The Blue Gardenia Page #3

but you wouldn't listen.

You see, Crystal and I live together

and she wasn't home so...

Well, even if you were wrong about

the girl you were right about...

I mean...

I was alone and... I hadn't eaten, so...

I probably shouldn't have come,

it was a silly impulse.

Impulses aren't always silly.

Here, sit down. Please.

Ever see a Polynesian Pearl Diver before?

Not served as a drink!

These aren't really drinks.

They're tradewinds across cool lagoons.

They're The Southern Cross

above coral reefs.

They're a lovely maiden bathing

at the foot of a waterfall.

Ah, that's pretty. Doesn't make much sense,

but it's pretty. Did you make it up?

No, I memorized it.

Do you know what a

Mermaid's Downfall is?

"To achieve a Mermaid's Downfall... "

"we begin with a seductive rum

that insidiously lulls the... "

I think I'll stick to Pearl Divers.

It's good.

It's strong.

Mainly ice and pineapple juice.

Can I get high on one of these?

You want to?

I don't know.

I'm not sure what I want.

I only know one thing, I'd like to forget

the early part of this evening. -Okay.

Tonight begins as of now.

To us.

To us.

Good evening, sir.

Would you like a Blue Gardenia for the

lady? It's a specialty of the house.

Aren't they pretty?

- Oh, they're lovely!

The lady would like one, May.

Oh, it's you Mr Prebble,

nice to hear your voice.

How are you tonight, sir?

- Never better.

Here you are, Miss.

- Thank you so much.

Thank you, Mr Prebble.

'Blue Gardenia'

'Now I'm alone with you'

'And I am oh so blue'

'She has tossed us aside'

'And like you'

'Gardenia'

'Once I was near her heart'

'After the tear drops start'

'Where are teardrops to hide'

Waiter. Two more.

'I lived for an hour'

'What more can I tell'

'Love bloomed like a flower'

'Then the petals fell'

'Blue Gardenia'

'Thrown to a passing breeze'

'But rest in my book'

'Of mem-or-ries'

'I lioved for an hour'

'What more can I tell'

'Love bloomed like a flower'

'Then the petals fell'

'Thrown to a passing breeze'

'But rest in my book'

'Of mem-or-ries'

Not more food!

These were just the appetizers.

The we oughta have

another round of Poly...

Po-ly-ne-sian...

There, I got it!

South Sea Piledrivers!

Waiter, bring us another two, will you?

You know what we oughta do?

We oughta order four more now...

so we wouldn't keep that poor man running

backwards and forwards,

backwards and forwards.

Are you trying to get me drunk?

That's the trouble with you modern men.

You can't hold your liquor.

Even with...

many tradewinds, over lagoons.

Mr prebble.

- Harry.

Mr Harry.

How do you feel?

Like a lovely maiden, bathing at

the foot of the Southern Cross!

Perfect. Wonderful!
