Cab, lady?
No, thank you.
A free ride, sister.
Come on. Don't be bashful. Hop in.
My name is Joe Benton. What's yours?
Please take your hand away.
Oh come on, come on. Relax. You're only young once.
Take your hand away! ─ Hey.
What's the matter? Spring fever?
Oh, no .. he's not doing anything.
He's not? ─ No.
We are married. We are only fooling.
Yes sure, we're just clowning, Officer. That's all.
What a mistake I made.
I should have said I never saw you before in my whole life.
They'd put you in jail.
Where were you all afternoon?
Where?
I was out.
Tell me you were out. I know you were out. Where were you?
Your attitude is going to have to change, my dear fellow.
I just saw a moving picture where a husband knew how to treat his wife.
He trusted her. He had confidence in her and he never asked her any questions.
And they were very happy.
He still would be very happy.
Only one day he came home too early.
And she got caught.
Oh, Joe!
What are you trying to do?
Sorry buddy, but nothing is hurt. ─ You ought to be driving a push-cart.
Yeah, sure, sure.
This guy looking for trouble?
Nope.
Please Joe, come on.
Not a chance, boys. ─ You got a bad case of yellow fever.
Yeah, I'm going to see my doctor about it, Tuesday.
Come on, get going, get going. The whole lot of you.
Come on! ─ Better luck next time, boys.
Joe. They were trying to make a fight.
Oh, never mind that fake worry about me.
Where were you this afternoon? I want the truth now.
Well, if you must know.
I have another husband in The Bronx.
Well, I hope you tell him the truth, honey.
Because if there is one thing I can't stand, it's a liar.
Ow! Ouch!
Nice night, ain't it? ─ Swell, Carl.
Hello Mr and Mrs Turner. ─ Hello there.
Goodnight, Joe.
I don't feel so good today. ─ You don't, huh?
Everything is going wrong. And everything is going black.
Uhuh.
Well, what do you know about that? Unconscious.
Ah, the poor kid.
Doesn't know what's going on.
She's awful pretty.
Of course, she's not as pretty as that blond waitress I met today.
Oh boy .. there is a dish.
I guess a guy would have to have a lot of dough to take care of a girl like that.
If I only had a thousand dollars.
A thousand dollars.
A thousand dollars?
Well, that's just the amount my sweet little wife is insured for. A thousand ..
Oh Joe, Joe. You mustn't think thoughts like that, Joe.
Oh, but that beautiful blond waitress.
With those ..
Joe, you beast. No, you can't have ..
Oh, but that beautiful blond waitress.
Chop, chop. No, no. Yes, yes.
No, no, no. Yes, yes, yes. Yes, no, yes, no, yes.
Hey .. you're getting kind of heavy.
What blond waitress did you meet today?
You must weigh about 106 lbs unless my eyes deceive me.
And what does the blond waitress weigh?
Well, you weight 106 lbs.
I guess she weighs about 110 lbs.
With her clothes on.
What have you got to eat? ─ Go to the kitchen.
What you got? ─ Only food.
What you want? ─ Never mind what I want. What you got?
Never mind what I got. What do you want?
Don't tell me. ─ Please, go in the other room.
You are not kidding me, are you? ─ Only two minutes!
Stay in the other room.
Just so you're not kidding me. Ah .. meatballs.
Ah!
Why do you always spoil your dinner?
Honey, if ..
If you've ever wondered why a guy like me married a homely little dame like you.
It's because of the way you cook a meatball.
[ Italian language ]
What?
[ Italian language ]
Well.
If you want me to.
What's that for? ─ That's what you told me to do.
Joe!
Did Paul teach you that?
Hey, Joe!
Your brother is a very funny fellow. Very funny.
Joe! Hey!
Yeah, I've got it. Just a minute.
Joe, put your hat on.
Here I come.
Joe, the key isn't in the car.
What's the matter with your shoes?
[ Italian ]
Goodnight.
