Oh yes. The "gulf stream".

Of course, there are

a lot of wiseacres ..

I love raining. Don't you?

Yes, I'm very fond of rain.

Why don't you tell me the gulf stream

was responsible for the Frisco quake?

Last year, it was Central Asia.

Stella Wright said down there,

it rains 20 out of 24 hours every day.

It's getting on her nerves.

I always say to them "if you knew

the first thing about science."

"You'd know what caused the war."

Virginia is a lovely place.

And speaking of cold spells ..

We're not having the

winters we used to have.

I remember back in 1904,

along about March ..

There's Henry. Excuse me, dear.

Do you think New York will

ever be like California?

Oh, it's nice seeing you. We'll have

to get together again some time.

Could you direct me to some food?

I'm hungry.

A sandwich?

No thanks.

A nice party.

Yes. Very.

Isn't it?

Yes.

A sandwich?

No thanks.

You?

Dance?

Beautiful, isn't it?

Yes, very.

It's a lovely bridge, really.

I'd like to say something.

Something ..

I know.

It isn't necessary.

Do you like travelling?

Yes, that's right.

Let's get out of here.

Let's get some fresh air.

I can't .. well, I shouldn't.

Why?

Well, the party has just begun.

Oh, but that's the ideal time to

leave any party. At the beginning.

Alright .. I'll get my coat.

I'll meet you at the elevator.

Alright.

Shall we go?

[ door knocks ]

Did you ring, Miss Prentiss?

Yes, Travis.

If my aunt or Mr Pritcham ask where I am.

Say that I have stepped out for a

moment with Mr Parker. Mr Terry Parker.

Yes, Miss.

Thank you.

There are wiseacres that have convulsions

every time you mention the gulf stream.

I admit the influence of the gulf stream.

But I can't agree with you that it

causes the rain in Central America.

My friend Stella, who lives there, writes

me it rains 20 hours out of 24 each day.

Yes, that's the gulf stream.

I like the sound of your voice.

I want to hear more of it.

Won't you say something nice and long?

30 days hath September, Apwil, June ..

What?

30 days hath September, Apwil, June ..

Apwil?

Apwil?

Hmm .. I see.

Repeat after me, please.

Around the rugged rocks,

the ragged, rascals ran.

Awound the wugged wocks,

the wagged wascals ran.

There, you see.

Now, you know everything,

Yes .. continue please.

30 days hath September.

April .. June and November.

All the rest have 31 except

February which alone has ..

28 and one day more

we add to every four.

Can't we do something nice tomorrow?

Nice?

Couldn't we hire a couple of chairs

and sit in them .. so I can look at you?

Would that be good?

A lovely morning.

No .. looks like rain.

My toes ache.

It says there "Fair and Warmer".
