1:22:07
Well, she said she could ride a little.
1:22:11
- Mark?
- Hm?
1:22:13
Mark, listen. I'm a good fighter
if you need me.
1:22:17
I mean, if you are in
some kind of trouble.
1:22:20
I have absolutely no scruples.
I'd lie to the police or anything.
1:22:23
What on earth are you talking about?
1:22:26
I heard you and Marnie
this morning right out here.
1:22:29
- Heard?
- OK, I eavesdropped.
1:22:33
We should've made you go to college
or come out or something.
1:22:36
- I can see that now.
- Don't patronise me, Mark.
1:22:40
That Mary-Marnie, brown-haired blonde
you married so fast and sneaky
1:22:43
and tried to hustle off
to the South Pacific!
1:22:45
I didn't have to overhear stuff about
your not intending to go to jail too,
1:22:50
to know that
you're in some sort of fix.
1:22:53
- Please, Mark, will you let me help?
- Alright, you can help.
1:22:57
You can help by being nice to Marnie.
She needs a friend.
1:23:01
I always thought that a girl's
best friend was her mother.
1:23:06
Poor old Mark.
Is her mother that ghastly?
1:23:09
When the in-laws are so grim,
you don't invite them to the wedding.
1:23:13
The usual excuse is poor health
or the strain of the trip, you know?
1:23:17
But to claim they're dead,
now, come on!
1:23:19
Alright, Lil, what is it you're up to?
Out with it.
1:23:23
Me? I'm just offering you my services.
1:23:27
Guerrilla fighter, perjurer,
intelligence agent.
1:23:30
- Alright, intelligence agent.
- Baltimore.
1:23:34
There's a mother in Baltimore.
1:23:36
Marnie made
a phone call this morning.
1:23:38
She said she hadn't been able to write
because she 'd had the flu.
1:23:41
She didn 't know when she 'd go to
Baltimore, but she 'd send money.
1:23:45
She said to go on writing to her
at the same post office box.
1:23:51
I listened through the library door.
1:23:55
She's having you on, Lil.
It's some sort of gag.
1:23:59
You've been ratty. She's set out
to teach you some manners.
