all the liquors, what we gonna use, eh?

Show you how you're gonna do.

You read what she says on the outside...

...and then you gonna taste

and make sure she's inside.

Start first with a bourbon.

That's bourbon.

Rum.

That's rum.

Vodka.

Gin.

That's a gin, I hate gin, I don't like it.

Blue Galliano.

Cherry Herring.

I like a Cherry Herring. I like.

Well, we all set.

We ready to begin, eh?

Why don't we begin

with Layer Number 1, Blue Galliano, eh?

Blue Galliano.

Take your Blue Galliano...

Take your Blue Galliano and move

your hands, sprinkle around your bowl.

Go the left, never to the right,

up to the market.

What do you know, we're pushing it

too much, your Blue Galliano.

I'll show you what we do

in a case like those.

You take your glass,

you tilt your bowl and you scoop, eh?

Boys, to save time, don't try

to put them back in the bottle.

The tops are so small,

you're gonna spill your drink, eh?

- Thank you very much.

- We're going to use flour.

We'll use Good Old flour,

it's free-flowing.

You can keep it in wet places,

it'll never harden or get lumpy.

Not good old,

free-flowing flour. Chef?

Never, never. Thank you, Johnny.

- You're doing a wonderful job.

- Thank you, chef.

Take your free-flowing flour,

put your free-flowing flour...

Next, what you gonna use

is up to your own taste.

For instance, you could use bourbon.

You could use it.

Rum.

You could use it.

Blue Galliano.

Don't use.

Cherry Herring.

I like Cherry Herring. I like.

One dash hurts nobody, eh?

Now we use E-G-G, egg, John, yes.

We're gonna use Good Old eggs,

they're not as costly as other eggs.

The reason being they've been stored...

...but they're as fresh

as the day they were laid. Chef?

- John, you're doing a wonderful job.

- Thank you, chef.

Thank you, John,

you're doing a wonderful job.

Thank you.

Break the egg easy.

Rum. Remember, let your fingers...

[CHICKS CHIRPING]

Hello, chicky.

Hello. Hello, chicky.

Now, we're ready

for crme de menthe, huh?

Hold the crme de menthe in one hand,

take your other hand and cup your hand.

Now, pour in the cup in your hand

four drops, eh?

One, two, three, four.

And slowly open up your fingers.

And remember, you can use fingers

to keep your hands because...

What are you gonna...?

Remember,

you got your fingers like this.

Remember, you...

Forget it, you got your fingers...

...and keep your hands nice and clean

because without them, who then?

Now we use fruit.

- Fruit.

- Thank you very much.

- Thank you.

- We're gonna use Good Old bananas.

Because Good Old bananas

are real good. Chef?

- You're doing a wonderful John, job.

- Thank you, chef.

Thank you, John.

- You're doing a wonderful job.

- Thank you, chef.

Thank you, John,

you're doing a wonderful job.

- Well, thank you, chef.

- Thank you, John.

You're doing a wonderful job.

- Thank you, chef.

- You're welcome.

Remember, when you got your fruit,

don't bruise your fruit...

...because when you bruise your fruit

you'll hurt your cake.

Take your fruit nice and gentle...

...and squeeze them

in the pan nice and easy.

When you get them in going nice...

...remember, you got your fingers

to keep your hands nice and clean.

Now you're gonna knead it.

When I say knead it,

I mean knead it...

...and when you get your knee in it,

then you're getting pretty good.

- We have to get...

- Shut your face.

- Tommy.

- Now use your Cherry Herring.

- Chef... Tom, look...

- That's good Cherry Herring.

You know what you could do

with this?

You could put it behind your ears,

smells nice.

- Fellas, Chef...

- Use it for hair tonic if you want.

- Tommy.

- Want me to tell them the truth?

- Don't tell them.

- [IN NORMAL VOICE] I'm Irish.

- Chef, please.

- I'm an Irish tenor.

- Listen.

- We have to go.

- [SINGING] When Irish eyes are smiling

- Thanks.

Come on, chef. Let's get back there.

Thank you, fellas.

Hey, we'll see you later

at the hospital, huh?

- Okay. We'll wait there.

- We'll be waiting for you.

- Lf that isn't a promise, we don't go.

- It's a promise.

It's nice of you girls to come down here

to welcome the boys home.

When the word gets out,

they'll be flying without the plane.

Hey, they're still out there, ain't they?

Yeah.

That gabby nurse is liable

to keep them out there forever.

Look, buster,

this is enough to drive a man crazy.

Those beautiful dames

are waiting to fall in my arms...

...and you're making me hide

like a dope.

- Now, be reasonable.

- You stay put, will you?

It's your big mouth

that got me into this jam.

Telling everybody

we're going off to war.

So now we're back. We're veterans.

You show your face out there

and so help me, I'll slug you.

Take it easy.

We're both on the same side.

I'm not so sure.

Would you like to come aboard?

- Oh, sure.

- We'd love to.

We brought in 55 boys this trip.

Most of them were ambulatory cases.

They walk off and don't need litter.

- When did you leave Tokyo?

- Forty-seven hours, 1 O minutes ago.

We refueled and changed crews

at Wake in Honolulu.

Look, you've forgotten someone.

NELL:

Rick.

Are you all right?

Don't you think you're a little big

to be playing hide-and-seek.

I don't feel so good.

You scared me half to death.

I thought you were wounded.

Him? Wounded?

He only flies back and forth

between here and Honolulu.

Well, well. I see we've landed.

When you're bragging

around the barracks...

...about how I fell

for your departing hero act...

...remember just one thing.

I think it was a low,

contemptible trick.

Don't worry, kid.

She's just surprised to see you.

She's not gonna be

the only one surprised.

According to the 716 newspapers

that carry Louella Parsons' column...

...you're at the front.

You see, you oversold us, we overdid it,

and now we're all in a spot.

Nothing that can't be fixed.

Just leave everything to me.

Haven't you fixed enough already?

Stay out of this, will you?

Boy, gee, Rick.

He wants me to stay out of it.

How do you like that?

That kis getting ready

for a psycho ward.

You're the boy

who can show him the way.

Yeah.

- In trouble, corporal?

- Yes, sir.

She's mad at me

because I didn't come back wounded.

Oh, I guess she's got a right to be.

Buster, there's no limit

to what a little brainwork can do.

Everything's under control.

Ruth walks me over

to Louella Parsons.

"Miss Parsons," she says,

"Look who I found. Rick's buddy."

I says, "Hi, Louella.

Special orders turned us around

in Honolulu."

She says, "Isn't that wonderful?"

Then everybody ran

to tell Nell the big news.

You're in like a burglar, boy.

Life can be beautiful again.

Well, say something.

This malt tastes like goat's milk

with a goat thrown in.

At a time like this, with love hanging

in the balance with a silken thread...

...you're worried

about a chocolate malt.

You keep acting like this, boy...

...and I think I can spring you

out of the Air Force.
