Dorothy, wait a minute.

Louie, will you ask Mr. Esmond to come back to our dressing room.

He's sitting in his usual place.

Right away, Miss Blake.

What's the rush? He's not gonna run away.

- I know, but I just can't wait. - For what?

Didn't you notice? His pocket was bulging.

That could be a bag of gumdrops.

No, it was square bulge, like a box for a ring.

I think he's got a present for me.

You know, you're the only girl in the world...

...that can stand on a stage with a spotlight in your eye...

...and still see a diamond inside a man's pocket.

Thank you, Louie.

Good evening, Mr. Esmond.

- Won't you, pray, come in. - Thank you, I'd love to.

- Hi, Gus. - Good evening Dorothy.

You were wonderful tonight, darling.

- Simply wonderful! You were magnificent! - Thank you.

You were good too.

Gee, thanks, 'cause that makes me feel all warm inside.

- Mr. Esmond! - Is it the right size?

It can never be too big. Do you think it's too small, Dorothy?

It looks like it ought to have a highball around it.

I mean, does it fit your finger?

Yes, it fits perfect.

Daddy, I'll bet you made me the happiest girl in the world.

I don't know what you do, honey...

...unless you use Novocaine on your lipstick?

Daddy? Daddy? May I tell Dorothy?

If you wish.

Dorothy, Mr. Esmond and I are going to be married.

To each other?

Of course to each other. Who else to?

I don't know about you Gus.

I always sort of figured Lorelei would end up with the Secretary of the Treasury.

Dorothy, guess what.

On Saturday we're sailing on the Isle de Paris.

- "Ile" de Paris. - We're going to be married in Europe.

Why not getting married in America and then go to Europe?

- Well... - Or is that old-fashioned way?

Well, we've made our plans.

Come in.

Mr. Esmond, a long distance call for you.

Oh dear. From Dayton, Ohio.

Thank you very much, I'll be right there.

It must be Father.

I hope nothing's happened. I'll meet you at my table, dear.

Father! Never misses, Gus' old man. Right on cue. Too bad, honey.

Nothing's going wrong this time.

Lorelei,

...the old boy is not about to let you commit matrimony with his son.

I think he'd rather shove him down an elevator shaft.

Dorothy, I'm sailing on Saturday, with or without Mr. Esmond.

And I'm not coming back from Europe until he comes and gets me.

When we're in France...

...where his father can't phone him twice a day...

Well, Gus will never let you go alone.

Sometimes Mr. Esmond finds it very difficult to say no to me.

Well, that's very possible.

Come on, guys, we can't check the roll if you don't stick together.

Peters? Randall? Sanford? Sims?

- Stevens? - Look at that.

Stevens? Willard J. Stevens?

- Why don't you answer...? - I'm busy.

Boy, oh, boy!

Check your passport right over there.

Thank you.

Pardon please...

...is this the way to Europe, France?

To where?

Not Europe, France, honey.

- France is in Europe. - Who said it wasn't?

Well, you wouldn't say...

"is this the way to North America, Mexico"? Would you?

- If that's where I want to go, I would. - The dealer passes.

- This ship goes to Cherbourg, France. - Thank you ever so. See?

Say, what's all the talent in the blue jackets?

It's not a band, is it?

No, no, Miss, that's the Olympic team. They're sailing with you on this ship.

- The Olympic team? - Yes.

For me! Now wasn't that thoughtful of somebody?

- Dibs on the shot-putter. - Dorothy Shaw!

I want you to remember...

...you're supposed to be the chaperon on this trip.

Now, let's get this straight, Gus:

The chaperon job's is to see that nobody else has any fun.

But nobody chaperons the chaperon.

- Dorothy... - That's why I'm so right for this job.

Passports, please.

I thought you were going to be late. Here's your ticket.

They're all over there, at the passport desk.

I want you after the blond.

The brunette's her friend, Dorothy Shaw.

I never mind about her. We don't care what she does.

I care.

Have fun, son.

Come on, please you guys, move along.

- Let's get on board. - Have a nice trip.

Steve, suppose the ship hit an iceberg and sank.

Which one would you save from drowning?

Those girls couldn't drown.

- Right in here, mademoiselle. - Thank you.

My, it's just like a room, isn't it?

Oh, look! Round windows!

Yes, dear.

- Just put that there, Frisbee. - Yes, Sir.

And, Frisbee, wait for me on the pier.

- Yes, Sir. - Lorelei.

- Where's Dorothy? - I don't know.

Someone whistled at her and she disappeared.

I hope she's not gonna be a bad influence on you?

Oh no, lover.

Dorothy's not bad, honest.

She's just dumb.

Always falling in love with some man...

...just because he's good-looking.

Oh dear, that's not...

I keep telling her...

...it's just as easy to fall in love with a rich man...

...as a poor man. But she says, yes, but...

If they're tall, dark and handsome...

...she never gets around to vital statistics, until it's too late.

That's why I'm her best friend, I guess.

She really needs somebody like I to educate her.

Yes, dear, but very few girls have your wonderful willingness to learn.

I suppose that's true.

I want you to put this in a safe place.

- What is it? - A letter of credit.

Oh, that's real sweet!

You started writing me even before I went away.

No, no, dear, you see a letter of credit is like money.

Money?

Yes, just take it to a bank in Paris when you get there.

Oh, that's wonderful!

Be sure and write me every day. I'll be so lonesome.

I bought you a little going-away present, dear.

Daddy! Daddy!

Sometimes I think there's only one of you in the whole wide world.

Oh, sorry, wrong room.

- Who is that? - A stranger. He had the wrong room.

Yeah, but he's good-looking. Hope he isn't just seeing someone off.

- Dorothy... - Well, quite a little place we have here.

Oh, look, fellas, come on in. Folks, meet the relay team.

- How do you do? Nice to know you? - How do you do?

We're gonna have ourselves a little bon voyage party.

Skeeter, put the phonograph in there.

Come on in, everybody. Use that door, come on in here.

Make yourselves at home. I'll get the glasses.

Hallo... Hi... You're welcome... Who's got the champagne? There it is.

Dorothy Shaw, I'm counting on you to keep those athletes to yourself.

