00:14:31you know
00:14:32you know
00:14:32you know
00:15:01Please, please do relax, Mr. Fosiati.
00:15:05It's really very difficult to fit you if you keep breathing so hard.
00:15:11Well, I'll want to breathe in the clothes when I get them, won't I?
00:15:15What's that?
00:15:17Oh, naturally, naturally.
00:15:21Hello, Oscar.
00:15:23How do you do, Mr. Windham? I think your coat's quite ready.
00:15:26Hello, Mr. Windham.
00:15:28Hi, hello, Fosiati. How are you?
00:15:30I guess you didn't expect to find me here, did you?
00:15:32Well, why not?
00:15:35What do you think of this soup and fish?
00:15:38Well, you know, a man blessed with your physique really ought to wear evening clothes all the time.
00:15:43I'd look great out on the end of a girder in this outfit, wouldn't I?
00:15:55This sure is hard work.
00:15:57And it's tough on the dogs, too.
00:16:02A man's sure got to go to a lot of trouble to look like a gentleman, don't he?
00:16:06And that's not the worst of it.
00:16:09Now that I've got them, what am I going to do with them?
00:16:11Why, wear them.
00:16:13Yeah?
00:16:16Well, I don't know one place that I could take this suit to.
00:16:20What is this, a challenge?
00:16:22Well, you can call it that if you want to.
00:16:23But what I'm getting at is that I wouldn't get at all offended
00:16:27if one of your swell friends would invite me to dinner some night.
00:16:32Well, you know, you're taking me up on my promise rather sooner than I expected.
00:16:38You wait here.
00:16:39I'll see what I can do right now.
00:16:41Now, don't go away, will you?
00:16:43You don't think I'd go out on the street in this outfit and get arrested?
00:17:03Mr. Windham is on the phone, Mrs. Howell.
00:17:05Thank you, Ronald.
00:17:14Hello, George.
00:17:16Hello, Mimi.
00:17:18I've got news for you.
00:17:19You're having an extra guest at your dinner tonight.
00:17:23Really?
00:17:23Kind of you let me know.
00:17:26It's a clown of mine.
00:17:27I don't think you know him.
00:17:29Joe Porziati.
00:17:31The skyscraper king, is that the fellow?
00:17:34I just ran into him at the tailor.
00:17:47Well, you're launched on your social career.
00:17:51Yeah?
00:17:52Well, you sure do work fast.
00:17:55What did you do?
00:17:56It's the dinner party in Mrs. Meany Howell.
00:17:58Tonight, eight o'clock.
00:18:01Say, that's Dwight Howell's wife, isn't it?
00:18:04Yes.
00:18:04You know them?
00:18:05Of course I don't.
00:18:07But there sure has been a lot in the papers about them lately.
00:18:11They're, uh...
00:18:12They're separated, aren't they?
00:18:14Well, don't tell me that you don't want to dine at the home of a woman who's separated from her
00:18:18husband.
00:18:19You know me better than that.
00:18:23It's 150 East 55th Street, Joe.
00:18:26150 East 55th, huh?
00:18:28Well, I'll sure be there.
00:18:30So, have a cigarette.
00:18:34Have one.
00:18:36Oh, thank you, sir. Thank you.
00:18:39I don't smoke them myself, but they tell me they're all right.
00:18:44My crest.
00:18:46That's my family coat of arms.
00:18:51That's very good, Joe.
00:18:53I'll see you later.
00:18:54Goodbye, and thanks.
00:18:56Say, David.
00:18:57Have you got my coat?
00:19:07You'll pardon me, sir, but if you want your clothes to look well, you shouldn't carry much in your pocket.
00:19:14I never do.
00:19:32To whom do you want me to send the old suits, sir?
00:19:37What old suit?
00:19:41Gentlemen generally send suits like this to the Salvation Army.
00:19:48Well, if that's what gentlemen do, I guess I'd better play a hand.
00:19:54But it still looks pretty good to me just the same.
00:19:59Gentlemen or no gentlemen, you're not going to take that vest away from me.
00:20:04You mean that waistcoat?
00:20:07I mean that vest.
00:20:13You can wrap it up with the rest of my things and send it over to my house.
00:20:17Yes, sir. To what address, sir, please?
00:20:2136 South Mason Street.
00:20:2336 South Mason Street.
00:20:24I suppose that that would be over in the new residential district on the west side.
00:20:30Not exactly.
00:20:31It would be over in the old residential district on the east side.
00:20:35It's the house I was born in.
00:20:37Yes, sir.
00:20:41The waistcoat is made so that the lowest button can be left unbuttoned.
00:20:49Why?
00:20:53Why?
00:20:56It's the style.
00:21:05We'll button it.
00:21:07net.
00:21:27Here, here, here, here. What's the matter with you?!
00:21:30Give me the fucking...
00:21:31That's right, sir, in the fight.
00:21:34I'm ashamed of you.
00:21:35I'll take you right home, I will.
00:21:37Oh, Mr. Forziati.
00:21:40Sure, I'm sorry to bother you, sir,
00:21:41but your boy has been fighting again.
00:21:44Did he win?
