All language subtitles for Big Brown Eyes 1936 - Cary Grant, Joan Bennett, Walter Pidgeon_2

I see Mrs. Cole
lost her diamonds again.

Oh, she'll never miss them.

They were insured
for $200,000.

If she never gets it,
she won't have to worry.
She's got plenty of money.

The coppers say
they'll have those guys
in 48 hours.

Yeah, that's what
the coppers say.

They was insured for $200,000,
who's going to pay that?

I don't care, I don't have
to pay it.
Neither do I.

Maybe the insurance company
will find the diamonds.

It's a cinch the coppers
won't find them.

That's the third time
she's been robbed.

Where does
she keep that stuff,
in a goldfish bowl?

I don't know
where she keeps it,

but the crooks don't have
any trouble finding it.

Oh, it looks like
an inside job.

Yeah. There's something shady
about those jobs,

the diamonds always come back.

Yeah, but the crooks
are never caught.

Well, then somebody
must be in with the thieves.

Maybe it's the insurance
company.
You're right, honey.

The insurance company
pays a guy to get them back.

Who's the guy?
Why don't they arrest him?
Find him.

What do you think about it?

I never concern myself
with anything that
doesn't concern me.

That's the guy
who always gets
the diamonds back.

This one calls for $120,000
and this policy for $80,000.

$200,000 in all, huh?

Yes. Yes, exactly.
But of course I'm not as much
interested in the insurance

as I am in the return
of my property.

No, no, of course not.

Sentiment is more important
than money, isn't it?
That is, to you.

Yes, of course.

Very well, Mrs. Cole.

I'm quite sure all your gems
will be returned.

Oh, yes! And so am I.

All my friends have told me
how wonderful you are,

that you just never fail.

Never? Well, almost never.

Oh, you haven't
met Fifi, have you?
Isn't she sweet?

Fifi dear,
this is Mr. Morey.

He's going to get us
our diamonds back.

Thank him, thank him.
Say goodbye to the nice man.

Eeney, meeney, miney, moe.
I'll take this one.

Oh. So you're the guy
who ran his thumb
down my back.

Yours truly, Benjamin Battle.
Hahsit, babe?

Hahsit, yourself.

I knew it was you.
I know the feel
of your fingerprints.

Ouch! Never say
fingerprints when I'm around.
It gives me a sickly feeling.

Yeah? I'd have
a nasty answer for that
if I wasn't working here.

What can I do for you?

Oh, give me a manicure,
but don't rush it.

I like you to hold my hands.

Too bad I can't work
with my gloves on.

Well, well, Benny,
what's the matter?
No see you for long time.

Well, they had me downtown
for two weeks on a bum rap.

Poor kid.
They blame you for everything,
don't they?

You said it, beautiful.

The way
these coppers treat me,
you'd think I was a thief.

Yeah.
Policemen get
some funny ideas sometimes.

Don't they, though?
And me as honest
as the day is long.

Yeah, but how about
the nights?

The nights, too.
I'm the soul of honor.

Sure you don't mean the heel?
Wisecracker, huh?

Who make all this trouble
for you, Benny?
Oh, every cop on the force.

They're always on my tail.
Every time I turn around
I see another bull.

BENNY: Well, if it
isn't Daniel Barr,
the handsome dick.

Getting yourself dolled up?

Yeah. There's nothing
like spending a half hour
in a barbershop,

it makes a new man
out of you.

When did you get out
of the can?
About an hour ago,

thanks to the habeas corpus.

Yeah, and that shyster
lawyer of yours.

I wouldn't talk like that.
You might get pinched
for slander.

Yeah. And don't carry
any matches,

they're liable to charge
you with arson.

Hey, Chalkie,
get me a pineapple soda.

Get a big lump
of whipped cream on it
and a nice red cherry.

Hahsit, babe?

How do you like
that chair?

I like it,
especially when I'm tired.

Well, there's one upstate
looks just like it.

You wouldn't care
for that one, would you?

No, thanks.
I'm not that tired.

Turn to the right, weasel,
turn to the right.

Well, I'll see you again.
Yeah, I wouldn't be
a bit surprised.

Here you are, honey,
$1.90 and don't
shortchange me.

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Okay.

Barbershop.
Yes, ma'am. Yes, we do.

The manicures are all
busy now,

but I'll send one up
in a few minutes.

Yes, ma'am.

