00:00:07The End
00:00:37The End
00:01:19Dr. Reed, where's it, sir?
00:01:21I'm the first one here this morning, sir.
00:01:24Hmm.
00:01:37Here, what are you doing here?
00:01:43Oh, what time?
00:01:46What do you mean, Banks, sleeping in Mr. Addison's office?
00:01:50Get out of here.
00:01:54Imagine waking up and seeing you first thing in the morning.
00:02:02What a way to start a day.
00:02:05Banks?
00:02:05Now let me tell you something else.
00:02:07If you don't have some blankets and a pillow put in this office, I'm going to quit working here.
00:02:13Banks, you're a disgrace to the newspaper profession.
00:02:15It isn't a profession, it's a game.
00:02:19Now run along, because I don't want to play with you.
00:02:22The same thing after every payday, drunk and disorderly.
00:02:27You know, Hessel, you're not really as bad as you seem.
00:02:33Nobody could be that bad.
00:02:35Here, have a little drink.
00:02:37It might put new life in an old body.
00:02:40That'll cost you your job.
00:02:42Pahoy.
00:02:48I'll see that you're fired from this paper as soon as Mr. Addison arrives.
00:02:52Pahoy.
00:02:53Listen, Hessel, there are 1,790 newspapers in the United States.
00:02:58And I've only worked on 16 of them.
00:03:02Tomorrow, you'll be free to connect with your 17th.
00:03:04Yeah?
00:03:06Well, if the old man does fire me, I promise to come in your office and kiss you goodbye.
00:03:11But aren't you afraid that he might have you fired?
00:03:15That's a little scheme of mine to get you my job.
00:03:18But you've got to promise never to be late.
00:03:24Morning, pals.
00:03:26Hello.
00:03:27Hello, Steve.
00:03:28Aren't you a little early this morning?
00:03:30I was here first, except for Frank Merrillwell.
00:03:33Boy, is she raining.
00:03:36Well, either that or you've been taking a bath with your clothes on.
00:03:40What is it, sir?
00:03:42Watch your stuff.
00:03:44Boy, it sure ran out today.
00:03:46That makes the rumor official.
00:03:48Right.
00:03:48Hey, Squint, wait a minute.
00:03:50I'm paid to go up and down, not wait.
00:03:53Well, you ain't paid so much, you have to get technical about it.
00:03:56Here, this is full of java, and don't get any rain in it.
00:04:00Hey, what do I get for running all your errands?
00:04:03Didn't I give you two passes for her first sin last night?
00:04:06Yeah, it was a rotten show.
00:04:08Yeah, that's why I give you the passes.
00:04:10All right, that.
00:04:19Boy, I'm tired out myself.
00:04:21Up half the night with the baby.
00:04:23Whose baby?
00:04:24My wife's.
00:04:27There.
00:04:29What a day, what a day.
00:04:31Don't tell me it's raining outside.
00:04:33Even Noah never saw this much rain.
00:04:35Yeah, well, I think I'll drink a little of it for breakfast, and it won't be so much.
00:04:39Morning, Keith.
00:04:41What a day, what a day.
00:04:43And how?
00:04:45Do you know anything about this Ferretti gal and the dope they found in her apartment?
00:04:49Ferretti?
00:04:50Ferretti.
00:04:51Here's the story of the morning hallows by your wife.
00:04:54Looks like she beats a tiller.
00:04:57The Rose Ferretti, queen of the underworld, stood off the police department last night
00:05:01while she demolished the insides of her apartment on 340 on 1st Street.
00:05:04The arresting officer Thomas O'Reilly and her, she was under the influence of her.
00:05:08How cute.
00:05:09Why were you while all this was going on?
00:05:12I'm trying to remember.
00:05:14Let me see.
00:05:15I remember hearing that they were going to raid the Ferretti gal's apartment.
00:05:19And?
00:05:20So I went to Joe Reno's speakeasy.
00:05:23That geography don't make sense.
00:05:26Well, you see, I had a sneaking hunch that Reno knows more about this narcotic ring in his tilly.
00:05:32I remember having about four drinks of Reno's bar varnish, and I remember asking a lot of questions.
00:05:38Then I landed outside on my ear.
00:05:41What's Reno got to do with this Ferretti, kiddie?
00:05:43Now, that's what I didn't find out.
00:05:46Well, give me a rehash and make it snappy.
00:05:48All right.
00:05:50Say, I wonder if the district attorney knows anything about this racket.
00:05:57I think I'll wake him up and find out.
00:05:59Oh, good morning, Mr. Reno.
00:06:01Well, how are you?
00:06:03How's the restaurant business these days?
00:06:06Well, Hensel, the restaurant business is all right, but I'm thinking of taking my advertising out of the Express.
00:06:12One of your drunken reporters, a fellow by the name of Banks, came in my place last night and insulted
00:06:18Alderman Jungmeyer by asking him a lot of impertinent questions.
00:06:22He was also very insulting to me when I asked him to leave and made a lot of drunken threats.
00:06:28Oh, we've had several complaints about Banks.
00:06:31I'll see that he's fired at once.
00:06:33That's fine.
00:06:39That'll cool Banks off all right.
00:06:42Did Harris fall?
00:06:44No.
00:06:46Yes, I know, Mr. Muller, I'm awfully sorry I woke you up, but you're the district attorney, aren't you?
00:06:51And if you're the district attorney, you ought to know something about these narcotic deaths.
00:06:55Or maybe you're trying to hide something.
00:07:00Hey, you want to get an earful of what he's saying to that one?
00:07:03He's yelling like an opera singer.
00:07:07Why, Mr. Muller, I have never heard such language coming from a public official.
00:07:11You should be ashamed, Mr. Muller.
00:07:14Now let me tell you something else.
