Shoot the ball. Who gave him permission
to speak?

Yeah, who gave him permission to speak?

Look, Louie, we can't have you breaking
the rules.

You can hang out with us as long as we
don't know you're hanging out.

But the minute we know you're hanging
out with us, then we got big trouble,

understand?

Shoot the damn ball. I'm just trying to
figure out what shot to make.

You heard him, big shot. Shoot the ball.

Yeah, sure.

Sure. It's not your Nicholas game.

I don't know whether to make a hook shot
or a slam dunk.

Don't slam dunk. Shoot the ball. I gotta
get to work. Don't rush me.

This is tricky.

The trick is to put in the basket.
That's the trick.

Hey, you gonna shoot the ball this week
or next?

I'm measuring the basket.

Shoot, you shoot.

You rushed me. You haven't rushed in 50
years.

Go ahead, miss.

Don't you ever miss.

Hey, fellas.

You see, it's all on the wrist.

I just ran mine. I can't get to my
money.

You don't have any money in those
clothes.

He never has money in any clothes.
Here's my dime.

You owe me a dime. Let's go.

I got to go home and shower and shave.

Why don't you make it 7 o 'clock in the
morning? A lot of people, a lot of

people. You know, while you two slobs
are slaving away, I got kind of a tough

day myself.

Yeah, I got to go home, take a shower,
have a nice nap.

Then sit at Rebecca and have lunch at
the Waldorf and then off to see the

farmers. Well, don't strain us.

Just once, I'd like to see you make a
bash. The only way to make a bash is if

you weave it.

It's taking years, but all the time,
Joby, it might only be about a half a

billion dollars.

I'm hungry.

No. No. No.

Thank you. Thank you.

How are you, Pete?

Good morning. How are you?

Good morning,

Al. Hola, Luis.

Hey,

that's it. Get it going, get it going.

Good morning, good morning.

All the coming in?

That's good, that's good.

Freddy!

How are you? We've got a lot of work to
do today. I know, I know.

Okay, now why don't you get all the
patterns from upstairs and bring them

Okay. I want these women working right
away. They're working. All right.

Yeah.

Matt,

I know why you called me in. It's the
debutante dress.

I know I took your chances. It's a
little daring, but... Sit down, Louie.

Look, Matt, there's nothing we can't
fix. You know what I mean?

It's not about garments. Oh?

According to our records, you turned 65
last week.

Now... Matt.

You don't have to apologize for not
buying me a present.

I'm a big boy. I know. We're all busy.

Please, Louie, don't make this any more
difficult for me, all right?

I feel like we're all going into the
toilet here. You know that?

I mean, we're doing fine.

We're doing just fine.

None of us own any yachts or anything
like that, but we took care of our own,

right?

I don't know. Now, ever since we sold
out to this Liberty Bells outfit, I feel

like we're just a bunch of lousy
numbers.

Every day that stinking board of
directors hands me another horror story.

What'd they hand you today, Matt?

Retirement.

Whose? Yours.

I know.

It's not fair.

I mean, look at you. You look like a 50
-year -old.

Wait a minute, Matt.

If I read you right, I mean... I mean,
last week I was 64.

I knew where every thread was. I knew
where every pattern was.

And this week, I'm 65, I'm dumb, I don't
know anything. They don't care if

you're healthy or not. This company says
you're 65, you're finished, you're

kaput. They didn't want me even to wait
till your 65th birthday.

They were going to cut the pension plan.

And I told them I wouldn't hear a word
of it.

What?

You're on the board.

I am just one man, Louie.

No one feels worse about this than I do,
Louie.

Believe me, I went to bat for you. I
talked to the board.

Now, there is a little money in the bank
for you.

What, are you talking to me like I'm
some flunky?

I've been with this firm since day one.

I am totally aware of the contribution
you've made to this company.

I don't think you are.

I taught your mother how to make sure
she rest in peace.

How to cut a pattern.

That year, when I fell down the stairs
and broke my hip, you were a little boy.

Broke my hip, your father carried me in
the snow to the hospital.

The doctor told me not to leave the
house for a month.

I left after two weeks.

Why?

We were cutting material.

Your mother had to turn on a line. I
saved your father from bankruptcy.

That's why I walk with a cane.

With a limp.

Because I care about this company.

Sorry, Louie.

I don't think you saw, you know.

Saved your own skin, Matt.

Bet you did.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Hi there.

Getting hot today, Frankie? Yeah, yeah.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Beautiful, Edie.

So good.

Yeah, yeah.

Well, I have a pretty good reputation.

No, no, I was in wholesale first.

But I could sell vitamins just as
easily.

Sure, sure.

I understand.

Well,

it doesn't hurt to try, right?

You have a good holiday, too.

Dad, you haven't eaten anything.

I, uh, I haven't eaten much.

Honey, you're being very quiet.

Uh,

the office is a tough day.

Oh, Dad, do you know I was in court
today? The Parkleton divorce case, I

told you about it. Well, this case is
such a mess. These people are so angry

that they can't, um, can't even, uh...

They made you a very special dish.

My birthday was last week. Tell him my
birthday was last week.

Tell him my birthday was last week. Dad,
he's trying to sing happy birthday. He

just wants to celebrate.

Good luck.

All the tests are back. He's absolutely
fine. I knew it. Dr. Bates says it's a

stress. I want a second opinion.

Charlie, ask him why he thinks he's
dying when the doctor says he's

fine. I've been wrong before.

Lily, why don't you go on and take a
break out? We'll sit with Camille.

Oh, thanks. I'd like that.

Goodbye, darling.

Louie, Louie, you should have been with
me at the track. I had a great day

yesterday. Yeah, you got a ride home.

No, no, I was looking at those little
ponies, and I thought to myself, you

animals are smarter than people.

Well, it depends who you hang out with.

Now, you put 12 horses in a race, and
100 ,000 people will show up to watch

run. You put 100 ,000 people in a race,
not one horse will show up.

Don't stiffs laugh when it's funny.

Come on, Louie, you've got to open up
your eyes sometime.

There's nothing wrong with you, Louie.

There's no escape.

I give up.

Don't you guys ever inhale?

Either I'm going to die of depression or
of smoke inhalation.

Now let's get out of here, huh?

Now you're talking.

I'll get his pants.

I'll get his coat.

Come on, will you cheer up? The doctor
said you're going to be fine. It was

stress, that's all.

Hey, look, we're going to have some fun.
You two bums are going to take the day

off. Oh, I don't think I can. Hey, come
on, Abe. Not selling furs for one day is

not going to kill you. I don't know. I
don't know, Charles.

Hey, Abe.

Give the chinchillas the day off, huh?

Hey, I'm going to take you guys and see
something really beautiful.

What's that man?

How young is this one?

Never mind.

Well, there she is.

Beauty.

Yep.

Louie, we've been friends most of our
lives, right?

