Midnight Mary Page #7

And she's gonna make things

cozy around here.

Now, listen to me. She's a nice girl.

She's coming to work as a stenographer.

She doesn't want any nonsense.

And you and I, my lad,

are gonna keep our hands off.

Uh-huh. Do you know any other ones?

Excuse me.

Right away, Mr. Ledyard.

For Mr. Mannering, Jr. And Mr. Gates.

The report on the Robert's

chancery case.

Put it down. On the desk.

Uh... Take these back to the library,

will you?

- That'll be all, Miss Martin.

- Thank you.

Good night, Mr. Tindle.

Coming over tonight, Hazel?

If Harry wants to.

I have to get a finger wave

before they close.

- Stepping out tonight.

- I'm not stepping farther than the kitchen.

Ma makes Wiener schnitzel

every Thursday night.

- You like Wiener schnitzel, Grace?

Do I? Mm-mm-mm.

Taxi, lady?

You better ride.

I tell you, I'm through.

My life's my own, isn't it?

- I don't owe you a thing.

- That the way you feel about it, Mary?

You could do a lot of harm,

dropping a word at the wrong time.

- It's a mouthpiece you're working for.

- Oh, lay off.

Mary's got sense.

Sure, Mary's on the level, she is.

Oh, shut up, the whole lot of you.

Okay, kid, if that's what you want.

You don't owe us a thing.

You can go whenever you want to.

But remember this,

you'll come back crawling.

And maybe I'll let you in.

- I'll take my chances.

- Oh, honey, don't mind him.

- He's daffy about you.

- Mm-hm. So I noticed.

And to the knowledge of the affiant...

Wait till I find the report.

Mary, I can't stand it any longer.

You're driving me crazy.

Mary, Mary, be kind to me.

The place hasn't been the same

since you came.

I want to explain.

I hope you didn't think that...

- Mary.

- Oh, Tom.

Oh, Tom, I've waited so long.

- Darling.

- Mm.

- File this with the county clerk tomorrow.

- Yes, sir.

Oh, I beg your pardon, sir.

What shall I tell the county clerk, sir?

Tell him the fishing's fine.

Oh, Tom.

Yoo-hoo!

Sam.

Oh, he would.

We ran out of Scotch on a party.

I just came in for some more.

- I'll be going, then.

- Now, don't you worry.

You're not gonna get away from me again.

- We've got things to say, you and I.

- Yoo-hoo!

Come down in five minutes.

You think I didn't know

you were there every minute?

You didn't give any sign of it.

There wasn't a morning I didn't wanna

put three dozen gardenias on your desk.

There wasn't a noon

I didn't wanna take you to lunch.

- All right, let it go.

- I'm serious.

I wasted hours just watching for you

to pass my door.

Scheming for just the slightest look

at you.

I even knew when you'd been in a room.

The same perfume you used that night.

- Mary, what are we going to do?