00:07:15I once knew a district attorney who was hung because he refused to give information to the newspaper.
00:07:23What's that?
00:07:24You'll have me fired.
00:07:26I'm afraid you're a little late.
00:07:27There's a couple of bids in ahead of yours.
00:07:32Well, I guess he doesn't know anything.
00:07:33I know something, Banks.
00:07:36You can down the cashier and get your money right now.
00:07:38Are you in again?
00:07:39What's the idea?
00:07:40The idea is that you've settled one of our big advertisers.
00:07:43And I've taken the responsibility of discharging him at once.
00:07:46That's a big responsibility.
00:07:47Now, wait a minute, Hansel.
00:07:49As long as I'm city editor, I'll hire and fire my own staff.
00:07:52There, you see, Smarty?
00:07:53He spends all his time fighting.
00:07:55Well, how about General Grant?
00:07:57I'm not warning you, Hansel.
00:07:59I'm telling you.
00:08:00Get out of my department and stay out.
00:08:02Don't hit him in the head, Art.
00:08:04You'll bust your knuckles.
00:08:07Some day I'll step on him and squash him.
00:08:09You know what I can't understand is how the cockroach exterminator ever missed that guy last time he was in
00:08:14the building.
00:08:16Well, I'll say one thing for you.
00:08:18You don't make my life a better rosy.
00:08:22Good morning, little loud speakings of newspaper lambs.
00:08:25Good morning.
00:08:27Good afternoon.
00:08:28I couldn't find a cat.
00:08:30You mean you couldn't find one to fit you.
00:08:33You know we're still getting out an afternoon newspaper even if it's raining.
00:08:38Imagine me giving advice to the love horn on a day like this.
00:08:42Now, Vera, you're not going to tell me it's raining outside.
00:08:45No.
00:08:46I sprinkle myself every morning.
00:08:50It keeps me fresh.
00:08:52Oh, is that what does it?
00:08:54You won't be so fresh when you find out what Fanny Claus left in the hall for you.
00:08:59Holy smoke.
00:09:00Not the wife.
00:09:01In person.
00:09:04Now, there's something to think about.
00:09:06It is if I know my women.
00:09:17Shut up.
00:09:21Good morning, dear.
00:09:24Well.
00:09:26Oh, is it raining outside?
00:09:29See, you and I are going to have a little talk.
00:09:31Why, certainly, dear.
00:09:32Shall we go inside?
00:09:33I can tell you all I've got to say, right here.
00:09:36Gee, that's a swell hat you've got on, dear.
00:09:38Is that a new one?
00:09:39Steve, let's come to the point.
00:09:40Why, what's the matter, dear?
00:09:41What have I done?
00:09:42Where were you last night?
00:09:44Where was I last night?
00:09:47I, uh, well, didn't you get my message?
00:09:50What message?
00:09:51Well, my message.
00:09:53I told Hoffman to call you and...
00:09:56Wait a minute, I'll get that guy out here.
00:09:58Never mind, I know where you were.
00:10:00You and Dick Thomas were probably having a drinking bout somewhere.
00:10:04Well, yes, we did have a couple, and...
00:10:05Where did drinking get him?
00:10:07There isn't a newspaper in this town that'll hire him back.
00:10:10And you're getting just like him.
00:10:12Well, now, Dick and I were working.
00:10:14We were working on that Peretti case.
00:10:18And by the way, dear, that was a swell story you had in the Morning Herald.
00:10:22So you were working on the Peretti case, dearie.
00:10:25Well, you weren't with the raiding party.
00:10:27You weren't at the jail when they brought her in.
00:10:30You must have covered that case by remote control.
00:10:33Now, there's more to that case than appears on the surface.
00:10:35You think so, do you?
00:10:36Well, where do you suppose she gets her dope?
00:10:37I suppose you know all about it.
00:10:39No, but I got a pretty good hunch.
00:10:40Oh.
00:10:42You're always having hunches about something.
00:10:44And now it's dope.
00:10:46Dope peddlers hiding under cradles.
00:10:49Mothers crying for it.
00:10:50Fathers yelling about it.
00:10:52With your wild imagination, you'll probably have me mixed up in this thing.
00:10:57All right, all right.
00:10:57But where do you suppose these narcotics get their laughing powder?
00:11:00From China?
00:11:00By carrier pigeon?
00:11:02The trouble with you is you get all your ideas out of a bottle.
00:11:06Don't you suppose it's a district attorney and the police department know what's going on?
00:11:10Oh, there are a lot of saps.
00:11:12Well, that isn't what I came here to talk about anyway.
00:11:15Well, I don't see why you should be sore at me.
00:11:18I'll tell you why.
00:11:20For two years, I've been trying to make a home for us.
00:11:23And last night, he was coming home to his favorite dish, liver and onions.
00:11:29I'll get Hoffman just a minute.
00:11:30He should have caught...
00:11:31And his faithful little wife sits like a dumbbell at 11 o'clock,
00:11:34entertaining herself with a plate of cold liver.
00:11:37Well, Marge, I tried to get word to you.
00:11:39I wouldn't say anything.
00:11:41It's been going on for two years, and I'm through this time.
00:11:44Well, now, Marge, you don't mean that.
00:11:47Why not?
00:11:48If I'm going to be a widow, I might as well make it official.
00:11:51But you know this newspaper game just as well as I do.
00:11:53I've got to make a living, ain't I?
00:11:55You're always blaming something besides yourself.
00:11:59You're always making promises and breaking them.
00:12:02And I'm always forgiving you.
00:12:05Oh, last night, I thought it all over.
00:12:07I said to myself,
00:12:10what's the use?
00:12:14Steve, I want a divorce.
00:12:19Well, good morning, good morning.
