00:01:42We're all ready to shoot it, Mr. Coffey.

00:02:05♪
00:02:11Hey, Henry.
00:02:13The rope you gave us for that last thing,
00:02:15that's that guy up and down like he's on a rubber band.
00:02:18His only weight is 134.
00:02:20And a couple of pounds for breakfast,
00:02:22the way those guys always eat.
00:02:23That brings it up to 136.
00:02:25Give it up or you'll get the spring out of it.
00:02:27We want this one's neck broke.
00:02:29All right.
00:02:31♪
00:02:47Hey, what's the idea of throwing things out of the window?
00:02:49Quit playing with that gallon.
00:02:51I didn't expect this to do any work.
00:02:53Get out there yelling.
00:02:57I'll get the sheriff after you, tramp.
00:02:59Hey, much respect for the press around here.
00:03:02I'm the wife, Anthony Bennett.
00:03:03Worse.
00:03:05Me having to hang around all day and all night
00:03:07waiting for them to hang that cuckoo.
00:03:08Hard work, all right.
00:03:10Crank it for a dime.
00:03:11Hey, Schwartz, what do you do?
00:03:13Buy me.
00:03:14What time is it anyway?
00:03:164.30.
00:03:18Hey, me too.
00:03:20These cards are like wash bags.
00:03:22Let's chip in and get a new deck.
00:03:23These are good enough for me.
00:03:24I'll be sent out already.
00:03:27Paper, 105.9.
00:03:30Hey, take this phone.
00:03:33Ernie, you ain't doing anything.
00:03:36Are you guys crippled or something?
00:03:40Criminal court building, classroom.
00:03:42Just a minute, please.
00:03:44Hello, Sarge.
00:03:45It's you.
00:03:46Yeah, I phone.
00:03:48Anything going?
00:03:50All right.
00:03:51Thank you, Sarge.
00:03:53All right.
00:03:54Thank you, Sarge.
00:03:55Who's here?
00:03:56Say, Ernie, why don't you take your instrument
00:03:59into the library and play it?
00:04:07Hello.
00:04:08Is this the home of Mrs. F.D. Margolis?
00:04:11This is Mr. McHugh of the city news bureau.
00:04:14Is it true, madam, that she was a victim of a peeping tom?
00:04:17Ask her if she's worth peeping at.
00:04:19Oh, no, madam, that ain't the right attitude to take.
00:04:22All we want is the facts.
00:04:23Tell her I can run up for an hour.
00:04:25Tell her to come over here.
00:04:26We'd like to reenact the crime.
00:04:28Just a minute, madam.
00:04:30Is it true, Mrs. Margolis, that you took the part of Lady Godiva
00:04:33for charity seven years ago?
00:04:36Hello.
00:04:38She cut off.
00:04:39What, her hair?
00:04:41Tell her I'll be right over.
00:04:45Yeah?
00:04:46No, he'll be just a minute.
00:04:48Oh.
00:04:49Oh, hello, Mr. Burns.
00:04:50No, hell, he hasn't shown up yet.
00:04:52Yeah, sure, Mr. Burns.
00:04:56Hello, Hansinger.
00:04:58I just had an interview with Williams.
00:05:00Over in that death house.
00:05:04That jail.
00:05:05That jail is reeking with germs.
00:05:07Oh, believe me, the board of health is going to hear
00:05:09about the conditions over there through my paper.
00:05:11It's amazing to me that those prisoners can live long enough
00:05:14to get home.
00:05:16What's the idea, Mac?
00:05:18Say.
00:05:19Is that the only telephone in this place?
00:05:21The only one with a mouthpiece.
00:05:22How many times have I got to tell you fellas
00:05:24to let my phone alone?
00:05:26You want to talk to a mouthpiece?
00:05:27Go and buy one like I did.
00:05:29Whitney 9000.
00:05:30The germs of the mouth are the most contagious.
00:05:32Oh, shut up, Mr. Reed.
00:05:34Whitney 9000.
00:05:36What is this, a hospital?
00:05:38Yeah, Roy, Hansinger's telephone's coming along.
00:05:40Hello, Sarge.
00:05:41McHugh.
00:05:42Anything going?
00:05:44Say.
00:05:46You don't have to use my desk for a garbage can, either.
00:05:51Say, how'd you like to stop stinking up this place
00:05:53with those antiseptics?
00:05:56Yeah, anything new on the hanging beds here?
00:05:58My deal, ain't it?
00:06:00Hey, don't I?
00:06:01What is it?
00:06:02Question before the house.
00:06:03Gentleman wants to know if there's anything new on the hanging.
00:06:05Oh, nothing special.
00:06:07Did you talk to the sheriff?
00:06:09Why don't you get your own news?
00:06:13Somebody ought to see the sheriff.
00:06:17Criminal Court's bedroom.
00:06:19No, Hildy, come to me.
00:06:21Oh, yes, Mr. Burns.
00:06:23No, Mr. Burns.
00:06:25Yes, Mr. Burns.
00:06:27Goodbye, Mr. Burns.
00:06:29Waller Burns to Hildy again.
00:06:31Something must have happened.
00:06:32I'll tell you what's happened.
00:06:34Hildy's quit.
00:06:35Oh, nerds.
00:06:36You know, Hildy's a fixture on the morning post.
00:06:38Yeah, he goes with the woodwork.
00:06:40Well, he told me he was gonna quit.
00:06:41Say, listen, Waller Burns wouldn't let him quit.
00:06:43He'll find a way to keep him here somehow.
00:06:45Remember what he did to Fenton when he wanted to go to Hollywood?
00:06:47Yeah.
00:06:48Got him into a fight and had him thrown into jail for assault and battery.
00:06:51He may have realized, well, if he ain't quit, why ain't he here covering the hanging?
00:06:55I wish I could quit.
00:06:57Ready?
00:06:58Nurse Isabel Zobo.
00:07:00Red for zebra, O for onion, B for baptize, E for anything else for, uh...
00:07:05L for, uh...
00:07:07Oh, don't tell him anybody.
00:07:10L for Listerine.
00:07:13Swedish masseuse with rooms at 608 Inverness Avenue.
00:07:17Well, this lady was arrested tonight on complaint of a lot of angry wives.
00:07:21They claim she's been treating their husbands with electricity at a dollar a time.
00:07:25Well, the Swedish kid is in again.
00:07:27I understand she massages them, too.
00:07:31Well, anyway, she's arrested,
00:07:33and the station house is full of her patients claiming she's innocent.
00:07:37Half the stock exchange is there, too, trying to provide bail.
00:07:41Ha, ha, ha.
00:07:43All right.
00:07:45Lane, 6800.
00:07:49Bernie, why don't you take up electricity instead of that noise?
00:07:53Oh, it's got no future.
00:07:58Buzz?
00:07:59No, Mr. Burns, Willie Johnson ain't...
00:08:01I'm not lying, Mr. Burns.
00:08:04Walter acted like he'd post a blood letter.
00:08:12He's running out, isn't he, sir?
00:08:14No.
00:08:15Then I'll have to put another man on the job.
00:08:17In your hat, Duffy.
00:08:18I'm after that bunch of lily-livered, fox-marked,
00:08:20peanut politicians who think they're running this town,
00:08:22and he'll be Johnson's the only man on the staff I can trust tonight.
00:08:25But we've got to have...
00:08:26We've got to have Johnson.
00:08:31But you haven't got him.
00:08:35I've got him.
00:08:37I've got him.
00:08:40Hold it!
00:08:48Hold it!
00:08:49I want him, he's Johnson.
00:08:51Tell the boys on the down-front deliveries to find him,
00:08:53and find him fast.
00:08:54Fifty dollars.
00:08:55He's trying to bring some in.
00:08:56Where's Simon Lewis?
00:08:57Right there.
00:08:58Hurry, we're 60!
00:09:00Hold on!
00:09:01Hey, Lewis!
00:09:03Hey, Lewis!
00:09:09Hey, Lewis!
00:09:11All right, folks.
00:09:15Lewis.
00:09:16Billy Johnson's missing.
00:09:18I want him.
00:09:19Get going.
00:09:20Don't worry, boys.
00:09:34Billy Johnson here?
00:09:35He's on the wagon.
00:09:36I ain't.
00:09:37Do you remember me?
00:09:38I was here last night with Mr. Bensley.
00:09:40Mr. Bensley's still here.
00:09:41Great.
00:09:42Hey, baby.
00:09:43Where's Johnson?
00:09:44Have you seen him?
00:09:45I haven't seen that nuthead much.
00:09:49Hello, baby.
00:10:04Hello.
00:10:05Good evening.
00:10:06I'm looking for Billy Johnson.
00:10:08Why?
00:10:09Walter Burns wants to see him.
00:10:11And I want to see Walter Burns.
00:10:13How much for?
00:10:14Two dollars.
00:10:20Two dollars, please.
00:10:25Two dollars, please.
00:10:27Two dollars, please.
00:10:30Two dollars, please.
00:10:32Oh, I'm sorry.
00:10:34Well, darling, they're almost mine.
00:10:42Honey, I'd write the society notes.
00:10:44You gonna look at Walter Burns' face when he hears of this?
00:10:46No, I'd write up for a year to see when he hears I'm getting married.
00:10:49Oh, I'd write up for two years to get along with what he says
00:10:52when I'm leaving that son of a bitch New York.
00:10:57What's the matter?
00:10:58What's the matter?
00:11:00Oh, so that's why you got that.
00:11:02Walter Burns.
00:11:04That's why you're going to marry me, Walter Burns.
00:11:07That's why you're going to New York, to fight Walter Burns.
00:11:10Oh, honey, you're crazy.
00:11:11Now listen.
00:11:12Listen here.
00:11:13Did you ever come up out of a sewer?
00:11:16Honey, did you ever come up...
00:11:23Did you ever come up out of a sewer
00:11:25and have the cool, fresh air, did you?
00:11:27Well, I did.
00:11:29And, honey, you're the cool, fresh air.
00:11:31You've made a fresh air feed out of me, dear.
00:11:33And I'm not going back there.
00:11:35I'm going to New York.
00:11:37I'm going to New York.
00:11:39I'm going to New York.
00:11:41I'm going to New York.
