Who can turn the world on with her
smile?

Who can take a nothing day and suddenly
make it all seem worthwhile?

Well, it's you, girl, and you should
know it.

With each glance and every little
movement you show it, love is all alone,

need to waste it. You can never tell,
why don't you take it?

You're gonna make it after long.

your approval on these?

Grant, you don't usually drink before
the show.

This is Irish coffee.

Come on. There's no coffee in there.
There's no whipped cream.

It's not Irish whiskey. It's scotch.

Well, that's the last time I'll ever get
a recipe from that bartender.

Why are you drinking?

This is medicinal.

I think my glands are swollen.

Feel them.

Excuse me.

It's probably nothing.

I was with my grandson the other day,
and he has the mumps, and I never had

them. And you know what can happen when
a grown man gets the mumps.

I mean, it can affect his ability.

I mean, he can become... No, right,
right.

I mean, he can still... Yes, I know, I
know.

How do you know?

Uh, Reader's Digest.

You know, you really ought to see a
doctor.

Yeah, well, I made an appointment, but
now I'm not sure I really want to go.

I got this new guy filling in for my
regular doctor.

my old doctor knows me.

Took me 20 years to break him in.

He doesn't tell me to lose weight. He
doesn't tell me to exercise.

He doesn't tell me to cut down on my
drinking.

He's a good doctor.

Mr. Grant, come on, none of that
matters. You really have to go to a

Because if a man gets the mumps, you
know, he can become... I know.

I know.

I'm telling you, she was holding him
like this.

Peg, please. It's been a lovely evening.
Don't spoil it.

Mr. Grant, don't you worry about the
show. I'll handle everything. You just

to the doctor.

Doctor? Oh, Mr. Grant thinks he might
have the mumps.

Oh, that's why you're feeling up Lou's
throat.

Well, I'll see you tomorrow, I hope.

What's Lou so worried about? He'll be
fine.

And even if he does have the mumps, so
what?

Who cares if you're out of gas and you
never take the car out of the garage

anyway?

Excuse me. I'd like to talk to whoever's
in charge of the news.

Oh, he just left.

But I'm his associate producer.

Can I help you? I think so. It is rather
important.

I wonder, could we discuss it in
private?

Well, sure.

Yes, we can go right in here.

Well, I'd better go down to the studio.

You know, it's a funny thing. I've been
doing the news for eight years now, and

I still feel as nervous and as petrified
as I was opening night.

Of course, I'm perfect once I'm on.

Right before I feel a little sick to my
stomach.

That's funny.

I don't feel that way till after you're
on the air.

Thank you?

I just, I don't know how to thank you
except to say that I've already said

Well, uh, goodbye.

Goodbye. And thank you!

I haven't heard that many thank yous
since my honeymoon.

And they were all mine.

How much time do we have left on the
air? Uh, 12 minutes.

Okay, read this. I just typed it up.
This could be the biggest exclusive WJM

ever had.

Hey, this is dynamite. Uh -huh. And a
half million dollars in grafts? Yes, and

we've got the documents right here to
prove it. That man is a bookkeeper for

of the companies involved.

Well, look, the grand jury's on this
case. Why doesn't he go see them?

he's afraid of losing his job. Oh.

Murray, do you think we should put it on
the air tonight? You bet. It's

terrific. Okay, yeah. I mean, it came
from a really good source.

I'm going to get it to Ted right now.
Yeah.

From the horse's mouth to the horse's...
Murray!

And this note for pretty Twin Cities
Colleens.

The Chamber of Commerce announces they
are beginning to take applications for

the Queen of the Winter Carnival.

So all you pink -nosed little snow
bunnies... Mary, can you see I'm doing

news?

Read it.

that at least $1 .5 million in graft was
paid out in connection with the U .S.

721 Highway Project.

Furthermore, WGM has in its possession
documented proof of these charges, which

will be handed over to the federal grand
jury investigating this matter.

Now back to the real news.

Could you tell us how you first came
into possession of these rather

startling documents?

Oh, yes, it's my job.

I'm a newsman.

And I sniff around and I smell a story
and I scratch and I dig till I find a

bone of truth.

Next week, we're going to teach them to
roll over and play dead.

Mary, could you tell me where the
latest... Oh, say, Lou, come on over

Guys, I want you to meet the producer of
the 6 o 'clock news, Lou Grant.

Now, wait a second.

You guys have the mumps when you were
kids?

Ted, I don't have the mumps. It's just a
stupid little sore throat.

Well, it's just too bad you couldn't be
here last night when you had that stupid

little sore throat while we were busy
scooping the free world.

Couldn't have done it without you, Lou.

Even though we did do it without you.

All right, that's off.

Listen, while we're passing out the
kudos, I want to introduce you to Mary

Richards and Murray Slaughter.

That's them over there. That's Mary and
that's Murray.

Well, Ted, I think we have everything.

Well, it's always nice to talk to fellow
newsmen.

Thanks for the interview, Baxter. And
fellow news chicks.

Well, I think I handled that rather
well, don't you?

