:22:00
Well, we were rather expecting it
to come from you.
:22:04
- Me?
- Naturally.
:22:07
Excuse me, gentlemen.
There's nothing natural about that.
:22:16
Fire engine!
:22:24
Gee, that was a pip!
:22:26
We're gonna have one like that in
Mandrake Falls soon, with a siren too.
:22:31
Uh, where were we?
:22:32
You see, the opera is not conducted
like any ordinary business.
:22:35
- Why not?
- Because it just isn't a business.
:22:38
Maybe it isn't to you,
but it certainly is to me...
:22:41
if l have to make up a loss
of $180,000.
:22:45
If it's losing that much money,
there must be something wrong.
:22:47
Maybe you charge too much.
Maybe you're selling bad merchandise.
:22:51
A lot of things.
l don't know.
:22:53
You see, I expect to do
a lot of good with that money...
:22:56
and I can't afford to put it into
anything that l don't look into.
:22:59
That's my decision
for the time being, gentlemen.
:23:03
Good-bye, and thank you
for making me chairman.
:23:06
Gentlemen, you'll find the
smelling salts in the medicine chest.
:23:24
Sorry to keep you waiting.
:23:26
Those opera people are funny.
They wanted me to put up $180,000.
:23:31
- What about it, Mr. Deeds?
- l turned them down, naturally.
:23:34
- No, l mean about my client.
- Oh.
:23:37
We'll have to do something
about the common wife.
:23:39
- Tails tonight, sir?
- Tails?
:23:42
Why, that's a monkey suit.
:23:43
You want people to laugh at me?
I've never worn one of those in my life.
:23:47
Good-bye, and thank you, sir.
:23:49
Good-bye.
Wants me to wear a monkey suit.
:23:51
- We don't want to appear greedy.
- Huh?
:23:54
- l say, we don't want to appear greedy.
- Oh, that.
:23:58
- What are you doing?
- Assisting you, sir.