Well, sweetie,
next to your mother,
who do you love?

My sister.
That's the wrong answer.

I thought you were
gonna say me.

Yeah, I was,
but I changed my mind.

Stop kidding, will you?

There's something
about me you don't like.
Now what is it?

I couldn't give you
a decent answer.

I'm a woman
of very few words.

I can't understand it.
Why is it that you and me
can't get together?

Perhaps it's a strange feeling
we have for each other
that keeps us apart.

CASHIER: Oh, Eve,
when you're finished,
go to Room 408.

Okay.

(SLURPING)

Well, I hear you like that.

Mmm-hmm.

Hey, this doll
don't talk, does it?

None of them do.
They're all broken.
I'll make it talk.

Say mama.
(IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE)
Mama.

There you are.

Who do you love best,
your mama or your papa?

I love my mama
and my papa.

Hey, smart kid, that.
I couldn't trap her.

Why don't you buy one?

Well, I'll tell you
what I'll do,

when I have
some children of my own,

I'll buy a doll.
What are you doing?

Buying a drink.
Can you stand one?

I'll say. My throat feels
like a total stranger's.

DAN: Okay, honey.

Give me a pineapple soda
with a cherry on top.

Give me a cherry Coke
and put the cherry
on the bottom.

How'd you like that
for a crack?

Well, I'm not
supposed to be funny,
I'm a cop.

Hey, did Battle say
anything about me
after I left?

No. If he had,
I'd have slapped his face.

I hate that guy,
and he's been trying
to date me up for two years.

I've been trying
to date him up for life,

but crooked politicians
won't let me.

Well, skip Battle.
How about you
and me tonight?

Oh, yeah.
Look, honey,
I'm getting around to that.

I know I'm supposed
to take you to a picture
tonight, but it's off.

What? The picture?
No, the date.

See, some Texas guy
got taken for 30 grand,

so Daniel Barr
and his bloodhounds

was elected
to make the pinch.

Oh, well, just another
disappointment.

The world's full of them.

Full of what?

Disappointments.
What did you think
I meant? Bloodhounds?

I don't know, honey.
I've got so much on my mind.

I gotta go over to Hoboken
to see a Jersey cop.

Couple of other things
I gotta do.

Well, so long, toots.
Don't take any brass knuckles.

If I do,
I'll use them on you.

Hello, Jack.
How's the big columnist?

Fine. How's the little chump?

What do you mean, chump?

Chump for putting your money
into that machine.

Don't you know
they're all phonies?

What's phony about them?
Look at those prizes.

If you're lucky,
you can win one of them.

Yes, you can win one of them,
if you're lucky.

But how are you gonna
get lucky when
they're all fixed?

Look at that hole
marked 10,000.

Not a chance in the world
of getting a ball in there.

There isn't?
Then what am I
playing it for?

That's what I'd like to know.
Why does anyone play them?

There are a million
of those gags
in the United States,

averaging $5 apiece.

That's $5 million a day,
and that ain't hay.

Now, how about
you giving me some news?

How about the news
you just gave me?

Why don't you give that
to the public?

People pay five millions
a day to play marbles.
Children play it for nothing.

All marble machines are fixed.

Save your nickels
and give your money

to the Red Cross
instead of the double cross.

How's that?
That's fine.

You know,
you ought to be
working for me.

What do you mean,
working for you?

I can't be everyplace
at one time.

I've got several people
on my payroll.

Any time you want
to quit that barbershop,
let me know. You're smart.

You've got a nimble brain.

Thanks for the mistake.
Oh, there's no mistake.

You've got a great nose
for news.

All right, whenever I get
ready to stick my nose
in other people's business,

I'll let you know.
Gee, I've got to give
a dame in 408 a manicure.

MRS. COLE: Dear little thing,
now you have a nice
new ribbon on.

Don't you let
that ribbon get dirty.

Oh, you look so pretty,
you look perfectly lovely.

Oh, Mr. Barr,
I'm so glad to see you.
Have you got the jewels?

Well, not yet, Mrs. Cole.
You see, they were
only stolen yesterday.

Oh, yes, and when do you think
you will get them, tomorrow?

Well, I can't make
any promises,

but rest assured
we're doing our best.

Oh, now, that's awfully nice.

Oh, Mr. Barr,
have you met my dog?

Fifi, this is Mr. Barr.
Mr. Barr is a detective.
Isn't she sweet?

