Express, leaving on...
...track 5, for Albany...
Father!
...Utica,Syracuse,
Rochester, Buffalo...
...and Niagara Falls.
- Are you all right, father?
- I'm fine.
- You should've let me come out to meet you.
- To see me get out of prison.
It's not a thing I want you
to remember.
You're home now, father.
That's all that matters.
- What is it, father?
- Mr. Colby didn't come.
- Did you expect him, too?
- Yes. Yes, I did.
Father, please.
Let's go home now.
I'll call him.
I'll call Mr. Colby
this afternoon.
Good morning, miss. I...
Excuse me, I'd like to see
Mr. Colby...
These are the
contracts.
Mr. Colby wants them right away.
- Excuse me, but I'd like to see...
- I'm sorry, you'll have to wait.
This is from the contract department.
They're for Mr. Colby.
- Can you tell me where I...?
- Just a moment, please!
These contracts are for Mr. Colby.
Well, I can't disturb him right now,
he's at conference.
How many doors and secretaries
do you have to get through...
...to get to see this guy?
Anything I can do for you?
Any number of things, but unfortunately
I'm here on business.
- Are you...?
- I wanna see Mr. Colby.
What do you want to see him about?
Well, he's been carrying out
with my grandmother.
I'd like to find out what
his intentions are.
If you have any business
with Mr. Colby,...
I have lots of business,
but it's all personal.
I'm his secretary.
His personal secretary.
Well, it just goes to show you
how far a girl can get it,
...she keeps her stockings
seems straight.
Don't get up, thank you,
I'll announce myself.
Just a moment,
you can't go in there.
Don't blame the girl, Mr. Colby,
whichever one you are.
She did her best.
I trust this is something urgent.
If you are Andrew Colby,
this is very urgent.
I am.
Well, my name is Robert Regan,
I'm an attorney.
I'm representing a client named
Emilio Canepa.
As result of your negligence driving,
...his push car load of bananas
were damaged...
...to the extent of
68$ and 72 cents.
You ignored my letters,
...so I brought you a little
invitation ordering you...
...to appear in my
district's court.
This, in case you've never seen one,
is the summons.
They're issued by the
city of New York.
Yes...
...I've heard of the procedure.
In that case, good day.
Oh, just a minute, Mr. Regan
Perhaps we can settle this matter
out of court. Forgive me, gentlemen.
I assure you, it wasn't my intention
to defraud your client.
I turned your letters over to my
attorneys, Porter and Griswold...
Porter and Griswold! They wouldn't
even take a bath,
...unless it involved a
thousand hundred dollars.
Mr. Porter's wife might
resent that remark.
Yes, I'm afraid she might.
- This is Mr. Porter and Mr. Griswold.
- Hmm...
- How do you do?
- How do you do?
For your convenience, I've brought you
an itemized account.
23$ for the damage of the push car,
12$ for the bananas...
Emilio Canepa doesn't think
this is funny.
Of course not. I'm sorry.
- Ok.
- I'll see that Mr. Canepa gets a check.
And a letter congratulating him
on his choice of attorneys.
Thank you.
Do you always attend
to this matters...
...personally, Mr. Reagan?
Well, I thought my client
I didn't like that.
Well, goodbye, Mr. Colby.
- Goodbye.
Sorry if I got you in a jam.
Anything for the cause of justice.
Say, you know you're a lot prettier
than the girls out there.
But, obviously, that's why
you're in here.
Obviously.
What do you do saturday nights?
Oh, play marbles with the girls
