couldn't be done.

00:08:07,420 --> 00:08:08,921
What couldn't be done?
176
00:08:08,922 --> 00:08:13,059
I just found a whale
to sing in our act.

Shirley: Dr. Whelander, do you know
why Danny put that ad in the paper?
179
00:08:51,231 --> 00:08:54,433
I understand you wanna
make a record using the whale.
180
00:08:54,434 --> 00:08:55,968
To be perfectly honest,
181
00:08:55,969 --> 00:08:58,605
when he first came up
with the idea, we all refused.
182
00:08:58,606 --> 00:09:00,573
I just felt that it was
taking advantage
183
00:09:00,574 --> 00:09:01,808
of the plight of the whales.
184
00:09:01,809 --> 00:09:03,810
The fact that whales
are almost extinct
185
00:09:03,811 --> 00:09:04,911
is the reason I wanna do it.
186
00:09:04,912 --> 00:09:06,846
My reasons exactly.
187
00:09:06,847 --> 00:09:09,181
If more people become
aware of whales...
188
00:09:09,182 --> 00:09:10,750
Well, maybe they'll do something
189
00:09:10,751 --> 00:09:12,284
to keep them from
being slaughtered.
190
00:09:12,285 --> 00:09:13,620
It's a nice whale.
191
00:09:13,621 --> 00:09:15,354
Yes, and smart.
192
00:09:15,355 --> 00:09:17,790
They're the most intelligent
animal, next to humans.
193
00:09:17,791 --> 00:09:20,126
You're kidding. Oh, no.
194
00:09:20,127 --> 00:09:22,528
There are documented
cases of whales and porpoises
195
00:09:22,529 --> 00:09:25,497
saving the lives of
drowning swimmers.
196
00:09:25,498 --> 00:09:27,734
We repay them by killing them.
197
00:09:27,735 --> 00:09:29,368
Keith: Why do
they kill the whales?
198
00:09:29,369 --> 00:09:31,437
Whelander: They kill
them to make dog food.
199
00:09:31,438 --> 00:09:33,973
Dog food? It's hard to believe.
200
00:09:33,974 --> 00:09:35,507
Unfortunately, it's true.
201
00:09:35,508 --> 00:09:37,376
That's why marineland
wants to make this record.
202
00:09:37,377 --> 00:09:39,478
Because any profits
we receive will go
203
00:09:39,479 --> 00:09:40,847
to the New York
zoological society.
204
00:09:40,848 --> 00:09:43,182
They're working
to save the whale.
205
00:09:43,183 --> 00:09:45,885
Well, if our making the
record can do anything at all
206
00:09:45,886 --> 00:09:47,553
to help the
whale, I'm all for it.
207
00:09:47,554 --> 00:09:49,856
Me too. Okay.
208
00:09:49,857 --> 00:09:52,759
But if we do do it, we'll
donate our profits too.
209
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,729
Great idea. Why don't
we donate 10 percent?
210
00:09:56,730 --> 00:09:58,364
Better yet, 5 percent.
211
00:09:58,365 --> 00:10:01,267
We wouldn't want to put
them in a higher tax bracket.
212
00:10:01,268 --> 00:10:02,769
A hundred percent.
213
00:10:02,770 --> 00:10:04,570
A hundred percent?
A hundred percent?
214
00:10:04,571 --> 00:10:06,138

a recording with my whale.

to get the whale
out of the inlet.

this all about?

Well, ma'am...
243
00:11:16,944 --> 00:11:18,477
I read in yesterday's paper

00:11:18,478 --> 00:11:20,546
that y'all are making a
recording with my whale.
245
00:11:20,547 --> 00:11:22,414
How did that get in the papers?

I told the reporter I was
talking off the record.
247
00:11:25,152 --> 00:11:27,019
You keep referring
to it as your whale.
248

The last time I talked to you,
249
00:11:28,588 --> 00:11:30,256
you referred to
it as "That thing."
250
00:11:30,257 --> 00:11:32,024
well, that thing is my
whale. I found him...
251
00:11:32,025 --> 00:11:33,793

remember giving y'all

It's not your whale!

some understanding.

Fifty percent. Fifty percent!

idea. That's right.

it was like seeing
myself in a mirror.

anything about the whale.

