Waterloo Bridge Page #7

- Yes, quite correct, sir.

- Eighty-eight shillings.

- That's 4.08.

- Yes, that's what I make it.

Here's 6 pounds.

That'll pay you what she owes you

and two weeks in advance.

Oh, thank you, sir. And God bless you.

- Please give me a receipt.

- Yes, gladly, sir.

- Make it out that you received it from her.

- Yes, sir.

There you are, sir.

Where would I be likely to find her?

Oh, anywhere along The Strand,

Leicester Square, Piccadilly.

Then there's always Waterloo Bridge.

A good many other hangs about there to try

and get the soldiers coming in on leave.

- How odd. Did you notice it?

- What?

She seems to have left a note.

- For me?

- Don't say who it's for.

Just says, ''I can't do it. Goodbye.''

That's all.

Of course, it's none of my business, sir,

what you do and what you don't do...

...but I know her and I know her kind

to make cost.

And if you take my advice, when you do

see her, you'll take that receipt...

...and you'll throw it in her painted face and

then you'll have no more to do with her.

But traffic with women like her only leads

to sin, and sin leads to suffering...

...and a soldier like you should have

enough of suffering in this war...

...without being contaminated

and robbed by the likes of...

Just shut your dirty face!

Can you help me out, governor?

Here you are, governor.

Come on, governor. Can you help me out?

Come on, governor.

Here you are. Here you are.

What do you think this is,

the Garden of Eden?

We had a lovely time in France.

Hey, what do you mean?

- Overhead. Take cover.

Take cover.

Myra, I've been looking for you for hours.

Why'd you come here? It's not safe.

I wanted to see you pass by.

I didn't think you'd notice me.

Listen, I've only got 10 minutes

to catch my train.

Here, take this.

I've seen Mrs. Hobley. It's a receipt for

your rent. It covers two weeks in advance.

Here's some money

to keep you going for a week.

Once I get to the front, I'll arrange

my pay and everything...

...and then, if anything happens to me,

well, you'll be all right.

Roy...

...do you know why

I've been trying not to marry you?

Mrs. Hobley told me.

Told you everything?

Myra, I don't care. You gotta marry me.

It wasn't your fault. You had to do it.

It's all over now, Roy.

Catching the 10:
27 train with us?

- Come on, lady, you've gotta move him.

- It's all right, officer. He's coming.

I'll catch it if you promise

to marry to me.

If you don't all the MPs

won't make me catch that train.

Tell your friend you'll marry him.

You don't wanna get a soldier shot,

do you?

Come on, governor.

Hook us up...

- You better go, Roy.

- Will you marry me?

She'll marry you.

Now, soldier, come with me.

Myra, will you?

If you hang around here much more,

we're all gonna get blown up...

...and it won't matter

if she marries you or not.

Myra.

All right, Roy.

I'll marry you.

Goodbye.

Goodbye, darling.

I'll think of you always.

Every minute.

Come on, sonny.

Cheerio, darling.

Heigh-ho.

Goodbye, Roy.