00:11:43I'm going to New York.
00:11:45Unless you stand me.
00:11:47Then, Hildy, you go right up to Walter Burns and resign.
00:11:50And have him get his hands on me?
00:11:53The fly been hiding out at your place
00:11:55to keep away from that double-crossing maniac.
00:11:57I'll tell you what I'll do.
00:11:59I'll resign by phone,
00:12:00and they get a look at that snakes-face man.
00:12:02Oh, no, you don't.
00:12:03Here.
00:12:08What, 500, and then one bill?
00:12:11Uncle sent it to me for a wedding dress.
00:12:13I wasn't going to give it to you until we got there.
00:12:15But you take it, and after you take me home, you get to take it.
00:12:19Instead of getting married tonight, we'll get married tomorrow.
00:12:21Instead of going to New York tomorrow, we'll go to New York tonight.
00:12:38All we have to do is blow the old underwinder trunk 24 hours earlier, that's all.
00:12:42Oh, what is it, Mother?
00:12:44Do you know what I think?
00:12:45What?
00:12:46I think you must be a part of your responsibility, or you wouldn't do things this way.
00:12:51Now, Mother, you stop taking on my guilt.
00:12:54He didn't do a one-blessed thing to help our family away.
00:12:58You'd better get busy.
00:13:00Oh, yes.
00:13:12Oh, that's the dress you had on the first night I met you.
00:13:32You're the one I care for.
00:13:36Yes.
00:13:39Wait a minute.
00:13:42The dress you had on the night you said no?
00:13:49Come here.
00:14:13It's a movie house!
00:14:14Oh, this could be another Iraq War theater, Captain.
00:14:16They've been throwing in a camera.
00:14:18Full page of pictures.
00:14:19Spiceville Carnage.
00:14:20Mess of the Morning Post.
00:14:21Holy Fire Exit.
00:14:22Text a few hundreds.
00:14:23Expose a theater owner.
00:14:24Shatter of the Morning Post.
00:14:25City Board to investigate.
00:14:26Oh.
00:14:27Listen, honey, I'm in downtown.
00:14:28Get those tickets.
00:14:29See you tomorrow.
00:14:30See you later.
00:14:31Really?
00:14:32Oh, Emily.
00:14:33Oh.
00:14:34Oh.
00:14:35Oh.
00:14:36Oh.
00:14:37Oh.
00:14:38Oh.
00:14:40Hello, Emily.
00:14:43I'd like to have a little talk with you for about 15 minutes.
00:14:45Not a chance.
00:14:46Why not?
00:14:47I'm busy.
00:14:48You're not too busy to be playing around the neighborhood
00:14:50turning in false fire alarms.
00:14:52What?
00:14:53Hello, Max.
00:14:56Come on, Mr. Vance.
00:15:00All right, boy.
00:15:09Boy, I wish I could find the guy that did this.
00:15:11I'd make that fox his tombstone.
00:15:13Aren't you going to ask me how I found out where you were?
00:15:15Yeah, great scoop.
00:15:16But everybody at the county building working for you.
00:15:18And I was just in the middle of a hot cake.
00:15:26Set him up.
00:15:27None for me.
00:15:28He'll take the stand.
00:15:32So you're leaving me for marriage?
00:15:35Why?
00:15:37None of your business.
00:15:40How'd it happen?
00:15:42There was a move.
00:15:44Well, I guess that lets me out.
00:15:47I'll give you a farewell party.
00:15:49Thanks.
00:15:51But it hurts, you'll leave.
00:15:53You're not telling a fellow after all I've done for you.
00:15:56You mean after all you've done to me?
00:15:58The time you sent me down the lake to test that trick diving suit.
00:16:01That suit was about as waterproof as your straw hat.
00:16:04It fell so fast it took me half an hour to pull me up.
00:16:06You're lucky I only went deaf.
00:16:08Didn't I go to the expense of hiring an airplane to take you up
00:16:10so you could get your hearing back?
00:16:11And at the further expense of driving the pilot
00:16:13so I met him in the middle of a strike massacre at Heron on the noise?
00:16:15You scooped the whole world of the story,
00:16:16you made yourself the envy of every newspaper man alive.
00:16:23Oh, well, it was worth it, I'd say.
00:16:26Even if I did get ridden out of town, remember this?
00:16:28Yeah.
00:16:29With eight full of holes in a hat that cost me six bucks.
00:16:32The judge on the expense got a 15 and got away with it.
00:16:38Ah, those were the days.
00:16:40You'll certainly have a lot to tell the kids.
00:16:43Yeah.
00:16:44What kids?
00:16:46You're getting married.
00:16:51Well, why not?
00:16:55A guy's got to settle down sometime.
00:16:58Get a home and a wife.
00:17:01You see, it's kids that hold it all together.
00:17:04That's right.
00:17:07I was never big enough to let a nice girl reform me
00:17:09so I could stay in a two-room love nest at night
00:17:11with a wife and kids while the fellas were out having a lot of fun.
00:17:16Oh, dear.
00:17:18Marriage does make a respectable citizen out of a man.
00:17:21It must be grand.
00:17:24Not a disidiotic jumping around at all hours
00:17:25and having to be on the inside of all the crazy excitement in this town.
00:17:30Ah, the 5.15 after some quiet suburb.
00:17:33A home-cooked dinner every night at exactly 7 and by 10 in bed.
00:17:38Unless, after the tapioca, the wife has a few friends in for a neighborly chat.
00:17:44I don't blame you, Hildy.
00:17:45It sounds great.
00:17:54Excuse me a minute, will you?
00:18:17Come on, Esk.
00:18:18Won't you deal him out, boy?
00:18:19Don't let that deck get cold.
00:18:20See if you can deal me a decent hand, will you?
00:18:23Any news?
00:18:25I've just been over to the death house.
00:18:28Did you hear what Williams said to the priest?
00:18:30Oh, forget it.
00:18:32Yeah, I know, I know.
00:18:33The paper's full of the hangin'.
00:18:34We ain't got room for the ads.
00:18:35What did Williams say?
00:18:36He said that...
00:18:38Come on, boys.
00:18:39Ante up.
00:18:40Ante up.
00:18:41I've anted twice already.
00:18:42He said to the priest that he was innocent.
00:18:45He'll start crying in a minute.
00:18:47Why don't you send the poor nut some roses
00:18:49like that girl of his, Molly Malloy?
00:18:51Oh, now, there you are.
00:18:52There's an idea.
00:18:53She thinks she's innocent, too.
00:18:55Oh, you fellas don't understand.
00:18:57Now, I...
00:18:58Before you go on, wouldn't you,
00:18:59would you mind running down to the corner
00:19:00and getting me a hamburger sandwich?
00:19:03Personally, my feeling is...
00:19:05Ain't that two hamburgers like a good fellow?
00:19:08Now, my feeling is that Williams
00:19:11is of the doomed personality type.
00:19:14Yeah, yeah, I know, I know.
00:19:15Like the Dolly sisters.
00:19:16Yeah, tell it to the Tribune.
00:19:18Three.
00:19:19All right.
00:19:20That's two.
00:19:21It's on account of the way his head is shaped.
00:19:24It's a typical case.
00:19:26No.
00:19:27Ask him to put a lot of ketchup on them sandwiches.
00:19:31I thought you fellas might be interested
00:19:34in the psychological age.
00:19:36Make my frame letters on gluten bread.
00:19:39Get me a sandwich, too, would you?
00:19:41I raised him.
00:19:42Well, I just dropped right now.
00:19:44Where am I going to get the dough for all these eats?
00:19:47Well, charge it.
00:19:48You got a badge, hasn't you?
00:19:49What's it good for?
00:19:54Four hamburgers.
00:19:58And a letter.
00:20:02On gluten?
00:20:03Oh, hello, Mr. Burns.
00:20:06Why, no, we haven't seen Hildy.
00:20:08I have plans.
00:20:09What do you think?
00:20:10It's like a shame.
00:20:12This Walter Burns got away.
00:20:13Talk to him, will you, Hildy?
00:20:15He's all that paranoid to take a sweet kiss for himself.
00:20:18Come on, Ernie.
00:20:19Sound your age.
00:20:20Goodbye forever.
00:20:21Mr. Hildy, will you do me a personal favor
00:20:23and talk to Walter?
00:20:25He's been calling up about nine million times.
00:20:27What's the matter, Hildy?
00:20:28Are you afraid of him?
00:20:30I'll talk to that maniac with pleasure.
00:20:33Hello, Mr. Burns.
00:20:36What's that, Mr. Burns?
00:20:37Why, your language is shocking, Mr. Burns.
00:20:40Say, listen, you crazy baboon.
00:20:42Get a pencil and paper and take this down
00:20:44and get out of my face because it's important.
00:20:46This is the Hildy Johnson curse.
00:20:48The next time I see you, no matter where I am
00:20:50or what I'm doing, I'm going to walk right up to you
00:20:52and hammer on that monkey skull of yours
00:20:53till it rings like a Chinese gong.
00:20:55Oh, boy.
00:20:56That's telling us.
00:20:57Listen to this.
00:21:01No, I ain't going to cover the hanging.
00:21:03I wouldn't cover Washington Cross in the Delaware for you
00:21:05not if I did it all over again.
00:21:07Never mind the Vaseline, Jackal.
00:21:08I won't do you any good this time because I'm going to New York.
00:21:11I didn't tell you that, did I?
00:21:13You know what's good for you?
00:21:14You'll stay west of Gary, Indiana,
00:21:15because the Johnson never forgets.
00:21:18And that voice is what is known for telling them anything, isn't it?
00:21:20Well, why'd you quit?
00:21:21Getting married.
00:21:22See those three to New York tonight.
00:21:24Tonight?
00:21:25Yes, sir.
00:21:26What do you mean, three?
00:21:27Me and my girl and her darling mom.
00:21:29Oh, look.
00:21:30He's in love.
00:21:31Just who was that?
00:21:33Is she a bright girl?
00:21:34Has she got a good shape?
00:21:36Does Walter know you're getting married?
00:21:38Does he know?
00:21:39She'll dance like a pal over to throw me a farewell dinner.
00:21:42That's his favorite joke.
