Five minutes! Full house, kids. How are you feeling? I just want to tell you one thing. When you step out there, remember you're not one of them. You dance for them. Don't dance for yourself, Tony.

Got to go! - Where are you going? - lf l don't get out, I'll explode. - Are you sure you don't want to stay? - l can't.

- Great walk. How are you, Margaret? Freddie, where's my order? Coming up. Some of your groupie friends are here. - Who? - Those friends of yours. - They're acquaintances. - How about sharing the wealth? - Am I your booking agent? - You don't want to share? I don't need your hand-me-downs. - Have you got emotional prob...
Guys like you aren't relationships, you're exercise. - Why do you have to go? It's only six. - I want to get something going today. - Don't you want to stay for breakfast? - No, I'm not hungry. - What's wrong? - Nothing. I just want to get something going today. - You will. - I'll see you later. - I'll miss you. - You...
Yeah, whatever. It's like you're invisible. They make you feel like you're wasting your time. What's really weird is that they all sound like my father used to. Why be down on yourself? You know what you can do. - What about you? - What about me? You've been doing choruses for six years. Don't you want to do something ...
It's an inside joke. - Tony! - Hey, Jackie! You were great! - Are you sure? - I'm positive. You was fantastic. - I was nervous knowing you were here. - You shouldn't have been. - Are you sure I was OK? - You were great. - I'll change. Will you wait? - Yeah. - I'll meet you outside. - Sure, why not? Hi. Yes? I wanted...
- Thank you, but I already know that. - Say what? I already know. I used to be incredible myself when I lived in Brooklyn. - Really? What happened? - I moved to Manhattan. So, where exactly are you imported from? The vicinity of England? - Very good. - See? I know. - So what do you do? - I'm sort of into telling the...
Really! No, I'll get him. I got her here. She's nice. No problem. You'll love her. Come on... Wait! Well, come on. - It didn't happen. - Imported, indeed! - How are you doing? - Strong draught in there, huh? - Come in. - You nearly broke my face with the door. I'm giving you my best come-ons and you try to mangle my...
Maybe we could have a drink, maybe have some dinner. And... But someplace informal, because my suits are all being pressed. Well, thank you but I have to go home early tonight. - We're auditioning for the new show. - Are you in it? - Definitely. Are you a dancer? - Yeah, couldn't you tell? Oh, of course. Why don't yo...
- Yeah. You'll audition, won't you? Why not? Rejection's a hobby now. Oh, listen to you! Small world, isn't it? Goodnight. - Goodnight. - Goodnight. Do you know her? - Just informally. - How did you meet her? She was passing. I said she was an OK dancer. You told her she's OK! - Something to that effect. - She's a gr...
If it did, you'd be Einstein. Jackie, I'm not trying to make you jealous. You're a good dancer. - What can I say? - Don't play these games. - What games? - I'll see you tomorrow. Come on, I don't even know her! Are you sure you don't want something to eat? Manero, you've got a way with words! Very good. Excellent! Ju...
- So do you. - Listen up! If you've finished dancing, move off stage! You're always causing trouble. Get out of here! OK, now get ready. Joy, count it down. OK, music! That's good. That's enough, thank you. We need pictures, résumés, phone numbers. We'll get back to you. You were all excellent, but I only need two. Tha...
- What? If you appreciate me and I appreciate you, how about getting together and we could appreciate each other? - Appreciate? - Yeah, like for many hours. I have a singing lesson I'll have to cancel. That's all right. I got a dance class I'd have to cancel. And then I'd have to cancel my manicure. I'd have to cancel...
And with my past, I don't respect many people. - But I do respect you. - Oh. Thank you. And when you dance, oh, man, I could watch you for hours. Really! - It's like watching smoke move. - I know. It's like you've done something with your life. You're significant. I think it's time we said goodnight. - What's wrong?...
Oh, no! Oh, Tony, you don't think that, do you? Do you? It's just until tomorrow. - Hello? - Jackie! Tony? Where are you? I'm making sure the streets are safe for women and children. - Somebody"s got to do it. - Are you OK? - Great! Are you alone? - What? Are you alone? Is there a vacancy next to you? - There's a va...
