My Man Godfrey1936

Irene:
Every place I went, everybody was Godfrey...when I get in a cab, the driver is Godfrey and I'd say, this is his chariot and he's taking me up to his clouds to his castle on the mountains.

Godfrey:
...I've been doing some things also. I've been trying to do things that I thought would make you proud of me....You helped me to find myself and I'm very grateful.

Irene:
You'd make a wonderful husband.

Godfrey:
Oh, I'm afraid not. You see, I know how you feel about things...Well, you're grateful to me because I helped you to beat Cornelia and I'm grateful to you because you helped me to beat life, but that doesn't mean that we have to fall in love.

Irene:
If you don't want to, but I'd make a wonderful wife.

Godfrey:
Not for me, I'm afraid. You see, I like you very much. I had a very bitter experience. But I won't bore you with that...You and I are friends and I feel a certain responsibility to you. And that's why I wanted to tell you first.

Irene:
[expectantly] Tell me what?

Godfrey:
Well, I thought it was about time that I was moving on.

[She turns her back to him, crying]

Irene:
I won't cry, I promise.

Godfrey:
After all, I'm your protégé. You want me to improve myself, don't you?..You don't want me to go on just being a butler all my life, do you?