Right.

I've never seen you like this. What is
it? I've never seen you like this.

You lost my job.

Oh, God, kid. I'm sorry.

40 years down the drain.

Hey.

Come on. It's not the end of the world.
I'm out of work, and I'm having the time

of my life. Yeah, he's having the time
of his life.

Yeah, but you quit your job.

Yeah, I quit because I knew my boss was
going to fire me.

I was never fired for a job my whole
life.

Never.

It's like it's over.

Really over.

Wait a minute. You lost your job
yesterday, and you won't put up a fight?

What do you know about putting up a
fight?

What do I know? I know plenty.

Plenty.

I got canned eight weeks and two days
ago.

What? Yes.

But you don't see me going around crying
on anybody's shoulder. I get up every

morning, I shower, I shave, and I go out
and... sit in Moe's Deli all day.

Well, what... Why don't you say
something, Abe?

I was too ashamed.

Too ashamed, but we're your best
friends.

How am I going to tell Francis?

Holy Toledo, Francis doesn't know.

Sick of hot pastrami.

Hey, come on.

You know, guys, it's really strange.

First time our parents saw her, they
were out of work, too.

Yeah, they were out of work, too.

Not for long.

Wonder if anybody told her she was over
65.

Sure, sure.

I understand.

I didn't order this.

I got sick and tired of eating nothing
but pastrami all the time.

Don't worry, you're going to get
something.

They got minks all over the world
working overtime just for guys like you.

And I got something else that's going to
cheer you up. I'm going to play my

cello for you. Please, not while I'm
eating.

What a surprise.

I decided to have an early lunch today.

You see, I needed to get out of the
showroom for a while. It's so stuffy up

there. I was there.

Oh.

How long were you going to go on like
this?

Ten minutes ago, I was 35, selling
everybody.

How am I going to take care of you?

We'll take care of each other.

Let's go home.

I don't know.

What did I do?

Okay.

Mesdames et messieurs, we are going to
play a new game.

You are wonderful. That is wonderful.

Wonderful. Every time we play poker,
he's somebody else.

How did you learn how to do that?

And they're in the shop. We got tailors
from all over the world. All over the

world. We got the Russians.

We got the Italians. What do you do,
Bernice?

Jennifer. Oh, of course. I'm sorry.

Oh, that's okay.

Jennifer is a much prettier name. Thank
you.

What do you do?

Oh, I have a company.

A company?

Yeah.

You have a company? Yeah.

She is the only one person in the room
that's employed.

Here comes the welcome wagon.

I hope everybody is hungry.

Wait till you taste it. This is the
greatest spread in town.

I'll blow you a doll, thank you. Thank
you, honey.

So, I heard about that faint rhinehorn.

Are you all right?

I'm fine. Thank you, ma 'am.

What kind of fine? You need pepping up.
I know just the thing. Don't go away.

I'll be right back.

Okay.

So, you have a business?

Oh, yes, I manufacture a line of
clothing and accessories for dogs.

I mean, you see, I'm a dog lover, so I
put out a catalog for other dog lovers

like myself.

You know, little extravagances like fur
-lined raincoats, jeweled collars with

matching jeweled leashes, pajamas, that
sort of thing. Pajamas for dogs? Yeah.

I don't believe it.

Believe it, believe it. You should see
how she lives.

It only goes to prove, pal, you've got a
gimmick and some money, you can sell

anything. Yeah, you know, Charlie's
right. I mean, do you know how many dog

lovers there are in this country?

I bet you there's a lot, huh?

And you'd be surprised how many music
lovers there are in this country.

Any requests?

Yeah, don't play.

Play something classical, Mo.

All right, who in bed is it? I don't.
All right, now it's your bed.

Oh, do you mind then? Yeah, do you want
to bet Ken?

Yeah,

I got it here. Let me think. I'll bet
Ken.

Hello? Hello?

Hello? Who is this?

Who is this? It's 1 .30 in the morning.

What?

Now?

What do you mean you can't wait?

Gentlemen, be seated. What is it? What
is it?

Okay.

What couldn't wait?

I couldn't sleep.

So you woke us up?

Charlie, remember that girl you brought
over to my house to play poker tonight?

You know, Jennifer.

Yeah, I know her. I just left her in
bed.

I'm sorry.

Look, if she can build a business
selling pajamas to dogs...

What's to stop us from building our own
business?

Did you drag me out of a warm bed?

You're a lunatic.

Yeah, you're a lunatic. I'm going home.

Me too.

Fellas, fellas, fellas.

Don't you remember years ago we dreamed
about going into business for ourselves?

Remember? What did we know then? We were
babies.

We were only 50 years old.

You know, you're hallucinating.

I gotta get some sleep. I got a big day
at the track tomorrow.

Charlie!

I don't know what's wrong with you, but
ever since Edie passed away, may she

rest in peace, you really don't give a
damn about anything, do you?

You're a bright, charming man, and you
still got a lot going for you.

But you're throwing her away on horses
and women.

Yeah, you're throwing her away.

And you, Mr. Agreeable, when are you
going to take a stand on something, huh?

Louie, Louie, will you just relax for a
minute?

You know what it takes to go into
business?

Money. Lots of money. And that's after
you get a great idea.

Charlie, you're the best accountant on
the whole avenue.

And you, I know you.

If you believe in something, you'll sell
it. You'll sell the hell out of it.

And me, I think I have a few years of
experience of how to make clothes.

Sweetheart, you know I love you.

But you're living in the past.

Today the market is geared toward the
young people. Right. You're absolutely

right. There are thousands of companies
designing clothes for young people.

That's what I'm trying to tell you.
Right.

But who's designing clothes for older
people?

Hmm?

People over 65 designing clothes for
people over 65.

Charlie,

are you sure you've got this thing
budgeted? Just right. I'm sure, I'm

Maybe you can do it for less.

Dave, I budgeted right on their schnoz.
We can't do it for less than $130 ,000.

That's it. That's it.

Oh, yes. What?

No cigars.

No cigars? No cigars. You don't go to a
loan office with cigars waving in your

face. But these are $2 cigars. I bought
them especially for today. I don't care.

Give me the cigars. What are you doing?
Hey, don't put them in there. I'll put

them over here. They dumped that thing
out.

So what?

I'll handle it.

What are you doing?

It's a 50 -kit style for senior
citizens.

How do you like it?

Sounds interesting.

How much will you need for this venture?

Young lady, if I'd known loan offices
were as pretty as this, I'd have done a

lot more borrowing.

Well,

my associates and I have put together
$30 ,000, and what we need to complete

project is we must borrow $100 ,000.

A million if you happen to have it.

Well, what can you provide for
collateral?

Well, between the three of us, we can
provide 120 years of hard business

experience.

That's very commendable.

But I'm afraid that's not the kind of
collateral we're looking for.

What are you going to do, Charlie? I
don't know. What do you want from me?

