In connection with my job, sometimes
I have to go undercover, as it were.

:49:08
I don't mean that.
:49:10
Why are you pretending to be
such a hard old sourpuss?

:49:15
Ain't going to never make you happy!
:49:19
I'm happy enough.
:49:26
I got gears to see to.
:49:33
I'm plenty happy!
:49:45
I can't print that!
:49:47

:49:50
It's pure speculation!
They'd have my butt in a satchel!

:49:54
They'll buy that stock--
:49:56
You don't know anything. They haven't

:50:17
Come on, Chief. That's a low blow.
:50:19
Archer's not going to go gooey
for a corn-fed idiot.

:50:22
I was out of line. But you're out of line
with this stock-swindle story.

:50:25
Give me more of that
"moron from Sheboygan" stuff.

:50:28
- Muncie.
- Whatever.

:50:29
That's what sells newspapers!
:50:31
I've got a harder story:
"The Sap From The City Desk!"

:50:34
- Watch it!
- It's about a dim-witted editor who--

:50:36
Easy, tough guy.
:50:41
Does this suit look mannish to you?
:50:43
Yeah, sure. Let's grab a highball.
:50:47
Back off!
:50:48
Smoocher!
:50:52
What gives?
