00:00:00The End
00:01:00Oh, boy.
00:01:20Boy, what a day.
00:01:21Ten minutes after ten.
00:01:31Phil, call up the paper and tell them we've got a story for the front page.
00:01:35Ten minutes after ten, and Lulu ain't come to work yet.
00:01:38Is that news?
00:01:39There's something to write home about.
00:01:40I've been waiting eight years for that girl to come late, and now it's happened.
00:01:44Maybe she's got spring fever like you have.
00:01:46The old Lulu, she couldn't get any kind of fever.
00:01:50If there'd been a wedding this morning, I'd understand it.
00:01:52She ain't missed a wedding in years.
00:01:54Yes, she has.
00:01:55Who?
00:01:56Her own.
00:01:59Here she comes now.
00:02:01Here she comes now.
00:02:31Oh, lady, four eyes.
00:02:35Oh, lady, four eyes.
00:02:37Oh, lady, four eyes.
00:02:39Oh, lady, four eyes.
00:02:46Zuru, do you know what time it is?
00:03:13Springtime.
00:03:16Clickety-click, clickety-click, clickety-click, clickety-click.
00:03:22I wish I owned this library.
00:03:24Why?
00:03:25Because I'd get an axe and smash it to a million pieces.
00:03:28Then I'd set fire to the whole town and play a ukulele while it burns.
00:03:47What, are you drawing all your money out for investment?
00:03:50Yes.
00:03:50I hope you're not going into the stock market.
00:03:52No.
00:03:53Then what are you going to invest your money in?
00:03:55A vacation.
00:03:56You mean to tell me you're going to spend $1,242.68?
00:04:00Yes.
00:04:00Or how long do you expect to be gone?
00:04:02About two weeks.
00:04:03Where?
00:04:04Someplace where they don't know me.
00:04:05Lola Smith, that's a deal.
00:04:06It's silly.
00:04:07It's ridiculous.
00:04:08It's insane, but I'm going to do it.
00:04:10Why?
00:04:10Just because.
00:04:11What's the use of worrying your young life a ways?
00:04:33Some trouble may come hurrying, but it's a nice day today.
00:04:36You smile for a while you go along at your word for play.
00:04:42Happily just sing a song for it's a nice day today.
00:04:46Worrying about tomorrow.
00:04:47Good evening.
00:04:48Two, please.
00:04:49Emil, two.
00:04:50Two.
00:04:51Parisi, s'il vous plaît.
00:04:56Good evening, madam.
00:04:57Two.
00:04:58No.
00:04:59No, one.
00:05:00One.
00:05:01Emil, one.
00:05:03One.
00:05:04One.
00:05:06Yes, s'il vous plaît.
00:05:36Oh, um, uh, I'll take everything.
00:05:42Yes, madam.
00:05:46Two days out and still one.
00:05:49This boat, she's not what she used to be.
00:05:51Emil.
00:05:52Oh, pardon.
00:05:52Here am I on a night in June beneath the moon.
00:06:08That no one knows I'm on a night in June.
00:06:12It must be Cupid's holiday.
00:06:17Every one star, one blue, they're clinging to.
00:06:21And I'm alone here sad and blue.
00:06:25It must be Cupid's holiday.
00:06:29Oh, say.
00:06:31That night I wandered down to Father's Lane.
00:06:34I look around and lay.
00:06:38I get so tiny all alone.
00:06:40I wander home again.
00:06:43How I want to find romance in someone's plans.
00:06:47But I can see there's not a chance.
00:06:50It must be Cupid's holiday.
00:06:53Holiday.
00:06:54Holiday.
00:07:15Holiday.
00:07:16Holiday.
00:07:19Hello, what are you doing in my room?
00:07:44What are you doing in my room?
00:07:47In your room?
00:07:49Isn't this 99?
00:07:51Not quite.
00:07:52It's 66.
00:07:5366?
00:07:58Oh, me oh my.
00:08:01Or oh my oh me if you prefer it because I'm upside down again.
00:08:05You know I went upside down every day on the boat.
00:08:08Oh, I say.
00:08:10Now they owe you an apology.
00:08:12See, 99, 66.
00:08:1433 apologies to be exact.
00:08:16Will you forgive me?
00:08:17Certainly, 33 times.
00:08:20Thank you for understanding.
00:08:26There, you see?
00:08:2899 and 66.
00:08:30If I'd have walked on my hands, I'd have been all right, wouldn't I?
00:08:33Well, do you think you'll be all right now?
00:08:35I'm sure that I will.
00:08:45Come in.
00:08:48I beg your pardon.
00:08:49I didn't want you to think.
00:08:50That is, I've never done anything like this before.
00:08:53I mean get fizzed up and strained to a strange room.
00:08:56Will you forgive me?
00:08:57It's quite all right.
00:08:58You see, I'm on my vacation.
00:09:01Are you on your vacation?
00:09:03Yes.
00:09:04You know, I haven't had a holiday in a long, long time.
00:09:07You know, nose to the grindstone, all that sort of thing.
00:09:10It sort of went to my head.
00:09:12Have you ever had your nose to the grindstone?
00:09:13Oh, I beg your pardon.
00:09:17Then you really do forgive me.
00:09:18Really?
00:09:21You're not just being polite.
00:09:22No.
00:09:25Oh, look.
00:09:27I must up your bed.
00:09:29Well, at least I wasn't under the bed, was I?
00:09:37Do I look like an out-and-out drunker to you?
00:09:40No, not out-and-out.
00:09:41Well, would you say that I was fairly sober now?
00:09:45Fairly.
00:09:46Well, pardon me for being personal,
00:09:47but as long as I was straying into somebody's rooms,
00:09:49I'm glad it was yours.
00:09:51I think you're the most beautiful girl I ever met.
00:09:53Good night.
00:10:11Hello.
00:10:15Hello.
00:10:15Hello.
00:10:16Is this 66?
00:10:18Well, this is 99 calling.
00:10:20I just wanted to let you know that I got home safely.
00:10:23Oh, congratulations.
00:10:26The trouble now is how to find the dining room.
00:10:29I never could do it without a pilot.
00:10:31Have you had your dinner?
00:10:31Well, I...
00:10:34Um, no.
00:10:35No, I was just going.
00:10:37Oh, that's fine.
00:10:39I'll be in the gutter in front of your door.
00:10:40Will you pick me up on the way?
00:10:41One, ma'am?
00:10:51No, two.
00:10:52Two?
00:10:54Emil, two.
00:10:56Two?
00:10:58Two.
00:10:59Vive la France.
00:11:01Par ici, c'est vous plait.
00:11:02Par ici, c'est vous plait, c'est vous plait, c'est vous plait.
00:11:32Oh, but I bet I'm 33 three times.
00:11:34Number 33, oui.
00:11:35Oh, oh, oh.
00:11:36Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:11:37Come on, Emil.
00:11:39Oh, look at all that.
00:11:40Oh, well.
00:11:41Oh, well.
00:12:02I hope I haven't bored you with all this talk about politics.
00:12:17I haven't heard anything but that music.
00:12:20It's funny how you open up sometimes and talk.
00:12:22I guess it's because I've got a worm.
