There's nothing like a good cigar after you've just swallowed the canary.
Tonight on Simon and Simon.
Some do booze, some do junk.
I gamble, it's what I do.
Keep her alive overnight.
Babysit a human time bomb.
You're in trouble, Frankie.
You're with the enemy.
This doesn't have to be rough.
I would hope not.
Do you mind, Franklin?
Why are we stopping?
You said you wanted a racing car.
Oh, come on, Sarge. At least get me out of town a little further.
Look, they sell them in here. We don't know what we'll find later on.
Okay. Okay.
None. You stay in the car.
I'm not under arrest. Just protective custody. I'm just a safety... I am
you for the last time.
Liz, H .A.
Good news?
You remember my brother Rick?
No, come on Liz, he's matured quite a bit since then.
Well, he's, let's see, he's traveled extensively in the Orient, working
for the government.
He's quite a sailor, he owns his own boat.
Rick is much too modest to ever call it a yacht.
Uh, how would I describe him?
A raconteur.
No, he has never served time.
Come on, Liz, look. Just tell Maxime it's the best I can do on short notice,
okay? Don't worry, I'll put him on a lunge line.
Yeah.
Okay. I'll talk to you later.
Bye -bye.
Big night, huh?
Big enough.
Gee, if the planets are in proper alignment tonight, you might be able to
200. Whoop -de -doo.
Back to Cali bowling.
You don't use balls, you use a lot of lemons.
Makes it easier to bowl a perfect game.
Want to come along?
Easy game to pick up.
Rick?
I don't want you to get too excited now, okay?
But you are going to have one of the most wonderful experiences of your
lifetime. Yeah, I know. It's league night.
Now, I wouldn't do this for anyone but my own brother.
Her name is Maxine.
Long, silky brown hair.
Legs that go from here to Baja.
Oh, be still, my heart.
And a siren voice that'll make your neck size go from a...
16 to an 18.
Oh, Maxine the Beast works the computer at DMV. Forget it. Two kind of women in
this world. Your kind and my kind. Rick, please, please, please. Rick, Liz wants
Maxine to have a date. That's the only way it's going to work. How about that?
Do you know how much I want to go out with Liz?
It's going to cost you.
Yeah, fine, fine.
All right, look, I'll tell you what. Why don't you just forget about the next
payment you owe me on the shelf, okay? Okay.
Okay,
all right, look.
I'll... Spring for what you still owe on the bug detector that you bought at
Surplus Sammy's, okay?
I want two months' free use of the shower and access to the telephone.
Yeah, all right, you got it. Look, just be polite, okay?
Tell her that we're taking them to a French restaurant. These are ladies,
okay? What, do you think I've never talked to a woman before?
Ladies.
Hey, Max, baby.
Yeah, this is Rick. I got mine, Simon. Listen, I understand we're all supposed
to go out tonight, but I'm off the bus with one of those French joints, right?
So here's the shot.
Captain's courageous.
Surfing turf out at the new mall. You'll love it.
Oh, yeah, they got a world -class salad bar, ice -cold plates, beef on a board.
Yeah, they got a tank where you can nail your own lobster.
Yeah, personally, I like little guys go down with a fight. You know what I mean?
Yeah, Bibb City.
Paraplyers never man for himself.
All right, look it, I'm going to be wearing a T -shirt. You wear a tank top.
I'll see you around six.
Hello.
Frankie Gillard. I'd like you to meet A .J. Simon and his brother. Come on,
you're going to be spending the night here tonight.
You're just fine, Janet. How are you?
Why don't you sit down and make yourself comfortable? I'll be right back. Excuse
me, could I have a drink of water? I have to take a pill. Oh, absolutely.
Janet. Yeah. As much as we might like to spend the night with that young lady
there. We already have plans for tonight. I have me whole day in
this. No, no.
Yes, yes, I want you to postpone those plans because this is my chance to nail
Sid Castle. Now, I'm going to tell you who that is. That lady in there is my
to locking him up into the next century.
Okay, the grand jury meets tomorrow at 2 o 'clock in the afternoon and she's
going to be there with names and dates and documents and everything if I can
keep her alive overnight.
Never a cop around when you need one. No, see, that's my problem.
We think we might have one or two that we don't need. There was a hit attempt
this morning.
Castle must have bought a badge to pull it off.
