00:00:00The End
00:01:30Hey, what's the idea?
00:01:59We were trying to do a full routine, and you stopped right in the middle.
00:02:03Listen, kids, I'm stuck.
00:02:04Maybe you can help me out.
00:02:05What rhymes with I love you?
00:02:08Your rent is due, and I want it.
00:02:11Listen, Mrs. Wilson, I'm about to finish your great composition.
00:02:15Now listen to me.
00:02:17I'm tired of all this stalling.
00:02:19I want...
00:02:20Came from up front.
00:02:21Who fired that shot?
00:02:22There's Sally.
00:02:23Sally, over here.
00:02:24Sally, here we start.
00:02:25That's it.
00:02:26That's it, Sally.
00:02:28That's it.
00:02:29That's it, Sally.
00:02:30That's it, Sally.
00:02:31Sally, over here.
00:02:32Sally, let's do it...
00:02:33Over here.
00:02:34Oh, that's it.
00:02:35There she is.
00:02:36She's got each other.
00:02:37Open that door!
00:02:38It's Simon Legree.
00:02:39Think, Louisa, think of something now.
00:02:40That's Sally.
00:02:41Get Sally.
00:02:42Keep on, Sally.
00:02:43Keep on, Sally.
00:02:44Open this door!
00:02:45How can they put a jail in...
00:02:46Can't the police get inside?
00:02:47They can't.
00:02:48Who?
00:02:49I don't know.
00:02:50They can't...
00:02:51Now, now, now, now.
00:02:52Yes, come on, now.
00:02:53What's the matter?
00:02:54Be quiet, Sally.
00:02:55It's okay.
00:02:56How can they, when they've got each other?
00:02:58Come on, open the door!
00:03:00Go ahead up here, please.
00:03:03Let me in!
00:03:04Get out of my way, I'll get in.
00:03:16Mrs. Wilson, I'm so sorry.
00:03:18It's all my fault.
00:03:20It's all my fault.
00:03:22It's all my fault.
00:03:23I should have been more careful.
00:03:26But now...
00:03:27...I'm found.
00:03:30I'm lost.
00:03:33I'm lost.
00:03:34I'm lost.
00:03:36I'm lost.
00:03:38I'm lost.
00:03:40Oh, that's the finish of our new act, and is it a riot?
00:03:57Yes, and you're causing a riot, and besides that, I heard a shot.
00:04:00A shot?
00:04:01Oh, yes, that's our revolver.
00:04:03We didn't know it was loaded.
00:04:04Yes, but I heard it twice.
00:04:06Sure.
00:04:07We had a fire twice to be sure that it wasn't loaded once.
00:04:10Are you sure that it's empty now?
00:04:13Oh, sure, sure.
00:04:14Oh, I heard a shot.
00:04:17Oh, listen, it was only a blank cartridge.
00:04:19You just got the wadding.
00:04:21The wadding, huh?
00:04:23I want you to quit making a shooting gallery out of my hotel.
00:04:26Yes, Mrs. Wilson.
00:04:32What's that?
00:04:33Oh, that?
00:04:34That's my partner.
00:04:35You know, that's another part of our act.
00:04:37Oink, oink.
00:04:39Oink.
00:04:40I see.
00:04:41Oink.
00:04:45Well, what was that?
00:04:47Oink, oink.
00:04:49Oink, oink.
00:04:51Oink, oink.
00:04:53Oink, oink.
00:04:55Oink, oink.
00:04:56Oh, he's painless.
00:04:57See you, Lizzie.
00:04:58Yeah, he's...
00:04:59Throw him a fish and shut him up.
00:05:01Or I will.
00:05:02No, you go.
00:05:03I'll keep him quiet.
00:05:04Oink, oink.
00:05:05Well, he's got to be quiet.
00:05:06Oink, oink, oink, oink.
00:05:08Hey, hey.
00:05:09Hey, hey.
00:05:10Rehearsal's over.
00:05:11I don't think she likes our act.
00:05:14It certainly looks fishy to me.
00:05:16What'd you do with the bucket?
00:05:17The bucket?
00:05:18Yes, the bucket.
00:05:19Well, I put her...
00:05:20You're keeping something undercover.
00:05:30Oink, oink.
00:05:31Oink.
00:05:35Oink.
00:05:40Oh.
00:05:41In heaven's name, what is that?
00:05:44Oh, that's a seagoing, carnivorous mammal.
00:05:47Oink.
00:05:48Oh, what?
00:05:49Just playing SEAL to you, Mrs. Wilson.
00:05:51Oh, whatever it is, get it out of here!
00:05:53Oh, but Mrs. Wilson, Sally is an artist,
00:05:55brought from the wilds of Oklahoma at terrific expense
00:05:57in order to make her New York debut at the Eldridge Theatre.
00:06:00I don't care if she makes her debut at the Metropolitan Opera House.
00:06:03I'll give you six o'clock to pack up her things and get out of here.
00:06:14Go to your rooms.
00:06:17Did he say the Eldridge Theater?
00:06:19Eldridge Theater? Why, that place is haunted.
00:06:21I wouldn't work in that spook trap for a thousand a week.
