00:07:43♪♪
00:07:48Hello, sir.
00:07:51I will inquire, sir.
00:07:54Mr. Hunt.
00:07:57That's to say they're not coming.
00:08:03Hello, Hunt.
00:08:05How are you?
00:08:11Oh, my dear sir, I shall be delighted.
00:08:15Huh?
00:08:16Oh, by all means.
00:08:19Yes.
00:08:20Splendid.
00:08:21Splendid.
00:08:30What is it?
00:08:31Aren't they coming?
00:08:32Worse.
00:08:33What can be worse?
00:08:34They're coming for dinner.
00:08:36We have half a bologna, sir.
00:08:39A bottle of pickles and a head.
00:08:40Joseph, I can do it.
00:08:51Look in that bag.
00:08:55Is there a checkbook in it?
00:09:01Daddy, I won't let you do this.
00:09:03Right.
00:09:04Am I to lose millions for the business for the price of a tuck-me-hate-me meal?
00:09:07Come on, now.
00:09:08Come on.
00:09:10They can't cash it until tomorrow.
00:09:12But they won't take it.
00:09:14Oh, won't they?
00:09:15Won't they?
00:09:17Do you know what they'll say?
00:09:19Good evening, Mr. Gilbert.
00:09:21Good evening, Mr. Gilbert.
00:09:24Good evening, Mr. Gilbert.
00:09:26Good evening, Mr. Gilbert.
00:09:27Evening.
00:09:28Evening, Mr. Gilbert.
00:09:29Evening.
00:09:30Good evening, Mr. Gilbert.
00:09:31How are you?
00:09:32Good evening, Mr. Gilbert.
00:09:33Evening.
00:09:34Ah, Mr. Gilbert, good evening, sir.
00:09:36I am delighted to see you here.
00:09:37That's very nice of you.
00:09:39Tell me, how are things with you?
00:09:40Well, not too good, I'm afraid, sir.
00:09:42Oh, I'm sorry about that.
00:09:43Not very many customers like yourself around now.
00:09:45People don't seem to care what they eat as long as they eat something.
00:09:49Now, that's a bad habit, isn't it?
00:09:50Well, I suppose you've all got to suffer from the world crisis?
00:09:52I suppose so.
00:09:53I'm suffering from a little crisis of my own, it brings me.
00:09:55A kitchen crisis.
00:09:56Indeed, sir.
00:09:57Yes, my cook's mother is terribly ill.
00:09:59Sadly, I've got some people coming to dinner.
00:10:01Hurry up, Mr. Robson.
00:10:02Bring some caviar, Mr. Gilbert.
00:10:03Do you have some caviar?
00:10:04Some red caviar, please.
00:10:05Great, thank you.
00:10:06Yes, yes, yes.
00:10:07And some vodka.
00:10:08And also, Mr. Gilbert.
00:10:09Yes, I have turtle soup.
00:10:10And also, Mr. Gilbert, some salmon.
00:10:12As a matter of fact, I've had an awful lot of salmon lately.
00:10:14Very nice salmon, Mr. Gilbert.
00:10:15Too big, you know.
00:10:16Very nice.
00:10:17What are the smaller fish?
00:10:18Some fish trout.
00:10:19Fish trout.
00:10:20Splendid.
00:10:21Beautiful trout.
00:10:22Mr. Gilbert.
00:10:23Yes, all right.
00:10:24I'll buy British one of those.
00:10:25Yes.
00:10:26Yes, Mr. Hines.
00:10:27Give me that chair.
00:10:28Yes, sir.
00:10:29What do you mean?
00:10:30Oh, and I tell you what.
00:10:31You might just send me up a box of cigars, will you?
00:10:33You know those ones I used to have, those specials?
00:10:34They were very good.
00:10:35Very good.
00:10:36Yes, thank you.
00:10:37How much is all that altogether?
00:10:38Mr. Robson, how much is Mr. Gilbert's account?
00:10:41£12.19, sir.
00:10:43£17.19, she links in all.
00:10:46In all, with the cigars?
00:10:47Correct.
00:10:48Well, I think that's very cheap.
00:10:49Very cheap indeed.
00:10:50£17.19 is...
00:10:54I say, I won't be sorry.
00:10:56I come out without any ready money, to be of me.
00:10:59I'll have to write you a cheque.
00:11:00Do you want a pen?
00:11:01I can have for a moment.
00:11:02Oh, thank you so much.
00:11:03Thanks awfully.
00:11:04Let's see.
00:11:05What's today?
00:11:06Today's the 1st, isn't it?
00:11:08How much do you say the amount's for?
00:11:10£17.19.
00:11:13I'll write you a cheque for £20, yes?
00:11:16The round sum saves us a lot of trouble, doesn't it?
00:11:19Give me the change.
00:11:21There we are.
00:11:23Thank you so much.
00:11:31Thanks.
00:11:36Thanks.
00:11:47Your change, sir.
00:11:48Oh, thanks awfully.
00:11:49And I hope your cook's mother will soon be better.
00:11:53My cook's mother?
00:11:55I understood you to say she was ill.
00:11:57Oh, oh, yes.
00:11:58I expect she's dead by now, couldn't I?
00:12:00Thank you so much.
00:12:01Now, this is the house with a pretty daughter, eh?
00:12:04And you can't get any money out of it.
00:12:06Can't even get in the house.
00:12:09Yes.
00:12:10I'll show you how to get in the house.
00:12:12You watch me.
00:12:27Telegram for Mr Gilbert.
00:12:30Ha!
00:12:49Electricity bill.
00:12:51£14.17.
00:12:53And nonsense.
00:12:55You'll be paid tomorrow.
00:12:57I'll be paid this minute, or I'll cut off the lights.
00:13:00But we have guests for dinner.
00:13:03We'll have it for our candles.
00:13:06Well?
00:13:07You going to pay?
00:13:09Right.
00:13:12Now then, Mr upper class.
00:13:14I'm going to leave you here for a bit while I'm about to make a few more calls.
00:13:18I'll meet you around the corner in ten minutes.
00:13:20Yes, and not so much of your sex appeal.
00:13:24Oh, she may be Greta Garbo or Marjorie Dietrich.
00:13:28But you cut off her lights.
00:13:30You see what I mean?
00:13:39I'm sorry.
00:13:44I'm awfully sorry.
00:13:45I'm afraid I must go down to the cellar.
00:13:47Could I have a candle?
00:13:48I will make inquiries, sir.
00:14:04Cigarette?
00:14:07Thanks.
00:14:14Thanks.
00:14:20Want a cigarette?
00:14:21Thanks.
00:14:24Dreadful weather.
00:14:26So dark.
