Kiss and Tell1945

Lt. Lenny Archer:
Look, you've got to help me. Can you keep a secret?

Corliss Archer:
Cross my heart.

Lt. Lenny Archer:
Mildred and I were married this morning.

Corliss Archer:
Oh, Lenny! What are Mom and Daddy going to say?

Lt. Lenny Archer:
Well, I was going to break it to them tonight, but now with this new row going -

Corliss Archer:
Does anybody know? About your being married, I mean?

Lt. Lenny Archer:
Not a soul. We drove across the state line to Windham Ferry and dug up a justice of the peace. He and his wife are the only ones who know. Except you.

Corliss Archer:
But you're gonna tell Mom and Daddy, aren't you?

Lt. Lenny Archer:
I don't know. I'm afraid now her parents might move heaven and earth to have it annulled.

Corliss Archer:
Could they?

Lt. Lenny Archer:
I guess they could. She lied about her age on the license.

Corliss Archer:
Golly. How awful

Lt. Lenny Archer:
Awful is right.

Corliss Archer:
Gosh. That makes Mildred my sister-in-law, doesn't it?