00:21:46Well, I wouldn't exactly say he win,
00:21:48and then again, I wouldn't say he lose.
00:21:51I think a draw would be a pretty fair decision.
00:21:55I'll just get my second win when the cops stop this, Pop.
00:21:59You talk a great fight, Joey.
00:22:02But I'll get you, young Kelly.
00:22:05Sure, what'll I do with him, Mr. Forziati?
00:22:07Leave him to me.
00:22:08I'll do that, Mr. Forziati, and it's sorry I am for him.
00:22:12All right, get in the house with you.
00:22:14By golly, he'll not be sitting down to his dinner tonight, I'm thinking.
00:22:39You made that other boy lick you, didn't you?
00:22:43Then on top of that, you had to go and get caught.
00:22:48I'm going to see just how much you really do know.
00:22:50Come on, stick them up.
00:22:54Come on.
00:22:55I'll copy this time, right on the button.
00:23:00You're still a sucker for that right cross, Joey.
00:23:04I guess I'm just out of my class.
00:23:08I've got to grow something like you.
00:23:10All right, get up on your feet and I'll see how you can wrestle.
00:23:12Come on now.
00:23:39Let's play a circuit.
00:23:39Come on now.
00:23:40Let's play a circuit.
00:23:46Come on now.
00:23:49Come on now.
00:23:51Your grandmother's quarters.
00:23:56What do you call this?
00:23:59This is a home and not a place for pride to fight.
00:24:04This mill, this mill can wash your scrubby and clean yourself.
00:24:08Your grandmother wants one of us to go upstairs and get cleaned up, Joey.
00:24:11And it sure ain't me.
00:24:14Come on, now.
00:24:16Make it snappy.
00:24:18Eat it.
00:24:21Mama mia.
00:24:22Cresso, bambino.
00:24:24Mama, mama, don't you worry about him.
00:24:27He's a good boy.
00:24:29Don't you remember when I was a kid like that?
00:24:31I used to be fighting all of that.
00:24:33And I haven't turned out so bad now, have I?
00:24:40Oh, mama.
00:24:44Oh, ha, ha, ha, shh.
00:24:50Give them a salvation army, mama.
00:24:56Those two.
00:25:05And there's going to be a lot more coming, too.
00:25:08Oh, son of a child.
00:25:11These are my new boiled shirts from Fifth Avenue.
00:25:15Everything's from Fifth Avenue, ma.
00:25:18Ha, ha, ha.
00:25:21Fifth Avenue.
00:25:23Da, da, da, dee.
00:25:25Da, da, da, dee.
00:25:27Get a load of that, ma.
00:25:28The real soup and fish.
00:25:31And no mistake.
00:25:32Aren't you getting some fancy ideas, Joe?
00:25:36Last week, the rolls the roys.
00:25:39And now this, clothes.
00:25:41I haven't started yet, ma.
00:25:43And now this house is not good enough for you.
00:25:49This house is good enough for me as long as you want to live in it.
00:25:52You know that.
00:25:53That was all settled when Rosie died.
00:25:56When she lived, things might have been different.
00:25:58She always wanted to move uptown on account of Joey.
00:26:02I don't get you, ma.
00:26:04Why don't you want your boy to go ahead?
00:26:07I'm afraid my boy goes so far.
00:26:11Far ahead.
00:26:13He won't be my boy no more.
00:26:20That's funny, ma.
00:26:22Now, whose boy do you think I'll be?
00:26:28You're not always worrying about something, it's your mom.
00:26:33There's a man at the door who says to have a appointment with her.
00:26:37His name is Oscar.
00:26:39Oh, send him right in.
00:26:41Oscar?
00:26:42Sure, my tailor.
00:26:43Your tailor?
00:26:44He's a great guy, ma.
00:26:46You'll like him.
00:26:48He's coming down to help me get dressed.
00:26:51Do you need the help to get dressed?
00:27:05Can I help you, sir?
00:27:08I hope so.
00:27:22Now then, sir, let's tackle this thing together.
00:27:27Could you shrink your neck a bit?
00:27:57Oh, my God.
00:28:06Now, what's the next piece of harness?
00:28:08The tie, sir.
00:28:12Let me thread it for you, sir.
00:28:15Thread it?
00:28:22Now, tie.
00:28:39I'm afraid I'll have to fix the rest from the back some.
00:28:43Sir?
00:29:00I beg your pardon.
00:29:04I beg your pardon.
00:29:15There you are, sir.
00:29:17Make yourself quite comfortable now, sir.
00:29:23Now, the coat, sir.
00:29:52Good evening.
00:29:53Good evening.
00:30:00Good evening.
00:30:03Mrs. Howell will be down to the wreck, sir, if you'll come in the way.
00:30:33Dinner is a thing, sir.
00:30:38Yes, sir.
00:30:38Yes, I know, but I always like to be a little ahead of time.
00:30:40I can't.
00:31:09Let's go.
