Two fast-talking insurance salesmen meet Mary, who is running away from her wealthy mother, and they agree to help her run a hotel that she owns. When they find out that the hotel is run down and nearly abandoned, they launch a phony PR campaign that presents the hotel as a resort favored by the rich. Their advertising succeeds too well, and many complications soon arise. —Snow Leopard

00:02:08Insurance, eh?
00:02:09Yes.
00:02:10This is Mr. Boswell.
00:02:11Mr. Boswell, shake hands with Mr. Policeman.
00:02:13I'm pleased to meet you.
00:02:14And this is Mr. Gansey.
00:02:15Mr. Gansey, shake hands with Mr. Policeman.
00:02:17I'm pleased to meet you, sir.
00:02:18I'm pleased to meet you.
00:02:19Now, here's a policy that offers triple protection
00:02:22against bruises, earthquakes, and relatives.
00:02:24Have you ever stopped to realize that old age
00:02:26is creeping up on you?
00:02:27My dear man, you owe it to your wife.
00:02:29I haven't got a wife.
00:02:30We'll get you one.
00:02:31Yes.
00:02:32Now, I would like to ask you a few questions.
00:02:34How's your liver?
00:02:35What?
00:02:36Now, don't tell me you haven't got a liver.
00:02:37But I don't need any insurance.
00:02:39You are just the type that does need insurance.
00:02:41Why, do you realize that since 1910,
00:02:44they have discovered 52 new ways of dying?
00:02:46Oh.
00:02:47And you don't look well.
00:02:49Yes.
00:02:50Why, uh, uh, people are dying this year
00:02:52that have never died before.
00:02:53Well, what kind of insurance do you do?
00:02:55Anytime.
00:02:56Now, answer me.
00:02:57Answer me.
00:02:58In the morning when you get up,
00:02:59do you sort of have a nimpy feeling in here?
00:03:01Uh, come to think of it, I believe I do.
00:03:03Just as I thought.
00:03:04Gallstone.
00:03:13Ah, another prospect.
00:03:15And what a prospect.
00:03:18Hey, give her sales talk number seven
00:03:22and don't come back without a policy.
00:03:24Now, then, where were we?
00:03:25Oh, yes, around the gallstone area.
00:03:27Why, man, do you realize that you've got enough gallstones
00:03:29to start a quarry?
00:03:33Hello.
00:03:34Hello.
00:03:35Are, um, are we holding you up?
00:03:38Yes, and I'm awfully angry about it.
00:03:41Ah.
00:03:42What's your name?
00:03:44Mary.
00:03:45Mary Marsh.
00:03:46Mary?
00:03:47Gee, that's a swell name.
00:03:50My name is Wilbur.
00:03:52I don't mind.
00:03:56Now, uh, let's see your tongue.
00:03:59Say ah.
00:04:00Ah, just as I thought.
00:04:03You reached me just in time.
00:04:05Has it got a coat on it?
00:04:07Not only a coat, but a vest and a pair of pants.
00:04:11You know, Mary, you're the kind of a girl that I could...
00:04:16Hey, number seven.
00:04:22Have you ever stopped to realize that old age
00:04:24is creeping up on you?
00:04:26Have you ever stopped to realize that old age
00:04:28is creeping up on you?
00:04:30What are you talking about?
00:04:31Protection.
00:04:32That's what you need.
00:04:33Throughout your declining years,
00:04:34you will need to be provided for,
00:04:36and I am here to offer you that protection.
00:04:39Well, that's awfully nice of you,
00:04:41and I think you're...
00:04:43Well, you'll have to let me think it over for a while.
00:04:46Oh, that is the trouble with America today.
00:04:49Procrastinate...
00:04:51Procrast...
00:04:52Why give it up?
00:04:53Accept my proposition now
00:04:55and know the value of a steady income
00:04:57and the happiness of a contented family.
00:05:00Well, I just met you,
00:05:02and I think I could like you an awful lot,
00:05:04and I think we could be awfully happy together,
00:05:07and, well, I might accept your proposal,
00:05:09but, well, you'd have to ask Mother anyway.
00:05:15Now that I've signed this policy,
00:05:17suppose I got double pneumonia.
00:05:19Oh, then you would be lucky.
00:05:21Lucky?
00:05:22Certainly, because then you'll get a great bargain.
00:05:25Instead of dealing with you in the singular,
00:05:28we pay you off in the plural.
00:05:31Oh, I see.
00:05:34Good luck. You'll need it.
00:05:36I'm certainly glad I met you, fellas.
00:05:40Mary, I want you to meet my partner,
00:05:43Mr. J. Addington Gansey.
00:05:45This is Mary Marsh.
00:05:46How do you do?
00:05:47Fidget the digit, honey, fidget the digit.
00:05:49You know, I love the name of Marsh.
00:05:51It's so mellow.
00:05:52Has, uh, has my partner been telling you
00:05:54about our wonderful insurance?
00:05:55Oh, is that what he was talking about?
00:05:58Well, not exactly.
00:06:00You see, I, uh...
00:06:02Tell us something about yourself, Mary.
00:06:04Well, I'm running away from home.
00:06:06No!
00:06:07Yes.
00:06:08You see, it's like this.
00:06:09My mother made millions out of oil.
00:06:11Oh, tell me about it, child.
00:06:14Tell me about it.
00:06:15But she lost most of it.
00:06:16Tell him about it, child.
00:06:17Tell him about it.
00:06:18But why are you running away?
00:06:20Oh, because my mother wants me to marry
00:06:22our attorney, John Blackwell.
00:06:24You did right, Mary.
00:06:26But where are you running to?
00:06:28To my hotel.
00:06:29Oh, your hotel!
00:06:31Oh, your hotel.
00:06:32Yes, the Riftzilla Riviera at Floralhurst.
00:06:35Now, my plan is to go down there
00:06:37and operate it myself, make it a success,
00:06:39and then I can be independent.
00:06:41And you're perfectly right.
00:06:42All you need is a couple of good men like us
00:06:45to help you out.
00:06:46And are we good men?
00:06:47We are now in the hotel business.
00:06:50Gee, that's grand.
00:06:51Boy, that's what I call exhilarating.
00:06:54What?
00:06:55Exhilarating.
00:06:56Exhilarating.
00:06:57I'll have to look that up.
00:06:59Exhilarating.
00:07:01Let's be off.
00:07:02Wait a minute.
00:07:03You boys know anything about hotels?
00:07:05Do we know anything about hotels?
00:07:08Child, there are several hotels looking for us
00:07:10right this very minute.
00:07:18What's the matter?
00:07:19You out of gas?
00:07:20No.
00:07:21This is a hotel.
00:07:23Pretty, isn't it?
00:07:25Showplace, I call it.
00:07:26Showplace.
00:07:27John Blackwell certainly was lying.
00:07:29I think it's a shame the way he left this hotel run down.
00:07:32Yeah, it's run down all right.
00:07:34You know, it's supposed to be early Victorian.
00:07:37Well, it's supposed to be early Victorian.
00:07:40Well, it's supposed to be early Victorian.
00:07:42Well, it's supposed to be early Victorian.
00:07:44Well, it's supposed to be early Victorian.
00:07:47Very early.
00:07:48Too early.
00:07:49Mother said that all the big bugs used to live there.
00:07:52They're probably still here.
00:07:54Let's look around.
00:08:16I'll get it.
00:08:33This looks like the place that fellow King Tut was buried.
00:08:37Buried?
00:08:38Looks more like the place where he was born.
00:08:42Where did you say you got this hotel?
00:08:44My uncle gave it to me.
