00:00:24 Hello? Who? Mr. Evans? Why no, he's not here. I haven't seen him in two or three days.
00:00:33 All right, good-bye.
00:00:35 No, Mike, I haven't seen Gar in a week. Sure, I'm telling you the truth.
00:00:42 Who? Gar Evans? No, but he was here a couple of days ago.
00:00:48 Yes, this is Francine. I told you, I don't know where Gar is.
00:00:51 He left here four days ago saying he was going to the drugstore for a Bromo Seltzer, and that's the last I've seen of him.
00:00:56 And furthermore, that's the last I'm ever going to see of him.
00:01:00 You'll never find that guy. I'm going home. Wait, Mr. Ginsburg, I know we'll find him eventually.
00:01:13 He never goes off 47th Street. Hey, looking for a needle in a haystack is nothing compared to looking for a boy in a gin mill.
00:01:19 Please, Mr. Ginsburg, you'll never regret it.
00:01:22 Just one more, Mr. Ginsburg, just one more.
00:01:25 Yeah, one more. Speak easy and I'll be drunk from smelling the stairs.
00:01:29 Hello, Mike.
00:01:41 Hi. Two beers. Anybody in there?
00:01:46 No one you'd care about. Say, this fellow would have to be pretty good to be worth all this trouble.
00:01:52 Good! He's the greatest promoter that ever lived. Gar Evans would sell a second crop of whiskers to Moses.
00:01:57 Why, Gar Evans... Yeah, then for the love of Moses, go and find him.
00:02:01 I can taste the needles. Mr. Ginsburg, I found him.
00:02:13 Yeah? Let me meet him.
00:02:16 He doesn't look so good. No, no, it's all right. I don't want to marry him.
00:02:20 Just remember, he's the greatest promoter that I know that ever lived.
00:02:24 There he is, Mr. Ginsburg.
00:02:28 So that's the great Gar Evans, huh?
00:02:36 Well, I told you he didn't look so good. Sleeping beauty.
00:02:40 Ah, he's just been drinking a little. If that's a little, I'd hate to see him drunk.
00:02:44 Don't worry, Mr. Ginsburg. Don't worry.
00:02:47 Just about once every year he goes on one of these vendors, but only between deals.
00:02:52 I give you my word of honor, Mr. Ginsburg. He never touches a drop when he's working.
00:02:57 Look out! He needs you. And you need him, Mr. Ginsburg.
00:03:00 He'll take that deal of yours and put it over big. A million dollars.
00:03:03 I don't like to depend on the drunk. He's not drunk. He moves. Just look at him.
00:03:07 What is there to look at? That he sleeps standing up?
00:03:10 Wait till you see him in action. In four hours, I'll have his eyes open.
00:03:13 If you do, you'll have to use an automobile jack.
00:03:15 In five hours, he'll be listening to you.
00:03:17 In six hours, he'll lay out a campaign for your deal and sell all your stock.
00:03:20 All right, let's get a couple of Paul Berets and carry him out.
00:03:23 Come on, give me a hand.
00:03:25 Hey, wait a minute. Hold on. Hold on. You fix this on me.
00:03:29 Open the door, Mr. Ginsburg.
00:03:31 Hey, wait a minute. What's the matter?
00:03:33 You can't take that guy out of here like that.
00:03:36 That's all right. He's a friend of mine.
00:03:38 A good friend? The best in the world.
00:03:40 Well, then you can settle his bill first.
00:03:43 How much?
00:03:46 108 bucks.
00:03:48 Hey, we didn't want to buy him. We just wanted to rent him.
00:03:50 Well, that's where he's head.
00:03:52 And I ain't even going to charge him for sleeping here all night.
00:03:55 Oh, let's leave him here. He's too expensive.
00:03:58 Oh, don't get discouraged, Mr. Ginsburg. You're just laying it out.
00:04:01 We'll earn that back for you in no time.
00:04:03 Come on. It ain't human to leave him here like this.
00:04:06 He's too good a man.
00:04:08 I'm afraid he's too good for me.
00:04:10 Honest, Mr. Ginsburg, you will regret it.
00:04:12 You're losing the chance of a lifetime.
00:04:14 Are you going to let a few pennies stand in the way of thousands, millions?
00:04:19 All right, if you say so.
00:04:23 Mr. Ginsburg, you'll be a millionaire.
00:04:25 Yeah, I'll settle for less.
00:04:31 Let's pour him in a taxi cab. Come on.
00:04:34 Well, this is the first time I ever had to take a bath to keep an appointment.
00:04:46 But it's great for the figure, Mr. Ginsburg.
00:04:49 Say, what am I, a clothes model that I got to have a figure?
00:05:00 Hey, mister, get a fork and see if I'm done too, will you?
00:05:04 You see, Mr. Ginsburg, all he needed was this little shower.
00:05:22 Little shower.
00:05:24 What he needs is a couple of cloudboys.
00:05:27 And after this, a nice alcohol rub.
00:05:30 Yeah, well, he won't need the alcohol.
00:05:33 Hey, where are you? I'm lost.
00:05:41 Come in, Mr. Ginsburg, come in.
00:05:43 Oh, there you are.
00:05:45 Well, how is waterman Evans?
00:05:49 Didn't I tell you I'd get him on his feet?
00:05:51 Yeah, but he's still laying down.
00:05:52 Let me present Gar Evans in the flesh.
00:05:54 At last. How do you do, Mr. Evans?
00:05:57 How do you do, sir?
00:05:59 This is Mr. Ginsburg.
00:06:01 What about it?
00:06:02 We got a new deal for you.
00:06:03 A sweet deal. Gar, the biggest deal in the world.
00:06:06 Hey, Gar, get a load of this.
00:06:08 What did you say about a deal?
00:06:09 Go ahead now, Mr. Ginsburg, tell her to him.
00:06:11 Now, listen, Mr. Evans, listen.
00:06:13 A couple of weeks ago, I ran across a German inventor that's got a great process for making rubber out of sewage.
00:06:19 Out of what?
00:06:20 Sewage.
00:06:22 Sewage?
00:06:23 Yeah.
00:06:24 Ooh.
00:06:25 And it's a cheap process, too. Now, the cost is...
00:06:28 Sewage.
00:06:29 Tons and tons of it, Gar. Get yourself into that picture.
00:06:32 Tons and tons of sewage begins everywhere and ends nowhere.
00:06:36 And we can make good rubber out of it.
00:06:37 Sure. Now, I want to organize a company.
00:06:39 Sewage.
00:06:40 Whatever.
00:06:41 There's no romance in sewage.
00:06:44 Romance? Say, what does he want, moving pictures?
00:06:46 He's just thinking out loud.
00:06:47 Yeah, but he looks disgusted.
00:06:49 Well, you know how a man is after a bath.
00:06:51 Say, what is this, some gag?
00:06:53 No, no, absolutely not. This is the most amazing proposition you ever heard.
00:06:56 Sure.
00:06:57 Is this process on the level?
00:07:00 Say, what is he, a promoter or a surveyor?
00:07:02 He's the greatest promoter in the world.
00:07:04 Yeah, then what is he so particular about?
00:07:06 Ask him.
00:07:07 All right, Mr. Evans, now I ask you.
00:07:09 Well, apparently the gentleman doesn't understand that there are promoters and promoters.
00:07:17 Colonel?
00:07:19 I've organized dozens of companies.
00:07:21 I've sold millions of dollars worth of stock.
00:07:23 But every deal that I go into must be on the level.
00:07:26 Anybody can promote a crooked deal. That's plain robbery.
00:07:29 But it takes talent to put across something that's on the level.
00:07:32 Are you a reformer, too?
00:07:33 Early in this game, I learned one thing.
00:07:36 They can put you in jail for larceny, and I don't like jail.
00:07:40 Who said I like it?
00:07:41 However, it's no crime to exaggerate.
00:07:45 Exaggerate?
00:07:46 Now, let me get this straight.
00:07:48 You really get rubber?
00:07:49 Yes, sir.
00:07:50 Can it be made cheap?
00:07:51 What's cheaper than sewage?
00:07:53 Reverend, please, don't ever repeat that word in this deal.
00:08:01 It's not a nice word.
00:08:03 Remember this, Colonel.
00:08:05 Every deal must have romance to it.
00:08:08 When you are selling stock in a baby company that was just born, you are not selling dividends.
00:08:12 You are selling a dream, a beautiful picture of the future.
00:08:15 That's right.
00:08:16 Now, you bought the pump.
00:08:18 Yes, sir.
00:08:19 You've got the inventor.
00:08:20 Right in my pocket.
00:08:21 Have you got a sample?
00:08:22 What, of the sewage?
00:08:23 You think I'd carry around?
00:08:24 Has the company been organized?
00:08:25 Not yet.
00:08:26 Have you got a name for it?
00:08:27 Oh, I've got a wonderful name.
00:08:28 The Utility Rubber Company.
00:08:31 We'll call this the Golden Gate Artificial Rubber Company.
00:08:38 That word gold.
00:08:39 Gold.
00:08:40 It's the greatest in the world.
00:08:42 It's like the word heaven in religion.
00:08:44 Like love in a motion picture title.
00:08:45 It's sure fire.
00:08:46 The best in the game.
00:08:47 Sure.
00:08:48 Now, have you got front money?
00:08:49 Front money?
00:08:50 Sure.
00:08:51 You know the best proposition you've got to put up a big front.
00:08:53 Big offices, impressive furniture, dignified stationary, literature, advertising.
00:08:59 Well, how much do you think will be needed?
00:09:02 Reverend, I should say 25 G's.
00:09:05 25 G's?
00:09:06 25 grand.
00:09:07 For the front alone?
00:09:09 I might be able to raise 15.
00:09:11 Now, in one year after our factory starts, I should say conservatively that we'll turn
00:09:16 out 100,000 tons of rubber.
