- He's getting a divorce!
- Excuse me.

1:10:12
Your wife's waiting for you in Honolulu.
It just came over the radio.

1:10:16
I know. I just got a telegram.
1:10:18
She's coming aboard this evening
and she's not getting a divorce.

1:10:21
What about Natascha?
1:10:23
That's the problem.
1:10:25
You've got to think fast.
We arrive at 9.30.

1:10:28
- You've got to get her out of your cabin!
- Where's she gonna go?

1:10:32
- She can sleep in my cabin.
- That's out.

1:10:37
You didn't let me finish.
1:10:40
I could double in
with Crawford or Hudson.

1:10:42
Crawford and Hudson
are staying with two other fellows.

1:10:45
- You can't let her stay where she is.
- Obviously not.

1:10:50
I've got it. You can say
she's married to Hudson.

1:10:53
- Hudson?
- Say, that's an idea. If she was married
to an American citizen...

1:10:57
she could get into the States
without any trouble.

1:11:08
- You wish to see me, sir?
- Yes, Hudson. Sit down.

1:11:12
Thank you, sir.
1:11:15
- Would you like a drink?
- Uh, no, thank you, sir.

1:11:18
Uh, Hudson, you are
an American citizen, aren't you?

1:11:21
I've been an American citizen
for the past 16 years, sir.

1:11:25
- Good. I want you to do me a favour.
- Yes, sir.

1:11:29
You remember that attractive lady
I was dancing with last night?

1:11:33
I do, sir.
1:11:35
Well, I want you to marry her.
1:11:39
- Marry who, sir?
- The lady I just mentioned.

1:11:42
It'll only be a temporary affair,
and afterwards, you can get a divorce.

1:11:45
If I may say so, sir,
this is rather sudden.

1:11:50
I think I will take
a brandy after all, sir.

1:11:53
I agree it's somewhat extemporaneous,
but it's a matter of urgency.

1:11:59
If the lady is married to
an American citizen...
