angeles

i'm stumped i don't know how to promote

this

i don't know how to ask a girl to marry

me how to propose

full-page ad in the times

or you could do it the hard way what's

that straighten your necktie and say

will you marry me

that's what i like about you tommy

you're basic the only basic things about

me are my feet

and they hurt would you marry me

that's the nicest proposal i ever didn't

get

you may try it on me again just for size

jane you

you know better than anybody else

what do you think nancy will say enough

i hope to make you happy

what about the ring sure it's right

it isn't too uh uh

would you be happy with it i mean if it

were yours

mind if i take a look

hi what puny things we women pawn our

souls for

of course i'd pawn mine for a lot punier

than that

now you run along and

jane and i can have a good cry on mr

dortmund's time cry about what we'll

think of something

dinner is for schedule jane but won't

you and nancy want you'll help me

celebrate if it's just you'll help me

plan a new attack of snow and if it

rains

cold

jane how big an ignoramus can you be

what do you mean when it comes to a moor

i've been a mooring a lot longer than

you had

you do all right my astigmatic eye i do

look i speak with a wisdom carved out of

my own lonely years

you're in love with that man he's half

in love with you although he doesn't

know it

now do battle for him he's in love with

my sister

sister nancy the perfect mate she's

young

youth should be a blessing not an

apology and she's bloody son but

she's real she'll be an all right wife

she will like hoot and holler now i know

you love her

you brought her up and gave up a lot to

do it you've got her a job here in the

store with which she condescends to

occupy part of her time

but to sister nancy marriage is romance

spelled with a capital dollar sign

what's bill's salary i don't know less

than he deserves i'm sure

why fifteen thousand a year plus a

christmas bonus

sister nancy knows she told me with

butter in her mouth

nancy is not one of your favorite people

this we know let's not talk about it

anymore

and what's with nancy and walter evie at

that monster with the millions

tommy don't you have work to do yes but

you know i never finished yesterday's

work until tomorrow

you're right for bill you're what he

needs you're the kind that only loves

once and this is it

you're letting him go and that's

criminal

how can i be convincing when my feet

hurt

i've swallowed my pride and gotten

larger size shoes

arch supports nothing helps how can i go

to a psychoanalyst and tell him my feet

hurt

jane bill loves her

and i know she won't say yes unless she

loves him

oh won't she

get me out of this rag some rag 550

did he phone not a tinkle sure

but positive

good

hello let me speak to mr evie please

tell him it's linda ross

hello you yes it's me all right

i i called you three times today and

said i was nancy langley and got a fast

brush

password

it just like that hey walter

nancy gets the heave-ho she's out

linda's in eh

you are rotten you're just as rotten and

repulsive as everyone says you are

but i i happen to like you

to date with all my thanks for so very

very much

i'll miss you

phil don't think you're getting all the

best of it

living with nancy has its drawbacks she

always leaves herself on her shower

floor

she opens all the mail whether it's hers

or not and until she's had her coffee in

the morning

oh i'll be glad to get rid of her oh

fine talk

when you take her off my hands well i

thought we'd have the wedding next month

after coral lodge

it'll be open then it's lovely there

just with him

and tommy and charlie of course and

doctors

you'll adore him when you meet him he

brought nancy and me into the world and

i should mother out of it

nancy he'd be so hurt if you didn't ask

him

all right now wait and wait a minute

just those few and that's all

maybe this sounds a little selfish but i

want this wedding to belong to us

i don't want to share it all right well

anything you say

hey james stop puttering around and come

on in here i'm tired talking to myself

i've been worn out dressing and

undressing myself in my mind i've tried

on about a dozen different wedding

gardens already

but you know the one i keep coming back

to i have the slightest idea oh yes

the one i wore in the fashion show down

at the spring

[Music]

i knew it quite a wedding god you look

like the purest little devil in it

[Music]

why do all the right things have to cost

so much why why why why

why you don't suppose would lend it to

me for a fast 24 hours

no they wouldn't

[Music]

