 The Jello Program starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston and Phil Harris and his orchestra. The orchestra opens the program with Swing the Jinks away from Born to Dance. Sometimes the easiest way is the best after all and when it comes to ending a meal, for instance, what could be easier to prepare and what could be better to taste than Jello? Grand refreshing Jello, adding such beauty to your menus with its six glowing colors, bringing such swell satisfaction with its six delicious flavors. Jello never fails to please, it's just as rich and luscious as fresh ripe fruit itself. That's why Jello today is the most popular gelatin dessert in the entire world. But remember, there is only one Jello and only Jello brings you that extra rich fresh fruit flavor. So get the real thing, insist on genuine Jello. Gentlemen, we bring you that rising young movie star, Jack Benny. Well, Jello again, this is Jack Benny of the Cinema, whose latest picture, the big broadcast of 1937, has just been released. By the way, Don, have you seen the picture yet? No, Jack, but I'm dying to. Oh, you ought to see it. It's playing downtown at the Paramount. Yes, I know. Oh, say, tell me, Jack, are you pleased with your work in it? Well, I, uh, well, you know, Don, I'm not conceited. You know that, don't you? Why, uh, yes, of course I do. I mean, you never heard me rave about myself. But really, I'll surprise you in this picture. Really? Well, I honestly believe that for the first time, the screen has captured the real me. Well, I'm glad to hear it. And you know I'm not egotistical, Don, you know that. Oh, of course I do. But in this picture, I'm really much better than I think I am. I don't know, I just can't find a word to describe my performance. Well, uh, Jack, would you say you were, uh, terrific? Well, yes, yes, Don, I would. And you know, Don, there's one big romantic scene in the garden where I ask the heroine to marry me. You know, I get down on my knees and I plead with her. I say, Gwen, Gwen, darling, will you marry me? And as the moonbeams cast their magic spell over us, she looks into my eyes and softly whispers, no. Well, I thought and cried. And, Don, you know when a fella can cry at his own picture, well... Uh, tell me, Jack, now, how do you look on the screen? I mean, how do you photograph? Well, I'm glad you brought that up. Uh, Don, you know I never brag. Now, you know a man. Oh, yes, yes. Well, I'll come here a minute. Now, don't misunderstand me. Uh, you've, uh, you've seen Robert Taylor, haven't you? Mm-hmm. Well, uh, oh, let's not talk about it. Come on now, I want to hear some more. No, no, Don, no, I'm acting like a kid. No. Then, Jack, you really feel that you've established yourself as the great screen-lover? Definitely. Well, to tell you the truth, Don, I was so good in those love scenes that in my next picture they're just going to give me a leading lady and a Davenport. Oh, really? Well, Jack, uh, now that you're established as a Hollywood star, how about a testimonial for our product? Oh, sure, Don, I'll be glad to. There's nothing high-hat about me. Now, let's see, uh, I can truthfully say that Jell-O is a four-star dessert. And I never go into a major love scene without first indulging in a dish of tempting, delicious Jell-O. Thank you, Mr. Benny. Oh, you can still call me Jack. Say, Don, uh, we're, uh, continuing with Anthony adverse tonight, aren't we? Oh, yes, yes. I want to speak to Phil about the incidental music. Uh, part me a moment. Love sends a little gift of roses. Hello, Don. Where's Jack? Well, he's over there talking to Phil. Oh, say, uh, Mary, Jack was just telling me about his picture, the big broadcast. Have you seen it? Yeah, and, oh, boy, what a picture. Yes, well... Well, confidentially, Mary, uh, how's Jack in it? Jack? Well, Don, you know I'm not conceited. You know that. Yes, Mary, yes. And you know I never brag. No. Well, he's lousy. Well, you know, he certainly changed since last week. He's not the same modest Jack we knew. I don't like the way he's acting. Neither does Paramount. Well, tell me, Mary, how does he photograph? Don, come here a minute. You've seen Robert Taylor, haven't you? Oh, certainly. I've seen him in a lot of pictures. Then you know it can't be the camera. I see. Love sends a little gift of roses. Oh, hello, Mary. Hello, dear. Hello, Ham. Oh, Ham, eh, evidently, you didn't see my picture. I did, too. Then I don't see how you can possibly say that. What about that emotional scene where I'm making love to the girl, where I'm pleading with her with every fiber of my being? Well, I'll admit that was funny. Thanks. Anyway, my talent doesn't stop at love scenes. I had a lot of comedy in the picture, and I got plenty of laughs. Believe me. Hello, John. How are you, Kenny? Hello, Kenny. You almost missed that. Yes, I did. Oh, say, Jack, I went to see your picture last night. Oh, did you? Uh-huh. I took my girl with me. Well, well, did