Oh, Mr. Barr,
won't you sit down?

Yes, of course you will,
I know you will.

Yes, thanks.
Oh, no, no,
come right over here.

Would you?
Yes, please do come over here.
All right.

And I know you'll have
some tea, won't you?
Won't you?

Yes, of course, you will.
I know you will.

Yes, well, Mrs. Cole,
the reason I came up
to see you is this.

We want you to keep
this robbery confidential.

I know it was
in all the papers
and all that,

but from now on,
keep the facts to yourself.

The facts, oh, yes, of course.
I wouldn't tell anyone.

Good.
Oh, now look,
isn't she sweet?

You know, I don't know
what I'd do without her.

Well, yes, of course
you want some tea, don't you?

Oh, the darling little thing,
she was so...

Oh, Mr. Barr.
I'm terribly sorry...
Oh, that's all right.

Oh, really, you know
accidents will happen,
won't they?

Oh, don't give it
a thought, Mrs. Cole.
Hilda!

Hilda, come get Mr. Barr's
coat and dry it.

Yes, now, please,
you must take it off...
Okay.

...because that's going
to stain.

Oh, Fifi, did you see
what I did?

I spilled tea
all over Mr. Barr's coat.

Fifi is a Pekingese.

Yes. Well, Mrs. Cole,
don't forget what I told you.

Keep the facts
of this thing to yourself,
won't you?

Oh, yes, I promise you
I won't tell anyone.

No one.
Oh, no, not to anyone,
not to a living soul.

But of course I've only
told it to one person,
only Richard Morey,

the private detective.

I get it.
Do you know him?

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Oh, somebody knocked.

Don't you love to hear
somebody knock?

It's always so intriguing,
you never know who it is.

It always makes you wonder.
Do you wonder?

Oh, it's the manicurist.
Well, I'll be with you
in just one minute.

Oh, Greta, Greta.
Come and take
Fifi out for her walk.

Give her a nice long walk,
right around Central Park.

Oh, let me see now,
the manicurist.

Oh, no, no.
No, I can't have you now.
I'm much, much too busy.

Suppose you come back at 5:00.
Well, you might make it 6:00.
Oh, or 7:00.

Oh, never mind,
you don't need
to come at all.

Oh, dear me. Now, Mr. Barr,
what were we talking about?

(DOOR SLAMMING)

Oh, what was that noise?

What was that awful noise?

Oh, yeah, yeah. The noise.
What was that noise, anyway?

I don't know, I'm sure.

Oh, well,
perhaps it was the door.

Of course it was the door,
but who banged it?

Now, I don't know.
Maybe it was the dog.
The dog?

Yeah, whose dog
was that, anyway?

Well, that's my dog,
but she never bangs doors.

Oh, she might have done,
dogs are funny that way.

I had a dog
that banged doors.

My dog never bangs doors.
I'd never permit
my dog to bang doors.

Well, maybe it was
the maid, Mrs. Cole.

It wasn't the maid,
my maid never bangs doors.

It must have been
the manicurist.

That's exactly who it was,
the manicurist.

She's got a dog.
Wait, I'll see her about it.

Give me that coat.

What's the matter, honey?
No tip?

Why the high blood pressure?
All men are cheats,

you can't even trust them
with a rubber doll.

You're a little vague, dearie.
What do you mean?

I mean there's
no such thing as love.

What made you think
of that?

I go upstairs
to manicure a dame in 408

and who do I find
as big as life?

I give up.
Who do you find?

Daniel Barr,
that flat-footed
lubber-headed cop.

Calling on the lady in 408?
Yeah.

And after I've worshipped
the ground he's walked on
for five years.

And those feet
cover plenty of ground.

All men are mice.
Yeah, whether they eat
cheese or not,

all men are mice.

Eve. Eve,
one of your customers.

Say, are you still
going with that plumber
in Poughkeepsie?

Oh, no.

I'm going with
a basketball player
from Dartmouth.

Oh, going in
for muscle.

I'm ready.

Hello, honey.

Oh, I suppose
you're sore at me.

Oh, no, I'm so happy
I could scream.

Oh, now, honey,
the whole thing
was a misunderstanding.

I didn't misunderstand
anything,

it's all clear to me.

What, you mean
that party on
the fourth floor?

No, I mean a party
on any floor.