[Applause]

but we'll manage it anyway oh shane

you couldn't why did it cost you that we

do much for no

family heirloom family heirloom it's

brand new it was fitted on me

for starting it off in 200 years it'll

be an heirloom

oh again i shouldn't but i will

and no more modeling now i'll sit there

and they can show me and jane

i want the bridesmaids in that very pale

turquoise bridesmaids

[Music]

what happened to that simple wedding you

and bill were planning

that was bill he was being very much the

mail in the house tonight

you seem pretty set on it i'll unsaid it

in easy stages

it'll be painless men don't know what

they want anyway you're not marrying men

you're marrying bill genie's no

differently just like all the others he

sees a beautiful girl he puts a leash

around his own neck

and hands the end of it to me so i can

lead him to the altar

and then what happens i'm darling

really you know i'm

glad i'm a gal who's beautiful

you can build a career on being

beautiful but not a marriage

that's forgetting about yourself don't

be hokey-pokey

it's more than just forgetting about

yourself it's

it's putting yourself out concerning

yourself with him

and what he wants taking care of him

and helping him and doing it in such a

way that he doesn't feel he has to say

thank you all the time jane you've been

reading too many marriage manuals

anyway it's my wedding and with a little

luck it may be the only one i'll ever

have so

let me manage it my own way man you do

love him don't you

why wouldn't i they

they don't come any better than bill

they'll really make him happy

i thought he was supposed to make me

happy

[Music]

william wilt i have this woman to thy

wedded wife to live together after god's

ordinance in the holy estate of

matrimony

little mystery is a very meager man yeah

phone she says he's in conference

[Music]

[Music]

i knew you'd get a laugh of course i

know it's ridiculous and believe me the

girls do too but

well you know how they love to gossip oh

nothing too malicious you understand but

well when two people work together

nights as often as your husband and your

sister

what this that's one sale i don't mind

i do look lovely don't i forgive him

he's too scared of the old man i don't

remember when this

what oh forgive me darling i'm sorry

yes yes you do look superb just like a

man don't ask a kiss

you're becoming quite the little

executive

yes mr jordan's waiting all right i'll

be right there

i'm often sorry angel i can't have

dinner with you tonight i have to rush

out to a business conference with the

old man

you say that as though we're a welcome

change what seems to me that any other

i'm not any other wife

no you certainly aren't and i don't like

being alone so much bill

oh yes i'm sorry tell you what you and

jane have dinner at the regency and i'll

join you as soon as i can break away

nice sisters haven't been together for a

long time eat stick up the fiddle music

and count the minutes till you get there

something like that well see you both

i don't wait for anyone funny about the

old man

bill and the others love him yet they're

scared to death of him

hello let me speak to bunny howard

don't be a fool

i'm sorry jane

watch that temper

sometimes i hate him and you and myself

most of all

and i don't like being married

it used to be laughs and fun with bunny

in the pack

the more i'm married the more i'm afraid

to be alone with any of them

today my marriage license is like a

green light

that they think that the last word in

civilization and they're only its last

gasp

and then there's nothing for me to do at

home jane

i don't know what's the matter with me

but i i get picky and bicker and make

him miserable

and there's no one to talk to about it

not even you

you've kept away from me and i don't

even know what i've done to you

[Music]

you're my baby okay

who's all mixed up and confused

me don't blame yourself too much

it's not just your fault

it's not no

girls spend all the time getting ready

to get married

and then when they do i wonder why

i know bill's here 10 12 14 hours a day

but he has to be to get ahead and become

a success

and of course that leaves you with lots

of long empty time

yes it's up to you to fill that time

and fill it in such a way that'll bring

you and build closer than you've ever

been before

i know children

i've thought of that and

i don't know jane i'm not sure

i want something and i don't know what i

want

i don't think you can bring children up

to be sure of themselves

unless you're sure of yourself

you have been thinking well i've had

enough time for it

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

hi sit down sit down yourself no i've

got to run

tommy perky another he are waiting

breathlessly oh come on stick around

good night jay bill we picked you apart

boom by bone

left of you really

nice

[Music]