00:12:22I don't suppose you young married people see enough of each other evenings,
00:12:25but you have to be spooning in dark hallways in the morning.
00:12:31O'Neal!
00:12:32O'Neal!
00:12:33O'Neal!
00:12:35Say, where's O'Neal?
00:12:36Yes, sir.
00:12:37I want...
00:12:37Oh, how about that story?
00:12:39Where is it?
00:12:40I...
00:12:40Ah!
00:12:41Well, say,
00:12:43Miss Wilson here yet?
00:12:44Miss Wilson!
00:12:45Yes, sir.
00:12:45Miss Wilson!
00:12:46How about, uh,
00:12:48Hoover's Beach?
00:12:49Does the Senate ratify that Grimes bill?
00:12:51Say, who covered that Sibley fire?
00:12:53How about Banks?
00:12:54Did he get his story?
00:12:55Wasn't drunk again last night, was he?
00:12:57Well, when did this come in?
00:12:58Just now, sir.
00:12:59Oh.
00:12:59Miss Wilson!
00:13:00Miss Wilson!
00:13:01Yes, sir!
00:13:02Don't yell!
00:13:02Don't yell, doggone it!
00:13:03I'm not deaf!
00:13:04Take a note to Barclay.
00:13:05My dear Barclay,
00:13:06hereafter, I want the composing room
00:13:07kept opening an hour
00:13:08after we go to press.
00:13:09Your men are not allowed
00:13:10if I fail.
00:13:11You'll get me a proof on that
00:13:12just as quick as you can, will you?
00:13:13Yes, sir.
00:13:13Your men are not allowed
00:13:14to climb and have to jump
00:13:15at their clothes
00:13:15and run away
00:13:16every time they hear a bell ring.
00:13:23Well, Marge,
00:13:24I guess you're right.
00:13:26I guess you got it coming to you.
00:13:29There's no other man, is there?
00:13:31No, thanks.
00:13:31I think I'll pick
00:13:32the newspaper in for a while.
00:13:34Oh, that's all right.
00:13:37Oh, have you got a good lawyer?
00:13:39What difference does that make?
00:13:41Well, you don't have to get sore.
00:13:42I just happen to know a guy
00:13:44that's pretty good, that's all.
00:13:45There's no rush about that.
00:13:47I just wanted to let you know
00:13:48where I stood.
00:13:50Well, how about grounds?
00:13:51You got to have grounds.
00:13:53What's the matter
00:13:54with non-support?
00:13:55I wouldn't be telling
00:13:56any kids about that.
00:13:58How about mental cruelty?
00:14:01Mental cruelty?
00:14:02What do you think you like?
00:14:03What's the difference?
00:14:05All right, we'll make it mental cruel.
00:14:11Oh, I don't blame you, Marge.
00:14:13I guess I am kind of a bum at that.
00:14:16You're not really a bum.
00:14:18You're just irresponsible.
00:14:20You'd be one of the best
00:14:21newspaper men in this town
00:14:22if you'd only quit drinking.
00:14:25Maybe so.
00:14:26I was talking to Dr. McCoy yesterday.
00:14:28He said drinking is a mental habit.
00:14:30He says you actually get
00:14:31more stimulation out of tea.
00:14:33Yeah, and then you turn into a Chinaman
00:14:35and open a laundry.
00:14:36Watch this step.
00:14:41Oh, say, how about the laundry?
00:14:43I mean, my clothes and things.
00:14:45How am I going to get them?
00:14:46Oh, let me know when you're coming.
00:14:48I'll have them all packed for you.
00:14:50Oh, I'd rather not go up.
00:14:51Couldn't you send them to me?
00:14:53Yes, I can do that.
00:14:54I'll have the janitor bring them.
00:14:58Goodbye, Steve.
00:15:00So long, kid.
00:15:14The boss wants you.
00:15:16O'Neill?
00:15:16No, Mr. Edison.
00:15:18He's pretty sore about something.
00:15:20Do tell.
00:15:22Hensel's been in there with him.
00:15:24Oh.
00:15:29Well, well, well.
00:15:31Here comes the lion
00:15:33with the lamb's hair cut.
00:15:36My dear Miss Thumbtacks,
00:15:38my wife does not understand me.
00:15:40What shall I do?
00:15:41Reach for a lucky.
00:15:43You didn't start reaching soon enough.
00:15:45Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:15:46Hey, copy.
00:15:51You old chattel-tail.
00:15:53Hey, Vance, come in here and show us.
00:15:55We're not going to make a decision.
00:15:56I've got it to a raise.
00:15:57That are not founded on Vance.
00:15:59Hold on, boys.
00:16:00They're going around the curve.
00:16:02There's any way we're going to...
00:16:03Well, there's a people of the city.
00:16:05This editorial will be headed
00:16:06on the heading of Vance.
00:16:07Right in the mail,
00:16:08by the way.
00:16:14John, John, gas heaters.
00:16:16Oh, what are they trying to do?
00:16:17Freeze me to death in my own office?
00:16:20All right, good.
00:16:30Well, sir.
00:16:32Just fair.
00:16:33I beg your pardon?
00:16:34Accept it.
00:16:36Say, you'll have to talk louder.
00:16:37There's no way you've been here.
00:16:39Where were you last night?
00:16:42I'll bite.
00:16:42Where was I?
00:16:43What?
00:16:44Don't ask riddles.
00:16:45You bet you're on the griddle.
00:16:47You got drunk.
00:16:49You went to Reno's Cafe.
00:16:50You insulted all of them in Youngmayer.
00:16:51You two face between them
00:16:52when they asked you to leave.
00:16:53Say, what kind of a name
00:16:55you're trying to give this paper?
00:16:56You're trying to ruin our circulation?