00:31:10I'm Joe for the audience. I suppose I oughtn't to be here either
00:31:15Mother thinks I'm in bed she does but I just came down to get out of this building puzzle
00:31:26Sure, this world building for later
00:31:31Windy provide I wish you'd come up and show me how to do it do all right hop aboard
00:31:40Where do we go? Upstairs. Upstairs all right here we go. Yes. Yes, Reynolds
00:31:51Mr. Forziati has arrived, madam. Mr. Forziati
00:31:56I'm sure I told Mr. Windham to tell him dinner at 8. Yes, madam. Well, who has asked the gentleman
00:32:01to wait down there? Oh, we'll hurry
00:32:06I'll just a minute. Mr. Construction Foreman and I'll put these last two rivets in, huh?
00:32:22That's all finished. Now then you get over on your side of the building and help me put up this
00:32:26thing
00:32:27Here we go
00:32:34How's that? That's wonderful. I'll say it is
00:32:42I'll go in and see if Jackie's asleep. Yes, madam. Here goes for the last rivet
00:32:54That's all ready
00:32:56Now you ought to have a flag to put up on top that shows that the steel work is all
00:33:01completed
00:33:02I got one. I was wondering what it was for. Where is it?
00:33:08Oh, that's great
00:33:10Well, it's your building. You better put it up yourself. That's what I always do with all my buildings
00:33:18That's a boy
00:33:20That's a boy
00:33:22Hooray! Hooray!
00:33:25Hooray!
00:33:26Good evening
00:33:35I'm Joe Forziati
00:33:36I'm so glad to see you here. I'm Mrs. Howell
00:33:42I'm pleased to meet you
00:33:44How do you do? Did Jackie do that?
00:33:46What?
00:33:47No, the tie
00:33:50I guess I did that myself
00:33:58I guess I'm sunk
00:34:00How do you mean?
00:34:02Well, to tell you the truth, I can't tie one of these things
00:34:06Oh
00:34:16I didn't know there was so much romance in the building business
00:34:20It may seem like romance to you
00:34:23There's a lot of grief and hard work to us
00:34:27Perhaps distance, ladies and gentlemen
00:34:32Not always
00:34:51It's a beautiful view, isn't it?
00:35:03My whole life is tied up with that skyline
00:35:07I've built a lot of it myself
00:35:10You should be awfully proud of what you've accomplished
00:35:12What I don't understand
00:35:14Is how Mimi could invite a fellow like that
00:35:19It's perfectly simple
00:35:21Ladies
00:35:22Love Bruce
00:35:23Mrs. Howell
00:35:27Will you go to dinner with me some evening?
00:35:33Isn't this rather sudden, Mr. Pozziani?
00:35:38That's the only way I ever do things
00:35:41All of a sudden
00:35:51Thank you
00:35:53Thank you
00:36:09Thank you
00:36:10If you like me as much as you say you do
00:36:12You've cut out drinking so much
00:36:15Sweetie, you ought to know by now
00:36:16That the best thing you can do is keep me boiled all the time
00:36:21Nobody has to keep you boiled
00:36:27How do you do, Mr. Owl?
00:36:29Hello, Tommy
00:36:33I'm very, very sorry
00:36:35This table has been engaged
00:36:37I'm off to give you another one
00:36:39But we don't want another one
00:36:41Well, you see
00:36:42This room has been engaged by Mr. Pozziani
00:36:48He's got a lady coming to have dinner
00:36:51He wants to be proud
00:36:54You see
00:36:56I give you a nice little table inside
00:37:00Well, I think it's a nice big table outside
00:37:03All right, Tommy, all right, all right
00:37:06I thank you very, very much
00:37:08Well, this may be your idea of a large evening
00:37:11But it's not mine
00:37:17I'm going to do a little phoning
00:37:19And see if somebody isn't throwing a party somewhere
00:37:23I'm going to go upstairs
00:37:24All right, sweetie
00:37:25Go ahead
00:37:32Good evening, madame
00:37:34How many, please?
00:37:35I'm looking for Mr. Pozziani
00:37:36Is he here?
00:37:37Oh, Mr. Pozziani
00:37:38Right this way, madame
00:37:43Right this way
00:37:51This is the table, madame
00:37:54Mr. Pozziani
00:37:55He'll be here soon
00:37:59I go outside
00:38:01And I wait for Mr. Pozziani
00:38:03When he come, I bring him right in
00:38:05Thank you
00:38:05I'm so glad you come
00:38:08Look
00:38:18Mimi
00:38:31It is you, isn't it?
00:38:37You don't mind my sitting here, do you?
00:38:41After all, you are my wife
00:38:44I promised my lawyer not to speak to you
00:38:47Even on the telephone
00:38:50Until I've got the divorce
00:38:57Poor Spotty
00:38:59I'm sorry
00:39:01So am I
00:39:03For lots of things
00:39:14You know you look different somehow
00:39:18I am different
00:39:21I've been stepping out a bit myself
00:39:24Feeling my freedom
00:39:26With Joe Pozziani?
00:39:28Oh, not always
00:39:29I just happened to be dining with him tonight
00:39:32Oh, I'll be careful, Mimi
00:39:35I don't know whether I should be careful
00:39:38In all the nine years we were married
00:39:41I never did one thing I knew you wouldn't want me to do
00:39:45And I did lots of things I didn't want to
00:39:48To please you
00:39:52That didn't work out so well, did it?
