That'll be right up.
Just a minute.
Thank you.
Good morning, Occidental.
before 11:
30.I'm sorry, sir.
Never before 11:
30.Accounting Department.
C.O.D. for 1026.
Mail for 1026. For 1026? Well,
why didn't you tell me? Oh, stupid!
Nice ham.
You said that in Vienna.
Not about ham. Most certainly about ham.
That was Wiener Schnitzel.
I remember distinctly arguing about
the relationship of a cow to a calf.
Jerry, you're an idiot.
You said that in Vienna. And London
and Rome and a few other places.
Say, was that
a party last nght!
Didn't I tell you we'd have
a great time in China?
Mmm. You certainly did. Let
me see. What was I last night?
It was something special. Oh,
sure. I was Emperor of All China.
Mmm. The Emperor
of All China.
Emperor, there's
Some of your subjects are
getting a little restless.
Would that be,
by any chance, the bill?
Good mornng, Emperor.
Have we been here three weeks? We
have, and we've had a swell time.
Now I suppose
you haven't the $800.
Will you have some more
ham, Emperor?
Have faith, little one. I
have, but not $800 worth.
Hey, there is a time
for fooling.
You've always said there was no
time for anything but fooling.
Well, who am I
to disturb a genius?
I'm not hungry, either.
Is it the fire escape?
It looks like the old boy
has got to go to work.
Any ideas, may I ask?
My dear, you're talking to a businessman.
You ought to know that by this time.
Hmm. I do.
But $805 is a record!
Who do you love?
My emperor.
Always brings home the
bacon, doesn't he? Always.
Uh... we mustn't mix
pleasure with business.
Just as you say, dear.
And what is my little woman
fixing for dinner tonight?
Uh, as a matter of fact,
just between you and me,
we may dine on a boat
tonight.
You know how it is.
We like to move.
Don't we though?
Good-bye, little woman.
Good-bye, Emperor.
Good morning, Mr. Day.
Good morning, Mr. Ling.
Mr. Day, it is, indeed, most
disagreeable to me, but... Yes?
I need not impress upon you the
urgency of, uh, well, your bill.
Oh, no need at all.
As a matter of fact,
I am expecting the auditor
today.
It will be very awkward
for me if, uh...
Oh, uh, the auditor.
I understand.
As it happens, I was just
on my way downstairs now.
I'll see you later, Mr.
Ling. Good afternoon.
Good afternoon, Mr. Ling.
Thanks.
Hmm. Thank you.
Hello. Occidental Hotel?
The manager, Mr. Ling, please.
The desk clerk at
Hotel Sino Manor speaking.
Mr. Ling?
The auditor is here, sir.
Yes, we'll show him
every courtesy.
Yes. Yes, sir. Mr. Ling conveys
his compliments, Mr. Daly,
and says he will come over
whenever you wish to see him.
Er, my very best
compliments to Mr. Ling...
and, uh, tell him
there's no hurry whatsoever.
I have a great deal to do.
As a matter of fact,
I'd rather not see Mr. Ling
till evening.
I'm the assistant manager. Consider
us all at your command. Oh, thank you.
And, uh, will you
have the ledgers sent up?
I expect to be very busy and I
don't wish to be disturbed. Yes, sir.
Boy, Suite 205.
This way, sir.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Mr. O'Neil, please.
Room 327.
Mr. O'Neil. I'm merely fulfilling
my obligation to this firm.
But I must ask you to meet
your bill immediately.
Why haven't...
But I haven't the money!
Mr. O'Neil, uh...
In a situation like this we
make great allowances for cash.
Well, Mr. Daly,
if I had any cash, I...
I might dig up 50.
For a hundred we'll cancel
the whole bill.
It's a deal.
Mrs. Frank Newman, please.
Uh, Room 425.
Let's see, 500.
One, two, 350 makes $850.
That's right.
Thank you.
I'm going to the Sino Manor
Hotel. The auditor is there.
Oh, good afternoon, Mr. Day!
Good afternoon, Mr. Ling.
I hope you have enjoyed your
stay with us. Good day, Mr. Ling.
Put them down here.
Whee!
Well, we made it.
Again.
I've decided
to write a book:
"My Breathless Years. '"
Will I be in it?
Mmm. Yes, but I don't think you'll
stay long. I'll kill you off early.
Not gettng tred of t all,
by any chance?
Never a dull moment, darling. Good girl.
Mmm. Here, you forgot
these this morning.
By the way,
where are we going?
Boat stops at Yokohama first. We'll
see how we feel when we get there.
I was afraid of that.
Well, well, well!
This is different.
Toni.
What?
Darling, we're rich.
Again? That's nice.
Hmm. This letter's
from my brother-in-law.
He's been, uh, looking
after the baby. Baby?
Yeah, listen.
What baby?
My baby.
Wait a minute, Jerry.
You mean that you have
a child? That's right.
Didn't I tell you?
No.
She must be five or six by now.
I don't know exactly.
Well, for a man who talks
so much, you say very little.
I:
- I told you I was married. Yes.
She died some time ago. Oh.
The point is,
my wife's family...
want to deny me the privilege
of parenthood.
I've been looking for that
brother-in-law of mine for a long time...
and now he wants my baby.
Well, he's gonna get her. And
it'll cost him exactly $75,000.
Jerry. Seventy-five thousand
dollars. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
What a beautiful world.
We'll take the first boat out of
Yokohama to San Francisco,
hop a plane to...
Hey, do you realize we've never
been in New York together?
Mmm. Why, darling,
it's gonna be marvelous.
You and I in New York?
Why, it's... it's...
The black ten
on the red ten.
Of course, we'll have to stop off in
Connecticut first to, uh, pick up the money.
My wife's family live there, which is
practically the only thing wrong with Connecticut.
Who do you love?
Jerry, don't go to Connecticut.
Why, how else can we get
the money? Don't get it.
I don't understand.
Jerry, don't even
want to go.
Oh, now I'm getting it. Not
a nice way to make money, huh?
Not a bit nice. Hmm. I
didn't know we were nice.
Think of New York.
That'll be nice.
I'm leaving for Paris
in the morning.
You mean... You mean you'll meet
me in Paris when I come back?
I don't know.
You're tired of chasing
trains is what you really mean.
Jerry, you once said we belong
because we both hated life.
Neither of us knew
what we wanted.
We've had three years. Are
we any nearer to knowing?
I'll answer that
by asking you:
Do you wish we were settled
down and it were our kid?
Do you?
No.
I don't think I do either.
But I wish we wanted to.
You're tired of chasing
trains, all right.
Jerry... don't go!
She is your child!
You can't take advantage
of that. She's yours!
But 75,000 bucks
is 75,000 bucks.
Well, you're the emperor.
Then you'll meet me
in Paris?
I'll know that when I'm in
Paris. Well, you're the empress.
Good night, Empress.
that your mode of life...
is not one that fits you to bring
up a child... my sister's child.
Just as stuffy as ever
in here.
Ah.
However, I have no desire to...
I have no desire to criticize
your mode of life.
Oh! No, no!
We are...
We are concerned only with