00:06:24Say, for a thousand a week, I'd play in a moss trap.
00:06:30Well, here we are.
00:06:32Goody, goody.
00:06:34Hey.
00:06:36Hey, they're opening next week.
00:06:37They must be in rehearsal.
00:06:38Yeah, it's a good thing we got here, huh?
00:06:40Are you sure you know the manager?
00:06:41Tell him.
00:06:42We're just like this.
00:06:44Well, I'll go in with you.
00:06:45No, no, wait a minute.
00:06:46You stay here because we want to set the stage and give Sally a grand entrance.
00:06:49Okay.
00:06:53Oh, it's the girl.
00:06:54It's the girl.
00:06:55It's the girl.
00:06:56It's the girl.
00:06:57It's the girl.
00:06:58It's the girl.
00:06:59It's the girl.
00:07:04Where is everybody?
00:07:05How should I know?
00:07:09What was that?
00:07:10Oh, that's a door.
00:07:12I knew it all the time.
00:07:17Hey, wait a minute.
00:07:18No, we've got to find this guy.
00:07:23Say, listen, are you kidding?
00:07:24Kidding? This is important business with me.
00:07:26This is my livelihood.
00:07:30I don't like the looks of this place.
00:07:31Let's get out of here.
00:07:32Well, we've got to find Eldridge.
00:07:33Can't we use the phone?
00:07:35Oh, shut up.
00:07:36There must be someone around here.
00:07:46Hello?
00:07:48Hello?
00:07:50Hello?
00:07:51Hello?
00:07:52Hello?
00:07:53Hello?
00:07:54Hello?
00:07:55Hello?
00:07:56Hello?
00:07:57Hello?
00:07:58Hello?
00:07:59Hello?
00:08:03Down there.
00:08:04Who was that?
00:08:05Why, that's you.
00:08:06But I'm down here.
00:08:07Of course you are.
00:08:09Then how did I get up there?
00:08:10That's your voice.
00:08:11That's an echo.
00:08:12But how did my voice get up there?
00:08:14Here, I'll show you.
00:08:24The king!
00:08:29Shh.
00:08:33You must be very quiet during the performance.
00:08:43Shh.
00:08:53Get down.
00:08:54Isn't he magnificent?
00:08:57Yeah.
00:08:58He's colossal.
00:08:59Yes.
00:09:00He's positively invisible.
00:09:01Bravo!
00:09:02Bravo!
00:09:04Has he finished?
00:09:05Yes.
00:09:06Just listen to that audience.
00:09:07They're going crazy!
00:09:09They're going crazy?
00:09:10Yes.
00:09:11Bravo!
00:09:12Bravo!
00:09:13Get down, Roger.
00:09:14Bravo!
00:09:15Come on, man.
00:09:19There ain't nobody here.
00:09:23Hold it.
00:09:24Hold it.
00:09:26Hold it!
00:09:28Hold it!
00:09:31Wait a minute.
00:09:32Wait a minute.
00:09:33Wait a minute here.
00:09:34Come on.
00:09:35Get up from there, will you?
00:09:36Is he demented?
00:09:37No.
00:09:38We're all right.
00:09:39Come on, Roger.
00:09:41Quiet.
00:09:42Quiet.
00:09:43Wait a minute.
00:09:44I'm all right.
00:09:45Why don't you be calm like me?
00:09:47Has he gone?
00:09:48Yeah.
00:09:50You know, for a moment I thought it was us.
00:09:53Wasn't it?
00:09:54Of course not.
00:09:56Oh.
00:10:03Hold it.
00:10:04What?
00:10:05I don't feel so good.
00:10:07I feel something coming over us.
00:10:09So do I.
00:10:23Ghost!
00:10:24Barricade that door.
00:10:26Get some furniture.
00:10:27Hurry up.
00:10:33Are you Mr. Eldridge?
00:10:34I'm not Mr. Eldridge.
00:10:35Don't tell me you're Mrs. Eldridge.
00:10:37I'm Mr. Bailey.
00:10:38Not Barnum and Bailey.
00:10:39Well, I've got the greatest thing that's...
00:10:40Wait a minute.
00:10:41Wait.
00:10:42I own this theater.
00:10:43I'm Miss Eldridge.
00:10:44We found an Eldridge.
00:10:45Why, Miss Eldridge, we traveled a thousand miles to see you.
00:10:47I have a letter of introduction here from a friend.
00:10:49That is, I did have...
00:10:51Hey, you got it.
00:10:54I got it.
00:10:55No.
00:10:56You got it.
00:10:57Wait a minute.
00:10:58I put it right in your vest pocket.
00:10:59Hey, wait a minute.
00:11:00You got it down here.
00:11:01I saw a little...
00:11:02No, it's over here.
00:11:03I put it in this pocket right down here.
00:11:05Hey, wait a minute.
00:11:06Down here.
00:11:07I put it down here.
00:11:08Give me that letter.
00:11:09There.
00:11:10I...
00:11:11Ah!
00:11:12Wait a minute.
00:11:13Give me it.
00:11:14Come on.
00:11:15Listen.
