...damage estimated in the millions.
21
00:02:20,312 --> 00:02:22,731
It's the third such outbreak
in this area this month,
22
00:02:23,065 --> 00:02:25,317
and reflects the unrest
that has plagued the area
23
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,903
since early last year,
when similar conflagrations
24
00:02:27,986 --> 00:02:29,363
arose all across the country.
25
00:02:29,446 --> 00:02:31,531
- Morning, troops.
- Many attribute the action to...
26
00:02:31,615 --> 00:02:33,367
- Hello, sweetheart.
-...a predictable seasonal unemployment.
27
00:02:33,492 --> 00:02:34,868
- Hey, Burton.
- The Governor pointed out that,
28
00:02:34,951 --> 00:02:36,495
should another such incident occur,
29
00:02:36,662 --> 00:02:38,121

for special Federal riot troops,
31
00:02:40,207 --> 00:02:43,543
an action that no-one wants,
least of all the White House,
32
00:02:43,627 --> 00:02:46,213

that such disturbances were over,

They think that, at any moment,

with a watermelon,

Yassuh, Mr Townsend.
180
00:11:43,166 --> 00:11:45,126
And fifty dollars if you're a fella!
181
00:11:45,710 --> 00:11:48,046
(IRISH ACCENT) Ah, the top of
the morning to you, Mr Townsend,
182
00:11:48,129 --> 00:11:49,130
and how are ya?
183
00:11:49,255 --> 00:11:51,132
Gerber, sit down and stop
being so damn happy.
184
00:11:51,216 --> 00:11:52,592
- It's depressing.
- Yes, sir.
185
00:11:52,675 --> 00:11:55,220
Gerber, I am not
going to mince words.
186
00:11:55,303 --> 00:11:57,222
You have turned in
a very disappointing month.
187
00:11:57,388 --> 00:11:58,765
Well, I must say
I agree with you.
188
00:11:58,848 --> 00:12:00,099
But, considering
the time of year...
189
00:12:00,183 --> 00:12:02,060
Look, I'm just pointing out
it's a sub-productive month.
190
00:12:02,143 --> 00:12:04,437
- I'm not asking why.
- It's income tax time.
191
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,606
And, though people die,
they seldom buy.
192
00:12:06,689 --> 00:12:09,192
Gerber, look, I may as well
come right out and say this.
193
00:12:09,275 --> 00:12:11,152
It's time somebody told you...
194
00:12:11,277 --> 00:12:13,571
I've got bad breath.
Bad breath.
195
00:12:13,655 --> 00:12:15,240
You got something
much worse than that.
196
00:12:15,323 --> 00:12:18,534
Offensive perspiration?
Midriff bulge? Er...
197
00:12:18,618 --> 00:12:20,745
Dingy dentures?
Asiatic crud!
198
00:12:20,954 --> 00:12:23,748
There! That's exactly
that kind of a remark.
199
00:12:23,873 --> 00:12:25,583
You, Gerber, are a smartass.
200
00:12:25,667 --> 00:12:28,253
A number one,
king-size smartass!

I'm the best salesman
in this office.

You were.
203
00:12:31,381 --> 00:12:33,549
But your rate of new policies
is dropping.
204
00:12:34,050 --> 00:12:35,343

to sell policies

only to younger men
207
00:12:39,138 --> 00:12:41,975
who can live longer,
and pay premiums longer,
208
00:12:42,100 --> 00:12:43,685
and you don't appreciate it.
209
00:12:43,768 --> 00:12:46,229
Anybody can sell a policy
to a 90-year-old man
210
00:12:46,312 --> 00:12:47,480
with a cough
and the shingles.
211
00:12:47,563 --> 00:12:50,108
Listen to me, Gerber,
your customers curl up their toes
212
00:12:50,191 --> 00:12:51,818
at the same rate as all
of our other customers.
213
00:12:51,901 --> 00:12:53,903
Yeah, well, of course,
if 23 of my customers
214
00:12:53,987 --> 00:12:55,613
go down in
a sailing boat accident,
215
00:12:55,697 --> 00:12:57,282
that's bound to raise
the mortality rate!
216
00:12:57,365 --> 00:12:58,408
What sailing boat?
217
00:12:58,491 --> 00:13:00,410
- Er... in the squall.
- What squall?
218
00:13:00,493 --> 00:13:02,370
Oh, no, no, it was the train.
The train.
219
00:13:02,453 --> 00:13:03,913
Thirty-three of them went
right off the trestle.
220

- What train?
- Er...

I'm trying to make contact.

