00:01:35 #1 I must have stolen the crown jewel.
00:01:36 #2 Shall we announce you?
00:01:37 #3 Oh, no, no.
00:01:38 #4 I'll blow my own walls.
00:01:39 #5 He's in, Ruch, you better wait here.
00:01:41 #6 I'll be back in 10 minutes.
00:01:42 #7 Even 10 minutes is a long...
00:01:46 #8 What did you say?
00:01:53 #9 Oh, go ahead.
00:01:54 #10 Oh, I just said, even 10 minutes is a long time
00:01:56 #11 to be away from you.
00:01:57 #12 I heard you the first time.
00:01:59 #13 I like it.
00:01:59 #14 That's why I have to say it again.
00:02:02 #15 I can stand being spoiled a little.
00:02:03 #16 The gentleman I'm going in to see did very little spoiling.
00:02:06 #17 I'd like to spoil him just once.
00:02:07 #18 I'm sure you don't want me to go in with you.
00:02:08 #19 Oh, no, I can handle it.
00:02:09 #20 Well, if things get rough, remember I'm here.
00:02:11 #21 I'll come around and talk to him.
00:02:14 #22 Well, hello, Jim.
00:02:15 #23 Hello, how are you?
00:02:16 #24 Hi, Hilda.
00:02:17 #25 Welcome back.
00:02:18 #26 Hello, Hilda.
00:02:19 #27 How are you doing?
00:02:20 #28 Good.
00:02:21 #29 Hi, Hilda.
00:02:22 #30 Hello, Hilda.
00:02:23 #31 Hello, Beatrice.
00:02:24 #32 How's the advice to the love law?
00:02:25 #33 Fine.
00:02:26 #34 My cat just had kittens again.
00:02:27 #35 It's her own fault.
00:02:28 #36 Yeah, hello, Hilda.
00:02:29 #37 Glad to see you back.
00:02:30 #38 What?
00:02:31 #39 Hi, Jim.
00:02:32 #40 You still around?
00:02:33 #41 Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:02:34 #42 You all right?
00:02:35 #43 A little more around the chin, boys.
00:02:37 #44 What do you want?
00:02:38 #45 Your ex-wife is here.
00:02:39 #46 Do you want to see her?
00:02:42 #47 Well, hello, Hildy.
00:02:44 #48 Hello, Walder.
00:02:45 #49 Hi, Heldy.
00:02:46 #50 Oh, hello, Louie.
00:02:48 #51 How's the big slot machine, King?
00:02:49 #52 Oh, I ain't doing that no more.
00:02:50 #53 I'm retired.
00:02:51 #54 You know what I mean?
00:02:52 #55 Say, Walter, hello, Hildy.
00:02:54 #56 Hello, Hildy.
00:02:55 #57 Listen, Walter, I thought you ought to know
00:02:56 #58 that the governor didn't sign that reprieve. What?
00:02:59 #59 And tomorrow morning Earl Williams dies,
00:03:00 #60 makes a sucker out of it.
00:03:02 #61 Well, what are you going to do?
00:03:04 #62 Get the governor on the phone. I can't. Why not? Can't locate him. He's out fishing.
00:03:08 #63 How many places to fish are there?
00:03:10 #64 Well, at least two, the Atlantic and Pacific.
00:03:12 #65 All right, that simplifies it, doesn't it? Oh, yeah.
00:03:14 #66 Get him on the phone.
00:03:14 #67 I'm telling what.
00:03:15 #68 Quiet, Duffy. He's thinking.
00:03:17 #69 Hm.
00:03:18 #70 Tell him if you're repriever Williams will support him for Senator.
00:03:21 #71 What?
00:03:22 #72 Tell him the morning poster will be behind him hook,
00:03:23 #73 line, and sinker.
00:03:24 #74 But you can't do that, don't you?
00:03:25 #75 Because we've been a Democratic paper for over 20 years. All right.
00:03:28 #76 After we get the reprieve, we'll be Democratic again.
00:03:31 #77 Oh, wow.
00:03:31 #78 Go on, Duffy. Get going.
00:03:32 #79 Remember, the morning poster expects every city editor
00:03:34 #80 to do his duty.
00:03:36 #81 You two, Louis. Get out of here.
00:03:37 #82 OK, boy.
00:03:38 #83 Well, well, I see you're still at it.
00:03:46 #84 It's the first time I've ever dup across the governor.
00:03:47 #85 What can I do for you?
00:03:49 #86 Well, would you mind if I sat down?
00:03:51 #87 There's been a lamp burning in the window for your honey here.
00:03:54 #88 Oh, I jumped out that window a long time ago, Walter.
00:03:56 #89 Mm-hmm.
00:04:00 #90 Oh, may I have one of those?
00:04:03 #91 Sure.
00:04:07 #92 And the match.
00:04:10 #93 Thank you.
00:04:10 #94 Oh, well.
00:04:16 #95 How long is it?
00:04:17 #96 How long is what?
00:04:18 #97 You know what?
00:04:20 #98 How long is it since we've seen each other?
00:04:23 #99 Oh, well, let's see.
00:04:25 #100 I spent six weeks in Reno, then Bermuda, about four months, I guess.
00:04:29 #101 Seems like yesterday to me.
00:04:32 #102 Maybe it was yesterday, Hildy. Been seeing me in your dreams.
00:04:36 #103 Oh, no, Mama doesn't dream about you anymore, Wally.
00:04:38 #104 You wouldn't know the old girl now.
00:04:39 #105 Ah, yes I would. I'd know you any time, any place.
00:04:41 #106 Any place, anywhere.
00:04:43 #107 Ah, you're repeating yourself, Wally.
00:04:45 #108 That's the speech you made the night you proposed.
00:04:47 #109 Yeah, I know that she'll still remember it.
00:04:48 #110 Of course I remember it. If I didn't remember it, I wouldn't have divorced you.
00:04:51 #111 Yeah, it's all I wish you hadn't done that, Hildy.
00:04:53 #112 Done what?
00:04:54 #113 Divorced me.
00:04:55 #114 Makes a father lose all faith in himself.
00:04:57 #115 Gives him a... almost gives him a feigning he wasn't wanted.
00:05:00 #116 Oh, now, look, Junior, that's what divorces are for.
00:05:03 #117 Nonsense. You've got an old-fashioned idea.
00:05:05 #118 Divorce is something that lasts forever till death do us part.
00:05:07 #119 Why, divorce doesn't mean anything nowadays, Hildy.
00:05:10 #120 Just a few words. Mumbled over your bad judge.
00:05:12 #121 We've got something between us. Nothing can change.
00:05:15 #122 Oh, well, I suppose you're right, no way, won't you?
00:05:18 #123 Sure, I'm right.
00:05:19 #124 I am fond of you, you know.
00:05:21 #125 Yeah, that girl?
00:05:22 #126 I often wish you weren't such a stinker.
00:05:24 #127 Here.
00:05:26 #128 Latin, I suppose. You must come up and meet my mother.
00:05:29 #129 She'd like that high phrase.
00:05:30 #130 And why on earth did you promise not to fight the divorce
00:05:31 #131 and do everything you possibly could to come up the whole works?
00:05:34 #132 Well, I meant to let you go, Hildy, but you know how it is.
00:05:36 #133 You never miss the water till the well runs dry.
00:05:39 #134 Oh, big fat lummocks like you,
00:05:40 #135 hiring an aeroplane to ride Hildy.
00:05:42 #136 Don't be hasty. Remember my dimple, Walter.
00:05:46 #137 Delayed out of force 20 minutes while the judge went out to watch it.
00:05:48 #138 Well, I don't want to brag, but I've still got the dimple
00:05:51 #139 and in the same place.
00:05:53 #140 Look, Hildy, I only acted like any husband who didn't want to see his home broken up.
00:05:56 #141 What home?
00:05:57 #142 What home? Don't you remember the home I promised you?
00:05:59 #143 Sure I do.
00:06:00 #144 That was the one we were to have right after the honeymoon.
00:06:03 #145 That honeymoon.
00:06:04 #146 Was it my fault? Did I know that coal mine was gonna have another cave in?
00:06:08 #147 I intended to be with you on our honeymoon, Hildy. Honest, I did.
00:06:11 #148 All I know is that instead of two weeks in Atlantic City with my bride room,
00:06:15 #149 I spent two weeks in a coal mine with John Kropsky.
00:06:18 #150 You don't deny that, do you, Walter?
00:06:19 #151 Denied? I'm proud of it.
00:06:21 #152 We beat the whole country on that story.
00:06:22 #153 I suppose we did. That isn't what I got married for.
00:06:25 #154 Oh, what is the good of...
00:06:26 #155 Look, now, look, Walter, what I came up here to tell you
00:06:30 #156 is that you must stop phoning me a dozen times a day,
00:06:32 #157 sending me 20 telegrams.
00:06:34 #158 All right, a beautiful telegram, don't I?
00:06:35 #159 Everybody says so.
00:06:36 #160 Are you gonna listen to what I have to say?
00:06:38 #161 Look, look, what's the use of fighting, Hilda?
00:06:40 #162 I'll tell you what you do. You come back to work on the paper.
00:06:42 #163 If you find you can't get along in a friendly fashion,
00:06:44 #164 we'll get married again.
00:06:46 #165 What?
00:06:47 #166 Certainly, I haven't any hard feelings.
00:06:49 #167 Oh, Walter, you're wonderful.
00:06:51 #168 and I'll owe some sort of way.
00:06:52 #169 Now will you please be quiet just long enough for me
00:06:54 #170 to tell you what I came up here to say?
00:06:55 #171 I'm going to have some lunch.
00:06:56 #172 And you come here.
00:06:57 #173 I have a lunch date already.
00:06:58 #174 I cannot break it.
00:06:59 #175 Why don't you take your hands off me?
00:07:00 #176 What are you playing?
00:07:01 #177 Osteopath?
00:07:02 #178 Tempered.
00:07:03 #179 Oh, listen, Walter.
00:07:04 #180 You are no longer my husband and no longer my boss.
00:07:07 #181 And you're not going to be my boss.
00:07:09 #182 What's that supposed to mean?
00:07:10 #183 Just what I say.
00:07:11 #184 You mean you're not coming back to work on the paper?
00:07:13 #185 All right, Mr. Burns, for the first time today.
00:07:15 #186 Ah, got a better offer, huh?
00:07:17 #187 Oh, bet I've got a better one.
00:07:18 #188 All right.
00:07:19 #189 Go on.
00:07:20 #190 That's the gratitude I get.
00:07:22 #191 What way would you give me a college girl from a school journalism?
00:07:26 #192 I'd take a doll-faced hick.
00:07:27 #193 It wouldn't take me if I hadn't been doll-faced.
00:07:29 #194 I should have. I told you to have a face around here.
00:07:31 #195 I'd look at it without shuddering.
00:07:32 #196 I made a great reporter out of your healthy,
00:07:34 #197 but you won't be as good on any other paper in New North.
00:07:36 #198 We're a team. That's what we are.
00:07:37 #199 You're the main Joe in the paper, and he's all about it.
00:07:39 #200 So American!
00:07:41 #201 Oh, all right.
00:07:42 #202 Listen, Walter, please.
00:07:44 #203 The paper's gonna have to get along without me.
00:07:46 #204 So are you.
00:07:47 #205 Just didn't work out, Walter.
00:07:49 #206 Well, it would have worked out if you'd be satisfied with it.
00:07:52 #207 Just being editor and reporter, but not you.
00:07:54 #208 You had to marry me, spoil everything.
00:07:55 #209 I wasn't set.
00:07:57 #210 I suppose I proposed to you.
00:07:58 #211 Well, you practically did, making Google eyes of me for two years
00:08:01 #212 until I broke down on Walter.
00:08:03 #213 And I still claim I was tight the night I proposed to you.
00:08:05 #214 If you'd have been a gentleman, you'd have forgotten all about it,
00:08:07 #215 but not you.
00:08:08 #216 You're losing your eye. You used to be at a pitch better than that.
00:08:11 #217 Hello? Yeah? What?
00:08:13 #218 Sweeney? What can I do for you?
00:08:15 #219 What? Wait a minute. I'm not Sweeney. I'm Duffy.
00:08:18 #220 Listen, sweetie, you can't do that to me.
00:08:19 #221 Not a day of all days.
00:08:21 #222 What's the matter with you?
00:08:23 #223 Are you a loony?
00:08:24 #224 Jumping, gee-hoza-fat.
00:08:26 #225 Now, listen, sweetie, this is no time...
00:08:29 #226 Oh, all right, I suppose so.
00:08:31 #227 Yes, if you have to, you have to.
00:08:34 #228 He had to.
00:08:35 #229 How do you like that? Everything happens to me.
00:08:37 #230 365 days in a year, and this has to be the day.
00:08:40 #231 What's the matter, Walnut?
00:08:41 #232 Sweeney.
00:08:42 #233 Dead.
00:08:43 #234 He might just as well be the only man on the paper
00:08:44 #235 that can write me a picture today to have a baby.
00:08:46 #236 Well, he didn't do it on purpose, did he?
00:08:48 #237 I don't care what he did on our day.
00:08:49 #238 He's supposed to be coming to the old Williams case. And where is he?
00:08:51 #239 Walk it up and down in the hospital.
00:08:53 #240 Is there no sense of honor in this country?
00:08:55 #241 Well, haven't you got anybody else?
00:08:56 #242 No.
00:08:57 #243 No, there's nobody else on the paper that can write.
00:09:00 #244 This'll break me.
00:09:01 #245 Unless...
00:09:02 #246 Hilda. No.
00:09:04 #247 Hilda, you've got to come out. I don't bother. We'll get going.
00:09:07 #248 Get out of here. Duffy, I'm busy. No, I'm not. Please, save your friend.
00:09:09 #249 This'll bring us back together again.
00:09:11 #250 Just the way we used to be.
00:09:12 #251 That's just what I'm afraid of any time, any place, anywhere. Don't mock me.
00:09:14 #252 This is bigger than anything ever happened to us.
00:09:16 #253 Don't do it for me. Do it for the paper.
00:09:17 #254 Scram, Sven Galli.
00:09:18 #255 If you won't do it for love, how about money?
00:09:21 #256 Forget the other offer. I'll raise you 25 bucks a week.
00:09:22 #257 Just let me, you great big bumblehead man.
00:09:24 #258 I'll make you 75 bucks and not a cent more.
00:09:26 #259 Oh, are you gonna listen?
00:09:27 #260 Well, good grief, how much in that other paper gonna pay you?
00:09:29 #261 There isn't any other paper.
00:09:30 #262 Oh, well, in that case, I'll raise it off.
00:09:32 #263 You go back to your old salaryman, like, how do you like that?
00:09:34 #264 Trying to blackjack me?
00:09:34 #265 Hold on, I want to show you something.
00:09:35 #266 I'm busy. It's here. It's a ring.
00:09:36 #267 Take a good look at it. You know what it is?
00:09:38 #268 It's an engagement ring.
00:09:41 #269 I tried to tell you right away, but you would start reminiscing.
00:09:46 #270 I'm getting married, Walter, and I'm also getting as far away
00:09:48 #271 from the newspaper business as I can get.
00:09:51 #272 What?
00:09:53 #273 I am through.
00:09:54 #274 You're mad all you want, but you can't quit the newspaper business.
00:09:57 #275 No, I'm not.
00:09:58 #276 I know you're hilly. I know what quitting would mean to you. What would it mean?
00:10:01 #277 But kill you.
00:10:02 #278 You can't sell me that, Walter Burns.
00:10:04 #279 Who says I can't? You're a newspaper man.
00:10:05 #280 That's why I'm quitting.
00:10:07 #281 I want to go to a place where I can be a woman.
00:10:08 #282 You mean be a traitor?
00:10:09 #283 A traitor, a traitor to what?
00:10:11 #284 A traitor to journalism, you're a journalist, Hilday.
00:10:13 #285 A journalist?
00:10:14 #286 Now what does that mean?
00:10:15 #287 Peaking through keyholes, chasing up the fire engines,
00:10:18 #288 waking people up in the middle of the night
00:10:19 #289 to ask them if Hitler's gonna start another war,
00:10:21 #290 stealing pictures of old ladies,
00:10:23 #291 and all about reporters, Walter.
00:10:25 #292 A lot of dandy but inskeys running around
00:10:26 #293 without a nickel in their pockets,
00:10:27 #294 and for what, so a million hired girls,
00:10:29 #295 modelers wise will know what's going on?
00:10:30 #296 Why I...
00:10:32 #297 Oh, what's the use?
00:10:34 #298 Walter, you wouldn't know what it means to want to be respectable and live a halfway normal life.
00:10:42 #299 The point is, I'm through.
00:10:46 #300 Where'd you meet this man? Bermuda. Rich, huh?
00:10:51 #301 He's not what you call rich. Mixed by five thousand a year.
00:10:55 #302 What's his line?
00:10:56 #303 He's in the insurance business.
00:10:58 #304 Insurance business?
00:10:59 #305 Well, that's a good honest business, isn't it?
00:11:01 #306 Oh, certainly his honest. He's also adventurous. He's romantic.
00:11:04 #307 Listen, Hildy, I can't picture you being surrounded by policies.
00:11:07 #308 Policies are the right one.
00:11:08 #309 I can, I can, and I like it, what's more.
00:11:11 #310 Besides, he forgets the office when he's with me.
00:11:13 #311 He doesn't treat me like an errand boy either, Walter.
00:11:16 #312 He treats me like a woman.
00:11:17 #313 It does, does he? How did I treat you? Like a water buffalo?
00:11:20 #314 I don't know from water buffaloes, but I do know about him.
00:11:23 #315 He's kind and he's sweet and he's considerate.
00:11:26 #316 He wants a home and children.
00:11:28 #317 Sounds more like a guy I ought to marry. What's his name?
00:11:31 #318 Uh, Baldwin, Bruce. Baldwin.
00:11:33 #319 Bobbin, Bobbin, Bobbin. Oh, I knew a Bobbin once.
00:11:35 #320 A horse thief and Mrs. Sivvy couldn't be the same fella.
00:11:37 #321 You're now talking about the man I'm marrying tomorrow.
00:11:42 #322 Tomorrow? As soon as that?
00:11:49 #323 Well, at last I got out what I came up here to tell you.
00:11:54 #324 Guess there's any more to the story.
00:11:57 #325 That's so long, Walter.
00:11:59 #326 So long, Hilly.
00:12:00 #327 And better luck to you next time.
00:12:02 #328 Thanks.
00:12:04 #329 Oh, Hilly.
00:12:05 #330 Huh?
00:12:08 #331 Well, it is. Kinda took the wind out of my sail.
00:12:12 #332 Look, honey, I just wanna wish you everything I couldn't give you.
00:12:16 #333 Well, thank you, Walter.
00:12:18 #334 This other fellow, I...
00:12:20 #335 Well, I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to see him.
00:12:23 #336 I'm more or less particular about whom my wife marries.
00:12:26 #337 Where is he?
00:12:27 #338 Oh, he's right on the job waiting for me out there.
00:12:30 #339 Oh, do you mind if I meet him?
00:12:32 #340 Oh, no, Walter. It wouldn't do any good, really.
00:12:35 #341 Oh, now you're not afraid, are you?
00:12:36 #342 Afraid, of course not.
00:12:37 #343 Well then, come on, let's see this paragon.
00:12:40 #344 Is he as good as you say?
00:12:41 #345 Oh, he's better.
00:12:42 #346 What does he want with you?
00:12:43 #347 Oh, now you got me.
00:12:45 #348 Thank you, sir, Milford.
00:12:47 #349 Oh, I am sorry, Hilda.
00:12:49 #350 I suppose Bruce, what's his name?
00:12:50 #351 Bourbon.
00:12:51 #352 I suppose he opens doors for you. He does.
00:12:53 #353 And what is with the lady? He takes his hat off.
00:12:54 #354 Oh, I am sorry.
00:12:56 #355 Well, he walks with the lady.
00:12:57 #356 He waits for her.
00:12:58 #357 Oh, well, in that case.
00:13:02 #358 Allow me.
00:13:07 #359 Well, I can see right away my wife
00:13:09 #360 picked out the right husband for herself. How do you do, sir?
00:13:11 #361 Much me some mistake.
00:13:12 #362 I'm already married.
00:13:14 #363 Already married?
00:13:17 #364 Oh, you should have told Mr. Baldwin.
