- Mr Smith? - Here!
With this Willet Creek dam coming up. -
- You love this monkey, don't you? - What do you think? Now go to work.
No doubt my children could make this appointment.
Is filled with the wonders of nature.
Dear Senator Smith. I would like to come to your camp.
I yielded once before and was practically never heard of again.
- And reflects on the sincerity and sanity of the highest body of lawmakers.
I don't want to complain, but there's an institution called dinner.
- When Mr Kenneth Allen burst into my office -
Gee whiz, so many things happening all at once.
- I'd better hold this for you. - No, I'd better go. Good night.
There are a hundred good campsites. I suggested he choose another.
I'm sort of hungry myself.
But not too loud.
- Come on, father. - Chick.
Mr Lincoln, there he is.
- Mind telling me what's going on? - There's the principal actor.
You don't know any name offhand you like better?
You may proceed, Senator.
Was the only possible answer.
- Where are you running off to? - I'm anxious to get back to the office.
We're bringing everybody up from state headquarters.
I see.
- That's five dollars. - Yes.
The House doesn't like what the Senate did... stymied.
All right. You win. It's Clarissa.
They therefore recommend that the same do pass.
Read all about it! Jeff Smith lies in Senate!
I present the credentials of honourable Jefferson Smith -
I merely took him home. It's not my job to tuck him in.
- To educate them in American ideals and to promote mutual understanding -
The shameless way in which the deficiency bill has been delayed -
And lots of paper too.
Since he found out we're behind it, he's been running us ragged.
I appeal to the Senator. Is he fully aware -
Your friend Mr Lincoln had his Taylors and Paines.
The gentlemen are in a hurry to get me out of here.
It is the most spectacular thing in the Senate annals.
- See you in the White House, Joe. - No kidding.
I consulted with the head of the Department of Records, Mr Arthur Kim.
That's good enough for me.
Although, with all my might... I can promise you one thing:
That settles it. I will not be belittled by my own children.
And to Don Quixote.
He'll start asking questions.
You're a nature lover. Can you handle some sign language?
- Well, goodbye. - Wish me luck.
Seemed like a nice fellow.
That's great. The government's putting dough in too many places.
- May direct the serjeant-at-arms to request, and if necessary, compel -
Even if this room gets filled with lies like these -
I've got to see those citizens. They want a say in who goes to the Senate.
- Susan's an awfully pretty name. - Susan Paine? Oh, that's beautiful.
This way, Senator. Where is he? I told that cookie to...
If he starts convincing those senators, you might as well blow your brains out!
- I've seen filibustering... - This can't go on, it's ridiculous.
Same old dreamer too. One look at you and I can see him.
- Mr President, a point of order. - Mr President...
The House doesn't like what the Senate did... stymied
They went to school together and were very good friends.
Should I just stand around and let that drooling infant -
Sam Foley's dead. Of all times... Foley had to go and die on us.
Senator Paine said you'd help me. Now, what books do we have to have?
All right, now. Let's see.
And keep them spouting against Smith.
- Here it comes, Diz. - Yes, sir. You bet I am.
Right now he's the greatest hero. It's all over the headlines.
- He has been trying to plant damaging impression of my conduct.
Is nothing short of criminal.
That wouldn't be Daniel Boone?
A quarter of a mile on either side of Willet Creek...
I'm taking him out to see monuments. Might hit him on the head with one.
He controls everything else in my state!
Anything that benefits the state is mighty important to me.
Sorry, I was in committee.
So that I could sit in that Senate and serve the people in an honest way.
- Does not leave the chamber or stop talking.
- You go and tell Jim Taylor. - I will tell him.
You ought to be shown up.
If you think I'll go back and tell those boys in my state:
- For debate and a vote. But it has to wait its turn on the calendar.
Go ahead, be a senator. Mess up Mr Taylor's little graft.
- Not old Honest Abe. - And with Honest Abe's ideals.
I haven't been able to show him a single monument!
- Do you think we're getting anywhere? - Oh, yes, Miss Saunders.
- You couldn't. You've never been there. - You've discussed this with Paine?
He's powerful enough to control congressmen.
- I don't think even that would do it. - No point in combing my hair then.
Stop this nonsense. Go back to Smith's office -
Getting them together to find out what makes different people tick.
You get to your feet in the Senate, take a long breath and start spouting.