00:27:59,057 --> 00:28:01,768
I can tell from my bridge work.
Look. See? Huh? Huh?
471
00:28:01,852 --> 00:28:03,478
Your teeth are very white.
472

That's the contrast.
473
00:28:04,855 --> 00:28:06,273
And your hair.
474
00:28:06,356 --> 00:28:08,483
My hair's always been
naturally curly.
475
00:28:08,567 --> 00:28:10,861
Wh... What about
your birthmarks?
476
00:28:11,486 --> 00:28:13,363
I can't find them anymore.
477
00:28:13,614 --> 00:28:16,325
Maybe I've been overdoing
the sun lamp a bit.
478
00:28:16,408 --> 00:28:19,286
A bit! If you spent
as much time in bed
479
00:28:19,369 --> 00:28:20,621
as you do
under that sun lamp,
480
00:28:20,787 --> 00:28:22,456
maybe we would have
more children.
481
00:28:22,539 --> 00:28:24,416
This is no time to discuss
additional children.
482
00:28:24,499 --> 00:28:26,418
No, I should say not.
What would the neighbours think?
483
00:28:26,501 --> 00:28:28,378
A lot of half-coloured kids

you looked in the mirror?

It's the sun lamp,
isn't it?
487
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,762
Because you wouldn't be
teasing me like that

around in an emergency.

00:28:44,394 --> 00:28:47,439
You know... you know,
it's very strange.
493
00:28:47,522 --> 00:28:50,150
My mother always thought you were
a little on the dark side.
494
00:28:50,234 --> 00:28:52,402
I mean, she never came
right out and asked me.
495
00:28:52,486 --> 00:28:55,822
Your mother is in no position
to judge other people's races.
496
00:28:55,948 --> 00:28:59,034
The way her eyes slant up, my mother
always thought she was Chinese.
497
00:28:59,368 --> 00:29:01,703
- Silliest thing I ever heard.
- Oh, yeah?
498
00:29:01,912 --> 00:29:04,164
Well, then, how come
her feet are so small?
499
00:29:04,248 --> 00:29:06,500
And how come, whenever you
asked her when she was born,
500
00:29:06,583 --> 00:29:08,126
she always says
"the Year of the Dragon"?
501
00:29:08,293 --> 00:29:10,462
And how come she was
always so anxious to...
502
00:29:10,545 --> 00:29:11,964
to wash my shirts?
503
00:29:12,047 --> 00:29:14,466
Does that sound like
a white woman to you, huh?
504
00:29:14,549 --> 00:29:16,969
My mother has
almond-shaped eyes.
505
00:29:17,052 --> 00:29:20,055
So has Mao Tse-tung.
And she eats too damn much rice.
506
00:29:20,138 --> 00:29:22,474
If you ask me, she's a
member of the Red Guard.
507
00:29:22,557 --> 00:29:23,850
All right, Jeff, all right,
508
00:29:23,934 --> 00:29:25,978
but it isn't a Chinese issue
we are discussing.
509
00:29:26,061 --> 00:29:27,771
We're discussing
a Negro issue.
510
00:29:27,854 --> 00:29:30,941
- It's a sun lamp issue!
- Well, that may very well be,
511
00:29:31,024 --> 00:29:34,069
but you certainly can't go
to the office like that.
512
00:29:34,152 --> 00:29:36,613
Oh, my God,
what time is it?
513
00:29:36,697 --> 00:29:38,573
Gladys is in the office now.
514
00:29:38,657 --> 00:29:41,159
That is the first thing.
I gotta report in sick.
515
00:29:42,619 --> 00:29:45,706
You can't tell her that
you woke up sunburned.