Turn down the radio! I got it? You're kidding? - That boy is crazy. - When do I start? What time? Where? All right! Thank you! Thank you! I'll be there! Way to go, Manero! - Hello? - Ma. Tony! Well, it's about time I hear from you. Guess what? I got a job on Broadway! You got a job on Broadway? Doing what? - Dancin...

- I got this on my own? - Yes. - Really? - Really! - All right! That singer and you were harmonising a little too well. - He's just a friend. - Why is he staring at you like that? - Come on, Tony, don't. - No, really. - He's staring at you. - What is wrong with you? I don't know. I just don't like guys like that. - You...
- How are you doing? - I'm fine. But you look like you're freezing. - No, no. - We all set? Mark, this is Tony. Tony was just hired to be in the show. Good. - Would you like a drink? - I've got to be going. All right, I'll see you at rehearsals then, and get out of the cold before you crack. Nice meeting you. Two, two,...
- But I... Shoot me. Shoot me twice. - It's all right, really. - I got hung up. What can I say? You don't have to say anything. When you say that, I know you want me to say something. - OK, what do you want to talk about? - I don't know. What about you? It's the lovers, the young lovers. - I've got to get going. - ...
- It was nice. - Nice, everyday! Like breakfast? I usually skip breakfast. Look, I'll see you later. - I'm talking to you! - I said later. - Come here! - Take your bloody hands off me! Do you think I'm some little groupie? We met, I liked you, we made it. What do you think it was? True love? You think I used you! Wha...
- Are you sure you'll be there? - Definitely. We'll go out. - What, Christmas carolling? How did you know? All right! I'll see you later. - No talking to strangers. - Nobody's stranger than you are. See you. Tony. I'm having a few friends around tonight. A pre-Christmas party. Like to come? Didn't we just have a fig...
To do what? I was wondering where you were. You look nice. - You do, too. - Thank you. What would you like to drink? We have champagne, wine, whisky... - I don't believe this. - What? - Now you're with the director. - I'm not with anybody. - Haven't you learnt anything? - What do you mean? Are we in school? Why don't ...
And I'm expecting someone else. Why did we even start this thing up, huh? Start? Look, you came to me, remember? - You did nothing? It was just me. - Whatever. Anyway, I'm freezing out here. If nothing else, you'll have an interesting chapter for your diary. You know the way out. Merry Christmas. I can"t take all the ...
A little bit of heartache And we"re like islands in the stream Watching all our dreams start to fade Fading away Start to fade Fading away Start to fade Fading away Fade away - Jackie, I'm sorry. - I don't want to see you tonight. I just forgot to call you. I'm really sorry. I know, but you can't treat me like this any...
- Can I get you something else? - No, I'm full. - Have another piece of pie. - No, really, I'm full now, Mom. Come on, have another piece. I made it special. OK, to hell with it, then. Put it away, have it for lunch, who knows? You know, it's weird... This house seems so much smaller than when I used to live in it. Wha...
- I don't believe this. - Believe it! I don't believe it! And don't get fresh with me! This attitude you're talking about... That's what got you out of this damn neighbourhood. You don't need to apologise. You must have done something right. So you're saying I've always been this bastard, but it's all right because it ...
So, let's try to be sensual. Try it. You might like it. Once again. - What do you think? - She's good. - What about him? - He's good, but he's too mechanical. - What are you doing later? - I've got commitments. - You do? - Yeah, I do. - You don't. - You don't think I have other plans? - No. - Well, you're wrong. - I c...
I mean, it's becoming a regular thing with you. - That bad, huh? - That bad. - So what are we doing here? - I wanted to ask you a favour. - What favour? - Could you meet me here tonight? - No, I don't think I can. - I will owe you for life if you do. I know I treat you bad and I got terrible manners. But so did the peo...
