It makes you look like a dandy.
You always think the boys are wearing
their hats over one eye.
- Let him wear it the way it is.
- He'll have to wear a stovepipe in London.
- They call them poppers over there.
- Toppers.
Bobby, put that in the box for Uncle John,
will you?
- Let me try it on.
- No, I want to try it on.
- Now he's a regular war correspondent.
- Without a war.
I'm afraid he'll get his war.
- They're throwing a big bluff over there.
- Let's hope so.
How do you like the way
we've our little nest furnished?
If I were you, I'd hang lighter curtains,
and move that sofa out here.
It's too bad you haven't an open fireplace.
If you'd speak to the captain,
I think he'd attend to everything.
All ashore that's going ashore!
Now, Mother.
Goodbye, John.
- Take care of yourself.
- Thank you.
You're Jones?
I'm Stebbins, London man for the Globe.
Mr. Powers told me you'd probably
be here. Nice of you to come.
Reminds me. I lost mine on the way over.
I can say your other name, too.
That Huntley...
I could say it yesterday...
but I had a rather tough session
with the boys last night.
- So I'll stick to Jones if you don't mind.
Let's go. This crowd's making me nervous.
My nerves aren't in the pink.
Just take it easy.
Porter, bring those bags. And don't
bang them into my knees from behind.
What about a drink
after that long train ride?
Sounds like a very logical idea.
I may not act it,
but I've been here 25 years.
London man for the Globe
and they haven't caught onto me yet.
How'd you manage it?
Cable back the government handouts
and sign them...
"Our London correspondent."
- What's yours?
- Scotch and soda, please.
Miss?
Miss, please.
- Scotch and soda, and a glass of milk.
- A glass of milk?
I'm on the wagon. I went to the doctor
today about these jitters I got...
and he said it was the wagon for a month
or a whole new set of organs.
I can't afford a whole new set of organs.
If I'd known you're on the wagon,
I could have got along without this.
But as long as it's here...
Good luck.
Good?
- Yeah, just like any other Scotch and soda.
- That's what I thought.
Doesrt taste the way it did
when I was a baby. That's got poison in it.
Speaking of that, I've got some pills
I got to take.
Here's some cables that have been
coming over from New York.
They love to cable. It makes them think
you're working for them.
There's an invitation to that lunch
for the Dutchman Van Meer tomorrow.
I guess that's your dish.
This is given by the Universal Peace Party.
That's Fisher's organization, right?
I don't know.
