Split Second

What are you doing here? Relieving you from duty as they say in the English war...

Larry Fleming: [as Charlie enters the room.] What are you doing here?
Reporter Charlie: Relieving you from duty as they say in the English war pictures. I'm covering the blast, and you're going to Carson City.
Larry Fleming: For what?
Reporter Charlie: [Hands newspaper to Larry.] They had a prison break up there.
Larry Fleming: [Looking at paper and sees the headline "Sam Hurley, Nation's No. 1 Killer and Accomplice Escape from State Prison"] When did he break out?
Reporter Charlie: Last night when nobody was looking. *You* are to leave *immediately.*
Colonel Wright: Have you been cleared to cover this operation?
Reporter Charlie: Not completely; we'd better get started.
Colonel Wright: Why does that paper of yours have to make a switch at this late date?
Reporter Charlie: Because Larry is out *big ace* scoop reporter, and Sam Hurley is big news.
[Larry and Charlie give a knowing nod to each other.]
Colonel Wright: What about the blast?
Larry Fleming: Well, Colonel, when you've seen one atom bomb, you've seen them all.
[Turning toward Charlie.]
Larry Fleming: My regards to your wife and children.
Reporter Charlie: [With a "singing" lilt in his voice.] Drive carefully.
Larry Fleming: Put cotton in your ears.
Reporter Charlie: [Sits on desk and looks at Colonel Wright.] Hadn't we just hurry like anything?
Colonel Wright: [Picks up telephone; in a loud, stern voice.] Get me security!
