Speaker 1: how'd you like to make ten dollars?

Speaker 5: What would I do if the man I loved two
Speaker 5: timey and I told him, just like I told you,
Speaker 5: I'd be.
Speaker 4: A strong He said the same thing.
Speaker 3: He asked, ma'am. He says, what would I do it.
Speaker 4: So he's using my idea? Is he he can't think
Speaker 4: of one? Is one of his own?
Speaker 2: What do you mean one of his own?
Speaker 4: Step Molla, Were you listening outside my door?
Speaker 2: Yes? I was.
Speaker 1: I thought something was screwy about the way Lily acted.
Speaker 1: So you bribed her to find out what I was
Speaker 1: writing about?
Speaker 2: Did you?
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm leaving no such a thing?
Speaker 2: Why I did? Head?
Speaker 4: Well, what if I did? What do you mean by
Speaker 4: using my pot your plot? Yes?
Speaker 2: My part probably never even occurred to you until Lily
Speaker 2: came in and told you about it.
Speaker 4: Is that? So how do I know what? You were
Speaker 4: listening outside the door when I was beginning to create
Speaker 4: this idea. You were probably out there all the time,
Speaker 4: you you weaves dropper.
Speaker 2: Oh listen, Julie.
Speaker 1: I don't care about the plot. You can use it
Speaker 1: if you want to. But the fact that you would
Speaker 1: deliberately bribe someone to find out what I was doing,
Speaker 1: the fact that you'd be well dishonest about this thing,
Speaker 1: it hurts me more than I.
Speaker 2: Can tell you.
Speaker 4: Oh, Zeba, I'm sorry. It was a mean trick.
Speaker 2: It's just that I thought I could trust you, Julian.
Speaker 4: Now, well, I don't know oh, zeb please forgive me.
Speaker 4: I'll never do anything like that again, honestly.
Speaker 3: Can I finish this room now?
Speaker 4: Yes, Lily, come in, Doug.
Speaker 3: I'll still get that dressing course, ma'am?
Speaker 4: Yes, I guess so.
Speaker 5: And does I still get that? Fifteen dollars mister Marlow?
Speaker 5: Fifteen dollars for what?
Speaker 2: Uh? Lily, never mind now, I'll talk to you about
Speaker 2: that some other time.
Speaker 4: Fifteen dollars for what?
Speaker 5: Will you give me a dress and purse to find
Speaker 5: out what mister Marlow.
Speaker 4: Is writing at?
Speaker 5: He give me fifteen dollars to find out what you
Speaker 5: is right now? And you both writing the same thing.
Speaker 4: So I'm low, so I'm dishonest, so you can't trust
Speaker 4: not let me explain it. So I'm the kind that
Speaker 4: stoop surpriving am I will you just wait that Mallow?
Speaker 4: You're going to find out what competition is you? You cheat.
Speaker 2: The man? Lily Brown lead comes to a close.
Speaker 1: Have any of you, ladies and gentlemen, ever been in
Speaker 1: a well, I'm going to change that question. Friends, I'm
Speaker 1: going to ask you if you've ever witnessed a serious
Speaker 1: automobile accident at any rate. You've seen pictures of accidents
Speaker 1: and you've certainly read about them.
Speaker 2: You're well aware of.
Speaker 1: The fact that only time can heal the sorrow and
Speaker 1: heartbreak of motor fatalities. They happen daily, and families are
Speaker 1: faced with the tragic problem of money lack of money
Speaker 1: in many instances. I wonder if you know that a
Speaker 1: member in the Chicago Motor Club includes a personal accident
Speaker 1: policy at no extra cost, a policy that provides a
Speaker 1: benefit of from one thousand to fifteen hundred dollars according
Speaker 1: to how long you've been a member. Think what that
Speaker 1: means to families who were left with the desperate worry
Speaker 1: of making every penny count. That generous personal accident policy
Speaker 1: at no extra cost remember calls for immediate payment if
Speaker 1: a member is killed by a car while walking or driving,
Speaker 1: or while riding in a car driven by another. But
Speaker 1: this remarkable service is only one of many that assure protection, security,
Speaker 1: and peace of.
Speaker 2: Mind for Chicago Motor Club members.
Speaker 1: Is it any wonder that I urge you, in all
Speaker 1: sincerity to read the club's valuable free booklet. And here's
Speaker 1: the easiest and quickest possible way to ask for that booklet.
Speaker 1: This very evening, between the second and third acts of
Speaker 1: to night's play. We're going to substitute a musical intermission
Speaker 1: for our regular announcement. I don't miss a moment of
Speaker 1: the play, and you will have ample time to write
Speaker 1: down your name and address and have it all ready
Speaker 1: to mail to the Chicago Motor Club, Chicago or its
Speaker 1: nearest branch office.
Speaker 2: If you live in Chicago, you can.
Speaker 1: Use the time to call Franklin one eight, one eight
Speaker 1: and ask for your free booklet. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: the second act of Lily Brown leaves.
Speaker 4: Oh hello, ed, hello, Why aren't you up? Why I'm
Speaker 4: going to?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 4: Uh, where's Lily? I wanna tell her I won't be
Speaker 4: here for dinner?
Speaker 2: Or you won't?
Speaker 4: No, I won't, And wouldn't you like to know where
Speaker 4: I'm going?
Speaker 2: Though not particularly? Oh uh? When you find Lily, tell
Speaker 2: her that I won't be here for dinner either.