- He plays rhythm guitar at the club. - Rhythm guitar? That's the worst! Everybody knows you can't trust a guy who plays rhythm guitar. Underneath the curls, he's a pervert. I can feel it. Did you take funny pills today? - How did you get in here? - The window. - You amaze me. - I don't like him. - Looks like a dement...
I want to try Butler's routine. I want to ask Jesse to have a shot at replacing him. - You're kidding? - No. You think I can do it? - I think so. - Well... do you want to help me? - I think so. - Let's go. - I think you're a little jealous. - No way. - Walk you home? - No, it's OK. - Sure? - Positive. Thanks anyway. ...
Just checking. - So what do you think? - No, it's what you think. - You think I ought to try it? - You've got the routine. - But is it good enough? - Yeah. - Is it? - Yeah. Well... Goodnight. Goodnight, Jackie. Hey, Jackie, wait a minute. I want to say something to you, but it's really hard because... I'm just not us...
- Nope. You're fine. - I think I can do it. - Do what? - You're being unreasonable! - I won't jeopardise my career... - Nor will I. - He's an amateur! - I want you to try it with him! - You've been taken in... I haven't. Now try it, and keep your personal feelings out of it! Let's go. OK. - Butler, sit this one out...
- You walk out now, you're over! - What would you do? - I'm not the one who's on the line. - I don't want anybody laughing at me! - Who are you, somebody special? I give you a chance for a Broadway lead and you walk out! - Who cares? - Nobody has to care! I don't have to care about you, or you about me. If you want to ...
Again! Yes! Again, Tony, again! Five minutes! Five minutes! Five minutes! Full house, kids. How are you feeling? I just want to tell you one thing. When you step out there, remember you're not one of them. You dance for them. Don't dance for yourself, Tony. The show will work, you'll be terrific. - You warmed up? - Yep...
He's very good. Spots four and five, standing by. Standing room only, guys. How are we doing? We're ready. - Black out the curtain warmers. - Curtain warmers to black. - They're out. - Give me a white spot. Spot is go. Hang on there, Manero, hang on. Perfect! Go to black! You bastard! Why don't you teach him some manne...
You want to fight, do it on your own time! The show is the thing, not you! - You remember that! - I'll remember that. Tony! Tony! I wanted to apologise for this. - I don't know what came over me. - It was nothing. Forget it. - Could we get together after the show? - Why? I just want to talk, clear things up. I've go...
Come on! Where did he learn to do this? Excuse me. Excuse me. Goodnight. Got to go! - Where are you going? - If I don't get out, I'll explode. - Are you sure you don't want to stay? - I can't. I want you to know I could have never done this tonight without knowing you. - Do you know what I want to do? - What? Strut! ...
I have no parents, ma'am. How long have they been dead? Since I was a baby, ma'am. Can you read and write? Yes, ma'am. And sew? A little, ma'am. I hope you will be a good child. Go with Miss Miller now. Yes, ma'am. That is the bedtime bell. We have no time for idleness here. You will learn to live by the bell. Yes, Mis...
Silence, girls. It's like rotten potatoes. Pigs get better than us. This is abominable. I'd like to make Mr. Brocklehurst eat the whole lot. Girls! You will be punished if you are disrespectful to our benefactor. To your classes! Miss Miller, I have a word to address to the pupils. Be seated everyone. You had this morn...
To the garden. Is your book interesting? I like it. What's it about? Emily. There are no pictures. I like wild, mysterious stories with pictures. Do you want me to go away? I did want someone to talk to. Why do they call this an institution? Is it different from other schools? It's partly a charity school. You and I ar...
16... 1610? Wrong. Burns. 1625, Miss. Someone must have prompted you. No, Miss. Ha. I refuse to believe a word you say. And I insist on you holding your head up. I will not have you standing before me in that attitude. Pay attention, girls. His first favourite was the dashing George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham, who ...
Hardened girl. Nothing will correct you. Take the rod back. Jane, you dropped my skein. Jane, what is the matter with you? If she'd struck me with that rod I should get it from her hand and break it under her nose. Probably, you would do nothing of the sort. If you did, Mr. Brocklehurst would expel you. It is far bette...