00:08:47Honey, you've been robbed.
00:08:50Robbed is right.
00:08:53Oh, come on, Addington.
00:08:55Let's look around.
00:08:56We might be able to put it over.
00:08:59It would be easier to push it over.
00:09:06Look!
00:09:08What's that?
00:09:10Is it a mummy?
00:09:12No, it's Father Time's grandfather.
00:09:19Boy!
00:09:20Boy!
00:09:21Come, come, my good man.
00:09:23Wait, wait.
00:09:24Let's see who's registered here.
00:09:27General Grant.
00:09:29Lydia Pinkham.
00:09:30Buffalo Bill.
00:09:32Quite a cast.
00:09:33Quite a cast.
00:09:34Do you think they're still here?
00:09:36They are if they left a call with him.
00:09:38Ah, the morning paper.
00:09:47Oh, boy.
00:09:48Wait till they hear what Dewey did at Manila Bay.
00:09:51You'd better wake him, the old man.
00:09:53He may be dead.
00:09:54Boy, boy, this is becoming irksome.
00:09:56Come, come.
00:09:57Come on, lunch.
00:09:58Hey.
00:09:59Lunch?
00:10:00Kansas City, all out.
00:10:06Lad, this young lady here has placed us
00:10:09in full charge of the Hotel Richter River,
00:10:12and we intend to place it where it belongs.
00:10:14Now, our first innovation is to be the inauguration
00:10:19of the eight-hour day.
00:10:20Eight hours in the morning and eight hours in the afternoon.
00:10:23Well, that don't help me any.
00:10:26I'm the night man.
00:10:36I'm the night man.
00:11:07Gee, I'm scared.
00:11:09That's all right, little one.
00:11:10I'm here.
00:11:11Who's our guest?
00:11:13Why, he ain't no guest.
00:11:15He's the house detective.
00:11:17I'm afraid the thing is a bust.
00:11:19Come on, let's sign off.
00:11:20Oh, boys, we've got to think of something.
00:11:22Gee, it would be wonderful if we could
00:11:24do something with this hotel.
00:11:26Wonderful?
00:11:27It would be miraculous.
00:11:29It would make a swell fire.
00:11:36Wait a minute.
00:11:37I've just given birth to an idea.
00:11:39My, how you must have suffered.
00:11:41Listen.
00:11:44Now, listen to knowledge.
00:11:45What this hotel needs is publicity.
00:11:47I'll send a story to all the leading newspapers
00:11:50saying the society has adopted the hotel as a fad.
00:11:53In two weeks' time, this old birdcage will be on the map.
00:11:56Now, top that one if you care.
00:12:00Now, you two just go on back there, sit down, and relax.
00:12:03And I'll telephone the good news to the newspapers.
00:12:15That's the idea.
00:12:16Just relax.
00:12:17Hello, Central.
00:12:19Sorry to disturb you.
00:12:21Connect me with the editor of the New York Examiner.
00:12:24A chair, son, so that I may be able to sit and think.
00:12:29Hello.
00:12:30Editor of the New York Examiner?
00:12:32This is Gansey speaking.
00:12:34Gansey.
00:12:35Of Gansey, Gansey, and Gansey.
00:12:38Operators of the world's greatest hotels.
00:12:41We have recently taken over the Hotel Ritz-de-La-Riviera
00:12:44at Floralhurst.
00:12:46And we are making it the mecca of society.
00:12:49Yes.
00:12:50Why, at this very moment, one of the world's greatest painters
00:12:54is busy redecorating.
00:12:58We have installed the safest safe in the world.
00:13:01Yes, yes.
00:13:02So that society may come here and feel that their jewels
00:13:05will be absolutely safe.
00:13:07Yes.
00:13:08Why, our register already carries some of the world's
00:13:11most prominent names.
00:13:13And one man is here with his wife.
00:13:16Yes.
00:13:17Mm-hmm.
00:13:18Yes, I know you will.
00:13:19Yes, I...
00:13:21Well, boy, how's that?
00:13:23That's telling them.
00:13:24Boy, I never fall down on anything.
00:13:32Society's new fad.
00:13:35The Hotel Ritz-de-La...
00:13:37Whoa!
00:13:40The Rendezvous of wealth and fashion.
00:13:43Rendezvous.
00:13:44I don't believe it.
00:13:46The Rendezvous...
00:13:49The Hope Pearls.
00:13:51Well, it looks as if Mary were getting somewhere,
00:13:54even if she did run away.
00:13:56That story is absurd.
00:13:58As your attorney, I can't thank you enough.
00:14:00As your attorney, I can't sanction this crazy business.
00:14:03You can't sanction wealth and fashion flocking to the Ritz.
00:14:05Oh, nonsense.
00:14:07Mary has probably fallen into the hands of some very
00:14:09clever confidence men.
00:14:10And she'll doubtless wind up losing her hotel.
00:14:13Listen, anything that happens to that hotel
00:14:15will be an improvement.
00:14:16Yes?
00:14:17Well, what about something that may happen to Mary?
00:14:23I never thought of that.
00:14:25No.
00:14:26Well, I haven't thought about anything but Mary.
00:14:29You know how much I love her.
00:14:31Well, I ought to have told me often enough.
00:14:34What are your plans?
00:14:36I'll go there at once, throw those men out,
00:14:38and bring Mary home to where she belongs.
00:14:40You're optimistic.
00:14:41You don't know me, Ray.
00:14:42Now, don't worry.
00:14:44I'll settle this.
00:14:45That is, if you'll back me up.
00:14:47Back you up?
00:14:48I'll be right behind you.
00:14:50In fact, I'll go along with you.
00:14:54Well, all right.
00:14:58I'll meet you here at 12.
00:15:05Can you imagine?
00:15:07I got it all set to marry the girl,
00:15:09take over the property, and a couple of half smart guys
00:15:12come along and mess up my plans.
00:15:13You ain't afraid of them, are you?
00:15:15No.
00:15:16I'm just apprehensive.
00:15:18If they find out about our hideaway in the hotel
00:15:21basement, we're lost.
00:15:22Hey, let's get down there and take them for a ride.
00:15:25Or put them on the spot.
00:15:27Well, my motto is give them the pineapple.
00:15:29It never fails.
00:15:31All right, Mac.
00:15:33You get down there as quickly as you can.
00:15:35But don't do any shooting until you see me.
00:15:37All right.
00:15:51This looks like pie for us, boys.
00:15:53Now, remember, you're going to mix with the best people
00:15:56so watch your step.
00:15:58And the first guy that says ain't gets a sock in the nose.
00:16:02But I'm going to send the duchess down
00:16:04to try and wiggle the combination out of those two
00:16:06birds that are running the joint.
00:16:09Now, listen, Spagoni.
00:16:11You go on down ahead and look the joint over.
00:16:13We'll meet you there.
00:16:14Sure, Chief.
00:16:19The duchess is one of the cleverest wives I ever had.
00:16:23Hello?
00:16:25Oh, how are you, Duke?
00:16:28Yes, I was just reading the story.
00:16:30Rather expected your call.
00:16:33Sounds great.
00:16:35OK, I'll go down first and meet you there.
00:16:39Right.
00:16:40Goodbye.
00:16:42OK, I'll go down first and meet you there.
00:16:45Right.
00:16:46Goodbye.
00:17:11Were you ringing?
00:17:28No, I was tolling.
00:17:29I thought you were dead.
00:17:31Take a glass of water to room 16.
00:17:34To drink?
00:17:35No, the lady wants to make a high dive.
00:17:39Say, you know I'm not as big a fool as I used to be.
