1:01:04
Congratulations, Mr Governor McGinty.
1:01:07
Thanks.
1:01:09
You don't look as happy as you should.
1:01:11
- Don't you feel good?
- I feel all right.

1:01:14
You should feel all right
1:01:16
with this staring you in the face.
1:01:18
Ah, what a wonderful opportunity.
1:01:22
This state needs everything.
1:01:24
They had honest governors so long,
the whole place is in rack and ruin.

1:01:28
- Yeah?
- It's ridiculous.

1:01:30
The roads, for instance.
They're in terrible condition.

1:01:33
In case of war, we'd be at the mercy.
1:01:36
We need a whole new highway system.
1:01:38
How would an enemy get to here?
1:01:40
How do I know? Am I a general?
1:01:43
Then we'll need a new waterworks system,
1:01:46
a state canal and...
1:01:48
You'll kiss me for this one.
1:01:50
- A new dam.
- I do, huh?

1:01:53
I'm guessing from your expression
you don't know what a dam is.

1:01:56
You think a dam is something
you put a lot of water in.

1:01:59
A dam is something
you put a lot of concrete in.

1:02:02
And it doesn't matter how much you put in,
there's always room for more.

1:02:06
And any time you're afraid it's finished,
1:02:08
you find a crack in it and you put
some more concrete in. It's wonderful.

1:02:12
What's the matter with the old dam?
1:02:15
It's got a crack in it.
1:02:17
Of course,
right now while the farmers are looking on,

1:02:21
we could start off with a nice,
little state capital building.

1:02:25
White marble, maybe.
1:02:27
Or do you like pink?
1:02:29
What do we need
a state capital building for?

1:02:32
What do we need it for?
1:02:34
(Laughs)
1:02:37
This one is falling apart.
1:02:39
Look.
1:02:42
It ain't safe.
1:02:46
Looks safe enough to me.
1:02:50
I'm the guy that's gotta work here.
1:02:52
You're kind of dumb this morning,
ain't you, Dan?

1:02:56
Yeah.
