"Henry," she said...
And the man from the boat
took an accordion out of his pocket...
and he played...
The girl held her arms out to me...
and she started to dance.
Well...
with him playing and her dancing...
and me up to my neck in whiskey anyhow...
well, I put my arms
around that beautiful girl...
and was just about to dance with her...
when, of all people, you cut in.
You. Yes, you.
- Just open your mouth.
- Go away, and take that thermometer with you.
- The night nurse has just arrived.
- All right.
- Good evening.
- Hello.
- First door to the right.
- Thank you.
I'd fallen asleep...
and suddenly I was awakened by
a caressing touch on my forehead.
I opened my eyes and there she was,
sitting right on the edge of the bed.
Nellie Brown, Registered Nurse.
Your Excellency...
one look at her and it didn't matter
whether she was registered or not.
Then she took out a thermometer...
and she said, "Open your mouth. "
Who wouldn't for Nellie?
And then she put the thermometer in...
and my temperature went up to 110.
Who could ask for
a more beautiful death?
Your Excellency,
that's the story of my life...
and I'd be grateful if you'd push the button
and have it over with.
No.
Definitely no.
I hope you will not consider me
inhospitable if I say...
sorry, Mr. Van Cleve, but we don't cater
Please make your reservation
somewhere else.
Somewhere else?
But, Your Excellency, if I walk
into the lobby of the other place -
You mean, above?
Yes.
I know what will happen.
They might not even let me register.
The doorman might not even let me in.
Well, you never can tell.
It's worth trying.
Sometimes they have
a small room vacant in the annex.
Not exactly on the sunny side...
and not so very comfortable.
The bed may be hard...
and you might have to wait a few hundred years
until they move you into the main building.
Well, it doesn't hurt to try.
After all, they may inquire about you
among the residents in the main building.
I think you'll find a lot of people who will
give you a good reference, and that always helps.
For instance, there were...
several young ladies.
- What about them?
- Well, some of them might be there.
And so far as I can see,
you've made them all very happy.
Oh.
I'm sure they'd like
to see you happy too.
And your grandfather.
Oh, yes. Grandfather.
Don't you think
he'll be waiting for you?
- He might.
- He will.
- And not with a baseball bat.
- Hmm.
And if they all should fail,
Yes.
She's up there.
And she will plead for you.
Do you think so?
You know she will.
Yes, Mr. Van Cleve...
I would say you have a chance -
a very good chance.
Anyway, it's worth trying.
- Good-bye.
- Good-bye, Your Excellency.
- And thank you.
- Good luck.
I'll need it.
Down?
No.
Up.