00:17:43Have you been dieting?
00:17:45I've been.
00:17:48This is the Hotel Ritz de la Riviera.
00:17:50Yes, just a moment.
00:17:52Oh, Mr. Gansey.
00:17:53Yes, Mr. Boswell?
00:17:54A gentleman in Cincinnati wants to know
00:17:56if the fish are biting.
00:17:57If they are, they're biting each other.
00:17:59They're hungry.
00:18:00No, they're not hungry.
00:18:01Yes?
00:18:03How are you, Sleuth?
00:18:05That young fellow's a human dynamo.
00:18:07Yes.
00:18:08Everything he has on is charged.
00:18:13You know, things ain't so quiet around here no more.
00:18:16I may decide to quit.
00:18:18In that case, we require two weeks' written notice.
00:18:20Why, I can't write.
00:18:22Then that settles that.
00:18:24Now, go upstairs and count the chambermaids
00:18:27and report to me every now and then.
00:18:30Every now and then?
00:18:31Every now and then.
00:18:34Every now and then.
00:18:40Look, more telegrams.
00:18:42Gosh, if this keeps up, we'll have to build
00:18:44an annex to this hotel.
00:18:47Gee, it's a long time since I've seen you.
00:18:50Yeah?
00:18:51Almost an hour.
00:18:53And you still like me?
00:18:55More than ever.
00:18:57More than ever, body?
00:19:00More than any body.
00:19:02Now, let's don't go into that.
00:19:03Here, here, read some telegrams.
00:19:06Here's one from Harold Van Asterbilt.
00:19:08He wants two rooms and four beds.
00:19:11The man's a channel swimmer.
00:19:17Listen to this one.
00:19:18Reserved wedding suite for myself and friend.
00:19:21Also room for the bride.
00:19:23That's what I call breaking them in.
00:19:30Ah, customers.
00:19:33Be alert, lad.
00:19:34Be alert.
00:19:40Greetings.
00:19:41Greetings.
00:19:42And salutations.
00:19:43How you do, gentlemen.
00:19:45Have you the reservation?
00:19:47Yes, I have.
00:19:48I have.
00:19:49I have.
00:19:50I have.
00:19:51Gentlemen, have you the reservation for the Duchess Bessie Vanessie?
00:19:56Why, you're the kind we throw them out for.
00:19:58Will you register, Bessie?
00:20:00Ah, you are so kind.
00:20:05How do you spell Bessie?
00:20:06Yes.
00:20:09I'm sorry.
00:20:10Pardon.
00:20:11You see, your American English, it is so different.
00:20:14Yeah, so's our scotch.
00:20:16What kind of room would you like, Duchess?
00:20:18What kind of room would you like?
00:20:20A room in which I can amuse and cogitate.
00:20:23Suppose I give you one where you can see as a robot.
00:20:27You mean to tell me you'll never cogitate?
00:20:29Not while I'm on duty, madam.
00:20:31Not while I'm on duty.
00:20:32Look that word up, will you?
00:20:34Cogitate.
00:20:36I-J-K.
00:20:38Codge, codge, codge.
00:20:40Codge.
00:20:41Ah, would you like a room with or without?
00:20:44I will leave everything to you.
00:20:47She's going to leave it all.
00:20:51He's my partner.
00:20:52You'll have to give me half.
00:20:53Son, son, can't you see that we're in conference?
00:20:56Return to your cogitating.
00:20:58I hate that word.
00:21:00Cogitate.
00:21:01Is this the wonderful safe I have read so much about?
00:21:05Yes, yes.
00:21:06Would you care to look it over?
00:21:07Oh, that would be very, very interesting.
00:21:10Well, step this way, madam.
00:21:11Step this way.
00:21:14There you are.
00:21:15It's a 1932 model.
00:21:17Seven bearing crankshaft.
00:21:19No tin there.
00:21:21Hydraulic brakes, all wool in the yard wire.
00:21:24Is it burglar proof?
00:21:27It is so far.
00:21:28A very fine safe, indeed.
00:21:30I shall probably look into it later.
00:21:32Oh, you must.
00:21:33You must.
00:21:45Right upstairs.
00:21:50What's the matter with you?
00:21:52What's the matter with that dame?
00:21:54Nothing.
00:21:55The lady is simply eccentric.
00:21:57I'll show her up.
00:22:02I trust you will forgive my partner, Duchess.
00:22:04You see, he falls for every pretty girl he sees.
00:22:08I could not refuse you anything.
00:22:10You are my partner.
00:22:12You are my partner.
00:22:13You are my partner.
00:22:14You are my partner.
00:22:15You are my partner.
00:22:16You are my partner.
00:22:17You are my partner.
00:22:18I could not refuse you anything.
00:22:20You are so fascinating.
00:22:22Yes, I suppose so.
00:22:23You know, Duchess, sometimes I think it's a curse.
00:22:26Oh, by the way, is it customary to dress for dinner here?
00:22:30Oh, yes, yes, yes.
00:22:31We dress for all meals here.
00:22:33It gets a little drafty around 6.
00:22:39You know, I think Addington's idea
00:22:41is going to turn out all wrong.
00:22:4410.30 and all's well.
00:22:47Even the chief himself says it all is well.
00:22:50Oh, I don't believe anything I hear these days.
00:22:53Honey, you're going to believe me.
00:23:00Greetings, my friend, greetings.
00:23:03And salutations.
00:23:05I'd like a sweet.
00:23:06Certainly, certainly.
00:23:07Something modern or comfortable.
00:23:09Oh, something high up.
00:23:11Something high up.
00:23:13Would $30 a day be high enough?
00:23:15Quite satisfactory.
00:23:16May I register?
00:23:17Certainly, sir, certainly.
00:23:19Democrat or Republican?
00:23:27Ah, Switzerland.
00:23:29Oh, well, you'll love it here.
00:23:30Our radiators yodel all night.
00:23:33I'd like a room with a good exposure.
00:23:35He wants a room with exposure.
00:23:38Are we going to allow that here?
00:23:40Certainly.
00:23:41Your stupidity is stupendous.
00:23:43Stupendous?
00:23:44Stupendous.
00:23:45Stupendous.
00:23:46Stupendous.
00:23:48Stoop.
00:23:49Stoop.
00:23:50Not that way, not that way.
00:23:51S-T-O-O-P.
00:23:53Hey, is that the famous safe I read about?
00:23:57Oh, yes, yes.
00:23:59That's our safe.
00:24:00Well, I've got a lot of valuable jewels with me
00:24:02and I'd like to look it over if it's in order.
00:24:04Why, certainly, sir.
00:24:05It's always in order.
00:24:06Will you step this way?
00:24:07Very sturdy looking safe I should say.
00:24:19In what compartment will my valuables be kept?
00:24:22Here's where we keep all the valuable jewels, sir.
00:24:24Very very interesting.
00:24:26I'll send my jewels down later.
00:24:28Good, good.
00:24:29Our safe will always be open to you.
00:24:34Mark my word, there's going to be trouble around here.
00:24:42Come on, boy.
00:24:51Just a few samples from my father's factory.
00:24:57He manufactures lawn mowers.
00:24:58That's a great mower, all right.
00:25:02Come here, boy.
00:25:03Come on.
00:25:13Do you really think that fella's all right?
00:25:15Don't give it a thought.
00:25:16Society people are simply eccentric.
00:25:18He's a big shot.
00:25:22Big shot?
00:25:24He's a whole arsenal.
00:25:32Eleven o'clock and all's well.
00:25:47Honey, do you remember the other night, the moonlight night when we were in the boat?
