 Slave singing about the river. One mistake. They don't run through Pennsylvania. Oh, Dad. Still homesick for Pennsylvania? Oh, I don't know. I'm getting kind of used to it. You know my slaves sing better than anybody else's slaves around here? That's because they love you. You're always freeing someone else. I think I'll go down and free a couple of those tanners right now. I want to New Orleans, Dad. What again? Give them my regards. Why, what do you mean? Uh, son, you can fool your father. You got something on your mind and it's a petticoat. Carl, you're in love. And I'm glad of it. Listen, on this plantation, we got wonderful cotton fields and flower beds. Now what, we wanted some little feet to be running over. Would you like that, Dad? Would I like it? Carl, I haven't bought any baby shoes since I bought yours. And I want to start all over again. So you go ahead down to New Orleans and make arrangements. I beg your pardon. Good evening, Mr. Van Horne. Good evening. Would you ask Miss Dixiana if she would be so considerate as to see me? Certainly, sir. But I think both you and I know that she will be very glad to see you. Huh? Service, Mr. Montague. I don't like being made a fool of by your artists. But I have no control over Pee Wee and Ginger. They're always up to it. I'm talking about Dixiana. You'd better advise her to stop throwing roses to strangers. I beg your pardon, sir. Why, what right do you give orders to Mr. Catano or his artists? Well, sometime I might show you, Senor Catano, his IOUs if it's any business of yours. Please, please, I'll go at once. And don't forget to speak to Dixiana about the rose. I resent that message, Mr. Catano. You're the son of the Pennsylvania Dutchman who inherited the Van Horne Estates, aren't you? Cornelius Van Horne is my father. Well, tell your father that both he and his son are better stay out of my business. Anything that has to do with Mr. Dixiana is my business, sir. And just how do you reckon that? Are you in love with her? That's not a matter to discuss with you. My boy, I don't think you should be so serious about a girl you treat so lightly. Sir? Have you proposed marriage? Have your parents met the young lady? Why, no, sir. Well, perhaps they have different customs where you come from. But in New Orleans, these little formalities are observed by gentlemen. However, I don't think Dixiana will be upset. You keep her name out of this, Horne. Oh, there's one formality I do know about. It has to do with a glove across the face. I see you have the glove, Mr. Van Horne. Gentlemen. The cause of this scandalous behavior. This gambler said something about you I resent. Mr. Montague said something about me? I'm sure, Mr. Montague couldn't possibly see anything about me that anyone could resent. You're quite right, Miss Dixiana. It was a mistake. No, it wasn't. I insist. You're quite mistaken, and any impression you might have had to the contrary is wrong. And I take this occasion to wish you good evening. Good evening. What happened? Dixiana, do you think that I'm a gentleman? Do you think I'm serious? I think you're very, very serious. Dixiana, I adore you. You mustn't kiss the customers. What's the meaning of this? This lovely lady has promised to be my wife. What? Dixiana, you're not going to bust up our trio, are you? But I just... Now, ain't that sickening? You can get a wife anywhere. Or where are we going to get another baby ostrich? Yes, and the only woman slimming off is a Spanish dancer, 80 years old. Can you imagine the customers when we break open the egg and out comes that old Spanish omelet? Makes me feel as if I want to bust into tears. Oh, Pee-wee. I am going to bust into them. No, Pee-wee. Cheer up, little fellow. I'm taking Dixiana to the plantation with me. You boys come along for a visit. No. Gently, Pee-wee, gently. Home cooking, three meals a day. The old hat says, wear me high. But the stomach whispers chicken and okay. Please say yes, Pee-wee. No. Aw, I'd be so afraid with all those grand people. You'll never turn me down yet. Please say yes. All right. Yeah, that's more like it. I'll go and tell all the folks. Folks, folks, listen, there's nothing new for you. Cupid. Yes, Mr. Carl? Ride to the plantation and tell my father I'm bringing three distinguished guests. And Cupid, tell him that I'm bringing him a