They go on a Mediterranean honeymoon, where he soon finds the affects of his own beauty regulations are more than he can handle.

Please, ladies!

Please now, ladies,

Dr. Lamar is a friend of mine,

if you'll just give me

a chance to explain, I...

What's this?

We found this man

molesting the patients.

Why, I wasn't

molesting anybody.

I was looking for you,

Maurice.

Why, Max! Is that you?

Max, I haven't seen you in years.

What are you doing with those on?

Why, I had to see you,

and they told me that this was

the only way I could get in.

Oh. Well, come on, sit down.

Tell me about yourself.

Remember when we were going to

set the world on fire

- with our scientific discoveries?

- Yes.

Say, Max, whatever happened to that serum

you were working on last time I saw you?

That's what I came

to see you about.

Another two months

and victory will be mine.

Of course

in the meantime, I...

In the meantime, you want me

to lend you some money.

Yes. Will you?

I will not!

Max, you've got to stop wasting

your life on a lot of guinea pigs.

I've got something better

for you to work on.

- What?

- Women.

Women?

Yes, yes, you've heard

of them, haven't you?

I want you to move in here

and work with me.

Thanks, Maurice,

but I'm afraid I can't.

Why not? In the old days

we always planned to work together.

I know, but

that was to be

scientific.

Oh, and this isn't,

I suppose.

Let me tell you, the work I'm doing today

is just as important as the work I did

after I graduated

from medical school.

Don't you realize that ugliness is

a disease, and that in curing it,

I'm bringing beauty and joy

into hundreds of lives?

- Oh, Doctor.

- Yes?

That new patient

is prepared.

Right. Come on, Max.

- Me?

- Yes, you.

Ah, Madame Severac?

Yes.

I'm Dr. Lamar and

this is Dr. Pascal.

Now, my dear, just relax.

Just relax.

Now, what can I

do for you?

I want to be beautiful.

I see.

This will have to

be lifted.

Yes, Doctor.

This will have

to be lifted.

Yes, Doctor.

Yes, Doctor.

Did you make

a mask of madame?

Oh, yes, Doctor.

Now, what do you wish

to look like, madame?

Why, just beautiful.

MAURICE:
I see.

Like this, perhaps?

There!

You mean I can

look like that?

Yes, indeed,

Madame Severac.

Your first treatment

will be Tuesday at 4:30.

My secretary will speak

to you about the fee.

In the meantime, have no fears.

You shall be beautiful.

Oh, thank you, Doctor.

Thank you so much.

Don't mention it. I shall see you

on Tuesday. Come, Max.

Well, what do you say now?

Isn't she more beautiful already?

She certainly seemed to be.

Is she going to get her

husband back, or isn't she?

You saw the tragic state

she was in.

I'll make her

the happiest woman in the world.

Once more, Max,

a doctor has saved a life.
