I tried to find a slogan that implied
that Baxters was the finest of its class.

:26:03
Say... Not "The aristocrat of coffee".
That's been used too much.

:26:07
But, er... say, er...
:26:10
"The blue-blood coffee.
It's bred in the bean."

:26:14
See? As if every bean
in our coffee had a pedigree.

:26:18
"Baxter's Best. The blueblood coffee."
:26:21
- "It's bred in the bean."
- "It's bred in the bean."

:26:25
Wonderful. How about that one?
:26:28
The only trouble with it is
I didn't think of it myself.

:26:31
"It's bred in the bean."
I can see it all over the nation.

:26:35
In every nook and dell.
:26:37
Jimmy, you're a genius.
:26:40
Now that you're a capitalist, I don't know
how you feel about working for a living,

:26:44
but if you'd care to have an office...
:26:46
- You mean to myself?
- With his name on the door?

:26:49
Naturally. And this young lady
as your secretary.

:26:53
And a reasonable stipend
to be determined upon later.

:26:56
I see no reason
why we shouldn't shake hands on it now.

:26:59
- Go ahead, Jimmy.
- Gee whizz, Mr Baxter.

:27:02
I should say I would, and how I would!
:27:04
I suppose you'd like to have the afternoon off
while we get your office ready?

:27:08
I'd certainly appreciate it, Mr Baxter.
:27:11
- Can she come along too?
- Why of course she can!

:27:13
And a little bird tells me what kind of store
you're going to be visiting first.

:27:18
A little jewellery store, I'll wager, eh?
:27:22
I guess you're not far wrong.
:27:24
But first I think I'll go to Maxford House
and pick up that cheque.

:27:28
Oh, yes. We'd almost forgotten about that,
hadn't we?

:27:31
Almost but not quite.
:27:33
What was your Maxford House
slogan again?

:27:35
"It isn't the bunk, it's the coffee."
:27:37
No, no! "It isn't the coffee, it's the bunk."
:27:40
Isn't that marvellous?
:27:42
"If you don't sleep at night it isn't the, uh..."
:27:45
Yes, but, "It's bred in the bean."
:27:48
- That's the one for my money.
- Functional.

:27:51
- Precisely.
- Well, Mr Baxter, I thank you.

:27:55
I don't know what to say.
:27:58
Thank you, Mr Jenkins.
It'll be a pleasure working with you.