daughter. What's all the commotion? The commotion is me. Because I'm going to marry the bread. No woman would ever marry a man if she could see him asleep first. Wake up, you sealion. Wake up. Do I have to? Oh, I just had the most wonderful dream. Oh, tell me, darling. What was it? Oh, it was beautiful. Tell me, tell me. I dreamed? Yes. I dreamed I was once again a widower. What? You Lord Chesterfield? I'll make myself a widow unless you stop snoring and learn better manners. What's the matter with my manners? Matter. Well, you don't even look like a gentleman. Well, do you think you look like a lady? No, I will tonight. Oh, why can't you act like these southern men full of grace and fire? I got no fire. I'm from Philadelphia. And that's what's the matter with you? You're so dull. You're so cold. You, you ill. Say, now, listen, maybe I'm an ill, but I refuse to act like a monkey. Why not? Well, every time I meet a lady, you might as well bow down and kiss her hand. And I hate the smell of soap. Now, you listen to me. I've been listening to you for years. You listen to me. I'm tickin' scientists. Shut up. A clumsiest, most awkward Dutchman that ever owned a plantation. Well, that's all right. I didn't mind I owned a plantation. The place was wished on me by a will. Well, you've got it. And you've got to live up to it. Get out of bed. I will when I get good and ready. And I'm ready right now. Say, for why I should get up so early? For your lesson in manners. Manners. Is this manners? Can't you wait till I get some clothes on? How can a man take manners lessons in the disjubilee? Come here. Cornelius? No, my birdie dear. Don't lose your temper. There. Now, I am a lady. That would be impossible. No, no. I am a lady being introduced to you. Ah, somebody else. Well, that's different. Madam, I have the honor of presenting Mr. Van Horn. Now, the lady stretches out a languid hand and she says, Sir, I am delighted. Well, she should be. No, no, no. Now, now, now. No. Bow deeply. Oh, from here? Yes. Stately. Yes, that's fine. Kiss her hand and say, Madam, the honor is mine. And may I extend a welcome to the fairest lady who has ever graced my home. I got to say all that? Yes. Well, I'm fired. Madam? No, Madam. Damn, damn, damn. Don't let the servants he is swayed. Oh, you, you treetod. You horsefly. You, you. I don't know what to call you. Well, let's see. How about a woodtick? Who's that? It's Cuban, madam, with great news. Great news? That must be from my son, Carl. He's a great tidier. Yes. Master Carl has picked himself a bride. A bride? And it's fetching over here today. Where did he pick her? And who is she? What's her name? How do you speak me to know there? Hmm. All I know. She's mighty fine and sweet. Oh, the Cornelius, she might be anybody for all I know. Yeah, well, that's all right. You don't know such a word, you see. I've known my son since infantry. And I'll bet you that as a wife picker, he's a mass pastor. A postman, a pastor. He's a past master. And Master Carl is bringing to this thing with Jim and all. Oh, gentlemen, Lord Cornelius, we may get into high society at last. May you then say you leave with my son Carl and we're in now. You hear what he said? Yes. Carl's bringing some aristocratics here. We're getting populated. I must give some orders. No, no. I'll give the orders. Yeah? All right. You give the orders. But I'll still wear pants. What are you going to say to her? I'll say, lady, if my son ain't a better picker than I was, you must be terrible. Oh, madam, may I present my future wife, Miss Dixiana Caldwell? The honor is very good. You're mighty, Carl, madam, Dan Horn. And this is my father. Dad, I brought you a daughter. I hope you're going to like me, sir. Like you? I'm going to love you. Dixiana, this is Venus. She will serve you well. And now, may I be allowed to escort you to your room? I'm afraid you won't find it as rare as some are. Oh, may I present Mr. Ginger Dandy and Little Peewee? Welcome, sirs, to our mother's home. Gentlemen, this is my father. Oh, glad to meet you, sir, glad to meet you, sir. You're welcome. You're welcome. Would you come in a hour? Yes, yes, nice place. Oh, Dad. Huh? Oh, excuse me. Sure. Go on ahead, go on ahead. Well, Dad, Carl, she's wonderful. Do you think Madam Van Horn will like you? I don't care whether she likes her or not. Say, listen, don't you think we ought to make a little celebratin' in honor of the occasion? Absolutely. We could have a few jolips. Maybe by eight o'clock, I'll be numb enough to enjoy the party. Ah, splendid, splendid, splendid. Hey, why did you take the wheels off the covered wagon? That's old family bed, sir. Does all the family sleep in that at one time? You sure is calm, good sir. Hey, is she sleeping or two? She's been dead for 40 years. 