0:02:09 > 0:02:12Renoir is famous for his paintings of children,

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Here, we have a Corot.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19In this painting the foliage, far more than any signature,

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Hey! Hey...Oh, no!

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Griggs, you can't do that to me.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49THE STATE DEPART...

0:04:51 > 0:04:53The State Department has been trying to reach you.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55I don't care who's been trying to reach me.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57I was in right in the middle of a... Thing.

0:04:57 > 0:04:58It's about the Economic Mission to France.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01The secretary must know your decision about going.

0:05:01 > 0:05:02I was going great! I was...

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Jervis, it's beyond my understanding how a man

0:05:04 > 0:05:07who rules the controlling interest in 34 separate corporations

0:05:07 > 0:05:11can sit all by himself wasting his time beating these silly tom toms?!

0:05:11 > 0:05:12All by myself?! Listen, I have one

0:05:12 > 0:05:14of the finest record collections in the country!

0:05:14 > 0:05:17I play with the very best bands!

0:05:17 > 0:05:19My father used to get up at six o' clock every morning

0:05:19 > 0:05:21to train carrier pigeons, most of whom never came back.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Did you consider that childish nonsense?

0:05:23 > 0:05:25Of course not. That was his hobby.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26Hobby my foot. That's the way he got his kicks!

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Now, if you don't mind, flip that record.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31- I beg your pardon?- Flip it. Turn it. You know. Over.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Look, the Secretary must have your answer.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36The Mission leaves tomorrow night from Idlewild Airport!

0:05:36 > 0:05:37The seriousness of the problem...

0:05:37 > 0:05:39I thoroughly understand the seriousness

0:05:39 > 0:05:40of the French Economic situation.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Vital lag in industrial production,

0:05:42 > 0:05:44coal-mining output can be stepped up,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46electric Kilowatt hour consumption not up to its potential.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Even the agricultural programme,

0:05:48 > 0:05:51of which France has always been the European leader, can be increased.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Now, flip that record.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Anything else?

0:06:00 > 0:06:03Yes, just sit there and listen.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46Certainly.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Mr Bronson happens to be our expert on tractors and farm machinery!

0:08:24 > 0:08:26And if he can't get us out of here, no-one can.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Thank you for that vote of confidence!

0:08:29 > 0:08:30All ready, Sergeant.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44Well, I think we've finally struck firm ground!

0:08:44 > 0:08:49I think you've struck oil, but you can have my share!

0:08:49 > 0:08:51Do you mind if I go up the road apiece to see

0:08:51 > 0:08:53if I can find a farmhouse or a telephone or something?

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Good, I knew you wouldn't.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Griggs, why don't you break out that last bottle of brandy.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00Everybody could use a drink. Right, Mrs Carrington?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Well...

0:09:02 > 0:09:05I don't know what the President could have been thinking of

0:09:05 > 0:09:07when he appointed that man to this commission.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33- Bonjour.- Bonjour, monsieur.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38- Monsieur?- Oh, bonjour, Madame.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40Je m'appelle Pendleton.

0:11:40 > 0:11:44Oh, an American. How do you do, Mr Pendleton? I am Mme Savanne.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Well, that takes the strain off my French!

0:11:46 > 0:11:48I wonder, have you a telephone?

0:11:48 > 0:11:49Telephone?

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Oh, no, Monsieur.

0:11:51 > 0:11:52Why do you need one?

0:11:52 > 0:11:54I'm with a group of people and

0:11:54 > 0:11:57our car skidded off the road into a ditch.

0:11:57 > 0:11:58No!

0:11:58 > 0:12:00No-one's hurt, it's just that we can't get the car out.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Is there a garage nearby?

0:12:04 > 0:12:05For whom?

0:12:05 > 0:12:07The only car around here for miles

0:12:07 > 0:12:10is the one that have belongs to our gardener.

0:12:10 > 0:12:11That's wonderful!

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Oh, you should see it!

0:12:13 > 0:12:14It was left here after the war.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17- A jeep?- No, not that war.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19The one before it!

0:12:19 > 0:12:21But still, it would be better than nothing.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23I'd be very glad to pay for the use of it.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25I think you'd better see it first.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28- We'll push it round the front. - Push it?

0:12:28 > 0:12:30Oh, only to start it. After that...

0:12:30 > 0:12:33..it marches!

0:12:33 > 0:12:35Julie! Julie!

0:12:35 > 0:12:37Oui, Madame?

0:12:37 > 0:12:41- As-tu vu Emile?- Il travaille dans les pommes de terre.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- Merci bien.- I was watching that girl.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46She seems quite unusual.

0:12:46 > 0:12:47She has a wonderful with children.

0:12:47 > 0:12:51Perhaps that is because she is one of them. I myself found her.

0:12:51 > 0:12:52And named her.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54- She has lived her whole 18 years here.- Is that so?

0:12:54 > 0:12:57But that is not getting your car out of the ditch.

0:12:57 > 0:12:58I will fetch the gardener,

0:12:58 > 0:13:00- he's working with the potatoes. - Thank you.

0:14:00 > 0:14:05- I have spoken to the gard... - Sssh.

0:14:06 > 0:14:07Oh, yes.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09Every once in a while one meets a person

0:14:09 > 0:14:10who has it in her to take life

0:14:10 > 0:14:13and make something wonderful of it!

0:14:13 > 0:14:15It seems a shame...

0:14:15 > 0:14:16Oh, I don't mean that this

0:14:16 > 0:14:19isn't a wonderful place or a good life.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Don't apologise. I do my job very well

0:14:21 > 0:14:22and I know Julie will do it even better.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Julie what?- Julie Andre.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28But for a young woman to spend her life here...!

0:14:28 > 0:14:32- She's so attractive. Surely there must be some young man?- Yes!

0:14:32 > 0:14:34There is the widowed farmer who needs a wife.

0:14:34 > 0:14:35He sells us our eggs every week.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Lately he gives us an extra dozen,

0:14:37 > 0:14:39free of charge.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41I am very, very nervous. You know,

0:14:41 > 0:14:44we need eggs for the children, and yet...

0:14:44 > 0:14:46Handkerchiefs too, eh?

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Oh, you have noticed our gingham!

0:14:49 > 0:14:52A little while back, we were notified we were going to receive

0:14:52 > 0:14:542,000 yards of cloth.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57Oh, Monsieur, we were SO excited!

0:14:57 > 0:15:00And then it came...

0:15:00 > 0:15:02..ALL blue-and-white check!

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Oh, sometimes I wish charity would

0:15:04 > 0:15:06not be so mechanical, so cold, so...

0:15:06 > 0:15:08..all blue-and-white?

0:15:08 > 0:15:11Precisely! Oh, the car is waiting, Monsieur!

0:15:11 > 0:15:13After all, that is what I came for, isn't it?

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Yes, but this car is not very obedient.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19You'd better think twice before you even get into it.

0:15:37 > 0:15:42CAR SPLUTTERS AND POPS OMINOUSLY

0:15:51 > 0:15:55CRASH!

0:16:04 > 0:16:08THE CAR FINALLY GIVES UP THE GHOST AND DIES

0:16:10 > 0:16:11Hi, Alec!

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Stop making noises like an ambassador, Alec,

0:16:20 > 0:16:21and answer the question.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24How do I go about adopting a French orphan?

0:16:24 > 0:16:28Now, look, Jerv. You stumbled into some orphanage, you're tired,

0:16:28 > 0:16:31you've been cooped up with the same people for a couple of weeks now.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32All of a sudden, you see the

0:16:32 > 0:16:34bright, shining faces of these unwanted children

0:16:34 > 0:16:35and you catch on fire!

0:16:35 > 0:16:37Next thing I know, you arrive here

0:16:37 > 0:16:38in a beat-up old jalopy,

0:16:38 > 0:16:39you bang into my Cadillac...

0:16:39 > 0:16:41That's the only way I could stop.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43I told you that before, the car had no brakes.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45Now, let's get to it. What red tape do we have to cut?

0:16:45 > 0:16:48Jervis, even you can't go leaping about

0:16:48 > 0:16:50from country to country adopting orphans.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53I am not leaping about. It's only one country and one orphan!

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Will you please stop stalling and get started?!

0:16:55 > 0:16:57All right, Jervis. We can try.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Try?! Don't give me that. Any time the American Ambass...

0:17:00 > 0:17:03OK, OK! What's the name of the orphanage?

0:17:03 > 0:17:07Jeanne d'Arc, outside Soissons.

0:17:08 > 0:17:09And the child's name?

0:17:09 > 0:17:14Julie Andre, A-N-D-R-E.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16Do you know how old she is?

0:17:16 > 0:17:17Yes, 18.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24Let's have another martini.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26- Ohhh, Alec!- Ohhhhh, Jervis!

0:17:26 > 0:17:30- If you take that attitude, we won't get any place.- Mmm-hmm.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Tell me, has she got a friend?

0:17:32 > 0:17:33This girl has a gift for life.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35I want to send her to America.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37I want to educate her.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39You can't adopt an 18-year-old girl!

0:17:39 > 0:17:40You can't ask me...

0:17:40 > 0:17:43They have a name for what you're asking me to do!

0:17:43 > 0:17:46That is narrow-minded, bigoted and evil!

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Jervis, have you any idea how easy it is to lose a job

0:17:48 > 0:17:50at the State Department these days?

