Well, you haven't

Gone yet.

I should say not.

And until the very

Last second,

I'm going to make believe

That you're never going-

Never.

Love me?

Supposing you

Find out for yourself.

Oh, chaperon!

What's wrong?

Keep back.

It's too hot.

What I know

About you!

Stop your nonsense,

Steve.

I die, horatio.

Idiot, behave.

What is all this

Rumpus about, anyhow?

Never mind him.

I wish you'd all

Run along without me.

We won't hear of it.

Andrew is going to be

Frightfully tired when he gets in,

And he's not very keen

About parties anyway.

My husband and I

Live so quietly.

Find it satisfactory?

Cynical?

No, indeed. Curious.

Been married very long?

He's making notes

On american customs.

Why is a rapid marriage

Always funny?

Goodness. Isn't there anything else

In the world to discuss but matrimony?

After all, it's our

First, largest industry.

Wrong.

It's the second.

What's

The first?

Divorce. I'll leave this in

Case uncle andrew comes in.

Come on. You two can finish

Your fight in the taxi.

I'll be in your corner, aunt celia.

You'll be

In mine?

I'm just

An innocent bystander.

And it's the innocent bystander

That always gets shot in the leg.

do you love me?

That I know

much obliged, celia

Take it from me,

Aunt celia,

We serious women have too

Much competition in new york.

If I ever

Have a husband,

Believe me, I'll keep

Him in oshkosh or boston-

Or toledo?

Shh. Everybody, please. He

Said it before witnesses.

Ah, a proposal.

Congratulations.

Marvelous work.

Harry, this is

So sudden.

Oh...

There you are. You see, marriage

Isn't to be taken seriously.

Lisbeth.

Oh, I'm swiss.

I'm neutral.

Marriage without love

Of course is nothing.

Pshaw. Love and marriage

Mean internal combustion.

Don't you

Believe it.

Marriage and love

Are not enemies.

A woman doesn't know

How to be in love

Until she's been married

10 years. The most-

Well.

Excuse me. My wife

- last week, she vamoose with a taxi driver.

Excuse.

Apparently

I'm the only-

Uncle andrew.

Where?

Over there.

Daddy played big football

When he was at dartmouth.

Oh, I'll bet daddy

Just knocked 'em dead.

Daddy was

Some tackler.

Daddy will

Tackle anything.

Wait a minute,

Steve.

Hold everything.

He still

Knocks them dead.

Don't he, daddy?

Mr. Corbin?

Yes, I'm the fella.

Your wife's here.

My wife?

I'll have to

Leave you.

Like fun,

You will!

I'll see you tomorrow.

But this is

Class reunion.

Shh.

Where is she?

She hasn't seen

You yet. Better move fast.

Who are you? What do you get out of it?

Mine was the class

Of '24.

You're a squirt. I'll give

You a punch in the nose!

Sit down, old man. Go on.
