Arise, My Love Page #5

Synopsis: In 1939, American Tom Martin, who fought in the Spanish Civil War, awaits execution at the hands of the Fascist victors when reporter Augusta 'Gusto' Nash, for a scoop, aids him in an audacious escape. Of course, Tom tries to romance Gusto; but though she likes him, her career comes first, and Tom himself prefers freedom-fighting to settling down. Comedy becomes drama as their mixed feelings lead them on a circuitous path through the deepening chaos and catastrophe of the early days of World War II.

Smile, Monsieur Martin.

Ready, you squirts?

Miss Nash, as European head

of the Associated News,

it is my privilege to welcome you

after your brilliant exploit.

You've thrilled millions

with your story which appeared

exclusively with the Associated News

in 400 papers around the world.

- Congratulations, Miss Nash.

- Thank you, Mr. Phillips.

I'm glad to do my bit for

a fellow American and Associated.

What you did will go down

in the annals of journalism,

side by side with the story

of Stanley's rescue of Livingston.

The legend of Tom Martin,

the captured eagle,

and Augusta Nash,

who set the eagle free.

Released exclusively

by the Associated News.

- I congratulate you, Mr. Martin.

- Thanks.

We hope your injury

is not too serious.

- No, it's nothing.

- Will you tell us about it?

Sure. I ran into an iceberg.

Now, if you don't mind,

I'll bow out of this circus.

Miss Nash, thanks.

Whatever thanks life is worth.

Mr. Martin!

What's the matter with him?

Martin! Tom!

Hello, Pink! Shep!

I'm glad to see you.

Me, too.

So they didn't get you, after all.

I thought you were dead,

buried and eaten by Spanish worms.

- They shot us down near Barcelona.

- A boat took us to Marseilles.

- There, there was a vice Consul...

- Isn't that one of my suits?

- Yeah.

- So is this.

We didn't think you'd use it,

so we claimed your trunk.

- A token to remember you by.

- How about some shorts?

- We're wearing those, too.

- You are?

- Can I have an autograph?

- Sorry. Let's get out of here.

I'm the one you're writing for.

Go on, get out of here!

Now, why did Martin

walk out on us?

- It's just his nose.

- Nose or no nose, we need him.

New York called.

They're hot for more on him.

I wired a thousand words.

They want 50,000

and a color photograph

for their Sunday supplement.

We had a misunderstanding.

He tried a shortcut.

Judas H. Iscariot, woman!

First you yammer that you want

to write more than fashion drool.

Finally, an idea creeps into

your bird brain and

you get a break.

Do you put your teeth in it?

I see where they finally found

someone to play Scarlett O'Hara.

Looks like the Yankees

are in the league this year.

If we miss that World Series again...

that all depends on the rabbits.

- Those rabbits!

- What rabbits?

Shep's mother runs a rabbit farm

in New Jersey

and promised to send passage money,

if the rabbits cooperate.

Ma's pretty cute.

Listen to this!

"My heart overflows with thanks

that you are alive, Buddy.

I want so much to see you".

Here it is!

"I read your letter to the rabbits

and told them to hurry up".

Nice. Two grown men walking

in the Place de la Concorde