00:29:58,802 --> 00:30:00,345
Anyway, um... Gladys,
521
00:30:00,429 --> 00:30:03,724
Er... look, just cancel all my
appointments for the day, okay?
522
00:30:03,807 --> 00:30:05,851
Tell 'em I'll call 'em
tomorrow, okay?
523
00:30:05,934 --> 00:30:07,769
Okay. Thank you.
524
00:30:08,437 --> 00:30:11,231
The trick is to be
logical and rational.
525
00:30:11,315 --> 00:30:13,859
I got a warranty around here
for that sun lamp.
526
00:30:13,942 --> 00:30:16,486
Let's see,
logical and rational, yeah.
527
00:30:16,611 --> 00:30:18,822
You really think it's
the sun lamp, don't you?
528
00:30:18,905 --> 00:30:20,741
Oh, you'd like me to be
coloured, wouldn't you?
529
00:30:20,824 --> 00:30:22,743
Well, not really.
but it would serve you right
530
00:30:22,826 --> 00:30:24,745
with that attitude
of white supremacy.
531
00:30:24,828 --> 00:30:27,247
Well, I didn't see you exactly
runnin' over to hug and kiss me
532
00:30:27,331 --> 00:30:28,832
when you thought
I was a Negro.
533
00:30:28,915 --> 00:30:32,336
I was upset because I thought
you were a stranger.
534
00:30:32,419 --> 00:30:34,338
Oh, beans! If it was
a white stranger
535
00:30:34,421 --> 00:30:37,341
came out of that shower,
you'da humped him.
536
00:30:37,424 --> 00:30:38,842
Ah, here it is.
537
00:30:39,009 --> 00:30:40,260
They're a reputable company.
538
00:30:40,344 --> 00:30:42,262
I'm sure this has
happened before.
539
00:30:42,346 --> 00:30:43,764
ALTHEA:
Yeah, all over Africa.
540
00:30:43,847 --> 00:30:46,308
Oh, just keep it up, baby.
Just keep it up.
541
00:30:46,391 --> 00:30:49,728
(DIALLING)
542
00:30:56,318 --> 00:31:00,155
Hello, I'd like to speak to
somebody with regard to
543
00:31:00,238 --> 00:31:03,283
your sun lamp model LT34X.
544
00:31:03,367 --> 00:31:05,285
Oh, it's working, all right.
545
00:31:05,369 --> 00:31:08,038
A little bit too well.
Ah, thank you.
546
00:31:08,121 --> 00:31:10,040
They're switching me
to the manager.
547
00:31:10,123 --> 00:31:12,042
Hello, my name is Gerber.
548
00:31:12,125 --> 00:31:15,962
I've got one of your
model LT34X sun lamps.
549
00:31:16,588 --> 00:31:20,550
Er... serial number 36677231.
550
00:31:21,176 --> 00:31:22,886
Ah, yeah.
Well, the problem is...
551
00:31:22,969 --> 00:31:24,846
That's an old wives' tale.
Excuse me.
552
00:31:24,930 --> 00:31:27,849
Er... the problem is, er...
it's made me rather dark.
553
00:31:27,933 --> 00:31:28,892
Whew!
554
00:31:28,975 --> 00:31:31,895
Well, a little darker
than was necessary.
555
00:31:31,978 --> 00:31:36,108
Ah, yes, once in the morning,
and, er... once at night.
556
00:31:36,191 --> 00:31:38,068
Yes, I...
I use a lotion.
557
00:31:38,151 --> 00:31:40,612
Well, it's kind of
my own concoction.
558
00:31:40,695 --> 00:31:45,117
Baby oil, cocoa butter,
iodine, and soy sauce.
559
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:46,618
(CHUCKLING)
560
00:31:46,701 --> 00:31:48,620
About one third soy sauce.
561
00:31:48,703 --> 00:31:50,414
Well, of course
you never heard of it.
562
00:31:50,497 --> 00:31:53,083
It's my own formula.
(LAUGHING)
563
00:31:53,166 --> 00:31:55,127
Look, you don't
seem to understand.
564
00:31:55,210 --> 00:31:57,796
It's left me very tan.
565
00:31:58,672 --> 00:32:00,424
Yes, very.
566
00:32:01,675 --> 00:32:02,926
Dark.
567
00:32:04,177 --> 00:32:05,679
Very dark.
568
00:32:07,681 --> 00:32:10,100
Yes, very.
569
00:32:11,476 --> 00:32:13,061
You stupid...!
570
00:32:13,562 --> 00:32:15,397
No, it's not a joke.
571
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,191
I am not Sid Percival
pulling your leg.
572
00:32:18,275 --> 00:32:22,195
42, Tangerine Lane, and I'm
a dissatisfied customer.
573
00:32:22,279 --> 00:32:25,240
Hello? Hello? Hello?
574
00:32:26,116 --> 00:32:27,826
Can you beat that?
575
00:32:29,119 --> 00:32:31,163
They want to send me
a new sun lamp.
576
00:32:31,246 --> 00:32:33,206
ALTHEA:
That's very sporting of them.
577
00:32:33,290 --> 00:32:35,292
What the hell am I going
to do with a new sun lamp?
578
00:32:35,375 --> 00:32:37,335
Well, maybe
you could mate them.
579
00:32:38,837 --> 00:32:41,339
You're just
having a dandy time, boy.
580
00:32:41,423 --> 00:32:42,966
Oh, relax, Jeff.
581
00:32:43,049 --> 00:32:44,384
Althea,
582
00:32:44,468 --> 00:32:47,429
you wouldn't hug me unless you
really thought I was white, right?
583
00:32:47,512 --> 00:32:50,015
Oh, poor baby,
Don't worry.
584
00:32:50,098 --> 00:32:51,558
You'll be white again.
585
00:32:51,808 --> 00:32:53,768
- Hey, wait a minute.
- What is it?
586
00:32:54,186 --> 00:32:55,479
There are things that we can do.
587
00:32:55,562 --> 00:32:57,606
I mean, what do they do
when they want to look white?
588
00:32:57,689 --> 00:32:59,608
They must use
salves and creams.
589
00:32:59,691 --> 00:33:01,109
And hair straighteners.
590
00:33:01,193 --> 00:33:03,361
I don't want
my hair straightened,
591
00:33:03,445 --> 00:33:04,613
I want my skin straightened!
592
00:33:04,696 --> 00:33:06,281
What the hell else
are we talkin' about?
593
00:33:06,364 --> 00:33:07,616
Where are you going?
594
00:33:07,699 --> 00:33:09,993
To one of their drugstores.
Call me a cab.
595
00:33:11,369 --> 00:33:12,871
Your cab's here.
596
00:33:14,206 --> 00:33:15,332
What are you doing?
597
00:33:15,415 --> 00:33:17,792
The door's not open
on the cab.
598
00:33:17,876 --> 00:33:19,836
Go on out there and
open the door on the cab.
599
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,379
(EXCLAIMS)
600
00:33:22,172 --> 00:33:23,507
Go on!
601
00:33:36,353 --> 00:33:38,230
(KNOCKING)
602
00:33:45,987 --> 00:33:47,364
(CAB DOOR CLOSING)
603
00:33:47,447 --> 00:33:49,324
Take me to
the coloured section.
604
00:33:55,163 --> 00:33:57,123
Nice neighbourhood.
What do you do there?
605
00:33:57,207 --> 00:33:58,124
Mow the lawn?
606
00:33:58,208 --> 00:33:59,626
What do they pay you?
607
00:33:59,709 --> 00:34:01,670
I get to sleep with
the lady of the house.
608
00:34:03,547 --> 00:34:05,507
Would you put
your hands down?
609
00:34:05,590 --> 00:34:08,009
All I want is a pair
of sunglasses. Now, look,
610
00:34:08,093 --> 00:34:10,011
I got a skin problem.
611
00:34:11,555 --> 00:34:13,557
What's this, and this?
Get me a paper bag.
612
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,184
No, better yet, get me a box,
A box, big box.
613
00:34:16,476 --> 00:34:18,520
There you go.
All right, let's see now.
614
00:34:18,603 --> 00:34:19,854
Uh-huh, white, yeah.
615
00:34:19,938 --> 00:34:22,857
Okay, give me some of these.
Yeah. Pearl Sheen.
616
00:34:22,941 --> 00:34:25,860
Uh-huh, all right.
Now, let's see, now.
617
00:34:25,944 --> 00:34:28,363
Ah, try some of this
white folk stuff here.
618
00:34:28,446 --> 00:34:29,906
Now, let's see here,
that's good.
619
00:34:29,990 --> 00:34:32,284
"Beautiful Bleach."
That probably is great.
620
00:34:32,367 --> 00:34:34,160
"Miracle Wash."
621
00:34:34,411 --> 00:34:36,246
Hair straightener.
That'll help.
622
00:34:36,746 --> 00:34:38,790
More processing stuff, there.
623
00:34:38,873 --> 00:34:40,250
All right.
624
00:34:41,626 --> 00:34:46,381
You remember, if anybody asks you
if you ever saw me in here,
625
00:34:46,464 --> 00:34:49,384
you never laid eyes on me.
Okay?
626
00:34:49,467 --> 00:34:51,428
Mum's the word.
627
00:34:57,809 --> 00:34:59,311
Any change?
628
00:34:59,811 --> 00:35:01,271
No.
629
00:35:01,354 --> 00:35:03,690
But I don't imagine
it would be immediate.
630
00:35:03,773 --> 00:35:05,775
I mean, I don't think
any intelligent Negro
631
00:35:05,859 --> 00:35:08,945
expects it to be immediate.
Don't be so militant.
632
00:35:09,029 --> 00:35:11,823
It's different.
I'm not militant, I'm white.
633
00:35:11,948 --> 00:35:13,366
I expect it to be immediate.
634
00:35:13,783 --> 00:35:15,702
