00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00The End
00:01:30The End
00:01:59Oh, don't bother about it. I don't know what I want.
00:02:02Anything wrong, sir?
00:02:03Yes, everything, Francois.
00:02:05Let me make you a mother.
00:02:08Don't help. It's just me. I'm feeling terrible.
00:02:18Good evening, Lord Huntington.
00:02:19Oh, good evening, already.
00:02:20Has Mr. Bliss arrived yet?
00:02:21I'm busy waiting for you in the bath.
00:02:23Oh, good.
00:02:23It's busy as ever, I see.
00:02:26Good evening.
00:02:26Good evening.
00:02:36Oh, hello, Rolly. What'll you have?
00:02:37Try a martini, please.
00:02:38Haven't those girls arrived yet?
00:02:40Not yet. Who cares?
00:02:41Come on, let's sit down over here.
00:02:44Look, Rolly.
00:02:45I got your note, but I'm blowed if I'll lend you a thousand pounds.
00:02:48Oh, never mind about that.
00:02:49I shouldn't have asked you, really, but you know how broke I am and you're rolling.
00:02:52No, it's not a question of whether or not I can afford it.
00:02:54The point is, it's too easy to lose one's friends, that way.
00:02:57Oh, well, let's forget it, shall we?
00:02:58I shouldn't like anything to spoil our friendship.
00:03:00Oh, don't let's talk about money anyway, Ronnie.
00:03:01I'm an ill man.
00:03:02Oh.
00:03:02Oh, no, I'm not kidding.
00:03:04It's on the level.
00:03:05I mean, something's wrong with me.
00:03:07Oh, well, if you're really feeling ill, why don't you let Sir James Alroyd have a look at you?
00:03:10Oh, Sir James Alroyd.
00:03:12He's a bit of a cranky old charge at 20 guineas.
00:03:14He's the best diagnostician there is.
00:03:15Oh, no, no, no.
00:03:16He's what?
00:03:17Don't ask me to repeat that.
00:03:19Anyway, he'll tell you what's the matter with you.
00:03:21He's the best doctor in London.
00:03:32Oh, snap out of it, public misery number one.
00:03:37Come on, let's go and eat.
00:03:38Yes, I'm hungry.
00:03:40All right.
00:03:41Here you are.
00:03:43Thank you, Mr. Fisk.
00:03:44Ernest, everyone's been admiring my bread sitting.
00:03:47Sweet of you.
00:04:02Sweet of you.
00:04:32I'm afraid you'll break out someday and tell one of them the truth.
00:04:53Lord Roberts, please.
00:05:00Just a moment.
00:05:02What is the matter here?
00:05:03My name is Bliss, Ernest Bliss.
00:05:05I had an appointment before 11 o'clock.
00:05:07I'm sorry, Mr. Bliss, but you were half an hour late.
00:05:16Sir James will see you now, Mr. Bliss.
00:05:18Rather difficult man to see, aren't you, Sir James?
00:05:32Not for those who are punctual.
00:05:36Any other complaints?
00:05:37Do you think I'd have waited an hour and a half if I hadn't?
00:05:40Oh, forget about that.
00:05:41What do you think's the matter with you?
00:05:43I don't know.
00:05:44That's why I came to see you.
00:05:47I can't eat.
00:05:48I can't sleep.
00:05:48I'm nervous.
00:05:50I never do anything and I'm always tired.
00:05:52Yeah.
00:05:53We'll just take off your shirt and lie down on that couch.
00:05:56There's nothing wrong with your blood pressure.
00:05:59Your muscles are a bit flabby, but your heart's quite sound.
00:06:03Well, then what's the matter with me?
00:06:05Money.
00:06:06Money?
00:06:07Is that something new to this?
00:06:08Hmm.
00:06:12In your case, it's a disease.
00:06:14Most people break down through overwork.
00:06:17Yours is caused by self-indulgence.
00:06:20Really?
00:06:21Is that so?
00:06:24You know, your father was a clever man.
00:06:26What are you looking for?
00:06:27My tie.
00:06:27You've got it on.
00:06:29Oh.
00:06:30But he made a big mistake when he left you two million pounds to play the fool with.
00:06:35Believe it or not, Sir James, I'm paying you 20 guineas to give me medical advice, not a lecture.
00:06:41My advice should be worth 50,000 pounds to you.
00:06:45I suppose I'm getting a bargain for 20, eh?
00:06:47Certainly, if you take it.
00:06:49What makes you think I wouldn't?
00:06:52No patient of mine in Harley Street ever has.
00:06:55Hmm.
00:06:56Sounds interesting.
00:06:57What is it?
00:07:01Well.
00:07:01Disappear for a time.
00:07:07Earn your own living.
00:07:08Live on a few pounds a week if you can make them.
00:07:11If not, go hungry.
00:07:13Do that for a year and I guarantee it'll make you fit.
00:07:17That's rather a tall order.
00:07:19Of course, a certain amount of moral stamina would be needed.
00:07:23Oh, you think I've no stamina, eh?
00:07:24Well, no heart, Phil.
00:07:29Good morning.
00:07:29Good morning, Mr. Bliss.
00:07:37You don't seem to like me.
00:07:38A medical man's time is limited.
00:07:40Besides, there's so much genuine suffering in the world that money would alleviate.
00:07:44If you'd visit my clinic in the East End.
00:07:46If you can spare the time.
00:07:48I'm being unprofessionally rude, perhaps, because of the fifth patient I've had here this morning,
00:07:53suffering from the same complaint.
00:07:54Too much money.
00:07:56Look here, Sir James.
00:07:57You just refuse to shake hands with me.
00:08:00All right, I'll make you an offer.
00:08:01Your clinic needs money.
00:08:03I'll bet you that 50,000 pounds you say your advice is worth,
00:08:06against an apology and an honest handshake,
00:08:09that I can take your advice and follow it to the letter.
00:08:13That should be quite a simple matter for you.
00:08:15Your bookmaker, your gunsmith, even your tobogganist might find you a job at a few pounds a week.
00:08:21Not at all.
00:08:22I'll set out with only five pounds.
00:08:24And without driving the slightest benefit from my name, money, or present position,
00:08:28I'll earn my living for a year.
00:08:31And if I do touch my own money, for my own use,
00:08:34you get 50,000 pounds.
00:08:36Big words, Mr. Bliss.
00:08:38Big promises.
00:08:39Big words, but I'm afraid I can't take them seriously from you.
00:08:47Before you gave me that look, there was a sporting chance you'd win.
00:08:52Now you're having the hope.
00:08:54Then the bet is off.
00:08:56No, the bet's on, and I'm going through.
00:08:58Which is it?
00:08:59Left.
00:09:00Oh.
00:09:09Here we are, Claude.
00:09:25Better take those heavy shoes along.
00:09:26Might have to do a lot of walking.
00:09:28Yes.
00:09:29I think it's about all now.
00:09:30I won't need these.
00:09:32No, sir.
00:09:34Tell me something, Claude.
00:09:35Well, is it true that the hardest job in the world is doing nothing?
00:09:39Yes, sir.
00:09:41Well, I'm afraid that's going to be your job for the next 12 months.
