The Millionaire1955

Michael Anthony:
[It's 1950. Anthony enters the dressing room of Tipton's private suite, where the valet is just leaving after having placed a towel over Tipton's face. Tipton is only visible to viewers from behind] You sent for me, sir?

John Beresford Tipton:
Mike, are you familiar with Gilbert and Sullivan?

Michael Anthony:
Oh, yes, sir. I once belonged to a choral group which met once a month and sang the Gilbert and Sullivan scores.

John Beresford Tipton:
[Chuckles] Ah, I'll bet you were a first rate Nanki-Poo.

Michael Anthony:
[Somberly] No, sir, I was the Lord High Executioner.

John Beresford Tipton:
[Chuckles] Mike, this police action in Korea seems to be, in a limited way, one of the worst yet. Today's headlines give terrific bite to one of Gilbert's line, "I'll take one consideration with another."

Michael Anthony:
A policeman's lot is not a happy one.

John Beresford Tipton:
Yes. These young, global policemen, who are fighting for all of us over in Korea, for them is not a happy one. [Tipton hands an envelope to Anthony] Here's the name of our new millionaire.