We've rubbed in
four different brands.
635
00:35:15,785 --> 00:35:17,203
Don't you think
we ought to stop?
636
00:35:17,454 --> 00:35:20,582
Well, come on, put on some more
hair straightener. Come on. Here.
637
00:35:26,588 --> 00:35:30,050
Jeff, I... I don't want you
to get all excited, but...
638
00:35:30,133 --> 00:35:32,552
I do think
you're a little lighter.
639
00:35:32,636 --> 00:35:35,055
It's hard to tell
through the cream, but...
640
00:35:35,138 --> 00:35:37,057
Yeah, I think you're right.
641
00:35:37,140 --> 00:35:38,558
Around the neck here, right?
642
00:35:38,642 --> 00:35:40,060
Especially
around the neck.
643
00:35:40,143 --> 00:35:42,562
- Uh-huh, and around the chin?
- Yes, the chin, too.
644
00:35:42,646 --> 00:35:45,565
- And around the nose, mmm?
- Yes.
645
00:35:45,649 --> 00:35:47,567
You're lying to me, Althea!
646
00:35:47,651 --> 00:35:51,071
Don't lie to me, Althea.
Just don't lie to me.
647
00:35:51,154 --> 00:35:55,200
Oh, this is crazy. I don't
want to be this colour.
648
00:35:55,325 --> 00:35:57,035
What are you doing up there?
649
00:35:57,118 --> 00:35:58,119
Calm down.
650
00:35:58,203 --> 00:36:00,372
Oh, I'll yell all I want.
He can't hear me.
651
00:36:00,497 --> 00:36:01,873
He's the white man's god.
652
00:36:01,956 --> 00:36:03,500
Jeff, you are not a Negro.
653
00:36:03,667 --> 00:36:06,044
Oh, my goodness,
I'm getting darker. I can see it.
654
00:36:06,127 --> 00:36:07,629
Come on.
Get all this crap off me.
655
00:36:07,712 --> 00:36:10,423
Come on, quick.
Oh, my God, I need more.
656
00:36:10,507 --> 00:36:12,967
Oh, come on,
I'm getting darker.
657
00:36:13,051 --> 00:36:14,761
Jeff, calm down.
658
00:36:14,844 --> 00:36:16,763
I can't take a...
I can't take a shower,
659
00:36:16,846 --> 00:36:18,890
'cause if I take a shower,
my body'll shrink,
660
00:36:19,015 --> 00:36:21,851
and the skin I have
won't fit. Aaah!
661
00:36:22,394 --> 00:36:25,105
Will you calm down? The children
will be coming home from school soon,
662
00:36:25,188 --> 00:36:26,981
and I don't want you
getting them upset.
663
00:36:27,065 --> 00:36:29,943
Upset? Wait until they find out
they have a coloured daddy.
664
00:36:30,110 --> 00:36:32,862
Huh? Wait till I get down
my knee and I sing "Mammy".
665
00:36:33,780 --> 00:36:35,323
You're gonna talk
yourself into it, Jeff.
666
00:36:35,407 --> 00:36:37,701
Oh, my goodness,
th-th-these creams don't work.
667
00:36:37,784 --> 00:36:39,703
No wonder Negroes riot.
668
00:36:39,786 --> 00:36:41,955
I mean, these are
worthless hoaxes.
669
00:36:46,459 --> 00:36:47,961
JEFF:
Hi.
670
00:36:52,090 --> 00:36:53,550
Hi.
671
00:36:54,592 --> 00:36:56,553
I'm your father.
672
00:36:56,636 --> 00:36:57,971
Sure. Hi, Dad.
673
00:36:58,054 --> 00:36:59,097
JANICE:
Hi, Dad.
674
00:36:59,472 --> 00:37:01,057
Um...
675
00:37:01,141 --> 00:37:03,143
don't you have anything
you want to say to me?
676
00:37:03,226 --> 00:37:05,019
Your face is dirty.
677
00:37:05,103 --> 00:37:07,272
That's a nice thing
to say to your father.
678
00:37:07,355 --> 00:37:09,399
Sure is a heck of a tan
you got, Dad.
679
00:37:09,482 --> 00:37:11,067
You look like
a coloured man.
680
00:37:11,151 --> 00:37:12,902
That's very good.
Thank you, Burton.
681
00:37:12,986 --> 00:37:14,362
We could use you at the UN.
682
00:37:14,446 --> 00:37:15,697
Come on, kids.
I'll get your dinner ready.
683
00:37:15,780 --> 00:37:16,823
BURTON:
What are we having?
684
00:37:16,906 --> 00:37:20,744
Oh, black-eyed peas,
hominy grits, corn bread, ham hocks.
685
00:37:20,869 --> 00:37:21,953
BURTON:
What's with him?
686
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,039
Didn't get to race his bus
this morning. He's a little upset.
687
00:37:25,206 --> 00:37:27,167
Why are you doing that, Daddy?
688
00:37:27,250 --> 00:37:28,293
Doing what, sweetheart?
689
00:37:28,376 --> 00:37:30,962
- Racing buses.