00:09:44Yes, sir.
00:09:45For 12 months?
00:09:46Then where do I send your trunks?
00:09:47Trunks?
00:09:48No, all I need is in their bag.
00:09:51Yes.
00:09:52For 12 months?
00:09:53Yes, sir.
00:09:54Yes.
00:09:57But of course, your dress clothes.
00:09:58No, I won't have any use for it.
00:10:00Oh.
00:10:02I'd better take a look around, see if I've forgotten anything.
00:10:04Yes.
00:10:09Oh, Claude.
00:10:10Sir.
00:10:11These Lyon-Yager cigars, keep them in condition, will you?
00:10:13They're the last of their crop.
00:10:14Yes, sir.
00:10:15Oh, and the wine.
00:10:17Especially the 84 port.
00:10:18I don't want that touched.
00:10:19Yes, sir.
00:10:25Your pocket, sir.
00:10:26Oh, yeah.
00:10:27Wait a minute.
00:10:30Now, look, Claude.
00:10:30What is this?
00:10:32I found notes, sir.
00:10:33Right.
00:10:34Now, you're a witness that this is all the money I'm taking with me, aren't you?
00:10:37Yes, sir.
00:10:38Fine.
00:10:38And your chickens.
00:10:40Oh, no.
00:10:41No, I won't need that for a year.
00:10:42At least, I hope not.
00:10:43Now, put it in the desk drawer.
00:10:45No, no.
00:10:45Don't bother me.
00:10:46If the bag's ready, take it downstairs and fetch me.
00:10:48No, no.
00:10:49Don't worry.
00:10:50I'll do it myself.
00:10:51I'd better start now.
00:10:52Oh, and, Claude, refer all letters and inquiries to Mr. Crawling.
00:10:57And I'll see you back here a year from now.
00:10:59And I hope you won't be as bored doing nothing as I've been.
00:11:02What exactly are you going to do, sir?
00:11:05Oh, that's exactly what I don't know.
00:11:07Well, goodbye, Claude.
00:11:11Thanks.
00:11:12Oh, that's exactly what I don't know.
00:11:42Oh, that's exactly what I don't know.
00:12:12Oh, that's exactly what I don't know.
00:12:42She's been out of work.
00:12:46And you know in me a bit.
00:12:47Well, we pay some rent, Mrs. E.
00:12:50And if we can't get Blitter's room, we move.
00:12:53You can't turn around in here.
00:12:55I can't turn him out into the streets, Mrs. Matthews.
00:13:25Oh, hello, Mrs. Heath.
00:13:30You feeling very tired, my dear?
00:13:33Like a cup of tea?
00:13:35Haven't you anything else to say to me, Mrs. Heath?
00:13:38Oh.
00:13:39I'm afraid you overheard.
00:13:42But don't let it worry you.
00:13:44Well, uh...
00:13:45Well, thanks for the mending.
00:13:47It's absolutely professional.
00:13:49They're good tenants, aren't they?
00:13:52Best I've got.
00:13:54Yes.
00:13:55Yes, I haven't paid my rent for two weeks.
00:13:58Not another word.
00:14:00If they goes, they goes.
00:14:03Well, that's all right, but you need the money.
00:14:06Never mind that.
00:14:08There's them that can pay and them that can't.
00:14:11And I knows one who can't.
00:14:24So, young man, you want to sell my Alphistos?
00:14:38That's right, sir.
00:14:41Miss Clayton, bring me that file of applications for this job, please.
00:14:45Yes, Mr. Masters.
00:14:50Oh, uh, Mr. Masters, why bother going through all those?
00:14:52After all, I'm here on the spot.
00:14:54And believe me, Mr. Masters, this is the first time in my life I...
00:14:58I've been without a job.
00:15:00You've been very lucky.
00:15:01But, uh, have you ever had one?
00:15:07Now, young man, 27 applications from travelers of experience.
00:15:12Why should I chuck all these and engage you?
00:15:15Well, look, Mr. Masters, let me tell you the truth.
00:15:20I've been walking around for weeks trying to get a job.
00:15:22If I don't get one soon, I'll starve.
00:15:24I've got to get this one.
00:15:30Oh, say, I got the job.
00:15:32I was afraid you would.
00:15:33Mr. Masters can't say no to anyone.
00:15:35Afraid I would?
00:15:36Say, I could sell stoves.
00:15:40What's your name?
00:15:41Oh, uh, Ernest Bliss.
00:15:43What's yours?
00:15:45Clayton.
00:15:48Start tomorrow, April 21st.
00:15:52Five percent on all sales and two pounds a week's salary, Mr. Bliss.
00:16:00Bring any orders to me and come to me before you're waiting.
00:16:02Thanks.
00:16:03Now, here's some catalogs and full details of the offer stole.
00:16:06Fine.
00:16:07Some price lists.
00:16:08And here's your order book.
00:16:10My what?
00:16:11Your order book.
00:16:13Oh, uh, order book, yes.
00:16:15Oh, you don't think much of me now, but you'll be surprised when I get started.
00:16:19Good-bye, Miss Clayton.
00:16:21Good-bye, Miss Clayton.
00:16:23I'm glad.
00:16:25I'm glad.
00:16:26I can't see you guys coming.
00:16:27Good-bye.
00:16:28I'm glad.
00:16:29I'm glad.
00:16:30You may be.
00:16:31I'm glad I am.
00:16:32Good-bye, Miss Clayton.
00:16:33This is the best place for you to wear.
00:16:36I am nothing for you.
00:16:37You may be.
00:16:38I'm glad you.
00:16:39I'm glad you're here.
00:16:40I am.
00:16:41I am.
00:16:42I am.
00:16:43And you'll be happy.
00:16:44You may be.
00:16:45I am.
00:16:46THE END
00:17:16Still empty.
00:17:25So you haven't got started yet.
00:17:29Oh, I know, Miss Clayton.
00:17:31But...
00:17:32But in the past three weeks, I've tried dozens of firms.
00:17:36And there's always some reason for not buying it.
00:17:38Either...
00:17:38Either the stove is too large or it's too small,
00:17:40or the price is too high or it isn't advertised enough.
00:17:43Or...
00:17:44Oh, well, maybe I'm just a rotten salesman.
00:17:48But I believe in the stove.
00:17:50It's a good stove.
00:17:51My luck will change.
00:17:52You look very tired.
00:17:54Let me make you a cup of tea.
00:17:58That's awfully kind of you.
00:18:00I thought you didn't like me.
00:18:02Business has nothing to do with personal feelings.
00:18:06May I help you?
00:18:07I'm worried about Mr. Masters.
00:18:16His life savings are in these stoves.
00:18:19Oh, bad as all that, huh?
00:18:20Yes.
00:18:21We'll have to close down shortly.
00:18:22Oh, I'm sorry.
00:18:24I feel sort of partly to blame, you know.
00:18:26Oh, you mustn't say that.
00:18:28You did your best.
00:18:30What do you do now?
00:18:32Do you do it with your parents?
00:18:34No, my mother and sister live up north.
00:18:36I stay at a girls' club.
00:18:38Pretty rotten life for you, isn't it,
00:18:39being cooped up in an office like this?
