1
00:00:09,676 --> 00:00:12,387
Oh, not so good, Connie.

2
00:00:12,512 --> 00:00:14,681
I'm so worried about my sister.

3
00:00:14,806 --> 00:00:15,265
Angela?

4
00:00:15,390 --> 00:00:16,099
Yes.

5
00:00:16,225 --> 00:00:19,686
You remember the story I showed
you in last week's paper about

6
00:00:19,811 --> 00:00:23,607
the eccentric old lady who
willed all her money to her cat?

7
00:00:23,732 --> 00:00:25,943
Yes, but what's that
got to do with Angela?

8
00:00:26,068 --> 00:00:27,861
Well, she just
liked that old lady.

9
00:00:27,986 --> 00:00:34,201
Angela loves cats so much that she made out
a will leaving all her money to Mr. Casey.

10
00:00:34,326 --> 00:00:35,285
Pass the cream, please.

11
00:00:35,410 --> 00:00:36,745
Wait a minute.

12
00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:38,080
Who's Mr. Casey?

13
00:00:38,205 --> 00:00:42,668
That's Angela's cat,
the one that's been ill.

14
00:00:42,793 --> 00:00:44,795
Oh, well, what's
the matter with him?

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:46,630
He had a fight with a terrier.

16
00:00:46,755 --> 00:00:48,257
Scotch?

17
00:00:48,382 --> 00:00:54,388
Oh, not before breakfast.

18
00:00:54,513 --> 00:00:56,974
Oh, you mean a Scotch terrier.

19
00:00:57,099 --> 00:01:00,060
Well, I really don't know,
dear, but Angela said she'd

20
00:01:00,185 --> 00:01:03,522
drop over this morning and
she'll give you all the details.

21
00:01:03,647 --> 00:01:07,734
Oh, I'll get it, Mrs. Davis.

22
00:01:07,859 --> 00:01:09,111
Good morning, Angela.

23
00:01:09,236 --> 00:01:09,528
You see?

24
00:01:09,653 --> 00:01:12,239
You just can't
trust those terriers.

25
00:01:12,364 --> 00:01:15,742
Good morning, dear.

26
00:01:15,867 --> 00:01:17,869
Sit down and have some
breakfast with us, won't you?

27
00:01:17,995 --> 00:01:22,666
Well, all right, but I haven't much
of an appetite at a time like this.

28
00:01:22,791 --> 00:01:24,251
I really feel miserable.

29
00:01:24,376 --> 00:01:24,918
Naturally.

30
00:01:25,043 --> 00:01:27,629
I'm sure Mr. Casey
was a very fine cat.

31
00:01:27,754 --> 00:01:28,797
To me, he was a person.

32
00:01:28,922 --> 00:01:31,633
And he can never
be replaced, Connie.

33
00:01:31,758 --> 00:01:34,136
Oh, I feel dreadfully
sorry for Mrs. Casey.

34
00:01:34,261 --> 00:01:36,263
He left a widow?

35
00:01:36,388 --> 00:01:42,602
She's a... She's a Siamese person
with black paws and a long white tail.

36
00:01:42,728 --> 00:01:44,563
Well, those are the best kind.

37
00:01:44,688 --> 00:01:47,649
I'm sorry I didn't get to
know Mr. Casey, Angela.

38
00:01:47,774 --> 00:01:49,568
But you spent part of
your last summer vacation

39
00:01:49,693 --> 00:01:51,528
at Crystal Lake when I
was there with Mr. Casey.

40
00:01:51,653 --> 00:01:54,114
Don't you remember
meeting him, Connie?

41
00:01:54,239 --> 00:01:58,827
We may have been introduced,
but I didn't catch the name.

42
00:01:58,952 --> 00:02:03,332
Well, as I recall, there were a lot of
folks from Madison High at Crystal Lake.

43
00:02:03,457 --> 00:02:07,127
There was Mr. Conklin,
Mr. Boynton, Walter Denton.

44
00:02:07,252 --> 00:02:09,880
Indeed they were, and they
were very kind to Mr. Casey.

45
00:02:10,005 --> 00:02:13,050
They played with him and
gave him milk, what is it?

46
00:02:13,175 --> 00:02:17,054
Oh, their kindness won't
go unrewarded, Margaret.

47
00:02:17,179 --> 00:02:21,099
I'm going to see to it that they're
remembered in Mr. Casey's will.

48
00:02:21,224 --> 00:02:22,559
In his what?

49
00:02:22,684 --> 00:02:24,144
In his will, Mrs. Davis.

50
00:02:24,269 --> 00:02:25,479
He was a perfectly normal cat.

51
00:02:25,604 --> 00:02:29,816
There's no reason
why... In his what?

52
00:02:32,736 --> 00:02:35,280
Now look, Angela,
you've gone far enough.

53
00:02:35,405 --> 00:02:39,993
It was far-fetched enough when you made out
a will leaving all your money to that cat.

54
00:02:40,118 --> 00:02:44,164
But this is positively
schizophrenic.

55
00:02:44,289 --> 00:02:49,336
My dear, you're
bucking for a butterfly net.

56
00:02:52,130 --> 00:02:53,715
Just what do you mean by that?

57
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,469
You're off your rocker, sis.

