Tesander Quotes in Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House (1948)

Jim Blandings: Water, Mr. Tesander.

Tesander: Yep.

Jim Blandings: At six feet.

Tesander: Yep.

Jim Blandings: And just over there, you had to go down 227 feet to hit the same water.

Tesander: Yep.

Jim Blandings: Now, how do you account for that, Mr. Tesander?

Tesander: Well, the way it appears to me, Mr. Blandings... over here the water is down around six feet. And over there it's down around 227 feet.
