00:03:53 [applause]
00:03:57 Beautiful, beautiful.
00:03:59 That performance touched my heart.
00:04:01 I, for one, will contribute a dollar.
00:04:05 Gentlemen, here.
00:04:08 That's mine.
00:04:10 Thank you.
00:04:11 Thank you.
00:04:13 Thank you.
00:04:14 Thank you.
00:04:15 Come on.
00:04:16 Go home.
00:04:18 [music playing]
00:04:22 Help!
00:04:23 Help!
00:04:24 Help, I've been robbed!
00:04:25 I've been robbed!
00:04:26 Help!
00:04:27 I've been robbed!
00:04:28 Help!
00:04:29 The professor's at it again.
00:04:30 Come on, fellas.
00:04:31 We gotta meet the professor.
00:04:32 Not me.
00:04:33 The rescue kids can wind up in jail, but not me.
00:04:36 We're not going to jail.
00:04:38 We're going to Washington Square.
00:04:40 What's the matter?
00:04:41 What's up?
00:04:42 It's the professor.
00:04:43 He's picked a pocket again.
00:04:44 You take that back.
00:04:45 You can't inflict on my grandfather like that.
00:04:47 Take it back.
00:04:48 All right.
00:04:50 You don't think the professor would take anything that
00:04:52 didn't belong to him, do you?
00:04:53 That's just the trouble with the professor.
00:04:55 He don't seem to know what belongs to him and what doesn't.
00:04:58 The professor's one of the honestest men in the world.
00:05:01 And besides, he's reformed.
00:05:04 Ah, my pupils.
00:05:07 Professor!
00:05:08 Hey, what is it, my little tuberose?
00:05:12 Tell them you didn't take anything from that man.
00:05:15 What do you mean, steal?
00:05:16 Why, who suggested such a thing?
00:05:18 We did.
00:05:19 Oh, you did.
00:05:20 Well, now I ask you, is this gratitude after all
00:05:23 I've done for you boys?
00:05:25 I'm ashamed of you.
00:05:26 You see?
00:05:27 Yes.
00:05:28 As a matter of fact, I just learned of a big party
00:05:30 uptown where if we hurry, we can pick up a penny or two
00:05:33 playing for the guests.
00:05:34 Come along.
00:05:35 Come on.
00:05:43 Well, maybe he is honest.
00:05:45 But if it happens again--
00:05:47 [chatter]
00:05:50 Come on, boys.
00:05:54 Sit down.
00:05:55 Skinny, will you please sit over here?
00:05:58 Cunning, aren't they?
00:06:05 Especially that little one.
00:06:06 Pick off your hats.
00:06:07 Can't you see you're in a swell house?
00:06:09 Wouldn't it be amusing to have them play
00:06:11 at our wedding reception?
00:06:14 We could dress them up and--
00:06:17 Ellen, you're not listening.
00:06:19 Huh?
00:06:20 Oh, our wedding.
00:06:21 Yes.
00:06:22 Yes, of course.
00:06:25 Ellen.
00:06:27 What?
00:06:29 Never mind.
00:06:32 Come on, boys.
00:06:33 Tune up.
00:06:35 Stop sniffing like that.
00:06:37 Here, use this.
00:06:41 I think they have thoroughly disproved of it.
00:06:45 Stop mumbling, Jasper.
00:06:47 Well, I can't understand your nephew bringing
00:06:49 these filthy little street Arabs in here.
00:06:51 And they'd steal your hoops if they
00:06:53 could get their hands on them.
00:06:54 Oh, thank you not to get personal, Jasper.

00:09:30 - We've been robbed.
00:09:32 All our furs, everything.
00:09:34 A burglar's been in and stolen everything.
00:09:36 - What did I tell you?
00:09:37 He's done it again.
00:09:38 - He did not.
00:09:39 - I knew he did.
00:09:40 - Well, just the same I'm through.
00:09:41 Come on, let's get out of here.
00:09:42 - He did not.
00:09:43 - He did not.
00:09:44 (men shouting)
00:09:47 (men shouting)
00:09:49 - Uncle!
00:10:00 - Somebody broke in the window.
00:10:01 - What?
00:10:02 - I hadn't any doubt
00:10:03 but what these ragamuffins are part of the scheme,
00:10:05 sent here to divert our attention from the thief.
00:10:07 - Will you stop mumbling?
00:10:08 - They've caught one of them.
00:10:10 (children chattering)
00:10:14 - We caught this one stuck in the balustrade.
00:10:16 - I trust you weren't injured in the struggle.
00:10:19 - Why no, ma'am, not a scratch.
00:10:20 - Come here, dear, don't be afraid.
00:10:23 You and Jasper take these gallant officers upstairs
00:10:26 and get a description of the things that were taken.
00:10:28 Give my apologies to my guests
00:10:29 and assure them I will replace everything.
00:10:32 - But doesn't this one go to jail?
00:10:33 - Don't be an idiot.
00:10:35 Come here.
00:10:35 - I didn't do anything.
00:10:41 Of course I didn't.
00:10:42 I'm too little.
00:10:44 - Are you?
00:10:45 - Yes, I am.
00:10:46 - Well, I'm glad you're here.
00:10:48 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:49 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:50 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:50 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:51 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:52 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:53 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:54 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:55 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:55 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:56 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:57 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:58 - I'm glad you're here.
00:10:59 - I'm glad you're here.
00:11:00 - I'm glad you're here.
00:11:00 - I'm glad you're here.
00:11:01 - I'm glad you're here.
00:11:02 - I'm glad you're here.
00:11:03 - I'm glad you're here.
00:11:04 - I'm glad you're here.
00:11:05 - An aristocrat.
00:11:06 - Oh.
00:11:06 - Is that cake?
00:11:11 - Who'd you find out?
00:11:12 Help yourself, my dear.
00:11:14 - Hey, Professor!
00:11:16 Wait a minute!
00:11:18 - What is it?
00:11:18 - Professor, they got her!
00:11:19 The police, they got her!
00:11:20 - They got, they got dimples?
00:11:22 - Yes, sir!
00:11:23 - Oh.
00:11:23 (stammering)
00:11:26 - You see, the professor's awful strict with the students.
00:11:34 He watches them very close so they won't do nothing bad.
00:11:38 And he scolds them if they're naughty.
00:11:40 - But singing and playing in the street,
00:11:42 isn't it rather odd for a music teacher to permit that?
00:11:46 - Ah, that's just practice.
00:11:48 If they practice at home,
00:11:49 the neighbors throw bottles through the window.
00:11:52 (laughing)
00:11:54 - Let's do like this, chocolate or vanilla?
00:12:02 - I like chocolate and vanilla.
00:12:04 (gentle music)
00:12:33 - I wish the professor was here.
00:12:35 He likes vanilla cake.
00:12:36 - Help, stop thief!
00:12:38 Help, stop thief!
00:12:40 (groaning)
00:12:46 - Oh, he got away.
00:12:48 The thief got away.
00:12:49 - Are you hurt, sir?
00:12:50 - Well, he was a big fellow.
00:12:52 Too big for me.
00:12:53 I'm not as young as I once was.
00:12:56 - What's going on down there?
00:12:58 - This gentleman almost caught the thief.
00:12:59 Looks like he got nearly everything back.
00:13:01 - Wonderful!
00:13:02 Won't you come in, sir?
00:13:03 I'd like to see you.
00:13:04 - Oh, thank you, madam.
00:13:06 I'd be delighted.
00:13:08 But I did no more than my duty as a citizen.
00:13:13 (coughing)
00:13:16 Not unlike the home of my childhood.
00:13:20 Timples, my darling, you're all right?
00:13:23 - I knew you'd come.
00:13:24 (laughing)
00:13:26 It's the professor.
