The spanking scene
One night, Annabel (Edith Fellows) refuses to go to bed when told and throws a big tantrum. After a chase through the house, Julia (Claudette Colbert) finally is alone in the room with her.
- Annabel: "If you make me go to bed, I won't sleep!"
- Julia: "I'll give you something to make you sleep."
- Annabel: "I won't take a pill!"
- Julia: "I'm not going to give you a pill, Annabel." (walks to the dressing table and picks up a hairbrush)
- Annabel: "If you'll give me a pill, I'll spit it out!"
- Julia: "This is going to hurt you more than it does me." (slaps the hairbrush a few times into her palm, approaching the girl)
- Annabel, wide-eyed: "What are you gonna do?"
Cut. From outside the room: spanking noise and Annabel's crying is heard.
Richard Barclay (Melvyn Douglas) listens to it and comments "That's the first music I've heard around this house for months."
