00:00THE END
01:37Hey, you.
01:39Shut up that music box, will you?
01:41That thing makes me homesick for Broadway.
01:44Here we've been stuck in this pint-sized town for nearly a month.
01:48It's enough to drive a guy goofy.
01:50Where you been all day?
01:51I've been waiting for you.
01:53Look.
01:54There's a kiss from Cinderella.
01:56From who?
01:57It's from Scotland.
01:58And we're okay.
01:59The bootleg wrap against us has been dropped.
02:02And we can go back to the big town tomorrow.
02:05Great.
02:06But what are we going to use for money when we get there?
02:09Our bootleg joint is empty and we need dough.
02:11I've been taking care of that.
02:14You know that barber downstairs?
02:16He looks like a cinch to me.
02:18And after the talks I've had with him, he thinks that joint of ours is a regular barber shop and
02:24not a speakeasy.
02:26But has he got any money?
02:28Not much.
02:29But that kid Eddie, whose mother runs this hotel, has got some dough.
02:33I've got a hunch we can do some business with him.
02:35You know, he's crazy to go to New York.
02:38I think I've got him to build up.
02:40Now listen, don't rush him and don't go too strong.
02:43All I can say is somebody has got to pay our way.
02:50And all I can say is somebody always did.
03:00What's up for the night, Gene?
03:03Yep.
03:05And for all the business I did, I might as well have been closed up all day.
03:17You know, Eddie, we're wasting our time in a burg like this.
03:24Now you take Kitty Lewis, for instance.
03:27She took a chance, went to New York City, and she's doing fine.
03:32What?
03:33Since they built that big hotel over there across the street, well, your hotel's not even making expenses.
03:39Why don't shave a customer in there for hours at a time?
03:44Most of the hicks in this town would like to cut their own hair.
03:50Well, I'm sick of this burg, too.
03:54Now listen, I've been to New York enough to know that I belong someplace where I can do something.
03:58Well, me too.
04:00Do you know that I'm the best barber in this town?
04:04Yes.
04:05Now you take those two fellas in room 21 that have been talking to us about going in business with
04:10them.
04:11They've got one of the best barbershops in New York City.
04:17What are we going to do about that?
04:19Are we going in partners with them?
04:22I don't know.
04:23I've told Mother about the proposition.
04:26We've talked about it three nights already.
04:28Why don't you talk to her again?
04:30I've got some money saved up.
04:32Why, they'll take us in for $5,000.
04:37All right, I'll do it.
04:39You stick around here.
04:40I'll go up and have another talk with Mother.
04:43This 9 o'clock town is getting on my nerves.
04:46Okay, now listen.
04:47I'll turn to the office, and you hurry back just as soon as you can get here, will you?
04:52All right, Gene.
04:53Okay, now.
05:05How are you, Mr.?
05:07Now, never mind that Mr. stuff.
05:11Just call me Gene.
05:15All right, Gene.
05:16Let me have a blank check, will you?
05:19Why, sure.
05:21Never mind that check, Dan.
05:23Give it to me tomorrow.
05:26This fellow's pretty lucky.
05:28Beat me for $400 at rummy again.
05:33$400 for rummy?
05:36He took me for $600 yesterday.
05:39Gee whiz.
05:41Many is the time he took me for plenty.
05:44Well, Gene, we just came down to say goodbye.
05:47We're leaving for New York in the morning.
05:50Yeah, you are?
05:51Yes.
05:52Got to get back to the big town on some business.
05:56Tomorrow, huh?
05:57Mm-hmm.
05:59Well, what about that proposition we were talking over?
06:03Don't we get in on that?
06:06I'm afraid it's too much for you, Gene.
06:09I think you better let it go.
06:11Oh, no, I think we can arrange it.
06:14You see, Eddie's upstairs talking it over with his mother right now.
06:17Yeah.
06:23Mother, dear.
06:24I know it's a good proposition.
06:27And if you'll give me the money, I'm positive that I won't fail.
06:32Eddie, dear.
06:34I'm willing to give you anything.
06:39Anything in the world.
06:42But I cannot afford to risk it.
06:46You know this hotel hasn't been doing so well lately.
