What's the matter? "Why did
George F Babbitt underwrite a guarantee
1:15:04
of $30,000 to bring a revival to Zenith?"
1:15:06
"Is Sister Sharon
preaching the word of Jesus
1:15:09
or the gospel of Babbitt's
real-estate business?"
1:15:13
For God's sakes! I don't want any trouble.
1:15:16
I am in business.
I'm a 32nd-degree Mason.
1:15:19
George boy, don't take
this thing so seriously!
1:15:22
- I just sure as hell don't think it's a joke!
- We'll lick it, Georgie!
1:15:26
"Georgie!" My telephone
has not stopped ringing.
1:15:29
Everybody's mad at me or laughing at me.
Even my own family's turned against me.
1:15:33
As of right now,
1:15:35
I am cancelling out on my support -
financial and every other way.
1:15:39
George, you've got to fight back!
1:15:44
- Fight the press?
- Yes.
1:15:46
Mister, do you know anybody
ever licked the newspapers?
1:15:49
Me and you.
1:15:52
Besides, I am for a free press,
and for free enterprise,
1:15:56
and for... whatever the hell
the other freedoms are!
1:16:00
But, Reverend, you invited us here.
1:16:02
If you withdraw your support now, you're
endorsing this vicious newspaper smear.
1:16:06
- These telegrams of protest...
- There's always a lunatic fringe...
1:16:09
These are from my parishioners. These
are complaints from my church board.
1:16:14
Even my national superior
telephoned me long-distance.
1:16:17
I'm sorry, Mr Morgan.
1:16:19
- If you turn against us now...
- What I do doesn't matter.
1:16:22
Public opinion has turned against you.
That does matter.
1:16:26
- Tell him it's Sister Sharon Falconer.
-
1:16:29
- No, I'll wait.
-
1:16:34
- Did you find Mr Gantry?
- Nobody's seen him since he left.
1:16:37
- His hotel room?
- Hasn't been there all day.
1:16:40
Yes? Mr Eddington?
1:16:44
I want to see you. No, sir, at once.
1:16:48
No, your office will be fine.
Will you please have Mr Lefferts there?
1:16:53
Thank you.
1:16:57
Maybe... something
happened to Mr Gantry.