Do you expect me
to believe you or what
I see with my own eyes?

Wait a minute, honey,
you got it wrong.

It was all in the line
of duty.

Since when does
a cop go to 5:00 tea?

Is that
in the line of duty?

No, it's just a line
you're handing me.

Who was that red-headed dame?
Is that the man from Texas?

No, no, no.
She lost her jewels.

She lost her jewels.
She lost her jewels.

Is that why the maid
took the dog for a walk?

Eve, Eve.
Oh, I know
what you're going to say.

I'm fired
and you want me
to leave right away.

All right, this is Wednesday.
Only three days' pay.

Goodbye and good luck.

Hey, what was...

(ALL LAUGHING)

LIFT ATTENDANT: Main floor.

Going up.

Aspirin.
Aspirin?

Yeah, I'm expecting
a headache.

In fact, I've got one.

What's the trouble?

I'm one of the army
of unemployed.

You quit your job?

Well, you can call it that,
but I was fired.

They have
nice perfumes here.

Yeah, if you can
afford them.

How much are these?
MALE CLERK: $55.

Give me four of them.
You must have lots of friends.

No, they're all for you.
Oh, but I couldn't.

Oh, but you could.
Oh, but I mustn't.

No, but you must
and you will.

How about
some candy, too, huh?

Here you are.
Do you like sweets?

One more for you.

Please. I'll have to get
a truck to carry
all these things home.

No, you won't.
My car is right here
at the door.

Charge it, will you?
Thanks, Mr. Morey.

An apartment, French maid,
your own car and chauffeur.

Doesn't it sound good?

Too good to be true.

It could be true.

And all I have to do
is manicure your nails?

Here's my house.

But, Eve, haven't
you forgotten something?

Yeah, my key,
but I'll slip through
the transom.

But what about the candy
and perfume?

Oh, give the candy
to your chauffeur
and use the perfume yourself.

(ORCHESTRA PLAYING)

Beautiful, isn't it?

Yes, about 36 karats.

You know her?

No. But I will.

Say, I cut your friend Battle
out today.

Cost me $12,000.

Don't know
if he's worth it.

No, he's all right,
we can use him.

Mmm-hmm.

Cortig,

if you bought a gift
for a girl and she refused
to accept it,

what would you do?

I'd give it to my wife.

I haven't a wife.
Thank you.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Who is it?

I'll give you three guesses.
Oh.

I only need one.
Take a walk, flatfoot.

Honey, don't be stubborn.
You got me all wrong.

I haven't got you at all.
You're back in circulation.

Oh, what's the use
of being like that?

Why don't you listen
to reason?

I am not in a listening mood.
My ears are tired.

Well, you're not too tired
to hear the truth, are you?

The truth's not in you,
copper.

You'd lie
about the weather.

I never lie to you.
I'm nuts about you,
honest I am.

You're the only girl
in the world for me.

I'm so crazy about you
I can't see straight.

You can't do
anything straight.

You're crooked all over.

Oh, have a heart,
will you, honey?

The whole thing's
just a mistake.

Yeah, I know it is,
and you made it.

Go on back
to the dame in 408.

That ain't a dame,
honest it ain't.

What is it,
a female impersonator?

No. The woman is Mrs. Cole.

She lost her jewels,
so the Inspector
sent me up to talk it over.

And what happened?

DAN: Nothing.
We talked it over, and while
we were talking it over,

she asked me
to have a cup of tea.

And what did you say?

I said "yes,"
so I had a cup of tea.

Strong or weak?

Weak.
No, I think it was strong.

Lemon or cream?

Cream, strong cream.

Strong cream?

I mean weak lemon.
Oh, I don't know what I mean.

Anyway, here's what happened.

We had some tea,
she lost her jewels

and all we did
was talk it over.

Now can I come in?

No. Go on back
and talk it over.

(IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE)
Hello, Dan,
what are you doing here?

(IN NORMAL TONE)
Oh, nothing. Just calling on
a friend of mine.

(IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE)
Say, you look like
you're upset. What happened?

Oh, nothing.
Just looking for a friend,
but I guess he moved.

Well, say,
I still live here.

How about you and me, huh?

(IN NORMAL TONE)
What do you mean?

(IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE)
Well, let's go up to my place
and have a little talk.

Oh, I don't know.
I ain't much
on conversation.

I don't know
how to talk.

What's the difference?
Say, I'll do all the talking.