00:21:44Farewell dinner.
00:21:45He poisons people, Adam.
00:21:47Give me Tucker 2164, will you?
00:21:49Yeah, he got me in a pool out, Mike.
00:21:51Filled me full of cheap booze.
00:21:52I'd have been there, yeah, if I hadn't been for the window.
00:21:55Can you imagine that guy trying to break up my marriage after shaking hands?
00:21:59Oh, hello, Peggy.
00:22:01Why are you doubting?
00:22:02Hmm?
00:22:03Well, I know, but...
00:22:05Oh, you bet I resigned right in his face, didn't I?
00:22:08Yes, sir.
00:22:09What?
00:22:11I'll be 18 tonight.
00:22:13The press room.
00:22:14Just dropped in to say goodbye to the boys.
00:22:16Yeah.
00:22:17No, not a chance, honey.
00:22:18I got a taxi waiting.
00:22:19Yeah.
00:22:20Ten minutes.
00:22:21Bye-bye, honey.
00:22:24Hey.
00:22:25Where's the wedding?
00:22:27In New York.
00:22:28So you guys ain't gonna have any fun with it.
00:22:30Those fake warrants.
00:22:31You're kidnapping a bride with me.
00:22:32Everybody's getting a New York grave.
00:22:34I think it's a stinking village.
00:22:36You want to count, Hildy?
00:22:37They tell me all the reporters in New York use lipstick.
00:22:40Remember that one last summer?
00:22:41With a topper?
00:22:43Oh, what man was the man?
00:22:45Could any of you gentlemen tell me what a telegraph officer he is?
00:22:48You want to count, Hildy, or you'll be talking like that.
00:22:50Which one of those New York papers are you going to work for?
00:22:52None of them.
00:22:53Who wants to work in a newspaper?
00:22:54It's got a whole boat full of damn different badges in there.
00:22:56We'd love all of them.
00:22:57What are you going in for?
00:22:58The movie?
00:22:59The advertising business.
00:23:00$150 a week.
00:23:01What?
00:23:02$150 what?
00:23:04There's the contract.
00:23:10Have you guys got anything better to do down there?
00:23:13It is $150.
00:23:15You're going to miss a sweet hanging.
00:23:17Not if he's going to write poetry about the ladies' panties.
00:23:20Can you imagine punching a time clock,
00:23:22sitting around with a lot of stuffed shirts,
00:23:24talking statistics?
00:23:25Why, you'll be like a fire horse tied to a milk wagon.
00:23:28Listen to who's talking.
00:23:29Journalists.
00:23:30Peeking through keyholes.
00:23:31Running after fire engines like a lot of coach dogs.
00:23:34Waking people up in the middle of the night
00:23:35to ask them what they think of UCLA.
00:23:37Stealing pictures of the low ladies with their daughters
00:23:39to get a tax at Grove Park.
00:23:41A lot of dandy buddies keep swimming around
00:23:43with hoes in their pants.
00:23:45Borrowing nickels from office boys.
00:23:46And for what?
00:23:47So a million hired girls and motormen's wives
00:23:49will know what's going on.
00:23:50Yeah, your girl must have handed you that line.
00:23:52I don't have to have anybody tell me about a newspaper.
00:23:54I've been a newspaper man for 15 years.
00:23:56Cross between a bootlegger and a galooper.
00:23:58If you want to know something,
00:23:59you'll all end up on a copy desk.
00:24:00Gray-haired, humpbacked slobs,
00:24:01dodging debt collectors when you're 90.
00:24:03You'll be out on the street to finish your contract up.
00:24:05Not me.
00:24:06My girl's uncle owns the business.
00:24:07Has he got a lot of jack shopping on him?
00:24:09What do you think he'd give us for a wedding present?
00:24:10A dozen doilies.
00:24:13$500 in stash.
00:24:15There ain't $500 in stash.
00:24:17There it is.
00:24:18Except when it's hard to get those tickets to New York.
00:24:20Let me count it.
00:24:21Oh, no, you don't.
00:24:22Just a minute.
00:24:23Just a minute, boys.
00:24:24What about a little bite?
00:24:25Damn.
00:24:28Jenny.
00:24:29Groves.
00:24:30Groves.
00:24:31Groves in America.
00:24:33Can I wash up now, please?
00:24:35Yes.
00:24:36The place is beginning to smell like an owl's foot.
00:24:39Oh, you don't want to wash up on a night like this.
00:24:41Jenny, this is a holiday.
00:24:42Come on.
00:24:43Give us a kiss.
00:24:44You really don't keep away from me.
00:24:45What's the matter?
00:24:46Ain't I your fella anymore?
00:24:47Tell you what we'll do, Jenny.
00:24:49You and I will go around and say goodbye
00:24:50to everybody in the building.
00:24:52Oh, but we can't carry this all over.
00:24:54Come on, Jenny.
00:24:55Come on.
00:24:56Hey.
00:24:58Look.
00:25:01Come on, Jenny.
00:25:02You and I will say goodbye to the woods.
00:25:03No.
00:25:04We'll do something.
00:25:05Why, I own this building.
00:25:06Won't be around again, Jenny.
00:25:08Won't be around again.
00:25:10Won't be around again.
00:25:13Won't be around again, Jenny.
00:25:15Won't be around again.
00:25:17Get out of here.
00:25:18Come on.
00:25:29Look here, fellas.
00:25:30Hi.
00:25:32Hello, fellas.
00:25:33Now, hey.
00:25:35Who dumped that out of this window?
00:25:37We promised not to tell.
00:25:39Who threw it?
00:25:41Judge Mankiewicz threw it.
00:25:43He was in here with his robes on playing fireman.
00:25:49Come on now, fellas.
00:25:50I know who it was.
00:25:51It was Hildy Johnson, wasn't it?
00:25:54Where is he?
00:25:55Out with the lady.
00:25:57I swear I don't know what to do with you fellas.
00:26:00I've a darn good mind to take this press room away from you.
00:26:09Stop it.
00:26:12Wouldn't that be too bad?
00:26:13With a place so full of cockroaches, you can't walk.
00:26:16Personally, I don't give two hoots.
00:26:19But how do you suppose it looks to have a lot of hoodlums yelling
00:26:22and throwing things out of the window?
00:26:25There's someone in that guest house.
00:26:28How do you suppose he feels listening to all this rebellion?
00:26:31A lot you care how he feels.
00:26:33We're doing everything possible to take...
00:26:35To get your whole ticket reelected next week.
00:26:37Yes, when Earl Williams drops through that trap tomorrow,
00:26:39it means a million votes.
00:26:41Can we help it if the people rise to support this administration's
00:26:44stand against the Red Menace?
00:26:46Personified by Mr. Earl Williams,
00:26:47the guy who loses the job he's held for 14 years,
00:26:50joins a parade of the unemployed,
00:26:51and because he's goofy from lack of food,
00:26:53waves the red undershirt.
00:26:54Williams is a dangerous radical, and he killed a policeman.
00:26:57Williams is a fool bird who has a tough luck to kill a colored policeman
00:27:00in a town where their colored vote's important.
00:27:02And...
00:27:03They'll hang you, Danny Deaver, in the morning.
00:27:07You!
00:27:08Keep your shirt on, Pinky.
00:27:09And I don't want to hear any more of that Pinky stuff.
00:27:12I got a name, see?
00:27:13Peter B. Hartman.
00:27:16Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
00:27:21Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
00:27:26Stop it!
00:27:27Pinky, how's that look to the voters?
00:27:30Like I had sore eyes or... something.
00:27:36Just a minute, fellas, just a minute.
00:27:39Now, Pete, how about the favor that, uh, certain party is asking?
00:27:43Once and for all, will you hang this person at 5 a.m. instead of 7?
00:27:47We can't hurt you, and we can make the city edition.
00:27:50Roy, you can't hang a man in his sleep just to please the newspaper.
00:27:54No, but you can keep postponing the hanging so it'll come just before the election.
00:27:58Yes.
00:27:59With this new alien that's coming in, how do we know there'll be a hanging?
00:28:01Yes.
00:28:02What if this professor finds he's insane or something?
00:28:04Yes.
00:28:05Well, he won't find he's insane.
00:28:06No?
00:28:07No, because he ain't.
00:28:09Williams is as sane as I am.
00:28:12Saner.
00:28:17Yes.
00:28:22I'm here to resume the situation.
00:28:24The newspapers have got to put their shoulders to the wheel.
00:28:27Please do, Jeff.
00:28:28They've got to...
00:28:29They've got to impress on these voters that a death warrant for Earl Williams
00:28:33is a death warrant for everyone from, so on, on American Red in this town.
00:28:38This hanging means more to the people of our fair city today.
00:28:51That's a statement, Jimmy.
00:28:53Why don't you go home?
00:28:56All right.
00:28:57You'll just get scooped.
00:29:02We're going to reform the Reds with a rope.
00:29:04That's our slogan.
00:29:05You can quote me if you want to.
00:29:07Sheriff Hartman said...
00:29:08Oh, P. Oyer, we've been printing this check not for weeks.
00:29:12Ain't you going to use that?
00:29:13Sure.
00:29:15Give me the desk.
00:29:17This is Bensinger.
00:29:19The sheriff refuses to move the hanging up a minute.
00:29:22No, I won't.
00:29:24That thing is coming off exactly as per schedule.
00:29:27Seven o'clock in the morning and not a minute sooner.
00:29:30That's such a thing as being humane, you know.
00:29:33All right.
00:29:34All right.
00:29:35Which way do you want to favor?
00:29:36Give me a rewrite.
00:29:37Never too high in the morning.
00:29:43Jake, you lead on the hanging.
00:29:47And say, Jake, don't use Hartman's name in this at all.
00:29:50Just say the sheriff.
00:29:51Why can't this jerk see these guys in a reasonable hour
00:29:54so we can get some sleep?
00:29:56This new alienist, Dr. Max J. Egglehopper.
00:30:02That's right.
00:30:03From Vienna.
00:30:05He's going to examine Williams at the request of the
00:30:08United Federation for World Betterment.
00:30:11Oh, my.
00:30:12One of the biggest.
00:30:13Author of that book, The Personality Plan.
00:30:16Where to put it?
