Into drucker's store?

Yes, I'm going to
Pick up the mail.
19
00:01:42,769 --> 00:01:43,947
Can you get something for me?
20
00:01:43,971 --> 00:01:45,237
Why sure, honey. What?
21
00:01:45,306 --> 00:01:47,639
Wait a moment.
I'll get the list.
22
00:01:50,144 --> 00:01:51,888
Mr. Douglas, you
Goin' into drucker's?
23
00:01:51,912 --> 00:01:52,912
Yes.
24
00:01:52,980 --> 00:01:54,346
Well, we need a...
25
00:01:54,415 --> 00:01:55,480
Doggone it.
26
00:01:55,549 --> 00:01:57,549
Wait a minute, I wrote it down.
27
00:01:58,319 --> 00:01:59,684
Here it is,
28
00:02:00,620 --> 00:02:02,287
Huh, that's the wrong list.
29
00:02:02,356 --> 00:02:03,422
Can you wait a minute?
30
00:02:03,490 --> 00:02:04,589
Sure, ok.
31
00:02:04,658 --> 00:02:06,524
Good. I'll be right back.
32
00:02:08,028 --> 00:02:09,694
Here we are.
33
00:02:09,763 --> 00:02:11,263
"Call linda."
34
00:02:11,332 --> 00:02:14,132
Oh, that's a personal memo.
It must be on the other side.
35
00:02:15,469 --> 00:02:17,635
"Call sheila"?
36
00:02:17,704 --> 00:02:19,404
First time I ever did that.
37
00:02:19,473 --> 00:02:21,739
Wrote sheila on
The back of linda.
38
00:02:21,808 --> 00:02:24,076
Don't go away I'll
Get the right list.
39
00:02:24,144 --> 00:02:26,111
I'll be right here.
40
00:02:26,180 --> 00:02:27,545
Here it is.
41
00:02:29,116 --> 00:02:32,451
"Remind eb to call
Linda and sheila"?
42
00:02:32,519 --> 00:02:34,953
No, the list is on
The other side.
43
00:02:35,022 --> 00:02:36,188
Oh.
44
00:02:36,256 --> 00:02:38,056
"One pink shower cap."
45
00:02:38,125 --> 00:02:39,965
Oh, now couldn't
You remember that?
46
00:02:40,027 --> 00:02:41,526
Not without a list.
47
00:02:41,595 --> 00:02:42,827
Ok.
48
00:02:44,164 --> 00:02:45,864
Found it!
49
00:02:45,932 --> 00:02:48,766
Ah, "Remind mrs. Douglas
To ask mr. Douglas
50
00:02:48,835 --> 00:02:51,103
To get a pink
Shower cap for her"?
51
00:02:51,171 --> 00:02:53,516
Mrs. Douglas takes
Care of linda and shelia,
52
00:02:53,540 --> 00:02:55,018
And I take care of
The shower caps.
53
00:02:55,042 --> 00:02:56,341
I'll see you both later.
54
00:02:56,410 --> 00:02:57,942
Bye. Bye.
55
00:03:02,983 --> 00:03:06,218
Gosh! Mr. Douglas sure
Ain't much fun anymore.
56
00:03:06,286 --> 00:03:07,552
What do you mean?
57
00:03:07,621 --> 00:03:09,399
He don't get mad
Like he used to.
58
00:03:09,423 --> 00:03:11,490
Usually if we bug him
The way we just did,
59
00:03:11,558 --> 00:03:13,003
He'd go right
Through the ceilin'.
60
00:03:13,027 --> 00:03:14,059
Pow!
61
00:03:14,128 --> 00:03:16,161
That's right. I noticed that.
62
00:03:16,230 --> 00:03:19,464
He didn't "Pow" like he used to.
63
00:03:20,567 --> 00:03:22,401
I wonder if he's sick?
64
00:03:22,469 --> 00:03:24,814
Must be somethin'
Wrong with him.
65
00:03:24,838 --> 00:03:28,018
I tell you there's somethin'
Wrong with mr. Douglas.
66
00:03:28,042 --> 00:03:29,541
No spark.
67
00:03:29,609 --> 00:03:31,587
H-he don't pow like he used to.
68
00:03:31,611 --> 00:03:33,645
I don't think there's
Anything wrong with him.
69
00:03:33,713 --> 00:03:34,713
Well, I do.
70
00:03:36,783 --> 00:03:37,916
So does arnold.
71
00:03:37,984 --> 00:03:40,818
Oh, he agrees with everybody.
72
00:03:40,887 --> 00:03:44,389
Well, I tell you, I sure miss
'em speeches of mr. Douglas,
73
00:03:44,458 --> 00:03:46,958
How us farmers are
The backbone of america
74
00:03:47,027 --> 00:03:48,838
And how we built this country
75
00:03:48,862 --> 00:03:51,674
With our plows, and our
Hoes, and our shovels.
76
00:03:51,698 --> 00:03:53,843
Yeah, and how we
Plant our little seeds
77
00:03:53,867 --> 00:03:55,107
In rich brown earth
78
00:03:55,135 --> 00:03:56,513
And watch them push their way up
79
00:03:56,537 --> 00:03:58,581
To reach for the
Sun and the sky.
80
00:03:58,605 --> 00:03:59,971
Yeah.
81
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,907
When he was in form,
Everyday was the 4th of july.
82
00:04:03,710 --> 00:04:05,310
Well, good morning.
83
00:04:05,379 --> 00:04:07,212
Mornin', mr. Douglas.
84
00:04:09,216 --> 00:04:10,815
Oh, hello there, arnold.
85
00:04:10,884 --> 00:04:12,417
I kept him out of school today.
86
00:04:12,486 --> 00:04:14,119
I think he's takin'
A little cold.
87
00:04:16,156 --> 00:04:18,356
Oh, yeah, you shouldn't, uh...
