0:10:27 > 0:10:34- Hey, gorgeous, what are you getting me for Christmas?- Freddie, you wouldn't drink it!- Why the hurry?
0:10:34 > 0:10:41- Personnel sent for me. I think they realise what I do for the store. - This is business. I saw you dance.

0:11:14 > 0:11:20I associate ideas to remember names. "Parish" makes me think of church. Send her in.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Come in, miss.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28- Sit down, Miss Church. - Thank you. But it's "Parish".
0:11:28 > 0:11:36- Polly Parish.- Yes, Parish. You are apparently a conscientious worker, so I wanted to talk to you...personally.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40Well, I was sure you would... sooner or later.

0:11:54 > 0:12:00Unfortunately, he doesn't share the same high opinion of YOU.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- I beg your pardon? - In fact, he wants to fire you.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07- So do I.- He...
0:12:07 > 0:12:13- You what?- As of tonight. You will receive the usual severance pay.
0:12:15 > 0:12:20You may come to the employees' Christmas party, of course!
0:12:20 > 0:12:27- I don't understand. I sell more than anybody in my department! - You oversell more than anyone!

0:12:44 > 0:12:51- who have no idea of the book-keeping expense and bad customer relations you put us to!- But...- That is all!

0:14:59 > 0:15:03Take your finger out of my mouth.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- Your name, please? - Hmm? Polly Parish.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10- Are you employed? - Hmm? JB Merlin.
0:15:10 > 0:15:15Until tonight, that is. I just lost my job. ..He's so cute...
0:15:16 > 0:15:20Oh...it isn't MY baby.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23It was on the doorstep outside! I...
0:15:25 > 0:15:33No, really! You see, there it was, about to roll off the top step, and I just ran over, and...
0:15:33 > 0:15:37We're here to help you, my dear. We're your friends!
0:15:37 > 0:15:40..Look, it isn't mine!
0:15:40 > 0:15:43I wish it were!
0:15:43 > 0:15:47Let me tell you again, so you get this straight.
0:15:47 > 0:15:55I was outside the employment agency and I turned and saw this bundle on your steps. A baby, I thought.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59So I ran over and scooped it up so that I could...
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Well...
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Honest injun!
0:16:03 > 0:16:11Many mothers tell us the babies are not their own but, from experience, we know it's wise to admit the truth.

0:17:12 > 0:17:17And we know that the Merlins are a charitable family...don't we?

