nor in auto renewals, nor in
Mr. Dietrichson and his daughter Lola.

:09:04
I was thinking about that dame upstairs
and the way she had looked at me

:09:08
and I wanted to see her again, close
without that silly staircase between us.

:09:19
- I wasn't long, was I?
- Not at all, Mrs. Dietrichson.

:09:21
I hope I've got my face on straight.
:09:23
- It's perfect for my money.
- Neff is the name, isn't it?

:09:26
With two f's, like in Philadelphia.
If you know the story.

:09:29
What story?
:09:29
The Philadelphia Story.
:09:31
Suppose we sit down and
you tell me about the insurance.

:09:33
My husband never tells me anything.
:09:35
It's on your two cars,
the La Salle and the Plymouth.

:09:40
We've been handling this insurance for 3 years
and we hate to see these policies lapse.

:09:46
That's a honey of an anklet
you're wearing, Mrs. Dietrichson.

:09:50
As I was saying,
we'd hate to see the policies lapse.

:09:53
Of course, we give him 30 days.
That's all we're allowed to give.

:09:55
I guess he's been too busy down
at Long Beach in the oil fields.

:09:58
Could I catch him home some evening
for a few minutes?

:10:00
I suppose so.
But he's never home much before eight.

:10:02
That would be fine with me.
:10:04
You're not connected
with the Automobile Club, are you?

:10:06
No, the All-Risk, Mrs. Dietrichson. Why?
:10:08
Somebody from the Automobile Club
tried to get him.

:10:11
- Do they have a better rate?
- If your husband's a member.

:10:14
No, he isn't.
:10:16
Well, he'd have to
buy the membership to start with.

:10:19
I never knock the other
fellow's merchandise, Mrs. Dietrichson.

:10:22
The Automobile Club is fine.
:10:24
I can do just as well for you, though.
I have a very attractive policy here.

:10:28
It wouldn't take me two minutes
to put it in front of your husband.

:10:30
For instance, we're writing a new kind of
50% retention feature in the collision coverage.

:10:36
You're a smart insurance man,
aren't you, Mr. Neff?

:10:38
I've had 11 years of it.
:10:40
- Doing pretty well?
- It's a living.

:10:43
You handle just automobile insurance
or all kinds?

:10:47
All kinds. Fire, earthquake, theft...
:10:48
public liability, group insurance,
industrial stuff and so on.

:10:52
Accident insurance?
:10:54
Accident insurance?
Sure, Mrs. Dietrichson.

:10:58
I wish you'd tell me
what's engraved on that anklet.
