00:01:37Oh, take me to the fair, Johnny!
00:01:40Take me to the fair!
00:01:43There's fun and frolic there, Johnny!
00:01:47Oh, take me...
00:01:54To the fair!
00:02:00Oh, let's have a look at you, dearie.
00:02:03Oh, I'm all done in.
00:02:04Slow train.
00:02:05Gracious, what a mix-up.
00:02:07I've got the kettle on.
00:02:09How does it feel to be back in London?
00:02:12Wonderful.
00:02:15Um, this room hasn't changed a bit.
00:02:17I haven't done a thing to it.
00:02:19Not since you lived here with Tilly.
00:02:22Come now, Tilly.
00:02:23Come along.
00:02:24Come along.
00:02:25Come along.
00:02:26Come along.
00:02:27You haven't done a thing to it since the Boer War.
00:02:32A spot of tea?
00:02:33Mm, please.
00:02:34Here.
00:02:35Let's have a shot of rum.
00:02:36It'll keep the fog out.
00:02:37No, thanks.
00:02:38Tell me about Tilly.
00:02:39It was very sudden, wasn't it?
00:02:40Oh, just like that.
00:02:41She was planning to leave for America.
00:02:42She had her tickets and her plane tickets.
00:02:43Oh, dear.
00:02:44Oh, dear.
00:02:45Oh, dear.
00:02:46Oh, dear.
00:02:47Oh, dear.
00:02:48Oh, dear.
00:02:49Oh, dear.
00:02:50Oh, dear.
00:02:51Oh, dear.
00:02:52Oh, dear.
00:02:53Oh, dear.
00:02:54Oh, dear.
00:02:55Oh, dear.
00:02:57So when she reached home, well, as soon as she saw the ì•„ asses and everything,
00:02:59well, as soon as she reached home, well,
00:03:01as soon as she saw the asses and everything,
00:03:04and then she got the grip.
00:03:06And in three days, she was gone.
00:03:08and then she got the grip.
00:03:10She was gone.
00:03:12Poor Tilly.
00:03:13Poor Tilly.
00:03:14What's become of her children?
00:03:16I have them here with me.
00:03:17They're asleep inside.
00:03:19A landlady feels a kind of responsibility for the things
00:03:22a tenant leaves behind.
00:03:24May I see them?
00:03:25Oh, certainly.
00:03:27Come on.
00:03:29Come on.
00:03:37They're adorable.
00:03:38Twins they are.
00:03:40This one's Joyce, and that one's Johnny Junior after his father.
00:03:48I never met Tilly's husband. What was he like?
00:03:52Johnny Gray wasn't like some of them Americans, boasting, bragging, and blowing like a tea kettle.
00:03:58She must have loved him very much, Thomas.
00:04:01She did, and I couldn't blame her.
00:04:03He was a soft-spoken gentleman, lots of times.
00:04:07No matter how hard I listened, I couldn't hear what he was telling her.
00:04:13Does he know about Tilly?
00:04:15No, not yet.
00:04:17She was trying to locate him through the Red Cross.
00:04:20She cabled his division that they'd gone back to America, and him with them, most likely.
00:04:25But surely he would have let her know.
00:04:27No!
00:04:29That's why she was going to America, to try and find him.
00:04:33But he couldn't have just sneaked off.
00:04:35I didn't think it of him, but lots of them did.
00:04:40Only last Sunday I was listening to one of them soapbox orators, you know, in Hyde Park.
00:04:47Oh, he was ruddy about the situation.
00:04:51Fifty thousand of our good British girls, he says, married American G.I.s.
00:04:57Lend leases all right in this way, but are we lending our girls or are they leasing their boys?
00:05:04Moreover, he said, I'd like a glass of beer or a good day at the races,
00:05:10for every girl was left behind, kids and all.
00:05:15But how about those children?
00:05:17Yes, how about them? What can we do with them?
00:05:20We can't just turn them over to the state.
00:05:23What then?
00:05:25They have a father, he should be made to look after them.
00:05:28Yeah, but whom again?
00:05:30Who's going to make him?
00:05:32The Deputy? The Labour Party?
00:05:35Or the United Nations?
00:05:37No, Tom, I am.
00:05:40You're barmy. Don't be idiotic.
00:05:44I'm going to do that for Tilly, she'd have done it for me.
00:05:47How?
00:05:48I'm going to use her passport and her passage and take those children to their father.
00:05:52Have a little money saved up, it's not much, but it'll see me through.
00:05:56But her picture's on the passport.
00:05:58Then I put my picture on it.
00:05:59But that's a criminal offence.
00:06:01Not nearly as criminal as putting those children in an orphanage.
00:06:04You can't fool the army and the Red Cross and everybody.
00:06:09Can't I, though? Who's to say I'm not Mrs. Johnnie Gray?
00:06:13Mr. Johnnie Gray.
00:06:32That sure is a beautiful library you doped out, Mr. Gray.
00:06:35What do you know about libraries, Frank?
00:06:37You borrow all your books from your friends.
00:06:39We're sure going to feel proud when that building is out.
00:06:41Well, you can tell your children you worked right alongside the man who built it.
00:06:44Oh, did you get those blueprints for me?
00:06:46Oh, gee, I forgot, Mr. Gray.
00:06:48Well, you'd better get them or you'll be lying to your kids when you tell them you worked with me.
00:06:51Yes, sir.
00:06:54Oh, hello, Miss Evans.
00:06:55Hello. Hello, dear.
00:06:57Oh, it's darling. You look beautiful.
00:07:00Why shouldn't I? My best fellow sent me orchids and he's taking me out to lunch.
00:07:03Oh, there's nothing of it.
00:07:04I haven't seen your new office yet.
00:07:07Not bad. It's almost as large as father's.
00:07:09Well, I don't mind if it is larger.
00:07:11After all, he started the business. He's entitled to it.
00:07:13The new library.
00:07:17It's lovely.
00:07:19I'm proud of you, John.
00:07:21You're only out of uniform a year and you've designed a new library.
00:07:23Thanks. If you want to belong, I'll get you a car.
00:07:26Sliding ceiling. That's perfect.
00:07:29Yes, you can read in the sunlight and if you don't like the book, you can cross it through the roof.
00:07:34You have such wonderful ideas, John.
00:07:38You're the best one I ever had.
00:07:40Tell me, how do you account for your success, Mr. Gray?
00:07:43You mean with you or in business?
00:07:45Both.
00:07:46Well, I was born in this town with nothing in my pockets but my hands.
00:07:49Then one day I met a girl named Lois.
00:07:51That's where I decided to take my hands out of my pockets and put them to work.
00:07:54I got one around her shoulder and one under her chin.
00:07:57And she was such a weak character that when I asked her to marry me, she said yes.
00:08:01And that, my dear, is how I became the greatest success story of our time.
00:08:05Oh, you idiot.
00:08:08And if I don't run this business into the ground in ten years, it won't be because I haven't tried.
00:08:13Yes?
00:08:15A cable, Mr. Gray.
00:08:17A cable?
00:08:19See, you're becoming international, darling.
00:08:31Anything wrong?
00:08:33No.
00:08:37John, no one could ever accuse you of having a poker face.
00:08:40No, no.
00:08:42It's nothing.
00:08:44Well, if it's nothing, let me see it.
00:08:46No, it's business.
00:08:48Personal business.
00:08:50Just remember that two can play at that, John, and you've started it.
00:08:53Hello, Lois.
00:08:54Hello, Father.
00:08:55Come on, you two. I'll take you to lunch at the club.