06:50That's just the reason I want to go, Mom.
06:54I'm positive I'll make a success of it.
06:57You'll see.
06:57Eddie, oh, please.
07:02When children leave home, they forget.
07:08Now take Kitty Lewis, for instance.
07:11She hasn't written to you, has she?
07:15Are you sure that you're not over-anxious to be where she is?
07:21Are you?
07:24Naturally, I want to be nearer, Mother.
07:26Mother, you don't blame me, do you?
07:30No.
07:32I don't blame you.
07:34She's a dear, sweet girl.
07:36And I know you love her.
07:40Now listen, Mom.
07:42Give me the money, please.
07:44I'll just work my head off to make a success of everything.
07:48And I'll fix it so you can take things easy for the rest of your life.
07:59Hello, who is it?
08:01Oh, wait a minute, Jean.
08:03Those two men are going to leave in the morning.
08:05You see, they didn't say a word about it.
08:07Now I've got to see them before they leave.
08:10Where are they?
08:11Well, they're down in the lobby.
08:12Oh, Mother, let me take the money, won't you?
08:14I'm sure everything will be okay.
08:16Well, why not have the gentlemen come up here?
08:19All right.
08:20Well, hello, Jean.
08:21Have the gentlemen come up to our rooms, will you?
08:24And listen, you come up, too.
08:26Right.
08:33I know you're anxious to do something big.
08:38But I'd loan you the money in a moment.
08:42But I cannot afford to lose it.
08:45And you cannot afford to fail.
08:47Oh, don't you worry about me failing, Mother.
08:49I'm just sure everything's going to come out great.
09:01Come in, gentlemen.
09:03Say then, Mrs. Morgan.
09:06Mother, you know these two gentlemen, Mr. Dixon and Mr. Jackson?
09:10How do you do?
09:11How do you do?
09:11How do you do?
09:12I think I've had the pleasure of meeting you.
09:14You're the gentleman in room 21, aren't you?
09:16Yes, we are.
09:18Well, my son's been telling me of the wonderful proposition.
09:21Yes?
09:22It's a wonderful proposition, Mrs. Morgan.
09:25And I think a young fellow like Eddie will do great.
09:28Absolutely.
09:29You see, he means two fellows like me and Eddie, Ms. Morgan.
09:33Yes.
09:34I see.
09:36Well, I think you're both very good.
09:40Very nice boys.
09:42And I trust you implicitly.
09:46Oh, they're lovely fellas, Mrs. Morgan.
09:48I've talked to them radio since they've been here.
10:24Right this way, folks.
10:26Right this town and the Bowery.
10:28One dollar.
10:30Round trip.
10:31Come on, folks.
10:32Everybody ride.
10:33See the Lower East Side and the Chinese dance.
10:36One dollar, folks.
10:42Well, where'll we go?
10:43I tell you, let's go upstairs to the Royal Café.
10:47I'll flight with some things.
10:49Okay, baby.
10:50I've got the best tickets tonight for all the big show hits and down.
10:54Theater tickets.
10:55This is where we sell them inside.
10:57Step right in.
10:58Theater tickets.
10:59This is where we sell them.
11:00Get on the best.
11:05Pardon me, officer.
11:07But could you tell me where the other side of the street is?
11:11Why, it's right over there.
11:14That's strange.
11:16The fellow over there told me it was over here.
11:20Come on.
11:20Run along now.
11:21Come on.
12:17Don't tell your right name.
12:28Come on.
12:38Let's go.
12:51Let's go.
12:51Let's go.
12:51Let's go.

14:17¶¶
14:18Oh, Eddie, Eddie!
14:22What's the matter?
14:24Oh, another bootleg murder.
14:25Officer Thomas Kerwin killed in the bootleg war.
14:29That's just another reason that I want to get out of this place and this racket.
14:32If I'd have known six months ago what I know now, I wouldn't be here.
14:36Yeah.
14:38We're a couple of smart fellows.
14:40Well, we thought we were buying a respectable barber shop
14:43and get hooked into a speakeasy and a warehouse for bottled goods.
14:47Yeah.
14:49About the only thing I ever shave around this joint is labels off of bottles.
