:16:00
Except our private detective,
who radios my wife.

:16:03
- You got a wife?
- No. This is a setup, not a confession.

:16:06
But we hire some attractive girl
to marry me...

:16:09
and when the time comes...
:16:11
she stages a pretty little scene
over her erring husband...

:16:14
and sues Connie for alienation of affection.
:16:16
That's it, that's it.
:16:17
The Star called Connie a husband-stealer.
She denies it.

:16:20
We duplicate the situation.
This time, she does steal a husband.

:16:23
This time, we're right.
:16:24
Let her go to bat with a libel suit
and see what she collects.

:16:27
But how about a girl to marry you?
Do you know anybody?

:16:30
Now, that's tricky.
:16:31
We've got to find someone we can trust.
:16:33
I've got the girl, the very girl!
:16:41
Hello.
:16:42
What happened to you?
:16:46
Do I want to get married?
:16:49
What do you think?
I'll call the preacher right away.

:16:54
The city hall?
Then I can't wear my wedding gown.

:16:58
I won't ask any questions.
And don't keep me waiting.

:17:02
Tiny? Tiny, come here.
:17:05
I'm so happy. Today is my wedding day.
:17:08
What, again, Miss Gladys?
:17:11
You can't do this to me,
Warren Haggerty. Not to me!

:17:14
Let me out of here.
:17:16
For two years, you've had me
on a merry-go-round...

:17:18
waiting for that gold ring,
but this is where I get off...

:17:20
- and stay off!
- Be quiet.

:17:22
I won't be quiet!
:17:23
The things I've taken for that newspaper...
:17:26
but this gets the blue ribbon,
trying to marry me off...

:17:29
to that baboon!
:17:31
Let's not deal in personality.
:17:33
But, darling, it's only for a month,
maybe less.

:17:36
Then six weeks in Reno.
:17:37
And, Miss Benton, they've got
the loveliest place in Reno.

:17:40
You'd love it.
You can play craps there every night.

:17:43
That's right, that's right.
:17:44
I'll come the moment you get divorced.
:17:45
But I don't want a divorce.
I want to get married and stay married.

:17:49
If you don't want to marry me, say so.
:17:51
Of course I want to marry you,
but don't you understand, Gladys?

:17:54
This comes first. It's our only chance.
I'll get fired.

:17:56
There isn't a newspaper in the world...
:17:58
that would hire me as an office boy.
Would they, Bill?
