00:00:01,130 --> 00:00:07,Well, we're moving on up, moving on up,
to the side, moving on up, to a deep...

00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,My husband just lost his job, and they
just turned off your heat.

00:01:22,900 --> 00:01:27,Oh, I see. Well, um, how about $20?

00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:30,Oh, great!

00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:32,Tomorrow?

00:01:32,580 --> 00:01:35,Fine. I'll send it right over to you.

00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,Florence, maybe I'm not doing this
right.

00:01:44,220 --> 00:01:46,Oh, it ain't your fault, Miss Jefferson.

00:01:46,201 --> 00:01:49,I mean, it's just a coincidence that the
help center and Pope folks both need

00:01:49,650 --> 00:01:50,money at the same time.

00:01:52,090 --> 00:01:57,Well, if donations don't start coming in
and fast, the help center could go

00:01:57,370 --> 00:02:01,under. Hey, we set up the tote board.
The money's going to start rolling in.

00:02:02,050 --> 00:02:05,Oh, good. Now I can stop licking these
nasty envelopes.

00:02:05,570 --> 00:02:07,George, that's wonderful.

00:02:07,710 --> 00:02:09,Where are we getting the money from?

00:02:09,550 --> 00:02:10,All my friends.

00:02:12,131 --> 00:02:18,all over town. Any minute now, the phone
is going to start ringing off the hook

00:02:18,340 --> 00:02:19,with donations.

00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:20,Keep the lines open.

00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,The lines are open, George.

00:02:22,581 --> 00:02:26,You know, Miss Jefferson, you g***t a name
crossed out here, but it looks like a

00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:27,pretty fancy address.

00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,Whose name is it?

00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,Uh, Mrs. Lillian Warren.

00:02:29,681 --> 00:02:31,Lillian Warren?

00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,That means stuck -up old bat?

00:02:35,300 --> 00:02:38,I didn't ask for a bio. I just want to
know whether to mail it or sale it.

00:02:39,691 --> 00:02:41,Sale it?

00:02:41,580 --> 00:02:44,Look, we just didn't have anything to do
with that woman.

00:02:44,180 --> 00:02:48,George, It's been 14 years since I've
worked for Mrs. Warren.

00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,I think I should give her a call.

00:02:50,481 --> 00:02:53,Are you crazy? Have you forgotten the
misery she put you through? I certainly

00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,hope not, because I'm dying to hear
about it.

00:02:56,191 --> 00:02:59,Go on, will you? Tell her all about it.
Maybe then she can appreciate the way we

00:02:59,740 --> 00:03:00,treat her.

00:03:00,620 --> 00:03:02,If you need me, I'll be over by the
phone.

00:03:04,020 --> 00:03:06,Uh, Florence, I don't want you to get
the wrong idea.

00:03:07,420 --> 00:03:08,It wasn't the job.

00:03:09,060 --> 00:03:13,It was just that Mrs. Warren treated me
like I didn't have any feelings.

00:03:13,950 --> 00:03:15,Are you sure this phone is working?

00:03:15,710 --> 00:03:16,Yes, George.

00:03:18,150 --> 00:03:24,Anyway, she'd do things like, oh, I
don't know. She'd make these veiled

00:03:24,110 --> 00:03:29,accusations. And not only that, she had
this habit of marking the liquor bottles

00:03:29,590 --> 00:03:31,to make sure I didn't sneak any.

00:03:32,110 --> 00:03:37,Now, I could understand marking liquor
bottles, but cocktail onions?

00:03:38,750 --> 00:03:39,Lord.

00:03:40,370 --> 00:03:42,I don't see how you work for such a
miserable woman.

00:03:43,690 --> 00:03:47,Well, Florence, we needed the money. Oh,
of course, I understand.

00:03:47,690 --> 00:03:50,That's the same reason I'm working for
Mr. Popular over there.

00:03:54,310 --> 00:04:00,And you know what I hated most of all?
The way she'd call me her girl.

00:04:00,630 --> 00:04:03,I hated that more than anything.

00:04:03,830 --> 00:04:07,Let my girl do it. Or leave it with my
girl.

00:04:07,770 --> 00:04:10,Or does my girl have butts there?

00:04:11,839 --> 00:04:15,The nerve of some people. I mean, they
don't know how to treat their maids.

00:04:16,500 --> 00:04:19,One thing you ain't g***t to worry about
nobody calling you a girl.

00:04:22,620 --> 00:04:25,You don't have to worry about nobody
calling you, period.

00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:30,Miss Jefferson, do you mind if I take a
break? Oh, no. Go ahead, Florence.

