00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,960
Good afternoon, Mrs. Bolton. Good
afternoon, Greg.

2
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,400
Good afternoon, Mr. Bolton. Hello, Bill.

3
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,400
No, I'm sorry. I can't talk about it
now.

4
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,840
No, no. I'm expecting a long distance
call.

5
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,360
Well, phone me in the morning.

6
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:46,800
Around 11.

7
00:02:46,820 --> 00:02:48,100
Right. Right, thanks.

8
00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:49,300
Bye.

9
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,720
Paper? Oh, hello, darling. Well, how'd
everything go this afternoon?

10
00:02:55,020 --> 00:02:57,020
Max phone said we had 14 standees.

11
00:02:58,300 --> 00:03:01,320
I thought you were going to pick me up
at the theater after the matinee.

12
00:03:02,580 --> 00:03:05,780
Oh, I'm sorry, dear. I've been waiting
around for a call from Daphne. Oh, I got

13
00:03:05,780 --> 00:03:09,200
her rewrite this morning. She has done a
fabulous job. Absolutely fabulous.

14
00:03:09,660 --> 00:03:12,800
This is the part you were born for,
darling. This is what you've been

15
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,020
for. I've been waiting for only one
thing. A vacation.

16
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:18,380
A gloriously long one.

17
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,760
And until I've had it, I'm not going to
do any play.

18
00:03:22,260 --> 00:03:23,260
Why don't you have a drink?

19
00:03:23,540 --> 00:03:26,540
Mike! The theater was simply broiling
this afternoon.

20
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,140
During the party scene, I thought I was
going to literally suffocate. Yes, Mr.

21
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,860
Bowden? Oh, Mike, fix a drink tray, will
you? And put a couple of limes on it.

22
00:03:34,980 --> 00:03:35,980
Yes.

23
00:03:39,390 --> 00:03:40,890
Hello? Yes, yes, put her off.

24
00:03:41,810 --> 00:03:42,810
Yes.

25
00:03:43,530 --> 00:03:44,530
Yes, this is he.

26
00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:46,530
Yes, yes, I'm on the line.

27
00:03:47,930 --> 00:03:49,450
She might possibly be in the kitchen.

28
00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:52,310
She enjoys watching the cook make pies
and cakes and things.

29
00:03:52,850 --> 00:03:53,849
Hello, Daphne.

30
00:03:53,850 --> 00:03:55,490
Daphne, darling, how are you?

31
00:03:56,490 --> 00:03:58,470
Yes, yes, lovely girl, got the play this
noon.

32
00:03:58,710 --> 00:04:01,410
I am mad about it. You've done a
fantastic job.

33
00:04:01,730 --> 00:04:02,830
What a part for Lydia.

34
00:04:03,730 --> 00:04:06,830
Listen, why don't you throw some pajamas
and a typewriter in a bag and hop a

35
00:04:06,830 --> 00:04:07,830
plane and meet us at the farm?

36
00:04:07,980 --> 00:04:11,220
I'd love it. The picture I'm on finishes
tomorrow. I've just been polishing

37
00:04:11,220 --> 00:04:12,220
dialogue on the set.

38
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,280
And, uh, well, I was going to get out of
town anyway.

39
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,320
Yeah. I'm breaking it off with Tony.

40
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,600
Well, somehow I never could picture you
on the arm of a tough guy.

41
00:04:21,860 --> 00:04:22,679
He's not.

42
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,080
He's afraid of his own agent.

43
00:04:24,860 --> 00:04:28,760
It's just that he's played so many
gangster parts that it's gone to, well,

44
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,080
want of a better word, his head.

45
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,500
All he does all day long is flip a half
a dollar and sneer.

46
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,840
Right. Well, let us know when you're
arriving.

47
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,600
Bye, Angel.

48
00:04:37,690 --> 00:04:38,690
Bye.

49
00:04:42,410 --> 00:04:43,410
Arthur.

50
00:04:55,850 --> 00:04:56,850
Dear.

51
00:04:57,630 --> 00:04:59,790
I thought we could have another little
talk.

52
00:05:00,230 --> 00:05:04,330
Won't do you any good? I told you I'm
not leaving here.

53
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,640
I wanted you to meet a friend of mine.
He happened to be in the neighborhood.

54
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,360
This is Arthur.

55
00:05:10,840 --> 00:05:12,840
Hi. How do you do, my dear?

56
00:05:13,140 --> 00:05:14,480
I'm so glad to know you.

57
00:05:14,740 --> 00:05:16,040
You an angel, too?

58
00:05:16,260 --> 00:05:17,260
Of course.

59
00:05:17,300 --> 00:05:19,200
He's awful fat for an angel.

60
00:05:19,700 --> 00:05:21,900
Angels, like shoes, come in all sizes.

61
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:25,040
Well, glad to have met you.

62
00:05:25,260 --> 00:05:26,260
Goodbye.

63
00:05:26,940 --> 00:05:32,000
Stubborn, inconsiderate little rake.
Charles, you must control your temper.

64
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,340
you were sarcastic with it before.

65
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,460
That's far from angelic. But she's been
acting like this for years. Complete

66
00:05:37,460 --> 00:05:38,780
insubordination. Oh.

67
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,160
Well, just don't stand there, Arthur.
You promised to help me. Do something.

68
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:46,900
Talk to her. I will, I will.

69
00:05:47,700 --> 00:05:50,400
But first I want to be sure I have my
facts straight.

70
00:05:51,660 --> 00:05:54,520
This cherub is the unborn child of the
couple who live here?

71
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:55,800
Correct.

72
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,820
How long has she been waiting for birth?

73
00:05:58,560 --> 00:05:59,600
Approximately seven years.

74
00:06:00,260 --> 00:06:02,620
And you think the situation is hopeless?
Completely.

75
00:06:03,130 --> 00:06:07,310
When she picked this couple as
prospective parents, she selected two of

76
00:06:07,310 --> 00:06:10,850
selfish people that has ever been my
displeasure to know. Of course, I mean

77
00:06:10,850 --> 00:06:11,850
selfish in the true sense.

78
00:06:12,690 --> 00:06:16,490
Oh, they're only too willing to help
others as long as it costs only money.

79
00:06:17,830 --> 00:06:22,890
As for sharing time, sympathy, and
happiness with anyone other than

80
00:06:23,570 --> 00:06:25,930
they're miserly.

81
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,580
Somebody has a strange conception of
angels.

82
00:06:33,860 --> 00:06:34,860
Oh, dear.

83
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,460
You said, I believe, they were of the
theater.

84
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,520
Successful? Eminently.

85
00:06:41,700 --> 00:06:45,700
About eight years ago, he directed a
play which received great acclaim.

86
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:53,080
The devotees of the theater called him
the genius, miracle man, boy wonder, and

87
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,800
all the other superlatives which they
continually bestow upon mere adequacy.

88
00:06:58,330 --> 00:07:00,230
She acted in the play, they met.

89
00:07:00,750 --> 00:07:04,530
He fell in love with himself, she fell
in love with herself, and they were

90
00:07:04,530 --> 00:07:05,530
married.

91
00:07:06,070 --> 00:07:07,750
Since then, they've always been a team.

92
00:07:08,370 --> 00:07:11,350
He producing and directing the plays,
and she acting in them.

93
00:07:12,590 --> 00:07:16,710
They consider their work in the theater
of importance equal only to cancer

94
00:07:16,710 --> 00:07:20,410
research. Well, tell me, are they
satisfied with their marriage?

95
00:07:20,990 --> 00:07:24,030
That's what they tell each other, but
they're gradually forgetting the meaning

96
00:07:24,030 --> 00:07:24,889
of the word.

97
00:07:24,890 --> 00:07:28,430
Oh. They're beginning to get on each
other's nerves because they have no

98
00:07:28,430 --> 00:07:30,830
interests outside their individual
careers.

99
00:07:32,030 --> 00:07:35,070
The marriage can't last much longer.
It's a shame, too.

100
00:07:35,890 --> 00:07:36,890
Fundamentally, they're worthwhile.

101
00:07:39,010 --> 00:07:43,490
To have the child, of course, would be
the salvation of the marriage, but that

102
00:07:43,490 --> 00:07:46,910
will never happen because they've come
to the sophisticated and idiotic

103
00:07:46,910 --> 00:07:50,250
conclusion that they owe themselves
completely to the theatre.

104
00:07:55,310 --> 00:07:56,370
They would only realize.

105
00:07:59,150 --> 00:08:01,790
Have you changed your mind? Are you
coming with me?

106
00:08:02,130 --> 00:08:04,830
No. I'm going to stay right here.

107
00:08:05,550 --> 00:08:07,450
Did you say your name was Arthur?

108
00:08:07,810 --> 00:08:08,489
Mm -hmm.

109
00:08:08,490 --> 00:08:10,230
And you're Charles. Yes.

110
00:08:11,110 --> 00:08:14,510
Who ever heard of angels with names like
Charles and Arthur?

111
00:08:14,950 --> 00:08:21,230
I've heard of Michael, Gabriel, Raphael,
Uriel, Asriel. A higher echelon.

112
00:08:21,610 --> 00:08:25,990
But not me, Charles of the Northers.
There are many things you haven't heard

113
00:08:26,050 --> 00:08:28,430
You're such a young soul. No one expects
you to.

114
00:08:29,830 --> 00:08:32,390
Why don't you come over and sit down?
Let's have a little chat.

115
00:08:35,070 --> 00:08:37,690
I'm not going to hurt you, dear. I'm
here to help you.

116
00:08:45,570 --> 00:08:46,570
That's better.

117
00:08:47,270 --> 00:08:49,110
My, you're a lovely soul.

118
00:08:49,450 --> 00:08:50,450
A treasure.

119
00:08:51,070 --> 00:08:53,670
You'll grace, beautify, bring joy to any
home.

120
00:08:54,290 --> 00:08:57,090
But I'm afraid not this one. No chance
for you here.

121
00:08:57,330 --> 00:08:58,330
Why not?

122
00:08:58,370 --> 00:09:00,190
Well, simply because these two don't
want children.

123
00:09:00,430 --> 00:09:02,790
But if I got born, they might change
their minds.

124
00:09:03,270 --> 00:09:05,730
You see, I don't want it just for
myself.

125
00:09:05,990 --> 00:09:08,870
They need me. They need something to
hold them together.

126
00:09:09,330 --> 00:09:13,410
Something that belongs to both of them.
Something to have fun with and fuss

127
00:09:13,410 --> 00:09:18,390
over. And get mad at, too. Yes, that's
undoubtedly true. But first you've got

128
00:09:18,390 --> 00:09:19,390
be born.

129
00:09:19,450 --> 00:09:20,850
Well, that's what I've been waiting for.

130
00:09:21,270 --> 00:09:22,830
Why don't I get born?

131
00:09:23,270 --> 00:09:25,810
Well, you see... How

132
00:09:25,810 --> 00:09:35,730
do

133
00:09:35,730 --> 00:09:36,930
you think we'd better proceed?

134
00:09:37,290 --> 00:09:38,910
I suggest changing the subject.

135
00:09:41,890 --> 00:09:43,570
Well, now, dear, let's be practical.

136
00:09:43,990 --> 00:09:46,910
Do you think these people are worth all
this trouble and waiting?

137
00:09:47,210 --> 00:09:48,210
Oh, yes.

138
00:09:48,490 --> 00:09:49,890
Down deep, they're really wonderful.

139
00:09:50,450 --> 00:09:51,990
I've known them for a long time.

140
00:09:52,770 --> 00:09:54,110
I was at their wedding.

141
00:09:54,490 --> 00:09:59,030
Oh, you should have been there. They
were so happy and gay and full of life.

142
00:09:59,650 --> 00:10:01,470
I made up my mind right then.

143
00:10:01,790 --> 00:10:03,770
I wanted them for my parents.

144
00:10:04,190 --> 00:10:06,010
But you're just wanting them isn't
enough.

145
00:10:06,270 --> 00:10:07,370
They've got to want you.

146
00:10:08,330 --> 00:10:09,690
And that brings up another question.

147
00:10:10,490 --> 00:10:12,050
You're not getting any younger, you
know.

148
00:10:12,350 --> 00:10:15,550
If you hang around here much longer, if
you ever do get born, you'll be an old

149
00:10:15,550 --> 00:10:19,470
woman. Mentally, that is, to be born one
of those frightening child prodigies.

150
00:10:19,650 --> 00:10:21,070
Old soul, infant body.

151
00:10:21,310 --> 00:10:26,610
Be playing Chopin masterfully at three,
composing at four, reciting the Old

152
00:10:26,610 --> 00:10:30,710
Testament in Hebraic at five, and doing
murals at six. Now, if that's what you

153
00:10:30,710 --> 00:10:33,790
want, if you want to be born one of
those, all well and good, you just go

154
00:10:33,790 --> 00:10:35,170
ahead, stay here, and wait.

155
00:10:35,770 --> 00:10:37,530
Wait your silly little head off.

156
00:10:38,050 --> 00:10:41,870
Charles, you're resorting to sarcasm
again.

157
00:10:42,310 --> 00:10:44,410
No wonder they won't give you more
important assignments.

158
00:10:45,110 --> 00:10:47,740
Success. Successful angels do not use
sarcasm.

159
00:10:48,780 --> 00:10:50,540
Sometimes I wonder how you got your
wings.