00:30:17At a dime.
00:30:18Just autograph the copy for me.
00:30:20The plan is initialed in your pants, too?
00:30:22Wait.
00:30:23There's more.
00:30:24That doctor's the 14th pair of whiskers they've sent in on this case.
00:30:27Say, those alienists make me sick.
00:30:29All they do is push you, then send you a bill for 500 bucks.
00:30:33Give me the desk.
00:30:34Now, Jake, here's the situation on the eve of the hanging.
00:30:37Hello, this is Murphy.
00:30:38More slop on the hanging.
00:30:39To the jail, the municipal buildings, the railroad terminals,
00:30:42and elevated stations to prepare for the expected
00:30:44general uprising of radicals at the hour of execution.
00:30:47Sheriff Hartman has just put 400 more relatives on the payroll
00:30:50to protect the city against the Red Menace,
00:30:52which is leaving Moscow in a couple of minutes.
00:30:56Up a dime.
00:30:57Sheriff Hartman, the sheriff, has just received
00:31:01four more letters threatening his life,
00:31:03which he's going to answer by a series of raids.
00:31:05Prove to the voters that the Red Menace is on the square.
00:31:07Sheriff Hartman has just written himself
00:31:09four more letters threatening his life.
00:31:11Yes.
00:31:12Yes.
00:31:13That's how he wrote them, on account of the misspelling.
00:31:18That's all, Jake.
00:31:20Except the condemned man ate a hearty dinner.
00:31:23Oh, uh...
00:31:25Mock turtle soup, chicken pot pie, hashed brown potatoes,
00:31:28combination salad, and pie.
00:31:30A la mode.
00:31:31The doomed man ate a hearty meal as follows.
00:31:33Noodle soup, roasted beef, sweet potato, cranberry sauce,
00:31:36strawberry pie, and a great big hunk of pastrami.
00:31:39Statement from who?
00:31:41The sheriff.
00:31:42Oh, call him for anything you want.
00:31:44He can't read.
00:31:45Ruger calling.
00:31:47Nothing new on the hanging.
00:31:53Say, Jake, get this in as a big favor for me, will you?
00:31:58The whole meal was furnished by Charlie Apfel.
00:32:02And, uh, Apfel.
00:32:04A for adenoids, P for psychology,
00:32:08F for phenomens, E for epilepsy,
00:32:10L for, uh, an elf, or, uh...
00:32:18Lay an egg.
00:32:20Certainly, this is Bensinger talking.
00:32:23Well, the proprietor of Apfel wants to see you restaurant.
00:32:27That's it, yes.
00:32:33Stinky Bensinger's going in for pedigree again.
00:32:35That means a new hat for somebody.
00:32:37I understand that's how Bensinger gets all his clothes.
00:32:39Of course, the greasy spoon gave him that overcoat
00:32:41when George Kidd's cue chorus swung.
00:32:43If they ever stop hanging people, they'll probably go naked.
00:32:46Why don't you make a pool out of it, Roy?
00:32:48Hello, Molly.
00:32:50Uh-oh, there's a gleam in her eye.
00:32:53Don't look at me, sweetheart.
00:32:54I never said a word.
00:32:55Hello, kids, how's it going for me today?
00:32:57Jordan, how are you, Molly?
00:32:59Been looking for you, Ken.
00:33:01Kid, those are swell roses you sent Earl.
00:33:03What do you want done with them tomorrow, Molly?
00:33:05A lot of wise guys, ain't you?
00:33:07What do you want in here?
00:33:08I'll tell you when I think of you.
00:33:09All of you.
00:33:10Keep your skirts on.
00:33:13You was worth breaking my fingernails on.
00:33:15I'd tear your face wide open.
00:33:17What's the matter, sweetheart?
00:33:18What are you sore about?
00:33:19Now, wasn't that a swell story we gave you?
00:33:21Yeah.
00:33:22You crumbs have been making a fool out of me long enough.
00:33:24She oughtn't to be allowed in here.
00:33:26Yesterday, I caught her using the drinking cup.
00:33:29I never said I loved Earl Williams.
00:33:31I was willing to marry him one of the gals.
00:33:33You made that up.
00:33:34About my being his soul mate and having a love nest with him.
00:33:37I came around that cuckoo ever since he's been in the death house.
00:33:40Everybody knows you're his affinity.
00:33:42That's a rotten lie.
00:33:44I met Mr. Williams just once in my life.
00:33:46He was wandering around in the rain without his hat and coat on like a sick dog.
00:33:50The day before the shooting.
00:33:52I went up to him like any human being would, and that's what was the matter.
00:33:55He told me about being fired after working at the same place for 14 years.
00:33:59I took him up to my room because it was warm there.
00:34:02Put that on your Victrola.
00:34:04Just because you want to fill your lying papers with a lot of dirty scammer, you've got to torture him.
00:34:09Make a tramp out of me.
00:34:11Got a match?
00:34:12I tell you, he just sat there talking to me all night.
00:34:15Never once laid a hand on me.
00:34:17Uh-oh.
00:34:18In the morning, he went away.
00:34:20I never saw him again until that day at the trial.
00:34:23Tell us what you told the jury.
00:34:25Go on, laugh.
00:34:27I'd like to know if some curse is bad enough for your greedy souls.
00:34:31Surely it was his witness, the only one he had.
00:34:33Who is this?
00:34:34Yes, me.
00:34:35Molly Malloy, a common street walker.
00:34:37The only one with nerve enough to stand up for him.
00:34:40That's why you're persecuting me.
00:34:42Because he treated me decent, not like an animal.
00:34:44And I said so.
00:34:45Go on to your desk, kid.
00:34:46This is the press room.
00:34:47Where's Vicki?
00:34:48Why don't you go and see your boyfriend?
00:34:49Better hurry.
00:34:50He's left a call for 7 a.m.
00:34:53It's no wonder a bolt of lightning don't come down and strike you all dead.
00:35:04What was that?
00:35:06They're fixing up a pain in the neck for your boyfriend.
00:35:11Oh, what's the idea?
00:35:14Oh, now, now.
00:35:16Don't get hysterical yet.
00:35:18Oh, shame on you.
00:35:20Why, I didn't say anything.
00:35:23A poor, crazy little guy that never did anybody any harm.
00:35:30Sitting out there alone, this minute, with the angel of death beside him.
00:35:35And you, crack at two.
00:35:37Say, listen, if you don't shut up, I'll give you something to cry about.
00:35:40Oh, keep your dirty hands off of me.
00:35:42Come on, outside.
00:35:43Get away from me.
00:35:44Come on, get out of here.
00:35:45Get up.
00:35:46Take it on the lam.
00:35:47You'll pay for this with your greedy soul.
00:36:00Well, do you guys want to play some more poker?
00:36:17Here, now.
00:36:18Tickets for the hanging.
00:36:19Two for each paper.
00:36:20What do you mean, two?
00:36:21What do you want to do?
00:36:22Take your family?
00:36:23Hey, listen, Pete, I...
00:36:24The boss wants the company.
00:36:25I want the company.
00:36:26I want the company.
00:36:27I want the company.
00:36:28Pete, I...
00:36:29The boss wants a couple for the advertising department.
00:36:30I promise to pay them.
00:36:31This ain't the Follies, you know.
00:36:32Oh.
00:36:33Big Heart and Pinky.
00:36:34I'm getting tired of your editors using these tickets to get advertising accounts.
00:36:38You got a lot of nerve.
00:36:39Everybody knows you use them to get in socially.
00:36:41Yeah, you had the whole Union League Club over at the last hanging.
00:36:44Trying to suck in with the Swells, huh?
00:36:46I suppose you'll wear a monocle tomorrow morning.
00:36:48Now, boys, that ain't the way to talk.
00:36:51If any of you want a couple of extra tickets...
00:36:54I'll be more than glad to take care of you.
00:36:57But for goodness sake, don't you...
00:37:06Hiya, boys.
00:37:07We clean up.
00:37:08Here, here, here.
00:37:09Get that copy of the Morning Post out of here.
00:37:11Look here, Johnson.
00:37:12What do you mean by throwing things out of the window?
00:37:18Johnson, what do you mean by throwing things out of the window?
00:37:21What do you mean by throwing things out of the window?
00:37:23Who do you think you are?
00:37:24Who wants to know?
00:37:25You think that you and Walter Burns are running this town?
00:37:27Well, I'm going to send a bill to the Post tomorrow
00:37:29for all the wreckage that's been committed around here in the last year.
00:37:32Now, how do you like that?
00:37:33That's swell.
00:37:34You know what else you can do?
00:37:35What?
00:37:36Get it.
00:37:39If you stick your nose in this building tomorrow, I'll have you arrested.
00:37:42Well, that's almost worth staying for.
00:37:43And I'll tell you something else, and you can pass it on to Walter Burns.
00:37:46The Post get no tickets for this hanging on account of the lies that they've been printing.
00:37:49Well, listen, you pot roast.
00:37:50If I want to go to your hanging out, go, see, and I'll sit in a box.
00:37:53Oh, no, you won't.
00:37:54Oh, you'll have to tell half of what I know.
00:37:55You don't know anything.
00:37:56I have to know who occupied room 602 in a certain hotel the night before the last hanging.
00:38:02That hotel crack just doubled them up.
00:38:06Say, Sheriff.
00:38:07Just what hotel was that?
00:38:09For you, Sheriff.
00:38:15Sheriff Hoffman talking.
00:38:17Oh, hello, dear.
00:38:18It must be Irma.
00:38:20No, I can't come home.
00:38:22I got too many things to do.
00:38:24Getting ready for the hanging.
00:38:26Why don't you take him out to your house and hang him?
00:38:28I'll call you up later, Irma.
00:38:30It is Irma.
00:38:31I got to see an alienist.
00:38:33No, alienist.
00:38:36Not for me.
00:38:38For William.
00:38:39For William.
00:38:46Restroom.
00:38:47Who?
00:38:49Hey, Hildy.
00:38:50Your girl.
00:38:54Hello.
00:38:55Hello.
00:38:56Hello, Peggy.
00:38:57How are you, darlin'?
00:38:59Yay!
00:39:00Stayin' awake at it.