00:13:27 - Ah, delighted.
00:13:28 - You see, if anything's been stolen,
00:13:30 I'll always send for the professor.
00:13:32 And generally, you can get it back.
00:13:34 (laughing)
00:13:36 - Well, I wouldn't go as far as to say that.
00:13:38 - You've rendered me a valuable service, sir.
00:13:40 I can't thank you enough.
00:13:42 - Oh, madam.
00:13:43 I was passing in front of your cottage
00:13:48 when the culprit emerged from the bushes.
00:13:51 I seized him and grappled with him,
00:13:52 but he was young and I'm not the Eustace Appleby
00:13:56 that I was when I stroked the ale crude victory.
00:13:59 - If it wouldn't embarrass you,
00:14:01 I'd like you to accept a little something.
00:14:03 - Oh, no, no, no, madam.
00:14:04 Thank you not for me.
00:14:06 Any American would have done the same.
00:14:08 But of course, if you'd like to remember the child
00:14:13 with a little something.
00:14:14 - Oh, no.
00:14:15 - No, just a little souvenir.
00:14:18 $100 or perhaps 75.
00:14:23 - Is there anything you'd especially like, dear?
00:14:26 - Well, there is one thing.
00:14:28 - Yes.
00:14:29 - What is it, dear?
00:14:31 - It's not too much.
00:14:32 I'd like another little piece of that chocolate cake.
00:14:35 - Of course, child.
00:14:37 - Oh, dear.
00:14:38 How big a piece do you want?
00:14:40 A big piece or a real big piece?
00:14:41 - Give her all the cake and some of the cookies.
00:14:44 (whistling)
00:14:46 Here you are, dear.
00:14:51 - Now tell me, where do you live?
00:14:54 - In the rookery in Cherry Street.
00:14:57 - In the rookery?
00:14:58 - Oh.
00:14:59 - Just sort of camping out, the depression, you know.
00:15:02 - Oh, yes.
00:15:03 (laughing)
00:15:04 Good night, my dear.
00:15:05 Will you come and see me again soon?
00:15:07 - Yes, ma'am.
00:15:07 I'd like to.
00:15:09 You always have chocolate cake?
00:15:11 - I will, whenever you come and see me.
00:15:13 - (laughing)
00:15:14 Well, come, my little rosebud.
00:15:15 It's past our bedtime, you know.
00:15:17 (laughing)
00:15:18 Au revoir.
00:15:29 (door creaking)
00:15:31 - Cicero!
00:15:53 - Yes, yes, mister.
00:15:55 - Yes, I wasn't sleeping.
00:15:56 I was just resting my eyes.
00:15:59 - Yes, well, this is hardly what a gentleman expects
00:16:01 of a gentleman's gentleman.
00:16:03 A fine way you choose to welcome your master home
00:16:06 after the day's commerce.
00:16:08 There should be a blazing fire, a hot punch.
00:16:11 - Sure would be nice, but--
00:16:14 - I, for years, I was never without my nightcap.
00:16:18 - I never noticed you had, but the one cap, mister--
00:16:21 - I have put up with your perpetual unconsciousness.
00:16:24 I've overlooked your careless treatment of my establishment,
00:16:27 but no one can remain on my domestic staff
00:16:30 and speak slightingly of the Appleby wardrobe.
00:16:33 I am known as the beau of Cherry Street.
00:16:36 As for you, Cicero, I have come to the conclusion
00:16:40 that this apartment is not big enough for both of us.
00:16:43 - Well, maybe we could get a big apartment--
00:16:47 - Out of my sight!
00:16:48 You're fired!
00:16:49 - Poor room, my father's apartment.
00:16:52 If there's nothing I can do about it--
00:16:54 - Nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing, Cicero.
00:16:56 Our paths part.
00:16:58 - No, now, what time you want me to be back in the morning?
00:17:02 - Oh, I should say 7.45, Cicero, as usual.
00:17:06 - Yes, I suppose you'll find your cap.
00:17:11 - Professor?
00:17:17 - Hey, what is it, my little apple cheeks?
00:17:20 - Why did you take that clock?
00:17:23 - What clock would that be, my sweet?
00:17:26 I remember no clock.
00:17:29 - When you put your hat over it, I saw you.
00:17:31 - Why, of course not.
00:17:33 You ought to know that I wouldn't take
00:17:35 a small clock like that.
00:17:37 I mean, I wouldn't take any clock, large or small.
00:17:41 After all, my dear child, I'm a musician, not a thief.
00:17:45 (clock beeping)
00:17:48 (clock beeping)
00:17:51 All right, Professor.
00:18:00 - All I can say is that this is a coincidence
00:18:12 that leaves me embarrassed and nonplussed.
00:18:16 I wouldn't convict a dog on circumstantial evidence,
00:18:20 and yet it's as broad as it is long.
00:18:24 I admit that now and then I'm tempted
00:18:27 to pick up some small article that doesn't belong to me,
00:18:31 but on the other hand, I'm just as likely
00:18:34 to leave something behind that's mine.
00:18:37 I didn't leave my hat at Mrs. Drew's, did I?
00:18:40 I've...
00:18:42 Oh, no, I...
00:18:43 Yes, I...
00:18:44 Would you like me to give you a bird call or two?
00:18:53 Maybe the whipperwill at twilight
00:18:55 will help you to go to sleep?
00:18:58 - No.
00:18:58 (gentle music)
00:19:26 - My child, back so soon, so early.
00:19:29 - I brought it back.
00:19:30 - Brought what back?
00:19:32 - The cuckoo clock.
00:19:34 - Why?
00:19:35 What on earth are you doing with this?
00:19:38 - I, I...
00:19:39 Well, I stole it last night.
00:19:43 - Well?
00:19:45 - It's a funny thing about me.
00:19:47 I'm so wicked.
00:19:49 Isn't it awful?
00:19:50 - You stole this?
00:19:52 - Right under your very nose.
00:19:55 I really don't know what's to become of me.
00:19:57 I'm so bad.
00:19:59 Professor says he doesn't know.
00:20:01 He says I'm gonna wind up in the pinch of tantry,
00:20:04 if not in jail.
00:20:05 - Are you sure someone else didn't take this?
00:20:08 - Oh, goodness.
00:20:10 You don't mean the professor, do you?
00:20:12 He wouldn't take it.
00:20:14 He's too honest.
00:20:15 He made me bring it back.
00:20:17 Are you, are you going to have me arrested?
00:20:25 - Well, I really believe I should.
00:20:28 But I don't imagine you're a very hardened criminal.
00:20:31 (knocking)
00:20:32 Come in.
00:20:33 - Colonel Loring, Miss Betty, to see you, ma'am.
00:20:38 - The Loring?
00:20:38 - Yes, ma'am.
00:20:40 And the Colonel is raving some awful Mrs. Drew.
00:20:43 - Well, don't stand there, Rufus.
00:20:45 - Yes, ma'am.
00:20:46 - Tell him I'll be right down.
00:20:47 - Yes, ma'am.
00:20:48 - Thank you.
00:20:49 You wait here, darling.
00:20:55 I want to talk to you.
00:20:57 (Betty humming)
00:21:03 (Betty humming)
00:21:05 (door opening)
00:21:08 (door closing)
00:21:11 - Well, if it isn't Miss, uh, Miss--
00:21:37 - Applebee.
00:21:38 Sylvia Delores Applebee.
00:21:40 They call me Dibble.
00:21:41 (cuckoo clock chirping)
00:21:44 - You like that cuckoo?
00:21:49 - Us Applebees know all about birds.
00:21:51 Someday I'll have the professor come over
00:21:53 and do some cuckoo calls for you.
00:21:55 He can cuckoo even better than a cuckoo can cuckoo.
