1
00:00:05,929 --> 00:00:09,046
Hello? Oh, hi, Shirley.
2
00:00:09,349 --> 00:00:13,342
Yeah, well, of course I sound happy.
My husband just told me he loves me.
3
00:00:14,604 --> 00:00:17,596
Oh, you won't be able to have
the rally at your house tonight?
4
00:00:17,899 --> 00:00:20,208
Well, of course we can have it here.
5
00:00:20,484 --> 00:00:22,679
No, no, Darrin won't mind.
6
00:00:22,945 --> 00:00:26,335
He likes me to do things like that,
very civic-minded.
7
00:00:26,657 --> 00:00:29,091
He just told me he was proud of me.
8
00:00:29,368 --> 00:00:31,723
No, no. No trouble at all.
9
00:00:31,995 --> 00:00:33,713
Bye.
10
00:00:41,796 --> 00:00:44,105
- What about the library?
- Find a seat, please.
11
00:00:44,382 --> 00:00:46,452
Would you take a seat, please?
12
00:00:46,718 --> 00:00:48,356
Pardon me.
13
00:00:50,513 --> 00:00:53,152
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,
I'm so glad you could come.
14
00:00:53,432 --> 00:00:56,469
It is my privilege to introduce to you
the man who will soon be...
15
00:00:56,769 --> 00:00:59,044
...the next councilman for
Morning Glory Circle...
16
00:00:59,355 --> 00:01:01,789
...Mr. Ed Wright.
17
00:01:09,531 --> 00:01:12,170
Thanks for a warm reception.
And to you, Mrs. Stephens...
18
00:01:12,450 --> 00:01:14,327
...for use of your home
on short notice.
19
00:01:14,577 --> 00:01:17,694
I appreciate your taking time
out of your busy lives to come here...
20
00:01:17,997 --> 00:01:20,033
...so we could talk about my campaign.
21
00:01:20,291 --> 00:01:23,169
We are all familiar with the record
of John C. Cavanaugh.
22
00:01:23,503 --> 00:01:27,576
I don't think it's necessary to warn
you as citizens of this community...
23
00:01:27,965 --> 00:01:31,321
...as to the consequences of putting
this man in office for another term.
24
00:01:31,635 --> 00:01:34,354
We have been handled and
manoeuvred to suit the purposes...
25
00:01:34,638 --> 00:01:38,153
...of the present administration, and
I think it's about time we stopped...
26
00:01:38,475 --> 00:01:40,227
- Hi.
- Hi.
27
00:01:41,269 --> 00:01:43,146
- What is all this?
- Isn't it exciting?
28
00:01:43,396 --> 00:01:45,466
- I was gonna call you.
- Call me about what?
29
00:01:45,732 --> 00:01:48,121
What are all those people doing here?
30
00:01:49,027 --> 00:01:52,542
- Darrin, you're gonna be proud of me.
- Are you sure?
31
00:01:52,864 --> 00:01:55,173
You've wanted me to be active
in the community...
32
00:01:55,450 --> 00:01:58,965
...and be interested in civic affairs.
- Yes, honey, but all those people...
33
00:01:59,287 --> 00:02:02,165
There's a lot going on in this town
that you don't know about.
34
00:02:02,540 --> 00:02:05,771
There's a lot going on in this house
I don't know about.
35
00:02:06,085 --> 00:02:09,680
Shirley was having the Ed Wright
for Councilman meeting at her place.
36
00:02:10,005 --> 00:02:12,599
But then she couldn't,
so I said we could have it here.
37
00:02:12,883 --> 00:02:15,397
Darrin, he's wonderful,
and you should hear him speak.
38
00:02:15,677 --> 00:02:20,387
He's a Korean War veteran, a graduate
lawyer, and he's very bright.
39
00:02:20,765 --> 00:02:23,723
So really, I know he'll be
wonderful for Morning Glory Circle.
40
00:02:24,018 --> 00:02:25,770
That's why I knew
you'd be proud of me.
41
00:02:26,062 --> 00:02:27,381
Hold it, honey, hold it.
42
00:02:33,486 --> 00:02:36,398
...and when he comes home,
he doesn't like a lot of people around.
43
00:03:31,582 --> 00:03:33,732
My opponent,
John C. Cavanaugh...
44
00:03:34,001 --> 00:03:37,232
...has been dipping his fingers
into city funds for too long.
