Oh, Lyonel, would you,

uh, get my bag please?.

-Yes, major. Major Milvaine?.

-Yes.

You`re coat is dirty.

You want me to brush you off?.

No, thanks. I`ve been brushed off.

Hello, Major Tommy.

Oh, hello, Mister Knudsen,

and goodbye.

-Where do you go?.

-To Darwin Field.

I`m going to be stationed there.

My young friend...

...I know that you will be unhappy

for a while...

...but you mustn`t be unhappy for long.

-You must fall in love again.

-Yeah.

And you will.

Anyhow, you`ll try to.

Yes, yes, l`ll try.

Goodbye, Mister Knudsen.

-Goodbye and good luck, Major Tommy.

-Thank you.

[DOORBELL BUZZES]

-Oh, Mr. Delbar. Come in.

-May I use your phone?.

Of course.

Hello. Hello, get me Austin Demmering

in Los Angeles...

...Kimball 2-8-9-8.

I`ll hold the wire.

Oh, thanks.

Get that other little matter settled?.

This is it. I`m getting an annulment.

Yeah, I thought you would.

-What`s it going to cost you?.

-Nothing.

Hmm. That`s fair enough.

Uh, hello, Austin, Bob Delbar.

What do I have to do

to get my marriage annulled?.

Oh, Bob, you are not married again?.

You can`t be married.

You aren`t divorced.

You got the divorce a year and a half ago.

I know, but I never picked up

the final papers and--

No, no, it`s not as bad

as you think it is.

Now, uh,

take care of this for me right away.

Both, the final decree and the annulment.

You need a drink.

Oh, thanks.

Well, better luck next time.

Thanks.

All right.

-Will you get a car for me, Lyonel?.

-Yes, Mrs. Delbar.

I`ll be out as soon as I say goodbye

to Mr. Knudsen.

He`s going to buy me singing lessons.

Isn`t he the nicest man?.

Indeed, he is.

Well, goodbye, Mr. Knudsen.

You`ve been very kind.

-You`re leaving?.

-Yes.

Alone?.

Everything`s over.

-Goodbye.

-Goodbye.

Oh, uh, Mrs. Delbar...

...excuse my curiosity.

But where do you go?.

Home.

On your way home,

you pass Darwin Field?.

Yes.

You are stopping there maybe?.

No, I think not.

I think l`ll wait a while.

Then someday, when everything

gets straightened out...

...maybe Darwin Field

will come to me.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

It`s your move now.

Hello, give me Darwin Field.

I want to talk to Major Thomas Milvaine.

Where shall I stand?.

Right inside the gate.

And please, don`t forget to move

your mouth and your arms.

-Ready?.

-Contact.

-Hit it.

DORSEY:
Okay.

[PLAYlNG "" PLEASE DON`T SAY NO""]

Hoby, turn off the radio, dear.

-Huh?.

-The radio.

Oh, yes, dear.

It`s turned off.

Well, I can still hear it.

So can l.

-Funny.

-Funny?. It`s uncanny.

NlLS [SlNGlNG] :

Please don`t say no

Say maybe

Or say come back in the spring

Say any old thing

But don `t say no

Please don `t say no

`Cause, baby

I`ve so much love to impart

It`s making my heart overflow

Be sweet and kind

And keep this thought in mind

While you think it over

Great loves from little friendships grow

Don `t, please don `t say no

Say maybe

-There`s a man singing.

-He may be crazy.

No, it` s T ommy.

You didn ` t tell us he could sing too.

NlLS:

Right now I`d settle for less

Because in time, baby

He has an accent.

What does it matter

if they love each other?.

How do you suppose he does that?.

Sings and kisses at the same time?.

I have no idea.

Come on, baby

Don `t say no

And don `t say maybe

Make up your mind and say

Yes
