Jimmy MacDonald:
I don't know whether you've ever had anything like this happen to you, Dr. Maxford, but to be poor and unknown one minute and be sitting on top of the world the next minute - that's a feeling that *nobody* can ever take away from me.
Dr. Maxford:
Well, I'll be... I'll be... I'll be...
Jimmy MacDonald:
To know I won this contest because I thought up a better slogan than anyone else means more to me than anything else on earth and I'll tell ya why...
Dr. Maxford:
If you wou -
Jimmy MacDonald:
You see, I used ta *think* that maybe I had good ideas and was gonna get somewhere in the world, but now I *know* it. And that's what I want to thank you for, Dr. Maxford, even more than the money.
Maxford's secretary:
Is this the one you wanted, Dr. Maxford? The $25,000 one?
Dr. Maxford:
That's right.
Maxford's secretary:
When did they choose a winner? I didn't know...
Dr. Maxford:
I don't *know*. They bother to inform *me* about these things, of course! James MacDonald - is that M-A-C or M-C?
Jimmy MacDonald:
It's M-A-C, sir.
Dr. Maxford:
Oh, yesss... my... my grandmother was Scottish.
Don Hartman:

Mine's Lithuanian.
Dr. Maxford:
Here you are, young man. Eh, it is customary under these circumstances to have few photographers present - a couple of reporters and even newsreels and broadcasting machinery, but since we do everything around here on a very high, non-commercial plane, I merely take pleasure in giving you this small check, Mr. Mac - er - Donald. And that's *all* there is to it.
Jimmy MacDonald:
[deeply grateful]
Thank you, Dr. Maxford.
[looking briefly at check]
Jimmy MacDonald:
I don't know how I could ever find words...
Dr. Maxford:
Well, never mind about them, just goodbye and good luck.
Jimmy MacDonald:
[looks once more at check]
Oh, boy!
[turns and leaves]
Dr. Maxford:
[to intercom]
Now, get me Bildocker!