45
00:03:37,546 --> 00:03:40,014
Why is it that no outside company...
46
00:03:40,299 --> 00:03:43,894
...has ever managed to secure
a bid for any civic project?
47
00:03:44,261 --> 00:03:48,254
The roads, parks, schools,
the auditorium, the library...
48
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:54,476
...all built by firms owned totally,
or in part, by John C. Cavanaugh.
49
00:03:56,398 --> 00:03:59,549
The IJ Fentris Cement
and Concrete Company...
50
00:03:59,859 --> 00:04:01,770
...they helped build
our elementary school.
51
00:04:02,028 --> 00:04:05,304
Its fa�ade collapsed
within two years, remember?
52
00:04:05,615 --> 00:04:09,688
Cavanaugh talked about
an investigation. There never was one.
53
00:04:10,036 --> 00:04:11,594
The Oster-Halth Pipe Company...
54
00:04:11,829 --> 00:04:16,698
...he gave them the contract
to lay our leaking gas mains.
55
00:04:17,418 --> 00:04:22,651
And the construction engineers who
designed our deteriorating library.
56
00:04:24,675 --> 00:04:27,826
And now, the costliest project of all:
57
00:04:28,136 --> 00:04:32,209
The Morning Glory Circle
storm drain and water system.
58
00:04:33,391 --> 00:04:35,666
Here, photocopies.
59
00:04:35,935 --> 00:04:38,972
Photocopies of those contracts
granted to the same incompetents...
60
00:04:39,272 --> 00:04:43,424
...by John C. Cavanaugh. Now this
is a sort of thing, we, you and I...
61
00:04:43,776 --> 00:04:47,166
...have to put a stop to
once and for all.
62
00:04:50,366 --> 00:04:52,641
Abner, isn't it wonderful?
63
00:04:52,910 --> 00:04:56,823
Not bad. The potato salad
is a little salty.
64
00:04:58,623 --> 00:05:01,137
You mean Cavanaugh has
been getting away with murder...
65
00:05:01,418 --> 00:05:04,216
...for the past 10 or 12 years?
- As far as we can tell, yes.
66
00:05:04,504 --> 00:05:07,576
I've pushed for an investigation
since the start of the campaign.
67
00:05:08,299 --> 00:05:10,130
That is the crummiest thing
I ever heard.
68
00:05:10,385 --> 00:05:14,014
It should be obvious to any schoolkid
that the entire improvement program...
69
00:05:14,347 --> 00:05:16,577
Well, it's a Cavanaugh monopoly.
70
00:05:16,849 --> 00:05:20,364
Darrin, it's getting awfully late.
Mr. Wright must be dead tired.
71
00:05:20,728 --> 00:05:23,720
Well, I am getting a bit weary,
but having interested someone...
72
00:05:24,023 --> 00:05:26,537
...as enthusiastic as yourself,
I can sit up all night.
73
00:05:26,817 --> 00:05:30,526
Strange what goes on in the community
without you knowing anything about it.
74
00:05:31,196 --> 00:05:33,187
That's what I said.
75
00:05:33,448 --> 00:05:35,279
That's where I heard it.
76
00:05:35,533 --> 00:05:39,367
Darrin, this water project is the straw
that could break Cavanaugh's back.
77
00:05:39,746 --> 00:05:41,657
Make that the focal point
of your campaign.
78
00:05:41,914 --> 00:05:43,393
That's what I'm trying to do.
79
00:05:43,624 --> 00:05:46,343
I've got an idea to run off posters
at the office tomorrow.
80
00:05:46,627 --> 00:05:49,505
That would be fine, Darrin, fine.
I'd really appreciate it.
81
00:05:49,797 --> 00:05:54,632
- Well, good night, everybody.
- Good night, Mrs. Stephens.
82
00:05:55,010 --> 00:05:56,966
Good night, sweetheart.
83
00:05:57,221 --> 00:05:59,860
Maybe a sketch of Cavanaugh
with his thumb in the dike...
84
00:06:00,140 --> 00:06:01,892
...dressed up like a little Dutch boy.
85
00:06:02,142 --> 00:06:05,214
We'll figure out some kind of slogan
to go along with it, maybe...
86
00:06:05,562 --> 00:06:08,395
Politics doesn't make
strange bedfellows.
87
00:06:08,690 --> 00:06:11,648
Doesn't make any bedfellows at all.
