[Theme music]

Love, exciting and new.

Come aboard.

We're expecting you.

And love, life's
sweetest reward.

Let it flow.

It floats back to you.

The love boat, soon we'll
be making another run.

The love boat promises
something for everyone.

Set a course for adventure,
your mind on a new romance.

And love won't hurt anymore.

It's an open smile
on a friendly shore.

It's love.

Welcome aboard.

It's love.

Oh, fellows, wait
till you see her.

This girl is really something.

She must be.

I've never seen you
so turned on, doc.

I've never seen
him turned off.

Adam.

[Kissing]

Mona, honey.

You just don't know how I've
been looking forward to this.

Oh, you're playing my song.

But I'll tell you what.

Why don't we go up to my cabin,
and you can help me unpack.

Or we could go to my cabin.

But you don't have to unpack.

Right.

It'll save us time.

Mona, honey.

Excuse me.

Could we go ahead of you, sir?

My wife is expecting.

We're Mr. and Mrs.
Arthur talmadge.

Well, hello.

Yes.

Yes, you're on this
deck, promenade 340.

How far is it from
the doctors office?

Oh, Arthur.

Well, let's see.

Your cabin is toward the stern.

And the doctor's mid-ship
about four decks down.

Now that is good enough.

Could we get a cabin a
little bit closer, please?

Oh, Arthur, for heaven's sake.

I'm due for over two months.

Two months.

I think your cabin's
close enough.

[Music playing]

You see that girl?

She wants me.

Who?

That lady didn't
even look at you.

Ah, you noticed, huh?

Yeah.

Yeah, they all use
that old ignoring trick.

You'd think they
try something new.

Gentleman.

There's a Ms. Bradley
coming aboard.

I'm told she is an
important designer.

So show her the
usual courtesies.

One fruit basket
coming up, captain.

Yes, and arrange a
suitable dinner on deck, sir.

Linda: Excuse me.

I'm Linda Bradley.

You're Linda Bradley?

Well, welcome aboard.

You're in promenade 101.

Oh, thank you.

I'm captain merrill stubing.

Oh.

Uh, the passageways
can be confusing.

May I escort you?

Oh, that's very kind,
but you must be so busy.

No.

Sir, before you go,
if you've got a minute--

is the ship sinking?

No.

Then I don't have a minute.

[Music playing]

Well, hello.

Your name please?

Uh, Harper, Harrison Harper.

Ok, yes, you're in cabin
f131 on the fiesta deck.

Oh, see, I was kind of
hoping to keep away from people

this cruise.

Fiesta deck, that sounds like
it might be a little too loud

and festive for me.

Would you have anything called
the, uh, peace and quiet deck?

Well, maybe we
can move you later.

Enjoy your cruise, Mr. Harper.

Thank you.

Julie: Hello.

Hello.

I'm judge joanne Atkinson.

Well, welcome
aboard, your honor.

Thank you.

Uh, excuse me.

Did that gentleman say
his name was Harper?

Yes, Harrison Harper.

Do you know him?
- Yes, I do.

And I'm going to keep
remembering him for two more

years, because that's the amount
of time I put him on probation.

Oh?

Oh, not that
kind of probation.

No, uh, Mr. Harper we
brought in my court

for marrying too many women.

It's more than the law allows.

That nice, nervous
little man was a bigamist.

No, that nice, nervous
little man is a trigamist.

[Ship's horn blaring]

[Music playing]

Are you a professional
artist, too, Ms. Bradley?

Well, hello.

Hi.

Uh, no, I'm a designer by
trade and an artist for kicks--

and a golfer just
to keep me humble.

Hm.

Take notes, Vicki.

I think I just met an
almost perfect woman.

Vicki: Yes, sir.
- Here you are.

Oh.

Almost?

Well, perfection
includes cooking.

And I don't think you--

uh, correction.

I just happen to
be a gourmet cook.

I don't believe it.

Now would I lie about
a thing like that?

Can you make a baked Alaska?

Kid stuff-- one arm
tied behind my back.

Wow!

I'm impressed.

Vicki, I think maybe your
father's falling in love.

Uh-uh, careful, captain.

You know how women are
about men in uniform.

Hm.

Well, what do you think?

Oh, I like it.

Uh, dad--

[music playing]

Hm?

--It's time for my
navigation lesson.

Oh, uh, Vicki, uh,
can we do that later?