you've ever said to me, sir.
1041
00:56:01,321 --> 00:56:03,448
Did you get that tan in just
the two days you were out?
1042
00:56:03,574 --> 00:56:06,285
Yes, yes, I did.
The secret is soy sauce.
1043
00:56:06,368 --> 00:56:07,828
Lots and lots of soy sauce.
1044
00:56:07,911 --> 00:56:09,830
Don't you think
you overdid it a bit?
1045
00:56:09,913 --> 00:56:11,832
Yes, yes, I do.
I... I really do.
1046
00:56:11,915 --> 00:56:14,751
It was a frightening experience.
1047
00:56:14,877 --> 00:56:16,169
Yeah, I should think so.
1048
00:56:16,253 --> 00:56:18,463

to come apart at the seams.

Until I spoke to you, Mr Townsend,
I must confess,
1052
00:56:26,513 --> 00:56:28,390
I was pretty shook up.
1053
00:56:28,473 --> 00:56:31,852
All right, now go on back
to your desk, and don't let me down.
1054
00:56:31,977 --> 00:56:35,147
All right, sir.
God bless you, sir.

Would you get my optometrist
on the phone?
1060
00:56:49,661 --> 00:56:52,372
These tinted contact lenses
he gave me,
1061
00:56:52,456 --> 00:56:55,083

a bit on the dark side.

that I have a glorious tan.

If I didn't know you, I'd have to say...

to see me again?
1372
01:12:23,553 --> 01:12:29,100
- I don't think it's necessary.
- Closing the book on me, huh?
1373
01:12:29,851 --> 01:12:33,354
Now, with your approval,
I'd like to turn your case over
1374
01:12:33,437 --> 01:12:35,314
to an outstanding young doctor
1375
01:12:35,398 --> 01:12:38,568
who's a member
of your own race.
1376
01:12:38,985 --> 01:12:40,486
Dr John l Catlin.
1377
01:12:40,695 --> 01:12:42,530
You may have heard of him.
1378
01:12:42,697 --> 01:12:44,699