00:14:28Quite.
00:14:29So faint.
00:14:30I expected a candle.
00:14:32It's coming, sir.
00:14:34Not for me, Joseph.
00:14:42Are you very interested in your work?
00:14:44Not in the least.
00:14:45Then why do you do it?
00:14:46Oh, one has to begin.
00:14:48You're beginning very well.
00:14:50What are you interested in?
00:14:52Oh, a number of things.
00:14:54Mayn't I know?
00:14:56Certainly.
00:14:57I'm very interested in you.
00:14:59In me?
00:15:00Why?
00:15:01Because you're so interested in me.
00:15:03You usually entertain workmen in your drawing room.
00:15:08Any objections?
00:15:09Not in the least.
00:15:10I think it's delightful.
00:15:11I've been waiting for this.
00:15:12Waiting?
00:15:13Yes, exactly three months.
00:15:15What do you mean, exactly three months?
00:15:17Well, three months ago...
00:15:20Well, uh...
00:15:24The electricity bill was not paid.
00:15:26And you came to explain.
00:15:30Hadn't you better go and do what you came here for?
00:15:33Are you so anxious for me to turn off the light?
00:15:35No.
00:15:38Not if you haven't finished talking about yourself.
00:15:40Not quite.
00:15:41It's my favorite subject.
00:15:42Go ahead.
00:15:44What are your ambitions?
00:15:46Can you guess the immediate ambition of my life?
00:15:48Mm-hmm, probably.
00:15:49Something I want more than anything in the world.
00:15:51I wouldn't try it if I were you.
00:15:53What, to kiss you?
00:15:54Oh, no, it's not that.
00:15:55You know what it is?
00:15:56What?
00:15:57To sock that inspector in the jaw.
00:15:59Why don't you?
00:16:00To give me a thousand pounds in the world.
00:16:02Is that all?
00:16:03Yes, all the difference between success and failure.
00:16:05With a thousand pounds, I could be my own master.
00:16:07Perhaps the master of other people.
00:16:11I have the gift of leadership.
00:16:13In the meantime, behold the humble electrician.
00:16:15You're not really going to turn the light off, are you?
00:16:18You've got people coming here for dinner.
00:16:20Who are they?
00:16:21Really?
00:16:22Is it any of your business?
00:16:23Tutors?
00:16:24No, a couple of Gary's rich friends.
00:16:26Oh, a couple of crooks.
00:16:27Businessmen.
00:16:28Well, what's the difference?
00:16:29What's the difference?
00:16:30Why, all the difference in the world.
00:16:32Yes, I'll tell you what the difference is.
00:16:33The business crook gets away with it every time.
00:16:35The ordinary crook never does.
00:16:36Like that poor devil I told you about.
00:16:38I'll tell you what the difference is.
00:16:40The business crook gets away with it every time.
00:16:41The ordinary crook never does.
00:16:42Like that poor devil I saw trying to escape in the tube today.
00:16:45What was he, I think?
00:16:46Probably one of the three million unemployed.
00:16:48Like me, if I don't turn that current off.
00:16:50Oh, you're not really going to turn that light off, are you?
00:16:52Sorry, I must.
00:16:53Oh, but I won't let you.
00:17:00What's that?
00:17:05Thousand dollar notes.
00:17:10Oh, they're yours?
00:17:11Well.
00:17:12Well, whose are they?
00:17:13I haven't the faintest idea.
00:17:14Of course.
00:17:15The thief in the underground.
00:17:16He must have put it into my bag.
00:17:17Let's count it.
00:17:19One, two, three, four, five.
00:17:2030.
00:17:2135.
00:17:2235.
00:17:2310.
00:17:2445.

00:17:2755 and 66 and 67.
00:17:2958 and 59 and 60.
00:17:3170.
00:17:32100.
00:17:34$100,000.
00:17:35$100,000.
00:17:36And then you had a good one.
00:17:38I had a good one.
00:17:39One, two, three, four.
00:17:4010, 11.
00:17:4112.
00:17:4219.
00:17:4320.
00:17:4421, 22, 22.
00:17:4523.
00:17:4624.
00:17:47$1,000.
00:17:57That's for a person, mister.
00:18:01A person, where's he been going, eh?
00:18:03I thought I told you not to much of your sex appeal.
00:18:05What about them blinking lights, eh?
00:18:07Mr. Maurice Chimelier.
00:18:17Very pretty, very pretty indeed, sir.
00:18:20What?
00:18:21Meet me, would ya?
00:18:22I'll show ya.
00:18:26Now will there be anything else for me, sir?
00:18:39You're having a lovely time, aren't you?
00:18:40Don't be so condescending, you know you liked it.
00:18:42You must be mad.
00:18:43Of course I am mad, stark, staring mad, I'm rich!
00:18:46But it's not your money.
00:18:47Well, it seems as it is, I'll take you to the police
00:18:48and claim the reward, $10,000.
00:18:51Well, I, that fellow's cut off the current.
00:18:53Where's the torch?
00:18:54The torch, oh, I'll go and look for it.
00:18:56No you won't, I know this place and you don't
00:18:58and you'll hit your head on something.
00:18:59Oh, of course I won't, don't be silly.
00:19:00Oh!
00:19:01What?
00:19:02There you are, I told you, didn't I?
00:19:05Hey!
00:19:06Hey, what's the matter?
00:19:08Hey, that's not a chair, that's me you've got there.
00:19:10Is it really?
00:19:11Yes, it is.
00:19:12I'm beginning to like that, Inspector.
00:19:14Pardon me, miss, that person has turned off the lights.
00:19:18Oh, Joseph, and we've got those men coming to dinner.
00:19:21We're ruined.
00:19:21Oh, not a bit of it, hunty.
00:19:22In the morning again.
00:19:23Take me down to the cellar, Joseph, will you?
00:19:25Joseph, wait a moment.
00:19:30Give me the candle, Joseph.
00:19:45What's the matter with the lights?
00:19:47They've been turned off, sir.
00:19:49Turned off?
00:19:51Who do you think had the colossal nerve to turn my lights off?
00:19:54The Inspector, sir.
00:19:55The Inspector?
00:19:57He ought to have been sucked on the jaw.
00:19:59He was, sir.
00:20:00Oh, good, I'm glad of that.
00:20:02One, two, one, two, and again, one, two, three, four.
00:20:06Ah, here we are, the cellar.
00:20:08Now, what's the matter with the lights?
00:20:09They've been turned off, sir.
00:20:11Turned off?
00:20:13Ah, here we are, the cellar.
00:20:14Now I feel quite at home.
00:20:29Do you know, you look marvelous by candlelight.
00:20:32Oh, I don't look at all bad by electricity.
