You're sooo close.

Oh alright, I'll tell ya'; it just seems a shame that you won't get it on your own when it's right there in your grasp.
It was CHICO MARX, the brother who put on that phony Italian accent and always bested his cigar smoking brother Groucho. Chico and Harpo usually were in cahoots to fool Groucho.

My Principal at work would definitely disagree, she is both successful (certainly more so than our erstwhile male principal) AND she has a wife of sorts.