00:13:19 #365 Congratulations again, Mr. Baldwin.
00:13:21 #366 Oh, no, no, no. My name is...
00:13:22 #367 Excuse me, will you? I'm terribly busy.
00:13:23 #368 Just leave your card with the boy.
00:13:24 #369 What did you say, Mr. Baldwin?
00:13:25 #370 My name is...
00:13:27 #371 Some other time. I'm busy with Mr. Bruce Baldwin here.
00:13:29 #372 I didn't hear what you said.
00:13:30 #373 But I was going to say, he doesn't mind me.
00:13:32 #374 Now, look, what is it with you?
00:13:33 #375 Am I? Can't you see that...
00:13:35 #376 Oh, you're Bruce Baldwin. Yes.
00:13:37 #377 Well, who is he? Who are you?
00:13:39 #378 My name's Pete Davis.
00:13:40 #379 Well, Mr. Davis, is this any concern of yours? No.
00:13:43 #380 Well, from now on, I thank you to keep your nose out of my affairs.
00:13:46 #381 And don't let it happen again, that's all.
00:13:48 #382 Mr. Baldwin, I'm terribly sorry about this mistake.
00:13:50 #383 This is indeed a pleasure.
00:13:52 #384 Oh, that's wrong, isn't it?
00:13:54 #385 Well, Bruce, you see, I thought...
00:13:55 #386 You don't mind if I call you Bruce, do you?
00:13:56 #387 After all, we're practically related.
00:13:58 #388 Oh, not at all.
00:13:59 #389 You see, my wife, that is your wife, I mean Hilda.
00:14:02 #390 Oh, Hilda, you know, you let me to expect
00:14:04 #391 you were marrying a much older man.
00:14:05 #392 Oh, really? What did I say that let you expect this?
00:14:07 #393 Oh, don't worry about it.
00:14:08 #394 I realize you didn't mean old in years.
00:14:11 #395 Ha, ha.
00:14:13 #396 You always carry an umbrella, Bruce?
00:14:14 #397 Well, it looked a little cloudy this morning.
00:14:16 #398 That's right, Rubbers, too, I hope.
00:14:19 #399 And a boy, a man ought to be prepared for any emergency.
00:14:22 #400 Well, Walter, I think we better be running along.
00:14:23 #401 Yes, we better be going.
00:14:24 #402 Where are we going?
00:14:25 #403 I'm taking you two to lunch.
00:14:27 #404 Didn't you tell him, Hildy?
00:14:27 #405 No, she didn't.
00:14:28 #406 Well, I guess she just wanted to surprise you, Bruce.
00:14:31 #407 After you.
00:14:32 #408 After you, Hildy.
00:14:34 #409 Wasting your time, Walter, won't be a bit of good.
00:14:36 #410 No, no, I'm glad to do it.
00:14:37 #411 Glad to do it.
00:14:42 #412 Well, hello, Gus.
00:14:44 #413 Well, don't tell me it's you, Hildy.
00:14:45 #414 It's none other. How are things, Vin?
00:14:47 #415 I can't complain.
00:14:48 #416 I'm hungry. Get me a roast beef sandwich.
00:14:50 #417 Brer, on white bread.
00:14:52 #418 On white bread. It got over there.
00:14:54 #419 Are you Hildy?
00:14:55 #420 I'll have the same, I guess.
00:14:56 #421 Are you, sir? Yes, that's all right for me.
00:14:59 #422 Bring some mustard, too, Gus.
00:15:00 #423 Yes, sir.
00:15:02 #424 Well, well, well.
00:15:04 #425 So, you two are gonna get mad, huh?
00:15:07 #426 How's it feel, Bruce?
00:15:08 #427 Feels awful good.
00:15:09 #428 Yes, sir.
00:15:10 #429 You're getting a great little girl for yourself.
00:15:11 #430 I realize that.
00:15:13 #431 Things have been different for me ever since I met Hildy.
00:15:15 #432 I've never met anyone quite like her before.
00:15:18 #433 Everybody else I've ever known...
00:15:20 #434 Well, you could always tell ahead of time what they're gonna say or do.
00:15:24 #435 But Hildy's not like that.
00:15:26 #436 You can't tell that about her.
00:15:28 #437 That's nice.
00:15:29 #438 Yeah, it's well, you're getting something else too, Bruce.
00:15:31 #439 You're getting a great newspaper man.
00:15:32 #440 You know, orchid's Waldo.
00:15:34 #441 One of the best I ever knew.
00:15:35 #442 Sorry to see you go.
00:15:36 #443 Darn sorry, Hildy.
00:15:38 #444 I'd like to believe you meant that.
00:15:39 #445 I do mean it. Listen, if you ever want to come back to the newspaper business...
00:15:42 #446 Which I won't.
00:15:44 #447 Oh, well, in spite of everything, if I ever do this,
00:15:46 #448 there's only one man I'd work for.
00:15:48 #449 I bet your life I'd kill you if you ever work for anybody else.
00:15:50 #450 Now, you hear that, Bruce? That's my diploma.
00:15:52 #451 You must be quite a business of its...
00:15:54 #452 Hilly, are you sure you want to quit?
00:15:56 #453 Now, Bruce, what do you mean?
00:15:58 #454 Well, I mean, if there's any doubt about it, or if there's anything that...
00:16:01 #455 No. This is your chance to have a home and to be,
00:16:05 #456 like you said, a human being,
00:16:06 #457 and I'm gonna make you take that chance.
00:16:08 #458 Certainly. Why, I wouldn't let her stay.
00:16:11 #459 No. She deserves all this happiness, Bruce. All the things I couldn't give her.
00:16:15 #460 Yeah, all she ever wanted was a home.
00:16:17 #461 Well, I'll certainly try to give her one.
00:16:19 #462 I know you will, Bruce.
00:16:21 #463 Where you gonna live? Albany.
00:16:22 #464 Albany, huh? Got a family up there?
00:16:24 #465 Oh, just my mother. Just a mother?
00:16:26 #466 Oh, you're gonna live with your mother?
00:16:28 #467 Well, just for the first year.
00:16:30 #468 Oh, well, that will be nice.
00:16:32 #469 Yes, yes. A home with mother.
00:16:34 #470 In Albany, too.
00:16:36 #471 Mighty nice little town, Albany.
00:16:38 #472 They've got the state capital there, you know.
00:16:40 #473 Yeah, I know. Yeah, well, we were there once.
00:16:46 #474 Mr. Will you ever forget the night you brought the governor back to the hotel?
00:16:50 #475 You see, I was in taking a bath while I came walking. I went up.
00:16:56 #476 She didn't know I was in town.
00:16:58 #477 Well, Bruce, how is business out there? Any better?
00:17:02 #478 Well, Albany's a mighty good insurance town.
00:17:04 #479 Most people there take it out pretty early in life.
00:17:06 #480 Yeah, well, I could see why they would.
00:17:09 #481 Statistics show that most of our promises are...
00:17:10 #482 You know, Bruce, I've got a feeling I'll take not only insurance,
00:17:14 #483 Of course, that really doesn't matter now that Hildy and I have...
00:17:17 #484 Well, you know, we've...
00:17:19 #485 Does it? What does it? What do you think?
00:17:22 #486 Still, it might have been a good idea if we...
00:17:24 #487 If I had taken that little insurance.
00:17:25 #488 Well, I honestly feel that way.
00:17:27 #489 I figure I'm in one business that really helps people.
00:17:30 #490 Of course, we don't help you much while you're alive, but...
00:17:33 #491 Afterward. That's what counts.
00:17:34 #492 Sure.
00:17:36 #493 I don't get it.
00:17:39 #494 Nice going.
00:17:40 #495 I'm so sorry, Gus. My foot must have slipped.
00:17:42 #496 Oh, that's all right.
00:17:44 #497 What would you like to drink?
00:17:45 #498 Coffee, Gus.
00:17:46 #499 Shall I put some rum in the coffee? It's a nasty day. Sure.
00:17:49 #500 Oh, me too, Gus, please.
00:17:50 #501 And you, sir? Not for me, thanks.
00:17:51 #502 Go on, Bruce. Have a...
00:17:52 #503 No, I have a lot to do this afternoon.
00:17:54 #504 I have to buy the tickets and check the baggage.
00:17:56 #505 Well, do it tomorrow. There's plenty of time.
00:17:57 #506 But we're leaving today at four o'clock,
00:17:59 #507 taking the sleeper for Albany.
00:18:02 #508 Oh, you...
00:18:04 #509 You're leaving today at four o'clock, huh?
00:18:06 #510 So, yeah, that's only two hours.
00:18:08 #511 It doesn't give as much time as that.
00:18:09 #512 No, and I've got a lot to do.
00:18:10 #513 I ought to get something off of you. Look at that.
00:18:12 #514 I was in there all down over my front.
00:18:14 #515 Oh, that's nothing new here.
00:18:15 #516 Oh, never mind.
00:18:16 #517 Hey, Gus, Gus, do something about this.
00:18:19 #518 Call me to the telephone.
00:18:21 #519 It's soon as I get back to the table.
00:18:22 #520 Sure.
00:18:23 #521 Thanks, Gus. That's fine.
00:18:24 #522 Thanks, Juan.
00:18:26 #523 I'm terribly sorry about that.
00:18:27 #524 I'm so sorry about that.
00:18:28 #525 Listen, Bruce, I, uh...
00:18:30 #526 Let me get that straight.
00:18:31 #527 I must have misunderstood you.
00:18:32 #528 You mean you're taking a sleeper today
00:18:34 #529 and then getting married tomorrow?
00:18:36 #530 Oh, well, it's not like that.
00:18:38 #531 Well, what is it like?
00:18:39 #532 Oh, poor Walter.
00:18:40 #533 He'll toss and turn all night.
00:18:41 #534 Perhaps we'd better tell him mother's coming along too.
00:18:44 #535 Mother? Your mother kicked the bucket about...
00:18:46 #536 My mother, my mother.
00:18:47 #537 Oh, your mother? Oh, well, that relieves my mind.
00:18:50 #538 It was cruel of us to let you suffer that way.
00:18:52 #539 Isn't all the sweet always wanting to protect me?
00:18:54 #540 Well, I admit I wasn't much of a husband,
00:18:57 #541 but you can always count on me.
00:18:58 #542 I don't think she'll need you very much, Mr. Burns.
00:19:00 #543 I aim to do most of the protecting myself.
00:19:02 #544 Mr. Burns, telephone.
00:19:04 #545 For me? Yes, sir.
00:19:06 #546 Strange.
00:19:07 #547 Pardon me.
00:19:09 #548 You know, Hildy, he's not such a bad fellow.
00:19:13 #549 No. He should make some girl real happy. Mm-hmm.
00:19:17 #550 A lot happy.
00:19:18 #551 He's not the man for you, I can see that, but I sort of like him.
00:19:22 #552 He's got a lot of charm.
00:19:23 #553 Well, he comes by naturally.
00:19:24 #554 His grandfather was a snake.
00:19:27 #555 Hello? Hello?
00:19:28 #556 Hey, Duffy, listen.
00:19:30 #557 Is there any way we can stop the 4 o'clock train
00:19:31 #558 to Albany from leaving town?
00:19:33 #559 We might dynamite it. Could we?
00:19:35 #560 Maybe we couldn't.
00:19:38 #561 Oh, and I'll get this.
00:19:39 #562 Get hold of Sweeney and send him out of town
00:19:41 #563 on the two weeks vacation right away.
00:19:42 #564 All right, keep your shirt on.
00:19:44 #565 Hilda's coming back.
00:19:46 #566 She doesn't really get it, but I promise you she's staying here.
00:19:48 #567 And listen, tell Louis to stick around the office.
00:19:50 #568 I may need him. Goodbye.
00:19:52 #569 Thanks, good.
00:19:55 #570 No, this is bad business.
00:19:56 #571 What's the matter, Walter?
00:19:57 #572 Oh, the Earl Williams case.
00:19:59 #573 Oh, yes. I've been reading about that.
00:20:01 #574 It's pretty bad.
00:20:02 #575 What is the lowdown on it?
00:20:03 #576 Oh, simple, honey. Poor little dope who lost his job
00:20:05 #577 and went berserk and shot a cop
00:20:07 #578 and was coming after him to quiet him down.
00:20:09 #579 Now they're gonna hang him tomorrow.
00:20:10 #580 Oh, look, paper.
00:20:11 #581 You've been taking his side, haven't you?
00:20:13 #582 Well, if he was out of his mind when he did it, why doesn't the state just put him away?
00:20:17 #583 Because it happened to be a colored policeman. You know what that means, Hildy.
00:20:20 #584 The colored vote's very important in this town.
00:20:22 #585 Especially with an election coming up through your phone.
00:20:24 #586 That may have. He'd hang his own grandmother to be re-elected.
00:20:27 #587 I should think he could just show that the man wasn't responsible.
00:20:30 #588 That's not so easy.
00:20:31 #589 Maybe it isn't so hard, either.
00:20:33 #590 Why, what do you mean, Hildy?
00:20:35 #591 Don't they have to have another expert examine him before they hang him?
00:20:38 #592 Sure. A bird named Egglehoff is going to do it.
00:20:40 #593 He'll say the same as all the rest.
00:20:42 #594 Suppose he does.
00:20:44 #595 What's your scheme, Hildy?
00:20:45 #596 Look, Walter, you get the interview with Earl Williams.
00:20:48 #597 Print Agelhoffer's statement.
00:20:49 #598 And right alongside of it, you know, double column.
00:20:52 #599 Run your interview.
00:20:53 #600 Edina says he's sane.
00:20:55 #601 Interview shows he's goofy.
00:20:56 #602 Oh, Hildy, you can do it.
00:20:57 #603 You could save that poor devil's life.
00:20:59 #604 You could.
00:21:01 #605 You're going away, I forgot. That's right.
00:21:03 #606 How long would the interview take?
00:21:04 #607 Oh, by the hour for the interview, another hour to write it. That's about all.
00:21:07 #608 Hildy, we could take the six o'clock train
00:21:09 #609 if it'd save a man's life.
00:21:10 #610 No, Bruce.
00:21:12 #611 If you want to save Earl Williams' life, you write the interview yourself.
00:21:15 #612 You're still a good reporter.
00:21:16 #613 Oh, Hilda, you know I can't write that kind of thing.
00:21:18 #614 It takes a woman's touch and he's that hard...
00:21:19 #615 Now don't get poetic, Walter.
00:21:21 #616 Get Sweeney. He's the best man you've got on the paper for that solstice to stuff.
00:21:24 #617 Poor Sweeney.
00:21:25 #618 Duffy just told me his wife finally had twins.
00:21:28 #619 Isn't that terrible?
00:21:29 #620 Well, Sweeney went out to celebrate, and now we can't find him anymore.
00:21:32 #621 So, Sweeney has twins and Earl Williams gets hanged tomorrow.
00:21:34 #622 Now, Walter, look. It isn't his big relationship.
00:21:36 #623 Well, you argue with her. You argue with her.
00:21:37 #624 Otherwise, you're going on a honeymoon with blood on your hands.
00:21:40 #625 How can you have any happiness after that?
00:21:42 #626 All through the years, you'll remember that the man went to the gallows
00:21:45 #627 because she was too selfish to wait two hours.
00:21:47 #628 I tell you, Bruce Earl Williams' face
00:21:49 #629 had come between you on the train tonight
00:21:50 #630 and at the preaches tomorrow and all the rest of your lives.
00:21:52 #631 Stop, Mr. Hilda! Hope they'll see you. Stop what?
00:21:55 #632 What a man!
00:21:56 #633 I just remembered, Sweeney was only married four months ago.
00:22:04 #634 All right, Hilda, you wait. I'm late.
00:22:06 #635 Then Mrs. Sweeney didn't have twins.
00:22:09 #636 No, indeed. The twins were Walters, all his.
00:22:12 #637 Oh, it was nothing.
00:22:14 #638 Well, come on, let's forget it.
00:22:16 #639 Here, we'll start all over again.
00:22:17 #640 Now, I'll offer you two a business proposition.
00:22:19 #641 We're not interested. Well, you'll be interested. Now, you're a smart young man.
00:22:21 #642 Don't you see to it, Bruce. I know him of all.
00:22:23 #643 From way back, had he never... Excuse me.
00:22:24 #644 Well, you are talking to him.
00:22:26 #645 Now, look, Bruce, you persuade Hildy to do the story,
00:22:29 #646 and you can write out a nice, fat insurance policy for me. What do you say to that?
00:22:31 #647 Oh, no, no, no. Come on, Bruce.
00:22:33 #648 No, I wouldn't use my wife for business purposes.
00:22:35 #649 Wait a minute, Bruce.
00:22:36 #650 Walter, how big a policy?
00:22:38 #651 Oh, $25,000.
00:22:39 #652 $50,000?
00:22:40 #653 What's the commission on $100,000 policy?
00:22:41 #654 Around $1,000, but he'll...
00:22:43 #655 What's wrong with $1,000?
00:22:44 #656 Well, I couldn't...
00:22:45 #657 We could use that money, Bruce.
00:22:46 #658 How long would it take to get him examined?
00:22:48 #659 Well, I could get a company doctor here in 20 minutes.
00:22:50 #660 Well, I don't like it here.
00:22:51 #661 I don't like it here.
00:22:52 #662 All right, Bruce.
00:22:53 #663 Suppose you have Mr. Perrin's examined over in his office
00:22:56 #664 and see what they'll allow on that old caucus of his.
00:22:58 #665 If his...
00:22:59 #666 Hey, I'm better than I ever was.
00:23:01 #667 How do you like it?
00:23:02 #668 There's never anything to brag about.
00:23:03 #669 Now, look, Bruce, I'll go back and change in dress.
00:23:05 #670 And after you get the check, you phone me.
00:23:06 #671 I'll be in the press room at the criminal courts building.
00:23:09 #672 Walter.
00:23:10 #673 What?
00:23:11 #674 By the way, I think you better make that a certified check.
00:23:13 #675 What do you think I am, a crook?
00:23:14 #676 Yes. No certified check, no sorry. Get me?
00:23:16 #677 It'll be certified. Want my fingerprints?
00:23:18 #678 Well, thanks. I've still got those.
00:23:20 #679 Gus, how much do I owe you?
00:23:22 #680 Thank you, dear.
00:23:24 #681 Bruce.
00:23:25 #682 Yeah, oh, I'm sorry.
00:23:26 #683 That's all right. How much money do you got with you?
00:23:28 #684 You know everything we have. $500.
00:23:30 #685 Give me the five, Buck.
00:23:31 #686 But I have to buy the tickets.
00:23:32 #687 I'll buy the tickets.
00:23:33 #688 What I should be doing here.
00:23:34 #689 Believe me, dear, I know what I'm doing.
00:23:35 #690 He'll get you in a crappie or something.
00:23:36 #691 Really, I don't gamble.
00:23:37 #692 I know a lot of people that never did anything to limit water burns. Please, dear.
00:23:41 #693 It's everything we have in the world. I know.
00:23:44 #694 Oh, Bruce, you got changed at 10. I just...
00:23:47 #695 See what I mean, don't you, Bruce?
00:23:48 #696 I just gave everything I had to Hilly.
00:23:50 #697 All I've got left is... Oh, come on, Hilly.
00:23:52 #698 Not me. Sign it.
00:23:53 #699 Oh, all right.
00:23:57 #700 Fill the waiter.
00:23:59 #701 Come on, Bruce.
00:24:00 #702 Yeah.
00:24:04 #703 I'll open for a dime. I'm in. I'll stay. Right.
00:24:08 #704 Willcox, 3, 400. I'm in.
00:24:10 #705 Two.
00:24:12 #706 So you take that one of you birds.
00:24:13 #707 What are you ain't doing anything early?
00:24:14 #708 I'll take two.
00:24:15 #709 One's with the dealer.
00:24:16 #710 What's the matter with you guys?
00:24:17 #711 Crippled or something?
00:24:19 #712 No, just kept it from the sense. Press room? Huh?
00:24:22 #713 Wait a minute. Hello, Sarge. McHugh talking. Hold the line. What do you have?
00:24:25 #714 What? Hello.
00:24:27 #715 No, I told you this is the press room
00:24:28 #716 in the criminal courts building.
00:24:29 #717 Well, Jake, new lead on the hanging.
00:24:31 #718 This alieness from New York, Dr. Max J.