160
00:10:51,580 --> 00:10:56,700
I know it's a weakness of mine, Arthur,
but... Arthur, I have my own work to do,

161
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,140
and if I'm willing to help you, the
least you can do is... Where are you

162
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,660
I just remembered I've got a date.

163
00:11:01,140 --> 00:11:02,440
Well, here we go again.

164
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:03,760
Come back here.

165
00:11:08,220 --> 00:11:09,840
Slippery little eel, isn't she? Yes.

166
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:11,720
She's not around here. I've looked
everywhere.

167
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,400
Sorry, Charles, I must go. Heidi Kaya
just called me. Oh, Walter, can't wait.

168
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:21,980
It won't take long. Well, please hurry.

169
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:23,200
Won't be a minute.

170
00:11:31,180 --> 00:11:37,460
What do you mean, running away like
that? What are you doing sitting here?

171
00:11:37,700 --> 00:11:39,240
I told you I had a date.

172
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:41,460
Here he comes now.

173
00:11:49,130 --> 00:11:49,829
Hello, Joe.

174
00:11:49,830 --> 00:11:51,390
Hello. No luck?

175
00:11:51,630 --> 00:11:53,310
No. Me neither.

176
00:11:54,010 --> 00:11:55,650
Oh, I want you to meet Mr.

177
00:11:55,850 --> 00:11:58,850
Charles. He's the angel that's been
wanting me to come back.

178
00:11:59,370 --> 00:12:00,370
Hello, Joe.

179
00:12:00,610 --> 00:12:01,569
How are you?

180
00:12:01,570 --> 00:12:02,570
Hello.

181
00:12:02,830 --> 00:12:07,610
I got one that's been after me, too. His
name's Mr. Horace. Oh, Horace. A friend

182
00:12:07,610 --> 00:12:08,429
of mine.

183
00:12:08,430 --> 00:12:09,530
Remember me to him.

184
00:12:10,010 --> 00:12:12,750
Joe's in the same boat. He's been
waiting for years.

185
00:12:13,190 --> 00:12:17,730
Gets monotonous, too. Being so close and
so far all at the same time.

186
00:12:18,170 --> 00:12:20,030
They even got my name picked out, Joe.

187
00:12:21,030 --> 00:12:23,750
You see, my prospective father's a
writer.

188
00:12:23,950 --> 00:12:25,130
Hasn't got a dime.

189
00:12:25,570 --> 00:12:27,090
Hasn't been able to sell anything.

190
00:12:27,490 --> 00:12:33,290
Until he does, well... Look, Joe,
wouldn't it be fun to be able to taste

191
00:12:33,290 --> 00:12:34,370
cream? Sure would.

192
00:12:39,430 --> 00:12:40,430
Well,

193
00:12:41,630 --> 00:12:42,870
I better be getting back.

194
00:12:43,210 --> 00:12:45,570
He was working on a short story when I
left.

195
00:12:45,900 --> 00:12:50,880
Hope it turns out good. Be nice if we
could sell it to the movies, but... See

196
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,300
ya. Bye, Joe.

197
00:12:52,900 --> 00:12:53,900
Goodbye, Joe.

198
00:12:54,460 --> 00:12:55,460
Bye.

199
00:12:57,340 --> 00:13:00,680
Everything we've done so far, thank
heaven the critics have shouted about

200
00:13:00,740 --> 00:13:02,800
But believe me, darling, this is the one
they'll remember.

201
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,480
It's wide open for me to do an entirely
new kind of staging.

202
00:13:06,980 --> 00:13:10,620
And as for you, Clarice isn't just a
part, it's a challenge.

203
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,040
Until they bury the theater, it'll be
known as the test of an actress's

204
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,040
greatness.

205
00:13:15,390 --> 00:13:18,970
After she licks Juliet, and Electra, and
Canada, and Lady Macbeth, and Joan,

206
00:13:19,090 --> 00:13:20,970
then she'll play Clarice.

207
00:13:21,430 --> 00:13:22,870
Just to find out if she's really got it.

208
00:13:23,250 --> 00:13:26,810
There's a part that will absolutely
put... Oh, Jeff, stop it, please. That's

209
00:13:26,810 --> 00:13:29,390
what you said about the last play and
the play before that.

210
00:13:29,830 --> 00:13:34,070
And if you must eat those vile things,
please keep them at breast length. You

211
00:13:34,070 --> 00:13:36,070
know, even the odor makes me deathly
ill.

212
00:13:38,490 --> 00:13:40,970
She can't stand them, but he loves them.

213
00:13:41,310 --> 00:13:43,830
I wonder what things smell and taste
like.

214
00:13:44,270 --> 00:13:45,270
Especially peanuts.

215
00:13:45,690 --> 00:13:47,190
I've often been curious myself.

216
00:13:48,470 --> 00:13:51,590
But not especially about peanuts.

217
00:13:55,250 --> 00:13:56,830
We're a little edgy tonight, aren't we?

218
00:13:57,490 --> 00:13:59,210
And with good cause, I think.

219
00:13:59,790 --> 00:14:03,010
I come home for a moment's rest between
performances, and you keep selling me

220
00:14:03,010 --> 00:14:05,070
this script as if you were trying to get
me to back the show.

221
00:14:05,470 --> 00:14:07,170
I merely ask you to look at it.

222
00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:09,270
We've got plenty of time for magazines.

223
00:14:10,470 --> 00:14:13,090
Daphne's beat her brains out rewriting
this play. It seems the least you can do

224
00:14:13,090 --> 00:14:14,090
is to read it.

225
00:14:14,220 --> 00:14:16,620
At the moment, I am still playing a
play.

226
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,800
I have played it 517 times.

227
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,900
I have played it with fever. I have
played it with chills.

228
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,720
I have played it with three cracked ribs
and an abscessed tooth.

229
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,260
And I'm exhausted.

230
00:14:28,860 --> 00:14:30,560
Completely and utterly exhausted.

231
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,180
Well, in the past, no matter how tired
you were, you couldn't wait to read your

232
00:14:34,180 --> 00:14:34,879
next one.

233
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,720
If you must know, I'm afraid to read
this one.

234
00:14:39,780 --> 00:14:41,100
Afraid? Yes.

235
00:14:41,860 --> 00:14:42,860
For two reasons.

236
00:14:43,750 --> 00:14:46,090
First, it might be a colossal failure.

237
00:14:46,490 --> 00:14:51,370
Oh, sweet. Not this one. It's a smash.
Believe me. And that's my second reason.

238
00:14:51,490 --> 00:14:54,810
It might be a colossal success, which
would be worse. Wait a minute, darling.

239
00:14:55,070 --> 00:14:56,070
It's true.

240
00:14:56,350 --> 00:14:57,490
What will it give us?

241
00:14:58,090 --> 00:15:02,130
If we're lucky, we'll run for two years.
Two years of the same day -by -day

242
00:15:02,130 --> 00:15:03,710
existence without purpose or meaning.

243
00:15:04,030 --> 00:15:07,290
Yes, but darling... We don't know where
reality begins and pose leaves off

244
00:15:07,290 --> 00:15:09,390
anymore. We're useless, Jack.

245
00:15:10,390 --> 00:15:12,010
Stagnant. Oh, come, darling.

246
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,120
We needn't apologize for our lives or
our marriage.

247
00:15:16,260 --> 00:15:18,700
As I see it, we've done an awfully good
job of both.

248
00:15:21,260 --> 00:15:22,380
To us, sweet.

249
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,180
And to the children we might have had.

250
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,220
Look, darling, I understand completely.

251
00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:35,220
I understand how you feel. I want
children just as much as you. You know

252
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,100
But where are the theater?

253
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,420
The jealous, fickle, all -consuming
theater.

254
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,940
It demands our companionship, our
energy, and our affection.

255
00:15:44,860 --> 00:15:47,020
And it'll never settle for 50 cents on
the dollar.

256
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,880
But one of these days, we'll retire in
triumph and give ourselves to our

257
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,220
children with the same devotion we're
giving ourselves to the theater.

258
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:58,460
Jeff, you've been saying that for...
I've never heard such unmitigated

259
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,860
Such stupid, selfish... Surely after
hearing that, you don't intend to stay.

260
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,560
Oh, they'll change their minds. I know
they will.

261
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:07,520
Never.

262
00:16:07,820 --> 00:16:12,780
Never. But, Mr. Charles, they change
their minds about plays all the time. So

263
00:16:12,780 --> 00:16:15,960
I'm sure they'll change their minds
about me. At the very thought of

264
00:16:16,060 --> 00:16:18,420
he rationalizes you out of any possible
existence.

265
00:16:18,900 --> 00:16:19,900
Feel better?

266
00:16:19,980 --> 00:16:21,840
Yes. I'm sorry I went all to pieces.

267
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,600
Lately, it seems we're forever getting
on each other's nerves. No, no. It was

268
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,120
all my fault. Forgive me.

269
00:16:28,380 --> 00:16:30,540
I was acting like a director and not a
husband.

270
00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:32,380
I should have been more sensitive.

271
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,420
No, I was the difficult one. You were
right. I can see it now.

272
00:16:35,700 --> 00:16:37,740
You just lie here and take it easy. I'm
going up to change.

273
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,160
Where's the script?

274
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,200
On the coffee table.

275
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,880
I might as well start reading it. Good.
We'll talk about it tonight.

276
00:16:43,260 --> 00:16:46,780
And first thing in the morning, I'll go
out and dig me up a nice, juicy angel.

277
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:48,860
The man's an idiot.

278
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:56,520
There's no such thing as a juicy angel,
and they're definitely not dug up.

279
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,740
He didn't mean angels like you. He meant
angels with money.

280
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,380
Somebody to back the show.

281
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:04,800
Oh, I see.

282
00:17:05,409 --> 00:17:09,030
Wait a minute. This gives me an idea. I
think I found the solution.

283
00:17:09,470 --> 00:17:11,210
My orders say settle the case.

284
00:17:11,530 --> 00:17:13,730
That does not necessarily mean I have to
bring you back.

285
00:17:13,970 --> 00:17:17,250
There is another way to settle the case.
How, Mr. Charles, how?

286
00:17:17,750 --> 00:17:21,770
I'm going to materialize, become human
for a time, meet these two holdouts and

287
00:17:21,770 --> 00:17:24,190
make them see the limitless joys of
parenthood.

288
00:17:24,770 --> 00:17:26,690
I'm going to get you born, you little
doll.

289
00:17:27,310 --> 00:17:30,070
Oh, Mr. Charles, can you do it? Really?

290
00:17:30,390 --> 00:17:31,390
I'm sure I can.

291
00:17:31,930 --> 00:17:36,250
You see, I should become this juicy
angel your future daddy is going to dig

292
00:17:36,250 --> 00:17:39,010
tomorrow. But he likes them with money.
That's easy.

293
00:17:39,330 --> 00:17:40,990
I'll simply make him think I have money.

294
00:17:41,390 --> 00:17:44,690
My dear humans do it every day. Now,
where does he meet these people, and

295
00:17:44,690 --> 00:17:47,290
exactly do these dug -up characters look
and act like?

296
00:17:48,610 --> 00:17:54,050
Well, the last 20 men at the racetrack,
and they're going there tomorrow.

297
00:17:54,270 --> 00:17:57,770
You could meet him there. He's
superstitious. He'd think it was an

298
00:17:58,030 --> 00:17:59,030
No, no, no.

299
00:17:59,370 --> 00:18:00,370
Don't rush things.

300
00:18:00,990 --> 00:18:01,990
What did he look like?

301
00:18:02,410 --> 00:18:06,390
Well, he was tall and had a big cattle
ranch way out west.

302
00:18:06,690 --> 00:18:08,470
And he talked and walked and looked.

303
00:18:08,870 --> 00:18:13,090
Wait a minute. Come on, I can show you
just what he was like. Come on. Come on.

304
00:18:33,260 --> 00:18:36,120
Of course, you realize that if you're
successful with our project, you won't

305
00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:37,079
this lucky.

306
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,200
After you're born, you'll have to pay to
get in. It'll be worth it.

307
00:18:40,620 --> 00:18:41,620
Hmm.

308
00:19:19,950 --> 00:19:21,030
Now, let's see. Who do you like?

309
00:19:21,290 --> 00:19:23,950
I like, uh, El Shribo.

310
00:19:24,150 --> 00:19:25,150
El Shribo.

311
00:19:25,530 --> 00:19:26,790
El Shribo. Now, let's see.

312
00:19:27,990 --> 00:19:29,490
El Shribo. El Shribo.

313
00:19:29,870 --> 00:19:32,490
No, I don't think so, dear. He has a
very bad jockey, Art Klum.

314
00:19:32,890 --> 00:19:33,890
Never won a race.

315
00:19:56,270 --> 00:19:57,270
Thank you. Thank you.

316
00:19:57,290 --> 00:19:59,150
That was the strangest thing.

317
00:19:59,470 --> 00:20:01,870
Perfectly still and then that sudden
gust of wind.

318
00:20:02,830 --> 00:20:05,850
I'll see to your program you got number
three marked down as your choice.

319
00:20:06,450 --> 00:20:08,690
I kind of cut into number seven myself.

320
00:20:09,350 --> 00:20:11,910
Number seven? Well, I hadn't even
considered that one.

321
00:20:12,830 --> 00:20:14,810
Then you better not. He hasn't a chance.