00:12:24What do you mean a worm?
00:12:25Surely, people without worms never amount to much.
00:12:28Of course, some people call them dreams and others call them ambitions.
00:12:30Worms. I call them worms. You know why?
00:12:33Because they know and know inside of you and keep you on the go.
00:12:37You know what I mean?
00:12:39I know.
00:12:40What's your pet worm?
00:12:42You are.
00:12:45And don't you step on me.
00:12:46Because after I get to be President of the United States, the worm will turn.
00:12:49Oh, don't be President. It's much more fun here.
00:12:53You want to know something, 66?
00:12:55If I were an architect instead of a lawyer...
00:12:58Yes.
00:12:58And can draw the plans for the kind of girl that would suit the kind of guy I am.
00:13:03Yes.
00:13:07You'd be it.
00:13:09And do you know something?
00:13:11Do you want to know what I really came to Havana for?
00:13:16What?
00:13:16To meet you.
00:13:20Don't you think it's about time we gave our right names?
00:13:23You don't know anything about me.
00:13:25Well, have you ever beaten your mother?
00:13:29Not with a club.
00:13:31Or strangled little children?
00:13:33None under the age of five.
00:13:34Well, that's all I want to know.
00:13:39Here's to you, 66.
00:13:40Right back at your 99.
00:13:46I would be, except for one thing.
00:13:48What's that?
00:13:48The boat sails tomorrow.
00:13:50Oh, why bring that up?
00:13:52Why can't we stay here?
00:13:54You mean for another week?
00:13:55Another century.
00:13:57But what would we live on?
00:13:59Worms.
00:14:00We could be beachcombers.
00:14:01We could be beached.
00:14:52Give me the clippings on Water Man.
00:14:56Who?
00:14:57Water Man.
00:15:10Clippings on Water Man.
00:15:14All right, 99.
00:15:15But can't you get there before 9 o'clock for once?
00:15:20Well, I have a surprise for you.
00:15:22Lots of them.
00:15:24Yeah.
00:15:26All right.
00:15:27But don't be any later, will you?
00:15:29All right.
00:15:30Bye, dear.
00:15:48Morning, teacher.
00:15:49What would you do for that?
00:15:52I'd go for it, Al.
00:15:56Tell me.
00:15:57Did you ever hear of a lawyer named Robert Collins?
00:16:00Lawyer?
00:16:00Collins?
00:16:01Never heard of him.
00:16:0220, 10 bar.
00:16:02Or do I see love rearing its ugly head?
00:16:07No.
00:16:08I just couldn't find any clippings on him, that's all.
00:16:14I know you didn't give me this apple for nothing.
00:16:17So what?
00:16:18Well, in a word, I'll tell you.
00:16:20See, I was repairing my typewriter, fixing the letter I, but it suddenly dawned on me, today's payday.
00:16:25Ergo, I eat.
00:16:28Alone, I says.
00:16:29Phooey, says I.
00:16:30And who do you think I thought of?
00:16:32Who do you think I thought of?
00:16:34You.
00:16:35What do you say?
00:16:36No.
00:16:39Tomorrow night?
00:16:41No.
00:16:41Next year?
00:16:42No.
00:16:43Good.
00:16:44Because by me, it's this way.
00:16:45The longer they know, the harder they yes.
00:16:48Please.
00:16:49Mr. Holland.
00:16:50You say.
00:17:00Hello, Mr. Holland.
00:17:02Oh, that's all right.
00:17:09You're a mean old thing.
00:17:11Well, what's an apple core for?
00:17:16Oh, is that so?
00:17:19Listen here, young lady.
00:17:20You're going to wake up some fine morning and find yourself married.
00:17:25And it'll be my big shoes.
00:17:27You'll find...

00:18:40Oh!
00:18:41I lost my census long ago!
00:18:42Good!
00:18:43Then I'll come in!
00:18:44What's your name?
00:18:45How many children did you get from this house?
00:18:47What's your father's name?
00:18:48What's your mother's name?
00:18:49How old is the oldest child?
00:18:50How old is your father?
00:18:51How old is your mother?
00:18:52How old is your mother?
00:18:55Oh!
00:18:56You look awful!
00:18:57Strange interlude!
00:19:00I love you!
00:19:01I adore you!
00:19:02You are the most beautiful flower in this lovely garden!
00:19:05What do you have to eat?
00:19:06Oh!
00:19:07I live only for you, my prince!
00:19:08My hero!
00:19:11Kippers, you pig!
00:19:12Kippers?
00:19:13English kippers?
00:19:14Out of my way, slave!
00:19:15Hey!
00:19:16Keep out of there!
00:19:17Help!
00:19:30Oh!
00:19:35OHHHH!
00:19:47Oh, my God.
00:20:17Let me fix the flowers.
00:20:22Say, what are we celebrating, anyway?
00:20:24Your victory in court today.
00:20:25What victory?
00:20:27Well, I didn't see it in the papers, but you won your case, didn't you?
00:20:29Did I ever lose a case?
00:20:30Did you follow my advice?
00:20:32If I say no, you'll get stoned.
00:20:33If I say yes, you'll get conceded.
00:20:34Did you do what I told you to do?
00:20:36I'll tell you after the potatoes.
00:20:37You'll tell me right now.
00:20:38No, I'll tell you after the kipper.
00:20:39You'll tell me now, because I have some news, too, but you tell me yours first.
00:20:43I'm not interested.
00:20:44Oh, but you will be.
00:20:44It's a secret.
00:20:45It's awfully important.
00:20:46But you have to tell me about yourself first.
00:20:48The Cardinals beat the Cubs today at 10 to 7.
00:20:50Oh, my goodness.
00:20:51And I'll tell you much.
00:20:52Did you handle a case the way I played?
00:20:54Did you win?
00:20:55Come on.
00:20:57Wait, wait.
00:20:58Yes, yes.
00:20:58I won.
00:20:59I did just as you told me.
00:21:01Now, cut it out, you roughneck.
00:21:02See?
00:21:03There.
00:21:03Didn't I tell you?
00:21:04If you did as a...
00:21:05Listen, foolish, are you happy?
00:21:13At times.
00:21:16What times?
00:21:18What times when I'm with you.
00:21:20Then I'm not only happy, I'm sappy.
00:21:24A hundred percent?
00:21:26Did you ever read the story of Cinderella?
00:21:29I wrote it.
00:21:31And you remember that Cindy had a complex.
00:21:34And at the time, she was happiest and sappiest.
00:21:36She was most afraid.
00:21:38Afraid of what?
00:21:40The stroke of 12.
00:21:41Don't you remember?
00:21:42That's when poor little Cindy had to stop being a princess and go back to her attic.
00:21:47It's never going to strike 12 for us, is it, Bob?
00:21:59Uh-huh.
00:22:00The stroke of 12.
00:22:02Please don't answer it.
00:22:04I have to.
00:22:05It might be the prince for little Cindy.
00:22:08Are you there?
00:22:09Am I there?
00:22:11I'll say I'm there.
00:22:14It isn't the prince.
00:22:15Say, listen.
00:22:17In the last 10 or 15 minutes, I've decided to ask you to marry me.
