Watch your step.

One and two. Three and four.

Five and six.

Watch your step.

Lift your feet.

Lift your feet.

That is right.

One and two. Three and four.

Around the jump. Peer away.

One.

Jean Dijon, peer away.

One, two, three.

Please, stop, stop, please.

Stop, stop, stop.

Oh, my, everybody dismissed.

Everybody.

Please, come here.

Come here.

Look, what is the matter? You are not dancing.

Get rid of the gun, please.

Look, you are sabotaging the girls. They don't dance. You don't dance. What's the

matter? Look, Doc, they don't want your stuff today. They want the jive, the hot

stuff. You've got to dish it out to them. Sure, you've got to be in that

groove, Jackson.

Skin me, skin me. Jackson, groove me, skin me? Oh, my.

What is this dance coming to?

What would Nijinsky say if he were here today?

No tour jeté and no pit away.

What would Nijinsky say?

The tour jeté is passé.

The rond de jean will go.

No, no.

The arabesque is in burlesque and making quite a show.

You start a little bit and then you do that.

You cut a little bit and then you do that.

Please, please.

A little tour jeté. A beer away.

A rond de jean. Another one. And that is ballet.

It's our rule.

A dance ain't a dance until you jump it.

You fool!

If that's your idea when you dance, I won't dance. Then pump it. Pump it?

Please, I don't do that. You kick a little hot and then you do that. No, no.

You pick a little spot and then you do that. No, no.

And then it's up to you. And if you do, you won't enjoy a dance until you do

that again.

Let's keep on. We have no place to go. Come on.

Hey, did you hear that out there? We killed him.

That's great, but we're still closing.

Closing? What'll happen to my mother's pool room?

Say, this is no time for kidding. Our box office is the loneliest spot in

Joplin. Why do we care? We got two weeks booked in the meat market.

I divided up all the cash on hand. Principals and chorus share alike.

It comes to 15.75 apiece. Stay in show business and you'll get wrinkles and

some bitter philosophy.

Sorry, girls.

I thought you two would go places. We did.

Now we got to worry about getting back.

Could be worse.

It will be.

Well,

here we are, up to Hollywood and all packed. What have you got in there? My

agent. Just think of it, $1,000 a week.

$1,000 a week. Will we get it? No, just think of it. Have you got a job waiting?

What is this?

Pin?

Merry madcaps. Keep that corny act of yours out of Hollywood.

Nothing's... Wait a minute. Now, you see, we've got connections.

Why, we'll panic them in that town. They'll be naming sandwiches after us.

Ham and cheese.

Why, you should see the sunshine out there, the beautiful palm trees, the

lemons are the size of watermelons. And the watermelons are the size of lemons.

You should see the coconuts out there. We've never had a coconut like that.

Will you let me say something? Well, if you've got a funny line, go ahead.

I suppose you have lots of room in your car.

Lots of room? We've got a big limousine, 15, 20 people. Okay, I'm sold. We'll go

along. Sure, they'll go along.

Go along?

Now, wait a minute, wait a minute, kids. No, no, it's not for you. It's terribly

hot out there.

The girls walk around with ice cubes for earrings. They do? Sure, and the lemons,

they're just lemons.

They are? And the coconuts, I mean, you walk in the street, one falls down and

hits you right on the head. They do? Sure, you wouldn't like it. And the palm

trees, the big...

You wouldn't like it.

Oh, but Sonny, just think of those poor boys driving all that way alone.

It's our duty to go along and protect them. Of course it is. You stay here.

We'll pack and be right down.

You and your big mouth.

What do you mean? I didn't say a word to them. They just want to go. What do you

want?

Thanks.

Come on, old paint.

If we can do without food, you can do without gasoline.

Hey, be careful.

Don't worry, honey. I've been driving this car two years and never had a

wreck. You mean you've been driving this wreck two years and never had a car.

I hope that town ahead's got a free lunch counter.

Don't we ever stop to rest?

Suddenly ain't feeling good. Well, let's get it fixed.

There's a garage.

What are we gonna use it for money?

Hey, here comes the mechanic. He looks like a cinch. Let's give him routine 94.

It never fails.

Howdy, folks.

Have a breakdown?

No, thanks. Just had one. Well, I'll take a look.

What kind of a place is this?

It used to be a ghost town. There's a big boom here in 92.