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- But my motives are as pure as... - Just a moment, Jervis.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55..I think the Ambassador fears

0:17:55 > 0:17:58that if the Press hear about this, they might conceivably place

0:17:58 > 0:18:00a different interpretation upon your motives.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02However pure in fact they may be!

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Thank you, Griggs!

0:18:04 > 0:18:07A fair point. Er...

0:18:07 > 0:18:09I have it!

0:18:09 > 0:18:11The entire thing can be done anonymously.

0:18:11 > 0:18:12Like a scholarship fund.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14There'll be absolutely no contact

0:18:14 > 0:18:16between the girl and myself,

0:18:16 > 0:18:17she won't even know who I am.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20The Pendleton Foundation gives lots of scholarships

0:18:20 > 0:18:24to American boys and girls, why not to this girl? Why not?

0:18:24 > 0:18:26I don't know why not.

0:18:26 > 0:18:27Well?

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Of course, you're not really adopting her.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31In this case you're merely just sponsoring her.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33- Right!- But you want to send her to college.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35How do we know she'll qualify?

0:18:35 > 0:18:37Qualify? Erm...

0:18:37 > 0:18:40I'm on the Board of Trustees for some institution of

0:18:40 > 0:18:42learning for young ladies. Which one is it, Griggs?

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Walston College in Massachusetts.

0:18:44 > 0:18:45What makes you think they'll take her?

0:18:45 > 0:18:49What was our contribution last year?

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Sizeable!

0:18:51 > 0:18:54She is now an enrolled member of the freshman class

0:18:54 > 0:18:57of Walston College in Massachusetts. Here, start writing.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00Now, where were we?

0:19:00 > 0:19:0318 years old...Ohhh!

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Julie, everything is true!

0:19:07 > 0:19:09Everything is happening.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11Look, here is a letter from the American Ambassador.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13Your name. Julie Andre.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17You are going to America to college!

0:19:21 > 0:19:24- How do I go?- By aeroplane!

0:19:24 > 0:19:25Everything has been arranged.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28Travelling expenses, college, clothes to wear...

0:19:28 > 0:19:29And the food too?

0:19:29 > 0:19:31All that you desire!

0:19:31 > 0:19:33- Hamburger?- Hamburger!

0:19:33 > 0:19:37- Ice cream?- Three times a day!

0:19:39 > 0:19:41I'll send some back for the children!

0:19:41 > 0:19:44And pictures of Indians and cowboys!

0:19:44 > 0:19:46Where you are going there won't be cowboys.

0:19:46 > 0:19:47Indians, maybe, but no cowboys!

0:19:47 > 0:19:48Oh, la-la.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Madame, is not possible, it is like a dream!

0:19:51 > 0:19:54It is...it is too...

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Who is it that would do that for me?

0:19:56 > 0:19:58What's his name, where is he?

0:19:58 > 0:20:00I cannot tell you his name. He does not wish you to know it.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03But...I want to thank him!

0:20:03 > 0:20:06He doesn't want any thanks. He doesn't want any gratitude.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09His only wish is that you write him once a month,

0:20:09 > 0:20:11just like he would be your father,

0:20:11 > 0:20:13and tell him the progress you are making in school.

0:20:13 > 0:20:17And this is the address...

0:20:17 > 0:20:23Mr John Smith, Post Office Box 3642, New York City.

0:20:23 > 0:20:24It is all written out here.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27Of course, John Smith is not his real name.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Oh, la-la, Madame.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33- It has really happened, huh?- Uh-huh.

0:20:33 > 0:20:34It is really true?

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Everything is true.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39Come on, Julie, you go to sleep

0:20:39 > 0:20:42and say a nice prayer of thanks.

0:20:45 > 0:20:50- Bless you, Madame!- Il n'y a pas de quoi, ma choute!- Bonsoir, Madame.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Oh, how beautiful it is!

0:20:53 > 0:20:55It is American automobile.

0:20:55 > 0:20:56No, no, it is Italian.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58No, it is a Cadillac!

0:20:58 > 0:21:02- I saw one in the cinema. - What are you doing there?

0:21:02 > 0:21:05An American car and a man. He has been talking to...

0:21:05 > 0:21:06Where? Let me see!

0:21:12 > 0:21:13Oh, zut!

0:21:15 > 0:21:17Did you see him? Did you see his face?

0:21:17 > 0:21:19- YES!- You did? What did he look like?

0:21:21 > 0:21:22Was he old?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Yes, very old!

0:21:24 > 0:21:25How old?

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Older than him!

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Did you see his hair? What kind of hair did he have?

0:21:29 > 0:21:32- He had no hair.- Bald?- He had a hat.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34We saw only his shadow.

0:21:34 > 0:21:37He was very tall with long legs...

0:21:37 > 0:21:39..comme un faucheur.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42- Un faucheur?- Yes, a Daddy Longlegs.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Oh, a Daddy Longlegs!

0:21:44 > 0:21:46Yes! A Daddy Longlegs!

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Ssh! Now, off to bed, quickly.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52Quiet, don't wake the others.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50Daddy Longlegs!

0:22:53 > 0:22:55Papa Faucheur!

0:22:58 > 0:23:03# Daddy Longlegs... Longlegs...

0:23:03 > 0:23:07# Daddy Longlegs... Longlegs...

0:23:07 > 0:23:14# Please, please make one little dream come true

0:23:17 > 0:23:24# If Cinderella's Godmama could make a coach-and-four

0:23:24 > 0:23:29# I'm sure a real, live Godpapa

0:23:29 > 0:23:34# Could do a whole lot more

0:23:34 > 0:23:39# Make me pretty... pretty...

0:23:39 > 0:23:43# Make me witty... witty...

0:23:43 > 0:23:49# Make me just as nice as a girl can be

0:23:51 > 0:23:57# I don't know how I'll find a way

0:23:57 > 0:24:04# But I'll pay you back some day

0:24:04 > 0:24:09# Daddy Longlegs

0:24:09 > 0:24:15# Wait and see. #

0:24:24 > 0:24:26Julie! Julie!

0:25:14 > 0:25:19# Daddy Longlegs

0:25:19 > 0:25:25- # Wait and see.- #

0:26:14 > 0:26:16That'll be a dollar and a half.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29Keep the change, please.

0:26:29 > 0:26:30Thank you.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43- Hi!- Hi!

0:26:45 > 0:26:48Through those portals, sister!

0:26:48 > 0:26:51- See ya!- ...See ya!

0:27:00 > 0:27:03- Frosh?- Pardon?

0:27:03 > 0:27:05Are you a freshman?

0:27:05 > 0:27:07Oui...yes, I'm a freshman.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11Well, you must be our French girl, Julie Andre.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14Oh, you know about me, huh?

0:27:14 > 0:27:17Yes, I have a list of everybody.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19I'm Pat Withers, Senior.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22Welcome to Walston College.

0:27:22 > 0:27:23Thank you!

0:27:23 > 0:27:28You're in Room 205, with Linda Pendleton and Sally McBride.

0:27:28 > 0:27:30Upstairs and down to your left.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33Thank you, Miss Senior.

0:27:35 > 0:27:40Egghead! Egghead! Egghead!

0:27:44 > 0:27:49# Welcome, Egghead! Wipe that smile off your face!

0:27:49 > 0:27:52# Never speak until you're spoken to!

0:27:52 > 0:27:56# What an Egghead! You're an Egghead!

0:27:56 > 0:28:00# But you're soon gonna be hard-boiled!

0:28:00 > 0:28:02# Blow your nose! Dry your ears!

0:28:02 > 0:28:04#Get up and salute when a senior appears!

0:28:04 > 0:28:08# Move your feet! Get out the lead! Cover the point in your head!

0:28:08 > 0:28:12# Tummy in! Sweater out! Eliminate that supercilious pout!

0:28:12 > 0:28:16# But since you are a lady, dear, you are welcome here!

0:28:16 > 0:28:19# Welcome Egghead! You're an Egghead!

0:28:19 > 0:28:23# But you're soon gonna be hard-boiled! #

0:28:23 > 0:28:26- Oh, pardon!- Hi! I'm Sally McBride,

0:28:26 > 0:28:28this is Linda Pendleton!

0:28:28 > 0:28:32- Hi!- Hi, Miss Pendleton, I am Julie Andre.

0:28:32 > 0:28:33We've heard about you.

0:28:33 > 0:28:36We've both signed up for French and expect to get A's!

0:28:36 > 0:28:37I'd help you with English,

0:28:37 > 0:28:41but I'm a total loss at it myself! I smell!

0:28:41 > 0:28:44- You do?- At English!- Oh!

0:28:44 > 0:28:48But I have got a brother at Harvard, who's real smooth,

0:28:48 > 0:28:50so if I were you, I'd cultivate me!

0:28:50 > 0:28:52Cultivate Linda, too.

0:28:52 > 0:28:53Her folks are big muck around here!

0:28:53 > 0:28:55Every time they need a new building or something,

0:28:55 > 0:28:57her uncle coughs up for everything!

0:28:57 > 0:29:00Pipe down, Sally. Have we said anything you understand yet?

0:29:00 > 0:29:05The words, yes, but the meaning...

0:29:05 > 0:29:08- I thought so!- Don't worry, you'll get with it.

0:29:08 > 0:29:10One of us has to sleep alone.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12Would that bother you?

0:29:12 > 0:29:14Alone? A room for myself?

0:29:14 > 0:29:18- Oh, no, that would not bother me at all!- Good! Then that's settled.

