Then starts, admiring.
47--Close-up of Florence.
Florence freezing, yet eyes twinkle.
48--Wider-angle view.
Blinker quickly corrects himself by adding:
_Cut-in leader--_
"I DIDN'T SEE HOW I COULD HELP IT--AFTER I _SAW_ YOU."
She appears mollified. He sits.
49--Closer view, toward water.
Florence says:
_Cut-in leader--_
"I DON'T ALLOW GENTLEMEN TO SIT BESIDE ME TO WHOM I HAVE NOT BEEN INTRODUCED."
Comedy as Blinker rises, then sits as he sees she is joking.
They begin to "get together."
50--Same scene, different angle.
He asks Florence:
_Cut-in leader--_
"ARE YOU GOING TO CONEY ISLAND?"
She comes back at him:
_Cut-in leader--_
"CAN'T YOU SEE I'M RIDING A BICYCLE UP THE WOOLWORTH TOWER?"
He is abashed, then gets her idea, and says quite attentively:
_Cut-in leader--_
"I'VE NEVER BEEN TO CONEY. MAYN'T WE SEE IT TOGETHER?"
She is surprised, then appraises him and temporizes.
_Leader--_
IN DUE COURSE ONE IS DASHED INTO THE WALKS AND AVENUES OF FAIRYLAND GONE INTO VAUDEVILLE.
51--Steeplechase Amus.e.m.e.nt Park.
A long view to show the "atmosphere."[50] Florence and Blinker in the crowd.
[Footnote 50: The boat- and amus.e.m.e.nt-park scenes can only be lightly sketched in, as much depends on the director and his locations, so skeleton action is given.]
52--Closer view.
Blinker and Florence. "Tough" with girl. "Tough" blows cigar smoke in Blinker's face. Florence tactfully prevents a "sc.r.a.p." She can't afford to have cavalier "pinched." Off they go.
53--Some open-air amus.e.m.e.nt, as "The Whip."
Blinker and Florence on--he is disgusted. She is aflame with excitement. He looks disgustedly at the amus.e.m.e.nt, and she, divining--dejectedly--goes off with him.
_Leader--_
FLORENCE IS DIVINELY HAPPY--FOR IS SHE NOT WITH HER MAN--KEEPER OF THE KEYS OF FAIRYLAND?
54--Front of a show.
Florence in ecstasy. Overcomes chagrin. Goes in with disgusted but subdued Blinker--subdued by a battle royal with the mob around ticket wicket.
55--Inside the show.
As Blinker helps Florence into a seat, an Italian woman with bunch of candy-sticky kids comes along. In they pile, candying Blinker, who disgustedly hops out, with Florence, somewhat discomfited and provoked at him, following. He backs away, and she after him.
56--Closer view of the two.
Florence sizing up Blinker--delivers her opinion:
_Cut-in leader--_
"IF YOU EXPECT TO HAVE ANY FUN, YOU'VE GOT TO JUMP IN AND ACT AS NUTTY AS THE REST OF THEM."
Blinker is subdued, but hard to convince. Then he looks at the wistfulness of Florence's eyes, and somehow he decides he will try to enter into the spirit of the thing. She sees, is starry-eyed--drags him off, ecstasy in her face.
57--The flying horses.
Blinker about to get on, with Florence pulling him. They get on. "They're off!"
_Leader--_
BY THE MAGIC OF FLORENCE'S ENTHUSIASM BLINKER SUDDENLY SEES CONEY ISLAND IN ITS TRUE GUISE.
58--Flash on horse.
Florence all ecstasy.