What a coincidence! That's my plan too.

Gangway! Pardon me. Who needs a glass?

- Lorelei, I want to talk to you. - Sure.

Dear, I want to tell you...

I want to remind you of something very...

Stop that, please. It's most distracting.

Dear, a lot depends on how you conduct yourself on this trip.

As you know, Dad is dead set against our marriage.

And well...

...even the slightest hint of any scandal...

...even the slightest.

I don't know what I could do about it.

My goodness, lover. You don't have to tell me that.

Oh, I'd give anything in the world if I were sailing with you, baby.

Me too. I don't know what I'll do in Europe without you.

I don't know what I'll do without you, either.

I'm not so sure about that.

You can be a pretty naughty boy sometimes.

Oh, Lee, you don't have to worry about trusting me.

I do, though.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Hi, Miss Shaw. What are you going to be doing? - All right, guys, keep moving.

- "Mr. Amos Jones and valet." - What are you doing?

I'm checking the passenger list. "Mr. Alfred Loman and valet."

"Mr. Eugene Martin and valet."

Why the sudden interest in valets?

When a man has "and valet" after his name...

...he's definitely worthwhile.

I'm simply trying to find a suitable gentleman escort for you.

Well, don't bother. I just provided myself with about 20.

Dorothy, did you ever hear of a rich pole-vaulter?

Maybe not, but who cares? I like a man who can run faster than I can.

I hate to think where you'll wind up.

You're wasting all your time on unrefined persons without any money.

Honey, did it ever occur to you...

...that some people just don't care about money?

Please, don't be silly. We're talking serious.

You don't want to wind up with a loveless marriage, do you?

Me, loveless?

That's right!

Because if a girl's spending all of her time...

...worrying about the money she doesn't have...

...how is she going to have any time for being in love?

I want you to find happiness and stop having fun.

- That baffles me. - You'll thank me some day.

Here's a good one: "Henry Spofford III and valet."

I remember reading.

The Spofford family owns practically a whole state.

A big one too. I think it's Pennsylvania.

I guess I could settle for Pennsylvania.

Hello, there! Mrs.Henry Spofford III.

Mrs. Henry Spofford III and valet...

...not going to have anything I don't have.

I'll see you later.

Don't forget the cocktail party.

- All right. - 5:30.

- The whole team? - Until after the games.

You mean to tell me you eat at 6 and have to be in bed at 9?

That's right. Coach is strict and check up on everybody.

Holy smoke, 9:00! That's just when life begins.

- All right you guys. - All right you guys

One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four.

Honey, you'll hurt yourself.

- Did you say $50? - Mai oui, monsieur.

That's a fairly tidy sum just to get a seat at a table.

That's the law of supply and demand, monsieur.

I get many requests for a seat at Miss Lee and Miss Shaw's table.

And the price goes up and up and up.

That's inevitable. Je regrette, monsieur.

Je regrette it more than vous. However, the name's Malone.

- Better get it down there while I can still afford it. - Merci monsieur Malone.

- Bonjour, mademoiselle. - Are you the headwaiter?

- At your service, mademoiselle. - I'm Miss Lee.

Oh, Miss Lee. Well, now I understand. What can I do for you, Miss Lee?

Put a certain gentleman at my table.

There's nothing I can do for you.

All seating arrangements are completed, final., finished, compris?

That's too bad.

Once I was in Atlantic City and all the gentlemen in the hotel...

...wanted to sit at my table.

Oh well, I can understand that.

Some of them even went to the headwaiter to give him money.

That happens. What can one do? One takes it. Why not?

- That headwaiter had to give it back. - Indeed? Why?

Because I had all my meals in my room.

I mean, I didn't even come to the table at all.

So, naturally, the men wanted their money back.

Oh, mademoiselle, I beg you...

Do you want me to have all my meals in my room?

- That must not be, mademoiselle. - Of course.

If Mr. Henry Spofford III is seated at my table...

- It shall be, mademoiselle. - Thank you ever so.

Oh, mademoiselle.

Hi.

Oh! Hi, Miss Shaw. Well, it's nice to see you.

In case you don't remember, my name is Watson.

- Mr. Watson. - Here we are, all ready for you.

- Thanks, I need it. - What's the matter?

Can you imagine? The entire Olympic team has to be in bed by 9:00.

What can you do about a thing like that?

- Send a letter to your congressman. - Catch me a pigeon, I'll be glad to.

Er, Miss Shaw, may I present Sir Francis Beekman?

- How do you do? - How do you do.

A pigeon, if there ever was one.

Note the blood red ruby eyes.

I see, there is no reason to run a fellow down.

He's jealous, because I have a way with the ladies. - How do you do it?

What makes it different with the ladies it's that diamond mine of yours.

Diamond mine?

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll go on being the host.

- Cheeky fellow. Good sort, though. - Is it true?

What say we sit down and make ourselves comfortable? What?

I understand that you're an entertainer, Miss Shaw.

- I... why, but sure a good one, though. - Thanks.

Say, is that on the level? Do you own a diamond mine?

Well, I am happy to say I do, my dear. Are you interested in diamonds?

No, no, not particularly, but...

Really, you must be a very quite... extraordinary girl.

- Will you do me a favor, sir? - Piggy, just call me Piggy.

- Will you do me a favor, Piggy? - Anything, my dear, name it.

Would you be careful not to spread it around about your diamond mine.

I wouldn't want my girlfriend to hear about that.

Oh, she doesn't care for diamonds either, huh?

Believe me, Piggy. I'm only trying to save everybody trouble.

Do not tell her about the diamonds.

Did you say "diamonds"?

Well, well, well! By George, I must say!

No doubt about it, no sirree. My judge. No doubt about it at all.

- Miss Lee, meet Piggy. - Delighted! Delighted!

You did say "diamonds." I can tell.

Yes, my dear.

You see my firm controls the second largest diamond diggings in South Africa.

But it seems we mustn't say anything about it.

This young lady has a friend, she doesn't want to know about me.

- I wonder why. - Oh, no, you don't.

Pardon me saying so.

But having heard so much about you, and all, I expected you'd be much older.

