Joseph Gribble:
[Miller and Gribble leave the elevator]
Gordon, I'm in a terrible spot: Mr. Wagner, the supervising director, is downstairs now inspecting the books! Gordon Miller:
Wagner? I thought he wasn't coming for another two months! Joseph Gribble:
[Miller enters his hotel room, followed by Gribble]
He walked in on me unexpectedly! He'll discover your bill any minute: $1,200 worth of credit to a shoestring producer! How will I explain it? If he finds out you're my brother-in-law, it'll cost me my job! Gordon Miller:
[apologetically]
It was a business proposition! In return for a little credit to me and 22 of my actors, I gave you a 10% interest in the show. Gordon Miller:
[cheerily]
Don't forget, you begged to get in on the ground floor. Joseph Gribble:
You mean, I was railroaded into it by you and Flossie! Gordon Miller:
[indignantly]
You do me a favor and kindly keep your wife's name out of this! Do you realize, you're talking about the woman you love? Gordon Miller:
[his mood lightens]
And besides, she happens to be my sister... on my mother's side