322
00:20:15,490 --> 00:20:17,350
Now listen, this guy's probably out of
town.

323
00:20:25,770 --> 00:20:27,970
The horses will reach the starting gate
in five minutes.

324
00:21:11,980 --> 00:21:13,860
When he told us to bet on it.

325
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:22,240
One is

326
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,640
just as easy as roping a fence post.

327
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,960
And he'll pay close to $20, too.

328
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,260
Who do you like in the second?

329
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:38,280
Well, ma 'am, I'll sort of leave a roly
-poly at number nine.

330
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,040
He was just lucky this race. Roly -poly
won't be close.

331
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,940
Get Tiny Tim and Roly -poly.

332
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,740
Roly -poly on the inside. Tiny Tim on
the inside. Come on, Tiny!

333
00:21:50,260 --> 00:21:52,140
Come on, he's going to do it! Come on,
boy!

334
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,480
Come on, Tiny! Come on, Tiny! He did it!

335
00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:55,940
Roly -poly a second.

336
00:21:56,220 --> 00:22:00,140
See, I told you Tiny Tim would do it.
Number nine ran second anyway.

337
00:22:01,100 --> 00:22:04,020
Oh, I wouldn't tear up that ticket, ma
'am, if I was you.

338
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,520
I think you'll find that you... Your
attention.

339
00:22:31,050 --> 00:22:36,410
disqualified. The official result now
appears on the Togolai Zeta Boy.

340
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:01,859
Mr. Charles?

341
00:23:01,860 --> 00:23:04,920
Just make yourself at home, Mr. Charles.
We'll be right down. No cause for

342
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,160
rushing, ma 'am. Won't be a minute.

343
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,340
Okay, partner. Okay, okay. Oh,

344
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,720
Mr.

345
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:22,520
Charles, you're wonderful.

346
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,260
You look and act just perfect.

347
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,480
There's only one difficulty. These high
heels are killing.

348
00:23:28,660 --> 00:23:29,680
Good evening, Charles.

349
00:23:31,770 --> 00:23:36,390
Arthur, I didn't expect you... Why in
the name of heaven are you here? In the

350
00:23:36,390 --> 00:23:37,390
name of heaven?

351
00:23:37,490 --> 00:23:38,650
I want to talk to you.

352
00:23:39,430 --> 00:23:40,730
Perhaps we'd better go out on the
balcony.

353
00:23:41,030 --> 00:23:43,630
If they should come down and see you
talking to thin air, they'll think

354
00:23:43,630 --> 00:23:44,630
crazy.

355
00:23:50,310 --> 00:23:52,970
Remember, you're human now. You've got
to open them.

356
00:23:58,870 --> 00:23:59,870
Don't...

357
00:24:00,919 --> 00:24:02,740
Me. I'll learn. I'll learn.

358
00:24:03,900 --> 00:24:06,320
After all, you know, you didn't fly so
well the first time.

359
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:07,800
Charles.

360
00:24:08,460 --> 00:24:12,380
In the long time I've known you, you've
done many foolish things, but this is

361
00:24:12,380 --> 00:24:14,740
undoubtedly the most idiotic. To the
contrary.

362
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,000
I think it was a brilliant idea on my
part.

363
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:18,880
But you don't know what you're letting
yourself in for.

364
00:24:19,360 --> 00:24:21,340
Taking on flesh is not easy. Nonsense.

365
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,340
Human beings do it, and you know what
morons they are. But I've had

366
00:24:25,620 --> 00:24:28,460
You'll find many temptations and... My
dear Arthur, please don't worry.

367
00:24:29,330 --> 00:24:31,910
I'm completely capable of coping with
temptation.

368
00:24:32,250 --> 00:24:35,290
Well, just in case you're overestimating
your ability, I've been assigned to

369
00:24:35,290 --> 00:24:36,330
keep an eye on you. Oh, Mr. Charles.

370
00:24:36,770 --> 00:24:38,030
I think they're looking for you.

371
00:24:38,430 --> 00:24:39,430
Hmm.

372
00:24:39,750 --> 00:24:43,030
Here they are. I'll be around, just in
case.

373
00:24:43,550 --> 00:24:44,409
Nice view.

374
00:24:44,410 --> 00:24:45,389
Sure is.

375
00:24:45,390 --> 00:24:47,970
Mighty fine shack you got here, partner.
Well, thanks. It's comfortable.

376
00:24:48,290 --> 00:24:49,290
How many rooms?

377
00:24:49,370 --> 00:24:50,370
Seven.

378
00:24:50,710 --> 00:24:51,910
Big family, I suppose.

379
00:24:52,150 --> 00:24:53,690
No, just Mrs. Bolton and myself.

380
00:24:53,970 --> 00:24:55,210
And, of course, Lynn and Alfred.

381
00:24:55,490 --> 00:24:56,490
Huh?

382
00:24:57,250 --> 00:24:58,250
Oh, yeah.

383
00:24:59,830 --> 00:25:04,190
Seems kind of sinful wasting all this
space and always entertain the notion

384
00:25:04,190 --> 00:25:06,030
shacks and big families kind of run
together.

385
00:25:06,930 --> 00:25:10,870
Nothing more joyful than having a full
house, whether it be poker or family.

386
00:25:11,110 --> 00:25:12,230
That's right. Fix you a drink?

387
00:25:12,650 --> 00:25:14,210
Thanks, partner. Don't mind if I do.

388
00:25:14,950 --> 00:25:15,950
Charles?

389
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:37,320
Oh, liquor?

390
00:25:37,660 --> 00:25:40,120
No, no, never touch the stuff.

391
00:25:41,580 --> 00:25:45,300
I'm so very sorry to have kept you
waiting, Mr. Charles.

392
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,680
When I see you like that, ma 'am,
strikes me you're well worth waiting

393
00:25:50,940 --> 00:25:52,280
You dear man.

394
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,560
Just think, Jeff, if it hadn't been for
that sudden puff of wind, we probably

395
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,600
never would have met this divine person.

396
00:25:59,420 --> 00:26:02,860
I like to think of that sudden puff as
an angel's breath.

397
00:26:03,790 --> 00:26:04,790
Yup.

398
00:26:05,510 --> 00:26:11,950
Lucky for me, too, because I take you
both like sick kittens to warm bricks,

399
00:26:11,950 --> 00:26:17,450
'am. What a delightful way to put it.
And I adore you calling me ma 'am, but

400
00:26:17,450 --> 00:26:18,389
make it Lydia.

401
00:26:18,390 --> 00:26:19,390
And Jeff.

402
00:26:19,690 --> 00:26:20,690
Admire, too.

403
00:26:21,930 --> 00:26:27,350
Westerners have such colorful nicknames.
I was wondering why... I've sometimes

404
00:26:27,350 --> 00:26:29,570
been called slim.

405
00:26:30,410 --> 00:26:32,670
Somehow I felt it would be slim.

406
00:26:33,340 --> 00:26:35,240
The name's so... so friendly.

407
00:26:36,140 --> 00:26:37,680
May I call you Slim?

408
00:26:38,420 --> 00:26:39,760
My, haven't you?

409
00:26:41,220 --> 00:26:44,100
You played a harp, Lydia?

410
00:26:44,420 --> 00:26:46,820
No, not really. I used it once in a
show.

411
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:48,980
I pick at it occasionally.

412
00:26:51,020 --> 00:26:52,960
But do you play, Slim?

413
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:55,720
Little.

414
00:27:15,660 --> 00:27:17,580
Why, Slim, that's heavenly.

415
00:27:18,900 --> 00:27:22,800
It's so incongruous seeing cowboy boots
behind a harp.

416
00:27:23,020 --> 00:27:24,700
Back home, he got plenty of them.

417
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,260
More harps than a gopher has ticks.

418
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:28,640
Where you from, Slim?

419
00:27:29,340 --> 00:27:30,340
God's country.

420
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,740
And I'll bet you're a rancher. What do
you handle?

421
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:35,880
Sheep. Big flock.

422
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:37,880
Powerful big.

423
00:27:38,580 --> 00:27:41,120
How many acres you got, Slim? Never
counted them.

424
00:27:42,660 --> 00:27:43,660
Here on business?

425
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:45,040
Big deal.

426
00:27:45,510 --> 00:27:46,510
Tough, too.

427
00:27:46,870 --> 00:27:48,290
Tougher than a 30 -cent steak.

428
00:27:49,330 --> 00:27:51,810
Well, if there's anything we can do to
help you, Slim, just sing out.

429
00:27:52,350 --> 00:27:53,350
I'm liable to.

430
00:27:53,950 --> 00:27:54,950
Real liable.

431
00:27:55,850 --> 00:27:59,270
You know, Lydia, Slim reminds me so much
of Henry.

432
00:27:59,990 --> 00:28:01,590
He was also a big cattleman.

433
00:28:01,970 --> 00:28:03,990
Come to think of it, I met him at the
track, too, didn't I?

434
00:28:04,230 --> 00:28:06,110
Oh, we became great friends, did a show
together.

435
00:28:06,450 --> 00:28:07,930
He made himself tidy somehow.

436
00:28:08,150 --> 00:28:11,590
I reckon if you pick the right play,
show business can be a right good

437
00:28:11,590 --> 00:28:14,790
investment. It certainly can. Of course,
it's a terrific gamble.

438
00:28:15,669 --> 00:28:18,130
Shucks. I gambled before, did you?

439
00:28:18,370 --> 00:28:22,050
It just so happens we're getting ready
to do a new play written by Daphne

440
00:28:22,050 --> 00:28:23,330
Peters. She did our last.

441
00:28:23,670 --> 00:28:27,610
But this is more than a play. It's an
experience in the theater.

442
00:28:27,850 --> 00:28:30,790
You might even say it's a reflection of
life.

443
00:28:31,470 --> 00:28:32,470
Isn't that right, dear?

444
00:28:33,450 --> 00:28:34,450
Oh, it's magnificent.

445
00:28:34,710 --> 00:28:35,710
I'd like to read it myself.

446
00:28:36,550 --> 00:28:38,830
Think you might be interested in joining
up with us, Slim?

447
00:28:40,050 --> 00:28:41,350
No harm talking about it.

448
00:28:43,810 --> 00:28:45,940
Say, I just got a thought.

449
00:28:46,660 --> 00:28:49,360
You know, we're going down to our farm
for the weekend, and Daphne's meeting us

450
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,740
there. Why don't you join us, Slim, and
we can all sort of kick it around

451
00:28:52,740 --> 00:28:53,740
together.

452
00:28:53,820 --> 00:28:54,820
And Ma, too.

453
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:56,480
Thanks for your hospitality.

454
00:28:58,180 --> 00:28:59,139
Well, who knows?

455
00:28:59,140 --> 00:29:00,400
Someday we may go west.

456
00:29:01,780 --> 00:29:02,860
I'm sure you will.

457
00:29:04,620 --> 00:29:05,620
Everybody does.

458
00:29:07,020 --> 00:29:09,840
Well, Mike. Yes, sir? Better bring some
more cat food.

459
00:29:10,100 --> 00:29:11,100
Yes, sir.

460
00:29:14,190 --> 00:29:17,970
Of course, it's not large compared to
your ranch. It's only 35 acres, but...

461
00:29:17,970 --> 00:29:19,290
Mike, did you remember to bring the
records?

462
00:29:19,530 --> 00:29:23,470
Yes, ma 'am. I wouldn't dream of going
away without Joukowsky. Mighty fine man.

463
00:29:23,690 --> 00:29:24,690
I agree.

464
00:29:29,090 --> 00:29:33,010
Mr. Arthur, aren't you going to ride
down with us? No, thanks. I think I'll

465
00:30:15,850 --> 00:30:19,230
When I get born, it's going to be so
nice to come here. I bet you it's the

466
00:30:19,230 --> 00:30:20,590
peachiest thing you've ever seen.

467
00:30:20,890 --> 00:30:23,410
It's such a beautiful farm, isn't it?
Farm?

468
00:30:24,050 --> 00:30:26,090
No self -respecting reddish would grow
here.

469
00:30:26,650 --> 00:30:28,350
This used to be a useful dairy.

470
00:30:28,730 --> 00:30:29,730
Now look at it.

471
00:30:29,850 --> 00:30:31,530
I wonder what they've done with the pig
pen.

472
00:30:31,870 --> 00:30:34,570
Made a bar out of it. Then you stay away
from the pig pen.

473
00:30:39,150 --> 00:30:40,150
My host.

474
00:30:40,190 --> 00:30:41,910
And I have an idea what he's working up
to.

475
00:30:43,430 --> 00:30:44,430
Uh -oh.

476
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:46,040
Almost forgot.

477
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,300
Hiya, partner. Well, hello, Slim.

478
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:53,700
Just came in to see if you were
comfortable.

479
00:30:53,900 --> 00:30:56,840
Just as cozy as a little old chick on a
sheep's back.

480
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,040
Good, good.

481
00:30:59,140 --> 00:31:03,360
Slim, I naturally don't want to appear
to be rushing things, but you said you

482
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,840
read the play last night. I like it.
It's got more excitement than a rodeo.

483
00:31:07,140 --> 00:31:10,470
Well... So I'd like to get things sort
of started, you know, arrange for a

484
00:31:10,470 --> 00:31:14,630
theater, get a scenic designer, post the
equity bond. You just go right ahead.

485
00:31:15,430 --> 00:31:17,790
Well, that's where you come in.

