:44:03
Can we just have the last line
of the act?
:44:07
Me? Last line? Right.
Well, I'll tell you one thing, Vicki.
:44:12
What's that, Dad?
:44:14
When all around is uncertainty,
:44:16
there's nothing like a good
old-fashioned plate of sardines.
:44:20
- And curtain!
- Oh.
:44:37
All right. Let's reset for night, act two.
:44:47
In fact, they loved it in Des Moines.
At the end of act two, they laughed.
:44:52
What's this?
:44:55
There's only one thing missing:
a plate of sardines.
:45:04
Yeah. They clapped and clapped.
In Des Moines.
:45:07
Well, they clapped.
Even Selsdon heard them.
:45:12
But then there was Decatur, Illinois,
:45:15
then there was Cairo, Missouri,
and Paducah, Kentucky.
:45:19
I wasn't there for the difficulties
in Decatur or the problems in Paducah,
:45:25
but I couldn't always
hold their hands.
:45:28
How could I be in Decatur and Paducah
when I was doing Hamlet in New York?
:45:33
I caught up with the show
in Miami Beach.
:45:36
I was right in there with them
when they did that famous matinée.
:45:45
- Sir, your ticket?
- I'm the director. Don't tell anyone.
