:36:05
No, Franklin,
I won't play this game.
:36:07
I won't feel
sorry for you.
:36:13
I met a boy today...
:36:16
10 years old.
:36:19
He's paralyzed
from the waist down.
:36:22
Why don't you go regale him with vivid
tales of your trips to Europe,
:36:25
and playing football
at school?
:36:27
Tell him how you courted your wife
and fathered children.
:36:31
Tell him of a life
he can only dream of.
:36:36
Franklin,
:36:38
I can't help you
out of a hole.
:36:40
If I climb in with you,
:36:43
then we're both stuck.
:36:57
Here's another one
he's refusing.
:37:00
Why don't you
read it?
:37:02
I don't like telegrams,
all them "stops" and stuff.
:37:05
- Let me see that.
- Does it make you dizzy, Lionel?
:37:08
A little bit.
:37:11
"Would be honored
if you would place my name
:37:13
in nomination
for President, stop.
:37:15
The Party
needs you, stop.
:37:17
Yours sincerely,
Al Smith"?!
:37:19
- Who is he?
- The Governor of New York.
:37:22
Why don't you slide
that under his door?
:37:25
All right. He'll probably
slide it back at me.
:37:28
I need some coffee.
:37:31
He won't go.
:37:33
He won't want to be seen walking on
crutches or being wheeled to the podium.
:37:36
The millions listening
on the radio won't be able to see that.
:37:39
But all the people
at the convention will.
:37:48
- Afternoon, Mr. Howe.
- Hello, Roy.
:37:55
I can't believe you made me
come all the way back to this hellhole.
:37:58
I've done
no such thing.
