- I'm sorry, but it's getting late.
- It's never too late for a cat.
You're lying there in bed reading
that wonderful travelogue in the Daily Mail
and wanting to go places
and wondering if you ever will.
And all of a sudden, you're a cat
and you start to climb
and you leap out of the window into the fog.
Then suddenly the fog lifts,
and it isn't London, it's Baghdad.
Next week, I'll be in Cairo.
Oh, it's so wonderful to be a cat
and read the Daily Mail.
Look, I implore you...
(DOORBELL BUZZING)
Good heavens, there they are now. Please...
- Yes?
- I'm the...

Cluny Brown, has something happened

Get your things here.
You never will know your place.
But, Uncle Arn, what is my place?
What's anybody's place? What's your place?
If you want to feed nuts to the squirrels,
who am I to say... do you?
That settles it.
You're going into service, you are.
You're going to be a domestic
in a decent home. Come along.
Oh, by the way, I haven't paid you yet.
Will this do?
You can't buy me off
- Come, Cluny Brown.
- Thank you, gentlemen, for everything.
a symbol of the empire filthy.
Permit me.
Filthy? I differ with him emphatically, Ames.
When the lower classes
start throwing away pound notes,
the upper classes better look out.
I dare say.
or maybe you don't care
# But I spend a great part of my time
on the fringes of Mayfair
but I go to them just the same #
- Why do people go to cocktail parties?
- Because people give cocktail parties.
- Why do people give them?
It's a vicious circle. Like perpetual motion.
Oh, it's depressing.
Parties and people laughing,
with Europe on the brink.
Yes. Hitler and Vienna and Prague,
and people go around having fun.
Oh, I'm so tired of hearing Hitler
and Mussolini and...
Betty, I'm surprised!
You talk like a superficial girl who thinks
