Here it is. I found it.

Consolidated Motors. Look.

Harold P. Cleveland, President.

Congratulations, Miss.

Whether you're aware of it or not...

you have just solved one

of the great mysteries of the age.

Listen to him. Since 11:00

this morning, it's been like this.

It means he's thinking.

He don't have to think

on the piccolo, does he?

- Oh, good morning, Mr. McKinley.

- Good morning, Harriet.

- Bring in your book and the mail.

- Yes, Mr. McKinley.

So what have we got for today?

11:
00 appointment with

Mr. Gallagher of personnel...

1:
00 luncheon with a representative

of the Blakewell Paper Company.

- I'd like some coffee, dear.

- Yes, Mr. McKinley.

Then there's your tailor, the barber,

the man about those shirts you ordered.

- And don't forget your pills.

- What the devil is this?

I don't know, sir.

I didn't have time to open it.

- [Gallagher On Intercom] Yes, Mr. McKinley.

- Listen, Gallagher.

I just got a letter from the executive

secretary of Consolidated Motors...

advising me that Harold P. Cleveland

will be in town Tuesday.

Will I please show him

every possible courtesy?

- What the devil is this all about?

- I don't know. Beats me.

Get Herbert in New York.

If you don't mind, I don't like it.

What the devil does the president of

Consolidated Motors want to come here for?

- Maybe he's just passing through.

- Okay.

But I wish you'd please tell me

what the devil this is all about.

- Have we ever heard of this bird before?

- Not that I recall.

Hello, Mr. Herbert? Just a moment.

Mr. McKinley calling.

Hello, Herbert? Listen. I just got a letter

saying the president of Consolidated...

is coming up here

to inspect my plant next week.

I'd like to know why all of a sudden is

Consolidated fishing around my place?

Well, maybe it is just a goodwill tour,

but I don't like goodwill tours.

So do me a favor.

Get ahold of whoever you can...

and find out if there's been a change

in Consolidated Motors' policy

toward its subsidiaries.

Maybe they've decided to quit printing,

make more cars or something.

Okay. Call me back.

I want every executive

in the conference room at 10:30.

- And cancel Gallagher.

- Yes, Mr. McKinley.

- Make three copies of this as soon as you can.

- Yes, Mr. McKinley.

Listen, gentlemen, the president

of Consolidated Motors...

is coming here next Tuesday

to inspect our plant personally.

I don't mind telling you, I don't like big

shots sticking their noses in my business.

How do we know they haven't decided to

convert this place into an assembly line?

And remember, you fellas are

in this just as deep as I am.

Your very jobs may depend upon it.