Speaker 4: Oh all right, you don't need to think I'm going
Speaker 4: to ask you where you're going.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't tell you, my sweet.
Speaker 4: Well, I don't wanna know. How's the script coming along?
Speaker 2: Ooh fine, fine, it's almost finished, is it? Yes? Don't
Speaker 2: tell me you're still dabbling around up there on the typewriter.
Speaker 4: H you won't call her dabbling when I win the prize?
Speaker 2: Oh? No, perhaps dodd Well, I guess I'll go up.
Speaker 4: And dress, run along, and uh, don't wait up for me, dear.
Speaker 2: Oh, you'll probably be in long before I am. Don't
Speaker 2: you wait up for me?
Speaker 4: Huh going out?
Speaker 3: You see?
Speaker 4: I wonder what he's up to? Oh, where's lily? Lily exactly? Uh, Lily,
Speaker 4: I won't be here for dinner, and neither will mister Morrow.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 4: Accidentally, you don't happen to know where he's going, do you? No?
Speaker 5: Man?
Speaker 4: How much did he pay you not to tell me?
Speaker 4: Two dollars?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 4: So he is going someplace he doesn't want me to
Speaker 4: know about. Clee, you got to tell me? No, man,
Speaker 4: I'll give you three dollars.
Speaker 5: No, ma'n, I'm sticking to one price on this deed.
Speaker 5: He pay me two dollars not to tell you where
Speaker 5: he going, and you pay me two dollars for me
Speaker 5: not to tell him that you is going out with that?
Speaker 5: And mister Walters, who owned a crystal toothpaste.
Speaker 1: Come in.
Speaker 3: I ain't raising or loring that priss for neither one
Speaker 3: of 'em.
Speaker 4: Oh, Lily, after all, I've done for you. Yeah, well, anyway,
Speaker 4: see that he doesn't find out about this mister Walter's business,
Speaker 4: so you won't get your two dollars and you'll lose
Speaker 4: your job.
Speaker 2: Mine was awfully nice of you to come.
Speaker 4: I was only too happy too, but it was at
Speaker 4: the difficult keeping all this from my husband.
Speaker 2: Yes, but think what a nice surprise it'll be for him.
Speaker 1: You see, I specialize in writing feature stories about the
Speaker 1: lives of famous men, and well we find that the
Speaker 1: wives really know so much more about the men than
Speaker 1: they do themselves.
Speaker 4: But it seems so strange.
Speaker 6: It's coming to a night lock as well. I uh,
Speaker 6: I think better in a place like this, you see.
Speaker 6: I mean the music, the noise and all. Well, it
Speaker 6: helps me to concentrate. Do you understand, Well.
Speaker 4: Not quite, but I know that writers are unusual people.
Speaker 2: Well, now let's get started on your husband. Now tell
Speaker 2: me all about So.
Speaker 4: I decided the person to come to was you.
Speaker 7: Well, and that's very flattering, my dear, as I really
Speaker 7: haven't done much.
Speaker 3: Oh yes you have.
Speaker 4: You're really a very famous man. I was terribly thrilled
Speaker 4: when my paper gave me your name as an assignment
Speaker 4: for a feature story.
Speaker 7: What paper did you say you worked for the Daily Star? Strange,
Speaker 7: I've never noticed this famous men column you mentioned.
Speaker 4: Well, it's just a new feature, I see.
Speaker 7: And do you always bring your famous men to a
Speaker 7: nightclub to interview them?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 4: Well yes usually, you see, we feel they're doing a
Speaker 4: somewhat of a favor and we like to entertain them
Speaker 4: a little.
Speaker 7: Well, I had the dickens of a time getting away
Speaker 7: from my wife.
Speaker 2: I don't think she would have understood.
Speaker 4: Oh I'm sure she would have. H Now, mister Wallers,
Speaker 4: tell me. Aren't you sponsoring some sort of a scriptwriting
Speaker 4: contest for your toothpaste? Oh?
Speaker 7: Why yes, I am.
Speaker 4: Oh I think that's terribly interesting. Now, just what kind
Speaker 4: of a script do you yourself prefer for your radio program?
Speaker 7: Well, I appre look look over there, there's my wife
Speaker 7: with that radio is doing.
Speaker 2: Hey, wait a minute, do you two know each other?
Speaker 4: Deb speak up? Don't make me do.
Speaker 2: The talking I never saw before in my life.
Speaker 4: Zeb. Well, why he's my husband, mister Walters. And if
Speaker 4: your wife has alienated his affections, I'll sue you.
Speaker 2: You'll sue me.
Speaker 7: Why Emma, did this young man start to ask you questions.
Speaker 3: About the crystal radio script context.
Speaker 4: Why, yes he did. I thought it a little strange.
Speaker 7: But just as I thought, I see the whole thing now,
Speaker 7: this pair of swindlers is trying to get first hand
Speaker 7: information on our radio context hull. Well you're not very clever,
Speaker 7: young lady.
Speaker 1: How long am I?
Speaker 2: Well you certainly fixed things up? Fine?
Speaker 4: Oh shut up?
Speaker 1: What about you if you'd only had the sense to
Speaker 1: pretend that you didn't know me?

Speaker 4: old woman and the smirk you had on your face. Well,
Speaker 4: why she's old enough to be.
Speaker 1: Your mother as well. You were acting pretty freish with
Speaker 1: old man Waller's yourself.
Speaker 4: Well, at least he would have paid the bill. I
