02:39I've got to have a reporter.
02:40I'm trying to locate a reporter, boss.
02:42Hey, let me do it.
02:44You promised me ten years ago that you'd give me...

03:35Even to Reno?
03:37Even to Reno.
03:38And cover that story thoroughly.
03:42When you go out, give this to the cashier and get expense money.
03:44Is it all right if I spend 15 cents for an ice cream soda?
03:50Will you get started?
03:51Yeah, I'll...
03:52Come here, Miss Fit.