88
00:06:59,405 --> 00:07:01,361
Great, Darrin. Just great.
89
00:07:01,615 --> 00:07:04,129
These are for the straight
campaign 24 sheets.
90
00:07:04,409 --> 00:07:06,206
Has to be a certain amount
of hard sell.
91
00:07:06,453 --> 00:07:08,762
- It's traditional, people expect it.
- I suppose so.
92
00:07:09,039 --> 00:07:10,597
Now, for the subtler taste...
93
00:07:10,832 --> 00:07:14,791
...we have these cartoon layouts.
I think they'll be very effective.
94
00:07:15,253 --> 00:07:19,451
Now, that one I like. Little Dutch boy,
Cavanaugh, with his finger in the dike.
95
00:07:19,799 --> 00:07:24,998
Now the caption reads, " Portrait of
a hero with his fingers in everything."
96
00:07:26,264 --> 00:07:28,937
I've told everyone about
how much help you've been...
97
00:07:29,225 --> 00:07:32,661
...and intimated you were practically
my campaign manager.
98
00:07:33,103 --> 00:07:36,140
Well, if that's what you want,
you've got it.
99
00:07:37,107 --> 00:07:38,620
Okay.
100
00:07:42,571 --> 00:07:46,200
Mr. Cavanaugh, the latest polls show
a 16-percent change in Wright's favour.
101
00:07:46,533 --> 00:07:49,650
- How significant do you feel that to be?
- Not very.
102
00:07:49,953 --> 00:07:52,513
How much do you think the
water project controversies...
103
00:07:52,789 --> 00:07:55,098
...had to do with Wright's
popularity upswing?
104
00:07:55,666 --> 00:07:56,655
Controversy?
105
00:07:56,876 --> 00:07:58,946
He labels it the key issue
of the campaign.
106
00:07:59,211 --> 00:08:02,681
Well, I can't be held accountable
for Mr. Wright's labels.
107
00:08:03,007 --> 00:08:05,157
What about the governor's
investigation, sir?
108
00:08:05,426 --> 00:08:07,860
- What about it?
- Will there be one?
109
00:08:08,262 --> 00:08:10,696
I doubt seriously that
the governor will be coerced...
110
00:08:10,973 --> 00:08:13,203
...into wasting his time
and the state's money...
111
00:08:13,475 --> 00:08:17,991
...by the irresponsible accusations
of a politically ambitious youngster.
112
00:08:18,355 --> 00:08:21,711
We can be proud of the finest,
most modern, most efficient...
113
00:08:22,025 --> 00:08:25,017
...water and storm drain system
in the country. Be assured...
114
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,676
...it will serve the citizens of this
community long after Mr. Wright...
115
00:08:28,990 --> 00:08:32,505
...and John C. Cavanaugh
are gone and forgotten.
116
00:08:46,631 --> 00:08:48,587
That was
Councilman John C. Cavanaugh.
117
00:08:48,842 --> 00:08:51,561
And this is Charles Turner
from the steps of City Hall.
118
00:08:51,845 --> 00:08:53,915
Now we return you
to the station and more...
119
00:08:54,180 --> 00:08:56,614
Pretty sure of yourself,
aren't you, Mr. Cavanaugh?
120
00:08:56,891 --> 00:08:59,803
Well, you just better
watch your step, because:
121
00:09:00,103 --> 00:09:03,732
We are the bright girls
Rally round for Wright, girls
122
00:09:05,483 --> 00:09:08,156
That isn't funny, Mother.
123
00:09:08,444 --> 00:09:10,560
On the contrary, it's hysterical.
124
00:09:10,821 --> 00:09:14,939
What was that incantation
you were gyrating through?
125
00:09:15,284 --> 00:09:17,275
That isn't an incantation,
it's a cheer.
126
00:09:17,577 --> 00:09:19,772
- What does it do?
- It doesn't do anything.
127
00:09:20,038 --> 00:09:23,997
- Then why were you doing it?
- Because you see, Mother, in...
128
00:09:24,417 --> 00:09:28,092
- Never mind, you wouldn't understand.
- Oh, dear, Samantha.
129
00:09:28,421 --> 00:09:31,731
Every time I see you, you seem to be
getting more and more confused.
130
00:09:32,050 --> 00:09:35,326
I'm going to a political rally tonight.
What's so confusing about that?
131
00:09:35,678 --> 00:09:37,589
Politics?