14:53It's a good thing for us they didn't try to sell us Central Park or Coney Island.
14:58Yeah.
14:59We're a couple of smart fellows.
15:03Hey, listen, Gene.
15:05If I didn't have my mother's money tied up in this thing, I'd quit right now.
15:09And believe me, as soon as I get even, I'm through.
15:13Well, you and me both.
15:15You see, we got tricked into this thing, Eddie.
15:18And we got to go through with it.
15:19See, we were tricked by a couple of fine gentlemen.
15:25Yeah.
15:26We went into it too quickly.
15:32There come those two fine gentlemen now.
15:37Look out, they don't steal your watch.
15:41And how are the little town Soriel brothers today?
15:45Great.
15:47And all I ask is to get one of you birds in that chair for about a minute.
15:52Oh, there's no use getting sore about it.
15:55What do you expect us to do, kiss you with the deal you handed out?
15:58Well, you've got no kick coming.
16:01We split with you.
16:02I don't want that kind of money.
16:04No.
16:05And what Wade bought was a regular barber shop.
16:07Not a speakeasy.
16:09Well, here's your chance to have a regular shop.
16:12Did you see the night's paper?
16:14Yes, I did.
16:15Well, you know, that's enough for Dan and me.
16:18You know, this town is going to be so hot from now on, you won't be able to live in
16:23it.
16:23So this joint is yours.
16:25It's in your name anyway.
16:27Well, so long, Eddie.
16:28See you in church.
16:30Come on, chick.
16:31Now, wait a minute, Dan.
16:33Aren't you going to say goodbye to the best little barber in the country?
16:42I hope you two guys spend your old age in jail.
16:48That's a nose edge.
16:54Hello?
16:55Oh, hello, Kitty.
16:58All right, honey.
17:00Well, I'll be, I'll drive over and get you in the car.
17:02I'll meet you in front of the apartment.
17:04Yeah, you have plenty of time for the show.
17:06All right.
17:12That is Kitty.
17:13I'm going over and see her.
17:15I don't know what time I'll be back.
17:18Well, at least you've got somebody decent to go and talk to.
17:24I'll see you later.
17:25All right.
17:27Watch yourself, Eddie.
17:39I'll see you later, Eddie.
17:39Oh, another bootleg murder.
17:42You see, that's why I want you to quit that business.
17:46Sooner or later the cops are going to find out that your barber shop is only a speakeasy.
17:51There's so many other things you can do, Eddie.
17:55Oh, I know it, darling.
17:56And I am going to quit.
17:58And when I do, you quit that nightclub, too.
18:02Oh, you're right.
18:04I don't want to work there any longer than I have to.
18:07Oh, you know, Hawk Miller's always hanging around me.
18:10Hawk Miller?
18:12Hawk Miller likes me.
18:14He's my friend.
18:16And besides, he knows that you're my girl.
18:22You don't know Hawk like I do.
18:25It's me like...
18:27Oh, don't you be silly.
18:29He has a girl of his own, Molly.
18:32She's been his girl for years.
18:35All right.
18:37But just remember that I told you.
18:40Now, he's all right, honey.
18:43Besides, I don't want to have any trouble with him.
18:47I expect to sell him all my stuff.
18:50Well, I want to get out of there as soon as possible.
18:54You know, it gets pretty rough.
18:57Fights doing everything.
18:59I get almost afraid sometimes.
19:03Well, don't you be afraid of anybody, honey.
19:08Here.
19:09Look.
19:12I've had that for years.
19:13My father gave it to me to practice with when I was a kid.
19:17And if anybody annoys you,
19:19well, you just fire it in the air a couple of times,
19:21and that'll scare them away.
19:24Cute, isn't it?
19:27You come along, honey. It's getting late.
19:29You've got to get over to the cafe and do your stuff.
19:33All right.
19:34Let's go.
19:36I'll be glad to get it over with.
19:38Gee, I hate that place.
20:22Hey, Bob.
20:24I want you to be very careful who you let in here tonight.
20:28Make sure that everybody has a card.
20:31Don't worry, Hoff.
20:33Leave it on me.
20:57Don't worry, Hoff.