Me? Oh my, you don't say. By George! Older than what?

The Pyramids.

Of course, I always say if a man isn't a certain age...

...he just isn't interesting.

Oh, honey, lay off!

Bless my soul. Bless my s...

Would you care to dance?

I'd enjoy to dance. Thank you ever so.

- Could you use another drink? - No, thanks.

Can't tell the players without a program.

Well, I certainly want to know who the players are.

For instance, Sir...

...who's the young man who just tried to steal second base?

My name's Malone.

Mine's Shaw, Dorothy. Well, Mr. Malone?

You're the most attractive girl in the room so I came over to tell you.

Do you mind?

No, I might as well warn you, flattery will get you anywhere.

In that case, we haven't any problems.

As a matter of fact...

...I've been wondering why you hadn't shown up before this.

Well, I... I... had some business to attend to.

Then this isn't a vacation?

Not entirely. There's still a telephone.

- In fact, I just had some bad news. - Oh?

My best 2-year-old will never run again.

Bowed a tendon. He's worth $30,000 or $40,000.

Not that I care about the money. This might've been a good one.

Oh no, you're not one of those, are you?

One of what?

The kind who thinks he has to tell a girl how much money he has.

What's the matter with having money?

Yes, I'm afraid you are.

Do me a favor.

Will you Malone go whistle up a rope?

No, wait a minute...

You might as well know I can't stand rich playboys...

- ...who think all they have to is start... - Now wait a minute!

I'm not that bad all the time. Sometimes I'm very nice.

Sometimes I just speak without thinking.

I get the picture. You're half sweet, half acid.

- Please, Miss Shaw, I made a mistake. - Yes, you did.

Honestly, someone gave me some bad information.

Now that I've put my foot in it...

...it seems to me I remember that it wasn't you they were talking about,

...but your girlfriend.

- Oh, Lorelei. - Or am I wrong again?

No, money is rather a hobby of Lorelei's.

Oh, Piggy.

You're kind of worried about her, aren't you.

You're very observing.

Am I forgiven?

Considering the man shortage on this craft...

Good. We'll start all over again. And I promise that I...

We're gonna be interrupted.

We just had a jolly time. What?

Oh, Mr. Malone, Miss Lee and Piggy, ...there I go again.

- Sir Francis Beekman... - How do you do? How do you do? Hi.

Oh Dorothy, Piggy is a super-best dancer.

So light on his feet, you'll never believe it.

I was sure he would be.

No, no, say, you're trying to flatter me, that...

- What's the matter? - Lady Beekman, my wife.

I thought it was his diamond mine.

There you are my dear.

Won't you come and join us?

- I just have. - Quite so, my dear.

- Oh, may I present Miss Lee? - How do you do?

- Miss Shaw... - Hi.

- Mr... - Malone. How do you do?

- How do you do. - A pleasure, I'm ever so sure.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Come sit down my dear, we're having a jolly time.

Lady Beekman...

...that's the most beautiful jewelry I've ever seen in my whole life.

Oh, hmmm, I'm quite proud of the earrings.

Heirlooms, you know. Been in the family for ages.

You'd never know it. They look just like new.

Oh, quite...

You might be interested in my tiara. I always carry it with me.

Afraid to leave it in the state room.

And you're not afraid to show it to Lorelei?

Yes, stop. Lady Beekman won't know you're teasing.

Look! Did you ever? Anywhere, anything like it?

All blue stones. Cozy little job, what?

- May I just hold it for a minute? - Of course.

How do you put it around you neck

You don't, lovie, it goes on your head.

You must think I was born yesterday.

Oh, sometimes, there's no other possible explanation.

No, no, my dear. She's quite right. Like so. It's a tiara.

You do wear it on your head!

I just love finding new places to wear diamonds.

There's the music. You'll excuse me, my dear.

Miss Lee has promised me this next dance.

We've got to dress for dinner now.

- But it's only... - We must go, Francis.

Oh, well, all right. Au revoir.

A very pleasant au revoir to you.

My tiara. Thank you.

Poor fella.

Two-to-one she keeps him locked in her closet, for the rest of the trip.

- Listen, I'd be grateful if she did. - I think he's cute.

Except the point, you know very well what I mean. You and that..

What are you doing?

Just testing.

Wonder what I'll wear it with when I...

How does it look?

Exactly like trouble.

I told the coalition leader.

That we need a man who can do something about...

Finish your story, dear.

Your table, madame.

Good evening!

Miss Lee and Miss Shaw. This is Mr. Crossley.

Mr. Franklin. Mr...

- Mason. How do you do? - Mr. Brooks. How do you do?

How do you do?

Isn't Mr. Henry Spofford III here?

Not yet, but I believe this is his chair.

You're here, Miss Lee.

Miss Shaw, you're over here.

Thank you.

Pardon me, my girlfriend's to shy to ask.

- But could she please have your seat? - But of course.

She gets sick if she rides backwards.

- I'm sorry. - Not at all.

How's it happened that we are at the same table?

This is the seat they assigned me, Lady.

How much said it cost you?

I can't tell you. You'd get too conceited.

You're Mr. Franklin, aren't you? Are you enjoying your trip?

- How many times have you crossed? - This is my...

- Don't you feel a loner on a big ocean? - Well I...

I just adore conversation, don't you?

- I certainly... - Pardon, monsieur.

- Mademoiselle, Mr. Spofford is here. - Oh.

Dorothy.

Pardon me for whispering.

Now, please, try to make a good impression.

Okay.

Right this way, Sir. Mr. Henry Spofford.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello. Hello.

Well, Mr. Spofford, are you traveling by yourself?

No, I've got a valet, a tutor and a trainer.

Well...

...pardon my saying so and all...

.. but having heard so much about you...

...I expected you to be much older.

I'm old enough to appreciate a good-looking girl, when I see one.

This promises to be quite a trip.

Personally, I don't intend to miss a meal.

How am I doing?

Hey, there's a place over there.

Oh, Ernie, will you get us some cigarettes?

Sure.

I can't get over that passenger list. Calling a young boy "mister."

A girl could waste a whole trip to Europe, if she trusted that passenger list.

Think we'd better give up the whole idea, huh?