132
00:09:37,847 --> 00:09:40,202
You, in politics?
133
00:09:40,474 --> 00:09:43,386
Well, you needn't laugh.
Politics is a very serious business.
134
00:09:43,686 --> 00:09:45,677
Only to politicians, my dear child.
135
00:09:45,938 --> 00:09:48,498
My husband happens
to be very proud of me.
136
00:09:48,774 --> 00:09:51,129
- For what?
- For taking a position.
137
00:09:51,693 --> 00:09:55,845
I don't know what you're talking about.
And neither do you.
138
00:09:56,197 --> 00:09:59,348
You know, it surprises me sometimes
how unaware you can be...
139
00:09:59,659 --> 00:10:02,332
...for having lived
as long as you have.
140
00:10:02,620 --> 00:10:04,895
Don't be vulgar, Samantha.
141
00:10:05,206 --> 00:10:08,243
Well, it's true. Now, if you'll
excuse me, I have to go get ready.
142
00:10:08,542 --> 00:10:11,818
I suppose all this was Darwin's idea.
143
00:10:12,588 --> 00:10:16,820
Mother, Darwin's idea was that man
was descended from apes.
144
00:10:17,176 --> 00:10:21,408
- This was my idea.
- Descended from the ape?
145
00:10:21,763 --> 00:10:23,640
Man?
146
00:10:24,182 --> 00:10:27,333
It's called the theory of evolution.
147
00:10:29,854 --> 00:10:32,732
Pity to disillusion him.
148
00:10:33,191 --> 00:10:36,342
Other way around, actually.
149
00:10:38,696 --> 00:10:42,211
And it is no longer a secret,
my friends and fellow citizens...
150
00:10:42,533 --> 00:10:45,923
...that John C. Cavanaugh
and his whole corrupt machine...
151
00:10:46,245 --> 00:10:47,519
...are on their way out.
152
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:54,155
I know it and you know it, and what's
more, John C. Cavanaugh knows it.
153
00:11:01,051 --> 00:11:05,602
The people will be fooled for just so
long, then they demand a reckoning.
154
00:11:05,972 --> 00:11:09,806
Too many important issues
have been pushed aside unanswered.
155
00:11:10,143 --> 00:11:12,020
Too many real
and challenging problems...
156
00:11:12,270 --> 00:11:14,500
...have gone unheeded and unsolved.
157
00:11:14,772 --> 00:11:16,888
Too many private interests
have been served...
158
00:11:17,149 --> 00:11:20,903
...and too many public interests
have gone unsatisfied.
159
00:11:25,574 --> 00:11:27,849
I say to John C. Cavanaugh:
160
00:11:28,118 --> 00:11:31,952
"We want answers
and we want them now."
161
00:11:32,330 --> 00:11:36,369
Stand up with me before the people,
before all the people...
162
00:11:36,709 --> 00:11:41,021
...and give me the answers
I want to ask in your behalf.
163
00:11:43,466 --> 00:11:45,422
Any time between now
and Election Day...
164
00:11:45,676 --> 00:11:48,668
...I have offered to meet Mr. Cavanaugh
in a television debate...
165
00:11:49,180 --> 00:11:53,696
...to discuss every issue,
in the open, no punches pulled.
166
00:11:54,059 --> 00:11:56,095
And I mean every issue...
167
00:11:56,353 --> 00:12:00,904
...including the Morning Glory Circle
water and storm drain project.
168
00:12:23,295 --> 00:12:26,173
Whoever delivered
Mr. Cavanaugh's message...
169
00:12:26,465 --> 00:12:31,414
...you can tell him it'll take more
than an omelet to keep me off his back.
170
00:12:38,935 --> 00:12:42,007
Abner, did you ever hear
such a wonderful speechmaker?
171
00:12:42,313 --> 00:12:43,951
Abner, did you ever?
172
00:12:44,190 --> 00:12:47,182
Abner. Abner.
173
00:12:48,277 --> 00:12:51,633
I can't hear a thing, Gladys.
I'm wearing earmuffs.
174
00:12:51,948 --> 00:12:55,145
You ready to go home?
My hands are freezing.
175
00:13:10,173 --> 00:13:12,971
I have just been handed
the late edition of the Gazette.
176
00:13:13,259 --> 00:13:15,648
The governor has ordered
a complete investigation...
177
00:13:15,929 --> 00:13:17,965
...of the water main
and storm drain project.