I can still hear it. It was deserted for about 50 years. Boom's on again now.

Mercury in the hills. They use it for high explosives.

Brewster people put up a processing plant down the road.

Well, I hope we're not late for the bankers' convention today.

Why, we can settle this while we wait. Suppose we put three million into the

amalgamated deposit bottles.

Oh, uh, four million. No, no, now listen, please. Let's not argue about

another million.

On the level, boys. Have you got a nickel for a bottle of soda?

A nickel? Where do you get those big ideas?

You're lucky.

A broken gasket, a couple of worn-out spark plugs, and a split fan belt.

That'll run you about $78.50. Uh, what'd you say?

$78.50 in advance. In advance, $78.50. Of course.

Well, that's mere bag of tell. I have it right here in my change purse.

Jeez, my, it's dark in there.

Well, I'll tell you what. You fix it, and we'll send you a check.

Look, brother.

Oh, folks. No checks.

No checks. Well, direct me to the nearest bank. They know me here, you

know. Right down the street. Down the street. That's fine. Grab the bags and

let's get on it. No, you don't. Now, you owe me $3.48 for my labor already. I

ain't gonna get stuck with that junk heap.

The girls stay, and you mugs go down and rustle up the dough.

I have a good mind to call a conference of our barrister. Listen, friend.

I've been in the garage business a long time, and I'm on to all them phony

dodgers. Don't pull any more of them. Okay, okay. When we get back, we expect

an apology.

Well, when will you be back?

As soon as we collect our unemployment insurance.

Routine 94.

No wonder that show of ours, Fancies of 1943, never got past 1942.

What are you gonna do about the girls?

We'll figure something out. I can figure better on a full stomach. Yeah? Hey,

there's a restaurant. Let's eat. What are we gonna use for money?

What are we gonna use for money? We give them routine 77.

You mean where we squawk about the food? Of course. We walk in and holler and we

give them the business. We say, look, the steak is no good. We... Yeah,

that's right.

All right, let's put it on good. Okay.

How about some service here? What do you say there?

Come on. Come on.

We'll play special on a free lunch. That man is right. Give him $25. And a set of

junior encyclopedias. He wins.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

What are you guys going to have? OK, bring in three cows. Heat them up and no

cowbells. And a couple of dozen loaves of bread. Whole wheat with a side order

of steaks, you know.

Three steaks for three stoops.

And a steak salad.

Hey, and for dessert, I'll tell you what the steaks.

Steaks, well.

those big ones we had sent out from Kansas City? Wait your turn and stop

pounding on that counter. Ain't you got any manners?

Oh, OK.

Sorry. Take your time. You know us, Jerry. I mean, Mr. McIntosh, anything

you say goes.

What's the matter? Is Chef temperamental? I'll hit him over the

head with my brother. Shh. There isn't another cook within miles. We had to

leave with kid gloves.

And if he says the word, we eat the gloves.

Oh, come on. Come on, Brinkley.

What's with this guy here?

Come on, let's have it. Come on in, Jerry. Here it comes now. Come on that

way. Look, get it over there.

Come on.

Is that the way to serve a steak? I like it. I like it. Why do I care what you

like? The customer's always right.

No matter how we do it, I want it.

Say, are you crazy?

We had to pay that guy a bonus to come all the way out here and cook for us. So

what? So what?

So what?

Hm,

what kind of steak is this? This is terrible.

It's my days if I taste anything like this. I get more nourishment sucking my

thumb. Taste this, will you?

Hm, tastes like a motor man's mitt. Here, taste this.

That's tougher than a lady's heart. Taste this.

Let me tell you.

Cut that talk.

Say, what are you doing here anyway? This is our workers' club, and if you

don't like it... He isn't even a mess cook. He's a mess.

I'd be ashamed to take money for such food. What did those dopes say?

They said you didn't charge enough for such swell steaks. They love them.

Why, Mama could cook better than this. And she gave Papa ulcers. Yeah.

What was that last crank?

Oh, they said the steaks were just like Mother used to make.

I said the steak would...

You tell him, brother. The food is awful.

That's what I'm trying to tell him. Sure, it's terrible.

Well, I can cook better with a washing machine.

What do you guys know about cooking?

What do we know about cooking? Well, we're experts.

Look, we graduated from cooking school with flying crullers.

