Don't shoot. Don't shoot, boys.
:58:04
Take off that beard, Dilg.
I recognize you.

:58:07
His name is Professor Lightcap.
:58:10
I'm sorry, professor, but I've never
known hounds to make a mistake.

:58:13
- This town is nothing but mistakes.
- Bad dogs.

:58:16
And I'll thank you to call
your men off and your dogs too.

:58:20
I'll see that you lose
your badge for this.

:58:23
I can't understand it.
:58:25
I raised those hounds and this is the
first time they've ever made a mistake.

:58:44
- That house there was built in 1740.
- Yes, yes.

:59:01
Beaver.
:59:04
It's a game. First one to spot a beard.
Beards are unusual in these parts.

:59:09
I suppose they are. I don't think I
ever told anyone how I came to grow it.

:59:15
I was one of the youngest ever
to graduate from Harvard Law School.

:59:19
In fact, I was teaching at
Commonwealth before I was 22.

:59:22
I had a frank and open face. People
in trolley cars used to call me "sonny."

:59:29
Boys I was teaching would slap me
on the back. Women would wink at me.

:59:34
- Is that bad?
- No, but I had no time for nonsense.

:59:38
The beard became a sort of fortress.
And then I grew attached to it.

:59:42
- I think it's pretty.
- What am I to say to that?

:59:45
- I wonder what's going on over here.
- Pulaski's, the borscht place.

:59:57
- We must get some for Joseph.
- We haven't time.