00:11:16Wait a minute.
00:11:17I know I put it in here.
00:11:18I told you I put it in there.
00:11:19Stop, will you?
00:11:21Give me the...
00:11:22Stop, will you?
00:11:23Stop, will you?
00:11:24Please stop.
00:11:25Maybe he's got it.
00:11:34Stop!
00:11:35This is no laughing matter.
00:11:37Never mind the letter.
00:11:38What do you want?
00:11:39We want to show you the eighth wonder of the world.
00:11:41And it's not on a postcard.
00:11:42No, in the flesh.
00:11:43Stupendous.
00:11:44Dynamic.
00:11:45Why, she's colossal.
00:11:46What?
00:11:47Seeing is believing.
00:11:48Yes, and we'll prove you.
00:11:49Come on, oldie.
00:11:50Let's go home.
00:11:51Wait here.
00:11:53Now do you understand why I want you to give up this theater?
00:11:55It's overrun with echoes and lunatics.
00:11:58Dad built this old theater.
00:12:00His whole life.
00:12:01I don't believe he'd want me to give it up.
00:12:03Probably not.
00:12:04He was a showman, not a businessman.
00:12:06Yet if he knew the trouble it would cause you,
00:12:08he'd want you to dispose of it.
00:12:10Somehow I think he'd rather have me keep it open.
00:12:12With the show.
00:12:13And you know, if I had a hit,
00:12:14I could pay back all the money I borrowed from you.
00:12:16A hit in this jinx house?
00:12:18Joan, let me try to get rid of the theater
00:12:20before you lose everything to your creditors.
00:12:22Think it over, my dear.
00:12:37Lady, you're now going to really hear something.
00:12:40Yes, ma'am.
00:12:41Presenting Sally, the only singing seal in captivity,
00:12:43born on Christmas Day.
00:12:45Yeah.
00:12:46She's a Christmas seal.
00:12:48Come on, now.
00:12:49Come on.
00:12:50Get over here.
00:12:52Now, do your stuff.
00:12:53Play it like it never played before.
00:12:57Me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
00:12:59La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
00:13:01Sally, please sing.
00:13:03Come on.
00:13:04Oh, Sally, this is your favorite tune.
00:13:05Come on.
00:13:10Sally, you can't let us down now.
00:13:12Just when we got a chance to get into a big show.
00:13:15Wait a minute, boys.
00:13:16You're wasting your time.
00:13:18I haven't done a show.
00:13:20What?
00:13:21I haven't done a show in this theater for two years.
00:13:23Yeah, but we saw a sign downstairs.
00:13:24What about those billboards outside?
00:13:26Those are the old Ramsey Taylor show.
00:13:28Oh, Ramsey Taylor.
00:13:30Hey, we know him well, don't we?
00:13:32We're just like brothers.
00:13:34Ramsey Taylor's dead.
00:13:35Dead?
00:13:36Certainly, don't you remember?
00:13:37He wrote and told us all about it.
00:13:40He was murdered two years ago during a dress rehearsal.
00:13:43Right in this room.
00:13:44On that very spot.
00:13:45Both.
00:13:47Come on, let's get out of here.
00:13:49No wonder Sally wouldn't sing in here.
00:13:59I'm sorry.
00:14:00Noises frighten me.
00:14:01Oh, for a boiler factory.
00:14:03What?
00:14:04I said I'm sorry noises frighten you.
00:14:07And I'm sorry I've wasted all your time.
00:14:09But I like the pretty noises you made on the piano.
00:14:11Well, then it wasn't a waste.
00:14:13I met you.
00:14:14You like my music.
00:14:16More noise?
00:14:17Have you more?
00:14:18A whole portfolio of noise.
00:14:20Practically bedlam.
00:14:21Give me bedlam.
00:14:30Hey, is this your car?
00:14:32No.
00:14:33Oh, the car.
00:14:34Oh, yeah, yeah, sure.
00:14:35Why, certainly it's our car.
00:14:36You don't suppose for one minute we'd be driving a car that doesn't belong to us, do you?
00:14:39Certainly it's our car.
00:14:40We've had the car for over 10 years.
00:14:42The little thing we whipped up ourselves.
00:14:43Don't you know enough not to park next to a fireplug?
00:14:46I'll get out of here before I give you a ticket.
00:14:48Yes, officer.
00:14:52Well, you heard what he said.
00:14:53Get out of here.
00:14:54Yeah, but I don't know how to drive a car.
00:14:58Well, you're going to learn fast.
00:15:17Oh, boy.
00:15:18I have a letter for you.
00:15:19Thanks.
00:15:20Well, that's swell.
00:15:21I want to go have a drink with you.
00:15:22Here.
00:15:23Come on.
00:15:25Come on, let's get up here.
00:15:26Yeah, thanks.
00:15:27You're welcome.
00:15:28Mamie.
00:15:29You know the tuna borders?
00:15:31Yes.
00:15:32They just came into a lot of money.
00:15:33How do you know that?
00:15:34I'm not a detective.
00:15:35I'm a lawyer.
00:15:36I'm not a liar.
00:15:37I'm a lawyer.
