1:24:01
Yes, Heidelberg, 1919.
1:24:03
Heidelberg?
How'd you hook up with Jonathan?

1:24:05
I tell you later about that, but you go now.
Please listen to me.

1:24:10
Stop it, Doctor!
1:24:11
You get out of here!
Look, when Johnny's in that mood...

1:24:14
...he's a madman. He's a maniac!
1:24:17
And then things happen. Horrible things.
1:24:20
-Get out of here!
-Will you stop it?

1:24:22
Stop telling me about Jonathan,
I'll take care of him.

1:24:25
You take care of yourself.
Get going, little fellow.

1:24:28
-What's that? Wait.
-My schnapps.

1:24:30
-I could use that.
-That's mine.

1:24:33
Please. Only for dramatic critics.
1:24:36
You beat it before things start popping
around here.

1:24:38
But, look, Mr. Brewster, please.
1:24:41
You've just been married.
1:24:42
You have a nice little wife waiting for you.
Please go now.

1:24:46
Please.
1:24:51
Don't those plays you see all the time
teach you anything?

1:24:54
Don't get me on the subject of plays!
I've got to wait for Mr. Witherspoon.

1:24:58
At least people in plays
act like they got sense.

1:25:00
Did anybody in a play
ever act like they got intelligence?

1:25:03
-How can somebody be so stupid?
-You ought to have my job.

1:25:06
When you get out of prison, have yourself
wheeled to the Garrick Theater.

1:25:11
There's a play that's so bad,
it'll still be running when you get out.

1:25:14
There's a man.... Now listen to this.
1:25:16
He knows he's in the house with murderers
and should know he's in danger.

1:25:19
He's even been warned to get out.
And does he go?

1:25:22
No, he doesn't. He stays!
1:25:24
This fellow doesn't even have sense
to be scared or to be on his guard.

1:25:29
The murderer even invites him to sit down.
1:25:31
-What do you think he does?
-I don't know.

1:25:33
He sits down!
1:25:34
He deliberately pulls up a chair
and he sits down in it.

1:25:38
Isn't that great?
1:25:40
So there he is,
all waiting to be trussed up and gagged.

1:25:44
What do you think they tied him up with?
The curtain cord.

1:25:49
Curtain cord?
1:25:51
But didn't he see him get it?
1:25:52
No. The silly chump sits down
with his back toward the murderer.

1:25:56
All he has to do is look around,
but does he? No!
