You're the widow. You've got to give Harvey's
rebuttal. No, no, I can't go up there.
:44:04
- I can't do this.
- But in conclusion, I'd like to say, congratulations, Harvey.
:44:07
Rigor mortis is the closest you
ever come to a hard-on in 15 years.
:44:13
I thank you.

Harvey himself is gonna
throw in his two cents...
:44:25
as soon as we take 'em
off his eyelids.
:44:28
[Laughing] I don't
get it. I don't get it.
:44:31
And now, for the rebuttal on behalf of our
guest of honor, his lovely widow, Bernice.
:44:35
And nothing's changed, Harvey. She's
still gonna be doing all the talking.
:44:38
[Laughs]
Bernice Pitnik!

Thank you, Merv...
I mean, Steve.
:44:56
That's quite all right.

Now, well, I would like
to inject a serious note,
:45:04
as, uh, Henny Youngman
did earlier.
:45:07
[Scattered Laughter]
:45:13
I want to say to...
:45:15
Harvey, my late husband,
:45:20
as I look down at you,
:45:23
lying there motionless,
:45:25
I can only think
of one thing...
:45:29
our wedding night.
[Laughter]

[Laughter Continues, Fades]

[Chuckles]
I'll never forget my...
:45:37
my last moments with...
Harvey,
:45:41
[Laughter] As I... as I
took him into my arms...
:45:45
and I whispered those
three little words:
:45:49
"Sign the will. "

[Laughter]
[Laughs]
:45:53
[Laughing] Great. But seriously,
:45:56
I'm glad to see
Slappy White here today.
:45:58
Now at least I know
my hubcaps are safe.
