00:00:36And then bring the girl to me.
00:00:40Well?
00:00:41I tell you to your face, Blackbeard Morgan, I'll have my due.
00:00:45The woman is mine and I'll have her.
00:00:48Yes, and you'll have four fathom of rope for your neck
00:00:52and a yard arm for your filthy carcass.
00:00:55Well, for those words, Blackbeard Morgan...
00:01:01Why, leave a dead man's curse on your foul-headed woman and take him away.
00:01:08Now bring in the woman.
00:01:23You belong to Blackbeard Morgan now.
00:01:30What kind of a girl is this?
00:01:36Listen, and I'll tell you.
00:01:46How it's that a boat can hold a deep, bell-bound.
00:01:51You're old!
00:01:53Every book in here, it's in, is hell-bound.
00:01:56You're old!
00:01:59You're old!
00:02:12You're my captain, dear.
00:02:16Look at what you did.
00:02:20I had a heart here, you're going away, what can I say?
00:02:25It's nice to be held at each time, you're close to me
00:02:29You see, I want to see
00:02:34The way you see what is inside, you know, you're my champion king
00:03:00It's nice to be held at each other
00:03:01I'm going to speak to you
00:03:03You're my champion
00:03:05It's very beautiful
00:03:06I'm going to speak to you
00:03:08You're my champion
00:03:10I'm going to speak to you
00:03:17I'm going to speak to you
00:03:24The End
00:04:01Fred, get some fresh coffee here for Mr. Solomon
00:04:04Joe, Joe, fresh water in the glass is here
00:04:30All I have in me, love has come to me
00:04:37I had a heart and you just throw it away
00:04:41What did I say?
00:04:42It's time to be all fresh, it's time to go to me
00:04:48Me, I'm all at me
00:04:51The way you feel a different side of it
00:04:55You're my best and sweet
00:05:21I'm all at me
00:05:36Hello, Nicky
00:05:37Tickle-fake to see you
00:05:40Say, I've been so busy I didn't spot you before
00:05:42How are you, Jim?
00:05:44Fine
00:05:44I want you to do me a little favor
00:05:45Yeah?
00:05:46In just a few minutes, we're going to have our famous pageant of the knees
00:05:51Well, that's very interesting, Jim
00:05:52But what's it all about?
00:05:54Well, a leg contest
00:05:55And we want you to be the judge
00:05:56Ah, go on
00:05:58I don't know anything about legs
00:05:59Oh, how could little Nicky know anything about legs?
00:06:05Jim is so innocent
00:06:07Well, here's your chance to get some first-hand information
00:06:10I'm telling you, Jim
00:06:11I'm no authority
00:06:12But if it'll help you out
00:06:13Why, go ahead
00:06:14Thanks
00:06:29Thanks
00:06:30Oh, Jack
00:06:30It was wonderful of you to bring me to a place like this
00:06:33We're going to have a glorious time
00:06:36Are we?
00:06:37With what?
00:06:39Why, with everything
00:06:40Guinea hen
00:06:41It's very fine tonight, sir
00:06:44Yeah?
00:06:45How's your buttermilk?
00:06:49Buttermilk, sir?
00:06:51Don't you dare order buttermilk
00:06:52You know I hate it
00:06:54Uh, the lady doesn't want any buttermilk
00:06:56See if you can find something you like better
00:06:58In the buttermilk laborhood
00:07:02Here, take that away
00:07:03I didn't order any water
00:07:10What's the matter with you, Jack?
00:07:12Come on, we're getting out of here
00:07:13I'm not going to scatter my money around to these pirates
00:07:15But we just came in
00:07:17Which was our big mistake
00:07:18I've only got five bucks with me
00:07:20And that's just the rent and a couple of spoons in this place
00:07:23I can see that I'm out for a big, wild evening
00:07:27Never mind
00:07:27Now, I know a nice little place down the street
00:07:29With entertainment every bit as good as this
00:07:31But it can't be
00:07:32I'm telling you
00:07:33They get this review on the radio
00:07:34And plenty loud, too
00:07:37Come on, let's go
00:07:37Oh
00:07:46Quiet, please
00:07:47Quiet, please
00:07:48Quiet
00:07:50And now, ladies and gentlemen
00:07:52Comes the hot spot of the evening
00:07:54The beautiful pageant of the knees
00:07:56The prettiest pair of legs
00:07:58Wins the silver cup
00:07:59And the title
00:08:01Of queen of the pirate's den
00:08:02All the ladies need to do
00:08:04Is to step up
00:08:06And step
00:08:14And as an added attraction
00:08:15We have as the judge of this contest
00:08:17None other than
00:08:19Mr. Nicky Solomon
00:08:25Step up, ladies
00:08:26Step up
00:08:27All right, boys
00:08:28Lay down the curtain
00:08:29All right, ladies
00:08:30Step right up this way
00:08:31Yes, go right up on the stage
00:08:32Yes
00:08:38Jack, I'm going to step up
00:08:40You're going to do what?
00:08:41I'm going into that contest
00:08:42You're not going to show your legs
00:08:44To this whole crowd
00:08:45I show them to bigger crowds
00:08:47Every time I get on a bus
00:08:48But listen
00:08:50Oh, I haven't seen you in weeks
00:08:51Where do I go?
