:10:00
I didn't mean "ruined" ruined.
:10:01
We're poor, but happy.
But definitely poor.
:10:04
Isn't this a beautiful sea bass?
:10:06
Who wants to join me, hmm?
:10:12
By now, you've
probably guessed...
:10:14
that the Masked Avenger's
secret compartment ring...
:10:16
meant a lot to me.
:10:18
Well, it did.
:10:19
Because they were gold
and mysterious...
:10:21
and they fit any finger.
:10:22
The box top, I already had.
:10:24
But the 15 cents was hard
to come by in those days.
:10:28
I tried not thinking about it...
:10:29
but it was very hard
to keep off my mind.
:10:32
And the masts and the sail.
:10:34
You even have to work
with the tweezers...
:10:37
to get some
of the small stuff in.
:10:39
I'll pass it around.
:10:40
That was lovely, Evelyn.
:10:42
Arnold, why don't you
come up...
:10:43
and show the class
what you have?
:10:45
Just go stand right over there.
Go ahead.
:10:46
I found this
on my parents' night table.
:10:48
That will be enough!
You go sit down!
:10:50
What did I do?
You told me to bring something.
:10:52
Put that thing in your pocket
and sit down!
:10:54
Ross, why don't you
come up here?
:10:55
You have something suitable
to show the class, don't you?
:10:57
Yes, I do.
:10:58
Very good. Stand right here.
:11:00
This is my Masked Avenger
secret compartment ring.
:11:03
It's very special to me.
:11:05
Now basically,
I was an honest kid.
:11:07
But there are some things
in life...
:11:09
that are just too compelling.
:11:11
That afternoon at Hebrew school,
a scheme occurred to me.
:11:15
Next week, we are going
to issue collection boxes...
:11:21
and each of you will be
asked to go out in the street...
:11:26
and collect funds
for the promotion...
:11:29
of a new state in Palestine.
:11:33
Hey, can you give
to the Jewish National Fund...
:11:34
and help us build a homeland
in Palestine? Please? No?
:11:37
Hey, how about you?
:11:38
Can you give to
the Jewish National Fund?
:11:40
Can you help us? Anything?
:11:41
Hey, how about--
:11:43
Can you? Can you? No? Oh.
:11:45
Give to
the Jewish National Fund?
:11:47
Hey, can you give us--
Hey, excuse me.
:11:49
Can you--give it to me,
please. Thank you.
:11:54
Guys, we got enough here
to get Masked Avenger rings...
:11:56
and an ice-cream soda.
:11:58
We gotta leave some
for Palestine.
:11:59
Why should we leave anything
for Palestine?