00:16:57Do you want me to answer
00:16:58those all at once,
00:16:59or do you want separate answers?
00:17:01What's that?
00:17:01Oh, what difference does it make?
00:17:04I'm sick of this bum racket anyhow.
00:17:07It isn't even a racket.
00:17:08It's a disease
00:17:09that gets in your blood
00:17:10and rings out like an old mop.
00:17:13What are newspapers good for anyhow?
00:17:16Two-minute scandal
00:17:17for a lot of dumb Polaks
00:17:18that can't even read English.
00:17:20And what are they good for after that?
00:17:21Something to put under carpets,
00:17:23plugs for rat holes,
00:17:24wrapping paper for bootleggers,
00:17:26bed quilts for bums in the park,
00:17:28and a lot of other things.
00:17:31So, that's the way you feel about it,
00:17:33is it, you young whippersnapper?
00:17:34That's the way I feel about it,
00:17:35you old flapdoodle.
00:17:37Why, thanks, I...
00:17:40I used to think you had something in here,
00:17:42but I see I was mistaken.
00:17:45You're a quitter.
00:17:46You're a yeller.
00:17:48And worst of all,
00:17:49you're not even a good newspaper man.
00:17:52Who says I'm not?
00:17:53Throwing mud at the honorable
00:17:54profession of journalism.
00:17:55And why?
00:17:56Just because you fell down
00:17:58on a news story.
00:17:58You can't talk to me like that.
00:17:59I've forgotten more about news
00:18:01than you'll ever know.
00:18:02Send out on an assignment.
00:18:03And what happens?
00:18:05Drunk and disorderly
00:18:06in a cheap speaking thing.
00:18:07But where do you suppose
00:18:08news comes from?
00:18:08The old lady's home?
00:18:09Oh, Bob,
00:18:10your wife's a better newspaper man
00:18:11than you are.
00:18:12Why, you wrinkled old squash.
00:18:14I was after a real story
00:18:15last night,
00:18:16but it's just as well
00:18:17I didn't get it.
00:18:17You wouldn't dare print it
00:18:18if I had.
00:18:19You can't intimidate me.
00:18:21I'd print anything
00:18:22that found it on fact.
00:18:23You wouldn't know a fact
00:18:24if it walked in here
00:18:25and threw its arms around you.
00:18:26No.
00:18:27I know a good newspaper man
00:18:28when I see one.
00:18:29I'll show you
00:18:29who's a good newspaper man.
00:18:30I'll put a story
00:18:31on your desk someday
00:18:32that'll turn this town
00:18:33upside down.
00:18:34Ah, get out of here
00:18:35before I lose my temper.
00:18:36I'm a newspaper man, huh?
00:18:38Why, what are you talking about?
00:18:39You're an insult
00:18:40to the profession.
00:18:41Yes, I suppose so.
00:18:42Well, you can take this paper.
00:18:43I worked on better papers
00:18:43than this, you know.
00:18:44I don't have to sit around here.
00:18:44Why don't you talk to me like that?
00:18:46No, I don't have to talk to you like that.
00:18:47Get out of here.
00:18:48Who's winning?
00:18:49Daniel or the Lions?
00:18:53Can you eat those words,
00:18:55you old buzzard?
00:18:55Get out, you're fired.
00:18:57Don't you come back.
00:18:58What happened?
00:18:58You ought to quit the newspaper game
00:19:00and probably spread time stories
00:19:01for weak-minded children.
00:19:02What's up?
00:19:04Brilliant young reporter
00:19:06thrown out on ear.
00:19:07Wife and family destitute.
00:19:08Quiet.
00:19:09I believe that's what
00:19:10I understood him to say.
00:19:12That's the third time this month.
00:19:14Well, maybe I can catch it up again.
00:19:16Well, if you can do it
00:19:17this time,
00:19:17you'll get the first prize
00:19:18in cash work.
00:19:19O'Neil!
00:19:20Hang on.
00:19:20O'Neil!
00:19:21O'Neil!
00:19:22O'Neil!
00:19:27Hello, big boy.
00:19:28Hello, tiny.
00:19:29Hi, Joe.
00:19:30Hello, bright eyes.
00:19:31Hello, left foot.
00:19:32Say, Nick.
00:19:33Say, are you going to
00:19:34write up that 30 case?
00:19:35There is a rumor
00:19:36to the contrary.
00:19:37I want you to get
00:19:38my name spelled right.
00:19:39It's Ryan.
00:19:40R-Y-A-N.
00:19:42The herald here
00:19:42spells it O-Ryan
00:19:44and I'm kind of
00:19:45burned up upon it.
00:19:45Oh, what are a couple
00:19:46of O's among friends?
00:19:48Well, the O-Ryans
00:19:49are a lot of dizzy orange.
00:19:51I'm a cork man myself.
00:19:54Oopsie, saloon!
00:19:56It'll take a lot of torpedoes
00:19:58to sink you, big girl.
00:20:00Hey, I'll tell you
00:20:01a couple of my successor.
00:20:02He spells beautifully.
00:20:04Him?
00:20:05Thanks.
00:20:05Okay, left foot.
00:20:07Lay off the puppy.
00:20:09Okay, O-Ryan.
00:20:12Ryan.
00:20:14Someday, it'll be
00:20:15just too bad.
00:20:18Did you get the gate,
00:20:20see?
00:20:20Me?
00:20:21No.
00:20:21The place was just
00:20:22getting too crowded,
00:20:23so I quit to make
00:20:24more room for Vera.
00:20:25Well, it won't take much
00:20:26to fill the hole
00:20:27with you, Lee.
00:20:28Right.
00:20:29That's why I recommended
00:20:30Pell for my job.
00:20:31Yeah, well, if I had
00:20:32your job, I'd do more
00:20:33writing and less talking.