21:00Don't worry, Hoffs.
21:23You must have oneión if I can get out of here.
21:30You...
21:54Come in.
22:00When it ain't nobody else.
22:02Now what do you want?
22:04Well, I want a lot of things.
22:06But most of all, I want you.
22:11Don't you ever get bored looking at me, Eddie?
22:15Well, I get bored looking at anyone else but you.
22:19In fact, I don't like anyone looking at you.
22:23You know, I believe you're jealous.
22:25You believe I'm jealous?
22:27And why shouldn't I be of the prettiest girl in the world?
22:32You know, someday I'm going to have a nightclub all of my own.
22:39With no one in it to watch you but me.
22:43Oh, no.
22:45You promised that we were all finished with nightclubs.
22:48Didn't you, Eddie?
22:52That's right, I did.
22:54Well, that's settled.
22:55Now I'm alone, dear.
22:57Because I have to dress.
23:02How about a little kiss?
23:06Now I'll run out and get my ringside seat.
23:11I'll be seeing you.
23:43Now, folks.
23:43Now, me.
23:43I'll be seeing you.
23:43Now, folks.
23:44Now, me.
23:54Now, folks, I'm going to say, folks, now comes that horrible moment in every nightclub when
23:59the master of ceremonies feels a song coming on, and this is that horrible moment.
24:04You know, that terrible time, and the girl, she leans over to rest court, and she says,
24:08Daddy, give that boy two dollars.
24:10Well, well, here it is.
24:21That's the time I really get to thinking that I'm heaven-blessed.
24:28Long see the shadows rising, that means I've had my rest.
24:33And when I wake up in the early dawning, that's the time I love the best.
24:38Long mornin' glory, tell them stories at dawnin'.
24:43And every day they weep's up lazy at dawnin'.
24:48Now, when the evening's shadow creepin', that time you feel like sleepin'.
24:54Mr. Rooster wakes you up at dawnin'.
24:59They love us sweeter, like some pleaser at dawn, dawn, dawnin'.
25:04I'll try through a lovin' newer at dawn, dawn, dawnin'.
25:08Why, you mammy's, I'll harass you while you're yawnin'.
25:13And all your little trouble turnin' a bubble that donin'.
25:18Say, lo, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
25:51And all your little trouble turnin' above that dawnin'.
26:22Hey, here comes the hawk.
26:26I'd better sit down.
26:48Hey, listen, hawk.
26:51I don't think we'd better take any chance with this stuff.
26:54You know it's old century, don't you?
26:57You don't think?
26:59You know we're not gonna take any chances when a cop has been bumped off.
27:03Well, I didn't bump him off.
27:06Don't blame it on me.
27:07Shut up.
27:09Who asked you?
27:11He was killed, wasn't he?
27:13Sure, he was killed.
27:14Well, somebody's gonna take the rap.
27:18The only evidence they have is those 12 cases of old century.
27:24And it's right here in this joint.
27:27We were a bunch of saps to bring it here.
27:30We've got to get rid of it.
27:32That's just what I'm going to do.
27:36And I want you to handle it for me, Tommy.
27:39What?
27:39Me?
27:40You must think I got marshmallows for brains, hawk.
27:44Why, you poor crumb.
27:47You're scared.
27:49You're afraid to take a chance.
27:51Why don't you take it?
27:54You take it, Sam.
27:56This guy's got a streak of yellow a yard wide.
27:59Me?
28:01No, I don't know.
28:02Not me.
28:03Why don't you take it?
28:05Take it yourself.
28:06You know, when it comes right down to it, you...
28:09You killed the cops, you know.
28:10We didn't have anything to do with it, did we?
28:13Shut up, will you?
28:14Will you pin those lips together and quit making those cracks
28:17about who bumped him off?
28:18Well...
28:23We'll get you guys a couple of megaphones.
28:36Hey, it's Eddie Morgan outside.
28:39Does that give you babies any ideas?
28:42No, but it might give you an idea.
28:46Yeah?
28:47Why?
28:50Well...
28:52You know, Eddie runs that joint over on 46th Street.
28:55You know that.
28:56And he's got a chicken that ain't so bad either.