00:39:55No
00:39:56No
00:39:59You'd better go now
00:40:02May I, uh
00:40:05May I see Jackie sometime?
00:40:07Of course, Dwight
00:40:08Anytime at all
00:40:10Even if it is against my lawyer's orders
00:40:13I'll drop in and see him tomorrow
00:40:15If I may
00:40:16I'll tell the news
00:40:18Goodbye, Mimi
00:40:28You're looking perfectly lovely
00:40:56Good evening, Mrs. Howell
00:40:57Good evening, Mr. Pozziani
00:40:59Good evening, Mr. Pozziani
00:41:00Good evening, Mr. Pozziani
00:41:00I'm sorry about that
00:41:02But it kinda shows that I was in a hurry to see you, doesn't it?
00:41:10But honest, Mrs. Howell, I...
00:41:12I'm sorry for that
00:41:14I had to take a taxi
00:41:16You know, my chauffeur quit his job all of a sudden
00:41:20I...
00:41:21I guess I wasn't ritzy enough for him
00:41:25Well, here's to crime
00:41:29There I go again
00:41:30I guess I shouldn't have said that either
00:41:33Why not?
00:41:36When I said here's to crime, I...
00:41:37I guess you were thinking about me being brought up with a lot of tough guys
00:41:41Having all those mix-ups with that Mendino gang
00:41:45Almost killing a guy once myself
00:41:51I'd do it yet
00:41:53For you
00:41:55There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do for you
00:42:00You shouldn't talk like that, really
00:42:06I wish you'd give me a chance sometime to show you how far I'd go to make you happy
00:42:12And to keep you happy
00:42:18I beg your pardon, Mr. Pozziani
00:42:20But madame wanted out on the telephone
00:42:22Oh!
00:42:24I have the call connected through in your office, Tony
00:42:26Oh, I already done that!
00:42:28I'll be right to this way, madame
00:42:35Come on, Flats, let's eat
00:42:41Hello, waiter
00:42:42We want a good table for two
00:42:44I'm sorry, Mr. Mendino
00:42:45But we ain't got anything at first
00:42:47I'll try and...
00:42:48Don't give me that!
00:42:49Where's Tony? He'll fix it
00:42:51Hello, Mr. Mendino
00:42:53Hello, Tony!
00:42:54Say, what's this funk your waiter's telling me about there's no table for me?
00:42:58Well, we saw we open up
00:43:00But if you waited just to...
00:43:01What's the matter with the private room?
00:43:03What's up to buy?
00:43:05Mr. Forziati is in service
00:43:08Mr. Forziati
00:43:09Well, maybe Mr. Forziati will be kind enough to share it with us
00:43:13Oh, you can go in there, please
00:43:15You think you're big enough to keep me out, Tony?
00:43:18Ha! Put another table in there, there's lots of room
00:43:21Joe Forziati ain't president yet
00:43:23Please, yes!
00:43:24All right, all right
00:43:26Since when has Joe Forziati got so important
00:43:28That people can't stay in the same room with him and watch him eat?
00:43:31Just knowing that a mug like you is in the same part of town
00:43:35Would give me indigestion
00:43:37You and me ain't through yet, Joe
00:43:39Right now, maybe you put a crimp in my protective association
00:43:43But the jury's still out on that
00:43:46Yeah
00:43:46Yeah
00:43:48And I'm staying here till I feel like leaving
00:43:50Go ahead and put me on
00:43:54That ought not be so hard
00:43:56No, ma'am
00:43:58Oh, Mrs. Howell
00:44:00I want you to meet a couple of friends of mine
00:44:04Uh, this is, uh, Mr. Mendino
00:44:11How do you do?
00:44:13And this one goes by the name, uh, Slattery
00:44:23Come around sometime again when you've got some more funny stories to tell
00:44:28Oh, I had one
00:44:29I guess it'll keep
00:44:47I'm sorry, but I have to go
00:44:50Go?
00:44:52Yes, that was the nurse on the phone
00:44:54She says Jackie's a little feverish and wants me to come right on home
00:44:58Can't you wait until after you eat?
00:45:02I told her to tell him I would come right away
00:45:05I must go
00:45:09All right
00:45:11If you're nervous about him
00:45:13We'll go right away
00:45:16I'll take you in my car
00:45:21Waiter, tell the doorman
00:45:23Hmm
00:45:25That's a hot one
00:45:26Me offering to take you in my car
00:45:28I forgot I haven't got a chauffeur
00:45:30I haven't got a car
00:45:32I have my own car
00:45:33We'll go in that
00:45:35Oh, you've ordered such a lovely dinner
00:45:37It would be a shame for you not to stay and have it
00:45:41But I ain't hungry
00:45:44Now
00:45:47We'll go in your car
00:45:57We ain't got a chauffeur
00:45:59But we got a table
00:46:00Come on
00:46:03Here
00:46:04But gentlemen, this
00:46:05All right, all right
00:46:08Bring us everything he ordered
00:46:10That's good enough for us, ain't it?
00:46:12You said it, Mike
00:46:13Everything
00:46:14All right
00:46:15What?