Now, when I prepare a steak, of course, I first try to find a cow with a nice

smile on his face. Of course. When I was learning how to cook, first of all, I'd

take two chickens.

Yeah. And then I'd take...

Two ducks.

Yeah. And then I take two turkeys.

Yeah. And I put them all in a little pot. Yeah.

Crowded, isn't it?

Listen, I've been asking you in a nice way, and I'm telling you, one more crack

out of you and out you go, all except your teeth.

That's done it. Out I go.

But don't walk out on us. We'll make him apologize.

I tell you, I'm through. That's all. I'm washed up. But you can't walk out on a

contract. Contract? Don't say they can insult me.

I told you he brought that cook all the way from Los Angeles. And paid him a

bonus. An outfit of this place.

Which ain't any good without a cook. And you walk in here and start calling him

names. But all I did was just say that. That was a lot of big talk about

cooking. No.

Now get out there in the kitchen and go to work or else.

And be careful. We had those steaks sent from Kansas City.

And if you spoil them. There's a tree up Main Street where they used to hang

cattle. No, fellas, you can't. Yeah, it's a big tree. There's room enough for

three. I'll get some torn feathers. Just some cake. Now get out of here.

so they can't do a run out. OK, Tommy.

Hey, where are you going?

Oh, no place.

We just want to see what's cooking.

Now listen, a fellow sent me in here to watch you guys.

You're supposed to be cooks.

So get going on those steaks, you hear?

Now! All right. OK.

All right.

Get that steak out of there.

We'll show you how to fix a continental steak, a continental.

Water. Water.

Water. Water.

Apron. Apron.

Apron. Apron, you know.

Salt. Salt.

Salty. Salty. Pepper.

Pepper.

Oil. Oil.

Oil. Oil. Oil.

Instrument. Ready to cut, sir? Yes.

Oxygen. Oxygen. Hey, what kind of a way is that to cook a steak?

Come

on,

you guys. Get that steak out of here.

Now, you stay here and watch the steak.

We'll make the trimmings. Oh, yeah, trimmings.

Trimmings. Trimmings.

Hey, what are you going to do with that shoe?

I thought I'd make some shoestring potatoes.

Oh.

And what are you making?

I'm going to make a nimbleg salad.

You see, first you take some lettuce.

Yeah.

Then a tomato.

Yeah.

Then some celery.

Yeah.

And then some salt.

Salt? Of course, you gotta have something to wash it down.

Hey, I smell steak on the fire.

Say, maybe those guys are cooks.

Hello. Say, how's that steak coming? Oh, steak, yes.

Don't worry about it. With us boys cooking, you can eat dirt cheap.

Hey, the steak. What happened?

Just passed away.

What?

We better make some meatballs.

Okay, I'll get the potatoes.

Meatballs, you know.

Right on.

Ball one.

Ball one? What are you talking about? That was a strike right over the plate.

Give me that step.

Come on, hurry up and get it.

Come on.

You're out.

Out? Who's out?

You're out. Yes, he's right. You're out. I said you're out.

He said you're out.

Yeah, you're out.

You're out.

He's out.

He's out.

Hey, what's going on?

They're running three strangers out of town. They insulted the cook.

chop suey they said they could cook yeah we said all the way to kansas city for

some good steaks and these three dopes were spoiling them spoiling steaks three

of the most famous chefs in the country why did you expect them to soil their

hands they just direct the cuisine we do the actual cooking they're artists quick

thinking miss all right we'd like to see some of that actual cooking right this

way come on boys back

They had me all tied up there, giving me a bonus and a contract. I thought I'd

never find an excuse to walk out.

How they lived through your crookedness is indeed a wonder.

It would give indigestion indigestion. When you offered me all this dough just

to keep that big barn vacant, I figured tough stakes was the answer. By the way,

mister, what's your angle?

Well, you see, the guy I work for wants to keep that place empty.

So that's why he give you all them green pictures of George Washington.

And that's all, brother. That's as far as you go.

OK. Just asking.

It's the kitchen. Let's see what you can do.

Wait a minute.

This is for you. Remember, the boys will be waiting. Good, then we'll put our

hair up in curlers. Get in there.

