:11:03
I said we're here. What's the matter?
:11:07
- I just want to die.
- You what?
:11:11
It's awful. It never should have happened.
:11:13
Listen, you didn't burn down an orphanage.
:11:16
You got kissed in a file room. That's all.
:11:19
- I'm a thief.
- Thief?
:11:21
The lowest kind of a thief,
stealing another woman's man.
:11:25
Yeah?
:11:26
The cake I brought. The girl you left behind.
:11:28
She sent a love letter and you fell in love
with the postman.
:11:31
Those things happen, like electrons,
positive and negative.
:11:35
- One day they get together and wham!
- No!
:11:38
No wham.
:11:40
- We've got to get control of ourselves.
- Can we?
:11:43
It would be wiser
not to see each other again.
:11:45
- I suppose it would.
- We can't go on with our investigation.
:11:49
- So we drop it.
- No. No, I'll go on alone.
:11:53
- I could enlist the help of the general.
- No.
:11:56
Why not?
:11:58
Miss Frost, Congresswoman,
Postman, darling,
:12:03
to know that you're here and around
and I couldn't see you, I'd go crazy.
:12:07
We've got to be strong.
:12:08
This business about Dusty, it's not serious.
It's just a college crush.
:12:13
- I have a dreadful sense of guilt.
- We're not engaged.
:12:16
I'm not committed in any way.
:12:19
It would break her heart, the daughter of
the man who swung the 4th Precinct.
:12:24
No, it won't.
She's a kind of a flighty kid, you know.
:12:27
She's been engaged to four guys
since I've been gone,
:12:30
one of them a feed and grain merchant.
:12:33
Think what a good provider he'd make.
:12:35
Oh, John...
:12:38
I don't even know your first name,
Congresswoman darling.
:12:41
- Phoebe.
- Phoebe.
:12:43
Isn't that ridiculous?
:12:45
Not a bit ridiculous.
:12:49
How about a good-night kiss, Phoebe?
:12:54
Good night.