00:08:53Why, you go right up this way
00:08:55Yes
00:08:57Oh, yes
00:08:58I knew you
00:08:59Yes
00:09:00My mother
00:09:00I haven't seen you in weeks
00:09:09All right, ladies
00:09:11Strike up the band
00:09:12And let the arches fall where they may
00:09:15Now, girls
00:09:16All you've got to do
00:09:17Is march around
00:09:18All right, ladies
00:10:00Not bad, eh, Nicky?
00:10:02Well, there's one there that isn't bad at all.
00:10:05Which one?
00:10:15There she is.
00:10:16Now, wait a minute, Jim.
00:10:18Right there, in the center.
00:10:19All right, hold the music.
00:10:24Come on, Nicky.
00:10:25Do be honest.
00:10:27Me?
00:10:27You.
00:10:30Let's go.
00:10:36All right, Nicky.
00:10:37Decorate the winner.
00:10:43Hello for gaitin', boys.
00:10:53What is your name?
00:10:55Sheba Miller.
00:10:57Congratulations.
00:10:58Oh, thank you.
00:11:03Friends, I take great pleasure in announcing the winner is Miss Sheba Miller.
00:11:13The title queen is very appropriate to a lady named Sheba.
00:11:20With this award, you elected queen of the Pirate's Den.
00:11:33Your majesty will have to say a few words.
00:11:36Oh, I couldn't make a speech.
00:11:39No.
00:11:40What can you do?
00:11:41Well, I...
00:11:42I sing a little.
00:11:45Do they know you learn about love every day?
00:11:48Well, they ought to.
00:11:49They only work here nights.
00:11:52All right, Dave.
00:11:53Dance already.
00:11:53All right, Dave.
00:12:22Love is something that friends
00:12:27Yet no one figured out
00:12:30Just what it's all about
00:12:34Love is always a puzzle
00:12:38Never knew when you're old
00:12:41You never seem to know it
00:12:46After all you go through
00:12:51It's a funny thing that just comes along
00:12:55Sometimes it's right, sometimes it's wrong
00:13:00You learn about love every day
00:13:08Maybe it's a thrill for only a while
00:13:12Maybe a tear, maybe a smile
00:13:16You learn about love every day
00:13:23Sometimes your heart might be glad
00:13:27Then your heart might be sad
00:13:31Oh, it's all in the game
00:13:35It's all that time
00:13:40Maybe you can feel, know it'll be true
00:13:44Maybe he will, what can you do
00:13:48You learn about love every day
00:14:11Come on, we gotta get out of here
00:14:12Oh no, you're guests to the house for the evening
00:14:15Does that mean that everything is, uh...
00:14:17Free, you can read that
00:14:19Come, I'll find you a table
00:14:25She doesn't seem to be getting on so well with a boyfriend
00:14:28Do you know her?
00:14:29She lives near me in Fordham
00:14:31Yes?
00:14:33How does she rate?
00:14:34What do you mean?
00:14:36You know
00:14:36Yes, no, or maybe
00:14:41No
00:14:42No
00:14:43No
00:14:45Maybe
00:14:47See, I don't like this place yet
00:14:50Everybody's staring at us
00:14:52Nobody's paying any attention to you
00:14:54It's me they're looking at
00:14:56Well, anyway, I don't feel comfortable here, Sheba
00:14:58What would make you feel comfortable?
00:15:01Your slippers?
00:15:02I'm sorry, honey
00:15:03But I can't get over the shock I got
00:15:05When I looked at the price list
00:15:06Couldn't we go someplace else?
00:15:08Like the movies?
00:15:10All right
00:15:10We'll go someplace else
00:15:12We'll go home
00:15:13Oh, now, Sheba
00:15:14I said home
00:15:18Next time, take me to the zoo
00:15:20Where you'll be among friends
00:15:22Sheba, please
00:15:35Do you want me to give you a knockdown to this one?
00:15:36No, thanks

00:21:57What about Jack?
00:22:00He told me he was going to ask you to marry him.
00:22:05Oh, he did, did he?
00:22:08Fixed it up with Pa beforehand.
00:22:12Smart boy, but not smart enough.
00:22:15Now, now, I told him I thought he had a very good chance with you.
00:22:21I just love the way people make up my mind for me around here.
00:22:25But you care for him, don't you?
00:22:30Well, Jack's all right, but he's not my idea of a big, passionate moment.
00:22:37That's so.
00:22:38Well, he's a fine, steady boy.
00:22:41And he's getting a raise.
00:23:00Off to work.
00:23:08International Association of Steam Shovel and Dredgemen.
00:23:11Just a minute.
00:23:14Hello, Maud.
00:23:16Hi, Sheba.
00:23:17Oh, Maud, I saw the most gorgeous fellow last night.
00:23:21Wrong number, I'm sorry.
00:23:24I've seen loads of fellows.
00:23:25My eyesight's very good.
00:23:27Yes, but he's different.
00:23:30How different?
00:23:33Well, I just can't describe him.
00:23:36Well, I can.
00:23:37Well-closed.
00:23:39Fit him like powder fits your face.
