Lover Come Back Page #2

This isn't the first account

he's taken away from us.

Then why don't you haul him up in

front of the Advertising Council

and charge him

with unethical conduct?

And who do you think will testify?

Miller? The girls?

Besides, there's no law against

entertaining a client.

Well, there must be a law against

that kind of entertaining.

It was a Roman orgy!

I saw this girl being carried

out in a bass-fiddle case.

You can imagine

what else went on.

Yeah!

Mr. Brackett, surely you don't

condone Webster's methods?

Of course not!

No ethical agency does.

Well, then, how does

he get away with it?

Ramsey and Son

has a fine reputation.

When the old man was alive,

he ruled with an iron hand.

I don't think young Ramsey

knows what's going on.

Then it's time

somebody told him.

Miss Templeton, you've only

been with us for a short time.

We've learned to live

with Mr. Webster.

He's like the common cold.

You know you're gonna get it

once or twice a year.

Mr. Brackett, there are two

ways to handle a cold,

you can fight it, or you can

give in and go to bed with it.

I intend to fight it!

Wait here.

Hey. Hey!

That's a cab zone.

Beat it, buddy.

I am not your buddy.

I happen to be Peter Ramsey.

I don't care if you're

Peter Rabbit. Beat it!

How would you like a fat lip?

Fine. Fine.

Harrison,

give him a fat lip!

Okay, so park there!

Hope Mr. Webster won't get angry. I've

never let a man into his apartment.

I assume full responsibility.

I am his employer.

All right, Mr. Webster.

Now hear this.

It has been brought

to my attention

that you are guilty of conduct unbecoming

an employee of Ramsey and Son.

You have embarked upon this course

without my knowledge or consent.

My father, the Commodore, would

not brook insubordination,

and now that the command

has passed to me,

by thunder, neither will I.

I demand a full and complete explanation

of these charges here and now,

or heads will roll.

Speak up, man. I'm waiting.

Do you realize

what you just broke?

My psychiatrist gave me that

to build up my confidence!

I ought to break your neck,

barging in on me like this.

Take it easy. Come on,

come on, come on!

I had a very rough morning.

Took a terrible tongue-lashing

from that Carol Templeton.

Who's that?

New account executive at

Brackett, MacAlpin and Gaines.

She accused you of pirating

the Miller Wax account.

She said you got Mr. Miller

tipsy and you got him a girl.

That's not true. I got him loaded

and there were seven girls.

Just a moment! Hey!

I'm head of the company.

You're accountable to me,

do you hear?

I leave the bridge for five minutes

and you steer the ship on the rocks!

I demand to know if your conduct
