Every time I've wanted you for something, my birthday, New Year's Eve when I waited up till five in the morning... Hildebrand 'Hildy' Johnson:
Oh, I know, but a big story broke. Peggy Grant:

Oh, what do you mean, forgotten. That was the Clara Hammond murder on your birthday

- McCUE: McCue talking.
- Oh, hello, Mac.
00:00:11.717 --> 00:00:14.428
It's always a big story.
00:01:00.599 --> 00:01:02.893
Dear, this is Mr. McCue.
Mac, this is my girl.
00:00:38.411 --> 00:00:41.497
We haven't even got a place
to sleep, except the train.
00:00:47.999 --> 00:00:48.713
You mean you're not coming?
00:00:18.849 --> 00:00:20.768
What do you mean, forgotten?
00:00:51.882 --> 00:00:55.636
It's all that Walter Burns.
You simply can't resist him.
00:00:30.945 --> 00:00:33.739
I'm just ashamed to face her.
00:00:33.823 --> 00:00:35.095
If she knew about that money —
00:00:55.072 --> 00:00:58.003
Him? I wouldn't raise a finger
if he was dying.
00:00:14.512 --> 00:00:16.472
The biggest story in the world.
00:00:20.851 --> 00:00:23.396
That was the Clara Haman murder
on your birthday.
00:00:28.234 --> 00:00:30.861
Mother's downstairs in a taxicab.
00:00:16.555 --> 00:00:18.766
And the next day
everybody's forgotten it, even you.
00:00:09.034 --> 00:00:11.634
Well, I know, but a big story broke.
00:00:36.001 --> 00:00:38.327
It's all we've got in the world, Hildy.
00:00:48.796 --> 00:00:51.799
Why, yes, I'm coming.
I'll meet you at the information booth.
00:00:43.582 --> 00:00:47.001
You and Mother have the baggage checked.
There are the tickets.
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:05.253
Every time I've wanted you for something —
00:00:05.336 --> 00:00:09.257
my birthday, New Year's Eve,
when I waited up till 5:00 in the morning —
00:00:41.058 --> 00:00:43.499
Listen, honey, I'll tell you what we'll do.
00:00:23.479 --> 00:00:28.015
It won't hurt to wait just a few minutes.
And the boy's on his way with the money now.
