and I'll hang on to the dishes.

With super-human courage

that defies anything else he's done before...

...he fights his way

up out of the pit...

...while the man-eating crocodiles

gnash their teeth...

...in rage at the escape of their victim.

- Gee, crocodiles. Oh, boy.

- He'll get away from them...

...like he did from those man-eating sharks.

Bet I could if I was Speed Foster.

- ready to strike.

Kadonka kill white devils.

Speed laughs at him in scorn and roars:

Throw that spear at me

and you die, Kadonka.

Kadonka, he big warrior.

Hold poison...

All right, lay one down there, boy.

I sure hope Frank gets to be foreman.

Hah. Boy, how we'll stall on him.

Or maybe you guys are too dumb

to know how to stall.

I guess everybody around here's

pretty dumb, except you.

That's telling him, Eddie, old boy.

That's telling him. Ha-ha.

Frank will do all right on the job.

He's got lot of good practical experience

in this shop.

Every time I say anything,

you always wanna start an argument.

- What is it?

- Don't be discouraged. Keep trying.

Maybe someday you'll say something

that makes sense.

Hey, Joe, come here. I need you.

Sure, Tommy. Anything wrong?

Nothing Dombrowski can't fix.

Come on. I wanna have a talk with you.

Doesn't that make you feel proud

and dignified?

Oh, boy.

Hey, that's a honey of a dashboard too.

Strictly airplane type, Mr. Taylor.

- Yeah, airplane, huh?

- Mm-hm.

- Good-looking cigarette lighter.

- Yes.

- Does it work?

- Sure, it works. Try it.

You get 18 miles on a gallon

with this car.

That ought to mean a lot to a man

in your circumstances.

- Oh! Yeah, heh, it works all right.

- Sure it works.

You get more for your dollar

than in any car in this country.

- You'll want delivery.

- I won't know till tonight.

- I'm getting a new job and a raise.

- Congratulations.

I wouldn't wanna sign

till they tell me.

I'd hate to see you wait too long.

This is the only light-colored phaeton.

Tell you what. You got my number.

Give me a buzz.

- Be glad to.

- Okay.

- Thank you.

- Say, if my wife answers, don't tell her.

- I won't.

- I'm getting this as a surprise for the family.

- I'm wise.

- Wait till you meet.

I got the cutest wife and kid

you ever saw. So long.

Congratulations, Joe.

Good luck, kid. Good luck.

Congratulations.

I'm glad to see you get it.

Best to you.

- Hey, Frank.

Come here and meet out new foreman,

Joe Dombrowski.

- Nice going, Joe.

- Thank you.

He won't feel like going. Best thing

is to leave him alone. He'll get over it.

Oh, come on.

At least we can try and help him.

- Come on.

- All right.

- Hey, anybody home?

Hello, Ed.

- Hello.

- How are you?
