- Sure.

- Good morning, darling.

- Good morning, Ted.

I couldn't sleep a wink last night.

I kept making plans about us.

You know the first place we are going

when we arrive in New York?

No.

I'll give you a hint:

The place where my mother

proposed to my father.

I'm afraid I'm going to be too busy

to go anywhere with you.

- Sure, you must have a million things to do.

- You don't understand.

I'm going to be too busy from now on.

What do you mean? Too busy for me?

That's right.

- What did I do? I thought after last night...

- Last...

Last night was for laughs.

It's funny, I don't feel like laughing.

Sorry.

I had us all married.

We had three kids, and...

Patsy...

This is a business relationship.

It says so in my contract.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean

to break any clauses.

Oh, I'm sorry.

- Mister, can I have my ball?

- Here.

I can't come out.

I'm a prisoner.

- Here.

- Thank you.

- Hey!

- Come on, give it to me. Come on, give...

Here. Thank you.

Come on, now! Your life isn't over

just because of one unhappy love affair.

Here.

I suppose that what you want is sympathy

Well, you won't get sympathy from me

'Cause I'm willing to bet

Tomorrow you'll forget

Today's catastrophe

You will learn by sipping

from the wisdom cup

That when you're down

there's no place else to go

but up!

Up! Up!

You can bounce right back

You can bounce right back

Like the happy clown who's fallen down

Can bounce right back

When you try to smile

and think you've lost the knack

I'm happy to announce

You can bounce right back!

You can bounce right back!

So my friend, you went

and stubbed your little toe

And you'd like to tell your tale of woe

In a minute from now

I'm sure you'll wonder how

And where that pain did go

Make believe you weren't really hurt at all

Like Humpty Dumpty said

When he began that fall

You can bounce right back!

You can bounce right back!

Just refuse to cry and, by and by

You'll bounce right back

Like the fellow said

when he sat on a tack

I'm happy to announce

You can bounce right back!

It's the smile you smile that counts

Happy thoughts in large amounts

Any problem you can trounce

You can bounce right back!

You can bounce right back!

You can bounce right back!

You can bounce right back!

That's very nice. It's clever.

Say, if the ladies will excuse you,

I'd like to talk to you for a minute, huh?

Sure. Excuse me, kids.

- I'll see you later. Goodbye.

- Bye.

- Bye!

- Bye!

Hey, mister!

What about me? Shut out again, huh?

Yeah, thank you. Bye-bye.

Don't worry, now.

Of course I won't tell Patsy.

She wouldn't care.

- Patsy and I had a big fight.

- About what?

She didn't tell me.

Well, assert yourself, son!

Show her who's boss.

I did. She is.

You got to move right in, boy. Take charge.

I guess I just don't have

your knack with women.

How's Gaby?

She's not talking to me.

Well, I can't lose Patsy now.

I've waited all my life for her.

I know it's not very long,

but it's all I've got.

So what are we going to do?

Well, at least I got the leading-lady

problem solved.

I've got it figured out now

how both girls can do the show.

- You have?

- Sure.

- How?

- Here's how it works.

...and there's the finale!

- That's great!

We can wrap the whole thing up

in a breeze.

That's wonderful. The girls will love it.

Now, if I can just figure some way

to get Gaby out of her cabin...

- so I can tell her.

- Yeah. What the...

How about that?

I could lower you down past the porthole.

I guess not.

Don't tell me a couple of clever operators

like us...

can't figure some way

to get a gal out of her cabin.

- Jeez, that should be possible.

- Yeah, well, French girls aren't easy.

- Especially, Gaby.

- You know, she's very stubborn.

But I think I know how to handle it.

- How?

- Magic.

- What?

- Magic. Watch this.

- You've been getting too much sun.

- Voila.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going

to lie down. That trick always tires me out.

- I brought you a present.

- Thanks.

I'm glad you came.

I've been trying to get to talk to you.

- I had nothing to say.

- Ted told me what he said.

Must have sounded awful, huh?

Only if it was true.

I meant every word I said last night.

Then you didn't sign another girl

for the show?

- Well, I did, but...

- Open your present.

You have your contract back.

You're not quitting the show?

- You can't! Not now.

- You are confused.

Last night you wanted it very much.

So much that you even made love to me.

That's not why I made love to you

last night.

I beg your pardon.

That's not why I made love to you

last night.

Gee, Gaby, you don't quit a show

just because you don't like someone.

- You have to do the show.

- I do not have to do anything.

When I want to do something,

I will do everything.

But if I am forced to do something,

I will do nothing.

Gaby.

Monsieur.

Don't tell me:
She sent you

to push me overboard, huh?

- I have come to help you.

- Help me what?

I know you are very unhappy,

but so is Mademoiselle.

I have never seen her like this.

She loves you very much.

Yeah, sure. She's mad about me, I can tell.

You have hurt her.

I've tried to explain to her. She won't listen.

- She's running out on the show now.

- Do you know the reason why, Monsieur?

Sure! She loves me so much

she just can't stand being near me, huh?

Non, Monsieur.

I will tell you the reason why.

You see...

- Come on, battle stations.

- What?

Come on, don't just sit there.

We're going into action, man.

I can't, Patsy might phone.

You really love Patsy, don't you?

Either that, or I've invented a new disease.

How do you feel about Steve?

- Patsy's more my type.

- No.

What I mean is, what would you do

if your father-in-law went to prison?

I'd bake a cake and put a file in it.

But that's silly. I don't have a...

What?

Captain, could I speak to you for a minute?

It is my pleasure, Mr. Benson.

What can I do for you?

I'm having a little trouble

with a French girl, and l...

You've come to the right man.

I have a plan,

but I'm going to need your help.

You have only to speak.

Tonight at the ship's party...

- That's the plan. I don't think it can miss.

- Extraordinary.

- I shall be looking forward to tonight.

- So will I.

- Are they here yet?

- No, not yet.

- Hey, what if it doesn't work?

- Then you can lash me to the mast.

- I'm worried.

- Relax, will you? It'll work.

Our first little pigeon is coming.

I would suggest that you disappear.

- Good luck.

- Good luck.

- Good evening, Mademoiselle.

- Good evening, Captain.

Thank you for accepting my invitation.

I'm afraid I won't be able to stay very long.

I have a terrible headache.

I'm sure the party will make you feel better.

We have a table for two over there.

I'll join you in a moment.

All right.

- Good evening, Mademoiselle.

- Good evening.

It was so nice of you

to accept my invitation.

I'm afraid I won't be able to stay very long.