Believe if 16 or 17, you could marry him in Tennessee.

Seemed a good idea to bring some drinks.

- Here your cigarettes. - You're a dear good boy.

I've been wondering, what's your line, Mr. Malone?

My line?

Well, my most effective one...

...is to tell a girl that she has hair like a tortured midnight...

...lips like a red couch in an ivory palace...

...and I'm lonely and starved for affection.

Then I generally burst into tears.

- Very seldom works. - You idiot.

No, I mean, what do you do for a living?

Oh, that kind of a line.

Nothing, I'm afraid.

Just clip coupons and live off the fat of the land.

- Coupons. That's like money, isn't it? - Very similar.

I'm so pleased Dorothy's taken an interest in you.

I mean she's never been interested in anyone worthwhile.

No taste, hey?

No, I'm a hobo collector. I might find room for you.

- She's joking, Mr. Malone. - I hope not, I'm kind of counting on it.

Some people don't catch on to Dorothy's jokes.

- I'm gonna try. - That's good.

Dorothy is the best and loyalest friend a girl ever had.

She'll make some man a wonderful wife. You'll find out.

- Well, I've got to be going. - Going? Where?

Don't worry about me. I'm only concerned about you two.

There's a wonderful moon out tonight.

Well, well, well, there you are.

I say, Miss Lee, will you dance with me?

I should be jolly well pleased if you will.

Thank you ever so, I'd love to.

That is, if you hadn't asked me, I was going to ask you.

Really? Well, by Jove! I just say... I say, will you excuse us?

Oh Ernie, do you remember last night?

Very well.

No, I mean when we were talking about the moon.

You said it reminded you of a moon you've seen in Coney Island.

Ah. Could have been the same one. Why?

I remember then I was wondering...

...what a rich young man like you were doing in Coney Island.

Oh, well...

I rather thought you'd be in Bermuda or Palm Beach.

Wonder if I go in and break that up.

They're just dancing... out in public. Can't make much of a case out of that.

You sound like a detective.

C'mon. Let's go find our moon and forget about your girlfriend.

Anyway I'd probably get in trouble if I pushed Piggy overboard.

Not with me.

Anyway, why blame Piggy? It's not all his fault.

No, I...

Just what did you mean by that remark?

Let's say I can't figure out how two girls can be so different...

...and be such good friends.

Now listen, Malone. Let's get this straight.

Nobody talks about Lorelei but me.

She's quite a girl. You just don't know her.

You don't mind if I like you better, do you?

- We settled that quarrel in a hurry. - Now what do we talk about?

Let's talk about you.

For the past hour I've been thinking.

Thinking about doing something.

What have you been thinking, Mr. Malone?

...Basha.

Aren't you clever, Piggy!

You see, that means:

"Come to my Bashaand I'll give you my all coconut shells."

And you see, the natives believe...

...coconut shells ward off the snakes, ever what.

Africa must be fascinating.

Gee, Piggy.

A girl like I almost never gets to meet a really interesting man.

- Sometimes my brain gets real starved. - Poor little thing.

It's a terrible thing to be lonesome, especially in the middle of a crowd.

Do you know what I mean?

You'll never be lonesome again. You leave it to Piggy.

Excuse me Piggy, I've got to see Lorelei alone.

Certainly, certainly, shall I wait in the next room?

If you like. We're expecting Lady Beekman for tea.

- Lady Beekman? Here? - Yes.

Oh, I just remembered, I have another appointment.

I'd better pop off. Well, toodle-loo, chin-chin and all that rot, you know?

That was very mean of you! I would never inter...

Now, you shut up and sit down and listen to me...

...because you're in a jam, honey.

Me? Why?

What were you and Piggy doing in here...

...before he started barking like a seal?

He wasn't barking, that's Swahili.

No, no, before that. Now, think hard.

Was there anything that would look incriminating in a photograph?

Something you wouldn't want Mr. Esmond to see?

- Why, no... My goodness, yes! - What?

Piggy was telling me about South Africa.

It's very dangerous there.

Practically, full of snakes called pythons.

And it seems a python can grab a goat...

...and kill it by just squeezing it to death.

- Get to the point. - That's all.

What's incriminating about that?

Well, Piggy was being the python, and I was a goat.

Oh, Lorelei!

Don't worry!

Piggy won't tell anyone he was being the python!

He won't have to.

Because just about the time Piggy was squeezing the goat...

...Mr. Ernie Malone was taking pictures right through that porthole.

- Whatever for? - The National Geographic magazine.

Oh, wake up, honey. Mr. Malone has foxed us.

He's been shining up to me so he can keep tabs on you.

I'll bet you anything he's a private detective hired by Mr. Esmond.

Oh, Gus is jealous without pictures.

If he sees that one, he will be absolutely unreasonable.

Yes, he will.

I was going to crack Malone's head in, but I thought better of it.

What do you mean, better?

We'll have a better chance of getting those pictures back...

...if he doesn't know we're on to him.

I'll get them.

- How? - He's a man, isn't he?

No, charm won't work. He's too smart for that.

- And he was such a doll last night. - Oh, Dorothy!

Boy, will I tell that stinker off when we get those pictures back!

- The question is, how do we do that? - Well...

The simplest way is to swipe them.

C'mon, we'll get our warpaint on and go to work.

- By the way, where's Lorelei tonight? - You sound interested.

I am, but not in her.

If you are interested, I know where we could find her.

I was just asking a question.

That's all.

Hello.

Mr. Spofford, will you please give me a hand.

I'm sort of stuck.

- Are you a burglar? - Heavens, no!

The steward locked me in. I was waiting for a friend.

Why didn't you ring for him?

I didn't think of it. Isn't that silly?

If you're a burglar and I helped you escape.

Please, help me before somebody comes along.

I'm thinking.

All right. I'll help you.

I'll help you for two reasons.

Never mind the reasons. Just help me.

The first reason is, I'm too young to be sent to jail.

The second reason is, you've got a lot of animal magnetism.

Look, someone's coming.

Oh dear, what'll I do?

Quick, hold this around your neck, tight.

Good evening.

I say, whatever are you doing up there?

I just want to see the view from here, it's better.