That greenhorn.
Sure?
What can you expect from a foreigner?
Back up, buddy. This is my fare. ─ Go on. Keep moving.
Close that door. You're not taking them any place.
We've started another one with the independent.
You'd better send the boys.
Go right in, Mr Beecher.
Hello John. Came down as quick as I could. ─ Hello.
That was quite a scrap last night. ─ Yes, I guess it was.
There have been a great many of them this month.
Well, we can't do more than we're doing.
Well, maybe we could do less.
There seem to be more fights than there ever were.
The boys only fight in self-defence.
Yes, that may be.
But where is the end to this?
The more of these ..
Strong-arm men you hire.
The more you anger the independents and the more fights there are.
To tell you the truth, I ..
I didn't know I was getting into all this.
I never had any trouble before.
Just the occasional fights one expects in our business.
Then you came to me and said you had an organisation that could eliminate them.
First thing I know you need ..
More men .. and more ..
I'm not trying to pick a fight with the independents.
There is room enough for all.
John.
I have a faint suspicion. Very faint, mind you.
That what you're trying to say is, you'd like to call a halt to my services.
Well ..
In a way, yes.
For my sake, I hope you're wrong and you need me back.
But for your sake, I certainly hope you're right.
Thank you.
And it's been a pleasure working for you, John. A great pleasure.
A tough break, Joe.
They ganged up on him. ─ Yeah.
Joe, we've been sitting here figuring what we can do about it.
There ain't much you can do.
I know what I'd do if I didn't have a wife and two kids.
Yeah? Well, I haven't got a wife and a couple of kids.
Take it easy. We've got no lawyer to bail you out of the jug.
Those fights are planned. I know they are.
There is always ten of them to one of us.
And I've got a way to fix it.
What are you going to do, Paul?
I'm going to work for the Comet Cab Company.
When the telephone rings, run for it.
Then you will know where they are ganging up on us next.
Now wait a minute, Paul. You are sticking your neck out.
We can't just sit here crying about it.
No, Joe. I am going to do it.
If we won't fight for our living, pretty soon .. we won't have any.
That's the set up. Unless we get an angle, we're through here.
I thought this was going to last all summer.
We're not out yet. Stop squawking and think of something.
How about those laundries in Chicago?
No. Nothing there.
This is our only spot.
Has an Andrews got a kid in High School?
That's great, stupid. Tangle with the government.
How about a couple or more smash-ups?
Sure, a couple or more scraps. ─ That's it. We'll do it right.
That's how we got this layout, isn't it?
We make the trouble for them. And then get the other side to stop it.
No, that won't do it this time.
Hello.
Yeah.
For you.
Yes?
This fellow is going to get a job with us. His name is Paul Roya.
R, O, Y, A.
Yeah.
Okay.
And when I come in, you turn out the lights. ─ Okay.
Now that's what I call a swell-looking cake.
Do you need any help?
Lola.
I asked you to stay in there with the other dames and wait for me.
Now, please.
[ Door bell ]
Oh, I'm the door man.
Oh, what do you want? This is a private party.
Hello, Joe .. good to see you.
Another birthday, eh? ─ Yes.
How old are you now, anyway? Let's see.
Forty-six.
I don't know what you tell Joe, but you are forty-six.
There is nothing to it. ─ We should have thought of it before.
Sure. ─ Yeah.
Alright, everybody. Stay right where you are.
It's ..
It's beautiful.
Isn't it, Joe?
What's that?
Who's "Mary"?
They had it left over. I got it a buck cheaper.
That's my Mike.
But does it matter? It tastes just the same.
Yeah, cut it, Anna.
[ Radio music playing ]
Listen.
That's in this room.
I thought the money would be for the new tyre.
Well, Paul is always driving around on three wheels anyway.
[ Singing ] "Happy birthday to you."
"Happy birthday dear Anna."
"Happy birthday to you."
I'm so ashamed.
