WAIT FOR ME.
I'LL ONLY BE A MINUTE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI CAN'T WAIT.
SURE YOU CAN.
I DO THAT ALL THE TIME.
I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU DO
ALL THE TIME, MISTER. IT AIN'T
RIGHT TO HOLD A CAB THESE DAYS.
THERE USED TO BE 11,811 CABS
OPERATING IN NEW YORK CITY.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNOW THERE'S
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLESS THAN 10,000.
OKAY, YOU WON THE CASE.
RIGHT NOW EVERY NEW YORK CAB
HAS TO TAKE CARE OF 1,156
PEOPLE, AND THAT'S A LOT--
I SAID YOU WON THE CASE.
DO YOU HAVE TO CONVERT ME TOO?
HERE. KEEP IT.

- HELLO, MR. O'MARA.
- EVENING, HONEYBUNCH.
♪ [ Slow Jazz ]
♪ [ Stops ]
\h\h\h\hHELLO, PET.
I TOLD YOU I HAD
A DATE FOR DINNER.
ANYBODY WANT A CUP OF COFFEE?
NO, THANKS.
BUT I'D LIKE SOME CREAM.
UH-UH, ANGELUS.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI'LL DEFINITELY START
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMY DIET--
TOMORROW. I KNOW.
WELL, ANYWAY, YOU FINISHED
MY UPPER PART.
AND DON'T FORGET. THIS IS
THE ONLY PLACE I EVER EAT.
WHEN ARE YOU GOING
TO LET ME COME
LIVE WITH YOU, DAISY?
WHEN YOU REDUCE
YOUR SUITOR TRAFFIC.
HERE'S THE CREAM,
HONEYBUNCH.
ALL RIGHT, DARLING.
GET UP AND LIVE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHANK YOU.
THAT'S THE LAST OF
THE EBERHARDT SERIES.
IT'S HALF PAST TIME
I GOT DRESSED FOR DINNER.
DON'T GIRLS EVER DIE IN BED
IN YOUR MAGAZINES?
SURE-- SUFFOCATION,
BUT I DON'T LIKE IT.
WITH A PILLOW OVER MY FACE,
I LOOK LIKE ANYBODY.
[ Chuckles ]
HOW ABOUT MONDAY AT 9:00?
WE START ON THE FULLER JOB.
SWELL. SEE YOU MONDAY.
HAVE A GOOD TIME,
HONEYBUNCH.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hGOOD NIGHT, MR. O'MARA.
GOOD NIGHT, ANGELUS.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hGOOD NIGHT, DAISY.
[ Door Closes ]
I'VE GOT TO GET DRESSED.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI CAN'T STAY, PET.
I TRIED TO CALL YOU
ALL AFTERNOON,
BUT YOUR LINE WAS BUSY.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI CAN'T MAKE DINNER AT
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHE LATIMERS' TOMORROW.
OH, HONESTLY. DO YOU REALIZE...
THIS IS THE THIRD TIME WE'VE
MADE A DATE WITH THE LATIMERS
AND YOU'VE BROKEN IT?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hHONEY, IF YOU
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLET ME TALK I--
WHY SHOULD I?
I DON'T INTEND TO BELIEVE
A WORD YOU'RE GOING TO SAY.
ONCE, YES.
BUT THREE TIMES IN A ROW.
MAKE IT THE WEEK AFTER NEXT,
AND I'LL BE THERE
IF IT KILLS ME.
I WILL NOT.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO
ANYWHERE WITH ME.
WE JUST WON'T PLAN
ANYTHING AT ALL.
COME ON, TUBBY.
SURE YOU DON'T
WANT SOME COFFEE?
NO, THANK YOU.
I DON'T WANT ANY COFFEE.
GOING TO RAIN.
OH, FINE.
LET'S MAKE CONVERSATION.
DO YOU THINK THERE'LL BE RAIN
FOR THE ENTIRE EASTERN SEABOARD
THIS WEEKEND?
I HOPE NOT. I'M GOING TO
WASHINGTON. HARD ENOUGH TO GET
A TAXI WHEN IT ISN'T RAINING.
WASHINGTON? HOW THRILLING.
HARRY S. WANT YOUR ADVICE
ON ATOMIC ENERGY?
NOW, LOOK. YOUR BEING MAD
IS SILLY, AND YOU KNOW IT.
I'VE NEVER BROKEN A DATE UNLESS
I COULDN'T HELP IT. UNLESS
SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT--
THANKS.
\h\h\h\hI DON'T MEAN
\h\h\h\hYOU'RE NOT IMPORTANT.
BUT WE CAN GO TO THE LATIMERS'
NEXT WEEK, AND WE CAN
SEE EACH OTHER ANYTIME.
DO YOU REALIZE IN ALL THIS TIME,
EVER SINCE THE LATIMERS
FIRST INTRODUCED US,
THAT WE HAVEN'T MADE
A SINGLE OTHER MUTUAL FRIEND?
THOSE STAIRS OF YOURS
ARE DRIVING ME NUTS.
WHY DON'T YOU LIVE
SOMEPLACE CIVILIZED?
THAT APARTMENT ON 63rd STREET--
I CAN'T HOLD IT FOREVER.
YOU'RE DETERMINED TO HAVE
A GOOD ROW, AREN'T YOU?
THIS IS MY APARTMENT.
IT'S BEEN MY APARTMENT SINCE
I STARTED TO WORK IN NEW YORK.
I LIKE IT,
AND I'M KEEPING IT.
YOU'RE MAKING PLENTY
OF MONEY YOURSELF.
I HAVE A THEORY THAT
YOU STAY IN THIS HOVEL
JUST TO PUNISH ME.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAND ANOTHER THING--
I DON'T THINK WE HAVE TIME
FOR A SINGLE OTHER THING.
I THINK WE WON'T SEE
EACH OTHER ANYMORE, DAN.
I THINK I'M THROUGH.
DO WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH
ALL THIS AGAIN?
NO, WE DON'T HAVE TO GO
THROUGH ANYTHING AGAIN.
I HAVE TO FIGHT TO STAY HAPPY--
FIGHT FOR EVERYTHING.
MY LIFE'S ALL MIXED UP
WITH YOU EVERY WAY I TURN.
AND WHAT FUN IS IT?
I'VE TRIED, AND YOU'VE TRIED.
IT ISN'T ALL YOUR FAULT.
THERE JUST ISN'T ENOUGH.
AT LEAST FOR ME THERE ISN'T.
YOU'VE GOT HER,
AND YOU'VE GOT THE KIDS.
YOU'VE GOT YOUR WORK
AND BEING A BIG SHOT
IN WASHINGTON.
I'VE JUST GOT MY WORK.
YOU MESSED THAT UP TOO.
WHEN I'M MAD I CAN'T WORK,
AND I'M MAD ALL THE TIME.
YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO MARRY ME,
BECAUSE YOU'RE NEVER GOING
TO BE DIVORCED FOR ALL YOU SAY.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHAT'S NOT FAIR--
YOU'RE
NEVER GOING TO BE DIVORCED, DAN,
BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE.
BELIEVE ME, I'M NOT
BEING SORRY FOR MYSELF.
I KNEW IT WOULD BE LIKE THIS.
IT'S JUST THAT I'M TIRED.
THAT'S ALL. TIRED AND THROUGH.
I'LL GET OUT WHENEVER
YOU TELL ME TO,
BUT I WANT YOU TO TELL ME
BECAUSE YOU MEAN IT,
NOT BECAUSE YOU'RE ANGRY.
