:04:03
Come on, honey, tell me.
:04:05
It's Mrs. Upjohn.
:04:08
She's leaving.
:04:09
Oh, let her leave. Say, I have something
here worth 100 Upjohns.

:04:13
You don't understand.
I'm going to lose this place.

:04:15
No, you're not. That's what I'm trying
to tell you. From me to you, with love.

:04:20
Your radio contract. You've got it!
:04:25
"Gelding, out of Honey Lamb
by Blue Bolt...

:04:28
...two-year, Hi Hat."
:04:32
- Why, Gil, this doesn't make sense.
- It's a horse, honey, a racehorse.

:04:37
Perhaps I'm awfully stupid,
but what do we want with a horse?

:04:40
I'll tell you. Horse wins race,
owner wins money.

:04:42
Owner gives money to girl he loves.
Girl saves sanitarium. It's very simple.

:04:46
Very simple?
But what happens if horse loses race?

:04:49
Oh, but he can't lose. He's a wonder.
I picked him up for a song, only $ 1500.

:04:53
Fifteen hundred dollars?
:04:56
That's all the money
you had in the world.

:04:58
Well, I still have my job
singing at the casino.

:05:01
Now, Gil. You return that horse at once
and get your money back.

:05:04
You've got to go on
with your music.

:05:06
You need money fast, more than
I could make 10 years of singing.

:05:09
I don't care. I want you to be
a great singer, not a racetrack tout.

:05:14
Oh, wait a minute.
That isn't fair!

:05:16
- Are you going to return that horse?
- I can't. I just bought him.

:05:19
You mean you don't want to. You'd rather
bet on a horse than on yourself.

:05:23
- Of all the ungrateful people!
- What have I got to be grateful for?

:05:26
You've thrown your career away on a long
shot and gambled away our happiness.

:05:30
Here. Take your horse.
And I hope you're very happy with it.

:05:37
I'm going to someone who understands me,
to Dr. Hackenbush.

:05:39
Dr. Hackenbush? Why, I never heard
of him. Has he a sanitarium?

:05:42
The biggest in Florida, that's what he said.
Of course, I was never there.

:05:46
Hugo, I mean, Dr. Hackenbush,
always insisted on treating me in my home.

:05:51
I didn't know there was a thing
the matter with me until I met him.