Speech, Anna. Come on!
In my country.
When a little girl is born.
Her mother and father go to church and pray.
That she will be a bambino che ha quattro benedizioni.
Quattro benedizioni is the same for a woman.
Who has the four blessings.
The first is a "good husband".
He isn't very good.
But he is a husband.
The second is "good friends".
I am very lucky.
The third is .. "a good home".
I never thought I would have a beautiful home like this.
And the fourth, to a woman ..
Is the most important.
"A baby."
I knew it! I told you all the time.
Congratulations!
That's fine, fine. Go right ahead. Don't mind me.
I don't deserve any of the credit.
Get the cigars from her, too. ─ Okay, Joe.
[ Italian language ]
I don't care what you say. We've got to get married.
Yeah.
Well, I've got to go to work. ─ Oh, stick around.
Goodbye, Paul.
You know, Joe .. I feel pretty good.
It is the first time I am going to be an uncle.
Well, you never can tell. Maybe it will be a girl. Then you'll be an aunt.
That's right .. what?
Watch yourself, Paul. ─ Okay, Joe.
Come on everybody, let's dance. ─ Yeah, let's dance.
Come on home, I'm tired and you've had enough.
Goodnight. It was swell.
Goodnight, Anna. ─ Goodnight.
I'm glad I'm not working tonight, boys.
Paul left his raincoat here. ─ I'll drop it off at the Common Garage.
It's only a couple of blocks out of the way.
Common Garage?
What is he doing at the Common Garage?
Oh, it's nothing darling. Just a little scheme. I'll tell you all about it later.
Just wait a moment.
Goodnight, Joe. Goodnight, Jim.
Hey, you go right by there don't you, Buddy? You drop it off.
Sure. Okay.
Goodnight, Joe.
Goodnight, Anna! ─ Goodnight.
I'm going to take it, Anna. ─ Oh, thank you.
That's alright. Goodnight. ─ Goodnight.
Goodnight, Buddy.
Glad you married me?
I don't know.
If it wasn't you, it would have been someone else.
Ah, I bet nobody ever asked you to marry them.
Yes, someone asked me to marry him.
Who? Come on, tell me quick, without thinking.
Räpushnik. ─ Who?
John Räpushnik.
He had eleven children.
And a cow.
It was such a tired cow.
And he never wore shoes.
He couldn't get used to it.
We have to clean up here.
Oh, I'm so tired.
I get it. Everything is going black. ─ Hmm. Everything is going to blackness.
Yeah.
You go to sleep. I'll clean up.
Say, what's he doing over there?
He's got a box with him.
Where you go, Mack?
I want to leave a package here for your driver Paul Roya.
Leave it in the locker room.
No box now. ─ Yeah.
He'll be up here in a minute.
[ Door knocks ]
What were you doing down there?
Paul's sister asked me to bring him a raincoat.
I couldn't do nothing about it. It was in front of a lot of people.
He's here now. He's just pulling in.
Number 540 in. ─ 540.
Yep.
Looks like we'll be working for the Comet Cab Company for a long time.
Hey, wait a minute.
I didn't know you guys were going to do anything like this.
What did you want to that for? Now, we'll all get in trouble.
Keep your trap shut.
Keep your trap shut!
Looks like that box with the raincoat in it might come in handy.
She asked me if I'd take the package over to the garage.
It was raining, and I took it over. That's all I know about it.
Did you look in the package she gave you?
No, sir.
She said it was a raincoat.
What's the matter with you, Buddy? You know it was a raincoat.
You're making them think it wasn't.
I didn't say it wasn't a raincoat.
Did you see her wrap the package?
No, sir.
I can't imagine why you'd want to put a raincoat in a box.
I put a sweater in it, too. I didn't want to get it wet.
Why didn't you wrap the sweater in the raincoat?
I don't know.
I didn't think of it.
What did your brother do in the old country?
He worked in a factory.
Around machinery? ─ Don't answer him.