ARE YOU REALLY
TELLING ME NOW?
I SAID I WAS.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYOU KNOW I DON'T
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLIKE SCENES.
I'LL GET OUT NOW,
AND I WON'T COME BACK,
IF YOU TELL ME.
DARLING.
WILL YOU EVER BELIEVE
I MEAN WHAT I SAY?
[ Chuckles ]
THAT DEPENDS ON
WHAT YOU SAY.
I WAS TAKING A CLIENT OF MINE
OUT TO DINNER TONIGHT--
PAYTON AMES, THE NOVELIST.
I'LL CALL HIM UP
AND TELL HIM TO FORGET IT.
I TOLD YOU I HAD
A DATE FOR DINNER,
AND YOU NEEDN'T THINK
THAT GETTING AROUND ME IS
GOING TO CHANGE MY MIND.
YOU'RE MOST OF MY LIFE,
DAISY--
THE ONLY PART OF IT
THAT MATTERS.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWE CAN'T STOP.
I'VE TRIED.
HONESTLY, I'VE TRIED.
AND I WILL ONE DAY TOO.
ALL RIGHT, YOU WILL.
YOU STOP SOMETIME,
MAYBE NEXT YEAR, NEXT WEEK,
BUT NOT THIS WEEK.
[ Laughs ]
ALL RIGHT. NOT THIS WEEK.
NOW GO ON. BEAT IT.
MY DATE'S DUE.
GOOD NIGHT.
GOOD NIGHT, DAN.
[ Door Closes ]
[ Thunder Rumbling ]
[ Whistles ]
TAXI!
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWAIT FOR ME.
HEY, TAXI!
SORRY, I'M KEEPING HIM.
ISN'T RIGHT TO HOLD
A CAB THESE DAYS.
EVERY NEW YORK CAB
HAS TO DO FOR 1,156 PEOPLE.
ANYWAY, MISS KENYON
WON'T BE READY.
OH, SHE'S EXPECTING YOU,
BUT I'M AFRAID I DELAYED HER
A LITTLE BIT.
[ Buzzer Buzzes ]
GO RIGHT UP.
I'LL SEND THE CAB BACK
WHEN I'M THROUGH WITH IT.
HE AIN'T PAID.
THAT'S OKAY.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF THAT
AND DOUBLE THE REST.
8883 PARK.
JUST GET GOING.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hOKAY.
\h\h\h\hHELLO, MISS KENYON.
HELLO.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAM I TOO EARLY?
NO, I'M A VERY SLOPPY GAL
AND NEVER ON TIME.
A FRIEND DROPPED IN,
AND I COULDN'T START CHANGING.
THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
I'VE GOT A WHOLE WEEK
BEFORE I REPORT BACK,
SO TAKE YOUR TIME.
COME ON IN
AND MIX YOURSELF A DRINK,
WILL YOU?
RIGHT THERE.
I WON'T BE TOO LONG.
WELL, HELLO, BEAUTIFUL.
HOW DO YOU DO? YES.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYOU STILL HERE?
I SHOULD SAY.
EVERYTHING SEEMS TO GO WRONG
WHEN YOU'RE IN A HURRY.
YOU KNOW HOW IT IS.
AH, IT'S ALL RIGHT.
WE'VE BECOME
VERY CLOSE FRIENDS.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYOU LIKE TUBBY?
AH, HE'S A BEAUTY.
I THINK IT'S
STOPPED RAINING.
WOULD YOU LIKE THE BREVOORT
FOR DINNER? I HAVEN'T BEEN THERE
SINCE BEFORE THE WAR.
I'D LOVE IT.
WHERE ARE YOUR RIBBONS?
OH, I MUST'VE LEFT THEM
AT THE CLEANERS.
YOU MUST'VE BEEN WORSE OFF
AT THAT PARTY LAST NIGHT
THAN YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE.
I'M ALWAYS WORSE OFF
THAN I THINK I AM.
DON'T YOU REMEMBER
GIVING THESE TO ME?
I ALWAYS GIVE THEM AWAY
WHEN I FIND SOMEBODY
WHO WILL LISTEN TO ME.
WHY DID YOU ASK ME 400 TIMES
LAST NIGHT IF I WERE REAL?
WHY NOT?
NOTHING ELSE HERE IS REAL.
WHEN I CAME BACK FROM EUROPE
THE FIRST TIME
AFTER V-E DAY,
THEY CHANGED SIXTH AVENUE
INTO SOMETHING CALLED
"AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS."
IT WASN'T NEW YORK.
\hIT WASN'T HOME.
THAT'S WHY I WENT
BACK TO GERMANY WITH
THE ARMY OF OCCUPATION.
HMM. GERMANY,
WHERE NOTHING WAS CHANGED,
OF COURSE.
YOU GOING TO BE IN THE ARMY
ALL YOUR LIFE?
I'D INTENDED TO,
UNTIL I MET YOU.
MISS ANGELUS TELLS ME
YOU'RE A YACHT DESIGNER.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hUSED TO BE.
I REMEMBER NOW. YOU DESIGNED
THE LAPHAM SIX METER.
THERE WERE BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHS
OF BOATS IN THE MAGAZINES
BY A SUSY LAPHAM.
WAS THAT SOMEONE
IN YOUR FAMILY?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMY WIFE.
SAY, WHAT IS IT
WITH YOU GUYS?
DON'T ANY OF YOU EVER GO BACK
TO THE WIVES YOU LEFT
WHEN YOU WENT TO WAR?
[ Doorbell Buzzes ]
\h\h\h\hEXCUSE ME.
[ Buzzing ]
- HELLO?
- YOUR CAB, LADY.
I TOOK THAT PARTY UP TO PARK.
HE SAID TO COME BACK,
YOU'D BE WAITING.
BE DOWN IN A MINUTE.
SEEMS MY FRIEND SENT
HIS CAB BACK FOR US.
THEY'RE HARD TO GET IN THE RAIN.
HE MUST'VE BEEN LUCKY.
HE WAS. HE TOOK MINE.
SURE, LET'S GO.
HE CAN BE VERY RUDE AT TIMES.
\hHE WAS, I SUPPOSE.
I DIDN'T NOTICE.
WE WERE TALKING
ABOUT YOUR WIFE.
YOU WERE, YES.
SHE'S DEAD.
OKAY, HONEYBUNCH.
WELL, DON'T YOU WORRY.
IF THEY GET YOU, I PROMISE
TO VISIT YOU IN LEAVENWORTH...
WITH FLOWERS.
[ Chuckles ]
GOOD NIGHT.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDANNY, DARLING.
THE OFFICE TELEPHONED AGAIN.
THERE JUST ISN'T A DRAWING ROOM
ON THAT TRAIN.
THEY TRIED AND TRIED.
YOU WANTED IT TO WORK IN,
DIDN'T YOU?
WHAT DID YOU THINK
I WANTED IT FOR?
OH, I'M SORRY, BABY.
MERVYN!
DAN, HE'S RIGHT
BEHIND YOU.
YES, SIR?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMERVYN, IT'S
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHE 12:30 I'M TAKING.
BRING MY BAG AND MY BRIEFCASE
DOWN TO PENN STATION
AND MEET ME AT THE TRACK GATE.
YES, SIR.
DAN, YOU WORK TOO HARD. YOU KNOW
YOU DO. EVEN FATHER THINKS SO.
[ Rings ]
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWELL, YOU NEVER GET
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hA DECENT VACATION.
MR. HARRIS.
YOU'RE STUCK HERE ALL SUMMER.
HALF THE TIME, NO WEEKEND.
\h\h\h\hI DON'T SEE HOW YOU DO IT.
\h\h\h\hONE OF THESE TIMES--