88
00:04:18,425 --> 00:04:22,160
Ah, mr. Drucker, do you
Have a, uh, a shower cap?
89
00:04:22,229 --> 00:04:24,028
No, but I have
Some bathin' caps.
90
00:04:24,098 --> 00:04:26,309
Oh, that'll be fine.
I... I'll take a pink one.
91
00:04:28,102 --> 00:04:30,602
Arnold, if mr. Douglas
Wants to wear a pink...
92
00:04:30,670 --> 00:04:32,710
No... No... No, it's not for me.
93
00:04:32,739 --> 00:04:34,072
It's for mrs. Douglas.
94
00:04:34,141 --> 00:04:35,474
Ah, here we are.
95
00:04:35,542 --> 00:04:37,620
This is our channel
Swimmer model. Uh-huh.
96
00:04:37,644 --> 00:04:40,678
Every one of these is personally
Autographed by gertrude ederle.
97
00:04:40,747 --> 00:04:43,393
Oh, gertrude ed... You
Don't say! How about that?
98
00:04:43,417 --> 00:04:44,716
Yes, that'll be fine.
99
00:04:44,784 --> 00:04:46,463
Uh, put one in
The sack, will you?
100
00:04:46,487 --> 00:04:47,719
Anything else?
101
00:04:47,787 --> 00:04:49,165
Uh, yes. Is the mail in?
102
00:04:49,189 --> 00:04:50,922
There ain't any
Mail, mr. Douglas.
103
00:04:50,991 --> 00:04:51,991
Why not?
104
00:04:52,025 --> 00:04:53,425
Well, you see, me
And coz conway,
105
00:04:53,494 --> 00:04:55,260
He's the postmaster
Up in pixley,
106
00:04:55,329 --> 00:04:56,995
We had a little fallin' out.
107
00:04:57,063 --> 00:04:59,931
And he says he ain't gonna send
The mail through unless I apologize.
108
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,433
Which I ain't gonna do.
109
00:05:01,502 --> 00:05:03,901
Somebody ought to
Complain to washington.
110
00:05:03,970 --> 00:05:06,015
Holdin' up the mail like that.
111
00:05:06,039 --> 00:05:09,274
Yeah. Somebody sure ought to.
112
00:05:09,343 --> 00:05:13,044
Oh, no. I think mr. Drucker
Will work things out.
113
00:05:13,113 --> 00:05:16,248
No, he ain't got it no more.
114
00:05:16,316 --> 00:05:18,550
There is a letter here
For you, mr. Douglas.
115
00:05:18,619 --> 00:05:20,652
It came last week but I
Forgot to give it to you.
116
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,654
Oh?
117
00:05:22,722 --> 00:05:25,657
Uh, if that was my letter I'd
Raise a lot of cain about it.
118
00:05:25,725 --> 00:05:29,361
That ain't no way to treat the american
Farmer, the backbone of this country.
119
00:05:29,429 --> 00:05:31,696
Now, mr. Drucker's only human.
120
00:05:31,765 --> 00:05:34,399
There ain't gonna be
No 4th of july today.
121
00:05:34,468 --> 00:05:36,535
No pow, no bang.
122
00:05:36,603 --> 00:05:37,603
Mmm.
123
00:05:37,671 --> 00:05:39,003
Somethin' wrong?
124
00:05:39,072 --> 00:05:40,372
Well, this bill here.
125
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,442
$12.03, the state farm
Unattached duty tax.
126
00:05:44,511 --> 00:05:46,110
Mine was $8.90.
127
00:05:46,180 --> 00:05:48,079
Mine was $11.40.
128
00:05:48,148 --> 00:05:49,481
What's it for?
129
00:05:49,550 --> 00:05:51,550
"State farm unattached..."
130
00:05:51,618 --> 00:05:54,118
We don't know, we get...
We get one every year.
131
00:05:54,188 --> 00:05:55,220
You pay it?
132
00:05:55,289 --> 00:05:56,655
Well, shouldn't we?
133
00:05:56,723 --> 00:05:59,335
Well, I... Are you
Gonna pay yours?
134
00:05:59,359 --> 00:06:01,693
Well, not till I find
Out what it's for.
135
00:06:01,761 --> 00:06:04,296
Well, that might
Not be too easy to do.
136
00:06:04,364 --> 00:06:05,730
What do you mean?
137
00:06:05,799 --> 00:06:07,899
The state don't like to
Give out that information.
138
00:06:07,967 --> 00:06:09,801
One year, ben miller
Asked what it was for
139
00:06:09,869 --> 00:06:12,537
And the next year they
Raised his unattached duty tax.
140
00:06:12,606 --> 00:06:14,239
They raised his... $12.
141
00:06:15,509 --> 00:06:18,009
Well, I'd like to see
Them raise my tax
142
00:06:18,078 --> 00:06:19,955
Just because I asked a question.
143
00:06:19,979 --> 00:06:21,023
What question?
144
00:06:21,047 --> 00:06:22,747
What this phony tax is for.
145
00:06:22,816 --> 00:06:24,182
Uh, I don't know.
146
00:06:24,251 --> 00:06:26,251
Then why do you pay it?
147
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,020
I think we lit the fuse.
148
00:06:29,089 --> 00:06:33,225
Don't you pay enough taxes without
Paying some anonymous farm tax?
149
00:06:33,293 --> 00:06:37,195
The american farmer didn't get where he
Is today by taking these things lying down.
150
00:06:37,264 --> 00:06:39,464
The farmer is the
Backbone of america.
151
00:06:39,533 --> 00:06:41,766
He plants his seeds in
The rich brown earth
152
00:06:41,835 --> 00:06:45,103
And watches them push upwards,
Reaching towards the sun and the sky.
153
00:06:45,171 --> 00:06:46,304
Mr. Douglas.
154
00:06:46,373 --> 00:06:47,373
What?
155
00:06:48,609 --> 00:06:50,275
Happy 4th of july.