00:24:33 #719 Egelhofer.
00:24:36 #720 Yeah, he's going to interview William in about half
00:24:38 #721 an hour in the sheriff's office.
00:24:39 #722 That must be about the 10th alieness they put on,
00:24:41 #723 If he wasn't crazy before, he would be.
00:24:43 #724 By the time ten of those babies got through psychoanalyzing him.
00:24:45 #725 Give me the desk.
00:24:46 #726 Is this guy Agelhofer any good?
00:24:48 #727 Figure it out for yourself.
00:24:49 #728 He's the guy that sent to Washington to interview the brain trust.
00:24:52 #729 Fine.
00:24:53 #730 He said they were sane.
00:24:54 #731 Here's the situation on the eve of the hanging.
00:24:56 #732 I'll pick up a little fudge.
00:24:58 #733 This is Murphy.
00:24:59 #734 More slop on the hanging.
00:25:00 #735 A double guard has been thrown around the jail, municipal buildings, railroad terminals, and elevated stations
00:25:05 #736 to prepare for the expected general uprising of radicals at the hour of execution.
00:25:09 #737 The sheriff has just put 200 more relatives on the payroll
00:25:12 #738 to protect the city from the Red Army,
00:25:14 #739 which is leaving Moscow in a couple of minutes.
00:25:16 #740 Well, the real Red Menace shows up.
00:25:18 #741 Sheriff will still be crying wolf.
00:25:20 #742 What do you got? Is that good?
00:25:22 #743 Sure looks good from here.
00:25:24 #744 Well, hell, what did you get back?
00:25:26 #745 Hi, Ernie. Hi, Ernie. Glad to see you.
00:25:28 #746 Glad to see you, ma'am. Where'd you get the hat?
00:25:30 #747 I paid 12 bucks for that hat.
00:25:32 #748 It's just farewell appearance.
00:25:34 #749 I'm going into business for myself.
00:25:36 #750 What are you doing? I'm getting married tomorrow.
00:25:38 #751 Why, again? Are we invited to the wedding?
00:25:41 #752 Well, I might use you for a bridesmaid, Roy.
00:25:44 #753 How are you, Murphy?
00:25:45 #754 How are you getting married for, Hildy?
00:25:47 #755 None of your business.
00:25:49 #756 You ain't fooling us, are you, Hildy?
00:25:50 #757 Fooling it. Look what I've got in here.
00:25:52 #758 Three tickets to Albany on the six-clock train tonight.
00:25:55 #759 What do you mean, three?
00:25:56 #760 For me and my beau and the hats off, boys, his sweet darling mom.
00:26:00 #761 Oh, that's nice.
00:26:01 #762 What set of marriages is that?
00:26:02 #763 It's gonna be all right. I'm gonna settle down.
00:26:04 #764 I'm through with the newspaper business.
00:26:06 #765 Can you picture Hildy singing lullabies and hanging out diaries?
00:26:09 #766 Poppin' lies over the back fence.
00:26:11 #767 I'll take you back to zoo. She gets tired beating you rugs.
00:26:14 #768 I ain't gonna beat me rugs. I don't.
00:26:16 #769 There's Thaden Jackson, isn't it? Where that central school is.
00:26:19 #770 School this time of the day. While you care, you quit.
00:26:21 #771 He said you were thrilled.
00:26:23 #772 I just thought it might be a good fire, that's all.
00:26:26 #773 What's that?
00:26:27 #774 Just practicing for the Williams party in the morning.
00:26:30 #775 Gonna miss a nice hanging, Hildy.
00:26:31 #776 Not interested.
00:26:32 #777 Tell him to pipe down.
00:26:34 #778 Hey, keep quiet down there.
00:26:41 #779 I didn't expect this to get any work done.
00:26:43 #780 Oh, shut up!
00:26:45 #781 Very little respect for the press around here.
00:26:49 #782 Say, did anybody phone me?
00:26:50 #783 Nothing, I know.
00:26:51 #784 All right, General.
00:26:52 #785 Stay hilded as Walter know you're getting married.
00:26:54 #786 Just had lunch with him.
00:26:55 #787 Does he know you're quitting?
00:26:56 #788 Yes, I told him any more questions.
00:26:58 #789 Thank you, Reverend.
00:26:59 #790 Did he win hildy?
00:27:00 #791 I haven't got time.
00:27:01 #792 I have to do a yawn on Williams.
00:27:02 #793 Did he know what he was doing when he fired that gun?
00:27:05 #794 Well, if you ask us, no.
00:27:06 #795 If you ask the state alienates, the answer is yes. Yes.
00:27:09 #796 Who is he? What's he do?
00:27:10 #797 He's a bookkeeper.
00:27:11 #798 He starts in the $20 a week and after 14 years,
00:27:13 #799 he gradually works himself up to $17.50. Come on, come.
00:27:16 #800 No, McCluskey company goes out of business
00:27:17 #801 and Williams loses his job. Dime over. Can't get another.
00:27:20 #802 No, I'm in.
00:27:21 #803 I'm in.
00:27:23 #804 So he starts hanging around the park,
00:27:24 #805 listening to a lot of soapbox spellbinders,
00:27:26 #806 making phony speeches and begins believing.
00:27:28 #807 Then make some of his own.
00:27:30 #808 Up a dime.
00:27:31 #809 I'm in.
00:27:34 #810 Anything else, Doc?
00:27:35 #811 No, that'll be about all, Mr. Burns.
00:27:37 #812 Everything okay?
00:27:38 #813 You have nothing to worry about.
00:27:40 #814 Good, good.
00:27:41 #815 How are you doing, Bruce?
00:27:43 #816 There's just one more thing, Mr. Burns.
00:27:44 #817 Yes, Mr. Burns.
00:27:45 #818 Mr. Baldwin.
00:27:46 #819 All right, Doc.
00:27:47 #820 Thanks very much.
00:27:48 #821 Hey, Doc.
00:27:49 #822 What would you say?
00:27:49 #823 Who's the beneficiary?
00:27:50 #824 Excuse me, excuse me.
00:27:51 #825 Well, that is, in case of your death,
00:27:53 #826 who do we pay the money to?
00:27:54 #827 Why, Hildi, of course.
00:27:56 #828 Oh, I don't know.
00:27:58 #829 Let it make me feel pretty funny.
00:28:00 #830 Oh, now why shouldn't I make Hildi my whatever it was?
00:28:03 #831 You know, I feel I should take care of her.
00:28:05 #832 But you will take care of her, Bruce.
00:28:08 #833 If that doctor is right, I'm good for a long time, yeah?
00:28:11 #834 Look, Bruce, this is a debt of honor with me.
00:28:14 #835 I was a bad husband to Hilday.
00:28:17 #836 She could have cleaned a lot of aluminum if she wanted to,
00:28:19 #837 but she wouldn't take any.
00:28:21 #838 She had it coming to her, but she was too independent.
00:28:23 #839 Well, I'm independent too.
00:28:24 #840 No, you are, Bruce. I know you are.
00:28:26 #841 But look, now, you just figure it this way.
00:28:29 #842 I'm good for, well, we'll say at least 25 years, yeah?
00:28:33 #843 Well, by that time, you'll probably have made enough
00:28:34 #844 so that the money won't mean anything to you.
00:28:37 #845 But suppose you haven't made good, Bruce.
00:28:39 #846 What about Hilda's old age? Think of Hilda.
00:28:41 #847 Ah, I can see her now.
00:28:44 #848 Whitehead, lavender, and old lace.
00:28:47 #849 Can't you see her, Bruce?
00:28:49 #850 Yes, yes I can.
00:28:50 #851 She's old, isn't she?
00:28:52 #852 Now, Bruce, don't you think that Hilda's entitled
00:28:55 #853 to spend her last remaining years without worries of money?
00:28:59 #854 Of course you do, Bruce.
00:29:01 #855 Well, of course, if you put it that way.
00:29:03 #856 And remember, I love her too.
00:29:07 #857 Yes, I'm beginning to realize that.
00:29:10 #858 And the beauty of it is she'll never have to know until I've passed on.
00:29:15 #859 Oh, well, maybe she'll think kindly of me after I'm gone.
00:29:20 #860 I feel like a heel coming between you.
00:29:34 #861 No, no, Bruce, you didn't come between us.
00:29:37 #862 It was all over for her before you came on the scene. For me?
00:29:40 #863 Hey, Walter.
00:29:41 #864 It'll never be. What do you want?
00:29:43 #865 Can I see you a minute, please?
00:29:45 #866 Excuse me, Bruce.
00:29:50 #867 You got it? You got it?
00:29:51 #868 Where is it? Come on.
00:29:53 #869 Certified?
00:29:54 #870 Sure. I've got the book water. That's for $2,500.
00:29:59 #871 Well, Bruce, here we are, certified in everything.
00:30:01 #872 Certified.
00:30:03 #873 Gosh.
00:30:04 #874 I'm afraid he'll feel ashamed to think she hasn't trusted you.
00:30:08 #875 But she'll know someday.
00:30:09 #876 Oh, yeah.
00:30:10 #877 Oh, Bruce, you promised to phone her as soon as you got the check.
00:30:13 #878 Oh, yes, yes, of course.
00:30:15 #879 Get me Hilda Johnson, press room, criminal courts building.
00:30:18 #880 Sit down, Bruce. The operator will get it for you.
00:30:20 #881 Thank you. Excuse me, will you?
00:30:23 #882 Yes.
00:30:25 #883 Hello.
00:30:26 #884 Yes, I'll wait. Thank you.
00:30:30 #885 Start hollering.
00:30:31 #886 Here you go.
00:30:33 #887 Thank you.
00:30:35 #888 Dr. Johnson speaking.
00:30:36 #889 Oh, hello, Bruce. I got a dime. Well, what about me?
00:30:39 #890 We've been playing for an hour. You're not drinking any water.
00:30:40 #891 Will you?
00:30:42 #892 Hello, Bruce.
00:30:44 #893 Did you get the check?
00:30:45 #894 Is it certified?
00:30:46 #895 Certified and everything.
00:30:48 #896 I would write my pocket.
00:30:49 #897 In your pocket, that's fine.
00:30:51 #898 Wait a minute. Maybe it isn't so fine.
00:30:53 #899 Bruce, where are you?
00:30:54 #900 I'm in Mr. Burns' office.
00:30:55 #901 See there?
00:30:57 #902 Well, now, look, Bruce, I don't want you to carry that check
00:31:00 #903 around in your pocket.
00:31:01 #904 Well, because...
00:31:03 #905 Yes, yes, I know all that, but, uh, Bruce, uh,
00:31:07 #906 there's an old newspaper superstition
00:31:09 #907 that the first big check you get,
00:31:10 #908 you put in the, uh, lining of your hat.
00:31:13 #909 In your hat.
00:31:15 #910 It brings good luck.
00:31:16 #911 I've been a reporter for 20 years,
00:31:17 #912 I never heard that before.
00:31:18 #913 Yeah, I know it sounds silly, dear,
00:31:20 #914 but do it for me, please. Hold on for a minute.
00:31:21 #915 Yes, yes, right now.
00:31:23 #916 All right, just a minute.
00:31:24 #917 Yeah, all right, I've done it.
00:31:36 #918 Anything else?
00:31:38 #919 Oh, yes.
00:31:39 #920 All right.
00:31:42 #921 Uh-huh.
00:31:43 #922 Yes. Yes, I'll tell him.
00:31:45 #923 Goodbye.
00:31:46 #924 Well, everything all right, Bruce? Oh, yes.
00:31:48 #925 He'll be said to tell you she'll get right to work. Fine.
00:31:50 #926 Well, I must be going now. All right.
00:31:52 #927 Oh, Bruce, you don't want to forget this. My reign is over.
00:31:54 #928 Oh, thanks.
00:31:55 #929 Oh, you don't mind if I don't show you our deal?
00:31:57 #930 Oh, no, no, no. I have a lot to do now.
00:31:58 #931 Well, thanks for everything. Excuse me, what do you say?
00:32:00 #932 I said thanks for everything.
00:32:02 #933 Nonsense, don't thank me. I should thank you.
00:32:05 #934 So long. So long.
00:32:20 #935 Hello, Cooley.
00:32:22 #936 Hello, Hillie, what are you doing around here?
00:32:23 #937 I want to interview with Earl Williams.
00:32:25 #938 How about a little service?
00:32:25 #939 No more interviews.
00:32:26 #940 Why not?
00:32:27 #941 Sheriff's orders. Besides doctors coming over. Can't do it.
00:32:30 #942 Oh. Say, is this your money?
00:32:32 #943 Why, I don't think it is. Twenty bucks.
00:32:34 #944 Yeah, I guess maybe.
00:32:35 #945 That's what I thought. Come on, let me know. Hurry.
00:32:36 #946 Hey, Joe, open up here. Now, Hillie, don't...
00:32:39 #947 I'll open up.
00:32:46 #948 Hello, Earl.
00:32:47 #949 Hello.
00:32:48 #950 My name's Johnson.
00:32:49 #951 Mind if I talk to you for a few minutes?
00:32:51 #952 No, I haven't anything else to do.
00:32:53 #953 OK, say it right.
00:32:59 #954 So you see, I couldn't plead insanity because I'm
00:33:01 #955 just as sane as anybody else.
00:33:02 #956 You didn't mean to kill that policeman, huh?
00:33:04 #957 Well, of course not.
00:33:05 #958 It's against everything I've ever stood for.
00:33:07 #959 They know it was an accident.
00:33:09 #960 I'm not guilty.
00:33:10 #961 It's just the world.
00:33:14 #962 See what you mean?
00:33:15 #963 Sorry about the lipstick, girl.
00:33:17 #964 Now look, after you lost your job, what did you do?
00:33:20 #965 I tried to find another job.
00:33:22 #966 I mean, how did you spend your time?
00:33:24 #967 Oh, I used to sit around the park any place.
00:33:27 #968 Oh, I don't smoke.
00:33:28 #969 When you were in the park, did you hear any of those speeches?
00:33:31 #970 You mean as well as talk too much? Yeah.
00:33:35 #971 Well, I didn't pay any attention.
00:33:36 #972 You see, I was thinking.
00:33:37 #973 Did you hear anything they said?
00:33:38 #974 Yes.
00:33:39 #975 Well, is there anything you remember,
00:33:41 #976 anything in particular?
00:33:42 #977 Well, there was one fellow. He, yeah.
00:33:44 #978 What did he talk about?
00:33:45 #979 He talked about production for use.
00:33:47 #980 Production for use?
00:33:48 #981 Yes, he said everything should be made use of.
00:33:52 #982 That makes quite a bit of sense, doesn't it?
00:33:53 #983 Yes, I like him.
00:33:54 #984 He was a good speaker.
00:33:56 #985 When you found yourself with that gun in your hand
00:33:59 #986 and that policeman coming at you, what did you think about it? I don't know exactly.
00:34:03 #987 You just thought of something? Well.
00:34:04 #988 Could it have been production for use?
00:34:06 #989 I don't know. I.
00:34:08 #990 What's a gun for, Earl? A gun?
00:34:11 #991 Hmm. Why?
00:34:12 #992 To shoot, of course.
00:34:14 #993 Oh.
00:34:15 #994 Maybe that's why he used it. Maybe.
00:34:17 #995 Seems reasonable.
00:34:18 #996 Yes, yes it is.
00:34:20 #997 You see, I've never had a gun on my hand before.
00:34:23 #998 And that's what a gun's for, isn't it?
00:34:25 #999 Maybe that's why. Sure it is.
00:34:27 #1000 Yes, that's what I thought of.
00:34:29 #1001 Production for use.
00:34:30 #1002 It's simple, isn't it? Very simple.
00:34:33 #1003 There's nothing crazy about that, is there?
00:34:35 #1004 No, nothing at all.
00:34:36 #1005 You'll write about that in your paper, won't you?
00:34:37 #1006 I will.
00:34:38 #1007 Who sent you the roses?
00:34:40 #1008 Miss Molly Molloy.
00:34:41 #1009 She's a wonderful person.
00:34:42 #1010 Very pretty.
00:34:43 #1011 Yes.
00:34:44 #1012 She's beautiful, isn't she?
00:34:45 #1013 Pines are pilled in.
00:34:46 #1014 All right.
00:34:49 #1015 I guess that's all.
00:34:50 #1016 I like talking to you.
00:34:52 #1017 Goodbye, Miss Johnson.
00:34:55 #1018 Goodbye, Earl.
00:34:57 #1019 Good luck.
00:35:01 #1020 Three landlady's boys.
00:35:02 #1021 They got well, didn't they?
00:35:03 #1022 Right up.
00:35:04 #1023 I wonder what the post's going to do without Hildy.
00:35:06 #1024 Yeah, he's supposed to wallow Brunslow to let her go.
00:35:08 #1025 No, no.
00:35:09 #1026 Remember what he did to Bill Fenton when he wanted to go
00:35:10 #1027 to Hollywood, had him thrown in jail for arson? Lord's jury.
00:35:13 #1028 Was that it?
00:35:14 #1029 Yeah. Give me some change.
00:35:15 #1030 Hey, Mac.
00:35:17 #1031 Are you stairway Sam?
00:35:18 #1032 Huh?
00:35:19 #1033 Would you mind turning on some lights?
00:35:21 #1034 Sure.
00:35:22 #1035 You can't see anything in this place.
00:35:23 #1036 Hey, who's this guy?
00:35:24 #1037 He'll be going to marry.
00:35:25 #1038 I don't know, Bruce Sampson.
00:35:27 #1039 I'll give the marriage six months.
00:35:28 #1040 Why?
00:35:29 #1041 Because you won't be able to stay waiting
00:35:30 #1042 the paper any longer than that.
00:35:32 #1043 Did you see it when that bell went off? Not that.
00:35:34 #1044 It must be pretty nice to be able to walk out of a place
00:35:37 #1045 and quit.
00:35:38 #1046 Well, that.
00:35:38 #1047 Yeah, I had a publicity job offered to me last year.
00:35:40 #1048 Should have taken it.
00:35:42 #1049 So what I'd like, a job on the side.
00:35:44 #1050 Desk and a stenographer.
00:35:45 #1051 I wouldn't mind a nice big blonde with big brown eyes.
00:35:49 #1052 I'll bet you're 10 to one.
00:35:50 #1053 I don't know, in the last six months.
00:35:52 #1054 She's just like us, and we wouldn't be sticking around waiting for that guy to come.
00:35:55 #1055 Well, well, Miss Molly Malloy.
00:35:57 #1056 Hello, Molly.
00:35:58 #1057 Hi, Molly. How's tricks?
00:35:59 #1058 I've been looking for you, Tramps.
00:36:00 #1059 Come to bed. Call on William.
00:36:02 #1060 He's right across the court.
00:36:03 #1061 You're a better hurry up.
00:36:04 #1062 Nice bunch of roses you sent to her.
00:36:05 #1063 Oh, what do you want done with them tomorrow morning?
00:36:07 #1064 A lot of wise guys, ain't you?
00:36:09 #1065 You're breaking up the game, Molly.
00:36:10 #1066 What do you want?
00:36:11 #1067 I came to tell you what I think of you. Paulia.
00:36:16 #1068 Keep your shirt on.
00:36:18 #1069 If you was worth breaking my nails on,
00:36:19 #1070 I'd tell you face wide open.
00:36:21 #1071 What do you swore about? Sweetheart was about a swell story we gave you?
00:36:23 #1072 Yeah, what do you want?
00:36:25 #1073 Crimes have been making a fool out of me long enough.
00:36:28 #1074 I never said I loved Earl Williams and was willing to marry him on the gallows.
00:36:32 #1075 He made that up.
00:36:33 #1076 And about my being a soulmate and having a loveless with him.
00:36:36 #1077 What did you do?
00:36:37 #1078 You haven't sticking around that cuckoo ever since they threw him in the death house?
00:36:39 #1079 That's a lie.
00:36:40 #1080 Everybody knows you're a girlfriend.
00:36:42 #1081 I met Mr. Williams just once in my life.
00:36:45 #1082 How many? Two.
00:36:45 #1083 When he was wandering around in the rain without his hat and coat on,
00:36:48 #1084 like a sick dog the day before the shooting.
00:36:50 #1085 I went up to him like any human being would.
00:36:53 #1086 And I asked him what was the matter.
00:36:55 #1087 And he told me about being fired after being on the same job for 14 years.