00:18:41Oh, it hasn't been so bad.
00:18:43At least I've had my job.
00:18:45So you're having me to hold on to.
00:18:48Well, if I don't get another quickly,
00:18:50I'll have to start hinting to my friends
00:18:51that I need free meals.
00:18:53Well, that isn't so good, isn't it?
00:18:57Free meals?
00:18:58Yes, if I can get any.
00:18:59Wait, that gives me an idea.
00:19:00Five hundred pounds.
00:19:04Right.
00:19:05So this means that Aldroyd gets his fifty thousand pounds.
00:19:09What?
00:19:10Because you've lost your bet.
00:19:11Oh, after all I've been through for the past four weeks,
00:19:13do you think I'm going to quit now?
00:19:15The bet was that you'd live on what you could earn yourself
00:19:18without using your own money.
00:19:19Yes.
00:19:21For my own benefit.
00:19:22That was the bet.
00:19:23I'm not touching this.
00:19:25It's for someone else.
00:19:26Look, here's what I have left from my last week's wages.
00:19:31And here's what I'm living on.
00:19:32Good heavens.
00:19:34Yes, it's just about enough for one meal, too.
00:19:36Good heavens.
00:19:37Good heavens.
00:19:38Good heavens.
00:19:39Good heavens.
00:19:40Good heavens.
00:19:41Good heavens.
00:19:42Good heavens.
00:19:43Good heavens.
00:19:44Good heavens.
00:19:45Good heavens.
00:19:46Good heavens.
00:19:47Good heavens.
00:19:48Good heavens.
00:19:49Good heavens.
00:19:50Good heavens.
00:19:51Good heavens.
00:19:52Good heavens.
00:19:53Good heavens.
00:19:54Good heavens.
00:19:55Good heavens.
00:19:56Good heavens.
00:19:57Good heavens.
00:19:58Good heavens.
00:19:59Good heavens.
00:20:00Good heavens.
00:20:01Good heavens.
00:20:02Good heavens.
00:20:03Good heavens.
00:20:04Good heavens.
00:20:05Excuse me.
00:20:07You can't come to the sweater.
00:20:09You should get behind the queue.
00:20:11I'm here on business.
00:20:13I want to see the manager.
00:20:15Where is he?
00:20:17Oh, he has a desk, sir.
00:20:19All right.
00:20:21Good morning.
00:20:23Oh, good morning.
00:20:25I'm the buyer from Elements, Limited.
00:20:27Oh, well, well, uh,
00:20:29you want you to sit down?
00:20:31I'm the buyer from Elements, Limited.
00:20:33Oh, well, uh, why don't you sit down?
00:20:37Oh, Miss.
00:20:39Will you tell the chef I tasted this?
00:20:41I find it excellent, and to serve it out to the people.
00:20:43Yes, sir.
00:20:45Pretty enterprising, all this.
00:20:47Oh, yes. Well, it's just a little idea to straighten our retail trade, you see.
00:20:53Ah, you're wholesale.
00:20:55Well, of course, that's, uh, that's hardly in our line.
00:20:59If you'll excuse me a moment, I have a couple of other buyers waiting for me.
00:21:02Oh, wait a moment.
00:21:03Surely you can spare me just a couple of moments to show me the stones.
00:21:06Well, uh, yes, yes.
00:21:08I suppose it could be done.
00:21:09Come this way, will you?
00:21:19Hiya.
00:21:20This little ventilator.
00:21:21It's patented, of course.
00:21:22Yes, yes.
00:21:23The, uh, master's patent.
00:21:24Uh-huh.
00:21:25Uh-huh.
00:21:26Oh, uh, Miss.
00:21:27Would you mind telling the two gentlemen that are waiting for me the, uh, two buyers?
00:21:30And I'll join them in just a moment.
00:21:35Now, there's, there's no reason to divide the business between a dozen firms.
00:21:38Well, of course, uh...
00:21:39We might be able to manage your entire output.
00:21:42Oh.
00:21:43In the meantime, uh, I'll order a hundred.
00:21:46A hundred?
00:21:47Well, I'm, I'm sorry, but that's all I can at the moment.
00:21:50Oh, uh, no.
00:21:51Uh, yes.
00:21:52Usual trade terms.
00:21:53Uh, well, uh, look, look, look, old man.
00:21:56I, I wish you'd wait and see Mr. Masters himself.
00:21:58He'll be along in just a minute.
00:22:00All right.
00:22:01While we're waiting, I'll write the order.
00:22:02The, uh, the order.
00:22:04Oh, yes, the order.
00:22:06You know, it's so noisy around here.
00:22:07Uh, my, uh, order book.
00:22:09Yes.
00:22:10Oh, yes, I'll get it.
00:22:18Oh, look at that.
00:22:19Look at that.
00:22:20My first order.
00:22:21What?
00:22:22Oh, uh, in, in, in the new book.
00:22:24I see.
00:22:25Here we are, sir.
00:22:27Oh, it's Mr. Masters now.
00:22:29Mr. Masters, I want you to know the cheap pirate elements.
00:22:31Mr. Masters.
00:22:32Good morning, Mr. Masters.
00:22:33What's the meaning of all this and bliss?
00:22:34Well, elements have just placed a little order for one hundred stones.
00:22:37One hundred?
00:22:38Well, it's only a trial order, of course.
00:22:40Don't we?
00:22:41Well, I've already explained that we're really not interested in wholesale business.
00:22:45You must appreciate, Mr. Masters, that if we can get together, we can take at least 40,000 a year.
00:22:50Certainly.
00:22:51Mm-hmm.
00:22:53But, no, we haven't.
00:22:54Oh, no, no, no.
00:22:55Mr. Masters, we can at least consider the matter.
00:22:57We'll think it over.
00:22:59I know you're busy at the moment, so I'll call at your office tomorrow.
00:23:02Good morning.
00:23:03Good morning.
00:23:04Look at that.
00:23:06But where'd you get all the money to run this place?
00:23:10Well, I'm coming to that.
00:23:11It's, uh, I borrowed 500 pounds on your behalf from a young fool I know who, uh, has more money than is good for him.
00:23:19So here's what's left of it, and his solicitor will send you a bill.
00:23:23Oh, uh, by the way, may I?
00:23:25I'm a trifle short I had to hire this suit.
00:23:28That's right.
00:23:29I owe you commission on a hundred stoves.
00:23:31Yes, well, Mr. Masters, I'm afraid I can't take that.
00:23:34You see, I have to leave your employ.
00:23:37What do you take me for?
00:23:39You saved me from going under.
00:23:40No, no.
00:23:41You stay on here as a partner.
00:23:43Mr. Bless, you can't leave now.
00:23:46Please don't.
00:23:47Well, I'm afraid I must.
00:23:52These are my own clothes in here.
00:23:54Goodbye, Mr. Masters.
00:23:55Don't be silly.
00:23:56There's big money in this.
00:23:57I'm offering you a partnership.
00:23:59That won't take no for an answer.
00:24:01I've got to have a look around this place.
00:24:04Miss Clayton, this isn't goodbye for us.
00:24:08It's all too insane.