00:25:54Gee, do I. And wasn't it fun?
00:25:58Mother!
00:26:00Well, I'm glad you admit it, after trying so hard to run away from me.
00:26:05Who's this odd-looking person?
00:26:07Well, uh...
00:26:10This is Wilbert Boswell, Mother.
00:26:12Oh, it is, is it?
00:26:13Well, I don't like his looks.
00:26:15Reminds me of your father.
00:26:18I'm pleased to meet you.
00:26:20Yeah, you just think you're pleased to meet me.
00:26:22Mary, you've made a great mistake and embarrassed your mother dreadfully.
00:26:25Oh, but Mr. Boswell here and his friend, Mr. Gansey, are wonderful hotel specialists.
00:26:29And, Mother, they're going to make us a fortune, aren't you?
00:26:33Good afternoon, folks. Good afternoon. Good afternoon.
00:26:35Are you being taken care of?
00:26:37Are you?
00:26:40There will now be a slight pause for station announcement.
00:26:46This is my mother, Mr. Gansey.
00:26:48Oh, well, that's different. How are you, Mother? How are you? How are you?
00:26:52And Mr. Blackwell.
00:26:54Fidget the digits, old pal. Fidget the digits.
00:26:56You're going to love us around here. You're going to love us.
00:26:58Are you the mother of that beautiful child?
00:27:01Yes, I am.
00:27:03Well, sir, do you know that I have never seen beauty so perfectly transplanted?
00:27:08Oh, Mr. Pansy.
00:27:11Hey, not Pansy. Gansey. Gansey.
00:27:14Look. Ga. Ga.
00:27:19Is that your little boy?
00:27:21No. Mr. Blackwell is my attorney and is to be my future son-in-law.
00:27:25I guess Mary will have something to say about that.
00:27:33You know, Mr. Pansy...
00:27:36Ga. Ga.
00:27:38You know, Mr. Gaga, I must be very careful of my daughter's social standing.
00:27:43Oh, yes.
00:27:44One must have a social position nowadays.
00:27:46Either that or a job.
00:27:48You know, I've always thought that Mary should marry a man of me.
00:27:52Oh, by all means, Mrs. Marsh. By all means.
00:27:55And you should do the same.
00:27:56Oh, Mr. Gansey.
00:27:58Your frankness frightens me.
00:28:02Are you married?
00:28:03No. I got this way from riding a bicycle.
00:28:09I think I'll register.
00:28:11You think you'll register, you little mugwump?
00:28:19I want a large room.
00:28:21You'll need it.
00:28:22What's that?
00:28:23I say we get some nice open ones.
00:28:25Come on, Mother. I'll show you to your room.
00:28:29You know, I think you're a man of charm and intellect.
00:28:33You'll make a great success of this hotel.
00:28:36If it wasn't for him!
00:28:42I'll see you later.
00:28:49Have a boy show me my room.
00:28:50Certainly, certainly.
00:28:51Your room number would be 28.
00:28:5428.
00:28:55Now, if you wish anything else, just ring a towel.
00:29:01You're both delightfully unfunny.
00:29:06You're going to wipe out our business with those towel jokes.
00:29:11It won't be long now.
00:29:14It won't be long now.
00:29:18Do you really think that Mary will have to marry that fellow?
00:29:21I suppose she will. It's customary.
00:29:24Gee.
00:29:25But I'm in love with Mary.
00:29:27You've got to do something about it.
00:29:29For instance, what?
00:29:32If I could think, I wouldn't ask you.
00:29:35But if you're a pal of mine, you'll do something.
00:29:39I got it.
00:29:40Listen.
00:29:41I'll marry Mrs. Marsh.
00:29:43Then I will be Mary's father.
00:29:46When that happens, I'll give my consent to your marriage to my daughter.
00:29:51Which will make you my son.
00:29:53It's a little involved, but it'll work out all right.
00:29:57Addington.
00:29:58You don't mean to tell me you'd marry that battleship.
00:30:01Certainly.
00:30:03That's a lot of woman, boy.
00:30:05A lot of woman.
00:30:11Look, boy, we're getting the cream of society.
00:30:15Good afternoon, my good man.
00:30:17What good can we do for you?
00:30:19Nice weather we're having.
00:30:21That is, for a small town like this.
00:30:25I am the Duke of Winchester.
00:30:27I would like a very expensive room.
00:30:29You'll get it.
00:30:31Ah.
00:30:32I see my wife is here.
00:30:34Your wife?
00:30:35Yes. In 24.
00:30:37Oh, yes. In 24.
00:30:39That was six years after the war.
00:30:42Is, uh...
00:30:43Yes, that's our little safe.
00:30:45A marvelous piece of furniture.
00:30:47And now, if you don't mind, I'll go to my room.
00:30:49I don't mind a bit. You just run right along.
00:31:00Look at this.
00:31:04Why, it couldn't be him.
00:31:06It couldn't be, but it is.
00:31:08Wait a minute.
00:31:09I'll ask him.
00:31:11I beg your pardon, sir.
00:31:13Is that you?
00:31:23My, oh, my.
00:31:24I do wish they would catch this scoundrel.
00:31:26Well, you know the police are not to holler around here.
00:31:28No, no.
00:31:29They're very lackadaisical.
00:31:38I'm getting sick of this.
00:31:39Lack, lack, lack, lack.
00:31:41Hell, hell, hell.
00:31:46You know, I've been mistaken for him many times.
00:31:49It's most annoying.
00:31:51Oh, yes. I should say it.
00:31:52Must be.
00:31:53What right has he got running around looking like you anyway?
00:31:56Rather a peculiar coincidence.
00:31:59Say what?
00:32:00Very peculiar.
00:32:01Yeah.
00:32:02It must have been two other fellows.
00:32:04Yes.
00:32:05Yes.
00:32:06It must have been.
00:32:07May I show you up?
00:32:09Personally, sir.
00:32:11I'm honored.
00:32:20Mr. Gansey seems very intelligent.
00:32:23But if that other person had another brain,
00:32:25he'd still have just one.
00:32:28Oh, Mother, I think you're all wrong about Wilbert.
00:32:31He has such a sweet personality.
00:32:33And he's a man you can trust.
00:32:35Nonsense.
00:32:36John Blackwell's the man for you.
00:32:38He's wealthy, worldly, and wise.
00:32:48Oh, my love.
00:32:49You are here.
00:32:51Oui, mon cher.
00:32:52And I like it very much.
00:32:53Oh, I'm so glad.
00:32:54I'm so glad.
00:32:55Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:32:56You bring the luggage in.
00:33:06I think he knows the combination of the safe.
00:33:08What'll we do?
00:33:09Dominate him.
00:33:10Wear him down.
00:33:11Take your cues from me.
00:33:20Beat it.
00:33:21I'll get him.
00:33:23Can I do anything else for you?
00:33:26Yes.
00:33:31I am starving.
00:33:34Well, I'm a little hungry myself.
00:33:36But I am starving for love.
00:33:40Love?
00:33:44I'm hungry for love.
00:33:47I'm hungry for love.
00:33:49I'm hungry for love.
00:33:52Stop.
00:33:57Come over here.
00:33:59No.
00:34:00Will you come over here?
00:34:02Why, certainly.
00:34:07Now put your arms around me.
00:34:11Put your arms around me.
00:34:13Now make love to me.
00:34:16Ah.
00:34:17Make love to me.
00:34:21You mean forfeit?
00:34:23Make love to me.
00:34:29I simply will not be mother-in-law to such a person as Wilbur Boswell.