00:09:18 And by that time, the combined output of all our factories should net us a staggering total
00:09:25 of...
00:09:26 Colonel, I think you'd better get the 25 G's.
00:09:30 This proposition is beginning to appeal to me.
00:09:34 Gentlemen, the deal is started.
00:09:37 Ah, that's great.
00:09:38 What did I tell you?
00:09:39 Yes, sir.
00:09:40 There's just one way that Gar Evans goes into a deal.
00:09:43 51% of the voting stock of the company is kept by the promoters, and I handle the deal.
00:09:47 Hey, but what do I get?
00:09:49 Oh, plenty.
00:09:51 You and I are partners, Reverend.
00:09:53 Fine.
00:09:54 Mike, start the ball rolling.
00:09:55 What do I use for money?
00:09:56 Colonel, you lay it out.
00:09:57 That's part of the front money.
00:09:58 I'll take care of everything.
00:10:00 And now, gentlemen, I'll say goodnight.
00:10:03 Reverend, it was a pleasure to meet you.
00:10:05 You're a likable fellow, and heaven knows there are a few of them around.
00:10:09 I'll see you in the morning.
00:10:10 Thank you.
00:10:11 Now, oh, Miss Evans, just a minute.
00:10:12 I want to ask you a favor.
00:10:14 Anything, Reverend.
00:10:15 My name is Ginsberg, plain Mr. Ginsberg.
00:10:18 Now, if you want to give me a title, please make up your mind which one, either Reverend
00:10:23 or Colonel, because I've got to know if I'm in the Army or the synagogue.
00:10:27 [laughing]
00:10:28 All right, you are.
00:10:30 All right, we'll make it Colonel Ginsberg, because you don't look like a Southern gentleman.
00:10:35 Good night.
00:10:36 Good night.
00:10:37 Oh, Mike.
00:10:39 What's wrong?
00:10:40 Do you feel bad, Gar?
00:10:42 I forgot all about Francine.
00:10:44 I've been away for days.
00:10:46 I know.
00:10:47 I talked to her.
00:10:48 Was she burned up?
00:10:49 Red-headed.
00:10:51 Listen, Mike, before you do anything, you've got to get hold of her and square me.
00:10:55 I know she won't talk to me.
00:10:57 Tell her this is the last time.
00:10:59 That's what I told her the last time.
00:11:02 Well, you've got to do it again.
00:11:03 I can't get going without her.
00:11:05 Neither me.
00:11:07 Well, better you than me.
00:11:11 What is this about Francine?
00:11:13 Can he promote without a woman?
00:11:15 Well, that's the way he feels about Francine.
00:11:17 You know, sort of superstitious.
00:11:19 He thinks she brings him good luck.
00:11:21 Once before we started a deal and everything looked lovely.
00:11:24 Monday we started.
00:11:25 Tuesday Francine leaves.
00:11:27 Wednesday the springs dry up.
00:11:29 And Saturday we fold up.
00:11:32 He won't stand there if he's got to have a woman, go and get her.
00:11:35 And give him red-eyes and buy her a flower too.
00:11:38 [inaudible]
00:11:48 Be careful of that car, presented.
00:11:50 Where's that?
00:11:51 Take it easy.
00:11:52 Hey, how much does that cost?
00:11:54 [speaking German]
00:11:56 Huh?
00:11:57 Now hurry up.
00:11:58 No overtime.
00:11:59 Remember.
00:12:00 Look out there.
00:12:01 [inaudible]
00:12:03 Put it right here, boy.
00:12:05 Don't place it anywhere.
00:12:06 I told you you were going to get hurt there.
00:12:08 I'll bet you never imagined last night that you'd be in your office today.
00:12:12 As far as I'm concerned, I ain't in it yet.
00:12:15 Such a rent.
00:12:17 Don't worry.
00:12:18 Let Garth settle that with the agent.
00:12:19 How much does he ask anyway?
00:12:21 He ain't so polite.
00:12:22 He don't ask.
00:12:23 He just says $15,000 a year, take it or leave it.
00:12:25 Well, you're getting a whole floor on Fifth Avenue.
00:12:27 What do we want to do with so much space?
00:12:29 What are we, in the dance hall business?
00:12:31 Morning, gentlemen.
00:12:35 Hello, Garth.
00:12:37 Now, Mike, haven't you been with me long enough to know that it's Mr. Evans around the office?
00:12:41 And don't shoot words at a gentleman with a heater in your pan.
00:12:44 We need atmosphere around here, but it mustn't smell of rope.
00:12:47 Where's Francine?
00:12:48 Is she here?
00:12:49 I'm sorry.
00:12:50 I couldn't do a thing with her.
00:12:51 She says she's through.
00:12:53 Well, you're a great help.
00:12:55 You've got to get Francine.
00:12:56 Without her, this deal is jinxed.
00:12:58 Well, I think you'd better go see her yourself.
00:13:01 Say, will you do what I tell you?
00:13:04 All right.
00:13:05 I'll try once more.
00:13:06 Oh.
00:13:10 Now, Colonel, I want you to open two bank accounts.
00:13:16 Bank?
00:13:17 One downtown and one uptown.
00:13:18 Why two?
00:13:20 So that you can make a deposit in one of them every day, even if you have to withdraw it from the other.
00:13:24 You get me?
00:13:25 Yeah, I get you.
00:13:28 Oh, hello, Mr. Brown.
00:13:30 I'm glad to see you.
00:13:31 I'm here.
00:13:32 How are you?
00:13:33 I want you to meet Mr. Evans, our manager.
00:13:34 Oh, Mr. Evans, this is Mr. Brown, the agent for the building.
00:13:37 How do you do?
00:13:38 How do you do, Mr. Brown?
00:13:39 I, uh, I was just telling Colonel Ginsberg, it's too bad you haven't enough space for us here.
00:13:44 Not enough space?
00:13:45 Why, you've got the entire floor.
00:13:47 We can just about crowd in here with our present personnel.
00:13:51 But, of course, when we begin to expand...
00:13:53 Well, I've got a vacant suite on the floor below.
00:13:55 Oh, uh, quite a bit of empty space in this building, huh?
00:13:59 I mean...
00:14:00 Well, I'm afraid you're on the wrong side of the avenue, Mr. Brown.
00:14:03 You say the rental here is a thousand a month?
00:14:05 No, no, it's...
00:14:06 Oh, well, we might just as well stop everything.
00:14:09 Of course, you'll never get that.
00:14:11 However, I'll tell you what we might be willing to do for you.
00:14:15 What?
00:14:16 Uh, what's the name of this building?
00:14:18 Uh, it has no name, just a number.
00:14:20 Oh, well, that's too bad.
00:14:21 It's always an inducement to your tenants.
00:14:23 If they can engrave the name of the building on their stationery.
00:14:26 Yes, there's something in there.
00:14:28 Mr. Brown, you look like a straightforward businessman...
00:14:31 and heaven knows there are few of them around.
00:14:34 I'll make you a proposition.
00:14:36 Yes, sir?
00:14:37 We'll allow you to call this the Golden Gate Artificial Rubber Building.
00:14:42 Yes, sir, we'll even allow you to display that name in large letters on the front of the building.
00:14:47 Well, that sounds good.
00:14:49 In other words, we'll allow the building to share in the prestige and prosperity of our company...
00:14:54 in exchange for a concession in the rent.
00:14:57 How much?
00:14:58 Let us say, part.
00:14:59 Part?
00:15:00 That is, provided we get a clause in the lease giving us an option to buy the building.
00:15:04 Now, in two or three years, we're going to tear this down and put up a 60-story office building.
00:15:09 And when that happens, I feel pretty sure that the name of our renting agent will be, uh...
00:15:16 What was the gentleman's name?
00:15:18 Oscar Brown.
00:15:19 Will be, uh, Oscar Brown.
00:15:21 Well, I'll take it right up with the office.
00:15:24 Good.
00:15:25 Oh, just a minute.
00:15:27 Ross!
00:15:28 Uh...
00:15:29 What do you say, Colonel?
00:15:31 Don't you think we can do better than that?
00:15:34 Oh, sure.
00:15:35 Are you gentlemen in the heel business?
00:15:38 Oh, uh, in a way.
00:15:40 Mr. Brown, we manufacture an artificial rubber that's better than the natural product.
00:15:44 Is that so?
00:15:45 Sure.
00:15:46 There's got to be a lot of profit in that.
00:15:48 I'd say so.
00:15:49 Our stockholders are going to find out pretty soon.
00:15:51 Are you letting the public in?
00:15:54 Oh, no.
00:15:55 No, not yet, Oscar.
00:15:56 Of course, we wouldn't keep our books closed to a friend.
00:16:00 I'm sure I can swing that lease for you.
00:16:02 Good day.
00:16:03 Good day.
00:16:04 Goodbye, Mr. Brown.
00:16:05 Goodbye.
00:16:06 Say, Evans, you certainly know all your onions.
00:16:11 You gave that fellow a pretty good talk.
00:16:13 I guess Oscar Brown is our first stockholder.
00:16:16 Are you saying something?
00:16:18 Ah, be reasonable, Francine.
00:16:21 You know Gar loves you.
00:16:22 You know he can't work without you.
00:16:23 He's got the biggest deal he ever had.
00:16:25 If you'll just bring along, I promise you, he'll settle down and lead a normal life.
00:16:29 You promise me?
00:16:30 Yes.
00:16:31 And Gar promises you, too.
00:16:33 He told me to tell you that he'd sign the pledge.
00:16:35 Do anything you ask.
00:16:37 No one will ever love you the way Gar does.
00:16:39 Francine, he's a great fellow.
00:16:41 No, Mike, for the last time I tell you, I'm all through.
00:16:45 Gar's kept me on a merry-go-round for five years and never reached for the ring.