Right now, I'd like to challenge
Ms. Bradley to some ping pong.

There must be
something she can't do.

I'll play winner.

Vicki, don't ruin that sketch.

Find gopher, and
get a frame for it.

Come on.

Let's see how you can
handle a real challenge.

You got a deal.

[Music playing]

We shouldn't have come.

Oh, Arthur, I wanted
to come on this cruise.

After the baby's born,
we won't have the time.

Believe me.

I'm fine.

So please, let's just
relax, and enjoy the trip.

How can I relax
when I know you're

going to give birth any minute.

Arthur.

You know, in my family,
all the babies are premature.

I was born on an airplane.

My brother was born
in dodger stadium.

And my sister was born in a
restaurant between the salad

and the lamb chops.

I'll be right back.

Excuse me.

Could you call the doctor?

Well, certainly.

Is there some sort of emergency?

Yes, my wife is having a baby.

Oh.

Uh, Dr. Bricker, please.

This is an emergency.

Thank you.

Uh, he's in his cabin.

They're connecting me now.

Thank you.

[Music playing]

Mona.

Mm.

[Phone ringing]

Dr. Bricker.

Now?

[Scoffs]

I'll be right back.

[Kissing]

Mind my place.

Mr. Harper?

Yes?

Mr. Harper, I'm judge akinson,
the judge who sentenced you.

Oh, I'm glad to see you.

Uh, most of these tours
seem to feature churches.

Would you maybe go with me?

Go with you?

For protection, of course.

See, every time I've
ever gone into a church,

I come out married--

except once.

Oh, what happened that time?

It was a funeral.

But then I went
up to the window,

and I said I was sorry
about her husband.

The next thing you
know, I was him.

Mr. Harper, you said
you were glad to see me.

Why would you be glad to see
the judge who sentenced you?

Well, I broke the law.

And you, as a judge, were
sworn to enforce that law.

You can't have people running
around breaking the law.

If you have such
respect for the law,

why did you break the law by
marrying three women at once?

I didn't mean
to break the law.

I didn't even want
to get married once.

But I had to.

Had to?

Well, see, they all asked
me, and I couldn't say no.

I didn't want to
hurt their feelings.

So what you're saying
is you weren't guilty.

Oh, I was guilty,
guilty of wanting

three women to have a husband if
they wanted one and needed one.

Like, see, uh, it
just so happens

that my wanting three
women not to be lonely

was against the law.

And-- i-- that's-- uh.

If judging other people
were against the law,

you'd be in a terrible fix.

That's not the
same thing at all!

Mr. Harper, I'm warning you.

I'm going to be watching
you very closely.

Most women do.

[Music playing]

Mr. Doc, i--

in a minute, Julie.

Mrs. Talmadge, have
you started labor yet?

Uh, no, and I don't
plan to for two months.

Well, it certainly took
you long enough to get here.

Oh, Arthur.

Doctor, I am terribly sorry.

I'm having the baby, and
he's having the labor pains.

You mean there's no emergency.

No, doc.

You see, Mr. Talmadge
gave me a false alarm.

Excuse me.

But if this had
been the real thing,

you would have had to have
made much better time.

I was making very
good time where I was.

If you'll excuse me.

Forgive me, doctor.

But are you were an
accredited doctor?

I mean, did you go to a real
medical school and graduate?

Arthur.

That's all right.

I actually have a
diploma in my office.

I could xerox a copy
for you if you like.

Have you ever
delivered any babies?

Quite a few.

Ah, the mothers and
children all did well.

And even most of the
fathers survived.

Dr. Bricker, in
case of emergency,

I want to know where
you are at all times.

Excuse me?

When did you say the baby's due?

Well, my doctor
figures about nine weeks.

Nine weeks.

In nine weeks, I'll be
vacationing in Rio de Janeiro.

But you'll be able to get me.

I'll be wearing a beeper.

[Music playing]

Good afternoon, Mr. Harper.

Oh, good afternoon.

I hope you're not planning
to marry that women.

I have never planned
on marrying any of them.

It just happened.

You know, I sit down.

I drop my book.

She picks it up.

I say thank you.

She offers to buy me a drink.

And the next thing you know,
I'm down at the city hall

standing there swearing
to love, and honor

for the rest of
my life this lady

who just picked up my book.

You know what I wish?

What?

I wish sometimes they'd
let me pick up my own book.

That's what I wish.

Hey, you could do me me a favor.

What?

