Transcript

The Johnson Wax program was Fiverr McGee and Molly. The fingers of Johnson Wax and Johnson's self-polishing blow-coach present Marion and Jim Jordan as Fiverr McGee and Molly with Bill Thompson, the Kingsman and Billy Mills Orchestra.

The show opens with Liza. Quiet again at 79 Wispofista. Last week, Fiverr and Mr. Gilder-Sleeves sat down to play off their

long-standing grudge with a game of checkers. So we hope that's settled for good and all. Let's go and see what's happened since then. At the home of Fiver McGee and Molly. It's your move, McGee.

What's the name, Molly? I'm not Molly. I'm Throckmorton Peek Gilder's League. We're playing a game of checkers. Remember? Oh, boy. Why don't you concede the game, Gilder's League? I'm tired. You're tired. I suppose you think I'm enjoying myself sitting here in your house day after day, night after night.

After night why don't you move that last checker off the open fight like a man Why don't you move yours or better still why don't you give up and go home? I Can say with this as long as you can McGee You're as hard to get rid of us a fur on a donkey's tail

That's very good speaking from experience I suppose Now look here guilty. I'm sweeping war off But I'm so tired that I can't present it to... There's another part of black coffee, boys. Thank you, Mrs. McGee.

I'm so full of black coffee now. I breathe like a percolator. There's another similarity. You'll drip. Heavenly days, look at this room. Cigar, stubs, coffee cups, smoke, and you two with seven-day swissers. Aren't you shamed?

Well, gee. You see, guilty of sleep, ain't you, shamed? coming over here and making a gambling den out of our house. Go on home. I won't. Not this game has settled one way or the other.