00:15:38I'm a lawyer.
00:15:39I've got a lawyer.
00:15:40I've got a lawyer.
00:15:41I've got a lawyer.
00:15:42I've got a lawyer.
00:15:43I've got a lawyer.
00:15:44I've got a lawyer.
00:15:45Well, you know, they dropped a letter,
00:15:46and I couldn't help but read it.
00:15:48How much did they get?
00:15:50I don't know.
00:15:51Well, we've got to find out.
00:15:59All right, come on, come on, what's the bad news?
00:16:01Say, listen.
00:16:02They've sold our filling station.
00:16:03How much?
00:16:04$150.
00:16:05We're rich, Ole, we're rich.
00:16:09We're rich.
00:16:10There, we're not finished.
00:16:11Shh.
00:16:12Yeah, but I finished.
00:16:14Hey.
00:16:17What's the matter now?
00:16:19You know, something seems to tell me we shouldn't have sold our business.
00:16:23Now we've got nothing.
00:16:24Shame on you.
00:16:25Shame on you.
00:16:26We're worth over a million dollars.
00:16:28A million dollars?
00:16:29Yes.
00:16:30You wouldn't take a half a million for your half a sally, would you?
00:16:32No.
00:16:33Neither would I.
00:16:34You're right.
00:16:35You're right.
00:16:36We're worth exactly one million, one hundred and fifty dollars.
00:16:40Seventeen cents.
00:16:43A million dollars.
00:16:47Girls.
00:16:48Girls, come quickly.
00:16:49I have something to tell you.
00:16:50A million dollars.
00:16:51A million dollars.
00:16:52A million.
00:16:53This old man's a knockout.
00:16:55Miss Ellen's just crazy about her.
00:16:56I was made to order for Sally.
00:16:58We'll make her a sensation overnight.
00:17:00I can see it now.
00:17:02Her name on Broadway.
00:17:04In lights.
00:17:05How big?
00:17:06That big.
00:17:07Now, what do you think we are?
00:17:08No.
00:17:09It's not big enough.
00:17:10All right, then.
00:17:11That big.
00:17:12It's more like it.
00:17:13What do you say, boys?
00:17:14Are you with us?
00:17:15Well, it sounds okay to me.
00:17:16Wait a minute.
00:17:17Wait a minute.
00:17:18Don't jump at collusions.
00:17:19Are you sure Sally's got the starring part?
00:17:22Why, the show was written around her.
00:17:25It's a water carnival.
00:17:27Now, fellas, I hate to...
00:17:29Come on.
00:17:30Speak up.
00:17:31We're with you.
00:17:32Yeah, come on.
00:17:33Don't be afraid.
00:17:34We're regular fellas.
00:17:35Well, you know, it'll take a little money.
00:17:36Oh, well.
00:17:37We got a little money.
00:17:38Sally, we're gamblers.
00:17:39We're sports.
00:17:40What do you think we are?
00:17:41We'll do anything for Sally.
00:17:42We'll put Sally over if it costs us every cent.
00:17:43Oh, it won't take that much.
00:17:45Besides, with you fellas in our organization,
00:17:47why, we can get unlimited credit.
00:17:49Brother, we're in.
00:17:50Oh, thanks.
00:17:51I'll run your phone, Miss Eldridge, right away.
00:17:52Yes, and I'll write along, too.
00:17:53What do you think of that?
00:17:54Oh, that's swell.
00:17:55Thanks.
00:17:56All right.
00:17:57You follow me.
00:18:01Hey, we're booked.
00:18:02We're booked.
00:18:03Let's tell Sally.
00:18:04Hey, Sally.
00:18:05Sally.
00:18:06Sally, you're going to be a star.
00:18:08Hey, wait a minute.
00:18:09Are you caught?
00:18:10No, my footage is.
00:18:11Come on.
00:18:12We got to go and phone.
00:18:38Good morning.
00:18:39Good morning.
00:18:40Come on in.
00:18:41Good morning.
00:18:42Good morning.
00:18:43Good morning.
00:18:44Good morning.
00:18:45Boys, I'm sorry you missed your routine.
00:18:46Oh, that's all right.
00:18:47We'll see it later.
00:18:48Just think, we're entertaining the press.
00:18:49Good.
00:18:50Yes, and we'd better get in there.
00:18:51They'll be getting restless.
00:18:52Don't worry about that.
00:18:53We've got a lot of business to do right now.
00:18:54Gentlemen.
00:18:55Morning.
00:18:56Good morning.
00:18:57May I have just a moment of your time?
00:18:58Hey, we've got nothing but time.
00:18:59Yeah, but have a seat.
00:19:00Come on.
00:19:01Come on.
00:19:02Come on.
00:19:03Come on.
00:19:04Come on.
00:19:05Come on.
00:19:06We've got nothing but time.
00:19:07Yeah, but hurry up.
00:19:08I'll tell you that right now.
00:19:09Why don't you just sign this order?
00:19:10Wait a minute.
00:19:11Let me do it.
00:19:12It's my turn.
00:19:13Why, you put two crosses.
00:19:15That's right.
