Pin Up Girl Page #3

Tell her the truth. Did I invite you-

When the agent phoned and told us to come over,

well, naturally we thought that-

Agent? What agent phoned you?

How should I know? All he said

was to see you about the tryout-

Don't you realize that this is Miss Lorraine

from the musical comedy Remember Me?

You see, we came right over

from the theater...

and I guess, by mistake,

they seated us at this table.

Just a minute.

Remember Me closed last night.

What's the difference?

They're here now, and everybody's happy.

- Aren't we?

- If you were in Remember Me, you know all the numbers.

Oh, heavens to Betsy, yes.

She knows them backwards. Why, back in-

Well, that's fine. Why don't we

have her try one out right now?

I told you,

I don't know anything about it!

I think it's a swell idea, and we're all for it.

Aren't we, Miss Lorraine?

Oh, I'd love to, but we have

to catch a train in 40 minutes.

We're joining the U.S.O. show

in Washington.

- This'll only take a couple of minutes.

- I'm sorry. I can't.

- I have a cold.

- Oh, come on.

There's no need for me to deliberately

flaunt myself with laryngitis, is there?

- Come on.

- Well, it's too late to phone Uncle Herman now.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I have a big surprise for you.

As a matter of fact, it's a bigger

surprise to me than it'll be to you.

You all remember me?

I mean, the show Remember Me.

Then surely you'll remember her.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I give you Miss Laura Lorraine...

in "Don't Carry Tales."

All right? Take it away, Charlie.

Listen, children

Listen to your teacher

Pay attention and learn your ABC's

And when you grow up

you can be a quiz kid

Or a guest of honor

On Information Please

Listen, children

Listen to your teacher

You gotta know your figures

if you wanna be considered bright

Tell us more, oh, teacher

Tell us more, more, more

Listen, children

Listen to your teacher

Battles are won in the daytime

Ah, but history is made at night

Tell us more, oh, teacher

Tell us more

- More?

- More!

If you want to be teacher's pet

Here's a little motto

that you mustn't

No, you dasn't ever forget

Don't carry tales out of school

'Cause if you do

you're a fool

You mustn't tell

everything you know

And keep it to yourself

that I love you so much

Don't carry tales out of school

You'll find it's a pip of a rule

And though a busybody

may insist

Don't let on that we've kissed

If you're a blabbermouth

you're off my list

So don't be a stubborn mule, baby

And don't carry tales out of school

Tell us more, oh, teacher

Tell us more

Well, don't you think

we ought to dance now

You'd better button up

your upper lip

A little slip may sink your ship

If you're a blabbermouth

you're off my list

So don't be a stubborn mule, baby

- Hush.

- Shush.

- Psst.

- Hey.

If as a lover

you're a riot

Don't let out a peep

Just keep it quiet

Don't carry tales out of school

Yes, sir!

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo.!

Whoo-hoo!

Terrific guy-

that Malcolm on the drums.

- You were swell.

- Oh, thank you.

- May I have this dance?

- Uh-huh.

Hold it. Thank you.

I think it's swell that a big

musical-comedy star like you...

could come here on a blind date,

not knowing who you were going to meet.

Oh, one gets tired of the usual bankers...

and millionaires and playboys.

It's rather nice meeting

someone... different.

Where do I come off?

Does he have to dance

every dance with her?

Train number 61:

Newark, New Brunswick,

Elizabethtown.

- Yes, ma'am.

- Did you think we were never coming back?

Nothing like a hamper of goodies

to take on the train.

- You look like Santy Claus.

- As far as I'm concerned, it is Christmas.

You don't know what the past few hours

have meant to me, Lorry.

- They were wonderful.

- I had a terrible disappointment when I came home.

You did? How?

Well, sounds kind of goofy, but...

while I was in Guadalcanal, a girl sent me

a fan letter with her picture in it.

Boy, did I fall-

hook, line and sinker.

I could hardly wait

till I got home to meet her.

And now you find she doesn't like you?

It was a bigger disappointment than that.

I found she was married and the picture

she'd sent had been taken 15 years ago.

Oh.

Now you know what it means to meet a girl

like you who's really on the level.

The 12:
30 for Trenton-

- Lorry, come on. We'll miss our train.

- Baltimore-

Ooh, that's us. I guess

we'll have to say good-bye now.

Wait a minute. We haven't got your address.

Who's got a pencil?

- I have.

- Get me paper, somebody, quick.

Here. Write it on the back

of that magazine.

We're stopping off to visit

Kay's aunt in Baltimore first...

so if you want to write, you'd better

send the letters in care of her.

- What's her address?

- 473 Oriole Street.

And my aunt's name

is Miss Minny Pritchett.

Gee, it'll be like doing time

in the brig till we hear from you.

I don't know what you mean,

but sounds awful nice.

Hold out your arms-

for the packages, I mean.

- Can you hold 'em all?

- Uh-huh.

- Both your hands full?

- I'm afraid they are.

Not good-bye, just good night.

Good night.

Come on, Lorry. Hurry up.

Oh! Good-bye! Uh, good night.

- Good-bye.

- Good-bye.

Hey. How far is Baltimore

from Washington?

Oh, uh, it's about the same as it is

from Washington to Baltimore.

What's that address?

Hey, I forgot to

tear it off the magazine!

- Hey, wait! Hold that train!

- Hold that train!

Hold that train to Baltimore.!

If nothing else gets me down about this job,

climbing these stairs every day will.

Come on. After two weeks, you oughta

be able to get your mind off New York.

- They've probably forgotten all about us by now.

- Men are like that.

Dud Miller's the only one who ever

treated me sweet and suggestive...

but I loved it.

Mmm, it was wonderful,

being a musical-comedy star...

for a night.

I guess it's the nicest thing you've ever been.

In your mind, I mean.

Bureau of Aeronautics.

Uh, you got me. No, I know!

You go down here-

- It's them!

- What'll we do?

Oh! Run!

- We're trapped.

- Now where will we go?

So you keep right on going

till you get to 3361.

Oh, hold on. That's the old 3354.

That ain't right.

Wait a minute. I'm wrong.

You don't turn right. You turn left.

- Oh, the left.

- That's right.

- You mean my right?

- No, my right, your left.

- If I turn left, I'm right?

- No, my right, your left.

- My left?

- That's right.

Why didn't I stay in Missoula?

Never mind that. Peek out and see

where they're going. Go on!

It's safe.

Let's get to the office quick!

- 3369. Here we are.

- Hey, wait.

Uh, "Private. Enter 3368"?

- Well, then it must be back that way.

- I give up.

Wait a minute.

Oh!

- What's the matter?

- It's them again. They're coming back!

- Here we are- 3368.

- Yeah. Finally.

I'll wait outside till

you're through with the chief.

- Okay. I don't think I'll be very long anyway.

- Hey, square your hat.

- Where'd they go?