You're like the old days. I could walk
in... I know you could, but you... I

don't know.

a bag of chestnuts, please?

You need any money?

No, I can afford a bag of chestnuts,
Dad. Well, in that case, you got an

$100 ,000 on you?

I wish I did.

So do I.

Hey, you know, you're so skinny.

You been on one of those crazy vegetable
diets again? No, no, no. I'm getting

ready to do my first one -man show. I
don't have time to read.

You're serious?

Yeah. 27 pieces of sculpture at the Rita
Gallery.

What gallery?

Rita. Rita. It's a big gallery.

Rita? Yeah.

He used to go with a gal by the name of
Rita.

Tell me, what are you going to wear?

I don't know. It's not important.

It's important.

It's not important. The show is
important. I don't want to argue with

Then let's not.

What do you mean, let's not? You should
wear a suit and tie.

Right.

Don't laugh. I've worn a suit and tie
every day for 40 years.

Yeah, well, maybe that explains why you
never change.

What do you mean by that? Just tell me.
What I mean is why don't you just give

me some kind of support, okay? This is
my first show.

It's a great achievement to sculpt the
thing that you're doing. The sculptor

thing? I've been doing the sculptor
thing for eight years, but who's

Hey, did you see in the paper where your
friend Harvey... Axelrod, the guy's

getting married? Axelrod, the guy's
getting married. I don't have time for

She must be a very rich girl, this girl.

She...

Hello,

Louie.

Hello, Mr. Reinhorn.

How are you enjoying your retirement?

Retirement? I wouldn't know about that.

I want you to meet my partners.

Dave Mercer, Charlie Warren.

Hi. Hello.

We're going into business together.

Oh, really?

Yeah, really.

That's right.

Well, I wish you a lot of success.

Moe, why don't you put their lunch on my
tab?

Moe, please don't do that.

What's the matter, Louie? I wish you
success.

I know what you wish me, Mr. Rundle.

But don't count me out yet.

I'm still in the business.

Shall we have lunch, Stimpleman?

Here comes your dinner sometime.

Hi. Hi, Dad.

Barbara, how are you? How you doing,
Barbara?

Hi. How's everybody? They're gorgeous.
Fine. Want to sit down, sweetheart, and

have some lunch? Oh, Dad, I'm sorry. I
can't. I've got to be in court at 2 o

'clock. You're so busy.

When do you have time to meet someone
nice?

Well, as a matter of fact, I just met
someone. You're a kid, huh? No, I'm

handling this divorce case.

Divorce? A man's divorced? What's the
matter with you? You don't go with a

divorced man.

What did you do for a living?

Objection!

Objection overruled. Look, you deserve
somebody nice.

You worked very hard in your life to get
where you are.

Take your time. It's important.

He's the attorney for the other side.

An attorney?

When is he coming to dinner?

Yeah, when are you going to meet this
guy?

I love having three fathers.

Well, I do have your partnership
contract here.

Why don't you take them home?

You really don't need a contract. Well,
you really should have.

If you have any questions, you can call
me tonight.

I've got to run.

Hey, hey, hey.

Don't forget your Uncle Charlie.

I would never forget my Uncle Charlie.
Or my Uncle Abe.

Don't forget to call me. I won't, Dad.

Hi, Barbara.

Hiya, fellas.

Everybody happy?

I haven't had so much fun since I paid
my income tax.

Come on, fellas, spill it.

What's the trouble? What's wrong? What's
going on?

Nothing that $100 ,000 couldn't cure.

Every bank in town turned us down.

Can't get any money anyway. We went all
over.

Why didn't you come to me sooner?

Look, Mo, we want to borrow money, not
potato salad.

Oh, come on. How do you think I started
this delicatessen? I'm going to send you

to my personal banker, Frank Johnson.

He's a sweet, lovable man, got a real
feel for people.

Mr. Johnson, we have what we feel is a
very novel and very viable idea.

It's stylish clothes, especially made
for older people. And clothing made by

older people. Yes, people who are
considered too old to work in today's

marketplace.

Mr. Johnson, may I call you Frank?

Mr. Johnson. Sir.

I'm sure we will succeed if you can find
it in your heart to loan us $100 ,000.

You see, this idea would make the older
people not only look better, but feel

better, which is more important.

And it'll make you feel better, too,
sir, knowing you're part of this noble

project.

That's a very impressive idea.

Who said that?

You like it?

The idea, yes.

As a matter of fact, I think you have a
real winner here.

What do you say?

Real winner?

Huh? What is it? Winner.

According to the figures in this
projection, I can loan you $75 ,000.

I mean, you're going to have to get the
rest yourself.

Of course, you have a problem with that.

No! No, no, no problem whatsoever.

No.

Oh, no. No problem.

No problem, huh?

Well, we're going to get the $25 ,000.

What is your mom going to say to the
man?

Look, this guy's our last hope. That's
like local gift horse in the mouth.

I've seen horses with more expression.

Yeah, well, you should know.

Look, we've got time to figure this
thing out. It's six to eight weeks

know about the loan. Six to eight weeks?
What if we don't get the loan? Oh, will

you stop?

Charlie, where are you going? Where are
you going?

Charlie! They don't give away money in
the store.

They take it.

Shopping relaxes me, helps me think.

I'll think of something.

Yeah, he'll think of something.

Let's not think of it as $25 ,000.

Let's think of it more like $8 ,000
apiece.

You know, I don't really need life
insurance.

I've got nobody to leave it to anyway.

Hey, what about the cemetery plot you
bought for you and Francis?

It was an anniversary present.

How romantic.

Fellas, we're going to have to make some
sacrifices.

Charlie, you wouldn't be spending all
your money at discotheques if you went

with someone your own age.

Where am I going to find a woman who'll
admit she's my age?

At least he spent some of his money.

Houston, what about a mortgage on the
house?

That's gone already. Remember? Barber's
Law School.

What about a second? A second?

William wouldn't hear that.

Well, I could ask her about the jewelry
her mother left her.

No, I couldn't.

I couldn't do that.

I can hear it now.

Perhaps you'd care for a shower,
gentlemen.

Some towels.

No, thank you. Just browsing.

You're not going to get that loan. Six
weeks and two days and we still haven't

heard from Mr. Personality.

He turned us down and I know it.

Let's not get crazy. We don't know that
yet. Only an idiot doesn't know that

yet. You seem so negative.

I'm not negative. I'm mad.

I'm wet.

Oh, you were born wet.

Look, you know you were right the first
time. You're an idiot.

Hey, if I'm such an idiot, let somebody
else do the books. What are you talking

about, somebody else do the books? Will
you stop?

Hello?

Yeah?

Yeah?

Well, let me ask my partners.

Would you guys like 12 dance lessons for
$26? Oh, give me the bones.

You want to hit him first?

It's Lillian. She forgot her key.

