1:14:01
He sure does.
1:14:03
Do you go to school here?
1:14:05
Yeah, in Brooklyn.
1:14:07
Brooklyn! So your daddy wants you
to have an American education?

1:14:11
Well, you see,
1:14:13
my father don't believe
in this King business,

1:14:15
so he changed his name
and came to live in Brooklyn.

1:14:18
That's where he met my mother.
1:14:20
She didn't know he was a Prince.
1:14:22
She just thought he was
an ordinary emigrant,

1:14:25
but she loved him,
so she married him.

1:14:27
That's how I was born.
1:14:29
That's how the King
became my uncle.

1:14:31
But my uncle don't speak to my
father because they always quarrel.

1:14:35
One time
they were going to fight a duel.

1:14:38
That's why my father
came to America,

1:14:40
to give air and sunlight
to his thoughts.

1:14:42
The land of the free and the home
of the brave was his inspiration.

1:14:46
But today that freedom
is threatened.

1:14:48
Committees are searching men's
minds, controlling their thoughts.

1:14:52
And those who have the courage
to stand up are boycotted,

1:14:55
lose their jobs
and are left to starve.

1:14:58
Say, what the...?
1:14:59
They are condemned without trial.
1:15:01
Look here, young man!
1:15:02
Such procedure debases
the legality of our courts,

1:15:06
which says that no state
may deprive any person of life,

1:15:09
liberty, freedom of speech,
without due process of law!

1:15:13
This will about fit him.
1:15:16
Put this with the other things.
1:15:17
Rather fun.
1:15:19
We don't want the Commission
to arrive while that boy's there.

1:15:24
Hurry up, please!
1:15:26
- Scandalous!
- Outrageous!

1:15:28
These investigations, Sir,
are necessary

1:15:31
when our security is threatened.
1:15:33
With the hydrogen bomb
you have no security.

1:15:35
Why, that's communist talk!
1:15:37
Only with world cooperation
and understanding are we secure.

1:15:41
If you were older, Sir,
I'd report you to the authorities.

1:15:45
All right, report me!
1:15:47
Make me give names! Make
a sniveling stool pigeon out of me!

1:15:51
Brainwash me! But you can't.
1:15:53
They couldn't brainwash the signers
of the Declaration of Independence!

1:15:56
And you can't brainwash me.
1:15:59
Nobody wants to brainwash you.