156
00:06:53,780 --> 00:06:58,049
And they have the nerve to send me
This state farm unattached duty tax.
157
00:06:58,118 --> 00:06:59,517
Ah, you're feeling better.
158
00:06:59,586 --> 00:07:01,553
$12.03. What's that for?
159
00:07:01,622 --> 00:07:03,266
Did you get my shower cap?
160
00:07:03,290 --> 00:07:06,369
Yes. This is the only state I ever heard
Of that had an unattached duty tax.
161
00:07:06,393 --> 00:07:08,003
You didn't buy my shower cap.
162
00:07:08,027 --> 00:07:09,794
Yes, I did. Right here.
163
00:07:09,863 --> 00:07:11,963
$12.03. What is that for?
164
00:07:12,031 --> 00:07:13,632
That's what I'm talking about.
165
00:07:13,700 --> 00:07:16,145
Not one of the fellows in the
Store knew why they have to pay it.
166
00:07:16,169 --> 00:07:17,469
This not a shower cap?
167
00:07:17,537 --> 00:07:18,703
It's a bathing cap.
168
00:07:18,772 --> 00:07:20,416
Why did you get me a pink one?
169
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,440
You told me you wanted pink.
170
00:07:22,509 --> 00:07:25,176
Since when do you
Listen to what I say?
171
00:07:25,245 --> 00:07:26,245
Lisa...
172
00:07:26,313 --> 00:07:28,023
Somebody put their name on this.
173
00:07:28,047 --> 00:07:29,781
Uh, gertrude ederle.
174
00:07:29,849 --> 00:07:32,395
I don't want to wear
Somebody else's bathing cap.
175
00:07:32,419 --> 00:07:33,752
That's a brand name.
176
00:07:33,820 --> 00:07:36,220
Gertrude ederle swam
The english channel.
177
00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:38,610
She couldn't wait for the boat?
178
00:07:44,097 --> 00:07:45,196
♪
179
00:07:45,265 --> 00:07:46,564
Mr. Kimball.
180
00:07:46,633 --> 00:07:49,434
Now, he... He can tell
Me what this is for.
181
00:07:49,503 --> 00:07:51,703
State farm unattached duty tax?
182
00:07:51,772 --> 00:07:53,283
And you want to
Know what it's for?
183
00:07:53,307 --> 00:07:54,706
That's right.
184
00:07:54,775 --> 00:07:56,386
Well, let's see if I can
Put it in layman's language.
185
00:07:56,410 --> 00:07:57,442
Mmm-hmm.
186
00:07:57,511 --> 00:07:58,751
Is mrs. Douglas around?
187
00:07:58,812 --> 00:08:00,712
Yeah, she's in the,
Uh, the house here...
188
00:08:00,781 --> 00:08:03,159
Good, good. Because of some
Of the language a layman uses...
189
00:08:03,183 --> 00:08:05,082
Oh, I've heard it. Come on.
190
00:08:05,151 --> 00:08:09,053
Oh. Well, the state farm unattached
Duty tax was first passed in 1938.
191
00:08:09,122 --> 00:08:11,301
It was originally
Called a state farm tax.
192
00:08:11,325 --> 00:08:14,592
But then somebody found out that a
State farm tax had been passed in 1925,
193
00:08:14,661 --> 00:08:17,762
So they added the word
"Unattached duty" to the 1938 tax
194
00:08:17,831 --> 00:08:20,576
So they wouldn't get it
Confused with the 1925 tax.
195
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,999
Is that clear?
196
00:08:22,068 --> 00:08:24,268
No. What's it for?
197
00:08:24,338 --> 00:08:27,138
Oh! Oh, in your
Case it's for $12.03.
198
00:08:27,641 --> 00:08:28,773
No... No.
199
00:08:28,842 --> 00:08:31,042
How do they determine
How much you owe?
200
00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:33,678
Well, they take
Your acreage and...
201
00:08:33,747 --> 00:08:37,349
Well, they don't take your acreage
Unless you don't pay the tax bill.
202
00:08:37,417 --> 00:08:39,577
They have a computer
With a stack of cards.
203
00:08:39,619 --> 00:08:41,886
And each card has a
Taxpayer's name on it.
204
00:08:41,955 --> 00:08:44,188
In your case it would be, uh...
205
00:08:44,257 --> 00:08:46,057
Well, whatever your name is.
206
00:08:46,125 --> 00:08:48,085
Each card has
Holes punched in it.
207
00:08:48,127 --> 00:08:50,962
This is done at the state
Department of hole-punching.
208
00:08:51,030 --> 00:08:52,530
3 men work there:
209
00:08:52,599 --> 00:08:54,298
The, uh, head hole-puncher,
210
00:08:54,368 --> 00:08:55,845
The assistant head hole-puncher,
211
00:08:55,869 --> 00:08:57,109
And his brother-in-law.
212
00:08:58,104 --> 00:09:00,271
Which one punched
The holes in your head?
213
00:09:01,408 --> 00:09:02,741
Oh.
214
00:09:02,809 --> 00:09:04,909
That's funny.
215
00:09:04,978 --> 00:09:06,644
No, that's not funny. It's...
216
00:09:06,713 --> 00:09:08,513
How much did you
Say your tax was?
217
00:09:08,582 --> 00:09:10,382
$12.03.
218
00:09:10,450 --> 00:09:12,817
Mine was $18.41.
219
00:09:12,886 --> 00:09:15,130
It would have been less,
But I don't have a farm.
220
00:09:15,154 --> 00:09:16,421
And you paid it?
221
00:09:16,490 --> 00:09:18,368
Oh, we all have to
Share the burden.
222
00:09:18,392 --> 00:09:20,024
Oh, I don't mind
Sharin' the burden
223
00:09:20,093 --> 00:09:21,993
If I know what the burden is.
224
00:09:22,061 --> 00:09:24,306
Oh, that's easy enough
For you to find out.
