"You sent for me sir." "Yes Lieutenant, I've got a job for you." "This has to go to General Hale as fast as a man can carry it." "General Hale sir?" "But he's at the front." "You'll have a car and the best driver available." "Well I'm on leave sir." "This is no detail for a tin soldier Reed." "Perhaps I've made a mistake." "No mistake as far as I'm concerned sir." "What are the orders?" "You will leave immediately," "Captain Jones will attend to the details of your escort." "Yes sir." "Hello big boy." "What's on your mind?" "I came to say goodbye to Eileen." "Well if you're wise, you'll say goodbye to mom first." "Say why did pops send for you?" "Oh he gave me some very important papers to deliver to General Hale at the front." "Oh yeah, well that's sorta dangerous ain't it?" "Well it's not exactly a health resort." "And if you deliver 'em, it'll make you a hero?" "Oh yes, a great big hero." "Ya know Jim I like you." "You have such an open faith." "Thanks, I think you'll be very charming when you grow up." "Oh you don't know the half of it." "You're pretty clever aren't you?" "Sure I'm clever, say, maybe you're my big romance." "What's that?" "Well I mean, uh, is it against army regulations for a Colonel's daughter to get a yearn for a Lieutenant?" "What are you talking about?" "Oh Jimbo," "(speaking in foreign language)" "They are so snappy, so handsome." "Me like me big boy." "Say what are you tryin' to do, flirt with me?"

"And it is good?" "Is it good, boy it's golden." "But I got something much more exciting than perfume." "What is that?" "Papers, important ones." "I stole 'em from Jim." "Does Jim know this?" "Certainly not." "But I've got to get these papers started to the front before he finds out they're gone." "And you think you can do it?" "Sure, if you'll help me." "Now listen, my boyfriend will do anything I tell him to." "But his buddy is a hard nut, got me?" "The buddy with the goggles, he is for me." "Great." "Now you work on him, and we'll get 'em both back to the front and these papers go with them." "I will convince Gilbert." "And I will convince Tommy." "Somebody paging me?" "My angel." "My sugar." "My goodness." "Are you two at it again?" "Oh re garde, never was I so glad to behold anyone." "There's a catch in this somewhere, they're too glad to see us." "Annette isn't, she loves me." "Misuer, you have the chance to do two ladies a great favor." "Uh oh, here it comes." "And at the same time, do something grand for your country." "Mmm hmm, I don't like the way they're leading up to this." "Uh what will you girls have?" "Oh it is nothing." "Oh tis nothing." "Well we can handle it." "All you have to do is deliver this to General Hale." "Now why didn't you say so in the first place?" "You see we're great fans of General Hale." "And his partner." "His partner?" "Yeah, you don't mean to tell me that you've never heard of Hale and Hockey?" "(laughing)" "Oh yes yes." "We'd love to see dear old Hale again." "Where abouts in Paris is he?" "Ah General Hale is at the front." "Oh he's at the front?" "Oh he's at the front." "Hmm, it must be some other Hale." "Yes well, so long girls." "We'll see ya around." "Oh you're not gonna back out?" "Back out, no, I'm gonna walk right out face forward." "You see, our schedule is so filled up for the day." "Oh but this will make you a great big hero."

"He aspire, do you not?" "Ma'am?" "You aspire." "Yeah little under hand." "Ah." "Aw Tommy, you'll do it won't ya?" "Sure I will." "But I want Gilbert to go with me." "You and Tommy go in there, so I can persuade Gilbert to be a hero too." "Ha ha, you might but, it will be difficult in broad daylight." "You're not gonna disappoint me are ya?" "Not for anything in the world sweetheart." "If you take these papers to General Hale, maybe dad 'll forgive ya for being awol." "Gee I'm ashamed a myself." "Ya know I'm an awful sap." "But since I met you, everything has changed." "I wanna be what you want me to be." "My hero." "First you must tell me all about yourself." "Well I'm afraid that would take a long time, a long time." "For instance, I spent all last summer shooting tigers in Africa." "But misuer, there are no tigers in Africa." "I know it, I killed 'em all." "(laughing)" "Come sit over here." "Yes, yes, let's, let's." "Hi ho." "Ya know they laughed at me when I sat down." "But when I begin to play." "(laughing) my goodness, what well developed arms you have."