00:23:41The edge of a silk handkerchief sticking out of his pocket on the port side.
00:23:45A high-class do-go job on the shoes.
00:23:48Why, do you know him?
00:23:49Whole flocks of him.
00:23:53International Association of Steam Shovel and Dredgemen.
00:23:55Just a minute.
00:23:58When he walks into a restaurant, seven waiters make a rush for him.
00:24:02Yes, yes.
00:24:03That's the kind.
00:24:04Plenty of jewelry.
00:24:06A pearl stick pin in the tie.
00:24:07And a piece of blue lights on each hand.
00:24:10But what are you talking about?
00:24:11No, I'm wrong there.
00:24:13He wouldn't go for jewelry.
00:24:15He's scared at the sight of wedding rings.
00:24:18He's not that kind at all.
00:24:20Why, he's just, just swell.
00:24:24I hope so, dearie.
00:24:27International Association of Steam Shovel and Dredgemen.
00:24:30Which one, Otto or Oscar?
00:24:33He's out playing golf.
00:24:35Where'd you meet him?
00:24:37I haven't met him yet.
00:24:39Something tells me you will.
00:24:42Oh, do you think so?
00:24:44Has he tried to meet you?
00:24:47Well, I think he'd like to.
00:24:50Oh, you do.
00:24:53Tell me, little Red Riding Hood, what do you think he wants?
00:24:56Want?
00:24:57Why, he doesn't want anything.
00:24:59Sure he does.
00:25:00They all do.
00:25:01Find out what it is, and then be sure and leave it home.
00:25:07She'll be right in, Mr. Lathro.
00:25:09The boss wants you.
00:25:10Who?
00:25:11Listen.
00:25:12There's a swell picture at the forum tonight.
00:25:14Al Jolson.
00:25:15All talking, all singing, all weeping.
00:25:17I'll blow you.
00:25:18I should say so.
00:25:20I'm broke.
00:25:21Meet you at the theater.
00:25:22K.O., honey.

00:26:02Oh, Jack.
00:26:05Come over here.
00:26:13Gee, you look sweet, Sheba.
00:26:16You got a date?
00:26:18Yep.
00:26:19I'm going to see Al Jolson.
00:26:21You haven't got a date with him, have you?
00:26:24Don't be an eggnog.
00:26:26I'm going to the movies with Mort.
00:26:29Uh, a bus just left.
00:26:31In the meantime, come over and have a drink.
00:26:39What, take long?
00:26:41You've got all kinds of time.
00:26:43I'll miss Mort if I don't catch the next bus.
00:26:46I'm off tomorrow night, Sheba.
00:26:48Are you doing anything?
00:26:50Maybe I am, and maybe I'm not.
00:26:52Why?
00:26:53I thought we could go places.
00:26:55I can't tell now.
00:26:57Better call me up tomorrow.
00:26:59I'll do that anyway.
00:27:02There.

00:27:24You won't put it.
00:27:25I can just put theенд!
00:27:26Never too long.
00:27:29Close it.
00:27:31I wish I did.
00:27:53Oh
00:28:03Hello, little girl.
00:28:05You seem to be in trouble.
00:28:07Can I help?
00:28:09Not unless you're a bus driver.
00:28:12Well, I'm driving this bus.
00:28:15To go past the Fordham Theatre?
00:28:17Oh, yes, Miss. That's my regular route.
00:28:19I'm due there every night at 7.30.
00:28:22But pay as you enter.
00:28:37Good night!
00:28:39I'm coming.
00:29:06What's the matter?
00:29:07Out of gas already?
00:29:10Well, you see, as a matter of fact, I've forgotten which way you said you were going.
00:29:15There are two roads, you see.
00:29:17I thought you said your route takes you past the Fordham Theater.
00:29:20My route changes.
00:29:22It leads me wherever there's beauty and romance.
00:29:40This isn't getting us to the Fordham Theater.
00:29:42Oh, that's right.
00:29:43You're in a hurry, aren't you?
00:29:45Heavy date?
00:29:46No.
00:29:47Girlfriend.
00:29:48I can't believe it.
00:29:50Why not?
00:29:51Any girl as attractive as you can't have much time to waste on girlfriends.
00:29:55Please, you're killing me.
00:29:59Say, Mulligan.
00:30:09Got a match?
00:30:10Sure.
00:30:18Thanks.
00:30:20Anything wrong?
00:30:22No, Nicky.
00:30:23Not lately.
00:30:30Nice evening.
00:30:31Yes.
00:30:32Yes, it's nicer down a couple of blocks.
00:30:35Yeah.
00:30:36Good night, Mulligan.
00:30:38You'll be late for inspection.
00:30:41Everybody knows you, don't they, Mrs. Solomon?
00:30:44Mm-hmm.
00:30:45Everyone except you.
00:30:47But we'll soon fix that, Sheba.
00:30:50Sorry, good-looking.
00:30:51I must meet my girlfriend.
00:30:53I'm late now.
00:30:54Oh, please.
00:30:55Come on and have dinner with me, will you?
00:30:58But think of poor little Maud waiting all alone.
00:31:01Besides, I'm not hungry.
00:31:03But think of poor little me having dinner all alone.
