial.

The star witness will be young
Hamilton's sister, Dell,

The mystery girl
Who entered the apartment

Just before Linley's body
Was discovered.

Waiting her turn
To take the stand,

Dell Hamilton, paler than usual.

They say that rouge
Is upsetting to the jury.

Dell Hamilton
Takes the stand tomorrow,

And if I don't miss my guess,

We'll finally
Arrive at the truth

In the famous Linley
Murder case.

My dears, you should have been
In the courtroom today.

Dell Hamilton
Has been identified

As the mysterious girl
Who was seen

Going into the apartment house
Just before the murder.

And, my dears, she had on
The sheerest stockings

You have ever seen.

Why did she go there?
Why did her brother kill Linley?

Or did he only say
He killed Linley

In order to protect
Someone else?

When Dell Hamilton
Was identified

As the girl in the raincoat,

Bob Hamilton promptly
Confessed to the murder.

I caught the glance of a juryman

Gazing into
Her mediterranean blue eyes.

Tomorrow, you will have
The answer to these questions.

But you take the witness stand
Tomorrow!

Don't you realize that?
Yes.

Unless we have your confidence,
I can't prepare a defense.

But I've told you
Everything I know.

Dell, don't you see it's time
To make a clean rest of it?

We only want to help you.

Yes, yes.
Dad, I know it.

But don't worry about me.
Worry about Bob.

Help him.
He's the one in jail.

They're inferring
He's shielding you.

Oh,
That's ridiculous.

Ridiculous
And not ridiculous.

You're the one they saw,
Not Bob.

You're the last person seen to
Enter that apartment building.

No one
Saw you leave.

The body was found a few moments
After you were seen to enter.

They'll force you to tell
Everything that happened.

I've told you 1,000 times,
I've told you everything!

I'm warning you.

Norton won't believe you.

He'll force you to tell more,
And we'll be left unprepared.

There is no more
To tell.

I have nothing further
To tell you or Norton.

Miss Hamilton,
Where were you

The night that Victor Linley
Was murdered?

At home.

Did you leave there?
Yes.

About 10:30,
I went out for a walk.

Did you stop
Along the way?

I did.
Where?

At the apartment house
Where Victor Linley lived.

Why?
It was raining.

I see, and you stepped in
For shelter.

Is that it?
Yes.

Ohh, it had only been raining
For two hours.

Don't that worry you?

Can't you see Norton's
Just leading her on?

Why did you want to see
Mr. Linley?

Well, as I remember it,

I thought a nice,
Hot drink of something

Would be good for me
About then.

Mm-hmm.
And did you get it?

I did not.
Why?

Mr. Linley was not in.

How did you know?

I went to his apartment,
And I rang the doorbell.

There was no answer,
So I left.

How?
By the elevator.

Is that all
That happened?

That's all
That happened.

Miss Hamilton, of course,
You realize that your brother

Has confessed to the murder
Of Victor Linley?

I do.

And you further realize
That in spite of that fact,

He may be innocent
And trying to shield someone?

I object, your honor!

We are not interested
In the witness' state of mind.

Objection sustained.

I was merely trying to impress
Upon the witness, your honor,

That she inform us simply
And honestly as to the events

Surrounding her visit
To Victor Linley's apartment,

Since the fact that
She was in the place

At about the time
Of the murder

Has placed her
Under some suspicion.

We may assume
That the young lady

Realizes that fact
For herself.

Proceed.

The police have testified
That your brother

Called them on the telephone
To tell them

That he had killed
Victor Linley.

Now, what were the events
Leading up to this action?

Well, my brother
Had just discovered

That I was the woman last seen
To enter the apartment house

Where Victor Linley's body
Was found.

He hadn't any suspicion
Of this fact before?

No.

It came as
A complete shock to him.

When the newspapers announced

That there was
A mysterious woman

Seen in the apartment house
At the time of the shooting,

I kept quiet,
Perhaps foolishly.

And this silence
Led my brother to believe

That I had something
I could not tell.

Miss Hamilton,
Was there any connection

Between your visit
And Victor Linley's death?

No. No.
None at all.

I see.

Then you ask us to believe
That your visit

Had nothing to do
With his murder,

Either as an event
Leading up to it

Or in any connection
With the death itself?

In other words, your visit
Was sheer coincidence.

You ask us to believe that,
Is that it?

Yes. I ask you
To believe that.

Oh, boy.

Oh, boy!

This is
Where Norton starts.

Watch him
Tear into this.

The prosecution rests.

No further questions,
Your honor.

Well, I'll be!

Justice!
Justice!

Hello!
Get me randall!

Randall, yeah!
Randall?

Norton threw the case.
He threw the case, I tell you.

Sure, the crowd's in an uproar.

No, no,
He didn't ask her anything.

Just led her on.
That's all.