Quite so.

Are you feeling well, my dear?

Yes, thank you ever so, except for being so cold...

...I must have caught a chill.

- What say we get a spot of sherry? - Oh, no, I can't.

Sherry's the best thing if a cold is coming on.

Honest, I couldn't.

Well, you do look a little bit flushed, my dear.

Let me feel your pulse.

No, no, please, don't...

No cause for alarm, my dear. It's purely medical.

- There's no fever, at any rate. - I'm all right, I'm fine.

- Such a little flowery hand. - Please, put that back.

So sweet, so tiny, and yet it can hold a human heart.

- Stop that! - Beg your pardon?

Well I... Why...

- Laryngitis, I guess. - There's no doubt about it.

Piggy, I'd better have some of that sherry.

Will you get me some?

I fly on the wings of Mercury.

- Just hurry up. - All right, my dear.

How can you stand that doddering old wolf?

Can't you see his intentions are not honorable.

For heaven's sakes, get me out of here!

Help me over here.

Wait a minute.

What do you mean you're all bruised?

Malone's been here with me the whole time.

Mr. Spofford pulled me too hard.

Mr. Spofford?

Look, honey, never mind the game. Did you get the pictures?

- No they weren't there. - Are you sure?

Absolutely, I looked everywhere. And they are in the camera shop either...

...'cause I went in and asked.

- Then he's got them in his pockets. - He must have, darn it!

Of course, he wouldn't bother to hide them...

...as long as he thinks we're buying his act...

Well, there's only one thing to do. Listen...

...order dinner for three in our cabin and get some drinks.

I'll have him here in about 10 minutes.

If we can't empty his pockets between us...

...we're not worthy of the name women.

I'll have everything ready.

He'll be here in a minute.

I sent him for some cigarettes. You have the drinks ready?

Almost ready.

This room's like an oven.

I know. Let's turn some of the heat off.

Leave it alone, dear.

But it's hot, why don't...

Oh, for him. You know, sometimes your brain amazes me.

Thank you. Remember, our drink is just water and bitters, so...

...don't make any remarks.

What are you doing with that one?

This is his. Do you think three sleeping pills are enough?

Three's quite a lot.

That's pretty potent stuff.

If a thing's worth doing, it's worth doing well.

Here we go.

Come in.

- Here are your cigarettes. - Thanks.

- Hi, Miss Lee. - Good evening, Mr. Malone.

- I got cocktails all ready. - Good.

Make yourself at home.

Say, you girls know it's hot in here.

Must be 110.

Yes, it is a little warm, but Lorelei's afraid of catching cold.

Got a touch of laryngitis.

Here your are Mr. Malone, specialty of the house.

- Thank you! - That's quite a cocktail.

It's very mild. Let's drink a toast. Do you know this one?

There was an old fellow named Sidney Who drank till he ruined a kidney

It shriveled and shrank But he drank and he drank

He had fun doing it, didn't he?

- It's appetizing. - I know another one. Bottoms up.

He looks like he's going to explode.

What are you girls made of?

What was that?

Just equal parts of scotch, vodka, brandy and gin.

Here, try this.

- That wasn't water! - No, it was straight vodka.

Do you want some more?

No.

What's the matter? Don't you feel well?

I'm burning up.

I know what. Let's take off your coat.

Yes, you'll feel a lot better. You'll cool off. Here I'll help.

Now, you just sit down there. Excuse me a minute.

- Any luck? - Not so far.

Be sure you check the inside pocket.

- It's not in here. - It's not in his coat.

Darn it.

There's one other place it could be.

- Where? - His pants.

- We'll only have to get those too. - Do I have to get it alone?

No, I think two heads are better than one.

I suppose so.

It's ticklish business anyway. I'll look at it.

C'mon, we'll stick together.

Say, you know, I nearly went to sleep, sitting here.

You suppose you could turn that heat down?

You know what I think he needs, a good glass of water.

- Don't you, honey? - Yes, indeed.

I'd like some water, but it's this heat, I can't...

Nice glass of water, yes...

Look out!

Your pants are soaked!

We can't leave him here in wet pants, can we?

I'll put them up under the hair dryer.

No, no, no, like I'm alright, I'll just go and change.

Don't be silly. We wouldn't take many...

No, oh no, no! Look this is not...

I am not gonna catch a cold! There is not...

What kind of a dinner party is this?

Pardonnez moi!

Francois, you're just in time. Get something to put on him.

Mr. Malone doesn't feel very well.

You know I think you'd better go to you room and lie down.

I feel like lying down for a month.

- Qu'est-ce qu'il y a, monsieur? - Here, put this on.

Francois'll help you.

It's not fair, you know. Two against one...

- Oui, monsieur - ...to take a man's pants...

Je suis d'accord, monsieur...

- I don't think it's here. - It must be.

I've got it! I've got it!

Here. $2.20. Your negatives and positive prints.

And may I say, in the immortal words of my countrymen, "Ooh, la, la!"

- Thank you ever so. - Ah, plaisir, mademoiselle Lorelei.

Hi. Remember me?

Why, yes. You're one of the Olympic athletes, aren't you?

One of them? Sister, I'm the only 4-letter man on the team.

I should think you'd be ashamed to admit it.

- What... - No, don't say another word.

My word! By George! I must say...

This is the most contemptible bit of impudence I've ever encountered.

The idea of photographing innocent people through a porthole!

Why, it's absolute invasion of privacy.

Just imagine, some newspaper getting a hold of it.

Lady Beekman would never believe you were just being a snake.

I think I'd better sit down a moment.

Are you sure, my dear, there's no more of these things about?

Positive, Piggy. Do you feel better?

You little angel, you don't even know that...

...there is a certain type of girl who would...

...take advantage of a thing like this.

Gee, you'd have to be a terrible girl to be mean...

...to a sweet, intelligent, generous man like you, Piggy.

My dear, my dear...

...you must let me do something for you to show my gratitude.

- Oh, thank you ever so! - May I, may I kiss your hand?

I always say, a kiss on the hand might feel very good...

...but a diamond tiara lasts forever.

A diamond tiara?

Yes, Lady Beekman's. I'd just love to have it.

