2:26:00
Three, four, five seconds.
Six seconds.
2:26:03
Seven seconds. And if I lose...
2:26:05
Hello, Harry, what's up?
2:26:06
Listen, I wonder if you'd do me a favour.
We got a young kid here,
2:26:09
and some of the network boys
have been nosing around about him.
2:26:11
They seem to think
he's gonna be a pretty hot item,
2:26:13
but they won't commit themselves,
you know.
2:26:15
I wonder if you could find out for me
what they got in mind for him.
2:26:18
They have a funny kid under contract.
2:26:20
One of the networks wants to build
a whole show around him.
2:26:23
Yeah. Barney, do me a favour,
will you?
2:26:27
See what you can find out about him
and get back to me, will you, sweetie?
2:26:30
Say, why don't we have any dope
on this new kid
2:26:32
that Fergusson has under contract?
"What kid"?
2:26:34
Only the funniest new comic that's
come along in years, that's what kid.
2:26:38
Listen, if Barney wants him,
I want him.
2:26:40
The networks have already signed him.
He's supposed to be the greatest.
2:26:43
I want that kid, Paul.
2:26:45
I know talent when I see it, and
that kid's got it. Now, get him for me.
2:26:48
OK.
2:26:59
Hello?
2:27:01
Yes, this is Harry Silver.
2:27:03
Hedda, what a pleasant surprise. Yes.
2:27:07
What, dear?
2:27:09
A new young comic.
2:27:10
Oh, yes, you must mean Stanley, yes.
2:27:14
Well, he's...
2:27:16
He's young. He's very funny.
2:27:19
He's good-looking.
2:27:20
Yes.
2:27:22
No, really, Hedda.
I think that this kid's
2:27:24
going to have a real big chance
in this crazy old town of ours.
2:27:27
Yes. Well, you must meet him. Yes.
2:27:30
Well, how does anyone
meet anyone, sweetie?
2:27:54
Morgan, Chic, Ellen, I'm here.
2:27:57
And we can let the good times roll.