58
00:02:57,594 --> 00:03:01,014
Well, I never thought my own sister
would insult me, and I see nothing wrong

59
00:03:01,139 --> 00:03:04,601
in Mr. Casey's leaving a will in which
he rewards those who befriended him.

60
00:03:07,896 --> 00:03:11,358
He... He didn't
want it that way!

61
00:03:11,483 --> 00:03:13,110
Well, I don't care
what he wants.

62
00:03:13,235 --> 00:03:15,737
You just... Oh, my
goodness, dear me.

63
00:03:15,862 --> 00:03:18,073
Now, don't cry, dear.

64
00:03:18,198 --> 00:03:19,491
Calm yourself.

65
00:03:19,616 --> 00:03:23,912
You mustn't let yourself...
Just because a little.

66
00:03:24,037 --> 00:03:27,874
If people can make
out wills, so can cats.

67
00:03:27,999 --> 00:03:31,962
Well, don't arch
your back at me.

68
00:03:32,087 --> 00:03:33,171
I'm neutral.

69
00:03:33,296 --> 00:03:35,882
I'm so glad you
agree with me, Connie.

70
00:03:36,007 --> 00:03:40,345
I hereby appoint you
executrix of Mr. Casey's will.

71
00:03:40,470 --> 00:03:41,513
Well, why me?

72
00:03:41,638 --> 00:03:44,516
Because you have the closest
contact with the Legatees.

73
00:03:44,641 --> 00:03:48,019
Now, you are to inform Mr. Conklin,
Mr. Boyden, and Walter Denton that they'll be

74
00:03:48,145 --> 00:03:51,648
over here at 4 o'clock this afternoon, at
which time you'll read Mr. Casey's will.

75
00:03:55,861 --> 00:04:00,574
Oh, but Angela, when they were all up at
Crystal Lake, Mr. Casey was just a kitten.

76
00:04:00,699 --> 00:04:02,617
Why, you hadn't even
given him a name.

77
00:04:02,742 --> 00:04:05,537
So when Connie tells them
that they're mentioned in

78
00:04:05,662 --> 00:04:08,999
Mr. Casey's will, they won't
know what she's talking about.

79
00:04:09,124 --> 00:04:10,417
Well, I can explain, Mrs. David.

80
00:04:10,542 --> 00:04:12,878
Oh, no, you can't.

81
00:04:13,003 --> 00:04:14,880
That's part of my plan.

82
00:04:15,005 --> 00:04:17,757
Just let them spend
the day wondering.

83
00:04:17,883 --> 00:04:21,303
And I want to be here to see the look
of happy surprise on their faces when

84
00:04:21,428 --> 00:04:24,848
they find out that Mr. Casey is the
furry, four-legged person they loved.

85
00:04:27,976 --> 00:04:30,937
Well, it leads to some very
weird complications, Angela.

86
00:04:31,062 --> 00:04:33,398
No, I'm sorry, but
I have to decline.

87
00:04:33,523 --> 00:04:35,358
Oh, try to understand, dear.

88
00:04:35,484 --> 00:04:41,448
If you tell them when I'm not around,
I'll miss seeing how touched they are.

89
00:04:41,573 --> 00:04:43,950
How touched they are?

90
00:04:45,952 --> 00:04:47,329
You've got to do it, Connie.

91
00:04:47,454 --> 00:04:55,128
I'm not as strong as I used to be, and
who knows how much time I have left.

92
00:04:55,253 --> 00:04:56,671
I really don't think so.

93
00:04:56,796 --> 00:04:58,715
I promise.

94
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:00,759
Oh, thank you, my dear.

95
00:05:00,884 --> 00:05:06,723
Well, I'll run over to my attorney
and have the will drawn up.

96
00:05:06,848 --> 00:05:10,685
Exactly what do you plan to
bequeath the legacies, Angela?

97
00:05:10,810 --> 00:05:14,105
Oh, just some things that
Mr. Casey used to play with.

98
00:05:14,231 --> 00:05:17,400
They're not worth much
financially, but I'm sure

99
00:05:17,526 --> 00:05:21,238
they'll be treasured for
their great sentimental value.

100
00:05:24,491 --> 00:05:25,742
Poor Angela!

101
00:05:25,867 --> 00:05:28,370
She was so attached to that cat!

102
00:05:28,495 --> 00:05:30,830
Well, I'm sorry for
her too, Mrs. Davis.

103
00:05:30,956 --> 00:05:32,457
But there's one
thing that's certain.

104
00:05:32,582 --> 00:05:35,168
Neither Mr. Conklin,
Mr. Boynton, or Walter Denman

105
00:05:35,293 --> 00:05:38,129
will turn up for the reading
of that ridiculous will.

106
00:05:38,255 --> 00:05:39,130
They won't?

107
00:05:39,256 --> 00:05:40,966
Well, of course not, Mrs. Davis.

108
00:05:41,091 --> 00:05:42,884
They're people of integrity.

109
00:05:43,009 --> 00:05:46,346
Since the name Mr. Casey doesn't mean anything
to them, they'll say it's all a mistake

110
00:05:46,471 --> 00:05:50,016
and they can't possibly accept any inheritance
to which they're not rightfully entitled.

111
00:05:52,227 --> 00:05:56,106
My, but you are
naive, aren't you?

112
00:05:57,190 --> 00:06:01,444
You know, Connie, there's a
little innocent larceny in all of us.