0:17:43 > 0:17:48- I will be - it just takes time! What can I do for you, Mr...?- Appleby.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52I'm from the Atkins Foundling Home.
0:17:52 > 0:17:58- Yes?- An employee of yours, a young lady, left a baby with us today.- Yes?
0:17:58 > 0:18:05I checked with your Mr Creely, and she's been discharged! I believe that's why she's abandoned her baby!
0:18:05 > 0:18:10- Mr Merlin, give her back her job. - It's not my department!- Mr Merlin...
0:18:10 > 0:18:17If you saw this mother, denying the parenthood of her own child... it would have touched your heart.
0:18:17 > 0:18:23- It was pitiful!- Suppose you sit down and we discuss it calmly?- Thank you.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Get me Mr Hargraves, please.
0:18:28 > 0:18:33Off you go, Miss Parish - to Mr Dan Merlin himself this time!
0:18:33 > 0:18:40- You mean he's seen the light - he wants to apologise? - What he does is top secret!
0:18:40 > 0:18:43At ease, Mr Hargraves!
0:18:43 > 0:18:47What now - Merlin Junior says a few last words over the body?!
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Here is Miss Parish, Mr Merlin.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00Uh...sit down...MISS Parish?
0:19:00 > 0:19:03Yes, sir. I'm Miss Parish, Mr Merlin.
0:19:03 > 0:19:11- I believe you were discharged today, Miss Parish.- Yes, sir. Of all the ingratitude I've ever heard of...!
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- After the way I've worked... - We want you back.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17The loyalty I've...
0:19:17 > 0:19:23- You... You...you want me back, you say?- That's what I said.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Well, that's more like it!
0:19:26 > 0:19:34- Miss Parish, don't you think you ought to thank Mr Merlin?- Oh...thank you, Mr Merlin.- You're welcome.
0:19:34 > 0:19:40We thought you were trying too hard, overselling. Now we know the reason.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46Well...I was sure SOMEBODY would understand!
0:19:46 > 0:19:51By the way, we're raising your salary 10 a week, as of a week ago.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Well, thank you!
0:19:53 > 0:19:58But getting your job back and a raise is not your REAL Xmas present.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01N-No?
0:20:01 > 0:20:09No, your Christmas present is the greatest gift a woman could have. It's coming to you at home tonight.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Perhaps you ought to thank Mr Merlin again?
0:20:12 > 0:20:18Oh...thanks again! It was enough giving me my job back, Mr Merlin.
0:20:18 > 0:20:25- I want you to know I forgive the store and I never hold a grudge!- That's very big of you.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- Goodbye. - Oh, goodbye, sir. Goodbye, Mr...?
0:20:29 > 0:20:33Merely think of me as your guardian angel!
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Well, goodbye, Santa Claus!
0:20:50 > 0:20:53- BUZZ - Who is it?
0:20:53 > 0:20:57Something from John B Merlin & Son!
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Merry Christmas!
0:21:01 > 0:21:08Holiday greetings from John B Merlin & Son and the Atkins Foundling Home. Oh...
0:21:08 > 0:21:12Don't thank us. We've only done our duty.
0:21:12 > 0:21:17- Just keep doing your duty! You take that baby right out of here!- But...!
0:21:17 > 0:21:20Oh...you're sick!
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Shame on you!
0:21:22 > 0:21:28- Do you realise what you're saying? - Yes, I do - that's not my baby!
0:21:28 > 0:21:35- Do you realise Mr Merlin has given you your job back...- Yes.- ..so that you can raise your child in comfort?
0:21:35 > 0:21:38You want it to be raised as an orphan?
0:21:38 > 0:21:43Oh, now, that's not my baby - I am not its mother!
0:21:43 > 0:21:50- Mrs Wilkins...come!- Now, you take that baby, or it'll be back at the foundling home before you get there!
0:21:50 > 0:21:57I wouldn't try that, if I were you, and I wouldn't leave it elsewhere, because it'll come back to us...
0:21:57 > 0:22:00and...we have its footprints!
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Footprints?!
0:22:04 > 0:22:08I'm not going to inform Mr Merlin of your attitude.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Gee-ee!
0:22:15 > 0:22:19BABY GURGLES
0:22:26 > 0:22:31Now, listen, uh...baby... It's nothing personal, I...
0:22:31 > 0:22:33I'd love to have you around, but...
0:22:33 > 0:22:38Take your finger out of your mouth - you want crooked teeth?
0:22:42 > 0:22:46I really couldn't do right by you... No...
0:22:49 > 0:22:52You see...I'm alone, too!
0:22:52 > 0:22:54..That's a cute nose!
0:22:57 > 0:23:03- Who is it?- The Arthur Murray of the stock department - Frisky Freddie!
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Oh, my!
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Oh, uh... Just a minute, Freddie!
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Uh... Wait just a second!
0:23:13 > 0:23:18There. Now, no biting. Be quiet, baby! That's good.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21- LOUD SCREAM - Oh...!
0:23:21 > 0:23:25That's all I need! ..Just a minute! ..There.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29That's it, baby. Now, be quiet, baby. Shh!
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Please, quiet, huh, baby? Quiet!
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Oh...!
0:23:36 > 0:23:43- Oh, uh...hello. Freddie, I can't... - What's new and exciting, gorgeous - besides me, I mean?
0:23:43 > 0:23:48- Well, uh, Freddie, I... - Hey! Nice joint you've got here!
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Freddie, I can't go out tonight...
0:23:51 > 0:23:56- What do you mean?- Well, I... I think I'm gonna have a headache!
0:23:56 > 0:24:03- Are you kidding? I borrowed my brother's heap so we'd go in style! - Gee, I'm sorry.- Sorry?!- Well...
0:24:03 > 0:24:06Something's...come up!
0:24:06 > 0:24:12Ah, don't be nervous - it's in the bag! Do you hate money?! The band leader's a pal!
0:24:12 > 0:24:15BABY CRIES
0:24:15 > 0:24:18I just spoke to him on the phone.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21BABY CRIES
0:24:21 > 0:24:25- Funny, I thought I heard a baby crying!- H-Here?
0:24:25 > 0:24:31Where was I? Oh, yeah, I checked with my pal again, and we can't lose!
0:24:31 > 0:24:34BABY CRIES
0:24:34 > 0:24:39- You talked to him, huh? What did he say?- He says it's in the bag!- Great!
0:24:39 > 0:24:42I DO hear a baby crying!
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Oh...THAT?
0:24:44 > 0:24:47Next door. Keeps me awake.
0:24:47 > 0:24:52- Sometimes I think I'll go out of my mind!- That's tough.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56Polly, this is not dishonest. It's just fixed!