She don't have to answer all these questions.
Well, I'll tell you this much young lady.
You are in serious trouble.
The best thing you can do is to tell me as much as you know.
That's no way to handle her.
Why did your brother go to the garage?
What do I care about garages?
My brother.
So, you're not sorry about what he did? ─ No, no!
No. No, you're not.
Please leave me alone!
Come on, come on. ─ Get your hands off her.
You're all under arrest. I'm going to prosecute every one of these men.
This girl isn't alone in this.
Just take it easy.
I demand that you hold every single one of these people.
Clear out, all of you. We'll send for you, if we want you.
Those people are going to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
If this is the way you protect the rights of the people of this city ..
I'll have a special prosecutor appointed.
How do you like that, Mr District Attorney?
A big, civic-minded guy.
Worrying about the citizens of New York.
A trial lasting six months. Spread on the front page of every newspaper in town.
That's all he's after.
It's nothing but a publicity stunt to him.
The girl is the only one there is a case against.
If you indict the girl, he'll get the Grand Jury to throw the others in.
You don't think those 40 men are in it do you?
No, I don't. ─ I'll tell you something.
I don't even know if the girl is guilty.
But I'll bet the jury pins it on her. They got to pin it on somebody.
Well, maybe you can think of something in a couple of days. Now, let's see.
The girl is an alien. ─ She an alien.
Are you sure?
She won't be a citizen for six weeks yet. ─ Manna from heaven. We've got him.
We don't let him railroad those 40 men into a trial.
And we get that girl out of the country. ─ What for?
What for? Without her, there isn't any kind of a case.
Say, that's it. ─ You bet that's it.
I'd like to see the look on his face when he finds that girl is out of the country.
Won't you go in? ─ No, thank you.
Are you friends of the family? ─ No. We're not.
Are you looking for somebody here?
It's okay .. we'll wait until after the service.
Is your name Anna Benton?
Yes. ─ You'll have to come with us.
Well ..
Well, why? What has she done?
We wouldn't know about that, buddy. We were just told to pick her up.
What do they want her for?
I think they are going to send her out of the country.
Joe.
Joe, they want to send me away.
They are not going to send you anywhere.
Don't let yourself in for a lot of trouble, Mack.
It's our job to take her, and you know we're going to do it.
Don't stick your chin out. There's nothing you can do about it.
Come on.
I won't ..
What did you expect to happen, sister?
No, no. Joe .. don't let them!
Anna.
[ Door knocks ]
Answer it, Pop.
Who's there? ─ Joe.
Joe.
Can they do what they said?
Tell me.
I guess they can, honey.
It's a low, dirty trick.
How can they deport her if she's married to you?
That makes her a citizen, doesn't it?
You got to be here three years, even if you're married.
Well, you've been here three years. Sure you have.
There is six weeks yet.
They're not going to take you any place, Anna.
You know what I'll do with you? I'll hide you out for a couple of months.
Yeah? Sure, that's the thing to do.
We could do that easy.
Do you think you could do that?
Sure we can do it. I'll take you up town somewhere.
Why, it will work out fine.
You'll take her no place. Who'll take care of her?
She stays with us. ─ Thing is, to keep moving her around.
After she stays with you, she stays with us.
Then Mary and Peggy.
Wait a minute. There's no need for you to get mixed up in it.
That's our business. What are friends for?
I'll look up all the boys tonight.
We'll make them dizzy looking for you, Annie.
I'm afraid for you.
Toby .. where's the oil?
Hello boys. How's business?
Fine. How's your business? ─ Not bad.
Fine.
Well, we'll be seeing you.
Oh, wait a minute, boys. No hurry.
We were reading on up some of the law this morning.
It's very interesting. ─ Yeah.
It seems that for "obstructing justice", it's from three to five years.
Isn't it? ─ Uhuh.
Well, can you imagine that?
You fellahs now Anna Benton, don't you?
Uhuh. ─ Where is she?