0:29:18 > 0:29:23- Now. Where's your trunk? - Er...I don't know.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25What do you mean? Didn't you pack?

0:29:25 > 0:29:29Oh, yes...but all I packed was...this!

0:29:29 > 0:29:31She believes in travelling light!

0:29:31 > 0:29:35But surely those aren't all the clothes you have for a whole year?!

0:29:35 > 0:29:37I don't know.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39- KNOCK - Come in!

0:29:41 > 0:29:44- Miss Julie Andre? - Yes, that's me.

0:29:44 > 0:29:47I have a couple of trunks for you.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54Oh, look at the size of it!

0:29:55 > 0:29:59Goodnight! Why, I've never seen anything so big!

0:30:01 > 0:30:05- Miss Andre?- Yes? - Sign here, please.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08And you were the girl who didn't have any trunks!

0:30:08 > 0:30:11Yeah, she believes in travelling light!

0:30:11 > 0:30:13And TWO of them, too!

0:30:13 > 0:30:15Thank you.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19Come on, aren't you gonna open them?!

0:30:19 > 0:30:23- Oh...yes, yes... - Hurry!

0:30:23 > 0:30:26- Er...they are locked. - Of course they are!

0:30:26 > 0:30:31- Where are the keys?- Oh...the keys...

0:30:31 > 0:30:35Well, I am tired of saying, "I do not know" but...

0:30:35 > 0:30:37I do not know!

0:30:37 > 0:30:41Well, my nail file works on my sister's diary!

0:30:41 > 0:30:43- Julie?- Yes?- This just arrived.

0:30:43 > 0:30:45Special delivery and don't get used to this kind of service,

0:30:45 > 0:30:48it's only the first day!

0:30:48 > 0:30:50The keys! I think it's the keys!

0:30:52 > 0:30:55- There they are!- Hurry!- I am!

0:30:55 > 0:31:00I think I'm going to be the best-dressed girl on campus!

0:31:00 > 0:31:03Heavens! LOOK at them!

0:31:05 > 0:31:09- Oh, wow!- Wow!- ...Wow!

0:31:12 > 0:31:15Get a load of these labels!

0:31:15 > 0:31:16It's from my guardian.

0:31:16 > 0:31:17Are you sure he's your guardian?

0:31:17 > 0:31:19Oh, yes, that I do know!

0:31:19 > 0:31:24- There's so many of them! - Oh, let me see!- They're lovely!

0:31:24 > 0:31:29- Oh, this is the one that I want! - Here's a beauty!

0:31:29 > 0:31:30I'll be right back!

0:31:31 > 0:31:34If I lose about 5 pounds...

0:31:34 > 0:31:37- I can step into this one now! - Oh, that's beautiful.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39How did he know my eyes were blue?!

0:31:39 > 0:31:42Julie, I'll swap you a date with my brother

0:31:42 > 0:31:44for a chance to wear this dress!

0:31:44 > 0:31:46- Huh?- Swell, it's a deal!

0:31:46 > 0:31:51Heavens, LOOK at all this! I've never seen so many!

0:31:51 > 0:31:53Sally, Sally. Think he's really her guardian?

0:31:53 > 0:31:58I don't care what his intentions are. His taste is divine!

0:31:58 > 0:32:01- Julie! Julie!- Coming!

0:32:02 > 0:32:05Hey! Behold...

0:32:05 > 0:32:06An American freshman!

0:32:10 > 0:32:13Look!

0:32:21 > 0:32:25"Dear Daddy Longlegs, or perhaps I should say,

0:32:25 > 0:32:29"'Dear kind person who sends orphans to college.'

0:32:33 > 0:32:37"Yesterday morning...

0:32:37 > 0:32:40"..I was in France...

0:32:43 > 0:32:50"..and tonight... I am sleeping in...

0:32:50 > 0:32:55"Massa-ch...

0:33:00 > 0:33:03"..Walston."

0:33:03 > 0:33:07"It is strange to be writing letters to someone you don't know.

0:33:07 > 0:33:10"It's strange for me to write letters at all.

0:33:10 > 0:33:16"Never before had I anyone to write to,

0:33:16 > 0:33:18"but now I belong to somebody

0:33:18 > 0:33:22"and it is a very comfortable sensation.

0:33:22 > 0:33:25"I will try to make you proud of me.

0:33:25 > 0:33:29"Yours very respectfully, Julie. "

0:33:31 > 0:33:34Is Mr Pendleton to see this?

0:33:34 > 0:33:39No, Miss Prichard, just start a new file. Andre, Julie Andre.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41Yes, Mr Griggs.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07"Dear Daddy Longlegs. I doubt that it will interest you,

0:35:07 > 0:35:10"but this semester I have moved up two places.

0:35:10 > 0:35:14"I am now 12th in my class. My average is just above a B..."

0:35:14 > 0:35:16BUZZ

0:35:18 > 0:35:21Griggs speaking...Yes...

0:35:21 > 0:35:24Oh, she is? Er...just a moment.

0:35:24 > 0:35:26PRESSES BUZZER

0:35:26 > 0:35:27Yes, Griggs, old boy?

0:35:27 > 0:35:30Jervis, your sister-in-law Gertrude is on the phone.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32I just left for Alaska!

0:35:32 > 0:35:34She's called 5 times.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36It's about your house in Murray Bay.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38She's decided to spend the summer there with Linda.

0:35:38 > 0:35:40She wants you to have it redecorated.

0:35:40 > 0:35:42French provincial.

0:35:42 > 0:35:44She wants me to have my house redecorated

0:35:44 > 0:35:46so she can use it for her vacation?!

0:35:46 > 0:35:49For Gertrude, that's reasonable!

0:35:49 > 0:35:51- Tell her to... - CLICK

0:35:53 > 0:35:55Tell Mrs Pendleton,

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Jervis is happy for her to use the house.

0:35:57 > 0:36:02He agrees with her that French provincial is most attractive.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04He wonders why he didn't think of it himself!

0:36:07 > 0:36:12Now, where was I ? "My average is just above a B..."

0:36:12 > 0:36:15- What?- The Andre letter.

0:36:15 > 0:36:19Oh...er...file it!

0:36:19 > 0:36:22You didn't finish reading it!

0:36:23 > 0:36:27"It is very hard to go on writing to a...a thing!

0:36:27 > 0:36:30"You never ask any questions.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32"You never show the slightest interest in me or anything I do.

0:36:32 > 0:36:35"You don't praise and you don't scold.

0:36:35 > 0:36:38"It's like having a machine for a father.

0:36:38 > 0:36:41"I love college and I love you for sending me here,

0:36:41 > 0:36:44"but couldn't you write just one letter?!

0:36:44 > 0:36:46"Not too respectfully yours,

0:36:46 > 0:36:50- "Julie." - File it, Miss Prichard.

0:36:50 > 0:36:54Isn't somebody, someday going to answer that poor child?!

0:36:54 > 0:36:56All right, all right.

0:36:58 > 0:37:02"Dear Miss Andre, your letter of the 23rd received.

0:37:02 > 0:37:07"I'm sure Mr Smith will be pleased with your progress."

0:37:07 > 0:37:09That's a breezy, cheerful little note.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11I'm sure that will warm her up!

0:37:11 > 0:37:13What do I know about writing to a young girl?

0:37:13 > 0:37:16All right! Destroy my letter, continue as before! File it!

0:37:16 > 0:37:20Yes, Mr Griggs!

0:37:21 > 0:37:26Mr Griggs, a person is not a corporation!

0:37:26 > 0:37:29A person is flesh and...

0:37:29 > 0:37:31..and blood...

0:37:31 > 0:37:33..and feelings!

0:38:00 > 0:38:02On slide three, I don't like the word "coach".

0:38:02 > 0:38:05Pendleton Airways is selling something better than coach travel.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07We must find a new phrase.

0:38:07 > 0:38:10- Yes, Griggs?- Jervis, a person is not a corporation!

0:38:10 > 0:38:12Really? "Cabin Clipper" just occurred to me.

0:38:12 > 0:38:13How does that strike you?

0:38:13 > 0:38:15A person is flesh and blood and feelings!

0:38:15 > 0:38:16And has to be treated as such!

0:38:16 > 0:38:19I'll vote for that! Where do I register?

0:38:19 > 0:38:21Your treatment of her has been absolutely shameful!

0:38:21 > 0:38:23She's a monster! Sometimes I think my poor brother

0:38:23 > 0:38:25gave up the ghost just to get away from her.

0:38:25 > 0:38:27Not your sister-in-law.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29I am referring to Miss Julie Andre!

0:38:29 > 0:38:32- Miss Julie Andre?- I'm not in the least surprised!

0:38:32 > 0:38:33Yes, sir?

0:38:33 > 0:38:35Miss Prichard bring in that file!

0:38:35 > 0:38:36Which file, Mr Griggs?

0:38:36 > 0:38:38The one you're crying over!

0:38:38 > 0:38:41Crying in the file? Not only does it sound inefficient,

0:38:41 > 0:38:43it sounds like a tune on the hit parade.

0:38:43 > 0:38:44What's going on around here?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47Nothing is going on around here and it's all your fault!

0:38:47 > 0:38:50Over two years ago, you, impulsively, capriciously,

0:38:50 > 0:38:53against the better judgment of the American Ambassador and myself,

0:38:53 > 0:38:56picked a young girl out of a French orphanage

0:38:56 > 0:38:59and deposited her in Walston College.