Doesn't care anything
about any whale.
283

make money off of it.

care about the whale.

00:16:07,567 --> 00:16:10,002
Nice to know you.
Nice to know you, sir.
349
00:16:10,003 --> 00:16:11,803
Well, look, now
that you're both here,
350
00:16:11,804 --> 00:16:14,106
we're running a
little bit short of time.
351
00:16:14,107 --> 00:16:16,175
I've already taped
the introductory part

00:16:16,176 --> 00:16:18,710
which explains what
you're doing here.
353
00:16:18,711 --> 00:16:21,147
Now I'd like to get
right into the interview.
354

Fine. Kids, come on.
355
00:16:30,023 --> 00:16:32,591
All right, I think
we're about all set.
356
00:16:32,592 --> 00:16:35,327
Okay, Sam.
357
00:16:35,328 --> 00:16:37,396
Mr. Flicker, I
understand you're the one
358
00:16:37,397 --> 00:16:40,432
who originally found
this great whale.
359
00:16:40,433 --> 00:16:41,401
That's right.
360
00:16:41,402 --> 00:16:43,335
Found him grounded in my inlet.
361
00:16:43,336 --> 00:16:45,704
Laying there just
like a fish out of water.
362
00:16:45,705 --> 00:16:48,674
The most pitiful
thing you ever did see.
363
00:16:48,675 --> 00:16:51,643
And that, of course, was
when you called marineland.
364
00:16:51,644 --> 00:16:55,781
Yes. He didn't want that
thing dying on his property.
365
00:16:55,782 --> 00:16:58,317
I sure didn't. I love animals.
366
00:16:58,318 --> 00:16:59,785
And if it wasn't for me,
367
00:16:59,786 --> 00:17:02,354
this magnificent beast
wouldn't be alive today,
368
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:04,490
starring on this record.
369
00:17:04,491 --> 00:17:06,592
Well, of course that's
very noble of you.
370
00:17:06,593 --> 00:17:09,395
I happen to be an
animal lover myself.
371
00:17:09,396 --> 00:17:12,198
But what about
you, Mrs. Partridge?
372
00:17:12,199 --> 00:17:14,633
Oh, an animal
lover? I certainly am.
373
00:17:14,634 --> 00:17:17,069
Well, I know you
claim you're making
374
00:17:17,070 --> 00:17:19,505
this record for
humanitarian reasons,
375
00:17:19,506 --> 00:17:23,275
but aren't you really
exploiting the whale?
376
00:17:23,276 --> 00:17:25,411
Why, whatever do you mean?
377
00:17:25,412 --> 00:17:28,280
The fact is that you're making
this record for commercial gain.
378
00:17:28,281 --> 00:17:31,617
Isn't that true?
Oh, no, Mr. Cosell.
379
00:17:31,618 --> 00:17:33,619
Why, our 50
percent of the profits
380
00:17:33,620 --> 00:17:37,089
is being donated to the
New York zoological society
381
00:17:37,090 --> 00:17:39,725
for the preservation of whales.
382
00:17:39,726 --> 00:17:42,161
But the other 50 percent...
383
00:17:42,162 --> 00:17:45,764
Well, I have no
control over that.
384
00:17:45,765 --> 00:17:47,467
Oh, who does?
385
00:17:49,902 --> 00:17:51,337
Fifty percent?
386
00:17:51,338 --> 00:17:54,306
Am I getting that much?
Your lawyer insisted.
387
00:17:54,307 --> 00:17:56,808
Mr. Flicker, since
that's the case,
388

with your share of the money?
390
00:18:04,083 --> 00:18:06,352
Well, i... I am a very
humanitarian type.
391
00:18:06,353 --> 00:18:09,621
Personally, whales are
sure high up on my list.

393
00:18:12,192 --> 00:18:13,725

great country great.

But address yourself, if
you will, to the question.
398
00:18:22,669 --> 00:18:25,837
What are you going
to do with the money?
399
00:18:25,838 --> 00:18:29,975
Well, uh, I do gotta get
my clutch in my car fixed.

Oh, I'll pay for that.
401
00:18:32,044 --> 00:18:36,148
Oh, well, of course I'm gonna
give my money to the whales.
402
00:18:36,149 --> 00:18:37,549
Well, what else can I do?
403

concerned American do?