Wait here in a little while.

And when that lady
comes back, tell her,

please don't make me marry her.

Oh, Mr. Harper, no woman
can make you marry her.

Besides, she just met you.

That's always the first step.

Well, I think you can defend
yourself-- and you'd better.

[Music playing]

Oh, you play a mean game
of ping pong, captain.

You fooled me.

I thought sailors only
drank and chased women.

Well, here's one
who does neither.

I'm a whiz card tricks
and do a great Cary Grant.

Oh, you do?

The complete renaissance man.

Well, I hope your wife
appreciates all those talents.

I don't have one of those.

Uh-oh.

Old foot-in-the-mouth
did it again, huh?

Of course not.

I, uh--

I wasn't just being nosy.

I know you weren't.

You do know, don't you?

I don't think there's
anything you could

ask me that I'd mind answering.

No, at the moment,
there's nobody in my life.

Vicki's mother
died some time ago.

Oh, I'm sorry.

And it still hurts?

Not as much as it did.

I don't think I'll
ever really forget her.

But the big hurt is over.

And of course, you have Vicki.

She's darling.

[Chuckling]

Yes, I have Vicki.

She makes everything
worthwhile to me.

I'm very glad to
meet you, captain.

The pleasure is
mine, all mine.

Would you have dinner
with you me tonight?

I'd love to.

That sounds great.

[Music playing]

Hi, have you seen my dad?

Um, let's see.

The last I saw him--

yeah, he and Linda
were playing ping pong.

But that was hours ago.

Nobody knows where they are.

Oh, them?

I wouldn't worry about them.

I'm sure they're
around someplace.

Julie.

Yes, sir?

Hello, honey.

Julie, would you
tell gopher to arrange

for Linda to be seated at my
table for all meals, please?

Oh, I'd love to, sir.

But, uh, there are no
vacancies at your table.

You're all filled up.

Oh.

Well, then tell them to
move one of our crewman.

Vicki: Dad?

You're still going to take
me ashore at mazatl n.

You bet!

It's going to be
you and me together.

We'll have a ball.

[Kissing]

Well, I got to go.

Linda's waiting for me.

Mm-hmm.

I think I see stars in
the old captain's eyes.

You think he's hooked?

Like Charlie the tuna.

[Music playing]

You know, it was
really a nice coincidence

to have them sitting both
of us at the same table.

Oh, it wasn't a coincidence.

I asked to sit with you.

I want to see what this charm is
that you have for other women,

which totally escapes me.

Well, if you get it figured
out, I wish you'd tell me.

And I can just turn it off.

And then I won't have to keep
getting married all the time.

Well, you'll be the first
to know if I find even

an ounce of charm.

You know, there is
one thing about me that

might appeal to a lot of women.

Oh?

Uh, they seem to
think I'm helpless.

Oh, well, helplessness
is the last thing

that would appeal to me.

Oh.

Where's our waiter?

Where is that waiter?

Is, uh, that part of
your helplessness act?

Because if it is, it's
not going over with me.

Oh.

Would you like some more wine?

Thank you.

You know, some women think
you should mother a man.

But I think a man
should act like a man.

You have a-- you've got
something on the side.

Linda, I want to
thank you for the best

day I've had in a long time.

Thank you for one of the
best days I've ever had.

Are you wearing
lipstick, Linda?

Huh?

Oh, yes, I am.

Um, I think it's
called night flame.

It comes with matching
nail Polish, too.

Oh, my father doesn't
like women who wear makeup.

Now hold it, Vicki.

You're putting
words in my mouth.

No I said, it depends on
who is wearing the makeup

and how it's applied.

In this case, both of affection.

Incidentally, I'm taking
Vicki on a personal

merrill stubing guided
tour of mazatl n tomorrow.

How about joining us?

Oh, I'd love to if
Vicki doesn't mind.

Of course she wouldn't
mind, would you, honey?

Of course not.

There.

You see?

It's all set.

We'll have a ball.

Yeah.

[Music playing]

Why didn't you wait for me?

I was only gone 10 minutes.

Well, I figured you'd
be gone much longer,

so I went out and got some sun.

Besides, we were going
much too fast anyway.

Mona, we got a lot
of time to make up for.

So why don't we
just cut out and--

Adam.

Adam, you're not listening.

What?

Well, a woman
likes to be charmed.

She likes to have some
tender words of love

before she's dragged off.

Don't you understand?