00:36:59 #1088 Who? That 20 cents.
00:37:01 #1089 And I brought him up to my room because it was warm there.
00:37:03 #1090 I'll put it on a phonograph.
00:37:05 #1091 Oh, listen to me, please.
00:37:08 #1092 I tell you, he just sat there talking to me all night.
00:37:12 #1093 He never once laid a hand on me.
00:37:14 #1094 And in the morning he went away.
00:37:16 #1095 And I never saw him again till that day of the trial.
00:37:19 #1096 Sure I was his witness.
00:37:21 #1097 And what a witness.
00:37:23 #1098 That's why you're persecuting me.
00:37:24 #1099 Because the real Williams treated me decent and not like an animal.
00:37:27 #1100 All right, your dances in the press room were busy.
00:37:29 #1101 Why don't you go see your boyfriend?
00:37:31 #1102 Yeah, he got a nice room.
00:37:32 #1103 You won't have it long. He left a call for 7 a.m.
00:37:34 #1104 Oh! It's a wonderful alight, and don't have doubt.
00:37:37 #1105 It's striking all the sense.
00:37:50 #1106 What's that?
00:37:51 #1107 They're fixing up a pain in the neck for your boyfriend.
00:37:53 #1108 Oh! Shame on you. Shame on you.
00:37:57 #1109 The fella that never met nobody, no harm.
00:38:02 #1110 Sitting there this minute with the angel at death beside him and you crackin' jokes.
00:38:06 #1111 All right, now kids, you're gonna get out of here. Now come on.
00:38:07 #1112 Now, come on.
00:38:08 #1113 Come on, Molly. Come on, Molly. Let's get out of here.
00:38:10 #1114 Oh, they're human.
00:38:11 #1115 I know they're newspaper men.
00:38:12 #1116 All they've been doing is lying.
00:38:14 #1117 All they've been doing is writing lies.
00:38:16 #1118 Why won't they listen to me?
00:38:20 #1119 Hello?
00:38:41 #1120 Hilda Johnson?
00:38:42 #1121 Hang on, and she'll be back in a minute.
00:38:48 #1122 You guys want to find him more courts?
00:38:50 #1123 That's the use. I can't win anyway.
00:38:53 #1124 Gentlemen of the press.
00:39:13 #1125 Hillney.
00:39:14 #1126 Phone for you.
00:39:18 #1127 Hello.
00:39:19 #1128 Oh, hello, Bruce.
00:39:22 #1129 Well?
00:39:23 #1130 Where are you?
00:39:25 #1131 You're where?
00:39:27 #1132 Well, how did that happen?
00:39:29 #1133 Never mind, never mind. I'll be right down.
00:39:31 #1134 Hiya, Sheriff. How you doing?
00:39:39 #1135 Ow! My chin! My back!
00:39:41 #1136 What's going on around here?
00:39:43 #1137 Bruce was in trouble.
00:39:44 #1138 Lioness flushes to defend Cobb.
00:39:46 #1139 Man forgets hanky, mama goes to wipe nose.
00:39:48 #1140 I still give out marriage six months.
00:39:50 #1141 I don't know what you fellas are talking about.
00:39:52 #1142 What do you want, Pete?
00:39:54 #1143 Oh, uh, I've got the tickets for the hanging here, boys.
00:39:57 #1144 Pete, Pete, why can't you hang this guy at five o'clock
00:40:02 #1145 instead of seven?
00:40:03 #1146 Sure, it won't hurt you, and we can make the city addition.
00:40:05 #1147 Oh, well, now, that's kind of raw, Roy.
00:40:07 #1148 After all, I can't hang a man in his sleep
00:40:09 #1149 just to please the newspaper.
00:40:10 #1150 No, but you can reprieve him twice
00:40:12 #1151 so the hanging's three days before election, can't you?
00:40:14 #1152 You can run on a lawn or take a ticket.
00:40:15 #1153 You can do that, all right.
00:40:16 #1154 Honest, boys, I had absolutely nothing to do with those reprieves.
00:40:19 #1155 How do we know there won't be another reprieve tonight?
00:40:21 #1156 What if this eagle overfines a Williams insane?
00:40:24 #1157 He won't find him insane because he isn't.
00:40:26 #1158 He's just as sane as I am.
00:40:27 #1159 Sane, huh?
00:40:29 #1160 Oh, now be serious.
00:40:30 #1161 Boys, after all, this is a hanging,
00:40:32 #1162 and it's going to go according to schedule.
00:40:34 #1163 Seven o'clock in the morning and not a minute earlier.
00:40:36 #1164 After all, there's such a thing as being a man, you know?
00:40:39 #1165 All right, Pinky, where do you want a favor?
00:40:41 #1166 And please don't call me Pinky.
00:40:43 #1167 Why not?
00:40:44 #1168 because I got a name, C, and it's Peter B. Hartwell. What's a B for?
00:40:47 #1169 Bull.
00:40:49 #1170 But I'm innocent.
00:40:50 #1171 I didn't do anything.
00:40:51 #1172 I never stole a watch in my life.
00:40:53 #1173 No, you didn't, Bruce.
00:40:54 #1174 I know you didn't. All right, Mike. Come on, let him out. I can't, Hildy.
00:40:56 #1175 He's accused of stealing a watch,
00:40:57 #1176 and they found the watch on him.
00:40:58 #1177 But I never stole it.
00:40:59 #1178 Please, Bruce.
00:41:00 #1179 And who accused him?
00:41:01 #1180 Diamond Louis, the biggest crook in town.
00:41:02 #1181 I know it's all good, Hildy. Now, don't, Hildy, me.
00:41:04 #1182 You're going to let him out or aren't you? No. I never stole it.
00:41:06 #1183 All right, Bruce, please.
00:41:07 #1184 All right, you're not.
00:41:08 #1185 Well, perhaps you better read the post in the morning.
00:41:10 #1186 I can't imagine who'd do a thing like that to me.
00:41:13 #1187 I can't think of any enemies I have.
00:41:14 #1188 I'm sure you haven't any, but...
00:41:16 #1189 Have you got the check?
00:41:17 #1190 Oh yes, I have it right here.
00:41:19 #1191 That's a funny superstition you newspaper people have.
00:41:22 #1192 This isn't as...
00:41:24 #1193 About being arrested at first, I thought maybe Walter Burns might have something to do with it,
00:41:28 #1194 but then of course I realized he couldn't have. Why?
00:41:32 #1195 Well, he's a very nice fellow, Hildy. Oh.
00:41:34 #1196 Oh yes, I found that out.
00:41:36 #1197 What's the matter?
00:41:37 #1198 I've lost my wallet.
00:41:39 #1199 Yes. Well, Bruce, never mind. I have the money.
00:41:42 #1200 You better give me the check, too.
00:41:44 #1201 And that picture of us in Bermuda?
00:41:46 #1202 Don't bother, Bruce.
00:41:46 #1203 You'll find lots of things, Miss.
00:41:51 #1204 No, Bruce, do you wait here?
00:41:53 #1205 I'm not taking any more chances.
00:41:54 #1206 I'll be down in three minutes.
00:41:55 #1207 We're taking the next train.
00:41:59 #1208 And so into this little tortured mine
00:42:01 #1209 came the idea that that gun had been produced for use
00:42:05 #1210 and use it he did.
00:42:07 #1211 But the state has a production for use plan, too.
00:42:10 #1212 It has a gallows.
00:42:11 #1213 And at 7 a.m. unless a miracle occurs,
00:42:13 #1214 that gallows will be used to separate the soul
00:42:15 #1215 of Earl Williams from his body.
00:42:18 #1216 And out of Molly Malloy's life will go the one
00:42:20 #1217 kindly soul she ever knew.
00:42:23 #1218 That's as far as she got.
00:42:26 #1219 But I ask you guys, can that girl write an interview?
00:42:28 #1220 She'll do it when somebody else comes along.
00:42:30 #1221 That'll seem very ethical reading other people's stuff.
00:42:32 #1222 Where do you get that ethics stuff?
00:42:34 #1223 You're the only one who'll swipe any of it.
00:42:36 #1224 I still say that anybody that can write like that
00:42:38 #1225 ain't going to give it up permanently.
00:42:39 #1226 I'm going to do the sew socks for the guy in the insurance business.
00:42:42 #1227 Now I give that marriage three months and I'm laying three to one.
00:42:45 #1228 Any takers?
00:42:46 #1229 I'll take that bet.
00:42:47 #1230 Hey, it's getting so good I can't leave the room without being discussed by a bunch of old ladies.
00:42:50 #1231 Hello, Post.
00:42:51 #1232 Hey, give me Walden prints, will you please?
00:42:53 #1233 Oh, I don't get sore, Ellie.
00:42:55 #1234 We were only saying a swell reporter like you wouldn't quit so easy.
00:42:58 #1235 This is Ellie Johnson.
00:42:59 #1236 Oh, I can quit all right without a single quiver.
00:43:02 #1237 I'm going to live like a human being, not like you chumps.
00:43:04 #1238 Is that you, Walder?
00:43:05 #1239 Oh, I've got some news for you.
00:43:07 #1240 Yes, yes, I got the interview all right, but I've got some more important news.
00:43:10 #1241 Perhaps you better get a pencil and take it down.
00:43:12 #1242 All ready?
00:43:14 #1243 Now get this, you double-crossing chimpanzee.
00:43:17 #1244 There ain't gonna be any interview and there ain't gonna be any story.
00:43:19 #1245 And that certify check of yours is leaving with me in 20 minutes.
00:43:21 #1246 I wouldn't cover the burning of Rome for you if they were just lighting it up.
00:43:24 #1247 And if I overlay my two eyes on you again, I'm gonna walk right up to you
00:43:26 #1248 and hammer on that monkey skull of yours till it rings like a Chinese gong.
00:43:29 #1249 Oh, so you don't know why I'm angry with you?
00:43:31 #1250 Well, perhaps you better get Louis to tell you the story of his watch.
00:43:33 #1251 And there's just one other little thing I want you to listen to.
00:43:40 #1252 Did you hear that?
00:43:41 #1253 That's the story I just wrote.
00:43:43 #1254 Yes, yes, I know we had a bargain.
00:43:44 #1255 I just said I'd write it.
00:43:45 #1256 I wouldn't tear it up.
00:43:47 #1257 It's all in little pieces now, Alder.
00:43:48 #1258 And I hope to do the same for you someday.
00:43:51 #1259 And that, my friends, is my farewell to the newspaper game.
00:43:53 #1260 I'm going to be a woman, not a news-getting machine.
00:43:55 #1261 I'm going to have babies and take care of them
00:43:57 #1262 and give them cod liver oil and watch their teeth grow.
00:43:59 #1263 And oh, dear, if I ever see one of them
00:44:01 #1264 look at a newspaper again, I'm going to brain them.
00:44:02 #1265 Where's my hat?
00:44:04 #1266 Hello.
00:44:05 #1267 Oh, Mr. Burns?
00:44:06 #1268 Yes, she's still here.
00:44:10 #1269 And another thing I want to... Oh, here he is, my... Oh, there it is.
00:44:16 #1270 Hello, Doctor. Sorry to be late.
00:44:18 #1271 Oh, that's quite all right.
00:44:19 #1272 These boys from the newspapers, they take up so much of my time.
00:44:21 #1273 They wanted me to hang Williams at their convenience.
00:44:24 #1274 Oh, hello.
00:44:25 #1275 These newspapers, what they did to me in Chicago...
00:44:27 #1276 I'm quite relieved.
00:44:28 #1277 Always after me for interviews. Yes, me too.
00:44:30 #1278 Of course, I did rather promise to make them some sort of statement
00:44:33 #1279 when I finished here. You don't mind, do you?
00:44:34 #1280 Well, that's hardly ethical, Doctor.
00:44:36 #1281 You see, all statements are supposed to come from me.
00:44:38 #1282 Well, what do you say to give them some sort of joint interview?
00:44:41 #1283 I can discuss some of the psychological aspects of the case.
00:44:44 #1284 You mean we'd have our pictures taken together?
00:44:46 #1285 Yes, shaking hands.
00:44:47 #1286 Oh, splendid idea.
00:44:48 #1287 Of course, I don't think a very good picture.
00:44:50 #1288 No, that doesn't matter, Doctor.
00:44:51 #1289 The publicity's the main thing.
00:44:52 #1290 Doctor, I'm getting awful tired.
00:44:55 #1291 Can I go back to jail again?
00:44:57 #1292 Oh, I'm awfully sorry.
00:44:58 #1293 I forgot you were there.
00:44:59 #1294 No, Mr. Williams, we've seen further questions for you.
00:45:01 #1295 Sheriff, do you mind extinguishing the lights, please?
00:45:02 #1296 Of course, Doctor.
00:45:03 #1297 I'll have to help you a lot more than we have to do over here.
00:45:05 #1298 Now, let me see.
00:45:09 #1299 Mr. Williams, you know, of course,
00:45:11 #1300 that you're going to be executed.
00:45:12 #1301 Now, who do you feel is responsible for that?
00:45:15 #1302 I'm innocent.
00:45:17 #1303 It wasn't my fault.
00:45:18 #1304 Send us a postcard. I'll do. Goodbye, Hilly. All right, all right. So long, Jonson.
00:45:21 #1305 I'll see you again, Jonson.
00:45:22 #1306 Next time you see me, I should be writing in a Rolls-Royce,
00:45:25 #1307 giving interviews on success. Come on.
00:45:27 #1308 So long, you waved slaves.
00:45:28 #1309 Bye.
00:45:29 #1310 Oh, and you're crawling a fire escape
00:45:31 #1311 and getting kicked out of front doors,
00:45:32 #1312 needing Christmas dinners and one-armed joints.
00:45:34 #1313 Don't forget your pal, Hilly Johnson. Where are you?
00:45:36 #1314 And when the road beyond unfolds and the roof...
00:45:39 #1315 What's the matter? What happened?
00:45:47 #1316 Hey, watch where you're aiming, will ya?
00:45:51 #1317 Away! Who was it?
00:45:52 #1318 Well, will ya!
00:45:53 #1319 Wait, wait, wait!
00:45:54 #1320 Hello, hello, hello. Hurry up, hurry up. This important.
00:45:55 #1321 Give me the bag.
00:45:56 #1322 Blank, Earl Williams just escaped.
00:46:00 #1323 Dale Brank, I don't know yet.
00:46:01 #1324 Call you back.
00:46:02 #1325 Williams took a powder.
00:46:03 #1326 I know of the wall.
00:46:04 #1327 I don't know anything yet.
00:46:05 #1328 Call you back.
00:46:06 #1329 Well, post-skepting Walter Burns.
00:46:07 #1330 Quick, it's Hilly Johnson.
00:46:08 #1331 Walter, Hilly.
00:46:09 #1332 Earl Williams just escaped from the county jail.
00:46:10 #1333 You all?
00:46:11 #1334 I don't know.
00:46:12 #1335 I don't know anything yet.
00:46:20 #1336 Walter Hilli.
00:46:24 #1337 We'll just escape from the county jail.
00:46:26 #1338 Yeah? Yeah? Yeah?
00:46:27 #1339 Don't worry, I'm on the job.
00:46:29 #1340 Give me rewrite.
00:47:25 #1341 He ain't here.
00:47:27 #1342 Hello, Gil. Here's the situation now.
00:47:29 #1343 You ready?
00:47:31 #1344 Williams was taken over to the Sheriff's Private Office
00:47:32 #1345 to be examined by this Professor, Agelhofer.
00:47:34 #1346 And in a few minutes, he shot his way out.
00:47:36 #1347 No, nobody knows where he got the gun.
00:47:38 #1348 He went upstairs with the infirmary and gutter
00:47:40 #1349 through the skylight.
00:47:41 #1350 He must have slid down the rain pipe to the street.
00:47:43 #1351 No, nobody knows where he got it.
00:47:44 #1352 What they do, they won't talk.
00:47:45 #1353 How else we can't give me the desk?
00:47:46 #1354 Crime Commission offers $10,000 reward for William...
00:47:48 #1355 Market talking? No clue yet as to William's whereabouts.
00:47:50 #1356 No, no. Here's a little feature, though.
00:47:52 #1357 There's been an accident about a tear bomb.
00:47:54 #1358 Yeah, tear bomb, tear bomb.
00:47:56 #1359 Criminals cry for it.
00:47:57 #1360 I don't know.
00:47:58 #1361 This tear bomb went off unexpectedly in the hands of Sheriff Hartwell's bombing squad.
00:48:01 #1362 What went off?
00:48:02 #1363 The following deputies will rush to the hospital.
00:48:04 #1364 Fine friend, you.
00:48:05 #1365 Their names are...
00:48:06 #1366 Mervin D. Wilkerson, the mayor's brother-in-law.
00:48:08 #1367 After all, I've done for you.
00:48:09 #1368 Howard Schuster, the Sheriff's uncle on his mother's side.
00:48:12 #1369 Hello, Jim.
00:48:13 #1370 Satellites on Sheriff Hartwell's manhunt.
00:48:14 #1371 William Mansfield, the sheriff's landlord, and Lester Winthrop,
00:48:17 #1372 who married the sheriff's niece.
00:48:18 #1373 You'll remember the very homely day.
00:48:19 #1374 Oh, are you ready?
00:48:20 #1375 This is William Rise, age 55, scrub lady,
00:48:22 #1376 while scrubbing the eighth floor of the commerce building
00:48:24 #1377 was shot in the left leg by one of Sheriff Hartwell's deputies.
00:48:26 #1378 Look, I'm...
00:48:28 #1379 There goes another scrub lady.
00:48:29 #1380 I was only a flesh woman. They took her to the hospital.
00:48:31 #1381 Call you back.
00:48:32 #1382 McHugh speaking. Give me the desk.
00:48:33 #1383 Hey, Mac.
00:48:34 #1384 And you'd open how he escaped?
00:48:35 #1385 Maybe the sheriff let him out so Williams could vote for him.
00:48:37 #1386 Oh, man-answering description of Earl Williams
00:48:39 #1387 was seen boarding a southbound...
00:48:40 #1388 Call you back.
00:48:41 #1389 I thought so too.
00:48:42 #1390 Get them all to Brands quick.
00:48:44 #1391 Walter, Walter, listen.
00:48:46 #1392 I've got the whole story on how William's got that gun
00:48:48 #1393 escaped and I got it exclusive.
00:48:53 #1394 Yeah, yeah, that's right, and it's a pip.
00:48:55 #1395 It cost me 450 bucks to tear it out of Cooley.
00:48:58 #1396 Never mind, now what's the story?
00:49:00 #1397 Well, just a minute now I'll give you the story,
00:49:02 #1398 but I'm telling you first I had to give them all the money I had on me,
00:49:04 #1399 and it wasn't exactly mine.
00:49:05 #1400 Well, it's Bruce's money, and I want it back.
00:49:07 #1401 Bruce's money?
00:49:09 #1402 Sure, sure, sure.
00:49:11 #1403 Bruce's money?
00:49:13 #1404 Sure, sure, sure. You'll get it. Now, what's the story?
00:49:16 #1405 I'll send the money right down to you.
00:49:17 #1406 I swear it on my mother's grave.
00:49:19 #1407 All right, here's the... wait a minute. Your mother's alive.
00:49:22 #1408 My grandmother's grave. Don't be technical, Haley. What's the story?
00:49:25 #1409 Well, you get that money down here.
00:49:27 #1410 All right, all right. Here's your story.
00:49:29 #1411 The jailbreak of your dreams.
00:49:30 #1412 It seems this expert, Dr. Agelhoffer, the profound thinker from New York,
00:49:33 #1413 was giving Williams a final sanity test in the Sheriff's office.
00:49:36 #1414 You know, sticking a lot of pins in him so that he could get his reflexes.
00:49:39 #1415 Well, he decided to re-enact the crime exactly as it had taken place
00:49:42 #1416 in order to study Williams' powers of coordination.
00:49:45 #1417 Well, I'm coming to it.
00:49:47 #1418 Of course, he had to have a gun to re-enact the crime with,
00:49:49 #1419 and who do you suppose supplied it?
00:49:51 #1420 Peter B. Hartwell. B for brains.
00:49:53 #1421 Eh.
00:49:54 #1422 No kidding.
00:49:56 #1423 I tell you, I'm not kidding.
00:49:58 #1424 I'm not good enough to make this one up.