178
00:13:18,222 --> 00:13:21,339
What do you say to that, Cavanaugh?
179
00:13:48,751 --> 00:13:51,470
Ten seconds to airtime, and
Cavanaugh hasn't shown up yet.
180
00:13:51,754 --> 00:13:55,588
- You don't think he will, do you?
- I doubt it, Ed's as good as elected.
181
00:13:58,636 --> 00:14:00,228
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
182
00:14:00,471 --> 00:14:02,621
For the past two weeks,
Councilman Cavanaugh...
183
00:14:02,890 --> 00:14:06,485
...has ignored my invitation to appear
with me on tonight's program.
184
00:14:06,852 --> 00:14:09,764
A debate under these circumstances
would seem impossible.
185
00:14:10,063 --> 00:14:12,019
But, present or not...
186
00:14:12,274 --> 00:14:15,710
...one day Mr. Cavanaugh will be
forced to answer these questions.
187
00:14:16,027 --> 00:14:17,585
One...
188
00:14:17,821 --> 00:14:20,619
...now that an investigation
is already underway...
189
00:14:20,907 --> 00:14:23,979
...what excuse can he
offer for an administration...
190
00:14:24,285 --> 00:14:28,164
...corrupt with nepotism, graft
and private interests?
191
00:14:28,539 --> 00:14:31,337
If we can take those allegations
one at a time, Mr. Wright...
192
00:14:31,625 --> 00:14:35,300
...perhaps I can deal with them
to your satisfaction.
193
00:14:37,339 --> 00:14:40,058
Now, shall we go from
the beginning, Mr. Wright?
194
00:14:40,342 --> 00:14:45,462
You have accused me of nepotism,
graft, corruption...
195
00:14:45,847 --> 00:14:47,917
...and... How did you put it?
- Double talk.
196
00:14:48,225 --> 00:14:52,855
I've also been accused of blocking
investigations and obstructing justice.
197
00:14:53,229 --> 00:14:57,825
Perhaps we can clarify what seems to
be the main issue in this campaign.
198
00:14:58,484 --> 00:15:00,520
We would all appreciate
that, Mr. Cavanaugh.
199
00:15:00,820 --> 00:15:04,335
Fine, now let me not waste
any more of our viewers' time.
200
00:15:04,657 --> 00:15:08,127
Ladies and gentlemen, it's my pleasure
to present Mr. Merrill Sedgwick...
201
00:15:08,452 --> 00:15:11,524
...who, ironically, is here tonight
at my opponent's instigation.
202
00:15:11,830 --> 00:15:13,661
Mr. Sedgwick is from
the state capitol...
203
00:15:13,916 --> 00:15:16,191
...a member of the governor's
investigatory staff.
204
00:15:16,585 --> 00:15:19,418
Mr. Sedgwick, Mr. Wright.
205
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,474
Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Sedgwick.
206
00:15:22,757 --> 00:15:25,146
We are honoured to welcome
a distinguished member...
207
00:15:25,427 --> 00:15:28,260
...of the governor's committee
to Morning Glory Circle.
208
00:15:29,555 --> 00:15:32,627
I've spent the past two weeks
quietly investigating...
209
00:15:32,934 --> 00:15:36,643
...Morning Glory Circle's
new water system from stem to stern...
210
00:15:36,979 --> 00:15:42,576
...and I have nothing but praise for its
planning, construction and materials.
211
00:15:42,985 --> 00:15:46,898
Moreover, I'm astonished
at the conservative low cost.
212
00:15:47,239 --> 00:15:50,993
This fine water system should last
for many, many years.
213
00:15:51,368 --> 00:15:54,041
It has my unqualified endorsement.
214
00:15:54,371 --> 00:15:56,202
Thank you.
215
00:15:58,750 --> 00:16:03,380
My appreciation, Mr. Wright,
for this opportunity afforded me...
216
00:16:03,755 --> 00:16:06,064
...to set the record straight.
217
00:16:06,716 --> 00:16:09,310
Good night, my fellow citizens.
218
00:16:15,599 --> 00:16:18,193
If I've said it once,
I've said it a thousand times:
219
00:16:18,477 --> 00:16:20,433
Women should not
get mixed up in politics.
220
00:16:20,687 --> 00:16:23,042
- You never said it to me.
- Don't split hairs, Sam.
221
00:16:23,315 --> 00:16:26,352
You could've found out if Wright
knew what he was talking about...
