"Now wait a minute." "Here." "Here's what we've got to do." "I'll take this silver cover and I replace it" "Whoa whoa!" "This is what?" "This is a silver cover." "This is silver?" "Yes." "It don't feel like silver." "Oh yes it is." "Oh, that-- that feels like tin." "Don't say tin." "I told you it was silver." "When I say silver, I know what I bought." "I don't know what you bought, but you didn't get-- you didn't get silver." "I got silver." "They gave you tin." "Don't say tin!" "I don't like the word tin." "Well, I know, after all, if you bought silver, you should get silver." "You shouldn't get that." "I got silver." "You didn't get silver." "I got silver." "You got the other thing." "What thing?" "Tin." "Don't say it." "I'm telling you" "I won't say it any more." "I spent my life savings on that." "I know what I got." "Well, you didn't get silver." "I got silver." "No, you didn't."

"Now, don't you mention tin to me again!" "I'll never say that word." "What word?" "Silver." "That's better." "You thought I was gonna say silver, didn't you?" "You thought I was gonna say the other word?" "What word?" "Silver." "Silver, yeah." "I ain't gonna say it." "All right, don't say it." "I'm not gonna say that other word." "All right, forget about it." "This is-- you put the-- the silver cover over the-- over the bottle like that." "That's silver." "Silver." "Now." "[COUGHS]" "Huh?" "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"I got the breeze." "And over here, over here we now have the little glass, and over here we now have the bottle." "Now that could go good" "Yeah, I suppose that's-- that's cute!" "Hey Abbott, can you make the bottle go back over there and the glass over there come back over here?" "You mean to transfer the glass from over here, over there, and transfer the bottles from over there over there." "Yeah, make the bottles [GIBBERISH]" "[GIBBERISH]" "[GIBBERISH]" "[GIBBERISH]" "Silver?" "Silver." "I'm not going to say that other word, hot or cold." "No, I don't expect you to say it." "No more." "No, you're using [INAUDIBLE] now." "Certainly." "That's a boy." "You think I'm a chump?" "Oh, keep quiet please." "I'm doing the trick." "Now we place it over the bottle like that, and we come over here, and we place it over the little glass." "Hocus, pocus, alakazam!" "And over here we now have-- over here" "[GIBBERISH]" "And over here we now have the little glass, and over here, we now have the bottle." "So you see, friends, it's all done with a little silver cover." "That's why I don't like the habit of being accused of buying tin." "I don't like the cheap, very cheap article." "Don't-- don't mess with the trick now." "Now, do you understand that, Lou?" "Hey, Abbott." "You see, you take the cover and you place it over there, you say the few words of magic, and zowee it goes- -[YELLING] Ooooh, a bottle, come over here!" "Come on over!" "Come on bottle!" "[WHISTLES] Come on, now!" "You can't do that, Louis." "Now look, here's the idea of the trick." "[YELLING] Will you come on over, bottle?" "Abbott, Abbott." "I know what's gonna happen." "What?" "Abbott, make a bottle over here." "Oh, and just after doing it, I showed you" "Make a bottle over here!" "But I showed you how to do the trick, Louis!" "Never mind this table, make a bottle over here!" "[GROANS LOUDLY]" "All right, I'll do it once more." "But you watch it closely, because you've got to help me" "Never mind this table, make the bottle over here!" "Now, over here, we have a glass." "That's all you're gonna find over there." "Here we have a little glass, there we have a bottle." "You'll notice there's nothing in the little covers." "We just place it over the bottle like that" "Yeah." "And one's over the little glass." "Yeah." "Why don't we say a few words of magic?" "Hocus, pocus, alakazam!" "And here we have the glass!" "Make a bottle over here." "Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes." "And over here, we now have" "Abbott, put the tin thing back and see if you can find it." "I said tin and he couldn't even hear it." "Oh, shut up." "And here we now have-- we now- [LAUGHS]" "I have a little trick in cards here I'd like to" "I don't care about your cards!" "Make a bottle over here!" "And over here" "Let's make it smart!" "We now have the bottle." "Oooh!" "You got money for the rent?" "For the rent?" "No money." "The rooms use rent." "Oh, now, now, now, now, now, now, I'll pay for the rent." "No, if it's all right with you, Abbott, I insist." "Can I pay for the rent?" "Oh, tush, tush, I'll pay for the rent." "No, I insist I pay." "Oh, pooh." "I'll pay for the rent." "[INTERPOSING VOICES]" "I no care who pay!" "Well, then you pay it!" "I call the police!" "Police ain't gonna pay it." "Hey, I bet there's some stuff in here!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Look at this!" "Hey!"