00:39:02How about my steak burger?
00:39:03Hamburger for me.
00:39:04I ordered one, didn't I?
00:39:05You did not.
00:39:06That's why I wasn't chillin'.
00:39:07Why, darling, what's the matter?
00:39:08I distinctly said gluten.
00:39:11Listen, darling, I just dropped in to say goodbye to the fellas.
00:39:13You remember I told you?
00:39:15Say, will you guys talk or something?
00:39:18Yes, I've got a taxi waiting.
00:39:20Hey!
00:39:21Go easy on that ketchup.
00:39:23I'm responsible for it.
00:39:25I've got the tickets right in my pocket.
00:39:28Now listen, dear, if you talk like that, I'm gonna go right out and jump in the lake.
00:39:30I swear I will because I can't stand it.
00:39:32Listen.
00:39:33We're listening.
00:39:34I love you.
00:39:36I said I love you.
00:39:37Oh, give him a break, Ernie.
00:39:39Well, that's more like it.
00:39:41You feel better now?
00:39:42Well, smile.
00:39:44Say something.
00:39:46You know what I want to hear.
00:39:47Tell me you love me.
00:39:48Come on, tell me you love me.
00:39:49I love me a lot and then we'll all go to sleep.
00:39:51That's the stuff.
00:39:53Yes?
00:39:54Listen, honey, will you wear that little blue straw hat?
00:39:56Wait a minute, I'll see.
00:39:57Well, are you happy now?
00:39:59Well, I bet you're not as happy as I am.
00:40:01Well, I bet you anything you want.
00:40:03All right, dear.
00:40:04Yeah.
00:40:05Five minutes.
00:40:06Bye-bye.
00:40:08Hildy, it's Warner again.
00:40:09Haven't they given us a rest yet?
00:40:11No.
00:40:14Hey, you're just making a nuisance out of yourself.
00:40:16What's the idea of calling up on the...
00:40:18What?
00:40:19No, I'm through with newspapers.
00:40:21I'm going to New York tonight, right now, this minute.
00:40:25No.
00:40:28Hey, what are you doing?
00:40:31Hey, Piggy!
00:40:33Stick that among your souvenirs.
00:40:34Hey, Hildy, you'll get us in an awful jam.
00:40:36The blog calls up again telling them to put it to writing.
00:40:38And Senator Hilderbrand Johnson,
00:40:40Waterbury Adams Corporation, 735 6th Avenue, New York City.
00:40:49Please, Sheriff.
00:40:51Please.
00:40:52Oh, excuse me, Professor.
00:40:54I ain't afraid of dying.
00:40:56I ain't afraid.
00:41:00Don't work too much the first day, kid.
00:41:02Goodbye, Johnson.
00:41:03Don't cross your line, Hildy,
00:41:04unless you know what Warner says.
00:41:06So long, Hildy.
00:41:07Be careful of that treacherous New York weather, Hildy.
00:41:09Don't fret.
00:41:10Don't forget to send us a postal card.
00:41:12Don't forget to drop in and see us
00:41:13if you ever come back, kid.
00:41:14Well, we'll see you again, Hildy.
00:41:15Writing in to Rolls-Royce.
00:41:17Giving our interviews on sex taxi.
00:41:27Now, we shall reenact the crime.
00:41:31Give you a gun, Sheriff.
00:41:33Yes, sir.
00:41:42Now, imagine that I am the policeman.
00:41:45You understand?
00:41:46I am the policeman.
00:41:48Now, where exactly did you stand?
00:41:52Show me.
00:42:04No.
00:42:05Hey, Hildy, I hope you got a return trip ticket.
00:42:08You'll be back next week.
00:42:11And then, what did you do?
00:42:16Dementia!
00:42:18Freecocks!
00:42:20Goodbye, you wage slaves.
00:42:22When you're calling a fire escape,
00:42:24getting kicked out of front doors,
00:42:26eating Christmas dinners in one-armed joints,
00:42:28don't forget your old pal, Hildy Johnson.
00:42:30As the road beyond unfolds!
00:42:39Where are you going?
00:42:40It's a jailbreak!
00:42:41Hey, it's a coffee!
00:42:42What's the matter?
00:42:43What's happened?
00:42:48Stop it!
00:42:49You're raping, will you?
00:42:51What's the case?
00:42:52I've been fired in the back!
00:42:53Who got away?
00:42:54Who was it?
00:42:55It was him!
00:42:56It was him!
00:42:57It was him!
00:42:58I can see it.
00:43:00Hurry!
00:43:01Hurry up!
00:43:02It's still boiling!
00:43:04Get it in!
00:43:05Get it, like, turn it back!
00:43:07Hey, turn it back!
00:43:08I don't know yet!
00:43:09Out!
00:43:10Williams just went over the wall.
00:43:11He was.
00:43:12Shut up.
00:43:18Quick!
00:43:22Hello, Walter?
00:43:23Hildy, hit me!
00:43:24Earl Williams just ran out of the Carnegie jail!
00:43:26Yes!
00:43:27Yes!
00:43:28Yes!
00:43:29Don't worry, Walter, I'm on the job right!
00:43:49Hey, it's a coffee!
00:43:52Five minutes talk with me and I'll get you 260 bucks!
00:43:56Bye!
00:44:12Endicott!
00:44:13No, no one knows where he got the gun.
00:44:15He ran up eight flights of stairs to the infirmary and got out through the skylight.
00:44:18He must have slid down the rain pipe to the street.
00:44:21Murphy, give me the dead.
00:44:22No, I tell you, no one knows where he got it.
00:44:24Call you back.
00:44:25No clue yet to Earl Williams' whereabouts.
00:44:28The crime commission is offering a $10,000 reward for the capture of Earl Williams.
00:44:31Call you back.
00:44:32Hello?
00:44:33Hello, here's a feature for you.
00:44:35Tear bomb.
00:44:36Yes, yes, tear bomb.
00:44:38Criminals cry for it.
00:44:39If the mayor wants me, he knows where I am.
00:44:42This bomb went off accidentally in the hands of Sheriff Hartman's bombing squad.
00:44:45What went off?
00:44:46The following deputy sheriffs were taken to the emergency hospital.
00:44:49To find out where the fringe you are.
00:44:51Let me take care of that.
00:44:52No, I've done for you.
00:44:53Herman Walsh died.
00:44:54And things like that in the paper.
00:44:55Sidney Mattsburg.
00:44:56That's right.
00:44:57And Danny Coon.
00:45:00Kruger calling.
00:45:01McHill, give me the dead.
00:45:03A man answering Williams' description was seen boarding a southbound Cottage Grove Avenue car by motorman Julius A. Lindberg.
00:45:10Side lights on a manhunt.
00:45:11Yeah, Lindberg.
00:45:12I thought it would make a swell feature on a guy with a name.
00:45:15This is Richard West Jr., age 55, scrub lady.
00:45:19While at work scrubbing the 8th floor of the Commerce Building was shot in the left leg by one of Sheriff Hartman's special deputies.
00:45:25I'll rush right after him.
00:45:30That was another scrub lady.
00:45:31And he don't get the hell he got out?
00:45:33All I can get is the sheriff to let him out so he can vote for him.
00:45:35What do you suppose would have been so good?
00:45:38Give me water for him, quick.
00:45:46Hello, water?
00:45:47Hildy.
00:45:48Hildy.
00:45:49I just got the whole story from Jacoby.
00:45:51Exclusive?
00:45:52Right, it's a piff.
00:45:53All he gets is to cost me 260 bucks, see?
00:45:55Don't waste time, give me the story.
00:45:57I'm telling you.
00:45:58First I had to give Jacoby all the money I had on me and it wasn't exactly mine and I want it back.
00:46:01How'd he get the gun?
00:46:02You hear what I said about the money?
00:46:03Yes, go on.
00:46:04All right, then.
00:46:06Boy, this is the jailbreak of your dreams.
00:46:08This profound figure from Vienna decided to make Williams reenact the crime.
00:46:12Well, well, well.
00:46:13Well, I'm coming to, will you shut up?
00:46:15Of course, he had to have a gun to reenact it with.
00:46:17And who do you suppose supplied it?
00:46:19Who?
00:46:20Peter B. Hartman.
00:46:21B for brain.
00:46:23No, I'm not kidding.
00:46:24The sheriff gave his gun to the professor, the professor gave it to Earl, and Earl shot the professor right in the belly.
00:46:29The professor's in the hospital, Williams has evaporated, and the sheriff's gone nuts.
00:46:32Ain't it perfect?
00:46:35Fine work, Hildy.
00:46:36Save the violence, I don't want that money.
00:46:37260 bucks.
00:46:39No, I tell you, I'm not going to cover anything else.
00:46:41I'm going away.
00:46:43Listen, that's the money I'm going to get married on.
00:46:46I just did this as a personal favor.
00:46:48I'm going to leave town tonight.
00:46:51Listen, I gave Jacoby every cent I had at...
00:46:54What?
00:46:55Well, all right, when would you send it over?
00:46:59Right away.
00:47:00Well, tell him to hurry, I'll wait for him here.
00:47:02Okay.
00:47:06Well, hello, Peggy.
00:47:09How are you, darling?
00:47:11What was that?
00:47:12Oh, I was just telling Walter I was through, that's all.
00:47:16You haven't done something foolish with our money.
00:47:18Oh, no, no.
00:47:19Then I think I'd better take care of it from now on.
00:47:21Oh, no, listen, sweetheart, everything's going to be perfectly all right.
00:47:25And you haven't got it?
00:47:26Well, no, not right now, but he's going to send it over.
00:47:28Walter, I mean, the boy will be here any minute.
00:47:31Oh, Hildy.
00:47:32Listen, honey, I wouldn't have had this happen for the world.
00:47:34Look, if this is what happened, I would...
00:47:36I know.
00:47:39Well, I can't tell you if you won't listen.
00:47:41I had to give Jacoby the money so he wouldn't give the story to the other papers.
00:47:45Every time I wanted you for something.
00:47:47My birthday.
00:47:48New Year's Eve when I waited up till five in the morning.
00:47:51Oh, I know, but a big story broke.
00:47:53It's always a big story.
00:47:56The biggest story in the world.