00:21:58 - Hmm, quite a talented family.
00:22:00 - Oh, yes.
00:22:01 We Applebees are very talented.
00:22:04 - Why, the professor used to be
00:22:05 the best actor in the world, he says.
00:22:08 - I suppose you want to go on the stage too.
00:22:11 - Someday I'm going to.
00:22:12 I'm gonna play Macbeth, just like the professor did.
00:22:15 - Wouldn't you like to play a younger part?
00:22:18 Say, a little girl like yourself?
00:22:21 - Well, maybe.
00:22:23 Just to begin with.
00:22:25 - I'll tell you what to do.
00:22:26 You have your grandfather take you to the National Theater
00:22:28 to see a friend of mine.
00:22:30 Beautiful young lady.
00:22:32 Here.
00:22:34 I'll write her name down for you.
00:22:36 - Is she an actress?
00:22:42 - Yes.
00:22:43 - Are you in love with her?
00:22:49 - Why, I...
00:22:51 - I beg your pardon, sir.
00:22:52 Your aunt, she wants to see you.
00:22:54 - Thank you, Rufus.
00:22:56 - Well, come along, Dipples.
00:22:58 - Your aunt told me to wait here.
00:23:02 - Alan, maybe you can explain.
00:23:04 - Explain what, Aunt Caroline?
00:23:06 - I want to break our engagement, Alan.
00:23:08 - Oh?
00:23:09 - Is that all you can say?
00:23:11 - I'm sorry it had to happen this way,
00:23:12 but I think Betty is right.
00:23:14 It would be the best thing for both of us.
00:23:17 - But why?
00:23:23 I don't understand.
00:23:25 - You see, Aunt Caroline--
00:23:26 - I'll tell you why.
00:23:27 It's common gossip that Alan has become involved
00:23:29 with an actress that he spends most of his time
00:23:31 with these low people of the theater.
00:23:33 Why, he's even talking about putting up money
00:23:35 to produce a play for this creature.
00:23:39 I regret that I had to tell you this, Caroline,
00:23:41 but it's time you knew.
00:23:43 - Alan, it isn't true.
00:23:58 It isn't true what he said about the actress, is it?
00:24:01 - I'm afraid it is, Aunt Caroline.
00:24:04 - Of all things, an actress.
00:24:06 Alan, how could you?
00:24:08 You know how I hate the theater
00:24:10 and all that it stands for.
00:24:12 - I love her, and we're going to be married.
00:24:14 - Married?
00:24:15 Alan, you can't do it.
00:24:16 I don't let you ruin your life.
00:24:17 - My mind is made up, Aunt Caroline.
00:24:19 - You're an ungrateful, disobedient, shameless boy.
00:24:23 And as long as you stay in my house,
00:24:25 I must insist that you observe my wishes.
00:24:28 - In that case, I'll have to look for another place to stay.
00:24:31 - Alan.
00:24:32 - I'm sorry, Aunt Caroline.
00:24:36 I'd hoped you'd understand.
00:24:38 - If you leave this house,
00:24:44 you need never expect to come back to it,
00:24:48 as long as I live.
00:24:49 - I'll get my things.
00:24:54 (birds chirping)
00:24:57 - Charles, are you hurt?
00:25:04 - I don't think so.
00:25:07 Nope, I feel deadly.
00:25:09 - Oh, you frightened me.
00:25:11 - Well, that was nothing.
00:25:14 Once I fell off the roof of McGuire Saloon.
00:25:17 - Good heavens, were you hurt?
00:25:19 - Nope, I fell on Mrs. O'Casey.
00:25:21 - Mrs. O'Casey? - Yes.
00:25:23 She's fat and very soft.
00:25:25 Once I was leaning out of a she-loft
00:25:29 and Skinny waved to me and...
00:25:31 - What?
00:25:42 You're crying.
00:25:43 - No, Charles.
00:25:44 - Is it because he's going away?
00:25:48 - Yes.
00:25:50 I'm going to miss him.
00:25:52 He was all I had.
00:25:54 Now he's leaving.
00:25:56 - Sometime I wonder if men are worth
00:26:01 all the trouble they give us.
00:26:03 (upbeat music)
00:26:07 (children shouting)
00:26:10 - Hello, Mrs. O'Casey.
00:26:15 - Hello, hello, dear friend.
00:26:17 - How are you, Mrs. O'Casey?
00:26:19 How's Mr. O'Casey?
00:26:21 - Mrs. O'Casey?
00:26:23 She's the lady I fell on.
00:26:25 - Hello, Skinny.
00:26:29 - Hello, Jimbo.
00:26:31 - He's not really Skinny.
00:26:33 We just call him that.
00:26:35 - Won't you sit down, Mrs. Drew?
00:26:37 - Thank you.
00:26:38 - Cicero, Cicero.
00:26:40 - Yes, sir.
00:26:41 - There you are.
00:26:42 A little tea for Mrs. Drew.
00:26:44 Just spread the table.
00:26:45 You can pour.
00:26:46 - Pour what?
00:26:47 Mr. McFadden, no, no, no thank you.
00:26:49 - Oh, you're quite sure?
00:26:51 Well, then, Cicero, you can get on with your marketing.
00:26:54 - Marketing?
00:26:55 - Let me see.
00:26:56 I think I'd relish a nice filet for dinner.
00:26:59 - We never cook.
00:27:00 - Cooked in your own inimitable way, Cicero.
00:27:02 - Ma'am, we have to keep talking.
00:27:03 - Yes, sir, sir.
00:27:04 - We don't trust him.
00:27:06 - Yes, there's a certain quiet splendor
00:27:09 about the aboriginal servant, Mrs. Drew.
00:27:11 - Which, unfortunately, is not always
00:27:13 shared by their masters.
00:27:15 - Chevere.
00:27:17 - Professor, your granddaughter is a remarkable child.
00:27:21 An appealing child.
00:27:23 As briefly as I've known her, I've become very fond of her.
00:27:27 - Yes, that's easy to see, Mrs. Drew,
00:27:29 and quite easy to understand, too.
00:27:32 - In fact, I'm so fond of her that I want
00:27:34 to propose something to you, something for her good.
00:27:38 I'm going to ask you to let her come and live with me
00:27:41 and let me do all that I can for her.
00:27:44 - You mean that I-- I should give dimples up?
00:27:48 - This sort of life isn't what a child should have.
00:27:52 You understand that.
00:27:53 For all your love and devotion, you aren't helping dimples.
00:27:57 You're hurting her.
00:27:58 You may even ruin her whole life.
00:28:02 - But I-- I-- I-- I love dimples.
00:28:07 - I know that.
00:28:08 That's why I'm asking it of you.
00:28:10 It wouldn't mean a complete separation.
00:28:13 You could come and see her whenever you wished.
00:28:15 Perhaps I could help you, too.
00:28:18 - Huh?
00:28:19 - Perhaps I might ease your life,
00:28:21 provide you with a sum of money, say $5,000.
00:28:26 - $5,000 for dimples?
00:28:28 - $5,000, if you let her come and live with me.
00:28:32 - Oh.
00:28:33 [coughs]
00:28:34 - I must run along, Professor.
00:28:36 You give a lot of thought to what I've said.
00:28:38 I'm sure you'll agree with me.
00:28:41 Goodbye, darling.
00:28:42 I'm going to see you again soon.
00:28:44 Goodbye.
00:28:50 - Goodbye.
00:28:52 [music playing]
00:28:56 [door opens]
00:29:23 - Please don't sell me, Professor.
00:29:26 Please.
00:29:27 - Oh, I bless your heart.
00:29:29 I wouldn't sell you for all the money in the world.
00:29:34 - I thought you might want the $5,000.
00:29:37 - Oh, my sweet, sweet child.