0:38:59 > 0:39:01Oh, that Julie Andre.

0:39:01 > 0:39:03Yes, THAT Julie Andre!

0:39:03 > 0:39:05She's been kicked out! Griggs,

0:39:05 > 0:39:07how could you let them do that after all we do for that college?!

0:39:07 > 0:39:09She has not been kicked out!

0:39:09 > 0:39:10She stands 12th in her class!

0:39:10 > 0:39:12She's a lovely, sensitive, marvellous girl.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14Any parent would be proud of her!

0:39:14 > 0:39:19And yet, no-one pays the slightest bit of attention to her!

0:39:21 > 0:39:23Thank you, Miss Prichard.

0:39:23 > 0:39:24Thank you, Mr Griggs.

0:39:35 > 0:39:38I was afraid there was going to be a baby in there!

0:39:38 > 0:39:40What kind of performance was that?

0:39:40 > 0:39:43For more than two years that poor girl has been pouring her heart

0:39:43 > 0:39:45out to you in those letters, and you haven't answered one of them.

0:39:45 > 0:39:49You haven't even bothered to read one!

0:39:49 > 0:39:51Wait a minute, that was the arrangement,

0:39:51 > 0:39:54it had to be done anonymously. Remember? Alec insisted on that.

0:39:54 > 0:39:56At least you could've asked about her!

0:39:56 > 0:40:00Shown some compassion, some humanity!

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Oh, I see. I see.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05You're in love with her.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08No, Jervis, it's worse that that. She's in love with you!

0:40:08 > 0:40:10- What?- Although you don't know it,

0:40:10 > 0:40:12you've been a thoughtful and considerate guardian.

0:40:12 > 0:40:15She's spent the last two summers on your farm in Nova Scotia,

0:40:15 > 0:40:17although she thinks Linda is responsible for that.

0:40:18 > 0:40:19Linda?

0:40:19 > 0:40:21Your niece. Gertrude's daughter.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23The one you haven't seen since she was born.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25Oh, yes. Horrible looking baby.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27Well, she's no longer a horrible looking baby.

0:40:27 > 0:40:30- She's Julie's roommate. - Who put them together?

0:40:30 > 0:40:35You did. It was the only way to arrange Miss Andre's vacations.

0:40:35 > 0:40:39- You sent her a Christmas present. - I did? What?

0:40:39 > 0:40:41Three pairs of silk pyjamas.

0:40:41 > 0:40:45- Griggs!- It's OK, Miss Prichard selected them!

0:40:45 > 0:40:47All in all, Miss Andre has a lot to thank you for

0:40:47 > 0:40:49and is very devoted to you.

0:40:49 > 0:40:52She calls you her 'Dear Daddy Longlegs'.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Dear Daddy WHAT-legs?

0:40:54 > 0:40:56Well, it has something to do with

0:40:56 > 0:40:58your shadow on the wall, or a spider...

0:40:59 > 0:41:02Jervis, I think you should read these letters!

0:41:02 > 0:41:03I think I'd better read them, too.

0:41:08 > 0:41:11"Dear Daddy Longlegs..."

0:41:11 > 0:41:14She's a prolific little thing, isn't she?

0:41:18 > 0:41:20Griggs, would you tell Miss Prichard

0:41:20 > 0:41:23to hold all my calls until she hears from me?

0:41:40 > 0:41:42"Dear Daddy Longlegs,

0:41:42 > 0:41:46"you never answered my questions, and they were important.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49"Are you very bald?

0:41:49 > 0:41:51"Or just a little bald?

0:41:51 > 0:41:54"Are you very old...

0:41:54 > 0:41:56"..or just a little old?

0:41:56 > 0:42:01"On second thoughts, don't answer, not that you will!

0:42:01 > 0:42:04"It is just as fun not knowing anything about you.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07"It leaves me free to imagine whatever I want.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10"You could be anything.

0:42:10 > 0:42:15"Sometimes I think that you are a Texas millionaire!

0:42:15 > 0:42:17"And you are so rich,

0:42:17 > 0:42:22"there is a special department in the United States treasury

0:42:22 > 0:42:25"which works only on your tax..."

0:43:16 > 0:43:20# Down in Texas where they treat you right

0:44:08 > 0:44:10"Well, maybe not.

0:44:10 > 0:44:14"You're probably an international playboy..."

0:45:27 > 0:45:31"No, no, no! I don't like you like this.

0:45:31 > 0:45:36"I prefer to think of you as my guardian angel..."

0:49:45 > 0:49:51"Oh, it's very confusing! I wish I knew who you really are.

0:49:51 > 0:49:56"I wish...I wish one day you would write and tell me.

0:49:56 > 0:49:59"Your lonesome Julie."

0:50:12 > 0:50:15Would you get my sister-in-law on the phone, please?

0:50:15 > 0:50:16- Who, sir?- My sister-in-law,

0:50:16 > 0:50:18Gertrude Pendleton.

0:50:25 > 0:50:28BUZZ

0:50:32 > 0:50:34Hello? Hello, Gertrude.

0:50:34 > 0:50:35Tell me, how's Linda?

0:50:35 > 0:50:37Who is this?

0:50:37 > 0:50:39Jervis?

0:50:39 > 0:50:42I don't believe it! You've been drinking!

0:50:42 > 0:50:46Not a drop. I merely phoned up to find out about my niece.

0:50:46 > 0:50:48Tell me. How is she enjoying college?

0:50:48 > 0:50:51Jervis, this is very peculiar!

0:50:51 > 0:50:55Linda is 20 and you have not seen her for 19½ years!

0:50:55 > 0:51:00Oh, you're so right! I've been the worst of uncles. I'm sorry.

0:51:00 > 0:51:03Why don't we go up and see her?

0:51:03 > 0:51:06This is insane. All I wanted was for you to write Julie a letter!

0:51:06 > 0:51:07Keep quiet!

0:51:07 > 0:51:09No, no...not you, Gertrude!

0:51:09 > 0:51:13There's a mechanical device here producing strange noises.

0:51:13 > 0:51:19The Spring Dance? Saturday? ..Sounds charming!

0:51:19 > 0:51:22Fine, fine, we'll drive up together.

0:51:22 > 0:51:25Wonderful...see you then! Goodbye!

0:51:25 > 0:51:28You can't do this! You can't go to the school

0:51:28 > 0:51:31and reveal yourself to Julie! It's violating your promise to Alec!

0:51:31 > 0:51:32Griggs, how you do carry on.

0:51:32 > 0:51:34I have no intention of revealing myself.

0:51:34 > 0:51:36I am simply going up there to visit my niece and

0:51:36 > 0:51:39while I'm there, I'll get a look at my orphan!

0:51:39 > 0:51:40BUZZ

0:51:40 > 0:51:44Mrs Gertrude Pendleton on the line. Put her on.

0:51:44 > 0:51:45Yes, Gertie?

0:51:45 > 0:51:50Yes, of course it was me you were talking to a moment ago!

0:51:50 > 0:51:54Who else? Who else but Linda's Uncle Jervis?

0:52:00 > 0:52:04BLUESY DANCE MUSIC

0:52:38 > 0:52:40Excuse me.

0:52:43 > 0:52:47Jervis, remember you're with me and don't leer!

0:52:48 > 0:52:50I was just looking around!

0:52:50 > 0:52:52I hope you remember, they are very young.

0:52:52 > 0:52:56Time cannot wither, nor custom stale your charm, Gertrude!

0:52:56 > 0:52:59I don't know what plans you have Jervis, but I don't propose to...

0:52:59 > 0:53:00Oh, here's Linda!

0:53:00 > 0:53:04Linda, darling, can you ever forgive your Uncle Jervis?

0:53:04 > 0:53:07- For Heaven's sake, Jervis, that's not Linda!- Oh, I am sorry!

0:53:07 > 0:53:08What in the world are you doing here anyway?

0:53:08 > 0:53:12Linda, I don't suppose you remember your Uncle Jervis,

0:53:12 > 0:53:14but then he doesn't remember you either!

0:53:14 > 0:53:19- Hello, Uncle Jervis.- Linda, I've been foolish not coming to see you.

0:53:19 > 0:53:20You're lovely!

0:53:20 > 0:53:26- Thank you. Mmm...I guess I haven't made a mistake.- What?

0:53:26 > 0:53:30The girls insisted that I fill out a dance card for you.

0:53:30 > 0:53:31Sounds charming.

0:53:31 > 0:53:35Stand under your initial and you'll be claimed like lost luggage!

0:53:35 > 0:53:36Well-travelled luggage!

0:53:36 > 0:53:40Linda, dear, do I have a pleasure of a dance with your mother?

0:53:40 > 0:53:42No, I didn't...

0:53:42 > 0:53:45What a shame! Well, here I go!

0:53:46 > 0:53:48Come off it, McBride!

0:53:48 > 0:53:52No, I gave up one dance to someone's uncle, but that's it!

0:53:52 > 0:53:56- Sorry, Professor! - That's all right, but I'm not...

0:53:56 > 0:53:58..Professor.

0:54:02 > 0:54:03- Mr McBride?- Yes, Miss Andre?

0:54:03 > 0:54:07- I believe this is our dance! - Pardon us, Professor.

0:54:07 > 0:54:09I told you, I was not a...

0:54:09 > 0:54:13- You must be Uncle Jervis.- Yes.- I'm Sally McBride, Linda's roommate.

0:54:13 > 0:54:14But I thought...