Well, sure, of course.

Your eyes are like liquid pools.

Your lips are Ruby red.

Let's go!

Ply me with champagne.

Ok.

[Glasses clink]

Dr. Bricker, I
can't believe this!

My wife and baby in your hands
and you're out carousing.

What kind of a doctor are you?

Boozing!

My wife could be giving
birth at any moment.

I'm glad I found you before
you wound up under the table.

What are you doing?

Excuse me.

No more drinks for this table.

Young lady, if you want to do
your good deed for the day,

you take this man to bed.

Now you're making sense.

Adam, I didn't know you
were supposed to be on duty.

No, I'm not.

This guy is just nervous.

His wife isn't due for months.

But you have responsibilities.

And I don't want
to get in the way.

Mona, your hair is silky.

Your skin's like snow.

Sorry.

Sorry.

But I just wouldn't feel
right taking up your time

when you're needed
somewhere else.

But-- but I'm not.

And even if I were,
it's no big deal.

She's just having a baby.

It's not as though she's dying.

Just having a baby?

No, no.

The biggest moment in
a woman's life and you're

dismissing it.
- No, no.

You want to know something?

I think that man is
right to be worried.

Mona, I didn't mean it that.

Wait, wait, I'll go with you.

Don't bother.

Goodnight, Dr. Bricker.

Mona, sweetheart.

It doesn't seem
right for a judge

to be dancing with the
man she put on probation.

Well, it's not
against the law, is it?

No, it's not against the law.

Why not just
relax, and enjoy it?

Well, it doesn't seem proper.

Well, why don't you
look at it this way.

You're just helping a criminal
to rehabilitate himself.

How's that?

Well, uh, if-- if I'm here
dancing with the presiding

judge, I can't very well be out
there committing acts of crime.

Uh-huh.

Well, let's just make
sure of that, huh?

There are, uh,
two ladies who are

trying to get your attention.

Which two ladies?

Over and over there.

Well, I want you to know I did
absolutely nothing to encourage

either one of them.

I didn't say you
were pursuing them.

I said they were
pursuing you, although I

can't figure out why.

[Music playing]

Arthur, please come to bed.

If you do on your
pacing now, you're

going to be too tired to pace
when you're really supposed to.

Betty, I've make a decision.

I don't want to go
through with it.

Call it off.

Let's-- let's not have the baby.

Oh, fine.

Phone the stork, and him
tell him we changed our mind.

You don't know what
it is to have a baby.

[Sighs]

That's it.

That's it.

Arthur-- Arthur, I haven't had
a decent night's sleep in ages.

Now if you don't
control yourself,

I'm going to have to leave you.

Leave me?

Yes.

First, I'm going
to change cabins.

And then when we get home, i'm
going to stay with my sister

until the baby is born.

Oh, you wouldn't.

Oh, Arthur, I am very
serious about this.

Now you either promise
to control yourself

or I'm going to do it!

Honey, honey, hey.

Don't you know, i'm--

I'm acting like this,
because I love you.

And I care about
you and the baby.

Oh, I love you, too.

But if you really care
about me, you'll relax,

and let me enjoy this trip.

Believe me, the baby will
be here in its own due time.

Babies can't tell time.

Arthur, promise
me, or I'll do it.

(Muffled) I promise.

I promise.

And you'll live up to it?

Even if it kills me.

[Music playing]

What a wonderful evening.

Well, I had fun, too.

Well, I'll say goodnight now.

Uh, I'll see you in the morning.

Would you like to
come in for a nightcap?

Well, it's really
getting kind of late.

I'd better be going.

It's not even midnight yet.

I know.

But we've had a
long day, you know?

We-- we really should be in bed.

One drink.

What harm can it do?

[Music playing]

No.

No, I was married
but not anymore.

My husband decided that 22 was a
much more exciting age than 38.

Oh, if you don't mind
my saying so, I think

you were married to a fool.

I don't mind you
saying so at all.

[Scoffs]

As far as I'm concerned, you're
very exciting at any age.

Thank you.

I needed that.

And if there's anything I
can do for you, captain--

there is.

Stop calling me captain.

My name is merrill.

I expect to be hearing it a lot.

The feeling, merrill,
is very mutual.

[Music playing]

Sorry, honey.

Excuse me.

I'll be right back, dear.

[Music playing]

Uh, doc, can I talk to
you just for a minute?

Just stop bouncing and settle.