28:59Maybe you could kill two birds with one stone.
29:03Why, what do you mean, Tommy?
29:06Now, you don't think for a minute that I would frame Eddie, do you?
29:10No.
29:11No, no.
29:11You wouldn't frame anybody, Hawks.
29:14No, not you.
29:16It's a mistake.
29:19Well, there's an idea there.
29:21If they find the goods here, it'll go pretty hard with you, Hawks.
29:27And it won't go so easy for you two guys either.
29:29Now, listen.
29:31If they grab Eddie, we can help him if we're on the outside, can't we?
29:36Sure, we could do that.
29:37You're always a great guy for fixing things, Hawks.
29:41Supposing you do it.
29:43Yeah, you better leave it to me.
29:45Yeah.
29:46We'll leave it to you.
29:47We'll leave it right to you.
29:49You guys make a sneak.
29:50I think I got an idea.
29:57But don't leave town.
30:00Don't leave town?
30:02Why not?
30:03Well, it might look bad.
30:06Well, all right.
30:06We'll just hang around the joint, huh?
30:09If you see Eddie Morgan out there, tell him I want to see him.
30:12All right.
30:27All right.
30:28Hey, Eddie.
30:29The hawk wants you in the office.
30:32I'll see him a little bit later.
30:34Look, Eddie, you better go in now.
30:36He wants to see you right away.
30:39All right.
30:47All right.
31:05Hello, Hawks.
31:06Did you want to see me?
31:07Hi, Eddie.
31:08Come on inside.
31:13What's on you that?
31:15Oh, nothing in particular.
31:18How's everything over the shop?
31:20All right.
31:21Just fair.
31:23You know how it is.
31:27I'll tell you what I want to see about, Eddie.
31:31I just got a tip from headquarters that I might be raided.
31:34By federal men.
31:37Oh.
31:39And I was wondering if you wouldn't mind a few cases for me for a few hours.
31:44Till it flows over.
31:46Why, certainly.
31:48Why not?
31:49Where is it?
31:50Right here.
31:51There are only a few cases.
31:53Uh, where's your car?
31:55Right outside.
31:55Good.
32:03Oh, I see.
32:06I'll take it over right now.
32:08That's a good idea.
32:09Now take it out the back way.
32:14Here's the key.
32:16I certainly appreciate this, Eddie.
32:20Anytime at all, Hawk.
32:23Thanks.
32:51Mr. Miller.
33:02Wait a minute, Kitty.
33:03I want to see you for a minute.
33:05But please, Mr. Miller.
33:06I have to hurry.
33:09Why the Mr. stuff, Kitty?
33:11Why, you're the coldest proposition I ever met.
33:14Why the icicles?
33:17You ought to know that hi-hat stuff will never get you anyplace but me.
33:21But I'm not trying to hi-hat you, Mr. Miller.
33:23But I have to make another number.
33:26Wait a minute, Kitty.
33:28I want to tip you off for something.
33:32Now you're running around with that sap Eddie Morgan and wasting your time.
33:37What can he do for you?
33:39A piking boot figure.
33:42Who was it that took you out of the chorus, huh?
33:45Me, wasn't it?
33:47Who was it that gave you a chance to lead numbers?
33:50Me?
33:52Why, I can set you on a big show.
33:55Get you anything.
33:57And you'll run around with a bologna like that, Sim.
34:01Come on inside and sit down, huh?
34:03Oh, I can't. I have to hurry.
34:05Will you be back?
34:08I'll try.
34:09I'll try.
34:14Wait a minute, Hawk.
34:18You're a hound for chicken, aren't you?
34:25Well, what do you want?
34:29Nothing much.
34:30Only this.
34:32That kid don't want any part of you.
34:35Hey, you mind your own business, will you?
34:37I'll take care of that kid.
34:39So I see.
34:42But I'm warning you to stay off.
34:45Yeah? Why?
34:48Oh, I'm just warning you, that's all.
34:51You might get indigestion from too much chicken.
34:56Well, if I get indigestion, it won't be from an old hen.
35:01Wait a minute.
35:06You didn't say that when you wanted the money to run this joint.
35:09You didn't say that when you wanted me to stick by you through all the tough times.