HELLO, HARRIS. LUCILLE, PLEASE.
LOOK, HONEYBUNCH, I'M HOME,
AND I'M RELAXING, SO CALL ME
IN WASHINGTON, WILL YOU?
RIGHT. SO LONG.
DAN, WHAT ARE YOU GOING
TO WASHINGTON FOR ANYWAY?
OFFICIALLY I'M GOING DOWN
TO PRESENT A BRIEF TO S.E.C.
ON AMALGAMATED GAS.
BUT WHILE I'M THERE--
\h\h\h\hI COULD NEVER REMEMBER THAT.
\h\h\h\hNEVER MIND.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING,
BUT NO ONE EXPECTS ME TO
ANYMORE, SO IT DOESN'T MATTER.
YOU THINK I KNOW
WHAT I'M DOING, BABY?
- WHERE ARE THE GIRLS?
- ROSAMUND'S PRIMPING.
\h\hSHE'S TERRIBLY EXCITED.
DANNY, I DO WISH YOU'D
CONSULTED ME BEFORE YOU TOLD HER
SHE COULD GO WITH US TONIGHT.
THIRTEEN'S NO AGE
FOR THE STORK CLUB.
WHAT'S THE HARM IN IT?
WHERE'S MARIE?
\h\h\h\hSHE'S DOING HER HOMEWORK.
SHE'S GETTING AWFULLY
INDEPENDENT TOO, DAN.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT--
WELL, HOW DO YOU LIKE?
[ Whistles ]
FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS,
HONEY.
ROSAMUND, IF YOU DON'T TAKE OFF
SOME OF THAT LIPSTICK,
YOU'RE NOT GOING WITH US.
I'VE TOLD YOU TWICE NOW.
DAN, DO YOU THINK
IT'S TOO MUCH?
OF COURSE IT IS,
BUT IT'S VERY ATTRACTIVE.
ROSAMUND,
YOU HEARD ME.
MOMMY, I'M NOT THAT YOUNG.
YOU FORGET MY NAME'S O'MARA,
AND THERE'S A LIFE OF
INTERESTING CRIME AHEAD OF ME.
[ Chuckling ]
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h[ Sighs ]
YOU'RE VERY MEAN TO YOUR MOTHER.
YOU SHOULDN'T BE. SHE'S SWEET.
YOU LAUGHED, DAN.
DADDY, WHERE ARE
WE GOING TONIGHT?
DINNER AT THE COLONY, THEN THE
STORK CLUB. IS THAT ALL RIGHT?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTERRIFIC.
[ Lucille ]
MARIE!
[ Slaps ]
[ Girl Sobbing ]
RIGHT TO YOUR ROOM.
TO YOUR ROOM THIS INSTANT!
\h\h\hWHAT'S GOING ON?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h[ Sobbing ]
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDADDY!
WHAT IS IT, BABY?
MARIE HAS BEEN INSOLENT.
I TOLD HER TO STAY
IN HER ROOM...
BECAUSE SHE HAS TWO HOURS
OF HOMEWORK TO DO, BUT SHE--
WHAT IS IT?
SHE HIT ME.
\hSHE HIT ME.
BUT SHE SAID THINGS.
I'VE NEVER BEEN SPOKEN
TO LIKE THAT IN MY LIFE,
\h\h\h\hAND BY MY OWN CHILD, I--
COULDN'T BE THAT BAD,
BABY.
I'VE GOT WORSE FROM MY OLD MAN
FOR NOTHING BUT SNIFFLING WHEN
I DIDN'T HAVE A HANDKERCHIEF.
I THINK YOU'VE BEEN
VERY RUDE TO YOUR MOTHER.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hBUT SHE CALLED ME--
THAT'S ONE OF THE VERY WORST
THINGS YOU COULD DO, TALKING
TO YOUR MOTHER LIKE THAT.
\h\h\h\hBUT, DAN, YOU DON'T UNDERS--
LUCILLE, WOULD YOU STRAIGHTEN
UP THOSE FLOWERS, PLEASE?
\h\h\h\h[ Sobbing Continues ]
THAT'S THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT,
BABY.
YOU MUSTN'T BE RUDE
TO YOUR PARENTS.
THE FOURTH.
THAT'S HOW IMPORTANT IT IS.
IT'S UP AHEAD OF MURDER
AND STEALING.
WHAT WAS IT YOU WANTED
ANYWAY?
I JUST-- I JUST WANTED TO
STAY UP WHILE YOU HAD COCKTAILS
AND SEE EVERYBODY.
I READ MR. AMES'S BOOK,
AND I WANTED TO MEET HIM.
I DON'T SEE ANY REASON
WHY YOU SHOULDN'T MEET HIM.
LUCILLE, I'M SURE SHE'LL
DO HER BEST TO GET HER HOMEWORK
FINISHED TOMORROW.
ALL THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH THE WAY SHE SPOKE TO ME.
AND LOOK AT HER.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h[ Doorbell Buzzes ]
LOOK AT YOURSELF,
DARLING.
DON'T KNOW WHAT
I'M GOING TO DO WITH YOU.
HERE WE ARE
WITH GUESTS ARRIVING AND--
THAT'S BETTER.
I'LL SEE TO THE GUESTS.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHANK YOU.
NOW SAY YOU'RE SORRY
AND GO WASH YOU'RE FACE.
I'M SORRY.
THANK YOU, DAN.
DON'T EVER HIT THAT CHILD
AGAIN, LUCILLE.
HOW CAN YOU HAVE
SO LITTLE CONTROL AS TO LET
AN 11-YEAR-OLD CHILD--
CONTROL?
IT'S EASY FOR YOU.
YOU SEE THEM
FIVE MINUTES A DAY--
JUST ENOUGH TO SPOIL THEM.
WELL, IF YOU COULD UNDERSTAND
HOW THANKLESS IT IS FOR ME--
NOW, LUCILLE,
A HALF AN HOUR OF HERO WORSHIP
IS NOT GOING TO HURT MARIE.
AND HOW DO YOU KNOW
WHAT HURTS HER--
WHAT HURTS ANYBODY?
I REALIZE WHAT I AM TO YOU.
ALL RIGHT.
ONLY DON'T INTERFERE
WHEN I TRY TO MAKE BETTER
HUMAN BEINGS OF MY DAUGHTERS.
NOW, LUCILLE, DEAR--
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNO, FOR ONCE
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI'M GOING TO SAY IT!
I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT
I AM TO YOU, AND SOMETIMES
I WISH I DIDN'T KNOW.
KNOW WHAT? YOU JUST LOST
YOUR TEMPER WITH MARIE, AND
NOW YOU'RE LOSING IT WITH ME.
I DON'T GET MAD EASILY,
AND I DON'T WANT TO NOW.
MAYBE I HAVEN'T BEEN THE BEST
HUSBAND, BUT IF YOU WANT ME TO
STAY ANY KIND OF HUSBAND AT ALL,
YOU'LL NEVER SAY ANYTHING AGAIN
LIKE WHAT YOU TRIED TO SAY
JUST NOW.
YOU SAY YOU KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT YOU ARE TO ME.
WELL, IF YOU DO KNOW,
YOU KNOW THE GOOD THINGS
AS WELL AS THE BAD.
YOU'LL NEVER HAVE ANY LESS,
UNLESS YOU ASK FOR IT.
AND YOU KNOW
IT ISN'T THANKLESS.
WE HAVE TWO FINE GIRLS,
AND YOU'RE TO BE THANKED
FOR THAT.
NOW GO POWDER YOUR NOSE.
LUCILLE, HONEY, GO ON.
DADDY. DADDY,
I'M SO HUMILIATED.
I ASKED MR. AMES TO AUTOGRAPH
HIS NOVEL FOR ME, AND WE HAVEN'T
A COPY IN THE HOUSE.
WELL, I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT YOU DO.
YOU GO OUT AND BUY A COPY
TOMORROW, AND I'LL GET IT
AUTOGRAPHED FOR YOU.
AND NEXT TIME,