It all started in a small 5 ,000 -watt
radio station in Fresno, California. I'm

not a reporter, Mr. Baxter. I'm Special
Agent Harrison with the Department of

Justice.

Oh, you came here to pick up those
documents I uncovered?

Mary, this gentleman is here to pick up
those documents.

Yeah, I have them right here.

Here you are.

Here you are.

First,

I'd like to ask a few questions. Sure.
Tell me who gave you these documents.

Oh, sure. Those documents... Hold it!

Ted, you don't have to answer that
question.

You're a newsman.

All right.

I'm a newsman. I don't have to answer
that question.

Okay, you don't have to tell me, but
then you're going to have to tell the

jury. Here's a subpoena ordering you to
appear tomorrow.

Ted, the First Amendment guarantees the
freedom of the press. You don't ever

have to reveal your source, even to a
grand jury.

Right.

I don't have to ever reveal my source,
even to a grand jury.

True, but you can go to jail if you
don't.

Shut up, Lou.

Give me a break, copper.

I don't know who the source is.

I only work here.

I mean, I stand in front of the camera
and I read whatever they put in front of

me.

Half the time, I don't even know what it
means.

here that did receive the documents.

She did.

Mayor? Yeah, sure.

Mary, remember, you're a newsman. You
don't have to reveal your source.

Well, Harrison, we're going to need
another subpoena for a Mr., uh...

Look, here's the thing.

You see, the person who gave me the
document asked me to keep it a secret.

You know, so giving me a subpoena isn't
going to do any good because you can't

tell a secret, right? I mean, a secret's
a secret.

It's Richards. Mary Richards.

Hi, guys.

Where's Mary? Hey, you didn't leave her,
did you?

No, she's coming in her own car.

What happened when she testified?

Oh, I don't know. We testified
separately.

I gotta tell you guys, it's a great
experience appearing before a federal

jury. First, they take you to this
waiting room where they bring you coffee

you want it. What about Mary?

She didn't want any.

And since we hadn't testified until
lunch, while they took us across the

to this restaurant, where I had the best
prime ribs of my life, Lou. That lawyer

the station was going to send, did he
get there? Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, was he

any help? He's the one who told me to
have the prime ribs.

Then I went back and testified.

They asked me what my name was and what
I did. And what'd you tell them?

I told them I was the best darn newsman
in all of America.

You didn't.

I had to. I was under oath.

And then they just asked me where I got
the documents. I said, Mary gave them to

me, and they thanked me. And the top of
it, Lou, they give you $20 and 10 cents

a mile transportation.

I socked them for 800 miles.

They didn't even bat an eye.

Sort of gives a guy faith in the whole
system of American justice.

Oh, Mary, hey, what happened? Tell us.

Well, it's hard to know where to start.
Start from the beginning.

Well, I got there, and they asked me who
gave me the documents, and I told them

I couldn't tell them that.

And then they took me to this judge's
office, and he asked me why I wouldn't

tell, and I said that as a newsman, I
just felt I couldn't reveal a source.

What did the judge say?

Well, he was a very nice man.

He said he respected my opinion, and
that if he had a daughter...

He'd like her to be just like me.

Did he say anything else? Yeah.

He said that if I didn't change my mind
by Monday, he's sending me to jail.

Oh, Mary, honey.

Can I ask you a question?

Did anybody say anything about my
mileage?

No, she's still sticking to it, Sue Ann.

They had another hearing, and if she
doesn't tell them by tonight, they're

to come and arrest her.

Poor dear Mary.

But I understand. I know what it's like
to take a stand for a principal.

I remember when a sponsor came to me
demanding that I incorporate their

in my Thanksgiving special.

They cajoled me. They intimidated me.
They threatened me.

But I took a firm stand on the principle
of artistic integrity and told them to

take their frozen giblets and ran them
right up their nose.

Dear, I want you to know, when you get
out, if you get out, I will be right

here to help you find your way back into
decent society.

Thanks, Sue Ann. That makes me feel a
lot better.

Whom are you spending your last evening
of freedom with?

Uh, no one.

Well, I won't allow it. Uh, no, Sue Ann.
Plenty of time for solitary when they

throw you in the hole.

me to come over there alone or would you
like more of your friends friends more

more friends many wonderful idea mary
we'll make it a party now you leave

everything to me we'll have a prison
motif we'll serve our drinks and little

cups and everyone can bang them on the
table

I'm going to jail tonight.

And I just wish I could be sure I'm
doing the right thing.

Mary, I can't tell you what to do.

I can only tell you what I think.

I think it's a reporter's job to inform
the people.

But if a reporter can be forced to
reveal his confidential sources of

information, he can't do that job.

Because his sources will dry up.

And pretty soon there won't be any
information worth printing.

The whole concept of freedom of the
press will be destroyed.

And with it, democracy.

As you and I know it and cherish it.

But don't let that influence you.

Well, I just have to go to jail, that's
all. It's the right thing. It's the

honorable thing.

It's the only thing.

There's just one problem.

I don't want to go to jail, Mr.

Grant.

I'm afraid to go to jail.

I've never been to jail, Mr. Grant. I
never even had a day after school.