225
00:09:24,330 --> 00:09:27,799
Just call up the state farm
Unattached duty tax bureau.
226
00:09:29,335 --> 00:09:31,002
I'll do just that.
227
00:09:38,278 --> 00:09:40,189
State capital
Building, good morning.
228
00:09:40,213 --> 00:09:42,547
Good morning, uh. This is
Oliver wendell douglas.
229
00:09:42,616 --> 00:09:45,116
Oliver wendell douglas?
Do you know his extension?
230
00:09:46,252 --> 00:09:48,453
No, I am oliver wendell douglas.
231
00:09:50,156 --> 00:09:52,402
I want to talk to the farm
Unattached duty tax bureau.
232
00:09:52,426 --> 00:09:53,591
They closed at noon.
233
00:09:53,660 --> 00:09:54,737
When will they be back?
234
00:09:54,761 --> 00:09:56,093
Next june.
235
00:09:56,162 --> 00:09:57,429
Next june?
236
00:09:57,497 --> 00:09:59,776
Yes, sir. They just
Open for one week,
237
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,811
Punch the cards, mail
Out the tax notices,
238
00:10:01,835 --> 00:10:03,846
And then they
Close for the year.
239
00:10:03,870 --> 00:10:06,370
Wow, I'd like to
Have a job like that.
240
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,940
I'll connect you
With civil service.
241
00:10:09,008 --> 00:10:10,208
No, no. Look, I don't...
242
00:10:11,745 --> 00:10:14,278
Now, will you connect me
With my assemblyman, please.
243
00:10:14,347 --> 00:10:16,180
Yes, sir. What's his name?
244
00:10:16,249 --> 00:10:17,249
I don't know.
245
00:10:17,283 --> 00:10:18,583
And you voted for him?
246
00:10:18,652 --> 00:10:20,284
No, I didn't vote.
247
00:10:20,353 --> 00:10:21,931
I haven't been here
Long enough to vote.
248
00:10:21,955 --> 00:10:23,254
Oh, you're not a citizen.
249
00:10:23,323 --> 00:10:26,458
I'll connect you with the
Immigration department.
250
00:10:26,526 --> 00:10:29,761
I live in hooterville. Who is the
Assemblyman from this district?
251
00:10:29,830 --> 00:10:31,707
What's the number
Of your district?
252
00:10:31,731 --> 00:10:33,030
I don't know.
253
00:10:33,099 --> 00:10:35,244
Well, then I have no
Way of telling who he is.
254
00:10:35,268 --> 00:10:36,501
Who could?
255
00:10:36,570 --> 00:10:38,903
I suggest you ask
Some of your neighbors.
256
00:10:38,972 --> 00:10:41,573
I don't know who
He is. Do you, frank?
257
00:10:41,641 --> 00:10:42,752
Oh, I don't know.
258
00:10:42,776 --> 00:10:44,075
How about you, sam?
259
00:10:44,143 --> 00:10:45,610
I'm afraid not.
260
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,245
Well, somebody must know
Who our assemblyman is.
261
00:10:50,650 --> 00:10:52,416
No, arnold,
262
00:10:52,486 --> 00:10:54,018
He's the deputy sheriff.
263
00:10:54,955 --> 00:10:58,823
I don't care who the dep...
264
00:10:58,892 --> 00:11:01,771
The last time you had an
Election for assemblymen,
265
00:11:01,795 --> 00:11:03,928
Who ran from this district?
266
00:11:03,997 --> 00:11:05,897
I did. Oh?
267
00:11:05,966 --> 00:11:07,198
I was defeated.
268
00:11:07,266 --> 00:11:08,506
Who ran against you?
269
00:11:08,535 --> 00:11:10,134
Nobody.
270
00:11:10,203 --> 00:11:11,246
And you lost?
271
00:11:11,270 --> 00:11:12,270
No.
272
00:11:12,338 --> 00:11:14,405
Then you won. No.
273
00:11:14,474 --> 00:11:16,941
Well, y-you see, election
Day is the first tuesday
274
00:11:17,010 --> 00:11:18,943
After the first
Monday in september.
275
00:11:19,012 --> 00:11:20,277
But the word got around
276
00:11:20,346 --> 00:11:22,324
That it was the first monday
After the first tuesday
277
00:11:22,348 --> 00:11:23,915
And that's when
Everybody showed up
278
00:11:23,984 --> 00:11:26,518
And by that time
It was too late.
279
00:11:26,586 --> 00:11:27,886
When was this?
280
00:11:27,954 --> 00:11:29,153
1922.
281
00:11:30,256 --> 00:11:32,334
And you haven't had
An election since?
282
00:11:32,358 --> 00:11:34,559
Not for assemblymen.
283
00:11:34,628 --> 00:11:36,539
Well, then this district
Isn't represented
284
00:11:36,563 --> 00:11:37,729
In the state assembly.
285
00:11:37,797 --> 00:11:38,897
I guess we ain't.
286
00:11:38,965 --> 00:11:40,431
Well, how about that?
287
00:11:40,500 --> 00:11:41,900
How could that be?
288
00:11:41,968 --> 00:11:44,402
Well, they didn't
Seem to miss us.
289
00:11:44,470 --> 00:11:45,815
That ain't true. They send us
290
00:11:45,839 --> 00:11:48,472
Our state unattached
Duty tax bill regular.
291
00:11:48,542 --> 00:11:50,486
They have no right to send them.
292
00:11:50,510 --> 00:11:53,377
In a democracy, every citizen
Is entitled to representation.
293
00:11:53,446 --> 00:11:55,658
That's... That's what the
American revolution was about.
294
00:11:55,682 --> 00:11:57,326
In the words of patrick henry:
295
00:11:57,350 --> 00:11:59,996
"Taxation without
Representation is tyranny."
296
00:12:00,020 --> 00:12:01,318
Well,
297
00:12:01,387 --> 00:12:03,668
We don't want to get
Mr. Henry in any trouble.
