:59:00
It must be wonderful to be associated...
:59:02
- with such a great artist as Jardinet.
- It is a pushover.
:59:06
- Did you say Jardinet?
- Why, of course.
:59:08
Be sure when the "Normandie"
docks tomorrow in New York...
:59:11
Jardinet and his entire orchestra
come directly here.
:59:14
This bedroom will be awfully crowded.
:59:16
Say, Suzie, hiring a world-famous guy
like what's-his-name...
:59:19
that will run into money.
:59:21
I realize that. I didn't expect him
to play at my party for nothing.
:59:24
You'll get your check tomorrow night
as agreed.
:59:27
Tell me, suppose through
some strange quirk of fate...
:59:30
that Jardinet couldn't get here?
:59:32
Would you be interested
in any other form of entertainment?
:59:35
Say some novel surprises
wrapped in sawdust?
:59:38
Why, it's unthinkable.
Jardinet must get here.
:59:41
After all, $7,500 for one night's
entertainment is a lot of money.
:59:46
$7,500 is a pretty penny,
but my client needs $10,000...
:59:51
for reasons that should be
pretty obvious by now.
:59:55
I hate to bring up money matters
in a bedroom, but...
:59:59
But what?
1:00:00
Just write me out a check for $10,000...
1:00:03
and everybody will be happy,
including the gorilla...
1:00:05
and I do mean you.
1:00:07
But we agreed on $7,500.
1:00:10
But you do not know
about the rate of exchange.
1:00:12
You see, in "la belle France..."
1:00:14
$7,500 is over 150,000 francs...
1:00:18
while in this country, $7,500...
1:00:21
is, well, $7,500.
1:00:25
That is fluctuation.
1:00:27
Very well.
Anything to make the party a success.
1:00:30
This will be the most successful
surprise party you have ever given.
1:00:34
But it's not a surprise party.
1:00:36
What will you bet?
1:00:48
By this time tomorrow,
you'll be in Chicago.
1:00:52
Then what?
1:00:55
It's really a swell break for you, Julie.
1:00:57
The Miracle Shows have a fine outfit.
