If I Had a Million Page #7

Synopsis: Tycoon John Glidden, dying though still vigorous, is so dissatisfied with his relatives and associates that, rather than will his money to any of them, he decides to give it away in million-dollar amounts to strangers picked from the city directory. He picks a meek china salesman; a prostitute; a forger; two ex-vaudevilleans who hate road hogs; a condemned man; a mild-mannered clerk; a boisterous marine; and an oppressed inmate of an old ladies' home.

Well, I wash my hands

of the whole thing.

Nobody can blame me.

I warned him.

That will of his,

the one he made all the fuss about...

Well, right now,

there isn't any sort of a will.

Marvin, I'm going in there

and taking him home.

I've told him two hours' work a day is his limit,

and I've been waiting that long.

- Yes, sir.

- Open that door.

Yes, sir.

Marvin, what's happened?

Shut up! Shut up and go away!

- But what...?

- "But what?" Can't you leave me alone?

Can't I have any privacy at all

without a lot of doctors and secretaries

butting in on me all the time?

There's important matters

to take care of.

Let somebody else take care of them.

Pretend I'm dead.

- Yes, sir.

- What? Go away, go away.

Yes, sir,

Mr Glidden, that pie!

In your condition!

What's the matter with my condition?

Look. Two of them,

since last Wednesday.

- All by myself.

- What?

That reminds me,

I must make a note to Mrs Walker

telling her to lay off the apple pies for a while

and make me mince pies.

- What?

- Mince!

Mr Glidden,

I think you've completely lost your mind.

Do you think so?

That's great.

If I'd lost my mind ten years ago,

I'd have been as happy then as I am today.

- Now, Mr Glidden...

- Shut up!

Yes?

What's that?

Will I?

Well, I should say I would.

I'll be right over.

And listen, you save a place for me

right next to you, will you?

Thank you.

O, Genevieve

Sweet Genevieve

- Where do you think you're going?

- You guess.

Home to bed.

That's where you're going.

You know where I'm going,

you old medicine dropper?

I'm going for a hayride.

O, Genevieve

Sweet Genevieve