you laugh? Yeah. She says the funniest things. That's fine. You go to see my picture and you laugh at your girl's jokes. Gee, I had to. She bought the tickets. Why didn't she laugh at my jokes? She heard them before. Oh. Say, Jack, why don't you stick to radio and forget pictures? Oh, yeah? I'll buck up, Jack. You'll make good yes. I certainly have boosters in this crowd. Oh, well, gee, I thought I was good, but say, I don't know. I liked you, Jack. Thanks, Tom, but that would mean more to me if you'd seen the picture. I don't know. I guess... I guess I was just over-infused, that song. I don't know. Mary didn't like me. Oh, I was just kidding. You were not. They were that smoke that's fire. Maybe my acting wasn't so good. Say, we all make mistakes, only I just happen to be in front of a camera. Oh, Jack, cheer up. Maybe I'm not the type for pictures. I don't know. They fill us about time for your number, isn't it? Okay, Jack, anytime. Yeah. Say, we can't all be gables. Answer the phone, Mary. Hello? Who? Uh, just a minute. It's for you, Jack. A walkie-gann? Hello? Yes? Oh, hello, Dad. Well, well, this is a surprise. Yeah, I'm glad you called. Oh, I feel all right. I just had a little disappointment. Nothing important. Just my career, that's all. What's that? You did? Well, how did you like me in it? Really? No, kid. Oh, you're too sweet. I couldn't have been that good. What's that? Opposite garbo? Oh, Dad, you just said that to make me feel good, and you certainly did. Well, gee, thanks, Dad. I can't tell you how happy I am, you call. Yeah, give my love to everybody. Goodbye. Oh, oh, Dad, wait. How does my blue suit look on you? That's good. Goodbye, Dad. Goodbye. Oh, I'm glad you called. Oh, I'm glad you called. That's good. Goodbye, Dad. Goodbye. Hmm. Opposite garbo, eh? Say, who can tell? Love sends a little gift of roses, a play, Phillip. Patton player from the big broadcast of 1937, played by Phil Harris and his Phil Haremonic Orchestra. Woo. And I want to tell you, Phil, either that was very good or I'm feeling better. Thanks. Say, Jack, I heard the gang ribbon you before, and I want to tell you something. Yeah? I saw your picture twice. It's swell. You were great. Why, you stood out like a sore thumb. Oh, you're not kidding now. No, really, I mean it. Say, Phil, did your orchestra boy see my picture too? Yes, sir. They were all there. What did they say about me? Jack, you were great regardless. Hmm. Why don't I shut up? I think you got something there. I think so. And now, ladies and gentlemen, as you all know, last Sunday, we presented part one of our version of Anthony adverse. Before proceeding with the second installment of this classic, I will give you a brief explanation of what transpired in our play last week. I think our listeners would like to know what happened. So would I. Very well. For the benefit of Mary, who was in the play and don't know what happened, I will explain. As you may recall, I played the role of Anthony, who at the age of 10, arrived at the Casa di Bonifeather in Italy and asked for a job which he received. Oh, Jack, who played the role of the Casa? Nobody. Oh, no Casa role. Ten years later, he married the cook's daughter, Angela. That was me. Quiet. And immediately after the wedding, Anthony was sent to Cuba alone to collect some money for Mr. Bonifeather, his employer. From there, he went to Africa where he became a powerful, wealthy, greedy owner of a rubber plantation. Mary, what are you laughing at? Gee, do I have to have a reason? Well, anyway, the heat of the jungle, the chant of the needy, the beat of the tom-toms, and Mary's laughter finally shattered his nerves completely. He fell to the ground, dragging the curtain with him, thus ending the first half of Anthony adverse. We will pick it up. We will pick it up from that point immediately after the next number, which will be sung by Kenny Baker. Oh, Don, in my resume of the play, did I leave out anything important? Well, only the jello is the largest selling jello to dessert in the world, and every day millions of people eat it. Oh, yes, without that, there would have been no suspense. Jell, Kenny. Sweet one of everything. I'd like to know who hide your new get back in. That was, when did you leave heaven from sing baby sing, sung by singing baby Baker? And now, ladies and gentlemen, we continue with Anthony adverse and take you back to Africa, where we find Anthony still delirious, surrounded by a group of all stricken natives. Africa, the jungle. Angela. Angela. Hey, bumbo. Yes, sir. How's the boss getting along? Ooba-gooba delirious. Ooba-gooba still delirious? Gooba. Well, shut up. Knock, knock. Who's that? Delirious. Delirious who? Delirious Del Rio. Water. Give me water. That's what I want. Water. Yeah, you is, boss. I want to go back to my wife. I want to go back to my sweetheart. Boss, ain't you kind of fickle? I want to get away from this infernal heat. This jungle. Boss, look, here