Lincoln?
1379

You do understand,
don't you, Jeff?
1380
01:12:48,035 --> 01:12:49,787
Of course.
1381
01:12:49,954 --> 01:12:51,455
Good.
1382
01:12:51,581 --> 01:12:55,126
Well, perhaps we'll bump into
each other again some day.
1383
01:12:56,210 --> 01:12:58,588
Maybe at the Newport Regatta.
1384
01:13:02,049 --> 01:13:04,010
Mr Townsend is waiting.
1385
01:13:08,806 --> 01:13:11,100
You disappeared on me
yesterday, Gerber.
1386
01:13:11,183 --> 01:13:13,102
JEFF: I'm sorry.
I thought it was important.
1387
01:13:13,185 --> 01:13:14,437
It wasn't.
1388
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,148
Look, I want
a Negro representative.
1389
01:13:17,273 --> 01:13:20,067
But I will not tolerate
any lack of diligence.
1390
01:13:20,234 --> 01:13:21,360
I understand.
1391
01:13:21,444 --> 01:13:24,906
Good. Now, I want you to
turn over all your files to Brandon.
1392
01:13:25,031 --> 01:13:27,867
He'll service them.
You can still get the commissions.
1393
01:13:27,992 --> 01:13:29,702
This is the area
I want you to work in.
1394
01:13:29,785 --> 01:13:31,037
The sooner you get started,
the better.
1395
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:32,914
Any questions,
come directly to me.
1396
01:13:32,997 --> 01:13:35,625
Oh, er...
by the way, Gerber, er...
1397
01:13:35,708 --> 01:13:38,794
I notified the NAACP
and CORE
1398
01:13:38,920 --> 01:13:40,755
that we have a Negro
on our staff.
1399
01:13:40,838 --> 01:13:42,423
They're both quite pleased.
1400
01:13:42,506 --> 01:13:44,383
Don't let 'em down.
1401
01:13:44,717 --> 01:13:47,553
These policies aren't quite correct
for a man in your bracket...
1402
01:13:47,637 --> 01:13:50,222
I'd recommend that
you set aside a bit more
1403
01:13:50,306 --> 01:13:52,350
for your future children's
education...
1404
01:13:52,433 --> 01:13:54,727
I'm very happy to say that
for the first time today,
1405
01:13:54,810 --> 01:13:57,563
I'm gonna recommend that somebody
buy an insurance policy from me...
1406
01:13:57,647 --> 01:14:00,024
I strongly suggest that you, er...
1407
01:14:00,107 --> 01:14:01,567
invest some of
your widow's pension
1408
01:14:01,651 --> 01:14:03,945
in income-earning stocks
and bonds,
1409
01:14:04,028 --> 01:14:05,696
and I'd be glad
to recommend a man.
1410
01:14:05,780 --> 01:14:08,199
- He's white.
- Many people are.
1411
01:14:08,658 --> 01:14:09,742
Well, Gerber,
1412
01:14:09,825 --> 01:14:11,369
it looks to me as though
you've been giving out
1413
01:14:11,452 --> 01:14:13,579
quite a bit of free advice
these past few days.
1414
01:14:13,663 --> 01:14:15,289
JEFF: That's part of
the job, isn't it?
1415
01:14:15,373 --> 01:14:18,668
Oh, maybe, but on your first day
you made nine calls,
1416
01:14:18,793 --> 01:14:20,586
and sold one policy.
1417
01:14:20,670 --> 01:14:22,463
Three policies
you did nothing about,
1418
01:14:22,546 --> 01:14:25,591
and five policies
you re-arranged so that...
1419
01:14:25,675 --> 01:14:30,054
so that our company loses
$363 in annual premiums.
1420
01:14:30,179 --> 01:14:32,974
But, eventually, all those people
will become good customers
1421
01:14:33,099 --> 01:14:35,518
-only because I took the time...
- Oh, nonsense.
1422
01:14:35,643 --> 01:14:39,397
Gerber, those people don't know
the first thing about insurance.
1423
01:14:39,522 --> 01:14:41,649
You would be doing
the community a public service
1424
01:14:41,732 --> 01:14:43,192
to sell them
all the insurance you could
1425
01:14:43,275 --> 01:14:45,653
so that they would never become
a drain on our society.
1426
01:14:45,778 --> 01:14:48,114

I visited in the last few days
1427

1537
01:20:55,564 --> 01:20:57,816
JOHNSON:
One hundred thousand.
1538
01:20:57,900 --> 01:21:00,569
And that's as high as
we're authorised to go.
1539
01:21:00,652 --> 01:21:03,655
You turn it down,
we're not responsible.
1540
01:21:03,739 --> 01:21:06,200
No. I'll take it. I'll take it.
1541
01:21:06,283 --> 01:21:08,494
Where do I sign?
1542
01:21:08,619 --> 01:21:10,788
You'll find everything in order.
1543
01:21:10,871 --> 01:21:13,582
As you know, Walter's
an officer with the bank.
1544
01:21:13,749 --> 01:21:16,126
It's all pretty standard,
if you care to read it over.
1545
01:21:16,210 --> 01:21:19,630
I think this is the best thing
for everybody all around.
1546
01:21:19,713 --> 01:21:21,256
JEFF:
Oh, I think so, too.
1547
01:21:21,340 --> 01:21:22,758
I was gonna sell this house.
1548
01:21:22,883 --> 01:21:24,718
I think the neighbourhood's
a bit too Jewish.
1549
01:21:27,137 --> 01:21:28,972
Well, good night, Jeff.
1550
01:21:29,723 --> 01:21:31,183
Good luck.
1551
01:21:32,017 --> 01:21:35,312
- It's nothing personal.
- Oh, it never is.
1552
01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:38,649
If it was personal,
well, I'd feel real bad.
1553
01:21:41,402 --> 01:21:45,197
Good night, Jeff.
You have two weeks.
1554
01:21:45,406 --> 01:21:48,784
Look, if you have any trouble
and need to store your stuff,
1555
01:21:48,867 --> 01:21:50,828
please call my secretary.
1556
01:21:50,911 --> 01:21:53,789
She'll give you
the necessary assistance.
1557
01:21:55,207 --> 01:21:59,044
Good night, Jeff.
You've gotten a very good deal.
1558
01:21:59,294 --> 01:22:03,799
Perhaps... Perhaps it'll make us
seem less villainous in your eyes.
1559
01:22:04,216 --> 01:22:09,430
- Good night, Jeff.
- Villainous? Don't be silly.
1560
01:22:09,555 --> 01:22:11,306
I know who my friends are.
1561
01:22:11,390 --> 01:22:14,309
And the next nice neighbourhood
I move into,
1562
01:22:14,393 --> 01:22:17,062
you guys'll get
first crack at me.
1563

