Small Town Girl Page #6

Oh.

Oh, it's sweet.

Well, I'm glad you like it...

Ahem... darling.

Uh, so-So, I'm going

to take that cabin.

You can move my bags in there.

Huh?

Put them in the other cabin.

Yes, Mr. Doctor.

And then go out on

deck. They may need you.

Yes, Mr. Doctor.

For heaven's sake, you might help.

Don't leave it all to me.

Didn't even answer when

I spoke to you out there.

How'd I know who you meant

When you said "darling"?

Who'd you think I meant, the captain?

I've been doing all the work.

My face is sore from smiling.

Why don't you sit down

and rest your face?

No one's looking.

I'll rest in my own cabin, thanks.

Get some things out of

here, if you don't mind.

Oh, I hope my dresses aren't crushed.

I'd die if anything happened to them.

I'm gonna have a good time on this boat.

Hope you don't mind.

You know, I may never get

another chance to be on a yacht.

Oh, go right ahead.

Don't expect too much out of me, though.

I got a lot of work to do.

Oh, I won't bother you.

Thank goodness they're all right.

Oh, your mother bought

me such lovely things.

You know, I've never had more

than one new dress at a time.

Now I have 10 all at once.

Oh, look. Isn't it lovely?

Beautiful, beautiful.

Mmm, but wait till you see my negligee.

Oh, I've dreamed of having

one like this all my life.

Isn't it sweet?

Charming.

Mmm, but this next one,

I almost think this is

the loveliest of all.

Just wait till you see it.

That really is the prettiest,

Don't you think so?

There's no doubt about it.

All right.

You don't have to look at them.

This is one trousseau that

wasn't bought to please a husband.

Thank goodness I don't have to worry

Whether you like it or not.

Well, I'm looking. What is it?

None of your business.

Hey, for the love of-

What is it?

It's Priscilla.

Is Dr. Dakin on board?

Yeah.

Uh, yes, ma'am. He's in his cabin.

Thanks.

Here.

Pris, you shouldn't have come here.

I know, I know.

You're giving people an

awful opening to talk.

I can't help it. I had to come.

Why?

I wanted to see what she was like.

Oh, don't ever be jealous of her.

Kay, this is miss Hyde.

How do you do?

How are you?

Of course I realize you didn't

want anyone to see you off,

But I just had to

come and say good-Bye.

Why, Mack sounds impatient.

I think I'd better be going.

I'll go on deck with you.

It might look better.

I imagine you and Bob

have things to say.

I'll wait for you out here.

You're not jealous now, are you?

No.

She's not your type.

Good-Bye.

Miss Hyde.

I wanted a chance to talk to you.

Really?

I wanted to tell you how sorry I am.

I don't see why you should be sorry.

You've done very well for

yourself, it seems to me.

No. I mean, what I've done to you,

Coming between you and-

Oh, don't worry about that.

You haven't come between Bob and me.

Why, you couldn't.

So if you have any idea

like that in your mind,

Please forget it.

And, uh, what's that funny thing, Mack?

That's a compass.

Oh, really?

That tells you the

direction we're going, huh?

Uh, not "direction. "

You use "course" on a boat.

Oh.

Well, uh, what direction

are we going now?

North by northeast.

Cy, bring that chart over.

Yes, sir.

See, I lay my course out on this chart.

I, uh...

know the speed of my...

engine, and...

well, I just hold her on a course

Till we reach that point there.

That'll be, uh, off Portsmouth tonight.

Oh, imagine being able to do that.

You had to study a

long time, didn't you?

Sure.

It isn't as easy as you might think.

Oh, I think it's fascinating to be able

To find your way all

over the world like that.

Well, you think you'd

like to be a sailor, ma'am?

Oh, yes.

You'll teach me how to

steer the boat, won't you?

See, I've never been on one before,

And well-

Well, come on. Take the wheel.

Thanks.

Well...

now what do I do?

I'm afraid it was my fault.

I was steering.

What were you trying

to do, wreck the boat?

If I thought it was gonna

be as bad as all this,

I'd have-

No peace, no nothing.

Oh, let me help you, darling.

Ah, never mind.

You run along.

Are you gonna read

all these books, honey?

Gonna try to.

Oh, please let me help you, dearest.

Now, what's the idea? What?

All this business.

You said I wasn't doing my

share, and you were right.

I said, before the servants.

I might forget.

The best thing is for

me to do it all the time.

Here.

Oh, here's your cap.

No.

There.

That's better.

Now, listen.

You're trying to annoy me.

Hello, so-So.

Wing-He want to speak to Mrs. Doctor.

Well, come on in, wing.

No flower on boat,

So me make them.

All the same good.

You made them?

Yeah.

Me make them from Callots and Ladishes.

Callots and Ladishes?

You must excuse him.

He don't speak good.

He means Callots and Ladishes.

Oh.

Ohh, carrots and radishes.

That's it. Yes.

Look. Isn't that sweet?

Thank you so much.

Uh, wing, uh...

why don't you show Mrs.

Dakin through your galley?

You like a look-See?

Oh, yes. Yes, she'd love it.

Sure you don't mind my leaving you?

No.

Now, don't you give me

another thought, dear.

You just run right along.

This way, Mrs. Doctor.

Ohh.

Darling?

Darling?

What is it now?

May I come in?

What do you want?

Would you do me up?

I didn't want to ask so-So.

Oh, isn't this nice?

This is the only room I haven't seen.

What did you say you wanted done?

Those little hooks at the back.

Wait till you see what we're

gonna have for dinner tonight.

Caviar and terrapin.

Caviar and terrapin?

I've never had any of those things.

Well, you'll be ill if you eat them.

I'm never ill.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

All right, then. You

can take care of me.

What am I married to a doctor for?

Oh, and-

And I forgot-

Baked Alaska.

I've always read about that.

How about a little gorgonzola

cheese to top off with, huh?

Well, I've never had that.

Grand idea.

There. That's finished.

You ready?

Yeah.

Thank you.

Dinner's served, Mrs. Doctor.

Oh, thank you, so-So.

Oh.

It's getting a little rough, isn't it?

Makes you feel sort of funny.

You'll feel better after dinner.

Why, that's your baked Alaska.

I know.

Aren't you going to eat it?

I don't think so.

Oh, and you haven't had

any gorgonzola, either.

Oh, I know...

But I think I... better go.

Surprise, surprise.

Well, it's beautiful, wing.

Wait. You taste.

Uh, don't you think

we ought to put it away

And keep it for a souvenir?

No, no. You can eat all,

Even bride and little groomy.

All good.

Here you are, dear.

Here, so-So. I'll take that.

My, my, my, wing.

This really looks delicious.

Here you are, darling.

I'll eat it...

tomorrow.

Drink for sick of sea

- Champagne.

No, thank you.

I don't want any champagne.

No. I'm not sick of sea

Or seasick or-

Uh, you seasick green.

Well, I'm not green.

Oh.

Leave it, so-So.

I'll drink it later.

I just want to lie down a little.

Better drink now.

I'm all right, I said.

I call Mr. Doctor.

Oh, please go away.