00:20:34There, I guess that
00:20:35puts me in my place,
00:20:36huh?
00:20:38Hey!
00:20:40Who's got my jackknife?
00:20:42Don't look at me.
00:20:43I gave it back to you.
00:20:45Oh.
00:20:46Can't lose this.
00:20:47This is a wedding present
00:20:48for my loving wife.
00:20:50You always are losing it
00:20:51when I'm just passing
00:20:51a ball and chain to it.
00:20:55Well, goodbye,
00:20:56little booker couple.
00:20:57I hope you'll miss me.
00:20:58I'll probably have spells.
00:21:01Listen,
00:21:02if you start to waste away,
00:21:04save me the slow motion
00:21:05movie rights, will you?
00:21:07Yeah.
00:21:09Well,
00:21:10so long, everybody.
00:21:11So long, Lee.
00:21:12Bye-bye.
00:21:13A long time before you
00:21:14get another newspaper man
00:21:15like me around here.
00:21:16I hope that's true.
00:21:18See, I hate to see him go.
00:21:20He's a good message, slob.
00:21:31Up.
00:21:34Hello, Dick.
00:21:37Well, what happened
00:21:38to you last night?
00:21:41It's the last time
00:21:43I'll ever sleep
00:21:44under that
00:21:45garibaldi statue.
00:21:48Why?
00:21:50Why do pigeons
00:21:52have to build
00:21:54their necks
00:21:54on statues?
00:21:58And why art
00:22:00thou so blue
00:22:01this lovely morning?
00:22:03I've got my troubles.
00:22:05Domestic
00:22:06or professional?
00:22:08Both.
00:22:09Good.
00:22:10Then there's nothing
00:22:12to interfere
00:22:12with art thinking.
00:22:14Oh, I don't blame Archie.
00:22:15I guess I am
00:22:16kind of a tramp.
00:22:18But that old
00:22:19dried-up alligator
00:22:19in there burns me up.
00:22:21Now keep
00:22:22the thought pure.
00:22:24He knows I could
00:22:25never quit
00:22:25newspapering,
00:22:26so the old crow
00:22:27cans me twice a month
00:22:29just to rub it in.
00:22:31Journalism
00:22:31is but a
00:22:32faceless
00:22:33trump.
00:22:35Bum newspaper man,
00:22:37am I?
00:22:37I'll throw a story
00:22:38in his face someday
00:22:39that'll make his ears
00:22:40rattle.
00:22:41Anger does not
00:22:42become thy
00:22:43placid brow.
00:22:44Well, do you blame
00:22:45me for being sore?
00:22:46In another couple
00:22:47of days,
00:22:47I'd have had Reno's
00:22:48mob all wrapped
00:22:49up and delivered.
00:22:50I have a noble
00:22:51idea.
00:22:52Well, let's hear it.
00:22:54If pleasure
00:22:55be thy vent,
00:22:56let us return
00:22:57to the scene
00:22:58of last night's
00:23:00rubble.
00:23:00But ain't it
00:23:01a little soon
00:23:01after what happened
00:23:02at Reno's yesterday?
00:23:03Oh, wreck not
00:23:05the dead
00:23:06yesterday.
00:23:08Wreck only
00:23:09the beautiful
00:23:10tomorrow.
00:23:11Well, I feel
00:23:12like wrecking
00:23:13something.
00:23:13Let's go.
00:23:15Let's
00:23:15away.
00:23:16Sweet Adoline,
00:23:19my Adoline,
00:23:21my Adoline,
00:23:22can't make it
00:23:23hard for you
00:23:25on the ground.
00:23:36Well, what are you
00:23:38going to do
00:23:38about this guy,
00:23:39Banks?
00:23:39I'm telling you,
00:23:40he's nothing to
00:23:40worry about.
00:23:41He's just a
00:23:42harmless drunk.
00:23:43He's smarter
00:23:43than you think
00:23:43he is.
00:23:44He's not so smart.
00:23:45I had him
00:23:46canned this
00:23:47morning.
00:23:47He said you
00:23:48know who he
00:23:49is.
00:23:49You're okay.
00:23:50Okay, Pete.
00:23:51You can't
00:23:52shut that guy
00:23:52up by canning
00:23:53him.
00:23:54What good
00:23:54is a newspaper
00:23:55man without
00:23:56a newspaper?
00:23:57We've got
00:23:57to think
00:23:57of ourselves,
00:23:58Joe.
00:23:58You ain't
00:23:59the only
00:23:59one in
00:23:59this racket.
00:24:00I'll handle
00:24:01this.
00:24:01You ain't
00:24:02going to let
00:24:02him come
00:24:02in here
00:24:02again,
00:24:03are you?
00:24:03Why not?
00:24:04He amuses me.
00:24:06That's where
00:24:07you fellows
00:24:07are all wrong.
00:24:08As my dear
00:24:09old grandmother
00:24:10used to say
00:24:11to me,
00:24:11you can catch
00:24:12more flies
00:24:13with honey
00:24:14than you can
00:24:15with vinegar.
00:24:16Yeah?
00:24:16You take my
00:24:17tip and you'll
00:24:18use a fly swatter.
00:24:20Listen,
00:24:22that loud mouth
00:24:22ready to start
00:24:23squawking,
00:24:24we'll all be
00:24:24getting our meals
00:24:25to iron bars.
00:24:27Be right
00:24:27with you.
00:24:28Now,
00:24:29if you were
00:24:29smart,
00:24:30little boy,
00:24:31you'd pay
00:24:31more attention
00:24:32to your
00:24:33grandmothers.
00:24:37That's all right.
00:24:39I'm going to
00:24:40take a rap
00:24:41for anything
00:24:41to do.