00:46:20So, the poor guy
00:46:22He ain't got a chauffeur, huh?
00:46:27Look and see if Slip Bardone's still out there
00:46:30Okay
00:46:39Wait
00:46:41What you going on?
00:46:42Don't get excited
00:46:43We're going to do the evening
00:46:46And you can send a check to Porziati
00:46:49It's very simple
00:46:50It's okay, ain't it?
00:46:52It's all right
00:46:54It's all right
00:46:55It's all right
00:46:57It's all right
00:46:59It's all right
00:46:59It's all right
00:47:04It's all right
00:47:05It's all right
00:47:08It's all right
00:47:08It's all right
00:47:09You were driving the car when you got in that
00:47:11Kidnapping trouble, wasn't you?
00:47:13Yeah
00:47:14Yeah
00:47:16Well, who kept you out of sinks then?
00:47:18Well, you did, Mr. Mendino
00:47:20Don't think I'll ever forget it
00:47:22Well, Joe Forziati needs a chauffeur
00:47:27Now you snap into it and get that job
00:47:30Before somebody beats you to it
00:47:32Sure, Mr. Mendino
00:47:35I'd like to work for Joe Forziati
00:47:38Joe Forziati will be paying your wages
00:47:41But you'll be working for me
00:47:43Now go on
00:47:58You know, it's a whole lot harder to put that thing together than it looks
00:48:01I thought I was never going to be able to put that flag up on top
00:48:06Oh, what's the flag for?
00:48:07You always put that on top of a building when all the steel work's finished
00:48:11You do?
00:48:12Mr. Forziati told me so
00:48:14And he knows
00:48:17Still here, Dwight?
00:48:20I got so interested working on this silly thing with Jackie, I didn't notice the time
00:48:24Look, Mother, we built a skyscraper
00:48:27And we got an elevator in it, too
00:48:29And nobody helped us either
00:48:31That's splendid
00:48:32Now it's time to go with Lena, darling
00:48:33I'm Jackie, you must rest before dinner
00:48:36Goodbye, Daddy
00:48:37Goodbye, son
00:48:38We had a nice long walk in the park, didn't we?
00:48:40And I hope we have another one soon
00:48:42Ha-ha, so do I
00:48:59I'd ask you to say a T, but I'm expecting Mr. Forziati
00:49:05You're being very foolish, Mimi
00:49:09Am I?
00:49:10Certainly
00:49:13Well, what can you possibly see in a man like Forziati?
00:49:20It's the same thing I saw in you, I suppose
00:49:23You were in love with me once
00:49:26And I do like having someone in love with me
00:49:31Every woman does
00:49:35Well, what's going to be the end of this?
00:49:38I don't know
00:49:40That's what makes it rather interesting to wake up in the morning again
00:49:44Very interesting for you, perhaps
00:49:46What about Jackie? Have you thought of him?
00:49:48Is it fair to him to take him out of the world that he belongs in into Forziati's world?
00:49:57Is there nothing I could say that would make you change your mind?
00:50:02What is there more to say?
00:50:07Nothing, I suppose
00:50:16Mr. Forziati
00:50:18Hello, Howell
00:50:19Hello, come on in, Mr. Forziati
00:50:21I don't believe you've met Mr. Howell
00:50:23Please admit you, Mr. Howell
00:50:25Pardon my glove
00:50:27How do you do?
00:50:29I'm afraid I'll have to be going now, Mimi
00:50:32Goodbye, Mr. Forziati
00:50:33Goodbye, wife
00:50:43Don't he know the thing to do is to act like a gentleman when a lady's prison
00:50:48I'm no lady, Joe
00:50:49I'm only his wife
00:50:52Please don't let it bother you
00:51:05I haven't done anything that a gentleman wouldn't have done
00:51:09I wouldn't have come near you
00:51:11If you'd have been living with him as his wife
00:51:15You old fashioned, Joe
00:51:17Don't you know it doesn't matter whose wife anyone goes near these days?
00:51:22It would to me
00:51:25I'd suck any man who'd come near the woman I love
00:51:34I'm afraid Dwight would have too many women to defend
00:51:44We're not children, Joe
00:51:46Things don't just stand still
00:51:50Men and women don't just sit and look at each other over restaurants
00:51:53At our tables for years
00:51:57People are already saying things about us that aren't true
00:52:10If I'm out of order, you can put me right back in line
00:52:16I think the way out is for you to marry me
00:52:22I've thought about that too, Joe
00:52:26I think I like you as much as anyone I've ever known
00:52:35But marriage...
00:52:38I don't understand
00:52:41You say that you care for me?
00:52:43I do care for you, Joe
00:52:46Well, that's all that matters
00:52:49Well, that's all that matters
00:53:00It isn't us, Joe
00:53:04Don't you understand?
00:53:07There are other feelings to consider besides our own
00:53:13There's Jackie
00:53:15I'd do anything in the world for that kid
00:53:20There's really nothing you could do for him
00:53:24You're not what he needs
00:53:28Oh, I see
00:53:32He needs a father, but...
00:53:34Not my kind, is that it?
00:53:43Joe...
