Mr. Deeds Page #3

What are you in for?

I'm doing a one-nighter

for biting Ed the mailman.

The guy was trying to cast a spell on me,

like a wizard.

- Are you sure about that?

- I don't know. Maybe he was just waving.

- Who are your friends?

- This is Chuck and Cecil from New York.

I don't like them.

Okay. Nice seeing you.

I've never been to New York before.

I suppose I could check out the sights.

- Give me an hour to pack, okay?

- You got it.

I'll be the first guy to leave here since

Jimmy McNally went to Disney World.

See you later, everybody!

Tomorrow is "Kids Eat For Free" Day.

Don't forget to clean the highchairs.

Don't worry, I'll take care of everything.

- Go, have a good time!

- I'll miss you.

'Bye, Jan. Smell you later, Murph.

- Give us a card!

- Yeah!

"On my way to the big city

for a business trip

"Never, ever left Mandrake Falls before

Ain't that a pip?

"But while I'm gone

I know I'll miss you all a lot"

"So bring your rich butt back here

and buy us all a shot"

You got it, pal!

Take it easy.

The biggest story of the year

and we've got nothing?

Do you want to be tabloid journalists?

Because I don't think so.

You've got to be ruthless.

When I started out...

...I slept in Tom and Roseanne's dumpster

for two days...

...disguised as a giant carton of ice cream.

- I got it!

My source at Blake says

the company helicopter...

...took off from there this afternoon

with two male passengers aboard...

...headed for Mandrake Falls.

- Where?

Some little hick-ass town in New Hampshire.

But now they're on their way back

with three male passengers.

- That's one more!

- Duh!

That third guy's our heir. Nice work, Marty.

They were supposed to arrive

at Blake Media at 5:00.

But they made an unscheduled stop

in Connecticut.

I'm so happy I got the Big Bacon Classic.

Thanks for stopping. This is unbelievable.

- Happy to do it.

- How's that Frosty treating you, Cecil?

You got some on your beard.

I'm just kidding.

I got him big time, man.

I'm going on the air in two hours' time.

And I want that guy's life story by then.

I'm talking to you, Jim.

And I'm also talking to you, Babe. Babe?

Where the hell's Babe?

You missed another staff meeting.

Mac's pissed.

He won't be pissed

when I crack this Blake story.

- What do you got?

- Nothing. Do you have anything?

I'll have a lot more in a few hours.

You got to be a pal.

I need this story.

I'm flat broke and Mac is going to fire me.

How're you flat broke?

You make more money than anyone here.

- What did you blow it on?

- Shoes.

I'll tell you everything I know

over lunch tomorrow...

...as long as your club promoter boyfriend...

...doesn't try to run me over