00:29:40 There's nothing in the whole world that could take you from me.
00:29:44 Nothing.
00:29:47 - I-- I love you, Professor.
00:29:51 - And I'm going to make myself worthy of that love.
00:29:54 - When somebody loves somebody, everything and everybody
00:30:01 makes life a happy song.
00:30:06 When somebody has nobody, birds won't sing,
00:30:15 and that somebody finds life without a song.
00:30:22 If you want to see a picture of the whole world upside down,
00:30:33 just picture me without you and you without me.
00:30:42 Just close your eyes and you'll see how lonesome we'd be.
00:30:51 Stars would fall.
00:30:53 Dreams would all crumble.
00:30:58 Dolls for good, parcels would tumble.
00:31:05 There'd be no me without you, no you without me,
00:31:14 and yet nobody could be as happy as we,
00:31:23 smiling through, clinging together.
00:31:30 What would I do without you and you without me?
00:31:40 - That's all for the best, Alan.
00:31:53 You're free now.
00:31:55 - Of course.
00:31:56 I just feel sorry for anybody who's ever been in my shoes.
00:31:59 I just feel sorry for Aunt Caroline.
00:32:01 She's done so much for me.
00:32:03 If she knew I'd actually gone into the theater business,
00:32:05 well, I believe she'd change her name.
00:32:08 - That's better than what you thought she'd do,
00:32:10 cut you off without a cent.
00:32:12 - Oh, she did that.
00:32:15 - She did?
00:32:16 - Yes.
00:32:17 But I have some money of my own.
00:32:18 That's how I'm able to do the play.
00:32:21 All the same, I hate having to hurt her.
00:32:25 - You've made me happy.
00:32:27 Isn't that important to you?
00:32:30 - So important that I'm glad I gave up everything else to do it.
00:32:35 - And I'm going to have my name on the bills
00:32:37 and a star on my dressing room door?
00:32:39 - And dozens of stars.
00:32:44 - Remember now, we start to leave the minute I
00:32:48 refuse his first offer.
00:32:52 - That sounds like Professor Appleby.
00:32:55 I sent for him to talk about his grandchild.
00:32:57 He'd be perfect for the part of the little girl.
00:33:00 - It's mighty shrewd of Drew to send for me.
00:33:02 An actor of my reputation can't hurt him.
00:33:05 After all, I--
00:33:06 - Well, I knew it was you.
00:33:08 Come in, come in.
00:33:09 - Yes.
00:33:10 Yes.
00:33:12 - This is Professor Appleby and his granddaughter.
00:33:15 - Delvia Delores Appleby.
00:33:17 - But they call me Dipple.
00:33:19 - Oh, yes.
00:33:20 Miss Cleo Marsh.
00:33:21 - Oh, I'm greatly honored, Miss Marsh.
00:33:23 - Hello.
00:33:24 - Miss Marsh has the leading role in our new play.
00:33:27 - Ah, opposite me, I suppose.
00:33:29 There's nothing I like better than to get my teeth
00:33:32 into a good romantic role.
00:33:34 But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?
00:33:38 It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
00:33:42 Arise.
00:33:43 Ah.
00:33:45 Arise.
00:33:46 - Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon.
00:33:50 - Yes.
00:33:51 Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon.
00:33:55 - Isn't he simply wonderful?
00:33:57 - I was quite a matinee idol in those days.
00:34:00 I still get letters from ladies in the towns where I played.
00:34:04 - Yes.
00:34:06 Landlady.
00:34:07 - Oh, no.
00:34:09 No.
00:34:11 I--
00:34:12 - Well, Shakespeare isn't exactly what I had in mind.
00:34:15 - Oh, no?
00:34:16 - Well, do your foot calls.
00:34:18 They're beautiful.
00:34:19 - Yes.
00:34:20 Yes.
00:34:21 Mr. Drew, you'd better close your windows.
00:34:23 Your room will be full of birds.
00:34:25 - Oh, I don't mind that.
00:34:26 - Oh, very well.
00:34:27 Let me see.
00:34:29 Yes.
00:34:30 The robin calling to the blue jay.
00:34:33 [whistling]
00:34:37 [laughing]
00:34:40 The blue jay responding.
00:34:43 [whistling]
00:34:48 - Isn't that simply wonderful?
00:34:50 - But they sound the same to me.
00:34:51 I can't tell any difference.
00:34:53 - Ah-ha!
00:34:54 But the bird can.
00:34:55 [laughing]
00:34:58 Yes.
00:34:59 - Well, what I wanted to talk about was you, Dimples.
00:35:02 - Oh, you want her, too?
00:35:04 Well, you're shrewder than I thought, Mr. Drew.
00:35:06 My granddaughter and I make an excellent team.
00:35:09 Just watch us.
00:35:11 Cicero, the fling.

00:36:03 [clapping]
00:36:06 - That's a charming dance, but we couldn't--
00:36:08 - I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:36:10 - Oh, I'm sorry.
00:36:11 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:36:13 - I'm sorry.

00:39:00 - I'm sorry.
00:39:01 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:02 - I'm sorry.
00:39:03 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:04 - I'm sorry.
00:39:05 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:06 - I'm sorry.
00:39:07 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:08 - I'm sorry.
00:39:09 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:10 - I'm sorry.
00:39:11 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:12 - I'm sorry.
00:39:13 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:14 - I'm sorry.
00:39:15 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:16 - I'm sorry.
00:39:17 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:18 - I'm sorry.
00:39:19 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:20 - I'm sorry.
00:39:21 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:22 - I'm sorry.
00:39:23 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:24 - I'm sorry.
00:39:25 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:26 - I'm sorry.
00:39:27 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:28 - I'm sorry.
00:39:29 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:30 - I'm sorry.
00:39:31 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:32 - I'm sorry.
00:39:33 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:34 - I'm sorry.
00:39:35 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:36 - I'm sorry.
00:39:37 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:38 - I'm sorry.
00:39:39 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:40 - I'm sorry.
00:39:41 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:42 - I'm sorry.
00:39:43 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:44 - I'm sorry.
00:39:45 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:46 - I'm sorry.
00:39:47 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:48 - I'm sorry.
00:39:49 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:50 - I'm sorry.
00:39:51 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:52 - I'm sorry.
00:39:53 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:54 - I'm sorry.
00:39:55 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:56 - I'm sorry.
00:39:57 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:39:58 - I'm sorry.
00:39:59 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:00 - I'm sorry.
00:40:01 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:02 - I'm sorry.
00:40:03 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:04 - I'm sorry.
00:40:05 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:06 - I'm sorry.
00:40:07 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:08 - I'm sorry.
00:40:09 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:10 - I'm sorry.
00:40:11 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:12 - I'm sorry.
00:40:13 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:14 - I'm sorry.
00:40:15 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:16 - I'm sorry.
00:40:17 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:18 - I'm sorry.
00:40:19 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:20 - I'm sorry.
00:40:21 I thought you were going to dance with me.
00:40:22 - I'm sorry.
00:40:24 - Uh, oh, here.
00:40:26 - Well, I'll give you $600.
00:40:28 - Sir, do you realize that this was Napoleon's watch,
00:40:31 given to him by Josephine the night before Waterloo?
00:40:34 Why, it's worth $2,000 if it's worth a cent.
00:40:37 I'll put it up to a stranger.
00:40:38 Ah, there's the gentleman who looks like he might know
00:40:41 something about antique jewelry.
00:40:43 - He wouldn't know anything about jewelry.
00:40:50 - Aye, sir, I am a recognized authority.
00:40:52 Which leads me not to recognize your remark.
00:40:55 My good man, what would you say a watch like this is worth?
00:40:59 - Uh, oh, that's a superb antique.
00:41:07 I, uh, I had one just like it myself.
00:41:10 - There you are.