- Good gracious. - What's the matter?

Oh nothing, nothing, but, wouldn't you rather have some furs...

Or a race horse? Or a motor-board?

No, thank you.

Well, it should be very difficult for me to explain to Lady Beekman...

...that I'd given it away her jewels.

You're so clever, Piggy. You could, if you put your mind to it.

- Do you really think so? - Of course I do.

And besides, it's only fair I should have her tiara.

Because after all, she has you.

- My dear, my dear, my very dear! - Let's get it right now.

Anything you say, my dear, anything you say.

- Keep an eye on the door. - Oui, monsieur.

All right, Pierre. Take this thing back to my cabin.

I'm gonna stay here. Here's the microphone and a dividend.

Merci, monsieur.

- And leave the door open, Pierre. - Oui, monsieur.

Lorelei, they're coming... How did you get in here?

Came in through that door.

- I've been waiting... - Still snooping around, huh?

That's right.

But it has nothing to do with you.

I'm being paid to watch that blond bandit...

I'd sure hate to have your job.

Maybe you're right.

Checking up on people is messy work sometimes...

...but only when those people are doing things that...

Doing things like pretending to make love to a girl...

...while you spy on her friend?

That part of it is not true. And I waited here to tell you so.

I wouldn't believe anything you said if you had it tattooed on your forehead.

- Now wait a minute, listen to me... - Go away Sherlock, you're a wrong guy.

I'm not wrong about you and you're gonna listen to me...

You're only making things worse.

All right, don't listen. But whether you listen or not...

...I'm gonna tell you.

Come on in, honey, you can hear better in here.

- Oh, am I intruding or is he leaving. - One hopes.

I'm leaving. But, Miss Lee, before I go, I'm gonna tell you this.

Because once in a while, even a mercenary nitwit like you...

...has a decent impulse.

Don't let your friend here get mixed up in any of your schemes.

Because I'm gonna rub your nose in them...

, ...and I don't want this character to get hurt on the way.

If you've nothing more to say, pray, scat!

That's about all.

Honey, except for telling you I had money, which I haven't...

...everything else I said to you, I meant.

And it wasn't part of my job either.

Think about it.

Why did you just stand there and let him kiss you?

You want to hear something crazy?

I think I'm falling in love with that slob.

Oh, you just feel that way because he's poor.

I hope so. Come on, let's change. We dock in an hour.

Pierre, we want to buy some clothes. You know, hats, dresses.

...des chapeaux...

You know some good places?

Oh, oui, autour du quai là.

That's where we want to go first.

- This has been fun, hasn't it? - Yes.

It's the first time I've been shopping without a man along.

Well Pierre, you certainly were a big help.

Merci, mademoiselle!

I've never spent so much money so fast.

- It was a pleasure. - There. Is that enough?

Oh, thank you, thank you. Merci, mademoiselle.

- We'll be seeing you. - Au revoir, au revoir, bon soir!

Bonjour, mesdames.

Bonjour mesdames. How do you do? I am the manager. May I help you?

Certainly, may you show me a place to take my shoes off.

My feet are killing me.

Dorothy, please, a lady never admits her feet hurt.

"VANDIOR"

Bonjour mademoiselles. Have your reservations?

Yes we do. It's in the name of Mr. Augustus Esmond.

- This is Miss Shaw, I'm Miss Lee. - Hi.

Oh, yes. We have been expecting you. This way.

Well!

Miss Lee, Miss Shaw.

I thought surely in all Paris we could lose you.

Madame, are these the persons you were talking about?

Yes, these are the persons.

Oh, Lady Piggy. I mean Beekman! What a pleasant surprise.

Mmh, I dare say.

You may proceed, Pritchard.

This person is Miss Lee.

Miss Lee...

...I represent the Suffolk and Greater London Insurance Company.

Well, did you ever so! I never buy insurance.

So, it's Mr. Malone. He needs it in the business he's in.

What is all this?

Young woman...

...if you return the tiara...

...I'm willing to forget this squalid incident.

Allow me to clarify, Milady.

A Lady Beekman's tiara, which is insured to my company,

has been reported as stolen.

What's that got to do with us?

We've been informed, it's in your possession.

Is that true?

Absolutely not!

Honey, why don't you let Lorelei talk for herself.

She'll do better than that, she'll sue you for slander!

Honey, tell them, go on.

- Well... - We're waiting.

None of your business.

Well, I'm afraid it's very much our business.

Honey, just tell them you haven't got it. Tell...

Oh, Lorelei, you didn't!

I did not steal Lady Beekman's tiara.

Then perhaps you'll explain how it happens to be in your possession?

Suppose we say that's my affair.

Well, that's one explanation.

Lord Beekman knows it wasn't stolen. Ask him.

We've already done so, Miss Lee.

And...

He denied knowing anything about it...

...and departed for the interior of Africa.

Piggy wouldn't do that!

Miss Lee, are you or are you not going to give back the tiara?

I wouldn't dream of doing it. It's mine and I'm going to keep it.

That remains to be seen. Come, Pritchard.

You'll find that I mean business.

Oh, really? Then why are you wearing that hat?

- Honey, I want to talk to you. - I made up my mind.

Look Lorelei. The simplest way to get out of this whole thing...

...is just to give it back.

I do not care to converse with you, Mr. Malone.

We will not be in to this man, as long as we stay in this hotel.

I regret, madame, you will not stay here at all.

Oh, oh, what now?

The jig's up, Lorelei.

Esmond canceled your reservation and your letter of credit.

- After hearing from you. - That's right.

I don't believe it. Mr. Esmond wouldn't do that.

- Did he? - Exactly.

Mr. Esmond refuses responsibility for your bills.

It's very inconvenient, because we've just spent all of our money.

I'm sorry, madame. That's not our concern.

C'mon, honey, let's get out of here.

Anyway, I hear your plumbing is noisy.

Dorothy, if you need help, I'm at the Elysée Hotel.

You hold your breath till I call.

Lorelei, I've flown the entire Atlantic Ocean...

I won't let myself.

I won't let myself fall in love with a man...

"No matter what you..."? Lorelei, that's being unreasonable.

