OH, THANK YOU, RICCO.

MUCHAS GRACIAS.

[ Door Slams ]

WHAT A PLACE, HENRY !

APPARENTLY YOU CAN'T EVEN

GO SHOPPING WITHOUT GETTING

ARRESTED FOR NO REASON AT ALL.

IT'S ABSOLUTELYDISGRACEFUL.

I ONLY WISH I'D BEEN THERE.

WELL, ANYTHING

MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED.

IT MIGHT INDEED.

I DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD

RISK IT AGAIN. THE WHOLE PLACE

IS TOO PICTURESQUE BY HALF.

[ Horn Blowing ]

EVERYTHING OKAY ?

EVERYTHING, RICCO, IS VERY

GRATIFYINGLY... OKAY.

[ Sighs ]

OH !

[ Horn Continues Blowing ]

YOU'RE NOT ALTOGETHER

HAPPY THESE DAYS, MAUD,

ARE YOU ?

OH, YES, I AM, HENRY.

IT'S ONLY THAT--

I KNOW.

YOU'RE RESTLESS.

I'M AWAY SO MUCH.

WHEN I'M AWAY, THAT MEANS

YOU'RE ALONE,

AND WHEN YOU'RE ALONE,

YOU FEEL, NATURALLY,

A LITTLE LONELY.

AND THAT MAKES YOU

A LITTLE DISSATISFIED.

ISN'T IT SOMETHING

LIKE THAT ?

WELL--

YES, HENRY,

I THINK IT IS.

TIME HANGS HEAVY FOR YOU.

YOU HAVEN'T ENOUGH

TO OCCUPY YOURSELF.

IT'S QUITE NATURAL.

A LOT OF WOMEN:

GET LIKE THAT.

DO THEY, HENRY ?

MM.

BUT TRIPS TO KALIK

AND THINGS LIKE THA AREN'T REALLY THE ANSWER.

WE MUST STRIKE A THE ROOT OF THE MATTER.

HOW DO YOU MEAN ?

I MEAN, DARLING,

JUST THIS:
I--

I WANT YOU:

TO BE HAPPY.

YOU'RE A WOMAN,

A NATURAL WOMAN, WITH

A WOMAN'S INSTINCT--

NOW IS IT ALL CLEAR ?

WELL, NO, HENRY.

WELL, MY DEAR,

IT WILL BE.

IT WILL BE.

[ Baby Crying ]

[ Crying Continues ]

[ Crying Continues ]

HAPPY, DARLING ?

OH, YES, HENRY.

VERY HAPPY.

[ Gurgling ]

SO LONG, CHAPS.

OH !

THERE'S NEVER

A DULL MOMENT, NOW.

WHAT, WITH THESE TWO ?

GOOD-BYE.

GOOD-BYE, DARLING.

[ Man ]

HE SEEMS TO HAVE HAD

AN ANSWER TO EVERYTHING.

A GENIUS.

YES, BUT--

DASH IT ALL, HE DIDN' DO ANYTHING CRIMINAL.

UNETHICAL, PERHAPS,

BUT NOT A THING PEOPLE

ARE SHOT FOR.

A CRIMINAL ?

HE WAS A SAINT.

HE MAKE EVERYBODY HAPPY.

MRS. ST. JAMES,

HAPPY IN GIBRALTAR

WITH THE HAPPY CHILDREN.

MADAME ST. JAMES,

IN KALIK, HAPPY...

WITH THE DANCING AND

MAKING THE GOOD TIME--

TOTAL PARADISE,

IN FACT.

PARADISE.

- THEN WHAT WENT WRONG ?

- PLEASE DON'T ASK.

- IT'S TOO PAINFUL.

- BUT I'VE GOT TO KNOW !

[ Sighing ]

WELL, CHILDREN GROW UP,

AND THEY GO BACK

TO ENGLAND TO SCHOOL.

SO LONG, CHAPS.

[ Whimpering ]

OH, DON'T WORRY,

MY DEAR.

UNCLE LAWRENCE AND AUNT ETHEL

WILL TAKE GOOD CARE OF THEM.

I'VE THOUGHT ABOUT THIS MOMEN A LOT, DARLING, AND I'VE

REALIZED HOW YOU WOULD FEEL--

EMPTY AND A LITTLE SAD--

WELL, NOT REALLY--

SO I HAD AN IDEA.

WHAT ?

CLOSE YOUR EYES.

WHAT FOR ?

NO, GO ON.

CLOSE THEM.

OH, HENRY.

HOW EXCITING !

SO, IT'S

THE VERY LATEST MODEL.

QUITE DIFFERENT FROM

THAT OLD ONE YOU'VE GOT.

IT'S ALL ELECTRIC.

YOU JUST...

PLUG IT IN...

[ Panting ]

AND THIS PEDAL:

CONTROLS THE POWER--

[ Motor Whirring ]

YOU'VE GOT BOTH HANDS FREE--

[ Motor Stops ]

AND THIS GADGET HERE--

LET ME SEE--

HE DID TELL ME:

WHAT IT WAS FOR--

THANK YOU, HENRY.

THANK YOU:

VERY, VERY MUCH.

THE TROUBLE WITH THE HUMAN RACE

IS THAT IT'S ENTIRELY SUBHUMAN.

[ Both Laughing ]

WELL, THERE PROFESSOR,

I MUST RAISE A SMALL

CRY OF PROTEST.

I IGNORE IT.

MANKIND HAS CONSISTENTLY

MISUSED SCIENCE...

EVER SINCE PROMETHEUS

BROUGHT DOWN FIRE FROM HEAVEN.

PEDRO !

SOME FIRE FROM HEAVEN

FOR THE PROFESSOR'S CIGAR !

IN MY OPINION, HE--

IT IS TRUE THAT--

I BEG YOUR PARDON--

I BEG YOUR PARDON.

AFTER YOU.

I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY

THAT THE ONLY HOPE

FOR CIVILIZATION IS--

THERE ISN'T ANY !

IS THAT EVERY DEVICE OF SCIENCE,

RADIO, TELEVISION, ALL OF THEM,