00:47:58And the next day everybody's forgotten it, even you.
00:48:00What do you mean forgotten?
00:48:01That was the Clara Hammond murder on your birthday.
00:48:03Oh, for heaven's sake, Peggy, it won't hurt to wait just a few minutes
00:48:06and the boy's on his way with the money now.
00:48:08Mother's downstairs in the taxi.
00:48:10I'm just ashamed to face her.
00:48:13If she knew about that money...
00:48:15It's all we've got in the world, Hill.
00:48:17We haven't even got a place to sleep except the train.
00:48:20Listen, honey, I'll tell you what we'll do.
00:48:22You and Mother go and have the baggage checked.
00:48:23There are the tickets.
00:48:26You mean you're not coming?
00:48:27Sure, I'm coming. I'll meet you at the information booth.
00:48:30It's all that Walter Burns.
00:48:33You simply can't resist it.
00:48:34Him, I wouldn't raise a finger if he was dying.
00:48:36McHugh talking.
00:48:38Oh, hello, Mac.
00:48:39Dear, this is Mr. McHugh.
00:48:40Mac!
00:48:41This is my girl.
00:48:42Pleased to meet you.
00:48:45Here's a feature of the manhunt that'll knock you right on your...
00:48:48Excuse me, miss.
00:48:51Wait a second, honey.
00:48:52Mrs. Phoebe DeWolf, 861.5 South Euclid Street, colored.
00:48:56Well, she became the mother of a piccaninny in a patrol wagon
00:48:59with Sheriff Hartman's rifle squad acting as nurses.
00:49:02Boy, you should have seen him, miss.
00:49:06Come on, dear, we've got a pair of things in the cab.
00:49:11Well, Phoebe was walking along the street when all of a sudden she began...
00:49:15Right.
00:49:17So they coaxed her into the patrol wagon and started a race with the store.
00:49:21When the piccaninny was born, the rifle squad examined him carefully
00:49:24to see if it was Earl Williams who they knew was hiding somewhere.
00:49:31They named the kid Peter Hartman DeWolf in honor of the sheriff.
00:49:36And they all pitched in a dollar apiece on account of it being
00:49:39the first baby ever born on a manhunt.
00:49:43Wait a minute. Here's the mayor himself.
00:49:45Maybe there's a statement.
00:49:46Don't fester me now, please. I have a lot on my mind.
00:49:49His Honor won't say anything.
00:49:50Have you seen Sheriff Hartman?
00:49:51No.
00:49:52What effect is this jailbreak going to have on the colored voters?
00:49:54Not an iota.
00:49:56In what way can a little boy from a misfortune of this sort
00:49:58influence the duty of every citizen, colored or otherwise?
00:50:05Your Honor, tell me, isn't there a red menacerie there?
00:50:09Hartman, I've been looking for you.
00:50:11So have we.
00:50:12What's it all, Pinky? Who engineered this getaway?
00:50:14Just a man, fellas. We got him located.
00:50:16Williams? Where?
00:50:17Where he used to live. The rifle squad just started now.
00:50:20You can catch him if you hurry.
00:50:23Hey! I want to talk to you.
00:50:25I ain't got time, Fred. Honest. I'll see you after.
00:50:28Hey!
00:50:29Did you actually give Williams that gun?
00:50:33Well, the professor asked me for it.
00:50:35I thought it was for something scientific.
00:50:37Oh, goodness gracious!
00:50:42Kruger calling.
00:50:45Here's a red-hot statement from the governor.
00:50:47The governor says the mayor and the sheriff have shown themselves
00:50:50to be a couple of eight-year-olds playing with fire.
00:50:53The quote must follow.
00:50:55It's a good thing for the city that next Tuesday is election day,
00:50:58as the citizens will thus be saved the expense of impeaching
00:51:01the mayor and the sheriff.
00:51:03That's all.
00:51:05Hi, Your Honor.
00:51:10Pete?
00:51:11I've got a mighty unpleasant task to perform.
00:51:13You're just going to get me rattled, Fred.
00:51:16More than 400 deputies.
00:51:18Do you want to bankrupt this administration?
00:51:20But I'm getting it for only $12 a night.
00:51:22$12 for those romantic couples of yours?
00:51:25Out there shooting up everybody they can see for the fun of it?
00:51:28But...
00:51:29Pete!
00:51:31Pete, you're through.
00:51:33Now, don't appear to my sense of mental, sir.
00:51:35I don't know what to say, Fred.
00:51:37A thing of this kind almost ruins a man's faith in human nature.
00:51:41Pete!
00:51:42And our families, Fred.
00:51:44I've always looked on Becky as my own sister.
00:51:47If there was any way out.
00:51:48But there is a way out.
00:51:50Just give me a couple hours, will you?
00:51:52Hello.
00:51:54400 shepherds.
00:51:55Nothing doing.
00:51:56This is a manhunt, not a banquet.
00:51:58That $12 covers everything.
00:52:01That gives you an idea of what I'm up against?
00:52:03We're up against a lot more than that.
00:52:05With that nutty slogan you invented.
00:52:07Reform the Reds with a rope.
00:52:11It's for me.
00:52:15I'm Sheriff Hartman. You looking for me?
00:52:17You certainly are a hard man to find.
00:52:20I've been...
00:52:21What do you want?
00:52:23I'm a messenger at the State House.
00:52:25This is from the Governor.
00:52:27What's from the Governor?
00:52:29The reprieve for Earl Williams.
00:52:31For whom?
00:52:32Earl Williams. The reprieve.
00:52:36And the Governor gave me his word of honor
00:52:38that he wouldn't interfere two days ago.
00:52:40And you fell for it.
00:52:42Pete, it frightens me what I'd like to do to you.
00:52:47He's gone.
00:52:56Was there anybody here for me?
00:52:57No, Mr. Johnson.
00:52:58Oh, that double-crossing louse.
00:52:59Everything will be all right.
00:53:01Now, don't worry.
00:53:02All we want to do is to answer your couple of questions.
00:53:05The trouble is nobody's using the right psychology of...
00:53:08You got $260?
00:53:09No, sir.
00:53:10But I got a way of making it.
00:53:12And more.
00:53:13Search and defend.
00:53:16What?
00:53:17Who is it that's been defending Williams?
00:53:19Hanging around.
00:53:20Oh, I ain't got time for that trip.
00:53:21I gotta get $260 in the next five minutes.
00:53:23Takes longer than five minutes to get it.
00:53:25I know where Williams is.
00:53:27Sure, he's out getting his head blown off with a rifle squad,
00:53:29but that don't get me my job.
00:53:30He's with that girl, Malinois.
00:53:32That's where...
00:53:33Oh, shut up!
00:53:34Remember, you'll never deliver this.
00:53:36You got caught in the traffic jam or something.
00:53:38Don't let anybody see you.
00:53:40Yeah, but how do I know?
00:53:41Come and see me at my office tomorrow.
00:53:44What is your name?
00:53:48Pengis.
00:53:49All right, Mr. Pengis.
00:53:50All you got to do is to lay low and keep your mouth shut.
00:53:54Here.
00:53:55You go at this address.
00:53:58It's a nice, homey little place,
00:54:00and you can get anything you want.
00:54:03Adam, Fred sent you.
00:54:06Okay, Fred.
00:54:18You imagine, wouldn't you?
00:54:19If it was this kind of morning, I'd have been a gentleman.
00:54:21I'd have asked Louis to shut the door.
00:54:23He sent him a lot of roses, didn't he?
00:54:24Yeah.
00:54:25Stick your roses.
00:54:26Come on, Louis, I'm in a hurry.
00:54:27I'll bet you I'm right.
00:54:28Oh, you?
00:54:29No, not you.
00:54:32Look what you're talking about.
00:54:33The note I sent you over here?
00:54:35Sure, in case you need anything.
00:54:37Yeah, I know, but it's 260 bucks.
00:54:38What's 260 bucks?
00:54:40The money I spent on the story.
00:54:41Warner promised to send it over, but I can't wait.
00:54:43So what?
00:54:44Listen, Louis, you almost got a lot of dough on you.
00:54:46Oh, so you want the premiere?
00:54:48Yeah.
00:54:49Well, I don't know.
00:54:50It's a lot of money, you know what I mean?
00:54:51Oh, Louis, my whole future depends on this.
00:54:52My girl's waiting at the table.
00:54:53I'm going to New York tonight.
00:54:54I've only got 15 minutes.
00:54:55If you help me out, miss, I swear that I'll...
00:54:56Look, look.
00:54:57Walter is going to give it to me.
00:54:58The works.
00:54:59He'll need my help for you to run out on him.
00:55:00Oh, no, he knows I'm going.
00:55:01I just did him a swell favor, and we're past again.
00:55:03Oh, yeah?
00:55:04Yeah.
00:55:05Well, I'll tell you what I'll do with you.
00:55:07I'm going to take him a chance.
00:55:08Oh, that's the stuff.
00:55:10I'll run up to where you get the water,
00:55:11and you can get the money for him.
00:55:12You're a white man, Louis.
00:55:13Tell you what I'll do.
00:55:15I'll give you 150 bucks for the death.
00:55:18Hey, wait a minute.
00:55:20That's taking advantage.
00:55:21Well, it's the best of what I can do.
00:55:24That was almost 100 bucks that way.
00:55:27That's 110, you loser.
00:55:29Hey, Louis.
00:55:30Give me 200, will you?
00:55:32150.
00:55:33All right, give me the dough.
00:55:37Hey, Louis.
00:55:40Hey, look.
00:55:41What he says on here.
00:55:42Well, you read what he says on there.
00:55:46Oh, shoo, that's right.
00:55:49Well, goodbye and good luck.
00:55:56Oh, I'm going to look you up in New York
00:55:59if there's anything wrong with this.
00:56:02You know what I mean?
00:56:0910, 20, 30, 40.
00:56:1110, 20, 25, 30, 30.
00:56:1410, 20.
00:56:15What?
00:56:16Oh, well, anyway, I get out of this place, I...
00:56:21After me.
00:56:22But search my...
00:56:23Put down the gun.
00:56:25It ain't loaded.
00:56:26I fired all the bullets already.
00:56:33I surrender.
