No Man of Her Own

(ALL LAUGHING)

Well, I might as well.

Oh, there she goes.

So, when the bank extended

the $50,000... And you?

I think I'll take

the next three, please.

And...

Oh, be quiet, Uncle.

Give me three good ones.

Well, I'm not particular.

Thanks.

You give me the next two.

Okay.

One for me.

Oh, I think you're a lot of

meanies, not letting me win.

Never mind,

unlucky at cards...

No one loves Mr. Stewart.

It's hereditary.

No woman ever had

anything to do with my father.

A bee kissed a sunflower,

and Mr. Stewart was born.

Can I help you?

I guess I need it.

Look...

And I had my heart all set on winning

$1,000 for a fur jacket with a fox collar.

Oh, we can't

allow that tragedy.

I hate to break it up, but...

Yeah, won't run,

you can't force them.

Last hand, huh?

Beginner's...

(SNEEZES)

God bless you.

Excuse me.

Yeah, well, as I was saying, the

bank extended the $50,000 to us,

even though we showed a

100,000-ton loss on our books.

Well, there's always

the personal angle on a loan.

Oh, when you big businessmen

get together...

Uncle Charlie, I just knew you and

Mr. Morton would take to each other.

Darling, is it my foot

you're trying to caress?

No, ducky, Mr. Morton's foot

and mine have secrets.

Pass.

I'll open without looking.

Well, I'll raise.

I'll stay.

Me, too.

BABE:
I raise.

MORTON:
Come again.

Oh, I haven't a big hand,

but give you a chance,

make it the biggest pot

of the evening.

Once more.

Another stack, please.

That makes eight,

doesn't it?

Exactly.

And still once more.

Oh, I'm going to make this

good for you.

I call.

I only have aces and kings.

Well, that's what I've got.

Aces and kings and 10 next.

Then who wins?

You do, you heartless wretch.

Jack next.

Jack next. Here I had queens full

and he... Has anyone got a gun?

Oh, put that away.

Let's store our chips

back in the middle.

I should say not.

But it was too high a limit,

just a friendly little game.

Here, I'll tell you what. Cut the

cards to see whether I tear them up...

Oh, no.

Oh, no, it's bad luck.

You watch out,

we'll get you next time.

Won't we?

BABE:
I hate to do this.

And I did so want to

bring you luck.

Don't worry. I'm giving you

$1,500 toward that $1,000 coat.

All right, Mary.

Good night, Miss Everly.

Good night.

Good night, dear girl.

Good night, Uncle Charlie.

Good night, Miss Everly. Nice of

you to let your uncle ask us up.

Good night.

Good night.

Great girl, that niece

of yours. Oh, yeah.

Thanks for looking after her

while I was away.

Oh, Mr. Stewart, I expect that order

from you by next Friday. Don't forget.

If you'll promise to play cards with

me again and don't win this back.

CHARLIE:
Did you ever hear

that one about the couple?

So he said, "But honey,

we have to eat sometimes."

(ALL CHUCKLING)

(ALL CHATTERING)

Can I give you a lift,

Mr. Morton?

No, thank you, I'll walk. I

have only a couple of blocks.

How about you, Mr. Stewart?

Going downtown?

No, thanks,

I go the other way.

Mr. Vargas?

Thank you, I walk uptown.

Good night, Mr. Stewart.

Good night, Mr. Morton.

Good night, Mr. Vane. Good

night, Mr. Stewart. Good night.

Good night, Mr. Vargas.

Good night.

Good night, Mr. Vane.

Good night, Mr. Morton.

Good night. Good night.

Good night.

Good night.

Good night, Vargas.

Good night.

Good night.

Oh, there.

Good night, Mr. Vargas.

Good night, Mr. Morton.

Babe.

Well, you fishcake.

Get some tomato sauce for

this guy, will you, Vargas?

And feed him to the cat.

What'd I do now?

Can't even stack

a deck of cards straight.

After being with me for three