God knows he has the money.
Anyway, we're sweating a suspect right now, the sergeant who was assigned to
guard her, believe it or not.
So, I need someone that I can really, really trust.
Oh. Janet, that's the nicest thing you've ever said to us. Yes, it is.
Also the most dangerous, asking us to babysit a human time bomb.
No, come on. It's only for 18 hours. That's amazing. At the time, just sort
rockets by when death is only a swallow away. Sure does.
Does she smoke cigars?
What? Well, you remember the last babysitting assignment you gave us? Big
the guy straight out of Quest from the fire. You're gonna love Frankie.
Just don't play cards with her.
How you doing?
Good or bad?
Oh, don't mind me.
Uh, it's just what I do.
Some people, stuck on cigarettes, I gamble.
Oh, well, I've been on twice as bad or two on myself.
Not like me.
Oh, downers.
Gambo's crutch.
Okay,
Janet.
We'll take it from here.
I'm never going to see Liz again anymore anyway. It doesn't make any difference.
I'll be a bachelor for the rest of my life. Frankie?
I'll just see you tomorrow at 2 o 'clock, okay?
You'll call later.
I can't do that.
See, if Janet knows where you are, then she's in danger, too.
Sid.
Sid. Our friend is not where she's supposed to be.
How are you, boys?
Good.
Which means that we don't know where she is.
But it also means that Miss Fowler, the darling of the DA's office, has made her
first real error.
I don't know.
You know, I figured after this morning that she would have handpicked a whole
new cop detail.
You know, whisk Frankie out of town.
She never brought Frankie back to her office. He never even called the cops.
Look for the pattern, Paulie.
Never put your money down on the table until you see how the cards are falling.
Janet Fowler has a very definite pattern.
Remember the time she cut down Two Fingers Maloney?
Mm -hmm.
Yeah, private detectors busted him. That's when he was crossing the border.
And when she wanted somebody to sit on Big Sal before he squealed.
She hired private detectives. The same two detectives every time.
Simon and Simon.
Then all we gotta do is find them, and we find Frankie.
I don't think we even have to do that much, Paulie.
If I know Frankie's pattern.
My flower is drying out, Paulie.
Go get me a new one.
From my favorite flower shop.
The way to take a room is as far away from the elevator as possible.
That way they have to walk to get to it.
And run to get back.
Check out the other room. Okay.
All right, Frankie, you just wait right here for a minute. Let me check this
place out.
Why two rooms?
It's just nice to know there's nobody next door.
All clear.
Great. Nobody but Spider -Man could get up here.
Good.
Okay. Make yourself comfortable.
I gotta take a pill.
Don't you think you ought to take it easy with those things? Maybe try and
little sleep?
You're kidding, right?
This pill will take me from terrified to frantic.
That's about as much as I can hope for tonight.
Do you hear a cat?
No Bugs and Alberts.
285 bucks for that thing.
Oh, I guess this is about as close to a honeymoon as I'll ever get.
I gotta call my bookie. No, no, no, no, no. No phone.
Please, please. Do it our way, and I promise no one will find you.
And everything will be over soon.
And the only person using the phone tonight is me.
I'm going to do that right now to call room service.
EA's office is going to pay for making me have dinner.
Turn him loose, Charlie.
Ah,
where's that food?
Down with nine.
Got me a two of everything.
Noah's Ark.
Mm -hmm.
The winner was Blue Daddy, paying 15 .50. Second.
Dr. Bones paying eight even. Third, Princess Cleo paying five even.
On the program tonight, nine parimutuel races.
The Exacta, the Perfecta, the Quinella, and the Double Perfecta. The third
race is scheduled to run in 19 minutes on a fast track.
Hi, Georgie.
How's your heart?
Real good.
Feeling real good.
Nothing wrong, is there, Paulie?
I've been splitting the square with Castle.
No, nothing's wrong, Georgie.
They just need a little favor from you.
How do you like San Diego State, A .J.? Oh, it's a good engineering
school. It's rather weak in the classics.
I don't think she wants to enroll.
Oh, you mean the game?
Yeah, they're giving it a ten -point spread.
And I heard on the grapevine that the quarterback's got a sore arm.
How do you know all this stuff?
Sweet Lou.
Sweet Lou Gillard.
Daddy.
I was born in a trunk in the Princess Casino, Reno, Nevada.