00:20:35Oh.
00:20:42Oh, it's better.
00:21:12Come on, let's go.
00:21:42Hello.
00:21:43What in heaven's name is all this?
00:21:46Oh, that's the electrician's, he found it.
00:21:48In this house?
00:21:49No, darling.
00:21:51Oh.
00:21:51By the way, Mr. Martin, my father.
00:21:53How do you do?
00:21:54How do you do, Mr. Martin?
00:21:57Tell me, tell me, what are you going to do
00:21:59with all this money?
00:22:00Well, we're going to take it to the police, darling.
00:22:03Police?
00:22:03Yes, and claim the reward.
00:22:09Now, sit down, my darling.
00:22:10Now, my dear fellow, have a cigar.
00:22:13No.
00:22:14Well, then, have a cigarette.
00:22:16Eh, no?
00:22:17Now, tell me, as one business man to another,
00:22:20will you lend me this money till tomorrow morning?
00:22:22No.
00:22:23But you can take it to the police in the morning,
00:22:25as you know my word of honor.
00:22:26No.
00:22:28My dear boy, do you know what that really is?
00:22:31Of course I do, $100,000.
00:22:32$100,000.
00:22:35$100 million.
00:22:37Why, it's in cash, my boy, cash.
00:22:40Real money that you can show.
00:22:43You know, stuff that makes the world go round.
00:22:45Stuff all the great powers are starving for.
00:22:47Great powers, ha.
00:22:49There's only one great power in all the world,
00:22:51and that's it, my boy, that's it, cash.
00:22:53Cash, cash, cash.
00:22:55No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:22:58In the right hands, there's no knowing where it might be.
00:23:01Exactly, that's why I'm going to stick to it.
00:23:02Now, my dear, there's nothing doing, Mr. Gilbert.
00:23:04I'm not going to let you spend my money.
00:23:05Oh, who said spend it?
00:23:07Invest it then.
00:23:08A penny of it, not a penny.
00:23:10Look here, I've got a couple of business friends
00:23:11coming to dinner tonight.
00:23:12I just want to show it to them.
00:23:14No.
00:23:15Oh, I just want its presence.
00:23:18You know, so they could see it and feel it and smell it.
00:23:27No.
00:23:31Oh.
00:23:32Oh, Mr. Martin, couldn't you spare it
00:23:34till 10.30 tonight?
00:23:35I'm sorry, but you see, I can't bear
00:23:37to let it out of my sight.
00:23:40There you are, Daddy.
00:23:42If you want the money here, you'll have to have him too.
00:23:46My dear, but dine with us, of course, dine with us.
00:23:49You can let the money out of your hand, you know.
00:23:51Oh, please, Mr. Martin.
00:23:52Right, I will.
00:23:54Good.
00:23:55On one condition.
00:23:56Anything you suggest.
00:23:57I share in the resulting business.
00:23:59Well, of course, the usual brokerage commission.
00:24:00What's that?
00:24:01An 8%.
00:24:02I'm not a businessman, that's what you mean, 50-50.
00:24:04Well, I didn't, but I think you did.
00:24:06All right, 50-50.
00:24:08All right, 50-50.
00:24:09Right, now, what time's dinner?
00:24:10Come back as soon as you're dressed.
00:24:12Can you, I beg your pardon, I mean,
00:24:14have you a dinner jacket?
00:24:15I've got the ticket, I'll go and get it.
00:24:17You're not gonna take that money with you into the streets.
00:24:19Oh, I can take care of it.
00:24:20But you might lose it.
00:24:21Okay, why not put it in a safe?
00:24:23You can take away the keys.
00:24:24You're saying I lose the keys?
00:24:25Well, I've got another one.
00:24:27No.
00:24:28As a working man to a businessman,
00:24:31I prefer to take the money.
00:24:33Goodbye.
00:24:36Goodbye.
00:24:49Well, Jeck, he hasn't got away with it this time.
00:24:51No sir, we got him all right this time.
00:24:52All right, Graham, sit down there with her for a minute.
00:24:56I want a policeman.
00:24:58What for?
00:24:59What for?
00:25:00See that?
00:25:02And Joseph?
00:25:03Yes, sir?
00:25:04When Mr. Hunter and Mr. Myer arrive, I want you to announce dinner.
00:25:07Yes, sir.
00:25:09And see that they get plenty of champagne.
00:25:10Yes, sir.
00:25:11You know, keep on filling up their glasses. Don't wait till they ask for it.
00:25:13I know, sir.
00:25:15There they are.
00:25:17Judith.
00:25:18The door.
00:25:19Newt.
00:25:20Very dignified.
00:25:23And me.
00:25:34The electricians.
00:25:58Oh, it's you.
00:26:00Oh, it's you.
00:26:02You've still got it.
00:26:03Oh, yes. Oh, good.
00:26:05Well, you know, look here.
00:26:06All I want you to do is just shove it under their noses
00:26:09when I give them a tip, you see?
00:26:10You don't have to say a word.
00:26:12Just show it to them. See what I mean?
00:26:14Of course.
00:26:15Well, come on, show me.
00:26:16Show me. Do it.
00:26:17Oh, let's see what you're going to do.
00:26:19Come on, now. With confidence.
00:26:22Oh, buck up, my boy, buck up. Don't fumble like that.
00:26:26Oh, not a bit like it, you know.
00:26:27Anyone will think it was somebody else's money.
00:26:30What are you doing with this thing?
00:26:31How can you expect to inspire confidence
00:26:33with a comic wallet like this?
00:26:35You know, what you want is the American touch.
00:26:37Slick.
00:26:38All right, then.
00:26:40Have it your own way.
00:26:42I suppose I'd better get off my phone
00:26:44and cancel the engagement.
00:26:46Help.
00:26:48Help.
00:26:51Don't do that.
00:26:52Yes, you did. You buzzed twice in my ear.
00:26:55Give me a quibble. Four-five.
00:26:57Four-four.
00:26:59Just like that.
00:27:00Come on, be careful.
00:27:01Four-four.
00:27:02Four-four.
00:27:03Four-four.
00:27:04Four-four.
00:27:05Four-four.
00:27:07Four-four.
00:27:08Four-four.
00:27:09Four-four.
00:27:10Four-four.
00:27:11Four-four.
00:27:12Four-four.
00:27:13Four-four.
00:27:14Four-four.
00:27:15There you go, son.
00:27:16Don't go on.
00:27:17Don't go on.
00:27:20I say...
00:27:21do you remember those quails we had
00:27:23when we floated Gilbert's consolidated?
00:27:25Shall I ever forget what that quail cost me?
00:27:28What a bird.
