:18:02
- Mr. Neff, I.....
- Make it Walter.
:18:04
- Walter.
- Right.
:18:07
Tell me, Walter...
how much commission do you make?
:18:11
20%. Why?
:18:13
I thought maybe
I could throw more business your way.
:18:16
I can always use it.
:18:16
I was thinking about my husband.
:18:18
I worry a lot about him,
down in those oil fields.
:18:21
It's very dangerous.
:18:22
- Not for an executive, is it?
- He doesn't just sit behind a desk.
:18:24
He's right down there with the
drilling crews. It's got me worried sick.
:18:28
You mean some dark night
a crown block might fall on him?
:18:30
- Please don't talk like that.
- But that's the idea.
:18:33
The other day a casing line snapped
and caught the foreman.
:18:36
He's in the hospital with a broken back.
:18:38
It's bad.
:18:39
It's got me jittery
just thinking about it.
:18:41
Suppose something like that
happened to my husband?
:18:44
It could.
:18:47
Don't you think he ought to
have accident insurance?
:18:49
Uh-huh.
:18:51
- What kind of insurance could he have?
- Enough to cover doctors' and hospital bills.
:18:56
Say a 100 and 25 a week cash benefit.
And he'd rate around $50,000 capital sum.
:19:01
- Capital sum? What's that?
- In case he gets killed.
:19:05
Maybe I shouldn't have said that.
:19:07
I suppose you have to think of everything
in your business.
:19:10
Your husband would understand.
:19:11
I'm sure I could sell him on the idea
of some accident protection.
:19:14
Why don't I talk to him about it?
:19:15
- You could try. But he's pretty tough going.
- They're all tough at first.
:19:21
He's got a lot on his mind.
:19:22
He doesn't seem to want to
listen to anything...
:19:24
except maybe baseball on the radio.
:19:27
Sometimes we sit all evening
without a word to each other.
:19:31
Sounds pretty dull.
:19:33
- So I just sit and knit.
- Is that what you married him for?
:19:38
Maybe I like the way
his thumbs hold up the wool.
:19:41
Anytime his thumbs get tired...
with me around you wouldn't have to knit.
:19:46
Wouldn't I?
- I bet your life you wouldn't.
:19:51
Why not a little rum
that gets this up on its feet?
:19:57
I want to ask you something, Walter.