486
00:31:18,250 --> 00:31:21,210
Of course, I won't need it all right
now, just $20 ,000 or $30 ,000.

487
00:31:22,290 --> 00:31:23,290
Is that all?

488
00:31:23,950 --> 00:31:28,970
Well, as soon as we get back to New
York, I'll go by the bank and... Oh, why

489
00:31:28,970 --> 00:31:30,430
bother? Just write me a check.

490
00:31:31,390 --> 00:31:32,390
Dog gone.

491
00:31:33,050 --> 00:31:36,710
Thanks for reminding me. I knew there
was something I forgot to bring along.

492
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:38,680
Yeah, what was that?

493
00:31:38,980 --> 00:31:43,400
My checkbook. Oh, I have plenty of blank
checks in the house. The trouble is, I

494
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:47,400
wouldn't know which account to draw it
on. But I'll be talking to my partner

495
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,380
a long, and we'll figure it out. Right
nice little red she got here, partner.

496
00:31:51,380 --> 00:31:53,780
soon as I get my saddlebag unpacked, I'd
like to look around.

497
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,240
Lots of lights for dropping in. I might
be comfortable.

498
00:31:57,700 --> 00:31:58,700
Yep.

499
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:13,000
Well, I've talked to him a half a dozen
times, but he keeps worming out of it

500
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,200
and stalling me. Have you tried leaving
a blank check under his dinner plate?

501
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,420
No, but believe it or not, I tucked one
in the corner of his shaving mirror.

502
00:32:19,580 --> 00:32:21,240
What happened? Nothing. It's still
there.

503
00:32:22,460 --> 00:32:27,380
I thought maybe if you'd talk to him,
Daphne, and sort of... Oh, so that's the

504
00:32:27,380 --> 00:32:29,960
gazipe. Well, after all, my dear, it's
your play.

505
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,440
Okay, I'll go to work on him.

506
00:32:35,740 --> 00:32:37,840
I wonder what approach I should use this
time.

507
00:32:38,860 --> 00:32:40,380
Well, the one you've got on is all
right.

508
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,040
How do you like Pennsylvania, Mr.
Charles?

509
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,160
The only thing I miss around here is the
cactus.

510
00:32:48,020 --> 00:32:49,400
Mighty fond of cactus, ma 'am.

511
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:50,640
There you are.

512
00:32:52,260 --> 00:32:58,480
Thank you, Mr. Charles.

513
00:32:58,780 --> 00:33:03,220
You're welcome, ma 'am. Of course, my
friends call me Slim.

514
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,660
I was hoping we could be more than just
friends.

515
00:33:08,159 --> 00:33:09,760
Slim. Hope so, too.

516
00:33:12,540 --> 00:33:13,540
Oh, God.

517
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,940
You smell sweeter than a field of
clover.

518
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:17,960
That ain't hay, is it?

519
00:33:18,260 --> 00:33:19,780
No, ma 'am. Hay's something else again.

520
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,800
Oh, skip it, Slim.

521
00:33:22,780 --> 00:33:24,140
Shall I see you for cocktails?

522
00:33:26,060 --> 00:33:27,060
Margie?

523
00:33:27,540 --> 00:33:28,540
Yep.

524
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,200
Oh, Slim.

525
00:33:30,380 --> 00:33:32,580
Yes, ma 'am. Don't you think you'd
better leave those here?

526
00:33:33,820 --> 00:33:36,340
Oh, excuse me, ma 'am.

527
00:33:36,780 --> 00:33:37,780
Excuse me.

528
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Bye.

529
00:33:41,220 --> 00:33:42,220
Bye.

530
00:33:45,700 --> 00:33:46,700
Bye.

531
00:33:51,900 --> 00:33:52,900
Hello,

532
00:33:54,820 --> 00:33:55,820
Arthur.

533
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:57,380
Enjoying yourself?

534
00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:58,960
Oh, yes.

535
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:05,440
The strangest feeling is creeping
through me. It's a warm, tingling

536
00:34:08,730 --> 00:34:10,850
You better run along and play someplace.

537
00:34:11,210 --> 00:34:12,449
Why are they tingling?

538
00:34:14,530 --> 00:34:16,210
Run along, dear. Run along.

539
00:34:22,989 --> 00:34:27,730
Really, Charles, I'm terribly
disappointed in you. So am I. And a

540
00:34:27,730 --> 00:34:28,730
worried.

541
00:34:29,090 --> 00:34:30,090
Arthur.

542
00:34:32,929 --> 00:34:35,290
Do you remember the first time you tried
your wings?

543
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:41,760
Do you recall that delightful,
titillating sensation as you left the

544
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,020
Well, that's it.

545
00:34:44,380 --> 00:34:45,380
It's love.

546
00:34:45,699 --> 00:34:49,780
A feeling you must not feel again. It's
the one temptation above all others you

547
00:34:49,780 --> 00:34:50,780
must resist.

548
00:34:50,980 --> 00:34:54,639
I know it. And that's what I said to
myself as I stood next to her. I said,

549
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,620
Charles, this is not very angelic of
you.

550
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,100
And then a tiny voice inside of me said,
so what?

551
00:35:03,020 --> 00:35:05,940
You see, the spirit was unwilling, but
the flesh was weak.

552
00:35:06,260 --> 00:35:07,640
A very human trait.

553
00:35:07,940 --> 00:35:10,320
And the solution is to stop it before
you start.

554
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,840
Perhaps I can help you in this.

555
00:35:14,100 --> 00:35:16,860
It... You see these bluebells?

556
00:35:18,140 --> 00:35:23,880
Yes. If at any time I feel you are
succumbing to temptation, I'll ring one

557
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:24,879
them.

558
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:25,880
Like this.

559
00:35:27,940 --> 00:35:28,940
Thank you, Arthur.

560
00:35:29,180 --> 00:35:30,960
That'll be an excellent reminder.

561
00:35:31,850 --> 00:35:34,310
Right now, sir, a body of land you got
here, partner.

562
00:35:34,510 --> 00:35:35,468
Oh, thanks, Slim.

563
00:35:35,470 --> 00:35:36,189
Hello there.

564
00:35:36,190 --> 00:35:38,050
Howdy, ma 'am. How about a drink before
dinner?

565
00:35:38,890 --> 00:35:45,890
Well, I reckon one little old drink
ain't gonna... Well, on second thought,

566
00:35:45,950 --> 00:35:47,830
though, I reckon I'd better skip it for
now.

567
00:35:48,830 --> 00:35:49,830
Well, as you say.

568
00:35:50,490 --> 00:35:55,210
Slim, Daphne and I were just going over
the script, and we... Well, the bull

569
00:35:55,210 --> 00:35:58,710
said as he sunk his horns in the
cowboy's seat, hope he ain't intruding.

570
00:35:59,820 --> 00:36:03,300
On the contrary, we want to talk to you.
Yeah, it's just sort of formulating our

571
00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:07,380
production plan. I reckon a venture like
this takes a lot of formulating. Oh, it

572
00:36:07,380 --> 00:36:08,380
certainly does, certainly does.

573
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,820
You know, Slim, there are a lot of
things to be talked over.

574
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,580
Leases, contracts, that sort of thing.

575
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,380
A lot of considering to be done.

576
00:36:15,720 --> 00:36:16,720
Have some peanuts.

577
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,200
Thanks. I practically have to keep them
locked up with you. I can't stand them.

578
00:36:21,620 --> 00:36:24,220
I might have tasted them. Why don't you
sit down, Slim?

579
00:36:24,860 --> 00:36:25,940
I might have.

580
00:36:26,430 --> 00:36:30,270
You know, Slim, unless a person's
experienced in the theater, he very

581
00:36:30,270 --> 00:36:34,790
doesn't realize the tremendous financial
return that's possible with a good

582
00:36:34,790 --> 00:36:38,250
play. Oh, it's very often, very often.
And this is a good play. I reckon you

583
00:36:38,250 --> 00:36:39,250
ought to know.

584
00:36:40,290 --> 00:36:44,230
After all, you wrote it. It's bound to
be a smash because it's built around a

585
00:36:44,230 --> 00:36:46,650
character with whom everyone will feel a
personal identification.

586
00:36:47,390 --> 00:36:50,250
Would you like me to explain to you how
I see this character?

587
00:36:51,010 --> 00:36:52,010
I'm mad.

588
00:36:52,620 --> 00:36:55,820
Do you mind if I... It's all right,
partner. I'll get it myself.

589
00:37:00,300 --> 00:37:04,140
Say, Slim, excuse me. I'm going to get
some fresh peanuts. These are just a bit

590
00:37:04,140 --> 00:37:06,040
soggy. So is this cigarette.

591
00:37:07,140 --> 00:37:08,520
Slim, sit down.

592
00:37:10,140 --> 00:37:11,140
Thank you, ma 'am.

593
00:37:12,700 --> 00:37:13,700
Oh, no.

594
00:37:14,300 --> 00:37:15,620
Over here beside me.

595
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:18,840
It might.

596
00:37:23,540 --> 00:37:24,540
Way over there.

597
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:32,600
Fred, I'm going to bite you.

598
00:37:33,260 --> 00:37:34,260
Shucks.

599
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:35,640
Ain't a scare to be a bit.

600
00:37:36,540 --> 00:37:37,640
Might kind of like it.

601
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:41,400
Yep.

602
00:37:46,780 --> 00:37:47,780
Come on, a little closer.

603
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:58,380
Slim, what is the matter?

604
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,200
It's just when I get close to you, I
hear bells ringing.

605
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,720
Well, Muhammad won't come to the
mountains.

606
00:38:06,820 --> 00:38:11,680
The way I see this character, she isn't
an evil woman. She's... Well, she's...

607
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:12,960
She's just a woman.

608
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:15,560
Warm.

609
00:38:16,720 --> 00:38:17,720
Appealing.

610
00:38:19,220 --> 00:38:20,220
Inviting.

611
00:38:21,140 --> 00:38:22,140
Exciting.

612
00:38:23,740 --> 00:38:24,740
Sure is.

613
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:27,500
Hair of pure honey.

614
00:38:27,740 --> 00:38:30,180
Yes. She could be played that way.

615
00:38:31,340 --> 00:38:32,960
Rife is an autumn plum.

616
00:38:33,340 --> 00:38:34,540
That she is.

617
00:38:34,900 --> 00:38:36,040
Hello, lover boy.

618
00:38:38,020 --> 00:38:39,320
Need a little fresh air.

619
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:56,030
Arthur, I wish you'd stop... popping in
and out of places, and I wish you'd stop

620
00:38:56,030 --> 00:38:59,850
mixing business with pleasure. You came
here for a purpose. I was going to talk

621
00:38:59,850 --> 00:39:02,810
to Lydia, but I couldn't find her. She's
sitting over there under the tree.

622
00:39:03,250 --> 00:39:06,870
As you can see, I've arranged with Heidi
Kaya for a parade of motherhood.

623
00:39:08,350 --> 00:39:09,350
Hmm.

624
00:39:09,530 --> 00:39:10,530
Very touching.

625
00:39:11,170 --> 00:39:14,130
I'm sure she's ripe for a few well
-chosen words.

626
00:39:14,530 --> 00:39:15,590
Yes. Yes.

627
00:39:16,310 --> 00:39:17,950
This will make my task much easier.

628
00:39:18,390 --> 00:39:19,390
Good.

629
00:39:32,010 --> 00:39:35,650
Be fruitful and multiply and replenish
here.

630
00:39:39,370 --> 00:39:42,370
Ain't it a joy you're watching them
heeding the good word?

631
00:39:46,030 --> 00:39:48,770
At first it filled me with peace and
contentment.

632
00:39:49,310 --> 00:39:51,650
And then I was overcome with a great
sadness.

633
00:39:52,790 --> 00:39:53,950
In what way, Lydia?

634
00:39:54,170 --> 00:39:59,630
I was looking back over my career and my
life. And I thought, if I should die at

635
00:39:59,630 --> 00:40:01,620
this moment, what... would I leave
behind?

636
00:40:02,220 --> 00:40:06,160
A few volumes of critical acclaim. Quite
a few, as a matter of fact.

637
00:40:07,340 --> 00:40:08,620
But nothing else.

638
00:40:09,140 --> 00:40:11,920
For a time, I'd be remembered for my
artistry.

639
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:13,560
But then what?

640
00:40:13,900 --> 00:40:14,900
That's right.

641
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:19,420
There wouldn't be no one to bear in your
name. No one has stolen down life's

642
00:40:19,420 --> 00:40:20,840
highway who was a partier.

643
00:40:21,240 --> 00:40:23,560
No son or daughter to even write about.

644
00:40:24,220 --> 00:40:28,720
Things like, I remember Mama and life
with Mama.

645
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:31,420
It ain't too late, Lydia.

646
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,940
No, but too soon. Jeff and I decided the
theater was our whole life.

647
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,340
Don't you reckon that sort of selfish of
you?

648
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:45,340
Here you are enjoying all the wonders of
nature, and yet you're depriving

649
00:40:45,340 --> 00:40:47,840
somebody else of the chance to enjoy him
too.

650
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:49,400
You're right, Slim.

651
00:40:49,820 --> 00:40:51,440
So completely right.

652
00:40:52,420 --> 00:40:54,740
Slim, there's something I think you
should know.

653
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,300
Our marriage hasn't been too successful.

