Week-End in Havana Page #3

pum-pum-pum

Bum, tee-dum, pum

pum-pum-pum

Y ou have oomph

and oomph I can't resist

Oh, when I meet a man

and he's nice-lookin'

I smile at him and say

Hey, what's cookin'

A nd when he holds me tight

and puts a cheek to mine

I feel so terrific

so colossal, so divine

I feel like Mickey Mouse is running

up and down my spine

Bum, tee-dum, pum, pum-pum-pum

I'm completely overcome

Bum, tee-dum, pum

When I love

Bum, tee-dum, pum

When she loves

W hen I dream, I dream, when I fall, I fall

When I thrill, I thrill

W hen I kiss, I kiss

and when I love, I-

Mmm, I love

[ Latin ]

Would you care to dance again?

No. No, thank you. Not right now.

I know my rhumba isn't very good.

You don't rhumba. You fox-trot.

Look, Miss Spencer, I've done my level best

to show you a good time.

I've shown you the sights.

You're at the best nightclub in town.

You have orchids and champagne.

What else do you want?

You wouldn't know.

[ Continues ]

Would it make you any happier

if I made love to you?

Isn't that a little out of your line?

Hmm. Anything to please you.

[ Sighs ] My, you certainly

sweep a girl off her feet.

Look, I want you to enjoy this vacation.

What do you suggest?

Well, for a starter, let's part company.

But you can't just go around alone.

Why not? I can have as dull a time alone

as I can with you.

And besides,

who said I had to be alone?

- Well, good night, Mr. Williams.

- Well, where are you going?

That's what I like about it.

I don't know.

[ Singing In Spanish ]

[ Continues ]

T ropical magic

Strange fascination

Moon of temptation

In a black velvet sky

T ropical magic

Lost in your splendor

Love will surrender

T o a passionate sigh

Whispering shadows

Out of a midnight

W hisper maana

But never good-bye

Music is playing

T ropical magic

You'll have me saying

Adios to my heart

Adios

To my

Heart

[ Latin ]

[ Man ]

Seorita, do not go.

I have seen hundreds of women

standing there...

and I have kept right on smoking.

But you, seorita-

- Are you alone?

- Well, no.

I mean, I- I came with a man,

but- but I'm going home alone.

Oh, well, one of two things happened,

seorita.

You were insulted,

or you were not insulted.

And beyond that,

you are not going home alone.

I am Monte Blanca.

- Uh, shall we go now?

- Oh, but I don't even know you.

[ Laughs ]

Charming, isn't it?

Atouch of mystery adds

a great deal of zest.

All right, Monte. Let's go.

[ Continues ]

[ Ends ]

- Seorita.

- Thank you.

- Seorita.

- Hello.

Much to my amazement,

I have brought you home.

- Yes, you could knock me over with a feather too.

- Really?

- Thanks a lot, Mr. Blanca.

- And what time tomorrow night shall I call?

Oh, you're-you're calling

tomorrow night?

Oh, this is what is known

as a preliminary flirtation.

- And, uh, what's tomorrow night?

- Saturday.

Then I can definitely make it.

It's my maid's night out.

Good. We will go

to the casino again...

but upstairs to the tables,

if you like.

- Oh, it sounds exciting.

- Being with you will be exciting even if we lose.

[ Laughs ]

Well-

- Buenas noches, seorita.

- Uh-

"Bonas"noches.

Oh, excuse me.

You, uh, are sure

she is wealthy?

It is the surest thing

in the whole world.

She has the most expensive suite

in the hotel.

Her clothes-They are the most luxurious

and thinnest I have ever seen.

And if this is not proof enough,

she tipped me only 10 cents.

- She must be very wealthy.

- [ Chuckles ]

You will get your whole payment

in a lump...

and if your information is not accurate,

it will be a lump on the head.

- Seor.

- Good evening.

- Seor Williams, for you.

- Thank you.

Hmm.

- Where can I send a cable?

- I'm sorry, seor. The office is closed.

- Can I take your answer?

- Yes.

To Walter McCracken-

M- C-C-R-A-C-K-E-N.

McCracken Building,

New York City.

No progress.

Girl looking for romance...

but you can't rush nature.

Regards,Jay.

- You got that?

- Yes, seor. And how would you like this sent?

Oh, I think something with a black edge

around it might be appropriate.

[ Latin ]

[ Chattering ]

The one in the middle is the lucky table.

The croupier is color-blind.

Oh, wonderful!

No more bets, please.

Evening, Flores.

[ Flores ] Fourteen, red.

Fourteen, the winner.

- Astack of the blues, please.

- Blues?

- For the young lady. They will match her eyes.

- [ Chuckles ]

- One stack of blacks.

- How much are they?

Who cares?

To you, they are nothing but chips.

[ Man ]

Thirty-three, the winner.

Uh, while you are playing,

I would like to make a call.

- Oh, but don't be too long.

- Oh, I'll be back before you break the bank.

[ Flores ]

Place your bets, please.

[ Continues, Fades ]

[ Chuckles ]

Hello, Boris. How are you?

Glad to see you here, Monte.

Saves me the trouble of sending for you.

Oh, I would have come up yesterday,

only I had not, uh, yet made my arrangements.

Funeral?

No, financial.

[ Chuckles ]

But I am going to pay tonight-

perhaps the whole thing.

It's, uh, exactly $750.

Well, I cannot give it to you this minute, Boris,

but you are going to get it.

You are going to get

more than that.

I, uh, brought

a very rich girl here tonight.

She owns half of America.

She loses thousands every night.

That becomes interesting.

All right. I'll have the croupier suspend

the table limit while you're playing.

If the young lady lives up

to your expectations...

I'll credit your account

with five percent of all she loses.

Well, she will have to lose

a great deal.

Don't you think 10%

is a little more equitable?

I don't want to haggle

with you, Monte.

You'll either get five percent

of the young lady's losses...

or a hundred percent of what

I planned for you before you came in.

[ Laughing ]

Well, five percent is perfectly satisfactory.

- I was just trying to get the best deal I could.

- You have.

[ Chuckles ]

- Well, I'll see you later, eh, Boris?

- Do.

[ Resumes ]

[ Exhales ]

- [ Roulette Ball Rattles ]

- [ Flores ] Fourteen, red. Fourteen, the winner.

That's me. That's me again!

Oh, thank you. Thank you.

Oh, Monte! You were right

about this table being lucky.

Look, I won it all on 14.

Fourteen again!

No, no, no, no. You must not bet

on that again. It could never repeat.

Oh, that's what everybody's

been telling me.

No, a good roulette player

is one who knows how to change.

- Now this time you should bet heavily on eight.

- Eight? Why?

Well, uh, eight and six make 14.

The next time, you bet on six.

It's an infallible system.

Well, you were right

about this being a lucky table...

- so, uh, I'll change to eight.

- Number eight.

- Thank you.

- Uh, a little more.

- Yes, sir.

- [ Chuckles ]

[ Flores ]

No more bets, please.

[ Roulette Ball Rattling ]

[ Flores ] Eight, black.

Eight, the winner.

Oh, that's me.

That's me again!

- Oh, Monte, you're wonderful!

- Uh, yes, I am.

You don't seem very excited,

but I guess you do this every night.
