1:03:02
As a matter of fact, Maude,
I'm becoming very attracted
to this young woman,

1:03:05
more so than anyone I've known
the same length of time.
Aha!

1:03:08
But I want to know how she is
early in the morning, late at night,

1:03:11
under trying circumstances,
as when the servants leave,
how she is with children...

1:03:15
What are you gonna do?
Rent some?
Perhaps we could borrow some.

1:03:18
You mean a mock marriage?
I certainly do not.

1:03:20
I revere marriage, unlike some people
I could mention. Oh, here.

1:03:24
But why Captain McGlue?
Of all the idiotic names!

1:03:28
Because I want him to build
your airport for you, darling.

1:03:31
He seems to have something
against my husband. I don't know why.
But as my brother...

1:03:35
Apart from the fact that I wouldn't
let him build a chicken coop for me,

1:03:38
I'd still like to know why
I'm to be called Captain McGlue!

1:03:41
Wasn't that your mother's name?
What? Captain McGlue?

1:03:44
Really, Geraldine!
Her name was McGrew.
M-C-G-R-E-W.

1:03:48
Oh, well, I'm sorry, darling.
I remembered it as McGlue.

1:03:51
Yes, well, I guess
I'm stuck with it now.
Captain McGlue!

1:03:54
What am I supposed to be
captain of? A garbage scow?

1:03:57
I just put that in
to make it more dignified.

1:03:59
Couldn't you have been
a captain in the last war?
Sure.

1:04:01
I was 11 years old at the finish.
A captain in knee britches.

1:04:04
What about the Boy Scouts?
I could go around building bonfires
on the drawing room carpet.

1:04:09
I'm sorry, darling.
I really meant it for the best.

1:04:11
I know you did.
That's what's so irritating about it.
Where'd you get the brother idea?

1:04:15
Because you had
your arms around me.

1:04:17
Oh, I suppose no one's ever had his
arms around you except your brother,
only you haven't got one.

1:04:21
I don't suppose Captain Hackensacker
ever put his arms around you.
Of course not.

1:04:25
Yachts must have changed
since the last time I was on one.
That's what they build yachts for.

1:04:30
Naturally he will put his arms
around me when and if we're engaged.

1:04:34
Oh, we're engaged now, are we?
Well, is there anything wrong
with being engaged?

1:04:37
You oughta know.
Where'd you get that suit?

1:04:40
That's what I was telling you about.
What's that you've got on your wrist?

1:04:44
Just what you think it is, dear.
What kind of stones are those?

1:04:47
Exactly what they look like.
1:04:49
Do you know what it feels like
to be strangled with bare hands?

1:04:52
Oh, now wait a minute, darling.
I've always been on the level
with you, and I always will be.