Murray? No, thanks, Sue Ann.

It was a good idea having this party to
cheer Mary up.

I know.

Well, I guess I'd better pack my things.

Mary, do you need any help?

Oh, no, thanks, Georgette. I'm just
going to take a toothbrush.

I understand they supply the rest.

Mary, dear, I don't like to criticize
you at a time like this, but...

Everyone is taking their cue from you.
Now, if you don't have a good time, no

one else will.

So, hold your head up, put a smile on
your face, and don't be such a drag.

I'll see what I can do.

Larry, how long are they going to keep
Larry in jail?

Well, until she tells them what they
want to know.

And when is she going to tell them what
they want to know?

She's never going to tell them.

she should take another toothbrush.

Well, I'm all ready to go. Mary. All
ready to go.

That's the spirit. Now, come on, people.
We came here to cheer Mary up.

Let's have some fun.

What do we do?

Oh, I know what Ted could do with
impressions.

No, I don't want to do my impressions.
Come on, Ted.

Well, all right.

Everybody insists.

You got to guess who this is.

All right.

You, you dirty rats.

There's more. There's more.

I'm not going to eat this slop.

I'm busting out of here.

Who is that?

Sue Ann's first husband.

or you'd be taking her, too.

Well, for tonight, she'll be kept at the
county jail downtown.

Well, shall we go?

Sorry, but we're going to have to put
these on.

Handcuffs?

Sorry, but it's a procedure.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

She might decide to overpower you.

you these cigarettes.

Take them.

Ted, I don't smoke.

I know, but you've got to have them to
bribe the screws.

No offense.

We're going to get you out.

I know.

We're going to fight this thing and
we're going to win it.

Right.

Look out for yourself.

I will.

You sure I couldn't have my overnight
bag?

Sorry.

It's just that it had my toothbrush and
toothpaste in it.

I just hate to wake up in the morning
without brushing my teeth.

You know, that taste in your mouth when
you first wake up.

I know it's funny, but ever since I was
a little girl, I mean, I just couldn't

do anything until I brushed my teeth.

So, I guess we're going to be roomies.

My name's Mary Richards.

I'm Sandra Dee, and this is Annette
Funicello.

She's Sherry. I'm Kim. Oh.

So, what are you in here for?

Oh, I fell in love with a cop.

How about you?

Yeah, what'd they get you for?

Impersonating a Barbie doll.

time in prison oh yeah you could have
fooled us but what i mean is you'll have

to excuse me for talking so much it's
just when i get nervous i tend to babble

on so you know i'm sorry if i'm
bothering you if you want to stop just

let me know because otherwise i'll just
you know keep right on talking kind of a

silly thing but you know it's just this
way i have of unwinding so you know

You know, until I brush my teeth in the
morning, I don't feel like doing

anything. I know it sounds silly. What
did you say your name was?

Mary.

Mary. I know.

You're probably not a bad kid.

And this must be a very trying
experience for you. But if you mention

toothbrush one more time, I'm going to
spit up.

Right in here.

I've seen some tough -looking chicks in
here, but this one takes the cake.

and for 30 years I've known how to pull
a few strings.

Oh, this is Kim and Sherry. It's okay,
it's okay.

Would you ladies excuse us for a second?

Oh, certainly. Come on, let's go over to
your place.

So, what you been doing?

Oh, nothing much.

Listen,

Mary.

I've been thinking it over.

And you've got to tell them what they
want to know.

What? Yeah, listen, there are a lot of
people out there, a lot of people who

believe that a reporter has no more
right than anybody else to withhold

evidence.

Is that what you believe?

Yes.

Now, I do. Yes, yes, yes.

Uh, Mary?

I want you to reveal your source.

Okay, you look me in the eye and say
that.

Mary, I want you to reveal your source.

You're looking me in the nose.

Look, it's not what I believe in anymore
that's important.

It's you.

You're in jail.

You're in jail.

I just can't take it. I can't handle it
anymore.

Mr. Grant, everything's going to be all
right.

Sure, that's easy for you to say.

But my lawyer's already working on the
appeal.

I'll be out on bail in a few days.

I mean, they can't keep me in here
forever.

What, a day, a couple, maybe a week?
That's all.

I just wish I hadn't talked to you into
this.

Oh, but you didn't. Mr.

Grant, I didn't come to see you to find
out what you had to say.

I already knew what you had to say.

And I needed to hear it.

You want to look me in the nose and say
that?

Really?

I... I feel just like I feel when one of
my daughters makes me proud.

I could... What?

Nothing.

No? Come on, you were going to say
something. What?

Hug you.

I'm not a hunker.

Listen, I don't get it.

You work for a news show and you
wouldn't say who gave you a...

In other words, they put you in jail
just for doing your job?

Yep, that's right.

Same as us.

Well, goodbye.

Yeah, kid, it was nice meeting you.
Thank you. Take care of yourself.

Will, you too.

Don't worry about her. She'll be all
right. I just heard her lawyer's posted

bail. She'll probably be out of here in
three or four hours.

Three or four hours?

Oh, we'll probably be back by then.