0:24:56 > 0:25:01You don't think a guy like me would do anything crooked? I'm...
0:25:01 > 0:25:04BABY LAUGHS
0:25:08 > 0:25:12What did it do - crawl through the wall?!
0:25:13 > 0:25:17You mean you didn't see the stork flying through(?)
0:25:17 > 0:25:20Oh...!
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Come on, baby. Upsy-daisy.
0:25:24 > 0:25:29- Is it yours?- No, it isn't mine. - Then where did it come from?
0:25:29 > 0:25:33- I got it for Christmas(!) - This Christmas or last?!
0:25:33 > 0:25:37Freddie, question and answer period is over.
0:25:37 > 0:25:42- I'm not going out tonight and that's that!- It sure is!
0:25:42 > 0:25:45- I got my troubles.- You sure have!
0:25:45 > 0:25:50Well, I can't win the contest without you, so I'll stay! I'm a family man!
0:25:50 > 0:25:55- Goodnight, Freddie. - Hey, wait a minute! Wait a minute!
0:25:55 > 0:26:02- I just meant a nice, quiet evening in with the kiddies! That's not so bad!- Goodnight, Freddie!- I just...
0:26:02 > 0:26:07Hey, I just thought... Old Man Merlin is on TV about now!
0:26:07 > 0:26:12Getting an award - for penny-pinching in the retail business, probably!
0:26:12 > 0:26:17- Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. - Good evening!
0:26:17 > 0:26:23ANNOUNCER: Tonight, we meet two generations of a great family - the Merlins.
0:26:23 > 0:26:30- Big deal(!) - May I present Mr John B Merlin and his son Dan Merlin,
0:26:30 > 0:26:36in the library of their delightful home at 236 East 63rd Street, New York City.
0:26:36 > 0:26:42- ANNOUNCER: Good evening, gentlemen. - Good evening, Bill.- Oh, hi, Mr Rand.
0:26:42 > 0:26:47- JB, I'll bet you have some interesting...- Yes.- Oh, I'll bet(!)
0:26:47 > 0:26:55- Let me first say that the magic word for success in merchandising is decentralisation.- Absolutely, JB(!)
0:26:55 > 0:26:58- We're going out after all.- Yeah.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00See you in the morning, JB!
0:27:00 > 0:27:03You're not taking that along?!
0:27:03 > 0:27:07- Only part-way - come on! - You can't...
0:27:07 > 0:27:10You can't take the baby - it's fixed!
0:27:10 > 0:27:17Our success formula is alert merchandising - to put stores where it is easy to shop.
0:27:17 > 0:27:24- A merchandising man who can't accept the impact of modern living is a dinosaur!- Thank you.
0:27:24 > 0:27:30- Suburban life and the automobile have changed... - Yes, we all agree, JB.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34But now the younger generation. Dan, what...?
0:27:34 > 0:27:41- I...- Dan is first and foremost a real merchandising executive! - I certainly agree with that, but...
0:27:41 > 0:27:49- let's make it personal.- I go along... - I know you like to sing, Dan, so why not give our audience a sample?- OK!
0:27:51 > 0:27:58- Keep your eye on the camera with the red light.- What? - The camera with the red light.
0:27:58 > 0:28:05Dan, have you any special romantic interest you can tell us about? Any one girl?
0:28:05 > 0:28:07Oh, I dunno...
0:28:07 > 0:28:10HE STARTS PLAYING
0:28:10 > 0:28:15Although the love of my life and I have never met, I guess as yet...
0:28:15 > 0:28:18# It wasn't meant to be
0:28:18 > 0:28:24# I'm sure Father Time Hand in hand with destiny
0:28:25 > 0:28:31# Is bound to get around to me
0:28:32 > 0:28:36# From what I say, you can gather
0:28:36 > 0:28:42# I face the future rather
0:28:42 > 0:28:46# Optimistically
0:28:48 > 0:28:52# Someday soon
0:28:54 > 0:28:57# On a strange and magic street
0:28:57 > 0:29:00# We will meet, my love, yes
0:29:00 > 0:29:03# You will come along
0:29:03 > 0:29:11# All the joys That were ever denied me
0:29:11 > 0:29:17# All at once Will be walking beside me
0:29:17 > 0:29:22# Somehow, someday soon
0:29:22 > 0:29:26# My sad heart will change its tune
0:29:26 > 0:29:32# From a blue lament Into a beautiful song
0:29:32 > 0:29:37# Until then, I'll keep waiting
0:29:37 > 0:29:41# Waiting, waiting, waiting
0:29:41 > 0:29:45# Patiently
0:29:46 > 0:29:52# Deep inside, this longing grows
0:29:52 > 0:29:58# So, as the old expression goes
0:29:58 > 0:30:02# Someday soon
0:30:02 > 0:30:06# Can't come too soon
0:30:06 > 0:30:12# For me
0:30:14 > 0:30:20# Deep inside, this longing grows
0:30:20 > 0:30:26# So, as the old expression goes
0:30:26 > 0:30:30# Someday soon
0:30:30 > 0:30:35# Can't come too soon
0:30:35 > 0:30:42# For me. #
0:30:44 > 0:30:51That was beautiful, Dan. And someone else is waiting patiently, so we'd better get back to your father.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07This won't take any time at all!
0:31:12 > 0:31:16Goodbye, baby. You most certainly are cute.
0:31:25 > 0:31:29- I'd like to see Mr Merlin. - Shh!- The young one.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33Would you tell me, madam, in reference to what?
0:31:33 > 0:31:38I can't take care of this baby - it's his responsibility!
0:31:38 > 0:31:43- < But...- He got me into this, so he must get me out!
0:31:43 > 0:31:50- My dear madam, the only way you could see Mr Merlin is on your television set.- Oh, no, you don't!
0:31:50 > 0:31:53< Madam, you cannot leave it there!
0:31:53 > 0:31:57That baby is as much Mr Merlin's as mine! Goodbye, baby!
0:31:57 > 0:32:01- Madam, I cannot accept... - Come on, let's go!
0:32:01 > 0:32:05- Yeah, let's go - here!- All right.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Oh...!
0:32:09 > 0:32:14- Oh, the keys!- Freddie, in the car, the car!- Oh, they're in the car!
0:32:14 > 0:32:17ENGINE SPLUTTERS
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Oh...!
0:32:21 > 0:32:27And now, Mr John B Merlin, on behalf of the National Retail Merchandisers...
0:32:27 > 0:32:31THEY MOUTH
0:32:31 > 0:32:34- ..to present you with... A baby!- Nonsense!
0:32:34 > 0:32:42- Are you out of your mind, Adams? - No, sir.- Well, why...?- A young lady left this for you, sir.- For me?- Yes.
0:32:42 > 0:32:48- I said we were not receiving guests, but...- Where is she? - She left.- Left?! Come on!
0:32:50 > 0:32:53There she goes! We can catch them!
0:32:57 > 0:33:00There they are, sir - at the corner!
0:33:00 > 0:33:07- Great(!) You thought you would have a headache and I got one!- Where are you going?- To drop you off!
0:33:07 > 0:33:12Oh, no, you don't. You promised me some prize money and I'll need it!
0:33:12 > 0:33:19- You think I'm mad, dancing with a friend of the boss?- Don't be silly! I got that baby by mistake,
0:33:19 > 0:33:26- and young Merlin is the only one who can straighten it out!- Look, I don't wanna be SEEN with anyone he knows!
0:33:26 > 0:33:32Well, you can take a chance he won't be dancing at The Pink Slipper!
0:33:32 > 0:33:34That's right!
0:33:34 > 0:33:37Oh...
0:33:38 > 0:33:44- The young lady is a perfect stranger to me, sir.- Not to ME, she isn't!
