I don't know.
But I'm willing
to give it a try.
All right.
If you want to see a burlesque
show, you don't need Mr. Webster.
I'll take you.
You?
Me.
Oh, waiter.
Check, please.
Hey, Charlie, isn't that him?
I think it is.
Keep the change, please.
Thank you.
Oh, I almost forgot. I got you a
suite at the Royal Plaza Hotel.
You know, it just doesn't seem right, a
man letting a woman pay for everything.
Well, you're not exactly
an ordinary man.
It's him.
I wonder why he grew the beard.
When has he got time to shave?
Wow!
Remarkable muscle control!
Remarkable.
Say, how do you suppose
she was able to...
I really wouldn't know.
Doctor, would you please stop...
I'm sorry.
And I'm sorry
we went to that place.
Are you?
Yes.
From now on, I'll leave that phase
of my education to Mr. Webster.
You mean, you found watching
that girl educational?
We never studied anything
like that at MIT.
The only girls I saw
were in the chemistry lab,
and they had on those long,
white coats.
I had no idea what was
Doctor, do you mind
if we change the subject?
No.
Thank you.
What would you like
to talk about?
Anything but Jerry Webster.
Fine.
You hate this suit, don't you?
Oh, no, no.
Of course not.
It's very colorful.
I'm afraid it's the only
new suit I have.
But tomorrow I'm getting
Oh, I forgot. You don't
wanna talk about him.
Webster's buying you
a new wardrobe?
He insisted.
Oh, Doctor, let me buy it.
Oh, I couldn't.
But I've told you that
They've given me a carte Blanche
expense account just for you.
We'll go first thing
in the morning.
And Linus?
Yes?
How long have you
had that beard?
Don't you like it?
Yes, I do.
It's very impressive.
Makes you look so
distinguished, so intellectual.
So handsome.
It's magnificent. You'd
like me to get rid of it.
Would you?
Say!
Your husband's a real doll
without the beard!
Yes!
I mean, he's not my husband.
I don't like it.
It's too dangerous.
Maybe she'll go back to the lab.
Maybe she'll find out
you're not Tyler.
Maybe she'll find out
there's no VIP.
Maybe Tyler won't come up with VIP.
Maybe the world will end.
Do you think there's a chance?
Relax, Pete. I'm gonna keep Miss
Templeton busy day and night.
People want VIP.
They demand it now. We haven't got it.
We'll get it.
Down in that lab, one of the most brilliant
chemists in the world is working on it.
He may even have it, right now.
Dr. Tyler!
Over here, my boy.
What exploded?
VIP!
Now, look, Doc. I know I
said it could be toothpaste,
but isn't this cleaning teeth
the hard way?
It's nothing as mundane
as toothpaste.
Now, somewhere I made a slight mistake.
It all looked so simple.
Do you know yet what VIP
is gonna be?
Of course, my boy. VIP will
be the miracle product.
suffering, joy to the depressed,
inspiration to the artistic
and peace to the world,
and it will sell
for only ten cents.
Doc, that's fabulous.
It is a miracle product.
How soon will you have it?
still a few bugs in the miracle.
Keep at it, Linus.
VIP will make you immortal.
Thank you. Boss!
I brought the mail.
I'll be
right there, Millie.
How's the hermit?
Who?
The mad chemist, Dr. Tyler.
Oh, Linus. He's fine.
Linus!
We're spending the day together.
We're playing golf.
Hallelujah!
Today, you are a woman.
Think he'll like it?
Well, if he doesn't, he's been
taking the wrong kind of chemicals.
That was fun!
You know, you did amazingly
well for only one lesson.
Thank you.
I'm sorry I made you
drive so far out.
Such a lonely stretch of beach.
That's all right.
Really, Linus, you shouldn't be embarrassed
to have people see you like that.
Well, I...
No, you look wonderful
without your clothes.
So do you.
I meant...
So did I.
Carol, I...
Yes?
There's something
I'd like to ask you.
Go ahead.
I'm afraid
you might misunderstand.
No. Ask it.
Well, I...
Do you have
any more ideas for VIP?
What?
Well, I hate to ask it,
but after what
Mr. Webster said...
What did he say?
When I mentioned your idea
about "V Day is coming,"
he said it was all right but probably
the last one you'd ever have.
What? He said you were
strictly a one-idea person.
If anybody on Madison Avenue was
a one-idea person, it's him.
His whole career's been
built on one idea. Sex.
You know, it's a funny
thing about you two.
You claim he's oversexed
and he claims you're...
I'm what?
I'd rather not tell you.
Well, I'm not undersexed!
I'm sure you're not.
It's true, I haven't come up
with any new thoughts.
But we've been having so much
fun the last few days and...
I promise, tomorrow morning,
half-a-dozen great ideas for VIP.
Good! That'll teach Webster.
Now, let's talk about
something more inspiring.
Who?
Your cousin.
The human satellite.
Oh, him.
Right now, he's over Russia.
Oh, brave, wonderful man.
Yes.
I've often pondered
his last words to me.
They were so cryptic.
What did he say?
He said, "Cousin Linus,
"life is like outer space.
Explore it today,
"for tomorrow you may not be able
to get it off the launching pad."
I wonder what he meant.
He meant, enjoy life now,
before it's too late.
You know, there is something
But I don't know how.
Well, let's see.
I've taught you dancing, golf,
how to swim...
What is it you'd like to do now?
I'd like
to kiss you, but I...
That's even easier than dancing.
I think this may be
your best subject.
Hi, Kelly.
Mr. Ramsey's been trying to reach you.
Oh, thank you.
He's at your apartment.
My apartment?
He says it's very urgent.
Hello, Pete? What are you
doing at my apartment?
Waiting for you.
How are things going
with Dr. Tyler?
Oh, things are going
lousy with Dr. Tyler.
Get over here right away. Why
don't you come to the office?
I tried to. I've been thrown
out of the lobby, twice.
I'll be right there.
It's no use.
I'm marked for life.
Have you tried alcohol?
Yes. I had three martinis.
I warned you
not to hire that madman!
Here, try this kind.
Thanks. No, no, no. Rub
it on your face. Here.
He's not a chemist. He's a
frustrated munitions maker.
He'll never come up with VIP.
We'll be exposed.
This'll be the biggest scandal
that ever hit Madison Avenue.
The agency's through.
We're ruined.
There's only one way out.
Suicide.
All right, all right.
It'll work. We'll get
Hadley to commit suicide.
Then we'll pin the blame on him.
You may have a little trouble
selling that idea to Hadley.
He wouldn't dare refuse.
His job depends on it.
- We'll go see Tyler first thing in the
morning. -00.
No, sir, you're not getting
out of my sight again.
We're sticking together
till we get VIP.
Okay, you can stay here tonight.
You can even have the bed.