And then again,
maybe we won't talk at all.

Maybe we'll just sit
and look at each other
like we used to do.

You know...

(IN NORMAL TONE)
Look at each other?
Why, that ain't much fun.

(IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE)
Oh, say, you're not
like you used to be.

Come on, be yourself.

Hey, I remember
when you used
to look at me and like it.

Yeah, but that was
long ago.

(IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE)
Well, what of it?

Let's renew acquaintance.

Say, remember how
I used to sit on your lap
and run my hand

through your hair?

Oh, come on.
Don't make yourself
so hard to get.

Come on, Dan,
give me a little kiss,
will you?

(IN NORMAL TONE)
Well...

(SMACKING)

Cute little trick
you just pulled.

Yeah. You know,
when I was a kid
I did a ventriloquist act.

Which part did you play,
the dummy?

Oh, you sure can be nasty
when you try.

Yeah. You can be nasty
without trying.

Oh, come on, cut it out,
let's be friends.

I don't want to be friends,
I want to be enemies.

You'd better come out
from under there.

You're going to smother
yourself to death.

I hope I do.
I'm tired of living, anyway.

Oh, don't be silly.
Life is sweet.

This is a beautiful world.

It would be,
except for certain people.

Yeah, who are
the certain people?
You.

Oh, what's the use
of getting yourself
all steamed up about nothing?

You know I don't care
about anyone else but you.

I'm not so sure about that.

Oh, come on, talk sense.

Look, why don't you marry me
and settle down, huh?

We can have a nice
little place on Long Island.
You know, with a farm.

Yeah, we can have
some pigs and cows
and ducks and chickens.

Cows and chickens.
And chickens.

You said that.
Oh, did I?

Well, look. Wouldn't you like
to get up early in the morning
and feed the chickens?

No. Now go on home.
I want to get some sleep.

Well, you got plenty of time
to sleep tomorrow.
You got no job to go to.

Oh, no?

No, it's gonna be
a long time before
you get another one, too.

Well, you can't
get rolled off for trying.

Wait a minute,
will you, honey?

Oh, I wish you were a man.

Same to you.

Give me Beekman 3-0-0-0-5.

That's a newspaper.

Clever detective.

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Hello, Jack Sully speaking.

Hello, Jack,
this is Eve Fallon.

You said I had
a nose for news.

SULLY: I know I did.
What about it?

I'm ready to start sniffing.
How about that job
you promised me?

How about the barbershop?
You gonna quit?

I quit already.

I got tired of meeting
cops and crooks.
They get in your hair.

Okay. Be at my office
at 10:00 tomorrow morning.

You're on the payroll now.

Thanks, Jack,
I'll see you at 10:00.

Well, Mr. Daniel Barr,

I go to work
for Mr. Jack Sully

of the Daily Bulletin
tomorrow morning,

and I expect to be editor
in no time at all.

If you happen
to be around my way,

come up and see me sometime.

EVE: (IN FALSETTO)
Oh, hello, Jack.
What are you doing here?

(IN DEEP VOICE)
Just waiting for a friend.

Did you get rid
of that big bozo?

No.

(IN FALSETTO)
No. He's still out there.

(IN DEEP VOICE)
Want me to throw him out?

(IN FALSETTO)
Why bother? Why bother?

(IN DEEP VOICE) Come on,
give me a little kiss.

(SMACKING)

(IN FALSETTO)
Oh, you have beautiful hair.

I love to run my hand
through it.

(IN DEEP VOICE) Come on,
give me another little kiss.

How are you, boys?
Hi.

Oh, say, I'll tell you
why I asked you down here.

I don't know
who's got that stuff,
but you do.

I know who's got the stuff,
but I don't know
what they've got.

Well, here's the list.

When you pay those gentlemen,
you'll know exactly
what to expect in return.

Cigarette?
Right.

Yeah, but suppose
they won't take
what you offer them?

They'll take it.

If they do business
with a fence,

it'll take them a month
to get paid.

I pay off at once,
strictly cash.

(MRS. COLE GIGGLING)
You can put me down
for $1,000, gentlemen.

I'm always glad
to contribute to charity.

Thanks.
Oh, Mr. Morey.

How do you do, Mrs. Cole?
I've been looking
for you everywhere.

Really?

Do you know
you forgot to return
my cigarette case?

Did I?
Well, I'm terribly sorry.

