Born to Be Bad Page #2

Synopsis: Christabel fools everyone with her sweet exterior including her cousin Donna and Donna's wealthy fiancée Curtis. The only one who sees through her facade is Nick, a rugged writer who loves her anyway. Christabel also loves Nick, but she loves Curtis' money more. After convincing Curtis that Donna is only interested in him for his money, she tricks Curtis into marrying her. Of course, she still dallies with Nick on the side.

for the londer opening

tonight.

Not even

in the balcony?

Well, there must be

something.

Tell him to leave it

at the box office, dear.

All right. Yeah, yeah,

i know you would.

Thanks very much.

Bye.

Christabel,

you'll need a wrap.

I couldn't get

another ticket.

Why didn't you call

joe bishop, dear?

I did call

joe bishop.

What are we

going to do?

Why don't

you two go?

That's silly.

Why don't you take

christabel?

Well, now,

wait a minute.

I could stay here.

I don't think

i made enough

hors d'oeuvres, anyway.

Now, i wouldn't hear

of it.

Well, let's all

stay home.

Curtis.

Isn't there someone

you can phone?

Yes-joe bishop.

Here, let me

help you.

There.

That softens your face

so much.

Isn't she beautiful?

Very. Come on, we have

to go. It's getting late.

I feel simply dreadful

about this.

I don't want to hear

another word.

See you later.

Have a wonderful

time.

Hello.

Yes?

Oh, aunt clara, i've

been trying to reach you,

but your line's

been busy.

You don't know how worried i've been

waiting for you

to answer.

Christabel,

i've been frantic.

I've called all over town

for you. Where are you?

I'm at donna's. I know how you must

have felt when you got home, and-

just a minute, aunt

clara. Somebody's just-

hello. Hello?

Hello!

Christabel, is everything all right?

I talked to donna,

and l-

oh, yes, dear, i'm having a wonderful time.

Get off the phone!

Hello? Hello.

What are you

doing here?

Eating.

What are you

doing here?

I live here.

Oh, no. Try again.

Who are you?

Janitor.

How dare you interrupt

my telephone call.

Careful or i'll shut off

the water. Who are you?

I'm christabel caine.

Ok, chris,

where's the salt?

I don't know.

You'd know

if you lived here.

Does miss foster

know you do this?

I think you'd better

get out of here.

Now, where's

the pepper?

I don't know.

You don't know very much, do

you? Well, you don't have to.

'Cause you're

awful pretty.

I'll start things

in the kitchen.

Here, you hide in here,

and i'll fix it

so you can crash

the party later.

Donna!

Donna, there's a monster in your kitchen!

What?

She always keeps her monsters on ice.

Hi, nick.

Where do you hide the

mustard? Hiya, curtis.

Hello, nick.

I was afraid you wouldn't get here.

Been wondering the same thing

about you. Do you know this woman?

I'm sorry, nick.

This is-

i know.

We've been rassling.

Give me another.

I left a manuscript here

for you to read, remember?

It's good...

except in places, i think

it's still too brutal.

That's funny. I copied whole

passages right out of little women,

just for people

like you.

I know the stories you've

told me about china.