Edie always forgot her key.

Come on, deal.

You know, waiting for that money. Hey,
save that for your customers, huh? Deal.

It was the mailman, and it's registered.

That's our phone call.

Open it.

Here, I'm the controller. I'll open it.
I'll open it.

Oh, my God.

We got the money.

It is a black and white. Black and
white! And it's signed.

We've got the moolah. We've got it.
We've got the moolah. We've got the

We've got the moolah. We've got the
moolah. We've got the moolah.

We've got the dough. We've got a seven,
five, and oh, oh, oh. Hey, we've got the

moolah. We've got the dough. We've got a
seven, five, and three little toes.

Oh, we've got the moolah. We've got the
dough.

We've got the dough.

We've got the moolah. We've got the
moolah.

Well,

what do you think?

It's right in the center of the garment
district. A gorgeous showroom.

I don't know. To me, it looks a little
bit on the small side. He's right. It

looks a little bit on the small side. We
could just about manage. Yeah, we could

just about manage, huh?

Are you kidding?

Where are you going to get 5 ,000 square
feet of space like this in Manhattan?

It's perfect, and you know it.

And what are you asking for this
perfection?

Only $14 ,500.

Only?

Excuse me. I've got to talk to my
partners. Come over here. Only $14 ,000.

can be very creative in a place like
this. I really mean it. Look at the

pouring in.

Yeah, look at the money pouring out.

$14 ,500.

$14 ,500 divided by 12 comes to $1 ,208
.33 a month.

Look, if I can get him down to $1 ,000,
should we take it? Take it. Grab it.

Maybe he'll take $800.

Mr.

Baskin, would you take $12 ,000?

Will you sign a three -year lease?

Two years.

Okay. Two.

Shake. Hey, Mr. Baskin, you got a deal.
Two years at $12 ,000 a year.

That's $12 ,000 a month.

A month? A month.

What does that come with breakfast and
bed?

Somebody call a cop. There's a holdup in
progress.

Hey, a month.

With all due respect, gentlemen, may I
suggest... You're crazy.

You're crazy, that's what you are.

I know a laundromat with an empty
storeroom in the back. Kiss my cigar.

your head in the dryer.

Isn't it interesting?

I don't know how anything.

It's kind of odd. Have you ever been in
a place like this?

In a loft like this? Never.

Oh, look at all these people.

Boy, there's a lot of people.

Oh, there's a guest book. You better
register.

Let them know we're here.

Do you want to sign it? No, you sign it.
I want Tony to know that we're here.

Should I sign the first name? Anything.
Just sign it, darling, because there's a

lot of people here. All right, all
right. Okay, baby.

Tony,

there's an art critic here from
Washington that I'd like you to meet

get to town. Great. All right? Yeah. So
have you had any of the hors d 'oeuvres?

Well, we just got here.

Oh, well, come with me before they're
all gone.

I'll bring you some, sweetheart.

Not too much on the plate.

So, what do you think?

I've got to admit, the piece over there,
what is it?

Well, what do you think it is?

I think it's... Yeah.

You think it'll sell?

That's not an opinion.

Everybody's talking about your work.
It's so exciting.

Thanks.

So, uh, how are senior sophisticates
coming?

Well, not too good. We haven't found a
loft yet.

We must have looked at a dozen places.

Too expensive.

Why don't you guys come up and take a
look at my space?

The artist I share the loft with is
moving to Los Angeles.

If you can take plaster flying, I think
I can take sewing machines.

What if you and I don't get along?

Just don't tell me about suits and ties.

Tony, I'm your father. A father wants
his son to be better.

Yeah, your idea of better.

What's wrong with my idea of better?
Keep your voice down, okay? I'm not

yelling. Just keep your voice down. I'm
just talking to you, and you've been

doing that since you were a kid.

Do you want the loft or not?

I'll have to talk to Louie and Charlie.

Hey.

Okay, I'll take it.

Okay. You got it.

If only nations could get together like
this.

Okay, Alana, just a little bit more.

Here we go.

It's cold.

I know. I'm almost done.

Is that legal?

Some people, when they open up a
business, they get flowers or a potted

I get to get black lung disease.

Will you stop with the cigars already,
fellas, please?

And give me a little room, huh?

How are you doing on the sample?

It's coming, Abe. It's coming. It's
going to take time. All right. Give me a

little room.

Oh,

will you sit down?

Why doesn't she call? She'll call.
She'll call. She's not your ordinary

you know. She buys for the entire
Adelson chain.

She told me at lunch yesterday that she
would definitely call today. That's what

she told me. You took her to lunch?

I said I took her to lunch. How else do
you think I could get her to come to

this beautiful palace?

Where'd you take her to lunch?

I can't hear you. Talk louder.

21.

Did you hear that? He took her to 21.

A man who brings shredded wheat
sandwiches to work.

Oh, so how much did you spend?

Huh?

How much did you spend?

$91.

$91?

Oh, that you heard, huh?

You spent all that money and we haven't
made a penny yet?

And we haven't even got a sample? I'm
working, I'm working.

Hold it, hold it down.

Senior sophisticates.

Abe speaking.

Hello. How are you?

I see.

Thanks anyway.

Well?

The buyer from Hattleton, she doesn't
want to see us.

Oh, great.

Now you've finished the firm, and we
haven't even got a sample. I'm working,

working. I need a little more plaster.
You cool?

Fine. Thanks.

Be right back.

Senior sophisticates, Abe speaking.

Right. Oh, good.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

What is it, a secret?

Charlie, can you take a buyer from
Bloomingdale's to lunch on Thursday?

What does she look like? What does she
look like? I don't care if she looks

Attila the Hun.

She's a buyer from Bloomingdale's. How
old is she?

I think she's... Hey, mumble, sir. How
old is she?

I'd say she's somewhere in her 50s.

Well, it's going to be a short lunch.

All right, all right. I'll take it. I'll
take it.

All right, fellas.

Hey, Charlie, I want you to put these
on, and we'll take a look at our

okay?

Yeah. First one. First one. Come on. Go
ahead.

Yeah.

Not one word out of you.

I know exactly what's wrong.

Take a vote.

Got it on backwards?

No, his brain is on backwards.

You want to zip him up, Abe? Who wants
to deal with zippers all the time?

right. You're absolutely right.

What I do, what I do.

Abe, you're a genius.

Gentlemen, the finished product.

I gotta say it, Louie, you did a hell of
a job. The first raid.

Look at this.

The front, double pleats. Style.

Also, elasticized waist.

And most important of all, no buttons.

No buttons? No buttons, no zipper, no
nothing.

Do you understand?

In the morning, it's cold, right? Old
people, they have a little arthritis in

the hand.

Don't have to deal with buttons or
zippers.

Oh, boy.

Just slap it together, and you got it. I
love it.

You're beautiful.

See this.

On the back of every pair.