00:08:57Well, I'm afraid I won't be there.
00:09:00I just had an important inquiry from Europe.
00:09:02Inquiry?
00:09:04Yes, from England. I've got to find out about it.
00:09:06Do they want you to go over there?
00:09:08No, they want to come over here.
00:09:10I'll turn it over to your assistant.
00:09:12No, I can't turn this over.
00:09:14Oh, come on. It can wait.
00:09:16No, it can't.
00:09:18Lois, I'm afraid John is going to be just like I am about his work, and you want to watch him.
00:09:20He's liable to turn out to be a tired businessman.
00:09:22I may turn out to be just like Mother.
00:09:24I may tire quicker than he does.
00:09:26Yes, Mr. Gray?
00:09:28Call Dr. Davies.
00:09:30Tell him I'm on my way over to his office.
00:09:32It's an emergency.
00:09:36Bob?
00:09:38Hello, John.
00:09:40How's the bridegroom?
00:09:42Don't look like an emergency case to me.
00:09:44Well, I am.
00:09:46So don't be too long.
00:09:48I'll be back in a minute.
00:09:50I'll be back in a minute.
00:09:52I'll be back in a minute.
00:09:55Well, I am. So don't be so darn cheerful.
00:09:57Sit down.
00:09:59Oh, what's the trouble?
00:10:01Bob, you're my best friend.
00:10:03Oh, that's bad.
00:10:05Well, if you're putting it on a personal basis,
00:10:07I suppose I can charge for the visit.
00:10:09What would you say if I told you
00:10:11I might have been married a couple of years ago?
00:10:13What?
00:10:15Yes.
00:10:17And you're afraid Lois might find out you're divorced?
00:10:19But I might not be divorced.
00:10:21Oh, I know it sounds complicated.
00:10:23That's the understatement of the century.
00:10:25But what would you say?
00:10:27If you might have been married and might not have been divorced
00:10:29on Sunday at high noon, you might be a bigamist.
00:10:31I just got this cable from the Red Cross in London.
00:10:33I just got this cable from the Red Cross in London.
00:10:35Your wife, Tillie Gray, and family
00:10:37have sailed aboard the SS Argentine
00:10:39on the American Red Cross.
00:10:41on the American Red Cross.
00:10:43Wife and family?
00:10:45You didn't lose very much time.
00:10:47But I don't know this Tillie Gray.
00:10:49Tillie. Pretty name.
00:10:51I married her.
00:10:53You know, John Gray is a very common American name.
00:10:55There must have been thousands of them in the army.
00:10:57Probably a hundred in your division.
00:10:59Just tell the lady she's barking up the wrong gray.
00:11:01Anyway, the minute she sees you
00:11:03she's going to know you're not her husband.
00:11:05But maybe I am.
00:11:07Maybe she'll know I am and I won't know what she is.
00:11:09Maybe she'll know I am and I won't know what she is.
00:11:11Oh, now, slow up, fella.
00:11:13I'm just an MD, not an analyst.
00:11:15If you want my advice, come clean and stop talking in riddles.
00:11:17I'm ashamed to tell this story.
00:11:20You know, everybody thinks I was a hero.
00:11:22Wounded in action and reported missing.
00:11:24When you came home, the whole town turned out for you.
00:11:26You see, the night before my division left for France
00:11:28I had dinner in the Kit Kat club in London.
00:11:30On my way home in the blackout
00:11:32I heard an air raid siren.
00:11:34I was running for shelter when I bumped into a lamp post
00:11:36and knocked myself cold.
00:11:38That was the bad wound.
00:11:40But I lost my memory completely.
00:11:42For six weeks I dropped out of the world.
00:11:44That was the reported missing.
00:11:46Then I was picked up in a suburb of London
00:11:48So instead of being a hero, I never got out of London
00:11:50and I never got out of bed.
00:11:52You had a complete amnesia, huh?
00:11:54Complete?
00:11:56Those six weeks are a total blank.
00:11:58Bob, is it possible that while I was out of my mind
00:12:00I got married?
00:12:02That's the time most people do it.
00:12:06But could I have married and had a family
00:12:08and not recall a thing?
00:12:10Well, of course, with amnesia anything is possible
00:12:12but why didn't she look you up?
00:12:14Well, it was just before D-Day.
00:12:17I thought I was with my outfit in France.
00:12:19And you don't remember anything about her?
00:12:21Nothing about her or myself or anything that happened.
00:12:23You don't even remember your honeymoon?
00:12:25Honeymoon?
00:12:27I don't remember saying I do.
00:12:29You don't?
00:12:31No, I don't.
00:12:33And what's more, I don't even know if I did.
00:12:35You've been robbed.
00:12:37Yes, you're in a little trouble, all right.
00:12:39A little trouble?
00:12:41I'm going to lose my fiancé.
00:12:43I'm going to have to live with a wife I've never even met
00:12:45and you say I'm in a little trouble.
00:12:47Brace up, John. You'll come through.
00:12:49I'll come through with a wife and family.
00:12:51How many kids can a man have in six weeks?
00:12:53I think a fellow in Canada holds the record.
00:12:55Quintuplets.
00:12:57Look, I'm running and I'll have six.
00:12:59If it's six, he'll make a fortune from postcards alone.
00:13:03I could jump right through that window
00:13:05if I didn't think it'd hurt your practice.
00:13:15Where's Daddy?
00:13:17He'll be here in a minute.
00:13:19Dearie!
00:13:21This is my father.
00:13:23He's gone.
00:13:25He's gone.
00:13:27He's gone.
00:13:29He's gone.
00:13:31He's gone.
00:13:33He's gone.
00:13:35He's gone.
00:13:37He's gone.
00:13:39He's gone.
00:13:41He's gone.
00:13:43Dearie, this is my area I've been telling you about.
00:13:45Mrs. Gray and I shared a bunk on the boat.
00:13:47How do you do?
00:13:49You bet.
00:13:51Hasn't your old man showed up yet?
00:13:53Oh, he should be along any minute.
00:13:55Mrs. Gray's going to live in Rochester.
00:13:57We'll be in Tucson, Arizona.
00:13:59That shouldn't be far.
00:14:01I hate to walk it in my bare feet.
00:14:03Well, cheerio, and good luck.
00:14:05Cheerio.
00:14:07Cheerio.
00:14:09Well, Mrs. Gray, it's strange your husband isn't here.
00:14:12We cabled you a sailing a week ago.
00:14:14I don't know what to make of it.
00:14:16Something must have gone wrong.
00:14:18Maybe I could go to him.
00:14:20Is Rochester far from here?
00:14:22Rochester, New York?
00:14:24Is there another one?
00:14:26There's Rochester, Minnesota.
00:14:28Two cities with the same name?
00:14:30I suppose this country's so big they ran out of names.
00:14:32Which is his home?
00:14:34New York.
00:14:36Will that take long?
00:14:38About six hours.
00:14:40Then you could surprise your husband.
00:14:42Yes.
00:14:44I could, couldn't I?
00:14:48Mr. Gray, I've located another John Gray.
00:14:50Good.
00:14:52Where can I reach him?
00:14:54He works at a gas station.
00:14:56They're getting him on the phone now.
00:14:58How many Grays does that make?
00:15:00Six all told.
00:15:02And I'm the lucky seventh.
00:15:04Hello, Mr. Gray.
00:15:06Hold on.
00:15:09Mr. Gray?
00:15:11Yeah, European Theater.
00:15:13Sure, I was in London.
00:15:15Old thing.
00:15:17Well, Mr. Gray, your wife and family are arriving from London today.