222
00:16:26,651 --> 00:16:30,326
...before dragging me into this mess.
- I didn't drag you in, Darrin.
223
00:16:30,697 --> 00:16:32,176
Did I not come home weeks ago...
224
00:16:32,407 --> 00:16:34,841
...and find my living room
full of women screaming:
225
00:16:35,118 --> 00:16:38,554
"We are the bright girls
Rally round for Wright, girls"?
226
00:16:39,205 --> 00:16:41,878
I was only trying to be
part of the community.
227
00:16:42,166 --> 00:16:45,158
You said you were proud when
I took an interest in civic affairs.
228
00:16:45,503 --> 00:16:49,416
So I was wrong. I'm not so perfect
that I can't be wrong once in a while.
229
00:16:49,757 --> 00:16:53,830
The truth of the matter is, Cavanaugh
trapped everybody into making...
230
00:16:54,177 --> 00:16:56,771
Go ahead and say it.
"Making fools of themselves."
231
00:16:57,597 --> 00:16:59,508
Wait'll they find out
about this downtown.
232
00:16:59,766 --> 00:17:02,041
I could be finished
in the advertising business.
233
00:17:02,352 --> 00:17:03,705
I don't see why.
234
00:17:03,937 --> 00:17:06,451
What if Cavanaugh sues us
for slander, what then?
235
00:17:06,731 --> 00:17:08,005
He wouldn't do that.
236
00:17:08,691 --> 00:17:11,728
Why wouldn't he? We called him
a thief, didn't we? On television!
237
00:17:12,028 --> 00:17:15,100
And a state investigator proved
he was right and Wright was wrong.
238
00:17:15,406 --> 00:17:18,045
Wright is not wrong,
Cavanaugh is just shrewd.
239
00:17:18,325 --> 00:17:19,394
You bet he's shrewd.
240
00:17:19,618 --> 00:17:22,337
He let us hinge our entire campaign
on that water project...
241
00:17:22,621 --> 00:17:25,340
...knowing it would stand up
under investigation.
242
00:17:25,624 --> 00:17:28,343
Everything else he's done
has been dishonest.
243
00:17:28,627 --> 00:17:30,822
If only they'd investigate
some of those things.
244
00:17:31,087 --> 00:17:33,965
But they didn't, and they have...
245
00:17:35,925 --> 00:17:40,840
Sorry, darling. Mother, meet me
downtown immediately.
246
00:17:45,977 --> 00:17:48,252
- Is that you, Mother?
- Of course, dear.
247
00:17:48,521 --> 00:17:50,751
Have I ever let you down?
248
00:17:51,023 --> 00:17:55,141
We really shouldn't be here, but I
had to find out about Cavanaugh.
249
00:17:56,028 --> 00:18:00,624
Still in politics, Samantha? Oh, really.
250
00:18:00,991 --> 00:18:03,869
- Mother, this is very serious.
- Serious for whom?
251
00:18:04,452 --> 00:18:07,649
- Darrin.
- Oh, he's so naive.
252
00:18:08,206 --> 00:18:11,323
Doesn't he understand that
this latest project of Cavanaugh's...
253
00:18:11,626 --> 00:18:14,663
...is the only legitimate thing
the man has done in his life?
254
00:18:15,004 --> 00:18:16,596
We have no proof of that.
255
00:18:16,881 --> 00:18:19,156
Well, just looking at the man
is proof enough.
256
00:18:19,425 --> 00:18:22,223
We have to have the facts, Mother.
257
00:18:35,816 --> 00:18:37,886
What would you like to know?
258
00:18:38,151 --> 00:18:42,303
The deal on the IJ Fentris
Cement Company.
259
00:18:47,702 --> 00:18:50,216
- There, dear.
- Thank you.
260
00:18:53,707 --> 00:18:55,459
Well?
261
00:18:56,252 --> 00:18:58,004
He's a crook, all right.
262
00:18:58,253 --> 00:19:00,005
Would you get the file
on the gas main?
263
00:19:00,255 --> 00:19:02,371
It was handled by
the Oster-Halth Pipe Company.
264
00:19:02,633 --> 00:19:05,943
- O or P?
- O.
265
00:19:13,726 --> 00:19:15,557
There you are.
266
00:19:19,982 --> 00:19:21,654
Well?
267
00:19:22,401 --> 00:19:23,880
You were right, Mother.