113
00:06:01,570 --> 00:06:02,862
Innocent larceny?

114
00:06:02,988 --> 00:06:03,738
Yes.

115
00:06:03,863 --> 00:06:08,451
The desire to secure something for
nothing is a universal human failing.

116
00:06:08,577 --> 00:06:11,913
And I'll bet you a dollar that
Mr. Boynton and Walter Denton and

117
00:06:12,038 --> 00:06:15,584
Mr. Conklin will prove my point
when you tell them about the will.

118
00:06:16,626 --> 00:06:19,254
Well, I'd be willing to
bet a dollar that they don't.

119
00:06:19,379 --> 00:06:22,882
Oh, well, there's just one way
to settle the argument, Connie.

120
00:06:23,008 --> 00:06:28,471
If I may borrow an expression from
the chairwoman of our sewing circle.

121
00:06:28,597 --> 00:06:32,809
Put your money
where your mouth is.

122
00:06:32,934 --> 00:06:34,978
Well, my mouth is in my purse.

123
00:06:35,103 --> 00:06:36,521
But it's a bet, Mrs. Davis.

124
00:06:36,646 --> 00:06:38,732
One dollar it is.

125
00:06:38,857 --> 00:06:40,567
Well, I hope you win, dear.

126
00:06:40,692 --> 00:06:47,949
But frankly, I think you're heading for
a revolting lesson in human honesty.

127
00:06:48,074 --> 00:06:48,825
Come here, Dirk.

128
00:06:48,950 --> 00:06:49,909
Oh, morning, folks.

129
00:06:50,035 --> 00:06:51,119
Morning, Walter.

130
00:06:51,244 --> 00:06:53,830
Ah, buttered toast
and cakes and jelly.

131
00:06:53,955 --> 00:06:57,626
Sit down, Walter,
and fill your, uh, eat.

132
00:06:57,751 --> 00:06:58,668
Oh, thanks.

133
00:06:58,793 --> 00:07:00,837
I'm sorry I was a little
late, but my brakes don't

134
00:07:00,962 --> 00:07:03,256
work, so I didn't want to
drive over 40 miles an hour.

135
00:07:03,381 --> 00:07:08,094
You know, somehow I've got to
dig up 20 bucks for some new brakes.

136
00:07:08,219 --> 00:07:11,014
Here, have a sugar
cookie, Walter.

137
00:07:11,139 --> 00:07:14,434
Oh, well, if you
insist, Mrs. Davis.

138
00:07:14,559 --> 00:07:17,020
What's new, Miss Brooks?

139
00:07:17,145 --> 00:07:18,521
Well, quite a bit, Walter.

140
00:07:18,647 --> 00:07:21,232
I've just been made
executrix of a will.

141
00:07:21,358 --> 00:07:23,735
It's Mr. Casey's will, in fact.

142
00:07:23,860 --> 00:07:27,405
I know this is sad news
for you, but... Mr. Casey?

143
00:07:27,530 --> 00:07:28,406
Who's Mr. Casey?

144
00:07:28,531 --> 00:07:29,741
I don't know any Mr. Casey.

145
00:07:29,866 --> 00:07:30,659
You don't?

146
00:07:30,784 --> 00:07:32,994
Oh, then it's
probably all a mistake.

147
00:07:33,119 --> 00:07:34,454
What's a mistake?

148
00:07:34,579 --> 00:07:36,289
Who was Mr. Casey, anyhow?

149
00:07:36,414 --> 00:07:39,668
You're mentioned
in his will, Walter.

150
00:07:39,793 --> 00:07:45,340
Oh, that Mr. Tate!

151
00:07:45,465 --> 00:07:48,885
Oh gosh, what a
wonderful person he was.

152
00:07:49,010 --> 00:07:51,680
You remember him now.

153
00:07:51,805 --> 00:07:53,181
Oh, like a brother!

154
00:07:53,306 --> 00:07:56,434
How much did he leave me?

155
00:07:56,559 --> 00:07:59,771
Well, we won't know exactly,
Walter, until the reading of the will.

156
00:07:59,896 --> 00:08:02,774
That's to take place here
at 4 o'clock this afternoon.

157
00:08:02,899 --> 00:08:07,862
Well, I'll be here, Miss
Brooks, but with a heavy heart.

158
00:08:07,987 --> 00:08:10,490
It must be at least 20
bucks, don't you think?

159
00:08:10,615 --> 00:08:13,243
Oh, it's not that I care about getting
new brakes or anything like that.

160
00:08:13,368 --> 00:08:17,580
It's just that I'd
like to order them.

161
00:08:17,706 --> 00:08:20,166
You must have been
very close to Mr. Casey.

162
00:08:20,291 --> 00:08:21,167
Um...

163
00:08:21,292 --> 00:08:22,711
How did he look?

164
00:08:22,836 --> 00:08:23,962
Yeah.

165
00:08:24,087 --> 00:08:28,842
Well, he looked just
the same, Miss Brooks.

166
00:08:28,967 --> 00:08:32,387
You know, that one thing about
Mr. Casey, he never changed.

167
00:08:32,512 --> 00:08:33,680
Yeah, he knew he'd never change.

168
00:08:33,805 --> 00:08:37,350
In fact, I remember one
day he put his arm around

169
00:08:37,475 --> 00:08:40,770
me and he said, Walter,
I will never change.