00:27:31Hello.
00:27:33Is that you, Gilbert?
00:27:35Yes, this is Hunt speaking.
00:27:36I say, I'm very sorry.
00:27:38I'm afraid we shalln't be able to get over it tonight.
00:27:40No, we're rather busy.
00:27:42We're having a snack here with Mr. Jordan in the office.
00:27:47I'll see you later, then.
00:27:49Who was that, Eddie?
00:27:50Hunt. He's not coming till after dinner.
00:27:52He's dining with Jordan.
00:27:54Oh, terrible.
00:27:55What's terrible about it? I can eat Mr. Hunt's dinner.
00:27:57Oh, my dear girl, you don't know what you're talking about!
00:28:01When you're doing big business, a man who's had a good dinner will eat out of your hand.
00:28:06Do you know where a businessman's brains are?
00:28:09In his stomach.
00:28:10Talk business to him over tea, and what happens?
00:28:13Indigestion. Can't even sign his name.
00:28:15Talk it over turtle soup, and the argument goes home.
00:28:19Talk it over a blue trout, and every mouthful is a point going to the right place.
00:28:24Talk it over a pheasant and a bottle of champagne,
00:28:27and a man will sign away his birthright with every swallow.
00:28:29Dinner is served, sir.
00:28:33Take it away!
00:28:34Oh, my dear, I'm starving.
00:28:36There's dinner for five!
00:28:38I know, and Hunt's able to eat dinner for five.
00:28:41He's dining with Mr. Jordan.
00:28:42Yes, that's why. You don't know Jordan.
00:28:45He's a vegetarian.
00:28:48Nibbled nuts.
00:28:58No, no, come on, quick. Now sit down there, dear.
00:29:00Very dignified, please. Have a glass of champagne.
00:29:02Here, come on, Martin. A glass of champagne, my boy.
00:29:04Champagne, don't be afraid of it.
00:29:07Now sit down, my boy. Now hold it like I do, please.
00:29:09Very, very dignified. Very dignified.
00:29:12Ready?
00:29:13They've not finished dinner yet, have they, Joseph?
00:29:15I'm afraid so, sir.
00:29:17Oh, well.
00:29:20What kind of a dinner was it, Joseph?
00:29:22It was a very nice dinner, sir.
00:29:24Was it?
00:29:25It was a marvelous dinner, sir.
00:29:27What was it?
00:29:28Caviar.
00:29:29Red caviar.
00:29:31Borch.
00:29:32What?
00:29:33A soup, a borch.
00:29:34Crab blue, peasant.
00:29:36A bon surprise.
00:29:38And a saw bit.
00:29:40A saw what, Joseph?
00:29:42A bit, sir.
00:29:43Don't tell me any more. You'll break my heart.
00:29:49Mr. Hunt.
00:29:51Oh, Hunt, my dear fellow.
00:29:54Good evening.
00:29:55How are you?
00:29:56Delighted to see you. You know my girl, don't you?
00:29:58Good evening, Miss Lillian.
00:29:59Good evening, Mr. Hunt.
00:30:00You don't know Mr. Martin, do you?
00:30:02Nay, I've not had that pleasure.
00:30:04How do you do?
00:30:05Oh, he's a great chap.
00:30:07You'll get to know him very well later on.
00:30:11Well, come to the study for a tick, will you?
00:30:13Study?
00:30:14Yes, the...
00:30:15Oh, you have a drink in there.
00:30:17Yes, yes, yes.
00:30:18Go on. How's your wife?
00:30:19She's very well, thank you.
00:30:20All right. Any kids?
00:30:21Well, well, they've got their restantials.
00:30:23Oh, is that all?
00:30:24Oh, that was it about that one.
00:30:26Come in.
00:30:27Hello.
00:30:28There we are.
00:30:33Ahem.
00:30:37Ah.
00:30:38Say, Winnow.
00:30:39There's no win at all.
00:30:41I've had dinner with Jordan.
00:30:43Oh, we'll have another.
00:30:44What?
00:30:45Dinner, eh?
00:30:46Ha, ha, ha.
00:30:47Trout or pheasant?
00:30:49Trout and pheasant.
00:30:51Oh.
00:30:53Joseph, just bring a little trout and pheasant on the tray for Mr. Hunt, will you?
00:30:57Very good, sir.
00:30:59Hmm.
00:31:00Tell me, is, uh, Maya coming?
00:31:02Maya?
00:31:03Hmm.
00:31:04No, I'm sorry, eh, can I come?
00:31:06Good.
00:31:07What, sir?
00:31:08We can cut Mr. Maya right out of this business.
00:31:11Oh.
00:31:12Hmm.
00:31:13Ha, ha.
00:31:14Ha, ha.
00:31:15Ha, ha.
00:31:20Father, I...
00:31:21Oh, what a shock.
00:31:22Oh, I beg your pardon.
00:31:23I beg your pardon.
00:31:24You were on. You were going to say something.
00:31:26No, I wasn't.
00:31:27But you spoke.
00:31:28Yes, but I wasn't going to say anything.
00:31:29Oh, please, Mr. Martin.
00:31:31No, really, Miss Gilbert, I...
00:31:33I'm no good at making conversation.
00:31:36Oh, but Mr. Martin, you were so interesting just now,
00:31:39when you were talking about Mr. Martin.
00:31:42Oh, yes, Miss Gilbert, but then you see,
00:31:45now I'd so much rather talk about Miss Gilbert.
00:31:48Ha, ha.
00:31:49No, but seriously, Mr. Martin,
00:31:51Miss Gilbert and father are very grateful to you.
00:31:53Oh, really?
00:31:54Whatever for?
00:31:55Oh, for giving us back the light for one thing.
00:31:58Ah, thank you, Mr. Martin.
00:32:00Aye.
00:32:07There we are.
00:32:11Thanks, George.
00:32:12I'm sorry it's not as good as George's.
00:32:16I say, that one's rather anemic, isn't he?
00:32:18Must have gone off to Goldstein.
00:32:21You're not really interested in goldfish, are you?
00:32:23Goldfish? Oh, no, no.
00:32:24Gold... Oh, no.
00:32:25Oh, flowers. Flowers, yes.
00:32:27I'm very interested in...
00:32:30In flowers. Shall we look at the flowers?
00:32:33Ah, well.
00:32:34Now then, what about this scheme of yours?
00:32:37Well, you know that site at the Marble Arch?
00:32:40Aye, best site in London.
00:32:42Well...
00:32:44I've got a great idea.
00:32:46Nay, nay, laddie, we're businessmen, we are.
00:32:49We're not interested in ideas.
00:32:51Do you remember what happened to that theatre, ideas?
