what's your situation?
Explain it to me.
I'm going on a long trip.
And I have the opportunity
to buy some clothes today.
- Money is no object.
- Good. Where are you going?
Tonight I'm going out in the city.
- Nice places?
- I hope so.
- Tomorrow I fly to L.A.
- First class?
Yeah.
Then I'm sailing to the South Pacific.
- Hawaii?
- No, an unknown little island.
- No tourists?
- I don't think so.
Good.
I'll stay on the island for a few weeks,
and that's it.
What kind of clothes do you have now?
The kind of clothes I'm wearing.
So, you got no clothes.
- Hey, Joe, how about a tux?
- I'll get one, if you get one?
I can't be buying no Armani tux.
I'm a workingman.
No one is paying you
to give me all this advice.
Let me buy you the tux
and we'll call it even.
- I feel like I'm getting married.
- I feel like I'm giving you away.
All right. I'll take nine pairs.
Give me Cassie Cimorelli, please.
Hello, Cassie. It's Marshall. How do?
Good.
I got somebody that needs you today.
You look like a prince in a fairy tale.
You're coming into focus, kid.
I'll take it.
Swiss army knife, world-band travel radio,
shaving kit...
...two Coleman lanterns,
and a violin case bar.
Will there be anything else?
I'll take this.
Have you thought much about luggage?
No, I never really have.
It's the central preoccupation of my life.
You travel the world,
you're away from home...
...perhaps away from your family...
...all you have to depend on is yourself,
and your luggage.
I guess that's true.
- Are you traveling light or heavy?
- Heavy.
- Flying?
- Flying and by ship.
- An ocean voyage.
- Yes.
A real journey.
Then I'll be on an island.
I don't know if I'll be living
in a hut or what.
Very exciting...
...as a luggage problem.
I have just the thing.
This is our premier steamer trunk.
All handmade, only the finest materials.
It's even watertight. Tight as a drum.
If I had the need and the wherewithal,
Mr. Banks...
...this would be my trunk of choice.
I'll take four.
May you live to be
a thousand years old, sir.
Same to you.
- Where to? Back to Staten Island?
- No.
A really nice hotel.
The Plaza.
The Plaza is nice.
Where would you go?
- The Pierre.
- Then we're off to the Pierre.
Marshall, would you like to have dinner
with me tonight?
I can't. I have the wife and kids
at the end of the day.
Everything is at check-in
when you're ready, sir.
Listen.
- Haven't you got anybody?
- No, but...
...there are certain times when
you're not supposed to have anyone.
Certain doors you must go through alone.
You'll be all right.
Ladies and gentlemen,
we're descending into Los Angeles.
That was totally awesome.
- Hi. Are you Joe Banks?
- Yeah. Who are you?
I'm the daughter of the guy who hired you.
Angelica Graynamore.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
Daddy told me to say I don't know
why he hired you, and not to tell me.
I'm totally untrustworthy.
I'm a flibbertigibbet.
Come on, let's get out of here.
I have some luggage.
Then, follow me.
- I've never been to L.A. before.
- You're kidding. What do you think?
It looks big. I like it.
This is a great town.
It stinks, but it's a great town.
Sea scallops with three caviars.
The Dungeness crabs.
- Pepper?
- No.
What's the matter?
Nothing.
They do look like little monsters.
But they're good, little monsters.
What did you do
before you signed on with Daddy?
I was an advertising librarian
for a medical supply company.
I have no response to that.
What do you do?
What do I do?
Why?
Well, I don't know.
I'm a painter and a poet.
- Really?
- Yes.
There's a painting of mine right there.
That's terrific.
Where do you get your ideas?
You have to understand something
about art.
It comes from some place.
Nice view.
It's like looking down on the stars.
Would you like to hear one of my poems?
