:29:11
Serenade to a heel.
:29:13
Alias Tommy Drake.
:29:16
Do you always feel so light-hearted
about murder?
:29:19
With Drake, that bullet
was an improvement.
:29:22
- Solid.
- Who are you?
:29:24
My name is Nick Charles.
:29:26
- Cop?
- Cop.
:29:28
We got a pass from the inspector.
We had to get our instruments.
:29:31
Let's go fellows. We're packing.
:29:34
The Constitution says a gate's got a right
to earn a livelihood.
:29:37
Well, we ain't so lively without our tools.
:29:40
Do you know anyone besides Brant...
:29:42
who might have been interested
in knocking Drake off?
:29:44
Try the phone book. You may find
a couple names on every page.
:29:47
Solid.
:29:57
Wait a minute. He was shot, remember?
:30:00
What were you doing in Brant's office
last night?
:30:02
- Me in Brant's office?
- You dropped one of those blades.
:30:08
Hold the phone.
:30:10
Every man who uses a reed, uses a blade.
:30:12
I ain't the only reedman in the band.
:30:14
That whacked-up Buddy Hollis
was in Brant's office last night.
:30:17
He was just trying to get his job back.
:30:20
Did Brant fire him?
:30:21
Drake fired him.
They had a battle over a dame.
:30:23
- He ain't gonna kill anybody over a dame.
- Well, he was in there.
:30:27
Where can I find this
whacked-up character?
:30:30
He's been bouncing around
from place to place lately.
:30:33
You'll probably dig him
in one of the jam joints.
:30:35
Come again?
:30:37
Dig him in one of the jam joints.
:30:40
Where the boys go after closing
and really ride.
:30:44
Just for cats and intellectuals.
:30:46
Rooty-toots and bobbysoxers verboten.
:30:49
Solid.
:30:50
I don't wear bobby socks,
but would you say I was a "rooty-toot"?
:30:55
Strictly.
:30:56
But, I guess I can ace you in.
:30:59
Considering the resemblance between
this blade and the one in Brant's office...