00:32:54Who said theatre, eh?
00:32:57Well, then, what is the idea?
00:32:59A restaurant?
00:33:01A restaurant.
00:33:03No.
00:33:06A swimming pool.
00:33:09Yes.
00:33:10Now, at this point, I propose to call in my business partner.
00:33:13Certainly, ask him, Edward.
00:33:16I think Paul is a charming name.
00:33:18Do you really, Miss Lillian?
00:33:20Yes, Paul.
00:33:22Lillian!
00:33:24Mr. Martin!
00:33:32You've met Mr. Hunt, haven't you?
00:33:34Yes.
00:33:40You'll excuse me eating, won't you? I'm a bit hungry, lad.
00:33:43I've just been outlining to Mr. Hunt our proposition for a swimming pool.
00:33:47Not just an ordinary swimming pool, of course.
00:33:49No, no, no.
00:33:50A super swimming pool, with concrete, sand, air, sun,
00:33:55artificial waves, ultraviolet rays, refreshments, dancing,
00:33:59open day and night, two bands playing continuously,
00:34:02talking films, radio broadcasting.
00:34:04And all in bathing suits.
00:34:07That's the idea.
00:34:08Health, beauty and sex appeal at popular prices.
00:34:11A triumph of technique.
00:34:13A miracle of organisation.
00:34:14Floating boys with telephones.
00:34:16Marriages and divorces on the roof garden.
00:34:18Free advice to mothers in the Turkish bar.
00:34:20And the whole thing to be called...
00:34:22Eternal Spring.
00:34:24It's champion.
00:34:26It's grand.
00:34:29Aye, it's a pity there isn't any brass about.
00:34:31Fight depression with optimism and you will find us plenty.
00:34:34Plenty?
00:34:36Now, we propose to form a company with a capital of...
00:34:39$100,000.
00:34:41Why dollars?
00:34:43Oh, my business partner invariably deals in dollars.
00:34:46Fancy.
00:34:47No, no, no, reality.
00:34:49Yes.
00:34:50Matter of fact, Mr. Martin and I have already subscribed
00:34:52three quarters of the shares.
00:34:54Some $75,000.
00:34:56Yes.
00:34:57Oh, by the way, Martin, you happen to have the money on you?
00:35:17Cash.
00:35:19Cash.
00:35:22Cash.
00:35:29A swimming pool.
00:35:31A super swimming pool.
00:35:34Artificial waves.
00:35:35Two bands in bathing costumes.
00:35:38Health, beauty and sex appeal at popular prices.
00:35:44Aye.
00:35:46I take 25 percent.
00:35:4925 percent?
00:35:52Oh, I say, my dear Hunt, isn't...
00:35:55Isn't that a bit too much for you?
00:35:57Hmm?
00:35:58In these hard times?
00:36:0025 percent?
00:36:02Well, I'll do my best for you as an old friend, you know, but...
00:36:05I shall speak to my partner about it, you understand that...
00:36:07Sir, excuse us a minute, won't you, eh?
00:36:09Mr. Martin, just a minute, will you?
00:36:10Yes.
00:36:11Doctor, I know 25 percent is a great deal to ask, but...
00:36:14Well, Hunt is a very old friend.
00:36:16Yes.
00:36:30London Wall, 0559.
00:36:330559.
00:36:36Well?
00:36:37Well, Hunt, you're an old friend.
00:36:39I persuaded Martin to let you come in.
00:36:41That's grand of you, then.
00:36:43Not at all.
00:36:44I do appreciate that.
00:36:45Not at all.
00:36:46Greatly.
00:36:47Tell me.
00:36:48Yes?
00:36:49Who's going to be your managing director?
00:36:51Well, I am.
00:36:525,000 a year.
00:36:53Then who is your chairman?
00:36:55You are.
00:36:56At 2,000.
00:37:01Well, I'll be your managing director.
00:37:04Hi.
00:37:06Yes, you're right.
00:37:08Now then, we'll issue 500,000 present shares.
00:37:11We will.
00:37:12And the public will simply fight to get them.
00:37:14They will.
00:37:15They will.
00:37:16By the way, just let me ring Meyer up, will you?
00:37:21You're not going to sell him any of your shares?
00:37:23No, I shan't, sir.
00:37:24Well, what do you want him for, then?
00:37:25Well, he's a very old friend of mine.
00:37:27Oh, no, I don't know.
00:37:29Oh, no, I don't know.
00:37:31Huh?
00:37:32What is it?
00:37:33Huh?
00:37:34Shall we?
00:37:36Huh?
00:37:37All right.
00:37:38All right.
00:37:39Ring him up.
00:37:40Ring him up.
00:37:41Thanks.
00:37:42Thanks, old lad.
00:37:43Thanks very much indeed.
00:37:44Not at all.
00:37:45Not at all.
00:37:470559.
00:37:49Nine.
00:37:53A little point of business etiquette, my boy.
00:37:55To leave a man alone when he wants to discuss something
00:37:58with his partner.
00:37:59Oh, I see.
00:38:00I'm not a businessman, of course.
00:38:01No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:38:02But, uh, I am.
00:38:09I am.
00:38:18Hello.
00:38:20Is that you, Meyer?
00:38:26Listen, you have to come right over at once.
00:38:28We've got a great idea.
00:38:31That old scheme of Gilbert's?
00:38:33Oh, no, it isn't an old scheme.
00:38:35It's a new sensation.
00:38:37You haven't subscribed?
00:38:38Yes, I have.
00:38:40Fool.
00:38:41Idiot.
00:38:42What did I tell you?
00:38:43He's subscribed.
00:38:45$25,000.
00:38:47$25,000.
00:38:49You must be mad.
00:38:50He's subscribed.
00:38:51$25,000.
00:38:53Probably intoxicated.
00:38:54Listen, Hunt, are you still there?
00:38:56I tell you, I've seen it.
00:38:58Several $100,000 in hard cash.
00:39:01This is the cash.
00:39:03What did I say?
00:39:04He's subscribed.
00:39:05Did you see it with your own eyes?
00:39:08My own eyes?
00:39:09Did you count it?
00:39:10No, he wouldn't let me.
00:39:13Did you examine it closely?
00:39:15Closely?
00:39:17Of course I examined it closely.
00:39:19Why don't you come over and look for yourself?
00:39:23Oh, finished?
00:39:24Yes, thanks very much.
00:39:25Ah, good.
00:39:26I don't reckon he'll come over somehow.
00:39:28No?
00:39:29No, it didn't seem very interesting.
00:39:31Oh, well, we can get ahead without him, eh?
00:39:33$100,000 on the table.
00:39:37To stay away from that, it wouldn't be human.
