:31:22
Okay. Okay.
Take it easy. Take it easy.

:31:25
Now you're full of ginger.
:31:27
Last night
you couldn't draw a fly.

:31:29
And we're prepared
to offer Miss Kellerman

:31:31
eight pounds a week
for such series of swims.

:31:33
Well, she's still asleep
and I doubt every much

:31:35
if she'd be interested.
Alright, though

:31:36
If there's any change,
you can reach me at Daily Mirror.

:31:39
Doubt that she'll be interested?
:31:41
What are you, nut?
:31:43
Good morning.
:31:45
Good morning, Dad.
Good morning.

:31:47
Good morning, Sydney.
You could tell your boss

:31:49
he'd got the most comfortable bed
I ever slept in.

:31:53
You might as well
face it, Professor.

:31:55
Your daughter here
is a celebrated woman.

:31:56
She'd already receive
a dozen offer of employment.

:31:59
Employment? What kind?
Every kind.

:32:01
Personal appearances,
swimming events, diving exhibits,

:32:04
the H&R club wants you to go on
the duck shooting season,

:32:06
the Crystal Palace would like
to know if you could sing,

:32:08
and then there's
the chap here a minute ago,

:32:10
who's from the Daily Mirror.
:32:11
His paper
wants to sponsor a series

:32:12
of swim at beach resorts
offering eight pounds a week.

:32:15
Well, you didn't let him away,
did you? You accept it?

:32:19
No.
:32:20
Well, which offer did you accept?
:32:22
None.
You don't think for a minute.

:32:24
I'll let you fall
for any of these chicken feat.

:32:26
Eight pounds
to swim around the ocean.

:32:27
What kind of a future
is there to that?

:32:29
Future? Who's thinking about
the future?

:32:31
I am. Maybe you don't realize it,
:32:33
but you've struck gold, pay dirt.
:32:35
Those crowd who came last night,
:32:36
they didn't come to see me,
they come to see you,

:32:38
and I for one, intend to
see that you capitalize on it.

:32:42
What do you propose to do?
:32:44
I propose to stage a show.
Our own show, a water carnival.

:32:47
A water carnival?
Why not.

:32:48
It's something brand new.
:32:49
We get a tank
and we charge admission.

:32:51
Our own private ocean.
I can see it now.

:32:53
People flocking to see the
gorgeous mermaid from Down Under.

:32:56
I see something beautiful,
something graceful, a ballet.

:32:59
That's it.
A water ballet except the music.