00:34:32I don't care.
00:34:33I love him, and I'm going to marry him.
00:34:35Oh.
00:34:41Oh.
00:34:45Well, there's your Romeo making Juliet.
00:34:48Oh.
00:34:49He must be sick or something.
00:34:58Something is right.
00:35:06Now, I want you to do something.
00:35:10Now, Duchess, wait a minute.
00:35:12Wait a minute.
00:35:13Listen.
00:35:15My husband stole my mother's wedding ring.
00:35:18And he will put it in the safe.
00:35:20I must have that ring back.
00:35:23And I want you to give me the combination to the safe.
00:35:26But I don't know the combination.
00:35:28Don't lie to me.
00:35:29Honest.
00:35:30My partner's the only one who knows it.
00:35:33Go down and get it from him.
00:35:36Well, I'll try.
00:35:38But he's the tightest guy I ever saw.
00:35:43Wait.
00:35:49Wait.
00:36:13What is the matter?
00:36:15Duchess, do me a favor.
00:36:17What?
00:36:18Please don't tell anybody about this.
00:36:23Is there another woman in your life?
00:36:26Only Mary.
00:36:27No.
00:36:28You see, that is, I, uh...
00:36:29Mary?
00:36:30If I find this Mary or any other woman making love to you, I'll kill her.
00:36:35So will I.
00:36:42Mary!
00:36:43Don't talk to me.
00:36:44I saw you in the arms of that woman.
00:36:46Oh, but Mary, I...
00:36:48Oh, gee, Mary.
00:36:50Honey.
00:36:51Oh, now, wait a minute, Mary.
00:36:53Honest, Mary, will you let me explain?
00:36:55Oh, will you leave me alone?
00:36:59Stop!
00:37:03Come over here.
00:37:05I won't do it.
00:37:06Come here!
00:37:08You...
00:37:09You brute!
00:37:14Come on.
00:37:15Over here.
00:37:17Will you come over here?
00:37:20Come on!
00:37:23Put your arms around me.
00:37:25Come on!
00:37:29Now make love to me.
00:37:35Oh, Wilbur, I do love you, but...
00:37:39I don't trust you.
00:37:41I know, honey.
00:37:43I can explain everything.
00:37:45It'll take a long time, but I can do it.
00:37:50Are you sure there's no other woman?
00:37:54Positive, precious.
00:37:56Oh, Wilbur, I'm so happy.
00:38:00So am I.
00:38:02And you promise we'll never have another quarrel?
00:38:06I swear...
00:38:07Uh-uh.
00:38:08Knock on wood.
00:38:13Honey, we'll never have another argument again as long as we live.
00:38:27Well?
00:38:29You get out of here.
00:38:31Go on, get out.
00:38:33Why...
00:38:35How dare you make love to me?
00:38:38I never saw her before in my life.
00:38:42Positively, Duchess.
00:38:44Why, she's a perfect stranger to me.
00:38:47Go on, get out of here.
00:38:49Go on.
00:38:53Duchess...
00:38:55Why are women weak for me?
00:38:58Get that combination.
00:39:03Yes, sir.
00:39:13Do you think he'll get the combination to the safe?
00:39:17I doubt it.
00:39:19Well, then you'll have to vamp the other fella.
00:39:21All right, all right, I will.
00:39:24Mr. Barton, Mr. Gansey,
00:39:27that Mr. Blackwell and a gang of crooks are plotting in room 28.
00:39:32There you are, Addington.
00:39:33What did I tell you?
00:39:34Tut-tut.
00:39:35I'll go upstairs and get the combination.
00:39:38Well, it's worse than I thought.
00:39:41The girl is in love with one of them.
00:39:43Looks like the old lady is going to fall for the other one.
00:39:45It seems like our work is cut out for us.
00:39:47Yeah.
00:40:08Come on in here.
00:40:09This room's empty.
00:40:21Which is which, Chief?
00:40:23The thin one's Gansey.
00:40:25The other one's Boswell.
00:40:26Nice boys.
00:40:27Just the type I like.
00:40:31You see, you're all wrong.
00:40:33They're very fond of us.
00:40:34They are?
00:40:35Certainly.
00:40:37Let's, uh, let's put them on the spot.
00:40:40Oh, I think we ought to take them for a ride.
00:40:44All right.
00:40:46We'll take them for a ride.
00:40:48Sure, yeah.
00:40:52Hey, you know what they're going to do?
00:40:54What?
00:40:55Tomorrow they're going to take us for a nice long ride.
00:40:58They are?
00:40:59Yeah.
00:41:00I hope it don't rain.
00:41:04After the ride, I'll give them each a nice juicy pineapple.
00:41:11Hey.
00:41:12What?
00:41:13Guess what?
00:41:14What?
00:41:15They're going to give us each a nice juicy pineapple.
00:41:17They are?
00:41:18Yeah.
00:41:21Oh, and I just love pineapples.
00:41:25Hey.
00:41:26What?
00:41:28Hey.
00:41:29What?
00:41:30I wonder if I could get them to change mine to a grapefruit.
00:41:33They're juicier.
00:41:34You can ask them.
00:41:35Well, I will.
00:41:37Listen.
00:41:38What?
00:41:40Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.
00:41:43I gotcha.
00:41:45Which only goes to prove that you are full of fears and foolish fancies.
00:41:49You're right, Addington.
00:41:51I feel so badly about this thing, I think I'll go in and hide.
00:41:56Good.
00:41:57You go hide and I'll go see.
00:42:04All right.
00:42:05Go ahead.
00:42:08And I'll give you an extra hundred for the job if you do it nice and clean.
00:42:12Don't worry.
00:42:13I used to be a dry cleaner.
00:42:18Hi, Bessie.
00:42:19Oh, uh.
00:42:21Could you help a lady in distress?
00:42:24In distress quicker than any other dress.
00:42:27What seems to be the difficulty?
00:42:29I can't get the cork out of a bottle.
00:42:32Oh, well, then you have stopped the right man.
00:42:34My first job was in the bottling works.
00:42:36I was a corker.
00:42:37Oh, I just knew you were a man of force.
00:42:40Not only a man of force, but a man of muscle, Duchess.
00:42:43Feel that.
00:42:45Not so hard, Duchess.
00:42:47Not so hard.
00:42:55Well, here's to me.
00:42:59You know, this stuff makes you see double and feel single.
00:43:05You know, Mr. Gansey, you're one of the cleverest men I have ever met.
00:43:11That's nothing.
00:43:12I'm one of the cleverest men I ever met.
00:43:18And that's not all.
00:43:21A man with a brain like yours really should be psychic.
00:43:25Psychic?
00:43:26Now, let's see.
00:43:27Who is he?
00:43:28Oh, a psychic person is one who is so mentally keen that they can read another person's mind.
00:43:34Is that so?
00:43:35Mm-hmm.
00:43:36Oh, yes.
00:43:37As a matter of fact, I'm a bit psychic myself.
00:43:40No.
00:43:41Mm-hmm.
00:43:42Would you like me to demonstrate?
00:43:43Certainly.
00:43:44Go ahead and psych.
00:43:46I love demonstrations.
00:43:47Go ahead.
00:43:48Psych around a while.
00:43:49Psych around a while.
00:43:50All right.
00:43:51You think of something, and I will read your mind.
00:43:54Well, that's a lot of reading matter, Duchess.
00:43:56A lot of reading matter.
00:43:58Be very careful what you think of.
00:44:01I may surprise you.
00:44:04Well, in that case, maybe I better think of something else.
00:44:07Now, let's see.
00:44:08What'll I think of?