Oh, here it is.
Oh, thank you.

You know, I'm always
taking things that
don't belong to me.

Oh, Mr. Morey,
and you a detective.
Yes.

Fifi, Fifi,
you remember Mr. Morey.

How is Fifi, Mrs. Cole?

Well, I think
she's quite all right,

but her eyesight's failing.

Poor little Fifi.
Won't she look
horrible in glasses?

That's probably
why she didn't recognize
me this morning.

Maybe so.

Well, this looks
like the place.

Yeah. There they are, there.

(CAR DOOR SLAMMING)

Well, have you got
those stones with you?
Certainly not.

You don't think I'm gonna
carry that much stuff
around with me, do you?

Well, I don't know.

Anyhow, let's get
down to business.

What do you want for them?

Seventy grand.

What are you trying to do,
scare those pigeons here?

I was told to give you 40.
Forty?

They were insured for 200.
What happens to the other 160?

Well, now you're asking
questions.

Yeah, and we'd like
to get some answers.

(WHISTLES)

Hahsit, babe?

Our price is 40,
and that's what
you're gonna get.

We'll get what we want
and not a penny less.

Hey, what are you trying
to do,

pick an argument?

No, are you?
No, I ain't,
but suppose I am?

Then here it is.

(GUN FIRING)

Why isn't something done
about the baby killers
in the park?

How long do we have to wait
before they're apprehended?

What's the matter
with the cops?

What's the matter
with the Chief?

What's the matter
with the Mayor?

Why don't
they clean up the city?

What we want is action!
Protect our women
and children!

Take every known gunman
and throw him into jail
and keep him there,

that's where they belong!

That's great.
That's the kind of stuff
we want in the paper.

How long you been here?
Just a couple of days.

A couple of days?
You should have
been here years ago.

You know how to write.
What's your salary?

Mr. Sully pays me
30 bucks a week.

Thirty bucks?
Make it $35. $40.

No, you better make it $50.

EVE: Hello,
what do you want?

You know what I want, honey.
I want you.
Got a warrant?

Oh, quit kidding, will you?
Forget I'm a cop
for a little while.

Treat me like a human being.
All right. Sit down.

I'll treat you
like a human being.

But don't let it
go to your head.

Hey, if anything
goes to my head,
it won't be that. Listen.

EVE: What are you gonna do,

tell me about those cows
and pigs and chickens again?

Oh, not now.
Look, I got
an assignment today

that will make me
the biggest cop in New York.

What for, taking that dog
for a walk?
Oh, forget it, will you?

Listen, I got a big job
on my hands.

Yeah, well, what is it?
I'm all ears.

Well, you know
those guys that killed
the baby in the park?

No, do you?
No, but I'm going to.

The Inspector picked me
to catch them.

And Sherlock Barr
is gonna catch them.

You can say it twice.
I got a witness already.
I'm holding her downtown.

And another thing.

I found a list
of the missing jewels

right near where
the baby was killed.

That means that both jobs
were done by the same mob,
don't it?

Gee, that's great.
Well, I gotta be going, honey.

What's the matter,
got a date for tea?

Handsome Dan Barr gets
his biggest assignment.

The capture
of the baby-killers.

Inspector Keilly
picked the right man.

Barr already has one witness
to the shooting.

Hey. What's the rush?
Where are you going?

You'll find this evening's
column on the record.

I'll be back later
with bigger and better news.

Ain't a woman got no rights?

Here they are holding me
as a material witness

and I don't know nothing
about nothing.

I don't know what you know,
but whatever you know,

you ought to tell it
to the cops.

Oh, the cops.
I hate every one of them.

Oh, one of them is all right.
Gee, he was handsome.
His name is Dan.

Yeah?
What did he have to say?

Oh, strictly business.
He asked me what happened,

and I says nothing.

I was walking along
in the park

when a fresh guy says,
"Hahsit, babe?"

What'd the fresh guy say?

Nothing.
He just says, "Hahsit, babe?"

"Hahsit, babe"?
Yeah.

He was one of them oily guys,
but I didn't say nothing
to him.

I just smiled
and walked away.

And then, all of a sudden,
the baby was shot.
But I didn't see it.

Honest, I didn't.

Hahsit, babe?

Yeah, say, listen, why don't
they let me out of here?
I'm a citizen.

Can't you do nothing for me?