00:22:21What do you say?
00:22:24Say that again.
00:22:26I said, in the last 10 or 15 minutes, I've decided to ask you to marry me.
00:22:29What do you say?
00:22:34Well, I'll think it over for 10 or 15 years.
00:22:36All right with me.
00:22:37Take your time.
00:22:39I'll hold the wire.
00:22:42I'll have to see my lawyer about it.
00:22:45I have a good one.
00:22:49Okay.
00:22:50See you in court.
00:22:51All right.
00:22:52Bye-bye.
00:22:54What was that?
00:22:55A reporter on the paper.
00:22:57How well do you know him?
00:22:59Well, enough to have him ask me to marry him.
00:23:02But I told him I'd have to see my lawyer about it.
00:23:05What have you got to say about that?
00:23:06Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:08Yeah.
00:23:09Yeah.
00:23:09Yeah.
00:23:09Yeah.
00:23:09Yeah.
00:23:11Yeah.
00:23:11Yeah.
00:23:11Yeah.
00:23:11Yeah.
00:23:15Well, aren't you going to advise me about marriage?
00:23:34Well?
00:23:36Well, dear, I can't advise you about marriage.
00:23:37Well, I guess I'll have to get myself another lawyer.
00:23:52Hey, you.
00:23:55Hey, you with a funny nose.
00:23:56What's the matter?
00:23:57Well, dear, you know that I love you, don't you?
00:24:09Yes.
00:24:10That's all I ever want to know.
00:24:13Dear, haven't you ever been curious about me or wondered who I am or wondered why you never
00:24:18saw my name in the papers or...
00:24:20You don't have to explain anything, Bob.
00:24:22Dear, I can't explain anything.
00:24:24Lulu, deep down in your heart, you know that you're the only woman I ever loved.
00:24:27You've got to believe that.
00:24:28You do, don't you?
00:24:30Yes.
00:24:32Well, my name isn't Collins.
00:24:34It's Grover, Bob Grover, and I'm married.
00:24:40Oh, I know what you're thinking, but you can't despise me any more than I despise myself.
00:24:45If I have any excuse, it's that I love you.
00:24:48Up to now, I've been too much of a coward.
00:24:49But, dear, listen, I want to do the right thing.
00:24:56Are you living together?
00:24:59Yes, we are.
00:25:07Oh, dear, I'm awfully sorry.
00:25:09I meant to tell you before, I don't know why I kept putting it off.
00:25:11On the boat, on the way home, even in Havana I meant to tell you, but somehow I couldn't.
00:25:16I was afraid of losing you.
00:25:17Oh, I know.
00:25:21I wanted to ask you, too, but I was afraid.
00:25:24I knew there was something wrong.
00:25:27I guess we'll have to blame it on the palm trees or something.
00:25:31You can't blame it on the palm trees.
00:25:32You've got to blame it on me.
00:25:32I'm the one that's to blame.
00:25:36What are we going to do now, Bob?
00:25:38Dear, I don't know.
00:25:39I'm trying.
00:25:39I don't know.
00:25:40I want to do whatever's right.
00:25:42Oh, I'll keep on loving you no matter what happened.
00:25:50What will happen, Bob?
00:25:53Oh, dear, I can't leave her.
00:25:56You love her, don't you?
00:25:58No, dear, not the way I love you.
00:26:00That isn't the point.
00:26:01A divorce is out of the question.
00:26:02Why?
00:26:03Oh, dear, it's awfully tough to talk about.
00:26:05You see, she's an invalid.
00:26:07The car turned over while I was driving.
00:26:10She's on my hands.
00:26:11She always will be, Lulu.
00:26:13But she's such a good sport.
00:26:14You see, that's what makes it so...
00:26:16Well, anyway, I can't leave her.
00:26:17I see.
00:26:21That is kind of...
00:26:22Oh, but, Bob, that doesn't mean we're through, does it?
00:26:29Look, if I never see her, I can pretend she doesn't even exist.
00:26:32That'll be better than nothing.
00:26:34Sweet, that'll be worse than nothing.
00:26:35But you can't leave me, Bob.
00:26:36Not now.
00:26:37You mustn't.
00:26:37Oh, dear, I must.
00:26:38It wouldn't be fair to you.
00:26:39Oh, that doesn't make any difference.
00:26:40Don't you understand?
00:26:41You can't leave me.
00:26:42Dear, I can't offer you marriage, and I won't offer you anything else.
00:26:45What do you want me to do?
00:26:46Get down on my knees?
00:26:47Now, Lulu, darling, please.
00:26:48You say you love me?
00:26:49Well, why don't you do something about it?
00:26:50I haven't asked any questions because I can answer every question.
00:26:53I haven't lied.
00:26:54I'm not married.
00:26:55Dear, I've tried to explain that my wife...
00:26:57My wife?
00:26:57Why do I care about your wife?
00:26:59Don't you see I'm trying to do the right thing?
00:27:00Right thing.
00:27:01Right thing.
00:27:02All right.
00:27:03Go ahead.
00:27:04Be noble.
00:27:07Here's your hat.
00:27:08Go home to your wife.
00:27:09Lulu.
00:27:09You say you want to do the right thing?
00:27:11Well, why don't you?
00:27:12You're using a lot of high words, but what do they all amount to?
00:27:15You've had your fun, and you're fed up.
00:27:17That's all right with me.
00:27:18Get out!
00:27:22Lulu, if you ever need anything, if you...
00:27:24Yeah, sure, I know.
00:27:25I know.
00:27:26I know.
00:27:26I know.
00:27:26I know.
00:28:56Say, nurse, have I had my baby yet?
00:29:00Will you please go to the office on the second floor?
00:29:02What floor is this?
00:29:03This is the third floor.
00:29:04Oh, gee.
00:29:04No, she doesn't want to see it.
00:29:15I just saw your baby.
00:29:25It's beautiful.
00:29:27Wouldn't you like to see it?
00:29:31I wonder if you feel strong enough to answer a few questions.
00:29:35What about?
00:29:37What are you going to call the baby?
00:29:40Roberta.
00:29:41The mother's name?
00:29:46Jane Doe.
00:29:48Wouldn't you rather give your real name?
00:29:53Jane Doe.
00:29:54And the father's name?
00:29:57And the father's name?
00:30:10District attorney's office.
00:30:13Sorry, that case doesn't come up until tomorrow morning.
00:30:15Tell the D.A. I'll wait just one minute longer.
00:30:21Then he'll have to come to see me.
00:30:27Mr. Holland says he'll wait just one more minute.
00:30:29Then he'll have to come and see him.
00:30:31You tell Holland to use his own judgment.
00:30:33Oh, I'm fed up.
00:30:35But you've been working so hard lately.
00:30:37Why don't you take a rest?
00:30:39You know what the doctor said.
00:30:40Dear, I don't care what the doctor said.
00:30:42The doctor's a fool.
00:30:42All doctors are fools.
00:30:43Simply because you don't turn handsprings and say something's the matter with you.
00:30:46Why don't you go with me to Vienna?
00:30:48Well, dear, I'd love to.
00:30:49But if you're going away for treatments, you'll be gone for months.