She works over at Whitey's Beanery on 8th Avenue.
She's a swell cook.
For a coloured girl.
Do you like beans?
Fred .. I think he's a detective.
Follow that cab.
Hurry up. Give us a little speed.
Why? What's the matter? ─ Come on, get going.
Has there been a hold-up or something? ─ Come on, will you. Get moving. Come on.
Say buddy, are you a "G" man?
Excuse me, that will be twenty cents, please.
[ Rapping on window ]
[ Rapping on window, Loud! ]
What do you want?
I was just walking up and down the fire-escape and I thought I'd drop in.
I'm pretty busy right now. I'm entertaining some guests.
If you could come back another time.
Tomorrow, maybe.
Shush.
You'll wake the Sloanes. ─ Get back in bed.
I thought you were not going to be here tonight.
I couldn't get to sleep. ─ Why couldn't you get to sleep?
Were you lonely? ─ No.
I couldn't go to sleep because when I got to bed, what do you think I found there?
What? ─ The coffee pot.
Oh, my ..
What must the house look like by now?
Yeah, I'd looked all over the place for the coffee pot.
I never figured I'd find it in the bed. Give us a lick, will you?
No.
Well honey, I got it. ─ Shush.
You'll wake up the Sloanes.
I got the name for the kid.
I was driving around yesterday afternoon and it came to me just like that.
The baby is going to be named after my grandparents.
Please Joe. Do that for me.
Really, it's so important to me.
Well, I don't know. What's her name?
Frances.
Frances?
Frances .. Frances.
Frances Benton, Frances Benton.
Frances Benton.
It don't kill me.
You'll get used to it.
It's my grandmother's name. She was a wonderful woman.
Your grandmother? ─ Uhuh.
What do you figure then? The baby's going to be a girl?
Joe ..nobody can tell.
I can tell. I'm telling you. It's got to be a boy.
But Joe, nobody can be sure of that.
It's got to be a boy, or call everything off. Stop everything!
Shush .. you'll wake up the Sloanes.
This is a fine time to pull this on me. I tell you it has to be a boy. I promised.
What do you mean, you promised?
Who did you promise?
I promised the gang. I told them it was going to be a boy.
You can't .. this will make me look like two cents.
Now look, it's going to be a boy, see. Get it? And his name is "Joe".
Who says so? ─ I say so.
It's going to be a girl and her name is "Frances". I say so.
Now you go home, and go to sleep!
I won't go to sleep until you promise me it's going to be a boy!
Promise him anything.
And let's all go to sleep.
I just wanted to tell you how happy I am with your work, boys.
I know you've only had a few weeks to find this girl and it's been tough.
It isn't an easy job like picking up some gunman.
Or a maniac full of hop.
After all, if you ..
If you caught this girl, she might scratch you up something terrible.
Now I don't want you men to think I'm finding fault with you.
You fellows are doing fine.
You're doing great.
You're wonderful.
You no-good, nut-headed apes.
Get out of here!
Come on, you're street cleaners, that's what you are.
We'll have the boy scouts making monkeys out of you.
Give me a bottle of milk.
A bottle of what? ─ Milk, stupid. Milk.
Grade "A".
We got a bottle of Grade "A" milk?
Yeah, we got one. ─ They want it.
We got company.
Hello, boys. ─ Hello.
Milk, huh?
Yeah.
Doctor's orders.
Do you ever drink any of this stuff?
No.
As far as I know, there was three of them. ─ Did you see them?
Sure. Then I went around the back of the house.
Did you recognise any of them?
Hello, Joe. ─ Hello, honey.
How come Mike missed you downstairs? ─ I came over the roof.
Hey, wait until you hear what happened to me today. Come in everybody while I wash.
I get picked up by two flat-feet today. Not one, but two, see.
They take me to a drug-store and telephone their Inspector. Very loud.
So I can hear. Right away I know it's phoney.
"Hello Chief" the guy says.
