1:15:03
What do you mean, he's got
no background? That's impossible.
1:15:07
I quoted the man on national television.
He's a very well-known man.
1:15:11
We're well aware of that, sir--
1:15:12
He's a close friend and advisor
of Benjamin Rand.
1:15:15
For Christ's sakes,
we've got volumes of data on Rand.
1:15:18
I plan to contact Mr. Rand the minute--
1:15:20
I do not want Ben disturbed.
1:15:22
We have other ways of gathering
information than to trouble a dying man.
1:15:26
Use any agencies that are necessary to get
a detailed history of Chauncey Gardiner.
1:15:32
Have it in my office, tomorrow at 7:00.
1:15:35
-I've got to take a leak.
-Right, Chief.
1:15:43
Of course, your position in the financial
community carries a lot of weight.
1:15:47
But what caught Gary's interest
was your down to earth philosophy.
1:15:52
I see.
1:15:56
Do you realize more people
will be watching you tonight...
1:16:00
...than all those that have seen
theatre plays in the last 40 years?
1:16:04
-Yes?
-Yes.
1:16:06
Why?
1:16:09
Hell, I don't know.
1:16:12
Good.
1:16:14
-This way.
-Thank you.
1:16:18
Gardiner's laconic.
He plays his cards very close to the chest...
1:16:21
...and the scuttlebutt is
he's a strong candidate for a seat...
1:16:24
...on the board of First American Financial.
1:16:27
Kinney, what have you found
on his background?
1:16:29
Nothing.
1:16:30
Yeah, skip the levity.
1:16:32
I know it's ridiculous,
but there is no information about Gardiner.
1:16:36
We have no material on him.
1:16:39
Zilch.
1:16:43
Here. I want your shoulders to go
right on this pad.
1:16:47
Now, wait, you have toput your head
in the hole first.
1:16:50
Headin the hole.
1:16:52
That's right. Okay. Stretch your legs out,
push your body....
1:16:56
Thought you might need this about now.
It gets pretty hot underneath these lights.
