Rush: Mike and Rachel!
Rush: WELCOME!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Still hot in CA, Rush? (Good to be here)
Matt1: Just keep those fires away!
Rush: Hot it is!
Rush: Fires in the East County, too.
Rush: Smokey air conditions.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hot and humid in DC…but that’s the way it’s SUPPOSED to be.
Rush: Yes, Matt.
Matt1: Any rolling blackouts?
Rush: Yes, and actually, our heat is not unexpected either.
Rush: Just never fun!
Rush: No rolling blackouts this week.
Rush: At least not in our area.
Matt1: I couldn’t imagine with the heat
Rush: We run the air conditioning for about an hour, and keep the windows closed to keep the cool as long as possible.
Rush: The we repeat later.
Rush: (Then)
Mike n Rachel in DC: I can’t imagine FL in pre-air conditioning days either.
Rush: Oh, my!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Rush: oof. We would have it set on “frost.”
Rush: Hard to imagine.
Matt1: Not having a/c is the biggest worry here, lol
Rush: Yes.
Rush: 5 minutes until our serial…
Matt1: Ready here
Mike n Rachel in DC: Looks like we may have a modest Labor Day turnout. (Happy Labor Day to you both)
Mike n Rachel in DC: All set with X-9 here.
Matt1: And to you!
Rush: In our movie, “Dark Alibi,” I figure Birmingham Brown gets his most screen time so far!
Rush: We have no less than THREE “incomplete talk” sessions!
Matt1: BB & Ben Carter!
Rush: Yes!
Mike n Rachel in DC: And this one has a couple of the “interruped conversations”
Rush: Yes.
Mike n Rachel in DC: *interrupted
Rush: Yes…two are “interrupted,” actually, and then resumed!
Rush: TWO minutes…
Mike n Rachel in DC: Were those developed for the Chan films…or part of another act?
Rush: They were based on what Carter and Moreland performed on stage together.
Matt1: Very cool
Rush: I feel that there was some improvisation happening!
Rush: 60 seconds…
Rush: Ready?
Mike n Rachel in DC: ah…they do seem to be the kind of thing that would make great vaudeville
Rush: Yes.
Rush: 30 seconds…
Mike n Rachel in DC: No improv with X-9. Cued and ready!
Rush: 20 seconds…
Rush: 15…
Mike n Rachel in DC: *gets spy decoder ring*
Rush: 10…
Rush: π
Rush: 5…
Rush: GO!!!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Usual sinister beginning
Rush: Title…credits,,\…
Rush: Yes, Mike…..
Mike n Rachel in DC: Love this “we are being very serious” music!
Rush: Is Rachel “marching”?
Rush: “Shadow Island”
Mike n Rachel in DC: LOL. Not tonight. Scowling at her computer (statistics homework coexisting with Chan this evening)
Rush: No longer on the map!
Mike n Rachel in DC: It should become the 51st state!
Rush: Hopefully Chan will help ease the statistical boredom!

Rush: Sorry, Hounder!
Rush: How has your mom been?
Mike n Rachel in DC: Nice swastika on the wall

Matt1: How nice Hounder
Rush: Shocked as X-9 survived!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Very artsy having the mask next to X9
hounder: still on te coaster.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Just wondering: Does this lady own only one dress?
Rush: “Coaster”? Is that a rolling bed or chair?
Rush: Mike, she has a closetful of the same design!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Like Einstein! Saves mental energy deciding what to wear…
Rush: It would’ve been funny if, when X-9 backed away from that spy hole in the wall, he had a blackened eye!
Mike n Rachel in DC: This reminds me of City in Darkness
Rush: Yes, I can see a bit of that.
Mike n Rachel in DC: The landlady and lobby…not so much this scene
Rush: Yes!
hounder: ollar
Rush: And this gentleman, too.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Marcel?

Rush: This lady gets around!
Rush: Nabura
hounder has left this room
Mike n Rachel in DC: Where do you find an expatriate American plastic surgeon who lost his license?
Rush: Lost Hounder.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hopefully she’ll return…
Rush: Answer: Shadow Island.
Rush: Yes.
Rush: It seemed her posts were incomplete at times.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hm. I could use a nose job. Maybe a vacation to Shadow Island…?
Rush: Has happened to me at times when my Internet was not perfect.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Good thinking Rush!
Matt1: Speedy trial
Rush: In those days, that was the norm, I think!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Charlie can’t pass this up
Rush: Here is a “Chan” signature made by Toler. Compare it to the note we will soon see!