298
00:12:05,091 --> 00:12:07,124
He's not gonna
Get in any trouble.
299
00:12:08,094 --> 00:12:09,694
Look, gentlemen.
300
00:12:09,763 --> 00:12:11,596
Have you paid your taxes yet?
301
00:12:12,766 --> 00:12:15,132
All right, I advise
You not to pay them.
302
00:12:15,201 --> 00:12:16,434
We'll get in trouble.
303
00:12:16,502 --> 00:12:17,813
No, you won't get in trouble.
304
00:12:17,837 --> 00:12:19,715
I'm going to take this
Up with the head man.
305
00:12:19,739 --> 00:12:20,972
The hole puncher?
306
00:12:21,942 --> 00:12:23,207
The governor.
307
00:12:24,711 --> 00:12:27,445
Get your souvenirs
Of the state capitol.
308
00:12:27,513 --> 00:12:30,882
Get your souvenirs
Of the state capitol.
309
00:12:30,951 --> 00:12:32,149
Mr. Haney.
310
00:12:32,218 --> 00:12:34,752
Mr. Douglas. You
Goin' someplace?
311
00:12:34,821 --> 00:12:36,061
The state capitol.
312
00:12:36,122 --> 00:12:37,521
Got your souvenirs yet?
313
00:12:37,591 --> 00:12:39,123
No, I... I...
314
00:12:39,192 --> 00:12:41,960
You can save a lot of money
By buyin' them here. Half price.
315
00:12:42,028 --> 00:12:43,205
No, I really don't need...
316
00:12:43,229 --> 00:12:44,462
How about a pennant?
317
00:12:46,032 --> 00:12:47,865
"Hooray for the governor"?
318
00:12:47,934 --> 00:12:49,767
By not mentionin' any name,
319
00:12:49,836 --> 00:12:52,704
You can wave it for
Any administration.
320
00:12:54,140 --> 00:12:55,406
That's very clever.
321
00:12:55,475 --> 00:12:57,208
But I don't want any.
322
00:12:57,276 --> 00:12:59,777
How would you like this
For your buttonhole?
323
00:12:59,846 --> 00:13:02,379
Our state flower, the ragweed.
324
00:13:05,485 --> 00:13:08,987
Looks like you got our
State allergy, hay fever.
325
00:13:09,055 --> 00:13:11,055
You know what
Our state animal is?
326
00:13:11,124 --> 00:13:12,156
What?
327
00:13:12,225 --> 00:13:14,391
The kangaroo.
328
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:17,862
"Keep things hoppin'."
329
00:13:17,931 --> 00:13:20,109
I don't really,
Uh, don't need a...
330
00:13:20,133 --> 00:13:22,834
Maybe you would rather have
331
00:13:22,902 --> 00:13:25,603
A inflatable state fish kit.
332
00:13:25,672 --> 00:13:29,440
It blows up into a
Replica of a electric eel.
333
00:13:30,409 --> 00:13:32,844
The state fish is
An electric eel?
334
00:13:32,912 --> 00:13:37,682
Recently adopted, commemorating
50 years of electrical progress.
335
00:13:39,019 --> 00:13:40,830
I... I... I don't need
Any souvenirs.
336
00:13:40,854 --> 00:13:44,122
I'll only be there a
Couple of days on business
337
00:13:44,190 --> 00:13:46,824
You got your hotel
Reservations yet?
338
00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:51,607
You don't miss a trick, do you?
339
00:13:51,631 --> 00:13:53,197
Not if I can help it.
340
00:13:53,266 --> 00:13:56,267
Now, the capitol is
Crowded this time of year.
341
00:13:56,335 --> 00:13:57,702
But I can get you
342
00:13:57,771 --> 00:13:59,737
Into the ragweed plaza,
343
00:13:59,806 --> 00:14:03,607
The eel astoria, or
The kangaroo hilton.
344
00:14:03,677 --> 00:14:06,978
But, uh, I would suggest
The glowny house.
345
00:14:07,047 --> 00:14:08,946
Before I...
346
00:14:09,015 --> 00:14:10,648
The what house?
347
00:14:10,717 --> 00:14:14,719
Now, I can get you the
Presidential suite or the royal suite.
348
00:14:14,788 --> 00:14:18,089
Now personally, I would
Take the presidential suite.
349
00:14:18,158 --> 00:14:20,992
Cost 50 cents a day
More, but it's worth it.
350
00:14:21,061 --> 00:14:23,661
Mr. Haney, before I'd make
A reservation with you,
351
00:14:23,730 --> 00:14:26,170
I would sleep in a pup tent.
352
00:14:26,199 --> 00:14:28,559
The missus goin' with you? Yes.
353
00:14:28,601 --> 00:14:30,768
Then you'll need the 2-man size.
354
00:14:32,872 --> 00:14:34,516
Will you take your pup tent
355
00:14:34,540 --> 00:14:35,807
And your souvenirs
356
00:14:35,875 --> 00:14:37,508
And get out of here?
357
00:14:37,577 --> 00:14:40,978
You're sure you don't want
To stay at the glowny house?
358
00:14:41,047 --> 00:14:43,192
I wouldn't stay at
The glowny house
359
00:14:43,216 --> 00:14:45,783
If it was the last
Place on earth.
360
00:14:45,852 --> 00:14:47,797
What's the name of this place?
361
00:14:47,821 --> 00:14:49,420
The glowny house.
362
00:14:49,488 --> 00:14:51,455
I don't like it.
363
00:14:51,524 --> 00:14:54,192
I got you the
Presidential suite, didn't I?
364
00:14:54,260 --> 00:14:56,072
Well, I don't want
To be unpatriotic,
365
00:14:56,096 --> 00:14:57,494
But I don't like it.
366
00:14:57,563 --> 00:15:01,332
We'll only be here overnight.
It's just a place to sleep.
367
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,401
Oliver, where is the bed?
