:41:07
Will you wait here, please?
:41:25
Mr. Beragon, l talked to you
on the phone.

:41:28
This is Mrs. Pierce, the client.
:41:30
-How do you do?
-How do you do?

:41:32
Would you like a drink?
:41:34
-l'm trapped. You talked me into it.
-Mrs. Pierce?

:41:38
As l see it, she wants the house
but doesn't want to pay.

:41:41
Well, that's about it. Mrs. Pierce
needs time to get started.

:41:45
But once successful,
she'll buy the property outright.

:41:48
l see. A very unusual proposition.
:41:50
-How long do you need, Mrs. Pierce?
-l'd say about a year.

:41:54
-You think you can make $ 1 0,000?
-Yes, l have it all--

:41:57
lf the place is successful,
it'll be very successful.

:42:00
lf it isn't, you'll get your
property back in better condition.

:42:03
lt's a gamble,
but you can't lose much.

:42:05
l like to gamble, Mr. Fay.
But the odds are against me.

:42:09
-l'm afraid l'm not interested.
-Please, listen to me.

:42:13
This is a gamble for me too.
:42:15
l'm putting every cent
l have into this place. l haven't much.

:42:18
l can't afford to lose.
l've got all the information.

:42:21
l know what it will cost
and how much l can make.

:42:24
l know l can do it. l know l can!
:42:28
Very well. lt's a deal.
:42:30
Great! l'll draw up the papers.
One more thing.

:42:33
-We'll need a pre-dated transfer of ownership.
-You want it immediately?

:42:36
Yeah. We'll give you a note,
you give us the deed.

:42:39
You take care of the details.
:42:42
Well, how does it feel to be
the owner of a white elephant?

:42:45
lt feels wonderful!
:42:48
How about Uncle Wally?
:42:52
-Nice guy.
-Very. Good-looking too.

:42:54
-Maybe, but no brains.
-What do you mean?

:42:56
You conning him out of the deed
without putting down a cent.

:42:59
-Sure!
-You leave the angles to Uncle Wally.