00:30:57Miss Murphy.
00:30:58No, and I don't ever want to see Mr. Murphy.
00:31:01Darling, wouldn't it be marvelous if I really came back cured this time?
00:31:06Yeah, you're great just as you are.
00:31:08The only trouble with you is that you worry too much about me.
00:31:11Well, one invalid in the family is enough.
00:31:15I don't like to hear you talk that way.
00:31:17You're great.
00:31:18You'll be jumping over fences the first thing you know.
00:31:19And don't you worry about me now.
00:31:21I'll take care of myself all right.
00:31:22Bob, while I'm away, I want you to have a good time.
00:31:28And I won't ask too many questions either.
00:31:31Just for that, I'll be home for dinner tonight.
00:31:34Good.
00:31:35Goodbye, dear.
00:31:36Goodbye.
00:31:36Goodbye.
00:31:36Hello, Holland.
00:31:49Make it snappy.
00:31:51Oh, Miss Jones, have those witnesses wait.
00:31:52I'll only be a moment.
00:31:55That's all right, Grover.
00:31:56You don't have to try to impress me.
00:31:57I know you're busy.
00:31:59Have a peanut?
00:32:01How would that be considered a bribe?
00:32:03Extra, extra.
00:32:05District attorney accepts peanut from city editor.
00:32:09That'd be front page on that peanut paper of yours.
00:32:11That peanut paper elected you D.A.
00:32:14Sorry it did.
00:32:15So I see.
00:32:16So sorry that you printed this nice, charming editorial about me.
00:32:19That?
00:32:20Oh, that.
00:32:21Why, that simply says you bought your election with your wife's money.
00:32:23That's a dirty lie and you know it.
00:32:24Now, look here, Holland.
00:32:25You can print anything you want about me in that cheap scandal sheet of yours.
00:32:28But when you start dragging my family into it, that's another story.
00:32:30You might have a skeleton in the closet.
00:32:32If you have, I'll get a picture of it.
00:32:35I know what's eating you.
00:32:36Ever since you became city editor, you wanted me to run errands for you.
00:32:38You think I'm working for the record.
00:32:40Well, I'm not.
00:32:41Are you getting this?
00:32:42I get it.
00:32:42I get it.
00:32:42As long as I'm holding this job down, I'm working for the state.
00:32:45And from now on, you keep those reporters of yours out of here because they're not going
00:32:48to get any news from this office.
00:32:49All right.
00:32:50All right.
00:32:52If you don't let your foot slip, it's all right.
00:32:54We've clipped bigger men than you are.
00:32:56Are you threatening me?
00:32:57No.
00:32:57I never make threats.
00:32:59I'm just predicting.
00:33:01Say, listen, Grover, all kidding aside, what's happened to you?
00:33:03You never used to be like this.
00:33:05Who's been advising you lately?
00:33:07If you'd behave, you could be the next mayor.
00:33:08How do you know I want to be mayor?
00:33:10For two cents, I'd resign as district attorney.
00:33:12You know, I don't like this job, and I don't like the people I have to do business with.
00:33:15That makes it unanimous.
00:33:17From now on, I'm going to make it my personal business to keep you out of this office.
00:33:19And I'm going to make it my personal business to keep you out of any office.
00:33:22All right.
00:33:23Print that.
00:33:28Good day, Mr. Holland.
00:33:29Good day.
00:33:29Good day, Mr. Holland.
00:33:30Good day.
00:33:31Good day.
00:33:44Good day.
00:33:45Good day.
00:33:45Good day.
00:33:46Good day.
00:33:46Good day.
00:33:51Good day.
00:33:51Well, boss, it looks like I go to the head of the class.
00:33:53I finally dug up that Smith woman for you.
00:33:55Where?
00:33:57Here's her address, and she works down at Brock's.
00:34:00Shall I bring her in?
00:34:00Oh, never mind.
00:34:01I just wanted to know where she lived.
00:34:03Forget about it.
00:34:03Thanks, Mother.
00:34:04All right.
00:34:05Henry!
00:34:06Boss, um...
00:34:07Help yourself.
00:34:07Thanks.
00:34:08Henry, I'll be out for the rest of the afternoon.
00:34:10Yes.
00:34:11Oh, Marty, never mind making a report out on this case.
00:34:13Okay, Chief, no report.
00:34:15Henry, telephone my house and say that I won't be there for dinner.
00:34:17Oh, my house.
00:34:18That's right.
00:34:22Come on, honey.
00:34:23Come on, put your head back.
00:34:25Atta girl.
00:34:27There the little fella.
00:34:28Oh, my soap.
00:34:29You have soap.
00:34:31You have soap.
00:34:32And I have soap.
00:34:35Here we go.
00:34:37Come on.
00:34:38Oh, she goes.
00:34:40Whew.
00:34:42Isn't that good?
00:34:44Yeah.
00:34:45Oh, no crying, Mom.
00:34:46Oh, no.
00:34:47I can't have any crying.
00:34:49You know it's going to be a good little girl.
00:34:52Come on.
00:34:52Come on, darling.
00:34:54Here we go.
00:34:57Oh, no.
00:34:58Oh, no.
00:34:59We can't have any crying.
00:35:01Come on.
00:35:01No.
00:35:02You couldn't be.
00:35:03Shh.
00:35:07Mom.
00:35:08All right, darling.
00:35:09If you're a good little girl, I'll sing you the moon song all about the stars and the moon.
00:35:14Are you going to be good?
00:35:15Will you not?
00:35:16I don't know.
00:35:16Oh, no.
00:35:17I can't have any.
00:35:18I can't have any.
00:35:19I want to talk to you, dear.
00:35:20I don't want to talk to you, dear.
00:35:21Please, can you hear me?
00:35:22Lulu.
00:35:23Lulu, please.
00:35:24Oh, please, 66.
00:35:25Open the door.
00:35:26I want to talk to you, dear.
00:35:27Please, can you hear me?
00:35:28Lulu, open the door, please.
00:35:29Please, 66.
00:35:30Let me come in.
00:35:31I want to talk to you.
00:35:32I only want to talk to you.
00:35:33Please.
00:35:34Lulu.
00:35:35Lulu.
00:35:36Lulu, this one.
00:35:37Lulu.
00:35:38Lulu, open the door, please.
00:35:40Please, 66.
00:35:41Let me come in.
00:35:42I want to talk to you.
00:35:43I only want to talk to you.
00:35:44Please.
00:35:45Lulu.
00:35:46Lulu, this one.
00:35:47Lulu.
00:35:48Lulu.
00:35:49Lulu.
00:35:50Lulu.
00:36:07Lulu.
00:36:08Woop, you got the door open there.
00:36:10I'll go back.
00:36:11Mum.
00:36:20Bob?
00:36:21Bob!
00:36:22Bob!
00:36:31Bob?
00:36:33Sweetheart.
00:36:37Don't cry, dear.
00:36:39Please, don't cry.
00:36:40We're together again, sweetie, please.
00:36:44Oh, look.
00:36:46It's your own button.
00:36:48It's wrong everything for me.
00:36:50That's why I've been trying to find you.
