00:08 At Morrison's Hotel
00:11 Mr. Knobbs?
00:12 She prefers roses.
00:13 Lilies make her sneeze.
00:14 the service is impeccable.
00:16 What sweet roses, Knobbs.
00:18 Ma'am.
00:18 Such a kind little man.
00:20 The staff
00:21 Now, drinks.
00:23 Albert!
00:23 is outstanding.
00:25 I've been thinking that we need a strong man about the house.
00:28 (Screaming)
00:29 God, but isn't he a smasher?
00:31 You only take advantage of a girl and then leave her high and dry.
00:34 High maybe, but I wouldn't say dry.
00:36 And appearances
00:38 Mr. Hubert Page is working in the morning, and he's come over and asked us for a bed.
00:42 With me, ma'am?
00:43 Yes, Mr. Knobbs. With you.
00:45 are deceiving.
00:47 Jesus.
00:49 You're a woman.
00:51 You won't tell on me.
00:52 What's your name?
00:53 Albert.
00:54 Your real name?
00:56 Albert.
00:59 You don't have to be anything but who you are.
01:02 Look at how you've survived all these years.
01:05 You've worked hard and you've saved your money.
01:07 You've it all stashed under the mattresses of Mr. Knobbs.
01:09 I've been thinking I might purchase a little shop.
01:14 A woman could serve at the counter.
01:16 You're not thinking of taking a wife?
01:18 Who's the lucky lady?
01:19 I was wondering if you would come out for a walk.
01:22 Are you asking me to walk out with you?
01:24 Sure, why not?
01:25 It's always the money I think.
01:27 Would you like to go in?
01:29 All right.
01:30 Why aren't you in fancy dress?
01:33 I'm a waiter.
01:34 I'm a doctor.
01:35 We are both disguised as ourselves.
01:38 He's a freak.
01:39 He has manners at least.
01:41 Well, his manners won't get you to America now, will they?
01:43 We'll make a great success of our shop.
01:46 And our wedding will be a great wonder.
01:48 What kind of man would ask a girl to marry him without ever having kissed her?
01:56 There's something I have to tell you.
01:58 He won't take you to America.
02:00 He'll leave you here.
02:01 I'll take care of you.
02:02 Why don't you say to me what you're saying to her?
02:04 Stop, Joe!
02:05 I think you are the strangest man I've ever met.
02:20 Sleep now, la la la la la.