00:19:16We've got twice as much coming today.
00:19:17Oh, boy.
00:19:18Boy, I rush.
00:19:19But, hey, listen.
00:19:20What's this for?
00:19:21Well, there's why.
00:19:22I'm going to fashion this after a copy of a gown worn by the Empress Josephine.
00:19:26Josephine?
00:19:27Yes.
00:19:28Now, to begin with, we're going to have absolutely no back.
00:19:31Bearing.
00:19:32Bearing, of course.
00:19:33Now, across the shoulders, we're going to have little baby pearls.
00:19:36Then the mother pearls, of course, will slowly descend to the...
00:19:40Now, the bodice.
00:19:41The bodice is going to be very snug.
00:19:44Now, to reveal the alluring curves of the feminine body,
00:19:48we're going to have some gold cloth, you see,
00:19:51sort of folding very beautifully into the very first flounce.
00:19:56Then, you see, we'll have the pleats.
00:19:59Now, we will have the pleats.
00:20:03We'll have pleats made of the black or possibly brown or blue
00:20:06if the satin cut on the bias.
00:20:08The what?
00:20:11Satin cut on the bias.
00:20:16That's very original, don't you think so?
00:20:20What's the matter with him?
00:20:22What is the bias?
00:20:23Explain to me.
00:20:24What's the bias?
00:20:26The bias is the material.
00:20:29Now, of course, I don't know just...
00:20:31I don't know just how many yards we'll...
00:20:35The bodice, of course, we'll take 12 yards.
00:20:37Then from the bodice down to the first flounce,
00:20:39we say it'll be 24.
00:20:40That'll be 24, 24.
00:20:41That'll be 35.
00:20:42That'll be 40, 42.
00:20:4442, 45.
00:20:4568!
00:20:46Screeno!
00:20:49I have never really been pleased in my life.
00:20:54Haven't you gone yet?
00:20:55Go on.
00:20:56Get going.
00:20:57Money is no object.
00:20:58I'm leaving everything to me, everything on my shoulders.
00:21:04What do you know about this, Bailey?
00:21:06I don't know any more about it than you do.
00:21:08You've been passing out my dough like it was peanuts.
00:21:11I invest 30,000 in here just because you're going to get me to the theater.
00:21:15And what happens?
00:21:16Here we are, rehearsing a note.
00:21:19What happens if the show makes a hit?
00:21:21So rich pays Roth those notes, and where do I stand?
00:21:23I'm so surprised you could knock me over with a feather.
00:21:25I could.
00:21:26They're not going to be so delicate.
00:21:28How are you, Mr. Bailey?
00:21:29How are you?
00:21:31Hey, is he tickled to see you?
00:21:33How are the two oil millionaires?
00:21:35Ah, marvelous, generous to a fault.
00:21:38Must be grand to be rich.
00:21:39I think you got something there.
00:21:41Oh, where's Miss Eldridge?
00:21:43Miss Eldridge?
00:21:44She's in the office entertaining the gentleman of the press.
00:21:47Bailey!
00:21:51What are those two guys doing here?
00:21:53They're here to meet those two millionaires.
00:21:56Gee, oldie.
00:21:57Wouldn't it be marvelous to be a millionaire?
00:22:00Ah, millionaire.
00:22:02To travel to all the ends of the world.
00:22:04Live at the Ritz.
00:22:05And have breakfast in bed.
00:22:07Breakfast in bed.
00:22:08Say, by the way, you owe me a half a dollar.
00:22:11Where is it?
00:22:12Oh, you're not going to forget that $0.50 I owe you, are you?
00:22:14Why should I forget it?
00:22:15You owe it to me, don't you?
00:22:16I got a little surprise for you.
00:22:17Yeah?
00:22:18See that spoon?
00:22:19Shame on you.
00:22:20You know you can go to penitentiary for stealing spoons?
00:22:23Hey, you know you can get a dollar for that at any pawn shop?
00:22:25Well, what's that got to do with it?
00:22:26You know you can get a dollar for that spoon at any pawn shop?
00:22:28Well, what's that got to do with the $0.50 you owe me?
00:22:30Oh, I owe you $0.50?
00:22:31Yeah.
00:22:32Here.
00:22:33Now you owe me $0.50.
00:22:34Yeah?
00:22:35Well, here.
00:22:36Now we're even.
00:22:39All right, boys.
00:22:40Enjoy yourselves.
00:22:41I'll be back in just a minute.
00:22:42OK.
00:22:43Mr. Bailey!
00:22:44Hello, Joan.
00:22:45Celebration?
00:22:46We're entertaining members of the press.
00:22:48Oh, I'm sorry, Joan.
00:22:49You know Pete Phillips.
00:22:50Why, yes.
00:22:51How do you do?
00:22:52Aren't you the gentleman who wanted to buy my theater?
00:22:54Yes.
00:22:55You haven't changed your mind, have you?
00:22:56I should say not.
00:22:57I have a hit on my hand.
00:22:58She hopes she has a hit.
00:22:59Make yourself at home, will you?
00:23:00Thank you, Joan.
00:23:01Now, wait a minute.