Look, I know I've been a
pain, but I need your help.

See, I told my wife
that I would control

myself, that I would,
uh, stop bothering her

and everybody else.

Really?

How can I help?

Well, doc, I was wondering
if you could give me

a pill or something
that could take my mind

off the baby and everything.

Arthur, you don't need a pill.

You just need something
to occupy your time.

Look, whenever you feel
troubled, just try jogging.

Now put your energy into that.

It's great therapy.

Jogging, huh?

Jogging.

Yeah, jogging.

You know, I
think I'll do that.

- Ok.
- Thanks, doc.

My pleasure.

Pleasure-- hi, would you
try Mona forsithe please?

What a way to live!

The sea, the sun--

how do you manage to work?

Or do you?

Eh, even fairy land
doesn't run by itself.

Let me show you where our
little elves do their thing.

He must really like you.

Even I'm not allowed
up here very often.

Captain: This is where playtime
ends and the real world begins.

In my mind, I always
picture that part of there

as the sexy, glamorous body.

And this part up
here is the brain.

You know, I never
thought about it that way.

But it's true.

I have a feeling you know
something about ships.

No.

Maybe enough to recognize,
uh, that gizmo over there

is a compass.

And that's a radar screen
and a fathometer is--

you're not only
beautiful, you're smart.

[Chuckling]

Maybe we should keep her
here with us for a while.

I'll let you in on a secret.

It wouldn't take long to
get used to liking this.

[Music playing]

Here you are, [inaudible].

Oh, thank you.

Eh, eh, eh, eh.

- Oh, oh, oh.
- More comfortable now?

Yes, I am.

Thank you.

Are you sure you wouldn't like
to go on a sightseeing trip?

No, I don't think I want to.

I've seen mazatl n before.

Oh.

Many times-- many, many times.

Oh.

I spent most of
my honeymoons there.

Oh.

Well, happy memories, huh?

Right, right.

Well, that's all past.

Right.

Uh, it's getting a
will warm, isn't it?

Yeah, it sure is.

Where are you going?

I have to go back to my room.

Oh, well I'll go with you.

I have to go back to my cabin.

I'll go with you, ok?

Well, I'm just going to
change into my bathing suit.

Oh, well, hurry
right back, will you?

Oh, I'll be back
on a dead run.

Ok.

Hey, Julie, I got
something to tell me you.

You won't believe it.

I don't believe it.

Mr. Harper and I are engaged.

Well, don't you understand?

We're engaged to be married.

Congratulations.

Well, what does that mean?

Well, excuse me for not being
too enthusiastic, your honor.

But I just spoke with a
woman a few minutes ago.

And she told me that she was
engaged to marry Mr. Harper.

I'm going to have
a few words with her.

Oh, well don't
you think you ought

to cool off a little first?

Darling, I am a member of
the American judicial system.

I will give Mr. Harper
every chance to explain

himself before I kill him.

Julie (over loudspeaker):
Ladies and gentlemen,

we will be docking in
mazatl n in 20 minutes.

Tour buses will be
waiting at the dock.

[Music playing]

[Knocking]

Well, I was just
thinking about you.

Oh, I bet you say that
to all your fiance s.

No, only you.

I really love you.

Now, now, Harrison.

Do you really?

Of course I do.

Did you get engaged
to the chambermaid, too?

Well, see, uh, she did
wash out a lot of my socks,

which she really
didn't have to do.

And one thing led to another.

[Slaps]

Well, she wouldn't take a tip.

[Music playing]

[Laughing]

I'm glad you apologized.

So am I. I will never say a
woman is just pregnant again.

[Music playing]

Are you sure that little man
won't interrupt us this time?

Mm-hmm.

There won't be any more
calls about babies.

I'm all yours.

Mona.

Adam.

[Music playing]

[Phone ringing]

Dr. Bricker.

Julie (on phone): Hello,
doc, it's an emergency.

It's the talmadges.

She's giving birth.

Julie (on phone): No, not her.

It's him.

Him?

He was jogging and tripped.

I think he broke his leg.

[Music playing]

My mother was right.

I should have a dentist.

[Music playing]

Yes.

Captain, I will never
doubt your word again.

You really are a
fantastic guide!

From now on, you
get all my business.

Oh, you're a witness, Vicki.

We're going to hold her to that.

[Sighs]

It's time for me to get to work.

Uh, excuse me, ladies.