170
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,399
He put his arm around you.

171
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:48,445
He had a very long
arm in those days.

172
00:08:48,570 --> 00:08:51,698
I don't think I quite
remember, Mr. Casey.

173
00:08:51,823 --> 00:08:53,575
Could you describe him?

174
00:08:53,700 --> 00:08:56,870
Well, in the first place,
you might say he was tall.

175
00:08:56,995 --> 00:08:58,204
No.

176
00:08:58,329 --> 00:09:00,999
You might say he was tall,
but you'd be dead wrong.

177
00:09:01,124 --> 00:09:06,129
You know, actually,
he was fairly short.

178
00:09:06,254 --> 00:09:09,174
As for a general description
of Mr. Casey, well,

179
00:09:09,299 --> 00:09:12,510
probably the strangest
thing about him was his hair.

180
00:09:12,635 --> 00:09:14,179
What color was it?

181
00:09:14,304 --> 00:09:16,347
Wouldn't you say it was blonde?

182
00:09:16,473 --> 00:09:17,599
No, I wouldn't.

183
00:09:17,724 --> 00:09:20,268
No, I wouldn't either.

184
00:09:22,353 --> 00:09:24,522
How does brunette hit you?

185
00:09:24,647 --> 00:09:26,566
Not so good.

186
00:09:26,691 --> 00:09:28,735
Then you might say
he was a redhead.

187
00:09:28,860 --> 00:09:30,737
You might, yes.

188
00:09:30,862 --> 00:09:33,948
Well, that's what he was, Mrs.
Davis, a fairly short redhead.

189
00:09:34,073 --> 00:09:37,076
And always laughing.

190
00:09:37,202 --> 00:09:41,039
Oh, I'm certainly going
to miss the dear old chap.

191
00:09:41,164 --> 00:09:44,334
It could even be $100,
maybe, or $1,000.

192
00:09:44,459 --> 00:09:46,211
I rest your case.

193
00:09:46,336 --> 00:09:49,380
I'll go get my coat, and we'll
take off for school, Walter.

194
00:09:49,506 --> 00:09:52,217
You know, poor old Casey.

195
00:09:52,342 --> 00:09:55,386
You know, Mrs. Davis,
I saved his life once.

196
00:09:55,512 --> 00:09:57,222
You saved his life?

197
00:09:57,347 --> 00:10:00,433
Well, yeah, I don't like to
brag, but now it can be told.

198
00:10:00,558 --> 00:10:04,854
You see, Mr. Casey
was in a rowboat fishing.

199
00:10:04,979 --> 00:10:06,523
He liked fish, you know.

200
00:10:06,648 --> 00:10:08,733
Sounds plausible.

201
00:10:08,858 --> 00:10:11,569
Yeah, well, he was in the
rowboat, and suddenly it tipped over.

202
00:10:11,694 --> 00:10:14,989
Well, he cried for help,
and in a flash, I jumped

203
00:10:15,114 --> 00:10:18,701
in, swam out to him, and
grabbed him by his trunks.

204
00:10:19,786 --> 00:10:21,329
He was wearing a bikini.

205
00:10:21,454 --> 00:10:23,998
Well, he struggled and
he pulled me under a

206
00:10:24,123 --> 00:10:27,210
couple of times, but I
finally dragged him ashore.

207
00:10:27,335 --> 00:10:30,630
And that's when he
shook my hand and said,

208
00:10:30,755 --> 00:10:34,342
Walter, I'm going to
mention you in my will.

209
00:10:35,385 --> 00:10:39,722
Your name isn't
Walter, it's Voltaire.

210
00:10:41,766 --> 00:10:42,767
Enter.

211
00:10:45,019 --> 00:10:46,437
Good morning, Mr. Conklin.

212
00:10:46,563 --> 00:10:47,981
Please be brief, Mr. Boyden.

213
00:10:48,106 --> 00:10:50,441
I'm a very busy man.

214
00:10:50,567 --> 00:10:51,734
Yes, sir.

215
00:10:51,860 --> 00:10:54,571
I came here to ask for
your assistance in a matter

216
00:10:54,696 --> 00:10:57,448
which I find extremely
embarrassing, Mr. Conklin.

217
00:10:57,574 --> 00:10:59,868
You see, sir, I've
completely exhausted my

218
00:10:59,993 --> 00:11:02,620
funds and I'm in a
rather desperate situation.

219
00:11:02,745 --> 00:11:07,834
If you're trying to put the bite
on me, save your dentures.

220
00:11:07,959 --> 00:11:10,336
Go west, young man.

221
00:11:10,461 --> 00:11:13,298
There's no gold in these parts.

222
00:11:13,423 --> 00:11:16,759
My landlady has demanded
that I remit $50 for back rent.

223
00:11:16,885 --> 00:11:19,095
For three weeks, I haven't
been able to pay her.

224
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:20,388
Well, don't be stubborn.

225
00:11:20,513 --> 00:11:22,765
Force yourself.

226
00:11:22,891 --> 00:11:25,393
Please, Mr. Conklin, I'm
not seeking a personal loan.

227
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:28,980
I simply want you to help me get my check
in advance from the Board of Education.

228
00:11:29,105 --> 00:11:31,399
Boyden, you are only a teacher.

229
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:34,777
They won't even pay a
school principal in advance,

230
00:11:34,903 --> 00:11:38,531
even though I've been
hounding them for the past week.