368
00:15:08,074 --> 00:15:10,007
Oh, there's...
369
00:15:16,315 --> 00:15:20,184
Hello, this is mr. Douglas.
I'm in the presidential suite.
370
00:15:22,222 --> 00:15:24,255
What's so funny about that?
371
00:15:25,725 --> 00:15:28,126
Look, there's no
Bed in this room.
372
00:15:29,162 --> 00:15:31,362
What? You're kidding.
373
00:15:33,032 --> 00:15:34,132
Well?
374
00:15:37,137 --> 00:15:38,569
There it is.
375
00:15:39,906 --> 00:15:42,240
Do we have to sleep standing up?
376
00:15:42,776 --> 00:15:43,776
No.
377
00:15:49,816 --> 00:15:52,784
Ooh! My foot! Ooh!
378
00:15:57,223 --> 00:16:00,391
Well, now you found the
Bed, now look for the room.
379
00:16:01,828 --> 00:16:04,128
Well, it just pulls
Down at night.
380
00:16:12,872 --> 00:16:15,973
How are you going to explain
This to the chambermaid?
381
00:16:33,193 --> 00:16:36,493
Yes, this is mr. Douglas
In the presidential suite.
382
00:16:36,562 --> 00:16:38,162
I found the bed
383
00:16:38,231 --> 00:16:40,871
But when I try to put it back up
The mattress stays on the floor.
384
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:43,100
I don't care if it
Always does this!
385
00:16:43,169 --> 00:16:46,737
I'm paying $1.75 for
This... This suite,
386
00:16:46,806 --> 00:16:48,405
And I want it fixed.
387
00:16:53,012 --> 00:16:55,546
I am not going to
Sleep in this room.
388
00:16:55,614 --> 00:16:59,174
I'll see the governor this afternoon,
We'll be out of here by tonight.
389
00:17:05,992 --> 00:17:08,270
Hello, I'd like to see
The governor, please.
390
00:17:08,294 --> 00:17:11,462
I'm sorry, sir, you can't see the
Governor without an appointment.
391
00:17:11,530 --> 00:17:13,397
This is very important.
392
00:17:13,466 --> 00:17:15,666
Not without an appointment.
393
00:17:15,735 --> 00:17:18,202
All right. Make an appointment.
394
00:17:18,271 --> 00:17:19,815
My name is douglas.
395
00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:21,672
How would april suit you?
396
00:17:22,675 --> 00:17:24,675
This can't wait until april.
397
00:17:24,744 --> 00:17:26,210
Now, I live in hooterville.
398
00:17:26,279 --> 00:17:28,545
Is that near blackwell crossing?
399
00:17:28,614 --> 00:17:30,547
Where is blackwell crossing?
400
00:17:30,616 --> 00:17:32,884
Near pomeroy. Where
The governor was born.
401
00:17:32,952 --> 00:17:33,985
That's very...
402
00:17:34,053 --> 00:17:35,552
Now, if you were from pomeroy,
403
00:17:35,621 --> 00:17:39,190
I'm sure I could arrange
An appointment in march.
404
00:17:39,259 --> 00:17:41,937
I have something very
Important to discuss with him.
405
00:17:41,961 --> 00:17:44,661
Mr. Douglas, why don't you
Write the governor a letter
406
00:17:44,730 --> 00:17:46,764
And explain what it is
You want to see him about?
407
00:17:46,832 --> 00:17:48,366
And if it is important enough,
408
00:17:48,434 --> 00:17:50,167
I'm sure he will
Arrange an appointment.
409
00:17:50,236 --> 00:17:53,436
All right. I will
Write him a letter.
410
00:17:56,943 --> 00:18:00,044
Dear mr. Governor, I
Respectfully submit
411
00:18:00,113 --> 00:18:03,281
That the people of hooterville
Are entitled to representation
412
00:18:03,349 --> 00:18:05,749
In the legislature
Of this great state.
413
00:18:05,818 --> 00:18:06,984
I have...
414
00:18:07,921 --> 00:18:09,020
Hello, darling.
415
00:18:09,088 --> 00:18:10,165
Oh, lisa.
416
00:18:10,189 --> 00:18:11,555
Well,
417
00:18:11,624 --> 00:18:13,190
What have we got here?
418
00:18:13,259 --> 00:18:15,619
Uh, this is miss hawkney.
She's a public stenographer.
419
00:18:15,661 --> 00:18:19,096
Uh, then why is she
Stenographing here in private?
420
00:18:19,165 --> 00:18:21,465
Lisa, would you let me get
On with the letter, please,
421
00:18:21,534 --> 00:18:24,079
So that I can get the
Appointment with the governor?
422
00:18:24,103 --> 00:18:26,737
Well, if that's all you
Want. Why didn't you say so?
423
00:18:26,806 --> 00:18:29,206
Come along, darling, we
Won't need you anymore.
424
00:18:29,275 --> 00:18:31,353
Thank you very much.
That was very kind.
425
00:18:31,377 --> 00:18:34,511
Lisa, I... There
You are. Goodbye.
426
00:18:37,083 --> 00:18:39,228
Darling, if that's all you
Wanted, an appointment,
427
00:18:39,252 --> 00:18:40,818
Why didn't you say so?
428
00:18:42,855 --> 00:18:44,188
Hello?
429
00:18:44,257 --> 00:18:46,657
Hello, I'd like to speak
To washington, dee-seas.
430
00:18:46,725 --> 00:18:48,125
Lisa, who are you call...
431
00:18:48,194 --> 00:18:50,328
I-I-I 'd like to
Speak to mrs. Bird.
432
00:18:50,396 --> 00:18:51,528
Lisa!
433
00:18:51,597 --> 00:18:53,442
Uh, no, I... I... I don't
Know her phone number.
434
00:18:53,466 --> 00:18:57,401
But she lives in a big white
House on pencils-vania avenue.
435
00:18:58,571 --> 00:19:00,816
O-oh, tell her
It's lisa douglas.