00:16:49 And right now is where I get off.
00:16:52 Hello, Juan. Come in.
00:17:00 Hello, Francine.
00:17:02 I want you to meet a friend of mine, Mr. Donahay.
00:17:07 This is Mr. Rodriguez, my fiancé.
00:17:10 Charmed. Señor.
00:17:13 I'm pleased to meet you, señor.
00:17:17 That's right, boys.
00:17:19 Now, that's what I call a desk.
00:17:22 Such an expensive one. Who's going to sit on it?
00:17:24 This is for Francine.
00:17:26 Well, I hope you get her.
00:17:28 I've got to get her.
00:17:31 How do you do, Mr. Evans?
00:17:33 Mr. Donahay said you wanted to see me.
00:17:35 What have you been doing?
00:17:37 Not a thing, Mr. Evans, since the last job.
00:17:39 Just waiting on you.
00:17:41 Now look at yourself. Just look at the condition of that suit.
00:17:43 I couldn't help it, Mr. Evans. I'm clean broke.
00:17:46 I didn't have the price of a flop last night.
00:17:48 I'm not going to be able to get a job.
00:17:50 I'm going to have to get a job.
00:17:52 I'm going to have to get a job.
00:17:54 I'm going to have to get a job.
00:17:56 I'm going to have to get a job.
00:17:58 I didn't have the price of a flop last night.
00:18:00 I just rode back and forth in the subway.
00:18:02 Just clean broke.
00:18:04 Give him a quarter and send him away. Go on.
00:18:06 Colonel Ginsberg, I want you to meet Mr. Clifford Gray,
00:18:08 the president of our company.
00:18:10 What?
00:18:12 Is this a joke?
00:18:14 Colonel, you're meeting the perfect president of any company.
00:18:17 What do you mean?
00:18:19 Mr. Gray has been president of four companies that I've launched.
00:18:21 Some men work up to be presidents.
00:18:23 Others are born that way.
00:18:25 At seven, he was the ideal president of a big company.
00:18:27 But he had to wait 40 years before he could look like one.
00:18:29 Nobody in the world can sit in a chair the way he does.
00:18:32 Yeah, a chair-sitter, yeah.
00:18:35 Here. A bath, a shave, a meal.
00:18:37 Change your clothes and get back here as soon as you're ready.
00:18:39 You understand?
00:18:41 Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
00:18:43 Charm, Colonel.
00:18:45 Ah, fat!
00:18:51 Now, uh...
00:18:53 Pardon me a moment, Colonel.
00:18:56 A Rhinelander, 3-4-7-5-2.
00:18:59 I beg your pardon, sir,
00:19:01 but I understand a new company has moved into this office.
00:19:03 I suppose you want to be vice president, huh?
00:19:05 No, sir.
00:19:07 But could I interest you in our handy towel service?
00:19:09 A nice cabinet with mirror,
00:19:11 12 towels a week, and six cakes of soap.
00:19:13 I'd like to wash my hands of the whole business.
00:19:15 Send one dozen orchids to Miss Francine Dale
00:19:17 at the Alhambra Apartments.
00:19:19 Open an account for the gold and silver
00:19:21 that's been sold to the gold and silver business.
00:19:23 Open an account for the Golden Gate
00:19:25 Artificial Rubber Company,
00:19:27 and charge them.
00:19:29 But it's 12 towels and a comb and brush.
00:19:31 Now brush yourself out of here. Go on, don't bother me.
00:19:33 Oh, just a minute.
00:19:37 Colonel, I'm afraid you're a bit hasty.
00:19:39 Young man, I watched you make that sale.
00:19:41 I like your smooth approach.
00:19:43 I like your persistence.
00:19:45 You're a natural-born salesman,
00:19:47 and heaven knows there are few of them around.
00:19:49 Thank you, sir. Does that mean I get the order?
00:19:51 You may get more than that.
00:19:53 How much do you earn a week?
00:19:55 I generally average around $12.
00:19:57 Oh, that's not enough. You should be making four times that.
00:19:59 What's your name, son? Gus Vanderbilt.
00:20:01 Gus Vanderbilt?
00:20:03 Augustus Vanderbilt.
00:20:05 Are you in a relation to the Vanderbilts?
00:20:07 You mean my father?
00:20:09 I mean the millionaire.
00:20:11 Not that I know of.
00:20:13 The boys kid me about it.
00:20:15 Would you like to sit on our board of directors?
00:20:17 Not if you fall off easy.
00:20:20 Well, Augustus, we're always adding bright young men to our staff of salesmen,
00:20:24 even if it's only for spare work in the evenings.
00:20:26 Now, you come to my dynamic personality class tonight, and I'll teach you how.
00:20:30 Yes, sir.
00:20:31 Augustus, you're in our company.
00:20:33 Thank you, sir.
00:20:35 Hey, why do you pick such people? He ain't no salesman.
00:20:37 Augustus Vanderbilt? That name's going to look great on our stationery.
00:20:40 All right, pay him $2 for the use of his name, but why hire him?
00:20:43 Colonel, you're a mighty fine fellow, and heaven knows there are few of them around.
00:20:46 Thank you.
00:20:47 But you don't understand psychology.
00:20:49 Do I have to be a college student to know that he ain't a salesman?
00:20:51 Of course he's not, but we'll get him so sold on this proposition that he'll buy stock himself.
00:20:55 Then he'll sell his father, his uncle, his cousins, anybody he isn't afraid to approach.
00:20:58 And after he runs through his family, then what?
00:21:00 That's plenty. If we can get a thousand like him, making one or two sales a piece,
00:21:03 it's not to be sneezed at.
00:21:04 Who's sneezing?
00:21:05 Small sales keep the ball rolling. A thousand shareholders beat another thousand.
00:21:08 That's why a hot market tip circulates so fast.
00:21:10 Oh, I see. I still got a lot to learn.
00:21:12 We all have.
00:21:14 Say, where's that inventor?
00:21:15 I wasn't able to reach him. He went over to New Jersey for a few days to look over the Edison plant.
00:21:18 I guess he hasn't come back yet.
00:21:19 Well, then try the Edison plant right away. I'm going to go over our plans and get ready to manufacture our product.
00:21:23 We've got to have samples ready within a week.
00:21:25 You said it. I'm going to go and find him right away.
00:21:27 Are you Mr. Evans?
00:21:34 In the flesh.
00:21:36 Mr. Donaghey told me to come and see you about a position as your private secretary.
00:21:40 Oh, yes, yes. Come in. Just sit down there, won't you?
00:21:42 Now, what's your name, sister?
00:21:44 Helen Wilson.
00:21:46 Helen Wilson. And you think you'd like to work for me, huh?
00:21:48 Oh, I'd love to. That is, I would love to be secretary to such a big official in such a big company.
00:21:56 Helen, I like your face. I'll play with you.
00:22:01 What?
00:22:02 I'll engage you. Now, but just one thing. You're not going to get married.
00:22:06 Why?
00:22:07 Because I don't want to go to the trouble of breaking in a private secretary and then losing her down the aisle.
00:22:10 Oh, no, sir. I'm not going to get married. That is, not right away.
00:22:14 But you mind night work?
00:22:16 Oh, no, sir. I'm very ambitious.
00:22:19 Well, then you just take off your things. You can go right to work.
00:22:22 Oh, thank you, sir. Yes, sir. I'll go right to work.
00:22:25 Could you tell me where the doc...
00:22:33 the...
00:22:35 dynamic personality class is?
00:22:38 Oh, it must be in there.
00:22:40 Thank you.
00:22:41 Hello, Colonel.
00:22:48 Ah, Baron. Sanguine and a bestia. I am so glad to see you.
00:22:51 How are you?
00:22:52 Fine. Never better.
00:22:53 Say, what's the new deal? Mike tells me it sounds like a million dollars. But he doesn't know any other numbers.
00:22:58 I don't know. But if Gar Evans handles it, it must be very good.
00:23:02 Sure. I was away on a real estate deal when I got word from Gar. I dropped everything.
00:23:06 I don't blame you. Come on.
00:23:08 Mr. Evans, Mr. Moore, your attorney is here.
00:23:11 Oh, yes. Show him right here.
00:23:13 Very pretty.
00:23:15 Hello, Gar.
00:23:16 Hi, Jimmy.
00:23:17 My, what a place.
00:23:18 Ah, just a little thing I picked up.
00:23:20 Well, incorporation papers filed?
00:23:22 Yes. My man flew to Delaware, called back and said everything's in order.
00:23:24 That's fine. Now, there's just one thing more.
00:23:26 I want you to get me a bank president for our treasurer.
00:23:28 Now, that's tough. Bank presidents have been committing suicides so fast lately, there's only a few of them left.
00:23:33 Now, get me a Supreme Court judge for chairman of our board of directors.
00:23:36 Oh, be reasonable, Gar. I can't get a Supreme Court judge. It just isn't being done.
00:23:40 But this deal is on the level. There's no fake to it, whatever.
00:23:42 I know, but after all, a Supreme Court judge is impossible to get.
00:23:45 Well, then I suppose we'll have to use that horse show judge again.
00:23:48 You know, Judge J. Alden Wilmerding. All looks the same on stationary.
00:23:51 Well, I'll try and dig him up for you.
00:23:53 Well, I'm still waiting for you.
00:23:57 But, Jeffrey, I said you were to wait downstairs.
00:23:59 Oh, but I was worried about you, dear.
00:24:02 Mr. Evans put me right to work.
00:24:04 You're going to work tonight?
00:24:05 Sure.
00:24:06 Oh, that's a swell job. The first day of night work already, huh?
00:24:10 Shh, quiet, dear.
00:24:12 If Mr. Evans knew I was going to get married, I'd lose my job.
00:24:16 Oh, so he's going to tell you when you can get married, is he?
00:24:19 Oh, Jeffrey.