00:24:10Yes, I suppose it seems so.
00:24:12But look, when I'm settled in my next job,
00:24:15can I call you up and take you to dinner or a show or something?
00:24:20Well, there's no use prolonging the agony, is there?
00:24:23Goodbye.
00:24:40Oh, I'm one.
00:24:45We need to follow you, sir?
00:24:46Yes, wait a minute.
00:24:47Here we are.
00:24:50How's the chicken?
00:24:51Oh, it's very nice.
00:24:52Oh, you didn't say that, anyway.
00:24:53Two chickens, huh?
00:24:55All right, and...
00:24:56Yes.
00:24:57...spumonis.
00:24:58Oh, spumonis, yes.
00:24:59Two spumonis and two cofins.
00:25:01Two spumonis and two cofins.
00:25:03That's right, how do you like yours?
00:25:04Blacks?
00:25:05Blacks.
00:25:06All right, two cofins.
00:25:07Let's try this.
00:25:08It's a marvelous wine.
00:25:10I hope you're all right.
00:25:13You should have phoned me sooner.
00:25:15Even if you hadn't found work, I could have paid for the dinner.
00:25:19Do girls pay for dinners?
00:25:21I hadn't thought about it.
00:25:23Well, I might not have bought you the wine.
00:25:25Yes, but this is a celebration.
00:25:28To your entrance into the cabbage business?
00:25:30Oh, no, no. To our first dinner together. Here's the bus.
00:25:35Ah, but it's good.
00:25:37It's lovely.
00:25:38So cheap. My goodness.
00:25:39I thought it would taste like red ink.
00:25:41Friends, it's magic.
00:25:42Yes, it's your magic, too.
00:25:43It's you who turned this cheap wine, this cheap food, into a feast for the gods.
00:25:56I have an idea. He's done that for us.
00:25:58For you.
00:25:59If the signorina and the signorin would like to dance,
00:26:02it would give José the greatest pleasure.
00:26:05Oh, thanks.
00:26:07It's funny. That line may be a dance tune.
00:26:09Best tune I ever heard.
00:26:10Come on, let's do something about it.
00:26:12I'm leaving, Mr. Martin.
00:26:15Oh, really? Why?
00:26:16For the same reason you did.
00:26:17What do you mean?
00:26:18Well, you turned him down, so he wants to make me a partner.
00:26:21A partner?
00:26:22Oh, the old scoundrel.
00:26:23Oh, I don't think so.
00:26:24Rather fond of him.
00:26:25Well, he wants to marry you, eh?
00:26:26Well, he wants to marry you, eh?
00:26:27Well, it makes it rather awkward.
00:26:28Two of us in the same office.
00:26:29Yeah.
00:26:30But look, Frances.
00:26:31What did a fellow like that offer a young girl like yourself?
00:26:32Security.
00:26:33I don't know.
00:26:34I don't know.
00:26:35I don't know.
00:26:36I don't know.
00:26:37I don't know.
00:26:38I don't know.
00:26:39Well, what are you going to do?
00:26:40The same thing you've been doing.
00:26:41Look for something else.
00:26:42Good girl.
00:26:43It's not so easy, you know.
00:26:44Two hours in the same office.
00:26:46Yeah.
00:26:47But look, Frances.
00:26:48What can a fellow like that offer a young girl like yourself?
00:26:51Security.
00:26:53I don't know.
00:26:56Well, what are you going to do?
00:26:58Same thing you've been doing.
00:27:00Look for something else.
00:27:02Good girl.
00:27:04It's not so easy, you know.
00:27:14Well, your driving test was satisfactory.
00:27:34But driving isn't everything.
00:27:38What we want is punctuality and service.
00:27:40Yes, sir.
00:27:42Oh, er, er, what about my livery, sir?
00:27:45The uniform will cost ten pounds.
00:27:47Oh.
00:27:48We supply it, you pay for it out of your wages.
00:27:51A pound a week, to me.
00:27:53Very good, sir.
00:27:56Report at seven in the morning.
00:27:58Yes, sir.
00:28:09Hello.
00:28:11Do you get the job?
00:28:12Oh, sure.
00:28:13Sure.
00:28:14I thought you would.
00:28:15Of course, old Mike's uniform will just about fit you.
00:28:16Here.
00:28:17Can't smoke here, you know.
00:28:18Thanks.
00:28:19Against the rules.
00:28:20Wait a minute.
00:28:21What was that about Mike in the uniform?
00:28:22Oh, he got the sack after six weeks.
00:28:24They always do.
00:28:25But must never let some stay here.
00:28:27I thought there was something wrong.
00:28:28Something wrong?
00:28:29Of course there is.
00:28:30You don't think I've got the thing to bits for nothing, do you?
00:28:32No, no.
00:28:33I don't suppose you have.
00:28:40Okay, what the blazes do you think you're doing?
00:28:41I sound terribly sorry, sir, but I didn't know she'd backed into this space.
00:28:44Why did you look where you were going?
00:28:45What kind of driving do you call that, anyway?
00:28:48Ernest.
00:28:49Ronnie!
00:28:50Willard!
00:28:51How are you?
00:28:52Okay, what do you mean by giving us a slip like that?
00:28:54Yes, well, I thought I'd better drop out of sight for a while.
00:28:57I said, oh, man, don't misunderstand me, but if a five is any use to you for old times' sake.
00:29:01You know, Ronnie, that's funny.
00:29:03Because the last time we met, I refused to help you.
00:29:05Yes.
00:29:06You should make me feel pretty ashamed about that.
00:29:08Honestly, I thought you were Rowley.
00:29:10No, Ronnie.
00:29:12Nice of you, but put it back in your pocket.
00:29:15And thanks.
00:29:16Okay.
00:29:17Hey, Ronnie!
00:29:19Oh, excuse me, ma'am, please.
00:29:22Don't stand there arguing with that chauffeur.
00:29:25It's Ernest.
00:29:26Yes.
00:29:27He's working as a chauffeur.
00:29:28Why?
00:29:29I'd like to speak to him.
00:29:34No, wait for me.
00:29:36I'd like to speak below.
00:29:37Oh, very well.
00:29:42Ernest.
00:29:45Where?
00:29:46Oh, you're with Ronnie, huh?
00:29:49Yes.
00:29:54Well, perhaps you'd like to engage a good chauffeur.
00:29:56At your service.
00:29:58It wasn't very nice of you to chuck us all just because you had bad luck.
00:30:02Yes.
00:30:03Well, uh, Claire, a chauffeur's wages, you know, hardly...
00:30:06I know.
00:30:07A chauffeur's wages for a whole year wouldn't buy one of the things you gave me.
00:30:10No, I'm afraid you're right.
00:30:11Of course, there's always the tips.
00:30:12You mustn't forget the tips.
00:30:13You haven't changed.
00:30:16Goodbye, Ernest.
00:30:17Bye-bye.
00:30:18Goodbye, Ernest.
00:30:19Bye-bye.
00:30:20I can't understand it.
00:30:21They both came after lunch from Bortier.
00:30:22The one I left in his car last night and this one.
00:30:23His twin brother.
00:30:24Now, I've got one to tell you.