00:36:52That's why I've been looking everywhere for you, dear.
00:36:54Everywhere.
00:36:56If you only knew how I searched for you.
00:37:00One day I followed a woman up the street for five blocks.
00:37:03And when I caught up with her, I...
00:37:04What happened?
00:37:05I mean, you got slapped.
00:37:07I mean, you got slapped.
00:37:12I hadn't been a bit of good without you, dear.
00:37:16Mama.
00:37:21Come, Ella.
00:37:26Oh.
00:37:28Oh, I forgot.
00:37:30Your daughter's name is Roberta.
00:37:33Hello, Mama.
00:37:34Hello.
00:37:35Oh, she cried.
00:37:36Mama.
00:37:49Oh, she cried.
00:37:49Mama.
00:37:50Careful, honey.
00:37:51Careful, honey.
00:37:55Careful, honey.
00:37:57Careful, honey.
00:37:59Careful, honey.
00:38:00Stop, Charlie.
00:38:01Stop, Charlie.
00:38:01Daddy,口 está deviamo.
00:38:02Here's a thermal!
00:38:03Time it takes.
00:38:04Wait here a moment.
00:38:15No, I says, no.
00:38:16There can't be two women in the world like that.
00:38:18It's Lula Smith, I says.
00:38:21Well, is it or isn't it?
00:38:23Hello, Al.
00:38:24Sit right down, Mr. Holland.
00:38:26I can't tell you how glad I am to see you.
00:38:28Where have you been all this time?
00:38:30Oh, here and there.
00:38:32Mostly there.
00:38:32I've looked for you in every jail in the state.
00:38:35Oh, I've got time off for good behavior.
00:38:38Say, listen, baby.
00:38:39Would it shock you to know that my heart's been broken?
00:38:41It's been going potato, potato, potato
00:38:43for the last couple of years.
00:38:46Who's your lady friend?
00:38:48Yes, honey.
00:38:50Go on.
00:38:50My head's bloody but unbowed.
00:38:53You're married.
00:38:54No.
00:38:56Niece?
00:38:58No.
00:39:00You're a governess.
00:39:02Yes, and I think I'd better be getting her home.
00:39:06Hold everything.
00:39:07Arden Swain takes new lease on life.
00:39:09Wait a minute.
00:39:10Who do you work for?
00:39:11What's your phone number?
00:39:13Daddy.
00:39:17Daddy.
00:39:17Daddy.
00:39:18Hello, Grover.
00:39:30This is the gentleman I'm working for.
00:39:32Mr. Grover, meet Mr. Holland of the record.
00:39:34Oh, I know Mr. Grover.
00:39:35Used to know him pretty well.
00:39:37Didn't know he had a baby, though.
00:39:39Well, there might be lots of things that you don't know.
00:39:42Always willing to learn.
00:39:44So you've been holding out on us, huh?
00:39:47Hello, baby.
00:39:49Adopted or...
00:39:52She does look like it, that.
00:39:54Yeah, she's adopted.
00:39:56Well, that's fine.
00:39:57Make a nice little story.
00:39:58I was under the impression that your paper didn't care to give me any publicity.
00:40:01Oh, this is different.
00:40:02Human interest.
00:40:03Make a nice little yawn.
00:40:04Say, I'd like to send up a photographer to get a picture.
00:40:06You and the baby and Mrs. Grover.
00:40:07We can't use Mrs. Grover, can we?
00:40:09She's in Europe.
00:40:10Well, uh...
00:40:11Don't forget to give me a quiz, Lulu.
00:40:12When does Mrs. Grover get back from Vienna?
00:40:14How is she?
00:40:15Treatments do her any good?
00:40:23I know Holland.
00:40:24You've picked the story all right.
00:40:26And the boat gets in tomorrow.
00:40:28Gee, I hate to think, but this will do to Helen.
00:40:30What did you tell him?
00:40:32That, uh...
00:40:33That I adopted the baby?
00:40:34Yes, I told him I was working for you as Bobby's governess.
00:40:39Bye, Mama.
00:40:44My God.
00:40:46Is that a key?
00:40:48The key?
00:40:50Mama.
00:40:51Mama.
00:40:53Mama.
00:40:55I need to do something.
00:40:56You don't know about her.
00:40:58What is it about her?

00:41:00You tell her.
00:41:01Wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:41:04Please, one at a time.
00:41:06But what ever made you think of doing such a thing, Bob?
00:41:08Now, dear, there are two things that you've always wanted.
00:41:11A home and a baby.
00:41:12You have this beautiful home.
00:41:14Wait until you see this baby.
00:41:15Well, where is she?
00:41:16Well, dear, I told you, she's downtown getting some clothes with the governess.
00:41:18Governor?
00:41:19What do you know about engaging a governess?
00:41:21I'll discharge her at once.

00:50:07Ex-governor.
00:50:08Hey, hey!
00:50:09Situation wanted female.
00:50:11Ho, ho!

00:50:28Hey!

00:50:30Can you write?
00:50:31Well...
00:50:32You're hired.
00:50:33I know.
00:50:34That's the job, boys.
00:50:35Sit down.
00:50:36One of our boys is quitting today.
00:50:40Come in, boss!
00:50:43Yes, boss?
00:50:44Nick?
00:50:45This is Miss Lula Smith.
00:50:46She's gonna take your place.
00:50:47How do you, Miss Smith?
00:50:48How do you do?
00:50:49Give her the lowdown.
00:50:50Thank you, Mr. Hoffman.
00:50:51All right.
00:50:52I'll collect my commission later.
00:50:53This way, Miss.
00:50:54Okay, boss.
00:50:57Sit there, ma'am.
00:50:58Now, I'll be glad to tell you anything you want to know.
00:51:01Well, I'd like to know what job I'm taking.
00:51:03Well, you're taking over my column.
00:51:04What column is it?
00:51:05Advice to the Lovelorn.
00:51:07Well, didn't the Lovelorn column used to be run by Mary Sunshine?
00:51:10That's me.
00:51:11Anybody that runs this column is Mary Sunshine.
00:51:15You're gonna be Mary Sunshine now.
00:51:17What do I have to do?
00:51:18Well, if you play solitary, it'll help to pass the time away.
00:51:23You get stacks of letters every day.
00:51:26Hundreds of them.
00:51:27You take out six for the column and the rest, dump them under there.
00:51:34Yeah.
00:51:35Well, don't you read them?
00:51:36No.
00:51:37They're all alike.
00:51:39Well, there they are.
00:51:41You can read them and weep.
00:51:43Every time I look at them, it reminds me of my sweetie.
00:51:45I'm going out and give her the ring.
00:51:46Excuse me.
00:51:47Well, I've come to collect my commission.
00:52:01In advance?
00:52:02I don't mind telling you I was sore when I found out you were working for Grover.
00:52:06But I'm glad now because it's liable to come in handy.
00:52:09And you're going to help me.
00:52:10Is that why you gave me this job?
00:52:12There aren't any strings attached to anything I do for you.
00:52:15I guess you know that.
00:52:17But the paper's out to get Grover and you work for the paper.
00:52:20I got a hunch we can do it through this kid he adopted.