I shall give you drawing lessons myself. Oh, thank you, ma'am. And I think you are capable of learning French. I shall speak to madame Pierrot. - You may go. - Thank you, ma'am. But there was one visitor to Lowood of whose arrival I was in constant dread. Let the classes continue. Back to work, girls. Madame Pierrot. M...
You are not being most economical. If you were, I should have no need for complaint. As it is, I must direct you to trim your cloth by one quarter. Your directions shall be attended to, sir. It is the new pupil. I have a word to say respecting her. Fetch that stool. Girl. Stand upon it. Face the classes. Miss Temple, t...
Helen, why do you keep friendly with a girl whom everybody believes a liar? Jane, you are mistaken. After what Mr. Brocklehurst said? He is little liked here. Besides, Jane, if all the world hated you, you would not be without friends. But I cannot bear to be alone and hated. Jane, you think too much of the love of hum...
He came to see me after... I know something. I shall write to him. And if his reply agrees with your statement, well, we shall know what to do. Helen, how are you tonight? Have you coughed much today? Not quite so much, I think, ma'am. And the pain in the chest? It is a little better. You 2 are my guests. I am neglecti...
I have inspected the dormitory, and once more, your drawer was a disgrace. "...he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake..." you will wear that until bedtime. Take your seat. Yes, Miss. "...for thou art with me. "Thy rod and thy staff will comfort me. "Thou preparest a table before me "in the pres...
You are fortunate in your protector, child. Let the classes resume. Well, Jane, I know that you will work harder than ever to prove your merit. I will, Miss Temple. I would not leave Lowood now for Gateshead and all its luxuries. It was typhus. Overcrowding, lack of sanitation, semi-starvation, and previously neglected...
I was a pupil there for 6 more years, and as for the 2 years which followed... Please, Miss Eyre. Shh. Miss Eyre, please, Miss Eyre. Very well, Mary. B-o-u-g-h. Bough of a tree. B-o-w. Bow. Very good. I'm very pleased with all of you girls. Now I would like you to learn the next 10 words in your book for tomorrow. Tha...
Hooray! With Miss Temple's departure, I tired of the routine of 8 years in one afternoon. I longed for change, for liberty, or, at the very least, a new servitude. What do people do to get a new place? Apply to friends? I have no friends. Or advertise. A young lady accustomed to tuition is desirous of meeting with a si...
Your Honor, my name is Mrs. Lila Loomis. I have a petition here signed by 743 people against Norman Bates' release, including the relatives of the seven people he murdered. Doesn't that give me the right to speak out? Has the District Attorney advised Mrs. Loomis about her rights in this matter? Yes, Your Honor. I expl...
No, no. It'll... It'll wait. What's the matter? Uh, I saw someone. Where? L-ln that window. They haven't had a tenant in the house for years. I guess I'm just nervous. Well, that's understandable under the circumstances. Yeah. Well, this is it. Yeah. You don't have to stay here, you know. I could find you a place in ...
I had the phone reconnected. Any trouble, use it. Okay. Thanks, Doctor, for everything. Mother? Norman. Norman, what did you put in my tea? I'm gonna get you for this, Norman. I'm gonna show you what happens to bad little boys who poison their mothers. I'm going to kill you! Can I help you? I'm Norman. Norman Bates. T...
Get him an apron, will you, Mrs. Spool? Scott, we have to talk about it sometime. Step on it, would you, girl? You're being paid to wait on tables, not gab on the phone. Look, I'll call you back later. We'll talk then. We're getting ready for rush hour. He's really very nice once he catches his breath. Hey, Queen for ...
And one baked potato. Okay, go ahead, go ahead, do it. See if I care. No, no, Scott. I didn't mean it. Listen to me. Hello? Hello? Bastard. You all right? Of course I'm all right. Where you going? Into town. Will you please leave me alone? If you're going into town, you're heading in the wrong direction. Look, I... ...