231
00:11:39,699 --> 00:11:40,617
You?

232
00:11:40,742 --> 00:11:42,327
Yes, me.

233
00:11:42,452 --> 00:11:48,958
It isn't generally known, but I am
far from being independently wealthy.

234
00:11:49,083 --> 00:11:50,752
Good day, Boyden.

235
00:11:50,877 --> 00:11:57,884
But, sir, I... Please go, before I
pelt you with a bundle of porn tickets.

236
00:12:01,512 --> 00:12:03,306
Anything else I can do for you?

237
00:12:03,431 --> 00:12:07,185
Not unless you can lay
your hands on $60 for me.

238
00:12:07,310 --> 00:12:12,315
Harriet, this is the final day of a
fabulous sale at Sherry's department store.

239
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:17,987
For $60, they are featuring a fishing
outfit that is the dream of my lifetime.

240
00:12:18,112 --> 00:12:19,489
Just $60.

241
00:12:19,614 --> 00:12:26,621
Oh, if some small miracle would
occur, some unexpected windfall.

242
00:12:28,081 --> 00:12:29,123
Hi, Mr. Brooks.

243
00:12:29,248 --> 00:12:29,874
Hello, Harriet.

244
00:12:29,999 --> 00:12:31,250
Mr. Conklin.

245
00:12:31,376 --> 00:12:34,837
Sir, I am the bearer
of sad tidings.

246
00:12:34,963 --> 00:12:36,130
Naturally.

247
00:12:39,008 --> 00:12:39,634
Won't you sit down, Ms.

248
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:39,884
Brooks?

249
00:12:40,009 --> 00:12:40,927
I was just leaving.

250
00:12:41,052 --> 00:12:41,886
I'll see you later, Daddy.

251
00:12:42,011 --> 00:12:42,637
Bye now.

252
00:12:42,762 --> 00:12:44,222
Bye, Harriet.

253
00:12:45,848 --> 00:12:48,142
Sir, would it interest
you to know that

254
00:12:48,267 --> 00:12:50,937
Mr. Casey has shuffled
off this mortal coil?

255
00:12:51,062 --> 00:12:55,108
I'm afraid it wouldn't interest
me in the slightest, Ms.

256
00:12:55,233 --> 00:12:56,109
Brooks.

257
00:12:56,234 --> 00:12:57,860
Who is Mr. Casey?

258
00:12:57,986 --> 00:13:00,154
I don't know any Mr. Casey.

259
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:02,991
Oh, then it's probably
a mistake, sir.

260
00:13:03,116 --> 00:13:06,619
You were mentioned in his will.

261
00:13:06,744 --> 00:13:11,541
Halt!

262
00:13:13,376 --> 00:13:15,670
Sit down, Miss Groves.

263
00:13:15,795 --> 00:13:17,213
Yes, sir.

264
00:13:17,338 --> 00:13:24,846
So, a dear friend has
left this veil of tears.

265
00:13:24,971 --> 00:13:26,222
What a man.

266
00:13:27,306 --> 00:13:28,599
Excuse me.

267
00:13:28,725 --> 00:13:30,435
Go right ahead.

268
00:13:33,271 --> 00:13:35,565
Poor old Mr. Clancy.

269
00:13:38,484 --> 00:13:39,027
Casey.

270
00:13:39,152 --> 00:13:42,155
That's what I say,
poor old Mr. Casey.

271
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,614
You remember him then?

272
00:13:43,740 --> 00:13:45,491
Do I remember him?

273
00:13:45,616 --> 00:13:47,827
Do I remember my own brother?

274
00:13:47,952 --> 00:13:50,955
Do I remember my
boyhood in the pines?

275
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,459
Do I remember my first dip
in the old swimming hole?

276
00:13:54,584 --> 00:13:58,129
Do you remember Mr. Casey?

277
00:13:58,254 --> 00:14:02,467
Casey... Of course
I remember him!

278
00:14:02,592 --> 00:14:05,011
Are you sure he's
no longer with us?

279
00:14:05,136 --> 00:14:05,845
Oh, yes, sir.

280
00:14:05,970 --> 00:14:08,264
I've been named
executrix of his will.

281
00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:12,560
Well, that sounds
pretty definite, all right.

282
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:14,854
Oh, this is a terrible
blow, Miss Brooks.

283
00:14:14,979 --> 00:14:17,398
How much did he leave me?

284
00:14:17,523 --> 00:14:19,233
Don't take it so hard.

285
00:14:19,358 --> 00:14:21,819
I'll try not to.

286
00:14:23,696 --> 00:14:27,492
Well, I don't know what he left
you, Mr. Conklin, not exactly, that is.

287
00:14:27,617 --> 00:14:29,535
Oh, well, who
cares about exactly?

288
00:14:29,660 --> 00:14:33,122
It's sufficient to know that dear
old Mr. Casey thought enough

289
00:14:33,247 --> 00:14:36,667
of me to remember me in his
will, even for $60, $70, maybe?

290
00:14:38,169 --> 00:14:40,463
Well, you'll learn the
facts this afternoon

291
00:14:40,588 --> 00:14:43,132
at my home when we
read the will at 4 o'clock.

292
00:14:43,257 --> 00:14:45,218
I'll be there on the dot.