0:33:48 > 0:33:52JAZZY DANCE MUSIC
0:33:53 > 0:33:56That's their car. They're inside.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04Here you are, sir.
0:34:06 > 0:34:10Nobody gets in without a ticket, buster! How many?
0:34:10 > 0:34:13- Three!- That'll be 3.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21Here's your change!
0:34:21 > 0:34:25DANCE MUSIC CONTINUES
0:34:42 > 0:34:50- How do you find anybody?- What colour dress is your wife wearing? We'll help!- I haven't got a wife!
0:34:50 > 0:34:56Well, don't try and influence us judges with that baby! You dance with a dame, no babies!
0:34:56 > 0:34:59BABY LAUGHS
0:35:03 > 0:35:05That's her!
0:35:24 > 0:35:27- Take this.- Again?
0:35:34 > 0:35:41- Would you like to enter this contest with me?- This is very sudden... Let's go, handsome!
0:35:41 > 0:35:47Give it all you've got, baby, but warm up slow - I've already been sick!
0:36:01 > 0:36:05He's a troublemaker - keep an eye on him!
0:36:06 > 0:36:09Lyle, take the gate!
0:36:13 > 0:36:17Sorry, pal - come back again soon(!)
0:36:17 > 0:36:21I must be crazy - I thought I saw young Merlin!
0:36:21 > 0:36:24You didn't see Old Man Merlin too?!
0:36:29 > 0:36:32Sister, off the floor!
0:36:32 > 0:36:35I said you were through! Come on, out!
0:36:37 > 0:36:40Oh...! Gee, I'm sorry!
0:36:40 > 0:36:44- This is the worst night of my life. - Why, you...!
0:36:44 > 0:36:49- Take your hands off me!- I knew this guy was gonna be trouble!
0:36:52 > 0:36:54Coming right up, mac!
0:36:56 > 0:36:59- Your baby, sir.- Thanks, Adams(!)
0:37:00 > 0:37:08- Hey, bud, we're going inside. If you describe your wife, we'd be happy to...- Oh, shut up!- Excuse me(!)
0:37:29 > 0:37:35- Ah... You said it was in the bag! - How did I know we'd be so good we'd win...
0:37:35 > 0:37:38- first prize?- Oh...
0:37:40 > 0:37:43- Goodnight, Freddie.- Goodnight!
0:37:52 > 0:37:55- Goodnight, Freddie!- Mm-hm...
0:38:08 > 0:38:14- Well, goodnight, Freddie.- How about having a drink together, gorgeous?
0:38:14 > 0:38:19- I haven't any liquor. - You got water!- They...turned it off!
0:38:19 > 0:38:24- You're not going to stand here and let a man die of thirst?- Well... - Water!
0:38:24 > 0:38:26- Water!- Shh!
0:38:26 > 0:38:29- Shh!- Hello, M-M-M-M...
0:38:29 > 0:38:35- Shh!- I'm sorry, I was dying of thirst and Polly wanted a drink! - I...?- I didn't...
0:38:35 > 0:38:38No, you're right. Goodnight, boss!
0:38:38 > 0:38:41Shh!
0:38:41 > 0:38:46- Mr Merlin, may I ask...?- Shh!- (May I ask what you're doing in my...?)
0:38:46 > 0:38:52THE... The landlady was kind enough to let me - us - in out of the cold!
0:38:52 > 0:38:56We've been here for two hours - crying all the time!
0:38:56 > 0:39:01- Well, I'm sorry.- You should be. - Listen...- YOU listen... Come here.
0:39:02 > 0:39:07You are going to listen to me. Your conduct is the worst I've ever seen.
0:39:07 > 0:39:14- Would it interest you to know I'm not the mother?- Denying your own child - that's low!
0:39:16 > 0:39:19- All right - are you through?- No.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22No, I have just one small thing to add.
0:39:22 > 0:39:30You're fired! And when you look for another job, don't give us as a reference, because if you do...
0:39:30 > 0:39:35I'll explain your charming character to them personally!
0:39:35 > 0:39:40- Why, that's...that's persecution! - Call it whatever you want!
0:39:45 > 0:39:49- HE CLEARS THROAT - Miss Parish?
0:39:51 > 0:39:55Have you decided to ask for your job back?
0:39:55 > 0:39:58Or will you let that baby starve?
0:39:58 > 0:39:59Hmm?
0:40:05 > 0:40:09BABY GURGLES
0:40:15 > 0:40:20- I'd like my job back, Mr Merlin. - Well, that's better!
0:40:20 > 0:40:26Miss Parish, I want you to know I'm only doing this for your own good.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30I'm...not as bad as you think.
0:40:30 > 0:40:36Isn't there some legal way to make the father support the baby?
0:40:38 > 0:40:42- I don't want to have anything to do with him.- You don't?
0:40:43 > 0:40:46He used to beat me!
0:40:46 > 0:40:49- He didn't?!- He did.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53See that?
0:40:55 > 0:40:58Coffee pot!
0:40:58 > 0:41:00- Why, that...!- Ah...
0:41:01 > 0:41:07Don't you worry about a thing. The store is behind you...and the baby.
0:41:07 > 0:41:12- Oh, Mr Merlin... The baby didn't do THAT to you!- Oh...no.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15You see, uh...I went dancing, too.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18- Goodnight.- Oh, goodnight!
0:41:18 > 0:41:21- Thank you. Goodnight!- Goodnight.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Gee-ee!
0:41:35 > 0:41:41Well, thanks for the job, anyway. Listen, we'd better get undressed.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44KNOCK ON DOOR
0:41:44 > 0:41:46Oh, my.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49BABY GURGLES
0:41:49 > 0:41:55- I wanna talk to you.- I was just going to bed.- About the baby.- The baby...
0:41:55 > 0:42:00You see, I was fired from my job today, and... You won't believe it.
0:42:00 > 0:42:06Then I got my job back, but the reason... Oh, you won't go for it!
0:42:06 > 0:42:11Then I lost my job, and... The baby came, he was delivered...
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Oh, it's just getting worse!
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Mrs Dugan, what am I going to do?
0:42:24 > 0:42:27Oh, uh...
0:42:28 > 0:42:30Well...
0:42:30 > 0:42:35- you got to take care of your little baby.- Oh, Mrs Dugan!
0:42:35 > 0:42:38Oh... Oh! Mrs Dugan!
0:42:38 > 0:42:43- Mrs Dugan, that's not my little baby!- He looks just like you!
0:42:43 > 0:42:50Hey, you're a cutie! Your mother and me are going to have a lot of fun taking care of you!
0:42:50 > 0:42:54- You seem kinda damp. Seems kinda damp!- Damp?
0:42:55 > 0:42:58- Oh...- What's its name?
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Joan!
0:43:06 > 0:43:09JOHN? That's a nice name!
0:43:23 > 0:43:25Polly. Psst!
0:43:25 > 0:43:30- Oh...- How about putting in a good word for me - to you-know-who?
0:43:30 > 0:43:37- Don't talk so loud - you'll wake me. - Polly, the assistant floor-walker's job is open in this section!
0:43:37 > 0:43:42A word from you to you-know-who and I could stop pushing this stupid truck.
0:43:42 > 0:43:47Miller? Get that truck out of the aisle. Yes, sir!
0:43:49 > 0:43:54That's it, Miss Parish. Don't try too hard. Don't oversell.
0:43:56 > 0:43:58Oh...
0:43:59 > 0:44:03- Crowded today, Dan. - Oh, pardon me for a moment.
0:44:06 > 0:44:08How are you?
0:44:08 > 0:44:11Mmm...I...
0:44:11 > 0:44:15I can hear you all right, but I can't see you.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19Haven't been asleep for two nights.

