the hell is it? You put nuts in it?
call the scholarship committee.
You know, I graduated in 1950.
And my son graduated in 1974.
My younger son graduates this year.
He graduates this year?
Time flies.
He'll work here.
As the vice president. Lock this.
- That's a good head start.
- He's a bright boy.
Very proud of my family, Hoffman.
Sure you are of yours.
I was wondering if you might intercede
and call the scholarship committee.
- It'd be unfair of me to do that.
- Unfair?
To use my influence. We make our own
way. I'm sure your boys understand.
It wouldn't be the same if they got
scholarships because of a phone call.
- Morning.
- Good morning.
- Congratulations! All three!
- Please, please! Any phone calls?
Yes. A Mrs. Blanche Rickey called.
She's called three times this morning.
- Blanche Rickey?
- It's about a homeowner's policy.
But she must speak
with you face to face.
Doesn't live too far from you, so
you could stop by on your way home.
- Yes?
- Hello. I'm Leonard Hoffman...
...United Marine Insurance.
- The insurance person.
The insurance person's here.
- Well, come on in.
- Thank you.
Forgive me, but I can read minds.
Not that I can really read minds,
but I think you're an honest person.
- Thank you.
- I'm honest.
- Good.
- You're very anxious about this sale.
You need money badly.
Do you feel that I'm trying
to oversell you?
I'm an honest person. Yes.
Lady, forgive my bluntness,
but selling you an insurance policy...
...is about as far from
my mind as anything.
- Would you like a drink?
- No.
- Do you mind if I do?
- Nope.
Come on.
- Here's how much this means to me.
- It doesn't matter.
In order for me to earn the kind
of money you're talking about...
...I would have to sell about 250
of these in the next week or two.
I don't usually drink,
but my husband's gonna die.
He's a sweet guy.
It got to me because I could
never give him children.
by not giving him children.
The doctor said he doesn't expect
him to live out the week.
Oh, my God!
Forgive my asking, but you do have
life insurance on him, don't you?
No!
- You don't have life insurance on him?
- No.
Well, why are you fooling
around with a homeowner's policy?
Because he's worried about it,
that's why.
He's worried about my security.
He's not himself. Now he's in with the
Chinese. I don't know what he's doing.
- He's in with the Chinese?
- Never mind.
No, tell me, tell me.
Well, he has all these debts. I don't
know how much. Maybe a million.
He gambles. He's an adventurer.
I'm not complaining.