Listen, honey,
I'll get you out of here,

but you gotta
make me a promise.

Yeah, sure. I'll do anything.
Just get me out of here.

All right. Listen to this.
If anybody asks you
any questions,

don't answer them.
Say nothing.

Nothing at all?
Gee, that's kind of hard.

Nothing at all.
Not even, "Hahsit, babe?"

If I showed you a picture
of that guy

that flirted with you,
would you know him?

Oh, sure,
I'd know that pan anywhere.

That's all I want to know.

You got
the wrong idea, Cortig.

I told you a million times
to always take
the easy way out.

Well, I always try to.

When a guy puts you on a spot
where you gotta push him,
what are you gonna do?

Do what I told you to do,
talk him out of it.

Yeah, that's all right
for you,

but me, I got a temper.

When a mug gets me sore,
I gotta blast.

Sure, you gotta blast
and I have to square the beef.

Every time you bump
somebody off,
it costs me a lot of money.

Do me a favor, will you, Russ,
and stop killing people.

Oh, quit worrying
about it, will you?
Nobody saw me do it.

There wasn't anybody around,
not even a blind man.

Whoa, wait a minute.
Get a load of this.

"Crime marches on. A baby
in Central Park was killed
by two unknown assailiants."

Assailants.
Yeah, assailants.

"And the killers have
not yet been taken
into custoady."

Custody.
Yeah, custody.

Gee, that's a funny word,
ain't it?
Yeah.

"The killers have
not yet been taken into..."

Custody.
"Custody."

"But are under surveilliance."
Surveillance.

Yeah, that's what it is.
And here's the rest of it.

"There was only
one eyewitness,

"and the name is withheld."

What kind of a name is that?
Go on, go on.

"Whose name is withheld

"and she is being held
in-communi-cadoo."

Incommunicado.

I don't care
how you pronounce it,

but they got a dame
who saw us do it.

And that's all because
you've got a temper,
Mr. Cortig.

Well, now what
are we going to do
with the girl?

Oh, don't worry
about the girl.

Look, as soon
as they spring her,

we'll scare her out of town

and if she won't scare,
we'll dust her off.

Yeah, hey that's it,
we'll massacree her.

Massacre.

Oh, you
and your phony English.

Sixty cents.

Keep the change.
Gee, thanks.

Say, ain't you the gal
that got your name
in the paper?

Yeah, sure. How did you know?
Did somebody point me out?

Yeah, everybody
knows it's you.
You're getting famous.

Quit it,
you're ribbing me.

No, he ain't.

First thing you know,
you'll be signing
your autograph.

Just like a movie star.

Oh, get those cigarettes
out of that gray coat,
will you, toots?

Yeah, sure.

Hey, what're you trying to do,
scare somebody to death?

If a certain lady don't keep
her mouth shut,

we might have to kill
her to death.

Well, if you're hinting at me
and what I said to the cops,

well, you got me all wrong.

I never told them nothing.

Don't forget it, honey,
the coppers never know nothing

unless somebody
tells them something.

But I never
told them a thing,
honest I didn't.

Take a tip from me, sister,
and keep your mouth shut,

or somebody's liable
to find your hat
floating down the river.

You know what I mean?
Yeah, sure.
I know what you mean.

Hello, Betty.
BETTY: Hello, Eve.

Hello.
GIRL: Hello, Eve.

Hello, Grace.
GRACE: Hello, Eve,
how are you?

Hiya, Myrtle.
Remember me?

Well, if it isn't
the big newspaperwoman.
What are you doing here?

A murderer always returns
to the scene of his crime.

I'm going to get a haircut.

Say, listen.

Are you still stuck
on that big, handsome cop?

With all my heart.
And he's going to be
in here in a few minutes.

See you later.
Sweet.

How long
you gonna be, Joe?
I want a haircut.

Five minutes. Booth one.
Hey, I'll cut it for you.

I always cut mine.

Oh, cut yourself
a piece of throat.

Hahsit, babe?

Well, look who's here.
Back again.

Once a slave,
now a customer.

Don't you look swell.
All dressed up
like a plush horse.

Nothing swell.
I got the whole outfit
in the basement.

$14 for the coat and dress
and $3.75 for the hat.

BOTH: $17.75!

Hello, Myrtle. Eve around?

Yeah. You'll find her
in a booth.
Okay, thanks.

Hey, you got me
in a fine spot.