00:50:00 #1425 Well, the sheriff gave his gun to the professor,
00:50:02 #1426 and the professor gave it to Earl,
00:50:03 #1427 and Earl shot the professor right in the classified ad.
00:50:05 #1428 No ad.
00:50:07 #1429 Ain't it perfect?
00:50:09 #1430 If the sheriff had enrolled a red carpet,
00:50:10 #1431 and long Williams and Umbrella couldn't have been more ideal.
00:50:13 #1432 Who? Oh, no, no.
00:50:14 #1433 Erkelhoffer wasn't badly heard.
00:50:16 #1434 They took him to the county hospital
00:50:17 #1435 where they're awfully afraid he'll recover.
00:50:19 #1436 Oh, that's great work, Hilda. Huh?
00:50:21 #1437 I'll stop worrying about the money.
00:50:22 #1438 I'll see you get it in 15 minutes.
00:50:24 #1439 Well, I better get it in 15 minutes.
00:50:25 #1440 Bruce is downstairs waiting in a taxi cab for me,
00:50:27 #1441 and we're in a hurry.
00:50:28 #1442 Hold on a minute.
00:50:29 #1443 Hey, Vanjie, come here.
00:50:31 #1444 There's a guy waiting in a taxi
00:50:32 #1445 in front of the criminal courts building.
00:50:33 #1446 His name is Bruce Baldwin.
00:50:34 #1447 What does he look like?
00:50:36 #1448 He looks like, uh, Death Father in the movies,
00:50:37 #1449 you know, uh, Ralph Bellamy. Go ahead.
00:50:39 #1450 Can you handle it?
00:50:40 #1451 I've never flopped on you yet, have I? Come on, get going.
00:50:43 #1452 You only got about two minutes.
00:50:44 #1453 All right.
00:50:45 #1454 Yes, dear, I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
00:50:47 #1455 How much was it again?
00:50:48 #1456 $450?
00:50:49 #1457 Or just a second.
00:50:51 #1458 Louis, I need $450 worth of counterfeit money.
00:50:55 #1459 You can't carry that much, boss.
00:50:56 #1460 No, just a $450 counterfeit. Where can I get it?
00:50:58 #1461 Oh, I got that on me.
00:50:59 #1462 Oh, Connie Coinsol is well.
00:51:00 #1463 Take it over to Hildy.
00:51:02 #1464 Hello. It's coming right over.
00:51:03 #1465 Yeah, I'm sending it over with Louis.
00:51:04 #1466 Well, thanks for your story, dear,
00:51:05 #1467 and good luck on your honeymoon.
00:51:07 #1468 No, no. Never mind the thanks.
00:51:08 #1469 Just see that money gets here.
00:51:13 #1470 Oh, Hilary, you still here?
00:51:14 #1471 No, I'm in Niagara Falls.
00:51:16 #1472 McHugh speaking.
00:51:17 #1473 Emo, I got a good feature for you on the manhunt.
00:51:20 #1474 Ready?
00:51:21 #1475 Mrs. Phoebe DeWolf, a 61 and a half South State
00:51:23 #1476 street color, gave birth to a Peking Indian patrol wagon
00:51:25 #1477 with Chef Hartwell's special rifle squad.
00:51:27 #1478 I can use nurses.
00:51:28 #1479 Phoebe was walking along the street when, that's right.
00:51:31 #1480 Yeah.
00:51:32 #1481 So they coaxed her in the patrol wagon,
00:51:33 #1482 started a race with the start.
00:51:35 #1483 When the Peking Indian was born,
00:51:36 #1484 the rifle squad examined him carefully
00:51:37 #1485 to see if it was Earl Williams.
00:51:39 #1486 Well, they knew he was hiding somewhere.
00:51:41 #1487 Here's the thing, they named the kid Peter Hartwell DeWolf.
00:51:45 #1488 Professor.
00:51:46 #1489 The sheriff.
00:51:47 #1490 Bruce, I thought you were downstairs.
00:51:48 #1491 Get everyone on the manhunt.
00:51:50 #1492 What?
00:51:51 #1493 Here's another feature.
00:51:52 #1494 Arrest it again.
00:51:53 #1495 What for this time?
00:51:54 #1496 Well, they called it mashing.
00:51:59 #1497 No, I didn't, Hilly.
00:52:01 #1498 I was sitting right in the taxi where you left me and the young lady seemed to have
00:52:06 #1499 a dizzy spell and I just...
00:52:08 #1500 Huh?
00:52:09 #1501 Well, uh, she's kind of, uh...
00:52:13 #1502 huh?
00:52:15 #1503 Yeah, she's a blonde.
00:52:17 #1504 Yes, very blonde.
00:52:19 #1505 Never mind. I know how it happened. Just a minute.
00:52:21 #1506 Get me Walter Burns. Hildy Johnson.
00:52:24 #1507 Bruce, where are you? 27th precinct.
00:52:27 #1508 Hold on a minute, will you?
00:52:29 #1509 What are you...
00:52:31 #1510 Well, it was there a minute ago.
00:52:33 #1511 But I would...
00:52:35 #1512 I'm sorry, can't locate him.
00:52:37 #1513 Double-causing. Hello. No, not you.
00:52:39 #1514 Bruce, I can't get there right away.
00:52:41 #1515 About 20 minutes.
00:52:42 #1516 I have to wait here for the...
00:52:44 #1517 I'll tell you when I see you.
00:52:46 #1518 If I ever get my two hands again on that wall of red...
00:52:48 #1519 Hold it in a minute, Amo. Anything I can do to help you with it?
00:52:51 #1520 $1.64. Welcome to it.
00:52:54 #1521 Thanks. You better buy an annuity.
00:52:56 #1522 What's that, Amo? No, I can't give you an official statement.
00:52:59 #1523 No. Wait a minute. Here's the mayor. Maybe he'll give us one.
00:53:02 #1524 How about a statement, mayor?
00:53:03 #1525 Don't pester me now, please. I've got Lala on my mind.
00:53:05 #1526 His honor won't say anything.
00:53:06 #1527 Ever seen Sheriff Hartwell?
00:53:07 #1528 It's hard to tell, your honor. You see, there's a many cockroaches around here.
00:53:10 #1529 Whoa, wait a minute, wait a minute. How about a statement, your honor?
00:53:12 #1530 Sure, we go to press in 20 minutes.
00:53:13 #1531 I can't help that. I've nothing to say, not at this time.
00:53:15 #1532 Uh, just a moment, please. What do you know about the escape?
00:53:17 #1533 How do you get out? Where do you get the gun?
00:53:19 #1534 Wait a minute, boys. Not so fast.
00:53:20 #1535 Well, give us a statement on the election then.
00:53:22 #1536 What effect will all this have on the voters?
00:53:23 #1537 None whatsoever.
00:53:25 #1538 How can an unavoidable misfortune like this have any influence on the upright citizens of our fair city?
00:53:31 #1539 Mr. Mayor, please. Is there a red menace or an ant there?
00:53:34 #1540 How did Williams get out of that rubber jail he or he?
00:53:36 #1541 You understand the gaff? We picked out somebody to be responsible.
00:53:39 #1542 Is there any truth in the report that you're on Stalin's payroll?
00:53:42 #1543 Yeah, the senator claims you sleep in red underwear.
00:53:44 #1544 Never mind the jokes. Don't forget I'm the mayor of this colony.
00:53:47 #1545 Oh, wait. Let it come here. I want to see you.
00:53:49 #1546 How did he get away? Come on.
00:53:51 #1547 Where did he get the gun?
00:53:52 #1548 Hi, your honor. Any statement on the red uprising tomorrow?
00:53:54 #1549 What red uprising?
00:53:55 #1550 There'll be no red uprising.
00:53:57 #1551 The governor says the situation calls for the militia. Give me rewrite.
00:54:00 #1552 They can court me as saying anything the governor says, the tissue of lies.
00:54:03 #1553 Yes.
00:54:04 #1554 Hello, Jake. Here's a Red Heart statement from the governor.
00:54:07 #1555 He claims the mayor and the sheriff have shown themselves
00:54:09 #1556 to be a couple of eight-year-olds playing with fire.
00:54:12 #1557 Yeah.
00:54:14 #1558 You can quote him as follows.
00:54:16 #1559 It is a lucky thing for the city that next Tuesday
00:54:18 #1560 is election day, as the citizens will thus be saved
00:54:21 #1561 the expense of impeaching the mayor and the sheriff.
00:54:23 #1562 All right, so I'll call you back.
00:54:25 #1563 I still have seen you, mayor.
00:54:27 #1564 Excuse me, boys, I've got so much to say.
00:54:28 #1565 Where is it? What's the noise, Kingie?
00:54:30 #1566 Who engineered this? Was it the Reds?
00:54:31 #1567 No. Who was it, you? Me? No.
00:54:33 #1568 Just a minute, I'll tell you, I've got him located.
00:54:35 #1569 Who, William Squire? Where is he?
00:54:36 #1570 I was on the street where he used to live. I just got a tip.
00:54:38 #1571 Well, why didn't you say so?
00:54:39 #1572 The rifle squad's just going out. Oh, oh, oh!
00:54:41 #1573 Be a little patient if you're worried.
00:54:43 #1574 Please, take it out on a guard.
00:54:44 #1575 I've got so much to do.
00:54:46 #1576 Now, see here, Fred.
00:54:47 #1577 They cheer it through. Through?
00:54:49 #1578 You mean I'm through?
00:54:50 #1579 I mean, I'm scratching your nail off of the ticket next to you,
00:54:52 #1580 and I'm running Sherman in your place.
00:54:54 #1581 Well, form the red with a...
00:54:55 #1582 Yeah, but Fred, I will...
00:54:56 #1583 William's just in the red and you'll know it.
00:54:58 #1584 But there are a lot of communistic sympathizers around,
00:55:00 #1585 I thought that if I got a slogan like that, I could put it on board.
00:55:03 #1586 But that's got nothing to do with this case.
00:55:05 #1587 Do you realize there are 200,000 votes at stake?
00:55:07 #1588 And if Earl Williams don't hang, we're going to lose him?
00:55:09 #1589 We're going to hang him? Come in. He can't get away.
00:55:12 #1590 What do you mean he can't get away? He did get away, didn't he?
00:55:14 #1591 What do you want?
00:55:15 #1592 I... What do you want?
00:55:17 #1593 Are you Sheriff Hartwell?
00:55:18 #1594 I'm here. What is it?
00:55:20 #1595 You're a hard man to find, Sheriff.
00:55:22 #1596 I have a message here from the coverage.
00:55:24 #1597 This action, my God.
00:55:25 #1598 It was a reprieve for Earl Williams.
00:55:26 #1599 For who?
00:55:28 #1600 Earl Williams reprieve. I'm sure it's him.
00:55:29 #1601 I don't know what to do.
00:55:31 #1602 What I'd like to do to you?
00:55:33 #1603 Who else were there when he gave you this?
00:55:35 #1604 Nobody. He was out fishing.
00:55:37 #1605 Get the governor on the phone.
00:55:39 #1606 He's not there. He's out duck shooting.
00:55:41 #1607 A guy who's done nothing for the last 40 years
00:55:43 #1608 but play Peanockle, gets elected governor
00:55:45 #1609 and right away he thinks he's a tarzan.
00:55:47 #1610 Read that. Insane, he says.
00:55:49 #1611 He knows very well Williams isn't insane.
00:55:51 #1612 I never met the man.
00:55:53 #1613 It's an attempt to ruin us.
00:55:55 #1614 We've got to think fast.
00:55:57 #1615 in this state on account of you.
00:55:59 #1616 Oh, friend.
00:55:59 #1617 And as an afterthought, tell them I want your resignation now. Hello? Yes?
00:56:04 #1618 Yes, this is Hartlum. What?
00:56:05 #1619 Where? Holy mo-
00:56:08 #1620 Hold the wire! They've got him. They've got Williams.
00:56:10 #1621 They've got him surrounded with a rifle squad.
00:56:12 #1622 Have others at his house.
00:56:12 #1623 Hold him to hold the phone. Hold the idea.
00:56:14 #1624 Hold the wire. Cover up that transfer. Cover up the-
00:56:16 #1625 No.
00:56:17 #1626 Now listen.
00:56:18 #1627 You never arrived with this. Yes, I did. Don't you remember?
00:56:21 #1628 I came through that door and I thought he was Sheriff Hart.
00:56:24 #1629 I mean you, huh?
00:56:24 #1630 What's your salary? $40. No, don't cut me off.
00:56:26 #1631 I'd like to make $350 a month. That's almost $100 a week.
00:56:30 #1632 No, I couldn't afford that. Who me?
00:56:32 #1633 Who do you think? They need a fellow like you in the city sealers office.
00:56:35 #1634 In the what? City sealers.
00:56:36 #1635 You mean I should work in some...
00:56:37 #1636 Wait a minute, I'm in conference.
00:56:39 #1637 My wife wouldn't want me to do that. Why not?
00:56:41 #1638 Well, you see, my wife lives in the country with my family.
00:56:43 #1639 That's all. I just can bring her in here. We'll pay all the expenses.
00:56:46 #1640 No, I don't think so.
00:56:48 #1641 For heaven's sake, why not?
00:56:49 #1642 Well, I've got two kids going to school, and if they change towns, they'll lose a grade.
00:56:53 #1643 They're not going to fight.
00:56:54 #1644 No, they won't. They'll skip a grade.
00:56:54 #1645 And I'll guarantee you that they'll graduate with higher...
00:56:57 #1646 Hold your horses, old man.
00:56:58 #1647 Don't worry, Fred. What do you say?
00:57:00 #1648 No, it puts me in a kind of peculiar hole.
00:57:02 #1649 No, it doesn't. Now, remember, you never delivered this.
00:57:05 #1650 Yes, I did.
00:57:06 #1651 Now, you didn't. You got caught in the traffic or something.
00:57:07 #1652 No, I came around back...
00:57:08 #1653 Well, pretend you did. Now, get out of here and don't let anybody see it.
00:57:11 #1654 Wait a minute.
00:57:12 #1655 Yes, but how do I know that...
00:57:13 #1656 Come in and see me in my office tomorrow. What's your name?
00:57:15 #1657 Teddy Bo. What's your name?
00:57:16 #1658 Teddy Bo. Not really.
00:57:17 #1659 No, no. Now, all you've got to do is delay a loan and keep your mouth shut.
00:57:20 #1660 Well, I'm tired anyhow.
00:57:21 #1661 Here, go to this address. Nice homey place.
00:57:23 #1662 Take good care of you. Just tell them French sense here.
00:57:25 #1663 Here, $50 on a cop.
00:57:27 #1664 Will you wait, Olson? I'll tell you in one minute.
00:57:29 #1665 Oh, you forgot to tell me what a city-sitter is like.
00:57:30 #1666 I'll explain tomorrow.
00:57:31 #1667 Is it hard?
00:57:32 #1668 No, no, easy. Very easy.
00:57:33 #1669 Well, that's good because my health is what my wife...
00:57:36 #1670 Well, I will fix that too. My wife?
00:57:37 #1671 Yeah, fix anything. Go ahead.
00:57:39 #1672 Fred, Fred, they're still on the phone.
00:57:41 #1673 All right. Tell them to shoot to kill. What?
00:57:43 #1674 You heard what I said.
00:57:44 #1675 But the repeat, Fred, the thing is funny.
00:57:45 #1676 All right, do as I tell you.
00:57:46 #1677 All right, hello, Olson. Shoot to kill.
00:57:49 #1678 That's the orders. Pass the word alive.
00:57:51 #1679 $500 reward.
00:57:52 #1680 $500 to the man who does it.
00:57:53 #1681 All right, I'll be right over.
00:57:57 #1682 Hi, Heldie.
00:57:58 #1683 You double-crossing hyena.
00:58:00 #1684 I'd like to take you to the hospital.
00:58:01 #1685 Don't give me that innocent stuff.
00:58:02 #1686 What did you pull on, Mr. Bowler, this time?
00:58:03 #1687 Who, me?
00:58:04 #1688 Yes, you and that albino of yours.
00:58:05 #1689 You talking about Evangeline?
00:58:06 #1690 None other.
00:58:07 #1691 She ain't no albino.
00:58:08 #1692 She'll do until one comes along.
00:58:09 #1693 She was born right here in this country.
00:58:10 #1694 She tries anything else.
00:58:10 #1695 She'll have to stay right here in this country.
00:58:11 #1696 I don't like it.
00:58:12 #1697 And you two, and it won't be on a phony charge either.
00:58:14 #1698 Do you bring that money?
00:58:15 #1699 Oh, yeah.
00:58:16 #1700 $400 bucks.
00:58:17 #1701 $450.
00:58:19 #1702 All right.
00:58:20 #1703 I'm not playing the guy for trying.
00:58:22 #1704 You'd better give me a receipt.
00:58:23 #1705 I'll give you a scar.
00:58:24 #1706 You got plenty of them.
00:58:25 #1707 Oh, and I'll take Mr. Baldwin's wallet, too.
00:58:28 #1708 Mr. Baldwin's what?
00:58:29 #1709 His purse. Come on, come on, Louis.
00:58:31 #1710 All right, Helby. I'll do it for you, because I like you.
00:58:34 #1711 But you better tell that financier to be more careful
00:58:36 #1712 in these hard times, you know what I mean?
00:58:37 #1713 Sure.
00:58:39 #1714 I'll load him a pair of your brass knuckles, too.
00:58:40 #1715 I don't talk that way, Helby. Here, I'll take that.
00:58:42 #1716 I'll take it to the station.
00:58:43 #1717 Wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:58:44 #1718 You'll take it over to the station, all right?
00:58:46 #1719 You'll take it to the 27th Precinct
00:58:47 #1720 and tell the cops how this all happened.
00:58:48 #1721 That's not a bad idea.
00:58:50 #1722 Noe!
00:58:51 #1723 Hello, Operator.
00:58:52 #1724 Hildy Johnson, when do you get me...
00:59:03 #1725 You got that phone?
00:59:05 #1726 Never mind.
00:59:07 #1727 You're not going to tell anybody where I am.
00:59:09 #1728 Put that gun down, Earl.
00:59:11 #1729 You don't want to shoot me, Earl.
00:59:16 #1730 I'm your friend, remember?
00:59:20 #1731 I'm going to write the story and your production for use.
00:59:22 #1732 Oh, yes. That's right.
00:59:23 #1733 Production for use.
00:59:25 #1734 You don't want to hurt your friends?
00:59:27 #1735 Don't move. Maybe you're my friend and maybe you're not.
00:59:29 #1736 But don't come any near.
00:59:31 #1737 But don't come near. You can't trust anybody in this crazy world.
00:59:36 #1738 I don't blame you. You wouldn't trust anybody.
00:59:39 #1739 Don't do that. Put it back. Put it back.
00:59:42 #1740 If you try any tricks, I'll shoot you. I can do it right from here.
00:59:47 #1741 Sure, you could, Earl. You don't want to do that.
00:59:50 #1742 You don't want to kill anybody.
00:59:52 #1743 No, you're right. I don't want to kill anybody.
00:59:55 #1744 That's why I thought...
00:59:56 #1745 Wait a minute. Where are you going?
00:59:58 #1746 I was just going to close the door so nobody would see you.
01:00:01 #1747 No, you weren't. You were going to get somebody.
01:00:03 #1748 But I don't want that.
01:00:04 #1749 All I want is to be left alone. I won't get anybody.
01:00:06 #1750 Yes, you will.
01:00:07 #1751 You'll get them after me again.
01:00:08 #1752 I won't let you do that.
01:00:09 #1753 I will!
01:00:13 #1754 I guess I fired all the shells.
01:00:16 #1755 I'm awful tired.
01:00:18 #1756 I couldn't go through.
01:00:18 #1757 That shot there, look where you're here.
01:00:20 #1758 I don't care.
01:00:21 #1759 I'm not afraid to die.
01:00:23 #1760 I was telling the fellow that when he handed me the gun.
01:00:25 #1761 He's quite willing to.
01:00:26 #1762 Waking me up in the middle of the night,
01:00:28 #1763 talking to me about things they don't understand.
01:00:30 #1764 Shut up.
01:00:31 #1765 Can we stay and take me back if they're having me?
01:00:33 #1766 They will if you don't keep quiet.
01:00:35 #1767 I couldn't go through another day like this.
01:00:37 #1768 Maybe I think I could.
