:20:01
Could I get him an accident policy
without bothering him at all?
:20:05
How's that again?
:20:06
That would make it easier for you, too.
You wouldn't even have to talk to him.
:20:09
I have a little allowance of my own.
I could pay for it...
:20:12
and he needn't know anything about it.
:20:16
Why shouldn't he know?
:20:18
Because he doesn't want accident insurance.
:20:20
- He's superstitious about it.
- A lot of people are. Funny, isn't it?
:20:24
If there was a way to get it
like that, all the worry would be over.
:20:29
- You see what I mean, Walter?
- Sure. I've got good eyesight.
:20:32
You want him to have the policy
without him knowing it.
:20:35
And that means without the insurance
company knowing that he doesn't know.
:20:38
- That's the set-up, isn't it?
- Is there anything wrong with it?
:20:41
No, I think it's lovely.
:20:43
And then, some dark wet night,
if a crown block fell on him...
:20:45
What crown block?
:20:46
Only sometimes it can't quite make
it on its own so it has to have a little help.
:20:49
- I don't know what you're talking about.
- Of course, it doesn't have to be a crown block.
:20:52
It can be a car backing over him,
or he can fall out of an upstairs window.
:20:55
Any little thing like that,
as long as it's a morgue job.
:20:57
Are you crazy?
:20:59
Not that crazy.
:21:02
- Goodbye, Mrs. Dietrichson.
- What's the matter?
:21:06
Look, baby, you can't get away with it.
:21:10
- You want to knock him off, don't you.
- That's a horrible thing to say!
:21:14
Who'd you think I was, anyway?
:21:15
A guy that walks into a good-looking dame's
front parlor...
:21:17
and says "Good afternoon,
I sell accident insurance on husbands.
:21:19
You got one that's been around too long?
:21:21
Somebody you'd like to
turn into a little hard cash?
:21:22
Just give me a smile and I'll help you collect."
Boy, what a dope you must think I am!
:21:26
I think you're rotten.
:21:28
I think you're swell.
So long as I'm not your husband.
:21:31
- Get out of here.
- You bet I'll get out of here, baby.
:21:33
I'll get out of here but quick.
:21:45
So I let her have it,
straight between the eyes.
:21:48
She didn't fool me for a minute,
not this time.
:21:51
I knew I had hold of a redhot poker and the
time to drop it was before it burned my hand off.
:21:56
I stopped at a drive-in for a bottle
of beer, the one I had wanted all along,
