How do you like that? He's

chasing her into the woods.

That is part of the ceremony. If he

catches her, he gets a set of dishes, huh?

Boy, what a swell spot

to open a hot dog stand.

Say, they're marrying

them off like flies.

Nun elektu iun

Josh, she's got Josh!

Josh? Gosh!

Jen le luno nova

No, no, wait.

You cannot go in there. Why not?

You must dance.

Well, let's dance.

How am I doing, bubbles?

Break it up, will you?

I'm dancing my way

into food for the winter.

She has chosen you as a husband. Huh?

You're out of circulation. That's

the wedding march. Get me out of this.

Send for

the marines.

What are you doing?

I'm a decoy.

Sukka nu!

Make a break for it.

Here comes Ferdinand.

Get me outta here.

He's here somewhere.

Sukka nu.

Sukka nu.

There he is!

What's that?

That is your son.

Josh, what the devil

are you doing?

Dr. Livingstone,

I presume.

Hello, Skipper.

- Hello, Gloria.

- Hello, Josh.

Have you gone completely

mad? She's marrying me.

It's about time.

No, that's not Mima.

Mima's over there.

Go ahead, take five.

I'll see you.

It's the most disgraceful

thing you've ever done.

You're coming home with us

and you're coming right now.

I can't...

Never mind, Josh.

We'll play Indian every Friday

night. Oh, I don't know...

And that girl?

Who is that girl?

That's Gloria Wycott.

Josh is engaged to her.

She is very beautiful.

It's the craziest thing

I ever heard of!

Josh, I don't know

where you get it from,

but it's lunacy,

just plain lunacy.

You'd rather stay

and live in that pigsty,

than go home where you belong and

live like a civilized human being?

Now, put down that baseball bat

and let me talk to him.

Josh, you remember me,

don't you?

The Wycott girl?

Sure.

Here's

the general idea.

We're going to take a nice

leisurely cruise home.

Give you time to get over

eating with your fingers.

Then every night in the moonlight I'll

whisper sweet nothings in your ear.

You wouldn't want me if I didn't

want to go back, would you?

There are some things

around here I like.

Yes, I saw one of them

and I don't blame you.

But, Josh, you've never

seen me in a sarong.

I'm quite a dish.

Sure, but...

I told you.

You're wasting your time.

I want no

more nonsense.

We're sailing tomorrow,

and you're going with us!

But why would he want to live

here like he was a nobody?

Why did he come with you

in the first place?

I don't know.

That's Josh for you.

Do you think he will

go back with her?

I guess so. He always said

they'd get him in the end.

Maybe it is

better that way.

That girl.

She is very pretty.

Gloria's all right,

I guess.

But for my money,

I'll take a homemaker.

But Ace, you always

said that you...

Yeah, but a fellow has

to learn, hasn't he?

Take when I came

here with Josh,

we didn't even have a place

to put our cigarette butts.

Used to kick them

through a hole in the floor.

Mima, when a guy does that

he's sunk pretty low.

Has he?

Yeah.

And then you came,

and look at the joint now.

It's a home.

You like a home?

Sure, I do.

Nothing but roaming around.

Eating in hash joints.

Half the time

with no toes in my socks.

I wouldn't ask

a dog to do that.

Well, I said it.

You said what?

For Pete sakes,

I'm asking you to marry me!

Ace, you are

very sweet.

Am I?

Sure enough?

Hi, fellows.

Josh!

What are you

doing back here?

I abdicated.

From now on I'm going to be

nothing but a nothing.

Just like you two. You are not going back?

No, they're sailing tomorrow,

but I'm going to stick around.

I got to protect my

interests. Wait a minute.

I got a little stock

in this corporation too.

What is this? You don't seem

to be happy that I'm staying.

You got a girl. Why don't

you go home with her?

You can't have everybody. Why not?

'Cause I got some ideas

myself, that's why not.

Just when I start doing

all right, you come back.

Well,

you dopey-looking cluck.

You're kidding.

You, in love.

What's the matter? Dopier-looking

clucks than me have been in love.

Name one. What's the

difference between me and you?

I'm human, am not I? There's

been some complaints.

I don't go

around singing,

but I love her

more than you do.

What do you

think of that?

There, I said it. You said it, all right...

Giving her the same line you

give every gal before you run out.

I suppose you didn't

run out on Gloria?

I'm in love

with her myself!

What do you know about

that? I want to marry her.

What do you think of that? So do I.

Why do you suppose I'm staying

here... Josh, Ace... please.

Let's settle this. She picks

one and the other is out.

You can't put her in a spot. Suppose

she don't want either one of us?

What's the matter?

You scared?

All right,

you asked for it.

There you are,

Mima.

Which one?

I'm sorry,

Josh.

Hey, I'm doing all right

for a dopey-looking cluck.

I hope you know just

how good you are doing.

Mima, he'll cause you a lot of

trouble and never make a quarter.

But he'll hand you

a million laughs.

Uh, Captain.

I would like

to know something.

I would like to know if to stay in

this country a man must have a passport.

You have not got one?

Oh, yes, I've got one.

But I know one fellow

who has not.

Who is he?

An American sailor.

Hello?

Hello?

Anybody home?

Are you Lannigan?

You haven't got a daughter

that's getting married, have you?

No. Why? Then, I'm

Lannigan. What do you want?

Your passport... let me see it. My what?

Your passport.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

I had it right here.

Oh, Mima!

Did you send my other

suit out to the cleaners?

Oh, yes, it had

spots all over it.

I did not think of

looking through the pockets.

She sent it out. Come back

tomorrow... That is too bad.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

What I'd give

for a patty-cake!

What are you going to

do with him? Deport him.

Dee-dee-dee-dee

Dee-dee

Da-da-doon da-doo

You know you're

much too near

And I'm too romantic

Wouldn't I be a sight

on a bended knee

I'm startled

when you whisper

I'll run

if you should sigh

I must

be so careful

Or I'll kiss

my heart good-bye

You shouldn't

let me dream

'Cause I'm

too romantic

Don't make me fall

Unless it could all

Come true

Oh. Are you ready for some bridge?

Yeah, I'm ready. Darling,

you've kept us waiting for hours.

I'm sorry.

Let's go down.

Look at that gorgeous

moon. Isn't it lovely?

Take your prisoner

to the boat.

Hey, wait a minute.

What kind of a racket is this?

You're going to get in trouble.

I know some big people.

Tell them hello for me. Tell

them hello for you. I ought to...

Ace!

Ace, where are you?

Ace.

What do you want?

What have they done with

him? He is already gone.

Come on.

Come on.

What is the matter
