(Julie) - Enjoy your cruise.

Hello, welcome aboard. May I help you?

- If you please. We're Richard and Marcy Simmons.

- Crane. Marcy crane.

My father has a sort of selective amnesia

when it comes to my marriage, to say nothing of my divorce.

- Come on, Marcy.

- I think he was planning on my staying 16

for the rest of my life.

- Yeah, well, sometimes you sure act that way.

- Well, uh, you're on the promenade deck,

cabins 341 and 342.

Have fun.

- Thanks very much. - Thanks.

- Hello, may I help you?

- Oh, i'm, uh, Dr. Jonathan hunt,

but I'm not staying.

Right off the bat I spot my dream shipmate, she's taken.

- Oh, oh!

Hang on to your ticket.

That's her father she's traveling with.

- Her father? - Uh-huh.

- Oh, bless you, my child.

- (Laughs)

- Uh, vital statistics, please.

- Sure... Marcy crane, on the promenade deck,

cabin 341 or 342, and don't pick the wrong cabin.

- Okay.

- Oh, doctor?

Wouldn't you like to know where you're staying?

- You just told me.

- (Chuckles) Fiesta 286.

I don't think I have to tell you to have a good time.

- Excuse me.

Has a Mr. Martin corell checked in yet?

- Sure, he's right over there.

- Yeah, that's miss Barbara gosford he's with,

one of the society gosfords.

- Oh. He must be pretty influential himself.

- Mm-hmm.

- The company wants us to give him

the super red-carpet treatment.

Excuse me.

- I'll see you later, Martin.

- Bye.

- Mr. Corell.

Welcome aboard. I'm captain stubing.

- How do you do?

- I hope you and miss gosford will dine at my table tonight.

- Oh, we'd be delighted to.

- Good.

- Blinky!

(Laughs)

Oh, it is you, isn't it, blinky?

- Annabelle?

Annabelle folker?

- That's right!

Isn't this great?

We went to the same little old country schoolhouse together.

- Just what have you been up to all these years?

- Oh, well, not too much.

- I'm afraid Annabelle's being modest.

She's a big recording star.

She's headlining the show here on our ship.

- Oh, forgive me.

I guess I just don't follow show business.

- Oh, it don't matter.

Well, hey, I better get my stuff out of here.

- Yes, I'll get settled in too.

- We'll have a nice long talk later, okay?

- Good. - Bye.

- Bye-bye.

- Well, looks like on this cruise

I'm gonna have something to really sing about.

- Hey, gopher. - Hmm?

- What's the matter?

You look kind of, uh... blah.

- Oh.

My car died and I've been looking around at some new ones

but the prices are insane.

I used to dream of paying that much for a house.

Not much chance for the little guy anymore...

Unless of course we marry a rich widow or something.

- I wouldn't want to be married to a widow.

I don't think I'd like the idea of being her second husband.

- Lot better than being her first one.

Dad? Not a Shirley temple.

Oh, Martin, you did say something about a walk on deck?

I apologize.

But you do see the problem?

- Well, blinky don't seem to think I'm a problem.

He did invite me.

- Well, for once, he wasn't thinking.

He was carried away by all the clamor over you

and later on he'll be the butt of jokes.

Look, politics is a cruel business.

Believe me, I'm not speaking for myself but for him.

I'm telling you very honestly.

If you care at all for the man...

You must turn down his invitation.

- Hey, Marcy, you better...

You better start changing for dinner.

- What did you say to Jonathan?

- Nothing, I just gave him my blessing.

- How dare you interfere with my life like that!

I'm a grown woman, I am not a ten-year-old!

- Marcy, don't get upset.

- I want to be upset!

But not for the reason that you think.

This may come as a shock to you,

but I don't want to marry Jonathan

any more than he wants to marry me.

I came on this cruise to have fun,

to enjoy myself, to relax.

And if that means playing games

with Jonathan or someone like Jonathan,

and that's how I feel, that's what I'm gonna do.

- Marcy, I just hate to hear you talk like that.

- I'm 28 years old

and I have been married for five of those years!

- Yeah, and your choice of a husband was so good

that you're now in the middle of a divorce.

- (Sighs)

That's true.

But that doesn't give you the right

to choose the next one.

If there is a next one.

- Honey...

Look, don't you see?

I just wanna prevent you from making any more mistakes.

- And that's what you gotta stop doing.

I'm a big girl now.

I've earned the right to make my own mistakes.

Sure, I picked the wrong husband...

And the next one might not be Mr. Right either,

but it's gotta be my choice... And my mistake.

Daddy, just be my father.

And my friend.
