:57:00
- I bet it is.
- What?

:57:03
Well, then it's an elephant.
:57:06
- It's supposed to be a rooster.
- A rooster!

:57:10
You know an awful lot of tricks.
Are you a professional magician?

:57:14
- No, I'm not a magician.
- I was just joking.

:57:17
You really don't know who I am?
:57:18
You told me your name, Mr.Kane,
but I'm awfully ignorant.

:57:21
I guess you caught on to that.
I bet I've heard your name a million times.

:57:26
You really like me, though,
even though you don't know who I am?

:57:29
I surely do. You've been wonderful.
:57:34
Without you I don't know
what I would have done.

:57:37
I had a toothache,
and I don't know many people.

:57:40
I know too many people.
:57:43
I guess we're both lonely.
:57:45
Want to know what I was going to do
before I ruined my best Sunday clothes?

:57:49
I bet they're not your best Sunday clothes.
You probably have more.

:57:52
I was just joking.
:57:55
I was on my way
to the Western Manhattan Warehouse...

:57:59
...in search of my youth.
:58:02
You see, my mother died a long time ago.
Her things were put in storage out West.

:58:07
There wasn't any other place to put them.
:58:10
I thought I'd send for them now.
Tonight I was going to take a look at them.

:58:14
A sort of sentimental journey.
:58:20
I run a couple of newspapers.
What do you do?

:58:22
Me?
:58:23
- How old did you say you were?
- I didn't say.

:58:26
If you had, I wouldn't have asked you.
:58:28
- How old?
- Pretty old.

:58:30
- How old?
- Twenty-two in August.

:58:32
That's a ripe old age. What do you do?
:58:34
I work at Seligman's.
I'm in charge of the sheet music.

:58:38
- Is that what you want to do?
- No, I wanted to be a singer, I guess.

:58:43
- That is, I didn't. My mother did for me.
- What happened to the singing?

:58:47
Mother always thought, she always talked
about grand opera for me.

:58:51
Imagine.
:58:52
But my voice isn't that kind.
It's just, you know what mothers are like.

:58:58
Yes.
