Genevieve Page #4

Synopsis: It's time for the annual London to Brighton antique car rally, and Alan McKim and Ambrose Claverhouse are not going to let their friendship stop them from trying to humiliate each other. Along the way, some old jealousies are kindled to the point where the two men decide to have a "friendly" wager on who will be the first back to London. Once the competitive juices get all fired up, however, it quickly becomes a nasty, hotly-contested affair. Ambrose's companion must suffer through her "maiden voyage" on the rally, while Mrs. McKim, on the other hand, is a long-time sufferer of her husband's obsession.

eat anything except ravioli.

Isn't that strange!

- Not too cold, are you darling?

- No, I'm fine.

I don't think it'll

rain, anyway.

I must say. Considering how

little time I had to work on her

The old girl's

really behaving herself.

You should never

say a thing like that.

Nothing important.

It won't take a minute.

- Want some coffee?

- No thanks. Not now.

- Having trouble?

- We shall be all right, thank you.

- All right for petrol?

- Yes, quite.

Better try a new fling.

Modern car owner

for you. Typical.

I thought that

was very funny!

- Didn't you think it was funny?

- No I didn't.

- Oh, darling, it's not even 10:30.

- What do you mean?

You can't lose your temper now.

If you lose your temper now. What on

earth are you going to be like by evening.

Wendy!

Oh, my golly.

It's all gone through my skirt!

Do something!

Why don't you do something!

Give me a towel. Quick.

- Here's another one?

Stop beside him.

Hurry up!

Hurry up!

Oh, I'll have to change

absolutely everything.

Come on. Come on.

Come on. Darling.

Oh, you are clumsy.

It's all your fault.

Why couldn't you be

more careful?

It's ruined the dress.

Wendy I'm terribly sorry.

I didn't know you were

pouring the coffee.

- Otherwise I wouldn't of

threatend to start her. - Alan.

Darling.

Now look here my friend.

We don't want any...

Very nice.

Thank you very much.

Hold on there!

What's the matter, chum? Don't you

want to see yourself on the film?

Take your Mrs. To the local.

She'll love it.

Wendy. Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

Darling, I'm terribly sorry.

Are you soaking?

- Is there anything I can do?

- Yes.

Put these in the car.

Here, and this too.

Hello, McKim.

Hello love.

I'm sorry, darling.

It was my fault, the whole thing.

Never mind. It's not

as bad as all that.

Come on. Let's go.

You know I wouldn't blame you,

if you said you wanted to turn back.

Well I don't.

Are you sure?

Are you sure you're not just saying that.

Look, I don't want you to go on with

this just because you think I'd be hurt.

I'm perfectly willing

to go home.

I mean it.

- We'd get back in time for Tania's party.

- Oh, come off it, Alan.

- But I mean it.

- You don't mean it a'tall.

You know as well as I do we shall be

in Brighton tonight dead or alive.

- But you want to go on?

- I've said I want to go on.

- I know, but if you did want to go home.

- All right.

All right, what?

- Let's go home.

- Uh?

I want to go home.

- Do you mean it?

- Of course I mean it!

Darling, you are serious, aren't you?

- You're not just...

- Oh, for heaven's sake, Alan.

You know perfectly well

we're going to Brighton.

Are we gonna sit here