35:12Oh, save that gab, will you?
35:15Why don't you get yourself a tambourine and go out on the corner and pedal your blues?
35:19You be careful that you're not singing the blues, Hawk.
35:23You think you can pick any chicken you want and throw me back in the deck.
35:27But you can't do it.
35:29It ain't lucky.
35:31Who said so?
35:32I said so.
35:34Yeah? Well, you said too much.
35:36Now you understand? We're through.
35:39I'm sick and tired of you sitting around this joint, day in and day out,
35:43staring and watching every move I make.
35:46Now you beat it.
35:48I have important business to attend to.
35:52So have I.
36:15So have I.
36:16Here comes two cops.
36:18You better duck.
36:38Here comes a little.
36:39Here comes a little.
36:58Hello boy.
36:59How are ya?
37:03Sit down.
37:14Let's go.
37:14Have a cigar.
37:21Well, what's on your mind, boys?
37:25Plenty.
37:26You heard about Pam Kerwin being bumped off the car.
37:30He certainly did.
37:32There's an extra route about it.
37:37Did you land the guy that did it?
37:39No, but we're well hawked.
37:43Well, I hope so.
37:46It's pretty tough when a cop is bumped off.
37:50They're my best friend.
37:52Yes, and it's going to be tough on the guy who did it.
37:57Well, I hope you get the dirty rat.
38:02Any ideas?
38:03No.
38:04Have you?
38:07Me?
38:10Why, what ideas would I have about a job like that?
38:14I was thinking you might know something.
38:17And if you do know, it would be a good idea to talk.
38:22Well, I ain't got nothing to say.
38:24Well, I have.
38:26This killing was a bootleg job and it concerns liquor.
38:30Until we know who killed that cop, we're going to close every joint.
38:34Yes.
38:35This one first.
38:38Gee, that's pretty tough, boys.
38:41Well, I'd like to help you.
38:43You got any clues?
38:45Nothing much.
38:47The stuff they was after was old century.
38:51I haven't seen any before this job in two years.
38:57Old century.
39:00Yeah.
39:01There was a few cases missing.
39:04The ones that did the job took some of the stuff.
39:08See any around?
39:38Well, boy, what's the matter?
39:40Surely you don't think that I would have any stuff like that lying around, do you?
39:44That or any other stuff.
39:45We're not thinking anything, Hawk.
39:48But it's about time you began thinking.
39:51You probably could tell us plenty.
39:53So open your trap and say something.
40:02Boys.
40:04You know I'm not a squealer, don't you?
40:08You know I've always been on the up and up, don't you?
40:13Why, I wouldn't hurt a pal for the world.
40:17But when it comes to killing a cop,
40:21I'm against him.
40:22Well, well, come on.
40:25You say the guy that did the job got away with some cases of old century.
40:30Yes, yes.
40:32Well, I might be able to help you.
40:36I think I got a clue.
40:39Where?
40:39Who?
40:40I can't say just now, but...
40:44You know where the White Way Barbershop is, don't you?
40:48Over on 46th Street.
40:50Right.
40:53Will you be there at 10 o'clock?
40:55And I might show you something interesting.
41:00Get me?
41:11How about two?
41:12You know where the White Way Barbershop is at 10 o'clock?
41:15Right.
41:18All right.
41:19All right.
41:20All right.
41:30All right.
41:30All right.
41:32All right.
41:32All right.
41:33All right.
41:34All right.
42:02Hey, the cops were just here.
42:04Yeah, I know the world.
42:05We saw them.
42:06What do they want?
42:08Crosby knows something.
42:11He does?
42:13Yes.
42:15Sit down.
42:23Now, we've got to cover ourselves up.
42:26I've planted the stuff in Eddie's shop.
42:28Yeah?
42:29And the Dicks will be there at 10 o'clock.
42:32Uh-huh.
42:33But they must not find Eddie.
42:41What do you want us to do?
42:44I want you guys to make him disappear.
42:48Disappear?
42:50Certainly.
42:52If they don't find him, it will cinch everything for us.
42:57Don't you understand?
42:59What do you mean, take him for a ride?
43:10Oh.
43:10Ooh.
