:56:00
Yeah, it'll do.
:56:02
But what do you expect?
Ain't I got 20 grand tied up in it?
:56:06
- Hello, Otero. How are you, baby?
- First-rate.
:56:09
Sit down, Joe.
:56:11
Sure I'm good enough to sit
in such a swell chair?
:56:13
Come on, now. Cut the comedy.
Sit down.
:56:19
Screw, Otero.
:56:21
- I want to talk with Joe private.
- Sure.
:56:24
See you later, Joe.
:56:26
- Cigar, Joe?
- No, thanks.
:56:30
Well, will you have a cocktail
or a dash of brandy?
:56:33
No.
:56:35
Well, it surprise
you to hear from me?
:56:38
Kind of.
:56:39
I thought it would be kind of nice
to have a little talk together...
:56:43
...like old times.
:56:45
Certainly is nice to see you, Rico.
:56:47
Especially like this.
:56:49
- You're looking good.
- You're looking good too, Joe.
:56:52
Living easy, kind of, huh?
:56:54
- Not that easy. Dancing's no cinch.
- Yeah, but you ain't complaining.
:56:59
- No. No, I ain't complaining.
- That's good.
:57:04
Yeah.
:57:06
Dancing's all right for a sideline.
:57:08
It gives you a swell front.
:57:10
But it ain't my idea of a man's game.
:57:13
What's the difference, Rico?
:57:15
As long as I ain't kicking,
why should you kick?
:57:18
Who's kicking?
:57:20
Only why should a young guy
like you be wasting his time?
:57:26
And I kind of took pride in you, Joe...
:57:30
...brought you into the gang,
pushed you ahead.
:57:32
But now you're getting to be a sissy.
:57:34
We got to go into that again?
Can't you just forget about me?
:57:37
I don't want to forget, Joe. You're my
pal. We started off together, didn't we?
:57:41
We've got to keep going along together.
:57:43
Who else do I got to give a hang about?
:57:45
I need you, Joe.
:57:47
I've got the biggest chance of my life.
:57:49
The Big Boy just handed me
the whole North Side...
:57:51
...but it's too much for one man
to handle alone. I need somebody.
:57:55
- A guy like you, somebody I can trust.
- Can't be me, Rico.
:57:58
I've quit.