00:41:11 And I never saw this gentleman before in all my life.
00:41:14 - I'll give you $700 for it.
00:41:17 - I haven't the money here,
00:41:18 but if you'll come to my bank in Harlem with me,
00:41:20 I'll give you $800 for it.
00:41:22 - I'm sorry, gentlemen.
00:41:24 - Ye agrees, my friend.
00:41:25 - But my boat is departing for the Orient in half an hour.
00:41:28 - And?
00:41:29 - Well, I guess I'll have to give it to Richards.
00:41:32 - You're a very lucky man, sir.
00:41:34 - That's for men.
00:41:35 - Can I talk to you a second?
00:41:37 - Oh, yes, of course.
00:41:39 - I hate to see Richards get a bargain like that.
00:41:48 I don't like him.
00:41:49 - Oh, I detest him.
00:41:51 - Now, if you could get a hold of that watch
00:41:53 and come up to my bank in Harlem,
00:41:54 I'd take it off your hands.
00:41:56 And I'll give you $10 for your trouble.
00:41:59 - Uh, could you make that $15?
00:42:02 - You drive a hard bargain, sir.
00:42:06 But I'll do it.
00:42:07 - Heh.
00:42:08 - There you are, sir.
00:42:09 $700.
00:42:10 - Just a minute.
00:42:11 I'll give you $800 for the watch.
00:42:13 - But I haven't got any more money.
00:42:15 You said it was mine for 700.
00:42:16 - Oh, no, this gentleman gets it for 800.
00:42:18 - Thank you very much.
00:42:19 I consider this a great favor.
00:42:22 - Heh heh.
00:42:23 - Heh heh.
00:42:24 - Well, look here, that's hardly fair.
00:42:25 I came here with $700 to buy a watch
00:42:27 and give it to someone else.
00:42:29 I'll break the bargain.
00:42:31 - Here.
00:42:32 Here's the watch.
00:42:33 - Watch?
00:42:34 What watch?
00:42:35 - Well, it is Napoleon's watch.
00:42:37 - You is the wrong man.
00:42:39 I'm not Napoleon.
00:42:40 - Uh, you're not, no.
00:42:42 But you said you told me to, to, to--
00:42:45 - Why, I never saw you before in my life.
00:42:47 - You--
00:42:48 - Uh, well, here.
00:42:49 Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
00:42:53 - Don't you see that, Jane?
00:43:04 - Well, who's smoking?
00:43:06 - Heh.
00:43:14 - Well, seeing you're a friend of mine--
00:43:17 - Yeah.
00:43:18 - I'll, uh, give you a dollar and a half for it.
00:43:21 - A dollar and a--
00:43:23 You don't understand.
00:43:24 This watch belonged to Napoleon.
00:43:26 - It did, eh?
00:43:27 - Yeah.
00:43:28 - Well, that makes it secondhand.
00:43:29 - Sir.
00:43:30 - Ah, Tom, my boy, the whole world is empty as an eggshell.
00:43:39 I know it more so I know it.
00:43:42 - Ah.
00:43:44 - There you are, Professor Appleby.
00:43:45 We've been waiting for you.
00:43:47 - Yes?
00:43:48 Well, gentlemen, to what do I owe that honor?
00:43:50 - Well, we supplied you everything for your play.
00:43:52 We're the creditors, one might say.
00:43:55 And Mr. Drew told us that you would give us our money.
00:43:59 - Money?
00:44:00 What money?
00:44:01 - Why, the money that Mr. Drew owes us for the scenery.
00:44:03 - And the costumes, and the--
00:44:04 - Oh, yes, yes, that money.
00:44:05 But gentlemen, you're surely not suggesting
00:44:07 that Mr. Drew and I intend to defraud you.
00:44:11 Mr. Drew, you told us that he would pay us our money.
00:44:14 - Yes, of course.
00:44:15 Pay them, Professor.
00:44:16 - Well, I-- I don't like their attitude, Alan.
00:44:19 I never heard of people doing business this way.
00:44:22 - Oh, why argue?
00:44:23 Pay them and get it over.
00:44:25 - Yeah.
00:44:26 Well, the truth is I find myself a little short.
00:44:30 - Short?
00:44:31 How much?
00:44:32 - Well, it's around $800.
00:44:36 - That's all the money I gave you.
00:44:39 - Well, it-- it wasn't my fault, Alan.
00:44:42 I was cheated.
00:44:43 Really, I was.
00:44:44 - That's all the money I had.
00:44:45 And I was stupid enough to trust a scoundrel like you.
00:44:47 Why, you blundering old fool, the professor
00:44:49 said that you'd pay us now.
00:44:50 What about it?
00:44:52 - I'm sorry, but you heard what he said.
00:44:54 - Well, you're certainly going to pay me,
00:44:56 and nobody's going to put anything
00:44:57 over on Emory T. Hawkins.
00:44:58 - And you're not through with me either.
00:45:00 That's what I get for giving credit to a bluffing upstart.
00:45:03 - Come on, let's pull this stuff out.
00:45:05 I'm going to send a wagon for my stuff.
00:45:07 [chatter]
00:45:09 - Well, I guess that ends everything.
00:45:20 - I didn't mean to do it, Dimples.
00:45:24 You see--
00:45:25 - You broke your promise to me.
00:45:27 - But the man swore to me.
00:45:29 He gave me his word.
00:45:30 - You told me you wouldn't steal anymore.
00:45:33 - But what I really meant--
00:45:35 I mean, I didn't buy the watch for myself.
00:45:39 - You said you were going to be honest.
00:45:43 - Oh.
00:45:44 Well, I guess I'm not much good.
00:45:48 Maybe you'd be better off without me.
00:45:50 - But I thought you had money, Alan.
00:45:52 - I did have.
00:45:53 Enough, anyway.
00:45:54 I guess I didn't take care of it very well.
00:45:57 - Well, uh, what are you going to do now?
00:46:00 - Well, I suppose I can get a job somewhere
00:46:02 and maybe save up enough money to do the show.
00:46:05 That needn't change our plans about marriage any, Cleo.
00:46:10 I don't suppose money is very important
00:46:12 to people who are really in love.
00:46:14 - You can say that because you've always had money.
00:46:17 - Perhaps.
00:46:18 - I'm afraid, Alan, that this changes everything.
00:46:21 - Then you're not really in love with me.
00:46:23 - Oh, you mustn't say that, darling.
00:46:26 I'll run along.
00:46:27 Goodbye, Alan.
00:46:29 - Goodbye.
00:46:31 [footsteps]
00:46:34 - I'm awfully sorry, Alan.
00:46:36 - Look here, Drew.
00:46:37 It's all right for the rest of them
00:46:38 to take their things back and sell them again.
00:46:41 But these costumes have been made to fit your play
00:46:43 and they're not worth a penny to anybody else.
00:46:45 How am I going to get my money out of them?
00:46:48 - Sorry, but there's nothing I can do.
00:46:50 - Well, we'll see about that.
00:46:52 Somebody's going to jail for this.
00:46:57 [footsteps]
00:47:00 - Mrs. Drew, do you still think I'm worth $5,000?
00:47:10 - You're worth ever so much more, darling.
00:47:14 - And you still want me to come and live with you?
00:47:17 - I can't think of anything I'd like more.
00:47:20 - All right, I'll come.
00:47:22 Have you got the $5,000 with you?
00:47:25 [laughing]
00:47:28 [music playing]
00:47:31 - I'll be right out.
00:47:35 Won't take me more than a minute.
00:47:38 - So you're really going.
00:47:47 - Yes, Professor.
00:47:49 - Well, I knew it was the best thing for you.
00:47:53 But I-- I didn't think you'd want to go.
00:47:58 - Well, it's like Mrs. Drew said.