Okay, kids, come on. Now, get busy and cook something up, will you? Say, Madge,

do you know anything about cooking? What? Well, I know you serve two

vegetables with a meat order. What do you mean to say you don't know how to

cook up a steak? Well, I could make an omelet. An omelet? Well, can you make it

taste like a steak?

Come on, dear, we can try.

What do you mean try?

If they kill us, we'll never talk to you again. Yeah.

Hey, this is steak.

They've got the touch all right.

Yeah, you can taste the meat through the grease.

Yeah, but what about dinner tomorrow?

That's right. They're going on to Hollywood from here.

Oh, we got to keep them here if it takes forage.

Tommy, you got class. Why don't you go in and see if you can get them to stay?

Sure, give me your best line.

You're the only one who can do it. That's all we got to eat. Turn on your

charm. You know, you can fix it up. It works.

Okay.

Now be careful and don't spill. All right, all right.

Okay. Take it easy.

Hello.

Hi.

What's with you?

Well, uh, would you like to smoke a piece, Pipe?

No, I prefer my own brand.

Oh.

Thanks a lot for the cooking.

If we never have another mouthful, at least today we've lived.

Cooking with all this apparatus is easy. We learned with canned heat and a coffee

lid. Well, how would you like to carve your initials on the tables in the

coffee pot?

Okay, so we carve our initials. Then what?

Then you own a restaurant. I was promised to make a coat once.

Turned out to be rabbit.

Did we have a lucky number or something? How come we own a restaurant?

Well, the ghosts didn't need the cooking and the chemical workers do. That's why

we set this club up for ourselves.

Somebody's got to run it.

Uh, maybe we ought to kick this around a while.

What are we, actresses or hash slingers?

Do you want my opinion or the critics? Look, I don't know anything about that,

but take a look at the menu. The prices look like the Yukon Gold Rush. We'll

turn the whole place over to you and all the profits.

Sonny, I suddenly got a vision.

A ticket to Hollywood on a pile of steaks and a wardrobe.

Something to show us off, just not cover us up. Yes. Is it a deal?

You're now looking at two snappy kitchen mechanics. Good, good. Don't go away.

Stay right here. Everything's going to be fine.

French. What do you mean? We dust it off every morning.

and we fellas want to get to Hollywood.

Don't you think it's a little bit too far to walk? And besides, we now own a

restaurant. Restaurant? What do we care? That has nothing to do with us. What are

we going to do here? Well, you can be the dishwasher.

Dishwasher? Are you silly?

Remember, boys, it's three square meals a day.

Oh, three square meals.

Three square meals.

You know,

it's hard to believe.

Two weeks ago, we didn't have a dime. Now we're running a nightclub.

Some nightclub.

Well, we've got a floor, even if we haven't got a floor show.

Well, the customers seem to like it.

Merrily, merrily, we roll along.

Love is on bicycle wheel.

Merrily, merrily, we roll along.

Who needs automobile?

There's nothing like pedaling, pedaling, pedaling, two on a bike.

Take a one-seater and what could be sweeter than two on a bike?

I'm happy I'm facing the chance of embrace the girl that I like.

While they go pedaling, pedaling, pedaling through on a bike.

Shall we dance, honey?

Come on, Madge. I haven't had a chance to dance for a month. Sure.

There's nothing like pedaling, pedaling, pedaling. Two on a bike. Two on a bike.

Take a one-seater and what could be sweeter than two on a bike?

Two on a bike. There's lots of freewheeling and the chances for

stealing. a kiss on a bike while we go pedaling ped ped pedaling

too on a bike on a bike on a bike up and down around the town and out among

the farms because you can't have gasoline you can have a boy in your

arms i'm happy i'm facing the chance of embracing the boy

Now, how are you going to get them in?

I'll send them an invitation.

Come on.

Who threw that plate? Yeah, who threw that plate?

Yeah, who?

Say, now listen. I'd take you mugs apart. Only you owe me $983.

We do?

Yeah, look.

Storage, $2 an hour, $420.

Parts ordered, $105.

Not ordered, $206.

And I got your signature right on it. Let's say that.

Hey, somebody forced my ex.

Listen, come here.

Okay. Now look, you look like a sporting man.

Well, cut your high card double or nothing.

Draw.

What have you got?

White bread.

Draw.

What have you got?

Rye toast.

Pumpernickel. Draw, partner.

Pumpernickel. With raisin.

With raisins? You mean that beats one pumpernickel?

