on the wrong tack, Regi.
I wish I could show you
You can't.
I know what love can get you into.
I know what it got my mother into.
She was young and pretty once.
I saw her count pennies
and wash and struggle...
until she was old and ugly.
until he hated to come home.
You couldn't blame him.
You couldn't blame anything but poverty.
I see.
Oh, I didn't mean to
let my back hair down so far.
But that's what you get
for encouraging me.
Oh, I'm terribly sorry!
Oh, don't worry
about that.
It's awful.
I'm so sorry.
The only thing that worries me
is you, your ideas.
But you certainly seem
to know what you want.
I know a lot of things.
You certainly do.
And I'll bet you forget all of them
when the right man comes along.
No, I won't. You can't blame me
Only I say I do.
Well, if you'll excuse me,
after making a mess of things
I'll go back to the grind.
You've had enough
for one day.
Not nearly.
Gee, I'm sorry
I spilt the tea.
Oh!
Accidents
can happen to anyone.
See?
Thanks. I'm afraid you do it
better than I do.
Good-bye.
Good-bye.
Peter'll see you to the door.
Yes, he always does.
You know, I feel like a chiseler
when I take your money. Funny, isn't it?
the only real friend I've got.
Thanks.
It's been a lot of fun.
Confessions and all?
Confessions and all, Regi.
Bye.
Good-bye.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't know the lights
were against me.
That's all right.
Hopscotch.
Hopscotch?
Mm-hmm.
Indoor hopscotch.
Not up to turf and field hopscotch,
but hopscotch nevertheless.
- Get the idea?
- Yes, I get the idea.
- Do you wanna play?
- No, thanks.
Well, every man
to his own sport.
You'll be sorry
when I'm champion!
Savoy-Cariton Barber Shop.
Manicure? Yes.
Right away. Yes, sir.
What name, please?
Oh, yes, sir!
Regi, I'm gonna give you
your Christmas present in May.
What?
The answer to every working girl's prayer
just called up for a manicure.
So get out your hope chest, dearie.
- Who is he?
- Theodore Drew III, baby.
Three's a bad number-
That doesn't mean anything.
- It means he must have had a grandfather.
- Is he rich?
Not only rich,
but young and handsome.
What do you talk about to a guy like that?
What does he like?
- Blondes, probably.
- Well, you can't talk about that.
Then tell him how you just love polo.
That's always safe.
Thanks.
Oh, sorry, this is reserved
for an appointment.
Aw, but I have an-
Sorry.
Excuse me.
Pardon me.
Are you taken?
Uh, for what?
A manicure.
Oh, no.
Are you interested
in numerology?
No.
