:38:02
Might as well be
dry-docked on the moon.
:38:05
They put me on
the Pelican.
:38:08
The Pelican! They're askin' you
to command that old pig boat?
:38:12
Command?
I'm second mate.
:38:15
Second mate!
Why, of all the...
:38:17
We sail within the hour
for Key West.
:38:19
They're beachin' me there
till I... dry-rot.
:38:23
No, Jack. Nobody's gonna
break us up that easy.
:38:27
That's what
he's tryin' to do.
:38:30
- He? Who?
- Wait here for just a minute.
:38:34
Mr. Tolliver's bitten off just a little
more than he'll be able to chew.
:38:43
Observe this
harmless object.
:38:45
- Look what Steve's got!
- What is it? A toothpick?
:38:48
- No, they call them matches.
- What are they for?
:38:51
I'll show you. Carruthers,
loan me the sole of your boot.
:38:55
- Goodness gracious!
- Mr. Tolliver, they're terrifyin'!
:38:59
- Well, I'm hanged.
- Do another, Steve.
:39:01
- I'd adore to do one, Steve.
- Cousin Steve, you do get
the quaintest things.
:39:05
They'll never be popular,
Tolliver. Too dangerous.
:39:08
- This is ours, I believe.
- May I claim this, Miss Thomas?
:39:12
- May I have the honor?
- I'd love it.
:39:14
I was just comin' to beg you
for this dance.
:39:17
- I'd like to speak to you
out on the balcony.
- Like Romeo and Juliet?
:39:20
Not exactly!
:39:22
Henrietta, do you allow
your niece to wander off unchaperoned?
:39:27
Oh, my dear.
:39:29
I've been just bubbling over
with excitement all day.
:39:32
Mr. Tolliver's asked
for Loxi's hand.
:39:36
Ettie,
Loxi and Mr. Tolliver!
:39:40
Oh, my goodness!
That is news!
:39:44
Engaged?
Stephen?
:39:47
- To that little savage from Key West?
- She's a pretty little savage.
:39:51
Moonlight and magnolias.
Just fits what I want to say to you.
:39:55
Steve, what you've done is the
most cowardly thing I've ever heard of.
:39:57
- Coming to the races?
- I hope your filly wins, Col. Ogier.