00:31:07Besides, when you get a whiff of that spaghetti,
00:31:09at Joe's place, you'll be hungry.
00:31:12I always did go for spaghetti.
00:31:15I can phone her from there.
00:31:17Fine.
00:31:19Here's your dime, Beck.
00:31:21Now you can phone her twice.
00:31:23Ha-ha.
00:31:41Well, babe, how about another half mile of spaghetti, huh?
00:31:45Not even another yacht.
00:31:47It's a grand spaghetti, though.
00:31:50And what a cute place.
00:31:52Oh, just a joint.
00:31:54But Joe, the proprietor here, is a friend of mine.
00:31:57From the old days.
00:31:58So I drop around occasionally to tone the place up a bit.
00:32:03You see, it helps him to have me seen here.
00:32:06I like people that stick by their friends, Mr. Solomon.
00:32:10The, um, the name is Nicky.
00:32:13That seems me, Nicky.
00:32:16Let's hop downtown and get a load of George White scandals.
00:32:20The scandal?
00:32:21Sure.
00:32:22Unless you've already seen it this year.
00:32:25I haven't seen it any year.
00:32:27It's terribly expensive.
00:32:29Oh, only 10 bucks a seat.
00:32:31Say, who do you think you're out with?
00:32:33A soda jerker?
00:32:40Chicks.
00:32:47Pencil.
00:33:02Hey, boss.
00:33:03Call on Nicky.
00:33:04Vole from Mike was a check.
00:33:06No.
00:33:07No, no, no, no.
00:33:08No, no, no.
00:33:08Non ci niente da faa.
00:33:15Would you, uh, pardon me a minute, babe?
00:33:18Joe wants to speak to me.
00:33:20Oh, sure.
00:33:21Go ahead.
00:33:28What's the matter with you, Nicky?
00:33:30Broke again, eh?
00:33:31Who, me?
00:33:33Why?
00:33:33Don't I always sign checks in here?
00:33:35Yeah.
00:33:36I got you on the cuff for over 200 bucks an hour.
00:33:39Well, I'll tell you, Joe.
00:33:40When it gets big enough for you to worry about,
00:33:43I'll come in and do something about it.
00:33:44Say, it's big enough now.
00:33:46Do something about it.
00:33:47I know a place that'll be tickled to death
00:33:48to have me on the cuff for a couple of grand.
00:33:51Well, why don't you eat there?
00:33:52Oh, Joe, my dear old fellow, you know,
00:33:54if I'd known you were going to take it this way,
00:33:57I'd have brought in my bankroll
00:33:58and cleaned up your cuff for you.
00:34:00Say, quit stalling, will you?
00:34:01Just pay this.
00:34:03Pay that?
00:34:03Yeah.
00:34:05Why, sure.
00:34:10Joe, you know, that's the funniest thing.
00:34:12Not even three bucks, eh?
00:34:15Say, listen, Nicky, you better go back to work.
00:34:18You left some IOUs in the back room yesterday.
00:34:20Ah, don't worry about me, Joe.
00:34:22I make plenty of dough.
00:34:23Yeah, when you work.
00:34:26You're a clever kid in your line, Nicky,
00:34:28but, uh, literally you got scores on the brain.
00:34:32That reminds me, Joe.
00:34:34I promised to take that young lady to the scandals tonight.
00:34:37Have, uh, have you got 50 bucks on you?
00:34:40Sure.
00:34:41I got a lot of 50 bucks,
00:34:43but it's not gonna do you any good.
00:34:45Oh, now, Joe, don't act this way.
00:34:47Be human, will ya?
00:34:49In a couple of nights,
00:34:50I'm going to move in on some easy dough.
00:34:54You sure of that?
00:34:56It's a pushover.
00:34:57But you've got to see me through till then, you know.
00:35:04And, uh, what about the 50?
00:35:08Say, listen, I'm gonna run a restaurant here, not a bank.
00:35:10All right, all right.
00:35:11I'm not gonna argue with you, Joe.
00:35:14Gosh, I, I thought we were pals.
00:35:17Sure, we pals.
00:35:19But when do you begin working at it?
00:35:22I told you that in a couple of nights
00:35:25I was going to move in on some easy dough.
00:35:30Then you pay the 50 bucks too?
00:35:32Sure.
00:35:44May as well make that 100, Joe.
00:35:46Hmm?
00:35:56I'm sorry I asked you for the three bucks.
00:35:59Thanks, Joe.
00:36:05Sorry to have kept you waiting, Shiva.
00:36:07Yes, but why were you so long?
00:36:09Well, you see, Joe wanted to touch me for a little money.
00:36:13Naturally, he got embarrassed and stammered
00:36:15all over the place getting to the point.
00:36:17Oh.
00:36:18Yes, business hasn't been so good here lately.
00:36:21So I lent him a couple of hundred bucks
00:36:23to pay off some of the waiters.
00:36:25A couple hundred dollars?
00:36:26Yes, yes, that was all he asked for.
00:36:30Shall we be going?
00:36:32All right.
00:36:38Oh, pardon me.
00:36:40Tony.
00:36:47Thank you very much.
00:36:49Don't mention it.
00:37:07Mrs. Lippincott.
00:37:09Come here.
