1:13:00
Will you meet me
at the Paradise Roof in 20 minutes?
1:13:02
All right, I'll meet you.
But nothing you can say will stop me...
1:13:06
from telling that Allenbury gal tonight.
Remember that.
1:13:13
Here's the headline proof
on the Allenbury yarn.
1:13:23
Swell, elegant, magnificent.
1:13:24
We'll write in the gory details
when we hear from Gladys.
1:13:27
What's keeping her? It's after 12:00.
1:13:29
The old man's probably trying to bribe her.
1:13:31
Say, that'll make a swell subhead.
1:13:33
"Rich father tries to bribe wronged wife."
1:13:36
I wonder where that
skunk Chandler is now.
1:13:38
He probably ducked
to China or Africa or something.
1:13:41
Hello, Warren.
1:13:43
- Where have you been?
- Dancing.
1:13:46
- What did you say?
- Dancing.
1:13:49
You know...
1:13:52
You mean you didn't go
to the Allenburys'? You didn't...
1:13:54
- No, we decided against it.
- Why you...
1:13:58
Self-control, Warren.
Very important for a man your age.
1:14:00
Here. Throw this out. Go on.
1:14:02
Now what have you got
to say for yourselves?
1:14:04
- Don't shout, Warren. We're not used to it.
- Are you going to tell me what happened?
1:14:09
You'd better tell him, Bill.
His blood pressure...
1:14:12
Yes. Perhaps you're right.
1:14:14
Warren, what would you say if I told you...
1:14:16
that I had almost persuaded
Miss Allenbury to drop the case?
1:14:19
I'd say you were a dirty,
double-dealing liar, and I'd be right.
1:14:22
I won't stand here
and listen to you being insulted.
1:14:25
Come on, Bill.
1:14:26
Is that so? Wait. Listen to this.
1:14:28
Not four hours ago,
I heard your two-timing Romeo...
1:14:30
whispering sweet nothings
into the ears of Connie Allenbury.
1:14:33
What do you think of that?
1:14:34
Bill told me all about it. That's technique,
Warren. You wouldn't understand it.
1:14:38
Why didn't you tell me
you were seeing Connie Allenbury?
1:14:41
Sure, and have you spoil
all my good work...
1:14:43
as you did tonight, barging in...
1:14:44
just as I'd about convinced her
to drop the case.
1:14:46
We didn't need any charity from her.
1:14:48
All Gladys had to do
was bust into the house.
1:14:50
As Bill says, and have you
smear our names all over your paper...
1:14:53
you headline hunter.
1:14:54
Believe me, this way is better and cleaner.
1:14:57
Tomorrow evening, the Allenburys
are giving a party. I'll be there.
