:09:02
Jimmy!
:09:06
Yes, ma'am.
:09:08
Mr Zimmerman says
will you not talk so loud?

:09:10
- He's trying to go to sleep.
- Tell him to drink a cup of coffee.

:09:14
And don't take cold up there.
Is Betty warm enough?

:09:16
- Yes, thank you, Mrs MacDonald.
- All right, dear.

:09:23
I'd like you just as much
if you didn't win the old contest.

:09:26
- That's because you're a sap.
- Maybe I am.

:09:28
But if I am I'm glad of it.
You know how we feel about each other.

:09:32
- Nix.
- It's true, isn't it?

:09:34
- You can't say I'm being forward.
- Not much.

:09:38
I'm not. Time is slipping by
and we're not getting any younger.

:09:42
Nix.
:09:43
Two can live as cheaply as one.
:09:45
Who wants to live cheaply?
Cut it out, will you?

:09:50
What would you do if you won the $25,000?
:09:53
Stick it in the bank.
:09:55
Wouldn't you even buy a little ring
or something?

:09:57
- I don't like rings on a man.
- Oh, you.

:10:00
What's the use of talking about it?
You know I'd spend it on you and mum.

:10:04
I'd get you a new shiny car
and a swell apartment.

:10:07
Maybe one of those little dream houses
in the suburbs, some hired help.

:10:11
Maybe a trip to Europe. Maybe the Grand
Canyon would be better nowadays.

:10:15
- We'd be happy all right.
- We could be happy anyway.

:10:18
Everything that means happiness
costs money.

:10:21
How much was your dad making
when he married your mom?

:10:23
- 18 bucks a week.
- Well?

:10:25
You think that proves something?
:10:28
She's never been to the country
for more than a day.

:10:30
Never had any nice furniture.
:10:32
The dream of her life is a Davenport that
turns into a double bed at night-time.

:10:37
She's never had a nice dress
except those she made herself.

:10:40
I wore the old man's stuff cut down
until I got my first job

:10:44
and he was worn out at 48 and croaked
because he couldn't afford a doctor.

:10:47
Where do you get that $18 a week stuff?
:10:49
I earn $18 and you earn $22 and that's $40.
:10:52
Sure and you've got your ma
and I've got mine.

:10:55
You get a kid and you have to stop work
and we're right back at the $22 again.

:10:59
Except then there's you and the kid
and the two old ladies and me.