My first rattle was a roll of silver dollars.
They say I could shuffle a deck of cards before I could walk.
Now they're just an extension of my hands, never without a deck.
Wish sometimes.
I wish I knew how to put them down.
Didn't your father... I mean, last year, didn't he?
He did not kill himself.
Well, the papers...
Said he owed hundreds of thousands and... And he went out a 12 -story
but he was pushed.
He had three $100 bills in his pocket.
Well, if he owed lots of money and all he had was $300, I mean, wouldn't that
a motive for suicide?
Not for a gambler.
I know, I am one.
A gambler with $300 doesn't give up. All he needs is a two -horse parley to win
it two to one. Then he's got $2 ,700.
and then 1 ,000 straight up at roulette, and he's got $40 ,000. That's enough to
get into a poker game.
Sid Castle did it.
Sounds like Sid Castle.
Making a murder look like an accident or suicide.
No one's ever caught him at it, though.
My dad did business with Castle.
A few weeks ago, I went through Sweet Lou's effects, maybe for the hundredth
time.
And I came across this sealed Pinochle deck.
Now, Pinochle was probably about the only game he didn't play.
Well, why would he have a Pinochle deck then?
Because what was in that box wasn't cards.
It was a key to a safety deposit box. And in the box were a lot of receipts,
records, notes, photographs, proof of racketeering and extortion, loan
His insurance policy in case he got killed.
Right.
And your friend Janet tells me it's enough to put him away for life.
If I'm around to identify it.
Ah, Jen.
Okay, that's 300 for the game, 300 for the boxes, 390 doubled for the blitz.
owe me $990.
What? At a penny a point?
Oh, you didn't know. Um, to a gambler, a penny's a dollar.
Okay, forget it. Make it ten bucks.
What's that to me?
I gotta call my poofy. No, no, no.
You gotta let me.
I got a dog's gonna make me rich.
There will be another race tomorrow. You gotta let me call him.
Listen, if I don't... Something inside... If I don't make that call,
I'm gonna throw up.
I told you.
Some do booze, some do junk. I... I gamble. It's what I do.
I'll make the call for you, all right? He won't accept it if he doesn't know
you. Please.
He's a personal friend of mine. Besides, he has a phone set up that makes it
impossible for anybody to trace his incoming calls.
Please.
Is he the only bookie that handles the dogs?
Yeah, 278X.
Apricot cookie to win, dollar.
You're in trouble, Frankie.
Tell him I gotta change a computer disk.
He's gotta change a computer disk.
He's gotta change a computer disk.
You're with the enemy.
They belong to Sid.
It'll take a minute to warm up. Well, it was a lot simpler in the old days. They
had a big blackboard.
It's progress, right? Progress.
You've got to learn to live with it.
You've got to get out of there or it's all over for you.
Now, stay calm.
You've got the edge.
I don't know you're on to me.
Come on over here. I've got a place I can stash you.
What race was that dog in?
Uh, the fifth.
Apricot cookie, dollar to win.
I got to use it, John.
Go ahead.
Room service.
It's all right. I'll bring it in. Just here. Just charge it to the room. Very
good, sir. Thank you.
At last.
Frankie!
Dinner's here.
Hurry up before it gets cold.
She probably can't hear me with the water running.
Frankie?
Hey.
You all right in there?
Hey, Frankie.
You okay?
I'm okay.
All right, get decent. We're coming in.
No way for anybody to break in.
Easy for her to get out, though.
Why the hell did she do it?
She could have escaped easily at any time after the car went up.
It doesn't matter. Why didn't she go to Janet in the first place?
Why didn't she agree to come with us?
Well, maybe she got upset when I couldn't come up with 990 bucks.
That's something the bookie said.
Then what else could it be?
Well, where does that get us? I mean, we don't know where he is. Local calls are
free, so the hotel wouldn't even have logged it.
Wait a minute.
What was it she said just before she made the phone call?
Well, she wanted to place a bet.
Her bookie was the only one who handled the dog.
That's one dollar.
Thank you.
Let's make a move, boys. This ain't no free show.
Sell dog racing forms?
Here, tonight's form, one dollar.
Uh -huh.
Well, that's nice, but, uh... Say, for instance, I find something in here I
like. How do I make a bet on it?
I guess you'd have to go to the track.
