What was that terrible noise, darling?

A pile of stuff fell off a shelf

in the cellar.

I pulled just a little bit on a

clothesline and nearly had my skull crushed by

a sewing machine.

Those things do happen.

Have you been up to that shelf or

anything lately?

Why not?

Why?

Because, well, everything was poised to fall, darling.

Are you blaming me?

Blaming your carelessness, yes.

I arranged those suitcases up there.

And I'd never put them so that they'd

fall at a mere touch.

Now, I'm not saying...

Blaming my carelessness?

Now, what I'm getting at, my dear, is

that you want something to happen to you,

whether you realise it or not.

But you've got to be more careful, Olivia.

Oh, darling, please don't cry.

I'm trying to help.

I'm not criticising.

I know, Lauren.

You're good.

But my life, it doesn't seem worth living

anymore, I suppose.

I don't mean that I'm trying to end

my life.

You are.

Still thinking of your...

That young man, Stephan.

You made me promise not to think of

him, so I haven't.

I swear it, Lauren.

But I can't help.

I still love Stephan.

She's done it now.

She's probably gone and killed herself.

I'm coming, darling.

I'm coming.

You think he's dead, Olivia?

Appears to be.

Well?

He's dead.

Finally got him.

We must have used every trick in the

book.

I'd say this one looks pretty accidental, wouldn't

you?

No one could prove it, wasn't it?

Uh-huh.

I must go.

Couldn't you stay for a little while, Stephan?

You'll have to phone the police.

I know.

I just thought that perhaps before I called,

we might...

I can't.

I have a rehearsal today for a very

important audition.

It's a fantastic part.

If I get it, it will do wonders

for my acting career.

I want to be your career from now

on, darling.

Olivia, acting is very important to me.

Now you know that.

Yes, Stephan.

I do.

I'll try to be more patient.

Please forgive me.

I do, Olivia.

When will I see you?

Uh, next Thursday in front of the plaza,

usual time.

Not till next Thursday.

But Stephan...

Olivia, I have a full schedule of rehearsals.

But...

Olivia, you promised to be patient.

I love you, Stephan.

I love you, too, Olivia.

I was upstairs in bed reading when I

heard a terrible crash.

I came down and...

and found poor Laura.

It was terrible.

I warned him so many times, but he...

he was careless, forgetful.

Uh, apartment five.

Aye, aye, that I did.

An order of fried rice.

Some beef lo mein.

Egg foo young.

I love egg foo young.

And some egg foo young.

Plenty of duck sauce and hot mustard.

Lots of duck sauce and hot mustard.

Right.

No more rehearsing?

Lunch break.

I'll let it ring.

I can't.

Might be an agent, a producer.

Might even be a part in a Broadway

play.

Hello?

Hello, Stephan?

Olivia, darling, how extraordinary.

I was just this moment going to call

you.

Don't you remember?

We had a date today at the plaza.

Ah, a date today at the plaza.

No, I didn't forget.

As a matter of fact, that's just what

I was going to call you about, Olivia,

my darling.

Olivia, my darling.

Was that a woman?

No, that was not a woman you heard.

That was just an actress.

Olivia, look, let's just start fresh.

Sweetheart, let's make it tomorrow.

Same time, same place, okay?

Really, Stephan?

You must learn to be more responsible.

It takes over an hour on the train

to get to town.

All right.

I'll see you tomorrow.

And do try to be prompt.

Did he really say she's not a woman,

she's just an actress?

That's bizarre.

Who's Olivia?

A woman friend, a patron of sorts.

Um, is she rich?

Her late husband had all the money.

Depends on what he did with it.

Do you love her?

Who loves anybody anymore?

Let's just say I appreciate her.

As much as you appreciate me?

As much, but for different reasons.

Must be the Chinese food.

I'm starving.

Olivia, you have no right to suspect me

of anything more than diligently practising my art.

What you see here is the second act

of a new bedroom farce that may star

Stephan Shaw next season on Broadway.

He's telling the truth, honey.

We are rehearsing a bedroom farce.

Ha!

You ordered Chinese food, lady?

No, I did not order the Chinese food.

Olivia, Olivia, now you must believe me.

It was a rehearsal, just a rehearsal.

If I get this part, well, it's what

I have dreamed of.

And, Olivia, I've also dreamed of someday sharing

a life with you.

Hi, mister.

You ordered Chinese food?

Yeah.

If that's true, Stephan, then let's make that

someday soon.

The millions of dollars I inherited mean nothing

without you.

You really love me?

With all my heart, my love.

Great rehearsal, Stephan.

Don't forget me if you get the part.

Stephan, you make me so happy.

I want so much to make you as

happy.

Let's take a trip around the world.

It'll be our honeymoon.

Wonderful.

I would love to travel Greece, Africa, Asia.

And speaking of Asia, would you like some

egg foo young?

Egg foo what?

Young, dear, egg foo young.

It's a Chinese dish.

Would you like some?

Certainly not.

I detest Chinese food.

I

detest

Chinese food.

That's $18 out of 50.

Keep the change.

Thanks.

Stephan, you are so awful.

Can't you control yourself?

I guess not.

I've suffered nothing but humiliation during our honeymoon.