Well, goodbye, then.

How can I trust you after all Father's found out about you?

We're ready to dress you, mademoiselle.

Be right there.

Lorelei, I...

It's men like you who have made me the way I am.

And if you loved me at all...

...you'd feel sorry for the terrible troubles I've been through...

No, no, don't say another word.

Hi, honey. How'd Gus like your number?

He didn't applaud. He looked kind of grim.

Hand me my hat there would you please.

He is sweet, isn't he? I really do love Gus.

You do, really?

There's no other millionaire in the world with such a gentle disposition.

He never wins an argument, always does anything I ask...

...and he's got the money to do it with.

How can I help loving a man like that?

Oh, I guess so. Let's don't talk about love.

It reminds me of my friend Malone, the human ferret.

Deshabillé?

Quelle catastrophe! Les gendarmes!

The police are here! They asked for you!

They have a warrant for your arrest.

They are coming now.

It will get in all the newspapers. It will hurt my business.

Quelle scandal!

Now will you get rid of that jinxed tiara.

But Piggy gave it me...

if I give it back, it's like admitting I stole it.

Oh, keep still, honey. You're in a strange country.

You can't prove that you didn't steal it.

Do you want to take the chance of a couple of years in the Bastille?

- I guess I've got to give it back. - Where is it?

- In there. - Oh, come on, let's get it.

- Oh, Dorothy. It's just not fair. - No, of course not.

Dorothy, it's gone!

What? Are you sure this is where you left it?

Yes. It's been stolen! It's been stolen!

The cops! Oh, sister, we really are in a jam.

Come on.

Maybe you can get out here if I give you a boost.

Lorelei? It's me, Gus.

- Gus. - I come to say goodbye.

He's your best chance.

Why, if he can't boost me any higher than you can.

Lorelei?

Just a minute Gus. Listen!

Either you hock some of that stuff...

...or get the price of the diamond tiara out of him.

How much do you think a diamond tiara'll cost?

$15,000 at least.

Gee, that'll take an hour and 45 minutes.

All right, you get the money and I'll take care of the gendarmes.

How?

Never mind how. You're not the only one around here with hidden talents.

- Lorelei? - Coming!

You can come in now, Daddy darling.

Lorelei, I've made up my mind. We're through. Through forever.

Oh, but first I want to kiss you goodbye.

Very well.

No, no. Not in front of everybody. Come on in, Daddy darling.

"American vols sont ici."

"Venant de New York maintenant à la porte douze."

This is your flight coming now, monsieur.

Oh, thanks very much.

"Now Ici, monsieur."

Pardonnne, monsieur. Until you finish customs you cannot...

I know, I just wish to speak with this gentleman.

- Bien, monsieur. - Well Malone?

How are you, Mr. Esmond. Have a nice trip?

My son, where is he?

A few minutes ago, he was in the café where the girls are working.

I explicitly told you on my cable to stay with him until I arrived.

- Well, he... - Don't you know he can't be left alone...

...in the same city with that blond man-trap.

Oh, he's perfectly safe for a while.

Right now, the blond man-trap is in the quatrième arrondissment night-court...

...getting ready to explain a few things to the police.

That's much better.

We'll go over there as soon as you get through this customs thing.

I'll be right with you.

I beg your pardon.

Well, Sir Francis Beekman. I heard you'd gone to Africa.

What? What'd you say? Beekman? No, Sir, my name is not Beekman,

my name's Amos Finch.

All right, if that's how you want it.

I say, don't be in such a confounded rush.

Aren't you're the chap on the boat?

- I am. - I thought so.

Er, I was just having a bit of a joke. Of course I'm Beekman.

- You're sure? - Well, rather.

My plane leaves in an hour.. Do you know where to find Miss Lee?

I think so.

Would mind giving her a message for me, but not until after I've gone.

Glad to.

Tell her... tell her that I had no choice in the matter.

What I did, I had to do, and all that sort of rot, you know.

She'll understand if she knew my wife.

And tell her... tell her I know that money means nothing to her.

But I'll make it up to her someday, somehow.

I'll tell her.

Thanks awfully, old boy. Well, toodle-loo.

It'll be a great favor, by George, a great favor.

All right, Malone, take me to see this young lady.

Yes, sir.

"Reprenter sentiments et si honorablement à monsieur le president."

"Le mettez un terme par un châtiment exemplaire."

"Faites entrer I'accusé."

"Faite entrer mademoiselle Lee."

"Mademoiselle Lorelei Lee."

"Mademoiselle Lee."

"Je veux dire la verité, toute la verité, rien que la verité."

You will please swear, Miss Lee.

Oh, judge, I never swear.

You've been asked...

...to swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth.

Will you do that?

Well, yeah. Thank you ever so.

Sit down, mademoiselle.

Mademoiselle Lee, I've been requested...

.. to hold you for trial, for a charge of grand larceny.

The complainer attest that you have stolen...

...how do you say it... a headpiece of diamond, a tiara?

My goodness, judge, a girl needs a little time to think.

You're so much more intelligent than poor little me.

Won't you tell me what I ought to say?

- Please, answer the charge, Miss Lee. - Yes, judge, I was going to.

I was just thinking. It was all a terrible misunderstanding.

You see, judge, sometimes life is very hard for a girl like I.

Especially if she happens to be pretty like I and have blond hair.

We can do without the philosophy. We have interest in the facts, only.

"Monsieur le President, qu'il plaît au tribunal..."

Mr. Pritchard is a little confused...

...and would like to bring up a question.

I can hardly blame him. What is the question?

Mr. Pritchard doesn't see very well...

...and would like to look at mademoiselle Lee, more closely.

Permission granted.

- Now Miss Lee, I should like .. - Why, Mr. Pritchard, how nice to see you!

Yes, Miss Lee... You are Miss Lee, aren't you?

That's just who I am, all right. But my friends call me Lorelei.

I do hope you're my friend, because...

...I just love to have handsome gentlemen be my friends.

Well, my eyes are not what they might be.

- Have you ever heard me sing? - No.

- Are you sure? - Oh, I've not had the pleasure.

Thank you ever so!

Did you hear me? Stop her! Take her to the witness stand!