436
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,706
Lisa, will you
Hang up, you can't...
437
00:19:02,775 --> 00:19:03,807
Hello.
438
00:19:03,876 --> 00:19:05,776
Oh, hello, mrs. Bird.
439
00:19:06,879 --> 00:19:08,846
It's lisa douglas.
440
00:19:08,914 --> 00:19:12,616
Uh, no. We haven't been in
Washington for a long time.
441
00:19:12,685 --> 00:19:15,019
We moved to a farm
In hootersville.
442
00:19:15,088 --> 00:19:18,489
Like the kind you go to every
Weekend, except this is worse.
443
00:19:19,859 --> 00:19:21,392
Lisa, please.
444
00:19:21,461 --> 00:19:24,462
The reason I'm calling you
Is because I need a favor.
445
00:19:24,530 --> 00:19:26,830
Uh, you see, my husband
Wants to see the governor,
446
00:19:26,899 --> 00:19:28,899
And he can't get an appointment.
447
00:19:28,968 --> 00:19:30,534
Could you fix it?
448
00:19:30,603 --> 00:19:31,603
Hmm?
449
00:19:32,571 --> 00:19:33,571
What state?
450
00:19:33,639 --> 00:19:35,839
The kangaroo state.
451
00:19:35,908 --> 00:19:37,674
The kangaroo state.
452
00:19:37,743 --> 00:19:39,676
Oh! You've been here?
453
00:19:40,913 --> 00:19:42,779
Oh, well, thank you.
454
00:19:42,848 --> 00:19:44,648
Thank you very much
455
00:19:44,717 --> 00:19:46,350
Goodbye.
456
00:19:46,419 --> 00:19:48,452
Lisa! All fixed.
457
00:19:48,521 --> 00:19:50,388
I don't know who
You were talking to.
458
00:19:50,456 --> 00:19:53,391
But they won't be able to get an
Appointment with the governor...
459
00:20:02,168 --> 00:20:03,200
Hello?
460
00:20:05,438 --> 00:20:06,937
The governor?
461
00:20:07,006 --> 00:20:08,672
Yes, sir.
462
00:20:08,741 --> 00:20:10,886
Uh, no, no, I didn't
Make the call,
463
00:20:10,910 --> 00:20:13,255
That was my wife made the ca...
464
00:20:13,279 --> 00:20:15,712
I could be there in
A half an hour, yes.
465
00:20:15,781 --> 00:20:17,348
Yes, sir.
466
00:20:22,188 --> 00:20:25,256
Any other appointments you
Want me to make for you, charlie?
467
00:20:26,292 --> 00:20:28,325
Lisa, who did you call?
468
00:20:30,963 --> 00:20:33,208
Uh, would you repeat
That, mr. Douglas.
469
00:20:33,232 --> 00:20:35,599
Yes, mr. Governor.
470
00:20:35,668 --> 00:20:39,537
The constitution of this
State clearly says that all laws
471
00:20:39,605 --> 00:20:41,657
Must be enacted
By a majority of the
472
00:20:41,681 --> 00:20:44,275
Representatives of
The citizens of the state.
473
00:20:44,343 --> 00:20:47,078
Now, if hooterville has
Had no representation
474
00:20:47,146 --> 00:20:49,447
In the state
Assembly since 1922,
475
00:20:49,515 --> 00:20:50,981
It seems to me
476
00:20:51,050 --> 00:20:53,917
That any laws passed
Since that time are invalid.
477
00:20:53,986 --> 00:20:58,122
Well, if that's true, do you
Realize the chaos it would cause?
478
00:20:58,191 --> 00:21:00,491
Why, it would set the
State back for years.
479
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:01,992
Cost us millions.
480
00:21:02,061 --> 00:21:03,627
I am not going to allow that.
481
00:21:03,696 --> 00:21:06,136
Well, now, mr. Governor,
The poople of heetervil...
482
00:21:06,199 --> 00:21:08,532
Uh, the people of hooterville
483
00:21:08,601 --> 00:21:10,961
Have been deprived
Of their just rights.
484
00:21:11,003 --> 00:21:13,304
I agree, now, that
People have been deprived
485
00:21:13,372 --> 00:21:15,406
Of representation
All these years.
486
00:21:15,475 --> 00:21:18,109
And I do think that the
State owes them something.
487
00:21:18,177 --> 00:21:19,297
Oh, like what?
488
00:21:19,345 --> 00:21:21,044
Well, how about a freeway?
489
00:21:21,981 --> 00:21:22,981
A freeway?
490
00:21:23,015 --> 00:21:24,982
6 lanes.
491
00:21:25,050 --> 00:21:27,811
That's one more than pomeroy
Has, and that's where I was born.
492
00:21:28,488 --> 00:21:30,588
We don't need a freeway.
493
00:21:30,656 --> 00:21:32,523
How about a nice dam?
494
00:21:32,592 --> 00:21:34,658
Hold the water back.
495
00:21:34,727 --> 00:21:36,127
No, we don't need a...
496
00:21:36,195 --> 00:21:37,894
Subway?
497
00:21:37,963 --> 00:21:40,731
Mr. Governor, it's a
Very small community.
498
00:21:40,799 --> 00:21:42,799
Look.
499
00:21:42,868 --> 00:21:45,414
I feel that the people of hooterville
Would be very well satisfied
500
00:21:45,438 --> 00:21:46,770
If you could arrange a refund
501
00:21:46,839 --> 00:21:49,006
Of all the taxes
They've paid to the state
502
00:21:49,074 --> 00:21:51,175
While they were
Without representation.
503
00:21:51,244 --> 00:21:54,845
Well, I think that's a
Reasonable demand.
504
00:21:54,913 --> 00:21:56,880
Mr. Douglas, you've
Got yourself a deal.
505
00:21:56,949 --> 00:21:58,460
Well, thank you, sir. Thank you.