01:22:25,737 --> 01:22:28,365
Now, all I gotta do is turn white.
1566
01:22:29,324 --> 01:22:32,119
Boy, would their faces be red!
1567
01:22:35,372 --> 01:22:38,333
You took advantage of them
because you're coloured.
1568
01:22:38,500 --> 01:22:41,837
- How's that?
- Those people were our friends.
1569
01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:43,922
What should I have done?
Given 'em a discount?
1570
01:22:44,006 --> 01:22:45,007
Pushing your way.
1571
01:22:45,132 --> 01:22:47,759
Just pushing, pushing, pushing.
Is that the answer?
1572
01:22:47,843 --> 01:22:50,053
They wanted us
out of the neighbourhood!
1573
01:22:50,137 --> 01:22:53,849
Where do you get that "us" stuff?
You, not us!
1574
01:22:53,974 --> 01:22:56,727
Would you repeat that again?
I don't think I heard that right.
1575
01:22:59,813 --> 01:23:01,940
It's very confusing.
1576
01:23:03,066 --> 01:23:04,193
Forgive me, I...
1577
01:23:04,318 --> 01:23:06,570
There's been a great deal
of pressure on me lately.
1578
01:23:06,653 --> 01:23:08,405
I mean, just answering the phones...
1579
01:23:08,489 --> 01:23:12,284
Well, I haven't been exactly winning
any popularity contests myself.
1580
01:23:12,367 --> 01:23:15,704
Well, it's... it's different with you.
You weren't liked before this happened.
1581
01:23:15,787 --> 01:23:19,750
I was liked. Everybody liked me.
Everybody!
1582
01:23:19,833 --> 01:23:23,295
I hate to tell you this,
but you're supposed to be on my side.
1583
01:23:23,420 --> 01:23:26,507
The marriage contract said
"till death do us part".
1584
01:23:26,590 --> 01:23:29,468
It said that in
black and white, I believe.
1585
01:23:29,593 --> 01:23:32,221
When we got married,
I had no idea it was going to be
1586
01:23:32,304 --> 01:23:34,723
an inter-racial thing.
You never told me.
1587
01:23:34,806 --> 01:23:36,475
Well, I just got wind of it myself.
1588
01:23:36,558 --> 01:23:38,060
If I had known
what was gonna happen,
1589
01:23:38,143 --> 01:23:40,646
I would have put in an escape clause
in your marriage contract.
1590
01:23:40,729 --> 01:23:44,233
"If my husband becomes
a Negro, all bets are off."
1591
01:23:44,316 --> 01:23:47,069
How dare you be sarcastic with me?
1592
01:23:47,152 --> 01:23:49,196
I'm the one who was compromised!
1593
01:23:49,279 --> 01:23:51,073
Oh, I'm not angry.
How could I be angry?
1594
01:23:51,156 --> 01:23:52,699
I have a hundred thousand
dollar suntan.
1595
01:23:52,783 --> 01:23:55,077
And why do you insist on being Negro?
1596
01:23:55,244 --> 01:23:57,037
I don't insist. I accept it.
1597
01:23:57,746 --> 01:24:01,083
What would you have me do,
dye my hair and insist I'm white?
1598
01:24:01,166 --> 01:24:04,044
You know what I'd look like
with blond hair, Althea?
1599
01:24:04,127 --> 01:24:06,004
Like a grilled cheese sandwich!
1600
01:24:06,129 --> 01:24:08,882
Negro humour always escaped me.
1601
01:24:08,966 --> 01:24:13,053
Well, we're learning a lot
about each other, aren't we?
1602
01:24:13,971 --> 01:24:15,722
Yes, we are.
1603
01:24:16,473 --> 01:24:19,184
What happened to the
flaming liberal I was married to?
1604
01:24:19,268 --> 01:24:21,436
I am still liberal...
1605
01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:23,272
but to a point.
1606
01:24:24,648 --> 01:24:26,275

It's Wednesday, and I love you.

I'm sorry, Jeff.
1614
01:24:48,171 --> 01:24:50,132
I have to get my bearings.

- Okay.
1618

Jeff, I sent the kids to my sister's.

Your sister lives in Indianapolis.