00:56:34I couldn't hang off of the roof any longer.
00:56:37I ain't afraid to die.
00:56:39I was telling the fella that when he handed me the gun.
00:56:44He woke me up in the middle of the night.
00:56:46Talking to me about things they don't understand.
00:56:48Calling me a Bolshevik.
00:56:50I'm an anarchist.
00:56:52It's got nothing to do with bombs.
00:56:54It's the philosophy that guarantees every man freedom.
00:56:58All those poor people being crushed by the system.
00:57:01And the boys.
00:57:02The boys that were killed in the war.
00:57:04And in the slums.
00:57:06All of those slaves to a crust of bread.
00:57:09I can hear them crying.
00:57:11Shut up a second, will you?
00:57:12Go on.
00:57:13Take me back.
00:57:14Hang me.
00:57:15I got my back.
00:57:33Give me one of Burns.
00:57:34Quick.
00:57:35Yeah, right.
00:57:37Hello.
00:57:39Oh, hello, Peggy.
00:57:40Now listen, dear.
00:57:41Please, something terrific has happened.
00:57:42Don't start to phone me out now.
00:57:43Wait a minute, will you?
00:57:44Hello, Warner.
00:57:45Listen, Hildy.
00:57:46Come over here right away.
00:57:47Hold the line a minute.
00:57:48Now listen, Peggy.
00:57:49Please, now.
00:57:50I'm in an awful jam.
00:57:51Don't start to phone me out now.
00:57:52Please, honey.
00:57:53Wait a minute, will you?
00:57:54Warner, get this.
00:57:55I can only say this once.
00:57:56I just captured Earl Williams.
00:57:57Here in the fresh room.
00:57:58Yeah, honest.
00:57:59Hurry over here.
00:58:00I need you.
00:58:01Right.
00:58:02Hello, Peggy.
00:58:03Please.
00:58:04Listen, dear.
00:58:05This is the greatest thing that's ever happened.
00:58:06Wait till I tell you.
00:58:07I just captured Earl Williams.
00:58:08The murderer.
00:58:09Yeah, right.
00:58:10Wait a minute.
00:58:11Get out of here, Molly.
00:58:12They've got him surrounded someplace.
00:58:13But he's shooting like a dog.
00:58:14Get out of here, Molly.
00:58:15They're looking for you too, if you're smart.
00:58:16So get out of here.
00:58:17Tell me where they've gone.
00:58:18I ain't afraid of them, the yellow nuggets.
00:58:19Lincoln.
00:58:20Lincoln in first.
00:58:21Oh.
00:58:22Shh.
00:58:23Who is it?
00:58:24Me.
00:58:25I've got a clue.
00:58:26I'll be right with you, wooden shoes.
00:58:27Get back in there.
00:58:28What is it?
00:58:29A double front?
00:58:30I'm trying to save him.
00:58:31This is very important.
00:58:32Keep him quiet.
00:58:33Now that's a cop and I'll get rid of him.
00:58:35Hello, wooden shoes.
00:58:36You're for the roses, Molly.
00:58:37How did you get here?
00:58:38I came down the rain pipe.
00:58:39I didn't mean to shoot him.
00:58:40I don't know what happened.
00:58:41But you can't stay here.
00:58:42They'll get you.
00:58:43I don't care anymore.
00:58:44Well, you gotta hide.
00:58:45You rat.
00:58:46No.
00:58:47Don't do anything.
00:58:48I'm ready to go.
00:58:49I don't care.
00:58:50I'll get you.
00:58:51I'll get you.
00:58:52I'll get you.
00:58:53I'll get you.
00:58:54I'll get you.
00:58:55I'll get you.
00:58:56I'll get you.
00:58:57I'll get you.
00:58:58I'll get you.
00:58:59I'll get you.
00:59:00I'll get you.
00:59:01I'll get you.
00:59:02I'll get you.
00:59:03I don't care.
00:59:06It's better than die for a cause.
00:59:08And the way most people die, for no reason.
00:59:11Oh, you won't die.
00:59:13They'll never get you.
00:59:17I ain't important.
00:59:18It's humanity that's important.
00:59:20Like I told you, Molly.
00:59:22Humanity is a wonderful thing.
00:59:24No, it ain't.
00:59:26It's those dirty murderers.
00:59:28Look what they've done to you.
00:59:30And to me.
00:59:31And to me.
00:59:32And that's because they don't know any better.
00:59:34You're too good for them, that's why.
00:59:38You're...
00:59:39You're good too.
00:59:42Me?
00:59:43Yeah.
00:59:44I think you're wonderful.
00:59:47I wrote out a statement the day I left there with the warden.
00:59:52So that when I was dead, people would understand what I meant.
00:59:55There was a lot about you in it.
00:59:57I said you were the most beautiful character I ever met.
01:00:03Yeah?
01:00:04So this is the time for you to print my theory of crime prevention.
01:00:10Okay, you run along and line up for me.
01:00:11And hurry up, will ya?
01:00:14The fellows are coming.
01:00:15There's no place else.
01:00:18Shh.
01:00:19We'll have to go.
01:00:20Coming, Mike.
01:00:22We've got to get back in there.
01:00:23I've got an idea.
01:00:25Okay.
01:00:28What's going on in there?
01:00:29What could we do?
01:00:31It just happened.
01:00:33Open up in there, will ya?
01:00:34All right, all right.
01:00:36Come on, please.
01:00:37Don't bother me, I didn't mean it.
01:00:40Keep quiet, I don't need to breathe.
01:00:42Stay right here.
01:00:49Hey!
01:00:50What were you trying to do?
01:00:51Kick down the building?
01:00:52Kind of an experiment, you know.
01:00:53Molly!
01:00:54Oh, I beg your pardon.
01:00:56City desk.
01:00:57What's the idea of locking the door?
01:00:58Well, I was interviewing the desk.
01:01:00What was he doing there?
01:01:01With the boys.
01:01:02Oh, you fellas don't understand.
01:01:03You're still here?
01:01:04Boy, it's some Halloween going on out there.
01:01:06They've got the whole police department standing in the rear.
01:01:08Murphy called him.
01:01:09Him in the desk.
01:01:10Any news?
01:01:11I've never felt tired in my life.
01:01:13They surrounded the house, but Williams wasn't there.
01:01:15You know what's on William's head?
01:01:16Call your bank.
01:01:17Oh, what a change.
01:01:18Commissioner's present?
01:01:19Turner calling.
01:01:20I'm out with Sheriff Hoffman's deputies.
01:01:22Yeah, I'm at a drug store.
01:01:27Well, call me back if you don't believe me.
01:01:30Come on.
01:01:31Come on, operator.
01:01:32Fitzroy, 2-500.
01:01:36Molly, can't you flop somewhere else?
01:01:38Mmm.
01:01:39Smell.
01:01:40Mmm.
01:01:41Lordy floozy.
01:01:46Makes me passionate.
01:01:47Look out.
01:01:48She'll start following us.
01:01:49Why don't you let her alone?
01:01:50Say, when did you two get so chummy?
01:01:53Told us he was interviewing her.
01:01:55You back on the job again?
01:01:56Aye.
01:01:57Oh, Sarge.
01:01:58McHugh.
01:01:59Anything doing?
01:02:00He's still here.
01:02:01Trying to hang something on us, if you ask me.
01:02:03No, I'm waiting for Warner.
01:02:04He's about to send a guy over with some dough.
01:02:07Hey, this looks good.
01:02:08An old lady just phoned the detective bureau
01:02:10and claims Earl Williams is hiding under her piazza.
01:02:13Tell her to stand up.
01:02:16Just the same, fellas.
01:02:17That sounds like a pretty good tip.
01:02:18Shall we go out on it?
01:02:19Yeah.
01:02:20I'll cover this then for you.
01:02:22Don't let Stew anymore go out.
01:02:26Who pulled the shades down?
01:02:28Molly liked it that way.
01:02:30Hey, I got a hunch Williams ain't any place he's been looking from.
01:02:33He might be right here in this building.
01:02:34Sure.
01:02:35Hanging around like a duck in a shooting gallery, I suppose.
01:02:37Bright guy.
01:02:38Now, there's the skylight he got out of.
01:02:40But how could he get from there to the ground?
01:02:42I'm pretending to raid in here, Earl Williams.
01:02:45Look, he'd have jumped over to this roof.
01:02:46That's only about four feet.
01:02:48Yeah, once he got on this roof, he could slide down the rain pipe
01:02:51and come in any of the windows on this side.
01:02:53If the story's going to walk right in the window...
01:02:56Well, the mastermind's at work.
01:02:57Why don't you guys go home?
01:02:58Williams will probably call on you.
01:03:00Well, there must be something in what Ed says.
01:03:02Or they certainly have nabbed Williams by now.
01:03:04The whole city's inside out looking for him.
01:03:06Well, if he came in this building, it's as if he's still here.
01:03:09There hasn't been a chance for a fleet to get through those cops downstairs.
01:03:12Unless it's one that fell off of the sheriff.
01:03:16What's happened?
01:03:23Oh, you're still here, Johnson.
01:03:25I thought you were going to New York.
01:03:29Is this the only place you can find to sit in?
01:03:31This chair and this desk are my property.
01:03:33And I won't have anybody using it.
01:03:35Anybody.
01:03:36What are you looking for, Roy?
01:03:37I forgot my app.
01:03:38Oh, we don't want to get asked for it.
01:03:39It's Vampire Heart.
01:03:40It is, really?
01:03:41Yes.
01:03:42I've noticed palpitations every time I've taken some.
01:03:43What's the matter, Roy?
01:03:44You're sick?
01:03:45Sick.
01:03:46Say, if I haven't got the grip coming on, I missed my guess.
01:03:49Get some consuline.
01:03:51Consuline?
01:03:53Oh, it's great.
01:03:54I broke up my call in five minutes.
01:03:55Five minutes?
01:03:56Five minutes.
01:03:57Five minutes?
01:03:58Yep.
01:03:59What was the name?
01:04:00Consuline.
01:04:01C for caffeine, O for ox and N for nuts.
01:04:02Get the consuline.
01:04:03I know how to spell it.
01:04:04Any drugstore?