00:15:19My wife and family?
00:15:21Hey, what number do you want?
00:15:23Now, you got the wrong Gray.
00:15:25I did not have no children
00:15:27whilst I was in the army.
00:15:29Look, buddy,
00:15:31I don't take that insinuation from no man.
00:15:33I happen to have a wife and family
00:15:35right here, see?
00:15:37And I wish they was in London.
00:15:41Are you sure we've exhausted
00:15:43all the Grays in town?
00:15:45A big town like this?
00:15:47Yes, you're the only one left.
00:15:49Just because I'm the only one left
00:15:51is no reason to pin them on me.
00:15:55Sandwiches again.
00:15:57Oh, John.
00:15:59Well, there's so much coming up
00:16:01I'm afraid to leave the office.
00:16:03After tomorrow, I'll take over your diet.
00:16:05Why? What else is wrong with me?
00:16:07Oh, I don't know. You're such a dreamer.
00:16:09You're always thinking of something far away.
00:16:11Well, that's not fair.
00:16:13After all, you're judging me at the office.
00:16:15I'll be a different man at home.
00:16:17Well, since you won't be dragged out,
00:16:19I'll be running along.
00:16:21See you at dinner.
00:16:23But darling, I told you the boys are giving me a bachelor dinner tonight.
00:16:25Oh, darn it. Can't I go?
00:16:27No, it's 100% stag.
00:16:29They'll just kid the pants off me
00:16:31and pull a lot of practical jokes.
00:16:34Well, let them have their fun.
00:16:36They were single once.
00:16:38A telegram, Mr. Gray.
00:16:58Oh, the boys.
00:17:00They started to kid me already.
00:17:02The boys.
00:17:04Funny is all that?
00:17:06Oh, it's funnier than that.
00:17:08What's it all about?
00:17:10Well, it's not the kind of thing
00:17:12a man can tell his fiancée.
00:17:14I'm surprised Western Union would take it.
00:17:16Oh, Western Union will take anything.
00:17:18Maybe they will, but I won't.
00:17:20But darling, it'll be years
00:17:22before you think this is funny.
00:17:24Perhaps you can tell me on our wooden anniversary.
00:17:26I'll stop by for a drink before the party.
00:17:28Don't bother. You'd have to rush, though.
00:17:31Take your time. Be with the boys.
00:17:33You're all such fun together.
00:17:53Come in.
00:17:55John?
00:17:57I'm in here, Bob.
00:18:01I brought this along just in case.
00:18:03I've got it all figured out.
00:18:05First of all, what's the most important thing?
00:18:07Postpone your wedding.
00:18:09No, no. I mean about the situation tonight.
00:18:11You've got to meet Tilly,
00:18:13my wild English bride, and your family.
00:18:15Her train arrives at 12.15.
00:18:17You can sneak away from the party
00:18:19and head her off at the station.
00:18:21Take her to the York Hotel if you like that.
00:18:23It sounds English.
00:18:25I called up and got a room in your name.
00:18:27Thanks, old man. That's very nice of you.
00:18:29You can use my name anytime.
00:18:33Thanks.
00:18:35Now, when you get back to the party,
00:18:37stand in the doorway and signal to me.
00:18:39If there's one kid, hold up one finger.
00:18:41Two kids, two fingers.
00:18:43And so on.
00:18:45And if there's a family resemblance,
00:18:47I mean, if they happen to look like me,
00:18:49I'll give you this.
00:18:53You have a Mr. John Gray staying here?
00:18:55Yes, madam. Suite 720.
00:18:57Well, this is Mrs. Gray and their children.
00:18:59You may go up to his suite if you like,
00:19:01and he can register for you later.
00:19:03Would you take those bags up to Mr. Gray's suite, please?
00:19:05Oh, no, really, I'd rather not. Not quite yet.
00:19:07But why not?
00:19:09Well, I don't look presentable.
00:19:11I want to freshen up a little.
00:19:13Well, the children, you know how it is.
00:19:15But you can bathe in his suite.
00:19:17But I'd rather not.
00:19:19Why don't I get a room
00:19:21and freshen up a little
00:19:23and give myself time to compose myself
00:19:26and fix the children properly?
00:19:28Well, if you'd rather.
00:19:30Mrs. Gray will take a room.
00:19:36I'll get her.
00:19:40Hello?
00:19:42Hello, are you there?
00:19:44Are you there?
00:19:46It's her. She.
00:19:48Who?
00:19:50Tilly.
00:19:52Yes?
00:19:54Could you put me through to Johnny Gray, please?
00:19:56This is he. Him.
00:19:58He? Where is she?
00:20:00Where are you?
00:20:02New York?
00:20:04No, I'm here in Rochester.
00:20:06At the station?
00:20:08No, here at the hotel.
00:20:14She's here at the hotel.
00:20:16You can't get a room in any hotel in the country,
00:20:18but she got one.
00:20:20Oh, they'll do anything for you here.
00:20:23We're very disappointed you weren't at the boat to meet us.
00:20:25I was sick.
00:20:27I couldn't make it.
00:20:29You're not well? Oh, how beastly for you.
00:20:31I'm so sorry.
00:20:33We missed our train and the Red Cross put us on a plane.
00:20:35Our first flight. The children loved it.
00:20:37How many, uh,
00:20:39in your party?
00:20:41Are you joking?
00:20:43No, no, I'm not joking.
00:20:45How many children did you bring with you?
00:20:47Just a choice, said Johnny Junior.
00:20:49Would you like to talk to them?
00:20:51Can they talk?
00:20:53Of course.
00:20:55Hey, darling, say hello to Daddy.
00:20:57Are you there, Daddy? I'm Johnny.
00:20:59When are you coming to see us, Daddy?
00:21:01Well, soon, Johnny.
00:21:03Hold on.
00:21:05I'll send you a big kiss.
00:21:09Hey, Roger.
00:21:11Speak to Daddy.
00:21:13Are you there, Daddy?
00:21:15I'm Johnny. Can you see it?
00:21:17I'll send you a big kiss.
00:21:19Hold on.
00:21:25Affectionate, aren't they?
00:21:27Well,
00:21:29tell your mother not to leave the room
00:21:31and I'll phone her later.
00:21:33What did she want?
00:21:35Me?
00:21:37What do you think she wanted? Life's catching up with you, John.
00:21:39It's way ahead of me.
00:21:41It's a funny feeling talking to your kids
00:21:43for the first time when they may be yours.
00:21:46Too bad you missed the period when they were crawling.
00:21:48That's when they're cute, isn't it?
00:21:50Yeah, isn't it?
00:21:52What are you going to tell Lois?
00:21:54Well, I can't tell her I got her for a wedding present.
00:22:06Were you looking for someone?
00:22:08Yes, Mr. John Gray.
00:22:10He asked me to wait in my room until he telephoned.
00:22:12But it's getting so late.
00:22:14I'll speak to the manager.
00:22:16The police department has been swamped with work
00:22:18since John Gray's engagement was announced.
00:22:20Women all over the city are lining up
00:22:22to sue him for a breach of promise.
00:22:26Now, John Gray, you're going to have to answer
00:22:28the charges of all these cast-off women.
00:22:30Riley, let them in.
00:22:32Come on, girls.
00:22:34Go and get them.
00:22:37Twins?
00:22:39She said she was told to wait in her room
00:22:41until she was called.
00:22:43Say, I'll bet she's a payoff
00:22:45to all those girls at Chief of Police, Doug.
00:22:47That's a very funny gag.
00:22:51Mr. Bruce, this is Mrs. Gray
00:22:53and the children.
