Mmm... and donkey's ears...

Oh, how nice.

You're looking so well.

I wish I felt as well as she looks.

This is er...

Mary.

My dear, you're divine.

I heard on all sides how attractive you were.

Well, I've been waiting for years

to see what I'm really like.

Why ? Americans are so amusing.

What does she mean ?

When I ran a little naughty, they'd always say:

"Oh, you're just like Aunt Hetty.

At my age, I'm really flattered.

You shouldn't be.

How sensible of Philip to marry

a nice healthy girl full of Mmmmmmm!

Zimmm.

Oh, I like that.

You have that Mmmmmm.

I had it too when I was a girl.

I was full of Mmmmmm.

Joie de vivre.

You still have.

Philip, did you hear the nice

compliments Aunt Hetty is paying me ?

What are they ?

She says I have er....

That sounds fine. What does it mean ?

Don't you know what that means ?

That means this.

She's getting pottier and pottier every day.

I beg your pardon, sir.

Every day.

yes, sir.

Look what I found out here, please.

This is Pamela.

Four years old and weighs a ton.

My dear, not a ton.

Why I only weigh a ton and a quarter.

What a nice little bit.

And look. She has mother's twinkle in her eye.

Aunt Hetty, forgive me for rushing away.

Goodbye and good riddance.

I'm going to stay here and talk to your lovely wife.

Aunt Hetty, you will excuse us for a moment, will you ?

What a lovely little girl.

Oh, Bertie, where have you been ?

There are your cigarettes.

Well, don't throw them at me.

What's the matter with you ?

Come on, darling. Daddy has to catch a train.

You pick her up.

Goodbye, my angel girl.

I expect to find you

a whole inch taller when I get back.

You promise me ?

Here, Clark, you better take her.

I've a little tear I don't want her to see.

Oh, Mary, my Mary.

Telephone me sometimes, will you ?

Of course I will.

I shan't be able to tell you any

more than I cn tell you now.

Say it, darling.

I love you, I love you.

Do you ?

Sometimes I wonder if you do.

Darling, how dare you.

Please take care of yourself.

Men.

So they've gone.

How nice it is when people go.

The house seems so quiet.

Oh, Aunt Hetty, I wanted to run across

that square after that car and bring him back again.

A little girl in love.

You're right, darn it.

But why should I be left here all nights ?

Oh, my dear, talking nights...

Have you any wine that's cold ?

I have a little sinky feeling at this time of day.

Have you ? Well I'm sinky too.

What about a bottle

of cold champagne for two little girls ?

That's a marvelous idea.

Bollard, bring some champagne.

Big cocktails, you like cocktails, don't you ?

I adore cocktails. And don't forget

the Angostura and the sherry, Bollard.