43:29424 Bryant.
43:32No operator.
43:33424.
43:34Yes.
43:38Hello?
43:39Hello, is Eddie there?
43:40Bring him to the phone quick.
43:41This is Kitty.
43:43Yes.
43:47Hello, Eddie?
43:48Listen.
43:49The hawk framed you.
43:52Oh, I'm telling you, he did.
43:53I heard him.
43:54Yes.
43:56Crossby and Collins are coming down to the barbershop at 10 o'clock.
43:59Yes.
44:00Oh, listen to me.
44:01Eddie, please.
44:01It's...
44:28Hello, Gee.
44:30Hello, Hawk.
44:42Where's Eddie?
44:44Well, he was here a while ago.
44:47He went out with a couple of guys.
44:51A couple of guys, eh?
44:53Yeah, two of them.
45:01Well, I think I'll stick around a while.
45:04All right, Hawk.
45:06Make yourself at home.
45:08Have you left that new police gazette yet?
45:13Get a load of that third page.
45:23Not bad, eh?
45:41Hello, Eddie.
45:44Hello, Hawk.
45:46Did you get the stuff down all right?
45:49Certainly.
45:50Everything's Jake.
45:51Why?
45:53Oh, nothing.
45:56Just want to make sure that you have it, that's all.
45:58That ain't all, Hawk.
46:03You thought you'd put something over on me, didn't you?
46:07Why, what do you mean?
46:09Why, you're all excited about nothing.
46:13You ought to know me better than that old pal.
46:16Haven't I always been on the up and up with you?
46:19Why, I can't understand what you mean.
46:23I mean just this.
46:25You tried to frame me.
46:27You know the cops were looking for old century.
46:31That's the reason you wanted me to plant it in this joint.
46:33Now, don't get excited.
46:35Don't get excited.
46:37Why, somebody must be kidding you.
46:39Yeah?
46:47Well, that may be so.
46:50It may not be so.
46:53But I protected myself.
46:55You what?
46:58You got the stuff, didn't you?
47:00I told you, yes.
47:05But when the cops get here...
47:08Cops?
47:09Now who said anything about cops?
47:13They don't try to pull that on me.
47:15You know the dicks will be here at 10 o'clock.
47:18Oh, you're crazy.
47:21You're crazy.
47:21Yeah, well, maybe I am and maybe I'm not.
47:23That doesn't make any difference.
47:26I'm just crazy enough to know...
47:29that you're the guy...
47:31that bumped off that cop.
47:36Why, you poor chump.
47:38You're hooked.
47:40Yes, and you're hooked good.
47:41Because when the dicks get here and find the stuff,
47:44they'll grab you.
47:45And I'll grab Kitty.
47:48Don't make me that.
47:50They'll take nobody but you.
47:53Because Kitty quit your joint tonight.
47:55And I dumped the stuff in the river.
47:57What do you think of that?
47:58Why, you can't get away with that stuff, will you?
48:00I haven't got a chance!
48:22What's happened, Eddie?
48:23Somebody shot the hawk.
48:24Who did it?
48:25I don't know.
48:25It came from back there.
48:27Listen, we've got to get him out of here.
48:29I'll... I'll tell you.
48:29I'll put him in my car and dump him along the road something.
48:32All right.
48:33Pick him up.
48:33All right.
48:41Come here.
48:43Give me a hand, Eddie.
48:45It's too late.
48:46What do we do?
48:47I don't know.
48:48Here.
48:48Put him in that chair.
48:51Got him?
48:58Put him in that chair.
49:04Listen.
49:05Stall as long as you can.
49:07I've got to make a getaway.
49:08Okay.
49:31I'm going over here.
49:36I'm going over here.
49:38You're going over here.
49:39I'll wait.
49:39I've just started on this gentleman.
49:40All right.
49:41I'll wait.
49:42See, you want some assands, too.

50:58What is it?
50:59What is this?
51:01I don't know.
51:02That's what they all say.
51:03You better speak up and save yourself a whole day.
51:05I had a lot of grief.
51:07How did it happen?
51:09Well, all I know, Eddie and me were in here talking,
51:12and the hawk came in.