00:24:52Morning,
00:24:52Pete.
00:24:53Morning.
00:24:55Where is
00:24:55my bitter
00:24:56friend,
00:24:56Mr. Reno?
00:24:57Oh,
00:24:58he's out
00:24:58picking up
00:24:59the plates
00:24:59you threw
00:25:00at him
00:25:00last night.
00:25:01I do hope
00:25:02he isn't upset.
00:25:03Oh,
00:25:04no,
00:25:04he enjoyed it.
00:25:06It helps
00:25:06business.
00:25:08Need we
00:25:08delay
00:25:09further,
00:25:10my good man?
00:25:12No,
00:25:12you will have
00:25:13to wait
00:25:13till Joe
00:25:14comes back.
00:25:17Procrastination
00:25:17is the
00:25:19thief
00:25:19of thirst.
00:25:21As I
00:25:22was saying
00:25:22to George,
00:25:23I never
00:25:25seen a
00:25:25newspaper guy
00:25:26yet
00:25:26that wasn't
00:25:27a lousy
00:25:28back-biting
00:25:29yellow dog
00:25:30at heart.
00:25:32In the
00:25:32short time,
00:25:34the knuckle
00:25:35party
00:25:35was in
00:25:36full progress.
00:25:38I hope
00:25:39that neither
00:25:40you guys
00:25:40are newspaper men?
00:25:42No,
00:25:42indeed.
00:25:43Ex-newspapermen.
00:25:44I'm glad
00:25:45to hear it.
00:25:46I wouldn't
00:25:47want to hurt
00:25:47anybody's feelings.
00:25:49Oh,
00:25:49don't bother
00:25:49about us.
00:25:50So I
00:25:51says to him,
00:25:52all these
00:25:53newspaper guys
00:25:54are just a
00:25:55lot of
00:25:55no-good
00:25:56bums.
00:25:57Wasn't
00:25:58more spying
00:25:58than a
00:25:59jackrabbit.
00:26:01And you
00:26:02couldn't get
00:26:02one of them
00:26:03to fight
00:26:05if you
00:26:05spit in his
00:26:06eye.
00:26:07As I was
00:26:08saying,
00:26:08Deke,
00:26:09you take
00:26:09the fine,
00:26:10upstanding
00:26:11type of
00:26:11thug
00:26:12that peddles
00:26:13dope to
00:26:13schoolchildren
00:26:14and penny
00:26:15candy.
00:26:15Well,
00:26:15I once
00:26:16knew a
00:26:16newspaper guy
00:26:17that got
00:26:18drunk enough
00:26:18to talk
00:26:18nasty to
00:26:19a real
00:26:20man.
00:26:20There
00:26:21wasn't
00:26:21enough
00:26:22left of
00:26:22him to
00:26:23cremate
00:26:23decently.
00:26:25As I
00:26:26was saying
00:26:26when you
00:26:28were so
00:26:29politely
00:26:29interrupted,
00:26:31it's a
00:26:32shame to
00:26:33hang so
00:26:34many
00:26:34innocent
00:26:35murderers.
00:26:38Rat
00:26:39traps
00:26:39would be
00:26:40much
00:26:40cheaper.
00:26:41Just so.
00:26:42You know,
00:26:43I very
00:26:43recently heard
00:26:44of the
00:26:44sad case
00:26:45of two
00:26:45benevolent
00:26:46and persecuted
00:26:47hopslingers
00:26:48who were
00:26:49punished by
00:26:49being put
00:26:50in a barrel
00:26:51with a skunk.
00:26:52Fortunately,
00:26:53the skunk
00:26:53died.
00:26:55He was
00:26:56probably
00:26:57bored to
00:26:58death
00:26:58by their
00:26:59repartee.
00:27:01Well,
00:27:02well.
00:27:03This is
00:27:04an unexpected
00:27:05pleasure.
00:27:06Well,
00:27:07if it isn't
00:27:07our genial
00:27:08host.
00:27:10Next
00:27:11to my
00:27:11respectable
00:27:11restaurant?
00:27:12Of course
00:27:12not.
00:27:13Speakeasy's
00:27:14sacred
00:27:14and strange
00:27:15but that
00:27:16isn't why
00:27:16I came
00:27:17to see
00:27:17you.
00:27:17I suppose
00:27:18you wish
00:27:18to discuss
00:27:19your
00:27:19favorite
00:27:20topic.
00:27:20No credit?
00:27:21No.
00:27:22I'm afraid
00:27:23our friendly
00:27:23little war
00:27:24is over.
00:27:25You
00:27:26distressed
00:27:26me.
00:27:27What
00:27:27has
00:27:27happened?
00:27:28I'm

00:27:47I heard you

00:27:49newspaper man,
00:27:49too.
00:27:51I knew too much.
00:27:52It was beginning

00:27:53advertising.
00:27:54Oh,
00:27:55it's a pity.
00:27:55You know,

00:27:57for restaurants
00:27:59and
00:28:00speakeasies.

00:28:08the troubles.

00:28:10Terribly.
00:28:12Yeah,
00:28:12it's too bad
00:28:12to interrupt
00:28:13our little
00:28:13war.
00:28:14We were
00:28:14having such
00:28:15a good
00:28:15time,
00:28:16huh?
00:28:17I believe
00:28:17if you had
00:28:18your way,
00:28:19you'd make
00:28:19a criminal
00:28:20out of me
00:28:20in no
00:28:21time.
00:28:22Yep.
00:28:23In
00:28:24another
00:28:24couple of
00:28:24days that I
00:28:25had the
00:28:25goods on
00:28:25you,
00:28:26Joe.
00:28:26Really?
00:28:27What a pity
00:28:28to lose
00:28:29your job
00:28:29on a
00:28:30threshold
00:28:30of success.
