B.B. King's autobiography.

are you talking about?

last night,

for "Big Beat."

the less we'll talk.

he'll find out about Elizabeth

a little piece of, um, cheese,

Uh, you really think
you should, B.B.?

You know how that cheese
disagrees with you

upset.

Woody, you got to
get out of here,

just evened the score.

That's right.

If it hadn't been
for Woodrow,

B.B. never would have
left St. Louis.

You know, I think I would have
been very happy with Esther.

But I think
I'm much more happier

the blues with Lucille.

what I had in mind.

Well, what did you
have in mind?

and record it.

something I can do.