Show business is where you walk around the stage in ostrich feathers and look

pretty. Get paid off every Saturday night. And this ain't it.

I think I'll go out with him.

Don't be a dope.

Just for the laughs.

I can see me

You've got that expression.

This is a lovely town by moonlight.

Get a good look at it. We ought to be out of here next week.

You know, Tommy Craig might not be in show business, but he's kind of nice.

I knew it, I knew it. That chemist has produced a reaction.

Explosion's the word.

It's dynamite. Yeah.

I bet children would grow up very healthy in this climate.

Sonny, are you kidding?

You're headed for a permanent dust cap and an apron detour baby. We're going to

Hollywood

Howdy, stranger.

What can I do for you? All right, Potter. Just hit town.

Looking for my pal, Deadfoot Pete.

Deadfoot struck it rich up in them hills.

Struck it rich, eh? Well, can't say that I've seen him. Well, he's a-coming this

way, hankering for one of them, uh, addy mobiles, just like that one.

Well, I'll keep my eye out for him. Maybe I can make a deal.

Never saw the likes of the critter. Just throws his dust away like water.

Hey, let's take it easy there. Much obliged, much obliged.

Keep a-looking for him.

Deadfoot pees at this away.

No, but there was another fella in here looking for him. Say, mighty beautiful

construction you have here.

I think I'll buy this hostess carriage.

I'm sorry, mister. I was saving that for Deadfoot.

Deadfoot? Why, that new good, ornery, suspicious critter, you can't sell him

nothing. Yeah, but I thought... No, I tell you, you can't sell him anything.

But here's what you could do. What?

You give him this here gas buggy, and he gets so...

Grateful? He showers you with dust.

Oh, I get it. If I give him the automobile, he'll just give me twice as

much dust as I'd ever dare to charge him for it. You catch on mighty quick,

Slater. Yes, sir, you certainly do.

Well, after you see him, tell him I gave my host a day off, and I'm going into

town to buy myself a bicycle.

shots of false supper.

What can I do for you, stranger?

No one calls Deadfoot Pete a stranger.

Mighty tired carrying this dust around.

Been waiting 30 years for a strike like this.

I am sure mighty glad to see you so prosperous.

Hey, you ought to take care of that dust. There's a lot of slickers in town.

Yeah, Deadfoot Pete ain't afraid of no man.

Deader and I have a speckly death. Ah, that's the spirit.

Hey, you didn't happen to come by here with the idea of buying an automobile.

Welcome you back as its most successful citizen.

How's that?

I mean, it is a token of my esteem. I'm going to give you that beautiful

automobile.

Well, now look here, partner.

You ain't pulled anything shady with strings attached.

Certainly not. There's the papers all made out.

You can drive that beautiful automobile out without any obligation whatsoever.

you can drive that automobile away without any obligation.

Well, partner, you've got a heart of gold.

Just for that, I'm going to give you a couple of bags of my dust.

Oh, I wouldn't do that. Why, go right ahead. Take it. Well, yes, but if you

insist.

Yes. Well?

He's talking about old Payne. What this town needs is somebody else to run for

sheriff. And if I'm elected sheriff, I once ran for sheriff.

Or was it from the sheriff?

Sheriff. Sheriff.

Come on.

Who is looking for a man who has a new and honest plan, who really put this

place right on its feet?

And after searching far and near, we found a man who knows no fear. He

answers to the name of Cactus Pete.

Cactus Pete for sheriff, vote for Cactus Pete for sheriff, vote for Cactus Pete

for sheriff, vote for Cactus Pete.

You'll see through my opponent if you spare a second glance.

He's robbed you right and left for years, and now I want a chance.

And then if you vote for me...

He's got a reputation and a name that's hard to beat. He cleaned the town of

Tombstone for half a bucket street.

I promise milk in every glass and dough will flow like water.

I'll pay you more for working less and make your hours shorter.

I promise sunny weather.

Stick to me and you will see that we'll be stuck together.

He's colossal. He's tremendous.

He's gigantic.

He's stupendous. In fact, I'm mediocre.

Hooray!

Hooray for what?

Well, hooray for the...

So this is the place you were raving about in those collect telegrams. This

is it, boss. Mercury, California.

Formerly Rustler's Ghost. This is it. This is it.

And you said a gambling joint would clean up in this jerkwater town.