00:52:23What do you think?
00:52:25Some of these letters are comical.
00:52:28He never adopted that kid.
00:52:30Did he?
00:52:31Men don't do things like that while their wives are in Europe.
00:52:34That's hunch number two.
00:52:36Dear Mary Sunshine, I'm in love with a young man 15 years my...
00:52:40My third hunch is this.
00:52:42You've been working for Grover and you've had a chance to find out things.
00:52:46What did you dig up?
00:52:47Come on.
00:52:48Do I get a bonus?
00:52:49A bonus?
00:52:50You get a bonus, a raise and a kiss.
00:52:52Well, by peeking through the keyhole I found out that Mr. Grover takes his coffee black,
00:52:57listens in on Amos and Andy and he wears pink suspenders.
00:53:03Come on, get off the comic page.
00:53:05Where did you dig up that kid?
00:53:06Oh, he told me under a cabbage leaf.
00:53:09Ah, what a chance you passed up.
00:53:12You'll never make a newspaper woman.
00:53:14Am I fired?
00:53:15No.
00:53:16I still think you'll make a newspaper man.
00:53:18Go on.
00:53:19Give advice.
00:53:20I still think you'll make a newspaper man.
00:53:23Go on.
00:53:24Give advice.
00:53:25Tell me about it.
00:53:26Goodbye.
00:53:27Bye.
00:53:28All right, guys.
00:53:29Let's go.
00:53:30Go on.
00:53:31Come on.
00:53:32Goodbye.
00:53:33l
00:53:34guns, you got help, okay?
00:53:35All right.
00:53:36Let's go.
00:53:37l
00:53:51THE END
00:54:21THE END
00:54:51THE END
00:55:21Couldn't stake a guy to a broom or seltzer, could you?
00:55:29No, but I could stake you to some good advice.
00:55:32Al, why don't you...
00:55:33I know, I know.
00:55:34Booze and broads and barbershop cords.
00:55:37Who was them ladies I seen you with last night?
00:55:40Them was no ladies, them was...
00:55:43no ladies.
00:55:45When you can't have one, you go for all of them.
00:55:47It don't mean anything.
00:55:50You're different.
00:55:51I'd do anything in the world for you.
00:55:56Well, can I have a couple of days off?
00:55:59No.
00:56:00What for?
00:56:08Oh, I'd like to go to the convention.
00:56:11Still interested in your old boss, huh?
00:56:13Even though he's mud to me.
00:56:14No, it's not that, Al.
00:56:15But I've never been to a convention, and I'd like to see what they're like.
00:56:19And then I thought you might like to have a few paragraphs on the woman's angle.
00:56:23Well, here's a paragraph on the man's angle.
00:56:25How about giving in?
00:56:28Proposition or proposal.
00:56:31With this ring, I do thee wed.
00:56:35I'm not the marrying sort.
00:56:37And I'm not the quitting sort.
00:56:40Irresistible force, that's me.
00:56:42Immovable body, that's me.
00:56:44What happens when they meet?
00:56:45They start a restaurant.
00:56:50What sort of a woman are you, anyway?
00:56:52What are you saving yourself for?
00:56:55I'm just a newspaper punk, but I could be somebody with a woman like you to look up to, to brag to.
00:57:01What do you say, love-lorn?
00:57:02Don't be silly, Al.
00:57:03You're married already.
00:57:05Me?
00:57:05Sure, to your newspaper.
00:57:06That's your sweetheart.
00:57:07That comes first.
00:57:08Always has and always will.
00:57:10No.
00:57:12It's you.
00:57:14Holland.
00:57:15Yeah?
00:57:16It's Dargan.
00:57:17There's a couple of Alkymobs shooting it out over on the south side.
00:57:20Tell them to hold the wire.
00:57:22Hello, Ike.
00:57:28Yeah.
00:57:29Yeah.
00:57:29Great.
00:57:30Sure, grab a cab.
00:57:32Hey, Pham.
00:57:33Get a couple of Alkymobs down there right away.
00:57:35Brown.
00:57:35Lee.
00:57:36Carson.
00:57:37Get Carson.
00:57:38Somebody's in the washroom.
00:57:39Come on.
00:57:39Get along.
00:57:43Come on.
00:57:50Get along.
00:58:21Oh, Daddy, I just know you're going to win.
00:58:28Would you hold that pole, please?
00:58:35The nomination's in the bag.
00:58:37Oh, boy.
00:58:39I made a special request to be seated behind you.
00:58:42I wanted to see how a forecaster behaves when he has a full house.
00:58:48I'm ready.
00:58:50Ladies and gentlemen, you have been introduced
00:59:05and listened to many capable men here today.
00:59:09But the next speaker, a candidate for the nomination
00:59:12for governor of the state, is a man who needs no introduction.
00:59:28He has served the people faithfully
00:59:31for 20 years in very capacity.
00:59:36But his success as a human being,
00:59:41as a husband, as a father,
00:59:44and as a citizen,
00:59:46has been even greater.
00:59:48I need not speak his name,
01:00:06but I take great pleasure
01:00:08in presenting the man
01:00:10who, before this convention is over,
01:00:12will carry the standard of the party
01:00:15to victory at the polls.
01:00:17The man who will soon bear the title
01:00:19in honor, the governor.
01:00:22Go, please do this right now.
01:00:28Go!
01:00:35And he's gonna be in honor.
01:00:35It was all about.

01:01:19His Honour, the Governor.
01:01:34His Honour, the Governor.
01:01:44Whose public life has only been exceeded by the integrity of his private life.
01:01:49Oh, Bob, you were grand today.
01:01:51His Honour, the Governor.
01:01:59His Honour, the Hypocrite.
01:02:06Bob, what's the matter?
01:02:09Don't be like this tonight.
01:02:11Put your arms around me.
01:02:13This is the grandest moment of my life.
01:02:16Well, it might have meant something if you'd been with me.
01:02:18But I was.
01:02:18Yes, up in the gallery.
01:02:20Oh, Bob.
01:02:21His Honour, the Governor.
01:02:22I used three taxis to sneak down here tonight.
01:02:25Afraid somebody would follow me.
01:02:26Afraid somebody would find out.
01:02:27I'm through, I tell you.
01:02:29I'm going to do something that I should have done years ago.
01:02:30Now, please, darling.
01:02:33Why?
01:02:34Why, I've taken your life almost as though I were a murderer.
01:02:36Oh, I've been happy.
01:02:37Honest, I have.
01:02:39Watching you go ahead and feeling as though I had something to do with it.
01:02:42Something to do with it, why, you've had everything to do with it and got nothing out of it.
01:02:45To see you go ahead, is that nothing?
01:02:48I've watched you step by step go up.
01:02:51Your Honours have been my Honours.
01:02:53Your success has been my success.
01:02:55That's my pay, my reward.
01:02:57I'm not going to let you take it away from me.
01:02:59You'll get to the top, Bob.
01:03:01Nothing can stop you.
01:03:02Nothing but a sense of decency and Mr. Al Holland.
01:03:06Oh, Holland can't hurt you.
01:03:08I won't give him a chance.
01:03:09I'll beat him to it.