00:24:21 Oh, uh, hello.
00:24:23 Uh, the meeting's right in the assembly room there, son.
00:24:26 Oh, this is, uh... May I introduce Mr. Jeffrey Weston?
00:24:30 Oh, your fiancé?
00:24:32 Well, hardly.
00:24:33 Why?
00:24:34 Oh, an admirer, then. Well, I'm delighted to meet you, young man. You're to be congratulated.
00:24:37 Oh, Helen is a bright girl, loyal, too. And heaven knows there are few of them around.
00:24:41 Yes, thanks.
00:24:42 Mr. Weston's a newspaper man.
00:24:44 Oh, that's fine. Then you can listen to my speech and write it up for your paper.
00:24:47 Now, what paper are you on, son? The Times?
00:24:49 Not yet, but I will be, though. Right now I'm on the Bronx Home News.
00:24:52 Oh, that gives me an idea.
00:24:54 Perhaps we can work you in to do a little publicity for us, to write articles and speeches.
00:24:58 Well, anything in the newspaper line I can do.
00:25:00 Now, Helen, you be sure to get down every word of my speech.
00:25:02 Now, you go right in there, and I...
00:25:05 Uh, I'll join you.
00:25:08 Hello, honey.
00:25:12 Don't "honey" me.
00:25:13 Oh, now, baby.
00:25:14 Did you get your promo seltzer?
00:25:16 Huh?
00:25:17 That's what you said you were going for five days ago.
00:25:20 Here.
00:25:21 What? But those are yours, baby. I gave them to you.
00:25:24 Well, I'm giving them back.
00:25:26 Oh, now, listen, honey. This is no time to get sore at me.
00:25:30 I've just started the biggest deal of my life.
00:25:32 It looks like a clean million.
00:25:34 Sounds like an echo to me.
00:25:36 Say, Mike, go in and quiet those monkeys, will you?
00:25:38 I'll be right in.
00:25:40 Honestly, baby, the picture's perfect.
00:25:42 What's the gag this time?
00:25:44 Rubber.
00:25:45 I can smell it burning.
00:25:46 Artificial rubber.
00:25:48 It just naturally stinks to me.
00:25:50 Oh, now, baby, don't talk that way.
00:25:52 Just take a look at this layout, will you?
00:25:53 I want to tell you we're going to clean up.
00:25:55 We?
00:25:56 Why, sure, you and I.
00:25:58 I've heard that constantly for five years.
00:26:00 But I know the way it happens.
00:26:02 You clean up first, and then I clean up after you.
00:26:04 Oh, now, Francine, I promise you this will be different.
00:26:07 I don't believe you.
00:26:08 Oh, Gar, how can I?
00:26:10 Well, you ran out on the most important date we ever had.
00:26:13 Did I, honey? Or what was it?
00:26:15 You had a date with me to get married.
00:26:17 Well, now, honey, is that something you get sore about?
00:26:19 Say, that's the worst thing you could have done to me.
00:26:21 What do you think I am, a luck charm for you?
00:26:24 Well, Gar, I'm getting older.
00:26:26 Older? Why, you're looking younger right now.
00:26:28 You can't promote me.
00:26:30 Francine, now, you can't run out on me.
00:26:32 You ran out on me, and I'm tired of all this.
00:26:35 It's like living in a revolving door.
00:26:37 Honey, I'll go on the wagon.
00:26:40 They haven't built a wagon that could hold you.
00:26:42 But I've got to have your baby wet.
00:26:44 I couldn't put this deal over without you.
00:26:46 I'll cut you in. I'll let you run this.
00:26:48 I need you, honey. You bring me luck.
00:26:50 I see. I bring you luck.
00:26:52 Just a rabbit's foot.
00:26:54 Oh, I didn't mean it that way.
00:26:55 Honey, let's put this deal over my last.
00:26:57 And I'll do anything you say.
00:26:58 Marry you, give up promotions, settle down in the country, anything.
00:27:00 You write your own ticket.
00:27:01 No, Gar. It's all over.
00:27:03 That's what I came to tell you.
00:27:04 Well, what do you mean?
00:27:05 Believe it or not, at last I've met a gentleman.
00:27:07 Where?
00:27:08 At the hotel.
00:27:09 Impossible.
00:27:10 He comes from South America.
00:27:11 Oh, I see. A southern gentleman.
00:27:13 He wants me to go back to Bolivia as his wife, and I've accepted.
00:27:16 What?
00:27:17 I'd like the feeling once of being called Mrs.
00:27:19 Gar, they're getting more and more restless.
00:27:20 Honey, I've got a hundred salesmen in there waiting for me,
00:27:22 and I'm starting the biggest deal I've ever handled.
00:27:24 When this is over, there won't be anything in the world that's too good for you,
00:27:26 all for the love of everything that's fair.
00:27:28 Don't go.
00:27:29 I tell you, I'm all washed up.
00:27:31 You've played football with me long enough, and I'm tired of being kicked around.
00:27:34 You're just a drunken, no-good, irresponsible scoundrel,
00:27:36 and that goes double in Spain.
00:27:38 Oh, baby, now listen to me.
00:27:39 Now, where's that invention?
00:27:41 I couldn't find it. He wasn't at the Edison plant.
00:27:43 Oh, what, did you leave him last?
00:27:44 In this hotel, I gave him a thousand dollars for his invention, and now he's disappeared.
00:27:46 I'll go and find him right away.
00:27:48 Hey, you're the hotel in town.
00:27:49 I've got to have that guy here tonight.
00:27:50 I want him to make a talk for our sales.
00:27:51 Hey, did you hear what he said?
00:27:52 Take me down, down, down, down.
00:27:53 Yes, honey.
00:27:54 Mike, go in there and give them a pep talk.
00:27:57 A pep talk?
00:27:58 Say, wait.
00:27:59 Send Helen in.
00:28:00 I want to dictate him.
00:28:03 Honey, listen.
00:28:04 Can't you feel the excitement in there?
00:28:05 I tell you, this is going to be the biggest thing in my entire career.
00:28:07 Can I help you, Mr. Evans?
00:28:09 Oh, yes, dear.
00:28:10 I'm going to need a lot of your help from now on, and I'm going to depend upon you.
00:28:13 Oh, thank you.
00:28:14 I know it's going to be wonderful working for you.
00:28:16 And you're sure you won't mind spending evenings with me, taking dictation?
00:28:18 No, of course not.
00:28:19 I'll love it.
00:28:20 Oh, that's fine.
00:28:21 Ready?
00:28:22 I want you to rush this ad over to tomorrow's paper.
00:28:24 I'm going to need 200 more sales.
00:28:25 One of this ad must bring them in.
00:28:31 Are you a red-blooded he-man?
00:28:34 Are you red-blooded he-men?
00:28:36 Yes!
00:28:38 Are you the kind of men that blaze new trails?
00:28:40 That cut your way through the wilderness of ignorance?
00:28:43 Are you men like Christopher Columbus, that wonderful Italian who discovered America?
00:28:49 Hooray!
00:28:51 Bravo!
00:28:53 Bravo!
00:28:54 When Columbus set forth on that memorable voyage, all the kibitzers made fun of him.
00:28:59 And we know what a kibitzer is, don't we, boys?
00:29:02 You said it!
00:29:03 [interposing voices]
00:29:08 They said he was going on a wild goose chase.
00:29:11 But did Columbus listen to them?
00:29:13 No, sir.
00:29:14 He had the kind of spirit the ancient Greeks had.
00:29:18 The Greeks who founded Athens, the greatest center of culture the world has ever known.
00:29:23 Hooray!
00:29:24 Hooray!
00:29:25 Hooray!
00:29:28 The kind of courage and daring that Daniel Boone had when he cut his way through the
00:29:33 underbrush with one hand and fought off Indians with the other in order that you and I might
00:29:39 enjoy the matchless privilege of living in America.
00:29:43 Hooray!
00:29:44 Hooray!
00:29:45 Hooray!
00:29:48 When Fulton invented the steamboat, they said he was crazy.
00:29:52 When the Wright brothers announced that they were going to fly through the air like birds,
00:29:56 all the cracker barrel wise men gave them a laugh.
00:30:00 When Colonel Lindbergh was preparing to cross the Atlantic, all the wisecrackers said that
00:30:04 he'd better take water wings with him.
00:30:06 When the Warner brothers pioneered Vitaphone talking pictures, they all laughed at them
00:30:11 too.
00:30:12 And that's the way it's always been, boys.
00:30:14 The pioneer is responsible for all progress.
00:30:18 And in helping to make the Golden Gate Artificial Rubber Company a success, you will be pioneers,
00:30:24 opening up a new field of industry, bringing comfort, convenience, and wealth not only
00:30:30 to yourselves, but to thousands.
00:30:33 Hooray!
00:30:38 Boys, it's that golden opportunity that knocks but once at every man's door.
00:30:44 But this time, it's not only knocking, it's battering the door down to bring you fortunes.
00:30:50 Now you string along with me, men, and you'll never have to worry about money again.
00:30:55 That silver lining will be covered with gold.
00:30:57 Those dreams will all come true.
00:31:00 There'll be no more troubles.
00:31:01 You can pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and smile.
00:31:05 Smile!
00:31:06 Smile!
00:31:07 Pack up your troubles in your own kit bag and smile, smile, smile.
00:31:13 Louder!
00:31:14 Like your bag, smile, boys, that's the style.
00:31:20 What's the use of worrying if never was the time?
00:31:27 So pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and smile, smile, smile.
00:31:34 [CHEERING]
00:31:37 [HORN HONKING]
00:31:40 [CHEERING]
00:31:44 [CHATTER]
00:31:47 [HORN HONKING]
00:32:10 Sorry, Mr. Evans is in conference.
00:32:13 [CHATTER]
00:32:16 Get me Chester Hawkins at Tumbleweed, New Mexico.