654
00:40:57,820 --> 00:41:00,760
We've had trial separations, but nothing
seems to work.

655
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,680
I'm afraid it's headed for the rocks.

656
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,700
Now, don't you think such a thing.

657
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,960
You've just got to make a go of it
for... Oh, for a lot of reasons.

658
00:41:10,700 --> 00:41:14,880
If you don't, you'll be regretting it
all the rest of your life. And I will

659
00:41:14,980 --> 00:41:19,220
Lydia. You've got to do everything to
make your marriage solid and strong.

660
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,100
I must talk this over with Jeff.

661
00:41:22,380 --> 00:41:23,380
I wouldn't.

662
00:41:23,580 --> 00:41:25,340
But after all, he's the...

663
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,200
Look at that you and that lamb out
there.

664
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:30,640
Ain't that a picture for you?

665
00:41:31,580 --> 00:41:33,680
That you's found the meaning of life.

666
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,660
She's found satisfaction and
contentment.

667
00:41:37,660 --> 00:41:41,840
But if she'd talked it over with her
husband first, the only conclusion

668
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,520
arrived at was, well, it wasn't
worthwhile.

669
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:48,380
He'd have said, what's he used to here?

670
00:41:48,900 --> 00:41:52,680
The children will just wind up as a leg
of lamb on somebody's table.

671
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:54,640
So...

672
00:41:55,050 --> 00:41:56,290
They didn't talk it over.

673
00:41:58,030 --> 00:42:00,450
Pretty sensible way to handle it, too.

674
00:42:00,770 --> 00:42:01,770
Oh, Slim.

675
00:42:02,250 --> 00:42:03,970
Bless you. Bless you.

676
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:29,320
Matt.

677
00:42:29,720 --> 00:42:30,720
Hello, darling.

678
00:42:48,660 --> 00:42:52,260
If they break up, Arthur, we're ruined.
We have to help it along.

679
00:42:53,860 --> 00:42:55,500
Perhaps as a starter...

680
00:42:55,980 --> 00:43:01,200
A subtle and delightful scent of flowers
bathed in moonlight would serve our

681
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,620
purpose. Yes.

682
00:43:06,780 --> 00:43:07,380
Being

683
00:43:07,380 --> 00:43:19,600
the

684
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:23,560
only one present capable of feeling
mortal sensations, you'll have to guide

685
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:24,439
bit.

686
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,740
Yes, Arthur, we'll let my flesh be the
thermometer, so to speak.

687
00:43:28,860 --> 00:43:33,100
And now I think a warm and gentle breeze
might be helpful.

688
00:43:43,420 --> 00:43:48,800
I wish I had my hat. I may have
misplaced it somewhere.

689
00:43:49,980 --> 00:43:51,380
Arthur, I didn't say a hurricane.

690
00:43:55,150 --> 00:43:56,150
That better?

691
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,060
Katie Kyle will be so pleased. I'm sure
he will.

692
00:45:22,460 --> 00:45:25,900
We had the same trouble with footsteps
off the ceiling. Went on for months and

693
00:45:25,900 --> 00:45:26,819
months and months.

694
00:45:26,820 --> 00:45:29,460
I've never done a show yet we didn't
have this trouble, but you said it's an

695
00:45:29,460 --> 00:45:32,740
emergency. And I was trying my best, but
all he came for was his hat.

696
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:34,700
The man must be out of his mind.

697
00:45:35,240 --> 00:45:36,800
Well, you'll just have to keep working
on him, Dad.

698
00:45:37,020 --> 00:45:39,300
If we don't get some money, we won't be
able to start until next season.

699
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:40,520
Western Union, sir.

700
00:45:42,780 --> 00:45:43,780
Hello.

701
00:45:44,540 --> 00:45:45,540
Yes, this is Eve.

702
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,240
The message reads...

703
00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:49,980
Hi, you old coyote.

704
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,940
What do you mean, a -sleeping out of the
corral?

705
00:45:56,720 --> 00:46:01,280
Itching to see you and the missus
arriving on the ten o 'clock.

706
00:46:01,500 --> 00:46:03,760
Can you meet me, Tex?

707
00:46:05,020 --> 00:46:06,200
Did you get that?

708
00:46:06,500 --> 00:46:08,260
Yes, yes, I got it. Thank you.

709
00:46:09,140 --> 00:46:11,120
Who do you suppose is on his way down
here?

710
00:46:11,380 --> 00:46:14,060
Tex. I have to meet him. Tex? Hmm.

711
00:46:14,779 --> 00:46:17,720
Tex Henry, the guy that backed the last
show. Oh, muscle man.

712
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:21,420
Now, don't tell me I have to work on
him, too. No, my darling, you just work

713
00:46:21,420 --> 00:46:22,420
Little Slim.

714
00:46:22,540 --> 00:46:24,740
No show ever suffered from having too
much money.

715
00:46:24,940 --> 00:46:27,180
No, but playwrights can suffer from too
many bankers.

716
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:30,680
Oh, good morning.

717
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,200
Good morning. Tell Mike we're starved.
We've been riding since six.

718
00:46:38,860 --> 00:46:40,140
Good morning, creepalong.

719
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:23,780
Something I can do for you, sir.

720
00:47:24,380 --> 00:47:28,060
Miss Peters here.

721
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:30,940
Yes, sir. She's in the bar.

722
00:47:31,220 --> 00:47:32,580
Who shall I say is calling?

723
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:35,060
You don't say nobody's calling, see?

724
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:37,560
I'm a friend of hers, see?

725
00:47:38,500 --> 00:47:39,500
I'll find her.

726
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:40,720
Yes, sir. Wait a minute.

727
00:47:42,100 --> 00:47:43,100
I think of a dollar.

728
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:45,540
I think so, sir.

729
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:48,840
I'll just take the hat.

730
00:47:49,380 --> 00:47:50,380
Keep the rest.

731
00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:52,940
Thank you, sir. May I have that?

732
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:55,260
Just lost a half a buck here.

733
00:47:55,580 --> 00:47:59,540
If you find it, remember, it's mine.

734
00:48:00,180 --> 00:48:01,180
Yes, sir.

735
00:48:05,420 --> 00:48:07,360
That's why this play means so much to
me.

736
00:48:07,660 --> 00:48:09,680
It'll break my heart if it isn't
produced.

737
00:48:10,140 --> 00:48:14,720
Well, I certainly wouldn't do one little
old thing to cause you to be vexed,

738
00:48:14,720 --> 00:48:16,680
sugar. Oh, you're sweet.

739
00:48:17,530 --> 00:48:21,570
I know Jeff's hesitant about asking him.
I don't mean to rush things, but... Get

740
00:48:21,570 --> 00:48:22,570
your coat.

741
00:48:23,750 --> 00:48:24,850
Oh, it's the menace.

742
00:48:25,070 --> 00:48:26,270
What are you doing here?

743
00:48:26,590 --> 00:48:28,990
I came east to settle a text, Beef.

744
00:48:29,650 --> 00:48:31,750
Thought I'd drop by and pick you up,
see?

745
00:48:32,210 --> 00:48:34,050
Get your coat. Who are you?

746
00:48:34,570 --> 00:48:37,650
Don't be scared, Slim. This is strictly
B -movie tough stuff.

747
00:48:41,530 --> 00:48:44,710
Are you coming or do I have to drag you
out of here?

748
00:48:45,110 --> 00:48:46,950
Haven't they sent you a new script yet?

749
00:48:47,340 --> 00:48:48,580
That was from your last picture.

750
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:57,140
I wouldn't try to molest the little
lady, mister, if I was you.

751
00:48:57,940 --> 00:48:59,320
Out of my way, stupid.

752
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,780
When you say that, stranger, smile.

753
00:49:04,340 --> 00:49:08,320
If you want to collect your old age
pension, you better not start nothing,

754
00:49:08,780 --> 00:49:14,580
Now, I ain't looking for trouble,
stranger, but if trouble comes looking

755
00:49:14,740 --> 00:49:16,680
I won't be hard to find.

756
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:18,640
Tough, huh?

757
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,580
When I'm riled.

758
00:49:21,100 --> 00:49:22,100
Yeah?

759
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:23,880
Yeah.

760
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:25,400
Yeah.

761
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:31,860
Look, if you're thinking of getting
tough, this ship ain't no butter knife,

762
00:49:33,380 --> 00:49:38,160
And just remember, stranger, I don't
scare easy.

763
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:44,480
I reckon you'll find it healthy around
here if you put that toad stabber away.

764
00:49:45,580 --> 00:49:47,480
Keep it just in case, see.

765
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:52,840
I got a feeling this place ain't big
enough for both of us.

766
00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:59,320
So you better take your saddlebag and
get, and I wouldn't be a -trying to cut

767
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,700
buttons off my shirt, stranger.

768
00:50:08,340 --> 00:50:11,560
Beautiful, Slim. Gary Cooper couldn't
have done it any better.

769
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:13,500
That's who I learned it from.

770
00:50:15,980 --> 00:50:17,700
I'll get even with you for this, see?

771
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:30,020
Now, if you want to act peaceful like
stranger, you're welcome

772
00:50:30,020 --> 00:50:31,020
around here.

773
00:50:33,100 --> 00:50:38,140
But I'd advise you not to get on me
again, or I'm liable to get really

774
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:50,200
Daphne, Tex is here.

775
00:50:50,540 --> 00:50:53,020
Uh -oh. If he pays a fight with this
guy, he'll get killed.

776
00:50:54,220 --> 00:50:56,100
Well, Tex, it's mighty good to see you.

777
00:50:56,340 --> 00:50:57,360
You're looking like a million.

778
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,040
Lydia will be down in a second, Tex.

779
00:51:03,740 --> 00:51:04,940
Just a minute.

780
00:51:05,940 --> 00:51:08,860
So now you're going around knocking
people down.

781
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:13,840
He pulled a knife on me.

782
00:51:14,940 --> 00:51:16,280
Nobody gets away with that.

783
00:51:16,940 --> 00:51:20,960
You've succumbed to pride, vanity,
appetites of the flesh, and now

784
00:51:22,060 --> 00:51:24,320
Thank heaven you haven't got any money.
You'd be impossible.

785
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:26,280
Don't worry about me.

786
00:51:27,060 --> 00:51:28,480
I can take care of myself.

787
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:30,360
See?

788
00:51:32,220 --> 00:51:33,780
How are you, sweetheart?

789
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:38,220
Miss Shakespeare and the greatest little
actress in the whole world. I've been a

790
00:51:38,220 --> 00:51:39,920
hankering to squeeze you both again.

791
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,400
You're a nasty cat in the house.

792
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:47,860
Ah, it's good to see you, Tex. This is
Tony Clark.

793
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:52,780
Well, howdy. And this is... Hey, you're
in the movie Pictures, ain't you?

794
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,480
Yeah, that's me. Well, doggone.

795
00:51:55,740 --> 00:51:59,100
Now, I never expected to meet a real
live movie actor.

796
00:51:59,920 --> 00:52:05,060
I wonder, now, I know folks pester you a
lot, and I hate to ask you this, Mr.

797
00:52:05,100 --> 00:52:07,400
Clark. Oh, it's no bother. Whatever
happened to Hoot Gibson?

798
00:52:07,720 --> 00:52:09,540
Tex. He was a favorite of mine.

799
00:52:11,730 --> 00:52:14,430
And this is Slim Charles, Tex McCord,
Slim.

800
00:52:14,670 --> 00:52:18,470
Howdy, Tex. Well, and a great big howdy
to you, Slim.

801
00:52:18,710 --> 00:52:22,930
Well, Slim, so you're the critter who
snuck into my corral when I wasn't a

802
00:52:22,930 --> 00:52:25,530
-looking. I reckon you must have roped
the wrong steer, Tex.

803
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:29,000
Don't quite get your meaning. Oh, he's
talking about backing the show, Slim.

804
00:52:29,240 --> 00:52:33,800
Yeah, turn my back and somebody else
puts their brand on my cattle.

805
00:52:35,180 --> 00:52:37,800
Jeff tried desperately to get in touch
with you, Tex.

806
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,640
Yeah, I know. He said he sent me some
wires, but shucks, Lydia, I was in

807
00:52:42,180 --> 00:52:43,180
Oh, wow.

808
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,380
Tex. You mean you'd like to put up the
money for this show, too?

809
00:52:47,620 --> 00:52:51,120
Sure would. Much as they want. You know,
I've been sort of crazy about the

810
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,020
theater ever since I saw Ladies' Night
in a Turkish bath.

811
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:57,980
But I guess there's no use hoping. You
beat me to it.

812
00:52:58,320 --> 00:52:59,720
More power to you, Slim.

813
00:52:59,940 --> 00:53:03,540
Oh, no, no, no. I reckon by back in the
last one, you sort of staked out a

814
00:53:03,540 --> 00:53:08,580
claim. Now, I ain't no claim jumper, so
you go right ahead. It's all yours. No,

815
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:13,520
sir. Now, you see here, Slim, if I don't
work my claim, I deserve to lose it. If

816
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:15,560
I took it, I could never live with
myself, Tex.

817
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,020
I'd feel I'd done it when your back was
turned.

818
00:53:18,240 --> 00:53:19,660
Now, I don't want to hear another word.

819
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:21,920
It's yours and good luck.

820
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:24,140
Now, Jeff, this ain't fair.

821
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,000
Slim, I'll tell you what we'll do.