TELLS ME THAT HE SPOKE TO YOU
ABOUT THE CASE.
OH, YES.
WELL, I COULDN'T HAVE BEEN
VERY INTERESTED, BECAUSE I DON'T
REMEMBER ANYTHING HE SAID.
NOGUCHI IS A NISEI JAPANESE.
FOUGHT IN ITALY.
WOUNDED, DECORATED.
CAME HOME TO FIND HIS FARM
LEGALLY STOLEN.
THAT'S NOT MY KIND OF CASE.
THERE ARE OVER 50 MILLION
VICTIMS OF THIS WAR.

KIND OF CASE.
IT'S AN UNPLEASANT,
THOROUGHLY THANKLESS

BE CALLED UPON TO PROTECT

DON'T COVER IT UP NOW.
GET AT IT.
WHAT WAS IT, PETER?
HOW DO I KNOW?
SUSY, PANZERLEHRDIVISION
OF THE SCHUTZSTAFFEL
AND A WELSH RAREBIT.
BUT MOST OF ALL, SUSY.
IF YOU SAY SO, DOCTOR,
ALTHOUGH I DON'T SEE
HOW YOU KNOW.
I'VE HAD TO WORK TO GET
DAN OUT OF MY SYSTEM.
I'VE DONE IT TOO.
NOW YOU'VE GOT TO WORK.
WHEN DID YOU WRITE THIS
TO SUSY?
THE NIGHT SHE DIED.
I'D FORGOTTEN ABOUT IT.
YOU GO THROUGH MY PAPERS
OFTEN, SWEETHEART?
IT WAS IN
THE COMMON PROPERTY DRAWER--
ALMOST AS IF YOU
WANTED ME TO SEE IT.
I'M GLAD I DID.
"THE WINDS OF EARTH
\hARE OLD AND SANE.
"BUT TELL ME--
\hTELL ME WHEN YOU KNOW...
WHAT HAPPENS TO A HURRICANE
THAT HASN'T ANY PLACE TO GO."
THAT WAS SELF-PITY.
THE WHOLE NIGHTMARE
WAS THAT.
DAISY, DO YOU KNOW
YOU'VE NEVER TOLD ME
YOU LOVE ME?
NO, DON'T SAY IT NOW.
I LIKE YOU
FOR NOT SAYING IT.
LET IT GROW.
LET IT GROW UNTIL LOVING ME
MEANS LOVING THE EARTH...
AND ALL THAT'S SWEET AND GREEN
AND MELLOW AND EXCITING

AND THE FACE OF THE OCEAN.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYES?
I LOVE YOU.

TO THAT HURRICANE THAT
HADN'T ANY PLACE TO GO.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWHAT?
I'VE HIT THE BIG TIME.

OH, HONEY, I'D GO WITH YOU.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

I'M SORRY, DAISY.

\hNOT PERSONAL THAT WAY.

THAT BLEW UP.
- YOU REMEMBER
\h\hTHE NOGUCHI CASE?
- YES, I REMEMBER.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW.
MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE IT GOT
MIXED UP IN MY MIND WITH YOU.
THE TWO LICKINGS TOGETHER--
DAN, I ASKED YOU
NOT TO COME IN. I DON'T LIKE
SEEING YOU THIS WAY.
I THOUGHT WE WERE
GOOD FRIENDS.
I HAVE THOUGHT OF YOU
MANY TIMES, BUT WHEN YOU
COME IN LIKE THIS, I JUST--
I'M GLAD YOU THOUGHT OF ME
WHEN YOU WERE HAPPY WITHOUT ME.
HAVE YOU BEEN HAPPY, BABY?
YES, TERRIBLY HAPPY.
HAPPIER THAN
I EVER MADE YOU?
THAT'S A VERY STUPID QUESTION.
YOU NEVER USED TO BE STUPID.
YOU SOUND CLINICAL.
THIS IS SOMETHING NEW.
I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT TIME
I BEGAN TO RUN MY LIFE
WITH SOME INTELLIGENCE.
MAYBE THAT'S WHAT SOUNDS NEW.
I ASKED YOU TO LEAVE, DAN.

WHAT WENT ON BETWEEN
YOU AND PETER THIS SUMMER?
YOU CONVINCED YOURSELVES
THAT YOU LOVED EACH OTHER.
THAT WAS EASY.
YOU'RE BOTH NICE PEOPLE.
SO, LOGICALLY,
THERE WAS NO REASON WHY
YOU SHOULDN'T LOVE EACH OTHER.
YOU THINK YOU KNOW
EVERYTHING, DON'T YOU?
SURE. I KNOW ALL
ABOUT EVERYTHING.
WHAT GOOD DOES IT DO ME?
CAN'T EVEN WIN

I DON'T FEEL SORRY FOR YOU, DAN.
OF COURSE YOU GOT BEATEN.
THAT'S NOT SO AWFUL.

EVERY DAY.

YOU THOUGHT ABOUT SOMEBODY ELSE
YOU LOST. WELL, THAT'S TOO BAD.

THAT WILL CHANGE THINGS

IT WOULD BE BETTER

OR HER LAWYER?

SHE WANTS A DIVORCE,
AND I CAN'T TALK HER OUT OF IT.
THE ONLY QUESTION IS,
WHAT KIND?
THE BEST THAT MONEY CAN BUY,
I GUESS.
LUCILLE'S QUITE BITTER
AT THE MOMENT. PERHAPS
YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT.
SHE WANTS TO
DIVORCE YOU IN NEW YORK
AND NAME MRS. LAPHAM.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAND WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I MIGHT BE ABLE TO PERSUADE HER
TO DO IT THE EASIER WAY,
IF YOU'D COOPERATE
ABOUT THE CHILDREN.
AND WHAT IS HER IDEA
OF COOPERATION
ABOUT THE CHILDREN?
SOLE AND ABSOLUTE CUSTODY.
OF COURSE, EVENTUALLY,
YOU'D BE ABLE TO SEE THEM WHEN
THEY'RE A LITTLE MORE GROWN-UP.
BUT LUCILLE THINKS THERE
SHOULD BE A CLEAN BREAK NOW
TILL THEY'RE ADJUSTED TO IT.

UNDERSTAND THAT.
TILL SHE'S SOLD THEM
ON THE IDEA THAT
I'VE RUN OUT ON THEM.