00:53:49Maybe you were right
00:53:50I don't understand
00:53:53But all my life, if I've wanted anything bad enough
00:53:56And felt that it was right for me to have it
00:54:00Joe...
00:54:16I'm sorry, I promise I'll...
00:54:19Oh, what good I promise
00:54:20Don't you understand?
00:54:22I can never marry you
00:54:23Never!
00:54:24I'll do anything you ask
00:54:26Oh, no
00:54:28You must go right now and never come back
00:54:32You mean...
00:54:33Please!
00:54:34Please, go!
00:54:40All right, I'll go
00:54:43And I'll try to stay away
00:54:46But someday I hope there'll be something you'll want me for
00:54:50And you'll send for me
00:54:54And I'll be waiting
00:55:33You cannot go on like this, Joe
00:55:37You are my boy
00:55:39And whatever...
00:55:41You cannot go on like this, Joe
00:55:41It hurts to you
00:55:43It hurts to me, too
00:55:56It's funny what a mother will do for her boy
00:56:04It's her boy that's keeping us apart
00:56:19She said I couldn't do anything for her boy
00:56:42Smith!
00:56:43Come in here
00:56:50Sit down
00:57:01I got a chance for you to make some do for yourself if you want to
00:57:05Whenever you say a thing like that to me
00:57:06You never have to add, if you want to
00:57:11You and me is going to get along
00:57:15All I want you to do is to
00:57:18Sort of persuade a certain kid
00:57:21Whose name I'll give you
00:57:22To spend a couple of nights away from his parents
00:57:27Do you get me?
00:57:29Not me!
00:57:31You don't get the idea
00:57:32This thing's not supposed to be on the level
00:57:34I don't want that kid frightened or harmed or anything
00:57:37It's supposed to be a lock for him
00:57:42All I want is a chance to give him back to his mother
00:57:47At the right time
00:57:50What do you say?
00:57:54I don't like it
00:57:56But I say yes
00:57:58Add up boy, I'll take care of everything
00:58:04Come here
00:58:09X-ray, X-ray, X-ray, a million-dollar baby to see us!
00:58:13X-ray, X-ray, a million-dollar baby to see us!
00:58:16X-ray!
00:58:21Mike, any news?
00:58:24Nothing definite.
00:58:25Oh, I can't stand this waiting any longer.
00:58:29Call the police and the papers and the hospitals.
00:58:32Call them, call them again.
00:58:33Oh, me, me, no.
00:58:36You got him safe?
00:58:38He's safe, all right.
00:58:41Nothing's going to happen to him, you understand that?
00:58:43It's just supposed to be a holiday to him.
00:58:46There ain't a chance of anything happening to him.
00:58:49And he's being taken good care of.
00:58:51Listen, Mr. Forziati.
00:58:53I'll take you to him and show you any time you say the word.
00:58:57No.
00:58:59No, no.
00:59:02Not now.
00:59:05You better wait outside where I can get you when I want you.
00:59:09Okay.
00:59:12What does it mean?
00:59:15Oh, I'm looking for a number.
00:59:16Who?
00:59:18Joe Forziati.
00:59:19Oh, the client has not seen him before.
00:59:21He knows everyone in the underworld.
00:59:23He'll do everything he can to help us.
00:59:36Hello, hello.
00:59:37Hello, Joe.
00:59:39Yes, Mimi.
00:59:41Joe.
00:59:42Have you heard?
00:59:44I read the papers.
00:59:45I was coming to see you.
00:59:47See if I couldn't help.
00:59:48Oh, Joe, if you can find him.
00:59:51Find my baby.
00:59:53Don't you worry anymore about your boy.
00:59:55I'll find him if I have to turn New York upside down.
01:00:02I know you will.
01:00:05And Joe, please forgive me.
01:00:09Forgive me for everything I've done.
01:00:14Find my boy and I'll be willing.
01:00:16I'll marry you, Joe.
01:00:21Just find him.
01:00:23Find him.
01:00:25Find him.
01:00:26Find him.
01:00:28Find him.
01:00:31Find him.
01:00:40Find him.
01:00:46Find him.
01:00:48Find him.
01:00:48Find him.
01:00:49Find him.
01:00:50Find him.
01:00:51Find him.
01:00:52Find him.
01:00:52Find him.
01:00:54Find him.
01:00:56Find him.
01:00:56Find him.
01:00:57Find him.
01:00:59Up here!
01:01:07Where's the light in here, Cliff?
01:01:10Cliff!
01:01:13Cliff!
01:01:14What's the matter?
01:01:23Hello, Joe.
01:01:25Pardon me.
01:01:26I mean, Mr. Farsiati.
01:01:29If you'll pardon the mystery.
01:01:35So you're in this house.
01:01:37Where's the boy?
01:01:38Not so fast.
01:01:41We've got a few things to fix up, you and me.
01:01:57That's all the money I've got with me now.
01:02:00If you'll get more, I'll pay you anything you want.
01:02:06Only turn over that boy.
01:02:09We don't want your money.
01:02:11We are going to take it, the we.
01:02:16Now, I beg your pardon.
01:02:20These gentlemen and this lady are friends of mine.
01:02:25I should have introduced you earlier.
01:02:28I'm so sorry.