822
00:53:27,240 --> 00:53:29,260
We'll settle this thing like gentlemen
should.

823
00:53:29,540 --> 00:53:32,800
We'll cut cards for it. But that ain't
necessary, Tex.

824
00:53:33,060 --> 00:53:34,740
I'll give it to you willingly.

825
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:37,920
I ain't gonna take it. It's cut cards or
nothing.

826
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:39,900
High card gets to back the show.

827
00:53:40,300 --> 00:53:42,860
But I don't see we should go to all that
trouble. Oh, that's a splendid idea,

828
00:53:42,980 --> 00:53:44,140
Slim. Splendid.

829
00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:45,700
There you are. Cut.

830
00:53:47,720 --> 00:53:48,720
Okay.

831
00:53:50,260 --> 00:53:52,240
Slim, wait, wait, wait.

832
00:53:52,580 --> 00:53:55,700
I'll tell you what we'll do to make it
more interesting. We'll have a

833
00:53:55,700 --> 00:53:56,700
consolation prize.

834
00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:03,060
High card gets to back the show and pays
the low card $10 ,000. $10 ,000? But I

835
00:54:03,060 --> 00:54:03,678
don't see why.

836
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,280
Why? Oh, a tray.

837
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:08,900
Dog. I must be slipping.

838
00:54:09,180 --> 00:54:12,260
Well, come on, Slim. What have you got?
Come on. Turn it over.

839
00:54:14,020 --> 00:54:15,440
Well, don't go on.

840
00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:17,580
Little old deuce.

841
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:19,600
Looks as if I'm slipping, too.

842
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,780
Oh, I thought it was going to be slim.
Well, Tex, I guess you're backing

843
00:54:23,780 --> 00:54:28,120
show. Yes, sir. And I tell you, I never
was happier paying off a bet in my life.

844
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:31,700
Seven, eight, nine, ten thousand, Slim.
It's all yours.

845
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,320
Now I guess I got a right to make you
out a check.

846
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:37,680
Oh, now don't feel for a minute that you
have to do that, Tex. Oh, no. Now I'll

847
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:41,360
just sign it, Jeff, and you fill it in.
There's no hurry at all. No hurry, Tex.

848
00:54:41,500 --> 00:54:45,200
You'll be around. I'll just call on you
as I need it. No, no. I got to get right

849
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:46,200
back.

850
00:54:46,580 --> 00:54:48,180
They called me last night.

851
00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:51,440
Five new oil wells came in.

852
00:54:52,740 --> 00:54:56,180
Now I got to buy 5 ,000 more head of
cattle for tax purposes.

853
00:54:56,620 --> 00:55:00,180
You know, if this keeps up, I'm just
going to have to take over New Mexico.

854
00:55:13,220 --> 00:55:14,860
Charles, I think if you would... I'm
busy.

855
00:55:15,380 --> 00:55:16,380
Don't bother me.

856
00:55:23,220 --> 00:55:24,960
Now we're really in for trouble.

857
00:55:34,089 --> 00:55:36,230
Here's your half dollar, sir. I found it
under the couch.

858
00:56:02,890 --> 00:56:04,010
That's what I've been trying to tell
you.

859
00:56:04,250 --> 00:56:07,710
Why should mugs like me take the rat? I
tell you, this guy cuts cards for ten

860
00:56:07,710 --> 00:56:12,930
cheese. Mr. Clark, we are discussing
your tax return, no one else's. But this

861
00:56:12,930 --> 00:56:15,030
character, I tell you... We are looking
into Mr. Charles.

862
00:56:15,270 --> 00:56:18,170
And as a citizen, we thank you for
bringing him to our attention.

863
00:56:19,490 --> 00:56:22,070
Now let us confine ourselves to your
return.

864
00:56:23,750 --> 00:56:24,850
Okay, get going.

865
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:29,320
The first point I wish to clarify for
you is that just because you play

866
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:33,080
on the screen doesn't permit you to take
your losses at the racetrack as

867
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:34,800
business deductions. Why not?

868
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:38,080
It happens to be the law.

869
00:56:38,540 --> 00:56:39,640
Well, it stinks, see?

870
00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:44,420
How can I get the law changed?

871
00:56:46,580 --> 00:56:48,800
Congress makes the tax laws, Mr. Clark.

872
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:53,480
Perhaps if you got 60 or 70 jockeys
elected to Congress, they might see

873
00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:54,540
your way and make some revision.

874
00:56:54,990 --> 00:56:56,870
But I'm... I just talked to Washington.

875
00:56:57,110 --> 00:57:00,890
There's no record of any Charles Charles
from Montana ever filing a tax return.

876
00:57:01,230 --> 00:57:04,110
See that? I had him beg for a chiseler
right from the start.

877
00:57:04,350 --> 00:57:05,850
He's got a ranch bigger than Manhattan.

878
00:57:06,170 --> 00:57:08,430
I'll lay a six to five. He's a fence for
hot sheep.

879
00:57:09,230 --> 00:57:10,310
Want me to turn it over to Ed?

880
00:57:10,590 --> 00:57:13,750
No, I'll handle it. I want to follow him
first and watch his spending habits.

881
00:57:14,170 --> 00:57:15,170
You'll see plenty.

882
00:57:15,450 --> 00:57:18,270
I've been running around with my dame
for a month now. I've been tailing him.

883
00:57:18,540 --> 00:57:20,520
He passes out C -notes like there was
dimes.

884
00:57:20,820 --> 00:57:23,380
And when you get a load of where he
lives, he's got a penthouse.

885
00:57:23,620 --> 00:57:25,200
Six of the biggest rooms you ever saw.

886
00:58:39,319 --> 00:58:41,060
May I take the table, sir?

887
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,040
Oh, you'll find some bills on the table
there. Just help yourself.

888
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:51,280
Thank you, sir.

889
00:58:52,860 --> 00:58:53,839
Ten dollars?

890
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:54,840
Yep.

891
00:58:54,900 --> 00:58:56,000
Thank you, sir.

892
00:59:09,710 --> 00:59:12,450
Arthur. In the name of heaven, now what
are you doing?

893
00:59:12,870 --> 00:59:15,750
The other night, Daphne and I dropped by
a club where they had a sitting

894
00:59:15,750 --> 00:59:19,290
harpist. I learned more tricks from him.
Get a load of this.

895
00:59:25,110 --> 00:59:27,090
Can't wait to get back and show that to
the boys.

896
00:59:27,790 --> 00:59:29,610
That's nothing but musical profanity.

897
00:59:29,850 --> 00:59:31,470
It's immoral. Now stop it.

898
00:59:32,490 --> 00:59:33,950
Arthur, don't be such a square.

899
00:59:34,570 --> 00:59:35,950
It's just that you're not hip.

900
00:59:36,670 --> 00:59:38,730
Perhaps not. But there's one thing I am.

901
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,020
And that's mighty disgusting with you.

902
00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:45,040
Ever since you came by that money,
you've been selfish, arrogant,

903
00:59:45,540 --> 00:59:48,980
You've been doing nothing but going
about to nightclubs with that Jezebel.

904
00:59:49,340 --> 00:59:51,220
My dear Arthur, I've got to spend the
money.

905
00:59:51,940 --> 00:59:54,900
After all, you can't take it with you.
Might as well have a little fun. You

906
00:59:54,900 --> 00:59:55,900
live once.

907
00:59:56,380 --> 00:59:57,540
Don't that send you?

908
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:00,280
Wow!

909
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:02,260
And what about that poor child?

910
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:04,020
You've forgotten all about her.

911
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,900
Ever since you left the farm a month
ago, you've just ignored her plight.

912
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:10,940
I've been waiting for the proper moment,
which is now.

913
01:00:12,100 --> 01:00:15,500
Jeff and Lydia are celebrating their
eighth anniversary, and tonight I'm

914
01:00:15,500 --> 01:00:19,920
them a simply lavish dinner party.
There'll be magnums of champagne and

915
01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:22,640
They'll go home warm in the feeling of
romance.

916
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:27,540
There'll be memories of other
anniversaries. I have a better idea.

917
01:00:27,860 --> 01:00:33,560
Arthur, I'm not interested in your
ideas. I shall do this my way.

918
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:36,360
Very well.

919
01:00:36,380 --> 01:00:37,440
Do it your way.

920
01:00:38,190 --> 01:00:40,510
From now on, I will not even offer
advice.

921
01:00:41,030 --> 01:00:47,690
I'll just sit silently by and watch you
get in deeper and deeper and

922
01:00:47,690 --> 01:00:49,290
deeper. Good.

923
01:00:51,110 --> 01:00:52,110
Hello?

924
01:00:52,690 --> 01:00:55,570
Oh, hiya, honeybunch.

925
01:00:56,570 --> 01:00:58,090
Excuse me just a minute, please.

926
01:00:58,330 --> 01:01:00,370
Was there anything else, Arthur?
Nothing.

927
01:01:00,770 --> 01:01:01,770
Goodbye.

928
01:01:04,610 --> 01:01:05,610
Sorry, darling.

929
01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:11,320
There's somebody here impressed with
him, but he's disappeared now, so I can

930
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:12,320
speak freely.

931
01:01:14,620 --> 01:01:15,620
Yep.

932
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:23,120
Taxi, Mr. Charles? No, I've got a few
minutes to spare. I reckon I'll walk.

933
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:24,400
thanks for thinking about it.

934
01:01:25,100 --> 01:01:26,100
There you are, partner.

935
01:01:26,260 --> 01:01:27,260
Ten dollars?

936
01:01:28,180 --> 01:01:29,600
Don't go on. I thought it was a twenty.

937
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:31,160
Pardon my error.

938
01:01:46,350 --> 01:01:49,350
Fine angel you are. I thought you were
going to help me. I have other things to

939
01:01:49,350 --> 01:01:51,510
attend to first. Now run along and don't
bother me.

940
01:01:55,770 --> 01:01:57,270
He was so nice before.

941
01:01:57,950 --> 01:02:01,250
What's happened to him? Same thing that
happens to a lot of people, just living.

942
01:02:01,630 --> 01:02:02,630
Hi.

943
01:02:03,390 --> 01:02:04,390
Oh.

944
01:02:06,310 --> 01:02:07,310
Any luck?

945
01:02:07,890 --> 01:02:08,890
Me neither.

946
01:02:10,190 --> 01:02:12,390
Remember the story I told you he was
writing?

947
01:02:12,790 --> 01:02:13,790
Nobody bought it.

948
01:02:14,190 --> 01:02:17,250
He's down in the dumps. Is that your
prospective father?

949
01:02:18,250 --> 01:02:20,210
He's waiting for my prospective mother.

950
01:02:20,570 --> 01:02:23,650
She's going to feel terrible when he
tells her they turned it down.

951
01:02:24,390 --> 01:02:28,950
Isn't there some way you can at least
help him? They like his writing. It's

952
01:02:28,950 --> 01:02:31,750
that they don't care for his ideas. Wait
a minute.

953
01:02:32,130 --> 01:02:36,150
A long, long time ago, I was on an
assignment that was highly amusing and

954
01:02:36,150 --> 01:02:39,150
dramatic. I always felt it would make an
excellent novel.

955
01:02:39,930 --> 01:02:41,670
I wonder if I could get it through to
him.

956
01:02:42,230 --> 01:02:43,230
Sometimes.

957
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:47,080
When the person's receptive and we
concentrate real hard... Oh, try it!

958
01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:24,440
Got a little trinket, honey buns.

959
01:03:24,700 --> 01:03:27,740
You know I love it. Cigarette? You're
the little lady who can show it off.

960
01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:28,920
Cigar?

961
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,880
Missy. Yes, Mr. Charles? Where are the
ones with the gold tips?

962
01:03:32,300 --> 01:03:34,460
Oh, that's right. Thank you very much.

963
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:36,280
There

964
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:43,940
you

965
01:03:43,940 --> 01:03:45,680
are. Keep the change, sweet stuff.

966
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,560
Oh, thank you, Mr. Charles. Not at all,
not at all.

967
01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:53,220
She'll take that straight home to her
mother. Very generous child.

968
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:54,440
Very generous.

969
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:16,700
John. What?

970
01:04:25,060 --> 01:04:26,060
Good night.

971
01:05:22,180 --> 01:05:25,300
Darling. Say, you know, dear, I just got
a thought on this back wall.

972
01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:28,320
Maybe the door's in the wrong place.

973
01:05:30,180 --> 01:05:33,380
I think if we moved it over just a
little, it'd be much better for the

974
01:05:33,380 --> 01:05:34,380
the third act.

975
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:38,140
Oh, now, Lydia, wait a minute.

976
01:05:39,140 --> 01:05:42,260
Look, darling, I've got to okay the
blueprints on this in the morning,

977
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:48,180
Darling, this is the eighth anniversary
of our marriage.

978
01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:50,720
Not of your entrance into the theater.

979
01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:54,840
And you don't celebrate it by fondling
toy furniture.

980
01:05:57,260 --> 01:05:58,320
Oh, Jeff.

981
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,520
Let's postpone the show until spring.

982
01:06:02,340 --> 01:06:03,460
Let's take a trip.

983
01:06:03,820 --> 01:06:05,120
Just the two of us.

984
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:08,640
Darling, look, we've been over this
time. Darling, we need a refresher

985
01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:09,820
the fundamentals of living.

986
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:13,020
I realized that tonight watching Slim.

