A Countess from Hong Kong Page #5

with hot chocolate sauce," sir?

That's about it.

Oh, no, sir. It's not bad

for an upset stomach.

Ogden.

Oh, excuse me.

Why don't you go to bed?

I thought I'd wait for you.

Oh, that is, I don't know where to go.

You'd better run along

to your lifeboat.

It's no laughing matter.

However, you can sleep

in the next room.

- Where are you going to sleep?

- That's my business.

There's another bed in the other room,

if you'd care to sleep there.

Thank you. I'm sleeping on the sofa.

I suppose you have

nothing to sleep in.

Oh, don't bother.

- Here, you can use these and this.

- Thank you.

I'm sorry I don't have

any hairpins or toothbrush.

I feel terrible putting you

to all this trouble.

Hmm. You can write me to that effect

when you're off this boat.

Come in.

Ogden, you mustn't.

Please don't turn the radio down.

Keep it up. Keep it up.

Sorry.

Get up out of there.

Oh, I wish you'd let me sleep here.

I feel I'm robbing you of your bed.

You're robbing me of my sleep.

Look. I'm very comfortable here.

Oh! Ah!

- Mr Ogden, are you asleep?

- Yes. What is it?

It's Crawford. Harvey's been in bed

all day with an upset stomach.

- Can ya give him something?

- Just a minute.

- Goodnight, Crawford.

- Goodnight, boss.

Now, you get in the other room

and stay there.

Be careful.

These pyjamas are transparent.

- So are you.

- Goodnight.

Come in.

I believe this is yours.

- Goodnight.

- Goodnight.

Up, come on, get up.

We're gonna be in Kobi in 15 minutes.

- Now, what are you

going to have for breakfast?

- Oh, anything, sir.

Two boiled eggs... four minutes...

a little bacon, toast and coffee.

Eggs, bacon, toast and coffee.

- Oh, and hot milk to go with the coffee.

- Hot milk.

- Oh, yes, and marmalade.

- And marmalade.

Boiled eggs.

I suppose they're fresh?

I don't know about the eggs.

Who is it?

Steward, sir.

- Good morning, sir. Breakfast?

- Yes.

"Two eggs, bacon, toast and coffee,

hot milk, marmalade."

That all, sir?

- Yes, and would you serve it

in the next room, please?

- Very good, sir.

- What were you doing?

- The bath was overflowing.

So I turned the taps off.

Good morning, boss. I just came

to tell you a batch of reporters...

got on with the pilot and they're

waiting now to interview you.

Morning, Ogden. A batch

of reporters got on with the pilot.

- They're waiting to interview you.

- I can't see anybody before breakfast.

Say about 11.00?

They're in the lounge.

I can keep them busy for a while,

but it might be a good idea...

to bring them here and give them a drink

and sandwich to sweeten them up.

Harvey, I'll see you after breakfast.

I have to collect myself.

Good. Fine.

I'll see you after breakfast.