00:32:32 I'd like to see this guy's face when he gets this call.
00:32:34 Yes, Hawkins.
00:32:36 Old man Hawkins' son, yeah.
00:32:38 Hello, Shapiro, is that you?
00:32:41 Hey, are you looking fine?
00:32:45 Hey, listen, Shapiro, opportunity is knocking on your door.
00:32:49 You hear it?
00:32:51 Well, well, I'm glad to hear your voice, Mr. Hawkins.
00:32:54 I want you in on it, and then I will talk to the Wall Street brokers.
00:32:57 But I'm going to tell you one thing, I want you in on it first.
00:32:59 I purchased 100 shares myself.
00:33:01 That's how good I think it is.
00:33:03 This is the biggest proposition since the Boulder Dam.
00:33:06 Yes, Mr. Hawkins.
00:33:07 Now listen, Shapiro, you know why I'm letting you in?
00:33:10 It's because you're a fine fellow.
00:33:12 And heaven knows there's few of them around.
00:33:14 This has got to be the chance of a lifetime to make yourself a fortune.
00:33:17 Why, you can't possibly go wrong.
00:33:19 I've been with 35 firms in the last 25 years.
00:33:21 I've never seen such a wonderful organization as this.
00:33:24 Yes, Mr. Hawkins, of course.
00:33:26 Why, absolutely, you'll double your money in less than six months.
00:33:29 All you've got to do is buy this stock.
00:33:31 You'll be as rich as cream.
00:33:33 Yes, Mr. Hawkins.
00:33:34 Why, you can't go wrong.
00:33:36 And fortunes are made overnight in Golden Gate stock.
00:33:38 Yes, Mr. Hawkins.
00:33:40 I wouldn't steer you wrong.
00:33:41 You think I take any money out of my salary? Absolutely not.
00:33:44 I put it right back in the firm. That's what I do.
00:33:46 That's what all good men do.
00:33:47 And another thing, let me tell you one thing.
00:33:49 How many shares would you like?
00:33:50 Why, I'd make it 500 shares.
00:33:52 It'll be delivered to you in the morning.
00:33:54 Absolutely, Mr. Hawkins.
00:33:56 You know, you've got to have rubber for everything.
00:33:58 Cure, lead pencils, auto tires, heels, chewing gum, checks, bands, orchestras, and even balls.
00:34:05 You know, rubber ones.
00:34:07 I bounce three or four of them off my head and I have Sunday in Coney Island.
00:34:10 Absolutely, Mr. Hawkins.
00:34:12 Is Helen still in there?
00:34:14 Yes, taking dictation.
00:34:16 Well, he has a lot to say.
00:34:17 She spends half her days and evenings taking dictation.
00:34:21 You don't have to be jealous of Gar Evans.
00:34:23 No, he has all you women hypnotized.
00:34:25 You think Helen's in love with him?
00:34:27 No, she's in love with me.
00:34:29 She always has had a weakness for big people, though.
00:34:31 You know, second lieutenants and movie actors.
00:34:34 [Ticking Clock]
00:34:51 Well, sir.
00:34:52 Can I please...
00:34:54 Have you an appointment?
00:34:56 No, but I...
00:34:57 Then you can't see him.
00:34:59 Who?
00:35:00 Whoever you want to see.
00:35:02 But I...
00:35:03 I'll come back later.
00:35:05 Will you please keep your tie up over that collar button?
00:35:29 Whew!
00:35:30 Sweet essence of musk.
00:35:32 Say, what are you trying to do?
00:35:34 Give this place a bad name?
00:35:35 I've got to dress right.
00:35:36 Yes, but you don't have to smell like an old fluff.
00:35:38 Oh, no, sir.
00:35:39 Say, and by the way, you were seen chasing a dame through the hunting room of the Astor.
00:35:43 It wasn't the Astor.
00:35:45 For the love of heaven.
00:35:47 When you make your girls use indelible lip-ruse, just look at that.
00:35:49 Yes, sir.
00:35:51 And furthermore, I don't like all this night work.
00:35:54 Do you want me to lose my job?
00:35:55 Well, I wish you would.
00:35:57 Then you'd have to marry me, and right away, too.
00:35:59 You know I will, Jeffery dear.
00:36:02 When we have more money saved up.
00:36:04 Did you go to the Fifth Avenue luncheon today?
00:36:06 I was the guest of honor.
00:36:08 How did it go over?
00:36:09 The roast beef was too rare.
00:36:11 I mean your speech.
00:36:12 Oh, very successful.
00:36:14 Did you make the right gestures, the way we rehearsed it?
00:36:16 Trust me, I made a deep impression.
00:36:18 I got a great hand with that speech yesterday at the undertaker's luncheon.
00:36:21 And tomorrow I deliver it at the...
00:36:24 At the taxi driver's association.
00:36:27 Taxidermist's association.
00:36:29 I have an important caller in my office. May I see him now?
00:36:31 Who is it?
00:36:32 This man wants to confer a big honor on me.
00:36:34 What? Judge in a beauty contest?
00:36:36 No.
00:36:37 Along with ten other big American executives, I've been invited to endorse Pluto Water.
00:36:42 Well, how will that move Golden Gate stock?
00:36:45 No, no, no. Absolutely no.
00:36:48 Well, can I endorse ye's?
00:36:51 Not unless I can tie it up with rubber.
00:36:54 Oh, baby, it's great to have you around.
00:37:08 For luck charm?
00:37:09 No, because I love you.
00:37:11 I say, when you're around, I can hit on all twelve.
00:37:14 The sun shines so bright that I have to wear dark glasses.
00:37:17 I couldn't get on without you.
00:37:19 You were without me last night.
00:37:21 Oh, baby, say, I'm terribly sorry about that.
00:37:23 But, you know, I have to play bridge with that rich widow.
00:37:25 You know, Mrs. Miller, who owns that acreage over in Jersey,
00:37:28 where we're going to put up our first factory? It was very important.
00:37:31 Well, what about tonight?
00:37:33 Suppose we have dinner at the Ritz and then go to Follies.
00:37:35 Great. And I can wear that new Irwin wrap you gave me.
00:37:37 Oh, baby, you'll make the other women look like country girls at a sewing bee,
00:37:41 say, the way you walk into a room.
00:37:43 Well, I'd love you for that alone,
00:37:45 even if there weren't a thousand other reasons.
00:37:47 You know, I think you're about the nicest, drunken,
00:37:49 no-good, two-timing, irresponsible scoundrel I ever met.
00:37:53 And I think you're just the finest, squarest little gal
00:37:55 that these old eyes have ever seen.
00:37:57 Gawd, listen. Gawd, this is important.
00:38:02 Now, look. Look.
00:38:03 What?
00:38:04 This is the attorney for the rubber interests.
00:38:06 Oh.
00:38:08 What does he want?
00:38:10 Maybe nothing, since you kept him waiting so long.
00:38:12 You'd better show him in right away, darling.
00:38:14 Yes, sir.
00:38:16 You'd better wipe that lip rouge off.
00:38:18 Oh, yes, Bobby.
00:38:26 Five thousand shares, huh? Good work.
00:38:28 Right.
00:38:30 I want you to take a full page on the next issue of the Saturday Evening Post.
00:38:33 If I write my own copy.
00:38:35 Okay.
00:38:36 Ship those other calls over to Mr. Gray.
00:38:38 How do you do, Mr. Banks?
00:38:39 How do you do, sir?
00:38:40 Sorry to have kept you waiting. Sit down, won't you?
00:38:41 Thank you. Do you have a cigar?
00:38:42 I don't care to smoke, thank you.
00:38:44 Now, Mr. Banks, what can I do for you?
00:38:46 Mr. Evans, I've read several articles in the paper lately,
00:38:48 saying that you have a process for making artificial rubber.
00:38:51 We have.
00:38:52 Would you be interested in allowing us to inspect your patent?
00:38:55 If you can make rubber, we might make you an offer for them.
00:38:58 What do you call an offer?
00:39:01 Fifty thousand dollars.
00:39:03 Fif...
00:39:04 [laughs]
00:39:06 Why, that isn't an offer.
00:39:08 That's an insult.
00:39:10 Those are our terms.
00:39:11 Good day, Mr. Banks.
00:39:14 Now, by the way, I noticed your stock dropped another two points on the market yesterday.
00:39:18 You don't think for a minute that you can fight a billion-dollar concern, do you?
00:39:21 With artificial rubber, I can fight a five-billion-dollar concern.
00:39:24 Listen here, Evans.
00:39:25 In the first place, we don't believe that you can make artificial rubber.
00:39:28 And your kind didn't believe in flying machines, either.
00:39:30 And before you sell any more stock, you'll have to prove that you can make artificial rubber.
00:39:35 [footsteps]
00:39:37 Say, hasn't the colonel shown up with that inventor yet?
00:39:41 Oh, Mr. Evans!
00:39:44 How do you do?
00:39:46 How do you do, Mrs. Miller?
00:39:48 You naughty man!
00:39:50 You didn't come in for bridge last night.
00:39:52 And I missed you so.
00:39:55 Oh, I'm terribly sorry, Mrs. Miller, but I have...
00:39:57 I have to attend a conference.
00:39:59 Well, anyway, I'm going to go and get my coat.
00:40:01 I have to attend a conference.
00:40:03 Well, anyway, I brought the Liberty Bonds with me.
00:40:06 Oh, good, good.
00:40:08 Mrs. Miller, you're as keen a businesswoman as you are charming.
00:40:11 And heaven knows there are few of them around.
00:40:13 [laughs]
00:40:15 Are you going to be busy tonight?
00:40:17 Oh, I'm terribly afraid that I'll...
00:40:19 Oh, Mr. Gray, I want you to meet the president of our company.
00:40:24 Oh.
00:40:25 Mr. Clifford Gray, Mrs. Miller.
00:40:27 Delighted, Mrs. Miller.
00:40:28 The president. How do you do?
00:40:31 Now, isn't that a coincidence?
00:40:33 Mr. Gray was telling me just before you came in...
00:40:35 that he wished he had someone charming and entertaining to take to dinner tonight.
00:40:38 Well, you are in luck.
00:40:39 Yes.
00:40:40 Suppose you personally escort Mrs. Miller to the bookkeeper's window...
00:40:43 and help her to exchange those Liberty Bonds for shares in Golden Gate.
00:40:47 Mr. President, I shall be delighted.
00:40:49 [laughs]
00:40:51 Delighted.
00:40:53 Now, listen, honey.
00:40:57 Ah, Colonel!
00:40:59 Ooh, how I hate that guy, especially those spats.
00:41:07 Oh, Colonel Genverg.
00:41:10 But listen, honey...
00:41:11 No alibis.
00:41:13 Did you find him?
00:41:14 No, I've been running my legs off.
00:41:15 I just been to every hotel in New York City for the third time.
00:41:17 I think you'd better go to the police.
00:41:18 I did already.
00:41:19 Did you try the hospitals?
00:41:20 He wasn't there neither.
00:41:21 What about New Jersey?
00:41:22 We've searched everywhere with a fine tooth comb.
00:41:24 Let me tell you something.
00:41:25 The attorney for the rubber interest was just up here with a mouthful of threats.
00:41:28 And yesterday, the Better Business League had another investigator up here...
00:41:30 to find out when we're going to make artificial rubber.
00:41:32 Now, if you don't find your inventor, we're going to be in a hot spot.
00:41:35 You're going to be in a hotter spot if you don't tell me where you were last night.
00:41:39 Well, all right, Francine. I'll tell you the truth.
00:41:46 That'll be a novelty.
00:41:48 Colonel Genverg got into a little trouble and I had to try to help him out.
00:41:52 The girl threatens to sue.
00:41:53 Give the company a black eye.
00:41:54 Was she a showgirl?
00:41:55 Well, yes, she was.
00:41:57 It's true, Francine.
00:41:59 You boys try to think up something I haven't heard before.
00:42:04 Now you've got me to a jam with Francine.
00:42:11 And is everything all right with my girl?
00:42:12 Everything's all wrong. She wants to marry you.
00:42:14 Why don't you marry her?
00:42:15 Well, how can I? I ain't divorced from my second wife yet.
00:42:17 Well, then why did you promise to marry her?
00:42:19 Well, you said yourself it's no crime to exaggerate.
00:42:22 A long-distance call for Colonel Genverg.
00:42:26 Oh, maybe that's about the inventor.
00:42:27 Wait. Give it to the colonel in my office. Quick.
00:42:30 Hello? Yes?
00:42:35 This is Colonel Genverg.
00:42:37 What?
00:42:38 What?
00:42:39 I told you that was a crazy title, Colonel Genverg.
00:42:42 Now they want me to march in the parade.
00:42:44 The God.
00:42:45 Jimmy.
00:42:46 The attorney for the rubber interest was just here, shooting off his mouth.
00:42:49 It's worse than that.
00:42:50 They've already got the attorney general investigating you.
00:42:52 And they're trying to get an injunction to stop you from selling the stock.
00:42:54 Well, how can we protect ourselves?
00:42:56 Your best bet is a clean bill of health from the better businessmen.
00:42:58 And a fat chance of that with your inventor out of the picture.
00:43:00 Well, you'll have to go through with your prospect to start making artificial rubber without him somehow.
00:43:04 We've broken grounds for a factory and nobody can read the formula but the inventor.
00:43:06 Have you tried any other scientists?
00:43:08 I've had a dozen chemists up here and they can't make head or tails of it. It must be in code.
00:43:11 But don't worry. I'll find that inventor if I have to turn over every stone in New York.
00:43:14 New Jersey, too.
00:43:15 What happens if the inventor is dead?
00:43:17 A stretch in Atlanta for using the mails to defraud.
00:43:19 I didn't say for sure he was dead.
00:43:21 It looks bad.
00:43:22 Don't say that.
00:43:23 Never give up till they count 13 over you.
00:43:25 I'll get the greatest chemists and engineers in the world.
00:43:27 We're not licked by a long shot. No, sir.
00:43:29 I've got a factory, a formula, the money for our stock is rolling in.
00:43:31 I'll make artificial rubber if I have to make it out of your hide.
00:43:36 (speaking in Italian)
00:43:38 Ah, good day.
00:43:56 I chose for an option my dear countrymen.
00:43:58 Oh, delighted, delighted.
00:44:00 Always glad to meet the good people who will share our profits.
00:44:03 Let me present Signore and Signore,
00:44:05 Salvatore, Roberti, Pasquale, and Bacianelli.
00:44:09 And this is Giovanni and this is Pasquale.
00:44:12 We're always glad to meet French people.
00:44:14 (speaking in Italian)
00:44:16 And this is Signor God Evans, our manager.
00:44:19 Delighted, delighted.
00:44:21 And this is Colonel Ginsberg.
00:44:23 Salute, Colonel.
00:44:25 I told you it was a crazy title.
00:44:27 Why don't you show your friends around?
00:44:29 Thank you, I will.
00:44:30 (speaking in Italian)
00:44:32 (speaking in Italian)
00:44:46 (shouting)
00:44:48 Absolutely, Mr. Hawkins.
00:45:04 (speaking in Italian)
00:45:11 (speaking in Italian)
00:45:13 Morning.
00:45:16 Good morning.
00:45:17 Mr. Evans in?
00:45:18 Yes, Mr. Papoulas.
00:45:19 Mr. Evans is in his office.
00:45:21 I have two of my countrymen.
00:45:22 I want him to see them.
00:45:24 (speaking in Italian)
00:45:27 Oh, Mr. Evans, I brought two of my countrymen with me.
00:45:38 I want you to meet them.
00:45:39 Delighted.
00:45:40 Delighted.
00:45:41 Always happy to meet the good people
00:45:42 who will share our profits.
00:45:43 Thank you.
00:45:44 Thank you.
00:45:45 They are in the flower business.
00:45:46 Give them an order.
00:45:47 (speaking in Italian)
00:45:48 Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:45:49 Thank you.
00:45:50 Not at all, not at all.
00:45:51 Now, suppose you show these gentlemen around the offices.
00:45:53 Thank you, Mr. Evans.
00:45:54 Thank you.
00:45:55 I rather see what they will enjoy,
00:45:56 our beautiful sweet Amor.
00:45:57 (speaking in Italian)
00:45:59 It's a great pleasure.
00:46:00 (speaking in Italian)
00:46:03 (chattering)
00:46:05 Still sore at me?
00:46:14 Shouldn't I be?
00:46:16 No, of course not.
00:46:18 What's your alibi for last night?
00:46:21 Well, you'll step in here, I'll tell you.
00:46:24 (footsteps)
00:46:26 Now, baby, strange as it may seem,
00:46:40 I told you the truth.
00:46:42 The Colonel really did get into a little jam of the sugar.
00:46:45 Well, I sat in my room for five hours
00:46:47 smelling orchids that a South American gentleman sent me.
00:46:50 You know, orchids don't smell.
00:46:52 I'm sorry, honey, but there are lots of things
00:46:54 that have to be done on a deal of this kind
00:46:56 that aren't altogether nice.
00:46:58 But when this is over and we're in the money,
00:47:00 I promise you, Francine--
00:47:01 Somehow I can't believe you, Gar.
00:47:03 Oh, we've been through a lot together,
00:47:05 but this time I just can't believe you.
00:47:07 Ah, but you've got to.
00:47:08 Well, I don't.
00:47:09 Oh, Gar, sometimes I wonder if you ever are on the level.
00:47:13 Well, Francine, I'll prove to you
00:47:20 that I'm on the level in this deal.
00:47:23 Here's a stock certificate
00:47:27 for 51% of the voting stock of Golden Gate Rubber.
00:47:31 That means control of the company.
00:47:34 Well, Francine,
00:47:37 I'm giving this to you.
00:47:40 It's yours.
00:47:43 Now when the payoff comes, you'll be the big boss.
00:47:45 What do you think of that?
00:47:48 Ooh, I'm sorry.
00:47:51 It's all right, come in.
00:47:54 Well?
00:47:57 Mr. Evans, I wanted to ask you something.
00:47:59 Go right ahead.
00:48:00 Do you really believe Golden Gate
00:48:01 will make a lot of money for the stockholders?
00:48:03 I certainly do.
00:48:04 You see, a friend of mine is going to be married soon.
00:48:07 She and her sweetheart have saved a little money,
00:48:09 but not enough to start life.
00:48:11 But she gave me this cash for 300 shares.
00:48:14 And asked me to invest it for her in our company.
00:48:18 That's not your money.
00:48:20 Oh, no, sir, no.
00:48:22 Well, what's her hurry?
00:48:25 She wants to invest it
00:48:26 before the new price goes into effect tomorrow.
00:48:28 Oh, I see.
00:48:29 Well, why doesn't she wait until--
00:48:31 There's no chance of it going wrong, is there?
00:48:33 Oh, no, please take it, please.
00:48:36 Oh, son.
00:48:38 Yes, sir?
00:48:39 I got a letter from the bank.
00:48:41 Oh, son.
00:48:42 Yes, sir?
00:48:43 Give this to the bookkeeper
00:48:44 and have him record the sale, 300 shares.
00:48:46 Certainly, Mr. Evans.
00:48:47 Oh, Mr. Evans, you're the kindest man in the world.
00:48:50 I could just kiss you.
00:48:52 Hey, what is this?
00:48:53 Oh, Jeffrey.
00:48:54 Now, don't be a sap.