01:03:10Well, he sat up there on the platform this afternoon with all those people and sat up there and was riding me.
01:03:19My worst enemy, but he told the truth.
01:03:21He dared me to do the right thing.
01:03:23Oh, but Bob, you are doing the right thing.
01:03:25I'm coming out in the open, Lulu.
01:03:27When I sat on that platform today with those people cheering me, I felt just as low as a snake.
01:03:31I wanted to get up and tell the truth, but I'm too much of a coward.
01:03:34I've always been too much of a coward.
01:03:36Oh, no, Bob.
01:03:37And then you've been changing from place to place like a camp follower so nobody would know.
01:03:40We've lived like a couple of thieves, and what crime have we committed?
01:03:43I can't go it anymore.
01:03:44Shh, Bob, be quiet.
01:03:46I don't mind it anymore.
01:03:47I'm used to it.
01:03:49Besides, I won't let you tear down a career.
01:03:51Career?
01:03:51I don't want a career.
01:03:52All I want is you and the rest can go to...
01:03:53Oh, Bob, listen.
01:03:56Can't you say it's too late?
01:03:57We don't count anymore.
01:04:00How about your wife?
01:04:01She hasn't hurt anybody.
01:04:03You owe her something.
01:04:04Dear, I'm tired of hearing of what I owe her.
01:04:06I've paid and I've paid plenty.
01:04:08Look what I owe you.
01:04:08Oh, but what about Roberta?
01:04:10She's engaged to be married.
01:04:11Dear, if it makes any difference to him, he's not worth marrying.
01:04:14Dear, I've got to do it.
01:04:15I don't sleep anymore, and I'm sick inside.
01:04:18This is the one time when I've made up my own mind.
01:04:21And whether you like it or not, dear, I'm going through with it.
01:04:23All right, Bob.
01:04:50What are we going to do?
01:04:51Oh, dear, we'll run away, dear.
01:04:54We'll go back to Havana.
01:04:56We'll be 66 or 99 again.
01:05:00Whatever you say, dear.
01:05:04Sweetheart.
01:05:13Yeah?
01:05:14Now, lay off for spelling his name.
01:05:16The guy apologized.
01:05:17Yeah.
01:05:19Now, listen, you guys.
01:05:20We've uncovered some real dope, and I want you guys to get busy on it.
01:05:23It's the biggest thing that ever hit us.
01:05:24You know what I mean.
01:05:26We've finally got the name of the hospital where the child was born, and the name of the
01:05:29mother.
01:05:29Jane Doe.
01:05:31Yeah?
01:05:32Now, save that for the final edition.
01:05:34Yeah.
01:05:35So between the three of you, you ought to be able to find out who Jane Doe is.
01:05:39I know a haystack where we can find a swell needle.
01:05:42I'm going in for crystal gazing myself.
01:05:44So it's too much for you.
01:05:46I'm running a school for journalism, am I?
01:05:48I've got to lead you guys around by the nose, do I, and show you.
01:05:51Now, listen here, you fellas.
01:05:52Get this through your thick skulls.
01:05:54I want the name of the nurse who handled the case.
01:05:56I want to get her right here in this office.
01:05:58If she squawks, promise her anything.
01:06:00I want a photostatic copy of the birth certificate and the hospital admission card.
01:06:03I want you to find out what became of Jane Doe after she left the hospital, where she went,
01:06:07where she worked, what she did.
01:06:08I want Jane Doe right here in this office.
01:06:11And if you punks can't handle it, I'll find somebody who can.
01:06:14Busy, Mr. Holland.
01:06:15Oh, hello, love lawn.
01:06:16Stick around.
01:06:17Say, boss, what's it all about?
01:06:19Read the record, son, and ask your questions on the outside.
01:06:21I wouldn't trust my own mother with this story.
01:06:24Pat will give you the details.
01:06:26All right, court's adjourned, court's adjourned.
01:06:28What are you doing tomorrow, Al?
01:06:43Running a newspaper.
01:06:46Could you...
01:06:48Could you stop long enough to marry me?
01:06:56Kidding?
01:06:58Not unless you were.
01:07:01Why, all of a sudden?
01:07:04Oh, well.
01:07:05Somebody's got to take me out of the gutter.
01:07:10Come here and give me a kiss.
01:07:28Mind if I print it?
01:07:31Oh, no, I'm doing it for the publicity.
01:07:37Oh, Pat.
01:07:39Got a little squib for you.
01:07:42Managing editor, Wed's love lawn editor.
01:07:45Yeah, me.
01:07:47Yeah, her.
01:07:50Next, next.
01:07:51You can have her picture, though.
01:07:53Yeah.
01:07:54Second page for that.
01:07:55Well, it looks like Grover's our next governor.
01:08:03Complete returns from two-thirds of the counties.
01:08:05Gives him a plurality of 27,000 over Crandall.
01:08:08We'll give you more later.
01:08:10And now, back to the main studio.
01:08:12Don't you like your steak?
01:08:32No, thanks.
01:08:34I'm not hungry.
01:08:36Why aren't you down at the office on election night?
01:08:39Oh, I'm working on a story.
01:08:43You vote today?
01:08:46Yes.
01:08:49A Glover?
01:08:49Well, I may let him be governor for a day at that.
01:08:59No, thanks.
01:09:00What do you mean?
01:09:02I mean the sappy people of this state may elect a double-dealing hypocrite to the governor's chair,
01:09:06but I'm going to knock him out of it.
01:09:09Toast?
01:09:10You seem to be awfully positive.
01:09:12Right.
01:09:12Right.
01:09:15I've been working on a hunch, but now I've got the proof.
01:09:19Proof of what, Al?
01:09:27On the level.
01:09:28Do you really love me?
01:09:32I married you.
01:09:36Proof of what, Al?
01:09:46Proof of what?
01:09:49Proof that Grover's adopted daughter is his, but not his wife's.
01:09:54Proof that he's been living with another woman all these years.
01:09:57I've got everything but a confession.
01:10:00And I'm working on that now.
01:10:0220 years ago, a woman named Jane Doe registered at a maternity hospital.
01:10:13There's a photograph of her admission card, signed in her own handwriting.
01:10:17Exhibit B, the receipt for your last salary check at the record, signed in your own handwriting.
01:10:23See, a photostatic copy of the birth certificate of the child born to Jane Doe named Roberta.
01:10:29And this.
01:10:32A photograph, which I found in your trunk, of you and your boyfriend making Hoopie in Havana.
01:10:43Nice story.
01:10:46Nice story about me, but what's it got to do with Grover?
01:10:50You've learned something working for the record, haven't you?
01:10:56But let me read you a letter which was addressed to you, but which you never received.
01:11:01Dear Lula,
01:11:01You who kept faith with me for 20 years walked out on me when I needed you most.
01:11:08Perhaps you're right.
01:11:10Perhaps we're too old now.
01:11:12Or have we combed enough wreckage out of our lives?
01:11:15Your marriage to Holland, my worst enemy,
01:11:19saves my wife her pride and my daughter, your daughter, her good name.
01:11:25But it deprives me for the rest of my life
01:11:28of the happiness which, like the hypocrite I've learned to be,
01:11:31I now wish you, Bob.