See if somebody'll let me crash with them for the night. What about your parents? Uh, couldn't you stay with them? They're in Portland. And they don't care what happens to me, anyway. Oh, uh, I own a motel not too far from here. And you'd be welcome to spend the night in one of the empty rooms if you'd like. F-FOC, of ...
Well, let me get you a room key. Mr. Toomey. Why don't you wait here while I check the room? Uh, just to make sure the linen's fresh. What you thinking about stealing something? There's no reason to be scared, sweetheart. I manage this dump. What do you want, a room? Norman's already getting me one, thank you. You're ...
Yeah. Boy, this town. If it isn't the parents, it's the kids. I caught a couple of them screwing' in the basement of your house up there last week. Of course, I threw them right out. Can you believe that? What kind of a motel are you running here? The kind that makes money. People come here to party. They stay a few ho...
Hi! What was all the yelling about? Oh. My motel manager and I just had a fight. Wasn't because of me, was it? No. Why are you sitting in the dark? I was just thinking about Scott. Maybe if I hadn't blown up at him so quick, we would've worked things out. Yeah, maybe. L... I don't know. Is that, uh, better? Do you thi...
Terrible. I found out why he didn't want me to come home tonight. Oh, well, why? He's got somebody new. He's moved her in already. Well, that's no good. Oh, well. Think how it would've been if I'd married him and then found out what sort of guy he was. He asked me to, you know? Sure. L... I mean, I'm sure he did. Oh...
L... I just moved back here after being many years away. I forgot to bring any cu-cutlery. That's odd. People usually leave something, even if it is only an old butter knife. Oh, there. Is something wrong, Norman? Um, aren't you going to eat? No. L... I... I... I just suddenly lost my appetite, but you... you... y...
Why? I don't mean to hurt your feelings or anything, but Myrna was talking about you at the diner today. Mrs. Spool kept on telling her to shush but she wouldn't. She said you'd been locked up. Did she say why? Well, I'll tell you. When I was 12, my mother went mad, so I put some poison in her tea. You know? Just... I...
Not that one. This one over there. What's wrong with this one? Well, that, uh, used to belong to my mother. But she's dead, isn't she? Yeah. Is this the room where you had your troubles? One of them, yeah. Well, I don't know what happened to you in the past, but you're never gonna get over it, not unless you face it. S...
I'm sorry I missed you this morning. I got up early and went into town to see my girlfriend. You know, the one I was telling you about. Guess what? What? We're going to room together. Well, y-y-y-you... you're more than welcome to stay with me, you know. Thanks, but I'd really rather live in town. Oh, in town, yeah. Uh...
Why don't you look at a menu and I'll be right back? What happened between you and that man last night? I fired him. Oh, great, he's on my station. What did he say? Nothing nice and I think he's been drinking. He sure smells like it. Hey, you do have other tables, honey, or do you want me to wait on those, too? Talk ab...
Are you talkin' to me, whacko? Come on. Come on. Come on! Huh? What's wrong? Oh. Oh, that's... that's beautiful. Go on, psycho, pick it up. Come on, pick it up! What's the matter, you lose your nerve, huh? Or do you only attack women, huh? Go on, pick it up! Show us what you're really like. Come... Come on, loony. ...
It's there on the wheel. There's nothing here. Look, Norman, you're tired. Why don't you take the rest of the afternoon off? I'm telling you, it was right there. Sure it was. Don't humor me. I'm telling you there was a note on that wheel from my dead mother. Okay, everybody, business as usual. Hi. Is that offer to room...
She makes great fudge. Well, thank you. What about that note? You figure out who sent it? That was just a practical joke. Yeah, I guess so. Oh, oh, oh, l-let me take that. No, no, no, that's all right. I can manage. Uh... Did you... Did you have dinner yet? Yes. And I'm exhausted. I'm going to bed right after I take...
Bill! Hi, Bill. I wasn't expecting you till tomorrow. Hi, Norman. I got a call from Mr. Statler. He said you quit your job at the diner. Yeah. Well, I just figured I could make more money with the motel. You know, once I get... once I get it back into condition that is. What does Mr. Toomey think about your plans? Hi...
