:06:03
...and it'll all seem worthwhile.
:06:06
Okay, okay, John. How about a script?
:06:10
There's one around here somewhere.
We don't have a title yet.
:06:13
It's called African Trader
or African something.
:06:16
Miss Wilding?
:06:22
Where's a copy of that goddamned script?
:06:24
I haven't seen it, John.
:06:26
Then find it. What kind of a secretary
are you? What do you do all day?
:06:30
I've been typing your letters
and answering the telephone.
:06:33
- Balls.
- I have.
:06:35
You were competent
when you first got here.
:06:37
Now you just hang around all day
spying for Paul Landers.
:06:41
It's not true. I don't spy for anybody.
Especially Mr. Landers.
:06:45
Find the script, then.
:06:46
We have a meeting with Landers
and his money men in an hour.
:06:49
Right.
:06:51
- Paul Landers is producing this?
- That's right.
:06:54
And you know why I agreed
to work with him again?
:06:57
No.
:06:58
Because it's the wrong thing to do.
:07:05
- I'm so glad to see you, Pete.
- It's good to see you, Paul.
:07:08
- You can save all our lives.
- How's that?
:07:11
- The monster. I think he's losing his mind.
- He's in fine shape.
:07:15
You've only been with him half a day.
You don't know what he's been like.
:07:18
He's almost killed the deal five times.
:07:21
The only reason it's still alive
is because of me.
:07:23
- He wants to go to Africa.
- Paul, how the hell are you?
:07:26
Johnny boy! Did you have a good day?
Get a lot done?
:07:30
Hell, no. But Pete and I
did have a nice chat.
:07:33
- What do you think of the script?
- I haven't read it yet.
:07:35
- I think it's awfully good.
- You do?
:07:38
Well, it's a shame you don't know
a damn thing about it.
:07:43
- You see?
- He's always been like that.
:07:45
No, he's worse. He's insane.
:07:47
In a well-ordered society,
he'd be in a straitjacket right now.
:07:51
Where the question of color is concerned,
it's an extra expense.
:07:54
As far as I'm concerned,
of questionable value.
:07:57
- I quite agree.
- Well, I don't.
