That'll 946 00:58:01,716 --> 00:58:03,973 make them talk. You're on your own, kids. 947 00:58:04,073 --> 00:58:04,874 Fine friend! 948 00:58:04,898 --> 00:58:07,373 Come on, Fred. I want them to be alone. 949 00:58:07,473 --> 00:58:10,249 - This is my fiancée, Kathy Lacey. - How do you do? 950 00:58:10,273 --> 00:58:15,473 I'm Phil green. John minify has been wanting to get us together. Oh, yes, yes... 951 00:58:15,573 --> 00:58:18,249 - Yes! He told me he did. - How do you do? 952 00:58:18,273 --> 00:58:20,780 I'm doing a series for him on anti-semitism. 953 00:58:20,804 --> 00:58:21,804 For or against? 954 00:58:21,973 --> 00:58:25,073 Well, he thought that we might hash over some ideas. 955 00:58:25,173 --> 00:58:28,273 - What sort of ideas? - Palestine. For instance, zionism. 956 00:58:28,373 --> 00:58:30,569 Which? Palestine as a refuge or 957 00:58:30,593 --> 00:58:33,673 zionism as a movement for a Jewish state? 958 00:58:33,773 --> 00:58:35,410 The confusion between the two. 959 00:58:35,434 --> 00:58:37,873 If we agree there's confusion, we can talk. 960 00:58:37,973 --> 00:58:40,692 We scientists love confusion. But right now 961 00:58:40,716 --> 00:58:43,249 I'm starting on a new crusade of my own. 962 00:58:43,273 --> 00:58:46,949 You see, I have no religion, so I'm not Jewish by religion. 963 00:58:46,973 --> 00:58:49,101 Further, I'm a scientist, so I must rely on 964 00:58:49,125 --> 00:58:51,473 science that tells me I'm not Jewish by race... 965 00:58:51,573 --> 00:58:54,252 since there's no such thing as a distinct 966 00:58:54,276 --> 00:58:57,173 Jewish race. There's not even a Jewish type. 967 00:58:57,273 --> 00:59:00,249 Well, my crusade will have a certain charm. I 968 00:59:00,273 --> 00:59:03,273 will simply go forth and state I'm not a Jew. 969 00:59:03,373 --> 00:59:05,841 With my face, that becomes not an evasion, 970 00:59:05,865 --> 00:59:08,449 but a new principle. A scientific principle. 971 00:59:08,473 --> 00:59:10,673 - For a scientific age. - Precisely. 972 00:59:10,973 --> 00:59:13,218 There must be millions of people nowadays 973 00:59:13,242 --> 00:59:15,673 who are religious only in the vaguest sense. 974 00:59:15,773 --> 00:59:18,452 I've often wondered why the Jewish 975 00:59:18,476 --> 00:59:21,873 ones among them still call themselves Jews. 976 00:59:21,973 --> 00:59:25,173 - Can you guess why, mr green? - No, but I'd like to know. 977 00:59:25,273 --> 00:59:29,773 Because the world still makes it an advantage not to be one. 978 00:59:29,873 --> 00:59:32,149 Thus, for many of us, it becomes a matter 979 00:59:32,173 --> 00:59:34,473 of pride to go on calling ourselves Jews. 980 00:59:34,573 --> 00:59:38,949 So, you see, I will have to abandon my crusade before it begins. 981 00:59:38,973 --> 00:59:42,673 Only if there were no anti-semites could I go on with it. 982 00:59:42,773 --> 00:59:46,873 And now I would like to try another little scientific experiment. 983 00:59:46,973 --> 00:59:48,887 I wonder whether you would leave me 984 00:59:48,911 --> 00:59:51,173 alone with your very beautiful fiancée... 985 00:59:51,273 --> 00:59:53,749 - while you got me a plate of food. - Well... 986 00:59:53,773 --> 00:59:57,673 - Both in the interests of science. - Anything for science, professor. 987 00:59:57,773 --> 01:00:00,373 I'm John minify's niece, Kathy Lacey. 