01:11:33Give me that letter. It's mine. You stole it.
01:11:35Stole it? Of course I stole it.
01:11:37I'd commit murder for a story like that.
01:11:40Oh, Al, listen, please.
01:11:41You can do anything you want to with me,
01:11:43but don't print that story.
01:11:45It'll only hurt a lot of people and it won't help anybody.
01:11:47It'll help me to forget what a sucker I've been.
01:11:49You married me to keep Grover from spilling his guts.
01:11:51No, Al.
01:11:52You'd have married anybody.
01:11:52Oh, please, you've got to understand, Al.
01:11:55Grover hasn't been well.
01:11:56May 2-800.
01:11:57He's a sick man.
01:11:58We'll have our laps in the morning.
01:11:59Oh, Al, please listen to me.
01:11:59I always knew he had a skeleton in the closet.
01:12:01What a sucker.
01:12:02Al, you've got to listen to me now, please.
01:12:04My daughter doesn't know anything about this.
01:12:06She's engaged to be married.
01:12:07I know why you married me.
01:12:09Hello?
01:12:09Give me the city desk.
01:12:11Grover told you to, didn't he?
01:12:12He knew I was getting the goods on him.
01:12:13Thought he could keep my mouth shut this way.
01:12:14Is that it?
01:12:15No, no, no.
01:12:16Believe me, Al.
01:12:16I married you to keep him from resigning.
01:12:18Al, you've got to listen to me.
01:12:20Oh, Pat, this is Holland.
01:12:21Hold everything.
01:12:22I'm coming right over.
01:12:23I'll need the whole front page.
01:12:23I can't do anything like that.
01:12:25Never mind the election.
01:12:26Keep your shirt on.
01:12:27I'll tell you when I get there.
01:12:27Oh, Al, don't you understand?
01:12:29It'll only hurt you, too.
01:12:30I'm your wife.
01:12:31What do you mean, wife?
01:12:32Every time you kissed me, you thought of him, didn't you?
01:12:34Didn't you?
01:12:35I'm not as good as he is, am I?
01:12:36No, no.
01:12:37All right, when I'm through with him, you can have what's left of him.
01:12:39You can kiss him all you want.
01:12:40You give me that letter, then.
01:12:41I don't think you'd do anything like that.
01:12:43Give it to me.
01:12:44Are you...
01:12:45Wait a minute, Al.
01:13:11If you'll hold that pose, I'll send him a photographer.
01:13:20Al.
01:13:20Al.
01:13:32Put that gun down, Lula.
01:13:33Lula, give me that gun.
01:13:47Give me that gun.
01:13:48Mr. Thompson, Mr. Thompson, Mr. Thompson.
01:14:18Somebody's shooting.
01:14:19Yes, on my floor.
01:14:37Hold everything, folks.
01:14:40Crandall concedes victory.
01:14:42Grover elected governor by an overwhelming majority.
01:14:44The governor got out of a sickbed to say a few words to you.
01:14:48And here he is now.
01:14:49Governor Grover.
01:14:51I'm too excited to say very much.
01:14:53But I want to thank all the good people who made my election possible.
01:15:00Open the door.
01:15:02Open the door.
01:15:06Open the door.
01:15:08Yeah, this is Wilkins calling from the Capitol.
01:15:16Yeah.
01:15:17No, there's nothing new.
01:15:18The governor's condition is still the same.
01:15:20Yeah.
01:15:21All right.
01:15:22It's 8 to 5.
01:15:23He kicks off for the afternoon papers.
01:15:25He always did hate the record.
01:15:26I'll take that bet.
01:15:27Yeah, well, you won't catch me in any odds.
01:15:29He's the kind that's liable to hang on for another year.
01:15:31Say, you newspaper guys will like a lot about you.
01:15:34Always hanging around waiting for someone to die.
01:15:37Hey, Pop, how long have you been dead?
01:15:42Don't go in, Arton.
01:15:43Don't go in.
01:15:44But he sent for me, Doctor.
01:15:46All right, all right.
01:15:47But just a moment at the most.
01:15:48The man doesn't know how sick he is.
01:15:50I'll not be long.
01:15:51How are you feeling, sir?
01:16:08What kept you?
01:16:09Arguing with that fool doctor again, eh?
01:16:12Well, he didn't want me to stay too long.
01:16:14Is she on her way?
01:16:15She's down in my car now, sir.
01:16:17Well, why didn't you bring her up with you?
01:16:19Well, the reporters.
01:16:21There's been so much talk about you pardoning her in less than a year.
01:16:26After all, she is a murderess.
01:16:28Well, let them talk.
01:16:29I'm still the governor.
01:16:31I should have pardoned her the first week.
01:16:34Bring her right in here.
01:16:35Yes, sir.
01:16:36Oh, Arton.
01:16:37Yes, sir.
01:16:38Have you a pen and paper?
01:16:39Yes, sir.
01:16:45Can I help you, sir?
01:16:46No, let me alone.
01:16:48I had a cable from Europe.
01:16:50Your wife and daughter are sailing at once.
01:16:52Yes, yes.
01:16:53Bring Mrs. Holland right up here.
01:16:55Yes, sir.
01:16:55No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:17:55Sixty-six.
01:18:15Ninety-nine.
01:18:17Funny.
01:18:18I was on my back the first time you met, wasn't I?
01:18:23Let me look at you. Look here.
01:18:25You know, you haven't changed.
01:18:36You still look beautiful.
01:18:41You look fine yourself, Bob.
01:18:43I should have gone to prison instead of you, but you never would let me do anything for you, would you?
01:18:51You mustn't talk, dear.
01:18:56Breathe, Esther.
01:18:57You'll never leave me anymore.
01:19:09Will you, Lulu?
01:19:10Never.
01:19:10You were right, Bob.
01:19:16We should have gone away together.
01:19:18I thought about it a lot in prison.
01:19:22All the fun we missed because I was stubborn and obstinate.
01:19:29But it isn't too late, dear.
01:19:31Let's make a deal.
01:19:32Let's make a deal.
01:19:34You get well.
01:19:36And I'll run away with you.
01:19:39We'll go back to Havana on our honeymoon.
01:19:43Wasn't it a grand holiday the last time?
01:19:48The first time?
01:19:52Remember the time we played roulette?
01:19:54And then the next day, I lost all our winnings on the horse.
01:20:00And then we had champagne.
01:20:04Remember the toast you drank to me?
01:20:08To the world's best loser.
01:20:13Remember, 99?
01:20:14Bob.
01:20:23Bob.
01:20:28Bob.
01:20:30Bob.
01:20:34The governor passed on at 2.25 p.m.
01:20:36Joe, the governor passed away at 2.25 p.m.
01:20:38I got the eight bucks you owe me, Romer.
01:20:39City desk, governor died at 2.25 p.m.
01:20:41Robert died at 2.25 p.m.
01:20:42He passed on at 2.25.
01:20:44The governor passed away at 2.25 this afternoon.
01:20:48The end is peaceful.
01:20:49Yes.
01:20:49That's hot.
01:21:12Mass OK.
