[Music]

no operator no I was talking to mr. Joel

Smith in Genoa Italy you cut me off

yes Smith

practice again well next time you called

me don't do it in the middle of the

night yes I got your last story what's

wrong with you Smith am i spending

thousands of dollars for you to make up

things that the child wouldn't believe

Hyrum Holliday blowing up the Rock of

Gibraltar in case to a gypsy fighting a

duel with a dagger in Arabia now admit

it you made that up out of whole cloth

but it actually happened mr. Prentiss I

didn't make it up he actually I wasn't

born yesterday Smith or the day before

blowing up the Rock of Gibraltar that's

not even good science fiction what's

wrong with you but I guess I lost my

head mister yeah well next time don't

try to fool an old hand and Smith don't

send in another story without proof

pictures you understand and stay away

from that Italian wine

[Music]

how's mr. Prentiss Joe

harem if you blow up the rocket

Gibraltar take a picture for me of

course y'all I think I've got it working

now what your camera the holiday

retroactive compensating zoom clearly

interview from any distance I'm forced

to pursue it by means of this spring

device a nature hunt for the elusive

Italian pocket gopher headstrong lemming

and the shy but determined field mouse

care to come along I think I'll stay

here huh I've had enough excitement for

one day

oh well to quote Julius Caesar

arrivederci

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

so I must apologize for intruding my

name is Hiram Holliday I will take that

picture I believe there's been a slight

misunderstanding I didn't come in here

to take a picture of you and your friend

hmm not that I don't consider you both

photogenic

no need give it to me i intruded because

i was on the trail of one of the family

Mira died who who came in here under the

tendon I followed him in international

law that's known as the doctrine of hot

pursuit I'm deadly serious

the Japanese dancing mouse actually only

appears to dance because of a defect in

his equilibrium is more to be pitied

than gesture that to do with your

picture of the dancing mouse well if it

turns out well it should have

considerable news value for my paper

the New York Chronicle so you work for a

newspaper yes naturally I'll be glad to

send both you gentlemen copies of the

picture if you'll give me your names and

addresses I'm sure we will be happy to

oblige well it was just a thought now if

you'll excuse me the picture or you do

not leave here alive

we cannot get off the grounds I warned

you tre go I told you I chained to the

pier returning to your former country as

their head of state Alexander shall we

say not bright

and my need for bunking chief of staff

general Draco he came out of nowhere

holiday we have him bottled up he cannot

get to the police

hi I'm holiday is not a man would go to

the police a lone hand company of

carbonelli would have been far easier to

deal with your best live high on holiday

- Marlene you will find him money huh no

he was fine me

[Music]

it looks quite empty discourteous my

sunglasses on the washed and you

wouldn't confirm I'm making a call a

short-duration

my call is important course Hey what

nothing Eddie doing here

hyrum how's the nature huh I believe I

have a photograph of some value jaw at

least there are a number of individuals

who are trying to take it from me

forcibly oh where are you at the

carnival grounds

alright give me all the details well I

was trying to

[Music]

all about you do you think you should be

looking at that well I'm very fond of

we meet again higher on holiday

releasing I thought I left your parents

in the Bastille how could they hold me

Hiram

you ate the evidence remember yes that's

true

and here you are again and difficulty

you have a picture we must have produce

it or die I feel I should warn you about

your choice of companions search him if

compelled I shall resist Bandini no not

here why I have been a place less public

and more quiet in where do you hire I

shall be most because waste the tunnel

love with you alone Bandini and I shall

act as chaperones oh thank you that's

quite a relief

[Music]

[Music]

yes

[Music]

I rather thought I could beat you at the

police station where are you

I have temporarily eluded my pursuers

the girl too I have no time to defend my

reputation I think I know the identity

of the man whose picture I took while

photographing the Japanese dancing mouse

what

I'll never mind his name is Alexander

the former dictator of Bolivia harem

that man is in Paris he's not even

allowed to leave France nevertheless I

took his picture in Genoa I believe an

international coup is in the making

have you got the picture I have it in a

safe place well if you've got proof arm

just call the parents please Joel and

then call me back here the number is one

two five seven nine goodbye I was home

holiday see it seems that while

photographing a Japanese dancing mouse

and you also got a picture of them

example board radium fighting a

revolution many like

and weird to call the Paris police just

to make sure it was all exactly now

leads into the Med or led them to the

Ventana mouth the man then we call him

back haider the man

be glad to recommend the capable

psychiatrist they're coming

dragwon Bandini go through there quickly

suppose so

not easy

what I suppose the only way to learn is

to do it

who came out of the tunnel of love oh

yeah is he a friend of yours

yes have you seen him of course you find

my sunglasses officer please I have

reason to believe that he might be in

danger danger hardly he ducked out for

good time

catch he doesnot the job

nothing is a boss if he jumps is a

buffoon

[Music]

but he certainly does have fun

[Music]

[Applause]

senior if you have a de picture you have

another great favor to honor you could I

have it picture yes I refer to it as a

postcard subterfuge at the moment the

postcard I mailed it to my little nephew

horrible collect stamps that all right

yes perfectly

[Music]

fantastic mr. Prentiss most fantastic

drivel I've ever seen what is the matter

with you Smith you send me three pages

of wild nonsense about a photograph that

Holliday took and you don't send the

picture where is the proof

but there's proof just contact the small

boy in Des Moines horrible Huckabee he's

got the picture in the foreground you'll

see a Japanese dancing mouse hung up I'm

sorry Joel but the block was foiled

out my new camera on a nature hunt with

mrs. Huckabee oh okay come along

have the strength