Our trademark is side by side.

Imagine having us on every senior
citizen's ass in America.

I couldn't have said it better myself,
Abe.

All right, Mr. Money Man, let's figure
it out.

Well, what do you think it's going to
cost us for peace?

I talked to the contractor. He said he
could turn them out for about around $9

pair. $9 a pair? That means we could
wholesale them for $14?

That's good.

And retail them at?

$29 .99.

Yeah, $29 .99.

No, Charlie, this is a designer item.

It's got to go for at least $39 .99.
Yeah.

$29 .99 is a fair price.

What's a fair price?

What's a fair price for a Picasso?

We've been in business 10 minutes. All
of a sudden, we've got a prima donna

here.

$29 .99.

Look, I'm not being prima donna, but
it's a designer item. It's got to be $39

.99. $29 .99.

$39 .99. All right, walk.

Big deal. Walk. Go ahead. Bye. Hold it.

Hold it.

I'm the one that's got to sell these,
and I'm not going to go out there and

to rip off some old people, I'll tell
you that.

If we can't give them a product that
they can afford, I want no part of it.

being so stubborn.

Even Abe agrees.

It's a designer's item. That's the whole
point. It's a designer's item. Give it

to him for a little less.

Not a little. You should sell them for
the regular price of regular jeans. No,

no. These are... Excuse me.

Is this Senior Spitzkitz?

That's right. You're in the right place.

Which one of you gentlemen is Abe
Mercer? That would be me. Oh, Abe,

I'm... Sorry. Did my secretary mix this
up? Were we meeting at Bloomingdale's?

No, no. Come on, you're in the right
place. I'd like you to meet my partners.

This is Louie Hammerstein and Charlie
Warren. Hello, Louie. Very nice to meet

you. I'm Alice Grayson. Alice Grayson.
Nice to meet you.

You must be Charlie.

And you must be Alice.

We should probably go.

I'll get my hat and coat.

I made an early reservation, and I don't
want to lose it. So long, fellas.

Bye. Very nice meeting both of you.

Nice meeting you, too, Alice.

The Walter, you remember?

Oh, shut up.

Is that coffee okay?

Mm -hmm. We've got cola and root beer.
No, no, no, no. Hey, we've got real

cream. No, no, no. I'm just fine. Thank
you.

Watch this.

Watch this. Our number one show.

But it's hard to keep her from the tough
girls.

Yeah.

Every time she starts to mow her up, few
of my pucks go out. There he is, the

Jewish Michael Jackson.

Then she revs her engine faster, so you
know what I'm talking about.

You like it, eh?

Now, I want to show you some of the
features. Abe, let's see some of the

features. Show the double pleats.

Show the double pleats. See that? Yeah.

Style. Style. Like him. Right?

And now show the elastic waistband.

See the elastic waistband? No, it's
good.

Right there.

And now the piece to resist on. The fly.
So you don't have to... No, no! No, no,

Abe! I really like it.

Tony, stop the music.

It's just wonderful.

Now, listen, the jacket doesn't go with
the jeans, right? Oh, no, this is my

son's. But you do like the jeans?

Absolutely. Now, let's see how the
seniors respond.

Right, right.

We can start with an order of 600
pieces.

Did you say 600 pieces?

600 pieces. Our first order.

Oh, Alice, you're beautiful.

And if they move well, we can make it 6
,000 more.

6 ,000?

6 ,000? We're in business.

I think they should retail for $29 .99.

$29 .99?

That's exactly the price I had in mind.

I need the goods in two and a half
weeks. Can you deliver?

Should we deliver?

Madam, you are standing in a house of
stability.

He's our neighbor.

He comes out for a shot once in a while.

I had to celebrate.

I'm so... Proud of you. Yeah, she really
loved the jeans. I mean, loved them.

She gave us a full order. We can have a
fashion show.

Wow.

Wait a minute.

Stop the cab. Hold it. Hold it.

It just occurred to me.

I'm going to be responsible for 600
pieces.

Well, you're not afraid, are you?

To tell you the truth, I don't know.

I don't.

It's tough being the boss, isn't it?

And I've done it a million times, but it
was for somebody else, you know? That's

right. You've really done it.

But now everybody's going to know that
you've done it.

Right.

Lillian, you really are something, you
know? You really are.

I don't remember the last time we did
anything like this, ever. Oh, I

Can we drive a little faster, please?

You know, you have beautiful eyes.

I'll bet you say that to all the buyers.

Are you a buyer?

I forgot.

I hope so.

You know, there are not many places left
like this where you can dance.

Edie loved this place.

I used to bring her here all the time.

I bet your dance card is full up all the
time.

Not really.

I'm very selective.

But I've heard that there are a number
of ladies in

your life.

Not anymore.

Oh, sure.

You see this gorgeous blonde with the
cornflower blue eyes and a very tight

dress?

Never even noticed her.

Okay,

Herb. I'll get back to you.

Okay, son.

When you take a bath, you're supposed to
take your shoes off. Yeah.

Yeah, what did you do? Walk through a
car wash without your car?

What happened, Louie?

Fellas, we got a problem.

And I mean a big problem.

What is it? What is it?

The contractor had a flood.

Oh, my God.

I'm in shock.

Water main burst on the main floor. All
the machinery, everything's ruined.

I need to sit down.

I'm afraid to ask.

What about our fabric?

It's the one place where we got lucky.

They already cut the material, so they
stacked it up on the shelves so it

get wet.

Thank God.

Okay, okay. Let's not lose our heads.
We've got our fabric. All we've got to

is get a new contractor.

Yeah, I'll start calling one.

I already called every contractor in
town.

They're all busy.

As soon as I can get a contract, there's
a month.

A month?

What, are you crazy? We've got to make a
delivery in two weeks.

Charlie, it's the height of the season.

I'm hyperventilating.

We're finished.

Finished. Don't say it. Don't say that,
Charlie. Don't say we're finished. What

else can we say?

Look, fellas, let's not panic.

If we stick together, we can come up
with something.

Face it. It's a disaster.

It's not a disaster.

We've got a little problem, that's all.

I mean, we can fix it up. You know, will
you stop already? I'm getting damn sick

and tired of your optimism.

We should never listen to your silly
idea in the first place.

What? What is it? It's all my fault?

Yeah.

You've got a thing over our heads.

I'm going to be eating dog food for the
rest of my life.

Look, fellas, let's not do this, please.

We can figure something out. Yeah?

Figure out how we're going to pay back
$75 ,000.

And what about my life insurance? Yeah,
what about the cemetery plot?

Well, I didn't put anything in. I took a
second mortgage out of my house. Yeah,

and your wife's jewelry.

Well, you've ruined everybody's life.

I ruined everybody's life?

You were the guys who wanted to play it
safe.

You never wanted to take a risk.

I at least had an idea.

I wanted to do something with our lives.

Well, you failed.