00:44:09What'll I think of?
00:44:10You know, I got a lot of big things on my mind.
00:44:11What will I think of?
00:44:12Oh, almost anything.
00:44:15Say, the combination of your wonderful safe.
00:44:17The safe?
00:44:18Shoot, shoot.
00:44:20The numbers you are thinking of, 4, 7, 11, 19.
00:44:24Well, you missed.
00:44:25That's one on you.
00:44:27Oh, I'm very far?
00:44:29Very far.
00:44:30Why, you missed a mile.
00:44:31You're not psyching so well, Duchess.
00:44:34What is the combination?
00:44:36The combination of the safe is 10, 20, 30, 30.
00:44:39Oh, 10, 20, 30, 30.
00:44:4210, 20, 30, 30.
00:44:4460 in all.
00:44:46It certainly is strange.
00:44:48I must be tired from traveling.
00:44:49Yes, I suppose so.
00:44:51Perhaps I'd better take a little nap.
00:44:53Did you say nap or nip?
00:44:58Well, here's to better readings and weaker minds.
00:45:03And now, if you will excuse me,
00:45:06I think I will go rest in the arms of Morpheus.
00:45:10Is he registered here?
00:45:12I'll have to look him up.
00:45:16I'm glad we became so well acquainted
00:45:19in such a short time.
00:45:21Well, you know, Duchess,
00:45:23I'm kind of easy to know when you know me.
00:45:26You are rather easy.
00:45:29Hey, listen, Duchess, do me a favor, will you?
00:45:32Don't read my mind now.
00:45:39All's well.
00:45:41Hey.
00:45:42Keep your eye on a guy named Morpheus.
00:46:03Can you beat that for nerve?
00:46:05McKay and his gang.
00:46:08That's the most unethical mob in the racket.
00:46:10Yeah.
00:46:11They don't know what it is to be square.
00:46:14Why, there ain't an honest man among them.
00:46:18Well, son, how is it now? How is it now?
00:46:20Fine.
00:46:21That's good.
00:46:22Here's that nice Mr. Blackwell.
00:46:26Well, well, well, Mr. Blackwell,
00:46:28we certainly are delighted to have you in our midst.
00:46:31Hello.
00:46:32This party you're having tonight,
00:46:35what time does it start?
00:46:36Nine o'clock. Nine o'clock sharp.
00:46:38And don't forget,
00:46:39it'll be something to tell your children about.
00:46:41Be sure and be on the spot.
00:46:44On the spot.
00:46:45Now, Mr. Blackwell,
00:46:46of course we know that this is supposed to be a surprise,
00:46:49but I can't resist the temptation to tell you
00:46:52that we know all about that delightful little thing
00:46:54that you're planning for us tomorrow.
00:46:57What are you talking about?
00:46:59A little birdie.
00:47:02Oh, shut up.
00:47:03We know you're going to take us for a ride in the morning.
00:47:05And don't forget those pineapples.
00:47:10We love them, don't we?
00:47:12Yes, we do.
00:47:36Ah, the party is in progress.
00:47:39So it is.
00:47:42Will you, uh, bring the carnation with me?
00:47:45I don't mind.
00:47:48Gil?
00:47:55Oh, my God.
00:47:57Oh, my God.
00:47:59Oh, my God.
00:48:01Oh, my God.
00:48:03Oh, my God.
00:48:06Oh, my God.
00:48:10Look.
00:48:12The 20th century is just pulling in.
00:48:17Oh, Mr. Stanzi.
00:48:20I've been turning you over my mind all evening.
00:48:23Do tell.
00:48:24Well, I'm nonplussed, honey, nonplussed.
00:48:28Will you excuse me?
00:48:30You have no idea how easy that will be.
00:48:36Two buddies and twins make a great set of bookends.
00:48:41My, you look charming this evening, charming.
00:48:44Oh, Mr. Ramsey.
00:48:45I do hope you'll give me some of your time during the party.
00:48:49Darling, I shall always be within a stone's throw.
00:48:55It is a lovely stone, isn't it?
00:48:57Stone?
00:48:58It's a monument.
00:49:00Come, let us march and murmur.
00:49:01March and murmur.
00:49:03Well, you know, I was paying a visit.
00:49:06And I said, would you like to go for a tramp in the woods?
00:49:09And she didn't speak to me for a week.
00:49:13Oh, God.
00:49:15You know, I feel like a wild oat going out to be sowed.
00:49:20I'll be alone.
00:49:22Yeah, you're not scared, are you?
00:49:23No, no.
00:49:25But I must be careful of my social status.
00:49:28Well, sit down and nobody will notice it.
00:49:32Tell me, how did you make your vast fortune?
00:49:35Cattle, girlie, cattle.
00:49:37Down in dear Oklahoma.
00:49:39Down dear old Cimarron Way.
00:49:41Ah, the great open spaces.
00:49:44So different from New York.
00:49:46Oh, New York is all right.
00:49:48But I like Boston better.
00:49:50It's more like Grand Rapids.
00:49:52Your ranch must be gorgeous.
00:49:54Oh, it is, honey, it is.
00:49:56Do you know that my ranch is so swell
00:49:58that we don't have the cattle branded?
00:49:59No?
00:50:00No.
00:50:01We have them engraved.
00:50:03Tell me, what motor car do you use?
00:50:06Well, right now I'm using two.
00:50:08No.
00:50:09I'm often in the Ford.
00:50:11But I'm putting the big car up for the winter.
00:50:13You know, I'll just bet you've got a seat
00:50:16on the stock exchange.
00:50:18Seat?
00:50:19I've got a Morris chair.
00:50:21I did have a hammock, but I got rid of it.
00:50:24Tell me, tell me, what are your views on love?
00:50:27I have no views.
00:50:29I just love.
00:50:32Oh, I just knew you were that way, you little devil.
00:50:36But tell me, Sweetums, are you unmarried?
00:50:40Quite often.
00:50:42You know, I shall never forget my second husband.
00:50:45Your second husband?
00:50:47Yes, we met by accident.
00:50:49He ran over my first husband with his car.
00:50:51Oh, sort of a run-down condition, as it were.
00:50:53Yes.
00:50:54But what happened to him?
00:50:56Oh, he died very mysteriously.
00:50:59Is that so?
00:51:01Yes.
00:51:03You know, I was put out for over a year.
00:51:05Put out?
00:51:06Yes.
00:51:07You mean you were put in, don't you?
00:51:09Oh, no.
00:51:11Ah, but it wasn't long before I met my third husband.
00:51:13Your third?
00:51:14Yes.
00:51:15Oh, yes, yes, the third.
00:51:17And what happened to number three?
00:51:21Oh, he was put out for over a year.
00:51:24Poisoned.
00:51:25Poisoned?
00:51:26Yes.
00:51:27Excuse me, I'll see you later.
00:51:31Listen, you know, you remind me of my third husband.
00:51:34Oh, I remind you of the third?
00:51:36Yes.
00:51:37You're so keen, you're so alert, you're so alive.
00:51:41Yes, and I'm going to stay that way, too.
00:51:43Come here.
00:51:45Oh, I must tell you about my fifth husband.
00:51:48Your fifth husband?
00:51:50Yes.
00:51:51Now, wait a minute, honey, wait a minute.
00:51:52You jumped a husband on me.
00:51:54What happened to number four?
00:51:58I don't remember him.
00:52:00Oh, you don't remember him?
00:52:02No, no.
00:52:03No, he was nondescript.
00:52:05Oh, I see.
00:52:06One of those foreigners, huh?
00:52:07Yes.
