It's brilliant, contemporary, perceptive. 328 00:23:48,149 --> 00:23:51,269 This story's a modern version of Faust. 329 00:23:52,863 --> 00:23:55,069 - Faust? - You're kidding, Jeff. 330 00:23:56,158 --> 00:23:59,693 I guess I didn't tell it right. I didn't bring out the point. 331 00:23:59,786 --> 00:24:04,080 But you did bring out the point admirably.

I'm a self-made snake. 695 00:48:04,329 --> 00:48:07,164 "Listen, baby. We all live by the law of the jungle..." 696 00:48:07,249 --> 00:48:09,158 - Excuse me, Tony. - "...eat or be eaten." 697 00:48:09,251 --> 00:48:10,876 Pardon me, folks. 698 00:48:17,968 --> 00:48:19,759 You know about icebergs, don't you? 699 00:48:19,845 --> 00:48:22,799 One-eighth above the surface, seven-eighths below. That's you. 700 00:48:22,890 --> 00:48:25,891 You're giving me only that one-eighth. I'm greedy. I want more. 701 00:48:25,976 --> 00:48:27,767 All eight-eighths. Now let it rip, Tony. 702 00:48:27,853 --> 00:48:31,981 Give it too much. Go way over. Come along. The whole eight-eighths! 703 00:48:32,275 --> 00:48:33,650 Okay, Gaby. Same place. 704 00:48:33,734 --> 00:48:35,976 "The same kind of opportunistic snake that he is." 705 00:48:36,070 --> 00:48:38,110 You got me wrong. I'm a self-made snake! 706 00:48:38,197 --> 00:48:41,447 Listen, baby. We all live by the law of the jungle: Eat or be eaten! 707 00:48:41,534 --> 00:48:45,318 And I realized that I like to eat, and eat caviar whenever possible. 708 00:48:45,413 --> 00:48:48,284 Did you ever try spreading ideals on a cracker? 709 00:48:48,375 --> 00:48:51,162 Good boy, Tony. That's it. Eight-eighths. 710 00:49:03,599 --> 00:49:06,137 - Sorry. Butterfingers. - No. It's not your fault, Tony. 711 00:49:06,227 --> 00:49:08,267 It's an awkward pattern. I have a better idea. 712 00:49:08,354 --> 00:49:10,643 You hold your position right here, and Jimmy... 713 00:49:10,731 --> 00:49:14,147 suppose you pick up Gaby like that, and put her down... 714 00:49:14,235 --> 00:49:16,393 right here next to Tony? Now you see, Tony... 715 00:49:16,487 --> 00:49:18,895 I'd like to practice it with her two or three times. 716 00:49:18,990 --> 00:49:20,069 I think I could handle it. 717 00:49:20,158 --> 00:49:21,949 Do you mind if he tries it with Barbara? 718 00:49:22,035 --> 00:49:23,944 These are new toeshoes. They're killing me. 719 00:49:24,037 --> 00:49:26,658 Sure. You go ahead and rest. Barbara, come here. Try it. 720 00:49:26,748 --> 00:49:28,871 I think this is what's throwing you off. 721 00:49:28,958 --> 00:49:32,161 If you hold your balance so, like this, then grab her here by the... 722 00:49:32,254 --> 00:49:35,041 Paul, I think we're making a mistake here. 723 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:40,628 I think we're wasting Tony in this scene. 724 00:49:40,721 --> 00:49:43,971 He's got the first-act finale right after this. The damnation scene. 725 00:49:44,057 --> 00:49:46,180 I don't want to dissipate his impact in that. 726 00:49:46,268 --> 00:49:50,562 Now, why not let him exit into the house and watch it from his balcony? 727 00:49:50,648 --> 00:49:52,190 - How'd that be? - Wonderful idea. 728 00:49:52,274 --> 00:49:54,765 See what that would do? Save your sock for the finale. 729 00:49:54,860 --> 00:49:56,058 Much better that way. 730 00:49:56,153 --> 00:49:58,442 Let's go back to the beginning positions.

I've had three weeks of these lovely rehearsals... 737 00:50:15,882 --> 00:50:19,381 three weeks of Chinese torture. I don't know what you're trying to do... 738 00:50:19,469 --> 00:50:22,174 except make me look like a complete fool. A clumsy idiot. 739 00:50:22,264 --> 00:50:25,598 I've tried.
