:32:02

Havent seen you around in a while.
:32:05
Ive been up to Atlantic City,
covering the Miss America contest.
:32:08
Frank, old boy, our countrys never been
in such good shape.
:32:12
- Whats new with you?
- Nothing.
:32:14
Invented any new sundaes lately?
:32:20
- Eileen. Hiya.
- Hi.
:32:23
I tried to call you at the house,
but your sister said youd already left.
:32:27
- I have good news for you.
- Really? What?
:32:29
I heard about an audition.
:32:31
A rehearsal pianist who comes in here,
he told me about it.
:32:34
- When is it? Where do I have to go?
- Its in a theatre on 42nd Street.
:32:37
The piano players name is Charlie
and he said...
:32:39
that if you come over, hell fix it up.
:32:41
Thats wonderful.
I dont know how to thank...
:32:43
Pardon me,
I couldnt help but overhear, Miss...
:32:47
This is Eileen Sherwood. Eileen, Mr. Clark.
:32:51
Thats right. Chick Clark.
:32:52
- Reporter at large, New York Daily News.
- How do you do?
:32:55
You see,
Im well-known around show business...
:32:57
and the producer
holding that audition is a buddy of mine.
:32:59
- Thanks, Chick, but Ive already set it up.
- But with a rehearsal pianist.
:33:03
Youre gonna let this lovely little girl walk in
with that kind of introduction, are you?
:33:07
Thats certainly very considerate of you,
Mr. Clark.
:33:09
Dont be silly. Life wouldnt be worthwhile
if we couldnt help others.
:33:13
Ill just put in a call to my friend
and fix it up.
:33:15
- Thank you.
- Be right back.
:33:18
Now, isnt that nice?
:33:20
Eileen, I wish you wouldnt get
too friendly with him.
:33:23
Why?
:33:26
Hes a pretty smooth operator.
:33:29
- Frank, hes just trying to help.
- But hes not an agent. Hes a reporter.
:33:33
Id like him to meet Ruth.
:33:35
She used to be a reporter, too,
on the Columbus Courier.
:33:37
Maybe he could introduce her
to his editor or something, huh?
:33:40
Yeah.
:33:44
Well, its all set.
:33:46
- Youll have to hurry. Ill walk you over.
- Okay. Bye, Frank.
:33:49
Wait a minute. Ill come along, too.
:33:50
- Good.
- Thats not at all necessary.
:33:52
Im on my lunch hour
in five minutes, anyway.
:33:54
- Take over, will you, Fred?
- Sure, Frank.
:33:56
Dont you need
some kind of clothes to dance in?
:33:58

right underneath here.