40 years? Well, we won't have to move over for her. If you gentlemen need anything, just ring. Yeah, just a moment, just a moment. Here, uh, here's two dollars for you, son. Thank you, sir. Yes, sir. Uh, Jasper, how would you like to make two dollars more? All right, sir. Now, the idea is that we will bet you two dollars that you can't pick up these three cigars one at a time off the floor without saying ouch. That's a whole lot easier than shooting crabs, just charming, sir. Here, uh, I'll hold the stakes. Now, the cigars are placed. Pick them off the floor one at a time without saying ouch. Just watch, sir. That's one. That's one. That's two. You're doing fine. It never misses. It never misses. Say, Ginger, I wonder how people who live in houses like this pass their time. It's a lucky thing for us that Dixiana's married into this. Gee. You know, I'd love to marry myself into a bed like this. What are you looking for? Some place to put these ashes. Throw them on the floor. Throw them on the floor? Not me. You know, may not know it, but I've decided that I'm going to be an old, southern gentleman. Well, why can't you say so? Isn't that a dandy? Certainly is. That's the biggest one I've ever seen. I'll bet you that thing is over 100 years old. Easy. That's what we call an old antiquity. Hello, boys. Everything all right? You got some wonderful things here. Yeah, well, you see, everything in this room belonged to my Aunt Sophie. Aunt Sophie? That's a picture. Oh, is that Aunt Sophie? Yes, sir. She lived in, uh, Pennsylvania. She died of throat trouble. Oh, they hunter, huh? I guess so. She was high strong. Ha, ha, ha. That's good. That's good. Did you say that everything in this room belonged to Aunt Sophie? Sure, everything. She brought it with her from Chambersburg. She must have been a very nervous woman. Oh, ha, ha, ha. Oh, with that? Kind of different, isn't it? Yes, yes, yes, yes. Unusual. Ha, ha, ha. The quaint is the word. Quaint, quaint. And useful? Yes, useful. Not now. It's too old. It won't catch anything anymore. She was to be all right for a seat. They can't even get in now. It's so bent here, see? Oh, yes, yes. It's solid. Must to work. It's all crooked. How's the duck? Oh, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. It's like a 4K, isn't it? Here we are. You're a good helser. No, you're a good helser. No, no, no. You're a good helser. No, no, you're a good helser. Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute. You know, I'm not feeling so good either, you know. Here. You're a helser. You're a good helser. How it is, eh? Now, let's go up and drink it. Let's go up and drink it. Here's the answer. And go. Here's the answer, then. Hey, you boys know any stories? I love a good, risky story. And I love games. I like games. Do you like gambling games? Any kind of games. I don't care what it is. Have you ever heard of the game of the three cigars? No. Let's play it. It's a game where you've got to put up money. I'm a sport. He's a sport? Who will give him the answer? Listen. You hold the stakes and I'll give him the answer. I'll bet you $5 that you can't pick up three cigars without getting kicked out. The idea of the game is that we'll bet you $5 that you can't pick up these three cigars one at a time without saying ouch. Ouch? Oh, you see ouch, yes. A child will go to work. That's my fine. And there are the cigars. Now, why doesn't that let me stand on you? I've got to pick these up one at a time. One at a time? Not say ouch. Not say ouch. Easy. One. That's one. It's a graph round here. Two? There's two. There's two. I call it by the arm. No, no. Now it's a test. This is the test. This is the easiest one. Oh, yes, yes. I'll do it quick. This is a pleasure. I told you. My husband, Cornelius. Uh, madam, the honor is mine. Don't kiss his hand. Shake it. Oh, excuse me. I'm much obliged to meet you, Mr. Pointer. Colonel