987
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:17,380
When we first met him, he was shy and
genuine.

988
01:06:18,190 --> 01:06:19,310
Now look at him.

989
01:06:19,850 --> 01:06:21,370
Smug, self -centered.

990
01:06:22,330 --> 01:06:23,770
We've changed him, Jeff.

991
01:06:24,030 --> 01:06:26,730
And it's a pretty sad commentary on us.

992
01:06:28,190 --> 01:06:29,190
Yes, dear.

993
01:06:30,710 --> 01:06:35,870
Something strange and rather wonderful
has enveloped me these past few days.

994
01:06:37,170 --> 01:06:40,130
I've lost that fanatical interest in the
theater.

995
01:06:41,310 --> 01:06:43,850
All I want is just the two of us.

996
01:06:44,390 --> 01:06:47,170
A home and a family.

997
01:06:56,100 --> 01:06:59,200
Somehow, I have no enthusiasm for this
play now.

998
01:07:00,380 --> 01:07:03,340
Well, now, don't you worry, dear. After
four weeks' rehearsal, you'll be just as

999
01:07:03,340 --> 01:07:04,660
excited about it as I am.

1000
01:07:05,340 --> 01:07:06,700
I doubt it.

1001
01:07:07,300 --> 01:07:12,960
And if I have no enthusiasm, it'll
stink, dear.

1002
01:07:17,060 --> 01:07:19,520
After all, I'm the whole show.

1003
01:07:21,980 --> 01:07:24,120
Well, darling, I grant your importance.

1004
01:07:25,420 --> 01:07:27,660
But there are a few other elements to
consider.

1005
01:07:28,340 --> 01:07:32,760
The other actors, the writing, and I,
for instance, plan an entirely new kind

1006
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,220
staging with this. I'm sure it'll be
just fine.

1007
01:07:36,140 --> 01:07:40,900
But after all, dear, people don't come
all the way in from Connecticut just to

1008
01:07:40,900 --> 01:07:42,080
see a new kind of staging.

1009
01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:48,980
That stuff sparkles, honey buns, but not
like your eyes, no sir. Monsieur

1010
01:07:48,980 --> 01:07:53,860
Charles, devinez, père et fils, trente
-trois.

1011
01:07:54,590 --> 01:07:55,710
Mercy, Garkon, mercy.

1012
01:07:56,730 --> 01:07:59,910
Yep, I reckon as hell that's Bond. Trace
Bond.

1013
01:08:00,650 --> 01:08:01,650
Iced it up.

1014
01:08:01,730 --> 01:08:02,709
Bien, monsieur.

1015
01:08:02,710 --> 01:08:06,090
Miss Peters has a long -distance call
for you from Los Angeles. Oh, thanks.

1016
01:08:06,430 --> 01:08:07,830
Don't bother. I'll be right back.

1017
01:08:09,410 --> 01:08:10,770
Don't be long, honeybunch.

1018
01:08:15,110 --> 01:08:20,710
That show is dead.

1019
01:08:21,029 --> 01:08:22,029
Garkon.

1020
01:08:22,359 --> 01:08:28,939
Bury that, will you? Yes. And I'll tell
you what... Say, partner, you look

1021
01:08:28,939 --> 01:08:31,319
as lonely as a sheepherder on Christmas
Eve.

1022
01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:33,720
Somebody turn you down?

1023
01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:36,060
No, just didn't show up.

1024
01:08:37,420 --> 01:08:40,939
Well, I reckon that's how we got enough
champagne for a maverick like you.

1025
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:42,680
Care to join me?

1026
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:44,000
Well, thanks.

1027
01:08:44,140 --> 01:08:45,200
A garkin.

1028
01:08:45,580 --> 01:08:46,859
A glass, gentlemen.

1029
01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:47,959
Yes, sir.

1030
01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:50,520
My name's Arthur Crane. Howdy, partner.

1031
01:08:51,350 --> 01:08:52,350
I'm Slim Charles.

1032
01:08:52,850 --> 01:08:53,850
Arrest yourself.

1033
01:08:54,910 --> 01:08:57,210
That's quite a dinner you gave tonight.

1034
01:08:59,750 --> 01:09:01,090
Nothing's too good for friends.

1035
01:09:01,450 --> 01:09:03,170
I suppose it was business.

1036
01:09:04,350 --> 01:09:06,330
In a way, that's what I figured.

1037
01:09:06,569 --> 01:09:09,950
Nobody could give a blowout like this
nowadays unless it was deductible.

1038
01:09:11,630 --> 01:09:15,630
Unless you could take it off your income
tax as a business deduction.

1039
01:09:17,529 --> 01:09:18,529
Income tax?

1040
01:09:18,850 --> 01:09:19,850
What's that?

1041
01:09:21,870 --> 01:09:25,970
It's a little scheme the government's
figured out. It's been working quite

1042
01:09:32,330 --> 01:09:35,609
You mean people have to pay a tax on
what they earn?

1043
01:09:35,950 --> 01:09:36,950
That's the idea.

1044
01:09:37,390 --> 01:09:40,170
Well, my calculator's how that ain't
fair.

1045
01:09:41,149 --> 01:09:43,689
Do you mean you've never paid a tax?

1046
01:09:44,490 --> 01:09:45,490
Never.

1047
01:09:46,189 --> 01:09:47,670
That's what the record shows.

1048
01:09:48,870 --> 01:09:49,890
I, uh...

1049
01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:52,100
I'm from the Department of Internal
Revenue.

1050
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:54,760
Say,

1051
01:09:55,860 --> 01:09:57,500
that's a bright and nice picture, you
partner.

1052
01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:00,500
Yes, I like it.

1053
01:10:01,580 --> 01:10:06,460
You see, I've been tailing you all day,
watching your spending habits.

1054
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:10,060
You live quite lavishly, don't you? You
betcha.

1055
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:14,260
This last month's been a powerful lot of
fun.

1056
01:10:14,900 --> 01:10:18,280
Tell me, why haven't you ever filed an
income tax return?

1057
01:10:19,709 --> 01:10:21,130
Nobody ever asked me to.

1058
01:10:23,770 --> 01:10:28,070
Well, you see, the taxpayers of America
is not an honorary society.

1059
01:10:28,530 --> 01:10:30,570
We don't send out invitations.

1060
01:10:31,030 --> 01:10:32,030
It's the law.

1061
01:10:32,110 --> 01:10:33,110
You just pay.

1062
01:10:34,530 --> 01:10:35,530
I don't.

1063
01:10:36,010 --> 01:10:39,710
That's it. Keep it up. Get yourself in
real trouble.

1064
01:10:40,130 --> 01:10:42,050
Be quiet, Arthur. I didn't ask your
opinion.

1065
01:10:42,390 --> 01:10:43,390
I didn't give any.

1066
01:10:43,990 --> 01:10:45,190
Oh, doggone.

1067
01:10:45,870 --> 01:10:48,410
That's right, ain't it? Your name's
Arthur, too.

1068
01:10:48,940 --> 01:10:50,680
I was talking to the other one there.

1069
01:10:56,300 --> 01:10:57,300
Oh.

1070
01:10:59,260 --> 01:11:00,260
Yeah.

1071
01:11:00,700 --> 01:11:04,240
Well, just drop down to the office
tomorrow.

1072
01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:06,400
Here's the address.

1073
01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:13,600
My boss would like to talk to you. Oh,
I'm mighty sorry about it, but I won't

1074
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:14,600
here tomorrow.

1075
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:16,140
I've got to get back tonight.

1076
01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:18,760
I'd stay over if I...

1077
01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:23,080
Well, you see, I... Well,

1078
01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:30,260
I might as well tell you, but don't
mention it because people just think

1079
01:11:30,260 --> 01:11:31,260
crazy.

1080
01:11:31,640 --> 01:11:35,160
You see, I'm not really a westerner.

1081
01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:37,980
That law was just for effect.

1082
01:11:40,020 --> 01:11:42,200
Matter of fact, I'm not even a human
being.

1083
01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:49,080
I'm an angel.

1084
01:11:51,570 --> 01:11:54,850
So is Arthur there.

1085
01:11:59,930 --> 01:12:00,930
Oh.

1086
01:12:01,870 --> 01:12:03,590
Really? Yes.

1087
01:12:04,330 --> 01:12:10,450
I just came down to settle a little
matter, but looks like it's over now, so

1088
01:12:10,450 --> 01:12:15,670
very shortly I'm going to dematerialize
and go back to heaven.

1089
01:12:17,580 --> 01:12:19,340
They haven't got any income tax.

1090
01:12:21,140 --> 01:12:23,560
That's why they call it heaven.

1091
01:12:26,220 --> 01:12:31,240
Yes, well, have a good trip.

1092
01:12:31,780 --> 01:12:32,880
Thanks very much, partner.

1093
01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:34,800
Thank you.

1094
01:12:38,460 --> 01:12:43,600
Now, if you're ready to take advice, my
advice to you is get out of here as fast

1095
01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:44,600
as ever you can.

1096
01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:46,080
Nonsense, Arthur.

1097
01:12:47,290 --> 01:12:49,030
There's still some more champagne.

1098
01:12:54,030 --> 01:12:57,730
Oh, he's probably a little stewed. I
tell you, he thinks he's an angel.

1099
01:12:58,330 --> 01:13:01,010
Look, that's another angel he thinks
he's talking to.

1100
01:13:01,230 --> 01:13:02,230
Date of birth?

1101
01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:18,380
I wasn't born, I was created.

1102
01:13:18,620 --> 01:13:19,860
The second day of the world.

1103
01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:22,260
Any sisters or brothers?

1104
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:23,478
Oh, yes.

1105
01:13:23,480 --> 01:13:24,480
Millions of both.

1106
01:13:25,300 --> 01:13:28,820
Well, I think that gives us the
necessary data.

1107
01:13:29,620 --> 01:13:32,580
Now, tell me more about yourself, Mr.
Charles. But why, Doctor?

1108
01:13:33,140 --> 01:13:37,160
You will write it all down. Other
doctors will study it and then describe

1109
01:13:37,160 --> 01:13:38,960
complex scientific terms.

1110
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:42,660
They'll come to see me and I shall be
gone. It'll be most embarrassing for

1111
01:13:42,660 --> 01:13:43,660
Oh, you're planning on leaving?

1112
01:13:43,900 --> 01:13:45,880
Yes, I don't want to take up any more of
your time.

1113
01:13:46,470 --> 01:13:48,290
There are others, I'm sure, who need
your guidance.

1114
01:13:48,570 --> 01:13:52,850
And now I must be going. But the door is
locked, Mr. Charles. How do you propose

1115
01:13:52,850 --> 01:13:53,850
to leave?

1116
01:13:54,810 --> 01:13:57,110
At nightfall, how does the sunlight
leave this room?

1117
01:13:57,770 --> 01:14:02,810
I raise my hands, and in a trice, I am
gone.

1118
01:14:04,770 --> 01:14:05,770
Goodbye, gentlemen.

1119
01:14:05,870 --> 01:14:09,810
You have been very kind, with the slight
exception of depriving me of my

1120
01:14:09,810 --> 01:14:12,630
suspenders and tie. I'm sorry, Mr.
Charles. Hospital rules.

1121
01:14:12,990 --> 01:14:13,769
No matter.

1122
01:14:13,770 --> 01:14:15,490
It would only make vanishing a little
clumsy.

1123
01:14:16,190 --> 01:14:18,150
Goodbye. Goodbye.

1124
01:14:18,550 --> 01:14:19,550
Bye.

1125
01:14:20,330 --> 01:14:21,330
Now.

1126
01:14:30,650 --> 01:14:31,650
Stand.

1127
01:14:36,350 --> 01:14:37,070
Why

1128
01:14:37,070 --> 01:14:44,070
don't you

1129
01:14:44,070 --> 01:14:45,210
lie down, Mr. Charles?

1130
01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:48,480
I'm sure after you've had a nice rest,
you'll find it much easier.

1131
01:14:57,540 --> 01:14:59,660
He appears to be in an acute delusional
state.

1132
01:14:59,960 --> 01:15:03,520
Imagine we find alcohol has quite a bit
to do with it. And yet his gait is far

1133
01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:04,660
from a toxic. He's coherent.

1134
01:15:04,940 --> 01:15:08,380
No evidence of dysarthria. Study him
from the observation room. If you

1135
01:15:08,380 --> 01:15:10,000
anything further, call me. Yes, Doctor.

1136
01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:44,200
Well, just don't stand there grinning
like an ape.

1137
01:15:44,620 --> 01:15:45,620
Say something.

1138
01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:46,720
What is there to say?

1139
01:15:46,980 --> 01:15:50,660
With the possible exception of it serves
you right. Why can't I vanish? What's

1140
01:15:50,660 --> 01:15:54,720
happened? What's the matter? You violate
every rule of angelic behavior and you

1141
01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:56,040
ask, what's the matter?

1142
01:15:56,380 --> 01:15:59,760
You got yourself into this? Haiti cars,
when you're saying, get yourself out.

1143
01:16:19,790 --> 01:16:22,890
You mean... I failed a mat too.

1144
01:16:23,150 --> 01:16:25,870
Hurry, you've got to talk to them before
it's too late.

1145
01:16:26,250 --> 01:16:29,690
It's already too late. And I have
already talked too much.

1146
01:16:31,130 --> 01:16:33,870
Coming here was such a simple and
delightful luck.