01:00:39 #1769 Give me Walter Burns. Quick.
01:00:41 #1770 Tell him I need him.
01:00:42 #1771 Oh, no.
01:00:44 #1772 Hello, hello.
01:00:46 #1773 Oh, but Bruce, please.
01:00:47 #1774 I know I said to be down 20 minutes,
01:00:48 #1775 but something terrific has happened. Hold on.
01:00:49 #1776 Walter, Hildy, come over here right away.
01:00:51 #1777 Wait, Bruce, just a second. I'll explain everything.
01:00:53 #1778 Walter, get this. I've got Earl Williams here.
01:00:54 #1779 He'll get right in the press room.
01:00:55 #1780 Honest on the level. Hurry, I need you. Right.
01:00:57 #1781 Bruce, the biggest thing in the world has happened.
01:00:58 #1782 I've captured Earl Williams. You know the murder. Stay down there.
01:01:01 #1783 Wait a minute!
01:01:02 #1784 Listen, Bruce, I'll be down.
01:01:03 #1785 But as soon as I hand him over the paper, I'll be right down.
01:01:05 #1786 Bruce, I can't!
01:01:06 #1787 Bruce, don't you realize it's too hard?
01:01:07 #1788 I'm gonna be too...
01:01:09 #1789 Who is it? What do you want, Molly?
01:01:14 #1790 I gotta find...
01:01:15 #1791 Where is everybody?
01:01:16 #1792 They're not here. They've all gone.
01:01:17 #1793 Oh, please tell me where they've gone.
01:01:18 #1794 Please tell me.
01:01:19 #1795 Molly, I don't know. And I'm awfully busy. Am I running wrong?
01:01:21 #1796 Oh, look! They got him surrounded.
01:01:23 #1797 They're gonna shoot him down like a dog.
01:01:24 #1798 They're looking for you, too.
01:01:25 #1799 If you're smart, you'll get out of here.
01:01:26 #1800 I don't care! You gotta tell me.
01:01:27 #1801 You gotta. I ain't afraid of them.
01:01:28 #1802 I'll tell you where they are. They're down to Centre Street.
01:01:30 #1803 Centre and 4th.
01:01:31 #1804 Oh, that's where he used to...
01:01:32 #1805 Molly. Molly, don't go.
01:01:34 #1806 Come in, Molly, drop a cheer.
01:01:36 #1807 Hello, Molly.
01:01:40 #1808 Why did you get in here?
01:01:41 #1809 Down the pipe. I didn't mean to shoot him.
01:01:44 #1810 Really, I didn't.
01:01:45 #1811 You believe me, don't you, Molly?
01:01:48 #1812 Sure, I believe you.
01:01:49 #1813 Thanks for the roses. They were beautiful.
01:01:52 #1814 Yes, sir. Mr. Freedman.
01:01:54 #1815 Don't worry. Heaven's ain't no treat.
01:01:58 #1816 Don't worry. Don't worry.
01:01:59 #1817 I'm gonna get him out of here.
01:02:01 #1818 You wouldn't get halfway down that hall without being seen.
01:02:03 #1819 Yeah, but they'll find you.
01:02:04 #1820 I know what I know.
01:02:05 #1821 I'm trying to think before those reporters come in.
01:02:07 #1822 Let them take me. What in the house does it mean?
01:02:09 #1823 No, I'll never let them.
01:02:10 #1824 Hey, who locked the door?
01:02:13 #1825 It's too late.
01:02:16 #1826 No, it isn't. No, it isn't. Erl, get in this desk.
01:02:17 #1827 Come on, get in.
01:02:19 #1828 I'll get you on the telly.
01:02:24 #1829 I'll find them.
01:02:26 #1830 Get yourself together.
01:02:27 #1831 All right.
01:02:29 #1832 All right, all right.
01:02:30 #1833 What are you trying to do? Kick the billy down?
01:02:35 #1834 You're getting an exclusive, ain't you?
01:02:36 #1835 After all, we got some phone calls to make.
01:02:38 #1836 What's she doing up here?
01:02:39 #1837 Get some smelling salts. What's the matter?
01:02:41 #1838 He came up here and had hysterics.
01:02:43 #1839 Not pretty sick. How do you feel, Kit?
01:02:45 #1840 I don't feel so good. Get you some water.
01:02:47 #1841 I'll get it. Do anything for you? No.
01:02:49 #1842 You don't look so sick to me. You didn't bump into Williams, did you?
01:02:51 #1843 Ain't you funny? Where is he?
01:02:53 #1844 He's on me alone, will you? Okay.
01:02:55 #1845 Give me the desk. No harm in asking.
01:02:57 #1846 Hello, Jim? Yeah, it's false alarm.
01:02:59 #1847 They surrounded the house all right, but they forgot to tell Williams, and he wasn't there.
01:03:03 #1848 Halloween going on outside the whole police force, standing on its ear.
01:03:05 #1849 Hello, Hillby. I thought you weren't gone.
01:03:07 #1850 Give me money from Walden.
01:03:08 #1851 What a chase.
01:03:09 #1852 Give me evil.
01:03:10 #1853 What's wrong, Williams?
01:03:11 #1854 Murphy talking.
01:03:12 #1855 Okay, let's ask.
01:03:13 #1856 Any news, boys?
01:03:14 #1857 Yeah.
01:03:15 #1858 I never been so tired in my life.
01:03:16 #1859 What?
01:03:17 #1860 Where?
01:03:18 #1861 Melrose Station?
01:03:19 #1862 Huh?
01:03:20 #1863 All right, connect me.
01:03:21 #1864 Hello, Molly.
01:03:22 #1865 How are you?
01:03:23 #1866 Hold it a minute.
01:03:24 #1867 Hey, fellas, this looks good.
01:03:25 #1868 Yeah, close it back.
01:03:26 #1869 No lady just called.
01:03:27 #1870 Detective Bjorn claims Williams is hiding under her piazza.
01:03:28 #1871 Tell her to stand up.
01:03:29 #1872 We looked every other place.
01:03:30 #1873 You just want to go out on it?
01:03:31 #1874 I have to stick around.
01:03:32 #1875 I'll cover this in for you.
01:03:33 #1876 It's been a dollar forty on taxi cabs already.
01:03:34 #1877 Let's not do any more going out.
01:03:35 #1878 They were throwing those lights around.
01:03:43 #1879 You know, I got a hunch Williams and Honeyworth
01:03:46 #1880 have been looking for it.
01:03:48 #1881 You might be right here in this building somewhere.
01:03:50 #1882 Sure, sure. Hanging around like a duck in a shooting gallery.
01:03:53 #1883 There's a skylight he got out of, but how did he reach the ground?
01:03:56 #1884 I'm pretending there ain't any error.
01:03:57 #1885 We jump over to this roof. It's only about four feet.
01:04:00 #1886 Yeah, once he got to the roof, he gets slide down at Grand Park.
01:04:03 #1887 And come in any one of these windows on this side.
01:04:05 #1888 The story's gonna walk right in the window.
01:04:07 #1889 The masterminds at work. Why don't you boys go home?
01:04:09 #1890 Maybe Williams will come and call on you.
01:04:10 #1891 Wouldn't it be funny if he's in this building somewhere?
01:04:12 #1892 Why not search the building? Everybody take a floor.
01:04:14 #1893 Oh, no, I'm not gonna wander all over this place.
01:04:16 #1894 A great bunch of reporters you are. The biggest story in two years, and you're all too lazy to go out.
01:04:20 #1895 Say, Hilly, if I know you, you seem pretty anxious to get rid of us.
01:04:23 #1896 You kind of scoop us or something. What is it?
01:04:25 #1897 What are you crazy about? My own time.
01:04:26 #1898 Everybody's been given the story on how Williams got the gun.
01:04:28 #1899 Yeah, did you smuggle that gun into Williams' Molly?
01:04:30 #1900 Oh, no, I didn't do nothing.
01:04:31 #1901 I'm clean, Molly.
01:04:32 #1902 Then you let the girl alone. She said,
01:04:33 #1903 Will?
01:04:34 #1904 Mrs. Baldwin. Mother.
01:04:36 #1905 Don't you mother me.
01:04:38 #1906 playing cat and mouse with my poor boy, keeping him locked up,
01:04:41 #1907 making us miss two trains and you're supposed to be married tomorrow.
01:04:44 #1908 I'll be with you in five minutes.
01:04:45 #1909 You don't have to go with me at all.
01:04:46 #1910 Just give me Bruce's money.
01:04:47 #1911 You can stay here forever as far as I'm concerned.
01:04:50 #1912 You will have to murder or you'll call.
01:04:51 #1913 What's that? What did you say?
01:04:52 #1914 Which one of these men is it?
01:04:54 #1915 They all look like murderers to me.
01:04:55 #1916 Wait a minute. What murder did you...
01:04:57 #1917 What are you talking about? I never said any such thing.
01:04:59 #1918 I'm quoting my son and he has never lied to me.
01:05:01 #1919 That's ridiculous. The first place.
01:05:03 #1920 I never said anything like that.
01:05:04 #1921 Yes, you did.
01:05:05 #1922 No, I didn't. I said I was trying to find the murder.
01:05:07 #1923 Come on, no, no, no.
01:05:08 #1924 I've got it all bowled up. Can't you see that?
01:05:10 #1925 Nobody. I'll let me go.
01:05:12 #1926 William, I don't know where he is.
01:05:14 #1927 Stop it! Stop it!
01:05:15 #1928 What are you asking her for?
01:05:17 #1929 She don't know where he is.
01:05:18 #1930 I'm the only one that knows.
01:05:20 #1931 Where is William?
01:05:21 #1932 Try and find out.
01:05:22 #1933 Come on, Molly. Talk.
01:05:23 #1934 Talk? Now you want me to talk?
01:05:25 #1935 Oh, you've had funny.
01:05:26 #1936 You wouldn't listen to me before, not even for a minute.
01:05:28 #1937 And now you want me to talk?
01:05:30 #1938 Don't tell him anything, Molly.
01:05:31 #1939 Let me alone. I know what I'm doing.
01:05:32 #1940 See you later, silly.
01:05:33 #1941 Why didn't you listen to me? Why?
01:05:34 #1942 Come on, cut that out.
01:05:35 #1943 You keep an eye on her.
01:05:37 #1944 What do you want to know?
01:05:39 #1945 So you can write some more lies.
01:05:40 #1946 So you can sell some more paper.
01:05:41 #1947 Never mind, Dad.
01:05:42 #1948 All right. I'll tell you what I'll do.
01:05:44 #1949 I'll give you a story. I'll give you a wonderful story.
01:05:46 #1950 Only this time it'll be true.
01:05:48 #1951 You'll never find it now.
01:05:49 #1952 No!
01:05:51 #1953 Get the ambulance. Somebody.
01:05:52 #1954 Get an ambulance. Somebody.
01:05:58 #1955 She's dead.
01:05:59 #1956 Oh, she isn't killed. She's moving.
01:06:06 #1957 Darling, did you see that? She jumped out the window.
01:06:07 #1958 Mind all that. Where is he? I said.
01:06:09 #1959 She isn't dead.
01:06:10 #1960 Where have you got William?
01:06:11 #1961 He's in the desk.
01:06:12 #1962 Kevin, she didn't kill herself.
01:06:14 #1963 How you doing?
01:06:15 #1964 Let me out. I can't stand it.
01:06:16 #1965 Keep quiet. You're sitting pretty.
01:06:18 #1966 What's in there?
01:06:19 #1967 Who are you?
01:06:20 #1968 Who are you doing?
01:06:21 #1969 Who is she?
01:06:22 #1970 This is Mrs. Baldwin Bruce's mother.
01:06:23 #1971 What are you doing?
01:06:24 #1972 Shut up!
01:06:25 #1973 I won't shut up!
01:06:26 #1974 You're doing something wrong!
01:06:27 #1975 Mother, please!
01:06:28 #1976 Take her out of here!
01:06:29 #1977 Wait a minute, water!
01:06:30 #1978 Quiet!
01:06:31 #1979 Louie!
01:06:32 #1980 Yes, sir.
01:06:33 #1981 Take the lady over to Pollock Mike's.
01:06:34 #1982 My name's Louie Paluso.
01:06:35 #1983 Ah!
01:06:37 #1984 Lock her up!
01:06:38 #1985 See, she doesn't talk to one another the way.
01:06:39 #1986 What do you can't do this?
01:06:40 #1987 What do I tell him?
01:06:41 #1988 Tell him it's a case of DT.
01:06:42 #1989 I'm going after mother. I'm going to get Bruce out of jail.
01:06:44 #1990 Wolda, why did you have to do this to me?
01:06:46 #1991 Get Bruce out of jail? How can you worry about a man
01:06:49 #1992 who's resting in a nice quiet police station?
01:06:51 #1993 Well, this is going on.
01:06:52 #1994 Hillary, this is war. You can't desert me now.
01:06:54 #1995 Oh, Wolda, we didn't get off that trapeze.
01:06:55 #1996 You've got your story right over there in the desk.
01:06:56 #1997 Go on, smear it all over the front page.
01:06:57 #1998 Joe Williams captured by the morning post.
01:06:59 #1999 I covered your story for you,
01:07:00 #2000 and I got in a fine mess doing it now. I'm getting out.
01:07:02 #2001 You're drooling, idiot. What do you mean?
01:07:03 #2002 I'm just getting out.
01:07:05 #2003 There are 365 days in a year one can get mad.
01:07:07 #2004 How many times you got a murderer locked up in a desk once in a lifetime?
01:07:10 #2005 Hillary, you got the whole city by the seat of the pants.
01:07:12 #2006 I know, I know.
01:07:13 #2007 You know, you know, you got the brain of a pancake.
01:07:15 #2008 This isn't just a story. You're covering it's a revolution.
01:07:17 #2009 This is the greatest yarn in journalism since Livingston discovered Stanley.
01:07:20 #2010 The other way around.
01:07:21 #2011 Oh, well don't get technical at a time like this.
01:07:23 #2012 You realize what you've done, honey.
01:07:25 #2013 You've taken a city that's been graph-ridden for 40 years under the same old gang.
01:07:28 #2014 And with this yarn, you're kicking him out.
01:07:29 #2015 You give me a chance to have the same kind of government in New York's having under the gloire of you.
01:07:33 #2016 Listen, honey, if I didn't have your best interest at heart,
01:07:35 #2017 You think I wish my time arguing with you?
01:07:37 #2018 You've done something big, Hilda.
01:07:38 #2019 You stepped up into a new class.
01:07:40 #2020 Huh?
01:07:41 #2021 We'll make such monkeys out of those ward healers next Tuesday.
01:07:43 #2022 Nobody will vote for them, not even their wives.
01:07:45 #2023 I suppose it may.
01:07:46 #2024 Certainly. We'll crucify that mob.
01:07:47 #2025 We'll keep Williams undercover until morning,
01:07:49 #2026 so the post can break the story exclusive.
01:07:50 #2027 Then we'll let the governor in on the capture.
01:07:52 #2028 Share the glory with her.
01:07:53 #2029 Yeah, I get it.
01:07:54 #2030 You kicked her over the whole city hall
01:07:55 #2031 like an apocard.
01:07:56 #2032 You got the man, Harpwell, backed up against the warrior.
01:07:57 #2033 Put one in the street, snap another one in.
01:07:59 #2034 This isn't just a newspaper story, Hilda.
01:08:01 #2035 It's a career.
01:08:02 #2036 And you stand there belly-agging about where
01:08:04 #2037 about whether you catch an eight o'clock train or a nine o'clock train.
01:08:06 #2038 But, oh, I never figured it that way.
01:08:07 #2039 Oh, you still a dull-faced hick, that's why?
01:08:08 #2040 Gee, he'd be the Whitehead Boy, so he wouldn't.
01:08:10 #2041 Sure, they'd be named me Streets after you.
01:08:11 #2042 Hildy Johnson Street.
01:08:12 #2043 There'll be statues, you'll be in the parks,
01:08:13 #2044 there'll be movies, there'll be after you, the radio.
01:08:15 #2045 By tomorrow morning, I'll bet you there's a Hildy Johnson cigar.
01:08:17 #2046 You see the Bill Boys now, it says,
01:08:18 #2047 light up with Hildy Johnson.
01:08:19 #2048 Oh, wow, will he stop that, Auntie?
01:08:20 #2049 Huh?
01:08:21 #2050 We got a lot to do.
01:08:22 #2051 Oh, you're talking.
01:08:23 #2052 We can't leave Williams in here.
01:08:24 #2053 Well, take your moment of my private office.
01:08:25 #2054 Which is our phone?
01:08:26 #2055 How are you going to take him?
01:08:28 #2056 Not if he's inside the desk. We'll carry the desk over.
01:08:30 #2057 You can't move that desk. It's crawling with cops outside.
01:08:32 #2058 We're lured out the window with pulleys.
01:08:34 #2059 Now quit stalling. Get the typewriter over here.
01:08:36 #2060 Come on. Stop pining out a lead.
01:08:38 #2061 How much of this stuff do you want?
01:08:40 #2062 All the way as you got. Hello. Give me Duffy.
01:08:42 #2063 Can I call a mayor or a bird of prey?
01:08:44 #2064 Call him anything you like.
01:08:46 #2065 How about the time he had his house painted by the fire department?
01:08:48 #2066 Get the work done.
01:08:50 #2067 Duffy, get set. We've got the biggest story in years.
01:08:52 #2068 Errol Williams captured by the morning post-exclusive.
01:08:54 #2069 I never mind the European war. We've got something a lot bigger than that.
01:08:57 #2070 Hilda Johnson is riding the lead. I'll give her to you as soon as she's finished.
01:08:59 #2071 And listen, Duffy, get hold of Butch O'Connor.
01:09:01 #2072 Trying to come up here right away with half a dozen of his wrestlers.
01:09:03 #2073 Yeah, Butch O'Connor. What?
01:09:05 #2074 Well, I got a desk out. Never mind one.
01:09:07 #2075 Hilda. What the deuce do you want?
01:09:08 #2076 Hello, Bruce. Hilda.
01:09:10 #2077 No, no, never mind that Chinese earthquake we're having, sir.
01:09:12 #2078 Hilda, I just want to ask you one question.
01:09:14 #2079 Bruce, how did you get out of jail?
01:09:15 #2080 Well, not through any help.
01:09:17 #2081 No, listen, buddy, you can't come in here. We're missing.
01:09:18 #2082 I had to wire Albany for $100 so I could get out on bail.
01:09:21 #2083 I could get out on bail.
01:09:23 #2084 I don't care if there's a million days.
01:09:25 #2085 They had to send the money to the police station.
01:09:28 #2086 Come on, we're waiting for that story.
01:09:30 #2087 We'll explain everything to the Bruce.
01:09:32 #2088 Where's Mother? She said she was coming up here.
01:09:34 #2089 I can't hear you, Duffy.
01:09:36 #2090 No, no, junk-n-polish corridor.
01:09:38 #2091 Tell me where my Mother was going.
01:09:40 #2092 She couldn't say.
01:09:42 #2093 Did she get the money from you?
01:09:44 #2094 She left in a hurry.
01:09:46 #2095 I'll take that money.
01:09:48 #2096 I'll take that certificate.
01:09:50 #2097 Here, take it so you can find your money in the wallet.
01:09:52 #2098 My wallet? This is my wallet.
01:09:55 #2099 Say, there's something funny going on.
01:09:57 #2100 What are you doing?
01:09:58 #2101 Just wanted to look at it.
01:10:00 #2102 Billy, I'm taking the nine o'clock train.
01:10:05 #2103 Did you hear what I said?
01:10:07 #2104 I said I'm taking the nine o'clock train.
01:10:09 #2105 Oh, Bruce, I put it in here.
01:10:13 #2106 Better alone, will you, buddy?
01:10:15 #2107 Will you do me a favor, Bruce Lee?
01:10:16 #2108 I just wanted to answer one question.
01:10:18 #2109 You don't want to come with me.
01:10:20 #2110 I need that.
01:10:21 #2111 Come on.
01:10:22 #2112 Come on, you don't, do you?
01:10:23 #2113 No.
01:10:24 #2114 Take all those Miss America pictures off Payfait's cell.
01:10:26 #2115 Please tell me the truth.
01:10:28 #2116 Oh, wait.
01:10:29 #2117 If you ever love me, you know the...
