:18:02
You hear what her mother said?
She goes to school, sings and dances.
:18:05
Look, that means she's no mug.
:18:06
Now, that kind of material
needs plenty of delicate handling.
:18:10
As a matter of fact,
the more I think about this...
:18:12
...the more I think
you should take a long walk.
:18:14
Hey, wait a minute.
:18:16
Hey, Ma, I got an A in algebra!
:18:21
Hello.
:18:22
- Hello.
- Hello.
:18:24
- Well, are you waiting for somebody?
- Yeah, waiting for your big sister.
:18:28
My big sister?
Why, I haven't got any big sister.
:18:33
- No big sister?
- Wait a minute.
:18:36
- Don't tell me you're Eddie? Eddie Bartlett?
- Yeah.
:18:39
My dream soldier.
:18:43
Oh, I wondered if I was ever
gonna get to see you.
:18:45
Oh, Mr. Bartlett, you look
just like I pictured you.
:18:48
Brave, strong, romantic
and handsome.
:18:54
Speaking of looks, how about this?
:18:57
That was taken when
I was in our high-school play.
:19:00
It was The Fortune Teller
by Victor Herbert.
:19:05
- But you said that you sang and danced.
- I do.
:19:09
Where?
:19:10
I sing in the choir every Sunday, and
I had the lead in our high-school play.
:19:13
Once in a while, I sing and dance
for the Elks Club. Everybody says I'm good.
:19:17
- Would you like to hear me?
- Oh, no, no. No, thanks.
:19:21
I have absolutely no ear for music.
:19:22
- Well, it was nice to see you.
- You aren't really leaving, are you?
:19:26
We gotta get back to town,
important meeting with the general.
:19:29
Aren't you gonna tell me about the war
and how you suffered?
:19:32
Honey...
:19:33
...you'll never know how I've suffered.
:19:35
So long.
:19:37
Well, will I see you again?
:19:38
- I'll call you.
- When?
:19:40
In two or three years,
when you get to be a great big girl.
:19:43
- So long.
- Bye.
:19:45
You should've stayed
and helped her with her homework.
:19:48
1920. For the first two weeks of the year...
:19:51
...men can still get a drink
more or less publicly...
:19:54
...because although the 18th Amendment
is in effect, the law has no teeth.
:19:58
But on the 16th of January,
the volstead Act takes effect...