WELL, COME NOW, PAPA.

THEY'RE WAITING FOR ME
TO FLY BACK TONIGHT.
WHY'D YOU COME DOWN?
I WIRED HIM.
I HAVE THINGS TO SAY
TO BOTH OF YOU,
AND THERE'S NO POINT
IN SAYING THEM TWICE.
I WIRED YOU,
MR. LAPHAM,
BECAUSE I THINK
MISUNDERSTANDINGS
ARE CHILDISH.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWE'RE GROWN-UP PEOPLE.
I BELIEVE WE ARE.
DON'T YOU KNOW IT?
I HAVE A HUNCH THAT WHEN
PEOPLE KEEP ON TALKING ABOUT
HOW GROWN-UP THEY ARE,
IT ONLY MEANS
THEY'RE NOT VERY SURE OF IT,
MR. O'MARA.
WELL, IF YOU'LL LET ME TALK,
MAYBE YOU WON'T WORRY
SO MUCH ABOUT THAT.
LET'S SIMPLIFY ONE THING
AT LEAST.
HE'S CALLED PETER,
AND YOU'RE DAN.
IT ALL STARTED
ON WEDNESDAY.
I'D HAD A BAD DAY.
I LOST A CASE THAT--
WELL, THERE'S NO POINT
IN GOING INTO THAT.
BUT I WENT OVER
TO 12th STREET,
AND I BEHAVED LIKE A HEEL.
YOUR WIFE RESISTED.
I'LL BE FRANK TO SAY
IF SHE HADN'T RESISTED,
WE WOULDN'T ALL
BE SITTING HERE NOW.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hANY QUESTIONS
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hABOUT THAT?
NO, NOTHING IMPORTANT.
WHY ISN'T IT IMPORTANT?
BECAUSE IT DOESN'T MATTER
WHAT HAPPENED.
YOU'RE NOT
GETTING HOSTILE, ARE YOU?
THAT WASN'T ON THE AGENDA.
HONEYBUNCH,
I'M NOT HOSTILE.
HONEST. GO ON.
I WANT ANOTHER MARTINI.
YOU HAVEN'T TOUCHED
THE FIRST ONE YET.
WELL, THAT'S THAT.
IF IT WERE SOMETHING
THAT ONLY CONCERNED
THE THREE OF US,
WE WOULDN'T NEED TO
SAY ANOTHER WORD
ABOUT IT.
BUT I'M ASKING YOUR PERMISSION
TO LET ME TURN OUR PRIVATE
AFFAIRS INTO NEWSPAPER COPY.
LUCILLE IS SUING ME
FOR DIVORCE.
SHE WANTS TO DO IT IN NEW YORK,
NAMING DAISY AS CORESPONDENT.
THEY FIGURE, IN ORDER
TO KEEP DAISY'S NAME
OUT OF THE NEWSPAPER,
I'LL SIGN AWAY THE RIGHT
TO SEE MY CHILDREN.
OH, NO, DAN.
YOU MUSTN'T.
IT WOULD BE
TERRIBLE FOR THEM--
MARIE, ESPECIALLY.
I'M PUTTING IT
UP TO YOU.
IT'S NOT A THING
TO BE DECIDED WITHOUT
REALIZING WHAT IT INVOLVES.
THIS IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF COPY
SUNDAY SUPPLEMENT EDITORS
ARE LOOKING FOR.
WELL, IF THEY WANT A FIGHT,
WE'LL GIVE IT TO THEM.
WE HAVE MARY AS A WITNESS.
I'M SURE WE CAN LICK IT.
I'LL CLEAR YOU, BABY.
MAY I SPEAK NOW,
MR. CHAIRMAN?
I SUPPOSE SO.
I SAID IT DOESN'T
BOTHER ME, UH,
WHAT'S HAPPENED RECENTLY
BETWEEN YOU AND DAISY,
AND IT DOESN'T MATTER
WHETHER YOU CLEAR DAISY
OR DON'T CLEAR HER.
THAT NICE POINT WHICH IS GOING
TO MAKE SO MUCH DIFFERENCE
TO THE READING PUBLIC...
WON'T MEAN A THING TO ME.
I'M NOT BEING HOSTILE.
YOU SEE, I WALKED
INTO THIS MARRIAGE
WITH MY EYES OPEN.
I KNEW
WHAT I WAS UP AGAINST.
IT WAS A LONG SHOT,
BUT I THOUGHT
IT WAS WORTH THE CHANCE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWELL, WASN'T IT?
I CAN'T COMPLAIN.
I PUSHED MY WAY INTO YOUR LIFE,
DAISY, BECAUSE I NEEDED YOU.
WELL, I'M FINE NOW.
BETTER THAN EITHER OF YOU.
THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHAT ISN'T
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hALL THERE IS TO IT.
THE ONLY REASON I WAS
ABLE TO BREAK IN WAS THAT
HE DIDN'T LOVE YOU ENOUGH THEN.
IF I HAD MET YOU NOW
FOR THE FIRST TIME,
WOULD I BE ABLE TO BREAK IN?
I'LL DO MY OWN THINKING,
THANK YOU,
AND MY OWN EXISTING.
I'M ALL FOR THAT.
THAT'S WHY I'M LEAVING IT
UP TO YOU.
SO THAT YOU CAN WORK THIS THING
OUT FOR YOURSELF...
WITHOUT BEING BOTHERED
BY THE TECHNICAL DRAWBACK
OF A HUSBAND.
THAT'S A FORMALITY
WE CAN DISPOSE OF ANY TIME
YOU GIVE THE SIGNAL.
I DON'T WANT A WIFE
ON FORMALITIES.
\h\h\h\hPETER, HOW CAN YOU
\h\h\h\hSAY A THING--
[ Kisses ]
I DIDN'T PLAN THIS,
BABY.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYOU OUGHT TO KNOW THAT.
I'M ALMOST GLAD
IT HAPPENED.
THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A CRISIS
TO SHOW WHAT'S REALLY
INSIDE PEOPLE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYOU DON'T MEAN THAT.
DON'T YOU TELL ME
WHAT I MEAN!
LET'S GO.
I DON'T LIKE IT HERE.
IT WAS CLOSE TO 8:00,
WASN'T IT?
WHEN YOU RETURNED
TO THE APARTMENT...
AND DISCOVERED MR. O'MARA THERE?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYES.
AND YOU HAD BEEN GONE
SINCE A LITTLE AFTER 4:00?
YES, BUT IT'S HARDLY
IMPORTANT, SINCE HIS PLANE
DIDN'T GET IN TILL 5:30.