Pointer? That's all right. I'll call him a general if he wants me to. Anyhow, you're welcome. I am delighted to meet your acquaintance. The pleasure is mutual. I assure you so. Thank you. And now I think I'll go and find my son Carl because I'm sure his fiance is not ready to come down. Don't hurry, Mama. Give Carl a chance to say goodbye to his friends. That is the last indiscutible right of the bachelor. Oh, yes. You know, it took Cornelius a whole week to say goodbye to his bachelor friends. Oh, didn't you, darling? Yes, I did. If I'd had any sense, I'd have been saying goodbye yet. Once so young as Carl must give up all his bachelor fun. You won't make any sympathy on me when you've met her. Every soldier's brave before going into battle. Dixiana, Dixiana, I want you to meet our most distinguished guest, Colonel Porter. I am glad to meet the most distinguished guest whose praises are on every tongue. Oh, you're entirely too kind, Colonel Porter. No, he isn't, Dixiana. Dixiana, your name is as pretty as your eyes, my dear. You're quite right, Colonel. Take these two gentlemen along while you come down. Yes. It'll surprise me if they make it at all. Oh, I'd have kept you waiting. Hi-fi, you vain creatures. You've been drinking. No, drinking. You're forgiven. Oh, aren't you amusing? I adore young men. I should have married someone near my old age. She adores young men. Show her the cigar game. Don't she know the game, the three cigars? She sure she don't know it? Madam. Yes? Do you know the cigar game? The cigar game? That strikes my fancy. She knows it. Why? She said it strikes her fancy. Please try and tell him she doesn't mean it that way. Is it something new? New. No, it's very old. As a matter of fact, it's an old Indian game. Indian? Yeah. The kick-a-poo. The kick-a-poo. Come on, let's you and I play Indian. I love it. It's the game where you've got to put up money. I love it. How much? Five dollars. No, not exciting enough. Make it 25. Make it 50. Here, take it all. It's worth it. Now, now. Who's going to give her the answer? The one with the biggest feet. Suppose you give her the answer? I'd love to, but I got fallen arches. Well, be me. You're elected. You'll have to give her the answer. Well, I'll try my best. Now, I'll hold the stake. Now, the idea of the game is that we're going to bet you that you can't pick up these three cigars off the floor one at a time without saying ouch. The money's mine. I never said ouch in my life. You're going to ouch like you never ouch before. Now, birdie, remember, bow deeply. And pick them up one at a time. Watch me. One, that's splendid. Splendid. Five. Number two, if you please. Number two. He's ridiculous. So ridiculous I'm laughing now? Not yet. Splendid. That's two. Now comes the final test. Number three. Number three. I don't get it. I can't wait. Why didn't you give her the answer when she picked up the second cigar? From now on, we'll play this game in a vacant lot. Are you sure you don't want to go in for supper? Not yet, honey. You stole this beauty. Well, you don't have to hurry. It's going to be yours for the rest of your life. I wish it was more. Gee, I shouldn't have done it. You should have let Dixiana do it. Dixiana? Sir Circus. Circus people in my house. Yes, Madam Van Horn. You see, Carl thought, but... Oh, so this is your doings. I might have known you'd select a bride She's better than you are, madam. Shut up! Get out of my house! You won't put her out of here. No, I won't, but the servants will. Gee, Dixiana, I'm awful sorry. Not only did you let the cat out of the bag, but all the kittens. Oh, isn't his fault, Ginger? What are we going to do now? Get the coach. We're going to get away from here as soon as ever we can. But where are we going? Back to the circus where we belong. But, Dixiana... Don't you know orders when you hear them? Come on! Please! Dixiana, how soon can you be ready to leave here? What do you mean? Just as soon as I can pack my things, we're going away together. No, we aren't. I'm not going to come between you and your family. Please don't argue with me, honey. My mind's made up. But, Carl, I... Carl! What are you going to do? Let Dixiana tell you. He wants to take me away from here. He says he's leaving here forever. Forever? But I won't let him do that. I'm going away. But by