That I did. That I did.

In which case, you were a subject for a low-class sanitarium.

Why, this town is spinach.

Men in overalls pitch pennies. They don't wager vast sums on my wheels of

fortune. Wait, boss.

Please to watch the pay window.

Eddie, I see the light.

I may say you're even more right than a boat race or my own personal racetrack.

I always did like to go fishing for suckers.

Where do we operate?

Right on Main Street. But, boss, it's so right you want to cry.

Macduff, first we go to the hotel and get located. And then we go down and

look over Eddie's little wonder spot.

Lay on.

Mr. Barton, we weren't born yesterday.

We've got this place and you want it.

Now, how much are you willing to pay for it?

Mercenary lady is not a pretty sight.

I offer 100 per week.

Ha, ha, ha.

Pardon my girlish laughter.

Now, look, Miss Tracy.

People like us shouldn't be robbing each other.

If you're clearing 25 bucks weekly in this sandwich hatchery, you're chiseling

on the meatballs.

Yeah, chiseling on the meatballs.

There's not another place around for miles that you could use for gambling.

And you can't build anything.

Priorities. I apologize for figuring you were stupid.

Now I make the grand gesture.

We hire your restaurant and personalities as comrades.

You'll run the restaurant, and I run the gambling.

150 bucks per week per girl.

Mr. Barton, as of this moment, we are ex-restaurant proprietors. No, I'm

sorry, but we can't do it. Thanks just the same, Mr. Barton. Do my ears suspect

correctly? When I think of what an outfit like yours would do to this town,

it frightens me.

Couldn't we be a little scared for that kind of dough? I'm afraid that's final.

So goodbye.

And take little Sir Echo with you.

Who, me?

Okay.

No hard feelings.

I'll be around.

The office stands.

Yeah, the office stands.

Let's finish up these account books. I'm tired.

Doesn't the heat from that halo dry out your hair?

Chalk it up to being around decent people.

As long as you don't get to know them personally, it's all right to take

suckers for a ride. But once you realize they're nice guys, all the dirty fun is

gone. Maybe I didn't get to know anyone around here so personally.

Hiya, Sonny, Madge.

How are you, Tommy?

Picked up a little gadget you might like.

It's exactly what I needed for whatever I needed it for. Would you mind sending

Honest Joe out of here so we can finish talking business?

Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to butt in. Oh, you didn't butt in. We were

finished. We weren't finished, but we are now.

How much in the treasury?

Now, wait a minute, Madge. This is a happily ever after for me. You're hooked

and I'm not.

I'm going to help Terry Barton gather some of that folding money. For a crook,

he's a very honest guy and I like him. And then I'm heading for Hollywood. But

listen, my half of the restaurant for your half of this room.

Madge, you're crazy.

Look, if it's anything I did.

Yeah, it was that silly grin on your map.

Sonny mistook it for romance.

So long, suckers.

Hey, what did I do?

You and your sweet talk. You got me stuck with dishrags when I could have

had Herman.

If you get to liking dishrags, give me a ring.

Tomorrow.

Hello. Have you learned to like dishrags yet?

They're not bad.

But plenty of salt.

May I sit down?

I'll sit with you.

We'll split a pressed duck and a bottle of champagne.

Think you better make it a hamburger and a schooner of stale beer.

You all alone?

Uh-huh.

Madge is working out at Terry Barton's new place.

Well, what about the three madmen?

They just took their salary out there to gamble.

Uh-uh. They haven't got a chance. Barton will clean them.

They'll come back without cuffs, pleats, or suits.

Just barrel.

Boss, this is very terrific.

We got the suckers started coming.

The old gent who built this house is way out in the desert.

Wouldn't he turn over in his grave if he could see it now?

Yeah, but it ain't perfect like that place in town.

The way them workers drive 10 miles to throw away their dough is indeed

beautiful.

What a location.

They must expect trade from the gophers. Only saps would go there.

Well, then let's go in.

Hey, how about this? This is a beautiful spot.

Check your hair, gentlemen.

This is beautiful.

Hiya, fellas.

Make yourselves right at home. I think I will.

Come down there.

Before fighting, have a good time. Okay, okay.

This is it, huh? Hey, I wonder where it is.

It's right here, fellas.

Pardon me.

No matter.