00:30:25When I was dressing this evening, a bank messenger came to the door of my flat...
00:30:27and left a package with ten dollars.
00:30:28I can't understand it.
00:30:29I can't understand it.
00:30:30They both came after lunch from Bortier.
00:30:31The one I left in his car last night and this one.
00:30:33His twin brother.
00:30:34Now, I've got one to tell you.
00:30:35When I was dressing this evening, a bank messenger came to the door of my flat...
00:30:36and left a package with ten dollars.
00:30:37one hundred-pound boats in it.
00:30:38A thousand pounds?
00:30:39Hmm.
00:30:40You know, it's a funny thing.
00:30:41When I offered Ernest a fiver yesterday, he reminded me that he once refused to lend me a thousand.
00:30:45I can't understand it.
00:30:46I can't understand it.
00:30:47They both came after lunch from Bortier.
00:30:48The one I left in his car last night and this one.
00:30:50His twin brother.
00:30:51Now, I've got one to tell you.
00:30:52When I was dressing this evening, a bank messenger came to the door of my flat...
00:30:54and left a package with ten one-hundred-pound boats in it.
00:30:57A thousand pounds?
00:30:58Hmm.
00:30:59You know, it's a funny thing.
00:31:00When I offered Ernest a fiver yesterday, he reminded me that he once refused to lend me a thousand.
00:31:06It doesn't make sense.
00:31:08It certainly doesn't.
00:31:21I knew you couldn't resist a call like that.
00:31:25But it's twenty miles out.
00:31:27Do you need the gloves?
00:31:28No, thank you.
00:31:29Oh, I don't know.
00:31:30Perhaps you'd better pop them in.
00:31:31I'll telephone your chauffeur.
00:31:32No, no, no.
00:31:33Don't wake him up.
00:31:34Bring up the garage.
00:31:35We hired a car from last time.
00:31:42Hello.
00:31:43Yes.
00:31:44Pick up who?
00:31:46Oh, Dr. Aldroy.
00:31:48Yes.
00:31:49Nineteen Dock Road, Poplar.
00:31:53Very good.
00:31:55Smith.
00:31:56Sir.
00:31:57Take this and go to...
00:31:58But it's my night off, Mr. Edwards.
00:32:00Oh, very well.
00:32:01Send Bliss for the dangle.
00:32:02Yes, sir.
00:32:08You'd better get home as soon as you've cleared up, Miss Mills.
00:32:10Good night.
00:32:11Good night, Sir James.
00:32:15My secretary told you where to go.
00:32:16Yes, sir.
00:32:17Make the best time you can.
00:32:19I am.
00:32:21It's a very urgent case.
00:32:22Yes, sir.
00:32:23Yes, sir.
00:32:49Crisis definitely passed.
00:32:51Nothing for you to worry about now, Mr. Dankton.
00:32:53Thanks to you, Doctor.
00:32:55She said you'd come if I sent you a wire.
00:32:57I... I didn't believe you would.
00:32:59Hmm?
00:33:01I don't know what to say.
00:33:03And as for the fee...
00:33:05Oh, there's no fee.
00:33:07I will just get back and have some sleep.
00:33:09Set in Harlesby.
00:33:19You're a good driver. Sorry to have kept you up so late.
00:33:21I, uh...
00:33:23I'd rather have a handshake than this tip, Sir James.
00:33:27Why not both?
00:33:29Oh, no.
00:33:31No, I haven't won that bet yet.
00:33:33What the devil do you mean by that?
00:33:35Well, it'll be, uh, seven months next Tuesday.
00:33:37And believe me, the first seven months are the hardest.
00:33:39Oh, no.
00:33:41No, I haven't won that bet yet.
00:33:43What the devil do you mean by that?
00:33:45Well, it'll be, uh, seven months next Tuesday.
00:33:47Believe me, the first seven months are the hardest.
00:33:51Good night, sir.
00:33:58Well, I'll be...
00:34:17for a while.
00:34:18It's a little bit too.
00:34:19Come on.
00:34:26Thank you, sir.
00:34:34Fancy, look.
00:34:35Supposing you had a lot of money.
00:34:38Well, supposing you won a sweepstake.
00:34:40What would you do, huh?
00:34:42I'd never win a sweepstake.
00:34:43sweepstakes. You might.
00:34:47Well, if I did,
00:34:49I'd clothes.
00:34:52Rooms full of clothes.
00:34:55And I'd have a big car,
00:34:57chauffeur.
00:35:01If you want all those things,
00:35:03sir, baby,
00:35:04the master's is doing all right now, isn't it?
00:35:08Yes.
00:35:08My friend from the theater play for the signorina?
00:35:16You're a darling.
00:35:17Seppi, you know you won't turn to this place,
00:35:18not just be head waiter here.
00:35:20Oh, what I could do.
00:35:23Francis.
00:35:26Tell me.
00:35:29You wouldn't marry a fellow without a bean
00:35:31just because you liked it, would you?
00:35:35No.
00:35:38Oh, I was just wondering.
00:35:40I sort of thought it would be fine if you're good.
00:35:47I won't need you any longer.
00:35:49Very good, sir.
00:35:50But, uh,
00:35:51I want to see you.
00:35:53Yes, sir.
00:35:54Can you make it Thursday morning?
00:35:56Ten o'clock?
00:35:58Yes, sir.
00:35:58No.
00:35:59My flat.
00:36:00Eleven regions park gate.
00:36:02Eleven regions park gate?
00:36:04Yes.
00:36:05Flat six.
00:36:08Did, uh, did you say flat six?
00:36:13Yes.
00:36:28Come along.
00:36:29Come along, my dear fellow.
00:36:31Sit down and make yourself comfortable, Mr.
00:36:33Uh, what's your name?
00:36:35Uh, Brown.
00:36:37Brown.
00:36:37Edward Brown.
00:36:38Brown.
00:36:39Say, that's a very nice cigar you're smoking.
00:36:43Yes.
00:36:43Tip top condition.
00:36:47Not many of them left.
00:36:49I'm sorry to hear that.
00:36:51You should worry.
00:36:52Uh,
00:36:53have a glass of port.
00:36:56Thanks.
00:37:00You do yourself pretty well, don't you, Mr. Dorrington?
00:37:03That's AB4 port, too, isn't it?
00:37:05Yes.
00:37:07So good, it's a pity to drink it.
00:37:09Oh, yes.
00:37:10I agree with you there.
00:37:15How do you like this place?
00:37:17Oh, it suits me fine.
00:37:19Belongs to a young fellow.
00:37:21He's traveling around the continent for a bit.
00:37:23Left his man in charge.
00:37:25Poor fellow having nothing to do.
00:37:27You're betting on the dogs.
00:37:29So he lets it to me for a fiver a week.
00:37:33Tell me, where is this man now?
00:37:35In his room, drinking whiskey.
00:37:38Oh, I see.
00:37:38You fellas drink the port and he drinks the whiskey.
00:37:41Well, that's right.
00:37:43But we all smoke his cigars.
00:37:45Oh, that's fine.
00:37:46Just one big happy family.
00:37:47Yes.
00:37:49You have a cigarette.
00:37:51Dare to have a look around?