Except for the time in Singapore.

You never once looked at me lovingly.

And you only did then because I paid

off that Korean bookie you owed $4,000.

You don't love me at all, Stephan.

You think you're being insensitive, Olivia?

Oh, insensitive indeed.

What about that little coed cabbie you just

tipped?

$32 of my money.

Your money means nothing to me.

Why is it so cold in this house?

Because the heat's been off.

Can we turn it on?

Well, that's exactly what I was planning to

do this moment.

You ought to be more careful, Olivia.

Accidents like that, I'm told, can be fateful.

Stay away from me!

Olivia, you don't think that I would push

you.

You had an accident.

And accidents are, well, accidents.

Hello?

Gloria, sweetheart, it is Stephan.

I am desperate.

I must see you.

I miss you something awful.

Sounds like your marriage was a big mistake.

Beyond big, I'd say the mistake was colossal.

Well, if you're so missed, why don't you

just leave?

Are you insane?

Part with all that money?

I mean, how often does one get to

be a millionaire?

Well, if it's the money you want, why

are you calling me?

Because I want you as well.

I am miserable without you.

Well, you can't have everything, Stephan.

Why not?

I mean, who says so?

Me, for one.

Because I'm not just gonna hang around waiting

for Stephan Shaw.

I mean, there are a lot of guys

who are just as desperate as you are

to be with me, you know.

I mean, I'm very fond of you, Stephan,

but if you're not available, well...

I will be soon.

I've got a plan.

We'll be together, darling.

I promise you.

And we won't be poor.

Really?

Sorry, dear!

It's that nasty hook of mine.

Yeah, I like it.

Yeah.

Ah!

Oh!

Oh!

I love you, Glory.

Sure you do.

You crazy, mixed-up kid.

What do I have to do, pull a

star from the sky to prove it?

Stop with the movie dialogue, Stephan.

You told me on the phone that if

I came down here, you'd give me something

very, very special.

So far, all we've been doing is fooling

around.

Fooling around?

Is that how you describe my kisses?

Stephan, I didn't drive 50 miles just for

a little country mauling.

I'm beginning to think that you're a loser.

Glory, don't say that.

Come on, come on, don't do that.

Uh-uh, Stephan.

There's this guy I met who wants to

marry me.

I've got to look after myself, you know.

I'm going.

Glory, Glory, no, listen, listen to me.

Olivia, my wife, she's...

well, she's...

she's ill.

So?

Very ill.

So?

So, she may die soon.

We could get married.

When?

After a proper period of mourning.

I meant, when do you think she'll die,

Stephan?

This merchandise is perishable.

The shelf life for lovely young ladies, as

you know, is limited.

In a few years, all the warranties and

guarantees for little old Gloria will run out.

And then where will I be?

Wait a few months.

No way.

Donald wants to marry me next week.

I'll be thinking about you on my wedding

night, Stephan.

Don't do anything I call you, Gloria.

I'm rich, you know.

Very, very rich.

I've got to think of something.

Really, darling, I'm terribly sorry for acting so,

well, suspicious of you.

Suspicious?

When was that, dear?

Oh, when I fell on the cellar step.

Oh, you are sweet for making light of

it.

But I did act rather foolishly.

Not another word, Olivia dear.

From now on, harmony will reign upon our

humble home.

And suspicion and distrust will be banished forever.

Freezer repair, lady.

Oh, yes, the freezer's in the basement.

Hey, listen, I got a van.

Is there anywhere I can park it, you

know, so I can get a little closer?

Just around the corner.

Right.

You really are a dear, Stephan.

And you, my sweetest angel.

Sweets for a sweet.

Oh.

Oh, my God.

Thermostat needed fixing, lady.

Otherwise, the freezer's working real good.

Dangerous, lady.

Very dangerous.

You got to keep that automatic door latch

clear, so the door will engage and stay

open.

If you was to walk in this freezer

and the door slammed shut behind you, you'd

freeze to death in no time.

There's no inside handle on that door.

You could get killed.

Killed?

That's right.

Happened to a customer of mine a couple

of years ago.

A kid.

He left his skateboard by the latch.

I guess she never saw it when she

walked in.

Bam.

The door slammed shut behind her.

When they finally figured out where she was,

it was too late.

Too late, huh?

That's right.

Dead.

She was frozen like one of them little

lambs you got in there.

I gotta go, lady.

Oh, Stephan.

Darling.

Would you be a lovely and get two

nice steaks from the freezer for tonight's dinner?

Certainly, my dear.

Darling.

I searched all over that freezer and I

couldn't find those darn steaks.

I've gotta go into town, sweetheart.

Would you mind getting them yourself?

Did you really look, Stephan?

Yes.

Now, I've got to go.

All right, Stephan.

I'll find them.

Don't be late for dinner.

Stephan!

Stephan, I know you're out there!

Oh, darling, I am so glad you could

make it.

We're going to have a wonderful evening.

But is it all right for us to

be together?

I mean, is it really cool with her?

Oh, it's definitely cool with her.

Oh, let's get out of here.

No, no, no.

I adore the rain.

But you'll catch your dad the call.

Oh, no.

Oh, shit.

Oh, shit.

Oh, shit.