00:48:01 A little girl shouldn't be raised
00:48:03 in this kind of environment.
00:48:05 - Yes, you'd be much better off in that nice big house.
00:48:12 Of course, it'll be lonely.
00:48:14 There'll be no children to play with.
00:48:17 - But I've got to think of the future, Professor.
00:48:20 That's what Mrs. Drew says.
00:48:22 And she's right.
00:48:24 And she'll see that you get the right kind of food, too.
00:48:29 Plenty of carrots, maybe three or four times a day.
00:48:36 Of course, you won't be able to go fishing with me anymore.
00:48:43 But I guess it's the best thing.
00:48:46 Fishing isn't any too good for little girls.
00:48:51 I like fishing fine.
00:48:56 But I guess it isn't good for little girls.
00:49:00 - Oh, I-- I guess it isn't.
00:49:06 Come in.
00:49:08 - Well, I think I'll be going.
00:49:10 - A note from Mrs. Drew, sir.
00:49:12 Are you ready, miss?
00:49:13 - I'm ready.
00:49:15 Goodbye, Professor.
00:49:17 - Goodbye, my little angel.
00:49:21 - You'll come and see me sometimes, won't you?
00:49:25 - Of course I will.
00:49:27 And you're going to take good care of yourself
00:49:30 like you said you would?
00:49:33 - I will.
00:49:35 And you won't.
00:49:38 - I won't.
00:49:40 - And you won't be good, too.
00:49:46 [door opens]
00:49:48 [door closes]
00:49:50 [music playing]
00:49:53 [door closes]
00:50:19 [knocking]
00:50:22 - Oh, Mr. Spencer, there's a man without a policeman,
00:50:28 Mr. Hawkins, to see you.
00:50:30 - I'm not here.
00:50:31 Tell him I'm not here.
00:50:32 - Yes, but Mr. Hawkins, he--
00:50:33 - Now, now, now, dearie.
00:50:35 Listen, Appleby.
00:50:37 I've come here to give you one more chance
00:50:39 to pay for those costumes.
00:50:41 If you don't, I'll have you in jail in an hour.
00:50:48 - You'll have your money tonight.
00:50:50 - I might have known you'd try that.
00:50:52 I should have sent the law.
00:50:54 I made a mistake coming here myself.
00:50:57 - You certainly did, Mr. Hawkins.
00:50:59 And if you don't get out, I'll be tempted to pull off
00:51:02 one of your arms and beat your head in with it!
00:51:06 - Mr. Spencer, I didn't know you were going to start.
00:51:08 I was not--
00:51:09 [door closes]
00:51:11 [footsteps]
00:51:14 [theme music]
00:51:23 [music playing]
00:51:50 - The professor used to dance and sing for me after dinner.
00:51:53 But of course, the dinners weren't good for me.
00:51:55 Last night, we had wieners.
00:52:00 For a pea!
00:52:01 Can you do bird calls?
00:52:18 [clattering]
00:52:21 [clattering]
00:52:24 [clattering]
00:52:52 [coughs]
00:52:54 - Professor Appleby to see you, Mrs. Drew.
00:52:57 - Oh, yes.
00:52:58 Come right in, Professor.
00:53:00 - Oh.
00:53:01 - I see you got my note.
00:53:02 - Yes, thank you.
00:53:05 I, uh-- I guess it's better for everyone concerned.
00:53:10 Dimples will be happy, and my debts will be paid.
00:53:15 And as for me, I--
00:53:17 I guess I ought to be glad to know that Dimples
00:53:19 has such a fine home.
00:53:21 - You won't be sorry for this, Professor.
00:53:23 - I, uh-- I wonder if I might see Dimples for a minute,
00:53:27 just to say goodbye.
00:53:29 - Oh, yes, of course.
00:53:31 Rufus, take Professor Appleby to Dimples' room.
00:53:34 - Yes, ma'am.
00:53:35 - Thank you.
00:53:36 [music playing]
00:53:42 [music playing]
00:53:45 - Why, my darling.
00:53:56 - Oh, Professor.
00:53:58 - Oh, what-- what's wrong with my little girl?
00:54:01 Aren't you happy here?
00:54:03 - Oh, yes.
00:54:04 Yes.
00:54:05 I'm very happy.
00:54:07 I hurt my finger.
00:54:09 - Well, are you sure?
00:54:11 - Of course.
00:54:12 - There.
00:54:17 That's better, isn't it?
00:54:19 There we are.
00:54:21 - And you can see this lovely dress Mr. Drew bought me.
00:54:25 - Yes.
00:54:26 It's beautiful.
00:54:27 Must have cost a lot of money, huh?
00:54:30 - And he's going to buy me some dolls, too.
00:54:33 Three of them.
00:54:34 - Oh, you're a very lucky little girl.
00:54:37 And I'm happy to know that you've got such a nice home.
00:54:41 - And isn't every little girl can have such a good environment?
00:54:46 - Oh, my darling.
00:54:48 I'm going to take you home.
00:54:51 - No, Professor.
00:54:52 Mr. Drew says I'm going to have a lot of-- of advantages here.
00:54:56 - Yes, but no place is nice for my little girl
00:54:59 when it makes her cry.
00:55:01 You're going home with me.
00:55:03 - But if I stay here, you won't have to go to jail.
00:55:06 You can give Alan back his money.
00:55:09 - Oh, I won't go to jail, sweet.
00:55:12 Mrs. Drew, I-- I'm terribly sorry.
00:55:22 It-- it was in a moment of great weakness that I took this money.
00:55:27 When I saw my little girl crying,
00:55:29 I realized that there wasn't enough money in the world
00:55:32 to compensate me for that.
00:55:34 - You saw her crying?
00:55:35 I don't understand.
00:55:36 Don't you like it here?
00:55:37 - I do.
00:55:38 But it gets so lonesome without the professor.
00:55:41 - I was willing to give her up, knowing all you could do for her.
00:55:45 But I see now that Dimples needs me as much as I need her.
00:55:51 - Oh, I guess I was foolish to imagine the child
00:55:54 could ever become as fond of me as she is of you.
00:55:57 I admire your honesty
00:55:59 and respect you for declining the money.
00:56:01 - Oh, thank you, Mrs. Drew.
00:56:03 - And I thank you, too.
00:56:05 You know, I wouldn't go away if the professor could live here, too.
00:56:10 Mrs. Drew, why don't you marry the professor?
00:56:15 - What?
00:56:16 But, child--
00:56:17 - Then your house wouldn't be so lonesome.
00:56:20 Professor's lots of fun.
00:56:22 [coughing]
00:56:23 I'd marry him if I were grown up.
00:56:26 Of course, he hasn't much money.
00:56:28 But you've got a lot.
00:56:32 Yes, well, I think perhaps you'd better run along, darling,
00:56:36 and get your things.
00:56:37 I'll be with you in a minute.
00:56:39 - Goodbye, Mrs. Drew.
00:56:41 Maybe you can come and see us someday.
00:56:44 At our house, you won't have to eat any carrots.
00:56:48 - Oh.
00:56:49 Well, goodbye, Mrs. Drew,
00:56:53 and thank you for all your kindness.
00:56:57 [door opens]
00:56:59 - Of course, you realize, Mrs. Drew,
00:57:05 I was only doing this to save our poor little home.
00:57:10 - Why, yes, of course.
00:57:12 - But thanks to a kindly providence,
00:57:13 I still have means of getting the money.
00:57:16 Of course, it will mean that I'll have to sell my one remaining heirloom,
00:57:20 something that's been in the family for generations,
00:57:22 but I'll do it.
00:57:24 - Oh, that's too bad.
00:57:26 - Oh, I wouldn't mind so much
00:57:27 if I didn't have to sell it at such a great sacrifice.