0:44:25 > 0:44:30- But I got mine so suddenly! - The world is full of surprises.
0:44:33 > 0:44:39- Oh, Dan?- Yes?- Mother and child doing well, I take it? - As well as can be expected.
0:44:39 > 0:44:44- Good morning, Mr Dan!- Good morning. - How is our little mother?
0:44:44 > 0:44:47Beat, Mr Hargraves. Very beat.
0:44:47 > 0:44:49Hargraves. Yes?
0:44:53 > 0:44:57Aren't you short an assistant floor-walker here? Yes.
0:45:00 > 0:45:05On a seniority basis, Fred Miller is entitled to the promotion.
0:45:05 > 0:45:11He's an idiot, but he's been here a long time! Inform the idiot of his good luck.
0:45:11 > 0:45:13But...
0:45:18 > 0:45:22Miller! Yes, sir? I've been watching your work.
0:45:22 > 0:45:26It's...adequate. Thank you, sir.
0:45:26 > 0:45:34Tomorrow, report to me in a blue suit and take a carnation. You follow? Yes, sir! Thank you, sir!

0:45:47 > 0:45:49What...?
0:46:03 > 0:46:04KNOCK ON DOOR
0:46:04 > 0:46:08One more bite. Hup, hup, here we go. ..In!
0:46:08 > 0:46:10R-R-R-Rup!
0:46:10 > 0:46:17Isn't that the most disgusting stuff you've ever tasted? Nobody can cook it like me!
0:46:17 > 0:46:20- KNOCK ON DOOR - Come in!
0:46:20 > 0:46:24- Good evening!- Hi!
0:46:24 > 0:46:26Come on in.
0:46:26 > 0:46:31I was walking through the book department and saw this.
0:46:31 > 0:46:38"How To Bring Up Your Baby Scientifically" by Dr Ernest Egelman. I couldn't put it down!
0:46:38 > 0:46:43I'll probably be too busy taking care of the baby to read it!
0:46:43 > 0:46:45W-Want to sit down?
0:46:47 > 0:46:49OK, let's have a big one.
0:46:49 > 0:46:54- Come on, a big one.- How do you know you're doing that right?
0:46:54 > 0:46:56Uh...
0:46:56 > 0:47:01Well, baby opens his mouth, I put the food in and he swallows it!
0:47:01 > 0:47:04From there on, he's on his own.
0:47:04 > 0:47:09- Come on, now.- Here we are - "Feeding", with a capital F!
0:47:09 > 0:47:11That figures!
0:47:11 > 0:47:14There you go.
0:47:14 > 0:47:17"Now, after the food is prepared,
0:47:17 > 0:47:20"the mother will - A - get a spoon..."
0:47:21 > 0:47:24Could THIS be one(?) Hmm!
0:47:24 > 0:47:27"B - take a spoonful of food and...
0:47:28 > 0:47:30"..place on a piece of gauze."
0:47:32 > 0:47:35- What?- Place on a piece of gauze!
0:47:38 > 0:47:41What for?
0:47:41 > 0:47:45Miss Parish... will you please do as the book says?
0:47:45 > 0:47:52- A doctor with 20 years' experience should know what he's talking about - believe me!- Oh...
0:47:52 > 0:47:55Well...
0:47:55 > 0:47:57Oh...
0:47:57 > 0:47:59Next?
0:47:59 > 0:48:02"And gently rub into the navel."
0:48:11 > 0:48:14"And gently rub into the...
0:48:14 > 0:48:16"navel"!
0:48:18 > 0:48:21Oh, this is ridiculous!
0:48:21 > 0:48:28Miss Parish, you see, it's probably to adjust the temperature of the baby's stomach to the food!
0:48:28 > 0:48:30I think it's very logical!
0:48:31 > 0:48:33Well...
0:48:35 > 0:48:37Well, I'll see...
0:48:40 > 0:48:43Oh, I never heard of such a thing!
0:48:43 > 0:48:50- This book...- Let me see that book! - I read very well - I've done it for years!- I read too, Mr Merlin!
0:48:51 > 0:48:58"Take a spoonful of food and...place on a piece of gauze and gently rub into the navel"!
0:48:58 > 0:49:01THAT is exactly what I said!
0:49:02 > 0:49:07Well, I am not rubbing any food into this baby's navel!
0:49:16 > 0:49:19SHE CLEARS THROAT
0:49:19 > 0:49:23"To relieve gas on a child's stomach,
0:49:23 > 0:49:26"take a spoonful of warm oil and...
0:49:26 > 0:49:31"place on a piece of gauze and gently rub into the navel"!
0:49:36 > 0:49:43- A few Christmas presents from John B Merlin & Son. - Thank you, John B Merlin & Son!
0:49:43 > 0:49:48- I'll put them under the tree.- Come on, I'll put you to sleep. Come on.
0:49:48 > 0:49:50- Oh!- Excuse me.- Pardon me.

