Bonnie Scotland Page #5

Synopsis: Stan and Ollie stowaway to Scotland expecting to inherit the MacLaurel estate. However Stan's inheritance amounts to a set of bagpipes and a snuff box. The boys are tricked into enlisting in the army and are posted to India where the heiress to the MacLaurel estate has moved to be near her guardian. Her Scottish sweetheart Allan also enlists. The boys are "volunteered" by the Sergeant (Finlayson) to impersonate officers at the palace of Mir Jutra and foil a plot to murder the officers by overturning several beehives.

Aye. You come along with me.

Come along now, you hear?

Do you think they're kidding?

Why, certainly they're kidding.

They're having the time of their lives.

- Well, let's tell them we're wise to them.

- You heard what the man said.

We're in the army.

Well, I didn't know. I thought

we're coming up to get some clothes...

Now, this is the third deed

you've spoilt in a week.

I want to assist you,

but for the last three months...

...you've not been worth your salt.

Oh, l... I know, Mr. Miggs, but I...

l...

That's the postman.

A brisk morning, Mr. Douglas.

- Good morning, Mr. Miggs.

- Good morning.

Wait. Are you sure that's all?

There isn't one for me?

Sorry, lad, but that's all.

Sorry, sir.

- Ollie.

- What?

Do you feel a draft?

After what I've gone through,

nothing matters.

Come in.

Good morning, Mr. Miggs.

- What ye doing? You're all dressed up.

- We're in the army. How do we look?

God save the king.

I wonder if we could ask

a favor of you, Mr. Miggs.

Well, that depends. What is it?

You see, sir, we're leaving town.

And if any mail should come for us...

...will you forward it to that address?

- Well, I might do that.

"Private McLaurel. Private Hardy.

Third Battalion,

Caledonia Highlanders, Pellore...

...Northwest Frontier Province, India."

India.

Well, that's a coincidence.

That's the station commanded

by Colonel McGregor.

If you see Lady Ormsby

or Miss Lorna McLaurel...

...will you give them my regards?

- We certainly will.

- Thank you.

- Goodbye, Mr. Miggs.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye, Alan.

- Goodbye, Mr. Miggs.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye, Ollie.

- Goodbye, Stanley.

Goodbye, Alan.

Well, wait. Wait!

I've found a way out, Mr. Miggs.

Oh, I appreciate everything you've done,

but this means more to me than my life.

- Will you release me?

- I'll not stand in your way, laddie.

- Oh, thank you, sir.

- But where are you going?

- I'm going to Lorna. To India.

- To India?

My, my.

The wonders of youth.

India.

Cool them off slowly.

They've had a run.

- Happy?

- Oh, yes, Greg. The ride was glorious.

- Am I improving?

- I would say you were perfect.

- Oh, Greg, I'm afraid you're prejudiced.

- Right.

Of all the selfish people...

If it means anything to you two,

I've been waiting here for over an hour.

One must admire Vi Ormsby's skill.

She's managed the whole affair.

It's a positive godsend

for Colonel McGregor.

It hasn't been easy

with nothing but his pay.

- Has the girl money?

- Oodles of it, my dear.

Comes into one of the richest estates

in Scotland when she becomes 21.

- The colonel handles it till then.

- Oh, now I understand.

- lf he marries, he'll...

- "lf"? My dear, it's as good as settled.