I failed?

We're not partners anymore.

Did you sleep?

They should never have talked to me like
that.

Never. Oh, honey, they're your friends.

They're some friends.

They're scared, darling. They're not the
only ones who are scared.

I'm scared.

I mean, this whole house could... It
started off so great, so wonderful, with

those we were going with, and we were
all pulling together, and then it just

turned into a nightmare.

Oh, darling.

Remember what you used to tell Barbara
about nightmares?

No.

Yeah. They're only real if you let them
be.

Thank you.

Okay.

Let's play. What do you want from me,
Abe? I don't know where he is.

He was due here hours ago.

Wait a minute. Here he is. Let's go. Get
over here. Bring the machines.

What's going on? What is this? Charlie,
we're going to do it ourselves, and

we're going to deliver on time.

Are you crazy? It's impossible.

How are we going to make 600 fishes,
pack them, and deliver them by morning?

Charlie, the material's already cut,
right?

We got a loft, we got machines coming
up, and most important of all, we got

people, and there's more coming. These
people? These people I worked with for

years before they were let go.

Thrown out, you mean? I was getting too
close to my pension.

Anyway, Lou came down to the old
neighborhood and found me.

And Tim here is one of the best machine
men in the business. Thanks, Lou. I

don't know how good these hands are
anymore, but there's sure one way to

out. It's time us old folks started
fighting back.

What about me?

Malek is now slouching now. After all I
taught you, cutting.

That's right, you did.

All right, everybody.

We got a truck coming at 9 o 'clock
tomorrow morning. We're going to fill it

send it on its way to Bloomingdale's,
right?

Right! Let's go.

Let's go get a job.

Hi, Sophie.

Hey, you.

Make the scene tight, huh?

How are you, Sal? How's everything
going?

Anything a sculptor can do?

Yeah, go to college.

Come on. The jeans are coming off the
line. Let's bag them and box them.

I can't do this anymore.

Keep going, boys. Keep going. Come on.

Oh, you plums. Oh, boy, I'm dying.

Keep going. Keep going. Come on. The
night is young. Louie, the night is

but we're not.

Help is here, and food is here.

Oh, put them right down.

No,

no, no, no. Not on the pan. Not on the
pan. You're right. You're right. Cream

cheese don't go with denim. Right.

Put it in the kitchen, would you please?
Sure. Thank you. You too.

Okay.

Got it?

Put me to work. What are you doing?
We're all at home.

Oh.

Oh, boy. Do you want me to throw your
bag out?

No, but I may have to.

How cool.

Hey, Quagmoto, let's go to work, huh?

Good. You sure?

I'm sorry.

I let you down. No, no, come on, come
on. We're all tired.

We'll lay down. I'm not as strong as I
used to be. No, no, we're all tired.

We're all tired. It's late, late, late.

Come on, we'll just lay down.

It'll be all right.

No, that's it. You'll feel much better.

Darling. Louie, I'll help you. Okay.

You're going to be fine. I'm just a
little tired.

We're all a little tired. Yeah, Louie.
But everything is going to be good. I'm

going to sit you down and rub your neck
a little bit.

and you're going to feel a lot better
and get you some cold water, too. Why

don't you just sit down right here?

Sit right there. I can reach you better
like this, all right?

That a girl. That a girl.

That feel good?

That a girl.

We ain't got a barrel of money Maybe
we're ragged and

tawny But we'll travel along Singing a
song

Bye. Bye. Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

We'll be the same as we started, just a
-traveling along,

singing a song.

That's it. That's it.

We did it.

We did it.

You know what, you guys, I've got to go

to work. Forget work. Let's go have
breakfast.

Everybody come over to my place. All
right.

I tell you what, you go and have
breakfast now. We'll meet you in a half

hour.

I'm going to enjoy your pastrami
sandwich.

We just want to thank you from the
bottom of our hearts for putting forth

tremendous effort last night and for
saving our company. And I do mean our

company, which Mr. Warren will explain.

What Mr. Hammerstein is really saying is
our company is your company. Because my

partners and I met this morning and
ordered unanimously that you each own a

piece of this firm. And show up for work
tomorrow. Your job is permanent.

but we got it all the time. Never
thought we would.

Terrific.

I ain't guessing. Look at the way it
happened. The way it happened was

unbelievable.

Senior sophisticates? That's us, yeah.
Yeah, Gotham Trucking. You guys got an

order going to Bloomingdale's. Yeah,
just went on its way.

Hey, you know, you should double -check
your order before you start sending

extra trucks.

That ain't our truck.

I don't care as long as we don't get
charged twice beyond the stake.

Hey, read my lips, pal. That ain't our
truck.

Wait a minute. Have we been ripped off?

It happens all the time. Oh, no, no. You
know what we got in the truck?

Follow that truck. Come on. And I'm not
getting involved.

For a hundred bucks.

I'm involved.

Come on.

Dirty bastards got a life on us. Now
hurry up. Hurry up, will you? Can't you

take a short stop? Yeah, which building
would you like me to drive to? Come on,

don't be a wiser. Let's go.

Hurry. Those are our keys. We're going
to get them.

He's not moving.

We're not moving. He's right there.

What are we going to do when we get
there? Yeah, what are we going to do

get there? We'll do something.

Hey,

wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a
minute. Hold it, hold it, hold it.

What are we going to do when we get
there? We're going to get our jeans.

Yeah, we're going to get our jeans.

Yeah, but...

They're probably killers.

I mean, they've got guns and knives and
clubs.

Yeah, what do we got? Two cigars and a
cane.

Well, if I was ten years younger, I'd
rip them in a truck apart. Yeah, if I

ten years younger. Oh, we're not ten
years younger. Now, what are we going to

do?

Wait a minute.

Phony. Oh, no. Don't get my kid involved
in this. I don't want your kid.

It's what he's got. That's what I want.
Come on.

I can't believe they chickened out.

What, you expect them to change at this
age?

Come on. Let's get them.

I hope he pulls the gun. I'll throw it
right off.

Faster. Faster.

Look for the tire. Look for the driver.
I'll get the other guy. I'll get the

driver. No, no. I'll get the driver. You
get the other guy. Let me get the

driver. Help is on its way.

I'm coming. I'm coming.

I may not be Robin Hood, but I can't
miss from here.

Move it and you'll lose it.

You've got him surrounded.

Officer.

Officer. Arrest this truck.

Louie surprised me.

He did? I mean, with his dead leg in
him, you know.

Boy, you're the talk of Seventh Avenue.

I've been after those guys for months.

Well, all I can say, ma 'am, it turned
bad for three old codgers.

Hey, how about an hors d 'oeuvre before
dinner?

Oh, I'd love a hors d 'oeuvre.

I'll get it.

Here you are.

Can we have two, please?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Come on.

You're so loud.

What

do

you mean?

You're terrific.

I worked my way through college as a
singing waiter.