01:10:30 #2118 Now look here, my good man.
01:10:31 #2119 You shut up, Burns.
01:10:32 #2120 How can I do anything great?
01:10:33 #2121 You're doing all this to her.
01:10:34 #2122 I know that.
01:10:35 #2123 She wanted to get away from you and everything you stand for, but you were too smart.
01:10:38 #2124 You quarter and changed her mind.
01:10:39 #2125 Hey, Hitler and stick him on the funny page.
01:10:41 #2126 Now let me ask you, but you're going to be a name for a man like him?
01:10:44 #2127 No, I am not.
01:10:45 #2128 But Bruce, can't you see that something's happened?
01:10:46 #2129 Wait, I'll tell you everything.
01:10:47 #2130 Tell him.
01:10:48 #2131 You're not a spy. Come on, you're coming with me.
01:10:52 #2132 Give me a second. Can't you see this is the biggest thing in my life?
01:10:55 #2133 I'll keep. I'm like something in the icebox.
01:10:58 #2134 You just don't love me.
01:11:00 #2135 That's true. You said you don't love me.
01:11:02 #2136 Now you know that isn't the point at all.
01:11:04 #2137 You never intended to be decent and live like a human being.
01:11:07 #2138 All right. That's all you want to think.
01:11:09 #2139 Bastion jumping. I'm trying to concentrate.
01:11:11 #2140 You're just like him and all the rest.
01:11:13 #2141 Sure. That's what I am.
01:11:15 #2142 No, leave the rooster story alone. That's human interest.
01:11:19 #2143 Did you get a hold of a bunch of coffee?
01:11:21 #2144 If you like these sympathy or understanding of the family...
01:11:23 #2145 Wait, wait, just a minute. There's only one question I want to know.
01:11:26 #2146 Walter, the mayor's first wife. What was her name?
01:11:28 #2147 You mean the one with the ward on her? Fanny. What did you say, Dunphy?
01:11:31 #2148 I don't think you ever loved me at all.
01:11:33 #2149 Never mind that. You're not working for the advertising department.
01:11:36 #2150 If you change your mind, I'm leaving on the nine o'clock train.
01:11:39 #2151 You've got to think that I am instead of trying to take me to something else.
01:11:42 #2152 I'm a newspaper man.
01:11:43 #2153 Stop, Bill. Keep it coming. You're fast as you can.
01:11:46 #2154 Get back in there, you mock turtle.
01:11:50 #2155 Hello, Duffy. Did you tell Pusher this game to take a taxi?
01:11:52 #2156 Is it a matter of life and death? Good. Stay on this wire.
01:11:55 #2157 Push it on his way over. All we gotta do is hold on for 15 minutes.
01:11:57 #2158 The boys will be back. They'll be coming in here to phone.
01:11:59 #2159 I'll handle them.
01:12:00 #2160 Come on, down the moon, sir.
01:12:04 #2161 Fine. Three taps is made. Don't forget. How are you doing? Got enough air?
01:12:12 #2162 Not very much.
01:12:12 #2163 That better? You're sitting pretty. How's it coming, honey?
01:12:16 #2164 Oh, all right, I guess. Where's Bruce?
01:12:18 #2165 Bruce? Oh, he went out.
01:12:19 #2166 Is he coming back here?
01:12:20 #2167 Certainly he's coming back. Didn't you hear him?
01:12:21 #2168 What have you got so far? Let me hear it.
01:12:23 #2169 While hundreds of sheriff Hotwells paid gunman's stops
01:12:25 #2170 for the city shooting innocent bystanders,
01:12:27 #2171 spreading the Array of Terror, Earl Williams was lurking
01:12:29 #2172 less than 20 hours in the sheriff's...
01:12:30 #2173 Wait a minute. Aren't you going to make some of the post?
01:12:31 #2174 Doesn't the paper get any credit?
01:12:32 #2175 I did that right there in the second paragraph.
01:12:34 #2176 Who's going to read the second paragraph?
01:12:35 #2177 Listen, honey, for 10 years I've been telling you
01:12:36 #2178 a hundred-mile newspaper story, and that's what I do.
01:12:37 #2179 I'm sorry.
01:12:38 #2180 What's the idea of locking his door?
01:12:43 #2181 Who's that?
01:12:44 #2182 Men's and girls. That's his desk.
01:12:46 #2183 Open the door!
01:12:48 #2184 What do you say his name was?
01:12:50 #2185 Benzinger. It's a tribune.
01:12:52 #2186 Who's in there?
01:12:54 #2187 I'm the only better sense in that... Hello.
01:12:57 #2188 Hello, Mr. Burns.
01:12:59 #2189 Quite an honor having you come over here.
01:13:01 #2190 Hello, Benzinger.
01:13:02 #2191 Oh, you know my...
01:13:04 #2192 Excuse me, I just want to get my...
01:13:06 #2193 You know it's quite a coincidence seeing you tonight, isn't it, Hildy?
01:13:08 #2194 Yes, yes.
01:13:09 #2195 How do you mean?
01:13:10 #2196 As a matter of fact, I was talking to Mr. Duffy about you just this afternoon.
01:13:12 #2197 Really? Well, nothing got to the metal, I hope.
01:13:14 #2198 On the contrary. On the contrary.
01:13:16 #2199 On the contrary, there was once a story in the paper this morning.
01:13:19 #2200 Oh, did you care for the poem, Mr. Burns?
01:13:22 #2201 The poem? The poem was great.
01:13:25 #2202 I like the ending especially, and all is well outside his cell.
01:13:28 #2203 But in his heart, he hears the hangman calling,
01:13:31 #2204 and the gallows falling, and his white-haired mother's tears.
01:13:35 #2205 Heartbreaking? That's fine.
01:13:37 #2206 Now, how'd you like to come and work for me? What?
01:13:38 #2207 Yes, we can use a man like you.
01:13:40 #2208 All we got now are a lot of lowbrows like Johnson here.
01:13:42 #2209 Are you serious, Mr. Burns?
01:13:43 #2210 Serious, wait a minute.
01:13:45 #2211 Listen, Duffy, I'm sending a Mr. Bensinger over to see you.
01:13:48 #2212 Oh, yeah, and Mervyn, isn't it?
01:13:50 #2213 Yeah, no, Roy, Roy V.
01:13:51 #2214 Certainly.
01:13:52 #2215 Roy V. Bensinger, the poet.
01:13:55 #2216 Well, of course, you wouldn't know.
01:13:56 #2217 You probably never heard of Shakespeare either.
01:13:57 #2218 Hi.
01:14:00 #2219 Now, look, I want you to put Mr. Bensinger on the staff right away.
01:14:03 #2220 How much getting on the Tribune, Roy? 75.
01:14:04 #2221 I'll give you 100 in the byline.
01:14:06 #2222 Now, you give him everything he wants.
01:14:07 #2223 You understand?
01:14:08 #2224 OK.
01:14:09 #2225 Look, Roy, I want you to hustle and write me a story
01:14:12 #2226 from the point of view of the escaped man.
01:14:13 #2227 He hides, cowering, afraid of every sound,
01:14:15 #2228 of every light. He hears footsteps as hard as going like that.
01:14:17 #2229 And all the time they're closing in.
01:14:18 #2230 Now get the sense of the animal at bay.
01:14:20 #2231 Sort of Jack London style. Exactly.
01:14:22 #2232 I'll just get my rhyming digs.
01:14:23 #2233 It doesn't have to rhyme.
01:14:25 #2234 Oh, well, I'm deeply grateful, Mr. Burns. Good.
01:14:28 #2235 It's very, uh, oh, oh.
01:14:29 #2236 If you should have an opening for a war correspondent,
01:14:32 #2237 I'd parlay a little French, you know.
01:14:34 #2238 I'll keep in mind.
01:14:35 #2239 Au revoir, mon capitaine.
01:14:36 #2240 Bonjour.
01:14:41 #2241 His white-haired mother's teeth.
01:14:43 #2242 That's a tough one, isn't it?
01:14:44 #2243 Now listen, that fellow Benzinger
01:14:45 #2244 is on his way over to see you right now.
01:14:47 #2245 Handling with King Gloves.
01:14:48 #2246 Put him to work writing poetry.
01:14:49 #2247 No, no, we don't want him.
01:14:51 #2248 Just stall him along until the extras out,
01:14:52 #2249 then tell him his poetry smells and kick him downstairs.
01:14:54 #2250 Double crossing, Swine.
01:14:56 #2251 You said a little teacher molest me.
01:14:57 #2252 Won't quit his paper without giving notice, actually.
01:14:59 #2253 I mean you.
01:15:00 #2254 Me? Double cross anybody. Wait a minute. What?
01:15:03 #2255 Just remembered, Bruce isn't coming back here.
01:15:05 #2256 He said he was taking the 9 o'clock train.
01:15:06 #2257 Oh, well, in that case, he's gone by now.
01:15:08 #2258 Come on, honey.
01:15:08 #2259 You gotta sit there like a frozen robin,
01:15:10 #2260 get off of the story.
01:15:11 #2261 We ought to have our claims all finished
01:15:12 #2262 by the time Butch gets here.
01:15:13 #2263 How you have messed up my life.
01:15:15 #2264 What am I going to do?
01:15:17 #2265 The windows too small. We'll have to carry the desk out of the building.
01:15:20 #2266 What a snap I am falling for your line. They're gonna name streets after John.
01:15:24 #2267 Yes, you've had a nice rest. Now get back to work.
01:15:26 #2268 We're not going to get to work. Paul, what's...
01:15:30 #2269 Who is it?
01:15:31 #2270 It's me, boss. It's Louis.
01:15:32 #2271 Louis?
01:15:33 #2272 Oh, what's the matter with you?
01:15:36 #2273 What's the problem? What happened?
01:15:38 #2274 You been in a site?
01:15:39 #2275 Down Weston Avenue, we were going 65 miles an hour.
01:15:41 #2276 You know what I mean?
01:15:42 #2277 Take that mush out of your mouth.
01:15:43 #2278 Where's the old lady?
01:15:44 #2279 He runs smack into a police patrol.
01:15:46 #2280 You know what I mean? We busted it in half.
01:15:47 #2281 What's he hurt?
01:15:48 #2282 Imagine bumping into a load of cops. They come rolling out like oranges.
01:15:51 #2283 What did you do with them?
01:15:52 #2284 Oh, such me when I come. Two hours running down 30-question.
01:15:54 #2285 You were with her, weren't you? Was I?
01:15:55 #2286 You were in the taxi cab.
01:15:56 #2287 The driver got not cold.
01:15:58 #2288 Butterfingers? I'll give you an old dame to take someone. You hand her over to the cops.
01:16:01 #2289 What do you mean I handed her? The cops was on the wrong side of the street.
01:16:05 #2290 Now everything's fine. She's probably squawking her head off in a police station.
01:16:07 #2291 I don't think she's squawking much. You know what I mean?
01:16:10 #2292 Don't tell me. Was she killed?
01:16:12 #2293 Hey, what she did you notice, hmm?
01:16:13 #2294 Say, listen, me with a gun on the hip and a kidnapped old lady on my hands,
01:16:16 #2295 I'm going to stick around asking questions from a lot of cops.
01:16:19 #2296 You know what I mean?
01:16:20 #2297 Dead. Dead. Oh, this is the end. Oh.
01:16:23 #2298 It's fate, Hildy. What will be will be.
01:16:26 #2299 What am I going to say to Bruce? What can I tell him?
01:16:29 #2300 Look, honey, if he really loves you, you won't have to tell him anything.
01:16:31 #2301 Snap out of it, would you rather have had the old dame
01:16:33 #2302 dragging the whole police force in here?
01:16:35 #2303 I killed her. I'm responsible.
01:16:37 #2304 What am I going to do? How can I ever face Bruce again?
01:16:40 #2305 Look at me, Hildy.
01:16:41 #2306 I am looking at you, you murderer.
01:16:43 #2307 Oh, now, if it was my own grandmother, I'd carry on you.
01:16:45 #2308 You know I would for the paper.
01:16:47 #2309 Louis, where did it happen?
01:16:49 #2310 Western and 34th.
01:16:50 #2311 I've got to get out of here.
01:16:51 #2312 We can do more here. Now be calm.
01:16:54 #2313 Listen.
01:16:55 #2314 Hello? Hello?
01:16:58 #2315 Me and 4557.
01:16:59 #2316 Who?
01:17:01 #2317 Well, Butch, where are you?
01:17:02 #2318 Oh, no. Mission Hospital receiving room, please.
01:17:04 #2319 Well, what are you doing there? Haven't you even started?
01:17:06 #2320 Oh, Eddie. Hildy Johnson.
01:17:07 #2321 Was there an old lady brought in there from a local stash?
01:17:08 #2322 Oh, for eight Sebastian, Butch.
01:17:09 #2323 Listen, it's a matter of life and death.
01:17:11 #2324 Nobody?
01:17:12 #2325 I can't hear.
01:17:13 #2326 Morningstack 2469.
01:17:15 #2327 Speak up.
01:17:16 #2328 What? You can't stop for a day now.
01:17:19 #2329 The hospital is giving me the receipt.
01:17:20 #2330 I don't care if you've been after her for six years.
01:17:23 #2331 You're going to let a woman come between us after all we've been through.
01:17:26 #2332 Oh, Max, was there no lady brought in there in an auto smash-up?
01:17:28 #2333 Butch, I'd put my arm in fire for you after here.
01:17:31 #2334 Now you can't double-cross me.
01:17:33 #2335 Well, look around, will you please?
01:17:34 #2336 She does. All right, put her on. I'll talk to her.
01:17:36 #2337 Oh, good evening, madam.
01:17:38 #2338 Now listen, you ten-cent glamour girl.
01:17:40 #2339 You can't keep her away from his duty.
01:17:42 #2340 What's that? You say that again.
01:17:43 #2341 I'll come over there and kick you in the teeth.
01:17:45 #2342 Hey, what kind of language is that?
01:17:47 #2343 Now, look here, you...
01:17:49 #2344 Hmm, she hung up. What did I say?
01:17:51 #2345 Whoo!
01:17:53 #2346 Duffy!
01:17:54 #2347 I like that. Mousin' around with something.
01:17:56 #2348 Duffy!
01:17:57 #2349 You shut up in front of here!
01:17:58 #2350 Duffy! Let's cooperate.
01:17:59 #2351 Nobody!
01:18:00 #2352 Duffy!
01:18:01 #2353 Well, where is Duffy?
01:18:03 #2354 Hmm!
01:18:04 #2355 Die of beta, so I ought to know better than to hire anybody with a disease.
01:18:08 #2356 Well, give me Olympia. Two one-eyed women.
01:18:10 #2357 Yes, boy.
01:18:11 #2358 Louis, it's up to you.
01:18:12 #2359 Anything you say, boy.
01:18:13 #2360 Well, beat it up. Get a hold of some guys.
01:18:14 #2361 Who do you want?
01:18:15 #2362 Anybody with hair on his chest.
01:18:16 #2363 Get him off the street.
01:18:17 #2364 Get him anywhere.
01:18:18 #2365 Offer him anything or he'll get him.
01:18:19 #2366 We've got to get that desk out of here.
01:18:20 #2367 Is it important?
01:18:21 #2368 Is it important to listen to the best friend I've got?
01:18:23 #2369 I like you too, boy.
01:18:24 #2370 All right, then don't fail me.
01:18:25 #2371 Get enough people to move that desk.
01:18:26 #2372 Now, come on.
01:18:27 #2373 I'm relying on you.
01:18:28 #2374 I don't know me, boss.
01:18:29 #2375 To shite off my back.
01:18:30 #2376 Okay.
01:18:31 #2377 Don't bump into anything.
01:18:32 #2378 That dumb immigrant to flop on me and shows you're born.
01:18:33 #2379 Try it again.
01:18:34 #2380 It's a hospital.
01:18:35 #2381 It's bound to happen.
01:18:36 #2382 Well, if he's not begging for five minutes, we're carrying out a loan.
01:18:37 #2383 Do anything you want.
01:18:38 #2384 Now, million ways we can start a fire.
01:18:40 #2385 Have the firemen take it out in the confusion.
01:18:41 #2386 I don't give a darn what you do.
01:18:43 #2387 Hey, come here. See if we can lift it.
01:18:44 #2388 Oh, what? Nobody? Oh, never mind.
01:18:46 #2389 Are you going to help me?
01:18:47 #2390 No, I'm not.
01:18:48 #2391 Do you want me to strain my back?
01:18:49 #2392 Yes, I'm going to find Mrs. Baldwin.
01:18:51 #2393 Don't hold me at door.
01:18:51 #2394 I've gone down to the morgue, and I'm going to find my boy.
01:18:53 #2395 Hey, wait.
01:18:54 #2396 We want to talk to Mrs. Baldwin.
01:18:55 #2397 Let go. What's the idea?
01:18:56 #2398 What's your ferris?
01:18:57 #2399 Oh, my boy.
01:18:58 #2400 Now look here, Johnson.
01:18:59 #2401 Hey, you.
01:19:00 #2402 You mean me?
01:19:01 #2403 Yes, you.
01:19:02 #2404 What do you mean by breaking in here like this?
01:19:04 #2405 Hm?
01:19:05 #2406 You can't bluff me, Burns.
01:19:07 #2407 I don't care who you are or what paper you're reading at all.
01:19:09 #2408 Look, let go of me, will you?
01:19:10 #2409 Hang on a minute, boys.
01:19:11 #2410 Oh, please, look, fellas, something's happened to my mother-in-law.
01:19:12 #2411 We need her in here.
01:19:13 #2412 They'll be going out to get William.
01:19:14 #2413 She had the door locked.
01:19:15 #2414 She and Marla are in here talking.
01:19:16 #2415 I don't know where he is.
01:19:17 #2416 Oh, look, I don't know anything really,
01:19:18 #2417 and there's been an accident.
01:19:19 #2418 Johnson, there's something very, very peculiar going on here.
01:19:22 #2419 Now, see here, Johnson.
01:19:23 #2420 Just a moment, Hartwell.
01:19:24 #2421 If you have any accusations to make,
01:19:26 #2422 make them in the proper manner.
01:19:27 #2423 Otherwise, I'll have to ask you to get out.
01:19:29 #2424 You'll ask me to what?
01:19:31 #2425 Get out.
01:19:32 #2426 Oh, you will, eh? You keep that door closed and don't let anybody in or out.
01:19:35 #2427 Now, we'll see about this.
01:19:37 #2428 Come on, Pinky. Give him the third degree.
01:19:38 #2429 Yeah, I'm talking. You've got Williams, Pinky.
01:19:39 #2430 Yes. Now, look here, Johnson. I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
01:19:42 #2431 Are you going to talk or aren't you?
01:19:43 #2432 Well, what do you want me to say?
01:19:44 #2433 What do you know about Williams?
01:19:46 #2434 Now, we're getting...
01:19:48 #2435 All right, boys. Take her out of here.
01:19:50 #2436 Oh, no, you don't. Don't you dare touch me or... Oh!
01:19:53 #2437 Ouch! She's got a gun! Grab it!
01:19:54 #2438 Oh, no, you don't! Waller!
01:19:56 #2439 All right, Burns. I'll take that gun.
01:20:00 #2440 Where did you get this gun?
01:20:01 #2441 I've got a right to carry a gun if I want to.
01:20:02 #2442 Not this gun?
01:20:03 #2443 I can explain that, Harfield.
01:20:04 #2444 When Hilty told me she was going to interview Earl Williams,
01:20:06 #2445 I thought it would be dangerous,
01:20:07 #2446 so I gave her a gun to defend herself.
01:20:08 #2447 Oh, you did. Well, that's very interesting.
01:20:10 #2448 But this happens to be the gun that Williams used
01:20:12 #2449 to shoot his way out with. Why?
01:20:13 #2450 Good man, are you trying to make me out a liar?
01:20:15 #2451 I ought to know my own gun, not a knife.
01:20:17 #2452 Oh, so that's where you got the gun.
01:20:19 #2453 Ah, Hilty got it from Williams.
01:20:20 #2454 Where is Earl Williams? Where have you got him?
01:20:22 #2455 You're barking up the wrong tree, Harfield.
01:20:24 #2456 I'll give you three minutes to tell me where he is.
01:20:25 #2457 He went over to the hospital to call on Professor Egglehoffer. What?
01:20:31 #2458 What is he doing here? Speak up! Speak up!