00:57:30 But it seems a pity that these money-grubbing jewelers
00:57:33 should get the watch for $1,000
00:57:35 when it's easily worth five times that much.
00:57:37 - The watch?
00:57:38 - Yes, yes, Napoleon's watch.
00:57:41 - Oh.
00:57:42 - Josephine gave it to him,
00:57:43 and he gave it to my grandfather at Elba.
00:57:46 Oh, poor dear grandfather.
00:57:49 If he'd ever guessed that I'd have to sell Napoleon's watch
00:57:52 to a money-grubbing jeweler.
00:57:54 - Is that it?
00:57:55 - Yes, isn't it a beautiful thing?
00:57:58 - Is there anything I could do?
00:57:59 - Oh, no, no, Mrs. Drew.
00:58:01 I couldn't take money from you.
00:58:03 But perhaps, perhaps you'll let me give it to you.
00:58:07 - Why, yes.
00:58:08 - I'd like you to have it.
00:58:09 - Oh, you're very kind, but I couldn't take it.
00:58:11 Oh, no, no, no.
00:58:12 - Well, of course, you could give me the small pittance
00:58:15 that the jewelers offered,
00:58:17 and someday when fortune smiles on me again,
00:58:19 I'll buy it back from you.
00:58:21 For dame fortune is a fickle gypsy,
00:58:24 always blind and often tipsy.
00:58:27 - A thousand dollars?
00:58:29 - Yes, dear lady.
00:58:31 You'll take care of it, won't you?
00:58:34 - Yes.
00:58:35 - Now I know just how Napoleon felt
00:58:38 when he had to give up this beautiful trinket.
00:58:43 Oh, thank you.
00:58:45 Good night, Mrs. Drew.
00:58:47 - Good night.
00:58:49 - What a lovely hand.
00:58:51 - Why, perfection.
00:58:52 - Oh, pardon me.
00:58:54 I forgot myself.
00:58:56 I didn't realize my position.
00:58:59 But after all, Mrs. Drew, I'm only human,
00:59:02 and your charms are irresistible.
00:59:07 - Good night.
00:59:08 - Good night.
00:59:09 - Good night.
00:59:16 [music playing]
00:59:19 - Uh, $0.35 for one ticket?
00:59:30 - Well, opening night prices are a little high,
00:59:32 but those are the best seats in the house.
00:59:35 - Well, Alan's play opens tonight.
00:59:42 I'm afraid that Betty is still fond of Alan.
00:59:45 But I've forbidden her to see him.
00:59:47 - Have you?
00:59:48 - Yes, the theater is ruling that young man.
00:59:50 - Can't we speak of something else?
00:59:52 - Hmm?
00:59:53 Oh, yes, yes, yes.
00:59:54 Of course.
00:59:55 Of course, Betty.
00:59:57 Oh, by the way, I thought you might be interested
01:00:01 in an old emerald ring that I picked up at auction.
01:00:05 500 years old.
01:00:07 One of the finest things in my collection.
01:00:10 - Hmm.
01:00:11 I know so little about these things.
01:00:14 By the way, I have something I think might interest you.
01:00:19 The watch Josephine gave Napoleon.
01:00:23 - Oh.
01:00:24 - Professor Appleby had it in his family for many years.
01:00:28 - Oh.
01:00:29 Hmm.
01:00:33 Hmm.
01:00:38 Well, that watch belonged to Napoleon.
01:00:40 It was given to him 20 years after he died.
01:00:44 - What?
01:00:45 - This thing is tin.
01:00:47 An obvious fake.
01:00:49 - But I gave the professor $1,000 for it.
01:00:52 - Then you were robbed.
01:00:53 The watch is worthless.
01:00:55 - After I helped him.
01:01:00 I kept him out of jail.
01:01:02 I trusted him.
01:01:04 I believed all the kind things he said.
01:01:08 - The man has made a fool of you, Caroline.
01:01:10 - He hasn't yet.
01:01:11 I'm going to show him that I can be
01:01:13 just as merciless as he can.
01:01:16 Get your hat, Jasper.
01:01:17 We're going to the police station.
01:01:20 - Can you see her?
01:01:24 - Who, darling?
01:01:25 - Oh, don't pretend.
01:01:26 I know you're looking for Betty.
01:01:28 - I don't see her.
01:01:30 I don't suppose she'll be here.
01:01:33 - I'm just a doorman, Miss, and orders is orders.
01:01:37 - That's all right, Spike.
01:01:38 We're expecting her.
01:01:39 - You're expecting me?
01:01:40 - As if you didn't know.
01:01:42 Did you find her yet?
01:01:54 - No.
01:01:55 - Well, I'm sure she's in the kitchen.
01:01:57 - I'm sure she's in the kitchen.
01:01:59 - I'm sure she's in the kitchen.
01:02:01 - No, I didn't think she'd come.
01:02:04 Betty.
01:02:08 - I think I'd better go and finish my line.
01:02:11 - This is the nicest surprise I've ever had.
01:02:14 - I came to wish you good luck.
01:02:16 - This is good luck, Betty.
01:02:18 I didn't think you'd ever look at me again
01:02:19 after the fool I made of myself.
01:02:21 - I'm willing to forget all that, Alan.
01:02:23 But Father never will.
01:02:25 If he knew I'd come here, he'd be in a rage.
01:02:27 - Ten minutes.
01:02:28 - Come with me, dear, and I'll get you a seat.
01:02:30 - Ten minutes.
01:02:32 (train whistle)
01:02:34 (applause)
01:02:37 (upbeat music)
01:02:40 (laughter)
01:03:05 (upbeat music)
01:03:07 - Oh, Topsy.
01:03:12 Topsy.
01:03:13 You've been very bad again.
01:03:15 - We want to see Professor Appleby.
01:03:17 - Well, you'll have to wait here.
01:03:19 I'll see if I can find him.
01:03:21 - Don't you think all this can wait until tomorrow, Caroline?
01:03:28 You know how I know this sort of place.
01:03:31 - No, he must be arrested.
01:03:32 It wasn't bad enough that he robbed me of the money.
01:03:34 He also had the insolence to put the money into this...
01:03:37 this foul venture of Alan's.
01:03:39 - Mr. Appleby.
01:03:40 Mr. Appleby.
01:03:41 Do you happen to know two policemen?
01:03:44 - Two policemen?
01:03:45 - Yeah, policemen.
01:03:46 They're looking for you.
01:03:48 - Oh, police...
01:03:49 They're looking...
01:03:50 Oh.
01:03:51 Yes, I know.
01:03:57 (upbeat music)
01:04:25 - I do like you, Topsy.
01:04:27 I like you because you've never had any father or mother.
01:04:31 I like you, and I want you to be good.
01:04:34 I want you to be good for my sake.
01:04:37 (laughing)
01:04:39 - No, Missy.
01:04:42 I'll be ashamed to be good.
01:04:47 - Oh, Topsy.
01:04:49 Topsy, I'm sorry for you.
01:04:53 - Have you kids seen a suspicious-looking character
01:04:55 around here?
01:04:56 (laughing)
01:04:58 Oh, I beg your pardon.
01:05:01 - Temple.
01:05:05 (upbeat music)
01:05:07 (upbeat music)
01:05:09 - Hey, you!
01:05:31 What are you ducking in and out of the place for?
01:05:33 Are you trying to hide from somebody?
01:05:34 - Who, me?
01:05:35 - Yes, you.
01:05:36 - Why, I was sitting there attending to my own business.
01:05:38 And if you don't mind,
01:05:39 I'll go back to attending to my business.
01:05:42 - Uncle Tom on stage.
01:05:48 On stage, Uncle Tom.
01:05:49 On stage, Uncle Tom.
01:05:50 - Hey!