ON DIRECT EXAMINATION...
THAT YOU WERE SURPRISED
TO SEE MR. O'MARA,
DID YOU NOT?
YOU HEARD ME.
[ Murmuring ]
SO I DID.
BUT I FOUND YOUR SURPRISE,
SHALL I SAY, SURPRISING.
YOU WERE CERTAINLY AWARE THAT
THE TIES BETWEEN MRS. LAPHAM
AND MR. O'MARA...
WERE MORE THAN THOSE
OF A CASUAL ACQUAINTANCESHIP.
OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.
QUESTION IS AMBIGUOUS...
AND CALLS FOR A CONCLUSION
ON THE PART OF THE WITNESS.
OBJECTION SUSTAINED.
LET ME PUT IT THIS WAY.
YOU HAD SEEN MR. O'MARA
IN MRS. LAPHAM'S APARTMENT...
ON SEVERAL
PREVIOUS OCCASIONS,
HAD YOU NOT?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hBEFORE SHE WAS MARRIED.
OH, YES, THAT WAS
BEFORE SHE WAS MARRIED.
THEN YOUR SURPRISE CAME
FROM YOUR ASSUMPTION...
THAT HER MARRIAGE HAD ENDED
THEIR PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIP.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI KNEW IT HAD!
\h\h\h[ Chuckling ]
[ Man ]
I STAND CORRECTED.
BUT SINCE WE MUST
DEAL HERE WITH EVIDENCE,
RATHER THAN OPINIONS,
COULD YOU TELL EXACTLY
WHAT CONCRETE FACTS MADE YOU
SO POSITIVE OF THE CHANGE?
WELL, I--
I JUST KNEW IT.
THAT'S ALL.
THANK YOU, MISS ANGELUS.
YOU ARE A DEVOTED FRIEND.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hARE YOU THROUGH
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWITH THE WITNESS?
YES, YOUR HONOR.
UH, NO FURTHER QUESTIONS,
YOUR HONOR.
[ Judge ]
THEN WE'LL RECESS
TILL 1:00.
[ Chattering ]
HOLD IT, PLEASE,
MISS KENYON.
ROSAMUND!
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDON'T BLAME ME, DAN.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hIT'S MARIE.
WHAT'S THE MATTER
WITH YOUR EAR?
HONEY, WHAT'S THE MATTER
WITH YOUR EAR?
IT'S THE COLD. THE MINUTE
WE WALKED OUT OF THE HOUSE,
IT STARTED BLEEDING.
IF YOU'RE NOT HOME
IN HALF AN HOUR, THERE'LL BE
NO FUR JACKET FOR CHRISTMAS.
AND HAVE DR. RIEMER
LOOK AT THAT EAR.
[ Lucille ]
I HAD HIM LOOK AT IT THIS
MORNING. HE SAYS IT'S NOTHING.
DID SHE HAVE A BLOW
OF SOME KIND?
NO. IT'S PURELY
A NERVOUS THING.
NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.
ALL RIGHT, LUCILLE.
\h\h\h\hTHANKS!
WILL YOU SEE
THAT THEY GET HOME,
OR SHALL I?
I THINK THAT'S UP TO ME,
DON'T YOU?
COME ON, GIRLS.
THE LUNCHROOM
IS A FLIGHT DOWN.
SHALL WE WALK?
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE RIGHT.
THAT LAWYER'S BUILDING A CASE
FOR THE PAPERS AND NOTHING ELSE.
[ Sighs ]
WHY, DAN O'MARA.
I'M SORRY.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI KNOW.
YOU LIKE TO BUILD,
NOT DESTROY THINGS.
I JUST REMEMBERED SOMETHING
ABOUT THAT EAR.
WHEN LUCILLE
FIRST HEARD ABOUT YOU,
SHE TOOK IT OUT
ON THE CHILD.
SHE ALWAYS HAS EVER SINCE.
I SUPPOSE SHE DIDN'T MEAN
TO HIT HER SO HARD.
OH, DAISY,
FORGIVE ME FOR THIS.
SURE, BABY,
I FORGIVE YOU.
YOU KNOW, IT'S A COMMON
PSYCHOLOGICAL PHENOMENON
IN ALL THE NORTHERN COUNTRIES...
THAT THE FIRST SNOW OF THE YEAR
CAUSES ACUTE DEPRESSIONS.
THAT MUST BE IT.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYES,
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHAT MUST BE IT.
DO YOU DENY THAT BEFORE
YOUR MARRIAGE TO MR. LAPHAM...
YOU WERE IN
CONSTANT COMMUNICATION
WITH MR. O'MARA?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNO.
AND THE TESTIMONY OF
THE REAL ESTATE BROKER--
THAT MR. O'MARA RENTED
AN APARTMENT IN THE EAST 60s.
IF HE DID,
I NEVER LIVED IN IT.
THE PLACE I LIVED IN
WAS MY OWN.
I HAD A GOOD JOB.
I STILL HAVE IT. DO YOU
WANT ME TO PROVE THAT TOO?
THAT WON'T BE NECESSARY.
BUT TELL ME THIS,
MRS. LAPHAM.
IN THE PERIOD OF YOUR, UH,
CONSTANT COMMUNICATION
WITH MR. O'MARA,
YOU CAN TELL THE COURT
HOW OFTEN YOU HAD ENGAGEMENTS
WITH OTHER MEN.
YOUR HONOR, I MUST POINT OUT
AGAIN THAT MY DIRECT
EXAMINATION OF MRS. LAPHAM...
WAS CONCERNED SOLELY WITH
THE EVENTS OF THE EVENING
OF LAST SEPTEMBER 12.
IT IS MY PURPOSE TO PROVE THAT
THE EVENTS OF THE PAST...
FORM
A VERY SUBSTANTIAL BACKGROUND
FOR WHAT HAPPENED THAT EVENING.
BE THAT AS IT MAY, YOU ARE
NOT ENTITLED TO ESTABLISH IT
IN THIS CROSS-EXAMINATION.
YOU TESTIFIED EARLIER
THAT YOUR MARRIAGE
WAS A HAPPY ONE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWAS THAT TRUE
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hON SEPTEMBER 12?
YES.
AND ON SEPTEMBER 13?
I DID NOT SEE MY HUSBAND
ON SEPTEMBER 13.
ISN'T IT TRUE THAT
YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND
HAVE NOT LIVED TOGETHER...
SINCE THE NIGHT OF
MR. O'MARA'S RETURN
FROM CALIFORNIA?
OBJECTION!
I SUBMIT THIS WHOLE LINE
OF QUESTIONING IS IRRELEVANT.
MAY I ADD SOMETHING TO THAT,
YOUR HONOR?
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE
THE LEGAL RIGHT TO ASK
SUCH QUESTIONS.
BUT WHETHER YOU HAVE OR NOT,
I PROTEST THEM. I PROTEST YOU
AS A HUMAN BEING.
THAT WILL DO, MRS. LAPHAM.
THE OBJECTION IS OVERRULED.
THANK YOU,
YOUR HONOR.
I WOULD LIKE TO
ASK THE WITNESS TO TELL US,
IN HER OWN WORDS,
JUST WHAT IS THE PRESENT
STATUS OF HER MARRIAGE,
AND WHAT BROUGHT IT ABOUT.
WELL, IT-IT IS TRUE THAT
MY HUSBAND AND I ARE NOT LIVING
TOGETHER AT THE PRESENT TIME.
BUT IT WASN'T CAUSED
BY WHAT HAPPENED THAT NIGHT.
AT LEAST,
HE SAID IT WASN'T.
PETER DID--
MY HUSBAND--
HE SAID IT WASN'T IMPORTANT.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYOUR HONOR,
