Remember, kiss, kiss.

- Yeah.

Will you watch my switchboard, please?

I won't only watch your switchboard,

but I'll buzz your lights

and tangle your plugs.

- Come here, baby.

- Not with your friend watching.

- Oh, he's gone.

- What are we waiting for?

- My Sagittarius is rising. Hang on, boy.

- No, you're supposed to fight me.

- You're supposed to fight me. No!

- No, no, no. Don't fight.

Easy, gal,

he just got some new bearings.

Here, you dropped this.

The stars were right.

My Jupiter's jumping.

Now, stout, fella.

I think we're getting somewhere now.

Yeah, and I think

my blister's getting a blister.

Look, it's smart business

to get in good with the boss' secretary.

Yeah? Why don't you

go into business for yourself?

Put more men on the job.

Here she comes. Grab her, kiss her.

Kiss her again!

- What do you think you're doing?

- Oh, I'm awfully sorry, ma'am.

I thought you were someone else.

He told me to kiss you,

except you're not you, are you?

You told him to kiss me?

Lady, if I had known

he was gonna kiss you,

I wouldn't have sent a boy

to do a man's job.

That's for the man.

You can tell him the job's filled.

- Oh, look what you've done.

- Oh, the Bat Lady.

Are you Miss Abigail Parker,

Miss Parker?

Are you Miss Parker, Miss Parker?

I'm Eugene Fullstack.

- You should lay off protein.

- No, that's my name.

Look, I'm sorry he kissed you,

and he's sorry he kissed you,

aren't you, Eugie?

- No, I liked that a lot.

- No. Look, come here.

You stay here and see if you can

sell Murdock one of your stories.

Maybe between the both of us,

one of us might get a job. Go on.

Hold it, Miss Parker.

Oh, you gotta help us.

My partner said he went to your door

last night and saw a real Bat Lady.

Yes. My model was posing.

Now may I go?

Well, what's the rush?

I never met a lady cartoonist before.

All lady cartoonists

are extremely grateful.

Well, I'm an artist myself.

What do you say

we get together sometime

and compare mad scientists?

I sure love the way

you draw the Bat Lady.

Lovely lines.

I like the way

your bone structure is structured.

Dandy "tibialis gastrocnemiuses", also.

- Going up?

- Yes, down.

Try sideways,

then once around the park.

Parker will do better, dear.

She's going to do substantially better.

That's what I said.

Yeah, so don't fret

your ever-loving fretter.

I said yes!

The sales of the next issue

will show a substantial increase.

Yes.

Throw in a couple of "uh-huhs"

once in a while, will you?

Great Scott!

What are you supposed to be?

I'm supposed to be Eugene Fullstack.

No, I am Eugene Fullstack.

Are you Mr. Murdock?

All right, come on, speak up, boy.

Herbert Baker

Sir Herbert Baker (9 June 1862 – 4 February 1946) was an English architect remembered as the dominant force in South African architecture for two decades, and a major designer of some of New Delhi's most notable government structures. He was born and died at Owletts in Cobham, Kent. Among the many churches, schools and houses he designed in South Africa are the Union Buildings in Pretoria, St. Andrew's College, Grahamstown, St. John's College, Johannesburg, the Wynberg Boys' High School, Groote Schuur in Cape Town, and the Champagne Homestead and Rhodes Cottage on Boschendal, between Franschhoek and Stellenbosch. With Edwin Lutyens he was instrumental in designing, among other buildings, the Rashtrapati Bhavan, Parliament and North and South Blocks of the Secretariat, all in New Delhi, which in 1931 became the capital of the British Raj and later of the Republic of India. He also designed the administration building at the then Prince of Wales School in Nairobi, Kenya now known as Nairobi School. His tomb is in Westminster Abbey. more…
