:43:03
-There's one other thing to do.
-What's that?

:43:05
Sorry.
l don't feel romantic this afternoon.

:43:08
No, nothing like that.
lt's serious. lt's about Bert.

:43:10
-What's on your mind?
-You won't like it.

:43:13
You'll have to get a divorce
if you want to open that restaurant.

:43:16
What's that got to do with it?
:43:18
ln California, they got
a community property law.

:43:20
-Half of what's Bert's is yours.
-What's half of nothing?

:43:23
lt works two ways.
Half of what you own is Bert's.

:43:26
You open that restaurant and Bert's
creditors will be saying, ''Give me.''

:43:30
-ls a divorce the only answer?
-Why?

:43:32
-lt takes a year to get a divorce.
-Are you getting cold feet?

:43:36
Why bother if it takes a year?
:43:37
lt takes a year to be final. Once
entered, the creditors can't touch you.

:43:41
-Your worries are over.
-l'll be seeing Bert next week.

:43:44
He's coming to take
the children for the weekend.

:43:47
-l'll think about it.
-Nothing to think about!

:43:49
-No divorce, no restaurant!
-l'll think about it, Wally!

:43:53
l'd have to know a little more about
it. Divorce is serious. l'm not--

:43:57
-Hello, Dad!
-Hello, dear.

:43:58
We'll be down in a minute.
:43:59
Veda wants to know where
her new bathing suit is.

:44:02
-lt's in the top drawer of her dresser.
-Okay!

:44:06
She says it's in the upper drawer
of the dresser.

:44:12
Here.
:44:15
l wonder if there are many boys
up at Arrowhead.

:44:17
lf there are, they're sure to find you.
Don't worry.

:44:20
-Well, what about you and Wally Fay?
-You should know better than that.

:44:25
Bert, listen. l've put everything
l've got into this restaurant.

:44:29
l've worked with painter, carpenters,
electricians.

:44:31
And suddenly,
everything is beginning to take shape.

:44:34
l've worked hard.
l'm going to get that divorce.

:44:37
l know. You want me to poke you in the nose
so you can claim l was guilty of cruelty.

:44:42
No, Mildred. No divorce.
:44:45
l'm going to file papers.
There's little you can do about it.

:44:48
-l don't need your permission.
-No? Well, file away.

:44:52
l'll fight you all the way.
You and Wally Fay.

:44:54
-And what's more, l'm--
-You don't have to worry about me.

:44:59
Well, that was quick.
My, how nice you look.