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMAY I SAY A WORD?
[ Murmuring ]
IF IT IS AGREEABLE
WITH PLAINTIFF'S COUNSEL.
THIS IS HIS CROSS-EXAMINATION.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hCERTAINLY, YOUR HONOR.
I REQUEST A RECESS
IN THIS TRIAL...
FOR THE PURPOSE OF
A PRIVATE CONFERENCE
WITH THE PLAINTIFF.
[ Murmuring ]
[ Gavel Raps ]
THE STATE IS ALWAYS WILLING
TO GRANT SUCH A REQUEST
IN A DIVORCE CASE.
MY CHAMBERS
ARE AT YOUR DISPOSAL.
THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.
WHY DID YOU DO THAT?
I COULD'VE GONE ON.
MAYBE YOU COULD,
BUT I COULDN'T.
THERE'S NO NEED FOR YOU
TO WAIT AROUND HERE.
GO HOME. I'LL COME BY LATER.
BUT WHY DID YOU
THROW IN THE SPONGE?
I LEARNED WHAT
REALLY MATTERS TO ME
WHILE YOU WERE UP THERE.
WHAT REALLY MATTERS?
I'LL GIVE YOU A HINT.
IT HAS TO DO WITH
HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU.
JACK, HAVE MARSHA FIND
PETER LAPHAM, WHEREVER HE IS.
TRACE HIM DOWN FROM THE CAPE,
BUT FIND HIM.
I TRUST WE ALL REALIZE
THERE'S NO SENSE IN CARRYING ON
WITH THAT SIDESHOW OUT THERE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDAN, I--
PLEASE, LUCILLE.
\h\h\h\hBEFORE THERE'S ANY TALK OF
\h\h\h\hA RECONCILIATION, I'D LIKE--
SKIP IT, PAPA.
THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE
ANY RECONCILIATION.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHEN WE'LL PROCEED.
FOR WHAT?
YOU HAVEN'T GOT A PRAYER
ON THAT KIND OF EVIDENCE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI THINK--
LET'S NOT WASTE TIME
WITH WHAT YOU THINK.
ASK SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS
A LITTLE LAW.
YOU CAN GO ON RAISING THE ROOF,
I'LL ADMIT THAT.
BUT WHAT'S THE POINT?
I'LL AGREE TO YOUR
ORIGINAL TERMS IN EXCHANGE
FOR A QUIET DIVORCE IN NEVADA.
YOU'LL HAVE THE GIRLS
ALL TO YOURSELF, LUCY.
GIVE 'EM A BREAK.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHEY DON'T WANT ME.
THEY WILL, IF YOU WORK AT IT.
I'LL BE READY TO TAKE 'EM IF
THE JOB GETS TOO MUCH FOR YOU.
OH, DAN, IT'S NO GOOD.
IT'S NO GOOD WITHOUT
THE TWO OF US.
NEITHER OF US ALONE
IS ENOUGH FOR THEM.
OH, DAN, I'VE HURT YOU.
I'VE HURT THE GIRLS,
AND DAISY, BUT--
BUT NOBODY
AS MUCH AS MYSELF.
I'M SORRY, HONEY.
THIS DIDN'T START OUT
AS MY IDEA.
YOU CARRY ON WITH THE DETAILS,
WILL YOU, QUINN?
[ Lucille Sobbing ]
HELLO, MR. LAPHAM.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMR. LAPHAM.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hIS THE BOSS BACK
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hFROM COURT YET?
YES, HE GOT BACK HALF HOUR AGO.
I'M SO GLAD
WE FOUND YOU SO QUICKLY.
HE'S WAITING FOR YOU.
[ Intercom Buzzes ]
\h\h\h\hYES?
MR. LAPHAM IS HERE.
SHOW HIM IN.
WELL, HELLO, PETER.
I'M GLAD I FOUND YOU IN TOWN.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HERE?
SOME TIME.
I'M WORKING ON PLANS FOR
A DIESEL FISHING FLEET.
I CALLED YOU TO SEE
IF YOU STILL MEANT SOMETHING
YOU SAID AT OUR LAST MEETING.
OH, SIT DOWN, WON'T YOU?
HAVE A CIGAR OR ANYTHING?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNO, THANKS.
NO CIGAR.
\hNO ANYTHING.
WHAT DID I SAY?
THAT YOU WOULD BE WILLING
TO BOW OUT OF YOUR MARRIAGE
ANYTIME DAISY GAVE THE SIGNAL.
YES, I THINK THAT'S
A PRETTY ACCURATE QUOTE.
AM I BEING SIGNALED?
I WANT TO MARRY HER.
I'VE TAKEN THE LIBERTY
OF DRAWING UP
THE NECESSARY PAPERS.
NATURALLY,
DAISY DOESN'T WANT
ANYTHING FROM YOU,
AND I ASSUME YOU DON'T
WANT ANYTHING FROM HER.
WHERE DO I SIGN?
YOU KNOW,
I'M COMPLETELY
BAFFLED BY YOU.
WELL, I DON'T PRETEND
TO BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN
MYSELF IN DETAIL,
BUT WHAT IS IT
THAT BOTHERS YOU?
I WAS PRETTY SURE
AT ONE TIME THAT
YOU WERE IN LOVE WITH DAISY.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWHO SAID I WASN'T?
WELL, HERE YOU ARE
GIVING HER UP WITHOUT A MURMUR.
THE LEAST YOU COULD DO
IS PUNCH ME IN THE NOSE.
I'D BE HAPPY TO,
IF I THOUGHT IT WOULD
ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING.
SUPPOSE YOU GIVE ME
ALL THE ARGUMENTS
IN FAVOR OF IT, THEN--
FORGET IT. I MIGHT
BE TOO CONVINCING.
RIGHT HERE. THREE COPIES.
DID SHE PREFER
THAT I SIGN FIRST?
WHO? DAISY?
WELL, NO.
NOT EXACTLY.
I'M AFRAID I DIDN'T
MAKE MYSELF QUITE CLEAR.
THE FACT IS,
I HAVEN'T ASKED HER YET.
OH.
WELL, DON'T YOU THINK
THAT WE OUGHT TO...
GO THROUGH
ALL THE FORMALITIES
IN THEIR PROPER ORDER?
SURE, IF YOU THINK SO.
WHY DON'T WE CALL DAISY
AND GO SEE HER?
FINE.
WHY DON'T WE?
[ Phone Ringing ]
[ Ringing Stops ]
TRYING TO SNEAK OUT
BEFORE I PAY THE RENT?
I'VE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE.
THAT PHONE'S BEEN RINGING
EVER SINCE I CAME IN.
I'VE GOT TO
GET BACK TO WORK.
THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS NOW.
I CAN'T FIGURE YOU.
YOU'VE BEEN IN LOVE
WITH DAN FOR SO LONG,
AND NOW THAT HE'S
STOPPED THE TRIAL TO SAVE--
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI CAN'T FIGURE MYSELF.
THAT'S WHY
I'M GOING AWAY.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT.
IT'S ABOUT TIME I FOUND OUT
ONCE AND FOR ALL.
[ Phone Ringing ]
YES?
YES, DAN?
PETER'S WITH YOU?
OH, NO. NO,
I'M NOT UP TO THAT KIND
OF CIVILIZED NONSENSE.
PLEASE, DAN,
DON'T BRING HIM HERE,
AND DON'T COME YOURSELF.
