Transcript

You are about to hear a romantic drama, Hostage of Love, from Love Story Magazine, featuring the Love Story Girl in the role of Francis Tolden. Francis Tolden has a small apartment which he shares with her Persian cat, Ambrose.

Unfortunately, Ambrose has a roving disposition and frequently disappeared. As our first scene opens, Ambrose is again among the missing. Francis, dressed in rather a fetching lounging pajamas, stands by the open window of her tiny kitchenette, trying vainly to see up the fire escape.

It's a rather windy night to be climbing fire escapes, but then this isn't the first time that Ambrose has used this avenue of escape. Ambrose? Ambrose? Oh, grab that cat anyhow. He's probably gone up to the apartment above again, and I distinctly told him that Mrs. Nes did it moved away.

Lieutenant, whoever it is, probably doesn't like him. Oh, the... Ambrose! Well, I suppose I better go up, Oscar. Up, we go. It's cold. I thought as much. The kitchenette window above is open. I bet Ambrose is in there, all right?

Here, I hope nobody's home. Oh, it's cold. Ambrose. Oh, wait till I get my hands on him. Ambrose. What's all the oatling? I'm looking for Ambrose. Ambrose? Mrs. Nesbitt will add this apartment before you used to give him salmon.

I couldn't find him anyplace I thought of that. Oh, would Ambrose be a dark complexion gentleman with an affable manner in luxury and whiskies? If so, he's sitting in there in my best easy chair right now.

Look. Yes, that's Ambrose. Ambrose, you come here. I think he gives the place a nice homey touch. Ambrose, you come here this minute. You know, as Ambrose is evidently not going to come out to you, don't you think it might be nice if you come into him?