"We just picked up her husband. Yeah, yeah we'll bring him right over."
And he says "What's that? Oh, you've already picked up the wife, huh?"
"Well, well, well. And you got the people who've been hiding her out, too, huh?"
"Well, well, well, Okay chief."
Yeah. Then they both watched me.
You should have seen their faces. Tongues hanging down to here waiting for me react.
What did you do?
I put it on for them as they put it on for me.
I said "my poor wife. Where is she? I have not seen her for 3 weeks. where is she?"
What did they do?
Give me a kick in the pants and threw me out. What have we got to eat?
Boys.
What I want to tell you is very simple.
It also happens to be the truth.
Your Honour? ─ Yes?
It's started.
"I've been able to get the Cab Company to agree .."
"Not to prosecute."
All they want is the girl.
You fellahs hand over the girl ..
And I promise you.
The Mayor is behind me in this.
That you will all be in the clear.
If you don't give up the girl.
When she's found, and eventually she has to be found, you know.
All of you will have to suffer.
To the full extent of the law. And I'll tell you right now.
That what you're doing isn't going to help things any too much with you ..
When you go before a jury.
Now, don't be foolish about this, boys.
The Mayor is being more than fair.
And you know it.
I'll give you a minute to talk it over.
Well, I think that's done it, don't you John?
I hope so.
They ought to have their heads examined if they don't.
Trading them a girl for the whole forty.
They all left, boss.
Oh.
I thought they were still here.
What can you expect? Making deals with criminals.
Well, Robert.
Thanks, anyway.
That's just a sample of what I've been putting up with.
My goodness, I don't like that fellow.
Hey.
Hello, Benton. Visiting somebody?
A friend of yours lives in this house, don't he?
Yeah. Let's visit him.
Any friend of yours is a friend of ours.
This is it.
Let's walk right in.
We got a surprise.
Hi, Joe.
Who's your friends?
Where's that girl?
Eh?
How's that?
That girl that was here. Where is she?
Well ..
You'll .. you'll have to speak up.
You hear alright, don't you.
Come on.
Come on where? ─ Get going.
The Mayor just doesn't want to play anymore.
He's getting to be a regular old grouch.
No worries, Joe.
The boys will get some money together and bail you out.
Who will bail the boys out?
Come on, boys. Let's take a little walk.
Come on, come on.
[ Door knocks ]
I wonder who that can be? I'll bet it's Lola.
What do you want?
Get your hat and coat. ─ No, no.
He hasn't done anything.
It's alright, Mary.
Goodbye Tommy. Mind Mama.
Don't worry, dear.
Let me see.
Besides the grown-ups, there are eleven children.
You haven't counted Jim's father.
Oh, that makes twelve extra.
We've got enough money saved for months.
And even if there is another one to feed, I think we can manage it.
Anna .. why don't you go in the bedroom and lie down for a while?
I'm not tired. Honest, I'm not.
Any news? ─ What happened?
Fred got in a fight with some guards and they put him in solitary confinement.
They wouldn't let me see him.
They don't give him the same food as everybody else. Oh, I know he's hurt.
We went to see Mr Burke. ─ What did he say?
He said the trial would be in about six weeks and he's talked with other lawyers.
He's sure everything will come out alright.
Six weeks?
No. It can't be six weeks.
He mustn't stay in a place like that for six weeks.
Why not? What's the matter?
No, he mustn't!
The doctor's clinic said he had to go out West on account of his coughing.
He can't stay there for six weeks.
Oh honey, don't cry.
It may not be as long as that.
I'll bet the boys will be out in a month.
I'm sorry.
I ought to be ashamed of myself.
We've been figuring how much money we had.
We're not so bad off.
Six weeks. How many days is that?
Forty-two days.
Where are you going, Anna?
I'm going ..
I'm just going to lie down for a while. ─ Wouldn't you like some broth?
If we'll each take a dollar a day.