01:02:31What's your proposition?
01:02:34Tell him, Mike.
01:02:35You and him are such good friends.
01:02:39What is this?
01:02:42Are you just trying to have a little bit of fun with me?
01:02:46Sure!
01:02:48We're just trying to have a little fun with you.
01:02:51Maybe you won't laugh as hard as we do.
01:02:55We'll see.
01:02:58Sit down.
01:03:01Make him a kiss.
01:03:04Slip!
01:03:05Slip!
01:03:06Yes, Slip!
01:03:08This is gonna be funny!
01:03:27Get back there!
01:03:29Now listen, you.
01:03:30Not a move out of you,
01:03:32if you don't want any harm to come to that kid.
01:03:41Hello, Joey.
01:03:42Is that you, Pop?
01:03:44Yeah, this is...
01:03:46This is Pop.
01:03:49I can't come to you.
01:03:52Now, Joey.
01:03:55In a little while.
01:03:57Huh?
01:04:01Are you...
01:04:03Are you hurt, Pop?
01:04:06No, no, no, no.
01:04:09Pop ain't hurt?
01:04:11How are you, Joey?
01:04:14I'm all yours.
01:04:25Don't you be afraid, Joey.
01:04:29I'm scared, Pop.
01:04:37Now listen to me.
01:04:39We got two kids here.
01:04:42One's yours.
01:04:43The other's hers.
01:04:46You can have either one you choose.
01:04:50Without charge.
01:04:52You don't mean that, Mike.
01:04:54No.
01:04:56You'll see whether I mean it or not.
01:04:59You made me a little speech once,
01:05:01that I remembered.
01:05:03It was all about loyalty.
01:05:06I don't stick with my own.
01:05:09That's what you said.
01:05:11I don't stand up for them that's got a right to count on me.
01:05:16Well, here you are.
01:05:19You can take your boy out of here safe.
01:05:23Your boy.
01:05:25That's got a right to count on you.
01:05:30Or you can take that dame's kid with you.
01:05:33And do yourself all the good you were figuring on.
01:05:36With her.
01:05:43With her.
01:05:43It's up to you.
01:05:45You don't think you can put a proposition up to me like that
01:05:48and get away with it, do you?
01:05:49We're putting it up there.
01:05:50We'll take a chance on getting away with it.
01:05:56Whichever kid you don't take
01:05:59goes with
01:06:02these people.
01:06:05Never saw them before.
01:06:08And you'll never see them again.
01:06:11Don't like it, huh?
01:06:14Maybe you think I like it.
01:06:16When you had me down.
01:06:18And you turned the screws on me.
01:06:23You sure have gone to a lot of trouble to frame me.
01:06:27Trouble?
01:06:29No trouble at all.
01:06:31Mike wanted to see you sweating
01:06:33like you're sweating now.
01:06:36Take your time.
01:06:39But be sure you choose right.
01:06:42Think it over.
01:06:45I've done my thinking.
01:06:47Let me see my boy again.
01:06:53Cliff!
01:06:54Bring up the fuzzy out of here.
01:07:08Here I am, son.
01:07:10Right here.
01:07:17Gee, Pop.
01:07:20I knew you'd come and get me.
01:07:24I wasn't scared.
01:07:29Can we go now, Pop?
01:07:33Not now, son.
01:07:36In a minute, huh?
01:07:43Can I take this thing off?
01:07:47No.
01:07:52It don't hurt you, does it?
01:07:56No.
01:07:59But...
01:08:00What's wrong, Pop?
01:08:04I got a big favor to ask you, Julie.
01:08:08Pop's made a mistake.
01:08:11And somebody's got to pay for it.
01:08:14And it's fair that you and me should suffer for it.
01:08:19Than somebody...
01:08:21that wasn't in no way...
01:08:24to blame.
01:08:30All right, Pop.
01:08:33I want to do...
01:08:35what you want me to.
01:08:40I knew I could count on my boy.
01:08:57He'll stay.
01:09:04I'd like to have that other boy taken home...
01:09:08to his mother.
01:09:10And tell her that I sent him.
01:09:13Okay, Slats.
01:09:19If you double-cross me...
01:09:21No double-crossing!
01:09:22I got nothing against that kid.
01:09:25It's you I want.
01:09:27And I got you.
01:09:42Hey.
01:09:44You see that you keep that boy good and warm.
01:09:50You rat.
01:10:05You'll pay heavy for this.
01:10:08Maybe.
01:10:09If we pay, somebody else will pay first.
01:10:12We're going to pay.
01:10:14What are you getting at?
01:10:15You didn't think I was going out of here...
01:10:17and leave him behind, did you?
01:10:19No.
01:10:21I'm here.
01:10:22And I'm here.
01:10:22I haven't got a gun.
01:10:24And there's a chance you could do anything you want to...
01:10:26and lie yourselves clean.
01:10:29But there's not a chance in the world of me going out of here...
01:10:31and keeping my mouth shut...
01:10:33like you figured I'd have to.
01:10:36And leaving my boy here to pay for my mistakes.
01:10:39Hey, Mike.
01:10:40There ain't none of that heavy stuff in our contract.
