:44:00
Listen to me.
:44:01
You don't have to fear.
Don't worry about that girl...

:44:04
because she's
not too fast up here.

:44:05
She wouldn't make no trouble.
:44:07
Yeah. Well, I feel
sorry for her, Mama.

:44:09
She wants to get
into radio so badly...

:44:10
I think some men
take advantage--

:44:12
She's so pretty.
:44:13
Listen to me.
:44:15
Then your cousin Angelo
could help her.

:44:17
Yes, because he knows
everybody on radio.

:44:20
He could get her
any little part...

:44:21
because they owe him
this favor.

:44:25
All right.
:44:26
Now they not only decide
not to bump Sally off...

:44:29
but they get a relative
to ask an unrefusable favor...

:44:31
on her behalf.
:44:33
I don't know if people
were bribed or threatened...

:44:35
but the result was that
she suddenly found herself...

:44:37
with a big acting part...
:44:39
on a very serious
dramatic radio show...

:44:42
that was doing Chekhov.
:44:44
Now here's the payoff
to the story.

:44:46
The country never
got to hear her act...

:44:48
because at the last minute,
fate stepped in.

:44:51
The Japanese have bombed
Pearl Harbor.

:44:53
Earlier this morning...
:44:54
a surprise attack
was made on our naval base...

:44:56
with enormous casualties
to the United States.

:44:58
We are pre-empting
this show to bring you...

:45:00
a special report
on the enemy attack...

:45:02
and a statement from the
President of the United States.

:45:07
Aren't we gonna do the show?
:45:09
What do we do?
Come back Monday?

:45:11
Who is Pearl Harbor?
:45:14
In one terrible moment...
:45:16
world events had come between
the listening public...

:45:18
and Sally White.
:45:20
And suddenly,
the nation was at war...

:45:23
and lives changed.
:45:24
And Sally, like everyone else,
found herself doing her bit.

:45:29
I don't want to walk without you
:45:34
Baby
:45:40
Walk without my arm about you
:45:45
Baby
:45:51
I thought
:45:52