Uh, yeah, but that'd be closed by the time I could get there.
Must be another way.
Somebody has did you wrong, buddy. That part of my life is in the past.
I've learned my lesson.
How do you think I got my moniker?
I don't know what your moniker is.
Stretch.
Mm -hmm.
Uh, well, Stretch, see, I just cleaned out a crap game. I'm just hot as a
pistol. I don't want to play my heat.
So? So, uh, I'd be willing to...
Hey, oh, 20 bucks for that racing form if I just knew where to make a bet.
No gambling.
All racing materials sold for interest and information only.
Well, I'll keep that in mind.
Let's see, that's an even 20 for the racing form, right?
Thank you very large.
Stretch.
I want to put a dollar on a dog. I'm new blood in town, but I got cash. Tell me
where to bring it.
You got a wrong number, Mac.
I thought I found it quite cranky or sweet, Lou.
A dollar on a dog. You sure he knows you meant a hundred?
A bookie would know.
Well, we can always get a location for the number from your friend at the phone
company.
I wish there was a better way.
Operator 24, please.
Hey, Bruno.
Rick Diamond.
Need to reach out and touch somebody.
At 555 -4212.
I can't get Cuban cigars anymore, Bruno.
Bruno.
Bruno. I got a girl I want you to meet.
Uh, well, she's kind of a cross between Donna Mills and Charo.
Yeah, that was my first thought, too.
Name's Maxine.
No! Uh, yeah, yeah.
Oh, sure, I can tell you where you get in touch with her.
Yeah, I don't know.
gave us the right address?
He better have.
When Liz finds out what you have done to Maxine... Come on, you know Bruno.
He's always a trick in the old trading post.
If he did it this way, I could have given him Liz.
That's not even funny.
To what? To swing out.
See, when this phone rings, the box picks up the sound and tells it to ring
another number. Frankie was right.
This bookie thinks he's made it impossible to trace his calls.
But your latest issue of Black Bag Monthly just happens to offer a method.
No, but surplus semis did during the last clearance sale. Got just what we
out in the truck.
How much do I owe surplus semis? You don't want to know.
There's only one thing bothers me.
Came in here, we probably set off a silent alarm.
Alerted this guy wherever he is.
Probably long gone by now.
It's the only shot we've got.
Okay, you go outside and give this number a call.
Oop, wait up.
Got a dog player giving us a hand here.
555 -4972.
Cookie Dog.
Second, Iowa Miss. Third, Get Along Sammy.
Florist shop at this hour?
Only flashlight.
Iowa Miss, 280 to place, 220 to show. Get Along Sammy, 260 to show.
Our next featured race is the... Why a florist shop?
You've been seeing too many movies.
It's not George Rapp and a bunch of guys with blackboards. It's some yo -yo with
a telephone. That's it.
The yo -yo with the telephone work in the dark?
Not usually, no.
Well, like I said, I'm afraid he's long gone.
Hello?
Anybody in there?
He's gone all right.
Looks like a heart attack.
Looks a little bit too much like a heart attack.
Nitroglycerin tablets right where they ought to be.
What, another Sid Castle specialty?
Yeah.
Take a look at this.
Apricot cookie, race five, $100.
That was Frankie's last bet.
Wish you hadn't put it that way.
This just isn't your lucky night, Frankie.
There's nothing like a good cigar after you've just swallowed the canary.
It'll be a murder rap for you if I turn up dead.
Nobody's going to buy another sweet Lou story.
That's one gamble I'll just have to take, Frankie.
You got it okay?
She's okay.
Nice car, Frankie.
Clutch lifts a little.
We'll leave about seven.
No, we're all just going for a little ride in your car.
Where?
Your nerves acting up again, Frankie?
How about one or two of your pills?
Or nine or ten.
Get the pills.
No, no.
You shouldn't wander the streets in your condition.
They can't be out.
You go tell them that.
Dad, maybe there was a hell of a party around here last night. I don't know.
there's another liquor store in Deleon. Let's go down there. No.
We can't go in and out of a lot of places.
We don't want to leave footprints.
Hanley's Market.
Sid, they won't be open this early.
I know.
There's a machine next to the entrance.
Get four bags. Meet me.
Got it.
Hey, Braddock.
You got quarters.
Always carry quarters.
Go with it, Frankie.
Go with it.