51:14There was a lot of conversation about old century.
51:17And then the hawk makes a crack about Eddie's name, Kitty.
51:21And the hawk goes for his rod, and then he got shot.
51:25By Eddie?
51:26Oh, I don't know who did it, but it wasn't Eddie.
51:29Eddie Morgan did it, and you know he did it.
51:31Where is he?
51:32I don't know.
51:33Oh, where is he?
51:36Oh, he went out that door.
51:38Collins, take charge.
51:40I'll grab this guy, Eddie, before he knows where he stands.
51:44Listen, Chief, honest to God, I don't know.
51:46Oh, listen, listen, listen.
51:48I wasn't in on the play, I don't know nothing.
51:50Oh, what are you talking about?
51:51Everything will be all right.
51:52I know.
51:52Calm yourself.
52:03No.
52:04No, no.
52:04No.
52:20No.
52:28Kitty, we've got to get out of here now, quickly.
52:31Pack up the things and let's go.
52:34I know.
52:35Hawk Miller.
52:36How do you know?
52:59Why don't you hurry?
53:01You're not going anywhere.
53:05Well, Eddie, it looks like I caught up with you, don't it?
53:09What do you want with me, Mr. Crosby?
53:11I haven't done nothing.
53:12Of course you have.
53:13You must take me for an awful boob.
53:17I just left your barbershop.
53:20Hawk Miller is dead.
53:23He was killed with this.
53:31Come on.
53:33Let's go.
53:34Oh, no.
53:36Don't take him.
53:37He didn't do it.
53:38Honest, he didn't do it.
53:39No?
53:40Then who did?
53:43Quiet.
53:44Keep quiet, Kitty.
53:45She doesn't have to say anything.
53:48Neither do you.
53:49I've got proof enough to send you to the chair.
53:54Come on.
53:55Both of you.
54:13Wait a minute, Crosby.
54:15You've got the wrong people.
54:17What do you mean?
54:20I mean, they've got nothing to do with the killing of Poffmore.
54:25How do you know?
54:29Well, I guess I'm the one person who ought to know because...
54:34I did it.
54:38I don't believe he was your man, wasn't he?
54:47Yes.
54:49He was my man.
54:54But no.
54:57I loved him.
55:00I loved him.
55:01But I couldn't stand his loving somebody else.
55:05When he told me he was through with me, I...
55:09I made up my mind he was through with all women.
55:15So when Kitty here was doing her number, I...
55:17I went to her dressing room and took her gun and followed him to the barber shop.
55:25Then...
55:26Then I heard him tell Eddie he was going to kill him and take his girl.
55:33Oh, I must have gone mad.
55:36I was jealous, I was crazy, I killed him.
55:47He was no good.
55:50But I loved him.
55:57Well, he's gone now.
56:01So I can tell you without trouble crossing him.
56:07He was the one who killed the policeman, Tom Lurton.
56:13He did?
56:15He did.
56:19Well, that's all.
56:24Come on, let's get it over with.
56:29I'm not afraid.
56:32I've lived.
56:34And I've lost.
56:37And I've lost.
56:45Molly, you're all right.
56:49You've certainly saved these kids.
56:57You both will take my tip to get out of this city.
57:01Don't you see how close you've been to tragedy?
57:05Get out.
57:06Take a train to the country where there's trees and flowers and mountains.
57:12Leave the roaring forties to roar without.
57:18You're right, Mr. Crosby.
57:21We're going to leave the first chance we get.
57:23We've made our minds.
57:27We want to do right for each other and everyone else.
57:32There's no luck in anything else.
57:36Right.
57:39Come on, Molly.
57:44I don't think it's going to be so tough for you.
57:47There was a reward for the killer, dead or alive.
57:51Besides, you've saved the state a lot of expense at the cost of an electrocution.
57:59I'm going to see that you get a break.
58:03And I don't think you've got much to worry about.
58:20Don't forget the train to the country.
58:31I don't think you've got much to worry about.
58:35Honey, we'll fly.
59:09I don't think you've got much to worry about.
59:10I don't think you've got much to worry about.
59:12I don't think you've got much to worry about.
59:12I don't think you've got much to worry about.