Where do you think you're going? They're friends of mine. I can't let them go in

that room. I'll take care of those monkeys.

Hey, Eddie.

Yeah, boss. Get in there. I'll talk to Jack.

Now, why would you want to clip three dishwashers?

When you work for me, you don't ask no questions.

Stick to your song numbers, kid. They're nice.

Eight to nine.

Shout an eight.

Twenty-five on the red.

Twenty-five on the red. Two to five.

One to nine.

Seven he missed.

What about some action, Ellis?

Get yourself some chips and clean out the house.

Oh, we will. We'll get to it.

Find out what... Say, let me take a look at those dice, will you, buddy?

Oh, these are... These are all right.

Hello.

Wire broke off, you know.

Present.

Well, let's see.

Give me a $5 stack, will you, please?

What is this? One chip for $5?

They must think we're fish. What kind of a game is this?

Fish and chips.

Wait a minute.

Let it all go. The whole thing? The whole thing.

Silly, let it all go.

Let's go.

Seven, the winner.

Seven, the winner?

Wonderful. This is good.

What do you say?

Seven again, the winner.

Let it all go.

Seven. Winner.

16.

16 is silly. Don't let the 16 go. Let it go. Yeah, let it all go. It's the only

time. Let it all go. Let it go.

Let it go.

What did you say?

Seven!

People, something's going wrong. They're throwing nothing but sevens.

Shouldn't we knock them over the head or something?

How much have they won up to now?

Anyway, 600 bucks.

Okay, that's enough. Get them out.

You mean you're letting them walk out winners?

Look, according to marriage, when they get that dough, they'll blow town.

I couldn't buy the joint here.

I'll get it this way.

What is it? Seven! Seven it is! Seven it is! Seven it is! Seven it is! Seven it

is! Seven it is! Seven it is!

Seven it is!

Seven it is! Seven it is! Seven it is! Seven it is!

Seven it is! Seven it is! Seven it is!

Seven it is!

Seven it is!

Hey, wait a minute. It can't be.

It can't be true. I make sevens all the time.

Excuse me, buddy, will you? Excuse me. Catch me in, will you?

Have a good time, boys?

I had a wonderful time until I threw those two aces. I was rolling sevens all

night long. One of those things, you know. Take my advice. No play here,

buddy. Strictly crooked.

Will you okay this check, Mr. Barton? Sure. Mr. Barton?

Barton? No, he owns the place. He knows it's crooked.

Well, how do you like that? Keep your joints.

Oh, good man.

Mary Madcap's car.

Hey, Harry, how's the plate? Is it okay? Is it okay?

People like it, Harry?

Like it, like it. Well, the joint is fixed. It's a jib joint.

Two to one, you don't even get your hat back.

Uncle Whitney, I tell you, stay out of there. Don't take your money away from

me. Right.

Believe me, Sonny, it's getting serious.

Even the plant manager called me in today.

Boys are staying out at Barton's place all night, borrowing from each other,

losing their money, picking fights.

Pardon me, Tommy.

Mind if I put this on the cuff, Sonny?

Terry Barton's place?

Yeah, I had a little run of bad luck last night.

It's okay.

Thanks a lot.

I'm getting a taste of it here, too.

No, it's tearing the whole town apart.

The boys don't stand a chance out there, but they keep on gambling anyway.

What we've got to do is find a bigger attraction.

If there is such a thing.

Get this crate of lettuce, will you? Did we take that Barton guy over? Now I can

buy the Boy Scout knife.

Off to Hollywood.

I can see beautiful girls. Where?

Boys, listen.

Terry Barton has been ruining this town, and we've got to run him out of

business.

But you don't understand.

I've got to borrow that money you just won.

Money? You mean you want to... Oh, the money. Well, honey, you can have

anything we got.

There goes my mental date on Hollywood and Vine.

But, Al, you can keep that date.

We're going to bring some Hollywood glamour girls out here. If you boys like

girls better than gambling, so will the others.

Sure, this is practically an all-male town. You can't put your arms around a

roulette wheel.

I know, but... Hey, Sonny, get me a blonde. Get me a redhead. Just get me a

girl. Long distance.

Beautiful showgirls.

I finally get them factory turkeys tonight, that 10-mile trip. Now she

brings in a bunch of Hollywood beauties.

The one thing that tops gambling, dolls.

