How do you do? I suppose I have the honour
of addressing Dr Maxford, I presume?

:31:08
Right. And this is Don Hartman,
my announcer.

:31:11
Well, Mr Hartman,
it certainly is a pleasure to meet you.

:31:14
I've enjoyed your personality on the air.
:31:16
- Congratulations to you.
- Thank you.

:31:18
Here's the telegram,
Mr Maxford... Dr Maxford.

:31:21
Yes, yes, yes.
:31:22
Oh, yes. "Great pleasure in informing you...
$25,000.

:31:26
"Kindly call and pick up your cheque."
:31:29
Bildocker has a great sense of the dramatic.
:31:31
You aren't by any chance a coffee drinker,
are you?

:31:33
- Yes, I certainly am.
- That's surprising.

:31:36
Do you, by any chance, drink my coffee?
:31:38
- No, sir, you see, I...
- Yes, that sounds more natural.

:31:42
- But I could easily change.
- That won't be necessary.

:31:45
I wouldn't want anybody to think
I had any base commercial motives.

:31:49
I just give money away
because I can't sleep at night.

:31:52
- I have a guilty conscience.
- That's my slogan. The one I won with.

:31:55
- I guess you know all about that.
- A guilty conscience, eh?

:31:58
I can see that my money is well spent.
That's a great slogan.

:32:02
No, sir. "If you can't sleep at night,
it isn't the coffee, it's the bunk."

:32:06
- I beg your pardon?
- It's a pun.

:32:08
- It certainly is. It's great.
- Thank you.

:32:11
I can hardly wait to give you my money.
:32:16
Bring me that contest cheque.
:32:18
I don't know if you've ever had
anything like this happen to you,

:32:21
but to be poor and unknown one minute
and on top of the world the next,

:32:25
that's a feeling nobody can take from me.
:32:27
- Well, I...
- To know I won this contest

:32:29
because I thought up the best slogan
means more to me that anything on earth.

:32:33
- I'll tell you why.
- If you...

:32:35
I used to think maybe I had good ideas
and was gonna get somewhere,

:32:39
but now I know it, and that's what I want
to thank you for, more than the money.

:32:44
- Did you want the $25,000 one?
- That's right.

:32:47
- When they choose a winner?
- They didn't bother to inform me.

:32:51
James MacDonald. Is that Mac or Mc?
:32:54
It's Mac, sir.
:32:56
My, uh... My grandmother was Scottish.
:32:59
Mine was Lithuanian.