01:04:05Any drugstore.
01:04:06I'll get me some.
01:04:08Oh, that drinking cup.
01:04:11Hi.
01:04:12Which floor did you hear?
01:04:14My door.
01:04:16Hey, speaking about doors,
01:04:17there's a ten grand reward for that guy Williams.
01:04:19Let's get the cops and search the building.
01:04:21What do you say?
01:04:22Wouldn't it be funny if we found him right here in the building?
01:04:24Supposing he is here in the building.
01:04:26If the cops had grabbed the reward,
01:04:27we wouldn't get a smell.
01:04:28That's right.
01:04:29Listen.
01:04:30Let's all grab a floor.
01:04:31Whoever finds him, we'll split the reward.
01:04:33Let's go.
01:04:34Let's go.
01:04:35Let's go.
01:04:36Let's go.
01:04:37Let's go.
01:04:38Let's go.
01:04:39Let's go.
01:04:40Let's go.
01:04:41I'll stay here.
01:04:42I don't know about that.
01:04:43Get my sunset blown off.
01:04:45What else is there good for?
01:04:46Besides, he can't hurt anybody.
01:04:48Oh, come on, Mac.
01:04:53Well.
01:04:54Now, listen, mother.
01:04:55Don't you mother me.
01:04:56If you've got anything to say to yourself,
01:04:58after keeping us at that station all this time,
01:05:00you come downstairs and say it to Peggy.
01:05:02I'll be there in five minutes.
01:05:04No, sir.
01:05:05I don't move out of here without you.
01:05:07But I already told Peggy...
01:05:08I know. I got some gibberish about a murder.
01:05:11No, I don't care if you did catch him. You come with me this moment.
01:05:15I thought I knew something stuck around here.
01:05:17Who said he caught him?
01:05:18What do you mean you caught a murderer?
01:05:19I don't know what she's talking about. I didn't say anything of the kind.
01:05:21Yes, you did. You never told her that.
01:05:23I said I was trying to catch him. You see, Mother, you got it all balled up.
01:05:25What do you know about it? How do you know we didn't?
01:05:27Let's go!
01:05:28Hillary and she were here together.
01:05:29Yeah. She's the one that knows.
01:05:33What do you mean?
01:05:34Because she ain't left him.
01:05:36Where is Daryl Williams?
01:05:37How should I know?
01:05:38Where is he?
01:05:39Will you hold him out of it?
01:05:41Come clean before we knock it out of you.
01:05:42Are you talking to me?
01:05:43Who are you trying to cross?
01:05:44Wait! You stoopid. He doesn't know where Williams is.
01:05:49I'm the one that knows.
01:05:51What do you mean you know?
01:05:52Go find out, you heel.
01:05:54You don't think I'm going to tell?
01:05:56We'll make you.
01:05:57Let her alone, she's goofy.
01:05:59She ain't too goofy to know where Williams is.
01:06:05Look out!
01:06:06You ain't getting out of here.
01:06:10Now where is... Where are you hiding?
01:06:13I ain't going to squeal. I ain't going to.
01:06:15You better. Tell her we'll take it out of you.
01:06:17Want to have us call the cops and give you the boots?
01:06:19Come on, wouldn't you? Slap it out of her.
01:06:21Where is he?
01:06:22Before I hurt you.
01:06:23Don't you come near me, you kidney-butt.
01:06:25Keep away. Keep away from me.
01:06:28I'll knock your head down.
01:06:29Put down that chair.
01:06:30Get around. Get on the side of her.
01:06:31No, you don't.
01:06:33Don't you dare do that to me.
01:06:34I'll never tell. Never.
01:06:36Slap her.
01:06:41Carl, Carl, get a stretcher.
01:06:43Take me out of here.
01:06:47She's moving. She's alive.
01:06:49Stand back there. Don't touch her.
01:06:51Get the cops, wouldn't you?
01:06:52Come on, bud.
01:06:56Oh, gee, the poor kid.
01:07:02Walter, did you see that?
01:07:03Yes. Where is he?
01:07:04She jumped out the window.
01:07:05I know. Where is he, I said.
01:07:06Oh, anyway, she ain't dead.
01:07:08Come to, Hildy.
01:07:09What have you got, William?
01:07:10He's in the desk.
01:07:12Oh, the poor kid.
01:07:14Let me out. I can't stand it.
01:07:16Keep quiet. You're sitting pretty.
01:07:17What's the matter?
01:07:18Who's that?
01:07:19That's my girl's mother.
01:07:20What are you doing?
01:07:21Shut up.
01:07:22I won't shut up. That girl killed herself.
01:07:23Oh, you're doing something wrong.
01:07:24Locked in there.
01:07:25Louie, take this lady over to Bullock Mike's and lock her up.
01:07:27And see that she doesn't talk to anyone on the way.
01:07:29What's that? What's that?
01:07:30It's not the back way.
01:07:31Tell Mike it's a case of delirium treatment.
01:07:32Walter, this is going to get me in a terrible jam.
01:07:34Don't shoot. Anything you say, boss.
01:07:36Now, don't worry, mother.
01:07:37This is only temporary.
01:07:40Where do you think you're going?
01:07:41Now, go out and get my girl.
01:07:42Your girl?
01:07:43What are you, some killing college boy?
01:07:46In a time of war, you could be shot for what you're doing now for less.
01:07:48Oh, there's your story.
01:07:49Spread it all over the front page.
01:07:51Earl Wiggum's caught by the morning pope to take all the credit.
01:07:53I covered your story.
01:07:54They're covering it right.
01:07:55Now I'm getting out of here.
01:07:56Why, you drooling fathead, what do you mean a story?
01:07:58You've got the whole city by the seat of their pants.
01:07:59I know.
01:08:00You know.
01:08:01You've got the brain of a pancake.
01:08:02Listen to me.
01:08:03If I didn't have your interest at heart,
01:08:04would I be wasting time arguing with you now?
01:08:06You've done something big.
01:08:07You've got a new plan.
01:08:08What?
01:08:09I'm going to make Dutch monkeys out of those war dealers.
01:08:10There's nobody going to vote for them.
01:08:11Not even their wives.
01:08:12Expose them, huh?
01:08:13Crucify them.
01:08:14We're going to keep them undercover till morning
01:08:15so the pope can break the story exclusively.
01:08:16Then we'll let the governor and the captors
01:08:17share the glory with them.
01:08:18I see.
01:08:19I see.
01:08:20You've kicked over the whole city hall like an apple cart.
01:08:21You've got the mayor and Hartman backed against the wall.
01:08:23You've put one administration out and another one in.
01:08:25But this isn't a newspaper story.
01:08:26It's a career.
01:08:27And you stand there bellyaching about some girl.
01:08:29Well, yeah.
01:08:30I wasn't thinking about it that way, I guess.
01:08:31We'll be the white-haired boys, don't we?
01:08:33Why don't we name the streets after you?
01:08:35Johnson Street.
01:08:36You and I and the governor are going to run this town.
01:08:38I can't keep winning.
01:08:39Let's carry him over to my private office.
01:08:40Where's our telephone?
01:08:41That one.
01:08:42Right over there.
01:08:43How are you going to take him out there and see him?
01:08:44Not if he didn't find it.
01:08:45Let's go carry it over.
01:08:46Can't do that.
01:08:47There's more of them cops outside.
01:08:48We'll lure them out the way we'll pull him.
01:08:49Hilly.
01:08:50What?
01:08:51Snap into it.
01:08:52Hello.
01:08:53Give me Duffy.
01:08:54Hello.
01:08:55Can I call the man down on the main?
01:08:56Call him on the left side if you want.
01:08:57Duffy.
01:08:58How about the time you had to talk to him about the fireman?
01:08:59Give him the work.
01:09:00Hello, Duffy.
01:09:01Get set.
01:09:02We've got the biggest story in the world.
01:09:03Earl Williams caught for the post-exclusive.
01:09:05Send word down to Butch McGregor.
01:09:07I want 10 Huskies to lay him right over here.
01:09:09Restroom, Kimmel Court Building.
01:09:11Butch will get that desk out.
01:09:13Nothing's ever stopped those boys.
01:09:15Well, let's start shooting.
01:09:16Fine.
01:09:17Now listen, Duffy.
01:09:18I want you to tear out the whole front page.
01:09:20That's what I said.
01:09:21The whole front page.
01:09:22Out.
01:09:23Duncan's running the lead.
01:09:25Hilly.
01:09:26What the devil do you want?
01:09:29Hilly.
01:09:30Miss, you can't come in here.
01:09:32It's a Chinese earthquake.
01:09:33Wait a minute, Duffy.
01:09:34Now look here, little girl.
01:09:36You're doing this to him.
01:09:37He was going and you stopped him.
01:09:39Listen, dear.
01:09:40Something terrific has happened.
01:09:41I was going to tell you, but I couldn't.
01:09:42Tell her nothing.
01:09:43She's a woman, you fool.
01:09:44I'm not going to let you do it.
01:09:45You're coming right now.
01:09:46Holy jumping.
01:09:47Darling, this is the biggest chance of my life.
01:09:49Keep quiet.
01:09:50You don't want to marry me, that's all.
01:09:51That isn't true.
01:09:52Just because you won't listen to me,
01:09:53you're saying I don't love you.
01:09:54When you know I'd cut off my hands, boy,
01:09:55I'd do anything for you.
01:09:56Anything in the world.
01:09:57What, Duffy?
01:09:58What?
01:09:59Jump the League of Nations.
01:10:00Make it.
01:10:01You never intended to be decent
01:10:02and live like a human being.
01:10:03You were lying all the time.
01:10:04All right, dear.
01:10:05That's what you think.
01:10:06Except that, you're jumping.
01:10:07Try to concentrate.
01:10:08Oh, I see what you are now.
01:10:10Just to rob us.
01:10:11Right here.
01:10:12Shut up, will you?
01:10:13I'll leave the room to follow you along.
01:10:15That's human interest.
01:10:16You're just a heartless, selfish animal
01:10:18without any feelings.
01:10:19It's all your fault.
01:10:20And if you think I'm going to put up with it...
01:10:21Shut up, will you?
01:10:22Let me talk to him first.
01:10:23Shut up!
