:58:06
Listen. You know
something l don't know?
:58:10
I found a piece of osmunda
in Colbert's car.
:58:13
- A piece of what?
- On the brake pedal. Osmunda. Fern root.
:58:17
Fern root? Oh, is Mr Endicott here?
:58:21
Yes, sir. He's out in the greenhouse.
Would you follow me, please?
:58:49
- Gillespie.
- Mr Endicott.
:58:52
This here's Virgil.
:58:55
- Mr Tibbs.
- How do you do, sir?
:58:58
Oh, may l have Henry fetch you
somethin'? Some light refreshment?
:59:02
- No, thank you. We're all right...
- I'll have something cold, soft. Anything.
:59:06
Henry, bring in a pitcher of lemonade.
I'll have one, too.
:59:09
Yes, sir.
:59:13
I didn't know it was possible
to grow this species locally.
:59:16
- Oh, you like flowers?
- I do.
:59:18
Mr Tibbs, do you know
anything about orchids?
:59:21
- Not very much, but l do like them.
- Well, let me show you.
:59:27
Endicott's folly.
:59:32
- What do you think?
- It's beautiful. It's breathtaking.
:59:36
- Have you a favourite, Mr Tibbs?
- Well, l'm partial to any of the epiphytics.
:59:41
Why, isn't that remarkable!
:59:44
That of all the orchids in this place,
you should prefer the epiphytics.
:59:48
I wonder if you know why.
:59:51
Maybe it would be helpful if you'd tell me.
:59:53
Because, like the Negro,
:59:56
they need care and feedin' and cultivatin'.