988 01:00:00,473 --> 01:00:02,473 And a little onion. 989 01:00:02,573 --> 01:00:05,349 - There. Now go play with that, Fred. - Thank you. 990 01:00:05,373 --> 01:00:08,373 This is not my third trip round, it's for lieberman. 991 01:00:08,473 --> 01:00:11,149 Who's counting? I'll fix him some caviar. 992 01:00:11,173 --> 01:00:12,073 Caviar? 993 01:00:12,173 --> 01:00:14,573 It's all deductible from my income tax, dear. 994 01:00:14,673 --> 01:00:17,373 I have to give parties to see what women wear. Get it? 995 01:00:17,473 --> 01:00:19,673 - You old crook. - Young crook, please! 996 01:00:19,773 --> 01:00:24,249 - Ok. How do you like my girl? - She's lovely. 997 01:00:24,273 --> 01:00:26,711 Is it serious or just the first rapture? 998 01:00:26,735 --> 01:00:29,373 It's serious. We'll be married any minute. 999 01:00:29,473 --> 01:00:31,317 My congratulations, you wilful, 1000 01:00:31,341 --> 01:00:33,849 headstrong fellow. When did this happen? 1001 01:00:33,873 --> 01:00:37,573 First time we looked at each other, I guess. Third day I came to New York. 1002 01:00:37,673 --> 01:00:40,199 Tall buildings and traffic didn't scare you? 1003 01:00:40,223 --> 01:00:41,073 Not a bit. 1004 01:00:41,173 --> 01:00:42,943 I brushed the hay and straw out of 1005 01:00:42,967 --> 01:00:45,149 my hair and fell in love with a city girl. 1006 01:00:45,173 --> 01:00:48,473 You could crawl right into the Saturday evening post, 1007 01:00:48,573 --> 01:00:50,549 have you met her sister and the rest? 1008 01:00:50,573 --> 01:00:51,873 Not yet. You know them? 1009 01:00:51,973 --> 01:00:54,549 Slightly. You're gonna meet them soon? 1010 01:00:54,573 --> 01:00:56,178 Next week, I think. Why? 1011 01:00:56,202 --> 01:00:59,273 Oh, I'd like the newsreel rights, that's all. 1012 01:00:59,373 --> 01:01:02,349 - Why? What's the matter with them? - Nothing. 1013 01:01:02,373 --> 01:01:05,118 I just think it's a fine idea to meet the 1014 01:01:05,142 --> 01:01:08,373 family first. It saves wear and tear afterwards. 1015 01:01:23,573 --> 01:01:26,173 - Nice party. - It's even nicer here. 1016 01:01:32,373 --> 01:01:35,338 I've been thinking maybe it would be better if... 1017 01:01:35,362 --> 01:01:38,149 if you didn't tell your sister after all, huh? 1018 01:01:38,173 --> 01:01:39,278 Not tell her? Why? 1019 01:01:39,302 --> 01:01:41,673 Well, the whole business depends on... 1020 01:01:41,773 --> 01:01:47,173 my not making loopholes whenever it's convenient. I've already told her. 1021 01:01:47,273 --> 01:01:49,973 - You did? When? - Tonight. I called her from Anne's. 1022 01:01:50,073 --> 01:01:53,249 Jane insisted I let her know the minute you said you'd be free. 1023 01:01:53,273 --> 01:01:57,073 You know it takes time to make arrangements for a big party. 1024 01:01:58,173 --> 01:01:59,927 What'd she say when you told her? 1025 01:01:59,951 --> 01:02:02,249 She thought it the cleverest thing on earth. 1026 01:02:02,273 --> 01:02:05,473 You'll love her. And Harry too. They're grand people. 1027 01:02:05,573 --> 01:02:06,834 But she promised? 1028 01:02:06,858 --> 01:02:10,173 I wouldn't tell her until she had. And Harry. 1029 01:02:10,273 --> 01:02:12,623 She just asked that you skip the whole thing 1030 01:02:12,647 --> 01:02:15,073 for the party, not bring it up.
