Benson, have you seen my vase?
I can't find it anywhere.
Miss Kraus, don't do that.
Oh, do you have a headache?
(CABINET DOOR SLAMMING)
Is it my fault?
(CABINET DOOR SLAMMING)
Here, Benson, drink this. You'll feel better.
Good morning.
It's certainly another beautiful day.
So how about some coffee, Benson?
I tried some. It didn't work.
A little cranky this morning, are we?
He was out last night with an old Army buddy.
Didn't get in till after midnight.
After 3:00.
I saw him chasing my dogs across the lawn yelling,
"Death before dishonor."
Yeah, well, Eddie and I went through a lot together.
Korea? A bottle of sake.
I served in Korea. Naval Intelligence.
Well, we won anyway.
I think it's great that you and Eddie
have stayed in touch ever since Korea.
Well, we were pretty close.
Close? From what I hear, he saved your life.
We all make mistakes.
Governor, we have a pretty full agenda today.
Right.
Say, Taylor, were you ever in the military?
Taylor? Please.
As a matter of fact, I was in the service.
Oh, sorry.
I was in Special Services.
I led the dance band at Fort Dix.
Marcy, were you with Eddie and me last night?
Well, of course I wasn't.
Don't you think you'd remember if I was there?
Well, I don't remember much
after Eddie and I captured the Japanese waiter.
I like him.
So do I.
I'm going out to dinner with him tonight.
You are? Mmm-hmm.
That's terrific. Yeah.
I've been trying to get Eddie to ask you out
ever since he came to town last Wednesday.
It took that long, huh?
You have a lot in common.
What? Me.
So, where you going? I don't know.
Okay, I'll have him pick you up at 7:00.
Wear your green dress, it's great for your eyes.
You'll have drinks at Pierre's.
what we'd like to order?
Well, I don't want to be pushy.
Just let me know how it goes, okay?
or can it wait till morning?
Get out of here.
Hi, Benson. Hi, Katie.
You forgot.
No, I wouldn't forget. Happy birthday, sugar.
Benson, it's not my birthday.
You promised you'd start jogging with me today.
I did?
Oh, well, I don't think I can do it today.
Why not?
Well, I woke up all achey.
My head hurts, my stomach's upset.
I think I'm coming down with something.
Sounds like a hangover to me.
The perfect strike,
all ten pins and the pin boy.
What's so funny?
You guys been looking at my paycheck?
Oh, that's a wonderful story. And it's true.
Marcy's just finishing up.
I see you've introduced yourself.
Are you feeling better, Benson?
Yeah, I think so.
I can blink both eyes at the same time.
Excuse me, Governor,
but the Lieutenant Governor's on the phone.
I guess the ninth race is over.
Oh, I'll take it.
Eddie, it's been a real pleasure meeting you.
Not at all. No sense having more than you need.
Hi. Hi.
It shouldn't be much longer.
Oh, take your time.
I don't mind waiting when it's for you.
Okay.
I told you to ask her out, not drool on her.
Control yourself, this is a governor's mansion.
Last night you told me this was your place.
Last night I thought it was.
Why didn't you tell me you asked Marcy out?
I told you last night. No, you didn't.
Yeah, I picked up the check.
Well, anyway, I admire your taste.
Marcy is a really good lady.
You know, you wouldn't have gotten anywhere, though,
if I hadn't put in a good word for you.
Oh, I really appreciate it.
So naturally, she's gonna be a little cautious.
Benson, we're only having dinner.
Which reminds me, have you seen my shoes?