00:23:02Don't try to make a touch.
00:23:03We've got to make a hit with these millionaires.
00:23:04Don't worry, please.
00:23:05When I get through with them, they'll
00:23:06give me an oil well all for myself.
00:23:07Hey, wait a minute.
00:23:08Fix your tie.
00:23:09I'll fix your old tie.
00:23:10You ready?
00:23:11You ready?
00:23:12Yeah.
00:23:13Boys, the press want to meet the backers of the show.
00:23:16I'm for that.
00:23:17Sure.
00:23:19Gentlemen, we're going to drink a toast.
00:23:22Yeah.
00:23:23Let's drink to the petroleum twins.
00:23:25Chumps.
00:23:26Yeah.
00:23:27Tell them who the backers are for the spin on all this dough.
00:23:30Gentlemen, to the two men who've made all this possible,
00:23:33the backers of our show, Mr. Olsen and Mr. Johnson.
00:23:43Boys, you're gamblers.
00:23:44I hope you make a million.
00:23:45Yeah.
00:23:46Let's have another drink.
00:23:47I need it.
00:23:48No, no, listen.
00:23:49Wait, wait, wait.
00:23:50We've got to go out and get Sally a drink.
00:23:51Hey, listen.
00:23:52Wait a minute.
00:23:53You know, I like you fellas.
00:23:54You don't pretend to be anything but what you really are.
00:23:57Yeah.
00:23:58Especially if you ain't.
00:23:59Yeah.
00:24:00He's always clowning.
00:24:01Look now, but we're supposed to be the millionaires.
00:24:08Are we?
00:24:09We haven't got a say.
00:24:11Gee, I'm all confused.
00:24:13Yeah.
00:24:14They're all confused.
00:24:15Well, their word is as good as ours.
00:24:18Where are you going?
00:24:20I'm going back and stop them before they spend a million dollars we haven't got.
00:24:24Broke again.
00:24:25Oh.
00:24:29All right, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry.
00:24:32It's just started, folks.
00:24:33It's just commencing.
00:24:35The greatest show on the menu.
00:24:3732 spectacular attractions combined in one great show.
00:24:41Over here.
00:24:42Let me call your attention to the Wheatley sisters
00:24:44and their troupe of South Sea Island dancing girls.
00:24:47All right, come on.
00:24:48Get out of my way.
00:24:49Come on, Philip.
00:24:50Stop that fellow and clear out of here, everybody.
00:24:52As for you, your goose is cooked.
00:24:55What goose?
00:24:56Oh, now what?
00:24:58Well, Mr. Bailey.
00:25:01What's the matter?
00:25:02Plenty.
00:25:03Those men are impostors.
00:25:04Your two oil engineers have an oil can between them.
00:25:08Investigate it thoroughly.
00:25:09Olsen and Johnson own no oil property.
00:25:12Left Gusherville owing everybody.
00:25:14Tell it to the detective agency.
00:25:17I don't believe it.
00:25:18No, you don't.
00:25:19Come on, get out of here.
00:25:20Never mind.
00:25:21Get up.
00:25:22Get in there.
00:25:23What's the idea?
00:25:24There they are.
00:25:25Ask them.
00:25:26Why did you do this to me, boys?
00:25:27We never told anybody that we were millionaires.
00:25:29You see, Don said the show needed a little money.
00:25:32And we had a little money.
00:25:33Yes.
00:25:35How about that a little?
00:25:37Let's take it out of their hands.
00:25:39Wait a minute.
00:25:40Not their fault.
00:25:41It's ours.
00:25:42We're jumping at conclusions.
00:25:44Oh, stop this chatter.
00:25:46Throw those hams out of my theater.
00:25:48What business is it of yours?
00:25:50Because.
00:25:51I gave him the money you've been living on.
00:25:53Is this true?
00:25:54It is if he can prove it.
00:25:55But the theater's in my name, and I'm taking over.
00:25:57What?
00:25:58Come on, get out, everybody.
00:26:03I got you.
00:26:05OK.
00:26:06I'll be seeing you later, Bailey.
00:26:10You can't pay the money you owe me.
00:26:11So get these people off my property.
00:26:13And I thought you were my friend.
00:26:15I could kill you.
00:26:16No, I'd like to do it for you.
00:26:17Wait a minute, Don.
00:26:18Wait a minute.
00:26:19Let me do it.
00:26:20Let me do it.
00:26:21I'd like to do it once for you.
00:26:22I'll kill you myself.
00:26:23That's what I'll do.
00:26:24Can't do that to that woman.
00:26:25I'll take you.
00:26:26Strangle you to death.
00:26:27That's what I'll do you.
00:26:28Olly.
00:26:29Olly.
00:26:30Come on, Olly.
00:26:31Come on.
00:26:32Why, you.
00:26:33I'll murder the girl if you ever touch me.
00:26:34That's what I'll do.
00:26:35I'll kill her.
00:26:36That's what I'll do.
00:26:37Hey, why didn't you hit him?
00:26:40I'll do what you can.
00:26:41Girls, take those costumes right off.
00:26:42Immediately.
00:26:43You're all fired.
