and ceiling ?

? Like a door

and doorknob ?

? Like the hat

on your knob ?

? Like butler goes

with doorbell ?

? Keyhole with key ?

? I think we'll get by ?

? If you'll stick with me ?

? We should be together ?

? Like the frame

and picture ?

? Like shoes

and stockings ?

? Like the clock's

tick-tockings ?

- ? Like tap and toe like high and low ?

- ? Stop and go, honey ?

- ? You're a perfect lady ?

- ? You're a regular guy ?

[ Laughs ]

Oh, thanks.

? We should be together

you and I ?

[ Dings ]

- ? You're a cup of coffee ?

- Ho, ho!

? You're a peachy pie ?

? We should be together

you and I ?

- Roger, what's going on?

- Oh, g-good morning, Aunt Sarah.

Betsy, this is Miss Wendling,

and this is Uncle Willoughby.

How do you do,

Miss Wendling?

- How do you do, Mr. Uncle Willoughby?

- Charmed, I'm sure.

What nonsense are you up to?

This isn't nonsense.

This is high finance.

[ Rattles ]

Hear the pretty music?

This young lady wants

to give you money to pay the rent.

- Oh, nonsense!

- Come on, Betsy.

- So you've gone in for social service?

- Oh, not exactly, Aunt Sarah.

- I just met an acquaintance here.

- [ Rattles ]

There's almost five dollars in there.

I'm sure Pop'll have the rest of it

for you very soon.

- Bless my soul!

- Keep your soul out of this.

- You'll please get rid of this child.

- But, Aunt Sarah--

If those people think they can

play on my sympathy like this...

they're greatly mistaken.

I'll have my rent-- all of it--

or out they go.

Please, Miss Wendling.

Please don't put Pop out of the hotel.

He and Barbara and Jimmy and everybody,

they'll have no place to live.

That's their affair,

not mine.

But, Aunt Sarah,

aren't you being a little bit hard?

- Yes, Sarah, I think--

- Think to yourself.

The place is an infernal nuisance,

full of worthless, disreputable actors.

They are not disputable!

They're very good actors.

- Thank you.

- [ Chuckles ]

- Roger.

-Just charge it to my share of the estate.

-[ Laughs ]

Simmons.

You will get rid of this child.

You don't need to get rid of me.

I can go.

Just a moment, Betsy.

Aunt Sarah, I don't wish

to seem impertinent...

but after all, I do have

a third interest in the hotel.

As long as I have charge of

the Wendling estate...

I'll handle it in my own way.

Simmons, see this child

to the door. Stand aside.

Uh, that'll be all, Simmons.

I'll see the young lady home.

- Come on, Betsy.

- Wait. Shh.Just a minute.

- Here, take these.

- Thanks, Uncle Willoughby.

- Simmons, get my hat and coat, please.

- Very good, sir.

Say, I may want to see you

about this a little later.

No, no, no. I don't want

to be involved, but I'll be at the club.