It's only going to beat you anyway.
I've been this high before.
And Dill walked away a winner.
Not this time.
Oh.
The drive won't take long, Frankie.
And when you wake up, you'll be in one of your favorite places.
And here's a dream for you, Frankie.
Dream about that place where you used to take those long walks with your dad and
throw the frisbee to Jimmy the Greek.
Remember, Frankie?
Just cool it.
Don't worry about the dog.
He's just a big, dumb guy.
Give him a frisbee and he's yours for life.
Nice
place
Frankie has here.
Hey, hey, hey, you put a hole in my head, you're dead. Come here,
come here, come here, come here.
Calling by his full name, thinks he's been bad.
Dumb guy.
A lot of mail here.
Is she away often?
About once a month.
Vegas, Reno, sometimes Tahoe, but I don't think her luck was real good
She pays me extra to take care of the dog.
Excuse me, Jimmy.
You sure she's in trouble?
Oh, yeah, she's in trouble, all right. A little bit worse than cramping out at
Tahoe.
Hey, Rick? Yeah.
Quit fighting the dog and come over here for a sec.
Okay. What do you got?
Where is that?
That's the Nesta Blush. You know, that place where the kids fly those little
radio -controlled gliders?
These are the big Navy transmitters?
Is that her dad?
Oh, sure.
He used to come over here all the time. I love the guy.
So did she.
Damn shame about him. About all she has left to remember him by is the car.
What car? A little silver one. Sweet Lou gave her.
A French job.
Fuego. Can we take a look at it?
It's not here. I figure she came and got it sometime early.
What do you mean, without checking her mail or feeding her dogs? Does that
like Frankie?
It was here last night. I check the garage all the time. It's part of my
have a security garage. It costs our people extra.
You better get the police.
I jumped to conclusions there. Nobody said it was stolen.
Well... She didn't take it and it wasn't stolen?
That don't make sense.
Sure does.
It does to us.
Um, you don't by any chance remember the license number, do you?
It's one of them custom jobs.
One that's, uh, just the number four in F -L -U -S -H -R.
Frankie.
Frankie, it's a beautiful morning.
Time to enjoy the view.
Sleepy time, Frankie.
Sleepy time.
Easy. No, no, no. I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll do it.
Come on, Frankie.
How D is she?
Give me a little credit.
I've done this before.
She'll sleep just long enough.
They won't find any more in her system than about the upper threshold of a
user's nightcap.
Ted, you're sure this is going to work, yeah?
Dead sure.
Less than an hour.
Must be 85 out here already.
Come on.
Spread the rest of that junk around.
Well, that mark was a great idea, Sid. I found everything in that dumpster.
I got beer, I got hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza boxes.
It's the details that count, Pauly.
Always the details.
back in the club in about 10 minutes.
And I want to be with a lot of people when it happens.
Mom? Hi, Mom.
What are you doing coming in at this hour? What are you doing here at 7 .30?
You're telling me and my canasta club is due at 10.
Mom, why is your canasta club meeting at my house?
Because the power blew in my building, and I've been calling you since five,
of course the two of you were out tomcatting around.
Take the shotgun, too. Give me slugs to go with this, okay?
All right, if you stocked the refrigerator half as well as you did
you wouldn't be candidates for Ricketts or Barry Barry.
Oh, uh, give me a little jet fire, too, okay?
Hey, how many trigger fingers do you have, Billy the Kid?
Yeah, you're right. Mean and lean, that's the way to do it.
Come on, we better get a move on here.
Maybe we should have called ahead.
Then there wouldn't have been the slightest chance of catching him
Yeah, the element of surprise is highly overrated.
Besides, the council's not going to want to dance with us.
We're going to have to ask.
Nobody said it was going to be easy.
I'll tell you what, you keep the village idiots here off my back and I'll see if
I can get some answers out of this guy. Mr. Simon, where have you been?
Your cat's been waiting and waiting for you right this way.
Right through there, first door on your left.
I'm off at nine.
Just how dumb do they think we are?
Don't answer that.
This doesn't have to be rough.
I would hope not.
All right, I'll take whatever's under the desk.
I would hope so.
It's Orford and Friendship.
We want to look around.
No problem.
We're looking for Frankie Gillard.
Heavy player.
I don't think she's here this morning.
Pauly?
No, I haven't seen her, Sid.
