surprise to use it did to me because on
this trip Jack is living at one of the
finest hotels in New York
so now let's pick up Jack and Rochester
in the luxurious penthouse suite of the
st. Regis Hotel
say boss would you like me to get you
another pillow
no Rochester I couldn't be more
comfortable how about you are you
relaxed relaxed boys have my watch
stopped there wouldn't be any live here
at all well we're certainly living it up
aren't we yeah I think I'll get myself
another pillow though ah of all the
times you've come to New York is the
first time you've stayed at a nice hotel
yeah what don't that was used to stay at
the Acme Pleasant
Wow broken-down joint that was Will
Rogers who the reason I stayed there
because it was so close to the subway
good thing it was we had to use that
washroom well things are different now
hey sure you know if that's the right on
this suite is about $30 a day 30 are you
kidding this suite is $36 a day's hosted
in the closet
the Acme planner was $36 - but that was
for the season well we're really living
it up now
it's the manager this hotel
wow that's a saver look I hired you four
days ago when are you going to finish
painting this room well you see the
student takes quite a while you know to
mix the pay to get it the proper color
and texture so it'll flow off the brush
easily you know isn't that right
Rembrandt oh you're so right mr. Picasso
Rembrandt Picasso as Sam rim bread I'm
Joe Picasso well I'm going to the
bedroom and see what color I can hide
the paper say Sam no no you're Sam I'm
Joe Hey Joe wait plates coming back I
think I'd like both bedrooms redone in
feet hey hey by the way when you fellows
go home at night would you please lock
this door somebody's been sleeping in
those beds no yeah oh we're turkey
watching thank you goodbye
Oh
well that was a close one was I supposed
yesterday morning we just gotten out of
bed when the manager came in well I was
hit all by the time we got the buckets
of paint in the overalls on by the time
the manager came in you were up on the
stepladder and working on the ceiling I
know but I had a toothbrush in mine oh
well let's get these things back overall
so Pat I bought it the legs
well sit back relax again
you
how I'm sorry I thought the room was
occupied
yeah let's blow stuff up again no no
wait a minute Roger let's even leave
everything where it is no can be dressed
if someone comes in will be all red
again you sure go to a lot of trouble
just to save a lousy $36 a day
Rochester there's no such a thing as a
lousy $36 anyway I don't know how they
how do the manager find out about anyone
sleeping in those beds did he see my
pajamas not unless he looked out the
window I watched him at home on the
flagpole Roger I've begged you last
night
not to hang my pajamas on the flagpole
again why with a coal when you put them
on no but when I turned over in bed what
a mess
why a pigeon laid an egg in my pot if
that egg hasn't broken you'd be a mother
now Wow let's take it easy now for a
while
there you see I should hire coaches
leaving all about oh it's done wonders
what
Oh
here we have your club I know tank we'd
have been here sooner but there was such
a crowd in front of the hotel the crowd
why well somebody wearing pajamas hung
himself from the flattened pool Oh
probably gets a publicity stunt I'll
take mrs. Wilson's rap yes there you
know jack when you called me and told me
to tell Don that you were living in the
penthouse suite of the st. Regis Hotel I
could hardly believe it I know no I
heard you laughing that was the operator
a matter of fact Jack that's why I came
over I want to tell you how happy I am
that you finally stopped being so cheap
cheat
dad I'm not cheap I spend money when I
have to oh yeah what about that time
when you needed an operation you wanted
Rochester to take your appendix out I
did not I merely asked him if he knew
how well jack the important thing is
that you are living in a very nice hotel
now and I'm proud well I'm glad hey Jack

this room to use when we read you our
apartment back Oh Donna I just love

Stork Club yes and it's murder when we
get into a phone booth hey I want to
tell you that you have a nice place here
this is beautiful
hiya Rochester almost listen you know
Rochester I think it's pretty nice of
you to allow mr. Benny to stay here in
your room
this isn't his room at all I mean it's
mine and if you want to know something
Don Wilson was here a little while ago
and he was saw this room he was nuts
about it who Don Wilson oh fatso fatso
well that's a fine remark coming from
somebody who had a diet to go through
the Holland Tunnel
don't talk to me about dieting you and
your fat tongue you are well Jake I come
up to talk some business with you so
let's get outta okay now I in order to
facilitate matters I had all the papers
growing up good good now get a load of
this
the Jack Benny Jackie Gleason television
productions company say you you put my
name first why of course
and look at all the times your name is
mentioned Jack Benny Jack Benny Jack
Benny Jack Benny God Jack Benny agrees
the Jackie Gleason will be the producer
said Benny agrees the Jackie Gleason
will be the director what tech penny
agrees the Jackie Gleason will be the
star now weigh them well we first talked
about forming this company you said that
you were willing for me to be the star
well I agree I know I know you're
absolutely right I don't tonight but
since I agreed that when we made these
films you'd be the star well something's
happen what this would change your mind
I had lunch with the Warner Brothers
they were telling me about a gem you
made for them
called the horn blows at midnight it's
funny but when you say it it sounds so
harmless one of the water brothers
complaining about and replace that
picture show they make they made a
fortune they did yeah yeah they sold out
the cells in the lobby
Malevich aqui let's talk this over I
want to be fair sit down I think you
have just as much right to be the star
as I but I think we ought to take it
over take it up at the next stockholders
meeting and we vote on now that's
ridiculous how can that decide who's
going to be the star you and I are the
only ones that hold any stock I sold one
share to Rochester you are a snake
however I got an idea that will solve
the whole problem neither one of us will
star in the picture will get a nice
young horse oh why certainly that's what
the public wants animals look at how
well lassies doing in Francis the mule I
will get a good horse and we'll start a
whole series perhaps we'll call it The
Adventures of dollar how does that
strike your fancy well I mean if we're
going to invest a lot of money in a
series posing the horse gets old well
when he gets to be 39 we'll shoot him
dead
hmm come on pal sign the contract then
it's a deal
all right let me look at it you know
Jack I've got a confession to make
confession yeah when you first
approached me you know about becoming
partners with you I I wasn't too hot on
the idea I didn't want to be associated
with you I didn't want to get mixed up
with anybody is cheap and a stingy issue
cheap instinctive when I walked in here
and saw this expensive beautiful opulent
suite I want to tell you Jake
I was allowed to be on
well thank you Thank You Jackie very
much let's look over this
phone ringing Oh Rochester answer the
phone I just saw something I forgot to