00:39:40I tell you what, Mr. Jordan, I'll phone you.
00:39:42No, don't do that.
00:39:44I'm going home.
00:39:45$100,000.
00:39:47On the table.
00:39:51Do you know where she is now, do you, sir?
00:39:53Probably upstairs in the morning room, sir.
00:39:55Shall I ask her to come down?
00:39:57Oh, no.
00:40:05Watch your step, sir.
00:40:17Oh, no.
00:40:47Oh, no.
00:41:17Where have you been?
00:41:39Nowhere in particular.
00:41:40Looking for anyone in particular?
00:41:42No, just amusing myself wandering around.
00:41:44Those great financiers do amuse themselves sometimes.
00:41:47Yes, very occasionally.
00:41:48We relax a bit.
00:41:49Do you play polo?
00:41:50Never.
00:41:51One meets just awful people.
00:41:52I know.
00:41:53I can't ride either.
00:41:55The sort of people who do nothing but run round after silly girls.
00:41:58Very good exercise.
00:42:00I prefer shooting.
00:42:02Peasants?
00:42:03People.
00:42:04You're not a murderer, are you?
00:42:05Not yet, but I'd like to be.
00:42:07Thinking of killing anyone in particular?
00:42:09Yes, the sort of ass who wears a monocle.
00:42:15You see?
00:42:16Mr. Meyer, sir.
00:42:17Eh?
00:42:18Oh, well, my dear Meyer, this is a pleasant surprise.
00:42:21You're just in time.
00:42:22I hope so.
00:42:23But how deep is my partner in this business?
00:42:25Up to the neck.
00:42:26In the Eternal Spring Company.
00:42:28The biggest proposition of the century.
00:42:30You need never worry about him again.
00:42:31A super swimming pool with sex appeal.
00:42:33And advice to mothers.
00:42:35Beauty and body oil.
00:42:36Films while you float, drinks while you dry,
00:42:38and music with your manicure.
00:42:40That's right.
00:42:41Now, just listen.
00:42:42Very nice, very nice.
00:42:43But I would like a word with you alone now.
00:42:46Oh, certainly, my dear fellow.
00:42:48Of course.
00:42:50Of course.
00:42:55Really, Mr. Martin.
00:42:56I fail to see why you should sulk for ten minutes
00:42:59just because I happen to have a nephew who wears a monocle.
00:43:04A nephew?
00:43:05Oh.
00:43:06Just imagine you're having a nephew.
00:43:09Absurd, isn't it?
00:43:10Absurd.
00:43:11I think it's delightful.
00:43:12I wish I were your nephew.
00:43:14Do you?
00:43:15Yes.
00:43:16And why?
00:43:23Well, if I were your nephew, I'd see you every day.
00:43:26And I'd say, good morning, Aunt Vivian.
00:43:28How are you?
00:43:29And you'd say, good morning, Paul.
00:43:31Are you going to kiss me?
00:43:32I'd say, rather, I should.
00:43:33Martin!
00:43:43Allow me.
00:43:44Ah.
00:43:45My partner, Mr. Martin.
00:43:48Well, well.
00:43:49Quite a young man.
00:43:50Ah, but in years only.
00:43:51In experience, he's as old as Henry Ford.
00:43:54And still in the eternal spring business.
00:43:56Yes, yes, yes.
00:43:57Mr. Martin holds three-quarters of the shares.
00:43:59With me.
00:44:00Hunt holds the other quarter.
00:44:03And if you don't mind my asking, who holds the money?
00:44:06Oh, Mr. Martin, might I trouble you?
00:44:08Just as a matter of course.
00:44:10Just as a matter of course.
00:44:11Just as a matter of course.
00:44:12Go on.
00:44:24Cash.
00:44:25Cash.
00:44:26Cash.
00:44:27Cash.
00:44:28Juicy.
00:44:29Juicy.
00:44:35Just as a matter of course, Paul.
00:44:39Now, listen to this.
00:44:40I think I take up some of your shares.
00:44:43Hunt might let you have a few.
00:44:44Nay.
00:44:45As chairman of the board of directors, I'm holding.
00:44:48And as managing director, I naturally hold.
00:44:51Aye.
00:44:52Whoa.
00:44:53Perhaps Mr. Martin might, uh...
00:44:56No, no, I'm sorry, old man.
00:44:57I'm afraid you're too late.
00:44:59Now, listen to this.
00:45:00Let's talk.
00:45:01Aye.
00:45:02Let's talk.
00:45:03Oh, don't you bother to wait, Mr. Martin.
00:45:04I know these details bore you.
00:45:06You're a financier, not a businessman.
00:45:07I'll call you if I want to.
00:45:09Now, listen.
00:45:10He has his share, and you have your share.
00:45:12Yes, and you have no share.
00:45:13Well, that's just what I want to talk about.
00:45:15Well, you know I'd always have liked...
00:45:16If you both have shares, and I have no shares,
00:45:18and I am Hunt's partner...
00:45:23Tired of big business?
00:45:24Tired of the whole thing.
00:45:25I think it's going well.
00:45:26Very well for your father.
00:45:27Oh, good for Daddy.
00:45:28The whole thing seems a bit dishonest to me.
00:45:30Are you trying to suggest my father's dishonest?
00:45:32No.
00:45:33Yes, you are.
00:45:34I'm not.
00:45:35Yes, you are.
00:45:36No, I'm not.
00:45:37Yes, you are.
00:45:38I don't need brains.
00:45:39Oh, so he's a fool as well as a crook.
00:45:41Who said so?
00:45:42You did.
00:45:43I didn't, but it's my money.
00:45:44Your money.
00:45:45I like that.
00:45:46You found it.
00:45:47Well, I was the one who found it, wasn't I?
00:45:49And stuck to it.
00:45:50You're a nice person to talk about somebody else's honesty.
00:45:55Well, you were in on that too, weren't you?
00:45:57It's a bit late, isn't it, to talk to me?
00:45:58Not too late to stop talking to you.
00:45:59All right, if I don't want to talk to you.
00:46:00That's what you came here for.
00:46:01I didn't.
00:46:02I came here to cut off the current.
00:46:03Well, cut off the current, and don't come back.
00:46:05I'm extremely sorry, sir, but a person
00:46:07has returned with the police.
00:46:09The police, miss?
00:46:11Asking for Mr. Martin, miss.
00:46:13But Joseph, they have no right to come
00:46:15in here without a warrant.
00:46:16I asked them, miss.
00:46:17Joseph!
00:46:18Well, you see, miss, I always considered
00:46:20it safer to keep on the right side of the police
00:46:23who knew nothing to hide.
00:46:25Joseph.
