When questioned, Marcello chooses Carlos. Sister Bertrille in turn talks Carlos into being Marcello's surrogate father on occasion. But Carlos' memory fades quickly when he chooses to spend the day with beautiful Lila rather than keep his appointment to go sailing with Marcello. But unbeknownst to Sister Bertrille, Carlos does takes Marcello out on the boat as primary crew, while Carlos spends most of the time pampering Lila below deck. Despite Marcello having a good time and hoping Carlos will adopt him, Sister Bertrille fires Carlos as surrogate father. When Marcello finds out that Carlos needs to be married to adopt him, he takes matters into his own hands and places a newspaper ad looking for a wife for Carlos and a mother for himself. Despite having no money for an ad, the newspaper man decides it would be a good human interest story and places it on the front page. Droves of women descend on the casino and Carlos has to make a quick escape, Marcello in tow. Carlos and Marcello clear the air with each other and define the nature of their relationship.