come a white man. White man? Too late. I've already signed Phil Harris. Yeah, it looks like he's coming this way. I'll call to him. Hello? Hello? Anything wrong, stranger? Yeah, you're supposed to be further away. Besides that, I'm dying. Dying? Poor fellow. I want to go back to Italy. Back to my wife. I'll take you back to your wife. Why doesn't he mind his own business? Quiet. I don't fear, stranger. I'll bring you back. Who are you? Frank! Frank! Frank! Away! He'll bring me back alive! Ah, Nathan. Nathan, at last I'm leaving here. But come sing to me. Sing to me once more the song of the jungle. Jungle bells, jungle bells, jingle all night. Two years later, Frank bucks both lands at Lake Horn, Italy, and darts at the Casa De Mono Feather. The crew is unloading the cargo. Hey, Joe, come here and help me check this cargo. Okay. Let's see. One lion, two tigers, four giraffes, one ringtail monkey, two black monkeys. Hmm, here's a funny one. What's this? It's me, and let me out of this cage. Two years in a cage with these monkeys. Boy, am I sick of peanuts. Hey. Is this the Casa De Mono Feather? Yes, sir. The place has changed. Well, I must go in to see Mr. Mono Feather right away. Hello, Faith. Are you still a worker here? Anthony, Albert. It can't be you. Oh, it can't, eh? How's Mr. Mono Feather? He's dead. Dead? How's business? Likewise. I don't care about that. Where's Angela, my wife? She's, uh, she's, uh... Where's she, I say? Don't look at me like that. Where's my wife? She's in Paris and has become a famous opera singer. Didn't you see this morning's paper? No. Well, here, get a load of this. Hmm, Jimmy Starr's column. Your correspondent has it on good authority that Angela Adverse and Napoleon Bonaparte are that way. This golden voice canary and the emperor were seen holding hands at the emperor's state building, where they were building and cooing. My wife and Napoleon, huh? Well, I'll put a stop to that. I'm leaving at once. For plan. Goodbye, Faith. Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye. Who are those other two girls, Faith? Hope and charity. I'm off to plan. I sure get around, don't I, folks? Well, dear, later, an Anthony Adverse arrives in Paris. We take you now to the villa of Angela, where we find her singing to Napoleon. She is rehearsing for the opera. Madame Azale from Armitage, Charlie Boo. Madame Azale from Armitage, Charlie Boo. This is the part that they cut out what I can do all right without. He didn't give Harley Boo. Ah, Madame Azale, this was magnifique. Your voice intrigues me. You should have heard it before I had my councils out. Ah, ma chérie, come to the arms of Napoleon. Ooh, la la, too sweet. Keep me, my little mucky mouse. Happy. Come to Patty and seat on my lap. Who's there? Anthony Adverse. Anthony, my husband. Quit nap, you must hide. I do not leave you, sweetheart. I hide under the table. Hurry, hurry, please. Come in. Angela. Anthony. How was our honeymoon? Great. I wish you'd have been with me. Oh, Angela, I'm so glad to see you. Come, fall into my arms. I'm, I'm sorry. Butterfingers. Oh, Angela, let me look at you. I've missed you so much. Oh, don't talk now, Anthony. Kiss me. My darling. Gesundheit. Hey, wait a minute. Who's that under the table? Under the table. Oh, just the legs. Well, they're trembling. It's cheap furniture. Legs, eh? Legs. What are those knobs on them? That's the bony part. That's what I thought. Come out of there, you. What are you doing under that table? I'm looking for my chewing gum. Are you Napoleon? Am I Napoleon, is asking. Wait a minute. Weren't you Carlos Tebow's the Cuban last week? Certainly. And now you're Napoleon? That's me. Cuba France. How can I keep from running into you every place I go? Why don't you hire more actors? Your chiseler you? What's this world coming to? You leave your wife for 20 or 30 years, and you can't trust her. Well, conditions are bad all over. They are, eh? Well, listen to me. I love Angela, and I'm not giving her up without a struggle. You'll have to fight, Napoleon. Come on, take your hand out of your vest and fight. Wait, Anthony. Don't quarrel. Don't choose between us. Look at me. Do you really and truly love me? Yes, Angela. With all your heart and soul? With all my heart and soul. Is your love undying and unselfish? Yes, darling. Then you get under the table. No, no, I've lost you, Angela. So I might as well leave, but where can I go? If only I could find peace and quiet. Anthony, why don't you go to America? America? Yes, there you will find peace, quiet, and Indians. All right, I'll go. Good-bye, Anthony. Good-bye, Angela. Good-bye, Anthony. Good-bye, rat. Hour of war. Uh, Mr. Adverse, Mr. Adverse. Yes, Captain. Uh, you look so sad. What seems to be the trouble? Well, Captain, I've lost my wife, Angela, and I'm on my way to America, to California. Why are you going there? I am going to California because I have lost Angela. Listen to some grand good news.