00:22:55Hello.
00:22:57Well, now, aren't they cute?
00:22:59They look just like Mr. Gray.
00:23:01You think so?
00:23:03I'll bet someone had to scour the town
00:23:05for a pair like that.
00:23:07Just follow me, please.
00:23:09Scour the town?
00:23:15Now, there's your daddy, children.
00:23:17Just run up to him,
00:23:19throw your arms around him, and yell,
00:23:21Dad!
00:23:23Do you think they should disturb him now?
00:23:25Oh, sure. Now's the time.
00:23:27The other act's finished.
00:23:29Act?
00:23:31Go ahead, kids.
00:23:33Daddy!
00:23:43Well, they carried it off fine.
00:23:45It's all over.
00:23:47You can go ahead and get the kids now.
00:23:49Yes, I think I'd better.
00:23:51They seem to be annoying him.
00:23:53Don't you think it's bad taste?
00:23:55It's just a gag.
00:23:57I'm the toastmaster,
00:23:59Dr. Davison.
00:24:02This is Mr. Evans.
00:24:04How do you do?
00:24:06Good evening.
00:24:08And, of course, you know this man, John Gray.
00:24:10As you say, of course.
00:24:12Hello. I suppose you want to put the children to bed.
00:24:14It's very late.
00:24:16Won't you be seated?
00:24:18No, thank you.
00:24:20Let's go and have a drink, Mr. Evans.
00:24:22This way.
00:24:24These are fine kids you have here.
00:24:26Don't you mean fine children you've got?
00:24:28Please, not here.
00:24:30This is your dinner, isn't it?
00:24:32Yes, it is.
00:24:34So you're getting married again?
00:24:36Well, that was the general idea.
00:24:38How horrible.
00:24:40How could you forget the woman you loved so quickly
00:24:42and your two beautiful children?
00:24:44Madam, believe me, you've got the wrong man.
00:24:46I haven't any children.
00:24:48Oh, how miserable of you,
00:24:50denying your own flesh and blood.
00:24:52Why are you so sure they're my flesh and blood?
00:24:54Are you or are you not John Gray
00:24:56of the 18th Airborne Division, Rochester, USA?
00:24:59I thought you'd be proud of your children.
00:25:01I thought...
00:25:03I thought you'd be proud of them
00:25:05and want to bring them up as real citizens.
00:25:07Now look, if it'll do any good,
00:25:09I'll have my lawyer comb this country for your husband.
00:25:11And if you'll just let me know what the trip cost,
00:25:13I'll be glad to...
00:25:15That won't be necessary.
00:25:17I thought that when you saw these children
00:25:19that it would bring back your bad memory.
00:25:21But since it hasn't,
00:25:23I'll go to the Red Cross and the Army
00:25:25and I'll see that your children get justice,
00:25:27that you're gonna have a good life soon.
00:25:29And plenty of time to make a change.
00:25:31Take care, then, I'll leave you to it.
00:25:33I'm so awful in love with you.
00:25:35I've done it, I've done it!
00:25:37I've hired a gunman to shoot you.
00:25:39So you've got this, I've got that,
00:25:41I've done it, I've done it!
00:25:43Now, you don't say you won't do anything for me.
00:25:45I won't do anything for you,
00:25:47but I'll do a lot for you.
00:25:49I won't do anything for you,
00:25:51I'll do a lot for you.
00:25:53I'll do a lot for you,
00:25:55just go right past her. I can't go past a picket line. You could if you wish you didn't
00:26:01have the right. If I could just remember. From here on in she isn't going to give you
00:26:06a chance to forget. And I had a photographic memory. If you don't start remembering you're
00:26:13going to have a photographic finish. Well the kids aren't mine I'm positive. All cards
00:26:18Johnny only fools say they're positive. Are you sure about that. I'm positive. Say John.
00:26:28I'm not an analyst but maybe I can help you remember. How. I just lie down here and relax
00:26:35let your mind drift back to nineteen forty two. Drift back. This is all right if it floats
00:26:40back. What does the word drift bring to your mind. Drift brings draft and draft brings
00:26:46beer. Come on let's have a drink. You recall being drafted. I was the first number of the
00:26:52fishbowl. You remember the boat. The boat. Atlantic Ocean. Boy was I sick. Remember Ireland.
00:27:04I was the greenest thing in Ireland that day. You remember arriving in London. Sure here's
00:27:10the good old London. Did you meet any girls there. I met one at the canteen. I danced
00:27:17with her. Well come on let's dance. Maybe the action will help you remember. Can you
00:27:37think of what you said to her. No but I remember she walked off the floor and left me in the
00:27:42middle of the dance. Can't you recall what you said. It must have been personal. You better
00:27:48take it easy John you've got a big day tomorrow. Forget tomorrow. I'm trying to remember yesterday.
00:27:54Alcohol will help you. Down the brain. On my brain. When I've had a couple my brain clicks
00:28:00like a button. I can hear it click. Sometimes it clicks so loud it wakes me up. Does your brain
00:28:06feel clear now. There is click. You're in London. Oh yeah. Camp outside of London. Training.
00:28:15Commando tanks. Hit the dirt. Just a minute soldier. You follow me. I'm a captain. No.
00:29:01What's the objective. The objective is to get to my room. What's the matter. That beachhead's too
00:29:20dangerous. Is she still there. Yes but she can't outlast me. I'm going out through the back. There's
00:29:29only one solution. Get plastered. Then another lamppost. Get amnesia again and forget the whole thing.
00:29:36You ever have amnesia. I ain't had magnesia since I was a kid. Not magnesia. Amnesia. What's that
00:29:48nature spelled sideways. Amnesia is a loss of memory. You don't know who you are or what you're
00:29:55doing. One more of those and you won't know who you are or what you're doing. It's like stepping
00:30:02onto a brand new planet. No responsibilities. What a time. Only can't remember. Why I may have
00:30:12been married. I may have had kids. All in six weeks. What could top that. Sounds like six
00:30:22lost weekends. Amnesia. That's for me. How do you get it. Black market. First you start by getting
00:30:30plastered. Well you're off to a good start. What's next. Then you go out and find yourself a lamppost.
00:30:37It ain't hard to find. There's one on every corner. Then you get about 10 yards away and you got to
00:30:44remember to keep your head down. Missed didn't you. Well it's not so easy when you're out of
00:31:08practice. Yeah I guess there's a neck to it. He made it. What's the matter with him. Magnesia.
00:31:24Hello. This is Desk Sergeant Blake. Third Precinct. Are you Mrs. John Gray. Yes. Third
00:31:43Precinct. Police Department. Mr. Gray has just been brought in. He was in an accident. An accident.
00:31:49He's your husband. You better get over here right away. Is he badly hurt. He ran into a lamppost. Was he
00:31:56driving the car. There was no car. He was walking. Who is he. What's his story. His name's Gray. He's got a
00:32:06bad bruise. Looks like he was talking when he should have been listening. Drunk as the Lord. Riley said he
00:32:11was drinking magnesia. What. And he hit a lamppost. He must have started it. Lamppost only hit back in
00:32:17self-defense. He claims the lamppost pulled a knife on him. His wife's here. Oh she can come in. You better pull
00:32:23yourself together. Your wife's here. Is that your husband madam. Yes. Is he badly hurt. He'll live. Can you
00:32:32identify yourself. I have my passport. But would you mind telling me what for. For the records. Yeah Tom you'd
00:32:42better get a receipt for a valuable package like that. Were you a British subject. Yes but my husband's an American. One
00:32:51of those GI brides. There's a story in this at that. I got a wife. I got amnesia. I was in London during the war. Even
00:33:01had a family they tell me. Did he have amnesia in England. This is the first I've heard of it. Twins. Boy and a girl. You can
00:33:11take him home if you want to. Thank you. Let me out of here. Place is full of cops. Oh Mrs. Gray don't let him go around
00:33:21denting city property. You want to take better care of him. Yes I think I'll be able to take much better care of my
00:33:26husband from now on. That hyper will knock him out. Don't take any phone calls and don't let him see anyone. He has to
00:33:34have complete rest. I'm leaving you in charge. Was there anything in the papers this morning. It was too late for the
00:33:40morning edition. He's lucky it's Sunday. I was worried about that. But Monday's paper comes out this evening. Monday is
00:33:46new Sunday. Strange country. If you need me please call. Thank you.
