Blind Without 'Em: Pola. Unfortunately for her, she believes very strongly that "Men aren't attentive to girls who wear glasses," which for Freddie Denmark isn't true. |

Dumb Blonde: Pola and Loco. Loco thinks skiing on the water is the normal way, skiing on snow is weird. |

Hoist by His Own Petard |
| | How to Marry a Millionaire / int_d397657d |
comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: Driving back to New York City from his would-be tryst with Loco in Maine, drives a circuitous route to the west side of the Hudson River where nobody knows him. All the while he tells Loco how his intellect will keep his wife from knowing that he wasn't really on a business trip. As they cross the George Washington Bridge, they are stopped so that a swarm of press photographers can take their picture for being the five-millionth car to cross the bridge. |
