I DON'T UNDERSTAND MYSELF.

I SERIOUSLY THINK

IT MUST BE THE WAY

YOU PICK THOSE BITS OF

CIGARETTE PAPER OFF YOUR LIPS.

NOW, THAT'S NICE...

STYLISH.

WHEN YOU TALK LIKE THAT, I ADMIRE YOU.

MAKES A GIRL:

FEEL GOOD.

MY DEAR LADY,

MY DEAR MYSTERIOUS LADY,

WOULD YOU DO ME:

A BIG FAVOR:

AND LET ME IN:

ON A SECRET?

A COUPLE OF HOURS AGO,

YOU WERE BLUE.

WAS I?

YOU THOUGHT OF ALL THE RUSTY,

BACKSTAGE DRESSING ROOMS

YOU WERE GOING HOME TO.

YOU THOUGHT OF ALL THE 10-CEN JOBS YOUR AGENT GETS YOU.

I THINK YOU WOULD HAVE MARRIED

CHARLIE McCARTHY HIMSELF

IF HE'D HAVE ASKED YOU.

WHAT'S HAPPENED

TO YOU NOW?

GREETINGS!

I WANT TO SEE YOU.

YES, SIR?

ARE YOU THE ONLY STEWARD

ON THIS BOAT?

WELL, SIR,

YOU SEE-

YES, YES.

I KNOW, THE WAR.

I HAVE SOME OF:

MY STAFF PEOPLE WITH ME.

FIND THEM AND SEND THEM

TO MY CABIN RIGHT AWAY.

I'M SORRY, SIR.

THEY'RE NOT ONBOARD.

YOU'RE WRONG.

THOSE MEN ARE HERE.

THE FACT OF:

THE MATTER IS-

TAKE IT EASY. MR. LINGLEY

IS A BAD MAN TO CONTRADICT.

HE CAN GET YOU FIRED.

YOUR SECRETARY,

YOUR MASSEUR:

WERE NEVER TAKEN

ONBOARD.

BY WHOSE ORDERS?

DO NOT ASK QUESTIONS,

REMEMBER?

YOU ARE TRAVELING UNDER

WARTIME CONDITIONS.

WHO STOPPED THEM?

WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE?

I WANT TO KNOW.

MAY I SAY, SIR, YOU WON'T NEED

YOUR MEN ON THIS SHIP.

WHO THE DEVIL:

ARE YOU:

TO TELL ME WHAT I NEED OR DON'T NEED?

NOW, IT DOES

SOUND STRANGE,

BUT BELIEVE ME, SIR,

I KNOW.

AH, BUT YOU DON'T.

MR. LINGLEY

REALLY NEEDS THEM...

FOR HIS:

PEACE OF MIND.

YOU SEE, IT WASN' AN ORDINARY SECRETARY

OR AN ORDINARY MASSEUR.

THOSE MEN WERE HIS

PERSONAL BODYGUARDS.

WHY DON'T YOU MIND

YOUR OWN BUSINESS?

YOU KNOW NOTHING

ABOUT IT.

NOT TRUE, MR. LINGLEY.

I KNOW YOU.

IF I WERE YOU, I'D WAN A BODYGUARD, TOO-

A HUNDRED OF THEM.

A THOUSAND.

YES, I'VE GOT BODYGUARDS.

WHAT OF IT?

THERE'S A WAR GOING ON.

I'M MIXED UP IN

PRETTY BIG AFFAIRS-

WORLD AFFAIRS.

THERE ARE:

ENEMY AGENTS AROUND.

YOU'RE A BIT BALLED UP,

MR. LINGLEY.

THE ENEMY'S GO NOTHING AGAINST YOU.

WHO ARE YOU?

CAPTAIN KIDD.

POPEYE THE SAILOR.

THE VOICE:

WITH A SMILE.

WHAT DIFFERENCE?

COME OUT,

MR. LINGLEY.

WE KNOW YOU.

WE KNOW:

YOUR LONG VIEW.

YOU'RE RUNNING AROUND

LIKE A WILD MAN,

GRABBING WHILE:

THE GRABBING IS GOOD.

SHUT UP.

I'VE HEARD ENOUGH.

SHUT UP.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

IT'S NO USE TO YOU.

YOU COULDN' DO A THING TO ME.

I CAN'T, EH?

NO, BECAUSE YOU'VE

DONE IT ALREADY.

THE NAME IS PRIOR-

THOMAS PRIOR.

FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT.

WASHED-UP INTERNATIONAL EXPERT.

OH, THAT EXPLAINS IT.

WHY YOU'RE THE MAN

WHO CABLED:

THOSE MUCKRAKING PIECES

ABOUT ME TO AMERICA.

THE SAME.

I OWE THIS:

RETURN TRIP TO YOU.

YOU'RE THE SWEETHEAR

WHO PULLED ALL:
