00:01:20Morning, Chief.
00:01:21Morning.
00:01:22Morning, sir.
00:01:23The market's a little better.
00:01:25Good morning.
00:01:26Well, carbide is up a little.
00:01:28Yeah.
00:01:29Morning, Mr. Ralston.
00:01:30Morning, Mr. Ralston.
00:01:31Morning.
00:01:32Morning, Mr. Ralston.
00:01:33Morning, T.T.
00:01:34Good morning, Tom.
00:01:35Good morning, Mr. Ralston.
00:01:36Morning, Mr. Ralston.
00:01:37Oh, T.T.
00:01:38What is everybody smiling about?
00:01:39What's so funny?
00:01:40Morning, sir.
00:01:41Good morning, Mr. Ralston.
00:01:42Morning, Mr. Ralston.
00:01:43No nonsense.
00:01:44Hiya, Chief.
00:01:46Good morning.
00:01:47Dick, I've got distressing news.
00:01:49Boy, come back later.
00:01:51What's that?
00:01:52Run along, run along.
00:01:53Hey, he's only done one shoe.
00:01:55Dick, we've got to get rid of Las Lomas quick,
00:01:58Silver, as soon as possible.
00:02:00I've got cauliflower ears from phoning.
00:02:02Just got as far as quick in the hang-up.
00:02:04Listen, I got $150,000 sunk in that blasted mine.
00:02:07We've got to get it out.
00:02:09Oh, but T.T.
00:02:10Look, drop everything else today.
00:02:12After all, this is my baby.
00:02:14Well, of all the babies we've had in this office,
00:02:16this one's really got circles under its eyes.
00:02:19Mr. Van Dusen is here.
00:02:20Hello.
00:02:21Oh, hello, Van.
00:02:22Hiya.
00:02:23Good morning, T.T.
00:02:24Good morning.
00:02:25Conference?
00:02:26No, no, not at all.
00:02:27I'm up at home.
00:02:28Will you have a cigarette?
00:02:29Oh, no, thanks.
00:02:30Did you see what Carbide did?
00:02:31Yes, sir.
00:02:32You certainly called that right.
00:02:33Van, you have plenty of nice, solid stuff.
00:02:35Now, I've got something really exciting for you.
00:02:38Something that you can play with.
00:02:40Yes?
00:02:41Yeah.
00:02:42Will you have a drink?
00:02:43Oh, it's a little early.
00:02:45This happens to be my own little pet.
00:02:48I got hold of a mine in New Mexico,
00:02:51quite by accident.
00:02:52Las Lomas quick, Silver.
00:02:55I'll take a bottle of pop.
00:02:58I don't care what you've heard.
00:03:00It's great stuff.
00:03:01Phone ringing
00:03:07Hello?
00:03:08Yes.
00:03:09Who?
00:03:10Oh, put him on, put him on.
00:03:12Hello, Bennett.
00:03:13Yes?
00:03:14Ah, that's good news, Steve.
00:03:16Yes.
00:03:17Come as soon as you can.
00:03:19Oh, all right, make it after lunch.
00:03:22That's fine, boy.
00:03:23Goodbye.
00:03:24That was young Bennett, Steve Bennett.
00:03:26He's consented.
00:03:27He's coming into the firm.
00:03:28I asked him last night.
00:03:29Well, fine choice.
00:03:30He just cracked up in his own business.
00:03:32Oh, I've had my eye on Steve for a long time.
00:03:34He's going to be all right.
00:03:35He's a little conservative, needs guidance.
00:03:38But he has good contacts.
00:03:39He could put all his customers into a cookie jar.
00:03:42But those he has speak very highly of him.
00:03:44When we take Bennett in, we'll take in his customers.
00:03:47He's just the man we need right now.
00:03:49Aye ho, quick, Silver.
00:03:51Why not?
00:03:52He'll sell it.
00:03:53He's got his wife sitting in that chair.
00:03:55You see, he's not married to my daughter.
00:03:57You boys go right ahead with your little family quarrel.
00:04:00I'll go and see if I've been wiped out.
00:04:03Yes, sir, Sam, I'm really falling into something.
00:04:06No more worries, no responsibilities, no ulcers.
00:04:09People beg for that Rawlston stock.
00:04:11All I'll have to do is come in in the morning,
00:04:13put my feet up on the desk, rock back, and go to sleep.
00:04:16Every once in a while, the door opens,
00:04:18a customer tiptoes in, takes the stock off the desk,
00:04:21leaves a check, and tiptoes out.
00:04:23Yeah, but who's gonna get up and open the door for them?
00:04:26I don't know, but they're not gonna make a drudge out of me.
00:04:29What are you keeping all these pictures from the old office for?
00:04:32They're awful heavy on my lap.
00:04:34Well, what's the use of going to college
00:04:35if you don't keep the pictures?
00:04:37Who are these fellas with these big spoons or something?
00:04:40Spoons?
00:04:41Those are oars.
00:04:43That's my rowing team, intercollegiate champs,
00:04:4529, 30, and 32.
00:04:47But what happened to 31?
00:04:49We found out where we hid the outboard motor.
00:04:52Snoops.
00:04:54Say, this is the office for me.
00:04:57The Taj Mahal with inkwells.
00:04:59Taj Mahu?
00:05:00How do you do?
00:05:02I'm Mr. Bennett.
00:05:03Oh, yes, how do you do, Mr. Bennett?
00:05:05We've been expecting you.
00:05:07Mr. Bennett is here, Mr. Rawlston.
00:05:09They ain't using pictures.
00:05:12Hello, Steve.
00:05:13Hello, T.T.
00:05:14Am I late?
00:05:15No, no, it's mighty good to have you with us.
00:05:17T.T. too?
00:05:18T.T.?
00:05:19Come on, Steve, I'll show you your office.
00:05:21Okay.
00:05:22I wish these pictures would carry me for a while.
00:05:24You don't know how happy I am.
00:05:26We're going to do great things together.
00:05:28Now, as soon as you get settled and comfortable,
00:05:30give me a buzz.
00:05:31Just got hold of something you'll be crazy about.
00:05:34The sweetest little issue.
00:05:35Oh, that mellow, easy stuff to handle?
00:05:37Yeah.
00:05:38That honey from Orchids?
00:05:39Mr. Rawlston.
00:05:40Yes?
00:05:41New Mexico is on the phone.
00:05:42I'll tell you about it later.
00:05:43Give me a buzz.
00:05:44All right, T.T.
00:05:45Great fella.
00:05:46My name goes right there.
00:05:48In chromium.
00:05:51Well, here we...
00:06:03Oh, I'm sure this is only temporary.
00:06:05That's for you to now get.
00:06:07No, I mean the office.
00:06:09Still, this must be my office.
00:06:11It's too small for a telephone booth.
00:06:15Don't do that!
00:06:16Gives me that buried alive feeling.
00:06:20Hey, what am I brooding about?
00:06:21This is only my outer office.
00:06:25Ah.
00:06:26I could really do things in an office like this.
00:06:29Stockbrokers are always backing shows, being angels.
00:06:34Oh, I beg your pardon.
00:06:36Stevie, come on in.
00:06:38Come on in, pal.
00:06:39Oh, I'm sorry, Mr...
00:06:41Honey, uh, Miss Graham,
00:06:43I want you to meet Mr. Bennett, one of my partners.
00:06:46Partner?
00:06:47Well, Mr. Donnelly's been promising
00:06:49we'd get together for some time.
00:06:51Oh, he has?
00:06:52Well, that's very nice.
00:06:53How do you do?
00:06:54When Dick Donnelly tells you you'll meet someone,
00:06:56you meet him.
00:06:57We've been, uh, talking about the green swan.
00:07:00The green?
00:07:01Yes, didn't Dickie tell you about the green swan?
00:07:04Oh, should he?
00:07:05I...
00:07:06I mean, do you think I'm old enough to know?
00:07:08Her show, Stevie, her show.
00:07:11The one Linda's going to star in.
00:07:13You know, I told you all about it.
00:07:15He loved it.
00:07:16Oh, the swan, yes,
00:07:18that part where you come on with the thing
00:07:20and that fellow ran with the McGill...
00:07:22Oh, I thought I'd die laughing.
00:07:24It's supposed to be a serious drama.
00:07:26Yes, well, so long.
00:07:28Oh, tell me, Mr. Bennett,
00:07:30Did you, uh, like it well enough
00:07:32to put any money into it?
00:07:34Huh?
00:07:35Did he like it well enough
00:07:37to want to put 15 grand in it?
00:07:40Oh.
00:07:41I must have been crazy about it.
00:07:43Oh, Mr. Bennett, how can I thank you?
00:07:46You won't regret it, really, you won't.
00:07:49We'll give Broadway something really fine this season.
00:07:52Yeah, lucky Broadway.
00:07:54Oh, well, I'd better go.
00:07:56It's a customer.
00:07:58They get very impatient,
00:08:00so I, uh, might hurt his head.
00:08:02Well, you take...
00:08:04Well, good-bye.
00:08:06But, Mr. Bennett!
00:08:08Hey, Samuel, get some bricks and mortar.
00:08:11We're going to seal up this door.
00:08:13In the meantime, put a rat trap there.
00:08:16Oh, they brought the things, huh?
00:08:18That's good.
00:08:20I want to get that list of my customers.
00:08:23Ah, there it is.
00:08:25Well, good-bye.
00:08:27Good-bye.
00:08:28Hello, Betty.
00:08:30Hello, Miss Saunders.
00:08:31Say, I like your hair that way.
00:08:33Oh, thank you, Miss Saunders.
00:08:35Good afternoon.
00:08:36Good afternoon.
00:08:37Hello.
00:08:38Oh, Miss Saunders,
00:08:39I want to thank you for sending those books to Freddy.
00:08:42But I'm afraid they're a little old for him.
00:08:45Oh, well, he'll grow into them.
00:08:47Here, Doc.
00:08:48Oh, hello.
00:08:49Hello.
00:08:50Tell Uncle Pudgy, Mr. Rogers,
00:08:52that I have to see him right away.
00:08:54It's really important.
00:08:55Certainly, Miss Saunders.
00:08:56How have you been?
00:08:57Just fine.
00:08:58Mr. Rolston, your niece is here to see you.
00:09:00Uh-oh.
00:09:01Did you tell her I was in?
00:09:03Yes, she's right here.
00:09:05Well, tell her the office is full of people.
00:09:07We're awfully sorry,
00:09:09but the office is full of people.
00:09:11Oh, it is.
00:09:12Well, try Mr. Donnelly.
00:09:16Mr. Donnelly, Miss Saunders is here.
00:09:18Shall I send her in?
00:09:20No, no, no.
00:09:21Tell her I just jumped out the window.
00:09:23Tell her anything, anything.
00:09:27Shh.
00:09:28Gwen is out there.
00:09:30I know.
00:09:31What are you doing?
00:09:33I forgot to plug up one leak in the dike.
00:09:40Hello, J.P.
00:09:41J.P. Carter, please.
00:09:43Hello, J.P.?
00:09:44This is T.T.
00:09:45Say, has my niece Gwen been there to see you?
00:09:48Oh, she hasn't.
00:09:49Good.
00:09:50And, Joe, she's mixed up in another charity scheme.
00:09:53Uh, listen, Joe.
00:09:54In a week moment,
00:09:55I promised to double it
00:09:56if she could raise 20,000 or more
00:09:58by the first of the month.
00:09:59Well, hand some off
00:10:00with the first of the month tomorrow.
00:10:02Now, when she gets to you,
00:10:04you just tell her
00:10:05you can't donate anything at present.
00:10:07Yeah.
00:10:08Yeah, I've told all the other fellas.
00:10:11Thanks.
00:10:12Oh, by the way, Joe,
00:10:14I've got to show my gratitude.
00:10:17Ever hear of Las Lomas Quicksilver?
00:10:21Hello?
00:10:22Joe?
00:10:23Joe?
00:10:25Bad connection.
00:10:26I don't think I'll wait any longer, Hilda.
00:10:29Well, maybe you'd like to see the new partner.
00:10:32Oh, uh, Mr. Bennett, is he here already?
00:10:35Yes, he's in his office.
00:10:37What's he like?
00:10:38Well, he's, uh, kind of hard to describe.
00:10:41I know the type.
00:10:43Yes, Mr. Hendricks.
00:10:45Yes, Mr. Hendricks.
00:10:47No, no regrets about my own business.
00:10:49Those nerve-racking days are over.
00:10:51Yes, sir, I'll call you
00:10:53the minute I get something good.
00:10:58Hello?
00:11:01I've got something.
00:11:02Goodbye.
00:11:04I'm Gwen Saunders.
00:11:05Well, how do you do?
00:11:06I'm Beef Stenner.
00:11:07I mean, I'm Sten Bieber.
00:11:08I mean, uh...
00:11:09Bennett.
00:11:10Bennett, yeah, that's him.
00:11:11No, that's me.
00:11:12Why don't you sit down?
00:11:13Could I talk to you alone for a minute?
00:11:14Alone?
00:11:15Alone, Sam.
00:11:16You don't have to hit me with no turn of cool.
00:11:18No, I guess it's too late for that.
00:11:19You'll just fade.
00:11:20Yes, ma'am.
00:11:21I'll put the pictures up.
00:11:22He painted the boat, Sam.
00:11:28I hope you don't mind.
00:11:30Huh?
00:11:31Shh, we better not talk too loud.
00:11:32No, we better not.
00:11:35Mr. Bennett, I'm in trouble.
00:11:37Trouble?
00:11:38I only know you by reputation.
00:11:40My uncles talked about you so much,
00:11:41but I want you to know that I trust you implicitly.
00:11:43Well, that's very nice.
00:11:44I'm sorry to be so abrupt.
00:11:46After all, we're strangers,
00:11:47but you're the only one in the world that can help me.
00:11:50Well, I'm entirely at your service.
00:11:52Well, it's terribly, terribly important,
00:11:55but you must promise me
00:11:56that you won't say a word about it to anyone.
00:11:58Oh, I won't tell a...
00:11:59Say, you're not in a play called The Green Swan, are you?
00:12:02Shh.
00:12:03Huh?
00:12:04Pudgy and Dick mustn't know that I've talked to you.
00:12:06Huh?
00:12:07Pudgy's my nickname for Uncle.
00:12:08There isn't anyone in the world I can ask except Ben,
00:12:10and he wouldn't do it.
00:12:11Oh, he wouldn't, eh?
00:12:12No, he wouldn't, eh?
00:12:13That's just like him.
00:12:14Who is he?
00:12:15Never mind.
00:12:16They mustn't dream we're going to be partners.
00:12:18Oh, we're going to be partners?
00:12:19Yes.
00:12:20Now, do you see these?
00:12:21Is that money?
00:12:22Yes.
00:12:23What did you think it was?
00:12:24Why, that's a $1,000 bill.
00:12:26There's ten of them.
00:12:27One, two, three, four, five...
00:12:28Oh, don't count.
00:12:29We're partners.
00:12:30Yeah, we're just...
00:12:31Oh, oh.
00:12:32Dear me.
00:12:35Oh, I'm sorry.
00:12:37Oh, I'm not.
00:12:38You see, I'm so upset.
00:12:39I don't know what I'm doing.
00:12:40I've had these for four days.
00:12:41Pudgy doesn't know that I've got them.
00:12:43Here, you keep them.
00:12:44I've had them in two banks,
00:12:45in my safe deposit box,
00:12:46under my pillow,
00:12:47and in my stocking.
00:12:48Oh, aren't you afraid of prowlers?
00:12:50What?
00:12:51I mean, it's dangerous.
00:12:52So naturally, I'm terribly, terribly worried.
00:12:55Well, how can you worry when you have $10,000?
00:12:58Oh, but that's the whole thing.
00:13:00I want you to invest it for me.
00:13:02Oh, I see.
00:13:03You want the firm to invest it.
00:13:04No, no.
00:13:05I told you the others mustn't know anything about it.
00:13:07Oh, no.
00:13:08You see, I have to make a lot of money
00:13:09quickly, and I think speculation's
00:13:11the best way, don't you?
00:13:12Oh, I want a quick turnover,
00:13:13the kind that Pudgy always gets.
00:13:14Pudgy's my nickname for Uncle.
00:13:15I told you that, didn't I?
00:13:16Pudgy always doubles everybody's money.
00:13:18He says I talk too quickly.
00:13:20Oh, it's not noticeable.
00:13:21Isn't that nice?
00:13:22Where's the money?
00:13:23Oh, here, here.
00:13:24Don't get nervous.
00:13:25You keep it.
00:13:26I'm always losing it.
00:13:28Well, that's an awful lot of money
00:13:29to carry around.
00:13:30I seldom do it.
00:13:31I don't like to muss it or bend it.
00:13:33Well, which pocket are you going to keep it in?
00:13:35Well, I think it would look
00:13:36well right in there.
00:13:37Don't you?
00:13:38You're a scream.
00:13:40Uh, but you mustn't mix it with your money.
00:13:42No, I won't.
00:13:43If it gets mixed with my money,
00:13:44I'll recognize it.
00:13:45Oh, that's it.
00:13:47Oh, it's the buzzer.
00:13:48Oh, that's that.
00:13:49Oh, Steve, can you come in now?
00:13:52That's Pudgy.
00:13:53Can I come in?
00:13:54Mm-hmm.
00:13:55Well, I'll be right there, Pudgy.
00:13:56Uh, T.T.
00:13:57Say, you better go.
00:13:58I better go.
00:13:59Pudgy mustn't see us together.
00:14:00Oh, you've been terribly sweet,
00:14:01and I'm terribly, terribly grateful to you.
00:14:03Yes, well, well, that'd be...
00:14:05Oh, wait, Miss Saunders.
00:14:07What sort of a turnover do you expect?
00:14:09Well, you must double it.
00:14:10Oh, I told you that, didn't I?
00:14:12Well, that's terribly important.
00:14:13That's the whole idea.
00:14:14It's such a good cause.
00:14:16Yes, it is.
00:14:17Double it?
00:14:18Yes, like Pudgy always does.
00:14:19Oh, yes, but I mean, how much?
00:14:21How soon?
00:14:22Oh, well, you mustn't waste time.
00:14:23Well, right away.
00:14:24We've only got three days.
00:14:26I'll keep in touch with you.
00:14:27Goodbye.
00:14:28Miss Saunders.
00:14:29Shh.
00:14:30Goodbye.
00:14:31Shh.
00:14:35Hi.
00:14:37Dream girl!
00:14:38Dan!
00:14:39Where have you been?
00:14:41Miss Saunders.
00:14:42I've been phoning you all day.
00:14:44Well, that trip certainly did you good.
00:14:46You look wonderful yourself.
00:14:48Do I?
00:14:50Oh, Steve, come into my office, will you?
00:14:53We can talk in there.
00:14:54Oh, yes.
00:14:55Oh, Mr. Bennett.
00:14:56Mr. Bennett?
00:14:58I need $2.
00:14:59I got to go get some things.
00:15:01Well, I don't have any money right now.
00:15:03You know how things are.
00:15:04Well, I...
00:15:07I just got it.
00:15:08It's not mine.
00:15:09I was sitting...
00:15:12I don't have to explain things to you.
00:15:18And don't stare.
00:15:21Oh, come in.
00:15:23Steve, I want you to meet Dick Dudley.
00:15:25Well, I...
00:15:26Oh, haven't we...
00:15:27Glad to have you with us, Bennett.
00:15:29Yeah, but...
00:15:30Oh, yes, yes, thanks.
00:15:32Thanks, pal, you're okay.
00:15:33Drink?
00:15:34I think I will.
00:15:35T.T.
00:15:36Thank you.
00:15:37Well, here's to the three musketeers.
00:15:39Yes, sir.
00:15:41I'm sure we'll be together for a long time.
00:15:43Steve, you're going to be here until you're old and gray.
00:15:46Which may be tomorrow.
00:15:50Steve, we're having a few friends on the flamingo for the weekend.
00:15:53That's my houseboat, you know.
00:15:55Mrs. Ralston and I would be delighted to have you.
00:15:57Oh, thanks.
00:15:58Thanks a lot, T.T.
00:15:59Oh, not at all, not at all.
00:16:01You're one of the family now, you know.
00:16:02Come here.
00:16:04When you hear what I've got set up for you,
00:16:06you'll jump for joy.
00:16:08There's a little mine in New Mexico.
00:16:10You see, I was the only one to hear about it.
00:16:12So when I went down there to...
00:16:14Say, are you listening to me?
00:16:16Oh, yes, Pudgy.
00:16:17I mean, Mr. Ralston.
00:16:18I'm all ears.
00:16:20Well, I'm putting it out in 70,000 shares.
00:16:22Preferred stock.
00:16:23It's a shame to let the public have it.
00:16:25Well, it certainly is.
00:16:27But we need working capital.
00:16:29Yes?
00:16:30Well, what kind of a mine is it, T.T.?
00:16:31Well, it's Las Lomas Quicksilver Preferred.
00:16:34Las Lomas Quicksilver?
00:16:36Uh-huh.
00:16:37That was the quietest jumping for joy I ever saw.
00:16:40Oh, well, Mr. Ralston,
00:16:41maybe I ought to handle something I'm more familiar with
00:16:43like American Can or something.
00:16:45Why, Steve.
00:16:46Hello.
00:16:47Hello, Bart.
00:16:48Come in, come in.
00:16:49You know Mr. Bennett.
00:16:50Oh, very well.
00:16:51Congratulations, Mr. Bennett.
00:16:52Oh, thanks, Mr. Pritchard.
00:16:53You've got a good man, T.T.
00:16:54Oh, I know it.
00:16:56Mr. Pritchard took 5,000 of that Quicksilver.
00:16:58Uh, that's what I came to see you about, T.T.
00:17:01Uh, pardon me.
00:17:03I, uh...
00:17:05I think I was a little hasty.
00:17:07I'd like to...
00:17:08Oh, nonsense.
00:17:09You'll double your money.
00:17:10Well, I've been talking to some of the boys
00:17:12and I'm a little jittery.
00:17:14Just come with me.
00:17:16I'll tell you what we'll do.
00:17:19Here's your check, Bart.
00:17:21If it'll make you feel any better.
00:17:22Well, T.T., I didn't mean to...
00:17:24Oh, forget it, forget it.
00:17:25How's Ruthie and the kids?
00:17:26Well...
00:17:27We must have dinner together some night soon, eh?
00:17:31Well, so long, Bart.
00:17:33But, T.T., I don't get it.
00:17:34That was awful fast.
00:17:36Oh, I know human nature, boys.
00:17:38Pritchard'll phone right back
00:17:40and instead of 5,000 shares,
00:17:42he'll want to buy 20,000.
00:17:44He'll figure if I was that anxious
00:17:46to give him back his money
00:17:48and hold on to the stock,
00:17:49it must be terrific.
00:17:50Oh, yes, boys.
00:17:52I'm a great student of human nature.
00:17:54Well, I wish I were.
00:17:55I'm still in the chasing and proposing stage.
00:17:58Gwen?
00:17:59Gwen, yes.
00:18:00Oh, Van, you haven't met, uh,
00:18:01Steve Bennett, have you?
00:18:02Tell me Van Dusen.
00:18:03Yes, I saw them.
00:18:04I mean him,
00:18:05outside by the water cooler.
00:18:07I mean, how are you?
00:18:11We'd better get down to business.
00:18:12All right, Steve,
00:18:13let's get back to Quicksilver.
00:18:14I tell you,
00:18:15it'll double anybody's investment.
00:18:16Well, what is the...
00:18:17Double?
00:18:18It'll double?
00:18:19Yeah.
00:18:21Well, I have a little money that...
00:18:23Your own money?
00:18:24No, no, this isn't for you, Steve.
00:18:26Oh, but you just said,
00:18:27you just told Mr. Pritchard...
00:18:28But Mr. Pritchard is a customer.
00:18:30Yeah, but if it's not good for me,
00:18:31it's not good for him.
00:18:32Now, look,
00:18:33we're wasting a lot of time here.
00:18:34Do you or don't you want to sell this stock?
00:18:36Well, the customers I have believe in me.
00:18:37I'm not kidding, they do.
00:18:38I...
00:18:39I can't sell them anything I don't believe in.
00:18:41Has Ripley heard about him?
00:18:42All right.
00:18:43Maybe Las Lomas is no good at all.
00:18:46But there's Quicksilver somewhere in New Mexico
00:18:48and somebody is liable to find it.
00:18:50I've told many a lie
00:18:51that I've had come true.
00:18:52A lie is the same as the truth
00:18:54if the result is all right.
00:18:56I'm afraid I disagree with you.
00:18:57Take a page from the old master.
00:18:58Profit's the only thing in business.
00:19:00And in our business, profit is imagination.
00:19:02And imagination is seldom the truth.
00:19:04It's what you hope for.
00:19:06The world doesn't believe in the truth.
00:19:08It didn't believe that there was an America
00:19:09for Columbus to discover.
00:19:11It didn't believe that Bell had a telephone
00:19:13or that man could fly.
00:19:15Those fellows were all telling the truth
00:19:17and yet everybody considered them crazy.
00:19:19I tell you,
00:19:20there are certain necessary lies.
00:19:24A man can get along just as well
00:19:25by telling the absolute truth.
00:19:27You mean about everything?
00:19:28Yes.
00:19:29All the time?
00:19:30Sure.
00:19:31What are you playing?
00:19:32Truth and consequences?
00:19:34Just teaching our new partner the facts of life.
00:19:36We've been trying to convince Steve
00:19:38that he couldn't tell the truth even for a day
00:19:40and retain any of his friends
00:19:41or do any business.
00:19:43Why, if a man set out to tell the truth
00:19:45for a whole day before nightfall,
00:19:46someone would kill him.
00:19:47Sure.
00:19:48Why, all the diplomats of Europe
00:19:50would have to quit if it weren't the case.
00:19:52Is that bad?
00:19:53Listen, Steve.
00:19:54You meet Smith on the street in the morning
00:19:56and you say, I hope you sleep well.
00:19:58That's a lie.
00:19:59You don't give a hang if he never sleeps.
00:20:01Well, I do.
00:20:02Smith's a nice guy.
00:20:04Oh, give in, Bennett.
00:20:06The truth hurts.
00:20:08An attractive lie sounds infinitely better.
00:20:10Well, I'm entitled to my own opinion.
00:20:12I still think he can tell the truth.
00:20:13Who, me?
00:20:14No, I didn't say you could tell the truth.
00:20:16I said I can tell the truth.
00:20:17Ah, but for how long?
00:20:19Well, if I can tell the truth for an hour,
00:20:21I don't see any reason why I couldn't tell it
00:20:22for one day or a year.
00:20:24Yeah, you don't really believe that, do you?
00:20:26Well, I certainly do.
00:20:27It's just a simple matter of principle.
00:20:29Hey, do I sound stuffy?
00:20:31You wouldn't like to back those principles
00:20:32with a little money, would you?
00:20:34Well, yes, I would.
00:20:35Well, I would, but...
00:20:37Yeah, look at him.
00:20:38Look at him, Wells.
00:20:39Look at him, Wells.
00:20:40I'll bet you any amount
00:20:41that you couldn't even tell the truth
00:20:42for 24 hours, let alone a whole year.
00:20:44Count me in.
00:20:45That's a sure thing.
00:20:47Well, that sounds like a quick turnover.
00:20:52Well, I don't know.
00:20:54You better think fast, buddy.
00:20:55Be a plunge.
00:20:56You bet the whole 50 cents.
00:20:57Don't heckle him.
00:20:58He's nervous.
00:21:00You'll bet me money, real money,
00:21:02that I can't tell the truth for 24 hours?
00:21:04That's what I said.
00:21:05Any amount.
00:21:09Hey, if he did it, I can.
00:21:11It's a bet.
00:21:12Call all the Americans around here.
00:21:14Well, I'll bet you...
00:21:15How much?
00:21:17$10,000.
00:21:19How much?
00:21:20You're bluffing.
00:21:21Where's the money?
00:21:22Bluffing.
00:21:23There.
00:21:25Hey, it's real.
00:21:29$10,000.
00:21:30Easy, fellas.
00:21:31Hey.
00:21:32That's tender stuff.
00:21:34Where did you ever get such an amount
00:21:35to throw away like this?
00:21:36Well, it's there, isn't it?
00:21:37And I'm not throwing it away.
00:21:38I'm gonna win.
00:21:39You'll tell the truth to everybody
00:21:40no matter what they ask you?
00:21:41Yes.
00:21:42I'll bet you $10,000 on those terms.
00:21:43I'll bet you five grand.
00:21:44I only want to bet $10,000.
00:21:46Today.
00:21:47Now, wait.
00:21:48I've got to have some of this.
00:21:49Hey, he's not your partner.
00:21:50He's ours.
00:21:51Oh.
00:21:52Wait a minute, boys.
00:21:53I hired him.
00:21:54He's all mine.
00:21:55Why should I give up a sure thing?
00:21:56Do you blame me?
00:21:57No.
00:21:58Yes.
00:21:59I'm a client.
00:22:00You've got to let me in
00:22:01on all sound investments.
00:22:02Me too.
00:22:03All right.
00:22:04I'll tell you what we'll do.
00:22:05We'll split it three ways.
00:22:06If you win, if you tell a lie
00:22:07while you're away from us,
00:22:08you must confess.
00:22:09What do you mean, away from us?
00:22:10I'm gonna sleep with him.
00:22:11That's not part of the agreement.
00:22:12Man, I'll take your share
00:22:13out of our cash
00:22:14and charge it to your account.
00:22:15Right.
00:22:16Well, what's holding us up, fellas?
00:22:17The sooner we get started,
00:22:18the sooner I get the money.
00:22:19And we'd better put this in writing.
00:22:21I am.
00:22:23You agree to tell
00:22:24the unadulterated truth
00:22:25for 24 hours.
00:22:26To all comers,
00:22:27animal, vegetable, or mineral.
00:22:28You'll answer all questions.
00:22:30If you refuse,
00:22:31you lose the bet.
00:22:32That's it, brother.
00:22:33You can't run away and hide
00:22:34or shut yourself up
00:22:35where you won't see anyone.
00:22:36Oh, we'll be with him
00:22:37till he loses.
00:22:38And you mustn't change
00:22:39your routine.
00:22:40You must go on
00:22:41in the even tenor of your way.
00:22:42Yeah.
00:22:43Yes.
00:22:44And spell tenor
00:22:45with a capital T.
00:22:46And if anyone tells of the bet
00:22:47or even hints of it,
00:22:48that side loses the bet.
00:22:49One lose, all lose
00:22:50on your side.
00:22:51What's the idea of that?
00:22:52Well, if you told people
00:22:53about it,
00:22:54they'd ask me a lot of questions
00:22:55like, well,
00:22:56which they ordinarily wouldn't.
00:22:57Oh, put it in, put it in.
00:22:58Let him put his picture in
00:22:59if he wants to.
00:23:00And remember,
00:23:01under no circumstances
00:23:02can this bet be called off.
00:23:04No, no, no.
00:23:05Well, let me count it.
00:23:06Wait a minute.
00:23:07There's only 9,000 here.
00:23:089,000?
00:23:09Well, I had...
00:23:10No, no, no.
00:23:11It's all right.
00:23:12There's ten.
00:23:14Can't you count, T.T.?
00:23:17Five, six, seven...
00:23:19Hey, there's 11,000 here.
00:23:22One, two, three, four...
00:23:25Five.
00:23:26Oh, yeah.
00:23:27Five and five are ten.
00:23:28That's that new thing they have.
00:23:30Put it all together.
00:23:31Have you got an envelope?
00:23:32Yes, sir.
00:23:33All right.
00:23:34Put it all together.
00:23:35Have you got an envelope?
00:23:36Miss Turner.
00:23:37Where's Miss Turner?
00:23:38Oh, there must be one here.
00:23:39Wait a minute.
00:23:40Yes, here's one.
00:23:41Fine.
00:23:42Thank you.
00:23:44Will you hold that open, please?
00:23:48Seal it up.
00:23:53Here.
00:23:54No, I'll do it.
00:23:56Wait a minute.
00:23:57Where are you going with that?
00:23:58Back here.
00:23:59Where are you going with that money?
00:24:04Ah!
00:24:06That did it.
00:24:08Here.
00:24:09Thanks.
00:24:10Did you buzz, Mr. Ralston?
00:24:12Yes, Miss Turner.
00:24:13I want you to place this envelope in the safe.
00:24:15You're a witness to this.
00:24:16Yes, Miss Turner.
00:24:17No one's to touch it.
00:24:18Not until all five of us are present.
00:24:20Yes, sir.
00:24:21A fine partnership.
00:24:22How many people know the combination?
00:24:28Now, we all understand the conditions.
00:24:30The absolute truth for 24 hours.
00:24:32Okay.
00:24:34It's just three minutes of four.
00:24:36It's five minutes of four.
00:24:38Well, it's two minutes of four.
00:24:39You're all wrong.
00:24:40It's five after.
00:24:41Well, we'll find out.
00:24:43Three, eight, one.
00:24:47Oh, hello, operator.
00:24:48Are you there?
00:24:49It's automatic.
00:24:52When you hear the tone,
00:24:53the time will be 3.59 and three quarters.
00:24:57Set your watches, boys.
00:24:59It's exactly four o'clock.
00:25:02The bet is on.
00:25:03Go!
00:25:06The bet started at exactly 4 p.m. today
00:25:09and ends at 4 p.m. tomorrow.
00:25:11Right?
00:25:12Right.
00:25:17Oh, now, let's not gang up, fellas.
00:25:20When you tell your lie, pal,
00:25:21make it a good one.
00:25:22Because it's going to cost you ten grand.
00:25:26Now, what do we ask him?
00:25:30Do you think you're good-looking?
00:25:31Yes.
00:25:32In a manly sort of way.
00:25:33You lose.
00:25:34Yeah.
00:25:35In ten seconds.
00:25:36No, I don't lose.
00:25:37That's not a lie.
00:25:38That's an opinion.
00:25:39Now, if I said you were good-looking,
00:25:40that'd be a lie.
00:25:42Well, he has a right to an opinion.
00:25:45Now it's my turn.
00:25:46When we talked of the partnership,
00:25:48you told me that last year you made $40,000.
00:25:51Is that the truth?
00:25:53No.
00:25:54Uh-huh.
00:25:55Well, how much did you make?
00:25:56Well, I think that's more of a personal question,
00:25:58don't you?
00:25:59Yeah.
00:26:00How much did you make?
00:26:04$1,100.
00:26:07Gross.
00:26:08Uh-huh.
00:26:11All right.
00:26:12Now I got a but.
00:26:13Where did you get that $10,000?
00:26:14Yeah.
00:26:15I asked you where you got it.
00:26:17Well, I don't think I have to answer that.
00:26:19I think we should change the agreement slightly.
00:26:21If you refuse to answer, you lose the bet.
00:26:23Yeah.
00:26:27Well, I...
00:26:28Well, I...
00:26:30Hello.
00:26:33Who, Mr. Pritchard?
00:26:34No, this is Steve Bennett.
00:26:36Quicksilver.
00:26:37I'll take it.
00:26:38He wants to buy 20,000 shares.
00:26:4020,000?
00:26:41What did I tell you boys?
00:26:42Do I know human nature?
00:26:44Well, what do I think of it?
00:26:47Why, it's no good. It stinks.
00:26:50Are you crazy?
00:26:52Why, you...
00:26:53You...
00:26:54If I lay my hands on you...
00:26:55Hey!
00:26:57Hello.
00:26:58McCready.
00:26:59Quicksilver.
00:27:00Stinks.
00:27:02I'll play this one thing.
00:27:04But I'll get even with you for this, Bennett.
00:27:06I give you the news.
00:27:07Uh, Bennett, your name.
00:27:08You go across again.
00:27:09Why did you say that?
00:27:10I swore to tell the truth, the whole truth,
00:27:12and nothing but the truth.
00:27:13So help me!
00:27:16Stinks!
00:27:25But, Hilda, are you sure?
00:27:29Well...
00:27:30Then give Mr. Bennett this message.
00:27:32It's terribly, terribly important.
00:27:35Tell him that something's come up
00:27:36and that the...
00:27:37The things that I gave him to do something with,
00:27:41he's not to do that with them at all.
00:27:43And, uh, that he's to hold the things
00:27:47as I have to have them back right away.
00:27:49Now, that's clear, isn't it?
00:27:50But I don't think he's coming back today.
00:27:52They've all left for the weekend.
00:27:54Well, it's terribly important.
00:27:56I heard them say something
00:27:58about stopping off at Mr. Bennett's hotel first,
00:28:00the Miami Palms.
00:28:01Miami Palms?
00:28:02Oh, wait till I get a pencil and paper.
00:28:04Oh, what do I need a pencil and paper for?
00:28:06I can remember that.
00:28:07Miami Palms Hotel.
00:28:08Thank you, Hilda.
00:28:10Oh, dear.
00:28:12Oh, dear.
00:28:14Miami Palms Hotel.
00:28:15Miami Palms, Miami Palms, Miami...
00:28:18But, fellas, I'll see you some other weekend.
00:28:20I get seasick on a boat.
00:28:21But you accepted my invitation
00:28:23before the bet was made.
00:28:24Yeah, and remember the even-tenner clause.
00:28:28Did you ever steal anything?
00:28:30Yes.
00:28:31What did you steal?
00:28:32I stole some money.
00:28:33Where did you steal it?
00:28:35From a bank.
00:28:38How much money was it?
00:28:40A half a dollar.
00:28:41You stole a half a dollar from a bank?
00:28:44Yes.
00:28:45What bank was it?
00:28:47My little brother's piggy bank.
00:28:48So you stole half a dollar
00:28:50from your little brother's piggy bank.
00:28:52Is that all?
00:28:53That's all there was in it.
00:28:56Good afternoon, Mr. Bennett.
00:28:57How are you?
00:28:59Hey, you live here?
00:29:01Yes.
00:29:02What's the matter?
00:29:03Oh, nothing.
00:29:04I just thought that Steve lived in another hotel.
00:29:12Well, what's the matter with this hotel?
00:29:14Hey.
00:29:15Huh?
00:29:16That green swan dame lives here.
00:29:18I'd hate to run into her now
00:29:19with the old man along.
00:29:20Well, I may be crazy,
00:29:21but in a hotel this size,
00:29:22you'll never know.
00:29:23I beg your pardon.
00:29:25I'm crazy.
00:29:28Well, hello.
00:29:29This is a pleasant surprise.
00:29:30How do you do?
00:29:31And Mr. Bennett,
00:29:32were you coming to see me?
00:29:34Oh, I live here.
00:29:35You do?
00:29:36Well, isn't that convenient?
00:29:37Yes, I was just going up.
00:29:38We were...
00:29:39Oh, well, come on, Bruce.
00:29:40Come on.
00:29:41Come on.
00:29:42Come on.
00:29:43Come on.
00:29:44Bruno and I were going for a walk,
00:29:45but we'll ride up with you.
00:29:46Oh, well, won't Bruno be disappointed?
00:29:48Nonsense.
00:29:49Bruno's always having his own way.
00:29:51Yeah, who's going to stop him?
00:29:53Oh, uh, Miss, uh...
00:29:54I'm very bad at names.
00:29:56Miss, uh...
00:29:57Miss, uh...
00:29:58Graham.
00:29:59Oh, yes, Graham.
00:30:00My father-in-law, Mr. Alston.
00:30:03Oh, how do you do?
00:30:04How do you do?
00:30:05Mr. Van Duzer.
00:30:06How do you do?
00:30:07How do you do?
00:30:08Miss Graham is a friend of Steve's.
00:30:09We met in the office.
00:30:10Oh.
00:30:11Oh, yes, yes.
00:30:12Yes, yes, we met in the office, yes.
00:30:16Oh, why don't we have a quiet little dinner this evening
00:30:18and let me read you the play?
00:30:20Play?
00:30:21Putting money in a show, Steve?
00:30:23Uh...
00:30:24Are you putting money in a show, Steve?
00:30:27Oh, I expect to come into a lot of money tomorrow.
00:30:30Oh, you do, eh?
00:30:31Uh, yeah, around 4 o'clock, to be exact.
00:30:33Oh, that's fine.
00:30:34That'll be plenty of time.
00:30:36Then I'll tell Charlie everything's all set, shall I?
00:30:39Charlie?
00:30:40Yes, Charlie Pendergast.
00:30:41He's the author.
00:30:42I mean, it is all set, isn't it?
00:30:44Charlie Pendergast?
00:30:46Oh, well, good old Charlie.
00:30:48Oh, you know him?
00:30:49No.
00:30:51Oh, you droll man.
00:30:54Ninth floor.
00:30:55That's me.
00:30:57Oh, Mr. Bennett.
00:30:59I'm in 512.
00:31:01Then you'll phone me?
00:31:02512.
00:31:03That's an easy number to remember.
00:31:05Goodbye, Mr. Ralston.
00:31:06Goodbye, Dickie.
00:31:07Um, Mr. Donnelly.
00:31:09These, uh, theatrical people.
00:31:11They certainly get familiar.
00:31:14I might as well get packed, fellas.
00:31:16Come on in.
00:31:20Hello.
00:31:21I'm just finishing.
00:31:22Say, how much do you pay for this apartment?
00:31:24$125 a month.
00:31:26Are you behind on your rent?
00:31:29Yes, three months.
00:31:31Uh, do you mind if I, uh...
00:31:33I'm sorry, Mr. Bennett.
00:31:34I'll get right out.
00:31:35No, no.
00:31:36Go right ahead with your work.
00:31:37Steve, did you ever tip this young lady?
00:31:40Did you ever try to get cute with her?
00:31:42Oh.
00:31:43Oh, now, fellas.
00:31:45Fellas, let's be gentlemen.
00:31:47Did you?
00:31:49Well, if you want to count that once.
00:31:51Well, of all things.
00:31:53Oh, now, listen.
00:31:54Fellas, you can't do a...
00:31:55Hello, Sam.
00:31:56You know, a bet's a bet,
00:31:57but you can't go around embarrassing me like this.
00:31:59We can't for the next 22 hours.
00:32:01This is only the beginning.
00:32:02Look.
00:32:04Excuse me.
00:32:08Oh, Mr. Bennett, I'll have to see you right away.
00:32:10Oh, come right in.
00:32:11Oh, no, I'll come right out.
00:32:15Hey, fellas.
00:32:16There's a girl, a young lady.
00:32:18It'll only be a minute.
00:32:19Something personal.
00:32:20You'll have to excuse me.
00:32:23Oh, dear.
00:32:25Oh, Mr. Bennett.
00:32:26Shh.
00:32:27I'm sorry about before.
00:32:28Oh, Mr. Bennett.
00:32:29The most awful thing.
00:32:30You know I'm not good at dates.
00:32:31And here I thought it was the 28th,
00:32:32and it really is the 28th,
00:32:33only there isn't any more.
00:32:34It's February.
00:32:35So you'll have to give me back the money.
00:32:38You want me to give you back the money?
00:32:41Yes.
00:32:42That's what I thought you said.
00:32:45Have you invested it already?
00:32:47Yes.
00:32:48What did you invest it in?
00:32:50Well, look, if you'll just wait till tomorrow,
00:32:52if you'll just trust me...
00:32:53Oh, I trust you all right.
00:32:54It's the $10,000 I'm worried about.
00:32:56It's the $10,000 I'm worried about.
00:32:58Yeah, me too.
00:32:59Because there's one terrible part about it.
00:33:02It isn't my money.
00:33:03Yeah, well, I knew it was something like that.
00:33:05Not your money.
00:33:06Well, whose is it?
00:33:08Everybody's.
00:33:09Everybody's?
00:33:10Well, maybe they're worried.
00:33:11He is.
00:33:14Oh, it's Mr. Bishop.
00:33:15Huh?
00:33:16Oh!
00:33:17Let me just...
00:33:18Where?
00:33:19Where can I hide?
00:33:20What's the matter?
00:33:21Oh, that man.
00:33:22I've never played this before.
00:33:24Say, tell him I'm not here.
00:33:26All right.
00:33:27Tell him I'm not here.
00:33:28All right, I will.
00:33:33Sorry, no magazines.
00:33:34Is there a Miss Saunders here?
00:33:36Saunders?
00:33:37Yes, I must speak to her, please.
00:33:38Saunders?
00:33:39Is that Saunders with an A-U or just a plain A?
00:33:41With an A-U.
00:33:42Oh, well, I...
00:33:43She's most anxious to see me.
00:33:45Well, why would she...
00:33:46Where is she?
00:33:47Where is she?
00:33:48Yes, where is she?
00:33:49Well, I think she...
00:33:50She's right there behind the screen.
00:33:57He asked me where you were, and I...
00:33:59Oh, I was just back there, my stocking.
00:34:01You know, those runs you get and the thing there.
00:34:03Oh, I'd like to talk to you, Mr. Bishop,
00:34:05but we're on our way out.
00:34:06We're in a hurry.
00:34:07On your way out?
00:34:08I'd better slip into a necktie or something.
00:34:10I'm...
00:34:11That was Mr. Bennett, my uncle's new partner.
00:34:13Your maid told me I might find you here.
00:34:15Oh, I'm sorry.
00:34:16Oh, it's all right.
00:34:17It's all right.
00:34:18Your maid told me I might find you here.
00:34:20Oh, she did?
00:34:23What is he worried about?
00:34:24I signed the note, didn't I?
00:34:26And on the strength of it, we broke ground for the home.
00:34:28Now even the steam shovels have stopped.
00:34:30Well, they can't blame that on me.
00:34:32I merely guaranteed the $40,000.
00:34:34Miss Saunders, you've collected $10,000.
00:34:38But to date, we haven't seen a penny of it.
00:34:40And I must remind you, this is charity money.
00:34:44Charity money.
00:34:45Charity money.
00:34:47Who's he got in there?
00:34:48I don't know.
00:34:49I couldn't see her.
00:34:50Oh, but it's all so silly, Mr. Bishop.
00:34:52I have it.
00:34:53Or rather, I will have it.
00:34:54Well, yes, I'll have it tomorrow.
00:34:56For your own sake, Miss Saunders, as well as for ours,
00:34:59I can only hope you're right.
00:35:01The chairman is sick.
00:35:02They're all going to be running for it immediately.
00:35:04Oh, you're not glorious.
00:35:06Oh, it's the kisses of tomorrow.
00:35:10Dick, come on.
00:35:11Hey, I'm looking for skeletons.
00:35:12We'll give him two more minutes.
00:35:13Nothing doing.
00:35:14He can't have a romance on my time.
00:35:16Why are you going to dress there?
00:35:17Every room's full of somebody.
00:35:18Oh, make a lot of noise.
00:35:20Mr. Rawson mustn't know his niece is in there.
00:35:22He'd ask a lot of questions.
00:35:23So come on, help me.
00:35:24Make noise.
00:35:25Oh, I love the kisses of tomorrow.
00:35:27Oh, I like tomorrow.
00:35:30Oh, I love the kisses of tomorrow.
00:35:32Put those on.
00:35:33Oh, my tomorrow.
00:35:36Oh.
00:35:39What's that?
00:35:41Oh, I like tomorrow.
00:35:43Hmm.
00:35:45What's going on, Bennett?
00:35:48Yes, yes, tomorrow.
00:35:49You know me, Mr. Bishop.
00:35:50Very good, Miss Saunders.
00:35:51I'll see you tomorrow.
00:35:53Yes.
00:35:55We've been waiting in that bedroom for days.
00:35:57Oh, come on.
00:35:58You can gargle on the boat.
00:36:04Let's get going, Steve.
00:36:05We don't want to spend the weekend here.
00:36:07Oh, wait a minute.
00:36:08You'll have to go back.
00:36:09Don't go in.
00:36:10Don't.
00:36:13Oh, come in.
00:36:15Have a drink?
00:36:17Have a cigar.
00:36:20I know it looks funny, fellas,
00:36:22but there was a girl here
00:36:23that might have been embarrassing to her, you know.
00:36:30Well, I...
00:36:32I didn't...
00:36:36Oh, Sam, Sam.
00:36:38What's the matter with him?
00:36:39You hired him.
00:36:41Thanks, Sam.
00:36:43Well, I'm all set.
00:36:44Get my bag, Sam.
00:36:45Why don't we get going?
00:36:46Let's get out of here.
00:36:47We'll be out of here in a few minutes.
00:36:49What are you shouting for?
00:36:51Well, I want everybody to hear me.
00:36:53Look what I found.
00:36:55Hey!
00:36:56Have you ever seen this before?
00:37:02Yes.
00:37:03Who does it belong to?
00:37:05Oh, now, fellas, there are some things...
00:37:06There are no things.
00:37:07Whose is it?
00:37:09It's mine.
00:37:10Yours?
00:37:11Yours.
00:37:13Well!
00:37:16And no woo-woos!
00:37:17When do you wear it?
00:37:18Saturday night?
00:37:19I haven't worn it for years.
00:37:20Quit kidding.
00:37:21Whose is it?
00:37:22Why, you're so smart, it is mine.
00:37:23I wore it in the varsity show.
00:37:25Here.
00:37:27It was up in Mabel's room.
00:37:29I was Mabel.
00:37:31And no cracks.
00:37:32Where are you?
00:37:34There.
00:37:35Who's that next to you?
00:37:36That's the villain.
00:37:37Did the villain catch you, Mabel?
00:37:39Yes, unfortunately.
00:37:41What happened then?
00:37:42He kissed me.
00:37:45Anyone else in the show kiss you?
00:37:47Oh, do I?
00:37:48Yeah.
00:37:49Just the dramatic coach.
00:37:51At rehearsal?
00:37:52When did you start going with girls?
00:37:54Well, I...
00:37:55Now, go ahead, have your fun, fellas.
00:37:57You're paying for it.
00:38:04Gwen!
00:38:08Hello.
00:38:09Oh, here.
00:38:10Let me help you up.
00:38:11Hello, Uncle Pudgy.
00:38:12I, uh...
00:38:13You see, I...
00:38:15Oh, yeah, yeah, we were talking...
00:38:17You know I...
00:38:18Yes, yes.
00:38:19Say, what is this anyway?
00:38:21What is she doing here?
00:38:22Well, it was charity.
00:38:23No, it wasn't that.
00:38:24No, it was charity.
00:38:25I mean, she came up and we had a little talk
00:38:27about some charity money.
00:38:28No...
00:38:29Uh-oh.
00:38:31Charity money?
00:38:33Oh, so that's it.
00:38:34She was trying to get some money out of you, eh?
00:38:37Well, I...
00:38:38Is that true?
00:38:39Yes, that's exactly why she came up.
00:38:41Yes.
00:38:42Then why were you hiding?
00:38:43Oh, uh...
00:38:44Well, I, uh...
00:38:45I didn't think you'd like my asking Mr. Bennett for money.
00:38:49I don't think you could get ten cents out of Steve.
00:38:52He's not likely to be in a generous mood.
00:38:54You see, Gwen, a couple of hours ago,
00:38:56he made a very bad investment.
00:38:59He certainly did.
00:39:01Come on, let's get started on our profitable little weekend.
00:39:04Yes.
00:39:09Oh!
00:39:29Mrs. Ross, this is a wonderful idea.
00:39:33A splendid boat like this, very relaxing.
00:39:36I think we've been asking young Ben
00:39:38to bring you two over for months now.
00:39:40Yes, that's right, Mother.
00:39:41Mr. Van Dusen's always so busy.
00:39:44We're a regular stay at home.
00:39:46You know, my rumba's just falling apart.
00:39:50Have a good day today, T.T.?
00:39:52Exceptionally good.
00:39:53We got hold of something very easy.
00:39:55We stand to make a neat little profit, Dad,
00:39:57and I've got a third of it.
00:39:59Oh, uh, was Mr. Bennett in on it too?
00:40:01Well, not on the profit side.
00:40:03And will you establish your office here permanently, Doctor?
00:40:06Dear lady, there are as many diseased minds here
00:40:09as in Bucharest.
00:40:11And much more money.
00:40:13Oh, Mrs. Van Dusen, what a perfectly sweet gown.
00:40:16Oh, thank you, dear.
00:40:19Mr. Van Dusen thinks it's a little too young for me,
00:40:22but I always say,
00:40:24he can grow old, I'm not going to.
00:40:28Mr. Bennett, the cat got your tongue?
00:40:30You haven't said very much.
00:40:32And I've put you between two of Miami's
00:40:34most attractive women.
00:40:36Don't you agree?
00:40:38Yes, you're right.
00:40:40I haven't said very much.
00:40:42Oh, come, my boy.
00:40:43This strange reticence is hardly
00:40:45the even tenor of your ways.
00:40:47Oh, I'm afraid you embarrass Mr. Bennett.
00:40:50And Mrs. Raulston's compliment
00:40:52certainly applies to Harriet, but, um...
00:40:55Oh, nonsense, Mrs. Van Dusen.
00:40:57You'd never think she was Van's mother, would you?
00:40:59Yes, their eyes are very much the same.
00:41:01Both of them.
00:41:03No, no, I mean,
00:41:05she doesn't look a day over her 30, does she?
00:41:07Oh, no.
00:41:10Well, you know what they say in Spanish.
00:41:13No, what do they say?
00:41:22Flatterer.
00:41:26Your work must be very interesting, Dr. Zarek.
00:41:28I mean, you must run across some strange cases.
00:41:30I heard of a sad case recently
00:41:32where a man wore a woman's nightgown.
00:41:34Oh, yes, that was very sad.
00:41:36I heard about him.
00:41:38It was a black, lacy, flimsy sort of thing, wasn't it?
00:41:40Oh, poor fellow.
00:41:42He's probably a Rumpelmeyer.
00:41:45Rumpelmeyer?
00:41:47Oh, pardon me.
00:41:49This is our term of classification.
00:41:51You see, Rumpelmeyer was a famous case in Prague.
00:41:54Unusual fixation.
00:41:56He imagined he was his own grandmother.
00:41:58That must have been rather confusing.
00:42:00Yeah, especially for his grandfather.
00:42:02Well, this fellow called himself Mabel.
00:42:05Oh, yes, ask Mr. Bennett. He knows all about him.
00:42:07How interesting.
00:42:09Who is this Mabel?
00:42:12Well, go ahead, Steve, you know.
00:42:14Tell him who Mabel is.
00:42:16I am.
00:42:18You're Mabel?
00:42:20Oh, Mr. Bennett, I'm so sorry.
00:42:22Oh, there's nothing to be sorry about.
00:42:24It's ridiculous. I don't think I'm my grandmother.
00:42:26Well, whose grandmother do you think you are?
00:42:28Well, that's on my...
00:42:30It's a costume.
00:42:32I wore it in a college show.
00:42:34I'm not Mabel. I only played Mabel.
00:42:36That isn't terribly funny, Pudgey.
00:42:38It's all in fun, Gwen.
00:42:40Yes, isn't it?
00:42:42It's awfully nice when partners can be so congenial.
00:42:44I'm sure Mr. Bennett enjoyed his first day with you and Dick.
00:42:46Didn't you, Mr. Bennett?
00:42:48No.
00:42:50No?
00:42:52Well...
00:42:54T.T., you're lucky.
00:42:56It's rather startling to find a really honest man these days.
00:42:58I have some pet theories on that subject.
00:43:00I had occasion only last week
00:43:02to write an editorial on truth.
00:43:04Vance Faulkner's the publisher of the Miami Journal, you know.
00:43:06Yes.
00:43:08Do you like the journal?
00:43:10Miami Journal?
00:43:12What a newspaper.
00:43:14I thank you very much.
00:43:16Do you happen to read my editorial?
00:43:18Yes. May I have the salt?
00:43:20Oh, I love it. I put salt on almost everything.
00:43:22In fact, I even put...
00:43:24I put salt on salt.
00:43:26I hate pepper.
00:43:28Steve, Mr. Van Dusen was asking
00:43:30if you liked his editorial on truth.
00:43:32Well, I liked the beginning of it.
00:43:34That's pretty.
00:43:36Didn't you like the rest of it?
00:43:38I didn't read the rest of it.
00:43:40You mean you put the paper down without finishing my editorial?
00:43:42No, I didn't say that.
00:43:44Well, why didn't you finish it?
00:43:46I fell asleep.
00:43:56Oh, Steve,
00:43:58what was that charming compliment
00:44:00you paid Mrs. Van Dusen a little while ago?
00:44:04What cake?
00:44:06Is this just made out of eggs and things like that?
00:44:09You know, I had an aunt once
00:44:11who made the most wonderful sponge cake,
00:44:13and I always used to say to her,
00:44:15come on, Steve, what did you say?
00:44:18Oh, I said, Annie,
00:44:20how do you ever get it to puff up so light and fluffy?
00:44:22Not to your aunt.
00:44:24Tell us what you said to my mother.
00:44:30Not in Spanish. In English.
00:44:36Well, I'm afraid I said that
00:44:38she couldn't pass for 30 even with a paper bag over her head.
00:44:40Well.
00:44:42Bennett, I think you're carrying things too far.
00:44:44Mr. Bennett, really,
00:44:46you act like one of the dead end kids.
00:44:48And it's easily seen which end is dead.
00:44:50Mrs. Van Dusen, I'm not myself today.
00:44:52Well, whoever you are, I'm not an old paper bag.
00:44:54Sit down, Van. What's the matter with you, Steve?
00:44:56Oh, Mrs. Van Dusen, I'm saying things today
00:44:58that I ordinarily wouldn't say.
00:45:00We should weigh our words very carefully before we speak.
00:45:02I do.
00:45:04What? Mr. Bennett, I can be frank, too.
00:45:06I'm beginning to regret it.
00:45:08Well, so am I. I didn't want to come.
00:45:10What? Will, why did you?
00:45:12Mrs. Ralston, I think you should ask me to leave.
00:45:14Oh, at once!
00:45:16My conduct has been disgraceful. I'll understand.
00:45:18I'll leave at once.
00:45:20Oh, no, no, you're forgiven.
00:45:22We've already forgotten about it.
00:45:24Well, I haven't.
00:45:26You can all understand.
00:45:28Steve has been under a great strain.
00:45:30His business failing and all the rest.
00:45:32Why, sure, sure, Steve.
00:45:34And what you said to Mother was nothing.
00:45:36Nothing at all. Forget it.
00:45:38But Van, your own mother, an old paper bag.
00:45:40I think it's outrageous.
00:45:42Bennett, I can't find words.
00:45:44That, sir, is the trouble with your editorial.
00:45:46Steve, Steve, you don't have to...
00:45:48Mr. Bennett, you hardly know us,
00:45:50and yet you've taken a great delight
00:45:52in hurting everybody's feelings.
00:45:54Why don't you make a good job of it?
00:45:56Go on, go on. Don't leave me out.
00:45:58I'm here. What would you like to do to me?
00:46:00I'd like to kiss you till your ears fly off.
00:46:02Oh! Easy, pal.
00:46:04Mr. Bennett, he's different.
00:46:06So was Jack the Ripper.
00:46:08No, Van. Van.
00:46:10Excuse me.
00:46:12This young man,
00:46:14he's what we call a dementia cortical
00:46:17with an overactive thalamic predicosis.
00:46:20What is that, Doctor?
00:46:22He's a jerk.
00:46:26Miss Alders.
00:46:34Miss Alders.
00:46:36Go away, please.
00:46:38I'd like to say something.
00:46:40You've said enough.
00:46:42I'm sorry I said all those things upstairs,
00:46:44all except the last.
00:46:46I meant that about you.
00:46:48I mean, you're so pretty.
00:46:50You're prettier than anything I've ever seen.
00:46:52I think...
00:46:56To be continued.
00:47:04Did you really mean that?
00:47:06Oh, I thought it was...
00:47:08Believe me, I'm going to tell him a thing or two.
00:47:11Honey, you leave the telling to me.
00:47:13Oh, Van, you mustn't hit him or anything.
00:47:15You know, I think there's something wrong with him.
00:47:18The way he goes around saying those things
00:47:20that he can't possibly mean.
00:47:22He means them all right.
00:47:24But I'm not interested in him at the moment.
00:47:26Darling,
00:47:28the family is planning a Caribbean cruise,
00:47:30and, well, they thought it would be nice
00:47:32if you and I came with them.
00:47:34Van, you're proposing.
00:47:36Yeah, for the third time.
00:47:38That is, if I can keep track of the times.
00:47:40I'm sorry it isn't more romantic,
00:47:42but, well, I...
00:47:44I guess I've said all these things before.
00:47:46Oh, but down in those islands.
00:47:50Once I get you under that Caribbean moon,
00:47:52I won't need words.
00:47:55You know the kind of a fellow I am.
00:47:59What do you say, darling?
00:48:02Hmm?
00:48:04Darling, what...
00:48:07What was that?
00:48:09Have you seen the lady I was walking with?
00:48:12You were walking alone, Mr. Van Duzer.
00:48:14Oh, no.
00:48:16No, no, she was right here, right by my side.
00:48:26Hello.
00:48:28Hello.
00:48:30I want to talk to you.
00:48:32You're the only one around here who does.
00:48:34I want you to know that I'm terribly upset.
00:48:36I mean, about the way you've been acting.
00:48:38Just give me one reason why you insulted everybody.
00:48:41Well, I had to.
00:48:43If I hadn't made all that trouble,
00:48:45there'd have been a lot more trouble.
00:48:47You mean, if you hadn't insulted everybody,
00:48:49that things would have been worse?
00:48:52Much worse. It'd have been bad.
00:48:54Gwen!
00:48:56Gwen!
00:49:00Where's Gwen? Oh, I don't know.
00:49:02Where's Bennett? Bennett?
00:49:04I'll find him.
00:49:06He'll find him.
00:49:12Isn't it a wonderful, wonderful night, Mr. Bennett?
00:49:17I'm not mad at you anymore, you know.
00:49:22It's a wonderful, wonderful night.
00:49:24If we could only stay like this until 4 o'clock tomorrow.
00:49:27Mr. Bennett,
00:49:29do you mind if I ask you something
00:49:31very, very personal?
00:49:34Would you really like to?
00:49:36Well, it's so difficult.
00:49:39It certainly isn't easy.
00:49:41I mean, to talk about such things
00:49:43as love and emotions
00:49:45to a man you hardly know.
00:49:48Oh, you can tell me.
00:49:50Well, do you think I should marry Tommy Van Dusen?
00:49:54Everybody else thinks I should,
00:49:56but I'm mixed up, and you're so honest.
00:49:58I think it takes a man to know about another man.
00:50:02Well, I don't like to be catty,
00:50:04but you asked me, and
00:50:06I picture somebody entirely different for you.
00:50:08I... I mean, someone more clean-cut.
00:50:12I mean, more dynamic.
00:50:14More of the American boy type.
00:50:17I don't see Van at all.
00:50:19You don't? No.
00:50:21Hey, look.
00:50:23I can see our faces in the water.
00:50:25Oh, it's like those funny mirrors
00:50:27at the amusement parks.
00:50:29It's so distorted, I'm good-looking.
00:50:32Yes.
00:50:34You look as if you have two heads.
00:50:37Well, two heads are better than one.
00:50:39Oh, you have got two heads,
00:50:41but one of them isn't yours.
00:50:51Ha-ha-ha.
00:50:58I don't know whether I'm doing right
00:51:00bringing you out here.
00:51:02Samuel, you'd do lots of things
00:51:05you're not supposed to do for $5, wouldn't you?
00:51:08Yes, anybody would.
00:51:10And you'll find Steve Bennett
00:51:12a much more interesting case than you'll imagine, Doctor.
00:51:15I'd question him at every opportunity.
00:51:17Hmm.
00:51:19Away for they go!
00:51:22It's sometimes the people
00:51:24that look the sanest who really are...
00:51:26Yes, Doctor. I mean, goodbye, Doctor.
00:51:28So long, Doctor.
00:51:32I think I'll do a big business in this place.
00:51:41Oh, the door was stuck.
00:51:43I had to push it like that.
00:51:46Hello.
00:51:48Ah, brandy and candy.
00:51:50Isn't that dandy?
00:51:52Oh, Mr. Donnelly and Mr. Bennett.
00:51:54Yes, ma'am.
00:51:56Oh, it's Bennett!
00:52:02Say, what's going on here?
00:52:04Oh, foul...
00:52:06Are you surprised?
00:52:08I was in a hurry, and the door was...
00:52:10I was coming, and you...
00:52:12That's all right.
00:52:14Dick made the same entrance.
00:52:16You two men act as if you were trying to hide from someone.
00:52:19Hide? You're not allowed to hide.
00:52:21It was clearly understood that...
00:52:23What do you mean, he's not allowed?
00:52:25Thomas, you're all acting very strangely tonight.
00:52:27Strangely? Well, I hadn't noticed it, my dear.
00:52:30Please, there is a Miss Graham to see Mr. Bennett.
00:52:33Oh. Or Mr. Donnelly.
00:52:35Oh.
00:52:37Oh, these people.
00:52:39I hope I'm not intruding.
00:52:41Hello, Mr. Ralston. All right, Frederick.
00:52:43Hello, Mr. Bennett.
00:52:46And how do you do, Mr. Donnelly?
00:52:48How do you do?
00:52:50Miss Graham, this is Mrs. Donnelly, my wife.
00:52:52Oh, how do you do?
00:52:54Dr. Zarek. Charmed.
00:52:56Mr. and Mrs. Van Dusen.
00:52:58How do you do?
00:53:00Mr. Ralston, you know, and Mrs. Ralston.
00:53:02Let me get you a chair, please.
00:53:04Oh, thank you.
00:53:06Really, Mrs. Ralston, I'm not in the habit of barging into people's houseboats.
00:53:08Am I, Mr. Bennett?
00:53:10Oh, it's not habitual, I guess.
00:53:12But after all, if there's someone you have to see...
00:53:14It's on a houseboat.
00:53:16Oh, please do go on with your game.
00:53:18Mr. Bennett?
00:53:20Oh, Mr. Bennett?
00:53:22Yes?
00:53:24Could I see you just a minute alone?
00:53:26I've got to talk to you.
00:53:28Yes, but, well, why don't I phone you tomorrow?
00:53:30Say, a little after 4 o'clock.
00:53:32Oh, but you promised to phone me this evening.
00:53:34I've waited and waited.
00:53:36Charlie's going back to New York tomorrow.
00:53:38Oh, he is? Well, what do you know?
00:53:40And it's really up to you whether I go back with him or not.
00:53:42Oh, well, you've got to go back.
00:53:44I mean, well, he'll be lonesome
00:53:46in a big city like New York and everything.
00:53:48Well, let's get out of here.
00:53:50Oh, we'll go this way.
00:53:52Come on with your charlie.
00:53:54I mean, your cards.
00:53:56Play, play.
00:53:58Oh, hello.
00:54:00Did you hear?
00:54:02Charlie's going to New York.
00:54:06What an extraordinary person.
00:54:08Who is she?
00:54:10Look, why don't you ask Steve about her?
00:54:12He loves to answer questions.
00:54:14Who is that with Steve Bennett?
00:54:16Who invited her aboard?
00:54:18That hasn't quite been settled yet.
00:54:20So you see, it's all a mistake.
00:54:22I'm no angel.
00:54:24I can't put money into a play, not even a good one.
00:54:26Oh, but the Green Swan isn't just a good play.
00:54:28It's a great play.
00:54:30Just let me tell you one scene, Mr. Bennett.
00:54:32It's a beautiful scene.
00:54:34Now, you're my husband, Humphrey.
00:54:36We've just separated, but I'm still mad about you.
00:54:38Well, what are you mad about?
00:54:40Oh, well, that's just in the play.
00:54:42Now then,
00:54:44where do you suppose he took her?
00:54:46Darling, darling,
00:54:48what have I done?
00:54:50Why have you shut me out of your life like this?
00:54:52If I must, I'll beg.
00:54:54But at least toss me
00:54:56a few crumbs of your affection.
00:54:58Well, I...
00:55:00Oh, no, no, dearest husband of mine.
00:55:02Husband?
00:55:04Take me back.
00:55:06I beg you all on behalf of your forgiveness.
00:55:08But look, it's no use.
00:55:10I'm no angel.
00:55:14Just let me ask you one thing.
00:55:16Well, honestly, Harriet,
00:55:18I might as well be married to the FBI.
00:55:20Harriet,
00:55:22you know the woman who came to see Mr. Bennett?
00:55:24It's his wife.
00:55:26His wife?
00:55:28Yes, his wife.
00:55:30Whose wife?
00:55:32The Bennetts. They've separated.
00:55:34Nick, did you know that?
00:55:36Well, I sort of suspected it.
00:55:38Well, I'm not going to stand by and see
00:55:40two such nice people wreck their lives.
00:55:42Do you know what I'm going to do?
00:55:44No. What?
00:55:46I'm going to ask her to spend the night.
00:55:48Oh, you can't do that.
00:55:50What's it to you?
00:55:52Well, maybe Bennett doesn't want her here.
00:55:54I'm sure he doesn't.
00:55:56I want to go to bed.
00:55:58You do?
00:56:00Yes, I'm tired.
00:56:02I'll call Mr. Bennett right now.
00:56:04We can put her in that cabin.
00:56:06Oh, she's his wife.
00:56:08No wonder Bennett's putting money in her show.
00:56:10Her show?
00:56:12Oh.
00:56:14Oh!
00:56:21Oh, Mr. Bennett?
00:56:23Mr. Bennett, now listen carefully.
00:56:25I want you to come to my cabin right away.
00:56:27But don't let anyone see you.
00:56:29Not even anyone.
00:56:31All right, I'll be there.
00:56:33And when I say I'll be there, I'll be there.
00:56:38Telephone's a wonderful thing.
00:56:40It ain't that wonderful.
00:56:42Oh, now, let me dream.
00:56:44Have you got my robe, Sam?
00:56:46Let me have it. I'm on my way.
00:56:50Why don't I pack you some extra pajamas for me?
00:56:52What about those striped ones I gave you last week?
00:56:54Those old pajamas?
00:56:56I thought they were nowhere.
00:56:58Oh, Sam, why don't you retire?
00:57:00Just pretend that suit you're wearing's a sleeping bag.
00:57:03In fact, you don't have to pretend.
00:57:05You're home.
00:57:07I'm unprepared for a weekend like this.
00:57:09All I bring is my suntan oil.
00:57:11Suntan oil?
00:57:13You're gilding the lily.
00:57:15What do you want with suntan oil?
00:57:17A freckle.
00:57:19Ah, that did it.
00:57:21Look out.
00:57:23Oh, please don't bother.
00:57:25Nonsense, dear. These will do for you.
00:57:27Oh, well, you're both very sweet.
00:57:29I don't have any intention of spending the night here.
00:57:31Just trust us. We know about these things.
00:57:35There you are.
00:57:37Oh, thank you so much.
00:57:39Incidentally, Mr. Bennet's cabin is right next door.
00:57:43Oh, yes.
00:57:45The lock on that door has never worked.
00:57:47I must tell someone about it.
00:57:49Good night, dear.
00:57:51Good night.
00:57:53Good night.
00:57:55She's sweet.
00:57:57My headache.
00:58:13Where do you think you're going? Trying to give us the slip, huh?
00:58:15Oh, no, I wouldn't do a thing like that.
00:58:17Not when I do it.
00:58:19Our little friend is trying to run away.
00:58:21Not me.
00:58:23Good night, boys. Frederick will fix you a place to sleep.
00:58:25You gentlemen gonna sleep four in a bed?
00:58:27What?
00:58:29Good night, Mr. Bennet. Good night.
00:58:31Don't forget to take your medicine.
00:58:33What for? To build me up.
00:58:35You better take plenty, or we're gonna tear you down.
00:58:37If I catch you within two feet of Miss Saunders...
00:58:39How'd you like a good punch in the nose?
00:58:41How would you like a good punch in the nose?
00:58:43Yeah?
00:58:45Yeah. What a fight.
00:58:47I don't know what you guys are...
00:58:49Get that robe off.
00:58:51No, we're gonna make sure that you can't leave the boat.
00:58:53Hey, what's the idea of pushing me around?
00:58:55Wait a minute. Don't give me that.
00:58:57Come here. If you'll only keep quiet.
00:58:59This is all right.
00:59:01Look out.
00:59:03That's unfair.
00:59:05Hey, I've got his clothes.
00:59:07No!
00:59:09This is unconstitutional.
00:59:11Go on, beat it, boys.
00:59:13Oh, you bunch of burglars. You'll get paid.
00:59:15You gotta get paid later in life.
00:59:19Oh, I tell you... Shut up, shut up.
00:59:21Now at least we'll know where to find you.
00:59:25Don't say a word. Nighty-night.
00:59:29Don't lock...
00:59:32I got it.
00:59:45Good evening. Good evening.
00:59:47Say, would you...
00:59:49Henchman?
00:59:53Oh, well...
01:00:19Come on.
01:00:49Who's that?
01:00:51Shh. Don't bother about details.
01:00:53Mr. Bennett!
01:00:55I was just passing through.
01:00:57Excuse me. They locked me in, took all my clothes.
01:00:59Three of them, the bib.
01:01:01Oh.
01:01:03But, Mr. Bennett, you're... You're wearing that necklace.
01:01:05Much worse if I weren't.
01:01:07Shh. Stand by.
01:01:11Now, you're sure you got everything?
01:01:13Oh, Mr. Bennett.
01:01:15Yes, I was just going to...
01:01:17I'm going in here.
01:01:19Oh, we understand.
01:01:21Yes, I know.
01:01:26I'm so happy for you.
01:01:32Mr. Bennett. Shh.
01:01:34This isn't the Lincoln Highway.
01:01:36I wish it were. You just go ahead with whatever you're doing.
01:01:42Yes? Yes, I'm...
01:01:44I'm on my way.
01:01:46Yeah.
01:01:51You should have a motorcycle.
01:01:53It would slow me down.
01:02:00Oh. Oh, sorry I missed.
01:02:02Shh. Is everything all right?
01:02:04Yes, I do. Yes.
01:02:10Rumpelmeyer.
01:02:12Well, what in the world?
01:02:14Shh. Oh, I'm having an awful...
01:02:16Oh, hello. Shut... Close the door.
01:02:18I... I won't be long.
01:02:20But I had these dressing gowns.
01:02:22Oh, I borrowed it. I lost my pajamas.
01:02:24Well, where are they?
01:02:26A van took them.
01:02:28The van has its own.
01:02:30I know, but he took them anyway. He doesn't want me running around loose.
01:02:32Why don't you sit over here?
01:02:34I'll fix you a nice warm cup of chocolate.
01:02:36Yes, I'm dressed for a thing like this.
01:02:38I... I can't stay very long. I have to get back.
01:02:40Oh, now, listen.
01:02:42I don't want you to worry about business or anything.
01:02:44Oh, I'm not worried, but they're after me.
01:02:46They're looking all over the boat.
01:02:48Oh, nobody's going to harm you, dear.
01:02:50Dear?
01:02:52While you're taking a sip of this nice, warm cocoa...
01:02:55Uh-huh?
01:02:57I want you to think real hard and try and remember...
01:02:59Uh-huh?
01:03:01Did you put my money into a Broadway show
01:03:03or give it to your wife or something like that?
01:03:05Oh, you thought I took your money and put it...
01:03:08My wife.
01:03:10Miss Graham.
01:03:12Well, isn't she your wife or anything?
01:03:14Oh, no, not even her anything.
01:03:17Why, I wouldn't put your money in anything foolish.
01:03:20Well, not anything that foolish.
01:03:22Well, that certainly takes a load off my mind.
01:03:25Yes, well, it should. I don't...
01:03:27Ah!
01:03:29I should wear a slip. I usually do.
01:03:31From now on, whenever I think of you, I'll remember you like this.
01:03:35Yes, but remember, there's another side to me.
01:03:37Oh, I'll bet.
01:03:39Yeah, and I'm glad.
01:03:41Hey, Steve, we want to ask you...
01:03:43What's the matter?
01:03:45He's gone.
01:03:46Gone? But he didn't have any clothes.
01:03:48Where can he go?
01:03:50Well, where can you go on a boat?
01:03:52Where's that sailor?
01:03:54Uh-oh. Come on, quick.
01:03:56I suppose he got out the window.
01:03:58Dad, why is everyone prowling around?
01:04:00Your father can't get any rest.
01:04:02Well, you see, Mother...
01:04:04You see Mr. Bennet prowling around.
01:04:06Oh, yes, but I wouldn't disturb him.
01:04:08He's with a woman he loves.
01:04:10Good night.
01:04:12Oh, come on.
01:04:16Well, it should.
01:04:18Well, whatever your investment is,
01:04:20when it comes in, Uncle has to double the whole thing.
01:04:23He has to double it?
01:04:25Oh, I can see his face when he finds out I did it for you.
01:04:28And I can see my face looking for another job.
01:04:31Gwen!
01:04:33Gwen!
01:04:36No, no, no.
01:04:38Are you all right?
01:04:40Gwen!
01:04:42Come on, let's go in.
01:04:44We thought we heard someone in here.
01:04:46That's silly, Pudgy. How could you hear anyone?
01:04:49Unless it was me on the phone, or it was I.
01:04:52Which is it? I never can remember.
01:04:54We heard a man's voice.
01:04:56Dan, are you implying that I...
01:04:58No, I was just asking.
01:05:00We thought we heard him in here.
01:05:02Yeah, a boy's laughter that could only belong to a certain party.
01:05:05Come out, come out, wherever you are.
01:05:07Well, if you don't believe me...
01:05:09Is he in there?
01:05:11There's just no use in discussing it any further.
01:05:15Not any further at all.
01:05:17Now, Dolly, we heard a man talking.
01:05:20Did you? Oh, that was the radio.
01:05:22I was listening. You know I always listened to the radio.
01:05:25I couldn't sleep. Well, there was an awful lot of laughing.
01:05:27Yes, there was. Oh, that was Happy Jack, the fireman.
01:05:29Oh, his program's a scream.
01:05:31Wait. I'll see if it's still on.
01:05:33Happy Jack, Happy Jack, the fireman, Happy Jack.
01:05:36It's, uh, sort of dead, isn't it?
01:05:39Maybe went to a fire.
01:05:41Uh-oh. Hey, what's this?
01:05:43It isn't plugged in.
01:05:45Well, I must have pulled it out when I answered the door.
01:05:47Oh, that's right.
01:05:49Hey, wait a minute.
01:05:51You didn't answer the door. We came right in.
01:05:54Oh, then you must have pulled it out.
01:05:56Say, what goes on here?
01:05:59Two cups.
01:06:01Well, I, uh...
01:06:03You know I always have a second cup, don't I, Pudgy?
01:06:05Ah, Gwen.
01:06:07All right, all right.
01:06:09There is a man in the room, and he's under the bed.
01:06:11Now, what do you think of that?
01:06:13Well, there's no one there.
01:06:15Well, I told you, there's nobody there.
01:06:17Well!
01:06:19Come on.
01:06:41He must have gone out there on deck.
01:06:49Say, you men see anybody around here?
01:06:51No, sir. No one out here.
01:06:53We thought we'd get some bait for in the morning.
01:06:55You might want to go fishing.
01:06:57Good idea.
01:06:59Hey, Bill, give us a hand, will you?
01:07:01We want to get a little bait.
01:07:03Okay. Hook her up.
01:07:05Okay, take it away, Andy.
01:07:19Well, I guess we were wrong.
01:07:21I'm sorry.
01:07:23Good night, my dear.
01:07:25Good night.
01:07:27Now, I think I'll go to sleep.
01:07:29Honey, honey, I'm really sorry.
01:07:31Oh, not now, then.
01:07:33Good night.
01:07:39Hey.
01:07:41Hey.
01:07:43Hey.
01:07:47Hey.
01:08:08Hello, Farrell.
01:08:13I've been fishing the hard way.
01:08:15Oh!
01:08:17Oh! Oh! Oh!
01:08:19Oh!
01:08:23Oh!
01:08:25Not only a Rumpelmeyer,
01:08:27but also a Sitzenflugel.
01:08:29Oh!
01:08:33Good morning.
01:08:35Good morning, Samuel.
01:08:37Oh, don't get up. Where's everybody?
01:08:39I'm using their bait.
01:08:41Nobody didn't get up yet.
01:08:43Oh, I see.
01:08:45Samuel, have you been with Mr. Bennet long?
01:08:47Oh, yes.
01:08:49Well, is anything the matter with him?
01:08:51Isn't he peculiar?
01:08:53I mean, he isn't married, is he?
01:08:55No.
01:08:57He ain't that peculiar.
01:08:59Thank you, Samuel. Hope you catch a whale.
01:09:01Yes.
01:09:07Well, hello there, you all.
01:09:10My, aren't you chipper this morning.
01:09:12Well, have you ever seen such a morning?
01:09:16Dutchie.
01:09:18Dutchie, dear.
01:09:20I'm going to leave you $100,000 in my will.
01:09:22Oh, blessings on you, Frederick.
01:09:24Gwen, you act just like a girl in love.
01:09:28Do I?
01:09:30Oh, pardon us, Gwen, but a Mr. Bishop
01:09:32tried to reach you on the telephone early this morning.
01:09:34Oh, uh...
01:09:36Well, if he calls again, no matter where I am,
01:09:38I'll be in swimming.
01:09:40Um, I know who the other little lovebird is.
01:09:43The flamingo seems to work a strange magic.
01:09:46We have a veritable boatload of love.
01:09:48What do you mean, Auntie?
01:09:50Well, Mr. and Mrs. Bennet are back together again.
01:09:54Isn't that nice?
01:09:56Isn't that wonderful?
01:09:58What?
01:10:00And I don't mind telling you, we deserve a little of the credit.
01:10:03You'll be surprised.
01:10:05Yes.
01:10:07It was a plot.
01:10:09We hatched it.
01:10:11There is no Mrs. Bennet. He's not married.
01:10:13But we know differently, dear.
01:10:15But you can't know differently. He's just not, that's all.
01:10:18He told me he's not, and his man just told me to,
01:10:20and he's been with him for years.
01:10:22But we heard them talking together.
01:10:24I don't care what you heard. They're not married.
01:10:26She's nothing to him, nothing at all.
01:10:28He told me so himself.
01:10:30Good heavens.
01:10:32And on our boat.
01:10:34It's ghastly.
01:10:36Mr. Bennet was in Miss Graham's room last night.
01:10:40We saw him go in.
01:10:42We were happy about it.
01:10:44We arranged it.
01:10:46Oh, my soul.
01:10:48Oh, Auntie.
01:10:52Good morning, Samuel.
01:10:54Good morning.
01:10:56You look radiant.
01:10:58Gainsborough should have painted you.
01:11:00Hello.
01:11:02I met him last night.
01:11:04You're sleeping with fish.
01:11:06Don't worry about those little things.
01:11:08What time is it?
01:11:10You got your hourglass with you?
01:11:12Yes.
01:11:16Never mind. What day is it?
01:11:18On your little hand, it's 10 o'clock.
01:11:2010 o'clock.
01:11:22Not 8 or 7 or 9, but 10 o'clock.
01:11:24In six more hours, it'll be Christmas.
01:11:26Christmas?
01:11:28Has Mr. Roosevelt been moving them holidays around again?
01:11:30Hold it, Sam.
01:11:32Well, hello.
01:11:34My dear Miss Saunders, good morning.
01:11:36Well, was there ever such a morning?
01:11:38No, never. Never such a night either.
01:11:40Yes, fun, wasn't it?
01:11:42What's the matter?
01:11:44Nothing's the matter.
01:11:46Why don't you just go on and do whatever you were going to do?
01:11:48I thought maybe I'd have a little coffee and sit with you.
01:11:50Why don't you have your coffee with Miss Graham, who's nothing to you?
01:11:52She's not up yet.
01:11:54I mean, why would I want to have coffee with Miss Graham?
01:11:56Mr. Bennet, you're a shameless and unmitigated liar.
01:11:58Oh, don't say that. Don't ever say that.
01:12:00But you are. You lied to me.
01:12:02Oh, please, be quiet.
01:12:04Just answer one question.
01:12:06Were you in Miss Graham's room last night?
01:12:08Oh, yes, but I...
01:12:10Thanks. Thank you very much.
01:12:12Oh, Miss Saunders, you see...
01:12:14Plainly.
01:12:16Look what came up, Miss Saunders.
01:12:18Oh, go soak your head.
01:12:20Hey, boss.
01:12:22Hey, boss, I got a great big...
01:12:24Oh, why don't you fall overboard?
01:12:26What a short Christmas.
01:12:31Linda.
01:12:33Go away, Dick.
01:12:35How would you like to make $3,333?
01:12:39What?
01:12:41And 33 cents.
01:12:43Go away.
01:12:47How about $6,666?
01:12:51And 66 cents?
01:12:53Yeah.
01:12:55Come in.
01:12:59Where?
01:13:01Oh, well, fix that red oil right on the floor.
01:13:03Oh, that's good.
01:13:11Oh, hello.
01:13:13Would you put some right here, please?
01:13:15Surely, surely.
01:13:17Here's a chair here, Mr. Bennet.
01:13:19Oh, thank you.
01:13:21Oh, that's all right. Don't get up.
01:13:23Is she...
01:13:25Yes.
01:13:34Lovely morning, isn't it?
01:13:38I feel a little chill myself.
01:13:40Where's your Miss Graham?
01:13:42My? Oh, I don't know.
01:13:44She's charming.
01:13:46Where did you meet her?
01:13:48At the office. Look at Van.
01:13:50I must remember to eat more raw meat.
01:13:52Mr. Bennet,
01:13:54you seem to have established a reputation for integrity.
01:13:56Yeah.
01:13:58Tell me, was Dick trying to hide from Miss Graham
01:14:00when she arrived last night?
01:14:02I was trying to hide.
01:14:04Lots of people hide.
01:14:06Including my husband?
01:14:08Here I am, Barnacle Bill, the sailor.
01:14:10Sorry to be late, honey.
01:14:12Tried my luck off the stern.
01:14:14Oh, you should have seen the one that got away.
01:14:16I thought she was still sleeping.
01:14:18Harriet, darling, I want to know once and for all
01:14:20what is that Graham woman to you?
01:14:22I told you, she's nothing to me. She's Bennet's friend.
01:14:24Oh, she is not. She's nothing to me either.
01:14:26Well, I don't believe it.
01:14:28What were you doing in her room?
01:14:30I had to go through her room to get to your room.
01:14:32What? Oh, that is...
01:14:34Then you were in Gwen's room. No.
01:14:36Were you? Yes.
01:14:38What? How did you get into her room?
01:14:40We had your clothes.
01:14:42I was wearing Mrs. Ralston's dressing gown, the pink one with feathers.
01:14:44Feathers? Yes.
01:14:46What were you doing in my niece's room?
01:14:48Mr. Bennet, if you tell...
01:14:50If I tell, you'll be there if I could.
01:14:52What did you say? What?
01:14:54I don't chew my cabbage twice.
01:14:56Why did you go to her room?
01:14:58She asked me to and dropped that body.
01:15:00Gwen, I can't believe this.
01:15:02How dare you say such a thing?
01:15:04I have to. It's the truth.
01:15:06But this is no time for truth.
01:15:08Yes, it is. There's no better time.
01:15:10Bennet, I'm going to beat you into a mule.
01:15:12Oh, don't hurt him.
01:15:14No! Bennet!
01:15:18What is going on here?
01:15:20Quiet, everybody. Van!
01:15:22What are you doing to my darling?
01:15:24Darling? Huh?
01:15:26What are you doing to my husband?
01:15:28I'm not your husband. I'm not anybody's husband.
01:15:30Well, what's a husband but a name?
01:15:32It isn't bell or book or candlelight that makes a marriage.
01:15:36It's what's in two hearts that really matters.
01:15:39Leave my heart out of this. It never met yours.
01:15:41I mean it won't.
01:15:43Steve, I'll go.
01:15:45I'll go my way alone.
01:15:47But I'll take little Stevie with me.
01:15:49Yeah, well, take...
01:15:51Little Stevie?
01:15:53Stevie? Who's little Stevie?
01:15:55You're putting her up to it, Donnelly.
01:15:57There's no little Stevie.
01:15:59Our hearts were never anything.
01:16:01I only met her yesterday and you introduced me to her.
01:16:03Oh, take it like a man, Bennet.
01:16:07Oh, Harriet!
01:16:09Can!
01:16:11Mr. Bennet, of all the despicable things that you've done,
01:16:13this is the lowest.
01:16:15Breaking up a happily married couple, lying to save your own neck.
01:16:17I didn't lie. I didn't lie.
01:16:19Why, you even tried to break us up.
01:16:21Yes, how about that?
01:16:23Ben, at least as a man of honor, he knows that I'm completely innocent.
01:16:25Our marriage is going to be based on trust.
01:16:27Marriage?
01:16:29Yes, darling, marriage.
01:16:31Come on, Ben.
01:16:33But listen!
01:16:35Come, my dear.
01:16:37Oh!
01:16:41Thanks.
01:16:51Thanks.
01:16:53310 Biscayne Building.
01:16:55My office hours are from 2 to 4.
01:16:592 to 4.
01:17:014.
01:17:03Oh, Father, time, get going.
01:17:05Get the lead out of your sarong.
01:17:11Come on.
01:17:27Never mind.
01:17:29Just wait a minute.
01:17:31Shh!
01:17:41Shh!
01:18:11Shh!
01:18:13Shh!
01:18:39Say, what are you doing?
01:18:41There's less than an hour left.
01:18:43Ben and I are changing every clock on the boat,
01:18:45and we've hooked Bennett's watch.
01:18:47Well, what's the idea?
01:18:49Well, he'll think the bet's over ahead of time, start lying, and we'll have him.
01:18:51Oh.
01:18:53That's the best idea you've had.
01:18:55In fact, it's the first idea you've had.
01:18:57Where can I find Miss Saunders?
01:18:59On the upper deck, sir.
01:19:01You can just wait here.
01:19:03I'll be here.
01:19:05Well, maybe you're right. I don't...
01:19:11Mr. Bennett! Mr. Bennett!
01:19:13It's Mr. Bishop!
01:19:15Mr. Bishop!
01:19:17Mr. Bishop!
01:19:19Mr. Bishop!
01:19:21Mr. Bishop!
01:19:23Mr. Bishop!
01:19:25Mr. Bennett! Mr. Bennett!
01:19:27It's Mr. Bishop.
01:19:29Mr. Bishop, and I don't want to see him.
01:19:31The only reason I'm talking to you is because I don't want to talk to him.
01:19:33You see him.
01:19:35Huh?
01:19:37You promised me you'd have those green things by now.
01:19:39Well, it's almost 4 o'clock.
01:19:41Yeah, but where are you?
01:19:43What green things?
01:19:45Oh, well, you know, green things.
01:19:47What green things are you going to get at 4 o'clock?
01:19:49And no evasions.
01:19:51Here you are, Mr. Bishop.
01:19:53Miss Saunders.
01:19:55Miss Saunders? Where the...
01:19:57Yes, with an A-U. Where is she?
01:19:59Oh, she went that way.
01:20:01How far?
01:20:03Not far.
01:20:05Well, how far?
01:20:07Well, distance is only a question of relativity, as Einstein said.
01:20:09Now, you take the caterpillar.
01:20:11Hey, cut that out.
01:20:13From here to where Miss Saunders is would be about 20 miles to a caterpillar.
01:20:15Of course, with you it's different.
01:20:17You're no caterpillar.
01:20:19You wouldn't be wearing a double-breasted suit, and that's nice too.
01:20:21Mr. Bishop, Mr. Darling. Mr. Van Dusen.
01:20:23Mr. Rauston.
01:20:25Mr. Bishop, stop it.
01:20:27Leonard, are you trying to waste time?
01:20:29Yes.
01:20:31Mr. Rauston, you are Miss Saunders' uncle?
01:20:33Yes.
01:20:35Mr. Rauston, I am chairman of the collection committee for the Seaside Home.
01:20:37Your niece signed a note guaranteeing $40,000,
01:20:39none of which we have received.
01:20:41She has already collected $10,000.
01:20:43$10,000?
01:20:45And she has been avoiding me
01:20:47and refuses to divulge what she did with these charity funds.
01:20:49I'm afraid the committee is all for referring the matter to the police.
01:20:51Oh, you mean she can go to jail?
01:20:53She most certainly can.
01:20:55$10,000?
01:20:57Those green things.
01:20:59Anderson Stevens.
01:21:01Yes, sir.
01:21:03Come here. Come on, fellas.
01:21:05Don't let Mr. Bennet move from this spot. Will you excuse us, Mr. Bishop?
01:21:07Mr. Rauston, I have no time.
01:21:09We have even less. We'll be right back.
01:21:15Come in here. Let's get away from that door.
01:21:17$10,000.
01:21:19That's Gwen's money.
01:21:21Why, of course.
01:21:23Yeah, she gave Bennet the money, and he bet it.
01:21:25Well, that's why they were together so much.
01:21:27Hey, that's why he went to her room.
01:21:29Oh, I promised to double it.
01:21:31If he wins, gee, Husserlfab will cost me $20,000 more.
01:21:35Oh, wait.
01:21:37He's trapped. We got him.
01:21:39We'll get Bishop to ask him what he did with Gwen's money.
01:21:41That's right.
01:21:43He can't answer without either lying or divulging the bet.
01:21:45Hey, we've got him red-handed.
01:21:47Come on.
01:21:55Anderson, Stevens, escort Mr. Bennet into the living room.
01:21:57Oh, now, what is this?
01:21:59Wait a minute.
01:22:01Mr. Bishop, that man has your $10,000.
01:22:03Miss Saunders gave it to him.
01:22:05To him, that lunatic is a madman.
01:22:07Now, you do just as we say. You ask him what he did with it.
01:22:09Yes, keep asking. Don't let up.
01:22:11Just keep asking.
01:22:13What he did to you, trust me.
01:22:15Wait a minute. This is a free boat, isn't it?
01:22:17Sorry, sir. Don't get so physical.
01:22:19I got a brother who's a Marine.
01:22:21All right, go ahead and ask him.
01:22:23Young man, I understand you have my $10,000.
01:22:25Oh, Mr. Bishop, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Bishop, Mr. Stevens.
01:22:27We're sailors.
01:22:29Oh, Dr. Zarek, Mr. Bishop.
01:22:31Mr. Ralston, Dr. Zarek.
01:22:33Oh, Mr. Donnelly, Mr. Bishop.
01:22:35Dr. Zarek, meet the Navy.
01:22:37Mr. Bishop, answer my question.
01:22:39Did Miss Saunders give you $10,000?
01:22:41I'll tell you. She came...
01:22:43Hello there.
01:22:45Hello, Uncle.
01:22:47And Mr. Bishop, why, you look splendid.
01:22:49And such rosy cheeks. Have you been yachting, doesn't he?
01:22:51Miss Saunders, don't ask her. Ask him.
01:22:53Mr. Bennett, did Miss Saunders give you $10,000?
01:22:57And, Mr. Bennett, you're going to get the first piece.
01:22:59Miss Saunders.
01:23:01Dr. Zarek, that wonderful book.
01:23:03Mr. Bishop, have you seen this book yet?
01:23:05I could hardly put it down.
01:23:07Bishop, answer Mr. Bishop's question.
01:23:09Oh, I told you.
01:23:11What did you say?
01:23:13Where is that $10,000?
01:23:15Where is the $10,000
01:23:17Miss Saunders gave you?
01:23:19What time is it?
01:23:21Tea time. Tea, everybody.
01:23:23It's almost 4 o'clock.
01:23:25Time for tea. Tea for tea tea.
01:23:27We don't want any tea.
01:23:29Take that stuff away from him.
01:23:31I'll serve yours myself, Mr. Bishop.
01:23:33I demand to know what he did with that...
01:23:35Oh, that's too bad.
01:23:37I'm all right.
01:23:39I want to know what you did with it.
01:23:41Oh, Mr. Bishop, did you meet Mrs. Rawson, Mrs. Van Dusen,
01:23:43Mr. Van Dusen, Mr. Bishop?
01:23:45That's a madhouse.
01:23:47Practically. Perhaps I could be of some help.
01:23:49Shut up. I beg your pardon. He's my guest.
01:23:51Answer the question. Sit down.
01:23:53What did you do with the $10,000 you got from Gwen?
01:23:55Samuel!
01:23:57Samuel, it's tea time. One hunk or two.
01:23:59Two lumps of lemon in mine, please.
01:24:01What did you say?
01:24:03I'll just take a cookie.
01:24:05Crumpets or crumpets?
01:24:07Oh, yes, you do. Crumpets?
01:24:09Pancakes or what?
01:24:11Crumpets or no crumpets.
01:24:13Either you'll answer my question or I'll send for the police
01:24:15and charge this girl with embezzling charity money.
01:24:17This can hardly be kept out of the newspapers.
01:24:19Well, it'll certainly be in my paper.
01:24:21Well, you wouldn't print that.
01:24:23This is news. Business is business,
01:24:25and news is my business.
01:24:27Bennett,
01:24:29I think I'll find words this time
01:24:31that'll keep you awake.
01:24:33Come on, tell us the truth.
01:24:35What did you do with Gwen's $10,000?
01:24:37Oh, do you really want to know?
01:24:39I must know.
01:24:41And you want him to know what I did with the money?
01:24:43Yes.
01:24:45And you want him to know?
01:24:47Yes.
01:24:49Answer him.
01:24:51Well, if you all really want to know
01:24:53what I did with the $10,000...
01:24:55Yes.
01:24:57Ask Mr. Ralston.
01:24:59Me? No, no, I don't know.
01:25:01This is a very serious matter.
01:25:03I insist that you answer him now,
01:25:05or forfeit.
01:25:07Who's here?
01:25:09Oh, the ladies. Hello, ladies.
01:25:11What is this?
01:25:13Answer that question. Oh, I'll answer the phone.
01:25:15It didn't ring. Well, let's not wait until the last minute.
01:25:17What did you do with the money?
01:25:19The first thing I did was count it.
01:25:21Then what did you do? Well, I put it in an envelope.
01:25:23Then what did you do?
01:25:25Who, me? Yes, yes.
01:25:27Hurry, hurry.
01:25:29I invested it. In what?
01:25:33Oh, in a wonderful
01:25:35common stock that doubled itself
01:25:37all double in 24 hours.
01:25:39No, you didn't. You lose.
01:25:41I do not. I win.
01:25:43You lose. What you just said makes you lose.
01:25:45That's after 4 o'clock.
01:25:47No, no, no.
01:25:49It's only a quarter of 4 now.
01:25:51We moved the clock ahead. Yes, but I set it back.
01:25:53I set it ahead.
01:25:55Again? That's illegal.
01:25:57Oh, no. There's nothing in the bet against that.
01:25:59All right, boys. Will someone tell me
01:26:01what this is all about immediately?
01:26:03I'm sorry, old boy. 5 o'clock, old boy.
01:26:05Yes, sir.
01:26:11I lose.
01:26:13I've lost.
01:26:19I guess it's my fault, boss.
01:26:21I didn't know I was doing nothing fooling with the clock.
01:26:23Oh, never mind, sir.
01:26:25What'd you say? I say I come in here a while ago
01:26:27and I seen by my watch that the clock was wrong,
01:26:29so I moved it back 15 minutes.
01:26:31When it comes to watches,
01:26:33I'm mistaken for details.
01:26:35Oh, Sam!
01:26:37Then that's the right time.
01:26:39Well, thanks, fellas. My condolences.
01:26:41Thank you. Better luck next time. Thank you.
01:26:43I didn't know I was doing nothing wrong.
01:26:45Now, wait a minute. How do we know...
01:26:47Listen.
01:26:49When you hear the tone,
01:26:51the time will be 3 minutes after 4.
01:26:53Did you hear the tone, Pudgy?
01:26:55Yeah. Samuel, I'm gonna buy you a platinum watch.
01:26:57In the meantime, you can give me your old one.
01:26:59Yes. That belongs to you anyway.
01:27:01Yeah.
01:27:03Mr. Bennett, would you be good enough to explain?
01:27:05Oh, yes, I will.
01:27:07You see, I bet that... Oh, won't you sit down?
01:27:09I bet them $10,000 of Gwen's charity money
01:27:11that I could... Yes?
01:27:13That I could lie for 24 hours.
01:27:15It's a silly bet, but now that I've won,
01:27:17it's gonna be such a relief to tell the truth.
01:27:19Oh, Mrs. Donnelly, Dick never knew Linda.
01:27:21He didn't?
01:27:23No, that was my biggest whopper. She's an old friend of mine.
01:27:25Went to Miami High together.
01:27:27Oh, Dick, have I?
01:27:29Well, you certainly have.
01:27:31And, Linda, old girl, I'm personally going to see
01:27:33that someone gives you the money for your show.
01:27:35Oh, that's wonderful.
01:27:37Thank you so much, Mrs. Raulston.
01:27:39Oh, I just can't wait to tell Charlie.
01:27:41Goodbye.
01:27:43She's crazy about Charlie.
01:27:45Bennett, you were not lying.
01:27:47Huh?
01:27:49I'm not as gullible as those fellas, you know.
01:27:51What was that stock you bought?
01:27:53Oh, well, uh, could it have been Los Lomas Quicksilver?
01:27:55Come on, come on.
01:27:57You can't leave me out of a good thing, you know.
01:27:59Well, it's T.T.'s personal...
01:28:01What about it, T.T.?
01:28:03It's highly speculative.
01:28:05I can afford to take a flyer if you can. Come on outside.
01:28:07All right.
01:28:09Why, T.T., this is 2-2.
01:28:11Now, you see, Mr. Bishop,
01:28:13you've been worrying about nothing, nothing at all.
01:28:15Mr. Bennett has the $20,000.
01:28:17Uncle's gonna double it. That makes $30,000.
01:28:19No, I mean $40,000, you see.
01:28:21Oh, well.
01:28:23And as for you, Mr. Bennett, may I see you outside for a minute?
01:28:25Oh, you bet.
01:28:27Mr. Bennett, may I?
01:28:29Oh, Mrs. Van Dusen, you know what I said about you?
01:28:31Yes.
01:28:33Well, I didn't mean that. You look about 18.
01:28:35Oh.
01:28:37Well, 28, even on a clear day.
01:28:39Oh, flatterer. There, you see, dear?
01:28:41And, Van, you know what I said about you?
01:28:43I meant that.
01:28:45So, you made a bet to lie for 24 hours.
01:28:47That's the truth.
01:28:49Oh, well, then you didn't mean it when you said you'd like to kiss me.
01:28:51Well, I'll tell you a bigger lie than that.
01:28:53What?
01:28:55I don't love you, and I don't think I could kiss you till your ears fly off.
01:28:57Well, there's no harm in trying.
01:28:59No, there isn't.
01:29:03Not only a sitzenflugel,
01:29:05but also a wolfenschnitz.