293
00:14:45,343 --> 00:14:48,012
Tell me, how did
Mr. Casey meet his end?

294
00:14:48,137 --> 00:14:50,765
He had a fight with a terrier.

295
00:14:50,890 --> 00:14:52,809
I see.

296
00:14:54,185 --> 00:15:01,025
Now, there are several things
you should know about Mr. Casey.

297
00:15:01,150 --> 00:15:03,402
You could describe
him, couldn't you?

298
00:15:03,528 --> 00:15:04,362
I could.

299
00:15:04,487 --> 00:15:06,989
Oh, you could.

300
00:15:07,115 --> 00:15:10,701
Well, I want you to visualize
Mr. Casey in your mind.

301
00:15:10,827 --> 00:15:16,082
Now, are you imagining, or you are
imagining, a short man, aren't you?

302
00:15:16,207 --> 00:15:17,041
No, I'm not.

303
00:15:17,166 --> 00:15:19,961
Oh, oh, tall, tall.

304
00:15:20,086 --> 00:15:24,090
Now, about his hair, are you
picturing a blonde or a brunette?

305
00:15:24,215 --> 00:15:24,924
Neither.

306
00:15:25,049 --> 00:15:25,758
That's what I say.

307
00:15:25,883 --> 00:15:28,427
He was bald as an egg.

308
00:15:29,470 --> 00:15:32,598
Yes, yes, tall and bald.

309
00:15:32,723 --> 00:15:36,060
Now, although I was
very close to Mr. Casey, I

310
00:15:36,185 --> 00:15:39,647
once saved his life on
a hunting trip, in fact.

311
00:15:39,772 --> 00:15:45,945
I can't quite recall... He
had a fight with a terrier?

312
00:15:47,697 --> 00:15:48,948
That's him!

313
00:15:49,073 --> 00:15:55,580
How could that... with a...
Well, I suppose it could happen.

314
00:15:55,705 --> 00:15:59,792
It is strange that Mr. Casey
would fight with a dog.

315
00:15:59,917 --> 00:16:02,170
He was very gentle, wasn't he?

316
00:16:02,295 --> 00:16:03,462
Yes, he was.

317
00:16:03,588 --> 00:16:06,465
He loved animals, didn't he?

318
00:16:06,591 --> 00:16:10,094
Sometimes he did,
and sometimes he didn't.

319
00:16:10,219 --> 00:16:12,680
And he was wealthy, wasn't he?

320
00:16:12,805 --> 00:16:15,641
He was as well-off as
anyone else in his set.

321
00:16:15,766 --> 00:16:16,767
Oh.

322
00:16:17,810 --> 00:16:20,021
I'll bet he was as sly as a cat.

323
00:16:20,146 --> 00:16:23,649
That you can depend on.

324
00:16:23,774 --> 00:16:25,735
Well, I'm going to
depend on it, Miss Brooks.

325
00:16:25,860 --> 00:16:29,989
Please excuse me, I have to run
down to Sherry's department store.

326
00:16:30,114 --> 00:16:33,034
But Daddy, where are you going?

327
00:16:33,159 --> 00:16:35,786
I have been remembered
in Mr. Casey's will.

328
00:16:35,912 --> 00:16:42,877
I'm going down to Sherry's and charge
that fishing outfit with the old child.

329
00:16:44,086 --> 00:16:45,546
That's funny, Miss Brooks.

330
00:16:45,671 --> 00:16:49,050
Walter Denton just told me he's
also mentioned in Mr. Casey's will.

331
00:16:49,175 --> 00:16:50,384
That's right, Harriet.

332
00:16:50,509 --> 00:16:51,802
I never heard of him.

333
00:16:51,928 --> 00:16:53,387
Who is Mr. Casey?

334
00:16:53,512 --> 00:17:00,519
Well, so far, he's a tall, short
man with flaming red, bald hair.

335
00:17:05,358 --> 00:17:06,359
Hello, Mr. Barnham.

336
00:17:06,484 --> 00:17:07,818
Hi, Miss Brooks.

337
00:17:07,944 --> 00:17:10,071
I thought I'd have
lunch in my lab today.

338
00:17:10,196 --> 00:17:11,697
Sit down.

339
00:17:11,822 --> 00:17:13,908
You're perfectly
welcome to a sandwich.

340
00:17:14,033 --> 00:17:15,243
Well, thanks.

341
00:17:15,368 --> 00:17:16,827
Here you are.

342
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:24,074



343
00:17:25,878 --> 00:17:30,383
Thanks.

344
00:17:34,762 --> 00:17:36,889
Why are you looking
so glum, Miss Brooks?

345
00:17:37,014 --> 00:17:40,643
You know, I'm rapidly losing
faith in humanity, Mr. Boykin.

346
00:17:40,768 --> 00:17:42,895
I used to think that
most people were honest.

347
00:17:43,020 --> 00:17:44,313
Well, most people are.

348
00:17:44,438 --> 00:17:46,065
Gosh, I'd even bet
on their honesty.

349
00:17:46,190 --> 00:17:46,816
Yeah?

350
00:17:46,941 --> 00:17:49,151
Well, put your mouth
where my mouth is.

351
00:17:49,277 --> 00:17:51,988
No, that is not...

352
00:17:53,114 --> 00:17:58,995
What I mean is, I've already lost
66 and two-thirds cents on a bet.