00:52:09Ah, but I shall never forget my fifth husband.
00:52:11Well, lay it on, honey, lay it on.
00:52:13What happened to number five?
00:52:15He went to bed with spinal meningitis.
00:52:17Say no more, baby, say no more.
00:52:19You know what I'm going to do?
00:52:20No.
00:52:21I'm going out and look for a good undertaker.
00:52:23Oh, come back here, come here.
00:52:25I was only fooling.
00:52:27I was only putting you to the test.
00:52:29I wanted to find out whether you were brave and strong.
00:52:31Then you're not old lady Bluebeard yourself?
00:52:33No.
00:52:35You haven't had all those husbands?
00:52:37Certainly not.
00:52:39Oh, well, then I can speak freely.
00:52:41Honey, you appeal to me.
00:52:43As a matter of fact, you're mad at me.
00:52:45You're the biggest thing in my life.
00:52:47Oh.
00:52:48Will you marry me and be my widow?
00:52:50Our wife?
00:52:52Addington Rebecca.
00:52:54Oh.
00:53:0210 o'clock and all's well.
00:53:10Well, Gansey and Boswell are confidence men.
00:53:14Crooks.
00:53:16They are not.
00:53:18Well, Boswell is, he's not a crook.
00:53:20Well, perhaps not.
00:53:22But I don't think they'll be here tomorrow.
00:53:24Why do you say that?
00:53:27My information comes from a very reliable source.
00:53:30I still don't believe it.
00:53:33Supposing they do disappear tomorrow,
00:53:36will you marry me?
00:53:39Well, well, well, well, folks,
00:53:41I certainly am glad to see you entering
00:53:43into the spirit of the occasion.
00:53:45Come on, John, let's have a dance.
00:53:46Addington has something to talk over with Mary.
00:53:48Addington?
00:53:50Yes, Addington.
00:53:52Come on.
00:53:54Hello, mother.
00:53:56See you around.
00:53:58What in the world are you and mother talking about?
00:54:00Your mother and I have just been laying
00:54:02a few domestic plans.
00:54:04You see, we've decided to get married and end it all.
00:54:06Married?
00:54:08Yeah, so you may now consider me your papa.
00:54:10Come, child, sit.
00:54:13But I'm not sure I want you for a papa.
00:54:14What?
00:54:16Why, I'll make the finest little father
00:54:18that you ever had in your life.
00:54:20And if you're a good little girl,
00:54:22I may allow you to marry Wilbur.
00:54:24But I don't want to marry Wilbur now.
00:54:26Why, daughter?
00:54:28Why?
00:54:30Well, because he has a complex.
00:54:32That's all right.
00:54:34I'll make him trade it for a sedan.
00:54:36No, no.
00:54:38I mean he has another sweetheart.
00:54:40He has?
00:54:42Why, the scoundrel.
00:54:44Hey!
00:54:46What's the idea?
00:54:48I'm fixing it for you.
00:54:50Fixing it?
00:54:52You're chiseling, that's what you're doing.
00:54:54Don't pay any attention to that man, daddy.
00:55:02What is this thing called love?
00:55:06I hope you do marry your mother and she falls on you.
00:55:10I'm going out and do something desperate.
00:55:11Daddy, what makes him so wicked?
00:55:14He isn't wicked, daughter.
00:55:16He's weak.
00:55:19Do you think he loves me more than the duchess?
00:55:21Why, honey, he wouldn't trade you
00:55:23for all the duchess in Holland.
00:55:26What do you think I should do?
00:55:28Well, now that I've given my consent,
00:55:30I think you ought to look him up
00:55:32and tell him that everything is hotsy-totsy.
00:55:35Gee, but you're going to make a granddaddy.
00:55:38A granddaddy?
00:55:39A granddaddy?
00:55:5810.30 and all's well.
00:56:03If all's well now,
00:56:05I'd hate to see anything go wrong.
00:56:06What's ailing you?
00:56:08I think I'll commit suicide.
00:56:12Say, that's the best idea
00:56:14you've had since you came here.
00:56:18Here.
00:56:20Try that.
00:56:28Do you suppose I could hit my brain?
00:56:32Well, you'll see.
00:56:36You'll have to be an awful good shot.
00:56:42Oh, Wilbur, please forgive me.
00:56:44Daddy told me the truth about that duchess.
00:56:47You're just in time, honey.
00:56:49I was going to kill myself.
00:56:51I can't live without you.
00:56:57And I can't live without you either, Wilbur.
00:57:07Honey.
00:57:09Let's not go on the patio.
00:57:11Sit up here a minute.
00:57:15I want to talk to you about our future.
00:57:21Honey.
00:57:23We're going to put this hotel over.
00:57:26Then we'll be married.
00:57:28We're going to have a yacht.
00:57:31Summer and a winter home.
00:57:33Two automobiles.
00:57:36And...
00:57:38Yeah?
00:57:40A motorcycle.
00:57:44And maybe...
00:58:07I'll split the difference with you.
00:58:11Okay.
00:58:36Is that somebody knocking?
00:58:38Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:59:07There must be a storm.
00:59:16The lights are out.
00:59:18Gee, I'm scared.
00:59:20Let's find Mother Naddington.
00:59:22Come on, honey.
00:59:31My gal, this reminds me of down in dear old Oklahoma.
00:59:34Come on, let's get out of here.
00:59:45Hey, we'd better call this thing off
00:59:48or turn it into a swimming party.
00:59:50Quite right, Wilbur, quite right.
00:59:52Folks, on account of this slight weather disturbance,
00:59:55I think we'd better call the party off
00:59:57until tomorrow night.
00:59:59I would like to place my jewels in the safe.
01:00:02Rare judgment, Duchess, rare judgment.
01:00:05I'll do the same.
01:00:07An excellent idea.
01:00:09I'm not sure about this safe business.
01:00:12You're never sure about anything.
01:00:14Follow me, folks, and I'll open the safe for you.
01:00:22Boys, go upstairs and light some of those oil lamps
01:00:25right away.
01:00:26Wilbur, you open the safe.
01:00:28I'll collect the jewels.
01:00:30Now, we have a little envelope for you, folks.
01:00:32All you have to do is place them in there
01:00:34and they're on receipt.
01:00:38They're putting them in a box.
01:00:40Come on, let's get into our working clothes.
01:00:43Day day, boys.
01:00:45Come on, let's get going
01:00:47and beat that Duke and his gang to it.
01:00:51Good night, folks, good night.
01:00:53Good night.
01:00:55Now, you have them sealed tightly, have you?
01:00:57That's fine.
01:00:59Now, you can go to sleep and rest easy.
01:01:01Good night.
01:01:03Good night.
01:01:05Good night.
01:01:07Good night.
01:01:09Good night.
01:01:10Now, you can go to sleep and rest easy.
01:01:12Good night.
01:01:14Good night.
01:01:16Oh, you want us to keep that for you?
01:01:18Certainly.
01:01:20Good night, old boy.
01:01:22Sleep tight.
01:01:32Hey, Sherlock.
01:01:34All's well.
01:01:37Yes, and we want to keep it that way.
01:01:39You see this safe?
01:01:41Well, it's crammed full of valuable jewels.
01:01:44Is it?
01:01:47Is it, I'm telling you.
01:01:49And it's your duty to keep your eye on it all night.
01:01:52Don't take your eye off of it.
01:01:57Okay, Chief, leave it to me.
01:02:09Don't make any mistakes.
01:02:11Right.
01:02:13Two of us will go down the back stairway.
01:02:15Spike, you keep us covered
01:02:17from the other end of the balcony.