506
00:21:58,484 --> 00:22:01,918
Oh, uh, I have a little
Something here for you.
507
00:22:01,987 --> 00:22:04,721
As a souvenir of your
Visit to the state capitol.
508
00:22:06,759 --> 00:22:09,693
Put it in your car, you can
Use the pouch for a litter bag.
509
00:22:20,439 --> 00:22:22,273
Here you are, jerry.
510
00:22:22,341 --> 00:22:23,507
Fred.
511
00:22:23,576 --> 00:22:24,941
Frank.
512
00:22:25,010 --> 00:22:27,511
Well, I'll be
Doggone. Look, sam.
513
00:22:27,580 --> 00:22:30,747
I got back $400.22.
514
00:22:30,816 --> 00:22:33,250
I got $384.
515
00:22:33,319 --> 00:22:34,351
Hey!
516
00:22:34,420 --> 00:22:35,852
Oh, here's mr. Douglas.
517
00:22:35,921 --> 00:22:37,399
3 cheers for mr. Douglas!
518
00:22:37,423 --> 00:22:39,201
Hip-hip. Hooray.
519
00:22:39,225 --> 00:22:40,802
Hip-hip. Hooray.
520
00:22:40,826 --> 00:22:42,826
Hip-hip. Hooray.
521
00:22:42,895 --> 00:22:46,963
And when I walked up to
That store, they cheered.
522
00:22:47,032 --> 00:22:48,777
Darling, I'm so proud of you.
523
00:22:48,801 --> 00:22:51,335
Well, you deserve a lot
Of credit for what you did.
524
00:22:51,404 --> 00:22:54,271
You mean for sleeping on
The floor on that mattress?
525
00:22:55,174 --> 00:22:56,607
No. If it hadn't been for you,
526
00:22:56,676 --> 00:22:58,876
I wouldn't have had the
Appointment with the governor.
527
00:22:59,845 --> 00:23:01,445
Who is it you called?
528
00:23:01,514 --> 00:23:04,714
The same lady who gave me
The card for the discount house.
529
00:23:05,150 --> 00:23:06,250
Lisa.
530
00:23:06,319 --> 00:23:07,796
Mr. Douglas. Mr. Douglas.
531
00:23:07,820 --> 00:23:09,286
What?
532
00:23:09,355 --> 00:23:11,466
You'd better get
Out of town. Why?
533
00:23:11,490 --> 00:23:13,168
They're going to tar and feather
You for getting that tax refund.
534
00:23:13,192 --> 00:23:14,952
Darling, I'm so proud of you.
535
00:23:15,528 --> 00:23:16,694
Proud?
536
00:23:16,762 --> 00:23:18,640
Mr. Drucker's
Supplying the feathers,
537
00:23:18,664 --> 00:23:20,742
And they're gettin' up a
Collection for a barrel of tar.
538
00:23:20,766 --> 00:23:22,666
I gave 50 cents.
539
00:23:22,735 --> 00:23:25,080
Do I have to give
Something, too?
540
00:23:25,104 --> 00:23:26,370
No, you, uh...
541
00:23:26,439 --> 00:23:28,639
Would you mind telling me
What you're talking about?
542
00:23:28,708 --> 00:23:29,784
The tax refund.
543
00:23:29,808 --> 00:23:31,542
I thought they were
Happy about that.
544
00:23:31,611 --> 00:23:33,188
They were until
They got the bill.
545
00:23:33,212 --> 00:23:34,245
What bill?
546
00:23:34,313 --> 00:23:35,624
The one the governor sent 'em.
547
00:23:35,648 --> 00:23:38,249
He said since the state's
Refundin' the tax money
548
00:23:38,317 --> 00:23:41,230
Then we've got to pay for all
The work they done around here.
549
00:23:41,254 --> 00:23:43,287
$8,000 for road repair,
550
00:23:43,356 --> 00:23:45,356
$9,000 for a bridge,
551
00:23:45,424 --> 00:23:47,725
$3,000 for a water tank.
552
00:23:47,793 --> 00:23:51,528
$222,000 for
Hooterville high school.
553
00:23:51,597 --> 00:23:53,597
Well, anyway, it
Comes to a grand total
554
00:23:53,666 --> 00:23:57,368
Of $3,498,000.22.
555
00:23:58,137 --> 00:23:59,870
What?
556
00:23:59,938 --> 00:24:01,350
Divide that up between
Everybody in hooterville,
557
00:24:01,374 --> 00:24:03,607
It comes to $600,000 apiece.
558
00:24:03,676 --> 00:24:05,208
They can't...
559
00:24:05,278 --> 00:24:07,844
I'm going to have to ask
For an advance on my salary.
560
00:24:07,913 --> 00:24:09,580
That's ridiculous!
561
00:24:10,316 --> 00:24:12,383
They can't do this.
562
00:24:12,451 --> 00:24:14,818
Long before this
State was founded,
563
00:24:14,887 --> 00:24:17,599
♪ the american farmer
Lay down his rake and his hoe
564
00:24:17,623 --> 00:24:20,624
To take up the fight
Against tyranny and injustice,
565
00:24:20,693 --> 00:24:23,260
Dumping tea into
The boston harbor.
566
00:24:23,329 --> 00:24:26,697
Riding through every
Middlesex village and farm.
567
00:24:26,766 --> 00:24:29,800
1 if by land, 2 if by sea.
568
00:24:29,868 --> 00:24:33,370
And as the hoof-beats of paul revere's
Horse echoed through the streets,
569
00:24:33,439 --> 00:24:36,718
The american farmers came out
Of the houses, out of the farms,
570
00:24:36,742 --> 00:24:38,153
Out of... Oliver.
571
00:24:38,177 --> 00:24:39,209
What?
572
00:24:39,278 --> 00:24:41,244
Who is playing the fife?
573
00:25:24,890 --> 00:25:27,458
this has been a filmways
Presentation, darling.