01:20:33 #2459 What do you know about this? My dear fellow.
01:20:35 #2460 Where is he? The morning post does not obstruct justice or hide criminals.
01:20:39 #2461 You ought to know that. Johnson, you're under arrest.
01:20:41 #2462 What? And you too, Burns.
01:20:43 #2463 Those under arrest listen, you insignificant square-toed, pimple-headed spy.
01:20:47 #2464 Do you realize what you're doing? I'll show you what I'm doing.
01:20:49 #2465 Burns, you're obstructing justice. And so is the morning post.
01:20:52 #2466 And I'm going to see that you're fine $10,000.
01:20:54 #2467 You'll see nothing of the kind.
01:20:56 #2468 And I'm going to begin by impounding the post property.
01:20:58 #2469 Is this your desk? No.
01:20:59 #2470 Yes. What are you afraid of, Hildy?
01:21:01 #2471 I dare you to move this desk out of here.
01:21:03 #2472 Go ahead and try it.
01:21:04 #2473 All right, I will.
01:21:05 #2474 No, I'm warning you. You move this desk out of this building
01:21:07 #2475 and I'll put you behind bars.
01:21:08 #2476 He can do it, too.
01:21:09 #2477 Is that so?
01:21:10 #2478 I'll see the Roosevelt. Here's a better one.
01:21:11 #2479 All right. Tell him. Come on, boys.
01:21:12 #2480 Confiscate this desk.
01:21:13 #2481 All right, now this is your last chance.
01:21:14 #2482 This is a federal offense.
01:21:15 #2483 The new fellows will be accessory.
01:21:16 #2484 Will you take a chance on that?
01:21:17 #2485 Go ahead, boys.
01:21:18 #2486 All right.
01:21:20 #2487 Open up this door.
01:21:21 #2488 Mother. Mother, I am glad to see you.
01:21:24 #2489 Are you all right? I've been no more worried.
01:21:25 #2490 That's the man that did it right there.
01:21:27 #2491 What's the idea here?
01:21:31 #2492 This lady claims she's been kidnapped.
01:21:32 #2493 What?
01:21:33 #2494 They dragged me all the way down the stairs.
01:21:35 #2495 Just a minute.
01:21:36 #2496 Did this man have anything to do with it?
01:21:37 #2497 Well, he was in charge of the whole thing.
01:21:39 #2498 He told him to kidnap me.
01:21:40 #2499 Excuse me, madam.
01:21:41 #2500 Are you referring to me?
01:21:43 #2501 Well, you know you did.
01:21:44 #2502 What about this, Burns?
01:21:45 #2503 Kidnapping, huh?
01:21:46 #2504 Oh, trying to frame me, huh?
01:21:47 #2505 I never saw this woman before in my life.
01:21:50 #2506 Why, what a thing to say.
01:21:51 #2507 I was standing right here when that girl jumped out of the window.
01:21:54 #2508 Call the mayor.
01:21:55 #2509 Get him over here right away.
01:21:56 #2510 Now, look here, madam.
01:21:57 #2511 Be honest.
01:21:58 #2512 Joyriding plastered or got into some scrape.
01:22:01 #2513 Why don't you admit it instead of accusing innocent people?
01:22:04 #2514 You rough-headed! How dare you talk like that to me?
01:22:07 #2515 Sir, just a little crazy, Mother.
01:22:08 #2516 I can tell you something more.
01:22:09 #2517 I can tell you why they did it.
01:22:11 #2518 They had some kind of a murderer in here, and they were hiding it.
01:22:14 #2519 Hiding it?
01:22:15 #2520 Yeah, I can hear it.
01:22:16 #2521 Madam, you're a cock-eyed liar, and you know it.
01:22:21 #2522 What was that? He's in there.
01:22:23 #2523 Give me the desk. Give me that phone. What a break.
01:22:25 #2524 Stand back, everybody.
01:22:25 #2525 He's not even that young. Get your guns out. He's harmless.
01:22:28 #2526 Don't take any chances. Shoot right through the desk.
01:22:29 #2527 Anybody you've got is gone dear oh dear on your gray head
01:22:38 #2528 Oh Jake hang on healthy called Duffy. No you don't you want to see a scoop in a minute now everybody all the wire aim right at the center
01:22:45 #2529 All right, Carl Frank. What did you get on each end of the day?
01:22:47 #2530 It's coming up. We got you covered Williams have it in a minute. Don't try to move anytime now. I'll count three
01:22:51 #2531 It's hot one ready for an emergency to any second now three up with it
01:22:55 #2532 I got your Williams.
01:22:57 #2533 Go ahead, shoot me.
01:22:58 #2534 Come on, there.
01:22:59 #2535 Earl Williams just captured me in the press room
01:23:01 #2536 in the criminal courts building, hiding in a desk.
01:23:02 #2537 Come on on, you people out, boys.
01:23:04 #2538 Don't try any funny stuff.
01:23:05 #2539 Williams was unconscious when they opened the desk.
01:23:07 #2540 Williams put up a desperate struggle
01:23:08 #2541 by the police over power.
01:23:09 #2542 Alfred, no resistance.
01:23:10 #2543 Right, shoot out with the cops, so these guns wouldn't work.
01:23:11 #2544 Break through a whole court and the police.
01:23:13 #2545 Davy, the morning poof.
01:23:14 #2546 Give me that.
01:23:15 #2547 Turn Williams over to the sheriff.
01:23:16 #2548 Put the cops on these people.
01:23:17 #2549 All of us, no receipt, but the sheriff led to Williams' capture.
01:23:19 #2550 Hold on.
01:23:20 #2551 Sheriff is tracing a mysterious telephone car,
01:23:22 #2552 which gave way to Williams' hiding place.
01:23:23 #2553 Where's the old lady?
01:23:24 #2554 Where'd she go?
01:23:25 #2555 Come back! Come back!
01:23:27 #2556 Hello, Gary. Give me the warden's office.
01:23:38 #2557 You're going to wish you'd never been born.
01:23:40 #2558 How am I?
01:23:42 #2559 Hello, Fred.
01:23:43 #2560 Well, fine work, Pete.
01:23:44 #2561 You're certainly delivered the goods. I'm proud of you.
01:23:46 #2562 You look kind of natural. Don't sight for sore eyes.
01:23:48 #2563 Aiding an escaped criminal.
01:23:49 #2564 And a little charge of kidnapping it.
01:23:51 #2565 What's that?
01:23:52 #2566 That's the jail. Must be somebody there.
01:23:53 #2567 Well, it looks like about ten years apiece for you, two birds.
01:23:56 #2568 Does it?
01:23:57 #2569 If you think you've got the morning post, Lict,
01:23:58 #2570 it's time for you to get out of town.
01:24:00 #2571 Whistling in the dark.
01:24:01 #2572 That ain't gonna help you this time. You're through.
01:24:03 #2573 Listen, the last man who said that to me was Archie Leeds just a week before he cut his throat.
01:24:06 #2574 That's right, sir.
01:24:07 #2575 We've been in worse chance than this, haven't we, Hilda?
01:24:09 #2576 Nope.
01:24:10 #2577 You forget the power that always watches over the morning post, my lord.
01:24:14 #2578 You're not with me now.
01:24:15 #2579 Hello, this is Hartwell.
01:24:16 #2580 That's as you.
01:24:17 #2581 I've caught him.
01:24:18 #2582 Yes, Williams.
01:24:19 #2583 Single-handed.
01:24:20 #2584 We'll proceed with the hanging per schedule.
01:24:21 #2585 You're going to be in office exactly two days more.
01:24:23 #2586 Now we're going to start pulling in another...
01:24:24 #2587 You didn't get the attorney's office.
01:24:25 #2588 I'll tell you what you'll be doing.
01:24:26 #2589 You'll be...
01:24:27 #2590 Well, go on, make a bit more of a...
01:24:28 #2591 Making rooms in the state penitentiary.
01:24:30 #2592 Hello, Joe.
01:24:31 #2593 This is Hartwell.
01:24:32 #2594 I just captured a couple of important birds.
01:24:35 #2595 I want you to take the confession.
01:24:36 #2596 Don't forget, Leibowits.
01:24:38 #2597 All the lawyers in the world are going to help you now.
01:24:40 #2598 Listen, you're talking to the morning post.
01:24:42 #2599 Oh, power of the press.
01:24:43 #2600 Ha-ha-ha-ha.
01:24:45 #2601 Listen, bigger men than you have found out
01:24:47 #2602 what the power of the press is, presidents.
01:24:49 #2603 King, here's the reprieve.
01:24:50 #2604 Say, you...
01:24:51 #2605 Say, get out of here.
01:24:52 #2606 Oh, you can't bribe me. My wife's on this.
01:24:54 #2607 Get out of here, you.
01:24:55 #2608 Oh, no, I won't. Here's the reprieve.
01:24:57 #2609 What?
01:24:58 #2610 I don't want to be a city sealer.
01:24:59 #2611 Where's my wife?
01:25:00 #2612 Throw him out, Frank.
01:25:01 #2613 Just a minute. Who's trying to bribe you?
01:25:03 #2614 They wouldn't take this.
01:25:05 #2615 He's insane.
01:25:06 #2616 What did I tell you? An unseen power.
01:25:07 #2617 What do you mean by coming in here with a cock and bull story like that?
01:25:10 #2618 You can free him up. He's an imposter.
01:25:11 #2619 Arrest him.
01:25:12 #2620 Just a minute. Trying to hang in in this man-win and election, eh?
01:25:14 #2621 That's murder.
01:25:15 #2622 That's a lie. I've never saw him before.
01:25:16 #2623 Who vows to tell my wife...
01:25:18 #2624 What's your name?
01:25:19 #2625 The petty bone. Joe petty bone.
01:25:20 #2626 When did you deliver this first, Mr. Petty Bone?
01:25:22 #2627 What'd you talk to?
01:25:23 #2628 They started right in bribing you.
01:25:24 #2629 Who's they?
01:25:25 #2630 Those. Them.
01:25:26 #2631 That's absurd on the face of it.
01:25:27 #2632 Wanderer is talking like a child.
01:25:28 #2633 Out of the mows of Bay.
01:25:30 #2634 I behave.
01:25:31 #2635 You should say, drunk or something,
01:25:32 #2636 why, if this unfortunate man Williams
01:25:34 #2637 has really been reprieved, I'm personally tickled to death.
01:25:36 #2638 Aren't you, Pete?
01:25:37 #2639 Oh, go on. You'd hang your own mother to be reelected.
01:25:39 #2640 That's a horrible thing to say about anybody, Miss Johnson.
01:25:41 #2641 Oh, you mousel. Stay here.
01:25:43 #2642 Look at that water. You're an intelligent man.
01:25:45 #2643 Never mind that.
01:25:46 #2644 Let's have your story, Mr. Pettibone.
01:25:48 #2645 Well, 19 years ago, I married Mrs. Pettibone.
01:25:50 #2646 Skip all that.
01:25:51 #2647 Well, she was Mrs. Pettibone then.
01:25:53 #2648 No, no, no. She was one of the Jones crew.
01:25:54 #2649 Sheriff, this document is authentic,
01:25:56 #2650 and her Williams has been reprieved.
01:25:58 #2651 And our commonwealth has been saved
01:26:00 #2652 the painful necessity of shedding blood.
01:26:02 #2653 You said it all. Get off the soapbox.
01:26:03 #2654 Say that for the tribute.
01:26:05 #2655 Pete, take those handcuffs off, my friend.
01:26:07 #2656 I'm just going through it. I'm amazed that you're doing a thing like that.
01:26:09 #2657 Isn't he awful?
01:26:10 #2658 Water, you don't know how badly I feel.
01:26:12 #2659 No. No excuse at all for Pete to fly off the handle.
01:26:14 #2660 I was only doing my duty, nothing personal. That's all right, man.
01:26:17 #2661 What'd you say your name was?
01:26:18 #2662 Teddy Polk, wasn't it? Yes.
01:26:19 #2663 Here's a picture of my wife.
01:26:21 #2664 Yeah, a fine-looking woman.
01:26:22 #2665 Because you haven't seen her yet. Yeah, well, she's all right.
01:26:24 #2666 Oh, well, she's good enough for me
01:26:25 #2667 If I was to tell my wife...
01:26:27 #2668 I understand perfectly, Mr. Pettybone.
01:26:29 #2669 And as long as I'm Mayor White...
01:26:31 #2670 It's all to be about three more hours, I'd say.
01:26:33 #2671 Yes, long enough for us to get our special edition,
01:26:34 #2672 asking for your recall.
01:26:36 #2673 And your arrest.
01:26:36 #2674 You know, you little boys ought to get about ten years apiece.
01:26:38 #2675 I think...
01:26:39 #2676 Don't make any hasty decisions, Mr. Burns.
01:26:42 #2677 You might run into a thumping big libel soon.
01:26:44 #2678 You're going to run into the Governor.
01:26:45 #2679 Why, my old friend, the Governor,
01:26:47 #2680 and I understand each other perfectly.
01:26:48 #2681 Yeah, and so do I.
01:26:50 #2682 So do you watch, you hoodoo.
01:26:52 #2683 And now, Mr. Pettybone, if you'll come along with us,
01:26:54 #2684 we'll take you over to the warden's office
01:26:55 #2685 and deliver this reprieve. Come along, Pete.
01:26:57 #2686 Vows to tell my wife you won't have to.
01:27:02 #2687 Wait till those two future jailbirds read the morning poster.
01:27:04 #2688 Tight squeeze, though. Give me Duffie.
01:27:06 #2689 That's the worst jam we've been in a long time.
01:27:08 #2690 What? Well, where is he? Get him.
01:27:10 #2691 Remember the time we stole old lady Haggity's stomach
01:27:12 #2692 off the coroner's physician?
01:27:13 #2693 You're marvelous. Anytime you need this guy, he's never there.
01:27:15 #2694 We proved she'd been poisoned, though, didn't we, Walter?
01:27:17 #2695 Yeah.
01:27:18 #2696 He had to hide out for a week.
01:27:20 #2697 Do you remember that?
01:27:21 #2698 The Charm Hotel that... that's where...
01:27:23 #2699 I mean, how we...
01:27:25 #2700 We could have gone to jail for that too, you know that?
01:27:27 #2701 Oh, yes, maybe you're right, Hildy. It's a bad business.
01:27:30 #2702 Well, you're gonna be better off.
01:27:32 #2703 So you better get going. Where'll I go?
01:27:34 #2704 To Bruce, of course.
01:27:36 #2705 But, you know he's gone. He took the nine-a-cousins.
01:27:38 #2706 I'll just send him a wire. He'll be waiting at the station
01:27:40 #2707 when you get into Albany. Go on.
01:27:42 #2708 What?
01:27:43 #2709 Look, why doesn't that guy have a phone put in there?
01:27:45 #2710 I got some messed up order, maybe...
01:27:46 #2711 Get going, Hildy.
01:27:47 #2712 Get going, get going. What is that with you?
01:27:50 #2713 Wait a minute.
01:27:51 #2714 Now, look, honey, can't you understand?
01:27:53 #2715 I'm trying to do something noble for once in my life.
01:27:55 #2716 Now get out of here before I change my mic.
01:27:56 #2717 Come on, Walter. This is tough enough now.
01:27:58 #2718 Just a minute.
01:27:59 #2719 Send a fellow away. He'll be waiting when you get here.
01:28:01 #2720 I know. Who'll write the story?
01:28:02 #2721 I'll do it myself. Won't be half as good as you can do it.
01:28:04 #2722 But what's the difference?
01:28:04 #2723 It's my story. I'd kind of like to think that it...
01:28:06 #2724 Hello? Oh, it lies, Duffy.
01:28:07 #2725 I get it, Walter. The same old act, isn't it?
01:28:10 #2726 Try to push me out of here thinking I'll be stupid enough to Walter stay.
01:28:13 #2727 No, I know I deserve that, Ellie. Wait a minute, Duffy.
01:28:16 #2728 But this is one time you're wrong.
01:28:17 #2729 Look, honey, when you walk out that door,
01:28:19 #2730 part of me will go right with you.
01:28:21 #2731 But a whole new world's gonna open up for you.
01:28:23 #2732 I made fun of Bruce, Norbanie and all that kind of thing.
01:28:25 #2733 You know why? Why?
01:28:26 #2734 I was jealous.
01:28:28 #2735 I was sore because he could offer you the kind of life
01:28:30 #2736 I can't give you.
01:28:32 #2737 That's what you want, honey?
01:28:33 #2738 I could stay and do the story
01:28:34 #2739 and take the train in the morning.
01:28:35 #2740 Just make that much difference this minute.
01:28:36 #2741 Oh, forget it. Come on. Come on.
01:28:37 #2742 Come on.
01:28:38 #2743 Goodbye, dear, and good luck.
01:28:44 #2744 Oh, Duffy.
01:28:45 #2745 Hello. Now, listen, I'm gonna go so far.
01:28:47 #2746 Oh, just a minute.
01:28:50 #2747 Hello? Who?
01:28:52 #2748 You know, did Johnson? No, she just left.
01:28:53 #2749 I'm still here.
01:28:55 #2750 I can take it.
01:28:56 #2751 Hang on a minute.
01:28:59 #2752 Hilda Johnson speaking.
01:29:02 #2753 The fourth precinct police station.
01:29:04 #2754 We'll put them on.
01:29:06 #2755 Bruce, I thought you were on your way to Albany.
01:29:09 #2756 What for?
01:29:10 #2757 For having counterfeit money.
01:29:12 #2758 Counterfeit money?
01:29:14 #2759 Hold on a minute, Duffy.
01:29:16 #2760 Well, where did you get it?
01:29:17 #2761 I gave it to you.
01:29:20 #2762 Oh, all right.
01:29:21 #2763 I'll try and do something about it.
01:29:34 #2764 Oh, honey.
01:29:36 #2765 Honey, don't cry, please.
01:29:38 #2766 Oh, come on, I didn't mean to make you cry.
01:29:40 #2767 Honey, what's the matter with you?
01:29:41 #2768 You never cried before.
01:29:43 #2769 Really?
01:29:44 #2770 I thought you were really sending me away with Bruce.
01:29:49 #2771 I didn't know you had him locked up.
01:29:52 #2772 I thought you were on the level for once.
01:29:55 #2773 I thought you were just standing by and letting me go off
01:29:59 #2774 without us not doing a thing about it.
01:30:02 #2775 Oh, come on, honey.
01:30:03 #2776 What do you think I was, a chump?
01:30:04 #2777 I thought you didn't love me.
01:30:07 #2778 What are you thinking?
01:30:09 #2779 I don't know.
01:30:11 #2780 What is Daddy there gawking for?
01:30:14 #2781 We have to get him out of jail.
01:30:16 #2782 Send Louis down with some honest money.
01:30:19 #2783 Send him back to Albany where he belong.
01:30:21 #2784 Sure, sure.
01:30:23 #2785 Nothing. Everything's changed.
01:30:24 #2786 Tell Louis to stand by. We're coming over the office.
01:30:26 #2787 Don't worry about the story. Hillary's going to write it.
01:30:29 #2788 Of course she's not quitting. She never intended to.
01:30:31 #2789 We're going to get married.
01:30:32 #2790 Can we go on a honeymoon this time?
01:30:34 #2791 Sure. Hey, Duffy, you can be married together this.
01:30:38 #2792 No, no, not permanently, just for the two weeks we're away on the honeymoon.
01:30:41 #2793 What?
01:30:42 #2794 I don't know where we're going. Where are we going?
01:30:44 #2795 Niagara Falls.
01:30:45 #2796 Niagara Falls, Duffy.
01:30:46 #2797 Two whole weeks, Walter.
01:30:48 #2798 Sure, you've earned it.
01:30:49 #2799 But...
01:30:50 #2800 What?
01:30:51 #2801 Stripe?
01:30:52 #2802 What stripe?
01:30:54 #2803 Where?
01:30:55 #2804 Albany?
01:30:56 #2805 Well, I know it's on the way, Duffy, but I can't ask you to...
01:30:59 #2806 I don't know. I'm Albany.
01:31:00 #2807 Okay, Duffy.
01:31:01 #2808 Well, isn't that a quiz?
01:31:03 #2809 We've got a lot of Albany.
01:31:04 #2810 I wonder if Bruce can put us up.
01:31:05 #2811 Why don't you carry that in your hair?