00:37:11Hmm?
00:37:12Scandal I got for you about that Shiva.
00:37:15Some more, yes?
00:37:17She's catching our new boyfriend.
00:37:20Every night she's stepping out
00:37:22till one, two, three and a quarter o'clock in the morning.
00:37:25Is this possible?
00:37:27Possibility.
00:37:28And is her papa sick from worry?
00:37:31Hmm?
00:37:32Every night she's sitting up waiting,
00:37:35she should sneak in.
00:37:37It's a disgrace from the neighbors.
00:37:40Sure.
00:37:42Sitting with the papa is the jet
00:37:44that Cheebel Air was engaged to.
00:37:47She's giving the jet the air.
00:37:51Give it a look.
00:37:59No use looking at the clock, Pa.
00:38:01I'll be getting along anyway.
00:38:03But it's after midnight.
00:38:05Midnight doesn't mean anything to Sheba
00:38:07since she started skating around with this new Sheik.
00:38:09You ought to do something about it, Jack.
00:38:13I know it, but what?
00:38:15Well, you ought to talk to her.
00:38:18That's a hot one.
00:38:19Talk to her?
00:38:20You find her and I'll talk to her.
00:38:23What kind of a fellow is he, Jack?
00:38:25Oh, I don't know.
00:38:26I'm not sure who he is.
00:38:27I saw him across the street,
00:38:29but I only know him by his flashy car
00:38:31and a trick horn that goes da-da, da-da.
00:38:35Funny how nobody can even see him except Sheba.
00:38:38And I'll say it is.
00:38:51Goodnight, dear.
00:38:51Goodnight, Nicky.
00:39:13Is this our business?
00:39:15I'm telling you.
00:39:19Well, slip tight.
00:39:22I'll see you further.
00:39:25You think not?
00:39:30Well, goodnight, Pa.
00:39:36Oh, hello.
00:39:38You here again?
00:39:39Yeah.
00:39:40I just dropped up to keep your father company for a while.
00:39:43Thought he was neglected, I suppose.
00:39:45Big hearted of you.
00:39:46Have a good time, Sheba.
00:39:48Wonderful.
00:39:49Well, maybe you'd like to have a little chat with Jack
00:39:51as long as he's here.
00:39:53Goodnight, honey.
00:39:54See you in the morning, Jack.
00:39:58Well, how was the show?
00:40:00We didn't go.
00:40:01Didn't go?
00:40:03Listen, Sheba, you shouldn't be out all night like this.
00:40:05You needn't worry about me.
00:40:07I can take care of myself.
00:40:09Are you sure you can?
00:40:11Just what do you know about this egg
00:40:12you've been rushing around with?
00:40:14Say, did you ever try minding your own business?
00:40:17And I know you were just lecturing me
00:40:19because Pa told you to.
00:40:20Don't talk to me like that, Sheba.
00:40:23Well, I didn't mean to hurt you, Jack,
00:40:25but I can't have you interfering with my affairs.
00:40:28Listen, Sheba, I got that raised.
00:40:31Oh, yes?
00:40:32I'm glad.
00:40:33You deserved it.
00:40:34Well, you know, you said if I got it,
00:40:36we'd, we'd discuss things about us getting married.
00:40:41Married?
00:40:43On $35 a week?
00:40:45I've heard a lot of jokes tonight,
00:40:47but that's the best yet.
00:40:51Oh, don't get sore, Jack,
00:40:54but I just had a laugh at the idea of a girl like me
00:40:57getting married on $35 a week.
00:41:00It looked good to you once.
00:41:02Maybe it did.
00:41:03But Sheba's getting to be a bigly girl now.
00:41:06Yeah, ever since she met that ape
00:41:08with the flashy car and the clothes that fit him all over.
00:41:11You're just jealous of me, that's all.
00:41:13And you're trying to take it out on me by abusing my friends.
00:41:16I know what I'm talking about.
00:41:17I know these birds and I know what they're after.
00:41:19They're just playing around with every girl like you they can get.
00:41:22Oh, I'm too tired to argue.
00:41:24Good night.
00:41:25Glad to have met you socially.
00:41:43Sheba, where's Jack?
00:41:44How should I know?
00:41:45He went home, I hope.
00:41:49You haven't sent him away.
00:41:51Oh, he'll be back.
00:41:53But he needn't if he thinks he's going to interfere with my affairs.
00:42:02Sheba, dear.
00:42:04You know the only thing Jack and I are interested in
00:42:07is my little girl's happiness.
00:42:09Do you believe that?
00:42:13You know I believe it.
00:42:15Then let me tell you.
00:42:17If this other fellow was any good,
00:42:19he'd come up here and meet me.
00:42:28I know what's wrong.
00:42:31You're ashamed of your old dad.
00:42:34Oh.
00:42:38I'll show you I'm not.
00:42:39You'll meet him the very next time I go out with him.
00:42:42Oh, that's my little girl.
00:42:57Hello, Sheba.
00:43:00Hello, Mrs. Bannerback.
00:43:02How's everything?
00:43:03By me, it's fine.
00:43:05Say, Sheba, tell me,
00:43:06is it a fact that you got yourself engaged?
00:43:10Why, yes.