0:54:00 > 0:54:06Do you want to come and kick up your heels? Speaking of heels...
0:54:06 > 0:54:09I told you to keep out of this!

0:54:16 > 0:54:21Have you thought of dropping dead? We would step over you.
0:54:21 > 0:54:25- I ought to report you. - Report us both!- Oh...!
0:54:25 > 0:54:28Uh-uh... Think I'm crazy?

0:54:53 > 0:54:56Yes, uh...I'm afraid I am!
0:54:56 > 0:55:02Well, the last thing you said to me, ten days ago, was that you'd call!

0:55:07 > 0:55:11You'll just have to go stag tonight!

0:55:39 > 0:55:42- I sort of hoped, uh...- What?
0:55:42 > 0:55:46- That Dan might give you a buzz. - On New Year's Eve?
0:55:46 > 0:55:51Imagine where he's going - and all the girls who'd like to go with him.
0:55:51 > 0:55:56- Polly, why not tell him the truth about Johnny?- Much too complicated!
0:55:56 > 0:55:59Besides, he'd never believe me.
0:55:59 > 0:56:06- You know, it's funny...- Hmm? - Well, at first I was afraid they wouldn't take Johnny back.
0:56:06 > 0:56:09Now I'm afraid they might!
0:56:10 > 0:56:16- You're really serious about keeping Johnny, aren't you?- He looks like me.
0:56:16 > 0:56:19Come on, you'll be late for the party.
0:56:19 > 0:56:23- You're wasting valuable time. - Oh, they'll wait!

1:10:26 > 1:10:29# Or that a kiss
1:10:29 > 1:10:35# Could take my heart for granted
1:10:35 > 1:10:38# Night after night
1:10:38 > 1:10:44# I've waited and I've wondered Darling, where you are
1:10:45 > 1:10:47# And there you are
1:10:47 > 1:10:52# What a breathless love affair you are
1:10:52 > 1:10:58# I may not know how real Or how unreal
1:10:58 > 1:11:01# This may be
1:11:02 > 1:11:09# I only know I never felt this way
1:11:09 > 1:11:12# Before. #
1:11:22 > 1:11:24Goodnight.
1:11:25 > 1:11:30- Goodnight.- And "Smorgas", for the start of a perfect new year.
1:11:30 > 1:11:33Smorgas to you!
1:11:33 > 1:11:35Well...
1:11:35 > 1:11:37goodnight!
1:11:37 > 1:11:40Goodnight.