01:02:21Now, listen, boys.
01:02:23We've got to work fast.
01:02:25Help yourself to the stuff in the safe,
01:02:27but the main thing is Gansey and Boswell.
01:02:29Get them.
01:02:31That's Izzy's job.
01:02:33You take care of them.
01:02:35I'll take care of them.
01:02:36All right.
01:02:38I'm going to stick around on the balcony.
01:02:40And if anybody butts in, I'm going to pop them.
01:03:00I think I'm right when I say you're wrong.
01:03:01I think I'm right when I say you're wrong.
01:03:06Why?
01:03:09I hear noise.
01:03:11That's static.
01:03:13It's burglars.
01:03:15Lots of them.
01:03:17Will you go back to sleep?
01:03:19We've got to get up early tomorrow afternoon.
01:03:27I'm going downstairs and get those jewels
01:03:29and put them under my pillow.
01:03:31All right, go ahead.
01:03:33But I remain right here
01:03:35in this nice, comfortable bed.
01:03:37Well, I'm going down.
01:03:41And I'm going with you.
01:03:53What are you putting that hat on for?
01:03:55I might catch cold in my head.
01:03:57Well, that would be something.
01:04:02I'm going downstairs.
01:04:04All right.
01:04:31I'm going downstairs.
01:05:02Careful, son, careful.
01:05:04I think you damaged that vase.
01:05:07It's vase, Addington, vase.
01:05:10I looked it up this morning.
01:05:12Well, have it your own way.
01:05:14Come on.
01:05:27Stick your hands up.
01:05:28Gee, you scared me.
01:05:31For a minute, I thought it was a burglar.
01:05:33Keep those hands up.
01:05:35Me too?
01:05:36Yeah, you too.
01:05:38What's the big idea?
01:05:40If you're lucky, you'll read about it
01:05:42in the paper in the morning.
01:05:44We don't take the paper.
01:05:46Do we, Addington?
01:05:48Shut up.
01:05:58You know, I don't think it's safe here.
01:05:59You know, I don't think it's safe here.
01:06:29See if he's got a cigar.
01:06:47I'm smoking too much anyway.
01:06:49Come on, let's get out of here.
01:07:00I think they got me.
01:07:02Where?
01:07:07Now you'll have to travel on your stomach.
01:07:15They almost got me that time.
01:07:17They must be firing from the basement.
01:07:19Yeah.
01:07:25They're getting closer.
01:07:26Closer?
01:07:27They're right on our heels.
01:07:29Get a rifle.
01:07:44Hey.
01:07:45What?
01:07:46I got a great idea.
01:07:47Look.
01:07:57Say, that was great.
01:07:59Where'd you learn that?
01:08:01I came from Davenport.
01:08:04Hey.
01:08:05What?
01:08:06Get up and reconnoiter.
01:08:07I don't have to.
01:08:09Reconnoiter.
01:08:10Look around.
01:08:11Look around.
01:08:27Look around.
01:08:53Boy, that's some flight swatter.
01:08:56You know, I'm glad I stopped that.
01:08:59That is liable to awaken some of our guests.
01:09:01That's right.
01:09:17Come on.
01:09:21Now, did you get Gansey and Boswell?
01:09:23Get them, no.
01:09:24Say, they're two of the toughest guys I ever seen.
01:09:26What do you mean?
01:09:27What do I mean?
01:09:28I mean, they're down in the lobby with a machine gun.
01:09:30Bumping them off faster than they did in no man's land.
01:09:32Now, listen to me.
01:09:33I'm not going to lose the stuff and the girl on account of those two numbskulls.
01:09:36Now, you go downstairs and don't come back until you've nailed them both.
01:09:39Not me, Blacky.
01:09:40I'm leaving.
01:09:42Swine.
01:09:48I'll go down and get them myself.
01:09:49So?
01:09:54Mother!
01:09:55What?
01:09:56John Blackwell has gone downstairs to kill Wilbur.
01:09:58Good.
01:09:59And Addington.
01:10:01Not my Addington.
01:10:02Yes, I heard him say so.
01:10:03I'm going and tell Wilbur.
01:10:04Well, nobody's going to kill my Addington without my telling them about it.
01:10:08What'll I do here?
01:10:20Oh.
01:10:32How are we going to get over to that safe?
01:10:34We'll take the bus.
01:10:47I wonder where Wilbur is.
01:10:50Shh.
01:10:53Don't.
01:10:54This is no time to whistle.
01:10:56I know, but I have to save Wilbur.
01:10:58Yes, I know.
01:10:59You've got to stop inviting bullets in this direction.
01:11:01I'm too easy to hit.
01:11:03Come on.
01:11:10Ow!
01:11:20Ow!
01:11:36Come on, get on.
01:11:37Hey, where am I going to ride?
01:11:40Take the lower berth.
01:11:41Okay.
01:11:43You set?
01:11:44Wait a minute.
01:11:45Can you run this thing?
01:11:46Certainly.
01:11:47It's a standard shift.
01:11:48Oh.
01:12:03Good man.
01:12:04Yeah, he's watching things all right.
01:12:09You light a match.
01:12:10I'll work the combination.
01:12:13Hey, I've only got one match.
01:12:15That's not enough.
01:12:17Hey, here's a candle.
01:12:19Light it.
01:12:25Now hold it close.
01:12:26Put it right under my nose.
01:12:31What are you so nervous about?
01:12:33Give me that candle.
01:12:35Ow!
01:12:37Careful.
01:12:38You want to mess up the floor?
01:12:42What's the matter?
01:12:43I forgot my combination.
01:12:44It's 10, 20, 30, 30.
01:12:46Here, I'll do it.
01:12:47You open it.
01:12:48Here.
01:12:50And hold it closer.
01:12:53Will you get it?
01:12:54Here, give me it.
01:12:57Do you want to make yourself sick at your stomach?
01:12:59Give me that.
01:13:04Are you crazy?
01:13:07Give me that, you dummy.
01:13:08You want to blow the joint up?
01:13:15Oh!
01:13:21Somebody must have turned the gas on.
01:13:27Oh, Wilbur, are you hurt?
01:13:29I never felt better in my life.
01:13:31Addison, are the Jews safe?
01:13:33Certainly they're safe.
01:13:34Haven't I been guarding them?
01:13:35Oh.
01:13:36Ah, the electricity's on.
01:13:39Looks like they wiped out a whole crime wave.
01:13:42Pick them up, boys.
01:13:45I'll have to congratulate you fellas.
01:13:47Rewarding these crooks will amount to a fortune.
01:13:49Reward?
01:13:50Yep, they've all got a price on their heads.
01:13:59I caught this here lady running away with his hair box.
01:14:03The jewels!
01:14:04Jewels!
01:14:05What?
01:14:06Jewels!
01:14:07Jewels!
01:14:08Why, Duchess, would you double-cross your old psychic sidekick?
01:14:12Jewels?
01:14:13Ha!
01:14:14It's the detective's lunch.
01:14:19Here's another one, Sheriff.
01:14:20Just found him under the sofa and he was still kicking.
01:14:22If I'm not mistaken, you're Buffalo Blackie, the smuggler.
01:14:26And you've been using the basement of this hotel for a storehouse.
01:14:29Basement?
01:14:30I didn't know he had one.
01:14:31Come on.
01:14:33Well, I swan.
01:14:39Can I have Mary now?
01:14:41Tell me, Poppa.
01:14:43Shall we give our little daughter away?
01:14:45Certainly.
01:14:46We'll get another one.
01:14:53Twelve o'clock in All's Well.
