SCENE 1

In order to save their own lives from the gangsters, Jerry and Joe disguise themselves as women and accept a job for a couple of girl musicians traveling to Florida. They also adopt new names: “Josephine” (Joe) and “Daphne” (Jerry). As soon as the band arrives in Florida, one of the oil-magnate millionaires, Osgood, is immediately smitten by “Daphne”.

Osgood: Pardon me, Miss. May I?

Jerry: Help yourself.

Osgood: I’m Osgood Fielding III.

Jerry: (quips) I’m Cinderella II.

Osgood: If there’s one thing I admire, it’s a girl with a 1)shapely ankle.

Jerry: Me too. Bye bye.

Osgood: Let me carry one of the instruments.

Jerry: Oh thank you. Aren’t you a sweetheart.

Osgood: Certainly is 2)delightful having young blood around here.

Jerry: Well, personally I’m type O.

Osgood: You know, I’ve always been 3)fascinated by show business.

Jerry: Is that so?

Osgood: Yes. As a matter of fact, it’s cost my family quite a bit of money.

Jerry: Oh, you invest in shows?

Osgood: 4)Showgirls. I’ve been married seven or eight times.

Jerry: You’re not sure?

Osgood: Mama is keeping score. Frankly, she’s getting rather 5)annoyed with me.

Jerry: Wouldn’t wonder.

Osgood: So this year when the George White scandal opened, she packed me off to Florida. Right now she thinks I’m out there on my 6)yacht. Ha, ha, deep sea fishing.

Jerry: Well, pull in your reel, Mr. Fielding. You’re 7)barking up the wrong fish.