I'll see you for cocktails.

Oh, sounds great.

[Birds squawking]

Your dad's quite a guy.

That's what all
the ladies say.

[Birds squawking]

They do?

Oh, sure.

I guess it's the uniform.

Women are always chasing him.

He has a new one just
about every cruise.

Is that right?

Oh, well, you
know, the captain.

He's so considerate.

He just can't say
no to any of them.

I hope you're not
the jealous type.

Vicki, how about you and
me leveling with each other?

What do you mean?

Well, I mean we can have a
straight out, air-clearing,

heart-to-heart talk.

Ok.

Woman to woman.

Just between us.

Mm-hmm, you got it.

It stops right here.

[Music playing]

Ok.

Up until about a year ago,
I never even knew my father.

When my mother died, I
came to live with him.

And we love each other.

And I was just really
getting to know him--

or I was until you came along.

Before that, it was
just the two of us.

Vicki, I don't--

you're so pretty,
and you're so smart.

He just doesn't have
time for me anymore.

That's not true.

It is true!

I love him, and I don't
want to share him.

But if you're around--

Vicki?

[Sighs]

Vicki.

[Music playing]

Yeah, you were right, doc.

You said the jogging would
take my mind off the baby.

And it certainly did.

You didn't break it.

You were lucky.

The x-rays show it's
just a nasty sprain.

So give it plenty of rest.

Oh, but this is
our last night.

I was hoping to do
a little dancing.

It's probably the last chance
I'll get to boogie for awhile.

Oh, no, no, please.

I recommend, uh, plenty
of rest for you, too.

A nice, quiet evening
is what you both need.

Oh, you think
that's best, huh?

Uh, yeah-- for all of us.

Well, then I guess we'll
just get a good night's sleep.

Oh, wait.

We both can't go to sleep.

What happens if the baby comes?

We won't know.

I'll know.

Will you wake me?

I promise.

Well, goodnight.

I'll see that he gets to bed.

Yes.

I think I'll get to bed, too.

[Music playing]

To be taken in by that
pipsqueak blue beard.

He's not handsome.

He has no charm-- nothing.

Well, at least
now you're cured.

There was something
so appealing.

Maybe you're not cured.

No, I'm cured.

Ok.

Well, now is your chance
to find out for sure.

Good luck.

I've been looking
for you all over.

I'm sorry I hurt you.

I get engaged to two
ladies, because I don't

want to hurt their
feelings, and I want

to make them feel desirable.

And then I hurt the one
that I least wanted to hurt.

Look, if you won't
talk to me as a woman,

will you talk to me as a judge?

What do you want
to talk about.

As a judge [sighs] I am only
concerned with your marrying

more than the limit--

the legal limit.

As a woman, as far
as I'm concerned,

you can become engaged to
every woman in Pittsburgh.

Well, as a judge who
put me on probation,

I think you should help me
decide between the two women

that I am now engaged to.

Two?

Well, that includes
the chambermaid.

Could you help me?

Not on your life.

Look, if you don't help me
decide which one to marry,

I think you are encouraging
me to violate my probation.

Are you sure
there are only two?

Well, I say two.

But actually, there's three.

Three?

No, I was kidding.

[Chuckling]

But it is funny how
two seems so little

after, just a few
seconds ago, you thought

there were three, right?

Will you help me?

Well, you are
my responsibility.

Thank you.

[Music playing]

[Knocking]

Hi, here's your date for the--

I, uh-- I didn't want you
to go to any trouble for me.

But, uh, isn't that a
little casual for a dance?

I'm-- I'm not going
to the dance, merrill.

Huh?

Would you like to tell me why?

Well, there's really
nothing to tell.

I just changed my mind.

That's all.
[Scoffs]

It's supposed to be a woman's
prerogative, it isn't?

Uh, it's a little
awkward standing

on here in the passageway.

May I come in for a minute?

No, I don't think that
would be a good idea.

Afraid I'll change your mind?

[Scoffs]

Please don't try.

[Music playing]

I don't understand.

I'm sorry.

I-- i--

I realized that i--

I'm just not cut out
to be a sailor's girl.

And I think we ought to end
it before somebody gets hurt.

I'm sorry, merrill.

Goodnight.

[Music playing]

Adam.

I can't.

[Scoffs]

What's wrong?

Well, why hasn't he called?

Well, you said he was asleep.

He's setting me up.

I feel it.

