SHE'S BEAUTIFUL,

HERE YOU ARE, BABY.

SHE ALWAYS WAITS

SHE KNOWS SHE WON'T GET I IF SHE DOESN'T.

GO ON, GET OUT.

GET.

I'LL BET SHE WOULD.

I'LL BET IF SHE SAT DOWN

AND REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING,

SHE'D STILL GET THE SUGAR.

HE SHOULD BE COMING HOME

ANY DAY NOW.

I'M NOT SURE.

HAVE YOU MISSED HIM ?

TERRIBLY.

THEN WHY DON'T YOU

TELL HIM ?

DWIGHT ?

[ Sighs ]

OH, WHAT A THING

TO DO TO ME.

I'D GIVEN YOU UP.

I THOUGH THE POLAR BEARS HAD YOU.

[ Chuckles ]

DON'T YOU EVER DO THA TO ME AGAIN, LEAVE ME

WITHOUT TELLING ME.

I DON'T THINK I WILL.

YOU'RE THINNER.

YOU'RE NOT ILL ?

NO, NO, A LITTLE TIRED.

I'M ALL RIGHT.

YOU'RE SURE

ABOUT THAT ?

I'M POSITIVE,

MISS DAVIDSON.

I'M ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELEPHONE,

LET ME COME AND MEET YOU

AT THE STATION ?

I THOUGHT I'D WALK.

I WANTED THE AIR.

IS YOUR INVITATION

TO SPREAD A LITTLE FERTILIZER

STILL OPEN ?

[ Laughs ]

CAN YOU STAY:

FOR A FEW DAYS ?

IF YOU'VE GOT ROOM FOR ME.

I'D BUILD A HOUSE

IF I DIDN'T.

[ Engine Revving Loudly ]

[ Turns Engine Off ]

YOU MIGHT AS WELL

RUN A RAILWAY TRAIN

THROUGH HERE.

I BEG YOUR PARDON ?

THERE'S NO NEED

TO FRIGHTEN ALL THE ANIMALS.

SORRY, SORRY.

JULIAN.

HELLO, HELLO.

THE ADMIRAL TOLD ME

I'D FIND YOU HERE.

I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT WANT TO HAVE

A LOOK AT THIS REPORT OF MINE

BEFORE I HAVE IT TYPED.

I'M SURE IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

YOU DON'T HAVE

TO BE SO NOISY.

THE COWS WON'T GIVE

ANY MILK FOR A WEEK.

HE JUST SAID THAT.

SO THIS IS THE FERRARI ?

WHAT WILL SHE DO ?

I DON'T REALLY KNOW YET,

BUT I'LL FIND OUT ON SATURDAY.

YOU ARE COMING TO THE RACE,

AREN'T YOU ?

WELL, I'D LIKE TO.

WILL THERE BE MUCH

OF A CROWD ?

OH, I SHOULDN'T THINK SO.

IT'S A QUESTION OF TRANSPOR FOR MOST PEOPLE.

BESIDES,

NOBODY CARES WHO WINS.

I SUPPOSE YOU THINK

YOU'RE GOING TO ?

I MIGHT.

IT'S THE FASTEST CAR, YOU KNOW.

COMMANDER, THERE'S

A TELEPHONE CALL

FOR YOU.

OH, ALL RIGHT.

UH, BE RIGHT BACK.

JULIAN,

THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

WHY ARE YOU DOING IT ?

BECAUSE I WANT TO.

I CAN'T THINK

OF A BETTER REASON.

YOU THINK:

IT'S THAT FUNNY ?

WELL, IN VIEW OF THINGS,

DON'T YOU ?

"FROM:
UNITED STATES

NAVAL FORCES, BRISBANE.

"TO:

I GUESS THIS:

MAKES YOU AN ADMIRAL,

IF YOU WANT TO BE ONE.

CONGRATULATIONS.

THANK YOU, SIR.

MAY I DICTATE SOMETHING

TO YOUR SECRETARY ?

YES, I COULD LET YOU

DICTATE SOMETHING TO HER,

BUT I TRIED TO GET THROUGH

TO BRISBANE MYSELF

HALF AN HOUR AGO.

THERE WAS NO REPLY.

THEY'VE CLOSED UP.

I SEE.

WELL, THANK YOU, SIR.

[ Tires Screeching ]

[ Tires Screeching ]
