:38:04
Excuse me, please.
:38:07
- l'll be right back.
- We'll expect you.
:38:09
He's nice-looking, isn't he?
l mean, for someone from the Patch.
:38:15
- Hello, Warren.
- Why, hello, son.
:38:17
- Mr. O'Leary.
-Jim-dandy place you've got here.
:38:21
- Thanks.
- Nothing like it in Chicago. l'm proud of you.
:38:25
- You mean, you're not sore?
- Why, no. l've come over to bury the hatchet.
:38:29
Live and let live--
that's my motto.
:38:32
- Come on. Have a drink.
- Matter of fact, l wanted
a word in private with you.
:38:36
- Sure. Come on in my office.
- See you in a minute, Rondo.
:38:39
Rondo, step up to the bar.
Anything you want, on the house.
:38:41
Thank you, Mr. O'Leary.
:38:44
- How old are you, son?
- Old enough to vote. Why?
:38:47
l was just thinking,
you've come along mighty fast.
:38:50
When l was your age,
do you know what l was doing?
:38:53
l was rounding up runaway slaves
and practically starving to death.
:38:57
- Sit down, Gil.
- Take it from me, times have changed.
:39:00
- Everything's youth today.
- Well, you seem to have done pretty well, Gil.
:39:04
l've managed, but you've got a great future
ahead of you. Mark my words.
:39:09
Well, l hope you're right.
:39:11
l don't blame you for taking Belle.
She's a great woman.
:39:15
l'd have married her if l'd had the chance,
but she never cared for me.
:39:20
- lt was just a business deal,
and y,ou outbid me.
- What's on your mind?
:39:23
What would you say, son, if l told you
l was gonna close The Hub, quit?
:39:29
l'd say you were up to something.
What is it?
:39:31
l'm thinking of
running for mayor.
:39:34
Mayor?
:39:36
l've been electing them
long enough.
:39:39
Now l'm going to elect myself,
if you'll ride along with me.
:39:42
- How do l come in?
- You're a smart young fella.
:39:46
lf you watch your step, you're going
to be a big power in this town.
:39:49
l could build a bigger place and give you
trouble, but l've had all l want of this.
:39:53
- You say the word, and l'm through.
- You close The Hub?
:39:57
Exactly, and give you
an open field.