We're just, uh, we're just friends. Mary. Hi, Mary. You look great. Look, this is, uh, this is Dr. Raymond. He was my psychiatrist in the institution. Hello. Hi. Well, what do you think? About what? What Norman's doing. Has he told you his plans for the place? Some of them. Well, I have to be going to work. Can I giv...
Sorry, Doc, I can't do that. This is Fairvale, California, not Washington, DC. But I can check around and see who might hate Norman enough to do something like that. Anything else? You could keep an eye on Norman. I have been. All right, Sheriff, here's my card, in case you should need me. Oh, there is one other thing....
Come on, hurry! Come on! Look out, behind you! Norman? Norman? Norman? Mary, up here. What are you doing up here? L... I was locked in. You couldn't have been. There's no key in the lock. Someone unlocked it while I was asleep. Who? Whoever's been pretending to be my mother. Norman, what are you talking about? I saw h...
Miss. - Yes, sir? - I'd like to see a copy of a long wire that I sent to The New York Record late last night or 2:00 or 3:00 this morning. - Are you sick, mister? - The wire, please. Yes, sir. Well, let's see: The New York Times, The New York Herald Tribune. The New York Record. The greatest golf story of the decade, ...
I bathed them in Alka-Fizz. Well, anyway, it's a beautiful morning. Look. Isn't it lovely? May I make a suggestion? Why don't you jump into a swimsuit and take a quick plunge? - May I make a suggestion? - What? You take a plunge. Sorry. I guess you're not feeling very sociable. Here, I've been waiting all morning. Why...
- Yes, sir? - If you think... - Mr. Hagen? New York is calling. - Where? - You can take it in that booth there. Now, listen, Mr. Hagen. Listen.... I had to stay, if only to straighten Mr. Hagen out on a few facts. - Mike Hagen here. - Mr. Hagen? Ned Hammerstein of The New York Record calling. Yeah, put him on. - Hell...
Nothing, Ned. Everything is great. Well, everything is not so great back here. That column you did on Mart Daylor and the fight racket. He was here twice about a retraction, he's plenty burned. Fine, fine. Good morning. - Are you listening to me? - Certainly. Why? I want to remind you, my friend that Mart Daylor kno...
It's nothing that would interest you much. It was a story that... You mean the "Johnny Strawn, the Gill-Sized Giant of Golfdom" story? - How did you know? - We wrote it together. The two of us. Where? In a very small and quite dirty bar and grill about 40 miles north. - You wired the story from Santa Barbara. - Then t...
Then I was at Mrs. Herrington's when you came in with friends. Yeah, Mrs. Herrington. - Yes. - Yeah. Who's Mrs. Herrington? We began to laugh. Three hours later, we were still laughing. - How about dinner? - I'm afraid not. I'm on a 6:00 plane to New York. Thanks anyway, though. Here, you earned it. By helping me writ...
- Well, just offhand... - California, the playground of the West. It's all around us: The mountains, the desert, Marineland, the Pacific Ocean. - Don't forget the Pacific Ocean. - I won't. Tell me, have you ever sailed in a small boat way out on the ocean with the salt spray in your face and the wind in your hair? - N...
I can't possibly. Come on. Welcome to Marineland of the Pacific, the world's largest oceanarium. I can't remember who first brought up the subject of love. It certainly doesn't sound like me. One minute I was experting on the care and feeding of porpoises and the next thing I knew, we were talking about love. its symp...
We were married that night, in Arizona. Do you, Marilla, take Michael to be your lawfully wedded husband to love and to cherish.... After a honeymoon of exactly 20 and a half hours, we flew to New York our arms locked the whole way. Except for breakfast. Marilla needed two hands for that. Ladies and gentlemen, it's exp...
You'll love it. Open up. Take a look. I took a look. First thing I thought of was my little brother's shoebox in which he used to keep all his possessions. Old string and marbles and bits of colored glass. The prospect of taking up permanent residence in the shoebox was somewhat unnerving. But I didn't want to hurt Mik...
