what's up ah green peppercorns exactly [Music] oh [Music] [Laughter] oh i don't think so look it's 9 30 past the colonel's bedtime in fact the little devil is napping now you know he often takes a little snooze between dessert and coffee helps build up the strength for the long walk to the car oh no thank you andre just the check the mere presence of an outrageously overinflated bill always arouses him [Music] we enjoyed it very soothing when was it um uh [Music] in cincinnati cincinnati wkrp got kind of packed packing and unpacking from town to town up and down the dial maybe you and me were never meant to be just maybe think of me once in a while i'm a wkrp in cincinnati good morning andy oh hey good morning uh look jennifer you didn't have to come in today it's no problem i am

thing i said the wrong thing the colonel always called me a good little soldier and that is exactly what i'm going to be sure hey look at the positive side of things he was a nice man he was a wonderful man who lived 80 very full years but his last years were his happiest why was that and he did a wonderful thing for me he left you a million dollars wrong thing i said one night well one night right in the middle of parcheesi the colonel's eyes opened and he said jennifer i want you to be the executrix of my estate just like that wow sorry he doesn't trust any of his family i'm going to see that his wishes are carried out to the letter what would you guess was involved here maybe a couple of hundred thousand millions for sure perhaps even billions there's so much to count top job i don't mind the colonel knew i was getting restless i i'd mastered seven languages just about finished the lobby here he knew i needed another project she's a darn thoughtful man so i've been thinking about jennifer you know what she's going through and i think she ought to get out and do some that sounds right problem is what do you do with jennifer [Music] you know what i mean we live in two different worlds that's what i mean it's like i like to go to police auctions stuff like that i know why don't you take it where you took me you know that store that has every last issue of captain marvel comics yeah that would chair uh well i think it's something higher west less time for half hour update card inserted inserted noise about to end record's almost over then let's go to work [Music] time for the half hour news update with les nessman top of the day death watch not for whom the bell tolls it tolls for colonel h buchanan one of the wealthiest men in ohio he died last evening at a local restaurant the colonel was a decorated veteran of both world wars beloved by his men of the fighting 42nd division who called him old iron head [Music] in peace colonel buchanan returned to cincinnati where he amassed his great fortune through real estate high finance and women's nylons [Music] [Applause] later he turned his attention to a political career highlighted by a 1968 shoving match with then vice president spyro agnew sphero at the time of his untimely death the 80 year old colonel was in the company of a young blonde woman the buchanan family claims not to know her identity but say the colonel had recently developed an interest in gold diggers and blonde floozies um the um the colonel will be buried i suppose jennifer oh hello bailey what are you doing thinking about what well this morning it was the nature of existence around noon i began to embrace the philosophy of camus existentialism is perhaps the answer is this the evening paper uh-huh can i

thank you very much bye-bye are they back yet not yet oh hey how'd it go i never saw anything like it where's jennifer i took her home oh what happened it was like a three-ring circus the press was there television cameras newspaper photographers people running all over the place trampling on the flowers no respect no respect at all well why because they were all fighting to get a picture of the blonde mystery woman when they saw how pretty she really was all heck broke loose that was a funeral mr carlson why don't you just sit down here and then one reporter shouts hey look she's with another old coop [Applause] i'm not exactly a kid anymore but i'm not a cootster either just about taught that young man some respect look how's jennifer taking all this well she's pretty shaken up of course i mean flashbulb's going off in her face people are asking questions like hey lady you and this guy live together maybe i should just go over to her house and stay with her for a while that's a good idea and tell her to forget about mystery floozies and wills i wanted to start on her vacation just starting right now yes sir front door is this way young lady yes but but my purse is back here as you wish okay hold on [Music] i looked up executive tricks it has nothing to do with high heels and [Applause] leather ah the meeting was called for 3 p.m it's 10 past now i just wanted to make sure everyone was here everybody is here hello mr kennington i'm jennifer marlowe how do you do as you can see i've changed my mind good i was hoping you'd come yeah well i guess i should introduce everyone starting on my left cedric buchanan brother of the deceased flores buchanan sister chester another brother and skip buchanan nephew and this is miss jennifer marlowe a friend of the deceased and executrix of the will i resent her presence i don't like having an outsider here she's not family she's good-looking though miss marlowe has every legal right to be here uh gentlemen oh why don't we begin now this may be out of the ordinary but it's all perfectly legal ladies and gentlemen if you'd all care to watch the screen good afternoon everyone cedric claus chester oh the greedy relatives here that's good oh i like this little scene by the way i i've got me some executrix huh that's jennifer say hello jennifer hello she's sweet and she you damn right she is one woman i can count on hey hold up honey fine good i know it's come true for me now well now wait wait before i start i'd like to say something remember those times i used to fall asleep well i wasn't asleep i heard every damn thing that each one of you said about me all right now that's all i think there but let's begin to my brother cedric i leave nothing because he's always been an all or nothing type of fella and since he can't have it all he gets nothing well i paid his bills for the last 40 years and that free ride on the buchanan gravy train is over did you save anything cedric no no no i didn't think so but to my sister chorus i leave nothing same reason my brother chester i'd like to leave a lesson nothing but that dumb lawyer mind you can't figure out how to do that for my nephew oh skip it was always bragging about his van for him i leave some advice get a car people will see you around on the highway you're blocking everybody's vision you now for jennifer marl to her i leave exactly one dollar she asked me not to leave her or anything but this happens to be the first dollar i ever earned and there is a sentimental attachment i love you darling you're a good soldier now all the rest of my estate every damn set of it goes to the harry krishnas [Applause] that is if they promise to stay out of the airport oh no i i'm only kidding actually the balance of my estate is to be spent on a parade a parade i want a parade honoring the veterans of my old unit the fighting 42nd round them up jennifer round them up and bring them here and give them a parade when it's over well divide the rest of the money give it to the men of the 42nd and if they're deceased give to their families now look dear don't don't you try and do all this yourself no no it's too difficult you hire a staff to do that i think my brother cedric's looking for a job [Applause] well that's it folks nice knowing you now i suggest you go to your corners and come out fighting mr kennington this is not a will what we have here is the ramblings of a senile old man who has fallen under the spell i don't think we'll have any trouble convincing a judge that my brother was incompetent uh i'm not so sure judge would find that going out with ms marlow here was all that incompetent just might prove his mind was clear as a bell for the parade i mean really it's insane it's it's frivolous it's going to start around two probably last until around seven i'm gonna pick a nice summer's day when all the kids are out of school well i can see we're going to have a fight on our hands just as big as you'd like to make it come on course there's no point in staying none whatsoever i always thought he was asleep thank you oh thank you i guess i have a lot of work to do oh miss marlow uh have you got one of these tape machines at home i have several oh well uh there's another tape i guess the colonel wanted you to watch it when you're alone thank you goodbye goodbye [Applause] [Music] hey [Music] uh [Music] you