00:43:11Just today.
00:43:12And Dad doesn't even know a thing about it yet.
00:43:15Then it's that rich man that you go with, huh?
00:43:18With diamonds,
00:43:20with automobiles,
00:43:21with fancy horses,
00:43:23with boats from Yara.
00:43:25Yes.
00:43:26He's very rich.
00:43:27You want to see my ring?
00:43:32There is it.
00:43:33Can't you see it from there?
00:43:35Stay, Dominic.
00:43:46Bill,
00:43:47it looks like by me,
00:43:49it's got a little chip in it.
00:43:51Quit your kiddin'.
00:43:53Maybe you better come around the stairs
00:43:55and I'll see it better.
00:43:56I'd love to,
00:43:57but I haven't time.
00:43:59We're going stepping tonight.
00:44:01Thanks, doing.
00:44:02I'm late now.
00:44:04Goodbye.
00:44:05Goodbye.
00:44:06I'll see you fine there.
00:44:20Well,
00:44:22off duty and all dressed up.
00:44:25Yeah.
00:44:27And no place to go.
00:44:29What do you mean?
00:44:31You've always had a place to go.
00:44:34Why don't you call up Sheba?
00:44:39After the way she put me on the pan last night,
00:44:42excuse me.
00:44:43Don't be silly.
00:44:45A little spat means nothing.
00:44:48You and Sheba have had lots of them.
00:44:50It's blown over by this time.
00:44:53Not this one.
00:44:54Of course it has.
00:44:56Don't you know a girl is always easy to get along with right after a quarrel?
00:45:02Here's a nickel.
00:45:03Go and phone.
00:45:05I got plenty of nickels.
00:45:06Then use one.
00:45:08Don't weaken.
00:45:10Take a tip from me.
00:45:13I'll try it.
00:45:15Once.
00:45:15I'll see you.
00:45:16I'll see you.
00:45:55Optimus Koronis, top shelf.
00:46:18Will you keep on ringing Fordham 6-8-6-8?
00:46:20There must be somebody there.
00:46:25Peter.
00:46:42Good evening, sir.
00:46:43Got any Optimus Koronis?
00:46:45Optimus Koronis?
00:46:46Yes.
00:46:46I don't believe I have a box.
00:46:49I think I see some up there on the top shelf.
00:46:52That's right.
00:46:53I thought there should be one.
00:46:56Now keep those hands right where they are.
00:46:58What?
00:46:59What's the matter, hard of hearing?
00:47:00Keep them up.
00:47:18Pa!
00:47:19Pa!
00:47:20Please, Pa, talk to me.
00:47:22Pa!
00:47:31Pa!
00:47:48Ah, babe.
00:47:49Right on the dot.
00:47:51Right on the dot of my eye.
00:47:53You stood me up for half an hour.
00:47:54Oh, I'm sorry, Sheba, but you see business interferes.
00:47:58Business is always interfering.
00:48:00You don't think any more of me than to keep me waiting on Street Corner.
00:48:03But it's all for you, darling, don't you see?
00:48:06Just to make you happy.
00:48:08Can't you do your work in the daytime when I'm doing mine?
00:48:12Well, not always, sweetheart.
00:48:15Oh, but why spoil a lovely evening talking shop, huh?
00:48:18I just turned a little deal to a very nice profit.
00:48:22So get in, Sheba.
00:48:24Come on.
00:48:25And let's go spending.
00:48:29And the next stop is the Pirate's Den.
00:48:32No.
00:48:33What?
00:48:34No Pirate's Den?
00:48:35Later.
00:48:36First, we're going to see Dad.
00:48:38Oh, well, what about?
00:48:40You've been promising all along that you were going to meet him.
00:48:43Yeah.
00:48:44And now that we're engaged, you've got to do it.
00:48:46Well, I know, but there's no particular rush, is there, Sheba?
00:48:49We've got a big night ahead of us, you know, and we'd better be stepping.
00:48:53Nicky.
00:48:53Hmm?
00:48:54You said you loved me, didn't you?
00:48:56And I meant it.
00:48:58And we're going to be married, aren't we?
00:49:00That's on the program.
00:49:01Then before we do anything else, I want Dad to know it.
00:49:05And I want you to tell him.
00:49:07Is, uh, is that final?
00:49:08That's final, Nicky.
00:49:11All right.
00:49:12So be it.
00:49:13Lead on.
00:49:14Not here.
00:49:15He's at the store.
00:49:17The store?
00:49:18Well, where's that?
00:49:20I'll show you.
00:49:22Okay.
00:49:23And now for the family blessing.
00:49:25Ha!
00:49:25I do hope I like your father.
00:49:27Okay.
00:49:54Get this crowd away from here, Mulligan.
00:49:56Clear the street and lock up the place.
00:50:00Did he have a mask on?
00:50:02No.
00:50:03Did you see his face?
00:50:04Not clearly.
00:50:06But I think I'd know him if I saw him again.
00:50:17I'll tell you, his daughter must be told.
00:50:19I'll go get her.
00:50:20No, you don't.
00:50:22You're our only witness, and we're going to hang on to you.
00:50:27You can go phone her if you want to.
00:50:48Why are we stopping here?
00:50:51This is the store.