01:10:43Give us our dough.
01:10:44We're beating it.
01:10:45I'll say we are.
01:10:46And we ain't going to get...
01:10:47Ah, shut up.
01:10:48There it is on the table.
01:10:49Take it and get out of here.
01:10:51Me and Slash will take care of this.
01:11:07How about?
01:11:08Yeah.
01:11:16Now.
01:11:18I guess it's your turn...
01:11:21to find out the...
01:11:22first thing.
01:11:23first order of business.
01:11:30You're pretty good at remembering my speeches, ain't you?
01:11:34Well, I'm going to tell you one...
01:11:35that you'll never forget.
01:11:40Look, son.
01:11:41I want you to get in there and hide...
01:11:43and wait until Pop comes back for you.
01:11:44Yes, Pop.
01:11:45Don't you slap!
01:11:47He can't get out of here.
01:11:51Take it easy.
01:11:54Open that door and let in a little light.
01:11:58I'll cover him.
01:12:33I'll cover him.
01:12:34Oh, my God.
01:12:35Go, face to the other man.
01:12:36No, no, no.
01:12:36Not me, please.
01:12:37Money.
01:12:37All the money.
01:12:37Yeah, cut him.
01:12:39No, no.
01:12:40Oh, sorry.
01:12:42Oh.
01:12:42Come on.
01:13:24Come on.
01:13:28Joey.
01:13:39Joey.
01:13:43Are you hurt?
01:13:45No, I'm not hurt.
01:13:52Gee, I'm glad you're all right.
01:13:58Hey, Pop.
01:13:59Yes?
01:14:01Did you give him a right cloth, like you taught me?
01:14:05I think I did, Joey.
01:14:13All right, hop aboard, and we'll go home.
01:14:18Well, gentlemen, I guess the meeting is adjourned.
01:14:25Mike, I sure have got a small collection of all your guns.
01:14:31Stop over the house sometime and have a good look at them.
01:14:54What do you do?
01:14:59There's a house.
01:15:00I was missing one.
01:15:02Hey, I have a good look at him.
01:15:03Don't forget the microphone and have a good look at him.
01:15:04Oh, sweetheart. Oh, darling. Oh, thank heaven you're safe.
01:15:09Watch out. You'll squeeze my cat.
01:15:11Daddy knew you would be safe and sound, son.
01:15:14Who brought you here, darling?
01:15:16Some of Mr. Forziati's dad.
01:15:18Joe Forziati. Oh, I knew he'd get you here to me.
01:15:23I'm hungry, and my cat's hungry, too.
01:15:26You can help me a little while later, mother.
01:15:29Did I understand you to say he was hungry?
01:15:31Yes, Ronald.
01:15:31Some supper, Ronald, and some champagne for the cat.
01:15:35Yes, come along, old fella.
01:15:41And Mimi.
01:15:45Yes, Dwight?
01:15:47Somehow, with Jackie coming back,
01:15:52couldn't we...
01:15:55couldn't we start all over again, you and I?
01:16:01No, Ronald, did Jackie get home all right?
01:16:05Yes, sir. They're in there, sir.
01:16:07I know they want to see you, sir.
01:16:13Oh, it would be wonderful, dear.
01:16:16But I can't.
01:16:19Why not?
01:16:22Joe Forziati kept his word.
01:16:25He got Jackie back for us.
01:16:28I must keep my word with him.
01:16:32I can't go back on him now.
01:16:35You wouldn't want me to.
01:16:42Good job.
01:16:44Good job, Lord.
01:16:47Did you get something to eat, sweetie?
01:16:49A little bit.
01:16:50Mimi's going to give me more.
01:16:53Daddy's glad to see you back home, son.
01:16:56I'm glad to see you back, too, Daddy.
01:17:03Joe.
01:17:05Joe Forziati.
01:17:11I...
01:17:13I can't tell you how I feel about this, Mr. Forziati.
01:17:20Don't mention it.
01:17:22Thank you, all precious.
01:17:23And you're going to bed right now.
01:17:27Will you take him, Dwight?
01:17:30But I will.
01:17:32Come along, old man.
01:17:35You can't know what it means to a father to have his son back.
01:17:40You're a real hero in this family.
01:17:43Good night, Mr. Forziati.
01:17:45Good night, son.
01:17:52How can I ever begin to thank you?
01:18:06I've been doing a lot of thinking since I've seen you last.
01:18:10And you were right.
01:18:12We don't belong together.
01:18:18If you want to, Joe, I'd try awfully hard.
01:18:24Trying wouldn't do it.
01:18:26And your boy, I couldn't do anything for him like his own father could.
01:18:33And that's where every boy belongs, with his own father.
01:18:40Goodbye.
01:18:42Goodbye, Joe.
01:18:45You're the finest man in the world, to me.
01:18:48Goodbye, Joe.
01:18:59Good night.
01:19:02Good night.
01:19:04you got on. You said it. And any time you hear anybody calling a vest a waistcoat,
01:19:10you punch them right in the nose. With that right cross? With that right cross.
01:19:15And the bottom button is supposed to be buttoned.
01:19:41And the bottom button is supposed to be buttoned.