time

question

why they want their babies so many of

them answer the way nancy did

to have something for our very own you

see it hits you just exactly the same

way that it always hits me

not a word about the husband or making

him happy or even making the child happy

oh no that child's coming into this

world with a job to perform

to make nancy happy

i don't know jane i really don't know

marriage used to be something holy i

suppose it was

it was the ceremony it meant dying and

being born again at the same moment it

meant giving up all thought for yourself

and assuming

every responsibility for making the

other person happy

yes that's the pledge today

today they think that happiness is

something coming to them

so we're a bond they are supposed to pay

dividends every minute of the day

they refuse to learn the oldest rule

there is you get what you give

and i'm not going to try to make a

polite joke to laugh it off with

that's what i feel and it's the truth

[Music]

and who's angry now i am

hurts when it hits home doesn't it

you think i'm being too hard on you

nancy

i'm trying to think of an excuse for her

don't do it tayden there isn't any

let's forget about it

you said you wanted her to see you every

week

make sure that she does isn't once a

month the usual

then why does she

[Music]

is there any danger she wants that baby

very much and i owe it to you

yes i know i'll say that she gets it

thank you dr bill goodbye

couple of weeks

promises like at least keep my promise

i saw the toy department

[Music]

uh could you get deborah in here

couldn't i be with her for just a little

while well i think i'm sorry darling but

they're very strict rules and we mustn't

try to break them

[Music]

i bought a book it's all about how to

raise babies from the father's viewpoint

i'll read you some of it yeah uh when

the child reaches that age

when the what's the matter dear

rest

[Applause]

[Music]

prentice i could have arranged to have

your husband see the baby

you knew it yes i knew that i want to

see her now

yes mr prentice

hello

[Music]

[Music]