Dona: He has many
Rush: Oh, YES!
Rush: I was transcribing them today, and I was able to jot notes on FOUR sheets of paper…both sides!
Godwinshelley2: These were BB sayings?
Rush: We will have THREE examples of “incomplete” talk!
Dona: WOW
Rush: I have been compiling them.
Godwinshelley2: nice
Rush: Yes, GS, but, to make sense of them, often surrounding dialogue needs to be included.
Godwinshelley2: Especially incomplete talk
Rush: You can see them being added at our sections at this site for each film that he is in.
Rush: So far, this one is his ‘busiest”!
Matt1: Sorry folks, but I need to run….Will see you next week

scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Each man swears. Hmph.
Rush: yes, Angel…another race against time!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: “Finish school, try to finish me”
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Obviously more prisons are needed.
DanVenture: Ludicrous commericial interruptions. It’s like it’s 1985 all over again.
Mike n Rachel in DC: rub your nose…get oil on finger
Rush: Yes, DV….sorry!
Rush: There are some throughout!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Maybe detective need nurse.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: That HAIR is 50 years ahead of time!
Rush: Just click the “Skip ad” button as soon as you can.
Rush: Yes, Angel?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: No, it’s September!
Dona: Hi Dan, Hi Angel and Fox
Rush: BB: “VERY good idea.”
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Who Manchu.
Rush: Dona and Angel, I hope that this will be a fun wrap-up for your Labor Day!
Rush: Angel: π
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: My labors not completed, Rush! As finish of Move nears, laborer (me) exponentially less efficient.
Dona: I have been looking forward to it all day. Yes Rush
Rush: SCREAM!!!
Rush: Me too, Dona!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Planned to load truck today for penultimate trip, moved like the Lazy River.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Ptomaine?
Rush: I hope that things have cooled a bit in your area, Dona!
Dona: LOL
Rush: Speaking of TRUCKS!
Dona: Only 100 today
Dona: Yesterday 121
Rush: Less here.
Rush: Cooling a little.
Rush: WOW!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Are you in LA, Dona?
Rush: We only reached 112.
Dona: Gosh that is really hot for you too
Rush: BB “interacts” with some theatrical props.
Rush: This is the film with a few of BB’s dialogues with his legs!
Dona: lol
Rush: Nice to still have you with us, GS!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: MM never shorted the sheets whenever i’ve seen him, always delivered full value for one’s entertainment dime. Rush, that would be 70 cents today, yes?
Godwinshelley2: Have you seen the actual scripts, Rush? Do they give stage direction to Mantan or just say Mantan does something here?
Godwinshelley2: Yes Rush
Rush: “Whoa…a gila monster.”
Rush: Sweating…
Rush: This is GREAT BB “stuff.”
Rush: “BB Theme”
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: “Some people do something” might be the stage directions today, after which the sets would be attacked by peaceful folks & the actors would make ads dumping on the flick. All would get Awards later.
Dona: ROTFLOL Angel
Rush: Angel…makes sense to me…especially in the midst of all the “incomplete talk” tonight!
Rush: Milton parsons…
Godwinshelley2: Bassoon Mike?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: I kinda specialize in incomplete talk (to paraphrase the Bay City police chief from “Lady In The Lake” (1944).
Mike n Rachel in DC: Yes, GS.
Rush: The old coin trick!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: The Dead file? You got “Sugar Magnolia” from 1978?
Rush: “your idea – my dollar.”
Mike n Rachel in DC: DOLLAR?
Rush: Silver dollar.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: And Harley is in the CYCLE ward.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Pricey decoy.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: With Davidson, his new secret friend.
Rush: The truck!
Rush: Yes, mike!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: I’m at (43:43). More doubletalk?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: What the truck!
Mike n Rachel in DC: 41:05
Godwinshelley2: 41:15
Rush: Angel: π
Godwinshelley2: Chan at fingerprint office
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: CHAN WILL GO TO PRISON! EXTREE!! EXTREE!
Rush: We are at…41:50…
Godwinshelley2: at prison
Rush: 42:05
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Loitering. Slap another ten on him.
Rush: 42:30
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: The Dead file? You got “Sugar Magnolia” from Watkins Glen 1981?
Rush: π
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: This business is already in the red. Get it? In the red?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Everyone protests innocence.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Bob Barker?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: NOW the doubletalk!!!
Rush: Here we go…
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: What Mantan did for a chauffeur-suit, nobody else ever did so well.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: It’s the company you keep.
