No. He didn't come up.
:43:40

What does he do?

He tells me he's got to go south
for a month. He's sick.

:44:18
What does that mean?
:44:20
There you are.
:44:22
He's got to go south.
:44:24
You can't do a play when you're south.
:44:26
But he's got to do it. lt was all settled.
:44:30
lt was talked over, but it wasn't really....
:44:34
You know. Unless you get it down
in that old black and white....

:44:39
Even then sometimes it's no good.
:44:41
We'll take it away from him.
There are other producers.

:44:45
The cheap crook.
:44:49
Sure. Baumann's no good.
:44:54
That's how he got where he is.
:44:58
But that's not the point. What does he do?