Well, how much would it come to if it was 8 cents a day?
Information.
Works. 21580.
You're welcome.
City Hall.
Mayor's Office? Thank you.
Hello?
Hello.
I want to speak to the Mayor please.
No. I want to speak to him personally, please.
I'm sorry. You'll have to give me your name and business.
Oh, I am sure he will listen to me.
If you only let me talk to him.
Tell him.
This is Anna Benton.
One moment, please.
It's Anna Benton. She wants to speak with the Mayor.
Anna Benton?
Put her on.
And trace the call on the other phone.
Why, Your Honour.
Anna Benton is on the phone. We're tracing the call.
Now if you can just stall her for a few moments.
It will give the Police a chance to get to her.
Hello?
Hello.
Is that ..
Your Honour?
Yes, this is the Mayor.
This is Anna Benton.
You said ..
If I could be sent away.
Nobody else would get in trouble.
Do you still say the same?
Yes .. in that case, they'll be no trial for the men.
Oh, yes.
Oh, thank you.
I'm in so much trouble.
I am so sorry.
I am ..
I am at a drug-store.
7th Avenue and .. 14th Street.
Thank you for listening to me.
Yes.
A Police car is on the way.
She at a drug store at 7th and 14th.
Just keep talking to her.
She'll be there.
We'll wait here, Joe.
Joey.
Let me know where you are as soon as you get over there, won't you.
Alright.
I'll be with you in a couple of weeks at the latest.
You will be?
Sure.
We can get maybe three or four hundred dollars for the cab.
You know, sell the furniture.
You are going to leave here?
Sure I'm going to leave here. What do you think?
What are you going to do for a living, huh?
What's the difference what I do?
I can do a lot of things. A million things I can do. I can do anything.
What?
Drive a taxi in a village where there are no shoes?
People much stronger than you, are working the whole day.
For a dollar a week.
Well, we can go there. This place ain't the only place in the whole world.
Joey.
You are going to stay here.
Maybe I can come back in a few years.
We are young, yet. It isn't as though our lives are over.
What are you trying to talk me into?
What's the matter?
I tell you, I'll be with you in a couple of weeks at the latest.
Let me know where you are as you get off the boat.
I don't want to hear any more about it.
Darling.
I wouldn't even tell you where I was.
I would never write to you anymore. You don't want that, do you?
Joey .. Joey.
Things are not going to be bad for me.
I'll be able to find a job pretty soon.
Everything will be alright. I know that.
Joey.
You make such a sour face.
Joe.
You don't want me to remember that face, do you?
Now go, darling.
Quick. Go.
Send me a picture of you and the kid.
Are those women going to be in there too?
Say ..
You think maybe I could get her a little better room by herself if I paid for it?
She can be changed after the boat sails. ─ How much would that cost?
I don't know. You'd have to arrange that with the Purser.
Okay. Thank you.
Any time before the boat sails will be alright.
I'll be back in time. Thanks.
Fellahs, I need some money, ─ I got about fifteen bucks, Joe.
I got forty bucks at home. I can get it in no time.
Thanks. I need more though.
I'll meet you here. The boys will chip in.
Come on. We'll dig up the rest together.
The girl is on the boat now. There is nothing else you can want me for.
I'd appreciate it if you let me have my money
I want to get out of here. ─ Where are you going?
I thought I'd go to Seattle.
Thanks very much.
Say, this is only two hundred.
How much is it to Seattle?
You promised me five hundred.
Beat it.
Listen, I need that money. I might not be able ..
Beat it!
I'm not afraid of you fellows.
I wrote a letter before I came here and if I don't get back, it's get mailed.
And you know who it gets mailed to.
Scram!
Hello, Joe. ─ Is Buddy in?
No he ain't .. is Buddy in any trouble?
Not that I know of. Why? ─ He was acting kind of funny.
He said if he wasn't back in a couple of hours ..
For me to go to his room and mail a letter .. that's on his dresser.
