Short filmTranscript
00:00Where were you born?
00:01In a hospital.
00:02I know, but where?
00:03Middletown.
00:04Middletown, Ohio. That's my favorite town from now on.
00:07Middletown, Connecticut.
00:08Oh, and now, my pet, how old are you?
00:12Don't you know?
00:1321?
00:14Oh, you are a darling.
00:16Just put down 26.
00:18That's 1912. Go on.
00:21October the 16th.
00:23And do you realize you've never even given me a birthday present?
00:26Huh?
00:27Oh.
00:31Hello?
00:33Yes, this is the license bureau.
00:36What was the name?
00:38Waring?
00:42No, there's no record of Waring.
00:45All right, I'll try.
00:48Is there a major Waring in the room?
00:51It's our turn, dear.
00:52Well, how does he know our name?
00:53Our name, isn't that lovely?
00:55Go on, go on.
00:58I'm Major Waring.
00:59Somebody wants to talk to you on the telephone.
01:03Hello?
01:04I'm sorry to break in on such a momentous occasion.
01:07Yes, I can imagine. I've been through it.
01:10There's a coded message that Mr. Hill is anxious to have deciphered.
01:14Well, can't the bureau handle it, Baird? I'm just about to be...
01:18Oh, I see.
01:19Well, we should tell him you're going to be married.
01:21He knows it.
01:22Well, tell him again.
01:24What time do you suggest?
01:25I'd like you to make it, Major, as soon as you can.
01:28Considering the job you have at hand.
01:30Fine. Within an hour.
01:32All right.
01:34Thanks.
01:35Who was it?
01:36That was Baird from the Secretary of State's office.
01:38They just picked up a coded diplomatic message and want to know what's in it.
01:41Nice honeymoon decoding ciphers.
01:42Well, they can wait. I'll finish this and we'll get married right away.
01:45And then we'll go back to work?
01:47Well, we'll find out what it's all about.
01:48And no honeymoon?
01:50Well, it won't take long to break down that code.
01:52No honeymoon, no marriage.
01:54Well, we'll leave right after the job's finished.
01:56No use arguing. We're still in the Army.
01:58The quicker we get back there and find the answer, the quicker we'll get back here.
02:01With me, marriage and honeymoon go together.
02:03Not marriage and work.
02:04Now, listen. I guess I've got something to say.
02:06Of course you have, darling. Come along.
