2:27:01
Yes, this is Harry Silver.
2:27:03
Hedda, what a pleasant surprise. Yes.
2:27:07
What, dear?
2:27:09
A new young comic.
2:27:10
Oh, yes, you must mean Stanley, yes.
2:27:14
Well, he's...
2:27:16
He's young. He's very funny.
2:27:19
He's good-looking.
2:27:20
Yes.
2:27:22
No, really, Hedda.
I think that this kid's
2:27:24
going to have a real big chance
in this crazy old town of ours.
2:27:27
Yes. Well, you must meet him. Yes.
2:27:30
Well, how does anyone
meet anyone, sweetie?
2:27:54
Morgan, Chic, Ellen, I'm here.
2:27:57
And we can let the good times roll.
2:28:02
Well, well, well.
2:28:04
- So glad you could come.
- Thank you.
2:28:06
The guest of honour
has finally arrived.
2:28:08
- Yes.
- Do you know that the party
2:28:09
is only supposed
to last for three hours?
2:28:12
Only three hours.
2:28:14
Oh, yeah, well, OK.
I know I'm late, I'm sorry.
2:28:16
But instead of a lot of "Hello"s,
2:28:18
I'll just throw a couple of
quick "Hi, sweetie"s around.
2:28:20
Will that be all right?
2:28:22
- Well, that would make it faster.
- I see you finally made it.
2:28:25
- I finally made it.
- Now, these newspapermen
2:28:27
- are very important to your career.
- Very important.
2:28:28
- I want you to play it cool.
- I'll play it cool.
2:28:30
I want you to show them how happy
and thrilled you are to meet them.
2:28:33
And I want you to be
extra-specially sweet,
2:28:35
humble and nice, you got it?
2:28:37
Yeah. I'll be just as sweet and humble.
2:28:39
- Well, not too sweet, Stanley.
- No, I wasn't...
2:28:42
These people are used to
the soft sell
2:28:44
and the phony approach
to getting names in the papers.
2:28:47
So if I may suggest,
2:28:48
just be yourself:
Honest and sincere.
2:28:51
Honest and sincere.
2:28:54
He answers everything everyone...
2:28:56
Ellen's right, Harry.
If this kid gets the cutes, we're dead.
2:28:59
- Well, I won't get the cutes.
- Will you all stop worrying?