Rush: Now, it seems from what is said that these were shot in no particular sequence and added to the film!
Godwinshelley2: When Ben was available perhaps?
Rush: Perhaps!
Mike n Rachel in DC: We been strangers for years…
Rush: Yes.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Rush, that John-Luke Goddard dude was just following patterns cut by more illustrious predecessors.
Rush: They need to look to England, circa 1974, to find Slade.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: It’s all right, they’re speaking Chinese!
Rush: Yes!
Rush: Probably Cantonese for “Rock, Paper, Scissors.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Oh, YOU mean the BLOOD Shed!!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Got’cher nose!!
Rush: Note that the gun’s trigger is missing when chan holds it later!
Rush: Could be explained, though!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Looks like he could walk straight into “Red Zone Cuba” by the execrable Coleman Francis.
Mike n Rachel in DC: That’s an MST3K highlight, Angel
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: ALL RIGHT, COPPAHS!
Rush: Faking!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: mNr, I alllllllllllmost MENTIONED Mmst3K! They did “RZC” up GOOD! If only JFK coulda seen it!!
Rush: Almost, Angel!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: (The MST3k version, i mean. I heard the Kennedy-term ogs from the White House theater have been aged open; we MUST look to see if the President screened Red Zone Cuba.)
Rush: Perhaps when the gun exploded, the trigger was ejected.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Rush, have you some private information?
Rush: No…just private “conjecture.”
Rush: π
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Any of our tablemates care to speculate on the screenings-list for LBJ, when that one’s released?
Rush: CC could have saved some time by mentioning his case in “Shanghai.”
Mike n Rachel in DC: Probably some Westerns?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Mr. Johnson WON’T be back. Did he leave any popcorn? We’ll take it—to his, er, family.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Tried oil oil?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Ever tried to oil an animal?
Rush: The use of animal oil should have been the first choice!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Only when they squeak, Angel
Rush: Good for the coat, Angel!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Rush:
Rush: “Large place….”
Rush: Like a theatrical warehouse.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: I had friends with several vats for the acid also. They’ll be released in 2030, unless they get in touch with governor of state. In that event, 2036 probably.
Rush: Funny reaction there by CC!
Rush: Angel: π
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Paraphernalia with beeswax for flexibility.
Rush: Better your friends than mine!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: None of BB’s BB’swax.
Rush: I think I recall a couple of those figures from “The Chinese Cat” fun house.
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: This is how i met my boyfriend.
Rush: Unique!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Ferengi?
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Violins sound like onomatopoeias for kitty cats. Chinese cats?
Rush: This might have been the Monogram prop warehouse!
Rush: THAT was a REAL man in that armor!
Rush: They should have made his skin look fake somehow!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Shoes don’t fail me now!
Rush: Into the truck!
Rush: here we go!
Rush: This was surely a FUN scene to shoot!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Looks JUST lie PORTLAND!!
Rush: !!!
Rush: The salesman!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: No sale / ride rail / jump bail/ join the army if you fail / look out, kid—
Rush: Right!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: It’s Davidson again. Looking for Harley.
Rush: sales, to no bail…to jail!
DanVenture: I’ve often wondered if Mantan felt embarrassed acting those scenes–knees knocking, feet glued to floor…
Rush: I would doubt it, DV!
Rush: Comedy was his FORTE!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Only (i hope, DV) if he’d glued them himself & neglected the miracle solvent.
Godwinshelley2: It paid the bills – and look at the 3 Stooges
Rush: Visual as well as verbal!
Rush: yes, GS!
Rush: Exactly!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: I have a mid-level Kia. Forte is my comedy!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Got’cher nose!
Rush: The “finger gun”!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Vest families with fiefs.
Rush: Coming up to the final “incomplete talk”session….
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Did chorus girls ever actually chorus?
Rush: With CC involved!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Uh-oh.
Rush: Of Cor-us.
Rush: CC jumps in!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: Rush:
Rush: Tommy is perplexed!
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: That’s cuz they speak Chinese!
Rush: “Same difference.”
Rush: THE END
Mike n Rachel in DC: <kids-yeah>
Rush: (Applause…)
scarlet angel w/ red fox!: SAME DIFFERENCE!!!
Rush: Yes!
Dona: <YEAY>
Mike n Rachel in DC: And a good time was had by all!
