:50:01
Talking's something you can't do
judiciously unless you keep in practice.
:50:07
Now, sir. We'll talk, if you like.
:50:09
I'll tell you right out. I'm a man who likes
talking to a man who likes to talk.
:50:13
Swell!
:50:14
Will we talk about the black bird?
:50:17
You're the man for me, sir.
:50:19
No beating about the bush.
Right to the point.
:50:21
Let's talk about the black bird,
by all means.
:50:24
First, answer me a question.
:50:25
Are you here
as Miss O'Shaughnessy's representative?
:50:28
There's nothing certain either way.
It depends.
:50:31
It depends on?
:50:33
Maybe it depends on Joel Cairo.
:50:35
Maybe.
:50:36
The question is which do you represent?
It'll be one or the other.
:50:39
I didn't say so.
:50:41
- Who else is it?
- There's me.
:50:46
That's wonderful, sir, wonderful.
:50:48
I do like a man who tells you right out
he's lookin' out for himself.
:50:51
Don't we all?
:50:52
I don't trust a man who says he's not.
:50:56
Now, let's talk about the black bird.
:50:58
Let's.
:51:00
Mr. Spade, have you any conception...
:51:02
...of how much money can be got
for that black bird?
:51:05
No.
:51:07
Well, sir, if I told you,
if I told you half, you'd call me a liar.
:51:11
No, not even if I thought so.
:51:12
But you tell me what it is,
and I'll figure out the profit.
:51:19
You mean, you don't know
what that bird is?
:51:21
I know what it's supposed to look like...
:51:23
...and I know the value in human life
you people put on it.
:51:26
She didn't tell you what it is?
:51:29
- Cairo didn't either?
- He offered me $10,000 for it.
:51:32
$10,000!
:51:34
Dollars, mind you, not even pounds!
:51:37
Do they know what that bird is?
What is your impression?
:51:40
There's not much to go by.
Cairo didn't say he did or he didn't.
:51:43
She said she didn't but I took it for granted
she was lying.
:51:46
Not an injudicious thing to do.
:51:50
If they don't know, I'm the only one
in the whole wide sweet world who does.
:51:54
Swell! When you've told me,
that'll make two of us.
:51:56
Mathematically correct, but I don't know
for certain that I'm going to tell you.