Right away. How do you like that? I'm back in town 20 minutes. That's all right. I've got plenty to do here anyway. - Mike? - What? - You're not in any trouble or anything? - You mean that? No. What's the matter? It's just occurred to me. I don't know you very well, do I? But well enough. Maybe. How about this? Our f...
Luke Coslow, the office boy, came up with a real side-splitter. Quiet. Here you are, old man. Ready-made. Saves time and trouble. Bachelor days are gone forever now. But I must say, my editor, Ned Hammerstein, was very sentimental. You're eight days late. I'll take it off your vacation, provided you get one. Meanwhile...
What do you want me to do? - Print a retraction? - I don't care what you do. What am I, a sentimental slob? Do what you want. Just make sure your by-line doesn't appear in the obit column. Okay, Ned. Wait. Here. From Nora and me. A wedding present. - From Nora and... - Well, from Nora. You liked it at the house, she t...
"There'll be a change in the weather and a change in the sea. From now on there'll be a change in me. My walk will be different, my talk and my name. Nothing about me's goin' be the same. I'm gonna change my way of living. If that ain't enough Then I'll change the way I strut my stuff. Because nobody wants you when you...
My boss, Ned Hammerstein.... - Look, how about lunch? - I'd love it. It'll just take me a minute to change clothes. We went to Andrucci's, our old hangout. And we ordered our old favorite. Ravioli Andrucci. He hadn't gotten around to confessing his marriage and was making a botch of the small talk. ...when I walked int...
I heard all about her eyes, and her hair, and her figure and the way she walked. I heard all about her fine sense of humor and her clothes and the cute way she had of tilting her head when she laughed. ...tossing her head when she laughs, sort of like a pony. After a while, I knew her like a sister. Anyway, I'm so glad...
- I still don't think he's here. Yes, he is. I just remembered. - This way, please. - Thank you. He's right over there. Well, what a small world. You don't mind if I don't get up? - Shy about kissing in public? - No. Your office told me you might be here and I wanted to see you anyway. Big news: I've got everything m...
You haven't been listening. Your clothes are at my place. Yes. Fine. - You shouldn't have done it. - I'm sorry. I'd have wagered a Lily Daché hat there'd been another woman at that table. But I wasn't going to ruin my second day of marriage with petty jealousies. For some reason, I'd pictured Marilla living in a one-r...
Be careful. You might find some ravioli in the pockets. And here. Put this in a place of honor. Our first wedding present. Oh, no, it isn't. It's the second. - Well, what do you mean? - Look. A coffee table! I don't have to read it, I know. "You always wanted this table, but you wouldn't marry me to get it so, here w...
Fred Sellers, Marie Dozier, Dottie Weaves, Florrie Canfield, Mr. Orjac. My husband. Ann Ashmond, Jennifer Dean, Jeff Dowling Pauline Beaton, Sheldon Stevens. This is Michael. All right, sweetheart, let's get it over with. Congratulations. Let's have the whole story, right from the beginning. Old-fashioned romance.... C...
There must be quite a story someplace in those pants. A pretty dull one, I'm afraid. If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a surprise party. Listen to them. If I were you, I'd throw them all out, myself included. Who are they? Now, let's see. There's one actor, one playwright, one composer two actresses, a televis...
You're loaded? Just prodigal. This place keeps me broke. There was the inheritance from Dad. It's all gone now. - Where do you come from? - That's a funny question. St. Louis. Miss Brown of the St. Louis Browns. How did you hear of us? We weren't that rich. I didn't. It used to be a baseball team. I was making a jok...
Except when men give me $700. I make jokes, too. You like this place? I always thought I did. I hoped you'd like it, too. That's why I tricked you into spending the night here. And you like designing clothes? I love designing clothes. It's a silly, ridiculous business and it pays far too much money. And you meet silly,...
Do you smell something burning? It's just the sauce for the ravioli. For a whole month, we were as happy as birds. I didn't know anything about the designing business and she didn't know anything about sports. During the day, we lived in two separate worlds, about five miles apart. And at night, we made a world of our ...