00:50:55Which one?
00:50:56The cigar store.
00:51:00Your father works there?
00:51:03Yes.
00:51:04He manages the cigar counter.
00:51:12Something's happened.
00:51:13Let's go and find out what it is.
00:51:15You stay right where you are.
00:51:18I'll get all the dope.
00:51:36About 925, thank you.
00:51:42Hello, Mulligan.
00:51:43Well, what's all the excitement?
00:51:45Hello, Nicky.
00:51:46Where have you been spending the evening?
00:51:50Driving around with a friend?
00:51:52Didn't happen to be driving by this way before, did you?
00:51:56Not tonight, Mulligan.
00:52:05Who's the dame you got with you in your car?
00:52:07Dame?
00:52:09Why, that's Miss Miller.
00:52:10Lives over at 178th.
00:52:13You've seen her around.
00:52:16Her father works here?
00:52:17Yes.
00:52:18Manages the cigar counter.
00:52:20I'd like to see him.
00:52:22He's just been shot.
00:52:24The place was stuck up.
00:52:26Really?
00:52:28Oh, that's terrible.
00:52:30Badly hurt?
00:52:31Can't say yet.
00:52:33They just took him to Fordham Hospital.
00:52:36Oh, that's too bad.
00:52:38Well, I'd better get over there and tell her,
00:52:40and then I'll drive her up to the hospital.
00:52:44Oh, say, Mulligan.
00:52:46Got a match?
00:52:53Thanks.
00:52:59Nobody home.
00:53:01Somebody's got to find her.
00:53:05What is it, Nicky?
00:53:07What is it?
00:53:08Oh, nothing serious, Sheba.
00:53:10A guy tried to hold up the cigar store,
00:53:13but a cop caught him.
00:53:15What about Dad?
00:53:17Well, your dad had to go to the police station
00:53:19with a prisoner.
00:53:20That's a witness.
00:53:22He, uh,
00:53:22he won't be back for about an hour, Sheba.
00:53:27Shall we, uh,
00:53:29shall we wait?
00:53:31Are you sure Dad is all right?
00:53:33Sure.
00:53:36Then I guess we can go on.
00:53:38We'll see him later.
00:53:40I'm sorry, son.
00:53:42But I'm not going to run away.
00:53:44I'll come right over to the station afterwards.
00:53:56Get him.
00:53:57Get him.
00:54:00Here, Sheba.
00:54:02Stop, stop.
00:54:02Come back here.
00:54:38Well, honey,
00:54:40it's about time for the big step of the evening.
00:54:43Ready?
00:54:45Dance, you mean?
00:54:46Well, yes, sort of a dance.
00:54:48An old-fashioned two-step.
00:54:50Just you and me.
00:54:53It's the wedding march I'm talking about.
00:54:56You, you aren't kidding me, are you?
00:55:00I'm proposing to you.
00:55:02We're going to get married, aren't we?
00:55:05You sure you want to marry me?
00:55:07That's all I've been able to think of since I first saw you.
00:55:12But how about business?
00:55:13Well, you don't think I'd let business interfere with our marriage, do you?
00:55:17No, indeed.
00:55:18No more business tonight, darling.
00:55:21Come on, let's dig up a clergyman, get a load of those fatal words, and go honeymooning, huh?
00:55:27I don't mind telling you it's a temptation.
00:55:30What do you say?
00:55:32The car's full of gas, and the pocket's full of money.
00:55:37Well.
00:55:39Well?
00:55:39Well, let's...
00:56:30If you're kind of low, and you want to know what to do,
00:57:01I beg your pardon, sir, but you're wanted on the telephone.
00:57:04Oh, thanks.
00:57:11Will you excuse me, Sheba?
00:57:27Well, talk louder, will you? Don't whisper.
00:57:29I can hardly hear you.
00:57:33All right, fire ahead.
00:57:42How'd you find that out?
00:57:45Oh.
00:57:46From the hospital, huh?
00:57:49The guy's gonna croak?
00:57:52Oh, it can't be as bad as that.
00:57:57Well, if what you tell me is straight, you bet I will.
00:58:05Where?
00:58:07Montreal, huh?
00:58:09Train from Grand Central at 1110.
00:58:13Yeah, I can just make it.
00:58:16Sure, I got plenty of dough.
00:58:19Thanks for the tip.
00:58:22I'll be on that 1110.
00:58:23I'll be on that 119.
00:58:24Damn it.
00:58:52Let me try.
00:58:53What's the matter, Nicky?
00:58:54I've got to leave town on the 11-10.
00:58:55Just got time to make it.
00:58:57But you can't.
00:58:58I can't stop to argue.
00:58:59Biggest business deal of my life.
00:59:01Here.
00:59:03Here, you pay the check and take a taxi home.
00:59:05Nicky, you can't leave me like that.
00:59:06I tell you, I can't stop to argue.
00:59:09Aren't we going to be married?
00:59:10Yes, yes, of course we are.
00:59:11But I've got to run now.
00:59:12But why don't you tell me what it's about?
00:59:14Haven't I a right to know?
00:59:15I can't tell you now.
00:59:16Later, later.
00:59:17Nicky!
00:59:20Can't you take me with you?