353
00:17:59,120 --> 00:18:01,372
But somehow, as I
look at you, Mr. Boynton,

354
00:18:01,497 --> 00:18:03,916
I feel that I'm going
to get some of it back.

355
00:18:04,041 --> 00:18:05,584
I don't understand, Miss Brooks.

356
00:18:05,710 --> 00:18:09,130
Well, I can't go into all the details
now, but I've been named executrix on a

357
00:18:09,255 --> 00:18:12,717
will, Mr. Boynton, which I'm to read
at 4 o'clock this afternoon at my home.

358
00:18:14,677 --> 00:18:16,595
It's Mr. Casey's will.

359
00:18:16,721 --> 00:18:17,888
Mr. Casey?

360
00:18:18,014 --> 00:18:20,141
You've been
mentioned in the will.

361
00:18:20,266 --> 00:18:21,183
Oh, that's absurd.

362
00:18:21,309 --> 00:18:23,185
I don't see why I should
be mentioned in his will.

363
00:18:23,311 --> 00:18:26,397
You honestly don't feel entitled
to any inheritance from Mr. Casey?

364
00:18:26,522 --> 00:18:28,691
Why, certainly not.

365
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,363
Of course, I suppose it's all right
if he wants to leave me $50 or $60.

366
00:18:34,488 --> 00:18:39,660
After all, we were
buddies in the army.

367
00:18:43,456 --> 00:18:45,416
You were buddies in the Army?

368
00:18:45,541 --> 00:18:47,835
Over in the South Pacific.

369
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,464
I even saved his life once.

370
00:18:51,589 --> 00:18:53,591
You saved Mr. Casey's life?

371
00:18:53,716 --> 00:18:54,925
That's right.

372
00:18:55,051 --> 00:18:58,262
He must have had nine lives.

373
00:19:05,019 --> 00:19:06,312
Connie, you're late.

374
00:19:06,437 --> 00:19:07,480
It's almost four o'clock.

375
00:19:07,605 --> 00:19:08,272
What kept you?

376
00:19:08,397 --> 00:19:11,150
Well, I had to stay after
school with a detention class.

377
00:19:11,275 --> 00:19:12,610
Oh, that's too bad.

378
00:19:12,735 --> 00:19:14,820
How did everything
work out today?

379
00:19:14,945 --> 00:19:16,781
I owe you a buck, Mrs. Davis.

380
00:19:16,906 --> 00:19:20,785
Every one of them claimed he
was a bosom buddy of Mr. Casey's.

381
00:19:20,910 --> 00:19:21,952
Isn't Angela here?

382
00:19:22,078 --> 00:19:23,788
No, but she sent over the will.

383
00:19:23,913 --> 00:19:27,833
However, you're not to open it
until all the legacies are present.

384
00:19:27,958 --> 00:19:28,709
I won't.

385
00:19:28,834 --> 00:19:30,044
What's in the box?

386
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:34,840
The articles that Mr. Casey
bequeathed to the legacies.

387
00:19:34,965 --> 00:19:41,972
Well, I guess I better run over to
Angela's and see what's detaining her.

388
00:19:43,307 --> 00:19:44,934
Oh, they're all here, Connie.

389
00:19:45,059 --> 00:19:46,811
Well, I'm ready for
them, Mrs. Davis.

390
00:19:46,936 --> 00:19:50,481
Angela or no Angela, the reading
of the will goes on as scheduled.

391
00:19:50,606 --> 00:19:54,819
Well, I'll try to
hurry her up, dear.

392
00:19:59,115 --> 00:20:00,116
Come in.

393
00:20:01,575 --> 00:20:05,287
Good afternoon, Miss Brooks.

394
00:20:05,413 --> 00:20:12,378
Hello, Miss Brooks.

395
00:20:15,923 --> 00:20:16,924
Hello.

396
00:20:19,468 --> 00:20:23,431
This is indeed a sad occasion.

397
00:20:23,556 --> 00:20:26,308
There is no joy in Mudville.

398
00:20:26,434 --> 00:20:31,480
Mighty Casey has struck out.

399
00:20:31,605 --> 00:20:32,565
Very touching, sir.

400
00:20:32,690 --> 00:20:35,359
Won't you all sit down and
make yourselves comfortable?

401
00:20:35,484 --> 00:20:37,528
I'll... I'll take this chair.

402
00:20:37,653 --> 00:20:42,741
It's closer to the bank.

403
00:20:42,867 --> 00:20:44,452
What's in the box, Miss Brooks?

404
00:20:44,577 --> 00:20:47,329
Your inheritances
from Mr. Casey.

405
00:20:47,455 --> 00:20:49,540
Well, shall we commence?

406
00:20:49,665 --> 00:20:53,210
I, Mr. Casey, being of sound mind, in consideration
of the many kindnesses extended to me by

407
00:20:53,335 --> 00:20:57,047
Osgood Conklin, Philip Boynton, and Walter
Denton, do hereby bequeath to them the following.

408
00:21:01,677 --> 00:21:06,474
To Walter Denton, I
leave one ball of yarn.

409
00:21:06,599 --> 00:21:08,350
A ball of yarn!

410
00:21:11,854 --> 00:21:13,063
Pass!

411
00:21:13,189 --> 00:21:14,815
A ball of yarn!

412
00:21:14,940 --> 00:21:19,987
Congratulations, and may
all your troubles be little ones.

