The Millionaire1955
Michael Anthony:
[Anthony enters a laboratory to witness Tipton, who is off-screen, holding two test tubes of liquids. Only Tipton's hands are visible to viewers] You sent for me, sir?
John Beresford Tipton:
Mike, you see here two test tubes. Each one contains a separate element, in fluid state, of course. Their nature prevents them from mixing. Now watch. [Tipton pours the liquid from one test tube into the other. The liquids do not blend and one sits atop the other liquid]
Michael Anthony:
[Smiling] You might say that, because of their attitudes, they are mutually exclusive - incompatible.
John Beresford Tipton:
[Chuckles] You might say that. [Anthony is taken aback] But at the moment, we are dealing with chemical elements. Now in this dropper [indicating a third tube] is a third element, completely unrelated to the other two. Let's see what happens. [Tipton pours the third tube into the tube containing the other two liquids] There. [All three liquids mingle into one liquid] In that dropper is a catalytic agent. It has the property of affecting and blending the other two elements. [Tipton puts the tube into a rack] There are people whose lives are just as dramatically changed by a catalytic agent. [Tipton hands an envelope to Anthony] Here's the name of our next millionaire, one of the incompatible elements - the human element. [Anthony accepts the envelope, smiles, bows]