"(laughing)" "Well I tell you, I come from nice family too." "My father was born in Moscow, my mother was born in Vladivostok, and I was born in St. Petersburg." "Is that so." "Funny how ya all got together." "(laughing)" "Ah." "Little oh father Roy." "No it's his father." "Look, look he's brought along a hunk a ginger ale." "Ginger ale, that's champagne, an it has one big kick." "Yeah, is that so?" "Stick around son, stick around." "You know Gilbert, when I bring champagne," "I never know what I am doing."

"I won't need you anymore son," "I won't need you anymore." "(laughing)" "By the way Olga, where did you say you were from?" "St. Petersburg." "St. Petersburg." "Now that is a coincidence."

"I'll go to Hale for you anytime baby, anytime." "Oh I knew you would deliver the papers." "What's that?" "You're going to take the papers to the front." "Honey you lied to me about that champagne, you know what you were doin'." "Now I know that you love me." "Oh love ya, honey I'm mad about ya." "I'm mad about ya." "To me, you're a beautiful spite, sprite, sprite, sprite." "Oh why do I ever vent like this?" "Why do I ever vent." "(playful music)" "You know that I haven't effervesced like this in years?"

"You just about summed it all up, honey, you summed it all up." "Oh Tommy, you must be careful." "Don't worry about me baby, goodbye." "And believe me honey, nothin's gonna stop us from takin' those papers to General Hale." "Farewell, farewell, you have no idea how I'm gonna miss ya honey." "(phone ringing)" "Hello." "Sir." "Oh yes sir, yes sir." "General Hale for you sir." "Tenth time today." "Yes General, yes General." "Yes General, darn it I'm a yes man." "Positively General, those papers are on the way to you now." "There's something you ought to know." "May we see you privately?" "No." "This office is for army business, not for family disputes." "Well, what have you got to say, go ahead, debrief." "Will debrief." "Annette stole the papers you gave Jim to take to General Hale." "What?" "What did you do with them?" "Don't worry dad, they'll get to General Hale." "I gave 'em to two a the most wonderful boys in the world." "Gilbert Simkins and Tommy Turner." "What you gave them to scallywags" "I've been chasing for ten days?" "Why, will you tell me why?" "Cause I'm in love with Tommy Turner." "Dear gods and great Scott." "And if he gets those papers to General Hale you'll forgive him, an then he can marry me." "Forgive him, I'll have him shot at sunrise." "At first the boys didn't wanna do it but your girlfriend Olga helped me to coax them." "Well very obliging." "What a family, what a family." "Well honest pop, I didn't mean any harm." "Captain Jones." "(shouting from a distance)" "Captain Jones." "Yes sir." "Those two men Gilbert Simkins and Tommy Turner have the General's papers."

"(explosions)" "Where can we find General Hale sir?" "General Hale is farther front." "How do we get to the front line sir?" "The only way is through that communicator transfer." "What do you want to see General Hale about?" "We have important papers for him sir." "You're Simkins and Turner?" "Oh Captain, how'd ya guess?" "(explosions)" "The communicating trench has just been blown sir." "They can't get through now Captain." "Somebody 'll have to crawl through that barrage." "I can't order a man to go through that inferno." "Gimme those papers." "I'll call for volunteers." "Men," "I have some very important papers that must reach General Hale at once." "Communication to the front line trenches is cut off." "I want a volunteer for this dangerous job." "Say no more Captain, say no more." "(explosions)" "Simkins, you're made of the right stuff." "It's going to take a lot of guts to get through there." "I understand exactly Captain, an I've got just the man for ya." "(explosions)" "Private Turner sir, the nerviest man in the whole army."

"I was just thinking, what we could do to you for this." "Colonel, what I wanna know is, why did you treat little Olga so mean?" "You know I was never so- motormen glove." "General Hale's plans." "Yeah." "Where did you get them?" "I found 'em right here on my desk." "What does this mean?" "It means that you sent Olga's note to the General instead a the plans."