00:28:32That
00:28:32Peretti
00:28:33girl's
00:28:33confession
00:28:34would have
00:28:34been a
00:28:34sensation.
00:28:38What
00:28:38was the
00:28:38name?
00:28:41Peretti.
00:28:45Rose
00:28:46Peretti.
00:28:47You know.
00:28:48Oh,
00:28:49yes.
00:28:50I believe
00:28:51I did
00:28:51read something
00:28:52about that
00:28:52in the
00:28:52paper.
00:28:56You're
00:28:56not trying
00:28:57to connect
00:28:57me with
00:28:57that,
00:28:58too.
00:29:00You
00:29:00should have
00:29:00read the
00:29:00confession
00:29:01I got

00:29:18it is if
00:29:18he sees it.
00:29:19He'll
00:29:19probably
00:29:19throw it

00:29:20wastebasket.
00:29:21It's
00:29:22a shame

00:36:35Steve,
00:36:36why didn't
00:36:37you hear
00:36:37what happened?
00:36:38Happened?
00:36:38I hope nothing
00:36:39has happened
00:36:39to see.
00:36:40Well,
00:36:40not as serious
00:36:41as that.
00:36:42He's just
00:36:42quit the newspaper
00:36:43business again
00:36:44for a change.
00:36:45The paper cut,
00:36:46you see?
00:36:47You know,
00:36:47you're a genius
00:36:48at this sort of
00:36:48thing,
00:36:48Mr. Hensel.
00:36:49Well,
00:36:50you know,
00:36:50I've been at this
00:36:51a very long time.
00:36:53Excuse me.
00:36:56Hello.
00:36:59Hensel speaking.
00:37:01The press room?
00:37:03Say,
00:37:03what's the idea
00:37:04of ringing me
00:37:04on an outside
00:37:05phone?
00:37:06What have we got
00:37:07our office
00:37:07phone for?
00:37:10Hello?
00:37:12Hello?
00:37:14Funny they'd
00:37:15call me
00:37:15on an outside
00:37:16wire.
00:37:16That is hard,
00:37:17isn't it?
00:37:18Well,
00:37:18the office phone
00:37:19must be out of order.
00:37:20Oh,
00:37:21just run your eye
00:37:21over that.
00:37:22I'll be back
00:37:22in a few minutes.
00:37:23Certainly.
00:37:23Don't hurry.
00:37:24I've got lots of time.
00:37:25I'll be back.
00:37:58And so last night, I decided that Steve and I had a part.
00:38:02Sure. I see your side of it.
00:38:05Naturally, it looks very much to me as though Steve didn't care anymore.
00:38:09Doesn't it look that way to you?
00:38:10Sure. I think you're doing the right thing.
00:38:13You don't think maybe I was a little hasty?
00:38:15Not at all. I think you're a glutton for punishment.
00:38:19I wouldn't hurt Steve for the world.
00:38:22Do you know where I can find him?
00:38:25He moves around too fast for me.
00:38:27He might as well try to find the lost car.
00:38:31Steve!
00:38:33What the?
00:38:38Oh, hello, Marge. I didn't expect to see you here.
00:38:41I came because I... I brought the suitcase.
00:38:45Oh, thanks. Get off.
00:38:47Say, is that fossilized old baboon in his office?
00:38:50Now, don't go in there, Steve. Where do you cool off?
00:38:52I want to see this baby while I'm red hot.
00:38:53Steve, you've been drinking. Please be careful.
00:38:57Well, what's that to you?
00:38:58We're all washed up, aren't we?
00:39:00Steve, don't be a step. Give me a chance.
00:39:02Hey, who's doing all this yelling out here?
00:39:05So, doggone you're back again, are you?
00:39:07Any happy return?
00:39:08Steve!
00:39:10You're... you're drunk!
00:39:11Now, you'll think I'm drunk by the time I get through.
00:39:13You're getting into that office.
00:39:14So, I'm a bum reporter, am I?
00:39:16You can't scare me.
00:39:17I'm a rotten newspaper man, am I?
00:39:19You can't work here anymore.
00:39:20Who wants to work in this dump?
00:39:21I got a story here that's going to turn this town upside down.
00:39:24Ah, you haven't got any story. You're drunk again.
00:39:27Yeah, punch drunk.
00:39:28I met a couple of Reno's men outside.
00:39:30Say, you can think of more alibis than any souse I ever met.
00:39:33Yeah, well, what do you think about this, doggone you?
00:39:36What is it?
00:39:36It's a confession from Rose Peretti.
00:39:38A confession?
00:39:39A confession?
00:39:40Where'd you get it?
00:39:41Oh, who wrote this?
00:39:43Well, what do you know?
00:39:44Now, there's a story there that'll make your hair curl.
00:39:46It involves Reno and this whole rotten gang.
00:39:49And it doesn't stop there, either.
00:39:51Oh, what a story, what a story.
00:39:53Banks always knew you had it in here.
00:39:55Wait till I publish this.
00:39:57You're not going to publish it.
00:39:58Oh, now, Banks, don't talk like that.
00:40:01I'm not working for you anymore. You fired me.
00:40:03Now, give me an extra question, doggone you, before I lose myself.
00:40:05You'll try and get it.
00:40:06I scooped the whole town on this story on my own time.
00:40:08And I'm going to have it published, too.
00:40:09But not in your punk sheet, I'm going to sell this to a decent newspaper.
00:40:13Say, wait a minute.
00:40:15Say, look here.
00:40:16Look, wait a minute.
00:40:16I'm going to give you a $10 raise.
00:40:18I'll make an all run on the cashier right now.
00:40:20Make it $25.
00:40:22Say, doggone you, you ruined me.
00:40:24I'm not made of money.