00:59:22Can't do it.
00:59:22No time to get ready.
00:59:23Now, don't try to stop me.
00:59:25Are you running away from me?
00:59:26No!
00:59:27But I've got to make that train.
00:59:29How long are you going to be gone?
00:59:31I'll be back as soon as I can.
00:59:33Well, couldn't I go to the station with you?
00:59:35Oh, all right.
00:59:36Come on.
00:59:50Good.
00:59:50Still got time.
00:59:51But what are you going to do with the car?
00:59:53You take it back to the garage.
00:59:54You can use it till I get back.
00:59:55Wait a minute, Nicky!
00:59:56Wait a minute!
01:00:11Give me a ticket to Montreal in a compartment on the 1110.
01:00:13Yes, and give him a stopover at Sing Sing.
01:00:22Well, what's the gag?
01:00:23Oh, don't be so nervous, Nicky.
01:00:25The captain will tell you all about it.
01:00:28Why are you arresting him?
01:00:29He hasn't done anything.
01:00:31Nothing much.
01:00:32He just stuck up a cigar store and shot your father.
01:00:35Shot my father?
01:00:37Oh, where is he?
01:00:38How bad is he hurt?
01:00:39Why didn't somebody tell me?
01:00:41Your father's absolutely all right, Miss Miller.
01:00:43But where?
01:00:43They took him to the hospital, dressed his wounds, and sent him right home.
01:00:47He's fine now.
01:00:48Are you sure?
01:00:49Don't worry, Sheba.
01:00:50He's all right.
01:00:51I just left him.
01:00:52But I don't understand.
01:00:54The kid can explain it to you later.
01:00:56He framed this little going away party.
01:00:59Let me get this straight.
01:01:00How do you all happen to be here?
01:01:04Isn't there an 1110 train tonight for Montreal?
01:01:07Not tonight.
01:01:081110 tomorrow morning.
01:01:09So you see, Nicky, you have plenty of time to drop in and see the captain.
01:01:13But who telephoned me about the train and that the old guy was going to croak?
01:01:18Sherlock Holmes, Junior.
01:01:20Yes, sir.
01:01:21I did the telephoning and it wasn't a bad idea either.
01:01:31Well, all I can say is I must be getting simple-minded in my old age.
01:01:35You're simple-minded.
01:01:36I'm the one that's simple-minded.
01:01:38I fell for you.
01:01:40It's all right, honey.
01:01:41Don't worry.
01:01:42Women can't be expected to judge human nature like us men.
01:01:45You're not the first one he's made a chump of, Miss Miller.
01:01:48He's a pretty smooth young fellow.
01:01:50Thanks.
01:01:51You mean he was a pretty smooth young fellow.
01:01:56Well, Nicky, we'd better be...
01:02:00You don't mind if Shiva and I go home in your car, do you?
01:02:03No, no.
01:02:04He doesn't mind.
01:02:05He's not going to need that car for the next five years or so.
01:02:09Oh, it won't take us that long to drive home.
01:02:12Come on, Jack.
01:02:15Well, let's have the Dukes good-looking.
01:02:17You might as well get used to these,
01:02:19because you're going to wear them a lot.
01:02:21I don't think so.
01:02:23You know, I know a very smart lawyer that has the keys for these.
01:02:26Yeah?
01:02:27A lawyer won't do you any good.
01:02:29What you need is a magician.
01:02:32But, you know, I think a little rest will do me good.
01:02:34My nerves are all on edge.
01:02:36Come on.
01:02:36Wait a minute.
01:02:37Wait a minute, boys.
01:02:40Aren't you forgetting something?
01:02:47It's real nice of you, Mr. Solomon, to let us in on these little secrets.
01:02:51That's all right.
01:02:52I'd like to help you boys out.
01:02:53Come on with us.
01:03:10Jack.
01:03:12Hmm?
01:03:13Can you what?
01:03:14That is, do you think you can ever forgive me?
01:03:18Well, I'll answer your question and you'll answer mine.
01:03:21Do you think you can live on $35 a week?
01:03:24I don't think.
01:03:25I know I can.
01:03:27I can.
01:03:43Got a cigarette?
01:03:45Sure.
01:03:48Got a match?
01:03:50Sure.
01:03:57Yes, and we got a wagon, too.
01:04:02Sure.
01:04:15It's a funny thing that just comes along.
01:04:18Sometimes it's right, sometimes it's wrong.
01:04:21You learn about love every day.
01:04:28Maybe it's a thrill for only a while.
01:04:31Maybe a tear.
01:04:33Maybe a smile.
01:04:34You learn about love every day.
01:04:39Sometimes your heart might be glad.
01:04:43Then your heart, it might be sad.
01:04:46Oh, it's all in the game.
01:04:49So they say.
01:04:53Maybe you can feel or know he'll be true.
01:04:57Maybe he won't.
01:04:58What can you do?
01:05:00You learn about love every day.
01:05:29Sometimes your heart might be glad.
01:05:33Then your heart, it might be sad
01:05:36Oh, it's all in the game
01:05:39So they say
01:05:43Maybe you can feel or know he'll be true
01:05:47Maybe he won't, what can you do?
01:05:50You learn about love every day