1:12:04 > 1:12:07# I never felt
1:12:07 > 1:12:12# I could melt this way before

1:12:56 > 1:12:58Oh, I'm...
1:13:08 > 1:13:11Happy New Year! No...
1:13:11 > 1:13:13Smorgas?
1:13:28 > 1:13:31Watch our property!
1:13:31 > 1:13:34This head is worth more than yours is!
1:13:36 > 1:13:39Don't just stand here - back to...
1:13:43 > 1:13:47You lost your head! Right, stupid, clean it up!
1:13:47 > 1:13:49Hold your breath!
1:13:50 > 1:13:55I've said it before and I'll say it again - he is an idiot!
1:13:55 > 1:13:58Remember, he is YOUR idiot!
1:13:58 > 1:14:03Hiya, gorgeous, did you miss a ball on New Year's Eve!
1:14:03 > 1:14:06- A miss is as good as a mile, they say!- Agh!
1:14:06 > 1:14:14- That's OK, honey - no hard feelings! I still go for the domestic type! I thought this weekend...- Freddie...
1:14:14 > 1:14:21You have the lowest mind and the highest hopes. And if you don't stop bothering me, I'll report you.
1:14:21 > 1:14:26- Hey, now, wait a minute!- Uh-oh, Dan Merlin!- The number one boy, eh?
1:14:26 > 1:14:29We don't want to lose our connections!
1:14:29 > 1:14:35- How's the baby?- Fine, thank you! He sleeps on his stomach all the time.- And you?
1:14:35 > 1:14:43- Well, not on my stomach...but all the time!- In that case, would you like to go for a drive on Sunday?
1:14:43 > 1:14:47I'd love to, but your car may be a little cool for the baby.
1:14:47 > 1:14:51Yes, I...I suppose it would.
1:14:54 > 1:15:00- I'll be in the park Sunday - with all the other mothers.- Oh...
1:15:00 > 1:15:02I'll try to get over.
1:15:02 > 1:15:05Well... Oh...
1:15:07 > 1:15:12- Creely, do you have a personnel problem?- Yes, young Miller.
1:15:15 > 1:15:18His carnation has gone to his head!
1:15:18 > 1:15:25- If it's OK, I'll put him back in stock.- That's up to Mr Hargraves. He's head of the flower brigade!
1:15:25 > 1:15:29Take the controls, Hargraves. Yes, sir!
1:15:32 > 1:15:39Good morning, Mr Hargraves! I trust young Dan didn't have anything troublesome on his mind?
1:15:47 > 1:15:49Do you follow me?
1:15:49 > 1:15:56Miller, we've decided you're an idio...you're inadequate. Report back to the stockroom!
1:15:56 > 1:15:58But...
1:16:04 > 1:16:11I see you got your flower picked. Put this away until summer, BOY! They can't do this!
1:16:11 > 1:16:16I know where the body's buried! So crawl in with it! Grr-r!
1:16:17 > 1:16:19I'll talk to Mr Creely.
1:16:30 > 1:16:33"Mr John...B..."
1:16:45 > 1:16:50HUSKY VOICE: This is for JB Merlin, personally.
1:16:50 > 1:16:56Very good, sir. Will you wait for a reply? Wait? Reply? No! No!
1:16:59 > 1:17:05- Letter for you, sir.- Where's Mr Dan? - He went for a walk in the park, sir.
1:17:08 > 1:17:12"This is to let you know that you're a grandfather."
1:17:20 > 1:17:25"This is to let you know that you're a grandfather." Grandfather?! No-o!
1:17:25 > 1:17:33"If you don't believe me, ask your son and a girl whose name I shan't mention! Yours truly, a friend."
1:17:33 > 1:17:35Grandfather!
1:17:35 > 1:17:38GRANDfather!
1:17:38 > 1:17:41Oh... ADAMS!
1:17:41 > 1:17:45- ADAMS!- Sir?- What park?- I'm sorry? - What park did Mr Dan go to?
1:17:45 > 1:17:51- One downtown, sir.- Downtown is full of parks!- Yes, sir.- Get my hat!- Yes.
1:17:51 > 1:17:54Coat! Tie! Vest! Shirt! Overcoat! Scarf!
1:17:57 > 1:18:03- There we go!- Hi! - Oh, hello, Dan!- Morning, Johnny!
1:18:03 > 1:18:08- HE GURGLES - What does that mean?- Good morning!
1:18:08 > 1:18:10Oh...I beg your pardon, John.
1:18:10 > 1:18:13Well, thank you!
1:18:15 > 1:18:22Oh...the news of my raise came through yesterday. Do I deserve two in a row? How can I ever thank you?
1:18:22 > 1:18:24Answer number one - yes.
1:18:24 > 1:18:32- Answer number two - you needn't try. I had selfish reasons for giving you more pay.- Nothing personal, I hope?
1:18:32 > 1:18:37- Well, sort of. Old John Parish here is involved.- I don't understand.
1:18:37 > 1:18:41Now you can afford a part-time nurse. Hire Mrs Dugan.
1:18:41 > 1:18:46- Johnny won't be on your hands so much.- But I want him on my hands!
1:18:46 > 1:18:53- You seem to have come a long way for a girl who wouldn't admit he was yours.- Well, I...
1:18:54 > 1:18:57He looks like me!
1:18:57 > 1:19:00Doesn't he look like the coffee pot thrower?!
1:19:04 > 1:19:08Yes, I... I suppose he looks like him.
1:19:08 > 1:19:13- Maybe that'll bring him back. He may want...- No, he won't.
1:19:13 > 1:19:19- That baby's mine, Dan, and he'll stay mine. - Yours and the coffee pot thrower's!
1:19:19 > 1:19:26We'd better stop this discussion. I'm not experienced enough to take care of TWO babies!
1:19:27 > 1:19:33- Well... Nice, bright day! Perfect day for the park!- Mr Merlin!- Dad!
1:19:33 > 1:19:38- Polly, this is my father.- How do you do?- How do you do? And who is this?
1:19:38 > 1:19:41This is Miss Parish's little boy.
1:19:43 > 1:19:46A boy!
1:19:47 > 1:19:50Would you mind - if I were careful -
1:19:50 > 1:19:54would you let me hold him, just a minute?
1:19:55 > 1:19:58Of course, Mr Merlin.
1:19:58 > 1:20:01MR MERLIN CHUCKLES
1:20:01 > 1:20:04BABY GURGLES
1:20:04 > 1:20:06I know that chin!
1:20:09 > 1:20:11- What's his name?- Uh...
1:20:11 > 1:20:13John!
1:20:13 > 1:20:16Thanks for that, anyway.
1:20:18 > 1:20:22Is there something I can do for you, sir?
1:20:22 > 1:20:24Oh, you've done it!
1:20:24 > 1:20:31- I wouldn't keep John out much longer. It's chilly. - Dad? You're acting strangely.
1:20:31 > 1:20:35- What's the matter?- I will discuss this with you at home.
1:20:35 > 1:20:39Good day, uh...MISS Parish.
1:20:44 > 1:20:46Oh, no! Excuse me!
1:20:46 > 1:20:48Dad!
1:20:48 > 1:20:52Dad! Wait a minute! Wait! Wait!
1:20:57 > 1:21:00Oh-h-h!
1:21:03 > 1:21:05Oh, Johnny!
1:21:05 > 1:21:08You trap everybody!
1:21:12 > 1:21:14- Look here...!- Now...!
1:21:14 > 1:21:17- Morning, sir.- Good morning, Adams.
1:21:24 > 1:21:27BOTH TOGETHER: Now...!
1:21:27 > 1:21:33- I- do the talking. 20 years I've been waiting. What for? A grandson!
1:21:33 > 1:21:35But, Dad...
1:21:36 > 1:21:38Oh, excuse me, sir.
1:21:46 > 1:21:53- Dad...- My grandson needs a decent home! Respectable married parents! - Listen...- Not until you're honest!
1:21:53 > 1:21:55Just listen...
1:21:57 > 1:22:00Oh...excuse me, sir.
1:22:09 > 1:22:17- Now...- Dan, you're going to marry that girl and bring my grandson into this house!- You haven't any grandson!
1:22:17 > 1:22:24- Can't you understand? - Do you think I'm in my dotage?! I saw the baby, the girl and you!
1:22:24 > 1:22:31And I have other information - a letter! I'd know that baby anywhere. He looks exactly like me!
1:22:31 > 1:22:38I don't know if you need a psychiatrist - you may - but you certainly need glasses!
1:22:38 > 1:22:43Oh, do I? Let me tell you what I'm going to do, with or without glasses.
1:22:43 > 1:22:51I'm going to have my grandchild, in spite of you or his mother! Even if I have to go to the Supreme Court!
1:22:51 > 1:22:57- You are the stubbornest man I ever saw!- Don't you dare leave without my permission!
1:23:01 > 1:23:04Haven't we any spoons in this house?!
1:23:04 > 1:23:06Oh... Excuse me, sir.
1:23:08 > 1:23:11KNOCK ON DOOR
1:23:11 > 1:23:13(Just a minute!)
1:23:16 > 1:23:19- Hi!- Hi.
1:23:20 > 1:23:22Oh...
1:23:24 > 1:23:27Don't laugh - the joke may be on you!
1:23:27 > 1:23:35- What?- My father wants the baby. He's probably sending for lawyers. - He can't! Johnny belongs to me!