1147
01:16:34,670 --> 01:16:37,210
Leaving here, unfortunately, is not so
easy.

1148
01:16:37,590 --> 01:16:39,430
But why don't you just vanish?

1149
01:16:39,810 --> 01:16:40,810
I've tried it.

1150
01:16:41,210 --> 01:16:43,770
The only thing that happens is that my
trousers fall.

1151
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:55,800
To heaven ever?

1152
01:16:56,420 --> 01:16:58,740
That apparently is my miserable fate.

1153
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:00,360
Well, goodbye, Charles.

1154
01:17:00,780 --> 01:17:05,540
A fine angel you are. You can't leave
him like this. We've got to help him.

1155
01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:12,060
If I went back, do you think they'd let
you be an angel again?

1156
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:16,520
As much as you want to be born, you'd do
that for me.

1157
01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:19,440
If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be
here.

1158
01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:21,100
You wanted to help.

1159
01:17:21,460 --> 01:17:24,060
It didn't work out, but you wanted to
help.

1160
01:17:24,440 --> 01:17:25,860
That's the important thing.

1161
01:17:26,660 --> 01:17:28,100
You're very unselfish.

1162
01:17:28,900 --> 01:17:30,420
It's a pity it didn't work out.

1163
01:17:31,980 --> 01:17:34,000
You would have made a great human being.

1164
01:17:35,340 --> 01:17:40,660
Oh, Mr. Arthur, we've got to help him.
We've got to find some... I have an

1165
01:17:41,340 --> 01:17:42,780
What's your boss's name?

1166
01:17:43,240 --> 01:17:44,240
Hedekiah.

1167
01:17:47,540 --> 01:17:48,720
You know my child.

1168
01:17:49,060 --> 01:17:51,820
Don't waste your prayers on me. I don't
deserve them.

1169
01:17:53,390 --> 01:17:54,450
Save them for yourself.

1170
01:17:55,670 --> 01:17:58,290
It always works better if they're for
somebody else.

1171
01:18:46,990 --> 01:18:48,050
We can stay longer.

1172
01:18:49,010 --> 01:18:50,210
I won't be a minute.

1173
01:18:51,110 --> 01:18:54,130
I just want to look at them once more
before I go.

1174
01:18:56,090 --> 01:18:59,230
Don't pack too much, dear. I'll be
leaving for Europe the end of the week.

1175
01:18:59,230 --> 01:19:00,230
can move back in then.

1176
01:19:00,490 --> 01:19:03,270
Oh, thanks, but these are things I'll
need at the office for a production

1177
01:19:03,270 --> 01:19:06,830
conference. If you should forget
anything, just call and I'll be glad to

1178
01:19:06,830 --> 01:19:10,790
over. Thanks loads. And if I can be of
any help with passports, visas, or

1179
01:19:10,790 --> 01:19:12,970
traveler's checks, please don't hesitate
to let me know.

1180
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:17,400
That's very considerate of you. Well,
just because we've decided to go our

1181
01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:20,360
separate ways, there's no reason why we
can't do it as civilized people should.

1182
01:19:20,420 --> 01:19:23,080
You're perfectly right, dear. It would
be most childish to end it with

1183
01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:26,200
bitterness and slamming doors. After
all, we've had eight wonderful years

1184
01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:29,280
together. And there's no reason why we
shouldn't remember that rather than an

1185
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:31,520
eight -minute quarrel. You're absolutely
right, dear.

1186
01:19:32,380 --> 01:19:35,820
Oh, if they only knew it. There's still
so much in love.

1187
01:19:47,020 --> 01:19:48,980
I'm on my way back.

1188
01:19:49,680 --> 01:19:51,160
Oh, gee, no.

1189
01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:54,120
They're busting up. I've got to go.

1190
01:19:54,820 --> 01:20:00,940
And yet I hate to, no more than ever,
because now I can almost feel this

1191
01:20:00,940 --> 01:20:02,060
and smell those flowers.

1192
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:05,000
Goodbye, Mother.

1193
01:20:05,180 --> 01:20:06,180
Goodbye, Daddy.

1194
01:20:07,060 --> 01:20:08,860
I'm sorry you never knew me.

1195
01:20:09,060 --> 01:20:11,000
I think you might have liked me.

1196
01:20:12,180 --> 01:20:13,180
Come, dear.

1197
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:15,140
I think we'd better go now.

1198
01:20:15,610 --> 01:20:17,310
Just another minute, please.

1199
01:20:19,490 --> 01:20:22,690
Although we don't see eye to eye on this
play, I do wish you luck with it.

1200
01:20:23,190 --> 01:20:24,190
Here's to it.

1201
01:20:24,210 --> 01:20:27,650
Oh, where's my drink? Oh, there it is.
Excuse me.

1202
01:20:29,510 --> 01:20:31,310
And here's to you, my dear.

1203
01:20:31,850 --> 01:20:35,030
May the future bring you everything you
hoped the past would.

1204
01:20:35,250 --> 01:20:36,250
Thank you.

1205
01:20:36,350 --> 01:20:37,910
May I have some of those peanuts,
please?

1206
01:20:38,910 --> 01:20:39,910
Oh, certainly.

1207
01:20:41,150 --> 01:20:42,150
That's strange.

1208
01:20:42,310 --> 01:20:44,130
I never thought you could tolerate these
things.

1209
01:20:44,470 --> 01:20:48,950
Never could. But for some strange
reason, I just had a sudden craving for

1210
01:20:48,990 --> 01:20:49,990
Thanks.

1211
01:20:50,930 --> 01:20:51,909
Not at all.

1212
01:20:51,910 --> 01:20:54,990
Do you plan to go to England first?

1213
01:20:55,230 --> 01:20:58,090
I think so. I'm afraid the continent
would be awfully crowded in July.

1214
01:20:58,430 --> 01:21:02,070
Yes, I'm afraid so. Oh, incidentally,
when you do get to Rome, don't forget to

1215
01:21:02,070 --> 01:21:03,210
look up Martin and Arlene.

1216
01:21:03,670 --> 01:21:06,050
He's doing another one of those Venetian
-type movies.

1217
01:21:06,370 --> 01:21:07,370
Is Arlene going to be in it?

1218
01:21:07,510 --> 01:21:09,770
No, no. It's a documentary. No actors at
all.

1219
01:21:10,170 --> 01:21:13,190
Just one shot after another of gondolas
and peep.

1220
01:21:16,340 --> 01:21:17,380
Darling. Hmm?

1221
01:21:20,060 --> 01:21:21,500
Darling, that sudden craving.

1222
01:21:23,120 --> 01:21:26,720
You don't suppose... You don't
suppose... I hadn't thought about it.

1223
01:21:27,420 --> 01:21:31,000
But I have been feeling terribly
maternal this past week. It's quite

1224
01:21:31,100 --> 01:21:31,579
you know.

1225
01:21:31,580 --> 01:21:35,040
Yes, but darling, you... I know I didn't
discuss it with you, but I came to the

1226
01:21:35,040 --> 01:21:37,320
conclusion that we'd given enough
affection to the theater.

1227
01:21:37,740 --> 01:21:39,220
Oh. I knew it! I knew it!

1228
01:21:43,050 --> 01:21:47,690
Now, now, you can't be sure yet. Now,
darling, you can't be sure yet. I have

1229
01:21:47,690 --> 01:21:50,790
go to the doctor and have the rabbit
test. You will not.

1230
01:21:51,310 --> 01:21:53,690
Now, you're just going to lie right here
and take it easy.

1231
01:21:54,190 --> 01:21:58,730
I'll have the doctor bring the rabbit
here. Oh, Jeff. Lydia, Lydia, keep your

1232
01:21:58,730 --> 01:21:59,730
legs up.

1233
01:22:00,090 --> 01:22:01,590
Oh, darling, I don't think you should.

1234
01:22:02,310 --> 01:22:04,210
You just lie here and relax, relax.

1235
01:22:25,070 --> 01:22:26,070
That's strange.

1236
01:22:26,170 --> 01:22:27,830
I thought I heard a child's voice.

1237
01:22:28,350 --> 01:22:29,590
That's funny. So did I.

1238
01:22:30,650 --> 01:22:33,110
Oh, but the really strange thing is me.

1239
01:22:34,190 --> 01:22:36,190
I never thought I'd feel this way.

1240
01:22:36,830 --> 01:22:38,370
It's such a wonderful feeling.

1241
01:22:39,370 --> 01:22:41,050
Suddenly nothing else matters.

1242
01:22:41,290 --> 01:22:45,050
That's just what Slim said would happen.
He said that... Oh, that reminds me. I

1243
01:22:45,050 --> 01:22:49,330
didn't want to tell you, but Daphne
called before and said that while she

1244
01:22:49,330 --> 01:22:51,950
answered a telephone, they hauled Slim
off to Bellevue.

1245
01:22:52,390 --> 01:22:54,270
He'd been telling everybody he was an
angel.

1246
01:22:54,810 --> 01:22:57,630
And then when she went to the hospital
to see him later, the doctor said that

1247
01:22:57,630 --> 01:22:59,970
had just suddenly somehow vanished.

1248
01:23:00,570 --> 01:23:01,610
Oh, Jeff.

1249
01:23:02,190 --> 01:23:03,490
Isn't that the silliest thing?

1250
01:23:09,350 --> 01:23:10,350
Jeff.

1251
01:23:10,850 --> 01:23:14,750
Remember that day we met him at the
racetrack? That sudden gust of wind? Oh,

1252
01:23:14,750 --> 01:23:16,350
now, wait a minute, darling.

1253
01:23:16,750 --> 01:23:18,750
That could have been caused by any
number.

1254
01:23:39,580 --> 01:23:41,880
That's it. You're going to feel much
better now.

1255
01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:43,860
Chuck, come over here and sit down.

1256
01:24:09,900 --> 01:24:10,900
Pardon me.

1257
01:24:11,660 --> 01:24:14,060
I'm sorry, but aren't you Jeff Bolton?

1258
01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:15,760
Yes, that's right.

1259
01:24:15,980 --> 01:24:18,160
I'm Roger Blake. I, uh... How do you do
it?

1260
01:24:19,420 --> 01:24:20,420
Roger Blake.

1261
01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:22,320
The angel watches.

1262
01:24:22,760 --> 01:24:23,800
That's right. How are you?

1263
01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:26,680
I thought I recognized you from the
picture on the dust jacket.

1264
01:24:27,060 --> 01:24:30,060
Well, I just finished reading it last
night. It's a great job. Thank you.

1265
01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:33,680
Incidentally, have you thought of
dramatizing it? Well, as a matter of

1266
01:24:33,680 --> 01:24:37,420
had with your wife and mine. I'd say
that was my idea, too. I was going to

1267
01:24:37,420 --> 01:24:38,720
your agent today, but, uh...

1268
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:42,280
Well, but you're going to do the Daphne
Peters play, aren't you? Well, as soon

1269
01:24:42,280 --> 01:24:44,880
as Liddy's ready and able, but we could
be doing a lot of work in the meantime

1270
01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:45,940
and then follow with yours.

1271
01:24:46,380 --> 01:24:49,980
Follow with mine? Yes, why not? Well,
how lucky can a guy get?

1272
01:24:50,620 --> 01:24:55,240
Selling my first play and having my
first baby all the same day. Well, I'm

1273
01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:56,240
pacing, too.

1274
01:24:57,080 --> 01:24:58,080
Cigarette? Oh, thanks.

1275
01:25:32,080 --> 01:25:33,080
Glad to see you.

1276
01:25:33,980 --> 01:25:35,120
What are you doing here?

1277
01:25:35,380 --> 01:25:37,720
I've been appointed guardian angel for
little Jo.

1278
01:25:38,420 --> 01:25:41,020
Well, I've been appointed her guardian
angel.

1279
01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:43,760
Oh. Well, we'll be seeing a lot of each
other then.

1280
01:25:44,140 --> 01:25:46,720
Jeff and Lydia are going to do a play
based on his book.

1281
01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:50,380
Of course, if it's successful, I should
receive a royalty.

1282
01:25:50,940 --> 01:25:52,440
After all, it was my idea.

1283
01:25:52,900 --> 01:25:53,900
Where are the children?

1284
01:25:54,100 --> 01:25:56,180
They're waiting outside the delivery
room.

1285
01:25:59,920 --> 01:26:01,140
I hope nothing goes wrong.

1286
01:26:01,380 --> 01:26:03,360
They say this is hard on the fathers.

1287
01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:05,420
I think it's worse on the kids.

1288
01:26:07,820 --> 01:26:12,720
I... I don't suppose we'll remember any
of this. I hope we get to see each other

1289
01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:14,220
sometimes. Because I...

1290
01:26:34,060 --> 01:26:36,100
Well, Charles, they finally made it.

1291
01:26:36,400 --> 01:26:40,160
And who knows, Arthur, 20 years from
now, we may be walking down a church

1292
01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:41,160
together.

1293
01:26:41,440 --> 01:26:42,880
With all their nice kids.

1294
01:26:47,980 --> 01:26:50,960
My child seems to have a lustier cry
than yours.

1295
01:26:51,680 --> 01:26:52,680
Oh, I don't know.

1296
01:26:52,820 --> 01:26:54,500
It's just that I haven't taken over yet.

1297
01:26:55,340 --> 01:26:56,820
We'll see about that right now.