0:54:14 > 0:54:18Oh, the vision that just left with my brother?

0:54:18 > 0:54:20That's Julie Andre, the 3rd cellmate.

0:54:20 > 0:54:25- Oh, I see.- Well, shall we have a go at it?

0:54:25 > 0:54:28- If...- If this is too bluesy, we could sit it out.

0:54:28 > 0:54:31- I'll do my best.- All right.

0:54:33 > 0:54:35- I...I can do the box step. - Oh.

0:54:35 > 0:54:38One...two...one...two...

0:54:42 > 0:54:44Well... You're quite good!

0:54:44 > 0:54:47Thank you. I'm glad those lessons weren't wasted!

0:54:47 > 0:54:49Last week I did Spanish rhythms.

0:55:07 > 0:55:10Mr McBride seems taken with Miss Andre.

0:55:10 > 0:55:13Taken? He's Georgia and she's Sherman marching through!

0:55:13 > 0:55:15Is she the same way about him?

0:55:15 > 0:55:17She'd be a darned fool if she weren't!

0:55:28 > 0:55:30Am I leading?

0:55:30 > 0:55:32Up to now I think it's a tie!

0:55:32 > 0:55:33That's a fault of mine.

0:55:33 > 0:55:36It comes of going to a girls' school!

0:55:41 > 0:55:43- That's that!- Thanks a lot.

0:55:43 > 0:55:47Don't forget, tomorrow we play Vassar. Do come!

0:55:47 > 0:55:49- I'm sure you can beat Yale.- Thanks!

0:56:04 > 0:56:06Mr Pendleton? I am Julie Andre.

0:56:06 > 0:56:09- How do you do? Is this our dance? - Yes.

0:56:09 > 0:56:12If you'd rather not dance, we can talk.

0:56:12 > 0:56:13I'd like that.

0:56:13 > 0:56:16Isn't there some place we could go, in the garden perhaps?

0:56:16 > 0:56:19Or maybe would that be bad for your reputation?

0:56:19 > 0:56:21Er...it would.

0:56:21 > 0:56:24Come on, let's destroy my reputation!

0:56:29 > 0:56:32Spring is in the air, isn't it?

0:56:32 > 0:56:33Yes, isn't it?

0:56:42 > 0:56:45Where do you suggest we have our flirtation?

0:56:45 > 0:56:47Well, one usually goes that way.

0:56:51 > 0:56:54Haven't we met somewhere before?

0:56:54 > 0:56:55No!

0:56:55 > 0:56:58It sounds like what the boys say, but haven't we?

0:56:58 > 0:57:01No, I'm sure I would've remembered.

0:57:01 > 0:57:04I have the funniest feeling.

0:57:04 > 0:57:07Of course! I know. Come on.

0:57:07 > 0:57:09- Where?- You'll see.

0:57:09 > 0:57:13Oh, I'm sorry! I beg your pardon. I was just...

0:57:13 > 0:57:18- Miss Andre, where are you taking me?- You'll see!

0:57:18 > 0:57:20There you are!

0:57:20 > 0:57:22Grandfather!

0:57:22 > 0:57:27What a wonderful way to end his days - in the middle of a girls' school!

0:57:27 > 0:57:29Ah, did he have a weakness for ladies?

0:57:29 > 0:57:32No, a great strength!

0:57:32 > 0:57:35Did you inherit that tendency?

0:57:35 > 0:57:37THAT is a very direct question.

0:57:37 > 0:57:43I suppose it is, but, I've never talked to an uncle before.

0:57:43 > 0:57:45How do I talk to an uncle?

0:57:45 > 0:57:49Very respectfully. And you don't ask questions, you answer them!

0:57:49 > 0:57:51Now, sit down and do just that!

0:57:52 > 0:57:55- Yes, sir!- Not quite that respectful.

0:57:55 > 0:57:59- Yes, Uncle Jervis.- That's better.

0:57:59 > 0:58:01You have no uncles of your own?

0:58:01 > 0:58:06No uncles, no aunts, no brothers, no sisters, no anything!

0:58:06 > 0:58:08Isn't there anyone...?

0:58:08 > 0:58:10It's a sad story.

0:58:10 > 0:58:12My parents were a Duke and Duchess,

0:58:12 > 0:58:15and they both died before I was born!

0:58:15 > 0:58:17- Both?- Yes.

0:58:17 > 0:58:21Our yacht overturned in a typhoon in the Sargasso Sea.

0:58:21 > 0:58:24I was the only survivor.

0:58:27 > 0:58:29If you don't believe my story,

0:58:29 > 0:58:34I have several others which are much more interesting!

0:58:34 > 0:58:36I'm sure you have.

0:58:40 > 0:58:45I only tell the stories because nobody believes the truth.

0:58:45 > 0:58:47Would you like to dance now?

0:58:47 > 0:58:51Er...yes, I...I would.

0:58:51 > 0:58:55DREAMY ROMANTIC MUSIC

0:58:59 > 0:59:03Er...would you tell me what the truth is?

0:59:03 > 0:59:06- Yes. I have a guardian.- I see.

0:59:06 > 0:59:12- What sort of man is he? - Oh, he's tall and very skinny.

0:59:12 > 0:59:15He walks with a cane and he's bald up here.

0:59:15 > 0:59:19- But he has a fringe of hair all around.- All around?

0:59:19 > 0:59:22Sounds perfectly stunning!

0:59:22 > 0:59:25Don't make fun of him! I love him.

0:59:25 > 0:59:28- When I finish college, I will live with him!- You will?!

0:59:28 > 0:59:31Yes, but it's a surprise and he doesn't know it yet!

0:59:31 > 0:59:34I have it all planned.

0:59:34 > 0:59:39I'll read to him, plump his pillows and warm up his slippers

0:59:39 > 0:59:43and make him wear galoshes when he goes out!

0:59:43 > 0:59:47From your description, he won't go out often!

0:59:47 > 0:59:52- Well, he's not a boy any more. - That's probably true!

0:59:52 > 0:59:55Does he ever come to see you?

0:59:57 > 1:00:03- No.- Why not?- Well, he doesn't care anything about me really.

1:00:03 > 1:00:06Oh, now, I'm sure he does!

1:00:06 > 1:00:07Oh, I just pretend.

1:00:07 > 1:00:10One must have somebody to love, you know.

1:00:10 > 1:00:12So I pretend that he really cares.

1:00:12 > 1:00:14Maybe he cares more than you think.

1:00:14 > 1:00:16Oh, he DOES, huh?!

1:00:16 > 1:00:20I write all the time. He doesn't even READ my letters!

1:00:20 > 1:00:22How do you know?

1:00:22 > 1:00:24- He throws them away! - He does no such thing!

1:00:24 > 1:00:27I mean, I don't think he does.

1:00:27 > 1:00:29Then why doesn't he answer?

1:00:29 > 1:00:33...Dropsy! Probably can't hold a pencil!

1:00:33 > 1:00:36Oh, la-la!

1:00:37 > 1:00:39Hey, you!

1:00:40 > 1:00:43Oh, it's you, Professor. I was going to punch somebody on the nose!

1:00:43 > 1:00:45- We missed a dance.- Sorry, Jimmy.

1:00:45 > 1:00:50Jimmy, this is Mr Pendleton. Mr Pendleton Jimmy McBride.

1:00:50 > 1:00:51- How do you do?- How do you do, sir?

1:00:51 > 1:00:53- Natural mistake, of course. - Of course.

1:00:53 > 1:00:55C'mon Julie, they're doing Sluefoot!

1:00:55 > 1:00:57Good! Excuse us.

1:00:57 > 1:01:01Thanks for keeping Red Riding Hood away from the wolves!

1:01:39 > 1:01:44# I'm going teach you what they're calling the Sluefoot!

1:01:45 > 1:01:49# You make your right foot point to the north

1:01:49 > 1:01:52# Make your left foot point to the south

1:01:52 > 1:01:57# Then you stroll westerly, slow and siestally Sluefoot!

1:01:58 > 1:02:04# Don't be an oddball and don't be a fig

1:02:04 > 1:02:06# Try - why be shy?

1:02:06 > 1:02:10# After all, it's even better if your feet's too big!

1:02:10 > 1:02:13# You put the old posterior out

1:02:13 > 1:02:16# Then manipulates it about!

1:02:16 > 1:02:21# It's the most lack-a-daisiest, I mean the craziest - Sluefoot!

1:02:22 > 1:02:25# You gotta rock like a rocking-chair

1:02:25 > 1:02:29# The step is clock-like, but slightly square

1:02:29 > 1:02:31# You count to one, two, three, four...

1:02:31 > 1:02:34# And then you holler SLUEFOOT !

1:02:34 > 1:02:38# You put your toe out and drag it back

1:05:47 > 1:05:50STORM RAGES OUTSIDE

1:05:51 > 1:05:53- Good morning, sir.- 'Morning.

1:06:10 > 1:06:13RECORD PLAYS: # ..As they seem,

1:06:13 > 1:06:21# So, dream, dream, dream...

1:06:35 > 1:06:37Hello, Jervis!

1:06:37 > 1:06:39Hello, Griggs.

1:06:39 > 1:06:42Wonderful day, isn't it?

1:06:42 > 1:06:47- Yes, the market opened strong. - Get the mail?- Did I ever FAIL to?

1:06:50 > 1:06:52No.

1:07:00 > 1:07:05My dear fellow, what are you in such a foul mood about?