1:23:35 > 1:23:40- Then dig up that coffee pot thrower to testify...- I... I can't.
1:23:40 > 1:23:43You must take me to see your father!
1:23:43 > 1:23:51You don't understand. He's gone off the reservation and he's doing war whoops! ..He wanted me to marry you.
1:23:51 > 1:23:57He wanted to set up a ready-made family just so he'd have a grandson.
1:23:57 > 1:24:00He's gone crazy!
1:24:01 > 1:24:03Well...
1:24:03 > 1:24:07he must be... if he thought I'D marry you!
1:24:07 > 1:24:11- Oh, Polly...I didn't mean it that way!- Please go!
1:24:11 > 1:24:17- I didn't realise how that sounded! - The baby's taking... Please go!
1:24:17 > 1:24:19- Polly...- Please!
1:24:51 > 1:24:54Mrs Dugan, I'm in terrible trouble!
1:24:56 > 1:25:03- I think I'll have to leave town. He's getting lawyers. He's going to take Johnny!- Who, young Mr Merlin?
1:25:03 > 1:25:08No, old Mr Merlin. He thinks Johnny's his grandson!
1:25:08 > 1:25:11- Ain't he?- No!
1:25:11 > 1:25:16You see, that day on my lunch hour, I just happened to be going...
1:25:16 > 1:25:20Oh, I wish I could explain, Mrs Dugan, but I...
1:25:20 > 1:25:25- Oh...- That's Mike, my sister's son, down from Harvard for the weekend.
1:25:25 > 1:25:31Miss Parish is the one with Johnny. ..Harvard - they all look that way!
1:25:31 > 1:25:37- Hi.- Hi!- He'll send someone to ask me questions and I won't be able to answer them!
1:25:37 > 1:25:45Miss Parish, this situation suggests that if your infant had a father, there would be no need for concern!
1:25:45 > 1:25:49- They generally do, you know. - I kn...
1:25:51 > 1:25:54Yes...that's right!
1:25:54 > 1:25:58Yeah... we just need an old man for Johnny!
1:26:01 > 1:26:07No, I'm too young and innocent! Hey, Daddy, where's the cigars? What cigars?!
1:26:07 > 1:26:11HE WHISTLES
1:26:11 > 1:26:14- Miller! I want to talk to you. - Yes, sir?
1:26:14 > 1:26:22- You know Miss Parish well, don't you?- Polly? I hardly know her name!- Who's the father of her baby?
1:26:22 > 1:26:28- Not me! - Did you ever meet the father? - No, sir. I don't think there is one!
1:26:28 > 1:26:33- What?!- I think she got it like... winning a raffle!
1:26:33 > 1:26:40- Miller?- Yes, sir?- Would you like your carnation back?- Would I?! - All right, come with me.- Yes, sir.
1:26:48 > 1:26:53- We have Mr Wharton on the phone, sir. - Wharton? Hold this. Don't drop it.
1:26:55 > 1:27:02- Hello.- Mr and Mrs Clancy are here. - Never heard of them. Throw them out! ..Wharton, where are you? Skiing?!
1:27:02 > 1:27:07- A lawyer, your age?- It's about the baby.- I need you here. Something...
1:27:07 > 1:27:14MY baby? Well, show them in! ..No, Wharton, I wasn't talking to you. I haven't had a baby!
1:27:15 > 1:27:18Please be seated.
1:27:23 > 1:27:27Mrs Clancy? I thought you were Miss Parish.
1:27:27 > 1:27:35Oh, that's the name I go by at the store. Mr Clancy - Mike - and I have been married for two years.
1:27:35 > 1:27:39Y-Yes, sir. Two years. Give or take a few weeks.
1:27:39 > 1:27:46- Your son told us there seems to be some misunderstanding about...our baby.- YOUR baby?
1:27:46 > 1:27:50Yes, sir. Mrs Clancy is the mother and I, of course...
1:27:50 > 1:27:55I hope that clears up any wrong ideas you may have had.
1:27:57 > 1:28:01It's as though there had been a death in the family.
1:28:06 > 1:28:09Now, then, Dad, here is the father!
1:28:09 > 1:28:15Uh, Mr Merlin, my wife - Miss Parish - is a...is...is...
1:28:15 > 1:28:20is a very nervous woman, and...and your son told me...
1:28:20 > 1:28:24that you...you want to take our son away from us.
1:28:24 > 1:28:26Uh...
1:28:26 > 1:28:29You scared Miss Parish!
1:28:29 > 1:28:36Mr Merlin, just how much, I ask you, are we supposed to give up for the store?
1:28:36 > 1:28:39- Hmm?- See him?
1:28:39 > 1:28:45That's the father SHE brought round! You two have slipped up - you've got one too many!
1:28:47 > 1:28:53- So...you finally showed up? - I was unable to arrive more promptly - I am at university!
1:28:53 > 1:29:00- That was charming, running out on her, so you could go to school(!) - Dan, it's all over. The jig is up!
1:29:02 > 1:29:04Come here.
1:29:04 > 1:29:07You know what this is?
1:29:07 > 1:29:13- As an assumption, I'd say a coffee pot! - That's a good assumption from you!
1:29:13 > 1:29:18- Ow!- You can't do that!- Who's going to stop me?- You're not impressing me!
1:29:18 > 1:29:26- As for you, I'm going to prosecute you for...something!- Mr Merlin, your son made me do it - HE'S the father!
1:29:26 > 1:29:30- HE'S the father! - I'm not, I'm a Harvard man!
1:29:30 > 1:29:34Wait...I don't care who the father is - I'M the grandfather!
1:29:37 > 1:29:39Sir, "Mother" just left.
1:29:39 > 1:29:42- Left?!- She'll take the baby!
1:29:42 > 1:29:46THEY ALL SHOUT
1:29:47 > 1:29:49You're a Harvard man?!
1:30:15 > 1:30:23- Which tenant do you want?- You know! - She's gone!- Where's my grandson?- Gone too!- She hasn't had time to go!
1:30:23 > 1:30:26- Hasn't had time! - Go ahead - I've got the key!
1:30:26 > 1:30:33- Mr Dugan, I must see her. - I'm not going to bandy words with you - where's that child?
1:30:33 > 1:30:40- Where is my grandchild? Answer me, woman! I am John B Merlin, chairman of the company!- Mrs Dugan...
1:30:40 > 1:30:45I have money, lawyers and a vindictive personality!
1:30:45 > 1:30:50- Mrs...- Now I've explained to a woman of limited brains, what do you say?
1:30:50 > 1:30:53Where did you get that hat, John?!
1:30:55 > 1:30:58BABY GURGLES
1:31:01 > 1:31:05Polly? Mrs Dugan, please, she must be...
1:31:05 > 1:31:09Hello, darling, coochy-coochy-coochy!
1:31:09 > 1:31:14- You're old enough for a grandfather, anyway!- Thank you! ..Coochy-coochy!
1:31:21 > 1:31:23Why don't you leave me alone?
1:31:23 > 1:31:29- I can't.- Well, you'll have to from now on! Go away!- I can't.
1:31:29 > 1:31:35You're not going to get Johnny - you, your father or anybody! I love him! He looks like me!
1:31:35 > 1:31:41- My father says Johnny looks like HIM.- Let me tell you something...
1:31:41 > 1:31:47- I'm listening.- I found Johnny, and finders are keepers! You just try to get him!
1:31:47 > 1:31:53- That's the other Merlin. I'm the young one!- Mr Merlin, you can believe it or not.
1:31:53 > 1:32:01I was looking for a job - and Johnny was on the steps of the home... You wouldn't believe it. Nobody does.
1:32:01 > 1:32:03- I do.- Oh, sure you...
1:32:03 > 1:32:08- You do?- Now, I have something to tell YOU.- What?
1:32:08 > 1:32:11I'M the father of that baby.
1:32:12 > 1:32:15You are?
1:32:15 > 1:32:17Dan?
1:32:17 > 1:32:21That's the first true thing you've said all day!
1:32:23 > 1:32:27# Into my life
1:32:27 > 1:32:30# Came a bundle of joy
1:32:31 > 1:32:38# Now the joy of my life Is to share it all with you
1:32:39 > 1:32:43# And what will we find
1:32:43 > 1:32:47# In a bundle of joy?
1:32:47 > 1:32:50# We will find peace of mind
1:32:50 > 1:32:53# And most of our dreams come true
1:32:57 > 1:33:00# There will be smiles
1:33:00 > 1:33:04# Intermingled with tears
1:33:04 > 1:33:11# And those promising years We can both look forward to
1:33:12 > 1:33:16# And so, aren't we
1:33:16 > 1:33:21# A fortunate girl, a fortunate boy?
1:33:21 > 1:33:24# To share a bundle of joy
1:33:24 > 1:33:30# That's wrapped with blessings from above
1:33:30 > 1:33:33# And tied with a ribbon
1:33:33 > 1:33:39# Of everlasting
1:33:39 > 1:33:43# Love! #