I'VE JUST GOT TO
BE ALONE FOR A FEW DAYS.
MY WORK'S PILED UP ON.
[ Daisy Sniffling ]
WANT TO TELL ME
WHERE YOU'RE GOING, SO I'LL
HAVE SOMETHING TO LIE ABOUT?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTO THE CAPE.
[ Ringing ]
HELLO.
OH. I'LL SEE
IF SHE'S HERE.
IT'S LUCILLE O'MARA,
SOUNDING 10 TIMES
WORSE THAN YOU.
HANG UP ON HER,
OR SHE'LL BE
CALLING YOU ALL NIGHT.
SURE, BABY.
I'LL HELP YOU
WITH THAT.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
CAN I HELP YOU WITH
THE BAGS, MA'AM?
NO, THANK YOU.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNOTHING ELSE
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI CAN DO?
NO.
\hNO, THANK YOU.
[ Ringing ]
- HELLO?
- BABY, WE'RE HERE
\h\hAT MILLS LANDING.
WE'RE ON OUR WAY
TO FACE THIS THING OUT.
IT'S NO USE RUNNING AWAY.
DON'T YOU EVER
BELIEVE WHAT I SAY?
I'VE GOT TO BE ALONE.
[ Phone Ringing ]
[ Ringing Continues ]
[ Ringing Continues ]
[ Ringing Continues ]
[ Engine Starts ]
[ Ringing Continues ]
[ Ringing Continues ]
[ Ringing Continues ]
\h\h\h\h[ Tires Squealing ]
[ Ringing Stops ]
HELLO, PET.
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
IT'S NOT VERY SMART
DRIVING AROUND THESE ROADS
ON A NIGHT LIKE THIS.
I'M NOT VERY SMART.
CALL IT OFF?
BETTER,
THOUGH I WOULD HAVE
BLITZED YOU.
I DIDN'T HEAR
THE CAR COME IN.
I HAD KIND OF
A CRACK-UP.
WHAT HAPPENED, BABY?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYOU HURT?
NO, I'M ALL RIGHT.
CAR'LL HAVE TO BE
TOWED IN THOUGH.
IT'S ABOUT TWO MILES
DOWN THE ROAD.
WE CAN WORRY ABOUT THAT
LATER. IS THERE A DOCTOR
ANYWHERE NEAR?
PLEASE BELIEVE ME.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
MATTER OF FACT,
I FEEL A LOT BETTER
THAN I HAVE IN WEEKS.
MAYBE THAT'S A GOOD WAY
TO GET CLEAR ON THINGS.
SHOCK TREATMENT.
WELL, IF YOU'RE SURE
YOU'RE ALL RIGHT,
LET'S ELECT A CHAIRMAN
AND GET ON WITH THE MEETING.
THE CAB IS DUE ANY MINUTE
TO TAKE ONE OF US
BACK TO THE STATION.
SEEMS TO ME
YOU'VE MADE A LOT OF PLANS
ALL ON YOUR OWN, YOU TWO.
WELL, THERE ISN'T GOING
TO BE ANY MEETING.
I KNOW WHAT I WANT.
YOU'RE BOTH GOING BACK
TO NEW YORK.
AND LEAVE YOU HERE ALONE
WITH NOTHING SETTLED?
BABY, YOU'VE GOT TO
STOP RUNNING AWAY.
I HAVE STOPPED RUNNING AWAY.
WELL, WHO HAS THE FLOOR?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWHO DO YOU THINK?
NOT NECESSARILY, HONEYBUNCH.
IN FACT, I YIELD.
WELL, IT DOESN'T MAKE
VERY MUCH DIFFERENCE
WHO SAYS IT.
DAN'S ASKED ME TO
GIVE YOU A DIVORCE.
I DIDN'T TELL HIM
TO DO THAT.
NO, IT'S HIS OWN IDEA.
BUT HE APPARENTLY HAD REASON
TO BELIEVE YOU'D GO FOR IT.
THEN WHY DID YOU
COME HERE, PETER?
TO HAVE YOU ASK ME
FOR IT YOURSELF.
I SEE.
\h[ Horn Honks ]
THAT'S OUR CAB.
I'LL BE OUTSIDE.
[ Door Opens, Closes ]
DAISY,
WE NEED A FRESH START.
LET'S GO TO NASSAU.
LET'S GO SOMEPLACE
WHERE WE CAN RELAX.
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
A LOT, BABY,
BUT WE'VE NEVER
GIVEN OURSELVES A FAIR CHANCE.
IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME
TO REALIZE IT,
BUT I KNOW NOW WHAT I WANT.
I'D GIVE UP EVERYTHING
FOR YOU, BABY.
[ Scoffs ]
AS A MATTER OF FACT,
I PRACTICALLY HAVE.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHE GIRLS?
IT WAS THE ONLY WAY
TO END THE THING.
YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE.
I COULD HAVE GONE ON.
I TOLD YOU.
YES, BUT I COULDN'T STAND
WATCHING WHAT THEY WERE
DOING TO YOU.
NOTHING WAS SO IMPORTANT
THAT I COULD LET THEM
TEAR YOU TO PIECES LIKE THAT.
AND IN THE END,
IT WAS WORTH IT TO FIND OUT
WHAT I REALLY WANTED.
LUCILLE WOULD HAVE
CALLED OFF
THE WHOLE BUSINESS...
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAND GONE BACK
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTO WHERE YOU WERE.
BUT IT WAS TOO LATE.
CAN IT EVER BE TOO LATE
FOR ROSAMUND AND MARIE?
DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?
IT'S ALL OVER, THAT MARRIAGE.
IT CAN'T BE OVER
AS LONG AS THE CHILDREN
ARE A PART OF IT.
MARRIAGE DOESN'T
BREAK UP THAT EASILY.
IT'S TOO LATE.
IT'S EVEN LATER
FOR US, DAN.
YOU SAID IT TOOK YOU
A LONG TIME TO REALIZE
WHERE YOU STOOD.
ME TOO.
BUT OUT THERE JUST NOW,
WHEN THE CAR WENT OFF THE ROAD,
THINGS SOMEHOW
GOT MUCH CLEARER.
IT'S A FUNNY THING
ABOUT BEING IN LOVE.
SOMETIMES IT'S EASIER
TO TELL WHEN YOU ARE
THAN WHEN YOU AREN'T.
I STOPPED BEING IN LOVE
WITH YOU A LONG TIME AGO,
DAN, BUT THE--
WELL, THE MEMORY
KIND OF LINGERED ON
AND KEPT ME MIXED UP.
WELL, WHATEVER YOU CALL IT,
LOVE OR ANYTHING ELSE,
IT WON'T BE OVER
TILL WE'RE DEAD.
WE'VE GOT TO KILL IT,
FOR GOOD.
I'M SORRY IF I LET
THE MEMORY MIX ME UP.
IT MIXED ME UP TOO,
I GUESS.
I WAS PRETTY SURE--
THE THINGS YOU PUT
UP WITH FOR MY SAKE.
IT NEVER
WOULD HAVE WORKED.
REALLY, DARLING.
BECAUSE WHAT YOU CALLED
WANTING ME WASN'T ANYTHING
MORE THAN...
WANTING TO RUN AWAY
FROM RESPONSIBILITY,
THE WAY YOU'RE DOING NOW.
GOOD-BYE, DAN.
GOOD-BYE, DAISY.
GO AHEAD.
HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
SAME AS YOU,
HONEYBUNCH.
GOING HOME.
THAT IS MY HOUSE IN THERE,
YOU KNOW.
AND MY WIFE.
[ Vehicle Departs ]
PETER?
YEAH, THAT O'MARA
PUT UP A GREAT FIGHT.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT FIGHTING?
WHEN IT COMES TO
MODERN COMBAT TACTICS,
YOU'RE BOTH BABIES
COMPARED TO ME.
