DAY AND NIGHT,
ALL THE TIME:
I GO AROUND TALKING TO MYSELF,
TALKING TO MY WIFE.
HELLO, CONNIE.
CONNIE,
HOW DO YOU FEEL?
CONNIE, HOW'S THE KID?
DOES IT SMILE YET?
DOES IT LAUGH?
CONNIE, DOES IT RECOGNIZE
THE PEOPLE?
WELL, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD,
WILL SOMEBODY TELL ME
WHY I DON'T GE
A COAST-TO-COAST HOOKUP
AND BROADCAST IT OVER THE AIR?
NAW. I MONOPOLIZED
THE CONVERSATION LONG ENOUGH.
I YIELD THE FLOOR. O.K.
I'M SO SORRY I'M LATE.
I CAN'T FORGIVE MYSELF.
I FELL FAST ASLEEP.
IT'S NO INCONVENIENCE,
I ASSURE YOU.
OH, THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
BUT IT'S NO ENTIRELY THAT.
YOU SEE, I'VE LOOKED FORWARD
SO TO DINNER FIRST EVENING OUT,
AND HERE EVERYONE'S
ALMOST FINISHED.
YOU DIDN'T MISS A THING,
REVEREND.
I JUST SHOT MY MOUTH OFF,
THAT'S ALL.
WHY, I REALIZE
YOU MUST BE WONDERING
ALL THIS FUSS I'M MAKING.
NOW, YOU'RE PEOPLE
OF THE WORLD.
YOU'VE TRAVELED,
BUT I, I'VE NEVER
LEFT MY PARISH.
THAT'S WHY THIS YEAR
I MADE UP MY MIND
THE TRIP TO AMERICA.
OUR ANNUAL CONVENTION
OF MINISTERS, YOU KNOW.
BECAUSE I WANT TO GO OU INTO THE WORLD AT LAST.
I WANT TO MEE ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE,
SEE THINGS, GET AWAY
FROM BOOKS AND DUST,
AND SO YOU SEE,
TO ME, EVERYTHING
ABOUT THIS TRIP:
IS ADVENTURE.
IT'S ALL SO EXCITING.
IN REALITY, IT'S A
BRAND-NEW BEGINNING FOR ME,
AND I JUST WON'T LE A SINGLE MOMENT OF I
GO TO WASTE.
IS ANYTHING WRONG?
THAT'S ODD.
WHAT'S THE MATTER
WITH THEM NOW?
HEY, TOMMY, HOW DO
YOU FIGURE THAT?
ANN.
DEAREST.
THE WAY THEY TALKED-
THEIR LIVING HOPES
AND PLANS.
YOU AND I SITTING THERE
KNOWING ALL THE TIME...
WE WON'T SEE THEM AGAIN.
PROMISE ME, HENRY.
BUT, ANN, MY DARLING,
WHY?
BEG YOUR PARDON.
MY NAME'S LINGLEY.
I CAN USE YOU.
I'LL PAY YOU WELL...
IN ADVANCE.
50 FOR THE TRIP.
FOR WHAT?
I NEED A BODYGUARD.
A BODYGUARD?
I HAVE TO TAKE:
PRECAUTIONS.
YOU KNOW HOW:
TO HANDLE THIS.
YOU'RE A SOLDIER
DECORATED FOR BRAVERY.
ALL ABOUT YOU.
NO, NO. I'M SORRY.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
100 POUNDS.
I CAN'T.
YOU MUSTN'T, HENRY.
YOU CAN'T DO IT.
COME AWAY.
MY DEAR MADAM,
500 IS A FORTUNE.
IT'LL SET YOU UP
IN NEW YORK.
YOU HAVEN'T THE RIGH TO REFUSE IT.
WILL YOU:
TAKE THE MONEY?
THAT'S ALL I ASK.
CONSIDER IT.
AH. THAT'S BETTER.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
YOUR COFFEE IS SERVED,
SIR.
WHAT? ALL RIGHT.
I'LL HAVE IT NOW.