00:46:26Joseph, could you hold on to them for a minute?
00:46:28I'll use my best endeavors, miss.
00:46:32Of course.
00:46:34The thief.
00:46:35The tool bag inspector.
00:46:39You must hide him.
00:46:40Come on.
00:46:41Quick.
00:46:45Where?
00:46:46Here.
00:46:47He's here.
00:46:55Hello, hello.
00:46:56Stubborn little lady's man, eh?
00:46:58Here.
00:46:59Here, that's him.
00:47:04But what about my bill?
00:47:05How much is your ridiculous bill?
00:47:0814 pounds, 17 shillings and 9 pence.
00:47:12Well, my good man, take your money.
00:47:17But keep the change.
00:47:18Well, I'm busted.
00:47:20You look it.
00:47:27Oh, Lillian.
00:47:29Oh, Paul.
00:47:30Lillian.
00:47:31Paul.
00:47:32Mr. Martin.
00:47:43But Joseph, where on earth did you get all that money?
00:47:47It struck me, miss, that the financial depression
00:47:49might be lifted, one has one's little reserves.
00:47:53I think that's very rational.
00:47:55Well, for one or two observations, miss,
00:47:57I was wondering if we might expect
00:48:00an interesting announcement.
00:48:01That is, if I might be so curious.
00:48:04Joseph, you've been in the family longer than I.
00:48:07You might.
00:48:10You might.
00:48:12I might.
00:49:00I might.
00:49:1525,000.
00:49:1724,800.
00:49:185,000.
00:49:197,500.
00:49:20Are you asking me to pay a premium of 150 on shares
00:49:24that are only half an hour old?
00:49:25That's right.
00:49:26It's a scandal.
00:49:27Oh, well, we can come in, you know.
00:49:28We don't want to sell.
00:49:29Well, now, is that friendly?
00:49:30Now, we've always been together before.
00:49:32Oh, come on.
00:49:33Pay up and look pleasant.
00:49:34Come on.
00:49:35All right.
00:49:36But where are my pickings?
00:49:37What do you mean by pickings?
00:49:38Well, he is managing director.
00:49:40You are chairman.
00:49:41What am I?
00:49:42What about financial advisor?
00:49:43Yeah.
00:49:44Sounds all right.
00:49:45What goes with it?
00:49:461,500 a year.
00:49:47Is that enough?
00:49:48It's all you'll get.
00:49:49Do you agree?
00:49:50I suppose so, yes.
00:49:51Ah, good.
00:49:5325,000 for the shares and 5,000 for your profit.
00:49:58Oh, by the way, do you mind splitting that 5,000 to two checks?
00:50:02Two?
00:50:03Yes.
00:50:04Gilbert and I are splitting the profits 50-50, aren't we, old man?
00:50:06It's all the same to me.
00:50:15Now, not being a businessman, I'll leave the details to you.
00:50:23Lillian, Lillian, look at this.
00:50:25$2,500 clear profit.
00:50:27Think of that.
00:50:28Oh, let me see how clever.
00:50:32Money makes money, you know.
00:50:34I say, where is it?
00:50:35Where did we leave it?
00:50:36I'm not able to have a look.
00:50:37Let's get it, shall we?
00:50:38Come on.
00:50:43It's all right.
00:50:44It's all right.
00:50:45It's all right.
00:50:46It's all right.
00:50:47It's all right.
00:50:48It's all right.
00:50:49It's all right.
00:50:50It's all right.
00:50:51It's all right.
00:50:52It's all right.
00:50:59Men never can find anything.
00:51:16Joseph, did you collect any of these newspapers?
00:51:18Only one, miss.
00:51:20They were quite old papers.
00:51:22What did you do with them, Jody?
00:51:24The fire was going out, miss.
00:51:35Just one minute, miss.
00:51:41There we are.
00:51:42Now it's burning up nicely.
00:51:51Yes.
00:51:58Excuse me, my dear.
00:51:59You're speaking of the shares and not your money.
00:52:01I have some to you.
00:52:03You don't have those shares.
00:52:04You go to the bank to double them.
00:52:06You take the basis of a million.
00:52:08But you don't want to take the basis.
00:52:10That's the highest point.
00:52:11Don't keep writing for the last amount of time.
00:52:13I know we found it, but I won't speak of it afterwards.
00:52:16I will show you.
00:52:19$20,200?
00:52:36But it was my fault.
00:52:37It was for my sake that you brought them here
00:52:39instead of taking them to the police.
00:52:40It was I who thought of that idiotic hiding place.
00:52:43It's just a dream, Conniff.
00:52:45But, Paul, I'm not there.
00:52:47I'm afraid, sir, you were part of it.
00:52:51But I'm his.
00:52:53No, I go back where I belong.
00:52:56When I think of the nonsense I talk, the attitudes are stunk.
00:53:04Excuse me.
00:53:10Could money make all that difference?
00:53:11Only money can give the unobtainable.
00:53:13Meaning me?
00:53:15Meaning the love of someone utterly beyond my reach.
00:53:26It is understood that you have the cloakroom.
00:53:28I have the catering, the flowers, and the babies.
00:53:31And the bath towels go to my brother.
00:53:39Now that leaves the question of...
00:53:41I will have the quantity figured.
00:53:48A gentleman's called to see you.
00:53:50I hope I got the name right.
00:53:52I understood him to say it was Jordan.
00:53:55Jordan?
00:54:00Jordan!
00:54:02Good evening, gentlemen.
00:54:03Go keep your seats.
00:54:11Good evening.
00:54:18Good evening.
00:54:19Good evening, sir.
00:54:23Tell Mr. Martin I want to see him quickly.
00:54:25Very good, sir.
00:54:32Mr. Gilbert wishes to see you very urgently, sir.
00:54:35What about?
00:54:36Mr. Jordan's here.
00:54:38Mr. Jordan? Who's Mr. Jordan?
00:54:41A great Mr. Jordan.
00:54:43One of the wealthiest gentlemen in the city.
00:54:48Thank you, dear.
00:54:54Wish me luck.
00:54:55What for?
00:54:56I'm going to try to win back what I've lost.
00:54:57Money?
00:54:58Fate promised me $10,000 tonight and snatched it away again.
00:55:01What are you going to do?
00:55:03Get it.
00:55:04Oh, Jordan, do you know my partner, Mr. Martin?
00:55:06How do you do?
00:55:07You're in very good company, Mr. Martin.
00:55:09I'm very glad you think so.
00:55:10I'm not a businessman myself, you know.
00:55:12Oh, Mr. Martin, might I trouble you just once more?
00:55:14Just as a matter of form, I've got it.
00:55:16Certainly.
