Hello.
Ha, ha, ha. Is that marvelous?
Never told him what to say. Smart as a whip.
Just made it up like that.
A trigger-mind, that's what he is.
A trigger-mind.
Hi kiddies. Hey, can I have a dance?
Who? With me? Hoooooo!
No, not you.
I mean you, baby.
Wait a minute, buddy. This is my party,
and this is my sweetheart.
Hi, hon..
Wait a minute, son. I don't want
to appear too tolerant.
Or even too convalescence.
But I'm not going to stand here and
have you tolerate me.
And I'm the guy that can do it.
Now scram!
Aw, now listen, Itsy-Bitsy.
Itsy-Bitsy?
Will you wait a minute?
All I want to do is dance with the dame.
Dame?
Are you going to let him get away with that?
Who me?
Yeah, you.
Not me. Hoo haa.
You, Gus O. Take him!
Do something. And don't say "hello".
Denzil, get the boys. Peggy, come on.
Come on boys, everybody, take him. Take him.
Gracie!
I beg your pardon, Miss. Is there
anything wrong?
Yes, plenty.
Well, I saw that fight start in the dance-hall,
and I saw that you were mixed up in it.
I wondered if you were hurt?
No, I'm not hurt.
But someone stole every cent of
money I had.
I wouldn't go back into there if I
were you. It's turned into a riot.
Yes, I know, but I've got to
find my money.
I haven't a cent and I've got to get home.
Well, that's okay. I'll be glad to help you.
There's my car.
Oh, well I..
That's awfully nice of you,
but I couldn't do that.
You see, I don't know you.
Well, that makes us even. I don't
know you either.
I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll get the
cop on the corner to introduce us.
Well, uh.
Well, really, would you be nice enough
to drive me home?
Why, of course. That's what I've
been trying to tell you.
Alright.
Fourteen, red.
Fourteen, red.
Place your bets ladies and gentlemen.

Good evening Lulu.
Good evening Mr. Copely.
Is Grandma home?
Yes, sir. She's home.
Hello, Grandma.
Hello Jimmy!
Well, how's tricks?
Now, grandma, I want you to meet
the future Mrs. Copely.
Oh really, you.. you mustn't believe that.
Well, deary, pleased to meet you anyhow.
You see, was driving Miss Neal home
and happened to be passing by your place.
So, I thought we'd drop in for
a little while.
Well, that is nice of you Jimmy.
Suppose you take the little lady
into the parlor.
Thanks Grandma.
I'll join you immediately, deary.
You run along with Jimmy.
Well, uh. Make yourself comfortable.
Have a seat.
Thank you.
Hmm.
Cigarette?
No thanks. I don't smoke.
Okay, Lulu.
Okay.
[Pop!]
I don't think I should have come here.
I want you to take me home now.
Oh, don't be like that.
The evening's still young.