First things first. Get over there.
Maybe I should call the police.
We don't have to do that, do we, Pauly?
Unless... Uh, that's what you want.
No?
Fine.
Empty your pockets.
It's a lot of quarters.
Yeah, it sure is.
I must be doing something right. I know a few people.
I could get the word out.
Maybe somebody's seen her.
Would you like me to do that?
No, I would like you to drop the act.
What kind of a demeanor do you want me to adopt?
Wait one second.
You think I got Frankie?
I can't believe it.
The place is yours, boys. Take a look around. My hands are clean.
Would you like a drink?
I know it's early, but I've been here all night.
This isn't an easy life. Oh.
You don't come to think of it, we haven't had any breakfast. I'm beginning
feel a little loopy myself.
You just got low blood sugar. No way, we'll get something into you later. No,
no, can't wait. Gotta do it right now. I could get something sent over. Oh, no,
that's okay. Come on, Andrew. Don't you want to go get some breakfast with me?
Are you sure you don't want me to call some people? No, that's fine.
Get you some help. No, no.
It's a big town.
It's all right. It could be days before you find it. Don't go to any trouble on
our behalf, okay?
Everything's okay. Oh, you validate?
You?
Always. What a sweetheart.
I believe she was there. That doesn't mean I believe she's here.
Because you never hike down to that beach at 4 a .m. with a fishing pole and
full cooler.
Sand spurs all over Sinesta Bluff, just like the ones on his pants.
There are sand spurs all over San Diego County just like the ones on his pants.
No, no, not the whole county, just the beaches.
Just some of the beaches.
All right.
Possible.
Possible.
How fast can we get there?
Ten minutes easy.
Are you just getting your blood pressure up over long shots?
Long shots or gimmies? Long shots.
This was your idea.
Yeah?
Besides, you're wearing that. I've got killer heartburn look. Of course I am.
stomach's empty.
Look, would you at least admit that just because Sid Castle has sand spurs on
his pants does not necessarily mean that he's been to the beach. It does not
necessarily mean that he's been to Sinister Bluffs. And it doesn't
mean that he's taken Francis down. It doesn't mean he hasn't.
Look, it's a good place to fake your suicide, especially if you know she
to go there.
You saw the pill? It was the same kind of downer Frankie was popping.
Downers are about as rare as dandruff. Look, A .J., this is about all we've
Hit it! Hit it! Hit it! Strike me!
You okay?
Yeah. That's me. The other side.
Here we go.
Hey, Frankie, come on.
Hey.
Come on. There you go. I would not play any poker for a while if I were you.
How come?
Because you just used up about ten years of good luck.
Not with that.
Not with you.
Got it.
Well, what we need now is a little post -prandial jolt.
Oh.
A little old cognac, perhaps, or maybe some vintage port.
Not on your life.
No. It's in a bowling bag.
Don Diablos.
The ice cold shooter sort of numbed the esophagus.
I'll say, that's not all it numbs. And then the second course just kind of
greases right on.
Down. Not with that knife, it doesn't. Would you like to borrow my whetstone?
Anybody care for, say, half a Don Diablo?
A .J.? Good. Not in this lifetime, no.
Frankie. No.
Janet. Don't even point that stuff in my direction. I don't want to be weaving
around in front of the grand jury this afternoon.
I think Sid Castle deserves a lot better than an attempted murder charge. I'll
drink to that. That was just my warm -up anyway.
Okay. Let's get together next Saturday. Have a real party. No, Frankie and I
can't make it. We're going to go down to Queen Otis and catch.
What is in Quinona? Nothing.
It was my idea, really, to get away from... Oh, crap tables, poker tables,
croupiers.
It's a lot.
Starting Saturday, could I see the cards?
Oh, you mean these?
Yeah, just for ten minutes.
Oh, no, I can't do that. Please, Rick. No, I promised AJ a game.
Oh, come on. You guys are going to play parts right in front of her? Absolutely.
That's very nice.
You can't beat a habit by pretending it doesn't exist.
That's right. You've got to kill the bear right there in his own cage.
All right.
It's all right.
I don't need any of this penny -any action anyway.
Penny point?
Penny a point. Penny. Round penny. Copper penny a point.
Lincoln penny a point.
Talk the tube.
That what?
Trust me. Talk the tube.
Gin. Oh.