00:48:55 I'm not a sap, but I believe what I see.
00:48:57 Now, listen, son.
00:48:58 Don't you son me.
00:49:00 Can you use a referee?
00:49:01 I came in on him and he had his arms around her
00:49:03 and was kissing her.
00:49:04 It's crazy.
00:49:05 Go on, I like bedtime stories.
00:49:07 Well, I still couldn't find them.
00:49:10 What is this, a tea party in the middle of the afternoon?
00:49:14 Just a minute.
00:49:16 Get all the books in the cash tube.
00:49:18 Say, where are you going?
00:49:19 You'll find out in a minute.
00:49:21 What's up?
00:49:24 Maybe some new salesmen.
00:49:26 Well, what do you want?
00:49:28 I'm from the Attorney General's office.
00:49:30 I want to serve this injunction order.
00:49:32 Is Colonel Ginsberg here?
00:49:35 The Colonel is down in Kentucky.
00:49:38 Then I want to see Mr. Clifford Gray.
00:49:40 I believe I heard my name called.
00:49:42 Here's a little present for you.
00:49:44 Oh, thanks.
00:49:45 I suppose this is some new honor conferred upon me.
00:49:48 Sure, this honor carries a set of striped pajamas with it.
00:49:51 Just a minute, buddy.
00:49:52 It's no use.
00:49:53 Come back.
00:49:54 My men have already got the cash and books.
00:49:57 Now, you understand what that order means.
00:50:03 Your funds are tied up
00:50:05 and you're not to sell any more stock.
00:50:08 Get me?
00:50:09 If we can't sell any more stock, we're ruined.
00:50:14 Then our money's lost.
00:50:16 What money?
00:50:17 I gave Mr. Evans all the money we had to get married on.
00:50:20 What?
00:50:21 Why didn't you tell me that was your money?
00:50:22 I thought you'd fire me.
00:50:24 Oh, so you made a play for us so you could steal all our money, huh?
00:50:27 Well, you'll go to jail for this.
00:50:29 I never heard so much talk about jail.
00:50:31 Come on, Helen.
00:50:32 Let's get out of here and stay out.
00:50:34 Will you pardon me?
00:50:35 Anytime.
00:50:36 Well, Gar, this is the rummiest thing you've done yet,
00:50:45 selling stock to that kid.
00:50:47 Now you have promoted yourself right out of my life.
00:50:50 I didn't know they'd got an injunction.
00:50:52 If we could locate that inventor, we could solve it in a second.
00:50:55 You couldn't sell me another share of Gar Evans' common.
00:50:58 Awful common.
00:50:59 Oh, but honey...
00:51:00 Don't honey me.
00:51:01 I've had my last sting.
00:51:04 Now, did we need that fancy desk?
00:51:07 Oh, think of something else.
00:51:09 You think of something.
00:51:10 All you've done so far is throw away my money and call me colonel.
00:51:13 Say, fold up.
00:51:14 You double-crossed me from the start.
00:51:16 You said you had the inventor in your pocket.
00:51:18 Oh, did I know that I had a hole in my pocket?
00:51:20 Good afternoon.
00:51:24 Just a minute.
00:51:25 Look, I beg your pardon.
00:51:26 What is it? What is it?
00:51:27 I came in response to your...
00:51:29 No, no, no.
00:51:30 Rudolph!
00:51:31 Oh, Rudolph!
00:51:32 Rudolph!
00:51:33 Rudolph!
00:51:34 Oh, my little Rudolph!
00:51:35 What's this?
00:51:36 The inventor, sewage himself!
00:51:38 Oh, holy cat, man, come in!
00:51:40 Come in tomorrow.
00:51:41 Come into my private office, man.
00:51:43 Come in.
00:51:44 Go right into my private office.
00:51:46 I'm glad to see you.
00:51:47 Sit down there, if you will.
00:51:48 That's fine.
00:51:49 Let me have your hat.
00:51:50 Your stick.
00:51:51 That's better.
00:51:52 I understand you've been trying to get in touch with me.
00:51:55 Yes, yes, ma'am.
00:51:56 Where were you, Rudolph?
00:51:57 Where were you?
00:51:58 Well, when you gave me that money for my invention, $300,
00:52:01 I moved.
00:52:03 But today I went back to the Mills Hotel to see some of the boys,
00:52:06 and the clerk gave me these messages.
00:52:08 You live for me.
00:52:09 Oh, Rudolph, how we missed you!
00:52:11 How we missed you!
00:52:12 Well, Mr., not Mr.,
00:52:14 Doctor, Dr. Pfeiffer.
00:52:16 Oh, Dr. Pfeiffer.
00:52:17 Here, have a cigar.
00:52:18 Thank you.
00:52:19 Oh, how we missed you.
00:52:21 Oh, my little inventor.
00:52:23 Oh, Rudy, Rudy, Rudy.
00:52:26 Oh, my little inventor.
00:52:28 Mr. Hackett from the Better Business League.
00:52:30 Bring him in.
00:52:31 Yes, sir.
00:52:32 This is great.
00:52:33 Now, Mr. Hackett.
00:52:34 Well, here I am again.
00:52:35 I'm delighted to see you.
00:52:36 Colonel, meet Mr. Hackett of the Better Business League.
00:52:39 How do you do, Colonel?
00:52:40 How do you do, Mr. Hackett?
00:52:41 How is business?
00:52:42 Well, I'm sorry to have to be such a nuisance,
00:52:44 but after all, the public must be protected.
00:52:46 Absolutely.
00:52:47 Mr. Hackett, we've got a great proposition for the public,
00:52:49 and we'd like you to say so.
00:52:50 Well, I'd be glad to, if it's possible.
00:52:52 But where is that inventor?
00:52:53 Allow me to present Dr. Rudolph Pfeiffer,
00:52:55 inventor of the celebrated Golden Gate process.
00:52:58 Delighted, Doctor.
00:52:59 Thank you.
00:53:00 Have you been experimenting long, Doctor?
00:53:02 All my life.
00:53:03 Now, where did you receive your degree, Doctor?
00:53:06 Which one?
00:53:07 Well, have you more than one?
00:53:08 Rudolph, they only need one.
00:53:10 Sure, I have three.
00:53:11 He's a great educated man, Mr. Hackett.
00:53:13 Well, that's rather remarkable.
00:53:14 Thank you.
00:53:15 I got my M.D. in Heidelberg.
00:53:17 Oh, Germany.
00:53:18 And my Ph.D. in Zurich.
00:53:20 Switzerland.
00:53:21 But my degree in chemistry...
00:53:22 Yeah, that's what we're really interested in.
00:53:24 I got in the United States just ten years ago.
00:53:27 Where?
00:53:28 Not a good middle college, but a very fine one.
00:53:30 It's in Michigan.
00:53:31 Oh, Michigan, huh?
00:53:32 Yes, the University of Northeastern Jefferson, at Detroit.
00:53:36 Well, I must confess, Doctor, that I'd never heard of this university.
00:53:39 But we'll have a little look into it and let you know.
00:53:42 Doctor, it's been a pleasure.
00:53:43 Thank you.
00:53:44 You'll hear soon.
00:53:45 Good day, gentlemen.
00:53:46 Good day, Mr. Hackett.
00:53:47 Good bye, Mr. Hackett.
00:53:48 Oh, you little Pfeiffer, you.
00:53:49 Oh, how we miss you.
00:53:50 Oh, no good thieving Mills Hotel louse.
00:53:53 Hold on, Mr. Evans.
00:53:54 You're insulting the doctor.
00:53:55 Doctor in my best.
00:53:56 He's no doctor.
00:53:57 What do you mean?
00:53:58 In 1922, I ran a diploma mill at Detroit.
00:54:00 The university was in a bathroom.
00:54:02 I sold this miserable shyster his degree in chemistry for $17.50.
00:54:06 What?
00:54:07 Oh, you Pfeiffer, you.
00:54:10 Just a minute.
00:54:11 Did you get Francine?
00:54:12 No answer, Mr. Evans.
00:54:13 Well, keep on until you get another.
00:54:15 Yes, Mr. Evans.
00:54:16 Golden Gate Artificial Rubber Company.
00:54:18 Hello?
00:54:20 Colonel Ginsberg?
00:54:22 He's very busy right now.
00:54:24 Oh, my little Pfeiffer.
00:54:32 It smells like you're burning rubber, all right.
00:54:42 Well, how's it going?
00:54:47 Fine.
00:54:48 Never had such a fine laboratory.
00:54:50 Now, there's no doubt about it.
00:54:51 You really will make rubber.
00:54:53 Of course I will.
00:54:54 I'll prove it before I get through.
00:54:56 Why, Mr. Evans, as I told you last night, I've studied chemistry all my life.
00:55:00 In Germany, I worked in the biggest chemical factory in the world.
00:55:03 I've always been experimenting, but I realized I couldn't get far without a diploma, so that's why I bought one.
00:55:11 You shouldn't hold that against me.
00:55:13 Well, it's up to you.
00:55:14 We've got to make rubber or I'll go to jail.
00:55:16 Rubber you shall have.
00:55:18 Good rubber from sewage.
00:55:20 How soon will it be ready?
00:55:21 24 hours.
00:55:22 I pledge you one my life.
00:55:24 It's one or the other.
00:55:30 Does he seem to know what he's doing?
00:55:32 Sure, he's a smart little fella.
00:55:34 But he acts so strange.
00:55:36 Ah, don't let that worry you.
00:55:38 All inventors are a little nuts.
00:55:45 A lot of newspaper reporters outside, Mr. Evans.
00:55:47 Show them in.
00:55:48 Yes, sir.
00:55:52 Hi, Mr. Evans.
00:55:53 Hello, Mr. Evans.
00:55:54 Ah, gentlemen of the press.
00:55:55 How are you boys?
00:55:56 Cigar?