268
00:19:24,111 --> 00:19:26,181
According to these records...
269
00:19:26,447 --> 00:19:28,961
...Darrin and Mr. Wright pounced
on Mr. Cavanaugh...
270
00:19:29,241 --> 00:19:32,039
...at the only time he was honest
in his whole life.
271
00:19:32,369 --> 00:19:36,760
- Oh, that husband of yours is a lulu.
- Mother.
272
00:19:37,124 --> 00:19:41,276
Well, anyway, you know
it's funny, isn't it?
273
00:19:48,843 --> 00:19:50,993
- Shall we go?
- I think we better.
274
00:19:51,262 --> 00:19:54,015
And thanks for your help, Mother.
275
00:19:56,601 --> 00:19:59,513
- Ven't, and they're not going to.
276
00:20:00,980 --> 00:20:05,690
Oh, there's a simple way to handle this,
but Donald wouldn't approve.
277
00:20:06,110 --> 00:20:07,384
On the other hand...
278
00:20:07,611 --> 00:20:10,842
...what he doesn't know
won't hurt him.
279
00:20:23,710 --> 00:20:26,429
Good evening. I'm Abner Kravitz,
civil defence block warden.
280
00:20:26,712 --> 00:20:28,828
- Evening, Mr. Kravitz.
- Evening, Mrs. Stephens.
281
00:20:29,090 --> 00:20:31,081
You don't have to evacuate
your house yet...
282
00:20:31,342 --> 00:20:34,300
...but if I were you,
I would keep my radio on KXIW...
283
00:20:34,595 --> 00:20:38,383
...and keep some warm clothes and
a rubber life raft near the front door.
284
00:20:38,724 --> 00:20:41,363
- Rubber life raft?
- Yeah, don't you have one?
285
00:20:41,685 --> 00:20:43,596
No, what do we need
a rubber life raft for?
286
00:20:43,854 --> 00:20:46,766
A large water main burst
at the corner of Elm and Forest.
287
00:20:47,065 --> 00:20:48,657
Flooded most of the neighbourhood.
288
00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:52,097
They say it's under control,
but I like to be prepared for the worst.
289
00:20:52,946 --> 00:20:56,541
- Water main?
- Yeah, the whole storm drain collapsed.
290
00:20:56,866 --> 00:20:59,334
Excuse me, I've got
a few more houses to go to.
291
00:20:59,619 --> 00:21:02,008
Good night, Mr. Stephens.
Good night, Mrs. Stephens.
292
00:21:02,330 --> 00:21:04,560
Good night, Mr. Kravitz.
293
00:21:06,375 --> 00:21:08,127
Flood, isn't that amazing?
294
00:21:08,377 --> 00:21:12,416
The length that some people
will go to just to win an argument.
295
00:21:12,756 --> 00:21:14,826
- What do you mean?
- How'd you do it?
296
00:21:15,092 --> 00:21:16,445
Just what are you inferring?
297
00:21:16,718 --> 00:21:19,710
Are you gonna stand there
and tell me you're not responsible...
298
00:21:20,013 --> 00:21:23,005
...for twitching up this flood?
- Yes, I am.
299
00:21:23,349 --> 00:21:25,385
Well, that drain didn't burst by itself.
300
00:21:25,643 --> 00:21:27,679
- Good evening.
- Good evening, Mother.
301
00:21:27,937 --> 00:21:30,053
You'll have to excuse us,
we're having a fight.
302
00:21:30,314 --> 00:21:32,350
- What about?
- It doesn't concern you, Endora.
303
00:21:32,608 --> 00:21:35,361
Oh, I'm not so sure about that.
304
00:21:35,653 --> 00:21:38,087
- Have you heard about the flood?
- Oh, now, Mother...
305
00:21:38,364 --> 00:21:42,073
- You mean it was you?
- I'd certainly like to know who else.
306
00:21:42,409 --> 00:21:44,445
Well, what did you do that for?
307
00:21:44,912 --> 00:21:47,949
You've been raving at my daughter.
308
00:21:48,248 --> 00:21:50,762
And everyone else
has been perfectly miserable...
309
00:21:51,084 --> 00:21:53,678
...because a water main hasn't burst.
310
00:21:53,962 --> 00:21:56,192
So I just thought I'd burst one.
311
00:21:56,714 --> 00:21:58,306
What good is that going to do?