1:07:05 > 1:07:10- The first days of Spring always affect me this way!- Oh.

1:07:10 > 1:07:15- Griggs, please send this record to Miss Andre.- Who's sending it?

1:07:15 > 1:07:16I am, of course!

1:07:16 > 1:07:21I know, but in which incarnation? Jekyll or Hyde?

1:07:21 > 1:07:23Uncle Jervis or Daddy Longlegs?

1:07:23 > 1:07:28Jervis Pendleton. Leave off the uncle, if you don't mind.

1:07:28 > 1:07:33- What you're looking for is in the PERSONAL file.- Thanks.

1:07:37 > 1:07:39"Dear Daddy Longlegs...

1:07:40 > 1:07:45"I met Linda's Uncle Jervis. He seemed very nice..."

1:07:45 > 1:07:48He SEEMED very nice...

1:07:48 > 1:07:50He seemed VERY NICE...

1:07:53 > 1:07:57"But an awful thing has happened to Jimmy McBride.

1:07:57 > 1:08:01"He was all set to go to South Africa as a mining engineer

1:08:01 > 1:08:02"when the project blew up.

1:08:04 > 1:08:06"Imagine, only a month before graduation

1:08:06 > 1:08:08"and he considers himself a failure.

1:08:08 > 1:08:14"I advised him to stay and work in his father's overalls factory.

1:08:14 > 1:08:16"But he hates it.

1:08:16 > 1:08:20"I feel so miserable for him!"

1:08:20 > 1:08:26- Griggs, will you come here, please? - I'll be right there.

1:08:26 > 1:08:32"He was set to go to Africa when the project blew up..."

1:08:33 > 1:08:37I'd like to do something for a young chap I know, McBride.

1:08:37 > 1:08:39Brilliant young mining engineer.

1:08:39 > 1:08:40Do we have an opening for him?

1:08:40 > 1:08:44Our New Jersey lab can always use a bright young man.

1:08:44 > 1:08:46No, not New Jersey.

1:08:46 > 1:08:48He's the adventurous type.

1:08:48 > 1:08:51He'd want to go far away.

1:08:51 > 1:08:53Some place out of the country, eh?

1:08:53 > 1:08:58- He'll sign a year's contract. He's highly recommended.- By whom?

1:08:58 > 1:09:04By me. I met him at that college dance. He's a friend of Linda's.

1:09:04 > 1:09:05I was impressed.

1:09:05 > 1:09:10I have an eye for young people who are going places.

1:09:10 > 1:09:14Going places! How about our tin mines in Bolivia?

1:09:14 > 1:09:17- Bolivia?- Far enough away for you?

1:09:17 > 1:09:19It's not for me, it's for him.

1:09:19 > 1:09:22Of course! What WAS I thinking?

1:09:22 > 1:09:24Our mines in Bolivia sound ideal.

1:09:24 > 1:09:29They are! Take two days to reach after you get off a burro's back!

1:09:29 > 1:09:32Fine. Send Miss Prichard in.

1:09:32 > 1:09:34Miss Prichard?

1:09:34 > 1:09:36I want to dictate a letter.

1:09:36 > 1:09:38I thought perhaps you want to teach her the Sluefoot?

1:10:19 > 1:10:21Hi, Jervis!

1:10:22 > 1:10:25- Hello, Larry. How are you?- Fine.- Good, good.

1:10:25 > 1:10:30- Meeting someone?- My niece and her roommate from college.

1:10:30 > 1:10:33I wish I knew she was on the plane.

1:10:33 > 1:10:37- Jervis!- Julie! How was the flight? - Oh, just wonderful!

1:10:37 > 1:10:41- Jervis... - Sorry. Mr Hamilton Miss Andre.

1:10:41 > 1:10:45- How do you do?- Where's Linda? - She couldn't come.

1:10:45 > 1:10:50Well, Jervis, I'll buzz along. Three's a...you know what.

1:10:50 > 1:10:52- Pleased to meet you.- Goodbye.

1:10:52 > 1:10:56- What happened to Linda?- She woke up with the sniffles.

1:10:56 > 1:11:00She said her colds always get worse, so I...

1:11:00 > 1:11:03Shouldn't I have come alone?

1:11:03 > 1:11:07Oh, yes...I'd have been upset if you hadn't.

1:11:07 > 1:11:12- Are these your baggage checks? - Yes.- John, handle these.

1:11:39 > 1:11:41This way, please, Mr Pendleton.

1:12:07 > 1:12:11Oh, Jervis, you know it's... it's beautiful!

1:12:11 > 1:12:15Count 4 towers over and 9 towers right.

1:12:15 > 1:12:18There's a restaurant where we'll have dinner.

1:12:18 > 1:12:23Why don't we have it here, so we can see the city?

1:12:23 > 1:12:28Don't they teach you anything? You know what they'll be thinking?

1:12:29 > 1:12:34- It's ridiculous! What time would you like to dine?- Any time.

1:12:34 > 1:12:39- I'll be back at 7. Black tie? - But of course!

1:13:03 > 1:13:06You know, Jervis, I've worked out your whole past.

1:13:06 > 1:13:08That doesn't surprise me in the least!

1:13:08 > 1:13:11There was someone years ago.

1:13:11 > 1:13:15She was tall, slender, blonde, very beautiful...

1:13:15 > 1:13:18..and you loved her madly.

1:13:18 > 1:13:23- But she married someone else. She was foolish.- Thank you.

1:13:23 > 1:13:27And you never loved anyone else. Is that right?

1:13:28 > 1:13:32No, there never was a tall, slender blonde

1:13:32 > 1:13:34..but there was a short redhead.

1:13:34 > 1:13:36Then there was a large brunette.

1:13:36 > 1:13:40And then there was someone I met in Switzerland, and...

1:13:40 > 1:13:42Oh, la, la! And you loved them all?

1:13:42 > 1:13:44Madly.

1:13:44 > 1:13:46They why did you never marry?

1:13:46 > 1:13:49I didn't love them THAT madly!

1:13:49 > 1:13:52I don't think you ever will.

1:13:53 > 1:13:56Marry?

1:13:59 > 1:14:01That all depends.

1:14:02 > 1:14:05You know, there's an old theory.

1:14:05 > 1:14:06I mean...

1:14:08 > 1:14:15# When an irresistible force, such as you

1:14:16 > 1:14:24# Meets an old immoveable object, like me

1:14:24 > 1:14:31# You can bet, as sure as you live

1:14:32 > 1:14:34# Something's gotta give,

1:14:34 > 1:14:38# Something's gotta give, something's gotta give

1:14:40 > 1:14:48# When an irrepressible smile, such as yours

1:14:48 > 1:14:56# Warms an old implacable heart, such as mine

1:14:56 > 1:15:02# Don't say no, because I insist

1:15:04 > 1:15:10# Somewhere, somehow, someone's gonna be kissed

1:15:10 > 1:15:16# So en garde who knows what the fates have in store

1:15:19 > 1:15:26# From their vast, mysterious sky?

1:15:26 > 1:15:33# I'll try hard, ignoring those lips I adore

1:15:34 > 1:15:41# But how long can anyone try?

1:15:42 > 1:15:48# Fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might

1:15:50 > 1:15:56# Chances are, some heavenly star-spangled night

1:15:58 > 1:16:04# We'll find out, as sure as we live

1:16:05 > 1:16:07# Something's gotta give,

1:16:07 > 1:16:10# Something's gotta give, something's gotta give. #

1:19:31 > 1:19:38# When an irresistible force, such as you...

1:19:40 > 1:19:47# Meets an old immoveable object, like you... #

1:20:12 > 1:20:14Your morning paper.

1:20:14 > 1:20:19Oh... Uh...did anything happen yesterday?

1:20:24 > 1:20:27- A man got robbed.- What a shame.

1:20:28 > 1:20:30A girl got married.

1:20:31 > 1:20:35That's nice. Whom did she marry?

1:20:35 > 1:20:37- A man.- Oh...

1:20:37 > 1:20:40They've been in love for a long time.

1:20:40 > 1:20:43Oh.

1:20:44 > 1:20:46Anything else happen?

1:20:49 > 1:20:52Yes, but it's not in the paper.

1:20:55 > 1:20:56Goodnight, Julie.

1:20:56 > 1:20:58Goodnight, Jervis.

1:21:49 > 1:21:51Excuse me, Mr Ambassador.

1:21:58 > 1:22:01Right this way, Mr Ambassador.

1:22:05 > 1:22:08I think you'll like this. This wing is very quiet.

1:22:14 > 1:22:18MUMBLES Did you say something, Griggs?

1:22:18 > 1:22:21I was merely asking the price.

1:22:21 > 1:22:25Mmm. Have you something simpler? Larger, but simpler?

1:22:25 > 1:22:28Yes, I think we have the very thing.

1:22:34 > 1:22:36I think that's kind of cute, don't you?

1:22:39 > 1:22:41Very cute!

1:22:41 > 1:22:43Oh, VERY cute!

1:22:43 > 1:22:49I'm glad we all agree. Excuse me, I have a breakfast appointment. Bye!

1:22:49 > 1:22:54- You understand that this is subject to the lady's approval?- Of course.

1:22:54 > 1:22:56But in our experience, Mr Griggs,

1:22:56 > 1:23:01a diamond of that quality never comes back!

1:23:01 > 1:23:02Never!

1:23:36 > 1:23:38- Coffee, Jervis?- Yes, please.

1:23:44 > 1:23:48Last night was the best night in my life!