00:37:53Yes, I'm glad.
00:37:53It might be very interesting.
00:37:55Yes.
00:37:56Of course, since I took possession, I've improved this place a bit.
00:38:00Oh, that.
00:38:00Look at this.
00:38:03Bought this little fellow myself.
00:38:04The Caledonian Market.
00:38:06Tasteful, isn't it?
00:38:07Oh, yes, indeed.
00:38:07Makes you think.
00:38:09And look here.
00:38:11He's short for thousands, his butler tells me.
00:38:13Oh?
00:38:14And the silly fellow kept it in the hall.
00:38:16It's the chef Dover of his collection.
00:38:18I moved it in here right away.
00:38:20Yes, well, look, Mr. Darrington, I don't mean to appear inquisitive or anything, but after all, why did you ask me to come here?
00:38:28I'll show you.
00:38:29Oh, well, I don't know.
00:38:38Anything strike you about that?
00:38:41What do you mean?
00:38:44That's Ernest Bliss.
00:38:45The fool who owns this place.
00:38:47Notice any resemblance to yourself?
00:38:51Well, yes, now that you mention it, I suppose there is.
00:38:56What does a man like you do for 10,000 pounds?
00:39:0010,000 pounds?
00:39:02Well, practically anything short of murder.
00:39:05Good boy.
00:39:07Then we understand one another.
00:39:08Quite.
00:39:09Now, let's get together.
00:39:12I've been practicing Ernest Bliss's signature for months.
00:39:15Found his bank books in that drawer.
00:39:17How much do you think he's got on current account?
00:39:19Oh, I haven't the slightest idea.
00:39:21160,000-odd.
00:39:24160,000-odd?
00:39:25Isn't it simple to think of all that money lying idle.
00:39:30No one to use it.
00:39:32Well, what are we going to do about it?
00:39:35This.
00:39:36Mm-hmm.
00:39:38Pay cash 30,000 pounds.
00:39:42Ernest Bliss.
00:39:45Are you going to cash that?
00:39:46No.
00:39:47You are.
00:39:49Oh, that's the big idea, huh?
00:39:52Well, what makes you think I can get away with it?
00:39:55Well, once you're dressed up in one of Bliss's suits,
00:39:58the bank will pay out all right.
00:40:00Simple, isn't it?
00:40:01Yes, it's so simple.
00:40:02What's to prevent me walking away with the whole lot?
00:40:04I am.
00:40:08Now go and get dressed.
00:40:09I'm coming with you.
00:40:20Don't you think it'll look better to stay here?
00:40:26Good morning.
00:40:27Haven't seen you in a long time.
00:40:28Good night to see you again, Mr. Bliss.
00:40:32It's a large amount, isn't it?
00:40:33Yes, quite.
00:40:39Excuse me, Mr. Bliss, but did you sign this yourself?
00:40:43Why do you ask?
00:40:45Well, it seems absurd since you present it.
00:40:47But if this check came through in the ordinary way,
00:40:49I'd say it was forged.
00:40:51Congratulations.
00:40:52You know your job.
00:40:53Mr. Bliss, what is the meaning?
00:40:54I have no time for explanations now.
00:40:56I'll tell you what to do.
00:40:57Get some old papers, shut them into an envelope,
00:40:59and pass them out to me quickly.
00:41:00I've watched.
00:41:05Well?
00:41:06Everything all right?
00:41:07Have you got the money?
00:41:08Hey, relax.
00:41:09Say, take it easy.
00:41:11Everything's fine.
00:41:12Perfect.
00:41:12Say, this fellow's grand.
00:41:14It was so easy.
00:41:15Say, it was just like taking candy from a kid.
00:41:17You couldn't have found anyone better.
00:41:19Hey!
00:41:20Keep your hands off that gun.
00:41:23You're trying to double-cross us?
00:41:26No, I'm not trying to double-cross you.
00:41:28You fellas made a mistake, that's all.
00:41:29You're very lucky that for reasons of my own,
00:41:31I'm not calling in the police.
00:41:32Now get out of here.
00:41:34What do you mean?
00:41:35Watch the game, Brown.
00:41:38I'm not Brown, I'm Bliss.
00:41:39You know, the fool that owns this place.
00:41:42Say, how do you like that?
00:41:44And why did you cash that check?
00:41:47Well, as you seem to have found out,
00:41:49I kept quite a lot of money in that account.
00:41:51I just wanted to know whether the bank
00:41:53would recognize it for its signature or not.
00:41:55Come on, Fred.
00:41:56Think of something better.
00:41:58All right, you don't believe I'm Bliss?
00:42:01If I can get Clouds away from that bottle,
00:42:02he'll prove it to you.
00:42:03Why do we care who he is?
00:42:05I tell you, he's got that money.
00:42:07Come on.
00:42:09Give it to us.
00:42:10Yes, that's right.
00:42:15Hand it over, Brown.
00:42:17All right.
00:42:20What happened?
00:42:21Get out of here.
00:42:45Oh, my God.
00:43:15Oh, my God.
00:43:45Oh, my God.
00:44:15Oh, my God.
00:44:45Oh, my God.
00:44:46Oh, my God.
00:44:47Oh, my God.

00:44:50Oh, my God.
00:44:51Oh, my God.
00:44:52Oh, my God.
00:44:53Oh, my God.
00:44:54Oh, my God.
00:44:55Oh, my God.
00:44:56Oh, my God.
00:44:57Oh, my God.
00:44:58Oh, my God.
00:44:59Oh, my God.
00:45:00Oh, my God.
00:45:01Oh, my God.
00:45:02Oh, my God.
00:45:03Oh, my God.
00:45:04Oh, my God.
00:45:05Oh, my God.
00:45:06Oh, my God.
00:45:07Oh, my God.
00:45:08Oh, my God.

00:45:27Oh, my God.
00:45:28Oh, my God.
00:45:29Oh, my God.
00:45:30Oh, my God.
00:45:31possibly if we get on together.
00:45:34I hope we shall, Mr. Montague.
00:45:38Mr. Montague said he needs me to take notes
00:45:40for some very important deal.
00:45:42Yes, but dear, I know something about that place he's taking you to.
00:45:46Oh, but Ernest, dear, I can't afford to lose my job.
00:45:49Besides, I can take care of myself.
00:45:51You know, I've got a funny feeling that your employer's car
00:45:54is going to develop engine trouble.
00:45:56Oh, so that's why you wanted to know where he kept his car?
00:45:59Uh-huh.
00:46:00Well, he can always hire a car.
00:46:02Yes.
00:46:03And he'll tell his secretary to hire one for him, see?
00:46:06Stupid.
00:46:07Come on.
00:46:08Good evening, Mr. Montague.
00:46:09Everything's ready.
00:46:10Oh, good.
00:46:11First hand for the time, by the day, miss.
00:46:12Oh, well, leave it on the table there.
00:46:13And get yourself a drink.
00:46:14Thank you, sir.
00:46:15Will you go ahead, Miss Clayton?
00:46:16Thank you, sir.
00:46:17Will you go ahead, Miss Clayton?
00:46:19Good evening, Mr. Montague.