312
00:21:58,591 --> 00:22:01,867
Well, it should prove
that Mr. Sedgwick was wrong.
313
00:22:02,178 --> 00:22:05,011
And they'll probably
reopen the investigation...
314
00:22:05,556 --> 00:22:08,548
...and examine all of
Mr. Cavanaugh's past dealings.
315
00:22:08,893 --> 00:22:11,361
That is utter nonsense.
316
00:22:14,523 --> 00:22:17,833
Hello? Yes, Ed.
317
00:22:19,152 --> 00:22:21,029
Are you serious?
318
00:22:22,572 --> 00:22:24,847
Yes. Goodbye, Ed.
319
00:22:25,325 --> 00:22:27,885
- What'd he say?
- Sedgwick called Ed...
320
00:22:28,161 --> 00:22:29,913
...and said that he was wrong...
321
00:22:30,163 --> 00:22:33,121
...and they'll probably reopen
the investigation...
322
00:22:33,416 --> 00:22:36,374
...and examine all of
Mr. Cavanaugh's past dealings.
323
00:22:36,669 --> 00:22:39,342
- Isn't that what I said?
- Yes, Mother.
324
00:22:39,630 --> 00:22:42,144
- Isn't that what he wanted?
- Yes, Mother.
325
00:22:42,425 --> 00:22:45,383
Well, what's he's so unhappy about?
326
00:22:45,678 --> 00:22:47,828
You wouldn't understand, Mother.
327
00:22:48,430 --> 00:22:50,739
I don't know, it's just that...
328
00:22:52,934 --> 00:22:55,892
I don't know,
it's just all pretty mysterious.
329
00:22:56,188 --> 00:22:58,656
I suppose I should stop fighting it.
330
00:22:59,107 --> 00:23:00,859
I don't know.
331
00:23:01,568 --> 00:23:03,001
I don't know.
332
00:23:13,371 --> 00:23:16,363
Good afternoon, councilman.
Come in, and congratulations.
333
00:23:16,665 --> 00:23:19,020
- Samantha, how are you?
- Ed, congratulations again.
334
00:23:19,293 --> 00:23:21,284
- Thank you.
- I'd like you to meet my mother.
335
00:23:21,545 --> 00:23:24,617
Mother, this is our
new councilman, Ed Wright.
336
00:23:24,923 --> 00:23:26,561
Oh, how do you do?
337
00:23:26,842 --> 00:23:31,996
Oh, yes. I saw you on television,
young man. It was most effective.
338
00:23:32,430 --> 00:23:34,148
You're very kind, Mrs...
339
00:23:34,390 --> 00:23:36,267
Mrs...?
340
00:23:36,893 --> 00:23:38,849
Waters.
341
00:23:39,145 --> 00:23:41,056
You're very kind, Mrs. Waters.
342
00:23:41,314 --> 00:23:44,863
It's the greatest thing I've seen
since the Lincoln-Douglas debates.
343
00:23:45,443 --> 00:23:47,479
Hey, your mother has
a great sense of humour.
344
00:23:47,736 --> 00:23:50,125
- Yes, hasn't she.
- What's the latest on Cavanaugh?
345
00:23:50,406 --> 00:23:52,920
We're going along with
the investigations as planned...
346
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,031
...but Cavanaugh's disappeared.
- Really?
347
00:23:55,285 --> 00:23:57,560
The general consensus is
he's skipped the country.
348
00:23:57,829 --> 00:24:00,218
- Oh, that's too bad.
- We'd like to prosecute him...
349
00:24:00,499 --> 00:24:02,217
...but we have to find him first.
350
00:24:02,459 --> 00:24:06,372
I think he'll probably turn up
sooner or later.
351
00:24:06,713 --> 00:24:09,273
- Do you really think so, Mother?
- Oh, I'm sure of it.
352
00:24:09,757 --> 00:24:13,067
I'd give anything to have him
right here in the palm of my hand.
353
00:24:13,386 --> 00:24:14,899
I'll drink to that.
354
00:24:16,389 --> 00:24:19,540
You have accused me of graft,
corruption and nepotism.
355
00:24:25,064 --> 00:24:28,056
My appreciation, Mr. Wright, for
affording me this opportunity...
356
00:24:28,358 --> 00:24:30,474
...of setting the record straight.
357
00:24:32,529 --> 00:24:34,645
Right, my fellow citizens?
358
00:24:34,695 --> 00:24:39,245
