Mr. Deeds Goes to Town

:01:35

Corny, who do you think
you're talking to?

:01:38

If the Semple attorneys don't know
who the heir is, who does?

:01:41

Come on, Corny. I've done you a lot of
favors. Who's getting the Semple dough?

:01:46

You're asking the wrong guy, Mac.
I'm only a press agent.

:01:49

- Newspaperman?
- Wants to know who the heir is.

:01:51

- Hang up.
- Sorry, Mac, l can't--

:01:53

- Yeah, sure, but I ain't the attorney.
- Hang up!

:01:56

Mr. Cedar is,
and l haven't seen him in two days.

:01:59

- Cedar, we gotta deal with the papers.
- I'm not interested in the newspapers.

:02:02

But it's a great story. Somewhere
a guy is walking into 20 million bucks.

:02:07

My first concern
is to locate the lucky man.

:02:09

When l do, you keep
the newspapers away from him.

:02:11

Okay, as long as that weekly stipend
keeps coming in.

:02:14

We located him, Mr. Cedar.

:02:16

- Yes, John, we got him.
- Here's the report.

:02:18

Longfellow Deeds, single, 28,
lives in Mandrake Falls, Vermont.

:02:20

- Thank heaven.
- Better wire him.

:02:22

I'll do no such thing. I'm going
there myself. You too, Anderson.

:02:25

You too, Cobb.

:02:27

Make three train reservations
to Mandrake Falls, Vermont.

:02:30

- Where?
- Mandrake Falls.

:02:33

"Welcome to Mandrake Falls...

:02:36

where the scenery enthrals...

:02:38

where no hardship e'er befalls.

:02:42

Welcome to Mandrake Falls."

:02:45

That's pretty.

:02:47

- You're sure he lives in this town?
- This is the town, all right.

:02:50

Well, I hope it's not
a wild goose chase.

:02:53

No, sir, we checked it thoroughly.
He lives here, all right.

:02:56

l spy a native.
Let's ask him.