00:46:20Everything's ready.
00:46:21Oh, good.
00:46:22First hand for the time, by the day, miss.
00:46:23Oh, well, leave it on the table there.
00:46:24And get yourself a drink.
00:46:25Thank you, sir.
00:46:26Will you go ahead, Miss Clayton?
00:46:27Good evening, Mr. Montague. Everything's ready.
00:46:30Oh, good.
00:46:31First, I'll put the tag by there, miss.
00:46:32Oh, well, leave it on the table there.
00:46:34And get yourself a drink.
00:46:37Will you go ahead, Miss Clayton?
00:46:47Capable fellow, that chauffeur you've got for me.
00:46:52Doesn't warm in here, isn't it?
00:46:54Won't you sit down, Miss Clayton?
00:47:00Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:06And I'll order you a cocktail.
00:47:08Shall I serve the caviar, sir?
00:47:10Oh, put it on the table.
00:47:11Thank you, sir.
00:47:13Now, if you'll excuse me for a moment, my dear.
00:47:16I'll just go and see if my business frames have come.
00:47:19Certainly, Mr. Mulligan.
00:47:26I'll do it.
00:47:27Let's go.
00:47:28Sure.
00:47:29Sure.
00:47:30Yes, sir?
00:47:31How would you like to earn a fiver?
00:47:34Very much indeed, sir.
00:47:35Well, tinker about with your engine
00:47:38and after dinner, come and report to me.
00:47:42Report what, sir?
00:47:43Well, that your car's broken down, and there's no train back.
00:47:48You've just heard there's a big belt of fog between here and London,
00:47:52and there's no chance of getting back to town tonight.
00:47:56You won't forget, will you?
00:47:58Leave it to me. I won't forget.
00:48:00Smart fellow.
00:48:05Oh, dear, dear, dear.
00:48:07Most annoying.
00:48:09My friends have been held up with the fog.
00:48:12Don't matter, my dear.
00:48:14We'll have a little dinner here together, eh?
00:48:17Just the two of us, before returning to town.
00:48:21I don't want to be late, Mr. Multicute.
00:48:23I have to be early at the office.
00:48:25Oh, that's all right, my dear.
00:48:27Come along, come along.
00:48:30Tonight we'll forget the office.
00:48:33Sit here.
00:48:35That's right.
00:48:37Now, leave that. I'll see to it.
00:48:41Very good, sir.
00:48:43Ah, that's beautiful, Caviar.
00:48:47Now the fun's going to start.
00:48:50How right you are.
00:48:58Come along, Francis. We're leaving. I'm taking you back to London.
00:49:00How dare you, you insolent!
00:49:02Shut up. Come on, dear.
00:49:04I shall report you to your manager.
00:49:06Shut up.
00:49:07Wait for me in the car, dear.
00:49:08Carry out of here at once.
00:49:13Eat your caviar.
00:49:23You have the cheek to want your wages up till last night, eh?
00:49:26You can consider yourself lucky Mr. Montague didn't have you up for assault.
00:49:29Oh.
00:49:30I suppose my last four days' pay goes into your pocket, huh?
00:49:33No, it does not.
00:49:34And that uniform's not paid for. Return it.
00:49:36Yes.
00:49:37And the poor fellow that gets my job inherits this uniform and pays you a pound a week for it.
00:49:41If you don't return it, I'll summons you. Get out.
00:49:43But, Mr. Edwards, if this Montague was feeding that girl that way,
00:49:46blistered the only thing a decent man could do. Mind your own business.
00:49:49No, thanks, Bill. Keep out of it. It's my funeral.
00:49:52As a matter of fact, Bronson, your work's been slacking off lately.
00:49:56You can take a week's notice yourself.
00:49:58Oh, now, look here. I'll go. He's got nothing to do with this.
00:50:00Besides, he's got a wife and two kids. You can't sack him.
00:50:02Oh, can't I?
00:50:05Look here. When this garage belongs to you, my lord,
00:50:08I'll accept orders from you. But not before.
00:50:11Wait.
00:50:13That's the first sensible thing I've heard you say.
00:50:16So long, Bill.
00:50:23No, no, Crawley. Don't argue about the price.
00:50:25I'll take the Sun Motor Highway place at that figure.
00:50:28And look. When you close the deal, fire Edwards.
00:50:31Edwards. He's the manager in charge now.
00:50:34And give his job to a mechanic named Bill Bronson.
00:50:37No, Bronson.
00:50:39No, no, no. B-R-O-N-S-O-N.
00:50:42Right.
00:50:44I'm gonna get that bus driving job in the morning. They promised it to me.
00:50:51Besides, everything's gonna be changed in a few weeks.
00:50:56I, uh, I had a dream the other night.
00:51:00Yes, I dreamt about, uh, Cinderella.
00:51:03I was the fairy godmother, and the prince all rolled into one.
00:51:08Hey, you're absolutely good for nothing.
00:51:12I let my family down. I give up everything I ever wanted.
00:51:17If I marry you?
00:51:19What you're going to, dear?
00:51:22You think I must be crazy?
00:51:24You know, Frances, I only made two serious bets in my whole life.
00:51:29I'm gonna win them both.
00:51:31What are they?
00:51:32Well, the first one doesn't matter, but the second one I made after I met you.
00:51:35Yeah?
00:51:36Mm-hmm.
00:51:37I bet myself I'd make you marry the stove salesman, the greengrocer's assistant, the chauffeur.
00:51:42And...
00:51:43You win your best.
00:51:48Oh, what a fool I am.
00:51:51The money and all those things don't matter.
00:51:54They don't exist.
00:52:01Because I love you.
00:52:09Telegram for Miss Clayton. Any reply?
00:52:11Just a moment, please.
00:52:24It wasn't fair to let me tell you this before I knew you were out of work, Frances.
00:52:34If the doctor says Helen can't live, unless she's taken to a winter resort...
00:52:40You did quite right to come to London and tell me.
00:52:43After all...
00:52:46I'm her sister.
00:52:48You can't do any more about it than I can.
00:52:59It was only a crazy dream.
00:53:02Dreams don't come true.
00:53:04Not for people like us.
00:53:07It'll be all right about Helen. I'll send her to Switzerland.
00:53:10But you say, Julie.
00:53:11But I know where I can get a job.
00:53:12From a man who's very fond of me.
00:53:15He's a good man, Mother.
00:53:20Fine man.
00:53:22He wants to marry me.
00:53:23But I know where I can get a job, from a man who's very fond of me.
00:53:29He's a good man, Mother.
00:53:32A fine man.
00:53:34He wants to marry me.
00:53:53No, Miss Caton is left here.
00:54:07A new address.
00:54:09I'm afraid I don't know it.
00:54:24It's been two weeks.
00:54:25Not a word.
00:54:27They don't even know it's the place she lived where she's gone.
00:54:29She took her things with her.
00:54:31If you spend all your time looking for this young lady,
00:54:33I presume you've left your employment on that bus.
00:54:36Of course, of course I have.
00:54:37But if you draw money from me, and buy her jewels, dresses and things like that,
00:54:42what about your bet?
00:54:43Only a few more days.
00:54:44This is a matter of 50,000 pounds.