takes more to launch a kid than it does

the larger battleship kids are more fun

the crib belongs there

oh they looked lovely

yeah put that over there yes ma'am i

want everything to be perfect

mrs princess gets home let's see

blankets pillow

diapers in here tommy

times

of luck got a girl

congratulations well thank you fellas

madam here's my card

keep it just in case you see i represent

the sunset diaper service just in case

and just in case oh what a lovely

compliment

now tell me all the grisham details it

all happened in the gas station while

the man was putting in 10 gallons of

ethel

you know how i've always almost worked

perky up to the point and then he'd go

into one of those blank silences of his

well this time it was just too much for

my feeble flesh to bear so i put it

right up to him

perky i said whence come these

frustrating silences

and then he told me guess what what his

feet hurt just like mine

and he was too shy to tell me well i can

keep my job and no regrets

we'll live the plain sane life mrs

turkey that mrs means my real start

hello mrs perky

but i'm sure miss tommy she's my anchor

to windward

she's my good companion my only

companion i'm afraid i'll be lost

without it

excuse me can i fix some of these things

you might as well learn now

hello oh hello nancy

no no bill's not here oh everything's

fine

i'm preparing for your homecoming

what dear well nancy do you you couldn't

fix the nursery

well i was only trying to help

yes but well i know you did dear but

it's no reason to carry on like this

it's just a little thing

i'm sorry

hello hi you haven't bought more toys

she's my first daughter i got to do

something for well how's everything

coming

okay fine yeah yeah looks great looks

great how's the baby

oh fine nancy won't let me see her

excuse me what do you mean she won't let

you see the baby

tommy huh

tommy i have to go out will you be here

for a while yeah

i'll call you then okay

but there's a reason for these moods

jane for her bitterness and

possessiveness

what is it doctor what's wrong with

nancy jane as

close as you are to nancy and as close

as a hand to you i'm afraid i can't tell

you

i'd be betraying a professional

confidence oh

but i will tell you this about yourself

and you can draw your own conclusions

about nancy

yes dr phil perhaps you've noticed how

i've always encouraged you in your work

yes and never encouraged you to marry

yes

do you know why you've hinted at it

dropped phrases here and there a matter

of tune too

i've tried to let you know as gradually

as possible so that it wouldn't come as

too great a shock

and i'm glad that you've understood and

never married

i've been in love enough for it but

somehow it didn't seem fair to marry a

man

and not be able to give him children

you could but it would be dangerous

sometimes it seems hereditary

your mother spending 30 hours in labor

with you and

dying a month after giving birth to

nancy

you're so much like your mother my dear

that you'd have the same problem

with nancy it wasn't quite so acute not

quite so accurate

more than that you'll have to ask nancy

yourself

thank you dr phil

goodbye i know how much you'd like to

have a child

and i also know what a fine mother you'd

be

you know it and i know it

but i'll probably never have a child to

know it

ah

sorry visiting hours are over

professional confidence he's a fine one

to talk killing mother and almost

killing me

auntie stop it you know better than that

you make it sound as though he did it

deliberately

i'm sorry gee there's no one better

no one could have done more i know that

it's just that these last few months

knowing what happened to mother and how

easily it could have happened to me

jane i've been so scared did bill know

that

[Music]

you are wonderful what

your first thought bill not one thought

for the little sister how she feels but

does bill

know nancy please how i wish i would

like you

clever and cool and sure of yourself

you're smart you are you come first in

your life

i've only wanted to help you you like

designing deborah's nursery didn't you

and picking out of things for

it was fun giving your maternal

instincts a little exercise wasn't it

well deborah is mine if you want

children you can have some of your own

that's right jane run away you always

run away when you have to face things

don't you

nancy do you're upset tomorrow when you

come home with deborah it won't be

necessary for you to be there

it's happy sam who happy sam

you never heard of him huh oh i guess i

am he bought this place for me

yeah i had just lost seven races in a

row and was down to the last six bucks i

had in the world so i threw away the

form sheet and took a look at the tote

board

happy sam was seventy to one that was it

i bought three two dollar win tickets on

it he broke last

and he was last most of the way and at

the turn for home

he started to run oh no how he ran

just kept passing one horse after

another end of the stretch he was fourth

third second then he's up to the leader

at the 16th pole

head and head neck and neck close the

nose

and let the wire a photo finish yeah

anyone

no he lost

and that did it that did it i never bet

on another horse i got a job and with

the money i saved not betty i bought

this place

you know it's a funny thing

i get nightmares about that race i can

see the whole thing

start to finish head and head naked

terrible and look

in my nightmare happy sam always wins

the race

i hate to think what would happen to me

if happy sam really wins that race

just shows you when you think

everything's lost the good things are

just coming your way

yeah yeah here she comes dude

hello lovely nice i like the way you say

that

no the same please if you don't mind

the bad news yeah well no no it's not so

bad you see

for the steak i ate i only charged your

cost and then for what you ate i

made a reasonable profit that's all been

once out of lunch someone to talk to

alive once in a while and a reasonable

profit that's right that's right

good night bill just drop in any time

happy sam at me we'll always be glad to

take care of you

ben thanks for taking care of us james

this guy figures right you can't go

wrong playing him straight across the

board

then has a warm hearth the innkeeper a

warm heart

good night good idea

where to now i haven't given my after

dinner speech yet

i'm in your hands

you know what sold me on this house the

window

the city of my feet

live ahead seemed

[Music]

like that street down there straight and

true

the lights bright all the way

somehow i turned off on one of the side

streets

you know i think if you and i started

out together

there wouldn't have been any turning off

i think every evening would have been as

worth living as this evening has been

i don't want to hear you talk like that

and i do want to i don't want to jay

i wouldn't say these things to you if my

marriage weren't dead

i guess it never really lived

jane this evening doesn't have to end

our life together would be straight and

true

with no turning off with each word

sacred because we would know what each

word meant to the other

to love honor to him

[Music]

