a genius you are! Fix it.

We're gonna need

one hell of a lawyer.

I think we're gonna

need a helmet.

- [ Honking ]

- Whose is it?

Yours.

'Evening, Miss Pye.

You know my rules;

no gentlemen after 6:00 p.m.

- Well, I'm no gentleman.

- You can say that again.

- Hello.

- Hi.

- Good night, Mrs. Pye.

- Have a good time.

If he tries anything, deck him.

Don't forget the curfew.

- I lock up at 11:00 sharp.

- [ Cliff ] Yes, warden.

Guess what?

I think I got the part.

- That's great.

- I won't know for sure 'til tomorrow,

but the director said he

liked my reading the best.

- You have lines this time.

- Just one.

- But it's to Neville Sinclair.

- Okay!

Let's hear it.

"Oh, my prince.

would that you'd

drink of my lips as deeply."

And then he kisses you?

No. He's too busy

killing someone.

- Now you tell me.

- What?

The maiden voyage.

How'd she fly?

She flew great.

Landing had a few bumps.

We'd better scram if we're

gonna catch this Cagney movie.

Uh-uh-uh.

It's my turn to pick.

Uh-oh.

There's a new

Neville Sinclair movie.

Oh, Jen, you know

Cagney's better.

You won't catch Cagney

lounging around his penthouse,

walking poodles in the park,

or doing any of --

Or getting shot down

behind enemy lines?

- What are you talking about?

- The movie,

"Wings of Honor."

- Neville Sinclair?

- Uh-huh.

Oh, brother.

This I gotta see.

[ Announcer ] Hitler assures

the western powers

he is not massing troops at the Czech border.

Here comes the Fuhrer's latest

symbol of German progress,

the airship "Luxembourg,"

beginning its American tour...

- to promote world peace.

- [ Cliff ] World peace!

What he means is

a piece of the world!

Excuse me.

-...on the first stop of their goodwill tour.

- Their last goodwill tour

- buried half of Europe.

- Shh.

Though filled with

explosive hydrogen --

Your Gee Bee could fly

circles around that thing.

After the short visit, it was

into the clouds to continue a journey...

that will carry the "Luxembourg"

to Chicago, St. Louis,

across the Rockies...

and finally to Los Angeles.

Look us up, boys,

when you get to Hollywood.

[ Radio:

Comedy Routine ]

[ Moaning ]

Who's there?

Who is it?

- What do you want?

- Where is it?

- Where's what?

- The rocket.

I don't answer to nobody

but Eddie Valentine.

[ Laughing ]

Okay, okay!

Ease off!

I pulled a switch. I got

the package stashed real good.

It's at the airfield, hangar 3.

It's in some old plane.

[ Radio ]

[ Screaming ]

- Hey, open this door.

- Are you okay?

- What is it? What happened?

- [ Scream ]

[ Cliff Laughing ]

And then,

get this, fellas,

at the end of the movie...