myself. Where? I'm not telling anybody. Because I don't want him to follow me. See him again. What? Don't you love my boy? Mighty nice of you, sir. You had a circus girl cry on your shoulder. I wish I could do something to show my respect for the finest lady that ever graced my home. Dear, can I have the great honor to show you to your carriage? Take your hand of his arm, you hussy. Now, that's enough of you. For once my foot goes down, this house belongs to me. When a few want to keep on living in it, you've got to respect my friends. Mr. Van Horn, it has been a great pleasure to know this charming lady. May I have the honor of opening her cage door? This is marvelous luck. Don't take them back. What? I need them in my circus. Do as you're told, you'll have no circus. Three stars, count them. One, two, three. My little old sore, that certainly smells good. Strike up the band and give three chairs for Pee Wee, Ginger, and Little Dick Sienna. Well, Mr. Cortana, we've come back. I don't want you. I've made other arrangements. I tell you, I'm done with you. He means it. What are we going to do now? Look for another job. There aren't any other jobs. It's all my fault. Oh, what will I do? What will I do? You can work for me. In a gambling house? Well, I have entertainment rooms. And I have a heart. Does your heart beat for one or for three? Three of a kind. You win. We're going to give you the best show you ever saw. Well, honey, what do you say? I'm sorry, but I never worked in a gambling house. I never thought of that. The job's over. Yeah, we couldn't let her take it. We couldn't let her take it. Wait a minute, boys. You stuck with me. Thank you, Mr. Montague. We'll be there tonight. I'll give you a square deal. Now, Dixianna, are you sure you're not going to be sorry? Honey, don't worry about that. We don't want you to do anything you don't want to do, you know. But listen, we've got to change our routine. I'll tell you how we open the act. She sings Dixianna to open the act. Yeah, yeah. Then we do something. What are you boys going to do? Well, we've got to change it. We can't do the Auschwitz Act. I don't understand. You make Caetana throw them down, and then you pick them up. If Dixianna's at my place, young Van Horn will follow. He can't keep away from them. Then you'll have plenty of reason for a duel. He's worth more to me alive than dead just now. That boy may take matters into his own hands and want to fight. And he'll take matters into our hands. Just as we did with Phillip Van Horn? Keep quiet. You're the only one that knows the truth about that, D'you. And if you talk, I'll close your mouth with a bullet from the same pistol. I won't talk, don't be afraid. All right, Mr. Blondel. Good evening, folks. Mr. Love's your best. Well, you change everything but your affection for me. You... Hello, Nanny, what's your hurry? I've got it, and I'll be down in five minutes. You bet I will. Drinking tonight, Pee Wee. Oh, are you ginger? Who, me? Oh, no, no. Are you sure you're not waiting for anybody? As a matter of fact, I'm just leaving. Good night, Pee Wee. Good night, Ginger. Good night, Ginger. Good night, Pee Wee. There's your wine, sir. There's your change. One moment. For you, boy. Thank you. A little Nanny. See the wine I got for you? Oh, you're always thinking of me. You know why, honey? It's because I love you. Oh, you don't love me anymore than Pee Wee does. Pee Wee. Nanny, when you're sitting next to a great big handsome animal like yours truly, why refer to an insignificant little Nanny? Nanny. Now, that's what I call a true friend. I knew you were there all the time. Hello, darling. Yeah, I just been killing time waiting for you. Me and Nanny are sweethearts. She wants to be alone with me. You're a fine pal, you are. You got my ties, you got my socks, you got my clothes, and now you're trying to get my Nanny. Come on, honey. This is a private conversation. Who's going to take you to the Mardi Gras? I am going to take her to the Mardi Gras. So I am going to take her to the Mardi Gras. Don't I have something to say about this? You're trying to take her away from me. You're low down so-and-so and this and that. Sir, I reckon you all are not aware, sir, that you cannot speak that away to an old Southern gentleman. From South Brooklyn. My grandfather, Miss Nanny, my grandfather was