01:05:51 I thought you said you were Uncle Tom.
01:05:54 - Yes, yes, you're all quite right, my dear fellow.
01:05:56 I am Uncle Tom.
01:05:57 - Well, you're supposed to be on the stage, aren't you?
01:06:00 - Uh, on the...
01:06:02 Uh, yes, I am.
01:06:04 Thank you very much for calling my attention to it.
01:06:07 I, uh, I was going to make my entrance through the exit.
01:06:11 (laughing)
01:06:12 Stupid of me, wasn't it?
01:06:14 (upbeat music)
01:06:16 - On stage, Uncle Tom.
01:06:21 - Uncle Tom!
01:06:23 Uncle Tom!
01:06:24 Uncle Tom!
01:06:25 (upbeat music)
01:06:27 Uncle Tom!
01:06:33 Uncle Tom!
01:06:34 - Ah, here I is, Miss Eva.
01:06:37 (coughing)
01:06:38 - And here I is, Miss Eva.
01:06:41 (laughing)
01:06:43 (upbeat music)
01:06:45 - Roger, get up, get up.
01:06:50 - Why?
01:06:53 (laughing)
01:06:55 (upbeat music)
01:06:57 - You're under arrest.
01:07:02 - Oh, how about I as Uncle Tom?
01:07:04 - You're Uncle Tom, you're Professor Appleby.
01:07:06 I know who you were all the time.
01:07:08 - Oh, no, I'm playing in the show here.
01:07:10 I've got a...
01:07:11 - Will you come with me, Uncle Tom?
01:07:13 - Yes, Miss Eva.
01:07:15 My only duty is to tend to you.
01:07:18 (upbeat music)
01:07:20 (audience applauding)
01:07:24 - What's the matter?
01:07:26 - Everything's all right, darling.
01:07:28 I just want to talk for a few minutes with these gentlemen.
01:07:31 - Oh, never mind that.
01:07:32 He's under arrest for stealing $1,000.
01:07:34 - Oh.
01:07:35 - He stole...
01:07:36 - But I didn't take it for myself, darling.
01:07:38 I wanted to pay Alan back.
01:07:40 Really, I did.
01:07:41 - Oh, come on, come on.
01:07:42 - You leave him alone.
01:07:43 He didn't steal anything from you.
01:07:45 - I'm sorry, darling, but you'll be better off this way.
01:07:48 - There isn't much time, Douglas.
01:07:49 You better hurry for the last act.
01:07:51 - No, no, I'm going to jail with the professor.
01:07:54 - Please, Aunt Caroline.
01:07:55 - This is my affair, Alan.
01:07:57 - It's painful, but it has to be done.
01:07:59 A man is a thief.
01:08:01 - No, darling.
01:08:02 You've got to stay and finish the play.
01:08:05 - I can't do it, Professor.
01:08:07 I can't.
01:08:09 I can't!
01:08:10 - Now listen.
01:08:11 No Appleby ever quit a show.
01:08:14 We've always been troopers.
01:08:16 And when you get to be a little older,
01:08:17 you'll know what that means.
01:08:19 You've got big scenes to play, darling.
01:08:22 And I want you to play them just as though you thought
01:08:24 I was out here to watch.
01:08:28 She'll stay, won't you, Pumpkins?
01:08:31 - If-- if you want me to, Professor.
01:08:35 - That's right.
01:08:36 And you'll give a good performance too, won't you?
01:08:39 - I'll try.
01:08:43 - That's my little girl.
01:08:46 I'm proud of you.
01:08:48 - And I'm proud of you too.
01:08:51 [sobbing]
01:08:54 - Well, I-- I'm ready to go now.
01:09:02 [knocking]
01:09:04 [singing]
01:09:11 - Kindly sit down in this box until the scene is over.
01:09:14 - Young man, are you suggesting that we witness
01:09:16 this-- this-- this foul exhibition?
01:09:18 - We certainly would not sit down.
01:09:19 Come along, Drasper.
01:09:20 - Please, the show is on.
01:09:21 You'll have to sit down and stop talking.
01:09:22 - I will not sit down.
01:09:23 - Our presence here does not indicate
01:09:24 that we are degenerates.
01:09:25 - Officer, can't you make these people understand?
01:09:27 They'll disrupt the show.
01:09:28 - Oh, very well, Drasper.
01:09:29 Let's not make a scene.
01:09:30 Come on in here.
01:09:31 It'll only last a minute.
01:09:32 [singing]
01:09:42 - Betty's here.
01:09:43 She's dead.
01:09:44 [singing]
01:09:48 - Well, you're looking much better, dear.
01:09:53 In a day or two, you're going to be as strong as a lion.
01:09:57 - No, Papa.
01:09:58 You needn't pretend.
01:10:00 Because I know--
01:10:02 - You know what, dear?
01:10:04 - That I'm going away.
01:10:06 And very soon.
01:10:08 - Oh, my baby, you mustn't think those things.
01:10:10 Why, I wouldn't be surprised if you were out of bed by tomorrow,
01:10:13 playing in the garden with Topsy.
01:10:15 - No, Father.
01:10:17 The angels told me.
01:10:20 They told me last night when my head hurts so,
01:10:28 they're going to take me to heaven.
01:10:31 - Yeah, now you feel more cheerful when you've had a nap.
01:10:35 - I am cheerful, Papa.
01:10:37 Because heaven is beautiful.
01:10:41 But-- but I'll miss you.
01:10:46 - You're not going to leave me, my pet.
01:10:48 Not for a long, long time.
01:10:52 - And there's something else that makes me sad.
01:10:55 Can't something be done for Uncle Tom and his people?
01:11:00 - What do you mean, dear?
01:11:03 - They want their children as much as you love me.
01:11:09 Uncle Tom loves his children.
01:11:12 Please do something for them.
01:11:14 - Anything I can, dear.
01:11:16 Eva.
01:11:21 - You'll give Uncle Tom his freedom, won't you, Papa?
01:11:25 - I will, dear.
01:11:27 I will.
01:11:32 Eva.
01:11:34 Eva.
01:11:38 - I can see those great gates.
01:11:41 They're made of pearls.
01:11:46 And they're opening wide.
01:11:51 And there are angels.
01:11:55 They're calling for me.
01:11:59 I'm coming.
01:12:03 I'm coming.
01:12:10 - Eva.
01:12:11 Eva.
01:12:15 She doesn't hear it.
01:12:17 It's over.
01:12:18 Praise the Lord, Master.
01:12:22 It's over.
01:12:24 It's over.
01:12:26 Oh, swing low, sweet chariot.
01:12:34 Coming for to carry me home.
01:12:39 Oh, swing low, sweet chariot.
01:12:48 Coming for to carry me home.
01:12:56 [applause]
01:13:04 - Well, I guess we'd better go now.
01:13:07 - Yes, I-- yes.
01:13:09 - Obviously, you haven't a heart.
01:13:11 You think of taking that lovely child away from our grandfather.
01:13:15 - Our friend helped Alan produce this beautiful play.
01:13:18 - Well, I thought you said the theater was a bad influence.
01:13:21 - I'll thank him not to interfere with my affairs.
01:13:23 Let him go.
01:13:24 - Oh, thank you, Mrs. Drew.
01:13:27 You're a woman of great character and discrimination.
01:13:32 May I?
01:13:33 [applause]
01:13:39 - Wait.
01:13:45 Don't go.
01:13:46 We have a treat for you tonight.
01:13:48 The entire company, headed by our charming little star,
01:13:52 has prepared a celebration for the first anniversary
01:13:55 of Uncle Tom's Cabin.
01:13:57 Out of the south has recently come a new form of entertainment.
01:14:01 Our company wishes to be the first to present it in New York.
01:14:04 If it is your pleasure.