00:34:10I'm Mr. Are you the lady I've been speaking to on the phone all day. Yes I am. I've got to see Mr. Gray before father gets here. I'm sorry he's asleep. And Dr. Davies said no one. I don't care what Dr. Davies said. I must see him. I'm his fiance.
00:34:41I'm his wife. His wife? Where is he? I'll fix him. Please sir. There's a sick man in the next room. He'll be a darn sight sicker when I get my hands on him. You can't go in there. What are you doing here? She's his wife. That's who she is. Oh then she's the one. The mother of children. Children. The loveliest twins. It's all in the paper. We're disgraced. He's made us the laughing stock of Rochester. The whole world. British bride and G.I.
00:35:09reunited in jail. Mrs. John Gray arrived from England with twins to greet husband in jail. Oh this is awful. He's just a nonscrupulous gangster taking advantage of your inexperience. Please be quiet. You'll waken him. I hope I do. But if I don't when he does wake up you tell him we're through with him. I'll expect his resignation in the morning. Come in. Mrs. Gray the manager told me to move you and the children into Mr. Gray's suite. What?
00:35:40He only gave you the other room temporarily. Come on Lois. Let's get out of this.
00:35:58Good morning. Morning. Morning children. Morning Doctor. How are we doing? He hasn't stirred since you left. He's slept for 28 hours. I'll snap him out of it.
00:36:08Poor fellow. I'm sorry but I can't sympathize with him. Why not? He's got a lot of things any man would envy him for. The children. You. Oh please. Let's leave me out of it. I see. Well what else happened to the poor fellow? Oh everything. He's been asked to resign from the architect's club. The luncheon club. Mr. Evans sent him a paper to sign and several newspaper men called. He's in for some terrible shocks. I'll try to break it to him gently. Thank you.
00:36:38John. John wake up. Come on Johnny. Hey! What's the idea? Snap out of it John. What year? What day is it? It's 11 o'clock Monday morning this year of grace. Oh disgrace. Hey did Lois phone? What happened? Nothing. Now don't worry. Everything's all right. Ms. Evans postponed the wedding. To when? That's up to you.
00:37:08Was she upset? What did her father say? They were very upset you were ill. He said you needn't come back to the office till you're all well and straightened out. I'll never be straightened out again. I see that you are. I'll be right here. Right where? The children and I have moved into your suite. What? What for? There's a shortage of rooms in the hotel. But you'll have to get out. There'll be a scandal. If the newspapers ever link our names I'm ruined. Besides Lois and her father might drop up. They won't.
00:37:35Mr. Evans left this paper for your signature. You to ill health which will keep me away from business for some time I hereby tender. This is a resignation. Well I guess I resign from the family too. Maybe it's just as well if she'd walk out on you like that. Yeah walking out on a guy when he's sick in bed. Count your blessings. You've got your health and two of the loveliest children in the world.
00:38:35Are you going to read, Daddy? Yes, if you give me a chance. Where are you going to read, Daddy? A foreign situation. That's bad.
00:39:05Nobody seems to know. Let's play hide and go seek, Daddy. You're it, Daddy. You're it, Daddy. I'm it, all right. See if I can find us, Daddy. All right, but don't go too far. Give me that broom. Ever see a guy. See a broom? Give me that. Daddy, Daddy. Daddy, Daddy. Hey, hey, what's the matter here?
00:39:34He broke my balloon. Come on, I'll fight the three of you. Me or him. Go on, get out of here, you little mutt. What's going on here? They ganged up on me. Three against one. What's the idea of shoving my kid around? We'll keep him away from my kids. He broke my balloon. He's dusted. He's alive. Little crybaby. Go on, you little brat. Whose kid are you calling a brat? Yours.
00:40:04My old man can lick your old man. Who are you calling an old man, you brat? Come on. What happened? How could you? Well, he broke Johnny's balloon. The big brute hitting a man half his size. Half whose size? Why did you do it?
00:40:33Well, his kid was picking on these kids. And naturally, you had to protect your children. Not naturally at all. A question of fair play. But supposing Johnny and Joyce had been wrong? But they weren't. But they could have been. Couldn't they? No, they couldn't. They're not that kind of kid. Feeling better? Yeah. You know something? You're very soothing.
00:41:01When I'm near you. Why do you say that? You forget me so soon. Well, I didn't mean to. Someday, I'll tell you all the things that have been going through my head. Yes, you must. Right now, I'd like to give it as much rest as I can. Can I put it there? Put what where? My head here.
00:41:30When did I first meet you? It was in Selfridge's department store. You came in to buy a pair of gloves for a lady. You were in uniform and you looked very handsome. For a lady, huh? I was certainly making the army a social success. You told me her hands were my size. I tried them on and you said, keep them. I know no other lady in London.
00:41:52When did we get together? You were waiting for me outside the employee's entrance. You took me to dinner and we went to a cinema. I was really putting on a campaign. We saw each other every night after that until we were married. What was the honeymoon like? We went to Brighton. Three beautiful days. Wonderful balmy nights. It would be my luck to forget weather like that. We were really happy. Ecstatically happy.
00:42:22Were we? Yes. We were happy then. And all the time, I never knew we were having amnesia. Neither did I. I didn't know what I was having. It's strange. It's like being with a total stranger, not a husband. That's the way I feel too. It was like a dream.
00:42:48Are you sure it wasn't a dream? Shh. I think I hear Joyce. Did you hear anything? No. I guess it's no dream. Those kids are real, all right. Until you've had children, you've never really lived. Yeah, but you've never really lived until you've really lived.
00:43:12What a beautiful night. Sort of reminds me of Brighton. Don't start thinking about Brighton again unless I can be alone. Maybe I shouldn't tell you this, but I loved you the first moment I set eyes on you. You did? Don't you believe me? Yes, that's the awful part. I do believe you. Everything you told me about our marriage, our honeymoon, everything. You sure picked one heck of a husband.
00:43:40I've never been sorry.
00:43:46Johnny, you mustn't kiss me. Why not? Not yet. We haven't the right. But we're married, aren't we? Yes, but you don't love me. You were going to marry that Evans girl. Oh, that's all off. Look, we're man and wife. That makes it all right, doesn't it? No. It's only all right if a man and wife love each other.
00:44:08There's not one case in a million.
00:44:12John, I've got to be sure you love me.
00:44:15But didn't I buy you a pair of gloves, take you to the movies on a honeymoon and marry you? But you didn't even know what you were doing.
00:44:23I know what I'm doing now.
00:44:26Johnny, you mustn't kiss me. It doesn't feel right. It does to me.
00:44:30Johnny, please.
00:44:32Why don't you just relax? You'll live longer.
00:44:35Please sit down over there and drink your coffee.
