:08:07
You haven't had much
to say this trip, Harry.
:08:09
I'd counted on you for laughs, some
of your well-known bright remarks.
:08:14
Maybe going on the wagon
makes a man dull.
:08:16
Could be.
:08:18
Oscar hasn't touched his whisky.
:08:21
- No, thanks.
- How long has it been?
:08:24
- Five months, next Tuesday.
- Let that be a lesson to you, Myrna.
:08:29
- It's never too late to develop character.
- I've got time.
:08:33
The fact that you don't drink at all, Kirk,
:08:35
is the greatest argument
for drunkenness I know.
:08:45
Wanna know why I went on the wagon
when I went to work for you?
:08:48
Because I didn't want you around
when my brain was befuddled.
:08:52
First thing I know, you might buy my soul.
:08:55
You can't buy people's souls.
They belong to God.
:08:57
- What's champagne in Spanish?
- Wait till Oscar gets back.
:09:02
Not always, Kirk.
Sometimes it's quite a tussle.
:09:05
- Remember Faust?
- I don't believe I do.
:09:09
Faust was something like you, Kirk.
:09:11
Except, instead of all the money
in the world, he had all the knowledge.
:09:15
But the one thing he never knew,
like you, was a moment of real happiness.
:09:19
So he made a deal with the Devil.
He'd trade his soul to the Devil
:09:23
in return for that one moment
of real happiness.
:09:27
- How'd it turn out?
- God fought the Devil for Faust's soul.
:09:32
It was a close fight.
:09:33
Most people think God won. I personally
always thought it wound up a draw.
:09:40
I think it's a silly story.
:09:42
No man with all that money and
knowledge could never have been happy.
:09:45
Sure it's a silly story. Can you ever
imagine Kirk being in a spot like that?
:09:50
Worst come to worst, he'd just "buy" God.
:09:55
A woman who drinks is bad enough.
:09:57
But I will not stand for a woman
cursing and blaspheming God.