[Music playing]

If I'd known you were
going to behave like this,

I'd have gone to the dance.

I can't help it.

I know him.

He's out there.

I can see him just waiting
for the right moment.

Do you hear anything?

[Music playing]

Here you go.

[Music playing]

Come in.

Dad?

Hi, honey.

Aren't you coming
to the dance?

Uh, maybe later.

I'm not feeling up
to it right now.

Please.

Just one dance?

Not tonight, sweetheart.

I've got a lot of
thinking to do.

You run along.

Have fun.

[Music playing]

[Sighs]

Well, now you know as
much as I do about the girls

I'm engaged to.

Now which one do you think
would be the best wife for me?

Are you certain you want me
to help pick out a lady for you?

I sure am.

Are you sure you want
to get married at all?

Oh, I have to get married to
some nice woman who will settle

me down and keep me from
getting married all them

others out there.

If you're serious,
I'll be serious.

I think the chambermaid is out.

That's an awfully high price
to pay for clean socks.

How about the lady that
owns a home in Florida?

Well, I don't think
Florida is any good.

When you have very fair skin
and, uh, you freckle and burn--

no.

Yeah.

I don't want to marry some woman
who's going to make me freckle.

Hey, do you know why I didn't
recognize you the first day

I saw you on the ship?

Why?

Because the last time I
saw you, it was in court.

And were way up there
on that bench above me,

you know, looking down at me.

Hey, would you promise to
marry me if I promised you

that, right this minute,
I'd go down to my cabin

and lock myself in until
the ship gets back to shore?

You wouldn't have to do that.

I'll lock you in
from the inside.

[Music playing]

Well, it's after midnight.

Yeah, you're right, honey.

He must be asleep.

Yeah, he's asleep.

Ok, I'm all yours.

Oh, Mona.

Mona?

[Whimpers]

Mona?

Mona?

Mona?

[Music playing]

Hi, honey.

What are you doing up so late?

I couldn't sleep.

It's all my fault, daddy.

All right, 30
days in the brig.

I'm serious.

I'm sorry.

What's it all about?

I'm the one who spoiled
it between you and Linda.

I think you better
talk about it.

I told her go away,
to leave you alone.

Why, Vicki?

(Crying) Because I was afraid.

Afraid?

Of what?

I was so afraid of losing you.

Honey, you're not
going to lose me.

Honest?

Of course.

How could you ever
think like that?

Well, I haven't been your
daughter for very long.

[Crying]

And I thought that, maybe
if you love Linda more

than you love me, that
maybe you wouldn't

want me around anymore.

And maybe--

Vicki, you're my
daughter, and I love you.

You're part of me.

I'll always love you
no matter what happens.

But if you love Linda, then

sweetheart, love isn't
something you run out of.

You have an endless supply.

And the wonderful thing is,
no matter how much we give,

it never diminishes.

My love for you will just
continue to grow and grow.

Vicki, no one will
ever come between us.

Thank you, daddy.

[Sniffling]

[Music playing]

Julie.

Yes?

Julie, I know I've
said this before,

but this time it's decided.

Mr. Harper and I are
going to be married.

Congratulations!

Oh, but what about the other--

oh, but everything is perfect.

Yes.

I am Mr. Harper's
one and only fianc e.

Well, that's great!

Well, not quite, dear.

You swore.

I swore-- I swore
that I was not

engaged to anybody on the ship.

But when we get to
my apartment, you're

going to find two ladies,
one in 1011 and one

in 706 that you're going to
have to have a little talk with.

[Music playing]

I'm really sorry
about last night.

Well, I understand.

Uh, these things happen.

Well, look, uh, you really
don't have to see me home.

It's quite all right.

But I insist.

It will be my pleasure.

And best of all, we
won't have to worry

about Betty and Arthur.

You were right.

I worried for no reason at all.

Oh, I told you.

The only thing I'm sorry
about I didn't get to boogie.

[Screaming]

The baby!

I think it's starting.

Arthur: Is there a doctor here?

Get the doc.

Doc!

Doc, it's Mrs. Talmadge.

This time it's the real thing.

Mona.

Bye.

Excuse me.

Merrill?

I found her, dad.

And we had a long talk.

Is everything straight?

Everything is straight.

[Sighs]

It's a pity this didn't
happen last night.

You still owe me that dance.

Then I'll just have
to come back, won't I?

[Music playing]

Um, I think Julie's
looking for me.
