:07:01
We were getting along so well out west.
:07:03
Plenty of work, small jumps,
a chance to save money.

:07:07
And the act always went over big.
:07:10
But here, nobody knows us.
:07:13
Oh, I'm afraid.
:07:15
Now don't lose your nerve, honey.
:07:17
But we haven't got much money.
:07:19
Oh, Hank, couldn't we go back,
just for one more year?

:07:22
Back to those opera houses
and town halls?

:07:25
Those cheap hotels
and their lobby comics?

:07:32
Cooking our own food...
:07:33
...washing our own clothes
and ironing them on mirrors.

:07:37
Riding in those smelly day-coaches.
:07:42
Going ragged all summer and then darn near
freezing in the winter. And why?

:07:47
Just to save money enough
to get to New York and show our act.

:07:51
Oh, honey.
:07:52
With your looks and my ability...
:07:57
I wouldn't steer you wrong.
:08:00
Now don't worry.
:08:02
You see that electric sign
of the fellow in BVDs?

:08:05
- Yeah.
- Well, right there...

:08:07
...they're gonna have
the Mahoney Sisters.

:08:09
- In BVDs?
- Yes, in BVD...

:08:13
Baby, they were plenty smart
when they made you beautiful.

:08:16
Come on, let's get cleaned up
before Eddie gets here.

:08:19
I'll run a tub for you.
:08:26
The Mahoney Sisters in BVDs.
:08:45
Hey, what are you singing?
:08:47
The bubble song from Lux.
:08:49
Will you join me?
:08:50
No use of us both getting wet.
:08:52
Will you wash mine?
:08:54
I might as well. You never wash
anything but your neck.