00:44:39No, it'll keep me awake.
00:44:42We've got to adjust our lives. We've got to get acquainted all over again.
00:44:47After all the trouble I went to in London?
00:44:50It'll take time.
00:44:52Time? I've got to devote all my time to starting a new firm. I'm getting up at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning to look for offices.
00:45:00And so, Mrs. Gray, it's time we were getting some sleep.
00:45:09I'm not tired. I'll read a while.
00:45:12You're going to ruin your eyes reading at night.
00:45:15I'll turn on all the lights.
00:45:17But that'll wake the kids. They've had a hard day in the park. They're growing kids and they need their rest. And so do you.
00:45:24Why, I've never known you to be so stubborn before.
00:45:27I'm not stubborn.
00:45:29But I never knew what I was doing before.
00:45:31No, you didn't even know you were marrying me.
00:45:34That's what makes me feel so strange.
00:45:36But you said you loved me.
00:45:38Yes, I did.
00:45:39Then how can you forget your promise?
00:45:41Promise?
00:45:42To love, honor and obey.
00:45:44I love you. I respect you, but...
00:45:46But you won't obey me.
00:45:48Obey you?
00:45:49Yes. I'd like to get some sleep.
00:45:52Well, go ahead. Don't let me stop you.
00:45:54You see? That's what I mean.
00:45:56I'll even obey you.
00:45:58Some fine day?
00:46:00Some fine day. Is that a way for a wife to talk? Some fine day.
00:46:04What's the matter with now?
00:46:06Johnny, it's going to take time.
00:46:09You told me that already.
00:46:11Let's talk this over calmly.
00:46:13Honestly.
00:46:14Seriously.
00:46:15Practically.
00:46:16Reasonably. Oh, John, please be reasonable.
00:46:19Reasonable? I am being reasonable.
00:46:21Look, I'm your husband. I'm the father of our children.
00:46:24You're my wife, aren't you?
00:46:25Yes.
00:46:27Then let's get some sleep.
00:46:35Oh, dear.
00:47:27I'm sorry.
00:47:30I'm sorry.
00:47:38See you later.
00:47:52That's what I thought.
00:47:53That's what I thought.
00:48:12Bob.
00:48:15Bob, wake up.
00:48:17This is vital.
00:48:18What? What's happened?
00:48:19This is an emergency.
00:48:20You've never been anything but an emergency since I've known you.
00:48:23Were you thrown out of your hotel?
00:48:25Worse. I was thrown out of my own bedroom.
00:48:27By whom?
00:48:28By my wife.
00:48:29Your wife?
00:48:30Yes, she is my wife. She convinced me tonight.
00:48:32I bet that didn't take much convincing.
00:48:34Well, she doesn't treat me like a husband.
00:48:36Well, maybe you don't appeal to her.
00:48:38Maybe you're no longer her type.
00:48:39You're crazy. She was madly in love with me.
00:48:41For the first time, she saw me. She said so herself.
00:48:44Oh, but you're not the man you were.
00:48:46You were an entirely different personality when you hit amnesia.
00:48:49That's the man she fell in love with.
00:48:51A soldier.
00:48:52A gay, charming fellow with nothing on his mind but love.
00:48:55That's all I had on my mind tonight.
00:48:57Well, it'll take time.
00:48:59She has a right to see if she loves this other personality.
00:49:03This new character who struts around in John Gray's body.
00:49:06You make me sound like a second-hand car.
00:49:08And she has the right to trade you in.
00:49:10Trade me in?
00:49:11The way I feel now, she couldn't get a good deal from me under the table.
00:49:14It's hard to be worthy of a girl like Amy.
00:49:17I'm past being worthy.
00:49:18She's the mother of my children. Why do you think I married her?
00:49:21I'm wondering why she married you.
00:49:23She's a wonderful girl.
00:49:26Oh, you like her, huh?
00:49:28Mm-hmm.
00:49:29She's a wonderful girl.
00:49:31You said that.
00:49:32Now look, Bob, I'm asking you to think of something for me, not you.
00:49:35I am thinking of you.
00:49:37But if she doesn't love you, why don't you leave her alone?
00:49:39Aren't you overlooking a few small items?
00:49:42What about our twins?
00:49:44Well, if she decides not to stick, you could each take one.
00:49:49Not on your wife.
00:49:50She's not going to break up the set.
00:49:57I'm so sorry I kept you waiting, but I dressed as quickly as I could.
00:50:00Mrs. Osgood, my director, asked me to bring you to our office.
00:50:03Would you mind coming along?
00:50:05Of course.
00:50:06Is anything wrong? Something the matter?
00:50:08Well, I'm sure I wouldn't know.
00:50:09But I have my station wagon. Shall we drive down and see?
00:50:12Of course.
00:50:14Now then, miss, since we know this passport was issued to Mrs. John Gray,
00:50:19nay, Tilly Loomis, would you mind telling us who you are?
00:50:23I'm Amy Atkins.
00:50:26We lived together, Tilly and I.
00:50:28And yet you never saw her husband.
00:50:31During the Blitz, I was in the south of England.
00:50:33When the children were evacuated from London, we organized schools for them.
00:50:37I taught in one of those schools for three years.
00:50:41Then why were you so sure this particular man was the father of her children?
00:50:45Oh, I'm sure he's the right man.
00:50:47Perfectly ridiculous.
00:50:48Do you realize that you have ruined an innocent man
00:50:51and brought scandal to one of our best families?
00:50:54But I'm sure, so sure.
00:50:56If I weren't, it would be awful.
00:50:58The name John Gray in America is almost as common as John Bull in England.
00:51:04Yes, I know.
00:51:06And the two Rochesters in America.
00:51:08You admit forging a passport, making illegal entry.
00:51:12Unfortunately, you have committed a crime.
00:51:14And since you're still a British subject,
00:51:17you will be deported to your country where your case will be handled.
00:51:20You will return the two children in question to the Red Cross in London.
00:51:24Is that clear?
00:51:26Yes.
00:51:27Perfectly.
00:51:32Perfectly clear.
00:51:34Would you please tell Mr. Gray we've gone?
00:51:36Yes, Mrs. Gray. Are you leaving us?
00:51:38Yes.
00:51:39When is Daddy coming?
00:51:41Later, darling.
00:51:42Any forwarding address?
00:51:43No, no, none.
00:51:44Have a pleasant trip.
00:51:46Thanks.
00:51:47You'll be very comfortable at the York Hotel.
00:51:49And it's only for one night, anyway.
00:51:51Mrs. Gray?
00:51:52Yes?
00:51:53Mrs. Gray, there's a letter for you.
00:51:55A letter?
00:51:58It's from Tubbs.
00:52:03Good old Tubbs.
00:52:04What is it?
00:52:05Have you ever seen that man before?
00:52:07Well, yes, of course.
00:52:09That, Mrs. Jenkins, is the Mr. John Gray in question.
00:52:12Oh, Tilly.
00:52:13She was such a sweet girl.
00:52:15This was taken on their wedding day.
00:52:18He was one of the twins when they were six months old.
00:52:21I should say he was a very good man.
00:52:24He was a very good man.
00:52:26He was a very good man.
00:52:28He was a very good man.
00:52:30He was a very good man.
00:52:32I should say that sort of changes things, shouldn't you, Mrs. Jenkins?
00:52:35We'd better go down to headquarters and find out.
00:52:38But these are his children.
00:52:39These pictures are proof.
00:52:41They'll be returned to him.
00:52:42But your status is still the same.
00:52:44Illegal entry, you know.
00:52:46Yes.