00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,See what I tell you.

00:04:34,500 --> 00:04:36,George, that's the doorbell.

00:04:37,340 --> 00:04:41,Look, I know that, we. I'm going to call
Ralph and tell him to answer the door.

00:04:44,289 --> 00:04:45,Oh, it's you.

00:04:46,170 --> 00:04:48,Yes, and unfortunately, it's you.

00:04:49,510 --> 00:04:50,Well, hi, everybody.

00:04:51,330 --> 00:04:54,Hi. Oh, Louise, how much money have we
raised?

00:04:55,010 --> 00:04:57,Well, not enough, I'm afraid.

00:04:57,930 --> 00:04:59,I'm not doing too well myself.

00:04:59,990 --> 00:05:02,Well, you did make some money with my
ukulele.

00:05:02,370 --> 00:05:04,You sold it? Well, not exactly.

00:05:05,130 --> 00:05:08,On my way over to the auction, I dropped
the ukulele.

00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,So to make sure I hadn't damaged it, I
opened the case.

00:05:11,780 --> 00:05:13,People started throwing money in it.

00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:16,So what did you do?

00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,What else? I smiled and started playing
Sweet Leilani.

00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,It's Ralph.

00:05:23,780 --> 00:05:24,Mr. Jefferson.

00:05:25,860 --> 00:05:26,Hello, everybody.

00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:28,Hello, Ralph. Hi there, Ralph.

00:05:28,940 --> 00:05:32,You're probably wondering what this odd
-looking device is.

00:05:32,740 --> 00:05:36,Let me guess. It's a broom with a wad of
gum on it. To the n***d eye, yes.

00:05:37,020 --> 00:05:43,But in reality, it's the portable Ralph
Hart handy -dandy lost change retriever.

00:05:44,060 --> 00:05:45,Patent pending.

00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:50,Of course. Anyway, I've just come from
the laundry room where I did a little

00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,fishing behind the dryers, and let's say
that today they were biting.

00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,Get to the point, Ralph.

00:05:56,780 --> 00:06:02,The point is, I'm donating today's
entire catch to the health center.

00:06:03,860 --> 00:06:04,Oh.

00:06:06,860 --> 00:06:07,Thank you, Ralph.

00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:10,I'll boil this and add it to the fun.

00:06:10,781 --> 00:06:14,A quarter, Ralph? I thought you said
they were biting.

00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,Oh, yes, sir. But I had to throw back a
couple of pennies. It's the sportsman in

00:06:18,840 --> 00:06:21,me. Are you sure that's all of today's
take?

00:06:22,260 --> 00:06:25,Absolutely, sir. Well, have a good day.

00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:33,Look at all that money.

00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,Oh, it's a good...

00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,you promised us today's take, isn't it,
Ralph?

00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,Uh... Yes.

00:06:42,780 --> 00:06:47,Uh, I guess today's a red -letter day
for both of us, ma '**.

00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,Oh, thanks so much, Ralph.

00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,There must be at least $30 here.

00:06:52,060 --> 00:06:53,$42 .95.

00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:57,Approximately.

00:06:58,460 --> 00:07:00,Probably gonna get all this change up.

00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,Oh, George, why don't you ask Florence
where she keeps the Dutch pan?

00:07:04,220 --> 00:07:05,How would she know?

00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:12,Boy, talk about a spot with a portable
Ralph Hart handy -dandy lost change

00:07:12,020 --> 00:07:13,retriever.

00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,Oh, that change don't mean nothing when
all my friends start calling. Uh,

00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,George, any idea when that might start?

00:07:24,220 --> 00:07:28,Louise, is there anybody, anybody that
you haven't asked for money?

00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,Oh, well, uh...

00:07:31,740 --> 00:07:35,There's this wealthy woman I used to
work for.

00:07:35,820 --> 00:07:40,Well, I always believed that when you're
asking for money, it isn't wise to

00:07:40,140 --> 00:07:41,discriminate against the wealthy.

00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:42,Yes, Louise.

00:07:42,580 --> 00:07:45,If she's a prospect, why not give her a
call?

00:07:45,001 --> 00:07:48,Look, maybe I should give her my opinion
one more time.

00:07:48,060 --> 00:07:49,Watch the phone, Willis. Right, George.

00:07:49,981 --> 00:07:51,Okay, I'm going to say this once.

00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,And if anybody ever says that I said it
again, I'm going to deny it. Okay?

00:07:55,420 --> 00:07:58,There's some things in this life more
important than money.

00:08:03,210 --> 00:08:06,There is one thing in life more
important than money, and that's pride.

00:08:07,190 -->...