00:26:45Be careful with them, girls, too.
00:26:49Well, that's that.
00:26:51Close before we open.
00:26:53That ends it.
00:26:55We're through.
00:26:56Through nothing.
00:26:57We're just beginning.
00:26:58We'll open this show and pay that baboon off.
00:27:01Hey, everybody, wait.
00:27:03Come here and listen to me.
00:27:07Come here, everybody.
00:27:08Hurry up.
00:27:09This ape is trying to take your jobs away.
00:27:11We're closing on Miss Eldridge just because she owes him a few nickels.
00:27:14If you close the show now, you won't get a dime for your sets or costumes.
00:27:17Let's go on with it, and you'll get paid off in full.
00:27:20Suppose the show is a flop?
00:27:22Well, take a look at it.
00:27:23Give the girl a chance.
00:27:24Don't listen to him.
00:27:25You want to lose all your money?
00:27:26No, no, no.
00:27:28Well, we'll give her a chance.
00:27:30What do you say?
00:27:31It's all right with me.
00:27:32All right, then.
00:27:33We'll look at it.
00:27:34Come on, let's go.
00:27:37All right, everybody.
00:27:38Now, on your toes.
00:27:40This has got to be good.
00:27:42Place it.
00:27:45Joan, they're going to give us a chance.
00:27:47Now, we're not fired?
00:27:48Of course you're not fired.
00:27:49You're going to make this show a hit.
00:27:51Okay, get everything in place.
00:27:52Hurry up.
00:27:53You fellas are wasting your time.
00:27:55Well, it's our time.
00:27:56We can do with as we please, can't we?
00:27:57What are you talking about, wasting our time?
00:28:00All set?
00:28:01Yeah, all set.
00:28:02All right, folks.

00:29:08What's the idea of the hangover?
00:29:10Oh, you didn't get home last night, huh?
00:29:12I'm supposed to say that.
00:29:14No, why don't you say it?
00:29:16You're supposed to say it for me.
00:29:17Well, that's what I'm trying to do.
00:29:19Well, I'm the dummy.
00:29:20No one's disputing that.
00:29:22And if you're going to continue sitting on my knee,

00:29:30I'm not going to sit on your knee.
00:29:32I'm not going to sit on your knee.
00:29:34I'm not going to sit on your knee.

00:29:37I say you better change your tactics.
00:29:40I'll wear what I please.

00:30:20You will double cross me, won't you?
00:30:22You will double cross me, won't you?
00:30:29Hang on, just one more!
00:30:30Sally, the one and only singing seal.
00:30:40What do you think about it, Bailey?
00:30:58Bailey!
00:31:00Oh, let bygones be bygones.
00:31:05Bailey!
00:31:06Something's the matter.
00:31:08Bailey!
00:31:09What's the matter?
00:31:10Oh, I don't know.
00:31:12What's the matter now?
00:31:14There's been an accident.
00:31:15What happened to Bailey?
00:31:16He's been shot.
00:31:17Shot?
00:31:18Yes, and he's dead.
00:31:19Oh, he's been murdered.
00:31:22Look, oldie.
00:31:23We knocked him out of his seat.
00:31:25Quiet.
00:31:26All right, now stay back.
00:31:28That man's been shot.
00:31:30Shot?
00:31:33I'll bet I know who did it.
00:31:35Who?
00:31:36Sally.
00:31:37Sally?
00:31:38I just saw her beat it.
00:31:40She had a guilty look on her conscience.
00:31:42I know.
00:31:43You forgot to unload that gun again.
00:31:45Did I?
00:31:46Gun?
00:31:47Yes.
00:31:48We've got to get rid of that gun quick.
00:31:57Poor Sally.
00:32:11Oh!
00:32:13What's the matter?
00:32:14Oh, you didn't see what I saw.
00:32:18Hey, what are you doing?
00:32:20I'm putting the gun in the dish.
00:32:24Now remember, mum's the word, and keep your mouth shut.
00:32:27I'm going to get some sleep.
00:32:29There ain't no need of all getting head up here.
00:32:31There's been a murder committed, and the law demands payment.
00:32:34The killer is right here because all the exits except the safe door are locked from the inside.
00:32:40Now here we are, and here we'll stay until I finish my job, if it takes all winter.
00:32:45Now someone killed Bailey.
00:32:48Who did it?
00:32:51All right, speak up.
00:32:52Who did it?
00:32:53Where's the guilty one?
00:33:00If you don't talk, I'll be compelled to use sterner methods.
00:33:17Hey, you want to try it?
00:33:18Take my hand.
00:33:19What do you know about this?
00:33:21About what?
00:33:22The murder.
00:33:23Oh, well, you see...
00:33:24Hey, listen, officer, we don't know anything about this.
00:33:26Where were you when Bailey was shot?
00:33:28Shot?
00:33:29I thought they found him out in the alley with a knife in his hand.
00:33:33Who do you think poisoned him?
00:33:34I don't know.
00:33:35Who?
00:33:36Nobody.
00:33:37He hung himself.
00:33:38Yeah, but how do you know he hung himself?
00:33:39How do I know?