"Handsome Dan Barr will
capture the baby killers
in 24 hours."

Well, it's just what
you're going to do.

How do I know, honey?
You don't, but I do.

Yeah, since when
are you a cop?

I'm not,
but I've got a hunch.

Oh, hunches
don't mean nothing.
You gotta be sure.

All right. How's this?

I had a talk with that
waitress yesterday and
showed her Benny's picture.

And she absolutely
put the finger on him.

How's that for a hunch?

Hunch?
It'll make me a captain.

Yeah, and me an Elk.

Benny Battle, huh?

Yeah, you'll find him
in the first chair
eating a pineapple soda

with a cherry on top.
Right.

Hello, Dan.
Nice day, ain't it?

Yeah, and you better
take a good look at it.

You ain't going
to see it much.

What do you mean?

We want you downtown
to answer a few questions.

Get Mr. Battle's
hat and coat, Eddie.

What, again?
Yeah, again.

Never mind that stuff, Joe.

He don't need to smell so nice
where he's going.

Gee, can't a guy
even get his hair combed?

No. The Captain don't care
how you look.

This is a fine country,
this is.
They never let you alone.

No. They're always
picking on you.
Yeah.

Hahsit, babe? Come on.

There's no jail strong enough
to hold that guy.

You said it, he'll get out.

How?
How? He's got
a crooked lawyer.

That ain't it,
they fix the jury.
Who does?

The politicians.

What have the politicians
got to do with it?

They're in with the racket.

Sure. They'll have
him out in 48 hours.

You mean that he'll be free?

Yeah! The home of the brave
and the land of the free.

Is that the man you saw?

No, I never seen him before.
Go ahead.

Do you know him?
No.

Go on.

How about this guy?

No. I never
seen him before.

Better take
a good look at him.

Well, I am.
I don't know him.

Are you sure?
Sure I'm sure.

Go on, take another
good look at him.

I am looking at him.
I never seen him
before in my life.

What are you lying for?
You know you did.

I'm not! I'm not!

I've never seen this guy
before in my life.
Honest, I didn't.

All right. Go on.

Somebody got to this dame.

He didn't show me
the right guy.

She's lying.
She won't put
the finger on him.

Why not?
Because he didn't
show me the right guy.

How about those pictures
I showed you yesterday?

You picked one out,
didn't you, and said
it was the guy

who flirted with you
in the park.

Well, I know I did,
but I made a mistake.

What makes you think
you're mistaken?

You were sure enough
yesterday.

I know I was,
but I guess I was wrong.

You're lying, Bessie.
You know you are.

No, I'm not.
I'm not lying.
Why should I lie?

I ain't got nothing
to lie about.
I didn't do nothing.

Oh, don't cry, honey.
Nothing's gonna
happen to you.

Run along home.

Now what happens?

Oh, somebody threw
a scare into that dame.
Now I'm on the spot again.

What's the next step?
Yeah. I'd like to know that.

That guy'll be out of here
in less than no time and we'll
be back where we started.

BENNY: Keep your hands off me
or somebody'll get a bust
in the nose around here.

What's the matter?
Can't a guy even talk
to his own lawyer?

No.

Hey, what are you going to do,
throw him in there?

You can't do that!
I can't, hey?
Watch me.

Say, where do you get
that stuff?

That man's
got constitutional rights.

He is innocent
and you've got no right
to lock him up.

I'll see somebody
about this.

All right, see me.
I'm the guy
that brought him here.

Yeah, you.
You brought him here.

Why don't you get
the right man
before you lock him up?

You can't throw
people in jail
for no reason at all.

Oh, shut up. You're lucky
you're not in there yourself,

I'd like to get
something on you.

You can't talk
to me like that.
I'm a lawyer!

That's what you think.
Now get out of here!

I'll get even
with you for this.

I'll have you transferred
to Brooklyn.
I'll go to the Chief.

I'll go to the Mayor.
I'll go to the Governor!

Oh, go to...
Get out of here.

There you are.
How would you like
to go to Brooklyn every day

to see your boyfriend?
Brooklyn? No thanks.

That's the wrong end
of the bridge.

Yeah. We'll be up
against it if we can't get
that dame to talk.

How about Battle?
Isn't there any chance
of breaking him down?

No, he's just
as scared as she is.

He's afraid
of what those crooks
might do to him.

How much longer
can you hold him?