00:54:46Well, all right then. Pay I'll draw this 50,000 pounds.
00:54:49Don't you see, if I go through with this bet, it may lose me Francis.
00:54:52Can't you understand that?
00:54:53I'm afraid I can't.
00:54:55Well, I wanted her to take me the way she thought I was.
00:54:59Poor.
00:55:00And that wasn't fair to her, was it?
00:55:02So you're going to lose 50,000 pounds just to satisfy this girl?
00:55:08Oh, what's the use of talking to you about love?
00:55:11Very little, no doubt.
00:55:13A good young lady disappear like this if there weren't some other interests?
00:55:16Nonsense.
00:55:17She loves me.
00:55:18She said so.
00:55:19I know she does.
00:55:20There's never been anybody else.
00:55:21She wouldn't do that.
00:55:22She couldn't do that.
00:55:23Whatever that may be, I rather fancy that is just what she has done.
00:55:28Oh, I think it's a bit good time.
00:55:29I think it's a bit good time.
00:55:30I think it's a bit good time.
00:55:31I think it's a bit good time.
00:55:33Is Miss Clayton work here?
00:55:34Yes.
00:55:35But she usually doesn't come in until about 10.
00:55:36Now she's back with Mr. Masters.
00:55:37Look at her.
00:55:38Here.
00:55:39What are you after?
00:55:40When you see Miss Clayton hang this sign up.
00:55:41Now don't worry about it.
00:55:42It's a little joke about it.
00:55:43I'll be at the outside door and don't you let her see you do it.
00:55:47Hello, Frances.
00:55:48Hello, Frances.
00:55:49What?
00:55:50I was afraid you'd find her.
00:55:51What?
00:55:52I was afraid you'd find her in some way.
00:55:53I know.
00:55:54Hold up.
00:55:55I think it would continue to run away.
00:55:56I've not seen anything.
00:55:57I see her in some way.
00:55:58I've seen her in some way.
00:55:59Any case?
00:56:00We may have something in some way.
00:56:01Don't worry about it. It's a little joke about it.
00:56:03I'll be at the outside door and don't you let us see you do it.
00:56:14Hello, Frances.
00:56:18I was afraid you'd find me.
00:56:20What's the matter? Why won't you look at me?
00:56:28I'm going to marry Mr. Masters.
00:56:32Goodbye, Ernest.
00:56:35What a miss.
00:56:36Oh, dear me. Not working.
00:56:38Oh, that is tough luck, isn't it?
00:56:40Oh, it's like the stairs, too.
00:56:42Same old office?
00:56:45Frances.
00:56:46Really, I've hunted everywhere for you.
00:56:48I even gave up my job to look for you.
00:56:50Probably the last one I'll ever have.
00:56:57Won't you go for me?
00:56:59You're only making it harder for both of us.
00:57:01Well, remember Browning's poem, The Last Ride Together?
00:57:03Why can't we have a last walk together?
00:57:07But, Frances, let me get this clear.
00:57:10Why do you say it'll only make it harder for us?
00:57:13Oh, fool.
00:57:14Was it because you knew if you saw me you couldn't, uh, couldn't go back to Masters?
00:57:23Oh, please, don't I?
00:57:25Two people like us having an earthly job.
00:57:28Not together we have.
00:57:29Tell me.
00:57:30Are you in love with this stow king?
00:57:37No answer.
00:57:38So you're marrying him for his money, eh?
00:57:43Yes.
00:57:45Now will you go?
00:57:46No. What made you change your mind?
00:57:47Frances, we found something together worth more than money.
00:57:51I can't let you go thinking that about me.
00:57:57Listen in.
00:57:59It isn't for myself.
00:58:01My sister's seriously ill.
00:58:03And this is the only possible way I can help her.
00:58:06Oh, darling, why didn't you tell me so before?
00:58:09Well, you had your own worries and there wasn't anything you could do.
00:58:13Yes, but don't you see? I thought you were doing it for furs and jewels and cars and all that kind of stuff.
00:58:21Well, they wouldn't have mattered.
00:58:24You do see why I have to do it, don't you?
00:58:27For Brian.
00:58:37Let me go now.
00:58:39We're only making it worse.
00:58:41No, Frances.
00:58:42I've got to talk to you.
00:58:45Diamond bracelets.
00:58:47Three vanity bags.
00:58:49Two rings.
00:58:51One pair of diamond earrings.
00:58:53One diamond brooch.
00:58:55One diamond hair tip.
00:58:57One jewel case.
00:58:59Twelve sets of lingerie.
00:59:00Is there for you?
00:59:02Is there for you?
00:59:03Oh,?
00:59:07We are not toげ back.
00:59:09See you next week, myETH.
00:59:11Now, now that you own that restaurant, don't forget, never charge more than the usual one and six for dinner.
00:59:19And if ever you see a young fellow with a young girl and they sing hard up, throw in the wine and charge it to me, will you?
00:59:25Si, si, senor. Mille, grazie. Your word is my love.
00:59:31Dear old Ernie Biss, never knew the difference between accommodating and deprivation.
00:59:37Hello, Clare. How are you? Hello, Ronnie.
00:59:39Hello, Ernie. Thanks so much for what you did. Make it a couple of thousand next time, will you?
00:59:43I see there is a Santa Claus, Ernie.
00:59:45Ah, yes, well, Clare, I wouldn't mention that if I were you. There's somebody coming along who might not like us, you know.
00:59:49All right. Come and meet some friends, a mother.
00:59:51Mrs. Mott. Miss Winton. Lord Horton.
00:59:53Gentlemen, Miss Winton. Lord Horton.
00:59:59Hello, dear.
01:00:01It was you who sent the money.
01:00:03Oh, sir, I...
01:00:05I can't say no words.
01:00:07Oh, now, now, Mrs. Heath.
01:00:10You were very kind to me.
01:00:12You taught me much.
01:00:13Look, you've worked very hard.
01:00:15I just wanted to know that you've taken care of for the rest of your life.
01:00:18God bless you, sir.
01:00:20Oh.
01:00:21Si, Sammy.
01:00:22Come on over here.
01:00:23Sit with Mrs. Heath.
01:00:24Look out for her.
01:00:25She has a way of stealing into people's hearts.
01:00:27Buonasera, commentate. Va bene.
01:00:33And my apologies.
01:00:38Although I lost my bet.
01:00:40Only by three days.
01:00:42You win.
01:00:43You've carried out my prescription to the letter.
01:00:46And I can't accept your cheque.
01:00:48Well, Sir James, that's an academic point.
01:00:51You see, you'd have had your 50,000 pounds anyway.
01:00:55I decided that the night I drove you out to the country.
01:00:58Oh, please, my man, I...
01:01:00And now that you're all here, my friends, you have been so kind to me during the past.
01:01:05I want you to meet my wife.
01:01:11Francis.
01:01:12You ready?
01:01:13They're all waiting for you.
01:01:20Darling.
01:01:21You're crying.
01:01:27What's the matter, baby?
01:01:28Cinderella didn't cry in the story.
01:01:34But she would have in real life.
01:01:37I'm too happy not to cry.
01:01:39Too happy.