00:52:47No.
00:52:49But it was so worthwhile.
00:52:51I knew John couldn't be guilty of a thing like that.
00:52:54It was a great shock to me.
00:52:56You know, I pride myself on my judgment of men.
00:52:59If he was guilty, it would have been the first time I've ever been wrong about a man.
00:53:03Now, Father, I think I knew him better than you did.
00:53:05After all, I was engaged to him.
00:53:07He should be here any minute.
00:53:08It's going to be a little embarrassing after the way we tossed him out without giving him a chance to explain.
00:53:12Forget it.
00:53:13That's the past.
00:53:14And stop walking up and down.
00:53:15I feel as if I'm at a tennis match.
00:53:17All right.
00:53:18But I hate to start off with him in the driver's seat.
00:53:20Well, maybe you'll have to content yourself with being a backseat driver like your mother.
00:53:25Yes?
00:53:26Mr. Gray is here.
00:53:27Oh, yes.
00:53:28Let him right in.
00:53:30Hello, John.
00:53:31Come in.
00:53:32Hello, John.
00:53:33Hello, Lois.
00:53:35Sit down, son.
00:53:39You can't imagine why I've sent for you.
00:53:41No, I can't.
00:53:43We owe you an apology.
00:53:44Let me tell it, Lois.
00:53:46As a man of over 50 years, I speak from long experience and observation.
00:53:51I've never gone wrong in my judgment of men.
00:53:53I judge you as the type of man I wanted in my family.
00:53:56And I'm glad to say that my judgment is vindicated.
00:53:58Well, that's fine.
00:54:00But what father's going to say when he gets around to it
00:54:03is that the case of that adventurous has been investigated.
00:54:06Adventurous?
00:54:07What adventurous?
00:54:08That English woman.
00:54:09A complete imposter.
00:54:11She saw a good thing try to kick you into marriage in the support of her children.
00:54:15Just a minute.
00:54:16You're being ridiculous.
00:54:17I have the proof.
00:54:21A signed statement.
00:54:22She confesses to forging a passport.
00:54:24Forging is another woman.
00:54:25She's being deported.
00:54:26Deported?
00:54:27Father, I wish you'd let me speak with John alone.
00:54:30Very well.
00:54:31I've got work to do.
00:54:32Take her in your office, John, my boy.
00:54:42John, you may kiss her.
00:54:46Thanks.
00:54:48She certainly fooled me.
00:54:50Darling, you're so naive.
00:54:51Any pretty woman could fool you.
00:54:53Yeah, I guess so.
00:54:55Now we can pick up where we left off.
00:54:57We can thumb our noses at everyone who laughed at me
00:54:59and get married after all.
00:55:04Yes, of course.
00:55:06Unless you've changed your mind.
00:55:08Who, me?
00:55:09Darling, I was sure you hadn't changed.
00:55:12Look, Lois, I've got to call the hotel.
00:55:14Go ahead.
00:55:15No, not here.
00:55:17I don't want to use this phone.
00:55:19Why not, silly?
00:55:20It's going to be your office again.
00:55:23Is it?
00:55:25John, are you by any chance in love with that girl?
00:55:29Are you trying to put ideas in my head?
00:55:31Well, then don't be so vague.
00:55:32Don't you want to marry me?
00:55:35Sure.
00:55:36Then let's get married right away, tomorrow.
00:55:38We can get ready.
00:55:39Yeah.
00:55:40No elaborate wedding this time.
00:55:41Just the family and a few friends.
00:55:42Yeah, a few friends.
00:55:43Then it's all settled.
00:55:55Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Gray.
00:55:57I'm just returning your children, then I'll go.
00:55:59My children?
00:56:00Yes, the Red Cross has checked them.
00:56:02Checked them?
00:56:03Poor darling, they're asleep.
00:56:05Where shall I put them?
00:56:07On the daybed.
00:56:08But I thought the Red Cross said...
00:56:10We have definite proof now that they are your children.
00:56:25Good night.
00:56:46Good night and good luck, Mr. Gray.
00:56:48They're splendid children.
00:56:50Good night.
00:56:55Good night.
00:57:15Daddy?
00:57:17Don't let anybody tell you the difference.
00:57:20Have you been asleep, Daddy?
00:57:22Yes, but I'm awake now.
00:57:25Good night.
00:57:56Bob.
00:57:58Hey, Bob, wake up.
00:57:59Wake up, you've got to help me.
00:58:01Can't you get into enough trouble during the day?
00:58:03Do you have to wake me up every night?
00:58:05Well, do you think I like doing this?
00:58:07But honest, Bob, it's...
00:58:08If you say an emergency, I'll strangle you.
00:58:11And tomorrow I'm getting you another doctor.
00:58:13Look, that cinches it.
00:58:14I was married, all right.
00:58:16Married?
00:58:17Who's this wife?
00:58:18She isn't yours.
00:58:19Yes, but that's another wife.
00:58:21She's my wife.
00:58:22Who's this wife?
00:58:23She isn't yours.
00:58:24Yes, but that's another wife.
00:58:26How many wives do you want?
00:58:27You're marrying Lois tomorrow.
00:58:28I know.
00:58:29Well, that'll make three.
00:58:30Even with inflation, the government only allows one wife to a customer.
00:58:33Don't worry about it.
00:58:34It's simple.
00:58:35What's simple?
00:58:36Read that.
00:58:37I'm a widower.
00:58:38But I thought you said the other night you were convinced Amy was your wife.
00:58:40Yes, but I found out today she isn't.
00:58:42Well, what was she, just an innocent bystander?
00:58:45No, she wanted to bring my kids over to me.
00:58:48Oh, I see.
00:58:50She's a great girl.
00:58:51Well, they're deporting her.
00:58:52I wouldn't have believed it myself until I saw her statement at the Red Cross.
00:58:55I've got to help her.
00:58:56You've got to help her.
00:58:57Oh, we've got to help her.
00:58:59Can't you square it through Evans?
00:59:00Yeah, that's a fine favor to ask your future father-in-law.
00:59:03You'll have to tell Lois.
00:59:05You can't say you got those two kids through a mail-order house.
00:59:07What'll I do?
00:59:08I don't want to see her deported.
00:59:11She won't leave.
00:59:12She won't?
00:59:13No, because if I have to, I'll marry her myself.
00:59:16What?
00:59:18Oh, no.
00:59:19I couldn't let you sacrifice yourself like that for me.
00:59:22That won't be a sacrifice.
00:59:23It'll be a pleasure.
00:59:24What?
00:59:26Amy's a wonderful girl.
00:59:27And I happen to think enough of her to marry her, if she'll have me.
00:59:30Why, you hypocrite.
00:59:32Trying to steal my wife.
00:59:34Advising me, and all the time you're in love with her yourself.
00:59:38You couldn't fall in love with Lois.
00:59:40Oh, no.
00:59:41She isn't good enough for you.
00:59:42You have to fall in love with my wife.
00:59:44The mother of my children.
00:59:46The only woman I ever loved.
00:59:48You, my best friend.
00:59:50My doctor.
00:59:51Well, this is the end.
00:59:52I'm through with you.
00:59:54You can get yourself another patient.
01:00:02What a spot.
01:00:04How can I pull a couple of kids on a girl who thinks she's marrying a bachelor?
01:00:08Especially Lois.
01:00:09She always wants to do everything herself.
01:00:12Well, I'll have to tell her.
01:00:14Lois, they're my children.
01:00:16I only found it out myself last night.
01:00:19But she's liable to say, well, if they're yours, John, I'll love them and I'll bring them up.