GIVE THE GUN:
BACK TO HIM.
RETURN THE MONEY.
BUT WHAT DIFFERENCE
CAN IT MAKE?
IT'S ONLY FOR
A LITTLE WHILE.
THEY'LL ALL
SOON FIND OUT.
CAN'T YOU SEE?
DON'T YOU KNOW?
WITHOUT MEANING IT, YOU'RE BEING
DRAWN CLOSER AND CLOSER AMONG THEM.
YOU'RE HELPING
THE STEWARD.
OH, I'M SO AFRAID.
WHY, ANN? WE'VE DONE
NOTHING WRONG.
WHY SHOULD THEY:
WANT TO PUNISH US?
BECAUSE WE'RE DIFFEREN
FROM THE OTHERS:
ON THIS SHIP, HENRY.
WE'RE SUICIDES.
GIN...
RUMMY...
THE END OF THE GAME.
IT.
TAKE A CARD, PRIOR.
WHY DID YOU:
HAVE TO COME HERE?
WHY DID YOU:
BECAUSE I SHOULD
HAVE REMEMBERED:
ON THIS SHIP.
IN THE STEAMSHIP OFFICE.
I SAW IT.
SURE. I SHOULD
HAVE REMEMBERED.
THE RAID. THE BOMB.
BUT YOU WEREN' TO KNOW.
NOT YET.
NOT THIS WAY.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
IT'S NO TRAGEDY.
THE SUN WILL RISE AND SE WITHOUT ME...
WITHOUT MY TWO CENTS.
BUT YOU MUS BE CAREFUL.
I ASK YOU TO REMEMBER THAT AT ALL TIMES.
PLEASE, HENRY, COME AWAY. LET'S LEAVE.
PROMISE ME YOU'LL DO
EVERYTHING YOU CAN.
YOU'LL HELP.
WAIT A MINUTE.
YOU'VE GO TO UNDERSTAND.
YOU MUST WATCH:
EVERY WORD YOU SAY,
EVERYTHING YOU DO.
I DO WHAT I LIKE.
IT'S MY TRADEMARK.
NOBODY BOSSES ME.
BUT THIS IS DIFFERENT,
IMPORTANT.
YOU MUST THINK:
OF THE OTHERS.
THE OTHERS?
WHAT ARE YOU DRIVING AT?
THEY STILL DON'T KNOW.
YOU MUSTN'T TELL THEM.
TELL THEM?
WHO, ME?
IS THAT WHAT'S WORRYING
YOUR LITTLE HEAD?
LISTEN, MISTER, WHY WOULD
THIS IS GOOD.
THIS IS DELICIOUS.
WELL, YOU DON'T KNOW.
TELL THEM?
WHY, THIS IS THE MOS GLORIOUS PRIZE PACKAGE
A GUY EVER GOT.
DID YOU ACTUALLY THINK
I WAS GOING TO CHUCK IT AWAY?
HA HA HA!
GO UP TO LINGLEY.
CATCH HIM QUICK.
HE'LL SIT DOWN WITH
THAT ACTRESS WOMAN.
ASK HIM HERE,
BENJAMIN.
A RUBBER OF BRIDGE,
ANYTHING.
STEWARD, I WANT YOU
TO FIX UP SOMETHING
FOR ME TONIGHT.
CHAMPAGNE, CAVIAR,
THE REST OF IT...
IN MY CABIN AROUND
MIDNIGHT FOR TWO.
THAT'S NOT NECESSARY.
TAKE IT. TAKE IT.
FOR ANYTHING I WANT.
WHAT I WANT NOW:
IS A CLOSED MOUTH.
JUST AS WELL IF NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT THIS.
THAT CLEAR?
AS YOU SAY, SIR.
QUICK! QUICK! HE'LL GO TO HER, BENJAMIN.
I WAS JUST TELLING
MY YOUNG FRIEND HERE,

I WAS AFRAID.
I DIDN'T KNOW HOW WELCOME
BUT WHY,
REVEREND, WHY?
WELL, THERE'S A SUPERSTITION,