The rest of you take your places.

You are fired!

How could my son get mixed up with that type of girl?

"Asseyz vous!"

Now, young lady, we're here to dispense justice.

Not to watch a cabaret show. You understand me?

- Yes, judge. - All right.

Did you or did you not steal the diamond tiara?

Oh, no, sir. I did not steal it.

The fact is, Lady Beekman's husband gave it to me.

Your Honor, I'd like to give some information!

The defendant here is not...

"Silence!"

You have evidence that affects this case?

- Yes, Sir, I have. - Well, by all means.

Your Honor, before he talks, could I explain something?

Go ahead, Miss Lee.

Well, I have a friend named Dorothy, and she's a really good friend.

And Dorothy knows I would never do anything that was really wrong.

- Miss Lee, do you have to say this? - Yes, sir, I do.

There's a certain young man that Dorothy likes.

In fact, she's very fond of him.

And, Dorothy would never speak to this man again...

...if he ever did anything to hurt me, Lorelei.

So I think this young man had just better know that...

...well, well, Dorothy thinks she's in love with him.

- Mr. Esmond, I resign. - What?

I just quit the case, you don't owe me a dime.

What's got into you? Are you out of your mind?

Hmmm, but I like it that way.

- Judge, I've changed my mind. - What?

I haven't anything to say.

Oh, this becomes more and more confusing.

But the solution is simple. My decision is this:

The property in question will be placed in custody of this court...

...until its rightful owner can be established by an affidavit...

...from Lord Beekman himself.

Now, Miss Lee, you will give me the tiara.

But, judge, I can't.

If you refuse, I must put you in prison.

Well, I don't refuse, I just haven't got it. It was stolen.

Your Honor...

...I think I know where that thing is and think I know who's got it.

- Who are you, by the way? - I'm a private detective, your honor.

If you'll give me a couple of policemen and wait about half an hour...

...I can bring the tiara back and settle this thing.

Anything would be better than this. Go with him.

"Accompagnez-le. Oui!"

"L'audience est supendue"

There he is.

"Pardon, monsieur. Vous allez nous suivre."

- What's that? - "Vous allez nous suivre."

What's he saying? "Question d'arrêt, monsiuer. Allez!

Speak English! I don't speak... This is outrageous! -"Mais avec nous."

I'm a British subject! You'll hear about this!

This is positively outrageous! Your Honor, I demand a lawyer.

"Que se decouvre!" "Decouvrez vous!"

What? What did you say?

- Good evening, your Lordship. - Pritchard!

The policemen want you to remove your hat.

Well, why doesn't he say so?

What are you doing, send for the British consulate.

- Meantime, I'll take this. - Hey, give that back. - In just a second.

Your Honor, this is Sir Francis Beekman.

And this, I believe, is the missing tiara.

That's private property!

I'm sure Miss Lee will be glad to return it.

I certainly would.

But before that happens, I believe...

His Honor asked Miss Lee to give him the tiara.

- I did! - I say, that isn't...

I wouldn't go into that, if I were you, Mr. Finch.

Finch?

- Miss Lee. - Thank you.

- Your Honor. - Thank you.

"Maitre Courtier..."

Thank you.

- Monsieur Pritchard. - Thank you. Your Lordship.

Thank you.

Case dismissed!

But, five minutes ago you said you would marry me.

But that's before Dorothy phoned me.

But what on earth could she say to make you change your mind?

She just said everything's okay now.

I don't quite understand...

- Oh, dear. - Well.

- Hello, Father. - Hello, son.

I know what you're here for Father, and I don't care.

I've made up my mind. I'm gonna make her marry me.

Oh, bless you heart, that's wonderful.

- I presume this is the young lady? - Well, yes.

Such a pretty little girl! American?

Yes, except on my father and mother side. They're Irish.

Believe me, son. I'm delighted about this.

I've wanted to see you married for a long time.

Anybody but that monster, Lorelei Lee.

- What? - Mr. Esmond, I am Lorelei Lee!

Hah, hah. Pretty early in the game to start teasing your father-in-law.

- What's the matter with you, Father? - Nothing. I can take a joke.

What joke? This is Lorelei.

Father, this is not the sort of thing one would joke about.

I don't have my driver's license with me...

...but you can take my word for it. Honest!

Look, that's I. See my name?

Oh...

I'm too old for this sort of thing.

- Father, I don't understand. - You don't understand?

How do you think I feel...

with thousands of Lorelei Lees coming at me from everywhere?

But believe me, son, you're not going to marry any one of them!

Father, I love her.

I love her very much.

I've never had a feeling...

Oh, shut up! Young lady, you don't fool me one bit.

I'm not trying to. But I bet I could, though.

No, you might convince this...

...jackass that you love him, but you'll never convince me.

That's too bad. Because I do love him.

Certainly. For his money.

No! Honestly.

Have you got the nerve stand there and you expect me to believe...

...that you don't want to marry my son for his money?

It's true.

Then what do you want to marry him for?

- I want to marry him for your money. - There!

Oh, Lorelei!

Don't you see that's why we have to have his consent, silly.

Well, at least we're getting down to brass tacks.

You admit that all you're after is money.

No, I don't. Aren't you funny?

Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty?

You might not marry a girl just because she's pretty.

But my goodness, doesn't it help?

And if you had a daughter...

...wouldn't you rather she didn't marry a poor man?

- But I was just... - You'd want her to have the most...

...wonderful things in the world, and to be very happy.

Why is it wrong for me to want those things?

Well, I concede that...

Say, they told me you were stupid. You don't sound stupid to me.

I can be smart when it's important. But most men don't like it.

Except Gus.

He's always been interested in my brains.

No, no, that much of a fool he's not.

Father, you've changed your mind?

I don't know, son, I just don't know what to tell you.

Daddy?

No, Daddy, not you. I guess I mean "Sonny."

I'd like to spend about three minutes alone with your father.

- Three minutes alone. - Run along, darling.

Yes, dear.

Now, Mr. Esmond, about what we were speaking.

Well, there's a great deal to consider. I just can't imagine...

Please, take your places.

Remember honey...

...on your wedding day, it's all right to say yes.