01:00:24Those twins may grow up to be president.
01:00:27And I can't run out on her again.
01:00:29I'll have to marry her.
01:00:31But how can I when I love Amy?
01:00:33And if I don't hurry up, that sneak bob is going to get her.
01:00:36Can't let that happen.
01:00:37She's too good for me.
01:00:39Well, I suppose she's too good for me, too.
01:00:42But she's used to me.
01:00:48Hey, you.
01:00:50Huh?
01:00:51Walking in your sleep?
01:00:53No, officer.
01:00:54I was just taking my constitutional.
01:00:56Don't you know what ain't constitutional?
01:00:58To be walking around the streets in your long drawers?
01:01:00Well, I had to get out of bed in a hurry.
01:01:02Huh?
01:01:03I didn't have time to dress.
01:01:04These are pajamas.
01:01:06Well, if they're pajamas, you ought to be in bed.
01:01:09Not necessarily.
01:01:10I'm wearing a raincoat, but it's not raining.
01:01:12Oh, got your kidding pants on, huh?
01:01:14No, they're pajamas.
01:01:16You look very familiar to me.
01:01:19Ain't I seen you someplace before?
01:01:22Oh, it's you.
01:01:23You're gray.
01:01:25I wouldn't be surprised if I am with all the trouble I've had lately.
01:01:29I must have turned gray overnight.
01:01:31Huh?
01:01:32I wouldn't bat an eye if you told me I was white.
01:01:34Well, get off the streets and go to bed or your name will be mud.
01:01:37It's no use.
01:01:38I can't sleep.
01:01:39I've got insomnia.
01:01:40You've got more high-class diseases.
01:01:43The last time I seen you, you had amnesia.
01:01:48Officer, I wouldn't admit this to everybody,
01:01:51but I not only don't know who I am, I don't know who you are.
01:01:56What, again?
01:01:57Go on, scram.
01:01:58Where?
01:01:59Where will I scram to?
01:02:09Hello, this is Mac.
01:02:10Ask her if she's got a friend.
01:02:12Get me to City Hospital.
01:02:32I can't look at him, sir.
01:02:40Where's John?
01:02:41Oh, he'll be here soon.
01:02:43Well, I hope he's more punctual at the office.
01:02:56Well, where is he?
01:02:57We phoned every police station.
01:02:59Bob's contacting the hospital.
01:03:01Well, I hope you're satisfied.
01:03:05Oh, Judge Henderson.
01:03:07Oh, Lois, my dear, you look lovely.
01:03:09Good morning, Frank.
01:03:10Good morning, Humphrey.
01:03:11This is a happy day.
01:03:12Thank you, Judge.
01:03:13You see, Lois, it was to be.
01:03:15Won't you step inside and join the guests?
01:03:18Where's the lucky bridegroom?
01:03:19Oh, he's on his way.
01:03:20Well, Frank, we've waited a long time for this occasion.
01:03:24Yes, we have, Humphrey.
01:03:26And we're still waiting.
01:03:28What are we going to do now?
01:03:29They're all here, even the judge.
01:03:31Where is that lunatic?
01:03:32I hope he hasn't had an accident.
01:03:34An accident's too good for him.
01:03:36I've located him.
01:03:37He's on the way.
01:03:38They're bringing him over.
01:03:39Who is?
01:03:40Where?
01:03:41City Hospital.
01:03:42The hospital?
01:03:43What happened?
01:03:44It's just a temporary lapse.
01:03:45Lapse of what?
01:03:46Memory.
01:03:47Amnesia.
01:03:48What, again?
01:03:49Oh, I'm sure he'll snap out of it.
01:03:50He did before.
01:03:51That's the end.
01:03:52He can't be out of his mind.
01:03:53He never had one.
01:03:54John has a good mind.
01:03:55Well, then why is he always going out of it?
01:03:56Don't shout at me.
01:03:57You're his best man.
01:03:58Who else can I shout at?
01:03:59Father, control yourself.
01:04:00Control myself?
01:04:01Please.
01:04:02I advise you to control yourself, too, Lois.
01:04:03That's the funniest medical advice I ever heard.
01:04:05My wedding at noon, my house full of guests,
01:04:06the groom hasn't shown up, and when he does,
01:04:08you'll think he's somebody else.
01:04:12There's the ambulance now.
01:04:13Here comes the groom.
01:04:15A fine way to go to your wedding.
01:04:17When my time comes, that's the way I want to go.
01:04:22Come in.
01:04:23Hey, what's going on here?
01:04:25A wedding.
01:04:26Anyone I know?
01:04:27Your coach, sir?
01:04:28I'm Dr. Davis.
01:04:29You can leave him in my charge.
01:04:30Right, doctor.
01:04:31Hey, don't leave me alone in a strange place.
01:04:33John, don't you know me?
01:04:35Have we met before?
01:04:36Don't you know what day this is?
01:04:38Friday.
01:04:39I had fish for breakfast.
01:04:40Don't you know what Friday?
01:04:42Well, I know it isn't good Friday.
01:04:44Nothing good's happened to me since it started.
01:04:46My man's mad.
01:04:47I've heard him.
01:04:48Don't you remember we're to be married today?
01:04:51Are you looking at me?
01:04:52Of course she's looking at you.
01:04:53You're the groom.
01:04:54Who, me?
01:04:55Yes, you.
01:04:56Well, I'll do anything to oblige, but I
01:04:58can't get married in these.
01:04:59I brought your clothes.
01:05:00Oh, you did?
01:05:01They're in here.
01:05:02Snap into them.
01:05:20Hello, Amy?
01:05:22Amy?
01:05:23Amy?
01:05:24Can't you say anything else but Amy?
01:05:26You've got to be careful.
01:05:27Where are you?
01:05:29Isn't a party room for ladies?
01:05:31Maybe, but not this one.
01:05:32Darling, I'm so glad I found you.
01:05:34The Red Cross is picking me up in a little while.
01:05:37I'm catching the afternoon train.
01:05:38Darling, you can't do that to me.
01:05:40Or the children.
01:05:42I know they're not yours.
01:05:43They're mine, but what's mine's yours.
01:05:45No, Johnny, I can't.
01:05:47I have no other choice.
01:05:48Amy, wait.
01:05:49Please.
01:05:50No, no, you mustn't.
01:05:52Amy, wait there for me.
01:05:53Don't leave the hotel.
01:05:55Goodbye, Johnny.
01:05:58Cheerio.
01:05:59Amy, wait there for me.
01:06:01Hurry up, John, will you?
01:06:03Mr. Evans, the police are outside.
01:06:05The police?
01:06:06What for?
01:06:07The motorcycle escort for the bridal couple, sir.
01:06:09Good.
01:06:10That is nice of the chief.
01:06:11Something tells me we're going to need a police escort.
01:06:14All right, let's go.
01:06:16Oh, John, you're not dressed.
01:06:18Well, the invitation said informal.
01:06:20That settles it.
01:06:21Get him out of here.
01:06:22Who, me?
01:06:23You're too irresponsible and crazy to marry anybody.
01:06:25You mean you're not going to marry him?
01:06:26I most certainly am not.
01:06:28Well, who asked you to?
01:06:29Let me handle him.
01:06:30Let you handle him.
01:06:31Get out.
01:06:32Get out before I kick you out.
01:06:34Oh, no.
01:06:35You sent for me.
01:06:36I didn't send for you.
01:06:49The chief and Evans are pals.
01:06:51It's Evans' daughter.
01:06:52We only go to the airport.
01:06:58Let's go.