Any other surprises?

Yeah, did a little sword swallowing. Oh,
come on.

I got a surprise for you, my love.

What?

I just have to kiss you.

I'm sure you didn't work your way
through college doing that.

We're in trouble. We're in trouble. What
do you mean? The shoes.

The shoes. The shoes.

They were supposed to be here two hours
ago. There's no music. The sound

system's not on. How to turn it on? Me
to turn it on? I've got to tell you

something important.

It's important.

One of your models didn't show up. Hey,
that's your job. That's your

responsibility. I'll get him. I'll get
somebody off the street. Come on. Let's

go. Go ahead already.

Show the label. I got my cello and I got
the perfect number to play. We don't

need the cello now, right? We don't need
it.

We got music on tape.

After, after, after.

Field play, later.

The lineup goes like this.

Eleanor goes first. No, no, you can't.
Eleanor isn't here.

What are you talking about? You're both
crazy.

Dolores goes first. No, Dolores. Don't
you think we should line up this show?

Oh, no.

I thought you locked him in the
bathroom.

No, I'm not. We'll handle it. We'll
handle it.

Good,

good. Excuse us. Sorry about that.

We'll mix up in the program.

Welcome. It's my privilege indeed to
welcome you to Senior Sophisticated...

See you at the biscuits.

The very first fashion show.

You know, that reminds me of a very
funny story. What are you doing?

You've got to warm them up first.

Oh, for heaven's sake.

Folks, being here today reminds me of a
very funny story my partner

Charlie told me.

And... When was the story you told me?

walked into a restaurant.

And he says to the waiter, do you have
frog's legs?

And the waiter said, no, I only walk
this way from tight shoes.

Telling jokes in a fashion show to
telling jokes.

And now, ladies and gentlemen, on with
the fashion show.

Ladies and gentlemen, our designer and
creator, Mr. Louis Hampton.

I was going to cut it out of the
magazine, but your mother figured you'd

the whole thing.

What is the matter with you? Did you
read the review?

Are you kidding?

Five times to myself, five times on the
telephone.

What, you read this to other people? You
did?

You read this. The pretentious Anthony
Mercer would serve the art community

better if he took his dubious skills in
plastering somewhere else. You read that

to people.

What people?

Relatives.

Besides, tell me, Tony, is it such a
crime to be excited for my own kid?

Dad, I'm through.

Through? Yeah.

Because of one person's opinion?

You think this guy, Henry Moore, always
had it so great?

What do you know about Henry Moore?

I've got a book.

He probably got a lot of bad reviews,
but that didn't stop him.

Not a chance.

Can you believe what this vicious
bastard said about me?

Son, sonny, one man's opinion.

Right. Is that what I am, a plasterer?

What am I, old?

What does that mean?

Nobody can make me feel old unless I let
them.

And nobody can make you feel like a
plasterer.

Unless you're a...

I

have to tell you that I think you sing
much better than you play.

I beg your pardon.

No, it's nice.

It was, huh?

That's nice, too.

God, you smell so good. What is that?

It's called sugar.

Yeah, idiocy is that.

I doubt it.

It's not on the market yet.

Well, it was.

Hey, how about some more wine?

Oh, okay.

This is really such a nice room.

What a sweet face.

The sweetest.

Well, I can see why you're so attached
to her.

Maybe I'd better see about dinner.

Charlie.

It must have been very painful for you.

I did everything possible to keep her
alive.

You're still doing it.

Don't you ever think about your ex
-husband?

No.

I'm not married to him anymore.

Look... I'd really like to stay and have
dinner with you.

I just don't feel like there's any room
for me here.

Alice.

No, she bet. She bet. She's got a pair
of servants.

Right. Oh.

Yeah.

I can't understand it. All of a sudden,
the phones have stopped ringing. Two

weeks ago, I was getting writer's cramp
from taking orders.

Haven't sold a piece now in six days.

I've got people sitting around here
doing nothing. Yeah, they're doing

What happened to the pool of buyers that
come? I don't know. Hey, you guys.

Have you seen this?

Holy smoke.

That blind one.

He stole my whole design right down to
the last stitch. Look at that. And the

dirty rat undercut us by $10. Well, what
are we going to do?

What are we going to do?

We're going to sue the son of a bitch.
That's what we're going to do. On what

grounds? Why don't you guys go on TV?

On what?

On TV. Ken Franklin does stories like
this all the time.

Oh, we'd be happy to go on TV as long as
it doesn't conflict with our brunch at

the White House. Go on TV.

Charlie, this guy's going to be the next
Donahue.

He loves human interest stories like
this.

Wouldn't it be certain?

To expose that sneaky bastard right on
TV, that would be something.

You're dreaming. We couldn't get on TV
in a million years. Yeah, never

Never, never.

No, Mr. Franklin's not available.

Yes, I'll tell him.

I'm sorry, gentlemen, but Mr. Franklin
won't be seeing anyone for another

Oh, but it's a great human interest
story. Yes, we have all the stories. It

really is. This could be great. I'm
sorry. We're booked solid on human

stories. Thank you very much. We'll have
to come back another time. You and your

big ideas.

I told you you'd never get on. We took a
chance. You told me you'd never get on.

Suzanne, let me know the minute that
Breschkoff and his entourage arrive at

Franklin has got to talk to them before
the interview Thursday at the UN.

Important.

Breschkoff? Important.

Who?

Breschkoff. Important.

You can't go in there. What can't go in
there? I am in Thursday, Mr. Breschkoff.

Breschkoff? But you weren't due in till
Thursday.

Thursday?

Mr.

Breschkoff, he say you ain't important
Thursday. Important see Franklin now or

go. Mr.

Franklin. Mr.

Franklin. Mr.

Breschkoff.

Listen, I'd like to call you back.

Mr. Brezhkov.

Mr.

Brezhkov, he say he believe in Glaznot.
That mean I like you if you like me. But

you have to like me first.

Sit down, please.

He say, you have very important program.

Everybody like you. But when Krasnov he
come to you, everybody gonna like you

better than that couple.

Yes, yes.

Vodka, vodka.

Yes, yes.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Mr.

Brezhkov, he say you have big audience.

Big audience. Everybody like it,
Franklin, but...

When Brezhkov he come to show, you gonna
have bigger audience than... Than Howdy

Doody.

Howdy Doody.

Gentlemen, who the hell are you and what
are you really doing here?

Well, you see, we're in a cloak and suit
business, and we made some jeans.

He made some jeans. He's very nice.

He stole his design. He stole it from
one of his friends.

He deserves it. Now, Mr. Einhorn,
Reinhorn's office is right down here.

Right over here to the left.

Where does he take it? The office or
something?

Right over here. Over here.

Now, that's his office right in here.

Now, we're sitting down because he
always shifts on Tuesday.

Tuesday's the time. Hey, hey, hey, hey,
what's going on here?