It's a frame-up.
Ruin him, if you can.

Plaster it
All over the front page.

Attaboy.
Step on it.

He's hot, Linley!
Give it all!

Order in the court.

Order!

Take the witness, Mr. Mitchell.

Oh.

No questions,
Your honor.

Witness excused.

Your honor.

Order!

Order! Order!

As foreman of the jury,
I'd like to clear up a point

That's been bothering
My fellow jurymen and myself.

What is it?

Have I the right
Under the law

To ask the witness
A few questions?

It is
Within your rights.

You are to determine the guilt
Or innocence of the accused.

If your questions
Are legally admissible,

I will allow the witness
To answer.

Miss Hamilton,
Take the stand again.

Proceed.

I believe you said,
Miss,

That you went up to Mr. Linley's
Apartment in the elevator.

I did.

Did you come down
In the same elevator?

Why, yes, i...
I mean, no.

I crossed the hall and came down
The other elevator.

Oh, then there were
Two elevators

And you didn't see
The body of Mr. Linley

In the elevator
That you came down in.

I don't know anything
About the body!

I came down
The other elevator!

Your honor, that's a lie.

Bailiff, bring that man
To the bar.

I should punish you
For contempt of court, sir.

I can't help it,
Your honor.

I tell you,
She's lying.

I object to the whole
Proceedings, your honor!

Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

Judge,
I can prove it.

There's only one elevator
In the house.

So, if miss Hamilton
Came down the elevator

Within a few moments
After you saw her go up,

She must have ridden
With the body of Linley.

Is that what you mean?
Sure.

One elevator's
All we've got.

Miss Hamilton, you'll please
Step aside for the time being,

But under no circumstances
Leave the courtroom.

Take the stand, Mulligan.

I wish your statement
To be put on record.

Wait a minute,
Your honor!

I wish
To change my testimony.

What's that?

I lied before.
I did see Mr. Linley.

I saw his body
In the elevator that night,

And I saw my brother
Standing over it

And I heard my brother say,
"I've done it, sis.

I've done it."

My brother
Did kill Linley.

He killed him
Because he had reason to believe

That the honor
Of my name demanded it.

Oh, no,
I can't let her do it!

Be quiet, Corinne.

You don't know
Anything about it.

You mean your brother discovered
You and Linley were...

Yes.
He had proof of it.

Come. Come, miss Hamilton.
You must be more explicit.

Relate in detail what happened
On that particular night.

Paper!

I'm sorry, sir.
She's not at home.

Where is she,
Stevens?

I'm sorry, sir.

She's not at home.

Stevens,
Were you ever in love?

Yes, sir.

Where is she?

She sails tomorrow night
On the bremen.

How do you do,
Miss Hamilton?

My name's baxter...
the american.

We'd like to know
Where you're going.

To my estate.

Oh, come on now,
Miss Hamilton.

Sorry.

Oh, please, don't say you're
Tongue-tied, miss Hamilton.

Dell, I wish you wouldn't
Look so depressed.

I'm not depressed.
Well, you shouldn't be.

We're going to have
Such a lovely voyage.

Look.

The Allens, the Butlers,
The Bainbridges,

And carters
Are all on board.

Yes, I know.

And what with dodging
Their looks of sympathy

And side-stepping our jubilant
Neighbors next door,

It looks just as you say...

As though we're going to
Have a lovely voyage.

Why, Dell.

Darling, if you don't stop
"why, Dell" ing me,

I'll jump overboard.

Why, Dell!

Oh, aunt Agatha,
I just want to be left alone

For just a few minutes.

Dell, dear,
What's the matter?

Oh, I don't know.

Everything seems
All muddled up.

Somehow, all the things
That I've thought important

All my life have taken on
A different value.

People, parties,
And, oh, I don't know,

My whole outlook on life
Has changed.

Well, I'm glad you've come
Around to my way of thinking.

I think i'll go up on deck
A few minutes.

Mind?

Dell!
Wait, Dell!

Wait a minute!

All ashore that
Are going ashore!

Why don't you
Do something?

Madame, we're doing
Everything that we can.

We've searched the ship
Everywhere,

And miss Hamilton
Is not aboard.

Not aboard?
Then she's jumped overboard.

She said she'd do it!

Stop the ship!
Stop the ship!

Madame,
That's impossible.

Why, I never heard
Of such a thing!

Stop this ship,
I tell you!

I want to get off!
Stop the ship!

Stop the ship!
Stop the ship!

Are we going to
Have another argument?

No.
All right.

But I'd to know how you knew
I was lying.

Well,
If you insist.

The night
Of your party,

I saw Vic Linley
And your sister together,

And two and two
Make four.

Even to a lawyer.

Mm-hmm.

I don't want to bother
You two love birds,

But for the 15th time, is there
Anything else you want?

Yes.
Some ketchup.