will i love you past present

and always and it's only because i do

love you

that i can say this it's not for us now

it may never be

but i promise you this promise if the

time is

ever right for the two of us you won't

have to come to me

i'll come to you jane the time is right

now why not

deborah i know the love you have for her

yes bill

you said your marriage never came to

life

well yours fully to play miss nancy no

no don't try to stop me

you said you never knew what the words

of the marriage have all truly meant

and nancy didn't either and right at the

start when marriage wasn't the golden

glory you dreamt it would be

you withdrew a little and so did nancy

and now the two of you are ready to let

deborah fall into the gulf between you

oh bill you must try again really try

thinking only of deborah nancy

forgetting yourself and me and what we

may want

look darling you said you and nancy

turned off on one of those side streets

the lights few and far between but

look sooner or later every side street

turns back into a street

where the lights are bright as far as

you can see

feel pleased you must try

[Music]

maybe you're right jane

[Music]

i'll try i'll do my best to make it work

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Laughter]

hey

there's nothing like bacon and eggs for

breakfast i think we can get a patent on

them they make a small alarm clock

would you like some coffee

oh there's poor tank what do you think

he had it coming to it

what i said he had it coming to him

what's the matter don't i get any coffee

i've already offered you some

i'm sorry

nancy

perry domestic how

low can you get no let me explain i was

just i know you were just

here i can see that it's blatant enough

to shut up don't you wish you could chat

me up

where's debra giver is mine now oh my

don't try asking for any time with it

thank you for that jane

that's what i've been saying to you all

my life anyway isn't it thank you thank

you thank you oh nancy you're jealous

he's insane

don't say that where's deborah

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

so

[Music]

i spent the morning doing just what you

ordered that guy

i thought about how it was when bill

proposed to me

he was so surprised when i accepted he

could hardly talk

now i'd like you to think about

something else to think about

just what happened when your child was

killed about

jane jane's downstairs again she'd like

to see you

any mention of jane and you freeze don't

you see mrs prentice

that's blocking and that's what we must

try to overcome like you just say your

name once

just once it'll be a start i can tell

you why you won't

partly because you blame her for the

death of deborah but principally because

you know that you two are to play

you two are guilty you're guilty of

running away from marriage

guilty of rushing into a divorce at the

wrong time

the roots are deep and twisted

the mother who died when you were born

jane's mothering and raising you

you've loved her and presented her at

the same time

build your marriage

wasn't what you dreamed romance

i'm telling you each day and night how

fair you were and how much he cared for

you

roses each night when he came home

sunday breakfast in bed

white tie and champagne

but it wasn't like that because marriage

is hard never-ending work

so much of its dull routine 100

unimportant things to be done each day

unimportant but all important

why didn't i know these things

before i married

drink

treat it

she did she did try

[Music]

jane

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

is

[Music]

you said you could help me could you

help me dr can you help me

i'll try but i need you

i need your help

[Music]

how is jane not before long i think

you'll be able to see her

[Music]

how is she dr carter she asked for you

jane

first time oh that's fine doctor

when may i see her not yet but soon i

think dr carter please

excuse me don't run away phil i'd like

to talk with you

oh dr phil if i could only see her

this recovery is a slow business my dear

that dr carter feels that ultimately

she'll be able to live a full life

that's what i hope and pray for it's too

bad a marriage to build and wake up

only they could have had another child

could have helped you so much but even

an adoption

but a child of their own their own flesh

and blood would

be so much better

nancy can't have any more children

[Music]

is that it yes my dear that's what i was

trying to tell you

that day in your office when you told me

about myself

yesterday

that's why she was so possessive

my debra meant so much to her

while she crawled in the hospital with

me about nothing

[Music]

carter's handled a case similar to this

where in adoption

goodbye dr

well hello hi ben

has built

thanks friend i thought he'd turn up

here sooner or later

[Music]

soft lights sweet

music like

like the last time we were here