an old Southern planter. A Southern planter? He was an undertaker in Alabama. You get out of here before I plant you. Although your objectionable language calls for us, sir, I reckon at the present time I will not challenge you to a duel. A duel? Stop your sex till we meet again at the Mardi Gras. Honey, you'll meet me, won't you? I'm not telling who I'm going to meet. Oh, but baby, nobody loves you like I do. Oh, ginger says that. And so do all the rest. But, honey, when I say it, I mean it. You're the first girl I ever wanted to be my first wife. Oh, Pee-wee. Though I'm rather sentimental, girls have made me very shy. And I thought love was accidental. Never felt that I was falling till I took you by the hand. Oh, sincere and seedy. Miss Dixiana, I'll make you forget the insults giving you up the river. Possibly then it's because I want to make you remember me. You tell the other girls they can have the night off for the coronation. According to the master's ceremonies, they should be here for half an hour. Sir, the remarks of you all are ridiculous. Since this nanny showed a preference for my humble self, the green-eyed monster has been chowing at you, mighty hardstar. She loves me best. All forces me to laugh up my sleeve, sir. You'll be laughing up your pants leg if you don't let her alone. Suppose we let the fair object of our mutual passions decide for herself, sir. Nanny, tell us who you love best. I got the duel. We're going to fight one right now. I'm afraid I can't fight a duel unless I've been properly insulted, sir. Her is impossible. Do I have to tell you how to insult me? It can't be done. To challenge a southern gentleman to a duel, sir, he must be smitten across the face. My one big moment, you... It must be done with a glove, sir. You know darned well that I haven't got a glove. Allow me to proper one of Miss Nanny's. Now you're insulted. Oh, me insulted by that little bitty glove? Ridiculous, sir. You say that you must be insulted by a glove. I insist upon a glove, sir. Wait until I polish this on your snoot. Are you insulted? I'm afraid you're going to find me a very hard man to insult. But don't get discouraged, lad. Must be insulted. But you're getting hot. You almost had me, then. I'll tell you what we'll do. Let's call the whole thing off. And, sir, I accept the nomination. We'll fight at from three to sixty-one and a half paces. We've got the half-second. Boy, would you like to make fifteen cents? Yes, sir. This is my second. Uh-huh. Your second. He looks more like a half an hour to me. Is this my second? Well, he's more of a split-second. What am you going to use for weapons? Weapons? Why, I reckon we'll just hold down some of the artillery on yonder wall. Choose your weapon. What kind of a second are you? On guard. On guard. On guard. He's out there with Blondell and Montague. And when they get through with him... They're all going to do anything to him if I can help it. After what his family did to you? I don't care what his family did to me. He wants to gamble. I've seen cards lead to anger. Do the duel and oaks. Get the humiliation of leaving his father's plantation. You're wonderful when you want revenge. Revenge? That's it. Will you give it to me? I'll give you anything. And let you play him. Say you're marvelous. And I thought you were a little sink. Someday you'll find out what I am. That'll give me a moment alone. No words to tell you how I adore you. Get the cards. Dixiana! What are you doing here? More lucky at love. Lucky at cards, they say. I'm going to find out. To test who's love. Yours? Then why not play me? Wouldn't that be a more certain test? Would you let cards decide that? Why not? I'm being cheated. Cheated? Are you Dixiana? Really, Dixiana? Must I lose you to? A man is a fool. A woman can change. Always show their real faces. Then why not take another chance with me? I will. If I drove you, you won all I had with me. Then you'll quit. Not yet. Mr. Montague, may I have a word with you? Only let me have 10,000. I'm sorry, but we extend no credit here. I can sign an IOU. You know my father? Your father? Well, perhaps... Perhaps what? Of course, if you could give me your father's signature. Oh, no, I couldn't. Are you going to let her win? But I couldn't buy... I'll hold the draft until you win it back. You'll hold it? You promise? Oh, sure. I