Oh, you got her handed that, sonny.

She's smart.

Too smart for her own good.

What are we going to do, boss?

We will do as follows.

First, we'll give those three mugs of hers a going over just to keep in

practice.

Also, we will be present at her opening night just to wish her luck.

You and me and the toughest gorillas we can import.

Boss, may I personally attempt triple mayhem?

Yeah.

Now, you know Red's in Denver? Yeah.

You know where the rest of the boys are? Yeah, yeah.

Get on that phone. Okay, boss.

Madge! Gee, I'm glad to see you. Skip the greeting cards. I'm in a hurry.

Okay, what's on your mind?

I went along with Terry Barton as long as he stuck to business, but now that

he's figuring on the rough stuff, that counts me out.

What kind of rough stuff?

He's sore because Sonny's bringing in that bevy of females, so opening night

he's going to show up with his plug uglies and wreck the joint.

Oh.

So Barton wants to play rough, huh?

Take my advice, Tommy, and ask her to call the whole thing off. You can't go

up against a guy like that.

I think we can take care of them all right.

Okay. The rest is up to you.

I'm on my way. Hey, wait a minute.

You and Sonny were a great team.

Now that you found out what kind of a guy Barton is, why don't you get

together again?

Do you think she would?

Oh, I know she would.

I'll be right with you.

horseshoes my fingers across two force blues away that old lady luck and i

Looks good.

It is good.

Did you see that army of occupation that just moved in?

Yeah, I saw them. Looks like trouble.

Not a thing to worry about. Look, Tommy, you don't understand guys like that.

I've seen them cripple people. Why, those gorillas will tear these walls

down. I think we'll make those gorillas, as you call them, look like monkeys. Oh,

please, Tommy, let's get out of here. If you have any blood to spare, don't waste

it. Give it to the Red Cross.

I won't even have to lift a finger. The girls will take care of those guys.

The girls? I wanted you to be careful, but isn't that overdoing it?

Take a look at this.

What is it?

I whipped it up in my lab. It's the world's original giggle water. And when

those guys get a whiff of this stuff, the only thing that'll be busted around

here will be their ribs from laughing.

Oh, see, I told you, besides being cute, he had brains.

Could be.

Sonny, at the end of this dance, you bring the girls over here and have them

dip their handkerchiefs in this bowl. But be sure and tell them to keep it

away from their noses, or they'll get the giggles.

You've got to have personality.

It's the smile on your face, the laugh in your eye.

You've got to have personality.

It's your kisser that gets you by.

Everyone is your friend deep down underneath.

Use your pan, use your mug, smile and give them the tea.

And then you will agree that it's personality.

It might be this, it might be that, the way you walk or wear your hat or maybe

some unreasonable facsimile.

Mahatma's got it in his sheet, and there are folks who use their feet with loads

and loads and loads of personality, like this.

I want to be alone.

May I kiss your lily white hand?

You may kiss my white hand. Yes.

My weft hand and my wooby red whips. You are so beautiful.

I lay my heart at your feet, my soul at your feet, my life at your feet.

What have my feet got that I haven't got?

That's personality.

The way you talk or comb your hair, the way you dance, the clothes you wear, the

dimples or the water on your knee.

The way you sit, the way you stand, or else the way you use your hand to lead a

band. It's really personality.

Like this.

First the maestro combs his hair with a leg beater.

Then very gracefully he raises his hands and is ready for the downbeat.

Stop the music. You'll have to take out the tubers. Yeah, but Maestro, I like

tubers. I know, but if you can't get ties, you don't need tubers.

That's personality.

You think we notice legs and hips, eyes and nose, ruby lips on sweater girls?

You're doggone right we do.

Might even be the way you grin, your figure or the shape it's in. You'll find

it in most any little ingenue, like this.

They smell so pretty.

Oh, I feel so gay and poetic.

Rub-a-dub-a-dub, three men in a tub.

Unsanitary, don't you think?

You gotta have personality.

It's the way that you play that gives you away.

For all you know, it might even be the tilt of your new toupee.

Here is something to bet on, straight place and show. If you're rich or you're

poor, say it's great to have dough.

So take off!

and join the show.

Those guys have ruined everything.

Let's take them apart.

I ought to kill you.

I ought to cook you up in little pieces and... And then stab

on the little faces.

Nice humor.