00:55:17Might I ask for what purpose?
00:55:18Mr. Jordan wants to take part in our enterprise.
00:55:20I want to buy your shares, Mr. Martin.
00:55:22You agree, I've got it.
00:55:24Sorry, I don't.
00:55:27Have you gone crazy?
00:55:28No, sir.
00:55:29No, sir.
00:55:30No, sir.
00:55:31No, sir.
00:55:32Have you gone crazy?
00:55:37Mr. Jordan is contemplating a great flotation.
00:55:40Mr. Jordan is in the habit of getting what he wants.
00:55:42And I am in the habit of keeping what I want.
00:55:44But you, you can't do anything.
00:55:46You're in a hopeless minority.
00:55:48I'm not.
00:55:49I have such faith in our little enterprise
00:55:51that I've decided to take over all my partner's shares.
00:55:54Is that so, isn't it, old man?
00:56:00It is.
00:56:02Why did you do it?
00:56:03But why should you want to sell your share
00:56:05in the greatest enterprise of the century?
00:56:07Because he wants me to have the contracts
00:56:09for the supply and maintenance of the lamps, apparatus,
00:56:11current, heating, power, and electrical engineering equipment generally.
00:56:15But why should he want you to have them?
00:56:17Why, why?
00:56:18Why?
00:56:19Why?
00:56:20Hasn't he told you?
00:56:21No.
00:56:23Because I'm going to marry his daughter.
00:56:27What?
00:56:28My dear boy!
00:56:29He, he, he!
00:56:30He, he, he!
00:56:31Congratulations!
00:56:32Congratulations!
00:56:33Congratulations!
00:56:34I'll be gone forever!
00:56:38Listen to me, my boy.
00:56:40Everything in the world has a price.
00:56:43I am the president of a building society
00:56:46at the moment developing an estate on the outskirts of the city.
00:56:49Would the installations be any use to you?
00:56:52How many houses?
00:56:53Seven hundred and twenty.
00:56:54It's a job for several years, Mr. Martin.
00:56:57Mr. Jordan, I'm no businessman.
00:56:58I'm an electrician.
00:56:59I'll sell you my shares if you secure me that contract
00:57:02and pay me a bonus of exactly $7,500.
00:57:06Exactly $7,500?
00:57:08Exactly.
00:57:09A superstition?
00:57:10A superstition.
00:57:12Aye.
00:57:20And now, gentlemen, if you'll excuse me.
00:57:22Oh, yes, we know.
00:57:23You are no businessman.
00:57:25Ho, ho, ho!
00:57:28You're quite right, Gilbert.
00:57:29He's a great lad.
00:57:31Congratulations.
00:57:32Lillian!
00:57:33Lillian!
00:57:34What's the excitement?
00:57:35I've got it!
00:57:36He gave me the check.
00:57:37$7,500.
00:57:38I was marvelous.
00:57:39I was superb.
00:57:40I was irresistible.
00:57:41The dream can go on, Lillian.
00:57:44Do you imagine that I'm up for sale?
00:57:55Well, if my eyes and nose ain't deceiving me,
00:57:58prosperity has returned.
00:58:07By the way, Hunt, did Gilbert give you anything to eat?
00:58:11Aye, he did it all.
00:58:12He was lovely.
00:58:14Lovely what?
00:58:15Kraut and quail.
00:58:19Nay, pheasant.
00:58:25He smokes beautiful cigars.
00:58:29I wonder what they cost.
00:58:30Up to now, they've cost me $7,500.
00:58:51Here.
00:58:53Get out of this house.
00:58:55Did you hear what I said?
00:58:57Daddy!
00:58:58Do you think that you can walk into my house with a bundle of dirty paper
00:59:01and walk out of it with my daughter?
00:59:03That is my sincere belief and my certain prayer.
00:59:08Get out or I'll take you by the scuff of the neck and kick you out.
00:59:10Daddy, will you leave it to me to settle my own private affair?
00:59:12Private?
00:59:13Do you know this fellow said in there that he's going to marry you?
00:59:15Did you say that?
00:59:16Yes.
00:59:17He was lying.
00:59:18Leave it to me.
00:59:19If there's any throwing out to be done, I'll do the kicking.
00:59:21It's my affair.
00:59:22And it's my affair that he tried to blackmail me.
00:59:24Yes, blackmail me in front of some of my best friends.
00:59:26Just because you happen to have a few thousand stolen dollars?
00:59:29Not stolen.
00:59:30Well, found them.
00:59:31Confound it.
00:59:32In your pocket.
00:59:33They were not in my pocket.
00:59:34Well, where were they?
00:59:35Nowhere.
00:59:36Burned.
00:59:38What?
00:59:40No.
00:59:41Burnt, Daddy.
00:59:42Burnt.
00:59:43No.
00:59:44Yes.
00:59:45Joseph put them all on the fire.
00:59:47All the hundred thousand?
00:59:49Yes.
00:59:50You had the infernal cheek to play that trick on Jordan?
00:59:54Yes.
00:59:55And on me?
00:59:56Yes.
00:59:57When you had no money at all?
00:59:59Yes.
01:00:01I learned a few things from you, Mr. Gilbert.
01:00:03But then, of course, as you know, I'm no businessman.
01:00:07Oh, no, no.
01:00:08You're not a businessman.
01:00:10No, no.
01:00:11You're a...
01:00:12Well, if she wasn't here, I'd tell you what you are.
01:00:14Yes.
01:00:15Go on.
01:00:16Kick him.
01:00:17Kick him for me.
01:00:18Kick him.
01:00:19Oh, no.
01:00:20You're no businessman.
01:00:27No businessman.
01:00:34Joseph.
01:00:35Joseph.
01:00:36Evening paper.
01:00:37No, not that.
01:00:38Evening paper.
01:00:39Come on.
01:00:40Come on.
01:00:41Come on.
01:00:42That's it.
01:00:43That's it.
01:00:44That's it.
01:00:45No businessman.
01:00:46What is it, Joseph?
01:00:48My shares, sir.
01:00:49Oh, yes, you've got 50 of them, haven't you?
01:00:51A hundred, sir.
01:00:52Well, you're a jolly lucky fellow to have them.
01:00:54Yes, but might I suggest that you buy them from me?
01:00:57You're a fool, Joseph.
01:00:59Yes, sir, but I prefer cash.
01:01:04Cash.
01:01:10Cash.
01:01:18Cash.
01:01:28Forged.
01:01:29Worthless money the whole time.
01:01:31The money was forged.
01:01:38The whole thing a fake from beginning to end.
01:01:43Only the beginning, darling.
01:01:45What?
01:01:46Not the end.
01:01:48The end.