That's him.

What's him?

That's Mr. Reinhorn. That's the man who
stole our design. That is ridiculous.

Stay with him.

You stole our advertising campaign.

What is this? You break into my factory
like a... Yeah, you're a thief. That's

what you are. Well, you can't make an
appointment and call me like...

please, please.

Now, I realize you all feel very
strongly about this, but let's take it

time so the audience can understand the
issues.

Fine with me. Okay, with me.

Now, Mr. Reinhorn.

These gentlemen claim you put them out
of work. That is absurd.

I gave the senior citizens a comparable
product at a lower price. It's open

competition. That's what America is all
about.

Stealing our design? Is that the
American way? It's an open marketplace.

Ask him who makes his jeans.

Ask him.

That's a fair question, Mr. Reinhorn.

Who makes your jeans?

What difference does it make? It makes a
lot of difference. Where are your jeans

made?

Taiwan. Taiwan.

That's great.

I wonder how many American seniors take
the subway to Taiwan every morning to

make his jeans.

I wonder how many American jobs he took
away. A soap opera? Yeah, it's a soap

opera about a firm that hires senior
citizens, people who are thrown away.

People you thought were disposable. Mr.
Franklin, these gentlemen are merely

looking for sympathy. The bottom line
here is they just don't know the

I don't know the business? I taught you
everything you know. Now teach us

something else.

Here, hold my cane. Wait a minute. I'll
teach you something. I'll show you what

it's all about. Wait a minute. Leave him
alone.

You know what I mean?

Shut it off.

Shut it off. Oh, boy.

I'm sorry. I blew our case.

I mean, I just got so hot, you know,
when he...

He lied right in front of my face. I
mean, I just, I lost, I saw red.

I'm sorry.

You told the truth.

You think they're going to care about
that?

All they're going to care about is that
his jeans are $10 cheaper.

The seams are going to come apart in no
time.

And he used buttons.

You think he gives a damn about people
with arthritis on a cold morning?

We had a chance to convince millions of
people and we blew it.

I think you boys did a pretty good job.

Wonderful. It's so wonderful.

How come nobody ever hugs me?

They don't want their pockets picked.

I

haven't got the heart

to tell them.

Can't put it off any longer.

Excuse me, folks. Could I have your
attention for a minute?

Look, you all worked very, very hard.

And we tried to make it a success. And
with your help, we almost made it. But

I'm sorry to say senior sophisticates is
now out of business.

The hard fact is that...

Well, we just can't meet the payroll.

You can't close.

We won't let you.

Here.

This is my mother's engagement ring.
It's worth $1 ,275.

Cash it.

There's $320 in my savings account, and
I'll withdraw at lunchtime. I got $95

here.

Count it.

Here's my gold bracelet.

You can have my watch.

The Rita Gallery called last night. I
sold a piece.

Oh, that's great, kid.

Thanks, thanks.

I would like to sign the check over as
soon as I get it to you guys.

Tony, I wouldn't think of it. I
wouldn't. Oh, come on, Dad, please. You

me when I needed it. Now, please.

You keep it. Keep it.

I love you anyway.

I just want to say one more thing, if I
may.

It's a very rare thing that you go into
business with...

people that you love.

It's even rarer that you find more
people that return to love.

I just want to thank you for all the
tremendous effort that you put in.

Sorry it didn't work.

Well, what is this, a wake?

Oh, hi, Alice.

Alice, how you doing?

I guess you haven't heard.

Heard what? What?

There's a huge crowd in front of
Reinhorn's building.

What? Picketing.

Picketing? Yes, hundreds of people.

Bloomingdale's wants an order of 6 ,000
pieces right away.

They want 6 ,000 pieces? 6 ,000 pieces
they want right away? Then the Franklin

show worked. Oh, did it work?

Reinhorn couldn't move his jeans if he
gave them away. Oh, that's great. Do you

know what this means?

Yeah, I know what it means.

Come on, what is this, a home for the
aged?

Everybody back to work.

Thank you, Alice.

Thank you so much.

Just make sure that you get those goods
on the right truck this time. Oh, don't

worry, we will. This time we'll walk
them over personally. We'll walk them.

I,

um... I'll talk to you soon.

Yeah.

You're going to let her go?

You're going to stand here like a yo
-yo? What's the matter with you?

Alice.

Have dinner with me tonight.

I... I don't think so. Hey, hey, Kate.
No more ghosts, huh?

I'll take you to your favorite
restaurant and I'll sing your favorite

Charlie, if I could just tell you...
Hey.

I'm not going to tell you I love you if
you don't have dinner with me tonight.

How about you come here?

Hello, senior sophisticates.

Who's calling?

Oh.

Hold the wire. I'll ask him.

Louie, Mr.

Reinhorn is downstairs.

He wants to see you.

You want to see him?

Mr. Reinhorn.

Yes.

Yes, I'd like to see him very much.

Hi, Louie.

Hi, Matt.

Look, Louie, I feel terrible about this.

No, I mean, what's come between us.

Actually, I got some lousy advice from
my board of directors.

What advice did your board of directors
give you this time, Matt?

What do you say we merge the businesses?

I want you guys to be my partners.

I already have partners now, Matt.

We'll give you a major piece of all
Reinhorn fashions, Louie.

Tell your board of directors thanks, but
no thanks.

So wait a second, Louie. My buyers are
turning their back on me now. You know,

the stockholders, they're going nuts.

Now give me a break here, would you,
Louie? Come on, really.

I could lose my business. At least talk
to your buyer.

Louie, what happened? What happened?

He made you an offer, right?

Nothing I don't already have.

Give me a light.

Again with the cigars? Yeah.

Give me the lighter, will you?

Come on. What are you doing?

Partners, allow me.

What is this, Christmas?

You must be delirious.

Smoke up and enjoy.

There you go.

Now, will you explain to me how we're
going to make 6 ,000 pieces on time?

Right. Same way we made 600 pieces on
time. No, no, no, no. You're talking 6

,000. That's 10 times the amount. So
we're talking 6 ,000. Where am I going

have the space? I can't make them in
this long. There's plenty of room in

barn. There's plenty of room. Not enough
room. There's more machines and more

people. That's all you've got to do. All
the machines and more people. All the

machines and more people.

You make them, you sell them, and I'll
handle the rest of it. Listen to him.

You make them. I've got to make them.

All of our lives we've had this. All of
our lives. I just can't understand you

at all.

Maybe we're ragged and funny, but we'll
travel along, singing a song side

by side.

Oh, we don't know what's coming
tomorrow.

Maybe it's trouble and sorrow, but we'll
travel the road, sharing our load side

by side.

Through all kinds of weather.

What if the sky should fall? We should
go on the stage, you know? As long as

we're together, it doesn't matter at
all.

Oh, we both have ourselves a big party.

Gee, we'll be as famous as we start.
