My friend Irma, starring Marie Wilson as Irma, Joan Banks as Jane, and Hans-Con Reed as the lovable Professor Cropotkin. Friendship, friendship, just the perfect friendship when other friendships have been forgotten. Other worries when her child crosses the street.
Well, I'm not a mother, but every time my roommate, Irma Peterson, leaves the house, something happens. For instance, yesterday we went for a walk. And when I took my eyes off for a second, she started to cross the street against the signal.
A policeman yelled at her and said... Hey, lady! Don't you know Jay Walken is against the law? What's your name? Didn't you hear me, lady? What's your name? Look... For the last time, lady, what's your name?
Irma! Why don't you answer the officer? You know Al doesn't allow me to talk to strange men. Oh, he doesn't, does he? Well, maybe it will make us more friendly if I give you a ticket.
No, thank you. He doesn't let me go to the theater with strange men either. Oh, come on, Irma, before I blow my top. Oh, she's in the shower, Al. Sure, I'd be glad to give her a message.
What? You have gone into business. What is it this time? Blowing up spaghetti and selling it for fluorescent white tools? What? Okay, I stand corrected. This is logitimous. It's really something big. Yes, all right, Al. I'll tell Erma you're on your way over.
Goodbye, Daddy Warbucks. Who's on the phone, James? Your boyfriend, Al, is on his way over. Oh, I'm so glad. How is he? He's nice, fine. His same sweet adorable kind, phony cheap self. Oh, that's nice.