00:55:57 Sure.
00:55:58 What's the news, Mr. Evans?
00:55:59 Rubber people say they're going to put you in jail.
00:56:01 Oh, yes?
00:56:03 Well, boys, naturally the rubber interests are fighting me.
00:56:06 We're going to put them out of business.
00:56:08 They're fighting for their lives, and they're using all the methods known so well by predatory interests.
00:56:15 But you can understand that.
00:56:16 When a man's back's to the wall, he doesn't fight with markers or Queensberry rules.
00:56:20 But I get this, boys.
00:56:22 The rubber people say that I can't make rubber.
00:56:25 Well, here's a challenge.
00:56:27 I invite a committee of the greatest American scientists to come here tomorrow at this time and inspect our process.
00:56:33 And the rubber people can name the scientists.
00:56:35 Now, is that fair?
00:56:37 Fair.
00:56:38 How about using your telephone?
00:56:39 Go ahead.
00:56:40 Right ahead.
00:56:41 There are more phones out there, boys.
00:56:42 All right.
00:56:46 Hello, Joe.
00:56:47 Here's a story on the Golden Gate Artificial Case.
00:56:49 Now get this straight.
00:56:52 [Machine noise]
00:57:03 You know, I worked here all last night.
00:57:16 Well?
00:57:17 I took some sewage and cooked it with a formula for seven hours over a blue flame.
00:57:21 And what do you think happened?
00:57:23 What?
00:57:24 I burned a hole through the pot.
00:57:29 You think you got it, Doctor?
00:57:30 Oh, yes.
00:57:31 Most certainly.
00:57:32 Finest rubber you ever saw.
00:57:34 But, Mr. Evans, even if I couldn't make rubber, I've got another idea that's even better than this one.
00:57:40 Well, let's get the rubber first.
00:57:41 No, let me tell you about it.
00:57:43 Colonel, come here.
00:57:45 What?
00:57:46 Can you say a word to a living soul about this?
00:57:48 No, I won't tell anybody.
00:57:50 I'm working on an invention now to make hens lay Easter eggs with a color already on them.
00:57:59 If I was only a chicken, I could show you.
00:58:01 [Laughter]
00:58:14 A new hen.
00:58:18 How did I know he was a cuckoo?
00:58:24 You look well in stripes.
00:58:25 Make you look taller.
00:58:32 Hi, Mr. Manager.
00:58:34 We've come here with these flowers to wish ourselves, the stockholders, and you, Mr. Manager,
00:58:40 and this wonderful rubber company a great, big success.
00:58:46 Oh, thank you, gentlemen.
00:58:47 Most appropriate.
00:58:48 Me too.
00:58:49 Thank you.
00:58:50 Thank you.
00:58:51 Thank you.
00:58:52 Thank you.
00:58:53 Thank you.
00:58:54 Thank you.
00:58:55 Thank you.
00:58:56 Thank you.
00:58:57 [Crying]
00:59:06 [Crying]
00:59:20 You come to wish me success too?
00:59:24 No, luck.
00:59:26 They're going to serve the arrest order today, unless you leave the state.
00:59:34 Why don't you do it, Gar?
00:59:36 After all, Gray is president and Ginsberg the vice president.
00:59:39 Why don't you let them...
00:59:40 No, Jimmy.
00:59:41 If there's any rap to be taken, I'll take it myself.
00:59:43 I went into this deal with my eyes open.
00:59:45 I thought it was honest.
00:59:46 So did all of us.
00:59:47 We were fooled by a lunatic.
00:59:49 It isn't the rap I'm worried about.
00:59:51 It's how to take care of the saps who believed our publicity.
00:59:54 You're a swell guy, Gar.
00:59:56 Well, I guess I'll go out and arrange for your bail.
01:00:01 Yeah.
01:00:20 Mr. Evans.
01:00:21 Huh?
01:00:22 There's a man out here who says he must see you right away.
01:00:26 Well, I guess that's it, all right.
01:00:28 Send him in.
01:00:35 Well, Mr. Banks.
01:00:37 Well, that's funny.
01:00:39 You know, I was just reading something here that would interest you.
01:00:42 Uh, the price of rubber stocks.
01:00:44 The news of your arrest would interest me, too.
01:00:47 Mr. Banks, uh, sit down, won't you?
01:00:49 Thank you.
01:00:51 You know, you're making a great mistake.
01:00:53 You're just making a martyr out of me.
01:00:55 I'll get twice the publicity.
01:00:57 Heartless corporation persecutes inventor of artificial rubber.
01:01:01 Nobody with any brains will fall for that yarn about sewage and rubber.
01:01:04 Well, a great many have, and a great many more will.
01:01:06 In any case, you won't be able to sell any more stock.
01:01:09 The injunction is only temporary.
01:01:11 Meantime, there isn't a power on earth that can prevent me from sending out stories about artificial rubber,
01:01:15 from making talks over the radio, from--
01:01:17 Mr. Evans, I'll talk plainly to you now.
01:01:19 My clients are determined to stop you.
01:01:21 If we are able to get you out of this, clear up the stockholders' loss 100%.
01:01:25 Maybe a little bonus for you. Would you be amenable?
01:01:28 Mr. Banks, you got me wrong.
01:01:31 I'm a promoter, not a panhandler.
01:01:34 Mr. Evans, our lame accord's on the table.
01:01:37 I've really come here to make you a proposition.
01:01:39 But we're not interested.
01:01:40 But you must listen.
01:01:41 We know that you can't make rubber.
01:01:43 That is definite and final.
01:01:44 But we admit that all this publicity has done us a lot of harm.
01:01:47 And we want to buy up Golden Gate for its nuisance value.
01:01:50 Nuisance value?
01:01:51 Yes, that's all it is to us, a nuisance.
01:01:54 That and nothing more.
01:01:55 How much?
01:01:57 Well, we'll pay off the stockholders with interest,
01:01:59 reimburse you for all you've spent on advertising and promotion,
01:02:02 and give you a bonus for yourself of $100,000.
01:02:06 Now, that is for the control of the company.
01:02:08 I understand you have the controlling interest.
01:02:11 Oh, yes, I have.
01:02:12 Well, it's a windfall for you.
01:02:14 When must this be done?
01:02:17 Right away.
01:02:18 We want no manipulators to get hold of any of the outstanding stock.
01:02:21 Right away?
01:02:23 Now, if you'll sign this option,
01:02:25 I'll leave a check for you for $50,000 to buy in the deal.
01:02:29 Mr. Banks?
01:02:31 I'll do it.
01:02:33 Fine, fine.
01:02:35 And I'll make out the paper.
01:02:36 I'll get that certificate of stock.
01:02:39 Mike.
01:02:42 Get Francine on the phone right away and tell her I'm coming over to see her.
01:02:45 What's up?
01:02:46 I've got to get that stock certificate from her.
01:02:47 I've got a chance to sell the company.
01:02:49 Tell me more.
01:02:51 Now, Mr. Banks,
01:02:52 that stock certificate is in my safe deposit box.
01:02:54 I've just sent a man for it.
01:02:55 That's fine.
01:02:56 Then you'll have it in my office within the hour.
01:02:58 Oh, yes.
01:02:59 My people insist on this deal being closed this afternoon.
01:03:03 Quite right, yes.
01:03:04 Just sign here, please.
01:03:06 What would you like to see?
01:03:09 Oh, hello, Mr. Gray.
01:03:12 Were you going to a masquerade?
01:03:14 Yeah.
01:03:15 There's a...
01:03:17 just one more condition, Mr. Evans.
01:03:20 What's that?
01:03:21 With the controlling interest,
01:03:22 you'll have to transfer to us your president, Mr. Clifford Gray.
01:03:25 He strikes us as being a very astute businessman,
01:03:29 a man that knows his business.
01:03:31 Ah, yes.
01:03:32 He's been a close student of sewage.
01:03:34 With a real personality.
01:03:37 Oh, Mr. Evans...
01:03:38 Oh, Porter, put this in the next room, will you?
01:03:40 Just a minute.
01:03:41 Thank you.
01:03:42 Well, I guess that's all for the moment.
01:03:45 There you are, sir.
01:03:47 Fifty thousand.
01:03:48 I'll wait in my office for the certificate.
01:03:50 Within the hour.
01:03:51 Within the hour.
01:03:52 Good day, Mr. Banks.
01:03:53 Good day, sir.
01:03:54 Good day.
01:03:55 What's the matter?
01:03:56 I've got a problem.
01:03:57 What problem?
01:03:58 I've got a problem.
01:03:59 What's the matter?
01:04:00 I've got a problem.
01:04:01 What's the matter?
01:04:02 I've got a problem.
01:04:03 I've got a problem.
01:04:04 What's the matter?
01:04:05 I've got a problem.
01:04:06 What's the matter?
01:04:07 I've got a problem.
01:04:08 What's the matter?
01:04:09 I've got a problem.
01:04:10 What's the matter?
01:04:11 I've got a problem.
01:04:12 What's the matter?
01:04:13 I've got a problem.
01:04:14 What's the matter?
01:04:15 I've got a problem.
01:04:16 What's the matter?
01:04:17 I've got a problem.
01:04:18 What's the matter?
01:04:19 I've got a problem.
01:04:20 What's the matter?
01:04:21 I've got a problem.
01:04:22 What's the matter?
01:04:23 I've got a problem.
01:04:24 What's the matter?
01:04:25 I've got a problem.
01:04:26 What's the matter?
01:04:27 I've got a problem.
01:04:28 What's the matter?
01:04:29 I've got a problem.
01:04:30 What's the matter?
01:04:31 I've got a problem.
01:04:32 What's the matter?
01:04:33 I've got a problem.
01:04:34 What's the matter?
01:04:35 I've got a problem.
01:04:36 What's the matter?
01:04:37 I've got a problem.