413
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:21,197
Thanks.

414
00:21:21,322 --> 00:21:26,494
To Philip Boynton, I leave
one slightly used tennis ball.

415
00:21:26,619 --> 00:21:28,370
Tennis ball?

416
00:21:28,496 --> 00:21:28,787
Huh?

417
00:21:28,913 --> 00:21:35,085
From your army buddy,
signed with his own teeth marks.

418
00:21:36,837 --> 00:21:43,844
Let us skip the booby prizes... and
get on to the major inheritance, shall we?

419
00:21:45,429 --> 00:21:46,305
Yes, sir.

420
00:21:46,430 --> 00:21:52,937
And to Osgood Conklin, I
leave one cardboard milk carton.

421
00:21:56,315 --> 00:21:58,984
Milk carton?

422
00:21:59,109 --> 00:22:02,905
What sort of
bovine jest is this?

423
00:22:03,030 --> 00:22:04,073
Congratulations, sir.

424
00:22:04,198 --> 00:22:07,451
This will hold one quart
of homogenized tears.

425
00:22:07,576 --> 00:22:11,622
This is how Mr. Casey
remembered us?

426
00:22:11,747 --> 00:22:13,457
These are inheritances?

427
00:22:13,582 --> 00:22:16,544
This is the sum
total of our reward.

428
00:22:16,669 --> 00:22:17,253
Everything?

429
00:22:17,378 --> 00:22:17,962
The words?

430
00:22:18,087 --> 00:22:19,171
The words.

431
00:22:19,296 --> 00:22:20,297
Oh, just a minute.

432
00:22:20,422 --> 00:22:22,967
I see there's one
more item listed here.

433
00:22:23,092 --> 00:22:27,555
And to Miss Brooks, I leave
all that is in my treasure chest.

434
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:28,639
Treasure chest?

435
00:22:28,764 --> 00:22:29,682
What treasure chest?

436
00:22:29,807 --> 00:22:32,226
I don't see any treasure chest.

437
00:22:32,351 --> 00:22:34,436
Open the door.

438
00:22:34,562 --> 00:22:38,774
Dad, it's the treasure chest.

439
00:22:38,899 --> 00:22:39,900
It's mine, Mr. Conklin.

440
00:22:40,025 --> 00:22:41,151
Mr. Casey left it to me.

441
00:22:41,277 --> 00:22:42,486
Well, let's see what's in it.

442
00:22:42,611 --> 00:22:45,155
After me, Mr. Boynton.

443
00:22:46,657 --> 00:22:49,535
Well, if it isn't Mrs. Casey.

444
00:22:49,660 --> 00:22:50,411
Mrs. Casey?

445
00:22:50,536 --> 00:22:52,538
Yes, and she's not alone.

446
00:22:52,663 --> 00:22:56,500
There are seven little
ones in there with her.

447
00:22:56,625 --> 00:22:58,294
Seven little what?

448
00:22:58,419 --> 00:23:05,426
Mr. Conklin, contrary to popular
belief, Casey did not strike out.

449
00:23:07,469 --> 00:23:10,264
Casey and her kittens are having
dinner together, all eight of them.

450
00:23:10,389 --> 00:23:10,973
Isn't that cute?

451
00:23:11,098 --> 00:23:14,768
A ball of yarn, a milk
carton, and a tennis ball.

452
00:23:14,893 --> 00:23:17,605
I just threw the whole shooting
match into the incinerator.

453
00:23:17,730 --> 00:23:20,858
Of all the ridiculous, asinine
bequests... Hello, folks.

454
00:23:20,983 --> 00:23:21,525
Hello, Angela.

455
00:23:21,650 --> 00:23:22,151
Hello, Angela.

456
00:23:22,276 --> 00:23:23,110
Let me take your coat.

457
00:23:23,235 --> 00:23:24,194
Of course, Margaret.

458
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:29,575
Well, Mr. Compton, Mr. Boynton,
Walter, did you receive your inheritances?

459
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:30,868
We did.

460
00:23:30,993 --> 00:23:33,454
Have you opened them yet?

461
00:23:33,579 --> 00:23:34,413
Opened them?

462
00:23:34,538 --> 00:23:36,999
Evidently, you haven't.

463
00:23:37,124 --> 00:23:39,376
Well, that's my little surprise.

464
00:23:39,501 --> 00:23:42,963
You folks were so very kind to
Mr. Casey that I decided to reward

465
00:23:43,088 --> 00:23:46,508
you by placing in each of the
articles he left you a $100 bill.

466
00:23:49,303 --> 00:23:50,304
What?

467
00:23:51,388 --> 00:23:56,769
Incinerator!

468
00:23:56,894 --> 00:23:58,103
Is that true, Angela?

469
00:23:58,228 --> 00:24:01,899
Was there a $100 bill in every one
of those articles, Mr. Casey Lantz?

470
00:24:02,024 --> 00:24:04,276
Oh, that's right, dear.

471
00:24:04,401 --> 00:24:06,612
Connie, where are you going?

472
00:24:06,737 --> 00:24:07,613
Where do you think?

473
00:24:07,738 --> 00:24:12,201
I'm going out and
vacuum those kittens.

474
00:24:21,126 --> 00:24:28,133
The.

475
00:24:35,432 --> 00:24:36,433
The.