1:23:48 > 1:23:51I'll drink to that!

1:23:54 > 1:23:59And let's drink to today. Look how beautiful it is!

1:23:59 > 1:24:02I ordered it especially for you!

1:24:02 > 1:24:07I suppose if you're a Pendleton you can make anything happen?

1:24:07 > 1:24:11No, some things are in the lap of the gods.

1:24:13 > 1:24:17You know, when I arrived from college

1:24:17 > 1:24:20and you looked so stern because I'd come alone?

1:24:20 > 1:24:23Well, I have a confession to make.

1:24:23 > 1:24:27I was really terribly afraid and unsure.

1:24:27 > 1:24:30But it has been wonderful!

1:24:30 > 1:24:32Last time I was at that airport

1:24:32 > 1:24:37was when I arrived from France only 3 years ago!

1:24:37 > 1:24:41Oh, it seems like forever!

1:24:41 > 1:24:44Let's drink to France, for having sent you here!

1:24:44 > 1:24:46To America, for letting me come!

1:24:52 > 1:24:56LA MARSEILLAISE PLAYS

1:25:19 > 1:25:21Connect me with 3203, please.

1:25:22 > 1:25:26RING

1:25:26 > 1:25:29- Hello?- May I speak to Mr Pendleton?

1:25:29 > 1:25:34Oh, just a minute... Jervis, it's for you.

1:25:38 > 1:25:43- Hello?- Jervis, you are the most contemptible, deceitful character

1:25:43 > 1:25:46it's ever been my misfortune to know!

1:25:46 > 1:25:49Who is this? ...WHO ?

1:25:49 > 1:25:54Oh, er...yeah, I think so, Alec. Well, all right, I will...

1:25:54 > 1:25:55Right away.

1:26:03 > 1:26:08- Julie, I'll be back in a minute. - Where are you going?

1:26:08 > 1:26:10Some friend of mine wants to see me.

1:26:10 > 1:26:12You finish breakfast, dear. I won't be long.

1:26:28 > 1:26:30Hi.

1:26:33 > 1:26:39- Well, I'm waiting, say something. - All right. Why aren't you in France?

1:26:39 > 1:26:43- I'm to see the Secretary of State. - Then why aren't you in Washington?

1:26:43 > 1:26:47I'll be there tonight. Now, answer MY questions!

1:26:47 > 1:26:50What are you doing in that next suite?

1:26:50 > 1:26:51Why you evil...

1:26:51 > 1:26:53The last time you called me that was

1:26:53 > 1:26:57when you wanted to bring that girl over here to "educate" her...

1:26:57 > 1:27:00- Alec...- Never mind what the papers would say,

1:27:00 > 1:27:02or how you got Government help,

1:27:02 > 1:27:04or the part I played in it...

1:27:04 > 1:27:07The girl's here on a student's visa,

1:27:07 > 1:27:10her behaviour is under scrutiny.

1:27:10 > 1:27:14- She can be expelled...- Wait, Alec! It is NOTHING like THAT!

1:27:14 > 1:27:17I was on the terrace. I'd have to be

1:27:17 > 1:27:21deaf not to hear your conversation over breakfast!

1:27:21 > 1:27:26- Like what?- "Jervis, last night was the best night of my life!"

1:27:26 > 1:27:28Even the most generous interpretation

1:27:28 > 1:27:30of that is horrifying.

1:27:30 > 1:27:32And serving cocktails at this hour!

1:27:32 > 1:27:36- Are you nuts? - I heard the glasses clink.

1:27:36 > 1:27:38It was orange juice.

1:27:38 > 1:27:42Nobody toasts with juice! I haven't been away THAT long!

1:27:42 > 1:27:45You're wrong. I'm in love with the girl.

1:27:45 > 1:27:49- And she with you?- I was about to ask that when YOU rang!

1:27:49 > 1:27:53- What could she say but "Yes"? - She could say "No"!

1:27:53 > 1:27:55Don't be stupid!

1:27:55 > 1:27:59You're older than her, you're rich, both attractions,

1:27:59 > 1:28:04you've changed her life, for which she's grateful!

1:28:04 > 1:28:07She doesn't know anything about that!

1:28:07 > 1:28:10She doesn't know I'm Daddy...

1:28:10 > 1:28:12Daddy what? Daddy SUGAR?

1:28:12 > 1:28:17Shut up! She only knows me as the uncle of her roommate!

1:28:17 > 1:28:19UNCLE of her roommate...

1:28:19 > 1:28:22Doesn't THAT give you pause?

1:28:22 > 1:28:27No. I'm not the only man she knows! There's also a Harvard graduate!

1:28:27 > 1:28:30Can he afford to bring her to New York and entertain her like this?

1:28:30 > 1:28:33- No...- He's probably out looking for a job!

1:28:33 > 1:28:37He is not! He's working in Bolivia, in a tin mine!

1:28:37 > 1:28:41It wouldn't happen to be the Pendleton tin mine?

1:28:41 > 1:28:44Well...er...he needed a job...

1:28:44 > 1:28:48What's the matter with helping young people ?!

1:28:48 > 1:28:52It's a hobby you seem to have embraced vigorously.

1:28:52 > 1:28:58His project in Africa blew up and I had an opening in Bolivia.

1:29:00 > 1:29:03King David.

1:29:03 > 1:29:09- What?!- David sent Uriah to battle because he coveted Bathsheba.

1:29:09 > 1:29:12Oh, no! Oh, NO!

1:29:12 > 1:29:16I've had enough! Listen, Alec, there's nothing deceitful in this!

1:29:16 > 1:29:19It's true I sent that young man...

1:29:19 > 1:29:22He was going away anyway...

1:29:22 > 1:29:24He needed a job and I sent him.

1:29:24 > 1:29:29Sure, the girl is much younger than me and I'm rich.

1:29:29 > 1:29:33Certainly, I tried to sweep her off her feet,

1:29:33 > 1:29:35but doesn't every man in love...

1:29:41 > 1:29:46Oh, you're absolutely right. It's insane.

1:29:46 > 1:29:50- What was I thinking of? - I don't know.

1:29:50 > 1:29:53- Have you got a cigarette here? - Mmm.

1:29:57 > 1:30:01- She must be very attractive, Jervis. - Very.

1:30:01 > 1:30:07I'll...er...I'll bring that boy back from Bolivia.

1:30:12 > 1:30:18- Alec, have you any idea how many hotels there are in New York?- No.

1:30:18 > 1:30:21There are hundreds...THOUSANDS !

1:30:21 > 1:30:24But, Jervis, I always stop here!

1:31:07 > 1:31:103203, please.

1:31:11 > 1:31:15RING

1:31:16 > 1:31:19Jervis, what are you doing?

1:31:19 > 1:31:21I'm downstairs in the lobby.

1:31:21 > 1:31:26Er...listen, something important has just come up.

1:31:26 > 1:31:29I won't be able to get back there to see you.

1:31:29 > 1:31:34I'm all right, it's just State Department business.

1:31:35 > 1:31:38It's a bit hard to explain.

1:31:38 > 1:31:42There are things I'm not at liberty to discuss.

1:31:42 > 1:31:44Do you understand that?

1:31:44 > 1:31:47Of course. When shall I see you?

1:31:47 > 1:31:52Well...er...they may want me to go abroad.

1:31:52 > 1:31:56In which case, I won't see you for quite some time.

1:32:00 > 1:32:03Oh.

1:32:03 > 1:32:05Oh.

1:32:06 > 1:32:09- I...I see.- I see.

1:32:09 > 1:32:11Well...

1:32:13 > 1:32:18No, I'm not upset... just disappointed.

1:32:18 > 1:32:24I want you to see New York. I'll send you anything you want.

1:32:24 > 1:32:27Thank you very much.

1:32:30 > 1:32:33Did you say something?

1:32:34 > 1:32:39Well... Bon voyage.

1:32:41 > 1:32:45Thank you... Take care of yourself, Julie.

1:32:45 > 1:32:47Goodbye.

1:33:23 > 1:33:27Hey, Linda... Catch! Are you sure this is mine ?!

1:33:27 > 1:33:33How did we ever accumulate so much junk in just 4 years ?!

1:33:33 > 1:33:38- Linda, is this yours?- No. - Whose is it? Anyone own this?

1:33:38 > 1:33:43- Hi.- Hi.- Last time anyone belong to this?- Oh, Sally, it's mine.

1:33:43 > 1:33:48- I never saw you wear it. - I know, but it's mine.

1:33:48 > 1:33:50Julie, aren't you going to pack?

1:33:50 > 1:33:56Oh, we have time. There's a whole week until graduation.

1:33:56 > 1:34:01Don't you want your things to get there before you do?

1:34:01 > 1:34:02I guess so.

1:34:05 > 1:34:11You know something, I don't think she knows where to send her trunks.

1:34:11 > 1:34:13It's not that. It's Uncle Jervis!

1:34:13 > 1:34:17They were having a wonderful time,

1:34:17 > 1:34:21then he calls her up and says he has to go away.

1:34:21 > 1:34:25- Last I heard, he was in Madrid. - Not Calcutta?

1:34:25 > 1:34:30- THAT was three cities ago! Last week he was in Hong Kong.- The beast!

1:34:30 > 1:34:33Still, look how nice he's been

1:34:33 > 1:34:37to Jimmy brought him back, raised his salary.

1:34:37 > 1:34:43And Jimmy's hardly been a success. He almost blew up the lab last week!

