It will if you keep on loving me.

- You know what I mean.

- I don't know what you mean.

I only know

that I'm not gonna let you go.

You're right.

Of course you're right.

I'll talk to him again tonight,

but it'll have to be tonight.

Please understand, Jeff,

and get my coat.

I'll call you later.

Don't come with me to the door.

Here you are, sir.

- These things are like water.

- They creep up on you.

- Bring me a couple more.

- But, sir, you have four.

We are only allowed

two to a customer.

Why?

That drink makes a guy talk back

to his mother-in-law.

- What about his father-in-law?

- I suppose so.

You've given me an idea.

- Nice place, huh?

- Are you all right, fella?

The doctor's as well

as could be expected.

- Keep the change.

- Thank you.

Hello, kitty.

Remember me?

Jeff.

Why did you come here?

This week, madam, we offer one red rose

with each year's subscription...

...to the medical journal.

- Oh, no. Please, you've got to go.

Well, my dear...

...I see you have company.

Come in, sir.

Come in.

Any friend of Margo's is welcome.

- Thank you. I must apologize...

- Jeff...

...please leave.

I'm afraid we haven't a servant

in the house.

I let them all go for the weekend.

Did Margo tell you

that we're flying East tonight?

- That's why I'm here.

- Indeed.

We're to have the pleasure

of your company?

No. I don't know how to say this...

...and I hope you understand...

...but you're not going to have the pleasure

of your daughter's company either.

We'll explore that remark

over a drink. Come along.

Won't you sit down?

- Thank you.

Highball?

Or won't that mix

with what you've had?

- That'll be fine, thanks.

- Jeff, please leave.

Don't be so inhospitable, my dear.

And where did you two meet?

At the drugstore tonight?

Oh, no.

We've been seeing each other

every night.

Seeing each other every night?

Lovely.

So you must be the young man.

Mr. Lannington, there's no sense

beating around the bush.

- I'm in love with your daughter.

- That's quite apparent.

Can't you see he's had

too much to drink?

Yes, I can see it.

And is Margo in love with you?

Well, hasn't she told you?

As a matter of fact, she has, yes.

Well, that's quite...

...romantic, Mister...

- Doctor.

- Dr. Cameron.

- Not a psychiatrist?

- No.

No.

And, uh...

...not a very substantial practice,

as yet?

Well, I think we can manage

to get along without any help from you...

...if that's what you mean.

- It is what I mean.

- Jeff, I...

- Be quiet, Margo.

Do you mind being not quite

so demonstrative in my presence?

So you're quite sure of your feelings.

I mean, you know,

people sometimes get...

...carried away.