can't afford to lose such a good client. What is she talking about? She wants to know where you got it. How is it in Indians? How many Indians? Indians coming up the hill. I said to that old squaw coming up the hill. I said to her, I said, look at your Gladys. But you know she didn't pay any attention to me. So I took old Gladys with the Tommy Hawk and I let her back to headquarters where the government gave me this medal and a dishonorable discharge. You mustn't run away, you mustn't run away. I haven't told you where I got that medal yet. Jumping over Niagara Falls. For jumping back. And that? For jumping back. You'd be surprised. Who's the payment? Oh, you schlemier. But if I knew any more names, you'd be honored. I saw what happened in the Gampland place. I was there. Then you saw her cheat me. Yes, I saw her cheat you, heaven bless her. Then I saw her tear up that forge that I checked you made. Tear it up? Yeah. Well, see if you can understand this. Why did Dixie Anna leave the plantation? I don't know. You don't know? Why did she push herself between you and Montague? How can I tell? Of course you can. My language goes in the bankruptcy. Because she loves you. She loves me? Yes. Now you go and find her. Bring her back to the plantation and if you don't bring her back, don't come back here, son. You'll help me, dad. My boy. You're the only all-owing of the Prince of Darkness and the Queen of Light. Only this time there won't be any regal rules. Only one fitting vestment for such a queen. Why can't you surrender as magnificently as you fight? Take your hands off me. How can I? Don't you know I love you? Don't you know there isn't anything I wouldn't give for you? Let me take you away from New Orleans. Let me take you to Paris, to Italy, to all the gay places of the world. I'll show you the beautiful women of every country. And when you've seen them all, I'll make you more beautiful than any of them. And then I'll make you mine. Of course this means only one thing. I'm ready to go to the dueling oaks right now. Let me remind you, the place and choice of weapons is mine. Anything. Well, according to the code... Your code, what does it mean to me? You stay out of this, Dixie Anna. Your pleasure, Mr. Mornigue. Pistols in my courtyard in 15 minutes. In 15 minutes. Now get out. It'll be murder. That's what's in my heart. Listen to me. Two years ago, he killed your uncle in just such a duel. Then I'll have a double revenge. No, you won't. Can't you see he provoked your uncle just so he could name the place and have the choice of weapons? And something happened. What? They were never able to find a spot where your uncle's bullet hit the wall. Oh, that has a hundred explanations. No. Hey, do it. Love you. That's why I must fight. Supposedly killed you. What would I do? Go on all my life loving you and knowing you were dead. But suppose you went on all your life knowing that I was a coward. No man's a coward who avoids being murdered? Now, Dixie Anna, let me take these things off. Carl, I'm away with me. What do you mean? No. Dixie Anna. Oh, my darling, I want to feel you close to me like this. I want your arms around me. Your kiss is burning. Take me away. Anywhere. Paris, Italy. Kiss me. Dixie Anna, in case anything happens to me, give that to my father. All right, dear. Make sure you load them correctly. And you want to kill him? I'm going to kill him. You know, Montague killed his uncle in a duel two years ago. If you represent Mr. Van Horn in this matter. I do, sir. Look at you up on there. Isn't there some way we can get young Van Horn out of this? Yes, with one of these. As soon as you've witnessed their loading. You care to inspect them before I offer him his choice? Dixie Anna. Oh, I thought that you were... Dixie Anna. That's the matter with those pistols? Then why are you afraid to have them weigh? Yeah. That's Mr. Van Buell. The same way you can account for the death of your uncle. Keep still. Got the three cigars without hollering out. You invented the game of the three cigars? Yeah. This has a new point. Montague conceded. I'll take that bet. All right. Now, uh... Spare me the details, Lance. Spare me the details. That's one. That's one. Aren't you standing too far away? Oh, no. That's two. That's two. Pick up the third cigar. Good eye trouble you for my sword.