00:40:25All right, I'll see you later.
00:40:26I'm running right over to the Herald office.
00:40:27Oh, wait a minute.
00:40:28Wait a minute, don't go.
00:40:30Don't go.
00:40:30I'll give him a doggone outrage.
00:40:35There.
00:40:35Now give me that confession.
00:40:37I suppose I'm still a fun newspaper man?
00:40:39Who said you were?
00:40:40I did, but you're going to take it back right now.
00:40:41You're the best newspaper man in this town.
00:40:43The trouble with me is I talk too darn much.
00:40:46Now give me that confession.
00:40:47Well, it's all right this time, but don't you ever let it happen again.
00:40:49No, here, Steve, go out and get yourself a clean shirt.
00:40:51You look like a bum.
00:40:52All right.
00:40:53And hurry on back.
00:40:53We've got a lot of work to do.
00:40:55Say, I think I'll go out this other way.
00:40:56Those tugs of Reno's might still feel playful.
00:41:00Hey, another thing.
00:41:01Don't you get drunk?
00:41:02No, not too drunk.
00:41:03If you come back here, drunk, you're fired.
00:41:06Hello.
00:41:09Yes.
00:41:10Confession of a pretty girl exposed his big dope ring.
00:41:14Hey, Steve.
00:41:15Say, what's the district attorney's number?
00:41:17Hempstead, 3,000.
00:41:19All right.
00:41:19Get out of here.
00:41:20Hello.
00:41:20Hempstead, 3,000.
00:41:22Yes.
00:41:22Hurry, hurry.
00:41:24Hello.
00:41:25Hello.
00:41:27Well, are they still at it?
00:41:29He's been in there a long time.
00:41:30Do you think everything's all right?
00:41:32Well, they've quit yelling at each other.
00:41:34That's something.
00:41:35I never saw Steve so violent.
00:41:38And I feel maybe that I'm responsible.
00:41:40Oh, he'll be all right as soon as he gets it out of his system.
00:41:43They're too quiet all of a sudden, it's just me.
00:41:47Supposing you've just put your head in the door, huh?
00:41:50Not me, lady.
00:41:52Not me.
00:41:53I know those birds too well to interfere in their family quarrels.
00:41:57They have these fights about twice a week just to prove they're not effeminate.
00:42:00But they always wind up in each other's arms singing Mother McCree.
00:42:04Even so, I can't help worrying about Steve.
00:42:08He's such a kid.
00:42:10You know, Margie, I think you were Miss Cass.
00:42:13You should have been his mother.
00:42:25Back so soon?
00:42:26Well, I've been all over this building trying to find out who called me on the phone.
00:42:29Nobody seems to know anything about it.
00:42:31Probably someone just kidding.
00:42:33Well, if I find out who it was, I'll teach him a lesson.
00:42:35I won't have any jokers about this office.
00:42:39Well, you got any ideas?
00:42:43Say, I wonder...
00:42:45I don't understand.
00:42:47A strange thing happened.
00:42:49This fellow, Banks, is quite a practical joker, isn't he?
00:42:53He's worse than that.
00:42:54Why?
00:42:55Oh, no reason.
00:42:58I just thought perhaps he might have called you on the phone.
00:43:00I saw him come out of Addison's office just before you returned.
00:43:04Well, I can't imagine him being in there.
00:43:06I assure you, he was fired this morning.
00:43:08They were having a violent argument, and Banks used a lot of cuss words.
00:43:12It was very threatening.
00:43:14But he's that way with everybody.
00:43:15In fact, he threatened me again when he came out of the office.
00:43:19Well, I'm going to put it up.
00:43:20Oh, don't bother.
00:43:21I realized he'd been drinking.
00:43:23Well, he must be kept out of here.
00:43:25I want to tell you just what Banks said to you.
00:43:27Oh, some other time.
00:43:28It's nothing.
00:43:28Let's go over the copy.
00:43:30I, uh, I just remember an appointment.
00:43:33Hmm, as you like.
00:43:34I want you to know how I feel.
00:43:36I understand perfectly.
00:43:38Now about the border.
00:43:43He doesn't look very happy.
00:43:45He's probably had his name spelled wrong again.
00:43:47There's somebody in this joint that thinks they're funny.
00:43:50It's a funny business, big boy.
00:43:52Right down, houseboat.
00:43:54Listen, Irish.
00:43:54Irish, if you don't keep them principal pushers of yours under control, I'm going to start something.
00:44:01What's the matter?
00:44:05Look at that.
00:44:07Is that funny?
00:44:11What do you call that?
00:44:13It's concrete.
00:44:15Shut up.
00:44:18This knife came from one of those windows and hit me right on the conch.
00:44:22Did it bend the blade?
00:44:25Did she do it?
00:44:26Not me.
00:44:27I always get my man.
00:44:30Some day.
00:44:32Now listen, Irish.
00:44:33I'm a cop.
00:44:34I ain't no target.
00:44:36Let me see that knife.
00:44:40That's funny that it's a Steve's knife.
00:44:43So that's how it was, eh?
00:44:45Where is he?
00:44:47He's inside.
00:44:48But he wouldn't throw a knife at you, Ryan.
00:44:56Well, I'll wait for him.
00:44:58And you'd better get prepared to be a widow.
00:45:02Fun is fun and all that.
00:45:03Just kidding and calling me names is bad enough.
00:45:06But when it comes to throwing knives at officers, that ain't going to be funny this season.
00:45:11You know, I've been on this course for 25 years.
00:45:18What happened, Jack?
00:45:19You want to explain it?
00:45:20Yeah, get her over to the window.
00:45:22Get back, have we got some water.
00:45:24Open up that window.
00:45:25What happened?
00:45:26You figure it out.