1:34:43 > 1:34:49- I know. My Uncle Jervis is very strange.- Very!

1:49:44 > 1:49:47You may be about to lose YOUR security!

1:49:47 > 1:49:52I CAN'T, because I qualified for my pension last month.

1:49:52 > 1:49:57If you won't co-operate with me, I'll send the cable myself!

1:49:59 > 1:50:01Well, if you've qualified for your pension, how about a drink?

1:51:42 > 1:51:48- Congratulations, my dear! - Oh, thank you.

1:51:48 > 1:51:53I had a lovely cry. This is my first graduation since my own!

1:51:53 > 1:51:56I don't want to be impolite, but should I know you?

1:51:56 > 1:51:59I don't see why? I'm Alicia Prichard.

1:51:59 > 1:52:01I've come to take you to John Smith.

1:52:01 > 1:52:04- Oh, John Smith?- Daddy Longlegs!

1:52:05 > 1:52:11- Oh! He wants to see me? - Let's say, he's GOING to see you!

1:52:14 > 1:52:18- Who is he?- He should tell you that himself.

1:52:18 > 1:52:21Now, hurry and change. We're going to New York!

1:52:21 > 1:52:25- We go to New York today?- Today!

1:52:25 > 1:52:28- She's bringing her TODAY?!- Shortly.

1:52:28 > 1:52:30That cablegram was right.

1:52:30 > 1:52:32You are sick sick in the head!

1:52:32 > 1:52:37Don't you know about that girl and Jimmy McBride?

1:52:37 > 1:52:40They'll get married, have kids.

1:52:40 > 1:52:43If Julie learns I did everything

1:52:43 > 1:52:46she'd fling herself at me out of gratitude.

1:52:46 > 1:52:50THAT'S the reason I went away!

1:52:50 > 1:52:52Jervis, if I were you, I'd pull yourself together.

1:52:52 > 1:52:55Miss Andre will come through that door soon.

1:52:55 > 1:52:58Know who she'll find here? You.

1:52:58 > 1:53:03- ME?!- Yes. You started all this. YOU are Daddy Longlegs.

1:53:03 > 1:53:09You fit her description of me better than I do, fuddy duddy!

1:53:09 > 1:53:11It's ridiculous! What will I say?

1:53:11 > 1:53:15You can propose marriage for all I care!

1:53:15 > 1:53:18Keep this robe round you. Look down.

1:53:18 > 1:53:22You haven't the strength to keep your chin up. You've been ill!

1:53:22 > 1:53:24That's good!

1:53:25 > 1:53:28Ah, Whistler's Father!

1:53:28 > 1:53:31You may accept my resignation! Effective as of this moment!

1:53:31 > 1:53:36- It's too late now!- Mr Pendleton? - Fine! Have her come right up!

1:53:36 > 1:53:38Jervis, don't be a fool!

1:53:38 > 1:53:42I'm an expert fool, but I'm not being one now!

1:53:49 > 1:53:52Come in, my dear.

1:53:52 > 1:53:55Sit down, my dear.

1:53:55 > 1:53:59The time has come to tell you. I am John Smith!

1:53:59 > 1:54:02I am not Pocahontas!

1:54:02 > 1:54:06I'm Linda Pendleton and I want to see my uncle!

1:54:06 > 1:54:09Hello, my dear!

1:54:09 > 1:54:12- How did you know I was back? - I've a nice spy who works for you.

1:54:12 > 1:54:15Seems I'm SURROUNDED by spies!

1:54:15 > 1:54:19- Uncle Jervis, I must talk to you! - Go right ahead.

1:54:19 > 1:54:23- I have no secrets from Griggs. - Well, I have!

1:54:23 > 1:54:28Thank you! I am so glad to be out of something!

1:54:28 > 1:54:29Don't go far!

1:54:29 > 1:54:34Sit down, honey. What's on your mind?

1:54:34 > 1:54:39Uncle Jervis, I'm in love and I want to get married!

1:54:39 > 1:54:42That's no problem. It's very natural.

1:54:42 > 1:54:45Mother doesn't approve of him.

1:54:45 > 1:54:49That means you've probably made an excellent choice!

1:54:49 > 1:54:51- Is eloping too old-fashioned?- No...

1:54:51 > 1:54:56..but I'd like a big wedding. I only plan on marrying once!

1:54:56 > 1:54:58That IS old-fashioned!

1:54:58 > 1:55:02If YOU told mother how well he was doing at the lab,

1:55:02 > 1:55:06she might forget that his father makes overalls!

1:55:06 > 1:55:12She thinks the whole family will get married in overalls!

1:55:12 > 1:55:17Linda, you couldn't by any chance be speaking of one Jimmy McBride?

1:55:17 > 1:55:18The one and only!

1:55:18 > 1:55:24Jimmy McBride and YOU?! How perfectly WONDERFUL!

1:55:24 > 1:55:26It's sensational! But, how?

1:55:26 > 1:55:32I got him on the rebound, but I GOT him and that's what counts!

1:55:32 > 1:55:35Congratulations! You mother will give you the best wedding

1:55:35 > 1:55:36this town has ever known!

1:55:36 > 1:55:42- You think so?- I KNOW so! I am going to pay for it!- Thank you!

1:55:42 > 1:55:47Make a long, long list of the presents you want! Don't stint!

1:55:47 > 1:55:52- Uncle Jervis, I LOVE you!- And I you. Now, I'm sorry, I'm expecting...

1:55:52 > 1:55:57- Oh...Listen, honey...how is Julie? - Julie Andre?- Mmm.

1:55:57 > 1:56:02She's having a dreadful time. She's so unhappy.

1:56:02 > 1:56:07- Is she?- I thought you'd be glad to hear that. Goodbye, Uncle Jervis.

1:56:07 > 1:56:10- Goodbye.- Thank you!- Thank you.

1:56:15 > 1:56:18- Griggs?- Yes!

1:56:18 > 1:56:21- Have I been rude to you?- Most!

1:56:21 > 1:56:24Forgive me. You're utterly charming.

1:56:24 > 1:56:29You're a little fat boy with wings and a bow and I'm very fond of you!

1:56:35 > 1:56:38Here we are. This is where he lives.

1:56:38 > 1:56:43- Who shall I ask for?- Don't worry. You're expected.

1:56:43 > 1:56:45Thank you, Miss Pritchard.

1:56:45 > 1:56:48Thank you for everything.

1:57:07 > 1:57:09- Miss Andre?- Yes. - May I take your coat?

1:57:11 > 1:57:13Wait just a moment, please.

1:57:19 > 1:57:24..now, we have the Impressionists, a controversial group of painters.

1:57:32 > 1:57:34This is a Renoir. It is of

1:57:34 > 1:57:39the Marquis de Malineaux's daughter and was said to date from 1894.

1:57:39 > 1:57:44- Please stay with the group, Miss! - Me?

1:57:44 > 1:57:48We cannot have people wandering off by themselves!

1:57:48 > 1:57:50I must insist that you stay with the rest of us.

1:57:50 > 1:57:51Renoir is famous for his paintings

1:57:51 > 1:57:55of children, but this is one of his finest.

1:57:55 > 1:57:58Now we have a Corot...

1:57:58 > 1:58:06# Dream, when you're feeling blue... #

1:58:06 > 1:58:10..note the rich use of colour...

1:58:10 > 1:58:18# Dream, that's the thing to do... #

1:58:22 > 1:58:26- Hello, Julie. - Hello. What are you doing here?

1:58:27 > 1:58:30Ssh! Quiet, please!

1:58:30 > 1:58:33Do you know my guardian?

1:58:33 > 1:58:36Yes. Very well.

1:58:36 > 1:58:39- You never told me. - He asked me not to.

1:58:39 > 1:58:41But I knew you were coming today

1:58:41 > 1:58:42and I had to see him first because

1:58:42 > 1:58:47..there was something important I wanted to ask him.

1:58:47 > 1:58:50I'm so happy to see you.

1:58:50 > 1:58:54We conclude with the Pendleton family portraits.

1:58:54 > 1:58:59The first Jervis Pendleton, painted by Whistler.

1:59:02 > 1:59:08Jervis Pendleton II sat, or stood, for John Singer Sargent.

1:59:11 > 1:59:18# Dreams can be just as real as they seem... #

1:59:21 > 1:59:23This is Jervis Pendleton III,

1:59:23 > 1:59:29who, as you can see, has broken with family tradition somewhat.

1:59:29 > 1:59:32And that concludes our tour.

1:59:38 > 1:59:41Miss, the tour is... Oh, I'm sorry!

1:59:41 > 1:59:44Oh, course, sir! Good day, sir!

1:59:48 > 1:59:54Tell me, when you saw John Smith, what did you ask him?

1:59:54 > 1:59:55Since he's your guardian,

1:59:55 > 1:59:57I thought I should ask his permission

1:59:57 > 1:59:59before asking you to marry me.

1:59:59 > 2:00:02Oh. What did he say?

2:00:02 > 2:00:04He said I'd have to wait my turn.

2:00:04 > 2:00:06He wants to ask you himself.

2:00:07 > 2:00:10Why don't you?

2:00:32 > 2:00:39# Dream, that's the thing to do

2:00:43 > 2:00:50# Dreams can be just as real as they seem

2:00:51 > 2:00:57# So dream...

2:00:57 > 2:01:01# Dream...

2:01:02 > 2:01:05# Dream! #