00:33:40Why, the gas jet was wide open.
00:33:42Well, was there much gas?
00:33:43Much gas?
00:33:44He was cut from ear to ear.
00:33:45Yeah, but did he bleed much?
00:33:46Every bone in his body was broke.
00:33:47He'd been in the water over 76 hours.
00:33:49Yeah, but was he dead?
00:33:50I don't know.
00:33:51He's on the phone letting me know in the morning.
00:33:53Personally, I think it was suicide.
00:33:55Suicide?
00:33:56Wait a minute.
00:33:57Don't forget that I know a few things, too.
00:33:59Yeah, well, I know as few as you do.
00:34:01Out of here.
00:34:02We're going to stay here all night until I find out who shot Bailey.
00:34:06Call me at 7, will you?
00:34:09You don't have to have a pair of pajamas on you.
00:34:12Yes.
00:34:13No.
00:34:14You've got to let me in.
00:34:15I've got to get in there.
00:34:16This is of grave importance.
00:34:20Inspector.
00:34:21Inspector.
00:34:22I don't know whether this means anything or not,
00:34:24but just before Bailey was killed, I was at the stage door.
00:34:27Yes, yes.
00:34:28Well, two men came in, and one of them had a machine gun.
00:34:32What did they look like?
00:34:33They were about this tall and had long red beards,
00:34:36and they flew way out over the audience.
00:34:39What?
00:34:40Why, what are you?
00:34:41Shh.
00:34:42Get down.
00:34:43Get down.
00:34:44Look at that.
00:34:45Come on.
00:34:46Come on.
00:34:47Come on.
00:34:48Come on.
00:34:52Stop.
00:34:53Stop.
00:34:54McGee, they think this is a joke.
00:34:57I'll lock them all up.
00:34:59It's up to us.
00:35:00Poor Sally.
00:35:02Hey, Keith, you can't do this.
00:35:04I don't want any more of your double talk.
00:35:05We want to confess.
00:35:06Confess?
00:35:07Sally did it.
00:35:08Sally?
00:35:09Who's Sally?
00:35:10She works for me.
00:35:11Oh, your girlfriend, eh?
00:35:13You've been keeping her undercover.
00:35:15What does she look like?
00:35:16Oh, she's got the most beautiful brown eyes
00:35:18and the smoothest skin you've ever saw.
00:35:21How tall is she?
00:35:23Oh, she's about that tall, sitting down, standing up.
00:35:27When we give her a fix, she comes up to there.
00:35:29She wouldn't by any chance have a long red beard down to there?
00:35:34No.
00:35:37But she's got whiskers like that.
00:35:40Say, are you trying to kid me?
00:35:43There might be something in what they say, Inspector.
00:35:45Sally's the seal in their act, and she did fire a gun.
00:35:48Where is it?
00:35:49I hid it.
00:35:50McGee, don't let anyone leave here.
00:35:52Aye.
00:35:53Take me to her.
00:35:59No, Sally.
00:36:00No.
00:36:02No, no.
00:36:03No.
00:36:04Oh.
00:36:05What is it now?
00:36:07Sally swallowed the evidence.
00:36:08Oh, she did, did she?
00:36:09Well, that isn't going to stop me.
00:36:11I'm going to take that seal to the hospital,
00:36:13and for your sake, boys, she better have the gun.
00:36:16And while we're there, I'm going to put you under observation, too.
00:36:19Hey, Murphy.
00:36:21Hey, Murphy.
00:36:23You're not going to let them operate on Sally, are you?
00:36:25Give us a break, won't you?
00:36:26Break?
00:36:27Yeah, look at that trusting face.
00:36:28Look at those innocent eyes.
00:36:30I tell you, I've got to find that gun.
00:36:32Oh, we'll find that gun for you.
00:36:33How?
00:36:34How?
00:36:35Leave it to us.
00:36:36Sally will give us anything she's got.
00:36:42Oh.
00:36:45Whoa!
00:36:46Oh!
00:36:47Whoa!
00:36:48Oh!
00:37:07Ah.
00:37:08Oh.
00:37:11Oh, I wonder what's become of Sally.
00:37:23He's gone for another ride.
00:37:29Oh, boy.
00:37:30Where's Inspector Murphy?
00:37:31He's coming.
00:37:37Why, Inspector Murphy.
00:37:39Oh, it isn't what you think it is.
00:37:41Those birds gave me the runaround.
00:37:42That seal didn't have any gun.
00:37:44Oh, we found the gun.
00:37:45You did?
00:37:46But it didn't kill Bailey.
00:37:47It wasn't the right caliber.
00:37:49Then I want to talk to that girl.
00:37:50Where is she?
00:37:51In the office with her boyfriend.
00:37:52I'll go to her.
00:37:55Uh-oh.
00:37:56This way.
00:38:01What are they doing?
00:38:02Let's find out.
00:38:04Just a moment.
00:38:05What's going on here?
00:38:06Nothing's going on.
00:38:07It's going off.
00:38:08We're shipping everything out of here.
00:38:09Oh, have a heart, old man.
00:38:10How do you expect us to put on a show
