- I didn't hear it, Sir.
Well, it's somebody...
Listen, there it is again.
- You heard it then, didn't you?
- No, Sir!
Like a woman singing.
Hey, could it come from that
little island out there?
No, Sir, that's not an island,
not rightly, it's a key... Kiura.
Couldn't somebody swim out there?
No, Sir, that's black water out there,
full of sharks and barracudas.
But, by George, I see
somebody there now, look!
Couldn't be, Sir.
Seems to be gone now,
but... but I saw it all right.
And once more, it looked to ME like a girl.
The still, sweet fall of music far away.
Shut up!
At the Cabaa Club's
beach party that Saturday night
I looked about for someone who might be able
to shed a little light on this marine concert.
- Good evening, Sir.
- Good evening.
- I'll have a Rum Collins, please.
- Yes, Sir.
Will you join me, Sir?
I say, you join me in a drink, Sir?
- Are you American?
- Why, yes.
Then listen.
About a week ago
I had a very severe headache,
so my girlfriend makes me go
to this doctor, so, all right.
Well, this first thing he does, he...
he takes my blood pressure, it's too low.
Then he plugs me in on a
basal metabolism, it's too high.
Then he checks my heart, it's too weak.
When he x-rays me, I'm... I'm out of focus.
When I'm fluoroscoped, the
liver has disappeared.
So what do you think he says?
- What?
- Give up cigarettes.
- I'll have a beer.
- Yes, Sir.
- Well, what did he say was the matter with you?
- He don't know, he's baffled.
All he knows is:
Give up cigarettes.- For how long?
- Just 'til I go crazy.
Is he a first rate man?
He's a quack, a notorious quack, other
people wouldn't even send their dog to him.
Well, then, why do you go to him?
He's my girlfriend's brother.
Happy days.
But I must warn you, my Dearest,
Major Hadley is responsible for
MORE grey hairs among the married men
than ANY other bachelor in St. Hilda's.
- I'm so unscrupulous.
- An Englishman and NOT a gentleman?
- Oh! Good heavens, no!
- I must remember that.
Not that it'll do you any good,
he's completely taken now, body and soul.
- Aren't you, Dear?
- Well, just on approval.
- By who?
- By Cathy... Cathy Livingston.
Cathy Livingston, huh?
Yeah, she could swim out to that key,
she's a great swimmer.
- Why, you want to swim with her?
- Who me? Good heavens, no!
With a good, stiff tail wind I might do
20 or 30 feet, but not much more.
Is she here tonight, do you think?
Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
Oh, I think it'll be all right if we go out
here where the wind'll blow it away.
It's not necessary at all.
She's out there now, slapping
away at all that wet stuff.
- You've seen her?
- No, but that's what she's always doing
