- What have I here?
- A gold earring.

:30:36
- Can you tell me what this is?
- It's a key case.

:30:39
- What color?
- It is red.

:30:42
Ah, here we are.!
:30:46
Now, Madame Zeena,
will you name this?

:30:52
- It's a scarf.
- Right again!

:30:55
Here.! Quick now. What is this?
:30:59
- Can't take your eyes off him?
- I want to be sure he's getting it right.

:31:03
- Getting what right?
- The code.

:31:05
How do you suppose Zeena's working
without anybody in the cubbyhole?

:31:11
Please concentrate
and see if you know what this is.

:31:15
A gold watch.
:31:17
How does she do it?
:31:20
She and Stan are using a two-person code.
:31:23
- What's that?
- Each word stands for a number.

:31:26
Each number stands for some object.
:31:29
But there's more to it than that.
:31:31
It's the way you accent the syllables
and the vowels. Listen.

:31:35
Quick now.
Will you name this?

:31:38
He's telling Zeena it's a lady's hat.
:31:40
A lady's hat. A beautiful hat.
:31:42
How did you know that?
:31:45
Zeena and I have been helping Stan
memorize the code.

:31:48
Zeena says he's already got it
as good as she has.

:31:50
- Here. Quick now. What is this?
- A silver dollar.

:31:55
As soon as Stan has more practice,
they're going to quit the carnival.

:31:59
- He and Zeena?
- Zeena's already written to three or four booking agents.
