Easter Parade Page #7

For me

Good evening, Miss Brown.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

- Any messages?

- No.

- Good night.

- Good night.

Hannah.

I was beginning to think

you were never coming.

If I knew you'd be here,

you'd be right.

- Oh, listen.

- You're lost.

This isn't the Ziegfeld roof.

Why did you run off

without letting me explain?

You don't have to explain.

This is after working hours.

- I had to dance with Nadine.

- You made that very obvious.

You couldn't wait, could you?

Was it fun watching me make a fool

of myself all those months of rehearsal?

I was willing to do anything to make good,

but I thought it was for us.

- But it was.

- No. The whole thing was a buildup...

...to get Nadine back. Well, now

you've got her. Excuse me.

You're wrong.

I don't want her. I want you.

Depends on what song

is being played.

- Would you listen to me?

- I'm sick of listening to you.

I'm sick of you

using my life for a checkerboard.

I've had enough. Now go on back to Nadine

and her Russian wolfhounds.

Tell her the experiment worked.

You can dance with anybody.

Good night.

Hannah...

...even a murderer is innocent

until he's proved guilty.

All right, I told you I did start this thing

to get Nadine back.

I was sore when she walked out.

I wanted to show her I didn't need her.

Well, I found out I don't.

I didn't know that until I met you.

How was I to know that you'd be

the most wonderful...

...girl in the whole world?

Hannah, will you please open the door

just for a minute?

I'm gonna stay right here

until you do, if it takes all night.

Baby?

Baby?

- Oh, hello.

- Well, it's nice to see you too.

Did you come alone?

Certainly.

Well, do you mind if I come in?

Oh, I'm sorry. Please do.

I thought maybe Don might...

We had a little misunderstanding.

I know. I stayed over at his place last night.

I haven't slept all night.

Didn't close my eyes.

- How's he?

- I don't know.

- He was still asleep when I left.

- Asleep?

You mean he wasn't upset?

Oh, a little. It's always a nuisance

auditioning a new partner.

Auditioning?!

He can't do that to me!

- Why not?

- Because he loves me, that's why not!

He's under the impression that

you weren't fond of him.

But I am. Terribly.

- I'm afraid it's a little late.

- Late? That can't be. What'll I do?

Well, if I loved someone,

I'd find a way to let them know it.

Well, it's different with a man.

- Why?

- I don't know. It just is, that's all.

It's easier. They can...

Johnny. Johnny.

Put on his favorite dress.

You'll be late for the Easter Parade.

Do something about your face.

You look horrible.

Oh, Johnny, thank you.

Thank you.

Hello, operator. Plaza 3-1598, please.

Hello, Nadine?

Nadine, get out all the hounds.

We're going for a walk.

Mr. Hewes' apartment?

Sam, where'd you put my...?

- What's that?

- These just arrived.

- Who are they for?

- For you.

For me? Well, they couldn't be.

Sam, well, don't put them down there.

- Go catch the fella...

- No card.

There must be some mistake.

Find out where they belong,

will you, Sam?

- They're very pretty.

- For you.

- For me? Well, who brought them?

- A messenger.

Put them down, will you?

Sam, do you know anything about this?

You think we dare open it?

"Happy Easter, darling."

There must be some mistake.

He got the wrong apartment.

- Shall I open the other one?

- No, I'll open it.

What a cute little rabbit.

Hello, little fella. Hello, there.

Isn't he cute?

Aren't you hungry?

Where did you come from?

Bunny want a cracker?

I'll get it.

- Hello, Sam.

- Oh, hello, Miss Brown.

- Meet bunny.

- We're old friends. Happy Easter.

- Happy Easter.

- Thank you.

- Did you...?

- Aren't you ready yet?

- Just like a man. Will you get his jacket?

- I'll get it.

- You're gonna be late.

- Late?

For the Easter Parade.

We had a date, remember?

Here, let's look. Oh, very nice.

Never saw you look

Quite so pretty before

Never saw you dress

Quite so handsome, what's more

I could hardly wait to keep our date

This lovely Easter morning

And my heart beat fast

As I came through the door

For

In your Easter bonnet

With all the frills upon it

You'll be the grandest fella

In the Easter Parade

I'll be all in clover

And when they look us over

We'll be the proudest couple

In the Easter Parade

On the avenue

Fifth Avenue

The photographers will snap us

And you'll find that you're

In the rotogravure

Oh, I could write a sonnet

About your Easter bonnet

And of the guy I'm taking

To the Easter Parade

On the avenue

Fifth Avenue

The photographers will snap us

And you'll find that you're

In the rotogravure

Oh, I could write a sonnet

About your Easter bonnet

And of the girl I'm taking

To the Easter Parade
