:15:04
What's the idea of pushing me?
:15:07
Who's that?
:15:09
Probably Santa Claus.
:15:14
- How are you?
- Hello, MacCaulay. Come in.
:15:16
Dorothy told me you were here.
I was going to telephone, but...
:15:19
That's all right. Sit down, won't you?
:15:22
- What are you drinking?
- Nothing, thanks.
:15:24
That's a mistake.
:15:25
I wanted to see you.
What's Mimi up to, Mr. Charles?
:15:30
Dorothy's mother.
:15:31
- Does she have to be up to something?
- She usually is.
:15:34
Trying one way or another
to get money out of Wynant.
:15:36
I wanted to find out
if you were sleuthing for her.
:15:41
- I haven't been a detective in four years.
- Is that so?
:15:43
My wife's father died
and left her a narrow gauge railway...
:15:47
and a lumber mill and...
:15:50
several other things.
I'm taking care of them.
:15:52
Say, what's the fuss about?
Is he in hiding?
:15:55
You know as much about it as I do.
I haven't seen him in three months.
:15:58
No word at all?
:15:59
He sends word through his secretary,
Julia Wolf, when he wants money.
:16:03
I give it to her and she gives it to him.
:16:05
That's still on?
:16:09
Excuse me.
:16:10
Hello?
:16:12
Just a minute.
:16:14
For you.
:16:15
Is there a Mr. MacCaulay in the house?
:16:18
Pardon me.
:16:19
Yes? Just a moment.
:16:21
My wife.
:16:23
- How do you do?
- How do you do?
:16:25
What were you saying?
:16:28
He is? Where is he now?
:16:32
Very well.
:16:35
Excuse us.
:16:36
He's back in town. Wynant.
:16:40
Yes. He's waiting for me now.
:16:41
Forgive me, Mrs. Charles,
but I've been so upset.
:16:44
You know,
it's no joke working for a man like that...
:16:48
I guess I'd better be off.
:16:50
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
:16:52
Goodbye.
:16:55
- Merry Christmas.
- Same to you.
:16:57
The next person that says
"Merry Christmas" to me, I'll kill him!