I wonder what they tried to do to him? Can we go up?
Sure.
Hi, fellahs.
You looking for something?
Wait a minute, Joe. Wait a minute, Joe Wait a minute.
I didn't know they were going to do what they did. I swear it, Joe.
Wait a minute, Joe. Wait a minute.
I swear I didn't know I was getting into it so deep, Joe.
I couldn't get out of it, Joe. They would have killed me.
I swear!
But do you know where he is?
I'm sorry, but the District Attorney is dining out.
Thanks.
I'm sorry, but His Honour is not at home.
Do you know where he is? Please, it's important.
I believe he's attending a sports dinner at Mr Jack Dempsey's restaurant.
Thanks, buddy.
He's at a banquet at Dempsey's.
Step on it, Mike.
Hey, hey. Where do think you're going there? Come on, get out. Get out or here.
This gathering of men.
Of chosen men.
Of champions .. of ..
Now go on, tell him.
Go on, tell him!
It was Beecher that blew up the garage.
He did and framed it so it would look like Paul Roya.
Then he had the watchman shoot him. ─ What?
That's the truth. He did it.
I didn't know nothing about it.
I was just getting information for him.
I swear that's all I did.
Your Honour, my wife's on that boat. They're going to send her away tonight.
We've got to get her off.
Well, I can't reach anyone until tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow will be too late, Your Honour. They're going to send her away tonight.
She can't make that trip alone. You've got to get her off that boat.
She's crowded in a little room with six other people and she's liable to get sick.
Your Honour, she's going to have a baby.
Is there something you can do, Your Honour?
Maybe if you could call up somebody or something? Something like that?
Or if .. there must be some way to get her off the boat.
If .. maybe if you went down there yourself, huh?
Everybody knows who you are. You're the Mayor.
You could get her off if you told them it was alright.
You could get her off alright.
Please will you, Your Honour?
Fellahs .. I don't want to bust up your party, but ..
Give me a break, will you, fellahs?
The Mayor could be back here in an hour, and you can have your party just the same.
It's alright with you if he goes, ain't it?
Come on.
Can you get me to Pier 43 in seven minutes?
Seven minutes? No, Your Honour.
Your Honour, let him drive. He can make it.
Oh boy!
Hey, wait a minute! Just a minute, there. I want to see the captain.
Are you passengers on this boat?
This is the Mayor, sailor. Go and get the captain.
Well, go and get him or we'll start searching this boat for dope.
Yes, sir.
Wow.
Hey .. take a look at that.
Five of them, huh?
Let's have some fun.
Okay .. you call the boys.
Here, listen .. I'll get my cab and I'll bust right into them.
I'll follow you.
Pier 43?
Right.
Pier 43, boys. Come on, we're going to have some fun.
You won to come, boss?
You want to see it? ─ Okay. What have we got to lose?
Anna.
Anna, honey. Honey.
You don't have to go.
Do you understand, Anna. You don't have to go.
We're not in trouble any more. Everything is alright.
Here's the Mayor. He's come to take you off the boat.
Joey.
Oh, Joey.
She says you'd better get a doctor. ─ A doctor?
What's the matter with her?
Well Dr Franklin is on board. He's the greatest baby specialist in the world.
Well, get him.
Get him. ─ Yes, sir.
And send for an ambulance.
I don't like it here. ─ Alright, Your Honour.
Quiet!
Quiet.
Call the 29th Precinct.
It will take them twenty minutes to get here.
This is very irregular.
Yes, Your Honour.
I could order this stopped if I had a memo from your office.
Yes, Your Honour.
You haven't a memo on you by any chance, have you?
No, Your Honour.
Send me one first thing in the morning.
Come on, boys.
Jack Dempsey.
Hey.
What is it? ─ Quiet.
What are you doing? ─ Maybe we can get some more.
He's the only Copper left.
How is this going, boss?
[ Baby crying sounds ]
It's a boy.
