:44:18
I hope you're satisfied.
:44:21
Where am I?
:44:23
You're not in a shooting gallery!
:44:25
But, sugar, this is the nicest
Christmas present I've ever had.
:44:29
You act as though it were the only
Christmas present you ever had.
:44:33
Where did you get that wristwatch?
:44:36
It's a Christmas present.
:44:38
- Yeah? Who gave it to you?
- You did.
:44:43
You must admit I've got pretty good taste,
haven't I?
:44:46
Have you finished with this?
:44:47
Yes, and I know as much
about the murder as they do.
:44:50
I'm a hero.
I was shot twice in the Tribune.
:44:54
I read where you were shot
five times in the tabloids.
:44:56
It's not true. He didn't come
anywhere near my tabloids.
:45:02
Bull's eye!
:45:03
Hello. Who is it? Send him right up.
:45:08
Who was that?
:45:09
Mr. MacCaulay.
:45:11
The Mallorys.
Oh, dear, I forgot all about them.
:45:14
Aren't you hot in that?
:45:15
Yes, I'm stifling. But it's so pretty.
:45:18
The Kirbys.
:45:19
Is that another Christmas present?
:45:23
- Did I give it to you?
- Yes.
:45:25
I'm spoiling you.
:45:28
Why, Nicky, this is from Clyde Wynant.
:45:31
He says, "Will you take charge
of investigation on Julia Wolf murder?
:45:34
- "Communicate with Herbert MacCaulay."
- Let me see.
:45:37
- Where's it from?
- Philadelphia. Well, then, he didn't do it.
:45:40
I don't know.
:45:42
He wouldn't ask you to handle it
if he were guilty, would he?
:45:47
Your guess is as good as mine, baby.
:45:49
Nicky, take the case.
:45:50
You take it. I'm too busy.
:45:53
- How do you do?
- Good morning.
:45:55
I'm afraid this isn't a very
merry Christmas for you.
:45:58
- He's all right.
- Good.
:45:59
- How are you, MacCaulay?
- I'm fine.
