After Cyrus goes into rehab to dry out on Denny's advice, Barrett Sr. legally moves against his daughter-in-law and tries to have her arrested on kidnapping charges.

Of course not, Mr. Barrett,

I can't understand this.

Neither can I.

I want this man arrested.

Mr. Barrett, please give me a

chance to explain. I don't know...

There's the man

you want arrested.

Ah, there you are.

Now take it easy,

Mr. Barrett.

There's your grandson.

We'd have had him

long before this

if it hadn't been

for Gorgeous Claudius.

I don't know what

you're all trying to do,

but I want everyone

held for investigation.

Yes, sir.

Wait a minute, Dad.

Cyrus!

Listen, Dad. You don't want

to have this man arrested.

He's the man

that took the baby.

Oh, no, he isn't.

I left him with Denny while

I went looking for Cyrus.

I can never

thank you enough.

Well, I guess

that lets me out.

It certainly does.

Out of a job.

Mr. Barrett, you can't

do a thing like that.

You had the baby today

and you didn't tell me.

DeWolfe, you're through.

Play something, boys.

Do you people realize

we're on the air?

How are we doing?

Dad, give Denny a chance.

He's earned one.

Martin, if you

want that job,

you can have it for life.

Now, go and sing

your head off.

Right over here, please.

I don't know.

This is kind of sudden.

I feel sort of funny

without my cab.

Go ahead, Denny.

All right.

Go on.

Wait a minute.

He sings much better

with the baby in his arms.

Hurry up, honey, because

when you hear the gong,

it'll be two minutes

before our wedding.

I know an angel

On the east side of heaven

No wonder I'm happy and free

When I turn off Broadway

To the east side of heaven

Where an angel waits

For me
